The season is agai. upon us and chrysan- themum locks and padded knee pants are @gain in the field, It must be lots of fun to sit in a cold Grand stand and shiver for three hours watching a game, else people wouldn't do it. Everybody loves a contest of youth and Strength and activity and skill. That is why everybody will be interested in the fine display of football pictures and news, which will form a striking feature of the Magazine Section of the next Sunday Post- Dispatch. The man who made and put into operation .the only. double-jointed, copper-riveted, four-ply, non-reversible compulsory arbitra- tion law in existence is now visiting in the United States. In his country there has not been a strike or a lockout for five years. There have been labor troubles, yes, but there have been no violent demonstrations. All these matters @re settled peaceably by law, and millions of dollars have thereby been saved to the workingman. This statesman has told for the benefit of readers of the next Sunday Post-Dispatch what this law is and exactly how it works. Do you know that there is a big colony of Filipinos in the United States?! They live Bo quietly that very little has ever been said about these ‘“Manilamen,”’ as they are called. by their neighbors. But a Sunday Post-Dispatch correspondent visited them and learned about them many interesting facts, which will be imparted next Sunday. Among other things, they are so civilized that they have no policemen and no courts, This reminds me that the next Sunday Post-Dispatch will contain a remarkably interesting oollection of stories from the Philippines—stories brimful of description, none of it too long and not a line of it tedious. Sir Thomas Lipton ought to take his yacht to Chicago, the Windy City, if he Wants to pull off that race before Christ- mas. There doesn’t seem to be enough wind around New York to float a_ butterfly. Besides, the visitors have already spent $2,000,000 and haven’t had two bits’ worth of sport. But that will all be changed before long. An inventive priest has discovered and put into practical use, on a small scale, a secret of nautical architecture which in- sures a revolution in yachting. He will explain his plan in detail in the next Sunday Post-Dispatch. Do you remember President McKinley’s celebrated ‘‘who-shall-haul-it-down’’ speech in Atlanta? Do you remember how he swung around the circle a year ago, unit- ing the Blue and the Gray as he went? Do you know that he got his idea for that @peech in St. Louis? © Do you know—but there are many inter- esting features concerning this matter, in- volving many famous men, as will be ful- ly explained in the next Sunday Post-Dis- patch. Young woman, do you pine to be an ac- tress? Do you yearn for the footlights and bouquets and fond admirers? Do you dream of great triumphs and much wealth and lasting glory? “Don't do it!’’ This is the advice of a St. Louis actress. No, she is not a “‘has-been.’’ She is still young and popular and has won honors enough to satisfy almost any professional. Yet she says to the female stage aspirant: “Don't!” re Why? She has written, her reasons and you will read them in the next Sunday Post-Dispatch. This whole Mississippi! Valley, under- ground, is nothing but a vast bed of nat- ural wealth, just as it is a garden of nat- ural beauty on the surface. The Creator seems to have omitted noth- ing from the ‘list of valuable things with which he stocked the earth beneath us. All that men have to do to become wealthy is to dig. ‘ This fact will be set forth pictorially in a new and surprising manner by the next Sunday Post-Dispatch. What do you think of a man digging $50,000 worth of gold out of the ground without going deeper than five feet. In some places it. was so close to the surface that he could plough it out. Much of it was absolutely pure. All this happened a few days ago in the Black Hills. You will read about it in the next Sunday Post-Dispatch. Over in Indiana there is a Chinese poct, who is also a humorist and lecturer. He pants to break Into metrpolitan journalism and to start a column of songs similar to that of Frank L. Stanton in the Atlanta Constitution. This young Celestial, who dresses in American style and wears giasses, has done several remarkable things. He will tell about them in the next Sunday Post-Dispatch. A bunch of good stories from the Trans- yaal, timely and engaging, will be features of the Sunday Magazine. See the halftones!

CLAIMED BY. TWO at all JAMES M’GUIRE SAYS HIS BROTH- ER MARRIED ONE OF THEM. HE CAN'T FIND HIS BROTHER. Mrs. McGuire Declares She Knows Who She Married and It Was Not the Brother of James. The James McGuire case has been called in the City Court at Alton and continued upon the affidavit of the defendant that he is not ready for trial. McGuire lived on Main street in Alton and was apparently happy. with his wife and sister. Last spring a woman went to the police station and secured a warrant for his arrest, claiming he had two wives and that she was one of them. She told the police he had threatened ven- geance if either wife told what was going on, and she asked for police protection be- fore she went back to the house. McGuire says the woman who claims to be his second wife is not his wife at all, but the wife of his brother, John McGulre, who often frequents this part of the coun- try. He has gone to some remote part of the earth and his brother says he does not know where he is. Mrs. McGuire denies all this. She says she was married to James McGuire at Clayton, Mo., and that she knows who she married. McGuire's first wife was an Alton girl, —" Bryant, and he claims her as his wife. McGulre’s innocence or guilt rests upon whether he can prove that it was not him- self, but his brother, who married the woman who claims to be his second wife. REVENGE OF AN AUTOMOBILE While Being Worried by Young Men the Machine Ran Into a Restaurant and Smashed Dishes and Tables. Two young men amused themselves and worrled the crowd in the basement of the Exposition Wednesday night by running an automobile through the aisles during the in- termission between the evening concerts. They were showing off both the vehicle and themselves, and visitors to that part of the bullding were kept dodging most of the time. The visitors had an unique revenge, how- ever, when the automobile ‘*bucked on the two young men, and became unman- ageable. They were just in front of one of the entrances to the basement restaurant, Tine machine took charge of its own prog- ress, and after the manner of a hungry horse, bolted for the food. There was a scramble of guests, a crash of dishes, and a fiight of waiters. There was a smash of tables, and an upsetting of chairs, and—later, there was a bill to pay, and the auto can not be beaten for its naughtiness, as could a horse. ; wiation to the Admiral. West.

