The morning Astorian. [volume] (Astoria, Oregon) 1899-1930, 1907-01-09

The tragic death of DR.. James Lam
bert at South Kensington station was
attended by one of the most extraor-
dinary circumstances that perhaps ev-
cr fell to the experience of a medical
man. DR., Lambert was usually sum-
moucd when accidents occurred at the
station, and when last Sunday, a man
was badly injured there, the station
officials, unaware of the identity of the
victim, promptly sent for DR.. Lambert
to attend to the case. The doctor fail
ing to respond, the dying man was re-
moved to st, Georges hospital, where
he was recognized as DR.. Lambert HIM
self He had been MANNED and cleo
trocutcd in attempting to jump on an
electric train, just as it was starting
and, by the irony of fate, was called to
attend to injuries to-himself.

Child Labor in Vacation.

Manly diScOuragements have been met
with by the Bucrau of Factory Inspec-
ti"n IN enforcing the provisions of the
law relating to child labor in the sum-
n1er vacation. No sooner had the
schools closed than it became appar-
eht to the inspectors that children in
overwhelming numbers between the
ages of fourteen and sixteen years were
hooking to the factories without secur-
ing employment certificates. even when
entitled to them. The children's eX-
PLANTATION of this neglect. says the re-
pert of the Department of Labor of the
state of New York, is that their teach
erS advised them that certificates were
not necessary in vacation. and the
school authorities therefore appear to
pe primarily responsible for these
wholesale violations of law. But the
employers are also responsible. The
inspectors have made strenuous efforts
10 enforce the law. but the magistrates
nave failed to support them. Thus. in

~ prevalent. twelve prosecutions in the
police court resulted in twelve convic-
tons, but the judge imposed no penal
ties. suspending sentence in every case.
In New York city five important
cases were lost in rapid succession

for employing a small Russian boy,

that ne was thirteen years old and who
actually appeared much younger. But
The magistrate held that these facts

discharged. In another case two chill
dfcn who were proved to be under
fourteen were found in a factory, ap-
parently at work, and stated to tho
inspector that they We're employed
there by the defendant, but the inspcc-
tor had not observed and could not
testify to what particular work they
were doing. The inspectors evidence
was insufficient to prove employment
and the case was dismissed.

favorable conditions of employment
prevailed in 1905 than in any other
year Of the decade. but these condi-
tons have still further improved in the
