The Committee on Plans for the celebra- | tion of the centennial anniversary of me Louisiana purchase determined at a meet- ing held at the Noonday Club Tuesday to report to the people of St. Louisiana purchase can be best celebrated with a World’s Fa'r, and that, after ma- ture deliberation, they are convinced that euch a fair can be undertaken and success- fully held in St. The members of makes this very important recommendation Louis, @re among the foremost of the business men of St. Louis. They‘are Messrs. D. R. Francis, F. W. Lehman, Julius Pitzman, Willlam Taussig, William S. Evans, H. C. Terry, H. B. Potter, Frost, ives, John 5S. Enno Sander, R. teau and Prof. Waterhouse. Mr. Chouteau is the chairman of the com- Graham Pierre Chou- mittee, which was appointed out ofa citi- zens’ meeting held for the purpoée of ar- ranging a celebration of the Louisiana purchase. The committee has held several meetings, @nd gradually it has been drifting to the 7 determination that a World’s Fair was not only the feasible and proper thing to recom- mend, but that it was their duty as a body entrusted by the people with the task of ascertaining what, for the best interests of St. Louis and the West, should be done to celebrate the Purchase, to recommend the Fair with the sincere belief that it can be made a success and that in this way, and none other, can the memorable acquirement of the West and its wonderful development b® properly celebrated. It has not been an easy mAtter for the committee to decide upon this recommen- dation, for.they have fully appreciated their position and the significance of what they would report; the vast detail in prepara- tion, in maintenance and management of a great fair: the enormous sum of money necessary to make it a success, and the 6ources from which this money may be ex- pected to come. All these they have weighed carefully, and the deeper they delved the stronger became their convictions that the Fair was the thing. As a final recourse in summing up the things arguing for the Fair and against it they invited the co-directors.of the Colum- bia Fair at Chicago to comé to St. Louis and meet the committee, that it might have tht benefit of their experience and ad- vice. George F. Davis, the director-general of the World's Fair, made an address be- fore the committee. for fairs, and he believes that the Fair contemplated in St. Louls can be made a @reat success, In his address before the committee Mr. Davis discussed the Columbian Fair in its every phase. He told them what he knew Of the effects it had upon the business of the city before and during and after the Fair. Hie told them of the vast work of preparation, of maintenance and manage- ment, and he ended by assuring them that Chicago is to-day a bigger, better, richer and happler city Yor having had a World's Fatr. r The committeemen interrogated Mr. Davis upon every, *subject of which they had Coubts. Then they thought the matter.over, each man to himeelf, for 24 hours, and when they met again at the Noonday Club to de- termine what 6hould be their report, they were for the fair. This will be the report they wil! make Ro the people, and with that their labors in the premises will have ended. ble must then determine what they will do with this report—this belief of some of the foremost men of St. Louis that there should be given here in 1908 a great in- ternational exhibit in celebration of the purchase of Louisiana from France. The committee has confidence that the People will accept the recommendation en- thualastically. They have been led to this belief by what they have heard since the work of the committee began. These committeemen are satisfied there is nothing in the way of a great Fair at St. Louis in 1903. The Columbian Fair will have been at that'time a thing of 10 years past. The people will be ripe for another. The children who were too young to go to Chicago will have arrived at the age when they will be interested in fairs. The young people who saw the great Chi cago exhibit and were too young to ap Preciate it fully will hail joyously an op- portunity to see it again. “We would be giving,.”” says Mr. Lehman, @n enthuslastic fair man on the committee. “a fair for a new renerat.on of people, and the magnificence of the Chicago Fair wil! @o far from hurting us, only have spread the fambe of great American fairs and have The peo- He is an enthusiast, Louis that the) sa. ff “We are not afraid,” Mr. Lehman says, “that there would come with this fair or after it anyth'ng hurtful to St. Louis. There has been much talk of a distressing re‘c- tionary effect in Chicago after the Colum- bian Fair, but we find, after looking into this that anything in the way of a reaction which Chicago may have suffered in recent years has not been an after-clap from the Fair. The truth {is that Chicago profited immensely by the Fair, and she is a better and more vigorous city to-day because of it. What we see in a World’s Fair for St. | Louis in 1903 is only beneficial to the city. the committee which We believe it will direct to our city the at- tention of the whole world. We know it will bring here millions of visitors from all parts of the earth. We believe we can pre- pare here things so entertaining that they will always be glad they came. and we also believe, and firmly believe, that there is nothing attaching or pertaining to such a fair, either in the great labor it involves or the enormous sum of money it would need, to-which the people of St. Louis, so far as their help may be needed, are not equal, and to which.the whole West, so far as it shall be called upon, is not ready to &.ve us every aid. “We are certainly assuming much when we locate this fair at St. Louis. If it is made such an affair as we want it to be, it will not be our privilege to say where iit shall be held. We will want the assistance of the Government in making it a success, and Congress, of course, will say where it shall be held. But I merely say this to have it understood that we have not over- looked this phase of the subject, and not because we are worrying in the least that Congress would locate chase Fair anywhere but at St. Louis. We are first in every point of necessity and second only to New Orleans in point of historical interest among. the cities of the territory covered by the old Leuisiana dis- trict, and all the nation will be willing, we are sure, that the fair shall be held at St. Louis.”’ In its international phase the committee has discussed the fair thoroughly, and their belief is that the whole world will partici- pate in the affair. There have been some suggestions that the Paris Exposition in 1900 might have the effect of running fairs in too rapid success'on for the world at large, but the committee does not antici- pate that there will be any lessening of in- ternational interest in the exposition be- cause of this or any refusal upon the part of other nations to heartily participate in the St. Louis Fair. The sentiment of the people of St. Louis upon the subject is necessarily a matter in which the committee has taken deepest interest. They believe the people to be for the World’s Fair, and expect that this will be their verdict when a vote is taken upoh an appropriation by the city. are likewise confident that the people of the State of Missouri will want the Fair, and that there will be a liberal appropriation for it by the State. With these appropria- tions the nucleus of the immense fund to be needed will be begun, and it is likely a request for them will be the first under- taking of the promoters when the people of St. Louis shall have acquiesced in the suggestion of the committee and have or- ganized for the work to be done. The committeemen believe there is just about time enough to arrange a big fair— “not too little, nor too much,” as one of them says. There are four years in which to get ready, and there is a deal to do.

DEED WAS DONE WITH DELIBERATION. SHE SEATED HERSELF IN A CHAIR AND EVIDENTLY TOOK CAREFUL AIM. NO CAUSE HAS SO FAR BEEN ASCRIBED. To All Appearances the Young Woman Was Happily Wedded and She Had Given No Sign of Depression. Special to the Post-Dispatch. KANSAS CITY, Mo., Nov. 2.—Mrs. Mary Baehr, a bride of a week, wife of George W. Baehr, Secretary of the Kumpf Insur- ance Co., committed suicide at 6:30 o’clock last night at her home in Westport by shooting herself in the head with a 2- caliber revolver. When Mr. Baehr re- turned home last evening he was surprised to find the house dark. Lighting a lamp, he searched the house for his wife and was horror-stricken when he entered the bed- room and found her Hfeless body in a chair. The dead woman sfffl clutched in her right hand the weapon of destruction. The deed was deliberately planned. Mrs. Baehr sat down on a Chair facing a large mirror and placed the weapon to her right ear. The bullet did not pass through the head, but death evidently came to her instantly. Lying on the floor beside the bureau, in front of which Mrs. Baehr was seated, was a pasteboard box, from whith the revolver had been taken. The cause of the suicide is a mystery. Baehr left no letters and dropped no word as to her intentions, She had never been sick a day in her life. #«# When she was led to the altar one week ago by George Baehr, their friends said it was a union of happy hearts, and that theirs would be a life of sunshine, They had been sweethearts for years.

NEW YORK, Nov. 2.—Scandal piles upon scandal as the revelations concerning at- tempts to use Abner McKinley’s name and influence in obtaining Government con- tracts is unfolded. Thirty thousand dollars was to have been paid to parties in Washington for ‘“‘expedit- ing’’ the sale of three whalebacks to the Government and an additional $45,000 was to have been paid the lawyers who had fixed the deal. This $75,000 was to be ‘added to the true selling value of the boats. . Davis & Huber, of which firm Ernest Hu- ber has confessed he, as go-between, fre- quently consulted with Abner McKinley concerning Government contracts, and Bur- nett, Stayton & ‘Campbell, lawyers, were engineering the grab. Henry L. Burnett has publicly notified interested parties that he withdrew from the law firm on July 1, and the use of the firm’s name was al. The game was a simple one. 2 go- between arranged, matters first. He had _ this options on vessels, and then came the ‘dickerings through Stayton & Campbell. The most important feature of this case is the statement, made over the signature of the law firm that: a “Our Washington friends get the larger part of the commission so as to expedite the sale.’’ Who the Washington of the firm were is not stated. Was needed at once to expedite matters. The “deal’’ was on the ragged edge; a few days ‘and the “friends” combine would fade away; prompt Was lrecessary. The effort to sell the three whaleback steamers Colby, Bartlett and Thompson be- fan early in July. A go-between who was doing business with Col. Brown of Abner McKinley's law office and the Stayton & Campbell firm representing McKinley’s law Office started the ‘‘deal.’’ He went to the American Steel Barge Co. and saw an Officer of that corporation. “I believe I am able to sell some whale- backs to the Government, because the Gov- ernment is in need of boats to carry water, rovisions and as transperte,” said the go- etween. “It is not much use trying to do that. I don’t Know why, but the Government has already said they had no use for them. We could not 6ell them; I don't know why,” Was the answer. “T think I can sell them, because I can bring some influence to bear,’’ said the go- between. When the representative of the barge company asked who it was, the go-between replied that it was the law office of Abner McKinley. The representative of the barge company yielded and an option on the boats was taken at $140,000 each, with the under- standing that a commission of $75,000 would be paid the lawyers if the boats were pur- chased by the Government. This was‘on July 6. On July 7it was found that the contract would have to be rushed through. The Waéhington friends of Bur- nett, Stayton & Campbell received th:s news: “Necessary to use $30,000 for*immediate acceptance of this. You should wire, agree- ing to pay $30,000 to me here.” This was the urgent telegram sent from Washington to the law firm here . This was the information which the Stayton & Camp- bell firm put over the signature of the firm in a letter to Davis & Huber: “This business can be closed forthwith, but, as we explained to you yesterday, it is ubsolutely necessary that our Washington friends get the larger part of this commis- sion, so as to expedite the sale.” Then follows the proposition to have the M $170,000, the Thompson at $170,000. A letter offering to sell the Cate for these amounis was requested. but it was forcibly announced that a second letter should be sent the law firm stipulating that the sellers surrendered all over $140,000 each “st was secured. e net price of the three boat ras be $140,000 each, or $120,000 on the Ba ole y and the selling price to the Government transaction. the letter exposing the Which would have netted $75.000 to the promoters has been nailed to the Post-Dispatch for reproduction.

