LOUIS—APRIL 27, 1899 MEN AND THEIR DEEDS “Every man has his price.” Yours may be a crown of glory, in this world or the next. That is the highest price. The lowest is said to be three cents. A Napoleon of crime has repeated the old proverb, complaining that some men auoted their honor too high, else his plans for acquiring great power would have worked out successfully. It is hard on Napoleons when men “come high,” but it is good for the world in which you and I and our mothers, sweethearts, wives and children have to live. ' The difficulties in the way of getting men’s honor at a discount and realiz- ing on it at forced sale are happily pre- sented in a story concerning the opera- tions of a man unique among captains of industry, which will be told for the first time in the next Sunday Post-Dis- patch. And at the same time this unique life story will be told—A man of Missouri who holds the individual life so cheap that he has killed men remorselessly, yet all his life he has devoted every energy he possesses to altruistic work, to hu- manitarian endeavor, to reforming con- ditions under which his humble brothers and sisters live. He has slain men, but he has lived hard and fought well for the good of fellow-man. It was probably before Homer's time that. a wide-eyed philosopher observed comedy mixed with every tragedy and saw tears dewing the lids of laughing eyes. This Missourian is the very type of tragedy, the spirit of comedy. He is ridiculous, majestic—a joining of Savon- arola with the buffoon; a mixing of Wild Bill McCarthy and Rough Rider Roose- velt. Another man owned.a county—or %o ‘much of it that he could not tell without the aid of county records what he did ‘not own. Yet his greatest joys were rib- bons—with which to bedeck his coat; his fiddie, on which he played one intermin- able tune, and his political prejudices. He was the richest man in the commetii- ty, almost the richest man in his State; and demanded of allypwho knew him titat’ they make merry at his funeral. > Ai who knew him loved him, but they re+ ‘epected his fast wish and bore him to his grave with rejoicing. He had lived every minute of his long, long life, and his story is to be told for the first time in the next Sunday Post-Dispatch. Speaking of fiddles reminds us of a man whose life story, just closed, will be ‘given its first proper presentation in the ‘game issue of that incomparable Sunday mewspaper. He resolved to gain the ap- , Proval of his neighbors, to be distin- guished among them. Asa first step he made their feet stutter with the sweep of a bow on a violin. He played his fiddle for dances, sang a comic song ac- ceptably, danced, mayhap, himself, won the place he sought and kept it through ‘a long, honorable life. Gov. Bob Tay- lor of Tennessee did something like this, but he is not the man. Sam Sma!l did something like this, but he is not the man. There's another guess due you, but, then, you'll know the whole story when you have read your Sunday paper. MINISTER IS A NEW MAN, Long Island Pastor Accepts a Position as Private Secretary to a Wealthy Widow. GREENPORT, L. I., April 27.—Rev. B. D. Bolvin of Southold has resigned the pas- torate of the First Universalist Church to accept a position as private secretary to Mrs. Betts, a wealthy widow of Philadel- phia.

IT IS BELIEVED SHE CANNOT SURVIVE. She Attempted Suicide Because She Could Not Graduate to Become a Domestic Ser- vant. Because she failed to receive a diploma pronouncing her a competent house serv- ant, Lena Horn, a comely girl of 19, made an attempt at self-destruction in her room at the Woman’s Training School, 1728 Lo- cust street, Thursday morning, which may result In her death before the day is over. She foight so desperately against life, after it was discovered she nad swallowed poisoned, that no persuasion could induce her to take an antidote while awaiting the arrival of physicians and the ambulance. Two sympathizing teachers from the training school went with her in the ambu- lance. Lena struck them and oried out against being saved. At the City Hospital, where she was taken, the attendants were compelled to exert physical force over her to enable them to use the stomach syphon. This is che girl’s second attempt at sul- cide in St. Loutis within two years. She was once dragged river just in time to life. She has been a patient in the observa- tion ward at the City Hospital and it is belleved by the physicians of that inetitu- tion that she wes sent from there to the Insane Asylum some years ago. Lena has been a pupi! at the Women's Training School about four months. Mrs. Alice Smith, the superintendent, re- garded her as a fairly intelligent girl, but one given to despondency and spelis of gloominess. Lena was being instructed in the duties of a hougegirl. The other girls in her class graduated Wednesday and received diplomas. Lena was not considered competent and received no diploma. e*appeared greatly dejected after learning Df her fallure. Thursday morning about 8 o'clock she went toa neighboring drug store and pur- chased a package of Paris green. She returned to her room at the school, swallowed a quantity of the poison, un- dressed and laid down on her bed. Other pupils found her and divined what she had done. If Lena recovers it will be because she took too great a —— of the poison. The girl's parents live in Germany. She has an aunt named Horn living somewhere on King’s highway whose exact address is not known at the training school. RS, L. V.

She declares that within a week after the marfilage her husband told her he wished he hag not married her. as he wanted mon- ‘ only and not a wife. After that, she claims. he was cold and tndifferent to her, and finally deserted her, although she has begwed him repeatedly to live with her. Vr.

Only 15 Years Old, Mary Shane Was Able to Decnive the Police of Nearly Every Big City. ' Mary Shane, 15 years old, was arrested in a wineroom at Fifteenth and Pine streets Wednesday night by Patrolman Denny Ryan. Mary was dressed in most becoming le attire. - For six months she has roamed the coun- try, visiting all important cities between the Atlantic Ocean afid the Father of Wa- ters, and working at various things, from office boy to laborer in glass works. And this, too, in male attire, a garb she had not donned until six months ago. Though the persons she worked for and with never once suspected her séx, as soon as a St. Louis policeman saw her he penetrated her excellent disguise and took her to the Four Courts and gave her into the keeping of Matron Kintzing, where she will remain until sent to the police court. Im the ¢ix months Mary has worn boys’ clothes she has become accustomed to them and she has lost that awkwardness and éelf-consciousness that femininity evinces when it adopts masculine garb. Mary's figure is plump ahd«there are curves that most boys do not possess. Her face is pretty and with her hair cut short, as it is, she looks almost as much like a boy as she does like a girl. Though for six months she has been quite out of her sphere?g@he is’ rather. gentile in her speech and t a good deal like a good-natured boy had never had any trouble.

Her smali and shapely feet ure encased in a ‘neat pair of boy’s shoes and they are nicely kept. All the time she was talking to the reporter she stood leaning my a chair and answered al! questions willing enough. Put in chronological order, the story as she told ft is as follows: “IT am 16 years old and was born in Bridgeton, N. J. I lived. there until six months ago, when I started out’ to/see the world... My father, John Shane, was a glass- blower,.but he lost his health more-than a year = and was out of work a long time. Barly last winter spina] meningitis struck Bridgeton and it carried away both my father and my mother. I had no *brethers nor sisters nor no one else near to me, 80 I concluded to strike out for myself. “IT had never done any work and had always gone to school. I read a great many novels and one of them made a big hit with me. In this story the heroine dressed in boys’ clothes and made a tour of the world. She had a good time, made a bar- rel of money and was none the worse for her experience. I just thought I would try that plan myself. “IT couldn't do anything as a concluded to become a boy. I to Philadelphia. I had $10 in my pocket when I started. I went to a barber shop and. had my hair cut like a boy's. Then I went to a clothing store and bought a auit of boys’ clothes. The trousers were knee trousers and the outfit cost me S. I tried to part my hair on the side. but it wouldn't stay, so I let it go fn the middle. “I then went over to Millville, N. J.. where I got a job as office boy in a real estate office. I got $3 a week there and only stayed two weeks, when I went to Brooklyn. I stayed there awhile and then went Lack to Philadelphia. From there I went to Baltimore. At Washington I saw Presiden: McKinley and all the big men. Then I concluded to come to St. Louis. “IT got as far as Alton, and as my knee trousers suit was about worn out. I con- cluded I was big enough to wear men’s clothes. I paid $% for a suit. I got a job in the Illinois Glass Factory, closing molds. I got 6 cents a day for this. The work was hard, but I stuck to {t for six weeks. I went to Belleville a few days ago, and Sunday I came to St. Louls. I was in a the policeman arrested me, but I was not doing anything.

