More Girls Needed.

eve want more girls here" he said
yesterday. I'VE have three now, but we
ought to have more. If this republic is
going to be a real republic, 1t ought to be
conducted like a grown-up country, and
every one knows what an uninteresting
country a republic without ladies would
be.
"Of course. we want money That is
the big thing, and after that we will have
growth here. We have done wonders in
the last year, and we are going to do
more"
Mr.. George paid a great many compli-
ments to Pop Mitchell. the head work
er at the republic. Guy Mitchell is his
real name, but the citizens Of the repub-
lie have given him a nickname.
The new Baldwin cottage. which was
thrown open to the visitors yesterday, Is

Bill to Retire Employees in the
Civil Service.
BENEFITS OF THE MEASURE
Representative Hamill of New Jer-
sey to Devote Time and e.
fort to Secure Adoption.
BENEFITS OF THE MEASURE

Representative James A. Ham1ll OF
the tenth New Jersey district intends to
do everything in his power to secure the
enactment Of legislation having for it's
object the retirement of superannuated
and disable employees of the civil serv-
ice. Mr.. Hamill Is the author of a bill
on this subject and has given a great
deal Of time and attention to the prin-
ciples involved in this proposition.
THE enactment into law of q measure
embodying the principles involved in my
measure" Mr.. Hamill says, would
place our great government in line with
the best thought Of the present day on
the subject of approximation as prac-
ticed for years by the principal govern
ments Of Europe, by many Of the mu-
inequalities of this country and by our
great Industrial and railroad interests.
Custom in Other Countries.
Germany has retired its civil en-
ployes on this basis for one hundred years
and England for fifty years. One-third
Of the municipalities in the United States
now provide outright for the pensioning
of police. f1remen and school teachers.
During the Last decade there has been
an increasing tendency on the part Of our
city and state governments as we'll as
public service corporations and industrial
establishments to provide for the retire
ment of superannuated and disabled en-
ployes.
Fifty per cent Of the men now en-
ployed upon the railroads OF our coun-
try are pensioned after faithful service
without reduction from their salaries.
The International Harvester Company.
with $4,000 employees, provides annuity
without contribution from salary to every
employe who has reached the age Of sixty
five after having served twenty years or
more. twenty-five Of the leading rail-
roads Of the country maintain pension
funds without cost to the employees.
Among them are the Pennsylvania and
its branches. New York Central, New
York. New Haven and Hartford. South
ern Pacific. Union Pacific, Delaware,
Lackawanna and Western and Baltimore
and Ohio. Other industrial and me-
chanical concerns providing in this man
ner are the United States Steel Corpora
ton, with q retirement fund OF $4,000
600; Edison Electric Light Company. Old
Dominion Steamship Company, Bank of

Election Of Officers.
VISITORS MAKE INSPECTION

Every young citizen OF the National
Junior Republic, situated on the Willie
Newbold farm near Annapolis juno
ton. Nd, was dressed in his best suit
OF clothes yesterday to do honor to
the ladies and gentlemen who invaded
the boundaries Of the juvenile country
to attend the meetings Of the trustees
and managers held there. It was hey
day in the boys republic, and no mis-
take. Every citizen, from President
Freddie Kohmer down to the angel
faced prisoner who had been sentenced
to Jail for q few days for some in
fraction of the republics police regu-
lations had been scrubbed. to the high
est degree Of cleanliness, each had
ready to escort any interested visitor
around the place.
Republics Resources.
The natural resources Of the repub-
lie were thrown open to the gaze Of
foreigners" from Washington and
Baltimore. The pigs. the chickens. the
corn field and the potato patch, to say
nothing Of the gymnasium and the
new Baldwin cottage, were all on view,
and as the editor Of the National Ju-
NOR Republics monthly newspaper
would say in type, "a good time was
had by ALL"
One of the features Of the day was the
presence of William R George, who
founded the great boy republic at Free
Vile. N. Y. and is known up there as
Daddy George" He talked to the men,
bers Of the board of trustees and his
speech was so full Of enthusiasm that the
people who heard him say that the An
napolis Junction republic will be the
gamer In an untold degree. Mr.. George.
who Is believed to know more about boys
and boys republics than any other man,
wants to introduce a sort Of juvenile
woman's suffrage at the National Junior
Republic, although there are some Of the
trustees who frown at the suggestion.

What the Bill Provides.

Mr.. Hamin explained to Star re-
porter that his bill provides for the re-
tirement Of faithful employees who be-
come incapacitated while still in the serv-
ice. by allowing them Just and reason
able compensation for the years they
have served, and make the full period Of
service before being eligible for retire
ment thirty years, or on reaching the
age Of sixty fair and equitable alike to
the government and to the employees.
1T is founded continued Mr.. Ham,
i'll, ION principles of sound justice and
broad humanitarianism. AS a business
proposition retirement on these lines is
Endorsed by the financial officers of every
institution which has put it to the test
Although the cry Of cost is raised. 1t is
readily proved that 1t is in the end less
expensive than q compulsory contributory
plan, with its added measure to increase
all salaries.
But where justice is concerned the cry
Of cost should not be raised. If it were.
our country would be still q dependency
Of Great Britain and the Declaration of
Independence would have never been
written

TYNDALL AND FINN
 WIN CASE

A decision has been handed down by the appellate court at San Fran else, affirming the findings of the lower court in the cause of Belsea ys Tyndall X Finn. The case is important ill that il has established q precedent in arriving at conclu- sion tf law interpretation as applied To mining contracts.
 The original case was in favor of the defendants. the laymen. but an appeal was taken on the ground that 1he court erred in instructing the july in matters of fact, instead of c5uiining his instructions to points of law.
 The question of pay dirt, and the questi, of methods of mining. were involved in the decision. one of the points being as to whether it was possible for layman to mine the ground ac rding to the terms of the contract. and at the same time in minerlike manner. or whether by mining in a miner-like manner they fulfilled the terms of the con tract. even if the literal requirements were not adhered to.
 II was contended by the plaintiffs that the defendants had not compiled with the terms of the contract in that they had not removed all Of the pay dirt" and special reference was made to a certain natural bulkhead that was left between blocks one and two for the purpose of keeping out the water of Ester creek; that it | Il of the contract The defendants showed that il was absolutely necessary 10 leave such dirt and cOntended that il was miner-like 10 leave it. They also furnished evidence to show that 1t was miner-like to leave pill lars fir the support of the overhead earth as the work progressed plo- vided these pillars were removed before the defendants left the claim.
 Following is Judge Lyons ruling as to what constitutes pay dirt. this being against the plaintiff.
 Pay dirt" said Judge Lyons, is such a stratum of gcldbearing earth and gravel that the defendants. using approved methods in the vicinity of the mine, could remove it at profit over and above the necessary eX- pense of extracting the same. That is to say. pay dirt as low as two cents to the pan did not mean all the dirt in the mine averaging two cents to the pan, but all the dirt which it would pay to mine as low as two cents per pan through the employment of miner-like methods. :"
 The decision of the circuit court was delivered by Judge Morrow, on September ,. and sustained the rul- ings of Judge Lyons.
 Stevens. Roth X Dignan handled the case for the plaintiff and Wick ersham X Heilig represented the de fendants.
 The case had been pending for two years and in the meantime the dumps on No. Ester creek, which is the ground involved in the litiga- tion. had become covered with weeds and other vegetation. The laymen since receiving the courts decision are at work trying to sluice up a part Cf the fortune contained in them
