One of the most remarkable women of the century is dying. She was a power for good and the embodiment of activity when other women were listless and idle. Only two members of her sex preceded her in her chosen field of work. Both of them are forgotten by this generation. The name of this woman has been a household word for 30 years. She has had a greater number of in- teresting experiences than almost any other woman in this country. Many of them, told by herself, will be published in to-morrow’s Sunday Post-Dispatch. What do you think of a man erecting a monument to himself? He is a confirmed infidel. He does not raise this monument that he may be glorified, but that the prin- ciples in which he believes may be per- @Manently eymbolized to the world. fee his story to-morrow. Our hearts will biossom with gratitude as we lovingly remember the brave men upon whose brows Death with fleshless hands has placed the laurel wreath of fame.-—Robert G. Ingersoll in to-mor row's Sunday Post-Dispatch. Another American beauty is to become a member of a royal household, the mistress of a palace. She is a gir] whose family had the hum- blest of beginnings, but whose relatives have won fame and who igs possessed of great beauty. Her courtship was a genuine romance. The man she is to marry did not go galli- vanting around hunting for a girl with a fortune. He had the fortune and found the girl by accident. The full story will be told in to-morrow’s Sunday Post-Dispatch. Missouri has some of the banner etraw- berry counties of the United States. The season is just now opening up well. In to-morrow’s vaper you will learn more about strawberries than you ever dreamed of before. The same about yachting. The race of the century will be run in October. The two yachts which will contest for the America’s cup will be launched in June. You will want to know all about them, for Sir Thomas Lipton is going to give Mr. Iselin the race of his life. Both yachts ~ will be fully described in to-morrow’s Sun- @ay Post-Dispatch. No words from the lips of an orator Are so significant as the tear that steals down the face of a mother as she lays a wreath on the grave of her dead boy. ~Rev. J. W. McKittrick in tomorrow's Sunday Post-Dispatch. , . If you are up on siang you know what “hot air’ means. The term is expressive, ff not very elegant. But liquid air is far more forcible “Hot air’ is persuasive; liquid air is explosive. See an account of forty of Mr. Tripler’s latest experiments in ta@morrow’s Sunday Post-Dispatch. A man may have a few arms and legs cut off and still live, and some men have @ven survived a broken neck; but how many of his internal organs do you think a man could lose without ylelding up his breath at the same time? You will learn to-morrow. Talking about euch matters, there is an old Missouri doctor who has a recipe for longevity. He purposes to live just as long es he wants to; till he gets good and tired. Hie will tell readers cf the Sunday Post- Dispatch all about his plan to-morrow. W' is it that love so often leads to suicide? Why is it that people who are fascinated with each other but are op- posed bf the world decide to die together? This t an infatuating subject, one that will be discussed at considerable length to-morrow. —_—_—-—---— Is it possible to put a price on the grief of widows, the tears of orphans and the sorrows of fathers?—Rev. T. De Witt Talmage In to-morrow's Sun- day Tlost-Dispatch. ——_- — There is a woman just now in the publie @ye who has been seen by more people in St. Louls than any other woman who was ever in this city. Who ie she? Every feature of her face and form, every article of her apparel is Known to probably One-sixth of the people. Stop six men and women on the street and ask them if they have seen her. One out of six has. The other five have heard of her. Three of the six would recognize her photograph. Who is this woman? She has been written about, talked about, gossiped about, lied about, underrated and overpraised. She has seen all of the good and much of the troubles of life. That alone makes her interesting. Would you know who she is and the story of her life? Read the Sunday Post-Dispatch to-mor- row. It will give you her whole history.

