Trolley Car Jumps Track and Crashes
Into Corner Cafe.
Seattle, Sept. 25.-Of the 80 passen-
gers on big Wallingford avenue car
that was wrecked at the curve near the
main gate of the Worlds fair, shortly
before noon yesterday, not one escaped
being cut or bruised or sharply shaken,
but it is believed that none of the in
jured will die. Frank Hull. of Taco
ma, aged 46, an Oddfellow attending
the festivities accompanying the Sow
ereign Grand lodge meeting, died an
hour after being taken from the wreck.
The car got beyond control of the
motorman, attained speed of 30 miles
an hour at the corner of Fourteenth
avenue, Northeast, and East Fortieth
street, careened. left the track and
crashed into one-story building at the
southeast corner of the crossing, de-
molishing the flimsy building, splitting
and wrecking the car and hurling the
passengers forward with frightful force
Every pane of glass in the car was
broken and the jagged pieces showered
upon the passengers, who were tossed
one upon another in indescribable con-
fusion.

THE CENSUS POSITIONS.
appointment Clerk Pindel Explains
Method of Application.

appointment Clerk Pindell Explains
Method of Application.
Washington. Sept. "a. = Appoint.
ment Clerk Pindell, of the u. S. Gen.
sus bureau, states on the subject Of
the census examination, October Esd,
that the distinction between the perm
anent census force and the additional
temporary employees provided by the
Thirteenth Census act is quite import
ant and should be remembered. As
vacancies occur on the permanent CEN
sus they will be filled, as heretofore,
by transfers from elsewhere in the
service, or by selections from the ex-
isting registers OF the civil service
commission.
Persons now on the registers of the
commission are, therefore, eligible for
appointment to vacancies on the perm
anent census roll, but there is no great
er opportunity during the decennial Pc
riod for such appointments than there
has been heretofore. The additional
temporary positions, authorized by the
Thirteenth Census act, except those
above $1,000 per annum which will be
filled largely by transfers from the
permanent census roll, will be given to
those persons who pass the test exam
ination on October 23rd. Those now
on the registers of the civil service
commission, who desire appointment to
these additional census places, should
take the test examination as their pres
ent eligibility avails them nothing in
respect to appointments to these posi-
tions. The fact that a person is on
the civil service register does not pre-
vent him from taking this test exam
ination.
Blank application forms and the cir
cular of instructions were ready for
distribution by September 10th. AS
soon as the applicant completes his ap-
plication in every respect, it should be
addressed and forwarded to the u. S.
Civil Service commission, Washington,
d. c., and not to the census bureau.
Care should be taken that the enve-
lope containing the application is prop
erly addressed and sufficient postage
stamps are affixed. If the application
is satisfactory card will be mailed the
applicant and it will admit him to the
examination. An application must be
filed in sufficient time to arrange for
the examination at the place selected.
No request will be granted for an ex-
animation otherwise than as scheduled
for the cities and states on October
23rd.

TAFT STARTS WATER.
Opens Gates to Famous Gunnison
Tunnel in Colorado.

Tunnel in Colorado.
Montrose, Colo, Sept. 24.-Presi-
dent Taft spent yesterday on the west.
ern slope of the Rocky mountains amid
succession of magnificent scenes. In
many respects his day was one of the
most interesting he has had since leav.
ing Boston.
Late in the afternoon Mr.. Taft stood
on the brink of the deepest irrigation
ditch in the West and far out in the
foo hill of the mountains, with not a
settlement in sight, made the cleo
trical connection that started flow of
water through the Gunnison tunnel
that will reclaim lao, 900 acres of arid
land. The greatest irrigation project
the United States government ever has
undertaken was thus put in operation
and the opening was the occasionl of
joyous celebration throughout the
valley of the Uncompahgre.
During his travels yesterday the
President had ample opportunity to
study the effect of irrigation. For a
long time his train ran through stretch
es of country where as far as the eye
could reach the only vegetation in
sight consisted of few greasewood
bushes or sagebrush. Then out of a
rocky canyon the train would suddenly
come upon veritable oasis, where
fields of alfalfa and miles of orchards
told of the miracle wrought by the
touch of water.
The tunnel has been hewn through
six miles of mountain range and
when the project is completed next
