Police Court Chronicles

When John Timber, n six-foot Negro,
called TO see his girl, Sarah Bryan, OF goth
and Filbert streets, he saw a IS bill on
the plano. This appeared to interest him
more than his sweetheart, and he reached
for II while he awaited her arrival in the
parlor. But Sarahs little brother. Joseph,
saw John take the money and told him to
drop 1t. This aroused the wrath OF Tim
her, and. drawing a revolver. he told the
boy to make quick exit and keep quiet.
Sarah overheard the conversation and
reached the parlor Just as John was
making n getaway" She chased him
up 39th street and told Special Policeman
Roaeboro, who happened along, about the
action OF her lover. Roseboro caught
Timber. and. after a struggle, landed
him in the seth street and Lancanster
avenue police station.
The Negro told Magistrate Boyle that
Sarah owed him the money and then he
dehed the whole police force to keep him
in Jail He was quieted when Roseboro
jammed him up against the wall.
The testimony Of Sarah and Joseph
convinced the Judge that the prisoner was
IN the wrong, so Timber was sent where
he can get free board, and incidentally
was held in $500 bail for court.

PHONE MEN COMPLAIN
AGAINST WOMAN'SLAW
Ask State Board to Split One
Day Off in Seven, to Better
Service.

An effor. to obtain n modification of
the "womans law" recently approved
by Governor Brumbaugh, was made to-
day by representatives of the Independent
telephone companies of this State. who
argued their side of the question before
the Industrial Board of the Department
Of Labor and Industry at the Colonnade
Hotel
Senator Joseph Thompson, representing
the Independent companies, explained
that his clients objected to that part of
the law giving women employees one day
in every seven a complete day of rest,
pointing out that IL the equivalent rest
could be given on two days the com
panies would be enabled to employ
fewer operators and devote more capital
to maintenance of efficient service
Miss Florence IL. Pierce and Miss Mary
Mcconnell, representing the ConsumeSs'
League, requested a careful consideration
of this matter, the latter asserting that
she had positive proof that some of the
independent companies of the State have
knowingly violated the law limiting one
days work to 10 hours for women en-
ployes. She intlmated that they also
would attempt to violate the "spllt-holl-
day" provision and would be able to do
30 with little difficulty.
The second objection Senator Thompson
raised was against counting night service,
from 1880 p. m. to $50 a. M. as part
of the 81 hours week women employees
are allowed to work under the law in ex-
changes were night calls average less
than six.
II. G. Sanderson, member of the East
ern Pennsylvania Independent Telephone
Company and manager of the Paupao
Telephone Company, showed that in
small exchanges giving all-night service
the operators enjoy virtually unbroken
rest most of them having but one or two
calls to answer each night.
