UNDER CIVIL SERVICE RULES.


Washington, July 80. The announce
ment of President Roosevelt of month
ago that he would try the experiment
of appointing deputy collectors of inter
nal revenue through the medium OF the
Civil Service Commission on competitive
examination, took form today when the
commission issued an announcement
that examinations would be held at
Asheville, Statesville, Salisbury, Char
lotte and Winston, N. c., August %,
for clerk and Office deputies, store
keeper-guagers and division deputy col
lectors. 1t is the first time in the his
tory of the Civil Service Commission
that "raiding deputies" must secure
ther appointment under civil service
rules.
The President reached his determine
tion in this respect at the time of the
recent change in collectors for the
Western District of North Carolina,
and it Is stated that if the plan proves
successful the civil service rules will be
applied to all other internal revenue
districts.

ELIsIsLES FOR INSPECTORS.
Hurry Work Of Civil Service Commission
In Conducting Examinations.

Washington, July 90.-The facility
with which the Civil Service Commits
sion furnished inspectors to the Depart
ment of Agriculture in the execution of
the meat inspection law is shown in a
statement issued today by the commits
sion. Although the law was not enacted
until June 80, the commission in exactly
three weeks from that date conducted
examinations throughout the country.
Arrangements were made to examine
1886 applicants. During the week end
ing July %, 2,24O sets of papers were
received, and out of which number forty
were certified Tor appointment. By the
end of the present week it is expected
that the remaining papers will be exam
ined and rated and some FIVE hundred
eligibles certified for appointment as in
spectors.

BUSTON & SONS
DISPOSE OF STORE
The Purchasers Are Well Known Citi-
EenS Of Town And County.

The people about town were surprised
Tuesday afternoon to hear that Buston
& Sons had sold their splendid grocery
business. Upon investigating the report
was found to be true. The purchasers
are Messrs. ]. D. HARRISON, j.. d.
Barns, w. A. Barns and W. L. Moore,
and the business will be conducted
under the firm name of HARRISON,
Barns & Company.
About twenty years ago Buston q
Sons began business at Tazewell on a
small scale. But by wonderful energy
and aptitude they had succeeded in con-
structing an enterprise that was not
only a credit to the town, but that was
wonder to all intelligent visitors to
Tazewell. 1t was a marvel to most
persons that such a business could be
established and made a success in a
town with as small population as Taze-
we'll shows.
1t is fortunate that the gentlemen
who have purchased the business have
the training and ample means to take
up the business where Buston & Sons
have left it, and carry it on to a point
of increased Importance and success.
The only reason for the sale was that
Mr.. ]. G. Buston, the most active mem
Der of the firm, was in such health that
he felt that it was best to retire from
mercantile pursuits and devote his
time to agriculture and rural life.
The price paid the Messrs. Buston
was $4,000 for building, machinery,
fixtures and stock. 1t is the most COM
pletely equipped grocery business in the
State and perhaps in the South.

ROYAL PAIR MAY VISIT AMERICA
Possibility That King Edward and Queen
Alexandra Will Come to United States.

London, July 90. There is possibil-
ity that King Edward and Queen Alex
andra may visit the United States un-
officially, of course, some time next
year. 1t is one Of the dearest wishes OF
both to see some of the modern wonders
of America. They have practically seen
the rest of the world. The visit to the
United States, if made, would come
after their visit to Canada next year,
and that visit is almost certainty.
The Canadian Parliament's official In
vitation has been followed up by per-
sonal requests made by some Of the
great men both Of Canada and England.
They will travel in the United States as
the Earl and Countess of Chester, with
small suite.
If the visit is made the United States
Secret Service, as well as the European
police, who will accompany the King,
will watch and guard him and the Queen
at every moment in as quiet a manner
as possible. President Roosevelt will
entertain the royal pair at the White
House.

We are anxious to have every Repub-

mony with the Republican National
Congressional Committee in favor of
the election of Republican Congress.
The Congressional campaign must be
based on the administrative and legisla-
tive record of the party, and, that be-
ing so, Theodore RooseveIt's personal
ity must be a central figure and his
achievements central thought in the
campaign.
We desire to maintain the work of
this campaign with popular subscrip-
tions of One Dollar each from Republi-
cans. To each subscriber we will send
the Republican Campaign Text Book
and all documents issued by the Com
mittee.
Help us achieve great victory.

