AN EDUCATED WOMAN OF SOUTH- ERN ILLINOIS. Long Called ‘‘a Police Character,” She Has Determined to Fight the Au- thorities From a New Standpoint. A sult was filed Wednesday afternoon in the Circuit Court for $10,000 against Nic Karr, the suverintendent of the Work- house. Tne suit is based on the illegal holding of a prisoner. The plaintiff in the suit Is Mary Duff, and the suit was filed by her attorney, Daisy D. Barbee. This case is a sequel to the habeas corpus proceedings of a few weeks '@go, when, on Miss Barbee’s motion, Judge | Taity of the Criminal Division of the Cir- cult Court granted a writ ordering the women’s release. Mary Duff had been sent to the Work- houe on a fine of $100, carrying with it a six-months term in the Workhouse. Her imprisonment began June 8&8, 1898, and ‘she should have been given her freedom last December. Superintendent Karr declined to open the doors for her at the expiration of her sentence. He held that as ehe had re- fused to work her fine had not been paid. BPven when Miss Barbes demanded her clinent’s release he refused and said that he would keep Mary Duff in prison the re- mainder of her life, unless she chose to work. When Judge Talty passed on the habeas corpue case and ordered her re- lease Mr. Karr changed his mind. ‘ Mary Duff in the role of a plaintiff is a new experience for her. For more than % years she has had cases in. the court with great regularity, but she always ap- peared as a defendant and the police and Workhouse officials had more than a pass- ing acquaintance with her. Mary Duff has been convicted many times of disturbances of the peace, but no charge of theft or other serious offense was sustained against her: Prtned The police say she possesses anarchistic tentiencies, and though she {ts a frail, deli- cate woman she will fight the bizgest po- liceman on the force to defend what she Delieves to be her rights. It was reported that during Mary’s last imprisonment she was kept in the “black cell’ so long that her mind was affected and that her eye-| eight was impaired: An occulist is treating her eyes, but her intellect is as bright as ever. Because Mary Duff’s hand has been against the laws for nearly a quarter of a century it does not follow that she is rough. She is gentle in manner and speech and in conversatfon she displays a knowl- edge that one would not expect from one who has been long called a ‘“‘police char- acter.”’ Mary Duff is slight of stature and rather thin. Her face is pale and the whiteness is doubtless enhanced by the months she passed in the “black cell.”” She has medium- eized gray eyes that look honestly and in- telligently at one through a pair of large- : med, steel spectacles. Her hair is jet black and parted in the middle, is brushed k gett | from the temples. Her face s thin, but there is no superfluity of wrin- les. When she smiles, which ts not often, @ row of white, even, small teeth are dis- Played. Her lips are pale and thin. Her voice is gentile and suave in ordinary con- versation, but the police say she “has an ewful tongue in her head when she gets etarted.”’ ss Though she has fairly won the title of “police character’ Mary Duff is a graduate from two colleges and possesses some lit- erary ability. One of her brothers stood in the top ranks of Illinois jurists not many ears ago, and when he died all Southern llinols henored Judge Duff. Mary Duff was born 48 Franklin County, Ill. She was graduated from. Ewing College. Her father was a farmer and owned one of the largest and most profitable farms in Southern IIlinois. Mary yet retains her interest in a farm of 480 acres left by him.

EARTH SHOOK IN NEW ENGLAND Dishes and Crockery Were Broken, Lamps Thrown From Tables and Chimneys Cracked. HARTFORD, Conn., May 17.—An earth- quake shock was felt in this city about 8:15 o’clock last evening. There was a rumbling sound that lasted a few seconds and many pereons supposed there had been an ex- plosion. The disturbance was distinctly felt and reported from Saybrook, Middletown, East Hampton, New Britain, Cobalt, Colchester, Cromwell, Moodus, Hartford and several of the smaller places along the river. At Mid- dletown the city was startled by what was belleved to be a terrific exlosion. Crockery and bric-a-brac were thrown from the shelves in many residences. At Moodus, when the seismic phenomenon was pro- nounced, a long, low rumbiing was heard distinctly after the loud explosive sound. At Savbrook lampe are reported «to have swayed on the tables and shelves and fallen to the floor. LYNCHED MAN'S HEIRS MAY SUE Federal Court Says a Sheriff Is as Re- sponsible for Life as He Is for Goods. INDIANAPOLIS, Ind., May 17.—Judge Baker of the United States District Court has rendered a decision in which he holds that the heirs of Marion Tyler, who was lynched at Scottsburg several months ago had a right of action for damages against the Sheriff of the county and his bonds- men. The decision was rendered on a motion to overrule a demurrer to the complaint. James F. Gobin, the Sheriff, and his bonds- men were required to answer the complaint within 10 days. The case, which is for $25,000 damages, Is expected to come to trial in about a month. In holding that a Sheriff is résponsibie for the prisoners in his care the court said in part: “If the law imposes a duty of care in respect to animals and goods which he has takem into his yng by virtue of his office why should not the law impose the duty of care upon him in respect to human beings who are in his custody b his office?

