"All employes of the state, with the exception of heads of departments, will bo affected by the decision of the su prome court in the case involving the eight-hour law against the state board of control," declared Labor Commis sioner Hoff today. "The impression prevails that the case only .'elates to employes of state institutions, but that is i mistake, and if the court sustains my contentions, clerks, stenographers, etc, in all stuto departments from that of the governor down will work only eight hours daily, or 48 hours weekly.

John Lytle, in Nebraska Jail, Believed to Be Slayer of Portland Tot Near ly Three Years Ago. SIMILAR CRIME CONFESSED BY LYTLE IN JAIL THERE Description of Man Tallies With That of Man Hunted by Police Fruit lessly for Years. UNITED PRUS8 LEASED Wlltl. Portland, Ore., Jan. 26. In John Lyt le, under arest in Grand Island, Neb., for criminal assault upon a youcg girl, which he has confessed, Detective Ser geants Day and Hyde believe that they at last caught the murderer of five-year old Barbara Holzman and cleared up a mystery which has baffled the police since March, 1911. Mrs. Bertha Nelson, proprietor of the rooming house at 107 Russell street, where the Holzman girl was murdered, when she saw the picture of Lytle last night partially identified him. She said that he looked much like the man who rented from her March 14, 1911, the room in which the mutilated body of the girl was later found. Immediately following the discovery of the crime in 1911, the police issued circulars 'which were sent to all cities or the Western Hemisphere. It was in answer to this circular that Gustav SievorB, sheriff of llall county, Neb., wrote concerning Lytle, who is in jail there. Lynching Is Averted. Lytle was the central figure of a near-lynching in Grand Island, when, on September 23, 1913, he attempted fo assault an eight-year-old girl. Her cries aroused neighbors, and they sur rounded the place of the as mult, but he managed to escape. He was caugh; the next day. A mob quickly formed, and an attempt was made to lynch him, but the efforts of the police restrained the mob. Both John Lytle and his brother, Ueorgo, were in and about Portland at the time of the Holzman murder. John admitted to the Grand Island officers that he and his brother wore engaged in bricklaying in Oregon City in March, 1911, whon the murder occured, and John admitted that he knew some de tails of the murder. Both have been convicted of criminal attack before, ac cording to information sent by th-3 Grand Island officers. The bost information received by Day and Hyde, next to Mrs.' Nelson's iden tification, is the description of Lytle furnished by the Grand Island author ties and the closeness with which it parallels the description given by Mrs. iNelson of her lodger. ' Mrs. Nolson said that her lodger was 50 years old, six feet tall, with an ema ciated face, and a noutral colored mus tache. The description of Lytle from Grand Island is: "John Albert Lytle, alius John Agard, and other names, aged 51 years; height, 5 feet ll'j nehes; weight, 170 pounds; hair, brown with sandy tint and mixed with gray; eyes, brownish gray; a short stubby, sandy brown mustache, mixed with gray; wears a No. 7 hat and No. 10 shoes; is stoop-shouldered.

Thome of Albania Went Begging For Long Time as no One Wanted to Face Fierce Natives. WOMEN CONSIDERED LITTLE BETTER THAN BEASTS Albanian Girl Does not See Husband Until Day of Wedding and Bride groom Fays Father. BY KARL Von WIEOAND. (Berlin Correspondent of tin United Press.) .Berlin, Jan. 21. From simple Lieu tenant in the Kaiser's Guard at Pots dam to King of Albania, Is the jump that Prince Wilholm of Wied will make late this month. It is the third rulor that Germany will furnish the trouble some Balkans. Germans soon will gov ern the greater part of the Balkan coun try. Slowly but Burely the Kaiser's influence in the form of a chain of German rulers, is extending from Ber lin to Constantinople. At Bucharest is King Earl of Rou- mania. He is a Hohenzollern Prince of a branch of the Kaiser's house. His Queen Carmen Sylva was Princess of Wied. At Sofia is Czar Ferdinand of Bulgaria, a German Prince from the house of Coburg. His wife is Queen Elonore, a Princess of the German prin cipality of Reuss. The Queen of Greece is a sister to the Kaiser. And, now Albania, the new nation born out of tho throes of the Balkan wars, is to be given to Prince Wilholm of Wied. That leaves but two Balkan thrones not oc cupied by Germans, Scrvia and Monte- neirro. At Constantinople one of the Kaiser's generals, General Liman von Sander, at the head of a group of Gor man officers, is reorganizing the Turk ish army. People Not Consulted. The Albanian people had nothing to Bay about being made into a nation and still less as to who shall be their rulor. The "Powers," whom the Greek Pre mier during the war sarcastically re ferred to as "real respectable old ladies," "made" Albania into a nation and selocted the man who shall Bit on the newly created throne. At the start his titlo will merely be the Prince of Albania but there is nothing to hinder him from promoting himself to King in namo, which he will be in fact. Ni- kitn of Montenegro changed his name from Princo to King one day and has been King ever since. Karl ol Hohen zollern went to Bucharest as Prince of Romania and did such a good job in governing the country that the Rou manians had no objection to his promo tion as King. No one envies Prince Wilholm Mb new job. The throne went begging for a long timo. No one seemed to have the nerve to tackle the task of govern ing the fierce Albanians. After con sulting the Kaiser, Franz Joseph of Austria, King Karl and Carmen Sylva at Bucharest and Ferdinand at Sofia and receiving assurances that they 'would send a rescue expedition if he "got in bad" with the Albanians Prince Wilhelm decided ho would take the chance on being King. Albania 1b the most backward, uncivilized country in Europe; its people tho fiercest. It is the home of "blood fouds, " tho Paradise of Tuberculosis and tho Holl of women.

This, together with the habitu al excesses in the use of alcohol, cof fee and nicotine cnuses tho whito plague to rugo among the people. Sixty per cent of tho denths aro said to bo from tuberculosis. Women Brutally Treated. Prnico Wilhelm will govern a country where women are considered little more than beasts of bunion. They aro treat ed like slaves. The life of an AlbanLan girl is inexpressibly sad. Until she Is married she rarely sees even her near est relatives, Sho merely works, Asldo twm the houso and field duties, her principal occupation is embroidering on silk ami cotton, During those years she not only makes her trousseau, but also the clothes fur the expected children and her "death rolio. " All theso, as established by century old customs sho must have. Her fato is decided by her father and by him only. Ho picks out her husband whom she does not see until the day of the wedding. Instead of a dowry being given with tho bride, the bridegroom "compensates" the father for the loss of so valuable a worker in his houso. dually tho bride groom pays from $10 to $40 for his bride. When the father notifies bis daughter that he has selected a buslnd for her, custom demands that she must "take on" as if she were about to go to her death. No matter how happy she may 'cl at tho thought of leaving tho pris on like home, sho must rry, weep, moan and give all possible expression of lit tor despair, when the bridal eoa"h In the form of a lumbering old wagon drawn by oxen, creaks before the bride's door.

After the wedding the bride is taken to the bridegroom's homo. The latter "refuses" to go homo. Simulating the greatest objec tion and struggling fiercely, he is drag ged and carried to his bride by his rel atives. When the young wife is about to be come a mother, her relatives place her death robe in her room where she may see it. When the death of the last mem ber of the family occurs, the hearth and fire place in the principal room in the house is destroyed and a thorn bush placed there; ono window closed with masonry, the fruit trees in the garden cut down and all tho flowers around tho house torn out by roots. Prince Wilholm will have his hands full to civilize the Albanians. 4. DEATH NOTICES. HANCOCK. At the home of her daughter, Mrs. John Yodcr, near Salem, January 24, 1914, Mrs. E. H.