It seemed for.a time that Bratton wag exhibit'ng the boy rather than the horse, but Master Jack speedily disillusioned the audience’ upon the score by digging his little heels into the big bay’s sleek sides and -giving an ex- hibition of horsemanship which frequently provoked the crowd to applause. Once it seemed that the horee had taken the bit in his teeth and decided the boy should master him no longer, but there’ were fsharp commands in a childish voice and such savage tugging at the reins that the spirited bay soon did as he was bid. Mas- ter Jack won third premium in a big field with hie horse, and his success so delighted the crowd that it applauded unceas_ngly until he left the arena. There were other incidents tending to make the evening eventful. In the exhipj- tion of pacers Hardy and Bratton indulged in a little test of speed and there was an up- set, eliciting fearful exclamations from the arnph'theater. Hardy struck the west curve too hard, and, quick as a flash, his light rig overturned, throwing him out upon the tanbark. He was quick as the accident though and landed upon his feet without losing the reins or control of his horse. It was a pretty exhibition o! coolness, and the aud’‘ence applauded.

At the stalls of the Canadians the entrances are draped with the Canadian flag and the stars and Btripes, with pretty effect, and some of the Cannuck steeds exhibit many ribbons. The promenade continues to suffer with a desuetude that should not be, for its conception was clever and ’twere a pity if it is not to be used.

C., Nov. 2.—At Laurinburg the whites, clad in red shirts, to denote their hostility to negro domina- tion, held a rally yesterday. Before the speaking began a negro, who. had threat- ened to kill a young white man, and who had declared his purpose of burning the town, Was Waited upon by a delegation of armed white men, who, it is declared, proposed ta advise him to leave chis lo- Cality. The negro did not wait to receive the delegation, but-opened fire from the windows of his cabin. His fire was prompt- ly returned, and when the battle ended he had emptied his Winchester, both barrels of his shotgun, and nearly al) of the chambers of his revolver, while 38 bullets from the white men’s rifles had pierced him through and through. The house looked as if it had been through a bom- bardment. The ‘red shirt’? demonstration novel and picturesque spectacle. % After the speaking the ‘‘Red Shirt” yen gathered to the number of 500 and rode through the country for the purpose of showing the negroes that the whites are determined. Out upon the sandy roads the menacing recession moved, It strung out for nearly wo miles, and the brilliant shirting was visible for a long distance. At every cross- road, and especially when the procession reached the highway which led from the neighboring town to Maxton, little rivulets of red-shirted men joined the moying stream. The climax was reached, howeyer. when. after 10 miles had been traveled through {ine forests. cotton plantations and negro amlets, the procession found its way through the section of Laurinburg inhabit- ed exclusively by blacks. Here the yells became louder and more frequent, and the red-shirted man, with the banner labeled “White Supremacy,” dangled it in the faces of the negro men and women, who gathered at their cabin doors.

INCIDENTS INDICATING CHARACTER AND DISPOSI- TION OF THE MAN. AN ULTIMATUM TO JACKSON. -_—_—_o His Treatment of Men, and the Later Pleasures He Found in Camp- ing in the Woods. —_ Of the late editor and postmaster, Wil- liam Hyde, many interesting stories are told. They are recalled now by the made few intimate friends, had a large circle of admirers. One journalistic achievement which caused much praise to be bestowed on Col. Hyde for his enterprise was in forc- ing Claib Jackson in 1860 to take a position for or against Stephen A. Douglass. Hyde was then a young reporter and was de- tailed to. go to Northern Missouri on Jack- son's gubernatorial campaign tour. The candidate fought shy of the Douglass- Breckinridge issue. Hyde determined to draw him out, First he secured a relay of horses and stationed them along the route from the little town where Jackson was billed fo speak to the nearest telegraph office. Then he confronted the man he Was after: “Mr. Jacksan,” said he, “in your speech to-day, we desire that you announce your position definitely.’’ The candidate was angered at the blunt- ness of the young man’s statement. He declined to say what he would do? At 2 a’clock you will pablicly dome out for Stephen: A. Dougias oer the Missouri Republican will open up on you,” was ages s ultimatum. hat night he wags able te wire to his journal an elaborate declaration of Jack- son in fayor of Douglass. ht otters is is how Hyde was still an amateur sportsman he chanced one day to see a commotion in the water. He saw a black Spot above the surface. He had intended to shoot ducks only that day. His cart- ridges were stamped “D,’’ which he sup- posed stood for “duck.” They were put up by a Frenchman on Third street, 8t. Louis, with whom “D” stood for ‘‘deer.” The charge was an extra large one and Hyde did not know it. At any rate, as soon as he saw the black spot he turned loose, his barrel and the charge struck the otter squarely between the eyes. The sur- prised sportsman secured a boat and towed is catch ashore, then lifted it to his shoulders and started back for Camp Prather, * a The tail of the animal was swung over the Colonel's shoulder when he entered the camp while its head draggeg along the ground. A brusqueness of manner, an armor which only his few intimate friends could pierce, often caused the man to be misunderstood. He knew his kindheartedness, and this ap- parent severity was hig way of fighting what he believed was his own weakness, Philip Ferguson, an old-time newspaper man, known as “Jenks,”’ used to say in this connection, referring to Hyde’s memorable balloon trip with Wise as a reporter, that “Col. Hyde once went up in a balloon and never came down again.” George Brown, the veteran stenographer in Judge Wood's court, came here from England to make a business foothold, and owes much to Col. Hyde for a favorable stdrt. He entered the editor’s sanctum, and in Hyde’s absence applied for a pagition to some one else. He got little entcourage- Hyde. heard of Brown and sent for to the extent of half a column,” said rde. Brown returned and submitted exactly a half column. “How did you guess so accurately?’ asked Col, Hyde.e “TIT counted the words and measured them,’’ was the response. ; Col. Hyde was pleased and asked him what salary he deemed fair. Brown figured pcunds,' shillings and pence, as he had been accustomed to in the old country, and then gaye an equiva- lent of $9 a week as the sum he expected. ‘‘We don’t pay such emanunts,” said Col. Hyde. “You will draw $20 at the end of the week.”’ Soon after Brown was on the payrolls for $30. , Hyde’s hunting companions at Camp Prather one day persuaded him that a boat in which Col. J. Grif Prather and Col. Joe Rickey paddled away was his property. They advised him to fire a scare shot at the two oarsmen. Hyde did so. The bullet in some unaccountable way ricochetted over the water and grazed Col. Rickey’s cheek. After that there was no more fooling with firearms. John R. Slevin, Democratic candidate for Probate Clerk, tells this story: “Col. Hyde and a party were in a boat angling and one of the crowd caught a dogfish. The catch was hard to manage, and in a spirit of fun they tied an empty bottle to the tail of the dogfish. “‘The contortionsS that followed were the funniest imag nable. It struck Col. Hyde as being so ]dicrous that he laughed him- put the boat ashore for fear he would up- set it.” ‘ Capt. Dan Able, ex-Harbor and Wharf Commissioner, and one of the jolly coterie which usually passed October and Nevem- ber at Camp Prather, on the Black River, tells of Hyde's entry into Nimroddom thus: “It was only in recent years that Col. Hyde learned to leye the woods and the waters and the hills. He had been a book- ish fellow before that. We got him to our camp a8 a guest one day, and he quickly absorbed the spirit of the sportsman. After that it was his great delight to go out into the forests to hunt and fish. : “At our campfires he was in his element as a Wit and an altogether companionable fellow. He was not intimate with many and his hatred of shams and pretense made it difficult t6 approach h'm at times.” In his relations with postoffice employes during hig term as Postmaster and as superintendent of carriers there was 4 marked absence of friction. Kdward Boha, one of the veterans of the office, said: | “Mr. Hyde seemed to command a respect that always brought quick and cheerful obedience to his orders. His many good turns to those in trouble endeared him te us. His irreproachable honesty command- ed our admiration. His commission as superintendent expired @n the day he died, although he had been a on a leave of ab- sence owing to illness lately.’’ HAVE HEALTH AND HAPPINESS Use. Garland” Stoves and Ranges. LCOKS BAD FOR GARRINGTON. Evidence in the Murder Case so Far Against Him. Special to the Post-Dispatch. TERRE HAUTE, Ind., Nov. 2—In the “pode’’ Carrington murder trial, for the killing of Wesley Niece and Rayless Ewart in a saloon, at Grant, last February, the witnesses se far examined by the State have given damaging evidence to the de- fense, and have failed to show any cause why Carrington should have fired. The witnesses allege that he Was not pro- yoked; th t neither Ewart nor Niece had assaulted him in any Way. and that there were no grounds which would warrant the claim of self-defense. As they were the chief witnesses to the murder the evidence «co far offered has been decidedly for the prosecution. em Economical housekeepers will read what the dry goods stores will te) them in to- morrow (Thursdey's) Post-Dispateb.

