Instead of organizing State m companies the new officers will organize companies in response to the call ani pre- pare them as quickly as possible for service. Phe scope_of the examination is fixed by State law of 1897, They will be ex- ! 18d in the history of the United States English grammar, the geotraphy of the country and of Missouri. and the schools of the soldier, company and battalion. A list of 100 questions has been prepared by Maj. Edwards for the examination. The Board will submit the results of the ex- amination to the Governor, through the Adjutant-General. “It may and probably will recommend the appointment of the men considered best qualified. Physical condition as well as men- tal capacity, will: be considered. Other things being equal .ex-National Guardsmen will be given the preference over applicants who have had no practical experience, “This is only just,” said Maj. Edwards. ‘There are a good many ex-officers of the National Guard who have spent much money on their uniforms and on their com- panies and who, though retired, have kept thoroughly informed on changes in military tactics. These men have made sacrifices for the State. They have received no reward Save the satisfaction and pleasure which they derived from soldiering. They are the fittest men for the work now in hand and they are entitled to the appointments. “A number of these have already made application. In all about 60 applications ave been made. Maj. Edward expects there will be at least a hundred enter the examinations. Nobody-is barred. Under the President’s second call the quota of men to be furnished by Missouri is 3200. It is probable that one complete regiment will be organized tn St. Louis “T believe it can be done tn a week.” said Maj. Edwards. “It may take ten days but certaenly not longer. The majority of the men will probably be ex-guardsmen. There are a great many of these in the city who would gladly have gone at the first call if there had been need of them. “If the new regiment had been formed before the call came the State would have equipped them. As it is the Government ADMIRAL. GEORGE DEWEY: JUMPED FROM A FERRY BOAT. Edward Donahue, an Engineer, Out of Work and Despondent. The body of Edward Donahue, engineer, late of 1414 Cass avenue, lies on a slab at the Morgue. Donahue jumped from the ferryboat Alonzo C. Church into the river, at the foot of Carr street, Sunday morning. Mrs, Donahue said, Monday: “My hus- band has been despondent for some time, because he could not find employment.

There may be a second and a third call. remain here until they are filled, Gen, Bell has not yet received official notification of the second call, but he is in receipt of a communication from Washing- ton which is puzzling him sorely. The tele- gram is from the War Department, and in. structs him to enlist 1702 additional] men to fill tg the maxknum the Missouri com- anies now in camp at Chickamauga and alls Church. Gen. Bell says he cannot understand the order. He wired at once for an explana tion, but has received no reply. He said Monday that he believed a second call would not be issued unt!! the 1702 were en- listed. The only possible explanation is that the Government means to recruit the volunteer companies to the footing of reg- ular companies, namely, 100 men and four officers. As now constituted thev consist of mw) men and four officers. If this Fr) the purpose, 12” addi- tional men will be required.

Schouquett was taken to his home, 711 North Fifteenth street, in an am- bulance, a not seen him since Sunday morning, when he went with me to St. Laurence O’Toole’s Church. Leaving there he said he was going to the river.”’ Disappearance of the Middle Class Statistics show the gradual disappear- ance of the middle class in Genmany. They are being driven out of business and, ceas- ing to be their own masters, become em- loyes. Prussian statistics, recently pub- lished, show that, while the number 0 thoee industrial and trade establishments operated with assistants has increased since 1882 from 636,79 to 791,688, or A per cent., and while the number of hands employed in them ‘has increased froen 8,242,931 to 4,- 909,947, or 51 per cent., the number of those enterprises operated by one person alone has decreased 6 per cent., absolutely, and much more relatively since 1882. ———— —— eee James Hussey—lI’ve been pinched more than 200 times, mostly for “idling’’ and ‘“‘fre- | quenting.”” The cop- pers have got it in for me and they get mein ‘“pick-ups’’ once , + ' that I would subordinate everything to the l never been convicted issourt | in a@ while, but I’ve except for disturb:ng the peace. a i i ie i i own. country.

