He says they found the casket to contain some rocks, wrapped in an old quilt or blanket. War- rants were immediately. swofn- out for O’Toole and Dr, McGulre, who wired Mrs. : O’Toole’ of her husband’s alleged sickness, and who is supposed to have—met her at San Angelo and told her of her husband's death and burial. The Sheriff followed them %0 miles through the mountainsvand ruined a.team in order to catch them before they crossed the Mexican line. They were taken at once to Senora. These facts have been forwarded to the Sovereign ‘Lodge at Oma- ha, which wttl direct prosecution. McGuire admits his .identity, Mr. Roundtree says, rt O'Toole claims his name is J. B.

Rorher.at Harrisonburg: ‘My fel- low citizens of Rockingham County—The great honor has been assigned to me of introducing te you as President . of the United States of America one whom we ean call for the first ‘time in 40 years the President of a united country. We wel- come “you, our chieftain and our”pilot, not just as the patriots of the olden time did our George Washington, as.first.in war, but as Jaét for war and first in peace.”’ «The President replied as follows: ‘‘Fel- low Citizens—I heartily join with your speaker in congratulations upon a reunited country. We are now happily one in pur- pose and one in patriotism. I congratulate you upon the evidences of prosperity that I see at every hand. It is a common pros- perity, participated in by both the North and the South. It. now rests upon us and those who follow us to see to it that this union of States established by the fathers representing liberty and justice, represent- ing the highest opportunities and blessings, shall not perish from the earth.” Loud and prolonged applause. WINCHESTER, Va., May ®.—As the President’s train passed through the his- toric battlégrounds of «the Shenandoeh Valley to-day the ride became of increasing interest to.the President. Fisher’s Hill and Cedar Creek were passed, and Mr. McKinley recalled with great detall the various points and positions of the con- tending armies. At Winchester a protract- ed stop was made. The Presidential party drove through the town and stopped at the present Ma- sonic Hall about a block beyond the house, now occupied as a barber shop, in which the President was initiated into the Masonic order. The many historic dwellings were pointed ouf, including’ the headquarters of Gen. Washington, during the Revolution- ary war, and Gen. Sheridan, at the time of his raid through this valley. The reception here was most enthusiastic, crowds cheering and waving hats, running along she street beside the President's carriage. THE WEATHER INDICATIONS.

The odd sounding name is used to designate a peculiar food, made ‘not exactly in the shape of nuts, but having a pleasant, nutty flavor and crisp brittle- ness that makes them a charming favor- ite with the palate. Of yet more value than the taste is the food value of Grape-Nuts. They are largely composed of Grape-Sugar (your dictionary can tell you about that), and those who use them will find the-morn- ing meal has not only beea pleasant, but has been quickly and easily digested; for grape-sugar is an article produced in the human body at one stage of the diges- tion of food, and is at once ready for transformation into good healthy blood and nourishment. : It should not be understood that the grape sugar, of which. Grape-Nuts is made, has been produced in the human body. But this grape-sugar is made by much the same process as the body em- ploys, and is produced by natural treat- ment of grains without any forcign sub- stance whatever. It is made by the Pos- tum Co., at Battle Creek, Mich. The re- sult is perhaps the most highly nutri- tious food ever produced, Grocers sell Grape-Nuts a’ : 4% Siete OPENS 2 S BS AAS CE ELI PE new location wide repu ation. jaconet lawns, ex- quisite new printings, all the scarce les, full 32 inches wide... covert skirtiags, yarn dyed, pure dyé6, th new tan shades, etc... duck skirtings, extra good quality, in the cadet blues, navy. red, pink and tan shades.. ‘hegre piques, two ig lots, 28 and 32 inches wide, stripes, dots, figures, etc.. al- most every known style in this lot inated imported 25c sreamdies, all the 1332C your choice, ! value upto 25c yard. yard new priotings, per yard. spleudid 33-inch wide Fine anne Imported +wiss Mull, worth regularly 17‘4c a yard 10c Plain White Corded Pique, or with plain white figures, good heavy quality, worth 23ca ard Tuesday Ice Beautiful styles in New Printed Lawns, value 6\4c; value 6'4¢; 24¢ Yd. 2t¢ Yd. pou : ‘id : ah, At i Sie Se Hi { Dav Goons Co.

In four days the young woman was cured of her insanity by the complete eradica- tion from her mind of all- memory of her disgrace. At the end of that time she left the hospital in good health, and otherwise completely unchanged from her normal self except, it is asserted, in these particulars: She had completely forgotten her dis- grace, as much as if it never had hap- pened. She had lost all memory of the man who had been responsible for her trouble. She met the man on the street, not once but many times, without recognizing him any more than if he had been a perfect stranger to her. She did not recognize his photograph, which was in her home, as that of one she had ever known. The sight of presents he had given to her aroused in. her no recollection whatever. She was mentally as completely removed from that sad occurance in her life as if it had been the lot of another. person. These are the facts in the case as ob- served by scientific men who were cognizant of it, both before and after the hypnosis. Those who do not believe in hypnotism may doubt that the cure was effected wholly in the manner described, but that it was ef- fected and that, as far as the critical ob- ,Servations of the medical men interested could determine, no other means was used, seems to be beyond doubt. The methods employed by Dr. McCoy to accomplish this result are interesting. He used the latest modern scientific method of producing “sleep suggestions of forgetful- ness. Four days were required to effect the cure, and it is understood that on at least two of the days the suggestions were communicated to her on more than one oc- casion. |. The young woman was thrown into a “deep sleep. While {n that sleep the operator gave to her the suggestions of forgetful- ness.

Fin AAG Oi CIE STRANGE RELIGIOUS RITES. ‘HE BIBLE IS USED WITH A NEW INTERPRETATION. Return to New York of Dr. Ibrahim 4. Kheiralla and a Party of Friends Who Studied the Teach- ings of the Sect. NEW YORK, May 2 .—Singular and secret was the mission which took the Rev. Dr. Ibrahim G. Kheiralla and a select few to Persia. The party consisted of the doctor, his daughters, Nabiha and Labiha, and gome wealthy delegates, who took pgrt in the pilgrimage. They returned a few days ago. In the interior of Persia they visited chiefs of a strange order or brotherhood, who teach a religion whoss followers, it is claimed, number about 50,000,000 scattered @il over the earth. Those who belong to this mystic brother- hood are averse to publicity, and do not seek proselytes, nor desire to spread their propaganda among the masses, yet no in- dividual, man or woman, who pleads an earnest motive is refused the teachings of this religion, !f found capable of grasp- ing them. A cardinal obligation imposed upon those who teach and those who re- ceive instruction, and are desirous of im- parting it to others, is that no remunera-~ tion of any kind may be received. The chief text book of this Persian brother- though the interpreta- hood is the Bible, tion of it is a radical variant from that taught in Chrietian churches. The doctrine of reincarnation is taught; evolution is declared to be non-existant, and theology—so called—is also averred to be false in its theories and doctrines. Dr. Kheiralla, who is the chief repre- sentative of the brotherhood in the United States, is a man of unusual Intellectual at- tainments, according to those who have received his teachings. Although born in Trersia, he was educated in European unl- versities, and became a minister of the Church of England. He lived for 21 years in Cairo, Egypt. There he met Abd-E]- Karin-Effendi Taharan!, who instructed him in the new faith, and guided him to thé headquarters of the order in Persia. Dr. Kheiralla left Persia, he asserted that he had received a true Interpretation of the Bible, which book priestcraft and mon- archy had wilfully disiorted. The teachings of the brotherhood, he gaid, proved that God is an identity, an Iin- dividual, a person. This is the positive poim of their argument—that he is neither the universe, a nothing, a power, a law, nor a principle is the negative point of the argument. Furthermore, the teaching shows, ft is Claimed, why the great purpose here is not to worship and glorify God as the church teaches, nor to come in contact with the materfal laws as occult science teaches, wor to accompiish Karma, as «theosophists teach, nor to awaken the Christ within us @s Christian scientists teach, nor to com- municate with spirits, as spiritualists teach. It will be seen, «herefore, that this religion from Persia differs greatly from accepted Christianity, or the various Oriental creeds end philosophies, Two years ago Dr. America and taught a select few who, in turn, imparted their lore to othere until there are now a goodly number of the members of tha brotherhood here. Last fall several converts, mostly wealthy, ac- companied Dr. Kheiralla to Persia. One of the party is said to be the widow of one of the best known millionaires of Cali- fornia. and the mother of a resident of New York City. So far as can be learned nothing con- cerning the teaching of the order is printed, except a 6mall pamphlet, written by Dr. Kheiralla, entitled ‘‘Bab-ed-Din; The Door of True Religion; Revelation From the Kast; The Truth Shall Make You Free.” This pamphiet simply contains a_ short statement of the fundasmenbal priciples of the religion which it represents. The author, in his preface, says: “— “This religion claims—and by most con- vincing' proofs justifies the claim—to be @ most complete revelation of the light which a larger knowledge of Almi ty God our Creator gives to us than any hither- erto taught among us. In connection there. with is given that particular knowledge \for which every soul fs thirsting; why our l@tay in this world is go brief, and, while jhere, what are our real duties to our Creator, so that, in our earnest perform- ance of these duties, we may secure to Ourselves a never-ending happiness.”’ The student is not required to accept @nything that cannet be proven by hie reason end judgment. For this reason every po.nt of the teaching must be proven by science and logic. The pamphlet also emphasizes that the teacher cannot be re- ,munerated for his labor, because “The truth is not his, and it is not lawful for him to receive material profit from tha. Which belongs not to him.” Concerning the Bible the pamphlet says: The gospels are first a chiefly a his- Sorical record of the master’s life: sec- ondly, a record of his teachings to the masses. But the secret doctrines of Jesus @re still preserved intact In the last book of the New Testament—Revelations—which contains the same teaching as, and exact- jy correspond with, the truths stored in the revelations or visiona of Ezekiel. Zech- @riah, Isaiah, the bullders of pyramids and the Temple of Solomon.” Another peculiar feature of this religion is that no churches are required. The or- Ger does not seek to build places of wor- ship_nor hold any public meetings. Those candidates for membership who are ac- cepted are taught in groups. After «he teaching has been received the members Separate. No lodges, organizations, similar @o other secret societies, are formed, nor is there any ritual, grips, passwords, etc., @s in Free Masonry. Tt ts said that on Dr. Kheiralla's first Visit to the United States he was introduced to Col, R. G. Ingersoll and the two held a friendly argument from their respective Standpoints, Finally Col, Ingersol] admitted that Khelralla had the best of the argu- oayehe although he would not admit that ® was right, and still preserved his posi- tion @s an agnostic. -The name of the order tg known ‘to only those who have taken the full course by teaching and received acceptance from the (great head of the order.

RED PEPPER WAS POPULAR Connecticut School Children Who Break Rules Have Been Eating It for Three Years. Special to the Post-Dispatch. DERBY, Conn., May 20.—Johnny Tripp fs not the only child in room No. 1 of the Shelton School who has been given red pepper to break him of the habit of whis- pering. The same day Miss Mary Connery, the teacher, gave young Johnny the dose that has made him so ill, the son of Mr. and Mrs. Charles Hammond of Keen street, who is also 8 years old, was given a mouthful of red pepper by Miss Connery. This pun- ishment was administered before Johnny Tripp's, but the amount was not so large and the results were not e6o severe. The Hammond boy was made ill and his mother kept him away from the Shelton School. Humane Officer Burgess has ascertained that Miss Connery is not the only teacher in the Shelton School who has given red pepper to scholars. He found that a can of red pepper has been as much of an ad- junct to the desk of a teacher in the pri- mary grade of the Shelton School as a ruler or a call bell. ‘The treatment was intro- duced in the school three years ago. Supt. Pierce declares that he never heard of its use in the schoo! previous to the dose given the Tripp boy by Miss Connery. It is said that if the police authorities fail to take action the Connecticut Humane Society will prosecute both cases. Mies Connery Was to have entertained the Shelton School teachers at her home last ovening at whist. The invitations were recalled yesterday. Miss Connery did not attend school and a substitute was in gharge of her room.

About the time the boy disappeared two tramps were seen near the Steelman home. The child was found on the meadows where it waa impossible for him to have got without assistance. The imprints of footsteps of men were traced in the swamp where the child was found, and to-day measurements were taken of them and other characteristics of the Imprints noted with a hope of running down the abductors.

LONDON, May 2®.—Andrew Carnegie ar- rived at his Scottish domain, Skibo Castle, Sutherlandshire, on Thursday, and received a royal welcome from the tenantry, who anticipate a prosperous and easy life under their new landlord. The millionaire was presented with an address and ‘the oldest tenant handed him a flag bearing the inscription ‘“‘Presented to Andrew Car- negie, Esq., by His Tenants, Crofters and Fewars, on the Occasion of His Home Com- ing as Proprietor of Skibo Castle.” Mr. Carnegie addressed the gathering, saying it was the first experience he had had of entering a large residential property as proprietor. He had been thinking as he drove along the magnificent avenue of nine miles what the possession of property meant; what did it amount to? He knew all this was reputed to be his, but happy is the man who has his croft and can truly realize it as his own. “It seems im- possible for me to realize any sense of pro- rietorship over these miles and miles of nad. but when I saw the gathering of ten- ants at the gate I began to realize how a man could indeed feel he possessed the hearts of his people. That is the best title deed to the land and the best key to the castie.’’ SIMLA ADMIRES MISS LEITER. The Young Woman’s Accomplishmeats as a Whip Are the Wonder of All Who See. Special Cable to the Post-Dispatch. Copyright, 1809, by Press Publishing Company. LAINDON, May %.—The beautiful Coun- tess of Warwick is to serve behind a coun- ter in Bond street every Thursday after- moon for the next two months. There is a needie-work school conducted in the store established by her some years ago to pro- vide employment for needy gentlewomen. At first it did a good business, but several other titled ladies having imitated Lady Warwick's example and started other shops on the same lines, that competition has diminished the sales. As an inducement to purchasers the Countess has now caused it to be known that she will attend on cus- ;temers on the days mentioned, beginning mext Thursday afternoon. ' The Countess now devotes the whole of her time to charitable work, to the promo- tion of industries for the benefit. of the poorer classes, and to stimulate the edu- cation of women. Lord Francis Hope's application for leave to sell the family heirloom, the tamous ; Hope blue diamond, means that, even with every possible retrenchment, he finds his income inadequate for his expenditures. Under the bankruptcy settlement his in- come, he pleads, is altogether too small. Lady Francis Hope, formerly omyg 4 Yohee, the actress, has heretofore not had pos- eession of the Hope diamond, which has lain in the safe at Parr’s Bank, and she did not care to incur the risk of carrying the stone, valued at anything from $100,- 000 to $600,000, around with her. But now that her husband is not per- mitted to get rid of this white elephant, she intends to have what value she can out of it, and is having it set in a tiara for her to wear. An application must be made to the Court of Chancery for this purpose, but the judge cannot refuse it. There is no doubt that when Lady Francis gets the blue diamond into her possession she will be sought after by every enterprising jewel thief in Eng- Jand, and possibly neither she nor her hus- band would be greatly distressed if, des- pite their precaution, it was carried off, as the actions of his relatives in opposing the sale has angered them greatly. Lord and Lady Franc's Hope have been staying recently at the Savoy. Lady Fran- cis has grown rather stout, and is to be seen often driving in Hyde Park in the afternoons, accompanied by a young women in the uniform of a trained nurse, usually her only companion, (Mrs. Langtry’s daughter has grown into an extremely handsome girl. She is darker than her mother, but with her marvelous eyes and her beautiful figure and graceful carriage. She was with her mother at Newmarket this week, and the Prince of Wales took her-.around, introducing her to all the emart people, among others to the [Duchess of Devonshire, Mrs. Leopold Rothschild and Lady Cadogan. This kindly action on the part of the Prince is quite characteristic of his @taunchness to his old friends, and Miss Langtry was received very cordially by the grand ladies, her beauty and charming manners making an immediate impression. This was her first appearance, and it is rather singular that she should have made her debut on a race track, but Mrs. Lang- try had no idea thet thé Prince would take her daughter up and was much touched by the attention. Paderewski, Patti and Otero are the chief attractions of the amusement world this . week. The former’s concert on Tuesday drew a record audience at St. James Hall.

The driving accom- modations on the steep hillside roads here- abouts are very limited, and it requires high proficiency to tool a pair around their sharp curves. No one is allowed to drive in Simla except the Viceroy and the Com- mander in Chief, but Miss Daisy is ac- corded the privilege in view of her relation- ship to the Vicereine. Lady Curzon is to lighten up the staid of- ficial atmosphere of Simla by holding a ——— room, This is a complete innovation, which has been received with delight by the ladies at this viceregal summer retreat. Lord Cur- zon'’s staff has sent home for a pack of fox hounds to hunt next season. — Altogether the Curzons are making Simla a very different place from what it .was under the preceding viceroys. AED AND BLUE COATS, AMBERICAN MILITIA-INVITED TO LONDON. LONDON, May 2@.—Sir Charlies Howard Vincent, Colonel of the Queen’s Westmin- ster Volunteers, struck a popular note in inviting a deputation from the Seventh New York Regiment to visit England. He wrote to Col. Daniel Appleton recently asking him to send a delegation if possible to march with the Westminater Volunteers in Hyde Park when the Prince of Wales will re- view all the London volunteers on July 8 The Westminsters are very enthusiastic about the idea and it is evident they will be greatly disappointed if the New’ Yorkers are unable to accept the invitation to the review and arrange for a shooting match. The Westminster Volunteer Regiment itis one of the strongest and finest volunteer corps in Great Britain. Col. Vincent said to-day: “The invitation, though nominally from my corps, is from the nation anl aichougn in my letter to Col. Appleton we limited the invitation to the Seventh New York Regi- ment, we should like America to send a showing from all her regiments. A great reception awaits her sons from either ser- vice. We want a tighter handclasp between the two nations.” I called at the War Office and saw Adju- tant-General Buller, who said the scheme emanated with the officers of the West- minster Regiment. He added: “We, thus far, have had nothing to do with the mat- ter, but I feel that no obstacle would be put to American soldiers joining in the great march past in July.”’ Gen. Buller spoke very sympathetically, and it was apparent from his remarks that the American volunteers could count upon a royal reception here if they are able to send a representation to England. FORGETTING GLADSTONE. Failure of the Efforts of His Party to Keep His Memory Green. LONDON, May 4.—The attempt to make the anniversary of Mr. Gladstone’s death, May 19, the occasion for a great party dem- onstration similar to the Conservative rimrose day, must be written down as a Henry White, Secretary of the United States Embassy, will spend the first part of the week with his wife at Bath, return. ing to town on Wednesday and proceeding with A.

WAS CRIPPLED BY APOPLEXY. Lost Two Sons, a Daughter Married Unhappily, and Clergyman Broth- er Was Publicly Disgraced. Special Cable te the Pest-Dispatch. Copyright, 1899, by Press Publishing Company. LONDON, May 2.—The suicide of the Bari of Strafford really was the culmina- tion of a series of troubles of tragic in- tensity. Only a few years ago he lost his two sons within a few months of each other. Then two years ago his favorite daughter married a so-calied Comte Mauny de Tal- vande, who turned out to be no Count, but a shady adventurer. This was after his brother and the heir-presumptive to the title, a clergyman, had to resign his livings and chaplaincy to the Speaker of the House of Commons, owing to trouble over gam- bling debts. e The Earl was looking forward to a quiet, happy old age after marriage with Mrs. Colgate, but within two months of that event he was disabled by an apoplectic stroke at Windsor and since then has been in feeble health. The accumu‘tation of trouble preyed on his mind and he became extremely de- pressed. Above all, he felt that he should be compelled to resign his place 'n the Queen's household. The Post-Dispatch cor- respondent hears that the immediate mo- tive for self-destruction was that the Earl woulfi have been unable to be on duty Wednesday in attendance upon the Queen at her last appearance at a public function. The Earl was extremely proud and of the highest rectitude. ueen Victoria has written a letter to the widowed Countess expressing deepest sym- pathy with her and conveying a warm eulogy of the Earl, who had been tn her service—beginning as a royal page—since he was 8 years old. T'he succession to the peerage by the late Barl’s brother, the Rev. Francis Bvng, will lie in abevance for nine months, The funeral of the Earl took place to-day, By the Queen’s command, her equerries, Maj. Gen. Sir H. P. Bwart, Col. H. P. Car- rington. Lieut. Col.

The Prince of Wales and other members of the Royal family were represented at the funeral and sent wreaths. The Earls of Clarendon, Normanton and Lucan and Lord Alfred Paget were among those present. The deceased, at his own request, was buried beside his first wife in Potter’s Bar Church. The Queen’s wreath was inecribed in her own hand writing: “A mark of sincere friendship and regard for faithful and de- voted service.”’ A detachment of the Seventh Battalion of the King’s Royal Rifles, of which the Earl was honorary Colonel, rendered the customary honors. The Countess of Strafford, the ladies Byng and others of the family were the chief mourners. LADY SOMERSET SPEAKS. Vigorously Attacked Clerical Shareholders of Breweries. LONDON, May 2.—The National Wom- en’s Temperance Association held a suc- cessful twenty-third anniversary in London this week. Lady Henry Somerset, as presi- dent, was the chief speaker. She expressed satisfaction at the fact that the late Francis Willard will have a statue in Washington and attacked the clerical shareholders of brewery companies. During the course of her remarks she said American experience had shown how the drink interest dominates political par- tles and urged the banding together of the best interests of the community against such a power. She also assailed Sir Thomas Lipton’s new departure in applying for drink license for his establishments, but Sir Thomas presided at a meeting of his share- holders this week and there was no oppos!l- tion from the women shareholders to the drink licenses though a clergyman entered a protest. 6, however, was satisfied with a divi- dend of 12 per cent and cheered Sir Thomas Lipton and the shamrock heartily. INTERESTED IN FALCONRY. Marlborough and Pembroke Seeking to Revive the Sport. Special Cable to the Post-Dispatch. Copyright, 1899, by Press Publishing Company. LONDON, May 20.—An attempt to revive the royal and aristocratic sport of falconry is being made again. The young Duchess of Marlborough has had several trained hawks installed in a special aviary at Blenheim and ‘has had les- sons from a professor in the pastime, which interests her greatly. The movement is being promoted by the Earl of Pembroke, whose late brother was devoted to it. May Goelet has taken part in several hawking expeditions on her vis- its to the Pembrokes at Wilton Park. “Things Ill Gotten Are Ill Spent.” This is true of the man whose physical condition has forced him to call upon his nerves to sustain the rest of his system.

FOR TRE NEAT WAR, | : About the Canal Bill. IUSING PERSONAL INFLUENCE. NO FEAR NOW OF TROUBLE WITH UNITED STATES. The Opening of the Peace Conference at the Hague Has Attracted a Small Share of Attention at the German Capital. BERLIN, May #.—The Reichstag has ad- journed for the holidays, and will reas- semble on June 6, when it is the intention to pass the following bills: Invalid insurance for postal employes, which will abolish a score of private postal institutions; the Geverbe-ordung law, regu- lating the number of trades, and an addi- tional appropriation bill. The leaders of the different parties have agreed to pass these measures and leave the judiciary and other bills, including the meat inspection, until the autumn. It has been decided to divide those enti- tled to invalid insurance to five classes, at from 350 to 1, 15 marks annually. The rejection of the midland canal bill by the committee is much commented upon in the press. From inside information, the correspondent of the Associated Press learns that this does not mean the defeat of the bill. In a plenary session of the Diet, Emperor William intends to use his personal influence to secure the support of the entire left and center, part of the Reichspartie and some of the Conserva- tives, whose votes would give the bill a clear majority. The Government is determined that the measure, which is the result of 0 years’ deliberation, shall not fail, it being claimed that such a canal scheme is imperatively needed, in view of the fact that the State Tailroads are about to come to an end of their carrying capacity. The Conservative plan of constructing a system of subsidiary railroads will not be adopted. The main reason thait the Government, and particu- larly the Emperor, so strongly favors the canal project is that in case of war with France or Russia, or both, @ network of canals from the eastern to the western frontier of Prussia would afford the best system for the conveyance of field hospitals and supplies for the ordnance department. The agricultural discussion was heated! discussed in the Diet this week and muc interesting matter was brought to light. The lack of rural labor for the large estates in the Eastern provinces was thoroughly ventilated. Garon Von Wanheim, Presi- dent of the Federation of Husbandry, said that unless a radical change was wrought more than half the holders of these estates would be ruined within five years, as it was impossible to obtain the necessary number of hands in harvest time, even at higher wages than formerly. The influx of Polish and Russian laborers during the harvest is wholly insufficient and for national and race reasons is not favored by the Gov- ernment. The latter announce that 10,000,000 marks would be spent in settling small owners in the districts most affected. The press and the Government are much interested in the so-called anti-jingo move- ment started by German-Americans in the United States. Frederick Holls, secretary of the United States delegation at the peace conference at The Hague, while here thor- oughly informd the Minister of Foreign Af- fairs, Baron Von Buelow, and the Foreign Office officials as to extent and purport of the movement. He carried assurances from Washington that so far as the movement meant the preservation of good intimate relations between the two countries, fhe ~ eames sean is thoroughly in accord with The German press freely comments With satisfaction on the fact that German- Americans have exerted themselves toward the establishment of former pleasant inter- national relationa. The opening of the peace conference at The Hague created little attention. The North German Gazette, on behalf of the Government on Thursday congratulated the ‘Czar, who was styled “A faithful friend of our Emperor” on the oceasion of his birth- day. The Liberal newspapers greeted the opening of the conference with sympa- thetic editorials, but the conservative and Agrarian press was either silent or treated the matter as bagatelle. The Voorwaerts reiterates its view that the conference is a Russian intrigue and claims it has ground 4 saying that Russia at the conference regular troops, which the paper character- izes ag a “‘Diabolical scheme” intended to bring about a league of the continental powers against Great Britain. / ? THE KAISER’S PLAY. Unusual Splendor Marked the Wies- baden Fetes. P BDRLIN, May 2.—The Wiesbaden fetes this week were on a ecale of unusual! splen- dor and the Emperor and WPmpress en- joyed them greatly. The production there of the Emperor's new play “Der Elsen Zahn” (The Iron Tooth) was the great so- clal event. It was attended by a distin- guished audience, the ladies being dressed in the Bradenburg colors, red and white, and the gentlemen wearing full uniforme. The royal personages were received by fantares of trumpets and the audtence rose and cheered them enthusiastically. On Wednesday, after the performance the Dm- peror attended a stag party at the house of the manager of the Royal Theater, Von Huelsen, who is a great favorite of Hie Majesty, and upon whom he conferred a new decoration. The Hmperor has taken great satisfaction in the performance of the play which deals with a rebellious Ber- lin burgomaster of the 15th century, who was conquered finally by the ruler of Bran- denburg, the Hmperor’s ancestor. The play itself and its pecullar manner of treatment were interpreted as a rebuke to the Berlin city fathers, who are in a state of mild rebellion against the Emperor. A number of distinguished strangers were present at the play at Wiesbaden in addi- tion to the imperial couple and the ruling rince of Germany. They included a num. er of English and American travelers. Among the latter were Charies H. Purdee and Family of Philadelphia; Alexander Nicholl and family of ashington; Flore ence Pratt and family of Boston, and Mes. dames Moran and Sibley of New York. The imperial couple will spend the holl- days at Potsdam in the usual way. On Thursday they will arrive at Cassell to at- tend the great singing tournament and will pay a short visit to the Empress Fred- ericks residence at Cronbergiater, the Exn.- press of Germany will personally open the tuberculosis congress on May 2B. The Grand Duchess of Baden and the Princess of Saxe-Weimar will also be present. The imperial chancellor, Prince Hohenlohe will preside at the initial session. e dis- pi bag stay persons who will be present in- clude the Duke of Ratibor, Prof. Von Ley. den and the ‘Minister of the Interior, Count Von Posadowski-Wehner.

COMPLIMENT TO AMERICANS. AND THEY WERE ALL BEAUTI- FULLY COSTUMED. Names of Those Received at Victoria’s Drawing Room With What They Wore and Incidents of the Reception. Special Cable to the Post-Dispatch. Copyright, 1899, by Press Publishing Company. LONDON, May 20.—Queen Victoria, as a special compliment to the United States, personally received all the Iadies presented at this week’s drawing-room by Mrs. Choate, including her daughters, Miss Choate and Miss Elizabeth Choate, who were both beautifully dressed in white satin and chiffon with splendid court trains and bouquets to match. Mrs. Leishman, the wife of the American Ambassador to Switzerland, was superbly dressed in white, striped with silver em- broidery, and with very fine jewels on her bodice. Diamnonds and a plume of feathers decorated her auburn hair, making al- together a very striking effect. Mrs. Leish- man’s daughter was dressed in soft muslin, with insertions of Valenciennes lace and a train of white silk embroidery with dull silver and applique lace. Mrs. Alfred Parrish was also presented, as was Miss Jennigs, who looked very handsome in a white silk dress and train, with diamond ornaments and feathers in her hair. Her bouqet was of white roses, Miss Mary Stillman wore a beautiful pre- oo ea dress of white satin and exquisite e Migs Nora Weef, the pretty daughter of Malter Neef of Chicago and ndon, Was also received by the Queen. She dress of white point d’esprit, ornamented with white roses, and carried a bouget of the same flowers. The Queen, who was seated in front of the throne, displayed a special interest in the Americans presented, and expressed her pleasure at being able to receive ther. William Waldorf Astor and his daughter, Pauline, were the only Americans at the Sree State ball of the season, Thursday ni ght. Miss -Astor was dressed in white satin, with one of the new transparent trains, which produce a very pretty and graceful effect. Her only ornament was a double row of exquisite pearls on her neck. She came with her father, but was taken in charge later by the’Countess of Selkirk, as he left early and did not dance. The crush at these State functions has now become enormous, and even the spa- cious suites of rooms available at Buck- ingham Palace were inconveniently crowd- ed. The state concerts, the first of which is to be given next week, are much more select, and it is a much greater distinc- tion to be invited to them as the Queen herself still revises the list rigously, and no invitation is given for merely political rea- sons. London is full of Americans. They are to be. met in batches all over the West End and they seem almost to preponderate in numbers over the residents in the neigh- borhood of the big hotels. The London hotel-keepers say they never had such a rush of visitors from across the Atlantic. Even in the jubilee year the number was not larger. his fact they attribute to the false alarms then given as to the dif- ficulty of obtaini hotel accommodation. The landlords attribute this American in- vasion to the after-result of the war, say- ing that many thousands of Americans are co over now who were prevented last year. The weather is by no means agree- able, for, though it is warm, there is little and much rain, and vegetation is very backward. The wedding of Miss Burna the daughter of the fate Walter Burns of J. 8S. Morgan & Co., with “Loulon”’ Harcourt, eldest son of Sir Willlam Harcourt, which is fixed for June 6, at Margaret's, Westminster, the official church of Parliament, promises to be a very brilliant affair. (Miss Burns has received some wonderful presents, ally a string of magnificent pearls from her uncle, J. Pierpont Morgan, and a gorgeous diamond tiara from her mother. Her trousseau represents all that the taste of the best Parisian costermiers could contrive. The bridegroom has bought a house in Berkeley Square where the young couple wilt have as nelghbors Lord osebery, Alfred Harmsworth and the Earl and Countess Crewe. Young Harcourt will receive a very some silver tea and coffee service from litical friends, who are associated with him in the management of Liberal party affairs.

PARI wore a COMMISSIONER - GENERAL PECK TALES OF HIS PLANS. THE FRENCHMEN ARE CORDIAL. Work Upon the Buildings Intended for United States Exhibits Will Begin at Once. NEW YORK, May ™—Ferdinand W. Peck, Commissioner-Generai of the United States to the Paris Exposition of 1900, reached New York on the American Line steamer St. Louts to-day, He was accom- panied by Mrs. Peck and J. H. McGibbons, director of exploitation of his staff. When asked about the results of his trip to Paris Mr. Peck said: “During my brief stay in Paris much was accomplished for our American exhibit in 1900. is is the formative period of our task. The plans of all the United States buildings have been approved by the French authorities though many changes were made in them to con- form to the ulrements of the French Government and to meet the Iimitations of our appreciation. Work upon vaese buildings will begin immediately. There will be five buildings in the main grounds and two in the Bols de Vincennes, the annex to the Exposition, which will be made a most important part of the whole. Our na- tional pavilion will be the only expensive building we will construct. This will be on the banks of the Seine, alongside of the structures of about 30 other nations, with Austria on one side and Turkey on the other. Our other buildings will be annexed to the main structures built by the French administration and will be for exhibition perpocee only. These will include annexes to the main agricultural building, adjoining the Ameri- can section; an annex to the manufac- turers’ building, in the Vincennes; an ad- dition to the forestry building, also to the merchant marine bullding, in which water transportation models will be exhibited, with our weather bureau, etc. At Vincennes we will build a structure for American machinery in operation and a building for our life saving service. We will divide with the French Exposition Company the cost of the building for rail- road exhibit and for automobiles. We se- cured a site ge which our bicycle man- ufacturers will erect a beautiful structure. “The Bois de Vincennes is about six miles from the main grounds and will be very accessible by railroade and by the Seine River, connecting with a tramway for one mfle, whitch latter route wit ve known as the American route, the boats and cars car- rying the American flag. I believe a very large proportion of the visitors to the ex- position will go to Vincennes, as it will be made prominent and most attractive and the trip, especially the river route, will be delightful. “We secured over 60,000 square feet at Vincennes far beyond our expectations. We also added to our agricultural space and 20 per cent to our wall area for fine arts, besides obtaining the privilege of ex- hiviting sculpture throughout al) of our sections. By the courtesy of Germany and Switzerland we also added considerable to our mining section. “M. Picard, the Brench Commissioner- General, authorized me at our final] inter- view on Friday, the 12th, to state that everything would be ready ahead of time and that in some buildings installations could be made next August. The iron structural work of all buildings is prac- tically in place.” “Did you find the Frech officials cordial in your relations with them?’ “They could not have been more so, from President, down.” HONORS FOR MAHAN. Demonstration by the Naval League LONDON, May 2.—The Navy League is organizing a great demonstration in honor of Capt. A. T. Mahan, the naval represent- ative of the United States at The Hague Peace Conference, a8 a recognition of his service rendered to naval men. A commit- tee has been formed, headed by Admiral Lord Charlies Beresford and Admiral of the fleet, the Earl of Clanwilliam to arrange the details. A banquet will be given $s Capt.

