BARTON THINKS HE SOLVED THE PROBLEM. J CREW HAS The Ship Is Equipped With Conning Tower, and Two Bomb Tubes, from Which Dynamite Shells Can Be Dropped on an Enemy. Special Cable to the Post-Diapatich. Coprright. 1899. by Press Publishing Company. LONDON, April 1.—Dr. Felix sarton’s airship, the trial of which was described fn a cable dispatch to the Post-Dispatch of last Sunday, has greatly impressed the British Government experts who witnesse:! it. To the Post-Dispatch correspon'ient Dr. Barton said to-day: , “IT have been requested by the authorities to prepare sketches and plans of my in- vention. The ship sailed 300 yards in the presence of Col. York of the Military Bal- looning Department at Wuvuoolwich, and would have sailed miles had i not brought it down. “The finished airship will cari:y a crew of eight men, ‘have a lifting power «f 4000 pounds, measure 130 feet by 7), and hive a capacity of @,000 cubic feet of hydrogen. The vertical area will be 172% square fect. The ship's length will be 37!% feet -nd uepin 10 feet, netting 2 feet, beam 12 feet. The dlameter of the wheels will be five feet and of the fan propeller 9 fee’. There are a conning tower, an engine 100m, stecring gear and bomb tube. “When you wish to rise you pull up the diaphragm, or inclined plane. in the fure part of the ship, start the propeller and you ascend. By lowering the asinuphragm you descend. ““My recent tests were onlv with a model worked by clockwork, but my flnished ma- chine will be driven by an electric motor, at a speed of 120 miles an hour, and wou'4 go from here to New York in about 30 hours. ; “There is no reason why tne perfected airship should not cross the Atlantic. Full accommodation for supplies for the crew would be provided in the ear of the vessel, which, by a secret which I do not think I will yet reveal, is always kept on an even keel through the bottom of the car, “There are two bomb tubes, wiiich counl be used for dropping dynamite shells on an enemy. “My ship is to be const‘ucted under the supervision of the military au:horities, ana IT am confident that it will fulfill the con- ditions I have promised." BROBKLYN: MAN’S FATAL FAT. Ernst Schult Weighed 548 Pounds and Was Smothered to Death From Excessive Weight. Special to the Post-Dispatch. NDPW YORK, April 1.—Ernst Schult was Brooklyn's fat man. He would tell no one his weight, so this week when he was taken to & hospital to die he was weighed. The ecales registéred 548 pounds net. He gradually smothered from excessive weight. Schult was very sensitive and seldom went on the street. “‘When I die I want to be buried without any fuss,’ said he. “I do not want a crowd to look at my body. I wou!d like to be buried in the early morn- ing sO as to avold a crowd.” His wish was granted. “Fatty” was born in the Province of Han- over, Germany, 3 yeare ago. He was a sickly and puny child, but when 10 years of age he began to take on weight very rapidly. During the latter five years of his life he never slept In a bed. He would doze in a chair. He felt that if he lay at full length he would suffocate. During a warm spel] “Fatty” never came out of the cellar of the saloon where he was employed. He suffered terribly from the effects of the heat. THE POPE MUCH IMPROVED. Rumors Cabled to London and the United States of the Pontiff’s Death Unfounded. —— — ROME, April 1.—The rumors circulated in London and cabled to the United States that the Pope was dead, are without foun- dation.

April 1—When George Gray, a young boat-builder, was taken ill early this week he lapsed-into a state of coma from which his physician was unable to arouse him. His aged mother nursed him. On Wednesday Gray suddenly awoke from his unconscious state and gazed about the room in bewilderment. When his eyes finally rested upon his motherg eager face a look of intelligence came over him and he seemed to realize that he was rot still dreaming. With a deep drawn sigh he said: “Mother. what day is this x “This is Wednesday, my son,’ hastening to smooth his brow. “Well, mother, I shall dite on Friday.

Rrecta! to the Tnet-Dtenatch, NEW YORK, April 1—The Tax Depart- iment in the Stewart Building has been ‘erowded durang the past week with New | York's wealthy citizens, swearing off per- ;sonal taxes. President Feitner has been | working overtime and the examinations he leonducts are behind cloeed doors. l'p to to-day more than 10,000 persons as- | sessed on persona! property have appeared and took the oath that they owned no tax- able property. The representatives of cor- porationg have been crowding the offices ‘during the past week. Over $3,000,000,00, it 'was estimated to-day by Ww of the Tax Com- missioners, had been taken off the $7,00.- 000,000 levy on personal property up to March ®.

Special to the Post-Dispatch. SPRINGFIBLD, Mo., April 1—It is sus- pected here to-night -that George Logan, the farmhand acctised of the murder of Ranchman H. C: Thomas of Texas County, has fallen into the hands of a mob. The latest advice from Houston, Texas County, is that Sheriff Cantrell had started to this city with his prisoner, for safekeeping, the mob excitement having increased after the prisoner’s escape from jail and his subse- quent recapture at the home of his sweet- heart. Logan has not yet reached Svrinefield, al- though 36 hours have elapsed since the journey was begun. If the programme was carried out according to information re- ceived by Jailer Hooper of this city, 20 miles of the trip is overland through Texas County, and this may have afforded an op- portunity for summary vengeance. : iouston and the greater part of Tex County are remote from the railroad ai telegraph and facts are difficult to obtain. is —_ aut JA subsistence. FIGHTING NOW ~ FAST OF MANILA Insurgents Gather in Front of Gen. Lawton. ; DRIVEN OUT BY GEN. KING. PITIABLE CONDITION OF NATIVE WOMEN AND CHILDREN. ‘ Gen. Otis Cables That MacArthur's Troops Are Resting at Malolos, While Scouting Partics Are Trying to Locate : Aguinaldo. MANILA, April 1.—The scene of active military operations has for the moment shifted from Malolos to the region just east of Manila. Gen. King this morning sent out a recon- noitering party of 12 companies of the North Dakota Regiment and a brisk en- gagement followed, during which seven Filipinos were killed. On «he American side a lieutenant and two privates were wounded. The plans of the rebels, if they have any, are conjectural. Considerable rebel forces have been collected along the fronts of Gen. Lawton and Gen. Hall, who are hold- ing che line from the waterworks to La- lonia. There is shooting nightly along this line, apparently for the purpose .of breaking the Americans’ sleep. Consequently Gen. Lawton has, detailed five sharpshooters from each company to attend to the rebels, and the Americans are p'‘cking off numbers of them. It is reported that the rebels, under P!l- lar, are concentrated at Cainta and Tay- tay. The American forces commanded by Gen. MacArthur, are resting at Malolos to-day. The men are in good condition, considering the fatigues of the campaign. HUNDREDS STARVING. Pitiable Condition of Native Womon and Children. SEATTLE, Wash., April 1--The Times prints a letter from a Washington volun- teer at Manila which was written wider date of Feb. 15, as follows: ‘The native women and children in our neighborhood and beyond as well as the old men and sick, are absolutely starving to death. Their husbands and fathers have been killed, wounded, captured or driven back to Malolos; their houses burhel to th® ground with all their earthly posses- gtons and they are left with no means of They attempt to come into the American lines by thousands, but have to be returned back.

WASHINGTON I$ PLEASED. — Belief That the Fighting in the Phil- ippines Is About Over. Special to tae Post-Dispatch. WASHINGTON, April 1L—The situation in the Philippines is said to be highly satis- factory to the Administration. The troops are resting quietly at Malolos and will push on to the interior of the country at the earliest opportunity. Dispatches have been received here from Gen. Otls, but nothing definite is ventured regarding the situation. Aguinaldo is desirous of obtaining terms of peace, but the only terms offered him are unconditional surrender. Gen, Otis has not advised the department regarding the nego- tilations in progress, but press. dispatches indicate that his last hope was based on a final stand at Malolos and that failing in that he desired a cessation of hostilities. Adjutant-General Corbin cabled Gen. Otis to-day that the graves of all men killed in the fighting around Manila should be care- fully marked, as it was the intention of the Secretary of War to have the remains brought to the United States at the earliest opportunity. Great care is being taken in this connection, and it is said that the dead of the Philippines have all been igén- tifled and that the unknown list will be | practically nothing. | Gen. Otis cabled to-day that reconnolter- ing part'es had been sent out to ascertain the location of Aguinaldo’s army. | It is believed that Gen.

The evening of March 6, a man, with a woman and child, ' registered at one of the hotels in Yankton as Frank Rando] and wife of Bloomfield, man registered under an as- ame, his true one being Frank . During his stay of three days hotel here he remarked that he was in a scheme to get $2000; that the women he was with was the wife of a man who murdered a couple in Cherokee, Ia., in 1898, and that she was to turn State's evidence against her husband for the mur- der and thereby they were to gain the reward offered of He claimed that the matter was nearly ready for material- ization. When the couple left town they seal sepacately. the woman going by train to akonda, on the Northwestern, while Culligan, with two others, left for Gayville with a team. Sheriff Hill of Cherokee met Culligan in Wakonda last Sunday, talked with him end even got a piece of tobacco from him. But it appears that Culligan evaded him later and Sheriff Hill came tv Yankton, in search of him, evidently knowing that Cul- ligan was mixed up in the affair, but was short of evidence at the time of meeting himin Wakonda. Culligan, up to this time, seems to have disappeared. It is stated that the reward offer for the arrest of the murderer is $1700. oubts are expressed as to the conviction of Nullis, as his wife cannot testify against him. Perhaps here is where Culligan hoped to be prominent. Just what other evidence is forthcoming is not known, but the Cherokee authori- ties are satisfied of the guilt of Nullis, IN A NEW DRESS.

A year ago he lived in a little country town in Nebraska, but worked on a farm twenty- five miles distant. He had taken “Shep” with him and sent the dog back to inquire after the health of his baby.

Schell Loan and Investment Co., created no surprise, as it had been known for several days that Prosecutor Doughman had been hunting for a case in the trans- actions of. the company which would per- mit of a criminal charge. This developed in the case of Appolina Gehant, who had paid $200 on a mortgage for which she had not received credit on the books of the Santiago campaign as a representative of the French government. A similiar position also he occupied in the Chino-Japanese war. He was educated in the government military schools of France, and aithough now a civilian his rank of licutenant still rests with him.

Herr Rese’s High-Handed Acts in Samoa. a. URGED NATIVES TO REVOLT. ONE AMERICAN AND THREE BRITONS WERE KILLED. - -_—-+ _——_———— Qdmiral Kautz’s Cablegram Shows That the Situation at Apia Was: Graver Than Supposed at Washington. Special to the Post-Dispatch. WASHINGTON, April 1.—Acting Secre- tary of the Navy Allen to-day received from Rear Admiral Kautz a telegram dated et New Castle, N. 8. W., March 30, giving official information relative to the recent bombardment of rebel villages in Samoa. The telegram was forwarded to the State Department. The telegtam reads as follows: “Mataafa people obeyed orders to leave Sovernment reservations. Since then have become aggressive, killing Private Hollo- Way and three British sailors. Our man killed guarding American consulate. Ger- man Consul General issued incendiary proclamation saying that my proclamation ‘Was untrue and he should uphold pro- visional government. The [Dritish forces act in concert with the United States, shelling rebels where (they) can be reached.” A copy of the dispatch was sent to the German Ambassador. While officials have had reasons to be- lieve that the German Consul had been in @ measure responsible for the trouble caused by the Mataafaites, yet.they were not fuliy prepared for the startling in- formation this message brought. The charges made against the German Consul General are of the gravest character, and throw upon him a great weight of respon- sibility for the rebellious, actions of the provisional government leaders which forced a bombardment. Aside from exciting the Mataafa people, Herr Rose stated that Admiral Kautz had issued a proclamation which contained falsehoods. This is of itself a serious of- fonse on the part of an official. Had the telegram been received 2 hours earlier, the Samoan situation would have assumed @ most serious aspect, but the agreement that has been reached within that period relieves the embarrassment that would have been occasioned& The agreement to the appointment of a joint high commis- sion, entered into by the three govern- ments, shows a disposition on the part of Germany to satisfactorily adjust ‘ajl aiffi- culties growing out of the government of Samoa under the Berlin Treaty, and action is not now deemed necessary that might have otherwise been demanded in view of the information furnished by Admira! Kautz, @ it is plain now that Admiral Kautz and the British naval officer were obliged to take prompt measures and to act with firmnoss While his acts are fully approved by the administration, he has been cautioned to proceed very carefully and to proceed with great discretion. It is also understood that the British commander has been directed in @ like manner. Full confidence is reposed in Admiral Kautz to deal with conditions arising. The German Ambassador, Dr. Von.

Foreseeing war, Malietoa Tanus’ people: got together all the men they couid tn Apia and the surrounding villages. They suc- ceeded in mustering about 2000 men. but Mataafa had about 3500, better armed and sauippes. as they had been preparing for the situation for several weeks. The situation became so alarming that marines were sent from the British cruiser Porpoise to guard the residence of the Chief Justice. it was barricaded, and all Britishers and Americans were sent to places of safety. The rebels had practically hemmed in the loyal party. No way of escape was left to them by the sea, and nearly all thelr boats had been selzed by the rebels.

Their object seemed to be to find the hiding place of Malietoa Tanus. On the advance of the rebels those in the Tivoli Hotel retreated to the London Mis- sionary Society's station. Upon reaching there they found that the new king had been left behind, and at great risk British Consul Maxse and Capt. Sturdee of the Porpoise returned to rescue them. In the fighting 13 were killed wounded of Mataafa'’s party. Four of Ma- lietoa Tanus’ supporters were killed and elaht wou rded. Under cover of darkness about 1200 of Malietoa’s party escaped to the British warship in the harbor. Many went to the German warship Falke and were protected there, but beyond this the German captain refused to act in concert with the British captain to stop biood- shed or to quell the disorder. Mataafa’s party then gained control, and on Jantary 4 a proclamation was issued by the consuls, recognizing Mataafa as the head of a provisional government, pending instruction from the treaty powers, with Dr. Raffel as Pres: dentsaf the Executive Board, The and 14 new Gov orament decided ‘two days later that the Supreme Court be closed.

Sturdee by the American and British Con- suls, and Justice Chambers announced that he would reopen court on Jan. 7. Capt. Sturdee of the Porpoise announced that if resistance was offered by the Ger- mans and Mataafa’s party he would open fire to support the rights of Great Britain and America. The door of the court was forced with a «ledge hammer, and court was opened without resistance, Since then the German Government has advised its officials in Samoa to adopt @ more reasonable course, but it has seemed disposed to stand firmly in support of its representatives by keeping -Mataafa in power. : JOINT HIGH COMMISSION.

The fran- chise allows the company to operate for a period of 20 years, at the expiration of which time all the property in first-class condition according to an established stand- ard. shall be surrendered to the Government without compensation.

RANKS THE SUPREME COURT. No Appeal From a Decision of an In. ternational Arbitration. WASHINGTON, April 1.—Solicitor Pen- fleld of the State Department has been studying the decision of the Court of Cas- sation, at Rome, delivered Feb. 4, in the case of Isaac and Samuel vs. Ernesto Cer- ruti. The result of that case has hereto- fore been given, but Mr. Penfield has found in it an interesting point in inter- national law. The court holds emphatically that no court of a nation can set aside the de- cision of an international arbitration. An agreement by nations is higher than that of any international court. The Court of Cassation decides that. the award pro- nounced by a court of arbitration is a law in itself, and excludes the provisions of the international laws of the two States who effected the compromise from appeal. Hence, the rules of pr‘vate right cannot be applied to tnternational treaties. The amounts aw ed and fixed must stand, and no matter how much aggrieved either party may be, or the private party party in interest,. no court of either State can change the decision of the Internationa! tribunal. The United States Supreme Court has never passed upon any such question, as there never has been an appeal from in- ternational award to the courts of this country, CHICAGO ORDERED SOUTH.

In addition, if any 0 the sand was landed at the city of Bahia, he was directed to pay a tax of 1 per cent more. The Brazilians may not know enough to make use of the natural rich- ness of their beaches, but all the world Cannot beat them in knowing how to squeeze a well paying business.

Action of Eastern Stockholders Check- mated and the Road Wil] Continue Under the Control of the Old Management. Bpecial to the Post-Dispatch. KANGAS CITY, Mo., April 2—J. McD. Trimble, EB. lL. Martin and Robert Gillham were appointed receivers of the Pittsburg & Gulf Railway system late last night by Judge James Gibson of the County Circuit Court on application of Charles A. Grannis and other stockholders and creditors of the road. It is declared that the receivership is purely a friendly one in the interest of the pending reorganization plan. The receivers named are now officers of the road and supporters of President Stillwell in all his plans. Mr. Grannis, who gives his residence as New Haven, Conn., is a heavy stockholder and the move taken so late to-night was to forestall certain minor stockholders in the East who were prepared to enter the courts and ask for a receivership. Trimble ie present counsel for the road, Martin is vice-president and Gillham general man- acer. The only lines affected by the receivership are those south of the Missouri River. The operation of the road will not be interfered with. The interest due to-day amounted to $575,000, and it could not be mat. When this fact became known a movement was in- augurated to secure the appointment of a receiver who would be specially | friendly to the BDastern interests of the road. his move was checkmated by the preparations of the papers for the appointment of loca}? receivers. “ Judge Gibson was applied night. The petition for the appointment of uw receiver was signed by Charles A. Braiey, E. F. Silver and John A. Eaton of the law firm of Trimble & Braley. The outstanding debt of the system is $23,000,- 00) of bonds. The interest due to-day amounted to $575,000. The equipment of the system amounts to $40,000 or $50,000 per month, which consumes the earnings and diverts them from the interest fund. The receivership does hot involve any in- terest of the Port Arthur system other than the main line of the Kansas City, Pittsburg & Gulf Railroad. The northern lines—Kansas City, Suburban Belt and the Port Arthur Canal & Dock Co., together with other interests, are said to be upon a Grm financial basis. * The financial troubles that have involved the Pittsburg & Gulf are directly attrib- utable to the fight against the complet‘on of the canal, as it deprived the railroad of terminal facilities at the lf for more than a year and compelled the company to make use of Galveston, which necessitated ving yp a very large share of the revenue ld ordinarily accrue to the road. artic seld (o-night: “Plication was made in order to _ falling into the ® one as receiver whom we now nothi about, and whose methods f handling the property could only be- ome known to the stockholders as events to late to- ST WHERE DOCTORS FAIL MOONEY SUCCEEDS.

