MORE CIVIL SERVICE REFORM.
 Two moro distinguished statesmen have this week announced their views concerning Civil Service Reform. One of them is Mir. Blaine, who, at mass meeting held at Win terport, Maine, took occasion to say that he should be glad to see every federal officer, however honorable his position, appointed for specific period, during which he could not be removed except for cause, which causs should be specified, proved and made 8 mat ter Of record He should be glad to see the tenure of all subordinate officers made longer at least than Presidential term, SO that the incoming of new administration would not be crippled or injured. Seven years would Dc good length for term and would effect the desired end. He did not believe that 8 life tenure would be wise, even if practicable and was sure it was not practicable, because it means pensions in the end, and might ere ate a privileged class" nor was he sure that ife-tenurs insures the best, most faithful and most honorable service, but believed 8 man would be a better officer if his conmis sion should expire at stated periods, and his reappointment depend upon his efficiency. AS "OuAN PAOfO 6 4aE 0ASl0E L2SK 70 GduCat6 public opinion to the renewal of appoint ments To efficient and valuable officers, with sufficient salary to enable them to lay by something for rainy day, than it would be to get popular consent to life-tenures with pensions to large civil list, constantly grow. ing in number and constantly provoking op- position in the popular mind. This system
 belongs to royalty, and he did not believe that it could be domesticated in this Repub- lie, nor that those who agitatsd it could ever reach practical result.
 Senator Hoar does not think any national ofhcer-holder need have the least fear of any unpleasant consequences to himself if he sees fit, in the free exercise of his own judgment, to refuse favorable answer to the circular issued in the name of tho Congressional committee. "Unfortunats, he continues, ''as was the first circular, this second one is doubly so. What right has anybody who has once asked freeman or @ gentleman to contribute to public object to inform him that he is 'surprised by his refusal? The relation which practically exists, and which. even after the passage of the much desired bill to regulate appointments, will to some extent exist, between Senators and Repre- sentatives and executive officers, makes it, it seems to me, exceedingly indslioate and i'm proper that the former should be soliciting contributions from the latter Tho Senate passes upon the appointment of many of these officers, and may pass upon the ques tioa of their reappointment or removal. Senators and Representatives are consulted and have large influence in their section. For this and other reasons which have been 90 frequently and ably stated trust the practice of such solicitations will stop"
 The Civil Service reformers have reason to oe pleased with the growing popularity of heir cause. The great and good men of the country are rapidly "coaaing into the light''a

The blood is the foundation of life, it circulates through every part of the body, and unless it is pure and rich, good health is impossible. If disease has entered the system the onLy sure and quick way to drive it out is to purify and enrich the blood.
 These simple facts are well known, and the highest medical authorities agree that nothtng but iron will restore the blood to its natural condition and also that ali the iron preparations hitherto made blacken the teeth, cause head ache, and are otherwise injurious.
 BRoWN's IRON BITTERs will thor oughly and quickly assimilate with the blood, purifying and strengthen ing 1t, and thus drive disease from any part of the system, and it will nof blacken the teeth, cause head ache or constipation, and is posi- lively not injurious.

 Gents Upon the recommenda- ton of friend I tried BROWNS IRON BIrTERs as a tonic and re- storative for my daughter, whom I was thoroughly convinced was wasting away with Consumption. Having lost three daughters by the terrible disease, under the care of eminent physicians, I was 10th to believe that anything could arrest the progress of the disease, but, to my great surprise, before my daugh- ter had taken one bottle of BROWN s IRON BIrTRRs, she began to mend and now is quite restored to former health. A fifth daughter began to show signs of Consumption, and when the physician was consulted he quickly said "Tonics were re- quired;" and when informed that the elder sister was taking BRowN's S IRON BIrTERs, responded "that is good tonic, take it.''

Was She Dead or Alive?

