SPREE Ne ge ~ MARK ; er ae CENTURY Some Hope That Wednesday May Be Cooler and the Fine Autumn Weather Be Begun. Tuesday is the hottest day of the year. But although the mercury climbed to over’ 100 by the middle of the afternoon, there were few cases of sunstroke or heat pros- tration. This remarkable fact is due to the dry and salubrious atmosphere of St. Louis. If this heat were in Chicago, the prostra- tions and deaths would run up in the hun- | dreds, and if it were in New York the vic- | tims would be numbered by thousands. In St. Louis the sun was scorching. It fairly blazed, but with a heat that was dry and bearable. People were annoyed because they perspired so freely, yet in that very fact lay their greatestt safety. At 7 o’clock ‘n the morning the mercury Stood at 82. This was pheronmienail, as a beginning, and presaged a record-breaker. It climbed the tube at the rate of a little more than 1 degree an-hour. At 12 o’clock it stood at 98, equaling the reeord of the eeason. : After the noon hour the mercury con- tinued its upward posereds reaching the maximum at 3:30, when it registered over 100 degrees. , A breeze blew fitfully from the South and Feast, but it was hot and brought no relief to those who sought it. Electric fans did not relieve. They simply stirred the hot air without cooling. it. The coolest ee one coulé find was in the twilight of a narrow alley, where the sun’s rays did not penetrate, and where tl'4 breeze was caught between high walls and led. “Such weather in September is unusual, although the first week in September is al- jays hot. “Dr. Hyatt’s reading of the skies Tuesday brought no promise of immediate relief from the drouth end heat. The rain which he hoped would come by Tuesday. passed heyond St. Louis and fell in torrents in the lake region, the Upper Mtssissippi Val- ley and as far South as Dubuque, Io. At Sault Ste. Marie the rainfall was 2 inches. The areas of low barometric pressure are over the lakes, the central west and the Roeky Mountain wee The high areas are over the North Atlantic slope and the extreme Northwest. The low over the.central West might. bring a cha to St. Lovis if it were not &o diffused and of vo little energy. Its move- ment eastward would allow the high in the extreme Northwest to push down this way. Last year @ drouth of long standing was broken on this date. The heat and dry weather had prevailed during the latter rt of August and up to the 5t r. On that day rain fell and there was a decided drop in the temperature. During the remainder of the month the weather was pleasant. People who are not scientific experts, but yet think they know something about Mis- sour! weather, eay that the predicted thunder storms for southwestern Iowa on Tuesday night and of cooler in northern and central] Illinois will result in_ pulling the mercury down a few notches Wednes- day and make the temperature less dan- gerous.

REESE. HE CLAIMS HE WAS HYPNOTIZED ‘possession when arrested. of Septem. | » ‘and piercing when BY GOODNER. f , Two Men of Former Good Reputation Under Arrest, One Being at the City Hospital on the Verge of Insanity. Of all the counterfeiting cases that have come to light in St.’ Loms the strangest is that in which twe men with good rep.ta- tions who were arrested Monday night are involved. One is a dentist of good reputation. The other is a corn doctor or chiropodist. The dentist is David F. Reese, who lives in a fashtonible loeality at 3833 Olive street, and has a wife ard davehters in society. The cther is L. S. Goodner of 1300 South Eighteenth street, nit so feshionable a lo- cality, but eminently respectable. The dentist fs more than 60 years old. He has confessed and is so stricken with re- morse tnat his mind could not stand the — ORDER T0 CLOSE THE WINEROOMS It Has Been Issued by the Ex- cise Cemmissioner. PEREMPTORY AND UNEVASIVE. MR. HIGGINS SAYS IT MUST BE AT ONCE OBEYED. Deputies Busily Engaged Notifying Saloonkeepers That Their Wine- Rooms Must Be Nailed Up or Removed. Excise Commissioner Higgins began the real work of closing the winerooms Tues- day mornng. He started his deputy, R. P. Thompson, and Detective Tim Danaher out to no- tify the keepers of the places that their rooms must be suppressed. A beginning was made with the Central Police District. The first list given to Sr. Thompson included Market, Chestnut and Pine streets, from Twelfth to the Levee. The notification given the wineroom keep- ers is peremptory. It admits of no parley. In substance it was that all stalls; parti- tions, curtains or other paraphernalia used to separate compartments intended as a, DAVID F. REESE AND L. S. GOODNER. accusations of conscience. It weakened and the old man is now @ prisoner in the): observation ward at the City Hospital, at the threshold of insanity. The other man, younger by 20 years than the old dentist, is at the Four Courts, & prisoner in the ho:dover. He is crafty in appearance and conversation. He has not confessed. He denies guilt, and shifts his gray eyes uneasily while making the denial. These same gray eyes, which are large— their owner wills it— plays an important part in the counterfeit- ing case. The coins counterfeited were nickels, hundreds of them. Neither of the accused had need of the small revenue derived from the nickels made. There was apparently no provovation for the crime. Old man Reese, the gray-haired, feeble- minded dentist, declares that hypnotism was the provocation in his case. He says the gray eyes of the corn doctor impelled him to commit the crime. The counterfeiting has been going on nine months, according to the confessicn, and, if the dentist’s statements are to be believed, during all of that time he has been moving under the spell of the corn doctor with the gray eyes. He could never get away from the influence, He struggied to free hipi- self from its effect, but could not sueceed. At times the old man thought he hw sheken off the ‘nfluence of the corn doctor and for days he would make no counterfeit money. But these periods were at times when he and his controlling power were not thrown into contact. But so soon as they met and the old man came under the piercing glance of the gray eyes of the other man, good resolutions were disg@lved and counterfeiting vas resumed, Both men had counterfeit nickels tn their The coins were made in the office of the dentist at 714 Pine street. The corn doctor maintains an establishemnt at the same number, on the same floor, and in adjoining apartments. The dentist had in his office plaster of paris and the necessary toois for making molds. His story is that he made the molds and the corn doctor furnished the metal and superintended the casting. he preduct was fairly good, as is proven by the fact that although the counterfeits have been in circulation almost a year, the first complaint about them was received quite recently. The complaint came from the Suburban Garden. Detectives O’Conneil and Flynn were assigned to locate the counterfeliers and arrest them. The officers put in sev- eral nights and afternoons at the gar- den and Monday night while the perform- ance was in progress, discovered that Dr. Reese, who was in the audience, had given a waiter two counterfeit nickels in payment for a pint of beer. Reese was quietiy arrested and taken fo the nearest police station, the Tenth Dis- trict, at Deer street and Easton avenue. The prisoner was exceedingly nervous from the time he was arrested. The of- ficers applied the sweating process on the way to the police station and secured a confession. Fearful of the consequences of his crime and anxious to mitigate it in any way sug- gested, he readily acceded to the detectives’ agemands to tell all about the counterfeit- ing. His first statement was, “He hypnotized me. T'was obliged to do his bidding.” He then said that Dr. L. 8S. Goodner was his controlling power and that Goodner was the actu®i guilty man. He stated that he met Goouner for the first time about one year ago, when chance threw them into the same office building. Goodner seemed to play a part in everything that he, Reese, did, even pefore the men were int.oduceu. He carried an image of the corn doctor's eyes in his mind wherever he went, he said, and likenesses of the eyes seemed to pry into his very soul and dictate the workings thereof. when eventuall circumstances made the men acquainted, eese became entirely sub- ject, he says, to the suggestion in the y eyes and completely subservient to the wiil behind the eyes. Of course this is ali Reese's story. _There is no corroboration for it, save such as one may choose to find in the depths of the alleged hypnotist's eyes. his story, Reese said that ContinulAg i acquaintance Goodner told early iat me. ws drinking places must be removed. | “Locking the doors won't do,”’ said Mr. | Higgins, in delivering instructions to Mr. Thompson. ‘The places must either be re- moved entirely or nailed up.”’ No time is given the keepers in which to suppress the rooms. The order was that they must be suppressed immediately. When instructions have been delivered to all of them, Mr. Higgins will look to the pd- lice to inform him whether the order (has been obeyed. He says that part of the work will be left to the police. If the order is not obeyed he declares that revocation of the licenses of the disobedient will follow at once. “I will not tolerate either disobedience or evasion,” he said. “My order is such that no man need misunderstand, and I ex- pect it to be obeyed.” Mf Thompson and Detective Danaher|be- gan~with Market street, east of Twe The first place on the list is at Fenth Market, kept by a man named Doyle. was not in, and his bartender was posed not to receive the order, "$4 it must be delivered to Mr. Doyle person “You are his agent, and you will dell: the order to Mr. Doyle,” said Mr. Th son, decisively. | He and the detective then inspected wineroom, It was a box-like stall] in the rear of the saldon. The partition reached only half way to the ceiling. The door had a lock to it Mr ‘Thompson told the bar- tender that it must be removed at once. At the next place, on the corner of Ninth and Market, the proprietor, Placht, was disposed to he argumentative. His rgdom was divided from the rest of the saloon by a wall, pierced by a door, but this door was closed by a heavy curtain. The room had also a street door, but a view of the interior was cut cff in that direction by a scréen. The proprietor claimed that women never frequented his place, and that-it was Kept for the accommodation of young men who wanted to play cards. He tried to get 59 Thompson to give him an interpretation of the order, arg:ting all the time that it did not apply to him: Mr. Thompson declined to enter into any discussion, and told Mr. Placht that he must judge for himself whether he cameo under the order. | At the next corner there were two wine- rooms, with electric bells, tables jl chairs. They clearly came under the order, and Mr. ‘Thompson did not stop to parley with the proprietor, who claimed that wam- en never frequented the place. Down in the next block the officers st k Tom Allen's place. Tom has one room. He 4d no woman had been in the place in six months.