POST-DISPATCH SUGGESTED !T. % Replying to Mayor Ziegenhein, the Hero of Santiago Said He Would Try to Come. = St. Louls will probably have an oppor- tunity. to do honor to Rear-~Admiral Win- fileld.Scott Schley, the hero of Santiago. He has telegraphed to Mayor Ziegenhein that he will try to arrange to stop in 8t. Louis on his way back to Washington from Omaha and spend a dey here. When it was first announced that: Rear- Admiral Schley would make a trip to Oma- ha, the Post-Dispatch suggésted to Mayor ee that he extend «to the hero an invitation to visit St. Louis. The Mayor sai he would do so, “Admiral Schley has so many friends in St. Louis,” said Mayor Ziegenhein, ‘‘that I am sure he will accept the invitation.”’ In accordance with his promise to the Post-Dispatch the Mayor sent the follow- ing telegram to Admiral] Schley Tuesday: ST. LOUIS, May 15. Rear Admiral Schley, Navy Department, Washington, D. C.—Recognizing the inestim- able service you rendered your country during the war with Spain, the City of St. Louis would take great pleasure in testifring to that appreciation. I therefore invite you to honor this city with a visit during your Western trip. I trust you will find it convenient to grant the request, and favor us with an early reply. HPNRY ZIBGENHEIN. Mayor of St. Louis. Wednesday morning the following tele gram was received in reply: WASHINGTON, D. C., The Mayor of St. Louls—-Many thanks for your kind invitation. If I can arrange on re- turn trip to stop over a day, it will give me pleasure. I will wire you from Omaha. W. 8. SCHLEY. The Rear Admiral had made his arrange- ments to go straight to Omaha and the St. Louis invitation was received too late to change his plans. As it will apparently be easy to arrange to stop here on the return trip, and the Rear Admirai is known to be punctilious ahout the asknowledgment of courtesies, it can be announced almost with positive- nese that he will come. He is expected to start back East about the middle of next week. He should in St. Louis next Wednesday or Thursday. As soon as the telegram is received from Omaha definitely announcing when the, Rear Admiral will arrive, Mayor Ziegennein will call a meeting to make arrangements for his reception. WILD MAN IN THE WILLOWS. Madison and Venice People Organized and Hunting for a Supposedly Insane Stranger. — May 16. Between Madison and East Madison lies | a strip of willows covering a territory of | about one quarter of a mile square, which | presents a wild view. While Miss Pansy | Hayes, a 14-year-old schoolgirl was passing | this strip of willows on her way to school about 8:30 o’clock yesterday morning, she | was horrified to see a nude man through the willows. At noon, while the children were return- ing home to dinner, the man was again seen by a party of schoolboys, who re- ported the affair to Marshal John Mehan and Officer Pat McCambridge. The officers, with about 50 men and boys, organized a hunting party, and sur- rounded the willows,“and a man hunt was in progress until 5 o'clock, but no traces or clews were found of the wild man, It is supposed he escaped from Edwardsville and made his way to Madison, where he has been in hiding.

SKY ROCKETS AND BOMBS FILLED THE ATR. Premature Exhibition of Pyrotechnics in Process of Manufacture for the Fourth of July and Dewey. A daylight fireworks display which was almost as brilliant as if it had taken place at night, was provided for the people of Fireworks Station eWdnesday morning. It was not intended asa display. It just hap- pened. Three miles out of East St. Louis in the American bottom is Fireworks Station. It is not so named because of the anti-absti- nence proclivities of the inhabitants. It de- rives its name from the fireworks factory which with half a dozen dwellings consti- tute the village. The factory, instead of occupying one large building, consists of about 2% small Structures ranged along each side of a wide street at considerable distance apart. The arrangement is designed to prevent the whole ‘‘shooting match” going off at the same time in,the event of fire, which oc- curs frequently. 4 About 8 o'clock Wednesday morning fire broke out in one of the small buildings, in which a large quantity of sky rockets, roman candles, aerial bombs, ‘nigger chasers’’ and other patriotic devices had been stored for Fourth of July purposes. When a fireworks cottage goes to burn- ing, long experience has taught the em- ployes and residents to just leave it alone and stand from under. To fight it is like charging a band of Filipinos in a jungle. One who goes within range is liable to comme back with a skyrocket stuck through his stomach or roman candle balls where his eyes ought to be. So when the alarm was given Wednesday morning the people got out in the open and watched the fun. -It began without delay. A few desultory pops on the inside of the building were followed by a muffled roar as a lot of bombs let go in a bumch. Flames mirst through the roof and the performance was on. A great rocket soared aloft, curved gracefully and exploded like a shell from the Nashville. As though it had beén a signal fur the firing All along the line, a shower of candles and rockets filled the air. That was only a good be- ginning. As the fire spread the discharge of the Fourth of July anftmunition became incessant. Red fire gave a lurid hue to the display..It was as though a million demons were on a wild West jamoburee. Presently some of them seemed to get the range of the group of watchers and a volley was sent in their direction, which made them scurry to places of greater safety. An attempt to prolong the show was then made by bombarding some of the other cottages, but they are built to withstand such attacks and no harm was done. When all the long range ammunition had been expended the employes came nearer and watched the flery snakes and other grewsome inventions writhing in the ashes. On account of the darkness of the morn- ing the display was almost as effective as though it had occurred at night. As far as could be learned nobody was hurt. Spontaneous combustion is assigned as the cause. WILD RACE ON MT.

