A Butterfly Expert.

From the Boston Herald.
In New York the politicians at city
hall have found a new way to get around
the civil service laws. The heads OF de-
partments apply to the commissioners
for civil service employees In a certain
grade, for which no examinations have
ever been held. Then. when examina-
tons are held, they have their candidate
all primed to answer the questions and
prove himself an expert" In this par
ticular line. The last request OF this
kind was for a bee culture foreman for
the five sets of bee hives in each of three
PARKS Bees in public park might be or
doubtful value. we should think; at least
from the point Of view of the general
public, and particularly for those VINO
are not sting proof. Possibly the next
move will be a copying of the London
idea of raising butterflies for the parks.
In that case a new position might be
created for faithful tribesman as buts
terhy expert.
