The following official_ predictions were rénade for the Post-Djépatch by Weather noon Wednesday: Cooler Thursda - morning. The temperature is expected to fall |trom 10 to 20 degrees. | This prediction ts based on the following conditions reported to this office Wednes- }day morning: There was frost last night ; in Michigan and the Upper Lake Region, fend freezing temperature just north of that in Canada. Cool weather prevails in the | Northwest and the high is moving this way. There is a low sandwiched in be- tween two highs in the Central West. This is suposed to give local rains and when it moves off the prevailing highs will ‘come in from West and South and the mercury lower. The velocity. of the winds reported shews ‘that the rain should be here to-night or to-morrow morning. Dr. Hyatt claims to be proud of what he is giving St. Louis. “| wanted to give you some real summer,” he said Wednesday morning, “and s>» ‘brought this warm wave. It is a corker, ‘too, beats anything on record in this of- fice. I consider that pretiy good for m) first year here. “The Government thermometers recorded @ slight fraction over 102 degrees yester- day. The nearest approach to that was ‘In eptember, 1881, when on the Sth 101 de- grees were recorded. These are simply Beptéember figures. The normal temperatur for September in St. Louls is shown by the books to be 69, so you see how far we have gone up. . “This morning we started at 86 degrees, four higher than yesterday. That does not mecessarily mean that the day is going,to be warmer than Tuesday, but it will be a hot one. Phe low that ts headed this way may get fn ahead of time, and if it does, cooler weather may be expected. At any rate its close proximity to this section is expected to have some effect on local conditions. “Last night's minimum temperature was as high as it has ever been. The minimum was reached this morning at 3 o'clock when 63 was registered. I believe to-night will be cooler."’ The temperature for Tuesday night as Fecord by the Government thermometer vy the Federal Building. were: 9 p. m. 92, 19 , , m. 8, 1 a. m. 86, 85, a.

Rich and Poor Lounced in Chairs and on Lawns During the Long Night. m™. Louls got up Wednesday morning after the hottest night of the year. Few had slept and those who did recall a long, long might of cat-naps. In the West End, along South Grand ave- ey and South Jefferson avenue, on Comp- on Hill, where the residences are spacious lawns wide, the heat was oppres- sive. ith every inducement offered to the winl’s sweep Boreas kept them chained as securely as he did them the days of Aqpens and the fidus Achates. gontie gopnyt would blow now and then from the South and sweltering humanity would take fresh hope, cnly to have hope sted, for no continuous blow was due the early evening.

The father resumed his s¢3¢ at the telegraph pole. ‘The child’s life was saved and there in St. Louls was another mother who would not part with her joy for the world’s wealth. ‘There must have been thousands of other cases. The boulevards and parks were thronged. The soda water and ice cream man pros- pered as he never did before. Coming down town the prosperity of. the soda water man passed to the beer man. There was a rush for “the brew.” The South St. Louis parks were crowded and the dispensers of the beverage were given a hard night’s work. Above Chouteau ave- nue “the can” was worked overtime. Morgan street, at ‘the lower end, and the streets adjacent east of Fifteenth were full of life—colored life. Grouped around near- ly every doorstep were ten or a dozen ne- gupes. Nearby was the ‘can.’ The “‘can’ was invented by the man who wanted his money's worth. Saloon men in that section Say that more beer was sold in the ‘‘can’”’ Tuesday night than for years. Down in the fourth District where the great majority of the population is Polish and Italian the night was one of torture. Tuesday night they used the pavements for sleeping purposes. Stoops, boxes and benches were utilized and frequently the pedestrian had difficulty in wading through the reclining forms. The police were sym- pathetic and did not disurb them during the night. In ““Clabber Alley” between Sixth and Seventh streets and Carr street and Frank- lih avenue is an Italian settlement. It would require a wind with the strength al- most of a tornado to send a breeze up that aiiey. Not a breath of air stirred all night and there was no. sleep. . 3 Bes +4 80 a? ~ Taken to the City Hospital. | ‘su’ cide, weary hours of the night, but the rain did! lhave , quite comfortable. ! and | Lo and , ‘adjutant He HAD DUG UP HIS DEAD BRIDE Missouri Farmer Found Ca- ressing a Corpse.

Special to the Post-Dispatch. SPRINGFIDLD, Mo., Sept. 6.—George Hendrickson, a voung farmer, living near Oseood, sat on a tombstone with the corpse of his bride clasped in his arms from mid- night till dawn.

HENRI DUMAY, Special Correspondent Post-Dispatch. Italy Permit Their Representatives to Testify for Dreyfus? Special Cable to the Post-Dispaich. RENNES, Sept. 6—No one has been able to Emperor Wiiliam and King Humbert, in which the defender of Dreyfus appeals to these sovereigns to permit Cols. Swarts- koppen and Panizzardi to come to Rennes and tesiify. | All the correspondent has been able to learn is that while the two are quite dif- ferently worded, each is an eloquent &p- peal in the name of truth and justice. The dispatch to the Kaiser contains about three hundred words; that to King Humbert about one hundred. The general opinion. is that Col. Pan- izzardi, formerly the Italian Military At- tache in Parle. may come, but that Schwartzkoppen, the former German Mil- cAL TO KINGS) itary Attache, will not appear in court.

He proposed fifteen questions in the Philippine s.tuation for William E. Mason of L.linois, who is visiting in this State, to answer. The first e.ght of the questions apply to the naval and military operations in the islands. The others follow: “Is President McKinley bound to main- tain the sovereignty in our hands until directed by laws of Congress? “Can any power but Congress acting by law. make the Philippines a co.ony of the United States? “Has any power but Congress the right to surrender our sovereignty in the Phil- ippines? —— ee meee eee Tres, 4 re ‘am WL us me, Or a aE ~ nad FS ) feeanesshs ny a » tye SNAP CAMP OF THE GRAND ARMY, FAIRMOUNT PARK, PHILADELPHIA. ep method of choosing the Executive Com- mittee.

