THE Island OF Bali Is an enchant-
ing place, judging from the Bal
Boheme which the Arts Club
gave last evening in the Will
lard Hotel bathrooms. This local or
ganlzation, which presented its If
teenth annual ball last night, gave
the most beautiful and elaborate ball
OF its history. No effort was spared
to make the setting appropriate, and
the pageant, native festival, with
costumes. music, dances and pageantry
as authentic as white man can make
them. Miss Bertha Noyes, who was
chairman of the ball. supervised all
these details and accepted nothing
that was not truly Balinese. Ethel
Hoffman Kane, one of her vice chair
men. looked after the dancing to see
that every move of the body, arms
and head were after the mode of the
Balinese, which is so similar to other
peoples of the Far East as to be easily
confused, and yet 50 distinctive as to
be quite different from any other.
The Arts Club is to be congratulated
that this year no one taking part in
the pageant was allowed to compete
for the prize. Therefore, the grand
march was shorter and the selection
OF winners took less time than usual.
Mr.. William Hannah won the first
prize for the most beautiful costume.
He was Balinese, with gold metal
cloth skirt to his ankles, native SAN
dals, and over his shoulders and to
the waistline the armorlike vest of
white decorated in gold, standing out
beyond the shoulders. On his head
was the small skull cap of white.

The variations are great and irreg-
ular; but it is clear that the heaviest
overcrowding is in the south, and the
least, on an average, in the Far West
though Syracuse, New York, is the
lowest on the list.
Rural CrOwding Also Found
But far from all the crowding is in
the cities. The survey was carried to
rural counties, with startling results
I'm Livingston and Linn counties, Mo-.
1874 per cent of the families had more
people than rooms. In Crawford
Ostego and Roscommon counties,
Mich, the proportion rose to PIP per
cent; in Howell county, Mo-, to 3l.4
per cent; and in l6 rural counties OF
Georgia, it was 43.6 per cent. In Is
per cent of the rural dwellings in
those Georgia counties, there were z
or more persons to the room.
Lack of sanitary facilities in towns
is quite as serious as overcrowding
The figures on this matter are given
by districts, and since no city of 5O0,-
600 or more was studied in the South
starting with the next smaller cities
the table shows the percentage OF
town dwelling families which eithe,
had no flush toilet facilities inside

Building Program
Given Assembly
Legislature Also Considers
Number of Relief
Measures
.(By Ohio Labor News Service)


Columbus, O.-Called into a third
special session last week to formulate
and approve an adequate relief pro-
gram, the 92nd General Assembly of
Ohio was again asked by Governor
Martin l.. Davey to approve $l5, ,OOO,-
900 state welfare building program.
A large number of measures sug-
gesting various methods of raising
funds for relief purposes were intro
duced by members of the Assembly
ranging from legalizing gambling to
re-enactment of the present utilities
tax through 1910, together with ad-
missions, beverage, malt and wort
taxes.
Several measures which would per-
NIT the issuance of bonds by munich
palities in anticipation Of revenue col
lections, with only majority vote OF
the electorate necessary instead OF
the present 65 per cent, were intro
duced.
Other measures provided for state
income tax, and state tax on "self-
serve" groceries and meat markets. Ar
annual license fee of 81, 200 for each
"self-serve" store, and $500 for each
additional store of that nature in the
same political subdivision, is provided
in the latter measure.
An 11-member committee was ap
pointed in the House of Representa-
tives to visit Cleveland, Toledo anc
other larger cities in the state to study
actual relief needs and report back
to the Lower House before action is
taken on any Of the relief measures.
Senator Bart Mcintyre, Cleveland
introduced Governor Davey's proposed
welfare building measure in the Sen
ate, where it was referred to the Tax
alton Committee for study.
Under the provisions of the bill, {

Jump Reported
In Occupdtiondl
Disease Claims
Analysis Shows Marked In
crease In 1887 Over
Previous Years
(By Ohio Labor News Service)

(By Ohio Labor News Service)
Columbus, O.-Occupational disease
claims filed with the Industrial Com
mission in 1897 show marked in
crease over previous years, according
to an analysis Of the record by Super
intendent Thomas P. Kearns of the
Division of Safety and Hygiene.
The total number of claims filed in
1886 was 1888, while in 1887 the num-
Der increased to 1894. A total of 156
claims filed last year were held non
compensate at the time of filing.
In July, 1887, silicosis was added
to the list of compensate occupation
al disease claims, and after that date
a number of silicosis claims were filed,
but only six were considered compen-
sable.
Many claims for silicosis have
been filed so far this year, indicating
that they will serve to increase oc-
cupational disease claims in 1888. Eff
forts being made to control dust by
national and state agencies may re-
suit in a reduction in the number of
silicosis claims.
Skin diseases were responsible for
a very large percentage of the occu-
pational disease claims filed during
1887, 1,12O claims being filed in that
classification, or 155 more than in
1886.
Lead poisoning was credited with
| 2O9 claims, 95 more than last year
due largely to conditions in three
plants, in one of which there were So
cases, in another 25 and in the third
IL.
Bursitis, commonly known as
"housemaid's knee" and tenosynovitis
an Inflammation of the tendon sheets
of the forearm, gave rise to TIA cases
only slight increase over 1886.
Superintendent Kearns pointed out
in his report that the largest number
of claims came in September, 191 be-
ing filed in that month, 116 being for
skin diseases.
This indicated, the report said, that
skin diseases are more prevalent in
the summer months, due probably to
the action of caustic or irritating
dusts coming in contact with the skin
while the employee is perspiring free
ly.
Proper protection of the skin dur
ing hot weather, Kearns pointed out,
will do much toward eliminating these
hazards.
