Those who are famiilar with the strange case of Tobe McDaniel as told in the Sun- day Post-Dispatch several weeks ago, be- lieve Sheriff Cantreil has made a mistake in his man. McDaniel has been living at Japan, in Franklin County, for nine years, and his presence there wus Known to the inhabi- tants for miles around. They knew also the history of his case, for he made no uttempt to conceal it and o®en told fe Story to intimate friends, whe repes it to others. McDaniel i¢ a blacksmith, and has been running a shop at Japan during his resi- dence there. welve years ago he killed Kivetts at a house-ralsing celebration in Texas County. There had been bad blood / between the men, and the murder was the outcome of it. McDan.el was arrested, but escaped from jail while awaiting trial, A woman of the county with whom he had fallen in jiove followed him and the two traveled over the West and South- west. She was an expert frontierswoman, and knew how to use.a gun. Both were known to be desperate. She usually wore man’g clothing. After two years of this wandering Mc- Daniel was captured in the Cherokee Strip. He was tried and convicted of murder in the first degree, and sentenced to be hanged The day before the date of his he escaped from jail and went to Japan. He concealed himself for a time, but was nally joined by the woman, and he then started a blacksmith shop. They were mar- ried, and continued to live in the little town, and were living there two months ago. Everybody in the neighborhood knew McDaniel’s history, and it wae generally thought that the Texas County authori- ties knew his whereabouts, but were not interested sufficiently to make any at- tempt to capture him. It is thought that McDaniel may have gone into Ililinois after the publication of his story In the Sunday Post-Dispatch, in order to evade the possibility of arrest, and that while there he got into trouble which landed him in the Belleville Jail. It ‘ie thought strange, however, that after he had iived openly during so many years in Franklin County, which is less than © miles from Texas County, the sheriff of the latter gry? should suddenly become possessed of a desire to arrest him. While in St. Louis Sher ff Cantrell held a long conference with Chief Campbell about the case, COOL WAVE IS NOT COMING ‘Dr. Hyatt Has Not Given Up Hope, but He Admits That the Weath- er Is Unscttled. Dr. R. J. Hyatt, official weather forecast- er, is very much disgusted with the.freaks the weather is playing. He says all signs are failing now, and that it is impossible | to tell one hour what it is going to do the next. He has concluded, however, that his ,cold wave will not reach here for several | ays. “I feel pretty safe in saying that it will continue fair and warmer through Sun- day,” he said. “It should*have rained here Thursday. Everything indicated it and it was raining all around us. But the condl- tions changed very rapidly, and there was s00n not a vestige of rain Rain is not falling anywhere in the United States to-day—a condition that is remark- able. “My cold wave depended on the rain and when that failed it could not break through the barrier of heat from which St. Louisans are suffering now. But there was a slight | drop in the temperature anyway—enough to make sleeping comfortable. I don't think it will get much warmer but I am afraid we are in for a good siege.’’ LONDON IS SWELTERING NOW Hottest Day of the Year, With Many Prostrations and Mercury at Ninety.

Yer- ger claims not to know whefe his wife is, and in his petition alleges that she is a non- resident of the State. _The husband's suit is docketed for the September term of the Cirevit Court at In- dependence, and under the ordinary course of events should go to trial ahead of the suit of his wife, which is docketed for the vareeet term ol the Circuit Court at Boon- Vilie.

This money was nev- er collected, but about six somal ago the suit was compromised by Mr. van Schaack, or. settling $15,000 on her only son, Cal- n vin. Shortly after this Mrs. van Schaack cre- ated a sensation by a brief appearance On the variety stage, and she made a further bid for notoriety last January by assert- ing that the mad of the Russian Countess Soucheffsky had attempted to poison Ner. Mrs. van Schaack said to-day that her husband will lose a legacy of $55,000 by re- turning to her. By his mother’s will he wag to receive this amount, conditional on remaining separated from his wife. Mrs. Van Schaack was Miss Flora LIl- lian Palmer.

She is said to have led Jo?in Van ‘Schaack a merry race along the mat- rimonial highway.