Specia) to the Post-Dispatch. MPEMPHIS, Tenn., April 1—The Mont- gotnery Handicap, the first stake attraction of the opening day of the annual spring meeting of the New Memphis Jockey Club, promises te be the crowning racing event of the Western turf season of . EVe Western horse of class is a candidate, J being speciaily prepared for the race. t is the tirst handicap of magnitude of the legitimate racing season, and much de- pends on the, result. The history of the Se try Hig Handicap dates from the year 1882, when it was Known as the Montgomery stakes, It is almost needless to state that the stake is named in honor of the. founder of Montgomery Park, the late Coh H. A. Montgomery. The original distance was one and one-half miles, and was for 3-ycear-olds. The first one was worth $800 to Apollo, who won it in 2:42, with Mediator second and Joe Mur- phy third. Five starters were in this race. In 1896 Secretary M. N. Macfarlan changed the distance of the stake to a mile and a sixteenth, and brought it more prominently before the pubiic: Buck Massie, ridden by Thorpe, was first, with Maurice (Perkins) Hey del Mar finished third, there being only three starters. The time was 1:%% and the value $1455. Buck Massie was the recently deceased Hanover, In 1897 tle tie:d was the largest that ever started in the classic event, with the ex- ception of the 1898 handicap. Clem Creve- ling’sa Ulysses fooled the talent and won, beating teadowtherpe. Laureate, Honor, Paul Kauvar and Souffle, who finished in the order named. The time was 1:49%, and value, $1525. Salvable’s defeat of Ornament last 1898, will be well remembered. The orse belongs to Pat Dunne, and Wiliid Martin rode the son of Salvador, while the crack Eastern colored jockey, Willie Simms, was up on Ornament. As will be seen in the records, the value of the stake has increase°d in value each year, and the importance attached ti the race this spring is undiminished. The Montgomery Handica of 1899 will be worth in the neighborhood of $3500, very likely over that amount. A table showing ear, Devine of this city, is visiting relatives at! times first, Relief. B the relative performances of the most prob- able starters is interesting. It contains the weights, number of starts in 1898, and second, third and unplaced. Imp won the greatest number of races and Manuel the least. Cherry Leaf started the most number of times, and with 16 starts each to their credit, Crocket and George . Con are tied for the lowest number of starts. Name of Horse. Third..... Unplaced. Times Second. a Times — ei oo he | ~ COrIDS OABDWOLAQWwWaa-i muel .. Clay Pointer Kentucky Colonel Geo. .

A. Weltmer, the great Magnetic Healer of Nevada, Mo, So re- markable has been his success with the thousands of what was thought incurable diseases, that have come under his care that the world has stood astounded, and the Weltmer Method has been termed the great- est scientific discovery of the age. With- out the ald of medicines he relieves the suf- fering and puts the star of hope into the midnight of despair. Sorfie years ago this remarkable man was infected with the dread disease, consumption. The best phy- sicilans were called in, but they shook their heads and said: ‘‘He must die.” At this time, as if by an inspiration, he felt his great magnetic power and through it be- came a well man. At first people heard of his remarkable cure through his own power, thought it was but one of those lucky in- spirations that come to the artist, the writer or the inventor, and are rarely re- peated. But the thousands of afflicted that he has since cured from diseases and af- flictions of every description makes us bow down and hail him as the greatest bene- factor of the age. The New York Journal, March 19, truthfully says: “The Weltmer Method is the greatest scientific discovery of the 19th century; it marks a new era in the science of curing diseases of al] kinds.”’ We give below a few testimonials of grate- ful people that have been cured by this method. Mr. John S. Small, Colfax, Ill, was deaf in his left ear for seven years; could nor in its issue of PROF. Wonderful have been the marvelous cures : hear a watch tick when placed against nis ear. Was permanently cured in three days by Prof. Weltmer. Mr. . W. Rains, a wealthy lumberman of Hornbeak, Tenn., ing for this race, and their respective own- ers intend to start. The works of the next few days will determine their chances. A. H. and D. H. Morris will start both Manuel and Kentucy Colonel, T. M. Berry & Co. Cherry Leaf and Clay Pointer and J. W. Schorr & Son Algol, and either Macy or Ordnung, if either of the latter two are fit. George Walker hopes that Ordnung’s nervuclar trouble will not be serious and expects to start the colt. J. J. Marklein may start both George B. Cox and Mill- stream.- John Fay owns the former and L. V. Bell the latter. Mr. Marklein trains both and will stuart them if they show well. Algol, because of his performances, is given the heaviest Impost in all Western handicaps, and second to Ben Holliday in the Eastern fixtures. His best performance of 1898 was probably in the Oriental Handi- cap at Gravesend when he carried 126 poynds, defeating Dr. Catlett 114, Whistling Con 100, Twinkler 9, Sir Walter 113. Buela $4, The Friar 123, one and a quarter miles in 2:07%, equalling Clifford's record when he beat Henry of Navarre. Racing Form says: “Start good. on easily. lgol was a great horse to-Gay.’’ . The good son of imp. sep Gallant—Equal- ity has had a splendid winter, with not a day's sickness, and is a better horse to-day then he ever was. He is a quiet, settied horse now, and does not appear to have that wild way of working that character- ized his early trials as a two and three- year-old. Manuel, on account of his improved show- ing late In the fall, Is thought to be dan- gerous. Probably the best race this colt ran as a two-year-old was on Oct. 13 at Westchester, over the Withers mile. Straight away course, commonly called “over the hills." Manuel, 110, was first by a head, Autumn 107, Cormorant 110, Duke of Middlebu 110, Dr. Fitzsimmons 100 and Marylander 100, finishing behind him. The race was tun in 1:42% over a slow track. | Manuel {ts best on a fast track, and while Montgomery Park is not considered fast. the colt's work seems to indicate he will run well over it. He will carry weight, and likes a route, and has courage. Lit. tlefield will ride him. Duno!s with “Skeets’’ Martin up, wil! be a factor. As a four-year-old he was a more than fair colt, and his performance at California this winter made him a stake horse. He ran seven furlongs In 1:27, win- ning easily with 112 pounds up. In the Gunst Stakes at Oakland, one and a quar- ter miles, Adolph Spreckels 106 was first Buckna 116 second, Dunols 108 third. The time was 2:06 and Dunois was right: there Weighted as he is the son of imp. Florist— Berky B. wil] be a dangerous contender Cherry Leaf is thought to have a rasy chance.

THEIR LOVE LETTERS WERE READ IN THE COURT. ‘She Was Hysterical on the Witness Stand at Indianapolis, but Successful in Resist- ing Divorce. —_-—_ Mr. H. Hirschberg and daughter, Mrs. Sadie Meidner, of 5744 Clemens avenue, were in Indianapolis yesterday, accom- panied by Attorney C. H. Krum. They were there to defend a divorce suit brought by Louls E. Meidner and were successful in having the case thrown out of court. in St. Louls and his daughter was at one time quite a favorite in Jewish society. Concerning the testimony introduced at Indianapolis and the court’s ruling a spec- jal dispatch from that city says: The case was tried in the Superior Court where three judges devote every Sat- urday to hearing divorce proceedings. Meidner’s case attracted more attention than any on the docket because of Mrs. Meidner who is young, pretty and was richly dressed. “Meidner is a salesman for a New York wholesale house and claimed Indianapolis as his home. The wife denied that: he lived here and urged that he had no stand- ing in the local courts. “In his testimony Meidner said his wife abandoned him and has been living with her parents at St. Louis because he could not dress her as well as she had been ac- customed to before their marriage. He charged her with cruel treatment, betause she took from a mantle a picture of his first wife, and throwing it on the /floor, Stamped it with her foot. He said he and the second Mrs. Meidner had been lovers for 1l years before their marriage, but met opposition from her parents and brothers. e married another and after the death of his first wife, learned that Miss Hirsch- berg was keeping house for a brother in New York. e began corresponding with her and their engagement followed. They were married in New York, he said, and he left that city four hours after the cere- mony, to avold being killed by her brother. “The letters written by him during the courtship were read in court. They were long and breathed fervid love in almost every line. Others written after the mar- riage informed Mrs. Meidner that she was ‘stupid, ‘awkward,’ ‘poor of speech’ and that Meidner did not like her ‘Jewish man- ners.’ They lived at Allegheny City for a time before the separation. The wife denied all the charges of cruelty and aban- donment made by Meldner. “During the testimony Meidner said after his first attempt to marry Sadie Hirsch- berg had failed, he plunged into a career of dissipation and awoke to find himself married to another. After the death of wife No. 1, he said his letters had awak- ened the affections of his earlier sweet- heart, she became so enthusiastic over him that she threatened to commit suicide if she could not marry him. 1 as | had. not been married a week, he said, before she began spending his money faster than he could earn his salary of $1600 a year. “The real trouble, he testified, began when she found in his trunk a bundle of letters signed by ‘Eva,’ his first wife. He said she claimed they were from living rivals. ‘The question of Meidner’s place of resi- dence was the most prominent in deciding the case, as the Indiana law requires a two years’ residence within the State before a divorce can be applied for. While Meidner contended that Indianapolis was his home, his wife said that that had never been hér understanding and that his letters to her since their separation had been sent from Allegheny City. The granting of the divorce was vigorously resisted by Mrs. Meidner’s attorney.” ALABAMA REPUBLICANS MEET. State Committee Oppose Holding a Constitutional Convention. Special to the Post-Dispateb.

VABIOUS ENTERTA: WENTS TO * a fh * P ‘ NS 3 ne A ‘og? . ; - — SMALL INTEREST MANIFESTED. Some Enthusiasm Worked Up at the Ward Gatherings, but the Attend- ance Was Small and Cheerless. Indignant profests of honest citizens against corrupt municipal rule was the keynote of the final meeting of the Demo- cratic campaign, held in \various sections of St. Louis last night. The central meeting weg that of the Twenty-second Ward Demiocratic Cjub, at the headquarters of the /|Jefferson Club. There was much enthusjasm caused by ringing speeches denouncing the methods of the City Hall gang. Benjamin Selkirk presided. In his open- ing address he said there cpuld be no doubt that the full Democratic] vote would be cast for the party ticket. But more wuld be required, and the Democfats must en- list the bid of conscientidus Republ.cas who did not believe in the way municipal affairs were being conduct in the inter- est of corporations and under the influence of a poiit.cal ring. ‘ He introduced Attorney Charles FP. No- land as the first speaker. Mr. Noland did not mince words in impeaching Ziegenhein- ism. He dwelt at length on the methods se in indict.ng city officials who had n arraigned before the Major Commit- tee and said it must appear to any fair- minded man that the machinery of a cor- rupt ring had been employed to thwart the ends of justice. He dwelt at length alsv on abuses connected with the Court of Criminal Correction and the _ criminal] courts, stating that out of thousands of cases triea only 500 persons had been sent to the penitentiary at a total cost of $3)4,- 000, or an average cost of $63 for each conviction. Jeorge W. Fisher, candidate for the House of Delegates for the Twenty-second Ward, made a brief speech. He was foli- lowed by Joseph W. Folk, ex-president of the efferson Club, Edward Patrick O'Neill and R. H. Murphy. State Senator Frank Farris arrived late, after attending a meeting at Garrison and Cass avenues. He made a ring.ng speech, in which he said that all things were pos- sible to the St. Louis Democracy if they would bend their energies toward a proper form of organization and p.ace wey” squarely on a platform of municipal dé- cency. REPUBLICANS AT MUSIC HALL. Ex-Mayor Walbridge Presided and There Were Many Speakers. The Republican party in St, Louis wound up the Municipal Assembly and School Board campaign with a mass meeting at Exposition Music Hall last night, There Was a superfiuky of drum corps and other nolse-producing aggregations, and a rather small attendance. Ex-Mayor Cyrus P. Walbridge presided over the meeting, which was he.d under the auspices of the Repubiican City Central Committee. Several wards were repre- sented by marching clubs with bands and banners. Chris Schawacker, City Under- taker, and a power in.the Fifth Ward, caied especial attention «o the parade of his fol- lowers, which included a negroes’ club, an Italian: club and a club composed of Sy- rians and Armenians, whom Mr. Schaw- acker insisted were Turks. The meeting was cailed ta order about 9 o'clock by Theodore Kalbfelj, Chairman ot the City Central Committee! Mr. Kalbfell introduced Chairman: Walbridige, who made a brief address, eulogistic of the Republican candidates. The speakers were: E. O. Stanard, George Leighton, Louis P. Aloe, Lev Rassieur, O. M. Wood, Congressman Chas, E. Pearce, Col. D. P. Dyer, Matthew wu. Reyno.ds, T. J. Akin, Gen. John W. Noble and Gon, George H. Shields. ens Fhe ~ wetamne MUNICIPAL CANDIDATES.

TAUISVILLE, Ky., April 1.—The Foup- tain Cycle and Athletic Association issued an official statement to-day denying the statements made in various Eastern papers that the National Cyclists’ Association would contro) the track. Existing con- tracts prevented the Fountain Ferry Asso- ¢lation from denying even to “‘outlaws” the privilege of training on ‘the track.

It has been a chorus of thanksgiving and appreciation, and now, as a crowning testimonial, comes the message of gratitude from His Holiness the Pope, who, having used Vin Mariani, found it sustaining and health giving. Not satisfied with merely expressing thanks to above letter, His Holiness has been pleased to graciously confer a most beautiful Gold Medal upon the scientific producer of the health-giving Vin Mariani. What a charm there is in the name Vin Mariani! For three decades it has brought health and happiness to cottager and king. Her Majesty the Empress of Russia takes it regularly as a tonic, and the London Court Journal is authority for the state- ment that the Princess of Wales uses it with best results. Health is certainly the desire of all crea- tion. To the thousands who have lost it or never known its delights, a tonic that will rejuvenate the spirit and invigorate the Body is indeed a boon af incalcuable value. When the Grip (influenza) is epidemic in Europe, as also in this country, the Medi- cal Profession rely upon the tonic praper- tiles of Vin Mariani. It is given as a pre- ventative and also in convalescence to build up the system and to avoid the many dis- agreeable after effects so common with this dreaded disease. Vin Mariani brings cheerfulness to the morbid and depressed; it strengthens the weary; calms the nerves when overwrought by undue excitement—in fact, it makes life worth the living, and is aptly termed by the illustr‘ous writers, Victorien Sardou, Alexandre Dumas and Jules Verne, “‘The True Promoter of Health,” “Elixir of Life,” “A Veritable Fountain of Youth.” Never has anything received such uniform- ly high praise and recognition from emi- nent authorities. Those readers who are not familiar with the workings and the worth of Vin Mariani should write to Mariani & Co., 52 West 15th street, New York, and they will receive, free of all charge, a beautiful little Album containing portraits of Emperors, Empress, Princes, Cardinals, Archbishops and other distinguished personages who use and rec- ommend this marvélous wine, together with explicit and interesting details on the subject. This little album is well worth writing for; it is distributed gratultously, Emperors, princes, physicians and pre- fates have sounded the keynote of praise in and will be appreciated by all who receive it. > ——-— , om e ARTISTIC WALL PAPERS -} We carn give you some valuable points in color schemes for your interior decorating.

Citizens Will Endeavor to Prosecute the Issue to Conclusion for Future Information. The friends of John P. Herrmann are dissatiefied with Judge Fitcraft's rul ng in refusing them a writ of mandamus to com- pel the Board of Eiect.on Commissioners to place his name on the Citizens’ Good Government ticket as a candidate for the House of Delegates from the Twenty-sec- ond Ward. They contend that Herrmann was regu- larly nominated by qualified voters and that the action of the Election Commiss.onere in denying to him a place on the ballot was arbitrary and unjust. They say the ruling of the court protect- ing the Election Commissioners and per- emptorily denying the writ on a techni- cality was erroneous and cannot be just.- fled on any grounds. They have retained Morton Jourdan to fight the case through the Appeliate Court, He took the first step yesterday afternoon toward perfecting an appeal to the St. Lous Court of Ap . He tiled a motion for «a new hearing, which will probably be upon within the next two weeks, If it is overruled he may then go into the Court of Appeals. The decision will be rendered too late to affect next Tuesday's election, but it will establish a precedent that will guide the lower courts in the future and il, at the same. time define the rights of independent voters with relation to the nomination of candidates. And that ie what the supporters of Mr. Herrmann want. They bay they are inde- ndent voters and do not etleve they will deprived of the right of hise by the Cc t for that reason. e application for the writ of mandamus against the Election Commiesioners was made last week. Judge Fiitcraft dismissed it on the ground that the Election Commis. sioners had already printed the ballot be- fore the case was cal for a hearing.

The _ ———— -— = early, saying it was sufficient that the bal- lot had already been printed, as he would not put the city to the expense of another printing. Attorney Jourdan argued that the ques- tion at issue concerned the right of fran- chise of many of the citizens of the Twenty- second Ward and should not be allowed to turn upor cents. ut Judge Fliitcraft brushed the con- tention aside and sustained the technical objection that had been raised by the Elec- tion Commissioners. “Yes, I have filed a motion for a new trial in this case," eaid Attorney Jourdan last night. “I requested the court to pass on the motion at once. But thie request was a little out of the yrdinary and Judge Miitcraft concluded to let kh take the regu- lar course. “This step in the proceeding will have rothing to ¢o with the election next Tues- day. No ticket with Mr. Herrmann’s name on it will be furnished- to the voters. Or course, any person desiring to vote for Her- mann may do s> by erasing a name on «he printed ticket and writing that of Her. mann instead, and doubtless many will do so. It Is impossible to get a decision in the matter in time to affect Tuesday's election, and that is not the object of the | filine of this petition. “The sole purpose of prosecuting this pro- ceeding further is to secure the udgment and determination of the Court of A ais ling of the motion for a new trial is a necessary step under the law to the perfecting of the appeal. When the motion for a new trial is overruled, an appeal will be immediately taken to the St. Louls Court of Appeals, and, at the October term of that court, the legal questions raised by the petition, re- turn and reply, some of which are new, will be determined, thus estabiishin recedent bY which the Circuit Court and the Board of Election Commissioners will, in the fu- ture. be governed. “Under the present construction of the law the rights of independent voters have not been clearly defined. This, I say from a legal standpoint, for, as everyone knows, I am <a rtiisan. Democrat. I believe, as doe r.

CHICAGO, Ill, April 1.—The conditions in Chicago are ripe for a change. he present administration has totally neg- lected streets and public improvements and is plunging the city in debt. I believe in aang Ss ownership not only of street railways ut of gas and other public utilities, in whch, by the very ha- ture of thngs, there can be satisfactory competition, Every ordinance “rr prior to the vestment of the rig’ t of ownerenip in the hands of the people should contain a re- stricting clause allowing once every ten years full revision of the terms of the con- tract entered into between the city and private companies, I would add right here that Iam earnest- ly in favor of the referendum. This method of allowing the people to make the final selection in airs of such importance should control all phases of the franchise problem, and no legislation should be en- acted by an official body without first find- ing out exactly what the public demands.

DETROIT, Mich., March 1.—A long stride toward Detroit's ownership of the city’s street railways was taken this evening when the Common Council carried out the intent of the McLeod law providing for municipal ownership and operation of De- troit street rallwa 5 OE by adopting. a resolu- tion appointing Pingree, Carl E Schmidt and Hiliott G.

The members of the commission had previously announced that they would publicly notify the Council agreed upon before consummating a pur- chase, The matter was taken up at 4:30 p when a resolution was unanimously ate opt- ed requiring that he proposed commiss take no steps toward actual) acquirement of street railways until the terms thereof had been submitted to the Common Cowun-| cil for approval. » Every speech tm} favor of immediate ap- pointment of the commission was cheered and the chair threatened to order the lobby cleared on account of the disorder.

Brandt's do more busi- ness and employ more people than aay one retail shoe house in the West.

The whole seems to be a mighty cog- wheel and each man and boy seems to be a part of the mechanism of the wheel. They employ about 70 people, and a remarkable feature is the length of time most of them have been connected with the establish- ment.

