MURDERER ENDS HIS LIFE. DOUBLE TRAGEDY IN THE VIL- LAGE OF ATHENS. Dead Man Was a Devoted Admirer of the Girl and Friends Say That He Killed Her in Despair. Bpecial to the Post-Dispatch. QUINCY, IIL, July 22. — News reached here this afternoon of a double tragedy at Athens, Mo., last night, when B. L. Hull, and fatally wounded Miss Florence Gor- don, at her door, and a few minutes later killed himself. The injured young woman died this afternoon. Miss Gordon was the accepted belle of the village, young, pretty and vivacious. Her admirers included the best young men of the county. Hull was one of the most that she showed him preference, or that she encouraged his attentions. It may have been this that caused the young farmer to stop at the Gordon cot- | tage, cail Florence out, and as she extend- lung. Hull stood stolidly watching her as «he tottered toward the house, grasped at the doorway for support, and failing, fell to down the road and entered the woods. Half an hour later a posse of searching citizens found his body near the roadside. He had éent a bullet into his own brain. Miss Gordon made no statement, so her parents allege, after being carried into the house, and they profess ignorance as to say it was jealousy or the knowledge that his love could not be returned. ZELAYA 18. IN. “DISTRESS Latest Revolt in Nicaragua Compels Him to Call.for More Troops and a Loan, MOBILE, Ala., July #2—Mail advices steamer indicate that the latest revolt in Nicaragua in the Meridional Department, is causing the Administration of President Zelaya serious concern. Since the rising Gen. Reyes in the Bluefields region there have been a series of unsuccessful atten?ts against Zelaya, that he has subdued with aid from the Liberal admipistration of Honduras and Salvador. It is raid in a let- ter received in this city yesterday that Ze- laya had issued an-order for a loan of $500,- (00 to be raised immediately and that his proclamation instructs the department com- mandants to insist that every available resi- dent of Nicaragua shall acsist the republic without delay. The letter adds that the censorship exer- cised mainly by governmental control of the telegraph lines in the republic makes revolution in sent to the press of this country from the bordering republics not in sympathy with Zelaya, but that the fact of the forced levy tells eloquently the distress of Zelaya’s Administration. FIERCE FIRE IN CHICAGO Flames Were Confined With the Great- est Difficulty to One Five- Story Building. CHICAGO, July 22.—A fierce fire broke out in the five-story building at the north- east corner of Wabash avenue and Monroe street at 1 o’clock to-day, and for a titme the block. By 2 o’clock the fire department had the fire under control and confined it to the one building. The structure was oc- cupied by Carroll & Lancaster, carpet deal- ers. The loss will be heavy. It is estimated that the loss will aggre- gate $180,000, as follows: Stock of Carroll & Lancaster, $75,000; cupied by Carroll & Lancaster, $90,000. The losses are fully covered by ineurance.

CLEVELAND, 0O., July 22—The first clash of the mobs with the military oc- curred this evening at the Wilson avenue ' barns of the street railway company. A big crowd assembled and began to jeer the Soldiers. This continued for some time, when stone throwing began. That was fol- lowed by an order for the troops to charge, and they went at the mob in earnest. The rioters were driven helter-skelter, running into alleys and doors to escape the bayo- nets. No one was hurt. One man was ar- rested. At about the same time a mob inter- fered with the running of cross-town cars on another part of Wilson avenue.

With 500 troops under arme to back the force and with mecre troops in reserve if they are needed, the aut®orities to-night believe they have control of the etrike situation. The calling out of four companies of infantry and @ troop of cav- alry to-day to reinforce the two battalions of naval reserves who were ordered under arms yésterday, was prompted by the out- breaks of anarchy last night and night be- fure. Three companies of troops are on guard to-night at the barns and power plants of the company.

The car was in a blockade and the boys were jeering non-union motormen and con- ductors. The driver of a wagon for a wholesale grocery house was shot by a non-union car conductor this afternoon and wounded, The car was passing a grocery store in South Brooklyn before which the wagon was etanding. The driver stooped to pick up a potato, as if to throw at the car. The conductor drew a revolver and fired, the bullet passing through the man’s neck and lodging in his shoulder.

The Press Committee of the strikers issued to-day an appeal to the public, which, among other things, contains the following: ‘We believe that force can be applied in many instances, and that it is absolutely essential in the present case. ernment protects life and property, but does not regard labor in any light what- ever.

Bipecial to the Post-Dispatch. NEW YORK, July 22.—In a big, comfort- able armchair in the Pleasantville Sanitari- um, just across the hills from White Plains, N. Y.. there sits day after day a woman, tall and stately, of kindly visage, almost . motherly. There is a little gray in her hair and a wrinkle or two on her cheek, but she is in the prime of life. She wears an exquisite succession. Two maids answer her every call. The Waldorf-Astoria could not serve her a more dainty dinner than the one she | iment will‘ also be considered. takes each day alone. Across the green hills she can see the towers and turrets of a country mansion whose green lawns are lapped by the Sound. That is her mansion. Those towers she once mounted to get the view. Those lawns ‘were her delight. It is a millionaire’s coun- try villa and she is a millionaire’s wife. But she will never set foot in that gar- den again. Shé@ is the wife of Henry M. Flagler, Standard Oil magnate, railway king, F.or- ida emperor. His millions cannot buy what is the only thing he wants in life—reason for this woman. nounced hopelessly insane! Mrs. Flagler can never go out again into the world she loved so dearly. The physicians have said it. So day after day she sits, lapsing more and more into mental blindness—less able each n about her, day to comprehend what goes o celienit health, you can serve the country while her husband’s millions roll on and on. For ten years the husband had hope. His money poured out like water in the belief | that he might bring back reason to its throne. Physician after physician was tried, there were baths and electricity and regulations provide that the President shall trips here and there and everywhere, medl- cines, rest-cures, everything; but all to no purpose. Last week with bowed head Mr. Flagler received the news of the in- evitable—there was no hope! Each day sees his wife's weak grasp on reason a little weaker and her memory slowly fad- ing.» But she does not know. Twenty years ago Henry M. Flagler Was | naturally greatly interested in the person- a widower. His wife had died leaving him a little boy. At that time he was no mil- lionaire. But he had risen from a very humble walk in life and people were be- ginning to point him out as @ man who would succeed. He married again. His second wife was Miss Shrouds, of Philadelphia—she sre and happy in the husband whosc future looked so bright. Her father was an Episcopal pees fae ~_— pry a 6mall sal to support his large family.

Winlike many of the rich, the wife of this millionaire could not enjoy wealth alone. Her heart was as big as outdoors. She must have friends to enjoy it with her. On the vacht, on the private car, at her villa, at her own home, it was the same—lavisn hospitality for all. The guests were made to feel as much at home while the Flagler money was being poured out for them as they might in their own more modest homes. The Flagler entertainments were 4s lavish as any given anywhere by even the richest. Ten years ago Henry M. Flagler decided | to attack Florida. He owned most of the railways there; he wanted more. “The Spaniards,’’ he said, “and the French have tried to make eae oo of Florida, now I'll show people what Yan- kee push can do!’ And he did. had once sent forth their miasmatic odors.

The new Secretary will visit the President at Lake when plans for future cam- paigns in the Phi:ippines will be discussed.

Its aim, however, at present, is to secure authority for holding conventions and elections for municipal officers ond, by demonstrating their capacity, for holding elections and for local self-government, to prepare the way for complete political control of the island. They desire the authority for the munici- pal elections early this fall. HAVE CORNERED THE CATTLE. Stock of the $40,000,000 Cattle Syn- dicate Will Be Underwritten This Week. FORT WORTH, Tex., July 22.—George B. Loving, who is organizing the $40,000,000 cattle syndicate, left for New York to- night to attend a meeting of the company there Saturday next to underwrite the stook of the proposed cattle company. He has secured extensions on all options and will carry with him a letter from At- torney-General Smith, stating that the committee will mot be in violation of the anti-trust law; that it will be protected in its rights and properties. The plan is indorsed by many bankers and commis- sion men of Kansas City, Chicago and St. Louis. Mr, Loving believes the deal wil] be completed and closed by Sept. 1.

SOME THINGS HE CAN REVEAL. “SONS OF SOMEBODY” APPOINT- MENTS MAY OPEN SCANDAL Camp Sites, the Santiago Oampaign, Transport Horrors, Miles’ Reletions, Beef and Railroad Contracts May Be Exposed. Special to the Post-Dispatch. WASHINGTON, July 22.—Secretary Al- ger’s statement, which it is expected will be given to the public shortly after his re- tirement to private life, must necessarily be of such nature as to clear his skirts and remove from his shoulders, so far as possi- ble, the burden of responsibility for blun- ders in the conduct of the war now laid at his door. His candidacy for the Senate will demand full explanation, and to do this he need not protect the Administration, as courtesy has demanded he should while he was a member of the Cabinet. First of all, he is expected to absolve himself from blame for the appointment of the “sons of somebody,” show that he had little to do with their naming. His friends already assert he is blameless in this respect. The selection of camp sites will be ex- ploited, also the planning of the Santiago Sickness in camps, with the cli- Gen. Alger, for the severest criticisms of his administration were in consequence of the camp horrors. He may show what in- fluences prevailed in the purchase of army transports for which fancy prices were | paid. His relations with Gen. Miles and the ' reasons that friction existed between the civilian and the military head of the army will doubtless be given full consideration. | aR This feature will be watched with interest, | pave to know whether Secre- | Colonel, here am I, an humble citizen, and es as there is anxiet the commanding General of his own volition, or was influenced and encouraged to pursue the policy he did. The Secretary is also expected to sent out potent facts in the matter of awarding con- tracts for beef. Contracts with railroads and exclusive privileges given the Long Island Railroad *o. can all be explained by Secretary Alger. Should he decide to go fully into the sub- ect and handle the facts with ungloved ands he may reveal just how much the Otis dispatches have been edited. The Sec- retary is expected to show that President ms sapere 4 and Gen. Corbin acted independ- ently of him, and that many of the biunders charged to his administration resulted from actions in which he was not consulted, Even should Alger decide to remain silent, he may no: be able to control his friends, and their revelations are as greatly feared as anything he may say. The Administra- tion is already finding Alger’s forced retire- ment fully as embarrassing as was his re- tention in the Cabinet. ALGER AT THE WHITE HOUSE.

Bryan has left Chicago His friends in all camps de- clare he is stronger than ever in the hearts of both the Altgeld and Harrison factions. Strange as it may seem in the light of past prophecy, the name of the Mayor of Ohicago was not mentioned in the recent meeting of the Democratic National Com- mittee, and neither he nor his friends were consulted as to the policy to be followed and the action to be taken by the National Committee in the deliberations. At the big demonstration for Bryan and silver at the Auditorium Thursday night, under Altgeld auspices, William J. Bryan, William J. Stone, Senator Tillman, George Fred Williams of Massachusetts and many Other of distinction participated, Mayor Harrison declined the invitation to Geliver an address of welcome, on the gtound that the committee in charge of the Qffair was “too obscure,” and when his name was mentioned and his words quoted he was hiesed and ridiculed. More than one of the speakers referred to him. and one sarcas iy declared that the Mayor must be a great man, “‘for neither Jefferson, Lin- coin nor Bryan was ever mayor.”’ ther speakers said there ‘“‘must be an awful lot of ‘obscure’ people in Chicago.” Just now everybody is talking harmon and trying to avoid ruptures of any kind.

The view of the at majority is in distinct contra- diction to this declaration and implied view of the radicals. ‘Stone's friends, including the Har- this State, insist ¥ le in circ he 2 in the saddle, wll name the committees to run the campaign before the convention next year, and that the end of Jones and his power over the committee has already come. Stone is declared bv Mr. Bryan's friends, openly, to not be as enthusiastic for Bryan as Bryan and they would like. There is, indeed, a strong suspicion in many quar- ters that Stone is making eyes at the nom- pation himself. He has always declared in favor of making the trusts the prominent asue for the next campaign, but during his siuy in Chicago he refused to have anything to say on the ag de- clar'ng that Sus position ‘“‘is wel known and does not need repetition. Charges are made that Stone advised ational Committeemen to remain away 7 the Altgeld meeting in the Audi- torium. The noted and firm Altgeld men are George Fred Williams of Massachu- setts, Senator Tillman of South Carolina. New England representatives and others from the West in private declare that they have enough votes in the National Commit- tee to prevent Stone’s activity for anything gave the things they want. They refuse, however, to be quoted. ALL LOOK ALIKE TO HIM Jim Jeffries Gays He Will Fight Mc- Coy After His Meeting With Sharkey. Special to the Post-Dispatch.

ARRESTED THE SECOND TIME, t Had Stolen One Horse and Was Cap- tureé While Trying to Get Another. ONLY ONE MORE WEEK Committee on International Disputes James Moore, the youngest horse thief on record in 8t, Louis, was arrested by Sergt. McKenna last night. Jimmy is only 7 years old, and is as black as midnight. He is a midget, and the police say that he measures only 8 inches high. If he were not so bow-legged he might be nearly double that height. He wears knee trousers, no shoes or stockings and the knee trousers are held in position by one ‘“gallus’’ that crosses a ragged ehirt. The straw hat that covers his kinky head has seen better days, and the brim is very much frayed. This is the second horse that has followed Jimmy away during the month of July, and it is the second time he has been a pris- oner at the Fourth District Police Station, with a charge of horse stealing hanging over him. , The pickaninny with a penchant for pur- loining horses lives with his grandfather, Alexander Dowdey, at 1829 lAnden street. It was becoming dark when Jimmy sallied | forth in quest of horse flesh. He stopped at 2331 Franklin avenue and took Samuel Garnowsky’s steal. There was a set of har- ness hanging on a peg in the stable and) the juvenile horsethief, thinking this might come handy, threw it over the horse’s back. Then he g>t astride of the animal, kicked it with his bare heels and rode away. In the alley at the rear of 923 North Twenty- third street he saw ——. that at- tracted his attention. Albert Jones lives at that number. Mr. Jones is the pcssessor of a wagon and two horses, He was pre- partee to go out himself and had one horse arnessed and stunding alongside the pole, Jones had gone back into the stable to get the other horse when Jimmy came arene. It Jooked too good to be true. There in front of him was all that he lacked of hav- ing a wagon and team. he fact that the wagon and one horse ‘ belonged to Albert Jones made no difference to Jimmy. He called upon his newly ac- quired steed to ‘“‘whoa,"’ and he elid down the horse’s sides. Jimmy was not sufficient- ly expert to adjust the harness to the wagon quickly, and before it was done Sergt. McKenna passed. The police sergeant thought it somewhat strange to see 80 6mall a lad undertaking to harness @& team, so he walked up and watched pro- ceedings. He recognized Jimmy because of his former connection with a missing Jimmy a ride just the same. Sergt.

GENERAL’S TIMELY ARRIVAL. Before the Disease Became an Epidem- ic the Sick Were Removed to the Mountains. SANTIAGO DE CUBA, July 22.—It would be expressing it very mildly to say that Gen. Wood was surprised and shocked at the situation which confronted him when he arrived from Boston. Instead of a few soldiers in isolated camps recovering from fever which had been controlled before it became epidemic, he found the chief. city of his province thoroughly infected, with a record of about 160 cases of yellow fever of a malignant type and W deaths, nearly all of the victims being Americans, s0l- diers and citizens. In his own house in the suburbs he found a servant with the fever. Two clerks from his office had been taken over to the ellow fever hospital on the island, cases ad developed in three American hotels, which were still open and doing business, and two medical officers, a commissary ae and a large number of soldiers were ead. Gen. Wood acted promptly, and the army and public were soon made aware of the arrival of the chief by the vigorous orders issued directing the removal of division headquarters to Cristo and of the troops to Songo, both mountain villages, where the yellow fever is eeeenty impossible. When the fever broke out in the old Spanish barracks soon after the departure of Gen. Wood for the north, four or five days elapsed before all the troops in the infected quarters removed to camp in the immediate neighborhood. It took less than one day to get the entire division head- quarters, with furniture, books, records, large quantities of quartermaster and commissary supplies, horses, mules, wag- ons and impedimenta by the trainload bundled off to Cristo, and business of the various departments was hardly inter- rupted. The entire actual work of moving was ete fe ee before the orders were actually published. ' -day the troops were moved to Songo in the same manner, and no one is left to represent the army of the United States except a few immune clérks and a com- pany of the Fifth Infantry at Morro, five miles away. Gen. Wood's orders prohibit all officers, soldiers and Government employes enter- ing the city of Santiago unless especially authorized to do s0; provide for a board of medical officers to take charge of yellow fever patients in and about the city of San- tiago and establishes various sanitary regulations for the prevention of the spread of the disease. The orders show that Gen. Wood has d¢- termined that yellow fever is to be stamped out atany cost. The stringent orders clos- ing American saloons, prohibiting the sale of liquors to Americans and directing the arrest of saloon loungers, is intended to suppress the camp followers nuisance; the same is true of other provisions. The city seems in an excellent sanitary conditions considering the crowded po sula- tion. Maj. Barber, chief of the sanitary department, estimates that more than half a million cubic yards of filth has been re- moved since the American occupation. Tons of disinfectants are used daily, and in the lower sections large quantities of of] and sulphur are burned in the. streets ard courtyards. M’KINLEY AND DIAZ MAY MEET.

HIGHER. MANY THOUSANDS INVOLVED. Defendants Claim That the Pig They Bought and His Descendants Are Only Common Porkers. Special to the Post-Dispatch. SPRINGFIELD, Il., July 22.—There has just gone from the Sangamon Circuit Court of this city to the Appellate Court of this Judicial District, a case that is one of the most important suits recorded in the United States. It entails the legality of a name given to live stock. The case is known locally as ‘‘The Kleever Model Hog Case,’”” and has been in the local courts for over a year, having cost already thousands of dollars and entangling in the law wealthy stock men of [llinois, Missouri and Indiana. Legal ability, the best that money could procure, has been sitting up late at nights for months conning over stock books, pedigree rosters and other au- thorities. Plaintiffs and defendants have spent time and money e6couring the country for witnesses and evidence to ald their cause, while the Court itself, has had more knotty problems lajd before it than in sev- eral sensational murder cases or damage suits. And the end is not yet in sight. Several years ago the Counci! Bros., large stock raisers of Sangamon County, Illinois, produced from stock a beautiful boar pig, which was named ‘‘Kleever’s Model.” When maturity was reached the hog was adver- tised far and wide, and secured a national and international reputation. The hog earned thousands of dollars annually for the OWNghteen months ago, at a public sale on the Council stock farm near Springfield “kK leever's Model’ was sold to a syndicate composed of lllinois, Missouri and Indiana stock breeders for . One-half of the money was — and the remaining portion was to be a stated intervals. This caus the not suit which was recently instituted, for the out- standing indebtedness. Whén the case was reached the defense shook the old San- gamon County Courthouse—the place where Abraham Lincoln tried many cases —by proclaiming the ‘‘Kleever’s Model” in controversy a traud, sham and ‘“‘no-such- thing.”’ The defense introduced witnesses who swore point-blank that the hog sol by the Council Bros. was a “‘ringer;’ that the real and only Kleever’s Model had been dead and buried for over two years before the sale was made. One principal witness swore he saw the orig‘nal lee- ver’s Model die and buried, and described the “‘marks’ and other identification of the original, which the present alleged hog has not on its body. The defense also intro- duced evidence to show _that the “‘get"’ of this present ‘‘Kleever’s Model’ was fraud- ulently advertised and placed before the public in an illegitimate manner, and that the people who had patronized the present hog had simply wasted thousands of dol- lars on an ordinary, everyday, black and white hog, with hardly g pedigree enough to carry it across the street. The mass of testimony was sufficient to addle the minds of three special juries and to carry the case to the next highest court in the State. The plaintiffs will carry their cause to the highest court in the land. The case comes up here at the next term of the Appellate Court. Inquiries from Europe have been received regarding the outcome of the suit, while the various states of this country have sent not only mall inquiries, but scores of representative stockmen to look into the matter personally.

AN EPISCOPAL CHURCH OPEN. ne Is Across From the Malate Barracks and a Priest and Other Priests ' Are With the Army. NDW YORK , July 22.—General Secretary Wood of the Brotherhood of St. Andrew received information of the organization in Manila of the First Episcopal or Church of England work in the Philippines on Mem- orial Day. Preliminary services had been maintained since March in the pariors of a resident, who is a member of the Church of Wngland, by the Rev. Dr. Charles C. Pierce, chaplain in the United States Army. The report is made by John Howe Peyton, who, with some other workers sent out by the Brotherhood, went to Manila under commission of Bishop Doane of Albany to investigate religious conditions in the Phil- ippines dnd return in time to report to the Missionary Council at St. Louis in Oc- tober. In his report, Mr. Peyton says a bullding has been opened across the street from the principal barracks in Malate and named the Church house. There are two stories, and the upper, consisting of five rooms, is to be used as offices and a parish house. The lower floor, all in one room, has been made into a neat chapel. The Rev. Hugh Nethercott is priest-in-charge and he has two lay workers. For some time there was another ordained man, the Rev. James L. Smiley, but he has gone to the front and ig holding services for soldiers. An adjunct of the Holy Trinity Church house in Manila is a medical dispensary, to which many poor Filipinos have already applied for rellef. Two men sent out by the American Brotherhood of St. Andrew are at work in the Manila hospitals and one conducts in the church house a class of young Filipino men, who are studying En- ish. Negotiations are in progress for the pur- chase of asite for achurch. A missionary committee has been organized, charged with the duty of church extension In the Philippines. Under a new arrangement Chaplains of the United States Army and Navy, who are Episcopalian priests, are canonically placed under the Bishop of Washington. The work in Manila, having been etarted tentatively by an WBpiscopal Army Chaplain, all of the clergy now there have been placed with him under Bishop Satterlee. REVENUE MEN’S BIG CAPTURE. Tennessee Officers Make a Rich Haul of Illicit Liquors Near Chattanooga. CHATTANOOGA, Tenn., July 22.—Rev- enue officers have returned from a long and very successful raid in the mountains of Monroe County. Last night they ar- rested William Cagle and James Curtis for making and selling illicit liquor. Cagle owns four sawmills, stores and other property, and is worth at least $40,000. He is an elder in the Methodist church and a Sunday- school superintendent. Cagle does not deny his guilt. Three thousand gallons of liquor belonging to him were destroyed by the of- ficers. Cagie and Curtis were taken before United States Commissioner Robinson and are in jail awaiting bond. FATAL PLAY WITH A PISTOL.

Tn Her Race Against Britannia, She Made Good Time Though Held Back, and She May Be a Dangerous Rival for Columbia. Special Cable to the Post-Dispatch. Copyright, 1899, by Press Publishing Company. LONDON, July 22.—The result of the Shemrock-Britannia trials has immensely fncreased public interest in the America cup contest, which it is now hoped Sham- rock may win. The best judges of the merits of Shamrock are the famous yacht ekippers, most of whom happened to be in the Solent during the trials with Britannia, They have given their views to the Post- Dispatch. Capt. Carter, England's premier skipper, summed up his opinion of both contests as follows: “The hammering of a westerly wind ight not do her good, but in my heart l citove she will win. “tf reckon Shamrock the best boat that ever crossed the Atlantic. I know ail about the others challengers, America’s prowess but I doubt that the Herreshoffs ean excel in lightness Sir Thomas Lipton’s boat.

I saw Valkyrie’s tria] on the Clyde with disappointment and I did met expect her to win the cup, but Sham- 8 form against Britannia compels the ef that her chances are excellent. 1 believe that in cup racing trim her weak- ness down the wind will be removed.” Capt. Sycamore, who steered the Valkyrie Ill, when the memorable foul took place. watched the challenger sail both matches.

Much Profit in the Smuggling, Which the German Papers Decry, De- nouncing American Companies. BERLIN, July 22.—Germany has been ex- cluding cattle so rigidly that the difference in price has now become so great as to offer a lucrative business for smugglers, who are most active on the German-Duich frontier. Customs officers recently captured eight cows at Nordhern, which had been smuggled from Holland. The business is carried on by organized bands and still continues, although a double force of cus- toms guards has been employed. The agri- cultural society of East Frisia has called the Government’s attention to the danger of disease in German herds from smuggled cattle. It is announced that the Govern- ment will further strengthen the customs guards. The Kruez Zeitung returns this week to the attack upon American meats, calling them loathsome and highly dangerous to health. The Agrarian Deutsche Tages Zeitung sharply attacks Amreican insurance com- panies in Chicago. In a letter signed by Ernest Benninghover, the Government is advised, before admitting American com- panies with reckless business, to inquire of German companies whether such methods would not prove destructive. The degen- erating methods of great American com- panies, gays the wr@er, generally so cor- rupting, would have a corrupting influence upon the insurance business of Prussia. The Government is therefore asked to keep them out of the country. The total German exports to the United States for the fiscal year just closed amounted to $83,744,791, against $74,228,487 in 1898. The Gotha Chamber of Commerce reports that the toy industry of the duchy is suffering seriously because the usual or- ders from the United States have fallen off. This diminution was first noticed in 1898. Prices have been reduced. BY STORMS AND HEAT ra j GERMANY AFFECTED WITH BOTH IN ITS VACATION SEASON. BERLIN, July @.—This city {fs in the midst of the vacation season. The exodus to the mountains and seaside continues in unusual proportions, those going by night traine to Switzerland finding it almost im- possible to secure sleeping berths. The week has been unusually hot and humid. Heavy rains and hail storms have occurred in various parts of the country, inflicting much damage to the orops. Many people have been killed by lightning, two such cases having occurred in Berlin. A numiber wero also injured in Berlin.

A WASHINGTON’S CHURCH SUIT. A Row in Sulgrave Chapel Filled With Memories of the “‘Father’s’” Family. LONDON, July 2%.—lxtraordinary discios- ures were made this week in the course of an action for debt tried at Brackley, which have an interest for Americans, as they concern church affairs at Sulgrave, a North- amptonshire village, which is visited an- nually by scores of Americans on account of memorials of the Washington family. The parish clerk sued the church wardens for 3 shillings, two months’ salary. ‘I'he debt was not disputed, but the poverty of the church was pleaded as the reason for the non-payment of even this pittance. The Judge animadverted strongly upon the vi- car’s disgraceful conduct, adding that there must be many wealthy Americans who would gladly have subscribed hundreds of pounde to perpetuate the memory of Wash- —— if they had known the parish was so THE INTERNATIONAL KENNELS.