Mven the judges were unab-e to sup- ress a smile as they gazed on M. Bertil- on's stage properties strewed over half the platform. A table was brought in, upon which the plans he was using could be placed. The witness began by saying that only intelligent men could follow his ex- planations. The court was soon half emp- tled, as the audience, after smiling audi- bly, at his extraordinary words and ex- pressions, became bored and went out. M. Bertillon commenced his deposition at 8:30 a. m. It, occuped the whole of the session and will, perhaps, occupy a good part of to-morrow’'s session. The courtroom presented a curious scene while M. Bertillon, whom the Dreyfusarce, in thelr most indulgent moments, describe ag a “dangerous maniac,” spent the three remaining hours of the session in explain- ing, in unintellig ble terms, his ‘infallible em, of proving Dreyfus was the au- thor of the bordereau. The majority of the public, however, utterly unable to com- peshend M. Bertillon’s theories, had left he courtroo Even “La Dame Blanche” abandoned st. In the meantime, M. Bertillon, with ges- tures, and in the shrill, pitched voice of a& quack at a country fair, continued his monologue, producing. every m.nute some fresh paper covered with wonderful hiero- glyphics, copies of which he presented to the judges, who, with gn expression of owl-like wisdom, carefully examined them. - i ah ons TRAY nee ee: NGO- | bert declared his conviction that the by\r- tracing jor ——— ' h sent , summons of the Minister of War, Gen. de —s TO COURT.

Then he theatrically cleared the desk attached to the witness bar, drew his chair nearer, deposited his high hat on the floor and sitting down, began copying the berdereau. The audience watched him, bent over the desk, busily drawing letters, the judges gazing at him, until.at the end of 10 minutes, the people and the judges hecame restiessly impatient and Col. Jou- aust remarked that it was not necessary to copy the whole bordereau and that a few lines would suffice. A few mirutes later M. Bertillon rose, strode to the judges’ table and laid befove them his copy. The judges, counsel, government commissary, Maj. Car- riere, and the clerk of the court clustered around in one group, eager to see the re- sult.

Scheurer-Kestner, the former Vice-President of the Senate, who was prominent in obtaining a revision of the Dreyfus case. During this discussion Savignaud protested that he had been con- founded with a bandsman of the same naMe who had a bad character. A former perpeass, who was at one time employed in the War Office, testified to seeing Dreyf¥ej copying the list of railroad stations m odin the plan of mobiliza- tion, to which-Dreyfus repl.ed: “It is true; butt copied the list by order of Capt. Besse.”” (Sensation.) Handwriting Expert Says Did Not Write the Bordereau. The evidence of the handwriting experts followed. , M. Gobert, after testifying to facts pub- lished April 22 and April 24, vehemently protested against the insinuation that he was an interested witness. He referred to he 30 years of services, during which he had reported on thousands of documents, and added, visibly affected: “I protest against the term “interested expert,” adding, turning towards the pris- oner: “After all I have no right to complain, when I look at this unfortunate man now before you.” (Great sensation.) The court closely followed M. Gobert’s exhaustive story of his examination of the bordereau and his interview with Gens. Mercier, De Boisdeffre and Gonse. M. Gobert asserted that the handwriting of the bordereau was natural and fluent, but that it was almost illegible, whereas, Dreyfus, even when writing rapidly, al- ways wrote most legibly. The witness asked Gen. Gonse if an en- velope accompanied the bordereau, as he, M: Gobert, wished to see what the writer's careful calligraphy was like, explaining that the address of a letter is always in a firm- er hand than its contents. Gen. Gonse refused the request on the ground that the witness mast not know the name of the addressee. The General also refused to al- low the bordereau to be photographed, al- leging that if the War Office photographers were allowed to photograph it all Paris would be acquainted with the bordereau the next day. Thereupon, the witness remarked: ‘Gen. Gonse, this is a very interesting confes- s:on,”’ M. Gobert then suggested that the work be intrusted to the prefecture of police, where M, Bertillon is the photographer. Until then, the witnees also said, he had never heard of M. Bertillon as a handwrit- ing expert, saying he became an expert for this special oecasion, when he was called in the War Office. Gen. Gonse, it appears from the testi- mony, was greatly enraged when he learned of the result of M: Gobert’s examination of the bordereau and visited the expert re- aac a The latter. always insisted on earning the name of the suspect. “It was not proper,’ said M.

