CITIZENS SURPRISED EVEN AS MONTOJO WAS ON MAY 1, 1898 But the Plans of the Post-Dispatch Worked Like a}- Charm, Towns Were Notified, Cannon Boomed, Bells Were Rung and Whistles Shrieked. Ap, a» Admiral Dewey sailed into St. Louis Tues- day morning just as he sailed into the har- bor of Manila on the morning of May 1, 1898—without warning. But it didn’t take the patriots of this city as long to wake up to his presence as !t did the Spaniarda When the word flashed into the Post- Dispatch office that the Olympia had been sighted outside New York harbor, it was sent on to the hundreds of towns that had requested the Post-Dispatch to notify them of his arrival, the Mayor was notified, the fire-belis began to ring, and then every whistle in town turned loose, making 4 clanging, shrieking welcome for the great Admiral. At 10 o'clock the first gun of the salute boomed from the top of the hill which stand the Armory of Light Battery A, and sixteen others followed at intervals of ex- actly 30 seconds. Although the Admiral took the country by parpriee, the welcome was none the less hearty for that. The telegrams notifying the towns on the Post-Dis tch Mst were on the wire be- fore eight o'clock. The Mayor was noti- fied at the same time. A few moments later the fire alarm gongs struck twelve times as a signal to the companies to ring their belis. Then the whistles joined the uproad. The noise from the whistles was greatest along Mill Creek Valley, where hundreds of loco- motives joined the factories in increasing the din. In the midst of the noise of the bells and the whistles, the reverberating of the gun on the Armory hill was plainly dis- tinguishable, as Lieut. E. B. o and his little company, hastily collected, fired it with the pesutarity of clockwork. Lieut. Eno had laid aa to fire the ga- lute in style at City all Square, Thurs- day. He had picked the most proficient men in the battery for this patriotic serv- ice and they had orders to report in spick and span condition. The arrival of the Admiral two days ahead of time spoiled these plans. But Lieut. Eno always knows where to place his hand on enough men to serve a gun and when the Post-Dis- patch notified him of the Olympia’s arrival early Tuesday morning he didn’t lose an instant in notifying enough men to fire the salute at the Armory. here was not time to get horses and enough men to take the guns to City Hall Square, The LIdeutenant left home without his breakfast. His first thought was to notify First Sergeant MacGinnitle and instruct him to notify enough men to serve a couple of — Lieut. Eno then hurried to the Armory, Grand avenue and Hickory street, Felix ilkinson, who sleeps at the Armory, was on nd, and he at once prepared the am- munition and with the assistance of the Lieutenant, who bore a hand like a pri- vate, and Eas W. Tillson, the guns were run out and prepared for service. Before 10 o'clock, Sergt. MacGinnitie, Jo- seph Jennerman and Chouteau Scott had arrived, making six men. Lieut. Eno de- cided not to wait longer, but to fire the salute with one gun. While these preparations for the salute were going forward, Dewey, a black-and- tan bull terrier, which is the common prop- erty of the artillerymen in the battery, stood by and watched the proceedings with a great deal of interest. He was very brave so long eas he didn’t know what was go- ing to happen. But at the sound of the first n, wey belied his name and tuck- ing his tail between his legs sought ref- uge from the terrifying sound under a box in the darkest corner of the quarters. Promptly at 10 o'clock Lieut, Eno as- signed the men to their places. He acted as ner, Sergt. MecGinnitie, as No. 1, Seiadited the swab, Joseph Jennerman as No. 2 passed the cartridges to him as they elivered to the gun by L. W. Till- . & Chouteau Scott as eon as No. 8 handled t ’ The shots followed each other at inter- Tir teen Grandma Tale eeeeee ABOUT.. eee GRAPE-NUTS. eccce . A man said, when he was a boy his andma used to brown some slices of read and pound them up in an old mortar and feed them with milk tq his brothers and himself. He remarked that he believed Grape- Nuts, the famous food, was made in the same way, but a gentleman in the party remarked that he had _investi- ted Grape-Nuts carefully and found that the grain from which it was made was prepared by various processes of long ing, warmth and time, by which the peculiar element under the shell of wheat and barley is developed. This ele- ment is called diastase, and its work is to change the starch of grains into grape- sugar. This same process is gone through with in the human body when any whole grain preparation is used, such as rolled wheat or oats, or entire wheat bread. But the trouble is that so many people are weak in their intestinal di- on and bread and the starch-contain- cereals are not properly digested, producing gas and bowel com- ts, often ending in appendicitis or difficulties. Grape-Nuts foodbe- pre-digested mechanically before go- into the human body is ready tor and easy assimilation and people weak digestion can thus obtain the value from a healthful and most img natural food.

This is as quick time as one gun can be fired eafely. he seventeenth cart- ridge was broken, but Sergt. MacGinnitie did not hesitate a moment to ram it home, although one spark in the breech of the gun would have crippled him for life. While the salute was being fired it and the whisties and bells gave notice to the town, and bunting began to aypeer on business houses and residences. e 6tars and stripes flew from windows and flag- staffs all over town. Pictures of Dewey appeared in windows. Small boys brought out their tin horns and lent their lung pow- er to the general uproar. St. Louis could not welcome the Admiral in person, but it could and did sound a wel- come with its lungs, its whistles, its belis and its guns. The demonstration was a Spontaneous expression of joy at the safe arrival of the man who has done more than any other to make the United States respected on the sea. Bandmaster Innes immediately arranged to play as the opening pieces of his after- noon concert at the Exposition “Hail to the Chief’ ,, and “When Dewey Comes Salling Home,” the latter being Post-Dispatch music. Mayor Ziegenhein got word of the Ad- miral’s arrival soon after 7 o’eclock from the Post-Dispatch, and he immediately or- dered that e fire bells be rung. Fred Ziegenhein, the Mayor's secretary, hurried to the office, but he was not there before Julius Wurzburger, who was mourn- ing because business arrangements had Nh aa his attendance pon the cclebra- -— New York. ullUS Was not at a loss to know why the Admiral had come in ahead of O mcs He said the reason was that Dewey wished to clean his ship and put everything in order for the celebration.

