The lawmakers of the Commonwealth, the men who are legally the State of Mis- sourl, assembled in social union, gave hear- ty sanction to the proposed commemora- tion of the Louisiana Purchase. The assemblage was of the kind that Mis- sourlt boasts of; men of brains, with eloquence to speak their, thoughts; men of enterprise, with the good of the community in their plans; a democratic gathering, none in homespun, but few in the fashion- dictated dress suit; representatives of Mis- sourt, the Imperial, and of St. Louis, her metropolis, all in accord on the proposition before them; the perpetuation of one of the nation’s historical epochs, the acquiring of the et Middie West by the United States in 1803. Except the few who were detained at the capital by the press of other public busi- ness all the State officers and the Llaegis- lature were present, interested participants in the discussion of the ways and means for the great Fair. The city’s guests, for whom the World's Fair Executive Committee acted as hosts, arrived at Union Station from the State capital,on a special train at 6:30 o'clock. hey were met by the Reception Commit- tee headed by Mayor Ziegenhein and ex- Gov. Francis. In harmony with the Jef- fersonian simplicity of the whole affair the visitors were taken to the Mercantile Club in street cars instead of in rubber-tired carriages. The visitors gathered in the assembly hall on the fifth floor where the hosts from , the cliy met and fraternized with them. ‘Arm in arm, hosts and guests marched up the stairway to the banquet hall on the flocr above at about ®& o'clock. The beautiful banquet hall of the Mer- cantile Club never presented a more invit- ing appearance than it did last night when fits light and color and shimmer and sparkle of glass burst upon the gaze of Mis. Fourl’s lawmakers as they marched into it. following the lead of ex-Gov. D. R Francis. Small tables, each seating eight persons. were arranged closely over the floor. Each was a blaze of Nght reflected from glass and shining upon snowy linen. In the cen- ter of each stood a vase filled with carna- Yons. From each pillar hung circles of red, White and blue lights. Over the door were draped the stars and stripes, while above the long table reserved for the toastmaster and distinguished guests hune a long national flag. At the east end of the hali was stretched the long table reserved for the State officers and more distinguished guests. lt wes a brilliant assemblage. center of the long table sat ex-Gov. rancis, the toastmaster.

Francis arose and tapped upon the table. The buaz of conversation ceased. The epeech of the toastmasier Was »with the heartiest applause. One, unin- ftiated, would have supposed from the gen- lerosity of the applause, indicating the in- tereat of the auditors, that all wetp per- sonally interested In the success of the Fair. Gov. Francis’ speech follows: “On the 10th of Maroh, 184, just © years ago yesterday, on the banks of the great river that flows by our door and with.n a few blocks of where we etand, jurisdic- tion over the land tn which we now dwell was transferred from France to the United Biates, the flags of ain and France were haul down and the stars and stripes Were run up, never to be lowered. Mhe people cheered, the troops saluted and amid the booming of cannon and the strains of martial music the American Repub! ¢« con- summated the formal occupation of the agnificent empire bought from the great KN. sleon by the immortal Jefferson. “Robert tf LAvingstone, who, with Mon- foe, had negotiated the purchase. said, n the i of the articles: ‘We have ved Lone, wat the noblest work of a w? , = nmmertaill ¢ of the fret ri ge Fi abe ‘Prom thin day the ‘te inst ramen Celery, Olives, (lgars te we bnited powets. | SOUT _anS who are | in @ny equa) | Terr tory ti nited States. rece’ yed | erable generations of human creatur Mississ ppi and Missouri will see ata ame ceed one another and multiply, truly worthy of the regard of Providence i; the bosom of equality, under just ; freed from the errors of ers and the scourges of bad government.’ “That was the Livingstone, who. as Chancellor of the State of (New York. had aagministered the oath of office to Wash- ington upon hfs Inauguration as first Pres- ident of the Republic; the same who, with Thomas Jefferson, Benjamin Franklin, Roger Sherman and John Ad- ams, had constituted the committee of five appofited by the memorable Continental Congress of 1776 to draft the Declaration of Independence, “His startling predictions were far-sizht- ed, indeed. but R sobes were not overwrought. Not a decade had passed before the young Republic was engaged in a merciless war with the mother country; within thirty years thereafter followed a bloody strug.- gle with (Mexico; then after a lapse of about a dozen years came the bitter civil strife that shook to its very founation this splen- did governmental structure.

If no more should be accomplished been done there would lost.’ “To have become imbued with a know!l- eige of the wonderful products of these valleys and mountains, and inspired with a conviction of their still greater possibilities, is ample reward for all efforts made. But our work is not yet fairly begun. The eyes of the country are directed toward us, Our promises, made at the national capital two weeks ago to-night, startled the legis- lative and executive branches of the Fed- eral Government, and arrested the atten- tion of the entire country. Representative men from the different States of the Pur- chase, men of thought and influence. who have made their imprint on the laws ot the land and on the policies of political parties, told a distinguished audience how the Purchase of Jefferson was frought with consequences of great import, not only to our institudions and our whole people, but to humanity itself. In well chosen words and with touching pathos did those experi- enced legislators and leaders of opinion portray the wisdom and the significance of Jefferson's inimitable expansion, They dwelt with unanimity and with emphasis on the advisability of fitly commemorating so great an event, and concluded with one voice that its hundredth anniversary should be marked by such an exposition as the world had never seen eurpassed nor equaled. The delegation authorized to speak for St. Louis on that occasion pledged this city to be no ‘love’s lavor do its best. and you do not need to be as- | sured that St. Louls’ best is second to none.

The delegation said that the people of St. Louls were desirous to do their full ehare toward celebrating this Sreat centennial and felt thighly honored that it had been selected as the scene of such a celebration; that such selection was a great compliment to the most populous, ‘he wealthiest, the first State of the Pur- chase—Missouri—whose resources are un- paralleled and unapproachable.

PLIGHT GROWS MORE PITIABLE. WITH MORE FOOD. Another Storm Has Set in, and Though ea Hundred Soldiers Join the Shovelers All Fear for the Worst. CHEYENNE, Wyo., March 4.—For 16 days 43 passengers and the train crew on a north-bound train on the Cheyenne & Northern road have been snowed in at Iron Movuntain Station and the time of their release is to-night more ine doubt than at any previous date. A message was received from Supt. Ras- bach, who is in charge of the train, says ‘that all are well on board the train, but that the supply of food will not last until Sunday. A relief train carry’‘hg provisions left here Friday night, but dt is feared the bliz- zard now raging will seriously retard, if not prevent the passage of the relief train, as the cuts along the road are again rapidly | fill'nge up. Little prov'sion has reached the snow- bound men and women, only what could be carrie din sacks on the backs of intrep- id and stalwart men. Many have en- deavored to reHeve the sufferers, but only the most hardy could make their way, and all imperile] the'r lives. Of the scores who | have sought to reach the train not over a half-dozen have accomipl'shed the trip. Among these was Supt. Rasbach. The imprisoned travelers have conse- quently gone on short rations, though small help has been afforded by slaughter of a few cattle on a near-by farm, but now worse privation, if not absolute starvation, faces them. All the efforts of the railroad |}company with the most powerful locomo- tives and rotary snow plows have been un- able to make an appreciable dent on the snow which packed in the cuts almost as solid as ice. The only hope has rested on shovelers. At least three times in the 16 days it was thought that the work of the hundreds had progressed almost sufficient- ly to allow a locomotive to break through and clear a perfect way for the fettered train, but each time hope was shattered by the coming of another heavy snowfall. Now another storm, gy hich in prospect is as bad as any of the winter is on, and if the discouragement on the outside is felt | proportionately by the locked-in people, they are indeed in a pitiable condition. But efforts of rescue will not be slack- To-morrow 100 colored soldiers of the Twenty-fourth Infantry at Fort Rus- sell, who have volunteered to go out as shovelers, will set to work under the di- rection of Mayor Schnitger of Cheyenne and Attorney Breckons, of the Colorado and Southern. Unless the weather bureau is greatly mistaken, however, it will be impossible for them to reach the impris- oned train for days.

WALKER BEING ENGAGED. He Was One of the Contestants, and When He Shot an Attorney He Was in Beturn Wounded _by Another. BRISTOL, Tenn., March 11.—The taking of depositions to-day in the: contest of W. F. Rhea, Congressman-elect of the Ninth Tennessee Dfstrict, and Gen. James A. Walker, former Congressman of the dis- trict, resulted in a shooting affray in which W. 8S. Hamilton, attorney of Judge Rhea, was mortally wounded and Gen. Walker was shot twice. The recent election in the district was one of the most bitterly contested in years. Feeling ran high for months and since the success of Rhea on the face of the returns the antagonism of the contestants and of their friends has grown more bitter each day. So intense has the partisanship grown that party lines have been tangled till scarce a citizen knows just what his politics are, and even families have been divided over the question of to whom the office be- longed. The plurakity for Rhea, as shown by the returning board, was* but small, and ex- tensive charges of fraud have been freely mrade by the supporters of Walker. Tt was over remarks regarding one of these charges, made during the swearing of wit- nesses to-day, that affront was taken and the deadly fight was begun. Gen. Walker was conducting his own case in the contest prel'minaries and became engaged in a wordy warfare with Attorney Hamilton. It is said by eye-witnesses of the trouble that Hamilton advanced on Walker in a threatening manner and that the General drew his revolver and began firing with promptitude. Only one shot from Gen. Walker’s revolver struck, but it is announced to-night that Hamilton cannot possibly recover. An instant after Gen. Walker had drawn his revolver G. E. Davis, private secretary of Judge Rhea, joined in the affray. He, too, drew a revolver, and fired as rapidly at Walker as the General fired at Hamilton. Both men emptied their revolvers, and when the firing ceased and the scared wit- nesses, commissioner and attorney, dared to venture back to the courtroom, from which they had fled in panic, Hamilton was found lying on the floor, apparently dead. He was shot in the abdomen. Gen. Walker was still standing, support- ing himself by leaning against the Judge's bench, but he was faint from loss of blood. Two bullets from Davis’ revolver had ploughed through his right shoulder, Davis, with empty revolver, was standing beside the wall, apparently watching for Gen. Walker to drop to the floor. The difficulty was brought on by a wit- ness who made very offensive remarks about Walker. tap ee ee eee eS ee ey eee ae ad ae oe OES ee “ Se ‘ 2 ¥ ; knew about Moran and his accomplices. From the story Miss Seligman told, both Chief of Police Campbell and Chief of De- tectives Desmond believe she was the object of another “great diamond robbery.” They think there was a plot to rob her of her jewels, and that having failed, the con- Spirators mentioned her name to the police aS &@ guarantee that they were in St. Louls on another “‘job’’ and hence did not have anything to do with the Hotel Beers rob- bery, in the unlooked for developments of the Seligman-Bryan implications the Police De- partment fairly lost sight of the troubles of Mr. Highleyman. Up to Saturday midnight his lost gems had not been traced. Mr. Highleyman himself was so taken back at the disclosures that he forgot his own troubles and remained at the Four Courts until late in the afternoon to hear what he supposed would “sensational dis- be Building at 6 o'clock last night wondering where his case was “at.”’ In yesterday's Post-Dispatch there was printed a full account of the dlamond rob- bery at Hotel Beers. In brief, Mr. High- leyman, who is a tax commissioner for the Missouri Pacific road, living at the fashion- abie family hotel kept by and run under the name of Mrs. Beers at Grand av. and Olive su, Was robbed of jewels sometime during the day of March % The gems were valued at $1000. Mr. Highleyman re- ported his loss to the Police Department, and detectives were set to work to run down the theft.

Stripped of all verbosity and shreided of all partiality, Miss Seligman’s aceount of -her dealings with Moran would indicate “that ehe hed been made a “‘mark’’ by two ‘clever men, The said men, according to her, wére presented with eclat and cere- mony By Dr. David Clarendon Bryan, house oe bony n of the Lindell Hotel, at which ouse Mise Seligman has been staying. Dr. Bryan @isclaims any conne@ton with the air as vehemently as he disclaims any ~ ty n with the Indianapolis divorce euit of Dr. David Cardell Bryan. In each case the Doctor is fiatly contradicted, but Py of no consequence just at this mo- nt. There was nothing theatric, nothing ar- tificial, about Minnie Seligman as she told her story in Chief of Police Campbell's of- fice Pvery word she uttered was coldly spoken and in tones of honesty. If she be- A br any effort it was in restraining her- self from what most women do in trying circumstances. That is to weep, to give Way under excitement and distress. “Dr. Bryan came to me,”’ she said, ‘‘and asked that he might present an igfluential friend. He said his friend was himself wealthy, and having been impressed with my work in the theater, would be willing to do what he could to advance me profes- sionally. I accepted the tntroduction, It was toa Mr. Vallandingham I had dinner with Mr. Vallandingham, who one evce- ing confided to me that his friend, Mr. mes of Boston, would, if he gave the word, back me as a star in My own com- pany. He requested to introduce Mr, Ames, assuring me that he was one of the Bos- ton millionaires of that name. “This Mr. Ames was presented. Mr Val- landingham suggested that we buy the En- glish rights to produce the dramatization of Hali Caine’s novel, ‘The Christian.’ We had several conferences on the subject. All the while I believed the men were honest and trustworthy. It was at only the last meeting I began to be suspicious. They spoke of buying me diamonds, at the same time requesting to see those which I al- ready possessed. I showed them a eun- burst and some other jewels. I left the gems on my dresser, and then they pro- posed drinking a bottle of prepared coack- tall TI declined, and held out in my refusal until the men left me. I have not seen them since.’’ Chapple Moran corroborates Miss Selig- mans story in the main, denyin only that there was any intention to give her drink and rob her. “IT met Vallandingham at Hot Ark., two months ago,” he said. le came to St. Louls and fell in love with Miss Seligman. When I came here he asked mie to help him ‘make himself strong’ with her by being introduced as a ‘sucker from Boston with money.’ I helped him our, that’s all. That diamond flash in Miss Seligman'’s room was a bluff. Vallanding- ham wouldn't have asked me to play this ame he hadn't gone sore on this Dr. ryan at the Lindell. Bryan didn’t like Vallandingham’s attention to her and be- gan to ‘knock.’ Then Vallandingham asked me to play the stool pigeon and help him get even with the doctor."’ Vallandingham was with Moran on the train when the Chapple was arrested Fri- day night... He is now probably in Chicago. In Hot Springs and in other cities, New York probably, Vallandingham is _ also known as “Col. Powell,’ a citizen of any- where, who lives by his wits. He was a guest at the Planters’ until a day or tw» ago, when he left without the formality of an interview with the cashier. Moran 1s Springs, Campbell's office was condeluded. She ap- peared at the Grand last night as ° usual. Chapple Moran spent the magne in the holdover. He says he doggn't know what he ‘6 being held for, and at his greatest fear is that the lice department will rail- road him for six'momhs in jall. Moran came to 8t. Louis after a‘tong ab- sence for his health, the prescription hav- ing been donated by St. uls officials in the latter rt of last month. He went to the Hotel Beers on March 1 and reg'stered as Oliver Ames. On March 2 Mr. Highley- man’s diamnods were etolen. “Ames” re- mained two days later, and then gave up his room, though he did not take his trunk. lt was while on a trip to the hotel to in- quire for mail that the detectives spotted him. They kept watch on him all the time, delay‘ng arrest until they were more con.- fident of his guilt. The police say they are sure Moran is the diamond thief. Chapple Moran is a native of Liverpool, England. His proper name is Charies. He is about 27 years old, well-dreased and worldly. His first experience in St. Lou's was about six years ago, when he came here with a string of race horses. He had some fast ones in his stable, including The Drummer, a Hyder Ali colt, and Dr. Wil- cox, a full brother to Dr. Hasbrook. Liick went against him eventually, and the high- roller had to bethink h'mself to live in hia accustomed luxury. He turned “wire tapper.”’ The term is a joke when applied to the Moranesque methods. He merely called himseM a wire-tapper, and made all his money, 80 those who know him well say, by representing himself as a bold criminal who stole from the telegraph valuable in- formation pertaining to the race track. To the real wire-tapper and out-and-out crook Chapple Moran is a counterfeit. “He wouldn't tap a beer-keg, the white- hearted little beast,’’ is the way a former crony spoke of him at the Four Courts yesterday afternoon. Chappie’s game was always successful and profitable. Inasmuch as his victim be- came as much a criminal as himself, he has never been arrested for separating peo- ple from their money. A few years ago Chappie worked a prominent St, Louis fur- n'ture dealer for $600 and made $250 a6 easily as a Vanderbilt can sign a check. He showed the furniture man _ his set of telegraphic instruments, representing him- self as an expert operator. “I will tap the wire,”’ said Chappy, “and get the name of the winner of a certain race tn Chicago before it reaches the book- maker. Then I'll ive you the winning horse, and you Bg et on him and we'll divide the profits. It seemed an easy thing. The only risk being taken was by Chappy, and the furni- ture man volunteered to make the killing a $500 one. Chappy pretended to get his instrument in shape, but all the «time he was playing double. He went to a book- maker of his acquaintance and offered for half of the money to steer a bet of 3500 to the book which was sure to lose. The poolroom keeper joined the game and agreed not to call the result of the race until Chappy was posted. When the returns came in Chappy went to his victim and gave him as the winner the name of a horse which had finished about fifth or sixth. The furniture man, jublignt at “doing”’’ a poolroom, laid his cold $500 down on Chap- py’s tip. The results were called and an- other horse had won. The furniture man was wild. Chappy simply said his con- federate who was intercepting the informa. tion had read the wires incorrectly. The furniture man went off to plan revenge. Chappy went out in the ally and split $600 with the bookie. Chappy Moran married one of the daugh- ters of a Mrs. Bendscalder, who lives at 3519 Lindell bl. He says the ceremony was performed four years ago, and that he married under the name of Moran... His mother-in-law, however, says she doeg not know any one named Moran. pr.

Mayor Ziegenhein captured the legislators with his civic pride and particularly with his blunt way of putting it forward. He welcomed the visitors on behalf of 8t. Louis in his characteristic way, used much slang, many gestures and aroused great mirth and generous applause. The Mayor said there was no such word as ‘“‘can’t’’ in the dictionary; therefore, there could be no failure in the univergal desire of those present to make the World's Fair in St. Louis the grandest exposition of its kind ever held in the world. He assured the legislators that the city of St. Loubs would not ask anything of the State of Missouri that she did not know previously the great imperial State would readily grant. The city would do its share toward making the Fair the «uc- cess it should be, he said, and there was no doubt in the minds of the Fair Com- mittee that the State would do likewise. Kkx-Gov, Francis announced that Gov. Stephens had found it impossible to at- tend, and a:Ked Judge Jeff Pollard to read his letter of regret. It follows: ~ March 9. Chairman of the 1889. Hon. DPD. R.

My Dear Sir-Your esteemed favor of the &th inst... inviting me, on behalf of the Dinner Com- mittee, to attend the dinner on Saturday evening next at the Mereantile Club, given by the Execu- tive Committee of the Louisiana Puréhase Centen- nial to the State officers and Legislature of Mis- eourl, is before me The demands upon me just at this time are so great that I fear when Saturday comes something may occur to prevent me from accepting your invitation. Therefore, I beg leave to offer a suggestion for the consideration of your- eelf and others in attendance. To-day our State revenue fund is practically de- pleted, while at the same time we have in the treasury about $2.250,000. It is, therefore. all im- portant for use to devise methods of augmenting our revenue receipts before we can do anything for the St. Louls World's Fair celebration of the Louisiana Purchase Centennial; as you know, nove of the mopeys in any of the funds but the revenue fund coold be utllized for this purpose We all know that taxes of all kinds are burdensome and unpopular. The idea, therefore, is to raise a fund by a tax Which will fall on all alike and which will meet with as little opposition as possible. ‘fo kill two birds with one stone—to build up our revenue fund and to help the fair at the same time —I believe it would be advisable to levy a “il tax of $1 on 7 male citizen of Missouri of 21 years of « ana over. We poll about 600,000 votes. A bill could be eo framed that one-half of the receipts from this source would go into the ones fund and one-half into the World's Fair und. It would increase the revenue fund at least $00,000 in two years, and would enable us Ww Spowsostate a like amount to the Fair Amoe- it first occurred to me that it would be well to have the bill so framed that the voter would be compelled to produce this poll tax receipt be- fore be wus allowe!l to vote, but tien I Gnd this wanoconst w be thie matter consiceration and me views. ie it meets with year ae tee ¢ aod , Be ee Am aia ; ; at & . - Pom - om Ae ke “ 4% hee a a ae 2, ne FOR > Tr a SS eae ee ae PEAR Rg Na Ts Nolita ee ag ee eee Re en /harness and ibe disappointed.

At the conclu- sion of the regular business informal ad- dresses of welcome were made to the dis- tinguished clergyman. Father McFadden’s mission to America is to collect funds for the erection of a new cathedral in the Diocese of Raphoe Of the project the priest says: “TAke, the rest of their countrymen the Catholics of Donegal have ever scorned to lay the part of persecutors themselves. gut they were among the very last in Ireland to give up the fight for their in- dependence of their native land and free- dom or religion, and consequently they suf- fered the most and are to-day among the poorest of the Irish people.” One week from to-day 8t. Louis will be arayed in the colors of old Erin. Already the green flags.and ee: are in evidence. The sons and friends of Ireland will turn out en masse to make the parade a memor- able success.

THIS WILL BE A DRY SUNDAY. Still, Certain Saloonkeepers Have De- vised a Plan Whereby the Thirsty May Get Drinks. The police say that this will be the “‘dry- est’’ Sunday known in St. Louis for many a day. The saloon men say they don’t know apout that; In fact, they hold different views. Chief of Police Campbell yesterday gave additional instructions to this men. The Downing law must be enforced all over the city, he said, and bars must be kept closed, At the same time a number of saloon men had formed a pool and had promul- gated the workings thereof to such as are known as good customers, It is this: Barkeepers will be ‘‘on duty” in a num- ber of places all day. Front and side doors will be locked and curtains drawn. To the faithful there has been given a signal, a certain knock that he who wishes a drink must give on window or door. On hearinme this knock the bartender will peep from behind the curtain. If he who signals is deemed ‘‘all right,”’ the door will be opened, the thirsty person admitted and the door closed again. The saloon men claim the police cannot make a case unless they see a man drink at the bar. This will be impossible, they say, under the arrangement planned, SHE PROVED SHE WAS HONEST. But Mrs. Lydia Humphrey’s Watch Has Gone With a Sharper. Mrs. Lydia Humphrey of 3315 Manchester av., was an easy victim for a sharper yes- terday. The man, who is described as about B years old, 5 feet 10 inches tall, weighing 165 pounds, and having a heavy black mus- tache and being well dressed, told Mrs. HHumphrey he had a position to offer her, ®ut first she must deposit some kind of se- ourity to convince him she was all right. She was honest and she knew it. To con- vince the man she deposited her gold watch and chain. He waa to return at noon yes- terday but at night he had not been seen, ‘Mrs. Humphrey suspected that she had been victimized. When she related the in- cident to Capt. Peter Joyce he knew it and he instructed his men to look for the sharper. HE WAS ON BOARD THE HIST. Harry Hitner Lectured at Y. M. O. A. Hall Last Night. Harry L.

Several Men Made Prisoners, Amorg the Number John Thomas Brady. Two of Maj. William Desmond's detect- ives risked their lives last night by swing- | ing themselves by a rope from the roof of a four-story building to raid a poker game at 914% Olive st. The game was conducted in a room on the third floor rear. John Thomas Brady, who is alleged to be gamekeeper, and eight other players were arrested and taken to the Four Céurts, where they were released on bond furnished by James H. Cronin. The raid was participated in by De- tectives Dowdall, Schmidt, Bambrick and McKenna. The detectives waited until the game was in full Dlast before they began operations. Bambrick and Schmidt stationed them- selves in the front entrance to bar escape that way. Dowdall and McKenna got upon the roof through aescuttle hole and fastened a rope around a chimney. Then Dowdall lowered himself hand over hand until his foot rested on the ledge of a window that opened into a hall on the same floor on which the game was in progress. He Stepped on the inside and gave McKenna the signal to follow. The fierce wind that was blowing prevented any noise they may have made from being heard. They crept toward the room and in a turn to the hall they met Charley Vost, a “‘piker,” who had been stationed there to warn the players of the approach of the police. The detec- tives got the drop on Vost and did not per- mit him to give the alarm. They searched him and took the keys from him. Vost was turned over to Bambrick and Schmidt and Dodwall and McKenna en- tered the room. So intent were the players on their game that they did not observe the intruders. They kept on with the game and the detectives saw that the game was for large gtakes, more than $1000 being on the table. The men were taken completely by surprise and the paraphernalia was ap- propriated. At the pglice station the players following names: William H. illiams, Harry Johnson, William Jameson, Fred Willson Harry Miller, Max MBrossel and John insey. They will be sent to the police court to-morrow. DEATH OF WM. H. GRAHAM. Years Ago He Was a Partner of Wi1- liam H,. Thompson and Recently Was in Plumbing Business. ave the William H.

