CIVIL SERVICE REFORM OPERATING.
Inconvenience Caused by the Premature
Removal of Medical Examiners.

HARTFORD, Conn, Sept 1.-two of the
three medical examiners of pensioners of
this district which includes also part of
Massachusetts, were removed from office
about two weeks ago and ordered to give
up the books and papers to the other mem
Der of the board who was in Europe.
Consequently when the pensioners report
ed for examination last Wednesday as
directed from Washington, there was no
one authorized to examine them. The
chairman of the board returned from
Europe this week and at once resigned on
learning what change had been made. The
two Democrats who had been appointed
to the other vacancies have not yet received
their official papers and consequently the
pensioners who reported here to-day from
Massachusetts and Connecticut were also
unable to secure an examination. They
have to bear the whole expense of TIE trip
to this city, and much annoyance has been
caused by the change made.

After very close and critical eXamna-
ton, it was announced that Campbell
Dawson had stood the best examination
After passing through this severe ordeal
Mr.. Dawson was subjected to medical
examination which proved very tlatter-
ing. At the close of this last test the
Hon, Charles Stewart conferred the ap-
pointment to the West Point Military
academy upon him. The young gentle
man who has such bright prospects before
him is the son of the Rev, w. &. Dawson,

Mary Had IA Little Kid.

Mary had little hlack-cycd kid.
All orphan-cosset--h brought up by hand;
Whatever he saw that Mary did
To try that feat this dear kid was bound.
Dick would climb and play yes he would butt,
And one day pitched Mary in the pond =
But eating was the kids strongest point,
Aud of tarts and stamps alike was fond.
Sometimes he would try tempting shoe,
An aprOu-string or tomato can,
or old hoop skirt anything would do
For this spOrtivc young barbarian.
Poor Dicks eyes with wonder opened wide
when Mary took some CASTORIA Drops
So he smashed the vial by her de
And Tapped the drcgs before he stopped.

Mary found Dick sulcn on the grass -

Minister Phelps asa Speaker.
From the London Times !

It VII VTTO I''TTI7TVTT IIIT'N'I
The new American Minister is treading
successfully in the footsteps of his prede-
cessor. Mr. Lowell perceived that in no
way could he so commend himself and
his country to the English people as by
turning to account his remarkable power
of interesting speech. He was ever ready
to take his part at public banquets, to pre-
side at the meeting of literarys societies,
to unvell the busts of great writer's of the
past; and on every occasion he had some
thing to say that edited, that stimulated
that amused. To succeed man, who had
BILE TO English audiences was no light
task ; but Mr.. Phelps, who undertook it,
bids fair to prove that his courage was
not misplaced.

BOILING DEAD BODIES.


SAN FRANCISCO, Cal, Sept. IA horr-
BILE discovery was made in Chinatown to-
day Information was given the city
coroner that II frightful stencil was being
emitted from a cellar on Pacific street.
He went to the cellar. forced his way in
and found the floor covered with human
skulls, partially covered with flesh in the
last stage of decomposition. In an inner
room the coroner found a number of
Chinese engaged in boiling down the re-
mains of other bodies. while several
Others were engaged in scraping the boiled
bones and packing them in boxes for ship
ment to China. 1t is estimated that the
cellar contained over 800 dead bodies
which have been taken secretly from the
cemeteries. AS an instance of Chinese
ingenuity it is stated that those in charge
of these operators fearing that the stencil
| from the boiling pots would be so great
| as to attract attention had procured
| two living skunks so the odor of the latter
might overcome the odor of the former
| The coroner has taken charge of all the re-
| mains.
