HOPE TO SOLVE PROBLEM
OF UNEMPLOYED BY GOVT
EMPLOYMENT AGENCIES

London, Feb. 4.-England's new
system of labor exchange, by which
it is hoped greatly to ameliorate the
country's menacing problem OF unem-
ployment, were put in operation to-
day for the first time.
Exchanges were opened in various
places throughout England and 50
much is expected of them that the
press generally refers to the move
ment as an epoch in England's in
dustrial life.
The exchanges will try to bring the
job and the jobless together. Every
exchange is provided with record,
prepared with unusual care. of the
firms and Industrial plants in Eng
land where employees are needed, and,
also, of the number and location of
the unemployed in England, with
their peculiar fitness to certain kinds
of employment.
The scheme marks the first organ
lied attempt in England, to solve the
question of providing work for the
thousands who are idle. The ex-
changes are counted on to save the
unemployed the expense of searching
for work where it is already known
that. no work exists.
The exchanges will pay the cost Of
transportation to the fields of employ.

PER|LS OF WORKERS
DAILY GRIND TO Be
SUBJECT OF EXPERT

An illustrated address on the sub
ject of Industrial Safety and the
Prevention of Accidents will be given
by DR.. w. H. Tolman, director of the
Museum of Safety and Sanitation of
New York at Columbia hall, corner
Goth avenue west and Superior street,
on next Friday evening. Feb. 18th.
Union men and their friends are
earnestly urged to be present.
DR.. Tolman estimates that the loss
in cash to the wealth Of the United
States, through preventable accidents
in various industries, reaches $685.
100000 a year. The Museum Of
Safety and Sanitation is demonstrate
ing that this can be saved at a mod
crate cost of insurance. expenditure
for prevention.
Dr. Tolman has recently returned
from a study of the museums of
safety at Budapest, Paris, Munich,
Berlin and Vienna. These will be de-
scribed in his presentation, showing
how these institutions in Germany
furnish means of saving annually
$250,0OO,000 of Wage-earning eff
cheney, which would otherwise be
lost. The Dutch parliament is about
to introduce bill apropriating the
money for building, and the city Of
Amsterdam has given the site for a
museum.
The scope and object of the. New
York museum will be described and
illustrations drawn from the United
States Steel corporation, which has
a committee of safety for the express
purpose of minimizing accidents and
their effects. One of the newer meth
DDS is the standardization of safety
devices in it's various plants. In con-
clusion. DR.. Tolman will show how
this new life-saving station can be in
strumental in conserving the lives
and limbs of the workers, through
lessening the risks in labor and pre-
venting the effects of occupational
diseases. The lecture will be visual
lied by lantern photographs showing
the very latest phases of the subject.
Every employer and employe should
be interested in the presentation of
this important subject.

Tramping trips are the fad this sea

of young women are starting out afoot.
There is usually some definite object in
view of such trip, and the trip IS call

famous person. or to some designated

is made afoot, stops along the way for
meals and for sleeping being in order,
and sometimes the destination once
reached the pilgrimage homeward is
made by train.

flexible and low heeled boots should be

Peculiar Suit for Damages Arises
Out of a Very Peculiar
Operation.

A remarkable law case is arousing
great deal Of public interest i'll Con
stantinople, the facts which have given
rise to the action dating back to the
palmv DAYS eff Sultan Abdul Hamid.
According 10 the statements now
made. while the ex-suItan was still in
power one of his favorite daughters
was found to be suffering with APP
pendicitis, and an operation was de-
clared to be imperative. The sultan,
however, was unwilling to intrust his
daughter to the mercy Of his physicians
and surgeons in such an extremity
without first assuring himself of their
ability to perform the operation sue
cessfullv. and he accordingly demand
ed that they should operate first, IN
his presence. on someone else.
Seeing that his majesty was obdurate
the doctors promptly went in search Of
victim. and finding at the Italian
hospital young girl, Josefa Schneider,
who had Just been discharged after an
Illness. thew drove her off to the I'M
perial palace. despite her objections,
and carried her into a room specially
prepared for the operation and remoV-
ed the appendix, the sultan calmly
watching the proceedings. The opera
ton proved quite successful and the
patient recovered and was sent home.
Satisfied that the doctors knew their
business the sultan then permitted them
to operate on his daughter, who also
recovered and was completely cured.
Josefa Schneider is now suing the
doctors concerned for damages.-Cln-

that training as q soldier which stood
him in such good stead when he took
up arms with the Servians against the
