WASHINGTON, March 2.-The President
to-day. in transmitting the Congress re-
port of the Civil Service Commission,
says; "The cause of the civil service
reform, which in great degree is in
trusted to the Commission, l regard as
so firmly established, and its value 20
fully demonstrated, that should deem
it more gratifying than useful, if, at
this late day, in session of Congress,
l was permitted to enlarge upon
its importance and present condition
A perusal of the report herewith submit
ted will give further information as to the
progress which has been made during
the year to which it relates. In the ex-
tension OF the operations of this reform,
and in the improvement Of its methods
and rules, it is cause for congratulation
that the watchfulness and care and
fidelity to it's purposes are all that are
necessary to insure to the government
and our people all the benefits which it's

JACKSONVILLE, Fla, March News
has just reached here of bloody affair
among Seminole Indians in the Ever
glades. Jim, young Buck, went crazy,
and with Winchester rifle, started on
the war-path through the camp and set
tlement. He first sent bullet through
the brain of Waukee Micco, chief
of the Miamis, killing him instantly.
He next killed Old Tiger. Young Tiger
the son of Old Tiger, sprang upon the
maniac, and hand-to-hand struggle for
the possession Of the rife followed.

then killed the two papooses of his sister
and attacked bucks, squaws and children

Am Indicative Dief,

PEsTH, March 2.-In the debate on the
Army bill in the Lower House of the
Hungarian Diet, Czaky, replying to Kiss,
who had accused the Government of
pursuing the Germanizing national
policy, and declared that the decree
compelling the study of the German
language had no connection with the
Army bill. Every one who has glanced
at Europe must admit that the army's
readiness to take the field is of more i'm
portance for Hungarian culture than for
the safety of the State.

nerce act was then taken lp. Audef-
son, of Iowa, opposed the adoption Of the
report. In the course of his remarks,
denouneing the railway management, he
referred to White, OF New York, as a
Wall-street representative of the law
breaking highwaymen of the country.
Grosvenor, OF Ohio, charged that the
country had received no benefit from the
interstate commerce law. The confer
ence report was agreed to.
Dunn. of Arkansas, presented con-
ference report of the bill for the protee-
ton Of the salmon fisheries in Alaska,
and it WAS agreed to.
The Conference agrees, in q slightly
modified form, to the House amend
ment, directing the President to cause
one or more United States vessels to
cruise in Alaska waters, and seize all
vessels found to be violating the law rel
atiye 10 the seal fisheries.
A Joint resolution was passed, appoint
ing w. II. Markham. of California, man.

was agreed to.
Tbs next point of disagreement was t.
the Senate amendment appropriating {
wears salary to the late Chief Justice
Waite. Grosvenor moved that the House
| recede from its disagreement. Randall
and Cannon, of Illinois. opposed th'
Senate amendment because it estab
lished dangerous precedent, and woult
lead to like payments of unearned none,
to the widows of all justices and judges
Grosvenor replied that the committe,
appropriations had established the prin
ciple when it paid the uuearned salary
OF the late doorkeeper, Wintersmith. t

White, of New York, said that tn
American people was the most niggardl
on the face of the globe. If Waite ha,
presided in England he would have ha
salary of e10,000. BY refusing to re
tire when he could, he would have save,
the nation $21 600. The Committee mis-
took the good sense and the good hear
of the people.

another year the modus vlvendi, and
advocating closer trade relations with

Thus we find the exports OF the Santa
Ana valley, from these three stations OF
the Southern Pacific Railroad Company
to have been, during the year 1888, 49,.
096,655 pounds This is not SO very bad
for an "off' year-a period of depression
"a "busted" boom period. What the
California Central shipped out of our val
ley, and the quantity Of products which
were forwarded by steamers from New
port we have been unable to ascertain.
At rough estimate, and not wishing to
exaggerate in the least, we think it may
safely be said that by these two lines of
transportation five million pounds of our
products were shipped. We submit that
when, from a portion of the Santa Ana
Valley, over eighteen million pounds OF
products are shipped, during such year
of depression. it is sufficient proof that
we are abundantly able to take care OF
ourselves. Verbum Sap.-[Santa Ana

