By it Mrs. Louis W. Holladay, held for the killing of her husband last Friday night, was deciared In- nocent of murder in the of the law. She was, also, after application to Judge tne eves . Clark, admitted to bail. The next logical be the refusal of Col. rant officer, to would give Mrs. jure that she would Warnr- this case John warrant, the step in Dick issue any Holladay now has de facto. Col. Johnson holds to his present he will do no thing. For negro servant girl, Bessie Lewis, who caw the ¢hooting, had testified at the inquest she went to Johnson and repeated her story and on hearing it Johnson said: “I shall issue a warrant holding Mrs. Holladay for murder in the second degree.” This he had not done at noon. The coroner's inquest was remarkable in that it was so devoid of the dramatic tures expected. Mrs. Holladay was tremely quiet; not once did she say a except to refuse to testify. She did nor cry; she trembled just a bit when the verdict was announced—that was all. While the jury was out she talked freely, mostly her blue eyes signs of weeping, but she never broke Her nerve was wonderful, after the pas- Sionate tearfulness of the first day or two. The coroner’s inquest, which began at $:4 o'clock and lasted scarcely an hour, developed nothing not already well known. Dr. G. W. Thompson told how he had at- tended Holladay and of Holladay’s telling him his wife was not to blame; Al Blanch- ard, the Suburban Garden singer, told going over 10 the house; Bessie Lewis, Servant, described the trouble before shooting, and the killing itself, and filed Mrs. Holladay’s night gown. burned and bloody; Walker peated the conversation man and his wife, during which Holladay eaid his wife was not to blame, and eral others told of the victim's quarrelsome jays. Telegrams from Holladay’s family, exonerating her, were read.

She chatted briefiy while Mr. Mar- tin told how unnecessary it was for her to have testified: then Officer Kickham tapped her on the shoulder and, heading quite a proc genton of the curious, she went back to the Four Courts, while her attorney moved for bail. In the meantime Bessie Lewis. girl, had gone to Col. Johnson. she said he would not repeat, she be found. Even her this is obscure, for her inquest was really what laday. She told of the razor Holladay had tried to use, and described the conflict from the point of view of an eye-witness, Never- theless, Col. Johnson asserted, after she had left him, that from her story he deemed @ warrant for second degree murder should issue. He would wait, however. until he had a transcript of the testimony at the inquest. Holladay’s body will go to Evanston. Tll.. to-night. where it will be placed in the family burying ground.

C. Fleming of St. Louis. SHERLOCK'S WILL. BREAD CAST UPON THE WATERS RETURNED. NICK Sherlock, Befriended by the Flemings in His Youth, Accumulated a Small Fortune and Left It to His Friends. _ ————————e’ W. Cc. Fleming, who owns a little restau- rant» at 246 Easton avenue and runs it with the assistance of his wife, is heir to one-tenth of an estate now known to be worth $150,000 and which will probably amount to over $200,000 when all the assets belonging to it are collected The other heira are his father, five brothers and three sisters Fleming's good fortune comes through the will of Nick Sherlock, who died five years ago in an asylum for fhe insane at Jack- sonville, Ill. The history of the inheritance iis remarkabhle. Sherlock, when five years old and without ‘. ; ’ accidentally met Rob- latter's home near relations or friends, , "le at the ee ae. a. He told a pathetic story and Kleming oftered to give him a home and treat him as a4 member of his famiiy. ss rhe lad accepted the offer and lived with Flem- ng until he was Zl years oid, being treated son. On his 2ist birthday, Fleming re him some money and procured him a position with John ©, Crabtree, a cattle puver at Jacksonville, Tl. Sherlock prospered, but Was with his position and went West. He lo- ted in Kansas and, with a friend, pur- “ ad a ranch. His wealth increased rap- “=a nd he soon purchased his partner's rey at in the ranch. Then_ he started apt De ranch, near Medicine Lodge, Kan. ig nvested his money as fast as he made ate purchased property in many Kan- gas towns and practically owned the town of Medicine Loage. He was ona high wave of presperity an all his friends thought he was doing well when he announced that he had suffered firrancial reverses and was about to lose all his property. He soon became > sane, pletey ware © -hich he feared. Mr. Fieming heard of his “condition and sent to Medicine Lodge for him. When he was taken back to his old home he seemed to improve for several weeks, but his mental disease event- ually returned to him and he became un- manageable. ie was then Diaced in an insane asylum at Jacksonville. He died a year later, after having become a raving maniac. That was in 1894. A will was discovered among his papers. It had been made several years before and gave his property in equal shares to his henefactor and his benefactor’s chiidren. Mr. Fleming did not. file the will for probate. He supposed Sherlock knew the condition of his property and he had gone insane because it had been dissipated by reverses. Fleming concluded that the will. heyond testifying the esteem in which Sherlock held him,-was not worth the pa- per it was written on. So he put the will among his papers aS a Memento and it was forgotten. Several letter from dissatisfied months ago, Fleming received a Harrisonville, Mo... containing information that Sherlock owned 108 town lots there of considerable value. Mr. Flem- ing investigated and learned that the in- formation Was accurate. Then he con- cluded that possibly Sherlock might have been mistaken about his property losses and he decided to continue the investiga- tion. He employed lawyers in every town Sherlock had visited in his Western career. The result astonished him. Reports poured in from each of those places that valu- able on magn all unincumbered, were in , temperature com- as a result of brooding over ingsan- dis- owl driven to property josses. His eased mind had misrepresented his financial conditions He was prosperous and his wealth was increasing when he imagined he saw his holdings slipping from his grasp and he believed himself to be a venniless as when he was befriended by Mr. Fleming. The investigation of his being prosecuted. It has already been es- tablished that he owné@d«two ranches in Kansas, valued at $30,000 each, besides nu- merous lots in many towns. Zank securi- ties, amounting-to $60,000, have also been found in his name. The estate is now $1),- 00, but Mr. Fleming thinks a continued search will show greater assets. He will not be surprised if it exceeds $200,000, as he is expecting news of large holdings in Colo- rado, where Sherlock lived for several montns. W. C. Fleming, the St. ceived his first information had been found through the Tuesday. When a _ reporter his good fortune, he was almost with joy.

He said he never knew his parents, and had only cne living relative, an uncle, who had refused to keep him and had given him to the German family. ‘In after vears. when Nick was wealthy and had thousands of dollars at his mand he never visited us but what he man aged to spend a day with the German fam- flv who had turned him out tnto the world.

FRANKFORT, Ky., July 18.—Not one Word coneerning the reported Clay County battle has reached the State autherities. Inquiry has been made, but requests for details have as yet met with no response. Five men are said to havé been killed and three seriously wounded in the reported battle, three miles from Manchester, on hat is known a«& Little Goose Creek, Waeéh acker, a deputy sheriff, had arrested Robert Philpot and was receiving his bond the officer is said to have been shot behind. sdy: Then the fight commenced in earnest, George Philpot, G. V. Philpot, Robert Philpot, Peter Philpot and Edward Wisher being engaged on one side and Aaron Morris, Hugh Griffin, William Grif- fin and Green Griffin on the other. Each used a gun, and there ie no way of tell- ana, prec sely the number of shots fired. Vhen. the smoke cleared away it was found that Robert Philpot, Edward Fisher, Aaron Morris, James Griffin and Hugh Griffin were killed. Another of the Griffins was shot in the thigh. Granville Philpot was also wounded. ew nine engaged in the fight, five were ki outright; three were perhaps fatally wounded, and the only man who escaped Unhurt is Peter Philpot. The trouble was the outgrowth of an old grudge between the Philpots and Griffins, which originated last Christmas a year ago, when James Philpot wes shot and killed, but not until he had shot and killed: Wil- Mam Bundy, a friend of the Morrises. There mee.

