Harry A. Barrows, Census Disburs
ing Clerk, Short.
Harry A. Barrows, years ago a resi
dent of Cameron, where his father, the
late Henry Barrows, was engaged in
business, has "gone wrong." A dis
patch from Washington, says:
"Playing the races with government
money has caused a shortage of §7500 in
the accounts of 11. A.'Barrows, disburs
ing clerk of the Census Office. Barrows
has been suspended pending an inves
tigation, and Appointment Clerk Lang
ley is acting disbursing officer.
Barrows confessed the shortage, and
had it not been for this it is likely that
it would not have been discovered for
several months. He saw Director
Merriam, and told him that his ac
counts were short $7500, and that it had
been caused by temporarily borrowing
the government's funds to play the
races. He lost small sums at first, and
as they increased so did Barrows' bets,
and as a result lie confessed rather
than continue hiding his defalcation.
The government will lose nothing, as
the American Surety Company is on
Barrows' bond for §50,000. He received
a salary of §3OOO a year, and has a wife
and six children.
That money can bo lost quickly on
the race tracks is again shown by Bar
rows'defalcation. Six weeks ago the
Bennings season opened, and a few
days before two Treasury accountants
audited Barrows' accounts. They were
found correct. Barrows began playing
the races. He had many friends, and
from them received the usual "good
things," which did not go through.
Ho lost steadily, and as his shortage
became greater began taking larger
sums and plunging, in the hope that
fortune would smile upon him, and
allow him to make good his shortage.
Only a few of his friends knew that lie
was playing the races.
Mr. Barrows has turned over to the
surety company a life insurance policy
and what little property he has remain
ing, but this will not be sufficient to
make up the shortage. He is under
the surveillance of detectives employed
by the surety company."
After the death of Mr. Barrows, Sr.,
the family removed to Washington,
where they have resided ever since.
Young Barrows secured a position
with government and steadily ad
vanced, until he occupied a first-class
and responsible post. His down-fall is
to be regretted.
Letter to L. Lockwood.
Emporium, Pa.
Dear Sir: There are two sorts of
farmers, one wants his house and farm
buildings to say "I'm comfortable and
owe nobody, thank you;" the other
don't care. The paint for the thrifty
one is Devoe lead and zinc.
Mr. Thriftless, no matter, one paint
is as good as another for him. Any
white-wash stuff will do. His clap
boards are loose and windows out.
A man can't look thrifty, unless he is
thrifty. Takes more than paint to save
his property. Look at his horses—
can't paint them !
Yours truly,
