NAVAL CADET
APPOINTMENTS.
Competitive Examiatiotj for Two
, N&yal Cadets from thisjstate.
Senator Tillman has asked the publication
of the following announcement
of interest tp young men of South Caro>
lina:
The oScent navAl appropriation bill
authorized the appointment of two midshipment
at large for each State; to be
selected by its two senators.
The navy department, by arrangm?ut
with the civil service commission, will
have examined young men, fleafjrnated
by Senators, on the 11th of August at
either Greenville, Columbia, or Charleston.
This saves the expeues of travel
to Annapolis for the entrance examination
heretofore held there.
The examination papers are prepared
by the academic board at Am ap >lis, so
V. . -there will be no examination on entrance
T* to the academy except a physical one.
In order to make sure that there shall
be no vacancy, each Senator is authorise
to designate six young me, one as principal
and the others as first, second, third,
fourth and fifth alternates If the
principal fails the others take this place
by sucoession, in their orders. In order
to afford aii opportunity for the best
I talent in our State to win the prize, I
have decided to have a competitive
examination held in the State House at
Columbia on Monday, July 28, beginning
9 o'clock a.m., to select a principal
and five alternates. Those selected will
'pppeat before the examiners of the civil
. service commissioners on the 11th of
August, after having been nominated
by me to the navy department No one
Win be permitted to enter the examination
who is not physically sound, as it
would onlv cause a waste of time No
student who has been expelled from
college and none but bona tide white
resident of the State need apply.
.- AH applicants for examination will
report piomplty.to the board of exam
iners to be appionted hereafter, houi
and place designated. The board wil
prepare the examination papers and
hftnH Mmm nut tint. Aav
The scope of the examination is ai
follows: Reading, writing, spelling
arithmetic, ge >graphy, English-gramme
U.S. history, woild's history, aigebrt
through quadratic equations, aud plair
geometry (five books of Chaavenet'
Geometry, or an equivalent.)
The age limits are from 15 to 2

in the hands of the examiners I select,

manliness. Mental ability is not the
I only test to be applied
The names of the six highest comi
petitors will be sent by me to the navy
department immediately after the ex- '
aminatfon, not later than the first of
August, and the department will issue
1 permits to appear before the examiners
; of the civil service commission on the
llth of August, at one of the three cities
herein before specefied. All the papers
will be forwarded to Annapolis by the 1
civil service commission examiners and
the hiphest successful competitor will i
receive the appointment to enter the
i naval academy at the beginning of the
next seesion. In the event the midshipmau
thus appointed fails on physical
examination or at the first annual examination,
I will give the place to the
next highest compititor ou the list.

Why tlic Bride Feared Her Ilanband

"It was pretty hard to have tlio lion- I

married two hours," complaircd a new- j
ly married man. "Fact is, thmg > 11m
excitement of the wedding du.\ ,.>t?l;

"We were married at noon and. .il'.er i
dodging the customary rico v.: i old i
shoes, left for the station. Wc had!
barely time to catch our train, and 1
rushed up to the ticket window at
once. Then, once more, wq had to run
the gauntlet of friends, who think it
smart to throw rice down oue's collar
and have it sift down iuto one's shoes.
"We got into tlie trnin at last, and
when it started I heaved a s'gh of relief.
When the collector came round
for tickets, I handed mine over. After
looking at it for a moment he asked
uic if the lady was traveling with me.
"That was the last straw, and I
snapped out for him to mind his own
business.
" 'That Is what I nm trying to do,'
he answered coolly. 'One more ticket,
please.'
"Then it flashed upon me that in the !
hurry and excitement of the moment I :
had forgotten I had a wife. I paid tho
other fare and tried to laugh it off, but
the look that my wife gave mo will
linger with me as long as 1 live. It
took me two hours to argue her out of
the impression that I didn't love her
any more, and she isn't fully satisfied
yet."?Kansas City Independent.
The Ilnblt* of tlie Robin.
Let us hide behind that clump of
blackberry bushes and watch the parent
birds as they come to feed their
young. There comes tho father robin
now. You can distinguish him from
tho mother by his darker plumage.
You will notice that in coming with
the vfood he alights on a particular
twig, hops along a particular branch
and alights on a particular side of the
nest If you watched him for a week,
you wouiu prouauiy boo mm approach a
the nost in precisely the same way
each time. Now here comes the mother,
a lighter colored bird, with gray
on the back of her head. You see that
she reaches the nest by quite a different
route and alights upon the other
side of it, and she will do this over and
over and over again. Like men and
women, birds acquire habits which
they rigidly adhere to unless something
happens to prevent them.?Ernest Har