“is yo eh ns» fas - - ENDED 1 TIME OF GHACE Bishop Jaussen Will Confer With St. Patrick's People. SOME HOPE OF A SOLUTION. GUT EAST SIDE PARISHIONETS ARE DETERMINED. Call for a Meeting Saturday Afternoon to Again Decide Upon a Plana for Opposing Father Cluse. Half a dozen pickets, patrolling the pave- ment in front of St. Patrick’s Church property in East 6t. Louis, were all the visible evidence of the pending trouble be- tween the Bishop of the Belleville diocese and the parishioners opposed to the as- signment of Vicar-General William Cluse to succeed Father James Downey as rector of the parish. The crowds assembled around the church Friday in response to false rumors of the hourly arrival of either Bishop Janssen or Father Cluse were at their homes or pur- suing their avocations elsewhere, Neither the hichop nor Father Cluse came. This. however, is not suggestive of an absence of excitement in the city over the eituation with reference to the church row The trouble is being thoroughly dis- cussed. it is said, in every household in the city. It has got to the point where it is affecting both the friendly and business relations between the members of St. Pat- rick’'s and other parishes, particularly on account of nationality. For instance, it is said that a parishioner who had dealt with a certain groceryman belonging to another parish for 30 years withdrew her patronage from her old and steadfast friend because their sympathies in the church fight lay In opposite direc- tions. If the parishioners adhere strictly to the position assumed at the start to the effect that under no circumstances would they aoecept Father Cluse as a pastor and the Bishop will not recede from his expressed determination to send Father Cluse into the parish under the orders of the Bishop the churah will be closed. The parishioners insist that this will sat- isfy them if it does the Bishop, because it means that they have “blocked put” Fath- er Cluse or another German priest. Bishop Janssen insists that he jis giving the parishioners every opportunity to with- draw their objections to his action In as- signing Father Cluse to the rish. f the }3ishop had arrived in the city up te noon the fact could not be ascertained. Probably in view of his letest decree, the arishioners announced a meeting at St. atrick’s Hall in the basement of the church at 12 o'clock to-day to take formal action regarding the Bishop's latest mes- sage. Bishop Janssen's letter to the parishion- ers asking for a conference is construed as meaning that he will rescind the ap- pointment of Father Cluse. ‘Whether the members of 8t. Patrick’s will treat with His Grace is a question. Some of them argue that he knows their wishes and a consultation could do no ood. It is not wn eS however, that the shop's request will be granted. The letter asking for the conference reads as follows: To the Parishioners of St. Patrick's Con- Gregation. East St. Louis, Ill.—According to an appointment made one menth ago I shall o to East St. Louis, Ill., tomorrow, Satur- ay, the 27th inst., to administer the holy Sacrament of confirmation in St. Henry’s Church on Sunday. My presence in East 8t. Louls on those two days induces me to gra- clously allow the parishioners of St. Patrick's congregation a most favorable opportunity of erring with me. For this reason, I here- by make known that f have extended the time of grace for three days more, until next Mon- day evening, the 29th inst., during which days an adjustment of the difficulties that have arisen in St. Patrick's parish can, with God's a De —— —— e aoe ven a e episcopal residence, Belley Ill., this 26th dey of iar, 1899. . “iene X. J. JANSSEN Bishop of Belleville. To a Post-Dispatch reporter, who called at the diocesan residence in Belleville Kri- day afternoon, Bishop Janssen said: ‘I have promulgated a letter that speaks for iteelf. In this unfortunate controversy I have endeavored to act for the greater honor and glory of God.” The Bishop appeared somewhat worried, though he was calm and collected, weigh- ing each remark before he let it fall. few weeks ago he laughingly said the trouble in St. Patrick’s Parish amounted to nothing. His attitude, as he then ex- ge ta it was: ‘“‘No compromise, no mid- le ground; the appointment of Father Cluse will .stand.”’ ‘Now he gays: “I'm sorry. The deplorable affair has worried me, and to my prayers are added those of my people for proper guidance.”’ To the question, “‘Do you still think Father Cluse is the best for the place?" he replied: “I certainly do; otherwise I would not have selected him.” “Is Father Cluse willing to accept under the circumstances?’ “Most assuredly he ts willing to obey the will of his superior." It will be remembered #that Monsignor Martinelli, to whom the parishioners ap- pealed for redress, cautioned Bishop Jans- gen to avoid scandal. In accordance with the Papal Delegate’sa advice the Bistop had caused to be read in St. Patrick’s Church a letter, asking the communicants to receive Father Cluse and accord him a welcome befitting a loyal minister of God. The parishioners refused to even listen to the letter, which Father Downey read at Mass on two occasions. The Bishop named Friday evening as the time limit for their decision, He intimated that if it was not then forthcoming would suspend services at the church. “In case the churah were closed the parishionere who fail to attend would mass breviaryv hand and He tapped his fingers on the Whictt he held in his right frowned.

