Maryland independent. [volume] (Port Tobacco, Md.) 1874-current, 1893-04-28

Mr.. J. L. Emerson, California
"forty-nner," relates a curious story
in the Scientific American. God,
while its melting point is over 2,0l6
degrees, will evaporate at a much
lower heat. In 1884 the Govern.
ment Inspector visited the Chem new
mint at San Francisco, to take
stock, and found a deficiency Of
.l60,000 Tremendous excitement
ensusd, the sensation being almost
equal to that caused by the acts Of
the famous Vigilance Committee.
Wholesale arrests were threatened,
until some cool head suggested that
evaporation was the thief-that the
missing gold had flown up the chim-
ney. Sure enough, examination Of
the slate roof showed it covered with
feathery gold, where the cold air had
caused 1t to be deposited when 1t
came out Of the chimney. The states
were torn of; also those from several
nearby buildings; these were ground
to powder, and much of the gold re.
covered. So also was the furnace and
chimney brick, and, after all was
saved that could be profitabiy by the
methods in use in San Francisco, the
dust was sent to the mint in Phila-
delphia. Here it was worked over
more closely, and then the dust was
sold to French chemists, who shipped
IL to Paris and worked it over again
there.
More than one-half of the $3.50, 900,
as well as the good name Of the San
Francisco official, was saved by these
various processes. Improved meth.
DDS now prevent any recurrence OF
such mysterious losses.

The Maryland Schools.

The announcement. is made from week
to week. says the Morning Herald. that
the schools Of this or that county in
Maryland have been ,'osed for want Of
funds. 4. recurrence of this condition
Of afFiirs year after year has led up TO
the conclusion that something is defsc
tive in the machinery by which the
school funds are raised Criticis.4 il
common, and there is great danger that
the Maryland public school system will
suffer incslculable La. IN In be way Of
IL isjudgneu'.
The Secretary of the State Board Of
Education in bis last annual report has
something to say calculated to dissipite
the notion that there is any bad manage
ment behind the failare in several coun.
ties to secure suffic ent funds to keep the
schools open the entire s,hool year He
declares that the system as such is pecu
liarly free from faults In many i'm.
pertant res ,ects Maryland has the best
educational advantages of any State IN
the Union. Upon the whole, the schools
have excellent teachers, The grade If in
struction is high and the management is
simple and effective.
Maryland provides public instruction
for 200 600 pupils annually. A force
of 1000 teachers is required and the
cost is very great The counties being
somewhat sparsely settled cannot always
command the revenue required to keep
the schools open, but that is The fault of u
few payers rather than of the system
1t is encouraging to fud so much fa-
vorable to the Maryland schools said
from high official source. The facts
presented by this report will do much to
destroy false impressions and to disarm
snap judgment

Reports from Washington assert that
Secretary Gresham has been hunting
for some excuse to abrogate the reciproc-
ity treaties ever since lie assumed Office
They alssr state that he has been success
full. This is no doubt true. Such an
excuse usHally is found, and that with
oN much difficulty, by the man who sets
out to look for it. The increase from
$lS.O00.COt to S330OO. 600 in the
value Of our exports to Cuba during the
eighteen months of the treary's operation
over the corresponding period preceding
counts for nothing in the Administers
tien's estimation Nor does it seem To
occur to the President that the trivial in
Engagements on our treaty rights which
are complained of in the case Of Cuban
officials could be easily stopped by prop
or diplomatic procedure. and that the
sacrifice of our valuable market is not at
all necessary.
Cleveland and Gresham are not seek
ing to preserve the market. They want
pretext to destroy reciprocity. Having
lowered the Gag in Hawaii, the admins
tration is now willing to undertake the
task Of checking our commercial expan-
sion in Latin America. Both feats will
accord exactly with the Democratic pro-
iect to turn over the domestic market to
foreigners.

Johnny Gibbs is a youthful philos-

be simpljfied if people would be con.

The other day Johnny was hard at
work with paper and pencil. His
mother looked over his shoulder.

But, mamma, said the little boy,

South Carolina has gone into the
whiskey business on her own account; all
the whiskey sold in the State is sold by
and for the State; the bar tenders are ali
employed by the Sta.e, and the Cover
nor is the boss proprietor. With such
ample facilities in his possession, it ought
not to be difficult matter for him to ex-
tend to the Governor of North Carolina
those traditional opportunities for re-
freshment, more frequently than was en-
joyed by his predecessors.

KNOWLEDGE

Brings comfort and improvement and
tends TO personal enjoyment when
rightly used. The many, who live bet
ter than others and enjoy life more, with
less expenditure, by more promptly
adapting the worlds best products to
the needs of physical being, will attest
the value to health Of the pure liquid
laxative principles embraced in the
remedy, Syrup Of Figs.
Its excellence is due to its presenting
in the form most acceptable and pleas
ant to the taste, the refreshing and truly
beneficial properties Of perfect lax
alive; efiectually cleansing the system,
dispelling colds, headaches and fevers
and permanently curing constipation.
1t has given satisfaction to millions and
met with the approval of the medical
profession, because it acts on the Kid
news, Liver and Bowels without weak
ening them and it is perfectly free from
every Objectionable substance.
Syrup of Figs is for sale by all drug
gists in SOC and 81 bottles, but it is man
ufactured by the California Fig Syrup
Co. only, whose name is printed on every