SAYS M’KINLEY NEEDS COURAGE OUR WARLIKE EFFORT TO CON- QUER AFRIDIS. There Can Be No Substitute for Na- tionality, He Declares, and Our Next Campaign Has No Bet- ter Promise Than the Past. Special Cable to the Post-Dispatch. Copyright, 1899, by Press Publishing Company. LONDON, July 22.—Andrew Carnegie sends to the Post-Dispatch the following signed statement regarding the Philippines situation: To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. The Post-Dispatch asks my views on the present situation in the Philippines. The situation is just what was predict- ed by those who warned the President that there was no substitute for nationality. When he changed his instructions to the Peace Commission and bought a rebellion from Spain, we saw that the Philippines could not easily be conquered; that a long, costly war was imeyitable if he rashly un- dertook subjugation. We have not been de- ceived, as the President was, by Otis’ an- nounced intentions week after week to end the war by capturing the insurgents. The proposed increase of raw, untrained volunteers is only leading him into @ sec- ond season of failure. Gen. Lawton has told us that 100,000 sol- diers are required—not fresh volunteers. We have not got these and cannot get them, since the trained volunteers refused to re-enlist. The war will probably end next June for another rainy season without result. Even if the insurgents are badly punished we shall not be much nearer the peaceful, succ@ssful occupation of the country, which is necessary to begin the work of the civil- ization and development of these 8,000,000 of people. There will still be the question of our keeping there an overpowering mili- tary force. There is no solution except that which makes the people friendly to us, and this can only be obtained by a promise of in- dependence such as was given to Cuba. he true and only remedy is conciliation. We must conciliate the people of the Philip pines— not try to subdue them, for even this, if successfully accomplished, brings us no nearer the end. There is a recent episode in Great Brit- ain’s history which I commend to the President. Two years ago 70,000 British troops were concentrated, the largest force ever aseem- bled in India, and war was declared against the Afridis. ~The campain resulted much as has ours against the Filipinos. Lockhart published a proclamation stat- ing that he was about to descend from the mountains into the valley for climatic reasons, but in the spring would return to complete the campaign. That spring never came. (Not one word has ever been heard of his return. The Afridis, like the Filipinos, had found euch heroic defenders of their land that the Government Tecog- nized that a bad mistake had been made. The Afridis remain independent. Their land is their own. Such statesmanship a strong man like Salisbury can adopt. The opposition party had denounced as unjust the attack on the Afridis, rejoiced that it was defeated, but the Salisbury government is stronger than ever. So it would be with our Philippine mis- take if the President only had Salisbury’s courage. Instead of sending 12,000 more of our thoughtless young men to be sacri- ficed he should send a capable stateman, one with a mind of his own, authorize him to negotiate peace and promise independence under our protectorate until a proper gov- ernment can be established. The Democratic party would atultify it- self if it did not indorse this policy. The Republican party could then go into the forthcoming political contest with a united front and probably be successful. although it must be heavily handicapped in any case. If the next rainy season finds us still at war with the Filipinos it will go hard in- deed with the peeemean party’s nominee. No 40,000 or 50, men, mostly untrained and unacclimatized, are Ilkely to effectually establish our control there by next June, for not the dispersing of the opposing army, but the cordial acceptance of our rule by the people must be obtained. Without this victory is only defeat. Gen. Miles, no doubt, is our best general. He has never yet failed. His greatest vic- tories have been those won by conciliation and management. Let him be sent to Ma- nila, authorized to take all the concilia- tory as well as military measures neces- sary in his judgment to obtain lasting peace, including authority to promise a trial of independence under our protecto- rate whenever a satisfactory government is securely established. I believe his record of unvarying success will not be broken. It is elther this policy now or another vear of failure. We have nothing to hope from military forces alone tn the Philip- pines. We are not a military power 15,000 miles from our military base, and I hope we never will ba. A great standing army is necessary for foreign conquest. This the masses of the American people, fortunately, will not ap- pre. n t us have peace. ° ANDREW CARNEGIB. MONTENEGRO’S PRINCE TO WED The Coming Nuptials of Denile and Princess Kutta of Strelitz. LONDON, July 2.—The approaching mar- riage of Crown Prince Denile of Montenegro and Princess Kutta of Mecklenburg-Stre- litz will be celebrated with splendor unpre- cedented in the land of the Black Moun- tains. The bride will arrive at Antavari on Sunday and her formal conversion to the Greek orthodox faith will occur a few hours later in a private house specially consecrated for the purpose. There is only a bridle path from Antivart to Cettinie, and the princess will therefore perform the eurney to the Montenegrin capital on seek 5 She will be aogempenes by her future brother-in-law, the Prince of Naples, whose wife is Princess Helene of Montenegro. The ~~ etive bride and her suite will enter Cettinje on Wednesday mext and the wedding will take place on the follow- ing day. Great festivals are being prepared in honor of the event. FOR LOWER DUTIES ON GLASS. Germany Finds Its Exports Suffering on Account of High Tariff. RBPRLIN, July 2.—The Chamber of Com- merce of Upper Franconia has petitioned the Bavarian Ministry to use its influence with the Government to secure lower duties on looking-glass in the Unitetl States when commercial treaties are arranged, and asks for a reduction of 20 per cent. The chamber points out that the exportation of looking- lass from the Fichetl-Gebirg has iminished more than half since Ding- ley tari? went into effect and exp fear that exportation will soon be @eut of existence | LONDON'S SEASON I) CLOSING The Most Brilliant and Pros- perous in Years. TRADESMEN MUCH PLEASED. HIGH PRICES AND MUCH BUYING OF TRINKETS. A Series of Notable Weddings, Cailing for Elegant Gifts, With a Par- ticularly Fine One From the Prince of Wales. LONDON, July 22.—Now that the Queen and Court have gone to Osborne, the rest of the fashionable world will soon flit to the continent or the grouse moors. The Prince of Wales will end the London sea- Son on Monday, after which he will visit in the neighborhood of Goodwood and at- tend the races there. Later in the week the Prince will go to Cowes, while he remains a fortnight on board the royal yacht Os- borne. From Cowes His Royal Highness will go to Marienbad. The season has been the most prosperous that has been experienced in recent years. The tradesmen have had rich harvests, for people evidently have had plenty of money to spend for things that are not the neces- saries of life. The great auks’ eggs sold at auction on Thursday brought 800 guineas and at the same sale a Japanese dwarf tree fetched 39 guineas, and other curiosities were sold for eorresponding high prices. The best evidence of the prevailing pros- perity, however, is the abnormal sales of pictures at the Royal Academy, the numbers sold and the prices realized being far above the average, although the production them- selves were below par. A series of brilliant marriages have mate- rially assisted business, as can be judged by the lists of costly gifts at the marriage on Thursday of the Marquess of Tullibar- dine and the daughter of Sir James Ram- say, which almost rivaled those of the Crewe-Primrose nuptials as a rich social function. Costly and novel presents were fairly showered upon the bride and bride- groom, The Prince of Wales sent the bride a beautiful adaption of the late Parisian fad of allowing chained living creatures to wan- der about the wearer’s shoulders. This adaptation consists of a small brooch pin with a large central pearl, to which are at- tached by gold chains set with pearls large jeweled flies, one of diamonds and emeralds and another of diamonds and rubies, each of which is fastened to the dress like a brooch, PARLIAMENT 10 CLOSE THE MOST DREARY SESSION IN MEMORY WILL END SOON. LONDON, July 22.—The close of one of the most dreary sessions of Parliament Within the memory of men now living is in sight. The members of the House of Commons expect to fit about Aug. 1 in time to reach the Moors for the opening of grouse shooting, which begins Aug. 12. The Government has met many rebuffs in both houses of Parliament and the re- duced majorities with which it has carried some pet measures have constituted moral victories for the opposition. The Conserva- tive leaders, in short, have displayed their usual vaciliation, indecision and feeble- ness in resisting the demands of the “classes against the masses.”’ Lobbying has been more prevalent than ever before. Unfortunately for the success of the Liberal party, the leaders on that side have shown little aptitude to score off the numerous shortcomings of the Tories! or to profit by the rebelliousness that sev- eral Government meaures awakened in the ranks of Lord Galisbury’s adherents. In short, tne Liberals have shown themselves rather demagogical opposers than initia- tors of a new line of policy. Otherwise, they might more than once have forced a dis- solution of Parliament and appealed to the country with success. 00M PAUL 1S IELOING — HE CAN GIVE WAY UNDER THE PROPER PRESSURE. LONDON, July 22..—What President Kru- ger declined to yield to the petitions of the outlanders and the arguments of the Brit- ish High Commissioner of South Africa, Sir Alfred Milner, he seems inclined to yield to the more forcible hints of the War Office comprised in unobtrusive but obvious military preparations, The sudden change of front by the Volksrad in adopt- ing the seven-year franchise proposition on last Tuesday is a forcible demonstration of the claim that President Kruger can and does yield when the proper pressure is ap- plied, but not otherwise. As Mr. Chamberlain sald in the course of his speech in the House of Commons on Thursday regarding the modifications of the franchise law in the Transvaal, the concessions do not end the difficulties, but merely offer a basis for a pacific settle- ment. Former experiences with the Trans- vaal have taught the Government that it is inadvisable in any way to relax pressure until the contract is concluded. The mill- tary preparations, therefore, have been in no way relaxed. The Parliamentary select committee on old age pensions is laboring earnestly with a view to presenting a rt be the prorogation of Parliament. It is understood that committee has arrived at the detcr- mination to recommend a pension of 5 shil- lings weekly to all attaining the age of 6 fag arene wave Serer, maumpaity tavelve © heav eupenae, g timated at 10,- 000,000. pounds ster .* it pr year d, will be divided between im- berial exchequer and local sources. SIX BALLOONS NA GREAT RACE. The Aero Club de France’s Unique Event. enor IT WAS BROUGHT OFF IN PARIS. ALL WERE AMATEUR BALLOON- ISTS AND ONE WAS A WOMAN She Had an Adventure Which Made Her the Club’s Heroine, as Her Balloon Went Up in Smoke Before She Alighted. Special Correspondence of Sunday Post-Dispatch. PARIS, July 2.—Imagine six great bal- loons, chafing at their leashes and fretting to be free; the scene, Union Square. Imagine a gay throng of society people, the brilliant toilets from Newport, the shifting of colored parasols, the frou-frou of skirts, the hum of many voices, gay laughter, meetings,, introductions. That was the scene in the gardens af the Tuilleries this week when all was read for the balloon race under the auspices the Aero Club de France. There were six competitors out of ten en- tered (only five balloons appear in the pha- tograph). One of these was a woman, Mme. Savory, who stood in the basket of M. Santos Drumont’s “Volga,” with M, de Lattre as assistant. ; The others were M. le Comte de la Vaulx, in ‘Le Centaure;”’ M. de Castillon de St. ‘Aero Club;” M. Hervieu, in “)’Alcor;’ M. le Comte de la Valette, in ‘Le Magache;’” M. de Santos-Drumont, most ingenious of French amateur balloon- ists, in ‘‘l’Amerique.”’ It was a curious sight. All of the balloons competing were of the old-fashioned tye for the new-fangled airships are yet expe mental. An element of novelty was r er, supplied by the ‘Volga,’ which M. di antos-Drumont has supplied with several little ballons, Which are supposed to act ap feeders, and supply more gas to the larger y 5 “ le howev one as its supply becomes exhausted. Despite the baby balloons Mme, Savor} did not win the race. She did have an ad venture which makes her its heroine. Ai the Volga was descending near the Atlan tic coast a puff of wind caught it and Mm vory who was just alighting, was dra ged through a thorn hedge and throws again a stone wall, receiving severe bruises and utterly ruining her pretty dress, All the other baHons came down which within 24 hours, except l’Amerique. whic was out 48 hours. The victory was adjudge to M. le Comte de la Vaulx, the Centaur having made the fastest time, and the cu oer by the Aero Club was awarded to m. Of course, a “‘race’’ between balioons is rather absurb; the one that gets the best wind wins, in the fitful breezes of summer, The races have served rather to call at- tention to the Aero Club as a competito for fashionable favor with the Automobil Club. Count de Dion is president of bot organizations and both are housed in th same magnificent palace on the Place de | Concorde. ! And indeed, ballooning is becoming a fad, Paris modistes are called upon to design “costumes de bealon,’’ as weil as ‘“‘modes d’automobile,’’ for’ women as well as men have engaged freely in the goprt. Mme. Flameng is almost as well known an aero- naut as Mme. Savory; the other ladies who have indulged in the racea have gen- erally done so ae passengers. The automobile haz helped ballooning. The development of light motor engines has made the airship seem feasible, and the fact that slim-pursed plebeians cannot engage. in so expensive @ sport has com- mended it to the smart ladies and gentie- men of title and fortune who make up the Aero Club. If Mme, Savory is, since the race, the he- roins of the Aero Club, M. de Santor-Dru- mont has been for a longer périod its hero. He is Uttle and lithe and fearless, dark, thirty-two years of age, and by birth Bra- siian. He recently made an automobile rip of 2000 miles through France. ore adventurous still was his !nvolun- tary trip last September, feet through the air, when he fell with the tor- pedo-shaped balloon with which he was ex- perimenting and landed unhurt, the filmsy material retarding his- descent. M. Drumont is the inventor of the very ingenious aero-motor, or tiny pre ller, as well as of the torpedo-shaped oon. He has given the Sunday Post-Dispatch corre- spondent this description of his invention: “The propeller is on the single-screw pria- ciple and works in the air as a steamer- screw works in water. It makes 2000 revo- lutions a minute and can draw a weight of twenty-two pounds. The blades are of alu- minum, each having an area of four square feet, and weighing less than two pounds. The distance between the extremities of the blades is about four feet. “The engine is a tandem, one cylinder on oop of the other, the materia] being alu- minum and eteel. The fuel ts petroleum, the gas being condensed in the cylinders ving the desired force. he car is of ordinary wicker and weighs, with the engine and propeller, 105 pounds—my own weight, by the way, to a nicety.’’ Two other famous members of the club are M. Mallet who made the two captive balloons taken to Santiago by the United States Army, and Comte Henri de la Vaul!lx, who has just returned from an ethnograph- ic mission in Patagonia, entrusted him by the French Government.

LONDON, July 22.—The heat throughout the week, both in England and on the Con- tinent, has been unprecedented. Wiile the mercury has not approached United States records, Americans who have arrived here recently say that itis hotter than at home. The weather has entirely revolutionized the clothes and habits of Londoners. Their straw hats are deemed too heavy and in the city scores of “smart’’ members of the Stock Exchange are to be seen in what is known as the milkman’s hat. This article o made of thin white linen, with a broad The clearest evidence of the heat, how- ever, and one which most impresses Eng- lishmen, is the fact that in certain courts the judges informed lawyers that they could dispense with the wearing of wigs. The ae permission was gratefully ac- ed. ’ n spite of the heat the Queen on Thurs- day drove 12 miles to a garden party bazar which the Duchess of Connaugnt ad or- nized for the restoration of a church, The ueen visited all the stalls and made nu- merous purchases at the American stall, over which Countess Coke and the Countess of Dudley presided. Her Majesty also tasted a real American sherry cobbler through a straw. Jaggers, the messe r boy, who was on duty at one of the stalls, was presented to the Queen, who ques- tioned him about his American trip. Americans have been very prom:nent in the entertainments of the week. Mrs. Ogil- vie Haig, whom the papers describe as the daughter of the queen of New York society, Mrs, Astor, gave her first London party on Wednesday. Her house was full of notable eople. The same evening Mrs. Ogden Goe- et gave a very select dinner for the Prince of Wales, The Countess of Orford (formerly Miss Louise Corbin of New York) has been driv- ing a pair of American thoroughbreds in the park this week, the gift of her father Mr. G.

NO TROUBLE OVER THE FLAG I CIDENT IN HAWAII JULY 4. Of the Philippine Campaign, the Press Talks Failure, and Print Letters Criticizing American Plan of Campaign. BERLIN, July 22—The announcement that Chief Justice Chambers is to leave Samoa is received with great satisfaction by all sections of the German press. The newspapers have all along represented Chambers as the tool of T. B. 6. Maxsa, the British Consul at Apia, and especially hostile to the Germans in the island. His retirement, therefore, had been regarded as necessary to the restoration of normal conditions. With the retirement of Judge Chambers, the newspd@pers say the new officials at Apla will have an easier task. The flag incident at Honolulu on July 4 has been very sensibly treated by the Ger- man press. The swift punishment of the offender ts regarded as proof of the cor- rect attitude of the United States toward Germany. There was not a single jarring note in the press comment, Most of the newspapers did not regard the incident as of such importance to notice it. The Boersen Courier said the incident showed the good iene pte” eran between American and r man officers in the Pacific had made imme- diate progress. The Lokal Anzeiger said to frequent tung says e The Kreuz ricans are making no to efforte ton to raise new troops says: United States is apparently devel- ing into a military state, after the exam- ple of European countries.

The last week in June there was a great festival, at w resent, and which ended with a ball reworks. Four-fifths of the guests were Filipinos.

The Americans take revenge having ships fire upon Filipinos where a few show them- selves in order to bathe.

The Filipinos led the prisoners quietly away. When marines landed they were received 6o warmly that they were forced to return hastily to the ship.

WERE RECAPTURED WITHIN A FEW HOURS. Twenty-four St. Louis Prisoners En Route to the Penitentiary Engaged in a Riot on the Cars Breaking Away From Guards. Charles Hall, alias Rohan, who escaped from the custody of deputy sheriffs yes.er- day at noon, near Chamois, Mo., by Jump- ing from the train upon which he was be- ing taken to the State Penitentiary, was recaptured last night near the place where he left the train. He was brought to St. Louls early this morning and locked in jail at the Fourt Courts for safe keeping. He will be held here until another consignment of prisoners is ready for Jefferson City, when he will be taken along under an extra guard. Hall took desperate chances to regain his liberty. He jumped from the window of a Missouri Pacific train, running at the speed of 40 miles an hour, end alighted upon his head on a ledge of granite. Those who éaw him make the perilous leap expected to find him dead on the spot where he had fallen. But he escaped without serious #i- juries and succeeded for severa] hours in eludi a large crowd of pursuers. Halil’s escape was one of a seri events that, figurativeiy speaking, ept Deputy Sheriff John A. Pohiman and three assistants in hot water from the time they left St. Louis yesterday morning until they reached Jefferson City. They had & pris- oners in their custody, all destined for the State Penitentiary. Several of the convicts, a@mong them Hal! and Frank Simpson, were very restless and caused the guards unus- ual trouble. They frequently huddied to- gether in seats and passed secrets in whis- pers, but the wards did not look upon these actions with suspicion and made no effort to silence the men or to keep them men were handcuffed together in set of handcuffs was at- ched to a iong, heavy chain, the ends of which were fastened about two deputy sheriffs. The handcuffs were firm and the chain strong and there was apparently no poesibiixy of escape. When the train was within 10 miles of Chamois the prisoner, handcuffed to Simp- gon, asked to be taken to the water tank. For convenience his handcuff was released from the chain and a guard accompanied him to the tank. He ‘xad hardly left his seat when Simpson went to work on his handcuff and soon separated it from the chain. The window by his seat was open and, with a yell, he jumped to his feet and sprang from the car. The train was running rapidly, but the roadbed was soft and yielding and, as Simpson alighted on his feet he received we FY slight joktt when he struck the ground. e gathered himself immediately and sped away like a deer. Deputy Henry FPohiman was standing on the rear of the prisoners’ car and saw Simpson leap. The prisoner had hardly touched the ground before Pohlman skill- fully swung out from the steps and left the train. He was closely Ollowed by Adolph Hartmann and both went in purguit of the fleeing Simpson. They drew their pistols amd succeeded in halting him. The train stopped after it had run several hundred yards and backed to where Pohl- man an Hartman were waiting with Simpson. The ease with which Simpson had been Tecaptured seemed to subdue the other prisoners and they were year quiet for eeveral minutes. It was only the calm be- fore the storm, however. The prisoners, while apporentiy on thelr good havior, were working energetically to release them. eelves from their shackles. Instead of the epeedy recapture of Simpson acting as a Geterent, the ease with which he ig‘hted inspired all of them with a desire to try for gp When e train was within two miles f Chamo's Hall's seatmate asked for a nk of water.

The sight of the weapons had a calming effect on the men, who were still hand-cuffed to the chain, but only seemed to increase the determina- tion of those who were free to escape. Two prisoners, named Sears and Mitchell, were grabbed by Deputy Sheriff Pohiman just as they succeeded in thrusting their heads through windows. Frank Simpson was again trying to es- cape, but was knocked down by Frank Clayton. Hartmann and Henry himan also grabbed men who were about to ju As fast as the loose prisoners were suD- dued they were fastened to thé chain and the locks holding them made secure. The train stopped soon after the riot was quelled and backed up to the scene of Hall's leap. The guards expected to find him crushed and mangled beyond recognition. But not a trace of him could be found. He had disappeared in the neighboring woods and left no trail behind him. The train officials quickly became impatient and de- clared they would have to resume their run. Deputy Pohlman decided that he and Henry Pohlman would accompany the pris- oners on the remainder of the journey, and ordered Hartman and Clayton to continue the search for Hall. The journey from Chamois to Jefferson City was made without further trouble, ut the guards held their pistols tn their ands, prepared to shoot the first man who made an attempt to leave the car. Deputies John and Henry Pohiman re- turned to St. Louis yesterday evening after directi Hartmann and axyen to hunt for Hall until they found him.

A Committee From the Ladies Auxil- iary Worked All Day on the Va- rious Street Car Lines. The experiment of collecting street car fares by a committee of 17 from the Ladies’ Auxiliary of the Protestant Hospital Asso- clation in Bast St. Louis yesterday proved a financial success. The promoters of the enterprise retired from their day’s work, which closed at ll o’clock last night, quite weary, but more than pleased with the novel venture of “conducting wei car on each of the three trolley MneS on the East Side, they said. The fair conductors also said they were red to count the day's receipts and ee a postpone that portion of the enter- prise until Monday morning. “No, I cannot say that I would really like to be a atreet-car conductor on a regular job,” said one of the tadies, “and yet there were many posse’ features in our day’s experience. ut, oh my, the traveling pub- lic tests one’s patience to the utmost some- times, and after the day’s trials I shall] al- ways have a tenderer feeling for the street railway employes. Yes, the regular con- ductors helped us out of many tough places during the day, and we fee] very grateful to them as well as to all who con ributed eo liberally toward the object we sought to attain—the increasing of our fund to be used in furnishing our new hospital. We especially want to return our thanks to the Post-Dispatch for its kindness to us.” The committee in charge of the three cars furnished by Mr. Wals f the East St. Louis Electric Railway Co., Mr. Day of Belleville and Mr. Forman of the Suburban consisted of Mrs. E.

FENDER SAVED CHILDREN Little Francis and Irene Ehrhardt Were Bruised and Hurt by a Cass Avenue Car. A street car fender was the instrument of saving the lives of two children at Miliot and Cass avenues last night. Francis Ehrhardt, aged 12 of 201 Thomas street, was returning from a grocery store holding his 38-year-old sister Irene, by the hand. The children did not notice car 3 of the Cass avenue line coming éast. Just as they stepped into the track the corner of the fender struck the boy and hurled him away from the rails. The little fellow never loos- ened his grip on his baby sister’s hand. The children rolled over and over. When Thomas Moffatt, a passer ‘by, ran to their aid Irene was unconscious. He carried her to Hoelscher’s drug store at 2601 Cass ave- nue. Francis limped after him. Dr, Sora- ghan of 415 Mullanphy street attended the children. He found that Irene had a scalp wound on the left side of her head, and Francis had a gash on the back of his head. He pro- nounced their injuries not gerious and sent them home. Misfortunes do not come singly in the Ehrhardt family. The Behor of the chil- dren was shot whfie in Doc Sweeney's sa- loon two weeks ago during a fight in which he was taking no part. Friday, hs first yo | out afier recovering from his wound, he fell from a street car at the same corner where his children had so narow an escape, He also received a scalp wound.

SPENT AND GAVE ALL HE MADE. HE ENEW BEFORE DEATH CAME THAT IT WAS NEAR. Widow and Two Daughters Are &o Prostrated by Grief That No Ar- rangements for the Funeral Have Been Made. Bpecial to the Post-Dispatch. NEW YORK, July 2.—Col. Robert G. In- gersoll died a comparatively poor man. There is suid to be an insurance policy of $100,000 on hia life; that is all, yet the great egnostic made from $50,000 to $60,000 a year every year since the war. What he did not spend on his family he gave away. He had a mcderate account at ths Bank of New Arstercam, N. Y. He owned no a ROBERT G. IN aA gee’ correspond- ent, ““Gath,”’ once wrote this of Ingersoll: “T occasionally see Robert, or ‘Bob’ In- ersoll coming down Fifth avenue, as opin- onated as any of the sac writers, for professiona] unbelief is also @ sect. “Ingersoll has never advanced. He is a sectarian, impatient of contradiction, a bib- lical critic no better read in the Bible than preachers upon the average, a bloom- ing believer in the last dispensation which he muddles. The actual ~» finds a peace in the silent pecgress e makes to- ward a large understanding. “The ancient Bible then appeals to him as a literary milestone full of euch wisdom as Theocracy would allow. “More Bible is talked by Ingersoll than by the most learned rabbi; he is, therefore, a back number. He belongs with Ezra, Jeremiah and Peter, shibboleth chasers. “Ingersoll is prosperous as much by his sermons as the practice of law. He makes unbelief pay and is a splendid probability for some soul driver to capture in mortus and use him for the familiar illustration of Ethan Allen, Voltatre, etc., who came into kirk in the last moments, thereby proving, what? Nothing.” INGERSOLL AT HOME. Hin Personality and Domestic Life as Showing the Man. Mr. Ingersoll was very fond of his home, and though counted a public man he never visited clubs, and it was next to impossible to get him to a dinner where speech making followed the dessert. Not Gen. Neal Dow himself was more temperate than Col. In- gersoll, though an exception should be made in the case of tobacco. He was an inveterate smoker, and even in his office he worked and talked with a cigar between his ips, which, like Gen. Butler, he chewed when it chanced to go out. Mr. Ingersoll was a brilliant conversa- tionalist, talked with ease upon subjects of which he was supposed to be profound- ly ignorant. An omnivorous reader, he had the faculty of digesting a book, of get- ting at and retaining its salient points to the exclusion of the padding and the unim- portant. Scarcely anything in the line of reading escape him. Novels, history, poet- ry, the Koran, he read them all. His memory was remarkable: “I have what I call ‘The Fool’s Memory, ” he said one day. “I can remember the number of a page on which I saw certain sentences. and can often tell] whether it was the right or left-hand page, and about how many lines from the top or bottom.” His memory for the works of Shakespeare was particularly noticeable. Quotations fromthe dramatist, always apt and cor- rect, he had at his tongue’s end. Indeed, Shakspeare was his Bible, and in Mr. In- gersoll’s opinion no other writer deserved to be mentioned in the same breath with Shakspeare. He said that he never heard of Shakspeare until he was about 20 years of age, when a chance incident happened to ut him in possession of a copy of ‘‘Kin ar,”’ and the reading of that play mark the beginning of a passionate love for its author. He was a great admirer of the writings of Charles Dickens, but when Dickens was in America Ingersol] was in- vited to met him at dinner, and flatly re- fused to do so, being greatly offended by the caricature of America and Americans drawn by Dickens in ‘“‘Martin Chuzzlewit.” The Colonel afterwards said that he had never ceased to regret missing this oppor- tunity of meeting the great novelist, and remarked that he enjoyed the description of “the flourishing town of Eden and its in- habitants’’ as much as anybody. Victor Hugo was another author with whom Ingersoll was wonderfully conver- sant. When he was asked which of the novels he had read he considered the great- ot: = iserables,"’ he answered with- out @ moment’a hesitation. “It has no equal. But a “Tale of Two Cities’ would be perhaps my second choice.”’ agnes was his favorite composer. In a breach of promise case the evidence showed that the defendant had taken his alleged betrothed several times to the Germa opera~to ‘Tristan and Isolde” and others. In summing up a rather forlorn hope de- fense, the Colonel said: “Gentlemen, you have heard that the defendant frequently took the plaintiff to the German opera— there to hear the masterpieces of agner —those waterfalls of melody. The man who has conferred such a benefit upon a wo- man should not be subjected by her to a suit of this kind. That should absolve him!’’ Mr. Ingersoll was most devoted to his daughters. It was to Eva that Ward Beecher sald upon first meeting her and learned that she as well as her aister shared their father’s irreligious views: “You are the most beautiful heathen I have ever seen.”’ It was her age gi too, that won over am ardent hater of Ingersoll and his unbe- lief. That was at Victoria where the op- position to Ingersoll was so strong that in order to deliver a schedule of lectures he had to charter a steamer and take his audience out of the province. A guest at the hotel, an Englishman, learned that Inger- sol was coming there, and announced that he would leave—the same roof could not shelter him and one 60 godless. As he sat at dinner the Colonel's wife and daughter entered the room, unattended, and the Englishman, struck with Eva's beauty, esked if she were saint or woman, and if the latter, what was her name. When he was told that she was Ingersoll’s daughter he thought a bit and said: ‘After all, I shall remain; the father of such woman as that cannot be wholly wicked.”’ Eva was married in 1888 to Walston Hill Brown, a wealthy man of Wall street. The one clause {in the marriage settlement was that Eva and her parents should not be separated, and it was kept to the letter. In summer the Ingersolls lived with the} Browns and in winter the Browns lived with the Ingersolls at their house. His daughter’s two children, Eva and Robert Ingersoll, were the chief claim- ant’s upon Col. Ingersoll's interest an ection. “ long ago Mrs. Sarah Cooper, the hilanthropist. visited her cousin, Robert ingersoll. in New York.

Ingersol’s first work was in the office of the Circuit Clerk of Williamson County and he taught school in the winter. In de- scribing the courthouse to a friend In a letter he said that it was “a equare box with a horse tied on each side and a pim- ple on the top.’’ He read law in the office of Col. Willis Allen and was in a ehort time admitted to the bar. After his admission he taught achoo] in Metrcpolis, on the Ohio River, and practiced law. In 1856, with his fa- ther and brother, he removed to Shawnec- town, and in 1858 to Peoria, where he and his brother Clark built up a large prac- tice. Robert early gained a reputation as a brilliant advocate and jury eryee, and his services were eagerly sought for. He was bold, dudacious and inexhaustible. He regarded his duty to his clients first and his opponents never knew what move he might next make and snatch all hope of victory from them. A story was told of him to-day by one of the old members of the bar. Ingersoll was trying a case before Judge Puterbaugh and had made some rather stringent remarks regarding the judge. Judge Puterbaugh fined bim $6 for contempt of court. “Bob” promptly “eoee up and. eald: “Puterbaugh lend me §$." The Judge, turning to the clerk, said: “Mr. Clerk, I cannot afford to lose $5; you may mark the fine remitted.” Ingersoll was careless of money. The business of the firm increased very fast, and the fees rolled in. He grew reckless and fell in with the fast young men of the time here, and for some years was con- sidered ‘‘one of the boys,’’ though he never exhibited depraved tastes. ‘He married Miss Parker, a daughter of Benjamin Parker of Tazewell County, the ceremony being performed by the Rev. 8. G. J. Worthington, father of Judge Worth- ington of the Appellate Bench of Illinois. Two children were ‘born of this marriage and there was never a more kind and indul- ent father. He made of his home a para- ise and its beauties had a great effect on hig future life. Shortiy after his marriage he organized the Eleventh Illinois Cavalry and was made its Colonel. Many of the mecnbers reside here now. A few years ago the regiment held a@ re-union near here and ‘Col. Bob.” as the members called him, was present. He said to a crowd of his old cronies here in Peoria after the re-union, that it Was one of the eae oe days of his life. During the war his regiment participated in many of the engagements, particularly the flerce battle of Pittsburg Lendina. in the celebrated raid in the rear of Corinth the battle of Corinth and Iuka. He proved a brave man and determined leader. He re- signed his commission in June, 1863, and returned to his home. He ran for Congress in this district on the Democratic ticket, but was defeated.

