Washington, February ga care
fully drawn provision for compensa-
ton for personal injuries of Panama
canal employees is embodied in an ex-
ecutive order promulgated by Presi-
dent Taft today to take effect atter
March l. The Panama canal act passed
last August, directed the President to
provide the method for adjusting the
claims of employees.
Every canal employe and family de-
pendent upon him are Insured against
the result of injuries received in the
course of his work, without reference
to questions of contributory negligence
or any of the other restrictive rules of
the common law limiting the liability
of the employer in such cases. Every
injury received while at work and
death resulting from such injury are
COMPENSATED for except for injuries
caused by the employees wilful inten-
tion or his intoxication. The Presidents
order was drawn in the light of the
report of Senator Sutherland's com
mittee on workman's compensation.

HolD to Make
Better Cough Jyrup than
You Can Buy
A Family supply, Saving "a and
Fully Guaranteed.

A full pint Of cough syrup-as much
as you could buy for $2.50-can easily
be made at home. You will find nothing
that takes hold of an obstinate cough
more quickly, usually ending it inside of
"a hours. Excellent, too, for Group,
whooping cough, sore lungs, asthma,
hoarseness and other throat troubles.
Mix one pint of granulated sugar with
~ pint of warm water, and stir for 2
minutes. Put 21a ounces of Pinex fifty
cents worth) in a pint bottle, then add
the Sugar Syrup. 1t keeps perfectly.
Take a teaspoonful every one, two or
three hours.
This is Just laxative enough to help
cure u cough. Also stimulates the appe-
tite, which is usually upset by a cough.
The taste is pleasant.
The effect of pine and sugar syrup on
the inflamed membranes is well known.
Pinex is the most valuable concentrated
compound of Norway white pine extract,
rich in guaiacol and all the natural
healing pine elements. Other prepara-
tions will not work in this formula.
The Pinex and Sugar Syrup recipe is
now used by thousands of housewives
throughout the United States and Can
ada. The plan has been initiated, but
the old successful formula has never
been equaled.
A guaranty of absolute satisfaction, or
money promptly refunded, goes with this
recipe. Your druggist has Pinex, or will
get it for YOU. IL not, send to The
pipex Co., Ft. Wayne, Ind.

Havana, February 26.-Gen. Cipriano
Castro, former dictator of Venezuela,
arrived here today on board the steam
er Saratoga from New York and was
greeted enthusiastically by the popu-

landing. The immigration officials af-
forded him all possible facilities. A
flotilla of tugs and launches crowded
with people went out to meet the Sar-

MED her to anchorage. on board was
the municipal band, lent by the mayor
of Havana which played the, Cuban
and Venezuelan national anthems. An
other tug was occupied by committee

YOUNG VICTIMS
OF HANDCUFFS

Two small negro boys. each about the
size of a dollars worth of change, but
securely Joined together by a pair of
handouts nearly as big as themselves,
were temporarily placed in the county Jail
yesterday afternoon by one of the state
transfer agents.
The diminutive pickaninnies had been
found guilty of trespassing or some other
such heinuous offense by Judge Murphy
of the juvenile court and were ordered
sent to the probation home at Mount
Meigs, near Montgomery. The tiny black
atoms presented rather a pathetic picture
as they marched into the county Jail;
they were not put in the cells, however,
as they were only being held until train
time, but as they sat on the steps in the
yard of the Jail, still wearing the brace

others narrowly escaped death when
the buildings at 140-142 Whitehall
street collapsed today early. The six
inmates of the building, warned by
several shocks, had found refuge on
the roof of an adjoining building or
had been rescued by firemen when the
structure fell. The resounding crash Of
the collapse frightened the horses at
tached to five pieces of fire apparatus,
causing them to run away in all di-
rections, one truck wagon striking Pa
trolman James Chapman, causing seri-
Gus injuries. Another truck collided
with fire plug in the downtown dis
trict, smashing the truck and killing
one of the horses. The buildings, which
were ancient, were being remodelled
for stores. Investigations have been
started.

Compensation For Injuries
ReceiOed By Canal Employees

der. "for the first time brings the fed
eral government abreast of the most
advanced thought and the experience
of other countries in dealing justly
with its employees at time when they
and their families are most in need of
justice; namely. when they suffer the
hardships of injury or death inevitable
in the course of modern industrial un-
dertaking. Such scheme of compen-
sation as is provided in the order just
promulgated by the President gives
the employees and their families the
needed sense of security for times OF
stress. The certainty of the eompen-
sation, the elimination of the old COM
mon law defenses against negligence
which have persisted long after the
conditions which gave rise to them
have passed away, removes one of the
most persistent sources of irritation
between employers and employees. 1t Is
another step in the continued effort
on the part of the government to main
tain healthy labor conditions in the
construction of the canal and to deal
Justly with those who have made the
success of that great work possible" "

