MAY REMOVE FOR CAUSE.
President Makes Important Change in
Civil Service Rules.

WaShington.-An amendment to the
civil service rules, sweeping and COM
prehensive in it's character, has been
authorized by the President. Hereaf-
ter a Cabinet officer will have the
power TO remove summarily and with
out hearing any civil service employe
in his department who to the personal
knowledge OF the head of the depart
ment, has been guilty of misconduct
or who is inefficient in the perform
ance of his duties. BY the terms of the
amendment the Cabinet officer must
have personal knowledge of the mis-
conduct or inefficiency of the employe
whom he proposes to discharge. With
this personal knowledge the power of
the head of the department is absolute.
The amendment thus authorized is
one of the most important and far
reaching made to the civil service
rules in many years.
Heretofore, in every case of the re-
moval of a civil service employe,
charges had to be filed against the
person whom it was proposed to re-
move and the employe was given time
in which to meet the charges with
such defense as he might have to
make. Under the authorized amend
ment such proceeding will not be nee
essary A head of a department may
discharge an employe for misconduct
or inefficiency with the simple state
ment TO the civil service commission
that the misconduct or inefficiency is
a subject of his personal observation.
The discharged employe will have no
recourse.
The amendment was discussed by
the CABINET and approved unanimously.

BANKER SUICIDES
ENTERPRISE NATIONAL BANK OF
ALLEGHENY FAILS.
BIG LOANS TO POLITICIANS

w. n. Andrews of New Mexico One OF
the sorrowers.-Eight Hundred
Thousand Dollars of State Deposits
in the Bank.
Pittsburg, Pa.-After an investiga-
tion of the books of the Enterprise
National Bank of Allegheny, which
disclosed that the bank was insolvent,
I. Lee Clarke, cashier of the institu-
tion for years, went to his home in
Bellevue last midnight, spent a sleep
less, nervous night, and shot himself
through the head this morning. He
lived until 2:30 o'clock this afternoon
OF $SOO,000 of state deposits in the
bank 100000 had been loaned to poll
ticians.
An hour before the announcement of
his death was received at the bank, a
telegram came from the comptroller of
the currency closing the doors and ap-
pointing Bank Examiner John j. Gun
ningham receiver.
Following closely on the exciting
events in lower Allegheny came the
announcement from the president of
the bank, Fred Gwynner, Sr, that
Clarke had loaned thousands of dol
lars to Pennsylvania politicians; that
he himself had endorsed a note for
$4,000 yesterday for Clarke, conclud-
ing with the statement that if the
shortage was only 100000, he would
gladly pay it himself"
The bank has state deposits which
will amount to about 100000, of which
s49S,000 is in the checking or active
account, and the rest is in sinking
fund.
Mr.. Gwynner in his statement said:
Nearly 100000 of the SSO0,000 of
state deposits of our bank is out on
paper of state politicians. w. H.
Andrews has borrowed nearly $780,
600; Frank J. Torrance has borrowed
considerable. l do not know how
much. But the bank is solvent"
When pressed for specific instances
of loans made to Andrews and Tor
rance, Mr.. Gwynner modified his first
statement by saying that the books of
the bank do not show that they per-
sonally borrowed money from it, but
that the money was given to the Penn
sylvania Development Company.
Mr. Andrews cannot be located to-
night. He is reported to be in Phila-
delphia.
Francis ]. Torrance is ill and could
not be seen.

Philadelphians Aroused.

