WASHINGTON, D. C., May 28.---Commodore Schley sent a cable message to Secretary Long which reached here this “4 evening, coming by way of Kingston, Jamaica, where it was carried by the Harvard. Schley informed the Secretary that “| he is confident that the Spanish fleet is inside the harbor at Santiago. He is outside, guarding the entrance with twelve) 4 | _ warships, so that there is no chance for the enemy to escape. a While Commodore Schley lacks the evidence of an eyewitness to the effect that the fleet is within the harbor, he has =| - sufficient circumstantial evidence to satisfy him of its presence in the harbor. Admiral Cervera was seen by one of the a scouting ships, headed for Santiago. This ship Kept close watch in the vicinity of Santiago until Schley arrived off the harbor. They reported that the enemy’s fleet had not been seen leaving, and it is an absolute fact that Cervera has not left since Schley went on guard there. While the evidence now before the Navy Department is not conclusive, yet it is of such an assuring nature that the of- ficials see no reason to doubt that they have Spain’s flying squadron imprisoned in the Cuban port. Capt. Goodrich, Commander of the St. Louis, which reported at New York this morning, was at the Navy Department this evening. He feels positive that the Spanish fleet is inside the harbor from what he learned before leaving Cuban waters. OFFICERS OF THE FLEET EXPECT .A BATTER ae DAY. Special Cable to the Post-Dispatch. (Copyright by the Press Publishing Co., 1898.) KEY WEST, Saturday night, May 28.--Admiral Cervera is imprisoned at Santiago de Cuba. This fact was confirmed late this afternoon by an auxiliary gunboat which arrived direct from Cienfuegos, South coast of Cuba, with dispatches for - Washington. The gunboat left Commander Schley’s squadron on Thursday. ‘The squadron had lost four previous days by watching the mouth of Cienfuegos harbor in the belief that the Spanish fleet was there and in hourly expectation that it would give battle. Commodore Schley has with him the battleships Massachusetts, Indiana and Texas, besides the flagship Brooklyn and several smaller vessels. ' While this formidable fleet waited outside the harbor the men actually slept-and ate at their guns. The entire squad- ron could have gone into battle any moment of the day or night. The warships paraded by day past the narrows at the — entrance to the bay and at night turned their search lights on the mouth. Spaniards made no sign. The British steamer 4 Adula, then in port, was not permitted to sail. : a The Scorpion left the fleet and dashed east to Santiago. Five American warships were parading before that ieee | ] but they were not strong enough to attack the forts and mines. As soon as Commander Schley learned that he was © watching an empty harbor, he proceeded to Santiago. There should be action to-morrow--Sunday morning—exactly four weeks to a day since Dewey meta similar emergency in Manila. {3 3 Commodore Sampson’s fleet is believed to be off the north coast of Cuba, midway between Havana and —— Rico a & pase = ey ’ ae $, %. 5 eeeeS “4 oo aa nn : a ig 3 SOS Hr al ky Se . - sz. ass . ’ Be , ‘ites A ta goat — Seed 2 om, sj Fy... $ 5 : \ . ap te Ete St Be ERE ER Rae ere ‘ ee lad , A mh ocean é os . . = twee Ros a E. + < <4 yee 2 aoe oe se Me iin ys ‘ea : . aS ee 4g a | z, = 0 OE nea TO . = Bia By Mr, JOSEPH FRANKLIN, Hon.

Headquarters of the Army, Washington, May 23, 1898.—The Honorable, the Secretary of War: Sir—I recomn Rowan, of the regiments of “Immunes.” was with the insurgent army under brought most important and valuable information to the Government. and, was a most perilous undertaking, formed an act of heroism and cool dari annals of warfare.

WASHINGTON, May 28.—It almost took @ne’s Dreath away to listen to the coolnéss @nd modesty with which Lieut. Rowan told fh the presence of Gen. Miles the story of his recent trip to Gen, Garcia’s camp in Guba. It was a verbal report on possibly the most important military mission of the War with Spain. The fidelity with which Lieut. Rowan performed his work won for him a superb letter of @mmendation from Gen. Miles asking PrMdent McKinley to @ppoint Rowan to a lieutenant-coionelcy, The promotion has been ordered. The Post-Dispatch correspondent has in- terviewed public men from the President Gown, but mever had such a difficult task @s “drawing out” Lieut. Rowan when he Was reporting to his chief, who, knowing That no secrets would be divulged by Row- Gn, had invited the correspondent to listen €o0 Rowan’s story of adventure The story as here given is full and ex- @lusive and has never been told before ex- Pept to President McKinley and Gen, Miles. Much of the information here given will Be used by the Government as a basis for future operations in Cuba. A reporter of the Post-Dispatch had just @ntered his office Miles was leav- ing. “I want to introduce you to a reai hero,” Baid the General, as he pointed to Rowan Who was then almost to the door. »"Den’t co Rowan, this man would 4) hear something of your trip.” Then Lieut: Rowan told the story that follows. “T left New York April 9, on a ‘steamer for Jamaica. At Kingston I was met by several Cuban guides who were to conduct Me to Gen, Carcia “We left Kingston April 2 (two days after the War began), at 3 O'clock in. the e@fternoon, and journeyed overiand through the isiand 7° miles due north until we feached a smal) bay on the northern coast, This took us till 1 o'clock at night by Using relays of horses. All I carried with me was a bundie of clothes, a pistol and @bout W cartridges. “When we reached this bay--I cannot tell you the name, as we may use the route again, and I don't want to be enmeshed by any British neutrality regulations— found a t walting, together with sup- of @rmse and ammunition, food and = It was an onimary cat boat, With at ageet and balls. y bast at 1:90 at as Cen like 1%th United States Infantry, be made a Lieutenant-Colonel of one Lieut. 1end that First Lieutenant Andrew S. Rowan made a journey across Cuba, the Lieutenant-General, Garcia, and This in my judgment, Lieut. Rowan per- ng that has rarely been excelled in the NELSON A. MILES, | We traveled at night for obvious reasons, as we did not want to fall into the hands of the enemy along the coast. All day we were on the high sea. We were in con- Stant danger of being captured by some Spanish vesels along Santiago de Cuba, and a search of our person would have resulted in our being summarily shot. Hence we were very cautious and guarded in our movements. “The Spaniards have a system of patrol ,along the coast. They have little launches which seem to move about everywhere and descend upon you in a flash. This was the most perilous portion of the whole trip, ‘. a ry es we were to take. 10 GENERAL GARCIA His Story of the Trip Told for the First Time eq, and about 250 miles actording | to Of bourse we were always in danger of ericountering the ehemy, and had to keep our eyes wide open. The Cubans wete dressed. in cotton edats and trousers and wore straw hats. They seemed very poor. “The land looked.to me enormously rich. There was @ thick végetAble mold évery- where, It would make a splendéd invest- ment if properly cultivated. The'trees were so thick that I could ecarcely see 15 feet into the forest on either side. The tropical ual din. I was not afral@. It®eemed a de- lightful trip into a lost paradise. I had no more thought of trouble than if I had been walking down Broadway. “We depended a great deal for food on the Irish article in ‘Ould Eriay “Our road was nothing gore than a path two or three feet wide, and we had a good deal of trouble getting through with our horses, We crossed a good many gtreams, and in.going down to the beds of these streams our horses would have to sit down and then slide, At night we would bring up near a stream and pitch our camp. We would string up our hammocks and then lie down to rest. “Of course the country contained squads of Spaniards, and we had to be very care- ful that roving bands did not capture us. As a@ general thing, however, the Cubans possessed the country and the Spaniards the towns. “The Cuban soldiers have a peculiar mode of living, and have great endurance. They show prompt obedience to officers, and at the same time there ts the closest fa- miliarity® between’ officers and men. The uniform is very primitive and is of linen. The officers rank is designated by a com-, bination of stars, some tnm’a horizontal! po- sition and others in a vertical position. “T think the insurgents are fine soidiers, They can make great and long marches and can readily adapt themselves to unex- pected positions where they can do great good. They appear to be very intelligent and trustworthy. “They lead a communistic sort of life. For example, if a man’s horse plays out on the road he has ful) authority~to take the next horse he finds, and turns his own horse loose for the next fellow coming along. No receipts are taken and there is no accounting. It is ‘everything—for the cause.’ All property is in common. |] was very much impressed with their intelligence, their patriotism and their hospitality, They are entirely different from Spaniards. “If they could be armed and put through elementary training, anything like our tropps, they would make the best soldiers in ihe world. I say this unreservedly and es- pecially of their endurance, knowledge of the country and their obedience. “They have very desirable qualities, Store. about paid them cost of cartage. never see azain.

His subject was, “Commerce and the Law.’ In substance Mr. Coste said: “Refore applying myself to my theme, J wish to thank you for your kind invita- tion. I can think of no body of men pleas- anter for a luwyer to meet than the mem- bers of your association. ‘“T would prefer to make my theme the business man and the lawyer, because I wish to speak of Individuals, the typical business man and the typical lawyer— what they should be. The true function of the law is to aid those who are directly engaged in the business of the world, meaning by that those who create, trans- ,0rt or supply. It is our business in the nw to give these functions, and to aid them. The lawyer is a helper to the business man. If we forget this we lose sight of the best wecan be in this world. If a lawyer forgets this he gets into the rut, where he waits for opportunities to profit by the misfor- tunes of others. I don't speak for this ele- ment—these professional undertakers of commercial funerals. The lawyers of to- day should be business men, The day of the dry-as-dust lawyer Is done, “Now what are the relations between the lawyer and the business man? Modern business has grown to such magnitude that the greatest knowledge is needed by those who engage in it. Business hag been spe- cialized. You credit men are an outgrowth of this specialization tn business. The credit man is practically at the helm in modern business. His duty is to see that the profits on one hand are not eaten up by losses’ on the other, through tmprudent gsaics. The race of. creditors in a bank- ruptcy case results in the slaughter of a customer and amall dividends. The new way is the co-operation between creditors.’ Mr. F. EF. Marshall, cashier of the Con- tinental National Bank, was the next eaker. His subject was, “Credit from the ankers’ Standpoint.”” In part he said: “Hiow to pass on and make credit suc- without lose is a problem which always be solving. There is no infallible rule, Bankers make two loans, on collateral security and on § credit. PDemosthenes saya there are two kinds of property, money and credit, and the great- est se whe | is credit. The most important thing for a business man to establish ts credit. Credit Is money's equivalent, and when wisely used becomes powerful,”’ The balance of his address was an ex- gt aga of the difficulties that beset the nker in his struggles with the credit probieen and an exhortadion to diligence and care in raising the standard of credit 70 «6€©wits)6«6proper position in the business world.

FREEDOM FOR CUBA. JUSTICE—LIBERTY-—HUMANITY. ON TO HAVANA. A fleet of four cruisers and two torpedo boat destroyers bot- tled up in Santiago harbor or dodging in West*Indian waters holds the war forces of the United States in check. It is a search for a needle in a haystack and not much of a needle at that; but the navy is restrained from attacking the enemy. and the army is held inactive until the needle can be found. Havana's fortifications might be reduced in half a day, but the guns of the warships are silent because the Spanish squad- ron is in Cuban waters. We have a naval force sufficient to escort troops in trans- ports to Cuba with perfect safety, but the troéps must wait until the Spanish squadron is disposed of. If Havana were attacked the Spanish Admiral would be compelled to come out of his hiding place to hélp the assailed Spanish forces or be branded as a coward and a pueritile trick- ster. But the slow, uncertain process of searching for the dodg- ing enemy in wide seas and winding harbors is pursued. Meanwhile the sufferers in Cuba, whom we took up armas to Bave, die like rats. A great navy and a great army wait—for the enrichment of contractors and the amusement of the world. Onto Havana. Let us strike where we can strike. Let us finish the work we have begun. = = i i Hawalian leper annexation is one of the calamities which may come with the war, though it has not the slightest rela- tion to Cuban freedom. ae a A NEW DREIBUND. ‘William Leibnecht, the German Socialist, says that “the United States have crossed the Rubicon of neutrality,” and he predicts a new “Dreibund’’—Great Britain, Japan and the Tinited States—which shall “sound the death knell of tradi- tional international politics.” If such a combination comes about it will sound the death knell of many traditional things. Democracy is supreme in Anierica and England and no doubt is making headway in Japan. And the mission of Democracy is to make new prece- dents, These thoughts are yet nebulous dreams. The whole world, however, is peering into the future, trying, if it may be, to catch some glimpse of events to come,. And there is some Feason to believe that great changes are close at hand, So many people are interested in prolonging the war that it is possible to carry it into 1900. = = bd . isa WHAT IS COURAGE? Admiral Dewey, according to his own story, is not the only hero of Manila. He shares the honors with Montejo. _Itis strange that men who know: s0 well how to die, should mot know how to live. The Spaniards meet death with indif- ference. They throw away their lives coolly, like men who Jove to look upon the King of Terrors, | Perhaps that is their fatal vice. They throw away their dives, They waste themselves like spendthrifts, They squan- + @er their powers instead of holding them as a trust from _ heaven to expend with intelligence and sound judgment in service of a cight cause, They are not really brave, for @ bravery never leads a man to give away his lifa He must first be assured that the Investment is a good one, - gthat it will bring a return of human good, if not of personal ' Denefit.

STEFHENS’. WARNINGS. . The comments of the State press on the Stephens Adrhinise tration, which the Post-Dispatch reprinted, make unpleas- ant reading for Gov. Stephens, But the reading may be profit,,, y able if the Governor rightly interprets the Warning. It was a remurkable collection of newspaper excerpts. though clipped in the main from Democratic newspapers these exeerpts embodied severe criticism of the officia) conduct of the Democratic Governor. It is an unusual thing for Democratic newspapers to turn their batteries of criticism against a Democratic Administra- tion. Nothing but the most extraordinary blundering or wrong-doing can change the loyalty of party newspapers into open hostility. But Gov. Stephens has succeeded in earning for himeelt and his Administration the opposition of his party organs. Ile has forced them, in defense of the party, to assail its offi- cial representatives. This is the logical result of the course of conduct against which the Post-Dispatch warned Gov. Stephens. When he appointed Brady Election Commissioner and gave him the task of constructing a Stephens machine in St. Louis; when he yielded to the influence of men whom the Democrats of St. Louis had repudiated and placed “the gang” in charge of the Administration’s power in this city he made his own downfall in the esteem of good Democrats inevitable. He en- tered upon a course which meant his own undoing. Hostile criticisms from his own party newspapers are sig- nificant. They ure warnings of past blunders. They pojnt to the only salvation for him in future. If he throws off the yoke the vicious elements of the party have placed on him he may redeem his Administration. If he continues to wear ‘¢ the Administration will go from bad to worse. It will be plunged into a slough of scandal. a The territory of the United States is already vast and we can defend ourselves successfully against any enemy that may attack us. Our policy should certainly be something bet- ter than the old barbarous idea of conquest and annexation. We do not need another foot of ground and should only con- sent to annexation when it is asked by the people who are near enough to wish to join us, The evil of public executions is shown in the Krogadt case in Texas, where the crowd that had come to see the hanging were so disappointed that they threatened to lynch the con- victed murderer when they learned that the execution had been postponed. It is possible that the murderer is a lunatic, hut this fact did not count with a crowd who had made up its mind to see a killing. s.r. i i If the Spaniards expect to end the war with arbitration they mistake the temper of thé American people. The United States Government will not humiliate Spain. That {s not the way of Americans. But- the settlement must be dictated by the victor, not prescribed by a court of arbitration. And the Spanish Government need not fear to submit to the gen- erosity of America. ++9— When Spain shull have been wiped from the map the devil will not die. In various corners of our own beautiful and enlightened republic he will continue his operations with more or less energy and perseverance, >> i Did Blanco compliment his own race and nation when he appealed to Gomez to sell out his cause? To ask a Spaniard, because he is a Spaniard, to betray his friend is not saying much for Spanish character. = = * — a a. The desperation of the Spaniards is pitifully apparent in the lately published correspondence between Blanco and Go- mez.

Before giving the Municipal Assembly any more power wouldn’t it be well to make that body use what it has prop- erly and in the public interest? = = No nation without a high ideal can be great.

Possibly Columbus himself could not discover Cervera, Spanish craft would save Spain’s craft if craft alone could save them. A living boss is better than ea dead Colonel, may be Uncle Henry’s view of glory. It may be that the Administration has all this waiting for Uncle Henry. Why haven't we had a war balloon to send up and look down into that Santiago bottle? The Spaniard is something of a pig himself; and he appears to be a pig with a greased tail, Perhaps the administration will kindly consult a clairvoyant and tell-us where Cervera flits. : It may come to pass that a woman will have more shirt waists than a man has neckties. Montejo (or Montijo or Montojo) is brave, but the get-up-and- get-away touch seems to be with Cervera, If the bottle has been corked after Cervera has popped out, Wwe may as well go out of the bottling business, Jim Corbett has just knocked down a big ox with his fist, but Jim is not always 80 successful in hitting brutes, If Cervera is more sly than Schley it will have to be remem- bered that “Thervy” is a Spaniard and was born that way. The name Cervera is said to be a feminine form of the wor “deer-keeper.” This may explain why Cervera is so fleet. Cervera does not believe in fighting and running away. He knows that the best thing to do is to rum away before any Hamage is done. It is understood.,that @ dispatch from Madrid by way of Paris relates that Spain is greatly relieved by the arrival of a rumor that Uncle Henry is not to lead a regiment inte Cuba. Gen. Blanco’s acknowledgment of the “clear intelligence and noble feelings'’ of Gen, Gomez is a delicious bit of taffy which the insurgent leader must greatly enjoy without chewing on it.

They scout the idea that the occupation of Porto Rico, the Philippines or Hawaii might lead to a concerted protest and action by the powers, ? It was said to-day by a representative of a European power that the exhibition of friendliness to this country by Great Britain was attracting attention, but that the foreign diplomats did not believe that an alliance was possible. He intimated that the sentiment of the proposed alliance is confined to the moneyed classes and that, the former Irish and German citizens are not in favor of an alliance, and would render an opposition sufficient to prevent it. The diplomat pointed out that Gere many was as friendly to the United States as Great Britain, but had not made dem- onstrations of this feeling. Respecting Austria, the diplomat said her position was along the same line as that of Germany. Being a member of the Dreibund they have like interests and policies on all foreign affairs. The only adverse sentiment in Austria came from court people, because of family relations with the court of Spain. Italy, it was said, was practically inthe same position as Austria, also being a member of the Dreibund and having a foreign policy similar to that of Germany. France is regarded as more deeply interested in the present war than any other nation, but thus far has remained merely an observer. She has repeatedly assured this country of her intention to be absolutely neutral, although the war has affected — her trade disastrously. Between April 1 and May 9 French exports to the Usiet ae States slumped off $7,000,000, while American exports to France dropped $5,200,000, The attitude of Russia is friendly, and consistently so, and diplomats do — 4 doubt that Russia will remain so during the war. = NOT IMPRESSED WITH THE HOLLAND BOAT. | ‘The Government Will Not Us.

Col. Nelson Cole of St. Louis was one of the three Brigadier-Generals of volunteers appointed by President McKinley yesterday. The formal notice of the appointment has not ‘been forwarded yet. It will arrive probably by to-morrow and Col. Cole will then send hig acceptance. After the ac- ceptance the appointment will be confirmed by the Senate and Gen, Cole will be for- warded his commission. He will then be ready to go whither the War Department may assign him. To carry out this order of affairs will require a few days, and it is not likely that the General will leave St. Louis before a week or 10 days at the earliest. This much Gen, Cole told a Post-Dispatch reporter last evening when he announced that he would accept the President's ap- pointment. Gen. Cole has no idea to what division of the army he will be assigned. He is ready to go anywhere. The gray-bearded but spry old soldier would go to Cuba in a mo- ment, but he would prefer the Philippines. In fact, he has managed to let Mr. Me- Kinley know already that he'd like to see service under Gen. Merritt. Three years ago Gen. Cole and Congress- man Pearce took a trip around the world. Hong Kong was upon their itinerary, and they expected to see Manila. When they reached the Chinese city the war witn Japar’ was booming and the Japanese line of steamships had been discontinued. The contemplated journey to the Philippines had to be declared off, but Gen. Cole prom- ised himself at the time that he’d see the Philippines if he had to make a special trip back again. He little thought that he might next see the islands with a new United States uniform on his back. Still, if the War Department. thinks proper to make him lead a brigade of the Cuban Army of Invasion, the General will gO as wey as though he were sent to the Pacific. He doesn't fear yellow fever. He says the danger of yellow jack is over- estimated, “We have it right here in our own sea- coast cities,” he says, “and if the local conditions are defective we have an eni- demic. Often the fever is checked. BHe- cause it's Cuba there is no reason why Americans should be frightened at the et oe fever.”’ . a : 4 eS A ne Phes air | . @. x ig CURED.

