APPRENTICES AT THECENTRAL An Interesting Method Adopt ed by the Officials That Helps Many Boys. HOW THEY ARE RECEIVED, The Work They Do and the Pay They Receive While They Are Acting as Apprentices. Apprentice* to the Central railroad is •oinething new and it has been proven to ire very thoroughly effective. Tne plan has been given a fair trial and nas preven a complete success. For a boy to retain his place on the roll as apprentices in the Central shops he has to be honest, industrious, quick, and intel ligent. The shops do not long hold lag ..aids or drones. They are soon found out and their places filled with more val uabh lads. "When a boy enters the Central shops,” . ai<l Mr. Kline, “he Is given a six month’s trial. This is ample time to tell whether or not he is made of the proper stuff. If lie 1.-; found to be of the right callibre in that time he is token on as a regular ap prentice. When he is allowed to leave the ■bops as a finished workman he need not be ashamed to go in any machine shop in the country and ask for work. He is capable of doing any class of machinist’s work. Their training is thorough under our system of apprenticeship. Minors em ploy, d in tlie workshops of the Central must come under and be subject to, cer tain rules until their term of service ex pires. "If over the age of 17 when they enter the service of the company they serve the full term of four years; if under the age of 17 tl’.ey serve until they are 21 years of age. The service in each year is 130 day* of ten hours each. In case of absence 'luring the term of service they serve such ulditional time as will make up for the time lost. "It is required of each to devote his whole time during working hours faith fully to his duty. Those not observing this rule are liable to be discharged. The wages raid by the Central to each boy employed, luring his period of service, is as follows: For the first year $lB per month; for the second year, $22.50 per month; for the third year, $27 per month; for the fourth year. $31.50 per month. "We retain the right to discharge any employe for indolence, negligence, or bad conduct. This right is expressly.reserved. Upon the discharge of such an employe his contract with 'the company terminates. If the Central at any time sees proper to sus pend the whole or any part of the work in any of the shops the wages of the ap prentice is not suspended. He may be transferred to any shops of the company on any of the lines owned, operated, or controlled by it; or assigned to any other labor which the company may elect, save train service, until the shops are reopened. The time during which the work of .any ■uch shops is suspended Is not included in the term of aprewtlceshlp.” The superintendent and other officials believe that boys should do something to improve their minds when not wi the shops •nd for this reason apprentices are re tuiled to improve themselves by reading, •Ira wing, and attending night schools when practicable, and are liable to be dis charged for misconduct at, or even when absent from the workshops. "There was a time.” says Mr. Kline, "when apprentices in shops were, at the end of their time, given a suit of .clothes and a small sum of money and told to go and seek work. We do not adopt this plan, 'Hit. lay aside a certain sum yearly to be given a young man when he finishes his ippren-ticeship. Those apprentices who serve out a full term under the rules are paid upon the completion of a full term of service, in addition to the wages above stipulated, as follows: For the first whole year $24 pg For the second whole year 30 00 For 'the third whole year 36 00 bor the fourth whole year 42 00 "This will give .a boy $132 in cash when he concludes his time. But no apprentice or employe will be paid any part of the additional sum unless he has completed the full term of service provided for.” , When a boy apprentices himself to the Central he signs a contract agreeing to the rules outlined by Mr. Kline .and his pa rents or guardian also give their written issent to the apprenticeship. Mr. Kline thinks a boy can get an edu cation in the shops of the Central as good as that secured in any school of tech nology. State of Ohio, City of Toledo,—ss Lucas County. Frank J.

March 17—The patriots, with the prospects before them ot a war be tween the United States and Spain, are preparing to take an important part in the events. The bands in the Province of Havana are rapidly increasing in number. Many persons in the city are joining them, and the Cuban forces in Matanzas -and Santa Clara are moving westward. Around Guanabacoa, Caivario, Marianao and other places on the outskirts of Ha vana. the Cubans are showing renewed activity, and eagerly await an opportunity to fall on the capital itself. Inside Havana also, as scon as the firs-t shot of the American guns shall be heard, over 5,000 men will immediately join the Cuban army to invest the city. From Pinar del Rio Province. 2,000 well armed C übans are ready under General Perico' Delgado to march on Havana in addition to the more formidable attack that General Gomez will make from the West. The Spanish will have a hard time of it. The savage assault of the Cubans, even with their comparatively small resources, will be irresistible. Some towns and cities less strongly fortified will be imme diately attacked. Carlo* Rojas, a dashing Cuban commander in Matanzas Province, is ready to fall on Cardenas at any mo ment. The following placard was posted the ' other night on the O'Reilley-Street side of the palace: "Spain, your time has come.” C -ekSs’X‘O2.iXZk. ELIGIBLES FOR WAR SERVICE. | In Case of a Conflict With Spain Would You Volunteer to Go? In the event of war with a foreign pow er, the facts about the enrollment of vol unteers by Uncle Sam, become of vital im portance. AVho are eligible and who are not? tAm I eligible for military service against Bpu.n, should war be declared? s is . just now the question of questions. Tae war department »n estimating the number of men wi.o, in case ors a great war, ougat be drafted into ser.vice in a last emergency. The rough estimate of the Adjutant General's office 1* that we oan, if it needs be, rase an army of 10,726,208 males ot fighting age. Every man muatererd into service in case of war with Spam, must submit to examination by an army surgeon. The greater part of the popular mind has the mistaken idea that men in une national guard, the organized state mili tia, would be pressed into service next af ter the regular army, but such is not the case. At jhe first bugle call every mem bei of the maKtia will 'have a chance to volunteer, but until a draft is ordered no militiamen will be required to take the field against bis desire. Men who go un willingly are not wanted. They make the poorest soldiers. There will be no such arm of the service as tlie militia rn the event of the next great war with a foreign power. It would be illegal for President McKinley, com -1 mander-in-chief ot the army and navy, to ; order the malitia outside our boundaries lor the purpose of invading Spanish terri tory or any other foreign domain. No governor would be required by law to honor the president’s call for militia. To avoid possible complication, therefore, the president would act on the assumption that there is no militia in any ■of the states. The regular army proving insuffi cient. he would first call upon the gov ernor’s o>f states for a certain number of volunteers. Organized bodies of militia might volunteer in a body and offer tlhem selves already organized, every man con senting. Officers from and including the lank of colonel down would be appointed by the governors of_ states to command badies of volunteers, but for the president is reserved the appointing all general of ficers. Should you volunteer your services at the first call you may stand a chance to enter the ranks if you are between 21 and 30 years old, of good character and habits, able bodied, free from disease, not less than five feet and four inches tall and be tween 128 and 190 pounds in weight. ’lf you measure above five feet ten inches in height, or weigh above 165 pounds, you can enter the infantry or artillery, but not tlhe calvary. These are the require ments for entrance to the regular army. They would remain in force during 'the mustering of volunteers until men should be passed tin with Insufficient speed. Then the restrictions in regard to age would be made less exacting. Ln a great emergency the fighting age would be stretched from 18 to 45. The restrictions in .regard to weight would ’perhaps be changed, ibut very heavy men would not be accepted. Fat men do not make as good soldiers as thin men. Free Pills. Send your address to H. E.

