Seven Hundred Millions at the Mercy
Of Burglars.

WASHINGTON, April 14.-Treasurer
Huston, it is stated, has made some.
what startling discovery. He has ascer-
tained that the vaults of the Treasury ere
open to the assault of any three or four
expert cracksmen Who can overcome or
corrupt the guard kept there at night,
and that at least s7OO,O00,00O have prac.
tically for some time past been at the
mercy of any organized baud of expert
enced and daring bank burglars.
He has ascertained by actual expert.
ment that the main safe could be drilled
in seventeen seconds, and that hole
large enough to admit man could be
made in less than fifteen minutes.
The experts who accomplished these
results would have two hundred and
fifty millions of greenbacks within reach
when they got through. A hasty meet
ing of the House Committee on Appro.
priations was called to day, and it is said
steps we're taken to report to the House
a bill for an immediate appropriation to
procure new treasury vaults. In the
mean time the watch force will be
doubled at night, and every precaution
taken to insure the continued safe keep.
ing of the public funds.
Treasurer Huston receipted tor SILL
100000 to his predecessor, and he does
not propose to put his bondsmen in for
any portion of that amount.
This question Of the insecurity of the
treasury is not new one. II was quietly
agitated while John Sherman was Sec
retary in 1877, when serious labor
troubles were prevailing in the country.
All the old soldiers in the Treasury were
at that time quietly armed with revolVers
and put under the command of General
Baum, Commissioner of Internal Reve.
nue., and ordered to rendezvous in squads
at certain places, to be ready to respond
to any call that might be made upon
them. This was to resist possible
attack by open force.
Treasurer Huston's experiments have
demonstrated that the Treasury has been
vulnerable all the time to the ordinary
wiles of the Intelligent safecracker.
The news of this fact, aud its discovery
and the means to be taken to prevent the
accomplishment of any such wholesale
raid on the Treasury, will probably bring
several sighs of discomfort to numerous
enterprising bank wreckers.-New York

We spent pleasant hour recently
with Miss jamie Frierson at the West
End school. This school holds on to the
even tenor of its way with no noise or
friction, and the teacher is striving, "by
patient continuance in we'll doing," to
lay the foundations deep and strong of
solid character-building. Her school is
small in numbers, but is neat, orderly
and well-kept, and the little ones are
subjected to careful training and, no
doubt, years hence many of those pupils
will recall, with gratitude the kindly
words and gentle admonitions of the
teacher. We witnessed several credita.
BILE recitations, notably one by class of
six and seven.year.olds who began last
September, and have now entered the
third reader.

6 and 4, are known to their immediate
relatives and to good many besides as
"terrors."
The other afternoon they were engaged
in a very promising sparring contest,
when their mother intervened with some
violence, took both contestants by the
collar and set them clown sharply on the
floor, one on side of The fireplace and the
other on the other side. Then she seated
herself between them.
"There!" she exclaimed "now stay
there, exactly where you are, and I forbid
you to make sound !'
There was something unusually pc.
remptory, perhaps, in this treatment, and
for few moments the terrors were COW.
ed. Carl sat silent, blinking and looking
puzzled. His mother would have sworn
that he was studying up some means Of
getting around her comma ds. And
presently she was astonished to see him
extend his hand solemnly toward Ruth,
with the remark:
''Let us pray !"
And the two children fell on their
knees, while the boy repeated the Lords
Prayer. He knew his mother couldn't
spank him for that.-Listener IN Boston

Here are some facts for those who
sometimes sneer at our common schools,
and also for those who, if they do not
sueer, manifest frigid Indifference to
the matter of sending their children to
school. These are statistics that afford
abundant food for reflection (1.) One.
sixth of all the crime in the country ia
committed by persons wholly illiterate.
~ One third of the crime in the coun.
try is committed by persona wholly or
substantially iTliterate. (3.) The pro.
portion Of criminals among the illiterate
is, on the average, ten times as great as
it is among those who have received, at
least, the elements of common school
education. In other words the chances
are ten times as great fol. an illiterate
boy to be criminal as it is for the edu.
Gated boy. These are facts that are
proven by the criminal records, and
what must the father think who is delib.
erately keeping his boy away from
school7 Is he doing all in his power to
remove his boy from the chance of be-
coming criminal? Or is he deliberately
proposing to run the risk and take the
chances of his boy becoming criminal !?
There are few, and only few, families
that we know of who have lived almost
within the shadow of q school house, and
yet have not sent to school day this
winter. To say the least of it these
fathers are guilty Of q crime and wrong
perpetrated upon their own offspring.
These children have moral and an in.
herent right to some sort of an education,
and failure to give it is, we think, an
ofense in The sight of God, and ought to
be in the eyes of the law of the land.
The law would deal with the unnatural
father who would fail to provide for the
bodily wants of his child, with how much
more reason then should it deal with
him for failure to provide for the men
tai wants of that same child. From
what source is he exonerated from the
one more than from the other? Give
the children chance to 60 to school.
Have their minds polished and bright.
ened up. They may be, and doubtless
are, many diamonds in the rough among
them that, under the touch of the mortar,
will glitter and shine and enlighten the
world.