WALKED IN HER SLEEP FROM A THIRD-STORY WINDOW, She Is Eighty Years Old, but Not a Bone Broken—Was Found Sitting Up on the Pavement. | | Mrs, Sophia Belven, 82 years old, who lives in the rear of 166 South Broadway, ment at an early hour Wednesday morn- ing and was unhurt. Her escape from injury Is the most re- markable in the record of accidents in St. Louls. She fell out of a window of her room on the third floor while walking in her sleep. While she did not pick herself up and climb the stairs as soon as she struck the ground, Mrs, Bleven was in a sitting posture when a neighbor, aroused by the noise of the fall, arrived. Dr. Robert Schleuter examined her and found absolutely no result of the fall ex- “~ an abrasion of the skin on one elbow. t is remarkable that the woman was not crushed to death. Her bones are dried with age and should be brittle almost as glass. She weighs less than 6 pounds. Mrs, Belven remained fa bed Wednesday. She had not lost consciousness at any time. At noon she said there was a slight feeling of soreness in her back and she com- plained of the annoyance of a cough with which she has been suffering some time. Mrs. Belven lives with a married daughter, Mrs. August Schiele. The latter fully ex- pected to find her mother dead and mangled when a neighbor roused her about 3 o'clock and told her excitedly that the “grandma,” as Mrs. Belven is known in the tenement yard, had fallen out of the window. Mrs. Schiele is now only anxious about her mother’s cough. JULES §=DE ~=—LISLE ~—DEAD. Life-long Resident of St. Louis Passes Away in a Dallas, Tex., Sanitarium. ‘A special telegram to the Post-Dispatch Wednesday morning from. Dallas, Tex., conveyed the information that Jules M. de Lisle of this city died at St. Paul's Sanita- rium in Dallas Monday evening. Mr. De Lisle was 67 years old and a life- long resident of St. Louis. His death was pnexpected. He left St. Louis last Saturday morning with his sis- ter, Mrs. George H,. Lanham, expecting to pass the summer at Mrs. Lanham’'s home in Laredo, Tex. Monday morning Mr. De Lisle’s relatives here were intormed by wire that he had been taken suddenly ill and had stopped in Dallas. Later his brother, Leon, with wnom he lived, at 1819 Biddle street, was informed by wire of his death. The relatives do not know the nature of the malady that caused Mr. De Lisle’s de- mise. “He had been in feeble health geveral months,’’ said his brother, Leon, “but we are at a loss to know the cause of his death. Monday, when we received the first message from Mrs. Lanham, we feared he was the victim of an accident.”’ The deceased was for 13 years cashier in the Watter Rates office and for several years was identified with the St. Louis Gag Co. He was a cousin of the late Soc New- man, president of that corporation. He was one of the original members of the old Volunteer Fire Department and will be remembered by many of the older residents of the city. His wife died sey- VANCOUVER, B.

GREENVILLE, Mo (By Messenger to Williamsville), May 17.—Hiram N. riouedxy was buried at Williamsville yesterday, Dut Greenville has not returned to work. The sawmills are still idle. The people still find no better occupation than discussing the tragedy. The dingy little courthouse, which Holladay tried to have veplaced | with a more commodious structure, ts ! crowded to discomfort with Greenville folk and the overflow of people stand about in the grassy courtyard or across the way in two beer saloons. The tension on the nerves of these people is very strong. Johnson, the slayer of Holladay, is to have his preliminary hearing to-day, and the community has not yet decided wheth- er to forgive and applaud Johnson or con- demn and punish him, and the discussions going on in the courtroom, in the court- yard and in the beer saloons across the way are going to determine his fate. This does not mean mob law, of the kind they have down South. It means mob law will decide Johnson’s fate in a law-abiding manner. Whatever the people of Greenville decide shall be done in the case will be done. Every juror that comes to pass upon the killing will act as popular will dictates. That is why Johr.son listens intently when pedestrians pass under the window of his cell and’ pays no attention to the groups that occasionally form across the street from the jail. He wants to hear what the people say and anticipate the popular ver- dict. There are two opinions in the town—both positive. One is that Johnson should suf- fer for wilful murder; the other that he should be released. Johnson’s statement that he long ago suspected and warned his wife makes a goood many people believe that his crime was actuated by revenge, that {t was premeditated murder. People unused to the ways of the busy world are also loath to believe that a puulic benefac- tor like Mr. Holladay, who worked harder than any body else and went tv ehurch oftener, would do what Johnson charges against him. The people who want to let the law take its course (which means the gibbet) say Johnson had murder in his heart from the first time he suspected his wife and that other means were available then to repair whatever damage had been done. They do not believe he killed Holla- day in the heat of passion. Johnson's supporters argue loudly that unless a husband a! father is te protect his home against the power of wealth there will be no end to immorality and a reign of licentiousness. They aver that Johnsen was compelled to adopt seemingly sneak.ng methods in order to cope with the man who had wrecked his home. He was fighting the devil with fire, say Johnson's friends, when he Hed to his wife about going to St. Louls and lay in wait behind the wood pile to kill a man. Johneon is not satisfied with the outlook. He is neither fearful nor confident—just anxious. Johnson looks like the kind of man who would shoot at a human being as quickly as at a panther, providing there was provocation in his own mind. His eyes seem to say that, when he talks about the crime. There ia an uncomfortabie chill generated by the steady, penetrating gaze of Johnson's cold gray-blue eyes. They are not sharp or dull. They do not blink. The eyes simply look at you in a way that you remember and dislike. Johnson is 53 years old. He wears a long, drooping mustacne. It ja heavy and sandy in color.

I knew he would kill me if he had a chance.” After the shooting Johnson walked hur- riediy our of the house to the Centra! Hotel, about 100 yards awey. He aroused two friends, who went with him to Sheriff Schiater to surrender. It was then about midnight. A crowd had collected at the Johnson home. Johnson was placed in the keeping of Deputy-Sherif?

