1912 GOOD LABOR YEAR
State Figures, Just Published,
Show Few Unemployed.

The New York State Department of La
Dor, in a report made public yesterday
shows that the number of people unem-
ployed during the last six months Of 1912
was a great deal less than during the
same period of 1911.
The report is based on monthly returns
to the Bureau OF Labor Statistics from IS3
representative trade unions with n mem
bership of 1900. which is equal to 81 per
cent OF all union members in the state
The percentage Of unemployed at the end
of December 1912. the report says. was
81. as compared with $40 in 1911 and 25.6
in 1910. The percentage of 1912, however
was higher than the percentage for 1909
which was H. or for 1904 and 1906.

CRIMINAL COURT BATHED
Interior Marble White for First Time
in Nine Years.

The interior marble work OF the Grim
inal Courts Building. for the first time in
nine years. has been thoroughly cleaned.
Several grand iuries during that time
have commented unfavorabiy upon the
thick coatings Of dust upon the marble
columns and arches.
Six weeks ago the work began on the
lower parts of the columns. The upper
parts could not be reached without scat
folding.
The portions Of the Tuokahoe marble
cleaned to their original whiteness made
such a glazing contrast with the dust
begrimed upper parts of columns and
carved work that scaffolding was sent
by the Borough President, and the work
was completed on Saturday night. The
scaffolding was removed yesterday.

Men Who Awarded Prizes in
Hat Trimming Contest Flee
Photographers.
BOTH WORN BY ORDEAL
Carroll Beckwith Is Aided in
Decisions by Presence of
Wife, Who Sticks by Him
Throughout Contest.
BOTH WORN BY ORDEAL

As Carroll Beckwith and Irving Wiles,
artists. jumped into their top coats and
fed from the headquarters of the
Womans Political Union late yesterday
afternoon they said that the ordeal
through which they had just passed, act
ing as judges in the suffrage hat trim
ming contest. was quite the most anxious
one they had ever known.
Won't you, gentlemen" cried Mrs.
Harriet Stanton Batch. pursuing them,
won't you have your photographs taken
now with the prize winning ladies, to
be preserved in the unions archives?'
Mo- they answered in unison, wlping
their brows.
Madam" Mr.. Beckwith added, L will
march for the cause, l will walk for
the cause. i Will undertake, as l have.
the ticklish business Of picking out the
three loveliest from sixteen hats trimmed
by three lovely ladies. for the cause; but
] will not be photographed for the cause.
Mr.. Beckwith certainly went conscien-
tously through the business Of Judging
though there is no telling what might
have happened IL his wife hadn't sat
FIRMLY at his coat tails all the time-and
even the thirteen women who didn't win
allowed that he and Mr.. Wiles were
pretty fair in awarding first prize to
Mrs. Henry Butterworth, second prize
10 Miss Edna Lithauer and third prize to
Mrs. Cyrus W. Field.
Parade Hats tho Basis.
All the hats were the little white straw
parade hats that the union is selling for
a. cents Mrs. Butterworth twisted some
purple ribbon around hers. with bow
sticking out back, latest fashion, and a
bunch of green silk apples in front. 1t
cost In money: Hat, ~ cents; ribbon, %
cents and apples, 10 cents In time:
Trimming the hat. one hour; hunting for
green silk apples at that price. one day.
Miss Lithauer's hat was the fluffy one Of
the winning bunch. II was really
trimmed by her sister Clarice, who was
also there with hat. Clarice changed
hats with Edna the last minute before
the Judging, and maybe she wasn't sorry
when she saw Edna winning the prize
q nd being photographed in it afterward!
Mrs. Field made her hat into a tri-
corne by catching up the brim with two
green and purple rosettes-15 cents each
and a union button-hve cents. 1t cost n
cents.
The record for quick trimming was
Miss Beatrice Browns, who, arriving at
headquarters AT o'clock without hat
for the contest. and being scolded by
Mrs. Blatch. rushed TO the suffrage closet,
found a hat frame, pinned on band and
bow which she hastily manufactured out
Of regalia for the parade, and turned up
smiling with a creation that nearly won
a prize.
