Nagel, Joseph Barr and the Burton Realty Co. applied to the Circuit Court Friday for an injunction restraining the Lindell Railway Co. from extending its division along Hamilton avenue. The plantiffs say they hold large landed interests along Hamilton avenue and that they will be irreparably injured if the com- pany is allowed to construct its lines ac- cording to its present plans. The plaintiff tending to proceed under a permission or ordinance passed by the Muicipal Assem- bly. But it is averred the null and void and the court is asked to de- clare it so. says the defendant is pre- ordinance is The petition says in part: “It is claimed the defendants are acting under said ordinance, but said ordinance and franchise were never legally passed and adopted by the Municipal Assembly of said city; that said pretended ordinance and franchtse were fraudulently and cor- ruptly passed by the Municipal Assembly of said city, by reason of said defendants, their agents, servants and attorneys, cor- ruptly bribing and paying the City Alder- men, Councilmen and members of the Munl- cipal Assembly, large sums of money or promising to pay the Aldermen, Council- men and members of the Municipal Assem- bly of the said City of St. Louis etocks, bonds, privileges or large sums of money to vote for said pretended franchise and ordinance; that by reason of said franchise and ordinance being granted by the fraud and corruption aforesaid, satd ordinance and franchise are null and void and should be held for naught and declared null and vold by the court.’’ It is also alleged that the residents and property owners along Hamilton avenue are oppoeed to the extension and believe that their property wil be permanently injured by the extension.

Against Kimberley On }rakensberg At Volksrust and Utrecht On the Portuguese frontier Orange Free State troops Grand total Total British force opposing ish soldiers were killed by the Boers to- day, and the first blood of the war has been shed. Transvaal troops attacked and destroyed an armored train on the Cape to Cairo Railway, between Mafeking and Vry- burg. The Boers, in considerable force, had planted artillery in a position command- ing a curve of the railway, and after the train had been derailed they turned their guns on the cars, killing 15 of the Brit- ish soldiers who were doing duty as train guards. / It was at first believed that the train destroyed by the Boers was one carry- ing 300 refugees, wamen and children, from Mafeking to Kimberley. But the dispatch from Vryburg says that train passed through on the way to Kimberley to-day. The train destroyed was most likely a military train, with troops on board as guards. All armored trains consist of an engine and four cars, with a searchlight, loopholes for Gatlings and quick-firing guns and a tower for observation, all cov- ered with heavy iron plates. The situation of Col. Baden Powell's force, which is less than 1500, at Mafe- king is now rendered desperate. The Boers hold the railway, both north and south of Mafeking. A large force of Boers uder Gen. Cronje are encamiped noz far away. It is expected that they will shell the town. All the streets in Mafeking are barri- code'. Defensive outworks have been raised and mines have beea placed in every direction. Kimberly is about in the same position tion as Mafeking. Before Kimberley, the Orange Free State troops have moved three miles nearer, 3500 strong, with four field guns. Opposing them are 3000 British. On the northern frontier, Col. mer’s force of 600 is still facing Boers. A late dispatch from Vryburg says: The Boers, with 12 guns, are preparing to assault Mafeking.

