LABOR NOTES

Superintendent GAM, Of the Derry
mills, York, Pa, the employees of which
are on strike for better conditions and
recognition of union labor, refused any
conference. In consequence those en-
ployees who had not affiliated with the
strikers handed in applications and,
with almost 400 more, formed local
organization, which is now associated
with the American Federation Of
Labor.
A new law will soon become oper-
ative in Switzerland compelling EN-
ployers to provide strike pay for en-
ployees. A London business man who
owns a factory in Switzerland employ
ing $50 persons stated his manager had
reported the law would compel the
factory to set aside $4,000 annually to
the workers unemployment fund. The
fund is collected and controlled by the
state.

WILLIAM 6. HART'S
 NEW PHoToPLAv ls QUITE DRAMATIC

William s. Hart's new Aircraft pic, ture. "The Border Wireiess," which will be shown at the Coliseum thea Ire next Sunday and Monday. has been designated by those who have had prevews of the production as ? picture with real thrill. oi course, every Hart picture has a thrill. q consistent story with action in every foot. but the fact that this oAe is concerned largely with the machina.ions of band of Hun plot ters fin America. on the border o' Mexico, gives added interest and en ables the star to depict certain nhases of the war at home which are not only timely. but decidedly fas cinating.
 It gives Hart chance to weai khaki; presents him first as bandit depicts his reform when patriotic inspiration arouses him to the fac' that he is atheart man of honor; shows his effort to enter the army temporarily frustrated by his record which is exposed by German. and his final pardon and acceptance wher he upcovcrs d dastardly plot and ex poses the wireless operations ot tho spies. whose instruments are hidden in an old mine.

TIT DEPENDS ON THE ROPE

Tom Mix, who has made famous his delineation of Western characters has a reputation for being the most
 fearless stunt" performer on the screen. In his latest photodrama
 "Mr. Logan, U s. A." which is be ing shown at the Palace theatre Sun
 day, he shows that this reputation is
 not altogether unearned.
 In one of his scenes, Tom Mix was to rescue Kathleen Connors, his lead ing lady, from a ledge on a noun tain side where she had fallen while picking flowers.
 Tying his lariat to the pomme of his saddle, Mix let himself down to the ledge, distance of 50 feet Here he placed the rope around his waist and taking Miss Connors ir his arms he called to his horse "Old Blue"
 Obedient to his order. the horse started to pull and Tom Mix with his leading lady in his arms dangled UT the side of the mountain. Below bim was a sheer drop of several thousand feet. If Old Blue had stumbled o' the rope had fraycd as it was dragged lover the rocks. this story would nave been a obituary to Mir. Mix and Miss | connors. but as usual the Mix brand of luck held good and the two ar rived safely at the summit but mol without a feeling of relief on tne part of the spectators.
