the lowliest cot or a bed OF roses, your
posture and method of muscular re-

pitch. Thus. there can be no repining,

CASES BEFORE SUPREME COURT
Six to be Heard When Court Comes i'm Here Next Week
Two Appeals From Awards by Compensation Commits
sioner are i'm the Lst-Lsbon Taxation Case Against
Ponernah Mills-Sidewalk Change in New London Also
Giving Rise to Legal Action

the court IS asked to rule are whether
it has any extra territorial effect,
whether compensation can be given for
fatal injury outside of Connecticut and
within the jurisdiction of another state
and not on the high seas, whether the
United States district court has sole
and exclusive Jurisdiction, whether the
deaths arose in the course of the men
employment, whether the deaths were
not the result of the two mems Sc
rious and wilful misconduct, whether
the WorkmeE's compensation act is not
unconstitutional as against the con-
stitution of Connecticut and the con-
stitution of the United States, and
whether the laws of the state Of New
Jersey apply in this case.
Referring to the Connecticut work.
mems compensation act the questions
are raised whether compensation ap-
plies where death is instantaneous,
whether it is necessary to show negli-
gence on the part of the defendant
company, and freedom from contribu-
tory negligence on the part Of the two
men, whether death from drowning as
in these cases is death from injuries
such as are described in the workmen's
compensation act, and whether the
COMPENSATION commissioner has power
to order compensation to be paid for
312 weeks from the date of his order.

ROOSEVELT'S DEALINGS
WITH PLATT
CONTINUED from page one.)

Mr.. Roosevelt testified that he did
confer with Mr.. Platt, so-called 'easy
boss" But, he added. he did so with
regard to the interests of the party
with a genuine desire to keep the re-
''the centrifugal influences" within
that party and prevent It from flying
asunder.
The colonel stepped from the stand
at the end of the day amid roars of
laughter he had caused. He had been
answering questions and incidentally
asking a few of the attorney cross
examining him, about Mr.. Platt's OPP
position to a bill in the New York
legislature providing for tax upon
franchises. The witness told how he
had finally secured the passage of the
bill against the wishes of Mr.. Platt
and other leaders of the republican
organization. Then he was asked
whether upon the final passage of the
bill, which caused the break between
himself and Senator Plat, he had sent
to the senator in Washington a tele-
grain containing nothing but the two
words Three cheers"
the colonel solemnly replied. Then he
made a grimace. smiled. slapped his
thigh with his open hand and added:
But 1t is characteristic"
On several occasions Colonel Roose-
welt was more crosS-examiner than
being cross examined. His eyes spark
ling behind his glasses, he would snap
out a monosyl1ab1e as an answer to a
question put to him, then proceed to
make statement upon his own ac-
count and conclude with a query to

William WINS, chief counsel for VIII
liam Barnes, Jr., who is suing to re-
cover $4,000 from Colonel Roosevelt
for alleged libel. Mr.. WINS nearly
always replied to the questions of the
witness before resuming his examina-
ton, in a soft voice that was scarcely
audible in the rear of the court room.
Here Mr.. WINS. regarded in legal
circles as master at the art of
cross examination, alternately stood
a great pink carnation carefully placed
in the lapel of his coat and a little
black skull cap upon his head. Once
after the colonel became enthusiastic-
ally emphatic. the grayhaired coun-
Sellor remarked that the witness was
treating him "as a mass meeting"
while on another occasion he declared
| that he had no desire ito be eaten
up here"
However, while lengthy letters be-
tween Colonel Roosevelt and Senator
Platt and Colonel Roosevelt and Mr..
| Quigg were being read to the jury, Mr..
WINS stepped up on the stand and
| engaged the witness in a whispered
| conversation. The letter had to do
with the relations between Colonel
| Roosevelt and Senator Platt in regard
| to legislative and political affairs be-
| fore, while and after the former was
| governor.
Wrote 10000 Letters While Governor.
The colonel remarked during the
| day that he believed he had written
| 100000 letters upon various subjects
while he was governor and president.
This was only the first day of Col
| onel Roosevelt's cross examination. He
| will resume the stand again tomorrow
| At the conclusion of the proceedings
| today the Barnes attorneys piled up
on the table in front of them stacks

TO STOP STAMPEDE OF
LABORERS TO ALASKA
Engineering Commission Says No
Large Number Will Be Needed This

Washington, April 22.-Reports of an
impending stampede of laborers to
Seward, Alaska, in search of work on
the government railroad from Seward
to the interior called forth a warning
today from the Alaskan engineering
commission that no large numbers of
men would be needed there this year.
1T IS much to be regretted that large
numbers of laboring men are f1ocking
to Seward seeking work on the pro-
posed government railroad" said a
statement by Chairman Edes. mo con-
struction work is going on at present,
nor is there any possibility of work
being started for several weeks Most
Of the work will be let out to station
men who will do their own work and
who will require a little capital to be-
gin with. Not more than a few hun
dred men will be needed this season,
and it IS probable there are sufficient
numbers there now.
mo man should go to Alaska with
out money enough to return to the
states in case he does not find work.
At present the opportunities for en-
ployment in Alaska are very few"

Theme is only one way to cure deafness,

Deafness is caused By en- inf1amed condi-

you have a rumbling sound or imperfect
hearing, and when it is entirely closed,
Deafness is the result, and unless the in
fiammation can be taken out and this
tube restored to its normal condition,
hearing will be destroyed forever; nine