OF INTEREST TO IMPORTERS. Treasury Action in Regard to Swiss Embroideries. WASHINGTON, Sept. 6.—The Secretary of the Treasury has directed an appeal to court from the recent decision of the Board of Class.jication of the New York Board of General Appraisers in the cases of certain importations of Swiss embroid- eries by a New York firm. The iaw provideg that in case a coliector of customs deems a reappraisement by a single genera] ap- praiser too low he may cause a reappraise- ment by a board of three general apprais- ers. In this case the collector d.d no: th.nk the reappraisement too low, but acting on the suggestion of the Secretary of the Treasury, he caused a reappraisement to be made. The Board of Classification, how- ever, nullified this action. by holding it to be illegal, on the ground that the coliector’s action was taken under duress, he feeling compelled to carry out the Secretary’ S sug- gestion, even :f contrary to his own juce- ment. From this decision the Secretary takes an appeal to the United States Dis- trict Court for the Southern District of New York. A New Route to Columbia, Mo., Via M., K. & T. Rallway.

LONDON, Sept. 6.—This morning’s news sheds no new light on the Transvaal crisis. The signs which the English are accus- tomed to see just previous to a war con- tinue and from this any number of sensa- tional deductions may be drawn. Mr. Joseph C *hamberlain, Secretary of State for the Colonies, remains at the Colonial Office. and the other Cabinet Min- isters are either here or on their way to this city. General opinion tends to the belief that the Cabinet council will result in an ulti- matum, followed by an immeciate back- down on the part of the Boers or the com- mencement of hostilities by Great Britain. This. feeling, however, is founded on the trend of the recent negotiations and it Is often forgotten that in these Mr. Chamber- lain had practically a free hand and was not hindered by the cautious conservatism, which undoubtedly will characterize the de- liberations of the full Cabinet councll. The Pall Mall G2zette to-day says: “Tt is feared that during the past # hours the probability of war has become appre- clably greater.” The paper, however, prints no news, €x- cept that received yesterday, to justify this assertion. Advices from various | sources Indicate that the acute tensloggin all parts of Sou =~ Africa continues. ut, unless the Boe. take the initiative, which at present is im- probable, “t is pretty certain that the issue of peace of war lies solely in the result of Friday’ s cabinet council, hence public at- tention is centered more on the signs of the times as exhibited at the army stations, nnd the dockyards than in South Africa it- self, thou h news from there is eagerly awaited, iefiy ow'ng to the uneasy feel- ing that the Boers might end the diplomatic tangle by raiding Natal. It is reported this afternoon that Mr. Chamberlain has sent a reply through S.1 Alfred Milner, Governor of Cape Colony, and British High Commissioner of Sout... Africa, te the Transvaal Government’s lat est proposit' on. The latter is generally un- derstood to be a withdrawal of the forme: concessions and an initiative agreement for a further conference. It seems improbabik that Mr. Chamberlain has done this, as he would probably have awealted the cabinet’s Gecision before taking such action, and even it he has «t is nardly likely that his reply would bring matters to a head except by dir- ritating the Boers into aggressive action. = KRUGER CHANGES GROUND. The Significance of His Move Noi Clearly Understood. LONDON, Sept. 6.—The altered aspect of the Transvaal affair continues to be a mys- tery too deep to ‘be, probed by anybody outside of the chief secretary’s room in the colonial office. President Kruger has sud- denly changed ground. He had been refus- ing to grant a joint inquiry into the precise effects of the proposed political changes. but had offered a five years’ franchise and increased representation under the condi- tion that the suzerainty should be aban- doned. He has now withdrawn that offer, and, reverting to his original scheme has accepted the suggestion for a conference of some kind. The facts are in dispute but this seems to be a close approach to the truth. Why has Kruger changed ground so sud- denly? That is the difficult question to answer. His new attitude would be in- telligible if he had received from Mr. Chamberlain in the last week or the week before a somewhat peremptory intimation that the patience of the British Government was exhausted and that it cou.d not wait any longer, but must have an answer by the middle of this week. There is no official suggestion that any demand of this/nature has been made, but Kruger has Acted impulsively and with bad temper ase though something of this sort had happened. He has answered the original proposal for a joint inquiry after long delay and has withdrawn his amend- ed scheme with tte dangerous conditions relating to suzerainty. If he has left a door open for a full conference over the effects of the franchise. as optimists profess to believe, negotia- aoe may continue and peace be main- ain Reports respecting the ordering out of the reserves are again contradicted offic- lally to-day but the situation has become grave and almost critical, as is shown by the presence of Mr. Chamberlain in Lén- don and the remarkable activity prevailing in military circles. There are no signs ote — market that war ts close at nanciers are informed in crises. oT oe REWARD FOR SHAFTER. He Will Continue in Commandjp Pacific Coast. WASHINGTON, Sept. 6.—As a reward for his services in connection with the Santiago campaign President McKinley purposes to continue Maj.-Gen.

Sy by the contyact with the hauling company, ts that the oh jh ms a 4 ‘ y gtreets will require several weeks, and that during that time the cars of the Washington avenue lines will be switched around the various loops as at present. For two days the closing of Washington avenue has sub- Jected business to delay and injury, the public to great danger and inconvenience, on account of the blockade of cars. It presents a condition which ought not to be tolerated by the authorities for an hour, and would not be if the rights and in- terests of the public had any weight against the influence of the street railway monopoly. No permit should ever be issued to a street railway cor- poration to close up several blocks of a downtown street, and to blockade other streets with cars for a single day. The au- thorities should require the companies to do their work of construction and repair in sections and at night, when traffic will not be impeded and the people put to danger and incon- venience. The present arrangement is intolerable. The question is whether the street railway monopoly or the people own the streets and it ought to be settled at the be- ginning of monopoly management.

