NO ADOPTED SONS GO.
They Cannot Become Apprentices Of
Window Glass Houses
ONLY UNDER CERTAIN RULES.
A. New and Radical Measure Passed at
the Convention
TO PREVENT THE ABUSE OF AN OLD RULE

To those not Immediately concerned prob
ably one of the most interesting resolutions
ever offered BY any labor assembly, and yet
of vital importance to one organization at
least, was q new and radical measure adopted
yesterday afternoon at the sixth animal con-
vention of the Window Glass Workers'
Association. The new resolution, which
was carried after a long argument and in
which large number of delegates
took an active part, provides that
hereafter no window glass worker
can take an adopted son as an ap-
prentice unless the boy is at least II years
old and has been under his foster father's
care for one year previous to the time he
makes an application for an apprenticeship
in the Window Glass Workers Association.
The old rule is to the effect that father
can take q son and a brother can take Q
brother as an apprentice whenever he
thinks proper, while all other boys are COM
PEELED to seek an apprenticeship through
the regular channels and run the risk of
having their applications refused.
1t seems now that this rule has been
abused and some Of the members in order to
secure apprenticeship for boys have
adopted the lads and therefore met with
few obstacles in securing them work in
glass houses. By the enforcement of the
new measure the father will be compelled
to board, lodge and clothe his adopted son
for one year, providing at the end of the IL
months he is dozen years old or more.
The afternoon session at the convention
was devoted to new resolutions governing
apprenticeship work. One of the more i'm
portant and nearly as effective as the
''adopted son measure was a resolution
that when the Board of Examiners refused
an application of an apprentice the same
must be sent to the association and placed
upon the regular minutes, and the applica-
tion shall not be granted by any other
Board of Examiners in the several districts.
This resolution was also carried.
. In the morning President Eberhardt gave
q ruling on the laws of the association per-
tanning to the liquor question and an-
neunced that any member entering the
liquor business or acting as a barkeeper ct
any time loses his membership. A resolu-
tion to allow the blowers one hour for meals
was carried, but the resolution to have the
Secretary elected by popular vote was lost.
Just before the noon adjournment
measure was introduced that on the death
of member his widow, orphans or depen-
dents shall receive his pro rata share of all
moneys in the treasury, the President and
council to determine the amount This
resolution was also under discussion during
the afternoon, and after considerable debat-
ing was lost. The convention has almost
finished all the important business upon
the schedule and will finally adjourn this
afternoon.

Ventilation by FIues.

An expert in domestic hygiene as
serts that there should be in every
house at least one hue connected with
the living room, in which registers
should be placed both at the bottom
and the top of the room and as warm
air is lighter in winter than cold air,
there will he through these openings
a constant passage of air out of the
room-and, this being instantly e
placed by fresh air from without, the
air in the room will thus be kept pure
and sweet. In building the 1ue it
is advised that, if possible, it be in
the same chimney in which a con
slant fire is maintained, as the fue
will be warmed by means of this fire,
and therefore will add materially in
causing a draft of air out of the room.

ABOUT KALispEIL,

its grasp,

An Enthusiast From the rIa,head
City.
II. j. Mock Of the firm of Muth &
Mock of Kalispell, is in town. Mr.. Mock
is secretary of the board of trade of the
thriving young Flathead town and seems
to be thoroughly imbued with the idea
that the growth of that town will be as
great this season as it has in the past.
He says a census taken last October
showed a population of 800 and since the
advent of the railroad at least 800 more
have become residents of the town.
The material yards have been moved
there from Havre and about five miles
of sidetracks are being put in to afford
trackage for the 1000 or more cars of
material. Track laying west of Kalispell
has been completed about fifteen miles,
where it stops for the present until ii
k%alispell will be the head Office for
ing to Havre and the one west which
will extend probably to Spokane. The
head contractors claim they will have
the emu VI llc lTuCh III DDbhdilt ny tue
18th of July.
MI. Mock says the people of the Flat
head are a unit in favor of the creation
Of a new county separate from Missoula
and no stone will be left unturned to ac-
complish hat result when the next leg
islature meets. Mr.. Mock was asked
what he thought the name Of the county
would be and he replied that it might
possibly be called Kalispell. though, of
course, that was a matter which could
be easily attended to after the chicken
had been Matched, so to speak. This is
Mr.. Mock's second visit to Great Falls,
he having been here a year or 50 ago.
when he came with an excursion from
Helena. He had little time then to see
much of the city. an opportunity he has
not neglected this time. He is favorably
impressed with the Cataract City and
while a firm believer in the future of
Kalispcll, he thought it hardly fair to
compare the two places at present. Mr..
Mock was formerly city editor Of the
Helena journal.
