SOMETHING LIKE ‘GRADUAL BURIAL OF A CHURCH AND SHANTIES UNDER PILES OF GARBAGE. DWELLERS APPEAL TO COURTS. — Their Houses Can Hardly Be Seen From the Road and So They Aré Suing the Landlord for Damages. A fate not unlike that which overtook his- toric Pompeii threatens a portion 6f Little Oklahome. The homes ci 35 persons and the Mount Pleasant Baptist Church are being grad- ually buried. Thus far the citizens have stood by their firesides and scorned the in- vitation to fly, though the destroying ele- ment is piling high at their doors. It is not lava that threatens the exter- mination of this famed settlement. It is garbage. All day wagons loaded with the city’s offal draw up close to the squatters’ huts and dump the filth against the sides of the miserable huts. This has been going on for weeks, until now the dirt is piled higher than some of the dwellings, and the church itself is ina fair way to be hidden frcen sight. These encroachments upon their rights have created the greatest alarm among the inhabitants. Protests have ‘been in vain, and recourse has been taken to law. Justin E. Joy will be made defendant in the jitigation and his title to the property known as Dock street addition to ‘Little Oklahoma will be vigorously contested by Attorney Henry R. Watson, who has been aged as ‘citizens’ counsel.”’ he fated district lies along the north line of Dock street, between the tracks of Merchants’ Terminal Association and * line, It is below the street level, and the claim is made that it is properly a “river sinkhole’ and the reality of no man. The change in the Mississippi's channel has high and dry, to be the dwell- hose-too poor to rent a home, Sooeven umbie, in the city proper. » Although a block removed from the palace of Kin uls Seibt, the residents say they are his subjects, The Dock street settlement is really a principality, with Rev. Oom Paul Kates defacto ruler, For years he has ministered to the spirit- ual wants of the settlers, and the Mount Pieasant Baptist Church, with its member- ship of 23, is the monument to his energy. To be sure the church edifice is dilapidated, patched and propped, but it is easily the most imposing structure on the lot. Oom Paul is a conscientious old man, w ho does not believe his whole duty to humanity ends with the Sabbath day. During the week he is the wise counselor df the inhabitants, and the go-between in business disputes. All look to him as the real king. The houses of the settlement are either the last stages of dilapidation. Many of the Jlatter, by reason of numerous patches end have outgrown and semodlanc boats, but the old name clings to them. and while there is scarcely an excuse for the name, the residents prefer to be known @s boat dwellers. Into this lot some came 12 years ago and have lived there continu any. eking out a miserable existence by raking over the neighboring garbage piles ‘ne junk. At one time they paid a smoll ren‘al to Mr. Joy, who claims the peeparty. With the advent of dull times, the odd jobs that netted many & nickel to the residents became less plenti- ful, and rent could no longer be afforded. st month Mr. Joy decided he needed the lot for his lumber vard and served notice on the inhabitants to vacate in three days. ey Wanted some financial assistance, but it Was not forthcoming, and at a meeting it was decided to resist the order. They refused to move. The work of Alling the lot up to the street level Was begun at once. In many instances the highway is above the tops of the shan- dirt and garbage has been filled in around the “boats” until each !s in.ite hole. them >" loads of dirt will suffice to bury r.

JOHN CASEY OFFERED HIMSELF ON HIS LITTLE BOY’S BEHALF. KNIFE USED ON HIS ARM. Y The Transplanting Was Successful and Dr. Sutter Believes His Patient Will Recover From Hic Injuries. ae —— | Dr. Otto Sutter, | Superintendent of the City Hospital, performed a delicate opera- tion for skin-grafting Saturday afternoon, transplanting nearly four square inches of cuticle from a father’s arm and back to the cheeks and neck of a child. The child was little Johnnie Casey, aged 4 years, who was burned on the night of Dec. 2 last. The boy was playing about the room of the home, 2308 Olive street, when his dress accidentally caught fire. Before the flames could be extinguished they reached his face, neck and arms, searing the tender skin until it was killed. It was presumed the child would not recover, but by good fortune none of the fire was in- aled. The large extent of the burned surface has persistently refused to heal and Dr. Sutter found it necessary to engraft liye skin on the little fellow’s cheeks. John Casey, the father, who works in East St. Louis, was notified, and at once offered himself in behalf of his son. He came to the hospital Saturday afternoon, where preparations. had all been made for the operation. The child was put under an anesthetic, the father was bared to the waist, and the physician skillfully removed small particles of skin from the one and planted them upon the other. The father bore the pain heroically, and the doctor expressed the*ppinion that the FOUGHT. A MASKED. BURGLAR, Mrs, Miller Woke to Find a Robber in Her Room. Miss Florence Miller, 2109 Market street, was awakened at 4 o’clock Saturday morn- ing by the presenceof a masked burglar in her room. Her husband had gone to East St. Louis to keep a death vigil over the oer of a friend, and she was alone in the ouse. Mrs: Miller at first supposed the intruder to be her husband, but on the instant the fire in the grate figshed up and she saw she had to deal with a burglar. The man directed her to keep quiet, but she sprang from the bed, seized the mask from his face and scratched him until he was really glad fo allow her to escape. She ran. from the room in her night dress and aroused the neighborhood. The burglar escaped. HIS HONOR AVENGED. Col. Picquart Punches a Little Hole in Col. Henry’s Arm. PARIS, March 6.—Col. Picquart, who was disciplined for giving testimony favorable to the case of M. Zola, at the recent trial of the author, fought a duel with swords to-day in the riding school of the Military School with Col. Henry, who, in the course of h.s testimony against M. Zola, denouced Picquart as a liar. Col. Henry was wounded in the wrist and arm. At the slightly the same touch Col, first encounter Col. Henry was scratched on the forearm, and at moment his blade.appeared to Picquart’s neck. Senator Ranc, Col. Picquart’s second, then intervened, but his principal was shown not to have been touched and an encounter at close quarters followed. Col. Henry was eventually wounded on the el- bow and the duel was brought to an end. After Col. Henry's wound had been dressed he went home, where Gen. Boisdeffre was awaiting him. Officers acted as seconds for the two duelists, and Col. Henry's wound was dressed by a civilian. $300,000 INVOLVED. Bettman & Watson, Oil Well Supply Dealers, Assign.

