Late Frank G. Welton Died Ow-

of Sc, 1882,
so THE EXPERTS REPORT
Honesty of Long Time County CLERK
Not MISUNDERSTANDING
Errors Were Numerous.

Cambridge. H.. Feb. 2O.-tArgus Spe-
cial. late Frank G. Welton, for
81 years clerk of Henry county. died
in arrears in the sum of $6,71S.92. ac-
cOrding to the report OF Jones Caesar
Dickinson. Wilm,t & Co. bookkeeping
experts. who made their report on the
examination of the former offcial's
books to a special meeting of the Hen
ry county supervisors this afternoon.
The report stated that the shortage
was not due to dishonesty on the part
of MIR. Wel,on, but to bad boollkeep-
ing.
Intended to Quiet RumOrs.
THE finding Of the experts which
covers 200 typewriter pages. is
being read before a special meeting of
the board called by the finance com
mittec The latter engaged the experts
on instructions of the board. which act
ed after rumors had been persistenly
circulated attacking the honesty of Mr
WeltOn and alleging that large sums
had been diverted from the county $
Golfers to the private enterprises of
the official. Mr. Welton died about Il
year ago.
Errors over Long Period.
The report covers 33 years. Errors
appear to have been found from the
beginning, some of them causing loss
to Mr. Welton. but in the main being
against the county. The experts found,
| they say, that the mistakes chiefly orig
mated through copying of records from
one book TO another. The probate fee
book was in bad shape and the file;
were depleted through the practice Il
allowing attorneys to borrow from
them
| Many of the complications in the
system of keeping accounts have been
corrected in later years. it is asserted
1t is, probable an attempt will be made

Young Mrs. Thaw's cross eXamina-

attorneys as we'll as between Mr.. Ja-

Thaw seemed in a cheerful frame Of
mind during the afternoon. especially
when Mr.. Delmas was insisting that
the cross examination of his wifa
should proceed. The young man grew
more sober faced after Mr.. jerome
had begun to ply his questions in a
way that indicated a relentless searcn
into Mrs Thaw's past life.
Mr.. Jerome did not even forget the
incident of the cat and the conductor
who wanted to put it off the train. Mrs.
Thaw had testified that she told her
husband of this incident in her early
life. Mr.. Jerome also remembered that
Mrs. Thaw had told of eating chocolate

Grecian history says that Dionysius'
daughters singed his beard with nut
shells because the father was afraid
to trust the town barber fearing lest
he cut his throat!
It will be remembered these were
the. days of treachery and cold feet!
A ruler might go to sleep with his
crown under his pillow and awake
next morning to find not only his
crown but the head wherein 1t rested,
missing!
There is a precedent for this last
sentence, an Irishman several years
ago having awoke to find himself
dead
But, anyhow. this wasn't the reason
Dionysius made tonsorial artists Of
his pretty daughters, 1t happened

red-plush chair and asked for a shave.
The barber hesitated meanwhile

dialogue then took place:
