a law partnership for the handling OF
the cases of these concerns before the

port with Tyner's connivance, declar-
ing that while the business was lille

was right; that Tyner and Barrett
procured the signature of the post

Barrett stating that a reasonable time
would be given for making over this
business, during which time their use
of the mails would not be interrupted.

printed at government expense and
sent to every known company, with
a circular letter to each stating that
the business of that company was lille

CelIuIoid a Menace.

The unrestricted sale of articles
made of celluloid, which is practically
guncotton, for any purpose whereby
such article is liable to come into
contact with fire, should on no ac-
count be allowed, says the Lancet We
believe there are other dangerous sub
stances related to guncotton which go
under other names and which are also
used for similar purposes and should
be likewise banned 1t may be that
the infiammability of celluloid is some
times somewhat counteracted by ad-
mixture with substances with an op-
posite tendency, but the difficulty is
to distinguish the combustible from
the incombustible. At all events some
warning should be inscribed on the
articles made Herewith, and they
should be marked highly inf1am-
mable," or with some other equally
premonitory and protecting device. A.

DEATH CLAIMS }. N. TYNER.

Former Postmaster-General, Under
Cloud, Expires at Washington
Former Postmaster General James
N Tyner died at Washington Dec. 5,
aged 7a years. He was born in Brook
vile, Ind, JAM IL, 1926. Mr.. Tyner
had never recovered his health since
he was stricken with paralysis in July.
1902. Besides being postmaster gem
eral, Mr.. Tyner has held many Offices
of public trust.
The stroke of paralysis which shat
tered Mr.. Tyner's health occurred in
July, 1902, while he was assistant at
torney general, and he never discharg-
ed the duties of his Office after it.
Mr.. Tyner has been identified with
the postal service most of the time
since March, 1861, when he was ap-
pointed a special agent in the depart
ment. The sensational climax to his
official career occurred in April, 1903,
when he was removed by Postmaster
General Payne following the taking by
Mrs. Tyner and Mrs. Barrett of papers
from the safe in the Office of the as
sistant attorney general, of which Mr..
Tyner was then the head. Mr.. Tyner
was i'll at home and the office was
under investigation by postoffice in
spectors.
The postofice department gave out
a statement at the time Tyner and
Barrett were indicted, which set forth
that there were three indictments
charging Tyner and Barrett with con-
spiracy and two additional indictments
charging Barrett with agreeing, while
in Office, to receive fees for services
rendered or to be rendered in cases
before him as an officer. 1t was charg-
ed that Tyner and Barrett investigat-
ed the business of bond investment
companies and learned that they were
all carrying on a business that involv.
ed fraud or lottery, or both, but that
instead of recommending to the post
master general the issue of an order
that would prevent the delivery OF
mail or the payment of money orders
to those concerns, and would thus
break up their business, they conspir
ed to give them unobstructed use OF

Value of New Ideas.

The recognition of the value of a
new idea, in regard to a business
point, is leading employers to encour-
age criticisms and suggestions from
employees in respect to the details of
the business, thus utilizing their micro
scopic view rather than depending
solely on the bird's-eye view which is
taken by the manager, says Success.
A friendly feeling results from this
attitude, and the employee takes a
deeper interest in his work, develop
ing his own capacity and helping the
business. To see his idea carried out
by his superiors puts new life into him
and adds new enthusiasm to his eff
forts. He will work harder to develop
another point, and so win this appro-
baton, than he would for any other
compensation.