The principal Weapons used in to-day’s At were Winchester shotguns, loaded With buckshot. A few 45-caliber Colt re- ers Were also used.

The officers were unable to find a clew. Buperintendent Stoddard's injuries are not as serious as it was first supposed, and it ts thought that he will soon be able to resume his duties. Superintendent Stoddard was the only wit- ness to the affair, and the description of the culprits given by him is ™S meager that it is doubtful if any the negroes wiil ever be arrested.

House of Delegates Investigating Com- mittee Brings to Light Some In- teresting Information. . The “Lexow’ Committee of the House of Delegates met in the chamber of the House at 11 o'clock Tuesday and probed into the business methods prevailing be- tween the fiscal officers of the city and Concessionaire Schweickhardt of Forest Park. Park Commissioner Ridgely, Assistant Comptroller Gobel and Auditor Mason were examined. Their testimony indicated that Schweickhardt had violated the ordinances under which he enjoys privileges in Forest Park, and that his violatidns had several times been so long continued as to, carry a forfeiture of privileges and property. It was also shown by testimony that tiie ordinances requiring affidavits to accom- pany payment of revenue under contracts to the city onn a percentage basis was en- tirely ignored and the word of Schweick- hardt was taken without question as (t9 what his receipts were from _ privileges which are paid for on this basis. Section 73, Chapter VI, of the Revised Ordinances requires sworn affidavits to ac- company such payments. All three of the witnecses testified that this was not re- quired ef Schweickhardat. They said that he brought in sums of money at intervals and said it was 15 per cent of the receipts from the merry-go- round and everybody at the City Hail took h siword. Testifying from the records Mr. Gobel said was Schweickhardt’s habit to often get as much as three months behind with his rent and it was shown that on July lh, when he made h’s last payment of rent, he had been three months delinquent, owed the city $3000 in penalties and had under the provisions of the ordinance forfeited not only the privileges, but all the buildings in the park. The testimony showed that on that date the rent was accepted, after his deliquency had been published, and that theci ty’s right to insist on a forfeiture had been thus sacrificed. The ordinance requires Schweickhardt to pay every month in advance. Mr. Gobel testified that he had made only three payments last year two this fiscal year. None of the witnesses could tell whether the cottage had cost what the ordinance required or whether it was insured as the ordinance requires. It was shown that while the ord-nance only permits the sale of drinks at tables a bar is conducted at the cottage, and drinks are sold at the race track. Comptroller Sturgeon had been subpened. He pleaded that he was not well, and sent down Mr. Gabel in his piace. The committee adjourned at 12:30 to Thursday morning at 10 o'clock, to receive information from Mr. Gabe! as to amounts of revenue received from the park. ¢. 0.

Judge Fisher dismissed the application Monday of Eugenie Benoist and Corinne B. Bogy for an injunction, restraining Conde B. Pallen from selling certain property at Seventeenth and Locust streets under a deed of trvst. Judge Fisher held that the appeal to the Supreme Court from a decision of the Cireuit Court in a case involving the good faith of the deed of trust acted praetically as an injunction and that a separate pro- ceeding wos useless. This is the case which Judge Fisher de- clined to try after it had been sent back from the Court of Appeals. The plaintiffs then procured a writ of mandamus from the Supreme Couwt, commanding Judge Fisher to try the case. The case was tried Monday and formally dismissed.

BLaed | s t-Dispatch. : NEW YORK, July 18—The strike situa- tion in Brooklyn is hard to gauge. dpeate’ cars were running at 10 o’clock te-day than at the same hour yesterday, but every line except the Fifth avenue was being covered, On this street there is an “L’” road and passengers have taken to it ‘to avoid an- noyances. President Rossiter of the rail- road company and Police Chief Devery say the strike is over, the former declaring that full schedules will be made’ this afternoon and that cars will be run to-night, The strike leaders deny this, and declare that The Fifth avenue line corresponds in a’ measure to the Washing- ton avenue line in St. Louis, as it is one of the roads that drain the South Brooklyn district and Coney Island. suburban sec- tions. As a result of its being tled up persons living beyond the Fifth avenue “L” road had to walk -or take all sorts of vehicles to ‘tL’”’ stations this morning.

Fulton street is traversed in whole or in part by nearly every line in Bragoklyn. . It is the ehief retail street and the loss sus- tained by the merchants on accoum of the strike has been great. The lines affected have relative importance to those on Olive, Franklin. Washington avenue and ‘the other chief arteries of traffic in St. Louls.. The disturbances have been few and none serious, The strikers evedently won over a num- ber of non-union men to their ranks during the night. The Putnam avenue line, over which the cars had been running on sched- ule for the last few days, was crippled to- day, certainly one-third of the cars being tied - up. On the Fulton street line, which ran on nearly schedule time yesterday, the number of cars was reduced to about one- third. No cars were running on the Nos- trand avenue lines.

CHICAGO, July 18.—Chicago is threat- ened. with q@ beer famine. The brewing companies and their men have been unable to agree upon wages. The men to-night resolved to present their demands once more to-morrow and if refused to withdraw from the conference, This would mean a general strike. = There. are 3) breweries in Chicago and (00 skilled brewers and malsters. There is a small supply of beer on hand. and a day or two of warm weather would drain every brewery of its beer, The mem- bers of the Chicago Brewers’ Association refused to demand on the ground that the doubling of the beer tax as a war meas- ure has eaten up the profits of the buel- ness. COURT FINES ARE UNPAID. Sire Insurance Companies Slow’ in Obeying the Law. Special to the Post-Dispatch, JIEMFERSON, (Mo., July 18.—None of the ousted insurance companies have yet paid their fines, imposed by the Supreme Court in lieu of the ouster of the right to do business in the State, and if any of the agents for the ousted comparies are writing insurance in the State, complications may arise as to the legality of these risks. fhe order of the Supreme Court ts that they are ousted from the date of the action, Friday, Gn the motion to modify the judg- ment, and the writ of ouster is suspended only to those companies which comply with the law. It does not seem to indicate that they can continue business in the State un- til they pay the tine, which must be done in 30 days, but they are ousted now, and in order to continue business they must pay the fine and comply with the order of the Court. The Insurance Department has ruled that the order does not take effect until the 30 days is up, but as that depart- ment has nothing to do with enforcing the order of the Court that opinion does not bind anyone. The clerk of the Supreme Court has received letters from insurance agents asking advice on the matter and he has advised them to consult attorneys, “us he has no right to construe the order of the Court. To settle the matter and avold complications the companies should comply promptly with the crder of the Court, and if any company fails to pay the fine with- in 3 days they will be forever barred from Going business thereafter in this State. Su- verintendent of Insurance Orear states that ie Will not relicense any of these companies in future if they fail to comply with the order of the Court. GOLD DUST COMING DOWN.

After 10 days out, while gathering fruit, Mr. Fa- wards was bitten by a reptile and died ina few hours.” After exploring the country Fell says they Were preparing for the return trip when he and Boynton were striken with fever. They were cared for by a family of native Ama- gonians and Fell recovered. Fell finally made his escape by getting to a tributary of the Amazon and building a raft on which he floated for many miles. A Catholic priest named Patheny Guarmo gave him clothing and aid and a letter to another priest down the river and he final- ly reached Rio Janeiro. GOULD AGREES TO IT.