Go- bert had the malicious sat'sfaction of tell- ing Gen. Gonse the name of the officer they wanted to arrest. It was after M. Gobert had refused to incriminate Dreyfus that M. Bertillon was entrusted with the examination of the bor- deredu, and after few hours’ study M. Ber- tillon positively attributed the bordereau to Dreyfus. From that time forward M.

Gonse asked permission to question M. Gobert, and said: “In what army list did you look for the handwriting of Drey- fus?’’ M. Gobert: I used the list which is gen- erally kept in business houses. The General pointed out that this list did not give the information claimed by M. Gobert. The latter maintained that he had stated nothing but the pure and simple truth. Gen. Gonse having alluded to certain un- desirable acquaintances formed by M. Go- bert, the latter replied, amid a sensation in court: “Il emphatically protest against the insinuations of Gen. Gonse. There is not a single word of truth in what he says,”’ here was a further dispute between Gen. Gonse and M. Gobert over circum- stances in connection with the latter’s ex- amination of the bordereau. M. Gobert said that Col. D’Aboville was present, but the Colonel promptly advanced and said he had never seen M. Gobert before to-day, adding: “If M. Gobert’s other recollections are as exact as this the court will draw its own conclusions. Dreyfus here declared in the most posi+ tive manner that he had never been at the Bank of France, where M. Gobert was employed, or had relations with any one there. The prisoner asserted that his sole desire was to know the truth. He ad- mitted he had been gngaged in various financial operations, but said he had never asked either for written or verbal informa- tion from the Bank of France. Bertillon Undertakes to Demonstrate Dreyfus’ Guilt. Phere was a general movement of curi- osity when M. Bertillon, the well-known anthropometrist (or specialist in the mea- surement of the human body), was called, no more of the Dreyfus case. He was not asked to sult a report, but described to the then Minister of Justice, M. Guerin, the circumstances in the case. “M. Guerin,’ continued the witness, ‘‘in- timated that these were soldiers’ affairs,” which did not concern him as chief. of the oo Mme. Dreyfus.” The specialist then out how he found the same Dreyfus’ handwriting '!n the letters of other give a long and and many of the audience left the court. cryptographic remark, enunciated by M. Bertillon in loud tones: *“‘We clearly have before us a fabricated document. the vther, with a divergence of 1.25 m metres and 2.25 millimetres. nomenon which is unnatural.’’ M. Labori watched the spectalist for a few moments and then returned to seat, holding up both hands and exclaim- ing: “It is most extraordinary.”’ {. Bertillon continued his explanations and caused such a whirl in the brains of his hearers that Col. Jouaust finally re- marked: “We must have a few minutes’ rest.’’ When the session of the court was re- sumeu, M. Bertillon made further dem- onstrations. He compared words of the bor- dereau with words in the documents. Leaning on the judges’ bench he placed the entire bordereau over a graphic canvas and proceeded to show that by doting so Dreyfus succeeded in formulating the prin- cipal rules which served to guide him in making his joining marks, remarking that any copyist possessing a key to these rules could learn to replace the entire bordereau, The witness, continuing, proceeded to demonstrate the practicability of this. “When persons are accused,’’ he said, “it is not sufficient to meet the charge with denials, but it is necessary to prove that they have not done what they are charged with. “In this case the handwriting was dis- guised There is, therefore, presumptive proof that the prisoner is gullty.’’ After this, M. Bert!llon pointed out that five questions in the bordereau were traced in the same manner and added: “I had reached this point in my experi- ments when I was summoned to the Cherche Midi Prison by Maj. d’Ormes_he- ville. The Major explained that he wished my personal opinion on cryptographic méth- ods, sympathetic inks, etc., which might help the family of Dreyfus in correspond- ing with him. The request was partly due to the fact that a number of letters ad- dressed to the prisoner by his family had been received by the offictals. ‘‘During the course of the interview, Maj. d’Ormescheville produced one of these hag ters. I had hardly cast my eyes on it when I was astounded to notice the same kind of a negative ‘‘o’’ with which I had been so struck.