Carter? = = NOT WITHOUT COST. The latest photographs of Admiral Dewey, published in the Post-Dispatch a few days ago, show him as a careworn, prematurely aged man. The face contains deep lines and the entire aspect is that of one who has passed through some tremendous crisis. When the news of Dewey's wonderful victory came, no one thought of the terrible strain to which the hero of Manila and all who went through that morning's fierce fight with him had been exposed. Because-of the slight injury to the American fiect, the impression was that the battle, on our Side, was almust child's play. Before that event and for a long time after, Dewey must have spent many an anxious @ay and sleepless night. Decades were compressed into a few months. He lived a life of tension which few men would Willingly endure. But no one will be found to say it was not worth while. Great men have always been willing to concentrate their years in a suvreme effort. When duty calls, they have not Speculated on the effect upon their health. The hero does mot consult the doctor on the eve of his victory or defeat. To him t'me is swallowed up in action. The future may take Care of itself. It is certain to bring him a sufficient reward. -eee _ “Missouri is cutgand out a Democratic State.” says Mr. Han- Ma, in explaining the recent large vote against war expansion.

T. LOUIS POST-DISPATCH. | , “I hope you can live now until @eme good ship comes along to save you.” A struggle on his part might have resulted in saving his tens of thousands would emigrate to the Western hem/t- sphere, where they aré not particularly needed. If this means anything it means that the workers of the world can better afford to support millions of idlers in arms than to set them all to work making their own living. This Is the logic of Topsyturveydom. Smith is doing very well at his present wages, though he must support Jones and Robin- son. But it would mean disaster for him if these drones should become wage earners themselves and relieve him of his responsibility for them. There is something wrong in an industrial system in which idleness is an essential element. The notion that wages would go down in case of disarmament, is, however, not altogether false; but it is based upon the belief that there is not enough to go around. And this is true only because monopoly pre- vents the free employment of the labor force of the world. Abolish monopoly and there would be no fear of an over- supply of labor. = = a The street rallway trust, which owns the streets of St. Louls by the gracious favor of the Governor of Missouri, is giving the people a taste of its quality. Making a pretext of neces- sary repairs, it changes its routes without adequate notice, sends its cars wandering about without proper instructions to conductors and motormen, blocks traffic on a dozen streets, obstructs all the downtown crossings and delays the helpless citizen half an hour or so morning and evening. We are get- ting an expericnce in real] trust government. AN INSPIRING WORD FROM ARKANSAS Gov. Jones of Arkansas sends an inspiring word in behalf of the World’s Fair to the people of St. Louis. He tells us that the exposition “has the enthusiastic approval of the people of Arkansas) not only because the State was part of the purchase, buf because we expect to derive substan- tial benefit from the advertisement of our vast undeveloped natural wealth which the exposition will give.” Gov. Jones knows what a great international exposition will mean to the people of Arkansas. It will be a splendid opportunity to show to the world the resources of the State and to attract men and money for their development. It will mean a leap forward for the entire Southwest and the richest reward will come to St. Louis. In order to secure this opportunity and to profit by it Gov. Jones expresses the firm belief that Arkansas will give sub- stantial support to the project. There is nO doubt that when St. Louisans do their share of the work the people of al) the Louisiana Purchase States will do their share. 6 No St. Louis municipal administration has ever had sense enough to collect the dog tax. Only a part of the tax is ever received. a ae POPULAR IN EUROPE. Boss Hanna returns from Europe swelling with pride and joy over the high standing of the Republican Administration with the monarchies of the cld country. He tells his country- men that Europe was wonderfully pleased with the success of the Republican party in the presidential elections and with its financial policy. He says that England heartily approves our course in taking and conquering the Philippines. This is good news for the President and the other Re- publican leaders. They will be delighted with the Boss’ testi- mony of European approval of Republican policies. They will cherish the token that their services :to Europe are appre- clated. It is a pity that American elections are not decided in Europe. In that caseethe Administration could be sure of a new lease of power and could profit by Boss Hanna’s European populerity. Of course, with his knowledge of the high esteem in which the McKinley Administration is held by the crowned heads, it is natural that Mr. Hanna should view with contempt the sentiment of the voters in the Eighth Missouri Congressional District, and should express a disdainful opinion of the views of the people of the West. = = “ . i i There are some exaggerations out in regard to the Missouri corn crop. One farmer says that between each row of corn in his field there iz a rick of shelled corn, the cobs being too short to hold all the corn that has grown this season, and he thinks from present. indications that his crop of shelled corn will exceed that of the corn on the cob. hah ih. _—_ = —_—-—— It is very important that the friends of the Administration shoul. report enthusiastically upon the wealth of the Philip- pines, and it is also important that the war sMould be brought to a speedy conclusion. = = ™ i The Government should study corn foods for the benefit of our standing army and the farmers who are producing so unprecedented wnd amazing crops. The Dreyfus case and our Phihppine troubles should go far toward teaching the world the folly of militarism. SLE a VYOST-DISPATCH SNAP SHOTS Mr. MtKinley can make our soil yield large crops, but he cal- not cure Mr. Hanna's ‘‘rheumatiz.”’ If our North American September is so roastful, what must be the torridity in, the Philippines in the early autumn? Because Mark Twain is going to live near an ex-President at Princeton, he dces not wish to be regarded as an ex-humorist. A congress of a®viculturists is to be held in Chicago next month.

Stories of more killings in Clay County, Kentucky, seem to tn- dicate that the Clay County volunteers for our glorious Philip- pine war have not yet departed for the front.

When a burglar wants to break into | Peruvian house he takes a sponge and a bucket of water and moistens the walls, which are covered with only a thin coat-. ing of mud and easily dissolve upon the ap- lication of moisture. Then when the mud s removed he takes a sharp knife and cuts the ore of split bamboo which serve as a substitute for lath. That easy litle operation produces a hole in the wall large enough for @ man to crawl through, and can be performed so silently that people a in‘the house will not be awak- ened. 4, HYPODERMIC PERFUME.

Remember, you are not to mention the subject to Madeline; if you do, madam, you and I will have a row!

And that very morning Blinks, his con- fidential servant, filled him with horror. He thad always beheld Blinks with a feeling of swbhdued awe, which he could not understand, that was probably due to the butler’s extraor- dinary seif-possession. That morning before Breakfast, as Mr. Gadkins sat in his study reading the paper, Blinks had entered with his cat-like tread, and, softly rubbing, his hands together, murmured in an apologetic manner: “T see as ’ow Mr. Bang its a-goin’ heast, sir.” “Going Fast? He has said nothing about it to me.

