My story is about Andrew Henderson.
and l have not finished the description OF
this unique character yet. He was man
OF prudent habits, and lived long after bis
actions had set the whole world in the way
Of right thinking. but the crowninE act OF
his economic career in San Francisco was
his attempt to gain possession of the City
Hall and public buildings, which were
then just completed at cost to the whole
people Of about $4,000, 600.
Andrew Henderson offered S50,0O0,O ,OOO

then called City and Countv"-if it
would deed to him Its public property con-
tanned on the site OF what was then known
as the new City Hall block.
The Board of Supervisors, then the gov
ernlng body OF the commonwealth.
promptly declined the offer, though some
OF its shortsighted members were for the
moment lured by what they called his
brilliant offer; their views of brilllancv
being circumscribed by coined gold and
sllVer-a mental disease that was prevalent
In those days.
The refusal of the Board of Supervisors
to permit Andrew Manderson to raze the
City Hall block TO the level and convert
the site into private park for his family
dld not seem to bother the richest man in
the world much, and the public congratu-
lated itself that he had given up the project
with out a struggle.
But the public was TOO hasty in its judg-
ment. Andrew Manderson was the kind
Of man who relinQuished the object of
his hearts desire when he had to-never
before. Opposition only increased his
covetousness. He had set his heart on
that particular spot for flower garden
and summer house for his girls. H. meant
to board the place in when the buildings
had been removed and then lavish his
millions on interior appointments.
And he almost succeeded in doing it.
He set about it very quietly. The bien-
nial election Of city officials was not half a

Our Public schools.

In the Forum for June, DIR. j. Nj.
Rice writes an article on sour Public
School System This gentleman has
recently spent a number of months Wis
iting schools all over the country, and
the article above mentioned sums up
the results of his study and shows the
defects and merits he wishes to empha-
size. Most of the schools he visited
were in cities or large places, but his
criticisms will apply just as well % our
own schools, and now, during the first
weeks of the new school law, is the
time to apply them. The remarks he
makes in regard to school boards and
supervisors are just as true of our
board of school directors. The teach
er makes the school, and the school
board is responsible for the teacher ;
therefore: Let us have, first, school
system absolutely free of politics; Sec
ond, thorough supervision of the
schools; third, the teachers must con-
stantly endeavor to advance both in
professional and general intellectual
strength. Given these conditions, with
a thoroughly competent school board,
the schools will take care ofthemselves.
We cannot expect to have, in our Ver-
mont country schools, the teachers and
methods for which city schools pay
high prices, but we can have teachers
who are alive and not asleep, who in
tend to make teaching business and
study it with that aim, and who have
something of the spirit of the new edu-
cation, which is not a mere training of
the memory by committing dry facts,
but .'leading out, and development
of the child, physically, morally and
mentally, process which must be a
pleasant and happy one or twill never

Of teaching the three Rs is superseded.

serve; then to express his observations /;
then to put these observations to
practical use. In these three rules
lies the pith of the Lew education, which
makes a schoolhouse not prison to be
feared, but delight and pleasure.
DIR. Rice divides our schools into
three classes, the first including those
conducted on the antiquated or cram

Governor Fuller has, with the con-
currence of the committee on ceremo-
nies, designated Friday, Sept. 10, as
Vermont day at the Worlds Colum-
bian Exposition in Chicago. This will
accommodate those who wish to take
in the Fair on their way home from
the National Encampment of the Grand
Army of the Republic. which meets at
indianapolis the preceding week.
The Boston Journal prints this en-
couraging paragraph among its edito-
rials: ''The more the affairs of the
Northwestern Guaranty Loan associa-
ton are investigated, the more ground
does there appear for the suspicion
that its misfortunes are attributed to
financial crookedness as well as to the
stringency in the money market" We
are afraid that the Journal is right.
The St. Johnsbury Republican says:
''The Northwestern Guaranty failure
struck the Orleans Trust company OF
Newport hard. The Trust company
owned $4,000 of guaranty stock, on
which it is liable to pay an assessment
of $40, 600. 1t has $4,000 capital
stock and deposits s220,00c. The de-
positors are perfectly safe, Of course,
because the stockholders are liable for
an amount equal to the capital"
Prof. Hiram A. Wilson died at Sar-

which he was identified twenty years.
Afterward he was superintendent of
public instruction at Brattleboro, and
he held other positions of trust. In
1868 he took up his residence at Sara
toga Springs, which became his per-
manent home.
