higher pay to the more deserving clerks.
With the single exception of the CHER
clerk" says Gen. Humphrey. the highest
employees there are only eleven clerks re-
cetvfng $500. and only nine receiving
$1,000. 1t can readily be seen what little
opportunity for promotion nye energetic
serves good compensation. and the best
service Is to be expected from clerks who
can look forward to receiving reward in
the way of promotion. While the force Is
not large enough to prevent the volume OF
work from sometimes falling behind. find
that there are employees in this office who
often voluntarily remain at work after Of
nee hours.
TT has come to my attention that a num-
Der of clerks seek and many secure trans
fers to other departments after they have
been here a sufficient length OF time to be-
come proficient In the work OF and valu-
able employees In this office. Having IN
mind the best interests OF the department,
! had decided to disapprove ar !. nc ions
for transfers, but In every case 1t mas peen
shown that the ernploye desiring tho trahs-
fer had received assurance OF promotion IN
the department to which transfer was oe
sired, and on the principle that 1t woulo
not be just to stand in the way or tne
clerks advancement, the chances OF which
are so poor here, the transfers nave gen
erally been approved. There are, or course
in this as in every office clerks whose seIN
ices deserve no better pay than they are
receiving; but there are many enploSe 90

Father Mcclure. Father Carry and Father
Matthews. all of this city
The candidates formed In procession at
PAS o'clock In the afternoon in the base
ment of the church and marched into the
main auditorium by twos. Ats o'clock the
cardinal. preceded by eight altar boys
and the five priests walked from the
priests house to the church. After a very
short service the candidates proceeded to
the altar again in twos and were formally
confirmed In the church, the sign of the
cross being made on their foreheads with
holy water and the buffet. symbolizing the
"a 1t that Christians must receive the buff
fets of the world with patience, both cere-
monies being performed by the cardinal
In his sermon Cardinal Gibbons declared
that all men are not equal. Some must be
captains and some in the ranks. He So id:
Our democratic government gives us The
Idea that all men are equal; it is a leveling
process. But this idea isno a good one
for If there is anything striking in our life
equality, not equality. God has not made
us equal. Some of US must be captains,
some subordinates and you must learn this
lesson, respect these VINO are above you
There is not enough respect from the child
to the parent today, not enough respect
from the laborer to the employer This
is one great fault with us. and I impress
1t on you that you must pay respect where
respect is due"
The cardinal also occupied the pulpit at
st. Peters in the morning During the
course of his sermon at that service he
said:
There are three great temples of God.
The first Is the great dome of nature, Lit
by the stars at night and the sun by day,
with the blue sky for its roof and the
green turf for its carpe.ing. The second
temple is mans work. such as King Sol
omon's house of worship or this beautiful
church.
But the greatest of all is the temple of
the soul. for when that of nature has crum-
bled away the soul shall be alive forever.
Nay brethen, listen to the voice of God
and your conscience speaking in the templs
OF your souls, for that makes it perfec'

Where, in the calm, deep solitude
The amber sunehine fiods it's way,
The checkered light aud shadows play !!
such beauty everywhere We turn,
The moss-gr0wn rock and dropping

The woodland f,wers and trailing

The singing brooks aud signing pines,
The murmur of the gentle breeze
That stirs the yellow chestnut leaves,
fiH softly in the grasses brown
The round and pfickly burrs drop
down.
The naples are III bright array
OF notified gold ard crimson gay;
The oak in deepest scarlet dressed,
In cloth Of gold are all the rest,
Except that now and then bstween
There stands tall, da K evergreen
That ehads its spicy fragrance round
And drops its cones upon the ground
With asters white and purple tluged,
And golden-rod, the words are fringed
With scarlet berries peep,ng through
Where wild grapes hang Of purple hue,
And fiery-6ngered ivy clings.
While m,lk-weed fl pats on do~ny

The crickets chirp and insects hum,
For glorious autumn now has come.

Another Distinguished Tar Heel.

Charlotte Chronicle.
Everybody has been struck by the
large number Of native Tar Heels who
leave North Carolina and make names
.or themselves IN other States. They
are to be found in every State and Ter
rltory, and nearly every town aud city
Of any. importance IN the United
States, aud come of them have gone to
foreign lands and achieved fame and
success. 1t seems that almost every.
body who has done anything OF impor-
lance either went from North CaroIin"
Or descended from North Carolina
stock. A gentleman who is compiling
a list of famous North Carolinisns In
other States says he had added to the
roll the name of one Of the must pro-
gresslvs young business men On the
Pacific slope in the person Of Mr.. Sam
uel Hill, of Seattle. Wash. Mr.. Hill
left North Carolina when quite Young
and was educated at Harvard College.
Afterwards he married y daughter OF
the preaidept of the Great Northern
railroad and became an expert in trans
portation business, through extensive
service on the Great Northern. Mr..
Hill was employed by the French gov
ernment to make an exhaustive report
OF the Trans-Siberian railroad, being
the first American to traveree that
great line. He has travelled much In
the Orient.