Mr. Gad- kins and wife entered the waiting room anid found that the Dovedale accommodatiun weculd leave in 10 minutes. “Hadn't we better get on the train, dear?’ usked his wife. ‘They may come at the last moment.” Gadkins assented, and they were forced to buy two tickets for Dovedale before they could enter the gate leading to the train shed. They were barely seated when a gong rang and the train began to move slowly from the depot. “Don't wet excited, love,’ said Gadkins. “They are surely on this train!’ Aud after giving the tickets to the con- ductor he searched the cars thoroughly? but was unable to disscover either Madeline or yous Bang. ; “T'll give it up'’ he groaned. “They've taken some other train!” At leugth, after a 45 mintwtes’ ride, they arrived at Dovedale and ascertained that a train would return to the city in fiye min- vies.

President Robert Aull] of the St. Louls Fair Association was at his desk in his office at the Fair Grounds on Tuesday afternoon, and he found time to tell all comers all about what was to happen at is to be held 2 to 7. **Perhaps,’” sa President Aull, “the most interesting feature about this year’s Fair will be the Interstate and Territory Cowboy Riding and Roping Contests for the Ch?mplonship of the orld. ‘“‘Heretofore there have been State con- tests of the kind, but this is the first time a roping contest open to the whole world has ever taken place, and the first time have been offered to the contestants. ‘Every one of the big Western States and Territories will have. representatives here, and even the best rough riders of the Buffalo Bill and other combinations of that character will be admitted to the competi- tion.”’ Some idea of the general interest mani- fested in the roping and riding contestes may be gleaned from the fact that material as- sistance has been rendered the project by ne following railroads and raliroad ofi- cC1lais: The Frisco Line, the M., K. & T.

Billy Catton Gives His Recollection of the Dead Billiard Player. Billy Cotton, who was the leading billlard- ist of St. Louis for many a day, last night talked of Napoleon Ives, the dead player. Said Billy: ‘Many claim that Scheefer deserves all the credit for making Ives a great master of billiards. That is only true in a measufe. Schaefer never showed Ives a shot in his life. for the simple reason that Schaefer cannot show anyone how to play the game. He can make any possible shot on the table and many that are well-nigh impossible. but he does not know how to teach others to do the same thing. Ives found this out before he hed been with the ‘wizard’ very long. “Schaefer was born with that gift of play- ing. Nobody had to teach him. He Knew the points the first time he picked up the cue and after that {t was simply a matter of practice. Not so with Ives. It was‘years of hard labor for him to learn the first prin- ciples of the game. He came into the game when the loa dius experts were playing balk line. Naturally he did not know anything about the old game of s.raight rail, and when I first saw him he cotgid run as manv at balk line as he could at straight rail. He bad never heard tell of the rai] nurse, ex- cepting In a vague sort of way. “Tves got into conversation with me about it onee, and I told him that he would never be a great expert until he had learned the alphabet of billiards. I took him over to a billiard table and there, Inside of a half hour, had shown him how to hold the balis along the rail for long runs. He saw thal he had missed something and that he hail started the game at the wrong end. He racticed the rail for a l ong time and this mproved his game more than 100 per cent the first time he went back to balk line. “Ives was satisfied that my teaching and advice made a Dilllard player of him and often toli me that he would never have amounted to much had he continued to play balk line without first earning the simple game of straight ratl That I believe to be true only in a measure, for Ives was a man of remarkable application and determina- tion and what he sought to do he was rea- sonably sure to accomplish.” Madison.

CIVIL RULER TO BE CHOSEN BY THE PEOPLE. But the Military Commander of the Island Is Supreme and Can Veto Any Act of the Civil Gov- ernment. WASHINGTON, Sept. 6.—Copies of Gen. Otis’ order granting home rule to the peo- ple of the Island of Negros were received by the State and War Departments to- day together with a constitution proposed by the inhabitants of the island, upon which they seek to have established for themselves a republican form of govern- ment. This action will be very carefully considered by the President in connection Ment of the Archipelago, which will be incorporated in his forthcoming message, but in the meantime the Government of e s will be conducted in accordance with the order issued by Gen.

INCONVENIENCE RESULTS FROM WASHINGTON AV. CHANGES. Destination of Cars Cannot Be Told by the Signs Displayed or the Street on Which It Is Found. St. Louls is squirming and perspiring in the tight grip of the street car syndicate. What Httle energy the exceedingly hot weather leaves is expended in trying to master the intricacies of the present sys- tem of running the trolley and cable lines regardless of routes formerly traversed ani without consideration of the beacon signs on the cars. The man who gets on the proper car the first attempt is indeed lucky, and iuckier still if he discovers his mistake before pay- ing one or more nickels. The trust undoubtedly has some system whereby it keeps track of the cars that ruli off their old routes, but few persons can comprehend it. The complication is due to the tearing up of Washington averue, where the United Ra‘lways is laying new rails. .That thor- oughfare is torn wp from Broadway tov Eighth street. The street is impassable on one side for that distance and no Cars run on it east of Eighth street. As a result, all the cars of the Lindell and Scullin systems which used to traverse Washington avenue are thrown into other streets. It ‘!s impossible to tell a car’s des- tination from the inscr.ption on its side or the street on which one tinds it downtown. If a passenger boards the wrong car be- tion he does not discover his error until he has paid his fare and found tirg the car is not going in the proper directicn tor bim. The Lindell cars run on Broadway and on Sixth street, as do the Carondelet ca The Bellefontaine cars Frank! n avenue and ail of them to wander around aimlessly. Why it is necessary for the trust to tear up three blocks at a time on Washingten avenue in order to put down new rails is not apparent. The: Third avenue cable road in New York was recently changed to an undereround electric road and the com- pany’s cars ran regularly during the re- construction. The local trust seemingly has ail the mod- ern appliances for tearing down and bulid- ing up street railroads, still the werk is not done witheut great inconvenience to tne rt ublic. There is a machine at work oa Washington avenue, which rips up the old track at wonderful speed and in a marvel- ous manner. It is operated by three. men, who simply give it a gmp on the rails, pull a lever, and the machine tears up 10 feet of track and snaps off the rails like they were pieces of kindling. The paving comes up with the rails and all the laborers have to do is to throw out the cobble sjerés and smooth the bed for the new rails. According to Robert E. McMath, president of the Board of Public Improvements, the trust is permitted to tear up as many blocks at a time as may suit it’s convenience. Under this ruling there is nothing to pre- vent the trust from rendering impassible every street traversed by its tracks, OLDEST POLICEMAN IS DEAD Edward Walsh of the Mounted Dis- trict Had Served in the Depart- ment Thirty-Three Years. run on seem Edward Walsh, the oldest policeman on the St. Louis force, died at his residence, 4146 Wise avenue, at 7 o’clock Wednesday morning, after a lingering illness.