Statistics of trust employes published in Thursday’s Post- Dispatch emphasize the Sunday Post-Dispatch’s warning of the political menace of the trusts. It was pointed out by the Sunday Post-Dispatch not only that the trusts wield tremendous influence in politics through their money power, but that through the great additions to the list of their employes they are gaining direct control of the electorate. Men who are employed by the trusts or who are dependent upon them naturally lean to the support of the trusts in politics. Even without any form of coercion trust employes or those dependent upon them for trade or professional em- ployment will be inclined to vote for their interests. This is human nature. The dependents of monopoly support monopoly. According to a careful estimate the trust employes now number 3,547,000. Ten years ago all the persons employed in manufacture in the United States numbered 4,719,000. But the trusts are growing daily and are adding thousands to their cmployes. In addition there are thousands of profes- sional and business men who look to the trusts for money- getting opportunities. Imagine the political power the control of this vast and growing army puts into the hands of the trust magnates! It is a strong bulwark against hostile legislation and is con- Sstantivy becoming stronger as the trust interests expand and consolidate. There is reason to fear their early contro) of the electorate. If the people do not smash the trusts, the trusts will own the government. “The way for war to be stopped is for the people to re- fuse to bear arms,” says Tolstoi. But it will take a long time to educate the people up to that point. The fife and drum appeal strongly to the young man, who does not reason well until years and experience have developed him. The “glory” idea is too strong to be easily overcome, however ridiculous it may appear to sages. ~~ ee The State press has spoken very emphatically against the disgraceful Wiggins Ferry scheme which kept so many visit- ors from the Nashville. Happily it is likely that such an opportunity will never be given another corporation in St. Louis. The people of the State cannot be more disgusted with the ferry monopoly than are the people of this city. = Mr. McKinley has been working in many ways for a re- nomination, yet a Nebraska Grand'Army post commends him for his unselfishness and patriotism. It is entirely proper for Mr. McKinley to desire a second term, and he is quite as selfish as any other politician in his place would be. Un- selfishness in politics is extremely rare. 0 oe The New York Financier says that present capitalization of trust stocks represents ‘‘a 100 per cent advance over an optimistic real worth.” This sort of capitalization it calls the ‘capitalization: of hope’’—the hope to obtain full power to fleece the American people. = = rr It is expected that the exports of grain in the fall will prevent the balance of trade from showing against us.

ASKS IF THE SENATOR IS AGAIN A CANDIDATE. Receives a Reply in the Affirmative and the Wires Out of Washing- ton Kept Hot With Requests for a Conference. | Special to the Post-Dispatch. W'ASHINGTON, May 2.—The Alger<Mc- Millan Senatorial situation is fast ap- proaching an acute stage. Telegrams were exchanged to-day between the rival con- testants, but as yet no criminations or ce- criminations have Been made. Secretary Alger has found that the Michigan Sen- atorship will give him as much trouble to land as has the war with Spain and the question of embalmed beef. The telegraphic correspondence has been carried on with the greatest diploma:y. Senator McMillan this afternoon sent the Secretary of War a telegram asking wheth- er or not he was a candidate for the Sen- atorship from Michigan. Secretary Alger was diplomatic, and replied by asking Sen- ator McMillan whether ur not he was to be considered as a candidate for the vacancy which will occur in 1901. Several other messages passed between the two during the course of the afternoon, and the tele- grams were finally stopped by Secretary Alger suggesting to Senator McMillan that he would be glad to talk personally with him regarding the Senatorship. Senator MciMillan had not up to a late hour this afternoon fixed upon a conference, but as he stopped sending telegrams, it ‘18 pre- sumed he will consent to the interview. Secretary Alger, his friends assert, is much amused at the statements of Senator Mc- Millan that he is in Michigan to use his influence in bringing into the next Repub- lican convention a solid delegation from the State for McKinley. It is asserted by Secretary Alger that neither Senator McMillan nor himself can influence a single delegate from Michigan to vote for any other candidate for the Presidency than McKinley. Indications are that Secretary Alger will find many combinations made against him entering the Senate as the successor of McMillan. Gov. Pingree has not wholly committed himself in the election of Sec- retary Alger, and in the event Senator Mc- Millan declines absolutely to withdraw from the field there is little likelihood of Secre- tary Alger securing an election. The first telegram was sent by the Sec- retary of War. It read as follows: “Are the reports in the press to the ef- fect that you are a candidate for the United States Senate true? Answer at once. “RUSSELL A. ALGER.” The Senator answered: “iiccm 2m ger, Washington—I should have preferred a personal conference with you, but your dis- patch appears to demand an immediate an- swer. I am a candidate for the United States Senate. JAMES M’MILLAN.”’ Secretary Alger’s dispatch !s looked upon by Senator McMillan’s friends as an indication that the Secretary is considering a withdrawal from the Senatorial race. ‘ , : » JOHN ADAMS’ LOOKING GLASS. Historical Relic Brought From the Capital Basement, Spectal to the Post-Dispatch. WASHINGTON, May 2%.—There is being preserved in the rooms of the Senate Com- mittee of the District of Columbia an his- torical relic, the value of which succeeding years rapidly enhances. It is a mirror, purchased by John Adams, the first Vice-President, and adorned the Vice-President’s room at the Senate until it ceased 'to be in keeping with the more modern furnishings, notwithstanding the fact that the Senate at the time regarded $40 as a most extravagant price to pay for a looking glass. 3 It was placed in a closet of the Vice- President's rooms and later relegated to the basement. where it was discovered by @ clerk of the District Committee, who appre- ciated its historical value and had it hung in the committee room.

MOST COSTLY CELEBRATION EVER GIVEN IN THIS COUNTRY. Military, Naval and Civic Parade Through the Stret to Be Reviewed by the President and His Cabinet. a sae Special to the Post-Dispatch. WASHINGTON, May 2%.—The National Peace Jubilee, the most gorgeous, elabor- ate and costly celebration ever given in this country, will begin here on Tuesday next and will continue three days. The citizens of Washington have aiready expended thousands of dollars to make the celebration worthy of the time and the cause, and thousands more will be poured out. The President and his Cabinet are supporting the project with the keenest enthusiasm. Every organization in the Dis- trict of Columbia will take part. The Army and mann will be represented by ail the forces available and the volunteer sol- diery from all parts of the country wili pestiepate. The city is bedecked with unting as it never has been before and the work of decorating has only just be- gun. The Court of Honor, which is re- aon its — touches, extends for three blocks along Per.nsylvania avenue, at the int where that thceroughfare passes the Treasury, the White House and the War and Navy building. The design of the court is by J. L. Smith- meyer, the architect who planned the Con- gressional Library. At each end of the court a canopy of attractive design rises to the height of 40 feet. Their bases will be massed in pangs of palms and the choicest flowers which the Government gardens pro- duce. The floral decorations will extend to the summits of the canopies. Midway between the canopies and dl- rectly in front of the White House portico is the President’s reviewing stand with a seating capdcity of 800. It is finer and more costly by far thap any inaugural stand ever erected in the city, and will be used by the President, the Cabinet, the District Commissioners and distinguished guests. Every few feet alon the court of honor just at the edge o the sidewalk, are masts from which float pennants and flags. Thirteen columns sur- mounted by the American eagle and adorned with bunting, represent the origi- nal States. All the columns, maste and canopies are thickly studded with incagdes- cent electric lights of varied colors and will be illuminated each night during the jubi- lee. The President has assured the manage- ment of the jubilee that he will review all the parades and will, if poesible, be present at the ball on the final night. As the head of the column passes the President’s stand a big American bald eagle will be released from the cage where it has been Kept since its capture in the Rocky Mountains a year ago. On Tuesday night the President will hold a public reception at the White House, and there will be an elaborate disp) of fire-. works on the lot surrounding the Washing- ton Monument, which will be illuminated by searchlights. One of the features will be an American flag in fire suspended at an altitude of 1000 feet by balloons. On an ar- tificial lake the battle of Manila will be reproduced, and portraits of the Presi- dent and heroes of the Spanish War will be shown. On Wednesday will come the flower carnival, which is intended to rival the famous annual affair at Nice. Splendid prizes have been offered for the most elab- orately decorated vehicle, and the rivalry among the wupes set of society is intense. In the afternoon there will be a parade of civic organizations, flower decorated bicy- cles, tradesmen’s tableau floats, business exhibits and public school children with floats showing the course in manual train- ing and domestic pursuits. mmediately after the parade has passed the President's reviewing stand the bicy- clists will have a number of races on Penn- sylvania avenue from the Treasury to the Peace Monument at the foot of the Capito! ple. The course is exactly a mile nz ong. The display of fire works on the monu- ment grounds will include the destruction of Cervera’s fleet on the artificial lake. On Thursday. at 2 p. m., a historical pageant will start with the court of honor as Its ob- jective point. There will be thirteen di- visions and the parade will be led by Yeo- man Will, of the navy, the tallest man in the service of the country. The Yeoman will be made up to represent Uncle Sam. ALL GOLD RECORDS BEATEN. This Year’s Output Will Reach Over $340,000,000 and the Figures May Grow. Special to the Post-Dispatch. WASHINGTON, May 0.—Ex-United States Senator Peffer's statemcg@: that the mines are prolific, there is an abundance of gold, Is 'contirmed by Director;of the Mint Roberts, whose advice indicates that the production of gold for 1899 will reach $340,000.00. Offi- chal figures for 1898 show an increase of $50,000,000 over the 1897 total, which was 54, 800 Predictions are made that the year 1900 will see the gold production reach the stu- yvendous figure of $400,000,000. Of this about $55,000,000 will be required for the arts, leaving $335,000,000 available for use as The gold production of 1896 was $202,682,300, of which about $138,000,000 was available for monetary uses, and the ailver production Was $217,442,900, at the coining value of which about $175,000,000 was available for monetary use. The amount of both metals available at that time, therefore, if the mints of the world generally had been opened to free colnage of silver, was about 13. 000,000. WILL SETTLE THE DISPUTE. United States and Great Britain to Arbitrate the Alaskan Trouble. Special to the Post-Dispatch. WASHINGTON, May ®.—The United States and Great Britain have practically agreed to settle the Alaskan boundary dis- pute by arbitration. Ambassador Joseph Choate and Lord Salisbury, Prime Minister of England, who have been crying vainly to adjust, through diplomatic channels, the eeridus contention between the United States and Canada over what Is the true border line tn the Northwest, have agreed that it ts tmpossible to reach settlement in this way because of Canada's ugly atti- tude: so arbitration is to be resorted to, although the detaila of the arrangement perfected. It is understood United States select two members of en arbi- the four «o select a fifth fail to agree the to act as final ar- ach member. In case the fifth an thus select viter. Canada's aggressive position, which she is practically defying the home Government and dally threacenin a clash between American and Canadian Senators who would involve this country and Great Britain, has forced the two to agree to ar- bitrate.

BUT GUNS WILL FINALLY 38 PLACED IN ARMORIES, They Will Be in Charge of the United States Military Forces in Cuba and Be Kept as Souvenirs. Special to the Post-Dispatch. WASHINGTON, May %.—President Mee Kinley and Secretary Alger had a confer- ence to-night regarding the proposed plan of disarmament submitted by Major-Gen- eral Brooke. They indorsed General Brooke’s plan with a modification wh'oh virtually carries out the original instrue- tions of the President on the subject. The President had instructed General Brooke to have the Cubans turn over their arms to United States Army officers. He agreed, however, with Gen. Gomes that the arms should be surrendered to the Mayors of the Cuban c‘ties. Secretary Alger wanted to insist upon the original instructions regarding’ the dispo- | sition of the arms being carried out. After discussing the question for an hour the President evolved the following plan, which, it is believed, will be satisfactory to all concerned: The Cubans shal) surrender their arms to the Mayors of Cuban cities in the presence of officers of the United States and Cuban Armies. Each of the representatives are to keep a list of the arms surrendered. The Cuban Mayors are to immediately surrender these arms to the United Gtates armories at Havana.and Santiago, where they wil! be placed in the keeping of armor- ers appointed by the Commander-in-Chief of the Cuban forces, They are to remain in the United States armories under the direct supervision of the army officers of the United States. The arms are to be regarded as souvenirs of the war with Spain, except those fur- nished the Cubans by the United States Government. This plan, while a concession to the Cubans on its face, really provides for the disposition of the arms as originally ordered by the President. The few officials of the Government who learned of the plan to-night state that President McKinley has demonstrated his diplomatic ability in the solution of the problem, which it was an- ticipated would cause him much concern. The President immediately upon his return to the Executive Mansion from Hot Springs, called at the residence of Vice- Srestient Hobart. He found the Vice- President much i roved. Mr. Hobart witl shortly leave for the seashore, in an effort to fully recover his health. During the evening the President held conferences with Secretary Long of the Navy Department and Postmaster-General Smith, HAVANA, May 2.—The morning papers here to-day reflect the discontent and re- sentment of the Cubans over the supposi- tion that their arms are to be taken forc!- bly. if necessary, and kept by the United States military authorities. Carlos Cespedes is quoted in the Times of Cuba as saying Gen. Maximo Gomez en- tered Into the ‘ast negotiations in good faith, and that “if Gen. Brooke changes the order agreed — the will break his worl given to Gen. Gomez.” Cespedes, it seems, thinks the $3,000,000 ~ better go to the United States rather thin the effort to distribute it be pushed if the conditions are that the arms of the Cu- bans are to be taken by the American army. CHILDREN GREET SCHLEY. ee Dee Little Ones at Omaha Press Forward to Grasp the Hand of the Fighter. OMAHA, Neb., May 20.—In the face of @ biting wind and with every appearance of rain commencing to fall at any minute at least 10.00 people came out to attend the pubiic reception tendered Rear Admiral Schley in the rotunda of the City Hall.

There are no claims made for it which are not fully sustained. I have recommended it to my friends, and take this opportunity of advising the public of its wonderful merits.’’ Paine’s celery compound is carried home by men and women of the highest standing in every profession; it is cheerfully and publicly recommended by physicians, and used in their own families, as tthe one re- sponsible Spring remedy; and is vouched for ~ 4 men and women in every commun!i- ty, who are as careful when they endorse a remedy as when they endorse a note. Paine’s celery compound is the most re- markable remedy that the sctentific re- search of this country has produced. Frot. Edward E. Phelps. M. D., LL. D., of Vart- mouth College, first prescribed what is now Known the world over as Paine’s celery compound, for all ‘‘run-down”’ conditions of the nerves, brain and tissues, and for purifying the blood,especially in the Spring, when it*is most amenable to improvement. “I don’t know what is the matter with me,’’ complain many hard-werkine men and women, after a winter of indoor work or excitement. ‘“‘Il can hardly say I’m sick, ~~ e a - ~~ Se ae > .

In Spring the entire nervous system be- comes conscious of the need of recupera- tion. That is what the aches and pains of rheumatism and neuralgia that make them. selves felt at this time mean. They all re- fer to a worn-out, nervous condition. Get rid of biliousness, headaches, nervousness and constipation, and send new, purified blood tingling to all the corners of the body. Paine’s celery compound will do all these things. It cures rheumatism, sleeplessness, de- bility and the languor and weakness that accompany these derangements, in the only way that a scientific remedy can guarantee ermanent results—by increasing the appe- ite, feeding the nerves, facilitating diges- tion and expelling impurities from the blood.

It insists upon payment for everything. Peo- ple do not build irrigation ditcenes for pieas- ure. The zangaro fees and the wator rent must be paid in advance. Then cannot be postponed like taxes, for the rule is no pay, no water, no crop. Shiftles: farmers object to this arbitrary method wf doing business and make a_ disturbance when their supply is cut off. There may be cases of oppression and injustice. and some of the canal men might mend their manners to the advantage of all concerned, but I am told by disinterested people that whliie irri- gating companies always demand their dués and get them, they are generally fair and honest. Prompt-paying trons seldom com. plain, and when you find a man in a lawsuit with an irrigating company or denouncing the tyranny of the monopolies you are pretty apt to find on inquiry that he is a contrary sort of citizen and is frequently in trouble with his neighbors. The method of taxing land by the acre for water is not exactly just, as some land and some crops require more moisture than others, and there is a great deal of waste- fulness. The more rational system would be to assess a farmer according to the amount he used, and some companies have already adopted that rule. Such matters usually | adjust themselves after experience.

ROUGH RIDERS GATHER SOON First Reunion Will Be Held on the Anniversary of the Battle of Las Guasimas. ALBUQUBPRQUE, N. M., May 20.—It has been definitely settled that the first re- union of the Rough Riders will be held in New Mexico on June &, the anniversary of the battle of Las Guasimas, in which the Rough Riders for the first time so signally distinguished themselves. The reunion has been claimed by Chicago, Guthrie, El Paso and other cities, but this has been without authority from the or- ganization of Rough Riders, perfected at Montauk Point last summer before the regiment was mustered out. Col. Alexander ©. Brodie, the president of this ‘organiza- tion, telegraphed to this city to-day say- ing that the first reunion would be held in New Mexico. As all the Rough Riders and their officers in this Territory have agreed upon Albuquerque as the proper place, the reunion will be held here. Col. Roosevelt also favors this programme, with the un- derstanding that the reunion next year is to ay to Arizona and tn folllowing years to Oklahoma, Colorado and Texas. The Commercial Club of this city met to- day to arrange the preliminaries for the reunion, which will be an event of national importence, at which the glories of Ameri- can arens will be fittingly celebrated. Among the number who will be especially invited to attend are President McKinley, Col. Roosevelt, Gen. Wood, Gen. Joe Wheel- THEY ALL PAID FULL FARE. Wisconsin. MILWAUKEE, May 2%.—The anti-pass law has gone into effect, as State Capitol employes who had taken their usual visit home discovered when they returned their passes to the conductors. They had sup- posed that they would be safe until the law was published. They learned that when the railroad companies called in the passes they had furnished the State officials and others they were not writing letters just for fun. Conductors on all the lines have received instructions to take up every pass presented by a State or city official and collect full fare from the holder. In con- sequence of this order some of the employes at the Capitol had to produce the amount of fare from their home point to Madison, something they had not done for many teagan and the production was accompanied y many wry faces. The companies do not intend to take any chances, and each conductor had a blank statement to the effect that the holder of a pass is not a State or city official or comes | Within the class barred from free transport- ation by the anti-pass law. Every one who presents a pass has to sign this state- ment, which the conductor sends in with his report. The return of the passes in- cludes not only the officeholders, but thejr families, which is another blow to some who had hoped that their families might ride free even if they had to pay fare. - ONE IN EVERY FOUR. One Person in Every Four Suffers From Piles. About one person in every four suffers from some form of rectal disease. . The most common and annoying is itching piles, indicated by warmth, slight mois- ture and intense, uncontrollable itching in the parts affected. The usual treatment has been some sim- ple ointment or salve which sometimes give temporary relief, but nothing like a permanent cure can be expected from such superficial treatment. The only permanent cure for itching piles yet discovered is the Pyramid Pile Cure, not only for itching piles, but for every other form of piles, blind, bleeding or protruding. The first application gives instant relief and the continued use for a short time causes a permanent re- moval of the tumors or the small para- sites which cause the intense itching and discomfort of itching pfles. Many physicians for a long time sup- posed that the remarkable relief afforded by the Pyramid Pile Cure was because it was supposed to contain cocaine, opium, or similar drugs, but such is not the case. A recent careful analysis of the remedy showed it to be absolutely free from any cocaine, opium, or in fact any oisonous, injurious drugs whatever.

Prosecution Claims to Have Evidsnce That Poisoned Candy Was Sent Mrs. Morey by Her Hus- band’s Stenographer. HASTINGS, Neb., May 2.—Miss Viola Horlocker, who is accuesd of having tried to poison ‘Mrs. Anna Morey, is. still ill, or feigning illness. The prisoner is certainly afflicted with some ailment, for she is the mere shadow of her former self. Whe is bound to the District Court in the sum of , and she will have to face a trial for the attempted killing of seven women. It is hardly to be wondered at that she is prostrated. Gome of her friends denounce the prosecution for its attempt to asperse her honesty and the charge that she is ma- lingering, while others are inclined to be- lieve that the young woman is really feign- ing ill health for the sake of sympathy. Is this beautiful girl really guilty of the atrocious crime with which she is charged, or is she snared in a net of circumstances which may bind her in penal servitude for many years, if not for life? Few there are in Hastings who know. Perhaps no one knows but Miss Horlocker herself. Were she to plead guilty the question would be at rest. But in lieu of such plea this case must only rest as one of the many myster!- ous crimes of like nature that have swept over the country since Cordelia BotKin mur- dered two innocent women with poisoned candy in Delaware. Mrs. Anna Morey ts the wife of a promi- nent lawyer in Hastings, junior partner of the firm of Tibbetts Bros. & Morey. Miss Horlocker belongs to one of the best and, at one time, one of the wealtalest fami- lies in the State. She was a stenograpner in the law offices of the man whose wife she is accused of trying to kil. She was the only support of her mother, whose unfortu- nate temper caused Viola’s four sisters to leave home and seek their living in vari- ous of the big cities of the country. ‘Mrs. Morey is a teacher of art, and has been very successful in her profession, in her classes are some of the most promi- net women in the city. Among these, Miss Kirby, a popular belle, is a dear personal friend of the artist. It is with these three women—Mrs. Morey, Missa Kirby and Miss Horlocker—that the poison mystery has to do. Monday, April 10, Mrs. Morey was away for a time from her apartments in the Lin- coln flats. When she returned she found upon her doorstep a box of homemade can- dy. In the box was a card of Miss Kirby, and on the back of the card was the in- scription, ‘‘Homemade Sweets.”” Mrs. Morey took up the box, but owing to the fact that she was in a hurry, did not pay par- ticular attention to the gift. The box lay on the table till some of ‘her pupils came—five prominent ladies of Hastings. She offered the candy to her friends, and al] of them ate. Presently Miss Kirby arrived, but when Mrs. Morey thanked her for the canes the young lady denied all knowledge of the gift, and expressed the fear that the bon- bons might be poisoned. Of course, the bare suggestion was enough to frighten everybody. But meanwhile Mrs. Morey and Mrs. Gaslin, one of the pupils, had fallen {ll, and had been attacked with severe nausea. A physician was sent for, and he soon saw that he had a genuine case of poisoning to deal with. he candy was carefully examined. On the top layer there were candied nuts and on the bottom layer sugared cherries. When the art pupils had been cared for and the teacher relieved the candy was submitted to a chemist, who found four grains of arsenic in the first bonbon he analyzed. The physician, Dr. Cooke, who used to be a friend of Miss Horlocker, looked about him for the author of the crime. In this little town everybody knows the business of everybody else, and Dr. Cooke was not unaware of the fact that Miss Horiocker was the trusted and confidential friend of Mr. Morey. He knew, too, as all the town knew, that (Miss Horlocker’s grief and her trouble at home had excited the sympathy of the lawyer. He knew that Morey had made Miss Horlocker his wife’s friend, and that the three often went driving together. Never had a word been gaid of aught but the most rigorously social association be- tween lawyer and stenographer. Yet there was felt among the friends of both parties something which made it out to be that Viola was in love with her kind and gen- erous employer. Dr. Cooke shared in the general senti- ment, and had it not been for this fact per- haps this girl would not be now charged with all but murder. When the news of the potsceting was spread abroad it was at first generally discredited. Then unbelief gave way to indignation, and indignation to fury. But who had done the horrible work’ This question was not answered until the Wednesday following the crime. Miss Hor- locker on that day met Dr. Cooke in a drug store, and inquired after the condition of Mrs. Morey. The medical man etared the girl in the face, and exclaimed dramatically: “Ollie, how could you do it?’’ Miss Horlocker almost swooned. When she recovered she ‘thurmed away, and on that evening she and her mother took the train for Sheldon, Io., where they remained until Viola was placed under arrest. The prosecution claims it has a clear case. The attorneys say Viola was seen in the vicinity of the Lincoln flats on the day the candy was left for Mrs. Morey. They have other evidence, or say they have, which they be- lieve to be conclusive. It is understood that it will be argued that the girl was infat- uated with her employer and that in order to remove the only obstacle from her path to his affections she sought to poison his wife .Miss Horlooker’s friends ecout this idea. They repel with indignation the alle- gation that the young woman is guilty, or contend that if she be guilty she was in- fans when she tried to kill-her friend’s wife. It is generally understood that the defense will plead insanity if unimpeachable evi- dence be brought forward showing that Miss Horlocker is really guilty. This interesting young woman is about 30 years old. She thas always been a fa- vorite in Hastings society. She was, until her arrest, the leader of St. Cecilia’s Church Chotr and arranged all the music. Only a few days before the poisoning Miss Horlocker had been tendered the Presidency of the Musical Culture Club, embracing the best musical talent in the city, but de- clined the honor. As Deputy County Judge for four years she acquired a practical in- sight of law, and all legal papers of the office were drawn up by her in an intelii- gent manner. She has few equals here as a stenographer, Her letters and legal pa- — were models, and she was noted for er attention to business and her accuracy. She is an engaging conversationalist and had many admirers among her numerous acquaintances. COMMERCIAL CONGRESS. Delegates Appointed to the Trans- Mississippi Meeting. WICHITA, Kan., May .—J.

The Men Killed in the California War in 1846 Buried on Dead Man’s Island. LOS ANGELDS, Cal., May 2.—It is gratl- fying news to every patriotic American to learn that steps are to be taken by the Secretary of War to disinter and remove the remains of the United States sailors and marines buried on Dead Man's Island. Orders have been sent to the commandant of Mare Island Navy Yard at Vallejo, Cal., to. disinter and remove the remains of these men and reinter them at the United States Naval Cemetery on Mare Island. The story of the fighting that gave Dead Man’s Is- land its silent inhabitants is interesting to the present generation of newspaper read- ers. Dead Man’s Island is a very small patoh of sand, gravel and rock, and forme the terminus of the present old San Pedro breakwater, which runs parallel with the shore and protects the little San Pedro Harbor, and lies immediately opposite the town. The present improvement on San Pedro Harbor, for which a large appro- priation has been made, contemplates the extension of the old breakwater from Dead Man’s Island nearly a mile out into the sea. which, with another breakwater, etart- ing from Point Firman and running at al- most r'ght angles with the first, will have been reduced to a simp'e connection link in the first great line of breakwater. The island has been wasting away, cor- —— roded by the winds and rain, and the re- mains of thé dead heroes of the republic were threatened with absolute obliteration. These men belonged to the United States frigate Savannah, and were killed on the 19th day of October, 184, in an unsuccessful attempt of Commodore Mervine, U. 8. N., to recapture Los Angeles. In July, 1846, Commodore Stockton of the United States frigate Congress captured, occupied and established a garrison at Los Angeles and left Capt. Gillespie of the ma- rines as commandant. His garrison con- isted of one company of United States fharines and a company of reflemen of the remont Battalion, California Volunteers, under the command of Capt. Alexander Bell. The Californians submitted very gracefully to the change of rule, and there would have been no trouble whatever but for the foolishness of Capt. Gillespie. He ordered that when a Californian met and passed an American officer on the street he should halt, face toward the officer and etand bareheaded until the officer had passed, and further, when a Californian met a non-commissioned officer he should remove his hat, Dut need not stand at at- tention. Now, there was one man named Cerbol Barelas, a native of Los Angeles, a gallant fellow and magnanimous as well, as the sequel will show, who refused to raise hie hat to a corporal, and was arrested and laced in the guardhouse. When release: e rebelled, raised the rancheros, besieged the Americans, forced their. capitulation, treated them generously and sent them on board the frigate Savannah, which sailed#% for San Diego. There was another garrison 35 miles east of Los Angeles, at a ranch called ‘“Chino.”’ This was commanded by Capt. Wilson. Barelas also forced its capitulation, and then showed his generous manhood. Many of Wilson’s company being Americans who had taken the oath of allegiance to Mex- ico. were regarded as traitors, and the Californians determined to shoot them as such, but Bareias protected them and treat- ed them most generously, for which he had the gratitude of all Americans of that pe- riod, until the time of his death. All this happened in September, 1846, and ‘'n October following Commodore Mervine organized a force at San Pedro, composed of United States marines and sailors from the ships Savannah and Congress, with Bell's company of riflemen and on the 8th of October took up his line of march for Los Angeles. 3 miles inland, over an al- most level plain. He camped for the night at Dominguez ranch, midway between the two places, and in the morning resumed his an the Dominguez march. He had covered about two miles of ground when he was met by the Call- fornians, and a battle ensued. Bell's ri- flemen formed the advance ard. The six sailors and marines were killed in that en- counter and the mustard being very high, dry as tinder and almost as dense as a Mississippi cane brake, the Californians set | fire to it on both flanks, which would have , roasted every one of them had they not ade a prec%pitate, yet orderly retreat to Hills, from which they marched in the morning. Upon reachi San Pedro the men who were killed an had died of their wounds were the little island. The navy records show that there was six. There are seyen graves, however, on the island but one is said to. be that of an English skipper, who was cabin boy; ‘Michael Hoy, seaman; David Johnson, ordinary seaman; Char mers, musician; William Berry, and Henry Lewis, marine. PANA MINING TROUBLES. The Board of Arbitration Will Decide the Matter Tuesday. Specia) to the Post-Dispatch. PANA, Ill. ,May 20.—The State Aprbitra- tion Board on the mine troubles finished their work .and left the city this morning. All evidence is in and the board will render a decision next Tuesday. The board are very reticent about giving anything for publication, but ft Is conceded by all par- ties that a satisfactory agreement has been reached. The mine signed an agreement to abide by the board's decision. Mr, George V. Penwell stated to-night that no decision as to the scale had been reached up to the time of ad- journment of the board, and in all prob- ability the fixing of the scale would occupy the deliberations of the board for the next four or five days. All parties concerned are reticent about officials and coal operators giving anything out, but it is conceded that! concessions have been made by both fac- tions in order to complete matters and bring about a sp@edy settlement. : The operators will recognize the union and all the rules and regulations governing it. It is understood the negroes are to, depart and only union men employed. This vir- tually ends the strike. i a More Extensive Experience Than All Other Specialists Combined. It is needless to tell the readers of this news- paper that Dr. Sweany has the most extensive practice of any specialist in the West. Indeed, there is little doubt but that bie practice ex- ceeds that of all otbers combined. Now, there must be a reason for that. The thousands of per- manent cures effected by Dr. Sweany stand as a living monument to the glory which he has achieved in his profession. Each and every cure effected are living advertisements, which muvove from house to bouse. town to town, and from State to State, telling of the great specialist's achievements in each particular case. It makes no difference to the doctor whether rich or poor, all are treated with the same skill and consider- ation. These are a few reasons why Dr. Sweany's fame has stretched out to every nook and corner of the land, until te-day his practice surpasses all otber specialists’ togetber. geys, Weak and termination is eure to follow.

e " principal, How J. F. Potter Gained His Famous Sobriquet. BATTLED ON THE HOUSE FLOOR. DEFENDED HIMSELF FROM AT- TACKS OF SOUTHERNERS. Wisconsin Man Never Looked for Trouble, but When It Came Upon Him, He Was Always Pre- pared for War. POTTAWATOMID MANOR, Wis.. May @.—The death of ex-Judge and ex-Con- geressman John Fox Potter, “bowie knife,” recalls the stirring times when he earned that sobriquet. Potter entered Congress in the first year eof Buchanan's administration. James I. Orr of Gouth Carolina was speaker. It was a time when there was no persotial safety for any Northern man who dare to utter sentiments displeasing to the slaveholders of «he Gouth. Scenes of violence were of frequent ocourrenoe. The ruffianly assault by Preston Brooks upon Charles Sumner had been made in the Genate chamber the year before, and Sumner was etill disabied, his seat in the Senate meantime remaining —— . - ~ . ~~ ~ ~ . ~ JOUN F¥.. POTTER. Vacant, because Massachusetts refused to elect anyone to take the place of her repre- sentative who head. been brutally stricken down at his post of duty. Baltimore plug- uglies frequently sat in the gallery with revolvers on their knees, ready to fire down upon «the Northern representatives if there should be a row. Potter was a man of stalwart frame, hardened by experience as a pioneer, uncompromisingly positive tn de- claring and standing by what he believed , to be right, and while not reckless or pug- ; macious, utterly fearless of bodily danger. | On more than one occasion he tanght the hot blooded Southerners by. practical dem- onstration that if they provoked Northern men too far they would encounter peril. He was opposed te the bill pending ifn Congress which provided for the admission of Kansas under the Lecompton constitu- tion, which had been framed for the inter- ests of slavery. During the discussion of that bill a free-for-all fight occurred on the floor of the House which resulted in a chal- lenge for a duel between Roger A. Pryor of Virginia and Mr. Potter. Immedtately after the challenge was re- ceived Mr. Potter wrote the famous letter of accéptance which earned for him the so- briquet of “Bowie Knife Potter.’’ His let- ter to his second, Col. F. W. Lander, and the latter's note to Pryor’s representative were as follows: WASHINGTON, April 12, 1860.—Dear Lander— I bave this moment received the inclosed note from Roger A. Pryor. 1 have given him no just cause for offense, but it is evident that the freedom of Speech on the floor of the House of Reptesentatives is here threatened through me, and my life ts Sought as a means of accomplishing that result. Repulsive as is to me the idea of resorting to what | ‘and the arrest followed. is falsely known as the ‘‘code of honor,’’ there may be such a thing as a choice between that and as- | eassination. Evidently no cause exists for calling upon me to rospond in this case other than a de- peire to put me out of the way. I am ready to give ap my life, if necessary, to prevent a bloody con- test on the floor of the House, which seems to threaten. You are authorized to make the hecessary ar- rangements for me. I will fight him with bowle knives at such time and place as you may deter- mine. Very truly your friend, JOHN F. POTTER. Col. Lander to Mr. Chisman: April ak) end a, have to state that my on.

Much discussion was pepamanes by the choice of the peculiar thal Weapons, and Pryor backed from his challenge, opty t “Bowie knives are not the weapons to be men."’ “The ineldent of the challenge passed, but the tWo men were never afterward en good terms. The challenger is now a@ judge in New York and lives in Brooklyn. Mr. Potter was engaged in another fight on the floor of the House at the time Galusha A.