Particulars at : vw resulted. The ferryboat Pierrepont was in mid- stream when the tug Argus, Capt. Atkins Paine of Malden, Mass,, struck her. She was so badly damaged that ft was with difficulty she reached her Brooklyn slip. The tug was uninjured. The Pierrepone was crowded with passéngers, probably 750, most of whom were women and children. So quick was the blow that not a person had a chance to reach the other side of the boat. The sharp prow of the tug pene- trated the side of the Pierrepont five feet forward of the entrance to the woman's cabin. As the timbers were rent men and women were thrown to the floor. In a moment all way confusion. Before the tug slipped away from the gash it had made nine persons had been injured and one thrown into the water. The horses at- tached to heavy drays were thrown down and almost stampeded. Above the din came the cries of the wounded, who crawled from the great rent through which the water poured. Several men, cooler than the other passen- gers, tore the life ae from their fastenings and hastily strapped them on the women and children. he ferryboat listed heavily to starboard and it was feared that her running gear had been damaged. In a few moments it was found that she could make her slip and the cap- tain, refusing assistance, continued on her course., The officers and deck hands as- sured the passengers that there was no further danger. The wounded were taken to the forward end of the women’s cabin, where their fellow passengers cared for them as best eg A could, As the tug pulled herself away from the Pierrepont, the cry went up that two young girls and a woman, who had been sitting in the back part of the women's cabin, had fallen into the water, through the gash made by the omen. There was a rush fur the port side and again the ferry- boat careen badly. A moment later a woman was. seen struggling in the water. He face was upturned, and in one hand she clapsed a rosary. “Save her! Save her!” shouted the crowd. A man, who had been foremost in plac- ing life preservers on the women, besought the Captain to lower a dory and rescue the woman, But it was not necessary. The cry of *“‘“Man overboard” had scarce- ly beén uttered before Capt. Paine of *the Argus had jammed his helm hard to star- board. The woman had gone down. The crowd on the ferryboat tried to designate the spot where the woman had last beer seen, and the tug slightly changed its course. It was probably not more than 930 seccnds before she camé to the surface. Capt. Paine ran his boat alongside, and one of his sailors attached a boat hook to the woman's dress and pulled her aboard. She was Emma Con- nors of Brooklyn. She was attended by a physician. He said that she had conges- tion of the lungs and would probably dle.

She Was a Remarkable Woman and Carried Out the Charities Be- gun by the Baron. PARIS, April 1—Baronfiess Hirsch, widow of the late Baron Hirsch, the Hebrew phi- lanthropist, is dead. The Baroness leaves several million pounds sterling, chiefly bequeathed to char- ities. Baron Hirsch left an estate of $25,000,000, much of which was bequeathed to charity and afterward dispensed by the Baroness. Millions have been spent in colonizing large bodies of Russian refugees in the United States and the Argentine Republic. A sad event occurred at the bedside of the sick Baroness on Wednesday, her s.ster, Mme. Goldschmidt, suffering an attack of paralysis in the room. Baroness Hirsch was able a personage as her many millions in her own right, she gave as freely of her wealth as of that left by her husband. She was a daughter of the late Bischofheim of Brussels, head of the great banking house of Bischofheim & Goldschmidt, that financed_the Erie Rail- Way reorganization in 1871.™ The Baroness, as a girl, was her father’s secretary, and ‘developed in that capacity the method and accuracy that chara ‘terized her entire after life. She married Baron Hirsch when 20 and was of great help to him in all his daring financial undertak:ngs as well as in his splendid philanthropic plans. Highly educated, she wrote and spoke German, English, French’and s8ev- eral other languages. The Hirsch establishment in Paris was managed with infinite care, the Baroness personally seeing to every detail. Not a social duty was ever neglected. Always ready to dispense! she guarded rigidly against waste. Her duties increased enormously after the Baron’s death. In 1889 the Baroness pro- mautented a plan for benevolent work in the United States. Mr. Oscar Strauss of New York was con- sulted by her as to methods of giving, but he declares that she had definite plans re- garding what she intended to do. Find ng that the Hirsch school in New York City was in a rented building she gave $150,000 to rear a house of its own. Commenting on the excellent work of the FAucational Alliance in New York she de- clared that the mortgage of $100,000 on its buildings must be hampering .t. She there- fore gave her check for that amount to the association. Especially did she desire to aid the working girls of New York City. A home for working girls was the outgrowth. she giving $200.0 for ground and builld.ngs and an annual income of $12,000. Having organized several similar homés in Belgium, Baroness Hirsch was familiar with every detail of the work. The candition of the Russian Hebrews in American cities especially appealed to the Baroness. She investigated the situation thoroughly and then informed the trustees of the Baron Hirsch Fund that she had placed at their disposal £1,00,000 for the per- manent relief of these peuple In all,“a careful estimate shows that the Baroness de Hirsch spent $1,300,000 'n Amer ica in charitable wo since her husband's death, three years ago, besides the annua, income of the fund of $2400 created by the Baron.

One grain trader on the St. Louls Mer- chants Exchange must have unpleasant. thoughts whenever he hears or readg of Adam Zad, “the man that looks like a bear.”’ This particular trader is -a bull | by heredity, environment and natural inclina- tion. He Knows as much as almost any other man about the art of boosting prices with a purely speculative lever. For the first time in his life this alert rain trader put himself on the short side oa he market. The outcome was that he fot squeezed. The consequences to him per- sonally were Fave enough, but he did not suffer alone. The squeeze was attended by one of the most exciting scenes in the memory of old traders. ] | | i Early in the week the longs got ready to apply the pressure to “the man that looked like a bear,” and the coterie of traders who had followed his lead. T late the shorts frantically tried to buy bac the wheat which they had sold on a down Scale as low as 67c:. With the market around 78c this was a heart-breaking opera- tion. Every purchase sent the market high- er, and to make matters worse the longs helped hele cam along by bidding the May and July options up. PY vain the manswho:got on the short Side by mistake bought millions of bushels of wheat in the Chicago market until he had completely exhausted the contract sup- Ply of the Windy City. By Wednesday the Situation had reached the summit of seri- ousness. The bear who was being squeezed figured long and carefully, and est:mated that to purchase the grain he needed to fill his contracts he would have to run the mar- ket to 8c a bushel, and stand a loss of nearly 15c a bushel. The bulls, led by a representative of one of the firms to which he had sold, were still running prices sky- ward. Something must be done and quickly. The trader- who was being squeezed made overtures for a settlement. This meant that he would fill his contracts at once in- Stead of waiting until the time for the May delivery if in consideration he were relieved of a portion of his loss. There was a lo conference, which was so carefully guard that the pit traders did not know of the negotiations until near the end of the ses- sion,” The news was cyclonic in its effect. Thée market had been pursuing its upwa course. A moment before it had ruled fil at 76%c. No heavy trading was required‘ t keep it strong. The crowd in the pit was small.

Singe Sunday games, like kissing, zo by fa- vor, it is but natural that the clubs that open their park on this date and who are most interested, should desire to do so with clubs that will give the greatest amount of satisfaction to the greatest num. ber of people. If clubs like-Pittsburg, Bos- ton and Philadelphia, who have so suddenly become converted to the Sunday game idea, and who appear so anxious to secure a greater number for the Louisville Club than the schedule adopted by the League gives to them, will only follow the advice they offered to St, Louis, Chicago and UTin- cinnati, and play a few *Sundays in the West, they can give the object of their so- licitude a game for every Sunday it is at home, And until they do this I cannot see where their right comes in to suggest that others shall do things that they taemselves decline to do. It is*a new and noved- sen- sation to me, anyhow, to be urged by Pittsburg, Boston and Philadelphia to play Sunday games with anybody. The shock upon my delicate and sensitive nature is so great that I may not recover in time to vote for any change in the schedule until it is too late. Am sorry to see you charged with being in the conspiracy. All that was done was done in open meeting, and everr- one who wanted to rearrange particular dates had the privilege, after which they were al! called off and checked up for the benefit of all present, and the schedule as a whole was unanimously adopted. If this controversy has the @fect of breaking up the system of representation by proxy it will be worth the trifle that it costs.

Monday Attorney-General Davis notified each agent that he intended to bring euilt against the insurance companies that were do.ng busi- hess and connected with ‘the rate boards and warned the agents against further in- fraction of the law. Yesterday Attorney-General Davis filed his complaint against 30 companies, among which ure some of the most prominent in the world. The aggregate amount sued for is $315,000, and the Attormey-General, in his petition, asks the court to declare for- feited, void and of non-effect the corporate existence of each defendant and that each be debarred from further doing business in the State. lt is a.so0 provided that if any corporation be guilty of a violation of the law. beside loss of charter, it shall forfeit not less than $2), nor inore than $5000 for every offense, The plaintiff alleges that defendants, by becoming a Mmemoer of said combination, have becume liable to the plaintiff in the sum of $3000 each.

Yes, even with greater ease, for they are trained to the sea from the time they can walk. A leap at conclusions might lead a per- son to think that among deep-sea sailors would be found the right k.nd of materiai for a racing yact's crew. Quite the con- trary, however, is nearer to being correct. Racing yachts, says Capt. Weed, require a different class of men than those em- ployed on seagoing vessels. Everything is different and to get an able crew it is nec- aungagttid to pick men who have when they Were|8 or 9 years or 100 tons as possibie. course to get men who have ence on the water, and that e eecured on vessels ranging .n from 10 to 100 tons, is much bett secured on larger boats.

LIVING, A Sailor Who Has Adopted a Venture- some Calling. From the Denver Post. A sailor who stood beHind Ensign Bag- ley on the torpedo boat Winslow when the young officer was killed last June, hung 150 feet above the street Tuesday morning, 6waying in the breeze and gilding the ball on the top of the Federal Bullding flag pole. F. 3. Sutherland is a venturesome young. man. He has Jooked death in the face more than once. When the masked battery at Nipe, Cuba, burst into flames and Bagley wrapped his arms around the pole from which fluttered the flag of his country, Sutherland was manning a gun. Tuesday morning saw him suspended over the edge of the Government building, and if a ro had broken or the pole tottered from iron fastenings he would have been dash to death. It waa two kinds of bravery, but both required nerve. The flag pole on the Federal Delldings have been growing rusty for years. Sut erland, late a sailor in the navy, came along, showed letters to Custodfan Otis Spencer and was given a job. No one else cared to undertake it, an the jetters showed that he had painted and gilded the oles on the Capitol and White House at ‘ashington most satisfactorily. Sutherland began on the fag pole, It is Placed within three feet of the edge of the roof and is 3% feet above the cornice. He climbed it like a sailor does, drawing him- self up the swaying staff with his hands and knees. On his back was a sma!) board to be uged as a seat, and rop.. *o fasten the seat to the top of the pole. His weight made the wood veer towards the street, but that fact did not discompose the sailor in the slightest. From his pocket he took a book of gold leaf, and by noon the ball re- flected dazzlingly in the winter sun. Sutheriand is a wiry, wene-e7 OF. athletic, cCanvas-trousered fellow, about 5 ‘feet 6 in- ches in height. He tells how Larenae Cleveland watched his work while an in- | cumbent of the White Houee, and says the big man was a Very leasant conversa- tionalist. Not only has Sutherland ciilmbed the Eiffel Tower in Paris. but he has ainted the flag poles of 20) Government ulldings, from San Francisce to the Cus- toms Hiouse at New York. “I'm used to it,” he explained, been at it for 17 years.

Just as Help Came the Young Maa Fell Unconscious, Bleeding From Twenty-Five Wounds, Special to the Post-Dispatch. CHILLICOTHE, Mo., April 1.—For 10 min- utes last night Gene Miller, a prominent young society man and athlete of this city, had the fight of his life with a mad wolf. He had only his handes with which to de- fend himself from the infuriated animal; he was in a section of town generally de- serted at nightfall and confined in a narrow alley from which bis frantic cries for help scarcely reached the saunterers who finally came to his rescue. Miller to-day lies in bed covered with bandages from head to foot and with 23 distinct wounds of the infurated animal's teeth on his body, beside innumerable scratches from its claws. The flesh of one thigh is almost torn from the bone, and there is much doubt of Milier’s recovery from the wounds, beside the added danger of pooutnie hydrophobia. The wolf was Miller’s pet, an animal of unusual size and for several months a notable curiosity of the city. Never before had it shown viciousness toward Miller Hiis control of the an.mal had always been considered remarkable and he fondied it freedom of the building and often it has [sat on its haunches beside its owner for hours when work on books or correspond- ence kept him downtown. Miller said that the wolf was company in the otherwise lonesome building. When Miller went downtown last night he found that the animal had broker out of its cage and upon making search discov- ered it in an alley in the rear of the store. Apprehending no trouble he approached his pet and sought to grasp it. Instantly the wolf sprang at his master, striking him full in the breast, Fortunately, Miller withstood the force of the animal's jump and did not fall. Before he had full recovered from his surprise the wolf's teet were sunk deep into his shoulder, and then began his remarkable battle. + There was no l.ght in the alley. Few per- sons ever passed that way at night. Not even a stick or stone was within reach and he had no opportunity to grasp a weapon, even if one had been at hand. Loudly shrieking for he)p, he sought to es- cape, but the wolf clung to him with ten- acity of a leech. Twice, thrice, a half dozen times he tore the animal from its yaa, but he could not kill it w.th his bare ands and he could not get by it to the one entrance to the alley. Again and again the wolf jumped on his master, each time in- fiicting horrible wounds, and still no foot- fall promised succor. : Torn and faint from pain and loss of blood, young Miller fought foot by fvut to the mouth of the alley. Then just as he fell at last before the force of another lean of the maddened animal, with senses | all but gone ane the wolf tecth in his flesh, he heard voices—and fainted. The rescuers Were close at hand, but could not reach him in time to prevent the wolf's further mutilation of his body as he lay unconscious and they had scarce appeared in sight before they, too, were put on the defensive. But Miller’s fight had been so brave and muscular that the wolf had felt its effects. Each of the three men who came to the rescue of the unfortunate Miller to-day exhibits wound inflicted in the further bat- tle with the wolf. which for a time drove them back. Returning to the stiil uncon- scious form of Miller, the wolf fasiene? Its teeth into his thigh and was tdken un- awares at the time, the three jrescuers stirred by the horrer of the situaJon to a with thorough confidence.

Prediction Thatia Devastating Flood Will Follow the Opening of the Stream This Spring. SIOUX CITY, Io.. April 1—Predictions are freely made here that when the Mis- sourl opens it wili cause a flood as devas- tating as that of eight years ago. At that time the ice in the Missouri formed a gorge a few miles above this point, caus- ing the muddy waters of the river to spread 20 miles wide over the flat bottom lands of Nebraska and South Dakota. al- most wiping out the town of Vermillion, fooding Yankton, Eik Point and other South Dakota towns and laying siege to Sioux City. At thie time the ice at Sioux Gity is found by the weather office to be 1¥inches thick andthere are places in the /center of the stream where i, is 25 inches through; at Yankton, 6 miles above, it is 24 inches in thickness; still further above, however, the river has only eight inches of ice. There the temperature is rising and a rise of two feet within the week at Pierre SD. has already been reported. Conditions seem to favor @ repetition of the disaster of 1881 in which net ge of dollars of was destroyed, many lives lost an, ° age done to railroads and telegraph > which Was not repaired for monthae The indications are that the river will break uP the ice whe.e it is thin and that this ice will sweep down and pile up in a | great stroining heap of Glittering blue that shall send they waters surging over the farms, deluging great a)cas i | aver, ‘ttile country of the Northwest. If the at tributaries pour into the “issouri the roperty | floods that are imminent, the consequences here neeu-no advance description. The horrors of eight years ago would be re- peated and increased in proportion, as the country is more thickly settled, the farm- houses more valuable and the towns in the lowlands larger. Reports that have come to the office of Capt, J. C. Sanford, engineer in charge of the Government improvements on the Up- per Missouri, make it difficult to determine ow the thick ice in the river is to es- cape down stream before that much thin- ner ice above will be upon it with over- whelming force. It is time for the break- up to take place, judging from the dates of previous years. On April 6, 1881, the tension of suspense In Sioux City and the towns on the Nebraska side of the river was at its height. A gorgo of ice, twenty feet high, was holding like adamant at a point thirty-six miles up the river's crooked course from Sioux City ani the water was spreading to the line of the Bive hills, twenty miles to the westward. Adventures of thrilling interest were chron- icled daily in the dispatches from such of the towns above the city The river had beer rising rapidly since March 27, business Was forgotten and the relief commitiees were working day and night caring for the people driven from their homes before the flood. Then the gorge burst. With the grinding ice flood a frame meeting house from Green Is'and came swaying and bobbing down the furious river, the bell swinging and tolling us if for those whose lives had been lost in the flood and for the Iinconcelvable devasta- tion that was wrought. Rallroad bridges were swept out above and below Sioux City and et Omaha... Droves of cattle Were swept away. Hundreds of people went back to their homesteads to find them as naked as when the Indian hunted buffalo over the prairies. Silt many inches deep covered the greénin winter wheat and many 4 man’s health was. undermined by the ex- posures he had suffered. This big flood, during which the waters of the M.ssourt were higher than at an time recorded since 1857, did thousands of dollars of damage to steamboat property, for those were the days when the river Was the prin- cipal avenu of commerce with the east. It was impossible to estimate the aggregate Ines to steamboat owners, but at Yankton alone it wasmore than $90.00 Many river boats the Bames of which are familiar of river traffic went down— the Butte, Rosebud, Helena, Josephip- among the MRS.

For the first time since the culmination of the January rise in prices the average daily transactions on the Stock Exchange this week were upward of 1,000,000 shares. There wag some diminution in activity on Thursday. when the trading was moderately restricted on account of the suspension of business yesterday, but as a whole, the week's market reflects a noteworthy reviva, of speculative interest. The very magni- tude of the dealings in stocks and the wild movements in many securities of a fancy grade are interesting phenomena of the current market. There is disciosed therein not only the aroused public interest in the market, but also a very reckless speculative spirit. As a matter of fact, the week's dealings have not resulted in Very materia] price changes in the standard class of se- curities. Some are higher and others are lower than at the close of business last week, In the main, chough, these securities have held their own in the absence of manipulation for a rise and in the face of circumstances of an at least superficially unfavorable import. The money market has been close all the week, wheat has risen on reports of crop damage received from various quarters, and but for the prevalent speculative op- timism, the events in the Philippines and at Samoa might have produced some alarm As regards the standard ng) 9: it wouid appear that the chief factor inducing new ventures for the long account is the gen- eral expectation that within a fortnight the money market will relax to the easy condi- tions prevailing in January. The same cir- cumstances has also beyond doubt permit- ted of the resumption of the active manip- ulation of the industrial shares and the specialties. Very Intie manipulation ts in- deed necessary at the present time to excite an outside interest in the quarters of the market where it appears. It is only neces- sary that a stock ghould become active and advance a litile in order to attract buying orders from the hundreds of eager specula- tors crowding brokers’ offices. Every day in the stock market furnishes dozens of in- stances of this kind. This phase of the pre- valent speculative spirit makes intelligent analysis of tue daily movements in the stock market well night impossible. The most important features of the out- side situation were the high-rates for money on call, the steady rise inthe foreign ex- change market and the February state- ments ef the various lines making monthly returns. Thus far the latter have, without import- ant exceptions, reflect the extremely se- vere meteorogical conditions of the month as it had been commoniy expected would be the case. On the other hand, as regards the losses shown, they have generally fallen below the general estimates from which fact nega- tive comfort has been derived. Money on call has ranged at about 4% to 6 per cent throughout the week. At the close money lenders advanced the rate on al! standing loans to 6 per cent, Quotations reported above or below that figure lacked general significance. he week's extraordinarily active deal- ings In the stock market were continued to-day. Interest was again most acute in the specialties and the industrial shares, are market. The initial transactions in ederal Steel common were. in, unprece- dnted volume, the tape showing dealings in 60,000 shares aut from 72% to 70%. The stock closed on Thursday at 67%. Ita rapid rise was in anticipation of the stock being placed upon the regular div.dend list. An- other sensational opening was in Manhat- tan Ralliway, where the intitial transac- tions were reported at 6000 shar from 118 to 121, against closing sales at 116 Thurs- day. Sugar Relining also scored remark- able rise. In the Standard stocks there was some irregularity in the early dealings but Jater a generally stro.g tone developed. The only notably active stock mov.ng con- trary to the general course of prices was Brooklyn Rapid Transit. That stock opened strong, but later declined rapidly. There was no news of a financial bearing over Friday, and the London stock market con- tinued closed over the Easter holidays. In the main the market's strength was a con- tinuation of the rise that set in earlier tn the week w.th the expectations of an early relapse in money rates. As usual on Sat- urday, the bank statement was eagerly awaited and prior to its publication the trading became somewhat irregular. The market closed strong. The bank siatement was about In line with average estimates. A loss in cash of $3,8%6,000 was shown, while in the loan ac- count a small increase amounting to $469,- GOO appeared. The resultent change in de- posits was a decrease of $3,333,@0, and the decrease in surplus reserves of $3,062,000 log- ically ensued from the other changes. The banks now hold $15,495,000 in excess of the lawful requirements. The actual pereent- age of reserves held is now abvut 28.7.

