the entertainment:
AT Chickering Hall last evening
MIR. Folk Miller and his cuartette of
negroes appeared for the first time In
public in Boston, although had already
been heard here at private residences
and clubs. The entertainment, which
is called "Old Times Down South"
is not like anything in the amusement
line which has been given here before
The negro quartette is not composed
of trained singers, but of men whom
Mr.. Miller selected because they could
sing. Their singing was most enjoy
able. The youngest one had strong
bass voice which he used TO good ad-
vantage and it was a treat to watch
the Oldest of the quartette who had
the swing and the shout of the old
time negro. Some of the songs, es-
pecially old Dan Tucker and 'Suwa-
nee River given with the cadence and
peculiar intonation of the plantation
blacks, were revelations to those who
had only heard such pieces rendered
in a conventional style. The whole
entertainment was simply delightful" ;"

COMMITTEE SURPRISED
BY ACTION OF BARNES

NEW YORK, Oct. 12.-The resigna-
ton of William Barnes, jr, the "Old
Guard" leader, from the state commit
tee was the big event in Republican
circles here today. State Chairman
Prentice and Henry L. Stimson, the
nominee for governor, acknowledged
that the Albany's committeeman
action was a surprise.
Immediately after receiving Mr..
Barnes letter Of resignation, saying
that the failure to reappoint him on
the executive committee indicated
either that his services were no longer
useful or that he was "faithless to
the Republican ticket" Chairman
Prentice issued a statement disclaim-
ing both these suppositions.
Mr.. Prentice remarked that Mr..
Barnes was not the only former mem
ber of the executive committee who
was not reappointed and named four
others who had been retired.
United States Senator Root declined
to say what he thought of Barnes
step.

WILL ASK UNIFORMITY
OF COMPENSATION LAWS
National Civic Federation Plans
to Fix Employers LiabiI-
ity for Accidents

NEW YORK, Oct. 1.-THE legal COM
mittee of the National Civic Fedora
tion, which has been at work for some
| time drafting a compensation plan for
uniform state legislation as a substi-
tute for the present Industrial liberty
laws, announces it will soon submit its
plan to the commissioners on uniform
state laws, in the forty-six states and
territories, and to the committee on
compensation appointed by the Ameri
can Bar association, as well as to the
executive committee of the various as
sociations to obtain their opinion upon
its constitutionality in their respective
states.
The federation's committee has been
at work under the direction Of the COM
pensation department of the federation
which is composed of employers, labor
men, attorneys who have given special
consideration to the subject, insurance
experts, economists, state officials,
members of state compensation com
missions and others, representing in
all thirty-five states.
1t is hoped by thus giving all in
terests a hearing, to reduce to the
minimum opposition to bill which
will be prepared for uniform legisla-
tion in all states.
In explaining the scope Of the bill
now being considered by the commit
tee the chairman, P. T. Sherman, says
in a statement today:
BASED ON ENGLISH LAW
"The foundation for the plan en-
bodied in the tentative draft of the bill
is the English compensation laws. The
continental laws may be better in some
respects, but they are not so easily
adapted to our industrial conditions
here.
"The English laws, as a basis, fur
nish the easiest path by which we in
America can make the beginning to
compensate worIanen for accidents,
The English law has extended liability
for compensation practically to all en-
ployments As a first step we have
suggested that we go only half way.
According to the scheme, the en-
ployer will be liable for practically
every accident, regardless Of the ques-
tion of negligence, except where the
employe has been guilty of deliberate
self-injury, or refusing, or falling de-
liberately to use a guard for machinery
or a few other cases such as that. On
the other hand, the employer would be
freed from all liability for damages;
that is, for unlimited damages, as If
for a fault or wrong or negligence. In
other words, negligence Of a fellow
servant or anyone else could not be
imputed to the employer, but in such
cases the employer would be liabe for
compensation.
"The bill would permit of voluntary
schemes Of compensation between the
employer and employe as an alterna-
tive 10 the legal liability.
"Amounts of compensation have been
tentatively named in this draft of bill
which, however, are subject to revision
by the special committee now esti-
mating the cost of substituting com
ponsation for the present liability
laws"