Copyright by the Press Publishing Company, 1898. KINGSTON. Jamaica, May 28.—Your correspondent has been compelled to put in here in stress of storm on the dispatch boat Premier, and is enabled to cable ‘you this complete report of the movements of Commodore Schley’s Flying Squadron up to last Wednesday. Schley had with-him on Wednesday last the battleships Iowa, Massachusetts and Texas: the armored cruiser Brooklyn, the Commodore's flagshipe the cruiser Marblehead. the gunboat Castine, the torpedo boat Dupont, the torpedo-boat de- 6troyers Vixen and Eagle. : For three days they watched the narrow entrance of Cienfuegos harbor, with every gun fully manned, believing that the enemy was inside. Lookouts could see the top masts of four ships that were in the harbor, and they lost no time in concluding that the enemy was in sight. A torpedo boat sneaked inside the harbor the first night to within a little more than half a mile of the ships. They decided these to be four cruisers of Cervera’s fleet. The Marblehead and Eagle returned from .a scouting expedition Tuesday last and announced that it had been learned from insurgents that the Spanish fleet was not inside Cienfuegos harbor. Then Schley gave orders to put to sea in a hurry. Some delay was occasioned by the necessity of several boats coaling from a collier, but in a reasonable time the squadron proceeded. Wednesday a storm came up and the Premier weathered it for a time, but was compelled to slow down, and finally put in here for coal, and so allow your corre- spondents to cable this report. \ SCHLEY EXERCISED CAUTION IN ALL MOVEMENTS. Schley’s fleet left Key West Thursday and arrived 60 miles off Cienfuegos Sat- urday night. It lay there all night, and on Sunday morning ran in about eight miles off the entrance of the harbor. The fortifications at the entrance had been de- etroyed by the Marblehead, when two of her boats’ crews were engaged in cutting cables a few days before. But there were great contact mines in the channel and the Commodore had to be cautious. ~~ Sunday afternoon cannonading was.heard, and in the evening searchlights were seen to play over the harbor and town. Monday morning the British steamer Adula atrived from Jamaica. The Captain showed a permit from the State Department at Washington to pass the blockade and take off several hundred refugees under pro- tection of the British Consul. The Captain of the Adula reported to Commedore Schley that Friday night he had sighted seven ships in a bunch off Santiago, apparently bound for Cienfuegos. We here in Kingston had placed the Spanish fleet at Santiago, but the Captain of the Adula said that when he was there Saturday tiie Spanish fleet was not. The Adula was permitted to proceed on her mission of mercy. She was to have come out Tuesday morning, but up to the time the fleet sailed she had not been seen. ; The failure of the Adula to come out, as her Captain had promised, would look suspicious, but information that the Marblehead and Eagle brought toward sun- down, convinced the Commodore that the Spanish fleet was not inside Cienfuegos. ALARMED BY AN INLAND BATTLE. About an-hour after the arrival of the fleet off the harbor Sunday the first shots were heard ashore. They seemed to be approaching the entrance of the harbor. © Instantly the signal to clear our ships for action was run up by the flagship. Then all the movable stuff went overboard. On the Texas even the ice chest went into the sea. Bugle calls and the beating of drums were heard from one to the other, There was not a conning tower captain in the outfit. Every man, from the Commo- dore down, went on the bridge to fight his ship. Next came the command, “Silence!” A little later came, “Cast loose and provide!” __ Every gun was manned. The guns were swung loose. Fresh ammunition was at hand. All the guns that could be brought to bear were pointed at the mouth of the harbor. ! Then came a wait. Five, 10, 15 minutes passed. There was a signal on the flag- ship and torpedo boat came around from behind the other ships, where she had been hiding. She dashed up to the entrance, then away, and back and away again. Firing was still heard inland, but she could not get sight of the enemy. For half an hour the ships stood ready to pulverize anything that appeared. When “return from quarters” was sounded some of the gunners were ready to cry from disappointment. | Some time afterward two Cubans came from the westward in a small boat and reported that there had been an engagement inland between the Cuban and Spanish forces. The Spaniards were forced to retire to the city. The Cubans said the Spanish had lost 300 killed. They also said that there were 1200 Spanish troops in the city, well supplied with arms and ammunition, and that the entrance to the harbor was a narrow passage, seven miles long, and well mined. DESPERATE DEFENSE IS INTENDED. There were schooners inside that the Spaniards intended to sink in the channel in case of attack. : These Cubans had not been in the city for some days, and knew nothing about the fleet supposed to be hiding there. That night the Dupont felt her way a long distance over the field of mines in the harbor entrance, clear up'to the fort, but could go no further, without taking tremen4o4s chances of discovery. She stayed in the entrance half an hour. It was too dark to sce things clearly, but she got a good outline of the surroundings. After that, Sunday, Commodore Schley’s ships moved up closer to the shore and formed a crescent about the entrance. The torpedo boat stayed inside the crescent, patrolling close in shore. Every man, on every ship, including the Chaplains, was on watch. : Everybody was so on edge that in the gray dawn the lowa narrowly missed being fired on when she arrivedefrom’ Key West. She was not identified quickly in the haze. There was a second ¢all to quarters and the order to prepare for imme- diate action. : The preparations this time consisted merely of the men jumping up to the guns, beside which they were lying. The signals of the Iowa were made out before any damage was done. : ; » Later Monday the Hawk arrived with dispatches from Key West, and the latest news there, to the effect that Cervera was at Santiago. Commodore Schley bent the Scorpicn oft to Santiago to scout about. | The night passed like Sunday night. At 6 o'clock Tuesday morning three ships ‘were sighted co'ning from the south. Quick as a flash, again went the order, “Clear for action! : Then nine shots were counted. That is a Commodore's salute. With a sigh of disappointment, Schley answered from the flagship with seven guns and instantly issued orders, “No more firing salutes.” The approaching ships were the+Marblehead, the Vixen and the Eagle. The Marblehead and Eagle had been on a scouting trip and a little while after their re- turn the news went forth that the Cienfuegos blockade had been in vain—the enemy was not there. A little after sunset Tuesday, as early as the ships could be coaled, the Flying Squadron started in the direction of Santiago de Cuba Cervera may still be there, but if his only intention was to land supplies and coal ‘he has had time enough to be out in the middle of the Atlantic, or—anywhere Schley could not possibly have reached Santiago de Cuba before last night and probably will not arrive there before late to-night. There is still a question as to whether the information the Marblehead obtained is reliable. As previously stated, it was given by friendly Cubans. but might not they have been the enemy's emissarics, sent out for the purpose of sending our ships on enother wild goose chase? The news that the enemy's fleet was probably at Santiago hid come by this time and the squadron was under way as soon as coaling was completed. Nething has been heard here from either the fleet or Sanciazo since the Premier parted company with Schley Wednesday. He may have arrived at Santiago Thurs. day, if the .“orm was not too severe.

P. iin. wr Special Cable to the Post-Dispatch. Copyright by the Press Publishing Company, 1898. LONDON, May 28.—The pathos of William E. Gladstone’s funeral to- day centered around the grief-stricken figuie of his aged and devoted wife. The shock of his death has lightened for a time at least the clouds that had begun to darken her mind and spared her the pain, realizing her beloved hus- band’s sufferings. A moment of sublime emotion, bringing tears to all eyes in that unique gathering of princes, divines and statesmen, gathered round the grave of Eng- land’s greatest citizen, was when the widow, supported lovingly by her two weeping sons, tottered feebly, her frail frame shaking with heart-broken sobs, to the brink of the grave to cast a long, lingering look of anguish at the cas- ket containing the body of her illustrious husband. , When the stricken woman turned away and sank back into her chair, the Prince of Wales, inspired by one of those touches of fine feeling which ac- count so largely for his popularity, took Mrs. Gladstone’s hand in his and, with whispered words of consolation, kissed it reverently. The other pall- bearers all followed this manly example, thus providing a spontaneous dem- onstration of sympathy more affecting than any state pageant ever devised. \j-0—0—0—_ 000-000-009 0 8-000-009-0000 0-0-0. Special Cable to the Post-Dispatch. Copyright by the Press Publishing Company, 1898. LONDON, May 28.—England’s greatest citizen, William E. Gladstone, was to-day his race, laid to rest in the Valhalla of . o M:litary pomp, the outward trappings pageantry, were absent, but the cerernonial was glorified by the homage of his greatest surviving cotemporaries and by the senti- ment of universal reverence expressed in the outspoken gratitude of a free people. Whatever meagerness there was in the ly- ing in state there was none whatever about the funeral. In every respect that cere- mony was impressive, lofty, dignified. This was fitting to the funeral of one who after all was essentially a civilian. ‘TItere weile no nodding plumes nor a mighty procession, for the coffin was carried on a simple funeral cariage and the distance between Westminster Hall and Westm.nster Abbey is but a few steps. But the peopie, as at the lying-.n state, were an impressive, wistiul signt, Juvery spot on which the eye lit swarmed wich hu- man beings. They peeped at you from winh- dows of hospitals and trom rools of houses, Everybody nearly was dressed in black, and there was the same unbroken somberness of demeanor which has been characteristic the last few days. Indeed there was some- thing positively thrilling in the ynbroken silence of this vast multitude, which added immensely to one’s sense of the Magnitude and solemnity of the occasion. The procession of members of Parliament formed in the House of Commons as carly as 9:30. The chamber presented the ap- pearance ‘at once curious ang impressive. There must have been 400 members present, and considering tWat the holidays have already begun this was a marvelots muster. It is said not a Liberal member was ab- sent, except the invalids, and Gladstone's opponents, the Tories, were also fully rep- resented. The Irish members were som@ 40 strong, a very considerable number con- sidering that it was vacation and the pres- ent circumstances of the party. Mr. Dillon sat in his susal place and close beside him were the men who are most closely associated with his leadership, among them Mr. Blake, one of the Mose impressive figures of the day with his tall stature, clear cut features and look of dis- tinction. None of the Parnellites were present nor was Mr. Healy. Everybody in the House was in the deepest black. The whole House looked to some extent like a funeral chamber. There was just one bit of color, the sergeant-at-arms had around his neck a silver collar tied with white silk bows, a curious and an unusual addition to his unhen the Speaker entered there was a surprise in store for the House, which saw its somberness a eromen 2 oe eed or e | rearea a pg oD ge tA ecollection in his lack gown a gar- impie ment that seeme e and brilliantly ric greatly to the impressiveness 0 and fine figure. ae —— dsomest men ~ aie cake of the House of Commons... After a considerable pause the Spe ne rose. At once every member Was “e™ s feet and then the ergeant-at-Arms, Pay. ing his mace on his shoulder, and the ap- lain and attendant formed into procession, foilowed by members of the present and late Government and members of the yt Council, a dignity frequently bestowed on political supporters whom the Government find impossible otherwise to reward. as The Irishmen had resolved to walk by themrelves so as to distinguish their group from the rest. Mr. Dillon was to give them the signal and just as the other members were leaving the House he rose from his lace and the Irish mempers followed his ead. The procession slowiy wended its way to. Weetminster Hal! where the coffin lay, still giving that impression of small- ness, remoteness and loneliness in the vast hall. There was a look fora second as the members passed the coffin, but no pause, and slowly but regularly the procession passed on until it got into the open air, then a great majority of the members put on their hats, but some of the Irishmen, especially those who walked in the first four with Mr. Dillon—that is, Blake, Swift. MoNelill and myself—kept uncovered throughout as more in accord with the sense of pathos and so.emnity of the oc- caasion. Some few English members did the same thing. The crowd pressed close to see the srocession as it passed, but whatever he elt the Londoner held his tongue. The same, impressive, solemn, unbroken silence continued even as the procession wound its way to the spot where the body was to rest.° The ceremony in the House of Lords was practically the same. The Lord Chancellor, who is the speaker of that assembly, unlike the Speaker of the House of Commons, was in undress. He wore his great wig. The Sergeant-at-Arms carried the brazen mace, an emblem of royal authority, and there was the usual retinue of purse bearer and train bearer and all other officials that form his little court. The attendance of the Peers was on as great a scale as that of the Commoners, a wonderful testimony to the universality of grief for Mr. Gladstone, as he was not a favorite of that body, and his very last speech in the House of Commons was de- livered in opposition to their claims. The pallbearers who walked on each side of the coffin were perhaps —_—o who the most atten a the of Prince of Wales York, or B,tt ¢ ; was es eae Ee ere es ” ww * ey ™ : of ‘ 4 “ : mee a agin . re o 4 ° , % . -? ~ ® f ¥ P “h-FOe TS RN, rh 2aF ae Pie: is Ke Abe ey age 5 ae : *. e0) eiemeal gy apt aac oe : i : as A ae % , % TF 2a a eee io gos . re * eee, % * : a *ariiament were joined in the same hom- a Salisbury was a picturesque lgure = Ss way—massive in -height and sfill ore massive in weight and heavily tg ge He added to the impresstveness ns pe pee rihh n 2 and to the curiousness : e by w zas velvet skull can y wearing a small black Arthur Balfour Js just as thin as his uncle is stout and he bore 2 his face the mark of the somewhat painful return he recently had of the univer-al plague through which he passed last year. _ Sir Wiliam Harcourt is alzo a massive figure, some 6 feet 4 inches tall and built on gigantic proportions. , Finally Mr. Armistead, a faithful friend who looked after the comfort of Mr Glad- Stone for many years and was his com- panion in nearly ail his travels, is a gi- santic man, with a long white beard with mien and bearing of a Viking of old. A country with such a vast system of class distinction and old institutions as england cannot be without picturesqueness and difterence of color on even so studious- ly simple an occasion as this. Several times the eye Was eaught by the sight of it beautiful patch of color, choirboys dressed in scarlet tunics, gorgeous footmen with powdered hair and other indications that this is a land of opulence, magnificence and caste, but the prevalent color was somber Westminster Abbey was crammed jn most parts, though there was no overcrowding and there was something almost oppress- ive in those tremendous rows of women all dresséd in the same deep, universal black—black gowns, black jackets black hats, black feathers and black gloves There was something almost like relief in the white surplices of the ecc.eSiastics Through thé dim nave the different pro- cessions took their slow solemn way In due order the two houses of Parliament faced each other in the galleries erected for the occasion and in the space left between them was the open grave. On the floor of the Abbey waiting to receive its illustrdous remains there wa’s SOmething that resem- bled a great theatrica] performance in this arrangement of the two houses as specta- tors in their long tiers of galleries around the grave, but the somberness of colors and dim light that came in through the win- dows and the hosts of ecclesiastics soon oe this oo ig oe the whole ceremonial fas solemn an y last bbc eautiful, worthy to the n the center of each gallery w: presiding officer with the mace beste hime Each speaker seemed to be a sort of core to the gallery, its central] most prominent figure. Down below one caught sight of the pallbearers as they stood around the small and simple coffin. Looking a little c.oser you saw a number of figures that you began slowly to recognize as members of the bereaved family. There was a thrill and a hush, though no spoken exclamation us the devoted wife walked to her place on the arms of her two sons, one a parson and rector of the Ancestral Home Ha- warden, the other, Henry, an East Indian merchant. Behind them came Herbert Gladstone, the only one who has adopted a political career, and in his charge were a number of young people, boys and girls who looked sweet and touching in their mourning, and with their young, ignorant interest in all that was going on. Their out- spoken comment was curiosity. The choir of Westminster Abbey is fine at any time but for this occasion special Preparations had been made and there was a recruiting of the best voices from sev- era] other choirs of the metropolis. The re- sult was universal praise for the beauty harmony and perfection of the music, : The selection of hymns for the occasion was entirely ruled by what were known as the tastes of the ‘“‘old man” himself. It was known that Bishop Newman’s hynin, | Praise to holiest, etc,””’ was his favorite | , information, Burnham was @ partner in the and accordingly this hymn found a proml- nent place in the music of the day. “Rock | of Ages”’ was also one of Gladstone's fav- orites. so much so that he made a latin translation of it which was printed in the programme beside the English words. The musical selections were typical of all such ceremonies, that is to say, there was a mixture of the inevitable sadness of death and parting and of joy founded on hopes of a blessed immortality. At one time music fell down to a low, soleenn tender whisper then again you heard the trombones re- sound through the, vast bullding, ving a sense of joy and exaltation, of final victory over death and corruption. That hed the most startling and at the same time the most thrilling effect upon the imagination. There was no sermon. It would have been too small in the great proportions of the ceremony and surroundings. The eat epiatie of Paul, with its final paean of vic- tory over death, was read, but the voice of the reader was partially lost In the vast spaces, and those always impressive words 1 sounded almost weak and Intrusive. When the leason had been read and the | healt last hymn, “Oh, God, our help in ages past,’” been sung, the Archbikhop of Can- terbury in his loud, almost harsh voice, pro- nounced the final benediction. Then came one of the saddest moments of the day. The widow of Mr. Gladstone was supperted to the edge of the grave and there she took a last, ong look and then was conducted away still on the arms of her two sons. Other relatives followed her example and then most of the members of the two houses passed to the side of the grave and looked at the coffin which lay deep down and which by this time is swallowed up from sight until another grave is bullt for the sur- Meh partner of that beautiful house- ui. The dead enarch in Saul and the Messe Solemnelle of ®&chubert were played as congregation slowly wended ites way out.

It is not often the prisoners in the St. Lou!s jail have the privilege of listening to a sermon preached by one of their num- ber. They will enjoy that novel experl- ence this afternoon. Walter Vrooman has announced his inten- tion of exhorting his fellow prisoners at 2:%) o'clock. He thas not announced his subject or text, but says it will be a dis- course on the Lord’s prayer. Mr. Vrooman is charged with larceny: He levied on two election booths for a client, and shipped them away. The Election Com- missioners say the booths are the property of the State, and caused Mr. Vrooman’s arrest. Mr. Vrooman could have given bond forthwith. but it did not suit him to do so. He threatens to sue the Election Commis- sioners for $50,000 for false imprisonment, and he preferred to remain in jail. He was given a clean cell, allowed the privilege of dictating to his stenographer, and has lived off the fat of the land, so that his condition has not been intolerable. Those who have heard him say that Mr. Vrooman can preach a first-class sermon. If he‘can convert his fellow prisoners, his incarceration will not have been in vain. BRAZILIAN TREATY SIGNED.

