CHURCH AND CHILD LABOR.

n A result OF the action of the recent general
convention OF the Episcopal Church, held
at Richmond, the National Child Labor Commit
tee OF that church has called upon all the Episco
pal clergy to consider the subject of child labor
on Sunday January 20. The resolutions of the
general convention on this question asked "em-
ployers and parents to exercise their influence
toward better enforcement of the laws. to the end
that the exploitation of the labor of children shall
become impossible in this country"
There are child labor laws of various degrees
OF effectiveness in eighteen States but it is said
two million children are still employed upon a
wage basis large field of activity for Episco-
pal ehurchmen toward the suppression of the eni-
ployment OF children as wage-earners thus pre-
sents itself.

WHEN PURIFIcATIoN is NECESSARY.

a CCORDING to Theodore Horton in the
n current number of Municipal Engineering
Magazine, there are few places where some puri-
hcation Of domestic sewage is not desirable or
even necessary He claims that any method Of
sewage disposal must do one or more Of three
things: First remove the coarse ani fine sus-
pended matter in the sewage; second, prevent Of
fensiveness in the water or lands on which the
sewage is discharged; third, to render harmless
any disease germs there may be in the sewage
Mr. Horton lays down the following general re-
qurements for all cases Of sewage disposal:
First where stream is not subsequently used
for public water supply, but where its aesthetic
or industrial qualities are important, and where
the volume of flow is so large as compared with
the volume Of sewage that offensveness will not
result, it will be only necessary to remove the
suspended or floating matters by efficient screen
ing or settlement.
secondly, where a stream is not used subse-
quently Tor a public water supply, but from the
volume OF sewage discharged into it offensive
odors may arise, it will be necessary. in addition
to the removal Of suspended matters, to remove
or oXidize the organic matter in the sewage"

give the Pennsylvania Railroad Company the
nigh reputation it has enjoyed for securing the
best in the railroad service His long life was de-
voted to rairoading. He knew it in all its
branches He came from New England to the old
Philadelphia, Wilmington and Baltimore system.
ana when that road was absorbed by the Pennsyl-

ehieient officials under the new regime. His most
important position was that Of general manager
OF three branches of the road When he desired
to be relieved Of some of the burdens of a verv
active life, he was made president of the Delawar,

LOS ANGELES MEN
CLAIM OWNERSHIP OF
ALCA7RAZ ISLAND
Suit Is Filed to Recover Valuable
Papers Said to Have Been
Left with an At
torney

The little island of Alcatraz in San
Francisco bay, which some years ago
passed from the state into the owner
ship of the national government and on
which a naval training station has been
placed, is the subject of a suit in the
superior court, in which A. X. Moro
poulas and others seek to secure the
return of valuable papers concerning
the island from Attorney Edmund
Burke of Los Angeles.
The case came up yesterday on de-
murrer by Burke, who declares the
facts set out by Moropoulas and his
associates are insufficient on which to
base a suit. The demurrer was over
ruled and the case will later be set for
trial.
Moropoulas, John H. Temple and w.
w. Jenkins say they have well
founded claim and title to Alcatraz ISL
and and that the United States holds 1t
without right. On December 5 they
employed Burke as their attorney and
agent to present their claims to the
government and to congress. The title
papers, they say, were turned over to
Burke to be used in the prosecution OF
the proceeding, but it was stipulated
they were to be returned within two
years. They declare the papers, which
are absolutely necessary to push the
case. have not been returned, and they
fear Burke will destroy them. The
plaintiffs also ask for damages in a
large sum.

SpeccI to The Herald.
VENICE, Feb. 14.-Plans have been
placed under way for the reception and
entertainment of the Atlantic squad
ron upon the arrival Of the fleet to
Santa Monica bay. Wednesday night
of next week a meeting of the repre-
sentative business men of Santa Mon
lea, Ocean Park and Venice will be
held at the ship Cabrillo. The session
will be called at $50 o'clock and ban
quet will precede the business meeting
One of the principal questions to be
taken up by the men will be the de-
visement in a general way of plans for
the entertainment of the visiting Of
ficers and sailors of the several battle
ships and cruisers which are to be an
chored in the local bay.
A committee of fifty of the most
prominent business men of the entire
Santa Monica bay district will be Sc
lected, and to these men will be given
charge of all arrangements having to
do with providing a fitting program Of
events for the entertainment of the
visitors.

cilitate the handling of the large
crowds which will visit the beach for
the purpose o. BOARDING the vessels as
they lie at anchor. 1t is anticipated
that the Santa Monica bay will at

and the convenient car service which
will be provided.
1t is estimated by many that not less
than 10000 visitors will be entertained
here in a day and in the enlarging Of
the Venice pier landing it is stated that
number may be readily and easily cared
for. Plans already have been drawn
for the construction of the proposed
landing and have been approved by
the Abbot Kinney company. The esti-
mated cost of the improvement is $4,000.