Work of the Marriage License Clerk Began Early in the Morning and Ended Late. There seemg to be an affinity between Hymen and heat. Tuesday, the hottest day of the year, there were 38 Hcenses issued in St. Louls and six at Clayton. Business be- fan early. One couple routed a license clerk out of bed at 5 o’clock in order.to get a perm.t to wed. Hiere Is a list of the weddings at Clay- ton: George Steinkrueger and Miss Catherine Schneider, both of Pattofiviile, St. Louis County, were the first seekers after double blessedness. Next came Edward G. O'Meara, the Mis- souri Pacific train dispatcher of Kirkwood, and Miss Mary F. Daly of the same town. The third couple were St. Loulsans who had both passed the allotted three score and 10 years. John G. Woerner, a retired mer- chant tailor, living at 20% East Grand ave- nue, gave his age as 74 years, while his bride elect, Mrs. Anna Hourig, confessed to 7] a4, ‘ Miss Lillian Greppe, a pretty girl employed in an Olive street candy store, surprised her friends by skipping. away with Mr. lSmil lich, proprietor of a pharmacy at Leffingwell avenue and Wash street, and announcing on ‘her return that she was Mrs. Iieh. She has been living with her sister at 33807 Franklin avenue. The most romantic elopement of all was that of Miss Annie Newitt and Stephen E. Apperson. The bride, who has been vis-t- ing friends in St. Louis, is a daughter of P. T. Newitt, a wealthy citizen of Denver, Colo. Her husband is a conductor on the Jefferson Avenue Railroad line. Miss Ne- witt’s marriage was in deflance of her par- ents’ command and a dispatch from Den- ver says she will hardly be forgiven. She is ® vears old and pretty. William Coombs and Miss Alice K. Mel- cher. both of Wellston, were married by Judge Greensfelder. While Clayton was busy establishing a reputation, adjacent towns In Illinols were not entirely bereft of patronage in the hy- meneal line. Edward Prendergast, deputy United States collector of internal revenue, crack shot and aH-round sportsman, was married to Miss Marie Irish in Decatur. The bride’s parents knew of the event, but none of the groom's family nor his friends had the slightest inkling of his intention. The bride has visited in St. Louis several times. She is the daughter of M. C. Irish, general superintendent of the Wabash Din- ing Car Service Co. The St. Lous x of couple would probably still be 1 ircnorance of the event had not Mr. Pren- dergast telegraphed to relatives to have his trunk at Union Station Tuesday night. This aroused curiosity, and a large party went to the statiom to meet him. When Mr. Pren- dergast and his wife put in _ an appearance explanations were made. Mr. and Mrs. Prendergast will spend their honeymoon in New York. Thomas 8S. Collins and Miss Kate E, Mas- tersdn visited Alton-and were married by Tustice Nathan. Harry 8S. Dulitt and Miss Jane C. Parker went to Greenville and were married by udge Story. 4 elt Mver and Miss Mamie Brinkerhoff, hoth of Burkville, Ill., were married in ‘St. Louis. The groom is 66 years old and: the bride 16.

SOME OF THE ATTRACTIONS. Real Indians, Olympian Games, Beau- tiful Pictures and Many Works of Art.. rd Workmen are busy as beavers these hot September days preparing for the opening of the Expositicn next Wednesday night. Manager Gatennie expects everything will be in order by that time, and will bend all his energies to that end. The new feature of the Exposition this year is the sportsmen’s show in the Coli- seum, It is absolutely new in the West, al- though the East has hud exhibitions of the kind on a smaller scale. This one will include rte: Snag rg | dear to the sportsman’s heart, whether it be in the line of uatics, big game, cycling, olymplan?games, rifle practice, Indians and high diving. | To this end the Coliseum has been transformed. in the center is a big tank, at each) end of which are the tall platforms for the high divers. At the west end is an enormous ainting of Selkirk’s glacier, sent} by the Canadian Pacific Railroad. This/ will be dressed up with real Indian tepees and rea] trees, so that it will require a sha eye ta detect the line where the picture ds and the reality begins. Along the south side irre cages for w.ld animals and buildings for the exhibition of all manner of sporting oods. At the east end will be a platform or the Olympian games. On tHe north side there is a roller race track and booths for exhibits. There will be a real Indian encampment, and the Province of Quebec has sent some very fine pleces of the taxidermists’ art. These latter go straight from St. Louls to form a part of the Canadian exhibit at the Paris Expositicn. Our Canadian brethren are taking a great deal of interest in the St. Louis Exposition. Among the many novelties they will send is a water lo team, which will contest with a team from Chicago for prizes offered by the DPxposi- tion management. The team comes from Toronto. The business exhfbits this year are fully up to the standard set by past seasons. V%- itors wil! find that special pains and ex- traordinary tasie have been displayed this year. The art exhibit is rather better this year than for some years past. It includes some notable pictures. Chief among these, ‘“‘The Theater of Neno,”’ is by an American, Frank M. Du Mond. Of all the pictures at this year’s Paris salon this was wie first choice among ® that were selected as pos- sibilities for the St. Louis Exposition. It shows the interior of the Roman Coliseum, where an elephant and two tigers are en- gaged in deadly combat. _ The canvas is a large one. f the more than 400 pictures only six are by foreigners, but these are of warld-wide reputation. ‘There are several by Gustave Dore, two by Thomas Couture, an important canvas by Benjamin-Constant and a por- trait by Adrian Demont. The painting by Benjamin-Constant is one of the largest pictures of this year’s Ex- position and represents the episode in the month of Apri, 1493, when Columbus, hav- ing returned to Spain, was received by Ferdinand and Isabella with all of the dig- nities of a peer of the realm. An interesting canvas is the picture by B. Snell, the warships Brooklyn and Oregon driving the Colon ashore on the southern coast of Cuba—the final destruc- tion of the much vaunted Spanish fleet. The coliection contains several pictures illus- trating the late war with Spain, which will] awaken widespread interest. A large canvas by Humphrey Moore ‘Japanese Musicians,” is very brilliant in color and attractive in composition. ‘There are two pictures by young George inness, ‘““Thoe Crucifixion” and ‘“‘Intomb- ment,” which show he is worthily follow- ing in the footsteps of his noted father. Names which are familiar to all admir- ers of American art are represented, such’ as Alexander, who has two portraits, one being of Joe Jefferson in the character of Bob Acres, and J. H. Dolph sends a paint- ing of cats and dogs. special effort has been made. by the assistant director, in whose hands the en- tire charge of this year’s Exposition has been placed by the unfortunate ilMess of Director Qharies M.

