LAW LIMITING EMPLOYMENT OF WOMEN MUST BE CARRIED OUT IN STATE DECLARES
 SUPREME TRIBUNAL.

In a decision handed down Satur- day the supreme court sustained the eight hour law limiting the employ ment of women, and reversed the judgment of the lower court in tho case of the state vs. the Dominion Hotel Company of Globe.
 Action was brought against the hotel company on the ground that it had violated the eight hour law in employing one Ada Tessner, a wait ress, for more than eight hours in one day. 1t was also charged that the period of employment had cover ed period of more than twelve hours, also forbidden by law.
 The law prescriDes certain excep- tions to these limitations. They are not applicable to railroad eating houses located upon railroad, rights of way and operated by or under control of any railroad company, or to telegraph or telephone offices of exchanges under certain conditions, the superior court of Gila county sus- tainedI the demurrer of the hotel company on the ground that the law was unconstitutional, stating that the defendant was not given equal pro- lection under the. law with railroad restaurants or other establishments.
 Since the redition of the judgment the law has been largely disregarded 4rcr 3hout the state

CAMERON MINING eta shret LAND NOT MINERAL BEARING AND DEPARTMENT VOIDS
 LOCATIONS.

Phoenix, Sept. 24-That the govern ment is determined to bring to some sort of a settlement the litigation over alleged mining claims held by R. H. Cameron, in and near the Grand Canyon, is evident from the fact that an entirely new action was begun yesterday by the United States attor- ney in filing and busting suit before Judge Sawtelle, in connection with the claim known as the Cape Horn"
 This suit is not an outgrowth of the contest proceedings that have been instituted against Cameron in the U. S. land office, and which the Cameron interests have got into fed eral court on a plea of no jurisdiction. As the cases now stand, the United States has three separate legal com bats with Cameron, impending. The fight to be heard will be the suit over the Cape Horn location, called for Saturday before Judge Sawtelle, at Tucson.
 The government maintains that Cameron applied for patents several years ago, the patent was denied on the ground that the land was not proven to be mineral bearing, and in addition the United States Land Of flee voided the location. On the as sumption that the government could deny a patent under these circum- stances, but could not void his loca- tion, Cameron has held to the ground, which is of commanding importance in connection with the livery business at the Grand Canyon.

Case Came. Up Before Judge McAIis- ter at Safford on "Wednesday and Verdict Was Rendered For
 Plaintiff.

The libel suit of J. G. Cash vs. David E. Bronson and J. M. Lally for $25,000 damages was tried at Saf- ford On Wednesday of this week be- fore Judge McAlister of the superior court of Graham county, the defend ants having asked for a change of venue from Greenlee county. The case in question is one which has caused a great deal of interest in Greenlee county, since it was, insti- of the parties concerned and was
 brought about through the publica- ton of an alleged libelous article in the issue of the Mining Journal of March Beth, 1914, which was claimed to have been derogatory to the char acter of Cash, then constable of the Morenci precinct.
 MT. Cash was represented at the trial by Attorney E. " Horton, of Clifton, with Lee N. Stratton, of
 Stafford, as associate counsel, while the defendants interests were look ed after by L L. Quiet, of Morenci, and w. E. Chambers, of Stafford, act ing as associate counsel David Bronson was the chief witness for the defense and was on the stand during the morning session and for g short time in the afternoon, he being the only witness introduced by the defense. For the plaintiff, out side of the principal to the suit, but two witnesses were examined, and
 the case was practically closed at 3 o'clock Wednesday afternoon. Thurs i day morning was taken up with the arguments of the attorneys and the case went to the jury at 10:30. At 1 o'clock the jury returned a verdict in favor of the plaintiff and set the damages at $250O.
 At the beginning of the case Attor- hey Quiat, for the defense, entered counter claim against the plain tiff, asking for s1Oe damages in case the verdict was in Iavor of the de- ,erse. Socn after the noon recess tle case against Bronson was dis missed and the action proceeded against Lally with the result that thereafter he was the only party to the suit and the damages affected him alone. Lally immediately ap- pealed the case to the supreme court and their decision will be awaited with interest by the public.
 MT Bronson states that he will shortly enter suit against Cash for expenses of the trial so far as the case against him is concerned.

Where Love Is Blind

W lETe EOVG IS Diluu-
 An amusing incident occurred at
 the court house this week that tends
 to show that love is either totally
 blind or least indifferent. Moreno Lopez appeared before the clerk of the superior court for a marriage license and gave his own name as one of the contracting parties but
 when it came to remembering the name of his hearts desire he was at Ia loss. He attempted to refresh his memory but in vain and a recess was taken until he could find his fiance and ask her name The matter was finally adjusted and it is thought that after she has changed her name the devoted spouse will remember it. The prospective bridegroom was eith- Ter suffering from absent mindedness Or was indifferent as to whom he mar ried; however it is hoped that his life partner will hereafter have a corrective influence upon his mem- Ory.