Y., Nov. 2.—After & years, Polly Williams Van Horn this week visited the grave of her mad lover, and left the mound heaped over with flowers. She is 80 years old now and the man who loved her has been dead these five years. His name was Ambrose Smith. He was the son of a farmer, and fell in love with pretty Polly Williams, the youngest of Farmer Wiliam’s #even beautiful daugh- ters. Smith took up the study of medicine, and when his prospects warranted it he drove to -Folly’s home and asked Polly’s father for her hand in marriage. That was the way they did it in those days. But Polly’s father had to Inform Polly’s lover that Polly had on that very day cel- ebrated her marriage to Lieut. Van Horn, of Albany, who had been stationed tempor- arily at the Watertown arsenal. Smith had been absent from the town pursuing his medical studies and had not heard of the engagement. He turned about and drove away never uttering a word, after the manner of heroes. All day he drove, and when they found him after a gearch he was raving in-delirium. He re- mained always ‘eccentric.’ Wandering about in the fields and woods, he became .an authority in botany, and learned the medicinal properties of all growing plants. His sister kept his house. His costume for the half century between his affliction and his death was a long black coat, trousers turned up at the Bottom, a slouch hat and big wooden shoes that he made himself. He declared that he was a good Samaritan and called himself so. Wherever there was sic k- ness old Ambrose was there with his reme- dies, and hundreds were rursed to health. He never accepted any compensation. In one of the neighboring villages an epf- demic of smallpox once broke out. Old Ami- brose started for the place at once, and for five months he stayed alone w'th the pa- tlents in a little building called the pest Out of all the victims of the discase. and there were dozens, only two cases failed to yield to Ambrose’s treatment. These were buried by him-in graves duy by his own hands. One day his friends found his lifeless body stretched across the grave of his brother. Go when his o!d sweetheart visited his grave the story of Ambrose’s life was re- peated in hundreds of homes. | A Dog and a Rabbit Bring to Life the Papers That Would Have Saved Mrs. Rudolph the Shame and Pain of Years. PATERSON, N. J., Nov. 2.—Detective Ms- Gee of Paterson was hunting In the Preak- ness Mountains. His dog chased a rabbit, and after it jumped into a hole in a 6-foot stone wail, “taGee, to get at the rabbit, knocked out several large stones from the wall. With one a small package fell. The package was tied with stout cords and wrappea ina Paterson newspaper, moulded and mildewed, of date December, isgz. It contained a small can of meat, a little Jar of preserves, and, much more {m- portant, a gold locket, a wedding ring, two sealed papers and two photographs, one of » rome woman, the other of an o]d man. ne of the sealed papers was a certificate of the marriage of Marie Plotz and William Rudolph, signed by Justice Dimond of Pat- erson. The other paper was a letter from Rudolph to his wife. For a month the de- tective searched for Mrs. Rudolph. She was found yesterday. Seven years ago Rudolph, 27 years of age, married his 17-years-old sweetheart secretly. The girl’s father was the man’s employer. Soon after the marriage Rudolph, at work in the barn, fej] through the loft. He struck his head, and thereafter his conduct was 80’ eccentric that Plotz discharged him. “Your daughter is my wife,” said Ru- dolph. The assertion only confirmed old Plotz’s belief that Rudolph was crazy. He drove the farm hand from the house. For awhile Rudolph and his young bride communicated with each other by Tetters, which they left in a hole in a stone fence. Soe no further word came from the hus- and. A baby blessed Mrs. Rudolph. “Prove to me your mariage,” said her father, ‘‘and I will forgive you even now.”’ But the girl could only tell of a din of- fice in Paterson where a Justice of the Peace made her RudoDbph’s wife. ‘**‘My husband has the certificate and the ring,”’ she tearfully declared. Her ‘father would not belleve her; he searched the records at Paterson,but his daughter’s mar- riage was not registered. Believing her dishonored, Plotz disowned her. When he lied he disinherited her, but left a@ proviso that if she could ever prove her marriage to Rudolph she should have share in his estate, worth $9000. Now this astonishing chance has enabled Mrs. Rudolph to hold up her head before the world. She believes that her husband's mind was affected by his injury, and that.after leav- ing the proofs of their mariage in their se- cret postoffice, he wandered away. Justice Dimond of this city has verified his signature on the certificate. He says that {In all probability he forgot to récord the marriage.

Patients will be received immediately from the New_Jer- | sey insane asylums. By Gov. Werts, the need of removing epileptics from association with maniacs Was recognized, and the village idea was formed, Gov. Griggs, however, vetoed a bill to establish one on account of the cost. A second bill was passed last winter, and Gov. Voorhees appointed a commission, place for the village. Eventually, there will be a cOMmunity of epileptics, with their own officers and local customs. Ng restraint further than attend- ‘ants to help the patients in cases of neces- | sity will be imposed. In time a _ limited j; number will be allowed to have their wives and children with them. which selected Maplewood Farm as the: CHAP BIRMINGHA.M., Ala., Nov.+2.—In front of the Birmingham Commercial Club building late Monday night the Rev.

Mr. Fitzsimmons sided with the officers against Col. Higdon in a contro- /versy which started in the regiment two months ago. The enlisted men sided with Col.

Would Dr. Depew Kindly send the money with which to purchase the aforesaid trous- seau, and thereby “earn the life-long grat- tude of two loving hearts, etc., etc.’’ The young woman inclosed her picture as a guarantee of good faith. ~Private Secre- tary Duval felt a kindly Interest in the expectant es couple, and showed the photograph to Mr. Depew, who admired the fair young face, handed the picture back to Mr. Duval, and said that it reminded him of a story. sudden business call prevented his telling the story. ~~ NEW YORK, Nov. 2.—Within the past year Helen Gould has received requests for the donation of $1,000,000. These begging letters come from all quarters. Miss Gould treats her begging mail with much greater respect than do most -persons of large wealth, for, unless unusually engaged with other matters, she reads every letter asking for financial aid on the same day it is re- ceived, setting aside a certain part of each twenty-four hours for its perusal in com- pany with her private secretary. Many of these letters, most of them, in fact, are so palpably fakes that no serious attention is paid to them, yet so sincerely courteous and considerate of the feelings of others is Miss Gould that a polite answer is sent by the next post to nearly every letter- writing alms asker. Miss Gould’s begging mail must call for a preposterous annual aggregate of charity} nowadays, forit has almost doubled within the last six months, and the total asked for in gifts by letter in the year 1897 as footed up by her private secretary was a oo more than $1,000,000, or about $2,740 a ay. How much she actually gives out for charity, not even her private secretary knows, many benefactions being extended by Miss Gould in absolute secrecy. —— PR gis Reape sere % Sa eee oe £446006666 4660660600000 * Busted Diamon 712 OLIVE STREET.

Leo Frank, late a subject of King Hum- bert. is accused by the local Itatlan colony of marrying Mrs. Sommica Lobardo-Spi- nelli, 53 years his senior, because she has 4 enerous bank account. "Ts the same breath it Is whispered that Mrs. Sommieca Lobardo-Spinelli married handsome, husky Leo Frank because of his well-developed muscles. Afid behind the accusation and the whispering Is said to be a story of La Mafia. The new Mrs. Frank has a son-in-law, Mark Pitranich. When Mark married Mary Lobardo-Spinelii he had as a member of his household Assunita Mastrogiaconie, a pretty Neapolitan maiden. Mrs, Pitranich objected to her, and Mark found her a hus- band in Frank Marsola. Marsola believes he was worsted in the arrangement and Is credited with taking his vengeance out of the hide of his erst- while friend Pitranich. He is suspected of being identified with thé M&Aafia, and Pitran- ich's wife fled to her mother fn alarm. The old lady knew Leo Frank's strength, so. it is said, she married him, and the combined household defy Marsola. The families live in the 0 block on South Fourth street.

Outside of the human family there-is nothing in the flesh dine finer than a beautiful horse. He is the embodiment of grace and strength fashioned for the use of man. There is a solid basis for the popularity of the horse show. The best bred horse of to-day its the product of human in- -telligence applied to the laws of nature for the development of the best in the horse. The thoroughbred is the highest result of horse culture. . It is natural, therefore, that men-‘and women should ad- mire his fine points, revel in his beauty and appreciate the intelligence which makes him a useful and attractive trea- sure. The horse show is a delight to a healthy mind. It is @ stimulus to healthfulness. The comparison of ill-bred men with well-bred horses tends to elevate the race of men. But in the horse show there is more than the show of horse beauty. There is a higher type of beauty in the auditorium. There is a fine type of manly skill and courage ih the arena. Long live the horse show! == = a ae The belief in divine retribution is evidently not strong in France. >. > Lip. — a ae WHAT WILL THE HOUSE DO? “If the Peace Commission agrees to pay $40,000,000 for the Philippines, if the President accepts the treaty, if the Senate confirms it there will not be an end of ‘the matter. Will the Heuse appropriate any such sum for Oriental real estate? Of course, when the treaty is signed, confirmed and ratified it is a part of the supreme law of the land, but even the supreme law must be supported with money before it is effective. The House of Representatives has been obstreperous on several occasions in the past where just such questions in- volving treaties have been before it. There is an opportunity here for a great partisan fight, and perhaps for some very sound and wise siatesmanship. ~t+7eo, .__.. Every trust says it is not a trust.