Booth Has Not Heard Anything About a Sale or of a Plan to Shut Up the Property. rumor that the United States Arsenal, for many years a prominent point of inter- est In St. Louis, was to be closed, gained considerable credence recently. Much spec- ulation was indulged in, as it was known that various attempts to purchase the property have been made, but the Govern- ment had refused to sell. Maj. Charles A. Booth, Quartermaster in charge of the Arsenal, and Acting De- pot Quartermaster, said Wednesday morn- ing: ve heard nothing which would lead me to believe that there is any truth the story. On the contrary, the Secretary of War has repeatedly declined to enter- tain propositions to buy the buildings and grounds, and if the place is not sold it cer- tainly will not be shut up as it is filled t overflowing with supplies. I think I’m quite safe in ae the rumor, as the Arsenal is of essential importance just now.” BOTH HELD TO THE GRANDJURY. D. F. Reese and L. D. Goodner Must Answer to Charge of Counterfeiting.

County Treasurer Adolph Andel has fre- fused to pay the East St. Louis gradjurorss. It is expected that mandamus proceed- ings will be begun by East 8t. Louis. The dispute about payment grows out of the dispute between the County Board of Supervisors and Judge Cook of the East St. Louis City Court over the selection of the grandjury. The Board of Supervisors selected a prannsory for the East St. Louis Coust rom the county at large. When court was convened, Judge Cook -discharged them, telling them that as they did not lve in the limits of East St. Louis, they had no right to sit as granGdjurors in the City Court. The judge instructed Sheriff Barnickal to impanel a jury of citizens of East Bt. Louis, and not wish.ng to go to jail for contempt, the sheriff did it. County Treasurer Andel, in announcing that he will not pay the East St. Louts grandjurors, takes the position that if the County Board has no right to select grand- jurors. from the county at larze the county taxpayers cannot be required to pay the jury fees. : Alton has been having the samc K™w of that city a local court. Dressed in their best suits of clothes, | two Belleville boys ran away from their | homes Sunday and started for the Wild West. In the hope that they would re- turh, their parents did not make their dis- | appearance known until Wednesday. Fred Eggersmann, son of Mr, and Mrs. Henry F. Eggersmann, and William Willen- feld, son of Mrs. Margaret Willenfeld, are the boys. The former is 17 years oid and the latter is somewhat older. Since school closed Fred has been working about his father’s store on East Main street. Wii- liam was driver of a delivery wagon for Fuess, Espenhain % Fischer, a few doors away, and the boys became chums. A boy visiting in Beileville from Mon- tana a few weeks ago told them of the delights of living on the frontier and sug- leested that they could earn good wages 'on his father’s ranch. They decided to go, Fred's father heard of it and he sald he would not go. After dinner Sunday, Fred dressed in a black suit, a light fedora hat, a white shirt, standing collar and blue tie, left the house, saying he was going out with some of the boys. His father has not seen him since. About the same time William, also dressed in his Sunday best, left home with- out explanation. Fred d.d- not have more than 75 cents in his pocket, but William is said to have had about $2. Mr. Eggersman said Wednesday that Fred had never been away from home in “Bill” Tipton is again in the saddle. He is @ifer the poolroom which has been opened at Lake Bridge, half way between East St, Louis an‘ the bluffs, and says he will stay after it until it is closed. He has sworn out warrants before Justice Louis BE. Wangelin at Belleville against | Horace Enelish, Dennis Canty and divers other persons to him unkhown, charging them with operating a poolroom and gam- bling. The warrants have been placed in the hands of Sheriff Barnickol, who said Wednesday morning that he would serve , the warants if pessible during the day. ‘The accused will have a prelinvinary hear- ing before Justice ;Wangeiin probably Thursday. Tipton is said to have been gathering evi- dence against the men Which he is contident is sufficient to convict them. The men who are operating the resort deny that they are in violation of the law. They say that they are simply doing a com- mission business, 10 money being ex- changed at tle place. The alleged poolrocom is a remodeled dance hall adjoining Recklein's Lake Br.dge Saloon on the Beileville turnpike. It is built on piles in a small swemp. A good deal of money has been spent in making it at- tractive for the people wihovare tond of bet- ting on horses. Bince it opened two weeks ago the at- tendunce has been steadtly increasing.

