NEW DAY FOR THE WORKER

The Tribune was largely reSpoliSloie
for tbe creation of the Wagner Fac
tory Investigating COMMISSION WHOSE
renort has Just been submitted To 'ie
LEGISLATURE. The investigation SpfahS
from this newspapers demands 'ia'
an end he nut to conditions such as

cicntly broad 10 enable all conditions
affecting the health or safety OF lac

sion should be enacted. would ne

If the recommendation Of the com

And the report also recommends that
children over that age be examined
from time TO time when they are en-
Y ployed in factories to see that they
y remain physically FIT.
With regard to night work for
women the commission recommends
this provision Of law:
In order II protect the health ana
tories by providing an adequate period
of rest at night. no woman snail be
cmploved in any factory I'm this state
before 6 o'clock In the morning or
after 10 o'clock I'm the evening or any

BY making this expressly a health
regulation the commission hopes 20
obviate the objection that was raised
nv the courts To the law Of 1899 which
was declared unconstitutional. Judge
GRAY said Of that law. in the Williams
case. Il find nothing in the language

noting health" The necessity or
such a restriction TO protect the health

Agler Goes by Draft
From Jersey City
To Detroit Tigers

News from the Seat Of War, now
located in that dear Cincinnati, has
it that Joe Agler. class of the South
ern League at first basing in the sea
son of 1913, will not linger in Jersey
City. to which club he recently was
sold for $4,000 by the Crackers.
1t seems Detroits draft for Joe has
been allowed, and the Jersey club
management unless special arrange
ments have ben made-is stung.
When Joe was sold to Jersey City
some weeks ago, the idea was that
J. c. was purchasing him as a sort
Of agent for Frank Chance and the
New York TIighlanders, and that Ag-
Ter would start the season of 1914
with +. Leroy Chance The Cracker
management sold Joseph TO give him
the chance 10 better which
he certainly had earned-and because
there seemed TO be no way Of avoid
ing the draft process. should he be
not sold, except by the unsatisfactory
and unjust method of covering"

league players were elevated by the
drafting process the St. Louis

this system, il is noteworthy that the

ONLYFOURMEN
FROM u TEAM

OLEMSON COLLEGE, s. C., Sept
16.-Why should the Tigers
worry? They lost only four
men from the regular varsity football
team-Captain Britt, Coles, Kangeter
and Turbevlle. These we're good
men, but their places can be filled
with a little extra care. There were
number of fine scrubs last season
that are back, eager for A chance
to make varsity Fifty old students
were out in uniforms yesterday, The
freshmen will report to- day, and it
IS said that there is much likely ma
terial In the bunch.
So Captain Candy is hopeful
There are to be three football fields
this year. DR.. Calhoun, president of
the Athletic Association, says that
one field will be used for the purpose
Of learning signals. This field will
be at some distance from the others
so that no one team will know the
signals Of another. This plan will
make the scrimmages much more val
liable. The main athletic field Will
give room for two gridirOns, on one
the scrubs and the class teams VIII
pro ctice, the other will be used al
most exclusively for match games ana
for formal practice.
The fields viii soon be in fine CON

SO far as a division Of the money &C

Pollok says the advertising priv

pose that Ritchie would make his es-
cape on that account when there was
a sum Of $4,000 lying IN the bank
