and when she went in to awake
Mr.. Scott found him dead. Life
had only been extinct for very
few minutes when she entered
the room. Mr.. Scott went to
bed at night feeling very well
although he had been il feeble

has lost one of her most valuable
citizens, one who has been iden-
titled with her progress from its
beginning. A good man is gone,
peace to his ashes.

SAY HAT STRIKE rs ENDING.
Stand Taken by DAnbury Employers May
Mean Success for Open shop.
AT VERY LOW PRICES

The officers Of the Associated Hat
Manufacturers regarded yesterday the
action Of the twelve associated manu-.
factirers in Danblry. Conn. on Saturday
in deciding to reopen their factories to-
morrow on the open shop plan as an in
dication OF the speedy end of the long
strike of the hatters.
Danh,iry has been the great stronghold
OF the strikers and the union there waf
a BILE to bring pressure on the storekeepers
and others to cooperate te with the strikers
in eyery way possible. From time ia
time clergymen and others in Danbury
have been trying to bring about a settle
mont without success. and this declara
ton OF war by the Danbury nanufac.
t,,rers means that all negotiations are
nni. President Mundheim Of the Associ-
sted Hat Manufacturers made the follow
ing statement Yesterday:
aThe Danbury manufacturers are pre-
"a ring q staterpsnt Of what they Jpropoee
10 do on Tuesday. which will be sub
mitted to the strikers tomorrow. This
is ha ,ed of course ON the open shop plan
in case their old employees accept the
nropoeitions the strikers will have the
Chance TO return, and il they refuse the
fe ctories will be reopened with any who
come, whether eTlheptehkeIs OF new
men, 1t looks to ne, from the position
taken ty the Danbury manufacturers,
that they feel able TO break the strike
and I believe that they should have taken
this action sooner. If they succeed in
breaking the strike, as I believe they will,
the entire strike will be over in less than
two weeks. II is a surprising thing that
It lasted 90 long, as we know that the
nontribu ons they received from the
unions generally. when their own funds
were exhausted. were very insignificant
when the large number OF strikers 70 ne
"a red for was taken into consideration"
The officers Of the local union Of hat
ters ia Danbury have called a mass meet
inc OF the strikers in Danbury for this
afternoon, but the object OF the meeting
could not be learned. 1t 10 thought thai ;,I
make a plea to the strkers TO resist the
temptation of being offered reemploy-
ment on the open shop plan.

ONE WAY TO PASS EXAMS.
Don't Take 'Em-Jerseyman Who Didn't
Got OF In Ciyil Service Test.


Morris O'Donnel, OF 40 Grove street,
Jersey City. was surprised recently to
learn that his name appeared at the head
of a list OF successful candidates in an
examination before the State Civil Ser
vice C commission for appointment as
attendant at the new free public bath
in the Second ward. He was credited
with an average OF 90 per cent. which he
considered mighty good rating in view
of the fact that he did not take the ex-
animation.
ODonnell is a follower Of City Hall
Custodia Frank Hague. who is kept
busy opposing tho Democratic leadership
Of John j. Sheehy in the Second ward.
He has confessed that Hague suggested
to him to take the examination. but he
demurred. fearing the outcome, and did
not file an application.
O'Donnen cannot account Tor his sue
cess as shown by the official record. ex-
cept on the theory that somebody volun-
teered or was directed to impersonate
him in the examination, Several men ON
the eligible list furnished by the Civil
Service Commission to the Jersey City
Board OF Finance will probably apply
through counsel to the courts to-day to
have the results OF the examination set
aside. An investi CATION will be made
| for the purpose Of finding out who were
responsible for the deception practised
on Civil Service Commissioners Colby and
Milliken.
| Chief Examiner Gardner Colby OF the
commission said recently that one OF the
candidates at the bathhouse attendants
examination offered him $500 without
entering into a detailed explanation OF
the purpose Of the bribe, The man
walked out without trying the ekamiua
| t,on. His name was not made public.

They MUST EARN
Their SALARIES
Employees of the Department of Com
merce and Labor Will Be Required
to Deliver the Goods or Quit.

WASHINGTON, August 1.-THE
wave of efficiency tests which started
under Secretary Nagel in the depart
ment of commerce and labor has
struck the treasury department where
it is even to be more sweeping.
Before leaving the city today for his
summer home in Dublin, N. H., Secre-
tary MasVeagh appointed the three
assistant secretaries as a committee to
work out reforms. Cards have been
sent to every employee and every chief
of division. Each chief will make a
report concerning his employees. Each
employe will make a report concerning
himself or herself. The cards cover
la host of subjects. including the guam
tity and quality Of work performed by
each employe and the character of
appointment under which one labors.
It is not anticipated that there will
be great saving Immediately in dol
lars and cents, but it is beliexed it viii
result in the introduction of labor saw
ing economics and that some practical
theory of promotions may be worked
out
Many appointees of the treasury de-
partment obtained their places through
political influence and in behalf Of
such appointees promotions have been
urged greatly to the annoyar ce of the
officials. When an instance of the |
kind comes to the notice of the secre-
tary now the chief of the employees
will receive a letter as follows:
please say to John Doe that I am
sure he is not responsible for the large |
of persons visiting the depart !
ment in the interest of his promotion /
because he is doubtless familiar with
the executive order on that subject"
The order in question was issued by |
former President Roosevelt and pro
hibits employees of the departments
from using inside" influence to gain
promotion.