O’\Hare’s sister, Mrs. Alward, lives at 1417, and since John left Jefferson City recently he has made his home with. her. Mr. ‘Dediemar’s sore eyes figure promi- nenily in the Cass avenue fire. They not only have identified, to their owner's satis- faction, O’Hare as an incendiary, but they are responsible for prompt action by the Fire Department and probably the safety of several lives. Mr. Dediemar lives on the third floor of 1413 Cass avenue. He went to bed early Wednesday night, burt he couldn’t sleep be- cause his eyes hurt him. At 1 o’clock he got out of bed and went out on the back porch to bathe his aching optics. AH the noise on the block he was making himself so when he heard a door open he looke up to see what it was. His eyes were not 60 out of repair that he falied to see a short, thick set man, dressed only in trous- ers and white undershirt appear on the second floor porch of 1417 and steal down the stairs and go into an outhouse. There was nothing suspicious in this act alone. Dédiemar had dismissed it from his mind when a few minutes'later. the man came out of the outhouse and returned to the second floor of 1417. Dediemar’ had } bathed his eyes and was about to go back into the house when he noticed fire in the f outhouse from which the short man hadf just emerged. The flames were with every second. Dediemar rush into his house and woke his: fanrily. hen he dashed downstairs, érying the alarm. Two policemen were in the street and they a, in.a call to the nearest engine com- The alarm of fire had been thoroughly spread among the occupants of the. three dwellings by the time the department had arrived. The firemen had no trouble in extinguishing the blazing outhouse and keeping the flames out of reach of the main buildings. When they were eatisfied py — oS Hy out, the firemen and po- ce made eir customar ? the burned building. 7 vesniga en ae They found unmistable signs of coil oll on the floor of the house, Coil] oi] had also been discovered on the walls Following Dediemar s information, Police Sergeant Mck arland and Patrolmen Ostermeyer and Cramer made a tour through 1417, inspect- ing all occupants. John O'’Hare’s etature and attire fitted Dediemar’s description and to oinch the circumstantial evidence against him John's brown woolen socks were soaked with coal oil.

Capt. 0’ Malley has no doubt of O'Hare’s guilt, and for a motive ascribes O’Hare’s desire to have his sister paid the insurance money on her |furniture. Mr. Mitchell, the owner of the buildings, shares in the theory of insurance money as a motive and adds that O’ Hare has recently had trouble with various other Mitchell tenants, and that revenge may have had a place in O’Hare’s mind. Mr. Mitchell swore to a warrant charg- ing O'Hare with arson at noon Thursday. | Assistant Prosecuting Attorney Johnson hesitated about issuing it, but gave way to the strong representations of the police and Mr. Mitchell. Another attempt was made to burn the buildings about a month ago. In the base- ment of one of them shavings and rags, saturated with oll, were discovered, just as they were about to burst into a blage. Mr. Mitchell estimates that within a dan- gerous radius of the starting point of the fire in the outhouse there were 1235 sleeping men, women and cFildren at 1 o'clock Thursday morning. ASLEEP INA BURNING WAGON. Jacob Zrdwasky and His Wife Naz- rowly Escaped Death in Their Wheeled Lunch Room. the Nelson-Barnes Realty Co. The house | was unoccupied Wednesday night, Miss Emma Brown, the sole tenant, being away from home. contrary to her custom. Henry Dwbard and. William Hutchinson, young men living at 4108 Lexington avenue, which is immediately across an alley from the scene of the fire, were arrested after the second blaze by Officers Britton and Danbridge, but were released after mak- ing a statement. The officers who made this arrest have been assigned to discover the incendiary. The house contains 12 rooms, six on each side, with a hall between the two sets of apartments. One side of the house is en- tirely vacant. The other side is used by Emma Brown.who has two rcoms, scantily furnished. Among other things she has a gasoline stove in the house. Emma was away from home attending a sick person. The first fire was discovered about 1 a. m., by Dubard and Hutchinson. They turned in an alarm. When the fire depart- ment arrived the flames were confined to the interior of one of the rooms occupied by Emma Brown. The fireenen forced an en- trance and extinguished the blaze with chemicals. They discovered the cause of the fire. There was an empty five-gallon gasoline can in the room, and scattered about were five one-gallon jars, empty, but smelling of gasoline. There was also a deal of excelsior on the floor. Recognizing the work of an incendiary the firemen seuss up a line of hose and poaked the house with water. After a thorough search of the premises, which showed that there was no more in- flammable material about, the fire company returned tqgits quarters It appear#® that Dubard and Hutchinson, who entered the house with the firemen, suspected that another attempt to fire the, place would be made and when they re- turned home they sat up at a back window watching for developments. At least this is t of the statement on which they were released by the police. According to the same statement they saw a flash inside of the house about 3:30 o'clock, but nothing further occurred until about one hour later, when an industrious blaze back of the windows In the building under obeervation and grew into goodly oeeporseene in a minute. e watchers ran to an alarm box and sent in a call. The firemen were roused from their cots just about the time they had returned to slumber after the first run. When the department arrived at the Holman house the woodwork in two of Emma Brown's rooms was burning fiercely. This second fire required more work than its predecessor to extinguish. The smell of er pervaded the piace, but none of the ofl was found. A police Officer re- mained on watch during the rest of the night, but nothing was discovered by him. rs. Holman stated that she knew noth- ing about the origin of the fires. She came into possession of the house about a year azo. She secured tlhe title to It = the courts from a man named Mead, for whom she kept house. It i# sald that Mead is now an inmate of the Poorhouse. | ‘THEY FIRED THEIR BOSS.

WASHINGTON, April 27.—If Aguinaldo’s army is not crushed or captured within a few days the President will likely call into service the 35,000 provided for by Congress, and send every regular than can be spared from this country to the Philippines. When the regiments under moving orders reach the Philippines, Gen. Otis will have 24,000 regulars. After a careful survey of the necessities elaewhere the President is satieafied that 6000 more regulars can be spared for the archipelago.

The American volunteers have fought like veterans. Foreign attaches who witnessed the operations Tuesday and Wednesday, admit that the American volunteer has no euperior in the trained armies of Europe. No one doubts the ability of Gen. Mc- Arthur to take the trenches against which he is now operating, although they are well constructed and courageously defend- ed. He has about 5000 men on his fight- ing line and no force of Filipinos can re- sist their assault when the order is once given. Newe from Gen.

~ STI ALONE" Charles Emory Smith’s Im- *perial Policy. NO NEED OF AN ALLIANCE. CONGRESS WILL SETTLE STATUS OF FILIPINOS. Praise for the Colonial Scheme of Great Britain With the Declara- tion That Grant Was an Imperialist. GALPNA, Ill., April 27.—Charies Emory Smith, Postmaster-General, editor and dip- lomat, is the orator at the Grant birthday memorial exercises here to-day. In an in- terview Mr. Smith said: “This nation does not need an alliance, olitical, commercial or military, with any oreign power that exists. I believe that the American people themselves feel this; feel that we are able to stand alone and pepe with any problem that confronts us. I lieve in that. “Curlously enough, in one of the almost last things that Grant wrote before his death, he dwelis on this point and states that through all time England and this country ehould be natural agliies and friends, and then he refers to England's colon policy, and dwells at length on ifs superb colonial system. At the time we ossessed no colonies, so that it looks as f he almost divined what the future was to bring forth for us. “We will maintain a form of government in Cuba until the people of that island can e to the world a stable, permanent, strong government of their own. “Ae to the Filipinos, the United States is fighting them now to secure peace. That is the only peter of the present campaign. As to what will be done with them afterward, the American people will settle that uqes- tion themselves. They will decide what shall be done with the islands, and the executive legisiative branches of the Gov- ernment will follow the behests of the peo- ple. Our troops are acting ,with remark- able géeliantry there at the present time. “Are we going to ald England in China?” “Not than I know of.

