FOR UNIVERSITY EXTENSION.
Course of Six Lectures Arranged At
St. Johns College.

Arrangements have been made with
the American Society for the exten-
sion OF university teaching for course
of lectures on the Colonial Rivalries
Of the Great Powers" hy Ramsay
Muir, NJ. A.. staff lecturer in history
and Literature OF the London Univer-
sity, England The above course OF
six lectures will be delivered at st.
Johns College during Lent, Friday
evenings, from February 23 to March 8.
The lectures will be adapted for a
popular audience and will be Illus
trated with lantern slides. A printed
syllabus of the lectures and library
of selected books will be accessible TO
every ticket holder. After each lee
ture those who desire to do 50 may
remain for a personal conference with
the lecturer on the subject discussed.
BY this plan the best teachers of the
great universities are brought to local
centers TO do practically the same
work for the people at large that they
do 10 the university for the students
there. The subject of these lectures
is one not easily covered by text books
and is of immediate interest to
Americans. Thus an opportunity is
afforded TO study it with a Master.
The expense of securing this course
is $500, exclusive of the library, sylla-
bus, hall, advertising and travelling
expenses of the lecturer. A number of
prominent citizens have co-operated
with st. Johns College in securing
the services of Professor Muir, and il
is expected that as the arrangement
becomes generally known many others
will also desire TO enroll themselves
as subscribers. Tickets to the course
of six lectures can be obtained at
St johns College ON application.

some TROUBLE WITH A BOND
TREASURER is BONDED OUT
SIDE OF MARYLAND.
The Law Forbids This And Haste
Is Made To Rectify The
Mistakes.

Although the newly elected county
treasurer Mr.. Alton II Arnold, does not
enter npon liis duties until Maynext, vet
there is a law which SAYS he must be
bonded within certain time alter
his election. That time expires today
Knowing that il was necessary for
the newly elected county treasurer to
bond at this time, and have his bond
approved, the local representatives of
three bonding companies, viz Messrs
Julian Brewer, Allen McCullough
and Ridgely p Melvin, appeared be-
fore the Beard of County Commission
ers at their meeting on Tuesday and
offered to bond the treasurer in their
respective companies.
The amount in each case differed
somewhat aud the County Commits.
sioners thinking TO be economic,
accepted the lowest and agreed to
bond the treasurer in the company
represented by Mr.. Allen Mccullough.
Unforeseen development resulted and
there has been hurry and furry about
the County Commissioners Office the
past thirty.six hours that would have
done credit TO the Corn and Flour Ex-
change or the Hay Market
The counsellor to the Board, James
W. owens, Esq. discovered with the
aid of Ridgely =. Melvin, ESQ, that
there is law in the State of Mary
land which prohibits the bonding of
any of its officers in company out.
side the state. The fact of the exis :
tence of this law was not known to
the new Board of County Commission
res, who had placed the bond of their
treasurer with company outside of
Maryland. Steps were speedily taken
to undo what had been done, and to
do it quickly. as the time in which
the county treasurer must be bonded
expires today.
The bid of the next lowest bonding
company was accpeted, that represent
ed locally by Ridgely P. Melvin,
Esq. and the county treasurer was
bonded by the American Bonding and
Trust Company, of Baltimore. Every
thing was accomplished in time and the
affair was satisfactorily consummated
today The law which forbids any
official in the state bonding with a
company outside the state is an ex-
cellent one, and was drawn by James
NJ. Munroe, Esq, of this city.