CHARLES SMITH, AT THE AGE OF 122, TAKES A WIFE. HE IS THE OLDEST LIVING MAN. There Is No Doubt as to the Wedding; for the Rest There Is Only the Doctor’s Word. Special to the Post-Dispatch. ATLANTIC CITY, N. J., Oct. 12.—Dr. Charles Smith, 122 years old, went a-woo- ing and got him a wife. He was born in 1777 and his bride is 45 years old. Unable to believe his ears when the springtly bridegroom repeated his age, again and again the Rev. Thomas J. Cross asked him how he had defied death so long. “By this fluid,’’ was the reply, and Dr. Smith produced a small bottle filled with something resembling wine. The Rev. Mr. Cross let out the secret when he filed at the bureau of statistics certificates of marriages performed by him during September. Smith, according to the certificate, is a practicing physician. The wedding took lace on September 8 in a cottage where Miss Sallie May, the bride, and Dr. Smith were boarding. The doctor has an office there. As the clergyman filled out a blank he asked Dr. Smith for his age, thinking he was about 65 or 70. ; “Hiow old do you think I am?’ the old man asked, with a twinkle in his eye. “Well, I’m sure your’re of age,” said the preacher. “Yes,’’ said Dr. Smith, “of age and 101 years more. Sir, am 122 years old.” And then he told of his elixir. The Rev. Mr. Cross describes the bride as a well- formed woman of matronly appearance, Dr, Smith was married once. before. BOY WITH MUSIC IN HIS FEET When Heldelberg was playing his piccolo solo at the Innes concert in Music Hall, Wednesday night, a small boy—about 10 years old, evidently—stood by the aisle and listened. It was easy to see by his face that he had music in hie soul, and that he had a hard time keeping it there, as it was trying with all its might to bubble over. He kept tapping with his feet and beating time with his head, and nodding in tune wth the notes of ‘“‘Comin’ Thro’ the Rye,’’ and all around him the audience looked and enjoyed. inally Heidelberg broke into variations on the old air, and they were almost rag- time in their complexity. The boy could stand it no longer. Out into the asie he went. and soon he was “shaking his feet to perfection. His father saw what was going on, He reached out and grasped his son's arm, Ine boy started as if awakened out of a sound sleep. Then he dropped into his seat with flaming cheeks. He had been so affected by the music that he had forgotten where he was. OP OOOO OOO Or Or oer ory oere | The Exchange will no an in- As soon as that point W. P. KENNETT, Exchange. ~ ST. PATRICKS It Is Said the East St. Louis- ans Have Won. | FR. JAMES SWEENEY THE MAN. HE WILL SUCCED FR. CLUSE AS PASTOR. Final Decree by Mgr. Martinnelli Thought to Be in Archbishop Jan- sen’s Hands for Promulga- tion on Sunday. It was stated positively In East St. Louis Thursday @that the St. Patrick’s Church troubles have been settled by the apnoini- ment of Father James Sweeney of Tipton, : Ill., as regular pastor of the parish, Mer. | Martinelli, it is said, having forwarded the | acceptance of Father Cluse’s resignation to | the Bishop Wednesday morning. As a forerunner of the sudden termina- tion of the long controversy Bishop Janssen of Belleville visited. Father Cluse at St. Mary's Hospital Wednesday afternoon. The Bishop is said to have been disap- pointed in the discovery that his Vicar- General was out of the city. It is understood that the Bishop left word at the hospital advising Father Cluse to £0 to Belleville on his return and hurried to his home at the seat of the diocese. Immediately on the arrival of the Bishop In Belleville late Wednesday evening the report of the appointment of Father Sweeney Was spread in Kast St. Louis. It seemingly orbginated in Belleville, but many of the East St. Louls parishioners were confident that. the appointment had been made and all were seemingly in the best of spirits at thé’ virtual termination of the ‘‘war.’’ ' Vicar-General Cluse was asked to con- firm the report Thursday morning before he started to the Bishop's residence in Belleville. The prelate would only gay: ‘There has been no announcement.” The tone of the Vicar-General spoke more than the words, A call at the home of Father John Har- kins, “the new administrator and tempor | rary pastor of St. Patrick's, as well as pre- late at St. Mary’s, was met with a response from the housekeeper that Father Harkins was indisposed and net able to receive vis- itors at that hour. It has been the impression all along among the fighting parishioners that in the event of the acceptance of Father Cluse’s resination Father Sweeney would be _ in- stalled as pastor, with an Irish-American curate, It fs said the curacy has been ten- dered Father Downey, but that lacks con- firmation, The parish, it is sald, wil] be in excellent ro for the reception of the new pas- or. About 360 signatures of parishioners have been attached to the Bishop’s ‘‘document,’’ reciting the conditions under which the ban of excommunication will be removed, which include an acknowledgment that the signers were wrong in their attitude toward church authority, an expression of sorrow for their actions in opposing the Bishop and an affirmation that they will remain loyal to their vows in such emergencies in future. , Many of the communcants have refused to sign the Bishop’s paper, some insisting that they were in no way identified with the opposition to the appointment of Fa- ther Cluse, even though thev might have been secretly in sympathy with the move- ment tO oust the Vicar-General from the pastorship. Others insist that while they may have been outwardly in full sympathy with the rebellion and gave of their means to sustain their views, it would be hy- pocricy to acknowledge that they were wrong in all their actions, and that it would be nonsensical to imply any sorrow therefor. A few say they will not eign any such document, for the, reason that they have surely gained the point for which they contended—that is, the displacement of a German priest for an Irish-American pastor—and that if ay apologies are nec- essary they are certainly due from the Bishop of the diocese and not from the parishioners. There is no excitement around the church premises as a result of the report of the action of the metropolitan and the decision of the Bishop to send a priest into the field in full accord with the nationality and customs of a large majority of the regular communicants. The parish school is in good working order and the various minor and social so- cieties connected with the church are seem- ingly in as good ehape as when in May last Father Downey gave way to Father Cluse. Father Sweeney is expected to take charge of his new parish next Sunday morn- ing. The announcement of his selection will probably not be verified by the Bishop until to-morrow. The exact contents of Mer. Martinelli’s decree in the case are not known in the Belleville diocese by any other person than the Bishop, though it is understood that the metropolitan ativised the acceptance of the Vicar General's resignation on the im- mediate ground that Father Cluse had earnestly endeavored to perform his duty and had expressed a desire to be relieved from the pastonrship of St. Patrick's. Nor is it known what further disposition will be made of the Vicar General. he having formally resigned as prelate of the German- town church to go to the Bast St. Louis eld. THE WEATHER INDICATIONS.

Orange Free State troops have crossed the Orange River into Cape Colony and have occupied Philipstown. Their ob- ject is to cut the railway at De Aar Jun-- tion, which is considered an important strategic point. Another column has invaded Natal at Laing’s Nek, which they now occupy in force and have established a camp at In- gogo Heights. A third column has marched through Reenan’s Pass. ‘A fourth force of Boers is threatening | Mafeking on the west—the Rhodesia bor- der. A dispatch from Mafeking, under to- day’s date, says that Col. Baden; Powell has just sent a strong British for¢e from Mafeking toward the border, with field gun and ambulances, presumably| with a view of occupying advantageous defensive high ground. The authorities of Mafeking age hour'y expecting an attack, in which event the wires between Mafeking and Kimberley will be cut, and information entirely shut off. The Beuchanaland police, a_ well- equipped fighting force of native war- riors, have been ordered to concentrate within the town limits. No one is al- lowed to leave by either road or train without special permission, which is not granted to any able-bodied man. Nearly all the women and children have left. Confidence in their ability to repylse the Boers is incteasing among the British. Official confirmation of the announce- ment that the Orange Free State burgh- ers have entered Natal by way of Van Reenan’s Pass is at hand. It leaves no further room for doubt that acts of war have already been committed and that the campaign has begun. : News ‘of an invasion on the northern border is also generally accepted qs relia- ble. It seems improbable, therefore, that a clash between the forces of Briton and Boer can long be delayed, if, infeed, it has not occurred already. This morning’s dispatches furnish am- ple details of the situation on the frontier and enable a clearer exposition of the military status. It now seems that the Boers intend to act in two columns, those from the Transvaal working from the north and those from the Orange Free State working from the west, with the object of keeping the British farces at Ladysmith and Dundee occupied while parties of Boers slip past to destroy the bridges along the railway forming tthe line of communication between the British at Durban, Natal, the advanced base of Pie- termaritzburg, and the front. It is regarded as possible that the Boers will attempt to occupy Estcourt, where there are only a hundred men of the naval brigade, and the news that the Boers are raiding Zululand in the neighborhood of Eshowe is taken as a confirmation of this possibility. An easy road connects Eshowe and Estcourt through Greytown and Pam- poennek, and from Greytown it is also an easy reach to Howick, to the south. If the bridges along the Umgeni River were destroyed this would increase the diffi- culty of re-enforcing the British. However, it is still suspected that the entire Boer concentration on the frontiers of Natal may be merely an elaborate feint to draw off attention from Mafeking, which many experts régard as the rea! object of the Boers.

WILL NOT OFFER MEDIATION President McKinley Issues an Official Announcement Through the State Department. , WASHINGTON, Oct. 12.—The following Statement was issued by the State Depari- ment to-day: “The President has received a large num- ber of petitions signed by many citizens of distinction, requesting him to tender the mediation of the United States to settle the differences existing between the Gov- ernment of Great Britain and that of the Transvaal. He has received other petitions on the same subject, some of them desiring him to make common cause with Great Britain to redress the wrongs alleged to have been suffered by the Uitlanders and especially by American citizens in the Transvaal and others wishing him to as- sist the Boers against alleged aggression. It is understood that the President does not think it expedient to take action in any of these directions. As to taking sides with either party to the dispute, it is not to be thought of. As to mediation the President has received no intimation from either of the countries that the mediation of the United States would be accepted, and in the absence of such intimation from both parties, there is nothing in the rules of in- ternational usage to justify an offer of me-. diation in the present circumstances. It is known that the President sincerely hopes fad desires that hostilities may be avoided, but is unfortunately they should come to pass, the efforts of this Government sould be directed, as they are at present, to see- ing that neither our national interests nur those of our citizens shall suffer unneces- Bary injury.” RUMORS OF BOER MOVEMENTS Direct Sources of Information From the Transvaal Have Been Cut Off. LONDON, Oct. 12.—All kinds of rumors are telegraphed from South Africa regard- ing the Boer movements. Direct sources of information from the Transvaal and Orange Free State are, of course, cut off. London must rely on the news that can be obtained on this side of the border. According to a dispatch from Cape Town it is asserted there that the Boers have arranged with Chief Linch-We, a prominent chief on the northwestern border, to take up arme against Great Britain. It is reported that the Boers have mined three plers of the bridge at Komat! Poort on the Komati River. A dispatch from Durban says the arrange- ments for forming an outlander corps have been completed. IN OUR CONSULS’ CARE Americans in the Transvaal Will Look After the Interests of All Britons. WASHINGTON, Oct. 12.—It ts practically settled that the United States will look after the interests of Great Britain fn the Transvaal in the event of war. Although Great Britain up to a late hour to-day had made no formal request for such action on the part of the United States. it is be- lieved there is a perfect understanding to that effect between the representatives of the two governments. Mr. amor. the Hrit- ish Charge d'Affaires, had another confer- ence with Acting Secretary Hill at the State Department to-day at which it is believed an understanding was reached that the United States would look after the British interests in the Transvaal in case the with- drawal of the British representatives was made necessary by a declaration of war. The United States representatives in the Transvaal and also in the BrinNeh coleny of Natal and Cape Colony, as well as the consuls in the Free State, will be very busy men in the event of an outbreak of hos- filitiesa, for in addition to the EBrttish ip- teresia which will be confided to their care. thelr first attention must be directed to those of Amerkan citizens hese are no means inconsiderable extent and bn that there are no less wg é a te i” a Ke a eT a ll Ral ad Ode eer ee lof standing, garcing the correspondence wets ore et dent Steyn of the Orange Free os Sir Alfred ny and Bri T by In value.