The American people will have to settle that themselves, though, and will unquestion- ably when the proper time comes for settle- ments to be made. “The United States has taken a certain position before the whole world, and is bi enough to maintain it of its own free will. ow long that position will be maintained the people themselves will decide, and I have not the slightest doubt but what they will decide in the right way. I have great confidence in the judgment of the people, the future of the nation, the certainty that for all time to come the Government, as representing the people, will hold an ad- vanced position among nations on all ques- tions which affect the happiness, welfare peace of men. We are respected in eer t of the world to-day, and I thin he quantity .of that respect will greatly increase in the next few years.

The Pyramid Pile Cure cures all forms of piles without one particle of pain. This desirable point is not obtained by the use of injurious opiates, which sim- py deaden and paralyze the ~nerves of the parts and make matters worse in the long run. But it is done solely by its remarkable healing and soothing el- fects. _And while it thus gives immediate re- lief, at the same time the disease is not merely checked, but a radical cure is ac- complished. And the point we want to make clear is that all this is done without a par- ticle of pain. is fact is one great reason for the popularity of the Pyramid Pile Cure and constitutes one very great difference be- tween it and almost any other treatment for piles. Every kind of surgical operation for piles is excruciatingly painful, besides endangering the life of the patient and in most cases is not to be compared with the Pyramid Pile Cure, neither in making successful cures without pain nor in cheapness and safety. The Pyramid Pile Cure has been be- fore ee gutlic so long, and its merits recognized by too may people to allow it to be classed with the many salves, “gayi pills, etc., and you run no risk im trying it, as it is often the case I untried preparations. f yOu are ever troubled with any piles or rectal disease do not ‘amid Pile Prepared HAS SCOTT GONE His Disappearance a Mystery in a Kentucky Town. HE LEFT HOME ON APRL 5. STARTED FOR LOUISVILLE AND HAS NOT BEEN SEEN SINCE. Missing Man Came to Bowling Groen to Experiment in Tobaco Raising and Shortly Married a Wealthy Woman. BOWLING GRBEEN, Ky., April 27.—J. Howard Scott, who six months ago married the handsome and wealthy widow of the late Moses Gott of Butler County, is miss- ing, and his wife has received no tidings of him or message from him since he bade her affectionate farewell on the morning of April 5. Mr. Scott stated that he was going to Louisville to arrange some business mat- ter and would return the following day, but if something should come up to occasion delay he would wire her the next afternoon. He did not return as expected, nor has a word or trace of him come to the ears of friends in this city. Mrs. Scott says she has looked at the matter in every concelva- ble way and that she was as far from a solution of it as she was the very first day that he was missing. While Mrs. Scott feels that there may have been foul play and that her husband may have been mur- dered or in some way foully dealt with, not very much stress is placed on fhis the- ory. Not an unkind word had come be- tween them, she said; there had been no unpleasantness of any kind, and for the six months of their married life he had been, so far as she could see, al! that an affec- tionate and tender husband could be. J. Howard Scott landed in th's county in the early part of last year. He said that he had been in Cuba for several! years en- gaged in raising Cuban tobaccos and that his business here was to experiment with & number of varieties of Cuban tobaccos On Kentucky soil. If the experiments proved successful, as he believed they would, a company or companies would be formed and the raising of tobacco engaged in upon a large scale. He was of pleasant address, good manners, apparently well- bred and trustworthy in every particular. Time went on. a farm was leased, parts of which were divided up and planted in a number of different kinds of tobacco. The plants grew well and in the fall seemed to pew tnat the experiments were satiefac- Mr. Scott then wanted a farm. He se- lected one that suited him, agreed upon the rice and had an abstract of title a, he title appeared to be unsatisfactory to Scott and the money for it was not paid. This farm necessitated some correspon- dence with New Orleans attorneye and there was nothing in the letters from the lawyers or from men whom he claimed to have large business interests with, to in- dicate that he had fiot spoken the truth. Leares upon a one-half interest of a sugar plantation in Havana Province, Cuba, were drawn up for Mr. Scott by loval attorneys here, and at hig request were sent away by the lawyers. This half interest in the sugar plantation was one of many enter- prises he appeared to be interested in. By the terms of the lease drawn up for Scott, he was to give a five years’ lease to Cu- ban parties upon his half of the sugar plantation and for & he was.to receive an annual sum of $2000. The leases were drawn up very carefully and specified that certain improvements in building and fencing were to be made. Other documents of a legal nature were drawn up by lawyers for Scott from time to time. For these he always paid cash and never grumbled at the prices charged. During last year he met Mrs. Gott, a most excellent woman, who was yet young and possessed a goodly sum of this world’s goods. He paid her devoted attention, and six months ago they were quietly married. From that day until the day he left her Mrs. Gott claims that he was attentive tender and affectionate, and that she hear nothing at any Ime to his detriment. He made no attempt to get hold of or control her oy! and with the exception of small sums that may have been given him a few times, he molested mone of her in- terests. Several weeks ago an employe of the Louisville & Nashville Railroad Co. saw Scott on the street here and stated that his name was not Scott, but that it was Jack Howard. This man stated that Scott or Howard had married a wealthy widow at Paris, Tenn., and after a few weeks of married life had fied. Letters were written there by some interested persons and no anewers came. This story must have been untrue or else the Paris people wanted no further airing of the matter. How- ever, the railroad man described Scott, or Howard, minatey. even to a stiff finger on his hand, which had not then been noticed, but was fouhd to be as described. In some of the letters written for him by lawyers on business the name “How- ard’’ was used and not the name of Scott. While this story was not heard until after the letter writing, Scott explained that it was to an intimate associate who knew him better by the first name of ‘‘Howard”’ than by that of Scott. Other stories affecting the stranger were whispered here from time to time, but Scott appeared to be so frank, open and free in his manner that people did not even repeat them. The wife is almost heartbroken, and vesterday her eyes filled with tears from time to time as she told what little she knew of the strange dis- appearance and about the happy days that seemed to be in store for her after her marriage. What makes it all the more de- plorable for Mrs, Scott is the fact that her relatives and close friends were bitterly opposed to her marrying without making a close investigation as to the character of the man she had chosen. These matters were mentioned to Scott, who seemed more than willing that this should be done, and offered to eid in this matter if it was de- sired. Whatever the rest of the story is nobody here knows, but the genial, social and high- living J. Howard Scott has not been seen or heard of since that bright April morn- in three weeks ako, when he kissed his wife a fond good-by, told her he would re- turn the next day, and has not yet arrived. Whether he was murdered, robbed, kid- napped or what not in the ungodly city of Louisville, or whether he became tired of married life is hard to be determined. SCHLEY’S NEW DUTY.

He eays’ “In my opinion, the controlling declara- tion of the National Democratic platform of 1900 will be a demand-for the free coin- age of silver at the ratio of 16 to 1, and a reduction of taxation and expenditures, together with a denunciation of trusts and the policy of acquiring far distant tropical islands.