Young Lady's Appearance fn the Tomb Cincinnati, Aug. p. dispatch to Chicago Tribune.
 Late last night the body of Alice Link meyer, the Sharonville school-teacher, whom it was thought had been buried in trance was taken from the vault in the Westches- ter cemetery and carried back to the home of her parents. The young woman was taken sick the first of last week with cholera mor- bus She died, as it was supposed, on Fri day, and the funeral occurred on Sunday
 The village undertaken said he thought her appearance too lifelike to risk a thorough freezing of the remains or an immediate burial The body was consequently taken to the vault in the cemetery at Westchester. After a funeral service on Sunday, which was attended by an immense throng of peo- pie, the sexton and a number of neighbors volunteered to keep 8 close watch of the re- mains, to see if signs of life returned. Until dark the face would be flushed at times, and again real pale. With the light of a lantern they continued their watch after night, and were much surprised to notice a constant change in the color of the face, which finally settled into a deep red, as it is now. Several times the sexton and his help CTS thought she was about to revive. Yes terday the face retained the same strange appearance, and intense interest in the case was manifested by the people for miles around. After taking the body back again to the home of the girls parents, an examina.
 
 Drs. Streeter and Smizer, who used gal vanic battery upon the body, and made vari- ous other tests to ascertain whether the vital spark had fed. The tests failed to reveal the least sign of life. To-day they made other efforts to restore her, but all failed and they decided that the woman was certainly dead. The excitement in the village is un- bounded. The place is filled with people from all the surrounding neighborhood and 8 large crowd surrounds the house eager to learn the least particulars of the affair. The young woman still has all the appearance of life. The cheeks have B rosy, healthful glow, and the limbs are but slightly rigid. To the casual observer she seems like person in a feverish sleep. This afternoon slight trace of decomposition was noted about the finger tips, and it was reluctantly admitted by all that she was dead. The theory now is that she did not die until after her funeral, which occurred on Sunday. The removal of the body from the house to the vault in Vest chester is thought by the neighbors to have been the immediate cause of her death. The lady will not be buried for a day or two yet, but close watch will be kept to prevent any accident or attempt to rob the vault.

The Fusionists of Maine have not hssitatsd to charge that Solon Chase is in Republican pay. MT. Chase denies that he has ever taken or been offered money by the RepublI- cans, or been approached by them in any way. All the bribes and offers, he says have come from the Fusion party, and date back to the last Presidential canvass. He charges that Governor Plaisted then in person offered to get him all the subscribers to his paper he wanted and that $500 would be paid him on the spot if he would not give his influence in favor of running a straight Greenback elsc- toral ticket. Uncle Solon says that Plaisted even pleaded with his wife, "Aunt Ann," but failed to convince either of them. This is an awkward charge for Governor Plaisted to meet just as the campaign is closing.

The oil spectators of north western Penn sylvania are excited over the discovery of yet another oil field. It is situated in Venango county, about seven miles south of Oil City, near the small village of Cranberry. The field is suspected to be small one, as most of the territory has already bscn tested. Yet preparations arc making for the construction of the usual oil town. The Western Union Telegraph company has already opened an office on the spot, and the Buffalo, Pittsburg and Western railroad intends to extend one of its branch lines to the place. Far to the southwest in Butler county big oil we'll hes also been opened. In Forest county, directly south of the Cherry Grove oil field in Warren county, it is feared by holders of oil that new oil field has been discovered. At present the production of oil is 100000 barrels a day.
 This is an over production, which has caused

In a recent examination for School Board scholarships in London the following answers were given to the question: "what impor. tant events are connected with John of Gaunt, Cardinal Wolsey, Walpole and Gives ?" Answer-"John of Gaunt was the first martyr. Cardinal Wolsey was great warrior. Give translated the Bible. Wal pole was another favorite of Henry VIII. He was the chief man in helping Henry to get divorce" The answer in reply to the query, 'State what you know of the treaties of Bretigny and Utrecht ?" was ''Ths treaty of Utrecht was fought between the Zulus and tho English" It is not surprising that Dr. Morris, one of the examiners, thinks that "a little wedding out in the num- Der of candidates previous to examination is most desirable.''
