yAL1p1rY OF LABOR LAW.

The validity of the New York law
prosecuting an action thereon, accord
regardless of age in factories between
8 o'clock p. m. and 6 o'clock a. M,
came up for final determination by the
state courts in People vs.. Williams, 81
Northeastern Reporter, us. The court
of special sessions of the First divis-
ion of THE City of New York 600 New
York supplement 1917 held the law UNI
constitutional as infringing the con-
stMutional right to contract. This de-
cision was affirmed by the Appellate
division by divided court I01 New
York supplement, 562, 116 App. div.
379). The court Of appeals now at
firms the decision OF the court below,
and holds the law unconstitutional on
the same grounds as the court Of spe-
cial sessions. The court says that
the courts have gone very far In up
holding legislative enactments framed
clearly for the welfare, comfort, and
health of the community; but when 1t
is sought as here, arbitrary to prevent
an adult female citizen from working
at any time Of the day that suits her,
1t is time to call a halt. Such law
arbitrarily deprives citizens of their
right to contract with each other.

ALIEN AS TRUSTEE IN BANK
RUPTCY.
The United States district court for
the southern district of New York, In
the case of In re Coe, 1874 Federal Re-
porter 1872, holds that an alien Is
competent to be trustee in bank
ruptcy. 1t was contended that, as a
general proposition, no alien can be an
officer, and as the bankruptcy act de-
fines the term Officer" to include,
among others. trustees, an alien cam
not be trustee; but the court says
that trustee in bankruptcy does not
occupy an office In the sense in which
the term Is used in the law prohibits
ing an alien from being public Off
Ger. and, furthermore, tha section of
the bankruptcy act prescribing the
qualifications of trustees does not ex-
pressly prohibit aliens from acting.

Louisiana, in Morton Trust Com

Federal Reporter, $40, appears to be
rather novel. 1t is there held that
goats placed on land for the sole pur-
pose OF destroying brush and weeds
thereon and keeping down the grass
are fixtures. This decision IS Of
course, based on the civil law. and In
the opinion the court notes that In
France 1t has been held that cows at
tached to dairy farms are fixtures or
immovables.

Seeing Lightning Strike,

In July last William F.. Rigge OF
Creighton university had the unus
ual fortune to see bolt of lightning
strike an isolated cottonwood tree
about quarter of mile away. The
flash appeared as superb column or
shaft of light about 400 or 500 feet
high and to - inches in diameter
perfectly straight. vertical and
steady The shaft was white, but
its base was tinged with red. This
column seemed to stand between two
diverging trunks of the tree, and
lasted about two seconds. Afterward
Mr.. Rigge found that one of the two
trunks of the double tree had its bark
stripped of in the shape of a ribbon
six inches wide and two yards long.
The other trunk showed two burrows
beginning ten feet above the ground.
They looked as If they had been
plowed by piece of steel. There was
no sign of fire.

Many may be surprised to hear that

lids, from their "ridiculously small
heads In the last, decade of the
nineteenth century, a leptocephalid in
an aquarium in Brittany was OBJ
served to become gradually opaque
and cylindrical, until it turned into a
little conger-eel. In 1901 Profs. Grassi
and Calandruccio demonstrated that a
species of leptocephalid, swarming
near the Strait of Messina, was the
long-sought young of the fresh-water
eel. Now it is known that cells when
full grown make their way down from
ponds, bitches and streams into large
rivers, and from these to the sea.
where they spawn at depth of about
$50 fathoms. On the way to the ocean
the skin of the eel becomes silvery, it's
eyes grow large and dark, and the
milt and eggs develop in both sexes.
The leptocephalids grow to a. length
OF about three inches, and then ascend
rivers in the form of elvers, or
young cells.
