THE CHICAGO DAILY NEWS
ALMANAC
AND YEAR-BOOK
FOR
I
95
COMPILED BY JAMES LANGLAND, M. A.
ISSUED BY
THE CHICAGO DAILY NEWS COMPANY
[Copyright. 1904, by The Chicago Daily News Co.]
PREFACE.
The Daily News Almanac and Year Book for 1905, like the
twenty volumes preceding it, is intended to be a handy and com-
prehensive book of reference for busy people. It aims to answer
questions relating to politics, commerce, education, history, chro-
nology and many other subjects briefly and correctly; to supply
information that cannot in all cases be readily secured elsewhere,
and to supplement encyclopedias and similar publications by sum-
marizing and recording current events of importance. In seek-
ing to do this the world has been included within the scope of the
book, but the needs of the average American have been kept
steadily in view. The data to be found on the following pages
relate for the most part to the United States, but no country of
any consequence has been slighted, as will be seen by referring to
the index at the end of the volume. The usual amount of space
has been devoted to information of more particular interest to
residents of the central west, of Illinois and of Chicago.

erence of 30 per cent of the customs duties

cision In so far as It related to the pay-
ment of the costs.

UNITED STATES CIVIL SERVICE.
UNITED STATES CIVH SERVICE.
(Civil-service act approved Jan. 16, 1883.)
Officers Three commissioners are appointed
by the president to assist him in classify-
ing the government offices and positions,
formulating rules and enforcing the law.
Their office is in Washington, D. C. The
chief examiner is appointed by the commis-
sioners to secure accuracy, uniformity and
justice in the proceedings of the examining
boards. The secretary to the commission
is appointed by the president.
General Rules The fundamental rules gov-
erning appointments to government posi-
tions are found in the civil-service act it-
self. Based upon these are many other
regulations formulated by the commission
and promulgated by the president from
time to time as new contingencies arise.
The present rules were approved March
20, 1903, and went into effect April 15, 1903.
In a general way they require that there
must be free, open examinations of appli-
cants for positions in the public service;
that appointments shall be made from
those graded highest in the examinations;
that appointments to the service in Wash-
ington shall be apportioned among the
states and territories according to popula-
tion; that there shall be a period (six
months) of probation before any absolute
appointment is made; that no person In
the public service is for that reason obliged
to contribute to any political fund or is
subject to dismissal for refusing to so con-
tribute; that no person in the public serv-
ice has any right to use his official author-
ity or influence to coerce the political ac-
tion of any person. Applicants for positions
shall not be questioned as to their polit-
ical or religious beliefs and no discrimina-
tion shall be exercised against or in favor
of any applicant or employe on account of
his religion or politics. The classified civil
service shall Include all officers and em-
ployes in the executive civil service of the
United States except laborers and persons
whose appointments are subject to con-
firmation by the senate.
Examinations These are conducted by
boards of examiners chosen from among
persons in government employ and are held
twice a year in all the states and terri-
tories at convenient places. In Illinois,
for example, they are usually held at
Cairo, Chicago and Peoria. The dates are
announced through the newspapers or by
other means. They can always be learned
by applying to the commission or to the
nearest postoffice or custom house. Those
who desire to take examination are ad-
vised to write to the commission in Wash-
ington for the "Manual of Examinations,"
which is sent free to all applicants. It is
revised semiannually to Jan. 1 and July 1.
The January edition contains a schedule
of the spring examinations and the July
edition contains a schedule of the fall ex-
aminations. Full information is given as
to the methods and rules governing exam-
inations, manner of making application,
qualifications required, regulations for rat-
ing examination papers, certification for
and chances of appointment, and as far as
possible it outlines the scope of the differ-
ent subjects of general and technical ex-
aminations. These are practical in char-
acter and are designed to test the relative
capacity and fitness to discharge the duties
to be performed. It is necessary to obtain
an average percentage of 70 to be eligible
for appointment, except that applicants
entitled to preference because of honorable
discharge from the military or naval serv-
ice for disability resulting from wounds or
sickness incurred in the line of duty need
obtain but 65 per cent. The period of eligi-
bility is one year.
Qualifications of Applicants No person will
be examined who is not a citizen of tue
s; who is not within the
rescribed; who is physic
United States; who is not within the age
prescribed; who is physically
disqualified for the service which he seeks;
limitations
who has been guilty of criminal, infamous,
dishonest or disgraceful conduct; who
has been dismissed from the public serv-
ice for delinquency and misconduct or has
failed to receive absolute appointment
after probation; who is addicted to the
habitual use of intoxicating liquors to ex-
cess, or who has made a false statement
in his application. The age limitations in
the more imnortant branches of the public
service are; Postoffice, 18 to 45 years;
rural letter carriers, 17 to 55; internal rev-
enue, 21 years and over; railway mail, 18
to 35; lighthouse, 18 to 50; life saving, 18
to 45; general departmental, 20 and over.
These age limitations are subject to change
by the commission. They do not apply
to applicants of the preferred class. Ap-
plicants for the position of railway mail
clerk must be at least 5 feet 6 inches in
height, exclusive of boots or shoes, and
weigh not less than 135 pounds in ordinary
clothing and have no physical defects. Ap-
plicants for certain other positions have to
come up to similar physical requirements.
Method of Appointment Whenever a va-
cancy exists the appointing officer makes
requisition upon the civil-service commis-
sion for a certification of names to fill the
vacancy, specifying the kind of position
vacant, the sex desired and the salary.
The commission thereupon takes from the
proper register of eliglbles the names of
the three persons standing highest of the
sex called for and certifies them to the ap-
pointing officer who is required to make the
selection. He may choose any one of the
three names, returning the other two to
the register to await further certification.
The time of examination is not considered,
as the highest in average percentage on the
register must be certified first. If after a
probationary period of six months the
name of the appointee is continued on the
roll of the department in which he serves
the appointment is considered absolute.
Removals No person can be removed from
a competitive position except for such
cause as will promote the efficiency of the
public service and for reasons given in
writing. No examination of witnesses nor
any trial shall be required except in the
discretion of the officer making the re-
moval.
Salaries Entrance to the departmental serv-
ice is usually In the lowest grades, the
higher grades being generally filled by pro-
motion. The usual entrance grade is aboat
$900, but the applicant may be appointed
at $840, $760 or even $600.