" THE BEEF TRUST, New York Butchers Raising a $5,000,000 Fund. PRICES TO BE CUT IN HALF. WEALTHY CATTLE GROWERS WILL HELP RETAILERS. Stock Raisers Complain That They Get No Share in the Profits Made by the Combine Since the Era of High Prices. NEW YuRK, Aug. 2%.—The Pkecutive Committee of the Retail Butchers’ Protec- tive Aasociation met last night to consider means to fight the Chicago wholesalers. They decided to recommend the raising of @ fund of $5,000,000. Of this sum $3,000,000 is to be raised by the retailers themselves and $2,000,000 by popular subscription at $1 @ share, with a maximum holding by any one person of 2 shares. When the com- mittee went into session it had pledged Subscriptions of $700,000. When it had fin- ished this had been increased to $1,000,000. President Wagner said there was no doubt that the entire $3,000,000 will be quickly raised by the retailers in New York City alone. The remaining $2,000,000 it is intend- ed to dispose of to customers, small mer- chants, labor organizations and others who are opposed to trusts. Some of the retailers ave aS many as 50 customers and many of these have alreacy asked permission to Subscribe to such stock. A By comparing notes the members of the Executive Committee decided that they ersonally knew of men who would take 0,000 of this popular ‘stock. President Wagner said the association would confine its efforts for the present to this city, taking in the five boroughs. He Baid he had conferred with stock raisers end their representatives and was assured that enough stock to meet the demand for beef by this city will be furnished. Nothirg has yet been done to prevent rate discriminations by the board, but President Wagner said he had been assured by stock- raisers that he need anticipate no trouble from this source when his company as- kumes tangible shape and becomes reaily formidable. George Kahn says the retailers are now obliged to sell their meats at an average ranging from 12% to 13 cents a pound. When the new company gets into the field he hopes to see the price cut to from 7 cents to 7% cents on the average. President Wagner savs the local agents of the Big Five meet in this city every Monday morn- ing and arbitrarily fix the price to be charged for the week. He says it is not Tegulated by the market conditions, but by “caprice, whims and avarice.”’ Wagner walso declares that about 60 per cent of the slaughtered beef is available for food supply and the rest has to be disposed of for various uses, but little is lost. He says this city is more favorably Situated for the profitable disposition of this product than any of the Western cities. He says cattle can be shipped here and more economically slaughtered and placed on the market than in any other city in the country. It is asserted by the retailers that there mre available here for the new abattoirs more than 3000 men who have been com- —s by many causes to leave the butcher usiness and get into other avocations. Wagner savs the numerous responses to agvertisements for. help by the butchers heey that these men—most of whom are ighly skilled—will quickly return to the trace. . When asked what truth there was tn the rumor that John D. Rockefeller, William C. Whitney and other great capitalists had offered to help fight the trust, Wagner said a committee was now trying to meet Mr. Rockefeller, but he is out of the city and has not been accessible. Wagner did not know what Mr. Whitney intended to do. He says a number of wealthy cattle men have agreed to come forward the moment the venture takes tangible shape and take large blocks of the stock.

Both say the stock-ralisers are complaining bitterly that they are get- ting none of the benefit of the higher meat prices, but that, on the contrary, they are at the mercy of the trust. which, they Bay, is scaling down the prices for stock.

In many cases diseases of the nose and throat, if neglected and unchecked, instead of extending down into the bron- ohial tubes, extend along the oesophagus, or swallow, into the stomach. , The mucous discharge is dropped in th throat from the back part of the nose, and in the daytime is hawked up and expelled. At night the nauseating material still continues to drop into the throxt. , It first collects in the pharynx, then it fs brought inte contact with the foul and im- pure air from the lungs, and is mixed with the germs of decay. é‘ Decomposition results, afd In this condi- tion the vile material is swallowed while asleep and goes to the stomach. It is needless to say tiat such stuff was never intended by nature to enter the stomach. The decomposing discharges so swallow- ed are poisons—not deadly »nes, but pois- ons, nevertheless—which act slowly, but surely, undermining ihe paticnt’s constl- tution.

