Scott. For more than 90 years that
drum has been in almost constant use
and Hendershott would not part with
it at any price. Hendershott was cap
tUred in 1862 in Tennessee, but was
exchanged and returned TO Detroit
where he re-enlisted and served as a
drummer until the close of the war.
Were 1t not for the bronze button
which he proudly wears, few persons
would suspect that Hendershott was
a veteran OF the civil war.
Labor Commissioner James Cunning
ham says that there is practically
no danger in Michigan OF a repetition
of the Binghamton fire where 81 EN-
ployes, mostly women and girls lost
Their lives when factory burned.
Cunningham says particular atten-
ton has been paid to factory inspec-
ton in Michigan and he claims that
nearly all the factories are well equip
ped with fire escapes. Detroit is eX-
ceptionally well provided for in this
regard according 10 Cunningham.
The new labor commissioner an
nnunced today that he would ask the
attorney general whether it is posi-
BILE to construe restaurant or tele-
phone Office as workshop. If the
attorney general holds that these
places may properly be called work
shops, Cunningham says that he will
start out to enfo-5e the 81 hour law
m re al
phone Offices, where it is claimed some
women and girls work as many as u
hours per week.
Within the next two weeks Cover
nor Ferris will name commission to
investigate the wages paid to the wo-
men workers of this state in compli-
ance with a resolution passed at the
last session of legislature.
Governor Ferris asked Attorney
! General Fellows whether the resolu-
ton was mandatory and whether. 1t
was absolutely necessary that he name
| the commission. Fellows declared
that there was nothing for the COVER
nor to do but follow out the provisions
OF the resolution.
The chief executive believes that
this work can better be accomplished
through the state labor commission.
| The special commission that he will
appoint must serve without compen-
sation and it is his contention that
the paid and trained workers of the
labor department are better able to
perform this werk
Governor Ferris will confer with the
stale board of corrections and char-
ties before naming the members of the
new commission.
AS the result Of an order issued by
| Brig. -Gen. p. L. Abbey, OF the Michi-
gan National Guard there will be uni
formity of training among the various
companies Of state militia after the
men return from their annual sum-
mer camp at Ludington and it is be-
liaved in state military circles that
, this order will result in a greatly in
I creased efficiency.
Heretofore, during the winter
months, some of the companies have
been devotng their time to rifle prac-
tice while others have gone in strong
for field drill and other phases Of ma
tional guard life. Under the new or
der of things the company comman-
ders will prepare a program and sub
NIT it to Capt. Radsdale, the regular
army officer detailed by the govern
ment to act as instructor for the
state troops.

ANHUT REFUSES TO PLEAD.
Indictment Charging Him With Bribery
Violates His Constitutional Right.

New York, April %. Attorney John
n Anhut yesterday pleaded that his
constitutional right had been violated
by the indictment charging him with
bribery in connection with an alleged
attempt to free Harry X. Thaw from
Matteawan hospital for the criminal in
sane. He held that his action in testi-
flying before Governor Suffers investi-
CATION commission had rendered him inn
mune from Indictment. On this ground
the attorney asked to have his arraign-
ment put over until he could move to
have the Indictment quashed, and when
this motion was denied he refused to
plead. Supreme Court Justice Seabury
directed that plea OF not guilty be
entered for him. and said that the ques-
ton OF Anhut's constitutional rights
would be left to the judge before whom
he will be tried.

"Kute Riddles" Appear in "The Rose
Maid Next Monday.

The "Kute Riddles" those four little
actresses, form one of the most inter
esting features of Werba & Luescher's
newest big musical success, "The Rose
Maid" They are said to be as jealous
of each other as grown-up prima donnas.
All through the little dance in The
Happy Family" song, they vie with each
other in their efforts to capture a bit of
individual applause, and woe unto the
"kiddie" that may win single atom
more than the others. Behind the scenes
and out of sight of the audience, she is
liable TO have a pretty bad time of it
with her sister "kiddies." Each of these
little tots is accompanied to and from
the theatre by a father or mother and
during their hours off stage, they study
their lessons and play going to school
so that on their return to New York,
they will be able to enter the same class
and grade to which they belong.
The "Kute Riddles" will form part
of the great cast that will appear in