The proposition is to retard to the utmost all measures brought up for consideration, even including appropriation bills, until the Republican leaders permit the Morgan beligerency resolution or some _ similar measure to be discusted until a vote is reached. The Democrats and Populists have reason to believe they will be sugported by a rea- sonably large following pe pene Hoe and the hope is expressed that eventually the discipline maintained by Speaker Reed may be so shattered as to permit his overthrow.

He said: “I don’t believe the United States really want war with Spain. “I never feared complications with the American Government when I was in Cuba. , “My opinion, from a military standpoint, was that we then had sufficient resources to face all emergencies on sea and land—even more than enough. “l-intend to speak’in the Senate, if I am challenged to defend my acts in Cuba. | ; ) ; “I donot like interviews.

NEW YORK, March 5.—A special from Washington says: Fully realizing the importance of prepara- tions for any.emergency the President has directed the Navy Department to open nego- tiations looking to the purchase abroad of warships. Eight men-of-war, which are practically completed in foreign ship yards, have becn offered for sale in the United States. The President has given consideration to the ad; visability of placing an option on them. The Navy Department watching the construction of ships abroad through the eyes of its naval attaches at ndon, Paris, St. Petersburg, Berlin, Vienna and Rome. This surveillance has been maintained for two months, but more a oo! since the Maine disaster. hrough these naval attaches and from -bullders themselves the Secretary favy has learned that he can now purchase two small-sized battleships, two armored cruisers and four torpedo boats, el] at a comparatively low price. The build- ers have promised that they can deliver the vessels to agcnts of this Government at this time complete in every respect, and all that will be necessary for the Administration to do will be to order the necessary details of officers and men to proceed to the ship yard, go om board the vessels and take them to ey points which may be desired. he builders have urged that the pur- chases be made at once as they say thata declaration of war between the United States and Spain would result in the en- forcement of the neutrality laws and pre- vent the sale of the ships. The battleships and armored cruisers have been built by English and German firms for Governments which are now un- able to pay for them; also that this Gov- ernment would have no difficulty in obtain- ing the vessels by simply putting down the necessary amount of cash.

MADRID, March 5.—The floating debt of Spain was augmented by 13,226,681 pesetas during the month of February. AMMUNITION BEING DISTRIBUTED LIBERALLY. SAN FRANCISCO, Cal, March 6.—In- creased supplies of ammunition for high power guns have been ordered by the War Department from the Benicia Arsenal to the forts at the Presidio and Lime Point. To- day twenty tons of powder and a large sup- ply of projectiles will be placed aboard barges at Benicia and towed to the Pres- idio Wharf. The supply of munitions at the arsenal, which will be almost exhausted by this ship- ment, will be replenished by a train load of ammunition from the Hast. Veteran army officers stationed at the Presidio are confident ‘that the works at Fort Point and Fort Baker are now strong enough to successfully resist any fleet that Spain could send to the Pacific. GOMEZ IS NEARING TO THE COAST DAILY. NEW YORK, March 5.—Spanish author- ity in Cuba is strengthened a little against attacks from within by the presence of warships, says a Havana correspondent. They gave Captain General Blanco a means of repressing internal disorder that has heretofore been lacking to the Government. The volunteers and the populace, who have been rejoicing over the coming of the ships because of the supposed effect on the United States, have not thought of it in this light. They may see its bearing later if they at- tempt a hostile demonstration. But while Blanco is measureably reas- sured against attacks from his own people, no progress is made in preventing assaults from without, nor are the insurgents show- ing a willingness to yield amy of the ad- vantages they have gained. While recruits for the Spanish army continue to arrive from Spain, their coming seems to insptre no dread in the insurgents, who are alike indifferent to persuasion and to force. Gomez is in Santa Clara province, nearer communication with the outside world than he has been for months. His answer, which will be a rejection of every ‘proposi- tion that is not based on absolute. inde- pendence, may be received at any time. After that nothing remains for Spain ex- cept the mediation of the United States, or if not mediation, intervention. HAVE KISSED AND MADE UP.

