you exclaim, why, OF course
not; there Is no such thing as
being too tidy. Nobody ever arrived at
such a condition"
And yet. like many virtues carried to
excess. the sense of order can be over
done to the point of becoming a vice
rather than virtue. Into most of us
,neatness is instilled from early days. We
are lectured at home and lectured at
school for giving way to slovenly habits.
Some girls. of course. seem to be born
with the instinct OF order and neatnsss,
Just as some girls live In a muddle from
the cradle TO the grave. 81
On the other hand. certain girls of my
acquaintance have learned the art of
method through much tribulation, and
probably not a few tears. There is this
to be said for the habit of neatness once

San Diego, Cal, Feb. 14.-Seven
men were badly burned, two perhaps
fatally, by the explosion OF a boiler
tube in the forward fire room of a
torpedo boat destroyer, Hopkins, at
1880 o'clock this morning.
All Of the injured are now at a hos
pital In this city. Three Of the men
were burned In an heroic effort to
rescue their screaming companions
In the fire room.
Desperate but futile attempts TO
enter the fire room before the steam
cleared WINS made. Finally, Il. Il.
Bonney, chief water tender, was held
head downward on the port side by
two sailors and was able to start the
blowers. A similar feat was per-
formed ON the starboard side by S. L..
Almon, machinists mate. II meant
death to either to breathe the steam.
A court inquiry will be held at San
Pedro this afternoon to investigate
the accident.

The report shows that there are
367,794 officers and employees in the

ject to competitive examination under

other controversies and controlling
questions" and discusses and de-
scribes them in detail. The closing
portion of the decision follows:
1t is argued that as all the entry
men were somewhat nearly connect
ed, a conspiracy may be inferred
from proof that those who are alleg-
ed to have made the above statements
proposed to others to enter into such
conspiracy. No authority is cited.
nor is any found by the Department
that conspiracy may be inferred con-
ftrary 10 written contracts. where
there is no evidence bringing home
to the parties Immediately accused
any knowledge of 1t as a fact, or
assent to 1t.
That the projectors of the irrlga-
ton project should invite their
friends Into profitable enterprise
is not unnatural, nor suggestive of
fraud. That they should invite only
their friends was necessary TO success
OF the project itself. The enterprise
would necessarily be expensive and
cost would inevitably be great; the