It is related of him by those who were intimate with his family when he was a boy that his youth gave little promise of the distinguished character to which he attained. He was wild, scarum, yeeey for any prank that promised fun and reckiess of consequences. He was not of a bad disposition, but full of life. The same kindness of heart that always characterised him was noticeable In his boy life, though he was ever ready for a school-boy bout. Parental restraint was rather lax, ex- cept that he was required to attend church Sunday. He was a doubter of the words from the pulpit even when a boy.

Ingersoll. The poe was entitled “Declaration of the Free:’’ | We have no falsehoods to defend— We walk according to otr light, | We want the facts; Pursue the path Our force, our thought, we do not spend That leads to honor’s stainless height, In vain attacks. Careless of wrath And we will never meanly try Or curse of God or priestly spite, To save some fair and pleasing lie.

We love no phantoms of the skies, But living flesh, With passions soft and soulful eyes, Lips warm and fresb, And cheeks with health’s red flag unfurled, The breathing angele of this world.

Fair Grounds Folk Will Be There. The next great fight for the world’s cham- Pionship will take place at New York on October 1. James Jeffries and Tom Sharkey will be the principals, and that & will be a battle of giants is proven by the portraits pub- lished in this Sunday's Post-Dispatch, which show the wonderful physical devel- opment of the two men. In all the fights for the world’s cham- Pionship in recent years the men have not been well matched in so far as size is con- cerned. Jeffries towered away over Fitzsimmons in height, weight and in other points, and Corbett was aiso a bigger man than Fitz- simmons when they met at Carson City. Previous to their meetin Corbett met Mitchell, who was a dwarf in comparison to his opponent. And so it has been In all the championship fights in recent years.. But when Jeffries and Sharkey come to- gether it will be a meeting of two genuine etrong men. Jeffries has physical attributes that tend toward making a great fighter. He weighs more than did John L. Sullivan when ne was in his prime. His reach is 76% inches, three inches longer than Fitzsimmons’. He stands 6 feet 1 inch in his stocking feet, and | is but 35 inches around the waist. The)! heavy shoulder development necessary to | success in a fighter is his in great quantity, | and with a 17%-inch neck his head is poised on his shoulders to stay. Jeffries is verhaps the youngest heavy- weight boxer of championship timber in the business. and stands 6 feet 1 inch in his stockings. He is a fine looking athiete, weighing about 208 pounds in condition, and was born in Ohio about &% years ago. His professional debut was made early in 1897, and his first ring engagement was with 7 ut to sleep in two , 1897. One must see Jeffries in action to fully appreciate the importance of his methods. While he does not disregard the importance of protecting his body and face with his right he also strives to utilize the left for that purpose, at the same time throwing in @ quick, hard blow with the right. This js the blow which will defeat Sharkey !f anything does. Another peculiarity of Jeffries is his sys- tem of quick hammering with his right. He very often strikes four and five blows with the right short arm, all in quick suc- cession, while other prize fighters save that arm for a final and single smash, depending upon the long range to do great damage and deliver a knockout. But with Jeffries, by the time he has put in a few right-hand- ers his gifted left is far enough back to come in with frightful velocity and powérT. Van Buskirk, whom he rounds at Frisco, April ogg A like Jeffries, is a giant in phy- esique. e has the bull neck, stocky arms and légs of a Graeco-Roman wrestler. If he were a trifie taller he would be an exact counterpart of William Muldoon, the famous Graeco-Roman wrestler, who, in fhis day was perhaps the strongest man liv- ing. Sharkey. like Jeffries, too, Is a young man. He was born in Dundalk, Ireland, Nov. 23, 1873, so that he is now in his twenty-sixth year. Compared to Jeffries in height heise dwarf, for while the former stands over six feet, Sharkey’s measurement is five feet eight and one-half inches, only Being by no means a clever boxer and not so fast now as Jeffries, one can scarcely se2 Where the sailor bas a single chance to defeat his burly opponent. As a matter of fact, however, tn his last meeting with Jeffries, Sharkey went the full 20 rounds and there were some who thought him as much entitled to the de- cision as Jeffries, to whom it was given. What these two big fellows will do to each other when they meet remains to be geen, for both have learned all the ins and outs of boxing since facing each other in their memorable bout at San Francisco, which took place:May 6, 1898, just a little over a year ago. Without a doubt, the prettiest and best boxing match that has ever been brought off in St. Louis -will be witnessed next Mon- day night at the West End Club, when Morris Rauch of Chicago and Casper Leon of News York battle 20 rounds for the ban- tamweight championship. These two men are top-notchers tn their class, fast as there is in the business, game as pebbles and thoroughly up in all the an- gies of the boxing game. But outside of their meeting there wil! be other great things to see at the West End, Monday night, for then and there Kane and Kelly and Lines and Gultere, al] fa- mous jockeys, will do battle with each Other and all the Fair Grounds will be there to see. At their own request the bat- tle between Lines and Guiteres has been lengthened to ten, while Kelly and Rauch Will box six rounds. One week from Monday night is the time set for ‘the opening event of the Ommercial Club at the Fourteenth Street eater, under the management of «the Veteran Parson Davies. t will witness the first appearance here of George Dixon, the featherweight champion of the world, Who is to meet Eddie Santry of Chicago in @ @-round bout. George Siler will be here fo referee and the night will be a red letter one in the history of local boxing, Commenting on the possibility of the com- ing fight between Jeffries and Sharkey be- decided in San Francisco, “Big Bill’ Naughton, one of the most capable of fistia _@ritics, has some sensible views to expound. Among other things he says: “San Francisco is the most liberal town in the whole world in the matter of patron- ming pugilism. With 400,000 inhabitants to draw from it gave $2,000 to witness the ee se none zo This was the est it assemblage ever known |} this city. 4 “New York, with {ts 3,000,000 residents, a 00 to see Fitzsimmons and Jef- ries box, Figured from the population standpoint, the claim made for San Fran- cisco on the score of liberality is there- fore easily substantiated. “It is a far cry from $25,000 to $71,000, however, and the pugilists and their mana- gers like to be ‘where the money is.’ “In the present instance it may be urged that the importance of the contest would result in an abnormal attendance and would Warrant San Francisco fight promoters in Didding higher than usual. The same argu- ment would hold good in regard to New York. Again, it might be advanced that ‘the pictures’ would induce San Francisco bidders to be extra liberal. Possibly so, but the HMastern promoters will also allow ‘the pictures’ to enter into their calcula- tions. “All ny, a considered, it looks as if New York has the bulge on us In bidding for the ch. “It may be, however, these local bids are Made on the assumption that it is possible to wean Sharkey and Jeffries away from their Eastern managers and prevail upon them to cancei all existing engagements and arrange a fresh deal at this end.

ST. LOUIS TEAM DOING WELL. They Play the New York Team and the Brooklyns at League Park This Week The past week, which the St. Louls Club has spent. campaigning over the Eastern Circuit, has been far more successful than the local enthusiasts have dared to hope. When the club left home they were in sixth place, and contrary to general expec- tation the boys have not let up in thelr work since then, Instead, they have im- proved. ‘ In Brooklyn they took one game in three from that great aggregation. In New York twice they came off victori- ous, and as a finishing touch to their Bast- ern trip they walloped the Champions two games in three. The above record is indeed a good oné, considering that it was made away from home. During this trip half the time they have been without the services of that excellent layer, Roderick Wallace, but despite this Ladiedus they thave played good ball. McKean and Childs have taken up their old positions. The former is playing at short field, and the latter at second base. Their work has improved and they have figured in each contest that the team has won. On this Sunday the third Western trip of the Eastern clubs begins. Before another week will pass over the heads of the American enthusiast, a great change may be wrought in the National League standing. The first four clubs are close together, and unless the Eastern clubs play better ball this trip than they did on their last visit a new name may be seen at the top of the League aver- ages. The Philadelphias are safely tnstalled in second position. That aggregation of Dall talent which was expected to go up in the air any day, continues to play fast ball. The past week they’ve made ae clean sweep, winning every game they played on their home grounds. In each game the batting of the Quaker City team was the feature. Not only this, but their brilliant work in the fleld has helped them to a great extent. Boston is in third place, with St. Louis fourth, and Chicago -fifth. Boston's work has not been good the past week. Their field work has been very poor and unless they wake up they will fin themselves a peg lower and 8st. Louis ahead of them. The McGraw obinson contingent have not been pleased with, the showing of the team, and a general shaking up will prob- ably be the next thing in order there. Jake Stenzel, who was recently released from the St. Louis Club is playing a great game in the outfleld for the Cincinnati Club. He has been prominent in every game the Reds have played, his good work at the bat winning several games. It was indeed a dark day when so good a man as Stenzel was released from the St. Louis team, Hemphill, Cuppy and Jones have worked faithfully during the absence of the team and are in good shape. They kept a close tab on their absent comrades and found much satisfaction in their record. They were very sore over the boss of the first ame in Brooklyn, which they claim should ave been a St. Louis victory. The second defeat by the Superbas was not taken to to heart. Linen sympathized with Sudhoff, who was knocked out of the box, and rejoiced over McBride’s great showing. Cuppy can’t be convinced that the team won't be as good as third on Oot. 16. “We'll make good yet and we'll be close to the top at the finish,” he says. “The players on the other teams fear us. They know and appreciate our speed. I believe that the boys are right.” Jack Powell has regained his old-time eens form. The lion’s share of the cred- t for winning the initial game at Boston belongs to Powell, who pitched great ball at critical stages. McKean made a bad bluff at playing short, although no errors were charged against him. is slowness was painful. Childs showed great form. Tebeau made two timely hits. His home run in the fourth netted three runs, and his single started the seventh, which yield- ed three more tallies. Parent has hgen returned to New Haven. Cincinnati is still in the second division. The ‘“‘Red Leg’ boys who started their Jastern trip by dropping games, took a brace and played good ball against Balti- more. Buck Ewing has not had the best of luck this year, but he continues, however to receive the support of the Cincinnat publMec and it is hoped that he will be suc- cessful before the season closes. Sunday, July 2, the Giants open a series of four games at League ark. The Brooklyn Superbas are scheduled for July 27, 29 and 30, and on July 28—an open date —the tie game of their first trip will be played. Their last game falls on a Sunday date. The champion Bostons follow. After this series, the Perfectos go on the road again for over two weeks. Sketches of Oarsmen That Will Rep- resent Them at Boston. The twenty-seventh annual regatta of the National Association of Amateur Oars- men will take place on the Charles River near Boston, Mass., July 2 and 2. The regatta will be held under the au- spices of the New England Amateur Row- ing Association. The race is interesting to 8. Louisans, for the reagon that the crack four-oared crew of the Western Rowing Club fs en- tered in the senior four and in the senior international four-oared race. he st e rowed by the Western crew is the same which has made Cornell crews famous and as taught by Charles Courtney namely a clear feather of oars, using full slide with heavy catch. The course is a splendid one, with very little current, owing to the river being sub- ject to tide, The crew which the Westerns will send West is a great one and they havo great hopes of it winning. Gustave Voerge, the bowman, is 27 years of age and weighs 142 pounds. He won his first race at Black Lake, Mich., in August, 1897, at the fp ees of the Mississippi Val- ley Amateur Rowing Association, being a member of the Western’s winning junior four and pair-oared crews.

If they cannot hold their own there no other Western team need try for similar honor. De Hodiamonts at Maddenville. The Maddenvilles would like to have it understood that it was not them who were defeated by the O. K.’s some few days ago, as stated in this column on July 15, but it was a team who called themselves the Win- doms, they shaving no connection whatever with the Maddenville Club. The error was the fault of the O. K. captain. The Mad- denvilles play the De Hodiamonts Sunday at Maddenville Park. iad NEW YACHT HAD A RUN WITH THE DEFENDER. SHE WORKED OUT AHEAD. It Was Not a Good Test and Apparent- ly Nothing Decisive Was Developed. NEWPORT, R. I., July 2—The Columbia left her moorings at 11:45 o’clock this morn- ing and stood down the harbor under main sail, working topsail and jib. The Defender preceded the new boat by about 15 minutes and moved slowly down under three lower pails, baby jib, topsail and club topsail. The wind was light from the northwest, having shifted from the south southeast. The boats lost their breeze below Fort Adams for ful- ly half an hour and drifted about with sails flapping idly. The Defender touched her keel on the rocks off the cemetery at Fort Adams and was aground for several minutes. Captain Rhodes ordered her jib topsail down, and a naphtha launch came alongside, took 4 line and pulled tae Defender off into deep wel The boat was not injured appa- rently. At 12:32 o’clock the breeze picked up @ bit, and the two big yachts slipped along slowly toward Beaver Tails light. Then the wind came in from the south. The Colum- bia, getting the shift first, set her jib top- sail and made good speed out to Brentons Reef lightship. The Defender followed the Columbia down past the lightship without making any attempt to cross the line or make the start until both boats were half a mile beyond the light, Then they came together and stood off in a southerly di- rection for a couple of miles. Both tacked in shore, and finally came about, heading for Point Judith. Large jib topsails were set and the yachts reached over to the point with Defender in the lead. The Co- lumbia was towing a tender and carried a working topsail. Honors-were about even. At 2:20 o’clock the yachts came about and headed back toward the lightship, then about four miles away. The easterly breeze was freshening and great speed was made, The Columbia was to windward, and when they luffed up at Brenton’s Reef she had worked out ahead. They eailed the four miles in about 2 minutes and came up to their moorings at 8:30. THE CHAMPIONS’ MANAGER. He Regards the Superbas and Phillies as the Strongest Teams Outside His Own. BOSTON, July 22.—This afternoon Mana- ger Selee of the champion Boston team, had this to say about this year’s race for the National League pennant: “The present champions, the Superbas, the Phillies and Tom Burns’ orphans I re- gard as the atrongest teams in the race, and the running for the pennant will be confined to those teams, though I regard \Mthe Phillies more dangerous to us than the Orphans Why, that gang of hustlers from ‘the silent town by the banks of the Dela- ware extracted the breath from us and swept us off our underpinning by the tus- isles they gave us, and it was no disgrace to be trounced by such a crew. They have taken five of the seven games played with us. Tihey are doing more than hitting out games. In previous seasons we used to say, ‘O, yes the Phillles won to-day. They shit out another game, But they are easy to beat and they are yellow fielders.’ ‘But that isn’t the case this year. They are playing steady, every-day ball in the field, and while they could stand for an- other left hander as good as Piatt, still their pitching corps have done fair work on the last trip. ow that ‘they have pur- chased Magee they will be strong on the rubber. I tell you, sports, that when those artillerymen, Lajoie and Delahanty, take a Jeffries lead at ball, the twirlers who are feeding ’em offer up a ‘now-I-lay-me-down- to-sleep prayer, and trust to vidence, The batting of this pair buoys up the con- fidence of the other hitters, though Flick needs no jacking P of the sand in his craw. He led the Eastern players at the bat on the last trip. ‘‘Lajoie I look upon as a ball playing genius, endowed with more natural talent as a natural ball player than any star we have seen since Charley Ferguson. Lajoie may not have an excess of gray matter floating around in his head. I speak of his great mechanical talents, pure and simple. “Our experience with the Superbas has about half way convinced me that they are not as dangerous as the Phillies, though, of course, this is no criterion as far as it applies to other teams that the Phillies and Superbas have met.” “Outlaws” Want to Be Recognized.

She Won the Last Race Handily by Three Lengths, Spread-Eagling Her Field. ee The weather was cloudy and threatening Saturday afternoon, but there was the usual big attendance at the Fair Grounds. Thirteen books drew in, this not including the two field books. The track was very dry and dusty when the day’s racing was commenced, but a light shower which came just after the first race laid the dust and put the track ‘in good shape. Just before the fourth race still another heavy shower appeared, changing the track conditions considerably and making the Fair Grounds one of the most pleasant spots imaginable. There was some poenty racing during the afternoon, but the form players had a trifle the worst of it, favorites being bowled over in several races in w they were heavily played, The first race was at a mile and eae half. There were nine starters, and of these Miss Edwards may be said to haye been in front all the way and Kodak last. Miss Edwards won in a walk, pulled up four lengths in front of Kodak, who was only a neck in front of Friskal, who came third, Miss Bramble was barred in the betting in the second race, There were ten others who were not. ‘Miss Bramble led to the betting quarters, when ehe quit badly, swerving into the inner rail as soon as The Pride came near her. The Pride won by a length from Miss Bramble, who was three lengths ahead of Mousque who finished third. Trust Me was fourth. As Miss Bramble was barred in the bettin the bookies paid off on Mousquetaire an Trust Me for the place and show. Only six started in the third race. Of these Hitholin was the first choice at 4 to 5, with Judge Steadman next in favor at 9 to 6. Charlemagne went into the lead at the clubhouse with Bitholin a length be- hind him. Charlemagne untlh they rounded into the stretch, when BHitholin and Judge Steadman came away. They were almost’ abreast as they came into the stretch, Ditholin being perhaps a neck in advance of the other horse. It was a duel between them all the way from the head of the stretch home, first one leadi and then the other. In the final ten yards Judge Steadman came on and just managed to beat Hitholin by a short nose. The race was one of the prettiest run at the track this year. In the fourth race at six furlon Gertie, with Jenkins up, was 3) to 32 favorite out of the six that faced the flag. Tulla Fonso was the first away from the gate. She led her fleld by two or three lengths clean,to the stretch. Then the fa- vorite came away and won as ehe pleased from ‘Wiggins, who came secon 7 Tulla 'Fonso, who finished a close third. Raffaello was the favorite in the fifth race, being at 3 to 2 from the commencement to the close of the betting. Pinochle led the bunch the first half mile, with Salvarse close up and the rest at their heels. Sal- varse came away from all at the stable turn and led the field all the way home, winning by two lengths from Gaston, | nr was a iength in front of the favorite faello, who finished third. Banish went into the lead when the fla fell in the sixth race and looked a winne all over to the stable turn. Then the favor- ite, Duke of Baden, came away, leading all into the stretch ard winning easily by three lengths from Banish, who was nearfty S leneee in front of Hittick, who came rd, Of the nine that accepted the Issue tn the seventh and last race Alice Turner was the favorite at 4 to 1, with Arthur Behan next in favor at 4% to 1. Lady Curzon was away in front and she led to the head of the stretch. There Alice Turner came away with a fine burst of speed and she won handily by three lengths from San Cecelia who was three-quarters of a length in front of Sue Johnson, who finished third.

TT The Referee Expresses His Opinion on the Subject and Tells Some Good Things About the Automobiles. a The time has come for those who op- pose the L. A. W. control of racing, I Tean those in the L. A. W. and its friends, to begin a vigorous crusade. The annual elections of the divisions wil! begin in a short time and the ballots should contain a blank for the expression of the opinion of the individual members On this subject. When the Executive Committee of the L. A. W. was instructed to examine into the feasibility of dropping racingp at the Na- tional Asscmbly at the meeting heid in this city in 1897, it discussed the matter and then reported at the next meeting that there was no body to which to turn over the sport.

At Night the Britishers Gave Their Guests a Banquet and Com- plimented Them. LONDON, July 22.—The English and American athletes came together at Lon- don to-day. The gates of the Queen's grounds were thrown open at 2:15 p. m. to take crowds that were already surrounding the en- trance. The American and English flags were flying from the center of the grounds. The contestants in the first events were warmly applauded as they entered the grounds, following, as they were, the judges, referees and timekeepers. The Jump was made just in front of the pavilion and royal box, while simultaneously the ham- mer throwing commenced at the center of the grounds. It soon became evident that the events would tie, and when the English flag rose for the jumpers and was followed by the American succeeding the hammer- throwing, both sides had a chance to give vent to their cheers. | arrival of the team in England, although Mr. Wendell managed to xeep it secret and the athlete was by no means himself to-day. The Prince of Wales was especially de- lighted with the hurdles and sent a mess- age of congratulation to Fox, the winner. ro H. Brooks of Yale, who held the Yale quarter mile record, said at the conclu- sion of the games: “The friends of Yale and Harvard are satisfied that the team lost the. game on merits. Burke's failure was the crucial test. That is due to causes that could not be prevented, and we have no explanation or excuses to offer. It was evident when the race was half run that Burke was not in the form we anticipated. We expected to have won the hurdle race and the dash rather than the half-mile, but that onl shows how difficult it is to determine speci- fie results on the day before a race.” E. J. Wendell, the Harvard steward, said: “No word of excuse or explanation can come from any friend of the American team. We were met in the handsomest spirit and lost fairly on our merits or de- merits. Certainly no one can say more of English hospitality or sportsmanship, and no friend of Yale or Harvard has a word of complaint to utter.’”’ The afterroon papers, which were issued before tne beginning of the contests at the uéen’s Club, gave much space to-day to at event. The 8t. James Gazette said: “We, of course, hope the Americans wilt be beaten in the odd event, but if they are it will be a victory for our men to be proud of, for the Harvard-Yale athletes will require a lot of beating. The serious side of these international] meetings is the less likely to be despised by those who know human na- ture best and especially by those who un- derstand the Free Masonry of sport. It is not a trifle that we are so often brought into friendly rivalry with America and have these opportunities for forming personal friendships with her representative men.”’ The Pall Mall Gazette devotes a leading éditorial article to the subject, concluding as follows: “By all means let Young Eng- a eR THE LOUISVILLE COLONEIS TOOK THEM INTO CAMP, THE SCORE WAS NINE TO TWO.

Grand Rapids 2, Minneapolis O. GRAND RAPIDS, Mich., July 22.—Grand Rapids lost to-day through errors and un- steadiness of Pitcher Waddell. Score: Others of the Eastern members wanted to “drop it in the middle of the road and let anybody who wanted it pick it up.” This policy, of course, was condemned and the league continued its Racing Board. We have seen what a stormy time the board and, in fact, the whole league has had during the past season and if we want to avoid it in the future we would better let racing g0. While the present state of affairs exists there will be no real sport. The N. C. A. does not contro] either its tracks or the racing men in its union. The organization has a series of racing rules copied from the L. A. W. rules and a form of government modeled after that of the league. There are, indeed, very few differences between the two sets of rules, and the men who are running the N. Cc. A. are men who have filled similar offices in the L. A. W. In fact, I cannot seé what the outlaws gained or what they wanted to secede for, for they will get the same treatment in case the N. C. A. succeeds in wresting the con- trol of the sport from the league, that they did before. On the other hand, it must be admitted that the L. A. W. is not controlling the men as it did in former times.

Only last week a man who has been transfered to the professional class and been refused reinstatement by the National Assembly, was permitted to com- Pete in the amateur class. It wouM appear to a man up a tree that a state of anarchy existed in the matter of cycle racing, and that there was no gOv- ernment by either body. Should both bodies weather the storm this year and the question continue to be a live one until next February, the National As- sembly cannot complain that there is no body to which it can turn over the control. It is true that the head men of the N. C. A. are not such as to inspire confidence, but then if it really had the control of racing it would be only a short time before the patrons of the sport would demand and ob- tain better men in their places.

I am a League man first, last and al! times, and I do not believe that any other organization can do for the sport what the L. A. W. did.

AB H PO Just behind the densest crowd, with a few American and Yale and Harvard flags marking the spot, the defeated American runners were led back to their room by their admirers, Both English and Americans cheered the plucky losers, and amid a tri- umphant blaring of “God Save the Queen” by the band the crowds slowly dispersed. In the one mile run Fremantle took the lead, going at a good pace, and led for the first two laps, unter closely following, with Smith and Spotzer next and Dawson at the rear. On the last lap Fremantle re- tired and Hunter, running strong, soon put a wide gap between himseif and the ouhers, Dawson going up to second place. Entering the straight for home, Spotzer made a gallant attempt for second place and drew even, but after a few yards Daw- son again passed him and finished second, Spotzer being third.

In the hurdles Fox led from start to finish and won by two and a half yards, there being half a yard between Paget- Tomlinson and Parkes. There was tremen- dous cheering from the Yale and Harvard stands when it wae ‘announced that Fox had equaled the British amateur record. In the half-mile run Streuben led for the first lap, followed by Adams, Gra- ham and Burk im the order mentioned. When this lap had been completed Graham went to the front, and, running in splendid Style, won by about eight yards, amongst the excited cheers from the Wnglishmen and the depression and silence on the part of the Americans. Streuben was second and Adams third. Burke was last and did not finish, being 60 badly used up that he had to be supported to the pavilion and carried up stairs. His trainer said that his stomach had gone back on him. There was a level start for the quarter- mile run and Boardman cut out the pace at a tremendous rate. Entering the straight for home Hollins just led Boardman, with Davison last. About 70 yards from home Davison came up with a tremendous rush on the outside and won by five yards. Boardman rallied considerably near home, making a grand but hopeless struggle. The three-mile run was the next event of the aay. After going about & yards the three Englishmen singled themselves out in line, Wilberforce just leading, Workman and Smith, Foote, Clarke and Palmer of the Yale-Harvard team following closely. This order was retained during the second lap, except that Palmer went up 50 feet. At the mile the time was 4 minutes, 58 seconds. Wilberforce still led, but shortly afterwards retired, and Smith took up the running, just ahead of Workman, with Clarke and Palmer a couple of yards be- hind and Foote # feet away. In the back- stretch Clark suddenly plunged headfore- most on the track, leaving Palmer to take up the contest with Workman. Shortly after this Smith fell in front of the pavil- ion. The race was now left to Workman and Palmer. In the eighth lap both led alternately, and, coming by the Yale sone, the plaudits of his fellow collegiates cause Palmer to make a final effort, but Work- man was running ve strongly, and again went to the front and won as fhe i. , i the high jump H. 8.

SPRINGFIELD, Ill., July 22.—When Gov. Jonn Riley Tanner returns from his six weeks’ outing in the far West he will find work necessary to mend holes in his fences, Senator Cullom hag been in LUlinols for a solid month, and bids fair te remain an- other. He has made speeches, written a barrel of letters, seen severa] hundred dis- trict leaders and patiently made hay. Mr. Cullom may succeed himself, whether Gov. Tanner wills it or no. When Senator Cullom placed Lewis F. Miner, the largest stockholder in the Springfield Journal, in charge of the Postoffice here, he ‘“‘made a ten-strike."’ He did it by removing his son- in-law, William Barrett Ridgely. Gov. Tan- ner, a long while ago, made Harry Dorwin “assistant secretary to the Governor,” with a stipend of $2300 per annum. Dorwin !s Cullom’s nephew, and Tanner’s bold action was then deemed wise, because Dorwin was a heavy stockholder in the Journal... Cullom is backed by such men as Floyd K. Whitte- more, State treasurer; United States Mar- shal Charlie Hitch, and District Attorne Tanner controls 1 institutione, besides other good noe, but in the matter of patronage the enator can more than hold his own with the Governor, Gov.

Fifty-three concerns have entered into the combination, and they will hereafter con- trol the greater part of the output of the country. Rumor had it that the scheme came very nearly going up in thin air, as the manufacturers wanted cash for their plants, but the promoters could not see this end the basis finally agreed upon was 30 per cent cash, 30 per cent in preferred stock ne 60 per cent common stock in the trust. t will be seen that the figures show 110 er cent has been pald in cash and stock or the plants which are in the deal. I do not suppose that the combine will affect the trade or the general public this year, as they are getting to work a little too late to do that, but watch out for next . I will be willing to wager that there ll not be more n two or three houses handling bicycles in this city next year, and that there will a general stiffeni in the prices. There is another way in which the public will feel the pressure of the trust. We, who work for a lIiving, will find a lot of bicycle salesmen and clerks, who have been turned off by the trust, hunting for our jobs, and if we ha n to lose our positions there will be just that e bicycle dealer has gon many more lying for them.