To-day Plumber Bailey fs in the holdovef living down the eftects of a week's hilar- ity. Incidentally, he is bernoaning the loss a $350, which he believes was stolen froi@ iim. Bailey appeared*®at the Four Courts Fri™, day afternoon and reported the robbery. Notwithstanding his loss and the prodigal manner in which he had spent money since his arrival] in St. Louis, Bailey still had a large sum of money, which he recently re- ceived by wire from Pittsburg. As a pre- cautionary measure, the police restrained the béss plumber. There is no charge against him and he will be liberated as soon,as he is in proper condition. The detectives who have investigated the alleged robbery are of the opinion that Bailey spent his money and was not robbed. He jis credited with sincerity in the filing of his fomplaint. It is-said that Bailey came to St. Louis for the purpose of establishing a business here. He is reputed to be worth several hundred thousand dollars. EXPENSIVE CARRIAGE RIDE.

The young men drove over various parts of the city, having a high time en route “ ; “You are bums, dangerous bums, said Judge Peabody at the conclusion of the evidence, “and the wonder is that the horses were not driven to death.” Savage was fined $20 and Mann $15, WILL GET IT IN EUROPE.

NO CASE AGAINST MISCHKE. Commissioner Gray Lets the Man From Ouba, Mo., Go Back Home. The case against Emil Mischke of Cuba, Mo., charged with selling liquor without a license, was dropped Saturday. ‘The hearing: before United States Com- missioner Gray waS begun Friday, and Mischke, though he denied his guilt, might have been held had it not been for the re- ceipt of a letter here. The letter was signed by E. L. Frost, of the Sligo Iron Works at Cub Mo., and set forth that Mr Mischke was infiocent, claim- ing that a man named Hoffman, who in- formed against him, was not telling the truth. Mischke alleges that Hoffmann js angry at him because of a lumber deal a year ago when he had Hoffmann arrested, charged with cutting Government timber. Judge Gray turned Mischke loose, KNIFE WAS TOO LONG. Why Petitioner Wilson Failed to Get a Divorce From His Wife. J. S.

Deputy United States Marshal Fox, who has been working on the case, reported on Saturday the arrest of Charles North, at Curtisvillas Mo., in whose pos- scale were found several “queer” quar- rs. North had been in Curtisville claiming that he was salesman for . Louis dry goods house. He has relatives living in the county, and is well thought of. He spent money freely enough, but not as freely as he would like to have done. It was while he was trying to make a purchase with a bad quarter of a dollar that suspicion fell on him. But the authorities do not believe that North has been the manufacturer of the coin, Secret Service Officer Murphy thinks that North was a “distributer” and that he can tell something about the origin of the “queer” currency. North denied his guilt to the Government Commissioner at Poplar Bluff, Mo. He is being held for the Federal Grand Jury. TO BE NIPPED iN THE BUD. Columbia Students tc Be Expelled for Their Rioting.

Mrs. Stanton writes a peppery and incisive preface to.it, answering her critics and reiterating that ‘‘we have made a fetish of the Bible long enough; the time has come to read it as we do all other books, accepting the good and rejecting the evil which it teaches.”’ The particular kind of evil she hag set about rejecting is the idea that woman is in any way inferior to man.” The RBReter Paul Book Co, announce the publication atan early date of ‘‘Daydreams of a Doctor,’ by Dr. C. Barlow of Robin- gon, Ill. In this book the author has at- tempted to tell in a simple, honest way the story of an intelligent, thoughtful, dutiful, every-day doctor. He believes that as yet the half has not been told of the peculiar life and work of the physician, its responsi- bilities, its cares, its trials, its compensa- tions, the dangers he is often called upon to face and the invaluable services he renders to society; and in these pages he has tried to convey to laymen, in a pleasant and read- ble manner, some true conception of a phy- sician's iife and its influences upon himself and others.

A British Vessel Stranded Off the Cape Hemry Lightship. ~ NORFOLK, Va., March 6.—The British steamship Gleadow, from Delaware Break- er to Norfolk, loaded with a cargo of grain, stranded two miles south of Cape Henry lightship yesterday morning. The steamer lies almost on exactly the same spot where the ill-fated bark Dictator went to pieces two years ago, when all her crew were drowned. The life-saving crew made heroic efforts to get to the Gleadowe, but failed to launch the lifeboat through the heavy surf. It wes then seen that it would be mecessafy to shoot a line to the ship and bring her crew ashore in the breeches buoy. Repeated ef- forts to reach ‘ther failed, but at 2 o’clock the line was got to her and the work of res- cuing Capt. Harrison and his crew of 23 men, one at a time, was begun. It was 4 o’clock when the last man was landed, not a life having be@n lost, eithoush the cap- tain’s son, who wes struck in the head by a pulley, narrowly escaped drowning as he was being hauled ashore through the heavy surf. The wind was blowing about 56 miles an hour when the Gleadowe stranded and the rescue of her crew was effected in the teeth of a 64-mile gale. HAD GROWN VERY BOLD.

