Clerk and Carrier Examination, De
oember 10, 1900.

The United States Civil Service
Commission announces that on De-
cember IS, 1900, an examination will
be held in this city for the positions
of clerk and carrier in the post-ofiice
service. An examination was recently
held which failed to result in a suffi-
cient number of eligibles to meet the
! needs of the service; consequently it
is necessary to hold another examina-
ton
All persons who have been examin-
ed for the position of clerk or carrier
within the past year and failed to pass
may be reexamined upon filing new
applications in due time.
This examination offers an excel.
ent opportunity for entering the Fed
eral service to bright, energetic young
persons who are not afraid of hard
work, and the Commission hopes that
sufficient number of intelligent. ac-
tive persons will present themselves
for this examination. 1t may be stat
ed that there is a wider field for ad-
vancement upon merit IN the Federal
service than in many private employ
ments, not only by promotion in the
same Office, but by transfer to other
parts of the service.
The nature of the examination is a
test of practical, general intelligence,
and of adaptability in post-offlce work.
The age limitations for this examina-
ton are as follows:
Clerk, not less than IS years.
Carrier, between 2I and 40 years.
Applicants for carrier must be at
least S #. 4 in. in height, and weigh
not less than Ia5 pounds Female APP
plicants are not required to have this
certificate executed.
This examination is open to all
citizens of the United States who may
desire to enter the service, and who
comply with the requirements. All
such persons are invited to auply, but
attention is invited to the fact that
from those certified the Department
usually selects for appointment eligi-
bles who are residents of the district
in which the vacancies exist. Appli-
cants will be examined, graded, and
certified with entire impartiality and
wholly without regard to any consid-
Grafton save their ability as shown by
the grade attained in the examination.
For application blank (Form IoD,
full instructions, specimen examina-
tion questions, and information relative
to the duties and salaries of the differ
ent positions, application should be
made to the undersigned.
Applications must be on file with
the secretary of the local board before
the hour of closing business on De-
cember 7, 1900.

An Exceptional Man.

The Rev. William Rederick is GER
tainly an exceptional man. He looks
after the spiritual welfare of a Method
ist congregation in Binghamton, N.
Y. The charge is desirable one,
and the environment most pleasant.
But the divine had desire to become
thoroughly familiar with the life of a
tramp, and the only way to get it he
thought was to get out and circulate
among them. So with motives of a
purely religious nature he became a
tramp. Travelling with gang Of
hoboes, his only possession few
ragged clothes and pocket full Of
tracts, he with the rest of the outfit
was gathered in by the Cortland
police. On being arranged before the
authorities the minister explained that
he had donned ragged garments and
without cent he had started out to
beat his way to Chicago to study
tramp life. He talked so convincing
ly that he was given his freedom, and
on leaving presented the Judge with
tract as a souvenir of his visit. He is
now much admired hero, and de-
servingly so. There are no doubt
many engaged in similar calling who
would and do study the various exist
ing conditions of life, but few indeed
who would make such personal sacri-
flee to obtain such knowledge.
