THOMAS
DENIED
ARRIVING TODAY WAS
BRUISED BY A SCHOONER IN
FRISCO.

Transport Thomas has a dent four
feet in diameter in her starboard coun-
ter and other damage as the result of
a colliding blow struck her at the Fol-
som street wharf, San Francisco, the
day before she left for this port, the
blow being delivered by the steam
lumber schooner Brunswick
One of the steel stern plates in the
starboard side was cracked and two
others badly bent; one of the troop
ships bathroom was wrecked and sew
eral of the steel beams supporting the
sides were twisted, but as the damage
is ten feet above waterline it was not
considered necessary to hold the trans
port at San Francisco as it was urgent
the coming of the Fifth Cavalry squad
ron here be not delayed.
The Thomas will have ner injury
repaired on returning to the Coast
from Manila. The bow of the Bruins
wick was smashed by the collision.
The Brunswicks excuse was that
she was carried by the tide into the
Thomas.

in the benefit Saturday night at the
Opera House that will add touch OF
liveliness to the evenings entertain

Washington, d. c.
When the candidate after consulting
the above manual, decides which
branch of the service he desires to- try
for he should fiji out the official ap-
plication form under instructions by
the local examiner; he will then be
examined on the first date available
for that class Of service, and if sue
cessful will be in line for appointment
as vacancies occur. The percentage
attained in the examination controls
largely the order of appointment

ing whatever toward securing these
appointments for anyone until after he
has successfully passed the civil SER
vice examination
Considering the cost of living in
Washington, it must be apparent that
these positions for the most part af-
ford very little inducement for men
of energy and ability. Their great
est attraction is for young men and
women who desire to come to Wash
ington to pursue special courses Of
study here while filing these govern
ment positions; any such plan re-
quires great energy and persistence but
is possible for those who possess these
qualities and have sound health.
Very truly yours,

NO OPPOSITION
To QUARAN TINE

The matter of landing the horses of
the Fifth Cavalry from the Virginian
yesterday was conducted without the
least friction of any kind between the
Territorial officials and the army au-
thorities. DR.. Norgaard, the Terri
torial Veterinarian, consulted with the
quartermasters department and was
told that any restrictions which were
placed on the landing of the horses
would be regarded as not only for the
good of the Territory but that of the
army, and arrangements were very
quickly made by which the inspection
of the animals proceeded without de-
lay.
OF the SIX hundred and odd animals
but fourteen were held for quarantine,
this being simply done as a precau-
tionary measure in individual cases
and being done without the slightest
protest from the army officers In
charge.