The ob: -to street improvements in the present charter is the provision limiting special taxes for this purpose to 25 per cent of the value of the assessed property. If the improve- ments cost more than this 25 per cent the remainder must be lien on the property payable in installments. But the general fund has been in a state of exhaustion for years'and hence street improvements have lagged. To get rid of this obstacle the charter amendments provide that all the cost of improvements shall be levied upon property in the benefit district fixed by the Board of Public Improvements. To make the burden easier the special taxes will be-a lien on the property payable in instalmnts. In the end, however, the property owners must pay the bills. The installment plan merely gilds the pill. It is a question whether or not the general fund might not bear some of the burden of public improvements, and there is hardly room for question that if the city government had been economically and wisely administered there would have been ample funds in the city treasury to defray the city’s part of the cost of improvements, - After all, therefore, the stoppage of improvements is due to extravagance in public expenditures and the reckless granting of public franchises. So much has been taken for spoils that nothing has been left for necessaries. Under the proposed charter amendments all of the general funds will be available for spoils, and all of the citizens’ prop- erty liable to taxation for improvements. Citizens must consider whether or not they want the rescue of public plunderers by subjecting their property to unlimited taxation. Corruption in the Board of Publie Im- provements.and other branches of the city government may at any time turn public improvement bills into a contractors’ and ; , : ms spoilsmen’s raid aj ‘ivate property.

The farmer who shouted to the passing Missouri troops, “Give ‘em ——, boys, I'm a-coming next call!" had the American fdea pretty well in his head, though his expression of it may have been a little inelegant. The son of a distinguished dad so often doesn’t come anywhere near his father’s record that any appointing power is in duty bound to consider such differences. A great battle might be lost through’ the ittcompetence of a single son of his papa.

The Government refuses to ac- cept the colored, hence our quota should be determined on the basis of the white pop- ulation.

Heretofore the limit of cost was somewhat larger, asa it included armor, the navy always building its own guns.

This morning The Cincinnatis. who have been leading the rest so ensily, will have their real Fpeed tested on thm tour. On this trip they play four games each in Brook- yn, New York and Boston. Judging by the performance of teams in the West, the Cincinnatis should encounter trouble Only in Boston. New York and Brooklyn have not shown first-class form in any of their games in the ‘West, and it is not reasonable to suppose that they will im- rove in one jump when they reach home. raken In {ts entirety and based on the form rFhown by all the Eastern teams in the West, the ‘“‘wooll¥y boys’’ ought not to re- turn home ehy on the scalps of Eastern pale-faces. these secause Kid Gleason had a bad day at short in one of the games the New Yorks played at Cincinnatt and made an error. rome mean-epirited person at.once starte the report that the Kid was under the in- fluence of intoxicants. From this a report grew that Gleason was so drunk that he could not field his position. Nothing was further from the truth. If Gleason was drunk he got in that condition drinking but- termilk, as he never touches anything stronger. The friends of Jack Crooks claim that the members of the St. Louis Club hailing from Philadelphia, Taylor, Cross, Clements and Carsey have entered into a combination to force Crooks off second base in the interest of Carsey. Crooks has been under the weather ever since the season opened and — now is troubled with a lame ankle. iis friends say that that is the reason he has batted so poorly and made such a poor showing’ since the season opened. Last season in the Western League, Crooks had a batting average of .302 and flelding aver- age of .951. In fle.ding in the Western League in fact he was second among the firat basemen, the man leading him, Pick- ett, playing -but 389 games to Jack’s 131. These figures are in strange contrast to Crooks’ present record of .167 at bat. al- though his flelding averuge of .969 is a good one and shows that he is fielding as well us the best of them.