In the mile race Dngland enjoyed a mo- nopoly from start to finish. The odd event was picked up gloriously by Fox of Har- vard defeating the English crack, Paget Tomlinson, in the cleanest hurdling ever seen on the turf. Burke's defeat in the hal@mile run again evened results and brought disappointment to the Americans, Ww had counted on win- ning with Burke. Burke, however, had been suffering from a weak stomach for nearly a year and this proved fatal to his guccess. The three-mile run was the deciding event, and when on the last lap it was seen that Workman of the Oxford-Cambridge team would win and England thereby gain the odd event, there was a ecene of wild enthusiasm, conservative Englishmen and women rushing on the field to acclaim the victor. A dense crowd instantly surround- ed Workman, and it was with great diffi- culty that the stewards succeeded in mak- ing a way for him to the pavilion. Here another scene of frantic excitement took lace, members of the English team rush- ng forward and crying: ‘Well run, Work- man,” while on the field the crowds cheered and waved hats and handkerchiefs. Work- man wae led to the top baloony of the pa- vilion and there bowed to the enthusiastic thousands, while cries of ‘“‘Hurrah for old England,” and the song, “For He's a Jolly Good Fellow” rent the air A tremendous waving oof me and a shouting of the Harvard and Yale Uni- versity yells eeted the victory of the arvard man. e nds were now com- pletely filled and presented a beautifu picture, The great quadrangle was banked on four sides with tiers of seats where gor- geous summer toilets were displayed, while the sunshine was just streng enough to emphasize the perfection of the scene. As the stands led up masses of blue and crimson manifested themselves at intervals where Yale and Harvardites collected, and the familiar blue flag with the white ‘“Y’’ center surrounded the Americans’ colors on the same stick, pave these sections of the stands a than ving day polo grounds aspect. In honor of the American guests the bands played Selections from “E] Cap itan”’ and the “Belle of New York.” The Englishmen exhibited splendid judg- ment in the quarter-mile, half-mile and three-mile runs, the second string in each race making the running for his comrade to come through at the finish.

About three weeks ago Embree, “4 years Old, assaulted Miss Willie Dougherty, the 14-vear-old daughter of W. W. Dougherty of Burton township, this county. Miss Dougherty is little more than a child and of small stature and deiicate. Since his arrest and extradition from Kan- sas Embree has been confined at Mexico, Mo., and it was while on the way io thiscity for trial to-day that he was taken from his guard of four deputy sheriffs at 6 o'clock this morning at a point on the Fayeite & Glasgow road, seven miles north of this city, and carried to the scene of his crime, Embree left Mexico at. 3:45 this morning in the charge of a deputy sheriff.

They insisted that the negro shoald not be burnt. A »ope was thrown around Emoree’s neck and he was led under an oak tree.

TOPEKA, Kaen., July 22—When Frank Embree was arrested in Kansas his rela- tives in Anderson County represented to Gov. Stanley that public sentiment against the negro had reached the lynching stage, and urged him to require a pledge from, the Missourians that there should be no violence done. When the Governor of Mis- souri sent to Gov. Stanley a requisition for Embree the Kansas executive insisted upon a pledge that the negro would be given a fair trial. Sheriff G. D. Gibson of Howard County came to Topeka July 3 and told Gov. Stanley that it would not be neces- sary to take Embree to Howard County. “Let me take him,” said Gibson, “and I'll let him name an adjoining county for his place of imprisonment. He can take his pick of four counties.” Gov. Stanley then granted the re and Sheriff Gibson left that night nett, where EDmbree was in jail. JEFFERSON CITY, Mo., July 22.—Gov. Stepheng stated to-night that he, himself, did not promise Gov. Stanley to protect Frank Embree, but that the authorities of Howard County gave to him a pledge to rotect Embree, and that he wrote to Gov. tanley that Sheriff Gibson of Howard County had insured Embree’s safety. Gov. Stephens stated further that he was * real sorry that the people took the case in hand and lynched Embree and did not give him | } | | FRANK BMBREE. toilet. The conductor told the crowd at Higbee that the sheriff had left the train at Clark. At Armstrong he told the same thing, but the crowd was not satisfied with this and searched the train. At this point Embree tried to escape. He and the deputy were in hiding when Em- bree made a violent effort to jump from the window. He was held by the officer a struggle.

He said he thought he could prove his innocence if giv- en an opportunity. Alex Jester, the alleged murderer of Gates. whose cell is near the one Embree occupied, hearing of the negro’s fate, said: “IT believe he was guilty. Of course he would deny it.”’ He says that Dmbree had been downcast from the time he heard of his indictment. ‘When they woke him up this morning,” eaid Jester, “to take him to his fate he expressed his feelings in unprintable lan- guage.”’ oe GEN.

Special to the Post-Dispatch. WASHINGTON, July 22.—John E. Wilkie, chief of the Secret Service, makes a state- nient over his signature reciting the history of the capture of the famous Carranza let- ter, which has been the subject of a re- markable story, related by a man named George F. Bell of Montreal, in which he al- leges that the letter was altered after it had been seized. Mr. Wilkie’s narration of the facts in the case best establish the falsity of the charges, but, in addition, ne says there is absolutely no foundation for the statements made by Bell. No deal was entered into by the Washington ofilice with any one cut- side the service, and no one saw the letter until ‘after Mr. Wiikie nad removed it from the enveiope cOlitaining it.

M. Garcia, a wealthy ranchman from Hebronville, Tex., was robbed of $550 in a dice game in a saloon near Union Station yesterday. Charles Heimann was arrested at 2344 Olive street on suspicion of being one of the men who did the job. Garcia was stopping at the Terminal Hotel and while walking on the Midway he met a well-dressed young man, who said he was the son of a banker from San Antonio, Tex. He became acquainted with Garcia and they took a walk together. They landed in one of the saloons in the neighborhood of the station where the dice game is not unknown. The game was started and Garcia at first declined to play, He said he had no money, but showed a check for $550. A few minutes later Mr. Garcia’s check was gone and he was hunt- ing for a policeman to tell his troubles to. KILLED BY A RUNAWAY TEAM. Stanley Carroll, a Ten-Year-Old Boy, Was the Victim.

FORTUNE DECLARED INSANE AT CARLINVILLE. FANCIES HE IS VERY RICH. Former St. Louis Representative of the Litchfield Flour Mill Loses His Mind. Charles R. Fortune, late St. Louls repre- sentative for the Litchfield flour mill, op- erated by D. L. Wing at the latter place, was adjudged insane at Carlinville, Lil, yesterday and will be started for the State = Asylum at Jacksonville this morn- ng. Fortune had a pretty hallucination. He fortune, and had unlimited magic power. He was arrested yesterday morning at Virden, Ill., where he had conducted a small business recently. He arrived at Carlinville in the custody of Sheric Philip T, Megarden and was ac- companied by his wife and child. In Janu- ary last he gave evidences of mental fail- ure, which his friends attributed to over- work and nervous strain. Two months ago, w:-th his wife and child, he went to Lake Minnetonka for treatment and was appar- ently improving. A week ago they went to Minneapolis and stopped at the Nicoilet Hotel. It was then that his mental trouble assumed active form. He telegraphed President McKinley and Gen. Alger to send all the commanding Generals to Chicago, and he would inform them how to subdue the whole world with- out loss of a single man. While touring Minneapolis endeavoring to reform the world and present wh ae } and wounds of his many encounters. sourlan was fined $100 on ples and for Da M would take a shot at Col Anthony at every opportunity in the way of showing their hatred, and to this day Col, Anthony does not visit much in Platte County. Col. Anthony is best known as a jour- nalist, and in this line he amassed a for- tune estimated at someth over $300,000, won renown as a fighter made a num- personal enemies. His policy been to tell the truth, regardless of policy or consequences. His enemies claim that he maligns and misrepresents them, but in all the many libel and damage suits against him he has never been made to pay a cent. Col. Anderson generally conducted his side of a damage suit in rson, and few lawyers were able to match legal ointa. e has always managed to get control of every opposition Cully started in Leaven- worth, with the exception of the Standard, controlled by one of his bitter enemies, Mayor Neely, and he now has stock in it, and is already placing the majority owners in an embarrassing condition. There are at this writing three damage and one civil suit pending between the owners of the two papers. The Colonel’s editorial style would prob- ably be considered a little too aggressive a Christian Advocate. Col. thony has had beyond question mhore fights than any living editor, and his y shows aces 8 first trouble in Leavenworth took place on the day of his arrival from the ast, 46 hen eg ago. On that day there was a “Free il’ meeting in Leavenworth, and Col. Anthonys made a speech, so radical in its nature as to astound even the followers of John Brown and the men fighting the bor- der ruffians. The border ruffians imme- diately decided that Col. Anthony was a dangerous man to have among the Free Soilers, and they decided to get “rid” of him, and shot at him three times that night as he was in his room about to go to bed. He returned the fire and a ball struck one of his assailants, whose life was saved by a heavy silver watch. The opposition of Col. Anthony’s ene- mies ever since has been bitter and relent- ‘ess and of the most violent kind. They have resorted to assaults single-handed and in mobs, horsewhippings, beating with clubs and shootings. During war times Col. Anthony and the noted nsas ‘“‘red leg’’ Col. Jennison had an impromptu duel. They emptied eix- shooters at each other at close range, but neither was touched, and the only person hurt was a stranger, who was standing in a hotel doorway when a spent ball struck him on the neck. Col. Anthony came near dying from a pis- tol wound inflicted by W. W. mbry, a ri- val editor, who in turn was killed by his partner, Thomas Thurston, a noted desper- ado. This attempted assass'nation of Col. Anthony occurred in May, 1875, as Col. An- thony was coming into the opera house with his wife on his arm. ry was hiding behind a pillar and when Col. An- thony came in stepped out and fired at him three times at close range. Col. Anthony never wasted his powder on small men. No man was too high in official posttion for him to go after in case he thought there was justification for it. He was the leader in the fight that re- sulted in retiring Alexander Caldwell from the United States Senate. The defeat of his cousin, George T. Anthony, for a renom- ination for Governor was another of his personal victories. As a friend Col. An- thony is firm, active and devoted, and as an enemy—one might better chose some other man.

Pretty Florence Wagenmann has been missing from the home of her adopted par- ents, Mr. and Mrs. Charles Wagenmann, at 1337A Bayard avenue, since June 23, She is 14 years old, unusually well devel- oped for her age, and is described as ve attractive.

Her loss is as great a blow to them as if she were an only child, Mr. and Mrs. Wagenmann have driven through every street in St. Louis many times within the last month in the hope of seeing Florence. They have made inquiries in every section of the city, but have learned nothing of her. She has a mania for disappearing mys teriously and her foster parents hope she will return as she has done in the past. She left home early in the year a re- mained away three months. Mr. Wagen- mann says she was decoyed away woman who wanted her as a com He says he is convinced, however, woman has a to do with her disappearance, as he thas talked th her about it. He thinks that, perhaps, she became an- gry because she was reproved for her con- duct and suddenly determined to leave home. She took no clothing with her ex- cept what she wore. Florence is a finished musician and her education is better than most girls of her age have. Mr. Wagenmann says she never kept company with boys and he is satis- fleld no man is connected with her disap- pearance. Silk Umbrellas, Very Special Values.

His crime ts a mis- demeanor. He was fined $100. The limit is That polygamy does exist in ttah, in spite of the specific agreement made before its admission as a State, has been known to a moral certainty for several years. Brigham H. Roberts, Congressman-elect from Utah, does not hesitate to acknowl- edge that he has three wives. Now, President Cannon, a man | high in the councils of the Mormon Churchupon pe- ing called to account by the civic |authori- PP Msate Lake ANGUS M. term ‘she had a baby girl ties admits that he is married to more than ; one woman, This will arouse anew tha discussion | touching polygamy, of which so much has 'béen said during the last few months; and especially will it urge to renewed activity that branch of the Mormon Chur¢h, with headquarters in Iowa, which claims to be the true legacy of Joseph Smith. Angus M. Cannon has already served a in the Utah State Penitentiary for polygamy. In 18% he was arrestefl under the Edmunds law, tried, convicted 4nd sen- tenced to imprisonment, which sentence he served out tothe full. In that trial|)Martha Hughes Cannon, who figures in the pres- ent case, was badly wanted as a witness, but she had disappeared. Cannon has four wives living, Martha Hughes being the fourth. Last April she disappeared ugain, and when she returned with her, and Mr. Cannon was congratulated, Ten years ago, in the height of the anti-polygamy excite- / ment, she went to Europe for a few months. When she came back she brought a fine baby boy with her. Mr. Cannon blandly ac- cepted congratulations. Mrs. Cannon has three children in all—the oldest a girl of 14 years, Martha Hughes Cannon was the first wo- 'man elected to the Utah Legislature. In 1896 she ran against her own husband in the Sixth Utah State Senatorial District, and defeated him by 4000 votes. Cannon pere | stayed at home and was domestic with his three other wives during the campaign, while Martha Hughes, his wife No. 4, got out and hustled. She made 60 speeches. In the balloting for United States Sena- tor in.the Legislature Martha Hughes ap- peared in the list of candidates, .and had one vote, Martha Hughes practices medicine. She studied at Ann Arbor in her girlhood and later at a medical school tn Pennsylvania. She got her degree of M. D. without diffi- culty. She lives in a handsome tree-lined street in Salt Lake, and by the doorway of her cozy, red brick cottage there is a neat little sign which reads: nietncteaietintnel: -nateaiatia in, DR. MARTHA HUGHES. She is a clear-skinned, trim little wo- man, about 37 years old, whose brown hair has a pretty sprinkle af gray in it, and whose alert, brilliant, hazel eyes denote a quick, active intellect. Z She is an ardent woman suffragist. In this connection Elder William Cadman, an official of this church—the Reorganized Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints—sets forth plainly the teachings of the Iowa church, which are strictly anti- lygamous. He says: es a Elder William Cadman. mpression prevails that poly- gammy is a doctrine endorsed and taught by the book of Mormon. I have been an earn- est believer, a constant reader, and an en- thusiastic admirer of the book of Mormon for the last forty years, therefore, cer- tainly, I ought to know something about it. I will say, then, that @ grosser delusion than that never existed amongst men. The book of Mormon purports to give an ac- count of the coming of the forefathers of the Indian races to this Western ‘’hemis- phere. “The family of a man called Lehi, and some others, it states, were directed of the Almighty, in the lifetime of Jeremiah the prophet, and of Zedekiah, King of Ju- dah; shortly before the Babylonian captiv- A general ! in Ds > | ee ea sade 4 ity, and about 600 years before Christ, to emigrate from Jerusalem, unto this land, now called America. It also gives a com- plete account of their journey, which I will not enlarge upon. This man Lehi is rep- resented to be a prophet, and that he was directed by dreams, and such other means as God always used with His people, for the purpose of instructing them in the knowledge of His will. That is, I mean, so far as we have an account of God’s deal- ings with men in Scripture. Lehi had several sons, the oldest of whom was named Laman: he had one particu- larly righteous son (at the time of leaving » Palestine) named Nephi. They landed on the western coast of South America, and began preparations and exertions for life in the New World. Now the book of Mor- mon, informs us that the Almighty com- manded ‘this man Lehi positively against the practice of polygamy, by his people up- on this land, and declared to them that he would not suffer them on this land to do as the people had done in Palestine, in this particular, and that ‘terrible curses should follow them if they disregarded this com- mandment, whilst the greatest blessings and favors of heaven should be showered upon them on conditions of obedience. How is that for the book of (Mormon and polygamy? Glory be to God for such a book! I am a living witness of its truthe fulness and purity, and know these glor- ious facts by the divine spirit of God, and defy the devil and every agency under his control to prove the contrary. Here is a distinction between the book of Mormon and the Bible, altogether in favor of the book of Mormon, and no man on earth can deny that fact without making a donkey of himself, or, indeed, something worse than that. ‘Much time did not elapse after these par- ties arrived upon this land before Lehi died. Jealousy had been aroused among Lehi’s sons before his death on account of the Almighty using Nephi prominently in the direction of their affairs. The Almighty used Nephi on account of his faith and righteousness, and discarded Laman on account of the opposite characteristics, and Nephi began to assume the position of ruler among them, They resented this and claimed that Laman ought to be king on account of being Lehi’s oldest son. This condition of affairs continued until the sit- uation became very dangerous for (Nephi, when the Almighty directed him, and as many as held with him, to leave those parts and dwell by themselves in the wilderness. They thus went away privately some dis- tance northward, and established another settlement. These two settlements after- ward became two nations, one the first, called Lamanites, the other Nephites. The Lamanites became a very wicked people, disbelleving in therevelations given to Nephi, and maintaining that they were mere pretensions on his part for the pur- pose of deception, and of depriving Laman of his natural born rights as ruler. The Lamanites earnestly and vigorously sought to bring about the destruction of the Ne- phites, which eventually necessitated their further removal northward. ‘We are also informed that when the Al- mighty decided to make of these people two naticns, that He placed a curse of darkness of color upon the Lamanites, in order to make their persons repulsive to the Ne- phites, and to make a lasting distinction be- tween them; hence, the crigin of What we call the red mah. Now, we have two Na- tions upon this land; one a colored, cursed, degraded and barbarous nation; the other a white, righteous, blessed and progressive nation of people, enjoying the biessings of heaven in large degree, and in fulfillment of the prom!ses made to their father, Lehi, and in accordance with the blessings placed upon the head of Joseph and his posterity by his father, Jacob, in the land of Egypt a long time previcis. The steadiness an‘ industry of the Nephites, in connection with the blessings of heaven which were show- ered upon them, and the fruitfulnets and mineral wealth of the land on which the lived soon produced conditions of grea abundance: in fact, the book of Mormon informs ue thac they became immensely rich in al! the preductions of the earth, beth vegetable and mineral, enumerating them in large degree. It also informs us that in course of time wealth produced k’nds of foolishness and pride, and other fe gg Utah, Confess Their Child Is the Offspring of a Polygamous Marriage, oe tions were likely to produce such results Nephi, by this time, was dead, but before Ti died he had given charge to his broth Jacob, concerning ministerial affairs. ‘ was what is now czlled an anti-polygaml Some of his sayings on this subject I sha quote in his exact language; others for @& sake of brevity, I shail contract some but alwuys be careful to render ‘this meaning. Now it came to pass that the people Nephi, under the reign of the second king, began to grow hard in their hearts, indulge themselves somewhat in practices, such as like unto David of oc desiring many wives and concubines, . also, Solomon, his son. © He charges them with pride, with wearit stiff necks and high heads, because of t costliness of‘their apparel and of pers cuting and despising their brether becaw of their poverty. Afterwards, he says: = = And now I make an end of epeaking you concerning this pride.

The first river prospected was the Squir- rel, 80 miles above the mouth of the Ko- wak—prospected from head to mouth Then the Reed, Salmon, Labret and Hunt, all further up the Kowak, and nothing but very fine colors found. Next cume the Am- bler, nearly as large as the Kowak. This was thoroughly prospected, and parties went up the Shung-Nack, Cosmos, Cogo- gukuk, Pick-Kne-che-ark, Man-ne-juck and Par’ Rivers, with like results. .This win- ter ail the tributaries of these streams are being prospected, and more than 1000 holes are being sunk to bedrock, which in many places is very deep and difficult to reach.

Cogan also reported that in his trips to the Arctic after bene and blubber he had anchored in Kotzebue Sound and had found gold on his anchor and propeller blades. This letter was seized by some of the transportation companies, printed in cir- cular form and sent broadcast over the United States. Vessels were put in readi- ness and billed to leave on a certain date for “the richest gold fields in Alaska’’— “already discovered” —‘‘no mountain elimb- ing’’—‘‘one day's boating or two days’ tow- ing from Kotzebue Sound,” etc. As a result some 1500 men paid their $200 passage fee, bought two years’ supply of clothing, provisions, etc., and came: to Aijaska, only to find on arrival that every word contained in the circular was false— a lie made out of whole cloth. Even after leaving San Francisco the passengers on most vessels had to help out the crews in making sail, and the or seven feet of muck or gravel, you often strike a warm spring of water that imme- diately fills up the hole and runs over. After this freezes you chop out the ice, fire again to thaw the underlying ground, and after digging a few feet another spring breaks forth, with like results and treat- ment. Finally bedrock is reached, and in the majority of instances not a single color is found. About the first of November a report came from the Allashook, a tributary of the Koyoukuk, saying that gold in large quan- tities had been found there. Immediately all was excitement and more than one hundred of our party loaded up their sleds and started for the new ‘“‘E!l Dorado.”’ After 16 days of hard work, cutting trails and pulling sleds with a load of 250 pounds, with the thermometer from 45 to 60 below zero,these men arrived at Beaver City, 4 city of seven cabins, on the Allosh-ook, to find all these reports false. They had been started by two men, one a merchant, who had supplies to sell, and the other Recorder of Claims, who hoped to. cause a rush te record claims and to sell supplies. All these men have returned, and state that the pros- ports from the Kokachatnu, another tribu- tary of the Koyoukok, have taken. over Zane's Pass several men who are expected back next week. Of the 1500 men who came here probably one-half returned by the ves- sels that brought them. The remainder are here and at work, all discouraged and omy waiting for the ice to leave so that they can go back to Kotzebue sound and await the coming of some ship to take them back to civilization. Will that ship come? There is no garne; nothing raised in the soil. Fish are abundant, but without gvod, warm clothing and plenty of provisions, no one could ilve here. There has not been seen this winter or since July last a single bear, deer, moose, elk or even a rabbit. During the summer a few wild seese were kiiled, and this winter a few grouse.

If from sickness or death the installments are not paid, it becomes an insurance policy and the heirs get the land the party intended to pdy for. The stock is non-assessable.

Re- | F 100 Europeans who die on the coast & of Africa, 7 deaths are due to alco- holic drink. This startling state- ment is made by the Angelican Bishop of Equatorial Africa to the London Times. As a result the Chamber of Commerce of Lagas, France, has been considering ser- iously the advisability of instituting legal proceedings against the reverend writer. This proposed action is generally considered absurd. In his letter the bishop was careful to make a distinction between drink and drunkenness. The latter, he says, meals immediate suicide, but even the moderate use of liquor, he adds, means 4 hastened death to the consumer. The statement of the bishop is perfectly true, not only concerning the white races in Equatorial Africa, but could be applied with equal truth to the white races through- out Asia, especially the tropical portion. In view of the acquisition of the Philippines by the United States, and the maintenance there of a considerable force of troops to protect the life and property of American citizens who are certain to establish them- selves in the archipelago, this question of drink in the tropics is a matter of timely interest and of considerable importance. Aside from the craving: for liquor by which so many men are cursed, there are three other incentives that drive white men to drink in Equatorial Africa and the Orlent. One of these causes is lassitude, result- ing from the climatic conditions, which seems to invite the use of stimulants in order to revive mental and physical energy. Then there is the thirst which is the natural consequence of the heat, coupled with the difficulty of obtaining drinking water absolutely free from germs. Lastly, there are the monotony, the ab- sence of excitement and the terrible ennul and virtual solitude of fe in the Orient and in Equatorial Africa that drive men to | * ANCKICANS IN T ut 4 Experience goes to show that the last of these three incentives to the use of stimu- lants is the most powerful of all. It is ennui more than anything else that leads the white residents of tropical countries to destroy their health both of mind and of body by the excessive use of stimulants. Only these who have lived in countries such as those referred to can realize the awful feeling of ennui that constitutes the chief shadow to residents: in the Orient. Uniess one happens to be deeply interested in some abstruse study of the religious or scientific conditions of. the people of the ; place, social intercourse with natives quick- ly palls wpon one; and although there is'a certain amount of good fellowship among the whites in the Orieny, aque perhaps to the fact that they feel themgelves members of the same race, among. a people of abso- lutely different Drigin and civilization, the’ absence of variety,the inevitable restriction to the same small circle of acquaintances,’ the narrowness, and ‘lack of novelty in ihe local Interests, all conduce to that fright-, ful monotony which brings about the blues and an inordinate craving for excitement, even when the latter takes the form of a resort to the brandy bottle. No stronger illustration of this influence of ennui can be afforded than the expe- rience of the British admiralty, Drunken- ness is rare among the officers of men-of- war and of cruisers. But it is terribly com- mon on the part of the officers command- ing the gunboats patrolling the Red Sea, the Persian Gulf and other equally out of the way stations. The gunboats are usually in charge of a lieutenant and of two, oF Must Beware of Intoxicatin October. J.S more often, one midshipman.

The fact that the Orientals should seek another form of intoxication than that produced by alcohol proves that their advantage of the latter is less a question of moral prine ciple than a rule of health.

' ’ j bt ' - na ' } ere areiat aati er a mith if His ‘tay! A} HB Hittle town of Gaines, Pa., is thrilling with excitement which re- calls the wildest perjod of the petro- leum craze. Gaines has “struck oll.’’ From a mountain village of 400 inhabitants it has already started with rapid strides te attain the size and pace of a city. As if by magit oil derricks have sprung up on every hand during the last few weeks and the drilling and ‘‘shooting’’ of wells, which yleld from five to 70 barrels of oll datly, has been going on without a moment's pause, These are two interesting processes about which but little is known. It is hardly possible to give more than a general idea of the working of these great drills. Some yards back of the derrick is a stationary engine, with natural gas for fuel. In the first place, eight-inch casings of heavy iron are driven 4 feet, far into the bed of rock. Then from 800 to 400 feet-of iron tubing are sunk in the shaft. Into this shaft a steel plunger weighing hun- dreds of pounds hammers away at the rock and sand. To this great plunger or ham- mer is attached a bit six inches in diame- ter and weighing over 300 pounds. This long plunger is attached to a heavy rope of the very first quality, about two and one-quarter inches in diameter. Then this rope is in turn attached to a great wind- lass, which can be reeled out for hundreds of feet by means of brakes and controlled as easily as a fishing reel in the hands of an expert. When the proper amount of rope has been played out to allow the steel plunger with the tempered steel bit to pound away at the bottom of the hole the rope is attached to a heavy walking beam, the same as that used on a ferry boat. As this walking beam goes up and down it raises and drops the steel plunger with such force that it goes grinding its way through sand, gravel or solid rock. Every few feet drilled the steel plunger must be: pulled.out, the hole pumped out with a long bailing bucket, the heavy bit dressed or sharpened, and then, when let down again into the hole, it repeats the grinding process for a few more feet. ‘Shooting’ an oil well is a branch of the business that teems with excitement from the start. When the “shooter,” the man who explodes the nitro-glycerine, arrives, } he goes as calmly about his business as if he were a street sweeper, but he is carry- ing at Jeast his own life in his hand, and generally all those within a considerable radius. This man drives up to the little shanty where some thousand quarts of nitro-glycerine are stored, goes in and loads his wagon with this most terrific explosive and with it drives like Jehu $e “the. which is waiting to be shot. Arriving at the well, careful measure. ments are taken, and then this nitre is poured into four to seven feet In length. This loaded shell he lets down to the bottom of the — shaft and then others, the number depend. — ing upon the amount of explosives to 4 : used. The lowering of this deadly stuff fg the most dangerous part of the proceed~_ ing, for if it should explode (and it some. times does) before it is hundreds of ‘feet below the surface of the earth and pre vious to the proper time, the dérrick will be blown into toothpicks, and In alJ Probe ° long tubes or shells from ability many. persons killed. One hs sure, the .‘‘shooter’’ can have no cheney, for his life. . On the top of the last: shell are placia’. some gun caps, and then all is ready for the explosion. The instrument used for ex- ploding the caps is a triangular kind of flying wedge made of iron and weigh about 20 pounds. This instrument is called a “go-devil,” and it is called so with excel- lent reason. This “go-devfl” is dropped In the top of the shaft, and as soon as it is started on its mission, the dropper imme aay Rid! é Bh KY ae NW Dyk Oks RR At a rita Were Ni ie Tne te Rae -tine by ar “rete The novel coach construction which i is to reduce wind pressure and increase speed. | - ee canna ae —o tt enn Frederick U.

She paid $1,000,000 for the choicest gems of Queen Isabella and also purchased the most beautiful ornaments owned by the ex-Empress Eugenie. Her famous necklace of blue tint diamonds, to which she has added from year to year, is now sa‘d to be worth $274,000. A star-shaped diamond pcn- dant, on which the stones are equally weli matched, is valued at $40,000. Mrs. Bradley Martin owns the finest tiara ever worn in this country. It is composed of 36 jeweled points and if converted into cash would buy a few stone fronts, On gala nights at the opera in New York City it is estimated that the jewels in the boxes alone are worih $19,000,000.