RENNES, France, Sept. 6.—Much de-| pends on the examination of the Austrian refugee, Cernusch!, which will take place in a secret sersion of the Dreyfus court to- morrow. The prisoner's counsel expect by thai time to prove even to the satisfaction of Col. ; Jouaust that Cernuschi is an imposter and a lilar—a paid emissary of Cavaiguac, Mer- cler and De Beaurepatire. This witness, who, in the closing days of the trial seemed to drop from the clouds, must be shown to be a perjurer if Dreyfus is to be saved from certain condemnation. Suppose some of the judges desire Drey- fus’ conviction. €o long as only forgeries and lies that can be investigated are brought against him, such judges would be embarrassed to justify their vote. But of allegations like Cernusch!’s they can say: “I believe his statements. They are uncontradicted.” Against such a posi- tion all the arguments of Labori are im- potent in a court such as this. ANOTHER ESTERHAZY. Your correspondent saw Cernuschi just after he left the witness stand. He was willing to talk, and adhered to all the state- ments made in his testimony. In appearance Cenuschi is the typical ad- He is a thin, white, nimble little fellow, with blonde hair, a hesitating glance and an uncertain expression. To-day the correspondent of the Neue Freie Presse of Vienna received a telegram from his newspaper, stating they had con- ducted a thorough inquiry and hag found no trace of Cernuschi in the Austrian-army between the dates he says he served in it. By to-morrow Dreyfus’ counsel, will have the full pedigree of this mysterious wit- ness, Dreyfus was more yellow and emaciated to-day than at any previous sitting. He seems thoroughly worn out with fatigue. Col. Jouaust also seemed tired to-day and leaned back in his chair. CALL ON FOREIGN POWERS. To-day M: Labori demanded that the French Government ascerta'n through M. Deicasse, Minister of Foreign A®airs, from the Germain Government whether the five documents enumerated in the bordereau were delivered to Germany,’!o whom they were delivered and what they realiy von- tained. This demand went to the g‘st of the whole question, for ine a2tual delivery of :he five documents, which alone consu- tutes the act of treason with which Drey- fus is accused, is so far a mere assumption. No evidence has yet been adduced of such delivery, merely an inference of such de- livery from the context of the bordereau. Labori also asked that Swartzkoppen and Panizzardi be requested to appear before the court-martial. This demand was overruled by the court.. If the defense succeeds tn getting this evi- dence, it must manage to find means of its own for so doing. An ex-Minister of Justice, M. Trarieux, made a strong appeal for Dreyfus to-day, but it is doubtful if it deeply impressed the court. DID GALLIFET STEP INP I have just eeen a telegram from Paris which states that Gen. de Gallifet, the Min- ister of. War, upon learning that the new secret dossier, whose existence was only revealed yesterday, is to be examined be- hind closed doors, immediately sent orders to Maj. Carriere to deal in public with the 14 documents the new dossier contains. The text of Gen. de Gallifet’s telegram is said to be as follows: “It is the pur- pose of the law that justice shall be admin- istered publicly. “The secret session waa instituted solely for cases where pubdiic morals or public safety would be endangered by open de- bate. “I consider the secret examination of the dossier in question would be an abuse of this institution, because neither pubNe mor- als nor public safety can be damaged by the revelation of what it contains. ‘Therefore I, Minister of War and 8u- preme Chief of the Mlitary Judiciary, di- rect that the 14 documents which the court- martial at Rennes proposes to examine to- day be examined publicly and in due re- spect for the epirit of the law, 60 as not to mislead the French people as to the im- portance of any part of the proceedings before the court-martiai.” Immediately upon the receipt of thig or- ler, Maj. Carriere, who represents the gov- ‘rnment before the court, drove to Gen. Roget's house. Pt was then 3 o’clock.. Every possible in- luence was brought to bear on the Min- ater of War to induce him to withdraw he order. ; The chief argument being used Jn thir trenuous effort is that the execution of the rder would be construed as a censure of | that Gen. de Gallifet has interfered.

Sept. 5.—The latest news re- ceived in this city from various points in South Africa is vague and contradictory. Nothing more is known regarding the sta- tus of the negotiations between Great Bri- tain and the Transvaal! than that learned yesterday. The officials of the British War Office emphatically deny that the reserves have been called out, or that any steps have been taken to that end. a The afternoon newspapers follow the lead y } Vay AD: 7 z Ki 4 Y Lif figs Fe, GEN. JOUBERT. The man who is in command of the Trans- vaal Army. of the morning papers in taking an ex- tremely grave view of the situation, al- though the War Office denials somewhat tends to allay the wildly alarmist reports current late last qe The Boer organ here, the Standard and Diggers’ News, to-day prinis a dispatch from Pretoria, saying that the tension there was apparently less severe, and that it was believed arrangements for the proposed con- ference at Cape Town would be completed. although President Kruger of the Trans- vaa) Republic was unlikely to attend. The opinion of those who regard the be- ginning of a war between Great Britain and the Transvaal as only a short time is voiced by the St. James Gazette, which says to-day: ‘The news concerning the crisis is very grave. We learn that three more Infantry brigades have been ordered to Cape Col- ony, including the Gordons, of Dargal fame; one baitalion of the Highland Light Infantry, who fought in Crete; the Second Battalion of the Black Watch, and the Second Battalion of the Cameronians. These regiments are under orders to ready to leave at twenty-four hours’ no- tice. The officers and men are delighted at the prospect of active service. “In eervice circles war is considered ab- solutely certain. The Admiralty have a number of transports ready to convey troops te Cape Colony. The Boers, while prcerestnating in regard to their reply, ave been making every preparation for War and are contemplatin raiding the Natal frontier. Laings Neck, which is the sole route from the Transvaal to Natal, is undefended,”’ Cape Town dispatches say that the Afri- kander papers print what purports to be a semi-official account of the recent pour parlers. But as these credit Mr. Conyng- ham Green, the British agent in the South African Republic, with saying that Great Britain was willing to abandon the ques- tion of British suzerainty if the proposals made at the Bloemfontein conference by Sir Alfred Milner, the Governor of Cape Col- ony, and British High Commissioner . of South Africa, were accepted, they are not cred.ted either at Cape Colony or here. The second edition of the Times, issued this morning, contains a dispatch from Pretoria under date of Sept. 4, saying: “The predominant view is that the last dispatch opens up the way to a modus vi- vendi. inasmuch as the proposals of Mr. Chamberlain, relating to the seven years’ franchise, have been practically complied , This is the result of the influence of er, special agent of the Orange with the Raad.”’ however, is at variance ori he Times this morning. of the news in regard to the uth Africa d ect on the | rely sympa ,’ eee ape Mt, OEST 2) 3 2 REI. 2 Bake} Be A = 3 - "3h oad ee cg Pitt ef 2 oak OP? a >.