Foucon is daily riding in improved form and Tip Leigh appears to have suc- ceeded to the saddle quitted by his brother, Frank Leigh. Leo Planter’s victory in the Kindergarten was as great a surprise to Will Darden, his owner, as it was to the betting public gen- erally. The day that Horseshoe Tobacco ‘beat Trombone someone asked Darden whai chance Leo Planter had to win the Kin- dergarten. “I do not even Know .that Leo Planter will start,”’ replied his owner, ‘‘but for goodness sake don’t even mention his name. I do not want my friends to lose their money on my colt.”’ Leo Planter won in handy style. and Darden was warmly congratulated on pulling down. his first stake thie season. Frank Carr, the loca] bookmaker, was the only winner in town on Ornament in Sat- urday’s Brooklyn handicap. Carr, a couple of months ago, secured 56 to 1 against the son of Imp. Order from the New York book- making firm of Goodwin Brothers. The commission firm laid Carr $576 to $115 and now that he has won they insist he must pay a 10 per cent commission to them. Carr is kicking, but as the Goodwins have got possession of the stuff it looks as if Carr will have to accept the situation. last Saturday can be thrown out. He got all the worst of the start, which in a five furlong race means a whole lot, was cut off on the round into the stretch and was taken into the deepeet Jo- ing. Fen Bramble will beat Leo Plante any old time they meet, Ben Bramble’s race The Omaha Fair and Racing Assoc‘tation have decided to give a 15 day running meet- ing commencing Aug. 15. This is one of the most substantial associations in the west and the fact of their giving a running meet- ing in addition to the great trotting meet- ing will be a great help to racing in the West. They ‘ave one of the most beautiful mile racks in the country. It is owned and the meeting will be run by the bus:ness men of Omaha. It will be made a soclety event as it should be and so conducted as to make it a permanent feature in the future. The prizes will average $110 per day. ; All of the above information comes from ¢ lem Creveling of St. Louls who_is at present régistered at the Grand Pacific Hotel, Chicago. Although Mr. Creveling does not say so in the letter, he is probably inter- ested personally in the meeting he writes about, either as starter or presiding judge.

The two great riders simply ignore each other’s presence. Caught on the Fly. The Browns play Washington to-day. Crooks’ ankle is still in bad shape. St. Louis is crowding Louisville for an exchange of places. The Browns are a badly crippled team at present, McKean of the Clevelands is ill. Tebeau is playing short field in his place. How ths Giants miss Davis. With Davis back at short and Gleason playing his regu- lar position, the Giants will not be so easy. Wrigley of Washington is called the “mid- way.’ This should be pleasant or plisance at least. Warner has the knack of shooting the ball to the bases, making it extremely dang¥r- ous for baserunners to venture off the bag. Elmer Smith knows. Tom Burns will hold Thornton. his left- hander, who is too rare a batsman to be sold or cast adrift. Resides, the big fellow is improvig in control, Manager Selee of the Bostons says it is a little early to make predictions about the probable pennant winners, but he expects Cleveland to be in at the finish. Since Lange and Dehien have been re- postediy put out of the game Manager turns has promised to fine any of the Orphans who are benched for unreasonable kicking. The Welshman Arrives. Tom Linton, the Welshman, who {is now in this country with the intention of meet- ing all comers on the bicycle track durin the ooming outdoor season on the Nationa Track ‘Team Association, has defeated most of Kurope’s best men, including Michael, Bure), Bouhours, Bauge, Jaocque- lin, Lesna and Stocks, Linton says that his best distance {s © miles.

It looks as though Tommy wouid be up against it when he meets McPartland, The latter was never In finer shape, and even at his worst he is a good fighter. Just now the Kid is being trained by Casper Leon at Coney Island. In a ,jetter Leon says: “I want you to get a good line on MePartland,. as he is the coming champk n at the L.ghtweight limit, and 1 do not think that Lavigne is very anxious to take ine ‘Kid’ on. At any rate the ‘Kid’ will be a surprise to the Western folks, and Tracey is just the man to draw him oiit.

Choynski is not over coniident. but he belfeves, with many others that have doubted McCoy’s ability, that he has more than an even chance. Both men are clever, and compare well in hitting ability, strength and weight. John J. Quinn of Pittsburg received a telegram from Warren Lewis of the Greater New York Athletic Club yester- dav asking if Tom Sharkey would agree to box Gus Ruhiin for a purse of $7590 next month, the winner to take 65 and the ioser 35 per cent of the tpurse. Quinn at once wired Sharkey, any the latter revHed that he was quite wing to accept the offer, ‘but he desired that the winner get 75 per cent of the purse. if Billy Madden, the manager of Ruhlin, will not agree to a 75 and 25 per cent divide, Sharkey will consent to the 65 per cent ratio. The contest.is sure to be a great one. Sharkey will leave for the Kast at once. MUCKENFUSS AND TOMMY BURNS They Were Two of the Judges at Last Night’s Cakewalk.

