wOman's convention held up to that
ltime-the International Council Of
Women which met in Washington D.

men, national in character. were rep
resented on the platform by eighty
speakers and forty-nine delegates
from England, Ireland, France. Nor
way, Denmark. Finland. India, Can
ada, and the United States.
THE Seneca Falls meeting, said
Mrs. Anna G. Spencer, was a We
mans Rights Meeting; and only in
cidentally and with hesitation
pledged itself to demand for the
ballot: its chief stress being lai1
upon higher education for women,
better industrial conditions, more
just professional opportunity for
qualified women and larger social
freedom; together with a strong ap-
peal for the legal right of adult wO-
men to have and to hold property
and to secure that contract power"
that makes the dividing line between
responsible person and child or
an imbecile. The political demOc-
racy fought for in the eighteenth
century and partially obtained, led to

HALL RECENTLY DAMAGED BY
FIRE, WHICH WHEN CONFLICT.

SOME APPEARANCE.

From all appearances the new Union
hall will be perfect beauty when 1t
is completed. The decorators are now
on the finishing touches of the rooms
and everything is being gotten in
readiness for the formal opening of
the rooms.
The back main hall is exceedingly
nice on account OF the large amount
of light that floods the room. The
ceiling Is finished in beautiful cream
white and the side walls are decor
ated with very light green down to
the wainscoating. The remainder of
the walls to the footboard is finished
in dark green and the effect is an
admirable one. A pretty tint of gold
makes 8 most effective border dec
grafton.
The library is also being worked
over and there is not an iota left I'M
done to make it handsome. The dec
orators are preserving the same form
here as in other parts of the floor.
/, The front hall is also completely
worked over and although smaller than
the main auditorium it will be almost
as pretty as the larger one when
1t Is finished
The kitchen is being finished in
chocolate brown. The dining room has
a similar coat OF paint and both rooms
are perfectly clean and sanitary in
every respect.

COMPENSATION
FOR WORKMEN

In Missouri voluntary commission,
composed of some thirty or more of
its leading officials, business men and
prominent ladies and gentlemen in So
cial life. has been investigating the
subject of compensation to workmen
injured in the line of their employ
ment. The commission states IN its
report to the governor that it has not
had sufficient time to make its inves-
tigation of the problems involved In
it's inquiry as thorough and exhaust
i've as the case requires as a basis
for complete and satisfactory law to
control the matter.
Wants Protection at Once.
Governor HadIey appreciates the
work of the commission and commends
it highly But he sees no necessity for
further delay in providing some meas
.ure of relief from the hazards and
hardships workmen suffer and the
gross injustice often melted out to
them by the courts when they seek
to get compensation for their injur-
les. He believes in giving ample pro-
lection to human life engaged in the

Masonic Doines.

The spring reunion of the Scottish
Rite bodies OF this city has been held
this week. The class was a. small one
and the attendance was far from sat
isfactory as far as the local members
of the order were concerned, but Ii is
probable that the work was never pre-
scented in better shape: fifteen degrees
were put on in full form, with nearly
all the ritual perfectly committed; the
great pipe organ. the fine vocal pro-
grammes, the appropriate stage set
tings, the new apartments with their
paraphernalia, and the earnestness of
the workers all added to the impression
made on the class. 1t was an event
which will be long remembered by all
who were present. The next reunion
will be held In June, and already petit
tions are being received for the same.
Al telegram was received yesterday
announcing the death of Judge Harper
S. Cunningham, inspector general Of
the Scottish Rite for New Mexico,
which occurred Friday morning at the
home Of HIS daughter in southern Cali
fornla. Judge Cunningham was an
able man, a prominent Mason, and
long resided in Oklahoma, wh@e he
held the same position as he later oc-
cupied In New Mexico, He was also
at one time resident OF the same city
in Kansas as Hon. w. A. Scott of this
city. His death win be greatly lament
ed by all who knew him.

IS FAVORABLE TO
union LABOR

After severe struggle, the national
house of representatives has passed
the naval appropriation bill for the
coming fiscal year with a proviso in
it that is decidedly favorable to or
gained labor. The proviso definitely
establishes the eight-hour day for
construction work on all boats built
for the use of the government, wheth-
err the. same be built in government
navy yards or the ship building plants
of private persons or corporations.
The amendment containing this pro-
viso was offered by Congressman
Hughes of New Jersey, who seems to
be sincerely friendly to the labor
movement, and is as follows: PRO
vided, that no part of this appropria-
tion shall be expended for the con-
struction Of any boat by any person,
firm or corporation which has not at
the time Of the commencement and
construction of said vessel established
an eight-hour working day for all en-
ployes, laborers and mechanics, en-
gagged or to be engaged in the con-
struction of the vessels named here
in"
The secretary of the navy, by his
course of determined and unceasing
opposition to the amendment, made It
manifest to the labor legislative com
mittees that he voiced the fear of the
great corporations. They might have
consented to the eight-hour day on
purely governmental work, but they
realized that if this president should
be once established it would certainly
a feaat THAR Ouu vast pIanta in which
cheap labor at unlimited hours had
been coming millions for them. The
number of men affected by the amend
ment If it should pass the senate will
be about $4,000 most of whom have
been working at least ten hours a
day.

industries OF the state, and he de-
mands that this protection be provided
at once. The salient points OF the
changes In the laws which he recon-
mends are the abrogation or the de-
lenses of assumption of risk, the fell
low-servant rule and the doctrine Of
contributory negligence where the last
constitutes a bar to the recovery Of
damages. He also favors the enact
ment into state laws of the provisions
OF the federal statute governing en-
ployes Of common carriers in suits for
injuries.
