conditions of the contract Excepting there
from, such items of materials that have re-
jected as unfit, for Use in the building, and
such changes have ordered the contractors
to make all of which are but trihing and
of no prejudice to the work actually per-
formed and built into the building.

from persons who know not whereof they
speak, or by persons trying to injure all
parties interested. These various reports do
not merit your attention, and need only be
refereed TO me.
To satisfy a wish expressed by many of
the tax-paying citizens of your county. for

the court house. l would suggest and rec
commend TO you, the appointment of To-
cal superintendent or clerk of works, whose

ton to n daily and constant watching of the
work. This is customary in nll works of a
public character aud any number of prece-
dents can be furnished you.

Public Opinion on the Chinese Bill.
Special to the Chicago Tribun

A gentleman who isl constant visitor n,
the White House, accounts for the veto or
the theory that the President was brought
to believe the Republican sentiment of the
country was in opposition to the bill. He
says the Presidents mail during the past
week has been largely made up of letters
protesting against the approval of the bill,
and that these letters came from every sec
ton, some of them from the Pacific States.
There were enough of these letters shown
him, he said, to fill large basket, and a
large proportion of them were from persons
of prominence and good standing.

THE CIVIL SERVICE.
A Substitute for the Pending Pendleton
Bill.

Mr.. Dawes introduced in the Senate today
an amendment which is to be offered as q
a substitute for the pending civil service bill
1t is the same bill introduced by Mr.. Dawes
on the Oath of January last. 1t authorizes
the President to appoint three persons in
each department to constitute board of ex-
aminers, who shall examine the applications
for appointment and competitors tor promo
ton that original appointments shall be
made only to clerkship of class one, of which
the salary is $1,000 per annum, or to clerk
ship Of which the salary is less than $1,000;
that all appointments shall be made for q
probationary term of six months. at the ex.
piration of which term the clerk shall be re.
appointed, if to be retained; that any me m.
Der of the examining board who shall be
convicted Of corruption in connection with
appointments or promotions shall be
fined not less than 500. nor more
than $1,000. and be imprison-
ed not less than ten days nor more than one
year, or both. All vacancies in higher grades
are to be filled by competitive examinations
The substitute differs from Pendleton's DILL
in the following essentia. particulars:
In the Pendleton bill the examining board
is to consist of Eve persons, not more than
three belonging to the same political party,
and two of whom shall be experienced officers
in the public service, but not in the same de-
partment, the others being civilians. An
examiner and stenographer are to be con-
nected to assist the board. The board has
powers of substitution under certain condi
tons. The nine fundamental rules prescrib-
ed in the Pendleton bill to govern the board,
as nearly as the conditions Of good admins
tration will warrant, are omitted in the sub
stitute of Dawes.

BANGOR.
Six Men Supposed to Have Been Drown.
ed in Moose head Lake.
BANGOR, Dec 10.

BANGOR, Dec 10.
A special to the Wing and Courier from
Mt. Kineo. says that fears are entertained
that a party OF six men, including DR.. N. S.
Davis Of Abbott village, were drowned in
Moosehead Lake last Thursday. Five men
were conveying DR.. Davis across the lake to
visit the wife of John Hildreth, lumberman,
at the Northwest Garry. They left Mount
Kineo at 1920 A. NJ. Thursday, expecting to
get there in about four hours, and At noon
Friday they had not arrived. w. II. Hill
dreth left Northwest Garry at that time by
land, reaching Greenville Sunday afternoon,
for the purpose of ascertaining if the doctor
had been sent and why detained. 1t is hoped
that the party may have gone ashore and
reached there after Hildreth left. but not
probable as high winds prevailed Thursday
afternoon, and had they reached the shore
in safety they would have arrived at camp
before that late hour. The men were G..
Knight of Dexter, Charles Meservey of
Greenville. and three Frenchmen, names
unknown.

ST. LOUIS, Dec 10.
Charles l.. Lamb, son of DIR. c. l.. Lamb,
a wealthy and highly respected citizen of
Hannibal, while very drunk Friday went to
the house of man named Hull living in
Dreary Hallow, a mile or two from here, to
see woman with whom it is said he was
formerly intimate, but who recently married
Hull. Lamb became abusive and was or
dered out of the house. He refused to 60,
and in = scuffle to put him out he knocked
the woman down. Hull then struck him
with poker, knocking him out of the door,
which was closed upon him. The drunken man
then reeled around to the side of the house,
discharged the pistol through the window,
the ball taking effect in Mrs. Hulrs left side,
killing her almost instantly. Lamb fled on
the Wabash train, but was captured at
Chaplin, Ills, and brought back yesterday
taken to Palmyra Jail last night after having
been arraigned for murder in the LIST degree.
Lamb is the grandson of Cladbarne F. Jack

A NARROW ESCAPE.
The Story of the Butchery Of Biggs and
Mcdonald by Juh's Band.

DENVER, Col, Dec TO-
A special from Albuquerque. n. NJ, says:
Frank Josselyn, or deaf Sandy" as he is
called, has just arrived at Silver City from
Chihuahua. Josselyn was with Mcdonald
and Biggs when they were murdered by Juh's
band of Apaches. The three men had been
riding hard all day. They ;had seen the
Apaches' trail, but no Indians. Arriving at
Paso Del Chocokh, Biggs and Mcdonald
proposed to camp. Josselyn would not con-
sent. as he thought it dangerous and he made
of a few hundred yards while Biggs and
Mcdonald unsaddled their horses. JOS
selyn had about decided to return to his
companions when the Apaches made their
appearance, firing vOlley At the two campers
who fell. Josselyn put spurs to his horse
and escaped. He returned to the spot later
with 60 well armed men and buried the
bodies of Biggs and Mcdonald. An Indian
scout ascertained that the Apache murderers
are under command of Mana. himself, the
war chief of the Apaches, who was reported
killed last year. The whole State of Chihua-
hua is in arms.

ACHANGE OF BASE.
IL the GOv..Elect of Massac husetts n Re-.
publican or q Democrat

New YORK, Dec 10.
The Herald in an editorial headed "Burier
a Republican Governor" says: Gen. Butler
has jumped the fence again, if report be true,
for it is said he remarked a few DAYS ago that
having been elected mainly by the republic
cans, he was q republican governor This
may not please the Massachusetts, democrats,
but the General did not pretend to 20 into
the canvass for their sake. He was working
for himself, ~ all other candidates, ire
spective OF party. were doing 4 few weeks
ago. Whether the republicans will rejoice
that the wandering sheep has been found
again, or rather that he never was lost, de-
ponds on what the General may take it into
his head to do. But that he still belongs to
the party OF moral ideas should do great
deal towards pacifying that astonished and
agrieved Massachusetts patriot Senator Hoar.
for to him Massachusetts republication seems
10 cover more sins than charity ever could
hnd without looking many times.
