FIGHT FILMS
CAUSES
RIOT

PHILADELPHIA, July 22.-
Nixon and Zimmerman, lessees of
the Forest theater, have had
enough of the Jeffries-Johnson
fight pictures to last them the rest
of their lives. Regardless of
what others do Nixon and Zim-
norman will leave the pictures Sc
yerely alone.
Their effort to show the films
last night nearly caused a riot.
After the theater had been filled
with an eager audience, the own
ers of the building informed
Nixon and Zimerman that they
were violating the provisions OF
the lease by exhibiting the pic
lures.
When it was announced that
there would be no pictures, the
audience protested and almost
mobbed the box office in it's haste
TO collect ticket money.

Strike Is
Settled

(By United Press Leased Wire
NEWCASTLE, Eng, July 22.-
Trains on the Northeastern rail-
road are running again today and
the great strike which tied up a
large part of England and spread
to Scotland, throwing thousands
of men out of work, is over.
Factories and mills closed down
because of their inability to get
coal and handle freight, are grad
ually reopening. Mines which
closed down because the mined
coal could not be shipped away
will open as soon as the railroad
can take away the excess at the
mines. In few days things will
be running normally again.
The railroad today is congested
with freight which FOR two DAYS
has been accommodating in the
railroad yards. Passenger traffic
is being handled as usual.

HEAR RESULT NEXT YEAR
Draft of q Liability and Conn
pensation Bill to Be Sub
IS mitted to Legislature.

Almost the entire attention of the
convention of the State Federation
Of Labor was devoted to hearing re-
ports of the various committee chair
men on resolutions. The most i'm
Portant one passed was that submit
ted by the committee on officers
reports. 1t had to do with the en-
ployers' liability law and the posi-
lion taken by President E. R. Wright
IN regard to the matter. The reso-
luton which was presented was un-
animously adopted, and is as fol-
lows.
I'VE have carefully considered the
annual report Of President Edwin R.
Wright and Secretary ]. F. Morris,
and wish to commend them for their
conscientious and businesslike man
ner IN which. they have conducted the
affairs Of the organization, resulting
In steady growth IN membership
and increase in power and prestige of
labor throughout the state.
1--WE concur in the recommended
tion of President Wright that the la
Dor department of the state of IlIi-
nois be properly systematized and
urge that efforts be made to bring
about desired reform.
I'VE endorse the action of Presi-
Hent Wright in his attempt to have
drafted and enacted into law an en-
ployers' liability and workers com
pensation act. We concur in the
position assumed by him as set
forth in his report, dealing with var
ious features of such a bill.
1--WE further recommend that a
committee be elected or appointed by
this convention to decide upon an
adequate and comprehensive liabil-
ity and compensation bill. which
when drafted shall be submitted for
ratification or rejection to the various
organizations and if endorsed by the
majority of them shall be presented
to the next general assembly and its
enactment earnestly urged by or

CATARRH SUFFERERS
Good Thing to Know.

If you now own a Hyomei hard
rubber inhaler the Harper House
pharmacy wants you TO know that
they will sell you a bottle of HYO-
MEL for only so cents.
Remember this, all who suffer
with catarrh-a bottle of HYOMEI
pronounce it High-o-me) is put up
in a separate package and sold for
so cents, to accommodate the vast
army of people who already own a
Hyomei inhaler.
The Harper House pharmacy will
sell it to you at that price and give
you the opportunity to begin at once
to rid yourself of vile catarrh and
the snuffing, hawking and splitting
that go with it.
Many people through years of
neglect have let catarrh get a strong
hold upon them. Some of these peO-
pie unreasOnabIy think that one bot
tie of HyOMEI ought to cure them.
No matter how chronic your ca
tarrhal troubles, HYOMEI is guar
anteed by the Harper House phar-
macy to cure them if you give it
half a chance. Just breathe it, that's
all, and its healing, soothing, anti
septic properties will make you feel
better in a day.
If you own an inhaler, get a so
cent bottle of HLOMEI today. 1t
you do not own a Hyomei inhaler,
ask for $1.OO outfit, which includes
inhaler.
