TAFT TO ENFORCE
EIGHT HOUR LAW
REGARDING PUBLIC WORKS AND
ARMY EMPLOYEES STRICT Or
pERs ARE GIVEN TO ENGINEER
OFFICERS.

Washington, March 13.-Secretary Taft
has given orders to the engineer officers
of the war department to enforce to the
letter the language of the eight-hour law
as applying to public works under their
direction. This action, it Is said, was
taken by the secretary of his own volition
after a careful examination had con-
WINGED him that the construction former
ly given to the law where large classes
of employees were held to be exempt from
its operation, was erroneous, The effect
of this last order. which was issued with
the permission OF the President, Will be
far-reaching and, 1t Is predicted, VIII
greatly reduce the amount of river and
harbor work that cannot be accomplished
under the appropriations made by the last

10 MISSING FROM

Roll Call After Disastrous Ex-
pIosion at Ioulon
MINISTER OF MARINE COMES

Town Is In Deepest
Mourning.
MINISTER OF MARINE COMES

Toulon, France, March 13-The efforts
to recover the bodies of those killed by
the explosion on board the French battle
ship lena, which have been carried on
with energy for twenty-four hours, have
not yet resulted in definitely fixing the
number of casualties. After the last roll
call tonight there were still unaccounted
for eight officers and 10 men.
Unfortunately there is little doubt that
all these missing men perished. The roll
was applied only to the crew of the lena
and as it is believed that some twelve
or fifteen arsenal hands were engaged on
board the battleship at the time Of the
explosion it is feared that the total num-
Der of dead will reach 100. In this be-
lief the naval hospital here was instruct
ed tonight to prepare mortuary space for
that number.
Minister of Marine Thomson made a
second visit to the lena late this after
noon after the dry dock had been
empted of water and made careful ex-
animation of every part of the battleship
that was accessible The interior steel
piankins and the partitions of the battle
to enormous pressure. In many places
they are bulged out or indented. The gap
in the side of the vessel acted as safety
valve for the vast volume of gas, with
out which the explosion would have had
even more disastrous results.
All day long weeping mothers, wives
and other relatives of the missing men
thronged the approaches to the dry dock,
hoping that their loved ones We're still
alive and eagerly scanning the stretchers
that were brought In.
Fifty bodies were recovered during the
day, but only twelve of them could be
recognized The remainder were formless
masses of charred flesh.
At Z o'clock this evening hope was re-
vvsd by a rumor that several men had
been brought out alive, but this proved to
be untrue.
Toulon. France, March 1S.-Minister of
Marine Thomson arrived here this morn
ing from Paris. The roll of the battle
shin lena on which the disastrous ex-
plosion occurred yesterday, was immedi-
ately called and 4O7 men replied TO their
names. Those of the crew who are In
jured were qnartered temporarily in the
naval barracks. Twenty-four officers and
engineers also are reported to be safe,
and besides these are forty-four OF the
crew lying In the hospitals seriously In
jured. AS the officers and crew num-
bered go, it will thus he seen that 153
are not accounted for. but the naval au-
thorities consider it most probable that
a large number of these have sought
refuge with relatives or friends in Tou-
Ion.
Later in the day forty-one Of the miss
ing men turned up, leaving ia unacconnt-
ed for or killed

there is still a gap between the

Many yong men interested in
agriculture wish more instruction
than can be given in short winter
courses. AID yet do not care to
spend four years in taking the full
college course in agriculture
Some are not far enough advanced
to meet the requirements for en-
trance to the college course. and
cannot get the necessary prepare
ton in the country schools in
their vicinity. Are not these young
men entitled to the advantages
afforded by the Agricultural Col
lege of the State? Yet how can
those of insufficient preparation
be admitted without lowering the
standard of college requirements?
These questions have vexed the
agricultural colleges from the
beginning, and many attempts
have been made to solve them.
One OF the most successful has
been the School of Agriculture of
the University of Minnesota.
which has been growing in
strength. and has, perhaps. solved
the problem for Minnesota.
The Louisiana State University
has decided to offer Similar OPP

The School of Agriculture has

giving a practical education to

In speaking on the good road

has this to say:
Fifty years ago there was some
excuse for bad roads for our coun-
try was poor. Now it is rich there
is no excuse. A good road is Away
to be desired, and is asourcc of
comfort and convenience to travel
ers. Good roads attract population
as we'll as good schools and chur-
ches. Good roads improve value
of property. SO that it is said a
farm lying FIVE miles from market
connected by a bad road. is of less
value than an equally good farm
connected by a good road.A larger
load can be drawn by one horse
over good road than by two over
bad one. Good roads encourage
the greater exchange of products
and commodities between one sec

of great value to railroads as
