Sl'HAKKVKR, Superintendent of Public Instruction. Sir: Your letter of recent date, to the Attor ney (icneral. enclosing letter of T. K. Kitoliey, Utorney lor the school directors of Forest eountv, and oilier papers rela tive to the ejection or h. r.. Mily.inirer, Superintendent o' the Public Schools of said conntv, and reHiie-titiir an opinion upon the facts 'herein slated, has been referred to me. It appears from the letter, allidavits and other paers tiled in t'e case, that a convention ot ihe school directors 01 for est eountv was held in Tioucta on Tues day, Mav iind, lS'l. for the purpose of electing a Count v Superintendent. There were several cnndidales for the position, but tiie oitlcial return shows I hat of the Sit directors pro-cut iVJ, more than a ma jority of all pre-ent, voted tor K. K. S'itjinger, who was thereupon declared elected. The ollicial return also shciws that his salary was fixed at the rate of lilleen hundred dollars (floHO) per year, and this return iscerliried to by the sec retaries of the eonvention, as required by law. Sim that time Mr. Stitzinger has olllciatcd as County Suneriniendeut, and has performed his dutiis and received his salary in accordance with the otlicial return originally tiled in your depart ment. Now, alter a lapse of two years, the charge is mailo by certain school direc tors of Forest county, through their at torney, that the original return was im properly made out and that the conven tion w hich elected Mr. Stitzinger did not, in fact, fix any compensation whatever and therliire, he is entitled to only one thousand dollars if loot)) fwraunum uudcr the law ; and it is rtquested that ho lie compelled to refund the amount in excess of that sum, which has already been paid him, to tin school directors of For est county. In support of this conten tion a new return is riled, to which is attached theatlidavii of the secretaries of the convention in which they state that the original return was detective in that the convention did not tix any salary, but that the words "lifteen hundred dol lars"were filled in by mistake or error. The iiiestiun raised is a novl one, and a carelul research disclosia no precedent, hut in view of the fact that the oiUinal return bears every mark of regularity, and the further fact that there is no alle gation of fraud, nor is there any excuse offered for the long delay on the part of those now complainiuir, it seems to me that you are justified in taking no action at this late day. It would, lu my opin ion, establish a dangerous precedent if those upon whom is devolved the duty of making returns in cases of this kind were to la) permuted, after a silence of two years, to decrease or increase the sal ary ot a Superintendent upon a plea of mistake or error. The la-t Legislature passed an act, which was signed by the liovernor on the 17th day or May, liml, prescribing a different method ol fixing the salaries of county superintendents, and, inasmuch as the tcrui of olllce for which Mr. Stitz inger was elected is so nearly at an end, and the mistake or error complained of is directly attributable to the action of those in control of the eonvention w hich elect ed him, I am satisfied that your depart ment ought not to be asked to move in this matter. 1, therelore, advise you that, alter a careful consideration of the facts submit ted to me,I am ot opinion that you would be warranted in refusing to Lea party to the nresertproceedings.and that the com plainants must seen their remedy in an other tribunal. I return herewith the papers submit ted. Respectfully, (Signed) Fhkiikiuc W. Fi.kitz. Deputy Attorney lieneral. In the opinion ol the Deputy Attorney General, tho department of State Supt. Shaelfer. is not the proper tribunal fur this case, and he advices him to lake no action In the matter. It is proper to state that the directors were disposed to try this mil lor method of adjusting the mat ter, in which tho secretaries of the con vention acquiesced by their sworn state mint of the facts. There was no dispo sition to le harsh or to invoke the strong arm of the law, but that seems to be the only alternative left to the school directors of tho county, and it is now for them to aay w hether they desire to pursue that course, or allow the balanc of I'rOO to go with the other 100u already lost to the county. In the matter of delay, it should ue reinemoereu mat more than a year bad elapsed befoie the directors of the county became aware that such a certiti cate was on file in the Slate school do partiuent. It is slated in a recent Pittsburg dis patch that that city may furnish the op posing candidate to Joseph C. Sibley when he comes up for re-election next year in the Venango-Warren-Meicer Forest-Elk District. J. W, I.ee, trustee of tho Pure Oil Company, is credited with intending to make the fight. Mr, Lee Is a former citizen of Venango coun ty and represented tne Warren-Venango district in the State Senate. Be has been living in Pittsburg for a nuniberof years, When Mr. Lee attempts that Job he will very soon realize that a seat in Congress will mt be readily ob allied by attempt ing to down Joseph C. Sibley. Kane He publican. All of which is news to us of the '-Mb. TiiKKk are two women in the United States who enjoy a peculiar distinction, They may use the mails without paying Tor the privilege. lheso women are widows of former Presidents. They are Mrs. Julia I). Grant and Mrs. Lucretia A. Garfield. All mail matter sent by Mrs. Garlicld and Mrs. Grant, under their respective written autograph signa tures, and all mail matter sent to these two ladies, will be carried free during the rest of their lives. 