COMPENSATION OF
 WORKMEN IS ISSUE
Understood That Many of Damage Suit Lawyers Are Opposed to
 Proposed Law

Montgomery. August g. s.-(speeial)-Ths senate committee on judiciary considered tonight workingman's compensation act prepared by the recess committee on judi ciary. No action was taken.
 Tonight marked the beginning of a study however, which will require much of the attention of the legislature for the next few weeks. The idea is favored by the operators and the laborers as a rule, but is opposed by lawyers of the so-called damage suit variety.
 The bill in question provides that it's pro- visions may be put into effect or not at the option of the operators It provides, too, that the maximum amount to be paid by a corporation for death shall be 5000, and for an injury 5000. Payments are to be made at a rate not exceeding $10 per week
 The bill provides further, that an in- jured person if not satisfied with terms may appeal to the courts

At the Orpheum

Every performance since this week s bill opened at tine Orpheum theatre the house has been we'll filled. The 8 o'clock matinees have been drawing big houses and the 80 and 8 o'clock performances have been unusually well attended, the audiences showing their approval of the entire five acts with frequent and enthusiastic applause.
 The Texas quartet proved itself the headliner, it in reality being as fine male quartet as has appeared in vaudeville here. This attraction par ticularly was anchored on every song, "The Rosary" "Rheuma tism'' and the "Nigger Blues being especially bright and snappy, among their selection of songs.
 With songs and jokes galore for the other acts and a touch of the dramatic in the "Sign of the Rose" by Martin and Arnold, this weeks show will no doubt continue to please big crowds at each performance.

LONDON, December 2S.-A manifesto

AS this is time of great national
danger it is imperative that every citi-

Great Britain has to perform. In a
long war success depends mainly upon
the respective financial resources of
the combatants and the consequent
power of one of them to maintain or