The Utah Legislature, after vainly trying to elect a Senator for several weeks, adjourned without action and the State will be without full representation in the Senate until the mext Legislature is elected. Delaware, Pennsylvania and California are still struggling with the problem, but with little prospect of election in either. ‘ These three States are the especial victims of boodle politics, Addicks in Delaware, Quay in Pennsylvania and Grant and Burns in California, stand for everything that is objectionable in public life, yet they have dead-locked the Legislatures and obstructed public business for months. When men of the character of these worthies are able to thwart the public will and impose themselves upon the Legis- latures to the infinite detriment of public buginess, it is not strange that popular movements, like that for the election of Senators by the people, gain in force and volume. Boodle is g0 far invincible. It remains to be seen whether it is stronger than an uncorrupted and ineorruptible electorate. > > _ oe rm «4 - THE ‘Gen. Henry says that the conditions in Porto Rico, where everything was supposed to be especially lovely in our ef- fairs, are alarming, and he is needing twice as mary troops as he has been allowed. The process of benevolent assimila- tion is everywhere being checked by the criminal aggression of our new subjects. -———*@ @-¢ i WANTED—A POET OF IMPERIALISM It has been ol-served that all the poets (alleged and other- wise) of the United States, discountenance imperialism and “nirger killing.” Pepecially is this noticeabie in the hundreds of imitations and parodies called out by Mr. Kipling’s ‘White Man’s Burden.” Fvery one of them ts a voice raised in protest against “crimi- nal aggression” and “benevolent assimilation.” Other poems which do not hang thus upon the Englishman's peg are equally emphatic in the plea for the good old ways of Ameri- can peace. - Ts it not significant? If there were right or justice in this Syndicate warfare wouldn't it touch somebody’s heart, and wouldn't that heart vibrate in response in verse and song? We read no verse of this kind; we hear no song. Instead the ring of coin falls upon the ear, and the seductive arguments of philanthrophy and 5 per cent. Where is the poet of philanthrophy and 5 per cent? Where is the singer who will make benevolent assimilation the theme of inspiring song? > Remarkable City Government.—Mr. J. W. Martin of Lon- don, England, who lectured on city government at the Non- S4etarian Church Tuesday evening, made some very sur- prising statements. Thus, the price of gas in Glasgow has been lowered to di cents a thougand since the private com- pany turned the business oyer to the city. Street railways owned and operated by the city pay a large revenue to ‘the public: treasury and fares are cheaper than ever before.. The city owns large areas of lands on which model tenements have been erected and rented to working people. They, too, pay a profit although the rents are low, The total net profit arising from these municipal enterprises was $200,000 the first year. These are remarkable results. = = PLENTY OF LAW. When Attorney-General Maloney of Illinois eattacked the trusis in hig State he used only the common law. He found sufficient ground in the fundamental] principles of the com- mon law to effectively combat conspiracies and combines hos- tile to the public welfare. In answer to a question, Attorney-General Monnett of Ohio, who is now making a successful fight against the Standard Oil Trust, says he merely uses the writ of quo warranto which compels an oppressive corporation to come into court and show cause why its charter should not be revoked for acts against public policy. ’ The writ puts the offending corporations on the defensive. It enables the State's law officer to show that it has entered into a conspiracy or combine to oppress the people and is guilty of acts against public policy. Ingenious laws for the suppression of trusts are not needed 60 Much as honest and capable prosecutors and judges who know the law and their duty and, knowing them, act accord- ingly. There is law enough, if rightly applied, to smash every oppressive combine in the country. - In our wir with Spain there were killed and fatally wounced in the army and ravy 472 men, while the deaths from disease in the army were 6277, There were no deaths from disease in the navy. Yet it is “treason” to suspect that there was any mismanagement in the War Department. ‘ss = = " TELEPHONES HERE AND ELSEWHERE While in this country the telephone business is an unreg- ulated private monopoly, in Europe it is commonly a State monopoly. Great Britain, which has been most liberal in this respect to private enterprise, has finally adopted the plan of State ownership and operation, and the companies will speedily retire from the field. When ‘he work is accomplished there will not be an important nation in Europe with corporation- managed telephones. It is instructive to note that there is in those countries no complaint of the service provided. In this country there is nothing but complaint. Why is this remarkable difference? It is learned that Speaker Reed did not visit the Wiite House during the recent session of Congress: that when fon- gress adjourned he did not bid the President gpood-by, and that he has not been invited to the Cabinet dinners. His opinion as to the abdominal peculiarities of our Philippine subjects has evidently not been changed. = = _ se 2 STRONGER THAN MANY SPEARS. Opponents of woman suffrage led by Mrs. Rossiter Johnson and Mrs. Helen Waterson argue that because woman |s unable to back up her ballot with force of arms, therefore it is absurd to give her the voting power. She might express her wishes through the ballot box, but men would obey or not, as it suited them. Is it true that woman 4s powerless?

Letters from the pastors of St. Louis churches, published in to-day’s Sunday Post-Dispatch, show hew strong and uni- versal among the representatives of all denominations is the sentiment in favor of the building up of Wasnh'neton Uni- versity to the greatest possible capacity and efficiency in the field of higher education. No collegiate ingtitution in the country has k broader foun- dation upon which to build than Washington University. By its charter it is bound to be non-sectarian in religion and non- partisan in polities. It siands upon a purely educational foun- dation. But the success of the plan to remove the University to its new site west of Forest Park, erect the handsome buildinss donated by generous St. Louisans and greatly enlarge the scope of the institution is not yet assured. abe time limit—March 20—for the raising of the endowment of $500,000, of which $100,000 was promised by Mr. Robert 8. Brookings on condition that the remainder be subscribed bv other friends of the University, has nearly expired. Half of the needed gum fs still lacking. Surely the friends of education in St. Louis will not neglect this extraordinary opportunity to richly endow the city’s Uni- versity and enlarge it into a great institution of learning with a commanding place among American universities. “It will mean 80 much to St. Louis in the way of educational opportu- nity for the youth of the city, culture at home and reputation abroad that failure is incredible. It would be a reflection on the people of St. Louis. Prompt liberality is required to prevent such a calamitous issue of the movement. The friends of the University must rally to its support. The subscriptions may be paid in easy installments and there ought to be no difficulty in finding enough public spirited citizens who will contribute $1,000 or more to make up the required sum. We do not believe St. Louis is so poor in rublic spiritea liberality that this great educational purpose will fail for lack of so small a sum. Gen. Henry protests against the withdrawal of any troops from Porto Rico. He says the number should be increased rather than diminighed. The Porto Ricans want self-govern- ment and other liberties, and the General thinks a large army is needed to suppress any such upstart aspirations. By the time we annex Canada it is to be honed that the Canadians will be sufficiently civilized to abstatn from how]- ing and rioting at the execution of a woman. That Torontyo mob could not be benevolently assimilated for a good many years. Are our dogs of war to stand and watch the European dogs fighting over that big Chinese bone and take no part in the contest? Would such a course be consistent with our new idea of Americanizing mankind with American cannon? os @ — -—_-— — St. Louls may be worse off through the Legislature of the State, but she is very much worse off through her rotten Municipal Assembly. She should proceed at once to get rid of all corrupt legislative influences. Buffalo mails will be put off sooner at St. Louis and St. Louis mails will be put off sooner at Buffalo whea the fast- mail flyer begins to fly next week. —~_ o> It is the idea of the municipal administration that ‘“‘public curiosity” should be gratified only in cases where the Demo- crats have done wrong. i de If Senator Chandler is so fearful of the trusts his wisdom would show itself richer by getting out of the party which promotes trusts.

The Pamirs of Central Asia are known as the “roof of the world,” and Mr. Bull is wanting Adam-Zad to come off the roof. The Nationa] Association of Master Plumbers have enthusias- tically approved the World’s Fair of 1998, and no doubt they will contribute more or less of their recently acquired wealth in promoting the great exhibition.

When a Virgtanla boy 8 years old can execute eight burglaries in a week there can be no doubt of the progress of Young Amer!i- ca in the wrong direction. It is well the police of Richmond Were massed against this fierce desperado; otherwise he might still have been at large. Now that Ambassador Choate and the Royal British fAmily are so friendly, an arrangement will doubtless be made to have the rainfalls of Londonand New York occur at the same time, so that Cholly will not be going about in the sunshine with his trou- ‘sers rolled up. The temptation of the treasurer of the Chicago W. C. T. U. to buy distilleries is clear. With the society constantly dwelling upon the great quantities of liquor consumed, Mr. Shaw could not help perceive that a great dea] of money might be made by cornering the distilleries. His resignation as a temperance of- ficial must have cost him a pang, but the heavy profits on mo- nopolized whisky will serve to comfort him. i, ip. a ANSWERS TO CORRESPONDENTS. Bm. C.

EMIL PREETORIUS WILL BE 72 YEARS OLD WEDNESDAY. NESTOR OF THE GERMAN PRESS. Friend and Associate of Carl Schurz, Who Celebrated His Birthday in New York March 2. Dr. Emi] Preetorius of St. Louis, the Nes- tor of the German press, editor-in-chief of the Westliche Post, scholar, litterateur and politician, will celebrate his 72d birthday March 15. Dr. Preetorius was the first of the great German-American editors, whose labors tn the last half century have contributed largely to the advancement of intellectual and political affairs in the United States, The paper of which he is now the editor- in-chief has had for another of its conspic- uous promoters the Hon: Carl. Schursz, whose natal day, falling on March 2, has made him the recipient of attentions in New York from prominent men of the me- tropolis, foreigners of note and learned bodies. The association of Dr. Preetorius and Hon. Carl Schurz {s only strange in that it is the sole instance in the history of German-American journalism in which two men of eminent natural ability and talent, to say nothing of conspicuous personal fit- ness, have been associated in the further- ance of a newspaper of the eens and influence of Die Westliche Post. ; Dr. Preetoriue first saw the light In Alzey, Rheinnessen, Germany, in 1827. His parents intended that he should follow the law as a profession and with this in view accorded him the means of acquiring @ liberal education at the universities of Giessen and Heidelberg. The epirit of change that possessed Germany in his resi- dent days found a fruitful soil in his ardent temperament and he participated like Carl Schurz and hundreds of the then ablest men of the Vaterland in the revolution of 1848-50 and a few years later (in 183) was compelled to leave his native land. He ealled for America, coming almost imme- diately to St. Louis, where he has resided continuously since. In Germany he had practiced law with considerable success, but in his new home he abandoned that profession. During the last year of the rebellion Dr. Preetorius was a stanch supporter of the Union. In the thickest of the campaign he left his business to advocate Abraham Lincoln's candidacy. In 1862 he was chosen to the State Legislature on the Radical remanci- ation ticket, and both on the floor of the fouse and in the columns of the Westliche Post, when he took charge of them early in 1864. he was most outspoken in his support of the cause of the Union. As a writer Dr. Preetorius has a strong, clear, crisp style, which gives his editorials a marked individuality. He ts never back- ward in denouncing corruption. The wide range of his reading and information makes him an entertaining conversationalist. Dur- ing Presidential campaigns he has spoken with much success in both BDnglish and German in various cities. There has never been a movement when either friend or foe was in doubt a single pooment as to where he stood on any ques- on, POPE LEO XIll, TO THE NUNS, Beautiful Hexameters Addressed to the “Spouses of Christ” Just Be- fore His Illness. Fpecial to the Post-Diepaten. Copyright. 1890, by Press Publishing Company. ROMB, March 11.—Pope Leo XIII., just before his illness, wrote some beautiful hexameters in Latin addressed to nuns, which, translated, read as follows: THE MAIDENS CONSBC RATE, Lo!

Far from the clamour He has given you, Within the peaceful precincts of your cells, To lead a blameless life. You blossom there Like fragrant lilies In a garden close.

Then shall He make your love more ardent glow And shield you closer in His sacred heart, Your souls with wondrous sweetness giad- dening.

Copyright, 1899, by Press Publishing Company. LONDON, March il—~-Axel Orling, a young Swedish electrical engineer, who studied some time in America, has invented a torpedo whose moevements, he asserts, can be controlled fram shore or ship with- out any material connection between it and its controler. Orling lately gave a demonstration of the power of his invention ‘before King Oscar, the Swedish Ministers of Marine and War and other notabilities. The apparatus ts now in the London docks awaiting an early rtunity for exhibi- tion to the press and the official world of London. ‘You surely do not mean to tell me, Mr. Orling,’’ said the Post-Dispatch corre- spomdent to him to-day, “that, standing on the seashore or the deck of a sh:.p, you ean direct the course of a torpedo toward its object without an electric wire or other means of material cqmmunication bet weon you and it?” He replied: ‘“‘Yes; and if the torpedo fs not used for destructive perevess L can in to my feet like a boomerang. “If you ask me to explain the genera! principle of my invention I may say briefly it is a new means of transmitti motive power by means of rays of light. am not exactly prepared to give them a name, but the light wh ch I transmit from the con- trolling or steering apparatus on shore or on board ship to the torpedo attachment is transmuted there into electrical inguc- tion, ‘The difference between Marconi’s inven- tion (wireless telegraphy) and mine is that I can concentrate my waves of light, while he cannot do this with his waves of sound. ‘T can direct the movements of a torpedo as far as the eye, naked or with the aid of a telescope, can reach. That ts to say, from the shore to the horizon, which ia about six miles. But if I stand on a shore height or on the deck of a ship my area of view will be very much wider. I can see the where- abouts of my torpedo even in the dark by means of an electric lamp surmounting a rod projecting out of the water, a lamp which cannot be seen by the enemy be- couse its shade is‘always turned toward m “Its cost f¢ only about $1000. Its apeed is 22 knots an hour. It runs 10 feet below the surface of the water and the receiving rod is a foot out of water. “If the torpedo is not exploded !t can be brought back, which is impossible with any existing torpedo. “This invention will In time render su- perfluous the use of wires for telephone purposes,” Some months ago Tesla, the inventor, claimed to be perfecting a new war engine to be controlled in a manner sfmilar to the Orling torpedo.

John William Martin, a lecturer of the London Fabian Bociety, who has come to America tO see how the people of the great American cities live, delivered two lectures in St. Louls yesterday. In the afternoon he spoke before the St. Louls Social Settle- mem at its home at Second and Victor sts., describing the social work in London. In the evening he addressed the Young Men's Municipal Club at Druid Hall, speaking of social achievements of the English cities. Mr. Martin ts one of the most interestlig lecturers ever heard in 8t.

His work, and that of the society he represents, is with the poor people of the English cities, and he came St. Louls to see how many poor people ‘are here, how poor they are, why they are poor, how they feel about it, what could be done about it, how the poverty of since ran into a crowd of men and women at Broadway and Washington av, yesterday | at noon, causing a panic.

The Pyramid Pile Cure cyres all forms of piles without one particle of pain. This desirable point is not obtained by ‘the use of injurious opiates which simply deaden and paralyze the nerves of the parts and mallee matters worse in the long run. But it is done solely by its remark- able healing and soothing effects. | And while it thus gives immediate re- lief, at the same time the disease is not merely checked, but 4 radical cure is rapidly accomplished. And the point we want to make clear is ‘that all this is done without a particle of P This fact is one great reason for the popularity of the Pyramid Pile Cure and constitutes one very great difference be- tween it and almost any other kind of treatment for piles.

LOBBY WAS NEARLY DODGED. Verification of Roll Call Showed Error, but the Measure Was Inform- ally Laid Over. JEFFDPRSON CITY, Mo., March 11.—-An effort was made in the House this morning when the lobby was to a great degree ab- sent and not watchful to engross the bill reducing railroad passenger fares on main | lines from 3 to 2 cents and on branch lines from 4 to 3 cents. Williams of Scott moved the engrosé- ment of the bill. Barnett moved to lay it over informally. After a short debate the roll was called | and the motion to lay over was adopted 57 | to 30. Pope of Cole excitedly demanded a verifi- eation of the roll, intimating that there was crookedness in it.

Bradley of St. Francois introduced in the House an elght-hour law. Kiskaddon in- troduced a bill to punish merchants, manu- facturers and all dealers who refuse to sell to all persons alike. The Senate has passed a number of House bills, which will become laws with the Gev- ernor’s approval, and which are entirely for the benefit of the miners of the State. Strange to say, they were not opposed in either branch of the Assembly, and were posed unanimously by both House and enate. The laws are four, and it is re- markable that they -should have got through without encountering opposition from a single one of the 174 men who con- sidered them. The miners of Missouri certainly have no grievance against the LefMslature. It is re- markable, too, that the ©rganized lobby should have Kept its hands off the bills. The bills were drawn by State Mine In- Evans, and were introduced by Representative Wight, in whose county, Randolph, a large number of the State's coal mines are Jocated. The first of these bills provides regula- tions to insure the safety of miners in be- ing lowered or hoisted tn mine Snafts; the second provides that scales for weighing coal as it is mined shall not be more than 100 feet from the shaft; the third provides for the inspection of the weights. scales and measures used at mines; and the fourth provides that the miner shall have a lien on the mine for services rendered. -amesdell to-day offered In the House a resolution inviting Willlam J. Bryan to ad- dress the Legislature. Jones of Howell moved to include President McKinley and Barnett said that as the Republican mem- hers didn’t seem to be informed on the question of “embalmed beef,”” he would move that Secretary Alger be also invited, The whole matter was tabled. Bradley of St. Francois created a sensa- tion in the House by offering a resolution instructing the auditor to decline to pay members for days when they are absent without excuse This was voted down up- roariously. The action of the House in tablips the resolution inviting Willfam J. Bryam to ad- dress the Legislature is looked on by many Aas Signiticent., The Democrats say nothing, but the re ‘ord shows that Mr. Ransdell of Cedar County offered a reso- lution inviting Mr. Bryan to speak and the House. by a vote of 62 *o 45. tabled it. The Republicans are laughing at thelr Democratic colleagues. It is true ‘that the original resolution was weighted down with amendments offere by Re ublicans Inviting President McKinley and Tebater Davis, and one offered by Bennett of Pettis, inviting Secretary of War Alger, but the Bemocrats did not vore down the amendments and adopt the origt- nal resolution. Instead, they made a joke out of the original resolution, and when Davis of Pike moved to table the whole matter there were dissenting voices Two years ago the game réesolulion was offered and received the support of every Democratic member of the House and Sen- ate.

Harthausen, a mem- ber of the ballooning department of the general staff, gave a thrilling description of his experience to the Post-Dispatch cor- respondent. ‘*On the morning of March 3 we decided to ascend from Templehoferfield, There was @ strong, steady northwest wind Our plan was to descend at Breslau, in Silesia, and be back in Berlin the same evening. “We had an ordinary military balloon, but heavily baliasted as it was, we shot up with fearful rapidity. The start was made at 12:10 p. m. The balloon tore along over the plain watered by the Oder. You noticed epeed when looking down at the earth, but looking upward there was no sense of motion whatever. You felt as if the balloon were hanging still in the sky. “We ewept over Breslau at a height of 400) feet in a little less than three hours. We made no attempt to descend, the wind being too strone We were traveling at the rate of 8) miles an hour with an ease, smoothness and delightful sense of exhiliar- ation impossible to describe. “Bresiau was passed. The wind in- creased, and we determined to offer no re- sistance, but to turn our backs to it, and let it carry us ‘wher® fit pleased. The bal- foon gradualiy rose, and at 3 o’clock we erossed the Austrian frontrier at an eleva- tion of 58 feet at terrific speed. “We decided to sink the balloon and eafely brought her to a standstill at the vil- lage of Baguska, in Galicia, 423 miles from Berlin as the crow flies, at 4 O’clock, hav- ing traveled at the rate of 100 miles an hour. “This is the fastest balloon trfp on rec- ord. the previous record being held by a ir of French aeronauts, who traveled our hours at 60 miles an hour.’’ This feat has exeited great interest here.

The Courts Did Not Recognize This Contention, Divorce Was Not Granted and the Lady Was Sent to a Madhouse. Special Cable to the Post-Dispatch. Copyright, 1890, by Press PulAishing Company. LANDON, March 11.—London society is astounded by an even more extraordinary recovery of mental powers after long years of derangement than that of Lord Sefton, whose case was described in a recent cable dispatch to the Post-Dispatch. The Countess of Durham, after 17 years of apparently hopeless insanity, has com- pletely regained her reason aiid is now stay- ing at her husband's country seat. She was the heroine of one of the most curlous and exciting aristocratic divorce Suits of the past half century. When she was Miss Milner, the young Earl of Durham, one of England's wealth- lest Peers, fell madly tn love with her. She was In good society, but he was deemed one of the best catches of. his day, so she was regarded as exceptionally lucky. Miss Mil- ner was a very tal! aad hancsome blonde, with pecullarly beautiful eyes. Within six months the Lord Durham became beautiful wife was mad. ly insensible to his a‘fecrion, most of her time in a s: straction. loverything was done tc rouse ner, but in vain. Once when a brilliant party was traveling in a special saloon train to York- shire, Lord Durham made the daring exper- iment of kissing another lady, the beauti- ful Countess de Grey, before his wife's eyes to see if she would take any notice of It. She was indifferent even to this provoca- tion to jealousy, so all the party concluded there could be no doubt of her insanity. After that she got completely out of con- trol and frequently went out early in the morning, remaining till late at night, hav- ing walked fast and aimlessly through the country lanes or London streets, the whole day. She often returned exhausted with fa- tigue and hunger, and her dress covered with mud. Finally at a grand ball at the Duke of Abercorn’'s Hampden house, the unfortunate Jady began to undress herself in the ballroom, when her friends succee)- ed in coaxing her away. She was then removed to Where she has since remained. Lord Durham instituted suit on the unprecedented ground, in Eng.anij, that his wife was mad when she marvicd him, but the court held, after a protracted trial, that premarital insanity was no ground for divorce. Lord Durham and the Countess have not met since her release last week, and the Fearl’s friends say it is impossible for them alter marriage convinced that his She was entire- and passed tte of complete ab- an asylum, for divovce Engiish of all the West Indian | One Section of Germany’s Reichsiag Looks Unfriendly on Him.

Frank the son of a big Silesian land owner by his first marriage in South America. and the old man, being feeble, invited him to come home and help manage his property. H#S father’s second wife is only 28 years old and very pretty.

But Frank left the train a few stations before Berlin and arrived in the capital-by‘a local train. In this way he mystified the police, but they kept on the watch and soon the career of the lovers was cut short.

MYSTERY NOT SOLVED I FORMER HOME OF A RICH MAN CAN’T BE LOCATED. is charged Special Cable to the Post-Dispatch. VIENNA, March 11.—The mystery envel- oping the identity of Dr. Guido Brumo Charles de Freye, the American million- aire who died in Vienna, July 4, of last year, seemed a few weeks ago on a rapid road to solution by the appearance on the scene of two persons from Switzerland, who claimed to be brothers of the dead man, but has now been thrown further back into the shade The parties who instituted claim to the De Freye estate in January last called themselves Ulrich ‘Boshardt and Jakob Meter. They based their claim on the fact that their brother, Jakob Boshardt, left Switzerland for the United States in the year 1873. Their case has been greatly weakened, however, by a discovery made by the pro- prietor of the Bristol Hotel, where Dr. de Freye died. He produced a photograp- of Dr. de Freye'’s handwriting, which he proved one of the missing links in th. case. He had received it from the shoe- maker in Brussels, together with a letter describing ‘De Freye, and stating that he was a physician in Spokane and claimed to be a professor of mining. A comparison of the handwriting dis- played by the photograph revealed no sim- ilarity whatever with that in the letters of Jg¢kob Boshardt. In fact, the difference is most striking. Whereas Boshardt’s writ- ing is in bold, ill-formed characters, Dr. Guido de Freye's signature and letter are written in a ight and flowing almost effem- inate hand, In his letter Dr. de Freye gave no ad- dress, so that instead of aiding to clear up the matter it has served only to make it the darker. The only hope at present is that someone will recognize the handwrit- ing. WHAT DID WILLIAM III. MEAN? Message of Condolence to Mrs. Kipl'ng a Bit Obscure to Britons. LONDON, March 11..—Emperor William's message to Mrs. RudyardeKipling has nat- urally attracted great attention, particu- larly the reference to ‘“‘our common race.” The first impression here was that hm- peror William thought Kipling was an American, especially as the German papers referred to “the American author, K'p- ling.”” But thds impression is quite erron- eous. The Emperor was 2 reader of Kip- ling’s writings long before he settled in America. His Majesty, hewever, Knew that Kipling’s wife was an Amer-can, and it is thought that he intended to include America when he spoke of the “common race.”’ The Spectator “The Fn»peror ject tne Teuton to thé ruling race of the kimpire. lie did not ture to call Kipling an Amer'can; but De- ing anx.ous tnat his teegram should be tuken compliment to Americans rather than Englishmen, the German jour- nals received a hint to describe him as an Smerican at least.

Even Ear] Pembroke, Lord Steward of the Queen's Household, mentioned in the House of Commons lobby yesterday that Mr. Choate had made a most favorable im- pression on Queen Victoria, who spoke of him in terms of special personal apprecia- tion. Choate must employ a special private secretary to deal with his social and pub- lic invitations. They come daily in a per- fect deluge from all parts of the country and from all kinds of people. Mr. and Mrs. Choate and their daughter made their first appearance in London society at the Marquis Lansdowne’s reception Wednes- day night Lansdowne showed the utmost attention to the Ambassador, introducing to him all the notable people present. He attends his first levee at St. James Palace on Monday, with the Asso- clated Chambers of Commerce on Wednes- day, and is Knee deep in personal invita- tions of every conceivable kind.

