allowed to carry two cups. two saucers, large
porcelain vase, crucifix and a Bible, and he
allowed to have them in the coach.
AS the coach rolled into Twenty-sixth-st, at
the hospital. Foster suddenly opened the door

Why don't you drive him into the grounds
That's the only way"
Curran slammed the door shut. climbed upon
the box and drove into the Bellevue yard.
Foster was out with a bound. and was seized
/ and dashed through the crowd Of attendants
and visitors and, stin clngng to the Bible and
crucifx ran toward the Morgue. Suddenly he
dropped and kneeling upon the Bible held the
crucifx in front of him and began to pray
aloud. The four attendants were upon him
and though he struggled hard he was subdued
and put in the insane pavilion.
Foster has written poetry which II Is said

NEW YORK, Nov. 24.-ln a sermon on
bribery Rev. Percy stickney Grant Of the
Church Of the Ascension has characterized
tipping as a species Of evil
After Rlluding to the ohiciRl bribery that
prevails in the Orient, Mr.. Grant repeated
the story OF the recent disclosures in ST.
Louis and said conditions there and in
many other cities were only the earliest
phase Of what New York passed twenty or
thirty years ago.
IT would seem" he said. that the older
and decaying nations have not a monopoly
Of the civil social vice. The same thing
operates also in business and a young man
in business finds frequently that he can
receive money II he will lend his inhu-
enoe or good name OF act in a certain way,
and many seem TO expect something beyond
their salaries.
I'VE smile and charge UP such things TO
foreign ways or a heather religion" he
said. but whom shall we charge IT I'D TO
that young men in business are not content
with the salaries they get, and will take
commissions and gifts in q business way
from anybody? What 10 the state OF mind
that can allow II? Can it be absolutely
just and honest TO the interest OF the
employer? no. The chief interest is ones
own pocket. and what wonder that defalca-
ton, enbezzloment and thievery take
place"
He said servants in hotels and restau-
rants expected the tips and judged and
served the patrons according TO the tips
they got.