Cunning, paying teller of the First Na- 1 tional Bank, wag arrested last night on the charge of embezzlement, preferred by W. 8S. Roe, cashier of the bank. The amount involved is said to be between $23,400 and $25,000. The alleged shortage in Cunning’s accounts was noticed for the first time yes- terday afternoon.

March 6.-—The whole Atlantio coast has again been visited by a storm of such violence as to cause grave apprehension for vessels that happen to be close to the shore. A terrific north- easter prevails at the Delaware breakwater, and is casting in before its influence a sea which, at last reports, was leaping high over the Delaware breakwater and Mara- time Exchange observatory at that point. The harbor ig full of storm bound craft, smothering themselves in the head and held in position — with their two anchors down and.a full scope of chain. This storm, according to the Weather Bu- reau, is central off the coast of North Caro- lina, moving northeast, and will cause dan- gerous gales on the New Jersey and South- ern New England coast. A dispatch from the district marat.me exchange at Lewes, Del, says that an un- known two-masted schooner is ashore near Agsateague life-saving station Inside fish- ing point, Despite the violence of the storm and condition of the sea, the life-saving crew had long before dark launched their boat and were making desperate eGorts to reach the distressed craft. A fleet of no less than ® coal barges carrying possibly upwards of 30,000 tons o coal, some in charge of tugs and others in tow of steamers, passed to eea on Thurs- day night and will experience the full force of the storm.

MAKE HER SON PRESIDENT. PROPOSITION TO ABSORB TEXAS MIDLAND AND HOUSTON & TEXAS CENTRAL. DIRECT ROAD TO GALVESTON. The Main Line Would Have Que Thou- sand Miles of Track and the Branches as Many More— Officials Reticent. Tf Mrs. Hetty Green's present plans go not awry the St. Louls & San Francisco Raflroad will become one of the greatest railway systems in this country. It is understood the Frisco is perfecting arrangements to absorb the Texas Midland and thé Houston & Texas Central, giving it a straightaway line of 1000 miles from St. Louis to Galveston, with western side lines amounting to another thousand miié¢s. The roads phich are proposed to be ab- sorbed are owned by Mrs. Green. Her son, Kk. H. R. Green, is President of the Texas Midiand. She is a large stockholder in the Frisco, and her ambition is to consolidate the three lines and make her son President of the entire system. Involved in the deal is a battle for the control of the Southwest. The Frisco re- cently purchased the Blair line, and within two months will have its trains running into Kansas City, thus meeting the competition of the (Missouri Pacific in that diréction. Inside of five months its extension from Oklahoma City to Sapulpa will be finished, giving to St. uls a line of trade in a new irection and opening a vast field of com- mercial territory. These activities are preliminary to the coming consolidation of the Texas roadé named, The Frisco now runs to Paris, 684 miles. The Texas Midland would extend the terminus 13 miles to Ennig, and the lHiouston & Texas Central would put it at Galveston, 280 miles farther south. At the lowest calculation the Frisco sys- tem would then have 2000 miles of road, run- ning straight southwest from St. Louis and Kansas City to the South and now in old Mexico. Rumor has it he may become president of the reorganized Balti- more & Bnio, of which road he was once of- the receivership. F.. Yoakum, Vice-President and General Manager, declined to discuss the rumors of the consolidation Saturday, referring all in- quiries to Mr. Robinson, According to the railroad gossips he is to be retained in his eeoens position when the system shall have ecome an accomplished fact. Attorney Parker refused to be seen Sat- urday, urging a press of business with Vice-President Yoakum. In the absence of official affirmance or denial, credence is generally given to the rumored consolidation by reason of its at- tendant circumstances and known facts. It is within the power of Mrs. Green to effect this magnificent coup, and its accom- plishment would not only bé a source of reat revenue to the city of St. Louis and rs. Green, but would rank President Green with George Gould as a railway king. The Missouri Pacific system has long en- joyed something of a monopoly of South- western business. The recent extensions of the Missouri, Kansas & Texas, whereby St. Loule was made the Eastern terminus paved the way for additional energy and activity in that direction. The Atchison, Topeka & Santa Fe also invaded the West- ern field by an absorption of other lines, and with the Frisco increasing and extend- ing its facilities the position of St. Louis as the wateway to the Southveest is made invincible. | COAL IN INDIAN TERRITORY. o———— Commissioner Holman Tells of Rich Deposits He Saw. Water Commissioner M. LL. Holman re- turned Friday from a week's visit to the Indian Territory. It was supposed to be a trip of recreation. It was that, but it also had important significance for the city. Mr. Holman put in the time examining into the ooal resources of the territory. The result will be that St. Louis will never go dry on @coount of mck of coal to keep the water- works running. During the last great strike of coul miners the supply of coal for the water- works Was received from Kentucky. If the offorta# to craw that State into the strike had succeeded St. Louls would have been without water. The purpose of Mr. Hol- emergency in the future. man's trip Was to provide against such er “It is net weneralily known,’ said he, “‘but there ia an eXtensive deposit of coal in the territory and in i Oy it averages as good as Illinois coal. it is Reing taken out in considerab.e quantities ndw by the M.., K T.