CAPE TOWN, Oct. 13.—Fifteen Brit- | ing to a dispatch just The Boer forces, with artillery, accord | aal strength in the field at 21,000 men, dis- received from Standerton, broke camp at Sandsprvit yesterday morning, moving in the direc- tion of Natal. ENGLAND KNOWS WAR IS ON The Killing of British Soldiers Shows That the Boers Are in Grim Earnest. LONDON, Oct. 13.—The announcement that the Boers had destroyed an armored train on the western border of the. Trans- vaal is calculated to bring home to “the man in the street” the realities of war. Attempts are made to liken the occurrence to the blowing up of the United States Battleship Maine in Havana harbor, but that event occurred in times of peace. The Boers were, doubtiess, within their rights ag belligerents if they are responsi- ble for the destruction of the train. Taken in conjunction with. the earlier an- nouncement from Vryburg that 2000 Boers were holding the line, it can only be in- ferred that the train was either destroyed by artillery or blown up by dynamite or some other powerful explosive. The gravity of the Boer advance can be better estimated when it is realized that they will thereby cut railway and tele- graphic communication to the north, iso- lating several] British positions which must be speedily relleved. Despite the optimistic reporte of the abil- ity of Mafeking to repel attacks, the great- est anxiety prevails here rpgarding the situ- ation there, as it is known that the re- doubtable commandant, Cronje, who cap- tured the Jameson raiders, has the strong- exception of Commandant General bert’s force. Cronje’a troops number be- tween nine and ten thousand men. The position in Natal has not materially altered. The reported inroad of 3000 Boers by way of Tintwa Pass is probably iden- tical with the inroad of the force reported yesterday as-having crossed Van Reenan’'s Page.

BRITISH FLYING SQUADRON England Will Not Be Caught Napping in Case of Trouble With Euro- pean Powers. Special Cable to the Post-Dispatch, Copyright, 1899, by the Press Publishing Company.

PARIS, Mo., Oct. 13.~—The evidence against Alexander Jester as the murderer of Gil- bert Gates grows stronger. The most important testimony given to- day was that of Squire Dodge of Wichita, Kan., before whom Jester was arraigned in Kangas in 1871. He has the transcript of the original and only statement made by’ Jester as to what became of Gilbert Gates, which is as follows: “Gilbert Gates left me two miles north of the Missouri River, near Boonville, and said that he was going to his home in IIlll- noise, I had bought his team for $325 the day before and had asked him to remain with me two days and offering him half the proceeds from showing the buffalo calf. He said he had received a letter from his father urging him to sell the team and come home.” Jester, however, does not state how he came into possession of Gates’ watch and clothing. It now looks as if the preiimi- nary will be the real trial, as the State is anxious to get the testimony of all the aged witnesses, for fear they may die before the trial proper. Most of the witnesses yester- day were trembling octogenarians. Many witnesses identified Jester. He has changed expression but once du¥ing the proceedings. A faint smile overspread his grim face when a Mgxico newspaper man attempted to requote a,passage of Scrip- =e ester had used i®Rgnv rsation with im. Mr. Cullen referred: again in the trial to the use of money by John W. Gates to hang Jester, and drew an immediate confession from Rodes and Forrest that such was really the case, and that Mr. Gates in the legitimate use of money in employing 4as- sistant counsel and paying railroad fare exercising the rights accorded to and used by relatives in seven out of ten murder cases tried in this country. Mr. Rodes said to the reporter this morn- ing that John W. Gates would advancs money to pay railroad fare to the Missouri State line and would receive in return from the witnesses their scrip, which he would collect from the State of ‘Missouri. So Mr. Gates will loge nothing, It now transpires that ex-Sheriff Um- stattd of this county had Jester located five years ago, and so wrote the elder Gates but the latter wrote back that he now had continue the hunt. Many incident’s in Jester’s career show- ing his cruelty, hypocrisy and rascality are related by Indiana witnesses. One man tells of’ him stripping his two boys to the skin, giving them a cowhide each and standing over them with a pistol, compelling them to lash one another until the blood flowed Another says that Jester when exhorting in the pulpit put pepper in his eyes in order that he might cry at the proper time. He has a nephew here who says he has killed half a dozen people. The nephew is also a preacher. Squire Dodge says that Jester undoubted- ly murdered an unknown doctor who stopped at his house in ‘Nowanda, Kan., in the ‘70s. The ttwo rode off together and the doctor was ‘never seen afterwards, though Jester came back with his medicine case and horse. The Sheriff was afraid to arrest Jester because ha@ was backed. up by the most desperate set of men in the Southwest and lived in a wild and for- saken portion of the country. The State will endeavor to prove that Jester cut the throat of young Gates and a the instrument with which it was one. Squire Dodge in his testimony this morn- ing said that Jester’s story was straight and that the only thing on which he held him was the vest of Gilbert Gates in his® possession, which he puten in court. It did not fit. This led out a rally from Mr. Cul- len, who said, ,“Mhen you are the justice who held a man fom murder in the first degree because his vest didn’t fit.