Whe engine is fitted with a prow like the Cutwater-of a ship. There are.no spaces between the cars; the wheels are inclosed almost down to the level of the track. There are no projections from any part of the train. The windows are set flush with the s‘des of the cars and cannot be opened. This does not mean that the train is unventilated.. On the contrary, the new trains will be more perfectly ventilated than by the open win- dow method. The New York Central and the Pennsyl- vania Railroads are now making arrange- ments to give the Adams system a ‘thor- ough test. Trains are now being built on the Adams plan and will be used when com- pleted. Mr. Adams made possible the feat of Bi- cyclist Murphy in riding one mile behinda train in less than © seconds. His idea ofa properly constructed railroad train he gives in these words: By Frederick U. Adams, A train properly constructed should have its lines continuous from the engineer's cab straight back to the rear of the last car. The windows should be flush with the ex- teriors of the cars. The trucks should be enclosed; the front end of the locomotive should be pointed; the rear end of the last car should be tapered, and from front to rear of the train there should be no ob- struction. The surfaces of the cars and of the locomotive should be as mooth as in- genuity could make them. The air for ventilation should be taken from the front end of the train; preferably in through the tender, at which point the air is free from smoke and gas, as well as from the dust of the train. Such a train vould be swift, almost noiseless, and per- fectly ventilated. The average speed of pasenger trains at the present iime is about 32 miles an hour, his is known as the economic mean of speed. When a faster sped is attained the air pressure is so great that the consump- tion of uel becomes an item of overwhelm- ing importance. As a result all so-called fast. train are run at a loss. The greatest practical benefit which would comeswith scientific train construc. tion would be the raising of the average sped of all trains from 32 to 60 or 70 miles per hour. This could be done without in- creased expense. A passenger train of gix o> eight cars could be hauled on a fairly straight and level track at a continued speed of from 100 to 120 miles an hour. before a great while this comely young matron will far outshine all other Amer- ican women in the matter of diamonds.

CONDUCT MISSIONS AND TEACH IN SUNDAY SCHOOLS. Men Who Are Daily Engrossed in Affairs of the Business World Involving. Millions of Dollars Spend the Sabbath Day in the Sunday School Room, Where the Children of Wealth Are Gathered or Visit Missions Where the Offspring of Poverty Are Taught the Gospel of Christ. WENTY of the richest men in St Louis are either Sunday School superintendents or teachers or mis- gion workers; some are or have been all three. Some of them are both teachers and mission workers and give time and money to these places, where religious instruc- tion is furnished the poor or the wayfar- ing. Through this work, followed closely, year after year, they have become known to every grade of society—from the children of luxury to the toilers and toddlers of the tenements. Some of these men are millionaires; all of them are more than ordinarily wealthy. Their combined riches would build a hun- éred churches. These names of these men are among the most prominent in St. Louis. Look at this list: Richard M. Scruggs, of Scruggs, Vander- woort & Barney, dry goods. Thomas McPheeters, president of OfcPheeters Warehouse Co. Daniel R. Wolfe, of Wolfe & Good, manu- facturers’ agents. ‘William H. Markham, insurance. Stephen A. Bemis, president of the Be- mis Bag Co. J. H. Allen of Allen & West, cotton brok- ers. Thomas H. West, of Allen & West, cotton brokers. Wiliam H. Senter, cotton broker. Samuel M. Kennard of the J. Kennard & Sone Carpet Co. George W, Brown of the Brown Shoe the Murray Carleton, president of the Wear & Boogher Dry Goods Co. John W. Kauffman, millionaire broker. F. P. Hays, broker. A. H. Frederick, president of the St. Louis Board of Assessors. Charles C. Nicholls of the Nicholls-Ritter Realty & Financial Co. Edward P. V. Ritter of the Nicholls-Rit- ter Realty & Financial Co. F. M, Call, publisher. EK. I. Pope, commission merchant. Ex-Congressman Frederick G. Niedring- haus of the Niedringhaus Stamping Co. Samuel Cupples of the Cupples Wooden- ware Co. Breckinridge Jones, vice-president of the Mississippi Valley Trust Co. Mr. Scruggs, whose fame as a Sunday School worker is international, attends the Cook Avenue Methodist Episcopal Church every Sunday morning. He is superinten- dent of the Sunday School, and has acted in that capacity for years. For a long time he also had charge of the morning Sunday School, but the growth of the church mado it necessary for him to give up the super- intendency of one branch and he remained the head of the afternoon school. Long be- fore he was made superintendent he was a teacher. But this ts only a part of the extensive work Mr. Scruggs does along this tine Hie is vice-president of the Internationa] Sunday Schoo] Association, and for years was a director of the State and City Sun- day School Associations. He is president of the St. Louls Provi- dent Association, a charity with the work- ings of which the whole country is famil- far. Another institution owes its existence to Mr. Scruggs. This is the International Evangel, the official Sunday School paper of the world, published in St. Louis. He pays the bills and whatever profit there is from the paper is devoted to the promotion of Sunday School work. Thus the Interna- tional Evangel is really a gift from Mr. Scruggs to the Sunday Schools of the world. When a hotel guest inquires at which church one of the best Sunday-schoo! may be found the clerk, if he is well informed, replies: “Grand Avenue Presbyterian.”’ There Mr. McPheeeers has been in charge of the Young People's Bible Class for a dozen years, and by many he is considered the most competent teacher in town. His class varies from © to 75 members. As im his business dealings during the week his talk is earnest, direct and terse. He is a foreeful speaker on religious sub- jects and he has made numerous addresses in public. Mr. McPheeters jis probably the leading ¥Y. M. <. A. man in the West. He has been president of two associations—the St. fouls and the Missouri—and a committee- man of each. He is particularly interested in the International phase of the organiza- tion’s work. The Bethel Mission owes more to Dante! R. Wolfe than the public may ever know. This institution, at 30 North Commercial! street, near the levee, was founded especial- ly to supply the spiritual needs of river men and others of that class. The mis- gion has been Mr. Wolfe's pride and care for 15 or } years, and he has been its mainstay throughout that time. ' For 10 years he was president of the Mis- gouri State Sunday School Association, and t prosperous condition is due sted aie ee ae - ; : ‘es es = Pi Very By eas (BRECKENRIDGE: JONES Mr. Wolfe was formerly a member of the advisory board of the Y. M. C. A., and is now chairman of its teachers’ meeting committee. Another mission worker is William H. Markham. For years he was: superinten- dent of the old Soulard Market Sunday School, and since its change to the Men- ard Street Mission he.has. continued in that capacity. This mission is one of the largest in the city and is located in a sec- tion inhabited largely by lowly foreigners. Although Mr. Markham is interested in Y. M. C. A. work it is the mission that claims his time, attention and money. Mr. Bemis founded the Broadway Bap- tist Mission at 512 South Broadway. He erected the bullding and hired trained mis- sion workers to handle the work. But he did not leave it to them alone. He visits the place frequently and finds great satis- faction in the work being done. Almost every cent required to conduct the mis- sion is furnished by Mr. Bemis. Few names are better known in the busi- ness world than those of J. H. Allen and Thomas H. West. Both men are immensely wealthy, both live in the most aristocratic style and both are Sunday School teachers. Mr, Allen has a class in the Sunday School of the Mt. Cabanne Christian Church— both morning and afternoon—and Mr. West one in that of the Second Baptist. Mr. Al- len makes it a point to attend regularly the weekly meeting of teachers. The Sunday School of the Third Presby- terian Church, one of the largest in the city, is presided over by William E. Senter, who has been its superintendent for 10 or 12 years. Few St. Loutsans would connect the name of Samuel M. Kennard, that .busy man of affairs, with the Sabbath quiet of a Sunday School, yet he is superintendent of that branch of St. John’s Methodist Epis- copal Church South, and has been for seven or eight years. Besides this he is greatly interested in the miss‘tonary work HE accompanying illustrations show 13 a device recently adopted by the St. Louls Fire Department. The system entirely obviates the pipe connection that comes on the rung of the ladder, saving not only weight, but usually a leakage on the men and down the ladder, a great annoy- ance, especially in cold weather. The frame or holder, with its safety hook sef-palances the stream, leaving the man. free when working to come down the ladder in case of danger. The front hook is always ready 40 hook on the ladder, as the fireman as- CHWTS ae of the church, both domestic. and foreign. One of the originators of the great May Festival of the Sunday Schools of St. Louis was George W. Brown, who is a teacher in the Sunday School of the Union Methodist Episcopal Church. Besides this Mr. Brown is vice-president of the Y. M. C. A. and of the St. Louis Sunday School Union. Much of his money, as well as time, is devoted to religious work. One of the busiest of men in religious matters {s Murray Carleton. For a long time he was active in the work of the Spruce Street Mission, the all night house, and he and V. O. Saunders were its principal supporters. Mr. Carle- ton is superintendent of the school of Cen- tenary Methodist Episcopal Church, and on Sundays he may always be found conduct- ing his school, visiting the mission or teach- ing a class. Who that has seen Forest Park has not seen the magnificent residence of John W. Kauffman on King’s highway, at the Lin- dell boulevard entrance to the park? Who has not heard of the fame of “Johnnie” Kauffman when there were big doings on ‘Change?

Many strange Springfield has attracted attention stories were told by speakers concerning the means of their conversion to the Spirit- ualistic faith and many strange experiences were related in connection with the work- ings of their creed. The attendance at this meeting was the largest ever known in Missouri. The Spiritualists’ three chief camp meet- ings this year will be held at Onset Bay, Mass.; Idly Dale, N. Y., and Camp Ches- terfield, just east of Anderson, Ind. In all there will be 2% State and 80 interstate and district camps, and the luminaries of Spiritualism, including Mrs. ‘Mary Ellen ‘Lease, the latest and most noted convert it has claimed in many years, will only appear at the three points named and in the mational convention, which convenes in Chicago Oct. 9 The camp season opened last week with the Illinois State meeting. - It will close pretty generally on Aug. 28, when the three large camps close. The Onset Bay and the Lily Dale camps open this week. Camp Ches- terfield will open July 20 and continue to the date indicated. Aside from Spiritualists, few in the West realize the extent of the Indiana camp. Indiana people generally are familiar with Acton, Bethany and the camps of ortho- dox denominations in the State. They know comparatively little, however, of Camp Chesterfield. The scopé of Acton and Bethany is local; that of the Spirit- ualists’ camp is national, and the camp is better known outside of Indiana than it is by the people of the State. It is not only a prettier wetreat than any of the other Indiana camps, but it also enjoys the dis- tinction of being the prettiest Spiritual- ist camp in the nation. Its development in the last few years has been marvelous, Its geographical location makes it the log- ical national camp of Spiritualists. “Camp Chesterfield’’ is really a delight- ful little city, stowed away among the bluffs that line White River east of Ander- son. Across the cascades—and a little fur- ther down stream—lie the Indiana mounds, which have been credited by sightseers as being surrounded with the prettiest landscape views in Eastern Indiana, while the mounds themselves are regarded by the Smithsonian Institution archaeolo- gists as the most remarkable and interest- ing in the Mississippi Valley. The river is lined with forests from the mounds down past the Spiritualists’ camp. No more de- lightful place could be found-in all the State for the building of a camp city. The ‘city’ is used advisedly. : “Camp Chesterfield,” during the six weeks out of every 52 that it is open, ts a complete city In every respect, even down to a free mail delivery. It has its hotel, its daily newepaper, water, lighting and heating systems, and down the long camp avenue, are grouped establishments which range from a grocery to @ photograph gal- lery. Some of the cottages could well be classed as residences. They have broad verandas, and are elaborately furnished, even to the extent of pianos. In the center of the camp are the audi- toriums, and off to one side are the seance houses—queer 12x12 box structures, which do not possess a window. ‘The only open- ing is the door. It is padded on the inside, and when closed the darkness is oppress- ive. Along each avenue run natural gas mains, with ‘T’’ connections every few feet. It is the work of only a few min- utes for the campers to connect any stove or heating or lighting appliance, and tap the storehouse of the greatest fuel the world has ever known. The little city !s better lighted than most large towns. Oe i Flambeaus and street lamps are every few feet. The next year, no doubt, will bring electric lights and a complete system of water works, extending over the # acres. The daily paper published on the grounds during the camp meeting is well edited, Indianapolis, Chicago, St. Louis, Cincin- nati papers are delivered on the grounds. The social features of Camp Chesterfield are quite as complete as are its features of convenience. Band concerts, dances and card and hammock parties have full sway. There are small dances every night or 80, but on Thursday evenings, after the serv- ices have closed, the big auditoriums are cleared of the chairs, French chalk is thrown over the floor, the puipit is con- verted into an orchestra stand, musicians take the places of the lecturers, the fiddle and the piano and other instruments are attuned to waltz, polka, schottische and quadrilie time, the prompter yells “Four hands ‘round and then swing your lady,” and the dance is on, | The great interest of the Indiana meet- ‘ing this year will center around the ap- pearance of Mrs. Mary Ellen Lease, the “Kansas Cyclone” of political fame, who has become a pronounced convert. She has not only decided to go on the Spiritualist lecture platform, but she has announced she will probably devote all of her time to the work, even to the exclusion of her political aspirations. She will not only be the great center of attraction at the three camps where she wil appear, but she will also be the chief drawing card at the na- tional convention in Chicago, and it is said by many that she will be elected to the national presidency. Her debut at the Indiana camp is, therefore, of national in- erest, and the attendance during her week vil be heavy from all parts of the country. She will arrive at the camp on Saturday, Aug. 5, and will make her first appear- ance at 2 o'clock the next afternoon. She will also be beard at 2:3 Tuesday after- ENTRANCE To US won - Additional interest may be given to thé event, if the National Anti-Spiritualists’ Association succeeds in getting Mrs. Helem Gougar—a bitter anti-Spiritualist—to ap- pear at this point during that week and attack everything that Mrs. ‘Lease says. Greater interest will center in the campe- meetings this year than at any time In the past. They will be the preliminary battle- grounds for a great clash at the national convention. Thus far, though modem Spiritualist dates from the early "#s, the great national body, which now reaches over every State and has 276,000 active workers and an estimated 11,000,000 believe — ers, has operated without a creed or & declaration of belief. More than this, members have differed on every possible — point that might arise, except the one be- - lief in communication after death. ‘ have built their religion on the Bible, | have been bitter in denouncing tt, i have accepted the New and denounced ps: Old Testament, and vice versa. They have — differed on a code of morality, and on — even essential facts of Spiritualism.

eA Boston Physician Says that in the Gait Is Evidenced a the Physical Condition of the Walker. ape =F & oO PT. Poe og . . € 7 ge ~~ ore tery TRE ENR PEA EP are 8 - , that it is as necessary to observe a patient’s @ait as it is.to feel his pulse or take his temperature. Briefly, Dr. Bradford says that a person in good health walks with his feet nearly etraight. As he leaves health behind him he begins to turn out his toes and to bend at the knees. .Dr. Bradford says that the discovered that a sick man can al- ‘est mnd easiest gait is that in which the Pedestrian’s toes point straight to thé front. —@5 article which he has written for the Medical .Record..Dr. Bradford makes an exhaustive study of the human gait. It seems that the erect gait is an acquired?” It is found at its is the result, and not a natural] walk. best only in cities and the wearing of shoes. R.. E. H. BRADFORD of Boston has Dr.* Bradford Says, of smooth pavements and, : Barefooted people walk in an entirely dif- ferent way to those who go shod. A shoe- ways be told by his walk. He thinks wearing individual brings his heel down first, and pulls himself along with the mus- cles of the hip, a'ded by a push from the rear foot. A barefooted person,.on the con- trary, leans forward as he walks, and uses the weight of the falling bedy as a means of propulsion, In this style of walking the body is inclined forward and .would fall were it not checked by the forward leg, thrust out to prevent it. On soft ground barefooted and mocca- sined people are accustomed to pull them- selves along by the.pressure of the toes. The heel 1s bardly used at all, and, as a result,. the -feet of*such’ people show a ‘muscular development altogether lacking in the soles of..their shoe-wearing breth- ren. oes eno we Another peculiarity detected by Dr. Brad- ford,is.that barefooted people do not swing their feet sidéways in walking as shoe- wearing people do. The tracks of a white man in the snow are in entirely different position from those made by an Indian in moccasins. The shoe-wearer’s tracks will show footprints regularly arranged to the right and left of a straight line. Those made by a man barefooted or in mocca- sins will almost form one line. In strong and vigorous walking, Dr. Bradford says, the feet are brought forward in a straight direction and without any outward swing. One of the strongest points in Dr, Brad- ford’s article is the reproduction of a pho- tograph showing a crowd of Spanish pris- oners embarking at Santiago. The picture is an instantaneous one, and it happens that the camera caught one of our soldiers as well. Dr. Bradford points out the gait of the Spaniards as illustrating the walk of utterly exhausted men, and contrasts it with the leisure gait of strength, as exem- plified by the American soldier. DANGER IN SIT CHOOLS for physical culture are now S claiming thal we as a nation do not know how to sit correctly. Amer- fcans, they say, pay less attention .to the hygiene of attitude in sitting than do other nations, and the consequence js that we are degenerating into a nation of dyspeptics. In France and Germany schoo! children @et a regular course of instruction as to the correct attitude to be adopted in sit- ting; and in ,those countries stomach troubles are far less prevalent than in countries where no precautions are taken to teach children to sit without relaxing themselves. A relaxed position in sitting, it is said, Causés the stomach to be crowded out of position. After a while the misplacement becomes chronic. When the stomach is prolapsed the food cannot readily find its Way out-of -it, and, being retained there longer than it should be, undergoes fer- mentation, and putrefaction processes set’ up whereby the system is not only robbed of the nutrient elements necessary for the proper nourishment of the blood and re- pair of tissues, but, ‘through the conversion of the food into ptomaines and other pois- onous substances, the whole body is con- taminated. .On these grounds physicians who teach physical culture asserts that it. is not the ice “water that we drink, nor the soda water, nor the amount of smoking that men folk indulge that causes us to be a ‘nation of dyspeptics, but the bad postures that wé adopt when sitting. “A correct attitude in sitting requires proper height and width of,seat, a desk or‘table of the proper height when desk work is required, and a proportionate amount of care upon the part-ef the pupil to sit upon his seat ina proper position. The height of the ehair you sit in while writing and that of the desk you write at are matters of the greatest importance. The seat of the chair CRETI A Strange Affliction to Which “Whole Communities Are ~Subject and Which Is Sometimes Ascribed to Drinking Snow Water. =™ ETINISM is a form of idiocy caused by the lack of part of the thyroid gland. It is a form of goitre. Many children have it. The moment the thyroid secretion stops forming the development of the, child stops short, If, for instance, the ehild had advanced to the age of 7 and ‘then faile@? of its thyroid, it would go through life as a 7-year-old child as far as brain development is concerned. .There is an opposite condition brought @bout when too much thyroid secretion is deposited. We know It then as exophthal- mic goitre. A person with this malady is the opposite of the idiot—that is, intensely @ctive and alert, supersensitive in all things, the antithesis of dullness, as it were, Exophthalmic goitre can be cured by removing part of the thyroid gland from the throat: cretinism can be cured, or father held in check, by administering thyroid extract to the idiot. If a child is taken young and properly NISM. doctored with thyroid extract it will gd on developing just like any normal child. But if the administering of the extract should be stopped suddenly the youngster would relapse into its former idiotic state, or, at any rate, stop off where it was. Cretinism is endemic in many mountain districts, and is said to occur most fre- quentiy in magnesium limestone forma- tions. It is unknown in England, but very common in France. It is rare in Prussia; middle Europe has a lot of it in the moun. ‘tain districts. It is also.found in the Himalayas and in the Andes. But it occurs in flat countries, @s, for instance, on the island of Nieder- Werth, below Coblentz, where a large pro —_—_—--—- —-— portion of the inhabitants are cretins. To be precise, out of a population of 750, 131 are cretins., It has been suggested that the malady in Europe might be due to the constant use of snow water. Snow seems to be cur‘ously productive of trouble when swallowed. Epidemic goitre attacked the members of the crew of Capt. Cook while on their fa- mous voyage, because they drank water from a melted iceberg, and it is now caus- ing much trouble for men in the Klondike, Cretins seem to be caused by geologic or climatic conditions, for it has been known to disappear from a family after the re- moval of the family from a certain dis- trict. Other families theretofore healthy had cretin children after they moved into that district. SERUM FOR SNAKE BITES. HE Venezuelan Herald says: In an in- tr teresting interview Prof. Phisalix of Paris speaks as foliows on his dis- covery that snake dite is curable by serum of mushrooms: “I have made many experiments with the hew mushroom serum, all of which have been successful...Probably the reason why I have followed up these experiments’ so closely is because I fully realize the wide importance of popular knowledge of the curing of snake bites, particularly in those countries where snakes are numerous. It is an extension of the principle similia simill- bus curantur or of like curing like. For counteracting the effects of snake bites many cures have been prescribed, varying from that of drinking enormous quantities of whisky to the application of my mush- room vaccine. Bear in mind that some snake bites act more rapidly than others and consequently the application of the remedy should be made promptly. It hardly necessary to state that time is gained by applying the remedy directly to the ner- vous systern. “The bite of a viper does not act rapidiy for a viper is one of the weakest of snakes. “Snake poison produces a species of in- toxication.

He had been rendered incapabie of feeling pain by a new method, whith, while jeaving the patient's mind perfectly clear, entirely abolishes the sen- sation of pain, This was accomplished by injecting a very small amount of solution of cocaine into the sac surrounding tho spinal cord. Dr. Leonard J, Corning of New York, the authority on nervous diseases, is the in- ventor of this daring method of producing to the leading surgeons of this country and insensibility. to pain. This fact is known is proved by Dr. Corning’s book on the subject, American surgeons, therefore, are somewhat ineensed to find that the Ger- man medical papers are attributing the dis- covery to Dr. Quincke of Vienna ‘and its application to Dr. Bier of Kiel. They say that nearly every discovery made by American surgeons lately has been impu- dently laid claim to by some foreign doc- tor. | , Hitherto the only way of painlessly per- farming such .a sefious operation as the removal of a leg haa been to produce to- tal insensibility of the patient by the use of chloroform or ether. This procedure is sometimes very dangerous, for it is unsafe to give chloroform to a person with a weak heart, while ether is equally risky in affections of the kidneys, Ever since the discovery of chloroform, doctors and sur- Zeons have sought for some other method of producing insensibility to pain while yet leaving the patient in possession of his other faculties. Hypnotism has been tried, but this has the objection that the patient does not know what is going on. Dr. Corning’s discovery was made dur- ing the course of his researches into the anesthetic qualities of cocaine. He observed that the injection of a solution.of cocaine along the track of a nerve deadened the sensation, and was of great value as a method of treatment in some painful ner- vous diseases. The spinal cord is practical- ly a very large nerve from which other nerves branch, and he argued that if the anesthetic could be brought into contact with the spinal cord it ought to produce in- sensibility to pain. of the atlas—the bone on whieh the After most exhaustive experimentation, Mr. Corning decided that this same treat- ment could, be successfully and safely ap- plied to man. It had, up to that time, been considered as almost a surgical axiom that interference with the spinal cord was in the highest degree dangerous, so that it can be ecen that it required considerable courage to undertake such an operation. The patient who was selected for the first test of this form of anesthesia was aware that he was a pioneer, but he had faith in Dr. Corning. After the usual sufgical preparation a fine needle was passed through the skin in the small of his back thence between two of the spinal bones, and so into the sac surrounding the spinal cord. The patient was perfectly aware of what was going on, but he told Dr. Corn- ing that he felt nothing after the first prick of the needle, A weak solution of cocaine was then injected through the needle. In a few minutes the patient said that his legs felt dead. Test with an électric battery showed a decrease in sensibility to pain, which steadily progressed until, at the end of 10 minutes, the man could feel no pain whatever. Curiously enough, how- ever, he was still able to know when any- thing touched him, and could tell whether a substance applied to his leg was hot or cold, but he could feel no pain. When a needle was placed against his leg he could feel the touch, but when it was thrust into his flesh he was only conscious of the sense of pressure used in pushing it. Similarly he knew that a red hot wire was hot, but was unconscious of the pain of a burn. Other experiments were made and it was found that no pain could be felt below the place at which the -injection had been made. The patient’s mental faculties were unimpaired, and, aside from a slight tem- porary numbness in the feet, he experi- enced no discomfort or ill effects from the operation. The reason for the success of this ex- traordinary, method of producing insensi- bility to pain is interesting. The spinal cord is inclosed in the spine. It begins in man, at the base of the skull and ends in the small of the back. It is usually 18 inches long and weighs about an ounce and a half. It does not nearly fill the canal in which it is contained. Anatomically de- scribed, it extends from the upper border turns—to the bottom of the first vertebra. There it ends in a slender of gray substance which is extended to the end of the epine. The use of the spinal cord is to transmit messages from the brain to the muscieg and vice versa. It might be compared to a “trunk line” in a telephone system, the brain being the main office and the muscles being the subseribers. Tnen by the spinal — cord there is practically no other nervous — communication between the brain and the muscles; hence through it must come all the nerve impulses which pass to or from the brain. In other words, every impulse that is felt and every motion that is willed—per- ~ ception and voliticn being attributes of the {| brain—must be conducted through the spl. — nal cord to ths brain and vice versa. Issuing from the cord along its course are $1 pairs of nerves communicating with the various parts of the body. The spinal cord is surrounded and supplied by @ great many veins, but the circulation in them fs very sluggish. ‘This is believed to be the _Teason why the action of the cocaine is only exhibited in a downward direction. Three membranes envelop the spinal cord and between two of them isa space filled - with a liquid which doctors call the “‘ceres bro-spinal fluid.” It is Inte the sac contain- ing this fluid that the solution of cocaine is injected with hypodermic necdle. It can therefore be seeti from the fore going that in injecting’a powerful anaes- thetic into the space surrowhding the epinal column the operator praétically—to continue | the telephone simile—spoils the conductiv- ity of the wire between the subscribers and the main office. However anxious the neryes of the skin may be to tell the brain that some one is jabbing them with knives and things, they ce.mot get @ message to that effect over the wire. The brain, not being acquainted with what is going on, is utterly untroubled thereat, and, as the brain is the seat of sengation, the possessor of it feels no pain while the surgeons are operating. - . ‘ This is why, In the German Hospital, a - patient was able to read the morning paper while his leg was being taken off. Sur- geons say that the new method of enes- thesia can be used for all kinds of opera- tions except those upon the head ftself. WHAT ANCIENT ROF. RICHARD J. GOTTHEIL of Columbia University has resurrected some of the prescriptions written by Galen, the famous Greek physician of the second century. They arein a Syriac trans- lation and have been published by the American Oriental Society, together with their translations in English. Medical men of the present day may be interested in comparing these, some of the oldest pre- scriptions ever brought to light, with the formulas used by doctors of the present generation. Here are Galen’s remedies’ PHYSICIANS USE For Ears Which Sing—Boll olive oil and goat’s gall, and throw this on them while it is still hot. Or heat oil of bitter almonds and grease of a black chicken, and sprinkle over them. Or cook gall nuts in vinegar and old wine, and put it on them. Or heat garlic in olive oil, and put it on them. Or sprinkle them with swine’s gall. Or let the patient eat onions copiously. This will help him. For Eye Troubles—Mix together fennel water, thirty drahms, pnd hydromel, ten drahms.

That speed should have landed him at the North Pole, his objective point, in two days. But Andree has not been heard of in two years. A startling theory has been advanced by Newton Harrison, editor of the Electrical Age, to account for Andree’s disappear- ance—that is, that he was actually swol- lowed up by the earth. There is much scientific evidence to prove 5 OT RGR ST 5 29 aa ate ger “ea eh et: pee yl r me, A ee" ws © ss gg! bean oa te >» vs T- >, ~™ 4 4 *' > . . ' Be NS is he ge 4 ty ots > .