The United States oGvernment opened a microscopic bureau for the inspection of pork for the export market here on the first of last March upon the application of Rohe & Bro. of West Thirty-third street, to the Agricultural Department. The ex- port trade in pork is increasing all the time from this and, as is very well known, France and Germany in particular, and most other European countries absolutely prohibit the importation of American pork unless ft is certified as wholesome. Dr. Hickman, the director of the Depart- ment of Animal Industry, a distinguished pathologist, who has made microscopic work a specialty for years, at once exam- ined the local field, and upon. his applica- tion first one and then two women micro- scopists were detailed to the metropolis. A bright, clean, amply lighted room on i dragging obstructions upon the car tracks | and danced with glee around those obstruc- tions that were not unlikely the same night to wreck a fire engine, kill firemen and result in the destruction of their own homes, and perhaps of themselves, by the fire to which the engines were hastening. in the schools during the term just closed lessons of good citizenship, respect for the rights of others and regard for life and property have been taught for months. In a fortnight after the close of the schools those lessons have been unlearned by many | of the children. Schools of anarchy have been open in dif- ferent parts of the city and they have had many eager pupils. The lessons they have learned will not readily be forgotten. This is a matter on which the people of Cleve- land should do some serious thinking. Where He Was the Greatest. From the San Francisco Ways. A Detroit millionaire, who spends his sum- mer vacation in a Northern Michigan vil- lage, loves to dazzle the natives with his magnificence. He was unfortunate enough to spoil a suit of clothes out hunting, and had recourse to the local tailor for another outfit. There was a great to-do over the garments, The entire ‘own knew of the preparations. The millionaire's measure- ments were obtained from his Detroit tail- or, and if fussiness were an available fac- tor in clothes-making the suit should have been perfect. When finished, however, the Suit was skin-tight. The millionaire has- Yened to the tallor and threatened a suit. *“Go ahead,”’ replied that functionary, after listening to the tirade: sue me—do. Didn't you give me Detroit measurements?” “Yes,” returned the irate customer. “Well, sir, I kin bring a hundred witnesses ‘© prove you are a durned sight higger man up here than you ever was in Detroit.” Humbled. e ee ee Re ee > Ae ee Oe s E eae ey % oS ee aes atte P< | | hogs just slaughtered, are ‘' microscopists, —_ oe the top story of Rohe & Brother’s estab- lishment was set apart for the examiners, and here Dr. Hickman installed Dr. E. Palzer, who had long experience in Chi- cago; Mrs. A. H. R-chards and Miss Eu- genie Uhlrichs, formerly of the Microscopic Bureau at Sioux City. Mrs. Richards ad- mits that she is nearly BW, and she is a recognized expert with the microscope. So quietly have they pursued their work that very few persons in this city were aware that all the hog products that go abroad from here are attested pure and wholesome by these alert and conscientious examiners. Day after day metal trays, containing tagged and labeled samples from all the brought to the Trichinosis is the most deadly of parasitic diseases, and, these ex- aminers have a thorough appreciation of the importance of their work, both com- mercially and pathologically, Everything is done most systematically and thorough- 2 The finest make of stage-grooved micro- scopes are used. The one-inch lenses are the best quality. Not more than 30 specl- mens a day are allotted to each examiner. The eyes will not stand a greater etrain. Each specimen has three separate examina- tions. If three pieces have been taken from one hog, that animal receives nine examinations before it receives the e6tamp of Government approval. Trichinae are foind at the extremities of the muscles at their insertion into the bones and tendons, and hence these parts of the carcasses are usually selected for microscopic examination. First the fibers are laid bare from the connecting tissue. Then a small portion, probably not more than a couple of millimeters in width, ia taken up with a clean pair of forceps. e vicinity of blood vessels and nerve fila- ments is avoided. The specimen is then placed upon a glass slide, two inches by an inch in size; an- other glass is slipped over it and fastened tightly by clamps at the ends. Then the double glass holder is placed under the microscope. A special form of glass com- pressor has been devised that greatly fa- ciiltates the work of examination. By holding the epecimer toward the strong north ligh: one may see, if his eyes are strong, the tiny trichinae a og es. They look like minutest specks.