He also charged that if the jury believed from the evidence that the defendant had been #0 wrought up in his mind by the threats of the deceased to publish a defamatory article about his daughter that for the time being the defendant's mind wis wrong, they could find him guilty of manslaughter in the fourth degree.

T'S SNOWING IN COLORADO But You Wouldn’t Think It When You Looked at the Qctober Thermom- eter in St. Louis. St. Louls is having a touch of July weather. It is unusual, “but not a record breaker. During October of last year the mercury climbed above the 90 mark. Dr. Hyatt thinks it may get warmer: he is positive it will not be cooler before Sat- urday night. At noon Friday the thermometer on top of the Federal Building registered 86 de- rees. That means a temperature of about on the street. The weather man anticipated the pres- ent meteorological conditions. Otherwise, he says, he might be temporarily unhappy. Indeed, Dr. Hyatt is ‘wearing his summer trousers and a seersucker coat that is rent near the elbow He put the blame for the heat on the Southern winds and that “iow” which is hovering just north of St. Louis. He looks to the high over the Rocky Moun- tains for relief. It is snowing in Colorado and through the Northwest. The doctor doesn’t predict rain, though a small shower wouldn't surprise him, I will be remembered that he said there was a good chance of rain for St. Louis and vicinity Thursday night. Instead it was dewey; though the Admiral is not expected for a while. BISHOP JANSSEN DID. 17 rick’s Without Waiting to Hear from Sig. Martinelli. Father Charles Sweeney, the new ap- pointee of Bishop Janssen as pastor of St. Patrick’s Church in East St. Louis, will conduct masses in the church for the first time on Sunday, Oct. 22. Father Harkins of St. Mary’s Parish, it 1s understood, will continue to serve as administrator of St. Patrick's Parish until the successor of Father Cluse is duly in- Stalled as pastor. Father Harkins says that Bishop Janssen took the initiative in respect to his selec- tion of Father Sweeney to succeed Father Cluse without waiting for a message from Mgr. Martinelli, the papal delegate, to whom Father Cluse’s letter of resignation was submitted some time ago. “In fact,’’ said Father Harkins to the Post-Dispatch Friday, ‘‘there has been no message of any character directly concern- ing the resignation of Father Cluse, and the selection of another prelate, received from Mgr.

CONTINUED FROM PAGE ONE. were probably close to the solution of the most mysterious murder mystery in the po- lice records. Lally, who has worked on the case since it became a case and followed faithfully every scrap of evidence to a conclusion, ) probably took a deeper personal interest than the others, The Jeu Chow case keeps him awake o’ nights. To solve the mystery is his greatest present ambition. The grave diggers lifted the lid of the casket. .What remained of poor Chow, in- nocent Celestial, murdered in a foreign land, was disclosed. The sight was unpleasant, even to the hysicians and Chief Campbell, who was n the early days of his police career a patrolman in charge of the City Morgue. ‘l'‘he sexton’ sagely remarked that it would be a long time before ‘‘they could clean jis bones and send them back to China.”’ hig is a custom followed by the Chinese, The farmer drove on, and the cemetery employes drifted far down among the trees away from the open space where are the graves of the Chinese. Dr. Wolfort, who did the actual work, began his task, while the chief, the other physicians and Detective Lally looked on closely. Time had worn the skull almost clean. The great hole, with jagged edges, showed Plainly. It was nearly circular and almost two inches in diameter. There were sev- eral indentations in the skull besides the hole.

