A Story ofProf. Mendenhall.

Prof. Mendenhall, the head of the United
States coast survey and scientist of world
wide reputation, discovered his special men
tai bent in curious way, says Kate Field s
Washington. He was the son of a farmer in
western village. One day, when he was
about Ii years old, a man from another
township bought a COW of his father, who not
wishing to be troubled with delivering the
animal himself, said: My son, 1 win give
you dollar to drive that COW to x for
me-"
How far is it?" asked the boy.
Twenty miles by the road Won would
have to take"
The distance was long, but the dollar
looked big. A bargain was struck on the
spot, and the next morning before daylight
the farmers son started on his Journey He
reached his destination by night, very tired
but before going to bed he happened to no.
tice, in a corner of the Sitting-room OF the
house in which he was to lodge, a well-worn
copy of Euclid a glance inside of the book
fascinated the youngSter, who sat up most of
the night in spite of his days tramp porting
over the angles and arcs sines and tangents.
He resolved he must have the book. The
next morning he said to the master of the
house: What will you take for your Eu-
clid?n
Il suppose it's worth dollar was the an
swer
Down went young Mendenhall's hand into
his pocket, out came the dollar which he had
so bravelY earned, and the next minute he
was the owner of the book which he carried
tenderly under his arm as he trudged home.
That was the opening suggestion of a career
in science OF which any man might be proud

Hamlet's Ghost.

The critic Of the Boston Home Journal af-

Rather a funny thing occurred as 1 was

enough, Capt. Hamlet is q Dane, having been
born in Copenhagen, but he is now in the

ancholy Dane. by any means. Quite the re-
verse. assure you.
A good story is told OF Hamlet, regarding a
little episode which happened on cruise.
The vessel was in port and number of the
crew had been allowed to go ashore, AS they
came of to the ship at night, HAMLET was
pacing the quarter deck that sacred spot
where no common sailor dared to tread But
on this occasion one OF the men, having had a
little more liquid nOCrishment than was good
for him, instead of going forward, where he
belonged, went aft, and the first thing Ham
lett knew a common sailor had come up the
eompaniOnway and was standing before him.
Before he could recover from his surprise, the
sailor said in Sepulchral tones:
Hamlet, am thy father 5 ghost!"
us that so:" said Hamlett, then take
that" and striking out from the shoulder the
sailor fell back where he belonged. Since
then this HAMLET has not been troubled by
ghosts.

The omoe of County Treaaurer.

There is bill pending in the Legislature
requiring the county treasurer of this
county to have some guarantee company
guarantee that he will faithfully dis
charge the duties of his office, and pro-
viding that the cost of such a guarantee
shall be paid by the county. The bill is
reported to have been introduced by Rep
resentative Guerard.
Would not Mr.. Guerard act in accord
ance with the popular will if he should so
amend his bill as to abolish the treasu-
rers Office altogether at the end of the
term of the present incumbent2
If we are correctly informed, neither
Richmond, Fulton nor Bib county has
a county treasurer's office. In those
counties such an office is not considered
as necessary. Why should it be regarded
as necessary in this county,
BY abolishing the Office and depositing
the county funds in the banks, subject to
the drafts of the county commissioners,
the county would be better off by quite a
number of thousands of dollars each
year. Not only would the salary of the
treasurer be saved, but the banks would
be glad to pay at least per cent. for the
county deposits. AS these deposits are
often quite large, neat sum could be
realized from the interest.
We assume that the representatives
from this county are anxious to do what
is for the best interests of the people. If
they can save the county few thousand
dollars annually, it is presumed they will
be glad to do So
1t may be claimed that county treas
urer is necessary in this county If such
an officer is necessary the fact can easily
be pointed out. At present no reason is
apparent for an officer of that kind which
does not exist in the cases of the other
counties named.
If Chathams representatives have no
reasons for thinking the treasurer's Of
flee should be retained they ought to be
prompt in asking that it be abolished,
and thus very materially improve the
county's financial condition. Making the
act take effect at the close of the term of
the present treasurer would avoid any
appearance of injustice to that official
If the governor of the great state OF
Georgia were to be voted a salary com.
mensurate with the Importance of the
state and the dignity of his office he would
receive two or three times 5000 wear,
the sum it is proposed in the general as.
sembly he shall receive. But times are
too hard" now to think of running the
salary up to tive-fgure sum. The in
crease to 5000, however, should be made.
There are certain duties which the gov
ernor, as the representative Of the state
is called upon to perform, and he cannot
perform them in a manner creditable tC
his official position upon the salary he
! now receives.

to leave at o'clock in the morning to make

number has not kept pace with the literary

Paw the Bonds.

There ought to be no hesitation on the
part of the legislature to pass the bill to
pay certain long past due bonds Of the
state that were issued under the admin
istration of Gov jenkins, known as con-
ventiOn bonds, and certain other bonds is
sued under the administration of Gov.
Mcdonald. 1t is stated, and not contra
dicted, that the interest on these bonds
was regularly paid up to their maturity.
That fact of itself is excellent evidence
that they are valid obligations of the
state.
1t seems that some Of the bonds have
not been paid because of an error in re-
spect to them that was committed in the
Office of the state treasurer, and that the
only objection ever raised to the others Of
them is that the holders Of them were
unable to prove continued ownership.
As far as we have been able to see, it
has never been asserted that the bonds
were not regularly issued, or that they are
not valid state obligations. The amount
Of them, together with the accrued inter
est, is about $40, 900, and the proposition
is to issue ~ per cent. bonds with which
to pay them.
The bonds ought to have been paid long
ago, and the per cent. interest on them
stopped. 1t is difficult to see how any
member of the legislature can vote against
them, unless he has good reasons
for believing that they are not
valid obligations of the state. To
vote against paying them, simply
because of a suspicion that there is some
thing crooked connected with them, with
out any basis for the suspicion, is not to
act in accordance with wise and con-
scientious sense of public duty and for
the best interests of the state. The state
cannot afford to repudiate any of her
valid obligations. On the maintenance
Of her credit depends her prosperity to
great extent and besides she ought to do
what is right. If she can pay her debts
she ought to do so.
There ought to be only one issue in this
matter, and that is, are the bonds valid.
Those members of the legislature who
have given special attention to this ques-
tion say they are If they are there is
only one thing to do and that is to pass
the bill that provides the means for their
Davnpnt