With disease attacking the lining of the stomach, the little giands are choked o by the swelling, and their exit Is blockec by the sticky mucus which has resulted from the Inflammation. As a consequence, there !s not enough digestive juices formdéd and poured out ip- to the cavity of the stomach, The food, not having the necessary ma- terials to dissolve it, ifes in the stemach like lead. Instead of being converted into nourish- ment for the blood, It 1s changed Into pois- onous gases, which distend the stomach, dilating it so that the organs up- ward on the heart and lungs. press The old plan of doctoring for stomach troubles consisted in purges and emetics.

~ PURCELL A GOOD MAN ah ¥ f e SOR ta HE HAS IMPROVED GREATLY SINCE MEETING MOFFAT. TWO CONTESTS ON THE RIVER. In Both of Them Purcell Gained the Decision With Very Little Effort and Short Time. _——— + — ——— There was fun galore in the boxing line On the Jefferson Club's excursion on the river Thursday night. Charley Haughton had charge of the box. ing events, and he puiled off four first- rate matches. Kid McFadden, | the bantamweight of Whom so much has been said in these columns, made his debut against ‘“‘Snake” Gleason, McFadden proved himself a hur- ricane fighter and terrific hitter, and Glea- Son lasted just two rounds. Dummy Schenk beat Al Clark and George Jaegels got away with Jake Smith. Both Of these bouts went the feur rounds. Frank Purcell and Rufis Sharp were to have furnished the “event of the evening,”’ but Sharp, for obvious reasons, did not Put in an appearance. Brownlow Sexton took his place, but after two rounds he cried enough. Villiam Colley, another col- ored gent, then tried his hand, but, iiKe pexton, he only lasted two rounds. Purcell as improved Kreatiy since his meeting here with Moffat. The defeat of Jimmy Scanlon by Bill Btitt at Denver Thursday night ay gre x purpriee to Scanion’'s many friends in St. ouls, Scanlon only lasted two rounds Sgainst Biift. Pat Tomi.nson thought he lad a World-beater in Scanlon, but it ap- pears he was badly mistaken. Scanion’s quick defeats of Paddy Lawlor and George nies were what gave him prestige here. is quick defeat by Stift proves that he is mot even a good second-rater. 5 wrt Met oy has accepted the offer of the Dantcnenter Club for a tight with Tommy — The latter has not yet been heard The match between Jef Thorne n J . } »- and Kid poCoy is not off, as reported Thursday. @ fight was deciared off Owing to a pri- vate understanding between Fitzpatrick and McCoy. They were not satisfied that the Westchester was the best club to have the fight, owing to its distance from tbe ‘city. They also knew that several club manage- ments in New York were anxious to get the match. Hence they schemed a little, with the result that they Succeeded in having the management of the Westchester Club declare the fight off. But it will take place ail the same, and before the Broadway Athletic Club in New York, on the after- noon of Tuesday, Sept. 23. Joe Choynski, the clever pugiiat from California, oO meet Australian Jimmy Ryan for 2 rounds before the Dubuque Athletic y bn 80clation of Dubuque, Io., Aug. 29. This oF — ~ srPsg - night of the mammoth Carnival to be held at the Key Clty from Aug. 2 to 31. cathode te Both of the contestants were held in re- ferve by the management and «sent into training a couple of weeks ago in anticipa- tion of any of the 12 contestants booked meeting with an accident and being unable to fu.fill their contracts. George Byers paid forfeit to the club and refused to moet Root, and accordingly Choynski and Ryun Were brought into requisition. The men will battle 20 rounds for a purse of $4000, of which $3500 goes to the winner and $500 to the loser. Choynski is now fn active training at Denver, Colo., and his opponent is getting into shape at Bath Beach, Coney Island. heavyweight has been matcaed A fast and furious mill ought to result when these two well-known exponenis of the fistic art come together. Ryan is noted for his strength and bulldog ferocity wille in action, He carries a knockout punch in his right glove that has sent many a gcod man down and out, and is famous for his rushing tactics. Recently he met George Byers.in a bruising battle of 2 rounds, during which the latier received a tremen- dous mauling. Although the referee de- clared this bout a draw, the colored man w 80 badly battered that he will proba- bly not box for some time to come. It js alleged that this was the reason of Byers’ unwillingnees to meet Jack Root and oc- casioned his backdown and payment of for- Teit muney to the Dubuque Club. Of Choynski little need be said. His name is known in all lands where the sports as- semble around the ringside. Strong, clever, and game, with a record which contains the history of encounters with the best men of the modern ring, not excepting the name of Champion Jeffries, with whom Choynski fought a 20-round draw in 1898, the boxer from the Coast is certain to live up to his reputation when he meets the slugger frum the antipodes. MANAGER W. 3. WATKINS. He Talks About Syndicate Baseball and the New League. PITTSBURG, Pa., Aug. 2.—W. H. Wat- kins, formerly manager of the Pittsburg Club, is still here and will likely remain several days. He had a long talk to-day with President Kerr, but neither would teil what it was about. Asked about the story that he has been out lookjng up new play- ers he said: “I have looked all over the minor leagues in the country and have seen some prom- ising material in them. As to who I am going this for I do not care to say. The vastern League contains a number of men who surely will break into the big organ- ization next year. The same is true of the Interstate, did not spend much time among the Interstate towns, as I know most of the players there. In ali the towns Seenve visited, with very few exceptions, s to eneral pros ’ baseball business.” 4 etatatn hen asked if he were an agent of the new league going areund the minor leagues Bering up Players for next season, Mr. atkins replied evasively, To all questions fired at him he would give no direct an- ewer, and it could not be told from his talk whether he was working for the National OSG, the alleged new league, the Pitts- bur ub, the Cincinnati Club or who. As to the new league, Mr. Watkins said: my opinion that if such a thing ts formed it will not be antagonistic to the National ague. Everybody knows how disastrous the ast baseball war was to all concerned and for that reason, {f no other, I would not expect to see the new organization buck against the strong one now in the field. | am glad to see the black eyes that have been given to syndicate baseba}l) recently As to the pennant race, I think it is a (oss up between Boston and Brooklyn,” PITCHER PINK HAWLEY. The Browns Old Pitcher May Go to Pittsburg.

