Glass of Applicants for Clerks and Carriers Pc.
sitions Take Civil.Seryice Examination.

The semi civil-service examina-
ton for clerks and mail-carrIers for the
Indianapolis postOffice took place yester-
day, the applicants being given desk
room in the federal court, and the needed
supply of stationery blanks furnished
through the courtesy of the government.
The examiners were: Robert Taylor, presi-
dent; s. G. Woodward. secretary; John
Lane and Noble C. Butler. At no exam
ination has 50 small number of
applicants appeared. there being but FIVE
for clerkships and eleven for positions
as carriers. With one exception they were
yOung-between the ages OF twenty-one
and thirty-fve. There were no women and
no persons Of color. The names of the
plicants arc unknown TO the board. rs the
intent of the government Is that secrecy
shall be maintained in this regard until the
close of the examination. Each applicant

The questions upon the papers are also
kept from reporters and other ingniriDg
persons for the reason that the same series
may be used elsewhere. They comprise
authorizations for words and names In cur

from plain copy. capitalization aud punc-
tuatiOn, simple arit hmetlc and elementary
geography. This is for the carriers. They
are also given questions to test
their knowledge of the location Of

The public seems to have lost interest, in
great measure. in these examinations.
But one spectator came in. He took a seat,
and. after looking for some time on
the young men bending over their desks
tiptoed mis- way TO the judges platform
whereon the examiners SAT. Here IN IL
heavy whisper he began an inquiry regard
ing certain divorce proceeding in which 1t
appeared that he was the defendant. He
was politely informed that hc had got into
the wrong temple of Justice and was shown
the way TO the county courthouse.
The Young men who appeared as appli-
cants were. as q body, OF better average in
teiliQence than most of those who have
taken part i'll previous examinations, and

markings are made, will he better than

in the courtroom. These had been

pole in front of the site of the projected

John Corners Escapes.

John Corners was yesterday sentenced
to two years in the Prison North by Judge
Cox, he having been convicted of having
robbed an old soldier of his pension money.
He was turned over to Deputy Sheriff Parr
to be taken hack to Jail, but the officer
failed to handcuff him. As they were about
to turn into the Jail entrance from Alabama
street Corners made a break for liberty.
He disappeared east on Court street,
crossed to Washington at the first alley,
and then fled by way of New Jersey
street TO Pearl street. where he was lost
sight of. The officer aud others followed
with all speed, but failed to overtake the
fugitive. Postal cards giving descrip-
tion of the man were at once printed and
mailed in all directions. Corners has been
in the penitentiary before. and if not caught
will probably leave the State forever.
