NO ROOM TO PASS, Women Met on a Narrow Walk and Fought. This is a tale of life in the suburbs where mud and narrow board sidewalks abound. Miss Lena Loag and Mrs. Coughlin met on the narrow plank that serves as a side- | walk at Second street and Talcott avenue. There was not roem for them to pass each other One of them had to step into the mud. “Which one?’ was the question, The women argued for awhile. Each wore new shoes and had an abhorence of mud, The argument developed into a quar- rel and the quarrel led to a fight. Miss Loag has an ugly wound on her head which she says was inflicted by Mrs. Coughlin. No arrests were made, but Miss Loag has declared her intention to prosecute, and Col. Dick Johnson, Assistant Prosecuting Attorney, informed her that he would issue a warrant if the proper information is filed with him, Miss Loag did not know Mrs. Coughlin’s first name, and Col, John- son sa.d he would have to have it before he could issue the warrant. “Don’t you believe I will ask her first name,’’ snapped Miss Loag. “Then get a policeman to .find out for you,”’ said Col.

Kratz, who is serving in the Military Hospital at that place, where she has been since last July. She is an immune and a graduate of St. Luke’s Hospital, this city. The letter is written to r. Anita New- combe McGee, acting assistant-surgeon, ington. The following is an extract: I wrote to you shortly after arriving here. We were then located at the “‘Genera]l Field Hlospital’’ in charge of Maj. Robinson, and, as you no doubt know, the different ‘‘fleld hos- pitals’’ have combined and have taken pos- session of the hospital which was until recently occupled by the sick Spanish soldiers: It is a large, old-fashioned, airy building, with large Windows in each ward, so we have plenty of light and air, which is so necessary in all hos- pitals. It is situated on a bill overlooking San- tlago Bay and we can see Morro Castle off in the distance with the gunken ships in the har- bor and with the mountains in the background and the Cuban sun sinking to rest at night, it is indeed a beautiful picture. Now about our work here among the poor soldier boys Well, everything is being done for them within reason, in spite of the many reports to the contrary, as we see In the daily papers, and T am sure there is no reom for complaints at this end. They have eggs at the rate of 10 cents per egg, soups, fresh meat, in fact, they have everything the island affords for their benefit and comfort, and they have comfortable cots and plenty of clean linen, ete., and I really think, taking the circumstances into consideration, that they are treated as well as they possibly could be.

After trying two doc- tors and obtaining no relief I began to get advertised remedies, but my condition continued to grow worse right along.

The Bosses Are Trying to Injure the Independent Ticket. It is almost certain now that the Repub- lican candidates who were named on the independent ticket will withdraw from the latter as soon as it is filed. They will do so at the dictat'on of the Republican bosses who nominated them. The scheme of the bosses is to get all the candidates together and have them withdraw in a body,- with the idea that euch a course will have more effect than they withdraw separately. The idea of bosses, of course, is that such action would work to the discredit of the inde- pendent ticket. Dr. Bull’s Cough Syrup cannot be excelled in curing cold and cough. 23 cts. Kansas City.

Why should a street car corporation be allowed to injure a citizen's property without recourse? The third parallel lines demanded by the Lindell Company are not needed by the community and their construction will be equivalent to the forcible abstraction of several thousands of dollars from the pockets of private citizens without con- sideration. A street car line along a city street is very different from a Similar line along a country road. The car line on the country road invariably helps property Values. Such a line is always welcome. But a street car line within a block or two of a parallel line to another department. On his refusal to accept the transfer, the department discharged him from the service for in- subordination. If a civil servant can be transferred from one department to another of lower grade and salary by his superior, the law does not reform very effectually. Reduction is equivalent to dismissal or can be made so, for a chief clerk or private sec- retary at a salary of $2500 a year could hardly be expected to accept a transfer involving a reduction of salary to $1000. If the department decision in this case is to stand, the civil service law will have to be'‘overhauled, if it is to accomplish the purpose of its framers. ————_#0-0-— Live romances of live people; Missourl romances; thrilling romances; something ‘to thrill the mind and move the heart, in to-morrow’s Sunday Post-Dispatch.