Laan The story ta to the effect that he has been more than Anxious to get back to his first love ever since Watkins was deposed from the management. There was no love jost between “Wattie’’ and Pink. It was Manager Watkins who made the deal that sent Hawley to Cincinnati. The latter did not want to leave Pittsburg at that time. Haw'ey, through a friend, has written to President Kerr.

LOUISANS. IT WILL BE RUN SATURDAY. Green B. Morris’ Division Moving Well and May Capture the Swell Event. NEW YORK, Aug. 2%.—The great Fu- turity of Saturday and its probable winner were the chief topic of conversation among the horsemen at the Long Island race courses yesterday. W. P. Burch stated that he had never seen horses suffer so much in his life as arrived during the day ' from Saratoga. Chacornac, James Rowe's crack candidate, had his share of the suffering and the trip may cost him the race. However. nine out of every possible ten men that saw him run at Sara- toga and win in such impressive style think that he can win the Futurity. Ex-Corporation Counse)] Clark's colt The Scotchman, will have a s'r ng following in the big race. He covered @ : furlongs yes- terday in very impressive ..y.e in 1:15. This was good work over the Gravesend course. George Odom will ride The Scotchman, He is all right again and looks vigorous and strong. Tristan Belle also worked well over the Gravesend track yesterday, and if Fred Burlew can secure a good jockey this speedy filly will go to the post, Charcornac hac a limbering-up gallop over the Sheepshead Bay course and he did not seem to have suffered as much as Trainer Rowe expected. Knight of Rhodes aiso had a stiff galiop. He is a good-looking colt with plenty of stamina, and will be ridden by O'Leary in the big race, Green B. Morris’ division are moving in fine shape: It is said the stable will start three out of the four named in the entry list. Modrine, Walter King and Silver Gar- ter will probably be the ones selected. Mov- delmo, che good-looking son of Sir Modred, and Hearsay, it is said, will be a sure starter. This colt showed great speed at the Brighton-Beach meeting. As yet the big race is a hard puzzle to solve, but the work of the candidates lo- day and Thursday may throw some light on it. CRICKET AND BASEBALL. The Controversy 2s to Which Is the Best Game Continues. To the Sporting Editor of the Post-Dispatch. I have read with much interest the artl- cles of Mr. Irwin and Dr. A. M., on the rela- +tive merits of cricket and baseball. These games have each their good points and both could no doubt be improved, but in my opinion, they are really so dissimilar, that a comparison would not be of much benefit. In America baseball] is the national game and is exactly suited, not only to the peo- ple, but to the climate. Which of us would wish to watch, much less play, a game of baseball extending over say two or more days with the temperature somewhere about the 100 degree mark. Neither players or spectators could endure it. Therefore they confine the time of action to say two hours, and all are under high presgure while it lasts, In England the popularity of cricket can- not be doubted, as witness an attendance of over 30,000 during one of the Australian games during the present month. Then again it must be borne in mind that we here in St. Louis are apt to compare the games to the detriment of cricket, as we judge the one from the performance of a professional team, whilst we have no op- portunity to see the other under the same conditions. Were the gentlemen who play cricket at Forest Park on Saturday afternoons in daily training and practice, it would not be necessary to have any boundary rules, and they might score as many runs as could be made before the ball is returned. The ex- cessive heat and circumscribed grounds, however, under this rule unavoidable. Let us have both games and as many others as will help to strengthen the muscles and sinews of the boys and men of our nation or adopted land. FAIRPLAY. St. Louis, Aug. 2. Questions Answered. G. H.

