Washington Police Want Shirt
Waists For the Summer.
TREES FROM THE GOVERNMENT,

Seedlings 10 he sent out After the

bution-Khski Tents 60 Replace the
white Ones Vow Used-BIg scram-
bic For Old Desks.
A strong sentiment in favor OF shirt
waists for policemen is making itself
felt on the force at Washington. The
shirt waist movement last year had its
greatest success IN Washington and
spread even TO cabinet officers and 9th.
er high officials. The police wore their
uncomfortable uniforms and said moth
ing, while the rest Of Washington was
hard and have been thinking all win
ter.
Since the beginning Of April there has
been an active crusade Tor shirt waists.
which has taken on decided boom
since a publication fell into the hands
Of some leading policemen showing the
summer costume adopted for the police
Of Camden, y. j., says the New York
Times. Shirt waists are the thing for
the Camden constabulary, according to
this publication, aud the apostles Of the
shirt waist for the Washington force
have been ardent In their propaganda
ever since they saw these enticing pic
lures.
Major Sylvester. the chief Of police.
Is opposed TO the reform on the ground
that while It may be all right for Cam
den police officer at the national cap
ital ought to have some dignity about
him. He thinks a coatless officer would
fail TO inspire the turbulent with awe.
1t remains 10 be seen whether Major
Sylvester can hold out against the shirt
waist agitation.

Hereafter the tented field" which
artists and poets have never tired of
portraying, will lose much Of its vivid
ness, but gain in military security.
The white tents have been ordered in
and will no longer be used in military
service. White tentage Is now regard
ed as obsolete for army use, and the
quartermasters have adopted n canvas
OF the shade of khaki, says the Wash
ington representative Of the Chicago
Tribune. This does not offer such n
glaring target when an enemy is in
the vicinity of camp ground, and the
occupants Of tents are better protected
from the rays Of the sun when yellow
ish hue is used in the tentage instead
Of the white. The old tents win be
turned into the quartermaster's depots,
and 1t is probable they wiz be stored
there for future emergency. In the
meantime they will be available for
use by the militia.

Must Pay for Books.
Special to the Ardmoreite.
Washington, May l1.-Comp-
troller Of the Treasury X. j Trace
well has received a letter from the
attorney general enclosing a bill
amounting to S1G2 80 for record
books ordered by marshal for Cen
tral district of the Indian Territory
and asking if the books should be
paid for from the emolument of
the clerks Office and whether the
dockets used by the Judge in the
court room should be paid out of
the appropriation for miscellane-
Gus expenses of United States
courts, when authorized by the de.
partment of justice. Three pro-
bate bench dockets were included
in the bill, and the comptroller is
OF the opinion that they are not a
charge against the earnings of the
clerks office, and should therefore
be paid out of the appropriation
for miscellaneous expenses. The
remainder Of the bill being for rec
ord books for the clerk office, the
comptroller states that it is a.
charge against the earning Of the
Office and should therefore be paid
for by the clerk.
..
Comptroller Tracewell is in re-
ceipt of a letter from Leo. f. Ben
nett, United States marshal for the
Northern district of Indian Terri
tory, with vouchers for records
and dockets purchased under the
authorization of the department of
justice upon requisition of the
United States clerk at Muskogee,
for which disbursement was au-
thorized to be made from the ap
preparation for miscellaneous ex-
penses of United States courts.
The comptroller is of the opinion
that if this expense had been in
CURED aud paid before March 3
last, no question could have arisen
as to the appropriation out of
which such expenses should have
been paid.
Under the act of March 3, 1901,
affecting clerks in the Indian Ter
ritory there is an evident intention
to make certain kinds of expense
payable out Of the funds collected
and earned by them, but as the
comptroller views the law they ap-
pertain to the duties of the clerks
personally and oilclally, as held
by him in a similar claim present
ed for payment to Marshal Grady
of the Central district. Indian Ter
ritory He also considers that any
books which are in fact used by
the Judge on the bench or in open
court as personal to him in the
transactions or proceedings in
court are properly a miscellaneous
expense of United States court,
and Marshal Bennett is thereto 9
authorized to pay for the books,
subject, however, to the approval
of the attorney general.

waist agitation.
Next spring the secretary Of agricul-
ture will distribute throughout the
country young trees as well as garden
seeds, writes the Chicago Record Her
AIDS Washington correspondent. Au-
thority for this new departure was Sc
cured az n recent session of congress.
and an appropriation was made in the
budget for the coming year.
The garden seed distribution has
been the subject Of no end Of rldicule,
and there Is no doubt that a great deal
of money is wasted I'm that way, but ii
IS nevertheless one Of the most popu-
lar features Of our paternal govern.
ncnt. and members Of congress recog-
nize its political Importance TO such an
extent that no arguments can induce
them 10 abolish or abridge IL. The
distribution of trees, however, Is Secre.
tury Wilson's own Idea.
The people Of the United States have
been cutting down The natural forests
with so much reclilessncss that It has
become necessary To start artificial
ones. Tho division of forestry of the
agricultural department has made Il
survey of the country and has ascer-
tanned the particular trees which
thrive best and are most useful iu each
locality. According to the programme
for the distribution of trees, next year
a given number of seedlings viii be
allotted 10 each member of the house
OF representatives, who will be asked
10 furnish a list Of constituents to
whom he would like TO have them sent.
The agricultural department will do
the rest. The seedlings will be grown
In the propagating houses and for
warded TO their destination with spe-
cihc Instructions as to how they should
be planted and cared for. In this way
Mr.. Wilson expects 10 start several
million new trees growing throughout
the United States every year.