CITES THE SHERMAN ACT. —_—_—_—_— CORRECTS A MISSTATEMENT IN A LETTER TO PINGREE. Congress, the Attorney-General De- clares, Has No Power to Regu- late Business Carried on Whol- ly Within One State. WASHINGTON, Sept. 2%.—Attorney-Gen- eral Griggs has written the following reply to a letter recently received from Goy. Pin- gree of Michigan: “I am in receipt of your letter of the Zist inst., asking me to send ydu a copy of my ‘opinion to the effect that under the Constitution of the United States Congress cannot enact a law which would be effective in suppressing trusts, so-called.’ In reply I beg to say that I have never rendered either officially or unofficially any opinion of this kind. On the contrary, this de partment has been engaged in bringing nu- merous suits in the United States courts under the Sherman act of July 2, 1890, en- titled, ‘An act to protect trade and com- merce against unlawful restraints and mo- nopolies,’ in several of which cases, noto- riously that against the Transmissouri Freight Association, 166 U. S., 290. and that against the Joint Traffic Association, 171 U. S., 505, the result has been the suppression by decree of the court of the offending agreement or association. You may possibly have reference to a letter of mine to a private citizen, pub- lished several months ago in the news- papers, wherein I[ called attention to the fact that the only jurisdiction that Congress has over combinations or contracts in re- straint of trade, was in relation to those which directly affected interstate commerce. That this is true, and that this is the full extent of the Sherman trust act, you will ascertain by reading the decision of the United States Supreme Court in the case of Hopkins ve. the United States, 171 U. S.., 578, and the case of the United States vs. E. C. Knight Co., 156 U. S.. 1. “You are, doubtless, aware that it is not the right or function of the Federal Gov- ernment to interfere with business trasac- tions carried on within the several States, except upon some ground expressly author- ized by the constitution. Congress can reg- ulate directly that which we understand by ‘interstate commerce,’ but it has no power to regulate or control business or commerce carried on wholly within the limits of a State. “TI have called matters, not because I assume that you are ignorant of them, for you doubtless understand them well, but only in order to explain to you that I have not given, and could not possibly have given, any opinion of the purport expressed in your letter.’ LILBURN M.

He had charge of a large territory in the Northwest for a St. Louis tobacco house. His home was in St. Paul. He was about 38 years old. He was well known in 8t. Louis, in Jefferson City and over the State. He was for several years a clerk in the Department of State at Jefferson City. He was a nephew of Secretary of State Lesuetlrr, who has gone to Des Moines to take charge of the remains. Mr. Shields was married in 1890 to Miss Tressie Nesbit, daughter of a banker of Schell City, Neb., who survives him. Hs father was a well-known river man. “Snap Shot Sal.” CANTACUZENES READY TO SAIL.

My own experience has been such that I feel that I can spéak with some knowledge of the subject. “For about ten years I was affticted with a severe nervous disorder, which was so great that sleep became an un- known thing to me without the use of opiates. I was a confirmed coffee drink- er at this time, but had never thought that had anything to do:with the diifi- culty. “After coming to Clncago to live 1 was told by an acquaintance, who had been a similar sufferer from nervousness, that he discovered it was caused by the use of coffee, and when he made that discovery, gave up the coffee and took up the use of Postum Food Coffee and was completely restored. His argument sounded so logical, I was determined to make the experiment, and to my _ surprise, upon leaving off the coffee habit | commenced to improve. This improvement has con- tinued until now I am in complete health and sleep well and naturally. I always advise patients suffering from nervous trouble to abandon the use of coffee and use Postum, for I know what I am talk- ing about on that subject. “Occasionally private families do not prepare Postum well, that is, they fail to allow a sufficient amount of time for boil- ing. It requires more boiling than coffee, but the care well repays, for the beverage is delightful to the taste and wonderfull nourishing.” Maggie F. Church, No. 5 E. 33d Place, Chicago, II.

As she fell the rope formed a noose about her throat and as her weight came upon it, it was drawn tight around her neck. She was in such a position that she could not regain her feet. The rope was drawn so tightly around her neck that she coald not call for help. Her struggies oniy re- sulted in the rope being drawn the tighter. She slowly strangled to death.

Cella, Who Lectured Aganist Catholicism, Has Joined That Church. Special to the Post-Dispatch. ST. JOSEPH Mich., Sept. 2%.—The Rev. Thomas A. Cella, Method'st minister and lecturer, who has been lecturing in various cities against the Catholic Church, became a Catholic last night. About eight months ago, while passing through this city on his way West, Cella attended the regular Sunday éervices at St. Joseph Catholic Church here and lis- tened with much interest to the sermon delivered by the Rev. James J. Gore of this city. After services Cella called up- on Father Gecre, declarin that he was conscience stricken and wished to be ad- mitted into the Catholic Church. After six months of instruction by Father Gore, Cella, with four other converts, was bap- tized last night and became a Catholic. Cella’s home is in Baltimore, Md.

Stockholders Still Holding Out Against the Trust Owners. James Campbell, the representative of the minority stockholders in the Broaiway Cable Line, returned Tuesday after an ab- sence of a week, during which time the affairs of. his associates have been in a state of suspense. He said Tuesday morn- ing that there was nothing new to report; that the United Railways Company had not accepted the last proposition :naue by the minority and that no answer had been received to it. It was learned on the outside that the United Company at its’tast meétinzg had had the matter under codnsiieration, Sut had adjourned sine die without acting upon it. Word was sent that it would nut De accepted, but the minority asked that it be considered further, and it is still in statu quo. The difference between the minority stockholders of this line and the Consoli- dated Company is less than $30,000. it is as- serted, and as one man said Tuesday, “‘lt seems :like a small thing for the United Company to haggle over.’" If the big com- pany does not buy out the smaller storck- holders, it will have to maintain a sep- arate corporation for the Broadway line, with a full set of books, and all earnings on that line will have to be kept apart from the rest of the system, and’ the stockholders will be paid on the earnings of that line alone. It would seem that the Browns would rather turn over to the United Company a complete system, but they can deposit their holdings with the trustee under the mortgage instead of selling the line under the mortgage, if they so desire, and give the buyers the control of the road, though not the full ownership, just the same.’ UNDER ARREST IN CHICAGO. J. F. Brady Charged With Conducting a Lottery. J. F. Brady was arrested in Chicago Mon- day -by the Federal authorities on the charge of running a lottery, but he will be tried in this city if he can be extradited. He is badly wanted in St. Louis by a crowd of four men, who won $15,000 fin a lottery they say Brady ran in thig city last year. Brady, they assert, worked under the name of M. Ottens & Co., and they made the prize-winning in his lottery. They never could collect the money, and they have been his nemesis ever since. Lotteries are a felony in ‘Missouri, and T. P. Cun- ningham, one of the victims, gays he will eend Brady up if he can get him back here. He swore out the warrant. Brady, it is asserted, at one time operated éxtensively in Kansas City, under the Ot- tens name, TWO EXPELLED BY CHURCH. Baptists’ Trouble in Monroe City Leads to Rigorous Measures. MONROE CITY, Mo., Sept. 26.—At the meeting of the congregation of the First Baptist Church last night, after long and heated discussion, Dr. ‘Thomas Hixon and Judge N. L. Hume were expelled.

