CHEAPEST THING IN CHICAGO IS
LABOR OF CHILDREN

htIS .
ries of human life. They are BIOS
SONS of love and Sod sends them to
redeem the world with fresh beauty.
The Rev. Dwight Newell Hills.
The cheapest thing in the great
city of Chicago is the labor of chill
dren, according to figures given the
committee on industrial affairs at
Springfield yesterday.
Wages paid to boys and girls by
Chicago business men were cited by
Miss Anna Davis of the Chicago pub
lie schools. The hddies who quit
school at IA and start in on their first
Jobs sell their labor for almost close
to nothing a week and they change
jobs often.
Sixty per cent of the boys and
girls who start in to work at IA years
remain at one job from one TO nine
MONTHS said Miss Davis.
"Out of 258 girls that l have inves-
tigated, 17S began at 81 a week, SO
per cent less began at So and II per
cent more than 81 a week.
I'm many cases girls get only 50
week. And starting at this early age,
only beginning their development to-
ward womanhood, they are subject to
heart trouble and tuberculosis.
1.-TWO dollars a week is the average
wage per week of the child between
IA and 16. TIE shifts from job to job
and is employed about half the time.
Drifting. causes immediate delin-
quency. Over one-half the boys and
girls who pass through the juvenile
court are between IA and 16, and not
in school at the time of their arrest.
Drifting also causes future inef-
f1ciency. We find only 8 per cent of
the boys and girls who leave school
at IA later enter any skilled kind of
work"
A Lithuanian working girl, Sada
Laporte, came before the committee

and strong, with good looks on their

with got into the blood of the girls.
1t poisoned them. They break down
and have to quit their jobs and rest {
til lthey are able to go to another job
somewhere else.
I'm the dye factory were Loco
other girls working. Many were my

with body almost wrecked. Now
am trying to build it up again. And
am trying to get the education
should have had years ago. am
starting late to get what was mine by
right long ago. 1 am twenty years
old now"
Nearly everybody felt little creepy
and uncanny about the story of Miss
Laporte, as she told it to the commit
tee. Her eagerness for education,
more health and more life made an
awful contrast to her pale face and
worn body robbed of its vitality by
the industrial system of Illinois.
About $4,000 children between Ia
and 16 are working in Illinois, it was
stated by Oscar Nelson, state fac
tory inspector. Employers are be-
ginning to find that it doesn't pay to
work children Of that age, accord-
ing to Nelson.
The proposed child labor law will
stop children under 16 from work as
wage earners in all classes of em-
ployment except agriculture and do
nestle service. The law does not APP
ply to vacation time. It is aimed at
getting the boys and girls into the
schools instead of the shops and fac
tories and stores. E

During the run of play at the Co., han Theater in New York last winter Ia wobbly person teetered up to the box office one Saturday night and de- manded a good seat.
 "Nothing left except standing room," said the boX-ofiice man. "Sell you standing room for a dollar"
 The wavering one produced dol lar and went inside. But so many general admissions were grouped at the rear that, over the intervening hedge of heads, he caught only vag- rant glimpses of what went on upon the stage.
 He foggily considered the situation for a spell. Then he rocked his weav- ing way back again to the box-office window and put a second dallar on the shelf.
 "Gemme nozzir one of them stand in rooms," he ordered; "can't see the show at all if you only got one.

London, Sept. 1.-The Germans have lost twenty submarines since the beginning of the war, according to an editorial note in the Motorship and Motorboat, while the British losses have been only seven, including the E-7, the destruction of which was announced to day.
 When the~war commenced, the paper declares, Germany had eleven sea-go- ing submarines and sixteen of small Ter type, while up to June 1 ten new boats had been added. The assertion is made that the Germans now have only fourteen seagoing underwater boats, two of which are in the Medi- terranean.

Money Is Divided

cEIvE sa11,2oo FOR IMPROVE
MENTS.

WASHINGTON, D. c., April s.
The S30,000.000 lump appropriation
for rivers and harbors made by Con-
gress at the last session. has been
apportioned among the various exist
ing projects by the Secretary of War
and the Board of Engineers in &C.
cordance with the provisions of the
bill. All the amount has been allot-
ted. except s3,241, ,52S.50. which has
been reserved for contingencies.
The Ohio River project gets a total
of S3,640.000 of which $3.330.000 is for
locks and dams and $4,000 for open
channel work. This sum. in addition
to the S3.000.000 carried in the sun
dry civil appropriation bill, will give
plenty of funds for carrying forward
the work of canalizing the Ohio dur
ing the next fiscal year and 1t is be-
lieved that the project will not be
delayed because of the lack of specific
appropriations for 1t. The sum set
aside for 1t by the Board of Engineers
will meet all the necessary expenses.
it is thought. and work will not have
to be suspended on any of the locks
and dams now under construction.
The allotment of funds also gives
S211,200 to the Monongahela River
and $500 for the maintenance of the
Pittsburg Harbor. Other sums appor-
toned are: Conneaut Harbor, Ohio,
S195.oo0; Erie Harbor. Pa, $4,000.

the italian water hoy" employed at
the Owens Glass Works. who was
brutally assaulted outside of the plant
last Saturday night, probably will re-
cover, according to a statement given
out at the Miners Hospital today.
{ Potesta Is suffering from fracture
OF the front part of the skull and a
fracture of the left forearm. The
blows failed to render him uncon-
scious.
Chief of Police Fred Harr says that
the blows were inflicted by a pick
handle, which has been recovered by
the officers, and that three blows were
struck, one of which took effect on
= 5Potesta's forehead, one on the back
sof his head and one on the left arm,
which he evidently threw up to pro-
tect his head.
At the hospital today Potesta sato
that he knew of no reason why any
one should have attacked him. Po-
tesla had $25 in his pocket when he
was attacked, and although this money
was not taken, Chief Harr believes
that robbery was the motive for the
attack; and that the assailant was
frtghtend away before he could get
the money.
The workmen at the plant called
the city police and Officer Boggess
was sent to the plant to investigate.
He secured the Murgrave bloodhounds
and a search was begun. The dogs
led to an Italian house on Merchant
street near the old pump station.
Upon reaching the house the dogs re-
fused to go farther. So far no arrests
have been made.

THRONGS ATTENDING FIGH'
Wheeling Iron Men
Hold Stormy Meeting

WHEELING. April Sat a turbu-
lent mass meeting of Wheeling dis.
trttc members of the AmaIgamated
Association of Iron, Steel and Tin
Workers. held here Sunday, a motion
to secede from that body and form
the United Iron and Steel Workers of
America was adopted. This action
was taken after half OF the 1000 pres.
ent had withdrawn from the meeting
to show thir loyalty to the amalgama-
ton.
Those who remained elected tenn
porary officers and called another
meeting to be held two weeks hence,
when a national convention will be
called. Speakers favoring secession
vigorously resented the published
charge that Industrial Workers of the
World influences are behind the move
ment. The action is the outgrowth OF
dissatisfaction over a recent decision
by referendum vote to accept a wage
reduction.
