COMPENSATION LAW
APPLIES TO CHILD

Philadelphia.-Ju McMichael has
ruled that the State workmen's COM
pensation law must be interpreted broad
ly and that compensation must be paid
to children whose fathers are killed in
industrial accidents.
The case centered about 4months-
old babe whose father was killed six
days before it was born. A workincns
compensation referee awarded benefits
to the mother and to the child until it
reaches the age of IS. Appeal was taxi
Ell to the compensation board, which
sustained the referee. The matter was
then taken to the courts.
1t was argued that when there is a
widow or widower entitled to compensa-
ton, no award can be made to the chill
dren. In dismissing this argument,
Judge McMichael said:
"An act of assembly of the character
Of the one in question should be inter-
prcted broadly and in harmony with the
those dependent upon deceased en-
ploye,
"Since dependents bound by the com
pensation feature of the law lose all
their remedies at common law, a literal

O'
Len1ieux Act Condemned By
Canadian Unionists;
Complete Collapse of Strike Investigation 'LauU

Street Railway Employees, called atten-
ton to claims in the United States that
the workingmen of Canada are glori-
ously satisfied with the Lemieux act"
This congress should tell the work
ingmen of the United States" said Sin
clair, that the wage earners of the Do
mnion are opposed to it."
The cabinet of the Dominion govern
ment was vigorously bombarded during
the discussion. 1t was charged that
aliens, held at detention camp because
of the war, were forced to break the
strike of Thetford miners who were de-
manding higher wages when the price
of asbestos had jumped from 5000 to
5000 a ton. Minister of Labor Crothers,
who addressed the convention on behalf
of the law, said he was not responsible
for the acts of the cabinet 1t was also
charged that the conciliator appointed
by the government in this case was a
stockholder in one of the Thetford as
bestos companies. To this the minister
of labor also pleaded ignorance.
Reputation of the widely-heralded
law by Canadian organized workers is a
hard jolt to employers who have de-
pended upon this legislation to tie men
to their jobs while they jockeyed to de
feat their workers demands by contin-
ued delay or, if necessary, by open re-
pudiation of the award of government
commissions. Under this law it was
illegal to even feed strikers who had not
complied with the act In one Nova
Scotia case an official of trade union
was fined for paying for groceries out
of funds of the union He was found
guilty of encouraging strikers" His
defense that the strikers were starving
was set aside.

STRIKE CASES DISMISSED.

Walsenburg, Colo.-Attorney General
Farrar has dismissed score of indict-
mcnts in this county which grew out of
the recent miners strike. This action is
in line with similar act taken several
weeks ago when large numbers of in
dictments in this and in Las Anmas
counties were nollied because of lack of
evidence. OF the hundreds of miners
that were indicted not one is now in Jail
and practically all have been given their
freedom The case OF John r. lawson.
who was found guilty of murder in the
first degree in Judge Iiillyer's court is
pending because of the action OF the
State supreme court in setting aside the
verdict and ordering Lawson's release
on bail.
When the State supreme court order
ed that Judge Hillyer should not try any
more miners cases, the coal operators
received their hardest blow and dismis-
sails OF indictments then began. Judge
Hillyer was formerly a coal operator
attorney and was appointed to the bench
by Governor Carlson after the legisla-
turc had created an additional judicial
district

Toronto, Ontario, Oct 7.-The Can
adian industrial disputes investigation
law-known as the Lemieux act-was
blown sltv high by the Canadian Trades
and Labor Congress convention, in ses-
sion in this city last week.
BY an almost unanimous vote the con-
vention called upon the government to
repeal this legislation.
The Lemieux act was passed in 1907
and served as a model for legislation
passed by the last Colorado State Legis-
lature, which has since been repudiated
by the federation of labor of that state.
Under the Lcmeux act it is illegal for
workers employed in public utility to
leave their employment until the govern
ment has appointed a commission to in
vestigate their grievance.
In opposing the act, delegates to the
Trades and Labor Congress used some
of the strongest terms ever heard in a
Dominion trade union meeting. Former
supporters of the act acknowledged they
had new viewpoints, and that close con-
tact with its operation convinced them
that it was impossible for labor organ
izations to attain the goal for which
they are struggling when forced to ac-
cept the law as a means of adujusting
differences with employers. 1t was
charged that the government used the
act to curtai the power of organized
labor. Delegates referred to the law as
'the lemon act" and that 1T is all for
the other fellow" Delegates Irvine of
the miners said 81 have never known
the employers to be put to a. disadvan-
tagc, but the employees have

SuFFRAGE-PRO

While Connecticut suffrsgists are making the greatest possible exertions 70 secure the passage of an amendment to the state constitution, they are by no means neglecting national politics. At the suffrage convention at Atlantic City. Mrs. Catt, the president, made a prediction that the Susan B. Anthony Amendment-the amendment to the constitution of the United States en. franchising women nationally would be passed in the next session of Con. gress.
 The chairman of the Congressional Committee of the c. W. S. A. is Mrs. A. E. S. Taylor of Norfolk. She is in charge of work for the susan B. An. thony for the State and National Asso. citations. Mrs. W. D. Ascough is chairman of the Connecticut Branch of the Congressional Union-the organiza. tion which was formed for the sole purpose ot pushing the amendment through Congress and securing its ratification. Both organizations are united in the one purpose of obtaining the passage by Congress of this amend. ment and every suffragist of every shade of opinion looks to the amend. ment of the United States constitution as the final goal of the suffrage move. ment.