No trace was found. There was no bullet in the body and no bullet wound. : Detective Lally had the horseshoe with him, The shoe and the hole and the in- compared. Dr. Drechsler stated positively that Chow was beaten to death with the horseshoe and that he was not shot. The other physicians concurred. Chief Campbell and Detective Lally were satisfied from their own ob- servations that such was the case. It should be stated in this connection that no positive belief had ever been entertained that Chow was shot. There was only a possibility of such being the case. The examination simply disposed of this phase of a theory and removes it from the field of investigation. Chow was put back in his casket, lowered into the grave and left to lie in peace with his rice bowl, his opium pot, hie chopsticks and the candles above him, there to remain until his kinsman shall send his bones back to the land whence he came. Detectives Lally and Harrington will con- tinue at work on the mystery. Each of them declares that while they may not be nearer a geolution than they were Thurs- day success is inevitable. THEORIES OF A.STRANGE CRIME. Facts Developed During and Subse- . quent to the Inquest. The Jue Chow murder has been regarded as the most mysterious crime in the his- tory of St. Louis. There was no apparent motive for the murder. No reasonable explanation can be offered as to how and why this inoffen- Sive Chinese was killed or how and why his body was hidden in the out of the way place where it was found, except one—the theory on which Detectives Lally and Har- rington have worked exclusively ever since they arrived at the conclusion, some time after the discovery of the body, that no other theory was tenable. This theory was that Jue Chow was shat and beaten to death by persons familiar with the premises where his body was found and stored away under the oil tank by men who had access to the yards of the oil company, and to whom the gates that locked the public out after 6:3 p. m. were open. This theory was disbelieved by almost every person to whom it was advanced. The Coroner dispelled the theory by show- ing—through a post-moterm examination— that Jue Chow came to his death from a skull fracture made with a blunt instru- ment, and not from a bullet. This theory being knocked sky high by the Corner, none remained that would withstand a common sense review of the known facts. It should be stated that Messrs. Lally and Harrington was the murder was not premeditated; Chow was beaten to death after he been accidentally shot. Chow was ai celestial in § financial Straits. He was 43 years old. He lived in St. Louis a number of years ago and dur- ing the period of his first residence here he conducted a restaugant on Walnut street. He failed in business and left the city. He tried and failed in restaurant and laundry ventures in southern cities and re. turned to St. Louis in November, 1898 He was in poor health and unable to work steadily. He made his home*with various members of the Jue family. During a verlod of several weeks prior to his death e lived at the laundry of Jue Poe, 1453 O'Fallon street. He was last seen alive March 27 in the block on Market street between Seventh and Eighth streets. Lee Wah had a short conversation with Chow at that time on a commonplace topic. It Was, as near as Lee remembered, in the middle of the day. Chow's body was discovered under a gasoline tank in the yards of the Waters- Pierce Oil Co., on Gratiot street, between Thirteenth and Fourteenth streets, at 10:30 a. m., April 5. The discovery was acci- dental. It was made by a boy who peered under the tank in search of a lost marble The body lay in one of the two passage Ways that run through the tank’s foun- dation of masonry. The ende of the pass- ageway are screened from the outside by a peculiar construction of the foundation on one end and a wooden platform on the other end. To obtain a view of the interior of the passageway one must crawl eround an angle formed by the foundation at one end and the platform on the other. The passageway is about 30 inches wide and 36 inches high. Only the end where the piat- form is has an opening large enough to ad- mit the passage of the body of a man. And to get in this way one must craw! under the -latform a distance of five feet, turn the eharp corner and enter the pass- age way proper. Chow’s body lay at full There was a hat near the body. This much the boy saw and those he summoned saw the same. Now, unfortun- ately, the uninformed members of the Po- lice Department, who went under the tank and removed the body, did not make olose goservation of the conditions that existed They found a blood-stained handkerchief. a heavy horse shoe with congealed Blood and hair on one of the calks, and the hat But these officers did not note where these articles iay relat've to the position of the body. Nor did they examine as they en- tered for foot prints. They dragged the body out, put the handkerchief in the hat and put the hat on the head of the body and sent “‘the thing’ to the Morgue. The horseshoe was thrown away. As soon as the body had been removed dozens of persons crawled into the passage- way. The tread of the curious ob,iterated whatever clue might have been left by the feet of the man or men who placed Chow’e body In the safe sepulchre. Detectives Lally and Harrington called in to their chief by telephone at about 2:30 Pp. m. on the day the body was discovered and were assigned to ‘take the cafe.’’ That ia, they were ordered to arrest |the murderer or murderers of Jue Chow. | The detect'ves made a minute examina- tion of the passageway. As haa been aaid, nothing could he learned from the foot prints. There were marks of blood on’ the Walls of the passageway, but it could not be determined whether these had been made in carrying Chow into the hiding p.ace-or out of it. The detectives learned of the horseshoe and secured it. Now for the tank. It is situated near Gratiot street, about 10 feet from the fence, and about 15 feet from the frame of- fice building in the yard, The fence, which extends entirely arofind the works, {is 9 feet high. There are two Kates on the Gratiot street side, one on either side of the tank. There is a space of not more than $3 inches between the cround and the gates. The office commanda a view of both gates. There are workmen in the yards about the tank end several cierks in the office. The body could not have been placed ynder the tank in daylight without attracting the attention of several the theory of that Jeu had length. er’s, too. if we do say it. and Cassimeres. , Is your.boy’s age between those figures % If so, We have some beautiful Juvenile Suits That will attract his fancy—and his moth- Here are Fancy Worsted and Cheviot SUITS, with silk-faced Coats and double- breasted Vests, that are simply beautiful, For the rough boy we have extra TROUSERS in Fancy Worsteds, Cheviots We keep everything in Furnishings for the boys besides. rowning.d ving & No. Broadway and Pine, THERE ARE NO OTHERS “JUST AS GOOD!” Brass and Iron Beds.