The Baltimore Clipper that morn- ne nae contained a paragraph to this ef- ect: “ ‘Reuben Davis has a black mark over his eye, which he accounts for by havin fallén over a chair, but John F. Potter. o Wisconsin thinks he knows who had @ hand in it.’ “The note asked if-I had authorized that statement, and demanded from me a dis- claimer of having struck him. He was «he first fellow I had knocked down. I wrote a reply, saying I had nothing to do with the statement of the Baitimore paper, and ignoring the other part of the commu. nication, In response to this I received another missive from Davis, saying, ‘Your note is received, and is consi ered satis- factory.’ Soon after I received.a request to meet Davis. He said Barksdale was disgatisfied with the course I had taken, and demanded: from -me a disclaimer. that I had struck him. I said, ‘Gen. Davis, I have never claimed ‘that struck anyone, and I shall make no disclaimer.’ Barks- dale was dissatisfied with this, though Davis didn’t seem to want a row. Barks- dale was, as I knew, a fighting man. He and Davis tr had a fight with knives in @ room in ichmond, and I was told by men who had seen him undressed that there was hardly a placé on his breast where he had not scars showing that he had been wounded. While Davis and I were together, Barksdale came into the room in which we were talking and demanded that I should then and there make a disclaimer that I hed infiléted a blow upon him. “I saw that the matter was likely to be- come serious, and proposed that I should have a friend présent. Mott sat near the door in an adjoining room, so I said, ‘Call Mr. Mott.’ Mott’s Quaker instincts taught him to disrelish violence, and as he came in he observed, ‘I hope there is to be no fur- ther trouble.” Davis made a motion to go out of the room, and said to me, ‘Come here,’ drawing me after him. When we were outside he said, “Barksdale had no right to come in there in the way he did. He has acted discourteously to you and me, and I shall have no more to do with this.’ Evidently Barksdale had come in intending to fight me. I knew that he would have no trouble with Mott, so I went back into the house. I expected a fight, and armed myself. I didn’t meet Barksdale and his coterie for a long time, but I kept myself ready to meet them whenever they might come on. A meeting occurred at last. I had just stepped out of my board- ing house, and saw Barksdale and the others coming along the street. I to pass them, saluting as I .did so, but they made no sign. I fully expected them to assault me, but they made no mo- tion to do so. I never felt so relieved as that night when I discarded my weapons. They had worn holes in my clothing. “Just to show the character of these Southern men let me tell yoy of an inci- dent that occurred some timé after that. My wife: was in Washington and had called for me to go to dinner with ther. A vote was coming on, and I wanted to get some one to pair with me. I went to Cobb of Georgia, with whom I had paired on a previous occasion. He happened to be aired with some one else, but said, ‘You’vVe een kind to me. I'll get some one to pair with you.’ Just then, a man sitting on the berch behind him, turned round. It was Barksdale, and Barksdale patred with me, It must have taken a good deal of moral courage for him to. get up before the House, who knew the whole story of our strained relations for a year, and say, ‘I am paired with-Mr. Potter of Wisconsin.’ But he did t. We were on the mest cordial terms after that. Barksdale was killed at Gettys- burg, at the head of the Confederate Regti- ment of which he was Colonel.”’ For the last ® years Mr. Potter lived in retirement. He was a great reader and his library was always supplied with the latest books and magazines. He was well to do and owned considerable land and mp in Wiscensin. He. leaves two aughters and a son, AMUSED HIM TO STEAL WHEELS Says He Stole Sixty Just “to Pass the Time Away.”’ NBDW YORK, May 2.—By his own admis- sion, the police say, John Laselle of 125 Fort Greene place, Brooklyn, steals bi- cycles for the amusement it afforded him thereby. He has puzzled the police, to whom hé made the statément. He is well dressed, of prepossessing appearance. He says he’was graduated from college, At his home the police were told by the prie- oner’s mother that she did not consider him altogether responsible for all his acts, Laselle was arrested upon the complaint of William Osgood, a bicycle dealer in Fulton street. He said that Laselle, after selecting a bicycle, ordered it sent to F. Jones, 15 Macon street. Before complying with the order Mr. Osgood sent to the ad- dress. The messenger reported that the house was vacant and that nO euch person in the neighbothood. Later in the afternoon Laselle again visited the store and wanted to know why the order had Mr. Osgood detained him, with Capt. Reynolds, of the detective squad “Now that you have got me, I suppose I might. as well tell you the truth about myself,’ said Laselle to Capt. Reynolds, “T have been doing this for 6éome time. have stolen in the neighborhood of § bi- cycles, and every one of them I pawned.” On his way to the police station Laselle entertained the detective with accounts of how he obtained bicyclee, and gave the names of several places where he said he had pawned them. Capt. Reynolds, after investigating La- selle’'s story, sald that he found that at two of the places where the prisoner said he had pledged bicycles he had never been seen or heard of by the proprietors. In default of Magistrate Brenner in the Adams Street Police Court commit- | ted Laselle to jail on a charge of vagrancy. When preseed for his reasons for making the confession he did, Laselle said: ‘I I stole to pase the time away.”’ IT CAN’T BE DONE. No One Can Remain Well, No Chronic Disease Can Be Cured Unless the Stomach is First Made Strong and Vigorous. This is plain bécause every organ in the body depends on the stomach for its nourishment. Nerve, bone, sinew, blood are made from the food which the stom- ach converts to our use. ' How useless to treat disease with this, that and the other remedy .and neglect the most important of all, the stomach. The earliest symptoms of indigestion are sour risings, bad taste in the mouth, gas in stomach and bowels, palpitation, all-gone feeling, faintness, headaches, constipation; later comes loss of flesh. consumption, liver and heart troubles, kidney diseases, nervous prostration, al] of which are the indirect result of poor nutrition, Any person suffering from indigestion should make it a practice to take after each meal one of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets, allowing it to dissolve in the mouth and thus mingle with the saliva and enter the stomach in the most nat- ural way. These Tablets are highly rec- ommended by Dr, Jennison because they are composed of the natural digestive ‘acids and fruit essences which assist the stomach in digesting all wholesome food before it has time to ferment and sour. Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are sold by druggists, full sized packages at 50 cents. They are also excellent for invalids and children.

In all 15 were found, together with Indian ar- row heads and wampum beads. Glassport is above McKeesport, on the Monongahela River. Until the United States Glass Co. purchased it a few years ago the place was naught but common farming and grazing land. But Aliquippa lived there at one time, and the Senecas, to do her honor, put up a pelatial shanty in which she held sway. Round about the | place the Senecas buried their dead. This was in 174. One hundred and forty- five years later the bones of the chieftains were brought to the light of day. Conroy, whase vick first pulled forth a grinning skull, and who afterwards shovel- |ed out the remainder of the skeleton, was not aware that he was desecrating an In- dian burial ground. The contractors did no; think of the Senecas and their dead when the order came to shove] out the earth and get a foundation for a factory. And so the bones of the Redskins have been tossed out of their resting place to make room for the march of progress. The bones were found interred under about two feet of earth. The heads of the graves in each instance pointed north, or toward the Monongahela River. In each of the graves were arrow heads and wampum beads, and mainly from this fact has it been judged that the burying place was that of the Seneca tribe of Indians. Con- firmation of this ts found in a pecullarity in the formation of the humerus, the bones of the upper arm, of Which about a dozen were found. In almost every case there is a hole in this bone. near the lower end. This is pecullar to the humerus of an In- dian. It ts never found in the same bone of a white man's skeleton. r ) Patrick | SHIPLOAD OF CURICS, ODD-LOOKING PRODUCTS OF OUB NEW POSSESSION. BROUGHT FROM MANILA Nova Scotia Ship Makes the Voyage With Little Filipinos as Its Sailors. NEW YORK, May 2.—The Nova Scotia ship, with a crew of 14 Filipino fishermen before | the mast, five white officers, an English | cabin boy, the captain’s family, an English stewardess and her Trinidad parrot, and a | collection of Philippine curiosities.

For instance, if a weather brace was iet go the crew knew that the lee brace waa to be hauled in.

Comrades, let us return thanks that his influence was not equal to the desire. While the surgeons of the Sixth are boast- ing of the superior health of the regti- ment, it is but just and proper, as can be abundantly verified, to say that the Sixth Missouri hospital was a disgrace to a civilized naticn. The regimental doctors were not only incompetent, but bluffed and bull-dozed the patients until they decided to elther mope around the company streets, more dead than alive, or spend a goodly portion of their $15.60 on civilian doctors. Most of the boys who were transferred to the division and then to some general gov- ernment hospital, came back hale and hearty, but those who were unfortunate enough to remain in regimental hospital— , well, the record books at Washington tell that. The doctors took pride tn ridiculing and abusing many who were sick. and when surgical cases came to them, there are in- | stances where the subject was no more or less than a study for them to practice on.

FINALLY AND FIRMLY SAID “NO” AND FLED. The Egyptian Prince Once Offered His Hand to the Daughter of John Wanamaker, but She Was Not Attracted. WASHINGTON, May 20.—Mehemet Ali Bey, brother to the Khedive of Egypt, has been flouted in his love, and’ there is no health in him. The woe of Mehemet Ali {s an American. But even this stout blow at the heart !s not the first for All. Once before a girl from the West politely said him nay, then took the next steamer for home. He that loves often never loves deep. Mehemet Ali will live. Meanwhile, the last young woman that he loved is on her way back to America. Her name is Miss Cora Randolph, ard, as you doubtless know, she ls a beautiful woman, indeed. Mekemet Ali on Oct. 28, 1875, he was born into this world. His father was Mehemet Tewfik Pasha, his mother, the lovely Emineh Hanem. One year before another eon had been born, the present Khedive Abbas Hilmy II. Now in January, '§2, old Tewfik Pasha, full of years and honors, departed from this world. After the usual month of mourning. the sack-cloth and ashes of grief gave way to the pomp and ceremony of coronation, and Abbas ascended the throne. Whe young Khedive was a turbulent youth. His independence and ambition outraged the English protectorate and, figuratively speaking, he waved his royal fist in the face of the British lion. Lord Cromer, British Minister Resident fn Cairo, and practically the ruler of Egypt, arose in his wrath. He made his say in no uncertain words, and for a while it looked to the world at jarge as if Abbas II.. Khe- dive of Egypt, Sovereign of Nubia and the Soudan, would step down from the royal throne and retire to a semi-private life. In the mind of all the world it was pos- eible that Mehemet Ali might acquire all the powers. thrones, titles and privileges of the Khedive. But Abbas II. surrendered at the last, though to this moment there is an occasional] report that Mehemet Ali will ascend this throne of Egypt. All this, you see, is what two American re ignored with the flouting of Mehemet To begin at the berinning of this affair: In October, 1897,. the American colony at Cairo was graced by the presence of Miss Wanamaker, daughter of the then Post- master General. John, of the same name, her brother, who was with her, was a ee friend of Mehemet All. who natural- saw something of the beautiful Phila- elphia girl, - There is no sense in saying that her money attraeted him, for Mehemet Ali has tt he can spend, and more, too. It was liss Wanamaker'’s great cleverness and dSeatily that attracted this successor to the Ptolemies, One day the Wanamakers left Cairo. They returned to their home in America. and rnumor followed at their heels. Hardly had they established themselves in their Phila- hee me co ae it wae reported by ca- e that Miss Wanamaker was engaged to marry Mehemet Ali. — The report came from _ semi-official sources. It seemed absolute. But it was ae: “There isn't a word of truth tn it.” s Mr. Wanamaker. “My son is a eriend of Prince Mehemet, but I wish to deny em- phat cally and absolutely that my daughter considers marriage.”’ Thus this romance ended. however, in Cairo that Mehemet Ali was suffering from some woe. He retired to one of the royal palaces, and for a season was seen no more, A year later he emerged again into the gayeties of the Cairo winter season. For a year he danced and rode and drove and played at farming, and was just an ordinary, affable, uninteresting little prince. _Then came Miss Cora Randolph. In New York society Miss Randolph ts a prominent young woman. She is a direct descendant from the Randolphs of Colonial days, and from time !mmemorial her family have en- joyed admission to the most exclusive cir- cles in any part of the United States. Once again Mehemet Ali sat wp and took Nnoitice. .. “Lam of mind,” said he, ‘but an American girl. est, most all women. So Mehemet Ali Bey, next in line to the throne of Egypt, offered his hand and heart to Miss Cora Randolph of New York. :. He was refused! Miss Randolph took as ‘her privilege, the right of every free-born, , independent American citizen. The throne (of Egypt offered no attractions to her. *Fven though the Prince would deny himself his prerogative and take to himee!f one wife Only. Miss Randolph flatly and firmly de- clined the honor he had done her. Having said so, she hastened away from Cairo, and from the sight of aspiring roy- alty. To-day, Mehemet All Bey hae retired where he mopes in again to his palace, solitary sorrow. Twice an American girl has shown the breadth of her independence, @nd Mehemet has seen enough. Royal society in Cairo, In consequence of this affair, is dead and dispirited, and no doubt when the next fair American ar- rives, will at once assume full mourning in anticipation of the Inevitable. Thus in America, to-day, are two young women that have refused the offer of a throne. PAWED TO DEATH BY A BULL Horrible Fate of a Kansas Stock Raixer in a Pasture on His Own Farm.

SET UP A GOVERNMENT OF HIS OWN ON THE LAKE FRONT. The Story of Capt. Streeter, the Sca- faring Squatter, Who Claims Title to Nearly 200 Acres of Made Ground. CHICAGO, May 2.—The records of the Cook County Court show that Capt. George Wellington Streeter has not aban- doned his fight for a fortune of $20,000,000. Just now the odds are against the Cap- tain. He has been compelled to oust him- seif from the “District of Lake Michigan,” which he claims by right of discovery and manufacture, while the police force of Chi- cago stands guard to see that the captain does not sneak back and take possession. The name of Streeter has been “bobbing up”? in the columns of the Chicago press for many years, but the opinions and in- formation of the generay public as to the exact nature of his claim and its justness may be described as decidedly hazy. There is a general impression that the Captain asserts his ownership of a valuable tract of North Side land by virtue of squatter sov- ereignty, but that the statute of Riparian Rights, a very intractable and domineer- ing individual, in some way intervenes, and the North Side property owners, rep- resented in the public’s eye by N. K. Fair- bank, J. V. Farwell and the Newberry lib- rary, say the Captain has no title at all, and that the land in dispute is plainly theirs, Capt. Streeter acquired his title from the fact that he once owned and commanded a vessel on Lake Michigan. The Rutan it was named. This vessel used to ply be- tween Chicago and M‘iwaukee in the ‘Ss, stopping at intermediate points to pick up passengers, and with it the captain dida profitable business,he says, averaging about $30 a day net profit. Indirectly, the Rutan was the means of getting the captain in- terested in North Side property. In June, 1886, the captain was returning from Mil- waukee when a furious storm arose on the lake. The Rutan steamed along in the teeth of the gale, trying to make the Chi- cago River, but it was useless. The gale was too strong, and the Rutan was cast ashore at the foot of Superior street on the North Side. The water at this point was shallow, but the great waves raised in the lake by the storm kept lift:ng the Rutan up and taking it further in, and as the bot- tom was sand and free from rocks, the vessel sustained no particular damage, and the captain stuck to the craft. When the gale had abated the captain took an ‘“‘observation’’ to determine his po- sition. He found himself 451 feet—there are a few inches and a fraction additiona! in the captain's account—east of St. Clair street, which was then the shore line of that section of the North Side. Between the shore line and the captain's gallant bark the waters of Lake Michigan rolled Piacidly, with an occasional shoal of sand obtruding above the surface. If the eap- tain had entertained any though of rescu- ing his boat he soon abandoned it. The waves having cast it where it was seemed determined to keep it there. They began to pile up the sand around it on all sides, and finally had it so hemmed in as to make its rescue an impossibility. The captain accepted the situation. He determined to abandon a life on the wave for a life on shore. He assisted the opera- tions of nature in filling up the shallow waters of the lake, and soon had a dry expanse between his vessel and the shore line. His vessel he converted into a house, and in the course of time erected a super- structure on its deck, where he and his wife lived. In the meantime the lake kept pling up sand to the eastward of Captain 8 rae Be boat, and soon placed it far in- land. The captain is a good deal of a lawyer in his way—a sea way. He reasoned that this land waa without an owner, and that it might as well be his as anyone else's. It was his by the right of discovery, he ar- gued.. The captain indignantly repudiated the title of ‘‘squatter,’’ which has been ap- plied to him, and eays that only applies to other people who have since tried to ob- tain possession of the property. But when the capfain set up his claim to ownership of the soil he at once encounter- ed violent opposition from owners of prop- erty abutting on the old shore line, who based their claims on the aforesaid ripar- jan rights, which conferred upon them ali the accretions that nature might make to their original possessions, They began pro- ceedings to oust Capt. Streeter, and as- ©ert their title, but the captain fought them, and successfully, until the Chicago police force recently conquered him. In all these years since Capt. Streeter was first cast ashore, the territory in dispute has grown enormously in extent. In addi- tion to the work of the waves in casting up sand to fill the shallow places, it has been used as a dumping ground until now there are 186 acres of land in a territory which is bounded on the east by a line drawn 451 feet east of St. Clair street, on the north by Oak street, on the south by the Chicago River, and on the east by the Lake Shore dri ve.

After deep cogitaltion over this discovery, the startling fact dawned upon the Captain’s mind that the State of Illinois and the county of Cook had no juris- diction over his territory.

He has found peo- le who had enough faith in the validity of is title to buy and pay hie for lots in the disputed territory, while others, of a specu- lative turn of mind, have purchased on the chance that the title might hold, and they would in consequence reap a rich return on their investment.

Sofa, Rocker, Arm Chair, RPAPRPAAEPA tory were armed in anticipation of hos- tilities from the neighboring State of Li- linois, which was suspected of annexation tendencies. These suspicions were well founded. An armed force of bluecoats de- scended on the new territory and drove its officials and citizens into exile. They are now men without a@ country. As the case now stands, the north shore claimants, under riparian rights, have de- cidedly the best of the controversy. They have the traditional nine points of the law, by possession, and are fortified in their claims to ownership by some of the best legal talent in the city and State, which has been ee: upon the case. Among others John P. Wilson, who has thoroughly investigated the subject, says there is not a shadow of doubt as to their rights, and one of the wealthiest corporations in the city in its line, after looking up the sub- ject, has declared its willingness to guaran- tee any title that may be given by the ri- parian-right owners. Since Capt. Streeter’s ejectment from the land William H. Cox bobs up with a claim s0 plausibly stated and so fortified by al- leged quotations from official surveys, treaties with Great Britain, treaties with the Indians, etc., as to make the credulous gasp with astonishment at his good for- tune. There is nothing modest about Mr. Cox and his claim. He not only lays claim to the Streeter tract, but to that of the Kinzie purchase from the Government upon which are the houses of Potter Palmer, N. K. Fairbank, J. V. Farwell, and the Ogden and Sheldon estates. among others. Mr. Cox says he bought all this land from the Indians, who alone wete able to give a title, and waves aside as unimportant the fact that Robert A. Kinzie purchased and received title from the United States Gov- ernment. Capt. Streeter is not all worried about the Cox claim. “That's only a friendly move, he said, when asked about it. ‘“‘“Cox and me are working together in this. I have bought from him and have a quitclaim deed to any interests he might have had in my property. The only thing that he now claims over there is the 451-foot strip between the west- ernedge of my property and the eastern line of St. Clair street. Of course, he has got his rights to the property known as the Kinzie tract yet.” A few years ago a well-known attorney of this city was approached by people in- terested in the Streeter claim with a sug- gestion that he look into it, with a view (to subsequent action. This he consented to do, the result being that, without attempt- ing to form an opinion on the rights of the Streeter claimants, the lawyer concluded that the shore owners would be willing to pay them a reasonable sum in order to quiet their title to the property, rather than to have the matter drag along in expensive and annoying litigation. The attorney stated his conclusions to a number of the squatter claimants, and indl- cated his willingness to take up their case on that basis—a compromise. hey all as- sented heartily to the scheme, and thought it a_gvod one. “Well, how much will you be willing to take on such a proposition, Mr. Cox?’ asked the attorney. “One million dollars cash,” Cox. Inquiry of the others revealed that they all had about the same conception of what a compromise should be. Streeter thought about $6,000,000 eash would do him. and then the lawyer threw up his hands. “I'll go no further.” he said. “If your demands were in any way reasonable I mght effect a set- tlement, but they are preposterous,’ and that ended the attempt at a compromise. Capt. Streeter has managed to instil) his confidence in the juetice of his cause into muny people. He Is essentially a man of one idea—that of his claim—and by dint of perpetual hammering away on it and citing conditions and precedents which his hear- ers are not in a position to controvert or for years to responded VACCINATED 1,000,000, PORTO RICANS BEING SCRAPED BY THE SURGEON’S ENIFE. VACCINE POINTS WERE MADE. The Island Was Divided Into Fiwe Sections and Not a Person Escaped the Ordeal. Special to the Post-Dispatch. NEW YORK, May 20.—Vaccinating a na- tion, or more properly speaking, the pop- ulation of an island, is now being done vy the army medical staff in Porto Rico. There are about 1,000,000 persons all to!d and of that number nearly three-quarters have been inoculated with smallpox virus. Early last winter it was found that small- pox was spreading rapidly in the vicinity of Ponce. Chief Surgeon John Van R. Hoff feared an epidemic and so reported to Gen. Guy V. Henry, the Military Governor of the island. With his usual promptness and without consulting a higher authority, the General ordered the medical depart- ment to vaccinate every person in the island including the officers and soldiers of the American army. It would have cost $100,000 to buy the “points,” so instead a great herd of cattle was secured. From most of the cows S* vaccine points were taken, and from some a stl larger num- ber. The points were then packed in boxes by a corps of six surgeons and Sv hospital stewards. In all 100,00 poinis were taken and sent out each week. The island was then divided into five sec- tions, comprising the old five Spanish ju- dicial districts. Kach had a popuiation of 165,000 persons, a large percentage of whom were women and children. A surgeon was placed tn charge of each district and a corps of hospital nurses were given him to assist htm. When the surgeons got well to work the sights about their headquarters beg«ared description. Men and women tore the left sleeves from their shirts, and soon thousands were about nursing swelled arms bared to the shoulder. The missing sieeve soon came to be as much of a mark of vaccination among Porto Ricans as the small red cross on their dusky skins. LIGHT AND POWER COMBINE.

HOHENSCHILD, It will be observed from this roll call that every Republican voted for adjourn- ment. They had declared over and over again during the day that they wouid ’ vote with the friends of franchise legisla- tion to punish the lobby for its part in the passage of the St. Louis and Kansas City election bills. But when it Came to the ecratch they ail laid dowm just as they have on every other proposition tin which their surrender of principles was to the advantage of the lobby. The franchise question has been like Mo- hamet’s coffin all day. One hour it seemed gure of a right settlement and the next its chatices seemed to bécome infinitesmal. The final action came in the House after the Senate adjourned on,the majority and minority reports from the Conference Com- mittee. The majority report was to the liking of the lobby. It recommended that amendments, leaving the bill inthe ferm in which it passed the House. In this form it. mtained a general franchise provision, This report was presented by Mr. Noel of Jackson County. It was signed by himself and Senators Morton and Burkhead. ‘Representative Wilson of St. Louis pre- sented the minority’ report, signed by him- Ma. or. It recommended that the House sta by its amendments to the Senate amendments, specifying the franchises of railroad, street raijway, tele- grap express companies as subjects of taxation, in addition to the franchises of telephone, gas, water, conduit and electric companies, which were spetified in the Senate’s amendments. e e Was very plainly for the mi- nority report. The leaders were of the that the lobby wanted no revision venue lawa and that the bill stood no nee of passaeg in any shape. They believed the House should stand by its per- fect franchise provis'on and let the Senate take the responsibility of defeating fran- chise legislation. Slate and Kneislev advised them to stand by their amendments. Both made strong » ches, saying the franchise provisions manded by the House were the only feat- wree of the bill worth fighting forvand that e whole revised bill might as well be de- ated as to defeat the amendmenis. 7 The minority report was adopted unani- f@ously.

In the hush that followed the adjourn- ment Davisson’s voise hoarsely gave proof of his gameness, for ‘he was stlil talking. The Senate Republicans really deserved the passage of the election bills. They went into a combination with the lobby to defeat franchise and Other legislation. In return for their services the election bill was to be killed. They were thrown down, as every~- body expected they would be. The bill was drawn by Ex-Secretary of State Michael K. McGrath. P. R. Fitzgib- bons, John Ratigan and other St. Lotis pol- iticlans have watched its interests only second to McGrath and Senator Drabelle. The biil provides that in all cities hav- ing 300,000 the Governor with, and by, the advice of the Senate, and within: 30 days after the act is a law, appoint three com- missioners, who shall hold office for four years. One of them is to be a member of the leading party politically opposed to that to which the Governor bélongs. In: making the nominations the Governor is to desig- nate «the chairman. The commissioners shall be citizens of the State and of the city for five years. The commissioners are to appoint a dep- uty, who is also Secretary of the Board, and may employ additional clerica¥ force and other assistance necessary. There shall be regisiration by the commissioners or Cepety at any time at the office of the oarda, There shall also "be registration in the precincts as at present, The commissioners are to receive $2500 a year and the clerks in the office are to receive #4 a day. It is unders'ood that Chancey Ives Filley fe. to be the Republican Election Commis- sioner. The bill practically turns the entire elec- tlon machinery over to the Democrats. All the clerks in the office will be appoint- ed by the two Democrats, who will also select all judges and clerks. It provides for registration; it also provides for registra- tion all the year round at the office of the commissioners and three days of precinct registration’ before each election, It is a artial return to the old recorder of voters aw, which caused so much trouble when An interesting point has been raised in connection with the passage of the two election bills. The Kansas City election bill is an amendment to the eléction law of 189, which applies to both Kansas City and St. Louis. he St. Louls election bill is a complete new law and repeals the law of 18%. The question Immediately arises whether the law of 189, which the Kansas City bill amends, having been repealed by the St. Louis bill, this does not leave ansas City without anv election law. Senator Lyons of Kansas City says this is the case. On the other hand, ft Is contend- ed that since the St. Louls biil repeals a law applying to both cities, it must neces- sarily apply to both and will so be con- strued by the courts. Still, again, it is con- tended that it depends entirely upon which bill the Governor signs last. It Is said the one he signs last will be the law. The point is interesting enough to set Kan- sas City politicians to wondering where they stood. HOW IT WAS DONE. Details of the Debate and Roll Call on the Bill. Special to the Post-Dispatch. JEFFHRSON CITY, Mo., May N— Immediately after the passage of the Kansas City election bill, Senator Morton moved that the St. Louls election bill be taken up for passage, and that it be voted on atl o’clock. Tiae Republicans protest- ed against the gag law and Morton with- drew it, with the understanding that no attempt be made to adjourn before the passage of the bill. Lyons, qa Democrat, aald it was a partisan measure and its friends intended to pass the bill anyhow and there was no use in delaying matters. The Republicans earnestly protested against the brutal action of the majority in insisting that the bill be forced to pas- sage. He said solemn pledges had been broken, He moved to Jay the matter over until 2 o'clock, The motion was defeated, Mott then filed a protest, signed by Repub- licans, against the further consideration of the bill. Senator Morton made the point that the protest was out of order at this ‘time and Mott withdrew it. A long debate followed over the right’ of the members to file protests. The Preasi- dént finally allowéd Republican Senators to Tlé a protest. The Republicans then continued their ef- fort to delay action on the bill, although they knew their fight wae hopeless. Part of their programme was the offering of countless amendments. Senator Morton lost patience very soon and declared that if such tactics were to be followed he wouid demand that the debate be limited. The Democrats allowed no recess for dinner. The Republicans took up the time with filibustering speeches against the Dili. A few of the emocrats, driven by the angs of hunger, slipped out and procured fa shes, but theré were always a suffi- client number left to hold thetr power. At 2 o'clock Senator Haynes got the floor a moment and moved that debate be closed at 2:30 o'clock. Senator Morton was in the chair.

Major will see that the fran- chise provisions as adopted by the House have every advantage possible. Davisson took the floor at 12:30, At 1:30 he caused a long law to be read, and dur- ing the reading he ate a lunch. Davisson continued to speak until 2:30 o'clock. At 2:30 o’clock the gavel fel! and Senator Schweickardt protested loundly. Morton declared the motion to put the bill upon its third reading, amid great confusion. Davisson did not leave the floor. He continued to speak. The Senate chamber was in a state of wildest uproar, Republican Senators continued to shout while the roll call was in progress, Davis- son talked on, his point being that so long as he was on the floor the Senate could not vote on the bill. Senator Lyons, a Dem- ocrat, joined in to shout out a protest against the passage of the bill. Rollins shouted: “If this Senate is to resort to out- lawry let it do it.”” ~ The lobby applauded and shouted, but still the roll cail went on, Morton pound- ing the desk and the sergeant-at-arms rushing about, demanding order. The Democrats’ were compelled t6 go to the desk to see that théir votes were re- corded. The bill was passed 22 to 1. The title was agreed to while Davisson talked on. When Morton announced the bill passed there was a great shout Dut when it died down Davisson continued to talk.

An interesting celebration occurreé Wednesday at 6220 Michigan avenue, the home of Mrs. Marguerite Primm, widow of the late Judge Wilson Primm. It was the anniversary of the family moving in their present home on Michigan avenue 50 years azo. The celebration was in the nature of a family reunion, and the time was passed pleasantly. The family all have musical ten- dencies. and the whole afternoon was spent fin singing the old songs which, as children, they had sung together. Four generations were present—Mrs. Primm, her children, her grandchildren and her great grandchildren. Mrs. Primm comes of an old French family, one of the first to reach th's country and settle in the vicinity of St. Leuls. Mrs. Marguerite Primm’'s name was Marguerite Guyon. Her grand- father was the first white boy born in 8t. Louis, while her great grandfather, one of the first settlers in the vicinity of St. Louis, was killed in an Indian massacre. Mrs. Primm was born in St. Louis in 1816. She grew to womanhood in the city and Was married to Wilson Primm in 1812. Wil- fon Primm, her husband, was one of the best known professional men of his time. A clear and logical thinker, he rapidly gained prominence in his chosen profes- Wilson Primm was born in &t, Louis He was sent to the Jesuit College at Bardstown, Ky., where he went through the regular colleg> course of studies. Com- ing to St. Louis he began the study of law, reading in the office of Judge Edward Bates for two years. At the age of 21 he was admitted to the 8t. Louis bar. While still a etry, | man he was elected to the position of Judge of the Crim-nal Court, which position he held for 12 years without any opposition. At the end of that period he was approached by the leaders of the Democratic party, who asked h'm to be their candidate for Judge and promising to use all their influence to secure his re- election. Judge Primm declined this of-. fer, saying that in the administration of justice he did not intend to be hitched to any party, as he did not think it was rigot, He then ran for Judge independently and : ted.

A few years before being elected Crimina! Judge, Mr. Primm purchased the piece of ground on which stands the Primm tome- stead and his father-in-law, Mr. erected a small brick dwelling as a gift to the then newly married coupie. The house was only one story high, with only four roome,but the grounds were extensive.and in those days a brick house was considered a Valuable possession, even if of such small extent. Here their family grew up and here Judge Primm died. At the reunion Wednesday Mrs. Mar- verite Primm had all her children together. hey were: Vincent Primm of Caio, a clerk in the office of the Missourt Pacific; J. B.

Just now all the talk In sporting circles {fs the forthcoming battle between Robert Fitzsimmons and James Jeffries.

The Coney Island Athletic Club fs not sat- istied of with taking away the championship battle from Denver. but is now figuring on a tight for the middleweight champion- ship of the world for the same evening be- tween Kid McCoy and Tommy Ryan of Svracuse, the contest that the Colorado Athletic Association was expecting to se- eure for July. With the prospect of seeing two such fights in one day sports from all over the land will be seen hurrying on to New York a day or two before the batttles are to take place, and the arena of the Coney Island Club will, undoubtedly, ‘be taxed to its capacity when the fights are actually brought off in it. Mornest Roeber, who ts withthe champion at present. saye that Fitz is now bigger, better and stronger than ever, and that he will surely win. Tom Kelly of St. Louls, once the prince of seconds, on the other hand, thinks that Jeffries may win out, Tom remembers how good Corbett and Sullivan were in their youthful days, and ¢o0 he thinks in ee pe fight youth may serve Fitz a mean ric McCoy thinks Fitz will win. “Yes,’’ he favs, “Jeffries is much the bigger. That will make him all the easier mark for the other fellow.’’ Charley Daly, onee the leading Iight- Welght of St. Louis, picks Fitz, but it yrould not surprise him to see Jeffries and. Prof. Mooney says: “Jeffries is a fine big fellow, but he impressed me as being too slow for ‘tz. Ryan may teach him a trick or two that may help him, but to beat the Cornishman Nhe will have to fight faster and better than in any of his other fights.’’ “Fitz,” says Tom Allen, “has knocked out all kinds of men, and who, I pray you, has this bloomin’ Jeffries knocked out? Still stranger things have happened. He may win. So may T 20 to ’Eaven in a ‘and cart if the Lawd will only let me.” ss silly Madden, who is a first-rate a and who has seen both men fight, thinks Jeffries has a mighty good chance. —_—-—- e———_ WITH THE BOXERS. i'enty of Matches on the Tapis Before the Local Clubs.

Several of Their Best Players on tie Sick Ligt, but They Are Still Playing a Winning Game. Ww The second month of the 1899 baseball season is progressing and St. Louis still ranks best and is holding on to the top round of the ladder. Despite the fact that the local team was presented with last Sunday’s game with the Reds, by Wilson, not what it should be. Wednesday afternoon St. Louis had Louis- ville as their opponents. On the preceding Monday and Tuesday the locals defeated the Colonels hands down, but on Wednes- day two men of Nick Young’s staff of um- pires, called Burns and Smith, played a regular ‘‘A}kali Ike’’ hold-up trick on Pat Tebeau and evened things for the Reds, by deliberately taking a game that looked easy for St. Louis, and handing it to the Colonels on a silver plate. It was in the seventh inning. The score was 2 +o 1 in Louisville’s favor. St. Louis had the basew full and only one out, when the sman called Smith walked from the fiel4, calling the game. The rain then was or'y falling light :@id it was no more than fair that St. Louis should have been given her half of the inning. The worst St. Lou'e couki possibly have done was to tie the score. In one of the Pittsburg series in St. Louis, Tebeau’s men were ahead when it began to rain, but they never murmured about that, but played like men and gave the Pirates all the chance that could be asked, to even up matters. The Pittsburg men falled to make uee of the opportunity and not until the rain fell in torrents and drove the fielders from the field were the umpires asked to call the game. A game is a game, and to win_one means a great deal to a club like St. Louis, that is on top and stands a chance for the pennant. Brooklyn, who is following close after &t. Louls is eurely “up against it good and atrong.”’ Their hard luck began when the season started, but no one knows when or where it will end. Their hospital list is large. Dahlen, their crack third baseman, is down with fever, and it will be several weeks before he will be able to don his uniform and play his old game. The article of ball that was put up by nim when the season opened and until he took sick, was hard to equal. His fielding safely assured him a monopoly on the third bag and his hitting was of a kind that could draw a salary for iteelf. Jones, their center flelder, was injured in @ collision while fielding a ball. Grimm, one of the 6tar backstops of the club, was knocked out by the cold spell. Dunn, one of their best pitchers, has a bad finger. Surely, with all these accidents, Ned Han- lon has had quite a load to carry, but nevertheless he is bearing up manfully under it all. In Dahlen’s place on the third corner he has placed Casey, the emallest man in the league. The little fellow played last year with Toronto and when Arthur Irwin closed the Bastern League season, he took a batch of youngsters to Washington with him and worked them out the latter part of the National League season. Of the batch, Casey showed up ae well as the rest, and proved himself to be a good man with the willow. He played on Washing- ton’s team the first part of this season and enly recefitly was he traded to Brooklyn. He is playing a star game in Dahilen's ab- eence and has made quite a hit with the Brooklyn fans. Anderson ts payne in Jones’ place in center field and doing well. Grimm and Dunn have several good men to take the.r piaces for them so they are not missed. The Cincinnati boye had a cinoh at Pitts- burg. On their visit to the “Smoky City’ they added feur new scalps to thelr beit. The Pirates were outclassed’ by the Reds, who played all around them. Ewing is atill rubbing Bhe sore he has had since last Sunday's game in St, Louis. He will not eoon forget Zeke Wilson. He sits around with a look in his face when he thinks of the mame that seems to say ‘There'll come a Ume.” In every city tn th® National League ing the patronage h picked up.. Nearly meunta last week, over the settil atyle eu Monday to the tune of $90.00, | where a ball team af ck a good show. every city that has team in the first | games, | veryv their percentage is, division is giving its club Rood support and this will go a great way in adding to the interest in the National League race. Cleveland, the only dead fall, has not had enough persons present at any the seats in the grand etand. Lave Cross says the attendance is ‘‘tmall, but select.” Another year may drop Cleveland, but it is likely that they will play this season out. Speaking of sacrifices of personal record, it is hard to induce a player to do that necessary act, and it affects veterans and young “comers” alike. Young Flick, the Quaker rightfielder, ‘had an instance of it last Wednesday. Two flies were hit into what is properly his territory. In each in- stance Lajole had begun to chase them and caught both, while Flick who came in, stood near by. The youngster flew into a rage and called his more seasoned mate down for taking what he considered his chances. The Chicago “Orphans” thhave been doing well of late. They drop a game now and then to ‘break the monotony of winning. When they played at home the Chicago fans gave them a warm welcome and in return the Orphans played several up-hill pulling cthemeeives out of some tight places. Manager Burns is still of the opinion that he will land the pen- nant, but he has not met any extra strong teams so far and may change his tune when Roston and Brooklyn meet him. St. Louis may also change their tune and position — those two teams get through with them. ‘The. Cincinnati, Philadelphia and Boston clubs, who aire the other three contestants in the second division, have rot been doing anything out of the ordinary in the past week. “hey all seem to have their ups and downs. One day they win and the next they lose, but neither team seems to be gaining on the three leaders. Cincinnati is playing great ball. Their playing at the present date is 60 good that the poor work at the opening part of the season can be forgiven. The fielding of the team is fast and the batting above the general standard. The Philadelphia Club have dropped from second to fifth place in the race, The team is a good one and although they played wonderful ball at the opening of the season they may have been playing ahead of their true gait. The fall of the team is a dire disappointment to the “Quaker City” fans, who thought the Phillies were near the top to stay. Boston has not been playing bad ball, nor has the team been doing anything wonder- ful. They win and lose, but slowly and surely they are increasing their percentage. The St. Louis team will play New York again this afternoon. The attendance will probably rival that of last Sunday. Bobby Wallace, the little third baseman, who plays such a consistent game, made two or three bad breaks last week. In last Tueedav's game he made a bad throw to first, which resulted in almost a run being scored. The fans did not sour on Bobby, but were all willing to forgive him, as his un- equaled work of the first part of the season has been almost letter perfect. The strained relations which have exist- ed between the Pittsburg Club and Mana- er W. H. Watkins eince the return of W. ’ Kerr to the Presidency have been sev- ered and Outflelder Donovan, whom the late incumbent succeeded, is again in charge of the Pirates. It is said that other changes are contemplated. Mr. Watkins’ declaration that he is done with base ball for all time must not be taken seriously. Whatever the cause, his administration in Pittsburg was rot a success. In 1898 he was the club's President, as well as the team's manager, and should accept full responsi- bility for results, which were undeniably disappointing. The Pittsburg team of 1899 is stronger than that which represented that city in 1898, but bad weather during the preparatory period and accidents to players have so handicapped it that it has made a miserable showing in the race. Mr. Watkins, it is understood, has an iron-clad contract for a term of three years at $5000 a year and it is hardly probable that his retirement was saggested by him.

