A MemOrial to Army Surgeons.

The suggestion made by DR., S. Weir
Mitchell, of Philadelphia, to the annual
convention of the American Medical
Association that memorial be erected
to the surgeons of both the Confed-
crate and Union armies who lost their
lives during the civil war will strike
a responsive chord Surgery, like any
other science, recognizes neither North
nor South, creed, ancestry, or politics.
To the surgeon. one man is like an
other. be he high or low born. That
such a testimonial has not been erected
before this to civil war surgeons speaks
well for the modesty Of the profession.
Vet the army surgeon performed his
duty Just as valorously and with as
much heroism as the man IN the fight
ing line.
Now that a man of Dr.. Mischell's
eminence has brought the maKer so
prominently before the public, there viii

a memorial ought to assume. A hospital

SILVER SHIP is ADDED
TO PEARY COLLECTION
Explorer Deposits Model of Early Sailing Vessel Pre-
sented by Royal Scottish Geographical Society

Admiral Peary has recently deposited
in the United States National Museum
four pieces OF silver, a notable addition
to the Peary collection, which has for
some months past been on exhibition in
the museum. The new pieces consist Of
replica Of the type of ship used by
Hudson, Davis, and Baffin in their ex-
ploration of the Northwest Passage, and
three loving cups presented to Admiral
Peary in recognition of his discovery Of
the north pole.
Two Of the cups were presented by citi-
zens of Bangor, Portland, and South
Portland, Me-, and one by members of
the Delta Kappa Epsilon Association OF
New York City, of which the explorer is
a member.
The ship is an exact model in silver of
the type Of sailing vessel used by the
pioneer arctic navigators of the sixteenth
and seventeenth centuries, and was pre-
sented by the Royal Scottish Geographical
Society. On one of the sails is the follow
ing inscription in Latin:

Mr.. Taft and the Merit System.

In directing the resignation of the
collector of internal revenue at New
Orleans, Mr.. Seyburn, the President
once more has given proof, if any were
needed, of his purpose of maintaining
the integrity of the merit system in the
public service. The charge against Sey-
burn was that he manipulated the
eligible lists for the civil service and
secured campaign subscriptions from
Federal employees under the guise of
voluntary contributions. The soliciting
of political funds by one public employe
from another is prohibited by law, and
no one is permitted to seek campaign
funds in any government building.
Some 10000 out of 10000 Federal
positions are filled under the national
civil service act. The appointing officer
is required to make his selections from
three names certified to him by the
Civil Service Commission The civil
service law means nothing at all if this
rule is not rigidly adhered to. Mr..
Taft has demonstrated that he will up
hold any official who administers his
Office as public trust, and not for
the purpose of creating a political ma
chine by, the dispensation of patronage
He also showed that the Federal official
who juggles with the law will not be
given consideration.

Nations Hoarding Gold.

" According to figures given as official
by the Echo des Moines, this country is
the largest holder of dormant gold in
the world. Russia is poor second, and
France is third. The figures as given
are: United States, $I,3I6,25o,ooo; Rus
sia, $65z, 10000, and France, $645ooo-
900. This represents 90 per cent of the
reserve gold in the world.
In 1890 this nation had but ssh, :
600 Of boarded gold, so it has more than
doubled its holdings in twenty years.
France has doubled its supply and Rus
sia has done about as well. This places
the United States far ahead of any other
nation as hoarder and accumulation of
the precious metal.
This leads to speculation as to the
ultimate value of gold. If the produc-
ton continues as in the past twenty
years. and if the fine arts do not greatly
increase their demand, it will become a
problem as to how long gold will retain
its value Its purchasing power is sure
to decrease with the increasing supply.
Necessities are the basis of value, and
so long as gold is scarce it is a con-
venient measure. But unless the wheat
fields of Canada and South Africa in
crease their acreage and the yield per
acre the time may come when a bushel
of wheat will be the unit Of value.

CURIOUS BITS OF HISTORY
A STRANGE WILL.
BY A. w. MACY.

Peter Thelussen. London
merchant. died in 1897, leaving
a fortune of $1,000 BY his
will 100000 went to his wife
and children. The rest of his
fortune was committed to trus-
tees, with the stipulation that
it should be allowed to accumu-
late during the lives of the sons
and grandsons. When they were
all dead. the fortune was to go
to the oldest living great
grandson; or if there should be
no great-grandson, it should go
to the government and be ap-
piled on the national debt. The
will was contested, but the heirs
were unable to break 1t. The
last grandson died in 1859. and
the fortune was delivered to
Charles Thelussen, the oldest
living great-grandson. At the
time the will was made experts
figured out that the fortune
would amount to something like
f1,90O.000 by the time 1t should
be turned over to the great
grandson, but the expenses OF
litigation and administration had
been so great that he received
only about the amount OF the
original fortune, 100000.
