The Workmens Compensation
Act. In which certain rules Of pay
ment and the amount of compensa
ton for injuries to employees while
working for a corporation, are laid
down, goes into effect today. The
law is designed to do away with the
lawsuits and legal tangles often re-
sulting to employees and assure:
both employee and employer a rea.
sonable basis of settlement.
The provisions of the act, as get
forth in notification sent out yes

ly defined in a synopsis of the Is
sections of the act.

killed, shall get four times the ave.
age earnings of the deceased and
not less than $500 nor more than
$4,000. Where he leaves collateral
heirs their compensation is to be APP
portioned according to the percent
age OF his contributions to their
support. and if he leaves no heirs,
$3.50 shall be provided for burial ex-
penses
The same section provides that
the payments shall be made in in
stallments equal to one-half the
average earnings of the deceased and
at the same intervals as wages were
paid. The executors or admins
traitors of the estate are to collect
the moneys,
Injury Compensation.
Section 5 stipulates compensation
for injuries. providing that hospital
expenses and medical aid, to the
amount of 5000 for eight weeks,
shall be paid and the services of a
be provided during the
term Of disability.
Half wages beginning on the
eighth day or not less than IS nor
more than s12 a week shall be paid
up 10 the amount of the death bene-
fit; compensation for disfgurementg
to hands or face to be fixed by arbi-
-ration payment for complete dis
ability for eight years and then re-
duced payments during life; pay.
ment of a certain sum to heirs, where
death occurs before the amount of
the death benefit is paid and defn'-
tons of total disability are included
in section 5.
The other sections provide ways
and means of determining the extent
of injuries and causes of accidents
as we'll as other things provided for
by the law. 1t also provides for an
arbitration committee, wherever
there is a disagreement.

thoughts commenced 10 dwell on the
missing trumps. He concluded that. with

a VIOLATION OF ETIQUETTE.

We are asked about the rule of etiquette
that relates 10 a remark concerning the
holding by one player before the final dec
laration. The rules Of etiquette should be
much moro closely observed than even the
laws Of auction, for the reason that there
&c no penalty against an offence at the
etiquette Of the game, and Rule ? or the
rules Of etiquette should be strictly ad-
bered TO by players at all times. Re
marks during the bidding or play OF
hand. whether made facetiously or other
wise often contain valuable information
and a careless remark that the opponents
are making a bluff bid is as reprehensioic
as an opon remark concerning the definite
holding in any hand.
The only way TO remedy these faults Is
to insist upon technical construction OF
all remarks that tend to give lnlornld-
ton as to a players holding or as to his
pleasure or displeasure at play hld