All that is necessary is to take a few scrapers and scrape 1e@ «dirt off. Farmers or etuone- masons Can dig the coal out as well as coal miners.

WILL FIRST MEET RUHLIN. Something About the Kid’s Battle With Burley and His Hot Foot Away From Arkansas. Kid McCoy, who aspires to the title, “Champion Pugilist of the World;” Homer Selby, his brother; Dock Payne anda party of St. Loulsans, who went to see the fight at Hot Springs between McCoy and Nic Burley, reached St. Louls this morning. McCoy has not a mark about him to show that he was in the ring yesterday. As his brother put it, “The Kid never turned a hair. Burley was dig and strong and started the ball rolling, but two hard smashes from the Kid's right and left took all the battle out of him.” ‘Tell the readers of the Post-Diepatch, said (McCoy, “that they are right. must stand ready to fight all comers and to meet any man in the world before I can claim the championship. And tel your readers that is just what I am going to do. “Now, mark you, I have $000 up, which says I stand ready to meet any man In the world. Three men have accepted my defi—Maher, Choynski and Ruhiin, I think you will admit I cannet take on all three at one and the same time. I think you will admit, too, that I have a right to meet them in the order that best suits me. “I have therefore seen fit to select Ruhlin as the first man, and my brother will meet Billy Madden at Cincinnati on next Wednes- day, March 9 and then and there post in cash to fight him, The fight with Ruhlin will take place from six to twelve weeks from the time of signing articles, and before the club offering the best purse for it. But now make a note of this fact. “While my brother is at Cincinnati he will be ready to also make matches with Maher and Choynski. ‘That is, he will be ready to post $5000 for a fight) with each of them, but those matches will of course follow my meeting with Ruhlin. I think the sporting public will admit that as these men are all claim- ing the heavyweight championship of the world and as they have all signified a wish to meet me, I have the right to gay which one of the lot I prefér meeting. And 6s£o, thinking I have. decided to give Ruhlin the first chance. He ig as well thought of on the coast as any of the heavyweights, hav- ing had a wonderful fight there with Big Jeffries And I believe a match with him will draw better than a match with either Maher or Choynski.’’ “There is no truth then in this report scattered broadcast that you are already matched to fight Choynski?’’ “None on earth. I haven't made a match with a soul so far. But on Wednesday next I may make two or three of them. The match with Ruhlin is just now as good ag made. We have each placed a forfeit of $250 in the hands of the sporting editor of the Cincinnati Enquirer, guaranteeing the presence of the representative of eaci¢ at Cincinnat! on Wednesday next to make the match. It will in all probability be made for $10,000 a side, the winner to take 75 per cent of whatever purse is offered."’ McCoy had a lively time getting away from Hot Springs after his fight with Bur- levy yesterday. Gov. Jones of ‘Arkansas thad positively prohibited the fight from taking place, but the parties having it in charge pulled it off all the same just outside the city limits at Hot oringe. When Gov. Jones heard the fight had been brought off contrary to his instructions he was furious, and the tel- egraphed to the Hot Springs authorities to arrest all parties. He also telegraphed the Sheriff of Hot Springs to close up eyery gambling house in the town. This order was carried out to the letter and last night there was not a gambling house running at Hot Springs. McCoy, fearing the Arkansas autharities would follow him up, put on a negro's gray wig, covered his face with burnt cork and disguised as an old negro and earrying a bundle in a bandana handkerchief, he got out of the town. He was getting the last of the burnt cork off his face as the Iron Mountain train pulled into the Union Depot this morning. McCoy has promised the managers of the boxing tournament at McCasland’s “pers House, East St. Louis, to-night to be there and to referee the bouts for them, ¢ He is now in fighting trim, weighing in the neighborhood of 160 pounds, and he says he a A a at about that weight when he faces uhlin. oS a JOHN L.

