Hay as a Tinting Medium.

The string color that has been so fash
ionable of late may be easily obtained by
dipping lace into "A strong infusion OF hay
or hayseeds. Unless, however, the solu-
ton is tolerably strong In color the tint
will be but slight. To obtain the infusion
place n good handful of hayseeds in
pan, cover with about a quart of boiling
water and allow these TO simmer until
the water is dark in color. Then strain
and use.-Pall Mall Gazette.

had bought for his mother, but she al

into a laundry tub. She had no use for
that, either, so as If by magic it was
transformed into a typewriter. Passen-
gers deightedly gathered about to see
what further surprises were In store,
when the young man began to write,
when. still more wonderful. the keys
turned into marionettes. They pranced
up and down to the ceiling, Srinning COM
ically, then landed upon the heads of the
folks and sat there, when, presto. they
changed into a playing piano, which OF
it's own accord began TO play the turkey

ding March," every one marched out at
the Grand Central Station-the young
man also. with the piano on mis- back
leaving us alone in the car. Then we
awoke!
PUBLIC SERVICE COMMISSION TO

comforts OF home in one of the cross

Urges Change in Trial System.

In all ca,yos of misconduct or breach
Of discipline where recommendation for
dismissal is not made by the officer pre-
ferring the charges, the guilt OF the ac-
cused should be determined in the case
Of patrolmen by the captain ana IN 'he
case Of other officers by the inspector I'll
charge Of the district and the finding re-
ported to the central service board. Inc
offending member, if not satisfied shouid
have the right TO demand trial before
board designated for that purpose Dy
the Commissioner. All the offences for
which dismissal is recommended should
be tried before a board appointed Tor
that purpose by the Commissioner. the
right Of court review should be retained,
but this should be limited TO review
OF the proceedings before the board ana
should not apply TO the action OF the
central service board or the CohhnlS-
sioner in approving the hnding or the
trial board"
The investigators found that the pres
ent method of appointments and promo
tions. with eligible lists from which men
are selected standing for long periods
resulted eventually in the selection CT
men who were at the foot of the list OF
those who attained a passing average On
Examination The suggested method OF an
nual examinations. with schedule from
the Commissioner of the approximate
number OF men TO be required during
that period, would result, the invest-
tors believe, in the selection OF
higher grade of men.
In support of the recommendation Tor
the abolition Of the present power or the
Commissioner to designate captains as
inspectors and to denote inspectors 10
a captains job and salary the report de-
cares that the present system destroys
the effectiveness OF an inspector because
the captains know that another turn OF

To give a human incentive to efficiency

vice features Of the Police Department.
made public yesterday by the Curran al

could then be used as disciplinary meas
ures, and by that means the present sys-
TEN of imposing fines, particularly on pa
trolmen. by whom they are most keenly
felt. could be abolished
Civil service eligible lists for appoint
ment and for promotion should not con-
tinue fer longer than one year, the report
recommends, and at the end of that time
new examinations should be held 1t is
thought that by such a measure the stand
ard Of efficiency both ia patrolmen and in
the higher grades would be materially
raised.
CLOSER scrutiny should be paid to the
fitness Of appointees during the proba-
tlonary period" adds the report "and the
Investigation as TO their character should
be made jointly by the Civil Service Com
mission and the Police Department during
this period"
In effect. the report condemns the Bing-
ham law for the discretionary promotion
OF captains and inspectors. and declares
that the grade Of inspector should either
be established as a fixed rank or the des-
isnation of captain to act as inspector
should be abolished.

fixed increases in salary should be estab-
lshed at definite periods, these increases
10 be granted TO those whose service rec
ords come up TO n prescribed standard, in
order to give a human incentive for eff
hcient service" the report states.
The investigation upon which this re-
port is based was made under the direc-
ton Of Albert de Roode. who, under APP
pointment by Mayor Gaynor, exposed the
plumbing graft.
The aldermanic investigators recon-
mend that these records be kept by CEN
trial board in the Police Department to be
subject TO the Civil Service Commission.
Provision should be made for dismissal
upon the basis of continued inefiiciency, as
shown in the service record" the report
says. and It is suggested that service as
patrolman should be for period of five
years only. except (a where the patrol
man has been promoted or attained
place on a promotion list, and (b) where
the service record of patrolman comes
up to the standard PRESCRIBED from time
10 time"
As If in answer to the proposition that
such a wedding out process under present
conditions would make ii impossible 10 get
enough patrolmen. the report suggests that
the salary for the rank of patrolmau
should not be graded as at present, but
for the first five years should be fixed at
the average OF the present varying grades
Of salary during the first five years. The
present salary of $500 for a first year pa
trolman is called "less than a decent liv-
ing wage"
The Commissioner. it is recommended
should be relieved OF the detail OF trials
and should not be required TO read the
testimony, except in the cases OF members
of the highest fixed rank in the uniformed
force. captains or inspectors, but all pun
ishments should be subject TO the Commits
sioner's approval.
Discipline should be chiefly enforced
through the rating Of the service record,
the report goes on. land. where personal
punishment is desired, by curtailment oil
privileges rather than loss OF pay. Uni
formity Of punishment for similar offences
should be sought and this could best be
ACCOMPLISHED through having the central
board I'm charge OF service records rate

the trial body merely the question OF ind
ing tho fact Of guilt or merit, but not
prescribing the punishment, except in the