Remnants of yard-wide, 6¢ Unbleached Remnants (good serviceable lengths) of the best quality Table Oil Cloths; PARTS, April 27.—The gendarmerie are powerless to discover any trace of the 20 young girls who were recently kidnaped from the vicinity of Cette, and the purpose of the kidnapers is a subject of varying conjecture. The kidnaped girls do not belong to wealthy families, and it is, therefore, clear that the abductors were not prompted by any hope of ransom. The plot was manipulated primarily through the agency of a woman disguised as a religieuse, who went from house to house among the homes of the poorer mid- die class, promising profitable work for roung women at Cette. The pretended re- elouns took good care to scrutinize the prospective employers, selecting only those who were fair of form and face. Arriving at Cette the 4 young women were offered a holiday by their conductors. The day's recreation had been arranged to consist of a sea excursion, in which all the young women were easily prevailed on to participate. The excursionists have not returned, and it is believed they were taken to Sicily, the lawlessness o ortions of which has become familiar to the news-reading world. ONLY CONFORMING TO LAW.

i ee Former Will Be an Election Commissioner. LATTER A PEACE JUSTICE. REPUBLICANS SAY THEY WERE HOODWINKED. _—_- —-—-— -—— An Agreement as to Legislation Broken by Both Parties—Why Two Measures Will Be Pacsed. For once the Republicans at Jefferson City find themselves outgeneraied by the Democrats, and as a result Chauncey I. Filley is certatn to be a member of the Board of Election Commissioners o t Louls and Judge W. Jefferson Pouast wii get back on the bench as Justice of the Peace. Karly in the legislative session a bill was presented in the Senate creating two new offices of Justice of the Peace. It wus pro- moted by ex-Judge Spaulding and ex-Cvn- stable Ben F. Brady, who hank afte the “ which they receatiy = “ The bill provided that the new justices should be appointed by the Court of Ap- —» wate® made Me certain that Brady an paulding would be the appo es. The bill found friends in the fear st: in order to assure its passage the Demo- crats entered into an agreement with the Republicans that if it were passed ‘n its eg Be corm. Eetmout @ Single ameni- ent, ere shou no elect ment tae ection law far The Republicans entered into this agree- ment joyfully, because they feared a new election law. The bill passed the Senate n original form. In the meantime, the Nesbitt election bill, which gives the Gov- ernor the appointment of three Commis- sioners, had ined headway in the House. Judge Jeff Pollard saw in the Justice of the Peace bill a chance to fx hiieself in & permanent place, but he knew he would stand no chance of appointment if the Court of Appeals had contrul. He began a quiet campaign for an amendment giving the Governor tha up- pointment of the new Justices. Being pop- ular with Democrats and Republicans nlike, 92 amendment to that effect offered by udge Hawkins was adopted by a big vote. The St. Louls Republican members. belig aware of the agreement with the Demo- cratic Benators, with one exception voted against the amendment, but ;he eouutry Republicans were loyal to Judge Poilurd. In the meantime, the Nesbitt § eloction Dill had passed the House. Democratic Genators Jearned that tice of the Peace bill been by Republican votes tn the House, considered themselves absoived from their agreement, and the Nesbitt bill stands a 00d chance of paseegs. It is absolutely settled that if it does become a law Chaun- cey I. Filley will be appointed as the Re- pubdlican Commissioner.

ALL MIRRORS SHATTERED. DOORS AND WINDOWS RIDDLED WITH BULLETS. One Man Wounded and Several Had Narrow Escapes—Revenge for the Ghooting Done by Heisler. A “thirat parlor” was riddied with bul- lets in the downtown district of St. Louis during a display of pistol pyr>*ecnics ihat would have done credit to an Arizona mii- ing camp. The incident: occurred about i0 o'clock Wednesday sient and nobody was arrested until long after the wounded tad been treated at che City Dispensary and sent home in an amb'lan->, “‘Doc"" Sweeney's saloon at Eighth and Walnu; streets, where “Yanrtz’ Meily wa3 mortally wounded, has nut gone out of bust- ness, but the place, as they say in the slum district which it adorns, is “on the bum.,”’ There is about enough of ‘he back har mirror remaining for a thirsty man to see the foam ooze down rhe side of a beer gee in the hand of nis image. The wuss oor cases on either side of the mirror are shattered and contain only remnants of the quart bottles thet once contained whisky; mahogany colorej «tains on the shelves show where the 'iquor flowed. The back bar woodwork is eplintered and the ice box mirror is perforated. A}! this was done by bulleis Wednesday nighi, and there ise a man about the place car- rying his arm in a iing and telling how his agin preveited the bul'et from lhude- ing in his cronk,’’ which means head— instead of in his “wing,’ which means arm. Doc Sweeney is there also, with his ear: Diy lime-light diamond. So !s Tom Donnel 1d bartender, vho took the piace of “Kid” Heisler, the latier being in jail for the killing of Kelly. In addition to the propictor, the barien- der and the man with the wounded arm there are a dozen o: more young men who do not look timid and whose xole oc- cupation seems to be to :ake drinks wiih Sweeny and closely acrutinize every pe.von who enters the place. ' Across the way at the ‘Horracks brothers saloon, there are a few bullet holes in the pane front and several square shouldered ndividuals In the wine room. The scene of devastation at Sweeney's and the indications of preparedness for an en- counter are results of a big battle Wednes- day night. The Nashville could scaréely have made more noise or bored more holes with her secondary battery than did the adher- ents of the houses of Sweeney and Hor- racks. Gweeney’s place was attacked and it was a most unhealthy place to be for about 260 minutes. Thus it is that Sweeney is ready to clear decks for action and mop up the floor with any body who shall lead another attack. The wy gnoeciey night bombardment was conducted, it is alleged, By the friends of Kelly. “‘Doc’’ Sweeney employed Tom Donnelly to serve drinks and then he went up town. Tom was ocupy ing the stool back of the bar on which “Kid Heisler sat about 12 hours previous when he ghot Kelly. Tom was wide-awake, anticipating trouble. Alderman Cronin had just depgrted from the place. Henry Ehrhardt, a barber, and George Jackson were leaning against the bar opposite and one on edther side of Donnelly. hey were discussing the morn- ing tragedy when gi! from behind the screens that hides the interior from the street when the doors are opened, there rushed a crowd of men that seemed like a regiment to Donnelly. The attacking party had revolvers drawn and at once opened re. Donnelly threw himself off the stooi to the floor behind the bar just as a bullet assed between Jackson and Ehrhardt and role a wh'‘eky~-Ddottle on a line with where his head would have been had he remained on the stool. Jackson and Ehrhart leaped toward the back of the saloon where the winerooms are, and where there is a door leading to Walnut street. It was not volley firing nor sharpehooting. Every one of the assaulting party pulled the trigger of his weapon as fast as he could. e mirror and glassware back of the bar were demol- ished in a minute. Donnelly tried to claw his way through the floor back of the bar counter, while the mirror fragments show- ered about him and whisky from broken bottles anointed him. Ehrhardt and Jackson succeeded in reach- ing the street without being struck, but two of the crowd pursued them and a bul- 4 Manufacturer's Lirts, Suits at Shirt Waist tenia.

. 7% _ Alleged Faults of the Depart- ment Store Bill. NO BENEFIT TO CONSUMERS. TTS PROVISIONS ARE HURTFUL TO SMALL DEALERS. Although Aimed at the Large Estab- lishments, It Is Claimed That It Shoots Far Beyond and Will Unsettle Present Trade Conditions. Special to the Post-Dispatch. JEFFERSON CITY, Mo., April 27.—The Gepartment store bill which passed the House and is now pending before a com- Mmitiee of the Senate has excited wide- spread opposition among business men. It is denounced as the most outrageous bill ever offered in any Legislature, an act that is not understood by hose who voted for it, an act full of mischief, a discredit to the intelligence of the State and an outrage upon consumers. The bill is designed to regulate business and trade in cities having a population of 10,000 or more. For this purpose a classai- fication of goods is adopied, 73 classes in Sli, covering ali lines of trade. These Classes are combined in some 2 or W , each clagé or group constituting a groups / anit to which any one trader is limited as his principal business. The bill provides that it shall be unlaw- 1 for any person, firm or corporation to ave for sale at retail in one house under One Wianagement any of the articles of © than one of the several classes or oups without first having obtained a li- ense., The board or city officer charged with the Guty of issuing merchants licenses is em- wered to fix the sum to be paid, the fee, owever, being not less than $500 for every Class or group which may be carried in Stock in addition to the principal business of the merchant. Violation of the act is made a misde- meanor, punishable by imprisonment in the County Jail for a term not exceeding one Year, or by a fine of not less than $100 nor » .