A Youngster Who May Be Sent After Earl Peabody’s Record. Ohio has an amateur who may be sent after Earl Peabody's record of 112 firsts in a season's cycling racing. His name is Frank Dreher and he is one of the best- known amateurs in the State. He has al- ready begun active training for the coming year, Last séason was the first year on the track and he made a record that would do proud to any rider. He won 20 firsts, 10 sec- onds and three thirds, among them a world’s record made at Fostoria in a three- quarter-mile handicap event érom scratch in im. 3ls.. His freatest day’s work was when he captured six events in one after- noon, and that day he showed that he was made of the proper stuff to make one of the best riders in the country with the proper training. He was turned over to the pro- fessional class the latter end of the racing season last year, on account of a misunder- standing of the exchanging of prizes. At the annual meeting of the L. A.W. in St. Louis two weeks ago he was reinstated by the Racing Board after the circumstances had beer? explained to them. He is known as a simon pure, as his father pays all his ex- penses. TO COPY MICHAEL. That Is What They Say ‘Tayloure, the Frenchman, Is Doing. Edouard Tayloure, the famous racing man, will copy after Michael in his racing wheel, Close observers have noticed that the front wheel of Michael’s racer is smaller than the rear wheel. There is no material fom in speed in having a wheel constructed n this way, but the ease in following pace ie reduced to‘a minimum. Ajman on sucha wheel can ride right under the pacemakers’ rear wheel and receiye very little wind re- sistance, while on an ordinary wheel the rider is much farther back and receives in consequence much more resistance. Michacl has had this advantage throughout the past season over his competitors. The coming season will likely see others with the same constructed wheels and the fight will be more equal, Junior Football League. schedule for the Junior Football League for Sunday is as follows: Griffin vs. Thietles at old Sportsman's Park at 1l a. m.; Daly, referee.

The Indianapolis basket ball team de- feated the St. Louls champions in the first game of the series of games that has been arranged. It was the most exciting game ever played in Indianapolis, and the St. Louls ‘boys played a fine game, but were badly handi@pped by not having one of their beat guards with them, and by the In- dianapolis gymnasium being so small and so poorly lighted. The St. Louis boys played the most scientific game and showed the Hoosier boys some new tricks of the gamé¢, The In- diana boys have a strong team and are used to playing a rough game, which was another handicap to the St. Louis lads, as the boys here play a more scientific game and don’t rely on weight and strength to win.

President Ban Johnson of the Western League yesterday said that organization would not adopt that resolution. Referring to it, Mr. Johnson saki: “The Western League already has a law governing such cases and the power to suspend is vested in me. I think thet the rule is an excellent one, but 1 am afraid the agitation of the rowdy ball subject, which is meant for a few rowdies, will tend to make the outside public think that all ball players are row- dies and maybe hurt the game. The cases of rowdyism are comparatively few and are caused by afew men; The others may suf- fer through the reputation made by the real offenders. It lies within the power of any manager to prevent such scenes as are complained of in the Brush resolution, and ~ — amagere do not the managers should re amed.”’ —_——_—_ a JIMMY MICHAEL IN ST. LOUIS. He Comes Direct From the Gravesend Race Track. Jimmy Michael, the “Welsh Rarebit,” ar- rived here from the East yesterday. He comes to St. Louls direct from the Dwyer stable, at Gravesend Race Track,New York, where he has been recently learning to be a jockey. He was riding race horses there as late as Tueeday of this week. Michael is fat as a pig, is 20 pounds over weight and ‘s not lkely to do any record breaking, but he will go on the track in the Coliseum to-night just the same, if only to get the money he needs in his business. Talking about the work of Jimmy Michael on the race track a dispatch from New York says: “Frank McCabe, who has un- dertaken the task of making a jockey out of Michael, the speedy young bicycle rider, says that he believes he will be successful. Michael has been at McCabe's stable at Gravesend race track for a week past. He turns out before sunrise to do his regular work with the stable and exercise boys. He eats the simplest food and has reduced without apparent effort from 100 to 97 pounds. McCabe says that Michael is wiil- ing to do any kind of work he is called on to do, and that he.goes about it intelligently and cheerfully. Up to to-day Michael had to content himself with merely trotting and cantering such horses as McCabe gave him to exercise. This morning, however, McCabe let him gallop the 2-year-old colt Marblehead, His work was narrowly watched by McCabe, ‘Hardy Campbell, M. F. Dwyer and Charife Dwyer, all of whom agreed that there was In him the making of a good jockey.” Lou Whistler’s New Job. Lou Whistler. the well-known 8t.

