REST ESSENTIAL
FOR ENGINEERS

HELENA, Mont, Feb 26.-The
Montana sixteen hour law for rail-
road employees in the train service
was today declared by the state SUI
preme court to be valid and consti-
tutional, and the Northern Pacific
must pay the 500 fine for its viola
ton, bby Judge Clements of this
court.
The law provides that employees
must not be worked for more than
Is hours without eight consecutive
hours for rest The railroad lawyers
contended that it was an exclusive
power of congress. but the court
held that until the national body
acted the state had right, under
its ordinary police poyers, to en-
force such regulations.

Captain Els Lecture,

Prof. H. L. darlington of the
State Normal school speaks of the
lecture and lecturer as follows:
"A few years ago had the pleas
ure of hearing Captain Eli, who was
for many years engaged in whale
fishing, tell of his experiences in
this work.
He Is born story teller, a genial
whole-souled gentleman, who speaks
from the standpoint of one descrip-
ing what he has seen and expert
enced. His lecture had in it on the
enc hand all of the excitement and
hair-breadth escapes incident to the
pursuit and capture of the whale,
end on the other hand it was a pic
ture of the lazy, languid, listless life
of the sailor, who sometimes cruises
months in search of his game The
lecture was full of excitement and
humor, entirely free from the tragic
or pessimistic, adapted to all ages
and classes, and was thoroughly en-
ioyed by all who heard 1t.
Captain Eli would not be spoken
of as either eloquent or learned. He
Is an entertainer. have rarely
heard anything which I more thor
oughly enjoyed than his lecture on
the pursuit and capture of the
whale"

of black and white checks scattered