At the same time the boy wrote a letter to Congressman Henry W. Hoffmann, who represented the Frederick district at Wash- ington. Hoffmann was a friend of oe Schley’s father and was well acquainte with the embryo hero. In .the letter “Scotty’’ Schley set forth with more force than rhetoric that he wanted to go to Annapolis, and that his family would not give him any help, and wouldn’t Mr. Hoff- mann please do something for him. Mr. Hoffmann would and did. He got him his cadetship at Annapolis, and young Schley entered at: the unusually early age of 15 years. At Annapolts he was not ad- dicted to burning the midnight oil to any extent. Like Grant, he graduated near the bottom of his class. The first interesting event after Schley’s graduation in 1860 was his taking his oath of allegiange to the Union after the Civil War broke out. He was aboard the frigate Niagara at the time, the ship being com- manded by a hardy old New England skip- per. The frigate was on her way from China, and there was much anxiety in the hearts of all on board about the latest news. Officers and men were both divided in their sympathy with the North and the South. Men and officers held their breath as the pilot came up the side and was hailed with “Well, pilot. what’s the news?’ “Sumter’s fired on and the country’s gone to pieces,’’ the pilot replied. It was a pathetic scene, and there were few dry eyes aboard the frigate. The weather-beaten old skipper ordered afl sail and told the pilot to lay his course for Bos- ton. Then he glanced at the flag, raised his cap-in ealute and said to the officers about him: SCHLEY STOOD BY THE FLAG. “The flag’s servant, and yours, gentle- men.’’ With bowed head he went to his cabin. Next day he made a touching ap- peal to the men to remain true to their flag, and then told each to go to his quar- ters and think the matter over. Young Schley withdrew with the others, thought the matter over for himself, and signed his name on the list of those who intended to remain true to the Union. At the same time that the Commodore renewed his oath of allegiance to the Stars and Stripes his brother Tench was enlisting in the Confederate army. Both brothers, despite the difference in their political opinions, had one bond in common—their little sister, Nellie, the youngest of the family. As Tench Schley was fighting his way through the Federal eee. aoe = ae A LIVING WITNESS. Mrs. Hoffman Describes How She Wrote to Mrs. Pinkham for Advice, and Is Now Well Dear Mrs. PinkuAm:—Before using your Vegetable Compound I was a great sufferer. [ have been sick for months, was troubled with severe pain in both sides of abdomen, sore feeling in lower part of bow- els, also suffered with dizziness, headache, and could not sleep. I wrote you a letter describ- ing my case and asking your advice. You replied tell- 7 ne me just what todo. I ” followed your direc- tions, and cannot praise your medicine enovgh for what it has done for me. Many thanks to you for your advice. Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Com- pound has cured me, and I will recom- mend it to my friends.—Mrs. FLoREncz R. HorrMAan, 512 Roland St., Canton, O. The condition described by Mus. Hoff- _man will appeal to many women, yet lots of sick women struggle on with their daily tasks disregarding the urgent warnings until overtaken by actual collapse. The present Mrs. Pinkham’s experi- ence in treating female ills is unparal- leled, for years she worked side by side with Mrs. Lydia E. Pinkham, and for sometimes past has had sole charge of the corres —— ee lines and the possibility of his escaping with his life seemed little short of miracu- lous ‘he wrote a letter to his brother in the United States Navy, saying: “If anything happens to me be sure aud look out for the little sister.”’ ' The brothers fought against each other, though without knowing it, at Vicksburg. The Commodore was fighting under Farra- gut and Tench was on the other side, Years afterwards, when time had healed their political differences, both brothers used to chaff each other considerably about the Vicksburg siege. Tench, on that memorable occasion, wore a long feather in his cap and the Commo- dore used to declare that he aimed time and time again at the little popinjay with the long feather, who hopped about elud- ing his aim like a monkey on a rubber string. “As for me,’’ Tench used to reply, “I Kept aiming at a big nose during the entire engagement. I ought tO have recognized your nose, Scotty, but I didn’t.’’ WOULDN'T STOP FIGHTING. One of the characteristic stories aboué Schley that is remembered to this day by +e few surviving eye-witnesses is as fol- Ows: During the civil war Schley had com- mand of a gunboat under Farragut. One day the Admiral summoned young Schley, and pointing to a confederate fort, said: “Do you see that place, Schley? Go knock it to pleces.”’ Schley went and was hammering the fort to bits when his quartermaster rushed up to him and said: “Captain, the Admiral has signaled us to — and return to the fleet.” ‘To —— with the signal! I won’t see it,"’ answered Schley. He kept pousaing away at the fort until it was in ruins. hen he returned to the fleet. Farragut was angry, and summoned him. Before all the officers of the flagship he gave Schley a fierce dressing for not obeying the recall signal. “IT didn’t see it,” prothated Schley. You must have shut the eye that you put the glass to,” said Farragut. After again taking him fore and aft for his disobedience the Admiral took him into the cabin, out of sight of the other officers, and gave him a drink of the finest diquor aboard. “D—— it, Schley,”’ said the Admiral, giv- ing him a slap on the shoulder, “that’s the way to fight.’’ Another good Schley story relates to his very carly days in the navy. After being detached from the Niagara, he was as- signed to the Owosco as executive officer. Her ‘commander was a chat es | devotee of the flowing bowl, and periodically had to retire to the seclusion of his cabin, where he would remain a week at atime. The Owosco was stationed off Mobile Bay and was one of a small squadren of which Capt. James Alden, of the Richmond, was senior officer. MADE HIMSELF CAPTAIN. Alden was notified one morning that the gig of the Owosco was approaching with the Captain's pennant flying. Arraying himself in full military dress, Capt. Alden repared to receive his guest. hen the Swosco's gig came alongside, the man who ran up the rope ladder was Lieut. Schley. “Tl expected to see the Captain of the Owosco,” said Alden with considerable hauteur, “tT am the Commander of the Owosco, sir,”’ responded te i i “Since when, may I ask? “An hour ago, sir.’ : “Where is your captain?’ “Locked up in the cabin, sir, I think. “Who locked him in?” “Tl did. I first put him under arrest and then shut him up in the cabin. Then took command of the ship, and here I am to report for orders.” The Captain of the Richmond, while he appreciated the ludicrous side of the af- fair and was inclined to hugh, said as sternly as ssible: ‘The first order I'll give you !s to lower the pennant in that gig, go back to your ship, sir, unlock the cabin door and restore “apt. —— to duty. en report to me in writing if the Captain's illness incapaci- tates him, and I will know what to do. Don’t be in too great a hurry to get com- mand of a ship, Mr. Schiey.” But, nevertheless, Schley was Captain bedore long and Alden helped him to the rank. Commodore Schley married Miss Nan- nie Franklin, daughter of Mr. George R, Franklin of Annapolis. They have three children—Thomas Franklin, Virginia and Winfleld Seott. In 189 Virginia married Ralph Granville Montague Stewart w of the Earl of Wharn- at fnited States as a railroad man and a financier. One of the Commodore's sons is in the army; the other is in business. Commodore nner is the Mol of his men. By some process known only to himseif he remembers the birthdays of his crew and never neglects to congratulate and shake handa with them on their birthdags.

SUNDAY MORNING—ST. LOUIS POST-DISPATCH—MAY 2, 189% THE ~ KINDERGARTEN, LEO PLANTER WON THE FEAT- URE AT THE FAIR GROUNDS YESTERDAY. FAUSTURO WAS A BAD SECOND. The Crowd Was Large, the Track Heavy and the Speculation the . Best of the Meeting. It looked like old times at the, Falr Grounds yesterday afternoon. The grand stand was well filled and the attendance Was the biggest of the meeting. But it was in the betting ring that things looked prosperous. No less than 19 bookies Were in line, the largest number that has drawn in on any day during the past two years. The play was good and many, new faces ‘were seen in the ring, perhaps drawn here from Chicago by the cinch betting plan now in operation at the Harlem track. The track yesterday was damp and heavy, but the going was safe and all the races were well contested. During the afternoon ‘“‘Jonsey” called the Brooklyn handicap from the press stand and when he announced Ornament as the winner a loud cheer went up. The victory appeared to please the Western foiks, who are now in the majority at the local track. pind then they peeeneeer ed, too, that Tod i , & Western boy, w I e% 60n of Order. ‘ ao eee ‘The Kindergarten stake was the feature , Yesterday. It was a five furlong dash, worth 1500 to the winners, and it brought a good eld to the post. Leo Planter, -a 10 to 1 shot, furnished the surprise party in this event, winning handily by three lengths from Fausturo, the Schorr candidate, with Burns, the crack jockey, up. There were only five starters {in the first race, and of these Forbush was the favor- ite atdtos&.

Of these Prince of India was the favorite at ll to 10. He gave his backers a poor run for their money, staying with the rear bunch and never show ng until the very iast part of it. Hush, a 13 to 1 shot led all the way and won by three lengths from Prince of India. Laverna, a 30 to 1 shot, was third. Billy Kerwin, who owns the winner, called the attention of the press boys to the fact that his horse was number thirteen on the programme, that the price against him was 13 to 1 and that he had won his‘race on the thirteenth day of the meeting. “This settles forever the heat og gs * number thirteen is a G00,” said Mr. Kerwin 3 “ his 13 to Fticaet Wn as he flourished Six of the lot carded started in the third race.

Many risked their money on Fausturo, the son of Faustus, who belongs to J. C. Cahn and who was considered the best 2-wear-old at Memphis this spring. Two to one was offered against ls chances. The others were long shots. There were two or three false breaks. When they got away Fauwsturo went into the lead and made a run away race of it to the’ stretch, Then Leo Planter came out of the bunch and when near the betting shed appeared to have the i@ce well in hand. He won galloping by three lengths from Fausturo, who was a length ahead of Ben Bramble. Judge Tarvin was fourth, Jerry Hunt, fifth; Leostratus, sixth, and Tobe Paine, seventh and ast. The fifth race at a mile, a free handicap for 3-year-olds and upwards, brought five ood horses to the post. St. Roque was the avorite at 7 to 5, but he proved a rank counterfeit. At flag fall, Fervor and Our Chance raced away like a double team, and ran the first three-quarters with the others away back in the woods. Comin home Fervor came away, and at the hea of the stretch he appeared to be making a runaway race of it. Then McDonald shook imp. Skate, who had been going along eas ly, and he came beautifully and beat Fervor to the post by a full length. Our Chance was third, Madeline fourth and the much-touted favorite St. Roque fifth and last. Of the 15 carded in the sixth race only six the track not being to ye the issue, the liking of the majority. Linda got ’ with a running start and led ihe Saiek tie first haif a mile.

SLOAN ON ORNAMENT — HE WON THE GREAT BROOKLYN HANDICAP HANDILY YES- TERDAY AFTERNOON. NEW YORK, May 28.—It was more or less a typical Brooklyn handicap day to-day. Nature was all tears in the morning and all smiles in the afternoon. The track was heavy, but it was not a mud horse that won, for Ornament, who was fit to run for his life, cantered home a winner amid _ the cheers of the crowd. At five minutes past 4 the bugle called the eight contestants to the post. After a couple of false starts the red flag swished through the air, and the silken jac4« ts flashed into line. With Ornament a length behind they rounded a slight turn and weeentened out on the first run past the grand stand. As they neared the judges’ stand the first time, Sly Fox was in the lead by a length, with Ogden next, two lengths in front of Don d'Oro, Tillo, Orna- ment, Ben Holladay, On Deck and Semper Ego following in the order named. There was little change in the pos.tion of the octette as they rounded the lower turn. As the lot turned into the back stretch Ogden two years ago the Futurity winner, ha enough of it in the sticky going, and fell back into the rear ranks, The jockeys began bunching a bit at this point and sent their horses along to test Siy Fox, for he seemed to be going easily in front. Don d’Oro was in second piace and Simms gave h.m a shove to get him a little nearer Sly Fox, and at the begin- ning of the upper turn he was lapped on Sly Fox and only a neck behind. Pillows also Japped on Don d'Oro, while: Ben Holladay was close up with Ornament lapped on hem. The others were trailing and anvarently all through. They were on the upper turn and had but three furlongs to go. All the boys were doing a little urging, but what of Sloan on Ornament? Suddenly he leaned far over on his horse's neck, gave him a little prick w:th his spurs and how he mowed the others down, going like a whirlwind. It was a streak of ceru- lean blue silk on a gleaming chestnut colt and the crowd roared. ‘Look at Sloan,’’ was the ery. It ‘was un- necessary for anyone to call, for everybody saw the jump of the great 4-year-old. Tillo, Don d’Oro and Sly Fox were passed like a flash and in the time it takes to tell Or- nament was in the lead. Then the boys got to work in earnest, but it was a useiess task, as far as the firet place was concerned, for they could not gain a foot on the flying Ornament, who was going easily in front. First race, handicap, six furlongs—Peat 126 (Sloan), 3 to 5, first by four lengthe; Al- varado 115 (Spencer), 4 to 1, second; Main- stay 116 (Taral), 5 to 1, third.

HIS SHORTSTOP IS TOO SENSITIVE. The Rooters on Hand Kept Still the First Game, but Got in Their Yell at Last. The Browns and Billy Barnie’s aggreg4- tion of paradoxes played two games at Sportsman’s Park yesterday afternoon and each scored a victory. Brooklyn won the first contest by the hair-raising score of 4 to 3, and Tim Hurst’s dark horses took the second by the rather lop-sided tally sheet of 8 to 3. As the visitors won Friday the series goes to the Bridegrooms, and it’s hard to write that such is the case. The weather yesterday was ideal for baseball playing. The grounds dried out to first-class shape by Zz o’clock and the sun didn’t begin making it warm for the layers until after the first man was at at. A crowd of 200 rabid cranks turned out to see the double header and when the second game was concluded there wasn’t a man who didn’t have a sore throat from yelling. lt was a typical Saturday afternoon crowd and rattling waar ony afternoon sport, even if the Brown’s di loose one game. By all methods‘ of base- ball nenpen ing. the first game should have belonged to the dark horses, but Col, Russ Hall of Kentucky, with his Southern hos- pitality, gave the gentlemen from the “Nawth” a few chances which they piompty accepted. Tim Hurst pitched Jack Taylor for the first game, and the big boy did well. The visitors tapped him eight times, which was but one more than the home team ripped off of Mr. Ryan’s half-cotton bolt of goods. It was a lucky day for Ryan. He must carry a charm around his neck. It’s a 100 to 1 shot that if he ever gives the Browns another go at him in the same 4 beag he was yesterday they'll pulverize m Manager Hurst says the newspapers by their harsh comments of Hall’s work at short are responsible for that player’s con- tinual flascos on ground balls. If they’ll jolly the boy, points out Hurst, he'll take a brace on and givc everybody a surprise party. Here’s a chance to test Tim's judg- ment. Of Hall’s ragged work in the first game yesterday not a word shall be said here, but if he doesn’t make good with the Senators to-morrow a special article shall be written telling of a few fumbles he made Saturday which were enough to make old Hi oe D‘xwell turn from the game in dis- gust. Brookiyn scored twice in the opening in- ning on hits by Jones, Sheckard and Dunn, St. Louis came back with one run on hits by Harley and Clements and Yeager’s passed ball. There was fast playing till the fifth inning, when, after Griffin had singled, Hall fum- bled Jones’ infield hit. Griffin scored on Dunn's long fly to Harley. This put Brook- lyn two to the good, but in the sixth and seventh the Browns made two runs by good stick work, tieing the score. In the eighth Shindle pasted one of ba A lor’s straight balls and made the circuit, winning the game, as the Browns were un- able to do anything in their half of the ninth. Score: FIRST GAME.

Charley Esper twirled championship ball in the second game and put a quick stop to Mr. Barney’s forward march. Up to the ninth inning cnly one hit was made off the former Philadelphia policeman, but in the ninth he let down visibly and permitted Griffin, Sheckard, Tucker and Shindle to line ’em out for three runs, Tucker’s hit being a corker to left for three bags. Hall did heroically in this inning in an attempt to redeem himself and not only made two hits, which resulted in runs, but he took part in an acrobatic turn with George Decker that brought down the grand stand. It was in the fifth inning. Two men were out and Miller banged a Savage one over Esper’s head right at the second bag. Hall dived for it and in ecoop- ing it 'n fell upon his knees. He let the ball go in this attitude of prayer, but it was short and to take it in Decker had to get upon his knees also. George’s shoe tips were touching the bag and Miller went out while the big crowd yelled with delight. he Browns began the jamboree in the fourth inning. Mr. Turner, who hadn't done anything in the previous game to earn him a medal, buncoed Miller into a free ticket for first. Harley made an in- field safety and then Sugden bunted. Mil- ler’s toes were too long, and after bootin the ball around he let Sugden land aad the bases were full. It was up to Cross, and he responded with a single to oenter scoring the first two men. Decker flied to Tucker and Carsey to cent@r, but the sensitive Col. Hall whacked out a double down the third base foul line which scored Sugden and Cross. Esper was out at first unassisted. 4 In the sixth Hall batted in another brace of runs, Sugden and Decker both having singled. The Browns scored in the seventh and eigth on a combination of hits and dummy plays by the visitors. Score: SECOND GAME. BROOKLYN. H Turner rf.. 8 Harley If.. Sugden c... Cross 3b... Decker 1h..

NEW CROP PROMISES WELL. Reports of a Big Yield All Over the World and Prices Will Set- tle Down. The flood of bearish news which has been coming for some time has at last begun to have its effeot, and the bears now appear to be in control of the grain markets, although the possibilitiey of a general European war and the ight supplies abroad have caused spasmodic spells of buying and made the fluctuations both rapid and wide. Wheat crop prospects continue to improve from day to day, both in this country and Europe, and the foreign markets appear to have grown weary of being influenced by war phantoma, and are beginning to pay more attention to legitimate conditions. Harvesting has already begun in some parts of this country, and some new wheat has already arrived at this market. The French wheat crop will be ready for cutting in 30 days, and according to the official és- timates of that country there will not only be enough wheat raised for their own re- quirements, but France will actually Rave some wheat to spare for export. The world’s visible supply of wheat showed a heavy increase for the week, which is a very unusual occurrence at this time of the year, and the world’s shipments were remarkably heavy, primary receipts continue’ phenomenally large and notwith- standing the heavy exports for the past season; the visible supply of wheat in this country {s only a little over 5,000,000 bushels less than it was a year ago. It is claimed that India will have an ex- ee surplus of 50,000,000 bushels, and erbohm says that the weekly shipments from that cou el during May, June apd July will exceéd 1,600,000 bushels. The Russian shipments of wheat for the week were enormous, and may be taken as a fair indication tyat a good crop of wheat is expected in that country, and this is further esmphas! by the fact that there are no bad crop reports from Russia. » Argentine continues to ship large quanti- ties of wheat, and the quality is said to be better than usual this season. Eu- ropean buyers are now convinced that, without some unusual occurrence, there will be plenty of wheat to carry them through until the new crop becomes avail- able, and in addition to all of this bear- ish news the volume of trading was ex- tremely light. The short interest is comparatively light, as the most of the traders were long wheat and the character of the market was such as to discourage short selling. The now famous “May deal’’ which was acknowledged to be responsible for the abnormally high prices, had but a few days to run, apd traders were inclined to wait until it was settled before venturing far from cover. During the latter part of the week, however, the bulls were tame and there were bears aplenty, and prices declined ww tty! On Saturday July wheat was offered down to 9l4c, Ac down from the high point of the season, but clozed at 92c. September wheat sold down to 8c and closed at 80%c. Cash wheat sold at May price, $1.15, but all markets were dull and slow. The local cash demand has become very slow and prices show a theavy decline. Millers are not now in the market and of- ferings are hard to dispose of. The buy- ing has been mostly for shipment to Chi- cag to fill May contracts and now that the time is so short purchasers have be- come very exacting. The greatest decline is noticeabkie in the lower grades, which, on account of there being no time to clean and mix them into contract grades in time for May delivery, are no longer wanted. The demand for flour has fallen off and purchases are being made on the hand to mouth plan, as dealers are unwilling to lay in stocks at the prerent prices. The market in corn has aleo been weak and ee Export clearances continue heavy, and the visible supply is decreasing rapidly, but the Argentine crop proves to be much better than was expected, the for- eign demand is falling off, the local cash demand is slow and the shipping demand is lesa urgent. Several of the large glucose factories have shut down for the present, and, owing to the war tax, the demand for distillery purposes is not so good as it has been. Loca] receipts continue ‘heavy, and receipts at primary points are running un- usually large. In addition to this it is getting so late fn the season that farmers who have large stocks on hand are anxious to sell in order to make room for the new crop, and 60 much trouble was experienced last. year with hot corn by both shippers and elevator men that no one appears anxious to carry corn through the hot season, Crop news has been rather bullish, as the wet weather has delayed the planting, and in many places replanting was necessary. Oats have also suffered a heavy decline in both cash and futures, and the market is in a very unsatisfactory condition. The local receipts continue heavy, and the cash demand is unusually slow. Shippers are in- different and the feeding demand is light. Offerings are liberal, and there is more pressure to sell than for some time. Spec- ulation very light. With the May deal out of the way, for- eigners reselling their recent purchases, an increasing visible supply, and new wheat beginning to move, a heavy decline may be looked for from now on until the beginning of the new crop season. The average decline in the price of cash wheat during the first half of June for a number of years has been over 5 cents, but as present prices are abnormally high a heavier decline may be reasonably ex- pected, Chat From ’Change.

GRANDMA M’ENNIS’ SURPRISE. Sixty-Five of Her Descendants Invade Her Home Unannounced.

I don’t know, mother,” said Mr. McEnnis:; ‘“‘you see, these are busy times, with the war and everything else going on, Still, I dare say one or two of ‘em might remember what day it is and come out to see ou.’”’ Then Mr. McEnnie went away chucklin as he thougat of the loving joke he ha played on his venerable life partner.

Kern's saloon is on the Manchester roed, which highway serves as the single street for ‘the hamlet of Ballwin. Houses are seattered along -either side.of the street for a quarter of a mile. , The Kern homestead is a two-story frame. house,. with eight or 10 rooms, be- sides the saloon room in front. It is sur- rounded by a pretty: garden, with beauti- ful flowers and plants. Honeysuckiles and risteria vines clamber up the side of the house. The dark green foliage and en- trancing blue blossoms of the latter al- most hide Kern’s window on the east side, Two sons, Romeo, aged 18, and Anton, Jr., aged 14, and the only daughter, Josephine, a pretty miss of 18, lived with the oid folks. Emile, a married son, aged 30, lives a few yards west, where he keeps a grocery storé. During the first night of Kern's fast his family did nothing. Next morning when they entered his room he was lying in bed, wide-awake, looking at the wall.’ His wife asked him how he felt and whether he wanted anything or not. “Let me aloné,”’ was the sole reply. This trio of words was the burden of his talk for the rest of Kern’s life. He rareiy said more, usually sqoke not at all and never said anything save in reply to direct questions. When he took to bed he weighed in the neighborhood of 170 pounds and, it is said, was in no poorer health than he had been for two years previous. Day followed day until a week had passed without a morsel having passed Kern's lips. His usually ruddy countenance took o1 a sallow hue and deep furrows made their appearance about his mouth and eyes.