An extract from his letter follows: “It is not necessary for one to know the honest men in the present legislature by being personally acquainted with them, hence it is not necessary for me to know you personally to ascertain that you do your utmost to represent the welfare of the whole people. The bill before your body to consolidate the street car interests of thig city is so vicious in principle and in its ultimate effects that no patriotic citizen can support it. Patriotic and honest men in the Democratic and in the Republican party must defeat this bill if possbble. “T know that this will be a hard task and you may fail, and should you see that you are going to fai] in this would suggest that you offer an amendment in substance as follows: ‘Prevméd. ‘that before this act shall be carried into effect by any com- pany or companies safd company or coni- panies shall reduce the fare for adults to 4 cents when a éeat:is provided, 2:cents for adults when,they are. compelled to stand and 2 cents for childrén under 10 years of age; provided further, that said company or companies shall be compelled to give a transfer to each and every passenger at each and every point where the track or tracks of said railroad or railroads inter- ‘sect, cross or join themselves or “eacir . other,’ ”’ a hee BARTHS GET THEIR MONEY.

WASHINGTON, May 17.—Secretary Alger has given the Washington correspundents of Administration papers to. underetand that he ts administering daily punishment to Gen. Miles; that the War Department is executing an unwritten order to humiliate the man who exposed the incapacity of that department and gave the term “‘embahned ‘beef’ to the English language. ‘Gen.

He is caqnsulted abcut nothing, and so far as official information goes the “General Commanding the United States 'Army’’ does not know that we are at war with the Filipinos. No information from Manila, Havana or San Juan come to him, and no order sent to Gen. Otis is sub- mitted to Miles. In the present organization of the war office, Gen. Miles is a fiction. He has not real existence. In the absence of Secretary Alger, Adjutant-General Corbin runs the military machine of the Government. Alger and Corbin, in the language of a subordi- nate, are as ‘“‘thick as hops,’ and it is evi- dent that they have at least a tacit under- standing that Gen.

St. Louis Sportsmen Stood Well Up to the Fore, Not Even the Crack Shots Downing Them. — A pouring rain Wednesday delayed the State shoot and made Dupont Park a sea of mud, through which the shooters waded and splashed. About 10:30 o'clock, however, it began to clear and soon the marksmen began popping away in great shape on the ll mud-pile eventa. Mrs. Shattock was out in all the wet and some new men reported, among them J. D. B. Debows, Capt. Meaders, W. R. Elli- son and Frank Hegler, Nashville; Dr. C. B. Clapp, Moberly; G. W. Haydes, Paris. The Handicap Committee made its report of entries up to noon for the Republic Cup shoot, fixing these distances: Thirty-one yards—Powers, Gilbert, Mar- shal, Heikes, MeMurchy, Jim Ell.ott, Budd, Fanning, Parmalee, Crosby. Thirty yards—J. B. Porter, Elliston, C. Young, Gottlieb, Money, Wilmot, Kimball. Twenty-nine yards—jey, Sweet, Hick- man, J. A. Jackson, Daniels, Sedam, Grant Neal, W. S. Allen. Twenty-eight yards-—Stockton, Mason, Nipper, George, Hargraves, Curtice, Mc- Brown, Nimrod, Caevkr.ll, Walden, Prender- gast, Collins, Fletcher, Riehl, Hilly, Lemm. Twenty-seven yards—Painter, Brueck, Schartz, Clapp. ‘ About 75 entries, all told, were expected in this event, but chey were slow coming i n. The birds that arrived Wednesday were strong, hearty fellows, and every one made a good fight. Tha shoot for the Republic cup began at 10:45 o’clock Wednesday on Traps 2, with J. B. Porter, J. E: Riley, McBrown, E. 8. Fletcher and G. M. Walden in the first squad. The sun was behind a cioud, but it slipped out as J. B. Porter stepped to the 30-yard mark. The shooting was in “blocks of five,’’ and Porter lost the first bird handily. Riley caught with his one barrel and Dr. tarkloff, on the 28-yard line, got his on the second barrel, a beau- tiful shot, after it had almost reached the fence. Fletcher's bird was winged twice, but it circled around and escaped. Walden, at 28 yards, lost his, and three out of the first five had been missed. Then the shooting picked up a bit and misses became rarer, the squad finishing their first round with Brown &, Walden 3 and the others 4 aplece. This squad went to Trap 1 and the second squad was called, The second squad was headed by Jim El- Hott, 31 yards, followed by Riehl, 28; Cros- by, 31; Jackson, 29; Hickman, 29. Elliott got his first one with both barrels and Riehl, Crosby, Jackson and Hickman did the same. The squad finished and went Sf Pf ad sh? HANEY M’MURCHY. to the other traps and squad No. 8 took its place. The pace was fast and the work was good, some especially fine shots win- ning rousds of apnlause. The St. Louis crowd stood up well to the fore all morning, not even the cracks down- ing them, ‘the first man to make a straight clean five being Dr. Sterkloff. The con- test will finish this afternoon, unless the shooting off of a tie delays it. Of the cracks and the first 10 birds, Budd, Jim Elliott and McMurchy made clean scores, Powers missed one, Gilbert missed three, Marshall one, Jim Porter missed wo, J. E. Riley one, Dr. Starkloff one in his second five. Jackson and Hickman, 29-yard age made clean scores, so did Riehl, 2 yarde. Other clean scores on the first 10 birds were made by Cockrill; Daniels,. Sedam, Young, Gottlieb, Neal, Curtice, Lemm, Par- malee, Kimball, Fanning, Prendergast, Coli- lins, Gay and Spencer. These lost one apiece: George, Grant, Schwarz, Daniels, Wilmot and Clapp. Gilbert's loss of three out of 10 was much commented on and was thought to put him virtually out of the race. In the first ‘Mud Pie” shoot these made clean scores}! Jim Elliott, Connor, Crosby, F. Gilbert, Sedam, Courtney, Cadwaldo, Mrs. Shattuck and Chage. Mrs. Shattuck made 13 in the second tar- get shoot.

