The Baltimore Sun is satisfied with the
Civil Service Commission. That journal
thinks the slur cast upon the Commission
in the statement that it requires fancy
learning" on the part of the applicants
for public position unjust, since SO far as
can be ascertained the appointees are
about evenly divided between the two
great parties, and have been apportioned
among the States in strict conformity
with the act. The new system, there
fore, cannot be objected to properly on
either sectional or partisan grounds.
That the examinations have been effect.
ual in giving satisfactory class Of clerks
to the service appears from the fact that
out of 1892 appointees only three have
been removed for cause. In view OF this
record, the Commission and the friends
of the act are justified in claiming that
the new system has passed the period Of
experiment.

morning John Wisholm, the father of
one of the many families of Swedes liv-
ing at the ore mines in Center Town.
ship, was taken suddenly i'll, and before
physician could be summoned he died.
His form was cold and rigid, the lower
jaw fallen, and the ,ashy pallor of death
on the face. The family gave loud ex-
preston to their grief, the elder son in
particular He called on his father to
come back, and was with difficulty re-
strained from prostrating himself upon
the corpse. Hoping to comfort the grief
stricken family by spiritual consolation,
the resident clergyman remained with
them until 2 o'clock, P. NJ. Then, as he
was about to 60 away, the son was seized
with another paroxysm Of grief more vio-
lent than that preceding it. He threw
himself on the body of his father, en-
braced him, and piteously implored him
to speak once more, and not to leave
him without a recognition. As though
the agonized voice had penetrated the
silence of the other world, the lips of the
father moved, the eyes opened, and cast
reproachful look on his weeping son,
and in the well known voice came dis.
tinctly these words: "Oh, why did you
call me back ?" As soon as the awe
stricken group could regain their com
posure they Immediately administered
restoratives to the patient. When th'
clergyman left him he was very weak
but still alive.
Yesterday he repeated his experience
up to the time when he was apparentl.
recalled to life When he died he frs
felt sinking sensation, knew every
thing that went on in the room, bu
could not speak. He next remembered
of being in dense darkness, and bein
led by two invisible forms, moving a
though floating in the air, with nothin
above or below. Then it seemed to b
lighter every moment, and he saw tw
beautiful shining forms on either side @
him. He experienced feeling of pei
feet peace and heard the most soothin
and delightful music. The feeling {
rest was the most noticeable thing i
his new state until it was disturbed by
voice in pain calling him. He felt
thrill of regret, then, at being calle
back, and he seemed to be back in tt
old pain.racked body again, and openir
his eyes he found his son and family cr

Mr.. Wisholm lived until yesterday, al

was in a syncope, from which the pier
ing lamentations OF his family arous
him, or whether he had, indeed, be-
permitted to return after glance at t
other world, none can answer. o
thing, however, is certain, that for t

opinion of the doctor, the pastor and t
family, and as far as outward indicatio
are agreed, the man was dead. The
