hour working law for girls in the Dis
trict.
II am sure this bill will be acted upon
at this Congress- Mr. Peters declared.
He told of the hearings that were held
on the bill before the House committee
on labor. and how it was unanimously
reported how it passed the Senate with
amendments. and at the last of the late
session remained on the House calendar
Enacted upon, one of $40 other measures
to suffer a like fate.
Although made every effort for sus-
pension of the rules of the House." he
said, Il was unable to get this bill acted
upon. When the Senate bill came over
to the House we hoped to get that sub
stituted for the House bill. Instead of
being referred to the committee on labor,
where it belonged, it was referred to the
District committee of the House, and the
chairman of that committee took it to his
committee room and left it there We
moved for its consideration at am.
March ito discharge the District COM
mittee to which it was enormously re-
ferred. The point of order was made
that the bill was not present and could
not be considered. We took the matter
up again at 9:30 o'clock that morning and
carried through a motion to retire the
committee. but there was so much pres
sure of other matters in the last hour or
two of the Congress that We were unable
to get action.
1.-The bill is now before the committee
on labor. And soon the new men,
bers of that committee are appointed and
it is reorganzed-when the tariff bill is
disposed olive will certainly get action
on it,
Mr.. Peters closed by urging those pres
ent to bring every influence they can
to bear on the members of Congress for
the passage of the bill.

w. Nj. Whelan, who for two years has
been an employee of the document room
Of the House of Representatives, has been
promoted to the office of superintendent
of the document room, to take the place
Of r. B. Gordon, who is now sergeant
alarms of the House.
Mr.. Whelan came to Washington from
Lincoln, Neb., and was principal of the
school which Secretary of State Bryan's
children attended. He got into politics
with Representative Mcclure, managed
three campaigns for him, and four years
ago came here as his secretary. Two
years later he was appointed to posi-
ton in the document room, where he has
become known as an expert in the vast
quantity of government documents stored
there.
The appointment of a superintendent is
a. matter for the House doorkeeper, and,
although there was considerable outside
pressure to make political appointment,
a promotion from the ranks was deter
mined on as being the only way to get
perfect service In SO valuable an Office.

Substance of Report.

AS to the growth of the league, the re-
suits of the label committees work and
the extension of it's activities, the report
states:
AT the first annual meeting March Is,
1872 the membership had grown to 200
with an affiliated membership in one
school league Of sixty. Since that time
the membership has increased to $50 with
an affiliated membership in four school
leagues amounting to 30.
THE graphic object lesson given in
last years exhibit, the persistent effort
of the label committee and the faithful
ness of the leagues members in demand
ing labeled goods have been fruitful of
good results. Seven stores in the city of
Washington now carry labeled goods and
so it is possible in certain lines of gar
ments to wear articles which one knows
are not made late into the night by some
tired woman, in an ill-ventilated, crowded
tenement, by some Sad-eyed child kept
out of school for the purpose, or some
weary old worker too sick and too old to
longer bear the economic burden of self
support.
The question Is frequently asked US:
When there are SO many things be-
sides womens underwear which are
made In sweatshops, why is it we have a
label on that one class of goods onIy?'
Other classes of wearing apparel are be-
ing added slowly. A constant and In
creasing demand for the label on the
classes of goods that do bear it is the
only thing that will enable the league to
add factories of other kinds"

A Game of Hide

Deputy Sheriff Weston Lewis and a
certain we'll known local man played
hide and seek about the portals of the
new station, Friday morning, just
after the los train for Bangor pulled
in. and the Deputy was IT As far
as is known rs this edition goes to
press, the prey is still hiding and the
deputy is still seeking, though. as a
reward the deputy has a large suit
case chuck fun of contraband and two
trunks. each containing 10 gallons of
booze.
Somehow, Someway, Deputy Lewis
received word that Sturgis would ap-
pear on Train II. with load of con-
trahand The deputy was there to
meet the man, who. with his son. got
off the train as sprightly as YOU
please with a big suit case, unmis-
takably heavy and smelling outward
ly of spirits. Upon seeing the deputy
sheriff he wasted no words but made
his way through the station to the
sidewalk, where he attempted to get
passage to safety in public carriage
Failing to do this, and observing the
deputy close on his heels, Mr.. Sturgis,
double back on his track and disap-
peared somewhere, leaving his suit
case in the sheriff's hands.
Two trunks also came on the same
train, checked from Portland which
looked suspicious and the sheriff sent
for Deputy Bucklin. to hold confer
enee as to whether to seize the trunks
or not
Another interesting phase of the
matter was that, the prey after reen-
tering the station, seemed disturbed
by it's yastness, and lost all sense OF
direction stood in the middle of the
floor, turned twice trusted to bull
luck and bolted making good his
getaway.