Made desperate by the pangs of hunger, which he was unable to satisfy, in spite of his utmost endeavors, Edward Miller, an honorably discharged United States volun- teer, turned highwayman Tuesday after- noon, as told in the !ate editions of the Post- Dispatch. Meeting a woman at Sixth and Franklin avenue, who, womanlike, carried her pocketbook ioosely in her hand, the temptation was too great for Miller to resist and snatching it from her grasp, he ran rapidly away. large crowd who had witnessed the occurrence but had been too surprised at its audacity to interfere, started immediate- ly in pursuit and afcer a jong chase, in which Miller ran over house tops in his wild desire to escape, he was captured. Inflamed by the passions characteristic of a mob engaged in a man-hunt, the pursuers would have made it go hard with the pour, haif-starved fellow, had it not been for the opportune arrival of a policeman who was forced to draw his pistol before the crowd would release their hold of the ex-spidier. He was taken to the Fourth District Sta- tion where Capt. Kiely, after hearing the prisoner’s story, ordered him given doubie allowances of food, which Milier devoured with ravenous appetite. _He says he comes from Wyandotte County, Kansas, where he used to be a farmer. He is 3 years old. BLEULER-BLANKE WEDDING. Home of the Bride Highly Decorated With Palms and Roses.

PHILADELPHIA, Sept. 5.—Thi@ was the big day cf the Grand Army encampment and the city was alive at an early hcwr. The presence in the city of President Me- Kinley and his drive over the route of the parade aroused the greatest enthusiasm among the throngs. Admiral Sampson and the captains of his ficét made a formal cal upon the President before 9 o’clock, Mr. McKinley receiving them in the reception room set apart for him at the hotel. Afterward the Presidential party, includ- ing the AJmiral and the captains, entered cerriages and went over the route of the parude.

No intuition warned him that his most dead:y enemy had crept up at his back and held a glittering knife upheld to plunge it between his shoulders, “The knife did not fall!”’ Further on there is another passage marked which paints a scene something like the killing of Koeller. “Curse you!’ snarieu .ne villain in a whisper, as he made a furious lunge and tore his adversary’s wrist from his chest to make room for the blade to enter. ‘“‘You have baffled me times enough, you fool!

LONDON, Sept. 5.—The latest news re- ceived in this city from various points in South Africa is vague and contradictory.

The opinion of those who regard the be- ginning of a war between Great Britain and the Transvaal as only a matter of James ‘The news concerning the crisis is very grave. We learn that three more infantry brigades have been ordered to Cape Col- ony. including the Gordons, of Dargal fame; one ba.talion of the Highland Light Infantry, who fought in Crete; the Second Battalion of the Black Watch, and the Second Battalion of the Camerontans. These regiments are under orders to be ready to leave at twenty-four hours’ no- tice. The officers and men are delighted at the prospect of active service. “In eervice circles war is considered ab- solutely certain.

The Boers, while tage nape in regard to their reply, ave been making every preparation for War and are contemplating raiding the Natal frontier. Laings Neck, which is the sole route from the Transvaal to Natal, is undefended.” Cape Town dispatches say that the Afri- kander papers print what purports to be a semi-official account of the recent pour parlers. But as these credit Mr. Conyng- ham Green, the British agent in the South African Republic, with saying that Great Britain was willing to abandon the ques- tion of British suzerainty if the proposals made at the Bloemfontein conference by Sir Alfred Milner, the Governor of Cape Col- ony. and British High Commissioner of South Africa, were accepted, they are not cred. ted either at Cape Colony or here. The second edition of the Times, issued this morning, contains a dispatch from Pretoria under date of Sept. 4, saying: “The predominant view is that the last dispatch opens up the way to a modus vi- vendi, inasmuch as the proposals of Mr. Chamberlain, relating to the seven years’ franchise, have been practically complied with. ‘This is the resuit of the influence of Herr Fischer, special agent of the Orange Free State, with the Raad. his dispatch, however, is at variance ditorial views on the matter ex- the Times this morning. of the news in regard to the th Afri a decided y Exchange being completed for safeguarding the tele- | graphic communication with the Cape in case of war between Great Britain and the Transvaal.

Made desperate by the pangs of hunger, which he was unable to satisfy, in spite of his utmost endeavors, Edward Miller, an honorably discharged United States volun- teer, turned highwayman Tuesday after- noon, as told in the late editions of the Post- Dispatch. Meeting a woman at Sixth and Franklin avenue, who, womanlike, carried her pocketbook ioosely in her hand, the temptation was too great for Miller to resist and snatching it from her grasp, he ran rapidly away. A large crowd who had witnessed the occurrence but had been too surprised at its audacity to interfere, started immediate- iy in pursuit and after a jong chase, in which Miller ran over house tops in his wild desire to escape, he was captured. Inflamed by the passions characteristic of a mob engaged in a man-hunt, the pursuers would have made it go hard with the pouvr, haif-starved fellow, had it not been for the opportune arrival of a policeman who was forced to draw his pistol before the ¢rowd would release their hold of the ex-soidier. He was taken to the Fourth District Sta- tion where Capt. Kiely, after hearing the prisoner's story, ordered him given doubie aliowances of food, which Milier devoured with ravenous appetite. He says he comes from Wyandotte County, Kansas, where he used to be a farmer. He is 3 years old. BLEULER-BLANKE WEDDING.

In this they are confirmed by the records of the Interstate Merchants’ Association, which show that the two working days of thie week are the banner ones of the sea- son, so far. Although Monday was Labor Day, and therefore a virtua. holiday, more ‘a A Three Days’ Crush at the, merchants had registered by night than on any other day, and the outlook for Tuesday was encouraging. The total for Monday was more than 200. This was caused largely by the last open- ing day of the millinery trade, but in the crowd of arrivals were many general mer- chants. and they were even more con- spicuous Tuesday. They are to be Seen on all the down town streets, and the ho- tel registers show two to three pages of their names every day. If the weather turns cooi, the rush will become a “‘swamp- er." They come from all over the West and the South, and names are seen from South Dakota, Kentucky, Alabama, Florida, Mississippi, Texas and in fact all over, For St. Louls trade is wherever railroads run, and the Washington avenue and Cupples Station dealers are too alert to let any of it get away.

These rates are one fare, plus $2, for any point on certain lines beyond 200 miles. The rush to take advantage of these rates, which are termed homeseekers’ excursions, as well, is always great, and this fall it promises to exceed all records. The sta- tion officials are dreading the coming of evening, as they will have their hands full. All incoming travelers complain loudly of the drouth, no matter from what part of the country they imay be. Out through Kansas, the dust is measured by inches, and the corn is burning up. Through In- diana and Jilinois, while the lack of rain is not so bad, there is much apprenhension.