It is a desperate expedient and probably would not be re- sorted to if conditions were not desperate. In 1881 the Administration of President Arthur tried to dic- tate to the New York Republicans and Mr. Folger, Secretary of the Treasury, was set up as a candidate for the governor- ship. The result was an overwhelming defeat, largely due to resentment at what was thought to be an unwarranted inter- ference, and the election of Grover Cleveland. It will be re- membered that for many years thereafter Mr. Cleveland made things very interesting for the grand old party. If President McKinley interferes this year he will need all his real and manufactured prestige to counteract the natural repugnance of the party to anything which savors of dicta- tion from Washington. With the State of New Jersey granting a charter to every greedy combination that asks for one and the State of Ver- mont inviting to its soil the millionaires who are shifting the burdens of taxation to¢he poor, are we quite in a condition to teach/good government to the benighted people of our recently acquired territory? - i i No umpire is needed to settle the dispute between the United States and Spain.

The story of RBlanco’s plot to set up a Government of his own in Cuba and declare independence of Spain is probably false, but it is in keeping with Spanish methods, and illustrates Spanish character. The only object of the Spaniard since the voyage of Colum- bus has been to enrich himself out of the enormous colonial wealth of the kingdom. Pizzato in Peru, Cortes in Mexico and De Soto in Florida all spent their lives looking for gold, and their successors have no less industriously sought to use their public trust for private profit. Therefore Spain has failed as a colonizing power. Therefore she has failed in her home government. The notion of public duty seems to be absent or is only elementary.

My wife is a talented and handsome wo- man, and we have always lived harmoniously and rather happily together, but for five years I have been depressed because of a relationship with & woman who loves me dearly and to whom I am It is evident the voice of conscience little louder in most men. exceedingly attached. This depression is not the result of any injustice I have done my wife, but father assumes a moral phase which is at once convicting and perplexing. She was once disloyal to me in the years e by, but did not irreconcliably err, and I forgave her and since that time she has been devoted, pe ee | and noble and I believe and trust her. Yet I have constantly felt within my soul a sense of unrest; indeed, it was that which first caused me to turn my eyes on a woman not my wife and complete an error that would never have occurred but for it. [I am not an abandoned man in the sense that that is usually understood; in fact, none but the one woman outside of my legal wife bas ever re- ceived from me a passing thought, and yet I feel that even now I cannot justify, yet do justify, my attitude. Can the God of the universe find room for a human paradox like this? Can He who fashioned me once as pure as morning dew find reconciliation for such a one, and at what cost? Both women are living on my heart’s blood. To forsake one for the other would mean a sacrifice of human lift or lives and leave upon my conscience a stain deeper and darker than that which now impairs its perfection. lave you any suggestion ta make to such a e speaks a this man's ear than it does to A great many men have beard the same voice and have silenced it. one who writes honestly and earnestly? Can you point out a way that is better and best? If 60, perhaps it may lift the veil that now obscures AN OUTCAST. It of conscience is evident that the voice Gives Some Wholesome Advice to Those “Who Are Entangled In Im- proper Love Relations speaks a little louder in this than it does to most of his sex. A great many men similarly situated have heard this Same vo.ce and have silenced it. The passions speak louder than the con- science tO most men, and yet in the depths of even a depraved man’s heart there is a queer longing to do right and to be honest. It is plain to see that my correspondent is not a happy man. He is making that old useless effort referred to in child lore of Keeping his cake and eating it, too It never succeeds. When a man ts not happy in doling wron why does he not make the experiment oO doing right for a while? To be unhappy and well-behhaved is more desirable than ill be- man’s ear mavior with the same amount of unhappi- ess. It is curious to Hsten to a man’s reason- ing in these matters. He assists a woman to stray, and then he says he cannot dis- continue his relations with her because it would “‘wrong her.’’ Here is a man who evidently loves his wife and who erred through pique or re- venge. He is infatuated with the other woman, but his best affections go to the wife. Whatever injury him in the past, he ought to t “even” after five years of intrigue another woman. Whether the other woman is single or married, a continuation of that friendship can only mean misery to her, Exposure or death will put an end to it eventually. Why not let the end come now? Why not tell her frankly that he is miserable in hie wife may have done hink himself with It is easier to find ten women who are ready to help a man into an entanglement that one who is ready to help him out. leading this double Hfe and appeal to the best in her to help him to do what is right? The highest phage of love is in renun- clation. If she is a woman worth his anx- fous thought she will help him to find a peaceful way out of his dilemma. If she is merely a selfish woman she will make the way a difficult one. A cynical Frenchman says: “The woman we love is dangerous, but not so danger- ous as the woman who loves us; fortu- nately she never loves us!’’ This is witty but not true. ‘ The woman who realy doves a man in the full sense of the word is not ‘dan- gerous.’’ She is the one who is ready to sacrifice everything in life for his best in- such love Is rare. Ss easier to find ten women who are ready to help a man into an entanglement than one who is ready to help him out. Perhaps this may be the tenth woman. - Let the man talk with her frankly as he has written to me and find out. Of one thing he may be sure.