Portc Rico’s Liberal Leader Tells Why His Party Condemns the Adminis- tration of the Late Military Governor. (Correspondence of the Associated Press.) SAN JUAN, Porto Rico, May 11.—The arrival on Monday of Brig.-Gen. Davis, the new Military Governor, was marked by the greatest simplicity. Porto Ricans and Spaniards alike regarded with astonishment the democratic conduct of Gen. Davis, which was in marked contrast to the bear- ing of the Spanish Governors General, when those haughty officials came a whole day was usually given up to demonstra- tions by military and civil bodies, all the guns of Morro and San Cristobe] boomed, and the water front was lined with bDril- Mantly”garbed troops and officials. In this instance there was not the least ostentation. Early risers heard the distant booming of a few guns at a Morro point as the transport McPherson entered the harbor, but very few were aware of what it signified. An aide of Maj.-Gen. Henry, the retiring Military Governor, boarded the vessel to present the compliments of his chief. After breakfast Gen. Davis, ac- companied by his aide, Lieut. Langhorn, made a landing from the gangway of the ship by m4 ing deftly over several bum boats that ocked the way and, entering the carriage of Gen. Henry, drove imme- diately to the palace where Gen. Davjs was g00n {nstalied in the Fortaleza. The new Governor begins his administra- tion with no special problem except what his instructions or policy may involve. Be- fore departing on the McPherson, Gen. ‘Henry held frequent, conferences with his geuccessor regarding the affairs of the is- land. During the last two weeks Gen. Henry's staff had addressed itself to clear- ing up all old matters requiring the per- s nal attention of the retiring governor 22d so well was this work done that there ‘wes nothing of importance undisposed of when Gen, Davis undertook his new func- tions. Tuesday afternoon, the day after the arrival of Gen. Davis, Gen. Henry and his family embarked. The scene must have been a gratifying one to him. Brilliantly dressed from stem to stern in flying signal flags, the McPherson fairly shone in the ,afternoon sun from the effect of white — and much scrubbing. ae | - ~ g + : - © Fe le , Te : at a * ’ Sat Pe. 3 y 2 ‘ ¥ f ot . - A t . ‘ 7 ae ’ ‘: e wey» ie , 4 £ . : ¥ =) 2 wie 4 is re .

Ella stood out among the currant bushes, while Josie Hall, her boarding school mate and dearest friend, leaned over the garden wall. “Dear, dear, how dreadful!” said Josie, in sympathetic accents. “Not so bad, after all,’ retorted Ella, stooping to gather a four-leaved clover. Mrs. Coxe is a very nice sort of woman, if grandpa fancies her—and in case they should get married, you see I am free to zo to New York and take those drawing and painting lessons that I have sighed for so long.”’ “But she !s such a horrible old scandal- monger!”’ “That's a fashionable failing.” “And she goes patting around in those plush slippers like a supernatural pussy cat—and she talks about the dear Squire!” “Well, why shouldn’t she?” “Oh,” said Josie, with a careless toss of the head, “if you're satisfied no one else should object.”’ The Squire had finished the newspaper when Ella returned to the house, ad “Where have you been, my dear?’ demanded blandly. “Down in the garden, grandpapa, after currants.” ‘And where is Mrs. Coxe?’’ “In the kitchen.” “What is she doing?” ‘‘Making lemon pies, grandpapa, I be- lieve, and getting ready to presérve goose- berries.”’ ‘“Ah-h-h-h!" said the squire, comfortably nodding his head. ‘‘Nice woman, ‘Mrs. Coxe.

Half an hour afterward the hired hand, Moses Mickell, came up to where Miss Witherley was weeding her flower beds. “You couldn’t spare me a little cookin’ soda, Miss Ella, could you?’ he asked, in a mysterious whisper. “Cooking soda, Moses?

St. Louis is arranging for a World’s Fair in 1993 to commemorate the 100th anniver- sary of the purchase by Thomas Jefferson of Napoleon of the Louisiana territory, and it promises to surpass in magnitude the Worki's Fair at Chicago. in 1398, or any previous world’s exposition. The citizens of St. Louis have practically subscribed $6,000,000 to the project. The Legislature of Missouri! has appropriated $1,000,000 for the State, or $200,000 more than Illinois appropriated for tthe Chicago World’s Fair, and has authorized the city of &t. ‘Louis to issue bonds in the. sum of $5,000,000 in aid of the enterprise, and Con- grees will be asked to appropriate another 5,000,000, which seems to be assured, All thie money is to be advanced as a loan, and not a cent to be used until the entire amount is provided for. All the States of the original Louisiana purchase can be al- most certainly counted upon to make very liberal appropriations, as they are mani- festing already great interest in the ex- position. The St. Louis people are highly sanguine of the success that awaits their efforts. They claim that every State in the Union and every civilized country on the globe will be represented. In this progressive age an international exposition should be held in the United States every ten years, as advances in sci- ence and progress of the world generally ustify if not require it. Furthermore, the Inited States occupies a different position among the nations of the world from what she did five years, or even one year ago, and the people of other countries will flock there in much larger numbers than they did to the Columbian exposition, or than they would have before our war with Spain, AGAIN.

Single Taxers are not aliwise, but they have discovered ths intent of a natural law in rent, that will give to the worker all the product, without making him a slave to his creature Government or any one else.