ALGER’S STRANGE ORDER. THE PAPERS WERE NOT SENT TO GEN. MILES. Maj. Morrison Comes to the Defense of Gen. Lieber, Whom Blair Charged With Drunkenness. — Special to the Post-Dispatch. WASHINGTON, Sept. 6.—The Post-Dis- patch correspondent has the highest au- thority for asserting that the Carter court- martial was unanimous in the verdict reached. An emphatic denial is made by arrey officers who have been connected with the case that there has been any con- spiracy or any semblance of collusion on the part of the staff to get Capt. Carter out of the army. It has long been known that the papers in the case were not sent to Gen. Miles as commanding officer of the army for his indorsement, as is contemplated by army regulations. It is now disclosed that Sec- retary Alger issued an order, when the papers were ready to be passed to army headquarters, that they be not sent there. A further fact here revealed for the first time is that when charges were drawn up, naming contractors as co-conspirators with Carter, pressure was brought to bear upon Secretary Alger to eliminate those names. Attorney-General McKenna was consulted. He declared that without the names the charge would amount to nothing, and so Secretary Alger was obliged to let the charges stand. The statements of Capt. Carter’s attorney, in which they seek to show unfriendliness on the part of Alger, are incompatible with | these facts. Now that Capt. Carter’s defense is that he is the victim of a conspiracy, and charges have been made that members of the court of officers taking part in the prosecution were in collusion to secure his disgrace, the view is held in army circies that but one construction could be placed upon the disapproval by. the President,’ of the court's verdict, and that would be that he had reached the conclusion that there was really such a conspiracy. This would be a reflection upon an officer in whom the President has repeatedly announced that he reposes supreme confidence—Gen. Otis, now in command in the Philippines, who was the president of the court-martial. Lawyer Blair, one of Capt. Carter's at- torneys, was graduated at West Point Mil- itary Academy, after which he was assigned as instructor in an educational institution in Missouri, where he remained four years, 4 during which he studied law. At the end of that period he left the army and prac- tically had no connection with the mil- itary establishment. Maj. J. N. Morrison, Assistant Judge Ad- vocate General, United States America, after reading the interviews accredited to Miair in which Biair is made to say that the Judge Advocate General has been drunk for 25 years, and that Morrison de- clared that he believed Carter gulity, said: “I have known Judge Advocate Genera) Lieber for 12 years int.mately. I have never eeen him under the influence of liquor. He is not a drinking man. He is at his desk early and late, taking but a glass of milk and a sandwich for his noonday lunch. As for what Attorney Blair said of me I can only admit that he told the truth.”’ Maj Morr.eon said that the statements of Blair relative to alleged nightly confer- ences between Gen. Otis, Col. Barr, Capt. Gihette and others at Savaunah were ab- surd. ‘The officers mentioned Dy Blair as hav- ing met and discueeed the Carter case dur- ing the progress of the trial at Savanneh,”’ said the major, “have told me that the meeting referred to was but a casual one, and that no reference was had to the trial. Taking up Blair’s likening of the Carter case tu the Dreyfus case, Maj. Morrison said: ‘lc would be utterly impossible to have such a case under our rysiem of military — for court-martial trials are held ere with open doors. All the evidencs and every bit of the proceedings are carefully recorded, and when conclusions are reached the entire record goes to the President, who is supreme and is not bound by what the court has found in any particular except that he cannot increase the penalty. “It is readily, to be seen, then, that the entire court, Preece ting officers and wit- nesses, must b¢@ in collusion in order to pro- duce a record that would Ceceive the Presi- dent—a thing which would be impossible. ‘In this case, when the trial was over. the part taken by the army was ended, and nothing has been done by any of the staff since, except that Col. Barr was directed to reply to the brief of Carter’s attorneys, which he did. é “Gen. Lieber, In order that his mind might be free from prejudice when the case came before him for review, had me draw the charges, and Col. Barr conducted the trial. Thus Gen. Lieber, in going over the papers after the court had concluded its work, was absolutely unbiased, and was guided in his indorsements solely by the record of pro- ceedings.”’ SCANDAL IN A VETERAN’S HOME Wisconsin State Board of Control Re- ports on the Waupaca Institution.

PARISHIONERS ARE JUBI‘ANT. CHURCH BELLS RANG AND PEQ- PLE ASSEMBLED. The Temporary Priest Delivered a Brief Address Outlining His Pow- er and Duties in East St.. Louis. Peace now hovers over St. Patrick's Parish in East St. Louls. The beginning of the end of the bitter controversy that has waged between Bishop and people for four monttis was witnessed Tuesday morning, when the Rev. FatTley John Harkins, who has been appointed temporary administra- tor of the congregation, was royally wel- comed to St. Patrick's parochial premises. As previously told, the regular appointee, Father William Cluse, whose German na- tionality provoked an uprising almost un- ted oh in Catholic church cage! ndered his resignation, to take effec the pleasure of Bishop Janssen. The metropolitan has referred Father Cluse’s letter to Monsignor Marstinelli for action, so that the question of permanent rector is still in abeyance. In_other words the Belleville prelate has-thrown the bur- —s of the dispute upon the papal dele- gate. It is genérally believed the latter will neither acept nor reject the resignation, but will simply advise the iBshop upon the course to be pursued under the circum- stances. ,. That means, so the parishioners claim, that an Irish priest will be chosen to preside over St. Patrick’s and that har- mony will again prevail in the East Side diocese. In the presence of a Post-!Dspatch re- porter Father Harkens tcld the delegation of the parisnioners Tuesday that the dif- ficulty was alraost certain to be adjusted to their satisfaction. He added that Mgr. Mar- tinelll would decide the cese within two weeks. Meantime, he geaid, they needn't worry, Father Harkins was escorted from 8t. Mary’s Church, where he is stationed, to the new charge by a committee of St. Pat- rick’s parishioners, consisting of Dantel Mc- Glynn, James Goff, Thomas ae, Dr. John Stack, Ju McKane, John J. Snow- ball, P. B. Cusick, Thomas Irwin, Thomas Hanifan and Michael] J. Walsh. The trip was made in carriages and the church bells tolled as a signal of his ar- rival. Inside of a few minutes several hun- dred persons, of whom a majority were women, gathered around the church. As Father Harkins alighted men, women SS en ewarmed about to shake his and. At the entrance to the school house stood two black-robed nuns of the Loretto order. They knelt and received the priest's blessing. he sisters announced that they were ready to open the school at ence. has t at Father Harkins instructed them to be on hand at the regular hour Wednesda morning. Brief services only will be held, the administrator said, until next Monday, when classes will) be formally begun. Soon after the male parishioners assem- bled in the hall and Father Harkins ad- dressed them substantially as follows: “You are perfectly famillar with the troubles that have led to my appointment. Let there be no mistake. I am not the pastor, although I have all the rights and prerogatives of a pastor. My tenure of of- fice is purely discretionary with the Bishop. I do not think, however, I will be needed here but a short time. “While Father Cluse’s resignation has not been accepted, it stands. The case is now in the hands of the papal delegate, and until he renders a decision your course should be absolutely conciliatory. “For the time being I am the responsible head of St. Patrick’s Parish. Yet responsi- bility without rignt Is notning. Therefore I ask that the guard be withdrawn from the church premises, and that my authority, so far as you are concerned, be made de- cisive.”’ On motion of Daniel McGlynn it -was unanimously resolved tb comply with Fa- ther Harkins’ wishes. “Hiow about the ban of ex-communica- tion?’ asked Mr. Cusick. ‘‘Well,” replied Father Harkins, “I will see Bishop Janssen to-morrow regarding that. I shall place the situation in as ad- vantageous a light as possible and am fully confident of a specdy and favorable decis- ion. As the Bishop has placed the ban, he alone can remove it. eanwhile I expect our hearty co-operation in both the spir- tual and. temporal affairs of the parish Put your children under Catholic influence by sending them to our school. “I will state further that mass will be celebrated in St. Patrick's Church at 8 o'clock Sunday morning. Another will be said at 10 o'clock if arrangements can con- veniently be made to do 809. “I am sure you will have no cause to complain of the ultimate outcome of this unfortunate affair, although it would be un wise in me to talk further on this point I the present time, You, of course, most dis- tinctively understanding that [ am to merely carry out the temporary duties to which the Bishop has assigned me. “I shall be glad to baptise any child or fill other spiritual] wants required of me. The parishioners were juDilant over Father Harkins’ remarks and tendered him a vote of thanks. It was decided to begin necessary re- pairs on the church and school at once. In the course of his address Father Har- kins stated that the insurance on the church was repudiated six weeks ago. He said insurance men regarded the financia! risk es @0 much while guards were at the church, and for that reason partioutasy he desired to have the guards discharge ; This was done immediately at the close © the meeting. st. Patrick's members declare ther Ve tory over the Bishop is complete, on one @ them rem:@ked, “‘There is no a left but the shouting.” Taste Good, Do Good.