LOUIS A BRIEF VISIT. WILL TRAIN AT HOT SPRINGS. President De Hass Robison Says Sock- alexis Will Play Real Ball This Season. Pat Tebeau’s Cleveland team will pass through St. Louis to-day en route for Hot Springs. Pat will have all his men with him with the exception of a couple who have been sojousning at the eprings for some time, F. De Hags Robison, president of the Cleveland Club, and his brother have been in St. Louis eince the League meeting and they mill go on to Hot Springs with the Spiders. Mr. Robison says: “This year we have all our men in line. Sockalexis, our great Indian player, is with us and he has mignes a conditional contract that I think ' ill keep him straight. In condition he ts the best flelder in America. How do I like the ‘Rowdy Ball’ resolution? I was opposed to it, but it may pan out all right.”’ Every one of the big baseball] men have 4 handle to their names with the single ex- ception of Muckenfuss, the Browns’ new president. A friend of Muckenfuss says: “I am surprised you have not nicknamed Muck- enfuss long before this. You are evidently not a linguist. Muckenfuss, translated into English is Flyfoot or the foot of a horse- fiy. The right way to spell it is Muckenfuss. In some parts of Southern Germany it is pronounced with the single vowel ‘“‘u,”’ whereas the correct spelling is with the double. vowel ‘“‘u’’ or ‘‘ue.”’ It is also called fllegenfuss. Call him Fliegenfuss for a start- er. It is a good name for him and the boys will enjoy it or call him Flyfoot, which per- haps is better. Bill Conant ‘of said: the Bostons, while here last week, “We have ten pitghers. If we get one good one out of the raw recruits I will be satisfied, and believe we can retain that flag. I think there are pice clubs that have fighting chances for the championship—Boston, ew York, Balti-« more, Cincinnati, Chicago and Cleveland.” Two men in fast company and one mar in a minor league are the only players in harness of the 20 League stars that made the around-the-+world tour nine years ago last autumn. | ‘ The 2 players who started West from cutenge one day in October, 1888, and went back from the East in April, 1889, after cir- cling Re gcene. were as follows: Tom Daly, John Tener, Mark Baldwirs nson, Fred Pfeffer, Ed William- son, Mart Sullivan, Jimmie R tit, Billy Earle dad Cr Healy, Billy arroll, Manning, George Wood, Jimmie Fogarty, Ned Harg lon, John Ward and Tom Brown. Of the above named Jimmie Ryan of the Chicagos, Tom Brown of the Washingtons and Tom gs 4 of the Milwaukees are the ony, oa ers in harness. Ed ar es aldwin is a doctor, Long John Healy is a policeman, Johnnie Ward is a lawyer, Fred Pfeffer is in busi- ness in Chicago, and Anson has retired. Hanlon is manager of the Baltimores, Man- ning of the Kansas Citys and Tom Brown of the Washingtons. Two of the party, George Wood, the well- known ex-League outfielder, and ' Billy Parle, the catcher, are in Cincinnati with- out engagements for next season. Wood has bright prospects of being a National League umpire. Earle had nothing in view. Gus Weyhing, at one time e of the star ‘wirlers of the American Association, and later with major league will reappear in League company this year. Weyhing signed a contract last week to twirl for Earle Wag- ner’s senatorial outfit, and it is believed he will regain his old-time position among the twirlers of the National League, notwith- standing the fact that many fans consider him as passed, The Washington manaxe- ment wanted another twirler badly, and, failing to secure “‘Kid"’ Carsey from the St. Louis Club, Wagner decided to give Weyhing a chance on the recommendation of Patse Tebeau of the Cleveland team. Weyhing eS fine showing with Louisville in 1895 Tom Burns, the new manager of the Chi- cago club, while in St. Louis had this to say of the way he intended to train his players: I shall require every man on the team to appear for practice eve morning at 10 o'clock, In the first place I shall require that they live at some place where they can have access to a telephone and in case any good reason ever should occur to pre. vent their coming to ppactice they will have to call me up and let me know about it. As regards the men's habits, I do not at- tempt to enforce teetotalism. I don’t ob- ject to the players taking a glass of beer naw and then and want to encourage them to the idea that they do not ne to be afraid to do so when I am around.. I don’t want them to try to fool me. But while I shall not insist that they be teetotalers, I shall insist that they keep good hours. They will have to retire at a reasonable hour every night and be in pene condition the next day. Not only will they have to re- port for practice in the morning, but the wil] have to report in good condition. f they come around with red eyes or looking as if they had been intemperate they ghal! have to suffer for it. I am going to let the men know twhat the rules are and then if any of them does not want to live up to se ne we have to go, no difference who he is. Big Wrestling Match.