Dr. Hickman eald the other day that he had no doubt that more care is taken with this work than tn any other country in the world. Comparatively Tew diseased carcasses are found here. Much of the pork comes from up in the State and is carefully rais. Rats are the prime conveyers of this dreadful parasite, though it is still a moot point whether rats are first affected and then, when accidentally eaten by hogs, in- fect the latter, or whether rats are infecr- ed first by eating the offal from hog-render- ing establishments. Miss Eugenie Uhlrichs was asked how éhe happened to take up this peculiar sort of work. “I’m a Western girth she ¢2i4. “The first case of trichinosis in Amenca was that of a family in Davenport, Io., I think, so perhaps I came to think wo, it rather naturally. To any one who is Iin- clined that way the study of microscopy is engaging, though hunting for irichinae spiralis is, I admit, rather monotonous after a while. “Frankly, the salary and the rather short hours led me to take up the work and stand for the government examina- tion. It is hard on one’s eyes at times, but we only work ‘by daylight, you know, and there is no uncertainty and not much perplexity about the examining. One doesn’t have to stand all May nor deal with all sorts of people, but only do that which is given and do it thoroughly.” THE NATIONAL DISEASE. Worrying Is the Great Drawback to ' Long Life and Prosperity. From the Memphis Commercial-Appeal, The breakdown in American life comes from worry, and worry has almost come to be a national disease. If an American has no money he worries himself into a state of mind, and when he gets any money he worries himself to death for fear he will lose it. He worries at his work because he is afraid he will not accomplish what he is given to do. He worries about his méals; they are not on time, or they may disagree with him, or they may be costing him too much. If he pays for a thing in advance he is afraid it will not come up to the specifications, and if he gets it on credit he is afraid that he will not be able to pay for it when the bill comes in. He is afraid to leave his money in the house lest it be stolen. He is afraid to put it in bank lest the bank should fail. And so he worries about it. He worries about his business, whether it is going smoothly or not. He worries about his family, about the educa- tion of his children and the progress they are making. He worries about the nation, about Congress, about the two great politi- cal parties, about the national conventions, about the gubernatorial elections, about the tariff and financial questions, about the {nitiative and referendum, about the ab- stract right of secession, about the resolu- tions of 98, about the decadence of politics, about civil service reform, about the future of Democracy, about sanitation, the water and gus questions, the paving of streets, the street car system, the class of plays at the theaters, the nomination for mayor and the election of school visitor in the 'steenth clvil district. He either sleeps too much or he sleeps too little. He has an idea that life is a conspiracy, and that he must pre- serve eternal vigilance or the conspirators will get him. He lives so much on his nerves that he gets angry on slight provo- cation, and thus wastes more tissue. The true secret of health and life and success js cheerfulness. The man who does his ap- pointed task without being fussy will live a good deal longer. “Don't worry” and “don't be afraid’ are two very good rules to observe. The American people must learn these rules by, heart and put them into practice if they wish to live long and prosper. Eccentric Manila Hero. Among those who fell in action at Manila recently was Sergt. Morris J. Cohen of the Twentieth Kansas Volunteers. The cabled announcement of his death gives no detaiis but his friends say he was a gailant soldier and when all is Known he will be found to have met a gallant soldier's death. Cohen was a soldier from boyhood. and at oe years in the First Infantry, Last summer he returned home. and ina s ey ort gene sel wagered a friend $200 that he cot wheel a barrow rerl = Francisco. overland to He and a chum made the start togethe from New York, the cone § Cohen never reached his home again The two men won their wager, Teachin ater start ome. reached Kansas when the call f Bn issued. Cohen dropped his with the country, and as he had no money to buy an ontfit he was taken ulong as guide. He proved to be disagreeable and was the cause of much bickering and sus- picion. At the Ute Agency the party di- vided into three separate squads. Packer went with what was called the Noonan party, which consisted of five men. These men had the money which was to carry the outfit through. Nobody wanted Packer. He was surly and treacherous. The little party worked its way up the fork of the Gunnison River and found itself camped in au littie park on the banks of this stream about two miles from Lake City, where five Small head boards piaced there by the good people of the town, marked the graves of those unfortunate men. It was here, according to the testimony developed, that, while four of these men soundly slept under one cover, Alfred Packer, cruel and treacherous as a tiger from an African jungle, crept up, ax in hand, and without warning almost severed their heads from the bodies of his com- panions. A man named Bell, who was Sleeping eome distance from the others, awoke during this awful tragedy and tried to escape, but Packer shot him, His body was found near the creek and there were s0me signs of a struggle. The bodies were robbed and many. valuables taken. Packer made his way to the Los Pinos Ageney and told a pitiful story of woe. He claimed that they were lost and starving; that they drew lots which should be sac- rificed first for the sustenance of the orh- ers, and so one after the other was slain along the way until Bell and Packer only were left; and, the last lot faling on Bell, he rebelled, a struggle began and Bell was dispatched, As he had considerable money suspicion rested on him, He was placed in jail, bur later escaped and was lost until 1880, when he was discovered in Wyoming under the name of Swartz. He had been serving in the army eight years. In the meantime the bodies of the mur- dered men had been found by some miners, There was plenty of ammunition and fire- urms in the camp, and the country around abounded with game, such as deer, rabbits, grouse, etc., and the story of cannibalism wae exploded, unless Packer was too weak to hunt. Packer was sentenced to hang, but the judgment was reversed, and after a new trial the prisoner was sentenced, July 6, 188, to 40 years in the penitentiary, eight years on each man killed. Packer’s record as a prisoner is of the best. ‘His disposition is sullen and morose. He draws a pension from the government, and time and again he has used this money to help along in the world some unfortu- nate who tries to start Hfe anew after leav- ing the prison bars behind him. He has more faith in human nature in this respect than he would be justified in having, for none of those he has aided has ever thought to repay him. He now tells a story somewhat different from his first confession, years ago. He says nothing of the drawing lots to see who would be sacrificed, but charges Bell with all the killing. He says: “One night as I neared the camp I was confronted by a terrible sight. I saw no one but Bell. I spoke to him, and then, with the terrible look of a maniac, his eyes glar- ing and burning flercely, he grabbed a hatchet and started for me, whereupon I raised my Winchester and shot him. The report from my rifle did not arouse the camp so hastened to the campfire, and found my comrades dead. ‘Can you imagine my situation—my companions dead—and 1 left alone surrounded by the midnight hor- rors of starvation as well as those of utter isolation? “My body weak, and my mind acted upon in such a manner that the great- est wonder is that I ever returned to a ra- tional condition. “In looking around I saw a piece of flesh near the fire which Bell had eut from Miller’s leg. I took this flesh and laid it to one side, after which I covered the bodies of my dead comrades, I remained here with them during the night. In the morning I moved about a thousand yards below, where there was a grove of pine trees. I distinctly remember taking a piece of the flesh and boiling it in a tin cup. I also knew that I became sick and suffered terribly. My mind at this period failed me. But I am satisfied that I must have eaten some of the flesh, but my mind was a total blank for some considerabie time. When my mind returned I found that by my tracks I had been visiting around the adjacent territory, seeking rose- buds, which I apparently found, for I no- ticed that by force of habit 1 had been stewing them in my tin cup. I do not know how long I remained here. I do not know how near I was to the close of the year. But the weather began to moderate, and 1 wandered around seeking rosebuds for food. when all of a sudden 1 was confronted by the Los Pinos agency. “Am I the villainous wretch that some people assert me to be? No man can be more heartily sorry for the acts of 24 vears ago than l. I am more the victim of cir- cumstance than atrocious design. No hu- blood, with evil intent, murdered my com- panions. What could be the object of me taking their lives in a wanton manner? “I should like to be set at liberty by a pardon, but, if that should not be deemed best, I would gladly avail myself of the opportunity that a commute would give of showing that I came into existence under circumstances similar to those of others and that I still possess a desire to live and do right.’’ Queer Claims. From the Atlanta Journal. A Chicago man named Taylor asked Con- gress for several sessions to give him $199,- wo for having suggested ‘to President Lin- coln the idea of issuing greenbacks. One Col. de Arnaud made repeated demands for $6#,- 000 for having shown Gen. Grant how to capture the town of Paducah, Ky. An Iowa man wanted $360 for cutting corns of sailors and soldiers during the Rebellion, Another from New York wanted $2 for a pair of trousers which were eaten off a clothesline by a Government goat. A fellow in Min- neso'a requested the sum of $550 for a sky- blue horse taken by the soldiers.

Ail Her Suffering Having Origin in an Ulcerated Tooth Will Have This Terrible Ending. PITTSBURG, Pa., July %.—Mrs. Wilbur Slack, handsome and accomplished, is on the verge of insanity and at the polnt of death in her Oakland home as a result of the extraction of a tooth. Her case is extremely interesting from a pathological as well as a psychological point of view. The disease from which she 1s expected first to go mad and then to die is the rarest in medical history, and the patient, a slim, delicate, sensitive woman, has stood its painful, torturing ravages with a forti- tude that would stamp a strong man aaa hero. According to the testimony of her phys!- cian, Dr. Robert Ek. Mercer, Miss Slack has, through mere exertion of will power, con- centrated in the one thought not! to die, held the grim reaper at bay for | months past. Mrs, Slack’s illness originated in an ul- cerated molar. After the extraction of the tooth inflammation set in and made its way into the antrum, or upper jaw bone. Aji- though two operations were performed and other heroic treatment applied, necrosis re- Sulted—that is, ulceration of the bone tis- sues extending to all the bones on the right side of the face. The disease has now eaten its way through the eve bone to the brain. Therefore, unless a miracle is performed, insanity and then death must result. So says Dr. Mercer. But the chances are that as soon as the brainis attacked the patient will lose consciousnes and finally pass away without suffering. Kivery remedy known to science has been employed to save this unfortunate young woman. The tooth was extracted ja vear ago last June. [n the following |month. when it was seen that her trouble wae of a serious nature, Mrs, Slack was taken to a [Marion (O.) sanitarium. Six) weeks after her arrival at that institution the first operation was performed, a danger- ous and excruciatingly painful ohne, for Mrs. Slack refused to take opiates. The operation was from the inside of the mouth and consisted of the removal of the diseased tissue of the antrum. A cavity wus left large enough to insert a yard of lodoform gauze, one Inch in width. ‘But this was all to no purpose, The dis- ease spread to the eyeboge, and eight months ago the patient went through. an- Other operation, more painful and more dangerous than the firet. Long before that the attending physician had marveled at the bravery and the nerve of the little woman. Though racked with intense pain day after day and night after night, she refused opiates that would have alleviated her sutfering, because she knew reaction. She told the was determined to get well and that she would rather red t than escape pain at the cost of undermining her constitution. She was well aware, too, that the constant Use of op.ates would eventuaily affect her mind. So this woman suffered for 1? long months and bore her pain ahd fought off utter eXx- haustion, because her will was stronger than the disease. There was, indeed, one way of saying Mrs. Slack’s life, which, as the physicians told her, whén the second operation brought no relief, was at stake—namely, to eut away the antrum and evebone. This. of eburse would have resulted in horrible disfigure- ment. It would have left onessida of the patient's face as flat as a board. | Mrs. Slack would not hear of it. She quietly but firmly objected to any Kind of an opet: that would leave its marks on her fealures A few days ago, when it became ADI arent that Mrs. Slack had not long to liv was brought to her residence at 2116 street, Oakland, in this city, the well-appointed, refined home where ; spent four happy years with her hugi Dr. Mercer, who had attended the patient the danger of the doctors that she before she was removed to the Ohio |Sanj- tarium, was again calied in, but he saw at once that in all probability she was beyond human help. Mrs. Slack’s condition became so alarming that Dr. C, E, Sawver physician-in-chief of the Marion Sanita- rium, was summoned by telegraph. After a thorough examination of the patient and a long consultation between the two doc- tors the conclusion was reached that the disease was eating its way to the brain. either through the eye socket or through the bone just behind the ear. Then a most remarkable discovery was made. Mrs. Slack was no longer suffer- ing the terrible pain that had afflicted her for over a year. Having rallied from the sinking spell she whispered to her husband that her pain was gone. The physician at first thought that her mind had become affected. ut this fear was soon dispelled. Mrs. Siack answered rationally all ques- tions that were put to her. The only theory that could be advanced was that the tissues of all the bones on the right side of the face and the nerves were dead eaten away by the disease, and that. conse. quently, there could be no more pain. How. ever, an extrgordinary sensitiveness was noticed in the patient. She complained of the noises in the house and outside, though they were only the ordinary sounda which she had never complained of before. <A word, spoken above a whisper, seemed to cut her like a knife. : Dr. Mercer says that the torture which Mrs. Slack had suffered would have killed an ordinary woman six months ago. ‘Tt je the most remarkable case of will power that has ever come under my observance,” he added.

