these changes is that Army and Navy athletes

that women swimmers and other female com
petitors be permitted to compete and register,
and that professionals be allowed TO show In
team exhibitions with amateurs.
should the new amendments pass the

anywhere and represent a college In New York,
and the same rule applies to any part OF the

APPEALS COMPENSATION FINDING
Thames Towboat Co in Case of Two Men Drowned Off New Jersey Coast Last ApriAct Declared Unconstitutional Error Claimed in Awarding Funeral Expenses Without Showing That Bodies Were Found Ten Reasons of Appeal

Appeals from the findings and awards by Compensation Commission CT Dr. James J. Donohue, have been taken tu the superior court on the first Tuesday of December by the Thames Towboat company New London in the case of Marcia c. Marsdale of New London, administratrix of the estate of her son George Marsdale, and in the case of Sophia KennerSon of New Lon don, administratrix of the estate of Wallace T. Hodges.
 Both men were lost from the tug Aries off South Amboy, N. J., on April 15, 1914 in Raritan bay.
 Many of the reasons of appeal are the same in both eases. Among these the attorneys for the Towboat Co.,. who are Hull, Mcclure and Hull, claim that the findings and award were against the evidence and that the com pensatton act has no extra-terrttorial effect and lnasmuch as the fatal acci- dent occurred outside the jurisdiction of the state of Connecticut and within the jurisdiction of another state and not on the high seas no claim for compensation can be made under the act
 They also allege that the compensa- ton act does not apply to a vessel en- gagged in interstate commerce and therefore the compensation conmis- sioner has no jurisdiction.
 The claim Is also made that the

Surely Use Mi-o-na-Immediate, Safe and Effective Relief or Money
 Refunded,

When you have heartburn, pains in the pit Of the stomach and taste sour and undigested food it's a sure sign your last meal Is not digesting, but Ierment1ng, causing poisonous gases, sourness and acid stomach Such symptoms must not go unheeded, for they indicate indigestion. which will surely destroy your health and happi- ness
 Prompt and lasting relief for any stomach distress is a simple inexpen- sive matter if you will only try the harmless Mi-o-na prescription easily obtained from any druggist.
 Mt-o-na is especially prepared to neutralize excess acid. absorb the poisonous gases and stop fermentation which surely sours your food causing sick headache dyspepsia, biliousness, bad dreams and nervous unrest,
 Mi-o-na not only corrects sour, acid, and gassy stomach, but improves the entire digestive system so that the blood, nerves, muscles and skin all re- ceive increased nourishment causing clear complexion, bright eyes and that delightful sensation of feeling f1t."
 It's certainly needless for you to suf- fer any after eating distress or stom- ach misery. Ask The Lee & Osgood Go. for some Mi-o-na tablets, take them as directed, and if they do not quickly banish every sign of indi- gestion they will not cost you penny

compensation act is unconstitutional. because under several sections of tho constitution of the United States the general assembly of Connecticut had no power to enact the act; because thereby the general assembly usurps the power of the superior court, and also attempts to vest the judicial pow CT of the state in the compensation commissioner, and that the State of Connecticut is further prohibited by the Fourteenth amendment to the constitution of the United States from making or enforcing any law which shall deprive any person of life, hber- ty or property without due process of law and from denying any person the equal protection of law.
 The appeal also disputes the award of $100 for burial expenses in each case on the ground that 1t did not ap- pear that the body of the deceased was ever recovered from the water and 1t did not appear that any burial ex- penses occurred, or if incurred, that they had amounted to $100.
 It is further claimed that the fatal injury was the result of the serious and wilfuI misconduct of the deceased.
 Others of the ten reasons for appeal relatae to the finding regarding de- pendence upon the deceased by the petitioner and to other points in which it is claimed the compensa- ton commissioner erred.