Andree, with his balloon, may have been swept_.into the opening or burned to death by a breath from the heated interior of the globe. The theory suggested by Mr. Harrison is briefly that the earth is a great molten body covered by the thin crust of earth on which we live. This interior heat is |the result of some sort of combustion, a burn- ing up of various gases and molten solids. It is inconceivable that this combustion can go on unless it is fed by oxygen, and it seems equally clear that this vast supply of oxygen must come from outside space. The line of reasoning is clear enough to th-s when the question naturally arises, point. his supply reach the interior of how does t the earth? The various volcanoes of the world are as so many pin points as compared with the entire surface of the earth, and the enor- mous fire. which has been burning for thou- sands of centuries, It is inconceivable that such a fire could be maintained with such diminuttve drafts and flues. All this points inevitably to the conclusion that there must | be somewhere an enormous vent or opening to the center of the world. ) If there were-such an opening | naturally be at the poles, where there is so | much less motion than on the revolv-ng sUr- | faces of the globe. The earth, moreover, io cooling from a liquid to a molten and finally |a solid body, would also be more likely to | have such an opening at these points than at any other. A perfectly clear line of reasoning is thus established to expiain such a formation. The theory of this earth chimney is not entirely new to science. It was first ad- vanced by a scientist named Sims about seventy-five years ago. This theordfical /opening has ever since gone by the fame | of Sims’ hole. A number of scientists have | since written upon the possibility of its ex- qstence, and an immense Amount of evi- dence has been collected. Mr. Harrison has arranged this in a very attractive and convinc:ng manner. He meets all objections to the theory In discussing it with an ar- say of sclentific facts and quotations hes , ‘; ey ae oe Hes | cg 5 a. : it would aM ath +—° o,* IPUF, © Ae . é . . nh AN a AD ’ a — "SS eT Me Oe "9 io ay Ay * ’ ‘! ual oY x oy pg BE f jose >) r world famous scientific men which goes far to silence criticism. He argues, for example, that it is entirely conceivable that a hole many miles in diameter could be in operation without its making a disturbance of any kind to the rest of the world. The moon, for example, which is a much smaller body than the earth, has a number of large craters which would serve for a flue or chimney for such a purpose. The arctic floor, as far as it is known, shows many signs of great vol- canic disturbances in the past ages of the world and the ‘great ice fields probably hide much more évidence of this kind from our view, The crust.of the earth, as all the world knows, is a mere shell as compared with its diameter. The hard surface, tn other words, is but 50 miles in depth, or about 1-160 part of the diameter. An orange has a thicker skin than the planet upon which we live, comparatively. It would be an easy matter, therefore, for this great mass of molten earth, in its effort to get a breath as it were, of oxygen, to burst a hole through this delicate shell of hard- ened earth. The earth in rotating has & centrifugal motion which would tend to male the crust at the poles thinner and weaker than any- where else. It may dé seen, therefore, that the earth in. cooling May have kept this vent constantly open, and if af any time it become closed up it' Weuld be posa:ble for the great interior force to open another vent at the same piac* It will occur to ever} -m@ that since the world contains such at immense body of molten matter protected Dy #9 thip a sheet, it is curious that it does. ~ at times break through, devastating enormets sections of the earth’s surface. The theory of the ex- polir a chimneys “_—_ - wil WAS ANDREE SWALLOWED BY SIMS’ HOLE? | makes the present stable condition of the earth seem the more conceivable. . Instead of the earth being capped. with eternal fields of ice it seems probable, therefore, that they are the immense safety valves of the earth. | “ What then is the condition of the poles of the earth? Even if it be proved that these world chimneys exist, the effect on the polar regions still remeins a mystery. Mr. Harrison believes that this escaping heat may have served to tranform the polar section for a considerable area into . land capable of sustaining some form of vegetation and even of supporting animal r EGG _—_ Mis.’ oeed > “t “4 life. This section, if it exists, woul 08 circular in form and surrounded by a sea. formed from the water from melted icé- . bergs. The open polar sea, of which there has been so much speculation, can be read- ily aceounted for on this theory. The opening into the earth itself may, besides, be surrounded with geysers and similar formations. The theory which Sims urged was that the opening was a veritable funnel through which poured enormous volumes of G&Y=- gen, forming a huge vortex which swept everything in its path inward to the very depths of the earth. If this theory »¥@ true a vast funnel of air several miles in extent is constantly sweeping down, sucked in by the internal fires of the earth, which no human force could contend with. Mr. Harrison points out that Andres had made several plans for sending word a8 soon as possible to the outside world, All the explorers who have gone @efore have elther made their Way out or got some word to civilization in less time than has elapsed since Andree disappeared, The friends of this explorer therefore argue that he must have met with some very sudden fate to be silenced so quickly and completely as he has.

SUNDAY MCRNING—ST. LOUIS POST-DISPATCH—JULY 23, 1899 FATHER PHELAN — — — -_@#¢¢ ———— Contests In Which the Founder and Conduc- tor of the Western Watchman Has Won Many Victories. BURLY man, square shouldered, a square head, covered by waving iron set upon a short neck, a heavy jaw, prominent, siightly turned up nose, small, but very bright gray eyes that seem to laugh even when the mouth is straicht and sober, for the rest a solemn clerical suit of biack—this is the exterior of Father David 8. Phelan, priest editor and authority on canon law. Pucnacity is written all over his face and figure. In truth, Father Phelan has been somewhat of a fighter in his day, and etill is when the occasion arises—that is the Irish in him. But the Irish blood gives him another quality which supplements his fighting propensities—the quality of good nature. He is one to give and take hard blows and laugh in his antagonist’s face. Hs isa cheerful, muscular Christian. Naturally because of his position as editor of a Catholic paper, most of his Dattles have been with the foes of Cathol- icism, but he has upon occasion ‘slipped out of the religious field to take a fall eut of a politician, a secular editor or a Private citizen who were doing or saying things that the priestly editor condemned. But his hardest blows have fallen upon members of his own church, from arch- bishops down to plain priests. He has not hesitated to defy one archbishop and to tell another he was not honest. Yet through it all he has discharged his solemn duty as rector of Mount Carmel Parish at Baden, North St. Loults. Father Phelan founded the Western Watchman 33 years ago. His prime object fin starting it was to defend the Sisters of Loretto, who he thought were being per- secuted by the people af Edina, Mo., where he had been rector of the church, unt!l the year before. Since that time, he has never failed to contribute to it every week. He had been ordained a priest tn 1863, two years before, and at the Church of the Immaculate Conception preached his first sermon. This church then stood on the site of the present office of the Watchman on the south side of Chestnut street be- tween Seventh and Eighth streets, and the editor’s sanctum is directly over the spot where stood the sanctuary of the church which was the scene of his first appearance as a preacher of the Gospel. The exterior of the priest-editor is a good index to h's cha acter. His quicK movem¢‘ats denote his nervous energy. The crow’'s feet wrinkles at the corners of his eyes are the traces left by 58 years of good humor and laughter. The firm protruding jaw and chin tell why he has been en- gaged in $80 many controversies. His voice and language are rich with traces of his Irish lineage, although he was born on American soil, the island of Cape Breton. But his parentage was of the “ould sod.”’ Father Phelan began to show his pug- macity at Edina, Mo., two years after he became a priest. The Civil War was nct ended and in Northeast Missouri Demo-- racy Was not popular. Father Phelan was a loyal Union man but he was a most un- compromising Democrat. When the soldiers were coming home from the war times began to warm up for the priest. The soidiers didn’t like his Democracy. They openly threatened to get r'd of him. He had always been a lover of good Horses and had several fine animals at Edina. They were the fastest in town and he took great pleasure in driving and riding them. . “The old sgol@iers, God bless ‘em,” says Father Phelan when he tells the story, could annoy him in no other way, so they planned to stop his pleasure with the horses. /They had an ordinance passed fixing a lingit to the speed of horses. Soon after. this Was passed the sisters of the convent startei to St. Louls. They had to go 40 miles by stage to the railroad. After they had jstarted early in the morning it was discovered they had forgotten sormme- thing they wished particularily to take with them. | Father Phelan was at break- fast when he heard of it. He told the boy to saddle hh's specdiest horse and rode after them, He caught them five miles out of Edina. xCom: ng hom eC he wanted to go A gray halr, slow but his horse was of another mind, He had merely been warming up on the run out and the father couldn't hold -h'm, Horse and rider went back to Edina and through the streets like winners on the home stretch. The horse really ran away with his rider as the bloody giants of the priest attested. That gave his soldier friends their chance, They had him arrested for violating the speed ordinance. Father Phelan didn’t con- test the case in the lower court, but took an appeal to the Circuit Court. The judge neglected to sign his appeal bond, and taking advantage of this tech- nicality, a constable levied on his horses. Father Phelan then made an affidavit that the execution was issued WIthOUut warrant of law. This gave those who were prosecut- ing him another technical advantage. They had counted on the appeal bond being worthless, and when he swore that the levy was illegal they secured his indict- ment for perjury. When the case came up for trial they had learned better. They paid the costs, the fee of the priest's at- torney, Gov. Johnson, and his witness fees. ‘I can remember as though it were yes- terday,”’ said the father, laughingly, ‘“‘what the old judge drawled in conclusion: ‘The citizens of Edina shall pay all the costs and Father Phelan shall pay nothing.’ Oh, it was rich. That is the true story of how I was once indicted.” Father Phelan mused for a few moments, He smiled at the remembrances that had been suggested. “IT had to explain that indictment after- ward, too,’’ he resumed. “It rose up to haunt me, but I think I downed the ghost effectually at last. It was this way: Bome years after I came to St. Louis, a fellow named Caldwell, who had been a teacher there, came to St. Louis and became the pr‘ncipal of one of our schools. He had left Edina under a cloud, having been mixed in a scandal. “I met him one day and he told me we should be friends. He said he had mend- ed his ways and intimated that he intend- ed to become a Catholic. I told*him I had no desire to rake up his record and that the dead past m'‘ght bury its dead so far as I was concerned. Eut when he became a candidate for the superintendency of public schoo's I thought it was my duty to interfere. I wrote him a kind note, warn- ing him that he must drop it. didn't tell anybody about him, but it became noised abroad that he had a dark past. The silly man held me respons’ble for this and attacked me in a newspaper, charging that I had been indicted for perjury at Edina. I wrote reaily a very funny reply, expiaining the whole affair, which was pub- lished. It moved a waggish pcet to versify about my horse, which he dubbed ‘The Confederate Colt.’ There isn't a copy of my repiy or of the pcem ‘n existence, so far as I know. An eastern aut! @ who has compiled a book on literary curiosities wrote for a copy, but I couldn't find it. Caldwell left town immediate:y and has never been heard from since.” Father Phelan once had a controversy which the other party sought to settle with a club, and then committed suicide. This was about 1874. A doctor had pur- chased some property from the Bspens- chieds, with whom he had a controversy about the cost of a division fence, half of wh'ch he wanted the Espenschieds to pay. Father Phelan purchased the lot adjotning the doctor’s property from FEspenschied and his importurate attentions _regarding the fence were transferred to the priest, who deciined to pay for half a fence the dor- tor had bullt whle Esrpenschied was the owner of the property. One Cay while Father Phelan had a man building a fence around his lot, the coc- tor came and hauled away some of thie posts. The priest got them and ordered him away. He went at the priest with the tamrping rod the man had been using. Father Phelan warded off his blow and slapped him on the cheek. He fel down as though he had been gricvousiy hurt and that night committed suicide. ‘The papers teok it up,” said F Phelan, “and made it ap pear that 7 Ss ather I was 2 ———_ - THERE 1S A DIAMOND LODE § IN AMERICA; FIND II in North America there Where it OMEWHERE is a great diamond lode. lies ts a matter of scientific conject- ure.

It is probable that the gems were trans- ported a long distance, and one geologist hazards the guess that the mother lode is to the east of James’ bay, in Labrador. The first American diamond to be dis- covered brought $1 to its owners. It was found by a resident of Eagle, Waukesha County, Wis., who was digging a well in his back yard. That was in 1876.

Two days of careful searchng by Mr. Dii- lies and Mr. Kunz, who were sent by the director of the United States geological sur- vey, resulted only in establishing the sim- ilarity of geological conditions above men- tioned. No diamonds were found, but this is not considered to demonstrate that there is nono there. Still, the formations in the eastern portion of the United States where diamonds have been found differ entirely from the South African, resembling more nearly those of the diamond fields of Bra- zii and India, The find of a dlamond was reported from Russeil County, Ky, in the summer of sss.

In the end he was vindicated. A council of four archbishops sat upon the scheme. “That was a great fight,”’ said Father Phelan, ‘‘There was much excitement and i was for a time almost alone in my posi- tion. When it was vindicated my friends in Edina adopted resolutions commending me for my course." Another ecclestiascal battle in which the Father was a leading factor was fought over the promulgation of the canon law of the United States. Prior to 1880 there was no canon law pe- cular to this country. The Pope about that time sent privately to an American prelate a copy of the canon law formulated by Cardinal Wiseman for the diocese of Westminster. It was pigeonholed for some reason and was not made vnubiic. Finally a friend ef Father Phe'an’s sent him a copy and he published it in ful’. It filled nearly the whole of the Watchman. It was a great surprise to the clerzy, who did not know of its existence The bishops immed! began picking it to pieces. defended it, and at orc? a great (controversy arose which excited the church in two continents.

Some of Father Phelan’s most amvusinz passapes at arms have been with editors of Protestant papers. One of these Was a prominent Presbyterian d-vine. Father Phe.an and he were continual’y tilting at each other. The priest cid his fighting in a jocular vein, while the Protes- tant divine took it seriously. Finatiy after one of Father Phelan’s most scorching at- tacks on Protestantism, his opponent said editorially that it appeared that Father Phelan really wished to destroy Trotes- tantism. This struck Father Preans funny s-de.

Finds of diamonds have frequently been reported from California, and though many reports were erroneous, it is an estabiished fact that they have been localities. Some of these stones are both beautiful and valuable, but in most in- stances they are small and, like the great majority of the other diamonds found in the United States, are valuable chiefly because of their scientific interest. In California, as in South Carolina, the diamonds were found in the auriferous gravel, from which they were washed out in the search for gold. Those which occur in the loose gravel of the valleys and bars of modern streamis are found unimpaired, but in the case of those where the gravel ccupying the valleys of much larger an- clent streams is covered with masses of lava or compact voleanic tufa, thrown out in @ former period of volcanic disturbance, they are not so good, for they are almost in- variably crushed in stamp mills so that only fragments are found, or swept away, to- gether with almost everything else which does not amalgamate with the mercury, by the force of the current if the gravel is worked by hydraulic mining. The first dia- mond from the Cherokee district, Butte County, California, which since has proved to be one of the most prolific diamond lo- calities ih the State, was found in 183. Dia- monds have since been reported from five counties in California—Amador, Butte, El Dorado, Nevada, and Trinity. Henry G. Hanks, State Mineralogist, is of the opin- ion that other localities and larger num- bers are yet to be discovered. Small diamonés have been found in Idaho and Montana under similar conditions to those in California. Three diamonds were re- cently exhibited tn New York sent from Butte, Mont., of which it was said that they were found in Montana.

The old Jesuit said he half suspected the boy of wishing to be a Catholic chiefly because he was much enamored of a Catholic girl who was in a convent {n the same city. Thereupon Father Phelan published a series of love letters purporting to have been written by the Protestant divine to the dark-eyed Kentucky Catholic girl. Father Phelan's most recent great fight was with the late editor, Joseph B. Mc- Cullagh, over the suicide of Judge Nor- mile. The priest does not enjoy talking of this battle royal. Normile was his friend in life and that he was forced into the fight by what he calls MoCullagh’s fierce attack on him. “He finally had to call in our old friend Bob Ingersoll to answer me,”’ said Father Phelan. “That was a nasty fight. It left @ bad taste in my mouth.” Archbishop Kain had hardly assumed the archiepfscopal authority when he fell afoul of Father Phelan. The archbishop sought to control the editor. Father Phelan con- tended that the archbishop had no authori- ty over him as an editor, though admitting that as a priest he was subject to discipline. Catholics were forbidden by the arch- ‘shop to read. the Watchman. ‘The archbishop got a decision from Sa- tolli against me, and I bowed submissively. TJ had to appeal the case to Satolli, but when the prelate decided the case without hearing me, I saw an appeal would be useless.’’ Father Phelan is a strong believer in asceticism for laymen as well as priests. “There may be immorality in ea drinking as well as in other thi said. ‘“‘We are above the animal because we have reason and intellect and we} should restrain ail animal instincts. It is not true that priests live well. They tannot} Their lives are irregular, since they are) at the beck and call of everybody all the time. Then it is a fact that priests usually eat the vilest cookery. They cannot afford to hire good cooks. Many bishops decline to eat at priests’ houses for this reason.’’ Father Phelan recently celebrated his 25th anniversary as rector of Mount arenes Church, | His methods of work are peculi & spends most of his time at his paris & great deal of editorial work at hi On Mondays and Fridays he spends about two hours tn his dingy little office, His Sanctum sanctorum is divided fram the rest of the office by a gothic partition.

Smith, who has been a camera artist for 2 years—his father was one before him— is always scheming on something of this sort. Nearly three yedrs ago he struck the idea of making a group picture of the fire department. It was out of the question without the sanction of the chief. So he went to Swingley about it. The idea did not strike Swingley at first and he discouraged it. Smith persisted, and finaily won a reluctant consent. Then he went after his pictures. A group of the whole department taken at once was an impossibility, so Smith started to obtain separate pictures of the members. He got about 150; the others didn’t care about going to the Smith went to the Chief oon: told that the men would not be ¢ sit. the Chief of the impending convention a group of the department would be.

She was dressed to go out, all in black— She was sti.l in mourning for their father— and with a tiny butiertiy-shaped bonnet of jet on her s.eek, satin-like hair. She gave a embarrassed laugh. “Why, Billy! I was not expecting you, liere is the Genera!.” Bily bowed gravely lounged by the window ing very much at home.

I'll sit here awhile and smoke, Sis, and read the papers.’’ “Very weli,”” replied his eister, with an air of relief. Then, after a few minutes’ indifferent chat, she drew on her gloves and departed with the General. Billy smoked his cigar thoughtfully. Who wae this man, this General, who was always with her? Billy thought of the flabby, livid face, the bold, heavily Mdded eyes, the fulsome manner like an unholy caress. “I don't like that man,” he said aloud. “I wish she wouldn't go out with him, I must caution her.

“ PIP ce WAIN a a ape te SUNDAY MORNING—ST. LOUIS POST-DISPATCH—JULY 23. 1899 _ BAS RELIEF SHOWING MOUNTED WARRIOR. _ WONDERFUL RELICS OF THE PAST UNCOVERED BY EXPLORERS AT ROME. ROME, Italy, July 10. Bpecial Correspondence Sunday Post-Dispatch. CCORDING to the famous archeolo- A gist, Sig. Giacomo Bont, a wonderful monument, just unearthed in the Ro- man Forum, is the oldest piece of engraved stone in Italy; the oldest monument in a Jand where every stick and stone is a frag- ment of antiquity—whose very dust is clas- Sic—here is something for the representa- tives of a'mushroom civilization to marvel *," at! 5 At the instigation of Sig. Guido Baccelll, “Minister of Public Instructions,” the lead- tng archeologist and classical students of Rome and of all Italy are now engaged in deciphering the inscriptions, whose discov- ery they consider a historical event. The information herewith sent exclusive- ly to the Sunday Post-Dispatch will, on be- coming known, excite the attention of scolars in every country of the world. The riddles on this antique monument have not yet been completely read. The untold centuries of its underground sojourn have partially erased its strongly carved lettering. Moreover, nations have developed and de- clined, learned tongues and forgotten them again since these sentences were framed. Before venturing to read them a man must have spent his life in learning. Nevertheless, the scholars who have un- dertaken the task have succeeded marvel-. ously. And they agree that the manument was erected and inscribed during the reign of Numa Pompilius, second King of Rome, of whose schoolboy can tell the story. Many schol- ars, previous to the d'scovery of this monu- ment, would have told you that there never was any Numa Pompilius, that the story of the first seven Kings of Rome was a harmless, semi-mythical elaboration of something much more commonplace. The inscription bears out history so far as io prove that there was a good King goodness and wisdom every, POMPILIUS people framed many wise laws. Certain of this lawmak- ing, that which related to the re- ligious and moral aspect of Roman life, he relegated to the priests. And it was the heads of a certain college of priests who wrote these laws to be set up where all Rome might see and obey. The Roman people of to-day who still cherish the pretty myth of the ancient founder of their city—Romulus, the wolf’s foundling—are interested in the fact that the monument now attracting so much at- tention was found directly under Romulus’ supposed tomb. . The site of this tomb has long been sup- posed to be marked by the “Lapis Niger,” a broad piece of pavement, made of an- tique black marble. It is almost under the arch of Septimus Severus, in the northwest corner of the Ro- man Forum. Excavations beneath the Lapis Niger were begun last January under the direction of Sig. Baccelll. guidance of his 7 NORTH SIDE OF The discovery of the monument, which lay very deeply buried, was not made until June. It was found in three sections—two enormous bases of stone, joined together, which originally served to support the col- ossal monument, and’ at the east of these, the middle and top sections of the monu- ment. The section which bears inscriptions on its four sides is reproduced here. No illustration, however, could give an idea of the vast size of the original pile of stone which must have dominated the entire city and all its surroundings. ~° Near the fragments of thei monument, im- bedded in soft sandstone, ware found other relics which strongly {lluminate the life and customs of the Pompilian period. Among these are bronze figures, terra-cotta urns and bronze disks and ornaments and bas- reliefs, all in a fairly good state of ah i vation. One of the most curious featuras of the inscription on the monument is that it is INSCRIBED COLUMN. BRONZE STATUETTES _ REPR ING DRAPED FIGURES oF WOMEN’ PARTS OF A BRIDLE written vertically. lines are to be read from right to left These difficulties are slight, however, in comparison with the fact that the gram- mar and «onstruction are at variance with all accepted rules of Latin grammar end with the preserved literature of Rome, Language had not crystallized into gram- mar or grown into Hterature in Numa’s time. It is agreed, however, that there are about six laws, each bearing on the ne- cessity of a moral life, and several exalt- ing the majesty of Jupiter. Their connec- tion with the principles and practices at- tributed to Numa is plain, and many of the later laws of Rome may now be clear- ly traced to these. There they stood, graven on deathless stone, in the heart of the great city, where whole nations must read them. The scholars who have read these laws were asked also why a monu- ment of such colossal size should have The characters are modifications of the ancient Greek, and the _SOUTIESIDEXOF ~~‘ INSCRIB EDXCOLUMN been found fn sections lying wide apart. aoe ~~ een would accoung or it. These learned men decided that there wag evidence of deliberate and very violent work of destruction on the part of the Romans themselves. History tells that Numa’s laws were written on tab lets, but that these tablets disappeared before the time of the Republic. Sig. Boni and his assoctates believe that the demolishing of the monument was re ’ : 2 ea ne ie ae % (cgnamneee At Niele Xe) has tn his unique “Blessed by the most high God is this one from out the sources of Israel, being a child of Benjamin and a master mind.” This interesting relic was picked up in the Catacombs at Rome in the year 1846 by a Mr. Henderson, who, as an American tourist, was witnessing some excavations then being made by the Government, Care. lessly picking up a heavy of earth which appeared to be a conglomerate mass of sand and dirt, Mr. Henderson began knocking off little bits of it until at last the medallion was disclosed. The lucky finder of the relic brought it home and gave it to the Ohio Wesleyan University, at Delaware. O. It was after- ward presented to Mr. Given’s father, then piece By J. F. Given. To the Editor of the Sunday Post-Dispatch. This medallion, in its morocco case, lay on the table in my home and was frequent- ly shown to friends as an antiquity and as the prize which my father obtained on account of his skill as a linguist, but I think we none of us realized the great value our possession undoubtedly would have to the world at large. It was not uwntil I attended a lecture, some thirty years after the medalilon came into our family, that the importance of the curio was made apparent to me. The sub- ject of the lecture was ‘‘Saul of Tarsus,’’ delivered by George R. Wendling. I knew that my medallion must have been made of the apostle after his conversion, as which The Medallion Portrait of the Apostle Paul Owned by J. F. Given of Decatur, Ill. ter inches in diameter and is made of some eomposition harder than cast iron. It was molded with such skill that every line ana detter is distinct. The head of the apostle OR the medallion is about two inches long and is raised a third of an inch above the surface. Around the head are inscribed the words, “Vas electionis, Paulus Apostolus,” which Sransiated, mean ‘The Chosen Vessel, Paul "the Apostle,”’ this being the term that Paul ; - tise when speaking of himself in the Sc rip- tures. On the reverse side of the medallion fs a tl inscription, the translation reading: the pastor of St. Paul's Church, as a re- ward for a very difficult piece of transla- tion which Mr.-Given had succeeded in making to the extreme satisfaction of the faculty. For many years the medallion remained in obscurity, until finally J. F. Given, a son of the minister, realized the value and interest of the curio in his possession, Mr, Given, the elder, was then dead. J. F. Given, in a letter to the Sunday Post-Dispatch, describes the means he has taken to establish the authenticity of the relic and his plans in regard to it in the future, yee the inscription is ‘‘Paul’’ and not ‘‘Saul,” the former name being given to him after he became one of Christ’s followers. The lecturer told kow Saul traveled toward Damascus to persecute the little handful of people who were following the Christ, and how Saul in turn became converted and re- ceived his new name. All this history revived my interest in the portrait, and I at once took means to have the antiquity and authenticity of the medallion established. I sent it to the Smithsonian Institution for an examination and was told that the picture was made prior to the twelfth cen- tury, was proved by the metal and by the workmanship of the carving, and that as UNIQUE IDEAS SUGGESTED BY CRANKS 10 THE MANAGER OF BUFFALO'S EXPOSITION.

F, GIVEN, *“Saul,’”’ who was also called “Paul,” was of pure Jewish descent, of the tribe of Benjamin. In the Acts of the Apostles it is stated that he was born at Tarsus, in Cilicia; but there is also a tradition that Giscaia, the last of the fortress towns to hold out against Rome, was hig birthplace. Some writers think that Paul adopted this name out of compliment to his first Gen- tile convert. Others contend that it was assumed by Paul after the beginning of his min:stry and that it is derived from the Latin Paulus, meaning “least among the apostles,’’ or ‘“‘little of stature.’’ Like most Jewish boys, he learned the trade of tent making. Whether Paul was married or not is another disputed point. From some of ‘his writings it would appear that he was not, but some authorities claim that he must have been a widower. Paul was always an enthusiast. He be- came a leader among persecutors before his conversion to Christianity, and pursued his victims with the same zeal that afterward characterized his work as a missionary. He was not content with the limits of Palestine, but extended his fleld to neigh- boring cities. He intended taking as pris- oners to Jerusalem any whom he found be- longing to a sect known as “The Way,” @ term probably used by the Christians of themselves. On the way to Damascus, however, Paul himself became a convert to the hated religion and claimed to haye had a personal interview with Christ. It was not until three years later that he went to Jerusalem, and after that he traveled far preaching the gospel. He died at Rome, but the date of his death is uncertain, Of his personal appearance nothing up to this time has been known save that Paul himself quotes as the adverse remarks of his opponents at Corinth: ‘His letters,”’ they say, “‘are weighty and strong; but h‘s presence is weak and his speech of no account,’ They can be placed in crypts in the wall, in a row, you know.” “Just simply file them away, as though they were slipped into pigeon holes,”’ sug- gested the listener. “What a shocking manner of expression!” said the would-be concessionaire. ‘True the plan which I have prepared provided for an ornamental wall with apertures cut into it in which the caskets containing the re- mains of the deceased could be slipped, but it seems cruel to refer to them as being filed in pigeon holes. “You see if the idea is adopted I can con- struct on the Exposition grounds an orna- mental building, a magnificent tomb, in fact, and in that can apportion off sections and construct the apertures for the recep- tion of the subjects. It’s a splendid idea, and it keeps families from being scattered, They can all be placed in the proper order in these apertures, and there the remaining members of the stricken family can come from time to time to see them.” “The idea is good,” said the listener. “‘I can imagine a fond Chicago wife going to the preserving house, and with tears in her eves pull from their respective pigeon—beg pardon—crypts, Beloved Husbands Nos, 1, 2, 3, 4, drop a tear on the snowy brow of each. and then go forth in search of No. 5-to-be.”’ “And is it your idea to demonstrate on the grounds your methods as well as the results?” “Assuredly. I wish to erect my furnaces and there on subjects show how they are solidified, or preserved. I have already talked with a number of your most promi- nent undertakers, and arrangements can be completed to supply me_ with enough subjects to keep the plant run- ning from the opening of the Exposition gates to the closing of them, and es that I have some very beautiful ns at sao, Sem be ino Bearers Oe Hat tg STRANGE CREATURES DISCOVERED UNDERGROUND IN PENNSYLVANIA. 5 Sa au af . m+ es sb: “Ghastly splashings in the water and the hissing of snakes greeted them.” LAND of marvels, of prehistorl A wonders, has been unearthed in Sus- quehanna County, Pa. It seems to be a lingering section of the antediluvian world—a nook hidden from the eye of man for thousands of years, until the modern agency of dynamite unearthed it and its strange monsters. While 75 bewildered workmen gazed at them with bulging eyes these beings, among the strangest ever seen by mortals, lashed the water with their tails, until, wearied by this unaccustomed labor, they wriggled and crawled upon the bank, and, lying there, blinking with their wonderful eyes at the sun, expired beneath its rays. The discovery was due to the desire of &@ water company to enlarge its re servoir. The rock there is of remarkable hardness, and-in blasting a section of the original reservoir a number of strange. objects were found embedded in it. These included péet- rifled fish, the like of which the residents of Susquehanna County had never seen be- fore. The extreme age of the fish was UuD- questionably proved by the depth at which they were found. Scientists claimed that they could not have lived less than 500 years ago. Their kind, petrified specimens of which exist in several museums, have long since been extinct. Other than by these finds, there was nothing to indicate that a storehouse of prehistoric life was so close at hand. It was founda necessary to use dynamite to pierce through the adamantine bed of rock encountered 15 feet under ground. After several smal! blasts had failed to produce the required result, one mighty charge of dynamite was placed in posit‘on and fired by electricity. Immense piecqs of rock were hurled high . earth trembled. on-into the air. “— Hurrying back to learn the scot hain eit i crevice made, the Bang, from the edge of the workings, could see that through th entire bed there was a Sacur R e ing into the hole over the ete Clam ber- the foreman Was astonished poaye 7 a far mag a pool limpia water.

