LABOR TEST BEATS 19 Ten of 39 Applicants for Jobs at Incinerator Lose Heart. FIVE ARE FOUND UNFIT Twenty Are Successful in Examina tion for Physical Strength and Endurance but Oral Work Is Vet to Be Done. Ten out of 29 men aspiring for jobs as laborers at the city incinerator took one look at the scope of a. civil service examination arranged for the appli cants yesterday, and politely bade Civil Service Secretary MacLean "good-day." The others bolstered up courage and decided to go through with it. In the vernacular of the incinerator "it was some examination. It was some thing distinctly new and novel, and un- OLD-TIMK RKSIDET OK POLK COUNTY PASSES AWAV. J. H. Collins. INDEPENDENCE, Or., Aug. 31. (Special.) J. H. Collins, an old-time resident of Polk Coun ty, died at his residence in Inde pendence, Saturday, after a short illness. Mr. Collins was born in Galli polis, Ohio, in 1841, moved to Jef ferson County, Iowa, when 14 years of age, and in 1869 mar ried Martha J. Sears, a sister of D. W. Sears, of Portland. He came to Oregon in 1874, and made his home at Independence. He leaves a widow and four sons and a sister. His sons are: James C. Collins, Independence; William E. Collins, Independ ence; David J". Collins, Seattle, and Charles Collins, Elsimore, Cal. doubtedly wift result in the incinerator having some genuine huskies when the time conies for putting on permanent civil service men in several vacancies. The test began with a strict medical examination and ended with a 10-min-utes' siege before the fiery incinerator furnaces, with plenty of strength and endurance tests mixed in between. ' Five Found Physically Unfit. Of the 29 who took the physical ex amination five were found unfit for va rious reasons-. The others went to the Multnomah Athletic Club, where ar rangements had been made for muscle tests. The first stunt was for the applicant to lie flat on his back, stretch his arms out full length over his head, pick ud a 35-pound dumbbell and raise to a sit ting position, bringing the weight up with him. He then lowered it back in the same- way. He had to do this stunt three times straight without stopping. Finishing with this, the applicant was required to "muscle" a 25-pound weight with his left arm and then with his right. Then he was required to pick up a 56-pound weight and lift It at arm's length over his head. - Staggering Heat Is One Test. In the afternoon the scene of testing was transferred to the incinerator. Each applicant was required to go. Into the furnace-rooms and "pull down the fires" for 10 minutes. The furnaces were blasted to 170 de grees, and the stoking process brought the applicants into a staggering heat Nearly all of those who had gotten this far along In the examination stood up under this strain. Twenty men were left when the test was concluded. Now each applicant has to go through an oral examination. Those who suc ceed in obtaining jobs will receive $3 a day. 502 ON NORTHERN PACIFIC Great Xorthern, Due at Flavel To day From South. Has 611. Guests.

By many the month of September is regarded as the ideal sight-seeing time at expositions.
