WITH a VIEW TO EcoxoMY.
A Very Timely Order Issued by the
Navy Department.

The following special circular was given
out the Bureau Of Navigation today.
The department., finding that the eX-
punditUre for repairs to vessels in COM
mission, especially those on the home
stations, Is excessive, enjoins upon all per
sons having duties 10 perform in connection
herewith the exercise of strict economy
and careful compliance with the Navy
regulations relating to preservation and
repairs Of ships.
Captains Of ships reporting TO the depart
mPIt work required on the vessels under
their Command, are directed To c. refulIy
scrGtinize each item in order that no work
not actually necessary 70 be done shall
be requested and to comply implicitly with
the instructions, which prescribes that the
first and second classes Of work recon-.
nieHde1 shall embrace repairs only, and
such as are therein enumerated. AItera-
tions. 'h2Rgeg and alleged improvements in
design, whether deemed necessary or de-
siTarde only, shall be rigidly excluded from
eLureTaticn in these classes, which should
properly Include all the work to be done ON
completed vessels in commission.
Coinmandants shall give explanation aI
delay required OF captains OF ships when
SdDiitltliBH supplementary reports OI Ue-
feets needing repair.
Naval constructors and steam engineers
will exercise the utmost care in estimates
for the cost OF labor and in reducing the
actual expenses thereof which often aD-
pear to be undnIy disproportinnate to the
material on which labor is done, and much
in excess OF lie cost in private business
establishments.
The Regulations give commandants au-
thority to order repairs only in cases Of
actual emergency.
Chiefs OF bureaus are directed to have
surveys held in all cases where practical
Bile befote authorizing repairs.
To the end that eacE vessel may per
form the greatest possible amount of actual
effective service it win be the policy
of tie department to utilize ships in com
mission to their fullest extent as they
are built, equipped and commissioned, and
To hiait alterations on them while in

OF the original bronze 5 erpeat OF Delphi

1t originally consisted OF three inter-
twined serpents and their heads, which
rest together, are supported by golden
tripod, and it was this tripod which
was confiscated during the sacred war
with the Phucians, its place being sub
stituted by a tripod of inferior material
The tails of the serpent were missing
before it was set upon its present ped
estal.
The east which is stained dark greeu