The Kansan Thinks a “Stiff-Necked”’ Colonial Scheme Is the One for | America to Adopt. GAN FRANCISCO, Oct. 12.—"TI see no reason why the Americans should not be sole masters of the Philippines by March mext year.”’ This is the opinion of Brigadier-General Funston, who arrived at the home of his wite in Bast Oakland last night. “The situation in the islands,” he gaid, “has reached a stage where it is very easy to, see how to cope with it. There must be no temporizing, no wasted sympathy, no foolish sentiment. It must be a case of fight| The Filipinos are now in such a frume of mind that they will not yleld un- tJ] they are thoroughly thrashed and con- vinced that it is useless to oppose America. “I do not say this unadvisedly. I have given the matter many months of deep study and my knowledge of Spanish ena- bied me to converse freeiy with officers and. prisoners on the rebel side. “We arrived at Manila last December, Which was two months before hostilities began. During those two months the offi- cers of the Filipinos frequently came with- in our lines and I discussed with them ev- ery phase of the situation. They were very high-minded and gave me the opinion that they were well able to look after them- selves and that it was all very well for the Americaris to deliver them from the persecutions of Spafn, but that, having erformed that service we should be sat- fled and let them alone “The best among them are ignorant. Oc- casionally I found a smattering of educa- tion. But they are absolutely an ignorant race and quite incapable of self-govern- ment. “It is true that they possess much shrewdness and are cunning, but in relaity the chief trait in their character is treach- ery. It is this which has enab'ed them t» make as good a showing as they have made, but this is.no argument nar can it be made so. that they are capable of gov- erning themselves. ‘Suppose that they were left alone, The islands would be a scene of insurrection without any possibility of restoring peace. Only a gh: power can take hold of those islands, subdue the various factions and place them on a solid footing."’ “IT am convinced that the best way to govern the islands is to give them a firm, etiff-necked colonial government, molded on the same lines as the government of col- onies of Great Britain. There should be a | sag general who should have abso- ute power over the civil igh de ge and Tnite also the command of the States be considered judicious to organize among @ of + aes aS (ORE “— ~ ' ~ * ’ hss tae and they will be quite willing to carry arms under American officers. “With the 35,000 men now down there and the additional 25,000 that will be on ‘the ground when the November campaign opens there will be ample soldiery to walk through the islands. Sixty thousand troops will teach these Filipinos the lesson they deserve. But it must not be a campaign of temporizing. It must be aggressive and persistent from the start. There must be no let up and no opportunity must be given the rebels, once routed, to recover. “The Filipinos are no match for Ameri- cans on the battlefleld. In one instance, at Caloocan, where the Kansas oe engaged we lost two men while I personally counted 112 dead Filipinos. Thig is, of course, not a fair comparison, but the Americans are certainly as much superior under arms to Filipinos as six to one. “The seat of all the trouble at this time is the Fillpino Junta at Hong Kong. This pernicious little body is keeping the war alive. It is in communication with the in- oo and it supplies Aguinaldo’s army with the hope from which it lives. It sends out reports of fearful disaster to our troops that never occur. It imagines all manner of friendly feeling the world over toward the Filipinos. It assures them of all kinds of outside support without foundation, and in this manner keeps their spirits alive. “The Filipinos are busiest just now cir- culating reports that the trend of public opinion in this country is against the American procedures in the islands. They are informed by this Junta that a majority of all the States have pronounced against the policy of the Administration, and that they have only to wait until the next gen- eral election when the United States will grant them their independence. “Aguinaldo himself is shrewd but not clever. He circulates and corroborates all that the Junta sends out, and adds to it all that his cunning imagination can devise. With him the campaign is a great con- fidence game. If his people could be in- duced to accept the situation they would desert him to-morrow. “So long as those fellows think they have a ghost of a show of holding up their end they will maintain the rebellion, and if the American army fights them at every hand I belleve they will turn as a whole and come flocking into our camp, and will have no further use for that prince of confidence operators, Aguinaldo.”’ SCHWAN ORDERED TO RETREAT. WASHINGTON, Oct. 12.+-Gen. Schwan, after taking possession of San Francisco de Malabon, with sacrifice of American life, has been ordered to vacate the city and re- turn with his column toward Manila, which order he is now obeying. Gen. Otis’ dis- patches follow: “Schwan was successful yesterday in driving the insurgents south, with loss, from San Francisco de Malabon. He re- ports their force disintegrated and retreat- ing on divergent roads, which are impas- sable for artillery or wagons. “There is no intention of occupying this country permanently or temporarily; trans- portation will return by way of Rosario and column will move in the direction of Das Marinas, probably retiring on Imus, The country is of no strategic importance.”’ Gen. Otis disapproves of officers’ families joining them at Manila. He cabled the de- partment as follows: “Population Manila is much congested. Provision for icers’ wives can not be made. Thoee already arrived, together with the families of enlisted men, have caused much perplex‘ty. Would not per- mit my own family to come under existing circumstances; nearly all officers and men here are absent from ‘Manila on duty; families should await more peaceful condi- tions.’’ An additional dispatch from Gen. Otis this morning says: ‘“Sohwan's column is moving on Sapang and Das Marinas to-day, where opposition is expected. His artillery and wagon trans- portation is returning to Bacoor by way of Rosario. A column of 30 men is march- ing from Imus to Support Schwan if nec- essary. Young, in the north, has oécupied Arayat and supplics are being moved up the Rjo Grande by Cascoes to that point.

HIS WAY TO BRING PEACE. — GUARANTEE TAGALS FREEDOM WHEN THEY ARE READY. The Moment a Stable Native Govern- ment Is Established America’s Duty, He Says, Is to With- draw Troops. DES MOINES, Io., Oct. 12.—Col; William J. Bryan declares in an interview that troops should not now be withdrawn from the Philippine Islands. He said: “I do not favor the withdrawal of our troops. What I do believe, and have re- peatedly announced, is that we should at once declare our position in unequivocal terms, so positive that the Filipinos cannot doubt ft, to grant them full and complete independence the moment they have es- tablished a stable government. I believe if we should make such an announcement right now the war would cease in a very short time and our troops could withdraw without laying down their arms in the face of an enemy. ‘Furthermore, I believe if we had come out with such an announcement in the beginning the war never would have oc- curred. I am not unaware that a few half-hearted efforts have. been made in that direction from time to time, but they were made in such a way as to raise strong question of their sincerity.” Regardin next year’s campaign Mr. Bryan said: ‘We are Steger to make things just as lively in the campaign next year as possible, and I think we will suc- ceed better than ifn 1896. Former issues have changed somewhat and new ones have come in which strengthen our position and will add many votes to our column, I do not deem it advisable or ssible to atate so far ahead what issue will be chief in importance. Conditions and circum- stances may change between now and then, so as to make certain issues of greater relative importance than now. Our issues of 1896 are just as important now as then; others have arisen since then and still more may command attention.” NEW YORK |S NOW BRYAN’S. Croker Defeated Hill and Controls the State Committee. NEW YORK, Oct. 12.—Richard Croker its the new Democratic State leader and will swing New York to Bryan next year. In the State Committee meeting last night he signally defeated David B. Hill in all con- tests. Later tn the evening Croker sprung the following resolution on the State Commit- tee: ‘Recognizing that William J. Bryan is the natural and approved leader of the Democratic perty in the nation, the Demo- cratic State Committee of New York hereby e ivaaeute him ef Gtr tayelty aad loves ° mo r loya ‘ While was speaking in indoree- Croker eA j twice—yes, Cereal Co., Ltd., make it at Battle Creek, ment of this resolution Hill crossed the room, and, shaking his finger under the Tammany chieftain’s nose, said, with trem- bling voice: ‘‘Now, Mr. Croker, I want to tell you one thing. You can change your mind once about Bryan; you can change your mind three times; but you have changed it twice in six months, and I want] to say to you that If you change it again you will be charged with insincerity—you will be insincere. Remember that, Mr. Croker.,’’ Mr. Croker laughed, stood up, and, ]ook- ing Hill straight in the eye, retorted: “Well, you are something of a lightning change artist yourself.” This provoked uproarious laughter among many of the members, but Hill's face was as impassive as that of an image. For an instant he hesitated, and then roared: ‘*‘Remember, this is practically an indorse- ment of Bryan for ‘he presidential nomina- tion. Remember tat!’ “I'll remember that,” replied Croker with a smile. When it came to a vote the Bryan reso- lution was adopted by a vote of Hto l4. It means that the New York delegation in the next Democratic National Convention will be for Bryan, and that Croker will be in control. Low Rates to Portland, Tacoma and Seattle.