Special to the Post-Dispatch. POMONA, Cal., April 1.—“‘Before my God and the whole church I confess my sins. I confess that I have broken God's law.” The speaker was Miss Celia Overholtzer, eldest daughter of a millionaire orange grower of the Pomona Valley. The occasion was the assemblage of the whole Dunkard denomination at the large church. at Lordsburg in services commemo- rative of Good Friday last evening. It Is a modern instance of the sin of Hester Pyrnne and her Puritan pastor, Mr, D.m- mesdale, in ‘““The Scarlet Letter.”’ Seven years ago the Rev. Edward. A. Mil- ler was called to the Presidencyjof the Dunkard College at Lordsburg fr@m Phil- adeiphia. Among the girl studen@® at the college was Celia Overholtzer. She was #8: and an wnusually pretty girl. She be- came his secretary. Then rumors began. Girls left the school because of what they saw and heard. The rumors grew. Miss Overholtzer’s mother was dying at the time and she did not know the goesip. Last month the mother died, and then, when all Lordsburg began to discuss the scandal, her father begged her to tell the truth. She wept and protested her inno- cence. Three days ago, when the Dunkards | were preparing for the observance of Good Friday, and meghtly prayer-meet.ngs were in progress, Miss Overholtzer awoke her fatner ,ate at night, and, throwing herself | on the floor at his bedside told him that, at last, her conscience had overwheimed her, and she must confess wrong-doing for six years. The tenets of the Dunkard de- nomination require that all sins shall be told the churcna, 80 on Friday night Celia Overholtzer rose in the family pew and read her confession from a sheet of paper. Her voice was broken and choking Over 1h” persons were present, and all were sympathetic. It was some time before. tre presiding elder could recover his voice. Then, in faltering accents, he read a more detailed confession of the erring sister and offered prayer for her. Some one moved the expulsion of Miller from the church, and it was carried amid tears and cries. Miller knew what was coming. He had gone with his family to Los Angeles a few hours before, but he left a note confessing his gu.lt, and ask.n@ the prayers of his church. Miss Overholtzer was carried from the church to her home helpless and in a daze. One of her four brothers is to- day said to be insane with grief. OLD BLUE LAW.

HE REBUKES THE SENATE. Resolution Commending State Troops Incorporated Into a Bill Causes the Executive’s Veto. LINCOLN, Neb., April 1.—Gov. Poynter to-night sent a message to the Legislature vetoing the Senate bill which contained, in effect, a resolution of commendation of the First Nebraska regiment in the Phil- ippines. ‘ The language incorporated into the bill and of which the Governor was forced to take cognizance, leading to his veto, says: “We acknowledge with gratitude and joy the debt that-the State owes them by reason of the honor conferred upon it by their valor, while defending in the Phil- ippines the principles of our Government and adding new glory to our flag.’’ “TIT cannot stultify myself and the calm judgment of the thinking people of this Commonwealth by giving official approval to the statement that the war of conquest now carried on in the Philippines is in de- fense of the principles of our Government and is adding new glory to our flag.” The Senate promptly passed the bill over the veto, but a like effort failed in the House, the Populists voting solidly to sus- tain the Governor. The bill was passed several\ days ago and the veto followed shortly after an extend- ed conference between Gov. Poynter and W. J. Bryan, who returned home to-day. 4 Mrs. Elizabeth Skeats, who recently died in London at the age of 8&7, prided herself upon being the mother of s:x policemen.

Patrick Reilly, with lodgings at Hotel Thane, 1990 North Broadway, is,the hap- piest man in St. Louis today. That he has reason to be happy you will believe from this story of his $2000 check. With an eye for @ rainy day, Mr. Reilly has been’ “putting by’’ a portion of his earnings each week. He contracted the habit in childhood, and it failed him not in later years. It was his great boast that he had acquired a competency, and recently he decided on a trip to Ireland. All ar- rangements for the trip were completed in the early part of last week. Pat made out a check for all his savings in bank, amounting to exactly $2000. He deluyed having it cashed, but he watched it closely. Upon retiring Thursday night he placed the $2000 check under his pillow. When he awoke in the morning it was gone. The police were notified and the Chief of De- tectives was personally solicited to ferret out the culprit. Pat was well nigh dis- tracted. His dream of the Emerald Isle with her hills and valleys and shamrocks vanished like a soap bubble. But “the Bold chief’’ must have heard what a fine sort of a man Pat Reilly was, for he returned with the check yesterday and placed it under the pillow exactly in the same spot where Reilly had stowed it away. When the discovery was made Po- licemen Shaw and Steele, who were scour- ing the Fifth District for the thief, were summoned. Mr. Reilly said their diligence should be rewarded, that it undoubted! caused the suspected person to bring bac the check, and he forthwith handed each 100. “If Ireland,” said Pat “had been freed from the tyrannical yoke of Johnny Bull it could not have made me happier than I am. to-night and will be all of Easter Sunday.”’ Belleville Marriage Licenses.

Uncle Sam's big warship and her officers were at once sdcilally and officially made welcome. Owing to the fact that the Raleigh had touched at Bombay, certain quarantine regulations had to be fulfilled, but as all aboard were in the best of health, these restrictions were slight. In addition to this, the ship had undergone the usual] 10 days’ quarantine at Port Said without de- veloping any tropical malady, so it may be definitely understood that she was able to show a more than usually good bill of health, After spending the first day in Bighl Bay the Raleigh was towed around to Dock Yard (reek, where she was moored during her etay. . On Monday morning United States Con- sul Grout paid an official visit to the cruis- er and upon his departure received the sa- lute of «even guns due to his rank. Fol- lowing this, Capt. Coghlan came ashore to pay his respects to the army and navy authorities and to the Depucy Governor. In the evening Admiral and Lady Hopkins gave a dinner in Capt. Coghlan’s henor. Ali the official eociety 6f Malta was rep- resented. , On the evening of Feb. 28 the officers of Fort Riscasoll gave a jarge and formal din- ner in honor of the Raleigh’s commander. The spirit of the occasion was the new and pleasing relations between the two great- est nations of the world, and it is safe to Bay that Ma.ta has never seen before sv significant an entertainment in all its. bis- tory. Among the soldiers and sailors of the Queen and those from the Ra.éigh the re- lations were quite happy. All of the cruis- er's men with shore leaves were piloted about by thelr cousins in arms and the joliification was complete. As for the officers of the ship, they were made to feel that it was open heuse for ‘them, The Union Club threw open its doors for their entertainment and the crowd at the club was persistent in its eagerhess to shave every detall of. the engagement in Manila Bay. In feet; if: the Raleigh -had been an English saip returning from an English triumph the enthusiasm could not have been more pronouficed. On Wednesday, March 1, Capt. Coghlan and several of hig officers were.present at a box party: given by Consul Grout at the Royal Theater. The crew of the Raleigh subscribed $3850 for a new suit of colors, to be presented to the ship. These flags con- sist of an ensign, a jack and a homewara- bound pennant, all of-silk.

Ooprricght. 1800, by Press Publishing Company LONDON, April 1.—The Post-Dispatch correspondent has made exhaustive in- quiries respecting the story from Slerra Leon, West Africa, that two white girls, 16 and 18 years old, daughters of American missionaries, massacred in the Mend upris- ing last October, had been captured by na@ives. These Inquiries prove that no Ameérican eiris were abducted. The only married missionaries at Mendi at the time of the Maseaere were Mr. and Mrs. Cain, Mr. and Mrs. McGrew. The frst named were a middle-aged coup'e, and they had any children they left them in the United States The other couple had only been married four years. The two women missionaries Known to have been murdered at Mend! were unmar- ried. Probably the girls carried off were children of native missionaries, of whom there are many, DO NOT LIKE THE TREATY.

The Heathpool commenced to sink immediately, and her captain called out to the other vessel, a larger ship, to slow down, but the latter swung around and apparently proceed The survivor jumped into the water an clung to a life boat until picked up. The_British steamer Ethelhilda is off Dun- geness, proceeding slowly and not under ‘control, according to. the signal flying, She has eanyvgs about her bows and her boats are hanging over her #eides., She has sig- naled that she has been in ‘a collision and that her forepeak is full of water. A French fishing smack, which was off Dover yesterday evening, was in collision with an unknown vessel, possibly the Ethel- hilda. Six of her crew were drowned. The German steamer, Pontos, from Rosa- rio about Feb. 4, hag been sunk in the channel after be'ng in collision with the British steamer, Star of New Zealand, The boats ofthe Star of New Zealand were stove in and she is returning to London. The Pontos had on board a cargo of cat- tle, 1000 sheep and a quantity of wheat. It appears that the Star of New Zealand ran into the Pontos during the darkness of the early morning, striking her amidships, Twelve seamen who left the Pontos in a boat were picked up exhausted and have been landed here. The captain and 19 vs the crew have been landed at Has- tings. A large up-channel steamer has sig- naled that she has rescued 12 of the crew and six passengers of the Pontos, and thus all of the crew, numbering 3 men, and iall the passengers of the sunken steamer have been rescued.

The Socialistic press ad- its that if the claim Is correct the funda- ental doctrine of the party is demolished, ut the Socialist papers neither admit nor deny the truth of the allegations.

On Saturday, March 3B, the. Sheriff learned that Emma and the gang were camping in an isolated house a few miles from Dexter, He raised a posse of citizens, swore them in as deputies, and rode out of Bloomfield, the county seat, at the head of a score of armed men to storm the stronghold of the outlaws. , Early Sunday morning, while the shad- ows of the hills still lay across the snow- covered clearing where stood the house in which the outlaws were fortified, the Sher- iff and his men came upon the scene where was to be fought the battle. The Sheriff did not ride out into the open nor did his men. Not they! The Hendrickson gang was too desperate to permit such a proced- ure. Nor did they march in military for- mation to the edge of the timber and fire volleys, or send out an emissary under a flag of truce, Posses do not fight that way. Rifles began to bark from the windows and from loopholes in the house. They were answered from behind trees and a rail fence that zgigzagged around the clear- ing. Bullets crashed through windows and buried themselves in the logs of the ojd house. Other leaden missiles’ clipped boughs off of saplings and made the Sher- iff’s men hug shelter more closely. This desultory UGring continued for an hour or more without casualties or results, The Sheriff passed word around for his force to scatter still more and surround the house. This maneuver was perceived by the outlaws. To be surrounded meant cer- tain defeat. There were but nine of them, These could not hold the fort against DB. Then Emma’s daring asserted itself, She called upon her father and his men to fol- low her in a body and fight their way to liberty. Before the Sheriff's men could execute his order the door of the cabin was thrown oven and bmma dashed out, rifie in hand, the gang at her heels. She dropped on one knee, her rifle went to her shoulder, and e6he fired the first sortie into the Sheriff's men, who started to rush forward when they perceived the new tactics of the outlaws. Two hundred yards or‘more intervened be- tween the combatants. The outiaws’ bullets went so nearly true that the Sheriff's men retreated a few aces and took ehelter again. Emma, by er father’s side, was in the outlaw van. All were firing at the posse’s cover and running a bit oblique of that position for a cut in the fence. Anewering flashes came from behind the fence where lay the Sher- ifs men. Scarcely half the space to the cut in the fence had been covered when o.d man Hendrickson uttered a cry. His arma shot skyward, his rife dropped, he stumbled and plunged face downward into the snow. in an Instant he was dead. The outiaws seemed panic stricken by the fall of their leader. They ceased firing, scattered and ran like deer. All but one—Emma. She was at the old man’s eide when he fell. There she stayed.

At any moment they may be shot. Every agency known to civiliza- tion has been put in motion to save them from the fate of the filibuster. M. H. Alexander of St. Louis, brother-in- law of Guthrey, declares he will spend his last cent to save the young man from harm. Scores of telegrams have been gent to Seo- retary of State John HayjJand Missouri Genators and Representatives, urging ac- tion on the part of the United States Gov- ernment. The long distance telephone to Washing- ton has been called Into service. All the American Consuls in Honduras and Guatemala have been instructed to in- vestigate o Communication with the acting Minister to Honduras has been frequent. A United States gunboat has been ordered there to back up any claims which may be made. But still there is no news of Guthrey and his companions. American officials in Hon- duras and Guatemala cannot find them. They may be alive. They may have been shot. The news of their arrest was first brought to this country by J. A. Kilpatrick, a civil enginéer, who was also arrested, but es- caped. He reached New Orleans March 22. According to his account the following men were arrested: Churchill H. Guthrey, of St. Louls. Gus Flournoy of Linneus, Mo., drug clerk at the Midland Hotel, Kansas City, Mo. John Roberts. James Dalrymple. C. Arthur Brett, recently a Corporal in the Fifth Missouri Volunteers. W. Johneon Harris. All of these men were, unti!l recently. sol- diers in the Fifth Missouri. All of them live in Missouri; most of them in Kansas City. Harris, whoee first name is unknown, car- ried letters to Col. Jeffries, one of the leac= ers of the Guatemalan revolution. Col. Jef- fries, as well as the Americans, it is claimed, has been sentenced to death. Before the middle of February @ call was lasued by an attorney in Kansas City for miners and laborers to be shipped to Guate- mala. Whatever the true object may have been, it is a noticeable fact that most of those who signed the contract were volur.- teers just out of the army—enthustiastio es of fortune, open for n exciting engagement. we held, , but gbe. men young fellew~ agent that the soldiers were refused transe- portation. Most of them returned to Kan- sas City, but Guthrey and a score of others pressed on. Later it was learned that the intention of the band was to land in Guatemala, where several hundred rounds of arms were stored, and jolm forces with the soldiers of Reyes and overthrow the Government of Nicaragua, after which Reyes was to turn the flower of his army over to: the men interested in the overthrow of President Bonilla of Honduras. To oust Bonilla from office was considered an easy task. | Instead they fell into the hands of Gua- temalan soldiers and were con- demned death. They may have been taken into the mountains and shot. They may be. guffocating in some obscure prison. The fact that the American consuls cannot locate them does not argue that to they are free. It only indicates that their fate is more certain, - more terrible, because there can be no in- terruption of their enemies’ plans. Kilpatrick said: “March 13 I was ad- vised in Gautemala by one of the leaders of the revolution to go to the mountains. I was then at Morales. Accordingly I left at 10:30 a. m., accompanied by Charles Brett, one of the party. At that station we left John Roberts, James. Dalrymple and W. Johnson. The remainder of the party were scattered out. Guthrey and Flournoy were sent to the end of the road, El Rancho. What became of them after that I do not know, “After the order from President Cabrera to the effect that all Americans and En- glishmen who had recently come into Gua- temala should be banished from the coun- try, them up. pilot of an engine. the soldiers were sent out to round I was arrested while on the I was taken to Puerto all then night in a loathsome prison. be- fore the commandante, closely questioned, and ordered get of the There was no charge against me.

It was first made public in St. Louls through the Post-Dispatch of March 23. Mr. Alexander of 2999 Olive streef, learn- ing the terribie news, at once set about the task of rescuing his adventurous young brother-in-law. Concerning the matter he said: “Chure John G. we li Guthrev ‘« ~- of ihe ®te uthre “After being graduated two years ago he came to St. Louls and boarded at my house while having his eyes treated.

I suppose he was led to believe that there was a good opening for a man of his attainments in that country. “The first intimation I had that he con- templated leaving Kansas City was on Washington's birthday, when he tele- graphed me a request to send him $7 im- mediately. It being a holiday, I could riot get the currency necessary for wiring him what he wanted, so I sent him a check by mail, wiring him that it was on the way. “T have learned since that he left Kan- sas City the next day. “Tl did not hear directly from him, but his mother, living at Marshall, Mo., re- ceived letters from him at frequent in- tervals up to two weeks @go. ‘The first information that Guthrey was in danger I received from the Post-Dispatch of Thursday, March 2.

He is in the pen!l- tentiary. Like Kipling’s “Bad Delilah,”’ he told. The arrest of the others followéd. — Molile Mathes is an anonoby. Her hus- band, one of the leaders of the gang, is a tall, uncouth Westerner, daring and fear- less, of that type of virility which has so great a charm for women. She is not re- fined—could not be in the very nature of things—bu. she is crafty, tactful and courageous and furnished the brains for her red-handed associates, It is claimed that she plotted and de- signed the murders while her husband and his followers) executed the plans.

She is a haughty prisoner and |refuses to tell anything con- cerning the doings of the Mathes-Algood gang, with whose members robbery seems to have been a pastime. and murder a science. Mollie Mathes is tall and comely. Her eyes are blue and searching, shrewd and cunning. Her whole face is that of a woman who wills and does and is able to make others do for her sake, even to the extent of foulest crime. Her personality is unique. She is mascu- line in her bravery, feminine in her love for finery. She rode horges like a cowboy and shot a rifie like a veteran bear-hunter. She could handle a pistol better than the best duelist in Europe, and she had ideas about firearms which few women would ever have entertained. She preferred a oistol of blue steel to one of nickel plate, because the! brighter revolver could not be used at night without giving a flash of warning. She liked a pietol of single action because theré was no chance for a man to slip his finger behind the trigger guard and render the weapon powerless. Mollie Mathes was proud of her long black hair and vain of her strong, supple iimbs and her small hands and feet. She was vain, too, of her power over men. Her realm waa small, but never did courtiers bow more humbly at the throne of Queen Bess than these rough men, these outlaws, at the feet of Mol'ie Mathes. She ruled by force of aind, Bhe of purpose and superi- Wi exe MATHES is the queen of oné ority of mind. She was the idol of her hus- band and the queen of his followers. Sometimes Mollie Mathes visited her rela- tives in St. Louls and Chicago. Just who these relatives are and in what section of the two eities they reside is not known. She was too wise ever to let anybody know her whereabdot while away from Kansas, or to have stattered about any letters or papers which} might farnish a clew. It is believed that these periodical trips to the city were made not for recreation so much as fur opportunity to distribute the cleverly made counterfeit money which her husband's gang turned out without stint, for her benefit.

