PONTIAC. Mich, Jan. 13-Mark S. Brew
er, of this city, who has been appointed
civil-service commissioner, is the son of a
Michigan pioneer, and was bred in this
State when living here meant hardship and
struggle. Until he was twenty he lived on
the family farm and at that age he went
to Rome to finish his education. Mr.. Brew
er began the study of law in 1861 with
w. L. Weber, of East Saginaw, and after
he was qualified to practice he came to this
city and entered into partnership with M.
E. Crofoot. He was state senator in 1872.
and in 1876 he was elected to Congress to
represent the Sixth district of Michigan. He
was in Congress until 1881. In June of that
year he was appointed consul general at
Berlin. In 1886 Mr.. Brewer was again
elected to Congress and ran 200 votes ahead
Of his ticket The selection of Mr. Brewer
for the civil-service commissionership is not
regarded with surprise here. He and the
President are old friends. Mr.. Brewer
stumped Ohio when President Mckinley
was running for Governor. When the Presi-
dent was in Congress he and Mr.. Brewer
had adjoining seats and were in many other
ways brought together. Mr.. Brewers abil-
ity for the duties of the place is unques-
tionable.

TO BETTER THE NAVAL SERVICE.
Bill Which Secretary Long Has In
dorsed and Asks PnssaEe.

dOrsed and Asks Passage.
WASHINGTON, Jan. 1S-Secretary Long
to-day submitted to Chairman Charles A.
Boutelle, of the House committee on naval
affairs, copy of the proposed bill to COM
bine the line and the engineer corps of
the navy and to increase the efficiency of
the naval service, which was prepared by
the special board headed by Assistant Sec
rotary Roosevelt. Secretary Long says: Il
can add nothing to the force of the report,
with the spirit and general tenor of which
and of the bin accompanying it / am in
hearty accord" Therefore he recommends
the passage of the bill with some slight
modification which he suggests. The most
important of these is a change in the sec
| tions retiring officers with the rank and
! three-fourths pay of the next grade above.
Secretary Long says: HE should be re-
| tired with the rank and three-fourthS pay
| Of the grade held by him at the time of
| his retirement, and this is especially de-
| sirable in the section providing for Volun-
| tary retirements." Another amendment is
| in the section relating to the commission
! ing of the academy boys. The secretary
! provides that they shall be called n1idShip-
! men and that they shall be commissioned
| in the lowest grades of the line and marine
! corps after taking the course at Annapolis
| ana a one-year sea course the sea course
! being an addition to the original bill. Ii is
! also an additional requirement that the
! cadets who have now completed the four
| year course shall also have a years sea
service before being commissioned. An
| other amendment limits the adjustment of
salaries of officers to those on the active
list. Another amendment is one that re-
quires that enlisted men before retiring
| after the thirty years service shall also
have reached the age of fifty years.
Secretary Long says the bill increases the
annual expense. but this we must have if
we are to have what we actually need,
naval service as efficient as any in the
world. The bill increases the number of
| officers kX OniV ninety. which number would
be required in any event by the increased
number of ships in service. AS offset,
however. the requirements provided for will
reduce the expense of the retired list. The
report of the assistant secretary shows that
in the course of a few years the bill will
really effect a saving in expense.

where Senator Hanna was met by them.
He was escorted to a carriage and rode to
the Hollenden with James II. Hoyt. The
senator was Justify cheered along the line
of march, many business houses practically
suspending business for the time being A
public handshaking reception occurred in
the lobby of the Hollenden, and the senator
was congratulated on all sides. Senator
Hanna received an enthusiastic ovation all
along the route from Columbus to Cleve-
land, and at several points made brief adj
dresses to the assembled.

very happy speech He said: This home

remarks to the General Assembly"

Hunter an Indianian by Birth.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 13-Congressman
Andrew ]. Hunter, who was yesterday
chosen the Illinois member of the Demo-
cratic congressional campaign committee,
represents the Nineteenth district of Illinois
and lives at Paris in that State. He is a
big Democrat in his home place and has
been so long accustomed to holding office
that it has become a second nature with him.
Mr.. Hunter is an Indianian by birth, but
has been living in Illinois ever since he was
a child. He started out in life as civil
engineer, but gave up that profession after
having served in 1t three years. Then he
went into law and prospered in it's prac-
tice As long ago as 1864 he was elected to
the Senate of his State. and was, several
times candidate for Congress, but was
always defeated until 1892. He was elected
to the Fifty-tifth Congress by a handsome
majority. In 1886 Mr.. Hunter was elected
judge of the Edgar County Court, and in
1890 was reelected The new member of the
congressional campaign committee is sixty
seven years old, but carries his age lightly.
He has a rare and rich fund of informa-
ton on all sorts of topics, and is a ready
man in exigencies. His accession to the
committee will probably mean the election
of Faulkner as chairman of the Democratic
congressional committee.