That question was not decided by Father Lempke, the priest, who looks after the spiritual welfare of Ballwin Catholics, but Kern died beyond the pale of the Church, nevertheless. He declined to see the priest, called a week before his death, thinking the holy man had merely come to dissuade him from his purpose, and when Kern’s death approached, it carried him off before he could expres a desire for the last rites of Catholicisen.. A Protestant divine will perform § the funeral services and Kern will be buried im a little lodge cemetery on the hiliside, off the road at Manchester, two miles from his home. The man’s strongest characteristic, ac- cording to those who hed associated with him daily during the 20 years he lived at Ballwin, was obstinacy. It is said of him that this trait far over- @hadowed the many good features in his composition. It was acknowledged the country round that when Anton Kern brought down his fist on the counter of his ealoon and said that he would do a cer. tain thing, the doing of It was as certain as the rising of the morrow’s sun. Thus it was that when he shouted to his horrified relatives, on the afternoon of April 2, that he would never eat again, they only fell on thelr knees and wept. They cried against the fate which they knew would surely rob them of a loved one, a father, husband and protector. . It wae useless to remonstrate, they thought, and so they only grieved and hoped that the physical pain entalled by the vow would break the will they had never known to bend. It was about 4 o'clock on the day Kern ver taste food truly, was fal method was o—O0—0-—_0—-0—-0—-O) ginning of the second week he became s&ur- lier than before. At the appearance of any member of the family he would hastily cover his head and refuse to show his face. Every art known to the love of a wile or daughter was used to soften his heart and move him from his purpose. Tenderness was of no avail. He would listen to no coaxing nor brook caressing. ‘“‘Let me alone,”’ was all he would say. Hig many friends were taken to his bed- side, one by one, to try what influence they might have. It was with them as with the family. He covered his head and mumbled: “Let me alone.’”’ That he was losing flesh soon became ap- parent. He drank water sparingly and only at long intervals. It was finally decided, at the end of two weeks to summon a physician. The family doctor, August Meisch of Manchester, ac- cordingly called. Kern knew him, but refused to talk to him. The physician had treated him at various times for catarrh of the stomach. Food, not medicine, was needed then, and Dr. Meisch endeavored to persuade his old friend and patient to take a little liquid nourishment. Kern would have none of it and the doc- tor left a prescription. When the family smuggled some of the medicine into Kern's drinking water the detected it immediateiy and would not even drink water for days after that. Dr. Meisch made his first cail April 18. He visited Kern’s bedside almost daily af- ter that. The medical man was puzzled over the case. Kern was losing weight each day, but his vitality seemed as strong as ever. His mind was perfectly healthy. He knew every person who called and detected at its out- set any effort to persuade him to eat. At times he seemed to suffer the most excrutiating pains. His face would become set and hard and his eyes take on a glare like that of insanity. He would double his body up and claw at his stomach with his emaciated fingers until the long, razor-like nails cut into the flesh and brought the blood. During the third week of the fast Kern suffered most. There was not a day passed without one of those awful sieges of hunger which it seemed no man could withstand. They would leave him weakened and cov- ered with icy perspiration. But not once did he utter a complaint and only his eyes told, after each occurrence, how he had hoped it would be the last, and end his lite with his will power victorious. After the third week the starving man ap- parently suffered littie. Forgetfulness came to his aid and he would lie for long periods in a state of coma, seeing nothing and hearing nothing. For two weeks he alternated between life and death. He would remain uncon- scious for a time and then revive, as strong in mind as ever. Water was all he asked for or would have. Dr. Meisch had consulted a number of brother physicians, but none could suggest & course that might turn Kern from sui- cide. Dr. J. W.. Thompson of the St. Louis City Hospital staff was called into consul- tation and went to see Kern with Dr. Meisch. This was at the end of the 42 days’ fasting for Kern, and he had eclipsed all previous cecords of the kind. The two doctors decided to force food i[n- to the starving man’s stomach, They be- gan to press a rubber tube down his mouth. Kern resisted with what strength he h When he saw that he was overpowered he shrieked like a wild man and the family induced the physicians to desist.

Early last week the family sent for Father Lempke. Kern was told that his pastor wished to see him. Kern understood, but would not allow the holy man to be admitted, saying: ‘Nobody can make me eat.” A day or two later Father Lempke called again and again. Kern declined to see him. The long siege without sustenance had all but killed him by last Tuesday. His body was so light that the daughter, Josephine, who is ‘a slender, unathletic girl, could pick him up and carry him. His bones showed beneath the skin and the veins in his hands and arms, dark almost to a dead black, protruded like ropes, seemingly al- wavs on the point of bursting. His hands were like bird-claws and he was entirely colorless except for the veins. During the fast he had grown a beard, dark brown, thick and stubby, which ac- centuated the ghostly appearance of his face. Thursday night he became unconscious. Josephine remained at his side all night. Friday morning he rallied and opened his eyes, but soon sank again. He continued to breathe until] 5 o'clock, when he passed from unconsciousness to death in his daughter’s arms. “IT cannot understand the case of old man Kern,” said Dr. Meisch to a Post- Dispatch reporter. ‘“‘He fasted absolutely for 45 days, and in the 11 days after that he did not take enough nourishment into his body to sustain a babe. “He had long. been troubled with a stom- ach ailment, and whether that led him to want to starve or not I do not know. He was a good Catholic, and suicides, as you know, are denied the right of burial in consecrated ground. “Tt is certain that he could not be coaxed or driven to eat, although he was per- fectly sane until his death. “At one time I went to extreme measures in an endeavor to save him. ‘“ ‘anton,’ 1 said, ‘you are a big foo) for wanting to~commit suicide. Maybe your wife wants you to die. How do you know?’ I thought that ruse would have some effect on him, but he only snorted: ‘Let me alone’ Anton Kern lived in St. Louts prior to his residence at Ballwin. He came here when a boy from Blenheim, Bavaria, and for 18 years conducted a barber shop on Vine street, near the Levee. In 1876 he moved to Ballwin. His wife is a sister of ex-Sheriff Dosenbach of Clayton and they have been married 33 years. MUST HANG FOR HIS CRIME. E. C. Flanagan, Who Did Murder for a Girl, Found Guilty.

A frightened horse attached to a wagon load of eggs caused all kinds of excitement on North Fourth street Saturday noon.

Miss Annie Allen, 20 years old, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. P. G. Allen of Clifton Heights, is hovering between life and death as the result of a bicycle accident at O’Fal- lon Park Friday night. Her skull is fractured and it is believed she sustained serious internal injuries. Dr. F. D. Wright is in constant attendance up- on the injured woman, who is at the home of her friend, Mrs. Mary Brown, 2106 Obear avenue. The doctor courteously deciined to discuss the case, but intimated that Miss Allen’s recovery is doubtful. ' Friday evening Miss Allen visited her boon companion, Miss Brown, and together they took a spin on their wheels to O'Fal- lon Park. The park was poorly lighted _ the roadways were crowded with cy- clists. The young women laughed and chatted galy as they sped along, wholly unconscious of danger. As they rounded a dark curve they could see in the distance the dim out- line of two bicycles. Miss Allen slackened her speed and started for the opposite side of the rvad. Ags she did so the approach- ing wheelmen bore down upon her machine, and crashed against it with terrific force, hurling the rider several feet in the air. She fell heavily to the ground and was picked up for dead. Neither of the men was hurt by the col- lision. They carried Miss Allen to a bench, where she lay unconscious, without medi- cal attendance for two hours.

William G/ Millford, proprietor of the res- taurant on Sixth street which bears his name, had an exciting time about 7 o’clock Saturday night, as did Miss Josephine Moses, the cashier of the place, as well as several ladies and gentlemen who were din- ing in the restaurant at that time. The cause of the excitement was Edward Matthews, an oyster cook, who was loaded with morphine and a bulldog revolver. The ‘“‘dope’’ was in the oyster execution- er’s brain, and the revolver in his hand, The mugzzie of the weapon was on a hori- zontal line with Mr. Millford’s optics and seemed to have the diameter of a washtub from the restaurauteur’s point of observa- tion, about two feet distant. Miss Moses screamed and fled from the counter-walled space near the entrance, where ghe.and Mr. Milford were when the man with the gun appeared. The lady’s scream attracted the, atten- tion of the diners, and the sight of the weapon caused a rush to the rear end of the restaurant. ; Matthews had resigned from Milford's employ at 1 o’clock in the afternoon. It had been discovered that he was a user of morphine and the finding of a bottle of the drug in Matthews department at the coenerareaes had precipitated his resigna- tion. When h@ walked ‘.* to the counter he told Mr. Milford that he wanted to talk to him. His former employer discovered ere condition and asked him to eave. instead the cook fished out his pistol and threw it down to the astonishment of Mr. Milford. During the confusion that followed Mil- ford sought and gained a reprieve in parley. Matthews kept him cornered for a full minute. Meanwhile every guest in the place had disappeared and white aproned attaches of the restaurant were fiying hither and thither in search of a policeman. Much to Milford’s comfort and peace of mind his ex-cook decided (after speaking some thoughts that he had in his misd that he would not do murder, but iInstea would egommit suicide. Accordingly he pocketed his weapon and left the place, saying thet he was going to his room, at. 1601 Ojllve street, to put into execution his new plan of campaign against human life. The officer, who arrived after all the trouble was over, was given the iculars. He went to Matthews’ room and found the latter deathly eick, and apparently under the influence of some drug. At the Dispensary Matthews told Dr. Voerster that he hed taken two grains of strychnine. e doctor could not tell from the symp- toms what the man had swallowed. An an- tidote for strychnine was administered and Matthews was sent to the City Hospital. “Hamlet Revamped.” “Hamiet revamped" will be played by members of the old McCullough hud the Imperial Theater Friday evening, June 3, under the aneptons of Valley Counc, Royal Arcanum, for the benefit of the sick fund.

I cannot conceive why any one should object to the nude in art. Such art‘is the most beautiful and innocent. I am sure that the girls—Miss McCormick ig a Lieutenant, while Miss Mauer is only a cadet on trial—are not receiving the congratulations of the salvationists in Omaha. The girls could: not have been other than fanatics, for nome other could destroy property of others in such a way. I wish to say through the Sunday Post-Dispatch that the St.Louis. salvationists sympathize very deeply with the. artist and that they cannot conceive the possibility of any one in his right mind doing such a thing. If Misses Mauer » and McCormick were in my division they would be dismissed from the army at once for their conduct.” and lovely, yet obnoxious to her eyes, because of their nudity, fell before its mad descent. Nothing was sacred. Nothing was reserved. Every figure within reach became prey for Miss Mauer’s deadly ax. Legs and arms and heads fell ¢rashing to the court below. Even the trunks of these inanimate objects of an artist’é care were not exempt. Policemen and private watchmen were attracted by the sound of the hacking. They could see the statues falling “M ISSES MAUER and McCormick of the Omaha army could not have been ia their right minds when they de- ‘ j g 6颥 KNEW that I was doing right. It is our duty as salvationists to go into the very depths of hell, if necessary, to save souls. We go into the dives of cities to raise the sinner out of the mire. Never in any place have I seen so disgraceful as those statues, even in Chicago, where’I lived. It was not for myself, but for thousands of young people that I decided to destroy the statues.

She concluded the services. After doing -so she returned to the barracks and later repaired to her home, as was her custom. But she could not sleep. All night long she thought of the matter. Jyust before dawn, it seemed to her, the spirit of God appeared to her and commanded her to destroy that which seemed objectionable in her eyes. Still she prayed about the matter, as if halting between natural inclination and expressed duty. Again she seemed to hear the command which was to send her forth to destroy. Monday morning she took counsel with her friend, Helen McCormick, a lieutenant in the Salvation Army. What would they do? What would be right for them to do? Would they obey what seemed to be the word of God, at the same time transgressing the laws of man? It was a question of duty. It: did not take them long to decide. Whatever might be the earthly consequences, they would obey the command of their Master. During Monday no favorable opportunity presented itself. Hundreds of men were at work on the Exposition grounds, and there were many visitors. It was evident that they would have to wait. Monday night they did nothing. The 24 hours through which Miss Mauer had passed had been sleepless. She was iIl at ease—not because of physical discomfort, but because of her inability to accomplish at once that upon which she was determined. Another such night must not pass. To permit such a lapse would be to confess herself a weakling. Early Tuesday morning she again took counsel with Lieut. McCormick. They visited the Exposition grounds together. They did not enter. From the outside they could see as much as they desired, and more. Not only was the Fine Arts bullding studded with nude fizures—they were all around. The management had con- spired, it appeared to them, to see how many such pieces of statuary they could crowd into a limited space. Aj | Oven at that moment Mr. Bringhurst nee . - “p.*, Ay f. and far above, in the dim ‘moonlight, they could distinguish the form of &@ woman. With terrible earnestness they kept calling to the vengeful unknown to come down that they might arrest her. But she refused to move. She still kept hacking away at the precious ornaments. Late as it was, a frenzied mob gathered in the plaza below, horrified at the sight of such ruthless destruction. They could not see distinctly, nor could they imagine whet strange phantom was that above. They only knew that mad havoc was being wrought among work for which the Exposition management had paid heavily, and of which they were all proud. , Finally there was nothing left within Miss Mauer’s reach. Every unvetled Cupid, every figure of a nude woman, had been destroyed. There was nothing left for her to do but descend. This she did. And it was well, for at any time the frail cornice was liable to give way and precipitate her to the paved court, fifty feet below. When she came down she was promptly arrested.

BIEG of St. Louis is Chief Engi- neer of the form'dable ram Katahdin, the only véssel of her kind in the United ®tates Navy. She is now at Provincetown, Mass., on Cape Cod. Her duty is to help protect the New England coast from inva- gion—to am holes in the sides of hostile fronclads, And she is expected to do this just as easily as the big rams of Civil War times disposed of ships with wooden hulls. Lieut. Bieg, who was born in St. Lou's, was appointed by competitive examination @s a cadet to the Naval Academy at Annap- Olis in 1874. He was the first officer to represent Mis- aouri in the Engineering Department of the United States Navy. He was graduated in 1878. He became en Assistant’ Engineer in 1889 and a Passed Assistant Engineer ten years later. He ranks as Lieutenant. His last crulse was on the gunboat Charleston, which took part in the naval demonstration made by Admiral Benham against the rebels off Rio Janeiro in 1893, during the revolution in Brazil. Later he served on the coast defense ves- gel Monterey. Befgre war was declared he was ordered to his present duty as chief engineer of the ram Kathadin. On a ram everything depends on the en- gineer. The fate of the men and the vessel Festa with him. The battle is in his hands. The position of the chief engineer of a ram in battle is both trying and hazardous, He is shut in from the outside world, Buried*in a massive iron hull, 15 feet under water, he cannot even see the sky. The only knowledge he has of the battle raging above him is signaled to him by the captain from the conning tower. He hears the mighty crash of bursting shells and feels the terrible impact against the steel huil, but that is all, Whether the enemy flies or his country’s arms are victorious he knows not. When the order comes the puts the mag- nificent machinery of his vessel in motion and charges with all his might upon the ghips of his country’s foes. When the ram’s steel prow strikes the dron sides of a hostile ship he feels the terrific shock, but remains in ignorance of the damage he has been able to inflict until] the eaptain signals the news from above and gives him orders to advance again or retreat. He is like a man fighting in the dark, gave that he knows his own strength and the weakness of the enemy from deep study and careful observation. Like a soldier, he fights by order, but his deeds are more effective than those of a thousand armed men. He knows exactly how, when and where to strike to the best advantage.

TET he: CROSS SECTION AND DECK VIEW OF THE UNITED stroy property worth millions and send hundreds of men to the bottom of the sea. But his own life is in continual peril. The shock of the impact against another vessel may kill him. Think of ramming the prow of the Katah- din against the ‘hull of an ironclad with sufficient force to crack her hull and sink her! It were like hurling 10,060 tons of steel by superhuman power against the side of an Egyptian pyramid. That any human being could withstand such a shock seems impossible. It looks as though the delicately adjusted machinery would be rent into myriads of fragments. These are some of the 4ifficuities and dangers Lieut. Bieg will be called upon to undergo when the Katahdin is summoned into battle. He must needs be brave. But he must also be a student and a master of mech- anism. He must be on as familiar terms with the two great propelling engines of the ram as a mother is with her children. But there are other Missourlans connected with the navy as engineer officers. Passed Assistant Engineer G. A. Salis- bury, who entered the Naval Academy in 1874, is now chief engineer of the gunboat Annapolis, G. W.: Danforth of the _ distinguished Southeast Missouri family of Danforths was appointed to the Naval Academy in 1885, and has already attained the rank of Passed Assistant Engineer. Assistant Engineer John R. Morris, ap- pointed in 1889, was on the Maine when she was blown up in Havana harbor, but es- caped with his life. James P, Morton, who became a cadet in 1891, now ranks as Assistant Engineer. A still more rapid rise was made by Gate- wood §. Lincoln, who entered the Naval Academy in 1892. He was made an aasistant engineer only a few weeks ago. Naval Cadet John ‘A. Schofield, appointed in 1894, was graduated from Annapolis in Apr‘l, 1898. Such men as these hag the State of Mis- eouri furnished to the United States Navy for the protection of our interests, for the enforcement and preservation of peace, Of them Capt. Bieg is chief. He was.the first to represent this State in the Engi- neering Department, His compatriots in the service—Salisbury, Danforth, (Morris, Morton, Lincoln and S§Schofleli—all have done well, and their manly service reflects honor upon the name of St. Louis and Missouri, The Katahdin belongs to the Northern “Patrol squadron, designed for the defense of the New England coast in case of war. She is a most fermidable vessel, and it is ex- pected that she will be able te accompli:h feats which were not dreamed of by naval constructors in the days of the old rams Tennessee, Virginia and Merrimac. Her peculiar construction makes her even more terrible than so many tons of solid steel. Her mighty weight, hurled against the side of an tronclad by the force of powerful engines, will be irresistible. She will be able to sink a warship as effectually as a well directed shot from a coast defense gun or a battleship or the stealthy torpedo. The contract for the. Kitahdin wags let to the Bath Iron Works of Bath, Me., Jan. 28, 1891. The price was $930,000, iy LIEUT. F. C: BIEG. She was launched Feb. 4, 1893. The speed demanded by the Navy Depart- ment was 17 Knots an hour, or 13.55 geo- graphical miles. She made her trial trip Oct. 31. The speed attained was only 1.1146 knots, but her construction was so perfect that it was considered advisable to accept her, es- pecially as she was the first vessel of her kind ever built and no certain standard could be set up arbitrarily as to her capa- bilities. if i oe 4 OF WHICH HE:IS NOW W THE CHIE ENGINEER—THE FORMIDABLE > ” “Ws. f+ fie aut peal as THE ONLY VESSEL OF HER KIND IN THE NAVY. The Katahdin was based on the designs of Rear Admiral Daniel Ammen, U. 8, N. The vessel is constructed entirely of mild steel and is designed upon the longitudinal and bracket system, with an inner bottom extending from the collision bulkhead to the stern. The duty of a ram in battle is both to destroy and protect. In the arrangement of a squadron or fleet she would be classed with torpedo boats and torpedo boat destroyers. She would not rush into battle along with the big ships, or even with the cruisers, but would take an advantageous position out- side of the line, where she could watch the operations and be prepared to move at a moment's notice. Should a foreign warship bear down in battle on one of our big fighters, or should a combination of them bear down with their murderous fire, the duty of the Katahdin would be to rush in and ram her terrible steel prow into the sides of one or more of them, in an endeavor to sink them. She is so constructed that nothing less than the concentrated effective fire of three or four first-class battleshfps could sink er. oo is divided into 102 water-tight com- pariments. Were her hull eracked so as to let the water into one or two of them, it would make no great difference, but it would be possible for an enemy’s fleet, by. concerted action, to destroy enough of her hull to send her to the bottom, All of the Katahdin's armor is of nickel steel. The outside strake or layer of the deck armor its six inches thick. The next strake inboard tapers in thickness in breadth from 5% inches to 2% inches. The remainder of the deck plating is 2% inches in thickness, including the lower course of plating. The side armor is two strakes in depth, the upper being six inches and the lower three inches thick, secured by bolts with counter-sunk heads driven from the out- side through wood backing of yellow pine, and two backing pla'ttes, each 20 pounds per équare foot, and set "v with nuts on rub- ber washers. All hatches thseush the armored deck have battle plates. Smoke pipe and ven- tilators have inclined armor six inches thick, The longitudinals and girders supporting the deck are continuous, converging to tho stem casting and to the stern, the frames and beams being intercostal. The depth of longitudinals and vertical keel throughout their length is 24 inches and of the girders supporting the armored deck 15 inches. The conning tower ts 18 inches thick. She is fitted with four 6-pounder rapid firing guns, two forward and two aft, in the coaming around the hatches, for usé@ against torpedo boat attacks. The vessel js provided with a removal wrought steel ramhead, accurately fitted and securely held in position in the cast steel s'em. The oniy projections above the armor - deck are the conning towers, smoke pipes and ventilators, hatch coamings, and skid beams upon which the boats are supported and a light mast for signaling purposes. Her displacement is 2155 tons, The ex- treme length is 251 feet; beam, 43 feet 5 inches. Coal bunker capacity, 286.88 tons, Normal draught, 15 feet. The engines are placed in water-tight compartments, separated by a bulkhead Bt des aw DURING A BATTLE HE 18 BURIED UNDER THE SEA, running across the ship. Into this is fitted @ water-tight door. The forward engine turns the port pre peller; the after one, the starboard. They are of the horizontal, direct acting, triple expansion type, each with three cyl- inders. They were designed for a collective indicated horse-power propelling air pump and circulating engines of 4800, with about 150 revolutions a minute. The high pressure cylinder of. the after or starboard engine is forward, and is ss on the forward or port engine. The main valves are of cast fron of tne piston type and work by Marshall valve gear, there being one valve for each high and intermediate cylinder and two for each low pressure cylinder. The valve gear, exe cept rock shafts, in interqhangeable, and is so adjusted that the mean cut-off In full gear for both ends of each cylinder is at .f stroke. The reversing gear consists of the usual steam cylinder and a hydrauile cylinder, the piston rods of both fitted to the same crosshead, the ends of the hydraulic cylinder connected with a by-pass worked from the stem of the steam starting valves, These valves receive their primary power from a hand lever at the starting platform and are stopped by a system of levers re. ceiving: motion from a pin on the arm, the parts being so adjusted in this system that the reversing engine follows the motion of the hand lever, and when stopped is firmly held by the a cylinder. » There is also a emall hydraulic pump for reversing by hand. All the crank, line, thrust and propeller shafts are forged eteel, The screw propellers are three-biad@ed, of manganese bronze. The starboard pro- peller is right-handed and the port lett handed.