Lives of Offiice Holders Made Burdensome by 1 hose Seeking Appointments. For sometime the lives of the Republi can officials have been made miserable by the appeals made to them by their unfor tunate political brethren who have failed to secure appointments. The fortunate holders of good jobs have been called on to subscribe to many poli tical funds and have- been given to under sand that it is their duty to divide their iiii oinc-s with the horde of politicians of their faith upon whom the “powers that be" have not showered their favors. One of the United Stales officials in speaking of this evil to a News reporter todpy said: “You cannot imagine the annoyance that is caused by this hungry horde* of disappointed place hunters. They seem to think 'that those who secured appoint ments are in honor bound to support them m idleness, and there is simply no limit to the demands they make. You can see for yourself there is always a crowd of them hanging about this building. This practice-is in violation of 'the civil service act and there is going to be a stop put to it. “The civil service act is commonly un derstood to relate only to retentions and promotions of men in the civil service, but the Latter part of the law has the punitory clause in full. "It. makes it criminal for any federal officer, directly or indirectly, to solicit or receive or be in any manner concerned in soliciting or receiving any assessments, subscriptions or contributions for any political purpose. “It also makes it criminal for any out sider to enter any "government building or office and ask for or receive assess ments, subscriptions or contributions for political purposes. It is also criminal far any officeholder 'to ’threaten another offi cer. or to hint to him that his job may be unsafe if he don’t shell out the cash for political purposes. Besides, it is criminal for any officeholder to hand over or pay another officer any money or valuable thing to be used for political expenses. "The punishment for committing any of these offenses Is a fine of not more than $5,000 or imprisonment for not more than three years, or both.” si-sjie z —————— * h w igiitare/ -A—-fr— every WOMEN MAD.

RECORD BROKEN AT CEMETERIES Not a Sinde Interment Has Taken Place in Rose Hill or Riverside FOB LAST EIGHTEEN OMS. Something Very Remarkable, Con sidering the Population of the Town. The funeral which takes place this af ternoon will be the first that has 'been held •in tiuher Rose Hill or Riverside cemete ries for the last eighteen days. . This breaks the record so far as tlhe cemeteries are concerned and is one of the highest tributes that could be paid to rhe health of Macon. It is a singular condition existing at a time .when there is no’ little talk going around on the outside about the esndition of the city and the smallpox situation. ■But it .is nevertheless a fact tihat not a funeral has been held for'tlhe last eigh teen days and that Sexton Roland B. Hall says that it is the most remarkable thing on record. It is indeed remarkable when one comes to think of it that put of a pop ulation of about thirty thousand people, and, in fact, a population of Ifully fifty thousand people, contributing to the two cemeteries, not a single interment has taken place. Both the cemeteries are looking very pretty just at tfhe dawn Os spring, and Sexton HaM is hard at work making a number of improvements at Rose Hill that will add to tlhe beauty of the place.

'New York, 'March 17.—1 t was not drunk enness, but starvation. Several persons noticed Christopher Weiner lying on the sidewalk at the corner of Stagg street and Busljwick evenue, Will’iamsbung, ami they though he was drunk. Some small boys of the same mind tood advantage of the opportunity to tie placards to his cloOhing and pelt him with stones and other mis siles. It was this that brought Policeman Jo seph iDollert, of the Stagg Street Sta tion, to the scene. 'He spoke to 'thia.uncon scious man, and getting no answer, re moved him to 4be station house. An am bulance surgeon was summoned, and he succeeded in restoring tlhe man to con sciousness. "For the love o*f God give me some food or a drink!” gasped the man as he open ed this eyes. Brandy was forced down his throat and in a few minutes he recovered sufficiently to say that he was slowly starving. This proved to be the case. YSPEPSIA DIDIT Weakened One Man’s Constitution Until It Brouijlit Him to Death’s Door. Mr. James S. Harrison, a well-known and highly respected citizen of Cleve land, ()., was for years a sufferer from dyspepsia and general debility, and in his weakened condition, resulting from the above causes, he had the additional ill-luck to fall a victim to malaria from this complication of disorders.