Mr. Bader will be the new chainman of the Precinct Committee, and Charles B. Carroll will probably be superceded as secretary by Andy Hunt. FOUND DEAD ON THE TRACK. An Unidentified Man’s Skull Smashed, Probably by a Train. An unidentified man was found dead beside the Louisville and Nashville rali- road track half a mile beyond the Branden- berger mine near Bellevitie early Monday morning. His head was s0 completely crushed that it cold not be told what his features had been 1.ke, The body wag found by a man employed by atfarmer named Cass, who iives east of Belleville. It was lying in such a position that it might have been struck by a train, but as there were no other bruises about the body and no report was made ff train- men of having struck a man, it is thougnt possible to have been a murder. There was nothing in the pockets to give a clew to the identity of the man, He carried a few cigars in his inside coat pocket. He was dressed more like a farm hand than @ tramp. He wes apparently young. Neither the man who found it nor any- body could identify it. Coroner Schildroth of BellevHle Was notified. He directed Gundlach & Co, to send out for the body. It was brought to the undertaking rooms of the company, where the inquest will be held. LIGHTNING NEARLY GOT HIM. Casper Yoch Rendered Unconscious and a Mule Close By Killed.

Young Italiau took @ spade and began digging a trench that would turn the water away from his place end turn it toward Mazzole’s. The Mazzoles, -Feter wand Leo, took a spade and went to whére young Itallau was digging. His mother was watching him work. The Mazzoles objected to the boy proceeding and a quarrel ensued. One of the Mazzoles struck Italiau with a spade. Mrs. Italiau ran to her son’s rescue and she was knocked down with a spade wielded by Peter Mazzole. Italiau ran to aid his mother and re- eelved several blows with the spade. He wrested the implement from Peter’s hands and was going to use it as a club when Leo Mazzole drew a Knife and sprang at the youtn. He plunged the knife three times in the boy’s abdomen. The blade penetrated the cavity each time and severed several of the intestines. The boy fell to the ground, bleeding pro- fusely. The Mazzole brothers, realizing the seriousness of the affair, fled, and have not yet been captured. Italiau and his mother were removed to the City Hospital. Dr. Sutter performed laparotomy on the boy, but he says there is slight chance for his recovery.

UNUSUAL ACT OF COURAGE. “Lee Threw Himself on a Fender and Pushed the Girl Along the Rails in Front of the Car. A typical village blacksmith is Richard Lee, Assistant Supervisor of Bast St. Louis. He is strong and brave, simple-hearted, modest and a real hero. Richard Lee performed an act of heroism Sunday as great as that of any in latter- day history, for he offered his life to save that of another. That he ‘won both is due to his stout arms, cool head and calm cour- age, Sunday morning Lee was standing with a crowd on the East Side listening with otherg to the demonstrations of a Salvation Army drum corps. The little daughter of W. O. Thomas was on the fringe of the throng bordering the eleotric railway tracks. The child had lis- tened and watched intently until in her eagerness she determined to get nearer the music by crossing the double line of rail- way. Moving close to the radls she let north-bound car go by and then darted for- ward just as a south-bound car appeared. The child was caught by the fender of the south-bound car, but to the horror of the crowd her body bounded off .to the rails, If Richard Lee had hesitated a moment little Miss Thomas would have been crushed to death. But Richard Lee was not of the stuff that hesitates when a duty is to be performed, however per.lous., He threw himeelf forward and fell face downward on the fender. Throwing out his right arm forward he caught the child's arm and pushed her in front of the car along the smooth rails. It took fron muscle and a grip of steel and a lion's heart to succeed in such an undertaking as that but Richard Lee succeeded because he hac ail of those attributea. The motorman of course was busy dur- ing that awful] half minute of time and the oar stopped in an incredibly short dis- tancé lee jumped from the fender, and handed back to life and gladness the little | daughter of W. OO. Thomas. And Mr. | Thomas thanked Richard Lee many times that day and the admiring crowds jotned in cheers and shouts of commendation, THE WOUND REOPENED.

