ANTHRACITE STRIKE COM.
MISSION.

These Little Girls Stood All Night In
the Midst of Dangerous. WhirIing
Machinery For Mere Pittance, and
All This Under Law That Expert
ence Has Proved inefficient.
Conditions surrounding child labor
in Pennsylvania have been such that
the State has become a gathering place
for factories that rely upon cheap la
Dor. no matter how obtained, for great
profits.
Particularly true is this of the silk
and woolen factories that have drained
the schools of the anthracite and BIZ
luminous coal regions of thousands OF
children. For these little ones, the
bill which has been framed and modi-
fed under the supervision of the Penn
sylvania Child Labor Committee will
be a means of rescue and permanent
safeguard against future imposition.
The character of work that has been
required from these children of the
mining regions is best told in the Off
cial notes of testimony given before
the Anthracite Strike Commission in
Scranton, Dec Is, 1902. Following are
excerpts from that evidence:

Fashion says

The new coppery shades that range between
red and brown have in their favor the fact
that in cheaper material they look so harsh
that no. good dresser thinks Of buying them If
the material is Of good enough quality to make
these colors attractive, then horde of du-
plicates is done away with. In good shops
it is noticeable that broadcoths and velvets
and the softer silks are the materials most in
evidence in these colors.
: In buying smoke, gray and gun;metal, no
woman may fear going out Of fashion soon,
for they are promised longer life than most
other colors. If occasion demands it., a fair
3 grade of material is not essential in these
shades, as it Is in some others, although it
goes without saying that gray in broadcloth
could "give cards and spades to most other
things and come out ahead in looks. T.

to pay the $1,250, as the new lease at