The cal] of the Italian Secretary of State for an anti-anar- Cchist conference, to be held at Rome, is noteworthy only be- Cause it puts the cart before the horse. The anarchist differs from the ordinary murderer only in being more bloodthirsty and vain. He is not an original force, He is a produ: like other criminals; and there is no reason to suppose that special measures against him wil! be more effective than the ordinary criminal code. If the governments of Europe could get over their insane distrust of the people, if they could once be brought to under- Stand the Jeffersonian doctrine that the strongest government on earth is that founded upon the sentiment, interest and Will of the people, the anarchists would not last for a day. tee The money necessary, to start a man in the colonies would buy a good farm in Missouri and give an energetic man a permanent home. _ — a. > rw WHAT DOES IT COST? he Republican National Committee has sen 00 political “pieces,” to convihce the ie th orrect thi This an ! no good; jig . every Voter a for partisan er: Hiaving revee@led the quantity Scodieenieetiiieenssst t out this year carefully written by expert par- ‘ader that McKinley Republicanism 6, tis:. _'— of campaigning which, if it does any harm.

OMAHA’S SUCCESS. to Aaedeiry eat the receipts: of the Transmississippi Exposi- | @bout half a million dollars in excess of the ex- a seems to prove that we are beginning to understand raed patti gern Breat fairs with financial success. , ; © greatest fairs of the past were almost tragic failures from the financial] point of view. The first World’s Fair at Paris, in 1855, cost $1,700,000 ana only brought in $1,280,000. - : ‘ The next Puris World’s Fair, in 1867, cost $4,000,000; the receipts were $2,100,000, The great World's Fair at Vienna, in 1873, was a terrible financial failure, costing $11,000,000, with receipts of but $1,030,000. The Philadelphia Centennial show was not much better. It cost about $8,500,000; the receipts were $3,800,000. In 1878 Paris had another World's Fair, which did not pay. And again in 1889 the Parisians scored a failure in their great Exposition. The present indications are that the Omaha Fair has been more successful than the Chicago Fair of 1893, which at clos- ing had an amount in hand sufficient to ‘pay its stockholders about 20 per cent of their subscriptions. It is estimated that the stockholders of the Omaha Fair would receive a large per- centage, but for the damage suits pending. : All these figures, of course, should be considered in con- junction with the benefit to local trade and industry that a great fair brings, and which is one of the chief objects of such fairs. With this in mind, the promoters of the Louts- iana Purchase Celebration cannot but feel encouraged to profit by Omaha’s example and conclude that “the Fair's the thing’ for 1903 in St. Louis. = = — -_ Julia Johnson recommends the reorganization of the Shak- ers with the adoption of the institution of marriage, that their empty houses may be filled; but another experienced Shaker declares that marriage is an element of division, and adds: “If Sister Julia will gather five or six good families intoa community, and she govern them for five or six years, she will be convinced of the fact that the natural and spiri- tual relations will not work harmoniously to a heavenly life.” We shall have to wait to see how this intéresting discussion is to affect the census. ee eee ee In Wilmington, N. C., the white people pay 96 per cent of the taxes and own 97 per cent of the property, but out of a total population of 25,000 the negroes cast 1200 more votes than the whites, fill 78 per cent of the offices and expend the money which the white taxpayers contribute to the treasury. Possibly there are Northern cities that would not be entirely content with this preponderance of the Afro-American. oe By the decision of the United States Supreme Court in the case brought against Comptroller Roberts of New York, the State of New York can, if it pleases, impose a prohibitive tax on foreign corporations. Trusts that are incorporated in New Jersey “are such corporations. Will New York proceed tto drive them out by the taxing power? _-— = = —"— So It is found that, notwithstanding a great enlargement in colonia] possessions, Great Britain sells reiatively no more of her products to her outside possessions. than she did 50 years ago. It remains to be seen whether in extending our territory we shail succeed in expanding our commerce. Some idea of the cost of the Spanish war may be formed by the fact that in four weeks nearly $2,500,000 has been paid into the treasury by St. Louis alone under the new revenue law. A reduction of the stamp tax would be very welcome, now that the war is over. coe The materialization of the late Chauncey I. Filley at the Concordia Hail seance must have surprised some of his: ene- mies. Uncle Filley is an avenging ghost, who is likely to ap- pear repeatedly. The warning to people without means to keep out of Porto Rico is renewed. The American who goes there to expand requires a stake almost as much as he does when he moves to the Klondike. — Sa The relatives of a President work the National Government and the relatives of a Governor work the State Government: so that government in the United States is very much a mat- ter of kinsmen. ———— ee -G Is the local Republican enthusiasm, described in a morning organ, inspired by the kind of Republican government we have been getting in St, Louis? Let us have ne more doubt of the progress of civilization among the Indians. The funds of the Senecas are almost wholly absorbed by their officers. The most important question for the French’to settle is the Dreyfus question. The Egyptian matter bears no comparison with it. 2-... SHOULD OLD MEN WED YOUNG MAIDS?. Post-Dispatch Readers Discuss This Interesting Question From Various Points of View. Thinks It’s Nonsense, To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. I think ‘‘December”’ in Monday's Post- Dispatch raises a question which has no place in the sphere of sound sense, morais or expediency. Marriage is, or ought to be, an equal partnership, founded upon equal services to the family and upon a love which, whether the marred pair know it or not. is founded upon the distinctiy ethica! instincts of fatherhood and motherhood. To expect community of feeling and inter- est of this pure character between an old man and a young woman is to hope for the impossible and unnatural. The ta.k about perpetual youth ts nonsense so far ae it has bearing on this question, Let December wed November if he likes but not go moon- ing areund May. Old men are ridiculous wnen'they get to thinking about young women. YOUTH. A Lottery. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. The marriage of an old man with a young woman is eminently proper if they are both healthy and young in thought and interests. There is much senseless opposition to such un.ons, but it is a mere prejudice, and needs only experience to dissipate it. If the cou- ple have the same tastes and preferences the marriage is as likely to be as happy as any other, Marriage is a lottery at the best. St. Louis. BACHELOR. St. Louis. A Case in Point. To the Editer of the Post-Dispatch. Old men, or men who have lost the fire and sparkle characteristic of the young, would do well read Dickens’ story of “David Copperfield,” in which is a striking to picture of the failure of a marriage where one of the parties to it ts far more devel- oped than the other. To most middle-aged or old men the average young woman of to-day would appear foolish and childish as did Dora to Copperfield. A man wants a thoughtful companion when he himself has cast off childish things, not a frivolous youngster, however sweet and pretty, St. Louis. A READER. It Didn’t Pay This One. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. . I know of an old man, if he were alive, who could throw some light on the ques- tion, ‘‘Does it pay to raise children?” He ded in the Poorhouse, after he had given his property to his offspring, expecting them to take care of him in the last years of his old age. i a Me Approves the Old Man. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. I think December jis right. I admire his Pluck. A man need never grow old in apirit; and if he lives right, keeping a temperate mind in a temperate body, he js just as good at @ as at 30. Years don't count unless we make them count. Let Décember marry the woman he ]oves, and long life to him. MIDDLE-AGED WOMAN. meee ee eee Must Be Sure She Loves Winter. To tne Editor of the Post-Dispatch, The right kind of_a December husband knows much better how to take care of @ wife than does any young man. That ‘is one reason why a young woman should have an old husband. But no woman should marry any man, old or young, unless she is sure that she loves him. St. Louis. UNCLE WILLIAM. No Right to Complain. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. I think December has a penfect right to marry May if the young woman is fool enough to have him. But he will have ne right to complain ff she decelves and bam- boozies him. Young women don't marry ola men for love. Why should they?

GIRDINER'S PLANS EEE re THE VICE-PRESIDENT OF THE AMERICAN CYCLISTS’ RAC- ING UNION GOING ABROAD. — THE SIX-DAY TOURNAMENT. Frederic the Whirlwind Is Coming All the Way from Switzerland to Start in the Madison Square Contest. Vice-President of the American Cyclists’ Racing Union, and the rider who is really entitled to the cham- pionship of 1888, has expressed his intention of going abroad and riding sprint races. He has received several offers, but wil not leave until he is sure of his expenses. The last season on the cycle track netted him $5280, and if he does not offer he will remain in this ride at the indoor meets. The Chicago boy predicts the of an international association that will join hands with the this country. Already several ers have broken away from the that bhhas controlled cyciing In years.

He realizes that he has a dangerous opponent in Frederie, the Swiss champion, who ‘s a whirlwind and is com- ing over to this country to get a crack at the big. purse hung up for the six-day rind. Miller saw the “Swiss’’ ride when i¢@ Was abroad. and declares that he will push every one hard for first pos.tion. The prizes in the great s.x-day race this yeur will be $1500, $1000, $600, $400, $300, $200, $150 and $i2o. The American Cyclists’ Union are anxious to hold a six-day cycle race in Chicago, but find that such a thing is .mpossible to do, @s there is an anti-six-dav racing law in Jilinois. The promoters will try to give a rind to the Chicago hall-fillers that will be or three or folir days, and if a permit can be secured they will bring all of the foreign riders and six-day champions West after thie continuous egrind’at Madison Square Giarden that will come to a close on Dec | long-distance race woulé draw well in the Garden City afd would give the Middle West cycle enthusiasts a chance. — — -~ a i SHARKEY AND CORBETT. irankie Noel, Featherweight, Talks of the Meeting of Those Two. lrankie Noel, the clever feather weight eof St. Louis, was asked to-day: for opinion of the Sharkey-Corbett fight. fad: ‘*Having just returned’ to New York from the Springs Corbett will need all the train- he can get from now to the time he to meet Sharkey. A short time ago ‘Macon’ wrote that if Corbett,’ when he met Sharkey, was in as ,go0o0d condition as when he met Fitzsim- mons, he should have no trouble in defeat- ing hm. “But the ‘if’ is the point. I don’t expect C‘orbett to be as good.when he meets Sharkey as he was when he met Fit: “Why should he be?