He is now at the City Hospital suffering from carbolic acid poisoning. He may not recover. Dennis is 23 years old. He met a hand- some girl at a ball a year ago an@l was smitten with her. She was not only pretty but graceful and Dennis escorted her home. But as time wore on her love for Dennis seemingly grew cold and bracelets, friend- ship hearts, or rings failed to change her. One day Dennis read an effusion of Petie uinn, who had just parted from his ‘‘pet- tie’ and he took fresh courage. But the old heart aches came back and daily Dennis became more despondent. But as he is struggling to recover he realizes his folly and says: “I'm a mark for doing this and I guess I won't try it soon again. Wonder what the gang will say. fell, I'l tell you I used to think a man who wanted to kill himself was a fool, and that’s what he is, too.”’ “Snap Shot Sal.” DR. LEVERTY’S AIRSHIP.

E. Sullivan. HIS .CONDITION IS SERIOUS. WOMAN REGRETS SHE DID NOT KILL HIM. He Is a Motorman and She Cahrges Him With Being the Father of Her Six-Months’ Old Baby. When Willlam E. Sullivan courted the affection of ‘Miss ‘Mary Shields he did not, perhaps, realize that some day there must come a severance of their relations. And then her love turned to hate, and Mary Shields sought to kill him. The attempted murder occurred Monday evening on a Southern Electric car at Sev- enth and Mullanphy streets, as told in an extra edition of the Post-Dispatch. In her arms the woman held a six-month-old baby of whom she claims Sullivan is the father. She fired the shot as Sullivan was about to start his car. The bullet entered his right hip and ranged downward. He is now at the City Hospital. His condition is serious. Sullivan is 30 years old and has worked for the Southern Electric Rallway Com- pany nearly ten years. Mary Shields boarded at 1721 South Ninth street. She is a daughter of Geurge Shields, a carpenter of Falmouth, Ky. She has lived in St. Louis about nine years. The woman is now a prisoner in Matron Kemper’s apartments at the Four Courts, Though she declares she is 29, she looks much older. She lacks refinement or beau- ty, and her manner does not create a fa- vorable impression. “I hope Sullivan may die before night,’ she said to the ‘Post-Dispatch. ‘‘He is a wretch and I am sorry I did not kill him outright. “The courts wouldn’t help me and I de- termined to take the law into my own hands. “IT became acquainted with Sullivan three years ago. At the time I boarded at the same house where he was on South Broad- way. I left there after a week and did not eee Sullivan until a year later. He then asked permission to call on. me and it was granted. “He promised to marry me. He kept put- ting me off all the time and finaliy jilted me. “Last March the baby was born and I sent word to Sullivan that | wanted to see¢ him. I told him that as it was as much his child as mine he ought to help mé sup- port it. Instead of sympathy he. heaped curses ‘on me and declared he would not give me a penny. Thoughts of avenging the wrong he had done me then entered my mind, but I wae advised to go to the courts and enter a breach of promise suit against him. The petition was filed last spring. It was for $10,375 damages. “For spite Sullivan gewore out summons against me, saying I had. dis- turbed his peace. That was more than I could stand. ‘I will settle with him one way or the other,’ I said to myself as left the house. I got an his car at Barry etreet, and, while we were riding uptewn, Ll asked the conductor if he wouldn't tell Sullivan I wished to speak to him. Sul- ivan wouldn't come inside and so I waited. When he again refused, at Howard street, and the conductor went away I Shot him. If he hadn't grabbed me and beaten me over the head with the pistol I would have put other bullets in his body, for I shot to kill, and my one regret is that I didn't succeed,.’”’ Sullivan ie a handsome young fellow. He has dark, curly hair and blue eyes. He is Fadiucated and his manners are polished. {t is not surprising that Mary Shields eared for him. ‘I didn’t promise to marry Mary Shields,”’ he said. “because I knew she had met other men long before she knew me. Then she stopped about a week at the boarding house and as she got too familiar with me lI left there. I did not see her until a year after- ward, She got on the car every day for a week, inviting me to call on her. Rut others were all the while calling to see er. “Since the child was born, she has per- secuted me.

Special to the Post-Dispatch. NEW YORK, Sept. 26.—It can be stated on the best of authority that it has been definitely settled by the Repwbliztina State leaders to support Lieutenant-Governor Timothy L. Woodruff for the Vice-Presi- dential nomination. “Elihu Root is a good man,’’ said Senator Piatt, “but I do not believe he will accept the nomination for Vice-President. Lieuten- ant-Governor Woodruff is also a good man and it is possible that the Nghtning -may strike him. Gov. Roosevelt has positively declined to be a candidate for the Vice- Presidency. The Governor would like to be a candidate for President in 1904. “It is admitted that Vice-President Ho- bart will not be the nominee of the Re- publican party in 1900 for the Vice-Presi- dency. His physical condition is the reason for this. It was this knowledge of Vice- President Hobart’s condition that led to the talk in political circles a few days ago of the probable nomination of Gov. Roose- velt for the Vice-Presidency. But the Gov- ernor will not accept the nomination. He has made up his mind if he runs for any office in 1900 it will be for Governor. The political slate with reference to his fate now reads: e ‘1900, Governor; 1904° President.” The members of the family of Vice-Pres!i- dent Hobart continue to deny that he is so ill as to be out of training for renomina- tion. His improvement in health, they say, has been steady since he left Washington, except for a relapse at Normanhurt, His brother-in-law, Hobart Tuttle, spoke authoritatively for him yesterday. ‘The story that Mr. Hobart will decline re- nomination is absolutely untrue,” said Mr. Tuttle. : “Is the Vice-President a victim of Bright's disease?’ asked the reporter. “Emphatically no,’’ replied Mr. Tuttle. His allmentgis a general breaking down from overwork. All he needs Is rest. “Snap Shot Sal.” APPLE CROP DAMAGED. Wind Has Stripped Many of the Michi- gan Orchards. ST.

Many apple trees were twisted and broken, and_ in many instances entire trees were wrenched from the ground. Leading growers estimate that fully one-fourth of the apple crop has been blown from the trees, and that 100,000 bushels of apples will be a total lose. — ee ee Se Telegraphing to Mars.

