The alleged origin of the decidedly useful
baggage checks has been told By D. Merrell
Of Union City. Mich, as follows:

have charge OF the music. He knew that

that there would be lots Of trouble with

BOOKS FOR TEACHERS.
STATE LIBRARIES TO BE OPENED
IN EVERY COUNTY.

Fines Collected for Non-attendsnce
at Teachers Institutes the Source
From Which the Money Comes for
the Purchase OF the Books-To Be
Located at the County sites.
ATLANTA, GA. Jan. 5.-Within the next
month or so there will have been estab-
lished in Georgia 1877 libraries for the use
of the public school teachers Of the state.
The establishment OF these libraries is a
most important move in the educational in
terests Of the state, as in addition to aiding
in raising the standard Of the teachers
through their inference the masses OF chill
dren who attend the common schools will
be the bene1cisries. State School Commits
sioner Bradwell is the originator OF the plan
for the organization OF these libraries and
has Just sent out TO each OF the various
county school commissioners a circular
letter giving the preliminary instructions In
relation to the organization Of teachers
library in each county Of the state. Under
che Law provided for county teachers in
stitutes it was compulsory on teachers to
attend these institutes or submit TO a fine
for each day OF absence. This money COL
lected as fines, under the direction of The
state school commissioner, was set aside Tor
the purpose OF es ablishing teachers
libraries.
LAST YEARS INSTITUTES,
Commissioner Bradwell has Just received
abe reports from the county school COM
missiouers touching the teachers institutes
of the past year, which was the first year
under the new law, and in reference 10 tue
fines collected for non-attendance. In some
counties the amount runs up as high as 500
and in others as low as $40. This money is
TO be spent at once for the purchase OF
books, which will form nucleus for
magnificent library In every county Of the
state. Next year the amount collected III
fines for non-eUtendance upon the institutes
will In all probability be larger than 1t
was this year because the law will be more
rigidly enforced. Commissioners Bradweu
says. and in time such donations as will lie
made by those whose interest is enlisted in
the cause OF education 20 these libraries will
have q powerful influence in disseminating
education throughout the state. In speak
sDg of the preliminary work Of Organization
on which be is now engaged Commissioner
Brad we'll to-day said that be had found that
the teachers in the common schools of the
state did but little reading, and
this fact with its apparent detriment
TO the cause of education, led him to
hit upon the plan of establishing libraries
in every county with the county school
commissioners as librarians, the libraries to
be located at the county site, where the
teachers of the county are required to meet
together at least one day out OF each month,
their privilege under this plan being to take
whatever books they may fancy and keep
them until the meeting month later.

SNAPPED VALVES OF HIS HEART
A Diver Killed Thirty-flve Feet Below
Surface By Premature Explosion.

A Diver Killed Thirty-1ve Feet Below
Surface BY a Premature Explosion.
From the Boston Globe.
NEW YORK, Dec. 30.-Adoniram H, Fair
child, one OF the most skiIlful divers In the
country, met an untimely death this morn
ing in thirty-fve feet OF water at the end Of
the big Innan pier. which extends out on
the North river for several hundred feet
directly opposite Fulton and West streets.
It was his business to remove the stone
reef surrounding the new Inman pier. For
months he has been working away on the
reef in the attempt to obtain thirty five feet
of water at low tide. so that the big Inman
liners can tir up to the wharf whenever
they arrive IN port.
The task was hard one for the tide runs
swift, and the ice sometimes dis the basin
up until 1t delays work. For months Fair
child has been drilling and blasting with
dynamite.
When he was ready to descend John R.
I,eary, the divers tender, handed him a
pail containing eight nItro-glycerIne cart
ridges. As soon as he got TO the bottom he
signaled by the line which acts as d tele-
graph wire that be was all right.
Two men we're pumping air down the
tube, and Leary stood by ready to answer
any call coming up over the line.
The men working on the pumps were
startled when they heard Leary shout:
Hello, what's that's Did you hear that
noises"
They answered, "No." It was loud
enough for an explosion OF the usual kind,
and 1t was not followed by any disturbance
in the water, nor did any fish come TO the
surface stunned or killed by tho conclusion.
Still Leary did not waste any time sig-
mailing.
sAre you all right!" was the signal.
There was no reply, and down went q
second message:
"Are you all right againg"
Something's wrongp Leary shouted,
and his two assistants ran over and helped
him bring Fairchild to the surface. They
untouched and cut open his suit Of diving
clothes Co find Fairchild dead.
His helmet was crushed back, and when
removed the chin showed an abrasion
where the iron or steel had been forced
against his face.
At first the bumpers thought that with
medical aid Fairchild might recover, but
Leery, who isa veteran IN the business,
said:
mo. boys, he's gone. Don't you see he's
broke his hearts It's the conclusion what
did it, and it snapped the valves Of his
heart"
He then pulled up the pail containing the
cartridges, and found that only two of the
eight had been used. Her surmised that
Fairchild had been ramming the two home
in the drill hole with the ramrod, when
they accidentally exploded.
Policeman John Meagher and Edward
Magner summoned an ambulance, and by
the time the surgeon came down the long
dock big crowd had gathered TO see the
cause Of the trouble.