The Lord ‘Mayor of London, Sir John Voce Moore, presided at a meeting held at the Mansion House this week to further the proposed national commemoration in 1901 of the one thousandth anniversary of the death of King+Alfred. The Queen has given the movement her patronage, and _ the memorial will take the form of a bronze statue of King Alfred to be erected in the royal city of Winchester The United States Ambassador wrote, regretting that his visit to the Queen at Windsor on the day of the meeting, prevented his attend- ance. The Secretary, who is a former Mayor of Winchester, announced that a commise sion had been formed in America to co- operate with the movement here, and that it smembers include Col.

We had both been there, and I fancy that if Loubet has a hobby it is farming. He said he regarded agriculture as ane o the noblest callings.a man could follow. ‘I am proud,’ he said, ‘of being born on a farm, and hope one day to go back there. It is my ideal to close my days among my own people on the farm where I was born.’ ‘“‘His family sentiment is strong, but his attachment to the State which he is called to govern can. be relied on. Still I never met a man in a great position who evinced less appearance of being actuated by am- bition. Destiny has made him President, and he will do an honest, able man’s part to acquit himself worthily. Loubet is a man you instinctively respect.’’ Asked about his own plans, Iglesias ‘said: ‘I shall remain in Paris three weeks longer if the rainy weather allows me to.’’ Emile Loubet exhibits tn his timid and awkward manner the traits of his. early training. The people know that he has those other characteristics of the common people—honesty and industry. 2 The American people didn’t long criticise Lincoln because he was born poor or be- cause he remained awkward. It is the same with the French people and Loubet, and it Is a sign full of promise for France. Loubet was born in 1838 on a little farm at Marsanne, about two miles from Monte- limar,. It is the typical farm of the South of France, It has two buildings forming a right angle. The stables and horses are on the ground floors, and above them the living apartments. The pig, sheep, cows and hens puddle about in the roomy court yard. The President’s mother, 86 years old, still manages the farm. She has never been to Paris, Her son's advancement has not al- tered her in any respect. She wears the garb of the peasant, as her people had dona before her. Loubet was educated in the neighborhood, became a lawyer and built up a modest practice at Montelimar. In 1867 he married Matte Denis, an {ron- monger’s daughter. Her father was a tramp. He came from Picardy and found employment in a nailsmith’s shop. When he died he left a fortune to his Family of 300,000 francs.

LONDON, March 11.—England’s plight is fast cooling the ardor of fhat element bent on the widest expansion in the far Fast and Africa at any cost. The latest esti- mate of the deficit which confronts Chan- cellor of the Exchequer Beach places it at $5,000,000. This in a year when the reve- nue, it is estimated, will beat all records by $7,500,000. The deficit is due entirely to Lord Salisbury’s jingo policy, and the mere prospect of an increase in the income and other taxes has served to start grumbling in every direction. There has been a permanent increase of $15,000,(00 laid on the navy and $10,000,000 on the army, the total expenditure, army and navy, reaching the gigantic total of $350,- Wou,000, out of a revenue of $515,000,000. ‘These figures in time of peace are start- ling, but the real ground for concern arises from the poston in which England. will find herself when the present cycie of pros- perity passes. While these, or still more bloated ex- penditures due to the expansion craze, must be met, it has been actually suggested in ministerial quarters that the best plan Chancellor of the Exchequer Beach can fol- low in dealing with the deficit is to sus- pend the sinking fund for the os of the national debt. The resort to this finar- cial expedient in a year, too, of Great Brit- ain’s record revenue, is prompted by po- litical considerations, for the Ministers well know their troubles will begin when the country is asked to pay for thelr ex- pansionist extravagances. The latest advices from the Soudan min- imize the strength of the Kiuhalifa’s forces, though it has been practically decided to send an expedition to finally dispose of him. Gen. Lord Kitchener of Khartoum w'!l shortly make an extended tour of the EKast- ern Soudan, visiting Kassal, Suakim and Gederef. A squadron of cavalry has. been dis- patched from Omdurman up the White Nile to prevent supplies being furnished clan- destinely to the Khalifa’s camp in Kor- dofan. NEAT TRIBUTE TO KIPLING. His Old Friend, Tommy A., Congratu- lates Him on His Fight. LONDON, March 11.—The newspapersr here etill pay consiierable attention to the progress towards recovery made by Rud- yard Kipling. The Times, on Friday, pub- lished prominently a set of verses after the style of ‘““The«Barrack Room Ballads,”’ ana supposed to be from **Tommy Atkins to Kipling on His Iliness.”"’ The last verse ran: ‘We ’eard that you were fighting ‘ard, just as we know you would, But we ‘ardly ‘oped you'd turn his flank; they said you ‘ardly could, But the news has come this morning, and I'm writing ‘ere to say There's no British son more ‘appy than your old friend, Thomas A.” = HIGH PRAISE TOR SOLDIERS, British General’s Opinion of American Treops.

Special Cable to the Post-Dispatch. Copyright, 1809, by Press Publishing Company. LONDON, March 11.—The unique fact of 200 United States troops being reviewed by the British Commander in Chief at Malta has excited the keenest interest here and doubtless in the United States also, The review was before Lieutenant-General Sir Francis Grenfell, lately Sirdar of the Egyptian Army, who won the highest ad- ministrative distinction for the creation of the present Egyptian Army and gained many laurels in two Nile campaigns. The Post-Dispatch correspondents invited Gen, Grenfell’s expert opinion on the Amer- ican troops and received the following cabled reply, dated Malta, Friday, 6:62 p. ™.: “I inspected the American troops on the Floriana Parade yestegjay. I was much Struck by their splendid physique, by the steadiness with which they stood on parade and by the fact that they looked none the worse for their long and trying voyage.” Gen. Grenfell’'s aide de camp added, by the Governor's direction, to the dispatch that after eeeing the troops on parade they marched past the Governor and Admiral Sir John Hopkins. The United States Colonel ond other officers were then entertained at luncheon at the Palace and dined with the Admiral at Admiralty House. Great cordiality prevailed between the British sol- diers and saltlors and the American troops, who left Malta to-day. NOT OF THE CELTIC FRINGE.

Dear Sir—In the announcement of the Washington University’s plans for increns- ing its endowment to an amount which would enable it to occupy the buildings recently centributed for the new site, .it was stated that as individual subscriptions are generally made based upon the sum ag- regate to be raised, and parties naturally islike to enter into any obligation without a time limit, the amount was fixed as $600,- 000, and time within which it was to be subscribed in order to make all subscrip- tions binding was fixed at March 20. In addition toe the $100,000 given on condl- tion that the other $400,000 was subscribed, we have, after a most persistent and ex- haustive of the city, been able to secure, mainly in te subscriptions rom 88000 to $20,000 each, /but Httle over 0,000. leaving us nearly $200,000 short of the sum required, The Washington University has probably the most valuable charter ever granted an educationa) institution in this country, all of its holdings of every kind being forever free from taxation conditioned upon its remaining non-sectarian in religion and non- artisan in politics—a broad base on which build a great age ig By permission we hand you letters re- ceived from pastors of many of our churches showing their great appreciation of the work we ate trying to do. Surely with the Support of all and antagonism of none there should be no difficulty in our securing this sum in eubecriptions of $1000 or over. We will early next week mail to those reons whom we can not see in person let- ere explaining the critical necessity for the prompt subscription of the amount we lack, and we would thank you to do what you can in the direction of arousing our people tO @ sense of their responsibility in the premises, ag the whole future of the unl- versity willl be infivenced by the result.

We have a just pride in our large mercantile establishments and in the financial stability of our banking institu- tons and trust companies, but up to this time there has not been a general and pub- lic interest shown in the only institution which, next to the church, can give us the best possible eeasaing in the whole coun- try. he blessings a great educational institution to all the interests of the city cannot be easily estimated. It draws to the city the very people who will give char- acter and standing to it. Whenever 8t. Louis becomes famous for its great educa- tional institution, as I trust it may, then more and more the very best citizens of the whole country will be glad to claim it as their home. ‘We have no great institution which appeals to a}l our people as this does, and for lack of a few thousand dollars they will not permit it to be crippled, and if once they become aroused to its impor- tance, raising the additional endowment will be an easy undertaking. I learn that the 20th of the present month has been fixed as the time limit for raising this additional amount. I therefore unite with all good citizens in an appeal to our men of means and civic pride to come promptiy forward and make your com- mendable undertaking a great success. I trust it will be announced within a few days that tho end hag been reached and that We are to have an Institution in which we shall all take a pardonable pride and which will arrest the attention of the whole country on account of its thorough work and advanced scholarship. From a mere commercial point of view this enterprise should succeed magnificently, and surely from the higher consideration of its educa- ttonal advantages there should be no longer any question as to the final outcome of this effort. Very truly yours, . P. FULLERTON, Pastor Lucas Av. Cumberland Presbyterian Church, ST. LOUIS, Mo., March lth, 1899. Mr. R. 8. Brookings: My Dear Sir—I sincerely trust the pro- posed pian for the better equipment of Washington University will be speedily earried out. Louis is rapidly increas- ing in population and wealth. Already &a growing empire pays tribute to her in a thousand ways. Without doubt the im- perative need of the time is a more liberal] provision along the lines of higher educa- tion. Our public echool system is unsur- passed for organization and resuits. Our professional schools are in every way ad- mirable. ‘The one thing needed now is a great university to co-ordinate and com- lete the educational scheme. If the cit- gens of St. Louis could properly realize the splendid service which a_ university well placed, well 3p y and well en- dowed would render to our community and the neighboring commonwealth, I am sure they would rally around Washington Uni- versity with generosity and enthusiasm. sincerely hope you will succeed in raising the $400,000 by the 20th of March. Cordial- ly yours. N. LUCCOCK, Pastor Methodist Episcopal Church, Union ST. LOUIS, Mo., March 10, 1899. Robt. S. Brookings: Dear Sir—If by any word of indorsement, if by any act of mine, I can help, even in the humblest way, this worthy and laud- able effort to endow Washington Universi- ty, I shall be happy beyond expression. No money invested in benevolent work pays euch royal dividends as money in- vested in our colleges. For, while less than one out of every hundred of our popu- lation is @ eollege graduate, the influence of the college is not in ® same ratio as is seen in two-thirds of the United States Congress, the Cabinet, the highest courts of our land being made up of col- lege graduates. Mentally trained men are the controlling influence in all the avenues of life, in t communities in which these men are mem- bers. He who puts money into a college puts at work a force for good for all time to come. No other monument can be erect that will call such marked attention, be so far reaching in its influence and exercise such a power for good, not only in. our own community, but in the State and all neighboring States, as to build up and give rmanency to a great institution of higher learnine like Washington University. The colleges has to do with the raw ma- terial. out of which the immediate demands domestically, eocially, commercially and civically are to be supplied. Touching life at that formative and plastic period, when no sooner is the impression made than it hardens into permanency, it appeals that the best of teachers, U indered access to all fields of research, every needed facility should b afforded that the cast should be of the truest mold. Thies, as all know, re- quires money. . The present opportunity to the “Men of the Day” to make for them- selves a name immortal, I fee! will not be slighted, but heroically seized, and from all qoarters there will come in. practical responses that will make our city known as an educational center @s well @s @ com. mercial metropolis.

AN UNUSUAL COURT SCENE. or ee Elder Man Seeks to Collect Alleged Arrears of Rent—The Younger Man Denies His Authority. ---- The case of Webb vs. Webb was called im Justice J. B. Greensfelder’s court at Clayton yesterday morning. James Webb, 7% years old, brought an ejectment suit against his son, Frank J. Webb. The elder Webb alleges he was empowered by Fred- erick Garesche of St. Louis, receiver for the Peerless Building and Loan Associa- tion, to act as his collector, and as such he endeavored to collect $6 back rent from his son, Frank Webb, who occupied a two- story frame house on Romona Heights be- longing to the building and loan associa- tion, and that Frank refused to pay. The defendant not having made his ap- eee in court, the judge decided to ait until 10 o'clock, and if he did not ap- pear by that time to award James Webb | judgment by default. | At 10 o’clock the judge began to read his decision. As he did so a tall, handsome man, aged about 4 years, stepped into the, u courtroom and asked that the proceedings | be stopped. | Hle was Frank Webb, and he wished to a verdict was rendered. He asked for a continuance of the case until Saturday, March 18, upon the grounds that Frederick Garesche had not author- ized the bringing of the suit; that his fa- ther had no right to make affidavit to a landlord’s summons or to sue, and that his father was not authorized to make -«collec- tions for Frederick Garesche. He also be heard before asked for more time in order to secure wit-. nesses. Judge Greensfelder requested Frank Webb to make affi'’avit to the facts he had just stated, which he did, and was then granted a continuance until March 18. During the entire proceedings the father and son did not address each other, until the son was making affidavit to his appll- cation for continuance, when the father de- nounced him as a falsifier. The son is an insurance agent and has a wife and four children. FIRE AT SUMMERFIELD, ILL. Eisenmeyer Flouring Mill and Eleva- tor Entirely Destroyed.

MAKING HER & SUT THE PROCESS OF CANONIZING , MME. DUCHESNE. | sii COURT OF INQUIRY’S LABORS. | Founder of the Order of the Sacred Heart Will Be Added to the Cal- endar of Saints. The ecclesiastical court appointed by Archbishop Kain to inquire into the life and acts of Mme. Duchesne, with a view to having her canonized ultimately, has completed its labors. The final sessions were held during the week at St Charles, Mo. . The conclave was composed of the fol- lowing priests: (Mer. Muehlsiepen, Revs. James J. McCabe, John H. May, W. M. Tobin, J. J. Harty and J J. McGlynn of St. Louis and Rev. F. Wilmers of st. Charles, The testimony will shortly be forwarded to Rome. Mme. Duchesne was one of the chief pro- motors of the Sacred Heart Congregation She established the order in America over eighty years ago. The first institution was located in Florissant, Mo., then a bustling metropolis, compared to the St. Louis of that day. ’ Ere long branches sprung up all over the Untted States. To-day the Sacred Heart Convents are in nearly every large city of the country. Within their wails are nearly 10,000 women devoted to a lUfe of prayer. Mme Duchesne was born at Ladrone, France, in 1770. Her family belonged to the nobility, and possessed much wealth. One member of it spurned earthly joys. That ‘Was little Phillipe. At an early age she evinced a marked love for religion. When 18 years old she entered the Visi- tation Convent as a novice. Her father bitterly opposed the choice. But Phillipe was determined to have her own way, and he eventually yielded to her wishes. With the French Revolution in 1791 came the expulsion of the Visitation nuns from France They were subjected to many hardships. Sister Phillipe tried to re-estab- lish the Visitation Order in her native coun- try some years later, but without success. Then she co-operated with other good wo- men who were forming the Sacred Heart Order, and became a prominent member of that body. She reached America ear! in 1818. Her first stopping place was Ne Orleans. The degree of beatification precedes that of canonization. That Madam Duchesire is entitled to a place in the calendar of Saints may not be determined for years. It must first be shown that her character and behavior was that of a model Chris- tian, who practiced in a heroic degree the virtues of faith, hope and charity, and the four card'nal virtues, prudence, justice, fortitude and temperance. The minutes re- sulting from this inquiry are then sent to the Secretary of the Congregation of Rites at Rome. Before this body the process is opened by the supporters of the beatifica- tion. Then a promotus fidei, or, in pop- ular 1} uage, the “dev:l's advocate,” is appointed. His duty is to point out any flaws or weak points in the evidence ad- duced and raise all kinds of objections. Usually a high dignitary of the church is aclected for this purpose. The congrega- tion next inquires if the person be an au- thor, and, if so, all his or her writings and manuscripts are scruitinized. Then comes the introduction of the apos- tolic process. A gspecia) committee of Ro- man ecclesiasts is chosen to institute more rigid inquiries After a lapse of 10 years three Bishops or high functionaries are ap- pointed to review the testimony previously taken. Then conclusions are su tted toa new delegation. The. process being re- turned, the v-rtues and miracies are sep- arately the os py of debate in three suc- cessive assemblies or congregations, at the last of which the Pope himself is present. Having sought to know the wil) of G ~d by prayer, the Pope makes known his judgment to the Secretary of the Congre- now congregation is then held, at which it is decided whether the beatifica- tion be proceeded with. This is the final stage. the ceremonies are held in the Vatican Church, where there is a publo reading of the bref, followed by the chant- ing of the Te Deum, unveiling of the im- age or picture of the newly beatified on the altar and incensing of the image and reading of the colicct. Canonization ts the final process of rec- fon and estimation of a servant of God pre tory to being elevated to the alter a mmended to the perpetual venera- tion and invocation of Ch lanes through- out the Catholic oburch.

Found Himself Shut Out in a Hall in His Underclothing Only and His Door Tightly Locked. Special to the Post-Dispatenh. WASHINGTON, March 11.—One of the most dramatic happenings in the history of Washington diplomacy occurred last week, the scene of the incident being the Cairo a great apartment house on Q st., which is run on the plan of a family hote), The hero of the episode was Senor Don Antonie Lazo Arriaga, Envoy Exeraordinary and Minister Plenipoteniary from Guatemala, The Senor gets up rather late every morn- ing and he shaves himself. For the latter purpose a small pitcher of hot water is regularly placed outside of the door of his flat at a certain hour. On the occasion re- ferred to the colored servitor had placed the receptacle some feet away from the en- trance. The distinguished diplomat accord- ingly found himself obliged to step forth after it, and the feat he attempted in a somewhat Sagery fashion, being clad at A14 time in hig underclothes and nothing else. The move was a success, so far as reach- ing the pitcher unobserved was concerned; but what was the horror of the Senor when a little breeze, caused by the opening of the portal, blew the door to with a siam, leaving him on the outside. It was a spring ock! No one was present to translate the dip. lomat’s ejaculations, but sympathy will Suggest what they were. He pushed the button of the electric bell repeatedly and pounded violently upon the door. If he had contented himself with pushing the electric ‘button all would probably have been well; but the noisy pounding brought to the goor of the adjoining flat in some alarm a lady. She stepped forth and gazed with horror and amaze upon the strange and even grewsome figure of.the Guate- malan ministerpstanding in his embarrass- mee first on one foot and then on the otner. The situation could not last. and the Se- nor recognizing this fact, took advantage of an ispiration which might not have come tO a man less resourceful. With one blow he slammed the pit ‘her of hot water. which he still held in his hand, through the gla’ss of the locked door, ard then thrusting his arm inside he turned the knob and disap- peared within, The other day the Guatemalan Minister Was speaking to some Washineton ladies of what he regarded as a remarkable social experience met with here at the capital. He had been invited to an afternoon reception. “And do you know,” he Said, ‘“‘the hostess received the guests in a night gown!" “Good “avens!” replied the ladies (t% whom information was addressed, “surely you are joking, Mr. Minister.” “Not at all, I asure you,” reiterated the diplomat. ‘“‘It was in her night dress that we were received—low neck and bare arm.” ~O, you mean evening dress, do you nat, Mr. Minister?’ suggested the ladies. “Yes, that 's what 1 mean,” admitted Sen- i “low neck and bare arms, just » costume for the opera or ball.’’ Washington ladies quite commonly wear evening dress when giving afternoon receptions, An Oriental diplomat managed to make himself misunderstood the other evening. I* Waa at a big evening reception, and he was talking to Mrs. Mackay-Smith, a near lation to the Vanderbilts, and the wife of a distinguished Epis ‘opal clergyman. The conversatlon was upon the contrast between astern and Occidental customs in regard to women, and the Minister, interested in subject from a theoretical standpoint, by no means intending any offense . the and Said: “My wife Is pointing sig ders for ail men.”’ Naturaliy, Mrs. Mackay-Smith dropped » subject, offended, and turned away tuo to somebody She has declared rvere]—she is for me, You” nificantiy. to her bare shoul- ce or orn i ‘fare = elise. ure to be in the same room with ‘‘that bar- barian.”’ Oriental Ali Ferrouh Recently another Turkish Minister a most painful adventure in a small way.

The parents of the two girls say they have not seen or heard of their sons-in-law. The recent ed- dresses of the girls are unknown. The men gave a fictitious address, Yesterday forenoon a marriage license was issued to August F. H. Schneiders and Em- ma Mutschlier. He gave his age as 27 and ghe eald she was 20. He gave his address 1801 La Saile st and she gave hers as St. Ferdinand av. About 8 o'clock in the afternoon a couple lied who gave their names as Edgar Se neiders and Lena Mutschier. They gave the eame addresses as the previous couple. The man said he was 29 and she gave her “ae as 19. erk Filley spoke of the previous couple. The young man said they were his brother and her sister. Emma and Lena Mutschler are the daugh- ters of Mr. and Mrs Andrew ‘Mutschler of 8h St. Ferdinand av. They left home three months © because parental restrainet was distasteful to them. They did not tell their arents what they were doing or where hey were living. They said, when they came back at long intervals to see their nts, that they were working in South Bt. Louis. That was as near as they came to taking their parents into their confi- dence. Threa weeks ago Emma, the oldest, went to see her parents, but did not stay long. Gince that neither of the giris had been geen or heard of. ; A Post-Dispatch reporter told Mutschler and hie wife last night of the issuance of the licenses. ‘Mrs. Mutschler laughed, but her husband spoke with bitterness. "“T never heard of the men,” he _ said. “They have never been in my house. I did fiot know my daughters were keeping com- pany with any young men. They said they were working in South St. Louls. I sup- e they met the young men down there. Pei go down to La Salle st. to-morrow and see if I can ‘find them. The last three weeks I have worried night and day about my daughters.” According to the statements of her Parents, lena overstated her age. They eas she will not be 18 until the 4th of next December. But she is well-developed for her age and might be supposed to be older, At 1801 La Salle st. last might it was de- nied that the Schneiders lived there. The young woman who responded to the bell eald she knew 4 AB by that name. The house Consists of an upper and lower flat, eccupied by two families. Nothing was known of the Schneiders in the neighbor- hood. The names given by the two grooms are not in the directory. THE MUNICIPAL CAMPAIGN Beffa Files Charges Against Vozel, Both Republican Candidates in the Fourth Ward. ee ee Severo Beffa of 1235 Market st. and Wil- Ham Vogel of 62 Chestnut st. are rival @andidates for the Remibdlican nomination for members of the House of Delegates from the Fourth Ward, Beffa objects to Vogel's candidacy and erday he filed an application in the revit Court for an injunction restrain- | Vogel from making the race and the ection Commissioners from placing his e on the ticket. "He bases his petition for the order on the allegation that Vogel is not qualified the office and could not serve if elected. © @aye that. under the (harter of St. uls, no person who has ever been con- of a misdemeanor or a crime is illegible to a seat in the House of Delegates, ena he charges that Vogel has been con- Victed six times in the Court of Criminal Correction of selling lottery tickets. The petition was referred to Judge Fiit- “raft, who declined to take it up vester- @ay afternoon, but said he would give it precedence over ali other business Monday morning. Beffa and Vogel are both saloon men and each has a large following in the Fourth ard. The fight between the factions has resulted in considerable bad feeling. and there will be much dissatisfaction with the successful candidate, whoever he may be. It is said that Mayor Zilegenhein looks with favor on Vogel's cause, but neither he nor any of his supporters has yet ven- tured to interfere in the contest, which is ron one to be comfortable for the adminis- ration.

It is neecless to say that eV result of the game, whether won by an" American player or only drawn, was cheered’ to the echo. Very often moves which were arrrested came in for hearty reunds of applause when t} spectators thought the move Was a cood one. During the morning session it became evident that P_llsbury could do no more tnan draw against Blackburne, but the lat- ter played so splendidly that he beat his man on his first board after 71 moves. Showalter’s brilliant play on the second board against Atkins caused general ad- miration and when, at his 45th move, he announced a mate in seven moves. the spectators showed great enthusiasm. At- kins, of course, resigned, barry, too, played excellent chess to-day, and after 51 moves he had beaten Law- rence on the th'rd table. On the fourth board Hodges played very strongly and managed to beat Jackson af- ter 51 moves. Voeht who at first tried for a win against Jacobs, had to be satisfied with a draw after 41 moves. The Prooklyn champton, Marshall. let an opportunity slip to win his game right out, and he, too, had to be satisfied with a draw after 62 moves against Wainwrigh, Newmar an] Bellingham, who contested ther game up to the finish, agreed upon a draw after 6 moves. and Saird and Trenchard also drew their game after 7 moves.

