ALL MUST GIVE BOND
RAILWAY POSTAL CLERKS PUT
TO ADDITIONAL EXPENSE
Sweeping Order From Department
Means $4,000 Per Year to
Bonding Companies.

d. The Post Office Department has Issued
a general order directing that every rail-
way postal clerk shall give $1,000 bond
to the United States. The order calls for
good security, conditioned for the faith
full discharge of all duties and trusts i'm
posed upon them by law and the rules
and regulations of the department., ana
drawn in accordance with the form de-
scribed by the department Bonds OF
two or more clerks may be given on a
blanket or schedule form. Each clerk
shall pay the premium chargeable to
himself. Bonds will be filed with the
second assistant postmaster general
This order affects approximately Ioooo
employees embracing all railway postal
clerks except those who are assigned TO
clerical duties in which they do not have
access to registered mall
1t is believed by many who are iamiiar
with the situation that the order will cause
much dissatisfaction among the railway
postal clerks and may result In their IN
dividual appeals to their congressman to
scinded This action, If taken by the
clerks, will not be so much because OF the
cost of the bond, which will be about ~
per thousand, as for the fact that the
bonding companies require snch minutiae
in their answers to questions as would en-
barrass the applicants for bond to FURNISH
The total amount of all the bonds Which
will have to be given, IL the order Is made
effective, is in the neighhorhood of $1O.O0O.-
co., which will net the bonding companies
approximately $4,000 per annum.
Gratuities Divided.
To give this contract to any one bonding
company would bring down the wrath Of
many upon the heads of those responsible
for such discrimination, and 1t therefore Is
unlikely that such a distinction will be
made, but more likely that all Of the repu-
table companies in the United States, of
which there are some forty or fifty, will be
given share of the business. 1t is also
said in post office circles that the operation
of the order will Lave the effect of sepa-
rating from the service many good clerks
who are otherwise in good standing This
would be because of the difficulty of carry
ing out the requirements of the bonding
necessarily to the unfitness of any clerk to
hold position of trust
1t is probable that the questions will be
prepared under the direction of the Post
master General, who will see that none of
them are embarrassing to the clerks, but
that only such as are necessary to gain
knowledge of their fitness for bonding are
pPopounded. The date for the giving of
the bonds has not been set, and it is be-
lieved that 1t will not be definitely decided
until time has been given to learn if the
order is to prove strongly obnoxious The
postal clerks are the only class of employees
of the Post Office Department who handle
money and ValuableS who are not under
bond, and this fact is held up by the Off
Gals in maintaining that there should be
no exceptions in favor of any class.

FIRROUs LIFE PRESERVERS.
Prof. Wiley Says They Lose Bouyancy
When in Water.

Prof Harvey w. Wiley, chief chemist OF
the Department Of Agriculture, at the re-
ouest of the federal board in charge OF the
investigation of the Slocum disaster mas
completed the analysis and test OF the no
rous floss life preservers sent to him anu
has reported that the fbrous substance
loses its buoyancy quickly when soaked
with water. This report has been ror"aro-
ed to the Department Of Commerce and
Labor and in view of the results II Is e1-
pected Secretary Metcalf will direct that
no more of the fibrous life preserVers %
used.
A startling condition has been brought to
light through the government investigation
into the Slocum disaster. Examination Oh
life preservers in good condltlon ana con.
forming in every way to the government
requirements has been found to be entirely
inadequate. This applies not merely to
few life preServerS, but to all those USED on
big excursion steamers. In other WORDS
the Slocum board has found that the stand
ard preserver, approved by the govern
ment is incapable of giving buoyancy to
human being for any great length OF time,
and experiments indicate that 1t will not
support person or average weight 1Or any
time at all.
The members of the government special
board made various tests of life preservers
on board excursion steamers. Particular
attention was given to preServers filled with
a f1brous floss that were almost generally
in use, 1t is said, among New York excur-
sion craft. This fibrous floss preserver and
been examined and approved about year
ago by the government inspection board OF
the steamboat inspection service and 1t was
regarded as superior to the cork preserver,
both in buoyant properties and because 1t
weighed only 21a pounds, while six pounds
of cork were required to keep person
afioat. With the seal of government APP
prevail upon it, the ibrous floss preserver
was purchased in large numbers by the
steamboat people
One of the government steamboat inspec-
tors at New York, who was assisting the
Slocum board, got fi6rous floss preserver
from the Grand Republic and attaching to
1t a nineteen-pound weight threw it over
board He has certified that 1t sank i'm
mediately. The governmental standard
lightweight test Of life preserver is twen-
ty-four pounds, and the quick sinking of
the fibrous floss preserver created some
thing of sensation in the steamboat in
spection service.

BATHING BASIN INSPECTED
Effort to Secure Removal Of Vegetable
Growth From Pool.

Commissioner West. in company with DR..
William Tindall Of the bathing beach COM
mittee, late yesterday afternoon made an
inspection Of the tidal basin with the view
to devising some method by which the ac-
emulation of vegetable growth in the inner
basin at the bathing beach may be elimi-
neted. After the inspection Commissioner
West directed those in charge of the bath
Ing beach to proceed with clearing the
basin Of weeds and also to remove a GUAM
tity Of driftwood that has accumulated at
the outer end of the flume.
Commissioner West, in view of the recent
experiments in the use of sulphate of COP
per in connection with the water supply
reservoirs of other cities for the destruc-
ton of algae. has directed that an expert
ment Of that character be carried on in the
Inner basin to determine the efficiency OF
that material as an agency for the preven-
ton and destruction of the growths in ques-
ton at that place.

FINE COPIES. OF OILS
P. CLAUsEN, MINNEAPOLIS SCENE
PAINTER, DOES NOTEWORTHY
WORK FOR RED WING AUDITOR

P. Clausen, for thirty-four years a
scene painter in Minneapolis, has just
two fine prOscenium paint
ings in oil for the new Red Wing audi
torium. They are copies Of two famous
oils in the collection of T. B. Walker,
and were reproduced at the public
library in one Of the rooms of the Fine
Arts society. The two works are de-
clared masterpieces by Lowell A. Lam
oreaux, the architect who ordered the
pictures, and by other experts. The
colors and the outlines themselves are
produced with great fidelity and with
the skill which is required in charging
properly an ordinary sized oil painting
to ten by fourteen feet.
One view is by Hans Dahl, of scene
in the fjords of Norway after a storm.
The waves are still choppy and the
sky is still lowering. Back home from
their elter. places are sailing several
boats with hardy Norsemen. In tha
foreground young Scandinavian makes
bold love to a ruddy-faced faxen-haired
girl, while her companion casts a jeal-
Gus look straight ahead, ignoring the
counting youth, whom she undoubtedly
a beautif I'll Venetian scene by Ziem.
This is copied with great success.
Mr.. Clausen has worked twenty days
on the two paintings. They will be
placed in frames at either side Of the
the auditorium arch. The drop curtain
at the /, ceum theater and the famous
I" Ben Hur' scene on the curtain at
the St. Paul Metropolitan theater, and
also the large foyer paintings, are the
work of Mr.. Clausen. He has been en-
ployed some time by the Northern Pa
cifc to- paint scenes from nature, and
has finished two panoramas Of Seattle
and Tacoma for the company, the orig
mails hanging in the Boston block
