His life as director of the South Ken
sington museum, was made miserable
by the badgering, fiddling and fidgeting
of parcel of Philistine civil service Of
ficials who liked to amuse themselves by
winding and unwinding spools of red
tape.
Sir Purdon owes all his great success
in his chosen work to his own laborious
efforts He started humbly enough, and
in continuous connection with museum
work of one kind or other, steadily
worked his way to the front. His expert
ence and knowledge as collector in the
broad field of Illustrative study and APP
piled art are known as exceptional. BY
lifetime of arduous service-Sir Pur-
don is in his sixtieth year-he qualified
himself for the Encouragement of the
vast collections of South Kensington in
the new buildings to be completed in the
course of few years
His pathway as a stu mt was show
cred with honors and rewards. AS an
architect he designed several consular
and embassy buildings and the Indian
pavilion in the first Paris exposition.
AS a collector he made many journeys
to the continent and long tour in India.
He received his appointment as director
of the museum at Kensington nine years
ago. and was made knight in recogni-
ton of his talent.

Over forty cattle owners attend
ed the meeting at Tyndsll last
week, called for the purpose of
choosing a county cattle inspector
as provided for by the new state
EalSsw Candidates for the position
were numerous, but by vote OF
23 to 81 the convention refused to
make any appointment. The
county commissioners therefore
proceeded to exercise the power
vested in them, Of making such
appointment in case the conven-
ton failed to do so, and appointed
J. H. Sanford. Evidently the con-
vention acted under misappre-
hension of the purpose of the law.
The law, as we understand it, was
passed at the instigation of the
cattle men of the state, the pur-
pose being to rid the state of the
scabbies which exists in many To-
calities in the state, and thus re
move the necessity for continuing
the government inspection which
seems to be very unsatisfactory to
shippers. The expense Of provid-
ing conveniences for dipping cattle
is necessary under the present syr-
tenn in all counties where the scab-
bies exists so no extra expense in
this line is incurred. AS the coun
ty inspector is paid only for the
time that he is employed, if his ser
vices are not needed there need be
no extra expense. Of course with
some inspectors unnecessary ex-
pense might be incurred, but we
believe the board has made wise
selection in this county, and under
his management the work will be
conscientiously performed.