WEIGHTS OF DIAMONDS
The weight of diamonds and other precious
stones is expressed in carats, grains and
quarter-grains. The grains are pearl grains,
one of which Is equal to four-fifths of a troy
grain. Four quarter-g'rains make one grain
and four grains make one carat. A carat Is
therefore equal to four-fifths of four troy
giains, or 3.2.
AND FINENESS OF GOLD.
The fineness of gold is also expressed in
carats. Pure gold is said to be twenty-four
carats fine. If it contains eiglit parts of a
baser metal or alloy it is only sixteen carats
line. The carats therefore indicate th. pro-
portion of pure gold to alloy. Most of the
gold used by jewelers is about fourteen car-
ats fine, having ten parts of alloy.

The national holidays, such as July 4,
New Year's, etc., are such by general cus-
tom and observance and not because of
congressional legislation. Congress has
passed no laws establishing holidays for the
whole country. It has made Labor day a
holiday in the District of Columbia, but
the law is of no effect elsewhere.

WEATHER FORECASTS AND SIGNALS.
The weather bureau of the United States
department of agriculture publishes daily
more than 100,000 weather bulletins, not
counting the forecasts In the newspapers.
Most of these bulletins are in the form
of postal cards printed by postmasters
from telegraphic' reports and sent by them
to outlying towns for display at suitable
points. There is also an elaborate system of
redistribution by means of telephones and
railroads from established centers, so that
there are comparatively few accessible
places which do not now receive dally
weather forecasts within a very short time
after the observers have completed their
work. The old system of conveying informa-
tion about the weather by means of flag
displays is also in general use.

When No- * is placed above No. 1, 2 or 3 it Indicates warmer; when below, colder;
when not displayed, the temperature is expected to remain about stationary. During the late
spring and early fall the cold-wave flag is also used to indicate anticipated frosts.
EXPLANATION OF STORM-WARNING FLAGS.
Northwest winds. Southwest winds. Northeast winds. Southeast winds. "Hurricane''signal
A red flag with a black center indicates that a storm of marked violence is expected. The
pennants displayed with the flags indicate the direction of the wind: Red, easterly (from
northeast to south); white, westerly (from southwest to north) The pennant above the flag
indicates that the wind is expected to blow from the northerly quadrants; below, from south-
erly quadrants.
By night a red light indicates easterly winds and a white light above a red light westerly
winds.
Two red flags, with black centers, displayed one above the other, indicate the expected
approach of tropical hurricanes, and also of those extremely severe and dangerous storms
which occasionally move across the lakes and northern Atlantic coast: Hurricane warnings
are not displayed at night.
THERMOMETERS COMPARED.
Fahrenheit to Reaumur Subtract 32, mul-
tiply by four-ninths.
There are three kinds of thermometers,
with varying scales, in general use through-
out the world the Fahrenheit, Reaumur and
Centigrade. The freezing and boiling points
on their scales compare as follows:
Thermometer. Freezing pt. Hnilintipt.
Fahrenheit 32 degrees 212 degrees
Reaumur zero 80 degrees
Centigrade zero 100 degrees
The degrees on one scale are reduced to
their equivalents on another by these formu-

