EIGHT HOURS A DAY.
Federal Court Upholds = Statute Passed
by the Utah Legislature.

Federal Court Upholds = Statute Passed
by the Utah Legislature.
WASHINGTON, March LIN the su.
preme court an opinion was handed
down in the case Of F. F. Holden, yer.
sus the sheriff of Salt Lake county,
Utah, involving the constitutionality
of the territorial law fixing a days
work in smelters and mines in the ter.
ritory at eight hours. Holden was ar.
rested for violating the law and SEN
fenced to imprisonment. He brought
the case to the supreme court in an ct.
fort to secure a writ Of error on the
ground that the law was unconstitu.
tional, in that it was calculated to de.
prive a citizen Of life OF property with
out due process of law. The court held
that such vas not the case, but that
the law was an exercise of states police
powers. Justice Brown said in passing
upon the case that it was not the
intention of the court to pass generally
upon the constitutionality Of 8.hour
laws, but that insofar as state laws
were exerted for the protection of the
lives, the health or the morals of a
community, there would be no doubt OF
their propriety or of their constitution.
atty. There could be no doubt of the
exceptional and unhealthful character
of work in smelters or mines, because
of bad air, high. temperature and nox.
ious gases, and hence the wisdom OF
the state legislation. The decision OF
the supreme court of Utah was affirmed.

Women Like "Quo vadis" Best

1t is a curious fact that the majority of
"Quo Vadis" readers have been women.
Both librarians and booksellers will tell
you this, and conversation with any ten
men and ten women will assure you of it.
Not nine out of every ten men will have
read the book, while but one of every ten
women will not have done so. 1t isn't that
the story is such a bourgeois character
that the preference of the fair sex for it is
surprising. Rather is it because 1t is a
tale of action, of strife and pillage, not to
say torture and carnage. What is there in
those piled-on agonies of flesh and spirit
so detaiedly If not graphically portrayed
for chapter after chapter that should ap-
peal to the sex that squeals at mention of
a mouse, not to say faints at sight of
blood? AS a rule you will find women al
ways buying books of this sort. They
seem to like to read about the very things
which in real life would terrify and disgust
them, and it must be the things themselves
for in the "Quo Vadis' case especially
there is nothing attractive in the treat
ment.-New York Evening Sun.

She Wanted Attention

An extremely well-dressed young woman
stood before the art needlework' counter
of one Of the dry goods shops Tuesday
morning. She was unmistakably taflor-
made, and her "scolding locks were pinned
up with the coled snake of turquoises.
Half dozen times she tried to engage
the attention of the saleswoman, who had
enough customers waiting to have occu-
pied five saleswomen. Every time the
saleswoman responded, 'In a minute I'll
wait on you," and went placidly ON at
tending to the wants of somebody else. The
well-dressed young woman trembled with
impatience.
..These Washington clerks don't under
stand their business like New York
clerks" she said to her companion "A
New York clerk can wait on eight people
at once
'It's outrageous having to wait this
way" said the companion. who wore an
owl on her hat.
ITS shameful" said the first young
woman.
"It's perfectly horrid," said the second.
1.-THE people that keep this store ought
to be taught lesson" said the first young
woman. 1--WE a great mind to go some-
where else, have"
This terrible threat seemed to move the
saleswoman. She rolled her eyes languidly
toward the young woman.
What is 1t you want?" she asked.
'T want one sken of silver gray flo, u

body heaved a sigh of relief. The store

WOMAN AS A DIVER
Mrs. Gordon Dons Submarine Armor
and Goes Under Water

Mrs. Lille Gordon, the wife of a veteran
submarine diver of South Portland Ore. de
termined to try to emulate in some meas
ure her husbands feats, and she astonished
beholders by donning diving suit and,
unattended, making trip under the water
of the Oregon coast.
The dive was made by Mrs. Gordon from
the steam wrecking schooner Island Belle,
Captain David Hill, in about thirty feet of
water. Mrs. Gordon went over the side
and down the ladder with step as sure
and steady as veteran diver, and her hus-
band, who had been expecting her to give
in at the last moment, looked through the
glass front of the helmet and saw a pleas
ant smile on her face.
In describing her trip Mrs. Gordon said
that she did not feel in the least afraid, as
she knew all the signals we'll, but she said
that when she took the drop from the lad
der the sensation was something almost in
describable. 1t seemed as If she We're
smothering and everything looked black
about her, but in a few moments after
reaching the bottom the air came from
the pumps regularly and she began to feel
better The outfit she had to don, includ-
ing weights, helmet and shoes, weighed
about 1S5 pounds, no light load for a woman

the diving business for twenty-three years.
