Clean the Streets.

To the Editor Of The Evening Star:
Your correspondent, Cleanliness" I ex-
pect, hit the nail on the head in yesterdays
Star when he intimated that the street
sweeping department is neglecting it's du-
ties with respect to the work of sweeping
and cleaning our thoroughfares. Not long
ago "Old Resident cited the fact that the
contractor has been receiving at the rate
OF about $4,000 more the past year for his
work than he did the year before. That
certainly should have given us better re-
suits. Comparatively few complaints have
been entered, not because ample cause has
rot had daily existence, but from the po-
tent fact that the authorities have so per-
sistently ignored them that citizens have
become disheartened at what have seemed
futile attempts in the direction of reform
in the manner of performing the work in
trusted to this important branch Of the
District government. Instead of the bet
ter work that we should have we are with
out doubt getting the worst We ever had.
Now, to whom should the blame attach
for this state of affairs? Primarily, 1
claim, to the District Commissioners, for
they alone are responsible for the official
existence of every person fed at the pub
lie crib, over which they preside. AS I
believe "Old Resident put it, don't wholly
blame the contractor. He may be receiving
$50, 600 more than ever before, but if he is
allowed to slight his work in order to re-
cover lost ground it is only human that
he should do so. The Commissioners GER
tainly have the power to prevent the slov
erly work referred to by Cleanliness"
which is being duplicated in every section
of the city. [ remember two years ago,
when everybody was in fear and trembling
over what was believed to be the approach
ing strides of cholera, our citizens, through
the press and by private communications,
made almost daily and hourly appeals and
demands for cleaner streets. The appro-
priadon at that time was small when COM
Evening star., 1895-06-08

pared with that Of today, and work that
now passes for good was then spoken of as
disgracefully bad, yet Maj. Davis, who.
believe, was superintendent, succeeded,
with all adverse criticisms, in keeping the
whole city vastly cleaner than it is at
present with the largely increased appro-
priation. If the inspectors neglect their
duties, and l understand there is one more
now than there was then, who is RESPONSE
BILE? You say, truthfully, There is no ex-
cuse for permitting the streets to be swept
dry, &c. Who permits such work? Each
of the inspectors is provided with horse
and buggy, at public expense, to ride
around after the sweepers to that all
of the contractors work is properly done.
Only a year or two ago two inspectors
performed this duty and did it on foot. If
four can't do it now. who enjoy the luxury
of horses and buggies, leave the contractor
alone, so far as oensuring him is concern
ed. Place the blame where it properly be-
longs. But, you say, The inspectors may
have seen this fault and reported it to the
District Offices" &c. Now, of course,
everybody knows that the only proper
place for them to report is at the office Of
superintendent of street sweeping. If they
do that their duties are discharged and no
blame can attach to them. If the superin-
tendent then fails to discharge his duties
by allowing the contractor to continue his
inefficient performances" as you very
aptly term them, 1t seems to me he is the
party who, Cleanliness charges, has
apparently taken a holiday"
In conclusion, 1 don't believe there is
any good reason why the increased appro-
priation and the increased number of times
our streets are supposed to be swept over
what they have been in past years should
not produce a proportionately superior
quality of work. If correct in my conclu-
sions, then let the Commissioners see that
we get it. If wrong, let them explain
wherein l am wrong and show why the
result asked for cannot be reached

THE GRIsT OF DIsM1ssALs.

One Hundred Pension Clerks Dis.
charged, With n Months Leave.
The much-dreaded batch of yellow en-
sion clerks, was sent out yesterday. There
were one hundred in ALL The law pro-
vided for one hundred and sixty-nine dis
missals, but forty-nine clerks have been
provided for in other departments, and
nineteen vacancies occurred by death and
designations. The dismissals take effect
June 80, and the dismissees have months
leave with pay. in which to readiust them
selves to their new outlook In life.
The list was made up by Commissioner
Lochren assisted by Assistant Chief Clerk
kenniston Deputy Commissioner Murphy,
who has usually officiated in preparing
such lists, did not see this one until it was
completed by the commissioner. The selec-
tions for dismissal were made from the va
rious divisions, as follows: Western, 6;
eastern, Z; southern, 1T;- board of revision
l; record, 8; army and navy survivors, 8;

his approval Wednesday, and returned to

little vacation, which put him out Of reach
IF the entreaties of those whose names
should unhappily be found on the list.
The names of the clerks, dismissed were
not given out. A duplicate list will be sent
to the civil service commission today. There
was no political prefereace shown in the
selection of those to be dismissed Several
on the list were democrats. A few were old

by the sun and drenched by the rain, been
obliged at the end of a long days march to
erect tents, picket line and clean down
horses, and then stand regular guard
through the watches of the night.
Practical Instruction.
800 drills would not teach the men as
much about a cavalryman's work as one
night march through the still summer air.
The men, silent as DEATH riding, riding, the
long, dark hours stretching before and be-
hind, stiffness broken only by the clankin &
of a Saber, the creaking of harness, on
ward, onward till men sleep sitting bolt up
right in the saddle. Then they halt by
some stream, the dark shadows that cling
to the trees, the dismount, the quiet un-
saddling and picketing of horses, and the
weary heads laid on hard saddles for few
hours sleep under the canopy of heaven.
Five hundred parades on Pennsylvania
avenue could not furnish the practical
knowledge derived from one sharp skrmish
up some Virginia mountain side. The open
order scrambles through bushes and down
ravines, the crack of the carbine, and then
the rattle Of sabers and the inspiring charge

fire outweigh year Of gossip in stuffy ar
mories?
Troop A will return from their march bet
ter men ard better soldiers. They will have
fought battles, forded the Shenandoah
twice with horses swimming and plunging.
and will have learned the real practical
work of soldier. They will be in a posi-
tion to act as instructors in cavalry tactics,
and If the time ever came for their SER
vices would be competent to organize and

The Tea Crop in China.

Consul Child at Hankow, China, reports
to the State Department upon the condi-
tons of his district He says the indica
tions are that the tea crop will exceed that
of last year by 100000 half chests and be
of better quality. THE advance in the
value of silver will add somewhat to the
excitement that generally prevails here
during the tea season, as the native mer
chants are ever ready to avail themselves
of the advance in exchange. Most Of the
tea shipped from here goes to New York
and San Francisco, and the shipments are
steadily increasing
Mr.. Child also says: There is some un-
easness felt in the Chinese city of Hankow
at present, and last week an incipient re-
bellion was npped in the bud by the arrest
of eight malcontents, who We're prepared
to stir up strife. After strict examination

The Source of Powder Pufs.

From the Chicago Record.
Probably not many women know where
the powder puffs with which alabaster
brows and blushing cheeks are produced
come from. There is a place in Chicago
where some nimble-fingered girls are en-
gagged all the year round in making them.
The material used is the soft, fluffy down
from cygnets or young swans. and it comes
largely from the islands of the Baltic sea
end from Scandinavia. About twenty thous-
and of these birds are killed every year,
besides large numbers of elder ducks from
the northern seas. The down from one
cygnet will make about a dozen of the
average-sized puffs. The trade is very
profitable, because young birds often
plucked alive, SO that they will grow a
second tuft Of feathers, and, while one
"tuft'' costs only twenty-five cents, the
puffs are sold for seventy-five cents each
and upward. All the work that Is done is
to clean out the down and dress it up with
some dainty ribbons, and with bone or
ivory handle. The business Is not SO good
in Chicago as it once was because women
are using less powder every year.