A Resolutions Which Were Prepared for Introduction at the Anti- Trust Banquet. Special to the Post-Dispatch. JEFFERSON CITY, Mo., May 27.—The accompanying documents have been re- ceived by the Governor. They refer to the street railway consolidation bill, which is now awaitin ubernatorial action: died St. Louls, May 2%, 1899. Hon. Lon V. Stephens, Governor, Jefferson City, Mo.: On my own responsibility I take the oc- casion to send you inclosed copy of a paper, which, as the result of a conference be- tween several well-known Democrats, prepared for the purpose of introducing at last night’s Anti-Trust gathering of the Democracy. At the last moment, however, we were given to understand that such ac- tion was deemed “inexpedient,” and the resolution was not presented. The object of the resolution was to cafl attention to the St. Louis Street Railway Consolidation Bill, which slipped through the Democratic Assembly, and is in your hands for approval or veto; and it is pointed out that the bill creates a monumental trust or monopoly by sanction of law. It appears to me to be very inconsistent and ver? poor politics for a Democratic Legis- lature and Democratic Governor to sanc- tion so palpable and egregious a monopoly, just at the very time when Democracy is raising the slogan against all trusts and monopolies, and is making the issue a car- dinal tenet in the impending State and na- tional campaign. It would appear in very. bad grace, and would make the contrast be- tween declaration and deed ridiculous. A further consideration, of a very prac- tical political nature, is the power which it would put into the hands of the Republi- can party in this city, and which would have an important influence throughout the State; that is, the creation of a great po- litical machine in the hands of our political opponents. Mr. Edwards Whittaker and Mr. George Baumhoff, whose brother !s Republican Postmaster in this city, and who are both strong Republican managers here, would have in their control as Presi- dent and Manager of the Consolidated sys- tem a great army of employes, which. they could vote solidly against the ‘Democratic party and the interests ‘of the people on every occasion. The history of the conduct of several of the street railway systems in this city in the campaign of 1896, when they voted their employes solidly against free silver delegations in the primaries and for McKinley and other Republican candi- dates in the general election, shows what an unscrupulous use might be made of such a greatly increased power as would re- sult from the proposed consolidation under one management. The foregoing are among considerations both of prirpiple and of practical politics which I would suggest to you in commend- ing the veto of the bill now before you. To approve it would greatly ‘hurt the anti- trust propaganda of the Democracy and would create a dangerous monopoly and po- litical engine in our own midst, to be used against us on every occasion. I would also respectfully call your atten- tion to that reference in the resolution in regard to the reported project of Gover- nor Sayers of Texas to hold a conference for the Governors and Attorney Generals of the several States to devise practical legal means of coping with trusts through- out the. Unfon, and venture to ‘hope that Missouri will not be found lagging in re- sponse to such a call and in proposing in- telligent plans for the good end aimed at. The outpouring of Democracy at the Anti-Trust Banquet last night was very great and inspiring. It is to be regretted that indisposition on your part prevented your being present and taking part. I beg to submit these considerations to you with the assurances of my considera- tion and well wishes. Faithfullv. etc., JOSEPH WHBELESS. Following is the resolution referred to: Whereas, this great gathering of the Democracy wf the State and the nation at the anti-trust Demo- eratic banquet in St. Louis, is called in council for the purpose of reaffirming the unylelding princl ples of Democracy, and with the especial purpose of declaring the hostility of the Democratic party to these vast and undemocratic aggregations of mapital known as trusts and industrial monopolies, made possible and fostered by years of pernicious Republican class legislation, and which in their present development are a menace alike to the in- dustrial, economic and social order of this Repub- lic; and it is the faithful purpose o° the Demo- cratic party to wage a war of exte @ nation on all such unlawful and dangerous comb..ations, and to encourage every lawful means to accomplish this end; and in this connection we applaud and com- mend the intelligent initiative of the Hon. Joseph ». Sayers, Governor of Texas, to call a conference of the Governors and Attorney-Generals of al! the States to devise adequate and efficient legislation to eradicate this great and growing evil; and. Whereas, In the closing hours of the General As- sembly of the State of Missouri, a certain measure was procured to be passed, known as the St. Louis street railway consolidation bill, which is now be- fore the Governor for his action, and which, should it become a law. would be tin itself the creation of a gigantic trust or monopoly in our very midst, merging the entire street railway systems of St. louis inte one corporation, with a vast capitaliza- tion of over $25,000,000, in disregard of the Iimita- tions of the constitution and laws of this State, and endowed with autocratic powers and privil- eges, from which po just returns in accommoda- tions or taxes would ever be made to the com- munity or to the State; and would be fraught with the gravest political mischief in giving into the control of two astute Republican politicians of St. Louls who would be at the head of the con- solidation an army of some 20,000 employes, to be coerced, as they were In 1896. into voting at the dictation of their masters, against the candidate of their choice, Wm. J. Bryan. and the principles of their party, and thus creating a political ma- chine dangerous in its existence and vicious in its exercise. Therefore. Be it resolved by this assembly of anti-trust Dembdcracy, That we respectfnily and earnestly call upon and urge Gov. Lon V. Stephens to veto said bill: and that a copy of these resolu, tlons’be forwarded to the Governor by the Secre- tary of this assembly. —_— or THOMAS BAKER ASSASSINATED. 'The Eleventh Victim in One Year of eat ; | es Great Kentucky Feud. LOUISVILLE, Ky., May 27.—Thomas Ba- in Clay Hie was the leader of one faction in the celebrated Baker-Howard feud, and ' was the eleventh victim, He was shot from six miles from |: near his home, Baker was sentenced to the penitentiary for life last summer for the killing of Sher- ‘iff White, but was granted a new trial and He went back to Clay arrested for another on bond. and was was out Baker was alleged to have sa'‘d to kill, after which he was willing to be hanged.

