Mid-Month II, June
BY Mabel Kinney Hall.

Mid-month it is, in June, the mating time
When life is poesy, not needing rhyme;
When wedding VOWS but seal the happiness
That love has come in measure full to bless.
Mid-month it is in June for waiting hearts,
Where eager hope, pleasure pure imparts.
Oh June, it is, the time of wedding VOWS;
When love its full expression, faith allows;
When men and maidens cease alone to roam;
But bind the blessed ties of hearth and home
Oh June. it is, the chain of happy days;
When birds and blossoms swell the hymn of praise.
Mid June is here. Give greeting, old and young.
Oh welcome June with loyal heart and tongue.
You brides and grooms of other Junes, unite
With those whose present hour is new delight.
Mid June is here, its blessing to impart
To every waiting, eager, mating heart

Government Cuts Bid

Washington, April 20.-The E.
w. Bliss company New York, the
only private long range torpedo
manufacturing concern In this
country, has felt the effect of a re-
cent statute which permits the CIV
ernment to set a reasonable" price
for war munitions or supplies.
The company bid for terpedoes
was declared too high by Secretary
of Navy Daniels. The company
cut $500 on each torpedo, but this
was unsatisfactory, and the matter
was referred to the bureau of or
dinance with instructions o esti-
mate a reasonable price. The
bureau reported cut of 81, 500 on
each torpedo, and the Bliss com
pany was forwarded cold, matter
of fact letter, in which it was stated
that:
These prices have been deter
mined upon in consultation with
this bureau, are reasonable, and un
doubtedly will result in an eminent
ly fair and equitable profit to the
company.
You will, therefore, proceed
with the manufacture of these tor
pedoes, giving them priority over
all other work, and will do your
utmost to deliver them within the
time specified in the contracts un-
der consideration.
As the law permits the govern
ment to seize the Bliss plant, the
company announced that it would
gladly accept the order at the plice
named /"
This transaction saved the gov.
ernment s., 1913, 500. The stee
trust has also felt the effect Of the
new law and has reduced price.

Injunction A MenaCa.

Sacramento, Cal, April 20-"If
there is a law against violence in
California, and there surely is, the
people have already issued an in
junction against 1t and have pro-
vided how each shall be punished"
said Presiden Furuseth Of the In
ternational Seamen' union, In sup
porting an anti-injunction bill at a
public hearing.
When the courts of equity take
Jurisdiction over and issue injunc-
tions in labor disputes, he coz
tinued, they do SO TO protect bust
ness, which. under late rulings by
several courts, is held to tie pro-
perty. These rulings are con-
demned by other courts, which hold
that relations between employers
and employees, between buyer and
seller, are personal relations, and,
as such, if regulated at all, are reg
ulated by statute or common law
only"
The campaign of Michigan un-
ionists against injunctions has en-
ragged employers association, which
make the childish plea that the
workers would break laws.

Small Tips LagaIized By
New York Court.

Albany, N. Y. April 20. While
trade unionists protest against the
tip system and urge definite liv-
ing. the appellate division of the
supreme court for the third depart
ment holds that tips, If not too
large, are to be considered as wages
An extra large tip belongs to the
proprietor.
The wife and son of a taxicab
driver who was killed asked the
court to award compensation based
on wages that covered both the
money paid by the taxi company
and the tips paid by customers.
The insurance company that in
sured the taxi people against loss
under the workmen's compensation
law centended that tips are not a
part of wages. The court decided
that they are, and In his opinion,
Presiding Judge Kellog said:
THE employe could not have re-
ceived the tips If the employer had
not put him In the way of getting
them, and we may we'll conclude
that the tips were an advantage re-
ceived from the employer similar
In effect to board, lodging or rent
furnished in addition to the money
wages paid.
The person rendering the SER
vice considers that the tip Is his as
matter of right, and involves no
particular favor. An extra large
tip may be appropriated, but the
ordinary tip is considered pay
ment of money actually due. The
usual tips have come to be con-
sidered a part of the cost of the en-
tertainment at a hotel, upon a
sleeper or public conveyance, and
1t is realized both by the person
paying and receiving them that II
Is a part payment of the wages
which the employer compels the
perssn served to pay"

Cant Strike Law Totally
DiSeredit0d.

Denver, April 20.-Colorado's
can't strike" law, which was
widely heralded as the solution for
industrial for ills, Is SO thoroughly
disc~edited by organized workers
that state officials are laughed at
when they threaten to jail or fine
uniorists who dare quit their en-
ployment without the consent CT
some politician.
Denver painters and carpenters
are the latest to make good the no.
tifcation to the last legislature that
If this law Is not repealed, workers
will exercise their rights as Ameri-
can citizens
Members of Painters union No.
79 were ordered by the state In
dustrial commission to remain at
work until their wage demands
were investigated. The union S
officials notified the commission
that strike would be called If
wages were not rated p cents an
hour. Many contractors signed the
agreement, but 200 of the 700
painters were forced to suspend
work. The commission then cited
about a score of the strikes to ap-
pear before this august body and
give testimony" Threats of fine
and Imprisonment were laughed at
by the strikers, who declared that
they would stay in Jail or at union
headquarters until their demands
were granted. After feur days the
commission gravely announced that
the painters demands were just
and should be granted. The con-
tractors yielded and now pay their
workers S5 day instead Of $4 40
The Carpenters District Council
has had a similar experience with
the state industrial commission,
which Insisted that this wage
movement should be investigated
according to law. The carpenters
expressed regrets, but announced
that in the management of their
own affairs their date for suspend
ing work would not permit of state
investigation. The contractors then
entered into conference with their
employees and after a short session
wages were raised 5 cents an hour
until October Is, when an addi-
tional 5 cents an hour will meet the
carpenters original demand.

TRAPPING A SUBMARINE.
The Wire Rope Net That Catches and
pooms the Vessel.

The Wire Rope Net That Catches and
pooms the Vessel.
A submarine net is made of wire
rope about as thick as lead pencil,
and the meshes are of great size
about ten or fifteen feet square. The
net has floats on top that keep bob
bing up and down like the float on a
f1shline, and on the bottom are weights
that keep the whole thing In a perpen-
dicular position.
The submarine cannot submerge to
very great depths on account of the
pressure, 200 feet being about the linn
ihng depth 1t sails innocently along,
therefore until 1t pushes It's nose into
these meshes The net now trails
Its progress revealing the fact that
something below is supplying the mo-
tive power.
Perhaps the net suddenly stops.
That means that the hidden submarine
has stopped its navigators having
made the horrible discovery that they
are trapped, or perhaps the net has
become twisted In the propeller. Un-
der these conditions the wise subma-
rine rises to the surface. 1t surrenders,
becomes the property Of the enemy,
and it's crew are made prisoners.
If 1t does not take such action one
OF two things Will happen. The enemy
will wait upon the surface until the
submersible comes up, or If it starts
moving the enemy will follow until
the inevitable uprising. But perhaps
the surface commander gets impatient.
In such a case he can let bomb
down into the water, which will ex-
plode when it touches the roof of the
submarine OF course the submerged
submarine knows that this bomb Is
likely to drop at any minute. The
psychology of such a situation tends
to persuade the imprisoned crew to
surrender.-W Worlds Work.

Orsgon's Wage Law For
Women Is Legal.

United States supreme court has
upheld the Oregon mir imum wage
law for women and the theory of

The court sustained the act by a

judges, who simply announced that
the law was upheld. Justice Bran