'o signatures or marks are necessary to Die free carriage of mail matter to either of these ladies, the ad dress being sufficient. Mrs. Gar field baa enjoyed the privilege since 1S.S1. and Mrs. Grant since liNt. Athens. I have already referod tc the poverty of the kingdom ot Greece but this was the first place I ever nine in contact with de preciated currency. I made the discovery in a way surprising to inyselfyatid I ant sure was no less so to the shopkeeper who let me into the secret. I bad gone into a shop to buy a roll of films for :. y camera. The price asked was six and one half drachmas, or about $1.30 of our ir.onev. As that was moie thau double the price paid at home I began to "Jew1 hint down. As tho shop keeper spoke very imierfect English I had to resort to the use of pencil and sigus, a never fail ing resource in foipign lands. Finally I discovered that the 10 franc gold piece I had. worth J2 0 in our niouev, was worth 10 drachmas or f.20 in Greek pa I er money. 1 he price is always the same whether paid in gold, silver or paper money. 1 then exchanged Ihe nold 10 francs for It! paper drachmas, paid for the films and had the purhasiugequivolentof !! francs left. So instead of paying fl.. lor my films I roallyonly paid 10 cents. After that I exchanged my gold for paper money. I discovered the same condition of affairs in Italy only in a less degree. And just here I might say a word about foreign monies. Unless one lias an unlimited bank account he had better familiarize himself w ith the coin of the realm the first thing when he enters a country, otherwise he will wondet what becomes of all his money. These shop keepers are not above taking advantage of ones ignorance when the opportunity presents itself. Their coins are generally very targe in size and their value inverse ly proportional to their size, so that n hen a purchase is made and paid for with a small gold piece aud lie gets a whole handfull of coin back in change one very naturally thinks be hits got the best of tne Lai gain sure. But w hen be counts up this change at its true value his face begins to lengthen aud he con cludes he has been "done up" by a very innocent look iDg heathen. As a rule the values ot native money is easily learned and one ran soon acquire the ability to take care of himself in making change. The exception is in Turkey .'una partic ularly in Jerusalem where they have such a variety of coins so dimly marked and many of which do not pass outside of the city, that special care must bo taken. The best wav is to demand change in rrench coin which can always be ob tained, American, Kiiglisb, and French monies are current everywhere. Tho streets of old Athens are character istic of all Oriental cities, very narrow aud exceedingly crooked. Tho central part ol Boston is h fair samplo of eastern streets. The houses also are small and htar the stamp of eastern architecture. But the newer part of Ihe city bears an entirely dillerent aspect. The streets are wide and well paved and the houses are handsome in design and material. Many of them are built of white marble and are adorned w ith statuary in the lawn, on the porches and i n the rool. One of the most marked in this respect is that of Mrs. Schleiumn, who, with her late hus band, have been widely uoted for their areheologieal researches in the ruins of of A thens, Troy, Ac. Her house roof bears quite a number of beautiful statues and is said to be the most handsome house In the city. Our first visit was to tho Stadion w here the ancient Pauathenian games were held. This is a natural amphitheater and is 670 feet long, 10! feet wide and was sur rounded by tiers ol seats that would ac commodate about 50,(ion people. It was built in 3.!t) B. C. by Lyeurgus from tho beautiful marble found in the near by mountains and was the scene of somo of the greatest festivitives of the age. Later on it was neglected and during the dark ages of Greecian history this marble was burned fur lime, and the place became liilled with debris. In !!') a wealthy Greek banker of Alexandria undertook the lak of its reconstruction on the same plan of the old one, using only Fenteli con marble in it. Already the work is about half done, and w hen it is finished will produce a very imposing cflect with its extent and the bight of its long rows of marble seals. The goal ar.J the start ing posts were found in the excavating, in good condition and are set up in their proper places in the new Stadion. Many persons will recall the re-inauguration ol the Athenian games a lew years ago iu which the American athletes took part, carrying off several prizes, among them was throwing tbe discus the National Greek game. King George took an ac tive Interest in these sports. Passing on a short distance to the west we come to the temple of the Olympian Zeus of which only sixteen of the orig inal one hundred huge Corinthinlan Pentelic marble columns remain. These columns are fiftv-six