Massrs. Lang, Beattie, Hammctt
Geer and Summers, committee rep
resenting the South Carolina Cotton
Manufacturers, We're present request
ing to be heard and We're invited to ap-
pear before the child labor committee
for the purpose of presenting the point
of view of the mill owners regarding
child labor conditions in the State and
the practicability Of amendments tc
the present child labor law.
After the representatives of the
manufacturers retired, the committee
adopted the following resolutions:
Resolved, Th3t any reference to the
raising of the ago limit be stricken
out of our child labor bill to be sub
mitted to the general assembly at the
coming session.
Resolved, That the South Carolina
child labor committee places itself on
record as favoring a gradual rise OF
the age limit to Il years as soon as
in the opinion of the committee, the
conditions are favorable.
Resolved, That a copy of these pro-
ceedings be sent to the newspapers OF
the State with the request that they be
published with editorial comment, to
the end that public sentiment in behalf
of child labor reform be created.
The action of the committee today
results in a somewhat altered leg5sla-
tive programme. That is to say the
general assembly will be asked to pass
two bills.
A bill amending the present law
by repeating the poverty exemption
and prohibiting the night work OF
children under sixteen.
A bill to provide for the registration
of birth and marriages. No effort
will be made by the child labor com
mittee for the present to secure an in
crease in the age limit. The cotton
mill people want a compulsory educa-
ton law before any other legislation
is undertaken relative to the child
rem in the mill communities.

WESTON WELCOMED

Noted Pedestrian Many Hours Ahead

countered

FLAGSTAFF, A. T.. Feb. 19.-Weston
arrived here at s o'clock this morning
from Bellemont, a small station twelve
miles west, where he spent the night
He was met by a large number Of peo-
pie, including many women. He stop
ped here twenty-five minutes to eat,
ordering hot cakes.
Weston is now two days ahead of his
schedule. He expressed horror upon
learning of the tragic death of Fred
Cooley, Western Union construction
foreman, with whom he stayed all
night two weeks ago at Bengal, Cal
Cooley was accidentally killed here
yesterday while at his work. Upon be-
ing congratulated at being in advance
of his schedule, Weston stated that in
his journey from Williams to Grand
canyon he was for ten hours directly
facing a terrible gale, with no stop
ping place along the road and nothing
to eat until he reached Grand canyon
At El ToVar hotel he was given a
royal welcome by the fashionable
guests, who listened eagerly to his
fered to drive him to several points of
interest nearby, but Weston declined,
saying that under no circumstances
would he step on anything that moves.
Weston thinks that if he can be in
advance of his schedule in the high al
titude of Northern Arizona he can
easily gain several days when he
reaches a level country.

he is handling the bantam champion
justifies their good opinion of him.
Fort johnson seems to be getting
good again. He won the feature event
at Emeryville from as classy a field
as any that has faced the barrier in
the north this season, barring the
presence of Boggs, and he trimmed
them handily. Like all bleeders, how
ever, he is not a reliable horse and
therefore is most unsatisfactory as a
racing tool for the public to bet upon.
Frank Fickert says he had so much
hard luck yesterday that he believes it
broke his long string. The day began
with rain, which hurt business. Then
a Downey avenue car kicked one of
his automobiles half way across Broad
way and put 1t out of commission for
two or three days. Not to be salts
fed with it's unkind workings for one
day, fate handed him another back
handed compliment in the form of an
obliging friend who touched him for a
loan big enough to float a wildcat min
ing scheme, and Frank turned his
dough loose without taking even an
l. o. u, so impressed was he tenn
porarily with the urgency Of the rush
act. Now he is looking for a competent
guardian or something guaranteed to
assassinate a hoodoo.
Tuesday will be the busiest Wash
ington's birthday in the history of
sports on the coast. Here at home
there will be the 45-round fight at Ver-
non, the Los Angeles Mara
thon race, a big track meet at Occi-
dental, harness racing at Agricultural
park, an afternoon of harness and run
ming races at Pasadena, the windup of
the Long Beach tennis tournament and
about half a hundred baseball games
Frisco will come through with sim
liar card, headed by the Nelson VOL
gast fight. Farther away, at Cheyenne,
Sam Langford and Nat Dewey will
travel the long distance in the ring.
Little Lord Fauntleroy, whose air
ship Photographic enterprise netted him
800 for three weeks hustling in Frisco,
is tryting to find another aviation meet
somewhere in the United States where
he can ship his old remnants of fly
ing machine and try it again. The lord
is too good a fellow not to hit the
right trail soon, and when it does,
what lot of dust he will kick up.
May it be sooned than that, lord.