Hurt Him Werse Than the Devil Did. “T used the old-fashioned coffee from my babyhood, and like many _ others, thought I could not live without it. Was in the army four years during the Rebel- lion and came out very much broken in health. I was compelled to quit the ac- tive work of the ministry for more than a year at a time, suffering terribly from stomach and intestinal troubles and tor- pid liver, with the consequent nervous headache and prostration, lumbago and rheumatism. “Four years ago, being confined to bed with these troubles and ulceration of the liver, my physician positively forbade the use of coffee and brought me some Pos- tum Cereal Food Coffee. Since that time myself and family have used no other cof- fee. All my intestinal trouble has been greatly relieved and I no longer suffer from rheumatism and very little from tor- pid liver or biliousness. “I am fully convinced that coffee is very largely responsible for the greater part of all stomach, intestinal and liver troubles from which people suffer. I am now 53 years old, and my health has been so much improved that I do as much work as I ever did and with about as much comfort. I can conscientiously attribute it chiefly to the use of Postum Cereal Food Coffee. There are several friends who have Had valuable experience with the leaving off of coffee and the use of Postum Food Coffee. It gives me pleas- ure to add my testimony to help humanity to understand that the very general cause of sickness is, I consider, largely attrib- utable to mistakes in the use of food and drink.” Rev.

PRESIDENT M'KINLEY'S | - OWOSSO, Mich., Oct. 12.+A paper written by Perry 8S. Heath, First Assistant Post- master General, was read before the Mich- igan Republican Newspaper Association in session here. After a complimentary preface Mr, Heath takes up the Philippine question. He says: “We are fighting for peace in the Phil- ippines. We are pledged to the world to secure it, and if the United States is to n.aintain her position among civilized na- tions, we must in good faith perform these duties, which stand higher than the de- termination of what men shall hold the civil offices in the Philippine Islande. “In the cloud of misrepresentation and calumny which our opponents have raised on this Philippine question they ignore the facts of history. They talk about the Slaughter of innocent Fillpinos who are begging for mercy and peace. There is no Slaughter of innocent Filpinos. Those whom our troops are encountering are armed rebels, seeki to destroy the au- tnority of the United States in the terri- tory which, by the arbitrament of war and by the terms of the treaty of Paris, passed under our control. There hag never been a moment since Dewey steamed into Manila Bay and annthilated the Spanish fleet that Aguinaldo and his followers could not have had peace, protection and such share in the Government ae they de- served. But this gid not satisfy them. “President McKinley's instructions were that Aguinaldo* should be given a commis- sion in our army, and that he and those associated with him should be treated as our citizens. Yet this did not satisfy his cupidity. ‘Possibly he could not control his men, who demanded that the city should be given up to plunder and our hel less pris- oners should fall by the sword. When our soldiers restrained them, they rebelled and turned upon us the guns and ammunitions with which we had supplied them. From first to last President McKinley has con- sulted with Admiral Dewey as to the situa- tion in the Philippines, and tn almost every case has been guided by his advice. He has appointed two commissions and ex- hausted every method of honorable adjust- ment. He stands to-day, as he hag stood from the beginning, for ace first and the settlement of the question of government afterwards.”’ | FILIPINOS NOT IGNORANT.

SUBURBAN MAY BE IN IT. t ‘ Rumor That the Proposed Colorado Line May Make Connection With the Suburban. The St. Loufs County Court met in cham- bers Thursday to consider the terms of the franchise granted conditionally to the St. Louis. Kansas City & Colorado Railroad several weeks ago. There was a difference of opinion as to the demands that should be made, and the court resolved itself into a committee to go over the proposed route to make a per- eonal inspection and to have the matter more thoroughly explained. The judges donned their hats and immediately started out on their mission, accompanied by Coun- ty Attorney Heidorn and officials of the Colorado. One of the terms practically agreed upon by the court is that the streets in Clayton traversed by’ the road shall be macada- mized the entire width of the street, with curb and gutter on each side. It was aiso demanded that the applicants furnish un- mistakable assurance thay the road is to be operated exclusively by electricity. It is specified in the application that only electricity will be used, but according to the State law, when the company becomes chartered by the State, it has the right to use either electricity or steam, regardless of the terms of the county franchise There Was some objection to the fran- chise on _the grounds that after the road shall have been built every highway by which the Courthouse at Clayton may De approached will be occupied by an electric ne. County Attorney Heidorn urged that it be specified that but one set of double tracks be allowed to be built on the North and South road or any of the principal strets of Clayton. He desired, if a fran- chise were granted to the Colorado to construct a dowble track line, that a pro- viso be made that any other line obtaining a franchise over the same or a part of the same route be allowed to use the Colo- rado's lines n the proper compensation. W. M. Mitchell, general manager of the Colorado, and Jvdge R. H. Stevens, the road's general attorney, seemed willing to agree to any just terms the court might impose, but were anxious to avoid delay, as it is the desire to have the road con- structed by spring. The St. wis, Kansas City & Colorado Raliroad’s application is for a franchise to construct a double track electric line from the road's right of way in St. Louts County to the St. Louls County Courthecuse. The new line will run along the North and South road or Meramec avenue, as it is known in Clayton. There is a rumor in connection with the application that the éntire eastern end of the Colorado line from Unton avenue to Creve Coeur Lake is to be converted into an electric line, connecting with the Subur- ban at Union avenue in such a menner as to give a new and direct line from Clay- ton and Creve Cocur Lake to the business center of Bt. uls.

Baber lives At BOA Highteenth street. On October 8, i se alleged, he entered the saloon of Joh ouse at 2600 South Jetferson avenue, while intoxicated, created a dis- turbance and broke up a billiard table. The case was continued once. Thursday morning, when it was called, there were none of the witnesses present and Baber said that House agreed to noi prosecute if he paid $10 for camages sustained. He said he had alfeady paid $5. City Attorney Taylor called Judge Kin- sey’s attention to the case and it was ugain continued. The judge announced that his court could not be used as a Collection agency.

They express to the uttermost the nerve racked condition of the body, which makes life a daily martrydom. f this condition ocd had come suddenly it would have been unbearable. But the transition was grad- ual. A little more Vere strain each day on the nerves. A little more drain each day of the vitality. Any woman would be glad to be rid of such a condition. Every woman tries to be rid of it. Thousands of such women have been cured by Dr. Pierce’s treatment with his ‘‘ Favorite Prescription’? when local doctors had entirely failed to eal cure.

Accept no substitute. Mrs. Rena Hensel, of Massillon, Stark Co., Ohio, writes: “I had been troubled with chronic constipation and female weakness and doctored with different physicians, none of whom seemed tohelp me. I saw one of your advertisement and I thought I would try your medicines. I di so and with good results. Took one bottle of Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription, and two of his ‘Golden Medical Discovery,’ and I can say Iam cured of my troubles, thanks to Dr. Pierce and his medicines.

BUTCHER WAS Mr. Ehrengott Didn’t Like the Explanation Mr. Hogan Gave. Charles Martin C. Hogan, a contractor residing at 2827 Randolph street, appeared at the City Dispensary Thursday forenoon in @& badly damaged condition. His eyes were blacked and his face and head were a mass of bruises. He said George Ehrengott, who runs a butcher shop on Boyle avenue, between Pine street and Laclede avenue, did it, and that as soon as he could get to the warrant office he was going to make Ehrengott feel the power of an outraged law. While Dr. Vogel was patching? up Mr. Hogan’s wounds the patient told his story. He said he had a contract to repair a stove for Ehrengott and had done his best to earry it out. Unfortunately the Ehrengott stove was of peculiar construction, and it Was necessary to send to New York for a part that was needed in repairing it. Hogan #ays he met Ehrengott on the streets Thursday morning and told him why ‘there had been delay in fixing the atove. Ehrengott didn’t like the explana- tion. He said he didn’t believe it. Ho- gan told him that if he was in such a hurry to get the stove fixed he might pay his—Hogan’s—expenses to New York, and he—Hogan—woud get the necessary ma- terials and bring them back and do the work. Otherwisc he didn’t see anything for Ehrengott to do but wait for the ma- terial to come by express. Ehrengott appears to have regarded this explanation as frivolous, if not insulting. He was seated in his wagon, but it wasn't far to the ground and it wasn't long be- fore the muscular butcher Was on the side- walk demonstrating to Hogan that the lat- GOT THE IMPATIENT. Stove Wasn’t Repaired on Time and Cancer, Mrs. S. M. Idol, Winston, N. O., writes: ‘“‘Cancer is hereditary in our family, my father, sister, and aunt having died from this dreadful disease. I was thoroughly alarmed, therefore, when a malignant Can- cer appeared on my side, and at once sought the treatment of the best physicians. They were ynable to do any good, however, as the Cancer continued to grow worse and spread. I then tried 5.58. 58., which forced the disease out, and cured me permanently.” S.S.S' rie Blood (Swift’s Specific) is the only for Cancer; it cares the most malignant cases. Our treatise on sent free by the Seite Specific Oo., Atianta, Ga. SS no wise satisfactory. He knocked Hogan down a couple of times and when Hogan wouldn't stay down he kicked him in the face to convince him that ft was the proper thing for a man to do if he couldn't fix a stove on time and without suggesting a trip to New York as a possibility in connection with it. Hogan was cruelly hurt and said he would peeseeese Ehrengott if it cost him all he had. He was sent to the warrant Office to make complaint. HE JUSTIFIED MRS. GRIFFIN Judge Clark Acquits the Woman Who Thrashed Another Woman for Com- ing to Horsewhip Her Sister. Mrs. Nellie Griffin of 284 Franklin ave- nue was tried and discharged in Judge Clark’s court Thursday morning on a charge of assault and battery on Mrs, Jen- nie Stonewell of Belleville, D1. The testimony showed that Mrs. Stone. well came over to chastise a sister of the defendant. She brought a horsewhip with he r. Mra. Griffin took the plaintiff's whip from her and used It with telling effect. Judge Clark said she was perfectly justi- fled in doing as she did. HAS SURRENDERED HIMSELF.

