VIII Charge Fifteen Cents Per Shave
Hereafter.


At meeting Of the master BARRIERS held
last evening in the shop Of A. r. Doyle.
e4S d street northwest, It was voted to
increase the price Of a shave in the
District from 10 cents to 10 cents.
This action was taken as result
of the regulations put forth by the
District OF Columbia Commissioners for the
government Of barber shops; the BARRIERS
claiming that to conform with the amend
ments to the health order requires the adj
ditionaa expenditure of much money on
their part and that they are therefore
compelled to ask Is cents for each shave
as q reimbursement for this outlay.
The rule requires that all managers Of
barber shops register after September !,
1905, and that each owner equip his shop
with running hot and cold wafer and other
appliances necessary to cleanliness. All
tools and furniture will be kept in a clean
condition. After razprs, shears, scissors
tweexers and clippers have been used they
must be sterialized before being used again
either by immersion in a per cent aQue-
GUS solution of carbolic acid for not less
than ten minutes or in alcohol of
strength of not less than 66 per cent.
Mugs and shaving brushes will be put into
boiling water after being used. The use
of towels that have not been boiled and
laundered since last used Is prohibited. and
the BARRIERS Will cleanse their hands before
serving each customer.
A prohibition is the use of alum or other
material to stop the flow of blood unless
1t be applied in the form of liquid or
powder on clean towel, or, otherwise, In
q similar manner. The head rest on each
Darber chair may not be used unless 1t is
covered with a towel that has been washed
since having been used before or with
clean newspaper. The punishment for
violation Of any of these regulations is
fine of not more than SIS
The action taken last niphf will ba re-
ferred to the white and colored barbors'
union for action.

POSTMEN'S PAY.
Continued While Off Duty as Govern
ment Witnesses.

If letter carrier gets off to appear in
court he had better be careful to select
the government for his side" If he wants
to draw his regular pay during the time he
is off his route This in brief is the deei-
sion Controller Tracewell of the Treas
ury has reached after cogitating over a
case submitted to him by Postmaster Mer-
rift. Mr.. Merritt wrote the the controller
TO ask If Carrier c. E. Schooley, one of his
regular men, was entitled to pay while at
tending justice of the peace court as q
witness in the case of SCHNEIDER versus
Coleman. The postal regulations say that
II a carrier Is a witness for the govern
ment he shall be entitled to his pay, but
forget to make any remarks about other
styles of cases. Mr.. Merritt was also Gu
rious to know whether or not Schooley
would have been entitled to his pay had he
got off duty to testify for the defense in
the case of the United States versus Green
and Doremus.
MIR. Tracewe!l answered the letter by
turning down Schooley as far as pay Is
concerned, but left Mr., Merritt high up In
the air regarding the Green and Doremus
case. As Mr.. Merritt is about to leave the
post office of Washington. like as not for
ever. he VIII in all probability go to his
grave with the momentous question still
unanswered. Your other question" said
Mr.. Tracewen in his decision does not
appear to be involved in any payment to
be made by you, but IS hypothetical"