FRANCIS. ee MAYOR ZIEGENHEIN MADE A HU- MOROUS SPEECH. ——E—————— Entertainment of the Five Hundred Delegates Begun by the Local Committee of Arrange- ments. The annua] meeting of.the Natlonal As- sociation of Stationary Engineers began at ll o'clock Tuesday morning in the parlors of the Southern Hotel. The delegates had been gathering all Monday and during Tuesday forenoon, and when Frand Eard- ley, chairman of the St. Louls executive committee, called the assembly to order, the room was crowded with the 300 or more in atteidance, besides the many wom- en present as guests. Mr. Eardley made a short speech of wel- come on behalf of the 8t. Lou!s engineers and introduced Gov. Francie, who. he sald, wou.d take the place of Gov. Stephens, who was unable to be present. Gov. Francis had come al! unprepared, vei he made a cordial speech of welcome in the name of the State. He devoted a £00d part of the time to the Louisiana Pur- chase exposition, ca ling attention of the de.ega.es to the benefits that they, as en- Zineers, would derive from the opportunity to come In contact there with the highest and bes: things in their own flelda& and the chances they would have there to™work out their own ideas of the theories of me- chanics. He declared that the St. Louis fair would eclipse any similar event ever held, and urged all of his hearers to re- turn to he “big show” in ] John . Lane of New York, ~y presi- dent of the association, responded on be- hal the association. He told the ob- ject f the organ.gation of which he late- .vV Was the head, and defined its ._purposes. He declared i. had no coanection with the labor movement and said it would have none. He referred in strong terms to the engineers’ part in the war with Spain, and Geciared that to Gardner C. ims, the chief engineer of the repair ship Vulcan, Was due in large part the effectiveness of the fieet that sent Cervera to the bottom of the sea. Mayor Ziegenhein fairly outdid himself in his welcome of the members on behalf of the city. He made a great hit by teli.ng them to get what they wantea, and if it were not given them, to take it anyhow. He said the engineer above had turned on too much steam for comfort, but that it was because there were engineers enough in town to contro] It. He grew so patsivtic that he was cheered repeatedly, and the many humorous allus'ons he made were much appreciated by all his hearers. Vice-President H. Stone of Boston, the ch.ef engineer of Harvard College, spoke briefiy of the assaciation, and pleaded for the loyalty of its members, and then Mr. EKardley relinquished the chair to the Pres- ident of the Associftion. W. W heeler. who, after he was introduced, assumed the direction of the meeting. He was interrupted at the very start by Mr. Einfeldt of Denver, who presented him with a fine gave’ of petrified wood, mounted stag’s horn as a handle. It was one of the finest things of the sort ever seen, and President Wheeer was guite Unable to reapong to Mr. Ein- feldt's presentation speec The gavel bore as an inscription: “PRESENTED TO W. T. WHEELER. NATIONAL PRESIDENT BY DENVER, NO. 1.” A recess of 2% minutes wes followed by the reports of the Credentials Committee, the secretary and treasurer, in the order named. The first report showed all the delegations and the regularity of their ap- poiitment, and on that of the secretary the convention made up its mileage report. In the afternoon, efter the reading of the reports named, which finished the busi- ness of the day, the delegates saw some of the city. The women of the party were taken in carriages through Shaw's Garden -and Tower Grove Park. For Tuesday night the programme shows a meeting of the Life and Accident De-. partments, while for the women there is a theater r@°*y, arranged by the Ladies’ Auxilia of the St, Louis association.

In the afternoon those who so desired were taken about the city by the St. Louis members, and shown Various points of in- terest, and in the evening they were enter- tained at an informal reception and at the yarious theaters, The presence of so many women with the visitors is one of the unusual and very pleasant features of this convention. They attended the session Tuesday morning and seemed to take a great interest in what was going on. They lent a touch of bright- ness tathe assembiy that nothing else could, and the men- seemed to be much pieased with his innovation.

The teachers hed risen early and gone to the super‘ntendents office for advice and instruction on a hundred and one points “We don't care whether school keeps or not; do we?’ of procedure that are always left by some people to the last moment. e parents had risen early because they were moved by indignation, and imagined that they had good grounds for protest. One mother thought it was a shame that her little girl, who had done so well last year under a certain teacher, should now be transferred to the care of another. When it was explained to her that the erection of three new schools had necessitated a rearrangement of the schoo] districts, and that she was only one of many sufferers | from a cause which could not possibly be avoided, she was compelled to accept the ex ‘lanation, but she went away indignant, still. These things were expected by the assist- ants of the superintendent.

OUR RECORD-BREAKING CORN CROP. ’ j sat Chicago experts estimate from the reports at hand that the fy _ @orn crop of the United States will reach a total of 2,500,000,000 4 - bushels. This is the largest crop on record, beating the record- breaking crop of 1885 by 500,000,000 bushels. While some farmers who are not in position to utilize their corn will complain of the low prices caused by the surplus, yet the enormous crop is good for the whole people and means feod for the poor farmer and prosperity for the thrifty farmer. Corn is properly described as meat and bread. Even when the market price does not offer a profit for the grower, it can be turned into-meat at a profit. The farmer who feeds his corn to hogs and cattle will make good profits on his crop this year and will he/p the meat market for the consumer. A country that produces a corn crop of 2,506,000,000 bushels as the basis of its food products accomplishes a wonderful and beneficial achievement and is in easy circumstances.

Light is thrown on the subject by an extract from “Alice in Wonderland,’’ which presents a faithful picture of ‘criminal procedure in the Kingdom of Topsyturveydom, whose author, Lewis Carroll, was admitted to be the highest author- ity on that subject. In the trial of the Knave for perpetrating @ copy of verses picked up by the White Rabbit is the fol- lowing: “Are they in the prisoner’s handwriting?’ asked another of the jurymen. “N6, they're not,” said the White Rabbit, “and that’s the qpeerest thing about it.’" (The jury all looked puzzled.) ‘He must have imitated eomebody else's hand,”’ said the King (The jury all brightened up again.) se, your Majesty,’ said the Knave, “I didn’t write it, and’ they can’t prove that I d‘d; there’s no name signed at the end.”’ “If you didn't sign #,” said'the King, “that only makes the matter worse. You must have meant some miscnief, or else you'd have signed your name like an honest man.” There wae a general clapping of hands at this; it was the first really clever thing the King had said that day. “That proves his guilt, of course,”’ said the Queen.

Admiral Dewey is likely to be a thorn in the side of the McKinley Administration. ; The interview published in the London News Aug. 21 Is not denied by him, and the editor of the News cables the New York World and the Post-Dispatch that he has no reason tc doubt that the Admiral was correctly quoted. In this interview Admiral Dewey says: “The Filipinos are capable of governing themselves; they have all qualifications for it. It is a question of time, but the only way to settle the insurrection and assure pros- perity to the archipelago is to concede self-government to the inhabitants. “That woull be a solution of many questions and would satisfy all, erpecially the Filipinos, who believe themselves worthy of it, and are so. “I have never been in favor of violence towarm the Fili- pinos. The islands are at this minute blockaded by a fleet and war reigns in the Interior. This abnormal state of things should cease. “I should Iike to see autonomy first conceded and then annexation might be talked about. “I should iike to see violence at once put a stop to. “According to my view the concession of self-government ought to be the most-just and most logical conclusion.”’ If these are the sentiments of the victor of Manila the im- peralists will get small comfort from his presence in this country. Long before the Philippine question arose Dewey declared that a statesman was wanted in the archipelago. Instead of sending a mau of that sort, the Government dispatched pro- fessional fighters, soldiers who naturally looked at the situa- tion from the standpoint of military men. The present brutal] and inglorious war is the result, and it isn’t likely that it will be stopped in defefence to the Admiral’s suggestion. Stupidity is in the saddle at Washington. = = * — Senator Morgan, if he wants to see Great Britain continue friendly to us, should endeavor to suppress his prophecy that Manila, under our rule, will take the place of Liverpool as the great cotton market of the world.

