Clerk-Carrier Examinations.
MAY 2. 1908,

The United States Civil Service
Commission announces that on May 2,
1908, an examination will be held for
the positions of clerk and carrier in
the Post-Ofice Service in this city.
This examination offers an excellent
opportunity for entering the federal
service to bright, energetic young per-
sons who are not afraid of hard work,

failed to result in sufficient number
of eigibles, the Commission urges all
persons who are qualified, and who may
desire to enter the Post. Office Service,
to apply for and take this examination.
1t may be stated that there is a wider
held for advancement upon merit in
the Federal service than in MANY
private employmepts. While the salary
in the Post.Office is usually about
$500 or 5000 per annum at the start,
this amount compares favorably with
the compensation of beginner in
private employment.
This examination will be held in
order to give ali persons who desire TO
apply an opportunity to be examined
for positions IN this Office. It is in
tended hereafter, in case no e1igibles
result from the clerk-carrier examina-
tions, to fill vacancies in this office by
selections from any register of the
Civil Service Commission which may
have been esta b1ished as the result of
a first or second grade examination,
selections being made of persons
who are residents of this city or
this part of the state, and not more
than one clerk-carrier examination
will be held during each year unless
eligibles can not be secured from the
other register. This notice is given in
order that the persons who may desire
to becomes eligible for positions in this
office may file their applications and

test of practical, general intelligence
and of adaptability in post-office work.

defeated by large scores.
The game with Milwaukee was
played on Saturday evening on the

Kenosha team simply walked away

the three games and winning the
match by a score of 2681 to 2517. The

Under a decision of the Supreme
Court, handed down, the Schlitz Brew
ing company, Of Milwaukee, must take
out local license in Superior at $500
per year if it continues business
through its warehouse there. The
company has a warehouse at Superior
to which beer is shipped in barrels,
kegs and bottles and delivered to Gus
toners in various parts of the city, in
filling orders taken by an agent, with
out taking out local license, and a
preliminary injunction was secured to
enjoin the city from prosecuting, but
this injunction was dissolved by the
trial court, and the Supreme Court sus-

reaching in its effect, the Schlitz and
other breweries having similar agencies
in other parts of the State.

Chicago and Inland Lakes Railway
Company Promise to Parallel
North Western to Milwaukee.
THREE RAIL SYSTEM PROPOSED
1t is Now Stated That the Company Has
Entire Line I'm the Next Two Years.

A new trunk line railroad competing
with the Chicago and Northwestern,
the Chicago, Milwaukee and st. Paul,
and Wisconsin Central, between Chi
cago and Milwaukee, passing through
Waukegan, Zion City, Benosha and
Racine, will be in operation inside of
two years. providing present plans of
the Standard Oil people carry, and
there now seems to be little doubt that
they will.
The Chicago, Milwaukee and Inland
Lakes Traction company is the name
of the new company, which since it's
incorporation some months ago has
conducted its plans IN a very quiet
manner and which up to the present
time has not been known to the
public.
The plans of the promoters leaked
out when several of the head men
visited Waukegan on Thursday last,
and with promoters of the Waukegan
Western railroad went to Zion City,
where they had a pleasant conference
with John Alexander Dowie.
The man who is representing the
eastern capitalists and who admits
that the money men are the Standard
Oil people, is Mr.. Whitcomb, the man
who managed all of the Yerkes rail
road projects and who was Mr.. Yerkes'
head man up to the time he left Chi
cago.
Mr.. Whitcomb expressed confidence
that the new trunk line would be built.
He said that the company had a
right of way out of Chicago to the
Cook county line along Milwaukee
avenue.
The franchise provides that the line
must be operating between Waukegan
and Chicago inside of two years, and
Mr.. Whitcomb says that there is no
doubt that it will be. The new project
is of special interest as it will intro
duce new system into this part of the
country, that of the three wire plan,
electricity to be the exclusive motor
power.
will be like regular trunk line, and
they promise that the cars and the en-
tire equipment will excel any system
now operating out of Chicago.
The plan is to'bui1d west from Niles
to point'about two miles west of the
Northwestern and then continue north
to Waukegan,ss passing through there
near Jackson street. They are already
securing right of way in Lake county
and seek routes100 feet wide.
In no casegwill they pass over land
which theyscannot purchase.
This company is now planning to
build line from Chicago to Lake &C.
neva and GAINESVILLE, and then to Mil
waukee, but the lie up through Wau-
kegan and Kenosha will be the main
one.
The company's representatives say
that they are to ask nothing from any
body, that they have capital enough to
build at once 500 miles of tracks.
The high speed at which the cars
will be run is to be the feature of the
new project. The line will be fitted
out with the latest improved machin-
cry and the company expects to run it's
trains btween Kenosha and Chicago in
40 minutes, the fare to be so cents for
the so miles.
The plan is to have the passenger
trains enter the heart of Chicago over
the Union loop, the freight and ex-
press to take another route.