Bradley sent the militia to Clay County last June matters became quiet for two months. The Bakers at that time consented to arrest and were taken to number of friends in | Barboursville, where they remained under guard until time of trial. This famous feud grew out of a mere trifle. The Howards and Bakers were one vear ago doing a logging business in Clay Both families were prominent and well-to-do. A’ dispute arose between them over some ldgs, and one or two fist fizhts resulted. Last August, however. one of the Bakers and two of their friends, while going up from the river, were shot dead in the road by persons concealed in ambush. From that time forward there was no safety for either side and killings Were frequent. GEN. HARRISON HONORED. on He and His Wife Will Dine With cube French President Monday. PARIS.

Encouraged Higher Education, Con- stant Study and the Application of True Womanly Independence. JACKSONVILLE, Ill., May 27.—Mrs. W1l- liam J. Bryan addressed the graduating class of the Academy for Young Women, her own alma mater. She was received with the greatest enthusiasm. Her theme was “‘American Womanhood.” She said: “The public interest follows from the unique position in which American woman stands to-day. This place has not been gained at a single bound, but has seen reached by very gradual steps. “Not only was woman's inferiority an es- tablished fact, but robust health was not quite the proper thing. From time to time there arose a few brave spirits who spoke for a different kind of womanliness, “It is not surprising that each decade broadened the views of mankind till it was discovered that the mind of woman was worth cultivating and that a robust and well-developed body was possible without the loss of that exceedingly indefinite qual- ity known as femininity, until at last wom- an has entered upon an era of ‘equal educa- tional advantages and the many changes which follow such a system. Prejudice dies hard. Individually, I think the men have done nobly in rooting out the inherited ideas of generations. “But with the eradication of prejudice from the masculine mind comes a whisper of kindred growth in the minds of women. “It must in candor be confessed that see- ing young men flunk in Latin and mathe- matics does not make the other sex place them on a pedestal and worship-as at the shrine of infallible wisdom, but it sienehy ag me womankind at her ease and makes er feel that she has an equal chance in the Tace. ‘The power to earn her own living. While women have entered in some instances up- on work which perhaps more properly be- longs to men, there are numerous avenues in which she is legitimately entitled to a ‘|share and at Jeast one of the learned pro- fegssions for which she has a marked fit- ness. I speak of the profession of medl- cine and nursing. “But out of this ability to live independ- ently comes a great good, namely, a de- crease in the number of unhappy marri- ages. As soon as a woman is able to earn her own livelihood she will cease to marry for a home (a phrase which was very cur- rent twenty-five or fifty years ago), but will wait until she finds not only home, but a man whose congenial tastes call forth her respect and love. Each home es- tablished upon such a basis will be per- manent and happy. “The questicn arises, now that woman has the opportunity to get an education and improvea the opportunity, What will she do with it? “We are the homemakers of the land. If any one doubt this, let him watch the ma- neuvers of the average man when he tries to manage a house. It becomes plain to the most careless observer tfat he is out of his ephere. The home is our special province and all true women glory in the fact. They love their homes. They wish to give them all sensible and legitimate care, and here is where the real complications arise. A good education is only a basis for future work. It is not so much what we learn in schoo) as what we learn after graduation that decides our place in the world. Does it pay to drop all study in devotion to the home? Are a husband and wife, who begin with equal advantage, to drift slowly apart be- cause he continues to develop mentally while she stands still or rather retrogrades on account of domestic cares? If she is ty grow, too; if she is to aid and supplement him mentally as well as to attend to his hysical comforts, where is the necessary ime if no home cares are to be neglected? How can such a varied duty be successfully wrought? ‘‘No two lives have the same eurroundings nor the same duties; the judgment of out- stiders, while often helpfui, can hardly be reliable, because they cannot know the con- ditions thoroughly. ‘The second point that seams essentia!} is a wise economy of time, together with — and systematic efforc. We often ear of a lack of time for reading and study, but in the majority of cases the trouble arises from wasted time. “While we hear a great deal these days about, equality, the real, permanent ad- vancement of man depends on her own individual development. “When man finds in woman a thorough appreciation of his work and aims; when the mind of woman becomes the perfect supplement and complement of the mind of man, which the Creator intended it to be, then will all the discussions @s to the rights and privileges cease. “Woman has long been a recognized pow- er in ‘the spiritual world, and when one looks into a church in any part of our lund and sees how much of the work is done by woman, it seems almcst superflu- ous to say that the ideal of American womanhood is attained under a three-fold development of the phyeical, the mental and the spiritual. “T cannot believe that a woman is less womanly if she understands the working of our Government, if she appreciates the broad principles upon which a Republic rests. Our young men and women are not usually taught to properly value the privi- leges of citizenship nor to recognize the duties belonging thereto. To the women of our land belongs the only duty of aiding in keeping alive the fires of patriotism, and the perpetuity of our institutions depends in no mean degree upon her Intelligent In- terest.”’ * The graduates were: Maude A. Cooper of Bradfordtown; Daisy M. Dennis of Rush- ville, Jennie F. Grassly, Catherine C. Har- ris, Nellie E. Michael, Emma Rankin and Eliabeth H. Stryker of Jacksonville. BARKER REPORTS TO LONG.

HIS HEALTH IS IMPROVING. The Itinerary After Leaving Hong Kong Is Indefinite, but There . Will Be Plenty of Stops. NEW YORK, May 27.—A special to the World from Hong Kong says: The World correspondent gave to Admiral! Dewey hif@ first information that the City of New York will expend $150,000 and the Sta‘e of New York $75,000 in giving a fit- ting welcome home to the hero of Manila Bay. The Admiral said: “I am amazed by such lavish preparations.” Then he add- ed: “I wish the World would convey to the public my grateful thanks. The Admiral’s itinerary after leaving Hong Ko is indefinite. ne repr his flagship. the Olympia, will be finished in about a week, he expects. When a are done to his setisfaction he will J immediate.y for New york. Regaroing wis homeward voyage he told the correspond- ent, “I cannot say definitely when I shall reach home, but probably it wiil be about the ist of October. “The Navy Department very kindly has permitted me to select my own route and take my own time. ‘“‘As the officers and men of the Olympia have been in Manila Bay more than a year with no recreation, they deserve considera- ‘ion. So | shall proceed toward home lelaurely, staying a while at various ports in order to give the men some merited recreation.” When Admiral Dewey arrived in Hong Kong it cost him an effort to even write a letter. But the cool air of the Peak District has acted like a wonderful tonic and he has recuperated rapidly. He walks out every evening with United States Con- sul-General Wildman. There is no doubt of his complete recovery ultimately. While he remains here he will live in comparative quiet. He is constantly deciini the in- vitations of his lange number of callers. His presence has aroused all classes td a high pitch of enthusiasm, and numerous banquets have been tendered him by the Governor of Hong Kong, all the official bodies, the ‘Board of Trade, the Hong Kong Club and many individuals. The Admiral probably will dine at the Hong Kong Club wh Consul Wildman and with the Governor if his health permits. DEWEY TO SETTLE DISPUTES. He Wi!! Have Power to Oust the Na- val Bureau Ringsters. WASHINGTON, May 27.—The Secretary of the Navy proposes to create a board composed of Admiral Dewey, president, and two of the Rear Admirals, to settle prompt- ly all questions that come up from the chiefs, and the chiefa themselves when oc- casion demande. One of the first matters which Admiral Dewey and Secretary Long will settle for al] time is the ringsters in the Navai Bu- reau. Secretary Long has been trying to prevent the bickerings, animosities and petty personal ambitions of the chiefs who have been made Rear Admirals from get- ting to the public. He has done his best to suppress these insubordinate chieftains whose apparent business it ise to crush Rear Admiral Hich- borne, Chief of the Bureau of Construction, and Rear ‘Admiral O’Neil, Chief of the Bureau of Ordnance, two of the oldest chiefs in the country, and whose reputation extends to other countries. DEWEY STATUE ASSURED. San Francisco Contributed $25,000 in One Day. SAN FRANCISCO, May 2.-—The first contributions have been received for the statute that it fe proposed to erect tn Gold- en Gate Park in honor of Admiral George Dewey. The subscriptions aggregated $2,- 000, comprising $10,000 from Claus Spreckles and $5000 each from Mayor Phelan, John Mackay and ‘a friend.’’ It is the hope of the promoters to erect a sultable statue of California marble at a cost of $100,000. ' F —_ BLUEFIELDS SIEGE RAISED. United States Brings the Central Americans to Terms. WASHINGTON, D.