TOTAL IS LARGER YEARLY. Evil Is Worst in the Cities, but Even the Country Districts Show a Steady Increase. INDIANAPOLIS, Ind., July 2%.—The dis- cussion growing out of the recent Belmont marriage and the assertion of the Con- gregational clergyman that he would not have performed the ceremony had he known of the prior divorce of one ‘of the parties, has renewed interest in the sub- ject of divorces in this State and given an impetus to the determination of the minis- ters ‘to work for more stringent laws, The annual reports of circuit clerks re- garding marriage and divorce show clearly that the number of the latter is increasing year by year. Ten years ago the number of divorcees in the State was 10 per cent of the marriages, but Jast year the number had in. creased to 11.16 for the entire State. In some counties the. per cent reached as high as 2, and in all having large cities it was consid- erably ubove the average. The total num- ber of marriages solemnized in Indiana in 1898 was 25,043 and the total number of di- vorces granted was 2896, an average of 31.35 to ‘the county. Of the totsl 3108 were granted to the wife and 793 to the husband, or three times as many to the former as to the latter. Niost of those who are looking into the subject with a view to asking legislation are convinced that there should be a re- turn to old princhples and that divorees should not be granted except for scriptural causes and that the party by whose fault the separation is caused should not be al- lowed to remarry. The investigations that in this State show that the increase of divorce thas taken place not only in the cities, but in the purely agricultural coun- ties as well. In many of these latter dis- tricts the old idea of repugnance to be- ing known as a “grass widow” or “grass widower” stil! obtains, and in such the number of divorces are below the average for the State, the number increasing stead- ily up the seale to those counties having have been made large citics, where it reaches its acme. For example, the counties of Allen, Marion, Vanderbure:. Vigo and Wayne contain populous cities, and in these five the mMar- rianges last year uggregated 4234 and the divorces 713. This shows a divorcee per cent of 16.8,° 0r considerably over the average for the entire State. ‘Within a few years two men from Chi- cago have secured divorces in the courts of this city, and in each case it afterward developed that the plaintiff had no legal residence In the State, and the decree was promptly aside. A few days ago it was brought to the attention of one of the local judges that a woman had been In- duced to personate-the defendant in a di- vorce Case, and the attorney who managed the affair and the personating woman are sed under arrest. Passing to the counties of ‘Delaware, (Madison, Grant, Howard and Biackford, all of which are manufacturing centers, but with a smaller population than those enumerated above, there were 3183 mar- riages solemnized jn the five in 1898 and 257 divorces granted. This shows a per cent of 11.9, and is practically the average for the State, and the falling off. as com- pared with the larger counties, ehaws pro- portionately less infelicity, and likewise, perhaps, a decrease in opportunities for perpetrating fraud upon the courts. The agricultural counties of Benton, Car- roll, Gibson, Harrison and Laporte make a very creditable showing. The total number of marriages in these in 1898 was 1098 and the total divorces granted %&, the per cent being 8.9, or nearly three below the aver- age. These figures ho'd g00d in each in- stance when appiled to iarger numbers, and enforce fhe conclusion that the agricultural sections are freer from family discord, or. where inharmony exists, it is not brought before the world through the medium of the divorce courts. The ministers of the city are eonvinced that the ease with which divorces are ee- cured has much to do with the increasing number of applications, and is one factor in the breaking up of families, for parties, knowing that even frivolous causes are sometimes suffcient to insure a legul eep- aration, magnify their matrimonial ills and rush into the courts to secure the legal balm. Another evil which they realize is that divorcees are becoming so common that they are no longer’ considered a disgrace, and for that reason members of the church and othera of recognized standing in this and other cites do not hesitate to appeal to the courts to break the bands that other Wise might be endured. Less than a week ago the courts granted adivorce to a young woman who had been married leas than one year. The wedding was a brilliant affair, and both of the par- tles belonged to the most fashionable so- clety in the city. The husband stayed out late at night, and on one occasion when the wife wished to discharge a servant he in- terposed to prevent it. This was the prin- cipal ‘cruel’ treatment proved, but it Was sufficient to secure the divorce. Vanderburg County has the highest per cent of divorces granted in the last year and leads the column with 2. Allen comes next with 19 and Marion followe with 14. Clark County has the amallest per cent of divorces and the largest per cent of mar- riages, there being 1358 marriages and only 2% divorces tn that county last year. This might be supposed to represent much long- éuffering upon the part of husbandea and wives in Clark, but the fact is that nearly all the marriages are between eloping cou- ples who return to their homes, and, if divorced atall, do not cumber the records of the Clark County courts with their com- plaints, Compulsory. ‘& ee a le tt i Cll Cl Ll LLL LLL ALLL AL From the Indianapolis Journal, Prison Visitor: Waan't it ‘ees a A AI OT SOE izinglv spi +f $2.00 dozen; CAN....+-++e0 CONRAD'S, 618 Loc 2712 Praakila AY.

The department store license commission- ership. would be a bonanza to the appointee if there were not so many contingencies in- volved tn the collection of the licenses. The law provides a tax of from $300 to $90, at the option of the commissioner, on e&a>h of 2 classes of goods usually found in depart- ment stores. ‘Only such stores employ 15 persons or more and such as are located in St. Louls, Kansas City and St. Joseph-are included under the law. The commissioner who collects this license tax is to receive 19 per cent of the collections, the State to receive the balance. The commiss'oner must pay-all the expenses of enforcing the law. Its enforcement will certainly: be econ- tested to the last extremity, which means that Mr. Brady can collect nothing for at least two years and then runs the risk of not collecting at all and of having to pay all costs out of his own pocket.

