LelsonrliiB, deputy factory lusieetor, preferred charge before Alderman Keller against Mrs. Tevllla Transue of MO North Third Street for violating the law in permitting her 12-year-old son George to worn in a factory. Mrs. Transue foiiio time ago appeared before Alderman McCloskny and secured a certificate permitting the boy to go to work by representing that he was 13 years and 6 months of ajra and had a knowledge of the English language. The age at which children are granted certificates is 13 years and over.

Mrs. Leisenring saw the boy at work nnd questioned him as to his age. He was unable in, loll her. When a constable visited the mother she snld she had given the boy's age to the alderman as over 13 years but that she had made a mistake as the lad had not yet reached that age. The arrest of the woman was then ordered.

She was released on her own recognizance for a hearing on Tuesday evening. The violations of the child labor law have been on the increase lately In this vicinity nnd the factory Inspector Is determined that the guilty parties shall be made to respect the law. The principal offenders are foreigners who have no compunction about swearing to any age for their children that' they might he put to work in the factories. Mis. Leisenring is to be commended for her firm stand in the matter.

Slip hopes that a few prosecutions will set such an example as to prevent future violations. CARSON SWrRN IN. NEW ATTORNEY GENERAL NOT A POLITICIAN. Hampton L. Carson of Philadelphia was on Thursday sworn in us attorney general by Deputy Secretary of the Commonwealth Lewis E.

Glenn, piloted him there.
