of good luck after another ever
since the day he was sworn in as
secretary of the navy. He was
worried for a week after his APP

could not find home with enough
open space for his four boys to romp
in. Senator Newlands helped him
out by leasing him Single Oak an
estate of ten acres on the edge of
the city.
The contract for Single Oak pro-
vided that Mr.. Daniels should have
the use of Old Mool, a black-and
white COW, and six hens and keep
Tabby, Drindle cat. The lease was
signed and the Danielses moved in.
Since then the COW has produced a
calf the cat five kittens and the
hens a brood of sixteen chicks, be-
sides thirty-seven eggs.

CIVIL SERVICE RULE
FAVORED BY CITIES

WASHINGTON, April 12.-It is
found by the census bureau that two
years ago there were II cities of more
than 10000 population in the United
States that required a civil service
examination for places in practically
all their municipal departments, and
this class included four cities in New
Jersey-Newark, Jersey CITY, Pater-
son and Trenton. OF 80 cities requir-
ing such examination for some, but
not all of the departments, New Jer-
sey had none while of the rs cities
of over 10000 population that had no
civil service system there were nine
in New Jersey-Camden, Elizabeth,
Hoboken, Passaic, Bayonne Atlantic
City, West Hoboken, Perth Amboy
and Orange.
Taking into consideration the much
larger number of positions in the
larger than in the smaller cities 1t
becomes apparent that a very large
proportion of all appointments of city
employees in the United States are
subject to civil service examination.
The number of employees in the
CITY of New York at the close of the
year 1911 was 52.929, and all were APP
pointed under rules and regulations
of the municipal civil service COM
mission, with the exception of 1853
who belong to the exempt class. OF
the total 29,2O4 were appointed as the
result of competitive examination,
7,478 belonged to the labor class,
52S1 to the non-competitive class and
2s2 were unelassified
In Chicago the total number of city
employees at the close of the year
1912 was 22,207 OF this number $3.50
were classed as departmental en-
ployees, 1857 as skilled laborers, 1884
as laborers. these three classes being
subject to civil service rules. and 1856
as exempt OF this latter number
1874 were employed under the Board
of Education, the great majority of
whom were teachers and subject to
examination by authorities other than
the Civil Service Commission.
