NOT FAVORED BY PRESIDENT.

Wilson indicated today that he did
not favor exempting from civil SER
vice deputy collectors Of internal rev.
enue and deputy United States mar
shals provided In the urgent def
cheney bill as passed by the Senate.
He told callers Il was originally in
tended that only special agents should
be exempted because OF their neces-
sarfiy~ confidential relations with col
Electors.
The civil service commissioners
protested to President Wilson. char
actcrizing the exemption as detrimen-
tai to the civil service. Objections
have also been raised by many or
ganlzations Commissioners Nell
benny and Galloway conferred with
the President and an effort to amend
the provision in the house was sug-
gested.
Administration leaders in the house
anxious over the urgent deficiency
bill. which will come over from the
Senate tomorrow. are sending out ap-
peals to absent members to return

"a amended can be sent to confer

proved.
The amendment in the Senate abol-

considerable discussion and Republi-

The fact that there is not a quorum

ing the Democratic leaders consider
able concern. for without one, op-
ponents OF the measure might tie Il
up and greatly embarrass govern

make something out of it.
1t is understood that if man is on his
way to Europe and the steamer is to sail at
ten o'clock, and letter is dictated at nine
fifty, he may have to make mad rush for
the boat and leave the letter to be signed and
read by some one else. Explanation, in this
case, is eminently right and proper But
when one buys rubber stamp and uses it as

Dictated But NotRead" a a1Ss,

-
MY opinion is that the phrase, Die
vE tated but not read, was devised in
the counting-room of Perlmutter and
Potash. 1t looks clever, and is very, very
smart.
If Lapidowitz, the Schnorrer, was in
charge of your correspondence, he would
stamp this on every letter before he started
for the ball-game.
1t is an acknowledgment of sloth; and an
apology without an accusation is proof of
guilt.
1t transfers blame from yourself to the
stenographer and, therefore, is an easy side
step in case of dispute. And just here seems
a good place to quote Saint Francis, who
said, A gentleman is one who excuses every
one but himself" My heart is with the
man who, on receiving such letter, scrawls
across the corner of it, Opened but not
read" and returns it.

turers will show you elaborate pains taken
to test properly everything in every part

Business now is done right out in the white

worse than that ancient epistolary wheeze,

The man who writes, Thanking you in

individual who wants something for nothing.
Imagine a fond lover, of the Nineteen

came out. A few days later he ran

'Wen, Mister Sullivan" said Mike,
pat didn't run near as well as /
thought he would, and, to tell you the

head made improper proposals to her

WALKER LOSES PLYcKY BATTLE
WITH MERCURY POISONING
Another Man Swallows Three Tab
Iets-HelI Die, Too.

Macon, Ca, May 22.-The plucky
battle against death which has gained
worldwide admiration for B. Sanders
Walker, the young banker who swal-
lowed bichloride of mercury last
Thursday, believing it to aspirin,
ended last night shortly after mid
night with death the victor.
The mistake was not noted until he
developed familiar symptoms of mer-
curiaI poisoning, and then it was too
late for the physicians to stop the
drug from paralyzing his kidneys and
destroying his tissues.
For two days, by sheer will power,
he wound up his business affairs,
said goodbye to his friends, and then
took to his bed, declaring all the
while his determination to live. But
the anguish of stoppage of his diges-
tive organs and the constant suffer-
ing he had to undergo as the ply
sicians tried to sweat the poison out
of him, made him glad when he knew
the end was near.

REAL GLOBE-TROTTER A
VISITOR HERE YESTERDAY
Is on Jaunt Around the World On a
Secret Wager.

Andrew Haight, the surname pro-
nounced like the word hate, though
the bearer of it is a mild-mannerel
person, blew into Americas yesterday
on his way to Atlanta from Jackson
vile on his globe trotting trip that is
to occupy ten years.
Haight left his home at 357 Bridge
street, Brooklyn, N. Y, on the fifth day
of last August, his object being to visit
the capital of every state in the union
and to pay his respects to all civilized
countries within period of ten years
under a secret wager. When asked
about the wager, Haight said that he
would rather not tell what it is, as It
concerned no one but himself.
Letters from Mayor Gaynor, Presi
dent Woodrow Wilson, then governor
OF New Jersey, as well as documents
bearing the signatures of all the gov,
.ernors of the states along the Atlantic
seaboard which he has visited are dis
played by Haight, showing that his
claims are genuine. He left New Yorh
City with one ounce of gold wire and
two or three small tools used in the
manufacture of pins from this wire,
the wager STIMULATING that he was not
to have any other articles about him ~
value, dollar watch having been sub,
stituted for a gold one, and to make
his way solely from the money made
from manufacturing these simple arti-
