WASHINGTON,
A SPECIAL CIVIL SERVICE RTLE.
Made by the President to Improve tfae
Service.


WAsHINGroy, Oct. 2.-The President
has issued the following special rule for
the regulation and improvement of civil
service.
Especial Rule No. >, approved July Is,
1884, is hereby revoked. All applicants
on any register for postal or customs ser
vice, who on the first day OF November
next shall have been thereon one year
or more, shall in conformity with rule
IS, be no longer eligible for appointment,
from such register" The special rule,
which is now revoked, provided that the
name of those persons on the registers of
the commission are eligible for appoint
ment prior to July l6, 1884, should not
be taken off at the end OF the year, from
date of being entered thereon, but should
remain on the registers as eligible for
appointment for two years from that
date, without further examination or
notice A reporter OF the Associated
Press called upon Commissioner Eaton
in regard to the foregoing new special
rule made by the President to-day.
"Was that rule" asked the reporter,
"made on the recommendation OF the
Commission"
Mr.. Eaton: at was.
"How long hadthis subject been under
consideration ?'
Eaton: II cannot answer definitely.
have draft of the rule on the subject,
made in August, before / left Wash
ngton for my summer vacation, the
matter was much discussed by the Com
mission"
''What effect will this rule serve?''
at will take off the registers for GER
titication, those of lower grade than
applicants who have received appoint
ment. 1t can hardly be said that it will
give those to be hereafter examined any
better chances for getting appointments.
Because every one is certified for ap-
pointment on basis OF his grade and re-
gardless of the time of his examination
In other words the best OF those on any
new examination are sure to be marked
higher than those LETT from the former
examination, after the superior ones
have been appointed and in more re-
cent nomination. Those competing are
decidedly supe riOr to those who COM
peted in the earlier examinations.
The change now made will prevent
the i'll informed from thinking that per-
sons examined more than year ago are
retained in the registers, in order to
give them places. Until this special rule
was made. all persons examined from
the beginning OF the work of the Com
mission had been retained on the regis
tiers, but all those left on the registers
from the early examinations are marked
so low that they would have had no
chances fer an appointment, even had
not the special rule been made

SEAL FISHERIES
Their Location in the North AtIanti,
How the Animals Are Killed.

Their Location in the North Atlantic
How the Animals Are Killed.
The seal fishery as at. present pursued
in the north Atlantic is practically CON
fined, says The London Standard, to the
ice foes in the vicinity of Jan Mayen
island, and those not far from the shores
Of Newfoundland and Labrador. The
Eskimo and other Arctic tribes kill large
numbers along the shores of Greenland,
the Arctic archipelago, Labrador, and
Siberia, The Newfoundland sealers are
numerous, though, as a rule, their YES
sells are of a smaller tonnage than those
employed In the Jan Mayen hunt. Yet,
being nearer port than the latter, the
former, by making several trips in
season, are able to land greater aggregate
CargOes. The Dundee mentor the
trade is all but concentrated in that
pOrt-leave home in the month of
March, and by the aid of steam or fair
winds reach the southern extension of
the ice-helds in eight or ten days.
Every eye is now on the alert. The
captain passes half the day in the
''croW's nest on the royal masthead,
and as every man on board is a direct
sharer in the cargo, and a direct loser by
the ill-success Of the venture, there is
little chance OF a litter Of seals escaping
the keen scrutiny which is every
moment directed to the ice-felds along
the margin of which the vessel is rum
ming. The business Is, nevertheless, not
without danger. The seal, it is true is a
small animal, and a tinid one compared
with the great WhRlebOne whale. But
in April the long summer day of the
Arctic regions has not yet begun, and
during the dark nights the vessel runs
constant risks from the ice, from the
storms which at this season are frequent,
and the other ishaps to which a cruiser
In the seventeen parallel of north iati-
tude is constantly liable. Even when
the seals are sighted they may be so far
in on the endless ice-held that the crew
must regard them as forbidden fruit, and
spend the deeting days in vainly seach-
ing lOr a lead" through which they
might penetrate to the living fortune be
yOnd. If. however, the herd is within a
short distance Of the ice edge, then the
slaughter begins at once. The old ones
are shot, or, should they cling to their
helpless young, unable to take TO the
water for some days yet, or are too far
from 1t to escape their enemies, are club
bed. The meWing white coats, as the
pups are called from the color Of their
first pelt, are either kicked on the muZzle
or dispatched with q blow Of the heavy
iron spiked mallet. Meantime, while
one patty are killing, another are rapidly
Aaying them, or dragging the hides and
blubber to the margin of the foe, where
the boats are waiting TO convey the
cargo to the ship cruising little way OF
or, lt may be, anchored to the edge OF
the field on which this carnage is pro
csediug. Then In q few hours, the ice is
scarlet with blood and carcases, and, this
lock destroyed, the vessel gets under

The American boy is slowly bat surely
deteriOrating into the American hOOdlum.
He is evincing q disposition to wear out
his homer and conscience playing pool
when heshOuld be wearing out the knees
Of his pants playing marble; he is suck
ing the end of a nasty cigarette when he
should be reveling in the sweetness of a
stick Of peppermint candy, and he is
stunting the growth of his tree Of life by
endeaVOring to force its fruit into unnatu-
raj ripeness before the time is at hand.
Instead Of engraving be good and be
true" upon the tablet Of his memory he
scratches down eco it while you're
young" and proceeds to follow ~ his
motto to the letter. And, as a result he
is considered a mischievous y0ungster at
sixteen; a rapid rascal at twenty; q hard
citizen at twenty. five, and vicious scoun-
drel at thirty, If an outraged Providence
doesn't push him into perditiOn before
he reaches that age. There Is no excuse
for it, boys, and you have it all in your
own hands If you want II so. it is just
as easy for you to grow mp and feel the
tsndrils Of the vine of the C0mmunity's
respect and affection tWining around you
as it is Tor you to grow up in the briar
patch Of public scOrn and distrust.

Oh say, was there no desert spot in thy heart
Where mine might have rested in silence apart?
spot, which, though withered and blglted by pain
My love like a sunbeam had frightened again?
Was it we'll with touch that was almost divine
To tune my weak heart to the music of thine?
Till its chords broke in dscord Of passion and pain
Then walled into silence, in silence remain.
Was there no SORROW no burden of care,
That might have lightened or helped thee to bear?
No grief to be lessened ere reaching thy heart
By passing through mine, and there leaving its
smartl
With love, passing love, my spirit had sought
To mingle with thine, and to think thy hearts
thought,
Lives thousand to spare thee tear, had given,
And lost for thy sake, cen the glory of Heaven.
Yet think not that blame thee hardly dare l re-
pine,
Thy love was treasure, too rare, to be mine;
But think that in heaven the links of a chain,
When severed on earth are united again.
Should fortune betray thee or sorrow assail;
And life worn and weary thy spirit grow pale,
When gazing around thee, thou seest not friend,
Think the love that mine, had been true to the
end. G.