JUDGE HANSMANN, DEFENDANT. HE IS BOTH JUSTICE AND POST- MASTER OF THE TOWN. Considerable Agitation in the Suburbs and the St. Louis Federal Author- ities Are Investigating the Case. Most of the conversation at Maplewood these days is about the suit for slander filed by ‘Miss Tennie Whiteside against Postmaster Eugene Hansmann. Miss Whiteside belongs to an old and well-known St. Louls County family and Is @ social favorite. She and her sister, Mrs. Ollie Wilcox, and their mother and brother live at Maplewood, where they own several houses. Of course, everybody in the Ittle suburb knows them. Equally, of course, everybody in the sub- urb knows Postmaster Hansmann. Mr. Hansmann appears to have a faculty for geiting into the public eye wherever he may reside. It will be remembered that he did this very effectually when he was con- nected with the St. Louis Home of Rest. And as he is a Justice of the Peace, no- tary public and dealer in cigars, candy and other articles at Maplewood, in addition to being postmaster, it is natural that he should be a conspicuous figure in the com- gunity. How long he will continue to be post- master is problematicai. He was told flatly by Postoftice Inspector J. D. Suili- van Wednesday that unless he produced a witness whose name he said he did not) know, the department would probably take | action on a complaint made against him by Mrs. Ollie Wilcox. ‘Mrs. Wilcox’s complaint and the conse- quent investigation of Postmaster Hans- tmann grew out of the same incident that caused Miss Whiteside to sue him for siander. Mrs. drawn Wileox’s complaint, which was up by Attorney James G. Pratt, eounsel for her and her sister, sets forth that Thursday, October 5, Mrs. Wlicox went to the postoffice and asked for her mall; that ansmann accosted her in a rough and insult ing manner, flaunted a pos- tal card in her face and said that it wae a threatening and obscene communication addressed to him and was written by Ten- nie Whiteside; that he said he had proof that Tennie Whiteside mailed the postal ecard and that he had informed the Fed- eral authorities and would sée that Tennie Whiteside was put in jail, where she be- longe; that Hansmann repeated his charges an threats several times, his language and manner to Mrs. Wilcox being tantamount to an assault on her as well aS a slander of Tennie Whitesidé who, Mrs. Wilcox asserts, could not have mailed the ostal ecard, as Hansmann charged; that tevens of Maplewood was present and eard and saw Hansmann thus assault and insult Mrs. Wilcox. Although Hansmann still claims to be- lieve that Miss Whiteside wrote the postal card, he did not make any complaint to the Federal authorities. They heard nothing of the offensive post- el i until Mr. Wilcox’s complaint was e Inspector Bullivan was detailed to in- vestigate. Hanamann denied having spoken roughly or rudely to'Mrs. Wilcox or mak- ing any threats against Miss Whiteside. He refused at first to produce the postal card, but Inspector Sullivan insisted on having it and got it. Hansmann admitted he had charged that Mise Whiteside wrote the postal card and gaid his charge was based on information iven him by a‘you man who saw Miss Ag gga mail the postal card in St. Louls, told him af it before it oes. ood. ” said he didn’t know the nam told Pg this, pee tS that he for a hardw com and the sult was dismissed. of these sald that complaints about PF i Saniiataien. nasa In| 2 tewa specter Sullivan said to him: “I have seen tevens und he corroborates Mrs. Wilcox’s Statement. It is very important to you that you produce the man you say told you you would receive the postal ¢ard.”’ Hansmann asked for time to find wit- nessés and no report on the case has been made. In the event the Inapector’s Office finds that Hansmann’s conduct has been such as to justify his removal a recom-’ mendation that he be removed will be sent to Washington. The wording of the postal card is not ob- scene or profane. It charges that Hans- mann is too officious to bea satisfactory postmaster and expresses the belief of the writer that he should be removed. The writing is apaprently not that of a woman, though as the characters § are printed with a pen, that cannot be stated with certainty. According to Hansmann’s claim a clerk in a hardware store in St. Louis told him that Miss Whiteside left the card in the hardware store to be mailed . 4. Miss Whiteside and her sister state that they can readily establish the fact that she was notin St. uls any day last week, ex- cept Saturday. They are very positive that Miss Whiteside neither wrote nor mailed the card nor had any knowledge of it until she heard of Hansmann’s charges. Hansmann was appointed postmaster al Maplewood on the recommendation of “5n- ressman Bartholdt about six months —_ le didn’t live at Maplewood, having hia residence at Old Orchard, but the non-resi- dence of an appotntee is a small matter 10 the good Dr. Barthoidt. It i a matter of ostoffice history that he once had a Bt. Oulis man appointed postmaster at Jeffer- s0n Barracks and the appointee never got hia commission because the department at Washington was so ignorant as to gend it to Jefferson Barracks, where the appoi1tee never thought of going to inquire for mail. st is related further that this display of norance by the department nearly —_ he good Dr. Bartholdt the friendshi the St. Louis man, who, being from Rrie- sciri, had to be shown that the comiiis- tion was really sent to him. The pepe of Maplewood didn’t l’ke the idea of a non-resident postmaster and they made euch a row about it that Hansmann removed to Maplewood about a month xo. Last January Hansmann was appointed Justice of the Peace at Maplewood »y che Covnty Court. He has his iudicial office in the same bullae as the postoffice, and —" out at Maplewool say he takes 4 een delight in administering the law as he interprets it. He likes to try cases and he iz said to be a good computer and col- lector of costs. Attorney Pratt charges that Justice Hans- mann stirs up litigation. Mr. Pratt says Hansmann’'s desire to do 4 big business as a magistrate is at the bottom of his attack on ‘Miss Whiteside. Hansmann, according to Mr. Pratt and Mrs. Wilcox, induced a milkman to sue Miss Whiteside for # cents, alleging that it wag her purpose to leave Missouri! and 0 to Texas without paying the bill. Miss Vhiteside produced a receipt or the mon a it is sal engendered hard feeling oh ag Hansmann and Miss Whiteside and her relatives. Hansmann said to the Post-Dispatch: ‘“'I deny absolutely everything these women say about me. They are prejudiced be- cause I have tried to make them pay their debts. I have nothing elsé to say. Mrs. Wilcox, a refined looking, bright- yed little woman, with gray hair and a fae too young for such a frame gaid: “This whole thing Is abhorrent to us, but we were forced to act in omer to protect Tennie’s character. This man has made himself obnoxious, not only to us, but to every person ving in Maplewood. He has stirred up strife in thie community ever since he came here, ae ho ame lawsuits and trying to run the town ou g0 to Mr. Sutton, Mr. ~aecwe Beker, Judge Lip- elman. Mr. Marsha Mra. Harris. Mrs. Zennett, or any one else living here, and they will tell you how he stands in the community.” Probably a dozen persons were ques- tioned about the Postmaster. Every one ans- mann were frequent.

The Actress Tells the Story of the Meeting With Her Boy and How She Played to Him Alone Among All Her Auditors. v Epecial to the Post-Dispatch. rw YORK, Oct. 12.—Mrs. Leslie M. Carter has won the crowning glory of her Hfe. Her son has told her he loves her. Mrs. Carter is an actress of fame. Au- diences have cheered wildly her superb acting and she was happy That acting was as nothing compared with the rendition of Zaza a few nights ago. She played to one young man and he was her son. The Post-Dispatch reporter was her guest at the Fifth Avenue Hotel to secure her own story of the wonderful performance. She was surrounded by a group of admiring friends, Everywhere there were traces of the tri- UWmphal march of Zaza. Flowers in pro- fusion, wreaths of laurel, photographs of famous men and women with words of highest praise and sincere good wishes written across the pasteboard, followed by @utographs of undying celebrity. Here and there the photographs of a so- ciety woman or friend of old days in Chi- cago, Everything about the actress spoke of @ase, success, affection and fame. Mre. Carter held a picture between her Slender fingers, and as she gazed at it the Sunlight fell upon her wonderful red hatr until it seemed fairly to radiate from her lowing head. She leaned toward a woman who has known her since her girlhood and said: “This is my boy Dudley’s photograph. Isn’t he a fine creature? ‘The other day, just a week ago, I waé6e @itting here talking with my mother when there was a knock at the door. “Susan, my, maid, answered the knock and brought me an envelope, addressed in a boyish hand, to Mrs. Carter, “IT felt so strangely, and my fingers trem- bled so, I could scarcely open it. ““When I did I found it contained a card with just one word written upon it—‘Dud- OCeeeeeeeeeeeeeereereeee e*ee- eeeeeeee ee ee eeeeeeeee Friday Handkerchief Bargains.