MURDER OF A YOUNG WOMAN THE CAUSE. JAIL DOOR BROKEN DOWN AND THE SHERIFF OVER- POWERED. BODIES LEFT IN AIR, RIDDLED WITH BULLETS. Men Insisted on Their Innocence to the Last Moment, but the Lynchers Could Not Be Quieted Long Enough for Them to Pray. CHARLOTTS, N. C., May 30.—Miss Em- ma Hartsell, daughter of Mr. Samuel Hart- sell, who lives four miles from Concord, was found dead in her father’s home yes- terday afternoon. She had been outraged and her throat was cut from ear to ear. The young woman was of a respectable family and the news spread rapidly. In a short time large bodies of both town and country people had gathered and in an hour or two two suspects, Joe Kiser, aged 2%, and Tom Johnson, aged 2, both colored, were arrested. The Sheriff man- aged to get them safely to jail The prisoners were placed in the cage, the stronghold of the jail, and the Sheriff and other officers stood guard at the foot of the stairs. They did all they could to prevent the jail from being forced, but as they looked out upon a sea of determined, angry faces they realized that nothing but the blood of the guilty would satisfy them. It was 9:50 last night when the mob broke down the jail door. The Sheriff and depu- ties were overpowered, and the crowd rushed up the stairs toward the cell of the doomed men. ‘Mhe lock ~.was broken, the door opened and the prigoners hauled forth. By the uncertain light of a lantern the mob carried its victims out. The Sheriff saw that resistance was useless, and he made no effort to frustrate the work of vengeance. The men were taken to a point three miles out of town. They were remark- ably cool. They protested their innocence all the way. Rev. Mr. Alexander, pastor of the Presbyterian Church, walked by their side, talking to them, and trying to minister to them spiritually. When the place selected for the lynching was reached a halt was made. Mr. Alexander tried to silence the crowd, so he could pray for the doomed men. The crowd could not be quieted, go he prayed while the crowd continued its excited talk. The men were asked if they had any parting words to speak. They said they were not guilty, and that was all. A tree was found on which were two limbs, about three feet apart. Over these the ropes were thrown. The men were mounted on two boxes about two feet high. The noose was ‘adjusted about each man’s neck, ‘the box: removed and the bodies a ye ew minutes after the drop shots were fired at the bodies, riddling them with bul- lets. The doctors who were present pro- nounced the men dead in 13 minutes. Their bodies were left hanging. They will be removed some time to-day. PERSONAL MENTION. F. F.

Manager Salisbury’s programme at the Columbia this week is a reminder of the old jingle about la bride’s wedding dress containing something old and something new. The new predominates as it should do, and it is new aside from being a change from last week’s bill. Several of the acts are given their first’ performance in St. Louis. The bést\number on the pro- gramme is ‘The Undeveloped Bud,’’ pre- sented by Charles Dickson, who Is assisted apy ‘Misses Grace George and Enge] Sum- er and Gerald Griffin. The sketch deals with the old subject of a son who weds without consulting his father, though un- knowingly he marries the identical girl the old gentleman has arranged he should make his wife. Played by a less intelligent light comedian than Mr. Dickson to a less finished foll than Mr. Griffin, as the grim father, ‘““The Undeveloped Bud” would very likely fail to bloom through a frost bite. But it is made entertaining, hilariously so, in fact, by Mr. Dickson. whose metheds and personalitv theater-goers will remember from “‘Incog,” the farce in which he starred and from his work when a ms: mber of the Lyceum Stock company.

The only point one has to find fault with in the new act is that neither Mr. Hamen nor Miss Fuller sings a note or dances A step Their song and dance medley was the re- deeming feature of their old sketch and it is missed in the new one. They can sing and they can dance, especially dance and though vaudeville may be crowded with recrults from the legitimate and comedy fields there are few more graceful dancers than Mr. Hallen and his wife. Other clever members on the ColumMa Eecerasame are the Putnam sisters who ance and sing well; the Ben Mowatt trio of lub swingers; Maxwel) and Simpson in ngeniously fllustrated songs and radbury and Roy musical trio.

