Patent Suit.

BOSTON. Mass. Feb. 27.-Judge Brown

cd down an opinion this morning against
the American Bell Telephone Company on

bill.
II is understood that an appeal will be
made from the decision and that it will
be carried to the United States Supreme
Court on this appeal. The court room
WAS well filled, counsel on both sides be-
ing present in force, while the Bell and
other corporations were well represented.
The suits were the Bell Company
against the National Telephone Manufac-
turing Company and others and against
the Century Telephone Company. These
suits were brought 10 restrain respon-
dents from selling, using. or making tel
ephoHes. or telephone apparatus with the
microphone attachment, and to account
to the Bell Company for past use, man
ufaeture, and sales. on the ground that
such use. manufacture, or sale was an
infringement of patent 1850. issued No

ALLIES SUCCEEDS VANDERBILT.
Nominated ms Assistant Secretary of
the Treasury.

Milton T.. Allies. private secretary to
Secretary Gage, was yesterday nominated
by the President to be Assistant Secre-
tary of the Treasury to SUI ceed Frank A.
Vanderlip. Mr. Allies was born in Ohio
thirty-four years ago and has been for
fourteen years in the Treasury Depart
ment. working his way from a clerk at
n small salary to the position which he is
now to occupy. He has proven himself
possessed of executive ability of n high
order and capable of grasping and deal
ing with financial matters of great i'm
portance. He was priva re secretary to
Assistant Secretary wike and shortly
after Mr.. Gage became Secretary of the
Treasury he made Mr.. Allies his private
secretary. He has upon several occa-
sions represented the Treasury Depart
ment upon important commissions and
has a reputation as writer on finance.
de is graduate of the law school OF the
National University of this city and a
member Of the National Geographic So

his college life that he could not bear the
thought of having to leave it for a life or
sordid and disagreeable toll. Or he may
have convinced himself that the theft of
the money would be. in the end. profitable
to hiR. by enabling him to earn more mon
ey after graduation. In that case. of
course, his reasoning was exceedingly fall
lacious. y college graduate who is a
sneak thief is not likely to take as high
position as a non-graduate with clean
record and a clean conscience. Moreover
the numerous graduates of all sorts of
schools who search in vain for positions
are living proofs that a diploma is not the
passport to a comfortable salary which
it may at one time have been.
The two ends to be gained by a college
course are special training and general
development. Though the modern cur
riculum affords but little of the former,
the general atmosphere of the college. its
scholarly habit of thought. its opportuni-
ties of contact with different individual
ties. do really tend to the development of
character. The young man in question.
however, must have had peculiar idea
of the sort of character he wished to de-
velop if he thought he could sacrifice
common honesty for the sake of it.
ton of the value of college course But
a great many parents overestimate it in
another way. They sacrifice their own
rights interests, ard feelings for the sake
of giving their children training which
they fendly hope will be beneficial; and
they overlook THE fact that in thus re-
ceiring everything without labor or
thought, the child is missing another kind
of development more necessary than any
mere intellectual growth. They deny
themselves work hard, give up their own
desires for the sake OF the child, who.
placed in luxurious surroundings at a
critical time of life. easily learns to ac-
cept and to demand all that the parent
can give. Then the father and mother
wonder why the child for whom they
have given up so much does not show
any disposition to help them. 1t is a
wrong education which is the matter. If
that child had been encouraged. as any
generous boy or girl may easily be. to
earn a part of the cost of the school or
parent the good of the education would
have been greater, and the parent would
have had some of the happiness which
was rghtfully his. There is no use in
making any particular form of develop
meut a fetch, to which all the good and
pleasant things of life must be sacrificed;
and while children wrongly educated may
not have acquired habits of dishonesty.
they do acquire habits of laziness. or self
indulgence, or dependence. and lack of
sympathy for others which are almost as
had