Invention admits of such illustration); a
detailed description; claim or claims: sig-
nature of inventor and signatures of two
witnesses. Claims for a machine and its
product and claims for a machine and the
process in the performance of which the
machine is used must be presented in
separate applications, but claims for a proc-
ess and Its product may be presented in
the same application.
The applicant, if the inventor, must make
oath or affirmation that he believes himself
to be the first inventor or discoverer of
that which he seeks to have patented. The
oath or affirmation must also state of what

resentatives or assigns more than seven
months prior to his application. If appli-
cation has been made In any foreign coun-

NOTE The areas as given above were computed under the direction of Henry Gannett,
geographer of the United States geological survey, for the census office. In some cases the
Figures vary from those given by the general land office, but they are believed to be as nearly
correct as possible. In the case of states bordering on the great lakes the water surface of
the latter has been included in the computation of areas by the land office and excluded by
Mr. Gannett. This will account in lfln;e measure for the apparent discrepancies.

THE FLORENCE MAYBRICK CASE.
Miss Florence Elizabeth Chandler. Amer-
ican, was married to James Maybrick of
Liverpool, England, in London, July 27, 1881.
She was 18 and he more than 40. In the
spring of 1889 Mr. Maybrick became ill and
on the llth of May died. His brothers Inves-
tigated the circumstances of bis death and
had Mrs. Maybrick arrested on the charge
of poisoning him with arsenic. Her trial
began July 31 and ended Aug. 7 in a ver-
dict of guilty, owing mainly to the severe
charge of the judge, Sir James F. Stephen.
She was sentenced to death, but there was
a popular outcry against the verdict and
at the instance of Queen Victoria the sen-
tence was commuted Aug. 22 to penal
servitude for life. Continued efforts on her
behalf were made by influential Americans
and others, including the duchess of Bed-
ford, and Feb. 4, 1904, it was announced
that Mrs. Maybrk-k had been removed from
Aylesworth prison to the home of a reli-
gious sisterhood at Trtiro, England. There
she remained in seclusion until July 20,
when she was permitted to depart on
"ticket of leave.

Washington an institution which, with the
co-operation of institutions now or here-
after established, there or elsewhere, shall
in the broadest and most liberal manner
encourage investigation, research and dis-
covery show the application of knowledge
to the improvement of mankind, provide
such buildings, laboratories, books and ap-
paratus as may be needed, and afford in-
struction of an advanced character to stu-
dents properly qualified to profit thereby."
Under the original organization the en-
dowment and the conduct of the institution
were intrusted to a board of twenty-seven

PRESBYTERIAN CREED REVISED.
The general assembly of the presbyterian
church was held in Los Angeles, Cal., begin-
ning May 21. 1903. Rev. R. F. Coyle of Den-
ver, Col., was moderator. Two acts of the
assembly were of especial importance. One
was the adoption of the revised creed and
the other the passing of a resolution for-
bidding the marriage of persons divorced
upon other grounds than those recognized
by the church. Eleven articles in the con-
fession of faith were changed. Those con-
cerning election, and infant salvation now
read:
"That, concerning those who are saved in
Christ, the doctrine of God's eternal decree
is held In harmony with the doctrine of
His love to all mankind. His gift of His
Son to be the propitiation for the sins of
the whole world, and His readiness to be-
stow His saving grace on all who seek It;
that concerning those who perish the doc-
trine of God's eternal decree is held in har-
mony with the doctrine that God desires
not the death of any sinner, but has pro-
vided in Christ a salvation sufficient for
all, adapted for all and freely offered in the
fospel for all; that men are fully responsi-
le for their treatment of God r a gracious
offer; that this doctrine hinders no man
from accepting that offer, and that no man
is condemned except on the ground of his
sin.
"Also that It is not to be regarded as
teaching that any who die in infancy are
lost. We believe that all dying in infancy
are Included in the election of grace and
are regenerated and saved by Ctoriat.
through the Spirit, Who works where and
tow He pleases."