Window _ ee THEY WILL BE RELEASED FROM PRISON rs FEW DAYS. STORY TOLD BY ENGLISHMEN. They Say That Three American §ol- diers Captured by Filipinos Have Joined the Insurgents. MANILA, Sept. 26.—The two Englishmen, who assert that they were shipwrecked ina small open boat near Bigan, at the northern end of Luzon, brought a message from the insurgent General, Pantellon Garcia, that 14 American prisoners, who are now held at Tarlaca, will be released on Tuesday or Wednesday. The delay in releasing the prisoners, as promised several days ago, is due to the fact that the Filipinos wish to furnieh the men with new clothing when they set them free. The Englishmen state further that iieut. J. C. Giitlmore and the captured boat’s crew from the Yorktown are still at Bigan, but wfll be released later in ac- cordance with the decision of the F:lipino Congress and. the subsequent decree of Aguina.do providing for the surrender of all American prisoners. The admitted purpose of the Filipinos in thus freeing the Americans is to impress foreign powers. The Englishmen say that Lieut. Glillmore and his men are not being treated well. They are only receiving B® cents day each for rations. The released Englishmen assert that three Americans who were taken prisoner have accepted commissions in the insurgent army. One of the three is said to have been a sergeant, but his regiment is unknown: another is said to have been a corporal in the California regiment, while the third is a neero. Five officers of the Japanese Army are assisting the insurgents in their war prepar- ations. The Filipino authorities sent word that no trace can be found of Capt. Rockefeller of the Ninth Infantry, who disappeared in April and was supposed to have been cap- tured. The railroad bridges in insurgent territory have been washed out, especially the one at Bandan, above Taralac, and the insurgents are having difficulty in supplying the troops in the immediate front of the American line. The insurgent army has a heterogenous supply of arms. Sometimes there are four types of rifles to a regiment. The main resistance to the American ad- vance is to be made at Taralac. On the way to the American lines the Englishmen were taken on a Wide detour in the insurgent front and were thus unable to see the rebel defenses, Wich are re. puted to be strong.

CHANGE TO BE MADE ———— | The President Waiting to Hear More | Fully From the Admiral. WASHINGTON, Sept. 26. Coincident with the arrival of Admiral Dewey the ru- mors about Gen. Otis’ recall have been re- vived. It is again reported that his re- call has actually been decided upon. There has also been a rumor lately that Gen. Brooke was to leave Cuba shortly and as it is now said that a Major-General is to be sent to the Philippines, there is some disposition to regard that as Gen. Brooke's future berth. The basis for all this gossip seems to be the report that Admiral Dewey has a or opinion of Gen. Otis. This report has iate- ly been revived and repeated In a number of ways. It is generally believed that the Admiral will have much influence with the Administration and his views on the Phil- ippines policy will be anxious] sought. A strong impression prevails that when he gives his opinion it will not be favor- able to Gen. Otis. There is to be a con- ference at the White House soon, at, which the President will meet the Admiral and the Philippine Commission and will, it is said, at that conference may result in: some alterations In the military policy in the Philippines.

While no one need be tin the least bit astonished at the breaking off of the en- gagement between Prince Maximilian of Baden and the Grand Duchess Helene of Russia, yet there is no truth whatever in the absurd story, according to which the rupture has been brought about for the purpose of making a match between the young princess and Grand Duke Michael of Russia, youngest brother of the Czar. True, that would be a most advantageous union for the grand duchess, since, owing to the moribund condition of the Czaro- witz George Michael has a great chance of succeeding to the throne of Russia. But unfortunate:y, the Grand Duke Michae and the Grand Duchess Helene are first cousins, Helene being the daughter of Grand Duke Viadimir, who was brother to the late Czar. Now, the Russian National Chureh, or, as it is more usually styled, the Orthodox Greek rite, absolutely forbids any unions between first cousins, and un- der no circumstances grants dispensations, eo that there is not the slightest chance of any match ever taking place between the young couple. At the same time ft is not surprising that the engagement between Prince Max of Baden and the young princess should have come to an end, Prince Max is @ dull and dissipated man of %&, who hae lived fast, and who represents not what fe best but what ik worst In the German cavalry officers.

A Jetter which appeared in the New York McKinley organ and reprinted in Monday's Post-Dispatch makes it clear that he will be made to bear the odium of failure. - All accounts from Manila agree that he is a failure, but it ia by no means certain that a stronger man will do any ‘better. Admiral Dewey, President Schurman, Mr. Denby and Mr. Worcester of the Philippine Commission agree that the Fili- _ pinos are well capable of self-government. This is now “acknowledged by the officials at Washington. Otis alone @issents,. but his opinion will have little weight in the light et his many mistakes. R This amounts to a confession that a horrible blunder was “made when affairs were allowed to drift into a state of War. By the exercise of tact and good judgment the conflict : : precipitated last February might have been averted. ’ The recall of Otis will be only the first step out of the Beaty. and it should not be forgotten that the real set- 0 t must proceed from Washington, not from Manila.

Fach Monday for more thai a year it has been a ,leasant practice to print in these columns comparative showings of the St. Louis Sunday papers of the preceding day. The books have been thrown open to the public. The accounts as given might be “proved” by any reader. These statements showed the recurd of each paper compared with its own showing on the corresponding Sunday of the previous year. For the Sunday Post-Dispatch they have been one continuous record of growth —growth far in excess of that shown by its competitors. The record of last Sunday is unprecedented. The gain of the Sun- day Post-Dispatch in advertising over the corresponding Sun- day of a year ago was 48 columns or 60 per cent, while the Sunday Globe-Democrat’s gain was 8 per cent and that of the Sunday Republic 2 per cent. The most striking feature of this extraordinary showing is the gain in advertising of the St. Louis merchants. Of the total gain of 48 columns, 40 columns were of this class of advertising—148 per cent, while the Sunday Globe-Democrat showed a gain of 15 per cent and the Sunday Republic a gain of 1% per cent. To understand these figures apply them to your own busi- ness. No edition,” no extra effort, no distribution of free papers, unusual conditions, no false claims of “a big special no inducement out of the ordinary brought about this result. It represcnts growth from merit alone.

Pat. jumped at the flattering offer and was soon at the harbor of St. Louis.

On the way they stopped off at an engine house and Pat was introduced to the firemen. When leaving Mike told Pat that it was an ironclad rule among the street railroads to give the Fire Department the right of way, so that if he met an engine he should stop his car at once. “All right,”’ said Pat, and he bore the rule in mind when he took charge of a Cit- izens’ line car a few days later. There was a fire near Seventh street and Franklin avenue and Pat’s car was rapidly approaching when an engine turned the cor- ner. Pat turned the crank and the fire- rhters sped by.

