editor Of the HERALD saw fit to make a
purely personal business trip to the
Sound. Since the Bulletin thinks such
a trip deserving editorial comment,
1t may be worth while for the HERALD to
repeat what almost everyone, except the
Bulletin. already knows: The Editor OF
the HERALD is not a candidate for any
salaried Office in the county or state, and
has never been.
Furthermore, even the Bulletin knows
that the HERALD and its editor are
strongly in favor Of F.. X. Hawkins for

The press Of the state is agitating itself
over the question, "Sbould female school
teachers marryw No difficulty is ex-
perienced in proving that women have
just as much right to marry and just as
much right to teach as have men. But
that does not seem to the HERALD to be
at all the point involved. The question
is, sis it best for the taught that women
who teach should many?" 1t will be
admitted, doubtless, that women make
better mothers than men. and that mat
rimony usually brings maternity; that
the maternal feeling is of all others the
best qualification teacher can have
and, yet, it is this very instinct that pre-
vents her from discharging, ascompletely
as a man can do, the arduous duties OF a
teacher OF schools. Surely the conclus-
ion is self-evident: Every mother should
insist that her teachings be confined to
her own family, unless absolute necessity
forces her into larger field.

SEARCHING FOR pRoNEs.

The Assistant Secretaries of State have been
directed by Secretary Gresham to examine
more thoroughly than has heretofore been GUS
tomary when a new Administration came into
power, into the personnel of the State Depart
ment. with view, it is understood of deter
mining the fitness of the various employees
for the positions now held by them. Accord
ing to an official in the State Department, this
action is being taken for the purpose of weed
ing out those in the Department who hold
their places because of IAN amiable tradition"
and not because of any particular ability they
have shown in the discharge of their duties.
Whether there are any such employees in the
State Department has not yet been determined
by the searchers after this knowledge. The
official mentioned also says that the instruc-
tions issued by Secretary Gresham are the only
basis for the growing rumors, following closely
ON the enforced resignation of DR.. st. Clair az
Chief of the Consular Bureau. that q number
of similar changes will be made. 1t is also re-
ported on what appears to be good authority,
that tradition and precedent will not obtain in

ans incumbency, and that theg2nwiil hereafter

NEW RAPrD-FIRE GUN.
Sponsers Invention Successfully Tested at
Hartford, Conn.


. Reports were received at the War Depart
ment last week of recent tests at Hartford,
Conn.,, of the Sponsel rapd-fre one-pouDder
gun. These reports show that the tests, while
severe, and in strict conformity with regular
service conditions were highly satisfactory. and
have proved this new American in vention TO be
a formidable rival of modern weapons of this
class. The tests to which the gun was sub
jected related particularly to its rapidly and
ease of operation. Thirty shots minute were
fred from the gun with an inexperienced
feeder The experts present estimated that
with trained crew 80 to 40 shots could be dis
charged in the space of minute. The work
ing of all parts of the gun was smooth and per-
feet. No defective ammunition was used, as
the gun had previously demonstrated its eff
cheney in this particular. The tests also showed
the gun to be very effective up to $500 yards.
From the reports it appears that the inven-
tor Charles w. Sponsel. an employe of the Pratt
& Whitney works at Hartford, has added ssv-
eral important improvements to the gun.
These Improvements are in and about the
breeeh- block, and consist mainly in reduction
and sim pifcation of the number of parts of the
tested in a few days at the Indian Head prov
ing grounds by board of Naval officers. This
test will be a most thorough one and will fully
determine the guns efficiency for actual SER
vice. 1t is claimed for the Sponsel gun that in
addition to its being as rapid and effective ss
other similar inventions, the comparatively
small number and sim plicty of its parts greatly
reduce its cost of manu- facture.

WAS 1T SUICIDE7
Frank x. Ward Crushed under the Wheels
of an Electric Car.


Mr.. Frank Z. Ward one Of the best known
business men in Washington. was instantly
killed by being run over by a car on the Bright
wood Electric Railroad, shortly after o'clock
on Thursday evening" April 8, and his body
mangled beyond recogniTion. The car
coming down the Bright wood road on It's way to
Washington, and as il approached the Rock
Creek road the motormsn rang the warning
bell for the crossing. A few feet from the
crossing Is an iron trolley post. When the car
got within few feet of the post man was
seen to fall across the track. The motormsn
instantly reversed his motor and soon brought
the car to u standstill, but not in time to pre-
vent the front wheels of the heavy car from
partly passing over the body of the unfortunate
man.
With the assistance Of two or three passen.
gers and several persons living Ia the vicinity
of the accident. the body was removed FROM
under the wheels of the car. Life was extinct,
the mans death having evidently been instan-
taneous. policeman came up, ordered the
patrol wagon and the body was brought to the
Washington morgue. From papers found in
the pockets of the dead man il was discovered
that Frank z. Ward was the man killed. The
motorman was at once arrested. although no
blame possibly be thrown upon him for
the terrible tragedy. He says that his ear
was moving slowly, he had given the usual
warning for crossing. and was Just about to
turn on the power when the man threw him.
self in front of the car and across the track.
The man was evidently drunk, because he
staggered considerably, and whether he was so
drunk that he fell across the track Or threw
himself deliberately in 'front.' of the car, Of
course he could not tell.
Ward had an evensful career in Washing
ton. He was a soldier in q New York regi-
ment during the war; and afterwards enlisted
in the Regular Army. He was attached TO the
Signal Corps. and was for some time stationed
at Fort Myer. He started dairy business
after leaving the Signal Corps and made lots OK
money. He married into an excellent family,
and was exceedingly prosperous. He estab-
lished the popular dairy lunch rooms and bulls
large building in the center of the city for
bis dairy headquarters. Prosperity was too
much for him aud he got to drinking. and no
went down hill little faster than he had
climbed il. He got into an alteration with
Morris Adler in saloon on Pennsylvania
avenue two or three years ago and shot him.
Adler died from his wounds and Ward was
tried for murder, but after sensational trial
was acquitted. He promised the Judge when
the trial was over to leave liquor alone. but ID
was not long before he was seen intoxicated on
the streets. His wife had him arrested several
times for cruelty, and has suit for divorce
pending in ths courts st the present time.
Ward was q Free Mason of high degree and
was also member of the Order of Eiks.
