by an employe while in it's employ in cases where defendant has been guilty of no fault, want of care or neglect of duty and because the statute attempts to give plaintiff the right to recover judgment for personal injuries for which said judgment is sought were contributed to by plaintiffs negli- gence.
 Justice Cunningham in his opinion affirming the judgment of the lower court says in part as follows:
 Appellant contends that Chapter VI of Title 14 is void for the reason it's terms conflict with Section 3 and of Article XVIII of the state consti. tuition.
 Section V is that:
 '''The defense of contributory neg ligence or of assumption of risk shall in all cases whatsoever, be question of fact and shall, at all times, be left to the jury.
 This section does not restrict the power of the legislature to modify or abolish the defense of contributory negligence The restriction contained in the section is clear that no law shall ne enacted winch attempts to make the defense of contributory negligence or assumption of risk when interposed. determinable by the courts as matters of law, but such defense are made to depend up on facts when they are properly in, terposable and interposed they are required to be established by a pre- pcnderance of the evidence to the satisfaction of the jury. Whether the plaintiffs negligence contributed to the wrong, or whether the plaintiff assumed the risk and danger from which the wrong arose, must be de termined as a fact from the evidence

by the jury.

by the jury.
 Section commands the legisla- ture to enact an employers liability law, by the terms of which any en- ployer shall be liable for the death or injury of workmen employed in all hazardous occupations named, and any other industry designated by the legislature, whenever such death or injury is caused by any accident due to condition or conditions of such occupation, except when such death or injury has been caused by the neg ligence of the employe killed or in- jured."
 The opinion recites single re- striction placed upon the legislature in carrying out this constitutional mandate. That restriction is found in the foregoing words, except when such, etc. A careful examination, said the court of the act, discloses no violation of that limitation on the power of the legislature.
 Concerning the allegation of con- tributory negligence set forth in the defendants answer, the court says The defendant having in it's answer admitted that it's negligence in part was the cause of the damage by set ting forth charge of contributory negligence against the plaintiff au- thorized a verdict against the defen- dant in any event The matters left open for inquiry were the amount of the damage the plaintiff was entitled to recover as measured by the allega- tions of the complaint and the evi, dence, and whether the accident was due to a condition or conditions of employment and such as is unavoid. able"
 Replying to allegations of irreg- ularity in the trial court, the opinion proceeds: While the record dis closes many departures from the ideal trial of lawsuit, these departures were consented to, acquiesced in, sub- mitted to or indulged by appellant

DECISION RENDERED IN EMPLOYEES
 LIABILITY ACT
Supreme Court Makes Most important Ruling Upon Two Cases Which Sus- tans Constitutionality of Measure.

Upholding the constitutionality of the employers liability law, two yer diets for damages awarded against two Arizona mining corporations for in juries received by employees, yester- day were affirmed by the supreme court. The mining companies are the Inspiration Consolidated Copper con- pany of Gila county and the Superior and Pittsburg Copper company of Co., chise county.
 In the latter case, Frank Tomich, few hours after he first had com menced his labors for the mining com pany, was injured and commenced action against the company. basing it on the employers liability law He was awarded $S,0OO. The company demurred to the action on the ground that obedience to the liability law vio lated the Fourteenth Amendment by depTiving the defendant of it's property w1trout due process of law in impos in. unlimited liability on it as an en- pioyer for personal injuries sustained

without objection, and do not appear affirmatively upon the record to have worked prejudice to appellants rights The verdict returned is large in amount, but that matter lay with the jury. No question is made that the verdict is not sustained by substantial evidence''
 Much of the same ground was gone over in the case of the Inspiration company but in that case contribute ry negligence on the part of the ap- police was alleged that damage he suffered, an injury to his eyes, was the result of his failing to have proper treatment in time. The judgmnt of the lower court in this case was also affirmed. This opin- ion too, was written by Justice Gun ningham and was concurred in by Justice Franklin. Justice Ross dis sented and announced that he would later file his opinion.

COIH WEBER TO PRODUCE FILMS.

Lois Weber last week began work on her new contract
 Miss Weber is to have her own stu dio, occupied only by a single com pany. in which she will direct a series of pictures to be known as Lois Web CT Productions. For years, in fact, since the inception of the motion pie ture industry, the names of Lois Web CT and her husbanr Phillips Smalley, have been synonymous with pictures. Now in studio of her own design, Miss Weber hopes and expects to make more attractive and expressing pie lures than eyer before.
 This new studio is to be unique among the many in Southern Califor- mia. Feeling that the average plant in which pictures are filmed is too much the merely barren workshop, Miss Wcb- CT has leased a private residence in Hollywood. Cal, with it's surrounding grounds and gardens. Here stages are being built. lights installed, and when completed there will result a moderI, and perfectly equipped studio, set in surroundings more stimulating and far pleasanter than those inclosed by the customary high board fence.
 Miss Weber is done with the purely propa ganda picture with which she has past. though she does not intend te produce story unless it is founded on vital idea of permanent interest

THE GARDEN OF KNOWLEDGE" IS A PRETTY PICTURE


 There are several most interesting things to be said of "The Garden of Knowledge" which opened at the Col iseum yesterday afternoon and kept on continuously until II o'clock last night. First the pictures which make up the five reels, are most elaborate. The in side history of this picture is that it was taken by many of the best moving picture camera men themselves and they all vied with one another in selecting the prettest of outdoor scenery and the prettiest and most shapey girls and women to appear in the nude in the many scenes.
 Secondly, the subject treated. that of Eusenics, but aside from this doc Urine elaborated upon, this subject is one that both men and women are now giving more attention to that has been given to it for years. Coming right down to everyday matter of fact, "The Garden of Knowledge" brings up the questions that have arisen in many states. when should men and women marry? What condition should their body and mind be in when this i'm portant step of life is taken and when the next important issue of this we'd lock is realized that of bringing chill dren into the world. a
 There is nothing lewd in the picture. There is only one place where there is any suggestion of sensualism, and even at that, this part lies in one's own mind for there is no title, nothing but suggestion.
 "rhe Garden of Knowledge has come heralded as a record breaker. The large numbers seeing this picture at tests to this fact It is a picture made so plain that men and women of all classes can see it and not blush-for it modestly teaches 8 lesson of today and one that is becoming paramount.