DETAILED RESULTS OF THE FIN- AL SHOOT-OFFS. Wrs. Shattuck Has Reason to Be Proud, Gaving Made a New Record for Women—Complete Scores of All Events. The twenty-second annual tournament of the Missouri State Fish and Game Associ- ation was finished at the Dupont Shoot- ing Park with the fall of darkness yester- day.evening—rather it was not finished, but ’ {t closed just the same, as it was thought it over Sunday, better. not to continue thouge veral events remained unsettled.

The greatest contest yesterday—the great- ‘est of the week, in fact—was in the shoot , off for the Republic cup. which early nar- + rowed down, from the 11 straight 75 bird ' men to C. A. Young and the veteran Je A. |. Elliott. Seldom has such shooting been ; seen in St. Louis—never outside of a match , between two men. It was done mostly in a , pouring rain; the birds were nearly all , Keen, sharp fiyers, and the two men were , cool, careful and steady, despite the strain. . The shoot was for five birds, losers out, five , Tore, and so on. ' Of the 11 men—Sergeant left town and withdrew—Heikes was the first man in the race to lose; his first bird skimmed the fence, and it was virtually all off for him, ‘GotthHeb’s second bird went over the fence. ‘and Dr. Smith's second was dead out of , bounds. Budd’ lost his third; so did Dr. ' Smith; then they waited on the rain a bit. | Heikes’ fifth died out of bounds, and he | with Gottlieb, Budd and Dr. Smith, dropped ,; out as the shooters began on their second ve, Cockrill lost his sixth, and refused to shoot it out any further. Jim Elliott winged his ninth and insisted on retrieving it him- self, through mud ankle deep, but he got it. At the end of the ten, both the Elliotts, . Young, Collins and Gay wesc still in the ame. Thirteen was unlucky for both Col- ‘jJins and Gay, their birds dying out of bounds, and both BDliliott and Young began on the fourth 5, ‘“‘miss and wafit.’’ Dave lost his 18th, and went out. Then ‘followed a beautiful race ‘between bee 'and Jim Elliott. Straight on they went til Young's 68th bird flew over the fence. El- liott started to shoot out the 70; but lost his last one. This put Youngin the game again and they went at it with renewed vigor at 4 o'clock. Capt. Mony made a beautiful retrieve of Young’s 77th bird, right at the fence. Elliott’s 988d went over the fence to die and that ended it for him. Charlie Young finished this 5 and won the Republic cup with 94 out of 95 birds.

C. cup tournament was stretched through the week and not until late yes- terday evening was the result known, This turned out to be the only big event in which ro ties occurred, Crosby winning it by a ‘score of 265 out of a possible #0. Fred Gil- bert and C. O. Young were second, with | 262 and Gay third, with 260, The full score ‘for the week vais: a was a day of decisions, and with the contests closed earlier in the week the list of prize-winners was filled out as fol- to tothe lenged Rolla Heikes the “castiron” medal. h little value that was put up amon : e crack shooters themselves, in 189%, when there was no wing shot championship trophy, end was so called because whoever won !t thereby obtained a “castiron cinch on the title o champion. pg Poems : ‘e 7 oa - had it first; later held by Hetkes, er eral surprises in were 6evV * the frst ace, i was the first event of the so . Loul has had; & bn 5 bigger than the shooters here expected, and they had not prepared for it so fully as they will next year. It gave the sporiemen andthe tcwn a taste of real trap shootirg tournaments, and they promise next year to be ly prepared for a ty Mandya Syed mage and to go out and see them when they come. Perhaps the biggest surprise of the week was the failure of the Kansas City cracks to do battle. Kansas City is the best all- around trap shooting town in the country, ami more fine shots hail from there than from many whole States. Yet the Kansas City men return With only two first honors, the team prize and the State championship, both taken the first part of the ‘week. The Kantas City men started out brashly, but they didn’t keep up the pace, J. A. R. El- Hott, undoubtedly the best wing-ehot in America to-day, did not take a prize, though be was in the money on all events, and among the straights on several, as well as in the veteran team. Another surprise was the way the St. Louis men climbed up as the week passed. Dye were among the “also rans’’ at first; in the end they were up with the winners. In the Dupont, Repubiic and Lemp cun- tests they were represented among the straights, and they settled the last contest among themselves. The future of trap shooting ‘s bright here and next year St. Louis men may numbered among the cracks of the country. Mrs. Shattuck bas reason to be proud of her work here—very proud. She has made a new record for women shooters; none has ever been so high as second money before, and she has two twenty-fours and one twenty-three to her credit. ‘She is a fine shot, much given to the use of only the Srst barrel, and she excited great interes- and liberal applause By her clever kills. . V. Rieger, ithe referee of the tourna- ment, is enthusiastic over its success. He said last night: better shooting than we had here week's tournament. : e never saw 0-day, and that Young-Elliott race was th finest I ever wtinessed.

The New Jersey Boys Win From Col- unibia by Nearly Twenty Points. PRINCETON, N. J., May 20.—Princeton won this afternoon in the dual meet with Columbia by a score of 611-6 to 4256, The agreement limited events to three men on a side, which did away with trial heats, except in the hurdles. : here was a fierce wind blowing nearly Straight up the track and fast time was out of the questiogn. The day was cold and the attendance small. The finest race, from the spectators’ standpoint, was the mile run. Six men started and ran tandem for a lap. Mosen- thal of Columbia then forged ahead of the line. Two men dropped out in the last lap and the four were in a ‘bunch. At this point Cregan shot ahead of Mosenthal, with Thurston in third place and Chamber- lain right behind him. Wis is exactly how the four men finished, except that in the last quarter Chamberlain, by hard sprint- ing. beat out Thurston for third place. 1 Yards—Jarvis, Princeton, won. Time, 10 3-5s.

That Event Was Taken by the Burns & Waterhouse Entry, Macy Running Last. The first week of the Fair Grounds meet- ing came to a close with Saturday’s races. Ever since the meeting opened the track conditions have been fearful. One day the course has been heavy, the next dey dry and lumpy, the next day dry, the next soaking wet and the next knee deep. Running to form, in consequence, has been out of the question, and surprises have been the order all week. All week the talent has been at gea, and the bookies had things all their own way. A bookmaker who did not edd a good- sized wad wo hjs bank rol] last week had better get out of the business, for he will never have a better chance, . Saturday, like the other days of the week at the Fair Grounds, was a4 y of eur- prises for the talent. Six favorites were, of course, in line, but four outsiders had the speed and won. In spite of the rain the bettiag ring was acked to its utmost capacity, and the ookies had ell they could do to handle the money. The feature of the day’s card was the (Mississippi Valley ‘Stake for $1500. Dr. Sheppard, the winner of the Inaugural Stake on the opening day, galloped home again in front. Macy, Crocket and Tulla Fonso were the other starters. Just before the race Brewer Schorr & Son sold Macy toe Charles Vesta of East St. Loyis, for $3500. The clever little horse was favorite and the talent bet heavily on him. Dr. Sheppard was touted as a poor thing in the mud and the bookies laid 8 to l against him. He was off with the first ones and not once in the whole route did he have to extend himself. Crocket showed a burst of speed in the stretch but failed to head off the Doctor, who won 4 two lengths. Thorpe, who rode Sheppard, is responsible for his winning. The boy worked on him the whole route and was almost exhausted when the race was finished. ‘Macy was 3 to 6 in the ring and the plungers backed him to a man. He was off first but ran a very disappointing race, He fell back at the half and seemed to be dead on his feet. He did not show any of his last week’s form and his race was of the poorest order. Crocket was second and Tulla Fonso third, while Macy finished last, The first race was won by Helen Paxton, an 8 to 1 shot. She'’romped home in front of Prince ‘Michael, who was favorite with 5 to 2 against him. a Suttgart was third In this race. He had plenty of speed and finished strong. The winner and second horse ran fair. The former was far the best, while the latter Was not up to the distance. Jimp, who had a good chance, stumbled at the Read of the stretch. Meadowthorpe won the second, This is the third time Schorr has started the son of imp. Kantaka—Baby and this {is the first time out of the three starts he has shown his speed. He was easily the best and took to the mud like a duck takes to wa- ter. The bookies were “‘stingy’’ and made Meadowthorpe a 6 to 6 favorite, notwith- Standing his previous poor showing. Ransom, who won the second race Friday from a crowd of selling platers, was second and seemed to like the mud. (Marplot, who beat Meadowthorpe his last out, was third. He quit at the end and was all out. One of the surprises of the day was the winning of Forget Not over Moroni. Forget Not was down on the boards at 4 to 1, while (Moroni was al to 2 shot. Moroni hag been run too much of late and has gone back. The race he ran Saturday was a poor one and showed clearly that the horse is get- ting stale. Forget Not was off in front and was never headed. Basquil was third. He ran his race at the post. Raffaello was the good thing in the fifth race. He got left at the post and at the half was fully eight lengths out of it. As the horses headed t@ the stretch he extended himself and finished a close sec- ond to Fervor, a2 tolshot. Raffaello was far the best and had he gotten away with the bunch, would have galloped home. Dave Waldo led all the firet part, but in the stretch blew up and finished fourth. Waldo was backed from fours to 6 to 4. Found was third and was favorite. In the last race on the card, Richard, J., the invincible, won in a welk from Fires Me. Richard J. was on the boards at 7 to 10, and was backed off the boards. He got off in front and won as he pleased. Fireside was all out. Gold Band ran a fair race ami finished third. First race, one mile—Helen Paxton 106 (Gilmore), 6 to 1, won by two lengths; Prince Michel 110 (Burns), 7 to 1, second; Stuttgart 107 (Lins), 20 to 1, third. Time 1:49.

LOUISVILLE, Ky., May 20.—The Ken- tucky Oaks was won by Tom McDowell's Wadseworth-Reine d'Or 3-year-old filly, Rush, to-day over a muddy track. May Hempstead, winner of the Tennessee Derby and the Tennessee Oaks, met her first defeat to-day in this race, partly be- cause Rush at the weights and over a track exuctiy to her liking, was beet, and partly because Turner, Who rode May Hempstead, was overconfident. Rush shot to the front at flag-fail and opened up a gap of three lengths. Turner on Hempstead, figured that Rush woul come back to him and let her get six lengths in the lead when the head of the home stretch was reached. Hill kept Rush going and Hempstead could never get acy closer to her, thovgh Turner rode her vigor- ously until he saw that his mount was beaten, when he eased her up. This was the last day of the Loulsville meeiing.

CINCINNATI, May 20.—The Derby, to be run at Lattonia next Tuesday, May 23, will have the following starters: rsine, Prince McClurg, His Lordship, Ways and Means and Leoplanter. The stake is worth to the winner $7600. His Lordship and Ways and Means are now artered at Latonia and were given their final work-out for the race to-day. Each went the Derby route, one and one- half miles, in 2:37%, with more weight than they carry in the race. The work Is re- garded as remarkable by those. who wit- nessed it, and good enough to win. The de- termination of the club to have an open betting ring has added to its popularity, end prospects are good for a successful meeting. The betting ring at Newport got a scorch- ing to-day on Rastus, Dutch Comedian and Fair Deceiver. Rastus was backed down from 6 to 1 to 3 to 1, while Dutch Comedi- an and Fair Deceiver went to the t hot favorites. One of the largest crowds of the meeting witnessed the sport to-day.

C. 292, ASTOUNDED THE WORLD BY CURING: DISEASE WITH MEDICINES. ROME TERMED HIM THE GOD OF THE HEALING ART. Prof. Weltmer of Nevada, Healer of ‘This Age, Astounds the World by His Remarkable Cures Without the Aid of Drugs or the Surgeon’s Knife. Mo., the Great Magnetic THE MEDICAL PROFESSION IN AN UPROAR—THE SECRET OF THIS METHOD REVEALED TO ALL. The phenomenal cures made by Prof. S. one placing A. Weltmer of Nevada, Mo., have been so astounding and wonderful as to attract the attention of scientists and physicians throughout the world. An eminent physi- clan who has won the esteem of the medi- cal profession by his history of Aescula- pius, the healing god, known in B. C. 292, says: -While it is true that we are told that Aesculapius became so efficient in the healing art that he actually succeeded 60 far as to restore the dead to life, and in this way offended Pluto who complained to Jove of the innovation and Jove slew Aes- culapius by a flash of lightning, still in making my researches up to the present day, I can say without hesitation that Prof. S. A. Weltmern the great Nevada, Mo., Magnetic Healer, has done more for sclence and humanity than did Aesculaplus, for this wonderful man has followed the precept of the Living Christ. In this I do not mean to be sacrilegious, but to em- phasize my statement by saying that the Great Nevada (Mo.) Scientist is following tn the path made by Him who was born at Bethlehem and healing without drugs or the surgeon’s knife. Again Prof. 8S. A. Weltmer is more generous to humanity than was Aesculapius, for the latter had a few followers, known as the Asclepiades, who were bound by an oath not to divulge the secret of the healing art, while any- themselvea in communication with Prof. 8. Weltmer can receive in- structions from him, for he is most anxious to teach hs art to others that the great method, of which he is the founder, may live and continue to bring the afflicted to health and happiness even after he has passed to the great majority. Thousands of testimonials from worthy people in every walk of life are In possession of the Ameri- can School of Magnetic Healing of Ne- vada, Mo., and the seeming miracles per- formed by this great scientist are so won- derful that they would be doubted by the skeptical ones if the proofs were not so = tive. A few instances of which we men- tion: Hon. Press Irons, Mayor of Nevada, was afflicted with kidney and bladder troubles for ten years and could find no relief 4n the usual remedies. In one week he was com- pletely restored by Prof, Wetimer. Mr. John 8. Small, Colfax, IL, was deaf in his left ear for seven years; could not hear a watch tick when placed against his ear, Was permanently cured ip three days by Professor Weltmer. Mr, L. W. Raina, a wealthy lumberman of Hornbeak, Tenn., suffered constantly with kidney trouble for ® vears; also with cometipation and prostatic troubles. Exhausted the best med- ical skill, but no relief. He fortunately heard of Professor Weltmer, and was soon restored to perfect health, and now says this treatment will cure anybody, Mra. M. E. Hawkins, Loulsburg, Kan., was afflicted twenty years with prolapeus and enlarge- ment of the womb, indigestion and perpet- ual headache. Tried everything that of- fered relief and gave up in despair. Heard of Professor Weltmer, took his treatment a and was permanently restored to ealth. Professor Weitmer also possesses the re- gan, was one of the pioneer newspaper women of the world.

Miss Midy Morgan left her fortune to her sister, Miss Jane Morgan, a colorist and sculpter of note, who had studied undcr the most eminent teachers in a number of European centers.

WANT TAX RAISED TO 10 CENTS An Organization Among Members cf Congress From Rural Districts May Be Formed. WASHINGTON, May 20.—Steps are being taken to effect an organization members of Congress from agricultural] dis- tricts for the enactment of a law next winter raising the tax on oleomargarine from 2 cents a pound to 10 cents a ‘pound. this move is to tax oleo- margarine out of existence by making its production unprofitable. The dairy inter- ests have worked up a strong sentiment among farmers against substitute butters of all kinds and Congressmen are feeling The campaign in their behalf is being organized by mem- experience in national legislation. They have gone about their work stealthily and it has not been their purpose to let out the facts before the introduction of a tax- | ! the form of a bill, but tt has been impossible to keep the matter secret. They had no desire to invite the early opposition of the powerful ipteresis hind the manufacture of oleo- margarine, but it is prebable that before this producers have received an inkling of what is going on and wail be found ready to make their fight when the time comes. Official statistics In the Department of Agriculture and in the Internal Revenue Office furnish some interesting informa- tlon as to the relative importance of the dairy and oleomargarine interests. The sone $f 18) gave the production of but- erin the United States as 1,205.000.0@00 pounds annually. The census of 1889 made the total 97, - 000,000 pounds. If the increase during the resent decade has been as great relatively as during the one preceding the product.on at this time should be about rannum. The estimates of the partment of Agriculture are very much among | Protestant Infirmary. 1, 800,000,000 i a ——— ae e+ ae below those of the census enumerators, and provalty more nearly correct. Maj. Henry “. Alvord, Chief of the Dairy Division of the department, estimates the production this year at 1,450,000.000 pounds, only a minute fraction of which goes abroad. The production of oleomargarine, as shown by the returns at the office of the Commiseioner of Internal Revenue, aggre- sated 55,388,000 pounds during the fiscal year ending June 30, 898. That was an increase of 12,854,000 pounds over the year preceding. The production for the first nine months of the.current fiscal year was 63,000,000 pounds, indicating a total produc- tion for the year ending June ® next, of about 8,000,000 pounds. The dairy butter men say that the substitute butter, which they claim costs less than the current mar- ket price of lard, comes in direct compe- tition with them and drags down the price of the genuine article to unremunerative figures. They will not be content, therefore, with anything less ¢han the entire destruc- tion of the business of producing oleomar- Garine, or, failing in that, to put a tax on it which w']l make competition more even and which will at the same time yield the Government largely increased revenue.

Griggs, who was a corporation attorney, member of the House of Assembly, then of the Fenate, next Governor of New Jersey, 15 now in acceptance of a fee from the people o@ the United States as their attorney and the chief legal adviser of the executive branch of the Féderal Government. \When in December, 1897, he resigned 45 Governor cf New Jersey to accept Mr. MeKinley’s offer ofa place in the Cabinet as Attorney-General to succeed McKenna, elevated to the bench of the Supreme Court of the United States, many thoughtful ob- eervers of political tendencies had already declared that the great issue in the next Presidential campaign would not be elilver or protection, but trusts. Since then -this question’ has been forced into unexpected prominence by the growth within a twelve- month in the number and capitalization of trusts of wonderful variety and scope, far exceeding thelr devélopment in any pre- vious two years and nearly equaling the total of all time since trusts were invented. Naturally the number of political proph- ets who eee in the problem presented by the relation of the trusts to the people a natiénal issue of the first magnitude has grown correspondingly, or in greater pro- portion; and therefore a desire has arisen for definite information concerning the man into whose hands the President has placed the case of ‘‘The People vs. the Trusts,” and his reason for retaining John W. Griggs rather than any of the other sev- eral hundred lawyers whose claims for the position were urged by friends. At first thought it occurs that as New Jersey is the home of trusts, the Presi- dent turned to that State for a legal ad- viser; for there he might reasonably look for a lawyer who had made more than a casual atudy of the question, and might even hop» to find one who had distin- guished himself by a-.sturdy opposition to trusts on their own chosen grounds. John W. Griggs was born in Newton, Sus- eex County, N. J., in 1849; was graduated from Lafayette College in 1868, worked in a humble position as a railway employe while studying law, and in 1871 was ad- mitted to the bar, first associating him- self with Robert Hamilton, and after- ward with Socrates Tuttle in Paterson, which city has since been his home, He was successful in his profession from the beginning. He made special effort to obtain a share of the remunerative practice afforded by the large corporate business in the courts, and was before many years attorney for the New York, Susquehanna & Western Railway; the Erie, the New York & New Jersey, the Normhern of New Jersey, the Paterson Railway Co., the # Paterson Elestric Light Co., the East Jersey Water Co. (Hobart’s), the Consolidated Gas Co. of Newark, and general counsel of the Delaware, Lackawanna & Western Rail- way Co. He became stockholder in a num- ber of the companies classed in New Jer- sey as ‘‘Hobart'’s interests’’ and president of the Paterson National aBnk and of the Paterson Safe Deposit and Trust Co. Thus strongly allied with many of the State's strongest corporate interests, his activity in politics followed naturally and comfortably. He did not have to go through a schooling of defeat to learn the game, for Hobart had a high-geared and well- oiljed machine in operation at al) times, and ft was at the young attorney's” service when, at the age of 26, he first ran for the Assembly. He was elected by a very nar- row margin, but that was not even a mat- ter of regtet. He was returned to the same branch of the Legislature the next year, bch tae obey counsel to the Boar of Chosen Freeholders in 1878, next served a couple of terms in the City Council, an@ in was elected State Senator, and Pe- mained in that distinguished body five ses- sions, becoming its President in 1886. In No- vember, 1895, he was elected Governor, and two years later was appointed Attorney- General. In 1883, Mr. Griggs, then being a mem- ber of the Senate, Gov. Ludlow asked leg- islative attention to the old and growing evil of tax evasion by the railways.’ At that time the railways In New Jersey paid mo tax whatever to cities or towns on any character of property. and this imposed an ever increasing burden on the people, who Were of course called upon each year to make up the vast amount which the rall- ways should, but could not be made to pay. The demand was for equal taxation, and it came from all over the State with such insistence and emphasis that it did not seem possible to longer let it go unheeded. But they who thought thus did not include Griggs n their calculations. The House of As'@mbly pasted a biil tn accordance with the Governor's sugges- tions, and it went to the Senate, where, the hopeful predicted, it would promptly pass as it had in the Assembly, without a negative vote. Then Senator Griggs came forward. Open opposition would have passed the bill instanter, but Mr. Griggs was not there to oppose. Oh, no! on the contrary he wished to pass even a stronger bill. The one from the Assembly was all right tn in- tention, no doubt, but it had been haatily drawn and pesees, and if the Senate would | give him a little time he would draw a tet- ter bill. The very first action taken by the next Legislature suggested that, instead of hav- ing weakened his grip of affairs at Tren- ton, he had strengthened it by his per- formance At the very beginning of the session of 186 the Legislature created a committee to consider the question of equal] taxation, and of this committee Senator Griggs was made Chairman. Chairman Griggs eeemed to have an en- tirely new problem on his hands. He kept his committee considering the question for such @ length of time that it looked as if he had never before heard of the question of equal taxation. But the new Governor, Abbett, was in earnest in the matter, and one morning he had introduced into the Assembiy ar equal-tax bill. Thia forced the hand of Griggs, and his joint committee prepared a report and bill Which were sent to the Assembly, Chair- man Grig signing the report, recom- Mending the passage of the bill, which a wn as House Bill No. 313, This le enacting that ra.l- “a at the ] i i ee This Is the Man Into Whose Hands the Administration Has Placed the Case of the People vs. the Monster Combines. mpen | It showed how well Griggs could solve the question if he wanted to. But all that he wantéd to do was to get the bill through the House and into the Senate, where he could control it. It was promptly passed by the Assembly and went to the Senate, where it was referred to a Special Comm.t- tee on Taxation of Corporations. It is prob- ably needless to relate that Senator GrigKks was Chairman of that special committee. The taxes of corporations was his spe- Claity in legislation and law. The report favoring the bill and signed by Griggs had been made on Feb. 17, but it was not until March 2% that the bill emerged from Griggs’ special Senate com- mittee, and then it had these amendments: 1, Exempting absolutely the depot build- ings, the roadbed, waterways, rai:s and all personal property of railroad and canal companies from any form of city or county taxation 2. Limiting the rate of local taxation on the other real estate owned by railroad and canal corporations to 1 per cent, no mat- ter what tax was imposed on the property iof individuals. These amendments prevailed, pui not without a struggle. Griggs first killed a proposed amendment increasing the limit of municipal rates on railroad and canal property not wholly exempt, to 1% per cent. hen the bill went into conference— Griggs presiding—and the Assembly con- ferrees were induced to agree to the Senate amendments oF the threat that they could take what Griggs offered or get nothing. So the famous New Jersey “equal” tax law was passed. It fs worth while going into some details to show how much of a favor Attorney- General Griggs did to the railway corpora- tions in that sesaion of 18%. The figures following are taken from a statement pre- pared and signed by an official who served two years as a member of the New Jersey State Board of Assessors, and who was therefore qualified to speak as an expert. At the time of the passage of the Griggs exemption law the assessed valuation of? the roadbeds of the railroads and water- ways of the canals of New Jersey was more than $83,000,000. These were exempted by the Griggs amendment, and thus the owning corporations were saved an annual tax of $830,000. The exemption of their per- nage veaie wition aa the amount given e corp )ratione Griggs to $1,000,000 annually. r ” — The limitation of 1 per cent on the com- paratively small amount which Griggs per- mitted the State to assess and tax his clients was then worth to them in the cities of Camden, Trenton, Elizabeth, South Amboy, Perth Amboy, Newark and Jersey City alone a further $350,000 annually. Killing the amendment to increase the rate on unexempted pro erty saved the om even at that time, about iV, ° To go forward a few years: During his term as Governor, Griggs signed the no- torious “Extension bill,", which wae promptly declared uneonstitutional] by the courts, Among other things it provided = an extension of the term of the Mayor of Jersey City, a favor it was al Mayor claimed for having put Tc h water contract under the Griggs bill. Readers will recall the scandal growing out of the notorious New Jersey race track bill of 1887. Attorney-General Griggs has asserted that he opposed, or was op- posed to—the distinction is fine—that bit which permitted every kind of race track gambling and pool room iniquity. The official records of the session do not bear out his assertion. On the day that bill passed—February 16, 1887—there were but five bills passed by the Senate. The race track bill was the second of the five and Senator Griggs ts officially reported as present and voting on the first, third fourth and fifth, but on the second he dodged. That is the kind of “opposition” which has been known to yield as much profit as direct aid. But in the discussion rowing out of the scandals follow.ng a. bill during which Mr. Griggs expressed his “OD. position’”’ to the race track combine, a rominent lawyer of Jersey City, who ac- nowledged that he was retained by the race track combine, charged that Senator Griggs was also retained and received hie fee from the same purse which prov.ded the fee for the lawyer making the charges. This story was published prominently in the World when Griggs was running for Governor and was not denied. As a legisiator Mr. Griggs was as con- sistently opposed to labor interests as he was in favor of corporate interests. This the official records display. In the session of 1887 a bill was passed providing that 12 consecutive hours should constitute a day's labor in the operation of street surface railroads. This bill was held up by the Committee on Labor and Industries (Griggs, Chairman) until three days before adjourn- ment. This was considered a safe period but the demand for its passage was unex- pectediy great and it Was passed without the vote of Griggs. In the same session committee killed a bill making wages a referred debt in insolvency cases. The ill has since been enacted, and proved of reat value to wage workers. He also illed a Saturday half-holiday bil] in the same session. This was a busy year with him in his fight against labor, for he was called upon to fight the Labor Day bill, since become a law in nearly every State of the Union. Senator Griggs in When Griggs was Governor of New Jer- sey during the session of 1897, a bill was passed which is sometimes spoken of as the “trust-coddling law."" It is an extraor- dinary measure, designed to give all the comforts of home to the trusts, which it plainly was designed to attract to New Jersey. It stops any action in any court of the State against any stockholder, officer or director of any domestic or foreign cor- poration to enforce any statutory personal HMability, or for any debt, default or oblil- gation of such corporations, whether such statutory personal Hability be deemed penal or constitutional. Here is the iegisiative record of this bill: Introduced in the Senate at 8:30 p. m. on March 30, 1897; passed both houses and signed by Gov, Griggs at 2:0 p. m. on March 31, 1897. This carries Mr. Griggs’ public career up to the time when his usefulness to the McKinley Cabinet was pemeee out by his friend, the Vice President, and he was made *Attorney General of the United Biates. A trust was to be formed in a gigantic manner—a trust or syndicate to obtain the interests of the United States in the Kan- eas Pacific Railway Company for a sum amounting to $6.598.273 leas than the com- pany the United States.

War Department issued last December vested in Secretary Alger supreme au- thority In the matter of exclusive Cuban franchises. This was so monstrous that it drew quick fire from Congress, which passed a reso- lution providing that no franchises should be granted in Cuba by Alger. But prompt as Congress was to act, Griggs was speed- fer with his opinion, for at the first public outburst against the order the Attorney- General rushed to the aesistance o@ the Secretary of War, crying aloud: ‘Tam surprised that any one should crit- icise this order. You must remember that this action is a military expedient. To what other officers should this power of con- trolling franchises be granted? When I was consulted in this matter I recommended that Secretary Alger be given this power. The Commercial Cable Co. applied to the War Department for the privilege of land- ing a cable in Cuba and Porto Rico. The matter was referred to Griggs. Whereupon he advised against the privilege, “object'on ney General having been made by the Western Union Telegraph Co., lessee of the International Cable Co., which claims exclusive grant under t*° concession from Spain in 1867.

Meetings at Which the Movement Was Begun and Subscriptions Now to Be Received. Coincident with the erection of a new City Hospital it is extremely probable that St. Louis’ list of such institutions will be enriched by the addition of a Jewish hos- pital. This is the goal towards which a group of prominent women of this denomination are working, and from present appearances they will be easily successful. For some time past the idea has been discussed until at last some few of the la- dies, tired of tthe inactivity in the matter, took {it upon themselves to demonstrate their ability to put the plan into execution any carry it to a successful issue. A pre- liminary meeting was held, methods of work talked over and active measures be- gun. This was two weeks ago, since which time another meeting was called, at which reports of progress were made that were highly gratifying to those interested. The women who have devoted their ener- gies to the accomplishment of this aim are numerous. Those, however, who have taken the greater share of the burden upon their shoulders are Mesdames Jullus Weil, Punch, Kahn, Greengarten, 'M. Sale and the Misses Hellman and Cohn. Mrs, Weil pre- sided at the past two gatherings and has originated the methods whereby the pro- posed institution will derive its revenues. She, in company with the other ladies, is at present engaged in securing the names of all of those persons who are willing to pay % annually towards the support of the hospital, Should a sufficient number of subscribers be obtained, of which there is no doubt, work will be started at once. Thus far, in the brief time since the lists have ‘been opened, over 600 have signified their willingness to contribute. It is ex- pected that 3500 or 4000 names will be signed when the blanks for.the purpose are dis- alga among the business houses of the city. This number, each paying the stated yearly sum, would be enough to defray the expenses of maintaining a hospital, as it is not the intention of the promoters to erect a building. One, already standing, suitable for the purpose, will be rented. The hospital will not, of course, be strict- ly sectarian in its character. It will be along similar lines to those on which the Protestant, Baptist, Methodist and other in- stitutions are conducted. It is, to the ortho- dox Jew, an absolute necessity, for it will provide him when sick with proper—accord- ing to his religious rules—food and drink, and will surround him with those essentials that his faith requires when he closes his eyes in death. The lack of these is one of the chief reasons why so very few Jewish 1 er are ever found in the City Hos- pital, Assurances have been received from sev- eral wealthy gentlemen that they will give handsomely to the undertaking and some have suggested the advisability of a sink- ing fund which, when large enough, will provide for the erection of a building. At the next meeting, over which Mrs. We'l will preside, reports of those willing to subscribe will be submitted and then the actual soliciting will be begun. The meet- ing will probably be held next Sunday afternoon or evening, so that the gentlemen may attend, in the assembly rooms of the Young Men's Hebrew Association, Twenty- seventh and Locust streets. NEW FAST AFTERNOON TRAIN, Via the Iron Mountain Route. No. 51 now leaves St. Louis at 2:21 p. m., instead of 10 a. m., reaching Texarkana for breakfast the next morning, making direct connections for’all points in Texas, with sleeping cars and reclining chair cars. One of the features of this train is the delight- ful daylight ride along the cliffs of the Mis- sissipp! and through the beautiful Arcadia Valley and Ozark Mountains. THE GROOM WAS UNDER AGE. Why Anton Holie and Miss Annie Semrau Were Not Married. Anton Holie of Evansvillé, Ind., and Miss Annie Semrau of Belleville were yesterday refused a license to marry, because Holle said he was only years old. The couple were much dejected at the re- fusal. They said their inability to obtain a license would cause them great incon- venience, as they had already made ar- rangements to leave to-night for a tour of the East. Hollie sent several] telegrams to his father, requesting him to send his consent by wire, but he was not rewarded with an answer. "They Never Fail. Almost never.

Mrs. McVean’s Physician Says She Has Entirely Recovered and Will Not Be at All Disfigured. Mrs. Florence M. McVean, her mother, Mrs. Mary Megraw, and sister, Miss Mollie Megraw, no longer occupy the res‘dence at 4015 Cook avenue. According to the'r former neighbors, they have left St. Louis permanently and will hereafter reside in the Hast. The Megraw family’s star boarder, Hon. William P. Bentley, is now stopping at the West End Hotel, Vandeventer and Bell ave- nues. The Megraws also stayed there a few days last week, but the hotel clerk says he hasn't the stightest idea where they have gone. ‘“‘Where he was asked, “Oh,”’ he replied “Judge Bentley attends to that. He knows their address and for- wards the'r letters to them.” — Mr. Bentley was found at his office in the Burlington building. Judge Thomas Peabody of the First District Police Court was also present. Mr. Bentley was asked if he knew whither the Megraw family had journeyed. “No.” he said, “I don’t know a thing about them. Now, really, what I’m telling you is straight. But it’s a fact they are in the country and I can’t say when they'll be back.”’ The acid throwing incident, of which Mrs, Florence M. McVean was the victim, at the Megraw residence a few months ago is still fresh in the public memory. The culprit was never arrested, although suspicion was directed to a few persons. Dr. G. C. Lyda, who attended Mrs. Mc- Vean, says ehe has entirely recovered and there is now scarcely a trace of the burns inflicted by the carbolic acid. “She will not be in ‘the least disfigured,”’ said the doctor, ‘“‘though we at first sup- posed her beauty would be marred for life. ‘‘Mrs. McVean and the others have, I understand, left the city for good. They disliked the unpleasant notoriety which the case @rought them and thought a change of ecene would be the proper thing.’”’ “N TOUR THROUGH IRELAND.” Rev. Father Sheehy To-Night at Four- teenth Street Theater. Father Sheehy’s delightful entertainment, “A Tour Throught Ireland,”’ will be re- peated this Sunday night at the Four- teenth Street Theater, with entirely new features of attraction. Preliminary to the display of the splendid views of Ireland, a number of beautiful and realistic colored pictures of the recent naval victories at Manila and San Juan will be thrown on -_— will you send their mail?’ RBV FATHER the canvas, and in this connection such ob- jects will be displayed as the Maine before and after the explosion: the explosion; Dewey on the bridge of Olympia; the blowing up of the Merrimac and Hobson's escape; the destruction of Cervera's fleet; charge of El «Caney: rally ‘round the flag, etc. views, entirely different from those shown last Sunday night, will be an added feature. The musica] programme has been also completely recast. Mr. William J. Baker will sing “Come Back to Erin, O'Donnel! a Boo,” etc.; Mr. Alfred Baker, “The SHPEHY. ee — Minstrel Boy” and ‘The Boys of Vinegar | dancin Hill.” Mr. S. Martin Killarney and Miss Cushing of Chicago will render two songs in Irish—‘‘Let Erin Remember” and “Aileen Aroon;"’ Mr. Thomas Kiely, “The Croppy Boy.” This continuation insures a highly de- lightful and attractive entertainment, and judging from the enthusiasm produced by Father Sheehy’s programme last Sunday night, it is @eafe to forecast that an au- dience equally enthusiastic and delighted will crowd the Fourteenth Street Theater to-night.

