Bartender Kills Himself.

Perry, Dec. 2,-Thursday morning
at 1880 o'clock. Thomas Masek. a
Bohemian bartender at the Stock EX-
change saloon. committed suicide by
placing a revolver in his mouth, pull
ing the trigger and blowing the top
of his head off. No especial reason
is assigned for his having committed
the rash act He was twenty-five
years of age. His father. Joe Masek,
lives six miles east of this city.
1t is said that young Masek slept
in the rear of the saloon at night
When the proprietor left at closing
time Wednesday night he placed $26
in the cash drawer, with a slip of
paper on which was enumerated the
cash on hand. An examination of the
cash drawer the next morning dis
closed the fact that about half of the
money was gone. Young Masek's sui
eide Is not. however, connected with
the disappearance of the money, rs
he has always borne a reputation for
sterling honesty. II is supposed that
he was despondent and took the sui
eide method of ending his existence.

ROOT TO LOP OFF pEADS
BRIGHT YOUNG MEN DESIRED
FOR OUR FOREIGN SERVICE.
lncompetents Are Doomed-At Least
One Hundred Present lncumbents
Declared Unfit to Represent
Their Country Abroad.

A dispatch to the Chicago Tribune
from Washington says: Secretary
Roots knife is busily engaged in lop-
ping the heads of diplomatic officers
and consuls who are not efficient. IL
is estimated that at least 100 persons
who for various reasons are unfit to
represent the United States abroad,
will be invited to tender their resig-
nations. Bright American young men
will be named in their stead.
The foreign affairs of the govern
ment have attained such a tremendous
Importance and proportion that a
small army is required to give them
attention The diplomatic service is
growing larger every year. The constr
lar service is in need of reorganization
and in some cases Of expansion as n
result Of the enormous extent of
American commerce and the need of
furnishing our exporters with infor-
nation as to markets abroad and
methods OF business Of European and
Asiatic competitors. There Is no leg
islation by which q business may be
eradicated. but the president and the
secretary of safe. by the character
of the appointments which they may
make, are in a position to bring the
service to a hign state of efficiency.
This is the reason why great care Is
being exercised by the secretary in
filling vacancies abroad which now eX-
list or will exist by the time his knife
ceases swinging
influence is powerful, but it is no
longer potent A senator will ask the
president for a place for a constitu-
ent. The request is listened to with
attention and then the president tells
him the matter is i'm the hands Of the
secretary of state. The secretary, not
content with political Endorsements,
asks, What are his qualification.
and If the man comes to the stand
ard of efficiency fixed by the secreta.
ry the application Is considered.
