United States district court. at Con-
cord. Tuesday.
Thaw's petition for admission &c
bail the court left undetermined
taking the ground that 1t would b.
more appropriate for this to be de
cided by the supreme court. The re-
suit of the decision is that Thaw's
guardianship and condition is un-
changed for the present; but hal the
petition for a writ of habeas corpus
will go to the highest court in the
land with a decision of the lower
court in his favor.
The decision makes more than TO-
900 words and discusses exclusively
the various phases of the case pre-
sented in the United States court
concluding:
My conclusion is that constitu-
tional right OF extradition for crime
does not reasonably apply to such a
condition as this, where the right OF
control by the demanding statute
resides in a degree OF custody based
on insanity and where its papers
upon their face negative the idea OF
personal criminal responsibility.
1T results that an order will be
made sustaining the writ and that
the petitioner be discharged from the
Iextradition process under which he
was held at the time HIS petition for
Labeas corpus was brought on con-
stitutional grounds.
No formal order will be made
either sustaining the writ or dis
charging the petitioner until the
aggrieved party has had an oppor-
'tunity to perfect its appeal"
Only by extraordinary steps can
the Thaw case be considered by the
supreme court before next October.
as the court plans to suspend hearing
all cases on Friday, April "a, and
hear no more argument until October,
unless some extraordinary occasion
should demand. Those best informed
on the courts procedure predict 1t
may be Christmas before the supreme
court passes on the case finally.
Under the statute granting an ap-
peal to the supreme court, formal APP
plieaticn must be made to either
Judge Aldrich or to a member of the
supreme court.

End of Michigan Strike.

The strike of the copper miners in
upper Michigan came to an end
Tuesday, as a result of a referendum
vote taken among the members of the
Western Federation of Miners. The
strike has beer in effect since last
July when 1900 men according to
figures of the federation, demanded
better wages and working conditions
and recognition of the federation.
After the of the referen-
dunn vote by the district board of the
Western Federation of Miners, Secre-
tary Hietela gave out this statement:
Complying with instructions of
the district board 1t vas decided not
to give any separate figures from
each of the local unions. Total vote
cast in favor of calling off the strike
throughout the district. 3104; total
vote East in favor of continuing the
strike, 1886; total vote, 4740."
Recognition of the union, denied
by the mining companies. is waved by
the strikers in voting to return to
work. They claim that practically
all of their other demands have been
complied with since the strike began.
These demands include better work
ing conditions. an eight-hour day and
a minimum daily wage of SO.
Secretary Hietela said the strike
had cost the union more than 1000
600. Strikers who cannot get work
and their families will be taken care
of by the federation. it was announe-
ed. Those who want TO go elsewhere
will be provided with funds. The dis
trict union has a small amount of
money on hand and an additional
sum is expected from the federation
Headquarters in Denver.
When il became known that the
strike was to be called off there was
a rush of strikers seeking employ
ment at all the Calumet and Hecla
mines. Many of them were put to
work after surrendering their union
cards. Others were promised work
at the first opportunity. The opera
tors announced to the applicants that
no imported men who have been at
work during the strike will be dis
missed, but said strikers would be
! given preference over other outsiders.

Eye Test for Autoists

Defective eyesight. next to the over
use of alcoholic drinks, is responsible
for the increasing number of automo-
bile accidents, and every applicant for
a license TO drive a motor vehicle
should be subjected to an eyesight
test. is the opinion Of the American
Medical Journal. This becomes more
imperative because of the constant in
crease in the number of automobiles
being used for business as well as
pleasure purposes.
"All railroads and many electric
car line companies requires such a
test" says the Journal. "eYt in a
majority of States the prospective
driver OF an automobile need only af-
firm in his application that he has no
physical or mental infirmities.
When one stops to consider that a
railroad engineer drives over steel
track, guarded by signals and watch
men, and over a route with which he
Is thoroughly familiar, whereas the
automobilist drives over any road he
chooses, not protected by lights and

other European cities have seen the
necessity of an examination of the

in the enforcement of this protective
measure. It is more than likely that
defective vision is next in order of
frequency to the overuse of alcoholic
drinks as a cause of automobile acct
dents. We can and should protect
pedestrians and drivers of vehicles
from injury to much greater extent
than we do. Each applicant for a
license to drive motor vehicle should
be required to give satisfactory proof

1.-THE stars incline, but do not compel.

TUESDAY, APRIL 81, 1914.
The morning hours are not fortu.
nate. Astrology reads that Saturn
and the Sun exercise a malefic sway
until afternoon. Then Venus and
Jupiter are in benefie aspect.
Venus is in place dominating
strongly for good and this is inter
preted as extraordinarily lucky for
all love affairs.
Places ruled by the planet are held
to disseminate pleasant influences,
Banqueting- gardens, foun-
tains, theatres and cafes should pros
per while Venus is friendly.
Good luck should come from deal
ing with jewellers. engravers, silk
merchants, embroiderers and gold
smiths. u
Poets, actors and singers should
benefit. II is prophesied that a
woman shall win fame by her verses.
Jupiter gives an access of ability
to lawyers. scholars, bankers and
college students under this rule Of
the stars.
There is a fortunate sign for wrest-
lers and athletes. Baseball Is under
a promising omen, which foreshad-
ows a season of extraordinary sue
cess. afs

Ireland still remains subject to dis
cordant astral rule. Mars ascendant

Women are warned by the seers
that a period of severe stress is1at
hand when they will have to encoun-
ter subtle antagonisms in business
and professional life. They must not
mistake liberty for license, astrolo-
gers declare. An outbreak of scandal
and libel will cause a return to ex-
IRENE conservatism.
Persons whose birthdate it is have
the forecast of a year in which fin1a.

business anxieties will be overbals

SOME PECULIAR CLUBS

One OF the oldest OF social clubs
ever established In London was the
Everlasting club. limited In member
ship to 100. The members divided

that there were always some membsrs
present upon the club premises. The
club house was burned down ct the
time OF the great IRE OF London. when
the only remaining member on the
premises was nearly burned to death
because he had refused to leave be-

the table. The fre for lighting the
members pipes was never allowed to

During the 50 years Of its existence
the members smoked 50 tons OF to-
bacco. drank $4,000 butts Of ale. 1000
pipes Of port. and 200 barrels OF
brandy, besides other drinks.
Another extraordinary club was the
Signing club. the members Of which
we're supposed to be wholly absorbed
in thinking OF their sweethearts. Each
would hold In his hand . bit Of rib
bon. Z lock OF hair. q purse. or some
other article belonging to the object
OF his affections. and from time to

members had to compose and recite
