The Civil Service.

milwaukee, sen Tfnel.
Dorman B. Eaton has an article on the progress
of civil-service reform in the current number of
the North American Review, in which he gives
some illustrations of the vigor with which the
spois system still struggles against it, Not
many weeks since young lady in great de-
partment, amid sobs and imprecations, charged
the head of the Office there, in Mr.. Eatons hear
ing, with prtting her out of u laborer's place to
make place for his Town sweetheart The
charge was not denied That lady has since, by
her merits, in an examination, won a higher po-
sition. This advertisement is from Washing
ton journal Of April IT, 1885: Il will give $500
for position in any branch of the government
service that will evade the civil service Ad-

gress from the Twenty first Ohio district, Mr..
Foran. authorizes Mr.. Eaton to say that in two

Mr. Eaton has letter dated London, March z,
1885, written by merchant of that city named
Charles O. Olson, to the Hon. Leopold Morse, of
Boston, in which an offer is made of 81. 500 for
procuring the consulship at Gothenburg Sweden.

An Heroic Cure for the Opium Habit.

From an Experience with Opium in Popular Science
A pathetic story has lately come to my knowl-
edge of young man, an undergraduate in an
Eastern college, who had become victim of the
hypodernic use of morphia. He went with his
father, who was engaged in the lum bering inter-
est, into the prmeval forests of Maine, hoping
that during stay of months with the wood.
choppers he would be able to fight out the battle
of gradual abandonment successfully. Through
strange fatality. when the party had just ar
rived at their camping place, and were trans
porting their goods across stream, the
case of morphia broken by
an apparent accident and its contents
scattered into the water. None but the haggard
young man could, at the moment, comprehend
the appalling magnitude of the calamity-there,
as he was, 200 miles from the nearest settlement!
He survived the terrible ordeal, but no words
could express, he has said, the tortures and
agony through which he passed during the sue
ceeding weeks. He was closely watched, else, at
times, he would have drowned himself or have
beaten his brains out upon the rocks Mont his
afterward he came back to the world a skeleton,
worn and haggard, from his terrible contest 1t

With the termination of the worlds exposi-

Immediately on the reception of his commits

attractions of the wonderful resources of the

While General Carnahan sustained his reputa-

yielded his ability and time various important
events. On the demonstration on Pythian Day,

high esteem and regard accorded him by many

Where Is This Park, Please?
Minnea polls Tribune.

Indianapolis has park, and in that park are
lakes. Parks are good thing, and every park
must have one or more lakes. but the pleasant
people who live in the vicinity of the Innanapo-
fortune. They claim that the park lakes produce
malaria. The origin of the prevailing disease in
Indiana has thus been ascertained and great
burden of disgrace has been lifted from the
bosoms of the Shiny Wabash and the sluggish
White, while Pogue's run and the lagoons of
central Indiana will fairly bubble with laughter
as they think of the mischief they can do while
the park lakes of indianapolis suffer all the
odium. Still there is a lurking belief in the
diana even if the puddles in the indianapolis
park were filled up, and quinine has not begun
to show downward tendency yet.

that may be able to return and enlarge the
commercial relations between the two countries.
China is our nearest Asiatic neighbor, and is
nearer to Us than to the commercial nations of
Europe. There ought to be vast market in
China for petroleum, railroad supplies, hard
