MALTREATED STORE CLERKS.
They Are Subjected to Grent Injustice
by Th0uGhtIcss Women
shoppers.

The reputation which some large
stores get for being disobliging to their
customers or having uncivil clerks
could in the ma. jority of cases be traced
directly back to the shoppers item
selves, writes Edward Box in Ladies'
Home journal. l make no claim of
perfection for the clerks who stand be-
hind the counters of our great stores
where women shop. They are only
common mortals, full of faults. But,
considering what they are called upon
to 90 through and endure at the hands
of thoughtless women, the constant
wonder is that they are so civil and
obliging. If the truth could be known
it would be found that they suffer far
more than they inhict suffering. If the
roll could 10 called of hardy working,

lions because of ill-founded complaints
made by Influential" customers whose
accounts the firm could not afford to
lose. it would be roll of disgrace to
American shoppers. The girls behind
the counter are human-aIthouGh from
the actions of some women we might
believe otherwise-human in their
faults, but also in their finer feelings.
Very often they represent better fam
lilies, better breeding, than that which
is revealed to them from the other side
of the counter.

in too high a key to be followed by the
choir and congregation, and had to try
again. a second attempt ended, like
the first, in failure. "Oh, for ten thou

came the opening words for the third

THE ISSUES ARE NATIONAL.
Senator Hanna's Views Regarding
the, Ohioi Campaign.

Columbus. O., Oct. 6.-Senator
Hanna said in a recent interview here:
1.-The Ohio campaign will be fought
on purely national issues. 1t must be,
for we have had four years Of as good
administration Of state affairs as we
ever had.
1.-THE democrats, 1 see, are inclined
to make a hullabaloo of the letter writ
ten by Judge Nash to Governor Bush
nell in January, 1898. Judge Nash
wrcite that without consulting me, but
he was sincere about it. 1t expressed
his sentiments. The last question can
not be used against US. No state in
the union has mere drastic laws on
trusts than Ohio has, and if Mclean
were elected with a democratic legisla-
ture at his back he c1uld mo- do more
than has been done by the republicans.
Besides, trusts are net wholly harmful
combinations.
''The democrats will fight cur ma
tional foreign policy. The administra-
tons policy in the orient, as already
outlined. must be maintained. Manila

Hong Kong is to England

factor next year %
"Oh, no; Mr.. Roosevelt was greatly
pleased with his reception at Akron.
But he has the faculty of recognizing

his state demands him, which he can
not ignore. He has been urged TO
come back to Ohio in the campaign
and may do so. 1 shall continue on

PROFESSOR MARsH's ORCHIDS.
An Explanation Why They Were APP
praised at So Low a Valuation

1 New Haven, Conn.,, Oct Elm Yale
university circles today there was can-
siderable discussion over the low val
uation placed by the appraisers of the
estate of the late Professor o. c. Marsh
upon the fine collection of orchids
which Professor Marsh had gathered.
1t is well known that Professor
Marsh's collection Of orchids was one
of the finest, if not the finest private
collection in the country. 1t com
prised many specimens CT varieties,
of which few are in existence and
Professor Marsh had the honcr Of
having had one variety named after
him by an English authority. Profess
scr Marsh's speciality was the exotic
orchids, and it was commonly sup
posed that in the accumulation of his
horticultural treasures Professor
Marsh spent for some single specimens
almost as much as the whole collec-
ton is now inventoried at. There are
1884 specimens which with three
pitcher plants are inventoried at
D l,0O
The executors of Professor Marsh's
will are Professor George J. Brush of
the Yale Shefield scientific school and
William w. Farnam, the treasurer of
Yale university. Professor Brush in
talking about the figures of the in
ventory as far as the orchids are con-
cerned, said tonight:
81 know little or nothing about or
chids myself and l dent suppose that
the appraisers know much more. In
valuing the orchids and everything
else. however, they were guided by the
opinions of experts, the expert in the
orchid case being Mr.. Ford, who was !
Professor Marsh's gardener. l don
doubt that in some instances Professor
Marsh paid high prices for orchids and
other things, but you know that when
it comes to any one outside of col
Iectors and enthusiasts placing value
upon them it is a different thing
Fashions ard fads change. even IN
orchids, and an orchid that might

valueless today. AS it was necessary
that an inventory be filed by a certain
date some valuation had to be put on
the plants, and I have no doubt that
the appraisers did the best they could
under the circumstances.
professor Farnum and myself as
executors have approved their report
AS we had decided that the collection
must be sold we put it in the hands OF
the American Art association, who,
believe, rank the highest in their line
in the country. If the orchids are
worth more than they are inventoried' /

VOLUNTEER OFFICERS ACCUSED
Charges of Inefficiency Not Sustained
By Board of Examination

Washington. Oct 6.-Charges of in
efficiency were recently brought
against Captain Crossman and Second
Lieutenants Young and Warner of thu
Twenty-ei infantry, U. S. V. The
accuser was Lieutenant Col Leonard
Of that regiment, who served in the
New York volunteers in the war with
Spain. The three officers accused had
served also in the war with Spain in
regiments organized in Pennsylvania,
their home state. Governor Stone OF
Pennsylvania made a protest against
the charges and came to Washington
to see the secretary of war about the
case. The war department decided to
give the three officers an examination
as to their qualifications, and the re-
port of the examining beard has just
been received. Captain Crossman and
Lieutenant Long passed successfully,
but Lieutenant Warner failed. It was
reported to 1.-THE department, however,
that Lieutent Warner had been i'll, and
