The United States Civil Service
Commission will hold examinations at
several places in each state during
March and April, to secure young men
and wemen for the government service;
$3.50 persons secured positions last
year through these examinations.
Probably 10000 appointments will be
made this year. All appointments
are for life and for most positions only
a common school education is required.
Salaries at appointment vary from
$3.50 to $1,000 a year with liberal pro-
motions afterward. Politics is not
considered. This affords good oppor-
tunity for people between 16 and As
years of age. Those desiring places OF
this kind can get full information
about them, free, by writing to the
Columbian Correspondence College,
Washington, D. c., and asking for its

DR. HALE ON AARON BURR.

Despite amount of attention tina t is
being paid to Aaron Burr just no W,
both in fiction and biography, mystic.
ries about him still remain to be
solved. Thus DR. Edward Hale in his
"Memories of a Hundred Years" now
appearing in Tbs- Outlook, says:
began towonder, very soon in my
researches, why Burr was SO carefully
let alone by Jefferson in 1905 and 1906,
and was then pursued with such in
tense hatred in 1907. Was there not,
p erhaps, at bottom, in Mr. Jefferson's
heart, a suspicion that Burr would
be well out of the way, either If he
succeeded in establishing his princi-
pality, or if he was killed in battle, or
if he were halved and quartered by
the Spaniards
Recollect that Jefferson knew what
they had done to Nolan and his men,
and that Nolan's men were slaying in
the mines of New Mexico. With this
suspicion 1 went over the correspond
ence now at Washington as we'll as l
could, only to find that, yes or no,
whatever Mr. Jefferson knew or did
not know, he covered his own tracks
very carefully. There is nothing in
the Jefferson papers or the papers from
our Minister in Madrid-nothing at
all. You may rea d the correspond
ence and hardly know that there was
any Aaron Burr.
DR. Hale also suggests the strange
ness of the fact that, although Burr
lived many years after what is called
the Burr Plot, he never himself put
forth any statement In writing Ehlch
should at least tell what he Pretended
the true story was. II e suggest.

TRINITY CHURCH.
THE CHRISTMAS FESTIVAL.

THE CHRISTMAS FESTIVAL.
The Sunday school tree festival was
held in the Parish room on Saturday
evening, being the Feast Of Holy In
nocents, observed'in commemoration of
those little children of Bethlehem put
to death by the cruel King Herod.
The storm which had been threaten
ing during the day held off just long
enough so that the attenda nee
was very large, filling almost all the
available sittings in the spacious room.
The service was conducted by the rec
tor and consisted of the singing of
several Christmas carols, an appro-
pirate lesson and the Greed and pray
erS.
The address was upon the different
ways Of keeping Christmas; the fam
lily gatherings, the interchange of gifts,
the traditions about Santa Claus, and
the light amusements and enter
tainments. These are all right when
kept in their proper place. But the
church of God is very jealous Of the re-
ligious meaning of Christmas and will
not allow these other things to over
shadow the more essential truth about
the Holy Nativity. So when she calls
the children and their friends together
to keep this feast she provides not an
exhibition or entertainment but a
religious service, and seeks to teach
them the blessed truth about the Holy
Child Jesus. That little child laid in
the manger is God. Yes, Jesus is the
Son Of God, and as the wise men at the
first fell down and worshiped Him so
eyer since millions of Christian people
have been worshiping and still do wor-
speakable gift to us to save us from our
sins. The little children in Bethlehem
killed by Herod gloritied God in their
deaths, being the first martyrs fol
Christ. We are to glorify God in oul
lives and bear witness to, be martyrs
for Christ by notifying and killing
all vices in us. We must kill all ul'
belief, all disobedience, all impurity.
all dishonesty and all selfshness.
After the address a number of the
scholars told the Christmas story ir
verse, partly in concert and individ
ually, and ended by singing "Carol
Brothers, Carol"
Each scholar of the school received {
present and box of candy and an or
ange. The Christmas tree was beauti

When the people of Wisconsin
selected Robert M. La Toilette to
be their governor, they took it
for granted that he possessed
the necessary qualifications that
would render him capable Of ad-
ministering with prudence and
moderation, the government OF
a great state. Their surprise
was great when they found that
this man of moderation, aspired
also to be dictator of the dest1-
MES of he Republican party and
Of the men it had elected. 1t was
his dictatorial manner that first
caused all the trouble, and if he
goes down in the struggle he has
only to thank himself. He will
be regretted only by a small
knot Of discorded jobbers and
oppressors, whereas, it was in
his power to be remembered by
the great body of the people of
the state with gratitude and at
fection,-Eau Claire Leader.

The fight that is now on in the
Republican party was startedby
Gov. La Toilette after he had
been elected, and past differences
were supposed to be buried. He
began by giving cold shoulder
to everybody who had not been
with him for years, no matter
how good Republicans they
might be or how they were re-
spected in the party, Then he
drew up and had presented a
bill giving his ideas of what a
primary election ought to be,
and had it presented to the legis-
lature with the order that it
must pass without dotting an i
or crossing t. That was more
than the old line Republicans
could stand, and they insisted on
considering the measure and
amending it if they saw fit. Fl
nally they adopted a substitute,
after the governor had absolutely
refused to have his bill amended.
This substitute the governor
vetoed. Some people thought
that if he really wanted a prim-
airy election law the substitute
would have done for a start.
But he did not think SO, and in
terposed a veto, as he had a
right to do. But he had no right
to use his veto message as a We
hicle to convey a lot of abuse to
the legislature, and accuse the
members of being influenced by
unworthy motives That was
the straw that broke the camel's
back, and precipitated the pres
ent fight, which is really to de-
termine whether the governor or
the legislature is to do the legis-
lating.-Whitewate Gazette.
