The Discharged Clerk.

The decision Of the District Court
of Appeals UNFOLDING the lower court
IN refusing to compel the Secretary OF
War to reinstate Miss Rebecca J.
Taylor. the clerk who was discharged
after writing a newspaper article re-
fleeing on the President, adirms that
the Government as an employer has
the same rights as a private indi-
vidual who is an employer.
The instant the President of the
United States takes Office. he becomes
the official head of the whole Gov
eminent, and consequently no longer
the representative of any political
party That, at least. is the theory
and with the growth Of civil service
it is becoming very largely the prac-
tice. As the head of the Government
he should have the loyal support OF
the employees of the Government
while they are employees.
If clerk in a dry goods store pub
lished an attack on the senior partner
of the firm, there would be no CUES
tioning the right OF the firm TO dis
charge that clerk. The court by its
decision holds that the Government
in a similar case has precisely the
same privilege.
But even if the legality OF the dis
charge were not maintained, the bad
taste Of the action would not be con
doned. If outraged justice demands
that an employe expose his employer
the least that the employe can do i.
to stop taking the money Of the MAI
whom he intends to expose before hC
begins his expose.

Musical Mosquito Traps.

Mrs. Amelia HOlbrook, lecturing
before the Professional Women's
Club of New York, advanced some
ideas which cause one TO suspect that
she has escaped from some university
r. the Flying Island of Laputa. One
of them was that music might be
used for the determination of mice
end mosquitoes.
A musical mouse trap, she said.
would attract the mice more quickly
than cheese, and by experiment one
might discover the tune likely to suit
their tastes. That may be true. but
# II came to a choice between hear
ing a music-box play 'Bedelia." or
some kindred tune. all night. and
hearing the mice nibble at the vain
scot, most of us would prefer the
mice
The lecturer also asserted that no
woman should allow her baby to
scream off the key. The mother
should be provided with a tuning
lOrk and get the child into tune with
the universe at the beginning of the
concert. If this statement had been
illustrated with a practical example
70 would have been a more remark
able show than anything in the cir
Gus. but the method of tuning the in
FAINT was not explained.
Music would also. It was stated. at
tract mosquitoes, and the proper
mosquito trap would have some sort
OF musical contrivance inside a
screen. against which the insects
would crowd when the music began.
This is reminiscent Of the Peterdn
method of discriminating insects on a
hot June evening. It was TO light all

WoTthilU Self Made

Should an attempt be made to Sc
lect from the host of men who have
grown rich within the past few years
a fair example for the emulation of
the youth of today who would win
out, no higher type could be chosen
than Levi Zeigler Letter, who passed
away at Bar Harbor yesterday morn
ing.
When he started in business his
only tools for carving out his for
tune were honesty, unceasing indus
try, and a desire to perform the
/ tasks for which he was paid better
than anyone else could perform
them. Whatever duty he undertook,
he performed with unceasing energy
and all of his intellectual force.
While Mr.. Letter never sought in
any manner to conceal his self-mak-
ing. nor scorned the tools with which
he hewed his way, he was never
boastful nor loud-mouthed in his own
praise, but with perfect candor related
often to striving young men his own
experiences in the beginning Of his
career.
Men have made greater fortunes
than that of Mr. Letter in a less time.
but almost always with cunning and
capital; or, if their fortunes were cut
through the ainty distractions
thrown by destiny about the early
life of L. z. Letter, like that environ
ment they grew harder and stingier
as they grew older and richer, until
their lives are narrowed 10 a point
which excludes love and human in
terest. His every day life was as
simple as that of a country curate.
while his tastes were almost extrav-
asantly plain. He loved a fine home.
because it pleased his family, because
he was proud TO provide il. and be-
I cause his taste for the beautiful had
been cultivated to a rare degree. but
he never craved luxury nor never
worked 70 win it.
Though never fond of society. Mr..
Letter was the finest type Of a hospi-
table American gentleman. Unlike
most men who shrink from great
social form. Mr.. Letter did not at all
object 70 it in others, nor in his fam
/ lily, though speaking often of society
as too frequent cause for the destruc-
ton of domestic peace and happiness.
For his own family he set no limits
I upon their social pace. but insisted
that nothing should interrupt the
: serenity Of their home life. As a re-
suit he raised q particularly cIannish
and united family.
Mr.. Letter gave few amounts large
/ enough 20 advertise him as a lavish
! philanthropist. but his purse was ever
open TO the distressed. and from re.
( mote corners Of the world and i'm OBJ
! scure places there will thousands stor
to drop a tear in remembrance Of hin
or pause TO reflect on some little act
/ of tenderness.