If any mercha doubted for an instant that the mone, was not genuine, his doubts banished when he saw the innocent-appearing and good- looking gentlewoman who had given it to him, She threw off suspicion by her de- liberate manners. She kept cool under all circumstances. She never lost her nerve. The deeds of the Mathis-Algood gang were brought to light by the confession of one of the band, who ie now in the Wichita penitentiary serving a sentence for horse stealing. He has given to the officers ma- terial with which they expect.to prove that in the last two years the gang has made way with no less than four lives, and stolen hundreds of dollars. They also ex- pect to prove the gang gullty of the mur- der of two detectives, who were eent to work up a case against the lawless gang several years ago. Furthermore, the detectives expect to prove that these cronies were prompted and directed by a woman—this same haughty, taciturn and tactful Molile Mathes, who pleads innocence and poses as a cook, in spite of the fact that her methoc of crime is known That she could not have been acquainte with the character of the men with whos she dealt, the officers claim, is impossible, That she ever cooked for them a minute, they say, is highly improbable. ; Mollie Mathes was not the woman te slave for a gang of alleged farmers, when they were pillaging the country and mak- ing counterfeit money for the purpose o providing her with the finery she craved. These Kansas officers expect to prov that Mollie Mathes is as much of a savag at heart as was Kate Bender, who bedt to death the victims her old father had lured to their murderous home. But they expect also to prove that Mollte Mathes did her work scientifically and intelligently —not that she performed the actual deed of murder, but that she planned the crimes, helped manufacture evidence and create situations which would later reflect upon innocent persons—-as they did upon his wife and a man named Dobbs when they killed Joseph New—and gave directions how the. final work should bé done. For this crime Mrs. New and Dobbs are now serving life sentences In the Kansas penitentiary. Kansas officials now believe that the Mathis-Algood gang killed New and fastened the crime upon these twe persons.

i { TAPP, SALVATION ARMY CAN AH HAH GK ning for Office in Wichita on a Platform of Brotherly Love and- Municipal Ownership of Public Utilities. WICHITA, Kan., March 29. dal Oorrespondence Sunday Post-Dispatch. ‘* "0-DAY eevera: thousand.men, women and children in Wichita are wearing { James*W.TJapp badges. The badge insists of @ small ‘serew with a boit on 10 end. Tubp is the “‘citizens’ candidate 4 mayor tn one of the hottest campaigns ver waged in a municipality. Many farmers tn the country surrounding Wichit# have volunteered to bring their wagons to the city and hau] Tapp voters on election day. Many Wichita people have also volunteered their services in this re- gard, and there will be no lack of vehicies for Tapp voters on the day of the election, Women vote in Kansas. and the women of Wichita are largely responsible for the immense registration. Tapp’e connection with fraterna) orders which have women's auxiliary societies in connection with them, and his prominence in church affairs have brought him a large support among the women of Wichita. During the last days of the registration time something of a rivalry sprung up between the women of the wealthier class and those in more moderate circumstances, and strong efforts were made on both side in securing women to register. “Jim Tapp keeps store’ th Wichita. All his customers know him as “Jim."’ He is eociable with all of them, and has always a joke to tell or a happy something to say. He now lives in a comfortable home on Water street, one of the largest houses in that part of the city. Mrs. Tapp does all her own work and is proud to acknowl- edge the fact. The oldest daughter is mar- ried to George Wolff, one of her father's employes. Theré are two boys, George, aged 17, and Henry aged’'15. The young- est daughter, a girl of 12 years, is her father’s especial pride and spends all the time she can svdare from school at the store with him. The three children are going to school every day. “TI feel the need of education,” said Mr Tapp, “and I'm bound they're not going to have the same feeling. Besides, ‘ think the boys and girls of this country must be educated to confront the con- ditions. which they will have to confront from this time on.” Election.day, April 4, oddly enough, will be the 20th anniversary of Mr. Tapp'’é mar- riage. He is now 438 years old and Mrs. Tapp is 386. Tapp is unique, uneducated and uncouth in his manners. For eight years he was a habitual drunkard and for four years a srofessional gambler. He was acquainted with poverty aud hardship from birth, and it was only a few years ago that he got bis first taste of prosperity. But now he asks but two years ag Mayor of Wichita to start a@ movement which the is confident will eventually revolutionize the social condil- tions of the country. If there were no probability of Tapp’s election, his history and what he hopes to pwvemplish would be altogether uninter- ing. But there is such a probability. The inagers of the Republican campaign are coming alarmed for the safety of their andidate, Finlay Ross, the present’ Mayor. “he laboring classes of Wichita, irrespec- tive of party, are behind Tapp as a unit, and among the church people and fraternal societies he has a big following. The regis- tration has been the largest in the history of Wichita, and supporters of Tapp have been particularly active in swelling the lst of names on the registration books. “T- don’t want any bigger office,”’ he says. ernor or Congressman or President or any- thing thing else. All I want to be is Mayor of Wichita, and I don’t want the responsi- Dilities of that office more than two years, I'm a man who don’t want too much re- sponsibility on my mind, and if I can’t do what I hope to do in two years I can’t do it at all, Besides, wheQpyou get into a bigger office you've got to mix in politics, anda I'm not a politician and have no use for politics in general. “If I am elected Mayor of Wichita I tell you what I will do In the first place I will practice brotherly love every day of my life and by example will make others prac- tice it as well. As a citizen I can do things that will not be taken account of generally, but as Mayor of Wichita whatever I may choose to do will be widely noticed. I wiil insist on the organization of all classes of labor, from the men who work in the stores and on the streets to the skilled mechanics, I will do all in my power to place Wichita in control of its public utilities,and believe I will have no trouble in accomplishing this, as the sentiment here is in favor of public ownership.” “What is your idea of practicing brother- ly love?”’ was asked. “To take an interest in the welfare and comfort of others, no matter how humble may be their lot,”” he replied. “As Mayor I would go out and ride along the streets with the expressmen and the teamsters and talk with them about their work and about their homes. I[ would advise and help them in such ways as I could. I would go to the laborers I employed on the streets and discuss their conditions and comfort them. I would mix among the railroad men and the merchants and the members of the different labor organizations and whenever I saw the opportunity of doing something beneficial in any way I would take advantage of it. I would even go to the immoral women who are bound to be @ part of. any city of Wichita’s size and counsel with them. Some I might convince of their error, and those whom I couldn't I would show I did not despise, and maybe in that Way sow eeeds which at one time or another would bear fruit. It would be my object to make every one love me and look upon me as a friend, and when others would see what I was accomplishing and in what regard I was held would be anxious to do likewise. By such example as the chief official of the city, I am confident Il could influence hundreds of people. “Now, some people may think I can't accomplish anything in this way, but I know I can, I believe there is an awful sight of good in human nature, and that folks are good and kind naturally. As it is now, the rich and the poor are not associates, when they should meet on a common level Every man who is depend- ent on his fellowmen for his success, finan- cial or otherwise, should Interest himself in their affairs and meet them like broth- ers. Those who are below us we must ra.se up through kindness and concern for their welfare, and those who are above us in a worldly way we must bring down by good example. Understand, I do not mean that we must take from the rich their wealth and distribute it among the poor. It isn’t a financial level that I want to see established, but a social level. I thirik that every man who acquires wealth hon- estly is entitled to it. But the rich must stop looking down upon the poor and must instead take an interest in their betterment. Many of the rich are now do- ing this. but all must do it, and just be- cause many are doing it Is the reason I i iy Wit ’ : ; ’ iit i} ‘| ' 7 ; +! ‘? a tH SUNDAY MORNING—ST, LOUIS. “= . a he?

There must be a mutual feeling between them, and in two years’ time as Mayor of this city I think I gould establish such a feeling betweén the twe classes. “And how I'm going to tell you why I believe that whatever is accomplished in Wichita will in time have an effect on the whole country. If I do certain things as Mayor of one of the largest cities in the great State of Kansas, Mayors of other cities will follow the same plan. If the people of Wichita are influenced by what I may do, the people of other cities will be influenced also. In that way the movement wil] gradually spread. If the laboring classes of Wichita prove that by perfect or- ganization they can command higher wages the laboring classes of all the cities In the country will not be slow to follow their example. If Wichita owns its public utili- ties and shows the whole United States that public Ownership is profitable to a muni- cipality and effective in reducing taxation, the idea of public ownership will receive a great boom. “IT am first, last and always in favor of organized labor,’’ continued the prospective Mayor. “It i@the only way under heaven that the laboring men of this country can Protect themselves against the trusts. Op- portunity for labor is being reduced every day by these gigantic combines, and labor- ing Men must do something to save them- selves. “I am just as much in favor of the public ownership of utilities as I am in the Or- ganization of labor. If private corpora- tions can run water works plants and elec- tric ght plants and street railways pro- fitably, why can’t a city do the same? It will give the city a revenue and still fur- nish accommodation to its citizens at a much lower rate. It will serve to reduce taxation, and I want to see Wichita set the example to the whole country of just what ‘tan be done in the way of municipal owner- ship. “I have been asked how I etand on the liquor question, and I have told the men who asked me that if prohibition could be enforced as it should be enforced as a law that I would be in favor of it. But since the prohibitory law has been passed in this State it has beeen proven that it is not a success. I would rather see thie city have respectable saloons which could be kept un- der police surveillance than holes in the walls where our boys could hide themselves away and learn to become drunkards. I was a drunkard myself for eight years, and I know that drink is one of the greatest curses on the face of the earth. My father Was a drunkard before me, and although an old man, I am sorry to say he Is a drunkard still. But people will have liquor as long as liquor is manufactured. and it is better that they should have it openly than any other way. I believe in high l- cense for the saloons, and such a close po- lice inspection that boys will be kept out of such places. I think the majority of drunkards start on their career when young, whereas if liquor had been kept away from them until they were grown their better sense would influence them against giv- ing way to excesses.”’ “T aln’t educated, and I ain't fit to be Gov- — — a ee ee —_— ‘ | ama 7 > 4°64) £9 } et )? tBe ~* , , Sed, s ; Z va - > . -* ; : ™ , , ’ . ’ tle ae 7 ' : Ww 3) } ae 7. ; “ 4 7 i Py ‘ aw (ye. ; » Sige hae a ; ‘ JESSE LYNCH WILLIAMS.

Mr. Williams was at work on a New York evening paper when his first book appeared. Although it was instantly euccessful it was sometime before the other members of the staff discovered the book and the identity of its author. It was the literary editor who finally found him out. Soon after that event, late in 1896, Mr. Williams became connected with the Scrib- ner Publishing Co., by which he is still employed. There he combines the prosaic and the artistic. Four days of the week he toils at ea desk at the company offices. Two days he writes for himself at his apartments and one day he devotes to rest. He is in charge of an important part of the firm's own advertising, preparing advertisements, booklets and press notices. He also has some duties of an editorial nature. In June, 1898, Mr. Willams married Miss Alice Laidlow, daughter of a Wall street. broker. She is a granddaughter of the late Bishop Onderdonk of the Episcopalian Church. Mr. Williams is 28 years old. He is well known to the Princeton colony in 8t. Louls and visits home as frequently as his busl- ness will permit. All of his family live here. His brother, David R. Williams, is in the editorial department of a local news- paper. His father has long been connected with Presbyterian journalism in the West, either as owner or editor, and is the au- thor of several books of history and trav- els. David R. Williams has published a memoir of his father-in-law, the late Rev. James H. Brookes, D. D., the eminent pas- tor of the Washington and Compton Ave- nue Presbyterian Church, St. Louis. Mr. Williams is connected by marriage with several families prominent in &t. Louls and has hundreds of friends who are proud of his success. Besides his books, he is a frequent contributor to Scribner's and Harper’s Magazine, the Youth's Companion and Harper's Round Table. An BPastern critic who has read the proofs of “The Stolen Story and Other Newspaper Stories,” has written this: “Jesse Lynch Williams, whose ‘Princeton Series’ have come to be accepted as the true picture of Princeton life to-day, has written a volume of short stories dealing with the life of a reporter on one of the great dailies under the conditions which modern journalism has made imperative, The author, who has himself had ex peri- ence in newspaper work, has succeeded in setting before the reader vivid pictures of the more striking phases of journalistic life and work as they really are to-day; and his stories are sure to attract atten- tion, both for their truthful pictures of actual conditions and for the delightful manner in which they are told.” OCHA is not alone the name of a M kind of coffee, but also of a port (Yemen) on the Red Sea. The pa- tron saint of both was Sheik Schoedell, whose memory is venerated by the Mahom- etans almost as much as that of Mahomet himself.

The men who blasted the tunnels, the men who put the electric plant in order, who were blindfolded both on entering and leaving the place, still live, and they swear to the magnificence of this modern robbere’ den. That this fortification exists Is recognized by the Governors of three States—Utah, Colorado and Wyoming—in which the band has operated most widely. The path lead- ing to it runs through a narrow canyon and leaves it at a particularly wild and tortu- ous place for a serpentine trail running a mile or more up and down the heights. Again, at the end of this trail, there is a passageway blasted and cut through the solid rock. The termination of this shorter pathway brings the robber to the entrance of the gathering place, which Is nothing less than a great cave or amphitheater in the center of the rock. This is the throneroom of the leader and from this,there run In alj directions tunnels, their openings artfully concealed, so great are the precautions of the band, and their other ends terminating at one or the other sides of the mountain, The most remarkable fact concerning the electric light plant—a fact boasted of by more than one of these robbers in a half drunken mood—is that the wires connect with charges of dynamite at each of the entrances, and that McCarthy, by simply touching a button, could blow @ whole reg!i- ment of soldiers to Kingdom Come. They boast that the explosion of the dynamite in the approach from the west side would close the passage instantly, after which they could either He in the cave with secur- ity or escape from one of the many open- ings and scatter over the country. The fortress is about fifteen miles from a settlement on the edge of the desert called Courthouse, 9 miles northeast of Moab, the county seat of Grand County. From this place the bandits get their supplies. In fact, they almost own the town, and none of the inhabitants have courage sufficient to take action against them. Among the number are many fugitive murderers and escaped conviots, be nt an from Colo- rado, Utah, Wyoming and Nevada. Members of the band have been arrested on various charges, but none of them has ever been punished, for two reasons: Me- Carthy always comes to the rescue of his followers with plenty of money, and some member of the gang usually succeeds in getting on the jury. They d@reses tike cat- tle men and claim to be citizens, and the authorities are powerle** rado and : greater and more than local foe, and the repression of the outlaws was for the time abandoned, Perhaps it was well. In fact, it has been decided by the administration of Utah that the soldiers are not the agency which can combat and overcome the McCarthy bri- gans,. or make the attempt with the best chance of success. The movement of @ body of troops and a military campaign would be too much like an open book to the eyes of this vigilant band, which long ago took precautions against just such & move on the part of outraged justice. Now Utah ‘has decided to expend the sum of $5000 In shooting down McCarthy and the members of his murderous band. The work will be entrusted to fearless men, and the plan will be to pick off McCarthy's follow- ers one by one, as they emerge for gup- plies, rather than to attempt a wholesale onslaught upon their stronghold. It is a hard way to deal with human be- ings, but with McCarthy’s desperadoes all ordinary methods have failed. For some time there has been eae stand- ing reward of $500 offered by the govern- ment of Utah for certain notorious mem- bers of the gang, dead or alive, and more than one has been shot and carried to Salt Lake City. The origin of Tom McCarthy, the bandit leader, is in doubt, but it is known that he is wanted in several parts of the country for crimes of unusual atrocity. His ap- pearance Is anything but prepossessing. He is about 5 feet 6 Inches in height and weighs about 17% pounds. His forehead Is narrow and forbidding and covers deep-set AMUEL M.

EAT would be the bbst site for the World's Fair of 1837? Three sec- Ons, of St. Louis want it—the North, the South and the West. Each claims to offer superior advantages. Why not d'vide the great fair into three sections? This is the suggestion of a read- er of the Sunday Post-Dispatch, who out- lines the following plan: “Let the permanent bulldings—the Art Museum and othera—be placed in Forest Park, as hag been suggested. “Let another section of the fair be located in South St. Louls or Carondelet on the river, at a point to be selected. “Loeate the third section in North St. Louls on the river, on a@ site yet to be chosen. ; “Construet a railroad, beginning at the southern Seotion and running inside the city Umits.to the main falr in Forest Park thence to the branch Im North 8t. Louls. “Each rouna-trip ticket purchased on this railroad should tnclude the right of admis- sion to any or all sections of the fair. Upon entering the first section the admission coupon or ticket would be punched once at the gate; at the second it weuld be punched again and qt the entrance of the third sec- tion it would be taken up. “Or, here is ahother plan: The ratiroad ticket might bear three e¢oupons, one good for admission at Forest Park, one at Ca- rondelet and one at the North &. Louls branch. | “Or, a World’s Fair ticket consisting of three parts might be issued, each being good at a certain section of the fair. Every street and steam railroad in the city will'tap the World's Fair Railroad. Short extensions may be necessary to a few rall- roads. Stops to take en passengers may be made at each section of the World's Fair and at stations where the other roads tap and the World's Fair road and at other conven- lent points. At these outside stations ad- mission tickets for the exposition may be sold with the railroad tickets. By this means the concentration of street and steam railroads at the World’s Fair and an alternate system of transfers may be avoided. Every road in the city will take passengers to the Fair. Those not actually touching the Fair grounds will tap the exposition road. Passengers leaving the Fair may alight at any convenient station and take a street or steam car for down- town. “One of the main reasons for purchasing the Territory of Loulsiana—which event this great fair will commemorate—was that the United States might-gain undisputed possession of the Mississippi! River. In or- der that the river. may be made to figure as prominentiy in the fair as it ought, the two sections of the fair located on the river should be further connected by a line of World’s Fair excursion steamers, “These, leaving the North and South at stated intervals during the day end until a certain hour of the night would give visi- tors a ride of from 12 to 14 miles in front of the city, or 24 or 28 Milles, if they should choose the round trip. “This line of steamers could be owned and operated by the World's Fair manage- ment, or the privilege of establishing such a line could be sold to the highest bidder, thus becoming the source of a great lump gum of revenue. “Concerning tickets the same arrange- gent could be made as with the railroads. Bach World's Fair ticket issued with an excursion ticket would be good at either division of the fair. “This arrangement would bring money to every part of the city. Were the fair to be located in Forest park, for instance, the vVaet majority of visitors would never see anything except the central and western parts of the elty; if it were in Carondelet, very few of them would see our beautiful West End, the picturesque parts of ‘North St. Louls; and so on. If the fair were to be held in Forest park, the millions of visi- tors to St. Louls would remember the city alweys by Forest park and never think of the noble river which is so intimately es- sociated with the purpose of the fair, and which means so much to the commerce and welfare of thig city.

HE life. history of the common er 43 warty toad has been selected for various reasons as the subject of a leaflet in mature study: This history * exceedingly interesting. The marvelous changes passed through in growing from an egg to a toad are so rapid t they may all be seen during a single siring term of : ““ 5 F pond where the eggs were found. Frogs, salamanders and tree toads lay their eggs in the same places and at about the same time ag the toad. The eggs hatch in warm weather in two or three days. As the changes are so very rapid, the eggs ought to be carefully looked at two or three times a day to make sure. that all the principal changes are seen. If a pocket lense or a reading glass is to be had it will add to the interest, as more of the details can be observed. But good, sharp eyes are sufficient if no lens is avail able. Hatching.—Watch and see how long it is before the developing embryos commence te move. Note their. change in form, As they elongate they move more vigorously, till on the second or third day they wrig- gle out of the jelly surrounding them. This is hatching, and they are now free in the water and can swim about. It is eurious to see them hang themselves up on the old egg string or on the edge of the dish. They do this by means of a peculiar V-shaped organ on their heads.. | The toad tadpoles will live for some time in clear water with apparently nothing to eat. This is because the mother toad put into each egg some food. But when the food that the mother supplied is used up the little tadpoles would die if they could not find some food for themselves. They must grow a great deal before they can turn into toads, To feed the tadpoles it is necessary to imitate nature as closely a8 possible. To do this a visit to the pond where the eggs were found will give the clew. Many plants are present, and the bottom will be seen to slope gradually from the shore, The food of the tadpole is the minute plant life on the stones, the surface of the mud or on the outside of the larger plants. Make an artificial pond in a small milk pan or a large basin or earthenware dish. Put some of the mud and stones and small plants in the dish, arranging all to imi- tate the pond—that is, se it will be shal- low on one side and deeper on the other, Pour clear water inte the dish te cem- plete the artificial pond. Then next morn- ing, when all the mud has settled and the water is clear, put 80 or # of the little tad- poles which hatched from the egg string into the artificial pond, Keep this in the light, but not very long at any one time in the sun. y One must not attempt to raise too many tadpoles in the artificial pond or there will not be enough food, and all will be half starved. EXvery week, or oftener, a little of the mud, and, perhaps, a small stone covered with the growth of microscopic plants, anda some water should be taken from the pond th the artificial pond.