Of all the low down, contemptible, mean, ignorant and un-American men, the worst lhas been discovered. This mollusk has remained in his shell all these years, until the opportunity came for him to spit forth a jumble of words without sense, against one of the grandest of our American in- stitutions, the free “Liberry’’ as he calls it. It is evident from his letter that he ‘‘hates to read’ but if he would go to the Library, he might find in the juvenile de- partment some illustrated Mother Goose rhymes to interest him. The best sug- gestion to offer this oyster is that he should retreat into his shell and say noth- ing to the public until he can do so in at least readable English.

She ts troubled quite frequently with the snuffles, which makes her very restless. I have tried vaseline on ber nose with but little effect. Kindly advise me what to do, VERY ANXIOUS MOTHER.

It should be dipped off from the under milk, not poured. Dilute the milk about half with water for a baby tMree months old. The milk, of course, should be given warm, and with this mixture you should add a very small pinroh of table salt and enough lump sugar to slightly sweeten it. Please tell much water shall I WHILE RABY IS NURSING. Pleose advise how often a baby of one month should be nursed and about how long he should stay at the breast. My baby nurses from half an hour to one hour every time I nurse him, which is about every two hours. Should bis mouth be washed out every day? Do you approve of woman who is nursing eating fruit? MRS. #8. The baby should be nursed during the first six weeks about once in two hours from at least 6 o’clock in the morning un- til 10 or 11 at night. No healthy infant re- quires to be nursed through the night—that fs to say, from about 11 p. m. wntil about 5a. m. A very young baby may be trained to sleep as it should and thus procure the mother six hours of uninterrupted repose, which is of the very gravest importance for her health and strength.