These men were representative of the human forces, the ability and energy which have made St. Louis a great, pros- perous city and are carrying her forward in the race. Their voices may be taken as the voices of the overwhelming ma- jority of the St. Louis people. The voices ‘| were many, but the schtiment was prac- tically one. Although some had _ held doubts concerning the advisability of holding the Fair, all joined in declaring that the time for hesitation had passed, that all St. -LLouisans should unite in working for: success’and that united work would bring great success and inesti- mable benefits to St. Louis, the West and Southwest. But the World’s Fair is not alone the concern of St. Louis. It is the concern of all the States in the Louisiana Pur- chase Territory. The project to hold the Fair in commemoration of the Louisi- ana Purchase was determined upon by a delegate convention representing all the States within the boundaries of the pur- chase. It is the project of all of these States. They intrusted the task to St. Louis and are pledged to its support. It is interesting to know the views of the To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch.

Mitteburg at Chicago. New York at Mrookiyn. Maitimvre at Boston. The Nationat League season closes on October 15 and the sprint down the home Stretch may be said to have fairly com- menced. Brooklyn with her present long lead looks like @ sure winner, but Boston and Phila- Gelphia are close on cach other's heele for second place. Despite Brooklyn's long lead, however, there are some folks down Boston way Who still believe that team has a chance. In fact, ‘tn Boston the foliowers of the Same have not given up hope, but they @re at the same time much put out at the recent work of the team. ,. Superstition is more or less abnormally developed in base ball players, and in a @reat many enthustasts as weil. In Boston they are just beginning to re- member that no team has captured the championship four years in succession. Both Boston and Baltimore have captured the trophy three times in order, and the superstitious are getting worried. Gen. “Hi! Hi!” Dixweil, the veteran en- thusiast who has followed the fortunes of the champions for so many vears, shook his head dubiously when questioned the other day about the Boston’s chances. “Hi! Hi!’ is known ail along the circuit, and he has probably spent more money on ball’ play- ers than any outside enthusiast. The gen- eral is a funny-looking little fellow, of 50 yeare of age, with scraggy whiskers. Some one called him a “hoodoo” early in the year. and the old-timer took it so much to heart that he has not been to see a fame since. He is loyal, however, and be- leves that Boston will certainly win the pennant. He says that the Boston pitchers will do the trick when it comes to playing the last card. anion is more confident than ever that _ his Brooklyns cannot loseghe flag. He ad- ‘mits that both he and his players were a little dubious before that series with Bos- ton. Those two victories over thé cham- pions put a jot of ginger and confidence in Hanion'’s men, a mighty desirable thing to have around at this time of the year. Harry Pulliam, treasurer of the Louis- Ville Club, who is here with the Colone!s. asked last night about the story that the Louisville Ciub intended to quit the busfX% ness. sald: “We simply transferred the remainder of our home games to other citles because it would have been bad business policy to have played them in Louisville.’ “Why so?" “Because the Louisville ground has no fit accommodations for the public,”’ was the reply. “We have not yet received our tn- surance money for the grand stand that was destroyed by fire. It would be bad pol- icy to make an investment in a new grand Stand until we got paid for the old one. We did put up a temporary structure. It did not suit the public. They ®ould not come out and put up with the accommo- dations we had. It costs over $300 A day to run the Louisville Club. In the two weeks we played there we lost $2000. It was ro use to stay there and burn up money. It Was this reason that prompted us to play off the games in other cities,” “Is it true that you have sold Wagner and Clarke to the Cincinnati Club?’ “NO, we have not sold any player, and don't intend to,”’ said Treasurer Pulliam. We intend to keep all our good players and add a few more for next spring. We will be in line when the gong sounds next spring.” “Never fear, there will be a new league in the fleid next spring,’’ said Tommie Dowd of the Clevelunds the other night. “The promoters are working quietly. They @re making ‘a kind of dark-iantern, gum- @hoe hustie’ at the present time, but they will show their hand later on.” “Tommie ‘has already engaged me to play with the Washington team,” said Sullivan, the third baseman. “Maybe you think there is no money be- hind ar | Washington Club,”’ said Dowd. * “Some the best people in Washington -@re interested, It is an even-money bet that the mew league will be a gv."

When he wee classed with Collins and Waliace sev- - er.tics smiled, but when they saw him play they changed their minds.

Weil, what'll you have gentle- men’?

And do you remember the day jou lined us up and fined us all a hundred apece and took all the fines off that night because we hau beaten the life out of the Pittsburg brew- ery team that afternoon? And do you re- memeber the day Al Spalding came all the way from Chicago with a leather trunk to take all that money home with him and of how we sent him back’without a cent?

For the Man Who Gets Tommy Ryan to Meet Kid McCoy. NEY YORK, Sept. i.—A well-known sporting mam, who is a great admirer of Tommy Ryan, this evening said to Kid MeCoy: “Kid, why don’t you make a match with Tommy Ryan?" “You and Ryan are good friends, are you not?’’ asked the Kid. “We re,’ replied the gent. “You could get him to do almost any- thing, I believe,” the Kid continued. “Perhaps—anything within reason,’’ slow- ly repile the gent. “Well, I'll tell you,” drawled out McCoy. “There is the best suit of clothing in New York in it for you if you can arrange 2 match for me with Ryan. I want to meet him any time after I meet Thorne on fues- day night and after I again meet Jack Mc- Cormick. How about it?! asked the Kid. “Ili try,”” said the sporting man. McCoy has informed Manager W1)sou of tlie Hawthorne Athletic Club of Bu'falo that if that club hangs up a purse he wil. meet Tommy Ryan rext month.

JIM CORBETT’S LATE ODEFI. Martin Julian Laughs at It and Says the Old Champion Will Never Fight Again. Followers of the boxing game will this Tuesday night have a chance to see just how far Kid McCoy has gone back since his meeting with Tom Sharkey. For the first time since his memorable meeting with the Sallor, McCoy will to- night be called on to meet a boxer .of the first class. He will then meet Jeff Thorne, the Brit- ish middleweight, in a 20-round contest. On form the Hoosier pugilist should ‘vin from the visitor, but of late the 3m students have been thrown down on sevcral occasions in unexpected and _ surprising fashion. Nevertheless McCoy should be a heavy favorite in the betting, and warned by his recent unlucky experience with Jack Mc- Cormick is not apt to become the receiver- general for an accidental, but none the less deadly, knockout punch on the jaw. Speaking cf ‘McCormick brings to mind the fact that the @uaker City man fights on the same night that McCoy and Thorne ineet. He will make his appearance at th Ameroican Athietic Club of Guttenburg, N. J., with the intention of boxing WB rounds with a pugilist of Chinese extraction, re-« qorens in the patronymic of Li Hung Foy. t should preve @ jo3 ous and inspiring ex- hibition to the onlookers when the bulky man from Ph.ladelphia and he of the pig- tail and almond-shaped eyes begin ham- mering each other merrily around the squared circle. Martin Julian, Fitzsimmons’ manager, laughs at the very idea of Corbett again entering the ring. Of Corbett, Julian recent- ly said: “All this talk of Corbett’s entering the ring again ts pure nonsense. The man is but a shadow of his former self. One good look at his face is enough to convince a shrewd observer that his vitality ia gone. Besides, the business he is in and the late hours he keeps are enough to wreck the constitution of any athlete. Corbett will never take part in a square fight again, If he does go {n the ring with any good man vou can bet it will be for the purpo®@ of ‘making some eesy money, but not by put- ting up a fight, for that is something he its rhysically incapable of. In my opinion, his challiemge to the leading heavyweights is nothing but a scheme to Keep his name be- fore the public.” ——_@—-—_—— THE LOUISVILLE CLUB. It May Not Be a Member of the Na- tional League Next Year. LOUISVILLE, Sept. 5.—The Colonels will play only one more game here this sea- son. This will be with Washington to- morrow. It will perhaps be the last time the National League will play in Louis- ville for a long time. It is stated on what appears to be good authority that, at the close of the present season the Colonels star players wéll be sold off and that the franchise of the club will be purchased by the league. Earl Wagner of Washington was given an option on his franchise for 0,000. ue? the players are sold, Clarke, Wagner and Cunningham would likely go to Brook- ivn. Leach to Boston, Clingman to Balti- more and Ritchey to one of the Eastern eams. “Some of the other players and pitchers are also salable. President Dreyfus left this morning on a mysterious mission. He declined to state where he was going. Speculation is that he will be closeted with John T. Brush before the day is over. WANTS TO BUY STAR POINTER.