Bperini to the Post-Dispatch. JIDSFFBRRSON CITY, Mo., House spent the first hour this morning listening to political speeches. Tubbs of Osage offered a resolution reciting the con- dition of the State Treasury, as it is viewed from a Republican standpoint, and revers- ing the opinion of the Attorney-General that the State Treasurer has authority to use money at hand to pay warrants wheth- er it has been formally appropriated or not. In speaking to his resolution Tubbs ridi- culed the Governor. Whitecotton made a vigorous speech, calling the attention of the minority to the bankrupt condition of the Republican State of Pennsylvania and the corruption in the city of St. Louis un- der Republican rule. The House was in the wildest disorder during both speeches, ap- plauding, laughing and cheering the speak- ers without regard for attempts to preserve order. On motion the resolution was tabled, ROAD BILL IS PERFECTED. General Bill at Last Passed in cne Missouri Senate. Spectal to the Uost-Dlepatch JEFFHRSON CITY, Mo., April 27.—The Senate this morning passed a general road bill which has already passed the House. The bill exempts Jackson, Buchanan and St. Louls Counties. This bill has a pecul- iar history. After it had passed both houses, Senator Haynes discovered that while it exempted the three counties named, it repealed the old road law, leaving no road law for those counties. He called the bill back and perfected it. JONES IS IN THE FIELD. The Mayor of Tolcdo Wants to Be Gov- ernor of Ohio. Spectal te the Post-Dispatch.

The Body of the Vigilantes’ Victim Found on the Road Near Leesburg. LEBRSBURG, Ga., April 27.—The body of Mitchell Daniel, a’ negro, was found in the road near here to-day, riddled with bullets. The man who came in to notify the Coro- ner says he heard the shooting at 3 o’clock this morning. Daniel and other negroes have recently made inflammatory talks against a family named Laramore and oth- ers, charging them with complicity in a lynching near here some time ago. Three negroes about a week ago tried to force an entrance into the room occupied by Mrs. William Laramore. Her screams ‘Doctors Can’t Cure It!

I took almost every so-called blood reniedy, but they didnot geem to reach the dis- ease, and had no effect whatever. I wae dis- heartened, for it seemed that I would never be cured.

Myers Declares That Col. M. C. Wetmore Would Like to Be Vice-President. Has Col. Moses C. Wetmore of St. Louis aspirations to be Vice-President of the United States? The Kansas City Star of Wednesday de- clares that it looks as though the Colonel wouldn't have himself insulated if the Vice- Presidential lightning of the anti-trust brand were darting his way, and for its authority the Star quotes one of Col. Wet- more’s former close business associates The article in question reads: iy According to George 8S. Myers of S formerly President of the Liggett H cee ae bacco Co., Col. Moses C. Wetmore of that city has aspirations for the Vice-Presidentia] nomi- nation on the Democratic ticket in 1900—that is, if Mr. Bryan is named for President. Other- wise, of course, Col. Wetmore , Myers was at the Coates Hotel yester- day, on his way to San Diego. Cal., where his family is, and he was in a talkative mood when seen by a reporter for the Star in the evening. ‘Yes, I rather think Wetmore ts o1 Vice-Presidential nomination,’’ he sata ah ~~ know he and Bryan have always been the closest and most intimate of friends and he thinks the sun rises and sets in Mr. RBrvya«'s immediate vicinity. Why, when the combine bought our factory the other day Wetmore tele- gtaphed Bryan that he regretted the fact it had been swallowed up by a trust, but he (Wet- more) had done all he could to prevent it.” Mr Myers laughed. Feit “But when I got ready to'sell my stock | didn’t ask any ove whether or not I should do BO. “And then, in his speech at the great dollar dinner in New York Bryan referred eloquently to Wetmore, you know. He said that if there were more men like him, there would be leas trouble hetween the classes. So the friend- ship, you see, is mutual." Col. Wetmore was sought by a Post-Dispatch reporter Thursday morning,. who wished to read the Colonel! Mr. Myets’ estimate of the situation and to hear what the Colonel had to say in reply. The anti-trust Colonel was not to be found, however. He was not at the Planters’ Hotel, where he usually spends his leisure time, nor was he visible at political headquarters. The Kansas City papers in commenting upon Mr. Myers’ interview. Says that Col. Wetmore’'s “hostility to trusts as shown In the recent transfer of the Liggett & My- ers plant, is not entirely without a person- al motive.” MILITARY FUNERAL SUNDAY.

Prisoner Is Quite Cool in Denial of the Murder of His Stepmother and Her Four Children. Special to the Post-Dispatch. CATRO, Iil., April 27.—Sheriff Bledsoe of Dunklin County, Mo., and City Marshal Al- len of Malden, reached here this morning having in charge J. H. Tettaton, who is under arrest suspected of having murdered his step-mother, Mrs. Jane Tettaton and her four children on Tuesday night. The ofGcers left Malden with their prisoner yesterday on a freight train as there was such a strong feeling against the man that it was feared a lynching would occur if the prisoner was not removed to a place of safety at once. The officers will leave here at 2:32 this evening over the Illinois Central for &t. Louis, where the prisoner will be placed in jail for safe keeping. In a long interview with Tettaton he frequently made ¢ontra- dictory statements. The officers say there is no room for doubt as to the guilt ot Tettaton. The prisoner apprently takes the matter quite coolly, and says he “desires nothing but justice.’” When asked how it was that he stated to the offiiers that he had gohe to the house of the murdered woman to pay her a sum of money when he had a re- ceipt for this money in his pocket dated over a month ago, he replied that on the date the receipt was given he had intended aying the money and had counted it out. Mrs. Tettaton wrote out the receipt and handed it to him, when some dispute arose about the interest and he kept the money and at the same time forgot to return the receipt.

The Government of Frederick the Great was the first European Power which acknowledged the young Republic of the United States. Germany |= = a was the first to acknowledge the supremacy of the United States in the Philippines. This fact alone ptoves plainly that Germany has no unfriendly in- tentiona and no desire to oppose us in the Orient. In the glorious history of the United States from the time of George Washington to the days of the Civil War the German-American population has shown strong and patriotic loyalty to the Union. In the darkest days of the Republic the German-Americans stood firm and true by the Union, as they will do in future. We German- Americans and the Germans in the old country have been cruelly misrepresented. We proved our loyalty during the past war, and will continue to prove it, whatever the future may bring.

Representatives of the German press of Missouri met in the office of Dr. Emil Pree- torius, editor of the Westliche Post, Wed- nesday afternoon and took a firm stand against imperialism and militarism and in- cidentally condemned the efforts of the jingo. press to cause a rupture between the United States and Germany. Those in the conference were: Dr. Pree- torius, editor of the Westliche Post, who called the meeting; Charles Schroeder, St. Louls County Waechter, Clayton, Mo.; Theodore Graf. Hermann Volksbiatt; Charlies Botz, Sedalia Journal; Dr. A. Schaf- franek, Sj. Charles Republikaner; William Schwartz, St. Louls Herold des Glaubens; Arthur Preuss, St. Louis Amerika; J. H. Bode, St. Charlies Demokrat; R. P. Sevin of the Higginsville, Mo., Thalbote. Dr. eetorious aroused great enthusiasm Dy an address in which he said that Ger- man-Americans had always been loyal to this country and fought its battles in the hour of need. “If war were to be declared against Germany, we would take up our guns for our adopted country, though it would be with bleeding hearts."’ he de- clared. “Aguinaldo, in fighting for free- dom, is @ greater man than resident Me- Kinley.” Dr. Deestotions referred sneeringly to Capt.

