CONVICT LABOR LAW.
PASSES
House Places Limitation Upon Sale of
Prison-made Goods.

BY vote of 302 to 3 the House of
Representatives passed the Booher-
Hughes bill. which was unimously en-
dorscd by the House Committee on La
Dor The bill provides that all goods,
wares and merchandise manufactured,
produced or mined wholly or in part by
convict labor in one state or territory
and transported into another state shall
be subject on arrival to the operation of
all convict labor laws in such state or
territory.
The friends of convict labor have here.
tofore shielded themselves behind the
theory that laws of this character We're
an interference with interstate com
merce, but the vote in the House of Rep
resentatives would indicate an acceptance
of the views of trades unionists that
when this labor comes in competition
with free labor it tends to lower living
standards and is, therefore, menace to
society.
A similar bill, introduced in the SEN
ate by Senator Hughes. is now pending
in that body, and its passage is predict
ed. The American Federation of Labor
has insistently urged the adoption of
this principle, and gave its best efforts
to secure the bills adoption by the
House of Representatives.

STRIKERS TENTS AGAIN RAZED.
Lawson and McLennan Denied Their
Legal Rights at Forbes.

aJohn r. Lawson and John McLennan
went to Forbes Wednesday for the pur-
pose OF erecting tents to take the place
OF those destroyed by the militia two
weeks ago. The tent colony is ON ground
leased by the United Mine Workers and
they are therefore supposed to have a
legal right to establish their homes. there
on. After one new tent had been erected
the militia appeared ON the scene and
demolished it. The union officials were
then notified that they could not re-
erect the homes of the striking miners
and militia guard was stationed on
the ground to see that the colony was
not re-established
MeLennan says the miners will insist
on thelr rights to re-establish the min
ers' homes and that when another move
is taken to erect tents provision will be
made to protect themselves against all
trespassers.

JANE GREY IN LEADING
ROLE OF THE FAMOUS

Charming Pollock, one OF the fore
most American dramatists, created an
entirely new theme in THE Little Grey
Lady, which will be the photo drama

days beginning tomorrow. After years
of success on the stage, THE Little
Grey Lady has now been filmed by
the Famous Players company, with
Jane Grey playing the title role. The
play has to deal with real men and
women. real scenes and real life. There
are no divorces in it, the leading man
does not run away with the wife of
his best friend, nor does any mention
occur of motor cars or the stock mar
ket.
The story deals with Anna Grey (the
Little Grey Lady, and Perry Carlyle,
who both come to Washington from
Canton, o. where they knew each
other for years. In Washington they
are clerks in the redemption agency
of the treasury department along with
Ruth Jordan. This Ruth Jordan is a

departed from the ruts of ordinary
comedies.
The story of how he promoted that
comedy is one OF the interesting pages
in theatrical history. In brief it is
this: When he was not in New York,

bune office. he kept the telegraph wire
warm with suggestions, and the tele-
phone transmitter vibrating with the
sound of his voice. and Mr.. Perkins
quaint treatment of the title role Of
"A. Keene Shaver is just as fun
provoking as ever.
Here is brief story OF the play:
Erastus Underholt, a self made mil
lionaire, brings his family to New York
in order to get them into society. He
plans to marry his son, Charlie, and
his two daughters to select members of
the four hundred. Curiously enough.
Mr.. Underholt's estimable views are
not shared by several of the members
of his family, Charlie and Bernice in
particular. Charlie is in love with
Marian Hayste, and Bernice has a
sneaking fondness for Tom Valentine.
Charlie goes on a party one night,
and owing to the curious liquids with
which he has been piled, has a very
evil headache when he awakes the next
morning. The discovery that he has
brought a total stranger home with
him does not aid the headache ma
terially. His father has warned him
that one more drinking scrape will
mean his disinheritance.
The stranger turns out to be Angus
tus Keene Shaver, a barber and student
of theosophy. Charlie introduces him
to his father as my friend from In
dia," the Rev. James Tweedle, the
osophist. The father realizing that a
real theosophist will make a tremend-
Gus hit with society, engages Shaver to
stay in the house as his protege.
Shaver, clad only in a yellow bath
robe, finds escape impossible. Every
attempt meets with failure. The most
laughable scene of all is, when dressed