As soon as the workmen leave for the day, about 6 p. m., the night watchman locks the gates mentioned. The watchman is obliged to go !nto the office every 15 minutes to register on an automatic spying machime. The machine showed that the watchman registered as required each night during the period be- tween the day when Chow @vas seen alive and the day his body was discovered. RKe- membering that the tank is but 15 feet from the office and that the watohman en- tered the office every 15 mimutes, the per- sons whe hid the body must have worked exceedingly fast and well to avoid detection by the watchman. That was difficult enough, but the fence! How was the body gotten over or under the fence? The gates were locked, the fence was nine feet high and the only hole under the fence was beneath the gate—nine inches that hole was. These facts would seem to render it an impossibility to drag the body under or hoist it over, and store it away. all within 15 minutes, the grace allowed the murderers by the automatic register for the watchman. Obviously the man could not have been murdered inside the yard without the watchman’s knowledge. Lally and Harrington went into the case without being bound to a theory. . They tried to trace Chow from the time he was seen, on March 2, and failed ut- terly. They established the fact that if there was enmity against Chow in his own race none of his relatives knew of it. The popular Highbinder theory was exploded. Highbinders leave marks behind showing plainly—as they desire them to—that the death of the victim was their doing. High- binders do not conceal their crimes. They conceal themselves only, for by the number of their crimes is their power Increased. 4 When the Highbinder theory was sug- gested the statement that the wounds on the head had probably been made with a hatchet, favorite weapon of the Highbind- er assassin. was made. i Dr. Wolfrot of the Coroner's office, who made the post-mortem examination. ex- pressed the opinion that one of the wounds was probably made with the blunt end of hatehet and the cuts were made with the biade of the same Instrument. Lally and Harrington learned that a shot was fired on the night of April 3 in the vicinity of the oil tank. Dr. Wolfort said there was no bullet wound in the body. But Lally and Harrington arrested Night- watchman Fred Ficker of the Waters- Pierce O11 Co. and took him before Chief Desmond Ficker was released. He testified at the Coroner's Inquest that he fired a shot from his pistol on the night of April 3. He said he shot at a dog and, missing the dog, struck a gate—one of the gates mentioned. Henry Mattern. a fireman at Works, who was at work on the night the shot was fired, said he saw the shot fired and that the shot struck the dog. This was simply a contradiction. The detectives sifted every fact and ev- ery bit of circumstantial evidence and ar- rived at the conclusion that one of the previously acepted facts was wrong. They became convinced that there might be a bullet in the body of Jue Chow. If that were true al] the mystery would dissolve and the identity of the murder- ers would be known. A second examina- tion of the body was ordered. Local Sensations. Those Young Men's Sults and Overcoats the Globe, Seventh and Franklin avenue, are selling at $4.9 and $7.8.

