 Tonight this popular company will be seen in the greatp story play Led Astray" This is one of the strongest plays in the company's extensive roper toire. and will be given an elaborate production. The plot is a strong one, with all the requisites that make a clever drama. Comedy and pathos are intermingled throughout The duel scene will be found especially intense. As many will no doubt infer from the title, the play deals with a thoughtless husband with a beautiful wife who withers for want of love, a plotting scOundrel with a smooth tongue. a duel and all ends happily. That all sounds commonplace, but it's the weaving of the play that tells. MT. Dion Bouci- cault. the author. showed his clever ness in this work. as in his other sue cesses.

EIGHT HOUR
LAW IS VALID
U. S. Supreme Court Sus-
tains Legality Of Kansas.
Statute
ALL PUBLIC WORKS AFFECTED
Opinion Is Based On Theory That Mu-
inequalities Are Creatures Of the
State and Work For Them lnfrinses
On No Ones Personal Liberty.

Washington, Dec 1.-The supreme
court of the United States has sus-
tanned the validity Of the Kansas act
prescribing eight hours as a lawful
days work on all public works and
prescribing penalties for contractors
who permit or require their workmen
TO work longer.
The Kansas law. whose validity was
called into question in the suit, was
enacted in 1891. and provided that
eight hours should constitute a days
work for worlxmen employed by OF on
behalf Of the state or by any county
or city OF other municipality in the
state. It also prohibits contractors
from requiring laborers engaged on
work for the state to perform more
than eight hours labor in day Both
fine and Imprisonment for any viola
ton Of the law. The case decided to-
day was that Of WV. Atkins VS.. the
State Of Kansas Atkins had a con
tract with the corporation Of Kansas
City Kan, for paving a street an0
he was charged with requiring work
man named Reese to labor 10 hours a
day. He was prosecuted in the state
courts, where the decisions were uni
formly against him. Atkins appealed
from the decision Of the state supreme
court to the federal supreme court, al
ieging that the statute is in violation
Of the first section of the 14th amend
ment Of the constitution in that it de
MED him due protection Of the law
and deprived him OF his property with.
out a process.
Referring to the only other decision
Of the court on the eight hour ques
ton. that of Holden vs. Hardy. IN
which the court sustained the law oi
Utah fixing an eight hour day fol
miners employed under ground. Justice
Harlan called attention to the fac
that while in the Utah case private in
terests were involved, the present cas-
involves employment on public work
The opinion was based on the theor.
that all the municipalities OF a stat
are the creatures of the state; tina
work for them is Of a public charac
ter and does not infringe on .he per
sonal liberty of any one.
