NAVY YARD APPRENTICES.
Changes In the System Made by Act
ing Secretary Allen.

Acting Secretary Allen has issued an Or
der making important changes in the navy
yard apprentice system. Heretofore there
has been no rule for the appointment and
education of the apprentices. Now COM
mandants at navy yards are instructed to
receive applications from likely candidates,
hold examinations and make up lists of
eligibles from which appointments will be
made. The examination will not be severe,
except physically, the requirements being
the ability to read and write and knowledge
of arithmetic up to decimals. Candidates
must be between the ages of fifteen and
seventeen years. Once appointed, the boys
will be thoroughly instructed in their
trades and examined from time to time for
promotion. 1t is hoped in this manner to

CURIOUS CUCKOOS.

The cuckoo is generally known only
as bird with a very monotonous note:
o continuous cry Of "cuckoo, cuckooo
over and over again. Among naturalists.
however, the cuckoo is known as a bird
that never builds a nest for itself. but
takes advantage of one already built by
some more industrious bird.
There is good deal of the cuckoo
about these advertisers who, instead Of
making a success of their own, seek to
profit by the success which some one
else has made with much effort and
labor. 1t Is so with those limitations Of
DIR. Pierce's methods, by which free
medical advice is offered, although those
who make the offer are without qualified
medical ability or experience And the
cry raised in SOME cases of woman,
woman, woman write to woman" makes
the resemblance to the cuckoo even
stronger.
There is as far as known no qualified
woman physician connected with any
proprietary medicine establishment, and
none therefore competent to give nedi-
cal advice. 1t is certain that there Is no
one, man or woman, who can offer free
medical advice backed by such knowl-
edge and experience as is possessed by

A dispatch from Rennes last night says:
Dreyfus has borne the terrible shock with
marvellous fortitude, one might almost say
with unnatural calm. Yesterday he seemed
stupefled when Maitre Labori communicate

rallied. He passed quiet night, and he
rose when his orderly brought him water
at 8 o'clock this morning, just as he did
during the trial. when 1t was necessary.
Today he has spoken but little, though
he has seemed in better spirits than might
have been anticipated. The meeting with
his wife was naturally very affecting, but
both held up as we'll as possible. He said
to her:
Il am not uneasy regarding myself as I
shall soon be free. but 1 think Of you and
my poor children. They Will he branded