Splendid Enterprise. From the Jefferson City (Mo.) Democrat. The World's Fair fund in St. Louis has reached the magnificent mark <, nearly $5,000,000. Missouri congratulates herself on the splendid enterprise of her citizens. It seems almost incredible that in compara- tively so short a time such an tmmense undertaking should have already crystai- lized into one of the biggest enterprises of the kind that has ever en place in this country of big events. A Big Fight Coming. From the Peoria (Lll.) Herald-Transcript. St. Louls can do nothing so far as settin aside the order of Alger is concerned, ant the water will be let into the drainage channel. But there is no doubt that they will put up a big fight when the matter comes before Congress as to sanctioning the order of the Secretary. An Old-Fashioned Trust. From the Peoria (Ill.)

But the fact Is that the ol@ 12 inches deep ; patriots did have a small religious trust. fuNcy FOR (WeELVE AT (ost OF $5.

Those who attended the Fair Grounds meeting Tuesday made note of the wonder- fully changed behavior of the jockeys. Be- fore the races Starter Bruen called all the jockeys before him and, as one of them put it, ‘told them how it happened.” In other words, Mr. Bruen notified all that whether their name was Noakes, Stokes or Blokes he would treat them all alike and that the rider who rode through the starting gate would pay $25 for that pleasure and $25 for every time he pulled up and broke up a start, and these fines would stick every time. The result of this lecture was a won- derful transformation scene during the day. Not a boy broke through the starting gate and there was no pulling up in any of the events. The starts were prompt and good. The capture of the second race on Tues- day by Invocation, Mr. Maffitt’s filly, was & great satisfaction to the many friends of that gentlemar and to the friends of Mr. Baker, Mr. Maffitt's trainer. The black and white stripes are always ‘“‘out for it’’ and their victory is always a iy try! one.

The locals started their rungetting in the second inning, when they pushed one run over the plate, In the third they landed on young Me- Gee’s curves and batted in three runs. The slugging of the home team was too strong for the Colonel's twirler McG2e, and in this inning he retired of his own free will in favor of Woods, who did Httle bet- ter. The other tallies were scored as fol- lows: Two in the fourth, one in the sev- enth and one in the eighth. Louisville scored one run in the third in- ning and two in the seventh. The game Tuesday was a renetition of the one ot Monday. It was siow and sluggiss. Noth- ing out of the ordinary was done by the Colonels, who seemed to be outciassed in every department. Talbot, who pitched for the Belleville Clerks last year and who went East with Lew Whistler, rege pd of the Syracuse Club of the Eastern ague, has been re- leased. He was a mark for ali clubs he was sent against. George Winters, another local boy who went with Whistler, is playing regular in the outfield, and is said to be one of the star flelders of that le ague On May Wi, in a game against the Springfield team, Sy- racuse made 10 hits off of the opposing pitcher.

Sockalexis, the Indian player of the Cleve- land Exiles went into the Lyceum Thea- ter at Cleveland the other night, fell asleep and snored so loud he interrupted the formance. He was arrested for disturbin a the peace, and on the way to the station tried to lick seven policemen. They say Sockalexis will never be forgiven for his conduct on this occasion and that he will never a be allowed to play on the Clevela team. The St. Louls friends of Manager Wat- kins, late of the Pittsburg Club, are not in the least surprised to hear of Watkins resigning the managership of the Pirates. When Wattie was here several weeks ago with the Smoky City aggregation he was not at all pleased with the way things were running and expressed his intention of quitting the game unless there was a great ase Last week Watkins took Capt. Ely from short and substituted Madison. Then he called in McCreery from center field. He had good reason to make this move. Both men had fallen off in their batting and they fielded their posit:ons like ‘babies.’ On Juesday, Watkins resigned. The only excuse he had was that he has some busi- ness of his own to look after. The real reason, however, is believed to be Donovan. Patsy is a bosom friend of President Kerr and was manager of the Pirates before Watkine accepted the position. Of late Patsy has not been following out Watkins’ orders and the latter decided that he would quit the game. Immediately after Watkins’ resignation, President Kerr appointed Donovan as man- ager. Donovan announces that Ely will be put back at short and McCreery in his po- sition in center field. The story told in “Les Miserables” of Jean Valjean lifting a weight that ® ordinary men could not lft has its counterpart in the story told by Chicago papers of Hans Wagner, the third baseman of the Louis- ville Club. According to it, Hans lifted a cable car from the ground when it was eruehing the life out of a human being. The Inter-OCean telis the story in this way: “Hans Wagner of the Louisvilles has made a record a6 a hianeear in Chicago. “It appears that on Saturday night Wag- ner happened to be crossing Wabash ave- nue just as a cable train turned the Mad- ison street corner.

Then he picked up the stran who, strange to relate, wae a good pot more frightened than hurt. A crowd quick- ly gathered and discovered that the rescued man was a deaf mute.

