bers Of the Board of Trustees being able
to reject them until the Mayor appoint
ed some Of their political friends who
wish a job.
Good men who are out of employment
are not so plentiful that the Mayor can
present their names forever, and the
board can tire him out until he presents
one that suits them, and who will there
fore look to them instead of the Mayor
Mayor Grace of Brooklyn would appoint
no man until he would sign an agree
ment to resign when he did not fill the
position to the satisfaction of the peo-
pie. Such an agreement would keep
them up to the mark in doing their duty
c. w. Baker argued that at present
we have a, good Mayor, but it will not,
perhaps, be always so. If we get bad
Mayor the case may be very different,
and he might appoint political strikers
to all the positions. He thought that it
would be we'll to continue a check on
the Mayor, say one-third of the board,
to hold him to his duty.

DIED AT HIS DUTY.
The Late DIR. NJ. L. Hearne, Weather
Observer at San Diego.

The Late DIR. NJ. L. Hearne, Weather
Observer at San Diego.
Observer Barwick of the Weather
Bureau has received notice of the death
of DR.. M. L. Hearne, the observer in
charge of the Weather Bureau station
at San Diego. Mr.. Hearne had been
in the Weather Bureau service since
1870, but his health began to fail in
the early seventies. While stationed
on the summit of Mount Washington,
in New Hampshire, his assistant died
during the winter season, when at
times it is impossible for anyone to
reach the summit Consequently Mr..
Hearne was domiciled for several weeks
with no companion save a dead man.
He placed the body in a snowbank
outside and telegraphed his situation,
and in about two or three weeks relief
came in the shape of some mountaineers
with coffin, and an assistant also for
company for Mr.. Hearne. The corpse
inclosed in the coffin was tobogganed
down the mountain side, a distance of
three miles, by two men straddling the
box and steering it.
From that day to the day of his death
Mr.. Hearne was never we'll man. The
experience OF those weeks SnaCLereQ MS
constitution completely, but he man
aged to live quite while. He was re-
lieved in the spring from the mountain
station and sent to the Southern States,
from there to the State of Washington,
and thence to San Diego, where he has
been stationed some eight or ten years.
The Weather Bureau Department al
ways favored Mr.. Hearne with the most
healthful stations they could find. He
was a native of Delaware, and a good
and conscientious observer and citizen.
He leaves a wife and several children.
Mrs. Hearne is a native of Marysville,
in this State
f. A Carpenter, the Assistant State
Weather Service Director at Carson
City, has been ordered to San Diego to
take charge of the station there.

Mrs. Stanford Has Consented to Sell to
the City Her Old Home.
President w. J. Davis of the City
Board Of Education has received from
DR.. H. w. Hardness of San Francisco
a response to the letter addressed to
him some time since in reference to
the prospect of the city's purchase of
the Stamford residence here for high
school purposes.
DR.. Hardness writes that he had in
terviewed Mrs. Stanford on the sub
ject, and while she always desired to
retain the property, because of the
cherished memories connected there
with, she had consented to let the city
have it, provided it be purchased for
a specific purpose-that purpose being
for use as a high school
Nothing was said about the price to
be placed on the property, that matter
being left to Mrs. Stanfords agent,
Charles G. Lathrop. President Davis
is confident, however, that if the city
should be willing to purchase it Mrs.
Stanford will make a very generous
reduction from it's value
At first Mrs. Stanford would not lis
ten to any proposal, but when remind
ed of the fact that after her death
there would be no telling into whose
hands it might fall, nor to what pur-
poses it might be devoted, she became
convinced that it would be wise to let
the city take it on the condition that
it be maintained for high school