In the Rural Districts Law Holds a Much Sway as in New England, WASHINGTON, Oct. 12.—An interesting report on the conditions existing in Ha- vana has been submitted to Maj.-Gen. Brooke by Brig.-Gen. Ludlow, Military Governor of the city, and transmitted to the War Department. After deseribing the lamentable state to which the city had been reduced by war, when “the most imperative requirements of a city government were abandoned,” he says: “Within thirty days of the beginning of American control, all this had been amend- ed. There is no means of estimating how many thousands of lives have been saved during the American occupation, partly by outright rescue with food and medicines, partly by giving work and employment to ‘he destitute and partly. by the reduced death rate from improved sanitary condl- tions, affecting the entire population. “It may be held that, aside from com- mercial or industrial considerations merely, the object lesson given by the adminis- trative and physical rehabilitation of Ha- vana that has been effected within a few months constitutes an enormous moral force, the results of which are to @ greater or less extent permanent and of incalcu- lable value in Cuba and elsewhere. “In Havana the rule of law is practi- cally complete. The rural districts are as orderly as in the interior of New Eng- land. These facts must be credited in great part to the measures adopted by the American administration, but it would be unjust not to credit the inhabitants thom- selves with a willingness to fall in with of the administration and to co-ope ‘As o'ces, awalt- rges and a riod of active mov Finuance of which tent to wh rendered at or 7 per cent instead of 10 to lb per cent, as formerly. “Einancial movements are likely to be more or less hesitating until some explicit conclusion is announced as to the future administration. ‘In a respect have the results thus far attained in Havana fallen short of satis- factory adjustment. The vital question of primary education {fs still practically un- cealved and the great majority of the Ha- vana children of school age are running wild in the streets without instruction or discipline. “The conditions of living are simple in this country. A livelihood is readily attained if the esentials of a patch of ground, a few tools and seeds can be had and a little aid the outset to those who are willing to earn their own living if given the opportunity. The people have learned to ask work instead of a pauperizing aid. and tools in place of food, and with the exception of a formidable residuum of help- less women and children the able-bodied are at work and earning their subsistence.” THE EXPANSION ISSUE. Brought to the Front by Masrachusetts Democrats. SOUTH BRAINTREE, Mass., Oct. 12.— The Democratic campaign in this State was opened here last night. The speakers at- tacked the national Administration for its Philippine policy and its attitude toward trusts. Robert Treat Paine, candidate for Governor, said: “The men who fought in 189 for the Dem- ocratic party received abuse enough to make their position clearly known. In 1896 I was more than ever a Democrat, because the convention of that year came closer to the people and issued a platform which pledged the alliance of the party absolutely to the interests of those whom Lincoln loved to call the plain people. “tiowever much we may deal with other janks of our platform, rejoice that the ving issue of the day this moment is a moral and constittuwional question, for which I shall argue in this autumn month in the tribunal of the people. “Republicans have called McKinley their Napoleon. Beware, lest he follow in the footsteps of Napoleon, when the acclaims of an enfranchised people shall turn into the execrations of the world. “If Congress, in furtherance of the wishes of our people, promised the Cubans self- government, by what right of divine au- thority does McKinley deem himself au- thorized to decree that the republic estab- lished in Luzon shall be washed out in blood ?”’ Order for Locomotives.

Taken From Home a Rope Was Placed ' About His Neck, but a Bullet Ended Life. NEW ORLEANS, La., Oct. 12—Judge Basil Laplace, prominent in the Louis- jana Legislature and State politics, was killed on his plantation at Ormond, St. Charles parish. He was accused of betraying the daughter of Edmond Trosler, his overseer. Tuesday night at 9 o'clock he was alone in the Ormond House, except for Oscar Dalliet, a white man, who lives on and looks after the place. Some one knocked at the door, and the Judge responded. Dal- liet heard the knock and foilowed = the Judge. He saw two masked men standing in the doorway, and as the Judge opened the door the men seized and hastily bound his arms to his side. Dalliet watched them take Judge Laplace through the yard and into the ;oad, where Dailiet discerned perhaps a score of men, also masked, in waiting. When Judge Lapiace was brought out to the crowd, the whitecappers fired shots into the air, with the evident intenlion’of ter- rorizing the neighborhood. Dalliet had seen enough and fied to the woods in the rear of the house. As he ran through the fleids he heard a singie shot, then all was still. Dalliet remained in the woods throughout the night, and at daybreak slipped to Rost, a station on the Yazo and Mississippi! Rail- road, two miles from the scene of the shooting. There he telephoned news of the tragedy to A. J. Laplace of this city, a brother of the murdered man. Mr. Laplace took the first train for St. Charles, accompanied by friends, reaching Ormond plantation at 9 o'clock in the morning. He found his brother's body ly- ing face upward in the public road. A thick rope was found beside the remains. An examination of the body showed that death had resulted from a shot in the back, which had severed the spinal cord. The belief in the parish is that it was only intended to whip the Judge, but when he had been brought out into the road an immosinte reaninre ef the girl, a! om Vv ) c tind ‘tim ‘and Aired the fatal shot, ’ Keane Pope’s attitude toward America Philippines and Cuba.

Judge Adams’ remarks in the United States Circuit Court Wednesday, 2n the importance of jury duty, were pointed and true. He said. that we need intelligent men for jury duty; that “it is the nien who are essentially energetic factors in the b less community that we want. The busier the man the ore fitted is he for jury service. We have no use for drones.” Energetic, busy members of the community are needed for jury duty. They alone can appreciate and understand the questions of fact with which juries have to deal. They alone can comprehend the importance of coming to a just conclusion as promptly as the circunistances will permit. Busy men ought to have public spirit enough’ not to shirk jury duty. In the exercise of that duty they are called upon to act as judges between their fellow men. And by performing his duty faithfully and willingly, they lay their fellow men nder obligation to deal in like manner with them if the oc- asion should arise. Shirking jury duty will, indirectly but surely, throw the momic and social fabric out of gear. Such shirking will imately react on the shirker. collector in New Orleans was not ® The duel fought by a tax with a tax dodger. >>> ww MARRIAGES THAT ARE ARRANGED, That love marriages in royal circles are rare is evident from the brief enumeration of such matches in the Sunday Post-Dispatch. Royal marriages are ‘arranged.’ That is the word. The young folks usually have nothing to do with the matter ex- cept to submit and accept the partner designated for reasons of state. : ’ Buch marriages, however, are not altogether confined to royalty. Whenever distinctions of class prevail choice is lim- ited by the barriers which separate one class from the others, As the distinctions become clearly marked the rule becomes ore rigid. The lover is no longer a human. He is a member J aclass and must not look above or below his own lével. In this country, where differences’ of condition are only just ripening into cluss distinctions, the custom is not so apparent, but it is growing in strength, and promises to become as rigid as in Europe. Individual )»references must give way to con- _ giderations of finance or other purely external conditions. ~*~ The movement seems to be inevitable, but it is not pleasant to think that men and women must make merchandise of their affections.

Each year from now on will see a further saving. Perhaps the time may come when the cities will be able to do without coal, and thereby avoid all the grime and foul gages }@ produces. The saving is brought about by the installment of great water power electric plants. A big dam has just been com- _ pleted in Michigan that produces a 40,000 volt current. This current will be used to light the streets and run street cars in Kalumazoo, Allegan, Battle Creek and Jackson. To do this the current will travel 90 miles through copper wires. The next biggest enterprise of the kind is the 33,000 volt plant, run by a waterfall ir the Santa Ana River, Cal., for light and to propel street cars in the city of Los Angeles. Buffalo, N. Y., gets electric light and power from Niagara, and Toronto will soon be doing the same thing. All over the werld the cutaracts are being harnessed, and every such harnessing means thousands of tons of coal saved per day. The reign of King Coal, with his grime, cinders and pallid faces, wi!l some day be ended and man will still be blessed with heat, light and power without consulting the black monarch. > > _— _ Hantia’s leg may not be pulled so much as some of his friends apprehend.

Britain and Bvuer ought to stop hostilities long enough to ask the poet Swinburne what he means by his sonnet, which has been cabled over seas, apparently to exasperate speakers of the English language. *~ What, Mr. Swinburne, are “foes less vile than men?” Did you have the doctrine of tctal depravity in mind when you wrote that sentence? Do you mean that the Boers are less Vile than men’? If so, how much less vile? And how vile are men, and what men? This thing of allowing poets to produce war whoops, in sonnet or any other form, just on the eve of hostilities, with- out making their meaning perfectly plain, ought to be stopped, There are several other exasperating, inarticulate yelps in Swinburne’s sonnet. If he felt too “mad” at the Boers to ex- press himself clearly, he should have said so. But he need mot necessarily have done it in rhyme. With factional knives and bar'ls of money the two great - Parties are making the Ohlo canvass very lively.

