MILLER WANTS JOB
Alderman Out for Position Left Vacant by Clerk Bas-
 sett's Death.

Alderman J. Edmund Miller, repre- sentive also of that body on the board of finance, is an avowed candidate for the position of clerk in the director of public works office made vacant by the death of the late Newcomb Bas- sett. The civil service board has de- cided that it will not give new exam nation for the position as there is already an eligible list for city hall clerks containing eight names from which the director must make his se- lection. Mir Miller declares that he has re-certified and is on the list. He has had considerable bookkeeping eX- perience.
 The position pays a salary of s1.500, which cannot be altered except by ac- tion of the board of finance. It is probable that with present con- ditions all the candidates who are eli gible will be out for this plum. Mir. Miller says he will make a good fight for the job, anyway.
 MT. Foley, when asked yesterday when he was going to make his ap- pointment indicated that he was in no hurry. He declared that the work of the department was up to date and there was no pressing need for filling i the position.

Archdeacon Stuck of Alaska lectured last night in Lampson Lyceum on the subject Five Thousand Miles Through Alaska on Snow Shoes. The lecture was illustrated with stereoptican views many of which Mir. Stuck had taken himself.
 Beside the interesting travel lecture, Dr. Stuck has certain dry humor which Is very pleasing to his audi ences. Last night he told of finding a sunken barge along the shore of Alaska on which some up-to-date whiskey dealer had advertised Drink Yellowstone Whiskey." One of his companions who was also in the min istry. wrote after the legend on the wreck 'I did"
 Of his trip across Alaska Dr. Stuck spoke especially of the faithfulness ol the dogs that drag the baggage loads He said that these dogs often times will not allow a man 10 ride in the wagon, but make him walk along be- l side the train. II was for this req i son that when Dr. Stuck crossed Alas ka three years ago, he had to go or snow shoes, while the train of sever or eight dogs only dragged the bag gage.
 He spoke of the hospital and librar, work among the people of Alaska anC 1 said that the magazines sent from tn Unietd States to the library at Fair banks, Alaska had been sent all oVe the barren country. He promised tn Yale students. if they were looking fe fertile fields for missionary work, tfer was no better place than hospital tr' other kinds of work among the reopl of Alaska.

 pcat Lecture at Copenhagen.

Copenhagen, March SO.-Dr. Henry Mitchell MacCracken, chancellor of New York university, who is here to deliver a course of lectures at the university, made his first address this afternoon and was strikingly success ful. The biggest lecture hall of the university was not large enough to contain half of Dr MacCracken' s would-be hearers and consequently rather than disappoint so many stud ents, pr. MacCracken promised to re- peat his lecture tomorrow The lecture was on American ideals. and he was frequently applauded. He concluded with a reference to the presidential election of this year, declaring that no candidate had the ghost of chance of election who failed to prove that he had both the will and capacity to en- force the laws upon which the econo- mic bases of the country depended.