Reached British Terri- tory and Receiving Assistance Made Their Way to the Re- public of Venezuela Special Correspondence of the Post-Dispatch. PORT OF SPATN, Trinidad, West Indies, May 10.—It is known that a party of politl- ‘eal convicts escaped from the penal esettie- ‘ment of St. Jean, on the Maron! River, French Guiana. Knowing that they would be arrested and sent back if they simply crossed the river into Dutch Gulana, they, meade a dash, seized a large dugout an ef the stream. The open sea and the ter- ritory of Venewuela far to the west of the mouth of the Orinoco, was thein objective point. A storm swept the meager supply of pro- visions they had captured with the boat leverboard, and they were left desolate. For three days and three nights, buffeted ‘By wind and waves, scorched during the day by the rays of a tropical sun and suf- fering the pangs of hunger and thirst, the ‘occupants of the boat, working by relays, ‘kept the head of their craft northward and westward, and were rewarded at the end 'of that time in sighting the coast of British Guiana. They ran into the Benbice River, where their wretched appearance and woe- ful condition appealed more loudly than wo could to the sympathy of the Brit- ‘ish colonists, Some of the escaping men ad suffered terribly from the exposure. hey were all scorched or blistered, but one man in particular had so suffered from the flerce rays of the a ony eun that his ears were amputated. eir bodily wants edily supplied, but as British Guiana had never offered a safe retreat for French refugees, their stoppage in the ome River was not unnecessarily pro- onged. With a fresh supply of provisions and a “Godspeed” from the natives, the escaping convicts again set out for sea, and the fol- lowing day, suffering from exhaustion, they neg their frail craft into the Demerara iver and arrived at Georgetown, the capi- tal of British Guiana. For many years past it has been the custom of the French au- thorities at Cayenne to communicate with the British Guianan constabulary regard- Ing and fully describing such convicts ag might escape from any of the penal set- tlements of French Guiana, and if they were discovered in British Guiana they were arrested and again deported to French Guiana on the requisition of the Governor of Cayenne. > For some unexplained reason this prac- ice of the French authorities reporting Biich escapes and the publication by them of “‘deseriptive sheets’’ have been aban- doned for sorne time back. In point of fact, since the Court of Cassation took u the Dreyfus case, the former practice tell into disuse. The reasor * wot plain, for It {is known pat * _.us is imprisoned on a island by saself, with nothi but a guard, and there is no chance of their succeeding in escaping. Accordingly, when the escaping convicts arrived at Georgetown, the authorities of the British Guiana declined to take any steps to arrest them, as they had not re- celved any complaint, report or descriptive sheet with regard to them from the au- thorities of French Guiana. The refugees were thus allowed to remain unmolested, to recruit their health. The men talked freely with the best peo- ple of Georgetown. One stated that he was a Boulangist and had been exiled seven years ago by Presi(@nt Carnot) for a po- itical offense; he had been a professor of rhetoric in a.normal school tn Paris and was 37 years old. Another said he was an optician, 34 years of age, and another an artist, aged 22. . After reeting for two days and being anx- fous to place as great a distance as possi- ble between themselves and the authori- ties of French Guiana, the refugees set out with a fresh supply of provisions in a northwesterly direction, their intention being to land on the Venezuelan side of the Orinoco River, where they can take u their abode without the fear of Frenc INJURIES ==WERE — FATAL &.

KANSAS OITY, Mo., May 2.—Mies Mar- tha @mith, who has been here for the past week settling up her $25,000 judgment against Dr. H. 8. Lowry, seid in an inter- view: “In a few days I shall return to Calffor- nia and at San Francisco next fall I in- tend to begin the study of medicine at the University of California. As a profession it is better than dentistry and I never did like the mechanical end of dentistry, any- how. ‘No, Dr. Lowry hag not called upon me since I have been in the city this time. The rumors of the possibility of a marriage be- tween us after all that has happened are distressing to me, I really don’t expect to eee him again. Our meeting before I left Kansas City and after the trial was just an accident. I saw him on West Tenth street near the Coates House It is a side street and we were probably both there to avoid publicity. The weather was 6o cojd and he wanted to taik to me about the busi- ness feature of the case merely and we talked in the parlor of the hotel awhile. Please don’t pay any attention to any more ridiculous stories of us. “Our settlement of the judgment was not a compromise. Of course he was left his personal property, but if he had gone into bankruptcy as threatened I should hardly have realized any more than I now shall. 1 believe in being merciful to the vanquished.”’ Miss Smith is looking better than during the trial, when ehe was under a nervous strain, due principally to her efforts not to look at Lowry during the trial. This was in accordance with a promise to her lawyer, ‘Mr. Beebe. Her favorite color is blue, and she wes attired in a neat fitting costume of that shade. Since she went to California two months ago, ehe hastreceived a half bushel of letters, containing advice and numerous offers of marriage. One manufacturer of Indianapolis wrote her that in the event of her marriage to Dr. Lowry or anyone else he would send her a kitchen cabinet if she would only acknowledge the receip: of it in a letter. ‘‘No,”’ said Miss Smith, “I have received no offers to go on the stage.’’ (Mise Smith has not yet returned the dia- mond engagement ring. SAN FRANCISCO RACING SBASON. It Closed Saturday and Will Not Be Resumed Until November. SAN FRANCISCO, Cal., May 2%.—The racing season, which has continued unin- terrupted in San Francisco since November last, closed with to-day’s meeting of the Pacific Coast Jockey Club at the Oakland race track. The exodus of Eastern stables, together with such California strings which will invade the different Eastern tracks, will begin at once, and it is ex ted by the end of the coming week the local fleid will be barren of racing timber. The two associations say that the meeting just closed has been the most prosperous in the history of California racing, notwith- standing the long siege of racing and the closing of the Ingleside track by the Board of Supervisors in the city. The attendance at the closing day has equaled, if not ex- ceeded, that of the earlier period, as fully two-thirds of the prominent Eastern sta- bles remained until the last. The last race on the card to-day was prolific of sensational developments, as La Goleta of the Baldwin string was the ex- treme outsider and who went to the post practically unbacked, won in a romp, while tosinante, backed from 4 to 1 to i to 2, and off the boards in nearly every book, finished last. It is estimated that the books won many thousands of dollars by La Goleta’s vic- tory, as Rosinante, Daisy F. and May W. carried a world of money, particularly the former, who was played for a huge kill- ing.

The only motive actuating this was the ever-present desire among the Eike, more so than among any other body, of fostering fraternity and g00d fellowship and to talk over the ap- proaching event, which quite overshadows everything else im the mind of every loyal brother. Without any unnecessary and tiresome formality the gentlemen present repaired to the banquet hall and at a signal from Exalted Ruler Aloe took their: seats at the tables.

FRANCIS WILL RETURN TO-DAY FROM THE EAST. Active Measures Will Be Taken To- Morrow to Close Up the Sub- scription Lists and An- nounce Results, During the past week demands have been ‘made almost constantly for exact informa- ‘tion as to the status of the $5,000,000 World's Fair fun. In order to be able to furnish this information accurately, Secretary James Cox of the Executive Committee made a special effort to have everything posted up closely and called over. He fin- ished checking off the blanks yesterday af- ternoon, and gave out the statement below, the accuracy of which he vouches for. So far as the total, $3.061,830, is concerned, it is made up, Mr. Cox explains, of actual Signatures only, with the exception of about SSP 000 .0f announced subscriptions, which are undoubtedly bona fide, but for which formal signatures have not been obtained, owing in a majority of instances to ab- sence from the city. The total of $1,394,500 -is made up of conservative estimates of amounts the chairmen of different collect- ing committees rely upon be!tng able to add to the total of signatures already in their possession or filed at the office of the Ex- ecutive Committee.

Wells, in command of the United States Naval Recruiting Station at Chicago, has received instructions from Commander John M. Hawley for a novel bit of recruiting. The instructions are to se- cure 75 men between the ages of 18 and 2 years and a band of 16 pieces, all the men to come from the States of this section. This is the first time that a naval band has ever been organized at the Chicago re- cruiting station. Commander Hawley an- nounces that the men and musicians are to be put abd@urd the Hartford, now at the Mare Island Navy Yard in California, and that the ship will be taken around the Horn and up the Atlantic coast by easy stages, making frequent stops at interesting ports en route. The Commander’s intention is to ES ¢ EEE A GREAT TRUTH. All organized living things, whether be- longing to the animal or vegetable king- dom contain within themselves the germs of death and decay. Germs of disease are often generated within the human system through imper- fect digestion of food, producing various poisons which scientists have denominated plomaines. A stomach weakened by abuse gorged with over eating or over burdened with hot bread, too rich or greasy foods or those too highly seasoned, becomes weak- ened and fails to thoroughly digest the food. A heavy, sodden mass is accumu- lated in the stomach to ferment as the first step in its decay, giving off foul gasses to distend the stomach, and poison the blood, until it becomes thin, weak and lacking in the red corpuscles so necessary to perfect health. The over distended stomach presses upon the heart, and the latter organ is also dis- turbed through sympathy, the same system of nerves being distributed to both organs. Thus palpitation and irregular action of the heart arith its attendant shortness of breath, result, and in time, disease of the heart itself is established. The gases and other poisons generated from undigested, fermenting and decay- ing food in the stomach becloud the brain, causing headaches, and pain in the eyes. "poten absorbed into the blood these poi- sons reach every part and organ of the sys- tem. The kidneys are thereby poisoned, causing Bright's disease and diabetes. Fil- tering through the skin, troublesome skin diseases often show themselves. Every organ and every nerve, rant on yon | as they do for their nourishment an renewal upon the stomach, weak digestion shows itself not alone in loss of appetite and flesh, but also in nervousness, debility, bad complexion and many other derange- ments. Dr. Pierce’s Golden Medical Discovery tones and regulates the stomach ; stimu- lates the digestive juices ; invigorates the torpid liver ; promotes intestinal strength; clears bilious poisons and diseased germs out of the circulation; gives the blood- making glands keen assimilative power, and furnishes Nature with the fresh, abund- ant nutrition out of which she manufac- tures firm flesh. strong muscles, clear skin, healthy lung tissue and nerve-fiber, and gives sound, enduring, active energy to the | whole system. rd make the cruise pleasant for the men and of such length that the Western farmers ‘and mechanics who start from San Francis- co will be experienced sailors by the time they reach New York. Social Democratic Party. The different ward branches of the So- cial Democratic party in St, Louis will hold a joint meeting Sunday afternoon at Aschenbrodel Hall, 4 Market street, to consider a plan to revive the organization in this city and to prepare for a vigorous ‘campaign to be waged from now until 1900. The meeting will also choose delegates to attend the National Conference of the party in Chicago, July 7. Funeral of J. R. S. Tanquary. The funeral of John R. S. Tanquary, who died Friday night at his residence, 6957 Marquette avenue, after a long illness, will be held Monday morning at Bethel Ceme- tery. A memorial service will be held this ‘afternoon at Harlem Place, M. E. Church, | Tyler and Jamison avenues. Mr. Tanquary was an employe of the R. G. Dun Mercan- itile Agency. He was a faithful and effi- | eclent worker and stood in high favor with | his employers. He was 41 years old. He leaves a widow and two children to mourn The Cruel Knife! It is absolutely useless to expect a surgical operation to cure cancer, or any other blood disease. The cruelty of such treatment is illustrated in the alarming number of deaths which re- sult from it. The disease is in the blood, and hence can not be cut out. Nine times out of ten the surgeon’s knife only hastens death. a re — My son had a most malignant Cancer, for which the doctors said an operation was the only hope. The oper- ation was a severe one, as it was neces- Bary to cut down to the jawboneand scrape it. Before a great while the Can- cer returned, and be- an to grow rapidly. ie gave him many emedies without re- lef, and paeliy. upon the advice ofa began to improve. After twenty bottles had been taken. the Cancer disappeared entirely, and he wascuired.

Mayor Ziegenhein Will Have the Nec- essary Appropriation Made of the Accumulated Fund, It is now certain that St. Louis will have a new City Hospital. Ground will be broken for it within a month and its construction | will be pushed as rapidly as possible, It 'is probable that before the summer Is ended city patients will be occupying a pavilion of the new building. Comptroller Sturgeon has certified to Mayor Ziegenhein that there is $202,406.02 in the fund set apart for building a new City Hospital. The Mayor has directed that this sum be incorporated in the general appro- priation bill, which will be sent to the Mu- nicipal Assembly soon.: When this bill is passed the contracts will be let. The City Hall Commission submitted plans for the new hospital three years ago. The pavilion system is recommended and will be followed because it will permit of one pavilion at a time being completed and made ready for use. The commission has also made recommendations for the admin-« istration of the hospital. The taxpayers of St. Louis, as well as the homeless and friendless sick, should thank the Post-Dispatch for the new City Hospi- tal. The old City Hospital would probably have remained for some years to disgrace the city if it had not exposed the conditions which prevailed there. It sent one of its reporters,who became a patient for 36 hours without the knowledge of the hospital au- thorities. His plain, unvarnished story of what he saw and experienced in one of the hospital wards caused a storm of indigna- tion to sweep towards the City Hall. Mayor Aiegenhein turned a deaf ear to public con- demnation for several months, putting off the demands of the people with a re quest to wait for the Mullanphy Fund. But the Post-Dispatch was obdurate and persistent- ly pointed out the folly of such a course. When at last Mayor Ziegenhein saw that the people were determined to have the new City Hospital he made preparations to accede to their demands. CENTRAL BELLAMY CLUB. ? Lecture Monday Night by Rabbi Har- ; rison on the Trusts. The meetings of the Central Bellamy Club of St. Louis, held at the North Broadway Social Settlement Hall, 1223 North Broad- way, are creating enthusiastic interest In public ownership as a remedy for the evils resulting from the enormous trusts and combines that are now entering into and monopolizing every~field of useful and prof- itable employment, ruining small manufac. turers and dealers, closing every avenue of wealth and opportunity for individual ad- vancement, and throwing thousands of peo- ple out of employment. The subject “Trusts, Their Use and Abuse,’” will be handled ably by the wel)- known thinker and speaker, Rev. Leon Harrison of Temple Israel, Monday even- ing, May 22. On this occasion Mr. Louls D. Goodman whl read a poem by Mrs. Charlotte Per- kins Stetson entitled “Heroism,” and Mr H. M. Williams will recite Sam Walter Foss’ poem, ““The Dialogue of the Spirits.’ After the lecture questions pertaining to the subject discussed will be answered, and then three minutes will be given any speak. ers who may desire to give their ideas on the subject. Monday, May 29, Mr. N. O. Nelson will ad. dress the club on “The Ideal Village of Ruskin,” where the ideas of Bellamy are applied. hese leciures are all free, and a cordial + hat is extended to the general pub- c. WILL STRIKE THE BANKERS. Bank Directory Publishers Are Going Into a Combine. The newest thing in the way of trusts Is acombine of the bank directory publishers. These firms supply the banks with ratit.es and credit marks, just as commercial agen- cies act for the mercantile world. They are essential to the banking interests and are in a position to dictate terms. There are but six of these corporations fn the United States, two of which are iocated in St. Louis. All are going into the combine. They are Rand-McNally, Chicago: Bai k- ers’ Encyclopedia, Chicago Bankers’ Regis- ter, Chicago; Bradford, Rhodes & “o.. New York, and Gast-Paul and the United States Banking, Real Estate and Law Directory of St. Louis. JOINT MEMORIAL SERVICE. Hebrews Will Do Honor to the La Baron and Baroness De Hirsch.

WHEAT GROWING ON ‘CHANGE Quite a Stalk Has Sprung From »« Grain Thrown Carelessly Near the Fountain. Wheat is growing on the floor of the Merchants’ Exchange. Many millions of bushels of wheat are handled there every year—on paper—yet that is the last place one would go to look for the growing plant which feeds the world. Usually the only wheat one sees on “change is in little circular tin pans tn the sample corner. It is a favorite pastime of brokers to throw this wheat about the hall broadcast, not with a view to planting it, but just for the fun of seeing other brokers dig the grains out of their ears and eyes and hair. It so happened that ene of these grains found a better mission than making per- sons uncomfortable. It lodged in « crevice at the base of the big fountain, a crevice in the pretty scroll work where the dust of daily sweeping had been for years. T — | itt s en oy urst forth into the h hall t day a shoot of green excited air “< t zat ei ; ence was only an infinites. part o sample of No. 2 red is now a stalk winter wheat, four inches high and ing . te ne, Enee the vivi ence o @ gentle spray pour the little cuplds above, who, be iron, do not know they are in visible supply of wheat.

THE ACREAGE IS NOT LARGE. TIMOTHY THE MOST POPULAR AMONG GROWERS. Peculiar Uses to Which Hay Is Put aud Interesting Statistics to the Farmer as Well as Consumer. CHICAGO, May 17.—A deficiency of mois- ture during the early spring generally causes a shortage in the hay crop, 50 in consequence of the light rainfall of the past month reports from the country suggest that the supply of this necessary com- modity this season will be less than it has been for several years. In addition to the prospects of a light yield the comparatively higher prices of all grain has induced num- bers of farmers to plow up their meadows, while the same cause has prevented many new The hay most that is ones. valuable seed. ng the area tm this country devoted to is usually something close to 50,000,000 acres. According to the agricul- tural reports the yield in the States considerably exceeds a ton to acre, while the value is placed at some per ton. Both estimates are rather high, for even in those localities most noted for the production of grass the crucial test = a press and scales generally prove the yie of merchantable hay to be slightly under a ton per acre; still if the farmers could ob- tain the price the report states they would be perfectly satisfied with such a return, for. cons dering that during the initial year the land is occupied by another crop, and that a meadow once laid down 1s good for geveral years, the first cos of seeding: is infiniteswna!l, while the expense ol caring for the crop. even if all the work is done outside labor, does not exceed $1.50 an others from crop is one produced.

WIFE KILLED HER HUSBAND. Latter Died in Texas, the Woman Claims Her Citizenship and Refuses to Return to Mexico. Special to the Post-Dispatch. WASHINGTON, May 20.—A matter which if with any other country than Mexico might involve the .United States in a se- rious controversy will soon be before the Siate Department. It deals with the mur. der of an American citizen by his wife, her fiight to the United States and a de. mand for possession of the criminal. The facts were sent the new Mexican Ambassador and thelr presentation the President will be his first important official act since he assumed charge. It is the first case which has arisen under the new ex- tradition treaty negotiated by the late min. ister, Senor Romero. The fact that the persons concerned are both citizens of this country and that the crime was a homicide committed by a woman, adds an unsual in- terest to this opening chapter of an inter- national drama. The scene of the crime is in the little town of Juarez, Mexico, near the border of the United States. Martin Rich, a wealthy old gentleman fron the United States, had lived for some time in Mexico and had amassed consid- erable money. His wife decided to get rid of him and plunged a dagger into his back. She fled with the dying man to El! Paso, Texas, where the husband died. The Mexican Consul made a _ requisition for the possession of the prisoner, but the woman set up the claim of being an Amer- ican citizen. The demand on the State De- partment followed. Though the murdered man d.ed on American soil the deed was committed in Mexico, and under our treaty the Government of Mexico has a right to such a prisoner, ‘but the fact that this pris- oner is an American citizen leaves the case in a different light.

It was established and owned by one man afid never got out from under his control until a bullet ended his life. The only persons. who were not dependent upon him directly were the few county of- ficeholders and the saloon keepers. But even they derived their votes and wealth from the Holladay corporation and — that fact. For three or four years Holladay con- tinued to live in his big house at Williams- ville. Less than a year ago he completed a great mansion with bay windows and tur- rets and hardwood and moved his family to Greenville. The place was within sight of his big store. At an equal distance in the opposite direction there was a cottage, peacefully squatting in the middle of a pretty acre of ground. It belonged to Holladay. There lived Monroe Johnson and his wife, Nancy, the sister of the two Haynie girls whom the rich lumberman had married. JOHNSON. Johnson was employed as a timber agent by the Holladay corporation. Mrs, John- son acted as cashier in the company’s of- fice. People at Greenville thought nothing of that. Mrs. Johnson was the rich lumber- man’s sister-in-law. Besides, the people of The woodpile behind which Johnson hid, the house in which he lived and the scene of the murder. Greenville had no right to think. They were dependent upon Holladay for bread. Johnson was a peculiar man. He was not popular. He wore a long mustache, and his eyes were gray and cold. There seemed to be no warmth about them or him. His looks did not inspire familiarity. He went about his business quietly, and was not addicted to much speech. That eye of his made one think of unpleasant things. If the people of Greenville did not dare think, Johnson did. He suspected wrong- doing between his wife and his employer. Some say he spoke to Holladay and threat- ened him with vengeance. Last Sunday Johnson wandered out Into his back yard. He busied himself around the woodpile for half an hour or more. No- body seemed to notice him at the time, but he was arranging a place where he could secrete himself. He also placed some sacks on the rear porch, and they were not dis- turbed. THE MURDER. Late in the afternoon he informed his wife that he was going to St. Louis. Ap- parently he started. But he did not go. After nightfall he returned to the house and sought the woodpile. There he re- mained in silence until— He saw a figure approach the house. The front door opened. A woman’s face ap- peared and the figure entered. Then Johnson arose and crept softly to- ward the house. He threw himself with all his force against the door, and it was broken in. The dim light revealed the forms of Mrs. Johnson and Hiram Holla- day. Johnson drew the revolver with which he had armed himself and fired. Holladay fell. Time after time the hammer clicked and half a dozen bullets entered the form of the prostrate man. In a minute he was dead. Johnson left the house like a man stroil- ing downtown and went to the little hotel. There he told of the deed he had done and soon afterward surrendered to the Sheriff. From the first there was intense feeling pro and con, Some men claimed that Johnson was jus- tified by circumstances. Others said it was a deliberate murder; that Johnson, having once warned Holla- day, was actuated by a spirit of revenge. Some said the slayer should go free; oth- ers that the law should take its course and that the coid-eyed Johnson should face the gallows-tree. Inside of an hour the whole town of Greenville was divided on the question of Johnson's responsibility. before the law. Men who had not dared think» while Hoila- day was alive breathed more freely and were secretly glad that he was no more. He furnished them their daily bread, yet they considered him an oppressor, because they had to rent from him, buy from him and work for him. It was the puerile resentment of the weak against the strong. Others upheld the memory of the man who had been their benefactor and declated his death an outrage which should be pun. ished to the law’s limit. Evidence was heard by a coroner’s jury on the day of Holladay’s funeral and they ordered Johnson held for the next grand jury of Wayne County. THE WOMAN. While all this was going on Mrs. Johnson remained at home. Every night since the tragedy she has slept in the room which is marked by the blood of her despoiler. Her father and her 13-year-old son were in the hovse at the time the shooting occurred. She talks to them as calmly as though nothing had happened. She avoids the gaze of her neigthhbcrs as much as possible and will receive nobody in her house.

COLUMBIA, &. C., May 19. N two tiny rooms on the “Sand Hills,” | near Columbia, lives, in his gray old age, one of the most distinguished men, one of the most dashing, knightly soldiers that the South has ever boasted. To this narrow home is Gen. Wade Hamp- ton driven by the recent burning of his cot- tage, ‘““‘The Southern Cross.”’ Gen. Hampton is the head of one of the most famous cold families of the Palmetto State. His ancestral estate, ‘““Milwood” was one of the most beautiful in the South. Princely hospitality to all comers was its rule, and pretty nearly every visitor of im- portance from Europe to the United States was there entertained. Gen. Wade Hamp- ton’s father had vast estates in Mississippi, as well as South Carolina, and was the largest slave owner in the country. Now, within plain view of the gaunt and blackened columns that mark the site of *“Milwood”’ a kindly white-bearded old gen- tleman comes cut at Intervals from the two rooms that shelter him to feed his chickens. Ever in his old age—he is 8l—and crippled by the loss of his leg, he is etill a hand- some man of distinguished presence, the Rupert of his State. It was the war, of course. ; When it came Wade Hampton was one of the leaders of his State. For the inevit- able conflict ge raised the standard of the Hampton Legion of Cavalry—daredevils and rough riders, every man of them. The Hampton Legion simply fought through the war; fought at every chance for fighting; fought in the very last skir- mish. . Gen, ee In 186 Millwood was bu.

The big stone columns of the portico of the old house stood up stark and useless, and still stand. Some of the humbler bricks from the ruins were dug out and with them a cottage of four rooms was built in the Southern style, with big exterior chim- neys. In time two more rooms were added in the rear, and the cottage then came to be known as the Southern Cross—its shape was rather that of a fat letter “H.” Here Gen. Hampton lived in the inter- vais of public service as Senator, Gover- nor and Railroad Commissioner. Here he retired when too old for longer official ser- vice. In the recent fire the four older rooms of this cottage were destroyed. The two newer ones in the rear, connected with the older portion by a passage, were saved. Something else was saved, something more valued than money. The General brought out his sword. Then, when the flames were fiercest he hobbled into the burning house and stumbled out a moment later, cough- ing and gasping with beard and hair scorched, bearing his r'eanael Daisy’s pet dog. In the two rema'ning rooms of his cot- tage the General lives. To the east of the house pine trees guard like sentinels the spot where stood his beautiful home. Across the way is the home of Col. John C. Haskell, and in a cottage near by live the three sisters of Gen. Hampton. They were forced to take refuge here two years ago after the destruction by fire of thelr home, Just before the burning of “The South- ern Croes” Gen. Hampton passed his eighty-first birthday. The manner of its celebration proved in what regard he is : 04, nebo [ MISS DAISY sanPTORN\\ The “birthday dinner’ was an informal affair, where only his three eisters, his children, grandchikdren and great-grand- children and a few friends were present.

Taylor, who went out as Assistant Surgeon of the Legion and be- came Medical Director of the] Cavalry Corps. There were various callerae during the birthday. The first a Confederate veteran, 8 years old, drove out In a buggy alone and brought with him a bottle of wine in wh.ch to drink the health of his comrade.

But this family of knights and ladies will never grace a “round table” or any other tabie, for Gen. Hampton will never permit one of his pets to be eaten. Gen.

A flexible cable of five wires bc! leads into the club handles through a rub- ber tube, the wiring being entirely con- ‘cealed. Three series of eight three-candle power colored miniature lamps are set in emall, turned brass sockets the length of the club, specially so the lamps stand out at right angles to its surface. This gives Six series of different colors .to the two clubs, with which very beautiful combina- tions of color can be made, and rapidly changed, with appropriate music. At the tip of each club is a 32-candlé power, 50- Volt lamp, which usually run on 110 Volts and gives a light too dazzling for the naked eye. Switches are placed inside the clubs, by means of which the series can Be quickly cut in two for 58-volt circuits.

As the storm ceases the latter part of “Anchored” is sung through the mega- phone; a perfect double rainbow gradually appears in the dark sky and is dissolved by a water rheostat by sending the rays of a single-loop filament incandescent lamp through a prism.

It is the com- intention to operate an _ interna- t-onal belt line around the gorge when its Suspension bridge ts finished. The new bridge will have a cable span of while the suspended span will be Tee width of the roadway of the bridge will be 2 feet on the inside, a space that will afford room for a eingle track for electric cars running through the cen- ter and also for carriages to pass on either side of the track. The structure will be supported by four cables, each composed the electric traction arch that of 14 wire ropes two and a quarter inches These cables are now in po- sition. The ropes of which they are made once formed the cables of the old upper Niagara Falls. This in diameter. while-the anchorages were lo- distance back from the towers. the use of very long cables, the new bridge these cables were cut in half, and the ropes so cut used for the cables of the new bridge. In this form, however, the ropes are not long enough to fill out the cable span entirely and reach back to the anchorages, and for this reason eye-barg are used to piece out about 74 feet at each end of the cable span and also from the towers back to the an- chor pits. This is the first suspension bridge at Niagara ever constructed in this It will also be the first suspen- sion bridge to carry a trolley car across the river. The towers of the bridge are a, in number, two on each side of the new bridge, This caused The towers stand on the top of the high banks, but the bridge, strange to say, will sw.ng midway between the surface of the river and the tops of the cliffs. Ita height above the river will be 65 feet, and it will be just 16 feet above the tracks ‘of the orge road, the trolley line running throug gorge. This is quite unlike all of the sug- pension bridges at Niagara so well known to the public, for they were built even with the top of the river banks, fully 200 feet above the rapid running waters of the tu- multuous lower Niagara. Between the cables at the New York end | platform hae | been erected to ace ommodate the workmen of the bridge a large movable who are placing the suspenders in order that the floor beams and girders may put in place. The work of erecting stcel will’begin at the New York end and proceed toward Canada. As section by sec- tion -is built the swinging platform will move out across the river, at all times af- fording the men safe quartere in which to work. It is not expected that the placing of tho steel will occupy many months, the parts will be put together with great wl gy Wea and before summer the structure will be ready for the electr'c car service ‘tween the two countries. The metal that w.ll ‘be placed on the bridge will weigh 200 tons. The erection of this bridge recalls to mind the fact that the bridge that formerly occupied the site was built about 3 years ahead of the demands of the times. It was a wooden structure. A short time pre- vious to the storm that ruined it, a great floe of ice passed down the river. It was evident to the bridge officials that the guys near the water's edge were in imminent danger of being torn away, and so men were ordered to hurriedly remove them up out of danger. This was done, The masees of ice passed on down to Lake Ontario. Fair weather followed. The men in charge of the bridge forgot to refasten the guys, and while in their loosened condition a hurricane ewept down the canyon between the rock cliffs. The bridge was soon swing- ing back and forth on the storm, and about 11 o’clock that morning a portion of the supereétructure was torn from its supports and fell into the river. As the bridge was not financially profitable, it was never re- built and for yea.s it continued to drop away, piece by piece, until when the new bridge was started there was nothing but @ remnant of the superstructure and the cables to cut away be the | the | for | O illustrate how the world must ap- aa pear to the view of the beetle the picture herewith shown js submitted, Itisa + age tg of a curious gcc mada, by Dr. G. F. Allen of Aurora, LIl., t give a tangible pg of the ac- tion of a beeile’s eye. To make it, Dr. Al- len used a camera designed for photograph- ing microscopic objects. In place of the usual photographic lens he employed the garnea of the eye of a beetle to transmit the image to the photographic dry plate, aided by a powerful magnifying gtass. His subject was the silhouette of a: head, pasted-on a piece ef ground glass, behind which a ‘lantern throwing a strong Nght was placed. Waving focused properly, the dry plate was exposed and developed in the usual manner.

Science decides that nature has fash- ioned the beetle’s eye in this pecullar man- ner to enable the insect to form his judg- ments of distance, depencing on the power of each facet to refract the light rays.. The nearer the object toe the beetle the greater is the area of each image on the retina, Dr. Allen’s singular photograph was of- fered at a recent meeting of British sclen- tists in contradiction of a statement that the eyes of such insects as beetles are un- adapted, seemingly, to see by ordinary daylight.

‘39HER 80TH BIRTHDAY ON WEDNESDAY. & will complete her Sth year. This woman, who has ruled over the des- tinies of England for 62 years, ever since she entered womanhood, seems to be no elder to-day than she was two years ago, when her jubilee was celebrated with so much pomp. When the last day of the Queen's Dia- mond Jubilee was over she summed it up N° WEDNESDAY Queen Victoria by saying wearily: “Tt makes me realize that I am a very eld woman.” Yet tne Queen superintended in person the “drawing room’”’ given at Buckingham Palace last Tuesday and on the day fol- lowing laid the-corner stone of the museum at South Kensington. From there she went to Windsor, bringing to an end the gala days of the tourists, who were permitted to explore the castle. A stage has been built in the Waterloo Chamber for the chief event of the Queen’s birthday, a performance of “Lohengrin,” following a big royal dinner party. After her birthday the Queen will go north to her favorite Balmoral, none the worse, doubtless, for so hard a fortnight. It is probable that the rather stuffy room in Kensington Palace, in which she was born in 1819, will then be opened to the pub- lic on the Queen’s birthday to signalize the occasion. Alterations and restorations have been going on in the homely, squat old building for some time in the leisurely British way. How does the Queen keep so young? The court circular for the outing in the South of France tells part of the story. Every day, forenoon and afternoon, Her Majesty spent evey available moment in the open air, driving about behind the royal horses, or behind little Jocko, the celebrated white donkey who has done practically all of the Queen’s walking for her out of doors for lo! these many years, Whenever the Queen little legs do the work while the Queen sits in the chaise. When she goes for a drive the horses honored with her confidence are some of the most conservative beasts in Britain, having been tested with all sorts of noises, from small boys with tin horns to brass bands gathered in the Buckingham Palace yard for the especial purpose of seeing if they can frighten the horses, The final stage in the training of these animals is a course of bagpipes. If they can hear bagpipes without so much as twisting an ear then they are considered beyond sus- picion. The care that the Queen has been taking to prolong her reign has been shown in many other ways by incidents of this out- ing at Cimiez, which has cost her about $75,000, including the expenses of her suite of some 50 persons, and the $12,500 month- ly rent of her wing of the Hotel Regina. She sleeps better in her own bed, and consequently that cumbrous piece of furni- ture went to Cimiez with her. She finds delight in her dogs and birds, so they went OLDEST WOMAN IN THE WORLD. RS. MARY M’DONALD, who is an M inmate of the Home for Aged and Infirm Colored Persons in Phila- delphia, is supposed to be the oldest wom- an in the world. On last New Year’s Day she celebrated her 129th birthday. Dr. Henzey, under whose care Mrs, McDonald has been for the past 14 years, has investi- gated the records and says there is no ques- tion as to the correctness of her claim, As a farm helper on the hille near his- toric Valley Forge she helped the starving boys of Washington's army to the best po- tatoes, nuts and apples that were stored in her master’s kitchen. Mrs. McDonald is a remarkable woman. She hae never worn glasses, and in the past three years she has sewed 133% pounds of carpet balls. She retains all her mental faculties and discusses events of more than a century ago as though they happened re- cently. In her early life she worked for Reese Howell, near Valley Forge. “I was 18 years old before I was free. I was not a slave but a servant, and was ap- prenticed for many years. FI was married at 18. My husband was a good, hardwork- Ing man. We had nine children. When my husband was dying he called me to him and said: ‘Mary, I’m going to leave you. But before I go I’ve got one favor to ask. I don’t want you to marry again. Will you promise it?’ And I said: ‘Yes, I will.’”’ When asked to what she owed her 129 years of good health she said: “To a plain way of living and to plenty of ex- ercise. I never had the pleasures that girls want to-day. I never danced. I was al- — s against that. But I took ge walks rode horseback. I rose at daylight and always retired about 10 or 11 o'clock at night. We had plenty of fun, and I shall never forget the popcorn parties we gave around the big open fireplaces.