FRANK BELL’S PERFORMANCE. It Surprised All the Turfmen at Shef- field and Was a Record Breaker Sure Enough. The Latonia meeting has been continued until Nov. 19. It was to have closed next Saturday, but the meeting has been such a successful one that it has been decided to continue it until the date named. All the favorites except Deyo were bowled over at Latonia yesterday. The honors were divided at Aqueduct yesterday. At Lakeside Masie V., a 200 to 1 shot, won the third race, and Foncliff, with Bloss up, was the only favagrite to win during the aitlernoon. At the Lakeside course on Monday Frank Bell shouldered 120 pounds and ran four and a half furlongs with a burst of speed which equaled the track record of :55 made by Holy Terror as a 2-year-old with 100 pounds up. The O’Neall gelding was asked to beat Boney Boy, Andes, Cathedral, Fon- ta.nbleau and others of fair class, but the ring thought him capable of doing so, al- though he was conceding from twenty to twenty-two pounds to each, ang the odds were never better than 2to5. Getting away in a fairly good place, Bloss took the speedy youngster right to the front, and entering the stretch had opened up a gap of six lengths over Boney “Boy, who got away runn.ng and held second place all the way, with enough left to beat Andes’ strong bid for the place. The latter was off badly, but closed strongly after making up the lost ground. From a time standpoint the event was the feature of the day, and is all the more creditable from the heavy weight which Frank Bell was carrying. Talking about the Eastern racing season and the success of bookies an Eastern bookmaker the other-day said: “Never in the history of racing in these parts have the opportunities for the book- ies been more satisfactory. All season long prices have ranged low and business brisk. U'psets have been frequent and losses rare. Toe plunger and the piker have contributed almost daily. The best judges of fSrm have found their figures a delusion and a snare. The rail birds, the handicappers, the backers of stable information, owners, trainers, in fact, betters of all descriptions, have gone the one way. ‘The bookies who have stepped down and out must be glassed the unselfish ones. They have won enough to satisfy themselves, and will en- joy their winter's rest at the expense of the serge who have, with but few exceptions, ost heavily. “One need only to make a tour of ‘the line’ to find evidence of all this prosperity. The very natures of the pencilers seem changed. They are positively polite in their treatment. Errors are corrected with pro- fuse apologies, and it is not an unusual thing to find one giving a regular customer a Shade better price than the one quoted. All this is of course pleasing, but there are reasons for it. It is a civility that has been paid for.’’ as In the East they are discussing the ques- tion as to which was the best 3-year-old this season. Ornament ran some brilliant races. also ran some bad races. consistent to have any place in the first rank of race horses. He was beaten too often by ordinary ‘horses to have a clear title to class. Hamburg was to Ornamnient as an electric Nght is to the flicker of a tallow candle. And, notwithstanding the claim that has been set up for Ben Holla- day in these latter days, Hamburg was as superior to Ben Holaday as he was to Ornament. Ben Holladay and Ornament were of the same rank. Hamburg was leagues above them. All distances were alike to him—five furlongs or five miles. No sane man would think of questioning Hambure’s ability to outsprint either of the horses named. His performances in the Realization at a mile and five furlongs, and in the Brighton Cup, at two miles and a quarter, proved beyond the shadow of a doubt that he was the best horse in Amer- ica at any distance. He could race fast and far—and therein lies the true great- ness of the thoroughbred. Hamburg has been the glory of the year. He He was too in- There ‘were other g00d 3-year-olds be- sides Hamburg, but the best of them went wiong early in the year. The 2-year-olds have been a sorry lot. They have beaten each other too frequently and too easily to permit of any of them laying any claim to class. F Jean Beraud was the e?ampion. Martimas, who won fhe l‘uturity, reigned a brief space. After Martimas any one of half a dozen colts and fhliies in training might .uave been hailed as the champion. A horse of the class whch Hamburg showed as a 2-year. old would have made the best of them look like a selling plater. A Yew pounds in weight, a bad send-off, a Jittle crowd- ing was suffictent to defeat one and give the race to another. The shifting of the laurel is good ground for the belief that the 2-yvyear-olds of this season, while main:- taining a high average, are not of the best class. It may be. and there is rea- son to believe, that some of them will he seen to better advantage as 8-year-olds. That such may prove to be the case is the fervent wish of all turfmen. rc ft Pere Then Six-Day Walking Match. NEW YORK, Nov. 2.—Preparations are being completed for the international six- day walking match to be held at Madison Square Garden, beginning Dec. 26. Nearly eight years ago contests of this kind were held in Gilmore’s old garden, but this is the first attempt to ho!d one in the present building. The attempt to make it a genu- ine internat'onal contest has. met with great Arabians, South American Indians, Egyptians, Nubians. Russian Cossacks and other fore'gners brought to this country by Buffalo Bill and Streets ef India shows have announced thefr inten- tion of entering. The majority of these are athletes and men of great endurance. Six thousand dollars in prirzes will be of- fered, ranging from the winner’s share of $2500 to $50, = - _-- am SUCCESS.

The managers of the Commercial Club have at last completed arrangem@nts for their next exhibition. Their main buut will be between Jimmy Barry of Chicago and Johnny Ritchie of St. Louis. , They are featherweights and are at the ee top in their class. Ritchie is the best boxer of his inches ever developed in St. Louis. He is a Kerry Patch boy;and his friends in the wore “rs are saetod. arry is a native born Chicagoan. ; is a crackerjack in the fighting ne. — He was born in the Garden City the year of the Chicago fire, 1871. In December last he fought 2 rounds with Walter Croot, in the Nationa] Sporting Club's rooms in London, England, and the drubbing he gave Croot, resuited in the lat- ter’s death the next day. That fight was for the featherweight championship of the world. Barry's gameness has often been tried. but never more s0 than at Lamont, Ill.. Sept. 15, 1893, when he fought Casper Leon to a finish, knocking his man out in the 28th round. > Beside the Barry-Ritchie fight there will be several curtain raisers, notably one be- tween Johnny Van Heest and Oscar Gard- ner. They are very evenly matched. and is will be the fourth time they have each other. , The Commercial Club 4s also trying to bring Kid McCéy here either to give an exhibition of boxing or to meet some one of the good men. Bob Fitzsimmons, champion pugilist of the world, is now touring the country with his theatrical combination. He was at Dayton, O., this week, and while there he was asked for his opinion of the Corbett- Sharkey contest, to take place at New York on Nov. 22. He said: “I do not feel like offering any criticism of those fellows in New York. It places me in a bad position, and for that reason I deo not like to discuss them. However. I th'nk that Corbett will outpoint Sharkey. but I do not believe the bout will last the entire number of rounds. “Yes, I think the MeCoy-Maher fight will come off. When McCoy told me he had made the match with Maher I at once advised him to be careful of Maher. Maher is one of the most daangerous fighters in the country, and always has aepunch ready to put any man out of the business. MeCoy, if he is careful} may win out on points. Tt is the same way with Corbett. Corbett ought to blind Sharkey in 20 rounds. but I do not think that either he or McCoy ean knock out his man. They may win en points, but not otherwise. ‘I have always believed, and still do be- lieve, that Corbett never made the match with Sharkey expecting to bring it to the end of the full twenty rounds. ‘It is my opinion that the police will stop the bont justin time to prevent the people from get- ting their money back. Corbett had this plan in view when he made the match and there iS a certainty he would never have signed articles had he believed that this was not strongly probable. I do not believe in limited fighting. I like to see a finish. “Those fights in New York are becoming what you might call ‘fakey.’ Let them fight to a finish and then you can deter- mine the relative merits of the men. I have made no plans for the future, with the ex- ception that I will finish the season on the road. Ihave no arrangements about meet- ing anybody, as I gave them all a chance before [I went out. My money is now up. You can say that Iam open to any heavy weight that shows himself to be the best man in any fight. “Let the heavy weights fight among themselves and prove which is the best man and then I will meet him and am will- ing to make a match at any time for $10,000 a side. Understand that I am not now making this challenge, but it has stood be- fore I went out on the road and will stand as long as I am on the road or at any time or place.” This week Corbett commenced training at New York. A _ special from there says: This morning he put on the gloves with McVey for a few minutes, then sparred with two Others in quick succession, and fol- lowed up this vigorous exercise with a half hour's lively punching of the bag. Me- Vey then came on the mat for a bit of wrestling, and the morning’s work wound up with a shower bath and a rub down, In the afternoon Corbett took a fiveémile spin in Central Park, and expects to increase the distance to eight or ten miles a day be- fore the end of the week. Charley White is superintending the ex-champion’s prep- arations and says he will show up as fine as split-silk. ee SUCCESSFUL ST. LOUIS BOYS. Many of Them Scored Hits in Eastern College Athletics. The young St. Louisans who have gone East to attend the big colleges and who have made any attempt at gaining honors in the athletic line have nearly always suc- cecded. St. Louts is well represented on the grid- iron, the diamond, the cycle track and oth- er branches of sport in the Eastern col- leges thi. year. At Yale Joe Wear and Ed Wallace, both of this city, are star baseball players: 3oth are on the All-American team tis season and both are players on the Yale ‘Varsity team. Jim Wear’s younger broth- er is one of Yale's best half backs and he is also a crack cyclist. At Princeton George Priest is one of the best pitchers in that college, and last sea- son he won the game between the Yale freshmen and the Princeton freshmen teams for the latter by his excellent pitch- ing. At Harvard this city has some very good athletes who are gaining honors on the gridiron and the tennis courts, The latest addition to the St. Louisans who are big guns in college athletics js James Richardson, Jr., son of the Supply Commissioner. Richardson ts the best long- distance runner at Cornell. In the sopho- more games which were held last week the St.. Louis boy captured the mile run in easy style. On last Saturday at the ’Var- sity fall meet Richardson won the mile and the two-mile runs with ease. The Ath- letic Association think that they have a star runner in Richardson, and he will no doubt be a member of the team which is to represent Cornell In the intercollegiate gwames next spring. . Ryan and McCoy. In New York the other dav Kid McCoy, when asked if he would fight Tommy Ryan aH a middleweight champtlonship, re- piieada. “NO, sir. I have fought Ryan twice. I whipped him easily and decisively the first time, and at the second meting a badger game Was sprung on me in the form of po- lice interference to save Ryan. I have demonstrated that I am .Rvyan’s superior, and I am not fighting men of that sort any more, unless, of course, a big purse its of- fered. I will probably accept an offer to meet Jim Jeffries after I fight Peter Ma- her.” Yesterday’s Track Winners. At Aqueduct—Tinge. Incandescent, Whist- ling Coon, Cant. Sigsbee, King Barleycorn and Becky Rolfe, At Latonia—Dutch Comedian, Aunt Mag- gie, Clarence B., Mill Stream, Joe Shelby, Belle of Dublin and Deyo.