One Died « Natural Death, One Was Killed by Accident and the Oth- : ers Succumbed to Con- stant Terror, CATALPA, Neb., Sept. 6.—In April, 188%, Tom Brownrigg swore over his father’s body to be revenged on his lynchers. Three weeks ago he killed the last of lt. on his jist at Dawson City, Alaska,, and then put a bullet through hjs own brain and fell dead across his yictim’s body. Detalis of the affair have ju ceived here in a letter from Daw Andrew Peterhoff, the mereanres widow. in the early eighties Brownrigs and his father located on a ranch in this (Holt) county. Tom, then a man of %, was gener. aliy liked, but his father began to be sus- pected of horse and cattle stealing. Fin. ally neighbors grew so firmly convinced of his guilt that they resolved to hang him. Tom was not home when the vigiance committee arrived, was being $t been re- on to Mrs. man's adjusted. Though un- he made a desperatet attemp But he was overpowered while his father’s execlition was ™l, released his first act was to cut down the body and satisfy himself that life was extinct. Then with hand raised to heaven and tears streaming down his face, he vowed never to rest until the last lyncher was in his grave. There was go little danger of legal pro- ceedings against them that the vigilantes made no attempt to conceal their identity, but the evident sincerity of young Brown- rigg’s declaration alarmed them. So he few days later, escorted to death. noose arme at and ‘omplet When was Seized the pain of county line and warned never to return on our days later Tom galloned into Catal- pa, forced this Horse through the doorway of a saloon owned by Albert Wathier, one of the vigilantes, blew the proprietor’s briins out with a shotgun and fled, leaving on the bar a slip of paper with a list of 11 of his father’s lynchers, with a line drawn through Wathier's name. The party num- bercd nparly 20, but Brownrigg probaly failed to recognize all of them, About three weeks later Vincert Algood, another on the list, was found dead on the range, with a buillet-hole in his back. No one doubted that he had been shot by Brownrieg from ambush. It was two years before the avenger Was next heard of. At the end of that period Walter Andrus, a third of the lynchers, was brained in his cabin with an ax. He | lived alone in an Isolated spot, and Brown- rige might not have been suspected but for the discovery beside the man's body of another of the fatal lists, with his own name and those of Wathier and Algood checked off. About 18 months Richard McDougal, another of the Vi- gilantes, was killed in Crockett County, where he had moved from Catalpa. Hie was shot as he entered his barn one evening. There was nothing connect- ing Brownrige directly with this murder, but as no Attempt was made at robbery and McDougal had not another known ene- iy, the residents of Holt County were convineed that he was the criminal. William Maline, the fifth victim, fell at Chinook, Mont., a year later. As in the of McDougal! there was no positive that Brownrigg killed him, A few however, he met a believed to be Brownrigs ward him, but the suspect Malone mentioned the in- after Andrus’ death, jate cuse proof whom he and started to turned and fled. Iman iecident to a friend, armed himself and went about his business. Two nights afterward he was shot dead on his own doorstep. In about seven months mere Brownrissé again visited Holt County. This time F. W. Dwyer was the victim. Dwyer lived on a farm some distance north of Catalpa. Early one morning as he started about his usua] chores, he 82w a man apparently try- ing to hide behind a straw stack, Dwyer returned to his house, gecured a revolver and started out to Investigace. When he approached the stack the stranger stood up and opened fire. Dwyer recogn.zed Brownrigg and returned the shots. In a moment Dwyer fell, sBot through the lungs. A week later he died. After the killing of Dwyer years elapsed Brownrigg Was not theard from, Toward the latter part of 1896 news was received of the mysterious disappear- ance at Tacoma of Frank J. Sullivan, a seventh member of the lynching party. Many people suspected Brownrigg again, but there was no evidence conneciing him with the case. Ben J. Fiies, the eighth of the group, died in his bed some time before Dwvyer was murdered, and Peter Flint, the ninth, also met a natural death shortly after that event. He is said actually to have worried himself into his grave through fear of Brownrigg. He refused to leave home alone or after dark, never sat down except with st back te a wall and went constantly armed. Martin Woolsey, the last but one of the eleven, was killed by a fall from his horse. Andrew Peterhofft was the eleventh.

He had the reputa- tion of being an excellent surgeon, and was steadily promoted until he reached the rank of Major. For many years he has been stationed at the Presid‘o, San Francisco. Several months ago he reached the age limit of 62 years, and was retired, accord- ing to army regulations, with a yearly al- owance of $2000, but the people in the Paymaster’s Department were thunder struck when Maj. White quietly, but firmly, announced that he would not accept a cent of the money. Here wag a question which had never be- fore been brought to the attention of the Government cashiers, as they had never met a man who had refused to receive the coin of the realm when it was proffered for long and meritorious service. They were in a quandary. The money was set aside for Maj. White every month, but to all their pleadings and expostulations he turned a deaf ear, and refused to relieve them by taking it off their hands. It kept piling up month by month, but atill the resolute Major re- fused to relieve the situation. ° When he was retired he came to Pitts- burg and for a couple of months stopped at the Duquesne Hotel, but had his mail sent to the residence of a maiden sister who resides at 43 Main street. He was very retiring and made few acquaintances about the hotel. When telegram after tel- egram was sent to him here asking him to take the money which was lying ifn the Government vaults at Washington for him he steadily refused, and also declined to enter into any explanation of his course ex- cept to say that he did not need it. While} stationed in San Francisco the Major did not neglect opportunities to acquire wealth when they presented -themeelves, and the result was that he accumulated a great deal of money, most of which is’ invested in ranches. For some time Maj. White has been ar- ranging his affairs in such shape that he could leave for a tour of South Africa, and last Friday he left Pittsburg to sail for the Southern Continent, but instructed the letter carriers to deliver his mail to a friend in Lawrenceville, which has been done, and already several communications have come from the War Department for the Major. His sister, Miss White. who lives on Main street, started for Europe about the first of July. The action, or rather inaction, of the Major puzzles the average person who fails to understand why any man would refuse to take money from the United States Treasury when he could have it by simply reaching for it. Most of those who have any opportunity to get on the Government payroll or pension list claim that they do not get enough, and bewail the fact that their just dues are withheld. Not so with Major White, however, and a friend of his in Lawrenceville intimated yesterday that he had left the country to ¢ M4 > ’ oO escape the im- portunities of the Government paymasters who were anxious for him to clear their books by taking the cash off their hands. This is said to be the only pas i on record on the army list. a ae SHUT OUT OF WHITE SCHOOLS Negroes of Alton Make Their Annual Effort to Have Mixed Schools, but Fail Again.

