EIGHT HOUR LAW
 S1IRS SuFFRAGISTS
Now Want Probe of Living Cost
 h Washington.

Washington.-The passage a short time ago of the Peters-La Toilette bill limiting the hours of labor for women in the District of Columbia, exclusive of stenographers, to eight day has by no means settled the woman labor problem in Washington. It has brought the problem into the field of open dis cussion, with result that more people are talking about the problems of wo- men workers in the capital than ever before.
 The center of the discussion is the District branch of the National Con- sumers' league, whose operations are directed by Miss Constance D. Leupp. Inasmuch as the activities of the Con- sumers' league here are typical of the kind of work which is being done by the same or other organizations throughout the country, the matter is really one of more than local interest.
 The Consumers league has laid out a definite program of action. Having passed the eight hour law, it is now asking the senate to appropriate $6,OOO for a study of the cost of living in the District of Columbia to be made by the federal bureau of labor statistics. Having secured officially the statistics of living-and a favorable report on the resolution in question indicates that the chances are in favor of the in- quiry's being ordered--the Consumers league will next press for a minimum wage law.

SANITY TEST IN MISSOURI.

In Jackson county, Missouri, a court was called upon to decide a matter of far-reaching importance, in that community at least. The final decision unfortunately was lack ing, for one of the parties to the case; in a panic, consented to compro- mise when he heard the character of the testimony which was being introduced agains him.
 The case was over will left by Louis Neer, a participant in the Kan sas-Missouri war, which preceded the great war, and a Confederate veteran who fought through from the begin ming to the end of the struggle. In this will he left the bulk of his es- tate to some of his children, exclud- ing others. The excluded ones very promptly sought to have it set aside on the ground that the deceased was mentally incompetent at the time that he executed it.
 uC 1C0 O1 lAC VIII oSouS- ed the idea that any testimony could be produced to raise a question of the mental competency of their fath- CT, but they forgot for the moment their environment. Those attacking the will, when the case went to trial, put on the stand witnesses to prove that several times, in the closing years of his life, the old man had scratched his ticket and voted for Republicans for office, and that on one occasion he had actually voted the straight Republican ticket. More incompetency, he had boasted of the fact. His age probably saved him that time.
 Realizing what they were up against and not daring to leave the issue to any Missouri court on such testi- mony, the beneficiaries of the will promptly offered to compromise and the offer was accepted. For some reasons there is regret that the de- cision was not left to the court; but it is fairly easy to guess what the decision would have been in county in Missouri named after Andrew, Jackson and in which the normal Democratic majority is about 27,0O0, one year with another. The propon- ents of the will were wise--Ex.

 The anaesthetic Is substance which for a considerable time has been fa- miliar to medical men and chemists under the name of urethane.

The de- feat Driscoll came as a surprise to the followers of Wickersham, many of whom expressed themselves as being confident that they could muster sufficient strength to elect Driscon to the council.

OAKLAND, June 18.-The police of this city are striving today to solve the mystery of the death of Helen Mesow, a blind singer, who was found dead in her apartments last night.
 Death is believed to have been caused by poison, but the police fear foul play, as they can conceive of no reason for the suicide theory ad- vanced by some. The police are now hunting for the man who called fre- quently at her apartments, and who was seen in them only yesterday.

LITTLE MAN HAD HIS OPINION
General Verdict Of tho Company Was
That He Spoke From Experiences

Conversation had drifted once more
to the ever-interesting subject of mar
riage. The smoking room was full,
and almost every man had contributed
something out of his own personal
experience to the discussion.
Some said long engagements were
better than short ones, some held that
marriage was an utter failure. and
others that it was the only thing that
made life worth living.
One perky little person insisted that
q man should be master in his own
house." but was violently opposed by
a regular giant, who believed in sleav-
ing things to the wife, and SO on.
This subject. however was side
tracked by somebody observing that
it was curious to note how little men
almost invariably married large wo-
men. At this, a very small. unhappy
looking little man burst suddenly into
life.

tested mildly. 'In my opinion It is

MAKES GOOD CORD AND ROPE
Formation OF Marketable Products
From Wood Pulp Is a New In
dustry In Europe.

An industry which has attained con-
siderable Importance in Europe, is the
making of cord and rope from wood
pulp These new ropes are twisted
out Of thin threads made from the
pulp AT the present time these dig
enous fibre ropes are used more or
less extensively in the foundries OF
Germany. The fine threads which
make up these ropes are made by
forcing the chemically-treated wood
pulp or cellulose through very fine
tubes with running water, in which
they harden.
After they are dry they are perfect
ly pliable and somewhat elastic, and
may be spun or twisted into any
form whatever. These minute elong-
ated threads are caught up as they
are forced through the fine tubes and
spun into ordinary silken threads.
which are woven into fabric resem-
bling silk.
A French inventor discovered that
paper may be cut into narrow strips
several millimeters wide, and that
after these have been stepped in GER
tain chemicals which give them tenac-
ity and durability. they may be rolled
and twisted into threads. which may
be worked up into fabrics Of various
kings and put to a great variety OF
uses.
Another French chemist has discov-
cred a way to make such fabrics, as
well as ordinary paper waterproof.
and a German inventor has produced
a good quality of thin paper practic-
ally waterproof.
