CIVIL SERVICE LISTS.
NAMES OF APPLICANTS TO BID
DROPPED AFTER a YEAR.

The New Rule Recommended by the
CommissiOR--No Hardship Imposed on
Those who Passed Examinations and
Failed to Secure an Appolntment--Tw0
Years the Original Limit.
WASHINGTON, Oct. 2.-The Presidents
Issued the following special rule for the
regulation and improvement Of the civil
service:
special Rule No. ,, approved July ls, 1884.
Is hereby reyoked-al applicants'On any regis-s
ter for the postal or customs service who ON
the nrst day Of November next shall havo
heen thereon one year or more, shali in con-.
tormlty with rule 10, be no longer eligible for
appointment from such register"
WHAT THE RULE PROVIDED.
The special rule which is now revoked
provided that the names Of those persons
On the registers of the commission eligi-
BILE for appointment prior to July l6, SS4,
should not be taken of at the end OF a
year from the date OF being entered there-
on, but should remain on the registers as
eligible for appointment for two years
from that date without further examina-
tlon or notice.
RECOMMENDED BY THE COMMISSION.
reporter OF the Associated Press CALI
ed 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 recommendation OF the CONS
mission?o
Mr.. Eaton--It was.
The Reporter-How long he'd this SUBJ
ject been under consideration?
Mr.. EatOn--l cannot answer definitely.
l have drafts Of the rule on the subject
made IN August before left Washington
for my summer vacation. The matter
was much discussed by the commission.
THE OBJECT TO BE SERVED.
The Reporter-What object will the
rule serve?
Mr.. EatOn--It will take of the registers
for certitcation OF those of lower grade
than applicants who have received ap-
pointments. IL can hardly be said that it
will give those 10 be hereafter exams
ined any better chances for
getting appointments, because every
one is certified for appointments
on the basis Of his grade and regardless
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 aformer examination
after the superior ones have been appoint
ed; and in the more recent examinations
those competing are decidedly superior 10
those who competed at the earlier exami-
nations.
A RESULT OF THE CHANGE.
The change now made Will prevent
those not we'll informed from thinking
that persons examined more than year
ago are retained on the registers IN order
TO give them places. Until this last
special rule was made all persons ex-
amined from the beginning OF the work
OF the commission had been retained on
the registers; but all those LETT on the
registers from the early examinations
are marked so low that they would have
had no chance for an appointment even
had not the special rule been made.
1t is stated that the President has not
as yet selected a single member OF the
new Civil Service Commission.

tl0n.

DALLAS, TEX. Oct. 2.-J. b. Kane and
John Cormack, citizens Of Lampasas, who
wero passengers on the stage from San
Angelo to Abilene, give the following
account OF a daring robbery committed 16
miles east Of Runnells:
A smooth-faced boy, about IS years Of
age, met and passed the stage. He was
riding gray horse. lie wore loose blue
flannel shirt, and his trousers we're stuck
in his boots. He carried a Winche4yT
rifle and a six-shOoter. After the stlee
passed him he turned and demanded a
halt. The driver whipped up his team
and an exciting race for half mile ensued
before the stage was oyerhauled by the
highwayman, who demanded the mail
sacks, at the same time saying that he did
not care 10 disturb the passengers, six in
number, including lady.
THE SACKS HANDED OVER.
The mail sacks were delivered 30 him
when he carried them 200 yards out on
the prairie and leisurely appropriated
what be wanted. While this scene was
being enacted the stage from Abilene for
San Angelo came up with seven male
passengers. Weapons were called for.
A man who claimed 10 be ranger en-
route 10 Runnells loaded bis pistol,
buckled on his belt and held himself In
readiness 10 repel any attack that might
be made on his stage. The robber, how
ever, after satisfying himself, rode of,
leaving the mail bags on the prairie. on
GERS are now Ia hot pursuit OF him. He
is supposed 10 be the same highwayman
who robbed the mail between Cisco and
BrOwnWOOd q few days ago.

THE SEWERAGE QUESTION

The sewerage question and the nuisances
growing out of defective drainage was the
subject of good deal of talk and specula-
ton yesterday, many asserting that it was of
more vital importance than the building of
railroads. The condition of the open ditch
on South Topeka avenue and all along its
course across English street and down EN-
poria, is becaming death-dealing channel.
Two deaths which recently occurred along
its course are attributed to its poisonous e1-
halations. An open sewer will not do for
several reasons. At every rainfall holes are
made in the bottom of the ditch and the dirt
is washed up into bars in other places, so that
the course Of the water is obstructed. Again it
becomes the receptacle of all sorts of filth.
Luxurient vegetation lines its banks and
when it decays it mingles its poisons with
the polluted waters. This question came up
for consideration at the last regular meeting
of the city council, in consequence of COM
plants by citizens living along the worst
part of the ditch on South Topeka avenue,
and p. V. Healy, J. c. Richey and F. r.
Stone, were appointed committee to in
vestigate the condition of the place COM
planned of and to devise means for abating
the nuisance. We have been informed that
one member of the committee is in favor of
putting in drain box five feet in depth and
five wide following the course of the present
ditch. Another is in favor of building q
brick sewer from First street down Topeka
avenue and SO on to the river, not following
the present ditch only as far as it goes on
Topeka avenue. The upper portion of the
city, this last member thinks can be drained
into Chisholm creek

A LEGAL RANCHERO.

The EAGLE was honored yesterday after
noon by call from Hon John NJ. Russell,
a prominent lawyer Of Urbana, O., who
made the call at the solicitation of VIM.
Baldwin, formerly our city attorney and
later representative to the legislature. Our
old friend Baldwin-and he has many
friends in this city-lives near Urbana on a
farm, has entirely regained his health and is
consequently happy. We hope it won't
disturb his equanimity to learn that his old
homeste id just across from the opera house
and in rsar of the new county building, is
now owned by the Episcopal society and is
valued i: from ten to fifteen thousand dol
lars. Mr.. Russell, who has made two or
three visits to this valley lately, informs us
that he has abandoned the practice of law,
and that he purchased last week 9. 400 acres OF
land in body few miles west of Anthony
on Sand creek, in Harper county, with the
view of turning it into fine cattle ranch.
He will give his attention to the breeding
of fine cattle and high grades of the Gallo
way and Shorthorn strains. Mr.. Russell
says Wichita as city holds the key to the
and must remain the hub of the
Rackensack empire.