Gh —— It Lasted Fifteen Rounds and Both Men at the End Were in Shape to Go a Longer Distance. he 15-round boxing contest before the West End Club on Saturday night, fm which Perry Queenan of Chicago and Bu- gene Bezenah of @incinnati were the prin- cipals, was declared a draw. The West End's handsome clubroom was well filled with lovers of the boxing game and all hands were given a good run for their money. Joe Stewart, as usual, officiated as ref- eree and Dave Nelson as announcer and master of ceremonies. The curtain raiser between Cotton Deters and Gus Bdinger lasted only two rounds. In the first Deters simply felt his man out, In the second Deters went at Edinger ham- mer and tongs, and in about a minute nad him on queer street. Once Deters knocked and he would for man in the first row who caught n on the fly. A secend later Deters was giving his opponent such a beating that the rel- eree wisely interfered, Yt the proceed- ings and gave the fight to Deters. Queenan and Bezenah looked very evenly matched as they stepped into the arena. They are stockily built young fellows but Queenan appeared to have the best of it in height and reach. : In head work and ring generalship the Cincinnati ‘boy had the best of it all the way through. Johnnie Richie seconded Queenan and big Jake Holtman and Trainer McKee were be- hind the Cincinnati ‘boy. In the first round the men sparred for an opening and felt each other out without striking a hard blow. In the second they went at each other like good fellows and in the mix up Bezenah appeared to have the best of it. In the third round Queenan put on steam and handed several right and left ewings, but in the fourth after two minutes of fighting Bezenah landed a clean left on Queenan’s face, stretching him at full length in the ring. He stayed down until nine seconds were counted and then he got up and danced merrily away from his op- poent as though nothing had happened. In the fifth, sixth and seventh Queenan forced the pace, but honors were easy. In the eighth Queenan landed with the soft part of his glove on Bezenah’s face and the latter partly slippéd and partly fell down, but he was up in a’second. In this round just before the gong sounded both aimed slashing blows at each other, both missed and fell at full length to the floor. The gong sounded as they lay there and there was loud laughter as they retired to their corners. In the ninth, tenth and eleventh rounds tezenah landed the oftenest, but in the twelfth Queenan rallied and was cheered for hie effective work. The thirteenth, fourteenth and fifteenth rounds were uneventful, both men being tired out and each giving the other as good as was sent. The decision of the referee, therefore. calling the contest a draw was well received by everyone. During the night challenges were handed back and forth. Johnnie Richie challenged Patsy Haley and Patsy accepted. Cotton Deters wanted to challenge the winner of the Bezenah and Queenan con- test. but some one would not let him. The announcer stated that Tommy Ryan and Bob Douglas would box five rounds at the West End Club next Saturday night. GOOD TRACK AT INGLESIDE. Favorites Captured the Money in Only Two Events.

He will fight Walcott and pos- sibly Tom Tracy before he casts the gloves aside forever, and will journey east to meet Waleott as soon as arrangements can be made. He will fight Tracy anywhere, but prefers to meet him in this city. ‘*kKid’’ Lavigne refused to comment on the decision of the referee beyond saying that McDonald had no other just course to fol- low after Lavigne's brother Billy jumped into the ring. Lavigne would like to meet Smith again and is confident he can,reverse the decbsion of last night. THE SPRINGFIELD RIFLE. Ordnance Officials Think They Suit the Volunteer Soldier. WASHINGTON, March 11.—The ordnance officials of the War Department deciare that the criticisms passed upon the depart- some quarters because all of the ment in troops in the Philippines are not equipped | with the Krag-Jorgensen rifles are based | It is | upon a misapprehension of the facts. not denied that the Spanish Mauser has a longer range than the 45-calfber Spring- fleld. even when the latter is using smoke- | less powder. But the military commanding officers in the Philippines were given the option of using the Springfield or the Krag- Jorgensen, and decided in favor of the former, at least for the time a That is why 6000 Krag-Jorgensens are lying at Benecia arsenal, subject to the requisition of Major-General Otis, and it is not be- cause the department is either unwilling or unable to transport them to Manila. All of the regular troops at Manila and now on the way there are armed with the magazine rifles. The volunteers have the Springfield because the ete command- ers in the Philippines hem as the better weapon, when us with smokeless powder, for the unskilled handling of vol- unteers. The difference in effective ran is really not very great, and the Springfie 45 ball ts almost sure to kill where the small Mauser ball only wounds. Aside from this, there is one great advantage in the Springfield, namety. its «eimplicity and strength. The volunteer soldiers find the mechanism of the modern rifle difficult to cere for and to use. while the Springs will stand any amount of rough handiing, and it is this reason, more than any ather. that led more experienced army to refrain from armi the then = become whlch chee mosis : =p : : 7 ; — ‘ *. he c* vatsuat POS aX. ts ae a tt ee ae We Talk lo 3000 Designs Suits to order, $15 to $50.

Amount of Property Belonging to Americans Destroyed in Cuba. WASHINGTON, March 11.—The Depart- ment of State has received claims to the amount of $21,000,000 on account of property destroyed in Cuba belonging to American citizens and also on account of injuries sustained by citizens, for which pecuniary indemnity ia sought. The peace treaty ex- presaly provided that the United States and Spain each should assume lIiability for all 'guch claims preferred by their respective citizenss, Therefere, the United States Gov- ernmenf is probably chargeable for all the damages sustained by Americans through Cuba by either the insurgent or Spanish troops, and in the case of some plantations owned by American citizens these losses were very heavy. Congrees made no provisions for the set- tlement of these claims, so the State De- | partment is at present unable to do more than merely to Rie them.

The clean statement of the eituation pu ’ lished in these eolumne called the attention } of the creditors of the club to the danger; — that confronted them and on Fri laet week they got together and took steps to protect themselves. At that meeting no less than ons O88 was. pledged and the men who petres it will see that the property is not gold for less than that figure.

If it is mneeses down to them they will take possession 0 the baseball park, National e fran- chise and eve ing elae named in the bill of sale and they will see that their rights are protected from then on, As oné of the. attorneys ty it at the meeting of the creditors of the club: ‘““‘We will protect obr i yynning up the property to at least $3,000. If Brush, Robi- s0n, or any one else wants to go above that they can go, but if the property’ is " ; hy a» ; _— . knocked down to us at $35,000 we will take possession of it and the man or body of men who attempt to stand in our way will etand an excellent chance of landing in the City Jalil.

If rhe League refuses to accept them, we will @t once go to Washington and compe] them by the court to do eo..If any @ne comes here and attempts to pl ball with a Na- tional League club aft the League has turned the purchaser down the games will be played in the City Jail. The mag- nates can try and euchre themselves at their meeting, but they have no chance when they go against the law. If the League clubs refuse to come here we will try and get other ciubs of other associations to come and, as the local fleld is a profitable one, we don't think it will be a difficult task to get clubs to come in here and ex- plore it.’ The legal advertisement of the sale of the Sportsman's Park and Club property refers to the location of the ground, stands, etc., and then names among the tyings to be sold all the property, rights, privileges and franchises of sald Sportsman's’ Park and Club, includin its membership or franchise in the ational League and qmorican Association of Professional Base- ll Clubs, which sai4 membership or fran- chise ie secured to gaid ortsman's Park and Olub by the con@titution or articles of said Natianal League and Clation of Professional Base- ball Clubs, adopted in December, 15891, and the amendments thefeto? The ¢reditors of the club will buy in the ty ged f as it is named in the bill of saie and will then demand ith actual and com- plete transfer to them. The sale of the club on Tuesday next will mark the passing of Von der Ahe from the local baseball field, at least for the time being. He will compromise with the Purchasers of the club, but if they will not compromise he will take his case to the preme Court and there try to make good is claim to the franchise in the National ague. Von der Aho said tho other day: “No One knows better than I do that the base- ball loving public want the Cleveland play- ers here and a change all around. And I am Willing to aid in that direction. In fact, had Robison and Iirush come to me we could have perfected an arrangement for the transfer of the Clevelands here in no time. But they ignored me and tried to come right in here and grab my property without paying a dollar for it, and, of course, I ohjected te that. 1 know the baseball people are sore at me for the Showing the St. Louls club has made in the past two or three years. I know they , blame me for the rotten work of’ the team last year, although I had he more to do with its management then than the man In the moon. But knowing that I am blamed and that the public want new faces, new management and everything else, I am willing to turn over the reins. But when I do that I must do it'in my own way. I am not gone to allow anyone to put a gun to my bead and hold me up withbu: making a little bit of a kick against such proceeding.”’ The writer was with Ven der Ahe when he entered the baseball business, managed his teain and business for bim and, in fact, ve him his first lessons ‘n baseball. In he spring of IA81 the first came of basebal) Was played in the newly bullt Sportman’s Park on Gtarn@ av Von der Ahe was tha President of the club then and the writer of these I'nes was its Secretary. A team calicd the Cincinnati Reds, just for con- venience aaks, and In no way related to the famous 8 of 'S, was playing an- other team Ghat had been christened the St. Louls Browns, after the famous Browns of 18%. At the conclusion of the game Von deft Ahe, taking the club's Secre. tary aside, ny at! , ; “How vas it? Vas it a bretty goot game? You know I know noding about it.” 4 That was Vondy’'s first lesson in baseball and he proved an apt pupil. . The writer penned the letter that bro: Comiskey here, and Von der Ahe’'s te wmmenced with Sens es hy coming, Oth. er bakeball men alvo helped the work along 2otably Ted Sullivan, now of Texas League . die Cuthbert, Dave Reid, and last no means igast, George Munson " Until Von der e's fortunes turned he was blessed with faithful HNeutenants, and t was their departure, perhaps, that led to tls downfall, Naturally of a confidin na- ure, he pald much attention to the advice f others, and it was this advice that led iim into the horse racing, shoot the chute und other ill-etarred ventures that nearly mded in hie rutn. That be was a prince !n the hey-dey of iis fortune his bitterest enemy must ad- nit. Calling the writer and George Munson to iim one day, he sat “The League folks are coming here We must give “them a banquet they orget.

The Browns and Vondy met the St. Louis party at Columbus, O., and Vondy sized up the crowd and said to the writer: “You brought a nice crowd; but there's one fellow I don’t know.’”’ “Who's that?’ “Gus Thomas, Where did you get him”’ “Qh, he represents the Republic,” was the white lie. Vondy watched Thomas and later said to the writer: “Did you say he was reporting for the Republic? Well, if he is, he must write in his sleep.” Thomas was tolia that Vondy was onto him, and when he reached New York he shook the party. Had it not been for Vondy shutting down on Thomas, New York would never have fet eyes on “In Mizzoura,”’ “Alabama” and the other plays which Thomas wrote after being cast adrift in the Metropolis. When the League folks were at the last ditch in their fight with the Brotherhood, it was Vondy’s bank account and pluck that led them out of the wilderness. Dame Fortune emilel and frowned on Von der Aho in all sorts of ways during the 2) years of ‘his life that he devoted to baseball. He had troubles at home and, though often lanocent as a babe, he took the blame for all of them. When the fire came that destroyed Sportsman’s Park he was separated from all the companions of his earlier years and he risked his life in the fire to save the life of his greyhound, Fly. the only real friend that appeared to be left to him. Most men at such a time would have given up hope, but Vondy bore up under it all without a miirmur and went on rebuilding his place with all the ardour and enterprise of a boy. The man has lived a hundred years in the past ™, but to-day he looks !ike a well-to- a6 man of 4. His face is ruddy and his features shew thatthe has been a good liver, but he is stalwart and straight of frame, always neatiy dressed and looks good for many a year to come. A. H. BPINK. THE COURSING MEN. They Have Organized and Will Soon Commence Their Meetings. The coursing men at last eee their way to a renewal of the sport. After considerable backing and filling the St. Louis Coursing Club hag been incor- porated, Zl acres of land have been rented and contracts entered upon for the erec- tion of a fence and necessary buildings. J. J. Lavin is the president of the new organization; James Curran, vice presi- dent, and Frank Jones, secretary and treasurer. The new coursing grounds are very ac- ceseible, the main entrance to the rk being directly sppenne Hill Side Station, on the Wabash ilroad, The Page av. extension of the Lindell line runs right to the new location, which can also be reached. by the Suburban and Baston av. cars. .President Lavin is authority for the statement. that sufficient escapes will be bullt to give the jack rabbits a chance to elude their canine enemies, and that there will be a coursing meet before the spring days come to a close.

The third annual bench show of dogs, under the auspices of the St. Louis Kennel Club, will be held in the Coliseum this week. The exhibition will be thrown open to the public at 10 o'clock next Wednesday morn- ing, and the doors will remain open from then until midnight Saturday. It is gratifying to all 8t. Louisans to know that this city can boast of the larg- est and ‘highest class bench show ever held in a 'Western city. Chicago generally claims precedent in all things over St. ‘Louis, but figures speak for themselves. The city by the lake closed tte doors last evening on a dog show which was a pro- nounce success, yet St. Louis has more entries, and many in the vicinity of Chi- cago overlooked the “Mascoutah Kennel Club's exhibition and took pains to enter their dogs in the St. Louis. It is interesting at this time to compare the official list of entries to the Chicago show with that of St. Louis, and for that reason the figures are given below: CHICAGO. , Bull terries Mastiffs ..

All that is necessary now is for the = to give approval to the earnest efforts of the members of the St. Loulg Kennel Club, by giving the d a rousing reception. This year the pet dog exhibit will prove a treat to lovers of the home pet, and especially to the ladies. Locally this ex- hibit will be quite large, and combined with the lar outside exhibit, including Mrs, Dr. Walter Stanton’g lot from New York and those of Mrs. Moore from Omaha, besides numerous entries from other distant points, it will be equal if not superior to the recent large exhibit of this particular kind of dog in New York. Field dogs in the coming show will far exceed in numbers the recent show in Chi- cago, while it almost equals the New York exhibit. In the pointer classes St. Louls has 67 entries to Chicago's 41. In the setter class mecage had 67 entries and 8t. Louis as Frank Jay Gould's kennel, fncluding his numerous prize winners from New York and Chicago, will form a large portion of the St. Bernard exhibit. The millionaire dog owner conveys his thoroughbred pets over the country in a private car. Frank Gould is a great admirer of the St. Ber- nard, and the care he takes of his favor- ites is fully reciprocated by his obedient, faithful ana intelligent canine friends. He never allows his trainers to lose sight of them for a moment and engages special quarters tn every city he visits, where they have a spacious place to exercise and keep in condition for their exhibit. His lot in- cludes the famous smooth-coated Active and the rough-coated Marvelcroft, Horn- sea Countess, Chantrell Princess and Chan- trell Kitty, winners in every show in which they were exhibited. Mr. Gould’s cup for the best American bred St. pernard puppy is probably the most valuable trophy offered. It is a u- tiful solM silver, geld-lined cup, weighin °s ounces. As there are but two & Bernari uppies entered, and one of thabe entries fs made by (Mies Mabel F. Filley of St. Louls, it is to be hoped that Miss Filley has a good enough St. Bernard puppy to keep Frank Jay Gould's cup in St. Louis. The best kind of pointers, setters, St. Rernards, Great Danes an reyhounds have been obtained by St. Louisans since dog shows were inaugurated here, and at the forthcoming exhibition magnificent specimens of dogs of these breeds will be seen. Beside the regular show of fine Wormwood's and monk circus and Hubert's trick dog combination will form a continuous show |! mt of the bench exhibit, and as these combinations the famous sailed oa (ie sveanier Ladqnie ue : Md are renowned they will -% | pitelated ‘by ail vistors to the regular ex- mn * NEW RACING BOARD THE MEN |ARE ALL EMINENTLY QUALIFIED FOR THE WORK. So we have the new Racing Board at last and the members have their - offices open for business. Fred Gerlach of Chicago is the Chalr- man, and a better man for the place could not be found, barring ‘his old chief, George LD. Gideon. The appointments of the members of the new ‘board show that there were no po- litical considerations, but that the men were chosen on account of their fitness. Indeed, the Racing Board has been singu- larly free from politics except during the two terms of Isaac B. Potter, who could not keep politics out of a first-class funeral. Mott was the only chairman who was ap- pointed as a reward for wire-pulling, and no man left such an unsatisfactory record behind him. The new chairman was ap- pointed -on the board by President Willi- s0n when he was unknown outside the State of Illinois, When Elliott ran for the presidency Gerlach bitterly opposed him, and yet Elliott reappointed Fred on the board. Potter éven offered him his posi- tion again, but as Potter and politics are Synonomous Gerlach could not mix up in his €ame and declined. The other members of the board are equally as fit for their positions as Gerlach is for the leadership. Arthur W. Robinson has served for two years, taking the place of Henry W. Robinson in the New England district. His work ‘has been a credit to him and to the L. A. W. C. A. Dimon of Philadelphia is the President of the Asso- ciated Cycling Clubs of that city and di- rected the national meet held there in 1897. The fact that he was recommended by Gideon stamps him az a fit man W. I. Doty of Denver was for one year the Colo. rado representative of the board, a posi- tion involving all the responsibilities of a member with the exception of voting, and for the past two years ‘he has been the Western member, having in charge the out- law district of California. Before Sheridan was appointed Doty was also in charge of Missouri. He has a clean record, and his reappointment is a desrved honor. J. W. Brigman of Louisville is the South- ern members. Mr. Brigman was one of the leading men in the famous Louisville national meet of 1896, and has been promi- nent in nearly all of the meets held in that city during the last three or four years. He is thoroughly familiar with the gport, Take it all in all the 1899 Racing Board fs thoroughly good and es Yann of hand- ling the problems before it. Many people will regret the retirement of the local member, John B. Sheridan, and many will not. Among the latter class is John B. himself. Sheridan had studied the errors of his predécessor, and when he was appointed determined to commit none of them and not to lose his position among cyclists by virtue of his position. I was surprised that Sheridan ever went on the board, for he had gigs said that the acceptance of such an appointment was os to a resignation from popularity. is own experience has borne out his words. Even the smooth, politic, suave Sheridan could not hold the place and hold his grip on popularity. He has lost the latter, but it ts nothing to his discredit. The sins of the racing rules are visited on the men who administer them, and Sher- idan steps back into private life with more enemies, but with a clear conscience. in the district of the Board, and St. ch’'s close atten- Missoun is now Chairman of the -_ Louis will have Mr. Gerla tion. It seems that I unwittingly did the Cen- tury Road Club of Missouri! an injustice in my column last Sunday when 1 stated that “the Centuries are packed away in a fiat.” I did not mean to say anything against this club or to refer to it in a dis- paraging manner. I was dwelling on the conditions of cycle clubs in general, and the remark was intended to apply only to gen- eral conditions, Evidently I did not make myself clear to the Centuries, for I received the following letter from Dr. John T. Sibley, the Presi- dent of the club: ‘‘Permit me to protest against your arti- cle in last Sunday's Post-Dispatch, so far as it refers to the affairs of the Century Road Club of Missouri. You heve been misinformed, and I believe you will be fair enough to make proper corrections. Our club was never in better condition than it is to-day. The membership is about what it has been for the past four years, and our quarters are more comfortable than any we have ever had; and better than those occupied by the Kennetts, South Sides and Mercuries, when they Were at their best and constituted a majority in the associated cycling clubs. “We have received six new members In the past 30) days and our méetings were never so well attended. Our change of quarters was made simply as a matter of convenience, and our expenses have not been materially reduced. TheCentury Road Club of Missouri is a St. Louis fixture.” I adopt every one of Dr. Sibley'’s state- ments as my own and am glad to learn that we have at leaet one solid and sub- stantial club left In the city. I knew that the Centuries had moved into a fiat, and, puttl this together with the fact that Sean hae not been making themselves heard of late, I concluded that they were sim drif with the ik am that 1 was en, and that the turies exe deserve oy success ‘myx awa household, and. ] son. for being able to keep their heads up in such times. Charlie Mears has benn given the posi- tion of Il. A. W. representative to the In- ternational Cyclists’ Association to make up for his disappointment in not receiving the Racing Board Chairmanship. Affairs of the Athletic Park track aré somewhat complicated, and it is doubtful if many meets will be held there this sea- @ management is somewhat tiled. up with litigation, and there is a $1000 fine hanging over the track on account of the outlaw races. At present no one can obtain a sanction from the L. A. W. for races to be held there, and the outlaws, if they kee? up their rebellion long enough, will drift into town only once or twice this sum- mer. I understand that an effort will be made ave the track reinstated by the L. 4i. . The quarterly meeting of the Missouri Division Board of Officers was held at the Century Club last night. : I attended the auction of the St. outs Cycling Club last week and was much e6ur- prised at the figures the furnishings brought. The merest trifles sold for almost all of their value, and the richer things brotght far above the average prices. As the auction was confined to members of the club I suppose sentiment had a good deal to do with the figures, but I did not notice any signs of ead ness on the part of the members at the demise of the club. It seemed more like a picnic than a fu- neral and was the strongest evidence that the club had outlived its usefulness. The club will pay all its debts and have a enough to declare a goodly divi- Jjend. Chief Consul Billingsley has his board of officers at work on the dry streets sched- ule to submit to the Street Department: It is proposed to follow pretty much the same plan as heretofore, as the former schedule, when the etreets were kept dry, was satisfactory.

Great Interest Being Taken in the Bout Between Rauch and Noel. The big boxing event of this week will be the 12-round bout to take place at the Business Men’s Gym on Thursday night be- tween Frankie Noel of St. Louls and Mor- ris Rauch of Chicago. The mill will carry with it the champion- ship of Chicago and St. Louis in the ban- tamweight boxing line. When these two last met honors appeared very even, but the referee gave the bout to Noel. Rauch’s friends have been sore ever since, and they will uy 4° £. even oel again on when their man meets Thursday night. During the week just passed Ruhlin licked Goddard and Lavigne was beaten by ‘“Mys- terious Billy’’ Smith. The defeat of Lavigne was a great surprise to phe paowts ones, but every one looked for Rublin to win from oddard., Tommy Ryan, the Syracuse boxer who had two such tively bouts with Kid McCoy was in St. Louis on AMaturcay, accompanied by big Jake Efoltman. he two me here from ‘Hot Springs and left tu y night for Cineinnatl, where, on Monday, Ryan meets Paddy Purtell.

Nerves on Edge Could not Concentrate my Thoughts; Could not Sleep an Hour at a Time without Waking; Was Almost Distracted. Aiter Years of Suffering I Was Cured by Dr. Miles’ Nervine. When the nervous system is so run down and worn out that sleep refuses to come to its relief, the life forces are rapidly consumed and both physical and mental faculties soon lose all power of recuperation. Nerve force is ‘necessary to run the human machine and must be sup- plied from some source of it breaks down. Dr. Miles’ Restorative Nerv- ine nourishes those organs that are most in want. It soothes the irri- tated nerves: brings rest and re- care whatever. There was not a night in all that time that I slept over one hour without waking; and when I would awake my nerves would be so unstrung and feel as if they were on edge. My stomach was very weak, and I suffered greatly from severe headaches. We spent several hundred dollars with doctors and for various proprietary medicines, but it was of no use. After having been taken to Chicago, and having been treated by some eminent specialist, from whom I received no benefit whatever, I became almost dis- tracted. I saw an advertisement of Dr. Miles’ Restorative Nervine, and I pro- cured a bottle and used it according to freshing sleep to the tired brain, and cures nervous disorders of every kind. interesting reading for those who are suffering from nervous troubles. “For a mumber of years I suffered se- verely from nervous prostration.

REAL ESTATE NEWS, SEVERAL IMPORTANT SALES AND LEASES ON WASHINGTON AV. THE JEFFERSON BUILDING. Agents’ Reports of Sales—Personal Notes—Leading Transfers of the Week—County Transfers. This is a eeason when disagreeable weather may be expected, and men are not disappointed. The downpour of rain retards the real estate business; but agents are eatisfied that nothing is w@nted except pleasant days to inaugurate a genuine re- vival. The inquiry is earnest, and buyers ask for cash prices. Renting is good fur the early season, and the loan market is as active as could be expected, with the ruling rate of interest 6 r cent, although this is not easily ob- Fained, and concessions must be made to secure it. -_-_—---f- -- All Are for Expansion. The Schwab Clothing Co., which have for A ap occupied the premises 11i4 and 1115 aghington av., have moved into larger quarters in the new Brown Building at the southeast corner of Washington av. and Twelfth et.

Selz, Schwab & Co. of Chicago. This firm has prided itself upon being the largest shve house im the , and, as a matter of courtesy, St. Louls has not taken the trouble to dispute the title. because every man in St. Louis nows that the honor belongs in this c:.ty. Tthout going into the merits of this in- Gisputable point, however, the rece ac- tion of Messrs. Seiz, Schwab & Co. Is sig- nificant of their recognition of the fact that Bt. Lou's is the greatest shoe market in the United States; for this branch is to supply all tnat vast trade which finds its matural supply in this city. and can find it where else. Any firm that aims to reach t must come here The upper portion of the same building hae been leased by the Anderson-Wade Realty Co. to Messrs. Rice, Stix & Co., who ocoupy the grvat building on the east- ern half of the same block, and who found it necessary to have enlarged quarters. This fills the buliding anew as swon as it Was vacant, and shaws that everybody in- terested in the matter to be an expansion- fist of the best kind. The Schwab Clothing Co. were compelled to expand into larger varters by their srowing trade. Messrs. lz, Schwab & Co. found that they must expand from Chicago into St. Lou's to meet the growing demands of their bus/i- mess, ami Mersrs. Rice, Stix & Co. had to expand for a similar reason.