Philadelphia, Pa.-Following q sug-
gestion by George w Rogers, an evan
gelist who had addressed an overflow
political meeting in front of the Acad-
emy of Music, 1900 persons with
transparencies for Mayor Weaver,
marched to the homes of Israel w.
Durham and James p. McNichol, lead
ers of the Republican machine, and
expressed in language not choice their
contempt and hatred for the "grafter'
and the boss in politics.
At Durham's residence, Here lives
a man who ought to be in JAIL a city
party man shouted Here lives a man
who will stoop to anything to gain his
end. Here lives Durham in a mansion
built out of the peoples money. Down
with Izzy"
The throng then marched to the resi-
dence of Durham's contracting part
ner, Senator McNichol. Policemen
apprised of the crowds intention, had
filled the steps of the house Just l..
front of them a soap box was placed,
and Mr.. Rogers mounted it.
James McNichol," he cried in sol
emu voice, lin front of this magnif-
cent mansion which you have erected
with money fraudulently obtained
these thousands of enraged citizens
have gathered to denounce you for
plundering the people,"
Other speeches followed, and with
jeering the crowd, which now mum
bered 1000 persons, marched to the
Bellevue-Stratford and demanded that
Governor Folk make an address. 1t
was after midnight before it dispersed.

IN,,5: Gzes/ecGurry

A nervous, irritable mother, often on
the verge of Mysteries. is unfit to care
for children; it ruins child's DISPOSE
tion and reacts upon herself. The
trouble between children and their
mothers too often is due to the fact
that the mother has some female weak
ness, and she is entirely nnfiJ to bear
the strain upon her nerves that govern
ing children involves; it is impossible
for her to do anything calmly.
The ills of women act like firebrand
upon the nerves, consequently nine
tenths of the nervous prostration. ner
vous despondency. the blues" sleep
lessness. and nervous irritability of
women arise from some arrangement
OF the female organism.
Do you experience fits of depression
with restlessness, alternating with
extreme irritability? Are your spirits
easily affected, so that one minute you
laugh, and the next minute you feel
like crying?
Do you feel something like ball ris-
ing in your throat and threatening to
choke you; all the senses perverted,
morbidly sensitive to light and sound;
pain in the ovaries, and especially
between the shoulders; bearing down
pains; nervous dyspepsia. and almost
continually cross and snappy?
If SO, your nerves are in a shattered
condition, and you are threatened with
nervous prostration.
Proof is monumental that nothing in
the world is better for nervous prostra
tion than Lydia Il. Pinkham's Vege-
table Compound; thousands and thou
sands of women testify to this fact.

Dear Mrs. Pinkham:-

the medicine that holds the record for
the greatest number of actual cures of
female ills, and take no substitute.

They were sent here at the request of
former President Charles A. Dabney
and are the only ones OF about 150 now
in this country who were sent to south
ern institutions. He said he found that
the F1lipinos at the local institution
were not cordially received by the stu

ostraciZed. He regretted the condition,
especially because Tennessee was the

Austin, FEB. 24~--After the most
heated debate OF the session The house
Thursday, BY 81 TO As. declined &c.
force the committee on revenue and
taxation to repc-. Mr.. Cranke's bill tc
increase the advalorem tax rate. Du-
ing the debate there were some SHARP
things said In the way of criticisms
some OF waieh Mr.. Cobbs construed
TO be personal attacks upon him. He
resented them in a speech Of the
scathing sort, following which there
were disclaimers of any intent to re-
fleet, etc, until Mr.. Hill OF Denton
arose to suggest that the previous
question be ordered upon "the AL
phonse and CASTOR business" and Mr.
Blount of Anderson declared that the
proceedings reminded him Of two lit
tie boys who uniformly denied respon-
sibility for "devilment" They say
they did not mean il. and that they did
not say anything. Let's get TO work =
said he.
The debate occurred over resolu-
ton introduced by Messrs. Cobbs, Fitz-
hugh and Cranke several days ago to
require the committee on revenue and
taxation to report the bin and declar-
ing that It should be set as a special
order
Senate concluded bin prohibiting
owners or managers of billiard halls
and bowling alleys from permitting
minors TO enter such places and play
any game therein.
Mr.. Grinnan moved to reconsider the
vote by which the senate rejected Mr.
Terrelfs substitute providing that the
law shall not apply when the minor is
accompanied by parent or has writ
ten consent to enter such places. Lost
on a tie vote
Messrs Hicks and Harper offered an
amendment providing that the bill shall
not apply to billiard halls or bowling
alleys In social clubs. associations and
clubs Of like character. Adopted. and
bill was passed.