SHE HAD PLEURO-PNEUMONIA. EXPERTS DECLARE DEAD WOMAN ONCE HAD PLEURISY. Officers Conducting the Search Say That There Have Been No Arrests and No Clews That Yielded Information. —— NEW YORK, Oct. 13.—The police are leaving nothing undone in their efforts to unravel the Seventeenth street woman mur- der mystery. Diligent search is now being made for Mrs. Gertrude Billings, the missing wife of George Billings, a saloonkeeper, although Mrs. Billing’s parents said they were sure their daughter was alive and well. The woman murdered had suffered from pleur- isy and it has been discovered that Mrs. Billings had an attack of pleuro-pneumonia about a year ago. Police Capts, Schmitberger and Price worked all last night on the Séventeenth street woman murder mystery, but they re- ported to-day that nothing had been dis- covered. Every clew that has been fol- lowed up so far has led to nothing. The police continue their denials that any ar- rest has been made, having even the re- motest connection with the case. It was alleged that a clew had been found in the house of Mrs. Barbara Damm of West One ‘Hundred and Ninth street. The police searched the house and barn. A number of pieces of red-stained manila paper were found, and there were two old saws with rust on them, and an old worn, dusty and stained pair of trousers. The saws were old and the dust was so thick on them that they could not have heen used in the last six months. The trousers had not been worn more recently than six months ago. The manila paper was of the ofdinary make and the alien said they did not see how they could have anything to do with so recent a murder. Dr. Cyrus Edson, ex-City Health Officer and expert bacteriologist, has drawn these deductions: The upper torso found in the lower bay to-day without ques%on belongs to the oth- er parts of this dismembered body. It con- firms the opinion that the woman was @ ro- bust, healthy person. The joining of the upper and lower torso shows an exceedingly well-shaped body. Ihe waist is small for the size of the woman, and shows unmistakable evidence of tight lacing. The liver is quite character:stic in oy shape of a woman who laced exceeding- y tight. . Without the head it is tmpesaie to form an exact idea of her age. judge now she was between 25 and 35 years old. In a@ general way we may safely make the following deductions, of course using the term “probably” in regard to each: 1. This was a woman 5 feet 4 to 5 feet 6 inches in height, weighing 145 to 155 pounds, and between 25 and 35 years old. 2. She wag a woman who in life was fas- tidious and careful of her person. 8. She was a brunette, not pronounced, having dark chestnut hair, not unusually fine. Her figure was fine, large and well- developed. Her waist was small. 4. Her health was good, but at one time she had a severe attack of = possi- bly accompanied by pneumonia. y She dressed well, or up to the limit af- ed by her means. ar ag iy BB was probably alive on Thursday last.

A steer escaped from the St. Louis Dressed Beef Co.’s plant on King’s high- way at noon Friday. Pollcemen and citi- zens chased it north on King’s highway. At the corner of Delmar avenue James Tatum of 5091 Morgan street, a colored man, was walking on the sidewalk. A bullet from one of the patrolmen’s revolvers struck him in the shoulder. He was treated by Dr. Nifong of 704 North King’s highway. The case is parallel to the one in which Chief Desmond had to pay damages out of his own pocket. The shot came from the revolver of Pa- trolman W. H. Randall of 2272 Chouteau avenue. He says a letter carrier borrowed the weapon to shoot at the steer and after the animal had been killed handed it back to him with the remark that it was empty.