’ A. & Gillispie, y ' ac SUNDAY MORNING—SsT. LOUIS POST-DISPATCH—JULY 23, HY DOM men who have shot down wom- ex without warning are in the St. (Louis jail. ‘Two of the women were almost instantly killed. The other was blinded for life. These men are Frank Callaway, who killed his wife during the afternoon of April 10, now under sentence of death; ffugh Donnelly, who killed Mrs. George Miller, the wifé of his employer, on the morning of July 4; John Brady. who shot and Dilinded his wife on the night of July 6. Donnelly is 2 years of age; Callaway, about %; Brady, 30. Their crimes, it will be noticed, were committed at three different times in the day—morning, afternoon and night. Callaway was separated from his wife and suspected her of infidelity. He had been drinking, when he shot her. Donnelly, presumably, loved the hand- some young wife of Grocer Miller. After she had fallen to the sidewalk he stooped, | raised her head and imprinted a fervid | kiss upon hér lips before he fied. ; melly had been out all night to a dance Don- and showed the effects of dissipation. Brady consulted a clairvoyant in 8&t. Joseph, Mo. She told him that his wife, who was in St. Louis, and from whom he Was separated, was unfaithfu] to her mar- riage vow. He came to St. Louls and tried to kill her. He had been drinking when he found her. What prompted these men to these crimes? Callaway was an associate of Arthur Duestrow, who was hung for wife mur- der. Did Duestrow’'s crime suggest Calla- way's, and did Callaway’s, in turn, sug- gest the crimes of Donnelly and Brady? Were their crimes due to jealousy? To strong drink? To both? Or had they the murderous impulse already with them? Dr. Arthur E. Mink, neurologist, and Charles L. Marten, physician and phrenol- ogist, have examined these men and made answer for the Sunday Post-Dispatch. Dr. Mink says: By Dr. Arthur E. Mink, Neurologist. HE effects of alcohol vary according to tf sex, age and race. Alcohol is bene- ficial to the aged and detrimental to the youthful. Its effects are different in the male and female and amongst the various races. A drunken negro will use his razor. A = ee es _ _— * 4 JOHN BRADY. drunken American will usually talk politics. Drunken Britigshers like to brag. A tipsy Irishman likes to fight, a drunken French- man to dance, a drunken Italian wants to stab, a drunken Spaniard to serenade his sweetheart, a drunken German wants to sing, while a drunken Russian wants to get drunker, Alcohol at first excites the circulation of the brain and then begins to paralyze the brain cencers in the inverse order of their development. The more complicated parts of the brain in the cerebral hemispheres are first affected, while the lower and less complicated but more vital centers are least affected. The flow of ideas and imagination is thus increased and a condition of joyousness and volubility like that of a child occurs. The imagination and memory then fail in some, while brutal passions and in- stincts predominate. In others the power of co-ordination is impaired before the men- tal faculties. The speech then becomes thick and the gait staggering and uncer- tain. FRANK CALLAWAY. This may be followed by the stage of dead drunkenness with unconsciousness and snoring breathing, and if this advance a step further the heart and respiration be- come paralyzed and death occurs. Beer and ale are the least harmful of al- coholic beverages, as they contain on an average not more than 3 to 6 per cent of alcohol. Dry wines come next, containing from 6 to 0 per cent of aiconol. Cnampagn®@, sherry, port, etc., have an alcoholic percent- age of from 16 to 25 per cent, The most detrimental of all are the so- called spiritous Hquors, such as brandy, rum, gin and whisky, containing from 2 to 50 per cent of alcohol. The continuous abuse Gf alcoholic bever- ages, especially of the stronger kinds, pro- duce a condition known as chronic alcohol- ism. This is characterized by certain phys- ical and mental symptoms. Alcoholism is responsible for at least 530 per cent of the crimes and misdemeanors and at least 28 per cent of the cases of insanity, occurring in civilized society. A large number of N KILL THE WOM Opinions by Dr. Arthur E. Mink, Neurologist, and Chas. S. Morten, N thi " 4 y, a Hi wy m ‘ Xr { XN ‘ » "4 \ ts. suicides are also caused by alcoholism. The abuse of alcohol, in the first Place, causes a catarrhal conditton of the mouth, stomach and _ intestines, This causes in its turn a derangement of the nutrition of the other organs, producing thus a hardening of the liver and kid- neys, and tends in general to bring about & premature derangement and wasting of the entire body. It has been demonstrated that alcohol has an especial affinity for the nervous tissues. The nerves which control the caliber of the blood vessels become paralyzed, manifest- ing itself especially in the reddened face and nose of the drunkard. Later on the skin becomes waxy, yellowish in color and has a bloated and wrinkled appearance, with here and there dilated muscles and arterioles. The hair becomes gray prema- turely. The gait is clumsy and uncertain and the individual has trembling or tre- mor, especially of the hands. The mental signs are numerous. The drunkard is subject to fits of pro- found depression and becomes morose and HUGH DONNELLY. irritable. He is afflicted with a sort of moral numbness, and becomes careless about his personal appearance, family and business, All may go to ruin, but he does not care, and the contempt of others does not affect him. His sole aim is to satisfy his intense craving for spirits. His irrita- bility of temper becomes aggravated and the slightest irritation is sufficient ta cause in him a brutal outbreak of blind, destruc- tive, indiscriminate rage. He becomes ego- tistic, cynical and brutal. His morose- ness and mental depression may increase to such a degree that he finally commits suicide. Time and again he makes a resolve to quit drinking, for he himself foresees his ulti- mate ruin, but to no purpose; his appetite fs so strong and his will so weak that he is no Jonger capable of acting out his resolu- ‘tions. Inasmuch as his drunkenness !{s disgusting to his wife and she therefore repels his brutal advances, his morbid mind draws the conclusion that she is unfaithful tp him, and has paramours by the dozen. He may THEY come to the conclusion that his so-called children are not his own for this reason. Delusions of conjugal infidelity, usually on the part of the wife, is the most character- istic earmark of alcholism or alcholic in- sanity. As a rule this symptom its exas- perated by the hallucinations and illusions of sight and hearing. Nearly all of the re- cent wife murders which have taken place in St. Louis, were in my opinion committed by individuals who were alcoholically in- sane. These deeds are often committed by ehronic alcholics, when they have greatly exceeded their usual potations. In the ma- jority of cases alcoholics are afflicted with headache, sleep badly, or have frightful dreams. They may have roaring in the ears, dizziness in the head or phantasms be- fore the eyes, etc, They often have hallu- cinations of men or animals. They often hear voices and are usually of a timid or less alcohol to make a chronic alcohoile less alcohol to make a chronic alcholic drunk than it does a healthy person, In the annals of medical jurisprudence we can affirm that 50 per cent or more of the murderers who killed their wives, because of morbid jealousy, were incited thereto by chronic alcoholism or alcoholic insanity. ARTHUR E. MINK. By Charles S. Morten, Physician and Phrenologist. HRBNOLOGY is a system of philoso- p phy, the fundamental principles of which are that the brain is the or- gan of the mind and that different parts of the brain have different functions. To Dr. Gall of Vienna we are indebted for the first discoveries made in regard to this science. An hundred years have passed since he began his researches. He was the first anatomist to dissect the brain. While it is a fact that size is a measure of power yet there must be considered quality as well as size. In making an estimate of the mental abilities of an individual we always regard the quality of his organization as a whole upon which we base our ideas of his talents and traits of character. An individual with coarse hair and ir- regular features will be less acute in the mental characteristics than one of the same phrenological developments, but pos- sessing a finer physical and nervous make- up. Some men resemble their mothers in points of effeminacy. Men of effeminate natures are more ardent—more_ intense— more acute in imagination and feeling— their loves and hates are much stronger than if they were of the full masculine type, for women are more intense in all things than men.

LORING, a St. Louis law- J yer, has discovered a striking resem- blance between the cose of Eugene Aram of England in 1759 and that of Alex- ander Jester of Missouri in 1899. Each committed murder for the purpose of rob- bery. Bach victim was the traveling com- panion of his slayer. Aram was @ school- master, of whom it was said: Much study had made him very lean And pale and leaden-eyed. Jester, under the alias of W. A. Hill, preached fn Oklahoma and Texas. Both men were betrayed by women—Aram by his wife, Jester by his sister. Each man’s victim followed a humble occupation. Aram’s was a shoemaker; Jester’s a trav- eling tradesman, who carried a small stock of goods in a wagon. Both men long es- caped detection—Aram for 15 years, Jester for 2. Each man was past middle age when his crime was committed—Aram 33, Jester 58. Each denied his guilt. Aram’s case became celebrated for all time through the eloquent defense he made of himself, cryStallizing into a volume the _ world’s record, showing the fallibility of circum- stantial evidence. Jester’s case is notable as proving far more forcibly than usual the truth of the saying, ‘““Murder will out.” The evidence in each case consisted wholly of circumstantial evidence. Aram’s conviction was brought about by means of human bones found in a cave. These, the prdsecution proved, were those of Dan- fel Clark, the missing shoemaker. Jéster’s conviction may depend upon the human bones found in Reese’s Creek, Au- drain County, Mo. Can the prosecution sat- isfy a jury that these are the bones of Gil- bert Gates, who, according to the inscrip- JEOTEK tion on his tombstone, was ‘“‘murdered in Missouri by Alexander Jester, Jan. 2%, 1871?" In Eugene Aram’s defense of himself he claimed that the corpus delicti—that is “‘the body, substance or foundation of the of- fense’’—was lacking. In. other words, pleading innocence of crime, he claimed that his prosecutors had failed to show that the bones found were those.of the missing shoemaker; or, even admitting that they were, that the shoemaker had come to his death by unlawful violence at the hands of the defendant, Aram. In spite of this plea, he was convicted and executed shortly after his arrest in August, 1769. A similar plea will undoubtedly be ad- vanced in the case of Alexander Jester. Will the parallel be carried out to the point of execution? Aram’s case has been rendered immortal by Thomas Hood’s poem, “The Dream of Eugene Aram,” as well as by Sir Edward Bulwer-Lytton’s beautiful romance, ‘“Eu- gene Aram,”’ which had a great vogue in its day. Aram was born in Yorkshire, England, in 17064. His father was a poor gardener. The son, surmounting almost insuperable diffi- culties, after years of diligent study, be- came deeply learned, the master of many languages and all the abstract sciences. He married and became a schoolteacher. At the age of 30 he removed to Knaresbor- ough and remained there ll years. He be- came implicated in a robbery, but was freed through lack of evidence. But the people believed him guilty, and he thought it best to go to London. With him went Daniel Clark. Fifteen years later a skeleton, be- lieved to be his, borough. In the meantime, Aram taught school throughout England, finally settling at Lynn, in Norfolk, and had become old. He had always been known as moody, silent and reserved. His wife, bursting with the importance of a great secret, frequently in- timated tod'their friends that her husband and a man named Houseman were instru- mental it Clark’s disappearance. House- man turmed State’s evidence, as we say now, and informed the authorities that Clatk’s Body was buried in a particular spot in St, fRobert’s Cave, near by. It was found as described and upon this evidence and other less important circumstances Aram fwas convicted Aug. 3, 1759, and exe- cuted 4hree days later. Aram conducted his own defense, and the case attracted attention throughout Eu- rope. He did not attempt to deny the evi- dence of Houseman, but raked the history of the world fore and aft to furnish ex- amples of the unreliability and danger of circumstantial evidence. Later he acknowl- edged his guilt, but claimed that he had killed Clark or revenge, because Clark had attempted to make ilove to his (Aram’s) wife. Aram tried to commit suicide by opening an artery in ‘his wrist, but he was discovered in time to save his life. The evidence showed that Dane! Clark had disappeared after having obtained consid- efable money and a large quantity of goods, py false pretenses, and that Aram, House- than and a man named Terry, who was nev- er apprehended, were concerned in his mur- der. Thomas Hood, !n his “The Dream of Eu- - gene A Aram,” te! tells how ‘‘pleasantly shone was dup up near Knares- FURNISHES ALMOST AN EXACT PAR- w ALLEL TO THE FAMOUS CASE OF wx the setting sun over the town of Lynn,” and speaks thus of the school children and their teacher: Like sportive deer they coursed about And shouted as they ran Turning to mirth all ‘things of earth As only boyhood can: But. the Usher sat remote from all, A melancholy man. The schoolmaster tried to read, but found it impossible. Jumping up feverishly, he walked ‘back and forth and finally came upon a little boy reading a book, ‘‘The Death of Abel.” \Aram “sat down beside the lad and talked with him of Cain.” Hood tells the remainder of the story in these words: “Ah, well,’ quoth he, “‘I know for truth Their pangs must be extreme— roe, woe, unutterable woe!— Who spill life’s sacred stream! or why?

That very night, while gentle sleep The urchin's eyelids kissed, Two stern-faced men set out from Lyng Through cold and heavy mist; And Eugene Aram walked between, With gyves upon his wrist. Other celebrated cases in which convic- tion of murder has been obtained by means of bones or other portions of the human body are those of Prof. Webster of the Grove Street Hospital, Boston, who killed an unfortunate creditor named Parkman, 30 years ago, and burned his body in a fur- nace, and the more recent case of Adolph Luetgert of Chicago, who ts serving a pen- itentlary sentence for having killed his wife and consumed her body with ody with acids. ones ee “§ THE THREE WLY three charter members of H.

Pettiford of 3031 Hick- ory street. H. McGee Lodge was the third Masonile lodge organized west of the Mississippi River. Prince Hall was the first and Lone Star the second. These were under the ju- risdiction of Ohfo. It was desired to have @ grand lodge in Missouri. It was neces- sury to have three warranted lodges before thie could be. One of the strong reasons for the organization of McGee Lodge was to make a grand lodge possible. It was organized in 1863 in a hall at Thira and Washington avenue by seven of the leading young colored men of that time. They were I. D. Phillips, W. M.: D. R. Powell, 8. W.; Henry Turner, J. W.; J. Q. Johnson, secretary; Frank Carter, 8. *D.; Bdward Butler, treasurer, and George Hol- land. It was 1864 before the lodge received its warrant. In the meantime, it was joined by Brown, Hopson and Pettiford. When the warrant was received there were 37 members. It is these 37 of whom Brown, Hopson and Pettiford are the survivors: The lodge now has a membership of 117, inoluded among whom are many of the most prominent and best educated negroes in the oity. All three of the survivors of the origina) members are past masters of the lodge. The present officere are: John C. Feugh, wW. M.; George Lofton, 8. W.; James Aus- ' tin, J. W.; Thomas A.

We found dear Filorie looking better, as lately the officials have admitted her to work in the officers’ kitch- en, where there is more air, sun and light; and even this slight amelioration from the inside darkness, silence and tomb- lke surroundings of the real prison is @ boon. Her conduct has always been per- fectly obedient, and her submission and pa- tience most wonderful.

RIOR to the Legislature of 1889 there had practically been no anti-trust legislation in this State, that is to gay, no effective legislation. Statutes had manner in which foreign corporations could transact business in this State, embodying simply the general conditions and restrictions found in all States, namely, designating an agent who should be a resident of the State for the purpose of making a service upon him bind the corporation; requiring fire in- =@.. surance companies to give a bond of $20,000 @6 &@ guarantee for the faithful discharge of valid claims resulting from loss or damage hy fire, under policies iesued by them. In 18%, the Legislature passed an act regulating foreign corporations doing bus!i- fess in this State. This act simply made any one soliciting insurance the soliciting agent of the company, and bound the com- pany by the act of its agent. In 1897 was enacted the firet anti-trust faw, being entitled an act to prevent com- Dinations of trusts and corporations in the @tate of Arkansas.

Kentucky circuit of speeches. in Stats and national ecnycn- impression was made through-’° NE): tions, Stone’s speeches attracted much at- tention. Even his manner:sms are impress~ ive. When speak'ng from the stage of a theater he will gradvaliy work his figure down to thé footlights, where he wil puc one foot dangerousiy near the edge, the ‘other well back, and hammer his facts int the mind “Circuit riding’’ was nesr.y State when Stone located at Nevado, Mo., for the practice of lIqgw, in 370, but he fraveled over h’s circuit attenc:ng court in the several counties. His practice. ilke that of most country hawyers, was bot civil and criminal. He apneared for the defense in a number of murcer cases nota- bly that of Hutton. for the kiliing of Def- fenbaugh. eo It wes shown in this case that I effen- baugh had insulted Hutton’s wife. He sent Peffenbaugh a letter, which was read to the jury, notifying him that ‘f he ever met him he would ki:!] him. Three weeks later Deffenbaugh went to Nevada, reaching there on Sunday morning and going to a hotel. ‘Hutton, who lived at Nevada, was told that Deffenbaugh,. was In town. He immediately got his pisto! and went In search of him. He stopped at the hotel land inquired for Deffenbaugh and was d- rected to a liver® stable. He started at once for the stable and on the way saw Deffenbaugh standing !n a drug store, lght- ing a cigar. He walked !n ard said: “I'm going to kill you,” and shot him. Deffen- baugh died the following day. The reader will readily understand that the defense of Hutton was ro smail under- taking. .It was manifestly a wlifu! and deliberate murder. Stone wes caliel to the defense. He pleaded emotional insanity, but in his argument he took the bo!d stand that if a man wrengs arother’s wife he puts his Hfe at issue. The speech of Gov. Stone. on the final day of tre trial, is talked about yet, as one of the greatest ever heard in Missouri—impassoned, cenuncia- tovv and pieading. He spoke for four hours and at the end the jury brought in a verdict of acquittal. Stone never prosecuted but one man for murder. That was the famous case of ftate vs. France, for killing Dickey in St. Clair County. France was convicted of murder in the second degree and sen- tenced to 40 years in the penitentiary, but after several years of imprieonment at Jef- ferson City he was pardoned by the Gov- ernor. After that Stone went to Congress and let much of his law practice pass into the hands of others, In 1892, after Stone had served three terms in Congress, he came back to Mis- souri and asked the Democratic. party t{ nominate him for Governor. Many of hij over in th's fricnds thought it an inopportune tfme for the realization of hie hopes in that direc- tion. David R. Francis, a Wealthy St Louisan, was in the last year of his term as Governor, The cry had been raised that the farmers Cemanded a candidate that year of their own choosing, and Richard Daltcn of Rails was presumed to be in the highest favor, Stone entered the field late. He wont about the State in a seemingly hopete canvass, When the cay for the convention arrived the Fcat was almost unbearable, the mer. cruy registering 102 in the shade. The con- test had grown biiter and exciting. Trou- ble was anticipated, Stcne—tactful, de‘hb- erate and cool—laid his plans, slept lUttie, taiked less, grceted everybocy with a smilie and a corécial hanéshake, and defied his enemics. £s Along late in the afternoon, when the batiotisg had stood steadily with Dalton in the lead, and the delegates had worked themselves into a fight:ng humor, the Stone contingent began to press their adversar- fies hard. Before another hour the Dalton delegates were stampeded and just as the vote was being cast which nominated Stone a etorm of wind struck the State Capitol bui'ding, tore off the paper bDiinds and gent them whirling out of the win- duws, If the convention had not been so deeply engrossed there would Nave been a panic. In 1895, Senator Vest appeared at Jefferson City asking re-election to the United States Senate, there was a mani- fest disposition on the part of members of the Legislature to break away from him and vote for Gov. Stene.° Against this the Governor earnest!y expostulated, giving as a rezson that his ten years In office had greatly impoverished him and that he owed it to his family to ‘ play no more at po.-itics” urtil they had been better proviced for. When his term of service as Governor was ended he came to 8t. Louis and took up his residence. Hie was fortunate from the cuiset. Within a year he becadnre receiver of the Mullenphy Bank, the attorney for Liggett & Myers and a number of other big corporations. He has prospered appar- ent'y at every turn and to-day he is reck- oned as being, at ledst, in good circum- stances. At the National Democratic Convention of 1896 he was elected a member for Mis- souri of the National Democratic Commit- tee. Since then he has largely dominated it by his personal influence and the illness of Senator Jones has given+to him the burden of the national campaign. He is reckoned to-day as sryan’s friend and adviser.

Such progressive combustion is best se- cured by multi-perforating the grains, as is done in the Maxim-Schupphaus smoke- less powder. When black powder which has been pressed into hard cakes, or prisms, is fired in a gun, the small particles of saltpetre and sulphur at the surface instantly fuse and combine with one another and with the adjacent particles of charcoal, phate and carbonate of potash, setting free carbonic acid gas, nitrogen oxide.

It has had $ts ups and downs, but now it is apparent- ly prosperous, How long it will continueisa problem. It has been the experience of other purely co-operative colonies that the average member loses ambition, that greatest spur to effort, and that a few have to lift tae heavy end of the log and say nothing, while the many lift the small end and do the grunting. So far in Ruskin this bas not happenei—but it may. The colony of Ruskin was conceived in the brain of J. A. Wayland of Greensburg, Ind. Wayland an ardent Socialist, and has been a thorough believer and advécate for years. In 1889 he is started a weekly paper along the lines of Socialism, and in it advocated the imme- diate foundation of a colony on the plan of common ownership of land, improvements and productive capital. It was to be in lines substantially similar to those of the Shaker communities and the Amana colony, ex- cept that there was to be no religious be- lef necessary to join it nor was a creed to be considered in its existence. In ‘The Coming Nation,” his paper, Wayland called upon all who wished to join such a com- munity to correspond with him. Wayland was as brilliant as a writer as he was ardent as a socialist. ‘The Com- ing Nation’’ grew rapidly in circulation and influence—so much so, in fact, that Wayland felt by the spring of 1894 that he was strongly enough supported to warrant Sim in starting his colony, so he began to look for a site. About 45 miles from Nash- ville, in Tennessee, on the Nashville, Chat- tanooga & St. Louis Railroad, is Tennes- see City, which at that time was owned by a Chicago syndicate, and this company offered him 500 acres of land two miles from the station for nothing. Wayland ac- cepted the offer and immediately built a temporary printery at Tennessee City, moved his paper there and began erecting houses on the 500-acre tract. The newspaper had by this time reachea a circulation of more than 30,000 copies ,and constituted the main cash resource of the colony, which was a success from the slart. It still was essentially a Wayland settlement, but about 1895 he and the olon- iets fell out over titles and he left the place to ats fate. The immediate cause of the "LARGEST AND SMALLEST OF BICYCLISTS MEET.

Way- land moved to Girard, Kan., and started “The Appeal to Reason,” now issued ‘there, along the lines of ‘“‘The Coming Nation.” The Ruskin Co-operation Association was incorporated under the ordinary joint stock statutes of the State of Tennessee. The first 30 or 40 members were admitted with- out payment, the consideration for mem- bership being the work they had done in connection with “The Coming Nation’’ ane in effecting the organization. The subse- quent members paid $500 for a family mem- bership, represented by a share of stock as in other corporations. This plan of incorpo- ration was not in accord with the princi- pies of common ownership which was really intended, and it gave rise to more or less trouble on the part of members who wishrd to withdraw, and as their money had been invested in property they could not be paid off. In spite of this, however, the colony went along in the even tenor of its way and even grew. It was ascertained that the 500 acre tract was very poor and hilly land, en- tirely unsuited for agricultural purposes, and indeed too hilly for even a town. The members looked around in different parts of the country for a new place, and finally decided on two farms situated in the om valley of Yellow Creek, about four miles | distant fr®m the first site. They began moving in the fall of 1896, finishing in the spring of 1897. Together, with subsequent purchases, they now own at that place about 700 acres, one-half of which is in cul- tivation. Besides the farm houses, a grist mill and a store,. the Ruskinites have now about buildings... The principal structure is a three-story frame, 650x150 feet. The ground floor is used for office, printing house, ma- chine shop, barber shop and shoemaker shop; the second floor contains the library, editorial rooms and sleeping rooms; the third floor contains the kitchen and com- mon dining-room for all the colonists. Outside of this, for business and public pur- poses, they have a large bakery, a laundry, saw mill and flour mill, a school house, a store and a Queen Anne club house, used by the bacheiors. Adjacent to this central business portion of the town there is a large cave, which is used for summer picnics, summer dances and for growing mushrooms. The members of the colony are largely mechanics and laboring men, but there 1s a sprinkling of doctors, teachers and busi- ness men. The Board of Directors, the governing body, is elected annually by all the members, and the Initiative, Referen- dum and Imperative Mandate are in prac- tical use. Pioneer residences of two and three rooms have been built for family liv- ing purposes, but all eat in the common dining-room. These primitive dwellings are to be replaced by more commodious and pretentious ones. The family life is en- tirely private. The work at Ruskin is divided into de- partments with a leader in charge of each, There has been no trouble about men work- ing. The men labor eight ‘hours and the women five. The smaller girls wait on the table. Over and above the common pro- Vision there is such a wages payment as the finances will permit, this payment be- ing made im labor checks, which are good at the store for goods at cost price. The association has always paid cash for all of its purchases and Keeps a bank account at the Third National Bank of St. Louls. Mr. Corbett, the buyer, was formerly in the employ of D. 8. Flower at Carthage, Mo., and is a first-class business man. As stated, ‘The Coming Age” is the chief source of Ruskin’s income. Its eJitors in the past have been the J. A. Wayland men- tioned; A. 8S. Edwards, now editor of the Social] Democratic Herald, and the well- known writer and lecturer, Herbert N. Cas- son, now an editorial writer for a New York paper. The paper maintains a circu- lation of from 30,000 to W,W0 copies, going to all parts of the world. The Ruskinites’ theory is that by apply- ing co-operation to all their affairs they can in time have ali that the natural re- sources will yield without @ny waste for middlemen and idlera and with no danger of being thrown out of a living. Their greatest trouble has been the joint stock features of their colony, but proceedings have been taken to remove this difficulty by reorganizing as an educational and benevolent institution, the subscribers to reaigulng er new pian all individual shoeleather, while the shoemaker thinks fit to demand very little less for a child’s shoe than for that of a man. The kindergarten is in sympathetic hands and the little wee mites seem to enjoy it almost like a panto- mime, and so take kindly to learning made easy. ‘*[he food is Spartan in its simplicity, and I learn this is more so than a little time back, and it is occasioned by so much la- bor and time having had to be expended on the removal of the colony from the old site, leaving insufficient time and labor for farming, but more cattle.will now be pur- chased and the farm will be giving more produce. Yet of plain food there is plenty for all. Compare this with any. non-co- operative city or hamlet outside and it could searcely with truth be said of it, ‘There is plenty of plain food for all.’ es * «& ‘Labor is managed by foremen over each department and new members are as much as possible put to work they have been ac- customed to. As the past showed that they had been unwise in admitting some who proved not trues co-operators, a much closer scrutiny and examination of would-be members is now made, * * * ‘Ruskin could not have chosen a grander spot in which to teach competition that co-operation is its necessary sequénce and claims. When this is effected, Ruskin will stand in the same position .as a college or university or hospital stands. Any one may come or go, but none can make a claim for any share in the property. This always was the intention, but the State incorporation laws did not fit. Walter G. Treacher of Bombay, who has traveled the world over, especially through such countries as Afghanistan, Africa, India and the like, studying the problems of living, visited Ruskin in May, 1897. Of it he says “Now for my opinion of Ruskin—I think it has done wonders. It has taken the anxious look from all its residents; poverty and the fear of poverty have gone, and to have done this in the short period of its existence is much {ndeeoa. “I find the children in capital physical condition, and joyous, and bright, again comparing favorably with the town-bred English child. “It is the custom for the children to dis- card shoes and stockings during the warm- er weather, and this makes a pleasant sight, the bonnie health-browned limbs and feet against the clean dresses; it is not pov- erty that dictates the custom, though, mind you, I fancy it must commend itself to parents, for any paterfamilias knows that t children do get through with a deal of PREACHER JINNETT WOULD HAVE TAREE HOLIDAYS IN A WEER. i UF should demand of our lawmakers Saturday and round, form When ano em- laborer REV.

ISS AMELIA JUDGON became sawmiller all in one day. Six or seven ycars ago her brother, An- drew B. Judson, left St. Louis and came to Northern Arizona (having inherited a con- isiderable fortune from an uncle at his birthplace, Gulton, Mo.), convinced that ‘there was money in developing the sugar pine forests in Coconino County, between Williams, Ariz., and the Grand Canyon of the Colorado River. Inside of a year he in- vested $38,000 in timber lands and built a sawmill and established the Judson lumber ‘camp, 2 miles northeast of Williams. He madé a specialty of timber suitable for boxes for the Calfornia fruit trade and from the start was successful. In June, 1398, young Judson'’s mother and sister came to visit him. Miss Amelia Jud- son had just finished a course at Cornell University and expected, after leaving Aris- ona, to go to Paris to study art.

