1t has been decided to allow the Rus

immigration law to remain in the United
States upon the filing of bonds in the
sum OF $500 for each person that such

The President upon the recommends
ton OF the Civil Service Commission has
made important changes in the rules
governing the classified service. Under
these amendments all promotions here
after made in the classified service will
be upon strictly competitive examination
conducted under the direct authority OF
the Civil-Service Commission. Promo
| tons, like appointments, will be made
upon merit only. In examinations for
promotion much weight will be given
| office records of clerks as to punctualitv
| diligence and efficiency.
Commissioner Raum of the Pension
Bureau in an interview with a United
Press reporter emphatically denied the
| published statements that no original
pension certificates had been issued dur
ing the month of July and the eleven
working days of the present month. He
submitted figures showing what the pen
sion Office was accomplishing. The work
for the fiscal year just ended shows that
there were IA 597 more certificates is
sued than for the fiscal year ended June
80, 1888. During the past month 2,S52
original certificates were issued under
the laws, while q, 494 original certificates
were issued under the act of June 81
! 1890. The issue of original certificates
in July, 1888, was 3,444. The Commits
| siOner said "There is no understand,

Foster and myself that no more certif.
Gates shall be presented for payment un,

all the agents are provided with funds
to make daily payments of all pension
certificates entitled to payment during
the month of August. The work Of aud
iting the pension claims will go steadily

Office will issue 10000 certificates from
August l to December l, or $4,000 fol

Woodworking and Climate.

Wool is empbatically a product Of
Northern climates, as cotton is of the
tropics. There is especial adaptation Of
product to the need of the people inhab-
lting. these respective regions in this
provision OF nature for the products re-
spectIyely produced by each. 1t is i'm
possible to grow cotton in Northern To-
calltles, because the season is not long
enough. There is equal disability in
Southern localities to produce the best
quantities OF wool. This is shown by the
demand from Australia, semi-tropicaI
country, for the American Merino rams
pred by Vermont and Western New York
breeders. Years ago Australian woolgrow-
eers thought by crossing with American
Dred sheep they could make their Aocks
al that was needed to produce good wool
for time they succeeded; but of late
! years renewed demand has come for
the American-bred Merinos to imnrova
still further the native stock. which nm

CRIME AND CRIMINALS.
A Desperate Gang of Criminals Arrested
for Abduction.

The Atlanta Journal printed story to
the effect that J. O. Wynne, business
agent of the Georgia State Alliance Ex-
change, was over $40, 900 short in his
accounts.
At Griswold, Larimore county, n. d.,
William Boelter killed his daughter-in-
law, Mrs. Herman Boelter, set fire to the
house and then took his own life. Both
bodies were found in the ruins.
The body of Cora Farthing of Lewis
ton, n. Y, an unusually handsome
young woman, was found in the Niagara
river at Lewiston under such circum-
stances as to give rise to the theory of
murder.
Francois and Rosalie Schneider, living
IN the suburbs of Vienna, have been ac-
cused of decoying servants to their house
by advertisements and numbering them.
Seven bodies were found buried beneath
the house.
Jennie Anderson lives alone in Gal
weston, lex. She was startled by the
appearance of negro in her bed cham
Der. She snatched a revolver from a
bureau, and after inficting flesh wound
on herself killed the negro by shooting
ulhl through the heart.

rested on complaint Of Hermann, the
magician, who charged him with steal
ing O,OO0 from him while Treasurer of

A picnic OF colored people at Hunts
Grove, twenty miles west OF Cincinnati,
ended in bloody riot The trouble be-
gan by fight between two women about
lover. They fought each other with
razors till both were exhausted from
loss OF blood. Ida Griffin, one of the
combatants, was dangerously wounded.
The sight of blood infuriated a number
OF negroes, most of whom were drunk,
and a general battle was begun, in which
one was MORALLY wounded, one killed
and several badly wounded.
The most desperate gang of criminals
IN Detroit has been arrested, charged
with the abduction last March of Joseph
Perrlen, one of the wealthiest miIlers of
the Northwest and a highly respected
citizen of Detroit. The gang includes
Johnny Considine, Billy Considine,
Thomas Kennedy, Frank Grifiths
James Mcdowell and Edward Kent.
They have long been the terror of De-
troit, and the Considines, at least, have
criminal records in Cleveland, O.. Mar
quette, Mich, and other places besides
their native heath. Perrien, it will be
remembered, was released by the gang
after twenty-four hours captivity.

The value of ashes depends, OF course,
largely on the composition OF the burned
substance that produces them. They
may contain more or less of potash or
phosphate of lime, according to the kind
OF wood that is burned. Wood ashes
are generally valued according to the
amount of potash they contain, but
some kinds Of wood contain appreciable
amounts OF phosphate OF lime, and are
there ore more valuable Pear-tree wood
and trimmings Of grape vines are said to
contain more phosphates than woods of
other fruits, and all fruit-tree woods
have more phOsphates than woods from
forest trees. Burned bones have their
chief value in the phosphate thev CON
tain, but burned bone, unless it is dis
solved by sulphuric or carbonic acid, is
not available as plant food. Caustic pot
ash has, however, come power to make
other mineral plant food available, prob
ably by its effect in making it ferment
ana Iberating carbonic-acid gas.
Leached ashes after long exposure TO
the air absorb ammonia, and thus make
them often better fertilizer than before
their potash was leached out of them.

A Rank FiZZle .

The Fell-Wilson fight was a
rank fizzle and did not come off.
The Comstock is getting a very
odorous reputation for swindles
Of this description. Wilson refus-
ed to fight unless more money
was up, which shows that the adj
vertisment of a stake 5000 a side
was all a sham.
Those Virginia fights are sim
ply to coax money out of a guIlible
public This is not the first time
that wagon loads of Carson peo-
pie have gone to Virginia City, to
see just such affairs, and the men
who are running those snaps had
better close up the game and
quit.
Carson appears to be the only
place where, when a crowd collects
to see a fight, they see it.

Willmot was shining light OF
the typographical industry and
lifted type for the various news

came possessed of Discrimination
to wrestla with manual labor and
retired from the ranks Of the
producers.
He finally became such a strang-
er to labor that he was unable to
recognize it. Some years ago he
secured a position in a circus,
painting the zebras, but the labor
Of sorting over and classifying the
stripes was more than he could
stand and resigned because he
was not allowed the job Of packing
grub to the ant eaters.
His case will come up for con-

We Plead Guilty.

Our evening contempary charges
US with the serious offence Of
taking a holiday and suspending
publication on Arbor Day.
AS the APPEAL was the first
newspaper in the State of Nevada
to urge the establishment OF a gen
eral day for tree planting, we feel
as if we have a right to celebrate
it.
The editor OF the APPEAL has al
ways observed the day and has on
his ranch over 1000 growing fruit
and shade trees to show for his
work. We would like to inquire of
our meddlesome contempary how
many trees he has planted during
the past fifteen years or in what
other way he has helped develope
Nevada, beyond collecting all the
money he could in Cal son and salt
ing it down in town lots in Oregon.
Things have reached a delight
full pass in Carson when a man
can't put in a day planting trees
without being barked ut by a
toothless and fault finding news
parer.
