Remarkable Tapestry

Among the exhibits at the Paris salons
is a most original piece of tapestry, de-
tended as a decorative wall hanging; the
ground is merely of natural colored can
vas, the design worked out in plain ordi-
nary strong twine, yet the effect is very
striKing, says Woman's Life. A conven-
tional tree with outlined roots, leaves
and fruits in pale shades on bluff
ground is the design, but clever touches
of gold and silver over the tapestry give
relief The whole effect seen at dis
tance is wonderfully good, and the idea
clever to q degree.

UNElRTHING OFFICIAL CORRUPTION.
Extravaganza in Postofices or
Graft, According to the Way it
is Considered.

Washington, April e.-Since the
news of the investigation in the Post
Office Department has been spread
abroad, letters have been coming IN
from numerous postmasters. With
assurances that there is tobe an uncov-
ering of lax transactions and wreng-do-
| ing, the postmasters are hastenlng to
make known their individual expert
ences in dealing with. the officials un-
der Investigation.
Many of these letters tell how the
postmasters have been overwhelmed
with Office equipments, ordered for
them from Washington. Cash registers,
time clocks, book typewriters, ordinary
typewriters, and other like articles
have been foisted upon Offices, when
they had no need of them, or when
they were already adequately supplied:
information that the Offices did not
need such things ayailed nothing. Inc
matter was placed before the postmas.
tiers in such way that they could not
we'll avoid making the purchases.
Furthermore, it was regarded by the
postmasters as suspicious that one
particular make of these articles was
urged upon them.
Three or four years ago officials IN
the department began fitting postothces
ont in this fashion, and the work has
apparently been going on up to the
present time. It is claimed that exces-
sive prices were paid, and that some
body must have made handsome pro-
fits, for there are thousands of Offices
which could be imposed upon in such
a way.
The letters from postmasters also in
dicate methods in establishing and
maintaining free delivery. These letters
are quite as emphatic in their tone as
are the letters regarding equipment OF
postoffces.
Tie force of inspection at the Post
Office Department are proceeding
vigorously with their work, but no
details of what is being accomplished
can be ascertained at the department..
Postmaster General Payne is not ez-
pected home for about week. After
his arrival the accused superintendents
and the confidential clerks associated
with them will make a determined
effort to stay the investigation or
change its course, which however,
will to all appearances be, Ineffective,
because Mr.. Payne's orders now have
the sanction of President Roosevelt,
who has enforced Mr.. Payne's orders
bylorders Of his own.