THE CHRYSANTHEMUM WILL BE RUN Sam Phillips, Sidbow, Chickmaugua and John Millin Are Among the Likely Starters, The Chrysanthemum will be run at the | meeting, Fair Grounds Saturday afternoon. | It is the closing stake of the Fair Grounds season, and it promises to be a very pretty race. The Chrysanthemum is a handicap sweep- ' stakes for 2-year-olds, at a mile. There were 55 nominations to this stake. John Millin, Sidbow, Sam Phillips, Chick- ‘amauga, Deveric, May-I-Go, Special Notice, Ben DeBar, Duke of Melbourne, Fair American, Verdinst and Woodtrice are the 2-year-olds now eligible that are here and likely to start. ‘ Saturday is the last day of the St. Louis and it ushers out the most suc- cessful 90-day meeting the Fair Assocla- tion has ever held. Tom Nepper’s filly, Triaditza, won the all- aged race from Sorrow and Cotton Plant at the Fair Grounds Thursday. The filly raced head and head with her field for a quarter of a mile and then drew away, winnine easily. Sorrow showed great improvement over her last race. Apple Jack at 9 to 1 won the opening ' event from Barriso and Aunt Maggie. Hin- the 1 to 3 favorite, was unplaced. The Hindoo horse is stale right now. He ran a very poor race and could not get out of his own way. dceonet, iood Hope won the second event handily from Saratoga and Nancy Till. Hope was the best and showed improvement. Diore held out in the third just long enough to win from old St. Augustine, who was closing strong. Siddubia, the favorite, was third. St. Augustine had all the hard luck of the race and was probably the best. Sir Rolla galloped over Basquil and Carl C. in the fourth event. Sir Rolla ran well and the 107 pounds impost did not seem to hurt him. e was not played heavily. He opened at 3 to 2 and went to 2 to 1 Flylotta, the favorite in the fifth race, finished haif a longeth in front of Canrobert, with Leipzig a close third. A special from Detroit says that at the next meeting of the Turf Congress an at- teanpt will be made to bring racing back to its oid lines, apportioning the dates out to the various clubs and the meetings in the West to follow each other, instead of clasn- ing as they do now. The special says: “With the proposed circuit arrangements St. Louis, while racing, would have the field to itself as far as the West is con- cerned instead of having as is now the case, opposition throughout its entire season, All the good stables and all the Western book- makers wou:id be at the Fair Grounds meeting instead of being scattered as un- der. existing conditions. With, say 30 books in line each day of racing instead of a dozen or fourteen, and with the still greater crowds that it is reasonable to suppose would be drawn to the track, when all the good horses in the West would take part in the racing, the average daily profits of the association would be even greater than at present. It would probably be a difficult matter, though, to convince the St. Houis people that they couid do as well on the season as now, and unless they can be made to believe that, their opposition to any leg- islation in the Turf Congress looking to a change in existing arrangements, as far as they are concerned, is to be expected. ‘*‘What has been said with reference to the probable attitude of the St. Louis Club as to an allotment of dates by the Turf Con- gress may be applied to the Chicago Asso- ciations. The immediate profits of the as- sociations in the two big Western cities might be lessened if their racing season were shortened, as would necessarily be the case with the proposed circuit arrangement, and though the betterment of the game at other points might and doubtiess would eventually inure to their benefit, it need not be expected that their representatives will look byond the present if the matter of “taking turns’ ever comes up for consid- eration by the Congress. ‘‘Nearly all the other associations that are members of the Turf Congress, however, would be directly and immediately bene- fited by a return to the old-time circuit arrangement.”’ J.