Confirmed.

The favorable impression produced on
the first appearance of the agreeable
liquid fruit remedy Syrup of Figs few
years ago has been more than confirmed
by the pleasant experience of all who have
used it, and the success of the proprietors
andlmanufacturers Of the California Fig
Syrup Company.

When the last blow was struck he re.

When the last blow was struck he re-
turned to his home-not such as he had
left it four years before, but it was
home. He laid aside his sword for the
plough hondle, and clothed in such ga.b
as the freedmen around him we're, Lo
started to work on his farm, making two
full hands.
In 1867 he had brought up his farm to
an extent that on one field of forty acres
he made thirty bales of cotton; on a
second field of thirty acres he made thirty
bales, and on smaller lot he made three
thousand pounds of seed cotton to the
acre.
This, it must be remembered, was be.
fore the days of fancy farming, and on
land which had been abandoned few
years before because it was too poor to
sprout COW peas.
His farm has not only brought him q
competency, but its production has in
creased until the yield per acre has be.
come like that of his neighbor Drake,
almost fabulous.
But he has not devoted hiu whole time
to his farm, he has found time to read
the newspapers and study carefully the
questions which they have discussed, and
it will be hard to find a man more
generally informed or better versed in
the history of men and things, past or
present.
He not only finds time to give TO his
own improvement, but he has found time
to superintend the education of all his
children, for he is strong believer in
the higher education of women, and has
given his daughters every advantage
which our collegiate institutions furnish.
He finds time, too, to attend every SER
vice of his church, whether on Saturday
or Sunday, and to attend to the duties of
the many official positions the church
has placed him in for thirty years or
more.
But he not only gives bis time to his
church, but his money also-and that
freely.
Just after the war, when with him, as
with every one in our country, it was a
struggle for bread, Stackhouse met with
an aged minister who had lost all his
savings through unprincipled men, whom
he had trusted. Stackhouse, on hearing
of the condition Of the minister, went to
him and, handing him some money, said:
"My brother, this will help you some. /
wish it was more, but it is every cent I
have in the world"
Such is the man the Alliance has se-
lected for its presidentin this State. If
he were to do no other good than serve
as an example to the young men Of the
country the selection will prove to be the
best that could have been made.
Col. Stackhouse's success in farming
has been greater than the average, brt
his success ought to be lesson to every
young man in the State Few men can
begin life poorer or on poorer land than he
did and few will be compelled to undergo
such q long interruption as the one he
had to submit to during the war. If
Col. Stackhouse succeeded why cannot

ri don't want my boy to write after
the copy in the book. want you to set
him one," said a patron to teacher this
winter. What could have been the
object in view it is hard to see, for of
course this father is honestly trying to
promote the best interests of his boy, as
he thinks he sees it. But what does this
amount to? What is the real DRIFT of it
Simply this, that the teacher does not
understand her business, that she does
not know how to do. that which she pre-
tends to know, and if this is true she has
no business in the school room. The
boy is sent there to learn to write, read
or spell. and in the very nature of things
the teacher must be the judge as TO hoao
it is to be done. She must do it in her
own way, and not in somebody ele's way,
or if she does not her school will be a
confused mass, tumble, without any
system or order in it. No man would
think of going for physician to treat the
bodily ailments of his child and then
attempt to- dictate to him the method of
treatment else, ifhe does, he defeats the
very object in view, the securing of
skilled service. The teacher processes to
understand her business, and whenever
it is found out that she does not let her
be bounced, but do not place any addi.
tional hindrances in the way, for there
are enough already that are inherent in
the business. It is the undoubted, TN.
questioned right of the patron to say
aohat his boy shall study, but itis equally
the unquestioned right of the teacher to
say hoso it shall be taught. These are
reciprocal rights, and neither should in
fringe upon the other. Success can only
be achieved by the hearty co operation
of both teacher and patron, and nothing
but failure can result from an undue
of each with the other.

The General said to him: "Stackhouse,
you must hold your position here" ri
will hold it, sir, as long as one of us, :"
with glance along the line of the old
Sth, is alive" This was said, continu.
ed the General, not in spirit of bragg
gadocio, but in that cool, low firm, tone,
which be was accustomed to use in ordi.
nary conversation, but one had only to
look into those honest gray eyes to be
convinced that he meant and would do
what he said.
Continuing the conversation Judge
Kershaw said: "I don't think I ever
saw him excited" Kershaw's Brigade
was often placed in position that veter.
an of the Old Guard would have been
pardoned for exhibiting some excite
ment, but such men as L. 7. Stackhouse,
whom sense Of duty governs at all

surprised but never excited, as re use
