MINISTER HONORS
HARPER'S MEMORY
Rev. A. H. Thompson Eulo-
gizes Late Court Clerk.
OFFICIALS AT THE SERVICES
Pastor of Waugh M. e. Church
Pays Fitting Tribute to Omcial
Work of Juvenile Cour, Since It's
Foundation-Easer to Help All.

Joseph Harper, clerk of the Juvenile
Court, who died last Tuesday, was eulo'
gized in a memorial sermon delivered BY
Rev. A. H. Thompson, pastor Of Waugh
M E. Church, Third and A streets north
east yesterday morning. Mr.. Harper
was one of the prominent members OF
Waugh church, and was known and loved
by all OF the congregation Mr.. Thomp-
son said. He also referred to him as "a
noble man, one who lived noble life
one who honored the God who made him
and made faith in human goodness
easier"
The service was attended by many
prominent members! OF the Washington
Bar Association, officials Of the Police
and Juvenile courts. and friends and as
sociates Of Mr.. Harper from all parts OF
Washington. Rev. Mr.. Thompson de-
livered the sermon in connection with
the Sunday morning service.
In part, Mr.. Thompson said: "God
must be interpreted through the human
No man may hope to do this perfectly
but each may share in presenting a frag.
ment that together may produce the
whole. Mr.. Harper illustrated conspicu.
ously the divine benevolence which char
acterized him.
Eager to Help All.
TT was this that marked Mr.. Harper
Distress always appealed to him. Not
only did he go out of his way to re-
lieve the distressed and worthy brother
but he was equally eager to help all who
needed him. Indeed, It was his nature
to do It. He could not resist, because
he had no disposition to do so.
His services were disinterested; his
was truly a heart at leisure from itself
So modest and retiring was he, so dis
interestedly unselfish, that never from
his own lips could his good deeds be
learned. But from every side tributes
are coming which give reason to believe
that when the secrets Of all hearts are
known, literally thousands will rise ur
and call him blessed.
He was a noble man. and lived a
noble life, one that honored the God that
made him, and makes faith in human
goodness easier. Such men are raised
up to save us from despair. We cannot
forget him. We should not let his
memory die. By emulating his example
We may rear to him a monument which
floods cannot destroy or time decay"
The successor to Mr.. Harper will not
be appointed until Judge William H. De
Lacy returns on September 5.
Charles A. Beirne, the deputy clerk, has
been acting during the illness and death of
Mr.. Harper, and he Is receiving strong
support for the vacancy. Mr.. Beirne
has been connected with the court for
about two years, during which time he
has made a splendid record. The clerk
ship pays a salary of 5000 a year.

GIVES UP PULPIT
HERE IN JUSTICE
To HIS CHILDREN
Rev. Patrick Murphy Going
to Sheffield, England.
CHUCHR LACKS SCHOOLS

Because there are no schools in the
United States conducted by the Episco-
pal Church, where children of clergy
men can be cared for in case of neces-
sity, is the reason assigned by Rev. Pat
rick Murphy, rector of the Chapel of
the Epiphany, for resigning his position.
Mr. Murphy received some months ago
an opportunity to become rector of a
church in Sheffield, England, and about
two months ago sent his resignation to
Rev. Dr. McKim
SURPRISE TO CONGREGATION.
The determination OF Rev. Mr.. Murphy
to make a change came as a surprise
to his congregation. DR.. McKim has
not formally accepted the resignation.
Rev. Mr.. Murphy said yesterday that
he expects to leave this country the
first week in October.
Until yesterday Rev. Mr.. Murphy had
given no definite reason for leaving the
religious field in Washington TO go to
England. Rev. Mr.. Murphy. who is a
widower, has three little children, and
it is for their welfare that ne accepted
the call to Sheffield.
1t is deplorable that the church has
no schools in this country for the chill
dren of clergymen,' he said. because
we find it difficult to properly educate
the little ones on the meager allow
ances. In England the church has such
schools, and it is because Of this fact
that 1 decided to make the change.
Should anything happen to me 1 would
feel sure they would be we'll cared for
in ..Eot Eofland; only is there ! lack of educa-
tional institutions for children of clergy
men, but also for the middle classes.
The latter condition is even more serious
here. Eventually there may be such
schools conducted by the church in this
country, but at present there are few
and these are overcrowded and INSULT
Cient The successful church in any
country is the one which looks to the
masses.
1T is unfortunate that we have no
such schools and 1 advocate them as
the best means of bringing about better
conditions Such institutions give moral
as we'll as intellectual instruction. The
middle classes are the ones which need
attending to in this country.
Cheaper in England.
Rev. Mr.. Murphy said such schools
were established by the church in Eng
land, and that they have proved most
successful. He said that where it costs
from $500 to 200 in this country for the
tuition for a child. in England 1t is only
$225 at the best schools.
Il am making the change in justice to
my children he said. and also because
I believe that 1 have a bright future in
England. The church in England is diff
ferent than in this country. and 1 believe
that 1 will be better satisfied there. I
regret leaving the church in this city
where I have been engaged. 1t is doing
wonderful work and there is great op-
portunity for a clergyman. I trust that
the conditions in this country will grad
ually improve"

