 Standards Somewhat Different.
 Somewhat different standards as to the way in which compensation should be awarded and the law administered are shown in the measures enacted this year., but this lack. of unifor- smityl is also feature of various laws previously passed in other states. For instance under the new Colorado statute injured workmen will receive 50 per cent. of their wages during incapacity, though not *to exceed S8 a week. In case of total permanent disability, the compensation is pay able through life. When death re- suits from sthes accident, the workers $ family is to receive a similar amount for six wears with a maximum of $2,- 300. Tn case of loss of eyes, hands. limbs or other members, similar pay- ments are to be made for a specified. period, varying from a few weeks to four years, dependent upon the nature of the injury.

 The Maine law, however, awards her injured workmen, paymentsby the employer of not more than s10 i week in case ofstotal disability with a maximum of $3,0OO Heirs in case of death receive the same and the scale of payments for those part ly disabled range from $4 to $10 n week.
 Pennsylvania provided for the pay ment of fifty per cent. of wages, but rot more than $10aors less than S5, with a maximum of $4,O00. The act is elective. and takes away from the employers the common law defenses, but the people will vote in Novem- Der on a constitutional amendment permitting the legislature to make it compulsory. The act creates a state insurance fund but employers are per mitted to protect themselves in any other form of insurance or carry thelr own risks on approval of the Bureau of Workmen,s Compensation which will administer the law.

 No State Insurance.
 The Indiana law provides no state Insurance, but permits the employer to seek it where he chooses or not at all, if he give proof of his financial ability to pay the com pe11sation. This is fixed at fifty-five per cent. of the avrage wage not to exceed 500 weeks and in case of death, burial expenses to the defendants not to exceed $100 and fifty-five per cent. of the weekly wage for 30Os5Weeks. Domestic ser- wants and agricultural laborers are exempt and those engaged in inter state commerce. The law is elective with both employer and employe and is administered by a state industrial commission
 Fifty per cent. weekly wage not to exceed 500 weeks is the basis of the Oklahoma law.

 Iowa and Alabama are the states which prohibited child labor Maine adopted a law under which women and boys under sixteen employed in mils factories and laundries are not permitted to work more than fifty four hours a. week. Pennsylvania en- acted. a statute limiting the hours Of labor of children between fourteen and sixteen to Hfty-oIle hours week. A feature of the law is that all such children employed must go to voca- tiona1 school at least eight hours. a week which must be computed in the fiftg-ea1e. hours thus making .--.t actual working hours forty-t three It further provides that no messengers under twenty one years can be em- ployed by 8 telegraph, telephone or company after 8 o'clock at night, and that no child under twelve can sell newspapers.

JONES DRAWS LARGE
 CROWDS ID MEETING

That the first day in the week. the Christians Lords day. is not the old sabbath of the Jews. nor is it a suc- cessor of that day, was clearly de- monstrated from the Bible last night. when the Rev Claude C. Jones preached on the Law and the Cos pei, in the Tent at Polk and Thir- teenth streets. In this sermon the evangelist showed in a forceful and resistlessly logical manner that the Law of Moses has been fulfilled in Christ and that we today are ander the dispensation of grace and right eousness of Christ
 A large crowd that heard the ser mon gave the speaker their undi- vided attention The plain straight forward gospel sermons that Rev. Jones is preaching in the tent are drawing many people to the tent every night. There is no question but that the people are deeply in terested in the teachings of the Bible and are anxious to learn the truth
 Tonight at eight o'clock MT. Jones Will preach on Pictures to Hang on Memory's Walls" There will be special music The sermon will be preceded by a fifteen minute illus trated talk to the children in which they will be told about the King who did not weigh enough.

CITY DONATES
 ID STATE FAIR
Citv Commissioner Includes $2,500 in Proposed City Budget to Help Chamber of Commerce Raise Fund of $7,500 for Advertising

| Included in the tentative budget of the city for the ensuing year will be an | item of $2500 to be devoted to adVer- tising the state fair following the ac- l tion of the city commission yesterday morning, when in response to the ur- gent appeal of a delegation from the chamber of commerce, the city fath- CTS approved the expenditure of such q sum. The chamber of commerce in urging the appropriation said the coun- ty board of supervisors had agreed to make a similar appropriation if as sured that the city would contribute $25G0. This with a like amount to be diverted from the advertising approp- riation of the chamber would mean that a total of $7500 would thereby be- come available for the advancement of the publicity in connection with the state fair of 1915.
 The meeting of yesterday morning was not long drawn out Considera- tion of the new license ordinance was taken up with the result that an amendment was made proposed strik- ing out the fee assessed against collec- tiOn agencies. A minor amendment was also made to Section relating to the fees to be pail, by hucksters. The proposed ordinance will come up for final reading and passage at the next meeting.
 The bond of Fire Chief A. F Wright was approved by the city attorney and received by the commission and ord cred filed. The award of the contract for the city printing was referred to the city manager under the provisions of the new amendment of the city charter. The city manager reported he had received several bids for fire hyd- rants. the lowest being that of the Key stone Iron Works which bid s24 90 for four-inch and $34. 90 for six-inch hyd- rants. A contract for sixty four-inch and ten siX-inch hydrants was author iZed.