The animal must have been 80 feet long an) have stood over 3 feet high. Remember that a big elephané is rarely more than 9 feet high, and you will be aided to con- ceive the appearance of the Atlantosaurus, He fed on the luxuriant foliage of the sub- tropical forests and had claws.on his hind legs. These creatures belonged to the group of Sauropoda, or. lizard-footed Dinosiwrs, which Prof. Marsh says-are nearer to thé _—_ al —_—"a al - rl - a ¢ c . ee ~ : Stegosaurus Ungulatus, or Armor Plated \Lizard, 25 Feet Long, ¢ail and all.

When he had completed .a reconstruction there was no pert of it which was made from mere guosswork, and all was based on sound evi- dence. . An outline may be given of Prof. Marsh's metifods of making these reconstructions, A tow or @ portion of a leg was always @ vateble find. From this he would judge appro:\jmately the size and weight of the animal.’ Jf the bone was large and solid, the anima? was big and slow-moving, prob- ably alsb a yegetarian. If the bone was big, but hollow, then the animal was big, but quiék footed. \1In the neigtborhood of a leg boné there wasJikely to be a footprint, and this would give valuable indications not on¥y of the size, but the habits of the animal. Near the retains of the Bron- tosaurus (thunder lizard) Pref. Marsh found fits footprints, a square yard in extent. . After’ finding a leg it was desirable to have a piece of the backbowe, and, if pos- sible, a morsel of neck and tadl, The size and sha@pe of the backbone infwJlibly indi- cated the ‘size, shape and attitude of the animal,’ Vertebrae that supported an an- imal in @m upright position would. be thick- ened at ‘each end. From the presence of “neural spines’’ on thé.vertebrae of the Siegosaufus (plated lizard), Prof. Marsh proved that this creature had enormous up- fight plaies arranged along its back. Remains of the neck vertebrae invariably crocodiles t ban to any other existing anli- mal. In the same'\ Colorado rocks which held the AtlantosauYrus, Prof. Marsh found the remains of the‘ Megalosaurus, a gigantic fiesh-eating Dino%aur, with saber-like teeth. To another Dinuwaur which he discovered he gave the mame of Ceratosaurus Nasi- cornis, because its nose supported a huge horn. In tne Cretaeeous rocks he found a strange race of ‘mixed bird-like and reptil- ian characteristics, including the huge Hes- peronis and the Ichthyornis. Speaking of them, Prof. Marsh said: “It is now generally admitted by biolv- gists that birds Imve come down to us through the Dirtsaurs, and the close af- finity of the laiter with recent struthious birds (ostrich, e¢c.) will hardly. be ques- tioned. The case: amounts to almost a demonstration if we compare with Dinvu- saurs their contemyvoraries, the Mesozoic birds, The classes of\birds end reptiles, as now living, are separated by a guif so pro- found that a few years since it was cited by the opponents of evvviution.as the most important break in the @nimal series, and one which that doctrine gould not bridge over.

One of Prof. Marsh's most exciting ex- peditions was made in 1874 into the “Bad Lands’ of Dakota. The fossils he was looking for lay north of the White River, in the Indian Reserva- tion. In spite of the warnings of some Indians and the threats of others, Prof. Marsh crossed. the river at midnight, es- corted by Company M of the Second Cav- alry. The stolen march was soon @iscovered, but by means of a forced march they were able to reach the region they were making for.

To throw the specimens into the wagons and rattle off with them unpacked was simply to break them in pleces. To pack them at night, burning lights in the tents, was to invite an attack. Great as was the risk of remaining, Prof. Marsh, after due con- sultation with the officers in command of the escort, decided to stay long enough to pack them properly. The expedition broke camp the next day, and not a day too soon, Subsequentiy reports state that a large party of Northern Indians sounded the Bad Lande. on the following day in a vain seareh for the ‘“‘bone hunting’ chief and his band, who were then en route for New Haven. On his return to the agency Red Cloud was amone the first to welcome Prof. Marsh. Some of the chiefs, to show their zood will, prepared to give a dog feast in his honer, the tender canine being consid- ered by, them a great delicacy; but Prof. Marsh sent his regrets and pieaded a wrevious engagement. About two tons of fossils were secured, and among them some very valuable spéci- mens were obtained, especially the bones of ceFiain ext.net Miocene After his return to civilization Prof. Marsh formulated very definite charges of ma treating wot Bhe Inte Indians against be Secretary he Interior and the Com- rot ind *Afflairs.

By the way, they find gold in the trees and bushes here. Where they hang down into the rivers they act as “‘rifflers” and catch the fine gold. Did I tell you I had gotten some of that very old mall?

But the thaw brought, most unexpectedly, some little birds about the size of sparrows (Dec. 16), about two dozen, I ghould say, and their chirping sounded very pleasant; and as there have been none since I am sure they came to sing to me a little be- cause I felt a,bit blue, I have run across quite a character, Oscar B.

They sell everything from a toothpick or a cut- ter to a fire engine, but will not sell a bit of sugar unless you buy $250 worth of other goods. They are thoroughly hated and would starve a man to get his last nickel. When spring opens and the new stuff be- gins to come in, verily they will have their reward—no one will deal with them then. This climate has been badly traduced. It is strange how many absurd stories people who have been here invent. The win- ter is not bad at all, 18 degrees below zero in St. Louis being worse than 40 below here, and there are more nice days than bad ones, and no wind, Apropos of absurd stories, I was told that there was no snow here, only a kind c® frost rising from the ground. This is not so. There is snow up to your knees, and It falls in the usual way. And about the mosquitoes; they were not so very bad; veiling has to be used occa- sionally, but not often, and the poor mos- quito is blamed when the blame should fall on a smal] gnat with gray and black stripes, which does not sting, but eats out a piece of flesh the size of a pin-head, injects a drop of poison into the orifice and passes on to the next.

There are hundreds of men running up and down the creeks looking for work and finding none. Hundreds are throwing ‘1p “lays”’ on all the creeks and hurrying out of the country. Those who are working nominally for $8 a day are doing so on the bedrock plan. That is, no pay until bedrock is struck, or worse still, until the June wash-up. If there don’t happen to be any pay dirt on bedrock or in the dump the owner will say: “Sorry, you know,” and all that, “but who can see into the ground?’’ f “Human credulity seems to have no bounds,”” said an old “sour dough” (old- time miner) when I told him of the latest wage proposition, which was worse than the above. A “lay” amounts to this: You prospect a man’s claim, build him a cabin, ‘“‘repre- sent’’ his cisim for him ‘saving him $600 to $900 on thut item alone), and give him 50 per cent of the proceeds while shouldcr- ing all ‘the loss in case the claim is no good. Locating the pay streak, if one ex- ists, takes so much time that but little is left to get out pay dirt before your term expires. H. acquired a half interest in an Adams’ gulch claim. “Happiest day of my life!’ he cries; “it’s worth $10,000.

People are not in a “buying humor.” “Two hundred dollars,” says H., te save his $10,000 claim. “Sold,” says the auctioneer and H. steps up and pays $20 commission. Sour dough grins when he hears about it. | “Why,” says I, “was it not e bone fide deal?’’ | “Haw, haw, hew,” says Sour-dough, “the men who bid it up to $195 were ‘boosters.’ There was $20 in it for the House.

Special Correspondence Sunday Post-Dispatch. RS. AUGUSTA SCHMIDT, who is M serving a ten years’ sentence in the Indiana Reformatory for Women, has been offered a parole by Gov. Mount. The offer was declined and the clemency of the Gevernor has been revoked. For several days thé prison authorities pleaded Mrs. Schmidt to ava.l herself of free- dom, but she was steadfast in her refusal. She was sentenced by Judge Kirkpatrick of the Howard County Court in 18% for the alleged murder of Oscar Walton, and, in deciining to leave the reformatory Mrs. Schmidt gave as her reasons that she was innocen: of any intended wrong and that when Judge irkpatrick and the jury which convicted her would admit that she was innocent in a statement to the Gov- ernor, ehe would accept a parole, but if this was not done she would serve out her time. The officers of the State and the .reform- atory say that this Is the only instance in Indiana criminal history where a prisoner has refused to aqenes liberty when it was offered to them. Miss Sarah F. Keely, superintendent of the reformatory, says that Mrs. Schmidt's story is ss peculiar and unusual as her refusal of the Govern- or’s offer. “It was several months ago,"’ Miss Keely says, “that Mrs. Helen Gouger, a charity worker of Layfatte, Ind., found Mrs. Schmidt's husvand and children in a hos- pital there. They were in need of funds as well as the care of the wife and mother. and it was through Mrs. Gouger that the effort was made to procure libert for Mrs. Schmidt. The Reformatory officers recommen¢ »d to the Governor that the parole be issued. Mrs. Schmidt has been a splendid charge. She has attended to her duties, followed the rul- " “**> tneti- ae ’ emerit _- Ss = Convicted of a Crime Which She Claims She Did Not Commit, She Refuses to Leave Prison Until Her Innocence Is Established. “That her family was ill and in« need of help was One argument urged in trying to get Mrs. Schmidt to leave the Reforma- tory, but she still declined to leave the pisses. The officers think her an honest, igh minded woman whose life has been embittered by the thought that she was innocent, but still a prisoner. “Mra. Schmidt was tried at Kokomo for killing Walton. She speaks and writes English with difficulty and declined the services of an interpreter during the trial, which had a tendency to weaken the plea of self defense, which was made for her. Her maiden name was Augusta Crumbine and she was born in Germany in 1548. When 20 years old she came to America, after being strongly urged to do so by a wealthy aunt, Mrs, Christina Hooper, who lived at Kokomo, “The girl's life with her aunt was un- happy. She was compelled to work in the fields and collect rents from her aunt's numerous tenants and the girl, through as- sociation, is said to have acquired from Mrs. Hooper a disagreeable temper. Mrs. Hooper died from lockjaw after stepping” on a ruety nail, and after her death num- erous persons, claiming to be relatives, be- an a legal contest for the fortune of 100,00, which Mrs. Hooper left. “Augusta Crumbine engaged lega) talent and waged a merry war against her op- ponents in the courts. After four years of hard fought litigation she forcibly took possession of Mrs. Hooper's property afd the title to it was afterwards quieted in her favor. But the expenses of the lIiti- gation had caused the original sum for which the girl had fought to dwindle to about 260.000. “There was an air of myste about Mrs. Hooper which was not clear until after her deat One of her closely guarded treasures Was a tin box, the which she declined to mr" niece, or even discuss ~ found. box a*’ FUSES PAROLE the box which showed that at one time she was a German Baroness, and that Augusta Crumbine, too, was a girl of noble German birth. During her life in America Mrs Hooper had been particularly silent on the subject of her ancestry. The docu- ments showed that Mrs. Hooper’s first hus- band was Baron Johann Schingling, of the Province of Zwickan, Saxony. t seems that he and his daughter started for America, but were shipwrecked and drowned in the Atlantic. Further than these points Mrs. Hooper's earlier life is hidden in obscurity. “Early in the eighties Augusta Crum- bine married Charles Schmidt, a well-to- do Cass County farmer. They went to live on his farm near Walton and after a time it was decided to lease the place and re- side in town. The farm was rented by Os- car Walton, the mean whom rs. Schmidt afterwards killed. The division of the crops brought on a quarrel between Mrs. Schmidt and the tenant. It occurred tn the farm house. During her trial Mrs. Schmidt set up the plea that Walton struck her with his fist in the shoulder and was about to do so again waen she shot him. Sire she went to the reformatory Mrs. Schmidt has often complained of pains resulting from the blow administered by Walton.’ The day that the parole was to into effect was a‘giad one for the Schmidt fam- ily at Lafayette. The father and éhildren left the hospital and went to their scantily furnished home. They decorated the place as best they céuld and prepared to give the mother a loyal welcome. While the chil- dren were hanging the decorations, the fa- ther went to learn at what hour Mrs, Schmidt might be expected. Instead of her coming, however, a letter was sent to Mrs, Gouger which sald the prisoner would not stir outside the walls until Judge Kirkpat- rick and the jury admitted they ad wronged her. Afterwards a letter was writ- ten by ye Schmidt to her family in which she said: “My Dear Husband and Children: I want you not to talk to one about me, to any ove in Lafay . lady of th: don’t know duty as 2 e {* © RES Se PAPE RE as MISS EDNA TIDBALL.

The walls are covered with a coating of frost and the green moss and brown logs peeping through all this white give it a jaunty Christmas look which it ‘would be hard to reproduce elsewhere. This is due perhaps to my sys- tem of heating. I adopt the Britany idea, which recommended itself to me while in that part of France, thet of heating one’s self rather than heating a large room. It is also the Indian idea. “Indian make little fire, sit close up; white man make heap big fire, sit far off,”’ they say. Cold storage is not bad after ‘one gets used to it. It is certainly better and more healthful than the other extreme of exces- sive heat and little ventilation. Have just finished Quo Vadis. I like Ben Hur better, I think. It is a more artistic book and more elegant in language. But the length of Quo Vadis suits our long evenings very well. The days are slowly getting longer, they @re now eight hours long instead of two and a half or three. We shall see the sun before many weeks have passed. Dawson is surrounded by mountains and it is two months since old Sol has greeted us. So books are in great demand, the trashy summer novel being as eagerly sought after as books of a higher class. Length is the great desideratum. I ran across an explanation of the universe that is unique; it beats that of Darwin all hollow. It is a combination of chemistry and evolu- tion. According to it, religion is all non- sense, the Bible .cantradicts itself repeated- ly. There was no Creator, but everything had its beginning in chance, was the re- sult of chemical action, of oxidation and reduction, and this just chanced to be so. Oxidation and reduction just started in and evolved everything. ‘“‘In the beginning was a chemical formula,”’ asserted our chemist, “So,” said I, ‘‘the chemical formpla is the highest conception, is it?” “Most decidedly,”” was his reply. S8o, you see, there was no Atlas and no turtle, and no monkey or missing link. The “Klondike widow” is here in large numbers.

There is nothing of mystery in our lives that these laws of “Karma” and ‘‘Re-in- carnation’ do not afford an explanation of. Not that we can (while our own de- velopment is still eo incomplete) give the detalls of every particular event, and show the exact relation of it to the events In a preceding life; but we do know that the relationship exists, for it Is seen by many souls who have advanced far enough to eee those things in their own lives. So those of us who are not yet sufficiently edvanced in our own soul's growth to do this, withre- gard to the details of our own past, can still see, from what these more advanced ones tell ue, how wise and reasonabie such a law is, and can apply ite principles to our own lives, and to the liyes of others, and s0 reach an understanding of the work- ing of such a law; and thus we can help ourselves and others to live by it, and be cheered and encouraged by the comfort it brings. So, In any given case, while we may not khow what was done if a past life to make the passing-on at a certain time neceasary nor precisely the acts in other lives tha have resulted in certain losses, or griefs, or limitations, or in certain opportunities and successes in this one, we do know that all these things are the results of causes set up by ourselves and others in other lives—that all these results, all these vary- ing qualities and characteristics—al] are inwoven threads of the great law of cause and effect—the great law taught by Christ when he eaid, “not a sparrow falls to the ground without your Father’’—and when he likewise said, ‘as ye sow, 60 must ye alse reap." Now, as it is clear enough to the com- monest observation, that many do not reap , What they sow in any one given life, the reaping has been generally supposed to take place either in “heaven” or in “hell,” But Christ's parables and similes were not mattera of fancy. They conveyed illustra- tions complete of their kind, and full of inner meanings. So here, in ¢his one, see how perfect is the analegy, when applied to the law of re-incarnation, Nature's reaping is always dene in the field where the planting was made; and thus it fa in our lives, What we have eowed in the material or physical world, we shall reap in that world; what we sow in the astral world is reaped in the astral world; what we sow in the mental or spiritual worlds, fe reaped in those worlds. So th&t is another Feason why successive physica] lives are necessary—because we are continually set- ting up causes on the physica] plane that can only be worked out on that plane; and then, as so many of them fail to be reaped in the same life in which they were sown. we have to come back toe “settle the account,’’ as it were. Now, you very naturally ask, where do our souls start from, on this long pilgrim- age, and what is the end and object of it? I cannot answer that question fully, with- out going into some very essential points concerning the nature of God and His re- lation to the external, or manifested uni- verse, for this nature and evolution of man is a part both of God and of His universe. But in brief, the answer may be given as follows: Each soul starts as a ray, or epark ef a ray, from God himself. At a certain st when He creates a universe, these rays are sent out, and then they have to pass through many conditions, and through va- rious stages of existence, gathering te themselves these different kinds of ‘“‘world- stuff’ I have tokd you about. And so, by degrees, they come “to know good from evil," and to enter into the very life of God Himself. For His universe is all a part of Him. And it is precisely this that is the end and object of the soul's pilgrimage through all these stages of existence; name- ly that it shall, itseif, become God, having attained to the consciousness and the self- existent Life of the Logos—the one Source of all Life. And, having reached this state of per- fected Belng, what then? Why then, !f we will, we may become Christs, or Savlors of these other souls, which, starting later, at different stages of the evolving worlds, are also on their way to the same goal. This is what Christ did when He “came down from the Father."" He had, during age long eternities in the past probably—before ever this world of our began to evolve— He had gone through all this wonderful process. He had, as it was said of Him, become. “‘perfect through suffering’’—-not the suffering of one life of 3 years only, which would have been a smell matter— but the suffering of the long process of evolution I have tried to give you a mere inkling of. And then, having known all the meaning and the mystery of it—having experienced, in Himself, the pain of esepa- ration from God, through these varying and partial manifestations of Him, He attained to the biiss of union, and became again One with the Father. And then, when souls growing on this world needed a reminder of their origin and their destiny, He again clothed himself in fleshly garments to show them ,ahe way back te God. “Iam the w&y, the Truth and the Life.” He truly said. It was not the crucified one who said this—it was the living Divine Son, already One with the Father, who said it. His “‘sacrifice’’ was in his life, in taking on again the burden of the flesh—not in hig death—which had nothing to do with our salvation. And there are other Great Ones, too, who have passed through this evolution, who have become perfected, and who are now helping the present humanity we be- long to, to understand these truths. These are the Divine Men we call Adepts, who are directing the Theosophical movement, and who are doing great work on all these planes—the physical, the astral, the mental! ang the spiritual parts of this universe. And on all these planes there are lesser helpers, not se far evolved, but still very pure and noble, who devote themselves to teaching souls needing it—ag al) souls do, at different stages of their growth And when those “die” as we call roth ho have GIVEN 7D w« BY A LECTURER IN ST. ip ee PURE DEVOTION To ON NE, Ae 1% DESH cos ee cece poem BE IN HARMONY WITH Connie.