INTERNATIONAL L BLOCKADE such as that by which Cuba is cut off from the outside world is one of the most ordinary -means resorted to by a belligerent to injure and weaken an enemy. It consists in the investment of the ports of the enemy, or of his whole coast, by a naval force etrong enough to prevent all ingress or egress. Blockades, however, ere not arbitrary acts ef power, but are established and main- tained by a regular and ‘well-defined pro- ceeding resting upon the principles of inter- mational law. these whose subject suffers from a departure from ‘A belligerent must observe rules, and Aa neutral nation or violation of them will take up the cause and obtain redress either by diplomatic action or in the last resort by war—though this last has never been found necessary. The essentials of a blockade as laid down by the authorities on the law are: L It must be duly instituted. 8. It must be notified to neutrals. 8. It must be effective. The first rule merely signifies that there ust be an actual force before the port of he enemy charged with the duty of pre- wenting all communication with the outside wrorid, <A neutral has the right to disre- ward a “paper blockade” like those pretend- ed to be instituted by Napoleon in his M lan and Berlin decrees, and by the British Gov- ernment in retaliation upon the French em- peror’s absurd fulminations. These “paper blockades”’ were never really instituted. The British declared the whcle coast of conti!- nental Europe under blockade, and ° Na- poleon pretended that he could shut up the British Isles by his mere fiat. Neither had @ naval force at the ports of the other. There was in fact no blockade, but both governments used their prochimat ons of the lie as a pretext and ground of legal right to capture and confiscate neutral merchant ships wherever they might be found, no matter how far from the French or En- glish ports to which they y -re bound. The United States béing about the only neutral nation in the world at thai time, all the other nations being engaged on one side or the other in the great Napoleonic conflict, were the principal sufferers. They com- plained bitterly to both.the French Emperor and the British Government, but their re- mongstrances were at the time unheeded. Since that time, however, the principles so ardently contended for by ‘American public men have been un!versally recognized and are now well settled principles of inter- national usage. No power would dare fly in the face of civilized opinion»by procla!m- W GOQVEKNING BLOCKADIN ing and acting upon a blockatle which is nut instituted by an actual naval force. The second of these essential ryles {fs dic- tated by common gehen, qa wen : as natural justice. Notification of bl ockade fhust be mide di- rectly to the governments of neutral pow-_ ers, as in the case of the Cuban blockade instituted in the present war with Spain. The prize courts will presume that the mas- ter of a neutral mérchant ship has knowl- edge of the blockade if his government has been notified and he w!ll not be permitted to plead ignorance of the fact, nor will his own government Interfere to save his ship and cargo should he be captured in an unlawful attempt to land at the enemy’s port. If the blockade exists and notice has been given he is supposed to know it. But ff, through negligence of the authorities of his own government or any other cause he is really tignorant of the fact, he may, of 8 wh have recourse to his own goverpD- ment and ask them for compensation. If he is already on hig way before notice is given, and appears off the blockaded port, he has the right to plead ignorance, and when warned off must leave at once. If he does not go he is liable to capture. Neutral ships must not place themselves in the vicinity of a blockaded port, They must keep their distance or be Hable to cap- ture, and once before the prize courts they will find it hard to prove that they were innocent, for it is almost a presumption of the law that the neutral, if found on the in- terdicted waters, goes there with the in- tention to break the blockade; and it would require very clear and satisfactory evidence to repel the prezumption of criminal intent. Lastly, though neutral governments must be notified, knowledge of a recently estab- lished blockade may be inferred from facts. The burden of proving ignorance is always upon the neutral shipenaster. The third rule of blockade, that it must be effective, has been the subject of muca diplomatic wrangling, for upon it hinges the recognition of the blockade by the neutral governments. It was the especial work of the United States to obtain the es- tablishment of the rule by persuasion and threats, but since the Declaration of Paris in 1856 it has been held a well settled prin- ciple of the law. The rule requires that there shall be actually a sufficient number of vessels at or near enough the port to make entry clearly dangerous. One or two scouting vessels ranging up and down the coast is not enough. The blockade must be a patent obtrusive fact, Which a neutral cannot fail to see and understand, The jargest blockade the world ever saw was that instituted by President Lincoln during our civil war, when the whole coast from the Chesapeake to the Rio Grande was successfully shut up, and all foreign powers recognized it as effeetive and binding. One pf the most glaring violations of this rule was by Spain in her war against the Ven- ezuelans, when the latter Were in revolt against the mother country; The Spanish commanders proclaimed a blockade of the whole coast, more than 1200 miles, and to maintain it employed one frigate, a brig and a schooner. American ship captains rightly ignored the absurd blockade, and Mr. Adams, then Secretary of State, de- nounced it in unmeasured terms in dis- patches to the Spanish Government. Nev- ertheless, American commerce suffered enormous losses, for which no compensation Was ever obtained. But the effectiveness of a blockade is not impaired by the occasional absence of the blockading squadron, produced by acci- dent, as in the case of a storm. A neutral] knowing the cause must not take advant- age of such a suspension, and is liable to capture if he tries to enter the block- aded port. But when a part of the blockad- ing squadron is withdrawn for operation elsewhere, so as to leave the blockade in- G PORTS IN WAR. effective, It immediately becomes ineffect- ive and cannot be renewed except by Tre- institution and notice de novo. Mr. Sew- ard, Secretary of State, well expressed this principle in a note to Lord Lyons, the British Minister. in 1861: ‘*Temporary fortuitous absence of a blockading force,” said he, “by which occasional blockade run- ners slip in, does.not of itself break up the blockade.” A fourth rule may be added to the three explained above. It is that “obstructions may be temporarily placed in channels of access."’; This may be exemplified in the blockade of Santiago de Cuba to prevent supplies for Cervera being shipped into that port, This means of blockade’ was re- sorted to by the Dutch in their war with Spain in the time of Philip II., by England when attacked by the Dutch in the time of Charles II. by the United States during the Revolutionary war and in the war of 1812: by Russia during the siege of Sebastopol and by Germany during the war of 1870. Dur- ing our civil war the United States Govern- ment sunk some ships laden with stone in a channel of Charleston harbor. Lord John Russe!, the English foreign Secretary, re- monstrated and no more guch obstructions were sunk. But the right to sink them was not yielded, and would probably be recog- nized by all governments at the present time. A fioutral vessel in harbor at the time e blockade is instituted may take away «@ cargo bona fide purchased and delivered be- fore the commencement of the dDlockade; [ft she afterwards takes on a cargo it is fraudu- lent and a violation of the blockade. It is generally held that sailing for @ blockaded port, knowing it to be blockaded, is in itself an attempt to break it, an act sufficient to charge the party with a breaeh of the blockade, so that the vessel may be captured anywhere between the port of de- parture and the port of destination. They may be relaxed, however, in case of long voyages, The vessel is allowed to sail on a contingent destination for a blockaded port, but must make inquiry at suitable places concerning the status of the blockade be- fore going near the port. The consequences of a breach of blockade is the confiscation of the ship. The cargo ls prima facie implicated in the guilt of the shipowner, but if it can be shown thatthe owner of the cargo could not have known of the blockade it is restored to him. The condemnation of captured vessel must be pronounced by a prize court of the gove ernment of the captor.

The Canned Meat Industry, the Perfection of Raifroad Management ‘and Other: Conveniences Wilf Make the Lot of a Soldier Much OLDIERS in the field will have no cause to complain of the quantity or quality of food. Uncle Sam, through ® @gents, has looked after both of tinese t matters, and the soldier who goes forth to fight for the preservation of his ountry’s honor will face the enemy with etomach, He will fare better than did the soldier tél. The articles included in the bill vf will be more varied and of better qual- ty. Hard tack, the army bean and other familiar staples, will still be largely in evi- ce, but they will be supplemented by @rticles more toothsome. The Commissary Department of the Unit- Gtates Army is now on a thorough jbusiness basis. The officers know where jevery ounce of rations goes and they will ‘bring up with a sharp turn any individual or corporation which attempts to defraud the Government or compel its defenders to bungry. |. According to the list sent out from Wash- ' ¢ngton the soldiers’ fieki rations are daily _@s follows: | Ome pound of hard tack or 18 ounces of ‘oft (baker's) bread, Three-fourths pounds of bacon. The same Quantity of fresh meat will be substituted ‘whenever it can be obtained, Beven-tenths pounds ef potatoes and 3 pounds of canned tomatoes. The latter come in 6%, 2% and Ii-pound cans. . Whree-twenticths pounda of dry (navy) beans. cua ana three-fifihe ounces of coffee "ue Ant se-aihe une of wan. Casier Than Ever Before, Sixteen-twenty-fifths ounces of salt (4 pounds per 100 rations). One-twenty-fifth ounce of black pepper. S:xteen-twenty-fifths ounces of soap. Six-twenty-fifths ounces of candles, 1% pounds, 9.candles, per 100 rations. One gallon of vinegar per 100 rations. These will be issued dally and will be Supposed to last the men 24 hours. On forced marches, raids into the enemy's country and rapid retrzais the old army foraging system wil! be relied upon to satis- fy the men’s hunger. Indiscriminate foraging !s not permitted by the regulations, but where the need is great officers conveniently ghut one eye, no: to open ‘t again until a portion of the p.ua- der finds ite way into their meas. * The veteran will recognize in the list of eatables furnished to the soldiers of ‘98 many of the articles included in the ra- tions of ‘él. Potatoes then were not on the regular list, but they came occasionally. Tomatoes Were not known in the Civil War commis- sary, but were caught on forages. Rice, then wae a staple article of food, It js left out of the list furnished the soldiers now at Chickamauga Park, but will be issued in the fleld. Another old army deMNoacy that seems to have been forgotten ‘a the deasicated veget- able cake, from which “calleo" soup was made. The @ghters in the Civil 'War stood bravely by thie. and expreas surprise that #0 Wholesome an article of food has been left out of the soldbep’s bill of fare. The goldier of the present need have no fear of the “parched corn’ diet, " the memory of which {s so painful to the Civil War veteran. Many a brave fighter, while marching through devastated por- tlons of the South, subsisted for days at a time on mmihing but parched corn. It was almost unendurable, but raliroad tracks were torn to pleces and it wag im- possible for the Government to aid thee speedily, . This betng a foreign war, no such dif- ficulties will be encountered. Even if great numbers of troops are sent to Cuba and the Philippine Islands, it should be an easy matter to supply them with .an abundance ef food by means of ocean transports properly guarded. In the matter of meats the army of to- day is particularly fortunate. The meat canning industry, which has reached such proportions and stch perfection, makes it possible to store and transport a wonder- ful amoynt of provigions in a comparative- ly small space. Besides this, the meat is well preserved, always fresh and palatable and easy to serve. The Government has already or- dered from the great packing houses of the country 56,000,000 pounds of meat for the army, including bacon—1,000,000 pounds ~—barrel beef, canned roast beef. sausage, cooked corned beef, potted ham and roast mutton. These are staples of which the soldier of ‘61 never dreamed. Altogether, the army of the United States to-day is the best-fed body of fight- ers in the world. Modern methods of food production, as weil as modern invention, HAT gigantic would efiter the doenain of the world’s politics should the mooted alliance between Great Britain and the United States become an accomplished fact! With Spain, bined against this great union of the Anglo- Saxon race the latter would have a pre- ponderance in the world which would prac- tically render war impossible and give an incaiculable impetus to all the machinery of modern civilisation. . It ig not believed that Russia will de- part, at this juncture, from’ her tradi- tional friendship toward the United States. But since the gossips of Europe have con- nected her with the reported Franco-Span- ish scheme it is as well to face the possi- bility that Russia is preparing to change her attitude toward this country. The territory controlied by an Anglio- American alliance: at its start would be 15,040,400 square miles, or 6,000,000 square miles more than one-third of all the land of the globe. The “population of this territory is 48,- 634,000, 300,000,000 more than one-third of the &'obe's total inhabitants. The total wealth of the ailiance, exclu- possibilities France and Russia com- have done much te revolutionize the con- dition of warfare, sive of India, would be over $125,950,000,000. sie 20 6k cee Meeien ot-te a0 past history of the world, and yet if the wealth of India could be estimated and added the sum would probably be more than doubled. The number of miles of operative rail- way. is 258,246, not to speak of 16,000 miles of steam and electric railways in operation in United States cities alone, enough to encircle the globe several times. The proposal of the United States to spend a billion dollars on the enlargement and perfeetion of its navy would add an- other great asset to the alliance, and the completion by England of the railroad through ‘Africa, from Egypt to Cape Town, would contribute a Iink to the chain of em- pire of untold value and significance. As matters now stand, the Anglo-Amer- ican alliance could readily dictate tefms to the rest of the world, and with these addi- tions and extensions it would be able to make itself the arbiter of the destinies of rations. | The annual revengeof the Anglo-Amer'i- can alliance would r h the sum of $1,717,- 745,000. A faint conception of the sum ce be learned from the fact that it would pur- chase 42,944,000,00 loaves of bread, a quan- tity of food which would keep New York's three million inhabitants from starving for @ period of over 14,815,00000) days, or %9,(0),- the Globe Several Times: 000 years, with a fresh loaf of bread for every man, woman and child every twenty- four hours. This does not take into consid- eration the revenues to be der.ved from the Philippines, Cuba and Porto Ricd and Ha- wali it they were annexed to the United States. The tonnnage of the mesvhant ships of the alliance would be 144,775,000 tons, which is an amount equal to the combined weight of all the inhabitants of the Rursian Em- pire, with those of France, the Netheriands, Exypt, Italy, Spain, Brazil, Portugal, Sweden and Norway, Belgium, @wltzerland, Greece, Denmark and Venezuela, allowing the average weight of men, Women and children to be figured at 160 pounds. The total value of the imports for one year into the territory of the alliance would be $4,170,400,.00. This sum if converted into one-doluar bills and laid end to end would form a line of greenbacks over 666,465 miles in length, or sufficient to encircle the earth over 2 times. The total exports of the Anglo-American alliance would be over $3,673.454,409, not in- cluding anything exported from Cuba, Por- to Rico, Hawati or the Philippines, The total indebtedness of the alliance would amount to $7,364,50),000, or only one- ninth of all the indebtedness of every coun- try in the world computed jn lump sum, and which in 1898 amounts to §27,400,000,00, No other pation existing to-day could ap- proach any of the figures of es oval Armrican ee except in potas. of SOME OF THE GIGANTIC POSSIBILITIES OF A POLITICAL ALLIANCE BETWEEN THE UNITED STATES AND ENGLAND.

He Mved with her for 13 years. Three others died within ea year of the time he married the first. Stfll another died within three hours af- ter the ceremony was performed. He was first married at the age of 15 years. Four of his wtves were named Mary. He cannot rea4, and can write nothing except his own name, For 10 years he has been employed es an fron molder at the Tudor Iron Works, in East St. Louts. He lives in a three-room shanty on the banks of Cahokia Creek with his numerous progeny. Mr. Belleville ts now 87 years of age. He was born in St. Louis in 141. He wae very precocious in love effairs, and at the age of 15 years had formed a violent attach- ment for Adeline Lungstrom, who was quite as youthful as himself. His father, perceiving the boy’s armor, at- tempted to check it by threatening to have him sent to the House of Refuge, but Alex- ander’s mother wae on his side and helped him to secure a lHcenee. “And so they were married.” But they did not “live happily ever af- terward.”” Inside of two years the girl died of consumption and the youthful husband was left with a baby girl on his hands. Then his troubles came thick and fast Mr. Belleville recounted them yesterday with many tears. His grief as he men- tioned each recurring death seemed to in- crease in poignancy and by the time he reached the seventh and last he was almost in a state of collapse Alternately he wept and laughed hys- terically. The seven burdens of grief which he had been called upon to beer seemed al- most too much for his slight constitution, Speaking of the death of his first wife, he eaid: “As I had a child to care for I needed a wife. In ea few months I commenced to court Mary Stanley. We were married by Father Holland in ®t. Patrick’s Church in East St. Louis. ‘“‘Mary was a fine, buxom girl and I never thought I would bury her 11 months later. But such was the case. She died of child- birth. The baby was a boy. “By this time I had two children, I was only 18 years old. I couldn't leave them in a boarding house, so I determined to hunt me up another wife to be a mother to my children. “After living single and taking care of my children the best I could for 16 months I fell in love with Susie Eno, ean Indian girl, who was born in Indian Territory, but was then living in East St. Louls. “She was a big, fine looking woman, with black hair and eyes and brows as straight as arrows. ‘We were married by a justice of the peace. She lived 18 years—from 1861 to 1874— and we were very happy. “She gave me seven children, all just as fine looking as she was, and all but three of them have died. She was teken sick one day with typhoid pneumonia and never left her bed again, “Well, I was just that heartbroken that T= seventh wife of Alexander Belle- IS THE FATHER OF THIRTEEN CHILDREN.

Consider that this young man —not yet 34—has achieved from nothing a fortune far greater than a multitude of suc- cesses in business and professional life make even in a half century of unflagging industry and careful economy.

His hands and stoop shoulders tell the hard manual labor they have done.

H. Louis, who has a lease on the 4 acres of land on which the big hiil ds located. A corps of experienced geologists and é@xcavators will be put to work soon. Col. G. E. Leighton will subscribe $1000 to aid the project. Learned men from all parts of the coun- try have become interested in this remark- able find. The geolog'sts of the New York Academy of Science are particularly eager for further information Mr. Beehler has placed several specimens of these fossilized remains on exhibition at the office of W. B. Swann, fh the Roe build- ing, St. Lou's, where they may be seen by ealiers. He will endeavor to secure a place for an exhibit at the Omaha Exposition, These bones are held to prove that pre- historic man existed contemporaneously with the great prehistoric animals familiar to science, The discoverics made are expected to rev- olutionige the theories held by paleontolo- gists relative to the'r co-existence. Men of science have always contended that the mastodonic age antedated the ap- pearance of human beings. They will now have to recast their theo- gies or discount the conclusions, based on the finding of the bones of both together, that a primitive order of people existed contemporaneously. The quarry of antiquities {s a limestone bluff, about 50 feet above the level of the Mississippi River, a mile and a half west of Kimmswick. The country is hilly, sterile and pic- duresque. Eminent geologists claim that it Was originally inundated by 4 vasi inland a. Y Pné hill is owned by Fred Miller, an old German farmer, who takes no particuiar interest in paleontology. The remains of huge beasts are thickiy @eposited in the mud and blue clay. In 1885 Dr. Koch exhumed from the btuff the finest mastodon skeleton ih the wor-d. --3t ts now in the British Museum at Lon- don, exhibited as tlie Missouri! Leviathan, Beientists from all over the world have written about it. From that time up to last fall no exca- vating had been done. Occasionally u queer looking bone or a piece of pottery or a crude tool was turned up by the plow share, only to be thrown aside as the worthless debris of another age. The present exploration is being conduct- €d by C. H, Beehler of St. Louls. He Is @n old prospector and geologist and has traveled all over the country in search of @re and coal mines, He refused to sub-lease which the mound is located for {$300 a month. Aff offer of that amount was made by Prof. O. C. Farrington of the Field Columbian Museum of Chicago. Mr. Beehler has always believed that In the bluff at Kimmswick were buried priée- less scientific secrets, and it has been his constant desire that the culminating work of his life might be the wresting from thd @arth the records of the past which it had 60 long held fast. Last fall he got his affairs in such shape that he could spend an indefinite period at the important work. : He went to Kimmswick and leased the hill, comprising about 40 acres, from the astonished German farmer, who had never @xpected to make anything off of the land, which he counted as worthless. the land on 4 ns SR a0 oS Sic ae een ee ee ee 3 z OWS Th 4 a Sr Sel o , oii ie fois a ‘ ™ - te 5 a ee Te Bi ss sade ” » . - a ‘deen Siri th eh eee te % oS GOR RS Tet Are . e- ‘ AER Pk sts OST. «Aca oe ie Dee cose ae. tee a Ses Beige sn ener RA) ee a REA aN ds: ke Reet Name Se Saale eee it 2 Ate ae, ae ‘iin > Ribs ee . uF ee SSSI, ep a, Ty ee PO eR SHER a?

