H. H. May, baritone, George Colby,

comedian. Mr.. French needs no words
OF recommendation as he has appeared
here several times before, and all who
have heard him will not miss this oppor-
tunity of listening to his songs, jokes and
limitations. For the past four years this
quartet have assisted at nearly all the
entertainments given in the village and
have never received any compensation.
They have expended no small amount Of
money il purchasing music and as they
now find themselves in need Of new music
they take this way of asking the public
to assist them by attending the concert.
This is the first entertainment to come
before the public in their names and they
will spare no pains to make the enter
tainment worth the price Of admittance.

LABOR OF
CHILDREN
IN STATE.
Interesting Information Given
in Annual Reports Of the
State Factory inspectors

The seventh annual report OF the state
factory inspectors was submitted TO the
senate by Gov. Gregory this morning.
and ordered communicated to the house.
The report states that the number of
persons employed in the various estab-
lishment. coming under the state Law, is
as follows:
Males of 16 years of age and over, a.
337; females Of 16 years OF age and over.
32,2l5; whole number OF adults, 1859;
males under 16 years OF age. 2S44; females
under 16 years OF age. 2409; whole num-
Der of children, 5253; total number en-
ployed, 31.SO5.
A comparison of the foregoing figures
with those reported last year. shows an
increase OF 2502 in the number of men
employed; an increase OF l754 in the num-
ber of women employed, an increase or
2S9 in the number of boys employed. and
an increase of 29S i'm the number OF girls
employed; a total increase of i343.
OF this increase in the number OF en-
ployes, 277s adults. and 27S children were
found in the new places visited, and l411
adults and 314 children comprise the In
crease in the number employed this
year
A careful examination OF the statistics
reveals the fact that the greater part OF
this increase in child labor is to be found
i'm Industries other than cotton or woolen
In 1899 the combined cotton and woolen
industries OF the state gave employment
to 1888 children or 1871 per cent. of all the
children employed This year those indus
tries employed 3639 children, or 70.2 per
cent. of the whole number under l6 years
OF age.
In 1892 the industries. other than cot
ton or wooden, gave employment to 1l33
children or A.3 per cent. OF the Whole
number under l6 years OF age, This year
the some class of industries employed
1866 children or 29.6 per cent. OF ALL an
actual increase over the year 1899 OF 43S
and a proportionate increase OF 55 per
cent.
The factory inspectors recommend the
passage of an amendment To the law,pro-
viding that no person, firm or corpora
ton who shall be deemed factory. man
ufacturing or mercantile establishment
within the meaning OF the law, shall en-
ploy any child under Is years OF age while
the public schools OF the town or city
where such child resides are In session,
unless furnished with certificate from
the school authorities of such town or
city that such child can read and write
the English language.