 More patients have been cared for during the past year than ever before in its history, averaging l05 patients for the year, as against a previous high average of about 100.
 During the year legacies have been received from two estates amounting to about SIS, 900 but an equal amount is desired for the coming year. in order to increase the efficincy of the plant by building more farm cottages and nurses home, together with needed Improvements in the present building.

How to Control Cockroach Pest

The cockroach. one of the worst pests of the housewife, can be success fully controlled. Here Is the remedy given by George A. Dean, professor of entomology in the Kansas State Agri- cultural college, and used not only in homes, but in many big flour mills in Kansas.
 Get large pan or a deep jar, the deeper the better, and place a foul, damp dish rag in 1t. Set up sticks or laths on an easy slant from the floor to the pan or jar, so that there will be no difficulty for the reaches to get to the edge of the jar. The reaches will run up these laths or sticks and be attracted to the damp dish rag with in the jar, for they congregate in such places.
 Place this trap in the pantry or kitchen or wherever the reaches are found and leave it overnight, as the reaches hide and are quiet during the day and make their odious raids at night. The first thing in the morning pour boiling water over the rag to kill the reaches hiding in it, for they will surely be there if they are in the house.

The Children'S
Pitch Basket.


 Select a number of small fruit bas- kets all of the same size and have d box of checkers handy. Suppose you have five basE cts; on the bottom of one mark 20, on another 15, on two 2 and on the other o. Place the baskets i'll a row on the floor.
 Choose sides, giving the black check CTS to the leader on one side and the red checkers to the other side.
 One side lines up about ten feet away from the baskets, the leader giving each player a checker If any are left he keeps them and has the right to throw them. Each one in turn throws his checker into any basket. trusting to luck that it falls into a basket with a number on it. When all have played, the leader of that siGc turns up each basket to see its number and counts the number of checkers thrown into it. If there were two in basket 20 1t would count 40; if three in No. it would be 15, and those in basket o count nothing. Thus the score for that side would be B. The players on the other side then line up and play as the first did
 The order of the baskets must be changed occasionally, so that no one knows which is which. The game con tinues until a certain number-3OO or 5OO-as previously agreed upon. has been reached. The side first scorina that number of points is victorious.

LIGHTNING DOES NOT DAMAGE.

LIGHTNING DOES NOT DAMAGE.
 Lightning, that mysterious force gentrated in the power house of nature, which often sets fire to haystacks, frame houses and barns, has never been known to seriously damage:
 Railroad train or locomotives,
 Building with metallic grounded sides and roofs,
 Buildings which have frameworks composed wholly of metal,
 Grounded steel windmill towers,
 Steel battleships and cruisers,
 Business blocks and apartment houses in cities.
 The explanation of this phenomena is simple, for most of these objects con. duct electricity so we'll that electricity induced on the earth is drawn up through them and dispersed into the atmosphere, thus dissipatinR the charge of electricity before it becomes strong enough to produce flash. If light. ming stroke to one of these objects does occur, the mass of metal entering into its composition will usually conduct the current safely to the ground.

BALDwIN's FIRST LOCOMOTIVE.

The founder of the Baldwin Locomo. tive Works, the largest concern of its kind in the world, made a miniature engine and two cars, in the spring of 1881. The cars were capable of seat. ing four persons, and the outfit was placed on exhibition in Peale's Museum, Philadelphia, where it was surrounded by curious crowds. The next year he received an order from the German. town Railroad Co.,, for the construc. tion of a locomotive for their road. Although but single American me- chanic had succeeded in building one of any use, Baldwin boldly undertook it. At the time there was not black. smith in the city who could weld bar of iron more than an inch and quarter thick, and no one thought of attempt. ing to weld tire five inches wide and an inch and half thick. He had no proper tools, no patterns, no models, but, confidently relying on his genius and resolutions he went to work, and in six months had it finished and on the road. Crowds gathered along the line to see this self-moving monster drag a train Of cars after it. 1t was a great success. Soon after there SD. peared in the city papers the following notice:
 "Notice-The engine Quilt bysMr. Baldwin, with a train of cars, will run daily Commencing this day) when the weather is fair. When the weather is not fair, the horses will draw the cars the four trips"
 It is singular how the simplest con. triyances are often overlooked, while those requiring the most cousummate skill are wrought cut. Here is man who could, almost without tools, from his own ingenious brain construct a locomotive, and yet the simple remedy of a ''sand box," to keep the wheels from slipping, never occurred to him. The principle he doubtless had seen applied score of times to keep the human foot from slipping on the ice, but he never thought of adapti ng it to this and so in wet weather the looomo tive was stabbed and the horses turned out, and vice versa in fair weather.
