The County Commissioners.

Occasionally paragraph has appeared
in this paper relative to the amount Of
compensation drawn annually by the
County Commissioners. In order that
the people may know more about the
manner they have oi transactiDg business,
a few statutory provisions are incorporated
into this article. Section $40 provides:
There shall be four regular sessions of
the commissioners each year, in their
office at the county seat, commencing, re-
spectively, on the first Monday OF Marco,
June, September, and December, at each
of which meetings they shall transact
such business as is required OF them by
law"
Section S07 also provides:
Each county commissioner shall be
allowed three dollars Tor each day that he
is employed in his official duties. and five
cents per mile for his necessary travel
for each regular or called session, not ex-
ceeding one session each month, or twelve
sessions in any one yearh
Now for the fiscal year ending Septem-
ber LIST, Commissioner Fauver drew L.
036.05, Wallace 1,05745 and Phelon In
the same proportion OF the year served
Mr.. Phelon says he put in 2O6 days for
one inll year that he charged three dollars
per day for, and Travelled eight thousand
miles for which he is entitled TO FIVE cents
per mile, therefore it will be seen that the
three must have went TO each place in a
body or that each one was bound to be up
to the other in drawing compensation.
According to the bill filed the three must
have travelled fraction over twenty -four
thousand miles right here in Lorain
county, or an average of forty miles per
day for every dag charged up. If these
figures are correct II would not give them
much time 10 sit around the court house
II they had travelled one more thousand
miles the distance around the world
would have been equaled. Now we have
reason to believe that these gentlemen
used their best judgment and labored foI
the better interest of the tax payers dur
Ing the entire year, but 1t does seem tha
considering the good condition OF oul
bridges and other things that would re
quire their attention that the number o
miles travelled and the number of day
service might have been abridged liltl,
Let 1t be given trial Tor the presen
fiscal year and see II the people complain
of any dereliciion Of duty on the part of the
county commissioners.

SPEAKING of silver in volcanic de- posites the Scientific American says:
 The existence of silver in volcanic ashes is a rare occurance. Only in two cases have argentiferous ashes been met with. The first sample was obtain ed during an eruption of Cotopaxi, in July, 1885, in the ashes of which MT. J.W. Malet proved an existence of one part of silver in S3,OOO sparts of ashes. in the following year the same investi- gator was able to add a second instance. In January, 1886, violent eruption of Tunguragua, in the Andes of Ecuador, between 50 and D miles from CotOpaXi took place, the eruption continuing at longer or shorter intervals up to Novem- Der of the same year. The ashes thrown up by this volcano, which has been at rest for over a century, contained silver to the extent of one part Tn 107 200 parts of ashes. This appears, at first tune, to be only very small percentage of the metal. But when it is consider ed what enormous quantities of ashes are errupted, and what a vast extent Of area they cover after an eruption, the quantities of silver thrown up with them must be considerable.

Hints for Amateur Actresses.

To the ladies only a word or so. Avoid powder on your arms, especially in love scenes It is bound to come off or the lovers coat. It is pity to spoil the coat, and tits worse pity to detract the audiences attention from the scene to his misfortunes
 If you wear train be sure to make wide turns. A woman may manage her train charmingly in the ballroom, and yet find herself awkward about 1t on the stage
 Don't carry flowers or fans or hand kerchiefs or hats or dogs. unless the piece requires it, and unless you know just what you are to do with such arti- cles when you get on the stage-just when you are to get rid of then-or you will find yourself with both hands full at the very moment when the villain has to seize you by both wrists, etc.; or when you ought to throw your arms about your fathers neck you will find one hand engaged with an open parasol or something of the sort.
 To all of you-Dcn't try too hard to act" You will act all the better if you keep cool. and so don't get mixed about your lines and situations.
 One big rule for always-Play what ever part you are cast for earnestly and conscientiously. It isn't the part: it is the actor that makes a performance a good one or not Emma V Sheridan in Ladies Home Journal