BIG DEAL IN REAL ESTATE. Heirs of Elizabeth Hager Disposed of Broadway Property. As was told exclusively in the late editions of Wednesday's Post-Dispatch, the heirs of Elizabeth Hager have sold the property at 217 and 219 North Broadway for a cash consideration of $226,000. Adam Boeck, who engineered the deal, refused to give the name of the purchaser, saying that the property was bought mere- ly for investment purposes and that no im- provements will be made The building is occupied by SAalveter & Stewart, mens furnishers. The fact that the consideration for the property was not quite $000 a foot has eaueed considerable comment in real estate circles. It is said that an offer of $10,000 a foot wae made for the property just north of the Hager lots lees than 10 years ago and experts cannot understand why there should be guch a difference in vaiue be- tween the two pices of property.

Cured in Seven Weeks. My infagpt boy was afflicted with a terrible skin disease. The upper part of his body was one mass of bleeding sores which extended to bis bead, and one of his ears was so affected that we thought it would drop off. His sufferings were beyond description, and he had to be kept constantly under the influence of opiates. Our physician did everything for his relief; but instead of the child getting better, the disease seemed to become more aggravated every day, untill became utterly discouraged. I could find nothing that would even relieve my child till one day my attention was called to a CuTicuRna testimonia! published by you. I bought the Curicuna remedies, using the CutTiccuna, Cuticura Soar, and Curicura RESOLVENT. The result was simply marvellous. After the third day the opiates were discontinued, the child was free from pain and the terrible itch- ing sensation.

CAUSE OF HER FURY APPEARS. NEIGHBORS LONG KNEW OF THE STRANGE INFATUATION. Whe Two Had Lived Together for Fif- teen Years and One Had Long Threatened to Kill Any Man Who Came Between Them. OHICAGO, April 27.—Mrs Charles LL. Sie- Bert, nee Miss Hattie Leonard, and her brother, editor of the Oshkosh Enterprise, have arrived from Wisconsin to confer with the woman's husband as to what course to pursue against Mrs. Nettie A. Miller, who shot Siebert Manday in front of her store, 7 West Van Buren atreet. The strange facts behind the attempted murder are just coming into public light Siebert is a young real estate dealer, who fFecentiy eloped with Miss Leonard. Mrs. Miller had repeatedly threatened that a “triple killing’’ would take place if Miss Leonard should wed. The threats mere ignored, and when Mrs. Miller met '@lebert at Robey and West Van Buren ‘gtreets yesterday afternoon she fired three Bhots at him. One shot inflicted a serious scalp wound, the other two went wild, and as the furious woman was disarmed by neighbors ahe shouted: “Blow my brains ‘put, Iike his!’ She thought she had killed Siebert, Whose forehead blood was flowing. from — c was placed under arrest and taken to the ice atation, where she was romptly alled out by a prominent North Side man, who signed her bond for $5000.

They were partners in every enterpr:se, and each was the other's sole companion. They always appeared in public towether, and neither was even seen in the company of a man. Never did ardent swain or lover pay more attention to his sweetheart than Mrs. Mil- ler bestowed. on the object of her affec- tions. She had a good income as a nurse and also from a small property, and she gave liberally of her means to please every whim or folible of her companion. While the society of her friend and ben- efactress Was al! that Miss Leonard de- sired, everything went along swimmingly. But despite every discouragement and ob- stacle she once or twice in previous years showed an inciination to accept the atten- tions of young men. Then the older woman would. become violent’y jealous, declaring that Hattie should never marry. When, about 10 years ago. a clerk in the employ of Dr. Buton, Van Buren street, seemed an accepted suitor for Miss Leonard’s hand the con- templated marriage was precipitately brok- en off owing to Mrs. Miller's threats against the lives of the young couple druggist's 744 West Of late years Miss Leonard had found Mrs. Miller's jealousy to be irksome, and she often left and went to her «ister ner parents. But she was alw hve sought out and brought back by Mrs. Miller, who is said to have protested on three occasions that she would kill herself unless Miss Leonard consented to again live with her. When young Siebert, who is the son.of a Board of Trade man living at 764 West Van Buren street and is employed at 13)1 West Madison street, began to pay attention to Miss Leonard trouble again cropped out. With a view of arriving at some mutually satisfactory arrangement Miss Leonard went out to see Mrs. Miller at an Evanston residence, where the nurse was in attend- ance on a patient. It was then stipulated that the joint enterprise of the bakery store would be sold out and after the proceeds were divided Miss Leonard would go to Oshkosh to her friends while Mrs. Miller would move to California. But within a week Miss Leonard received a letter from Mrs. Miller withdrawing hei consent for the sale of the store and declar ing that she knew the motive for such a sale and the proposed separation was that Hattie m'ght marry. The latter then went on to state that if a marriage with Siebert or any one else took place three funerals would follow quick upon the wedding. “She wrote that she would kill herself and Hattie and any man Hattie ever mar- ried." John Leonard, brother of Hattie leonard, said at his residence, 116% West Van Buren street. last night. ‘It was a pe- cul'ar case, and as a family we did all we could to break the extraordinary bond of affection that bound Mrs. Miller to my sis- ter. The woman is a perect hater of all men. and she talked strange words of love to my sister. Still she is shrewd, and after she heard of the élopement of Siebert and Hattle to Kenosha last Monday week and thelr marriage there she declared they had taken money and property from the store without her permission. Everything Hattie took with her was hers, however. and hers aione. Young S‘ebert is a nice young man. I lieve he will prosecute the case to the full extent of the law, though his mother likes Mrs. Miller better than ever she liked Hattie, and is do'ng what she can to have the case dropped. Both Hattie and my brother, who is editor and part propriet of the Oshkosh Daily Enterprise, will be here to-morrow to hold a conference with Mr. Blebert in regard to what may be the proper course to pursue.’ With her head-resting heavily upon her hands, apparently straining every nerve to retain her “the rer Mrs. Milier sat upon ‘fs or a bench in the rear of the courtroom ves- terday during the hearing of other cases and keenly eyed Siebert Siebert was seated nearby with his wife.

I have lived with her 14 years and have been held ‘to her by hypnotic influence. I first went to live with her in Lafayette. Ind. I took care of her for a long time while she was sick and during this time she fell desperately in love with me and seemed to become more and more infatuated as the time went by. It grew so that she forbade me going with any men or accepting the slightest attentions from any one.

Eaid to Have Mortgaged Cattle He Did Not Own. CHICAGO, April 27.—Abraham Moore of Neb., well known among live stock dealers throughout the West, was arrested here to-day on an indictment re- turned by the grand jury last Thursday. The indictment accused Moore of obtaining $i000 by false pretenses from Strahan-Hut- ton-Evans Commission Co., at the Union Stockyards. It is asserted that Moore rep- resented to the firm that he had 100 head of cattle at South Omaha, and gave a mortgage upon the lot to Secure the loan. but it has since developed, it is alleged. that Moore has no such cattle as repre- sented. Attorneys for the commission firm allege Moore has obtained $47,000 from the plaintiffs.

Any policy which denies our principles and brings them into contempt; any policy which requires alliance to promote greedy objects; any policy which involves sway over conquered peoples, is false and dangerous. Kindly neutrality, respect for the rights of nations, and sip- port of liberty the world over, embody the highest wisdém for he American people. —_— » The scope of the words “traitor” and copperhead,” as ap- plied by the imperialists to their opponents, must be enlarged. They must embrace all the German-American citizens, includ- ing many veterans who fought under the flag for the Union. — — A JUST JUDGE. Police Judge M. B. Earnhart of Columbus fs a just judge. He has dared to take a stand that will, if persisted in, deal out justice in quarters where it is sadly needed but where it has hitherto failed to reach. Sudge Earnhart says to the police of Columbus: “Don’t bring down the men and women you find in a disorderly house without the lendlord. I want to see him. If he can't get tenants the court will help him.” In every city where disorderly houses are prohibited, the renting of houses to disorderly characters is probably pro- hibited also. This is the case in St. Louis and evidently Co- lumbus has slinilar laws.