feet six inches bigb aud aliout five and oue-balf feet in diameter. The Inundation has alt been laid bare and shows it to be tho sec ond largest of all the ancient Greek tem ples, exceeded in size by the temple Di ana alone. This uiagnificont Templet which excited tbe admiration of all be holders, and about which early writers bad much to say, was begun by Pcisis- tratos In 530 B. C, but was not finally completed till l:S0 A. D. by Hadrian, the Homan. Near this Is the arch of Ha drian, built early in the second century, and is well preserved. It was built to separate the old Greek city from the then modern Ilotnan city and bears an tnscnplilion on either aide : on the one side-"Tnis Is Athens, the old city of The seus,:' on the other, "This Is tho city of Hadrian and not of Theseus." The Arch is fifty-nine feet bigb, forty -four feet wide with a twenty foot opening. The tnper part is like a triple window, onco filled with thin marble slabs. We are now almost at the eastern foot of the Acropolis but in order to ascend this prominent point in Athens we must go around to the west side where alone it is poss bl to ascend. A good carriage road has been constructed as far as It is possible to drive. About midway to the top we dismounted to visit one of tho most interesting places In all the city, to christian people at least, Mars Hill This is a steep ledge ol rooks difficult to ascend. On the top of this was where the city fathers used to meet to discuss mat ters, especially the religious aliairs of the State, which had been committed to them. It was hero Fatil met this senate, w hile in session doubtless, which gave iiiiu the opportunity to deliver one of the most magnificent orations on record. From this point almost the whole city was in view, particularly that part where the temple and palaces of relgious wor ship were. Her we rested for a time and w hile one of our number read "aid's address from the Acts of tho Apostles ilTch.), we endeavored to pictuiecnt the scene enacted here nearly twenty cen turies ago. Going on up tho kteep ascent we passed over a long serle of stone steps, through tho Propyl:1 and were soon standing ou the famed Acropolis. This Oibralter like rotk of oiysialino lime stone rises precipitously to a hight of &O0 feet above tbe sea. It breaks off al most perpendicularly on every side, ex cept the west, and tbe plateau on the top contains about four acres. Upon this plateau the ancient Greeks built tholr chief places of worship and the most elaborate and sacred forms of their religion wore celebrated. Tho building of lite chief attraction is the Par thenon which occupies tho highest point of the Acropolis, and although now only a very small part of what it nee was, all.) is an ininc-sing structure and is the most perfect monument of ancient art. It is Ihe product ol the Golden Age ol Pericles and was opened for public wor ship in 4:lS It. C, during the Pansthen lan games, A large part of it has been entirely destroyed diirin 1 the various sieges th it have taken 1 lueo there and only the platform remains to show how large it once was, and from the part still standing to give an i.'.ea of its graudure when first constru. :ed. I shall net here attempt to doseril a the Parthenon nor the other smaller temples that grace this his toric Mount lor that has already been well done by writers in various niaga sines. Suffice to say that the reality ex celled my former conceptions both of the place itself and the outlook. Mark Twain has beautifully described the soono Imiii the Belvedere in "Athens by Moonlight." Tho viow, whether by daylight or moon light, is one that never can be forgotten. Immediately at one's feet lies tho w hole city spread out before him as if looking down from a captive balooii anchored at .V)0 feet. Ou every side rise hills or sharp mountain peaks w hoso names are preserved in Greecian prose and song, while In the distance the eye roams over ti e land of Leomdas and the Spartans, Marathon and S.1U1111S. Closo by, 011 a slight elevation, the Pnyx, so near that tho voice could easily bo heard, is tbe plat orm from which Demos' hetien, Soc rates, Pericles, Lyeurgus and a long list of others discussed themes of importance lo (he state ami swayed the citizers with their eoquetice and wisdom. What a host of names conies up to the student of classic history as he looks out over these plains and hi is. How vivid and teal does all that become which was once but s dim, hazy dream. What a place for nil-dilation and gathering up frag ments of past history learned and weav ing them Into one harmonious fabric. Only too brief was the time allotted for the contemplation of these scenes. The Acropolis is not all of Athens, though largely so, and we must hasten on. J. V. Mi'Asincii. May 11, l'.Wl. A max should have complete mastery of himself, and see to it that his habits do not obtain mastery over him. When one becomes confirmed in tho use of certain Irugs or narcotics, ho is in the basest kind of servitude. He has established the relation ol master and slave, and his apetite is in absolute control. A man may conipiain bitterly of ihe tyranny of custom, and resist the authority of law, and still bow meekly and humbly to the mandates of a corn cob pipe or the dicta tions of a drink of whis I'unx'y Spirit.
