Sarah Barnum Translated in a Jifr
NesO York Sun. Jan. s.

Fifty-nine scholarly-looking men sat In
brightly lighted room with their legs
under three long pine tables at 696 Broad
way last evening. They were in a state
of bristlng excitement. Each man had a
pen in his right hand and page of the
French edition of Sarah Barnumv before
him. AT the left hand of each translator.
for such were the MISUNDERSTANDING men,
was bottle of beer. Whenever a trans
lator found himself barricaded by tough
French idiom his left hand sought the beer
bottle. As the book contains many tough
idi0ms, much beer was consumed. With.
in convenient reach Of all were pictures
que piles of sandwiches and packages of
cigarettes. Fragments Ofcigarettes, half
eaten sandwiches, and an unguessable
number of empty beer bottles scattered
cOnfusedly over empty chairs and tables
were all that could be seen In the room.
At II p. IN. the book had been rendered
into English, edited, and sent to the
printers.
Drs. Fred c. Valentine and Leigh W.
Hunt supervised the work. DR.. Hunt
said that the translators had been at work
since 1 o'clock in the afternoon. OF the
900 copies of the French edition that
arrived here on Tuesday not one was I'M
sold Yesterday. The English edition of
the book will be ready for sale this after

COTToN.-The market was not quite so
buoyant as yesterday, and towards the close
was rather tame. Buyers were neither very
active nor urgent. Factors continue very
hrm and keep prices mp pretty well, the
strength Of the market being found in the
small receipts at the ports and interior. There
IS. however. some Is mptOms Of reaction on
account OF the large stock in sight and the
impression that the sudden falling ID ia Srri-
walls only TEN orary. IhhuenCed by this
idea sad the extreme views OF holders buyers
took very sparingly OF offerings. and the aggre-
gate day'- sales 6ot mp Only l.o05 bales. The

AN INEXPERIENCE INTER
VIEWER.

The arrival OF Patti in San Fran
cisco of course brought the usual
swarm of interviewers to her room,
all Of whom, with An artists tact.
she graciously received. All
metropolitan newspaper men like
to be interviewers, Is it is much
pleasanter hobnobbing with Gen.
Grant. drinking champagne with
the King of the Sandwich Islands
or having q half hour chat with .
distinguished and attractive woman
than proving about the city front
for corpses at l O'Clock in the morn
ing or losfng about the city
prison wrangling with Captain
Douglass over municipal politics.
While interviewing in all of its
branches is the most delicate and
difficult of newspaper work, and re-
quires the NEST thorough knowl-
edge of the world and the people in
it, there never was a city reporter,
no matter how much or how little
he had seen of the business, who
did not think that interviewing
great people was the special branch
of journalism for which Providence
had designed him. The Chronicle
and the Examiner both sent repre-
sentatives to Patti. The Chronicle
man, who was evidently an old
hand at the business, was not
thrown off his balance by the COM
mission he had in hand and accord
ingly gave the public his impress
sions of Patti without stopping
over or making an ass of himself.
He had the sense to place Patti in
the foreground and say as little as
possible about himself. Contrasted
with this was the Examiner mans
report, which showed q callow and
conceited novice at work. The re-
porter devoted about as much space
to himself as he did to Patti and
was green enough to reproduce in
print all the complimentary things
Patti said to him. She probably
showered these same compliments
upon the Chronicle man as a matter
of business and to cheaply secure
the good will of the paper but the
reporter was too old . bird to put
them in print. The Examiner man
went away with the idea that he had
greatly impressed Patti. Hear him:
The reporter arose to retire. The
prima donna. who had held in her
hand a little bouquet of violets,
opened his coat and suddenly put
the bouquet in his pocket.
Keep this as souvenir" she
said. sweetly. i've may never meet
again after I leave this city, and |
would like you to have something
to remember me by
I'VE may never meet again" is
good. There is no doubt that Patti
has worked this little bouquet
racket as many as 10000 times and
must enjoy it immensely when she
finds an interviewer who is foolish
enough to put it in print

Civil Service Reform.

The Civil Service Commission
has made its report and holds that
the scheme has been tested and
found highly successful. It pro
poses to make appointments upon
a test of actual capacity and not
allow them to be governed by pol
itics. While this will not practi-
cally work in many cases the doc
trine by which men in various de-
partments are advanced is good
one, because such men are apt to
be more competent than new ap-
poiutments from the outside. The
report says:
1t is still possible to remove
every person in the service once in
four years or once in four months,
but the vacancies can be flied only
by those who, irrespective of party.
demonstrate their superiority in a
free open competition as to char
acter and capacity. It appears from
statistics presented with that re-
port that sixty per cent. of those
who entered the service through
the competitive examinations were
educated in the common schools
alone and the Commission con-
slider it unquestionable that the
country by bestowing its Offices
upon the most meritorious of those
whom the States have educated at
the public expense, will greatly
honor and stimulate the public
school system Of the country. The
report gives extracts from large
number of letters received from
Postmasters and Collectors, show
ing that great benefit has accrued
to the public service by the en-
forcement of the civil service rzles.
It is suggested that party tests be no
longer applied in the selection of
collectors and Postmaster, and that