It will be astounding if the Democratic majority shall stultify itself and brand the party as a hypocrite by permitting such a trust measure to pass. Uneeasing vigilance is the price of protection against trust legislative schemes. = i The fact that on Tuesday a continuous circuit of 6001 miles, reaching from: New York City to the Pacific Coast, and from Chicago to New Orleans, touching Philadelphia, Pittsburg, Cincinnati, Atlanta, Memphie, St. Louis; Kansas City, Omaha. Denver, San Francisco and all the larger intermediate points south and west, was successfully worked for several] hours by the Associated Press, recalls another important fact, to-wit: that the Post-Dispatch is the only evening paper in St. Louis that has the telegraphic service of that greatest of all news- gathering Organizations. = = = _ a, we WHY YOU SHOULD SUBSCRIBE REASON NO. 3. | If you are a St. Louis manufacturer the reasons which urge St. Louis business men to help the World’s Fair to success urge you, and “there are others.” The activities and investments incident to the World’s Fair will create a great demand for products in every line of man- ufacturing industry. The market will be stimulated to unpre- cedented activity and the manufacturers will profit thereby. But there is another advantage in the World's Fair for St. Louls manufacturers. Hosts of business men will come to St. Louis, and their drst interest will be the investigation of man- ufacture in their lines of trade. The St. Louis manufacturers will have such an opportunity as they never had before to push their business. } All the money and labor the manufacturers put into the World's Fair will be a rich investment. The Kaiser upholds the irgolence and folly of officers of the German army toward the people, and he justifies dueling. A very pretty representative of Christianity is Kaiser Billy. He should make one more pilgrimage to the Holy City. Oe : ’ CHEAP TRAVELING. As explained in the Sunday Post-Dispatch, traveling is cheap in these days. One can trot around the earth visiting the mcst important and interesting places—all for $585. It is not necessary to be rich to take such a trip. The jour- ney would be a good conclusion to a boy’s schooling, a sort of final experience in learning, after he leaves high school or college and before he begins active work. Brief though such a journey would be, its value cannot. be overesiimated. The youth who should make it would have some very pleasant and useful gnemories to carry through life. — >> re Perhaps the most heavenly person in the United States is the Rev. C. H. Currens of Chicago. Mr. Currens says: “I never vote; such matters do not interest us. Our citizenship is in heaven; we are aliens and foreigners here. I have no more business to take a vote in affairs here than I would have to go to England and attempt to participate in their government. Heaven is my home.” Should every good citi- zen follow the Currens idea he might have a home in heaven, but he would contribute largely to making a hell of earth, Does heaven really reward any man who neglects his earthly dutfes? ' a The partisan Republican organs who ‘scream “treason” whenever an American citizen ventures to eriticise the mankilling in the Philippines, and demand energetic meas- ures against free speech and a free press, should remember the Sedition act, and what happened tc the Federalist party. a ~~ ~~. It is cheering to learn from Mr. Barrett that Admiral Dewey is hopefyl of a satisfactory settlément of the Philippine prob- lem. It would be highly comforting to the people of the United States if our hero would write this fact to them instead of sending it to London by Politician Barrett. a -— — With etill] another great shoe factory’ begun in 8t. ‘Louis there can be no doubt about the progress of our enormous ‘footwear trade.

With American naval officers singing “Hoch der Kaliser,”’ and British clergymen denouncing him in the church, Emperor Wil- liam may not be wholly enjoying the balmy spring weather. Missouri mules are swimming the Bagbag River and the music of their voices awakes the echoes along that tropical stream. They do not like their Philippine job, but they try to be cheerful. They say over in Arkansas that they have such a strawberry as h+s never been seen there before. As St. Louis js a market for Arkansas, we s'iall have a share in the strawberry happiness of our fortunate neighbors. The Rev.

The pleasant method and beneficial effects of the well known remedy, Syrup or Fies, manufactured by the CaLirorNiIA Fie Syrup Co., illustrate the value of obtaining the liquid laxa- tive principles of plants known to be medicinally laxative and presenting them in the form most refreshing to the taste and acceptable to the system.

Mrs. Fredericka Decker, who is under ob- servation at the City Hospital, is not, ac- cording to Dr. Edward Lowe, mentally de- ranged. The woman was sent to the institution at the instance of her husband, Frank Decker, who is employed at the Meyers Bros.’ Drug Co., Fourth street and Clark avenue. He said his wife had been acting queerly for several days, although she was at no time violent. Dr. Lowe. who conducted the examina- tion of Mrs. Decker when she was received at the hospital, and has since observed her closely. said Thursday: “T do not believe Mrs. Decker its at all insane—in fact, she shows marked intelli- gence in conversation. I have questioned her at length on various subjects and find that her mind is healthy and vigorous. “However, it is possible she may have acted peculiarly at home, as is often the case with persons brooding over troubles.” Mrs. Decker is the mother of five chil- dren and she is much worried over their welfare. “Why I was placed here,” she said to a reporter. ‘“‘I don’t know. My husband came home the other evening, and saying he was going to the City Dispensary, asked me to accompany him. I thought the re- quest rather strange, but he onpiees that he desired treatment at the ispensary, as the doctors there were friends of his. “I finally agreed to go along and when we got there. instead of examining Mr. Decker, they examined me. Then they asked my name and address, which were written on a senall white slip and handed to a man in a blue uniform. He placed me in the ambulance and I was forthwith transferred to this gloomy cell. “T haven't slept much since, because the shrieks of crazy people disturb one’s rest here. “My oldest child ts 14 and the youngest 18 months. They need me at home and to keep me from them Is cruel.” Mrs. Decker is 30 years old and prepos- sessing in appearance. During the morning Mrs. Decker’s mother called. She went inside the cell where her daughter was incarcefated. The scene was affecting. The mother asked permission of the hos- pital authorities to take her daughter away. “IT see no reason why it cannot »be granted,"’ said Dr. Lowe, “though it is cus- tomary to hold observation patients at least a week so that a thorough investiga- tion may be made.” . 7 Dr. Lowe will recommend to Dr. Nietert = ‘een of Mrs. Decker from thé hos- pital.

At At At At At “We need this game,”’ said Tim Donahue. the Chicago's great catcher at the close of the eighth inning of Wednesday's contest bet ween the St. Louis and Chicago clubs. “To win it will do us a great deal of good at home when we open our season on Thureday afternoon, and then &8t. Louls can afford to give us this one."’ A minute later Chicago went in for her last inning. She needed two runs to tie, and there were two men on bases as Donohue went to bat. He struck at the ball desperately, gent it sizzling hot through McKean. That stroke filled the bases, and as subse- quent events proved cooked 8st. Louis’ goose, for after Donohue had filled the bases Callahan got in a beauty bright which Drought in the runs that tied the game. Later others kept the ball rolling, and Chicago, before retiring, had piled up five runs, which gave them a total of seven to St. ‘Louis’ four. The home team, needing three to tia went into the last half of the ninth and did their level best to head off defeat. Blake started the ball with a lI'ne stroke over short, and then there were cheers as Schrekenghost, the St. Louis team’s big catcher, was sent in to take Wilson's place at the bat. Great things were expected of him, but he did ry 2 but h‘t the ball hard to Everett and was flelded out at first. Burkett was cheered tremendously as he 2S hs ~ a oo, Hest.

All the bases were occupied when Me- Kean faced Callahan for the fifth time. He had been hitting the ball hard and the good = stroke. Mac proved equal to the occasion, sendin a daisy cutter to left and as the ball relie there Blake and Burkett scored and the rooters appeared to go into ecstacies. and Only one more run was needed to tie and there were two on bases and only one O'Connor was next to bat and the North arose as one man and begged him to paralyze” the ball. He hit a vicioue one which Callahan stopped, and in which he threw Childs out at third. At that Childs came within an inch of beating the throw and if he had beaten it—well that is an- other story. Stenzel was the last hope, and the last of the old Browns was cheered again and again as he went to the plate. e, how- ever.