M) STREAMS 6 Of ul —— ee ATHAN JPWETT has made a dis. covery and has a plan. His dis- @overy is that twe swbterranean Pivers flow through the Mississippi Valley from the Great Lakes to the Gulf. His h is to utilize one of them to drajn the issisaippi River and prevent overfiow. He suggests a system of huge waste Pipes to carry the surplus of surface wa- fer down to one of the underground Streams, to be carried off to the Gulf. The bane of the Lower Mississippi Valley ~ has been the periodical overfiow of the river. Millions of dollars have been spent on to prove the system next to Mr, Jewttt has satisfied himself fests of the practicability of his plan to ent overfiows by drainage into the un- pund river, and says it can be done r half the cost of maint aining an ineffec- l levee system. fi ‘J Te would prevent overfiows on the same “@imple plan as overflows are prevented {tn th tubs and fountains—waste pipes to of the water after it reaches a certain t Under the bed of the Mississipp! is a layer pipe clay.

Mr. Jewett would huge iron piper two yards in diameter charge. } Mr. Jewett is @ borer ef artesian wells, holes would be drilled to let the water in and out, The holes In the upper ends of the pipes would be 10 feet above low water qark. When the river would reach this height on its periodical rampage, according to Mr. Jewett's theory, the additional rise wouid be “taken up” by the pipes and carried off through the underground river. The river could then no more rise above the ten-foot mark than the water in a bath tub can rise above the waste pipe outlet. The water from the strata of coarse sand and gravel rises “of its own weight” to- ward the rface, but the pressure of the water pouring down through the big pipes would force it back to its natural course, Mr. Jewett has demonstrated by expert- ments that not only will the natural mse in the pipes be overcome, but that the un- derground river will carry off all of the water which can be delivered to it. He has experimented by having a large volume of water pumped into artesian wells. In each instance, he says, the wells carried away all the water which could be pumped into them. Mr. Jewett ears the pipes could be sunk at half the cost incurred in building levees, If the idea is taken up he offers to devote a year to the work free of Q STRAINER <= el COARSE GRAVEL Jen Pr.

He has demon- strated his own satisfaction realities more strange than the fancies of the ro- mancist. In the State of M'esissipp!, where he has made his observations, there are three Mis- sissippi rivers flowing through the Missis- sippi Valley instead of one. First ts the surface river. Less than a hundred feet below that is the first subterranean river, twice as largé as the surface river, and less than a hundred feet below that ie a third river of unknown size. Both of the subterranean streams prob- ably flow under St. Louls, although at greater depth than further down the val- eG Mr Jewett believes the underground stream nearest the surface carries twice as great a volume of water to the Guif as reaches it through the visible means of outlet. Mr. Jewett lives in Chicago. For 18 months he has been itn the Miselasipp! Delta, borjng wells for planters in that section, He bored 17 wells tn Hards, Scott and Tallahatchie Counties, Miss. It was while thus engaged that he be- came convinced of the existence of the tivera, re ne ak IMLS E 2 Legh, —_ He knows there are strata of gravel and gand sufficiently porous to carry the streams. He has been able to obtain a very strong, constant flow of water from two distinct depths. He claims the flow in the upper stream is so strong that the rushing waters can be distinctly heard swirling around the pipes sunk through them to the lower stream. In all but one of the 17 wells sunk within a year and a half the stratification has been found to be substantially the same. The surface soll ranges from & to D feet in depth. Underneath this is found a layer of fine sand from 15 to 70 feet in thickness. Under this Is a layer of pipe clay from 4 to 3% feet in thickness. Then comes the layer of coarse sand and gravel, varying in thickness from % to 8 feet. Water is always struck in thie layer. The water often rises naturally to within 15 feet of the surface. It is impure and ts not allowed to enter the wells. As the drill proceeds downward it passes through 50 to 8 feet of white sand. There are thin layers of sand rock and flint rock then comes green sand, thro which thebsecond stream, of crystal c and chemically pure, flows.

On the south bank of the Missouri River, near the old Chauvenier road, beyond Florissant, there is a most beautiful summer camping ground where the priests of the Jesuit Farm at the ancient city of St. Ferdinand are wont to enjoy their annual ‘“‘re- treat.’”’ Sacred oratories have been carved and burned in the massive trunks of some of the larger trees, and here and there through the thick woods surrounding the retreat, may be found a quaint old prie-dieu hewn out of rough logs, curiously carved and dec- orated. Years ago, when the retreat was first established at this point, the villegers from the old city of St. Ferdinand and the vicinity would drive or ride to this open alr cathedral to celebrate their especially grand and important marriages. Of course these weddings would only take place when thé camp was not being used by the Jesuits.

Then will follow the bridesmaids, walking two and two, and finally, the fair bride herself. with her uncle, Mr. George Loker. There will be no groomemen, The bridesmaids, Misses Marie von Phul, “Dot” O'Neil, Mar- jan Desloges, Emma Loker and Odille Fusz are five of the prettiest and most attrac- tive girls in St. Louls. They will all be gowned alike in white organdie over pale green silk the skirts covered with narrow lace-edged ruffies and the waists made with unlined yokes and sleeves of tucked organdie and lace insertion. Their sashes and col- lars will be of waite ribbon, piped in lettuce green and their hats will be of white satin straw, trimmed with green and white flowers and illusion. Another pretty nov- elty about their costumes is that each bridemaid will carry a white chiffon parasol, with handle and stem wreathed in pink sweet peas and smilax. The bride’s gown of superb white satin merveillieux lined with rose-pink silk, is of special interest because of the rich old lace which trims it so elaborately. On the waist, which is made with unlined yoke and sleeves of point d’Alencon, are frills of thread lace worn at the Peace Ball after the Declaration of Independence, by Miss The skirt, with ita long court train, Loker’s preht Greet grancanemer Isabel Hubbel. is draped in the costly lace wedding veil worn years ago by the bride’s mother.

Man bite is worse than dog bite. “I would rather be bitten by a dog than by a man any time,”’ said Dr. Kearney, “I have seen hundreds of cases of man bite, and I never knew of one in which blood poisoning did not follow.

MOELLER of East 8t. |) Louis: ‘People cannot be cautioned too early nor too often about the use of proper food and the proper use of food for children, es- pecially at this season of the year. “The death rate among children is greatest among those under 1 year of age. That is due almost entirely to the carelessness of parents in overfeeding or the use of tmproper foods. The infant's stomach {s not capable of taking care as the adult’s digestive organs. It is undeveloped. The secretions are not there to digest the food properly. Fermentation goes on, causing foul gases to develop. Then diarrhea, dysentery—more commonly called ‘summer com- plaint'—sets in, and the first thing the parent knows the little one is prepared for burial. “This could be easily avoided in a largo ma- jority of cases by a knowledge of the fact that infants, until they are 1 or 2 years of age, should have a simple diet, consisting principally of milk— always, if possible, mother’s milk. Where this is impossible, milk from a healthy cow should be used. Too much care cannot be exercised in preventing it from souring. “When the child is healthy and possessed of 4 good appetite, a simple and easily digested food consisting of a mixture of either cow's milk or cream and arrowroot or Iceland moss !s strongly recommendef, -Or a preparation of toasted light bread and milk can be used. Milk should be used in ehildren’s foods absolutely in some form iintil they are 6 or 6 years of age. “A serious mistake In developing the health of children lies in the tendency of so many parents to allow a reckless use of ice water or other cold drinks. This tends to weaken the child's diges- tive organs. “Another centributory cause of ‘summer com- plaint’ is the carelessness of parents in allow- ing their children to scamper about In the hot sun's rays bareheaded. Many cases of inflain- mation of the brain or cerebro-spinal meningitis are solely attributable to such causes. “Another element of good health for the chil- dren during the hot summer months is regular of such foods bath. It opens up the pores of the skin, render- ing the child less liable to disease. “It should be remembered, too, that the hair of a child up to the 12th year should de kept short.

HERE its one doctor in St. Louis who earned 1 his diploma under more serious difficulties usually sur®pund the student. His He is a negro. than name is J. R. Dandridge. ~_——— a a ae Dr. Loftus, Citing the Case of a Kansas Physician Who Starved to Death, Aims a Blow at Medical College Authorities. N incident occurred in Fort Scott, Kan., last week, which, while being exceptionally sad, is instructive in many ways, and particu- larly illustrates the logical result of the present management of the medical profession. An honorable physician of an Eastern State, who would not stoop to take up the methods now resorted to for obtaining and extending medical practice, found it necessary to go elsewhere in the hope of obtaining more favorable conditions. Naturally enough, he went West. The newspaper paragraph states that he was for a long time without food, was too proud to beg and, béing unable to subsist upon foul rem- nants of food found in alleys, died of starvation, As he did not take any of those short cuts into eternity with which physiclans are acquainted, some of which are painiess, the avoidance of suicide proclaims him to have been a Christian. Strange as it may appear, it is quite possible that his uprightness militated against his attempt to re-establish himeelf in practice. The medical colleges are responsible for physician's death. American Medical Association and that body, be- ing the custodian of the rules of the profession, has kept in force a code of laws which, in the changed conditions of the country, have become most tyrannously oppressive. The so-called leading men of the profession, in consideration of their connection with institu- tiona, colleges, etc., claim en immunity from these laws and observe them only when it does this College professors control the ~ absorbing everything in sight calculated to fur- ther enrich themselves. Another member. of the profession must not turn his hand to help himself. ‘‘By dispensation’”’ he is allowed to hang out a sign. If this sign— this unheard-of doctor’s name—fails to cause a sufficient portion of the public patronage to come to this doctor to furnish him with bread and meat, he must starve, precisely as the Fort Scott doctor starved. But, if, on the other hand, the doctor adopts any of the means approved of and followed in reputable commercial circles, he is damned here and hereafter by the medical col- leges and their coteries of. adherents. It may be said: “Let the profession prevail upon the various Legislatures to have medical college charters revoked. Let it be shown that these colleges are pauperizing the profession by flooding the country with new graduates each year, and at the same time hinder old and new from acquiring professional: work.” Legislatures would, no doubt, do this ff the properly presented to them. But outraged portion of the profession is great, Kh lacks that cohesive. ness and adaptability to legisiative work which money alone can give. The profession, while having right on its side, would fall, the college party having all the money. The public, in pity or disgust, may come to the rescue, in the sweet by and by, but so far as the profession is con- cerned, things will continue to go from bad to worse. ; There are “reconcentrados” elsewhere than in DR.

SF RK ee ete 5 rR one ah % Pigs | SS, Seven years ago Dandridge secured the posi- tion of janitor at the American Medical College Building. He swept the floors, dusted the furnl- ture and observed everything that was going on around him. His observation was so well dl- rected that he soon acquired an Insight into the mysteries of medicine. He decided to be a doctor, but he had no money with which to enroll him- self as a student, and besides that, he was con- fronted by the fact that the American Médical College does not solicit colored patronage. While meditating over his future course, Dan- dridge was a silent student. Without betraying his anxious ambition, the janitor listened to the lectures, taking care to keep a safe distance to the rear. He plodded along in this way for three years. When at last he had acquired enough edu- cation to become somewhat bold, he confided to the college faculty his desire to be .a doctor. His employers knew him as a faithful, honest pegro, and his case received their attention. The result was that formalities were waived and Dan@ridge was permitted to become a student. Everybody around the college felt kindly toward him, and in deportment and class rating he ranked along with the best. 4 At the college commencement a few weeks ago, there was one diploma on which was written the name of the colored janitor. Up to the very mo- ment that his diploma was handed to him he attended to his janitor work. In presenting the diploma the college faculty paid the negro medi- cine man a high compliment. Some of the most prominent doctors in 8t. Louis are interested in Dandridge, delleving his case to be unparalleled ag an example of a self- made man, ee ee HENRY DRECKER’S STRONG BONES. R. HENRY J. HELLWIG of the City Dis- [) pensary staff had a case for treatment last week, which he regards as exceed- ingly rare, Henry Drecker, a boy of 17, living at 109 South Fifteenth street, was run over by a wagon loaded with clay and sustained neo injury beyond «a bruised leg. Both wheels of member just above was not broken. “Had that boy been 10 years older,” said Dr. Helwig, “the bone would undoubtedly have been splintered ang crushed to fragments. “Even at hit age it is remarkable that a frac- ture did not occur. Under similar circumstances a broken bone would result in ninety-nine out of the wagon passed over the the knee, and yet the bone for the bone, solid and yet pliable enough to give and take the enormous pressure of the wagon’s weight off the bone when the wheels passed over his leg. “It is probable that the lad was further fer tunate with his leg resting between two blocks of the granite paving at the place where the wheels touch, a circumstance that would make a fracture less liable than the squeezing of the bone between the unyielding surfaces of the granite and the wheels.” HOW TO PREVENT A SUMMER COLD. HIS is the time when imprudent people cone Ee tract those disagreeable colds that hang on through the summer months, sald Dr. H. M. Julian of 7608 Virginia avenue. “In anticipa- tury delight people sit out on their front steps or porch in their shirt sleeves or with their hats and coats off, until thoroughly cooled and sat- urated with the damp atmosphere. “They retire and wake up the following morn- ing with a slight cold. Very .little attention is given it and when they again begin to perspire freely they will seek a mode to cool of quickly and aggravate the little cold which they have already. “There are other imprudent actiona, often over- looked, which tend to increase the cold and keep it rife throughout the summer. | “No one should sit out of doors these nights without coat, sack and hat, nor allow himself to cool off too quickly. They should not omit there things before the end of the first week in June. STRANGE FEATURE OF OSTEOMYELITIS, EVERAL cases of osteomyelitis of the femur —disease of the marrow of the great bone of the leg—have come before the attentiog of Dr. Frank Boogher recently. In each casa, after an operation, there has been a dislocation of the head of the femur. For this fact Dr foogher is at a loss to account, and It is « subs ject of much discussion among other surgeons, — C-mteomyelitis Is due to an Injury to the bene, and may be caused by a blow or a fall.

Look at a weather bureau map of last weck and observe that it is marked “low” over all the country, except in the North- west, where the barometer is marked 30.5, w.th a mark of 29.5 at Kansas City. Did you know what that meant? It signified that there had been an excessive accumula- occurs, tion of heat and molsture in the arid plains of the Southwest, growing and spreading as it went, becoming heavier and denser, until a vacuum was created, into which the cool, dry air from the Northwest came rushing with a violence generally of 50 or 6) miles an hour.

It is this: USE MACHINERY. Years ago John Ruskin founded the St. George Society in England. He set men to work with spades to get their sustenance from the soll. He detested machinery. He put men at work that has wasted their time. Every hour spent in doing work by hand that can better be done by a ma- chine is an hour wasted. If I can produce 150 bushels In a single day by using a machine and only 10 bushels in the same time by hand labor, necessaries of life—food and _ clothing, that the artist and Ruskinite can have no quarrel with machinery. It iggpot ad- vocated for producing art work or the beautiful objects of life. But the more time it saves us in the production of necessaries, the more time we shall have try’s sugar consumption, and sugar must become ‘“‘dirt cheap.” A similar enormous difference is found between machine production and hand production in the making of cloth, cloth- ing and shoes. It is in the production of the ordinary for cultivating the arts and sciences. With the Paget warp weaver, shown at the Paris Exposition, a worker can pro- duce each day the following goods: 48 woolen undershirts or sweaters; or 400 scarfs or small shawls; or 100 fringed towels; or 50 yards of cloth, 84 inches wide. With the Miller loom, which is the lat- est invention in this line, 200 yards of cloth of any kind can be woven in a day of 10 hours. Here, as in agriculture, the production per individual per day is from 20 to 30 soe J ~ ——~ ~~ ” te, ed +i. it is evident that I waste 14 days in pro- ducing the 150 bushels with a spade in- stead of a steam plow. I have for years collected data as to the actual production of various mod- ern machines.

The figures are |. ae vetted : based on reports of what machines can do, gathered from trade and other jour- nals. In agriculture—raising wheat, for in- stance—the machine that will do the most work and hence waste least time and give the greatest product is.a giant steam cultivator, in use in California. A picture of it is here|given. This machine, worked by three men, can plow, or sow, or reap, 100 acres of land per day. The three men, to produce a wheat crop,®will have to run their machine four times over the land—to plow, harrow, sow ar eens i tee ee ee eee eee + dt mere” ee \—- ‘ 5.62 bushels of wheat pro- duced in one day by one si; Of wheat ee produced in ke # oe one day by ie one man with machinery. “iri? ree “0 - ? | i ‘ . wey “ i 4. ms rf ey * pete fee a Nive ae as Adve = a ae "oy wings Son hy yee aes *¥e eid Re igf*d Rye Bile ke: Saris A GIANT: GARVESTER@ Banat Reh ee diane la? This new type of haswester hes teen used in the San Joaquin Valley, Cal. The cutting line of the machine is fifty- ster two feet wide. It euts,.threshes and sacks the grain at the rate of 500 to 1800 sacks a day, and covers an area in that time of one hundred acres, a" g OGL ular 4 and finally reap. If the land were well fertilized, the crop ought to be 30 bushels per acre. That is an average crop in Europe. But let us put the crop at half that—15 bush- els an acre, Then our 100 acres produces 1500 bush- els with 3 men’s work for four days. One man, therefore, in one day, has produced 125 bushels. If the same man had worked with a spade he would probably have cultivated, working very hard, a quarter of an acre in the same time. Bilis total product would have been but 8% bushels. His sin- gie day's product would be one-fourth of that, or less than a bushel. Working with a horse and plow he could cultivate 1% acres. His total crop would be 22% bushels.

In the production of other food mate- rials, such as potatoes and root crops, the enormous advantage of machinery is equally apparent. With the giant cultivator and the soil and weather necessary to make the crop, the following figures represent a man’s product for a single day's work: Potatoes, 210 bushels.

We can dig coal at the rate of 250 tons a day to each machine or ex- cavate dirt at a much greater speed. A communitg of 100 persons with such machines could command an amount of leisure time that would be impossible working by hand or merely with ne animals. Such a community with free access to land could raise all its wheat for a year (say 1200 bushels) in eight days. It coul@ raise all its potatoes, gay 1200 bushels, in about 5% days.

PROSECUTION IS THREATENED. Gossip of the Wheel by “‘The Referee,”’ Who Tells the Latest News. missioner Kabfell has issued his no- tice that he will get after the delin- guents on June 1 and those who have not paid the bicycle tax of $1 will be liable to be arrested and put under the tender wing of Chief Campbell. Every rider is required to pay to the Commissioner $1 per year for the privilege of riding over the streets of the city, and he gets a little tag to put on the lront of his wheel. I would urge that strict pompliance with the law be observed, for a policeman is authorized to arrest all who not placed the tag on the steering pave no cattion whether they have paid the ~- ‘or not. I understand that systematic raids will be made this year 4s last and that the police will be ordered to pay €s- pecial attention to the riders and to be where the wheelmen most do assemble and there gather in the tardy ones. Last year the cyclists paid into the city treasury about $17,000 and had $5000 expended on cycle paths in Forest Park, where path are little needed. This year I would suggest that the wheelmen should try to have some of the money applied to streets, which are now almost impassable and-not to have it paid out on paths where the roads are good ough. a do not know how the Missouri division stands this week and neither does anyone else excepting Secretary Bassett. This State did not have a single application in the Bulletin and therefore no record of the number of members appears. In the renewal column Missouri is credited with 43, but it is safe to say that this number is no more than the expirations of the past week. In- dications point to a decrease, and at this time of the year when new members can be easily gotten in, if some effort is not made to recruit the membership, ail had just as well be abandoned, as it is the general experience that the beginning of the riding season is primarily the time to interest cyclists in the L, A .. but we seem to be absolutely standing still. Ido not know of a single effort that has been made by Chief Consul Lucas to Increase the num- bers, and I do not care how much else is done if the membership is allowed _ to dwindle, the chief consul will be held ac- countable for the loss. No one can get members without going after them. I heard the other day of a smooth piece of work that was done by one faction of the Southwest Ciub that was equal to the politicians of the old and fiery days of’ this division. It seems that there was a ment in the club and one of the factions determined to gain the best possi- ble advantage with the small majority it had. Deep plans were laid and when the meeting: was called to settle the difficulty m member of the larger faction offered a resolution to the effect that the club dis- d and that the property be sold at the conclusion of the meeting to the highest bidder for cash. This took the wemaller faction off their feet, so to speak, and they protested violently, but to no avail. The other side had the majority and so it went through and trustees were appointed to conduct the sale. When the sale took place [3 issn riders, beware!