THE NEW PIN ROLI—Just now needle- work as a fine art has revived, and the prettiest novelties make their appearance constantly. We all know that with the passing of the pin tray came the revival of the pincushion. The monotony of its old-time pillow form is relieved by the most decided departure possible in contour. The ‘ultra-smart pincushion is a roll that can be spanned between the thumb and first finger, but it can be lengthened in- definitely sometimes, reaching out the full limit of the dressing table Som right to left. It is of rich silk, delicately. em- broidered or handpainted and finished al! around with double or even triple frills of silk and lace. The veiling fad has invaded the pincushion ranks, and silk and satin covers are overlaid with dainty folds of silk muslin that frequently have profuse decorations of their own. A scarlet gatin cushion of:this kind has a mousseline de soie cover edged in lace and decorated with a handpainted rose and leaves of natural size. Delicate silks are draped in white net, run with narrow ribbons caught here and there with clusters of long looped bows. The full table length pincushion, which Is more a matter of ornament than of utility, is the central figure of a set, the smailer cushions preserving the general form of decoration. but ranging in size to very minute patterns devoted, by the way, to lit- tle ribbon pins. el LIMES AS A TONIC—Drink either lime- ade or the juice of a lime in a small cup- ful of unsweetened black coffee. This is also recommended for reducing super- fluous flesh. For lime squash put a little sugar in a glass, cover it with shaved ice, squeeze in the juice and pulp of a lime-— two if you like it very strong. Fill up the glass with club soda, stir and drink at once. This can be varied infinitely—you may put crushed strawberries or cherries, and more sugar with the ice; squeeze in your limes, put the glass in a toddy shaker and shake until the tice melts enough to make water unnecessary. Fresh cherries, seeded, or even their juice, make another agreeable variant. Or you may double the amount of sugar and ice, drinks limit whatever to the Spey a . ved ice an within the potentialities of sh limes. MUSTARD POULTICES.—To prevare this unpleasent necessary, mix two parts of linseed meal with one of mustard, make both into a thick paste by the addition of hot water, and spread the paste smoothly to a we tr of a quarter of an inch upon a plece of soft linen, cover the plaster with a thin strip of muslin, and apply on this side to the skin wherever requisite. To make a plaster successfully the in- gredients should be very smoothly mixed, so that lumps may not distress the patient and it should be applied warm, so that chill may be dvoided. FRUIT DRESSING FOR SHOES —The best dressing for black leather is orange juice. Take a slice or quarter of an orange and rub [t thoroughly all over the dhoe or boot and allow it to dry. Then brush brisk- ly with a soft brush until it shines like a looking glass. A most convenient dressing for:tan shoes is the Inside of a banana skin. This is rubbed well and evenly all over the shoe and removes all spots and dirt, as well as gives a fine polish, which last is brought out by using a flannel cloth for wiping dry and another clean flannel for polishing. A slice of lemon is also used as a tan leather dressing. DRESS WAIST LININGS.—Dresa waist linings can be kept wonderfully nice if you occasionally wipe them off with a cloth dampened with very weak household am- monia. Of course the shields should be frequently changed. TAMALES — MEXICAN STYLE.—Two ounds of beef, well chopped or ground; ry in one cup of beef lard, boil and re- move seeds of ten or eleven chill peppers; when soft ecrape off the tinaside, atir well in a cup, then add to the frying leaf ealt to taste. Secald one quart corn meal, salt, and add one and a quarter cups leaf lard mix well; cut and wash the ehucks a! i soak for three hours.

Place them In @ steamer and steam to boiling point for twe and fill up your glass with strong cold tea or mineral water.

Right on top the present meeting was to two weeks from next Saturday, later and official notice that, owing to the bottom having fallen out of the track, racing will be discontinued to-day. As a sort of coating to this bitter pill, the Condon crowd, which controls the In- diana jerichos as well as Harlem, have given out that a two-weeks meeting, com- mencing Oct. 28 will be pulled off at the Sheffield (Ind.) track. This departure on the part of the Har- lem people will probably result in the im- mediate shipment of the California con- tingent to San Francisgo and of a south- ern exodus of the bétter class horses which have no engagements at the Ingle- side and Oakland tracks. of the announcement that be continued In the two miles and a quarter Morris Park Handicap which will be the closing feature of the Westchester meeting to- day. Ben Holladay is asked to pack the crusher of 1388 pounds. This means a con- cession of 30 pounds to such a good colt as Sailor King and of 34 pounds to Ben Kder, the erstwhile rival of Ben Brush, but who has since graduated in the tim- ber-topping branch of the game. Ben oe mag is the best stayer and weight earrier in the country but his task this afternoon is of a herculean character. John W.

Bad Bill Eagan must be in a pitiable condition according to the following para- graph clipped from the Philadelphia Press, wherein it relates the experiences of Eli Shaw, the Camden boy recently acquitted of the charge of murdering his mother. Concerning Shaw's last night in jail the Press says: “Of his last night in jail he said he could not sleep much because of a certain, once fllustrions baseball player, Who is confined to the lower tier and has developed a splendid case of delirium tre- mens. Shaw went to sleep at 8 o'clock. but before midnight such cries as, ‘Score cards, peanuts, pretzels, apples and cigars, score cards,’ ‘Slide, [ tell you,’ ‘Whoa!’ ‘You're off,’ ‘Robber,’ and a score of others placed all slumber in the jail out of the question, The jury, too, complained of the noise.” It looks as if Tommy Burns got the best of the other managers who signed players from the Western League.