WILSON HOLDS LID
DOWN IN CAPITAL
Official Is Representative of
Uncle Sam Now.

With the President and every member
of the Cabinet out of the city, Hunting
ton Wilson, First Assistant Secretary of
State. is sitting on the official lid in
Washington. The fact that Congress
remained in session until late in August
kept the high officials in Washington
much longer than usual, but no sooner
had adjournment been taken than the
President and members of the Cabinet
started for their summer vacations.
incidentally, only few of the as
sistants to the Cabinet officers remained
in town. Mr.. Wilson is the ranking
Assistant Secretary, and. therefore, he
is the acting head of the government in
Washington.
President Taft is at Beverly, Mass
Secretary of State Knox is at Valley
Forge, Pa; Attorney General Wicker,
sham is on Long Island: Secretary
Nagel is in Massachusetts: Secretary
Fisher is in Alaska; Secretary Meyer is

SAY SMALL PAY
HURTS SCHOOLS
Educators See Detriment to
System in Salaries
TEACHERS FORCED ELSEWHERE
Penuriousness of Congress Is Held
by School Heads to Be Respon-
Here-Perfectfon of the System
Is Threatened, They Say.

Because Congress steadfastly refuses
to appropriate funds for adequate SAL
aries for teachers, the perfection of
Washington's school system is threat
ened. say leading educators Of the city.
In the past few years there have been
frequent designations among Washington
instructors, who have accepted positions
elsewhere at salaries that were much
more attractive than those offered here,
In the opinion Of School Supt. David
son; Assistant Supt. Bruce; A. T. Stuart.
former head Of the schools here, and
Harry o. Hine. secretary Of the board OF
education, the penuriousness OF Congress
In appropriating funds for salaries Is q
real detriment to Washington's school
system. Frequent changes in the school
do not work for the efficiency Of the sys-
tenn, and such changes are bound to
come. they say. If conditions here are
not made more attractive financially.
Congress Sets Limit.
Congress has fixed the limit Of compen-
sation at $500 for principals of WASH
ington schools. The starting in salary
is $1,000. and IT is out OF all proportion to
the salaries paid IN other cities Of an
equal and smaller size than Washington,
1t is asserted
Our best teachers are offered attrac-
tive salaries in other cities daily" Mr..
Hines said yesterday. Just as soon as
elsewhere make them offers which are
not to be turned down. and we lose
thereby. Other cities rate their salary
list according to ability, and a good man
or woman can draw as high as $4,000
a year as principals or directors Con-
gress fixed. for all time apparently. a
salary limit OF $500 for these positions,
and public agitation seems to do no
good in forcing a higher compensation" "
Roscoe Conklin Bruce agrees with
Capt Oyster and supt. Davidson in the
matter OF higher salaries.
Teachers Are Underpafd.
Our principals of the elementary,
grammer. and high schools are woefully
underpaid." said Mr.. Bruce last night,
''as compared with other cities like
Boston, Cleveland, Detroit, Cincinnati,
and Pittsburg
There is no doubt that increases in
salaries would keep In Washington
principals and teachers who have been
offered in some cases twice as much
compensation in other fields. It seems
that as soon as a Washington educator
is established here and his ability
recognized. he receives a call to leave.
In many instances" Mr.. Bruce con-
tinued. principals and teachers have re-
ceived flattering offers, and have con-
sented to remain heb only after much
persuasion. It is an alarming state OF
affairs. and should receive consideration
by Congress at an early date"