The East St. Louis Horseman Has a Lively Experience While Driving Through Central Park, N. Y. a Special to the Post-Dispatch. NEW YORK, May 17.—John S. Bratton, horeeman and coach, of St. Louis is no small-sized hero to-day. He wrecked his coach on an L pillar, piled three prize-win- ning horses in a heap and gent the occu- pants of the coaoh on a whirl through the air—to save a wee tot’s life. He suc- ceeded. One of the unique features of yesterday's open air horse show was a contest be- tween four-in-hands for $200 in plate given by the Waldorf-Astoria. The start was to be from the big hotel and the yl! that made the best time and arrived in the — condition at Manhattan Field was to win. There were but two entries, Bratton’s $3000 four and Charles F. Bates’ prize- winning four. Mr. (Bratton had his team hitched to a heavy road brake, while Mr. Bates drove the regulation cumbersome coach. There were a number of men, friends of the contestants, on each vehicle. The teams were not supposed to race, but they went at a clipping pace even u crowded Fifth avenue to the park. Throug the latter they kept to the east drive and all the way the park regulations as to speed were ignored. (Mr. Bratton took the lead at the start and held it all through the park, while the mounted policemen yelled themselves hoarse trying to make the drivers slow down. Seven miles an hour is the speed limit in the park, but the rival coaches ‘hit it up close to an 18-mile gait. _ The coach entrance to the grounds is about 200 feet west of Eighth avenue, on One Hundred and Fifty-fifth street. There was a big crowd at the corner. Mr. Bratton was leading by a block and a half when he reached the last turn. Just as he was swinging the leaders around he saw a little boy standing directly in his path. There were only two things to do— run down the little boy or wreck the out- fit and take the chances of all hands on the brake coming out of the wreck alive. Mr. Bratton only had a fraction of a sec- ond to think. He turned the four into the “L”’ pillar. Fortunately, the near leader slipped and fell, dragging the other horse with him. The two wheelers were hurled on top of the fallen leaders and then tilted sidewise, all but going over. The little boy was oaee, but Mr. Bratton’s rig was in a bad sha The horse that first fell was bleeding ba “ and it was feared at first it would have is be killed. While Mr. Bratton and his friends in the coach—Guy Ward, Irvine Taylor and David N. Neuberger—were pe themselves to- gether after the shock, Fatty Bates and his ceach full of friends shot past, and the next instant entered the grounds, where he was declared the winner. In the fox chase, Mr. Bratton, who weighs 230 pounds, was one of the riders and got the blue ribbon for his marvelous nerve in taking the jumps in fying fashion. John 8. Bratton of East St. Louls cap- tured five prizes at the New York Horse Show Tuesday. He won with Wilber, in the 2:12% trotting class; Saxton, in the high-stepping class; Euchre, best thor- oughbred hunter; Inconstance, best walk, trot and canter saddle horse, and Little Boy Perfect, in the pony class, under 12 hands.

NANNIE CURRY KREBS IN- TENDED TO COWHIDE HIM. SHE HAD A WHIP WITH HER. But Pope Hod a Lawyer Dismiss His Suit Against Mrs. Krebs and She Missed Him. R. CG.’ Pope would probably have been given a warm reception if he had appeared Mm Judge Ferriss’ court Wednesday to prosecute his suit for an alleged indebted- ness of $2726 against Mrs. Nannie Curry Krebs. The frate defendant was on hand to de- fen dher case in more ways than one. She was armed with.a small raw-hide whip, which, she told her attorney, John J. O'Connor, she intended to use freely on the plaintiff for what, she termed, his presump- tion in bringing euit against her. Mrs. Krebs was Miss Nannie Curry when Pope filed his suit against her. He claimed that she had borrowé@d $2726 from him which she had refused to pay. Mré, Krebs tells ancther story. She says Pope kept company with her for a long time and wanted to marry her. She declares, how- ever, that she did not look with favor on his sult, preferring her present husband, Henry Krebs. She says that when she told Pope of her intention to marry Krebs he filed the suit against her without any ground for the proceeding, but simply to gratify his spite. His action didn’t cause her much worry, she saye, but she determined immediately to punish him if the opportunity should ever come to her. When she went to the courtroom Wedneés- day she was accompanied by her sister. Her attorney says both carried whips and were in a humor to use them. But he ad- vised them to let Pope go in peace and not to attack him. Pope concluded to dismiss the suit Tues- day afternoon and endeavored to induce the court to allow him to dismiss it then. He was informed that the prope? time to dismiss it was upon its call Wednesday morning. He said he did not want to ap- pear in court then, and was very nervous when he saw that he would be compelled to do so. When the case was called Wednes- day, an attorney whom he had retained dismissed the suit, saying he had decided not to prosecute it further.

The American Warship Caused Con- gternation by Her Boldness and Got One Consul in Trouble. WASHINGTON, May 17.—The Navy De- partment has just received from Com- mander Todd of the Wilmington an inter- esting account of the remarkable voyage of an exploration of the Amazon River, made by that vessel in April last. The Wilmington was inetructed by the Navy Department to push on up the great river and ascertain how far it was navigable. Capt. Todd reports that he ascended to Yuquitos, in Peru, which is about 2100 miles up the river. This voyage was made, as he says, against an adveree current ave- raging three knots for the entire distance. Manaos, at the junction of the Rio Negro with the Amazon, has heretofore been re- garded as the head of navigation for steam vessels and from that fact it has grown to be a prosperous city of 40,000 inhabitante. Consequently the intention of Capt. Todd to ascend the river above that point caused consternation and in the end, as revealed by subsequent reports, led to some adverse demonstrations against the American Con- eul and against the native pilots, who as- sisted the Wtlmington’'s commander to make the voyage. Capt. ‘Tod succeeded, notwithstanding these obstacles, in ascending the river for 1000 miles above Manaos and, had it not been for lack of fuel, he could have steamed about 300 miles further, be believes. As it was, the Wilmington, which entered the Amazon from the Atlantic ocean, was with- in about 400 miles of the Pacific and well into Peru before @ehe turned back The possibilities of the successful naviga- tion of the vast and hitherto unknown 3 terior of South America revealed by Ca Todd's voyage will, it is behNeved, ‘eg of t greatest coromercial importance, Cape Todd shows that the Amazon, like the Mississippi, so changeable in ite channels as not to permit of successful charting, so that expert pilots will always be required.