' Prof. Rudolph R Reeder of Columbia | @niversity in a lecture at Belleville Thurs- @ay night condemned as an evil the em- ployment of servants to do work which he contended should be done by children. ‘His argument was that the performance ef many household tasks has educative walue and that the best interests of the ; ehild uire that it perform such tasks, aa ll . “In well-to-do homes,” he said, “servants wT Mg employed to do the work which y “a hs cs formerly done by the children, The ts imagine that they are doing a ser- to their children. They think they are g them free and giving them a chance get an education, when in fact they are riving their children of their birth- ’ of. Reeder'’s subject was “the Child in the Hiome.”’ His lecture was delivered in nection with the St. Clair County Teach- : Institute at léAederkranz Hal. The audience was large and genuinely ap- ve.

Occasionally he drops into a reminiscent vein and sometimes he tells how he put Della Fox into the business. Berger had learnéd a few clog steps, could sing fairly well and was walling for the tide in his personal affairs that was to sweep him on to victory. The opportunity came early in the spring of °M. Mrs. Benton had advertised for 300 girls to take part in an amateur performance of “Cin- derella,” at the old Mercantile Library Hall, at Broadway and Locust street. On the morning that the appl-cants assembled Mrs. Benton sent for Berger to help her pick out the ‘best dancers, It was a long and tiresome process, but the young usher finally selected fifty girls. There were two of this number whose work he liked very much. One was a little, flaxen-haired girl with @ face that was all good humor and bubbled over with youthful vivacity fairly and animation. Berger called her up. ss “What is your name, little miss?” he asked. notebook in hand. “Della Fox, if you please, sir."’ “Della Fox. Oh, yes: your father keeps a photograph gallery across from the thea- er.”’ **Yas, sir.”’ The other eirl that Berger thought prom- ising was called up. In reply to the same auvestion she said her name was Libby Ma- carty. The performance of “Cinderella’’ was a great success. Della Fox and Libby Ma- carty alternated in the leading role, so that the friends of each would turn out in force. Rerger was satisfied that Della was born for nothing else than the stage. He used to go over to the photograph gallery pretty often after that, and when he heard a good song at the theater he taught it to his pro- DELLA FOX. tezwe. She was apt in everything that per- tained to the art of mummery. The follow- ing fall the young usher proposed to Della’s mother that she allow her daughter to go on the stage. The father did not object, but the mother demurred. Her scruples were overcome, however, and the young hopefuls went out with a company playing “Muldoon’s Picnic.’’ They did a song and dance specialty under the name of Berger and Fox. Berger said: “Della saved the show. I think that it was by all odds the worst thing that ever took the road, but we had swell paper and the name took the HARRY BEPRGDPR. people. They came in droves, but went away howling. The men of the company were egged nightly as they came from the Stage door. I used to take Della under my wing and skip out fer the hotel as soon as We Were through. She was the only good thing in the piece—I don’t even bar my- Sseil. “It was wonderful how.that girl came on in the business. Before we had been out ten weeks she had developed into a graceful and dashing soubrette. But even her ex- cellent work couldn't save us from ruin, S0 one cloudy morning we woke up to find that the manager had skipped and we were left stranded high and dry.