Victoria !s as careful about her food as she is about sleep and exercise. Occasion- ally she takes a little whisky and water, “for her stomach’s sake.”” She is not much given to taking medicine. Open air is her sovereign remedy. The Queen is German on her mother’s side and German a few removes away on her father’s side, and she would have been born in Germany if her father had not fig- ured it out that his eldest child might some day be the ruler of England, and that it would therefore be well for the infant's goes for a “stroll” it is Jocko whose fat claims on the throne if he or she first saw light in England. So, two months before the expected event he hurried his Duchess away from her home in Leiningen. There were no railroads in those days, and it is said that the Duke himself drove the coach from Amorbach to the Dutch coast, for fear that a less interested coachman might drive carelessly.

The complaint against Dr. Curtiss is ¢ummed up in the following. language, which is indorsed by Dr. Gilbert: One of the most important results of critical study is that the prophet wus primarily a preacher, who addressed men of his time with reference to their eins, and whose utterances were with re- epect to the historical situation ef the le. This is a principle which, as have impliei—not to mention Germang —is undoubtedly held by the great ma- ih of Old Testament professors in thé ating seminaries of the Congregation- aliste and Presbyterians in Great Britain and America. * * Concretely stated, 0 prophet had an andience to whom hé ke with reference to the history of his times.

A strange thrill runs through her au- ditors, viewing this black woman, born a slave, self-educated, eloquent and wholly given over to one cause, preaching «he gos- pel of Christ with the earnestness of a martyr. “Sanctification’’ is her theme—'‘tholiness"’ that Goctrine taught by one branch of the Methodist church, which claims that it is possible for man to live without sin. “If Christ cen spre me from sin this minute,” @ays the holiness advocate, ‘‘oan he not keep me for two minutes? And if for two ménutes, for an hour? And if for an ‘hour, for a day? And if for a day, so on forever?’ _ nts doctrine Mrs. Smith preaches wher- «vor she goes. She has preached it to the nations of four continents. She preached it to her auditors in St. Louis. Her favorite song is “The Lord Wil! Pro- vide,” an air found In every Methodist hymnbook, which these words accompany: In some way er other The Lord will provide. It may not be my way, It may not be thy way, And yet in His own way The Lord will provide. These simple words Mrs Smith uses fre- quently in her Work. She firmly believes that the Lord willl provide for those who are determined to succeed. It Was with this belief that e@he eatablished her home for negro urphans at North Harvey, Ill. It was @ matter of faith. She hardly had a cent when she started. In three years she raised every dollar necessary to found the orphanage and put it on a paying basis. Next month she expects to pay the last cent due. The world was her field. Hard work got the money. Mrs. Smith has written an autobiography. It is called “Amanda Smith's Own Story,” and wae written in 1892 and 1998, after re- peated urgings from many Infivential white friends, who felt that the history of. her If the ‘church bert’s teachings are In violation of.the faith upon which our church founded, then it becomes the duty of the State assecla- tion to either appoint a ccmmittee to re- port on the question or refer the matter to a special committee, The whoie thing resis with the Board of D'!rectdrs of the semi- nary, 'Tf the AfrettOze, accede to the re- quest of thé CHidagé Milnisters for an inves- tigation of Der. Gilbert's beliefs, and shall decide to stop him from teaching them any longer at the gsetninary, then the State as- ‘ation will have nothing to say, is Sor The churches of the Congregational de- nomination have a right to know just where Ir. Gilbert stands. He occuples a chair at the seminary and draws a salary from the church. If he is not tn full sympathy with the declaration of faith he certainly should not be permitted to remain. Before he took the chair at the seminary he was required, under the constitution of that institution, to declare himself in full accord with the creed of the church. The constitution also requires that each of the professors shall renew his declaration of faith as often as the Board of Directors shall wish.” Dr. Carr performed one of his duties when he made his minority report last week against the two and he can carry that re- port to the State Association and demand investigation, as he probably will. Before sending its report to the-Board.of Directors of the Semindry, the State Association can lay it before a special body of % men, located in various States of the Union and known as the Committee of Twenty-four, When that committee has acted upon the report of the State Association its action will go to the Seminary directors. They may try Dr. Gilbert or call him before them and aek for his renewal of his pledge to the creed. Either course would precipitate a crisis and the inevitable schism. The sta: ement of Dr. Dr, Curtian as to his final position, @ statement whieh finds. re- flection in the views of Dr. Gilbert, contains in it something pathetic and touching: I make no claims to superior wisdom, although I know tre tart ng about this sulijact, <eNe | etudied it for 20 years, having bee esent at the trial of Prof, Ww. itoberteen Smith, having known al- most every Old Testaifient critic of sprominegee on both sides of the ocean ‘either personally oF otherwise. and, as a private pupil of Prof. Delitssch for four years and intimate with him until iis death, having witnessed the anguish of his struggles before he declared him- self an adherent of the modern critical views. I have felt sometiing of the same anguish. Dr. Frank W. Gunsaulus, the eloquent Chicago divine, who was strongly talked of as the successor of Prof. David Swing, believes that the charges against Drs. Cur t's and Gilbert, even if pressed, will not re sult seriousiy. The writings of both minis- ters, he said, were clearly within the lines of progressive Congregationalism, and he considers Dr. Curtis’ papers as cautious in the extreme and not calculated to stir up emotion upon the subject of which they teach. There was a feeling in the con- servative element that both men represent a certain phase of theological thought and, criticism which have won their way else- where. Dr. Gunsaulus said: ‘"The fact is that men who are not afYata of the truth are welcoming all kinds of inquiry with respect to the sacred docu- ments and are perfectly certain that a thorough investigation will show that the Bible is all that it assumes to be. The Bible never assumed to be infallible on geology, astrqnomy or chronology. It.is not a revelation, but the story ofa revelation. It if the record of a race having a genius for ethics, as had the Greeks for esthetics. Its books are governed by the law of the survival of the fittest, and they represent a gradual development in the history of man’s apprehension of great truths con- Hfe was too remarkable to be sogt to the world. -Mrs. Smith is not good looking, even for @ member of her race, but her taste in dress is ex@eljent.

She ie not in the least vain-glorious and will say but little about herself, more than to tell her age and early surroundings. She refers to her race as “black people.”’ She was born at Long Green, Md. Jan. 23, 1837. Her father, Samuel Berry, was so faithful and industrious that his mistress Rave him a chance to buy his freedytm. Then he started in to buy his wife and children. In the meantime Berrys wife's young mistress became converted. As a dying request her father was asked to give Berry his wife and children, and he did 80. Thus ft came that Mrs. Smith, daughter, was set free. Soon the famtly moved to Pennsylvania. time she was 13 years old, In 1854 she was married.to her first hus- band, €. Devine. He believed in religion because his mother did, but was much given to strong drink and his wife was not happy. When the war broke out he enlisted and was killed in battle. After that she went to Philadelphia and worked as a servant, taking her little daughter with her. There she became ac- quainted with James Smith, a local preach- er of the A. M. E. Church, and they were married. Their life was unsatisfactory for a time, owing to two sets of children. Mrs. Smith became deeply engrossed in religion and told her husband that she felt it her duty to become an evangelist. He approved of this, and said he was considering a plan of entering the regular ministry. This he failed to do. In fact, he deceived her as to his intentions, hav- ing done it with the hope of pleasing her. Mrs. Smith abandoned for a time her idea: of becoming an evangelist and they moved to New York City in 1865. Their life there was very hard and unhappy. Her husband was improvident and unkind and once left her. He had been away two weeks and she went to New Utrecht, N. Y., where he was, to ask him for money. Her husband's son-in-law, John Bentley, was there, and he cursed her shamefully. In her autobi- ography Mrs. Smith says of this occur- rence: “I believe he incurred the God, as did Elymas, the. sorcerer, who withstood Paul, and sought to turn away Sergius Paulus from the faith, and was stricken blind When St. Paul denounced him. “When John Bentley cursed and swore at me I did not know he was going to »/ the eldest after that At that displeagure of AMANDA oMITAt strike me. YI went up to him and looked him in the face and said to him: “*When you’ have been at my house, haven't I always treated you well? Why ahould you curse me this wag?’ ‘He went on talking and abused me ter- ribly. There seemed to come an indeseorib- able power over me, and I turned and lifted my hand toward him and said to him: ‘**Mind, John Bentley, the God that I serve will make you pay for this before the year is out!’ “He said; ‘Well, I don't care if he does, Let him do It.’ “He had not more than sald the words when he seemed to tremble and stagger. T‘aere was a4 chalr behind him and he dropped down into the chair. I never saw him from that day. This was about two weeks before Christmas, and before the New Year came John Bentley was dead and buried. “IT always feel sad when I think of ft, but I believe that God was displeased with that man for cursing me that day.”’ In October, 1868, Mrs, Smith embraced the doctrine of sanctification. Here is a bit of her philosophy growing out of that belief: “At a camp \meeting at Ocean Grove a white woman asked her if she would not prefer to be white. “No, no,’ he sald, “as the Lord lives, I would rather be black and fully saved than to be white and not saved. I was bad enough, black as I am, and I would have been ten times worse if I had been white. “How she roared laughing! “She was all right, but I think she just wanted to test me a little bit. “Yes, thank God, I am satigfied with my color, I am glad I had no choice in it, for if I had, I am sure I would not have been satisfied; for when I was a young girl I was passionately fond of pea green, and If cndice had been left to me would have chosen to be green, and I am sure God's color ig the bect and most substantial. “It's the blood that makes whiteness. Hallelujah !’’ In November, 1969, Mrs. Smith started on her oareer as an evangelist, and she has been at the work continuously since. Soon after she commenced the work she discovered that she ‘was leaning too much on Mrs, Scott."’ This Mra. Scott was also a religious worker, and they were intimate. ly associated in every way. Yet Mrs. Smith believed she was learning to depend too much upon ber. In her book she says: “With tears I begged the Lord to cut me loose from s‘ster Scott. I said, ‘Lord, it al. most kille me, but oh, deliver me, cut me loose, if you have to kill me, cut me loose!’ h what a dying it was! It seemed my eart was bound around with cords, and to let go would take my Hfea but I cried, ‘O Lord, cut me loose" and it was as though some one snapned with a knife the cords around my heart, and 1 breathed freely, and said: ‘Thank God, I have got the vie- tory!

Luther showed that there was eomething more authoritative than the church, and he was succeeded by a Protes- tantism, which adopted book worship in- stead of chureh 'worship.. The true theology which is coming to rule men’s thought cen- ters its influence in Christ Himself, and it declares that He is the revelution of God which alone will gsatisfy»the human soul. The whole future of Christendom depends upon our rational and scholarly apprecia- tion of the Bible, which miust be treated as cernin of h a collection of records containing a spiritual vision ever growing 2nd losing many of its previous characteristics as the blade grows into the corn and the corn into the full ear. The more light that such scholarly criticism as that of Profs. Gilbert and Curtiss throws upon the Bible, the more will it rise superior to the theories of criticism of skeptics. “If the church attempts to turn out men who hold views held by these professors it will have to get along without the vast ma- jority of its scholars and Influential men. You might as well protest against the rising sun. The tide is flowing, and higher criti- cism, or a better appreciation of the truths of the Bible, is here to stay. Of course it will bring upon the church the problem of accounting for the past, but the future will take care of itself. Dr. Curtiss’ essays show the value of this new criticigm, and such teachings help to raise the enormous burden the church has been carrying.” ROF. ARTHUR CUSHMAN M’GIF- p FERT of New York holds views con- cerning the Bible which make him a heretic, as far as the Presbyterian Church is concerned. ; His closest friends say that he is not a heretic and that they will show him to have been misjudged by those who have been loudest in denouncing him for the views he expressed in his famous book, “The Apostolic Age.” York City. Mr. McGiffert’s parents moved to Ashta- bula in 1866. Arthur attended the Ashta- bula schools until he graduated, after which he received tnstruction from his father, preparatory to enterihg college. His father was Rev. J. N. McGiffert, D. D., who for 30 years previous to his death was pastor of the First Presbyterian Church of New York City. The young man entered the Western Re- serve College, then located at Hudson, in the sophomore year, and studied under Dr. Cutler, who was then president of that in- stitution. Graduating In 1881, having won the valedictory in both school and college, he then went to Union ‘Theologi¢al Sem- inary, where he attended for four years. In 1885 he married Miss Eliza King of Washington, D. C., a sister-in-law of Prof. Charies Smith of Adelbert College. Mrs. McGiffert died In 1886. In 1891 he was married to Miss Gertrude Boyce of East Orange, N. J. Mr. McGif- fert has three children, one by his first wife and two by his second wife. After completing his studies at the Union Theo- logical Seminary he went to Germany. After finishing his theological course there under Prof. Harnack he returned to Amer- ica, expecting to preach. He received an urgent call to Lane Theological Seminary in Cincinnati, and after occupying a chair there for some time accepted the chair of church history in the Union Theological Seminary in New York. He fille the chair of Prof. Philip Schaff, who died five years ago. About @ year ago Prof. McGiffert re- ceived a call from Harvard Colleg to ac- cept a chair there. James McGiffert says that his brother is a stanch Presbyterian and not a Unitarian, as has been claimed. He also says that: he is a firm believer in the divinfty of! Christ, in the Trinity and in all the doc- trines of the Presbyterian Church, but that: he does not believe in the inerrancy of the Scriptures. He further says that Prof. Mc- Giffert wrote the book “The Apostolic: Age’ for theological scholars and not for the masses, and that those whom he in- tended the book for would rightly under- stand its meaning. He says that the boo as a whole is plain, but that garbled ex- tracts might be misconstrued, Cat , i on wth Tonle? Pee Tit’ ae ; Via alge lt is had i

There remain no widows under either of the first two laws. It is probably safe to say that there is not in the United States any one alive who was married before 1800. All of the widows on this list married their husbands when they were young and their husbands long past middle age. In one or two cases the brides were under 20 and the bridegrooms nearing the allotted three score and ten. Miss Rhoda Augusta Thompson's pension Was granted by a special act of Congress on June 9, 1896. She receives $12 a month. Miss Thompson's father was Thaddeus Thompson, who was born in 1761 in Con- necticut. He joined the Revolutionary Army in 1777, when he was 16 years old. He was a private in the New York Artil- lery, Col, Lamb’s regiment, which served with Gen. Henry: Knox's brigade. He served six years and was wounded by a cannon shot at Yorktown in 1781. He was discharged in 1783, on June 9, his discharge papers being s'gned by Wash. ington himself. On tthe back of the dis- charge is printed a note to the effect that the paper must he considered only a fur- lough until such time as the treaty of peace was arranged. Later there was written on the discharge the date “Nov. 3." Thomp- son received a ‘‘badge of merit’’ at his dis- charge for ‘“‘six years’ faithful service." Thompson was married in 1800'to Miss Rhoda Sperry. He had. several children, of whom Rhoda Augusta Thompson was the youngest, born in 1831, Mrs. Thomp- son died in August, 1828, and her husband in June, 1829, while Miss. Thompson was still only a little girl, Thompson received a pension for several years before his death--granted by John C. Calhoun. He was 68 years of age when he died, , Mre. Hannah Newell: Barrett draws a pension as the daughter of Noah Harrod, Harrod joined Capt. Mills’ company of Col. Shepard's regiment in 1781 and served as a private until 174.

Stephen Mayo joined the Fourteenth Virginia Infantry, under Col. Charles Lewis, 1777. Later he was in other commands. He was at Brandywine and Germantown and was discharged at Valley Forge. Mrs. Mayo applied for her pension as the widow of a Revolutionary veteran,in 1838, immediately after the law was passed which allowed pensions to widows who were mar- ried after 1800. She received the pension and continued to draw it until March 1, 1861, when it was cut off on account of the Civil war. Soon after the civil war was over a law was passed by Congress granting a renewal of pensions to all residents of the Southern States who could prove their loyalty to the Union during the war. Under this act Mrs. Mayo applied in 1866 and was given her pen- Sion again with arrears. Mrs. Nancy A. Weatherman, the widow of Robert Glasscock, a Virginia soldier in the Revolution, has had a remarkable history in addition to the fact that she was the wife of a Revolutionary soldier. Mrs. Weatherman was born in 1810. She married Glasscock in 1833, when she was 238 years old. The old Revolutionary veteran Was then 69. Glasscock was a fifer. He en- listed in 1777, when he was 14, and served three years in Col. Russell's Virginia regi- ment. He was in the battles of Monmouth and Paulus Hook and marched to Valley Forge. In his declining years Glasscock ob- tained a pension of $8 a month for his ser- vices. When Glasscock died, in October, 1839, Mrs. Glasscock remained a widow only three months. She was remarried to Rob- ert Howell in January, 1840. Howell dled in 1859. A few months after Howell's death Mrs. Howell applied for a pension as the widow of Robert Glasscock, the Revolutionary veteran. The law is that the widow of a Revolutionary soldier cannot draw a pen- sion for his services to his country while she is the wife of another man. Mrs. Howell received her pension until the eutbreak of the civii war, when it was cut off. In 1866 she applied for reinstate- ment, and was put on the rolls again, after swearing that she had not borne arms against the Union or helped the rebellion. She drew the pension three years, until she was married the third time, to Cornelius Weatherman, in 1869. Weatherman died in April, 1899. In 1877 Mra. Weatherman a third time ap- plied for and received a pension as the wiu- ow of Glasscock. The Government gives her $8a month. O:d Mrs, Weatherman can- not write, and has signed all her applica- tions to the Pension Office with her mark. yer IE RR I RE , atv SR RPE PORE FIO A : PEA : Py tee # x + oS “a ce . zgeeN tT FT OT : ‘ SO RT ee RN, Te . a. ba SENSEI Ee SRA INT Let be CPI IEE Be, UN Seg URED DT. es MSS ep ’ 5 5 az = yee : a its. od * ao +} ve my, MEN 9 ey is A si - hae Sealy ie. ‘edit, AA Goce cndins BOM ni. ee, a ed BORA RS de AEA ER * — : IN HONOR OF NELSON KNEASS, COM fe" x a Rae dad & , RS tp, 2th ae eet se 1 a aes _" a x - A Me TER te 4 a ee vc Rea, ee 2 P ow ro ~~ * 2 4 —— we iL — a A +. —_— _— He Adapted the Air From a German Source, Sang It Into Popularity and Died Fifty Years Ago. ————efe MONUMENT to Nelson Kneass will A be one of the results of “Trilby.

Porter, find- ing ouf that Kneass had a well-trained tenor yoice, told him that if he would compose a new song he would engage him for a drama he was going to bring out entitled “The Battle of Buena Vista.” Kneass had a friend called Hunt, an Eng- lishman, who had come across the poem “Ben Bolt” :n his native country, and com. mitted it to memory. He repeated the verses to Kneass, advising him to com- pose music for them. Kneass adapted a German melody to the words and sang the song to.great applause, He traveled with it all over the country; it was sung in Lion- don, and everywhere the English language was spoken. AS in the gase of other pop- ular poems, many claimants arose. A long controversy. finally ended: by establishing the rights of Thomas Dunn English to the words and of Nelson Kneass to the adapted music. , Dr. English has had due honors paid him as the author of the song. But Nelson Kneass, to whose music the popularity of the song is very largely indebted, has hardly been mentioned in its connection, and when it was, most always incorrectly.

Kip- ling writes ‘‘the thing as he gees it’”’ and Roosevelt does “the thing as he sees it.”’ With each this is tha mainepring of effort. They are still comparatively young men, who have made for themselves careers lit- tle influenced by ‘conventionalities ‘and have raised themselves. above their Yellow men by forceful ability. Roosevelt at San Juan was an embodiment of the spirit of Kip- ling’s ballads. There is nothing ordinary or commonplace about either of these men. ” A composite photograph of them is an in- teresting study. In the picture Kipling seems to predominate, but his face is much improved by the mingling of it with Roose- velt’s. A stronger and more solid look is given to it~—it is made more the face ofa man to command.

Perhaps it is out of respect for the detectives who stopped them in their career of crime that the male prisoners are particularly fond of reading the Sherlock Holmes stories, as related by A. Conan Doyie. No beoks in the Imited jail library are read by men with the avidity of these de- tective stories. Perhaps it is because Sher- lock Holmes works on such different lines from the detectives with whom they have come in contact that they are interested in learning how to avoid the detective of fiction. In the jail libarary there are only volumes, and they have all been well thumbed. Indeed, it looks as though they used an ax on many of them. The list is not the best that could be found, but some works are found onthe shelves, Victor Hugo’s ‘‘Les Miserables’’ is out con- stantiy, and the never tire of reading of Jean struggles, «ri- umphs and disappointments, Mrs. Mary Jane Holmes’ bocks are much in evidence ° There about a score of women in jall and they ail favor Mrs. Holmes’ Nght and airy stories. ‘‘Dark and Daylight” probably the most popular book in her list. ‘‘Mildred’’ is almost as popular, 236 splendid priso- ers Valjean’s are is See ———- — _— _ — a WHAT IS READ BY “ST.

Wright have. been appointed by the United States Government to meet at Jefferson Barracks, $t. Douis, to. examine plans which H. W. Daly of that post has to ‘ay-before them regarding improvements on the pack saddles now used in the United States army and new rules for packing goods carried by Government mules. Two kinds of saddles are in use—the old Aparejo and the Moore. The Aparejo is the more common, It weighs 64 pounds. The ordinary army mule can carry 330 pounds on it in a temperate climate and 23” pounds in a climate like that eof Cuba. The Aparejo is a leather mat 5 feet long by 2% feet wide. It is padded on the side “3 next to the animal, On the other side are sticks rupping lengthwise, ending at the NEW SADDLE FOR THE ARM middle, being long or short gccording to the breadth of back of the mitt al. These act as per ie to settle the saddle. One of Mr,. Daly's plans is to have these sticks changed to iron rods, as the weignt would not be more than 10 pounds extra. If the army were marching through a treeless region it would be a very serious matter if the sticks in the pack saddle were to break. He also proposes to have crosspleces of iron which can be s:rewed to the iron rods in the saddle, and on which Htters can be laid for removing wounded from the bat- tlefield. Mr. Daly has remodeled the rules regard- ing the packing of soldiers’ clothes and other equipments, and these he will pre- sent for consideration to this board. The Moore packsaddle is disliked by troop- ers. Although 30 pounds lighter 1 & the Aparejo, it is far more unwieldy, being stuffed entirely with hay and moss. It has no braces and soon gets out of shape. All of these saddles are of the same size.

In ithe first place about 25 people were killed. At Pottsville the regular train CFFEC! Or A from Philadelphia connected with an ex- cursion train from Harrisburg. the excursionists boarded the Philadeiphia Many of express, but the crowd was so great that it was decided to run the train in two sections. The first started 20 minutes ahead of the other. The first section stopped at The Locomotive Which Thrust Itself into the Pullman. Exeter for orders. While it was standing there the second section crashed into it. The Pullman on the rear of the regular train was struck with terrible force by the locomotive of the other, yet it was com- paratively undamaged. The rear platform and the lavatory were crushed in, but be- yond the first window at the rear the car remained intact. Its massiveness enabled it to resist the shock and likewise caused the force of it to be transmitted to the cars in front. As a result two day coaches and a combination mail and express car were literally tern to kindling wood. Not one piece was left upon another. Windows, roofs, lamps, bell cords, hatracks, . brakes, floors and wheels all went flying together, mingled with human bodies. How such force could have been genérated or put in motion by any human agency is almost past comprehension. The first coach of the exursion train was likewise torn to pieces. The wreck was terrible and com- plete. FUTURE O By F. A. Egan, Editor of the Wheel HILE Franme leads in the manu- W facture and use of automibiles for pleasure and sport, England ‘has not been slow to follow. America, however, has but just entered the race, in which she starts a very long way bchind her fiying competitors—the Frenchman and the Eng- lishman. This is history repeating itself; the story of the bicycle told over again. Eventually and shortly, too, America will overhaul and pass both France and Eng- land, and the shipment of American au- tomobiles from this country to every other country in the world will be as profitable as doing the same thing with bicycles has been. To-day not one American in a hun- dred knows just what a “motor car” is; hhow it is propelled; what it costs or what are its poseibiities as a thing of utility or of sport. Once even an inkling of these is gained the cult of automomobilism will spring into public favor. To choose either the English term of “motor car’ or the French one of “auto- mobile’ starts the new vehicle off with the burden of a very clumsy and entirely un- satisfactory name. : The motor car now is but the none too perfect beginning of a practical, speedy, economical and satisfactory solution of the transportation problem which has vexed men ever since the first chariot wheesl creaked and groaned over the alleged roads in fabled Phoenecia. To-day the building of mechanically driven carriages is in its infantile and ex- pensive stages, and manufavturers are lucky if they secure competent workmen even at high wages. The consequence is that the millionaire and those who ape him are the purchasers of most of the pleasure carriages now turned out. To F THE AUTOMOBILE. such an extent is the demand In excess of the supply that until the present season the purchaser of a carriage was asked to pay anywhere from $1500 to $000 therefor, half cash in advance when he gave his order, the remainder six months ater, when he received the vehicle. The same rule still prevails where popular motor ve- hicles Are the ones sought for. Once the owner of a carriage which does not require an animal to drag it around, and the world is filled with new possibilities. Space is lessened, time is saved and the making of a journey, be it great or small, becomes an exhilarating experience, to be looked forward to with pleasure. To thor- oughly appreciate this one must go to Paris, the birthplace and the home of the auto- mobile. For a Parisian to be a ‘‘chaffeur,”’ i. e., a holder of a license issued by the Municipal Council testifying that the re- cipient has appeared before that body and Proved competent to manage a machine- propelled vehicle, is an honor more sought after to-day by Frenchmen than any other. The chaffeur’s certificate has become a sort of patent of up-to-dateness, a thing at all times dearer to the heart of a Parisian than anything else. To gain this coveted bit of parchment it no easy thing. Position, influence and wealth are all of little value; the road to a chaffeurship must be traveled by all alike. First the would-be auto- mobilist must enter a school wherein each and every part of the mechanism of an automobile is explained. When this has been thoroughly mastered the pupil is taken to a large park wherein are roads and streets similar to those which must eventually be ridden over by the chaffeur. Upon these roadways at irregular intervals are sta- tioned life-sized imitations of horses, dogs, foot passengers, cabs, wagons and all such obstructions as are likely to cumber the future chaffeur’s right of way. Amid these various obstacles the machine must be guided at various speeds and under numer- ous adverse conditions. When all of this has been mastered a diploma i{s granted, which later is supplemented by a chaffeur’s certificate if the candidate successfully de- monstrates sufficient ability before the Mu- nicipal Council. Without such a certificate no one is allowed to pilot an automobile Over any thoroughfare in France. Roads and streets now built to withstand the harsh treatment they meet at the feet of millions of steel-shod animals and the Ssteel-bound wheels of the clumsy vehicles animals drag along will be replaced by smooth and level highways, constructed to resist only the wearing possibilities re- sulting from the rubber-shod wheels of the various forms of mechanically propelled ve- hicles, which will silently, safely and swiftly convey both freight and passen- gers to their various destinations. Street- cleaning will be reduced to the mere re- moval of dust and litter; filth and the flies it breeds will almost entirely disappear, leaving everything healthier and happier in consequence. So near at hand is all this, and more, too, that Col. Pope, the father of American cyling, recently declared in a protest he made before the Boston Park Commissioners dgainst their short-sighted policy in ruling the automobile from the oston parkways because it frightened the horses there, that in ten years’ time the horse would be the offender and he would be barred from the very same roads be- cause he would be declared a nuisance, un- clean, and a danger to public traffic, which traffic would within the coming decade become a thing almost entirely of ma- chinery. The future of automobiles as far as their domestic use is concerned is no longer a matter for speculation. The Whitney peo- ple. who control the storage-plate system, ntend to run automobiles in connection with their street railway systems. In other words, there are certain streets where cars cannot and never will be allowed to run. Automobiles will carry traffic and freight on those streets. In fact, this is already being done on the other side of the ocean, NENPHIS WANTS TO Mayor Proposes to Give a Railroad a Lease on It for 50 Years. PMPHIS proposes to preserve a sand-bar. Most river towns want to get rid of all the sand-bare; they cry for a straight, unobstructed river and denounce the engineers and commissions which fail to remove obstructions. Vice-Mayor Hadden asks the Counc] of Memphis to give the 75-acre sand-bar to the Choctaw & Memphis Railway for terminal facilities. The idea of Vice-Mayor Hadden grows out of his recent conference with the Mississippi River commission. He made liberal extracts from the data offered by the Commission and talked: with several of the members privately. It is his understanding that the River Commission, will not recommend the removal of the sand-bar. He was told that the river at Memphis was at present under control, and that the bar would not grow any more. To remove it, he was told, would entail a cost far greater than Congress and would more was willing to stand for, involve other complications of a threatening character. Hopefield point ex- the current against the Commission fears, with tended would throw the bar, but, such force that it might wash away val- uable property of the city. It was shown SAVE A SANDBAR. by charts that the bar had not grown an inch during the past fifteen months, and the Commission regards it as having passed the formative stuge, and say it has reached a permanent condition, when it will neither wash away.nor increase in size. One of the Commission suggested that it would be far better policy to preserve this bar than to attempt its removal. It would also be more economical, and he felt sure the Commission would do what it could in maintaining the bar and making it of serv- ice to the city. It was shown that by ju- d‘cious levying and filling up, the bar could be converted into an admirable wharf if the city desired to use it as such. It would entail some outlay in fortifying the bar against floods, but.the end, the Commission believes, would more than justify the means. Mr. Hadden says the Choctaw & Memphis Railroad is looking. for terminal facilities; that they have made application to the city for terminal room, The city desires to en- courage the road, and would give other Property if it had it to give, but as it has not the city, Mr. Hadden believes, would do well to give the sand-bar for fifty years free, and the improvements to be made by the company would be equal to any revenue the city might obtain from the rental of this property. Mr. Hadden explained that he is now con- vinced that the bar hag become permanent ground, and that there is no danger of it ever being washed away again. He says by expending several thousands of dollars, per- haps more, the bar can be raised to a height sufficient to place it beyond the encroach- ment of high water, and as there is no cur- rent striking the shore of the island at any point, it is secured from any washing or cutting which might follow the Striking of the current. —_——_ ——-_ YEAR OF JUBILEE The Papal Bull Proclaiming Spe- cial Dispznsations for the First Year of the Twentieth Century. the Roman Catholic Church all over the world. A papal bull has been promulgated from Rome within the past few days, decree- ing that the year shall be so observed throughout the church. The bull will soon be received in Washing- ton and will then be announced in all the churches of the country. A jubilee year Is a year of rejoicing and thanksgiving, of fasting and prayer, of re- missions of the consequences of gin and of increase of religious zeal. ; Usually during a jubilee year there are a few public demonstrations of joyful : thanksgiving for privileges enjoyed and blessings received, but being purely a re- ligious festival it is in the main observed through the regular services of the church, carried out with more than usual pomp. A mistaken impression obtains that a ju- bilee year is a time when, by complying with the conditiong which the church pre- scribes, remissions of sins may be ob- tained. Remission of sins is obtained through the sacrament, but the sacrament dealing directly with sin does not affect the consequences of sin, and these may remain after remission of sin has been ob- tained. During jubilees remission of the conse- quences of sin may be obtained by the per- formance of acts of expiation. During these periods the powers of the priests are enlarged or rather they are free to exercise their powers to the full, instead of being restricted in their exercise, as they are at other times. How «the year of jubilee ts to be specially observed is not yet known. Instructions will be promulgated from Rome, which will govern the observance all over the world. It is expected that on account. of the year ushering in a new century, the Instructions will outline an unsually pretentious ob- servance. : The jubilee will commence on Christmas 1899, and end on Christmas, 1900. The Pope's bull is as follows: Leo, to the Bishops and Servants of God} to all faithful Christians, salutation ané benediction: The proximity of the end of the century, which through the grace of nearly passed, bas decided ws to order action which will serve toward the salva- tion of Christian people and perhaps be the last act of our ministry. We wish to de clare that Grand Jubilee, instituted since ancient time, and which has come to us under the hameof Holy Year, whether be ' Toe year 1900 will be a jubilee year in because the condition of Rome is so changed. Let us bope, however, that God will gramt success for this our celebra- tion, undertaken only for his glory, wherein we desire nothing other then to facilitate that eternal salvation provided for the dis- éases of the soul in the remedies Jesus has placed in our hands.

The first of these engines, as a type, was more than satisfactory. Others have followed. The locomotives ehipped this year to Great Britain have been even more success- ful thah those previously exported, and there {is no little flutter among the manufac- turers there in consequence, The thing has become serious. The market for this pro- duct~is almost the entire civilized world, and Philadelphia has almost a monopoly of the exportation of locomotives to Mexico, South America, Wngiand, France, Russia, Sweden, Norway, Australia, Japan, China and South Africa. The export value of locomotives from the United States has increased from §2,560,- 000 in 1897 to a million more in 1898, and the promise for 1899 is that it will be perhaps $5,000,000. This is, however, but one of our iron and steel exportations, and the in- crease for this year in all of these products will be $30,000,000 above that of 189%.

Nt re! Types of locomotives in many parts of the world showing the American pre- dominance. States, in response to a very widely-ex- pressed desire for the existence of some organization which should represent all branches of inéustry, assembled in Cincin- mati and organized the National Associa- tion of Manufacturers, electing as the first president Thomas Dolan. After a year in the presidency, during which time the 4as- Fociation got a good start, Mr. Dolan was succeeded by Theodore C. Search. By the establishment cf a sample ware- house at Gaeracas, Venezuela, which now contains goods from nearly one hundred manufacturers, we have opened up what is practically a new field for American commerce. There is a trade in that coun- try now controlled by England and Ger- many amounting to $3,000,000 or $4,000,00) per annum which the manvfacturers of the United States will soon obtain. Ry the facilities provided by the ware- house in Caracas a very substantial por- tion of this trade is already being diverted. One of the very interesting results of this enterprise has been the building of a num- ber of American ( lagsy in. Venesuelua. Three of them have been finished at Ma- cuto, the chief seaside resort of that coun- try, which lies under the mountains that rise high above the coast just below the seaport of La Guaira. One of these houses was for President Andrade and the other two were for members of his Cabinet. Another important result of the Caracas warehouse has been the organization of @ large corporation in the United States for the construction of a cotton mill in Vene- suela. This company, recently chartered under the Jaws of New Jersey with « cap- : $8 oe. »- are 45 ere tire plant is now in China. This was the first woolen mill to be built in China in a region of vast commercial importance, and the placing of the contract in the United States was a great achievement for Ameri- can manufacturers, as there was fierce competition among English, German and American manufacturers for this work. the fact that it :s the first mill of its k’nd in the country adds greatly ta the sig- nificance of the undertaking. A few weckasago the National Association of Manufacturers received a cable dispatch from a well-known engineer in Helsingfors, Finland, asking for immediate quotation on a 200-horse power condensing engine. Telegrams were sent immediately to eev- eral of the leading engine builders, and thpir bids were submitted by wire to the en- gineer in Helsingfors. The contract was finally secured by a Pittsburg concern.