WASHINGTON UNIVERSITY TEAM They and the Smith Academy Eleven Have Joined Hands in Their Practice Work. The practice between the two elevens at Christian Brothers’ College is going on every day, and bringing better results to the ’Varsity. When next Sunday arrives the ’Varsity team will be the best C. B. C. boys have been able to put on the field this year. Continual practice has strengthened the team in all points, and they are now await- ing the arrival of the Shurtleff College eleven, whose colors they expect to down next Saturday. The Shurtleff eleven will be a great deal stronger when they meet the ¢€. B. C. than they were when Washington defeated them. The Shurtleff boys are training hard and will play a great game Saturday. Swain is improving da@ly in his kicking. and the team has a number of line men On it that will hold their own with any Of the preparatory elevens. Capt. Bland and his warriors are seen daily at the Pastime grounds, where they line up against the Smith eleven for vrac- tice, The Washington University’s eleven are improving in their line, and Smith has on nearly every occasion found it im- possible to break through, Capt. Biand's men will meet the eleven that represents the School of Mines of Rolla, Mo., next Saturday. The poor showing thut Harvard made last Saturday against the Indians has taken all the life out of the team, and they look forward to nothing but defeat at the hands of the Universities of Pennsylvania and Yale. The defenders of the ‘‘erimson’”’ found it impossible to buck through the Indians’ line, while the Indians went through theirs at will. The Harvardites lack the Yale spirit of ‘do or die.”’ In '% the coaches of Harvard used to turn up at training time with tales of Yale's fierce- ness that would make the players’ hair stand on end. These tales made the eleven work all the harder, and they would alwavst make a better showing than they make now. They are now devoting all their time to strengthening their line. The Princeton eleven have been playing better ball than any of the big Eastern colleges, and have so far not allowed any of their opponents to score against them. The good werk of the coaches, Chri-te and Dr. Wright, has put the men in superb con- dition. and there is no reason why Prince- ton should not now present a very strong svstem of attack jn the Yale game. The Tigers play the University of Virginia this afternoon. This game will give them plenty of practice for their coming struggle with West Point on next Saturday. —— -—® TIM HURST’S DECISIONS. Twice in One Week They Have Been Disputed by the Spectators. No one questions the honesty of Tim Hurst as a referee. A squarer man perhaps never entered the roped arena. But with- in a week Hurst ha&® rendered two decis- ions which have been warmly questioned by the lookers-on. In the Lally-Nolan mill Tim gave the bout to Nolan, when many thought it should have been a draw, and so declared themselves, At Louisville on Monday Tim gave Tom- my Hogan the decision over Eugene Re- zenah, but there were a few in the club- house who believed the New Yorker wae entitled to the victory, A draw. in the gen- eral opinion, would ave been proper. When the gong ended the fighting both men were up and doing. and. while Be- zenah was weaker on his feet, he was punching stronger than Hogan, who did not have strength enough to get into Be- zenan with a finishing touch. After Hurst had given his decision there were far more Bezenah men to be found than Hogan, and there were hisses and jeers. ASSOCIATION FOOTBALL. The St. Louis League’s Teams Will All Be Ready for Business Sunday. The teams of the St. Louis Football League will all be in good shape by Sunday afternoon when they will play their double- header on the Christian Brothers’ College Campus. The scheme of playing games at Sports- man’s and Empire Parks has proven a win- ner to the 8t. Louis Football Association and will be continued. The Cc. F. Blanke football] eleven have se- lected William Corcoran as their captain and P. Moore as their vice-captain, eack be- ing elected by an unanimous vote. The regulur team selected includes: Goal, F. Beckman; full backs, O, Ruder, P. Richter; half backs, Bob Kerr, Oscar Hoffman, F. Helbig; forwards, William Corcoran, P. Moore, A. Williams, i:L. Coddington, Robert Etzkorn. This team will line up in the oh game on C, B. iC, campus on Sunday next. 7 With the Billiardists. At Parker's Grand Academy tn the balk line games yesterday Hirsh beat Capron twice, the scores being 30 to 49 and BO to 41. Hirsh also beaut Jevne, 50 to 34, Moulds took Jevne into camp, 60 to 17, At cushion caroms Capron beat Hirsh, 30 to 72; Moulds beat Hirsh, 80 to 17, and Hirsh beat Jevne, 30 to 19. At three cushions Jevne won three games from Moulds, the scores being & to 4, 8 to 8 and 8 to 7. Moulds’ Winning game was 8 to 5. Capron started out to play 8 to Jevne's 7, and lost three straight games. Jevne ran out each game with Capron on the 7 mark. Capron and Moulds won two games from Gillette and Jevne, the scores being 8 to 5 and 8 to 7. Gillette and Jevne won one game, 8 to 6. Gillette and Harry Wade will play bank shot to-night, 25 points up. At three cush- lons Gillette and Jevne will play a 25-polut game on Thursday night. TTROLLEYS FOR TOKIO AMERICANS COMMISSIONED TO BUILD ELECTRIC RAIL- WAYS IN JAPAN. COMPANY WITH TEN MILLIONS. The Drexels and Stephen B. Elkins, With Other Financiers, Behind the Oriental] Innovation. CHICAGO, Nov. 2.—Trolley cars will soon whiz and clang through the streets of To- kio, Yokohama and other large cities of Japan if the plans now being formed in Chicago are carried out. A eompany of Chicago and ,Eastern capitalists is being formed which is to have a capital of not less thun $10,000,000 for the purpose of build- ing electric railways throughout the island in-all the principal towns. The financial backers of the enterprise are not as yet learned, but it is asserted they are well-known banking firms, amply arry out any concessions they may ary pao the Government. The Drexelils and Stephen B. Elkins of New York are mentioned in connection with the enterprise, and it is claimed by those on the inside that a large share of money will come from Philadelphia. Negotiations are now going on for: the obtaining of a charter that will enable the work to go on at once, In this connection the name of W. D. East- lake, who has an Office in the Monadnock building, has been mentioned. Mr. East- , SAYS: oF te bay that I have been approached by parties representing capitalists, with a view to establishing such a company. But nothing yet has been definitely arranged. ‘Japan has been my home tor a number of years. July 1 of next year the whole kingdom is to be opened without restric- tions to foreigners. Heretofore there has been little or no opportunity for Ameri- cans or Europeans to transact business successfully with the interior’ regions, Travel has been possible only on passports of I'mited duration, and a merchant wanted to buy goods produced away from the coast he has had to obtain them through two or three or sometimes half a dozen middlemen. This will all be done away with under the new policy. “Naturally one of the first needs of the enlarged travel that will result is cheap transportation. To supply this will be the object of the new company. Everything depends upon obtain:ng a charter from the royal Government, and there are positive assurances that such charter will be granted.” Rumors are afloat that the Siemens & Halske Electric Co. of America will be in the combination. Treasurer Block of that company said that he could not discuss the matter. SPANISH WRECKS ABANDONED. No Further Effort Will Be Made to Save Cervera’s Ships. WASHINGTON, Nov. 2.—The Navy De- nartment practically decided to abandon wrecking operations under existing con- tracts on the Spanish cruisers Cristobal Colon, Vizcaya and Almirante Oquendo near Santiago which have been rather ex- pensive to the Government and approve the recommendation in part at least of Naval Constructor Hobson and other naval of- ficers who have been superintending the work of rescuing these vessels. The de- partment has reached the conclusion that the Vizcaya and Almirante Oquendo will probably never be rescued, and the Cristo- bal Colon, if saved at all, will not be brought to the United States by the Mer- ritt & Chapman Wrecking Co. of New Yerk, whieh had been working on this vessel under a special contract involving the pay- ment of $829.25 a day since July 29, without visibly improving the chances of that ves- sel's salvage. —_- —— SANTIAGO IS DOING WELL. Custom Receipts in October $9000 Over Same Time Last Year. SANTIAGO, Nov. 2.—Walter A. Donald- son, Collector of Customs, has filed a report of the results of the customs in the prov- ince of Santiago. The report shows re- ceipts from all sources of customs in Octo- ber to be $44,227, an increase of more than $900 over last year in Santiago alone, de- spite the greatly reduced tariff charges. To this add $107,732, brought over from August, and it shows a great increase in customs under the present system, though with a reduced fariff. It is shown by the figures for October that t.e receipts: for Santiago, in round numbers, are $1,000; for Guantanamo, $5300; for Manzanillo, $3300; a total o% $69,600 TEXAS FOR THE PENSION.