FENT FARNHAM’S CELLAR IN- VADED BY A BRUTE BEAST. HE WOULD NOT BE CHASED. Three Days of Baiting and Force Failed to Move the Dog and a Policeman Was Called In. Fent Farnham, advertising agent for Manion Park in summer and the Columbia Theater in winter, has more respect and less esteem for dogs than he had a week ago. When aman has piloted a strong-willed harness horse over a _ circuit of county fairs and always got inside the money and yet has never given the horse a Mark, he is generally considered to be a person of great reserve force. When a man has managed a comic opera company so adroitly that the prima donna will share her dressing room with the sou- brette and the leader of the Amazon march, he is looked upon as a prodigy ol! tact, The "man who Nas done both is regarded as a genius. Mr. Farnham is such aman. Yet a lOW- browed, half-bred bulldog, with bow 1legs, a short tail and a large, practicable mouth took possession of the ccellar of the Farn- ham residence, 14560 Webster avenue, and nerf it for three days, despite the blandish- ments and threats of the proprietor. The siege began last Friday morning. Farnham got up eariy, because there Was a gathering of aogs in the’ back yard that wouldn’t let him sleep. The dogs seemed deeply interested in something and paid no attention to him when he yeiled at them. He armed himself with the tamily broom and sallied forth to disperse the invaders. He swatted a St. Bernard in the ribs with the big end of the broom and caught an Irish setter on the nose with the return stroke, All the dogs fied but one—the low- browed, half-bred bulldog hereinbefore re- ferred to, He sat at the threshoid of the cellar, wearing a placid smile that exposed his summer pants. Farnham swung for him with the broom and thé dog dropped down the cellar. Farnham tollowed. The dog took refuge behind a pile of old furniture. Farnham punched him with the broom. The dog seized it with his teeth and shook it sav- agely, at the same time emitting a grow! in DD major that sent a cold cnill down Farnham’s spine. The dog released the broom and karnham made overtures for peace. “Good doggie! Nice doggie! now and make friends with won't hurt you. It’s a nice along now and we'll give doggie bone.” The dog evinced his contempt of the benevolent assimilation proposition by dart- ing out and snapping at Farnham’s ankles, Farnham struck at him with the broom and broke an arm of a hair cloth easy chair. The dog fell back in good order to his intrenched position behind the furni- ture. Farnham punched him again and he snatched the broom from Farnham and charged again. Farnham dodged around the crippled arm chair and retreated pre- cipitately upstairs. He established a censorship over his ut- terances and blue-penciled his account of his skirmish with the dogs, so that no in- formation of his repulse in the cellar reached the family. Just as he was leaving the house his wife called to him that there was a strange dog in the cellar. “All right; I'll kick him out,” said Parn- ham. Grasping a mop handle he cauttously en- tered the cellar. A deep bass growl greeted him. ; He went upstairs and told his wife not to about ‘the dog; there wasn’t any- in the cellar he could hurt and he go out of his own accord after Besides, it would be cruel to il- use the poor brute. When Mr. Farnham returned home that Come along Fent.

I don’t want to be rough with him; bage wagon to come here; we don't want dead dogs poisoning the gtmosphere our little home.’”’ Farnham thought the risk of the dog Mrs. she let the subject drop. Saturday morning she saw the dog in the back yard. She seized a broom and went out to chase the brute into the street. The dog had no yearning for the public thoroughfare. He saw Mrs. Farnham past the cellar and again in- himself behind the _ furniture. Farnham went to chase him out and he entered trenched Mrs. Mr. then to kill the could find the ax he decided he Farnham but before ea and had to hurry down town to keep t.

Then Mrs. Farnham lost patience and sent for a policeman. The officer came and viewed the dog contemptuously as the brute lay In the cel. lar apparently meek and inoffensive as a fishing worm. ‘‘Ain't there any man around this houge?’* the policeman. “No, there isn't,’” said Mre. Farnham with some acerbity, her vexation having mometarily overcome her regard for ac- euracy, “I thought not; any lady covld throw that little dog out,”” gaid the policeman. “You ought to get married, ma'am.” Mrs. Farnham biustered and said. “'T wish you'd please throw him out. We're afraid of him.” The valiant officer advanced on the dog and prodded him with hie club. The dog growled and rushed at the policeman. who went upstairs. He admits that he wasn't afraid, but it Was very close in the cellar and he has trouble with his throat. After his throat got better the policeman got a clothes prop and returned to the cellar. He etood on an old bureau. and, with the clothes prop, punched the dog till the brute succumbed to superior force and fled from the cellar and out of the yard. When the policeman came from the cellar, flushed with victory, Mre. Farnham sak, ‘T am afraid | deceived you.

Each ie always claiming something and charging crookedness or villainy up to the other. One shouts that the times are bad and the other that they are good, and between the two it is hard to tell which is in the right. As a matter of fact times are better and the American workman of to-day is better off than the American workman of a hune dred years ago. (iz | History shows that in 1799, or just a hune dred years ago, the American laborer who, , At the end of the week, took home fifteen shillings to his family was the envy of his fellows. On such a pittance {t was only by thé Strictest economy that he kept Ais chil- dren from starvation and himself from jail. ti Despite the statement of those who claim that these are prosperous times, and that the American workman of to-day is better off than his contemporary of over a. hun- dred years ago, one thing is certain, and that is that even to-day the laborer fs poorly paid, and that his life Is generally a hard struggle through all the days of - the year. . But in some respects the workman of to-day holds the edge on the workman of a century ago. In the latter's days medical treatment was at a premium and the poorer person, when peeding medicine, went to the village store and on its shelves, stored away among heaps of shoes, hats, balls of twine, packages of seed and flitches of bacon, | sought for some simple drug to mend hig ~ ills, The village physician was beyond the reach of his purse. In St. Louts, at least, the workman of to- day, whose home is visited by sickness, oF who is ailing himself, is at no such disad- vantage as his co-laborer of a century ago. y Here there ts a band of trained and skiliful physicians who give to all who are sick and ailing one whole week's treat¢ ment absolutely free of all charge. This free week which they give to all un« fortunates is in reality a free week, theré being no ¢harges of any character whatso- ever, but a free and unsolicited aid to all who are in trouble. Patients living at a distance from St. Louis ang unable to come to the office may have the free week's treatment and medicines sent to them bg writing for it. . COPELAND MEDTOAL INSTITUTH, DR. W. H.

HIS REASON FOR NOT ACCEPTING AN INVITATION. Seys in a Letter That It Would Be an Absurdity to Greet Distinguished Men on Altgeld Demo- crats’ Authority. CHICAGO, July 18.—Mayor Carter Harri- son will not address the free silver gather- ing at the Auditorium Thursday night. His refusal to speak is based on the ‘‘obscure’”’ origin of the meeting. Efforts are being made by the Harrison leaders to induce as many of the National Committeemen as possible to ignore the meeting. It was said that fully one-half of them would not go near it. They are be- ing informed of the purpose to influence them into doing something which does not properly come within the scope of the com- mittee’s function. Mayor Carter H. Harrison to-day sent the foilowing letter to the committee in charge of arrangements for the Democratic meelt- ing at the Auditorium July 2: “W. F. Cooling, Esq., Chairman Commit- tee of rangements: Dear Sir—Replying to your favor of the l4th inst., in which you ask me to deliver an address of wel- come at the Auditorium July 20 to the Na- tional Democratic Committee and ‘a large number of other prominent Democrats of America,’ I regret my inability to accept. In ordinary circumstances I should be only too glad, both as Mayor of Chicago and as a Democrat, to welcome the National Com- mittee or any number of prominent Demo- erats to Chicago, the city in which the platform of 189 was framed and in which ’ J. Bryan was elevated to his present Saati; of the nationa!] Democracy. ‘T cannot but think, however, that it would be an absurdity to welcome these distinguished men on the authority of a self-constituted committee, whose person- nel is too obscure to be known even in its home city. Had this meeting been organized under the direction of Democrats of regu- lar type and known party standing, it would have afforded me great pleasure‘to be present. “In the existing circumstances, while thanking you for the honor, I must beg leave to be excused. Respectfully yours, “CARTER H. HARRISON.’ When a copy of Mayor Harrison's letter was shown former Gov. Altgeld, he said: “T am sorry the Mayor looks at it that way. He has made a grave mistake. He has lost a golden opportunity. Should he come to, the meeting and make a rousing Democratic speech he would place himself at the head of the Democratic party of the State. But he has lost the chance now. I'm ay? for it.”’ en Mr. Cooling read the Mayor's let- ter he made the following statement: “We have given the young man in the Toe, | Hall the opportunity of his life, which as failed to appreciate. “There is a tide in the affairs of men which taken at the flood, leads on to fortune— the son of Carter Harrison has ceased to be a Democratic possibility.’ The Altgeld forces have been re-en- forced by the Chicago platform Democrats ff New York. Wills J. Abbott. the first emissary to arrive, reported at headquar- ters at the Unity Building, in the after- noon. He comes as one of a committee of the silver party In New York to appear before the national body and get a hear- ing as to what is the situation in that State. James R. Brown, who was toastmaster of the “dollar dinner,’”’ and George W. Thompson are the other members of the delegation. They will arrive to-day. Mr, Abbott said that a great majority of the rank and file of the party in New York is in favor of the ‘“i6 to 1” issue and of W. J. Byran for President. ‘Croker, Hill and Murphy, the leaders,’ he continued, ‘‘are opposed to free silver and Bryan, but they do not represent the sentiment of a majority of the voters, The three spokesmen will demand that the ma- jority be given recognition by the national committee, so that it may have some ex- cuse for sending a contesting deleg ation to the national convention next year. PEYTON SUED FOR DIVORCE Millionaire Mine Owner of the North- west Charged With Disturbing His Wife in St. Louis. SPOKANE, Wash., July 18.—A suit has been filed in the Superior Court against Col. I. N. Peyton, a millicnaire mine owner and until recently President of the Ex- change National Bank of this city, and whose wife and daughters are leaders in society. The plaintiff to the action is Mrs. Helen M. Payton, a former wife of (Col. Peyton, who is now residing in Denver. She alleges in her complaint that she mar- ried Col. Peyton in Champaign County, Ill., in 1869, and that In 1878 he took her to St. Louis, where he deserted her. In 1886 she learned he was living here under the assumed name of Col. George H. Mor. gan, where he pretended to have married Victor Houghton, with whom he is now living unlawfully. She alleges that she was defrauded in a sé@ttlement had with Col. Feyton, in which she was to receive one- half of the community property. She now demands a half-interest in his present wealth, estimated at $1,500,000. RHODES’ BACK AT CAPE TOWN. Committee Meets Him and He Is Cheered in the Streets. CAPE TOWN, July 18.—Cecil Rhodes, for- merly Premier of Cape C olony, arrived here to-day. He was welcomed by a reception committee composed of influential citizens, and enthusiastically cheered as he travers the streets.

