Uarrisiu-ho, P July SI, Hull. J
Hon. N. C. 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

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.

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
