Ward of Denver toa Chicago Tribune writer, “thirty years ago was an impecunious and in- significant young fellow who loafed around the rowdy saloons of ‘Frisco, He scarcely ever drew asober breath He had no friends, he had no money and he had no clothes. He was simply an object floating around on the surface of occasions trusting toluck. One day he made a ‘stake.’ How or where he got it no one knew or knows to this day. / But he got it, and for three months after that he was seen no more around his usual haunts, One day he blew into town and related that he had discovered a vein up in Nevada limitless in the production of gold. He brought specimens of the ore, and it was good. He began at once to organize a company to work it. There was a preacher living in San Francisco who had some spare .cash and he put it into the company. Not long afterward the stock- holders discovered that Baldwin's claim did not amount to anything and the stock went down to almost nothing. Meanwhile there were men at work on the claim and one morning, sure enough, they struck a vein. A courier was sent to ‘Frisco to Baldwin with the news. Bald- win went to the bank and drew ont ali the money he had. He then went to bed and sent for all the stockholders. ‘They visited his room, ‘Gentlemen.’ said he, ‘1am on my death bed. ou gave for it.

It is understood that little, if anything, will be done in the matter of appointments before next week. All the higher officials of the de- partment have sent in their resignations, bally or in writing, to take effect on the ap- pointment of their successors, Most of themare not eager to get out of office, but they understand that they must go and they want to be as dignified and courteous about it as possible. All the employers in the classified service feel secure and are therefore ina happy frame of mind. ‘The messengers and all those below the classified service have an anticipatory feeling of the ax going throngh their necks. NO IMPORTANT APPOINTMENTS THIS WEEK. ‘There will be no important appointments in this department betore Monday and it is prob- able that but few will be made before the lat: ter part of the week. There ix a pressing necessity, however, that some of the assistant secretaries, auditors and the first controller should be appointed, so that the other matters can be got at, Another large room was added to the qu: ters of the appointment division today ai more clerks were put to work. All the work of indexing and filing the application pretty well up at the close of the day yesterday, but almost a wagon load of papers were sent over from the White House this morning. in addi- tion to the many filed directly with the Secre- tary, and the force of clerks was almost swamped, THINK MASSACHUSETTS HAS ENOUGE.

Notwithstanding the fact that it has been discovered that there has been $1,000 a year cut off the salary of each assistant there are many aftor the positions,but few only bave their applications on file inthe appoint- ment room. only applicants of record there for these places are Marcus Hanlon of New York and B.