Nothing beyond what was given in yes
terday's HERALD was, however, revealed,
Mr., Ashburner continuing quite mute as

he will miss Mr.. Ashburner, who intends

But we fear that in this age there is a
tendency to "plate sin with gold," or
rather to screen vice with gauze rather
than extirpate it with, wholesome train
ing that reaches the soul. If Comstock
continues to develop in his peculiar mis-
sion, he will become so fastidious that
our rising artists will be compelled to
paint ugly bugs instead of beautiful
busts, and carve capons instead OF
Aspasias. But in the latter case the
capons will belong to the table of some
coarse oil or railway king who conde-
scends to give the starving genius a
"square meal" at his sumptuous board.

SokE people are 80 fastidiously nice
and prudish that they will fight with art
merely because it holds the "mirror up
to nature" OF this school is Anthony
Comstock, the censor mortm of New
York. His efforts to prevent the expos
ure and circulation of obscene literature
are, of course, commendable from all
points, and every decent man and wo-
man in the country is at his back on that
proposition. But it now setgis that his
zeal is of that kind of progressive
character that he finds a moral
taint even in recognized works
of art, and insists that nude
statuary cannot be exposed with
out injury to the moral temperament OF
the public. He recently ordered statue
of Hermes at charitable fair in New
York to be either clad in modest raiment
or shut out from the public eye. The
friends of art and the artists object to this
ukase of the great optical reformer.
They, very naturally, claim that to en-
velop their Apollos and Mercuries in
pantaloons would be to outrage all the
traditions of art, and resolve the profes-
sion of the sculptor into the trade OF the
common haberdasher. There is great
deal of this kind of prudery abroad. A
fanatic of this extreme sect, few
years ago, mutilated every male
statue in the Crystal Palace
and did what he could to destroy the
voluptuous charms of the Venuses anc
| Ariadnes on exhibition there. The
picture of the German peasant woman
pulling her husband away from finely
chiseled female efigy in an art gallery
paid homage to bucolic modesty; but i
was, at the same time, high compli
ment to the initiative talents of th'
sculptor. 1t was reserved for an ode
genius of Los Angeles county, who acci
dentally fell upon riches and filled hi
gardens with statues, to hit upon tn,
idea Of improving them with colors
But he surpassed himself when he or
dered his fence-dauber to paint an india
rubber coat upon a little Cupid, from
the top of whose head a column of waite
spirited and fell in sprays over his shoul
ders. "You see," said he, "nobod.
would stand in that place without al
UNI mbrella or an overcoat." His reason
ing was homely, but his idea of art wa
only educated up to the Constockial
standard. 1t is Milton who says that be

The intelligence of the beaver is

deliberately spring it with a stick; but
if it is so artfully covered with snow or
leaves that he steps On it unwar1ly, he
will twist round and round till the limb
is severed. 1t is only under water that
steel trap will hold a beaver, and then
because he browns before he can twist

Pure Altar of Roses.

The rose gardens of Ghazepore,
town of British India, are fields in
which small rose bushes are planted in
rows. In the morning they are red
with blossoms, but before midday
these are all gathered and their leaves
distilled in clay stills. with twice their
weight in water. The water which
comes over is placed in open vessels,
covered with a moist muslin cloth, te
keep out the dust and flies, and ex.
posed all night to the cool air. In the
morning a thin film of Oil has collected
on the top, which is swept off with a
feather. and carefully transferred to a
small phial. This is repeated night
after night, till nearly the whole of the
oil is separated from the water.
Twenty thousand roses are required to
yield a rupee-weight Cess than half
an ounce) of oil, which sells for fifty
dollars. Pure altar of roses is seldom
met with. That which is sold in this
country is diluted with sandal-wcod
oil, or with sweet salad oils. House
