AN IRKsoME POLICE ORDER.
Increased Duty Imposed on the b.
cycle Force.

An experimental order respecting BIZ
cycle policemen, that is likely TO be made
permanent one, with slight modifica-
tiOns, went into effect yesterday morn
ing with provisions for its continuance to-
day and tomorrow. Heretofore bicycle
officers have had eight hours continuous
duty each day, after which they were at
liberty for sixteen hours. Under the
schedule now in effect. after serving the
eight hours. they will be allowed four
hours off. followed by eight hours of re-
serve duty at the stationhouses This
provides for sixteen hours duty every
other day.
The plan naturally meets with much
criticism on the part Of the men affected,
but with slight notifications it is likely
to be made a permanent order. 1t Is
stated that the duties of the bicycle men
are not as onerous as those of the patrol
men. The latter are required to serve
many more hours each day than do me
bicycle policemen. and the hours Of the
patrolmen ale much more broken up.
The eight hours reserve duty. II is said
by those at Headquarters, who are ac-
quainted with the matter, will in many
instances only mean sleeping at the sta
tion during that time, instead of at home,
as there is rarely any call for service
while on reserve. When an officer is
needed. however, the case is invariably
urgent.

was due to hemQrrhage following frac-

NEW BUILDING
FOR HIGH SCHOOL
Board Anxious to Erect One if
it Can Get the
Funds.

The City School Board is anxious to
erect a new, modern and an =up-to-date
building for the High School.
This matter has been talked over at
board meetings. but it has not been de-
cidcd to ask for an appropriation for
this purpose at this time.
Nor has it been determined not to ask
fer it.
The situation is just this: There are
so many Improvements needed to other
school buildings, the board appears to be
"a little timid i'll asking for really what
it thinks is needed.
Whether to patch up the present build
ing or to strike the Council for an
appropriation sufficient to erect a new
High School building is 9; question that
is under serious consideration.
The location of the High School build
ing is not altogether as convenient to
all street car lines as some of the men,
lJers OF the board think it should be.
Then there are those who think Rich
mond is large enough to have two High
Schools-one for the East End and one
for the West End.
These are serious problems that the
board is attempting TO solve.