LOUIS PHYSICIANS. he THE CORSET. Its Evils and Bencfits Described by » Detractors and Partisans. HP Minister of Education of Saxony T has signed a decree forbidding school- girls to wear corsets. The Russian Minister of Public Instruc- tion has published an order that young ‘women attending high schools, universities and music art schoo'e shall not wear cor- sets. The Oakland Health Club of Chicago has indorsed the acts of both these officia's and has pledged itself to stop tight lacing.°* These three facts show that the war upon the coreet and its consequent destruction “of the most beautiful thing in the world— @ man’s mother—is being renewed in very TEST DISCOVERIES IN MEDICAL oCIE several millions in the last ten years is one of the terrible evidences of. the de- cline of stamina in American women.” Dr. Kellogg says that to compression of the waist is due— “First, downward displacement of the abdominal and pelvic organs, ahd numerous functional and organic diseases growing out of this disturbance of the static relation of the organs. “Second, lack of development of the mus- cles of the trunk, which by long compres- sion and disuse lose their functional ac- tivity, resulting in drooping shoulders, flat or hollow chest, sunken epigastr:um and straight epine. “Third, an ungraceful and unnatural car- riage of the body in sitting, standing and walking. “Fourth, tion, “The strong an abnormal mode of respira- and beautiful curves which to keep women in bondage who are seeking for deliverance from the weakness and misery from which a really healthy mode of dress might emancipate her.

Xi * if ne \7 es, i; / me high official! and that it is being ._ fought as it was never fought before. The Oakland Health Ciub has given out this emphatic official statement: “Tt is a known fact that there is more gickness among women than ever before. One ecarcely meets a healthy wcman. The corset represents a large measure of the responsibility of the ills to which woman is heir.”’ The Oakland Health Club suggests, Gre- clan costumes for women. The costumes ofthe ancient Greeks required no ‘‘fitting to corsets.”’ The Saxony Minister of Education pre- ecribes the mode of dress for school girls. The girls are required to wear a loose- fitting jacket or blouse, with a short, full, round skirt, loose at the belt. The Russian Minister of Public Instruc- tion offers no substitute for the corset nor concealment of the uncorsetted outlines. He confines himself to the decree. He only offers the explanation that he has spent much time in visiting girls’ schools, and records that the corset is ‘‘dis- tingtly prejudicial to the heaith of physi- cal development of the wearers.” Dr. J. H. Kellogg is one of the leaders of war against stays. Dr. Kellogg has a for- midable trail of titles which add weight to his words. He is a life member of the British Gynecological Society, member of the Societe d’Hygiene of France, of the American Medical Association, the British and American Association for the Advance- went of Science, the American Climatolog- fceal-.Society, the American Social Science Association and others. He is the author of a work on “The Evils of Fashionable Dress,’ that created a decided etir and a short-lived dress reform among women a few years ago. He has just now published @ work on the same question entitled ‘‘The Influence of Dress in Producig the Physical Decadence of American Women.” *3t is not -worth while to spend any time fn demonstrating that women are degen- erating physically,’’ eays Dr. Kellogg in his treatise, ‘‘for has there been a medical con- vention dinner within the last quarter ofa parry eat which was not heard the toast, Oman, God’s best gift to man and the ‘chief support of the doctors?’ “IT recently addressed an audience of 700 Women.

In the healthy, vigorous animal one observes that the head is held high, the neck and back strongly.curved, the limbs firmly set, and the whole expression indicates vigor and strength... The same is equally true of the female body. “An erect head, well-curved back, promi- nent chest, retracted abdomen, and firmly- set limbs are indicative of an energized carriage of the body which is characteris- tic of health. “The flat chest, posterior dorsal curve, projecting chin, protruding abdomen, are equally indicative of a relaxed and weak carriage of ithe body. “The spiritless and tired horse holds his head down; he lacks the vigor and dispo- sition to hold it up. “So the Woman who has been accustomed to the support of Stays finds herself, when without these means of support, as she says, as though she ‘would fall,to pieces.’ The muécles of tthe waist lack the ability to balance the chest and shoulders upon the hips: The weak-waisted woman can- not be cotnfortable except in a rocking or easy chair. The back must be supported. Consequéntly in sitting the muscles of the trunk dre completely relaxed, thus causing collapse of tthe waist and protrusion of the abdomen by the depression at the waist occasioned by the dépression of the ribs. “Health corsets are a device of the devil laid aside for a few weeks as during con- finement to bed from i!Iness. “The fashionable dressmaker proceeds to form the body and casts it in a mould as‘*a cucumber grows in a bottle. ‘We see in the enormous busts and bustles which fashion prescribes a poor at- tempt to cover up the uncouthness of form induced by the corset.’’ From al] this it will be seen that Dr. Ke logge has enlisted for the term of war in the anti-corset crusade. The stage is not without its anti-corset crusaders. Mrs. Leslie Carter never wears a cors:t in a stage gown. She says it de- stroys the lines of beauty and prevents grace of movement. Mrs. Minnie Maddern Fiske does not wear a Corset. There the question of individual becomingness arises. To the slim Mrs. Fiske and the lithe, graceful Mrs. Carter the corset is super- flUuous. With Lilian Russell and Pauline Hall the corsct might appear useful. There are apologists in high places here. There is Supt. Maxwell, for instance, who directs the destinies of the schoo's of Greater Now York, who thinks the corset not wholly bad. This is what he says: “If the svhoolgirls of Saxony are abusing the priviitege of the corset, and the Minister of FEdueation had the authority to forbid their use, his act is a proper one. I am not at all disposed to criticise him. There is no doubt that tight lacing is injurious to a growing girl as well as to a mature woman, but I think the dress reformers do not distinguish between coreet wearing and tight lacing. I am told by those who ought to know that a corset may be worn loosely without the least injury, and that It may prove a needed support. I am in- clined to that belief. No doubt the Oak- land Health Club women will look interest- ing in their Greek gowns. I cannot go far enovgh to say charming, for Greek draperies are becoming to very few women. It takes a Greek face to look well with a Greek gown, and few American women have Greek features. The Wertern women are courageous in their indorsément of the Minister of Education in Saxony. I shall be interested in the experiment. “No school official in America has the au- thority to forbid schoolgirls to wear cor- sets; our powers are only advisory. With that power every efficient superintendent has dicouraged tight lacing by seeing that the teachers instruct their pupils how to dress hygienically. Furthermore, there is a system of calisthenics in use in the New York schools that is compulsory, and that is impossible to girls who lace tightly. It seems to me purely a questicn of the dis- tinction between corset wearing and tight lacing.” i: = a 4 LOST IDENTI JROCAS.\ CENTER Atour “THE SEAT OF APHASIA 2 .

T is In the hot weeks of May that per- sons with an inflammatory tendency are most apt to develop acute inflam- matory rheumatism. Exposure while asleep chills the body and excites the rheumatic parts. The exact causation of rheumatism has never been definitely determined. We know that an excess of lactic acid is pres- ent in the blood in all cases, but whether this predisposes one to rheumatism has never been definitely determined. We know, hewever, that the chilli.g of the surface when the bodv is warm !s the prolific ex- citing cause. This is seen in the increasing numier of cases of: acute inflammatory rheumattsm which develops in the hot days of May and ear'y June.

VERY summer there are reports of i. numerous cases of sunstroke,.. A majority of these are really cases of heat exhaustion—in fact, so much so -that this condition has grown to be expected by the physicians and the masses. when ever we have excessively hot weather. Those who can remain at home in cool rooms, run no danger. But those who must go out and encounter the sun’s flercest rays. who perhaps must do manual labor, thus superinducing great bodily fatigue; those who are forced to mingle with great crowds (as shop girls or women who venture not only into suffocating stores, but into jammed street cars), and those who are ac- customed to rather ample indulgence of stimulants, must and should exert great watchfulness and care. Best of all in the summer is to take a cold plunge bath, the first thing in the morning. Hard as it may be to adopt this habit, when one has become accustomed to the subsequent exhilaration and bracing effect produced, it will never be abandoned. The pleasure of the bath itself is one of those healthy, manly sensations good for us all to feel; akin to the pride of a strong man in his strength, to the exultation of the victor in athletic contests. It has been found in the zoological gar- dens that polar animals bear heat better than those coming from the tropics. This singular fact is accounted for by the theory that exposure to cold increases the abso- lute vitality. a power of resisting all nox- ious influences, while the lack of cold tends to enervate. Another great factor in producing sun- struck communities is copious drinking of cold water, ice water, iced tea and beer that has been cooled till it is chilled. Men begin the day by drinking, and by the time they reach their business they are in a free perspiration. What is done? Do they sit down and cool off? Watch the space around a filter, cooler or hydrant and notice how many pass it by. In vain does the skin attempt to dispose of the excessive quantity of fluid. Perspira- tion increases thirst and the result is that all day long there is a race run between the skin and the stomach. The stomach can- not perform its function of digestion and assimilation with water being constantly poured in. In addition to this source of debility perspiration contains more or less saline constituents, and the loss of salt when one perspires profusely is not incon- siderable. The final result of all this (for Nature will brook no such disturbances) is the fainting fit, with which you are all familiar. The free usage of ice; rubbing with it, packing, rectal injections of ice water and the wrapping of the patient in wet sheet will recover ordinary cases. MEASLES, By Dr. G. E. Wilkinson of Alton. [come are two kinds of measles, the common and the German. The first is by far the most dangerous, The dis- ease is caused by infection either from the air or clothes, the infection being thus car- ried from, the ones that have the disease. The little scales that are formed by the disease being loosened float around in the air or the bad breath of the one diseased may be carried to some one else. The symptoms of the common measles are coughing and sneezing for three or four days, red eyes and the whole system tired and indisposed. This is followed by fever and eruption, the spots being scattered and not in groups, mostly at first on the fore- head and neck, but which rapidly extend over the entire body. The disease usually runs its course in two to four days. There is no regular cure. Bathing in warm water and hot drinks, with careful nursing, so as to prevent cold draughts, are the prin- cipal thing@® as if a cold is caught pneu- monia or quick consumption may result. German measles differs very little from the other kind, though it ts far less serious. The period of incubation jis shorter. The patient may even break out before he feels bad at all. Very little fever, if any. Is a part of the disease, The throat is usually sore. but this passes away in from 1 to 3 days. The distinguishing feature between the two diseases jis that the eruptions differ in that in the German the eruptions are in groups, while In the other they come out Singly. The cause and the treatment of the {wo kinds are the same. By Dr. John F. Grins‘ead. BAD breath is caused by a disordered stomach, and the general belief that decayed tbeth have anything to do with it is false. Every case will yield to proper treatment, and there is no breath so offensive that it may not be purged of all its disagreeable odors. Only those rem- edies are efficient which ‘will go to the seat of the troub:e. Anything that will remove the disorder from the stomach will work the desired cure. Of course, there are many Kinds of stomach @isorders and a dif- ferent remedy is required for each. Hence, it is impcessible to give a general prescrip- tion that will produce satisfactory resuiis in all cases. Each case must be treat«d according to its own peculiar symptoms, and the patient should seek the advice of his physician as to how he should proceed, CLUBS, LIKE DUELISTS.

The neurologist is a necess'!ty of modern club life Your modern high-pressure business man needs constantly the bést quality of ‘medi- cal, as he does of legal counsel to keep him out of trouble. Premature collapse is pend- ing with most of them, as it has overtaken 80 many, because of the way they live. The folly of tre day with men of affairs is to have no stock taking until after sanitaty bankruptcy, when relief measures are often futile. After a blood Vessel. has burst or become plugged, a tumor has formed in the brain or the reckless nerve strain his dé- veloped into advanced Bright's disease or sugar in the urine or other destructive dlis- ease has set in and sent thé patient pros- trate to bed it is often too late for sanitary salvation. .. If the foundation of a business man’s house cracks or a fire is discovered In his building, he loses ho time in calling in the architect or the fire department. If legal complications threaten he consults his al- ready retained lawyer, or even if his horse gets a little sick he has him promptly cared for, but his own carcass he neglects until he becomes helpless, and then some one else, as often as not, selects his physician for him. It may be a good selection or it may be an indifferent one. The selection 18 usually a matter of luck, pressing necessity or convenience, not often of business judg- ment. The kind of medical aid that many great men receive in grave and critical emergen- cies in their life history is often a source of strprise to the profession. They are often men of the most limited caliber and pro- fessional resource, sometimes not even reg~ ularly educated physicians. The vagaries of the elder Vanderbift in this regard, not to come nearer to the present time, may be cited as an illustration. Ordinarily the all-around family physician is not the only medical counselor a man of great business affairs should have. He stould have the advice and care of one ac- customed to estimate the 4strain of busl- ness upon the nervous system as well as upon the entire organism. and to adapt brains and nervous systems to the demands upon them. Conditions of existence under present business demands have greatly changed in American business and profes- sional life'during the past generation, and as all extensive and prudent firms have their legal advisers to keep them out of the meshes of the law, so all men of large af- fairs should be guided by medical counsel in the management of their own systems, and adapt.them to the conduct of their business affairs. The proper care of #he boss is as essential as the proper conduct of the business. The best part of-a busi- ness man’s plant is a properly cared for dl- recting head. There is great capital in a great strong caput capable of carrying the greatest burdens of business without break- ing. . The care of a business man’s head should not be Intrusted to @ surgeon exclusively or always to the man whose specialty is women and children. No reflection is hére meant on the family physician, who is the best of medical men, and indispensable to the home, ih spite of the morbid disposition to hunt out a specialist for every family ill.

It was not éxclusively the ice water nor the hearty. meal that Killed Gov. Flower. These gave his susceptible, overheated, ovérworked system a shock and caused the arrest of functions necessary to the main- tenance of orgahic equilfbrium and life. Though Gov. Flower “locked healthier than many; men he, was accustomed to méeting every day,” he was Strained to the utmost polmt of Brain’ and’ nerve endwur- ance when the blow came that killed him. Though it was not the ice. water nor the hearty meal that,killed him, they were not prudently taken, nor the fishing in the hot sun.. They. -were the last feathers on the oamel’s back. He had dottbtless often before drunk. copiously of ice water ahd eaten quite as heartily, when his powers of re- sistance to such eystemic shocks wé6fre greater. And he had-doubtless often fished in the hot sun “many a time and oft be- fore,” without a threatened fatality. . “Took at the tremendoue activity he has crowded into the last four years of his life and the responsibilities under which he has been résting!”’ exclaims Dr. Allen, his family physician. But he did not rest under his responsibilities. He “hud a eimilar attack the first year he,was Governor,” but he then had more resistance ind rerovered. But this time he was more tired than ever before. He “‘was tired and went for a little fishing and to rest” and the weather was very hot and oppressive. the broiling sun. He went for refreshment and drink and “the pitcher was broken at the fountain.”’ The golden cord was loosed, The heart nerve—the pne.mogastric nerve from the brain to the heart appears to have failed in its powers of innervation, accord- ing. to ‘his physician’s statement, and the vital organ failed in its furction of sending blood to the brain and biudy. He swooned away and never rallied. If he had there and then béen laid immediately prone upon the floor and skillfully ministered to (the He had fished two hours in record does not state that any physician was. immediately at hand) he might have rallied once again and the Inevitable might have been postponed yet a little longer.

If it not asking too much, please answer this re- quest in next Sunday’s paper on your doctor's page: I would Iike to know of a reliable tonic for a weakened condition of the heart and nerves, oc- casioned by neuralgia. Have been under a splen- did physician's care for some time, but am still an occasional sufferer. A OONSTANT READER. As long as you are under a physician's care we do not wish to answer your ques- tion in this column. Your doctor has studied your case, and can, therefore, give you the best advice. To the Editor of the Sunday Post-Dispatch. Would you kindly inform me through your medl- cal column what is the matter with me? I am unable to use one hand without making the same motions with the other hand, and sometimes my head involuntarily neds at the same time that my hands move. What is the cause? This condition has continued several months, and is there any remedy ? , J. This condition is due to the disease of nerves in the spinal cord (probably irrita- tion) and perhaps alsv to lack of nourish- ment. The best treatment Is the using of a ga'i- vanic battery twice a day, in the morning immediately upon rising and just before going to bed. In doirg this the one po’e of the battery is placed in the arm pit, the sponge inward, and the other pole is run down the entire arm, first one and then the other. In combination with this treat- ment a good tonic should also be used. The following is good, and can be filled by any druggist: R.—Iron and Quinine Citrate Sol. Grains 2. Strrchnine Citrate Grain 1—SO. Tal Des. Misce et Flat Pil. .No. one Dent. No, XXX. Both the electric treatment and the tonic should be kept up a month or five weeks. At the end of this time write again, telling how you are gett!ng along. This condition has continued so long that it might take a long time to rectify it. To the Editor of the Sunday Post-Dispatch. What is meant by ‘‘rational rest?’ A eat acientist says Roswell P. Flower would not have died had he taken ‘‘rational rest."’ What exer- cise is best adapted to a brain worker? WM. C. 8. Rational rest consists of three things. First, enough sleep (seven to eight hours a day). Second, diversion from work at night, and also one day a week, if possibile. Third, exercise: Bicycling or a good long rapid watk before beginn'ng the day's work, and the usage of dumbbells, with open windows, or entirely in the fresh air. HENRY S. FENDLER, M.

It’s a winding stream, ,ekirted on both banks by oak, walnut and ‘elm timber. There’s not a pool in its amber Gepth the Brigad'er doesn't know. It wae on the Deer Creek bridge that I met Edward Kogue Funston, the General's father, 62 years old, gigantic in stature, driving to town, and asked him if he would stand for a photograph. “I'll be darned if I do,”’ he roared in that etentorian voice that is famous in Kansas politics. “There are some out home,” ‘he added, “You go out there and help yourself.” At the Funston farmhouse, which is go completely bowered in young trees and ‘ehrubs that it is impossible to get a pho- tograph of it—I send an outline sketch~—a jgentie-faced lady with a low voice and the laweetest smile imaginable told me all about her boy; his ancestry, school daye, studies, tastes and -+habits. She is Mrs. Ann Eliza Mitchell Funston, quiet little mother of the quiet little hero of the Philippines. lt ie ie die i a a a The Fighting Funstons.~ eet it ee de a aan ee , Edward Hague Funston comes of a fight- ing English family. He was born in Ohio, has a colossal frame, and is afratd of nothing. He was a Captain in the Union Army during the Cjvil War and has been three terms in Congress. Funston married in 1861 in New Carlyle, O., Ann Eliza Mitchell, in the Mitchel! Ho- tel. Mrs. Funston is of Kentucky stock, a descendant of famed Daniel Boone, and on’ the Mitchell side is a fighting English fam- ily. _ Frederick was born tn the Mitchell House, \Two years later the Funstons moved to rege and Mrs. Funston remembers that ittle Fred could already pick out the A B ‘Cs on signs along the way as they trav- ‘eled, Allen County, Kansas; was then bare prairie ‘except for the timber along the creek bottoms, The: Funston farm of 20 lacres, highly cultivated, every inch of it, eae the house, with its pleasant surround- ings, have been brought out of the stark Prairie by a perpetual fight with nature. . The house is a one-story building of seven ‘rooms, painted white. Cribs, stables and leranaries ‘are beyond; an old grindstone, lwith one leg broken, lies on its side in the orchard. A forked pole stands near the south door, and the bell that summons he farm hands to their meals swings in the crotch. From-half a cocoanut shell, ung to the limb of a tree, a green vine clambers energetically. “There were only four rooms in the house when Fred was a boy,”’ said Mrs, Funston, looking out. over her domain. ‘“‘The other rooms were added as the family grew." There are five other children—James Bur- ‘ton Funston and Hogue Warwick Funston. ‘hg till farms nearby, and Ella, Aldo and ‘Edward Hogue Funston, Jri- who live at lhome and practically manage the household and the farm, , “Bped,”’ Mrs. Funston continued, “I don't ‘wee why there is sO much talk about him.

What he learned he remembered ‘well. His greatest delight was to get a little time off from his work to go fishing or swimming in Deer Creek. ‘‘Mhe little white schoolhouse down there, just on the edge of the timber belt—that’s where he went. ‘He never fought with the other boys, was never punished by his teachers. He was fond of reading, especially books on natural history, botany, mining, agriculture—very few novels. He wus in- terested in accounts cf wars. ‘Since he was 16 Fred has always sub- scribed to some humorous publication. He loves a joke,- but seldom makes one. “Fred graduated from the ‘high. school in Iola~I. remember’ he: took Spanish as an extra. Then he wert to ‘the State Univer- sity at Lawrence, but did not graduate. “In all his school days he never stood either at the top or bottom of his class. He was very quiet, and did not have much to do with the girls. l’ve been told that he never studied more than he had to. He bought a good many bocks and we have some here. “Indeed, the Funston home. is fairly over- flowing with them. “Fred concluded that it waén’t worth his while to finish his college course,’’ Mrs. Funston continued. ‘“‘The fact is, he wanted to travel, to see wild life and meet adven- tures. When he went to Colorado with a Government surveying party he took his Spanish ‘text books with him, and added to his knowledge of the language by talking with people out there.

Said die dial Funston next worked three months as a reporter on the Kansas City Journal, after which he took a desk on the Fort Smith, Ark., Times, a strong Democratic daily.. W. S, Murphy, its editor at that. time, tells this stery of a prank played by Funs- ton: “One @ay I was called to Little’ Rock to attend a consultation of stockholders of the paper. I named Funston.to act for.me in my absence. I arrived in Little Rock in the morning. .- Pretty soon came the morning edition of. the Times, LEvery- thing in it was. familiar—except a double leaded two column editorial headed. ‘Con- ecience vs, Coin.’ “I could scarcely believe myself awake as I read it. The writer apologized for the previous course of the paper. stated that the Times was and would be henceforth Republican; that it had been Democratic only for the money there was in it, and that conscience had outweighed coin in the scales. “I took the next train to Fort Smith, sweating blood.

Nettie Macomber was regarded with awe by her more timid playmates‘ for. the intrepidity she displayed, and that she cared more for field sports than for dolla was her birthright. Mrs, Shattuck did not undertake shooting in the field until after she was married, and Mr. Shattuck had been off on his annual fali:shoots several times before she accom- panied him. Her work with the gun really began six years @go, and. the little rifle shooting she had done’previously was only the slight beginning of her later practice. Mr. Shattuck is a true lover of the gun, and accounted one of the best @ehots in the Minneapolis Gun Club, He is the present holder of the Minnesota State champion- ship badge, which has been in commission 12 years. He won it two years ago, taking it to Minneapolis for the first time since it had been placed in commission, with a ecore of 43 out of 60. It was won from the St. Paul Gun Club September, 1897, in the annua) tournament held during fair week. That the shoot did not come off last fall was owing to the use of the grounds as a camp for the volunteers. The trophy will be up this year and the holder wins a premium of $5 from every contestant who shoots for it, so the loss of the badge is not an empty honor. The story of Mrs, Shattuck's hunting ex- periences with Mr. Shattuck, and the par- ties which often accompanied them, form an entertaining chapter in the life of an end-of-the-century woman, whose husband finds in her his best companion for the field and meadows. He wished her to shoot, first because she liked it, then because he want- ed her to shoot with him, Each new ex- perience is recorded in her diary, and while Mr. Shattuck is sometimes carried away by his enthusiasm to count a few more birds:to the day’s hunt than the number actually brought down, Mrs. Shattuck re- fers to her little red-covered diary and finds the record in black and white. Mrs, Shattuck’s reputation as a sports- woman might be the envy of many a skill- ful hunter. It has given her the right to hunt side ty side with her husband in the open field and on the duck pass, has won her the keen delight of a shat on the wing, has brought wild game fluttering to her feet, while the ‘dogs scurried over the field over the scent. of the bird that fell at a distance on the doubleshot. In her trim hunting sult of tanned rein- deer skin, knee length, leather leggins and soft cap, she presents an attractive figure in the fleld, and when she dons long rubber hip boots, she is as well equipped as the best for shooting over a duck pass. For her trap shooting Mrs. Shattuck wears the con- ventional skirt and shirtwaist, finding noth- ing more comfortable as a shooting suit. She is delightfully enthusiastic over her experiences and as modest as the legendary violet over her successes. Woman like, she had her early sensations of excitement when she caught eight of a flock of ducks flying low or heard the “honkers” coming up from the corn fields. But these qualities of the novice gave way to the assurance of the tried hunter, and none were calmer in the open boat than the woman who stood In the bow end and took steady aim overhead, She was sin- gularly favored by nature at the outset, for there was no need to overcome the timidity of the gun inherent in most wom- en. Mrs. Shattuck began trap shooting in 1894, going out with Mr. Shattuck alone for the enjoyment of the eport. They ued tin pigeons, and had the traps to: themselves fur their sport, until one day the president of the Minneapolis Gun Club happened to be present, and, attracted by the novelty of seeing a woman shoot pigeons, watched her game. He was soon convinced she was a shot, and she wae invited to shoot with the Minneapolis club. At that time there were 12 members in the club; now there are more than 200, of whom six are women. The influence of a woman at the traps has been one of the leading: elements in ‘the popularity of the club, and the women are quite as tonfident in their shots as themen. The weekly shoot is a matter of genera! in- terest In- the club now, rather than a de- sultory pastime. The summer of 189% she took part in her first tournament away from home, and in August, 1896, went with Mr. BShattuck te Chicago to participate in the Dupont trophy shoot. It was the first time she had seen live birds thrown from the trap, but. she made the remarkable score of killing:18 out of 2. Previous to this “experience ‘she had no idea‘how birds were handled from the trap. The Dupont trophy shoot was at that time the largest tournament ever held in the United States, whereas at present the honor belongs to the American Handicap, which has met at Elkwood seven years. The American Handicap is now considered the opening event. of the séason. However, the Dupont trophy is still in commission, and was shot for last week. In the shoot in which Mrs. Shattuck par- ticipated by invitation there were 13 shoot- ers. Mrs. Shattuck was entered by a group of 145 men; who complimented her on her skill and were willing to see her folléw the best shot in the traps. The event was memorable for its pleasant associationa, and Mrs. Shattuck was made much of’ among the visitors and members. “handicap, That same summer of 18% brought new honors to Mrs. Shattuck, for she partici- pated in the Fargo (N. D.) shoot and came out an easy winner. In the tournament of the North Dakota Sporte#emen’'s Association a handsome badge was offered to the wim- an making the largest score. Mrs. Shat- tuck defeated Mrs. Day, Duluth, but rea)- izing that a contest between women did not create a right feeling between sisters at the trap, decided she would take part no more in such events, and has since de- clined to shoot tn individual matches. The trophy for this tournament s a handsome badge, one of the most complete symbols of the kind ever gotten up. In its werk- manship it conveys a concise history of the event. A miniature gold gun hangs over a “dead” bird, in the center of which a diamond represents the shining mark, which all shots strive.to attain. The inscription “North Dakota Sportsmen’s Association" stands for the giver. Below hangs a swing- ing locket, surrounded by a laurel wreath, studded with ruby gems. The date, ‘'18%6,”’ is inscribed on one side, her monogram -in enamel on the reverse. The explanatory data is inecribed within. Suspended by a fine gold chain a trap shell in gold and onyx suggests the means to the happy end. Mrs. Shattuck wears the trophy. with a deal of honest pride. A month ago Mr. and Mrs. Shattuck re- turned from the Grand American Handicap Tournament at Elkwood, N. J., and the ova- tions she received on the journey home were a tribute to her skill gs a markswoman. She had won her title clear, for she wae the first American woman..to share in the prize money of the tournament. The sum of $33, which she received, stands for more than money value, for behind it is the record which brought ber into line with the crack shots of-the United States. Mrs. Shattuck’s reputation as a shot is even better known in the East than in the Weat. Last spring, a year ago in March, Mr. and Mrs. Shattuck made their first trip to Elkwood, N. J., to visit the American taking the journey in private train in company’with a party of hunt- ers, with B..8. Rice, Chicago, in charge. This was Mrs, Shattuck's first experience in so large a tournament, for there were 200 shooters atthe traps.° She made a score of 21 out of 3B. After the Elkwood handicap she visited Duluth in the fall, shooting two days and winning 8 per cent In the score. The prizes she won had a utilitarian value, for they were a silk dress, pair of shoes and an um- brella. Not long after ghe shot In a tour- nament in Eau Claire, prizes wore offered for women, and took t 7 Wis., where five. wert’ Mrs. Shattuck, her position and costume when shooting. This was her best live bird shoot, and cov- ered the 30 birds mixed with target shots. The recent Elkwood tournament, from which Mr. and Mrs. Shattuck returned a month ago, was the most gratifying of all. They left ‘Minneapolis April 3, and reaching Chicago, went directly to Watson's park for three days’ practice, as there had been no opportunity for live bird shooting at home,.and she had had no practice since the handicap of the year before. The first day she killed 14 out of 16; the second day 13 out of 15; the third day 20 out of &. Then her shoulder was painfully lame, as she had not carried a gun since the August previous. The August event had been a gun club tournament in which she scored 0 straight, beating out the “cracker jacks" of the club and winning a purse of $0, offered for worm. en.

He is not only ® the ordinary showman and trainer. } e has lived in the home of elephants— ndia: he has hunted them in the jungle, andled them from their infancy, and it “was from seeing their intelligent work in \Andia, in the lumber yards, the stone quar- ‘vies, docks and in the army, that the idea ‘Iguggested itself to him of training them Yor show purposes.

He claims to be the first of the modern elephant trainers. Before his time, he says, ' while elephants had been trained to work as ‘beasts of burden, as tiger hunters and car- _yiers, yet as a performer his attainments 'wvere limited to a very_few and ordinary ' tricks. | Lockhart was the son of show people, and a child he was brought up in the circus, “but when a youth he left it to enlist in the {British army. He was sent to India. The ‘elephant then, as now, was the chief re- Yiance of the army in transporting artillery over roads and through jungles, where - Jhorses would be useless. He was more im- © ressed. however, by the intelligence dis- ' played by the animals at work in the lum- ‘ber yards, and when his term of enlist- ment expired he bought two elephants, Jack » and Jenny, from a lumber firm on the out- it ekirts of Calcutta, took them to England and there trained and exhibited them. That was 17 years ago, and Jenny is still with ' bim. ._. The performances of his first pair of ele- spPhants were as nothing compared to the elaborate tricks his present herd does. tl They consisted of raising their legs at the word of command, changing from one leg mad of them, he would run you out of the tent.

He then decided to return to In- } Gia, procure a hérd of elephants and en- 'Jarge his work. He purchased six young elephants, mak- fing, with Jack and Jenny, eight in all. (fe took them to England, where, owing tto the change of climate, two of his new este died within a month after their arrival. He went to work with the re- maining six, however, and trained them .to tableau work, such as he does now, ,only that he has been constantly enlarg- ‘ing the scope of their acquirements every ‘year since. This constituted the first herd lot trained elephants ever placed on exhi- bition and working together as a herd, a@nd it etarted quite a craze in the old feountry for trained elephants, (“ockhart's present herd consists of five _@lephants, Romeo, Herry, Charlie, Nellie fand Jennie. They are considered the most highly accomplished trained elephants now before the public. His own story of ele- phant training, prepared especially for the ‘Sunday Post-Dispatch, follows: By H. Samuel Lockhart, Trainer. \HIPRE are several kinds of elephants, T and of each kind there are degrees of intelligence and varying disposi- tions, just as in the human family. "Tiidia there are three kinds: In What is gen- the Ceylon and the Burmese. The Burmese ‘elephant is by long odds the most intelligent fof the three. Why this is so I cannot say, Hut it is a fact well known to elephant hand- ders, just as people in different countries, ‘and in different sections of the same coun- try, differ in intelligence, The African elephant, both fn head and and has far less intelligence.

There is Nellie, It took me nine months word of command, while Harry caught on almost . Morning's training. Ls In handling an untrained elephant the first thing necessary is to study their char- acter and disposition. I have epent a Whole year in doing nothing but this.

On the other hand, Jen* nie, Harry or Charlie are ruled better by kindness, and a little petting, coaxing and treats of sugar will cause them to do their level best to please me, while whipping will have the opposite effect. There is much of the human in the ele- phant. If I were to whip Romeo for some fault he would stand perfectly quiet, and take his punishment without making a movement or a sound, On the other hand, if I were to give Nellie one blow more than she thought was coming to her, she would try to run away to escape further punish- ment. They aré jealous, too. If I pet one to the exclusion of others, the first thing I know a trunk will be shoved in between me and the favored elephant, as though the other would say: “Here, don't I get any of this?’’ ti eo “* pear iets i LD kK! 1S iey ° - , .

Having spent a year in fully learning the character of an elephant, I next begin ac- tive training. Cautiousnees is the dominant trait of the elepnant. They begin tu Ic.irn slowly, first to bend on their kneces, to lis down when told, te raise a foot, to climb on a barrel, etc. Their extreme caution causes them to first be fully satisfied that no harm will come to them. It is amusing to watch an elephant in the early days of training. They will go half way down and get up again; they will put one foot on a barrel, and finding it secure will put the other up very gingerly, letting the full weight come down very slowly. But after fully under- standing by repeated experiments that his master is not luring him into ambusn, he will finaNy repose implicit confidence ‘n tdm, and do anything required. My elé- 2.

It takes two years, including the first year of observation, to teach in elephant to do ordinary tricks. The first thing is to gain their confidence, and the next 19 make them understand what y)ua want. An ele- phant born in captivity, and in India they are born in the stables, just as horses are here, will not learn show tricks much quicker than a captured wild one. The sow tricks are so entirely different from ‘ne routine of work in the Jumper yards that it is like beginning all over again, Their ed- ucation is instilled gradually, just as with children, and is made easier ns’ the ele- phants learn the meaning of different words. It took me seven years to bring this herd to their present state of perfec- tion, and, I am always teaching them more tricks. They understand English thorough- ai ly and their new tricks I teach them mere- ly by talking to them. At first it is necessary to show the ele- phant what you want done. You must lift hiss leg, throw him dowh, at the same time say!ng the words which teil him what that act means: When he learns the words he will do what you want-on: being told to do so. When an elephant would make the sound: called trumpeting, I ‘would say “Speak.’”” Ther soon learned to associate the: word :-afid the’ no!se,’ so that any one of them will now trumpet when told to speak. They have learned so many words that by merely telling them what to do, I taught them three new tricks last winter in eight days. In teaching them to play brass horns the mouthpleces were placed in their trunks, and they were s:mply told to blow. The. elephant, 6o intelligent in all other things, seems to be unable to appreciate his own-immense strength and power of From Photopraphd Loaned by Me. Lockhart, 3. Jennie Showing Her Muscular Strength. 5. An Elephants’ Supper Party. 4, Romeo's ¥ resistance to man. This is explained fn several ways. I am told that man is #60 magnified in the eye of the elephant that we really appear to him‘'as big as an ele- phant is to us. Then-his. very intelligence makes him docile. The wild elephant when trapped finds his legs tethered with ropes he cannot break, and a cord about his neck chokes him and cuts deeper into his flesh as he makes futile efforts to escape. So it is that when once he recognizes he is mas- tered the elephant gives no more trouble, Supposing. he realizes that man js his in- ferior in strength, his intelligence, based on experience, tells him that man hae other means of punishing him, and he gives up the struggle. Then he recognizes in his master the one who controls h'm, who feeds him, pets him when good and punishes him when bad. If I were to whip any one of those animals they would either take it or try to escape, but not one would resent it. If you were to go in there and whip one 5 cents In American money. so that an animal eight feet high would have cost $400. This custom was based on the Idea that size and strength were the only ai- tributes. Since then, however, the value of character, training and intelligence has entered into account, and they are now sold according to value on these lines, in addition to strength. In this country an elephant 6 years old is worth from $1200 to $140. From that age to maturity they fncrease in value, and some 1f5-year- old are valued at $3000. An elephant reaches maturity at about years of age, and, in captivity in this country, they live to from 80 to 100 years. In their wild state they are said to lve 600 years, and there fs an elephant fn Cal- cutta, in captivity, which is known by the records to be 38 years oli. In Inaofa, as I have etated, elephants are bred in captivity, live in the stables till 6 years old, and are then broken to work more easily than colts are here. It is a fact, though very little known, that elephants will not breed in captivity tn the the West- ern Hemisphere. There have been instances of elephants being born in America, but fn every case the mother has been with young before leaving Indla. The trainer to achieve the best results has to use extraordinary patience. What would appear to be not remarkably diffi- cult tricks are sometimes the hardest to teach. It was comparatively easy to teach, two elephants to work 2 see-saw up and| down, but to have them balance it, and! stand still in midair, was quite different. It! took me two years on and off to teach them, that. I abandoned it several times, but took’! it up again, arid finally eucceeded. The ele- phant’s extreme cairtion was the obstacle. They were off the ground, and the footing seemed insecure, and it took a long time to inspire them with confidence tn the fact that they would not fall off. Another hard trick which I gave up fn de- spair over and over again, was teaching Romeo to walk on his hind legs. He ta the only elephant in the world to do this. I made him understand what I wanted, but it was difficult for him to do. He weighs three and one-half tons, end when he raises one foot to walk, that immense weight is all on one foot. It is not only the weight, but the difficulty of balancing it on the one foot, and while Romeo had every confidence in me, it is not surprising that he lacked confidence in himself, and was constantly in dread of a hard fall. The appetite of an elephant te rather « costly thing to his owner. This fe the dail- menu :* One bale of hay. One sack of bran. Half sack of oats. Bread, carrots, apples, etc. The cost of feeding a healthy elephant? averages $5 per day, and as he eats on Sundays and between seasons the “keep” of a herd is quite an item. HE American Museum of Natural His- tory has completed its collection of fossilized bones of animals that ex- « feted during what the geolog'sts call ‘‘the ‘@ge of mammals,”" an epoch of 30,000,000 years. e¢ One of the animals was 8 feet long; one - 7% ’ | - 2 Was 8 inches long. _., The hugest of the animals was the cam- ,@rasaurus dinosaur, which weighed 120.000 pounds, was 16 feet high at its hip and 8 Teet in length. Bight years of untiring search have been consumed in the completion of the col- Tection, a search that extended over Colo- rado, Wyoming, Kansas, Nebraska, Texas, Dakota and Pennsylvania.