The man scowled. “She thinks because she’s Dr. Judson’s daughter that she’s better’n common folks,’ he muttered. © Then turning to the child he said: ‘*‘Tell your sister that I can't pay money to a little girl like you; tain’t safe. But if she'll come here this evening I'll pay her ‘n full.” “Didn't you get the money, Carrie?’ said Emma Judson anxiously as the child en- tered. “No, Mr. Peck wouldn't let me have it, but he said if you'd come over he'd pay it to you. The pale cheek flushed deeply. “l will not go!’ was the first that rose in-her mind. Then she glanced at the fireless hearth and empty cupboard, her eyes resting last upon the pale face of her invalid mother, who sat reclining in an easy chair by the window. With compressed lips and gleaming eyes she arose from her seat. Mrs. Judson turned upon her daughter a troubled, inquiring look. “What can be the motive in not sending the money by Carrie?’ “Perhaps he was afraid she would lose it, or wanted to show his authority. It does not matter.’’ In spite of Emma’s confident tone and bearing in her mother’s presence her heart sank as she drew near the dingy store kept by her employer. Mr. Peck greeted her with a smile that made his coarse, red face look more repulsive than ever. “Sit down—sit down Miss Emma; I'll at- tend to ye in a few minutes.” It seemed mig | to be some time before Mr. Peck would be at leisure to attend to her, and leaning her head upon her hand she fell into a train of painful reflection. She contrasted her presenflife of toil and privat'on with the ease and plenty that had been hevs before the death of her kind father threw her upon the cold charities of the world. Her thought then reverted to him who was so seldom out of her mind, to whom she had given her heart and plighted her troth, but from whom she had not heard for many . weary mone. - She had written immediately af father’s death, telling him of “the Pet change in their clrcumstances, but no an- swer had come to it or tO any other of the loving missives she had couwaried. He must be dead; he would not, ev be false to her! wid not sister: thought sé. wr oo ae a a al - — He had gone West to seek his fortune— the fortune that was one day to be theirs —but only to find a grave! Absorbed in these reflections, Emma hard- ly noticed the lapse of time until Ms, Peck addressed her, when she perceived, to her alarm, that the store was quite deserted. ‘“‘Let me see, my dear; what is the amount of that little bill of yours?’ “One dollar and seventy-five,’’ replied Pmma, taking no notice of the rude famil- larity of this speech save by the heightened color and sparkling eyes. “Be good enough to give me the money, for it is growing late.’’ “You needn't worry about that,”” re- sponded the man with a laugh. “I ain't the one to let a girl go home alohne—not if she’s got such bright eyes as you, my dear!" Without deigning any wey to this Emma took the money from the counter and turned to the door. But not so swiftiy but what he was on the doorstep as soon as she. ‘Mr. Peck, I will not trouble you to go home with me,’ said Emma, turning upon her unmanly persecutor a look that wouid have been sufficient to a less brutish na- Lure, “Oh, it's no trouble, miss; quite the con- trary, I assure you,” Weakened by toil and fasting Emma could with difficulty refrain from bursting into this is unmanly, cruel! If you do ‘re me I will call for help!” “Oh, no you won't.”’ Terrified by the rude hand that was laid upon her shoulder, Emma was unable to repress a scream. Here a blow from a stout fist sent the wretch head first into a snowbank at the side of the road. , With a howl of rage and pain the dis- comfited man arose to his feet, but obtain- ing a glimpse of the tall, stalwart form of his assailant, picked up his hat, slinking around the nearest corner. Removing his hat, the stranger now ap- proached Emma, who had sank down faint and trembling upon the doorstep. “Good heavens! Emma, can it be possi- ble that this Is you?’’ “Oh, Charlie!’ she gasped, falling faint- ing into the arms that were cpened tg fe- ceive her. It seems by some mischance that Emma's letters did not reach her lover. Unable to bear the suspense occasioned by her silence he returned. Here he learned of Dr. Judson's death and that the whole family had removed to B——, but not to what part of it.. He came at once to B——, and after an unavailing search of several days was about to give up in despair when they met so unexpectedly and opportunely. Sorrow and privation are over for Emma Judson—now Emma Judson no longer—and those she loves. The mistress of a happy home, tha wife of an adoring .-husband, she has forgotten the sufferings of the past in the sweet and tranquil pleasures that are now hers!—At- tleburo Sun. : A Solid City. From the Washington Post. The Louisville Courier-Journal sayg the “merchants and manufacturers of Bt. Louis have built up a great commerce that has made the city relatively more prosperous than Chicago, and has given it & greater proportionate growth.’’ It is no disparagement of Chicago, the second city on this continent and the mar. vel of the age in the rapidity of its prog- ress, to assent to that assertion. Although neither St. Louls nor any other Northwest- ern city can reasonably expect to rival Chi- cago, there Is no question that St. Louis is “relatively more prosperous,” and !s, Just now, experiencing “a greater proportion- ate growth.” In other words, St. Louts has more prosperity per capita than the Western metropolis. The same remark would hold true of a number of Bastern cities In their relation to New York. As the Post stated some time ago, im discussing the cities of. the. West, St. Louis excels them all in the solidity of its show- ing of wealth; it owns itself, is dependent 0. its own resources of capital and enter- prise to a greater extent than the most fortunate of them. Lou's has achieved wonders. Paraphras- ing a verse from Holy Writ, we may say that its fame, in this respect,,has gone out through ail the earth, and its wares to the ends of the world.

" ca ee ie : is "y fo “ + - — Sarah Grand “The This is one of the questions which people are prone to consider by the light of their own personal experience. Ideas on the subject of the age at which giris should marry vary considerably. When wives and daughters were the goods and chattels and men had the principal say in the matter, little girls were cruelly forced to marry at the beginning instead of the completion of the change from childhood to womanhood, They were made wives, that is to say, while | they were still far from being perfectly de- veloped women physically, and were utterly immature mentally, with all their natural womanly instincts still in abeyance. Fortunately the iniquity and absurdity of this have been thoroughly exposed, and now if parents attempted to pitch forth their little daughters of from 12 to 16 into matri- mcny as they did with impunity not so very long ago, the whole world would cry shame upon them. The whole tendency of the modern educa- tion for girls is to prolong their girlhood The ghastly doctrine that this is necessar. ty a wicked world, no longer finds gener- al aceptance, It is a favorite axiom with us nowadays that every age has its pleas- ure, or should have, with a fair chance— childhood, pistnees, womanhood—and to get the full value out of each. Our intelligent giris begin to have ideas of their own on the subject of the ~ epeaetion of their lives, prompted, no doubt, by mothers of a new order. They do not care to be put off with half an education and hustled Into matri- mony while they still should be doing their school course. €y combine recreation with study, ang delight in everything, and ic is not until they have had the foundation of a good general education that they be- gin to be serious on the subject of matri- mony. Serious is qa the right word for their attitude. What they 7 oN in a busband is comrade, friend and lover—a su. perior in attainments and talents by all means—if possible. The girl knows quite enough to see the advantage of that, but one who must appreciate her, and all round for what she is worth, and help her to the full development of such. She decidedly objects to marry an ex- tinguisher, who would tell ther that her posers place is in the nursery and kitchen with an inflection on the words that tell her that the nursery and kitchen are more worthily regulated without mental advance. ment, and the care of them necessarily precludes any further degree of cultiva- tion.

Bee and Trixie are the common di- minutives. Beata and Beta are sometimes used. It Is too pretty a name to shorten and should be given in full. Beatrix is the French form. Dulce or Duleie is de- rived from the Latin and means sweet. Dulcinia and’ Dulcibella come from the Same root, but the simpler form is the prettier, although the latter means sweet Leauty or beautiful one. Dorothy means “gift of God.”’ j THE FIRST SHORT PLANNEL SKIRTS are made with waists, if no un- derwaist is worn.