The firm atti- tude of the United States in the Bluefields dispute and the Pears case is bringing Nicaragua and Honduras to terms, Minis- ter Merry has informed the State Depart- ment that the Nicaraguan Government has relieved Gen, Torres from command of the Department of Bluefields and that he un- derstands the Managua authorities will not press the American merchants for the dou- ble payment of duties, as originally ex* acted. Gen. Torres’ removal ts the result of rep- resentations made by Minister Merry, com- plaining of the harsh treatment accorded American citizens in Blueflelds by that official. BROTHER AND SISTER MEET. Pathetic Reunion in an Illinois Hos- pital After Twenty-five Years. CARLYLE, Ill., May 27.—A peculiar in- cident resulted in an affecting scene yes- terday in St. Joseph's Hospital at Breese. Leon, Frederick and Martha Huberisch were reuntied after a separation of @& years. Recently Leon Huberisch, 40 years of age, a stranger in this country, was dangerously wounded in a cutting affray near Germantown. He was removed to the hospital in Breese. A letter addressed to him there passed through the hands of the mother superior of the sisters. Her sister had been united in marriage to a man whose name was similar to that of the man in the hospital, who later admitted his iden- titv. The brother, a wealthy citizen of New York City, was notified, and, accom- panied by a sister, left for Breese. The last time they had seen each other was 2% years ago, when Leon Huberisch left Germany to seek his fortune in America. THE CHINESE WILL RESIST.

Pears Were Unwilling to Risk Leaving Contracts Open Over a Few Days’ Interval NBW YORK, May 27.—The market for stocks has been dull and professional all week and net changes are not large. Pro- fessiona!] traders are averse to leaving con- tracts open over a four days period and when the stock exchanges decided not to trade on next Monday preceding Memorial Day there was a general evening of con- tracts on the short side. The inducement for the bears to cover was found in the increased earnings of the majority of railroads, reporting the buy- ing of American stocks for London account, the consequent easing of sterling exchange the continued ease of money here and the continued large and confident. buying of railroad bonds. The early pessimistic views on the reports of ruined wheat crops, probable gold ex- ports, diminishing foreign trade and danger of collapse in newly floated’ industrial securities were so far modified by these considerations as to leave the bears un- willing to risk leaving contracts open over a few days’ interval, with the possibility of some development which would still more favorably affect the outlook. CERVERA’S SAD MISSION. He May Return to Remove His Dead Sailors to Spain. PORTSMOUTH, N. H., May 27.—The gal- lant old Spanish Admiral, Pascual Cervera may be here again this summer, where hiy sailors were imprisoned after the destruc- tion of hia fleet at Santiago. The Spanish Government, it is said, will probably ask permission of the United States to remove the remains of the Spanish sailors whe died here to their native lard. This move- ment. it is safd, was originated by Ad- miral Cervera himself. A letjer from one of the Spanish Lieutenants who was im- prisoned there, written to @ Portsmouth friend, says: “T shall request that I be sent to the United States with our honored Admiral, Qervera, who was so kindly received jin your country a year ago, while we were in distress, and hope to greet you again, ever mindful of your many happy re- gards.”’ More than % of the sailors of the San- tiago fleet are buried on Seavey’s Island.

Can the Democratic administration of Missouri stand this deadly contrast with the Republican administration of New York? Can the Democratic party of Missouri survive such a black record of legislative protection for corporation tax- dodgers, while the burden of taxation is laid on unprivileged toilers of the farms, shops and stores?

Do you suppose a man in his senses could forget the name of the girl he’s engaged to?” “Did he forget Jennie Fisher's name?" ‘Mixed her up with her cousin, Elsie,” said Cobb. “And you know those two girls are not a bit alike.”’ This certainly did seem conclusive. As I had always liked Jack Brainerd, ever since he came to live and to make money in our city, five years before, it troubled me a go deal to think that anything 80 sad as mé@ntal aberration should come upon him so early in life. He was not W, I felt sure. And then, Jennie Fisher, the g.rl to whom he was supposed to be engaged, the daughter of our hostess that evening, was as sweet a girl as any in our community, and that is saying much.

BROOKLYN HANDICAP, IT WILL BE RUN AT GRAVESEND SATURDAY AFTERNOON. THE ENTRIES AND BETTING. Filigrane Is a Well Played Favorite and the Schorrs’ Algol With Burns Up at 50 to 1. Special to the Post-Dispatcb. NEW YORK, May 27.—Those who travel Gown Brooklyn way this afternoon will see the greatest Brooklyn Handicap that has ever been run. It wiil be great in the qual- “| of the horses and great in the number of starters. Not a single famous horse, East or West, with the exception of Plaudit that had a chance to win, is missing. There is Fillgrane, the best $-year-old that has ever made a dash for the race, Henry of Navarre excepted. There is Ben Holladay, the recognized champion of the older division. There is Banaster with his Toboggan vic- tory fresh upon him and just stamped with the fastest trial of the season. There is Den d'Oro, the uncertain, and Aigol, the reliable. There is the swift mare Imp. and the Ill- tempered but speedy Box and there is Jef- ferson, whose last victory was so impres- sive, and Fieur de Lis, with a good Cali- fornia record behing her. The regulars will be pleased to see a handsome new paddock and a new club- house balcony. Otherwise it is the same old track over which the first Brooklyn Handi. cap was run 12 years ago, when Dry Mono- pole, Blue Wing and Hidalgo flashed past the judges stand heads apart. . In the ll years since then the race has been won by many good horses like The Bard and Tenny and Ornament, and it has been won by some bad horses like Cast- away II. and Judge Morrow and Howard Mann. Unless an accident happens to-day’s win- ner will deserve to rank with the very best that have gone before. The track is not so fast’‘as Morris Park and record time is out of the question. Filigrane was a strong favorite in the uptown resorts last night. Joseph Ullman laid $4000 to $1000 at the Turf Club and A. Levy laid $3000 to $1900. The Brooklyn Handicap is the fourth race on the programme and the horses will probably go to the post about 4:30. The en- tries and jockeys are: Horse. Jockey. Ben Holliday (Taral) ..... Algol (Burns) Pink Coat (Simms) Don d'Oro (Spencer) Banaster (Maher) Jeannet (Odom) Imp (Clayton) George Boyd (Hamilton) Rangle (Turner } Warrenton (O'Connor) Previons (W.