The Democratic State Committee Wed- mesday issued an address to Missourians. It follows: To the People of Missonur: The Republican-party managers in this State bave, in this campaign, repeated their folly of 18¥2 by asealling Democratic management of State af fairs and undertaken a defense of the record of their own party during the brief, but corrupt, period in which they controlled the terests of our commonwealth. The Democracy of our State welcomes the issue and gladly submits to the verdict of honest citl- gens the record of the two parties. This record, briefly summarized, shows that dur- ing the eix years of Kepublican misrule securities belonging to the State, aggregating more than $20,000,000, were corruptly sygvandered and the people compelied to pay, iu taxes, that enormous eunmj, every dollar of which should have been paid by the railroads of the State. This same record Ghows that Kepublicans ta bigs authority, for a money consideration, placed this burden upon the people. It shows that during this reign of reckless misruje, unparalleled ia the history of represent ative goverumeut, bonded debts were placed on many counties throughout the State, aggregating many millions of dollars, for which the people re- celved nothing, and which subjected them to the most unjust and outrageous burdens. This record also shows that so recklessly corrupt was the Re- publican rule in our State that the rate of taxa- tion was placed at double what it is to-day in order to meet the profligate expenses of our govern- ment. It shows that so reckless was this mismanage- ment that, although our State bonds were bearing and 7 per cent interest, they were discredited in the market and sold at a discount of nearly 30 cents on the dollar. It shows that fortunes were made by those in authority through the collection end retention of fees, which, under Democratic control, go into the State Treasury. It shows tbat when intrusted with power the Republican party managers were proscriptive and intolerant. as well as recklessly corrupt “ We repeat, Democrats gladly welcome a ventila- tion of State records. They challenge any State in the Union to produce ‘a more recklessly corrupt regime than existed in this State during Repub- lican control; or one with better business methods, etricter integrity, or more thorough and impartial enforcement of the law than has existed througb- out Democratic contre). When the Democracy was restored to power in Missouri it found the State burdened with a debt of over $21,000,000, our bonds at a discount, al- though bearing a heavy rate of interest, while our taxes for State purposes were 45 cents on the hundred dollars. To-day this indebtedness has heen reduced $3,700,000, bearing 34% per cent interest: and al- most before the year of 1900 has come and gone the last dollar of this indebtedness will have been aid. While effecting this reduction in our bonded ndebtedness, the Democracy, by strict economy and the exercise of intelligent business control, bas reduced the tax rate to 25 cents; and this will be followed, within the next year or two, by a etill further reduction of 10 cents, leaving the State tax only 15 cents on the hundred dollars. No other State in the Union presents so splendid a record. We submit that, in view of the Republican mis- rule in this State, which the Republican party managers-this year indorsed, no citizen who de- aires good government, who desires a faithful and bonest discharge of public duties, should vote to restore to power those who indorse the outrageously corrupt methods which characterized officia) life in this State from 1864 to 1870. We call attention to the significant fact that the Republican State Convention was dominated this year by those who undertook to fasten upon the City of St. Louls a Donded indebtedness five times eater than that now carried by the State of issourl, iargely for the purpose of filing the kets of werd heelers. But for the uprising of he people of the metropolis of our State, the reign of corrvption which prevailed at our State Capitol during Republican misrule would have been repeated in the city of St. Louis, under the existing city regime. We have the right to look to the people, regard- jess of party affiliation, who dread bended in- debtedness and high taxes, to join with us in Mis- sour!, this year, in burying under an avalanche of honest ballots those who in State convention have indorsed Fletcherism and Ziegenheinism. To the Democrats of Missouri, and to those who so patriotically contributed to our great vic- tory in 1896 in this State, we send assurances of a coming triumph. Hanna's trade mark can not be placed on honest Missourians. The principles for , which we made our splendid fight two years ago are imbedded in the hearts of our people. Mis- eourl stands to-day the foremost Democratic State in the Union. She will not surrender in this year's etruggle one fota of the prestige she won in our last national contest. The most trustworthy information, derived from every county in the State, gives us absolute assur- ance of the triumphant election of our State ticket and of each congressional candidate outside of the city of St. Louls. The conditions in the city of St. Louls warrant us in the belief that we will reci@essiy in- to MAGICIAN HERMANN’S TRICK. What’s In It? TO FILL VACANCIES. A. McDonald Fixed On by the Independents. Had the authority of the Independent Re- publican Committee to fill the vacancies on their ticket been sustained the names of | Messrs. John A. Harrison and Jesse A. Mc- Donald would have been added as nominees for the Circuit bench. 1 The withdrawal of the Republican nomi- nees for the Circuit bench was a surprise to the erganizers of the Independent move- ment. They felt that nominees for judicial positions should not take part in faction fights, but should regard an unsought nom- ination as an honor. They are bitterly accused by the Inde- pendents of lending respectability to the City Hall gang's fight against the independ- ent Republicans, whose platform was puri- fication of the party in St. Louis.

Fisher, on the Republican ticket, and Jesse A. McDonald, on the Democratic ticket, are members of the Hoosier State organization. Mr. McDon- ald comes from old Scotch stock that set- iled in Indiana in early days. The St. Louis Hoosiers will straddle party lines to vote for both of their fellow-Indlanians and divide on the other names on the tickets. INDEPENDENT MEETINGS. Filley and Judge Murphy Will Be the Principal Speakers. Several large meetings in the interest of the Independent-Citizens’ ticket will be held Wednesday night. At Eleventh and Franklin avenue addresses will be delivered by Chauncey I. Filley, Judge David Mur- phy, Coroner Wait and others. At Masonic Hall, Seventh and Market streets, Dr. David O. Scott, the indepen- dent candidate for Congress, will speak and will be followed by one of the other speakers from the Franklin avenue meet- ing. Filley and Murphy will speak also at Military Hall, Twelfth and North Market streets. ALL QUESTIONS SETTLED. Election Board Has Had a Merry Run Through the Courts. All the difficulties that beset the Election Comm'ssioners as a result of appeals to the courts by candidates, and political mana- gers to secure changes in ballots, which a pendent-Citizens’ ticket must fill up about ten vacant places on that ballot. The third difficulty was the attempt of the Baumhoff committee in the Twelfth District to get Dr. Scott, the candidate, off the ticket They resorted to the courts, but succeeded only in preventing him from going under the caption ‘‘Independent-Re- publican ticket.”” He will run under the caption, ‘“‘nominated by electors.’’ Eleven tickets will be presented to voters for their Consideration on election day. They are: Democratic, Republican, Inde- pendent-Citizens, three Populist—one of which is nominated by electors—Socialist- Labor, Soctal-Democracy, Prohibition, In- dependent-Repubdlican and ‘‘Nominated by Electors.”’ Not all the tickets are complete, and for that reason the ballots offer a fine oppor- tunity for intelligent scratchers. But the voter who doesn’t know how to scratch js liable to lose his vote if he attempts it. The political situation is anomalous and beyond the ken of the best. prophets, though there is no lack of reckless guessers. NUGGETS FROM FILLEY. Anchor Old Republican Leader at Hall Tuesday Night. Mr. Filley spoke to a big audience at Anchor Hall, Jefferson and Park avenues, Tuesday night in the interest of the Inde- pendent-Citizens’ movement. ' Among other things he said: “I wish it understood that I am not in this fight for any man. Personally I am eliminated. What I do want is to help you and to help every decent citizen of St. Louis rescue the muni- cipal government of this great city from the grasp of a gang of plundering thieves!” ‘TIT want to see at least one of the Ten Commandments enforced by the municipal government of St. Louis. I want to see the Commandment, “Thou shalt not steal’ into effect. ‘‘When the stealing stops at the City Hall the gang will disperse of its own accord and a respectable city government will be- come possible. " ‘“T am not fighting the Republican party. T am fighting the Adam Zegenheins, the Norman Floershe'ms, the Julius Wurzbur- gers, the Henry Beschs and the F. Muel- lers. ‘“The City Hall thieves are fighting the Republican party, for they have disgraced it in St. Louis, and they will continue to prostitute its name, a name I have lived and fought¢for for 35 years. “They have singled me out and honored me with their special hhatred simply _ be- cause I would not wear the Ziegenhein- Wurzburger-Floersheim dog collar about my throat. “Last spring Mr. Ziegenhein, standing in my office, with his hand _ outstretched, swore to me that he meant to kill off every attempt at jobbery under his administra- tion. Has he kept that promise? “Charter amendments, eh? “Central. Traction, eh? “Lindell franchise,grab, F. Mueller, straw inspectors and all the other steals which have been perpetrated! Let them answer put ' favor in return for their tacit support of, that disgraceful plank. “If you wish to indorse the Charter Amendments steal, the North and South steal, and all the other steals, stay with ‘Yulius und de poys’ and you will be snowed under so badly Nov. 8 that you will never crawl out.”’ Mr. Rabe’s Candidacy. J. H. Rabe, candidate for Congress in the Eleventh District, received the following letter on his candidacy from School Di- rector Brown: J. H. Rabe, Esq.—I have just recelved the cir- cular announcing your candidacy for the nomina- tion for Congress in the Eleventh District. I do not know what your politics are, but if the voters of your district want a man of your politics to rep- resent them, I congratulate them on having an any of selecting such a eatisfactory candi- ate. I cannot believe that it is any more difficult to make a success as a Congressman than it is to succeed ‘as principal of an eighth-grade school, and since you have made a marked success as prin- cipal of the Irving School, I must conclude that you would not be a failure in Congress. Your work in the Irving School shows that you are a level- headed, clear-minded, industrious, capable and business-like manager of children, teachers ab course of study, and the school system of St. Louis would suffer a serious loss in your departure from your present field of usefulness. The attributes which you have shown in your Management of the Irving School are the same which ought to make of you an ideal representa- tive, if you show in that vocation the same zeal for the public welfare which you have shown in the Irving. And while ¢t should regret to lose you aa prin- cipal, I- wish you every success in your new éD- terprise. Very truly yours, WILLI BROWN, Member St. Louis Board of Education. BEATEN BY FOOTPADS. Edward Walton Badly Used Up Early Wednesday Morning. Edward Walton of 2643 Chippewa street fought a running battle with two footpads shortly after midnight. The robbers attacked Walton on Utah street, near Seventh street. They knocked him down and demanded his money. He arose and leveled a gun at his assailants. A moment later he fired a shot, which did not have effect. ‘The robbers were un- armed, but they gathered a handful of stones and pelted him most brutally. Wal- ton fled, running to Broadway and thence to Zepp street, firing at his pursuers as he ran. Meanwhile they kept on pelting him with stones, After running several blocks Walton stumbled and fell. The footpads overtook him and kicked him before he could get up. The robbers took their victim’s pistol, but it was of no service to them, as all the shells had been discharged. Walton’s cries attracted the attention of several belated pedestrians and the robbers fled without booty. Walton went to the South Side Dispensary, where his injuries were attended. CHIGAGO DRAINAGE.

