stitute of Washington, d. c., dur
ing the exploration of the Spanish Dig
gings country in Wyoming.
Hart Is really civil engineer by pro-
fession and was superintendent of
construction for the Thurman branch
Of the Delaware & Hudson railroad
in the Adirondacks, with force of
900 men under his orders. He held
the same position with the Titusville
Electric Traction company, at Titus
vile, and at Keevance, Ill.
He spent some time in South Dako-
Ia, where he drove the freight team
from Fort Pierre to Rapid City. He
punched cows for two years on the
Sioux Indian reservation at the mouth
Of the Cheyenne river. He was
foreman of II Ranch in WyO-
ming and manager of another ranch
at Willow for many years. He has
worn the insignia of city marshal in
earnest at Manville, Wyo., and been
deputy sheriff and brand inspector at
Counerse county In the same state.
One of his "jobs" was buyer and
advance man to handle all the inspec-
tons and shipping Of horses for the
British government, for the use of
the army. He has also seen his name
on the posters of the 101 Wild West
Show, touring the country as buck
ing horse rider. If there is any vari-
ETY. of Western life which Hart does
not know from personal experience,
it Is because it exists only in the imag-
ination of the writer's of so-called
western" stories and pictures.
He says that he went into pictures
because the work is so fascinating,
and he made his first hit in the Blue
bird photoplay called Loves Lariat,"
In which he supported Harry Carey
In a role which he managed to make
very funny, though there was really
not so very much in it to start with.

commission consolidation bill.

commission consolidation bill.
Springfield, Feb. 21.-Probably no
parts of the existing state govern
ment needs revision and cOnsOlda-
ton as badly as do the different
boards and commissions dealing with
the labor problems.
Though closely associated in mo-
tives and aims, the different bodies
of the state government dealing with
these questions always have Oper-
ated separately and most inefficient
ly. The consolidation bill allies these
different boards into one concrete
organization, every aim of which
will be to solve the labor problems
which are constantly coming up.
That such department will give the
highest efficiency is a fOregOne con-
clusiOn.
Though the industrial board
comes under the head of the depart
ment of labor, it will proceed with
the administration of the industrial
act, without any direction, super
vision or control by the director of
labor" The industrial board also will
administer the arbitration and con-
Citation act and the board of arbi-
tration and Cancellation is abolished.
The duties and powers of the de-
partment of labor follow:
1. To exercise the rights, powers
and duties vested by law in the COM
missioners of labor, its secretary,
other officers and employees.
2. To exercise the rights, powers
and duties vested by law in the SUI
perintendents and assistant sUperin-
tendents of free employment offices,
general advisory board of free en-
plOyment offices, local advisory
boards of free employment offices,
and other offices and employees of
free employment offices.