Filigrane a ee es cds cceead bee Ben Holladay Don d'Oro Nanastar Vrevious . ee ee eet Jeanneat Better weather nor track than the Graves- end folks will have for their opening this afternoon could not be asked for. The air is clear and warm and the track is in the best of condition, and ag the horses en- gaged in the big race have worked and raced faster than those engaged in any other handicap, the interest is intense. All but three of the horses have shown their speed at Morris Park or at Aqueduct in races. and those who have not have worked in public, so that their ability is pretty well known. No heavy work was done by any of the candidates yester- day, although all had good gallops. This morning early all the likely starters were out on the track for a gallop of twice around, and some of them got a fast quar- ter through the stretch, while the train- ers of the others gave them but a fullong as a pipe-opener, and then all were sent to their stables to rest until it shall be time to go to the post. According to those who have been around the track in the early morning hours dur- ing the week, the best work was done by Banastar, who has covered the mile and a quarles in 2:08% with weight up and head swinging. Filigrane, the winner of the Metropolitan in a new record for the Withers mile, fairly burnt the track in his trial, and showed that he thad all the speed he had on the opening day at Morris Park. These two ere likely to be the best backed horses in the race. Of course, there is the usual prejudice against 3-year-olds winning the Brooklyn, so Filligrane stock will suffer a little in that respect, although it is chimed that the yen 9 horses this year are by no means a good lot, while Filigrane is a phenomenally good 3-year-old, Another favorite was Ben Holliday, who seemed to be unbeatable at any distance last fall. He looked to be in the pink of condition and great reports of his work came from Sheepshead Bay, where he has had his training. He is one of the trio that has not been to the post this season. He will have Taral on his back, which is a point in his favor. The fancy for Jefferson is because of his race on Thursday at Morris Park, when he showed 80 much speed and cantered home a winner in front of Latson, Buela and oth- the shrewd Schorrs may not 6tar: him on a dry track. Pink Coat is a doubtful starter, for he has been in a bad way for the last two weeks. Don d'Oro is the dangerous horse, fcr no one knows What he will do. He has raced well, ‘has a lot of speed and can surely travel the distance. He ie a rogue, how- ever, and seems to be able to run only in the front rank. Jeannot is conceded to be in only to keep Odem busy, 80 as to pre- vent him from riding Fiiigrane and thus beat Maher, who is under contract to the Clark stable. Imp has shown speed at times, and then again has been unable to get out of her own way. In her last race she won easily from a fair lot. George Boyd has shown some fairly good work, but it is conceded that he will have to do better than ever before in his life to beat the horses he will meet to-day. Bangle has a lot of speed, has done well appearance felt for a time. Warrenton is one of the least considered of the lot, as his races at Morris Park have been poor.

TROUBLE IN THE ARCADE. All Because a Little Colored Boy Pil- fered a Lot of Tulips and Valu- able Hyacinth Bulbs. Reports from the Arcace in the heart of Cabanne bespeak less of peace than do the reports from over in the Philippines. A truce bag been declared in Cabanne un- til June 18. Grocer Brennan, who leads the fight on one side, hes dispatched for re- inforcements and hes service notice that he will make a determined stand on t t is Mrs. C. Neffert, oe ae en o young, DOr toe te belne e ery. ulation K indulged in ow the non-combatants in Cab- anne as to wi her Mrs. Neffert will heed Grocer Brennan’s appeal for help, as it le suspected that she sympathizes with the enemy. In fact, Mr. Brennan is not fully satisfied that he knows where Mrs. Neffert is. It is said she was bred in old Ken- tucky and is now visiting friends where the meadow grass is green. Mrs. Neffert is an important personage in this legal battle that is disrupting ali Cab- anne and the Arcade in particular. And all this trouble came about because of a Hittle colored boy's love for flowers. As told in the Post-Dispatch Willie Thompson, who is black and abowt 15 years old, does odd jobs for Albert E. Suppiger, the Arcade druggist. He is charged with having taken hyacinths and tulips from the yard of W. J. Brennan, the Arcade grocer, who has a handsome home on Ma- ple avenue. Willie is known ‘to most of Cabanne’s population. He has long worked around Mr. Suppiger’s drug store, and he is always polite and obliging to everybody. He dresses nicely and with his little white coat and cap he is neat. His manner is always re- spectful. Mr. Suppiger has both a Bell and Kinloch telephone in his drug store. They may be used at will by his customers. Cabanne young ladies receive many calls to answer the telephone and Willie carries these summonses. Naturally Willie is well! liked by them and they sympathize with him and think he is being harshly dealt with simply because he took a few flowers in the spring time. Mr. Suppigur thinks that the milk of hu- man kindness in Mr. Brenren has departed and the druggist will take up arms for his servant. The other shopkeepers in the Ar- cade are averee to taki sides, but they all speak a kind word for the colored boy and sey that he only took a few flowers. Mr. Brennan is as determined as ever that the bay shall not go unpunished. “Now, that I am in this. I am going to c through with it,”’ he said. “If his ‘allies ad not tried to carry things with a high- hand the mutter would t.ave been settled new. The boy was only cherged in the first place with trespass and even had he been tricd in the poMce court he would not have been unished severely. But his friends got the case ‘fixed’ and the police court ofiicers would give me no asatisfac- tion. I believe there is a law to protect one’s home and property and I will test that law to the end.” Mr. Brennan says that Willie took a lot of tulips and 23 nyacinths from hie yard. The tull s he gave to the clerks in Sup- piger’s store and Mr. Brennan found the hyacinths in possessicn of Mrs. Neffert in the bakery. “No, sir, 1 won't talk about my case,” said Willie. ‘‘When I am tried 1 will tell the Judge ali I know, but I don’t want my'| t anything. Mr. Brennan can’t prove what he says. I didn’t take any 23 hyacinths. There were only six. And I only took two tulips. And I don’t see how he is going to prove that those hyacinths that I gave Mrs. Neffert came from his yard. “I wonder if Mr. Brennan was never a boy and if he didn't steal any flowers? He ought to think of that. pay him what they were worth if he thought I took them. But he said $50 would aes replace them and he would not allow me O pay. Mrs. Neffert, who it is eaid was given the flowers, is out of the city. Mr. Brennan has tried to get service on her, but the Dep- uty Sheriffs cannot locate her. The young lady in charge cf the store answers all questions with a charming smile, but there is no information in her anewers. The case was called for trial in the Court of Crim- inal Correction Friday, but as Mrs. Neffert could not be found the case was continued until June 13. It is said that the trial will be continued from time to time until the deputy can locates Mrs. Neffert. FINE MATCH GAME OF GOLF. Scheduled to Be Played Between st.