In accordance with the suggestion made by the Board of Directors of the Merchants’ Exchange, a member of each of the organ- izations named has beeg selected to be recommended to Mayor Ziegenhein for ap- pointment as members of the committee, whose duty it shall be to look into the mat- ter of the probable effect upon the waters of the Mississippi River and upon the health of the people of St. Louis, when the Chicago Drainage Canal is completed, and the outflow comes into the Mississippi River from the Illinois River.

GEORGE W. REYNOLDS DEAD. Passing Away of a Well-Known Insur- ance Adjuster. Mr. George W. Reynolds of 4103 Delmar boulevard died at his residence Wednesday morning after a long illness of Bright's disease. Mr. Reynolds was very well known and popular in business circles. He was a fire insurance adjuster, and in that capacity has acted for nearly all the large insurance houses in the city.

Bride of a New York Artist Returns With Her Husband From a Honey- moon Tour to Find Her Mother Unconscious and Dying in the Old Home. NEW YORK, Nov. 2.—Mrs. Harry Rose- land, the bride of an artist, came home from her wedding tour with her husband to find her mother dying in brilliantly lighted rooms of the old home where she had been uneonscious for four days. Mrs. Whitney, the mother, was yet alive but did not re- cover to recognize her daughter, Whitney and daughter had resided time in apartments in 96 Macon Brooklyn. Unable to receive any response to knocking or to discover the whereabouts of Mrs. Whitney, Mr. and Mrs. Roseland had the doors broken in, to find the mother on the floor. A half hour later she died. Her ailment was diagnosed as Bright's disease. Mrs. Whitney had, after her daughter's departure, taken precautions to prevent a burglary. She had fastened the windows with screws, and had geo several appli- ances designed to foil house-breakers on the doors. There was nothing about the appearance of the apartments to indicate that a crime had ben committed, but the police, nevertheless are making a quiet in- vestigation.

CHICAGO, IIL, Nov. 2.—Students at Northwestern University in Evanston are about to become proficient in the art of getting married, or Prof, Cummock of the School of Oratory will know the reason why. So far there is nothing except the bare announcement that there {1s to be in- struction in the general art of matrimony under the supervision of Prof. Cummock. There will be, of course, mock marriages, but beyond that nothing is known. It is the will include a lovemaking branch. in a co-educational institution the students can take care of that themselves. The groom will be taught to plunge Into his vest pocket for the mng and get it at the first attempt.

It is as yet unknown whether the course will include instruction relative to proper behavior after marriage. —— . te tt ee — ————— you whether Mr. Ziegenburger, the Mayor, has kept the promise he made to me and to every man- who voted for him. “You Know he asked’ myself and others to revise the pruposed charter amend- ments. Well, we revised them, but the Mayor took the amendments and our revis- ion and had them revised and re-revised Until they suited Yulius and Norman Zie- genburger and all the other members of the City Hall gang. He fixed 'em so there was something in it for de poys,’ didn’t he? And a majority of 33,000 voters fixed ’em so there wasn't something in it for the boys, didn't they?

Judge Withrow heard the unhappy story of the married life of Lena and Nathan Kohn Wednesday. . They were married in 1889, and Mrs. Kohn charges that he mistreated her from the firet. She told the court that before she married Kohn he told of the happy home they would have, and how he would come to her after every payday and place his check fn her hands. , “Well, did he do it?” asked Judge With- with the suspicion of a amile. Kohn blazed up at. once. _ sir: not once did he do it,’ ahe cried vehemently. “‘Not once, #8)r. There was a broad smile on the court s face, and the defendant, sitting among his lawyers, laughed audibly. Other allegations were cruelty and finally absolute neglect. Kohn is an employe of the Missourl Pa- cific P«*'raad, é, | the campaign had been to keep him in the background as much as possible. The Republican managers, realizing that the heavy fight would be made by the com- bined opposition on the Mayor and the City Hall gang, decided they would do all pos- sible to create the impression among voters that the Mayor and his gang had nothing to do with the campaign. He was allowed to make a few speeches at small meetings, where his presence would not be widely known. It was but natural, therefore, that when the announcement Was made that the May- or would preside over the biggest meeting in the campaign, and a meeting, too, al Music Hall, there should be a protest. Following this protest it was expected the Executive Committee at its meeting Wednesday morning would change the pro- grainme and substitute somebody else not identified with the odoriferous City Hall gang for the Mayor as chairman of the meeting. If thig were done !t would be equivalent to a r@pudiation of the Mayor and the gang, and it is probable the Mayor and his followers would not stand for it. At any rate the commiltee took no action on the matter, and the Mayor wil] probably preside. od CLAIM THEY ARE REGULAR. Independents Pleased With the Court of Appeals Decision. Filley’s followers are jubilant over the de- cision of the Cougt of Appeals the Foers- Maj. Pearce was nominated at a convention that was irregular. The primary at which delegates to that convention were selected was called by a committee which had no legal standing, and which really did not ex- ist under the law. “Instead of being the bolters, we are the regulars. We are completely vindicated, It is only a pity the decision did not come sooner, so that the Republicans of the dis- trict could have had a regular candidate.” INITIALS OF THE JUDGES. Secretary Saunders Denies the Right of Use of a Rubber Stamp. Secretary Saunders of the Board of Elec- tion Commissioners denies the correctness of the position taken by Attorney-General Crow and Secretary of State Lesueur, who hold that the judges of election may put their Initials on the ballots with’ rubber stamps. Mr. Saunders says he is supported by opinions given by Supreme Judge Marshail and City Counselor Schnurmacher in the contention that the judges must write their Initials with a pen or indelible pencil. He quotes the law to the effect that the initials must be written. The Election Commissioners will furnish the judges with indelible pencils at this election and no rubber stamps will go in St. Louis, DISTINGUISHED DEMOCRATS.

IS NO INDIVIDUALITY IN IT. Director Schwab of the Chicago Schools Here Collecting Facts to Fight the Vertical in His City. Director Albert Greene of the. School Board may reopen the question of penman- ship in the schools as a result of the visit to St. Louis of Director Joseph Schwab of the Chicago schools. Chicago, Ike St. Loui’, uses the vertical writing system in its curriculum, but so many objections have arisen to the innova- tion that a movement to reinstate the Spen- cerian system has arisen. Director Schwab is the father of a resolution, in the cause of which he is now gathering data here. It aims at the abolition of the vertical style. Director Greene said to a Post-Dispatch reporter: “The vertical system has been tried and found wanting. it: was a-mistake to in- troduce it, and the sooner we do away with it the better it will be for our chil- dren. Individuality is needed in hand writ- ing, and the new style, labored, exact and painfully .uniform, is not practicable in these busy modern times. Complaints have come to me from parents, and J] have told them to see the superintendent about it, I fought the scheme in commit- tee, but I was sick, at home, when the board acted on ft. “Director Schwab told me that there was much criticism of the new style arising in Chicago, and I am _é =~*rot surprised.

FOLLY OF TEMPTATION. Sikes Thinks He Provoked Trouble by Showing Money. Harry Sikes, aged 28, a canvasser, who for several days had been making his home at the Salvation Army lodging house, vows he will never exhibit money again when in the presence of men who are none too familiar with the product of the Unit- ed States mint. He says now he ought to have known better. Tuesday night he wandered to a near-by saloon, bought a drink and tendered a half dollar in payment. On reaching the street near the lodging house he was knocked down by a negro and his face so badly disfigured that he had to seek treatment at the City Hospital. INTERVENING PETITIONS.
