FAT YEAR FOR AUDITORS.
Because of Inspection of Books of
State Department.


Governor Brown has drawn a war
rant in favor of Alonzo Richardson
& Co. for 1876 for services in audit
ing the books of the state treasurer.
An auditor was employed for fifteen
days on the work, which, at SIS a
day, amounted to 1925; the principal
was employed for six days, receiving
$3.50, making total of 1915.
Mr.. Richardson was employed by
Ex-Governor Smith to audit the books
OF the treasury department last June
when j. Pope Brown was appointed
by him to succeed Capt. R. E. Park
as state treasurer, and received for
that work $779.34.
This has been a fat year for audi
tors, as Joel Hunter & Co. were also
employed last June by Ex-Governor
Smith to audit the books of the pris-
on department, and received $4,000,
making $1,OO9.37 for services of au-
ditors during the month of June.

Popular and Highly Esteemed Off
cial Was Brother of Mrs.
EIlerbee of Brentwood.
H. F. Brimberry, postmaster at AL
bany for number of years, died
at his residence there shortly after
noon Wednesday.
Late Saturday evening before,
while driving rapidly to escape an APP
preaching storm, he collided in the
darkness with a wagon, and was
thrown to the ground, where he was
found some time later unconscious.
He partially regained consciousness
on the following day, but improve
ment was very slow. A sudden
change for the worse came a little
before noon Wednesday, and in half
an hour he was dead. Cerebral
hemorrhage was the immediate cause
of his death.
Mr.. Brimberry was the son of Ma
jor and Mrs. B. F. Brimberry, and
besides his aged parents is survived
by his wife and three children and
three sisters, the latter being Mrs.
j. H. Ellerbee of Bronwood, Mrs. J.
B. Bussey of Cuthbert and Mrs. w.
E. Rowsey of Albany
He was very popular, and his death
has caused all of Albany to mourn.
His administration of the affairs
Of the Albany postoffice was a strik-
ingly successful one. With smooth
ness and unusual efficiency its various
departments were operated under his
supervision, and for the seven and a
half years which was his tenure of
Office the patrons of the Albany post
office received an almost faultless
service.

Individual applicants, applicants

THE BEDTIME GOBLIN

There's a naughty little goblin
You ought to know about,
He comes into the nursery
When the day-light's all put out.
He creeps in very quietly,
Newer rat-tles at the lock-
/ rather think his house is
Just inside the big hall clock.
His face is very fret-ful,
And OH so pinched and white,
/ am sure that little goblin
Stays up far too late at night.
Don't listen when he whispers
That you shouldn't go TO bed;
He coax-es little children
To play with him instead.

WaInuts Are Plentiful
Dear Aunt Laurie:

Dear Aunt Laurie:
I live near the Palms. The Palms is
a little town about four miles from the
Pacific coast. 1t is in the center of
walnut orchards. Some of the largest
walnuts that are raised in the United
States are raised around here.
Besides the walnuts there are large
bean fields. The lima beans are raised
mostly around the Palms. There are a
few little white beans raised near here,
too.
The lima beans are planted about the
first of May When the beans are ripe
they are cut with bean cutter and are
stacked into little lunches by men and
boys.
When the beans are dry they are
threshed. There is also hay raised
here. LESTER REBBECK.

the children were glad to remain
quietly in their apartments. They
took advantage of this chance to
send postal cards to their friends
in California.
The day following, however,
Mr.. Hopkins announced at break
fast that he meant to take them
that day to spend several days in
a small village where one of Eng
lands noted writers had lived.
He said that this man had lived
great many years ago and his
works wkere still considered the
best of their kind. All the chill

this writer in school before COM

A DEAR" remarked Mr..
Hopkins one morning as the
waiter brought in the breakfast
and the letters at the same time.
For me?" asked Mrs. Hop
kins. why, who do | know in
Scotland?"
"Oh, it's from my old school
friend Eleanor BrownW she ex-
claimed. you know she married
a wealthy Scotch nobleman and
she has just heard that we are in
England and wants us to come
and spend a few days with her.
The girls will be glad to know
that we live quite near Balmoral
castle, where Queen Victoria used
to spend SO much time, and al
though the royal family is now
in London, my husbands position
will enable us to visit the castle, .
Mrs. Hopkins read from the letter.
Needless to say trunks were
quickly packed and the Hopkins
family started back to Scotland
to make this visit, which prom
ised to be SO delightful.
A big touring car was waiting
at the station to meet the Ameri-
can travellers, but Mrs. Hopkins
was a little bit disappointed be-
cause her old friend did not come
to meet her. She realized, how
ever, that this hospitable custom
was not in vogue in Europe.
Mary and Jessie were sitting
together in the back seat of the
auto and as they passed an un-
usually beautiful country place,
far handsomer than anything
they had ever seen before, they
decided that that must be Bal
moral and Immediately resolved
that they would set out at the
first opportunity to visit this
place.
Their chance came sooner than
they expected, for they had gone
only little way farther when
bang Ia tire burst. While the
chauffeur was busy making the
necessary repairs the girls got
out of the car and in strolling
about managed to slip away quite
unobserved by their parents or
Carl.
In a few moments the new tire
was set and the machine ready to
proceed, a fact which was an
nounced by long blast on the
siren horn. But no girls respond
ed to the call.
Continue this story, telling of the
girls adventures, how they found their
way into the beautiful grounds of the
castle, with whom they spoke and what
followed their invasion of this strange
territory.
