TRAIN JUMPING
BRINGS PENALTY
Railroad Man Barred From
Compensation; Boarding
house Board No Claim

An interesting opinion has just
been given by Chairman Harry A.
Mackey, of the State Compensation
Board, in a claim for compensation
by q railroad man hurt after jump
ing train and who claimed that ne
was on his way to his boardlnghouse
where a callboard was maintained.
Mr.. Mackey lays down the law on
the proposition.
The opinion SAYS: "Peter Kunin
was employed by the Pennsylvania
Railroad Company as a freight
brakeman. In consequence OF his
duties incident to his employment ne
reported at the Shire Oaks yards on
May 10, 1917, went to the office
where he was checked off for the
day and in company with fellow
employe started for his boarding
house a distance of about two miles.
He chose to walk upon the tracks of
the defendant in making this trip.
After walking a short distance
freight train passed going in the
same direction as himself when he
and his companion jumped upon thls !
train and rode to a point near their |
destination. While attempting to
alight from the train he fell under !
meath the cars receiving injuries |
which resulted in the amputation of
urged in the behalf of his petition |
for compensation that he was still in |
the course of his employment, mas !
much as he had started for his |
clearinghouse where the defendant !
had an arrangement with the pro- |
prietress whereby for the accommo- |
dation of her boarders, upon notice !
from the employer, she would post |
upon a blackboard the hours when /
1a,vl tod tFN
port for work.
1--WE cannot find that this arrange |
ment strengthens the plaintiffs case. !
The defendant did not own nor OPP /,
crate the clearinghouse, nor was it |
located upon its property and the |
evidence established the fact that |
there was no connection whatsoever |
between the defendant and this |
boardinghouse. The claimant had !
finished his days work. Had he !
been injured while leaving the prem |
ises of the defendant because OF the !,
operation of the defendants busi- |
ness, in the absence of any proof |
that he had been engaged in inter- |
state commerce, his right to COM !
pensation would be perfectly clear. |
In this case, instead of quitting the !
employers premises, he chose TO use /
its tracks as highway and in addi- |
tion thereto elected to become tres
passer upon one of it's trains, for his |
own convenience. He was not in the
course of his employment and al
though he was injured upon the
premises of the defendant because /
of the operation of the defendants +
business, nevertheless, his presence .
at that particular point was not re-
quired because of his employment by |
the defendant nor was the claimant
engaged in furthering the employ
er's business"

New York. = President Wilson has
decided 20 sail on the George WASH
ington instead of the Agamemnon

Carpenters, upholsterers and paint

MINOR OFFENDERS
 MONOPOL|zE COURT

In police court yesterday many cases were tried which had been hainging over since Saturday.
 Automobilists were heavy sufferers because they are constantly in posi- ton to commit crime, and it is very tempting sometimes for excitable driv- CTS to cut corner or run over a fire hose. pr. w. c. Lentz, while racing to the aid of patient was observed by the police to be going at the rate of 30 miles an hour between Portland and Willetta streets on Central avenue. He was fined $10. Dr. W. C. Ellis was also fined S10 for speeding on East More land. Leo Smith, who drove over a fire hose in a down town district was found guilty 6 the charge and fined S5. W. OBrien was fined for cutting corners which was the same offense that S. Medina was fined for at one and the same time. fine of $5 was levied. $. W. Higley cut a corner, too, and was immediately required to pay to the city the sum of $5. G. H. Reuben had to pay s10 for going faster than the law allows along North Central avenue.
 The only cases which were not con- corning the misdeeds of autosts were those of Martha Bell, Alice Carlyle, Georgia Caldwell and Lucy Farnum, charged with vagrancy. Lucy Far mum, having a ticket for other climes in her pocketbook was found guilty and given a sentence of 50 days in jail,

are just taking cold, and it is this. Breathe deep, energetically and repeat edly till the cold retires.
 This seems very simple and rather bold in us to suggest it, but many people have tried it and say it works like charm. Many will say. the cold would leave anyhow. We don't think our friends, the doctors, would urge this objection. The remedy has it's season. The cold is generally located in the capillaries, where the blood. made sluggish by drafts or other ex- posures. becomes clogged up and inter- feres with the circulation, which is really the definition of cold. Now. deep breathing oxidizes the blood, puts pep into it, and it goes down the veins with a rush, breaks through the clogged capillaries and restores the circulation.
 If the explanation is not scientific, we don't ask anything for it, and if it doesn't cure you, it is because the capillaries are stuffed full before you try it.