DENT Several Missourians Charged With Belling Liquor Without License and Held for the Grand Jury. An old man, bent and feeble, was ar- faigned for preliminary examination before United States Commissioner Gray Saturday én the charge of selling Uquor without a license. Not until he spoke did District Attorney Rozier recognize in the aged defendant a Doyhood friend. “My name is James Burnet, sir,”’ said the prisoner, “and I live in Gila, Dent County, Mo."’ “Well, Jim,” Shook hands heartily, done?”’ “A tear glistened in the old man’s eye. “I can't say that I’ve Wrong. I've been retailing bitters down in the county and you folks seem to think its whisky.” Burnet sold a preparation called “Empire Stomach Bitters,’ guaranteed to cure chilis, fever and ague and kindred ailments.

During Grant's last year of struggle be- tWeen life and death an. event occurred Which caused cameenecane pain and anx- fety to his fami: A profesilonal astrolo- @r had cast the General’s horose ope, and ad predicted that he swould die on Marti 31. The prediction worried the family, not because they believed it, but because of the fear that it would come to the Gen- eral’s ears and annoy him. The strictest Watch was kept in order that papers con- taining the prophecy should not come into his possession, but one day when the fam. ily returned to the Generals room afier breakfast they found him intently reading the forecast of his own fate. Nothing at all was said about It at that time or later, for they wished as fur as possible to keep the General's m.nd from dwelling on the thought of death, but as the date grew near they noticed that he asked more frequently what day’ of the Month it was. Sometimes he asked that Question twice on the same day, and when his son Ulysses answered on one occasion, he eald: “You told me that before.” “I know I did, father, but it Morning. ‘Ll had forgotten it,” answered the Gen- appeared to a other kind said he, hha was this eral. The family became more and more anx- fous as the day approached, and when at last it arrived they dreaded the effect it might osstbly have upon the General's mind. Every one about his bedside was xtremely nervous, untfil they ruddenly ound out that instead of belng anxivus about the day of his death, his inquiries as to the date had been ow!ne to the fact that on that day he was to receive his irst pay as Gen. Grant. He couid searce- ly wait until the money came, and when at last it did arrive he made it up into *Olls, Which he passed to nis sons and his wife, and kept only $2 for himself. He ‘ared nothing for the money. It Was only he comifort that he knew it would give ls loved ones that made him happy. A BRAVE YOUNG WOMAN. t Was Her First Experience With Real Life-Sized Oysters. From the Washington Post. A young girl from the State of Washing- came Kast to visit a Western Senator's family, last winter, had an ex- rience she hasn't forgotten yet. The rat few days of her stay in the capital were spent there, and her meals were Served in her reom. first evening she ordered oysters for dinner. Now, she knew nothing of a real, life- sized oyster, having spent all her days on the Pacific coast, where oysters are not Oysters at all. but something altogether Gifferent. She was young and exceeeding ine. perienced, and she said tu the waiter: ‘Bring tme i oysters.’ The waiter gasped. “Is that all?’ he eaid. “O. no,’ sheanswered cheerfully. me—well. dinner, too.’ She says herself that she had to shut her eyelids tight to keep her eyes from pop- ping out of her head when she saw the 3 Oysters, “Isn't that mo re than 530?" she asked, “No, misa,’ answered the waiter. ‘Shall I take some away?’ and he grinned, it Was the grin that did it. Het Western blood rose at It. “No,” she said coolly. ‘It's not too Many; I'm hungry.’ She locked the door after the astonished Walter and opened the window. It was a dark night, but she could see the roofs of the on houses almost within arm's enéath her window. Only a narrow alle, Separated the buildings.

