TlIKltK is a vacant ohiiplaincy ill the United States army and no less than 800 preachers have applied for the job. Tiik cruel murder of Librarian "Wilson, in Philadelphia, remains as much a mystery as ever, notwith standing the almost unprecedented detective efforts that have and are still being made to discover the per petrators. All sorts of theories as to the motives that instigated the deed are prevalent. Whatever they may have been, the atrocity of the deed will stand forever. Two rewards of $1,000 each have been offered for the arrest and conviction of the murder ers. These inducements to further any more vl orous detective effort mav bring about the capture of the guilty parties, but at present there is practically no clue to them, at least none to which publicity has been given. Civil Service Reform. In the August issue of the Illus trated American, Senator Galllnger, of New Hampshire, contributes a very significant article on the weak snots in Civil Service Reform. Thero are very few prominent men who have ventured to openly declar themselves against this popular re form, and this article in question i notable as showing the line of seri ous artruments which are adduced against it, especially the manner of its enforcement under the Cleveland administration. I ' i dealing with the subject from a .artisan standpoint, the writer very truthfully says that "it is indis putable that no proof whatever has yet been forthcoming that the work of the government is either better or more economically performed now than it was in the days when honesty and capability, to bo determined by actual trial, under the supervision of honest and capable heads of bureaus and departments, were the funda mental requirements. In this connec tion I do not hesitate to put on record my individual opinion, even at the risk of being classed among the spoilsmen in public life, that instead of the service having been strength ened and bettered, it has actually boon weakened and emasculated by the idea that there shall be an in definite tenure of office, and that public officials are, sooner or later, to bocome wards and pensioners of the government, thus establishing an office-holding aristocracy, after the manner of China, India, England and certain other moiiarchial govern ments. " It is a noteworthy fact that during the last administration many thous ands of discharges were made, almost wholly for political reasons. In a single day several hundred dismissals were made in one branch of the service, and so far as could be ascertained they all belonged to one political party. One thousand three hundred and ninety-four Union soldiers were discharged, forced to re sign, or reduced in the departments at Washington from 1803 to 1807, to make room for Democrats, scarco one of whom had seen service in the Union army, while many of them hud fought In the ranks of secession. In the mint at Philadelphia, during that time, over sixty Union soldiers were dismissed, thirty-two of whom re ceived notice of dtsoharge on Mem orial Day, May 30, 1804. Almost every bureau and depart ment of the government is practi cally in the hands of the political party that whs defeated at the pollg last November, and aB a consequence high officials hesitate, and even re fuse to discuss with their subordinates matters of vital concern to tlie gov eminent, for the reason that they hold entirely different views from their ohlefs. and in many oases are planning and plotting for a viotory of the party to which they belong in 1000. Speaking of the absurdities in the civil service examinations, Senator OallinKer says they "have been such lie to greatly weaken the Jaw, and have been technical rathertlmu prac tical, but it is now promised that Jjiey shall le more practical than heretofore. It is ratlier remarkable that twelve years sliould have passed without the necessity for this having been impressed upon the minds of the commission, and that now, when they and tlie system are under fire, the discovery should lie made tliat a olmnge in desirable. Some utterly absurd requirements lmve been Hindi' In tlie matter of examination. An, an Illustration, the blank for tlie 1 trade and skilled oocupatloiift re 1 inl re, unions other tiling, that the ntitillcnnt shall hop on one font. divested of all clothing, a distance of twelve feet.

The fact de veloped here last night that live Cuban filibustering expeditions have left this city within the past few months. The last to put out, according to Informa tion furnlBhed, was on Tuesday, when not alone were provisions taken, but ammunition as well. The agents of the Cuban cauRe have worked their ex peditions so neatly that they put out under the eyes of Plnkerton detectives who are stationed here. The expedition of Tuesday, it Is reported, consisted of 12 rapid fire KUns and six dynamite nuns. There were also 50,000 cartridges. All these articles were loaded on a mud scow, nnd this boat was towed up the beach about eight miles, where n steamer was met and the transfer ef fected.

