HAVE ISSUED NO ORDERS
FOR RACE SEGREGATION
Department Officials Make Statement
Based on Resolution Of Inquiry
Pending in Senate.

No formal orders for the SEGREGATION
of coaored and white employees have been
enforced In any government department
in Washington, according to statements
made today by department officials The
question came up in connection with the
introduction in the Senate last week of
a resolution by Senator Clapp providing
for an inquiry to determine II such an
order had been issued for the postal
service.
The chief clerks of different depart-
ments, including the Post Office Depart.
ment, declared today that no such orders
have been issued. They added that as a
general thing it was customary for color
ed employees to keep more or less to
themselves, but that no formal action
had ever been taken.
Senator Clapp's Comment.
Senator Clapp said today he knew
nothing of the facts in the case, but that
It had been reported to him that the
races were segregated in the postal serv-
ice. He added that he expected speedy
action on his resolution. and hoped that
the Senate post Office committee would
investigate the question.
A particularly large number Of colored
neople are employed in the Treasury De-
pertinent. but it was said there today
that there is no formal segregation ex-
cent in regard to lavatOry facilities. In
the department of Agriculture very few
colored people are employed. except as
laborers, and therefore the question has
never arisen.
Never Formally Considered.
The chief clerk Of the Interior Depart.
mont said no formal segregation orders
have been issued there. The question has
never come up in a definite manner ir
any department. it was said, and no rul,
ing has ever been required.
Recording to government officials, The
question is one which generally regu.
lates itself The colored employees usu.
aIly occupy desks or chairs somewhat
anart from the other employees. its wal
said, although in many cases even this
rule does not obtain.

FLOWERS THAT MATCH FR0cK
One of the Prettlest Fancies of Many
Seasons Is the Adornment
Thus Effected.

What real pleasure women missed
when they were too prim to tuck a
bunch of flowers into their frocks, or
too fearful lest the stalks should stain
their pretty raiment.
Nowadays flowers are the finishing
touch of every toilette, and some wom-
en- give orders to their florists or their
gardeners for bouquet twice or thrice
a day to match the gowns they intend
to wear.
In the evening it is usual to wear a
single and very exquisite blossom, the
work of human hands. A giant rose, a
mammoth poppy, an orchid-all are
popular. Strange fantasies in mater
ial are employed; here a lace flower
tipped with fur, and there one made of
hand painted mousseline, a marvellous
copy of natures own handiwork.

MUST BE HAND EMBROIDERED
The Proper Thing for Both White ane
CoIored Linen Parasols-Wide
Variety of Designs.

White and colored linen parasols
show hand embroidery. They are
mounted with ivory or bone handles
and tips or with light natural or pol
ished wood handles and brass-pointed
tips. Some of them are finished about
the edge with fringe, some with plain
hem and some with an embroidered
scallop. A wide variety of designs is
shown in embroidered parasols. Satin
stitch, eyelet work and outlining are
used in combination to produce both
ornate and simple effects. Almost all
parasols are made with eight panels,
and half a dozen skeins of cotton are
needed for embroidering each panel
with design of moderate size; Ave
or six dozen skeins, therefore, would
be sufficient for any parasol. The big
department stores make up the en-
broidered panels into parasols and sci
sticks and frames.

NEW WEAPON AGAINST GERMS
French Scientist Invents Method OF
Purifying Afraid TO Fight Con-
tagious Diseases.

That distinguished psychologist,
Prof. Charles Richet OF the Academy
OF Medicine, has given the particulars
Of an invention which he recently sub
rnitted to his colleagues for the puri-
flcation of air in rooms.
He has contrived an apparatus called
an air filter. The principle on which
1t is based is the method adopted by
certain psychologists and notably by
Director Mont-Souris OF the Observa-
tory of Miguel for determining the
number of germs contained in the air.
Professor Richet's air filter consists
of small ventilator worked by cleo
tricity. which displaces about 200
cubic meters of air an hour. Beneath
the fans of the yentilator is a reser-
voir of glycerin.
The rotation OF the fans scatters
the glycerin in fine drops along the
walls of the cylinder containing the
ventilator and the 200 cubic meters of
air which are passing through the
cylinder are purified since the air par
ticles constantly come into contact
with the little circuit of liquid par
ticles which carry with them as they
fall the germs, dust, microbes. and
spores always found in the air.
The mechanical sterilization of air
in this method is kind of laboratory
imitation of the vast publication of
the atmosphere caused by a heavy
rainfall Professor Richet thinks the
general use of his apparatus would
materially diminish the risks OF con-
tagion by the germs of scarlatina,
smallpox and consumption.