On such days and nights as he is not running about the country with Mr. McKinley, Secretary Root is working to see that the army is properly fed and clothed. Swinburne’s war sonnet is poor stuff.

(Miss Ethel Barrymore i{s unusual among actresses. In the first place, although she is barely out of her teens, she is playing what is, in all except name, a leading wo- man’s part, for the work required of her as Stella de Gex in “His Excellency, the Governor,” at the Olympic this week is of that character. Then, although she has high aspirations, she says she wishes to wait at least five years before becoming a star. And finally she does not care to play either Juliet or Lady Macbeth, and that is the most surprising part of it all. Miss Barrymore comes of a long line of stage folk, and thus inherits her ability to act. And that she has decided ability all those who have been fortunate enough to see her in this play are certain. She impersonates therein a woman of the world, worldly, and one wonders how, with her few years and brief stage experience, she can do it so well and so naturaliy. It is most unusual for Charles Frohman |. to give his leading part to so young a woman, He is the representatively con- servative manager, who feels all of his ground and acts accordingly. But, even in the face of warnings from his friends, he gave this slip of a girl the chance she wanted, and he scored another telling suc- cess in her triumph, Ethel Barrymore is a slender young woman, very tall, with brown hair—she wears a red wig in the play—and striking eyes. She has a sunny smile and a delight- ful voice and is simple and unaffected, the same off the stage as she is on it. This is her first good part, although she has done stage work for four years; this is her first real chance, as she says, and she is mak- ing the most of it. “Folks know I am young,” she said, when chatting of her work, ‘and they expect to see me come on the stage in white, with blue ribbons at my neck and my waist, and have one of these, ‘Oh, Papa!’ parts. They are surprised when they see what I do. But taht sort of a part—the ‘blue sash’ ones, I call them—is what I have had up till thie season. It was very kind of Mr. Frohman to give me this place, and I ap- preciate it, I assure you. ‘‘Did I fear to take it? No, but my friends did. I could see that. When they heard that I had the place, they said they were glad—in that sad tone of voice, don’t you know, that means: ‘Oh, we hope you will do it well, but—’. But I like the part, and thoroughly enjoy the work. It is a fine thing to stand in front of an audience and make it laugh at what you say, in the way that this play calls for.’’ It was then that she was asked about her ambitions. She replied: “Of course, I want to be a star, but not till I am fitted to be one. You see, I am very young, and I think if I can have five years in good parts—parts that I can learn from—I will be able to star much better than I could now. If I can get the parts— if not, it may take me ten years—I will learn. “My ambition is towards comedy of the I would Hke to play Rosa- I have no desire to try Ju- let. as 1 do’not believe it ever can be played properly: and I do not care to ap- pear as Lady Macbeth.” Miss Barrymore is fond of beautiful gowns and likes parts that enable her to wear them. She says of this feature: “I try to dress on the stage just as I would off, at the same t:me and in the same circumstances. The gowns that I wear in this play I could wear in a parlor or to a dinner, anywhere. The black one, in the second act, I like very much. It is ae ye to be very effective from over the foot- lights, and I think it fs.” One more query Was put to her. She shook her head. “No,” she said, emphatically. “It Is not true. I am not engaged.”’ She referred to the reported te mar- riage between herself and Laurence Irving, son of Sir Henry. She Is, you will remem- ber. the most engaged young woman in the profession, according to rumor. Miss Barrymore has the opportunity be- fore her that not one actress of her years in a thousand ever had. She has the good will of the foremost manager of the day— Frohman—and she has all the encourage- ment that one could ask to make a success under him, and in the always excclient school that he advocates. That so is assured, first, by her earnestness so lay Ophelia. re she will do | RYAN-CLARKSON silk remnants.

EWING AND ANSON. They Will Pull Together in Making a Success of the New League. | GHICAGO, Oct. 12.—During Capt. Adrian C. Anson's recent visit to Cincinnatl he met Buck Ewing, the present manager of the Cincinnati club and talked te him about the new baseball league. The old baseball captain ard Mr. Fwing were constantig. together while tha two were in Cincinnat!, and ft ts assured they will work hand In hand In making a t#ue- cess of the new league. Buck Ewing tn his conversation with Capt. Ansoa assured the latter that as soon as the new league was welded into form he would be more than willing to give it his suppert and break away entirely from the old i¢agne, “One thing is certain,”’ said Mr. Aneon last night, “the prospects for the new league look well anyway. As any players as we Want stand ready to be signed by us. We are oro | jooking over the fleld now, however, and do not Intend to stan any men until we get the very best. This is onlp a question of time, .or nearly ail of theen are pretty sure to come oun way. Of course the first thing we shall do is to get some good pitchers and then the rest of the players will come cas Mr. Ewing and myself had the best kind of a time while we were away. In my estimation he as a great hold on the Cincinnati club tn spite of the rumors to the contrary, and this is pretty sure to give the new lesgue no little or We are, of course, working quietly all the time and will continue to de so for a while yet.”’ M’COY IN CINCINNATI. He Goes There to Defend a Suit Insti- tuted Two Years Ago. CINCINNATI, O., Oct. 11.—"Kid"” McCoy arrived in Cincinnat! this morning to de- fend a suit for $278, instituted against him over two years ago by Harry Shafer. Shafer went to Syracuse, N. Y., at Me- Coy’s suggestion, it le claimed, to wok atfer the fighter’s financial interests in his con- test with Tommy Ryan and was to re- ceive his expenses and 6 per cent of Me- Coy's winnings for hia services. After the fight McCoy Is said to have avoided Shafer, who did not press him for the payment of the claims until after Me- Coy had defeated Creedon. McCoy repudi- ated the debt, it is alleged, and Shafer en- tered the suit. The suit will be heard be- fore Judge Smith on an appeal to-morrow morning. Association of Football Clubs. The Association of Football Clubs will open its season on Sunday, Oct. 2. he games acheduled for that day are West Endg vs. Cycling Club at Athletic Park and Shanirocks vs. C. B.

THE TEUSCHER OVERDRAFTS. “KITING’ OF CHECKS KNOWN TO THE CASHIER. Testimony Respecting the Mullanphy Bank Reveals the Actual ‘Con- dition of Its Affairs. \ ~_-_—-_— W. G. Hoss attorney for Receiver Wil- Ham J. Stone in the latter’s sult for $250,000 against the directors of the @efunct Mul- lanphy Savings Bank, has completed the examination of former Cashier L. G. Kam- merer on the indebtedness of the Consum- ers’ Coal Co. to the bank, and has taken up the T. 8. Teuscher overdraft. ¢ Cashier Kammerer was questioned ciose- ly about the Teuscher dealings Thursday and the examination proceeded slowly be- cause he frequently found it necessary to appeal to records to refresh his memory. Mr. Kammerer insisted that the Teuscher indebtednegs fell upon the bank unexpect- edly, as it was supposed that all he had borrowed and overdrawn was amply se- cured. When. therefore, it was found the security was ‘inadequate to the indebted- ness e direetors were at sea for a method of proceeding. Mr. Kammerer anid he volunteered to pay $150 a month on the Feuscher interest out of his salary, and that his ‘Wao Was accepted. hat was in 1894. Vhen asked if any record was made A, that agreement, he said there was none at that time. He was then given the minute book of the board meetings to examine and asked if any entry oaf a reduction of his galar from $400 to $30 a month could be found. He read an entry to that effect, made in January, 1896, 18 months after Re had made the agreement. But he said he ha®@aid his $150 ering that time and accounted for the delay in putting the agreement on rec- ord by the statement that it had been neglected at the first annual meeting after it Was entered into and was only thourht | of at the following meeting. Mr. Kammerer declared that only the dis- count committee knew of this arrangement as it was not brought before the Board o Directors. ‘He said he was not required to make payments out of his salary, but had done so to help the bank out of great trou- ble, as he had done on at least one other occasion. ‘Mr. Kammerer was asked if he knew what Teuscher was doing while he was hav- ing heavy transactions with the bank. He replied that he did not. (Attorney Hoss showed him 30 checks, aggregating $240,000, drawn by Teuscher on the bank in June and July, 1894, and made payable to the Culver Grain Co., and asked him if he had ever seen them. He replied that he had, but insisted that they didn’t give 7 any evidence that Teuscher. was dealin rain futures. He said he had talke wie Teuscher about the checks and had been informed that Teusch- er and the grain company , were only Swapping checks, or “kiting,” the grain company giving him a check for $5000 In exchange for one of Kammerer said Teuscher claimed this system gave him the use of the grain check for one day in his liquor deal, and he was enabled to pay off the old one with a similar one the next aay He said this was called “‘kfting’’ by bankers and brokers and was frequent- ly resorted to as pe safe method of tiding one over a financial difficulty. Mr. Kammerer said Teuscher had deal- ing of a siimlar nature with other com- ssion companies.