It is understood that the new structure now going up at the northeast corner of Sixth and Olive sts. is to be called the Jef- ferson Building. (Messrs. M. R. Collins, Pes Co., the agents, want to call it the Hall Building, in honor of the gentleman who so skilifully organized the enterprise, but Mr, Hall has an eye to patriotism as well as to pride, and it is understood that he is urging the other name, in honor of the President who negotiated the Louisiana Purchase, and who is regarded as the pa- tron saint of modern democracy. As St. Louis is the capital of the Louisiana Pur- chase, and is about to celebrate that act with an exposition, which is to excel any- thing the world has yet seen, it seems fit- ting to Mr. Hall and hie adherents in the matter that the name of Jefferson should attach to the structure. Go far Mr. Hal! seems to be having the best of the argu- ment and the ‘Jefferson Building” it will most likely be. . Meanwhile the workmen began yesterday to lay the white enameled brick in the front columns of the building, and é# Is safe to Say that a more tasteful and beautiful ef- fect has not been seen in this city. The harmony of the color in the brick with that in the stone is perfect, and the outlines so far as developed indicate a design that is without flaw. A Down-Town Leasehold Sold.

The Week’s Stock Market Has Be2n Feverish, but the General Trend Was Toward Higher Prices. Special to the Post-Dispatch. NEW YORK, ‘March 11.—It may be said that all the indications of March foreign trade of the oountry point to a balance in our favor of about $35,000,000—an unusual amount for that month, and more than half as much as in February. If this thing keeps on much longer the money market of the whole world will be made in Wall st., and not at the Bank of England. It was reassuring that the foreign ex- change market declined materially when- ever the money market showed geigns of serioug hardening. The exchange market is the safety valve, so to speak, of the present situation in money. Even at this unusual season we would import much gold if rates for money should rise to 4&or 6 per cent, for we have open credits ofr at least a hundred millions in Europe upon which we could draw if necessary. Tine amount at Our disposal does not begin to be rep- resented by the hypothecated long sterling bills which our banks are carrying as coi- lateral for loans. We could know more about this international balance if we could get at the hooks of a dozen of our foreign Dankers The stock market the past week has been feverish, but the general trend has been to- ward higher prices. The market presents the usual characteristics of the month of March, which traders always expect to be one Of disappointments. It is a between seasons period in speculation; but the Spring is near, and the market will soon take on a better tone with the new season. ‘The short interest is an important ele- ment of strength. There is no more satis- factory evidence of the soundness of gener- @] business conditions and prospects than the progress of the iron and steel industry. in every branch of it prices are advancing and the sellers are more independent than ever before. Some of the Philadeiphia com- panies which use a great deai of iron were told last week that they could not be Siven contracts for the torward delivery of iron in the next six months, except at about 16 per cent advance over the present prices. Naturally, they do not care to make euch contracts, The biast furnaces all over the country are busy and all the available old furnaces are started up. This must tell in the end upon the securities of the iron and steel companies. Jennessee Coal and Iron shares have risen wherever the general market was in good shape, and Colorado Fuel and Iron stocks have reflected the conditions already referred to in these columns. The company has earned a large surplus over its charges in seven months. Steel and Wire is to pay a dividend on its common stock in Juiy. This issue is now in the hands of a pool which has accumulated 125,40 shares, but which was forced to pay for its stock much more than it expected. The preferred is considered in the investment class already It is aisO Worth while to watch Federa] Steel stocks, for the common is earning at the rate of about 9 per cent per an- num. St. Paul's directors made only the regu- lar dividend, which was ultra conservative. The road could have paid at the rate of 8 er cent per annum without impoverish- ng itself. The stockholders are long gsuf- fering, but they would seem to be in the right in protesting against such a dividend olicy as has been adopted. The Union ’acific Management also made only 14% per cent dividend on the preferred stock. They were better justified in so doing, for the new company in its brief existence has ex- pended no less than $9,000,000 on its prop- erty in permanent improvemente.

Po eee » a ha a ce tae BELIEVE THEY HAVE THE BEST) OF THE GRAIN SITUATION. LARGE RESERVE BY FARMERS. Trading Light and Prices May Be Af- fected by the Report on World’s Visible Supply. ~ At the end of a week's trading which, while not heavy. was nerve-wearing, the bears believe more firmly than ever that they have the best of the grain situation. The long-expected Government crop re- port made public Friday confirms them In the opinion that prices will continue to range down except occasionally, when short interests become active in the pit. It was mainly beeause of uncertainty as to the character of the report that trading was extremely light early in the week. From time to time forecasts of the re- port came over the wires. The statement awaited with the.greatest interest was in reference to the reserves of the wheat in the hands of farmers. Some of the “‘flash- es"’ were tolerably accurate. The one on which the bears relied most, and which caused a revival of trading toward the end of the week, was to the effect that the re- serves would be reported as amounting to 183,000,000 bushels, The selling side could not see anything but depression of prices following figures of that kind, There were those among the bulls who contended tuat the news was not bullish, because of the extremely light reserves last year, which, they said, would more than counterbalance the surplus this season. Actual trading is the great speculation index. Judged by it, the bulls were weak in the support of their theory. The official firures riday showed the reserves to bo 198,000,000 bushels. This gave additional armmun tion to the beara’ equip- ment. Yesterday morning they started in with thetr hammers ani knocked a cent off the market. The bulls*strugglied val- lantiy, buying occasionaYy to keep the sag from increasing. They succeeded fairly well. It is regarded as coubtful whether next week's trading wlil be more active than that of the weck just passed. While the bears my stl! follow up their advan- tage no marked change in the specviative situation is looked for at this time. There are still many problematical points to be determined. Among these are the foreign countries’ shipments and _ reserves, on which the statistic:ans are just now keep- ing close watch. ° The export business has held its own fairly well during the week. Liverpool cables ruled dull and practically unchanged, as did London. Paris showed slight ad- vances, while Antwerp wae weaker. The Chicago Board of Trade at the begin- ning of the week reported an increase of 4,8344.000 bushels in wheat on passage, com- pared with the preceding week. The re- ceipts of wheat at the principal spring and winter points since August 1, have been 212,000,000 bushels, an increase of 36,000,000 bushels over last year’s figures for the same period. This increase was one of the frequently advanced bear arguments dur- ing the week. The report on the world’s visible supply to-morrow will be awaited with interest. Predictions are out that it may show a very considerable increase. Weather is the etronghold of the bulls just now. They base their hopes on possibility of a short crop. The weather news of the week has been most conflicting. Illinois reports damage in nine counties and similar reports come from Indiana, There has been lack of news from the great Nebraska wheat belt, which produced #,- 000,000 bushels last year. Along with the report of light raing in California comes the statement that the Golden Gate State will not cut so great a figure after al in the opinion of some ex- perts, who present records to show that California produced only 12,000,000 bu of wheat last year, whereas it produced 32,000,- 000 bu in 1897 and 46,000,000 bu in 1896, This is taken as an indication fhat California’s wheat output may be expected to be pro- portionately less this year. Corn continued firm during the week, though there was little speculative trad- ing, and less news to affect the market Oats was in winter quarters. There was practically no pit trading, though The sam- ple market was a good one at an upward range of prices. The lack of speculation by no means detracts from St. Louls’ repu- tation as one of the great oats markets of the world. ST. LOUIS SECURITIES.

HUNDREDS RESTORED TO PERMANENT HEALTH. Twenty-Five Years Agoa Minister of the Gospel on the Verge of Death. To-Day the Worid’s Greatest Benefactor. The eyes of the entire world are turned towards Nevada, Mo., which has been made famous by that great scientist, Prof. "Welt- mer, known as the Magnetic Healer. For It is he who has discovered the method whereby he disperses all ailments as if by magic without the aid of medicines. This remarkable man about 2% years ago stood on the very verge of death. At that time he was a minister of the gospel, and by throwing his entire soul into his good work he contracted the dread disease of con- sumption. The best physicians were called to his aid, but he was told that he must die. It was at this time, as if by an in- spiration, he discovered his magnetic power and thereby became a well man, He then gave up preaching the word of God, as he thought it would be sacrilegious to keep his great power to himself. How well he has alded humanity is substantiated by the thousands that he has cured of every imag- inable disease. Many of his cures have, indeed, been miraculous. A few instances of which are mentioned below: Mr. John 8. Small, Colfax, IIL, was deat in his left ear for seven years; could not hear a watch tick when placed against his Was permanently cured in three days by Prof. Weltmer. Mr. L. W. Rains, @ wealthy lumberman of Hornbeak, Tenn., suffered constantly with kidney trouble for 2 years, also with constipation and pros- tatic troubles. Exhausted the beet medical skill, but no relief. He fortunately heard ear. of Prof. Weltmer and was soon restored to perfect health, and now says this treatment will cure anybody. Mrs. M. E. Hawkins, Louisburg, Kan., was affilcted 2 years with prolapsus and enlargement of the womb, indigestion and perpetual headache, Tried everything that offered relief and gave up in despair. Heard of Prof. Weltmer, took his treatrnent one week and was permanent- ly restored to health, Prof. Weltmer also possesses the remark- able ability to cure people at a distance, and hundreds have been restored in this way. Mr. G. W. Hightower, Tiff City, Mo., was a total wreck, having suffered many years with stomach, liver and kindred troubles. Tried everything without relief. Fully restored by Prof. Weltmer’s Absent Method. Mr. H. B. Rose, Novelty, Mo., had a huge goitre on his neck that was choking him to death. Removed in a single night by thig performer of miracles. Mrs. Minnie Porter, Texarkana, Tez., affiicted for 18 months with and oth- er diseases, and for 12 unable to get out of her bed. Was expected to dle at any time. Permanently restored by Prof. Weltmer’s Absent Method and has gained 65 pounds, Mrs. Lavisa Dudley, Barry, TIL, suffered for 3 years with neuralgia and stomach troubles. Nothing but morphine would lieve her. Permanently cured in a weeks by the Absent Method of ment. Mrs. M. A. Devault, Deflance, O., was flicted five years with dropsy, stomach kidney troubles, Could get no medical science. Was fully restored by sent Treatment In 10 days. Miss Phoebe W. Couzins, the noted lawyer, ex-United States Marshal and Sec- World’s Fair, had not walked nor even stood on her feet for nearly three years, having been afflicted rheumatism arthritis. She tried hospitals and all kinds of treatment without any relief whatever After being treated ea few weeks by Prof, Weltmer her left limb is straightened an‘ knee restored to its original condition, and is now walking to her meals on crutches. Before coming to Nevada she was told that amputation of her limbs or breaking the knee joints was the only salvation, Great crowds are flocking to Nevada, Mo.

From a Boat and Drowned. WIND VELOCITY OF 70 MILES. WINDOW PANES BROKEN AND SIGNS BLOWN DOWN. 7 7 A Policeman Had a Narrow Escape and a Printer Was Severely Cut by Falling Glass. The gale last night, which gained in velocity from #.miles an hour at 6 o'clock to nearly 70 miles at W o'clock, caused at least one death in St. Louis. John Dietert was @rowned at the foot of St. George st. The body has not been re- covered. ; Dietert, who was 2 years old, and lived with his parents at #8 Sidney st., had crossed the river in a skiff and had landed two passengers on the Illinois side. The wind on his return was biowing a gale. It was all he could do to keep the skiff afloat, much less keep it on its course. The wind at times almost lifted it from the water and the waves swept over the craft. Dietert etruggied bravely to reach the shore. When he was within 50 feet of land and safety a heavier blast than he had yet encountered struck the little boat. It was lifted on the crest of a wave, then dipped down and was capsized. The boat floated bottom side up and the young man sank. The blow in St..Louis was the strongest of the season. The winds tore through the city on the north and south atreets at a terrific rate all the night, and window glass, transom glass, signs, sheds, poles, wires and emokestack clattered down and gave the night a tornado touch. Twenty-six miles an hour is fixed ®y the Weather Bu- reau as the maximum limit of normal winds. At nightfall last night the wind in St. Louls was traveling forty miles an hour, and it was a wild night in the city. The wind biew hard all the time and came in gusts, in addition, and there was a world of hat chasing to do. A number of acci- dents occurred. Thomas Burke, a printer, was struck by falling glass while passing the Burlington Building. His injuries necessiiated medical attendance. At 7:15 o'clock a swinging plate glass window in the office of Dr. C. G. Cleveland, on the second fioor of the Commercial swung open.and broke with a crash. The plate glas¥ fell and shivered upon the sidewalk, aarrowly missing a number of pedestrians, A glass sign frame was also biown to the sidewalk near Sev- enth and Olive. A skylight at the office of Dr. J. B. Kenl- @on at 62) Olive st. was blown Into the Street. entailing a loss of $50. At Seventh and Olive at. a Hated sign was destroyed.

Ovuvvdc * = ar 4 Ch CARE OF THE SCALP. Practical Hints on Treatment That Will Keep the Hair Healthy. By Miss J. I. Lea. N THE care of the scalp the first con- sideration is cleanliness. The gecaip should be kept scrupulously clean. The means to this end are frequent brushing and shampooing at least once a fortnight. “Natural oil” is unnatural soil, ¢o do wot defer this absolutely essential bath for any such consideration. Neither does Cleansing the scalp give one cold. I have found frequently that a thorough shampoo would break up a cold. When oll enough has accumulated on the scalp or hair to be noticeable it is time to remove it. No one will contend that it weakens the skin to keep it clean, ab- eolutely clean, and no logical reason exists for the contrary opinion to be held in re- gard to hair. Where sofl accumulates bacteria find a lodgment and work destruction. In the case of the scalp their detritus is polson- ous, acting on the hair by burrowing in the follicle. weakening the hair shaft and Gradually stopping its growth altogether. No alkali should be used in shampooing. Only a good soap, such as green soap (the official name of a pure soap). Borax, soda, ammonia and the like absolutely destroy the shiny, gleaming surface of the hair tube and under no circumstances should be used. Not even in infinitesimal quan- tities. Use plenty of soap; you cannot use too much, but you can use too littce. I should like to shout this last injunction go every eolitary individual who admits the necessity of shampooing might hear me. Sufficient soap must be used that there may be sufficient free alkali to unite with the fat on the hair forming more soap, which is very readily rinsed out with the hot water bath. This should be followed by thorough douching with cold water for the tonic effect These two waters are sufficient for the Fineing, provided there has been enough soap used. If the comb or brush becomes sticky you may be quite sure that you had too little soap and not “that you did not rinse the soap out.” Iinless there be some indication to the contrary, the hair should be brushed for a few minutes daily, preferably with a stiff brush, bristle& set far apart. Tf dandruff and falling hair persist after these measures, some disease exists and a specialist should be consulted. Dandruff Neglected inevitably leads to baldness, for it is a symptom of a diseased condition, however luxuriant the hair growth may seem. It is doubtless unnecessary in this day and age to say never use a fine comb. If the hair comes out abnormally after the hygienic regime is inaugurated, something is wrong. It may be one thing or several combined. One of the most frequent causes after uncleanliness, is lowered vitality, es- tablishing an anaemic condition of the scalp, which, in other words, is starva- tion of the hair follicle. We know that during a fever the nutri- tion is interrupted, the hair ceases to grow, after three or four months it comes out. The system is becoming normal, the follicle is plumping out: the shaft canal expands; the old hair drops out to be followed by a > Rew one in the same canal. thon must be treated systematically. Uniike the other skin appendages, nails and teeth, hairs do not form a ridge or Splice and continue to grow. This condi- Al the hair that is dead, |. e., that has ceased to grow—will come out. The stimulation to the follicle must be forced and even then it is nip and tuck or the patient will be temporarily bald. Shaving the scalp is never indicated for this condition. We have proved that de- Priving an organ of its function weakens the power of functioning unless the organ needs rest. Manifestly a follicle just ex- hibiting signs of recuperation does not need reat. To force this rest is th disceurage the ~ a i, “ . ins j wt va " * ® . m-?

The superstition to the contrary has been perpetrated by the barbers, doubtless in consideration of the pour bouir invari-" ably received for the service. At night women should allow the hair to flow loosely over the pillow. Under no conditions should the same partings be re- tained from day to day. It is well to charge the weight of hair in dressing it from time to time. superfluous to say that all rolls, nets, braids, puffs and artificial things are in- jurious, as are also curling irons and kids. Until women shall learn that perfected naturalness is the ideal of beauty these things will prevail. The best hairpin is the proper size shell or bone. Falling that, those of hard rub- ber are next best. No metal hairpin should ever be used, unless those of gold and silver be excepted. How to prevent gray hair I know to be a vital question. I can only add to what I have already said, words, “‘Don't worry.”’ The mental attitude achieved by follow- ing this irjunction will accomplish every- thing. If, however, your vitality was low- ered before this truth came to you, much can be done by electricity, oxygen, etc., if you have planted your feet firmly on the right path, then no longer shall care and worry have dominion over you. Think if you will, study and meditate, for by exercise our brain cells increase, but banish forever dull care. Right will pre- vail in the end and fear that it might not never helped its success. ALCOHOL IN MEDICINE. By Dr. Robert Edward Wilson. LCOHOL, as a drug, has almost dis- A appeared from the practice of medci- cine, It is generally recognized that it is not a stimulant. There was a time when brandy was the universal medicine in fever. A number of medical men hold fast to the belief that brandy supports. Our knowledge of the action of alcohol in disease is almost empiric. It has been found that those physicians who it in ty- phoid fever and pneumonia lose a large per- centage of their cases, while those whe treat these diseases without alcohol gel- dom lose a cage. The effect of alcoho) is to stimuiate the heart to increased circulation and respira- tion. In mitral disease of the heart it adds fuel to the fire. In fever we have too rap- id circulation and respiration with high temperature. It would folly to use a drug that would increase these conditions. Since that is just what we wish to avoid. Leading medical men have noted that while the action of the heart is increased from the use of alcohol, its force or power is diminished, Alcohol being chemically a hydrate, must, by physiologic principles, increase the heat of the system There are many remedies which have a tendency to lower the temperature and shorten the disease. Dr. Samuel Wilks, F. R. 8., con- Sulting physician to Guy's Hospital, Lon! don, says: the It Is these use be “I found it necessary to with- Stand the use of alcohol in medicine at an early period of my practice. It lowers the functions, causes degeneration of the nerve centers and produces general paralysis, trembling lips, shaky hands, unsteacy walk: muscles undergo a change; heart becomes fatty, nerves hardened and thickened from neuritis; digestive organs become morbid, loathing food; ulceraticn, thickening of the walls of the stomach and intestinal! tract.” USES OF SALT. By Dr. Louis Pim. ALT is a great natural remedy. A S weak solution of salt and water is one of the best remedies for inperfect digestion and for a cold in the head there are few things better. Snuff up a little from the hollow of the hand, A handful or two of rock salt added to the bath acts as an invigorator, and a gargle of weak solu- tion is a ready retnedy for an ordinary sore throat. For the teeth salt and water is very cleansing and it hardens the gums. Severe pains in the bowels and stomach are often speedily relieved by the application of a bag of hot salt.

DR. TUFFIER’S METHOD OF MANIPULATING THE HUMAN HEART. - A, Right Auricle; B, Right Ventricle; C, Sixth Rib: D, Fifth Rib; E, Lobe of Lung. R. TUFFIER of the Hospital de la [) Pitie, Paris, has discovered that by surgical and mechanical means life may be restored to the human body after death. Dr. Tuffier made the first experiments with animals, and his success was such that he determined to experiment next with a human. Recently while the doctor was lecturing before his class an attache of the hosp tal c2me running in and announced that Jean Soulie, a patient, had just died with appendicitis. Dr. Tuffier took his class to the ward and made the experiment before his assistants and students. The corpse was that of a man & years of age. Dr. Tuffier laid the heart bare, stimulated the heart muscle with his fingers and thumb, put the blood in circulation and restored the actually dead to actual life for the first time in history. STATEMENT BY DR. TUFFIER. It is quite true that we recently restored to life a dead man, It is also true that we have restored to life fifty animals. Al biologists now admit that dead anl- mals can be brought back to life. This has been demonstrated over and over. Why, therefore, cannot the same be done for man? Death is merely the arrest of cir- culation and. respiration. If this arrest be due to a mechanical accident, it is obvious that the obstacle can be overcome by put- ting the machinery of life again in motion. If a physician happen to be at hand at the moment when the circulation stops resuscl- tation is not difficult. This resuscitation is well known to be often accomplished in the case of people who have been drowned or poisoned by gas, or who have received a severe blow in the epigastric region, injur- ing “the solar plexus; I can restore to life almost any dead man whose heart is sound and who is brought to me within a few minutes after death. I make an incision in his breast, take his heart in my fingers, and by a series of delicate manipulations restore the circula- tion of the blood and bring the dead man to life again. The circulation becomes quite normal after this operation. Nothing could be clearer than the case of the young man whom we restored to life recently at the Hospital de la Pitie. I was explaining a physiological question to my class of some forty students, when an at- tendant rushed into the lecture hall and told me that a young man had d@fed sud- denly in another part of the hospital. Thither I took my whole class, The man had died of appendicitis. He was dead be- yond all possibility of doubt. In the presence of my assistant, Dr. Du- mont, and all my pupils I cut the man’s side open and pressed his heart with my fingers. The blood circulated, he began to breathe, he opened his eyes, he looked around, he talled. Then I stopped, and after three minutes the young man was dead again. I repeated the experiment, putting the heart in better action, and the young man lived for two hours. He mightas well have lived for two years, or for twenty, if I had had proper mechanical means at hand to perfect the resuscitation which I had te- gun. ’ I did not keep Soulie alive permanently simply because I had not the Jelleate me- chanical contrivance necessary with which to work constantly upon his heart, driving the blood to the body. I restored life tem- porarily with my hand, but I could not keep this up long enough to make his re- covery permanent. So I had to let him die. The mechanism I speak of can be con- structed without great difficulty. Every dead person cannot be restored to life, but we now know by experiments which are beyond question that some dead men can be brought back again. If the testimony of the senses of so mony scientific witnesses in tha case of young Soulle were at fault such a fact would be more wonderful than his restoration to life. By Dr. Arthur E, Mink of St. Louis. O ONE who is really dead can be N brought back to life. Thre are cer- tain manifest characteristics of true death, viz.: Absolute cessation of respira- tion and heart action, The arteries leading form the theart contract and drive their contents into the capillaries and veins. Ri- gor mortis, or the death stiffening, sets in soon. The body becomes cold and the skin soon becomes discolored, especially about the abdomen and back, from the combina- tion of the iron of the blood with the gases of decomposition. Of course there are cases of suspended animation, or apparent death, where the action of the heart and respiration are so feeble as to escape detection. Such could only be the case with Dr. Tuffier’s patient, if the account be true, as the test he used (insensibility to burns) is no evidence of real death. This being the case, the doctor was guilty of criminat rashness, as this operation destroyed any chance of the patient's permanent restora- tion to life. ;' The safest thing for him to have done would have been the use of artificial respf- ration, electricity, artificial heat, hypoder- mics of brandy, etc. | Even though he could thave succeeded In re-establishing the heart's action it would VERTIGO, By Dr. T. A. Martin. ANY persons who suffer from attacks M of dizziness or vertigo imagine that their ailment is caused by an afflic- tion of the heart. In nine cases out of every ten this theory is erroneous. The stomach is the seat of such troubles and indigestion the moving cause. Food is taken iato the stomach that it cannot prepare for distribution throughout the System without a tremendous effort, which weakens the whole body. The result is the whole physical organization collapses and the patient sees the objects about him whirling rapidly before his eyes and, if he is not supported, falls to the ground, help- less. But he retains his consciousness, whereas if he were suffering from heart trouble, that would not remain. Vertigo, caused by indigestion, may be prevented by a proper diet, just as dyspep- sia is relieved by the same method. The stomach should never he ove oaded, as that alone will cause indigestion. Meat should be eaten sparingly and butter should be eschewed, for greasy substances always disturb the stomagh. Preserves, fruit, and pastries should not be touched. Only such food as can be distributed easily by the stomach should be eaten. This will depend largely on the patient, who should procure from his physician a list of the articles of food that he may eat with safety. sander Gh tan tear result in the resto- a a0 ttl pe ya vo oe to a healthy of vertigo ~~ ae <a prevent attacks ca ies ss pats a Pes it will subject ‘ 3 convenience, but it will accomplish its purpose in a few months. Once a cure is effected, the patient may eat any food that others eat without dele- terious effects. HOT WATER BAGS. By Dr. M. J. Baker. eee: well regulated homes should be supplied with hot water bot- tles for hot water applications in sprains, rheumatism, cold feet, headache, congestion, colic, inflammations, etc. If boiling water is used in the bags the heat will be retained for severa! hours. Hot water is of special value in torpid liver and constipation; ana will relieve flatulence and colic. When a hot water bag or any fomentation is removed dry flannel should be applied and the parts bathed in tepid water and rubbed until thoroughly dry.” A NOVEL DRINK CURE. SCOTCH doctor proposed flogging as A a cure for habitua! drunkards before the British Medico-Peycho ical Society at Edinburgh. For the “alcoholic crave’ he suggested as a remedy blistering and the application of plasters, and for “the plea of heredity’’ that the man should be flogged within an inch of his life DANGER IN MEAT DIET. éc ODERN MEDICIN®” contains a short paper on the above sub- ject, from which we extract the following: It is apparent that In the case of a person subsisting upon a flesh diet, two evils result: 1, An increased rapidity of disassim‘la- tion, whereby tissue wastnig oecurs at too rapid a rate. 2. A eaturation of the system with tissue poisons. When the urine contains three or four times the normal amount of urea, and other toxic poisons in like proportions, it is an indication that the @ ole body is, to a simli- lar extent, saturated with these poisonous substances. Another item of interest tn the table of Lotge is the fact that the alkaline sulphates, which are products of intestinal decomposi- tion, were entirely absent under a non- nitrogenous diet. Under a mixed diet the amount was found to be seven grammes, and under a nitrogenous diet, ten grammes. From these facts it must be apparent that nothing can be more dangerous in case of Bright's disease, and in all cases of renal insufficiency, than a flesh diet, and that the greatest safety for the patient Is to be found under a diet from which flesh food is excluded. It Is also easy to under- Stand why a flesh diet is particularly dan- gerous in diabetes. In this disease, in which there is naturally a tendency to waste, and to toxaemia through a fa‘lure of the kidneys to maintain a condition of requisite tissue purity, the employment of a meat diet not only increases wasting, but also greatly increases the tendency to gen- eral poisoning from the accumulation of ex- crementitious elements. PEANUTS VS. TOBACCO, Prrcan be with a slight mental tonic, can be made to cure the tobacco chewlng habit, according to a Chica- zo physician. He says: “Il prepared the patient's mind for the lightness of the task before him, laying special stress upon the fact that he will at no time consider him- self an object of compassion or self-pity, for if he believes himself to be performing « deed of no small heroism, he will suffer agonies, Whereas if his abnegation ts ig- nored and taken as a matter of course, he will react accordingly. “I prescribe peanuts to be eaten slowly, constantly and continually. The patient must be occupied; busy him, therefore, with peanuts. He would, If left alone, think tobacco; he must, on the contrary, think peanuts. Has he a loathing for peanuts? All the better.