After a session which reminded spectators of the accounts of the French Chamber of Deputies in action, the House of Del- egates reorganized itself Friday night. A new set of officers were elected and John A., alias “Kid’’ Sheridan, Democrat, was given the seat heretofore occupied by WIill- =m gn ve Republican, from the Fourth bie reorganization is a direct blow at the These momentous results were not ac- complished peaceably. Threats, curses, in- vective, shouts and the last degree of oon- fusion marked the entire proceeding. One may know that the session was disorderly when the Hon. Jim Cronin begged his col- leagues to calm themselves and not “‘dis- grace us all.’ The reorganization became possible only through the desention of H. A. Falkner of the Twenty-third, and Charles Gutke of the Tenth, from the Ziegenhein camp. to that of the Murrell faction The reorganization was the fruit of the labors of the Murrell crowd, which has never ceased to work for it since the House was first ofganigzed. The reorganization would have place Tuesday, had not favorable action been taken on the police bill. Delegate Schnettler had pledged his support to a reorganization if it was found necessary to obtain support.for the police bill. But Faulkner proved Paithful, and Gutke was won over. So it was arranged to reorganize Friday night. Just before he introduced the re- organization resolution, Delegate Robert- son conferred with Delegate Faulkner. Delegate Albright interrupted them and a fight was narrowly averted. This started the ball. Robertson's resolution was the signal for the riot. Albright tried to ad- journ and then to table the resolution, but with a great shout the insurgents voted him down. The vote on the resolution was 15 to 13. The same sort of proceedings, interspersed with numerous encounters that threatened to turn into general fights, characterized the remainder of the session, but the in- surgents accomplished their purpose. They elected the above-named officers and seated Sheridan. Sheridan was sworn in by Jus- tice Bob Walker, who happened to be pres- ent, and took his seat at once The Murrell faftion now consists of Del- egates Bersch, taulkner, Decker. Gutke. Hannigan, Hartmann, Helms, Kelly, King, Lehmann, Madera, E. E. and J. K. Mur- rell, Robertson, Schumacher, Sheridan and ex-Speaker Tamblyn. The Butler-Ziegenhein faction consists of Albright, Cronin, Burke, Denny, Holtcamp, Lopez, Parker, Schnettler, Sturdevant, Sweeney and Zachrits. Before adjournment the supplementary police bill was considered in committee of the whole and progress reported. The House then adjourned until noon Saturday. THREATENED TO SHOOT HIM. Why Thomas McDermott Frank Johnson’s Arrest. Frank Johnson was arrésted at Past St. Louis Saturday, on complaint of Thomas McDermott, who claims Johnson threatened to shoot him witha shot-gun. From his story, it appears that Johnson's boy threw a rock at McDermott, and the latter chased him. The boy ran home. Mrs. Johnson compelled McDermott to retreat by waving a pistol and later, sao McDermott says, Johnson threatened him with a shot- gun. Johnson was put under a $800 bond to “ee ar Tuesday. he , parties Work TROUBLE WITH HIS FAMILY. ae ee Frank Rose Collided Violently With His Brother-in-Law.

Regulate 3 The safest and best iets, or AY & DISPUTE JUDGE BIGGS’ WORD. Judges of the Court of Appeals Stiil at Outs About a De- cision. — Judges Bland and Bond of the Court of Appeals filed a reply Saturday to Judge Biggs’ caustic answer to their supplemental opinion in the now famous cow case of James T. Wasson against John J. McCook, receiver of the St. Louis & San Francisco Railroad. Judge Biggs, in his answer, made the charge that the majority of the court, com- of Jud oe Bland and Bond, had vio- fated a well-established practice of the court, controliing the resubmission of cases on a rehearing. He also claimed that they admitted in their supplemental opinion that they had misstated the facts in the or‘ginal opinion. In their reply they deny al] these charges and hold that the records of the court suppert them in their position in the ease in which the dignified judges have twisted themselves into a very bitter wran- gle. Their latest opinion is as follows: in his supplemental dissenting opinion, Judge Biggs makes the statement that we ad- mitted in our supplementel opinion that we had misstated facts in the original opinion. The revérse of his statement is true. No such admiséion is made or intimated. On the con- trary, {t is exp iy stated and shown by quo- tations from evidence, that the controlling facts {in the ..8e were correctly stated in the original opinion, as will appear from a reading of the supplemental opinion on file in. the clerk's office. which is a publie record, and will be published in due time in the reports. Judge Biggs also states that it has not been the practice to sustain a motion for rehearing aud to take the case as re-submitted without consent and in the absence of counsel. This statement is contradicted by the records of this court, as will appear by ‘the record en- tries made in a} following cases (by numbers), to-wit: 6897, 7 7228, 04. 7157. and in the eases of Day Ys. Grantham and State vs. Goff, in each of which a motion for rehearing was granted, and in the same order was taken as re-submitted and an opinion was prepared and filed without further otal argument or an portunity being given to file additional briefs. The record shows Judge Biggs present and agreeing to the order made in each of these cases and as concurring in the subsequent opinions. These records are public records and open to the inspection of any one who wishes to be correctly informed of this practice of the court heretofore adopted and acted on by all its members without objection. Jud Big was not in hie office at the Cour shouwes Saturday. and it could not be learned whether he would reply to Judges Bland and Bond.

Judge sigee dissented from whe fre versal opinion, claring that the facts dic not justify it. He added, significantly, that ‘While judges frequently differ on the law and its application, they should never diffe1 on the facts.”’ his sentence aroused thr ire of his associate judges, who though it an aspersion on them, LOOKING FOR HER LOST SON.

The short session opened with a fractionally low- er market, and while the feeling Was not dis- tinctiveliy weak eariy in the session, there was just enough small seiling to keep prices down to or slightly beiow the level of yesterday's close. Trading was extremely light, the big fellows seeming.y not caring to push their advantage at the expense of tucreasing their holdings and carry- gp Soy over Sunday. bles again came weak, and from foreign ad- vices it is apparent that English brokers regard the advafice in American markets as unwarranted.
