The Value of Latin.

This story, told at an education
meeting in London the other night,
may perhaps be e~njoyed>by these who
are antagonistic to the teaching of the
dead languages" At a certain school
a certain boy was regularly absent
during the hour in which Latin was
taught, and the teacher called upon
the boys father, at whose instructions,
1t had been learned, the lad kept away.
The teacher asked for an explanation,
and the father said:
'It Is oil right. During the Latin
hour / am teaching Jimmy something
that he will find far more useful than
Latin in his progress through life" The
teacher was interested, and asked what
this subject might be. The father re-
piled, II am teaching my son how to
shave without a looking glass;"

Big Government Tug Gets Back to

Special Dispatch to The Evening Star.
PORTSMOUTH, Va, February 12.-With
her fires barely burning under her boilers
and with just enough steam to make port,
and with her pumps choked with coai and
ashes and her forward hold filled with salt
water, the United States tug Hercules has
reached port after terrific battle with the
elements on tho A liant coast for thirty-six
hours in a bowling northeast gale and
binding snow storm. The Hercules sailed
from the fiavy yard Tuesday for the League
Island navy yard, in command of Lieuten-
ant Stanworth u s. N. The weather con-
ditions outside the capes beng threatening,
the tug was anchored in Hampton Roads,
off Old Point, until ) O'Clock Wednesday
when her comDander weighed anchor and
in the face of the storm passed out OF the
Virginia capes5 and headed the Hercules up
the coast for the Delaware breakWater-
She Into full-blown hurricane and
shipped great seas.
John Barber, a fireman, was injured dur
ing the blow. Both of the forward and
one of the vessels after pumps became
choked with ashes and coal. The crew had
by this time. almost given up hope Tor the
survival of the. ship. Her bow was be-
ginning t9, settle under the weight of the
water she had shipped forward.
Finding that IT would be useless to at
tempt to put the disabled pumps in working

bueket brig de 10 attempt to bail the water
from the ship.
The Hercuaes hssd succeeded in reaching
point somewhere midway between this
port and the: Della ware breakwaters. Find

disaster to attempt to stem the tide further

MRS. COX'S SALARY.
Controller Decides She Was Not En-.
titled to an Increase.

The controller of the treasury has over
ruled decision Of the auditor for the Post
Office Department that Mrs. Minnie Cox,
who was the colored postmistress at In
dianola. Miss. and about whose case so
much was written, is entitled to 81 SEQ a
year as postmistress while the Office re-
NAMED closed. At the time of her trouble
at Indianola she had been drawing $3.50
a year, based upon the receipts OF her Office
for the three past quarters Of business
Estimating the receipts during the quarter
following, when the Office was closed the
assistant postmaster general recommended
that she be paid 81, 300 year. The auditor
decided that she could be paid at this rate.
The controller overrufed this, holding that
1t was not in accordance with law. The
effect of the decision is not to deny Mrs.
Cox payment for her salary while her office
was closed, but merely that she is not en-
titled to an increase under the law pro-
vfding for the adjustment of salaries of
postmasters. This is section / Of the act of
March g. 1883.

In behalf of'the caveatee, refused to answer
question propounded by Attorney A. 3.
Worthington of counsel for the caveator.
Justice Wright directed Mr.. Elliott to an

Immediately ordered the deputy marshal for
the District In attendance upon the court
to take Mr.. Elliott into custody and to have
him taken to Jail to remain until such time
as he should purge himself Of the contempt
of the court, of which the justice declared
him guilty.
Mr.. Elliott had said in his testimony that
before paying visit to the house of Mr..
Gait he had been at the home OF client
taking notes preparatory to the drawing
of will, and when asked to diyulse the
name OF The party whom he had been visit
ing he~absolut ely refused to answer.
The witness went on to say that ne had
given his word to his client not TO divuige
lis name and hat he feit n fo.ior Louiu %
remain silent. He further stated that his
client had imposed the ban OF secrecy upon
him for the reason that the knowledge OF
the making of will by him might ma

Before the marshal had carried out the
order of commitment word was received
by him to bring Mr.. Elliott before the
court again when it should reconvene after

livery letters and he reiterated the state
ment that his client was not mythical
one, but did exist and does now exist. jus
tice Wright replied that it was because of
his belief that client existed he had
signed the order of commitment.
Marshal Aulick Palmer. upon request OF

Elliott at the city hall until late this after
noon in order to give counsel time to pre-
pare papers for writ of habeas corpus.