All this has been accomplished since the short line in the shallow water of the English channel was laid tn 1851. Now every nation has swift communication with every other na- tion on the globe. Nearly a score of cables have been laid under waters of the Atlantic. Thirteen of the teen designed te connect the United States with Europe are in success- ful operation. Three others cross the com- paratively narrow sea between Afriag and South America. The Indian Ocean, Red Sea, Mediterranean, entire Afrivan oneast, eastern Asiatic coast and nearly all of that of South America, are all cabled together in one gigantic chain. Even the western coast of the United States has been con- nected with that of the southern continent of the Western Hemisphere. But in erder to communicate with the peoples of the world to the east.

The world travels slowly in the matter of material improvements, in spite of boasts to the contrary. The rapidity of modern development is the result of cy- cles of study and self-absorption.

I have had gome experiences along this Iine that convince me that this proposi- tion is true. IT remember a case that came before me several years ago. A man gued his wife on statutory grounds for a di- vorce. The service was persona} on the defendant, but she did not enter an ap- Pearance. There was something in the gerv- ice return that aroused my suepicions and lL appointed @ young lawyer to Investigate the facts, promising him good fee for hia work. He made the investigation and learned that the wife was confined in an insane asylum, The plaintiff heard of the investigation and never called the case for trial, It was dismissed for want of prose- eution. He had come into court with his petition, knowing that his wife was not in a fit condition to defend it. He knew his case would be put on the defanit docket and he hoped to precure a divorce on his own prejudiced showing. The investiga- tion balked bis scheme. “I recall another case shewing the im- portanee of a therough Investigation in ex parte cases. A husband sued his wife for a divorce on the ground that she had de- serted him. The case was placed on the default decket and, when it came up for hearing, the plaintiff and his mether testi- fled that he had not quarreled with his wife or had any trouble of any kind with her, but that she left suddenly without any cause. The character of the evidence did not sult me and I continued the case two weeks. Meanwhile, I caused an attorney to make an tmvestigation of the facts, which revealed that the defendant had left the piaintif? because he had beaten her very severeiy. I refused the divorce. I could enumerate a hundred cases of this char- acter in which investigations have proved to me that divorces were not merited. If investigation has worked so well in a few cases, will it not work in all? “In 1865, the General Assembly of Mis. souri passed a law, prohibiting divorced persons from marrying within three years aiter the decree of the court had been en- tered, unless the court should permit them to do so by a especial order. This law was repealed in 1885. But notwithstanding the opposition of the General Assemb.y, I am in favor of this law and believe it should be re-enacted. It wou.d be a galutary re- striction on divorce licenses and would keep many men and women out of court who seek to have the healing balm of a legal feeparation applied to their domestic wounds, The motive whigh actuates many applicants for a divorce is the wish to rid themselves af existing ailiances that they may contract others. I have known many gases where men and women have gone fiirectly from the court room where 4di- vorces had been granted them to the mar- riage license office to obtain the formal permission of the law to enter other matri- monial relations. “But if such a proceeding were impos- sible; if divorced persons were compelled by law to wait three years before again re- suming marital obligations, the dreary grind of the divorce mill would be con- Siderably lessened every year. Let the motive be removed and the desire to in- dulge in the luxury of a divorce wilt be ee os = R . @ only changes that our divorce w needs are those which I have sug : at With thorough investigations provided for in default cases and a provision prohibit- ing divorced persons from marrying within three years after the decree of divorce is granted, the divorce question would be prac- tically solved.

But these are only exceptions. At a rule, an incampatibility of temper is responsible for the divorce proceeding. It may be covered by alliegatioms of desertion, cruelty and mon-support. And, if the parties at the beginning of their disagreements had only nestied more closely to each other instead of drawing more widelyyapart as the days went by, the unhappy denovement of the divorce petition would never have followed and their domestic happiness would have been preserved with all its early charms and pleasures “I shaiji not attempt to fix the responet- bility for domestic disagreements in the majority of cases. Sometimes it belongs to the wife; sometimes to the husband. Perhaps, as wives file two-thirde of the divorce cases, I should say that husbands are responsible for two-thirds of the marital discord. But I shall not. “Disagreements in a home may begin with the wife and culminate with wrong conduct on the husband's part. It rarely, if ever, happens that the wife is wholly to blame; and the husband is not always the guilty party. Both are responsible for the mommy sl condition, because neither has treated the other with the proper con- sideration and been animated by a spirit of forbearance and charity.” DRAWN FROM LIFE, AIDED BY PHOTOSRAPH.

But the defendant, ignoring her condition, re- fused to provide her with an attendant, al- though he was amply able to do so, telling her that, if she could not put up with what assistance he could give her, she might rot and go to hell.

Lyman against George F,. Lyman, which was heard in Judge Flit- craft’s court a month ago. A remarkable feature of this case was that the plaintiff, Mrs. Lyman, played a secondary part in the drama of domestic happiness of which her home was the thea- ter; and at the trial but little evidence was submitted concerning the relations between her and her husband. Her name appears only a few times in the record of the pro- ceedings.

With the com- bination of money to spend and time to Bpend it in, it is not strange that the Sun- day audiences should be large. Out of 700,000 people in St. Louis some 25,000 are members of the various Protestant Evan- gelical Churches. Multiply this number of church members by four to include mem- bers of their families and we have still 600,000 people who have no church connec- tion and are free to eeek recreation accord- ing to their Inclinations. I do not include Catholics among the non-theater-goers on Sunday, because as a rule there is no ob- jection made to their seeking orderly recre- ation, provided they attend to their re- ligious duties earlier in the dey. These theater audiences are not composed of members of the Protestant congregations, In 690,000 people there is plenty of materia to fill the theatere. “To say that one of these elements should occupy the whole of Sunday seems to me to defeat the very purpose of the Sabbath. which, as the Scriptures say, was made for man and not man-for the Sab- bath. Change of thought is necessary as well as worship. What constitutes this mental rest or change of thought Is left to each man’s conscience to determine. Sometimes recreation rests the mind more than anything else. Thousands of men from Monday morning to Saturday night have no time for recreation. After a hard day's work a man must go early to bed in order to recuperate for the morrow. If denied recreation on his only day of rest one essential element is cut out of his life. When persons are so situated that they can take such recreation any after- noon or évening I should think they would not care to take it on Sunday, or If they did thetr cornsciencés would hurt them. “As Peter says. “To him that thinketh a thing je sin, to bun it is sin.” there can be no cast-iron rule applied to all alike.

He said: “Certainly more people go to the theater on Sunday than on any other day. More people go to saloons andother abodes of the devil_on Sunday than on week days. That is because when men or women are idle they go hellwards faster than when they are busy. I have studied the theater ques- tion in every country in the world except Australia—not from an interior view, ex- cept in this country, but very closely. There are many kinds of theaters. Bome are open- ly and notoriously vicious, and others are intended to be not only harmless but uplift- ing. The trouble with those that are well meant is that they never pay expenses. Again, the man that goes to one kind of a theater will @o to another. A young man will pfck out a good, clean show to take his eweetheart to, provided he intends to marry her, but when she isn’t with him she goes to the other kind. “I know what I am talking about, for 1 have been traveling on terra firma and not in the clouds during my career. 1 have been ef the world and I know it.

I don’t know what percentage could go on other evenings, but a large a am not one of those rer probably. I leve the church existence was almost unknown. Theater- going is not a Christian way of spending the Bapbath, but I object as a citizen be- cause it Is unlawful and because I belleve that as a people we would be the better for a stricter observance of the Sabbath. “France tried to dispense with a Sab- bath, but was forced to return to it as a political necessity. The Sabbath is a God- given institution. Its proper observance is attended with blessings; the violation with curses. The ministers of this city and other cities received circulars recently from a na- tional association of actors asking us to use our efforts to close the theaters on Sun- day. They asked this not on moral or re- ligious grounds, pat in order that they might have a weekly day of rest. The mat- ter was referred to a committee, and at fast Monday's meeting of the Protestant Pas- tors’ Association, the Chairman of the committee asked for more time. He sald he had consulted a lawyer, who told him the existing laws were strong enough to close the theaters on Sunday if enforced.”’ REV. F. W. COBNELL of Holy Inno- cents (Episcopal) Church gatd: “I am not prepared to give a reason why so many persons go to places of amusement on Sun- day except in a general way that it is re- garded as a holiday by a great many per- sons and a large number of these believe there is no harm in innocent diversion on that day. As for myself, I do not object to euch things, provided they do not in- terferé with duties, and the amusement is harmiess. There is one side to the ques- tion, however, that makes it doubtful whether the Sunday theater should he per- mitt to exist. hat is the necessity it ma for all persons connected with the theater to lose their day of rest. It ts not right that pity er sixty persons should deprived of their holiday ause 0 or any Other number desire to be used. The actor doesn’t want to work en Sunday.

He is now living in Chica- go, is a millionaire and sv0» sca Huntington, Leland Stanford and the Crockers, the prespectors and builders of the great Union and Centra) Pacific rail- road lines. There were large financial] op- erations in connection with these roads, in which Durkee took part. A little his- tory of these transactions is necessary here. The construction of these lines was un- dertaken by private capital In the year 1900. A few hundred miles of road were bullt, and then the promoters came to the end of their means and credit The bonds with wh.ch they had paid contractors and which they offered to raise money for fur- ther construction went begging at 15 cents on’ the dollar. The promoters went to Washington and asked Congress for help. In’ 1862 an act was passed and its terms were these: United States bonds to the amount of $16,- 000 were to be issued and paid to the rail- road companies for each mile of road com- pleted. These were 30-year 6 per cent bonds. They conctituted a mortgage on the roads. The act permitted the companies to is- sue an egral amount of their own bonds, which would be a prior and paramount lien to the Government's loan. That is to say, the company’s issue was a first mort- gage and the Government's issue a second mortgage upon the lines. The companies were bound by two con- ditions. First. to settle up all existing bonded or floating debt, and second to is- gue their prior and paramount lien bonds ‘Only as of “even amount, tenor, date and time of maturity”’ as those issued by the United States. In compliance with these conditions, Gov. Durkee, acting for himself and others, bought up and held outstanding construc- tion bonds of the railroad companies. For these he was to receive the company’s “prior and paramount’ bonds. He did re- ceivo them, practically to the amount of the entire issue. The amount actually held by him at the time of the ccmpletion of the roads, in 1869, was $64,623,512. a director in several banks and corporations. He may be called to testify in the Durkee sult. When Gov. ‘Durkee died, in 1870, all these bonds were in the possession of the Metro- politan Nationa] Bank of New York. -He told his wife on his deathbed of his having given these bonds, in a tin box, into the custody of the bank. The box was found in the bank, but it was empty. Al] trace of the bonds wae lost for fourteen years. After the Grant & Ward crash the Metro- politan Bank went down, in 1834. Its af- fairs come into the hands of the Comp- troller of the Currency. Charles J. Folger was then Secretary of the Treasury and Willlam Lawrence was Comptroller. They discovered among the bank’s assets the whole of these Durkee bonds. They had been pledged by the Metropolitan Bank to secure ite own loans, but Mr. Folger ob- tained evidence of the actual] ownership of the securities and recovered them. Frank Head, the administrator of the estate of Durkee, meanwhile had settled ti and filed his final accounts. Mr. Durkee’s widow hed obtained about $15,000 as her full settlement of her share in the pro- ceeds in the estates of her supposed-to-be- millionaire husband. Her children had re- ceived amounts in like proportion. Legacies of large sums to educational and charitable purposes were, of course, unpaid, for there was no money to pay. The legacies, how- ever, show that Durkee believed himself to be rich. Leonard C. Blaisdell of Champaign, I1., whose wife was one of Durkee’s heirs, went to Washington and had an interview with Secretary Folger, Comptroller Law- rence and other treasury officials, concern- ing the recovery, by Durkee’s heirs, of the securities. The secretary told him that the bonds without doubt were the lawful prop- erty of the Durkee family. It remained only, so Mr. Folger tdla Mr. Blaisdell. for him to present a power of at- torney for all the heirs and the bonds would be delivered, Mr. Blaisdell set about getting the au- authorization. While he was so engaged Mr. Folger went out of office. When Blais- dell presented himself at the United States Treasury to claim the bonds no trace of the securities could be found. They had vanished. Nor have they ever been dis- covered since. None has been offered in the public markets, Securities of a par value of $64.000.000 had been swallowed up in some unknown gulf. The treasury officials could give no expila- nation. Doubt was even raised as to the fact that the bonds ever existed. The court of claims was appealed to by Mr. Blaisdell, who has died since the filing of the suit, in 1893. M built by Huntington, Crocker, Stanford and others, with Durkee’s help—the Union Pacific, Centra] Pacific, Western Pacific, Kansas Pacific, Central Branch and Sioux City & Pacific—had be- come the Union and Central Pacific system. The time for settling with the Government began to loom up. . The disappearance of the Durkee bonds, if they should remain lost, would profit to the extent of principal and accrued interest, the companies on whose property they were a first mortgage, and hence to the holders of other and “junior’ bonds and shares. It Is alleged by the Durkee heirs that oer- tain treasury employes and officials, who left the Government soor after the disap- pearance of the Durkee bonds, became rich men in their homes tn @‘fferent parts of the country. It is asserted by Mr. C. A. Nimocks of Minneapolis, an expert accountant, who has gone over the treasury records In thls case of the Durkee heirs, that the bonds found their way Into the hards of persons heavily interested in the Pacific railway companies, and that the persons who as- sisted tn this “recovery” were rewarded for that important service. Mr. Nimocks discovered In his investiga- tion that another issue of bonds, purport- ing to be the “prior and paramount lien” upon the Pacific railroads, was in exist- ence. As Mr. Nimocks puts it, “The com- panies, having ascertained that these Dur- kee bonds were missing, have undertaken to palm off on the public an issue of bonds amounting to nearly $100,000,000, which are entirely different from the bonds author- CHAPTER Ill. BANWHILBE the group of railroads ized."" The fact appears to be that the “other” bonds were issued long before this time. The amount is very much too large, for the sum of these bonds could be, under the act, mo greater than that of the second mortgage issue of the United States. Their Gates differ from the dates of the United States issue, contrary, to the provisions of the same act of 1862. The time of maturity also differs. Moreover, this issue consists of coupon bonds. To be of “even tenor’ with the United States act authorizing them, these bonds should be registered like the United States issue, These facts, Nimocks says, were wéll known to Attorney-Genéral McKenna in 1897, during the foreclosure of the mort- gages on the Pacific railroads at Omaha. The Attorney-General, in referring to these bonds, stated that they were the original “prior and paramount lien’’ bonds, and he added that the owners of the “prior and paramount lien” bonds must be ascertained and paid off. J. Pierpont Morgam, three years before this, had brought suit at Omaha in the United States Court, as the holder of this new issue, to foreclose their mortgage in the Pacific roads. He was non-suited for the same reason advanced. by the Attorney- General In the later suit; that is, that Mr. Morgan's holdings were not the “prior and Daramount lien,” because they did not an- swer the description in any way. Other evidence against the status of these bonds was discovered by the Ireasurw De- partment itself. The acts of Congress re- quiring the Secretary of the Treasury to purchase the bonds of these companies to be set aside for a sinking fund, he bought a large number of the securities, purport- ing to be of the “prior and paramount lien” issue. He discovered that there had been an overissue in the several series of these bonds; that their total, as shown by the numbers on the bonds themgelves, was greater than the act authorized, viz., $16,- 000 per mile of road for the particular branches built. For instance, the issue for one branch might be $2,000,000; that would be two thousand $1000 bonds. If he got a bond numbered 008 the Secretary of the Treasury held that the bond colud not be valid. When this was discovered the Treagury Department got out of that part of the difficulty tn a peculiar manner. If the overissued bonds which he held were unauthorized, they were worthless. Never- thelemas the Treasury officials kept that knowledge to themselves and sent the doubtful numbered bonds back to the sub- treasury in New York with orders that they te marketed and sold. This was done. The |Treasury Departmen. made another peculiar discovery about these so-called “prior and paramount” bonds. In the bedy or text of the bond appeared the words “payable in lawful money of the Unite States,’’ Stamped upon the face with a rubber stamp appeared the words “interest payable in gold.” Jyst ahead of these words the words “principal and” had been printed with another rubber stamp in ink of an- other color and at a subsequent time. Al- together it read “principal and interest pay- able in gold.” On tee back ef the bonds, printed tn an irregular manner, was the legend, ‘These bonds |are a prior and a paramount lien to that of the United States.” This was evidently added after the bonds were origi- nally printed. If they actually were a prior and paramount Men, it is reasonable to as- sume, in Mr. Nimocks’ opinion, that ‘ths fact would be set forth tn the original text of the, bonds. If a note of hand Is ajtered or chal ged It becomes invalid, and it is the contention of Mr. Nimocks that this rule applies to these bonds and that they ac- tually jare worthless and fraudulent, At all events, there has been a large quantity of these bonds in the Treasury of the United States, held as a sinking fund, |bought at their supposed market value with the public money. These bonds pa‘'d interest semi-annually. Other bonds to the amount of about $26,000,000—that its the amount of the overissue above the $64,- 000,000 authorized by Congress—have been in the hands of private investors, They were retired under recent reorganizations. They seem to have passed current for what they are represented to be. Very strange thing. No Secretary of the Treasury ever thought it expedient to request the Attor- ney-General to pass upon the legality and validity of these bonds, when the fact that they were not what they purported to De was known and contended by the head of the department of justice. x MP CHAPTER til.

But tn all the domatl prudence perhaps no of criminal juris- ter intensity of , realism was ever attained than in a case at Memphis, Tenn., about ten years ago. The body of Mrs. Mary Person was found in the back garden of her suburban home. There was a hole in the temple ang a pistol by her side, one barre] discharged. Neighbors had heard a shot shortly after midnight. The husband and children testi- fied that Mrs. Person had retired early the might before and was not missed till day- light. The surface facts indicated suicide and the coroner eo deciared it. An observant reporter not.ced that while the ground everywhere was muddy. as was the gown of the dead body, the soles of the feet were as clean as though fresh from the bath. He argued that the woman was killed in the house and the body carried to where ii was found. On this information the Attorney General cf ~ Geor wor were two exterior wounds, cone made by a pisto] ball. The other might have been the point of exit. But this, it was contended by the prosecuticn, had been produced by a blow, wh.ch had fractured the skull and caused death, the pistol ball having been fired Into the skull after the body had been placed in the garden, to give the appearance of suicide. There were no powder burns, such as is almost invariably the case in suicide by shcvoting. A smal) iron bar, used as a paper weight, was missing from its usual place on the desk of the accused. Person was indicted for murder in the ‘irst degree. He employed eminent counsel and the trial was a highly interesting battle of legal talent and medical experts. The defense’a theory was that the pistol ball had fractured the skull and caused death. But the post-mortem showed, not only an extensive fracture of the skull, but fractures generally of the nasal and other smal) facial bones, Experts for the State contended that a pisto) ball would merely bere a smal! hole in its paseage and could not produce such extensive fractures. The first bit of ealism was the introduc- tion of the top of the woman's skull as evidence. Then followed some of the most remark- able experiments ever made in search of evidence to substantiate theories. “Bodies of pau ers and hospital patients were pro- cured : nd experts banged ‘away at their skulls. afterward notir ~~ % | eS SS ‘nsive 1eans. rmly to test the powder burn theory.

