Morris A. Thomas.

The Civil-Service Reform Association, and
Congressman Findlay, Democrat more in
name than otherwise. seem to be outraged
over the appointment of Morris a. Thomas,
of Baltimore, as Indian Inspector, and have
formulated some charges against him.
Senator German had an interview with
Secretary Lamar, to whom he said that he had
nothing to take back in the matter OF the
Morris A. Thomas appointment, and so Tar
as he was concerned he saw no objection to
the furnishing by the department of the names
of all those who desired the appointment OF
Mr. Thomas He said that Mr.. Thomas Will
have the support of every Democratic Repre-
sentative from Maryland with the exception
of Mr.. Finday. Senator German says ne
indorsed Mr.. Thomas because he knew HIM
to be faithful party man, and possessing
both integrity and capacity. The charges
made against him are not new, but have been
hashed over on several previous occasions.
Mr. Thomas had been appointed police Justice
by Gov. Carroll after these charges had been
made against him. thus showing that nc I'M
portance was attached to them. 'Ihese self
styled reformers,n continued Mr.. German,
''are continually making war against all active
Democrats, but had not word to say against
various offensive partisan Republicans now
holding office in Maryland who have been
rated for many years as desperate and I'M
scrupulous political managers, acting IN con-
slant violation of every principle OF civIl-ser-
vice reform.

Fruits and Flowers.

Another large contribution of flowers, and
a small lot of grapes and pears, were sent to
the Flower Mission, Baltimore, yesterday
morning. But for the rainy and disagrecable
weather Thursday we are sure the donations
would have been more numerous, as the la
dies of the community have shown an interest
in the charitable work of the Mission. The
contributors this week were Mrs. Levi Pfefer,
Mrs. Mary Fowler, Mrs. Frank Manger, Mrs.
Jas. A. c. Bond, Miss Ida Lockard, Miss
Shellman and Miss Mills.
The Mission is very grateful for these dona-
tions, as the ADVOCATE and former contribu
tors have been assured by Miss e. A. Smith,
the chairman, and on next Thursday after
noon let the contributions be numerous. Let
every lady who can spare few flowers, or a
few punches of grapes, or few pears, send
them to the ADVOCATE Office prior to o clock.
Make note of the time and don't hesitate to
contribute because you have but little to send.
Many contributions will make large aggre-
gate, and will materially aid the Mission in
their good work in cheering and alternating
the sick among the poor and in the hospitals
at Baltimore. Theirs is work of love and
charity, and they accept with gratitude any
contributions of fruits and flowers that the
charitably inclined will make