DON'T FRIGHTEN CHILDREN—To frighten a refractory child, says Marion Grant in the American Queen, is one of the commonest methods of exhorting obe- dience and one employed by many parents and guardians. The child, especialy if it be delicately and nervously organiged, ts reduced to a state of terror by threats of confinement in dark rooms and by the pictures of hobgoblins, borymen, witches and the like. Its nerves are thus further weakened and its little life is passed in an atmeepnere of constant dread. The ef- fect of fright, even to the matured nerves,> is often lamentable, and to the child whe is too young to reason it is frequently worse, Darkness becomes a source of terror and the bedroom without a light and someone in constant attendance - comes a horror, the infantile mind conjur- ing all sorts of ugly dreams to prevent sleep and recuperation. Instead of threat. ening dire penalties as the result 6f diso- bedience, it is far better in the cape of an obstinate and refractory child t bo % y ’ ww , ’ ’ ae | a Pye ~ pasty % As f . bis, '89 68 oo . ew “ae ori v Girls Advice in al

AND AT THE 14TH STREET THEATER. James J. Butler, John R. Butler and C. W. Whitney, Jr., the Promoters of the New Organization. The new boxing club that is to hold forth at the Fourteenth Street Theater perfected ite organization on Monday. It will be known henceforth as the St, Louls Athletic Club and has been regular- ly incorporated under that name. The new club's officers are James J. Butler, proprietor of the. Standard Theater, president; John R. Butler, vice-president, and C. W. Whitney, Jr., secretary and man- ager. This corporation has closed a lease on the Fourteenth Street Theater and in it a com. plete gymnasium and club will be ope- rated. Bimonthly boxing exhibitions are to given and Monday night, Oct. 8, is n as the date of the opening bout, hich is to be between two first-claes men. The Butlers represent some very impor- tant interests in St. Louis and if abundant capital will make the new club a winner, why, then, it’s certain success is assured. be med The boxing season opened in earnest Mon- day night, when Important bouts were brought off in all parts of the West. In Denver, 8t. Louls’ own Bob Douglas met Mysterious Billy Smith and at the end of the third round Douglas received a blow on the egolar plcxus which sent him down and out. At Louisville, Joe Choynski and — Hall met and in the third’ round Hall was counted out. At St. Louls, ved headed Kid McFad- dea of Ban Francisco and Morris Rouch of Chicago boxed twenty rounds and at the conclusion Referee Bob Delaney had little t*ouble in selecting Rouch as the winner. At the Ortental Theater boxing entertain- ment, given by Parson Davies, a year ag~u. Douglas boxed a draw with Tommy Tracy. Parson Davies then suggested that Myste- rious Billy Smith would prove a good match for Dovgias and.ever since then there has been talk of a meeting between the two. At lasi a match was a:ranged and Douglas commenced training for it six weeks ago. He trained hara, tov, and when he left for Denver last week, his friends hoped to see him ecore a victory. Accor d- ing to seport, Douglas gave as good as was sent the first three rounds, but in the fourth Smith got in a solar plexus, which put Bob down and out. The defeat will prove a crusher to Douglas, for he was confident of winning and it may result in his permanent retireme.t from the ring. The defeat of Kid McFadden was as hard a vbiow to St. Louis followers of boxing as the defeat of Douglas. McFadden came here trom Denver a few weeks ago with letters to prove him a firet rate boxer. Mali Doyle, Frank Purcell and other local fo.lowers of the boxing game took hoid of the youngster and got him in first-class condition, They thought he would surely take Rouch’s measure, and were gr.cvous- ly disappoimed at his fallure to deiver the goods. The red-headed youth showed great pluck and endurance, but that was al.. He appeared to iack skill and In all the twenty rounds he failed to take advantage of a eingle opening: Mis defense Was also weak and Rouch would often stand off, take de- iiberate aim and then land without the oth- er fellow making any objection whatever. When the fight was over McFadden took exception to the very fair decision of the referee and gave the latter a tongue lash- ing. But big Delaney laughed good-natuied- ly at the wrath of the youngster and paid no other attention to him. ‘¢ Flanagan, the gamest and best of bantam puegliists, arrived in 8t. Menday, accompanied by his man:- Bob Delaney. Steve comes here tv Casner Léon. The litt.e fe.low is looking aplendidly, and is already In condi- tion for a long battle. Flanagan seconded Johnny Richie when the latter Was defeated by Terry McGov- ern. “In that fight.” said Flanagan, ‘Richie fought very poorly, and he looked to me as though he Was scared to death. He was undoubtedly overtrained. McGovern ig a rusher and fights so hard in the opening round that he surprises and generally licks the other fellow before the fight is fair.y begun. That ts how he got away with Richie and Palmer so quickiy.”’ Talking about Richie, St. Lovis’ bantam appears to have gone back since arriving in New York.

PENDING. Proposed Change in the Constitution of the Order and a Spirited Fight Over Secretary and Treasurer. There will be two very pretty contests— that is, one spirited election and one bitter fight—during the twenty-fourth annual con- vention of the United States Railway Mail Mutual Benefit Association, which — opened at 11 o’clock Tuesday morning at the Southern Hotel. The bitter fight will be over a question of changing the constitution and by-laws of the association; the spirited election will be for the office of secretary and treasurer. Under the existing rules the members of the organiaztion are graded A, B, C and D. Members in grade A are under 30 years of age; members in grade B are over 3 and under 40; in grade C from # to #, and In grade ID over 60. The members of each Frade are required to pay in proportion to Service their age, the youngest paying the least and the highest paying the most. It is pro- posed to so change the constittufon that members will pay according to their age at the time of payment, inetead of according to their age at the time of their joining che arsociation. This the younger members of the association regard as an attempt [0 force them to eventually pay as much as the most aged members are paying now, and to deprive them of the benefit of hav- ing joined the order when it and they were young. ‘They are prepared to fight it and while they are fighting the measure they will also make a little war on the men who advocate it. It is said to be the purpose of the opposition to the change to deprive every member of the other side of any of- fice of honor and trust he may hold always provided that they win their fight. Some members of the opposition claim that underlying the plan to change the con- stitution is a purpose to put the association or. the same footing as regular insurance companies, As it stands, railway mall clerks get a $2000 life insurance for much leas than they could from any old-line company. If the constitution is changed this is by no means certain. There will be no fight over the presi- dency. It is purely an honorary position and if J. W. Brown of Atlanta, the incum- bent. wanted it he could probably have it ain, yt is different with the office of secretary and treasurer. here is a salary of $1500 a year attached to it and there are_sev- eral members willing to take it. ii Henry of Quincy, the incumbent, is one of these. He hds a strong following and may be re-elected. At first he had several oppo- nents. but C. O. Wengler of St. Louis showed auch atrength that the fight has narrowed down to a contest between those two. The secretary and treasurer must Illinois man, because the Association incorporated in that State. The election of officers will probably not be held till Friday. There were about 300 tendance Tuesday when President Brown rapped for order. Rev. W. J. McKittrick opened the meeting with prayer. Next there was an address by Mayor Ziegen- hein, who welcomed the delegates in his customary humorous way. Addresses were then delivered by ex-Mayor ©. P. Wal- bridge, Postmaster Baumhoff and Superin- tendéent S. P. Taft. The response was elo- quently made by President W. Brown. The business of the convention consisted of the appointment of a Committee on Cre- dentials, after which adjournment was ta- ken until 1:30 o'clock. ~ “Snap Shot Sal.”’ TO PROSECUTE YOUNG KILLIAN.