SUNDAY MORNING—ST. LOUIS FOST-DISPATCH—JULY 23, 1899 - HEN the late E. J. Henley was last W in St. Louis playing in that admir- able and thrilling but too sombre, Play, “Deacon Brodie,” he confided to some of his friends his ambition to have Dickens’ great novel, “A Tale of Two Citles,”’ dram. atized and play the part of Sidney Carton, The throat trouble that eventually caused _his death was on him at the time and it ‘ increased in virulence until he was unfitted for hiseprofession; consequently he took no steps to further his desire to impersonate the finest martyr In English fiction. But now comes the announcement from New York that Breil and Falk “‘will feature & prominent player next season in ‘Destiny,’ & Gramatization of Dickens’ ‘A Tale of Two Cities’ by WiM F. Fage.”’ A good many of us will be eager to see Sage’s play and there will be great curiosity as to the identity of the promi- nent player who is to be featured. The book teems with striking characters that should work out well for stage purposes and if Mr. Sage is a workman worthy of his mate.- rials he has no doubt constructed a play that will attract attention, always provided it is properly cast. It seems that it would be easy to select a company that would fit, but such things look easier than they are, And speaking of new plays, it is interest- ing to note that Hal Reid has copyrighted one called “Old Hickory.” As Mr. Reid has manifested a penchant for Tennessee as the scene of h!s dramas it may be assumed that his new play will touch upon the life of Andrew Jackson when he was the best loved, most hated and best feared man in the Volunteer State. ‘The character of Vid Hickory might be worked by a deft hand into a very fine vehicle for So] Smith Rus- sell, but Mr, Reid’s playwriting gifts have never yet taken him into the paths of ar- tistic quiet that Mr. Russeli loves to tread, SO it isn't at all :ikely that this is a Rus- sell play. If Maud Lillian Berri achieves the meas- \re of success that her admirers believe she is capable of achieving she will be one of the few successful singers who never sang in the chorus nor appeared in an in- Significant role. Can it be possible that the circumstance that she began near the top makes her considerate and kind to her members of her profession who are near the bottom? They are telling a story of the hoax that some unknown ‘practical’ joker played on the manager of a circus at Co- penhagen. It appears that the manager received a telephone message one morning asking him to reserve a box for that night for the Crown Prince and his suite. Grati- fied at this honor, he caused the circus to be decorated elaborately for the occasion, and spread broadcast the news of the roy- al dignitary’s expected presence. The re- sult was an immense attendance in the evening. All eyes_were fixed on the box that the Crown Prince was to occupy. Min- utes flew by, an hour passed, and still His Majesty came not. The crowd grew im- patient; the manager distracted. Inquiry disclosed the fact that the Prince had gone on a yachting trip, or somewhere else, and had never intended to visit the circus. The manager, in a speech, laid these facts be- fore his now clamorous patrons, and con- ee a © '@) SO KLAR tT “Unerss é Spencer OrperaCo CAVE 9 fesped himself the victim of a joke. But the explanation didn’t go with the crowd. They were convinced that the Crown Prince story was merely a fairy tale concocted 10 make them give up their hard-earned marks, and to a man they left the place in high dudgeon. Next morning they heaped the agony on the unfortunate man- ager by serving him with some 2500 sults for damages. Whether he was mulcted in any or all of them has not been reported. Business appeared to be good at all the summer theaters last week. St. Louis has the summer garden habit in pronounced form and the profits of some of the open air resorts will probably exceed what some of the regular houses made last season. fe St. Louls on the Roof Garden of the Union Trust Building, Josephine Sa- bol is welcomed to summer amusement re- sorts by managers and their audiences. Year after year the French soubrette’s en- during qualities are tested and not ‘found wanting. We will have her at Forest Park Highlands this week, for Col. Hopkins knows that she has many friends. Es- meralda, a clever little woman, who ie famed for her high-class musical act on the tight wire, will be Miss Sabel’s rival. There will be three other vocalists, the Griffin sisters, who do clever vaudeville work with voices that are said to be re- OFFERINGS FOR THE WEEK.

Mazzus and Mazett, a troupe of gymnasts, will do their ludicrous ‘‘bag- gage car’ act. The Borain brothers will present a sketch in which they figure as dancing demons, and Marsh and Sartel’s comedy sketch is one of the entertaining things in an olio. The La Page sisters, who are down on the programme for songé and dances, are known as the phenomenal change artists. Little Clayto and Clarice did so well a week ago that they were re-engaged. They will be heard in new songs, of which these clever little artists have a large stock. The concerts by the Pavilion Orchestra, under the direction of Frank M. Pierce, are a pleasant feature of the Highlands’ daily routine. The fourth week of Deming & McCor- mack’s season at Koerner’s Garden will be inaugurated this afternoon, An _ original first part will be presented, The stage will be set to represent a lawn; garden chairs and settées will be scattered about, Chinese lanterns will be festooned among the trees markable. and in the scenery. The minstrels will be attired in lawn tennis and golf costumes, amd an air of easy freedom will characterize the entire first part. This will be Arthur Deming’s last week this season at the gar- den. The minstrels will continue indefinitely but Mr, Deming is compelled to leave next Sunday night to commence rehearsals in New York with his road show for the win- ter season. For his final performances in addition to his new song, “My Savannah Girl,”’ he will sing “I Want My Black Baby Back”’ and “My Ann Elizer.”” Dan Allman will sing “I’m Living Easy” and will re- peat “Hot Stuff.”’ George Knight and Billy Estep promise a budget of new songs and jokes. The ranks of the comedians will be reinforced by Harry Belmont and John Do- reriety. Joseph F. Brockel will sing ‘The Magic Cup,”’ and James McNulty “The Queen of the Ball.” The members of the Manhattan Quartette will hawe new songs. The baton twirling of Master Graman will remain a feature of the first part. Ed A. McCormack will continue to preside over the circle or rather, lawn party, this week. The list of vaudeville includes Belmont and Doreriety in black face singing and danc- ing sketch. La Belle Franklin dancer; Rich- ards and Guhl, in a German dialect comedy sketch; the Hilder Sisters will be seen in a musical act. The performance will close with the one-act black face comedy in which all the company wi!l participate en- titled “‘A Stranger in the West.” Hughey Dougherty comes to the Sub- urban this week. Three weeks ago, when Manager Gumpertz engaged him, he wired back: “Send me all of the daily papers from now until I open.’’ Familiarity with local affairs is said to be the secret of Dougherty’s success. He gets most of his fun out of the topics of.the day, and par- ticularly those of interest in the community in which he is playing. When one remem- bers that Dougherty is over 60 years ef age his ambition and energy in the matter of preparation seem remarkable. For 45 yearg he has held this own in the profession. He has kept pace with the times and with the scores of young men who have entered the business, flourished for a time and then dropped out. There is nothing particularly brilian@ about him, but he is sincere in his efforts to please and may be relied wpon for material that is new and original—much more than can be said for other minstrél comedians, As for his singing—he cannot sing a note, but his attempts are funny. Fred Warren will sit on the end opposite him and Montgomery and Stone will occupy the inside positions. They will introduce new songs and dances. Dan Quinlan con- tinues as the interlocutor, Ferdinand Ash- bey and Al Blanchard sing the ballads. The vaudeville olio includes Lina and Vina, the Century Comedy Four and Dixon, Bowers and Dixon, ‘“The Three Rubes;"” Mont- gomery and Stone will do a down South cakewalk specialty. To-night the Spencer Opera Co. will enter on the sixth week of ite season at Uhrig’s Cave and present Planquette’s popular opera, ‘The Chimes of Normandy.” Maud Lillian Berri has become a fad in St. Louls, and box parties are nightly in evidence who come to pay tribute to the fair Cali- fornian. Miss Berri will. sing the role of Serpolette in ‘“‘The Chimes” and ghould sing it well, Gertrude Lodge will be the Ger- maine; William Stephens, Greincheux; Charles Hawiey, Henri; Edward Webb, Gaspard; William Steigér, the bailee, and Carl King the notary. “The Taming of the Shrew’’ will be pro- duced at Olympia Park this week. Law- rence Hanley has the part of Petruchio. Miss Reed will be seen as Katharine, Ed- mund D. Lyons is down for Grumio and long time. Hugh Ford for Baptista Minola, father to Katharine and Bianca. Miss Jessie Izctt will appear to advantage as the page Bion- dello. Earle Sterling is cast as Lucentio ‘and Lester Gruner as Hortensio. Miss Isa- bel O’Madigan will be the Bianca. Fred Hallen and Mollie Fuller will be the leading vaudeville attraction at Ern- est’s Pavilion, Mannion Park, this week. Ernest's Minstrels, including Billy Rice, Charles M. Ernest, “‘Fatty’’ Stewart, ‘Tom Mack and Charles Kent, will introtiuce new songs and jokes. RTHUR DDHMING its of the opinion A that there will be a big revival of in- terest in minstrelsy on the part of the theater-going public next season. “For nearly ten years minstrelsy has been almost dead,’ ’says he. “During the past five or six years the few companies that have been on the road, with one or two exceptions, have made scarcely their expenses. When this form of entertain- ment was the reigning fad it was over- worked. It was a case of killing the goose that laid the golden egg. The public be- came. weary of ‘too much black face busl- ness. Minstrel shows followed minstrel shows everywhere in the country, until it began to look as though there would be nothing but black-face enteretainers left in the business. The public became tired of this monotony, and, although the man- agers tried various expedients to win back their lost prestige, minstrelsy was killed for the time being, and only during the last season has there been any eign of a re- vival. “I believe that the theater-going public wants more of minstrels, and that the com- ing season will be a golden one for the companies on the road. Last year the minstrels did better than they had flor a This year more companies are going out, and there will be buginess enough for all of them. : “T attribute this revival in interest in the black-face circle largely to the sum- mer gardens. Half the summer gardens in the United States are offering minstrels as their stock entertadnment, and wherever it has been presented it has always become popular. Just look at the situation here in St. Louis, and you will see how the the- ater-going public ‘takes’ to the minstrels. The summer gardens have made the min- strels popular once again; they have given individuals a chance to win a reputation that they would otherwise perhaps never have received, and the result is good bus}. ness for the traveling companies. ‘This is going to be a big season for the minstrels and those who are in on the ground floor are going to make some money.”’ Notes of the Stage. At the June meeting of the Actors’ So- ciety of America Sir Henry Irving was elected an honorary member. President F. F. Mackay has received from the English actor a letter acknowledging notice of his election, and expressing his pride in the distinction conferred upon him by the go- clety. “The Floor Walkers” is the title of Ward and Vokes’ new vehicle for next season. In a condensed form it was presented at the Great Northern Theater, Chicago, dur- ing the spring run of these comedians there. Lucy Daly, George Sidney and Will West are among the principals engaged. Fitz and Webster are negotiating for a play which they intend to produce the pres- ent season under the title of “Capt. Drey- fus.’’ The play is to be founded on the trial and imprisonment of the French officer and those who have been conspicuous in the incident are to be characters. Julia Arthur’s English adaptation of Master Walter Bennett, a’ St. Louis lad with a fine sopraho voice, who has been booked for eight weeks in vaudeville. ‘Plus Que Reine’ will be made by Charles Frederic Nirdlinger and Charles Henry Meitzer. Mr. Meltzer, by the way, gave a private reading the other day of his adaptation of Hauptmann’s “The Sunken Bell,’’ made for E. H. Sothern. Harry Burkhardt is rapidly recovering from the accident which befell him during a performance of “‘Aristocracy”’ at the Co- lumbia Theater, Washington, D. C., recent- ly. Mr, Burkhardt left for his home, at Worcester, Mass., last Wednesday, and will spend the,summer there. Lucas D’Oyly Carte, son of Manager D'Oyly Carte, of the Savoy Theater, Lon- don, has been appointed private secretary to the Lord Chief Justice on the Vene- zuela Arbitration, and assistant secrétary of the Arbitration Tribunal in Parts. Young Carte is a barrister. Edward D'Oize has been re-engaged for leading business with the Lyceum compa- ny, which is to make a tour of Canada from Halifax to Vancouver. The company will present a Shakspearean repertoire, togeth- er with some of the best known stock com- pany plays. During her American engagement next season, under the management of Gustav Amberg, Marie Geistinger will be seen in drama instead of comedy. Her repertoire will include ‘*Adrienne Lecouvreur,” ‘‘Marie Stuart,” “Deborah” and “Graf Essex.” Fannie Ward, with 327% votes, was the leader in the London Pelican's ‘Smartest Lady’’ competition. Edna May was 2th with 892 votes, Lady Francis Hope (May Yohe) had 10, Mrs. James Brown Potter 9 and Proto, the dancer, 7. Madame Rejane is going to present in Paris-an adaptation of Arthur W.

A year ago he made a thousand-mile trip on the bottom of Chesapeake Bay in his first submarine beat. bat was the frat long-distance voyage in @ submarine boat in the world's history. It was a realization in part of the French novelist Jules Verne's Nuutilus described in his famous book, *“‘Iwenty Thousanil Leagues Under the Sea.”’ Four months ago he began to rebuild his boat and make it an ocean-going craft, the like of which no marine architect had dreamed of before, She is a atrange looking object, the lower part of her hull shaped like a fish, and the upper part like the deck and turret of a warship. This new submarine boat was made by ecutiing the old Argonaut in two, using the two parts as bow and stern, building an en- tirely. new hull between and joining them — File eaaiven Sho boat twice as long . § bs CROSS the Atlantic on the bottom new submarine boat, the Way Across steam yacht or light gunboat above the water line. Above all towers her big turret amidship, This looks as if it might contain the for- midable guns of a monitor. But Its real use is for entrance irto the ship, and for the pilot’s wheel and outlook. It is buflt solidly of half-inoh steel plates in order to resist the tremendous pressure of the water at great depths. The ugly looking iron nose of the boat, just below the water line looks like a war- sh'p’s ramming head, But tnat, too, is M $- ieading. It is a port hole protected by inch thick glass, through which the vcssél’s searchlight will sight her way among the wrecks and ro>ks on the bottom of the sea. On either side of this are two glistening greenish eyes, as big as a man’s head. These also are glass port holes, throdgh which the man on the lower ouUook can keep a watch of things on woth sides of the vessel. As to the motive power, the Argonaut has, besides her whic nee, eae > ARRETA the Atlantic. fish's fin. At the stern is a third wheel, which acts also as a rudder. When the submarine boat settles down upon the bottom of the ocean the forward wheels are dropped down and used for driving wheels. In this way the vessel can race along at greater speed than when on the surface,of the water, The Argonaut’s course across the Atlan- tic:-has not yet been mapped out in detail. It will take considerable study of ocean charts to do this. She will naturally keep as much as possible in shallow water. Where the ocean’s floor sings to a mile or two below the water's surface, not even the Argonaut’s steel shell could withstand the tremendous pressure of the water above weighing dewn like a mountain over her. For the firs@ part of the trip across, the submarine voyagers will probably follow theLong Island and New England coast line, keeping only a few miles away from shore. The hard sand bottom of the ocean along the coast makes a splendid speeding ground for a craft like the Argonaut, She can drop her wheels down upon the bottom and scorch along "1 an automobile on h the sea- ing sand bars and wrec ked. low water of ee ee ant oe A good part of the way along the coast | the Argonaut may be only one or two hun- dred feet below the surface. By day the water at this shallow depth will be lighted up to a beautiful pale green. They may come upon the big passenger steamship Portland that went down off Cape Cod last winter, carrying hundreds of people and a valuable cargo to the bot- tom. The Argonaut will continue northward, skirtink the New England and Nova Sco- tia Coaste, and pass directly through the graveyard of ships off Sable Island, where 0 vessels have been caught in its shift- Here is where the big French liner La Bourgogne went down a year ago last Fourth of July in a fog in collision with the Cromartyshire, when 600 lives and vast treasure were lost. The Argonaut may be hauled to while her searchlight brings into view all the gloomy objects and surroundings of that marihe graveyard. Divers will go out and make a survey of the location with a view to future wrecking operations. From this point clear across the shal- wrecks of every sort, old war frigates, fish- ing craft of every e6ort, and modern steamships. Those will be scenes that no transatlantic voyagers have ever seen be- fore or scarcely dreamed of. Beyond the Grand Banks the bottom of the ocean falls away to a depth of 3000. to 10,000 feet below the water’s surface, Thie part of the bottom of the sea is known as the Cable Plateau, owing to the cables that use it for a bed. The Argonaut will not attempt to follow the ocean’s floor down to those great depths. She will rise and sail on the sur- face for 13800 miles or more. Upon reaching the shallow water sur- rounding the British Isles the Argonaut will again dive. In this way she will avold the dangers of coastwise shipping and storme—and have plenty of sea room, She will proably pass down through the Irish Sea to Liverpool. When she bobs up at the docks tn that great shipping port she may be able to tell the British salts some- thing they do not know about their own coast line. The interior arrangements of t Argo- naut for her transatlantic trip wifl be al- most as comfortable as on a steam yacht, and vastly more novel and interesting. In the bow will be the observation room, where the traveler may sit with the regular lookout, and glance ahead along the searchlight’s path on the sea bottom. He will see the waving deep sea plants, schools of fishes through which the Argo- naut will be ploughing her way, or he may be startled by the big black hull of @~ wreck looming up ahead.

LOUIS POST-DISPATCH—JULY 23; 1899 REAL TO THE MINDS OF CHILDHOOD. Fancies Which Little Ones Cannot Separate From Actualities and Why They Seem Inclined to Falsehood. OUIBE has a Httle boy named Johnny, Louise is a diminutive lady, 4 years old, who lives on Delmar boule- yard. Johnny is her dream child. Mrs. Pi- per’s control, Dr. Phinuilt, is not half so wonderful as this dream child. He is a mis- chievous boy, not above telling little white lies and slipping off fishing before his moth- er gets up in the morning. Such early hours invariably result in his catching a bad cold and keeping the nursegirl awake next night with his croupy cough. It was all an account of one of these es- capades that Johnny’s existence first be- came known, about a year ago. It was well understood about the house that Jane, the second girl, had a boy named Johnny at home. Jane's boy Johnny had a peculiar fascination for little Miss Louise. She had never seen him, but she used to ask Jane all sorts of leading questions as to where her boy Johnny came frem, how long he was likely to stuy on this carth, and wheth- er his general health was good. One even- ing, after dinner, Louise’s Aunt Allic was sitting out on the front porch, when Louise came out, looking quite grave. “What's the matter with cur little girl?’ asked Aunt Allie as the child cuddled down in her lap. “I dust had to pank Johnny—awful hard,” she replied. “But you mustn’t strike Jane’s boy, monstrated the aunt. re- “No, die my Johnny. Don't you know Johnny ?’’ And then followed a logical, circumstan- tial story of how Johnny had slipped out without saying a word to his mother, and had gone down to South Park. The incor- rigible youngster there got into a park boat, rowed out into the middle of a lagoon with a man, and had fallen overbcard, and ‘“‘dot his feets all wet.” The consequence was that the little moth- er, sorely against her feelings and only for the sake of discipline, had given her suppo- sititious Johnny a second, but imaginary spanking. He had been pvt to bed and dosed all day with flaxseed tea to prevent a re- currence of croup, to which he was subject. Since that day Louise's “Johnny” has be- come a member of the family. He gives his small mother a world of trouble, but is a great deal of company. Johnny is a puzzle to street car conduciors. “Oo mus’ he’p Johnny cn first,’’ Louise adjures the trainmen, and not an inch will she budge from the pavement until some- body has gene through the motions of put- ting her imaginary baby on the car. Space must be kept for the boy, and nothing makes Louise 30 angry us to have folks seat themselves in the place she has re- served for her dream cnild. Finally she was toid that it is customary for ladies to have their children stand up in a crowded car, since they pay no fare. Next day she gravely remarked to a fat woman who got on the car: ‘“'ittle boys pay no fare, and so you take Johnny’s seat. John- ny, stand up, now; I hold you all wite.” Louise’s dream child is only one of a queer little troop of men, women and chil- dren who inhabit juvenile fancy. Only of late years has an attempt been made to study and classify and analyze the imag- inary characters with which children popu- late their small world. Investigation by psychological students shows that nearly all children confuse fact and fancy. They are unabie to tell the difference between the imaginary and the real. Most middle- aged .people can recollect distinctly the trouble they got into very early by telling “stories.’” In the period between 3 and 8 years of age the imagination is developed excessively in proportion to other quatities of mind. In some children this faculty is more extraordinari.y developed than in oth- ers. They live in an unreal world. They see and hear things which have no exist- ence. This phenomena of chiid life is now recognized by experts, though probably for many years children will be dis- ciplined for having lively imaginations. For example, Louise’s little brother at 4 years o'd was addicted to hunting bears and having various exciting contests with wild beasts. His father began to be un- easy for fear the child would grow up an unconscionable prevaricator. One day George announced that he had had a terri- ble meeting with a grizzly bear in the park. “I didn’t shooted dis one, papa,”’ he ex- repiy. The remarkable incidénts related to would fill a book. plained, gleefully. “I caught him alive and brought him home.”’ : “Where is he?’ demanded Georges father, determined to run this particular spook to earth. “He's tied out in the back yard,” George announced, cheerfully. “Well, put your hat on and take papa out to see him.” George complied very willingly, running on ahead and giving other interesting de tails of the capture as they walked. Sure enough, of course, no grizzly bear was to be seen. George's goat, the fiercest animal in sight, was placidly eating up a few tin cans. George’s father looked sternly at the young hunter. The boy's eyes dilated in evident astonishment. He gazed at the garden, at the sky, all around. : “Well, I ‘clare, he’s got away,” George ejaculated ‘at last. Two little girls who live next door to George and Louise have great times visit- ing and receiving visits from ‘*Mrs. Smith’”’ and “Mrs. Brown.” Both of these ladies are absolutely real to the children. “Mrs. Smith” usually wears a purple velvet dress, SS TENE % ae S ea: 5 Me apeeee 2 * po oN = a “ eS aEE RE RR ae ROE heed, * ooh as seh es = a. my F : : ?

In 1801 Francois, Marquis de Fontenelle, came from France to Louisiana in company with a sister, Madame Merlier. They be- longed to a family of the French nobility. Francois settled on a plantation a short distance below New Orleans, where sev- eral ch‘ldren were born to them, and the two elder ones, Lucien and Amalie, were sent to their aunt, Madame Merlier, in New Orleans to be educated. While there an uprising of the waters of the Mississippi drowned the whole family. remaining at the plantat'on, leaving Lucien and Amalie to be brought up by their aunt, a stern and severe aristocrat. Lucien was placed in a banking house when about 16, but not agreeing with his aunt, he became so incensed that telling his old colored nurse that he was going out West among the Indians, he left in the me night and for twenty years nothing was heard from him He made his way to St. Louls, then the outpost of civilization, the point from which went all the adventurous souls up the great rivers and into the unknown land of the red men. How long he stayed here is not known, but he became acquainted with the old French families, especially the Chouteaus, while here. He also became im- bued with the idea of journeyi farther west, into the unknown lands of rt hunter and the ‘trapper. He joined the Great American Fur Com- pany, and lived the varied life of prairie and mountain from the Mississippi River to the Pacific Ocean, and northward to IHiudson Bay, at last settling at a po-nt called by some enthusiastic Frenchman ‘Bellevue.”’ ‘“‘Beautiful View,’’ just below which the waters of the Platte joined those of the Missouri. There he was married by Father De Smet to Me-um-ba-ne, “The Sun,’ daugh- ter of the chief of the Omahas, or “the tribe farthest up the river,’ and to them { N CHILD ai iii PTETTD | evened tA ~ * h, + S A ? . x4 a2 : » aS Ri. ye . : * seers eee " ~ "wie a . * : . oe Ge. a . at ¥ ee es " “; se ; ns | to.d were born five children, Logan, Albert, Tecumseh, Henry and Susan. After twenty years of this life Lucien Fontenelle, having made plenty of money in his trading post, and remembering the days of his childhood and his family, de- termined to go back to New Orleans and see if they still remembered him. He found Amalie married to Judge Lockett, and had a hard time convincing her of his identity. After a brief visit he returned to Bellevue and never again did he leave there. His three oldest boys he sent to St. Louis to school during his lifetime, and had he lived all his children would have had the best educational advantages of that time, but he died a few years after this visit to New Orleans. Tecumseh, Henry and Sarah were sent after his death to the Shawnee Indian Mission Schoo], near Kansas City, where they stayed about two years. Because he became involved in an altercation with another youth, the teacher punished Henry and he ran away, finally wandertng to Kansas City, where lived his father’s old partner, Mr. Dripps. One day Mrs. Cho- teau of St. Louis, who was visiting there, h'm that his brother Logan was in St. Leuls, but would return to Kansas City soon. Henry mpt Logan and they re- turned to Bellevue together. In Bellevue Henry worked as a ferryman and United States interpreter, and married his w.fe. She was the nieee of Whiteman chef of the Skeede Indians, but her father was a White man, so she, like her husband, was a half-breed. Logan Fonte- ne le, who had been chosen chief of the iWmahas, was killed soon after this, and the tribe removed to its reservation in the northern part of the State of Nebraska, and there Henry lived until h's death. A few Years later a nephew of his, a grand. son of Ama.le Lockett, came west with a romantic desire to hunt up hts relatives, and finality married Henry’s daughter, Emily, a beautiful, bright girl. She died a few years ago with consumption. Two chiidren yet survive, the ony ones who st.ll bear the name of Fontenelie, Albert, Tecumseh ai.d Logan, having left daughters ony. The influence of herecity was marked ia the ¢ase of Henry Fontenetle, and in af the family. While h's Life had been passed and largely among the on the frontier, Ind.ans, his manner was that of a gentle. man of the old French regime. He re ceived his guests with a quiet dignity and grace, and expressed himse:f well and with inte l.wence, although all h's education wag obtained in the two years he spent at the mission school. That his great grandfather was the Marquis de Fontelle, that his cousins. the Merliers of Havre, are the possessors of fine estates and belong to the nobility, and that his family are re- lated to Pierre Soule, Judge Lockett, and other prom'nent men of New Orleans, one could well believe as they talked with the quiet, unaffected courtly man, who softened the haughty dignity of his Indian race by the suavity and easy grace of the polished Frenchman. His daughter Emily had all the sprightly vivacity of her French an- cestry, with the marked features of the SIGNIFICANCE : OF MOLES you have missed much, for each —— .. [) see ever study ‘“‘moleology?”’ Tren | mo.e on the human body has its own significance, depending upon its size, color and location. Here are some of the inter- magicians: or on the right temple, signifies sudden wealth and honors, and one on the right eyebrow marriage with a person of congid- erable fortune and an amiable dispositipn; but a mole on the left of either of these places is a sign that the person will be fire- quently near the best of luck, but by some unfortunate chain of circumetances will jin- variably meet with disappointment befpbre attaining it. | A mole on either cheek foretells that the perscen will never rise above the mediocre in fame or fortune, although he will never fall into poverty, and one that is placed on the outside corner of either eye denotes that the bearer thereof will be in danger of violent death. A mole vn the nose gives success in busi- ness and especially in undertakings of a speculative or gambling nature; on either lip it is the sure indication of an epicure; on the chin it denotesS prosperity and the esteem of one’s friends, and on the throat that the person will become rich by miar- riage. | In spite of the oid rhyme a mole on the neck does not bring money py the peck, but shows that the person who carries this mark through life will narrowly escape death by drowning or suffocation, but will afterwards rise to great influence and weaith through an inheritance, A mole on the right breast denotes expos- ure to accidents of all Kinds, but no serious injury; on the left breast, a happy but not rich marriage; on the chest, good health and medium fortune through life; one just over the heart shows a man will be of/an affectionate disposition, but fickle, fond! of traveling and adventure, and not to/|be greatly depended upon; in a lady this |in- dicates that she will be sincere in her at- tachments and have a large family. A mole on the right side, over the ribs, denotes a coward and a person of a dull, etupid mind; on the abdomen it indicates sloth, gluttony, selfishness and carelessness in dress. A mole on either hip foretells a family of healthy, bright children, who wiil be a joy and comfort to their parents; one cn the right thigh, a calm, uneventful life; one on the left thigh, much suffering from poverty and want of friends, as also by the jealousy and injustice of others; on the right knee brings a good partner for life, with few disappointments, and on the left knee, a certain amount of suffering caused by one’s own foolish conduct. A mole on elther ieg below the knee shows that the person is indolent, thought- less and indifferent to the welfare of oth- ers, and one cn either ankle denotes in a man an inclination to dandyism and fop- pishness; and in a lady a courageous, act- ive nature, with a capacity for speaking her own mind. We must not forget also the shape and color of the moles, because each wiil add polations placed upon their meaning by old A moie on the right side of the forehead, | to or diminish the force of the indication. | — f Mir. @ OTs" eTelét. \ ae « * 0.9191°.219 @ © EEE ele .@)~ @.2) a Re AK oX +" Bae aoe Ee ge ae ; es = a> “a " re S x % 7 4 Le % % %, LCE Pega awe lol , are ar, : : § : skin food.