Hancock was a negro porter who worked around the saloons and questionable resorts on Chestnut street, near the Union 5Bta- tion. A woman, Rosie Clark, who claimed to be the wife of Horton, employed the negro to watch Horton and find where he lived and if,he were not living with another ‘woman. Hancock entered Horton's place of bus!- ness on the morning of the murder. He had a note for Horton from the Clark woman. Horton ordered Hancock out of the house and told him to Keep away. A few hours later the negro again entered the place. Again was he driven out. The third time he entered he was pre- pared to stay. Horton arose to order the negro out. Before he had taken a step Hancock drew a revolver and fired.’ Horton fell and the negro fired twice*more. Hor- ton was taken te the City Hospital, where he died a few days later. The State, through Circuit Attorney Ez- gers, proved one of the strongest cases of deliberate murder ever perpetrated. ‘Han- cock listened to the evidence without being affected by it. One day he read the Bible constantly. Hofer and Jones, colored attorneys, de- fended Hancock. They had no evidence and put the defendant on the stand in the mere of making a seif-defense case. While the negro made a fair witness in his own behalf, the evidence was so overwhelming that their attempt was useless. After the ju was polled, Hancock was led back to jail. H is step was firm and he laughed and joked with the deputy sher- iffs who had him in charge. The condemned man was seen in his cell He ia a medium-sized negro, black, with large, thick lips and big, shifty eyes. He greeted the reporter with a laugh, and said: “Well, they done give it to me pretty strong. I didn’t think they would give it to me so hard. Of course I ain't satisfled with it, but how am I going to help myself? I tunderstand what the verdict means. It means a hangin’. But I guess I can stand it if I have to. There has been inno- cent men hung before me. I did kill that man, but he would have killed meif I hadn't fixed him. “I guess I am prepared to die. I belong to the Baptist Church, and have always been a good Christian. I guess my church friends will stay by me,” Hancock laughed severa] times while he was talking, yet his big eyes told that he realized his terrible position. WHISKY OR KNOCK-OUT DROPS.

Joe Botz of 2330 North Ninth street; Noak Johnson, colored, of 2206 Sidney atreet: William Morman, colored, of 1235 McNair avenue; Sa] Williams, colored, of 2206 Sid- ney street; Herman Schmidt of 2087 Mis- sour! avenue; Frank Krill of 2340 Gravois avenue, and Martin Stark of 2235 Gravois avenue, charged with disturbing the peace, were discharged in Judge Zimmerman’s court Saturday morning. Krill stopped Johnson, Morman, WilMams and Schmidt, at Gravois and McNair ave- nues, and asked for a cigarette. Williams said they had no cigarette and then, it is alleged, Botz asked Williams to buy a can of beer. Williams had only a nickel and re- fused. A free-for-all fight ensued and Botz came out with a fractured skull. All were that ti on the following day. All denied that they saw the wound inflicted on Botz’s head, and as Botz did not ow at whose hands he received it, all were dis. charged. FILED A LIGHTING BILL. Council Not Satisfied With What It Asked For. .The City Council Friday night filled the only remaning bil} before it providing for the lighting of the city after 1900. It pro- vides for a five-year electric contract. The motion to file was madé by Mr. Car- roll. He objected, mainly because it conh- teined no provision for Lghting the pub buildings, but also indicated other pojnts, in which he considered it defective. Mr. Horton supported Mr. Carroll, on ac- count of the short term. A motion to refer it back to the Commit- tee on Public Improvements was lost and the motion to file was adopted, Mesers. ‘Heckel and Uthoff voting against such ac- tion. There is now no lighting bill before the Council, but there are three before the House of Delegates. The Board of Publid Improvements will do nothing untill the House has acted. The action of the Council in filing the bills is considered strange, since the board sent fin just what was asked for. WARD REVISION BILL. Faint Prospect Now of It Passing the Assembly. It is now improbable that the ward revis- ion bill will become a law. The House of Delegates Friday night rejected the antend- ments made to the bill by the Council and showed by its temper that it would not be likely to change its position. A motion was made to appoint a joint conference committee, but It was found that the Council had already adjourned and the matter went over to thé next meeting. The Council is bent upon having the amendments concurred in and the almost certain resuit will be that the bill will die. NORTH AND SOUTH BILL DEAD. Its Friends Unable to Rally Enough Votes to Pass the Measure. If there was any doubt before about the sroden and South bill being dead, it has now been removed.

The answer is easy. Love- =D. making is only a part of the matrimonial scheme. The married life that follows is the true penance. That is what Cupid and Lent have to do with each other. The forty days’ period of fasting is a bad time for the butcher, but a worse time for the fish. A good Lenten symbol would be a Harlem butcher and 5s a Massachusetts cod- fish weeping in each others’ arms. The man who profits is the fishmon- ger. When Lent is’ sighted in the offing he clothes his face with joy and doubles his business re- lations with the _ lobster catcher. Fishermen on our coasts are observed to be very a, & however, is its great feature. In Lenten iove- yf making, doubt is always the great feature. Also, - it & possible, doubt is not always confined to ; Lent in this particular pastime. The largest element of the game is and ever will be Doubt—with a large LD, and sometimes S) with a dash; so: D——! But to resume. Several sea- sons ago it was decided by several foreign dressmakers that sack-cloth was really not a fashionable fabric. So they decided against its use. Being de- nied this, it was necessary to substitute something else as symbolic of re- ligious quietude.

SRA ARARAARAMR A gentleman who was suffering severely from business worries and over- anxiety generally was attended by a well-known physician whose chief pre- scription after every visit was a most solemn exhortation to take things easy and not worry about anything. Ultimately the physician’s bill came in and proved to be of even more than generous proportions. Straightway down sat the patient and wrote precisely as follows: “Dear Dr. B— Your account of the Ist inst, duly to hand, and I feel sure that you will be delighted to learn that I am taking things easy and not worrying about anything.
