ARTILLERY MANEUVERs EXPECTED
Officers of that Branch Of the Service
Anxious to Have RegimentaI
Instruction.

WASHINGTON, D. c., June 26.-Ar-
tillery officers of the army are anx-
ious to have some special operations
with the field artillery, notably in regi-
emental organizations. They point out
that, as at present situated, the field
artillery does not get together for prac-
teal work under conditions which
would confront that branch of the
army in time of war; 1t is thought
necessary that the field artillery should
be assembled at posts in sufficient nu-
merical strength and with enough bat
teries under one head to form a regi-
ment This will be possible during the
summer mobilization of the regulars
and militia at two pOints-Fort Riley,
Kan, and Fort D. A. Russell, Wyo. 1t
is planned that the field artillery so
organized into regimental commands
shall be put through manoeuvers SINH
lar to those in which the field artil-
lery of the japanese are engaged. The
distinctive work of field artillery, as
compared with coast artillery, clearly
points to the eventual separation Of
both branches of the artillery corps
Most artillerists fOresee that the time
is not far distant when officers attach
ed to the field artillery must remain
there with the same permanency of
service as do cavalry officers or infant
ry officers in relation to those respective
arms. The mobility of field artillery
makes it comparable with cavalry
rather than with coast artillery The
work of the field artillery will have
special prominence at the camps Of
this summer.

Government Clerks Who Have
Passed Sixty Efficient
RULING OF THE CIVIL SERVICE BOARD
OSlER THEORY WILL NOT STAND
TEST ACCORDING TO INVEST
CATION ORDERED.
Several months ago President Roose

Several months ago President Roose-
welt instructed the civil service COM
mission to compile statistics relating
to the work Of the clerks in the gov
eminent departments in Washington,
with view of determining their fit
ness to hold such positions, and if not
to retire them at the government ex-
pense, says a Washington dispatch.
The "aged clerks" have caused some
stirring times in Washington this ses-
sion. Numerous associations have been
formed for the purpose of securing
their retirement on reaching a certain
age, which have met with considerable
opposition. The matter came to a CHI
max a few months ago when the house
committee on appropriations attached
to one of the big supply bills provis-
ion authorizing the dropping from the
rolls of clerks over 20 and reducing
y
At this juncture the president came
to the rescue of the aged clerks and
obtain from all the departments full
information as to all employees IS years
number employed in Washington, but
as to the quantity and quality of work
tering the service, length Of service,
salary, and whether veterans of wars
or civilians.
Are Highly Efficient.
The report of the commission shows
that the aged clerks of the government
are highly efficient in the discharge of
their duties. The statistics submitted
to the president show that Of 25,-
800 or more government employees in
Washington, 1926 are at least IS years
of age, of whom 127 entered the service
through the civil service examinations,
A entered through the preference to
veterans injured in the service, and SO
were appointed through competitive ex-
aminations. They further show that 70
ex-soldiers and 81 civilian employees are
engaged in work of an executive char
acter; SO veterans and SO civilians in
work; 43S veterans and 329 civilians in
clerical duties; 80 veterans and 121 civ
ilians in work of a mechanical nature;
22S veterans and 92 civilians in work of
sub-clerical character, while 16 vet
unskilled laborers.
AS to the degree of efficiency of the
work performed by these aged clerks,
the commission says that 80 of them
render poor service, PSI fair service,
229 average, 6S2 good, and 374 render
excellent service to the government
AS to the amount of work performed,

Quality Of Work.