She Had Played Many Parts and Had Been Associated With All the Leading Stars. PHILADELPHIA, Sept. §.—Mrs. Sarah A. Baker, who has just died at Forest Home was the oldest American actress. Her last appearances were made with Thomas W. Keene, during the season preceding death. After that she retired from the stage, and a place was found for her at the Forest Home. Mrs. Baker was born in Philadel- phia in 1817, and made her debut 19 years later to the Walnut Street Theater, of which her father was at that time mana- ger. She was acting in Buffalo in 1663, when she was married to J. 8. Baker, a well- known actor of. his time, Mrs. Baker belonged to various stock companies in the larger cities, and later joined one of the traveling companies. She made a reputation before this as an actress of talent, and had acted all the plays of the repertorie, standard in the days of her earl- jer career. She plaved with all the famous actors the American stage had known dur- ing the © years of her professional life. with the three Booths, Edwin Forest, Char- lotte Cushman end E. L. Davenport.

Recently Returned From Europe He Spoke Eloquently of the Jews and Incidentally of Dreyfus. The initial service of “Rosh Hashona.” the Jewish New Year, was held in all the Synagogues of the city Monday evening. It was initiatory of a fortnight of solemnity and fasting, and as such its observance was most impressive, The services gt Temple Israel were par- ticularly beautiful. The large edifice at Leffingwell avenue and Pine street was crowded far beyond its normal capacity, in spite of the suffocating weather conditions, for in addition to the holiday, the occasion Was the first when Rabbi on Harrison had appeared in the pulpit since his recent European trip, and his congregation wished to welcome him in a befitting manner. Instrumental and vocal music formed a large part of the services, the choir being for the time considerably enlarged. Prof. A. Eimer, formerly of San Francisco, Cal., presided at the organ. Dr. Harrison was in excellent voice, and even surpassed his usua) high degree of eloquence. His sermon was on “The Day of Judgment.” The services closed with the usual ritual, proving most interesting to the iazge number of Gentiles peceent. , The second day's services were held at Temple Israel, as well as the other places of worship, Tuesda morning at 10 o’clock. This is the actual New Year’s day, and ac- cordingly devotions were of a more solemn nature even than on the preceeding even- ing. After an Organ prelude and fervent prayer by Rabbi Harrison, the “‘Shofar,"’ or ram's horn’ was sounded, as has been done in ex- actly the same manner and at the same time for over 6000 years. Full of deep signif- icanoe, its clarion tone ts one of joy to the pious Jew, and it constitutes, perhaps, the most important part of the beautiful ritual of the day. The augmented choir rendered RABBI HARRISON. several selections and then Dr. Harrison spoke as follows: GEN. XXII., 6. “And they went both of them together.” All over the world to-day a trumpet is eounding, rallying together a nation that is not really a nation, to celebrate a new year Van. is Not really a new Year, to per- petuate a paradox that becomes sublime by perpetuation, with its typical ram’s horn, a relic of pastoral life, resounding amid the roar of commerce and the crowded mar- ‘kets of the world. “Around the earth from land to land, re- echo these thrilling notes of the trumpet. They are heard in Arctic solitudes and in burning desert. ey make vocal the si- lence of African forests, and frighten the wild secamews from the masts of ocean lin- ers. They speak from zone to zone and from clime to. clime, and their responsive accents belt the globe. “And wherever these piercing tones re- sound, a wandering tribe has pitched its tents. They have gleamed on Arabian sands and grown into homes on Judean soil. They have been scattered to the four winds by the arm of the conqueror, but neither exile, dispersion nor the strong hand of power could avail to force wpon them either cross or crescent, or stifle the triumphant call of that annua! trumpet. It has called and called; when the sunset of antiquity faded into the glowm of the dark ages it tolled the death-knell of the ancient wofld. When the fires of the inquisition burned with savage glare, it throbbed with the agony of martyred multitudes. It was the inarticulate voice of a speechless people, the weird accompaniment to the passago of years, It rang out the tyranny of church and throne; it rang in the day dawn of free- dom in the world. Its chant has sobbed in dirge and exulted In jubilee; it has been responsive to every motion; it has called unceasingly to the faithful in every land, in every age. It is, as it were, the voice of the years, the voice of the centuries, the an- nual valedictory of time himself, in fire sanctuaries of the most ancient of peo- pies proqetming his gradual exit from the woria, ‘“‘Reverently then may we Lsten to this far-off echo of that ancient desert-hornf that summoned the B'nai Israel to their daily plilgrimege.