Mrs. Davis has recovered from the terri- ble physical as well as nervous shock en- tailed by her adventure. Her baby is well and happy again. But the mother will never again attempt the trip which s0 nearly cost her life and that of the child. It is a common praetice for the settlers along the nearer shore of Vancouver Island during the soft summer days to row or sall across to the historical islands of San Juan and Lopez, and pay the.r neighborly re- spects to the American cousins resident there. Mrs. Davis has relatives living on San Juan, and without the slightest misap- prehension, she crossed over recently to pay them a visit, taking her baby with her and accompanied only by an aged boatman, Mr. Baylis. No serious misadventure marked the trip going. It was on the re- turn that disaster overwhelmed the little The arrangements for the rest of the day provide for a visit to the breweries in the afternoon, where the official photo- gaph will be taken, and a theater party at the Suburban at night.

Boat will leave wharf again promptly at 7:15 o’clock for a moonlight trip down the river. Mu- sic, singing, dancing and a few specialties by the “Famous Garden Minstrels’’ have been arranged for. An abundance, of re- freshments will be provided. Only those wearing badges will be admitted to boat; this does not apply to ladies accompanying guests. The reports of the secretary and the treasury were read at the session ruesday afternoon, when the convention had as- sembled at 3 o'clock, Secretary Naylor, in his report, showed that the largest in- crease in membership had been in the San Antonio branch, and that North Dakota was credited with spending the most money with the National Association. The gain in the number of associations during the year was 21, making a total of 297 now in the United States. National Treasurer Daniel Delaney of Cincinnati, O., in his report, showed- the total receipts of the assoctation to be $11,- 318.18: the balance last year, $2845.19; ex- penses during the year, $5890.97, and the bal- ance now in the treasury to be $8282.40.

A epirited discussion followed on the advisability of securing a more commo- dious and cooler place of meeting and a committee was named to confer with the St. Louls committee on arrangements with that end in view. It was contended that the weather was too warm to rmit of tne crowding that the quarters then occupied compelled. No fault was found with the local committee; the idea was that cir- cumstances had arisen that uired the change. The committees were instructed to report to the convention when it as- sembled at 9 o’clock Wednesday morning. They secured the front dining room of the u thern.

There had been a strong sea_ wind blow. ing up the straits, and the tide-rips were unugually numerous and eo: The frail little boat had gone with difficulty about half the distance from San Juan to Ten- Mile point, at the entrance to Cadboro Bay, when an oar snapped in the battle with a particularly vigorous eddy and its secretary, New Jersey. Several important changes were made in the _ constitution, one being an increase of $200 per year in the salary of the secretary, who hereto- fore has been getting $600 per year. An- other change was the abolishment of the vote by proxy at future meetings of the order.

All that Boatman Baylis could do was to keep his distress signal up and bale the boat, despite which both he and Mrs. Davis were kept wet to the skin. To au ent the terrors of the position, both provisions and water gave out during the morning of the second day, the boat having in the mean- bers permanently disabled or their famil- | ies in case of death. BARBERS ARE REGISTERING Only the New Comers Need Pass an Examination, but All Must Get on the Books. There is no provision in the law licensing barbers for the regulation of the man who shaves himself. Therein, the professional manipulator of the razor and the strop failed. He must pass an examination and submit to harrowing questions about his methods and the diseases ircident to the trade, but the fellow who scrapes his own chin.and thus cheats the man of the striped pole out of his well authenticated rights hag no limit put upon his privileges. ‘This may seem pecullar, as the barbers’ bill wa sdrawn up by the real barbers, but it was doubtless an cversight. The barber has been fighting the self-shaver for cent@- ries, and it really seems strange that he should nave lost the opportunity that this bill offered, not to abolish him. Howeve!r, the barber did take care of him- self in another way. He provided that al] of his trade who had been at it previous to May 6 could cuntinue by simply regi#tering and paying for a license. Those who have come into the State since then, or have been graduated from ‘“‘cclleges” or have served their time as apprentices, may be li- censed if they can pass th eexamination that the board prepares for them. The board, of course, will not tell what the na- ture of this examination will be, and it wil] not even examine:any barbers at its stay here this time, as it will be too busy li- censing the old ones to pay any attention to new ones. The old ones are registering rapidly, and the books of the board are be- coming well filled with naems. The Boad of Examiners consists of J. Hanks, president; J. . Ryan, secretary, ™ Boy orsting, treasurer. The presi- dent is also president of the Boss Barbers’ Protective Association and vice-president of the State Barbers’ Association. Mr. Ryan is président of the journeymen’s or- ganization, which he organized, and was last year delegate to the national conven- tion in Memphis. Mr. Hanks has held every office in the Kansas City Journey- en's Union. ag hy board departs Friday, it will not hold an examination in this city for three months. and during that time all barbers who have not certificates of reg- istration are Hable to arrest.

Then it worked slowly back again, until perhaps two miles off Seabird Island on the fourth morning. Its occupants’ strength had by this time been spent and they were lying in the bot- tom of the boat, half covered with water and resigned to death. The_ rising and falling object on the surface of the straits aroused the curtosity of some Indians en- camped on the reservation ground at Sea- bird Island. They towed the boat back their camp, warmed and nursed the suf- ferers back to life and restored them in the evening to their distracted relatives at Cadboro Bay. Extravagant Dress and Women.

The president of the concern is David Jenkins, who came to Greentown from Findlay, O., several years ago. Greentown is in the heart of the gas belt and the Chicigo Natural Gas Co. has its great pumpin station just west of the city limits. This pumping station is with- in itself a govd-sized town. The company has built rows of beautiful oqttages for its employes, each surrounded by its velvet lawn and fairly embowered with flowers. N. A. Covalt, postmaster of Greentown, ives it as his opinion that the reason g eentown is enabled to get along withou government is because the citizens are a quiet, that everybody has work and, thre- fore, has not time tc make any trouble and the further fact that they have a good class of citizens.
