The Monument CONTRIBUTIONS.


of the wsshi On Monument Society, while
not denying any Of the material statements in
an article which appeared in TsR STAR of the
18th ult-, relative TO the manner of collecting
contributions in the Patent Office, desires %
society obtained the permission of the Com mis-
stoner Of Patents to place contribution boxes
in the model room Of the Patent Office for the
reception OF such contributions as might be
made by visitors. At the same time the society
appointed person connected with the effice
named TO collect and turn over, at certain
times, all contributions, and this duty has been
faithfully discharged By the same party ever
since, although he is no longer an employee of
the Patent once. Mr.. Brent says the society
held and still holds the view that these pArtic-
uiar boxes are virtually in the custody Of the
Patent Office the same a. public property of
much greater value on exhibition in the model
room, and that necessarily the same eff ce is
responsible for the keeping of their con-
tents. The society ts conTiaced that although
money has several times been distracted from
the boxes, the Patent once has used due dill
gence in their care, and that therefore the soci-
ETY. has no fault to find in the premises. Mr..
Brent argues that glass boxes are preferable to
those in which the contributions cannet be
seen, and that the strongest and most intricate
box would be no insurmountable obstacle to
any person or persons bent on rifing it,
We are inclined TO differ from MI. Brent on
TINS latter point, for obvious reasons. With the
present boxes the larceny of their contents is a
comparatively easy matter, and could be ac-
comp1shed in about five minutes, as we stated,
by SIMPLY uRserew1ng the boxes from the
foundation on which they rest. what man
has done man can do" These boxes have been
robbed in number of instances, and the same
thing Is liable to occur at intervals as long as
they are so vulnerable to the assaults of Dill
Ierers- Now, as the boxes are quite safe in the
daytime, and these thefts have always taken
place at night, we would suggest that on the
closing of the Patent Office daily they be re-
moved and locked up in some safe place in the
building. By this means we think their safety
would be almost If not quite assured. 1t seems
strange that any American, either by birth or
mean act as stealing the contributions towards
building a monument Tor the Father OF his
Country.