The grasshopper was then quickly passed through the sharp lIittle teeth, the kicking legs being held with both hands, “When the insect was beyond further mischief the large eyes of the Tarster would open and the legs and wings were then bitten off, while the rest of the body was thoroughly masticated.

Louls for the last four months has been R. J. Hyatt, doctor of winds and weathers and chief forecast official of the United States Weath- er Bureau Station at St. Louls. Weather forecasters have been and going at St. Louis for many a year, but Dr. Hyatt stands out from the group. He has fairly burst upon the community. Six months ago the people of St. Louls had never heard of him. Now his name is 4 little pleasantry or unpleasantry which St. Louls men and women pass when they meet. Dr. Hyatt has a faculty of making himself felt. He had not been in the city three months before he had established be- tween himself and the people a bond of closest intimacy. He went into their homes. He made his presence a personal matter with every one of them. He rattled their windows and looked into their coalsheds. He made himself their unwelcome king of the north winds: their disagreeable giver of their baleful east winds and their merci- jess sponsor of the rude, wolfish west winds, and, just when they are in a humor to hat* him most, he turns to well-doing and bring? them soft south winds and makes himself much beloved. One might think Dr. Hyatt must be 4 many-sided man, with very lttle to do t* employ his time, playing with the people as he does, but it would be a mistake to think it, for the Weather Chief is the soul of all good things and ‘has a full share of this world’s work to do. He came heré from Vicksburg, and the people who have met him will agree that it is a pity thata man of his grace and goodness should have been relegated by his country to an abso- Jute isolation from the moving masses of the city. For the people who get up to the weather eagle's eyrie, in the topmost floo: of the Federal Building, where not even th: elevator goes, are few, and, except for the men who work with him, the doctor fs alon- with his work from 8 o'clock in the morn ing until early evening. It is a pleasure to call on him there—a mutual pleasure, for the doctor's specialty is weather, and peo- ple curlous about the weather need never hunger for news of it so long as Dr. Hyatt is there. He likes to talk about it. He knows about it. He has been a weather man a long time, and whena visitor comes in and says weather the doctor smiles, lays everything aside, rubs his palms with that caress so expressive of happiness, and asks in his quiet, kindly way: “What would you like to know? I'm trying to please every- body, but I know I interfere with some in- dividual tastes. Is it too cold for you, or too warm for you, or have you come in be- Ralf of a friend?’ This is the sort of,mman Dr. Hyatt is—a quiet, soulful, splendid gen- tleman of some §) and one or two years, heavy enough to give his predictions all mecessary weight, light-haired, blue-eyed and diffusing good cheer with his persona!l- ity, even when his official bulletins picture him a cold-blooded despot, hating and per- secuting all humankind. The skill with which Dr. Hyatt foretold cold waves and their intensity during the Winter just ended, together with the se- verity of the winter and the great value of the weather predictions and bureau warnings, has directed to the doctor and his work a popular interest which has noi attached to this work ip St. Louis in many years. It has created curiosity to better understand the weather work, the instru- ments, the sources of information and th*> duties of the men éngaged in it. “The ecience of weather is old,” Dr. Hyatt says. ‘“‘As long ago as the days of Methusaleh there were weather prophets and experts in metearology, and I expect some of those old fellows knew a good deal for those far-back times. I would Suppose, anyway, that if they lived a few hundred years apiece, as Methusaleh him- self did, they must have acquired a great deal of knowledge upon many subjects be- fore they died. At any rate it is an old Science. “The Weather Bureau has a circuit of Sub-stations through the United States and Canada. Some of the sub-stations— those at the larger cities like St. Louis and Chicago—are upon circult wire over which every station in the system sends every morning and every evening information which is necessary for the forecaster to have. These are sent to the central station at Washington, and the full service is taken of the cirecult at St. Louls, together with special messages from non-circult stations Near St. Louls. The observers who make the reports are Scattered through all the United States and Canada. They are up in the British Northwest far above the United States boundary; they are up in the Central North as far as Prince Albert, as far up as the head of the Great Bear Lake; they are Over at White River, at Halifax and Que- bec; at Bismarck, in North Dakota, at Bosjon, Cheyenne, Denyer, Duluth, El Paso, Atlanta, Galveston, Kansas City, TAttle Rock, San Francisco, New Orleans, Omaha, New York, Oklahoma City, Pitts- burg, Salt Lake City, Dubuque, Chatta- nooga and Vicksburg and many other Places, leaving not one place uncovered and likely to send forth a storm before the Weather Bureau had been apprised of it and its coming had been foretold all over the United States, “At each of these stations there ig an Observer. He makes his observations every morning and every evening, and they are made and wired In all at the same hour. To take an observation an observer docs these things: “He takes the barometer and temper- ature, the direction from which the wind blows, the state of the weather, the humid- ity of the air, the amount of rain or snow that has fallen, the velocity of the wind. the minimum of the temperature during the night and the maximum during the day, the stage of the river, if his «tation is on a river; the maximum velocity of the wind if it has exceeded & miles an hour. the kind of clouds over his station and the direction in which they are moving, any abnormal movement of the barometer. any frost and any thunderstorm.

E. presided over the meeting of the Loulsiana Conference held last week in New Orleans. In a apeech he referred to St. Louis and the changed conditions dur- ing the last 3% years. He sald: “The negro race, more than all others, should be temperate. No colored man should taste whisky or any other intoxicat- ing liquor or use it as a beverage. Look how God has blessed this race! There was a time when negroes were not allowed to hold conferences in New Orleans. Now we are here, this grand body of preachers, with the full privilege of free speech, and newspapers owned by white men are de- voting columns to these proceedings. “In St. Louls, in the early days of the church, there waa the old prejudice against the negro. Once when Bishop Calin and others ventured to hold a conference in St. Louls the fact was discovered and they were ordered to get across the river by 9 o'clock that night.

We heard that he was come to Damascus. Thither accordingly our caravan, laden with the rich stuffs, wound its way across the des- ert. On arriving at the beautiful city we found that Ali Bey had been turned back the way he came by news of a conspiracy in Al Cairo, and it was our duty to follow him, but we went slowly that his wrath might have time to cool, for it is not safe to meet @ lion when he is standing above his prey. But we were made welcome in the court of this Mameluke Arslan. [ had gone up to the roof of my house one afternoon and there took rest beneath an awning; but so fatigued was I that lI slept on until I heard the voice of the muezzin calling from a neighboring mosque, I sprang up and stood in the open Stretching myself, and as I did so I became confusedly aware of a damsel observing me through the apertures in her veil, where She stood, not many yards distant, but be- hind the parapet of a lofty house adjoin- ing ours. Now, it was not the time for be sleeping; neither ought I to have re- mained on the roof at such an hour, since it is then that the woman of the harem come forth to take the air and to hold their drawing room; nor does any one of the other sex venture to show himself then in that way. . However, all the women must have gone down, save only this maiden, whose eyes were fixed on me with an intense curios- ity. And I in turn gazed at her; whereupon, coming yet closer, with a sudden motion she put aside her veil, and I saw an East- ern face, beautiful enough to satisfy the descriptions in their luxurlant verse. The clear forehead, with dark lashes over large and still darker eyes, the eyebrows aimost joined, the complexion a warm brown tint, the teeth like shining coral, and the lips eloquent with some beseech- ing motion that made them tremble slight- ly. Her attire was magnificent—a tunic of embroidered satin, fringed with golden wire, and jeweled, slippers. In her hand she appeared to be hold- ing a kerchief, and while I continued in an attitude of deep surprise she rolled it up into a ball and flung it dexterously acrose. I stooped and took up the hand- kerchief, which was wrought of purple silk and seed pearls, and therein I found a tiny ecrap torn from the beginning of some poem, which had on it, written in Arabic, the word “To-morrow.” When I lifted my eyes a second time the damsel had van- ished. Now, I was not ignorant of the circum- stance that this house adjoining ours was the chief dwelling of a personage with whom to meddle would have been the ex- treme folly. It belonged to Ali Bey’s son- in-law, who was likewise the Grand Vizier the impetuous, daring and unscrupulous Abu Dahab. He had not returned from the camp at Al Cairo, but any day might be expected. This, I felt certain, was one of his wives or his slaves—most probably a slave, although she might even be some proud beauty of the harem. To-morrow came, and I hesitated whether I should ascend to the roof. Did not my duty as an Ambassador forbid me to sac- rifice the interest of Karim Zend, whose prosperity might hang upon this alliance? Neither was I the youth that could not draw batk when Zuleika beckoned. I must leave the Fair Unknown to the tender mer- cles of Abu Dahab. Yet the thought did not occur to me of quitting Al Cairo. That day passed without event. But hardly had the third morning dawned when I heard the voice of a black slave in the vestibule, demanding an audience of Harji Hussein Bey. It was not an unusual hour, and I admitted him, I was requested to hold an interview with the First Lady of Abu Dahab’s har- em, the Princess, the daughter of Ali Bey; and Masud was willing to lead me into the palace. “But,’’ I stammered, “surely it was not the First Lady whom?” and there I broke down. Masud smiled even so little. and answered: “The First Lady thou hast not seen, nor wilt see. That pearl of the morning in whose beams thou were illumined was an- other; and is on her account the Princess will have thee to come. No risk in obey- ing. If thou refuse—for more than one, death Ties in ambush.” Then little by little the story came out. The girl who had raised her veil and thrown the scrap of verse was called Ilisa- min, or Jasmin, and was a Christian slave. Abu Dahab had bought her six months be- fore In Alexandria and sent her to this house. Her music and singing were of the finest; she read admirably—and reading with intelligence is a much-prized accom- lishment among Easterne—while her ex- traordinary loveliness captivated the heart of the Vizier. But she would not look at him. 1 began to yield, as a man does to whom the caste of adventure is always pleasant. “it is known,”” sald the Nubian, “that though a venerable Hadji thou are by na- tion a Frank, and all Franks are physi- clans.

Behold me, then, disguised as a physi- Clan, passing in Masud’s company through all the doors and at length introduced into a hall, the floor of which was carpeted with velvet brocade, the walls hung with cloth of gold, and where censers of aloes and sweet-smelling woods filled the air. A high dome let in the light from above, and at the sides were long. narrow windows of stained glass. But across the center of the room a thick curtain divided the whole, and as I approached, Masud—ever standing by me with a drawn sword—whispered, “Make thy salaam.”’ I did so, whereupon an opening was made in the curtain and a pair of eyes glanced upon me, but they were not Ilsamin’s. After a space the lady began, “Art thou the Frank physician whom I sent for?’ “At thy pleasure, lady.” “Canst thou cure the mind as well the body with thy «lmples, O hakim?’’ “The mind? Not with stmples. Other Wwaye must be taken with the mind. “It is well. What other ways?’ “I should know the first, before I can prescribe.” “The disease,’’ she answered in a voice somewhat stifled in laughter, but recovering itself and becoming serious, “is called love by poets and story-tellers. And canst thou alleviate its troubles?’’ “Not without an hastening to add, ‘thou, disease.”* “T have none, Allah be praised;” ‘Tt is my slave.” with a strong emphasis on the word. ‘“‘My slave Ilsamin, that is afflicted.’’ ‘‘Tell me the symptoms of her trouble, if it pleases thee to daego, lady?” ‘Know, then, that this Ileamin is in- fatuated since her arrival in the Golden City. For she hath fallen in love with one, a Frank even as thou art; that is to say, not having the blue eyes, nor the corpse- like whiteness of visage, nor the red and scanty beard of thy countrymen, but’’—and here I could observe the eyes taking my measure—‘‘a dark-haired, dark-whiekered Faranji, whose color is between bronze and brown, his forehead somewhat sallow, his eyes like unto wells of water in the desert, and himself slender as a willow tree.”’ This I knew was part caricature and part compliment, but on hearing a rustle pehind the curtain it struck me that Jasmin was in attendance. I replied, “If such be the Frank, he is even as a son of the East. Let thy slave be given to him.” A sudden cry of joy interrupted me;rbut the Princess would herself be heard. “Peace, she gaid, “how can I make a present to this Frank of my lord’s servant? For ehe has found favor in the sight of Abu Dahab. This Christian hath dared to tell her owner that he must marry her; yea, and divorce his Wives, or she will not cast an eye upon him. Heardest thou ever such confidence in a bought slave?’ “A girls voice broke in with tears and protests. ‘“O, my lady! never did 1 dream of a treason so black. I desire only of Abu Dahab that he would eend to my father, the Maronite, and take ransom for me.” ‘“‘Thou art a fool, Jasmin,” said her mis- tress, ‘‘many another girl has risen from the selling-block to the royal seat. Truly, were I like the Sultana Zubeida, I had cut thee in four quarters and served up the banquet to Abu Dahab. Wilt thou have him divorce me, pretty one?’ ‘‘Nay,” saith she, and the pearls fell from her brimming eyes. 1 could hear the damsel sobbing; this mix- ture of comedy and tragedy overcame her, as well it might, for none can tell how suddenly the eastern sky will change from sunshine to scathing storm. “IT will take the maiden,”’ as disease lady, interview,”’ I replied; lady, hast no such she said. said I, ‘“‘and is the oldest He is 5&6 CROW LBY in St. Louis.

She seemed to be reflecting. “I know not,”” was her next observation. “Were it not better to ask of the physician somo white pow der that I could g’ve the damsel]? How shall she be taken secretly from the harem ?’’ I turned to Masud, “Speak now and tell thy device; # is the hour.” It was a very ingenious plan and the Princess gave a sort of acquiescence. She was clearly wavering between fear of what might happen if we failed and a true, though not deep, kind- ness toward Ilsamin. At last she ex- claimed, “In the name of God,” thereby s‘gnifying her consent, and in the same instant I saw one breadth of the curta'n roll on its golden hinges, and a young girl stepped forth alone. Yes, it proved the same gorgeous dress and the same sweet face which I tad scanned two days previously—again the veil was put back and Iisamin fell at my feet. : I ratsed her up. “‘My lord, my master,” she murmured, ‘“‘be good to me. Thou art the first—not friend,’’ she said hastily, with a tender glance toward Masud. “Ah, no, for this youth Is a true friend to me—but thou art my deliverer, and how long I have walted for thee! Often did I look through the lattices and consider thee in thy riding past.”’ “[ have many names, my “but let me hear thy story.” ‘*‘My story is soon told.

From my home I was stolen by Bedawin at nine years of age, carried to Smyrna, sold there, and yet once more carried over sold in the market at Kairouan—to a master, though a Moslem. “He taught me—how many things? Then he died—God be merciful to Mahmud Erf- fendi! And Again, I was in the market. Abu Dabab gave a heap of gold for this body which he coveted, but which I will fling into the live flame ere he shall toucn me. Then Masud took pity on my wretched- ness: Al Cairo, one who had made the pil- grimage to Mecca, but a Frank, who lived single and with a blameless reputation, un- like the Persians that we And it was thou, oh friend!’’ “Wait, Ilsamin,”’ days; it Is not long. over the first stage; rest.’’ But even then I was on the point of per- ishing. A sound of arms and music in the outer court announced some arrival. Jas- min fled behind the curtain with one ap- pealing book, and Masud dragged me hasti- ly along through a labyrinth of cross pas- from the barred windows in which I saw Ali Bey with a numerous staff at the gate of the palace. Surely I was doomed. house there are secrets known to the which the master would be long in discov- ering. When we had reached a storeroom, I found myself stepping on a square of car- pet that he plucked immédiately from un- der my feet. A second movement of the energetic Nu- bian was to pull up a piece of the flooring, which this carpet concealed, and I saw be- low me the dark waters of a canal. In an- other moment I was thanging to a rope which he let down cautiously some eight- een or twenty feet. The descent was not without pertl, but when I had effected it in safety my feet touched u narrow ledge of stones like the coping of an arch, and still with a hand on the rope, I guided my- self gradually out of this difficult place into a winding and deserted lane. No sooner had I reached it than, on looking back, I saw the cord drawn and the aperture closed, I reached home and set about my prepar- ations to carry out tne plan suggested by Masud. Until I heard Ilsamin tell her sad story I might perhaps have been uncertain of my course, but her innocence and deter- mination made my scruples appear almost unmanly, and I thought how Abdullah would have urged me on. Like myself, he detested slavery, and still more the horri- ble kidnapping of children. And t knev Ww something of the life child,”’ said I, sea, Loo | See, said I, “‘another three Masud shall see thee I will answer for the Sages, sut In a Cairene slaves whic n Isamin called dreadful, and of those palace- dens where, amid splendors inconceivable, the best of human feelings are corrupted and the roses turn to weeds. I longed to set Jasmin free. But on the day succeed- ing our interview the Nubian came to me with eyes of terror. Abu Dahab on his return from the camp had sent for Jasmin to entertain him. She sang and played, but would not dance be- fore her master; yet so charming did he find the girl, so deeply was the Vizier af- fected, as to offer to marry her, and even to dismiss the ladies of his harem. She refused ali his offers. The Mameluke Was stung by a gadfly; his senses left him; he swooned: and on coming back to himself changed his garments to blood red—a sign of awful note—and calling for one of his stewards, Mansur, a vile slave, delivered the poor young girl into his hands, telling him that she was henceforth his kitchen- maid. This Mansur had charge of a country house on the edge of the Nile, and he was to convey Jasmin thither on the night of this very day when Masud came to me. If nothing could be done, torments, and worse than torments, awaited the child. The time gave us about 14 hours. I had several of Karim’s most trusty followers, who would go into the fire had I bidden them: and, being looked upon by the Cal- renes as Shiahs or heretics, there was little fear of communication between the two par- I sent them with instructions toward ties. where the country house the old Al Calro, was situated. All day long Jasmin sat apart, voiceless, one mute expectation. The night drew on; we had planted our scouts, and with a small company I saliied out. We waited in a-thicket down by the bank, our horses picketed near enough to enable us to take refuge in flight or to carry away our prize immediately. Ilsamin had been warned by Masud, and she was to wear the red handkerchief she had thrown to me. At length we heard the plashing of oars and saw a boat coming up stream at a rapid rate, the decks. not overmanned. while two figures standing at stem and stern held aloft flaming cressets. As the boat grounded Mansur, whom I recognized by his arrogant shoulders and bloated face, leaped out, followed by two or three. half leading and half pushing a reluctant veiled woman, about whose wrist I saw the crimson kerchief. The next in- stant we had fallen upon them. The other men fled, yelling as if a troop of devils were their heels. Mansur alone would not leave his prey. Drawing sword, he parried the blow I was aiming at his headpiece; and being skillful enough, for a few moments he seemed like- ly to hold us at bay, when Jasmin, plucking out of my girdle the dagger which I carried there, struck it into Mansur’s heart. He gave a sort of frightful leap upward and fell dead to the ground. One of my men took the body, as it lay, in his arms and flung it into the Nile. Heavily weighted as it was with garments, it sank immediate- ly. And taking to our horses, with Ilsamin on the saddle, clinging to me, we fled all that nieht, until we were many miles from Masr al Atiga. For 10 days we camped among the ruins of the ancient Nile temples, keeping watch and ward. Then, as if returning from a shooting expedition, we went back publicly into Al Cairo, my men all about me, and Ilsamin riding as a young Mameluke boy among them On arriving at my palace I made inquiries, and was told that Abu Dahab had fallen under Ali’s displeasure, that he had fled by the desert, as it was thought, meaning t® stir up trouble in Syria. What was the occasion of his sudden downfall? The Cairenes had a thousand stories—all different, mostly incredible. Within a few days Ali Bey sent for me to come to the citadel. I put on a bold face and obeyed the summons. He was full of courtesies and announced his ac- quiescence in all that Karim Khan had proposed. Would I in return persuade my master to join the Egyptians in an assault the Turkish power? I promised, so far as in me lay, and was retiring, when Ali broke out into a furious invective against the traitor Abu Dahab. He thun le red agi inst at on a Slave whom he had raised from the dust, to whom he had given his daughter in marriage, and who having lost some vile Christian girl, had been shameless enough to charge the Prin- cess with conniving at her escape and was mad enough to send her back to the Pasha. Well for bim that he had put spurs to his horse the same hour. He would have had the eourbash laid to him until the breath was out of his body. In all this I wondered at our good for- tune, and I asked myself, Where was Masud? Ah! unhappy, I saw him, too, and how changed. He appeared in my palace a month later, so weak and crip- pled I started back at the sight of him. He had fallen under Abu Dahab’s sus- picion and had been frightfully tor- tured; but he kept his lips close, under- went a thousand deaths, and would have perished had not the great lady claimed him as her slave. Tender-hearted Masud —I suffered him to speak with Ilsamin once more. He said but little, and never came again. I Knew afterward that he died of a broken heart. My time in Egypt was drawing to a disastrous end. News came of my dear master’s death, and soon after sentence of perpetual banishment was pronounced against me and other of his friends by that foolish Rehoboam who succeeded him. I did not dare seek out Jasmin’s father while the war went on in Syria and Abu Dahab held Damascus. At Cairo was a prison out of which we might escape, but perhaps not later. I resolved on taking Jasmin to France and marrying her according to the Catholic rite. We embarked in a French vessel, were driven out of our course, pur- sued a long summer’s day by Turkish pirates, had to delay three months at La Valetta, and there were made man and wife.

The Army had an international Missing Friends Department, ¢t which all the Salvation Army officers and Salvation Army soldiers in the world are agente. Through it thous- ands of missing ones have been found and restored to their friends. Within the past six months 159 missing persons have been found through the New York bureau. Very often people are lo- cated in St. Louis by the local officers and soldiers. The ‘Missing Friends Department grew out of conditions which arose. Salvation Army officers working among the humblest classes in England, were often appealed to for assistance in locating relatives, gener- ally sons, who had gone to America or ig HE Salvation Army not only saves sin- ‘@omewhere else and not been heard from for a long time. In all cases the Salvation Army officera would write to officers at the place where the missing one was last heard from, and lost ones were frequently found in that way. Others wrote to the Wear Cry and the publication of names and descriptions often led to reunions. The demands finally became so great that & department was set apart in the War Cry for advertisements for missing friends and after that came the establishment of the Missing Friends Department. Now in every week's issue of the War Cry there are a column or more of adver- tisements for missing relatives. This is the atyle: WILIAAM J.

USSHL dredging has become an im- M portant industry in Missouri. This is particularly so in the vicinity of La Grange, in Lewis County, where there are extensive clam or mussel beds in the Missiasippi River. From the shells pear! buttons are made. Andrew Burtnett, who has long been en- gaged in the work of mussel dredging, says: "The manufacture of buttons from clam or mussel shelle was introduced in this country at Muscatine, lo., by a German named Boepple, who had learned the trade in Germany. Gea shelis were too expensive, 80 he experimented in making buttons from fresh water clams. The result was almost magical, and pearl buttons from Mississippi River clams soon became common. “But not only that. Last year W carloads of shells were shipped to Berlin, Amster- @am, Rotterdam, Paris and Vienna. "Shells abound from Lansing, Ia.. to La Grange, Mo.

