THIRD DEFEAT SUFFERED BY LABOR IN ASSEMBLY Bill to Limit Use of Prison Made Goods Lost in House. Labor forces in the house of representatives were licking their wounds today and soothing the third and latest scar acquired in attempting to put on statute books laws advocated by unions. The last wound was the vote 44-34 late Thursday which killed the bill restricting the use of prison-made goods to state institutions. Lead by Miles J. Furnas (Rep., Randolph) opponents of the measure contended that it would make prisoners idle and result in riots; while proponents of the bill declared that with countless thousands out of work labor was being hamstrung by the cheaper made prison product. Earlier in the session labor was unsuccessful in obtaining passage of the “full crew” billand'another requiring the labeling of prisonmade products.

—Advertisement— CHILD’S COUGH WAS GONE BEFORE DOCTOR ARRIVED
Almost Instant Relief Came When He Phoned Worried Mother What to Do Glad that she took the advice of her doctor. Mrs. C. P. Murphy, like vast numbers of mothers in Indianapolis and vicinity, realizes how quickly a child's cold can now be ended by home use of a pleasant hospital method and how much needless misery and risk is caused by putting off the right treatment. For a day or so her little daughter, Louise, had shown signs of a cold. She didn't pay much attention to it at first, thinking that the cold would soon go away. But that night the child kept her awake coughing and she became alarmed when the thermometer showed temperature. Then she called the doctor. He advised Mrs. Murphy to immediately give the child Ayer's Cherry PectoraF—a- quick remedy that has proved to be of unusual value in hospital treatment of children’s colds. • In. just, a little while she had stopped coughing and was sleeping - quietly. When the doctor called next day her fever had disappeared. congestion was clearing
NAB BOOZE IN PHILADELPHIA’S ‘TONIESr CLUB Second Dr/* Raid in Two Days on High Society Lairs Staged. By United Press PHILADELPHIA, Feb. 27—The placid routine of the exclusive Philadelphia Club slowly is returning to normal today after police raiders walked into the club Thursday and confiscated liquor said to be worth SIOO,OOO. The raid, coming only twelve hours after Director of Public Safety Schofield personally raided the Manufacturers Club, caused great excitement among those named as “clubmen.” Despite the fact the director conducted the raid on the Manufacturers Club, of which he was a member until his resignation immediately following the raid, he was unaware that the Philadelphia Club had been raided until informed by newspapermen. Backs His Policemen He dispatched Assistant Superintendent Taylor to collect the details while he announced that he was “back of any policeman who does his duty.” Police could have picked no more exclusive club in the Quaker city, or in fact, in the east, than the establishment selected Thursday. The Philadelphia club is one of those places in which a member is born, not made. , The “gate” never has been “crashed” in the years of its existence. Even the Manufacturers Club, which boasts among its members numerous leaders in the social, political, Industrial and financial life of the city, is not as exclusive as the Philadelphia Club. f Steward Is Arrested After the raiders had entered the building oh a search and seizure warrant they made their way to the third floor, where in Room 14 they discovered hundreds of bottles of preprohibition liquor, they declared. It took five patrol wagons to cart the stuff away. In the last wagon they also took R. S. Sconrinisen, the club steward, | on a charge of illegal possession of j liquor. Several social prominent members posted bond for him.
