street Cleaning Drivers Salts Ned -Bensel
Braces Up superintendent.


Street Cleaning Commissioner Bensel
issued yesterday a general order abolishing
the system OF fines in the department which
has prevailed from Col. Warnings time.
D%elinquents will in future be punished by
discharge or suspension, but the extreme
penalty will not be imposed until after a
hearing has been given to the laborer
against whom charges or complaints are
made.
DIR. Bensel also sent out an order to the
superintendent in which, after laying down
new rules and regulations. he said that he
would hold them personally responsible for
the proper cleaning of their districts and
for everything that happens up TO the time
the scows cast of. The result, he thinks, will
be that they will hold the foremen up to the
work and that the foremen in their turn
will zee that the gangs do not shirk.
81 am going to have the streets cleaned
said DR.. Bensel, and if they are not the
superintendents will hav to do the explain
ing and not the men"
A committee of the drivers of the DEPART
ment called on the Mayor yesterday and
laid their grievances before him.. Tn Mayor
refused to listen to any suggestion of shorter
hours or higher wages, but he told the
committee that the filming system would be
done away with and that no driver would
be discharged without a hearing. At the
close Of the conference the committee ex-
pressed themselves as satisfied. Thew said
that the doing AVA with the fines would
really mean an increase OF pay, because
under the old system a man rarely got his
wa yes intact.

MILITARISM RESPONSIBLE.
Among Women Attributed to This Reason.

''Women will wear high-heel shoes until they choke. Men will continue to wear that style of shoe, but not to the extreme as practiced by the women" said a dealer recently relates the Detroit Free Press. High heel shoes have taken hold of the Amer ican shoe wearers in great style and will continue to be the rage for years.
 Il believe that the high-heel shoe will never see its end. All future styles will be made with this as one of the features. They are harmful in a way, but men are not breaking down as are women who wear stilts. The men are more conservative in the height of the heel, but some little shoes with heels as high as allowable, and the women will go him one better. The low, fiat heel shoe is the best of any for health. but you cannot sell shoe of this style at present The high-heel rage is extending even to the old men,
 The whole cause of it may be laid to the sweep Of militarism which passed over this country a few years ago Clothing had to be made to con- form with soldierly ideas, and shoes must necessarily follow in the next period. We may say that the high heel shoe is the only part of our wear ing apparel called for by public opin- ion which will remain in the style for years to come'

SWISS SCHOOL HOLIDAYS.
When Thermometer Goes Above Ger tain Mark the Children
 Are Let Out.

"The heat holiday" said a school teacher, according to the Philadelphia Bulletin, lis a Swiss novelty that we ought to introduce here It is not right for us to treat our school chil- dren in the matter of weather as we do
 ''The Swiss have a maximum tenn perature for school. When the ther- mometer goes above that maximum there is no school. whether the month be April, May or September The chil- dren in the insufferable heat, are free to bathe in tinkling brooks, to picnic in cool groves or to boat in windswept lakes.
 'The Swiss recognize that we can impose no greater suffering on little children than to confine them for long hours at stretch in an intolerably hot schoolroom. They kn6w that children cannot. under such conditions, learn thing. Hence the school direc- tors are wise enough, by making these heat holidays, to save the teachers and the children much misery and much wasted time."

ZANZIBAR'S GLOVE FORESTS
Where Spicy Freezes and FngraAa Shade Make Grateful Hot-
 ing Spots.

10 is dif{icult to describe in fitting language the clove gardens of Zanzi- bar, says American Syren and Ship ping. The spicy breezes" which are said to blow soft OCT Ceylon's isle" blow with equal softness and perhaps no less spiciness through Zanzibar's beautiful clove forests. The whole is- land abounds in richest vegetation, but the clove forests are It's real beauty their fragrant shade from the oriental odors and genuinely bad smells of the stuffy streets of the old town itself! For Zanzibar is not like any American city in the width of its streets and the architecture of it's buildings. There is scarcely thoroughfare in the whole place wide enough to permit two ve- hicles to pass, and the system of sani- tation is almost as primitive as that of the garden of Eden; henceA some of the smells. Fortunately the clove for ests are not far away. Zanzibar has no docks or wharfs. All goods are landed or shipped by means of light CTS. lne tlual rise IS aDout ii IeeI and the fall necessarily the same. Vast stretches of beach are thus left bare at low water; hence more smells. But, with all its draw backs, Zanzibar is not particularly unhealthful. It Is hot, vigorously, viciously hot, but still the people, the white people, manage to live there in comparative comfort. and in spare hours play golf, tennis and sometimes even football.