The bed is always in deep water and in pro- tected places like the mouth of a Lay or slough. If the sediment from the water covers the bed every clam will die. “In these beds there are 0 varieties of clams, but only five of these can be used for the manufacture of buttons. The best variety Is called the “‘higger head.’ The ehelis are all of one shade of white and are easily sorted. .The next best variety is the ‘mucket,’ which is thick and opaque. In shape each resembles the salt water clam. From each shells can be made one dozen No. 16 line pearl buttons, worth 15 or BD cents. “The highest price paid for ‘nigger- heads’ by the hundred weight is 8 cents, in winter. The lowest is 3% cents. “Pearl buttons made from river clams are superior to other kinds, becauss they are eolid and have to be ground down to the thickness required. “The growth of the shell is very slow.

The receipts are never equal to the ex- penses. For the year ending March 31, 1898, the cost of investigations, apart from the work of the officers having the depart- ment in charge, was $578.25. The receipts were $288.38. The cost of the labor bureau, which has since been consodilated with the invesitgating bureau, was $1,117.98. The re ceipts were $148.78 The New York bureau is in direct charge of H. 8S. Hodges, a former business man, who became a soldier of the army and vol- unteered for this service. He has a corps of assistants. When information is wanted of a person who was last heard of in St. Louis all the available information is sent to the divi- sional headquarters, in the Burlington building here. An officer or soldier is as- signed to search, and every resource is re- sorted to. When the information is ob- tained it is sent to the New York bureau. The bureau is now working on an un- usually interesting case. A bright young boy of ten came to this country with his‘sister in 1847. After a while he ran away to New Orleans, was adopted by a wealthy French family, and afterwardae became a finished scholar and a handsome man, and very wealthy, a iaw- yer by profession. When the war broke out in the United States with the Confederate Army, he rose through distinguished service to the rank of Lieutenant-Colonel. Histwo brothers were in the Union Army—one lost his life there. Neither Knew that the other was there. He was wounded and given up to die by the Union eurgeon, to whom he gave the charge to find his favorite sister and hand to her his will. It has since been learned that the brave man recovered, spent come time in Europe, returned and accepted dip- lomatic service to some South American country, where it is most likely he now is. and where search is being made for him by the Salv ation Army. ’ wt ut MUSSEL DREDGING IN MISSOURI. wx wt around on sandy beaches and sloping mud banks, and In the spawning season—which is in May—it has the power to make itseif bouyant and float off with the curren’. In shape it looks like a long pocke'book; in color it is yellow on the outside and 10 different shades on the inside, whicn makes it difficult to sort the buttons. “The process of dredging or digging shells, as it is commonly called, requires quite an assortment of tools. The prin- cipal of these is the shoulder rake, re- sembling a garden rake, but being inucn larger. The handle is 18 feet long. The teeth are seven inches long, made of steel, 8-16 of an inch In diamefer, tapered at the ends. At the back of the rake, fastened to the straps, ie a woven Wire basket or a knitted one made of heavy trout iine. These baskets hold about a peck each “One man with his rake has dug as much as two tons of shelis in. a day, but it is the hardest kind of work on account of 01.6 having to dredge with the curren‘, that Is down stream, and have to keep the heavy rake moving up and down so as to throw the shells from the teeth into the basket. “The next hand device is the scissor rake, which resembles the oyster tongs. It is 10 feet long, and can not be used in very deep water. This rake is much more easily handled than the first on account of the leverage; the miore shallow the wa- ter the better for this rake.

Cowboy Charley says he is a natural poet and composer of music. The evangelist was brought up among the Sioux Indians. His father was a trader. He was one of the few whites who escaped the Sioux In the New Ulm massacre in Min- nesota In 1862. He was 3 years old then. For years. he led the wild life of the cow- boy 6n the plains. For wickedness he com- pared favorably with the best of them. He seems to have been a mark for the esix- shooters of other cowboys. He carries half a dozen bullets in his flesh to show that he has been through some exciting incidents. There is a white é6plotch between his eyes where a bullet, which fortunately was about spent, once flattened itself out. At the height of his wretched career his wife and children died, one after another. When he stood by the grave of his last child and heard the hollow rumble of the clods on the coffin, he determined to for- sake the ways of wickedness. From cowboy to evangelist was a long leap, but he made it, retaining just enough of the cowboy to be picturesque and in- teresting. He has been a wandering evan- gelist ever since. He has traveled over the Western States, exhorting sinners to re- pentance wherever he went. He has never lacked audiences, though they have not always been contributing au- diences. In city streets or village lanes people gather about him to hear his weird songs and listen to his earnest and so- norous oratory. His appearance is most wears his brown hair long. His face is re- markable. His features are those of a full blooded Sioux Indian. Any Sioux might be proud of his long, prominent nose, and his high cheek bones.

LOUIS. « ENRY KUTTER, in charge of the in- H let tower at the Chain of Rocks, whence St. Louis derives its water supply, lives in almost complete seclusion from the outer world, His vigil is as long and lonely of a lighthouse keeper on the Not a the rushing the great Mississippi beating against the tower's walls disturbs his solitude. His duty is to open or close the gates affording in regulating the vol- ume of water desired at the pumping sta- tion. After passing through the works It is transferred to the settling basins. The water is then ready for use, There are eight screens to the tower, each being slightly elevated over the other. They are 4x6 feet in measurement, The gates are operated from an upper part of the tower. Directly above is the keeper's apartment. He is seldom absent from it. Calls for more water or a diminution of the supply require him there constantly. His instructions are received from the superintendent, with whose office the tower is connected by telephone. The Inlet Tower is situated in the middle of the river at the far northern limits of the city. It was built five years ago when the waterworks were removed from the of Grand av. The architectural de- sign is simple. The structure ts of Iime- stone and granite. At the base it is about 40 feet in circumference, and is a perfect cone at the top. In height it is 76 feet. The interior is simply arranged. The submarine tunnel connecting with the filling conduits enters at the shaft. Seen from an altitude the shaft looks lke a huge well. John Sweeney held the position of tower- keeper for five years. He resigned re- cently because of ill health, caused by the unfavorable atmosphere of the tower. Mr. Kutter, who succeeded him, is 45 years cold and married. His wife and family live at 2 Pope avy. as that sea, waters of sound save an inlet to the river foot There is no accommodation for them in the tower. In fact, Mr. Kutter’s room is barely convenient for one person. It is reached by means of a ladder. The ascent is dangerous. If your muscle is not ej,ual to your nerve you are liable to tupple over into the Father of Waters. The river is not over 25 feet in depth at the tower when the stage of water is nor- mal. Allowing for a few drawbacks Keeper Kutter ia contented with his lot. He cooks St ein ae Ae te aire his own meals, and this is, perhaps, the simplest task of all, since Kutter was for a long while a chef on a steamboat plying be- tween ‘Memphis and St. Louis. The story of his daily life in the Inlet Tower is best told in his own words. He Says: “The place suits me exactly. I believe I was cut out for it, as my disposition tends to quietness and reserve. Then, again, 1 love the grand old Mississippi. It is the king of streams. Its majestic waters are before me throughout the day. They are my first vision at waking and the last before going to ‘bed. “I rise generally about 6 o'clock in the morning and retire at 9 in the evening. During that time I am only kept busy at intervals. The extremely cold weather, for instance, kept me on the go constantly. The river froze around the tower, and the ice blocked the screens. It was necessary to thaw it out, but just as rapidly as that wae done it would freeze again. Such cases, however, are unusual. By our gate system we know nearly to the gallon how much water empties into the tower from the river. The average is about 80,000,000 gal- lons a day. That, of course, represents the amount of water consumed by the people of St. Louls. During the cold spell when hydrants were left running to avoid frozen pipes, the volume was much greater. 1 recollect one day it was nearly 100,000,000 gallons. Estimates at the pumping station, however, are more accurate. The total capacity of the six engines there for 24 hours is about 135,000,000 gallons. ‘Though my task is not always light I invariably find it pleasant. I while away my leisure moments smoking and reading. My corncob pipe and Shakspeare are my staunch companions. It is comfortable in here when the weather is below zero. The walls are two and one-half feet in thick- ness, and the stove warms the room con- siderably. It also serves another salutary purpose. I refer tocooking. I think no more of makingbiscuits or bread than the oprin- ary Man does of writing his name.This is one of my chief enjoyments. Though I don’t claim to be a utilitarian, I can cook any- thing from a beefsteak to a turkey. I lay in a stock of provisions every week. This is really one of my chief enjoyments. “I go to land every two or three weeks, when I visit Mrs. Kutter and the little ones. “I am seldom lonesome.

This device will work only in summer months or when the water is warm. Then the shelig are partly open, s0 the hooks will enter the ciam. As soon as the wire touches the meat the clam shuts down on the wire and willl not let go.

D., March 11. By Telegraph to the Sunday Post-Dispatch. HB object of Senate bill No. li, re- t quiring a physician’s examination before a license to marry is granted, is to prevent persons afflicted with dipso- mania, insanity, hereditary tuberculosis or consumption and other diseases from mar- ryving. The dill passed the Senate almost unani- mously last Monday after consideration by the Judiciary Committee, and I think it will ‘be universally approved by the people of the State. The records of our State Insane Asy- lum strongly show the necessity for this law. H. M. CREEL, State Senaicor. Senator Creel, the author of the Marriage bill, is a graduate of West Po'nt, was an officer of the United States regular cav- alry and resigned to enter the profession of the law.

INGERSOLL, who is in St. Louis to-day, says of the Creel law: “So some people imagine that science will do away with sentiment. In my judg- ment science will not only increase senti- ment, but sense. ‘SA person will be attracted to another for a thousand reasons. The handsomest girl in Zululand might not be attractive to Her- bert Spencer, and the fairest g:rl in Eng- land might not be able to quicken the pulse of a Choctaw brave. Men are influenced according to their capacity, their tempera- ment, their knowledge. ‘Some men fall in love with a small waist, an arched instep or curly hair, w-th- out the slightest regard to mind or muscle. This we call sentiment. ‘Sentiment can never be destroyed, and love will forever rule the human race. “Do I think that the marriage of the sickly and diseased ought to be prevented by law? ‘“T have not much gconfidence in law—-n law that I know cannot be carried out. The poor, the sickly, the diseased, as long as they are ignorant, will marry and help fill the world with wretchedness and want. ‘‘Bven if I should go to heaven and have a harp I could not bear to see my descend- ants still on the earth, diseased, deformed, crazed—all suffering the penalties of my ‘g- norance. Let us have more science and more sentiment—more knowledge and more conscience—more liberty and more love.”’ BY REV. W. W. BOYD, ST. LOUIS.

The man A who 3% years ago startled the police of both continents by h‘s daring and sk‘llful swindle on the Bank of England, by which that institution was defrauded in the first instance of $1,000,000, and who, when captured, was enabled to Withstand the effects of 18 years’ penal servitude, suc- cumbed to the grip at Butte, Mont., Tues- day night. To one man in Ch'eago the passing of Bidwell recalls memories which are con- nected’ with his active police work. This morring William A. Pinkerton of Pinker- ton’s National Detective Agency related the salient points in Bidwell’s life prior to h's conviction on the charge of swindling “the old lady of Threadneedle st..” as the Bank of England is commonly called. Mr. Pinkerton made the arrest. During the beginning of the civil war in this country and while but a schoolboy, Mr. Pinkerton remembers how he used to del'ght In purchasing “home-made” candy from George and Austin Bidwell, who ov- cupled the store at Madison and Dearborn sts. .n which Lipman’s pawnshop now is. Afterward they engaged in the commis- sion business and failed. Going Bast they engaged in what is known to the police as “business sw:ndling,”’ or a bogus commis- Sion trade. They ultimately joined the gang of forgers then operating under the direct’on of George Ingles, alias “Dutch George,” George Wilkes and Phil Hargraves, and became known as the presenters of forged paper. While thus engaged the brothers made one or two trips to Europe, and there passed several worthless drafts. The ease with which this was accomplished resulted in the formulation of a scheme wh'ch but for the failure to properly date a bill of exchange would have almost wrecked the Bank of lngland. In 1872 William Pinkerton was called to England regarding the robbery of the Third Nationa! Bunk of Baltimcre, Md., and was greatiy suprised, when tracing his sus- pects, to meet the Bidwell brothers. He in- formed the English police of the character of the men and that they would bear watch- ing. but the members of Scotland Yard ridiculed the idea that an Amer‘can crook could fool them. Within a few weeks they had succeeded in obtaining $1,000,000 of English money. In company with Edwin Noyes Hills and George MacDonald, then known as Capt. George E. Mathews, and operating under the name of Horton, Austin Bidwell suc- ceeded in obtaining the confidence of the bank officials by representing he was en-' gaged in the manufacture of sleeping cars, with a factory at Birmingham. He se- cured the introduction through a_ ruse. The swindlers had been living in the most expensive manner and patronized a tailor named Green, who had a store adjoining the bank. One day Bidwell asked the tailor to keep $50,000 for him, and when asked why he did not place it in the bank said he could not, as he did not have an ac- count. Green at once vouched for him, and the first step in the contemplated swindle was taken. For a time they presented authentic bills of exchange which they had purchased, and their rule ‘was invariably to present a small draft before attempting to realize on the large one. They were detected, owing to the fact that in forging a draft for 2700 pounds they neglected to fill in the day of the month. The bank sent the draft to the man sup- posed ‘to have drawn it to have this filled in, and at once learned they had been swindled. Mr. Pinkerton had while in England left the picture of the Bidwells with Inspector Shore, and they were at once identified by the bank Officers. dream. In time it will become a practiced and practical realization.’ Chagrined over the failure to take Mr. Pinkerton's advice in the matter, the Eng- lish police now employed the agency of which he was a principal. The task of locating Bidwell was intrusted to Mr. Pinkerton. ‘ Learning the route taken by the fugitive was from San Tandare, in Spain. to Vera Cruz, Mr. Pinkerton made an overland yoy- age, and, reaching Havana on a cattle ship, entered the harbor at the identical moment that Bidwell’s ship cast anchor. The Chi- cago man at once placed Bidwell under ar- rest. On the night of Holy Thursday Bid- well escaped, but was captured two days later 16 miles away. While awaiting ex- tradition, or rather the fore!ng of che Span- ish Government to give up his prisoner, Mr. Pinkerton secured letters directed to Bidwell at Havana. One was from his brother, George, in Aberdeen, Scotland, and resulted in his arrest, the other con- tained a cipher which showed that In a trunk in Morris’ express office in New York was $20,000 worth of $1000 United States Government bonds, purchased with the pro- ceeds of the swindle.

George Bidwell served 18 years in prison and was pardoned. He then wrote a book entitled ‘Forging His Chains,” and with the proceeds of its sale secured the libera- tion of Austin one year later. Among the romantic features of Bidwell's life is that, while in England, he married the daughter of an English officer, who, owing to her father’s death was compelled to work as a governess. - He settled $20,000 on her, and she, when it became known what her husband really was, returned this sum to the bank.

The anchor man, who sits up- right, is protected by a heavy iron and leather belt; the rope runs in the grooves of the belt around his torso; the rope is in line with his legs, and when seated it takes ae? : sf il at iC a . ge UG-OF-WAR a good horse's pull to dislodge him. It 1s an old trick of the “strong man’ tv have two of the heaviest horse teams ihat can be found, try to pull him from a ladder, to the rungs of which he holds, without straps, with hands and feet only—he is careful, however, that the ladder and his body are on line with the rope attached to the horse on one end and to a harness around his body on the other. It is a fact that many a farmer in Europe has lost his best team of horses on a wager of this kind. It will be seen from a mechanical point, and one need not necessarily be an athiete, that the strain is not equal to that of lifting. In order to gain rope, at a given signal of the captain, seen or heard by his men only, the men, except the anchorman, slide quickly forward on the rope two or three inches, taking a firm hold to allow the “anchor” to slide forward and take uP rope also. The team is now ready for the word “heave” from the captain, who must wait for the opportune time to make it an effective pull. To catch the opposing INJUKIQUS team napping when changing position catch the anchor while trying to take vp ‘slack’ and to have the team work if unison, is the science of the game.

Singapore is quite a good sized city and decidedly the best from which to conduct their expedition. The exploring party proceeded by boat from Singapore to Pontianak, the chie. town on tthe west coast of Borneo, and fror here the start was made inland. At this point Mr. Harrison hired a native chief and 2% men to pilot them through the coun* try, as most of the distance would be made by water. A cook was also.taken. Mos* of their belongings had been left at Sing- apore, only such articles being taken as were absolutely necessary, These, it may be said, consisted principally of two pairs of short, loose trousers, the only clothing they wore, cameras, with materials for de veloping, rugs, and a small supply of pro- visions, chiefly meat, crackers, rice and fish. the Kapusas River, the route of the party, is the largest river on the island, It is nav- igable by small steamers for more than 100 miles, and by canoes its whole length, which is over 500 miles. Canoes were se- cured, their goods loaded and the party, 2 in number, proceeded eastward the tide is made an Rowing and poling against not easy work, but the party average of about 14 miles a day. They traveled, of course, only during the day, sleeping on the banks at night. The natives would build a hut, making a bed of leaves covered with a rug. Mr. Harrison was asked how he felt trusting himself in such a wild country, with a lot of natives little more than savages. He sa‘d there was little trust to be put in anything in the interior of a country like Borneo, and added incidentally that the men stole the greater part of their. provisions before they had gotten fairly started. Not only were the men faithless, but the chief was not to be trusted when a good opportunity for theft presented itself, and had to be treated almost like a child. The native of Borneo is suspicion itself, and is most difficult to deal with because he takes offense at what in civilized countries is deemed the great- est favor. As both Mr. Harrison and Dr. Hiller speak Malay, they were enabled to carry on an intelligent conversation with the ehief and a few of his men. For miles up the Kapuas River the chiefs understand this language. The native traders at Pon- tianak and other seaport towns have for years taken short trips into the intersor, and it is from these trips that the chiefs gained their knowledge of the language. Thas when the party met a tribe they could make known the object of their visit by speaking Malay. M.D are —$—$—$ ———— CAMP COLUMBIA, near Havana, Cuba, March 1.

The body is removed from the coffin, placed in the grave, and covered with lime and a.few ehovelfulls of -earth. The coffin is taken back to its owner and the next day another body may be placed in the same grave until the hole is full. It is then rounded up and ieft for four years. At the end of that time the bones are dug up and thrown into the bone heap, which is to be found in every cemetery In Cristoboro Colon Cemetery in Havana there are four of these bone heaps, in each of which are thousands of skulls and other bones lying in the moet careless confusion imaginable. The climate here is most delightful at this time of the year. Rains are few and the heat not oppressive. The American soldiers are wearing blue shirts and light Khaki trousers, blouses being used only on state occasions. The average heat dur- ing the day is 75 deg. At night it becomes cooler and the soldiers find a blanket de- cidedly comfortable. The advice so freely given us before we left St. Louis to “eat no fruit’ is unheeded. The fruit here the most delightful in the world and it is so plentiful that the street vendors sell oranges four for 5c (Spanish) and pineapples at Sc euch. Oranges are so plentiful here that any farmer will give you all you care to take if you will but keep off his to- baceo.

It is wild enough during the day, when the scenery stands out in all ite splendor, when there are duties to perform, and the character- istics of the country impress one so strong- ly, but all these are eliminated by the set- ting of the sun. The rushing of waters, the voices of savages, the cries of birds and animals, the constant pestering of in- sécits, and last but not least, the chances that you may never again see the light of day, are about as terrible as ever a white man experienced.

If the men are permitted to have transportation for all the shells and coral formations that they have gathered on this shore, every house in the State of Missouri will have a choice collec- tion. Some of the men have made progress in the language. It is easy to learn, and study, combined with association with the people, will give one a fair knowledge in two months. An amusing incident apro- pos of this Is told of one of the Sergeants of Company M. “Ahora, muchachos,’’ he said to a ragged Cuban boy with a bundle of papers under his arm. “Como se llama esta calle?” (Say, boy, what is the name of this street?) “‘Aw: talk New Nited States,” said the supposed Cuban boy, “I ain't no muchacho; I cum from de Bowery in New Yoik.”” The mistake was excusable, for an American exposed to the sun's rays here soon gets as brown as a born Cuban. The people here take kindly to the Amer- ican soldier, as the Sixth Missourians can testify from experience. In and around Havana some of the enlisted men of the extra corps have been indiscreet enough to over-imbfbe of the liquid fire sold. here at two drinks for 5 cents under the name of ““Aguarde ente.”’ Their after conduct caused the natives to be somewhat shy of them, In the country, however, it is very dif- ferent. The Sixth has just returned from a practice march of 80 miles into the in- terior. At San Antonio de las Banos, @ town of 800 people, the entire population turned out to greet us and at night a pa- rade in honor of the soldiers was given. A ball was given to the officers and they had a jolly time trying to talk to the senoritas. who were very beautiful girls. One of the most beautiful of ail was Senor- ita Clementina Gespert, sister of the Cuban General of that name. She was the only one of the lot who could “‘danzon las mismo Americanos.” She waltzed like a fairy. The others danced only mgadones, a kind of two-step wiggle, the national dance, which they keep up at short intervals all night long. The negroes have the same dance, but use a tom-tom and a philharmonic for music. The effect on the imagination is very much Rider Haggard. Masked balls, by-the-way, are very much in the fashion hére: they have them every Saturday night. The Cubans are very proud of any . sh words which they may een up and it & very amusing to hear them put them to use at the wrong time. It is common to be toid “Goo’ bye’ when you .

Every house has its collection of fleas, which do not bite the Cubans, but which are most profuse in their attentions to the Americans. They are positively immunized against all of the persuaders”’ which are in use in the States. The race question has been amicably set- tled here, for the Cuban negro stands just as well socially as his white brother, and a negto officer, over white Cuban sol- diers, is a common sight. The middle and poorer classes of whites and blacks live together, three or four families in one house, in the greatest felicity. _This is a country of great possibilities. Everything is crude here and the island is expectantly waiting for the hustling Yankee to get here and give them good railroads, street cars, sewers, bakeries, groceries, dry poese stores and meat shops. The country s wonderfully fertilé and shows evidences of having at one time been under perfect cultivation. Now it ts a waste. What are most needed are, first: ‘Men with some money, second, push and energy, and third, American faiming implements. With these things the country can be made to blossom as arose. Two crops of tobacco per annum can be raised and fine fruit for export can be raised all the year round. Vegetables will grow the year round and with Florida's coast but a short distance away shipping eould be made to pay. Railroad bu!lding here shoujd be a money making venture, and the man or men who will put decent street railways in the city of Havana will make a fortune. It is my belief that al- most any line of business will succeed here, and notably a good medium priced hotel real American style, not the sham as foun here, would be a wonderful money maker. The great difficulty in the way probably is the doubtful character of the deeds to real estate. This difficulty is not insuperable, however. The general feeling here among the vol- unteers seems to be that they will not be retained in the service much longer, and the belief is that May 1 will see them all at home again. Not all of the men, how- ever, want to 5° home, as they feel that the a here if lengthened out would give them further opportunities to learn the language and customs and possibly open up to them fields where they could make money. None of the Americans here eeem in the jeist afraid of disease. Neither yellow fever nor smaiipox have the terrors here that they have In the States, for they are both resultant upon uncleanliness and the American soldier here is essentially clean. He must be, perforce, and the good habits he has formed in the army will never leave him. At present there is absolutely no sickness in the Sixth Missouri, and the principal occupation of the doetors ofthe regiments and hospitals is dressing wounds, setting broken bones, curing indigestion and reducing “headaches.