By George P. Holmes, D. D. &. | | vo the mother must naturally de- volves the duty of caring for the teeth of children, and upon the care she bestows depends, in a great measure, the future health of the child's teeth. Between the ages of 6 months and 2 years, the. period of first dentition, decay seldom oecurs. From the time of their erup- tion baby’s teeth should be kept clean by the use of the fingers or a soft cloth. From this early care the child will come to reward cleansing the teeth a necessity. Disease of the gums will follow neglect. After the age of 2 years the teeth should be examined regularly by a dentist for cav- ities. The first teeth are as important for mas- tication as the second. With bad teeth the child will swallow its food without suffi- clent mastication. For the adult clealiness is the most im- portant item in preserving the teeth. The loss of teeth by disease of the gums is mostly brought on by neglect of cleanli- ness, which allows tartar to accumulate and is the cause of loss of as many teeth as decay. Such accumulations engender dis- eases of the gums. One of the firet symp- toms of such disease that will be recog- nized is bleeding. A heaithy gum will not bleed from the use of the brush. Tartar is a precipitate from the saliva, and can only be kept off by vigorous use of the brush as it gathers from day to day. If not removed, it gradually hardene and works beneath the free margin of the gums, inducing inflammation. of the soft surround- ing tissues. If allowed to continue the ieeth will begin to loosen and be lost ultimately, perhaps, without a derhy. The dsease around the teeth may be a slight gingivitis or perricementitis or more virulent pyor- rhea alveolaris. The competent dentist can successfully treat such-diseases, except it be the latter in an advanced stage. All other diseases of the teeth readily yield to treatment by the competent dentist, he extraction of teeth is seldom neces- sary. The dentist who extracts many teeth nowadays must lack the skill to save or de- Sire from mercenary motives. In closing this short article I must again refer to the importance of cleanlinees. If the mouths of the people were promptly and intelli- Bently cared for, all carious and diseased - teeth taken care of or removed and the proper use of the brush, accompanied with antiseptic solution, I do not doubt the per- cetage of diseases would be very material- ly reduced, The temperature of the mouth being al- ways high, the accumulations around the teeth supply the culture media and provide for the propagation of bacter.al germs of all kinds. , e “no * » a’ Ah ec SPRING FEVER. By Dr. Otto Sutter. This is the season for spring fever to manifest itself. This is a disease that is due entirely to climatic changes, and there is only one thing that is needed to drive it from the system. That is exercise—brisk and lots of it. When the sun shines out brightly and it is warm and pleasant, after the cold of winter, a feeling of lassitude almost al- Ways attacks people. One is not sick, but he has “that tired feeling’ until his bones fairly ache. The first thought is that he needs something in the medical line. But he does not. Get out and take a long, vig- orous walk, or do something else and keep it up until the perspiration comes from the pores. Don't stop there. Keep on until you become tired in reality, and then when you get rested you will find that the spring fever has departed. TOBACCO HEART. By Dr. F.*L. Deck. HE disease known as “tobacco heart” ih ie on the increase. A pecullar fact about this malady is that it is not necessarily accompanied by a sick stomach, as is generally supposed. The person who smokes his first cigar or indulges in the first chew of tobacco is invariably over- come by a cardiac depression. Muscular relaxation or weakness sets in and perspira- tion follows. But tobacco heart is not due to a eingle over-jndulgence, but by the habitual use of tobacco to the utmost limit of tolerance. The effect upon the heart is to cause a condition of irregularity, the heart skipping a beat from six to 10 or more per minute. Occasionally the victim is subject to faint- ing spells and complete physical prostra- tion. If the case is not too far advanced atrophine acts as a potent remedy. This drug should never be used except on the udvice of an experienced physician, as it contains the most dangerous ingredients. DRY FEET. By Dr. W. F. Francis. K EEPING the feet dry during the rainy spring season, though an im- portant adjunct to health, is often extremely difficult. Many persons dislike to Wear overshoes. I Knew an old physicia®%: whose footgear always had a fine polish, even in rainy weather, end were impervious to the water. Hi's plan was this: He melted one pound each of rosin and tallow together. While the mixture was still hot he applied to his shoes with a paint brush After this coating had dried. a day or two later, he mixed once ounce of mellid beeswax and a tablespoonful of turpentine and lampblack. This he applied to the shoes. It guve them a fine patent leather polish, which the heaviest rain could not spoll, and also made them im- pervious to water. INFECTION. By Dr. T. A. Martin.

The healthy person cannot be too vigilant in withholding himself from contact with those diseases that are known as ‘‘catch- ing.”” He will contract them in nine cases out of 10, where his less healthy fellow will not be troubled by them. is CONCERNING TEETH. By Dr. W. T. Murray. ISBASES which profoundly affect T) nutrition, influence the development of the teeth. Since the growth of the teeth is mainly limited to the age of childhood, their condition is especially in- fluenced by children's diseases. Faulty nu- trition, or severe wasting illness, show themselves nowhere more prominently than in the development of the bones and teeth. On the other hand, good health in children plays a very important part in producing a healthful and robust manhood, or woman- hood. Decaying and loosened teeth directly favor imperfect mastication and conse- quent indigestion. Indigestion favors poor nutrition. It causes the secretions of the mouth to be- come acid in reactlon—perversion of the normal reaction of the galiva, which at- tacks the teeth and favors rapid decay. Care shguld be exercised in the selection of children’s food, but in order to insure to children a healthy bodily developme and protect them from the evils of seffise- quent attacks of indigestion, there must be something more than a correction of their diet. The teeth should be filled. This guards agatnet disease of the alveolar pro- cess. or the bony portion of the jaw, into which the rooc of the teeth are inserted, against an unsymmetrical growth of the ja itseif, and against. an involvement of thaf second toeoth, just developing beneath first.

Rigors occurring later in the course of the disease generally indicate further complications at the out- set of suppuration or festering. The pulse, during the acute stage, is swift and bounding, but soon weakens. When suppuration has occurred and the strength is greatly reduced, the pulse ‘s smal] and thready and perspiration profuse. | In cases in which the nervous centers afte involved early the pulse and respiration be- come irregular and the patient is usually delirious by the second or third. Whether the part attacked be the larynx, the pharynx or the cellular tissue of the neck. the first symptom complained of Is sudden pain in the throat and difficulty in swallowing. This, in a few hours, may re- sult in complete dysphagia, or inability to swallow. In the great the majority of cases DEATH pharynx is the first part affected, and par- Ucularly the tonsils, the latter, by their shape, forming a natural port of entry of the infesting micro-organ'sms into the body. When the tonsils are primarily affected the inflammation differs very little from acuet follicular tonsillitis. Inthecase of the pharynx rapid swelling occurs, and the uvula—the little red lobe pendent from the soft palate in the back of the mouth—may be greatly elongated and thickened to the size of te little finger. The swelling is often distinguished by a bluish discoloration. After a few days, if suppuration does not set in, the swelling subsides, leaving the mucous membrane wrinkled. But the in- flammation may spread down to the larynx. Sometimes, but rarely, it extends upward to the nasal passages, and even to the membranes of the brain. In the majority of cases of septic pharyn- gitis the inflammatory process leave the pharynx in a few hours or days and ex- tends downwards to the tarnyx. The epiglottis is generally most markedly affected, becoming enormously swollen and turban shaped, so that by simply depress- ing the tongue it may often be seen as a semi-transparent scarlet or bluish-red roll, In such cases the voice at first {8 weak and hoarse, In a day or two, or even in a few hours, complete aphonia..or loss of voice, BY FE may result. narrowed t may suffer immediate c incision from Unless the erysipelas, th sical signs ms grave nature. easily be mista pharyngitis; be constitutional 4d. of delirium, and of oedema of tl put one on his gt the lymphatie ve with other manif tion, should leav the cage is one 0 teriological exam ed will reveal th: in the individual ease.

The doctors say he is afflicted with neu- resthenla in mild form. He complains of nervousness, though he sleeps well and his appetite is unimpaired. In fact, he consumes twice the food of an ordinary patient. His weakness was shown in a test with Tarry Whelan, an attendant at the hos- pital. A short roller towel was secured. One end was thrown over Burris’ head. Whelan pulled at one end and Burris resist- ed at the other. In 26 seconds Whelan, who is a pigmy beside Burris, had overcome his opponent and had pulled him the length of the ward, a distance of BD feet. Though a little man, with no unusual muscle, the attendant was fresh after the effort, while Burris was thoroughly fa.. tigued.

Kohler, in which was involved the transfer of parts of a living rabbit's eyes to the blind sockets of the girl, has been pronounced a success, and it is believed the girl’s sight will be restored. She had been blind in one eye for 15 years, and totally blind for six years. The transference of the eye of an ‘ani- mal to the socket of a human being to re- store sight has been one of the dreams of surgery. As for as appearances go the operation has been successfully performed a number of times; the eye—usually that of a rabbit—grew into place, and t mus- cles united, but never was the patient able to see. It was a better substitute than a glass eye, but of no more use as far as vision goes. The optic nerve of the hu- man being and the animal refuse to make practical connection. In the case of Dr. Kohler’s patient it was not necessary to substitute the whole of the rabbit’s eye. The patient, a young woman about 30 years old, whose home is in North Dakota, lost the sight of one eye 15 years ugo. Soon after the other eye was attacked sympathetically. Every effort was made to arrest the progress of the disease, but without avail, and six years ago the young woman resigned herself to absolute and, as the doctors told her, hopeless blindness. When Dr. Kvuhler resolved on the des- perate expedient of the rabbit's eye he called in a number of other physicians and surgeons and asked them for their views.

Phre- nology and physiognomy have now many younger rivals to contend with, such as scarpology, or divination by shoes; kleck- sography, or divination by ink; busco- mancy. or divination by cheeks and mouth, and pedomancy, divination by the feet. The London professors of these occult sciences complain that business is not so brisk as might be wished. Londoners, they say, are very conservative, even in the way they like their “characters” told. E-spe- cially are the professors of foot reading loud in their grumbling. It may be that people fight shy at pay- ing for having the soles of their feet tickled. Anyhow, pedomancy, whatever the cause, is not making the strides that might be expected. It has a limit in its progress, so to speak; but other “‘ancies” and “ographies’’ are doing better.

It ts severe! years since the late Alezender Hermann appeared in St. Loulea and this will be the Grst appearance of his widow and nephew who have succeeded him in the line of mystic entertainment. The nephew is Leon Hermann who came ever from Burope efter his uncle died and since then has met with marked success. He is said to be much like the original Hermann in person and mannerisms and to be equally expert in sleight of hand and as a wit. Adelaide, the widow, is well known here as a dancer and as her late husband's assistant. She has @ lot of new terpsichorean devices and also appears as a magician, the only one of her sex to attempt that line of work. In “A Night in Japan” she appears in Oriental costume and is said to perform many mar- vellous feats. What is regarded as her most wonderful feat is a transformation fire scene in which a withered old hag re- covers her beauty by the aid of fire. The idea is taken from Rider Haggard'’s ‘‘Bhe.” At the Olympic this week, beginning to- night,,a company of Bavarian peasants, called the Tegerneler, wil] be the attraction. They give reproductions of life in the Al- pine country, sing, dance and make merry. Persons who have seen the show describe it as very interesting. There ig a group of pretty Bavarian girls in the chorus, a view of whom is said to be worth the price of admission, whether a man understands Ger- man or not, Members of the cast mentioned in the advance notices are Fraulein Kathi Baader, Herr Ben Gtass, Herr Sachsehe, Herr Busch and the two sisters Meyerhofer. A majority of Grand Opera House pat- rons decided about two weeks ago that there should be a second production of “An Enemy to the King,’’ the most pretentious @ season made his reputation as a valuable stock The offering of the Grand’s season. Manager Giffen agreed to grant that request Haster week, and Sothern’s great romantic drama, to which the stock artists of the Grand gave such a charming interpretation, will be on view again this afternoon and evening and during the week. The new member of the stock who comes to take the place of George Denham, Mr. Horace Lewis, will appear in the role of Blaise Tripault, a fol- lower of the Sieur de la Tournoire. Mr. Lewis is a character actor who just closed with “The Last Chapter.” He man with the Castle Square Theater Co. at Boston. .The manner of the Grand Opera House's presentation of “An Enemy to the King” made it the most extravagant stock production given in the country this season. As much money was spent for costumes and scenery, it is claimed, as Mr. Sothern used in staging the play for its original production and road season. An anouncement that will interest all pa- trons of the Grand is that on the evening of April 10 a benefit will be tendered to Master Willie Schaefer, the smallest, bright- est and youngest person that ever sold tickeis through a bex office window. , The Easter week attraction at the Impe- rial is ““Moths,”’ from Ouida’s novel of the same name, The piece has not heen seen in St. Lanuis since the first week of last sea- son, when Jannoppule & Gumperts toek the Imperial. Manager Lyons claims that he has secured the best version extant, and that means a good deal for a story like “Moths."’ The plot deals with a young gir! who has been religiously brought up, but at the age of 16 falls into the hands of a worldly mother. She has many admirers. The favored one is Correze, a singer. but the mother marries the girl to Prinee Zour- off. a boulevardier of the worst tyne.

The Prince is killed outright and Jack mor- tally wounded. As he lies dying he places the hands of the lovers together and passes away happily. Malcolm Williams is cast as the singer and Lawrence Hanley as the courageous, self-sacrificing Jura, who dies happy in the thought that he has done one good deed. Frank Losce ought to add to his laurels as the Prince. Malcolm Will- flams has a good comedy part, and Miss Elmore will play the breezy American girl. Mrs. Radcliffe is assigned to Vere, which has been essayed by so many actresses with indifferent success. Miss Reed plays the mistress of Zouroff and Miss Block the worldly mother. “Michael Strogoft’’ fol- ‘ows. ——— The Columbia will introduce as its feature for thie week the character comedian, Felix Morris, so well known for his prominent share in the successes of the late Rosina Vokes, presenting a new little sketch, “The Vagabond.” The vagabond is an old friend so familiar in stage the touchingly honest type of man gone to seed through drink, & brother of Trow- cause of the magnitude of J.

He gaid: “The mere facta ag given are about right, but there is another side to the story.

I knew that they would it out and reconsider, so I determined to anticipate. Immediately I dispatched an- nouncements of my benefit to the newe- papers, made what arrangements I might and proceeded to the theater. The holl- day had been discovered and the managers informed me that my benefit date would be| changed. I replied that I should hold them to their previously written notifica- tidy and that I should eue for my share ofjany other performance given upon the night in questien, Then they capitulated. I put on ‘The Octoroon,’ in which I ad been highly successful, aud played to a crowded house, After that Saturday night benefits were regular things, but nearly alj fared badly, except notably Mrs. Chan- frau, whose husband, then starring, came to, play for her and drew an immense audience. This I mention as it related to the introduction of Saturday matinees in our first-class theaters. Not long afters warde another etraw was laid on the camel's back by the inauguration of Wednesday matinees and the salaries were nat increased. "Wallack’s old theater was built origi- nally for John Brougham and opened as Brougham’s Lyveum without success. Managers Corbyn and Buckland took it then and failed also. In 1853, the elder Wal- la¢k began the management of the theater and established what I believe to have been the best stock comedy company ever known in| America, ingluding, besides Brougham and my father,*William Rufue Blake, Les- ter Wallack, George Holland, Laura Keene, Mary Gannon and Mrs. Vernon. It is my opinion that, all things considered, Wallack house in Ninth street. and my father and then paid the highest salaries in the history I paid the same price for a house in Wa- Ss companies 1% tam se ae verly place.

Now they cost 2 cents. The best liquors cost about one-third of their present price. “Brougham’s salary was $75 a week, my father’s was $100, paid in the gold of ante- bellum days, and each received two benefits a@ season, getting half of the gross takings on these occasions. The theater, when crowded, held $700, prices being 60 and 2% cents. Now managers have quadrupled the prices, but where is the stock actor of this day who gets four times the salaries I have mentioned? Present salaries are not larger when comparisons are complete. One could ive as well then on any given sum as one can on four times that sum to-day. Then, too, Wallack’s season was of @ weeks, from September to June. Now a stock sea- son se.dom is longer than: six months or involves travel that was impossible then. “Consider aiso the fact that many stock actors wrote plays for presentation by the companies, receiving royalties over and above their salaries and often leasing the plays,to other companies with added reve- American stage—Mr. write* has never seen of that could be ad- er the other dey the most novel bridge’s roving fiddler in “Roger and I.” vagabond, too, has memor'es of happy a , days and has been @ brave soldier, and to him $25 a night at Wallack’s In addition to iness, his salary.

Miss Fair is exceedingly fond of dress, and she has an especial fondness for lave, which is equivalent to saying that all her gowns cost a lot of money, for there is nothing in the way of garb so expensive es good lace. Miss Fair not only designed nearly all her finery herself, but she has also de- voted a deal of time to designing the fur- niture for her future home, which will probably be the Henry Sloane house in East Seventy-second street, In. general the chief characteristics of her trousseau are the gorgeousness of |the gowns themselves, their number, the quan- tity of lace and the amount of hand work. The richest brides of past years have considered ten or a dozen fine costumés, the kind that are called show gowns, a very liberal and even an extravagant pro- vision. Miss Fair will have ® of these gowns. These are frocks for functions, costumes of the first importance. She will have scores of others, simpler in materia] and design, for ordinary wear. Miss Fair’s passion for lace finds expres- sion in all of her garments. No other bride in the memory of New York has brought together so much of it In a wed- ding wardrobe. It is all very delicate and very costly, and in itself a very wonderful collection. The lingerie is simply exquisite. there Is a great quantity of it. Miss Fair has had nearly all of the work done by hand, thus adding greatly to the cost and to the effect, re ie ee y * > tno, er Se. a" se 3 » - . - °«? > PV on ~= —— ** - 5” vou 200.0080 oge9Q' OORgOr { ' Sor 355 Uy > eet oa ; OF GROSGADOD L'ZRPO'? _ . oe deegucoegoced A $600 Eveniny Dress in Which Miss Fair’s Passion for Lazz is Siow.

She sat down in a little woeful heap on the sofa, regardless of the fresh dress. “Weil, I don’t call that at all nice,"’ she Said at last. “I call it horrid.” Her eyes filled with tears. “To go away and leave me, and we've not been marricd six months!" She pulled out a tiny square of lace and muslin and looked at it doubt- fully. “No, I won't,” she said, determined- ly, and walked to the door. “Victorine,” she called; ‘“Victor-ine!’’ and a voice from above responded: “Yes, madam; I am coming immediate- ly," and ¢oon mistress and maid were clos- eted together in earnest conversation in the Uttle pink and white boudoir.

The man hunted through the almost empty pigeon holes. “One, sir,”” he said gt last, handing an obvious bill across the counter. Nevill’s face, which had brightened, grew “Where's the drawing The man apologized profusely. ‘You see, sir,”’ he began, “when the wind is in—" “O, yes, | know,” said Nevill, hurriedly cutt:ng him short.

The de- serted table d’hote, with the one solitary old lady of the night before, had nearly driven him back to town when he thought of the cozy dining room at heme, the attentive Shaw and, above all, the pretty, piquant face he was accustomed to see smiling at him through a mass of flowers from the other end of the table. “Have you ang books in the hotel?’ he asked. “O, yes, sir,” was the reply; “plenty in the reading room, sir,”’ and Nevill shud- dered as he recalled his experien‘™s of the night before hunting through th« titles in the crtaking revolving bookcase ¢ some- th Aabl @ st . “« dor ; WRITTEN FOR THE SUNDAY POST-DISPATCH. and handed it to her, but she only bent her head grimiy and croaked, “‘Thank you.” “A wet day,” he suggested feebiy. r She paid not the slightest attention.
