Light House Keepers Not to bs Re-
moved for Political Reasons.
WASHINGTON, March 15.-Secretary Car
Isle to-day made the first announcement Of
the policy that may 10 large measure
govern his action in the matter Of appoints
ments in the light house and life saving
service. The announcement was made iu
connection with two applications for posi-
tions In the light house service. The secre--
tarY writes "In reply beg leave Co in
form you that the positions for which Greer
and Burger apply are not vacant and no
cause for the removal of the preseut in>
cumbents Is known. The great number of
light house keepers employed and
their isolated situations prevents any-
thing like constant overseeing Of
their work and faithful performance
OF their responsible duties, involving safety
to vast amount Of property aud the num-
Der OF lives intrusted to their care depends
upon the good character and competency Of
the keepers themselves. 1t has been, and
is, the policy of the department and Of the
light house establishment, to encourage and
Insure high standard among them by re-
tanning them in service during competency
and good behavior, and by promoting aud
transferring them TO better stations as re-
words for good service. Lightkeepers are
held to strict performances of their duty
but unless some incompetenoy or neglect on
Vhelr part Is shown, they are not disturbed
IN their tenure Of office. IL has been a uni-
form custom for many years TO regard the
light house establishment as a non par tisan
service. II is my intention 20 continue that
custom. No lightkeeper will be disturbed
bv me in his official position merely because
OF his political opinions

France and the Vatican Clash over the
Appointment.
ROME, March 15.-Serious friction is
threatened between the vatican and France
in regard to the appointment of primate
IN Africa to succeed the late Cardinal Law
iRerie. The pope demands that France
shall provide the primate with fixed all
lowanoe for the maintenance. and TO this
the French government objects The pope,
therefore, holds that II the primate
Is to look to the church
for support the church should not submit
TO dictation or Interference as to the ap-
pointment, and the pope has intimated that
he may nominate an Italian free officer.
Such an event would cause serious results
as France would decidedly object to having
an Italian primate over Catholics. a large
majority of whom are either French or SUBJ
iects of France.

in Wood county many years ago when
there were only a few people in what is
now known as the town of Sigel. They
worked hard until their latter days were

that it requires a great many logs to
keep that mill running. At present
they have logs piled up 20 feet high SO

We were informed that they had 3O7,.
220 feet of white oaks logs and IS, 900
lineal feet of birch on hand now and
more logs coming every day. Business
is brisk and running as well as can be
expected with scarcity of water
The city of Centralia will either have
to provide water works OF some
other means of supplying these insti-
tutions with sufficient water to run their
engines or else they may be obliged to
make some change. This water pro-
blem is quite serious question.

YELLOWSTONE PARK SHAKEN.
Great Changes Made There by a
Series Of Earthquake Shocks.

ST. PAUL, Mimi, Feb. 1S.-A special
from Bozeman, Mont, says: Dr. Chas
ID. Plummer of this city has just re-
turned from the Yellowstone National
Park, where he went to look over the
stock of the Park Transportation COM
pany. The doctor reports that series
of earthquakes have been felt in the
park during the last few weeks, one of
which was the most terrific since the
discovery of the park. The main roads
south of Norris Geyser basin caved in
for long distance and to an unknown
depth. In one place there remains
huge gap in the earth about seventy
five feet wide and probably several
hundred feet in length. Marks left by
the recent earthquake are plainly visi-
bic in a number of places. Large chan
deller lamps in the hotel at Norris
Basin were knocked down and two
persons in the building at the time were
very much frightened. The course of
the road at the basin will have to be
materially changed as the damage is so
extensive that it can never be rebuilt.
1t is reported that at the time of the
principal quake the vibration of the
earth could be felt for several minutes.
Parts Of the park further away have
not been heard from on account of the
SHOWS. Above the mammoth hot
springs there is solid bank of snow
seven or more feet deep. DR.. Plummer
reports that the mammoth excelsior
geyser, which has not sent forth its
immense stream of water for many
years, is very active and that its great
crater has filled with water. There are
always changes in the condition of the
springs every winter, but this season
the changes have been greater than for
years, possibly on account of the recent
uuakes.

SHIPPING ICE.

Mr.. Edward Ketchum has been filling
orders for ice for outside parties. The
past week Capt. L. E. Ames, Of the
Marshfield Light Guards, was in the
city and placed his order for two car
loads of ice. Parties from the towns OF
Rudolph, Saratoga and Grand Rapids
have been hauling ice from this place
to their ice houses for summer use.
This product is very valuable to the
farmers and they put in stock of it
every winter.
