At present' the only iualIncatlohs neces.

before he Is assigned to one of the coveted
positions. ' After the candidate has passed
the examination ha Is to be given a di

class of help without affording organised

change will, I believe, ' be regarded with
the utmost approval "by experienced men
now In the service'. Every man will be put

Dapper Yonnsr Man's t' n wel
come Attentions. '
A dapper . young man, whose name has
not been ascertained, .alighted at the East
Orange (N. J.) station yesterday afternoon
from a train bound toward Dover.. He
held in his hand a ticket which certified
that be had paid passage from Newark
to MonistoWn. Apparently he did not
want to go to Morrtstown on that train.
He did not look happy and be soowled
darkly at the rear-end brakeman as the
train moved out of the station. The brake-
man on his part laughed heartily.
It waa all because Rufua Joseph of Sue-
casunna had "kem daown f m th' kentry
to take a look aboout taown in Newark."
He was going home yesterday afternoon
on the same train with the disgruntled one.
Rufua is broad of shoulder and thick of
arm and leg. He haa a. good Yankee jaw
and a kindly disposition. On the station
platform In Newark, Rufua saw a frail
Up of a girl, perhaps 17 years old, . bidding
her mother farewell. The girl carried, a
valise and a bunch of flowers, was very
unsophisticated and looked la If she were
going up to the country to see grandma.
' Rufus Joseph said to himself that the girl
waa entirely too young to travel alone and
vowed he would keep his eye on her. The
train rolled In and mother and daughter
bade each other a tearful farewell. The
girl got aboard. ' So did Rufus and the
dapper young man.
Rufus took a seat at the rear of the car
and the girl one about the center. The dap
per young man walked up to the seat the
girl had taken and asked her if it waa en
gaged. She replied that it waa not The
young man sat down beside her and at
once opened a rapid fire conversation. The
girl answered once or twice In evident be
wilderment and then turned and looked out
of the window. This did not worry the
masher in the least and he continued to
talk.' At Rosevllle the girl arose and said
I think I will sit on the other side of the
car." . ,
"I think It is better over there," said the
stranger; "let's go there."
Rufus Joseph had been taking It all In,
and when the girl looked helplessly around
he unhooked his six feet two inches of
majesty and awkwardness and strode down
the car. .
"You'd better go up front," said he dls
passionately io the stranger.
"A-h-h, run away little boy and don't be
so fresh," was the retort
Rufus smiled and placing a large hand
on the shoulder of the youth, said:
"You git up In ther front car right away
d n quick 1" Tha masher seemed to rise
up in air and float Into the next car.
"You set where yer are, Bis, and yer
won't be bothered no more,", said Rufua
Joseph. As far as the passenger coach was
concerned the matter ended there. But
Rufus Joseph was not through. He went
Into tha smoking car, where the stranger
had gone.
"Gentlemen." said Rufus Joseph, raising
hla voice intil. It rose above the noise of
the car, "I wish to direct your attention to
this here thing In the seat. (He emphasised
"thing.") It's a masher, If you ain't never
seen one before. He was jest drove from a
rear car for- annoying a young girl who
didn't have no one, to 'tend to her. He's
going ter stay up hure naow and be good."
Everybody looked around at the youth.
who blushed and cowed Involuntarily.
"East Orange station; next stop for this
traiawlll be Brick Church," said the brake-
man. , .1
The masher looked around, saw that no
interference would be offered and than
bolted through the door and to the station
platferm. . , ' .
I don't go taokln Ir. Uouwe," Mid

"Don't you think, you've had enough,

"Don't know," he replied.
"Don't know!"
"Nope. Can't tell yet" he said.
"But what do you think 7"
"Ain't any use thinking at all. I got to

"Well, you're the most remarkable boy X

"In half an hour."
"And how will you know 7"
"Why, that's easy," replied the wise boy.
"If I ain't sick In half an hour I'll be sorry
I didn't take more, and If I'm sick I'll be
sorry I took so much. That's the only way
to tell that I know."

In - vogue Is shown In this simple little
frock, suitable for almost any and all

In one, with three box-pleats stitched to
body length in both front and back. A
very pretty collar, which may be plainly
or elaborately trimmed, and a removable
shield, are attractive accessories. A com
mendable and charming dressy Idea Is to
make the dress of figured or solid color
and the. collar of all-over embroidery,
finishing It with many rowa of white or
daintily colored wash braid. The mode
develops well In serge, lightweight flan