The Eastern writers are atill talking about the McCoy-Rvhlin mill. They did not look for McCoy to have the picnic with Ruhlin he had. In fact many of them expected to see McCoy receive an awful trouncing and they were led to this belief by the early state- ments of Corbett. Jeffries was at one time Corbett’s spar- ring partner. One day while having «4a friendly bout they quarreled. that occasion tried to put it over Jeffries. Instead Jeffries put it over him. Corbett remembering that Jeffries had beaten him in a friendly bout and that Ruhlin had boxed Jeffries to a standstill berg that Ruhlin would defeat McCoy easily. That the reverse was the case is bad for Corbett for ivshows that McCoy is not only amatch for him but according to the form book ought to lick him should they ever meet in the ring. Another individual that McCoy will use as a sort of trial horse in his way to the pugilistic throne is Joe Chqynsk# He and Choynski are matched to fight 20 rounds at New York on June 27. Choynski has done some good fighting in his day. His best fight they say was when he met Fitzsim- mons «at Boston and dealt him a blow whica sent Bob to grass and nearly left him there. Indeed, many say that Fitz should have been counted out on that occasion, In- stead he hugged Choynski until he had re- covered from the fearful pungh the latter had given him and then he went in and thumped the life out of the Californian. Notwithstanding Choynski’s good showing against Fitz and others general opinton among the fancy is that McCoy will make a mark of him. They argue that Choyn- ski’s open guard and*clumsy way of fight- ing will prove a poor mask to as clever, fast and scientific a fighter as McCoy. When McCoy defeated Ryan and Creedon there were those who said any good big man would easily get away with the Kid. But the showing made by Ruhlin egainst McCoy proves that the latter isa dangerous customer, and that he is Hable to get away with the very top notchers among the heavy weights. The Eastern scribes are all giving Cor- bett an awful jacketing for his exhibition at Syracuse.’ The Referee says that Cor- bett made a lot of enemies and no friends by his uncalled-for performance after the battle. The Referee covers the case nicely when he says: “Let us for a moment look at the facts. McCoy had just fought a tough battle. and even if he was to be challenged at the finish of the fight, when he stood panting in the ring was hardly the time for Corbett to get his work in. hy, it looked as though it was necessary for the great ex-champion of the world to dive into the ring, make a pas- sionate speech and issue a challenge for the sake of getting a little additional news- paper notoriety. Corbett must indeed be- ieve himself to be a has-been when he THE BONER COMERHBERMN SPORTS, Corbett on. THEY WILL BE HELD AT THE * FAIR GROUNDS NEXT 8UN- DAY AFTERNOON. A GREAT TIME IS EXPECTED. All the Crack Athletes of This Vicinity Now in Training for the Vari- ous Evcnts. ; The largest field day and picnic ever given by the Ancient Order of Hiberniane will be held at the Fair Grounds on Sunday, June 6. The richest trophies ever offered at a similar entertainment will be given as an inducement to the city’s best athletes to properly condition themselves for the races and athletic events. Just now in anticipation of the sports 6o near at hand the athletes are working hard and the different training grounds these days present a very busy appearance. Though it is a trifle early in the cinder path season the boys are so eager to be in good trim to contest for the handsome diamond, gold and silver trophies offered to first, and seconds that they are ali advanced in their training to a marvelous degree. John J. O’Connor of 2718 Thomas street and Al H. Jones of 415 Securuy Building are now registering the athletes who wiiil take part in next Sunday's events. The Taces are to be held under the auspices of the A. A. U. and only registered ath- letes w:li be allowed to start. The taking of entries for this meet was concluded yesterday and the list of com- petitors is a big one. A very large field will contest In the 100 and 220-yard sprints, 440 yards and mile run. The fifth of a mile contrary race will be once around the amphitheater, one-half the field going one way and the other half the other, and the first man in is declared the winner. To this event there are many entries. The throwing the 16-pound shot and put- ting 56-pound ‘weight events have filled well. The egg race and the running high jump include some speedy high jumping timber. There will also be hurling contests between the Emmets and the Wolf Tones and horse and mule races. The affair will have a double duty to per- form. It will commemorate the 1898 Irish Centennial and the Wolf Tone and Emmet uprising, when the French fleets invaded Ireland, and it will help boom and perpetu- ate field athletics here. Bert Mathers, the best man in training here, is said to be conditioning himself for the games, J. Lewis Holland, the local and sixteen State champion sprinter of this district has been ill for the past month, not permitting him to train for the sprints. But it is not entirely improbable that Lew will not line up before Starter Wilson when the day comes. By July 4 Holland may be in con- dition to do himself justice, Harry Vandewater, the speedy youngest son of the handicapper, Chas. Vande- water, is said to be fit to race right now for a king’s ransom. He has been training for some time, and loves to have more than a look in in all the races in which he com- petes. Patsy Bellair has been working hard at the Forest Park grounds to get in shape for these events. He won the Irish Nationalist Trophy last year, aged gow now he is car- rying much weight and will have to work FOR THE MEMORIAL A GRAND FIELD TO START IN THAT EVENT AT THE FAIR GROUNDS. IT WILL BE RUN TO-MORROW. Sixty-Eight Horses Were Nominated for This Event, and Nearly a Dozen Will Face the Flag. Two corking good etakes will be decided at the Fair Grounds this week. Monday the Memorial Handicap will be the racing piece and Saturday, the Club Members Handicap will bring together the best fleld of handicap horses seen at the local track this season. The Memorial is for all ages at five and a half furlongs. It is assuredly ae purely sprinting contest, but it is the kind of a horse race that provokes a plethora of spec- ulation and admits of a heart failure fin- ish, Sixty-elght horses were entered in the Meimoriu: and twenty per cent of that number will line up in front of the starting barrier to contend for the purse of $120 guaranteed to the owner of the winner by the Fair Association. Of the probab.e starters, Gath is assigned the top weight of 130 pounds. Abuse siands second with 127. Lieoer Karl comes third with 126, followed by Algol and bnchanter with 120 each. The Elector who is rapidly regaining his best form is asked to snoulder 117 pounds and What-er-Lou and Ed Far- reil, both winners at the meeting were well taken care of at 115. Our Chance hrs to carry 100 pounds, and Ben Bramble, the 2-year-old son of Bramble and Il] Wind, is the pick of the feather- weights with 8 pounds. Abuse is at this moment an unbeatable horse. He has such grand driving power that 127 pounds is a mere bagatelle to him. His speed is of the Kingston quality, and with a capable jockey in the saddle he should land the Memorial for Fred Foster. Abuse galloped five furlongs May 2 in 1:01 with 1:15 up. He will probably cover the five and a half furlongs the Memorial calls for in 1:08, and that will win the race. Brewer Schorr may start both Lieber Karl and Algol, and as no one questions the speed ability of the pair, one of the two should get a piece of the pte. The Elector and What-er-Lou are both troubled with the same fault. They are slow breakers, and in a sprint of this na- ture such a handicap amounts to an em- bargo against their chance of securing the coveted prize, Ed Farrell and Ben Bramble are half- brothers, their dam being Ill-Wind. Both are wonderfully speedy thorough- breds, and whichever of the pair is sent for the Memorial by W. L. Simmons will be the horse the winner of the race will have to beat. Ben Bramble can reel off eighths in 11 seconds in the way that Laureate was once able to show two sum- mers ago. John Huffman is still unconvinced that Our Chance is not a sprinter of high de- gree. Huffman has a way of taking down @ purse each day with copyright regu- larity, but it looks as if in this race the Greenville horseman will have to be con- tent with fourth place, which at least will enable him to saye the entrance fee. The Club Members’ Handicap is always productive of a high-class and noteworthy THEY ARE DUE FOR TWO GAMES IN WASHINGTON OW. DECO- RATION DAY. ARE NOW PLAYING GOOD BALL. A Schedule Showing What the Players of the St. Louis Team Hope to Do on This Trip. The St. Louls Browns left last night on their first Eastern tour of the year. They go from here direct to Washington where on Monday, Decoration Day, they play games in the morning and afternoon. From Washington they go to Baltimore and from Baltimore to Philadelphia. After their se- ries with the Phillies they go to Chicago and from Chicago they come home, meet- ing the Louisvilies on June 16. To-morrow, Decoration Day, is the big baseball day in the East. On that day all the Western clubs will be In the East play- ing double headers with the Eastern teams. The full schedule for to-morrow is: St. Louis at Washington. Chicago at Boston. Baltimore at Pittsburg. Cincinnati at Brooklyn. Cleveland at New York. Louisville at Philadelphia. All the clubs play games and afternoon, ® in the morning A week ago the Post-Dispatch in talking of the reorganized St. Louis team said: “The St. Louis- Browns have proven one thing the last week and that is that they are liable to beat any mans club. Their victories over Chicago and New York proves them a dangerous lot, and the nine which goes to Sportsman’s Park these days looking for a cinch is very often likely to be treated to a surprise party. Well the surprise party was in evidence this week when the Browns took Boston into camp one game and came near frightening them to death in another, here was.a time not long ago when all the big Eastern clubs had to do was to come here and walk off with all four games they played. Now it’s different. The Browns are a ying a plucky game, and beside that they are always.trying to win. A year ago they often looked as though they were try- ing to lose. Now it is just the other way, and every member of the team appears to be putting in his best licks. The team which left here fast night fs in better shape than at any time this season, The pitchers are all .in good form. Decker, who was hurt in a collision the other day. is himself again. Crooks has almost re- covered from his lameness and all the rest of the boys appear to be doing quite well. In this trip the Browns hope to make this record: Win three out of four from Washington. Win two out of four from Paltimore. Win two out of four from Philadelphia, Win two out of four from Chicago. The above is nota bad estimate. At Phil- adelphia they may more than break even, but if they do only as well as they say they will do they will make the best record scored by a St. Louis club on a tour since the days of the Champion Browns. Bobbie Caruthers, once the crack pitcher of the St. Louis Browns, is now holding down an umpire’s position out in the Western Association at a salary of one contest.

The majority faction had brought all the money they could rake’ and scrape and were prepared to pay cash in accordance with the resolution and they insisted that no bid be accepted unless cash was ready. Now, the minority, not expecting the move, had left all their available cash in their strong boxes at home and therefore were debarred from bidding. The majority bought all the furnishings of the house and had -them carted off the next morning and proceeded to organize the Star Cycle Club, leaving the minority to hold the name of the Southwests if they wanted to, and an empty bag. I understand that the matter will be taken into the courts, but _ have not ‘heard definitely whether suit will brought or not. IT see that nearly all the professionals who can race at all have registered with the Racing Board as every one expected. But it occurs to me that the members of the board will not get that $1000 per year that Chairman Mott said they would. At the last national assembly ‘Mr. Mott stated that there were 3000 professionals in this country and that if they were taxed $2 each the members of the board could be paid $1000 @ year. But I see that only about 20 have registered, and this gives but $400 to be divided among the board members. It never seemed to strike Mr. Mott that some of the 3000 cash riders who are on his books are dead and that many are men who quit rid- ing when they were traneferred to the pro- fessional class against their will. Gome also have quit because their riding days are over, and thesé will not bother about regis- tering. Then where is the $6000 to come from? I heard a friend of mine “oy the other Gay that my good friend John Sheridan, the local member of the Racing Board, was making a grand success in his office, and that he was conducting it without any fric- tion. I quite agreed with him and felt sure that if Brother Sheridan pursued the same policy in the future that he has in the ast he would have no friction at all. I! ave looked in vain for a single offic‘al act f his in the weekly Racing Board Bulletin. have never discovered that he has dis- ciplined eitber a man or a promoter, and find that he has only been granting sanc- tions. It may be that e@tnce Sheridan took hold the amateurs are behaving themselves or that every. one is striving to obey the ules, but I doubt it. I rather think that Heridan is pursuing a policy that {s politic, and that he is not going to lose his popu- rity for the benefit of pure sport as hie friend Robert did. T hear rumors that Chief Consul Lucas is ing to resign. Of course it is not of- iat but I well know that Mr. Lucas is not satisfied with his office, and that he would not be averse to wletuds of private life. Mr, Lucas was unanimnous choice of the dly'sion, an4 great things were expected of him, but as I am compelled to say that he has accomplished anything wonderful, in mberehip. Mr. Lucas !s eminently qual- for the position if he cared to spend *the time the office requires, “but he does not. ® ta not disposed to hustie as Bob Holm _ and if anyone thinks that the office of jef Consul can be filled without hustiing ia mistaken.

Nic Young, the veteran president of the National League, saw a game at Cincin- nati this week between the Reds and the Brooklyns, the first he has witnessed in Cincinnati since the Fourth of July, 1871, nearly 27 years ago. Before the game Pres- ident Young went on the field, where he met two members of his staff of umpires, Swart- wood and Wood, who ran over from 8t. Louis. The opinton of “the boys’ was weil expressed by St. Jacob Beckley, who Said: “You are looking younger every day. Wiken are you going to get back in the game?’ The game must have brought up many sad memories to the veteran presi- dent of the League. Many of the oid stars who shone in 1871 have long since struck out. Harry Wright was then in the genith of his glory and King Kell, Williamson and many another, whose star has since suf- fered art eclipse, had not then earned the reputation they held in later years. Young was a member of the Olympic Club of Washington, 29 years ago, and since then an almost entirely new basebail world has | grown up about him, : many of the players and snook hands: with There is trouble just now ifn the ranks of the Washington club. A baseball writer of Washington talking about it says: “It ts hinted that the players are in a conspiracy to become rid of the captain. Doyle is the favored one. AMmy one who watched the Washington series could see that Doyle was more in ev.dence than was Brown, although _ the captain spent most of his time in either | of the coaching boxes. Doyle is aggressive and a snappy player of the Hanlon school, but he will never acquire as much common sense as ‘Tom’ Brown could afford to leave at home at any game without crippling his generalship. When a team is losing a few gkames the manager comes in for all sorts of scoring.” Joe Campbell says: “There is no happy medium, none of the so-so or tolerable about Cy Seymour When me * is keyed up to his tip-top pitching notch, he is a twir ing vo- cabulary of interrogation points, But when this cyclone from Albany flops he is like unto the little girl with the hyperion lock o’er her forehead—horrid.” He must have flopped last Saturday when he piayed the Browns and was badiily beaten by them.

From Which Dan- gerous Blood Poison Re- sults. It matters not how blood ison is acquired, whether by inheritance or accident, it is a stubborn, obstinate disease and one which the doctors find themselves unable to success- fully treat. Whenever there is the slightest impurity in the blood, any accident which pro- duces‘even a trivial bruise or contusion of the flesh, is likely to result seriously. Chronic sores and ulcers often result from such causes, and in many cases they are so obstinate that it takes years to get rid of them. The doctors are unable tocure such cases because potash and mercury (the only remedies which they ever prescribe for the blood) tend to shut in the sm on and dry it up in the blood. Here it lies dormant for a while, only to break out in a more ag- ravated form than _ before. his treatment is continued and the same conditions exist for years, the old sore or ulcer becoming a constant compan- ion to those whom it afflicts. Capt. J. H. McBrayer, the walt dehignes distiller of fine Ken- tucky whiskies, had just such an experience, and he is so de- ligh to find a cure after wants everybody to know just how to get rid of these horrible chronic sores. He now resides at Lawrenceburg, Ky., and writes: *‘Some years ago I was shot in the left leg, receiving what I considered only a slight wound.

“REMEMBER TAC MAINE’? .. - Eastern Unitarians Say the Cry ls Revengeful and Shoutd Be Abolished, =. THEY HAVE PETITIONED NAVAL SECRETARY LONG. St. Louisans Generaffy Befieve It Is a Battle Cry and Should Be En- couraged Among Our Fighters, REASONS FOR THEIR BELIEF EN signal flags of blue, red and yel- ac low floated over the Olympia when Dewey's flagship led his squadron into hattle at Manila. The same flags flut- tered from the signal halyafd on the Iowa when Sampson's flagship moved up the Porto Rican bay to attack the fortifications of San Juan, The flags, speaking the secret language of the sea, are greeted with cheers wher- ever they are shown to the men of our Navy. They mean ‘‘Remember the Maine.” Cervera will see them fiying if he ventures out of jug-shaped Santiago harbor; Blanco will hear them greeted with wild yells when the fleet of vengeance assails the fortifica- tions of Havana. F The navy remembers the Maine, the army remembers the Maine and the country, be-.- tween tears and cheers, remembers, too. The. phrase is the slogan, the battle cry in our war with Spain. It is stamped on soal- diers’ food; it will be heard on all flelds. It has excited antagonism and is de- nounced by the advocates of peace; by those who weuld make of war occasion for the exchange of refined courtesies, by thase whé look upon demonstrations of force as our only duty, by those who hope that di- _ plomacy will yet save Spanish 4s from ut- ter collapse. Here is the argument against the cry @divanced by the Massachusetts Unitarian Association in resolutions addressed to John D. Long, Secretary of the Navy: As the ‘gsfensible and only justifiable motive for entering upon the war with Spain was the deliverance of a nelghboring people and ourselves from relationg to them that had become intolerable, we wish to ex- press our abhorrence of the spirit of vengeance manifested in guch a war cry as ‘‘Remember the Matine,’’ and beg you to refuse .to purchase goods of any kind bear- ing this motto, and in all ways to discour- age and discontenance the use of this motto or any other ealeufated to foster the spirit of savagery against which we are contending. And here follow Loulsans: T. B. BOYD—‘“Write the grand motto on every cracker and let it meet the eye of every soldier and citizen wherever they chance to look.