Company Foreman Says the Strike Is Unreasonable and That the Places of the Strikers Will Be Promptly Filled. The lasters in Factory No. 8 of the Brown Shoe Company on Thirteenth street, between Cass avenue and Mullanphy street, are ona strike. There are only fifteen of them, but they claim they will be able to influence others to leave their benches ff the company does not accede to thetr demands. Their grievance, according to a statement of their committee, is that the company has been employing men in their depart- ment on a variable scale of wages, paying cigha peay ba and some another.” They el Bhey had evidence that thia pro- ceeding would éventually result In a sweep- ing reduction *of wages to a point where the fen would hardly be able to make a living. They say they struck, therefore, rather than be confronted by. such a con- dition. On the other hand, Superintendent Fogg of the factory declares that, so far as he knows, the men have no grievance that is reasonable. He says the same scale of wages still prevails in their work that was in operation before they went out and that the company ‘has no intention of maki a ‘cut. He mits he does not pay all his men the same price, but says all experi- enced men receive compensation on ‘the same scale. Only the beginners, he says, get variable prices. The walkout of the men has not caused the factory to suspend operations. All the machines are going and the company has announced that its work will not be inter- fered with materially. Lasters to take the places of the dissenters have been adver- tised for and Superintendent Fogg says he believes he will have all he wants before Wednesday morning. The trouble between the company and its lasters began about two weeks ago, but it did not become critical until Friday. J. E. Cook, one of the leaders in the strike, has given out the following statement of the circumstances leading up to it: “About two weeks ago, we discovered that the same prices were not being paid for all the work done in our room. We old men who had been on the bench a long time were receiving 3 cents for plain toe pull-over work and 3% cents for cap toe work. The new men taken into che shop frcm time to time were bosng paid 2 and 2% eents for the same work. ey were sll experienced men, too. When we avvciden- tally discovered that this system provailed. we immediately investigated and learned that the men had been hired on the state- ment that the wages they received was the soale in vogue in the office. “We wished to avoid trouble, if possible. 80 we made complaint to the formean that we did not think the new men were be- ing treated right. We were told we had been misinformed and we let the agitation ' drop, preferring to allow the case to more an te evyelop before proceeding definitely *“"We were satiefied all the time that the foreman’s intention was eventually to sup- plant us mae penced men with the new cheap men. We regarded this as proven last Friday when some new work, inuch more difficult than we had been doing, was ziv- en to one of the old men. He eaid he could not do it for the old price, whereupon he was told that that was all the cumpany had for him to do. This was cquivaient to a discharge. This alarmed us, and we took measures for self-protection. We drew up_a scale of wages for all kinds of work ana demanded that the company agree to allow it to operate on every person in the factory. The foreman declined to consid- er this scale and we quit. . “We have the sympathy of our fellow- workers, and think they will come out with us if our scale is not agreed to. in th’s scale we ask a smali increase in wages for cértain kinds of work. The increases are reasonable. Under the old scale it was impossible for a laster to make more than & week, and few made that. And yet the company wishes to cut us evea lower. It is unjust and we will not suomit. Every factory in town is paying more.” / “I was eurprised when the men quit,” waid Superintendent Fogg. ‘Ir ihe have apy grievance I don’t know of it. can't scuss the trouble, because | know of The men have always been treated t. no reduction of wages was con- t . All the mistreatment they claim in- Sinary. [| am payin the same money for work now that pald before oge goal continue to do it. I have nothing t the men who are out. If they can a we wp be than we are ying I t diame them for quitting. ut they Mistaken in their theory that I had againet their interests, Of course pay all my lasters the same price. many beginners, and they must be par with their any complaint system.

John Wolf, a resident of the Big Ten bricks in Granite City, LIL, attempted sui- cide Monday night by slashing his throat with a knife, inflicting a wound four inches across, which necessitated 15 stitches from a local physician. The cutting affair has been kept quiet, the relatives refusing to give any information in regard to the old man’s act. It appears that Wolf, who is \ years old. was despondent over the marriage of his daughter, Miss Jacobine, which occurred last Wednesday, to John Davis of this city. He opposed the unlon, as did the rest of the family. On the wedding day he had a quarre!] with this son-in-law, who resides in §S Louis, and took to drinking. Later the day he left the house and went a corn field a few rods east, where constructed a wigwam by watheringe the tops of cornstalks and twisting them to- gether, after which he cut and siled more stalks around the hut. He never left his new-made Monday’ evening. . The old man is in a precarid 1s condition and is not expected to live. JEWISH FESTIVAL OF HARVEST. Special Services Held in All the Syna- gogues of the City. Monday night marked the closing feast of the Jewish holiday season, which has extended through the entire month. In all the congregations it was com- memorated in some manner, the observance at Temple Israel] being in the nature of a service of song. In addition t it was the’en in into he home until its being the,last holiday of Succotn, e Feast of Tabernacles. As such, a harvest festival, the cantata of ‘‘Ruth the Gleaner,’’ was fittingly sung by the choir, and in a man- ner that reflected credit on themselves and Prof. A.C. Eimer, the organist and musical director. The regular choir, consisting of Miss Ma- ginnis, soprano; Miss Kellersman, mezzo- soprano; Newell Vinson, tenor, and John J. Rohan, bass, supported the entire work, each carrying two or more parts. The compositiion was by J. A. Butterfield of Boston. Dr. Harrigon, on Monday, celebrated the elghth -anniversary of hie pastorate at Temple Israel—a time, he said, that was full of joy and pleasant recollections. In his stirring and eloquent sermon, he thanked his people for the hearty and en- thusiastic support they had, at all times, accorded him, througth which he had been enabled to accomplish many things that would Rave otherwise been impossible.

It is said several others had their cases continued, but the trick was not discov- ered until court had adjourned. ‘The ider- tity of the man who represented hii:self aS the City Attorney is somewhat shruuded in mystery. d “Snap Shot Sal.”’ LIVE STOCK. _ National Stock Yards.

