disappeared and the three captives
tainted the posse with their inability

get caught and for some time it look
ed as though they were right. The
posse beat the hills to no avail for
four hours. Finally the man, who
later gave his name as Henry Bogue,
was discovered by accident in shall

with only the tip Of his nose showing
His discovery came when one Of the

"'It was also the Mexican govern

Of the two points which constitute

COURT REVERSES ITSELF
TO UPHOLD LABOR LAW
UNUSUAL PROCEDURE TAKEN BY
WISCONSIN HIGH TRIBUNAL.
Determine What Glasses of Work
Are Dangerous and Unhealthful

Tho Wisconsin state supreme court
has reversed itself in the case OF the
state v. IanCc Canning company and
now rules that the state industrial com
mission may determine what classes of
labor are dangerous OF prcjudicial to the
health. safety and welfare of women and
how long they may be engaged in a spe-
ciiic occupation without detrimental con-
sequences.
The court held a contrary opinion last
May when 1t ruled that that portion of
the law was unconstitutional because il
was a legislative function and the state
legislature has no right to delegate its
power TO a commission.
The state asked the court to review
the case, and this petition was supported
hy the state Federation OF Labor. In
it, later decision the court withdrew its
former ruling, but declined to mark the
boundaries of the commissions authority
on the ground that each order must b.
Judged hv itself. The court saws that
the law should he upheld for the rea-
son that the authority thus conferred
invests the commission with no arbitrary
and uncontrolled discretion. but directs
them to ascertain the facts and to apply
the rules Of law thereto under the pre-
scrihod rules and conditions Such &C.
tion is not legislative. but has the prom.
incncc Of executive and ministerial party
within the requirements provided in the
act.
In the earlier decision. on the question
Of the proper hours for part day and
part night work, Justice Rosenberg
ruled that since it was clearly the aim
Of the Legislature TO limit the hours OF
labor for womcn's work. no matter what
part Of the day these hours covered, tho
limitation as to the amount of work
done in any one day. meaning thereby
the period from midnight TO midnight, is
limited TO 10 hours" This part of the
former ruling is again upheld. the Ian.
glagc of the latter ruling would seem

PENSION SYSTEM
FOR COAL MINERS
Plan Being Evolved by Com
mittee of u. Nj. W.
Propose Per Capita Tax Of rs Cents
Month on 100000 Members to Pro-
vide Monthly Pension Of $40

approximately 100000 coal miners in
the United States and Canada will be
relieved from the fear of pauperism in
their old age by the terms of an old
age pension plan to be submitted to the
next biennial convention of the United
Mine Workers OF America by a special
committee OF its members appointed by
President John p. White.
The committee, consisting of William
Mitchell OF Iowa, John Hutchison of In
diana, and Evan Evans of Illinois, is
now drafting its final report after an
investigation lasting four months. 1t
will advise against the establishment of
n home for aged miners, on the ground
that men of advanced years should be
enabled to obtain relief without leav-
ing their families and living in an in
stitution.
A per capita tax OF 25 cents per month
to be levied on the 100000 members of
the United Mine Workers during the
next five years and the payment after
1928 OF a monthly pension of $50 to all
miners more than 65 years of age, is
recommended by the committee. Miners
under 65 years Of age who are incapac-
itated by accident and who have no
means OF support would receive a like
amount. No miner would be eligible
until he had been continuously a mem
Der OF the organization for tn years
and had paid the pension tax for five
years.
The committee was appointed by
President John =. White last spring un-
der authority OF resolution adopted
at the last biennial convention in In
iianapolis It, report viii be acted upon
ar the next convention in Indianapolis
IN january, 1915. It has visited the
homes for aged union members main

ical Union at Colorado Springs and by
the Print EE Prc-smcn and Assistants
Union ~ RoCcrsville. Tenn as well a.
several homes maintained by fraterual
societies and by the government for old
soldiers.
As q result Of its investigations. the
committee estimates that at least 1000
miners. on The basis Of the present mem
bor-hip, would he eligible for pensions
under the proposed plan. II a per capita
tax Of 25 cents a month is levied by the
next biennial convention. the committee
estimates that al the end Of five year-.
during which no pensions would be paid.
the organization would have a pension
fund Of s5.oG0.oO0 principal the interest
on which would thereafter largely meet
the cost Of the system. Payments could

or the per capita pension tax reduced.

Wher- ever the trees are so badly injured that there is little hope of their recov- cry, it is best to take them out and promptly destroy them. In the case of trees which are only slightly affect ed and especially in the case of large and valuable trees, bisulphid of car bon can be used effectively.