NOBLE—“ ‘Remember he Maine’ is a good motto to write on our earts. but not suitable for hardtack or Sausage wrappers. It should not be brought as prominentiy into the foreground as it has been, because this war means more than that. It is a war to punish Spain for her cruelty of ages, and to confine the watchword to the Maine belitties thé cause. It has a tinge of revenge also that I do not believe belongs to this war of ours. “We are fighting to show Spain that she cannot bring the cruelty of middle ages into this enlightened time and slaughter thou- sands of people before our very doors with impunity. Therefore let us not serve up the Maine at meals and twenty times a day— on hardtack as well as sausages. When the boys rush into battle the expression is all right, but it seems a straining after effect when made too common.” LOVWIS F. SOLDAN, Superintendent of Public schools—‘‘In war times there is no place for sentiment, and I see no reason that ‘Remember the Maine,’ shouldn't be a g00d watchword. I don't like a revenge- ful sentiment at any time, still in times uf war we can not weigh too carefully.” Cc. P. WALBRIDGE. Ex-Mayor of 8t. Louls—“‘In every war there must be a bat- tle cry, and ‘Remember the Maine’ is an excellent one, as it represents the imme- diate cause of the trouble. The broader cause of course is not embraced in this cry— and for the massee it is not necessary that it should be, When a commander of the American army talks to his men be- fore an engagement takes place, he could not dwell on the deeper cause—but inspires them by calling upon them to Remember the Maine; and one mighty shout goes up from the thousands of men ready to die for their country—and they are inspired with that—to do their. best. : “Therefore I think it is an excellent watchword. It ie revengeful ina sense, but then all war is revenge for wrongs of some sort, either of party or nation—and while our war is not nearly al! revenge, we will get that, in righting the deeper wrongs that the Spaniards have been guilty of. CLARK-H. SAMPSON—‘The most in- spiring watchword is the one to be pre- fered—as it is results we are after. The Maine disaster ig only one link in a chain of cruelties that the Spanish nation have been guilty of, and consequently when the boys go into battle with that cry they mean it as symbolical of all of the Spanish iniquities. The cry stimulates the soldiers like wine, and they fight better for re- membering the 250 brave sailor lads that were drowned like rate—by Spanish treach- ery without even a chance to fight. I too sav ‘Remember the Maitne’.”’ REV. H. M. CHITTENDEN, pastor of St. George’s Episcopal Church, Alton—’The Maine is a good thing for every American to remember, and that battle cry is all right. Revenge the Maine, I don’t approve of— but it is only human nature for every man, woman and child to remember the terrible disaster in the Cuban harbor and the soldiers are bound to fight harder with the watchword on their banners. WINFIELD SCOTT CHAPLIN, Chancel- oO Washington University—‘‘I have no Padi that cach commander, both of land and sea forces, wishes to use the battlecry that will inspire his troops more than any other. ‘Remember the Maine’ is as good a cry as any, but when it comes to puttin it on the soldiers’ hard-tack, etc., I think they are carrying it just a little too far. The gen- eral feeling is for the avenging of the Maine, and the most effective cry 15 Re- meanber the Maine.’ This cry is patriotic 4 inspiring.”’ OREV.. ‘ieee HOSMBR, pastor of the Church of the Unity—‘‘The destruction of the Maine in Havana harbor no doubt has- tened the war. Yet we must remember that the verdict of the experts appointed by our Government to investigate the affair did not locate the responsibility. They confessed their inability to do so. It would seem hasty and unjust, therefore, to fix that responsibility upon the Spanish authorities, a to turn the espousal of Cuban freedom, in itself a humane and noble motive, into the mere spirit of revenge for our brave men who lost their lives in that terrible catastrophe. Ali appeals to national hatred must lower the higher motive we first pro- fessed and leave a bitterness it will take the longer to heal after the war is over. Such badges as ‘To Hell With Spain,’ which one sees offered upon the street, appeal to and. foster not the nobler but the baser passions of the people at large. So is it with such wwareries as ‘Remember the Maine,’ What we all need to do is to Keep steadily in view the higher aim and pur- pose of the war and not confound the en- thusiasm for liberty with the mere thir:t of revenge; and this has the more force in view of that official verdict already re- ferred to.”’ , MRs. J. C. LEARNED of 1748 Waverly place—‘'I certainly think that the cry ‘Re- member the Maine’ should be abolished, We did not goin to this war for the sake of avenging the Maine, but for the purpose of liberating Cuba. It has not been proved that the Spaniards destroyed the Maine and the killing of them in this war will not bring the men who were killed in the ter- rible Maine catastrophe to Hfe again, even if-the Spaniards did blow it up. The spirit of revenge was not the cause of the war, and should in no way be brought before the eoldiere as a cause of the war.”’ MRS. H. H. WAGGONER of 2800 Locust street—'I do not think that the battle cry ‘Remember the Maine’ shou'd be abolished. This war is for the purpose of getting Cuba free and for the avenging of our soldiers who were blown up by Spaniards in Ha- vana harbor. Nothing could have been more cowardly or treacherous than the blowing up of the Maine and the Spaniards should suffer for it. ‘Remember or avenge the Maine, is a strong battie cry and shoul not be abolished under any circumstances.” MRS. C. B. ROHLAND, State street, Al- ton—"'A watchword is as necessary to a war as a motive to Wagnerian Opera. It enthu- ses the soldiers on the eve of a fight by bringing before them vividly the most in- tense feeling of the war. As the destruction of the Maine is the only excuse the United States could have for interfering with Spain and her colonies in any way but ar- bitration, then let the watchword heard from the Fast to the West. ‘Remember thea Maine,’ be the cry heard from the lips of the brave lads that are fighting for their country.” AN EXPLANATION OF THE NAUTICAL TERM “KNOT,” It ls Used by Marines and Equafs 1.15 Geographical or Land Miles. PP more te there. is no nautical term more frequently used during (the present naval war than “knot.” The word ts synonymous with the nautieal mile. or 6080.27 feet, while, as every one Knows, the geographical mile 1s 5280 feet. This would make the knot equal to 1.15 of geographica] miles, and, there- fore, in order to compare the speed of a boat expressed in knots with a rallrcad train it is necessary to multiply the speed in Knots by 1.15. Another point to remem- ber is that speed means a distance traveled in unit time, so that when one speaks of a boat having a speed of ® knots, it is not necessary or proper to add per hour, as ths word itself when employed as a unit of speed signifies nautical miles per hour. A cruiser that makes 21 knots travels geographical miles per hour. The fastest speed yet obtained by any boat ts said to | have been attained by the yacht Ellide, which is known to have a record of one geographical mile in 1 minute 36% sec- onds, or 88.2 miles an hour. In fact, a re- cent article jn one of the engineering jour- nals states that a record of 40 miles an hour has been made by this boat. His Office Manners.

Many other persons suffer from nervous diseases, liver diseases, kidney diseases and skin dis- eases, as the result of irritating poisons in the blood. A majority of such sufferers do not have a definite understanding of the nature of their affliction. The following symptoms have been arranged by Docter Copeland to enable sufferers to understand just what it is that ails them. Although written and copyrighted by him, they have been extensively copied by other concerns. The proper course of those afflicted is this: Read these symptoms carefully over: mark those that apply to your case, and bring this with your to Doctor Copeland. DISEASE DESCRIBED BY SYMPTOMS.

CATARRH OF HEAD and THROAT The head and throat become dis- eased from neglected colds, causing Catarrh, when the condition of the blood predisposes to this disease. ‘Ig the voice husky?’ “Do you a.bhe all over?” “Do you gpit up slime?’’ “Do you snove at night?’ “Do you blow out scabs?’"’ ‘Is your nose stopped up?” “Does your nose discharge?"’ ‘Does the nose bleed easily?’’ ‘‘Is this. worse toward night?" ‘‘Does the nose itch and burn?’ ‘‘Is there pain in front of head?’’ ‘‘Is there pain actoss the eyes?’’ ‘‘Is there tickling in the throat?’ “Is your sense of smell leaving?’ ‘Ibo you hawk to clear the throat?’’ ‘Ie the throet iry in the morning?’’ ‘‘Are you losing your sense of taste?"’ “Do you sleep with your mouth open?’ ‘‘Does your hose stop up towards pnight?’’ r “a / Peter Gaeng, 2267 ladiana av., Cured of Deafness by Doctor Copeland. CATARRH OF BRONCHIAL TUBES This condition often results from catarrh extending trom the head and throat. If left unchecked, it extends down the windpipe into the bronchial] tubes, and in time attacks the lungs. ‘‘Have you a cough?’’ ‘*Are you losing flesh?’’ ‘Do you cougu at night?’’ ‘‘Have you pain in the side?’’ ‘'Do you take cold easily ?’’ ‘Is your appetite variable?"’ ‘*‘Have you stitches in side?’’ **Do you cough until you gag?’ ‘‘Do you raise frothy material ?’’ ‘Do you cough in the morning?’’ ‘*are you low-spirited at times?’’ ‘Do you spit ap yellow matter?’’ ‘Do you cough on going to bed?"’ ‘‘Is your cough sPort and hacking?” ‘Do you spit up little cheesy lumps?’’ 24.15 | **‘Have you a disguet fer fatty foods?” ‘Is there tickling behind the palate?’ ‘Do you feel you are growing weaker?"’ ‘‘Is there a burning pain in the throat?’ ‘Have you pain behind the breastbone?’ “D» you cough worse night and morning?"’ “Do you have to sit up at night to get breath?’ CATARRH OF THE STOMACH.

Poi. “Do SYMPTOMS OF EAR TROUBLES. Deafness and ear troubles often re- sult from Catarrh passing aiong the Eustachian tube that leads from the throat to the ear. “Is your bearing falling ?’’ “Do your ears discharge ?’’ ‘Do your ears itch and burn?” ‘Are the ears dry snd scaly ?"’ “Is there throbbing in the ears?’’ “Have you pain behind the ears?’’ Is there a buzzing sound heard?" ‘Is your hearing bad cloudy days?" ‘Are there crackling sounds heard?” “Do you have earache occasionally ?"’ ‘Do you bave a ringing in the ears?’ ‘Are there gevunds like steam escaping?’’ ‘Is rouring like a waterfall in the head?” “Is heurlng worse when you have a cold?’’ Do your ears burt when you blow your nose?’’ Do you constantly heat noises in the ears?’’ ‘Do you hear better some days than others?’ Do the noises in your ears keep you awake?” ‘When you blow your nose do the eats crack ?’’ DISEASE OF THE KIDNEYS. This condition results either from eolds or from overwork of the kidneys in separating from the blood the poi- tarrh. ‘Do the legs feel heavy?’ “Is the skin pale and dry?’’ “Is your hair getting gray ?’’ ‘Is the skip dry and barsh?" ‘Has the skin a waxy look?’ ‘Are they coid and clammy ?’’ *“‘Is the hair dry and brittle?’ “Ig there nausea after eating ?’’ “Do the joints pain and ache?’’ Is the urine dark aad cloudy?’ “Is there pain in’ small of back?” “Do your hands and feet swell?” “Has the persmration a bad odor?" ‘Is there puffiness under the eyes?’ ‘‘Tlave you pain in top of the head?’ “Is there a bad taste in your mouth?" ‘‘Is there a desire to get up at night?’ ‘‘Are there dark rings around the eyes?" “Do you see spots floating before the eyes?" ‘Have you chilly feelings down the back?’ *‘Does a deposit form when left standing?" “Do you see unpleasant things while asleep ?”’ DISEASE OF THE NERVES.

Il. went all over St. Louis seeking. work, but got only enough to buy bare food. I heard that my brother Henry was doing well as a painter out at Fulton, Mo. I got there by raising some money by selling a suit of clothes to a second-hand clothing merchant. Times were even worse in Ful- ton. You may smile, but I worked as a sort of a chamberma!d in a lodging house kept by @ man named Overton for months, and all I got was board and lodging. “It is a long, uninterestinig story of skir- mishing for work at scanty wages, living in the cheap‘st lodging houses and rustling for food in Fulton, Mo.; Atchison, Kan.; Omaha and Denver in the next three years. I did everything poss:ble to earn an honest dollar, and I don't believe I kt escape one chance. I was always a great reader, and I got lots of information from books and newspapers in that time anyhow. That has been my best hold in success. “My good fortune began in Denver. It began as wonderfully as it has continued up to this time, and I have sometimes late- ly had to almost pinch myself to be sure Iam not dreaming now about the horrible poverty I was enduring only a feWayears ago. One night when I was a waiter in a beer hall in Denver, a young man named Robert Bridger (a drummer fora San Fran- cisco Wine house) strolled in for a chat. He got to telling me what fools poor men were to keep pegaing along and not chance it in the new gold diggings on the Yukon River in Alaska. I was all ears at.once. It was the first time I had ever had any light on how a poor cuss as I was could get ahead. I had read about the Yukon mines, but never thought of myself going there. Before I went to bed that night I read along newspaper article about Alaska and the rush to the Yukon. I dreamed about ogre ce tage seg aan, gmat dears g “Te make « long etery abort, I never ict Denver to go to the new gold fields, and the railroads gave me emigrant transporta- tion to San Francisco, to pay for steering them over certain railroads. I arrived in San Francisco March 16, 1895, with 7 cents in my pocket. I earned my first dollar in California by carrying coal in from a wagon upstairs for a lawyer in the Phelan block on Mrket street, San Fran- cisco. “I did everything to make a dollar in Frisco. When May came I got a job as deck hand and general utility man on the steamer Excelsior, and it was agreed that I was to work my passage to St. Michaels, I had about $15 in my pocket when we sailed out of San Francisco harbor for Alaska. I had no idea what I was doing and what a tremendous risk I was taking, There were over 750 men aboard the Ex- celsior, all bound for the Yukon diggings. Some of them are now very rich Klon- dikers, and more have never made a dol- lar over and above expenses in the Klon- dike, “Among the passengers on the Excelsior was an Englishman, who took very ill after the boat had passed Sitka. I nursed him and sat with him. Before he died with fever he gave me all his Yukon out- fit on board the Excelsior. So there I was with an outfit of food, clothes, gun, boots, etc., that had cost over $300. “It would take columns to tell our expe- riences on the Yukon, It was a frightful year up there at Circle City and at Forty Mile, Even the successes of Klondike have not driven from our memories the blues, the hunger, the cold and the desolation we felt when cold winter came upon our camp of miners in October, 1895. None of us at Circle City, at least, found enough gold to buy food. Any day, from the time the fearful Arctic winter up there closed in upon our tents and cabins on the banks of the Yukon, I would have been delighted to change places with the most unfortunate man in St. Louis. It was no use cursing the luck that brought us to seek goid there, There was no way to get away from the region until the next summer. “When July, 1896, came, and navigation on the Yukon reopened for a few weeks, over 200 men in Circle City, who had means, went away on the Weare for St. Michaels, there to sail for home. What would all of us, who were the hardest up, most discon- solate and half-frozen men you ever saw, have given to have then gone away from that region? ‘In August we heard that some men on a Klondike creek had panned out over 56 pounds of gold tn 10 days. A Tagish In- dian came along and showed our camp a two-ounce nugget he had got for working two glays for a man near Dawson. Well, the whole camp went dead crazy at once. We all started down the Yukon to Dawson City in an old scow, with all our tents and camp outfits on board. ‘To make this brief, I will say that in days time we all had located our I chose one on Gold Rottom Creek. 146 claims located in the fo 1 had the diggings.

All the hard work I used to do in Belleville and St. Louis stood me in good stead then. I had just $2.50 when I got to Dawson, besides my old tent, some codfish, pork and 10 pounds of musty flour and a miner’s pan, shovel and pickaxe. Luckily it was not cold then— about 35 degrees above zero. In a week I had dug down to bed rock on my claim, and I had over $200 in gold. I traded the gold for logs, grub and a blanket. By the middle of October I was getting out a pound of gold every day and sometimes two pounds a day. The mercury went 10 below zero by the first of November, the Yukon was frozen solid a foot thick and I had built my log cabin and paid for it all out of my gold. My cabin cost about $800 in gold. It would cost about $30 in Mis- sourl. “But a man who ts getting 4% and $6 In gold from a pan of gravel, and he has over 1800| square feet of such gravel to work over, isn’t going to make a fuss about a $1000 or so for a thhouse. When Christmas came I had stored away ina tomato can and a powder keg over 30 pounds of gold dust and nuggets, and all my bills had been paid. All winter long I worked with a Tagish Innulit (a native of the region) in digging out the frozen gravel on my claim. I paid the savage an ounce of gold for 10 hours’ work. That is equal to $17. He didn’t begin to labor as I did five years ago for $1.% a day. I heaped the frozen gravel about my cabin until I had a hill higher than the cabin. From December to May I added to the hill of gravel every day. We never knew when Sunday came, and we had no idea a good share of the long, dark and frightfully cold winter what month we were in. I knew I had stumbled on the richest thing on earth, and I meant to get every dollar possible out of it. Let any man, who has beeh as poor a day laborer as I had been, get where he can get out a pound of gold —worth over $200—every day in the week, and he will be as near crazy as 1 was for montns, “The sluicing or washing up of our gold- bearing gravel began last May, when the thaw set in. We finished sluicing last July. I cleaned up 188 pounds of gold dust, and had planned to bring it down to San Fran- cisco and sell it at the mint myself. When I came to study the Canadian mining laws, I was afraid to leave my claim for fear it might be jumped by some of the hundreds of men whom we original Klondikers knew would be stampeding into the new diggings just as soon as the news of our success got out. I wouldn't risk leaving my property in anyone's hands, much as I did want to live like civilized people again. Finally I concluded to ship my gold »y the North- western ‘Transportation Co., which gave me a bond for safe transmission to the United States mint. The company sold the gold for nre, and then was deposited in my name at the Crocker-Woolworth Bank In San Fran- ciseo the sum of $49,128. “I hired two men to work for me on my claim from last July to the middle of Sep- tember, and we dug out gravel one week and sluiced the next. We could do that in warm weather, you know. Altogether we got out 92 pounds more. That I stored in a oal ofl can under the bank in my log cabin. When freezing weather set in, we began getting out frozen gravel, whfth we have heaped up about the cabin. I] sold a third interest in my claim to an honest. tried. true young man, Allen Brooks. from Rochester, N. Y., one bitter cold day last January for $,000—one-half cash down. The annual clean-up or sluic- ing on the claim is probably now in prog- ress, and the terms of the registered con- tract between my partner and me are that I shall have $40,000. from this season's clean-up and he shall have the rest. I am sure the whele clean-up will amount to about $65,000. “Certain.y I have plans for my enjoy- ment of the great fortune that has come to me. I have lain many a sleepless night and planned and planned I believe that in about two years from now my claim on Gold Bottom will be worked out and I shall be compelled to get out of that awfu!

This flag of 1775 was designed by a committee appointed by the States for that purpose, and con- sisted of Dr. Benjamin Franklin and Messrs. Lynch and Harrison. 1 was hoisted fer the firet time with great ceremony in the presence of the army at Cam- bridge on Jan. 1. 1776, five months before the Dociara- tion ef Independence. The real “Star-Spangied Banner’ was not born until April 19, 1777, when Congress decided that the national! flag of the confederated States should consist of thir- teen stars on a blue field, with thirteen red and white alternate stripes to represent the number of the orig- inal revolting colonies.

Tt was this flag that waved over the battle-fleld at Saratoga. lt is the unive rsali notion that in the war we warmed so successfully with Great Britain in 1812 that the “Mar-Spangied Banner’’ consisted. as to-day, of thir- teen fed and white stripes. Dut this popular notion is @rroneouws. All throughout that war with Mnctan« the banner of the United States consisted of fifteen stars and fifteen stripes. This came about by the parsage of an act by Congress on May 1, IT%. wlileoh stipulated that “henceforth the national standard will be composed of fifteen stars and fifteen stripes, with the addition of one atar and one stripe for every new Btate which might be admitted to the Union.” m mes x Mera y=, ore, Kee £ ed =" Bs “ ae ‘ 5 ade WR. i " bone oh Spa wh a be i - g 90 Pg a ONT a ae Pee Tage Bean A. hy LONER Se LAE ty “ile ae aro een RES Yds Siete: ES eee ah t . se > a Lig we iw wth Si “ le re APS Tee yee sf Ory RA aks es fy ces ht ae any pet oe.

TAF SAAT SP 2DOOSOODOS- DY OOOOH 2G six of the best women riders in the country. They all belong to the Meadowbrook Hunt Club, which, as you know, is the most “nelish of all our exhibits. To become a member of the Meadowbrook Club ‘equires several things in the way of credentials. Money, while of course it is a great lubricator, is not absolutely necessary. Mang deserving young men and women have been permitted to break their necks and enjoy other privileges of the club who have had the most meagre of bank accounts while the rich have been sent away whole and entire. To be in real good standing in the Meadowbrook Hunt Club one is supposed to have a bowing ac~- quaintance with the Prince of Wales. This can be easily managed, however, for the Prince has to bow to very large crowds at times, on occa- sions like the jubilee, for instance. He must go in for county simplicity if he pro- poses to dwell among the Wheatley Hills. The hurry and skurry of the city is left behind, and life resolves itself into a roast-beef-and-pudding sort of existence, as. British as it is satisfying. Even with all these qualifications the aspirant may have to do his riding “outside” and take his croppers and his broken legs all by his lonesome and ambitious self, for the Meadowbrook has made unto itself laws like those of the Medes and the Persians. And the camel entering the eye of the needle is a compara- tively simple bit of juggling alongside of the outsid- ers entering the Meadowbrook Club. Thrift is the proper pose on Long Island, and if. one hears of this friends raising chickens or mushrooms for the New York market it does not necessarily im- y reverses. On the contrary it argues that stocks id the gods have probably been more than kind, and the venture represents the investment of some nest- ne. The six women whose pictures are here given have 1d no such social rough riding before them. They ere the backbone of the. club, and sit in judgment on a OO ~@ 7 y ifite sa ti, 6 “ on sel Juttt we / ame. a’ ¢ “9 ae aan i accident, a weed or so ago, when Mr. Hitchcock dis- located his hip and knee joint, Mrs. Hitchcock was the first to reach her husband’s side and render prompt service. Mrs. James L. Kernochan pushes Mrs. Hitchcock a close second in the hunting fleld. There are very few meets that are not graced by the presence of Mrs. “Jimmy.” She can also lay claim to attend- ing the most novel chase on record—namely, a burg- lar hunt. Some time ago a quantity of silver was stolen from the Kernochans, Mr. and Mrs, Ker- nochan, accompanied by several members of the Meadowbrook Club, the prisoner and the detectives, turned out to search the woods. An admiring troop of villagers was not lacking to the opera bouffe effect. Mrs. Edward Kenyon Stowe is an absolutely fear- : green melton cloth. This is worn in winter, and often will be found useful in summer as well, although special riding costumes are designed for warm weather. The skirt is close-fitting and just touches the ground when the wearer is standing, excepting the side shaped to the knee over the pommel. With this skirt are usually worn stockinets or equestrian tights. Some women. however, favor cloth knickerbockers with box cloth cuffs which meet the high laced boots. The knickerbockers are always worn when hunting, but are usually @isearded in favor of the stockinets when rides of less exertion are planned. The choice of the-bodice usually depends upon the beauty of the figure of the woman who wears it. The better the figure the more close-fitting the bodice or coat. Or- dinarily a cutaway coat is worn, the length of which is even with the saddle. Three buttons are usually used, although if a particularily close fit is desired the coat is fastened with five buttons. The three-button cutaway opens over a waistcoat of English covert cloth, which either matches the habit in color or is of tan. The hat In the winter should be the regula- tion high silk one, but in spring and summer the derby is preferred by the ardent devotees of following the hounds. With the waistcoat are worn a high stock and Ascot tie, says with a small pin. The gloves should be of heavy\ kid, in tan, mouse color or white. White gloves are used with biue, green or black habits; mouse colored gloves are worn only with black costumes, and tan gloves with those “the in detail THOMAS HITCHCOCK ; : tess rider and seldom misses a meet. — ticularly interesting in view of her h social position.