Many Members Are in Favor of
Entirely New Building, But Board
of Control Suggestion Is
Finally Adopted

The Southern club building win be en-
iarged by the addition of a story de-
signed as a winter garden and convertible
into a summer garden during the hot
weather. Such was the decision of the
club at general meeting held last night.
The board of governors submitted a
report in favor of an additional story
and other improvements, including eleva-
tors Walker Percy and others, in dis
cussing improvements advocated a new
building entirely. Other speakers opposed
a new building at this time, while others
still expressed themselves in favor of de-
lay until the members could consider the
question thoroughly

room and was called to order by Presi-
dent T. o. Smith. He first had the secre-
tary read a resolution offered by A. Ben

gramme TO call special meeting OF the
club to consider it,"

planning that the board cf control, after
spending some time on the problem in
question decided unanimously in favor of
an additional story. which the architect,
II. B. Wheelock, estimated could be built
for $l1 600. TO be on the safe side $4,000
had been added to the estimate and for
$4,000. President Smith said, the club
could be adequately enlarged and re-
equipped so as to meet all present needs
and which would serve satisfactorily, he
thought for several years. He dwelt upon
the social feature of the club and pointed
out that it was especially desirable to
do something that would interest the
wives of the members. lie said that with

the fact that several thousand persons

again of Mr.. Benner's resolution adopted
at the annual meeting.
The chair In answer to question re-
iterated that the action of the board in
recommending the additional story had
been unanimous.
Robert Jemison Jr., made a speech in
which he said that this was too serious
a question to be hastily dealt with. He
said there were many angles which should
be considered. He estimated the value
of the site at $4,000. He suggested that
it might be well to sell the clubs prop
erty and buy another desirable lot for
$75 900 or 100000. He also limited that
it might be a good thing for the club to
sell it's property and move into the top
story of the Hotel Tutwiler.
Ham C. Stiles spoke vigorously in favor
of backing up the board by indorsing
its plan.
Harry Jones Resolution
Harry Jones indorsed action of the
board. He expressed the opinion that the
proposed $1,000 improvement would an
swer for the next 10 years. At the end
OF that time he said the club might be
in a good position to do something larger.
Mr. Jones offered as a substitute for Mr..
Percys resolution that the action of the
board of governors be coneurred in by
the club.
H. T. Ruduph made five minute speech
, in which he sided with the board.
Postmaster r. II. Aldrich told funny
story He said that someone asked what
was lobster The answer was given
that it was red and that it was crab
and that it crawled backward. "Now a
lobster is not red, neither is it a crab
and neither does it crawl backward" said
Mr.. Aldrich. Several members have re-
ferred to my friend, Bob Jelks, jocularly,
as bachelor But my answer TO that is
something like the answer to the defini-
ton of the lobster. Mr.. Jelks is not a
bachelor and he does not crawl back
ward Mr.. Aldrich spoke in support OF
the boards proposition.
William NJ. Byrd said that after the
kitchen and cafe and tea rooms were
located on the top floor of six-story
building large part of the building would
be useless. 1t had been suggested, he
said, that several floors could be utilized
as sleeping quarters, but he was strong
ly opposed to any such arrangement. He
indorsed the proposition of the board
E. Wilkinson and Claude Allen were
other members who upheld the action of
the board.
A Rising Vote :.
There being no further speaking, a RS
ing vote was taken on Mr.. Jones substi-
tute which resulted in Al for and &c

board of governors would proceed to make

stated that the plans submitted by Archi-
tect Wheeoclk were only tentative and
that several details would have to be
worked out.
At 10:15 the meeting adjourned to the
domino room on the main floor where the
members regaled themselves on tooth

'If at first you don't succeed, try, try
and try again. was evidently the motto
adopted by the voters of precinct No. g.,
better known as Robbins beat. in refer
ence to the hog law. On Monday by a
vote of 6S for and Go against, the quail
fled voters of that precinct decided that
hogs could run at large in the confines
of the beat. and yesterday the board of
revenue of Jefferson county on the re-
ceipt of the election returns SO decided.
This question has agitated the voters
of that precinct for many months, and
the lines on the proposition have been
closely drawn, in fact the election Mon
day was the third time that the matter
had been presented to the voters of that
beat for their approval or rejection and
on two previous occasions the voters
aforesaid cast their votes against stock
running at large. On the last go round
some of them had a change of heart and
by the narrow margin of three votes the
hog was accorded the privilege to roam
the length and breadth of the precinct
at his own pleasure without fear of
molestation.
II is questionable whether the election
of a president of the United States or
that of the next best in the country Of
flee namely, that of sheriff of Jeffer-
son county, aroused the citizens OF Beat
6 to the extent that the vote on the hog
law did. The agitation was so intense
that two factions have been formed who
are as hostile to each other as is the
