knew Of the case. She has been called
to his office several times since and
questioned.
Mrs. Barrett's name was mentioned
in a puzzling manner in the testl-
mony of Miss Corinthia Hail at the
Coroner's inquest.
Miss Hall was asked If she had not
seen Mrs Barrett on the fourth floor
on the day of the crime and II later,
in telling of the incident to A. P.
Hayes, she had not said that Mrs.
Barrett had some sacks in her hand
and was confused when she was
asked what she was doing with them.

The conversation with Mrs. Barrett
must have occurred before Mary Pha-
gan entered the factory, and what
bearing the incident could have had
on the strangling remains a mystery
to the public. although the Solicitor
may have the secret in his possession.

Mrs. A. Harrington Wilson Would
Garry Plea for BIuejacket's
Discharge to Daniels.

Mrs A. Harrington Wilson, who was
Miss Colleen Curry, a wealthy heir
ess of Key West. Fla, who recently
married A. Harrington Wilson, a
bluejacket in the United States Navy
with sixteen months yet to serve, will
appeal to Uncle Sam, through her
cousin. ex- Senator Harris, of Flor
ida. to grant an honorable discharge
TO her husband after two months
further service.
If this appeal is unavailing, Mrs.
Wilson declared Friday that she
would go in person before Secretary
of the Navy Daniels with whom snU
is acquainted, and there, summoning
all of the power of her Southern grace
and charm would plead her case di-
rectly to him.
But she does not believe this
course will be necessary. She is con
fident that the justice of her petition
will be recognized by the Govern
ment and that her husband will OBJ
tain his discharge on the appeal made
through ex-senator Harris.

WAR To ABOLISH
CHILD LABOR
IS BEGUN
Three Bills Offered in Senate and
One in Lower House in Leg
isIature.

A fight to abolish child labor in
Georgia was inauguarated in the As
sembly Friday morning. Three bills,
designed to remedy present condi-
lions, were introduced in the upper
branch by President Of the Senate
Randolph Anderson and Senator Fred
Kea. In the House, a measure aimed
at reform child labor was introduced
by Representative Sheppard.
Senator Kea announced that the
two bills Of which he is author, which
compel factories to furnish informa-
ton regarding labor conditions to
the Department of Commerce and
Labor, and compel factories to pro-
vide seats for women employees, were
suggested by H. NJ Stanley, head OF
the Georgia Department of Commerce
and Labor, and have the backing Of
the unions. They embody recon-
mendations made in a report submit
ted to the unions by an investigating
committee several months ago, II is
said.
Senator Anderson's bill goes into
detail regarding the ages at which a
child can work in a factory. 1t con-
Gains the following provisions:
eatures OF ANDERSON BILL
After 1918 no child under IL years
of age shall be employed in a factory
or other industrial institution.
After 1914 no child under 15 years
Of age shall be employed.
After 1915 no child under IA years
of age shall be employed.
Senator Anderson's bill provides
also for the repeal of section 3146 Of
the Code of 1910, which provides that
no child under the age of IL shall be
employed, unless the child can read
and write. He offers as a substitute
the provision that no child between
the ages of IA and 16 shall be en-
ployed unless the child can read
ordinary English and write ordinary
English sentences. II there is doubt
Of the child's ability to read or write,
the matter shall be referred to an
agent of the Department of Com
merce and Labor for decision.
The bill makes a violation of the
law a misdemanor.
Factory Conditions Hit.
Senator Kea's bills are directed
more at reforming factory conditions
and taking care of women workers.
One of his bills requires the owners
of a factory to give to the Depart
ment of Commerce and Labor infor-
tlldLlOn regarding ldDOI COnulllOuSi
hours of labor earnings of the la
borers, the character and amount of
labor employed, and all other infor-
nation that might be requested by
the Department of Commerce and
Labor
His other bill makes it incumbent
upon factory owners to provide suit
able seats for all women employees,
and permit their use when the en-
ployees are not actively engaged in
the work of the plant
The labor bills attracted consider
able attention among the members
of the Senate. Senator Anderson and
Senator Kea are confident that they
will pass without opposition.
A child labor bill was introduced in
the House Friday morning by Repre-
sentative Sheppard of Sumter Coun-
ty. 1t provides a scale of ages under
which a child may not be employed,
this limit being placed at IL years in
1913, not under 10 years in 1914, and
not under IA years in 1915.

MEXICAN TROOPS
HURRIED DOWN
TO BORDERS
Ten thousand Men Are Sent To
Galveston
CLASH WITH TEXANS
United States officers Forbid the
Texans to Set Foot on Mexican
Soil in Revenge.

Washington, Feb. 24.-Milltary or
ders flew thick and fast today in re-
demption of President Tafts promise
to have an army Of 10000 men assem-
bled at Galveston, the most conven-
lent port to Mexico all equipped for
foreign service and ready to execute
any order that his successor might
choose to issue upon the basis of con
diuons that will exist after March 4
These orders on the whole were
supplementary to those which began
to flow from the war department tow
ard the end of last week and were
calculated to insure the assemblage
of the second division of the re-or-
ganized army at or in the neighbor-
hood OF Galveston.
The completion of the orders to
move the entire second division is
intended as further warning to Mex
leo that there will be no departure
from the established policy of pre-
paredness during the remaining week
of President Tafts administration.
This course is justified on the ground
that any cessation in the closing days
of the Taft administration might be
seized hold of by Mexican malcon-
tents, as an opportunity for strike
at Americans which could not be ade-
quately overcome should officials
here relax their vigilance.

A Rnard and a Panar.

Take an ordinary board two or three
feet long, such as bread board, and
place it on the table so that about one
third of its length will project over
the edge. Unfold a newspaper and
lay 1t on the table over the board. Any
one not familiar with the experiment
would suppose the board could be
knocked off by hitting it on the outer
end, 1t would appear to be easy to do.
but try 1t. Unless you are prepared to
break the board you will probably not
be able to knock the board off. The
reason is that when the board is struck
it forces the other end up and the
newspaper along with 1t. This causes
a momentary vacuum to be formed un-
der the paper, and the pressure OF the
air above, which is about fifteen
pounds to the square inch, prevents
The board from coming up.
