PHYSICAL TESTS FOR BMPLoYE.

PHYSICAL TESTS FOR EMPLOYEES.
One of the leading railroad COM
panies in the east has decided to es-
tablish a rule for physical tests before
employing men which will be as severe
as that required for entering the army
or navy. This decision is based on the
new federal employers liability act,
passed by the last congress, the rail-
road taking the position that in order
to avoid the payment of heavy dam
ages it will be necessary to require a
higher degree of efficiency among en-
ployes than heretofore.
The travelling public will be pleased
TO learn of the new rule. AS a general
proposition railroad men are a rugged
lot, but the reports of the Interstate
Commerce commission show that many
accidents are traced to the physical in
efficiency of railway trainmen. 1t will
be better for mankind il employees
charged with the transportation and
care of human lives are required to
show a clean bill of mental and moral
health before. they secure or are al
lowed to retain their positions.

PHILADELPHIA WILL CELEBRATE
Largest AFFAIR Since the Centennial
Exposition Under Way.

~ AMIR since the centennial
Exposition Under Way.
Philadelphia is preparing to get gay.
When the Quaker City puts on that mood
the result is the real thing. The provo
cation for the coming outburst of civic
hilarity is the 225th anniversary of the
founding of the city. 1t is calculated that
a fun week is needed to signalize the event
properly, and from October 4 to 10 there
will be a series of day and night festivi-
ties financed by the city which will eclipse
any affair of the kind attempted on the
western hemisphere. A large assertion,
surely, but Philadelphia's word is good for
it. From the beginning Of the celebration
at sunrise on Sunday morning, when the
bell Of Independence hall, together with all
the church chimes in the city, formally
opens the celebration, to the closing of
the celebration on the Saturday night fol-
lowing, Philadelphia will not witness an idle
moment.