Paris, Philadelphia and Buffalo are at present setting St. Lauis a good example in pushing preparations for great expo- sitions. It would be difficult to say which of these three cities is Showing the most enterprise in advertising its coming Fair @nd itself. Philadelphia is doing such zealous and up-to-date work in this respect that she can no longer be looked upon as siow. Of course Paris is arousing the whole world as 10 the glories of her big show. But little Buffalo—littie only by comparison—is “rushing things” as she knows so well how to, in order to make her Pan-American exposition in 1901 an event that will be unique and unprecedented. This is the age of great expositions. Each of such enter- prises makes the following one more sure of vuccess, instead of robbing it of its glory. The experience of these three Fairs will tend to eliminate errors in the management of St. Louis’ greatest Fair of all, and not one of them will encroach upon it or dim its luster. There three fairs will but whet the appetite and the curiosity of the world’s intelligent sight-seeing millions to Visit the Louisiana Puichase Celebration World’s Fair at St. Louis in 1903.

The voters can amend the constitution through the refer- | endum, but amendments must be agreed to by a majority of the electors voting and also by a majority of the States form- ‘ing the federation. The possibilities of this big section of the British Empire under a united government can be better realized when it is remembered that the new commonwealth contains 2,972,862 square miles and has a population of only 3,183,237. The fed- erated Australia would seem to have almost unlimited room for healthy internal growth. eo = = —_— _ = “You will be surprised when you hear how many of our soldiers were killed in this war,’’ writes the Chief Surgeon of the supply ship Celtic, now in the Philippines. This ‘s another evidence of the Administration’s suppression of un- favorable news. No news coming through the Government can be depended upon. What a pitiful spectacle the Adminis- tration is making of this great country! — a THE MANILA ROUND ROBIN. ‘The round robin issued by the newspaper correspondents: in the Philippines places the censorship before the country in a vivid light. The issue is sharply made and the Adminis- tration must retreat or stand condemned. , The story told in this protest is worse even than any one in the country had imagined. Reports have not only been suppressed. They have been garbled. The correspondents say that their dispatches have been doctored to such an extent that they are utterly unreliable and misleading; in effect, that they are lies. To excuse himself, Gen. Otis tells them that uncensored news “would alarm the people at home” and “‘have the people of the United States by the ears.” To Mr. Creelman, who anticipated the round robin with an in- dependent protest, the General said that he ‘did not pro- pose to allow the American public to know anything about this campaign that will agitate or excite it. Any*man who Writes anything about this campaign contrary to my orders will be exnelled from the Philipnvines.”’ Very good. Let them be expelled. No news is better than lies. But the President and the men who are running his Administration in the interest of the syndicates, will have to face a tornado of popular wrath, the like of which never before was seen in this country. The people are sovereign and the unworthy public servants who try to keep them in the dark concerning their own affairs will be promptly sent into dishonorable retirement. +--+. www In a communication to the Post-Dispatch a dairy expert re- ports that in testing some samples of milk sold in St. Louis he found them to contain a large percentage of preservatives, such as formalin or formaldehyde, salicylic acid and boracic acid and to.be unfit for human consumption. Some of the samples were pelow the city standard. A large proportion of the cream was extracted and a large quantity of condensed milk, in addition to the preservatives, was found in the cream. One sainple is represented as “ropy.’’ It behooves milk con- sumers to know something of what they are buying. A little care on their 9wn part will do much to protect them. toe “Any man who writes anything about this campaign con- trary to my orders, will be expelled from the Philippines,” declares Gen. Otis. There could be-no clearer evidence than this of the failure of our unjust war upon the Filipinos. Wher the truth cannot be told of what has been going on in the islands,-we may be sure that we have not accomplished anything. — Russell A. Alger is an absurd person.