From foot to knee joint his legs were 6 feet long; from foot to hip joint 16 feet long. He weighed about 60 tons. He lived ta be 860 years oi. His front teeth were 6 inches long. His appetite was literally insatiable; he ate every waking minute. Yet some scient- ists belleve he and his kind starved to death. His food was vegetable—nothing else. He was amphibious and roamed over the western part of North America, being par- ticularly fond of Wyoming, Colorado and Kansas. His period was what geologists call the Jurassic—some two million yvears ago. He was.peaceful tn disposition and habit, but he could put up a stiff fight, He was longer than two elevated railroad cars; longer than four ordinary trolley cars. By his side a man would look as big as beside a pug dog. his side the largest elephant would as big as a terrier beside a horse. ordinary carriage horse weizhs about »~0unds; this monstrous lizard about as as 110 carriage horses. Two field parties have searched gearched, searched for the buried fossils all the eight years. Where nature, in angry mood, had torn and furrowed old earth so that the rock-strata of earliest times were exposed there went a field party from the Museum of Natural History. To these fle'd parties the geologically fa- mous Como Bluffs of Wyoming, with their strata of the Jurassic per’od, have ylelded many specimens. And Colorado has con- tributed curtous and valuable spec'mens of the Titanosaurous Montanus, by which gen- eric mame the late Prof. Marsh described these monsters.

The com- panies seem to strive to provide as few cars aa can possibly carry the people. This ila a short-sighted policy. As long as the people submit to it the profits of the roads and of the gardens will be larger than they would be otherwise, for the roads will gave expenses ard the gardens wih sell more Deer, but the people may get tired of being crowded and imposed upon. If they- do they will seek relief and readily find other means of passing their evenings. Let a demand for out-of-door resorts accessible to pedestrians arise and they will spring up like mushrooms. Then the street rail- ways will regret their crowd-'’em-in-and- throw-"em-out policy, The reception given to Janet Melville and Evie Stetson last week when they made their frst appearance ih St, Louis since their return to the stage was cordial to a degree that is gratifying to the person who believes that women may be funny without being coarse, Both these young women are capital mimics, and in addition each has originality. They contrast effectively. Miss Stetson is broadiy humorous, while Miss Melville is keenly witty. They have a capital sketch, nonsensical to be sure, but amusing and well calculated to bring out their merits, Charley Case, the monologue comedian who was at the Buburban last week and the Columbia the week bofore, is of an in- tenseiy nervous temperament. At his in- itial appearance at the Suburban last Sun- day afternoon he fancied that the audience treated him coolly. He was so hurt by it that he retired to his dressing room and wept bitterly. He said he was “a dead one,"" and might as well quit the stage, and he made a donkey of himself after the fashion of supersensitive people. He re- fused to be comforted until the night per- formance, when the applause he got as- sured him that he was as funny as he hoped to be, Case is the best of the mono- logue artists eceamesiiede Kzra Kendall, and if = Ee ESMOND — Aes CANE -~ he can produce new “stuff” year after year even that exception neéil not be made. The concerts after the performance at Uhrig’s Cave during the Williams-Wein- berg season should prove a popular feat- ure.

Lawrence Hanley did a good business at the Olympic last week despite the warm weather. In the performance for the benefit-of the Young Men's Institute at the Olympic next Friday evening two clever and handsome St. Louis girls, whose pictures will be found this page, will appear im the balcony scene from “Romeo and Juliét.’’ Miss Blanche Alexander Benkéndorff will pay Romeo and Miss Eloise Freneh. will play Juliet. Both have had experience and a pleasing performance may be anticipated. They are considering a tour of the vaude- ville theaters in a sketch. Miss Octavia Straat, one of Guv Linds- ley'’s pupils, who piayed Fawn Afraid, the Indian maiden, in ‘‘The Girl I] Left Behind Me,” and Dora Prescott in ‘‘Men and Women,”’ with the Grand Opera House stock company, made such a good impres- sion in those widely different parts that Manager R. L. Giffen engaged her as a member of the company and she went to Denver with that excellent organization. Miss Straat, while under Mr. Lindéley’s instruction, played a number of parts de- manding versatility. Among them were Madeline in “‘Belphezor, tha Mountebank,” a role requiring great command of pathos; Juiiana in “The Honeymoon,’’ a high com- edy part, and Jessie in ‘*The’'Open Gate,” an ingenue. Miss Straat has many friends and they are please@ with her success. She is a niece of Lawyer John N,-Straat-of St. Louis and of Gen. DD. T. Kirby of Wash- ington, D CC. She is-young, finely edu- cated, and accomplished as a musician and vocalist. She has’ magnetism and in ap- pearance and method is of the Maud Adams type, as her charm lies, chiefly in. subtlety of expression, both of face’ and voice, and finished technique, qualities. that. always appeal to the cultivated mind. on Frang Eheltine of the Liliputians, whose stage name ig Franz Ebert, presente® him- self before Cierk John H.

R.—You can remove superfluous hairs with tweezers, but they will grow again. I do not agree with your informant that they will grow faster and thicker after having been pulled out. On the contrary, I have had several communications from a gentieman who assures me that by per- sistently pulling out superfluous hair with the tweezers each time they returned he in @ year permanently destroyed the growth. A Specialist Advised. A. lL. N.—The scrubbing brush will not cure the condition you describe. You should go to a good skin specialist. There are one or two who undertake to remove red veins from the nose and cheek, which are certainly a great blemish. For Hollow Cheeks. ANXIOUS.—Massage will do hollow cheeks than any other more for external il treatment. You should also be careful about diet; eat simply nourishing food, ab- stain from stimulants, get lots of refresh- ing sleep. I do not think I should use a liquid to darken the eyebrows if they will take the right shade from the pencil Get a dark- any department and brown Indian pencil at shop where toilet articles are sold, lightly touch the eyebrows, Properly used, this coloring does not show.

I know of nothing that will remove freckles permanently. Freckles are pig- mentary stains, and it is not possible to remove them without taking off the skin. The freckles will return upon exposure to the conditions that produced them. I witiied you a formula which is as good perhaps az any other for removing them temporarily: coarse powder, 12 2 ounces; rose Bichloride of mercury, in grains; extract of witch hazel, water, 2 ounces. Shake until the mercury Is dissolved. Mop over the freckles night and morning. Bi- chloride of mercury is a dangerous poison, and while proper to use as suggested, should be kept out of the reach of ignorant persons or children. Liquid Whitener. A READER.—I give you the formula for liquid whitener. I think it will improve the appearance of your face. From your letter I imagine you must be suffering from some internal disturbance. If this is so, you will not be apt to find any external applica- tion satisfactory until after the cause has been properly treated. One quart water (previously boiled and strained); alcohol, 30 drops; oxide of zinc, 1 ounce; bichlo- ride of mercury, grains; glycerine, 20 drops. Take 4 ounces of water and heat to boiling: dis- solve the bichloride of mercury in this hot water and add the aleohol. Mix the zine and glycerine in a bowl; pour the larger portion of the quart of water in: stir, then add all the diluted bichloride of mercury and aleohol. Bottle and shake always before using. Apply the liquid with a small, soft velvet sponge. The Scalp Needs Washing.

ALLS your hair. The scalp needs waching and ventilating, and it is absurd to suggest that dirt is ever helpful. The hair on one’s head is in many respects like a plant; it needs air, and it needs water, and it needs to be kept clean. You will not rot your hair by washing it properly. Try the shampoo with yolk of egg. which I give instead of the one you have been using. Pompadour rolls are heating, prove injurious to the har if worn.

Never trust to a cedar closet for keeping vaiuable woolens or furs. is a of care to do &0 One famous housekeeper had a cedir closet built into a new house, that was the envy of every woman who saw it—with its shelves and drawers all inclosed, with tightly fitting doors, that gave out such a delicious odor when the outer door of all was opened, and seemed to invite the care of everything most precious. That summer the first year she had owned the closet she packed her furs and went to Purope with an easy mind. Among other things in Ruasia sable cape of enor- mous size, and very valuable, waa put in the closet. When she reached home, opened her closet and took out her furs, she found that nothing had escaped the moths, and her cloak was such a mass of worms that it had to be buried at once. This is absolutely true, and many of the very best and most careful housekeepers now consider cedar really a moth producer, and cedar receptacies of any sort worse than no protection at all.

On one side of the coin will probably ap- pear Lafayette’s prayer for the United States (about 40 words), and on the other, probably the faces of Washington and La- fayette, and perhaps those of Lincoln and Grant also. President McKinley was in- vited to appear on the coin, with his four eminent predecessors, but resolutely de- clined. Paul Bartlett and Karl Bitter are expected to offer competitive designs for the sculptural part of the monument, and it is expected that there will be something ready, either in permanent material or in staf, which can be unveiled on July 4, 1900.

He calls it “The Ap- proach of Winter,” and away back, as far as you can see in the picture there is ev!- dence, in an almost indefinable way, of the beautifying, mellowing touch of autumn. On the left is a row of low sheds, behind which runs a faintly marked road and on the right a peasant in short sk'rt and gray- hooded cape sits on a hiliside with her flock scattered about her. A beautiful sheep picture (painted by He- berer in spring time) and owned by Mreé. Millikin of Belt avenue, was one of the most admired paintings at the exhibition, whife two views of the Seine from an _ elevation were also criticized most favorably.

Sweet Girl Graduates. HIS seems to be the banner year in the history of the fashionable schools of St. Louis.

A huge tarpaulin was stretched ( n the level lawn and a band of musicHins stat’oned behind a bank of evergreens. in another worner of the grounds a gaily decorated tent, made of flags and ribbons, was occupied by a palmist, who added a great deal to the general enjoyment. The receiving party. including | Mr. and Mrs. La Prelle, Miss Esffie La Prelle and Mr. and Mrs. Charles Ernest Chapman, were stationed at the far end of the lawn, while the junior class girls, as hosts, were detailed to care for each new arrival. Dancing was, of course, the feature of the entertainment,* but during the evening there was some jolly chorus singing and not a few flirtations going on. Miss La Prelle, who is an pretty and bright girl, was gowned in French organdie, trimmed w:°th lace, bon and clusters of bias tucks, As to the young people present—oh, well— all of the younger set in society were asked, each girl being allowed the privilege of inviting a young, man. : Among those whto attended were: M tyes Misses Irene, Becker, Nellie Bond.

In Honor of Their Guest. HAT must have been a very pretty | little affair which Misses Ida and Eva McClellan gave Monday after- noon In honor of their guest, Miss Fisher of Brooklyn. The drawing rooms were beautifully decorated with plants and flow- ers of all varieties, and each guest, upon her arrival, was presented with a dainty boutonniere After an hour of general conversation, ecards inscribed with a list of 10 questions, each to be answered by the name of a flow- er. were distributed, To the guests giving the greatest number of correct names prizes were awarded, The first, a huge bunch of Daybreak carnations, was won by Miss Marguerite Gibney, and the second, a big bouquet of marguerites, Was captured by Miss Irene Forster. At 5 o’clock some delicious refreshments were served.

She said: “I am laboring against three evils primar- lly, with secondary evils to fight by the score. Flesh, alcoho] and coffee are the worst enemies of health and good morals. ‘Meat and coffee do as much to corrupt good morals, to promote ill health and all attendant sorrows as the strongest alcohol ever fermented.

LOUISAN | vw WHO KNEW HER IN MEXICO -* Pe Princess Salm-Salm, born fn Philadelphia pow a resident of Vienna, has recently been fn Washington seeking a copy of her lost a certificate. Her busband is dead and the ss - cate was needed in the settlement of his estate. Ghe was known to @ number of St. oe e@mong them Attorney Enrique Parmer, - written the following concerning her history: To the Editor of the Sunday Post-Dispatch: ' RINCESS SATM-SALM’S visit to the Inited States recalls some interest- ing bits of personal history. Agnes was born and reared in Canada, gga parents until where she resided with her ttaimed the age of 15. cs six years prior to our Civil War @ wealthy relative, childless and quite aged, adopted her and gave her a princely home at Philadelphia. Here she wae educated, and the love and care of her adopted par- ents was amply repaid by the most ardent affection that a grateful child could lavish upon them. In the meantime she made rapid progress in the useful and fashion- able accomplishments of the times. Later, without a word of explanation, we find this adopted child abandoning her stu- dious life and connecting herself with a well known theatrical company, and later on accepting a position as a horseback per- former in a famous circus, then exhibiting in-our large cities. The influences oper- @ting upon her mind to forestall these un- accountable inclinations, we are told, were useless and futile. She saw her own way tiatked out and went etraight on. She aimply drifted away from her early moor- ings without motive on her part, or even @bility to resist the impulse that impelled the step. She went out from the home that @heltered her, which was desolate without her, and that is all we know of ft. This episode in her life was not forgotten by those envious of her talent and general popularity. Some time in 1862 this young lady abandoned the vocation of circus rider, @gain appeared in the Quaker City and made a second debut into the fashionable circle of that staid old town. The elite did not take kindly to the eccentric debut- @nte, which action she was quick to ob- serve and quicker to resent in her open, de- fant way. It is not improbable that the seeming reserve of her former set directed and shaped her future conduct; for the game year she was introduced to Wash- ington society, where her dashing manner and brilliant beauty won to her side many of the most gifted men of the then gay capital. There she met Prince Salm-Salm, and in a few short months the twain were gnarried. The wife went to the front with her hus- band and remained there until the Appo- mattox surrender. The Prince was mus- tered out as a Brigadier, with a good record for gallantry, while the Princess was re- membered for her ministration in the hos- pitals, her social qualities and her sympa- thetic nature. . . > * = * e The Austrian Prince, Maximilian, having been called by the church party to Mexico, Was then menaced by the probable aban- onment of his empire by Napoleon, and, anxious to organize an army of his own, invited ambitious men of all nations to his standard. Salm-Salm at once espoused the cause of the Hapsburg, and at once went to Mexico. His wife followed in six months. The Empress Carlotta, one of the noblest end most accomplished ladies of the age, welcomed the Princess with all the honors accorded the wives of Princes, while Salm- Salm had already won his way to an im- Portant position in the army of the empire. As may be presumed, the newcomers were gharply scanned by the social leaders of court society. There were some things in the Princess’ caree* difficult for the aris- ocracy of the capital ic- reconcile. She ‘Indepeudent, and sorned the forms and ceremonies of the nobility. It ts well known that efforts wer made tO prevent a gracious reception at the pal- ace, and the Empress was implored to drop the name of the Princess Salm-Salm from her list of guests. It is but just to state that every effort at detraction re- colled upon the promoters, the Princess Signally triumphing, as she did in other Hlelds of personal endeavor. The capital: was at that time overrun With strangers, officers, adventurers and @tmy followers. The people were uneasy @nd alarmed at the movements of the dip- lomats. The old bi‘terness between the French and Germats cropped*out on many occasions, endip, in personal encounters @nd more ap’agonism, As the Freach between Marshal Bazaine @nd Ma*imilian widened, so did animosi- ties in ‘the lower circles increase. It was, eveb-oefore the departure of the expedi- tionary corps, determined to geacrifice the Emperor. The flery Frenchman was eager to wipe out any fancied or real insult to his flag or Emperor. Salm-Salm was drawn into these profitless contentions, Dut was never forced to a conflict upon Later on, however, a decidedly sensa- tional incident occurred, which was only one of many more sanguinary in termina- tion. It happened that Salm-Salm was bent on a mission to a distant part of the empire. The Princess at all times visited hotels and public places with impunity when business required her to do so. She generally had an escort, but when the call was urgent in the interest of her husband she did not wait, but started out unattended. She dare not rely upon a@ messenger in those dan- gerous times, A message was, on a certain day, to be carried to the Iturbide Hotuwl, and: as it was one from her husband, and of supreme importance, she concluded to be the bearer herself. And as ehe swept through the main entrance of the hotel, her free ingress was blocked by a group of French officers; and as she attempted to pass to the left of the group, an officer, not in high repute among his comrades, exclaimed in an of- fensive tone: ‘‘Whoolla'’—a term familiar to all circus people, and then laufhed de- risively, as though he had accomplished a brave deed. This reference to her early life in this pubilc place was exceedingly mortifying to the lady, but ehe made no reply, and hav- ing finished her errand rapidly, retraced her steps. She waited patiently for the return of her husband, conscious that the insult would be wiped out at the point of the sword. But government duty prevented the hus- band’s returh. Nor were any of the Prince’s brother-officers in town at the time. There was a physician from Ala- bama sojourning for some weeks at the Iturbide. He had been with Longstreet during the civil war, and was a curious spectator of the situation in the Mexican capital. Dr. Haze] did not admire Prince Salm- Salm in the least, but, when he learned that the lady so grossly insulted was an American, and that no one had come forward to resent the wrong, he cool- ly sent a challenge to the offend- ing officer. The Frenchman was a splendid shot, and the plucky American was eager for fight. ‘Diversions of this kind were winked at by the police, and the populace welcomed the prospective duel with delight. But the excited multftude were doomed to disappointment, for an hour before the appointed - meeting the modern Gaul put aside his Derringér and decided to apologize. This was the last insult of this nature the Princess received in Mexico. In connection with this episode let me finish here the after event. In a little village on the Prussian frontier during the Franco-Prussian war an Amer'!- can correspondent stood anxiously contem- plating a departing detachment of Ger- man officers and surgeons. The gay and somewhat warlike company were mounted and just moving out of the innyard, when a lady, one of the group, leaped from her horse and with a bound reached the cor- respondent, threw her arms around his neck, and, with a hasty exclamation of sur- prise and delight, kissed him. The occur- rence, 60 unuéual in that circle, produced a brief glance of wonder, if not disappro- val, from her companions, and puzzled the spectators not a little. impetuous lady bore a commission from the German monarch to serve in the corps of surgeons, and was the wife of Prince Salm- Salm, the intrepid officer who a few weeks subsequently fell while gallantly leading his regimeni in a hioody skirmish with the French, And the correspondent was the Dr. Hazel who figured in the Iturbide incident some yea7s before. But let us drift back again to Mexico. Tre Princess was enthusiastic in praise of the Emperor, and was ever ready to de- nounce Napoleon and Marshal Bazaine. When Maximilian moved his army to Queretero the Prince was assigned a com- mand which operated in that vicinity. .His wife remained in the capital. The Emperor scarcely knew whom to trust, but” e trusted the Princess and her husband im- plicitly. The French had evacuated the country, and that event encouraged the Liberala to increased activity. In a few months they swarmed through every road surrounding the capital, captured many minor outposts, and at last beleaguered Queretero itself. . Then a vast army, under Escobedo, laid siege to that city. Skirmishes and sorties were of daily occurrence—all resulhkting in the discomfiture of the besiegers. But there were ten outside to one within the walls. Moreover, the Emperor’s troops deserted by companies. Treachery tri- umphed over bravery and discipline, and money purchased what the Liberals falled to effect, the capture of the entire im- perial army. Sixteen thousand dollars was the purchase money paid the modern Ju- This impulsive and | das for his part in the infamous transac- tioh. About the middle of June, 1867, a courier brought to ,the capital the intelligence that Maximilian and his generals were to be tried and executed, The Princess Salm-Salm with character- istic spirit and courage determined to pass through the lines and go to her hus- band. Marquez, the butcher of Tacubeja, re- fused her a pass, but that did not deter her in the least. “T will go to Queretero and save my hus- band if I have to run the gauntlet of Lib- eral bayonets and Imperial bullets from this city to the walls of Queretaro,” ex- claimed the brave woman. That wae not an idle boast. Mounting her horse she rode rapidly to the city limits, and, with a pock- et handkerchief elevated upon her riding- whip, as a flag of truce, she dashed boldly across the lines, amid a shower of Imperial and Liberal bullets, and was escorted a prisoner to the headquarters of Gen. Diaz. Armed with a safe conduct from the Lib- eral commander she hastened without an hour’s rest ‘and arrived travel-worn before the gates of the captured city. The trial of the Emperor and his generals was finished and the death sentence pronounced. She sought the, headquarters of Escobedo and obtained a permit to visit her husband and the Emperor. Her presence seemed to elec- trify the royal prisoner and his generals. She at once suggested a plan of escape, but the plan was deemed too perilous. Failing in convineing her friends of its feasibility, she, with Senora ‘Miramon, journeyed to San Luis with the object of appealing for the pardon of her husband and the life of the Dmperor. The Indian president did not so much as speak to the Senora Miramon, but gravely told the Princess that he would spare the life of her husband. He then added: ‘All the powers and potentates of earth could not save Maximilian. It is not I who takes his life, but the people and the law.” That night she started for Queretero, and when there, this determined woman again insisted upon saving .the condemned men by passing them through Escobedo’s lines and escaping to Vera Cruz, The plot was ripe at last, and, the means: at hand, but on the. eve of suecess the Hapsburg re- fused to be a party to the attempt, and thus the last hope of rescue was frittered away. The Princess had apparently been tampering with some of the Liberal of- ficers, for on the day succeeding the con- templated rescue she was peremptorily ordered to quit the city and State of Quer- etero. An escort of lancers led her beyond Escobedo’s lines, and she was warned not to attempt to return. Alone and on horse- back, she proceeded through a country swarming with guerrillas and brigands and after running the gauntlet of many perils again entered the capital, warmly wel- comed by hosts of friends and sympathiz- ers. Maximilian, Miramon and Mexia were shot to death on the 19th of April, and from that day on the Princess was unremitting in her efforts to obtain the pardon of her husband; finally succeeding. As long as she remained in the country she did not abate one jot in her devotion to the Emperor, The Prince was not less zealous; and/while a prisoner at Oaxaca, he addressed a note tc Lopes, the betrayer of Maximiliah, proposing a hostile meeting at any time near his prison. As may be presumed, Lopez declined to be shot at. The loyalty of\Salm-Salm and his wife were extolled by enemies as well as friends, and the Emperor affirmed his apprectation of their worth by mentioning them in his will, They were also delegated to bear the bequests and last words of Maximilian to his mother and his brother, Francis Joseph of Austria. Salm-Salm was in) due time banished from Mexico, the wife having la- bored for months to effect this object. She was on her way to Vera Cruz when the news came to her; so the brave woman, who had surprised all by her courage and persistency, was at last rewarded by this unexpected triumph. : The old, smile of the happy days of the long-ago returned, ‘the firm lip quivered and eyes melted into tears in her supreme happiness. Together the reunited pair journeyed to Vienna, and tater to Berlin. As before in- timated, the Prince again entered the army of William, and fell fighting at the head of his regiment. Hig wife was not far from the field, and rode through the hail of shot without turning to the right or left. But she was too late, the gallant spint had fled at the moment the leaden messenger went on its mission of death over that bloody hillside. And later om eway from the din of war, the wife carried the warrior and husband and laid him down beside his fathers—the heroes of olden time—and stood with face white as the snow et her feet, the most stricken, the most inconsolable in that vast concourse of relatives and mourners.

'BEFORE Dt medical profession. ——7 | ¥ » aim fo 3 » a s “ ‘ — sustains the system. endorsements, portraits, etc., free. —--+-- The law or the court, of course, and in fact, is the tribunal which determines the case, and fixes the grade of defectiveness, which is called insanity. It is not left to the If the medical expert, in a certain case, differs from the court, his opinion does not hold, the ceurt’s prevails. As I say, he sometimes appears badly, attempts to ve a definition, which will hold within its limite all the kinds and grades of mental defectiveness, or to de- scribe it, im the particular case, as a fixed condition. His most valuable testimony of- ten lies in his being able to anticipaté by his experience and knowledge, a greater degree of defectiveness to follow, and to advise that the’ court interfere in time to arrest further progress of the malady, or to prevent harm being done to others when the man reaches a worse stage. After: the patients are in the hands of the physician in the hospital by the order of court, his opinion then prevails, he then decides when they have returned to a suf- ficiently high degree of mental abilities to be allowed to go at large again. The matter of dangerousness largely en- ters into the question of wage It was the feature that first drew the States’ at- tention to the insane, and wihout, I ques- tion whether anything \ike as much would ever have been expnded upon them. Public safety combines with public sentiment to render the appropriations for the insane much larger than for any other class. The popular idea of an insane person Is, one who is a menace to himself, to property, or to the peace and welfare of others. And it is not improper to make this feature a mark or test’ in our descriptions or defini- tions of insanity, particularly when the object for which the investigation is made is to restrain the person in a hospital or sorne other way. There are two elements of character in mental defectives, which prominently and practically drew the law’s attention to the consideration. of their cases, and the State to take charge of them; the one is delin- quency, the other is dependency. When 4 man is so defective that he is a menace to principles of decency and propriety, or the well-being of others, he is a defective de- linquency; when he is so defective he can- not care for himself he is a defective de- endent. The State takes charge of defect- ves of both these classes. ‘Delinquency, actual or threatening, the principal feature in insanity, and think it would be well to limit the térm in- sanity to those defectives in whom the de- linquent feature is the most prominent one, This is easily understood. This would make the term insane apply to those persons who have reached such a grade of defectiveness that the state has to take charge of them and in whom delinquency is more prominent than dependency. These ought properly to be the only inmates of the insane hospitals; those who are dependents, like harmless dements, imbeciles and idiots, should be kept separate, in Institutions prepared for is em. Mental defectives are found In greatest numbers in the extremes of society, among the Cogeneraieg, Ia and the already de- generated poor, The causes that lead to de- generacy prevail more among these than aenang the industrious, healthy ‘‘middle- class.”’ There {s another matter relating to de- linquency, that has attracted a great deal of attention. If a person has committed a crime, a high crime particularly, the state generally assumes the attitude of resisting the plea of insanity, introduced for the pur- pose of relieving the party from punish- ment, and sets back its definition of in- sanity to a much more extreme degree of defectiveness than for any other purpose. For fear of abuse of the privilege, the law, in this particular is, in the opinion of the medical profession, often much too conser- vative, and necessarily definitions of what constitutes insanity, on this account, have differed greatly and been quite inconsistent. Much of the inconsistency grows out of the attempt I have been mentioning to give an exact definition, which shall apply alike to all cases called insane, and to the necegsity which afterwards arises of altering this definition rather of taking different levels or differant grades of defectiveness, to which the term insanity shall be applied, aiccording to the different cases, and the different courts, asg well as the different purposes for which fnvestigations are made. It has always been the case that a much more extreme grade of defectiveness has been defined as insanity, and has been re- quired to be proven, in order to absolve a person from punishment’for crime, than for any other purpose—for high crime particu- larly. The cause of the criminal insane is when for the convenience of the court, he. | household.

Beware of imitations. progressing, however, even along this latter ne At first,"we may say, no person was ab- solved from the penalty of the law for high crime on account of insanity or any grace of defectiveness.’ If'the crime were com- mitted the ax fell. Then, as advances in peychiatry were made, the corcession was granted that the rson would be declared irresponsible if t were proven that he was so defective at the time he did “not know: what he’ was doing;’’ «meaning that he had no knowl- edge of hist act, that there: was mo con- scious intenticn-in. his act and he had. no memory of it afterwards,:which is an ex-~- tremely low test.’ The working of this test in time } bh gen | assumed “the know!l- edge of right and wrong’ test. Knowl- ra of the ‘“‘character of the act” involves, in its higher phases, knowledge of its right- ness or its wrongness. This test has held its ground a. long time. Strictly construed, “knawledge of right and wrong,” is a very extreme test. The degree of mental defectiveness is very great, in which the perecn is not able to know or appreciate that the act he is doing is contrary to public opinion or to State law. There are few patients in our hospitals who have no “knowledge of right and wrong.” The “knowledge of right and wrong” test is a test of the intellectual ability of a person, of his being able to know or un- derstand the law when told him, and re- lates solely to his degree of intelligence not to his moral ability to observe the law afterwards. Moral disability, except when it is obliterated by intellectual disability preceding and excelling it, has not been granted at all, until of late years. Bven now, it is very much questioned and de- nied, by both the oer ane the lega§ pro- fessions. If the man % mental ability to know the character of the act te is doing and that it is “wrong,” that it is forbidden by public opinion or State law, and has mental ability to appreciate the certitude of the punishment to follow his do it, only of late years has: it been granted at all, that there are some cases in which the person is separately defective or more defective, in his moral ability than in his intelligence, so that he is not able to hold from doing the wro act. The medical profession have usually been those to as- sert that there are such cases, although they may be infrequent and extreme ones. We ‘have cases in our hospitals, and we think they exist in the courts and in the penitentiaries. We only insist that there are such cases. Whether they shall be,.on this account, absolved from the penalties of the law, or not, is not our question, it belongs to the courts. It is true, there al- Ways exists some defectiveness of the in- tellectual abilities in these cases: they have passable intelligence, but their weak- ness, or obliquity, or lack of “moral sense,"’ is greater than most of their inta@lectual sense. The ‘“‘recidivists’ of our courts are largely of this class. They are constantly relapsing and brought into court, notwith- standing how frequently they are punished, yet their intellectual disabilities would not send them to an insane hespital. Moral or ethical abilities are the latest, as well as the highest, attained in the evo- lution of the excellent man, and are the most delicate to be held on to and hardest to be maintained. In the loss of mentality they are generally seen to go off first. Many a man, high in church or state, has first shown his beginning . mental defec- tiveness by a weakening of an obliquity in his ‘“‘moral or ethical sense.” He was Bow lite, or decent, or peenaant, than he had een, and it increased as his brain malady rogressed; in some cases he has shocked is friends by doing some grossly improp- er thing, sometime before his progressing defectiveness, or brain disease, was ap- parent in his losa of intelligence. Both in.law and medicine we often see the statement that delusions are a sign of insanity. If a man has an opinion, idea, or notion, which is obviously incorrect to the intelligent persons around him, and if he hold to it notwithstanding efforts are. madé to correct him in it, it may be said to be a sure sign of mental defectiveness, and it may not be sufficiently grave to be called insanity, sometimes is not. Per- sons have delusions, some of them silly and absurd; who would not be called insane. When his delusion is of a character which renders the person dangerous or trouble- some, it determines the grade of his de- fectiveness to be insanity. It is always, however, a sign of defectiveness, whether of an insane grade or not. Men, who are otherwise of excellent mental ability, have shown delusions, and because their delu- sions did not render them objectionable members of society, they were never pro- nounced ingane. aS ee HE ills of women conspire against domestic harmony.

Which Classes a Person as a Possible Inmate of His Institution. Dr. James T. Searcy of Tuscaloosa, Ala.. author @f the following articie, was for many years Pres- fGent of the Board of Trustees of the Alabama Monpital for the Insane and for eight years has Beem Euperintendent of that institution. By Dr. James T. Searcy. HERE are all kinds of mental defec- tiveness in society. They range from slight peculiarity and feeble-minded- Bess ail the way to insanity and idiocy, with every conceivable variety tntervening. In- Geed, this fact is so generally recognized that we all have an Instinctive habit of es- timating and grading the persons we meet in respect to their mental defects, as well as thelr excellences, with even more concern and personal interest; and there is always @ current or under-current, of social ex- change of opinions in these matters. It is stonishing how widely the range of de- tiveness is found to extend. Knowledce of the universality of criti- ¢lam and the harm a reputation of defec- tiveness brings leads persons promptly & ners, ec them to ass with others; n iu or faulta, and je and assert their equality t “all men are equal, ons. The rule Is ti of y of to repel tions of thelr mental weak- leads and earried further, even to tain the generally popular proposition * to which rule @nly the extreme cases of defectiveness are . in polite soctety, must not be made of the defective sistencies in the philosophy of the day. It crops out even in the constitution of the United States, and it pervades many pro- fessions, practically those that relate to conduct and character, and, as in psychiat- ry, to mental abilities and disabilities. Under this le and custom, the man holds “the right’’ of assuming as high & stand as others, or an equal] stand with others, until the contrary is publicly proven, If not convicted of a crime jn court he has the right and privitege of claiming his in- nocence, or even of claiming a generally innocent character! if he is not shown to be bad he can claim to be good. This same practice is injuriously carried over into psychiatry, where, as a’ part of the business, it is necessary to know the facts of the case and often to aasert them. This polite, politic or legal custom of granting that only the extreme cases are the defective ones, leads to the assumption and largely the admission, that there are no other grades or kinds of defectiveness aboye or outside of the extreme ones. In the courts, it is often demanded, on the basis of this principle, that a verdict or an opinion @ehall be given either in one or the other of two sets of terms, either the man is “sound’’ or ‘unsound’ mentally—he is either “sane’’ or “insane’’—categorically answered without any mention of grades or degrees. On the same principle that he must be “either guilty or not guilty,” he must be either “‘ingane’’ or ‘“‘sane.”’ This ractice, too, leads to the habit of describ- ng insanity as a condition with limits and “border lines,”’ or of confining it within the ® specific ‘‘dis- | is * and the point to be determined 5 we gy is extreme enough to be pro “insanity."’ hs “defectiveness” is a - a in reference to cerebral or me dness than dis- ease. The word all the conditions duce insanity.. Me its shades and grades structural defectiveness, “he ‘abention arises, where is the level in the scale of our estimates, below which “unsoundness” or ‘‘defectiveness becomes insanity? Or where is the prescribed limit or “border line’ set by publi¢ o inion or State law within which the defective is ll meane? , corhe onions profession have always in- sisted upon there being grades in mental defectiveness, and of late years have grown more and more emphatic in their asser- tions to this effect: while the clerical] and legal professions have, as a rule, been con- servative and reluctant to admit them. The one is largely engaged in forming prunitive public opinion, and the other in enforcing penalties of State law. Within our hospitals there are no two pa- tients alike, and = al] are “insane” ac- cording to law. The nearest approach they make to eimilarity is when they come near- est to having lost mentality.