Jack Ripper, Gil Mead, Lon Hill, Jim
Jeffries and a few other good sports
men who are having fine old time up
in McCarthy's town. All the bunch will
be back at home by Wednesday or
Thursday, but a heap of their pros
perity depends largely upon the name
of the winner of the Nelson Wolgast
fight Tuesday afternoon. They will be
there and see how it was they won or
lost and each will have a different ex-
cuse or a finer explanation of "this-is-

FIX SCHEDULE
FOR SEASON
NATIONAL LEAGUERS FINALLY
GET TOGETHER
Shorter Series of 154 Games Wins, but
Playing Time Is Slated to
Expire the 18th of
October
TAssociated 4 Press1

NEW YORK, Feb. 19.-The National
league last night adopted a playing
schedule calling for 154 games for the
coming season, but it was accomplished
only after a majority Of the magnates
had expressed their opinion that news
paper criticism over the delay was
causing unfavorable publicity.
Though wishes of the American
league for a 154-game schedule were
met, that leagues interests were disre-
garded when it was resolved to stretch
the schedule out to October Is. The
American league schedule terminates
on October 9, although all league con-
tracts with players call for service until
October 10.
Ebbets of Brooklyn and Murphy of
Chicago insisted on using their players
up to the contract time.
Barney Dreyfus of Pittsburg was
the only magnate willing to make con-
cessions, and he saved the league from
what seemed to be a hopeless deadlock
Pittsburg was scheduled for six Sun
day games in Cincinnati, where there
is no opposition and where such dates
have been exceptionally remunerative.
ST. Louis was scheduled for six Sun
day games in Chicago, and four OF
these were when the champion Detroits
of the American league were to play
Chicago. st. Louis and Chicago OBJ
jected, holding that Detroit would draw
big crowds
Then Barney Dreyfus, with his
world champions, stepped in and of
fered to take three of the st. Louis
conflicting dates. The matter was set
tied today by changing st. Louis to
Cincinnati and Pittsburg to Chicago,
so that in Chicago it will be seen
whether Pittsburg or Detroit is the
more popular.
Following the adoption of the sched-
ule tonight the board of directors met
to consider the claim of former Man
ager w. H. Murray of the Philadelphia
club for two years salary on his con-
tract.
After a two-hour session the board
decided that it had jurisdiction of the
Murray case, and accordingly notified
the Philadelphia club that it must eX-
plain within fifteen days why Muir
rays contract was broken. The an
swer of the club will be sent to Presi-
dent Lynch, who will forward a copy
to each director. 1t will then be de-
cided whether another meeting of the
board shall be called or whether the
case shall be finally adjudlcated by
mail vote.
The league members tomorrow will
continue the consideration of the pro-
posed constitutional changes.

A CCORDING to Jack Ripper. this
II will be the final day of stay in
- Frisco for the Jeffries party, 1t
| being planned for them to leave tonight
for Los Angeles, but it is not necessary
for anybody to get angry if the big boy
fails to arrive until Wednesday or
Thursday. All of them are more or
less interested in the Battling Nelson
Ad Wolgast fight that is to be staged
at Richmond the afternoon of Wash
ington's birthday, and while they are
| in the northern city they probably will
hang around until the big scrap is
over. BY the way, there will be quite
| a sprinkling of Los Angeles sportsmen
in the Nelson Wolgast crowd, as a
small delegation went north last week
to stay for the fight, and they will have
more company, as others have gone
| north singly and in small parties with
in a week. Practically all the money
that the southern sportsmen bet on the
fight will be strung with the Wolgast
hopes, although most of it will be
wagered on the proposition that VOL
CAST will stay twenty-five rounds.
Judge Nagle, one of the premier
twirlers on Hen Berrys Angelic staff,
is about town with good news. He says
that this spring he will be able to play
in the White Sox series for the first
time in a long time. He is in better
health and condition than at any time
since he began playing professional
ball, and he says he will be very much
| in the game all season. This is fine
news for the fans, as Nagle is one of
| the best all-round players in the Coast
| league and is as good a pitcher as he
is fielder.
Happiness Hogan announced last
night that the name of his new third
baseman is John H. Burrell. This
youngster has been playing in class A
company for several years, yet is not
an old hand or castoff. He began
with Baltimore in 1907, went to Roches-
ter in 1908, was drafted by San Fran
cisco that year, but failed to report
owing to sickness, and was loaned to
Utica, of the New York State ueague,
last year. Hogan got him by purchase
from Frisco, which club still held his
contract services. The purchase price
is private, but Hogan said it was a
strictly cash transaction. Burrell
played in 129 games last season, and
his club finished second. He filed the
third base job with fielding average
of 1886, finishing second in the list. He
batted in the same number of games
at a .236 clip. He was regarded as the
premier thirdsacker of the league.
Nick Lewis, the little fellow who is
training frankie Conley for his fight
with Monte Attell, is one of the young
est trainers in the business, but, ac-
cording to Manager Laga and other
observing ones, he is one of the best on
the job anywhere. The manner in which
