Facts in the Case of
Thomas w. GiImer.
ATTACKED THE RINGSTERS
Then Perry Heath Issued the
Order Changing His Place
and Lowering His Pay.

In making their report on the Post
office scandals, Attorneys Charles J.
Bonaparte and Holmes Conrad have
verbally called the attention of the
President to what they believe to have
been a gross injustice toward the man
who made the original discoveries of
wrongdoing In the department. and as
an outcome of whose labors thirty per-
sons have been indicted and more than
$500. 900 worth of graft has already been
unearthed.
This man, Thomas w. Gilmer. an OBJ
scure Treasury expert, instead of being
promoted and given credit for his work.
was actually reduced in salary from
81 500 to $1,000 per year, and transferred
to another position. officially discredit-
ed IN the eyes of his co-laborers as
punishment for having made himself
obnoxious" to those whose offices he
had been ordered to investigate
Grafters Complain.
The complaints Of his obnoxious
methods" and his "brusqueness of man
ner." came from various offices where
his duties had called him. One Of these
emanated from the Department Of JUS
tice. where later the disbursing officer
was discovered to have been an en-
DeZZler. AnQInef came lIOLl the OlllCe

bia, where clerk Watson was afterward
found to have gotten away with $4,000
Auditor Castle, of the Postofiice De-
partment. who resigned the other day
under pressure, threw a brick in the
form of a statement that Gilmer was
new to the postal service. and raised
many irrelevant questions"
Tardy Recognition.
II was, however, on the representa-
tions of Perry Heath, at that time First
Assistant Postmaster General. that
Gilmer was finally reduced in salary and
transferred 10 the Office of the Auditor
for the State and Other departments.
1t was in 1899 that Gilmer began au-
diting postoffice accounts aggregating
$255. .996.O2. They had already been
passed upon as correct by Auditor Cas-
tie. of the Postoffice Department. Gil
mer soon discovered what he considered
gross Irregularities. Between sc, 900
and $4,000 was held up. A great COM
motion followed.
1t is now said the President Is TO
give Gilmer substantial though tardy
recognition.

Narrow ESCAPES.

Commissioner Shaw's two sons were
driving to Rus hsylvania, Sunday eve
ming to attend church, and as they
started down the hill, at the Miami,
the holdback broke, letting the bug
gy run on to the horse. The older
son leaned forward,to keep the bug
gy off the horse, when it let go with
both feet, and struck him in the
breast with its hooks, knocking him
out of the buggy.
The horse then ran down the hill,
and when near the bottom, the bug
gy was tipped over and tho younger
son thrown out He was stunned, and
rendered unconscious. His brother
found him unconscious on reaching
him, but managed to get him on the
horse, and held him there till they
got home; He was still helpless when
they reached there, but rallied after
a short time, and both young men got
off without serious injury. 1t certain
ly was a narrow as well as a FORUM
ate escape.

was able.
More than IS years had she lived

she been a member of the first Pres

Married in ls45, she was happy
wife for four short years. Then her
husband, Mr.. Samuel Mccormick
went to California and never return

it is supposed he was murdered. The
faithful wife, never forgetting him,
kept a light in the window, night
after night. during the long weary
years, hoping for his return to her.
She was waiting the call of the
Master. Over and over did she say,
81 love my Savior and He loves me, "
and those who were with her realized
she was ready and anxious to be with
her 'dear Lord
For a number of years her sister,
Miss Maggie Morrison, was her COM
panion in the home, but for more
than 80 years she walked alone. She
was the last of a family of twelve
children. "Aunt Matte" Kerr so we'll
remembered was the last to be called
before this sister. There is now an
unbroken family in the home beyond.