In a recent trial at Prague man
was charged with forging entries in q
baptismal register. In pleading not
guilty he stated that if he committed
the forgery it was done in trance
and under the suggestion of certain
hypnotist, whose name he had been
forbidden to disclose. His family ply
stefan declared that the accused was
a neurotic, easily hypnotized, and, to
prove his assertion, began to read,
despite the judges protest, formula
beginning Deus Aetersus," from a
French book on magic, which the doc
tor had discovered the unknown hyp-
notist used for the accused. To the
amazement and horror of the court
the prisoner Immediately fell into a
hypnotic trance, with his arms stiff
and outstretched Lawyers present
thrust needles into his flesh and tried
to move his arms to see if he were
shamming, but without producing any
reaction. The prisoner aWoke only
when the doctor breathed upon him,
uttering another formula. The trial
was adjourned to get the opinion of
medical experts. the Family

Innocence

guess they won't do 1t any more,
though. One of them wrote me a
note to that effect"
After Mr. Harper wrote out the
charge of disorderly conduct, not in
Guiding profanity, for them, they both
gave nod. indicating they were
guilty After hearing the testimony,
and on the recommendation of the po-
liceman, Judge Pugh took their per
sonal bonds.
This is a legal form which requires
that the clerk read certain formula
to the prisoners whose personal
bonds are taken, after which he is
allowed to go free. and the last check
on the laughter of the large Monday
crowd in court was removed when the
clerk had to conform to this require
ment.

LIVING HELPED BY THE DEAD
Living Fox Terrier Frisks About on
Leg of Dead Companlon-Sone
Odd Experiments.

The knee joint of a dead man has
replaced the injured Joint of living
person. The arteries of husband and
wife have been successfully joined 80
that the wife might endure the shock
of surgical operation. An infants
blood has been revitalized by the
blood of its parent A human artery
and jugular vein have been inter-
changed and each fulfilling the others
function. The kidneys Of one cat have
been substituted for the corresponding
organs of another. A living fox ter
rier frisks about upon the leg sof a
dead companion. In the experiments
of DR.. Alexis Carroll of the Rockefel-
Ter institute to preserve arteries he
found that desiccation would not do,
but produced state of absolute death.
Then he put the arteries in refrigera-
tors and kept them inclosed in her
meticalIy sealed tubes at tempera-
ture little above freezing. He found
that an artery could be kept alive for
so days and substituted for the artery
of a living animal. 1t is thought by
those who are experimenting that the
day is not far of when the perfect
organs of man who in life had been
free from disease may be kept in cold
storage after his death and used to re-
place diseased organs in living men.

Problem $500 Years AGO.

The question as to the ACCESSIBILITY
of women working, which is agitating
the public mind department in this
year of grace, was a pressing one in
Athens $500 years ago. In the Memoir
abilia Xenophon tells of conversa-
ton that Socrates had with Aristotle
on the subject
Aristarchus was complaining that
he had no income to support the sis
tiers and nieces and cousins who had
fed to his home for refuge because Of
the disturbed condition of the country.
Socretes made the obvious sugges-
ton that the ladies go to work. Ac-
cordingly Aristarchus provided the ma
terial and they got busy spinning and
weaving, with exceedingly happily re-
suits.
Only one source of discord develop
ed. Life proved so easy under the cir
cumstances that Aristarchus did moth
ing himself and the women complain
ed that he was the only person in the
house thatsate the bread Of idleness- !"
Human nature and human problems
continue much the same from age to
sea.

HOW TO WRITTEN THE THROAT
LGnon Juice or Ripe Tomato viii
Remove Any DiscoIorations-
Alcohol to Harden.

Shapeliness is not all that is neces-
sary to the making of throat beauti-
full. The texture of the skin must be
fine and soft, white and unblemished.
Cleanliness is the first essential. A
good thorough scrubbing with not too
soft brush, hot water and soap, once or
twice week, will do no harm, the rest
OF the time using the ordinary cloth.
Apply lemon juice or ripe tomato to
any discolorations that may appear,
and unless the pores are enlarged,
use cold cream freely.
Alcohol will harden tbs flesh. AS
for the various bleaches, there are
some that are harmless, except insofar
as they invariably are drying, which
ultimately leaves the skin harsh and
brasil Here is one that can easily be
made at home, but, like the others, it
Is drying, so be sure to counteract this
effect by applying cold cream after
using it. Mix half an ounce of perox-
ide of hydrogen, six ounces of witch
hazel and half an ounce of Tactic acid.
Apply this with soft cloth.

yX7 ASHINGTON-Geoffrey O'Hara.
w recently appointed by the int
rior department at Washington to
record the tribal songs and music of
all American Indians, began his work
in New York city the other day by
taking his first Photographic records
of the songs of the Blackfeet Indians
from Glacier National park, Mont.
Secretary of the Interior Lane took
advantage of the Blackfeet Indians
being in New York. He sent Mr..
O'Hara on to New York from Wash
ington to begin his laborious task
with these Indians Mr.. O'Hara is
having them sing into monographs
and the records will be brought to
this city to be put in the government
archives, preserving for all time the
music of the original Americans.

Canned Indian Songs to Be Placed in Archives


The Indians have been singing 10
the monographs under the direction
of Mr. O'Hara. The Indians could
hardly grasp the idea at first OF how
they could sing into tin horn and
thereby record their music. After
the first song had been sung. how
ever, the reproduction was given them
in a few minutes and the magic Of the
operation was bewildering to them.
Mr.. O'Rara is arranging to visit
Glacier National park early this sum
mer and complete his records of the
Blackfeet tribe there.
Through the interior department
arrangements were made to take
these records privately in New York
in an out-of-the-way loft. There is
one song in particular which the
Glacier Park Indians sing. in which
musical critics find considerable
merit. This is song descriptive of
the Blackfeet Indians love of his
home environment. Big Top, the In
dian interpreter, says:
my people always sing this song,
because when they go away from the
mountains their hearts are lonely.
and it makes them think Of home
sweet home"