One of the leading manufacturers of St. Louis whose active co-operation and influence was bespoken by the Post- Dispatch as a valuable factor in sup- port of the World’s Fair is Mr. A. H. Handlan, president and general man- ager of the M. M. Buck Manufacturing Co. Mr. Handlan is an able and suc- cessful business man, who has built up a great industry by energy and acumen. He is a power in the manufacturing and mercantile community. Although he has not been in the working forces of the World’s Fair, his keen perception of business possibilities has brought him to look upon the project as of vital im- portance and great value to St. Louis and to recognize now the necessity of harmonious support on the part of all St. Louisans and St. Louis interests. Mr. Handlan’s letter is an inspiration ta other business men. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. I am glad to ‘see the interest shown by your people in the World's Fair movement. You have hit the nail on the head at the right time, and I hope you will keep up your good work, shaking up some of our good friends, who only need to have their attention called to the matter, for with the combined effort |of 17 States and Territories, not including Texas, which will be with us heart and soul, as was fully demonstrated to the w I believe we can safely count on over 40, 0( riter on a recent trip through that State, 0,000 entrances through the gates, while Chicago registered about 26,000,000, and that during a panic year, when most everything was in bad shape financially. unlikely disaster, and with the matcrial we If we do not meet with such have here to workupsuch an enterpri as our Exposition and Fair Association have shown by their many years of sie- cess, comparing the life of them with other cities in the matter of such displays, we are bound to win. I’ fully believe that the World’s Fair, with the combination of these States and Territories all working for it, is bound to be a grand financial suic- cess, and that all subscriptions made will be fully paid back to the subscribetfs, either directly or indirectly, as our population will be increased fully 100,000, and no doubt by 1905 we can get up to the million mark. I am heartily in accord with this movement, and think every man, woman and child should come up, contribute their mites and put their shoulders to the wheel. WE HAVE IT AND MUST MAKE A SUCCESS OF IT, AS A FAIL- URE WOULD COST US THREE TIMES FIVE MILLION DOLLARS’ WORTH OF HARM. Yours very truly, A. H. HANDLAN. MUST BE A SUCCESS. Missouri Voters Will See That the World’s Fair Constitutional Amendment Is Passed. Charles W. Green in the Brookfield Argus. The Argus regrets very much to see now and then a laggard spirit not only upon the part of a few Missourians, but of some St. Loulsans as well, over the idea of holding, in 1903, the greatest World’s Fair ever seen. We heartily agree with Mr. Howard Elliott, the well-Known general manager of the great Burlington Route rafilway system, who forcefuliy expressed his sentiments in a St. Louis daily paper the other day ina column interview. Mr. Elliott's interview wtil doubtless stimulate Missourians out- side of St. Louis toward doing their duty not only to St. Leuis, but to the common- wealth; but St. Louisans, one and all, should need no stimulating, should need no interviews, no appeals to do their whole duty. St. Louis cannot afford to lag now in her great undertaking. Every citizen of the grand old metropolis should earnestly and enthusiastically support Chairman Francis, Mr. Kennard, Mr. Chouteau, Mr. Elliott and other men who have been push- ing factors in the great project which, if successfully carried out, will make St. Louis, and consequently Missouri, known of all the world. There should be no knockers within the gates of St. Louis. And in 1903 St. Louis should know no politics, no factions, no con- tentions for supremacy. All] should be lead- ers and all should be followers. St. Louis has done nobly well so far; there should be no cessation now, no hesitancy, no parley- ing. no monkeying. ; Let St. Louis be loyal to herself, and Missouri and interior Missouri will be loyal, too. Missourlans are proud of St. Louis, as they have reason to be. They want to see St. Louis go,Chicago and Paris one better in 1903. They want to sec, and by their votes will see, that the constitutional amendment carries, and regardless of party are anxious for and will work to the end that both State conventions next year in- derse the amendment proposition. The Ar- gus has talked with many men the past few menths who are in the habit of taking part either in Democratic or Republican conventions. Upon this proposition they are of one mind, area unit. From the time, Jan. 10, 1899, when Gov. Stephens called a meeting at St. Louis at which were dele- gates from the 14 States of the Louisiana Purchase, to the present time, Missourians have watched the movement grow. They have seen those enterprising St. Louisans raise over $4,000,000. have read with as- surance that Congress will do much more; expect to see Missouri herself come down with a million when the time comes, and with all this in view it is painful.to hear that there are a few men in St. Louis who are so selfish, who have not the interest of their city at theart as they should have, and are disposed to throw water on the World’s Fair idea. But the World’s Fair at St. Louis in 1903 will be a world beater, just the same. And Missouri and Missourians will be with St. Louis. They love St. Louis and are proud she is the metropolis of her soil. In the show business they want to see Chi- cago, the ever boasting Chicago, a “knocked out’’ champion, and force her to hand over the belt. The-St. Louis World's Fair must and will surpass all similar un- dertakings cf the past. St. Louis and Mis- souri are great. The Fair will make them greater. Pikers Are Glad. From the Calumet Banner, Clarksville, Mo. Mr. Howard Elliott, general manager of the Burlington Route system—‘‘our rail- road’’—has written a letter to the Post- Dispatch strongly commending the St. Louis World's Fair enterprise. Mr. Elliott is a man of business capacity who is able to see the advantages that would come from a great memorial exposition, and his declaration that the fair ‘‘must succeed” has the right ring. With such interests as Mr. Elliott represents working for the Fair there need be no doubt in any mind about its success. We Pikers gre glad to see ‘“‘our road’ taking the initiative in this matter. Nothing Too Big for St. Louis. From the Chillicothe (Mo.) Constitution. The World’s Fair fund is steadily grow- ing. There is nothing too, big for St. Louis, DOCTOR EDNA. knew what had come to young Dr. Channing in the last three years. Reared in luxury, he found himself one bright morning penniless and alone. His father died, and from every quarter of the globe, it seemed to young Channing, credit- ors came forth, but he paid out to the last dollar, the last cent and came through, as one of his friends put it, a ruined but an honest man. But the question of Dr. Edna Stapleton as to what he had been doing with himseif while he was abroad did not embarrass him in the least. “I? ©. the sitren we call fate has not sung a very pleasant song for me lately, but I really believe the lesson she has com- pelled me to learn has been beneficial to me, I hope so, at least.” “That is well,” she replied. ‘“‘You have not given me time to congratulate you, but vou must allow me to now.

Cousin Harry said: “Channing caught at last!’ and Edith said: ‘Who caught him? and I said’’—— “Yes,” asked Channing, leaning forward, “what did you say?’ “Well, we were at breakfast, and in ad- dition to asking for some more cream for mv coffee—we were at Berlin that year, and they never gave me as much cream as | liked—I said that the man who had mar- ried Bessie Arnold had excellent taste.

I am a young girl, just 18, and have a young gentleman friend, who meets me once in a while. He sometimes talks of other girls, and it makes me feel hurt. I love him dearly, and think if he don't tell me he loves me I will die. So please give me advice. W. H. M. No, you won't die, dear. A wise man once told me that men (and women) have died from time to time and worms have eat- en them, but not for love. Just be a good girl, make yourself agreeable and don't worry about the other girls. A BLACKSMITH’'S LOVE. I am a blacksmith by trade, and 28 yom of age. and haye my own home and shop. am in love with a poor widow lady that is my senior by 15 years. The lady's age is 43. I have a married sister that is 24 years of age, and | morse to a man of years, and this sister objects to my getting married to thie lady, as she tells me that it is not right for a man to marry a woman older than himeelf. I have told my sister that age makes no difference where two persons like each other. Why is it that a man of 60 can marry a young woman and nothing is said about it? jas not a young man the same right to fall in love with an old lady and marry her as the old man has with a young woman? BLACKSMI Evansville, Ind. : Of course you have a right to marry any woman who will accept you. But it isn’t always expedient to act upon the most un- doubted right. Your sister's case is not in potnt. A woman of 2% married to a man of 60 can look forward to becoming an inter- esting widow full of the potency and power of womanhood. But the young man mar- ried to ‘an old woman—at best he will becoMe a widower, and widowers are the most in- tensely uninteresting persons in the world.

Bishop Fallows seems to think that the devil is the instigator of cheap prices of labor. Now as the devil is the father of lies, tt is more than likely he has some- thing to do with the Bishop's thoughts, and I will try to show by an illustration that cheap labor is the qvolution of a natural law. A shoe factory pays $12 per week for hands who ao good ‘work and are satisfied. A smart Yankee with improved machinery Starts a factory, making the same shoe with half the hands. In a little while ane other improvement in machinery displaces more hands and employes children to do man's work. Convict labor is also eme ployed making shoes. Vhat is a man going to do? Go to 6 farm? Work for the su rt of his family at 30 cents a day, as I for the tenant of a bishop? If he beg he is arrested; if steal, he is arrested, and the bishop. says the devil is at the bottom of rices fo labor.

It was with purely social intent, of course, and any official business discussed Was entirely by the way; anybody who was there will tell you so. When the feast of reason and flow of soul that preceded the cheese and coffee was well under way, Mr. Hawes said to Assistant Chief Pickel: “Did you see the Post-Dispatch this after- noon ?’’ “Yes, I saw it,’’ satd the assistant chief, with a elick of his jaws. .

The tests then made by the official experts showed that Dr. Price’s Cream Baking Powder was the purest, strong- est, most healthful of baking powders, and a diploma and medal were awarded accordingly, Surely such testimony must establish the use of Dr. Price’s Cream Baking Pow- der in every home where pure food and economy are appreciated. cd Wore.—The alum baking powders were ex- a from consideration at this great t because they are deemed 2 chu oak tama Ae : rN oe i as CET ae eae ose o Pome a8 ee : -. ‘ . - 4 P\ : a, ; +> ep , , Sompetitive .; oa : Ae ee Fe NOW ON TAP AT ALL SALOONS, BURTON ALE AND PORTER BREWING CO.S FINE ALE AND PORTER.