It Is Rumored That Between Two and Three Million Dollars Are to Be Received by St. Louis Holders. It is reported in financial circles in St. Louis, and the report comes from sources deemed abs@lutely reliable, that the first payments on Brown Bros.’ subscriptions will be made early in October, sometime be- fore the middle of the month. The pay- ments, it is asserted, will be from the sales of the $45,000,000 in 4 per cent gold bonds, which the plan of the United Rallways Co. provided for. The amount of money this will put in circulation x 3 7 city Is estimated at from $2,000,000 The Brown Bros.’ pian pare Mh ied this: All subscribers to the consolidation were is- sued certificates, calling for certain amounts in bonds of the United States Rallways Co. and other amounts in commvn and preferred stock. These securities were to be issued to Brown Bros., who were to act as brokers in the deals, and they were either to be distributed to the certificate ho.ders by them, after provision was made for the payments for the street railways acquired and the sum set aside for main- tenance, to the certificate holders, or they might be sold not below a price fixed and the proceeds turned over to the certificate holders, after Brown Bros. had taken out their percentage. The securities were _sub- scribed for through the St. Louis Trust Co., and hy $10,000,000 worth were placed in this c ity. These securities have not been issued yet, the plan giving Brown Brothers till April 1 next to carry out the scheme. The bonds will be ready for issue from the engrav- ers about the middle of next month, and it is the sale of these and the payment of the cash to the certificate holders that it is de- c.ared will be the next move in the Street Railway deal. Whitaker & Hodgman, the repreeentatives of Brown Brothers in this city, will neither affirm nor deny the report. They declare they have nothing to say on the subject, which is their usual policy in regard to ali reports concerning the Street Railway con- solidation. But a man close on the inside of the unification deals said Tuesday that while he was not able to state that this povecnees was in contemplation, it would a good bueiness proposition, and that it looked reasonable to him. HGHTING == TERMINAL, -_ —" WEBSTER GROVES CITIZENS BE- FORE THE COUNTY COURT. A delegation of the leading citizens of Webster Groves appeared before the judges of the County Court at Clayton Tuesday in behalf of the application of the Couny Belt Line and to remonstrate against tne granting of the application of the Terminal Company. Among the leaders of the delegation were: L. R. Blackmer, M. D. Thompson, Charles Connon, J. P. Dawson, John Wilsinson and J. F. Allen. Many of the business men of Webster Groves left their work to go to Ciayton on the mission. The gentiemen represented to the Court that the County Belt (Line Company was the first of importance to apply for the franchise; that it had offered the most lib- eral inducements; that it had promised to build another bridge across the river which would be the making of St. Louis and St Louls County; that the exorbitant charges of the Terminal Company were work.ng ruin to the business interests of St. Louis County and greatiy impairing those of the city; that these charges are responsible for the building of a string of thriving lLttie cities on the Illinois side that otnerwise would have been located on the Missouri side; that opposit.on to the Terminal is what is needed, and that by thus lowering the frgight charges a large number of fac- tories and business estabiishments now .o- cated on the Iliinois side would immediateiy come to Missouri. The judges of the court, after listening to the committee; went into secret session, which lasted all the morning. It was hinted during the adjournment at noon that the court had arrived at a ver- dict which would be made public In open court Monday. It is also stated by those who cla.m to be on the inside that tne County Belt Line was granted a franchise upon certai nconditions which it igs thought the promoter will accede to. It is said that the court, acti as committee, has decided favorably with em erence to two of the applications and that uwo belt line franchises will ‘be granted provided the companies backing them wil} agree to the conditions. One, It is said, is to be a sieam belt line and the other an electric line. The conditions, ag laid down by the.court are said to be very strict. It is claime that it will require of each of the favored applicants a large cash deposit, io be [for- feited if each and all of the agreements are not strictly adhered to. The promoters o a County Belt Line are: x-Mayor C. PP. Walbridage, John E. Wilkinson, ex- oF eaathoas of the Business Men's League; W. Fieming, Mayor of ‘Webster Groves; N. D. Thompson, Louis W. Post, W. L. Blackman an others. Several of the promotors were at Clay- ton Tuesday, but they denied they had any informat.on as to what action the County Court had taken fn the premises. All these men wore a contented look on their faces, however, and it is believed they have re- ceived hints that the court had favored them. The judges of the court carefully in- spected all the charts and eaps of the dif- ferent lines and reviewed all the siate- ments that have been made during the long contest.

MONDAY EVENING, OCTOBER 2. Prof. Innes Will Proceed as Soon as the Counting Is Done to Make Up the Post-Dispatch Programme. The requests to have favorite musical selections played on Post-Dispatch Re- quest Night at the Exposition have all been received and are being assorted to deter- mine the selections which have been re- quested by the largest number of readers of the Post-Dispatch. On account of the enormous number of the coupons sent in to this office and de- posited in the ballot box in the main cor- ridor at the Exposition, it is impossible to announce to-day which pieces of music have been the favorites in the popular voting contest, but it is pretty safe to promise that among the selections which will be on the programme Post- Dispatch Request Nigh wi.l be Verdi's ‘*Miserere”’’ and the ‘Possum Rag,” which appear to be lead- ing, and Innes’ “Love is King,”’ the “An- vil C ‘horus,’’ from Il Trovatore and “Sulll- van's Lost Chord.”’ A programme made up of these gems would be worth going miles to hear, even if there were no other selections, but there will be others and they will all be as great favorites as these. Monday night, Oct. 2, is Post-Dispatch Request Night at the Exposition. It is certain that no better programme has evé@r been rendered in the big Music Hall than wi'] be given on that occasion, either by Innes or any other of the great leaders who have ween tnere. Judging by the great interest in the Post-Dispatch coupons the audience will be the largest and by long odds the most appreciative of the season, For several days the coupons have been coming into the Post-Dispatch office through the mails by the hundreds and the big ballot box at the Exposition building has been lamost too small to hold all that were put into it. The volume of the re- quest shows a discriminating appreciation of good music which is most gratifying. Almost without exception the requests have been for compositions of the highest merit. Compositions which are merely tuneful have not reeived such a high vote.

It was impossible to receive the request coupons after Tuesday, because, on ac- count of the wide range of the composi- seus to be played, considerable time will be required for the making up of the pro- gramme.

ATHLETIC DAY AT THE EX. qa eee . The Irish Melodies Attracted Large Crowds Monday. It was called “Irish Day” at the Exposi- tion, was Monday, and there were a great many children of the old 60d In attendance, But St. Lou‘s is cosmopolitan and’ peop.e of many other nationalities and races rubbed shoulders with their Irish friends and saw the sights and @njoyed the lilting measures and stirring anthem played by Innes’ Band. The musical programme wae not as dis- tinctively Irish as it might well have been, but there were several numbers appropriate to he any and they were enthusiastically a Phe so en the aquarium, the art gallery, the Indian Village and the economic exhib- its attracted the customary large crowds. Things are stirring in the Indian v.llage, for to-night Standing Water, a popular brave, is to wed Biue Wing Woman, one of the fairest maidens of the tribe.
