A BOHEMIAN REFORNER.

Three Hundredth Anniversary Of the Birth
the Day by Many of HIS Raos In This
Country.
Yesterday was the 300th anniversary of the
birth of the great Bohemian educational re-
former Jan Amos Komensky. The local
Bohemians did not forget the great bene-
factor of their race, although the event was
not as prominently observed as it was in
some other cities where there are moro Of
their countrymen than are in Pittsburg.
In Chicago $50 Bohemian societies paid
tribute to the memory of the great reformer
in Music Hail. The day was likewise
observed in Milwaukee, Racine, Cedar
Rapids, st. Louis, Baltimore, New York
and other places.
Jan Amos Komensky (Comenins), the
son of a miller, who belonged to the
Maranian Brethren, was born on March %,
1892, in the village ofNivinoe, near Uhersky
and at an early age began the study of the
Latin language at Hebron and Heidelberg.
Shortly afterward he published his first
book at Prague. On his return to Marania
he was appointed to the Brethren's school
at Prerov, but being shortly afterward
called to the service Of the church, at the
age of "a these scholastic cares were laid
aside. His first pastoral charge was at
Fuluek. After the battle Sf White
Mountain, near Prague, he lost everything
he possessed at the hands of the Spaniards.
In 1927 he with other Protestants was ban
ished aud found refuge in the family of o
Bohemian nobleman at Sloupna. Here he
continued mis- studies. In 1923, however,
the persecution waxed so fierce that, with
most of his brethren, he had to flee his
country never to return. He roamed about
from place to place and finally died in
Amsterdam in 1871, at the advanced age of
80 and was buried at Naarden. Komensky
was very industrious. He wrote ~ great
works, Of which 81 are written in the Bohe-
mian language, which evinces his anxiety
for and the interest he took in the cause of
education of his people. He did more to
advance his mother language than any
other person who has ever lived.

rate in Allegheny, however, was greatly in
creased last week. The number of deaths

tory organs.

A Pessimistic Opinion OF tho Once Famous
Winter Resort.
John Jamison, Florida hotel man, was
at the Anderson yesterday. He remarked
that he had made barrel of money in his
day and had lost it. He left the country
this winter in disgust, and came back to the
North. He said the whole State wasn't
worth more than $4,000. Twenty years ago
Florida was a great winter resort, but in
recent times other places nearer the large
cities in the Northern States have been
opened, and the people have no occasion to
60 far away from home. He claimed there
are 200 resorts within an hours ride of New
York that are much patronized during the
winter. When Mr.. Jamison left Florida,
there were not more thon 100 guests in
Flag1er's famous Ponce de Leon Hotel.

CAPITAL AND LABOR.
Mr.. Tarsney's Resolution as to the Distri-
button Of the Benefits of Protection.

button of the Benefits of Protection.
Mr.. Tarsney Of Missouri proposes 10 intro
duce in the House today a resolu-
ton looking to the establishment of the prin-
ciple of federal supervision over the distribu-
ton Of the benefits Of protection between cap
ital and labor.
The resolution sets forth the constitutional
authority OF the general government and Of the
governments of the states to establish commits
sions and boards with judicial powers to regu-
late and control the carrying Of freight and
passengers upon railways and to judicially fix
and determine the rates Of tolls and
charges to be paid therefor; and
being analogous it should be o sound principle
Of constitutional authority that where q prerog-
ative of government is exercised directly,
without being delegated, but through the M
strumentality or agency of the private business
Of individuals or corporations, for the use and
benefit Of the public, the government has the
right to exercise such control and authority
over such private business rs viii secure such
public benefits, and it is alleged and claimed
that under the power Of taxation import duties
tanning revenue for the support Of the govern
ment, but also for the purpose of pro-
hibiting or impeding the importation
OF foreign commodities, in order that the
domestic manufacturer or prooncer OF like
commodities, being freed from competition OF
having competition lessened, may be enabled to
dispose Of bis productions with greater profits,
to the end that such increased profits will be
distributed among the laborers engaged in the
production Of such commodities by the pay
ment to such laborers Of increased wages.
It then asserts that under this policy-knowu
as the protective policy"-ll of the protec-
ton or benefit accrues profits from private
business enterprises and goes in the first in
stance to the employers of labor, and no law ex-
lists by which proper distribution Of profits
between employer and employe can
be regulated controlled or any
distribution thereof be enforced, and that
the sentiment and belief is general among
laborers that they the bearers of the bur
dens of this system, aud not its benefciaries;
that n part of the profits Of their employers
business resulting from the law comes to them
as added wages. but that the whole Of such
profits is absorbed by their en-
ployers, which has created great
dissatisfaction and discomfort among
wage workers, resulting in strikes, lockouts
and riots. and the committee on Judiciary
is directed to make report to the
House whether Congress is vested with
authority under the Constitution to
establish commission, board or other tribunal,
vested with judicial powers to regulate and
control the employment Of labor in what are
known as the protected industries. and to fix
and determine the wages that shhll be paid to
laborers therein and to adjudicate, settle and
determine all matters Of controversy between
such employers and employees.

DOES NOT INTEND TO RESIGN.

What Commissioner Of Pensions Raum Says
About the Latest Rumor.
Pension Commissioner Raum will deliver
an address before a reunion Of old soldiers at
Caldwell, Ohio, on Friday. He will probably
leave the city tomorrow and after filling this
engagement he intends to take short vacation
in order to enjoy a rest. He fully
expected that his departure would be
heralded by the usual announcement that he
had resigned and he was not disappointed, as a
dispatch in the New York World today gave
that alleged information.
Today, in conversation with STAR reporter,
he made the prediction that similar announce
ments would be made from time to time during
the remainder of the summer season. Gen.
Raum observed that he might be accommodate
ing to those interested to state in advance that
he had not resigned and that he did not
intend to resign. He says that the same per-
sons who have been pushing him in the recent
investigation are still at work and their &C tivity
in starting numerous rumors showed no signs
of abating. He expressed qualification over the
minority report of the committee and said that
report demonstrated that he had been the at
tempted victim of a conspiracy.
