A FAMOUS EULOGY,

OF all the eulogies in literature
there is none more beautiful than
the following upon Gen, Robert e.
Lee, 1t fell from the silver
tongue of that eloquent Georgian,
Senator Benjamin H, Hill, and IS
said to have been extempore:
When our future historian comes
to survey the character of Lee, he
will hnd it rising like a huge noun
tain above the undulating plane of
humanity, and he will have to lift
his eyes far toward heaven to
catch its summit He possessed
every virtue Of the other great
commanders without their vices
He was a foe without hate, friend
without treachery, a soldier with
out cruelty and a victim without
murmuring, He was a public ollic-
err without vices, a private citizen
without a wrong, neighbor with
out reproach, a christian without
hypocrisy and a man without guilt,
He was a Caesar without his am
bition, Frederick without his tyr
amy, Napoleon without his selfish
ness, and Washington without his
reward,
He was as obedient to authority
as a true king, He was as gentle
as a woman in lie, pure and mod
est as a virgin in thought, watchful
as Roman vestal in duty, SUBJ
missive to law as Socrates and
grand in battle as Achilles,

POINTED PARAGRAPHS,

A girl never tries to extinguish
the spark as long as a man has
money to burn,
Some people are like one-legged
milk-stools-no good unless sat

The man who never argues with
women, children and fools has but
few arguments.
A millionaire has a better show
in this world than a theatrical man
ager,
The swan always sings before 1t
dies and death sometimes ends the
mosquitoes song,
When a wife puts on too many
airs the atmosphere of her home IS
not what it should be,
An insurance policy often makes
a man more valuable after death
than during his life,
Don't think because a man is al

COLLECTORS AND THE CIVIL SERFICt LAW

IMPORTANT QUESTIONS SUBMITTED BY THE CON
MISSION TO ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS KENNA
Washington, Oct. 16.-The case Of the Collector Of
Y,..rr.l Revenue az Richmond, Va. whose removal
of deputy collectors just after his assumption OF
oesoe crea.ed much interest at the time and against
whom charges OF violation of the Civi Service laws
we're made is now before Attorney-General Nc
Kenna for decision points submitted by the
Civil Service Commission 10 the status OF deputy
collectors The issue important. as involving the
status Of all deputy internal revenue collectors
The questions submitted by the Commission follow
Are deputy collectors Of internal revenue oficers
of the United States?
Does the term of Office OF such deputies cease oy
reason OF the going out Of offce OF the collector
Of oface by newly appointed collector?
Are they properly in the classined service ana
subject TO the provisions of the Civil Service act
and rules?
The Commission, in brief transmitted 10 the
Attorney General. submits that 1t would certainly
appear that deputy collector is not only officer
under the most approved definitions and under the
decisions made by eminent jurists hut that the
statutes themselves expressly and distinctly recoe
nize deputy collector as United states officer
As 70 the second question. II is argued that tho
deputy holds over until MS successor Is duly aI-
pointed and that an affirmative act not only on the
part OF the collector himself. but of the Commits
sioner Of Internal Revenue. is sine qua non In
vacating the Office OF duly appointed deputy. AS
10 being classified. the conclusion Of the Commits
sion follows: That the provisions OF Section LOB,
Revised Statutes and Of the Civil Service act
of other statutes relating TO the appointment or
deputy collectors Of internal revenue that the
Presidents action in directing ;heir classification
was following the clear intent of Congress as indi
ca ted by the precedents established by Congress
ICED by the direct language OF the statute and that
this authority has been duly ana regularly eAer-
cised and deputy collectors Of internal revenue are
IN the classified service subtec; 10 Inc PROVISIONS
Of the civil Service act