Quality OF Work.
AS to the quantity and quality of
work performed it is found that 270
employees accomplish all the work as
signed them in an excellent manner,
222 employees do work of a good grade
and eight-tenths of the amount requir-
ed, so that it will be seen that the old
clerks are by no means useless
The commission further informs the
president that there are 94S employees
between the aes of IS and 20 who per-
form ST. per cent of the required
amount of work and draw an average
salary of s1,253 per annum, whereas
were it adjusted to the work they ac-
tually performed their average salary
would be s1,024. The employees from 20
to IS years number 435, perform 1874
per cent of their labors, receive 1920
and earn 1926, while those over rs num-
Der 21S, perform 721 per cent of their
work, draw $1,166, whereas if based
on their actual work they would receive
an average Of $S41 per year each. The
total salaries of all clerks IS years old
and over is given as $1,975,5SO.5O per
annum, whereas if it were adjusted to
the amount of work actually perform
ed the total would be $1,57O,OOO per an
mum. The average quantity of work
for all employees of the specified age
is 1915 per- cent, while for the veterans
alone the average is SO.3 per cent.
There are 579 veterans between IS and
20, 253 between 20 and rs, and 1O2 over
rs years of age.
OF the 1926 aged veterans of the
government in Washington 1,403 are
men and 223 women. The treasury de-
partment has 456 of them on it's rolls,
the interior department APT, govern
ment printing office 226, war depart
ment 211, postoffice department 80,
commerce and labor 60 and the ari-
cultural department 81. The other de-
partments have 20 and less old clerks
in their employ.
Taking up the question of salaries,
the commission found that 21S aged

Fairy Tales Being Told on The
Peasants Of COmpeighe
when THEY MET JOHN D. Rockefeller
OIL KING ACCUSED OF BEING Ex-
TER OF TIPS.

COMPIEGNE, June 26.-Fairy tales
are circulating among the peasants
around here. Their imaginations have
been fired by Achille, a garrulous cab
man, a character among his fellows,
who drives all the nobility and charges
twice as much fare as the other cab
bies
Immediately after Mr. Rockefeller's
| arrival, Achille confided to everybody
that 'Minsieur lie Millard' had
brought with him 100 great chests full
of gold and a huge safe stuffed with
banknotes and bonds These riches were
buried at night in the chateau grounds.
For their further safety Mr.. Rockefel-
fer set a guard of armed men and
fierce dogs to patrol the grounds from
sunset until sunrise. "And by his or
der, 1, myself, provided the trusty men
for the WATCH" Achille said.
SOIlle VI Tie lOWuSpcOplc DIT
Achilles stories and chaff him. Said
one to him: you drive the petroleum
king, but you never get a tip"
Had Money to Show.
81 don't, eh?" cried the indignant
Achille, drawing a handful of silver
from his pocket. Look at all this
money Monsieur Rockefeller gave me,
besides So for my cab and 81 to spend
at the fete today. He is a true king"
The chief of police tells your CORE
spondent that Mr.. Rockefeller looked
like a man relieved of a haunting fear
when, with the chief as his guide, he
inspected the Bartillon system of pho
tographs and measurements in the
town hall. He satisfied himself that
$4,000 rOgues, thieves and anarchists,
French, American, Russian and Eng
fish, are known to the police here, and
that none can breathe the air of Com
piegne, for the law fOrbids an ex-cOn-
vict to enter a palace town.

UkEARTR|NG SOME QUEER RELICS
Graders on Spokane & Inland Dig Up
Petrified Fish and Find Bed
of Charcoal.

The graders on the Spokane & In
land Electric road are said to be I'M
earthing some queer relics, reports
coming from Steptoe canyon that ami
NAL bones have been dug up at depth.
But reports of these findings are as
nothing compared to the relics said to
have been brought to light in Cabbage
fiat, where Henry Knerr and William
Spores have a contract grading on the
electric line
The other day, while blowing on the
fiat three feet below the surface, a
petrified fish was turned over by the
plowshare, and couple of days later,
while making a cut through a HILL
LAYER of charcoal was discovered fiji
teen feet below the surface, says the
Tekoa Blade.
Mr.. Knerr said that when he picked
up the charcoal it crumbled into dust;
but not SO the fish, which was heavy
and as hard as flint.
The layer of charcoal is supposed to
be the remains of a burnt tree, and
where it lay was evidently the earth's
surface in bygone days. The fish is
presumed to have been left high and
dry on the waters receding from the