TERRIBLE WRECK
ON N. Y. CENTRAL
Three Dead and Thirty Injured When
Express Plunged Into Landslide
Lost Conductor Found.

Poughkeepsie, N. Y, July 30. Three
were killed and thirty injured, of whom
fifteen are seriously hurt, is the revised
estimate of casualties in a wreck on
the Pacific express last night on the
New York Central, eleven miles below
this city at Chelsa. The list of fatali-
ties may be increased, however.
Engineer Edward Wells died at the
hospital and Conductor Charles Mcln-
tyre, who was missing and who it was
feared was thrown into the river and
drowned turned up this morning. Fire
man Mills was killed outright and the
head trainman, known as Harlem
jack" also lost his life.
A landslide caused the wreck. The
engine and baggage car went into the
river, after turning completely over.
The smoker and two day coaches left
the track, but the Pullman remained on
it.
The sudden stop Threw Che paSseh-
gers against the seats and windows, IN
juring many whose names are not
known. The seriously injured were re-
moved to Mattewan hospital.
The express train was going swiftly
when the engine plunged into the mass
Of earth and stone.
The locomotive turned turtle and
rolled over into the river. The heavy
trucks of the baggage car and first
coach sank into the. pile of earth and
brought the remainder of the train to a
sudden stop.
The wrecked train was made up of
four Pullman cars, six day coaches, one
baggage car, one mail car, and one
combination baggage and mail car.

IRON AND STEEL STRONG.
All the Indications Point to a Continuance
of Prosperity.

Pittsburg, August 1..-Considerable
additional strength was developed in
the iron and steel market during the
past week, with prevailing activity
that is most unusual for this season.
Steel men declare that the business
done last month will exceed that of any
July in the history of the iron and steel
industry in this country, being even
greater than that of July, 1905.
All.fnished lines have been in excel
lent demand and inquiry, while Besse-
mer iron remains exceptionally scarce,
with little available for delivery for the
remainder of the year. This scarcity
of iron is expected to prolong the era
of prosperity, and it is pointed out that
when more Bessemer iron is being pro-
duced than ever before shortage of
this metal indicates clearly the large
volume of business being handled.
Assurances of good crops throughout
the country and the fact that the money
market is becoming easier is taken by
the steel men to indicate that the -four
ishing condition prevailing in the iron
and steel trade will be carried far into
next year.
Another pleasing prospect is the fact
that all the available yard room on the
lakes has been reserved for shipbuild-
ing, indicating that shipbuilders are
preparing for a heavy winter and
spring. 1t is reported that the United
States Steel Corporation has ordered
FIVE new ships for immediate use.

Washington, July SO.-Justice Gould,
of the Supreme Court, today issued a
temporary injunction against Leslie M.
Shaw, Secretary of the Treasury, to
keep him from paying to John F. Green
and William T. Gaynor, the proceeds of
S25, 900 worth of United States bonds,
which were presented for payment
through Henry Clews & Co., of New
York, some time ago. The bonds are
two years overdue, and are said to have
been purchased with funds embezzled
in the Carter Greene -Gaynor transac-
tions.

Son of Millionaire Washes Pots and Pans

Chicago, ILL.,, July 30. Philip Van
zant, son of George Vanzant, president
of the Prairie State Bank, has turned
scullion in the kitchen of a club at Lake
Geneva. Young Mr.. Vanzant is theo-
logical student in the University of Chi
cago, and his ambition is the ministry.
He is filled with high ideals, and is an
earnest believer in the "uplift." He
has taken the course of washing pots
and pans, carrying coal and mopping up
grease so that he can study the charac-
ter of the people whom he proposes to
reach when he begins his ''uplift" cru
sade.
One of his most cherished ideals about
the greater democracy and the equality
of man was smashed the first Sunday
he was there, and he has not been able
to find all the pieces yet.