UCH more depends on the success of the second week of the engage- ment of Olga Nethersole in St. Louis than the mere matter of the profit that the Olympic Theater and Miss Nether- sole and her associates may make on the week. If it is a good week from the box- office standpoint it will materially heighten the standard of attractions at the Olympic and Century next season. The two wecks’ run is purely experimental in St. Louis, but the management of the two high price theaters confesses frankly that unless en- e4gements can be profitably lengthened to at least two weeks, St. Louis theater-goers must be content to accept an attraction of little merit occasionally. Attractions that are presented in St. Louls for one week run from three to five in Chicago and much longer in Boston. And in cities of one- tenth the size of St. Louis they draw well 7 il ' NW, -— Wr ‘ Ny ‘sites 3M ' | ARUN he SA SSEI IG ; 7 Fe hi, Mere Si erm \ / " \ ‘ i\\ 4 \ a ) O NS, ). E. L. DUANE, Stage Manager Grand Opera House. for three nights and a matinee. The theater-going contingent in St. Louis is numerically as large in proportion to the population probably as that of any other city, but it does not appear to have been educated up to the point of going to see a traveling organization more than once during a season, even though there be a change of bill—that is, the managers fear that it hasn’t, and that is what they are trying to find out. The successful engagement of the French Opera Company at Music Hall indicates that the St. Louis public is quite ready to give a high-class attraction a satisfactory patronage for two weeks or more. M. Charley's organization came here practical- ly unknown. It began its season under dis- couraging auspices, but the people recogr- nized its merit and M. Charley has no reason to regret his St. Louis venture. The indications are that Miss Nether- sole, who has been carefully and astutely managed, will do a business during her second week that will justify her in com- ing back next season for, not only a two, but a three weeks’ run. Play-goers are quick to recognize what pleases them and they will soon realize that it is better to see a company of extraordinary merit three times in three plays than it is to see three mediocre organizations in the same length of time. There has been a good deal of discussion in theater circles as to whether the Grand Opera House made or lost money on the recent handsome and expensive production of “An Enemy to the King.’’ The writer has it from the highest authority that there was no loss, but practically no direct pe- cuntlary profit: Manager Giffen holds, how- ever, that the production was worth the sacrifice of a week's dividends as an ad- vertisement of the character of entertain- ment the house is offering at low prices. Besides he is thinking of taking the stock company “on the road” as soon as the regular season closes, with a big produc- tion of “An Enemy to the Kine.” If he does this the massive furniture and the heavy draperies and other properties he had made will soon pay for themselves. The colored performer has come to be an important factor in vaudeville. There are hundreds of negroes doing specialties in the best house of that class and they are réported to be invariably well behaved, and always courteous to people with whom they come in contact behind the scenes. Their salaries are just as high as the white performers’, for the men who em- ploy talent never pay anybody more than they can avoid paying. Here are a few quotations on colored artists, which are probably not more exaggerated than the stated theatrical salary list usually is: Williams and Walker, #00 a week; Jones, Grant and Jones, $50; Erhest Hogan, $200; Belle Davis, $200, and Johnson and Dean, $200. New York writers on things professional are having fun in a quiet way with Odette Tyler, who is soon to begin an engagement at the Herald Square Theater. The provocation seems to be that Miss Tyler has availed herself of the feminine peroga- tive of changing her mind and has demon- strated the truth of the aphorism, “Once an actor, @lways an actor.” When Miss Tyler went to London about 18 months ago to Mr. Gillette make a, success of *@eoret Service’ she lét it be known that she went only because she liked Mr. Gillette and didn’t want the play to start off wrong in a strange land. She remained in England two weeks, then, having given Mr. Gillette's play a push in the right di- rection, @he returned to New York, and said, so all the world might hear, that she was done with the moiling and toiling of stage life; she had taken a husband who had vast ancestral estates in old Vir- ginia and she was going to retire to them and never again get within smelling dis- tance of grease paint, in hearing distance of a scene shifter, or touching distance of a stage brace; she would become a Lady Bountiful, raise duoks and chickens and revel in the delights of a pastoral Nfe; many managers were eager to star her and authors pestered her with plays, but she suld have none of it; she longed for the ‘ ~.

Now that Miss Tyler is going to invade New York as one of a three-star combina- tion of which the other members are her husband—stage name R. D. McLean—and Charles B. Hanford, the New York writers hereinbefore referrd to, are wandering what made her change her mind, and otherwise showing their ignorance of the cardinal truth—“once an actor, always an actor.” They are also speculating as to who is bossing the ancestral estates in Old Virginia. Sarah Bernhardt has not only determined to produce a French version of “‘Hamlet”’ with herself in the title role, but she is also creditéd with the intention of taking a try at Romeo, in case her Hamlet is well received. It is also said that she is about ready to reconsider a patriotic de- cision she made long ago never to appear before a German audience. George Alexander, who is now appear- ing nightly in London in two plays of Mrs. Craigie’s—a tragic curtain-raiser, “‘A Re- pentance,” and a society comedy, ‘‘The Ambassador”—has recently accepted a third work from her pen. It Is a poetical tragedy in three acts, entitled “Osborne and Ursyne,” the scene being laid in Eng- land during the eleventh century. MPs. Craigie was received into the Catholic Church not long ago, and all her recent work is said to be impregnated with fresh religious feeling. The new play, by Henry ‘Arthur Jones, which is soon to be produced by Beer- bohm Tree, deals with military life in In- dia. Tree and Waller will both impersonate army officers, and a part characterized as “very passionate’ is announced for Mrs. Potter. Miss Nethersole presents ‘Camille’ as a costume play, that is, the characters in her production wear clothes fashioned after the style of the period in wheih the piece was first presented. Her- warrant for this innovation is not apparent unless it be that all plays should be produced exactly as they were first produced. Car- rying out this theory, Miss Nethersole should have appeared in ‘‘The Second Mrs. Tanqueray" wearing an enormous’ bustle and her dress cut and trimmed to make the shoulders appear phenomenally narrow and the hips abnormally broad. “Camille” is as essentially a play of the present as “‘The Second Mrs. Tanqueray.”’ However, the public appears to like tume plays and Miss Nethersole is to be commended for her effort to give the public what it wants so long as there is no more harm in it than crinoline and hoop skirts. REMARKS OF MARCUS MAYER. plan which he M ARCUS MAYER, ' thinks will give the American pub- manager, has a lic an opportunity to hear grand opera Satisfactorily sung and at the same time increase the fat bank account he has built up since the days when he was Mr. Ab- bey’s trusted employe. “I intend,” said Mr. Mayer, ‘‘to organize an opera company on ‘the lines of the old Kellogg Company which made money as long as the standard was kept up. I will have no world-famous stars, but I will have as good singers as there are in the world. They will be care- fully selected from the great number of artists who have eminent talents but are not widely known. I shall pay close at- tention to making the ensemble of the company strong. No organization in Amer- ica will be superior to it in this respect. It is not my purpose to rush into the big cities with this company. There are in the United States more than 200 cities of over 60,000 inhabitants. The people of these cities know good music and appreciate it, and are willing to pay for it. I shall arrange a tour s0 as to visit such com- munities and leave the larger fields where competition is flercer, to anyone who wants to occupy them."

All the world knows what a success it was, and still is. “The company made a hit,’ said Mr. Mayer, ‘“‘because the plece was better and brighter than any BEmglish creation of the kind; because the comedians were cleverer; because the girls were prettier and be- cause they attended to business and did not seem to know who was in the boxes. This last feature pleased the Prince of Wales greatly. I have had the pleasure of meeting His Royal Highness several times. He said to me: ‘I was struck by the mod- est demeanor and painstaking work of your chorus almost as much as I was by the talent of the principals. Not one mem- ber of the company appearéd to know that the royal box was occupled.’ ‘Edna May, who played the Salvation IN Army girl, met the Prince under circum- stances that enabled her to make a favor- able impression on him without any partic- ular purpos« her part to do so. Edna had not hed a great deal of experience ip exalted social circles and when she was in- vited to appear at a reception she went purely on business principles with little thought as to whom she would meet. After she had sung she was introduced to various celebrities, the Prince among them. She did not catch the title and didn’t know who he was and treated him just as she would other gentleman; talked about her- and gave her impression of London, and called him, ‘Say,’ and ‘Mr. Umphum’ in her own artless way. She struck the Prince just right, and he not only went to the play again, but sent his family. The Prince is a fine fellow and he likes to be treated though he were an un- titled gentleman.” on any self Seed as ft OFFERINGS FOR THE WEEK.

Wednesday evening and Wednesday after- noon, and “Camille” will be the bill the remainder of the week. In the title roles of these plays Miss Nethersole demon- strates clearly her marvelous and admir- able versatility. The characters of the women who are the central figures in these plays differ as widely as it is possible for : St eMe —_~ _> af >>, two passionate women to differ. Yet Miss Nethersole appears equally at home as the Gypsy or the Parisian. One striking and novel feature of the “Camille” production is the costuming of the characters in the style that prevailed at the time Dumas wrote the play. The costumes of the second Empire were rich and showy, and the Nethersole pro- duction has been generally commended for its beauty as a picture. It is promised that scenery and all other atcessories of both Plays will be on an elaborate scale. Jefferson De Angelis will begin his en- gagement at the Century Theater this evening in the new opera, “The Jolly Musketeer,”’ built for him by Julian Ed- wards and Stanislaus Stange. The argu- ment of the opera seems to be based on the romance from which several Musketeer plays have been evolved. The main thread of the story twines about the love of a doughty young cavalier, a lieutenant in the King’s.Own Musketeers. The action takes place at Amiens during the siege of that place by the Spaniards in 1634. The opera is said to abound in funny situa- tions, and it ig claimed that the dialogue is bright and the music bright and “catchy.” Mr. De Angelis is well known as a sing- ing comedian. He is popular in St. Louis, where he has appeared several times with Della Fox and Lillian Russell, and in other companies,:.Among the artists supporting him this season are Maud Hollins, Bertha Waltzinger, Van Rensselaer Wheeler, Hel- ena Frederick and Winfield Blake.

The characters in it are all said to be drawn from real life. The pic- turesque character of David Holmes (Mr. Russell's part) will be impersonated by Mr. John B. Maher. Mr. George Denham, who goes back to Mr. Joe Jefferson at the end of this week, will play his farewell role as Martin Berges, David's secretary and con- fidential man. Mr. Denham’'s departure is generally regretted, for he has become quite a favorite here with Grand Opera House patrons, and they will turn out en masse to do him honor before he leaves. Archibald Lytton Savage, the modern lit- erdry man, will be enacted by Hobart Bos- and Sylvia, David's ward, one of the most charming characters ever pore- trayed, is in the hands of dainty Grayce Scott. Miss Seligman has the role of Helen le Grand, David's sister, and Miss Helen Reitmier will play another of her delightful “scolds.”” “A Bachelor's Romance” is a play in four acts, all of which will be pictured in George Heinman’s best style. Regular matinees will be given to-day and Saturday, with a bargain matinee Wednes- day. pass- worth, The bill of vaudeville announced at the Columbia for the week includes the Miller family of bicyclists, five in number, who do a number of remarkable things on bi- cycles, unicycles and some wheeled rid- ing machines of their own invention; Fran- celi and Lewis, operatic vocalists, in a 4 nt was v air feats on the swinging wire: Adair brothers, in a gymnastic and balancing act on the high perch; Bryant and Saville, the “monarchs of musical comedy,” who are old favorites here; Gracey Emmet, the mer- ry comedienne, remembered as the star of various farce comedy organizations, in a singing monologue specialty, which she is pleased to call ‘“‘A talk With the Ladies;” Edward Boyle, parodies and witty patter, and the Three Rexos, Russian scientific and gymnastic skating experts.

Several scenes of the play are striking. One of these showing the passage of a ferry boat from Jersey City to New York, is said to be absolutely perfect in detail. The passage is made at night. When the boat leaves the slip in Jersey City the huge black outlines of the build- ings on the opposite shore and their thou- sands of dimly-glowing lights can barely be seen. As the boat pushes out into the stream and comes closer to the landing the outlines of the buildings assume more and more definite shape and the lights of the city grow brighter and larger; then the clanking of the iron gates and the lock- wheel announce the arrival.

Much praise is given Mr. Epstein, the director, for his efforts in behalf of his orchestra, and the results shown in the rendition of the works of Beethoven, Mozart, Haydn and the more modern com- posers, Saint-Saens, Grieg, Goldmark and others prove the earnestness of the con- ductor and orchestra. What was six years ago an experiment is now a success, and it is a pleasure to listen to the concerts by this organization. Nor do the man- agers always go away from St. Louis to secure their soloists. Their desire is to present the best obtainable, and they chose solely on merit. At the coming concert they will be assisted by Miss Lulu Kunkel, violiniste; Mr. W. H. Jones, tenor, and Mr. F. E. Craig, clarionet. Miss Kun- kel, who recently returned from Brussels, where she spent many years under the tuition of Ysaye and Marchot, the famous instructors, and where she captured the first prize, is one of the foremost female violinists in this country. She is a St. Louis girl, having commenced her musical education in this city at the age of 6 years.

OW that epring has been heralded by all the enterprising hat shops in the city, and the mid-winter amuse- ments in society are beginning to decline, fashionable folk are turning their atten- tion from dancing to dressmaking, from tea drinking to hat trimming and from the skating rink to the riding school. As to gowns—centainly the Junoesque women rwill have things all their own way this epring, for the freshest fashions in costumes for walking, golf, rainy days, evening affairs—in fact, all the newest frocks are made with tight-sleeved, closely- fitting waists and clinging, swishing skirts that fit smoothly, without pleat or fold, about the hips, and after following the lines of the figure almost to the knees, bell gracefully outward and fall in full soft ripples the rest of the length. Dvery new gown has a small demi-train or “sweep,”’ even the skirts of walking cos- tumes being made to drag slightly in the back. Solid colors—slate gray, ashes of roses gray, sage green, Hussar blue and dark red—are being shown by fashionable women's tailors, in preference to the rather pronounced stripes and plaids of last season. In place of the usual light-colored spring jackets, the New York and London shops are offering long, double-breasted ulsters in various shades of tan and gray, for cool days. These coats are made of lightly-lined serge, tweed or broad cloth and are fin- ished with enormous pearl buttons and short, mannish littie collars. They are ex- ceedingly becoming and are especially ap- propriate for driving. And yoy | of driving reminds me that I have been hearing a great deal lately about the fine folk .who are preparing to blossom forth as finished equestrains, as soon as the weather permits of continued horseback riding. There are some good dirt and gravel roads in and about the | e¢ity, and soon these will be thronged with '\ fashionable horsemen and women from all paris of town. The Boston Riding School, on Thirty-sec- ond and Olive éts., has been doing a rattling fine business all winter, but now there are big classes at every hour for men, women and children. ‘Mrs. Andrew Warren thas again taken up this sport at which she was formerly so expert, and is counted by the riding maeter as one of the best equestriennes in the city. ‘Mrs. hd Paramore has also become an accomplished rider and at present is learn- ing how to lift her sorrel saddiler to a paar root Eee. : —. . e seeg Le ne, Dr. EF, & Lemoine’s “two havdsome OR era. are giving an Pa hour each morning to acquiring the art of riding park-gait animals, and (Miss Ethel Alien has already become skilled in manag- ing a high-school horse. 0 South Side society girls who are en- thusiastic over their new-found amueement, are Miss Adele Dittman and Miss Fannie Orthwein, both of whom are regular visi- tors at the ‘Riding School. The three Misses Anderson of Lindell bl. are also preparing for fine weather by tak- ing a course in riding, as are also Mrs. H. . Spencer and M'‘ss Anna Spencer. Mrs. Guido Pantaleoni has become a fine equestrienne during the winter, and there _ Is not in the entire city a woman who looks ter in a saddle than ehe.

Among the men who go frequently to the echool for practice in high-jumping and tr'ck riding are Tudor Wilkinson, Jack Gerahty, Hermann (vyties, Billy Wright and Guido Pantaleoni. All of these men re experts, and owners of some of the nest saddiers in the city. The instructors and owners of the riding echool are Capt. Fdaward S. Jones and Charlies Le Roy, inventor of the famous | @ut-back saddle. In the fall, these men will en an enormous academy. ' An item of interest !n regard to riding habits is. that the skirts are now made but little longer than walking length and that not felt hate are worn In preference ‘to wilk hats or derbies.

Jewels that are presented as personal gifts to a sovereign are not included in the regalia that is the property of the crown. One of the most splendid pear] necklaces that -has ever been made was given by the Emperor of Austria to the late Empress at the time the unfortunate Crown Prince Ru- dolph was christened. This was bequeathed to the young Archduchess Elizabeth, with a quantity of other jewels. The private collection of the Empress was a short time ago valued at over $700,000. Among the gems are many exceedingly fine rubies. These stones have been valued as much from the fact that they are difficult to imi- tate as for their beauty. But this can now no longer be said of them. The cheap col- ored glass that has been used from time immemorial for tawdry trinkets or theatric- al properties is not worth considering. Be- sides this, there has been nothing approach- ing a worthy tmitation of the ruby that has deserved to rank with the Parisian diamonds or the Roman pearls for real beauty or worth in its own class. Now, however, it is said that a patent has been taken out in Germany for the production of artificial rubles. They are made by a process of evaporating a mix- ture of alumina and chromic oxide in an electric furnace. They are aaid to be ex- ceedingly beautiful, and it is thought they will become as popular as the manufac- tured diamonds. he new diamond mines discovered at Nullagine, in the northwestern part of Aus- tralia, has caused as wild a rush to that part of the country as has been made to the Klondike. Auvetralia leads in another article of use in the jewelers’ as well as other trades. ‘This is mother-of-pearl.

Here is the story his widow (who is now the wife of another man) tells of his end and her participation in the last days: “If I had but known the life he intended to follow when he sent for me to join him I would have remained here, not because I did not love him, but because of that love, which I knew would have brought him back to us some day. He was devoted to the children, kind and indulgent, and I shali always believe that this love would have redeemed him from the past if I had re- fused to leave California; but, of course, I did not know. “I joined him at his mother’s home in Kingfisher, Oklahoma Territory. It was here that I first learned of his intention to lead an outlaw’s life. When the trouble began I think I suffered most. I was un- acquainted with grief then, and for the first time in my married life I was left ‘alone with the children—left alone, wh‘le Mr. Dalton set out upon the uncertain jour- ney to help his brothers to escape from the State. He was gone two weeks, and it seemed two years to me.- I walked the floor night and day in the anguish of anticipa- tion. Perhaps he was dead, perhaps wound- ed or taken prisoner along w'th hie brothers. “We started on our journey from civiliza- tion at Kingfisher, a party of seven adults and four children. Three of the men had their wives with them. We traveled in two covered wagons through the trackless wil- derness of Oklahoma and Indtan Territories, our destination nowhere and our desire any- where to avoid the man-hunters, for each man in our party had a price upon his head. “Sometimes we pushed on and on, trav- eling night and day and in fear of pur- suit. O God! The eternal memory of those horrible hours haunts me now. The wretch- edness of the first night’s camp is a thing apart in its intensity from all my other trials. We suspected that we were being followed, and so camped that night with- out a fire and without sleep. The plain- tive cries of the wildcat, the rattling leaves stirred by lizards or snakes, would have been enough to dispel all thoughts of slum- ber; but the soul-stirring fear that the sun might rise over the dead bodies of our loved ones kept us awake. “After that night we women took turns as sentinels, for the men always returned at evening exhausted from their long day's tramp, hunting for game and new roads that were safe to travel. The first time I took my turn in guarding the sleépers I was nearly wild with apprehension, I had been staring into the deep forest until I imagined every light spot a human face and every tree trunk a body. If a twig broke or a leaf fell my ears magnified the sound and my eyes were constantly on the alert for some treacherous foe. The moon was full and the shadows from the pines played ghastly tricks with my imagination. “TIT was very nearly distracted with ner- vous fears, and with no intention of firing I reached for my gun, thinking to while away a moment in taking a quiet aim at a tree some fifty yards away. I raised my gun to take aim and saw what made my blood curdle in my veins; the figure of an Indian at whom I had unconsciously lev- eled my gun! I was dumb with terror and the Indian gave the first alarm by a peculiar cry that awakened my husband. “In an instant he was by the Indian’s side. It was ‘Indian Jake,’ a friend, who brought us news that we were pur- sued by a party not seven miles away. We broke up camp immediately in the dead of night and resumed our tiresome jour- ney, broken of rest and disturbed by dan- gers. This Indian had warned Mr. Dalton time after time, because he had once sayed his life when dying from. starvation. “It was a terrible life, this roving, flee- ing existence. The men themselves felt no safety, but tried to keep their fears to our hardships, we all were taken sick with malaria, and my little daughter is crippled for life from the effects of this dreadful disease. “There was an Indian uprising, and for weeks the men left the camp neither night nor day. Those were days of terror and suspense, and we patiently waited for the sign that ‘Indian Jake’ had promised to give up when the trouble had subsided. He never failed ig any of his promises, and often traveled miles to tell the boys that they were shadowed. _ “The harrowing details of my last week in Indian Territory are forever surging through my brain. We were camping at a robber’s rest cottage, preparatory to mov- ing into Mexico. Mr. Dalton had come home sick, after a two months’ absence. The other boys had gone off hunting for teams and wagons to haul our provisions to this new home. I was commissioned to go to Ardmore, the nearest settlement, to buy provisions for this long journey. “Upon this all eventful morning, as I was about to start for Ardmore to bid my hus- band ‘goodby’ and suddenly had the strange conviction that we would never meet again. A fearful foreboding took possession of me. It was unlike anything that I ever felt before. ‘“‘He saw the look of terror In my face and with a tenderness that was ever his nature tried} to quiet my nervous fears. When we drove away from the house I was smiling through my tears, but I had a heavy, heavy heart. ‘‘My feeling of gloom soon developed into suspicion as we rode along, and I found myself staring at the driver in a most singular manner. Was I going mad? Had my anxieties and the hardships of the past year affected my mind? I pulled myself to- gether with a jerk and entered into the con- versation, only to fall back into this sullen reverie.. Throughout this journey my eyes were riveted upon that man, and I felt in- tuitively that he was a traitor. To this day I believed it was he who informed the deputies at Ardmore of my husband's hiding place. “On the first day, when we entered the store, no one gave us unusual attention, but on the next morning quite a crowd had collected and eyes us curiously. I be- came alarmed and suspected trouble at once. We turned to leave the store and were estopped by a Sheriff, who put us through a sham trial over a liquor pur- chase in order to delay our jouney home. At last we were set free and immediately started for home, filled with apprehens‘ons of danger. “On the way we met one of the Sheriffs, who insolently inquired my name. I re- fused to give it and then he said, ‘Well, old girl, if you are Mrs. Dalton, we have got your husband back there in the wagon.’ “I fell down at his feet. Only too well I knew what that meant. That he would never be taken alive, ‘Mr. Dalton had al- ways sworn, and I felt that the end had come. It was a moment of agony too deep for words, and the wagon came nearer and nearer, bearing the form that for ten years had made my iife one of love. “The childen had first discovered the deputies on a ridge just above the house and warned their father. He saw the men, and, with his hand on the gun which had never left his side during the whole of this eventful year, he jumped the fence and started for the woods, but was stopped by a ehot from the Sheriff, who was hidden from view in a ditch. “The changeless round of suspense, an- guish and fear was over at last, and I thought that life held nothing more e cructating than what I had already an fered. But this wae not all, for the man who killed my husband asked me for his belt and pistols; and the man who hunted him down wanted his body for a traveling exhibition.’’ “REMEMBER THE MAINE!’ Capt. Sigsbee Denies That the Navy Used This Motto. Capt. Sigsbee, writing of the destruction of his battleship in the January Century, denies that ‘‘Remember the iMaine!”’ was used as a motto by the navy in the late war with Spain. He also indicates a per- fectly proper use of the phrase by patriotic Americans, He says: We have heard much of the motto, “Re- member the Maine.’ If we are satisfied that the Maine was blown up from the outside we have a right to remember her with in- dignation; but without more conclusive evi- dence than we now have, we are not rignt if we charge criminality to persons, ‘There- fore I conceive that the motto, ‘“‘Remember the Maine,’’ used as a war-cry would not have been justifiable. I should iike to make the point here, as I have made it elsewhere, that this great and free country, with its education, good intent.on, and universal moral influence, may go to war to punish, but not to revenge. Fmproperly applied, the motto, “‘Remember the Maine,’’ savors too much of revenge, too much of evil for evil; but it may be used in an entirely worthy sense. During the recent war with Spain about 7 men were killed and wounded in the United States Navy. On board the Maine 254 men were killed outright and others died later—more than 17 times ag Many @s were killed in the United States Navy by the Spanish land and naval forces during the entire war. In the way that the men of the Maine died and suffered there was enough of the heroic to provide a sound foundation for the motto, “Remember the Maine.” Let me dismiss the prevailing im- ression that this motto was used in the Inited States Navy, in the recent war, a5 a battle-signal. No United States naval ves- sel has entered into action flying the signal, ‘‘Remember the Maine."’ I am glad that it can be so etated; yetone may excuse many mistaken expressions of the heat of action. To this, the editor of the Century adds: It may be said on the authority of Capt. John R. Bartlett, during the war Chief Intelligence Officer of the Navy: “The sig~- nal, ‘Remember the Maine,’ has never been displayed on a United States man-of-war or by the army or navy, wi one exception. A signal quartermaster (an enlisted man) of the Coast Signal Service hoisted the sig- nal from the station at Port Bads, at the mouth of the Mississippi, when a transport loaded with troops was passing out to sea. In reporting the passing out of the trans- port, as was his duty, the quartermaster added to his message to hea quarters the fact of display of signal, which was re- wha > i. a ee , 4 me a : “: as ceived with great enthusiasm bs | He was severely os message over the wires.” — iow : + ~~ ’ 4 . 2 ee. HUMOR IN THE SMALL “ADS.” Funny Things Found in the Sale of Ex- change Columns in Chicago. Chicago Inter Ocean. There is more than one way of getting rid of some article you don’t want and get- ting hold of something you really need, or think you need, which is the same thing. If a man owns a dog and hankers for a watch, he doesn’t have to sell the animal and then use the money in purchasing the timepiece. That was the way it was done years ago, but the “For sale or exchange’ column in the Sunday newspaper has changed the method of operation. Pianos are «exchanged for sealskinge and jewelry. Books are taken in trade for silverware for the table and harnesses. Sign painting goes for clothes, and stenography for bi- cycles. One young woman advertises: “First-class teacher, with best of refer- ences, will give stage or society dancing les- sons for dry goods, shoes or anything use- ful.”” Another person says: “Opals or amethysts for silverware, typewriter or hardware.” & e + si ERE SLY ROI REN TERE i & ri ‘ - _