IT WAS A HARD FOUGHT BATTLE. At No Stage, However, Did the Cali- fornian Appear to Have a Chance Over His Opponent. & When John L. Sullivan and Jake Kilrain were having their great battle at Richburg, Miss., for the championship of tle svorld, In the 75th round Kilrain stood in the cen- ter of the ring with his hands up. Mike Donovan and Charley Mitchell, hie seconds, saw him standing there and will- ing to go on, but seeing no chance for their man to win, they threw up the sponge. The men who were behind Frank Purcell when he met Jack Moffat, before the West End Club, Wednesday night, might have followed the course of Donovan and Mitch- ell in the Sullivan-Kilrain fight without lay- ing themselves open to criticism. hey should have thrown up the eponge after the 15th round, for from then on Purcell had no chance to win, and their ac- — would have saved him a needless drub- ng. But the men who go behind boxers in St. Louls never appear to see the necessi- ty of their man quitting, and they generaliy send him to the post just so long as he is able to 6tand on his feet and toe the acratch. The contest between Moffat and Purcell was the best that has ever been fought be- tween middleweights in St. Louis. In tne first round Moffat appeared to have a cake- walk, but in the second and third Purcell came back like a good fellow and then on to the 10th he was always ghting, but al- ways getting the worst of it. t wae a fight between a big, game man who knew little of the science of the game, and a small, me man who is a great boxer, specdy with his hands and feet and pos- sessing admirable coolness and generalship. Purcell won many friends by his game, bulldog pluck and hig repeated rallies, but he was no match for the other fellow when it came to going the distance. In a hurri- cane, bruising fight of eix rounds or so he might defeat Moffat, but In a battle where judgment, endurance, and where the hit- and-get-away plan is followed, he will nev- er have a chance against the other fellow. Moffat was given the decision by Referee Joe Stewart at the close of the 2th round, when both were on their feet, and there was not a man who did not praise the verdict. With the big end of the purse neatly stored away in his pocket Moffat, his manager, Sam Pooler, and George Siler, who came down to see the mill, took the midnight train on the Chicago & Alton home. 2 Purcell will remain in St. Louls for a few ays. The curtain raiser Wednesday n'ght was between K'd Page and Jack Christman. They fought four rounds for the 125-pound local championheip, and the verdict was given to Page. To many, however, it looked as though Christman had done just as well as his opponent, and had a draw been de- clared there would have been very little kick coming from any direction. Christman said this morning: “I went into the ring with my left hand sprained. I was told by Dr. Hawley in the morning not to fight with it, but I 4id not want to back out. I also weighed 123 to Page's 118, although the weights were announced 117 and 1 I weighed in with my trunks and a on. I will fight Page at any time again.”’ Caught on the Fly. “A team can't win all the time,” ete. Boston won from Philadelphia Wednesday.

In A special telegram from Jefferson City to the Post-Dispatch Thursday states that it is almost certain Gov. Stephens will not appoint the two Police Commiesioners for St. Louis before the adjournment of the Legislature. He intimated as much to the Post-Dispatch correspondent this morning. It was rumored that he intended to make the appointments this week. He was asked if this were true. No, it is not,’ he replied. “I think I will not be able to make the appointments until about the time of adjournment and [ may not ent them until after the Leg- islature adjourns. I don’t eee how I can very well. I am waiting for certain infor- mation which will assist me in making the appointments.”’ he commissioners, whose terms expired Jan. 1, are Kingsland and Dr. Fore- ter. Both are applicants for re-appoint- ment. Thomas J. Ward is the camaidats for the anti-Brady-Butler element and An- drew J. Biong, chairman of the Democratic City Central Committee, is the candidate of the Brady-Butler combination. The Sen- ate would confirm Kingsland, Forster or Ward forthwith, but there would be some doubt about its confirming Blong.

Blanke Tea and Coffee Co., thus explains the differences between his company and the Lithographers’ Union over the employ- ment of a non-union man: ‘The whole trouble seems to arise out of the fact that a printer we employed about three years ago had some trouble with his union. At the time he entered our employ, we did not ask him whether he belonged to the union. We. did not consider that any oft our business. All we asked of him was to do the work assigned to him. “He showed ability and did his work weil, and about six months ago, when we put in a plant for lithographing tinware. he took charge of it, in connection with our print- ing department. It seems that the trouble he had with his union just about this time came to an open rupture, and the trouble now between our company “and the labor union has resulted from this sonal mat- ter between the union and this ex-member. Several years age I wes asked to dis- neer in my e ] because not belong to the union.

BOEHMER 613 and 615 OLIVE ST. eee ~ [ak INSURANCE. MEN WIN DECISION AFFECTING SUITS IN ARKANSAS IN THEIR FAVOR. HARD RAPS BY THE JUDGE. + He Declares That the Proceedings of the Attorney-General Have So Far Been ‘‘Farcical.”’ Special to the Post-Dispateh. ee LITTLE ROCK, arky April. 27.—As fore- Shadowed in these @iepatches, Judge Jo- seph Martin of the Giréult Court gave At- torney-General Daws'a knock-out blow in a decision handed @own this morning re- garding the anti-trust law. The Attorney General’ construed the-law to cover rate- making by insurance companies in Arkan- Sa3 or elsewhere, thus excluding the old- line companies fromthe State. Ages Martin upholds the constitutional- ity of the act, but limites its force to of- fenses committed in the State of Arkan- sas. The extra-territorial construction given the statue by Attorney-General Davis the court pronounce@ “‘farcical’’ and in his decision he gives that official a few’ sharp raps for his illogical construction of the ~ oat law relative to foreign corpora- ions. Judge Martin hokis that the State has a right to exclude foreign corporations and prohibit them from doing btsiness in the Stater but cannot punish corporations or individuals for violations of the penal code committed in other States. The opinion is very elaborate, containing about 4000 words. and numerous authorities and decisions are cited to demonstrate that the Attorney- General's construction was a new depar- ture and in direct opposition to the rulings of our courts, both State and Federal. for 1 years. Under this decision rating is a conspiracy under:the laws of Arkansas but the extra-territorial feature is elimi- nated. The attorney-General immediately gave notice of appeal and the record will be per- fected to-morrow and submitted Monday next. The case will be given right-of-way on the docket and an early decision is an- icipated. WELCOMING THE NASHVILLE Arrangements for the Reception of the Cruiser at St. Louis River Cities Enthusiastic.

Only a few thousand cigars were confis- cated by the yates revenue officers Thurs- dav in their continued efforts to unearth the revenue stamp fraud. Collector |Gren- ner says he thinks it not unlikely that the Government will return the cigare to the various dealers upon their payment of the revenue tax. : “It is hardly fair to dispose of the goods in any other way,"’ said Mr. Grenner, ‘‘be- cause the purchasers are innocent of any wrongdoing. Under a strict interpretation of the law the goods must be sold, and the eash received for them turned into Uncle Sam’s cash box. But justice must be tem- pered, otherwise several St. Louis dealers may go into bankruptcy. “We have learned that in several in- stances there were caution stamps we the boxes ee cigars of other than the Jacobs brand. here is no charge for a caution stamp, but under the law we are obliged to seize the goods where none is used.” The mere thought of eating an octopus is enough to make the everyday civilized being shudder; yet in the Hawaiian Isl- ands these devil fish, as they are commonly called, are a much-prized delicacy .among the natives, while the imported Chinese and Japs have also acquired the taste, ra ---__eo- SO SENT FREE 10 MEN A Most Remarkable Remedy That Quickly Restores Lost Vigor to len.