Bry- ant and Saville did one of the funniest and | brightest musical mokes turns seen on the | local stage for a long tfme. The bill will be repeated all tha week, with matinees Wednesday and Saturday. There was not standing room in theeécars running to the Suburban Garden yesterday afternoon and evening because of 'the al- tractions offered on Messrs. Gumpertz & Januopoulo’s summer stage. The clever work of all the artists in the minstrel first part, diversified by some_ remarkably clever tumbling by Hasson Ben Ali and his aggregation of tumbi{nge Arabs. made up @ meritorious show. With a few ex- ceptions the minstrel qoute are new, and the gongs are good. E. M. Hall made a decided hit with the Sunday crowds and was recalled several times. All through the performance the war is played as a feature, and that !s a drawing card with the American public just now. A number upon the Suburban programme not to be overlooked is the singing of M. Albert Gullle. The opening at Kliondyke Park yester- ay was successful from every standpoint. hy 2000 people journeyed to the pleasure round in the afternoon to see y wag the Fridge diver, jump from a 100 foot tower into three and a half eet of water in a tank. The feat wds te Sage ac- complished and elicited much applause, Speedy repeated his performance in the evening, following an interesting ro- gramme of gp together with the comedy sketch entitled, “Hash,” written and composed by Ernest Rivarz, formerly assoctated with the St. Louis Choral Sym- phony Society. Mr. Rivarz was splendidly supported by John Sears, Miss Harriet Raeder and Miss Teckla Lee. The epecialties included Hal comedian: Miller & Borgett in songs, Little Carrie Franklin, Clayton, fllustrated in negro melodies and dance, and Tuttle and Adams cake walkers and wing dancers. The Southern Electric Paviflign was well patronized at both performances yesterday, ‘My Awful Dad,” the comedy presented by the Pavliilion tock Company, com- osed mainly, by the way, of the members rom the Imperial Theater Stock Company of last season, was well played, Mr. Burn- ham winning new honors for himself in the title role. The Fillis dog circus is an added vaudeville attraction. Immense crowds attended the perform- ances at Koerner’s Park Theater og Baturday and Sunday nights. Lew Haw- kins meade the hit of the evening. Presl- of the Hrowns and Tomy Burne and dent Muckenfuss Johnny Schorr, , them which made all hands roar. ‘and Morrissey “Skeets” Martin, the jockey, were in the boxes and Hawkins sang a song about Hadley in their musical act, Sherman Kherns and Cole, Weich and Francis, Ethelia Levey and Ricarde were given hearty receptions. Another splendid programme is promised for every night this week. A farewell testimonial benefit to Ralph Stuart, leading man at Hopkins’ Opera House, will reopen the doors of that popu- lar playhouse to-morrow. Departing from the usual custom of benefits given heretofore to members of this company the bill for afternoon and evening will be composed of vaudeville numbers and two one-act plays from the pens of Mr. Stuart and Dudiey Acton Bragdon, entitled, fee spectively, “Appomattox’ and “The Peace Maker.” Mr. Stuart's many friends in the vaue deville profession have volunteered thelr services to make his benefit the success it deserves to be, notable among whom are Hailen and Fuller, Lew Hawkins, La Petite Constance, the Hexels, the Oriental Mandolin and Guitar Company, and Thomas Keogh, comedian of the Hopkins’ Stock Company. Mr. Keogh will give for the first time in St. Louls his eccentri song and dance specialty. Mr. Stuart wi be assisted in the presentation of his two plays by members of the stock compayy and Miss Theresa Smith of this city. Miss Carrie~ Lamont, the clever . and popular soubrette of the Hopkins’ Theatre Stock Company, has been tendered a benefit by the managi ment. It will be given at the theatre Thursday afternoon and evening June 2 The programme will ‘be a varied one, and several of the best vaudeville verformers in the city willl assist. Messe tuart and Mackley of the company W make their final appearance of the season with Miss Lamont. Jerome's clever one-act comedy “‘BRarbara”™’ will be given with Ms Eloise French in the title role, assist by Mr. Stuart, Mr. Trohoff and Miss Lae mont; and the “Happy Patr’’ will be p ented by Miss — Terry and Gardner Crane. A feature will be Gabriel Pollock who makes beautiful tures by smoking a large plate, and on thie occasion he will picture the Maine before and after the exrosion.