LOUIS, WANTED-—SALESMEN. 25 Expert Shee Salesmen for This Great Fire Sale. Leonard of the Stapleton Police Station went down to Quarantine at once to take charge of the fragment Much of the paper wrappings had been washed away, but some pieces clung to the twine tied about the fragment. The parts of the body now missing are the head, the arms, the legs from above the knee down and the right thigh, which was found, but carted off to the city dumps. No one was permitted to view the frag- ment closely until after the doctors had finished their examination, Before they arrived a reporter had a good look at it. The paper wrappings had all been washed away except one portion ofa newspaper which clung under the cord on the right side. What looked like a deep stab wound was just over the left breast. It was only an inch long, but looked deep. The neck had been hacked off in so jag- ged @ manner and so close to the trunk that a piece of the flesh of the chest had been torn loose and flapped down on the breast bone. The arms had been hacked off in a precisely similar way. A few of the floating ribs had been severed. The lower portion of the fragment and pert of the right breast were smeared with lack—evidently coal dust. It was tied about three times with stout yachting three-stranded marline cord. It had been vound around the fragment lengthwise first, then turned and wound about the chest so tightly that it cut into the flesh, Aftey the fragment had been examied by Drs. Whitman and Mord, at Hughe’s Mor- gue, Dr. Mord said: “Our examination was, naturally, some- waht superficial, but we find that the bust measured 36 inches. There was a cut in the left side.. It was manifestly a_ stab wound, and was one and one-half inches deep. It sloped downward toward the breast, but did not penetrate the heart. This, should say, was caused by a slip of the knife employed. We had no means of determining whether or not it was a ost-mortem or ante-mortem wound. We eft that to be decided by the authorities in Manhattan. “In removing the left arm the humerus was cut off with a saw, leaving a por- tion of the bone in the socket at the shoulder. The bone was not sawed through, but was finally broken off. The right arm, on the contrary, had been taken out of the socket. All the bones showed the work of a saw. Al) the cuts were jagged. Partic- ularly was this so about the neck. ‘The heart and lungs were intact. It is impossible for us to state, or even guess, at the cause of death. The cuttings were made either by an experienced person with a dull knife, or by an inexperienced person with a shayn knife. As soon as a permit was obtained the fragment was shipped to the Morgue in Manhattan. A long golden hair and many Dits of coal and slivers of wood were found among the newspaper hg yy that were around other fragments. The either that the victim was a blonde or that one of the persons who assisted in the butchery was a blonde woman. The doctors say the victim had brown hair. The bits of coal and wood lead to the conclusion that the work was done ina cellar or kitchen. The houses within a radius of half a mile of the probable scene of the crime have been or are being scoured for further evidence. The police are looking for a smal] man in a light overcoat, who was seen on the dock at the time a woman threw a bundle into the river. Chief Devery has himeelf taken charge o7 the case. His right-hand men are Capt. Price, in whose precinct the left fragment was found, and Capt. Schmitt- were lisposed of. To-day they will continue a round-up of the midwives in the city. Every one of them will be submitted to a searching ex- amination, and their premises will be ran- sacked for evidence. The finding of the right thigh by Mrs. Billings on Friday morning takes the prob- able date of the murder back to Thurs- day night, a day earlier than the finst de- velopments indicated. The condition of the left thigh, found Sat- urday morning, indicated, according to most of the experts, that the woman was alive Friday. All agreed that ehe had not been dead more than 48 hours. It is now almost certain that she died be- fore midnight Thursday and that her body was cut up while still warm. The mur- derers must have etarted at once to dis- pose of the fragments. That they were not more than two in number and that their facilities were lim- ited {s proved by the haphazard way in which hey went about disposing of thé fragments. That the first part wae tucked in an ash can Thursday n’ght; the second, thrown in the gutter Friday night and the third part dumped in the river Saturday night, proves that the guilty reons carried the body lecemeal throu the streets, trusting to uck to get rid of it all without discovery. Whether they had time and opportunity to dispose of the parts yet und vered is atical. If not, thec ce of catch- wil Tag’ tren red-handed be vastly im- NONE WILL SEE THIS WEDDING Bride, Groom, Best Man, Officiating Justice, Guests and Orchestra Players, All Are Blind.

HISTORY OF THAT $20,000,000. Former Peace Commissioner | Denies That the Islands Are Ours by Right of Conquest. COLUMBUS, O., Oct. 12.—Judge Wiliam R. Day, who was president of the Ameri- can Peace Commission, has written a let- ter to former Congressman D. K. Watson of this city, in which he discusses for the first time the retention of the Philippines. Judge Day sets forth the reasons which, in his mind, justified the payment of $20,- 000,000 for the Philippines, declaring that it was never contemplated by the American Commissioners that the United States had a right to the Philippines as a matter of conquest. He writes: “It was not claimed that the! United States had a right to the Philippine Islands as a matter of conquest. The United States has never undertaken, so far as I Know, to wrest from a foreign country lands! or pos- sessions simply by right of conquest. Had we been disposed to do so it must be re- menrbered that we were in possession only of the city, bay and harbor of Manila un- der the protocol of Aug. 12, 1898, provid- ing that the United States should occupy and hold the same pending the conclusion of a treaty of peace which should determine the control, disposition and government of the Philippines. The capture after the signing of the protocol, by Gen. Merritt and his forces, whatever its legal effect may have been, included no more territory than we were entitled to hold under the pro- tocol. 3 “In addition to the hope of accomplishing immediate peace, which I need harily say was of great importance at that time, there was 4 strong desire to treat Spain with a degree of magnanimity consistent with our national honor and prestige, following our national precedent In the treatment of Mex- ico for the cession of territory to us at the close of the Mexican war. “By the cession, for a consideration. we obtained an-indisputable title which must be respected by all other antions. It must be remembered, too, that the American commissioners had consistently refused to assume any of the outstanding debts or ob- ligations which Spain had undertaken to fasten upon the Philippines. Notwithstand- ing our offer to pay for pacific improve- ments, Spain has not undertaken to gub- stantiate any claim upon that ground. “Of course, I speak only for myself, and I write these views without opportunity to consult with my fellow-commissioners. In my judgment the concession referred to was effectual in bringing about an accept- ance of our proposals, which resulted in the making of the treaty. “In this conclusion I cordially agree with the following remarks of Senator Gray, ong of the commissioners, made at the Ohio So- clety dinner in New York, Feb. 3%, 1899: ““When, after four or five weeks of doubt and anxiety, it became apparent that these nogotiations must elther be broken off and your commissioners return without a treaty at all, and that we would be rel- egated to the necessity of taking not only the Phillippines, but Cuba and Porto Rico, by the ruthless hand of conquest, or by some concessions that comported with the magnanimity and greatness and character of this treaty of peace. And, therefore, we believe that it was better for this country, strong in the hour of its victories, In the hour of its triumphs, that it should, to a beaten and prostrate foe, exhibit that mAg- nanimity of which I spoke, and take from them by voluntary cession and by purchase, 80 to speak, those distant islands, rather than expose ourselves in the eyes of the world as meres @ role of barbaric con- quest, and by military power tread the path of medieval rapine and warfare.’ “The advanced position which the United States has always maintained in its itnter- national relations, its opposition to any- thing like harsh or severe treatment of a falien foe, as well as other cogent reasons, would seem to justify the payment of 000,000 as an act dictated from points, City Ticket Office, No, 108 | policy, sense of national honor, as well ou g a ve Ae elie Urea. i ——» The Famous of the Great Bottled Beers The Original Budweiser, Anheuser-Busch Export Pale, Black and Tan, '§ Food-Drink, for ill or well, the Anheuser-Busch Brewing BUTTE ON TOBOGGAN THE MONTANA CITY IS SLIDING DOWN HILL FOUNDATION GIVING WAY. Geologists Say a Cleaving Is Taking Place in the Rock on Which the City Rests. BUTTE, Mont., Oct. 12.—This city is on a toboggan siide. It is gradually sliding down hill The evidence of it is seen on 4 number of large buildings and residences, including the County Courthouse and the residence of United States Senator W.. A. Clarke, which have been cracked and fissured from one side to the other. Geologists, who have investigated the phenomenon, express the opinion that the bulidings damaged are located on a seam of rock or earth along which a alide separ- ation or cleavage is taking place. The evi- dence of a slide is seen from the County Courthouse, which ts located on West Gran- ite street, about half way up the long hill upon the siope of which the city Is bullt, and from that point west two blocks and southwest to near the western Umits of the city. The heavy brick inside walis of the court- house have cracked from top to bottom. rhe handsome residence of Senator Clarke, Situated a block and a half further west, has been fissured clar through the bulld- ing from east to west, and on the west side from the roof through three stories down to the ground, at the bottom the fis- suve being over an inch wide, as if the southern portion of the house had followed the slide, while the north half remained solid. The Stucco work and decorative oy | on the tnside clar through the house from one place to the other is simi- larly fissured. The First Presbyterian Chirch, a block south, on Broadway, has also been cracked by the slinding movement of the earth, and several brick residences to the weat like- wise, all happening within the last few weeks. here has n no mining under that portion of the city. ‘Wicked War. ) Soup Soreas Laurel Vegetable; full : BEST GROCERIES AT SPECIAL PRICES FRIDAY and SATURDAY.