Petition for Injunction Against the Commissioners. Special to the Post-Dispatch. LITTLE ROCK, Ark., May 17.—Attorney- General Jeff Davis filed a petition in the Pulaski court this morning enjoining the Governor and the State House Commission from proceeding any further in the prelim- inary arrangements for the construction of a new State Capitol, authorized by an act of the recent Legislature. The Attorney-Gen- ral holds that the act is unconstitutional, because it carried with it an appro riation which, according to a provision of the con- stitution, requires that all bills of such a character shall receive a two-thirds vote of two branches of the Legislature, which this failed to get in the House. His second con- tention is that the bill provided for the removal of the Penitentiary upon the site of which the new Capitol is to be built, the constitution prohibiting more than one subject to be contained in a bill, that the titie must be clear and explicit in its ex- planation of the subject, but that in this case no reference whatever is made to the ed removal of the Penitentiary. do not know whether the injunction ee etand or not,” sald Mr. Davis, “but am going to give it a whirl, anyway. t ore Commissioners have had several meetings since the adjournment of the Lez- isiature, organized and selected an architect and their warrants for expenses have been by the Auditor and paid by the in on accordingly »s SEE MEROHANTS’ EXCHANGE, May 17.

Over a maforit of the southern counties the total rainfall for the seven days ending with the 13th ex- ceeded 2 inches, and over the extreme southern counties it ranged from 4 to 6 inches, very heavy downpours occuring in localities, washing out corn and Gooding lowlands. ‘Over the central and northern portions of the State the rainfall generally ranged from one-half inch to 2 Inches, Con- siderable damage was done by hail in a few counties.

A large amount of planting is yet to be done in the central and southern counties. Although the heavy rains and cool! nights have been unfa@or- able, corn is generally coming up well. Considerable replanting will be necessary in some of the southern counties, where flelds were badly washed, and damage by worms is reported In a few localities. So far. how. ever, much less damage has been done by cut and wire worms than usual. In southern counties flelds are foul; the rains portions of Pemiscot and Butler Counties the stand ta reported poor.

In some of the southeastern counties meadows are reported very weedy. Potatoes and gar- dens are generally doing nicely, except that in the southern counties they are getting very weedy.

Col. Wetmore Formally Announces That He Is Not a Candidate for Governor or Anything Else. Saya Col. M. C Wetmore says he is not now, and does not expect to be, a candidate for Governor of Missouri. : He made thig announcement at the close of an address to the Tobacco Workers’ Union at Waihalla Hall Tuesday night. It was called forth by shouts of “What is the matter with Wetmore for Governor?” | ‘“My ambition,” said Col, Wetmore, ‘is not to be Governor of Missouri, but the head of some successful mercantile or man- ufacturing establishment.”’ Col. Wetmore had just completed a lengthy address on ‘“Trusts,”” and his de- nunciation of these institutions had aroused his hearers to such enthusiasm that thoy were prepared immediately to launch his boom for Governor. He quitkby suppressed thelr enthusiasm in that direction, how- ever, by assuring them that he was con- tent. to remain @ private citigen. Col, Wetmore was the principal er at the meeting. He was escorted from the Planters’ Hotel to the hall by a committee consisting of John White and niel Sweeney and Missa Nellie Carson and Miss Margaret Chalk. FELL IN WITH A DIE SHARK..

An Interestirg fact has juat come to light which strikingly exemplifies the wonderful etriies of modern science, It is & case in which a warrior from the great battle of Omdurman, who suffered a serious facial disfigurement, hes had his disfigurement obliterated, and his features made to ap- ear to all intents and purposes as per- ect as if nothing had happened. In short, he had the greater part of his nose cut clean off, ot he has been provided with a new nose. This hero of the Soudan, by name Sergt. Freeman, is a member of the Twenty-first Lancere, and he took rt in the memorable charge at Omdurman. During the charge one of the lieutenants of the lancers was attacked by a | rvish, who, getting hold of the officer's right hand, in which he carried his lance, com- menced indusiriously sawing at the wrist with his eword, with the evident Intention of severing the hand. Sergt, Freeman was fighting his way through a bunch of Der- vishes when he heard the young officer, who was Lieut. Meachem, cry out, and, turning, saw the predicament in whie he was placed. He made a dash for the spot, and, running his lance through the Dervigh, saved the HMeutenant. However, at the next moment he was confronted by the Dervishes, who wildly slashed at him with their swords. He parried the biows, and killed them both Mm turn, but one ‘er- rific blow from a sword came s0 near to ending his life ae to strike his nose and carry away the lower cartilage as far as the upper lip. Freeman was Invalided home and, be- came an inmate at Netley Hospital, He ul pee roi recovered and was sent by Col. Martin, who was in command of the ist Lancers in the great battle, to consult Mr, Groves D. &., R. C. 8., of Wolverhamp- ton, who has become famous for his res- toration of facial disfigurements. Mr. Groves, tn spite of exceptional difficulties, has treated the case with complete success. An artificial substitute for the natural or- an has been built up, so that the injury 8 not perceptible. Sergt. Freeman leaves England early next month for Cairo to re- join his regiment, He has proved a gallant and herole soldier, and it is pleasant to know that he goes back to ta mt. ly none the worse for his catberd experi- lifelong and unsightly disiguremen ence, having been saved from a t. Mr. Groves himeelf thus describes the means by which he gave the sergeant his new nose: “The artificial organ is frst molded from a plaster model of the face, and then wor up i" p! ¢anite, and painted and fi tificial production becomes a duction of the lost feature. as : Helwig Cigar > Naa a Federal petition MI le f c a a 4 t t 1.
