BY KINGS ORDER
PALACE GUARDED
ON MILITANTS

London. Feb. 21-Because Miss Mary
Phelps Jacob, a New York debutant,
was to be presented at court tonight,
the American colony in London was
tremendously interested in suffra-
gettes, today. By order of King
were planned to guard Buckingham
Palace against the nilitants during
the function.
Scotland Yard men were on duty all
day before the palace, in addition to
the regular military guardsmen and
every avenue of approach under the
most rigid surveillance.
The guests at the court will be mer-
cilessIy inspected by guards and de-
tectives and compelled to submit to
positive Identification Perhaps in no
time Of national stress was a British
court held under such espionage as
will be tonight's affair.
The Kings Council, attached to the
home office, were, today, trying to
find a charge on which they could ar
rest Mrs. Emme1ine Pankhurst BY
order of Home Secretary McKenna,
the lawyers were SubJect1ng to the
closest analysis Mrs. Pankhurst's de-
she boosted that she was willing to
assume all responsibility for the re-
cent bomb explosion that wrecked
Lloyd Georges new country home.
1t is expected that if the legal au-
thorities decide Mrs. Pankhurst's
statements can be held proof that
she Ldd any 10 10 Will Inc OO11O
outrage she will be arrested.
By the Kings suggestion all unoc-
cupied royal palaces We're under heavy
guard. No one was allowed to ap-
proach Windsor Sandringhan, Bal
moral and York cottage, Hol1yroyd
Castle was vigi1antly watched and
Kew Gardens were picketed by Scot
land Yard men.
In the London Sessions Court today
five suffraget whose trials had been
deferred Since the night the franchise
reform bill was withdrawn were sen
fenced to prison for from four to six
months each, for window smashing.

Dyspepsia Creates
Queer Sensations
To Get Rid of That B1oatel, inflated
Stomach Pressure Use StuaIt's
Dyspepsia Tablets After Eating

Ever meet that sad-eyed man who
tells you the earth is lettering on it's
axis? He's a dyspeptic- If he is not
too far removed from advice and
argument induce him to use Stuart's
Dyspepsia Tablets for a few days.
Watch the change. He will now ap-
preciate a funny story; he will go so
far as to admit that some cooks are
better than others; he will even accept
an invitation to a banquet.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets contain
nothing but natural elements neces-
sary to digestion, and when placed at
work in the weak stomach and small
intestines, supply what these organs
need. They stimulate the gastric
glands and gradually bring the diges-
tive organs back to their normal CON
dition.
There is no secret in the prepara-
ton of Stuart's Dyspepsia, Tablets
They are the most popular of all
remedies for indigestion, dyspepsia,
water brash, insomnia, loss of APP
petite. ne1ancohlia, constipation, dy-
sentery and other kindred diseases
originating from improper dissolution
and assimilation of foods, because
they are thoroughly reliable, and
harmless to man or child.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are at
once a safe and a powerful remedy,
they will digest your food for you
when your stomach can't.

FEDERATION BILL

Based on the experience of Ohio,
upon the law ofswhich the Federation
of Labor bill is modelled, only a few
employers will elect the compensa-
per cent of the workmen in the State
will be covered.
Offers no pecuniary return to en-
ployers installing expensive safety de-
vices, or using other effective means
to avoid accidents. Imposes no pen
atty on workmen injured by their will
full failure to use safety devices pro-
v1dedr Contains no other provision
for prevention of accident
Places no obligation on anyone to
see that proper medical attention is
promptly furnished the injured
workman. Merely authorizes the
State Board of Awards to allow him
not exceeding $500 for such care at
some subsequent time at the arbitrary
discretion Of the Board.
On a basis of so 2-3 per cent. of
average weekly wage" at full time
work; s'average weekly wage is mot
defined, but is left to determination of
Board in every instance; in determ1n-
ing it Board is to consider what the
workman might have earned in the
future,-not what he did earn in the
past.
No security for payment other than
the estate insurance fund.-, no 1iabiI-
ity on the State, the Board of Awards,
or the employer in event of the fund
proving inadequate.
Amount of award arbitrarily deter
mined by single political Board sitting
at Hartford, and morally responsible
for solvency of fund; no appeal ex-
cept in rare cases; no settlement with
employer or other local person pos
sibIe.
Acts of same general character
adopted only in Ohio and Washing
ton; the Ohio act, which is elective,
has not proved popular; the last re-
port from Washington shows a ten
deney to change to a compensation
plan at least in part.
Unlimited. Experience in Ohio and
Washington indicates that it will ma
terially exceed 100000 per annun

Most women suffer much humiliation

everybody sees that they are abnormal
This is the day of the slender figure, ana
fat women are simply not tolerated either
In business or social affairs Women may
not know it, but men when they see rat

pathetic remarks about her. They do
not mean to be unkind or to seem I'm
manly, but it is natural for man to
dislike fat on a woman. where rat
shows the most there is where 1T must

Con motive de un informe del Co.

tarde un incidente entire este ell Sc

de ley del senior Vargas en- virtud del
cual Sc autorizar1a los estudiantes de

tes del examen de practica que deter

que deben cumplir los aspirantes al IT,

una de las fnalidades del proyecto.
Ell Comite de legislation 10 inform6
desfavorablemente fundandose en- ra-
zones que aquel estima legales Ell in
forme fae sostenido por ell icenciado
Palmer, y 10 rebati0, ligeramente, ell
autor del proyecto, senior. Vargas. Es-
te considera que su proyecto es viable
y de una sana utilidad. Ell senor Diaz
Navarro solicita entonces un turno pa
ra refutar la augmentation del senior
Vargas, y as1 10 hace, afrmando cue ell
proyecto, tai como esta redactado debe
posponerse y que ell Comite de legis-
IN In Io+o IL
contrando que no era SUSCEPTIBLE de en-
mlendas, pues en- ese case habria que
hacer Ell proyecto nuevo en- su totali-
dad. Trato ell senor Diaz Navarro
con suma benevolencia al senior Vargas
y manifesto que sent1a vedaderamente
verse obligado a combatir un provecto
de ley presentado por un delegado
obrero, pues acaso este podria servir
de argumento para que sus enemigos
quleran combatirlo 6l personalmente,
declarandolo contrario a todo 10 que
sea beneicioso para los obreros. 10 cual
serla una injusticia, porque el siempre
ma respetado esa laboriosa clase desea
para ella ell mayor bienestar possible.
I'll senior Vargas hace uso de la pala-
bra nuevamente dice que agradece Al
senior D1az Navarro La forma benevolen.
te con que 10 ha tratado admite sr
buena fe, pero cree que ell proyecto ha
pod1do ser enmendado de una manera
que 10 haga viable, que la Camara pueda
aprobarlo, pues dice que Ia idea que 10
inspira es de altfsima convenience. Y
concluye diciendo que ahora Sc encontra-
ba solo defendiendo su proyecto, no obs
tante haberselo ensenado a varios dele
,gados y decirles 6stos que 10 estimaban
util y bueno y de una practicable reali-
zacion. Que tai conducta parecfa sig

sentase y ahora reirse de 6l en- la Ca

no. Pronuncia un extenso discurso
combatienldo duramente ell informe de la

no es acceptable tail como esta redactado,
pues su autor es ln hombre que carece