His Irish was up. Sloan is not the only one who believes that he was unfairly treated yesterday. Even the sporting correspondents of London papers are frank enough to that the delay at the start in the or the great Sapling Plate was an traordinary one. Tod says it was due solely to the unruliness of the English and that the stewards did not do their duty when they failed to reprimand them. Sloan’s mount was Lord Beresford’s My- akka, a rank favorite. But twenty-three minutes were wasted in getting away, and there had been several break-aways in which Sloan was well at the front. When the flag finally fell Myakka was (tired, and though he rode with all his arf, Tod was only able to make a dead heat of it race It was in the weighing-in room after the race that Tod let of wrath. He was not afraid to his opinion, and if the judges | had Drobiianastans and he a Lilliputian would have had at them just the same. After he had time to think the matter over Tod declared that he won the race by all the rules of fairness, and that the judges itn declaring it a dead heat had not dealt fairly and honestly by him. ; “T will not ride at Sandown again,” he said. Whether this meant a toning down of the ferocious threat to leave England altogether is a question which he would not answer. There are those who would not ery if he kept his threat. They are the professional bookmakers who have lost largely by his riding and the new-born habit of backing the rider rather than the ~ one and are doing everything In their power to keep it going. Tod's animadversions against the Judges to considerable local who are express been he , has opened the way animosity. The jockeys, 7 ous of him, are fomgnting discord. take it all in all, thi has been a black Friday for the American jockey. Yésterday’s Track Winners.

Killian are each conceded to have a great chance to secure the $100 piece of silver piate, which roes to the winner in this class. Messrs. jardy and Killian will, however. have some excellent talent arrayed against them and the judges probably will have to take considerable time in deciding to whom the premier place belongs. obstacles Col.

Blees is quite In love with his new purchase, Rex McDonald, and does not hesitate to say that in his opinion the handsome and perfectly gaited son of Rex Denmark will again demonstrate his superiority in the Coliseum arena by carrying off the $300 silver cup. Col. Blees will also bring Electalie, Harriman, Mabel Rex and Lady Squirrel as company for Rex McDonald.

KANSAS CITY, Mo., January~20th, 1898. - For nearly five years my sister, Mrs. T. H. Davis, was afflicted with cystitis and failed to find relief from physicians or their remedies. One bottle of Warner's Safe Kidney and Liver Cure afforded great benefit and the second bottle ef- fected complete recovery. My sister's suffering was so intense that it seemed unbearable, it being necessary at times to give hypodermic injections of morphine to afford temporary relief. I recommended it to sufferers from liver and kidney troubles as a blessing. JOHN R. LEWIS, M. D., 1990 E. 10th street. The profession and standing of the writer give much force to this letter. Dr. Lewis was born in Albemarle County, Vir- ginia, In 1831, and has lived in Missouri since he was five years old. He has practiced medicine in St. Joseph and Kansas City.

Per In the observation ward at the City Hos- pital is Martin Gorman, who is commonly known as “‘Crazy’’ Martin, He is*60 years old and was at one time a power in local building circles. He helped to construct no less than seven churches, a like number of schoolhouses and many large business structures in St. Louis. ’ The old Sacred Heart Convent in Caron- delet stands as a monument to his skill as a builder. Martin Gorman’s life story is replete with sadness. It is an endless chain of blasted hopes. In the flower of manhood, within a few days of marriage, he met with an ac- cident that unbalanced his mind. While at work on St. Lawrence O’Toole’s Church in 1870 he missed his balance and fell to the ground, The fall was probably 60 feet, and Gorman was picked up more dead than alive. After a long siege in the hospital he re- covered. But his mind was gone. The young woman to whom he was engaged was pros- trated with ‘grief. The engagement was de- chared off. Gorman had saved considerable money, but he spent it all roaming about from place to place. Soon he was given the ap- pellation of “Crazy Martin.” He has been confined in the asylum several times.

When physicians of the highest standing so unhesitatingly endorse a modern discovery which will certainly cure the most terrible diseases, does it not stand to reason that those of us who realize that we are slowly drifting into a state of decline; that our kidneys, liver or urinary organs are not what they should be, should avail ourselves of the benefits of so great a scientific discovery, which are placed so easily within our reach? eee —_— “THE CLEANER ’TIS, THE.COSIER ’TIS.” WHAT IS HOME WITHOUT THE BEST EQUIPPED ESTABLISHMENT Dies, Punchee Pneumatic Machines, etc. Repal resses, Machinery, Bngines, Motors and a!l other Machinery Only fret-clas work done.