And from that ancient portion, therefore, I have endeavored to Select a text adequate to convey the weghty import of this day. And my text is an exceedingly simple one. It is simply the words describing father and son’ on their way to fulfill the behest of God: ‘And they went both of them together.’ “Remember that at that time all that was to make possibile Judaism or the Jews was comprised in these two men, Abraham and Isaac, What concerned them, we may construe as concerning us, their descend- ents. And it is tn that sense we will in- terpret the words: ‘And they went both of them together.’ Their descendants have fol- lowed their example. In spirit, in dominat- ing purpose, in their wonderfully close bond of rotherhood, they have gone, all of them, together. It is only the solid unity of Israel] that has preserved this indestruct- thle race to behold this five thousand six hundred and sixtieth. anniversary. The hrase: ‘Household of Israel,’ expresses this ntimate family relationship. Between Israelites, rich and poor, learned and ig- | norant, free and bond, yea, even between radical and orthodox, there are more points of contact than contrast. Hitherto even Israel's extremes have preserved their es- sential identity: ‘And ey went both of them together. } “1. And the reason why it Is possible for so much unity to prevail in Israel, is be- cause there exist in the genius of Judiaism elements tu satisfy all classes of minds re- ardless of the relative emphasis laid by ndividuals upon these constituent parts. In Judaism, reverent loyalty and unsparing investigation have ever progressed with equal step. In our text, we behold Abra- ham, commonly called e ‘Father of ths Faithful,’ a type of faith, Isaac, repre- senting reason, questioning Abraham con- cerning the sacrifice, and they “‘went both of them together.’ Their companionship is highly significant. Faith is older than thought. Men believed long before they reasoned, But it was only in Judaism that faith, the father, did not slay reason, his most precious child. In Judaism, we glory in the fact that credulity has never fre- placed conviction. Never has the Jewish mind ceased to push its inquiries even into the Holy of Holies, Maimonides united the light of logic with the fire of faith. Men-; delssohn vindicated for the intellect what the heart already had accepted. Even in ancient Judaism this gang was main- tained, and how much more do we to-day cause reagon and reverence to go hand in hand, even as of old, ‘they went both of them together.’ ‘2. So with these wondrous facts known and realized, how can any man shrink from taking upon himself the noble. heirloom of Judaism, from espousing so illustrious a cause that has given to th race and re- ligion, the dual elements of permanent vi- tality, and has infused even into the indi- vidual a strango combination of unlike characteristics. It is especially to roung men and women that I appeal, The ackbone and stamina of every re}lg¢iun consist in its youth. They are the strong hand and arm of activity and enterprise. They are the pledge of future perpetuation. They are, indeed, our Future. And, how etrikingly apt it is to remind you that the words of our text were spoken of father and son, who went together to vindicate their loyal obedience by loving companion- os 4 and willing sacrifice. ve need the stability of age and the energy of youth; we need both the conservatism of the one and the radicalism of the other. We need the latter for sails and the former for rud- der. And the exact measure of any con- gregation’s real, vital strength is the pro- portion of young men and women actively interested th its ministrations. Judaism, like Rachiel of old, ‘Give me children or else I die. “8. And let us not forget that Abraham and Isaac of old went both of them to- gether for sacrifice. lt appeared that a sacrifice was to be offered, and the young man, ae in the full promise of youth, seemed to have been singled out for that sacrifice. ‘The age of swcrifice has not passed. Still, to-day, those whose ears are ever open to divine whisperings, must secrifice for a cause; must give up time, name, peace of mind, fortune, liberty, yea, even life itse, for their generous mission. And whereas of. old the —— was voluntary, and fiery zeal gladly gave proof of fidelity, now, ofttimes, the saerifice is involuntary, yet inevitable. Robbed of its glory, it is not: robbed of its torture. ‘The halo of mar- tyrdom rests on the brow that has sweated blood; and anguish ennobles the heroism that could endure foul wrongs and Jive un- til truth could shine forth. The glory of a cause is replaced by the glory of the Spar- tan courage that torture and shame worse than death could not. weaken or subdue. “And a gallant gentleman has been etricken down because he was of our blood, our race, our faith, He was hounded, he was hated, he was dishonored, he was buried alive, he was tortured, he was slain by inches, because he was a Jew. And this, ladies and gentlemen, is the nineteenth century. This is the banner nation of free thought. Oh, still the cal) for sacrifice re- sounds. Mount Moriah is now called Devil's Island. The victim’s name has changed, but still a victim must be found, an innocent victim of the same old race to pour out his blood without cause. “And now Hope comes down again like a dove on troubled waters. our ancient text that the victim was not offered up in the end, that to the ground fell the bloodess knife, that the justice of God triumphed and the young man Isaac returned again to his house. “] remember trat and I hope and mtn All good men and women with a single cries out: our ft FOR THE ACTOR FOLKS ANOTHER NEW THEATER WILL BE OPENED. : Pee Ag , cs bes VAUDEVILLE AT GERMANIA. An Accompanying Cafe Will Cater to Actors After Their Perform- ances Elsewhere. Louls this season. It is the Broadway, sometimes called the Germania, the little house on Broadway near Walnut. It has been leased by James W. White, now connected with Forest Park Highlands. Mr. White has also leased the building adjoining on the South, and will establish a cafe in it to be run in connection with the theater. He has a'plan that he seems to think will please the public and make the venture a successful one. “I intend to give a vaudeville show and an occasional opera,” said he. ‘In addition I will have a Hungarian band that will furnish music in the cafe after the per- formance. I intend to cater to theatrical people. They want some place they can g0 after they get through work and meet con- genial spirits. I will give it to them. The Broadway Theater was formerly one of the variety houses that the police closed under pressure about five years ago. After the property lay idle for a year or 80 & company was organized to convert it into a German playhouse. It was remodelled and made one of the cosiest little theaters imaginable. But it was not a pecuniary ——— After a short and disastrous sea- on the house was closed. Then Billy Rice, the minstrel, undertook to make a fortune by turning the theater into a home of minstrelsy. A capricious ublic refused to second his efforts, and Mr. Rice abandoned the enterprise. Since then the house has remained vacant. Malcolm Williams: and. Gus Weinberg thought of trying a stock company in it, but concluded that the seating capacity was too small for it to be made profitable. A ROMANCE OF THE BICYCLE Only It Really Happened and the Per- eons Concerned in It Were Real Persons. Never had the conceit been so nearly knocked out of Jack Raymond as when pretty Elsie Matthews told him she would never marry a man who could not take care of her and even rule her. This was in answer to Jack's kind offer to take charge of her. It was especially crushing because Jack considered -he was perfect- ~ Somnenens to take this great responsi- lity. in’ hte mind he ran over his various ac- complishments, in time to the monotonous click, click of his cyclometer as it ticked off the miles. Jack coasted down a snort hill and then shoved down viciously on the pedals so as to take the next ascent. Miss Matthews, after six weeks of prac- tice, considered herself an accomplished cy- clist and perfectly able fo ride up any hill, around any stone, over any road or to get off and on her wheel without help. and. in fact, she thought there was nothing about a wheel she did not know. She had often scorned the wisdom of Jack when he told her of the country roads, so different from the smooth paved streets of the city and of the stones that lay in wait under the dust to puncture the tires of the cy- clist, but Miss Elsie considered punctures were the luck only of amateurs in the cy- cling art and not trained riders such as e. When she came to think of the evening before, she was a Hittie sorry for Jack, but he should not have thought that she could be won right away, and not at all if all he was good for was to mend the tires of the young ladies of his acquaintance. With these thoughts coursing through the mind of Miss Elsie, there suddenly ap- peared in front of her a hill go long and steep that it fairly made her heart stand still, but she must not dismount, for had she not said there was no hill In the vicin- ity of Lakewood that could make her get off? Down the hill she went, the wind blow- ing her hair out straight behind. At the bottom of the hill there was a rock that had done good service in puncturing the tires of the unwary cyclist. With a sapere like a firecracker the front tire suddenly went flat, the air escaping .with a loud puff. Elsie was thrown suddenly to the ground and thus, with her dress tangled up in the wheels of her bicycle, Jack coming down the opposite hill found her a few minutes later. Never was she so glad. to see Jack, and as he lifted her tenderly from the ground she nestled to him in a confiding manner and if Jack had only known it he could have had her then. With quick fingers he ay the punc- ture, _a placing Elsie on her wheel, began to push her home, for the sudden fall had sprained her ankle. , Nacing her in an easy chair in her own arlor Yack was about to depart, when he eard an uncertain voice say ‘Jack.’ ‘What is it?’ “Jack, I believe that you do know how to take care of me.”’ And in after years it was only necessary o say punctures to cause Elsie in her most wilful moments to wilt. A COUSIN OF MME. LABORI Cheridah Simpson of Forest Park Highlands Is Related to the French Counsel’s Wife. “TIT feel something of a personal interest in the Dreyfus case,’’ said Cheridah Simp- son, the handsomest young woman who its singing French and English songs at For- est Park Highland, ‘“‘because Mme. Labori is a kinswoman of mine—not very near, it is true, but near enough for me to want her husband to win his gallant fight in be- half of Dreyfus. ‘Mme. Labori was Maggie Oakey when she was a girl, and lived with her step- ather, Edward Sabine, until she married Valdimir de Pachmann, the Russian pian- ist. Mr. Sabine is my uncle. He was reatly opposed to Maggie marrying de -achmann, and the result showed that he was right. After they toured America Mme. de Pachmann sued for divorce and ot it. “My recollection fs that M. Labori was her counsel. At any rate she was married to him shortly after she got her decree. She is about 8 years old, very pretty and an excellent musician. ‘Her talent for music was the cause of her first unNappy marriage. She heard de Pachmann play at a concert and shortly afterwards engaged him as her music teacher. The marriage followed.” Wedding Invitations In the very latest fall tint and shape, and always correct in form at Mermod & Jac- card’s, the society stationers, Broadway and Locust.