BOMBS IN CONSTANTINOPLE, Tho Turkish Cnpltnl Kxcltod Over Supposed Work of Ai-iiioiilnn. Constantinople, Aug. 19. The city Is almost In a panic over the news of bomb explosions, attempted or accom plished, yesterday afternoon at three different points. The explosions are attributed to the Armenians. At 3 o'clock a bomb was thrown just nutslde the police headquarters In the Pera district. It failed to explode. Al most at tho same moment an Arme nian, whose name It Is believed Is Gar avbet, was arrested at the Imperial Ottoman bank, In the Galata district. He was carrying a package of explo sives, which bo was trying to Ignite. A second bomb was exploded In a pri vate road between the vlzlerate (of fices of the grand vizier) and the state council house. One man was killed and several others were severely In jured. Tho explosion shattered win dows in the vlnclnlty, and did other slight damage. The police have made a number of arrests. Iteports of the outrages spread quickly through the city, and caused the greatest excitement. The police and the guards at the sultan's palace are taking extraordinary precautions, which have given color to a rumor that the bomb throwing Is part of a wide spread plot. The most abject terror prevails In the precincts of the palace. In many parts of the city, particularly In the vicinity of the police headquarters and of the state council house, all the shops were closed, and It was necessary to call out the entire police force and the military before anything like calm was restored The police arc very reticent as to the reason for summoning the palace guard nnd closing all the doors and gntewnysi but It Is rumored that a similar outrage was attempted within the paluco Hmlt3, and that the ap proaches were barred to prevent the exit of the would-be perpetrator. Thousands of people are subject to bowel troublo in somo of Its various forms. Dr. Fowler's Ext. of Wild Strawberry is an un failing remedy in all such cases. Tlio.o Scurrilous Wilson I.ottorx.

A BOMB FOR M. FAURE. Iti Imperfect Construction Doubtless Snved tho French President's Ufo. Paris, Aug. 19. The departure of President Kaure on his visit to the czar at St. Petersburg yesterday was mark ed by a scene of the greatest excite ment, accompanied by tho circulation of the wildest kind of rumors. After his departure a bomb exploded along the route tl.V president had followed, and, although no damage was done, and In spite of the fact that nobody was hurt, the most Intense excitement prevailed for. a long time afterwards, and the sensational reports had It that those who exploded the bomb had In tended an outrage of a more serious nature. The president received an ova tion from the public when he started on his Journey. M. Glrard, director of the municipal laboratory, regards the explosion as o serious attempt by a militant anarchist. The bomb, he says, was properly con structed, t re", -could have caused great dam. but that the tube was crack ed. This defect, too, prevented the ex plosion of the bomb at the time In tended by the miscreant who placed It, A man named Perlor was subsequent ly arrested on the train on which Presi dent Faure arrived from Havre. The prisoner was found to have a loaded revolver In his pocket, and is known to be a dangerous anarchist, who has already served a term of two years' Im prisonment for having In his posses sion an Infernal machine. HOW TO FIND OUT. Fill n bottle or common glass with urine and let it stand twenty-four hours; a sedl mcut or settling indicates an unhealthy condition of tho kidneys. When urine stains linen it is positive ovidenco of kidney trouble. Too frequent desire to urinate or pain In the back, Is also convincing proof that tho kidneys and bladder arc out of order.

Albany, N. Y., Aug. 10. The parents of 6-year-old Johnnie Conway, who was kidnaped on Monday last, are still mourning- the loss of their boy. Mr. Crrhway, who Is night train dis patcher of the New York Central road at West Albany, received a letter on Monday, signed by "The Captain of the Gang," declaring that unless $3,000 was left at a designated place at a cer tain hour the child would be killed. Mr. Conway, who declares he Is unable to pay the ransom demanded, on the ad vice of the authorities followed the In structions regarding the placing of the package at the time and place Indi cated lu the letter. This place was watched olosely by the detectives for several hours, but without avail. It Is probable that the abductors also kept a close watch, and knew of the de tectives' presence. A terrible change has come over the boy's mother, who Is on the verge of prostration. The strain she Is laboring under has aged her perceptibly, nnd unless Bhe receives relief through the return of the boy she Is likely to break down completely. The police of all tho neighboring cities and tbwns have received a de scription of the missing boy. Captain Davidson, of the local police, thinks the child Is secreted In the city, and that the hope of reward now being lost to the kidnapers they will surrender him today. The police do not think any harm will coine to the boy. It heals ovorythlng except a broken heart, may bo said of De Witt's Witch Ilanel Salvo.