When the Admiral Spread the Mortar He Said “It Is According to My Wish.” NORTHFIELD, Vt,,. Oct. 13.—Admiral Dewey to-day laid th¢cornerstone of Dewey Hall, whieh {s to be & part of Norwich University, the institution in which the Ad- miral received his earliest military train- ing. Admiral Dewey was escorted from his train to the University by the Norwich University Cadets, and the First Regiment of Vermont National Guards. Admiral Dewey spread the mortar, and as the cornerstone was lowered, said: “IT now declare this stone duly and truly laid, and according to my wish.” : Senator-elect Chauncey M. Depew of New York, delivered the address of the day. At the cotclusion of Mr. Depew’s address Admiral Dewey held a reception for a short time. He left this afternoon for Boston, where a public reception will be held. , b f WHAT DEWEY’S SWORD COST. Only $3000 of the $10,000 Voted Was Spent on the Admiral. WASHINGTON, Oct. 13.—Admiral Dew- ey’s sword, voted him by Congress, did not cost $10,000 as popularly supposed. Congress appropriated $10,000 for the pur- chase of a eword for Dewey and bronze medals to be given to every man _ who served in Dewey's fleet at the battle of Ma- nila Bay. The amount expended by the Navy Department on the Dewey sword was $3000. The other §7000 went to pay for the bronze medals. These meda!s were designed by French, the eminent American sculptor, and are very handsome. The total number struck, on which the Secretary of the Navy has received returns from the Bureau of Navigation, which had the matter in charge, was 1823: It is understood that a few additional medals, not yet accounted for by the Bureau of Navigation, have been ordered. It will be seen that the cost of these medals was about $3.75 apiece. The New York firm which designed and made the Dewey sword claims to have lost money on it.. Some of the lesser heroes of the recent war have received handsomer and more costly ewords than that voted Ad- miral Dewey 4 Congress, but the honor that attaches to his sword makes it Iin- valuable in the sight of the Admiral.

CAUSED BY THE DREYFUS TRIAL SCHNEIDER WAS AUSTRIA’S REP- RESENTATIVE AT PARIS. Cuignet, a French Officer, Denounced the Colonel as a Liar During the Proceedings of the Court- Martial at Rennes. LONDON, Oct. 13.—A dispatch from Paris says that a representative of the Intran- sigeant, M. Rochefort’s paper, asserts that, while seeing a friend off on the Orient Ex- press last evening, he observed Col. Schnei- der, former military attache of the Austro- Hungarian Embassy in Paris, being carried to the train, accompanied by physicians and with blood flowing from a wound in his side. Mr. Schneider had recently returned from Switzerland, when, it is said, he fought a duel with (Capt. Culgnet on account of his evidence regarding Schneider before the Rennes court-martial. Capt. Cuignet in the course of his evi- dence at Rennes during the second trial of Dreyfus, referred to a dispatch of Col. Schneider, denouncing as a forgery a letter purporting to have been written by him, in which he was represented as alluding to efforts made by the German and Italian military attaches to conceal their relations with Dreyfus. his allegation of forgery, Capt. Cuignet ridiculed, declaring that if Col. Schneider persisted in his attitude, the French General Staff was in a position to prove beyond dispute the authenticity of the letter which Schneider had repudiated. He then added: ‘The author of the letter is, I know, of a very inferior position as compared with rhis friends (Schwartzkoppen and Paniz- zardi). Perhaps he cannot do otherwise than deny this. But he must know that his letter is not the only one of his com- munications now in our hands.” It’s Not Our Fault If you pay $4.00 for Boys’ Suits and Over- coats elsewhere when you can buy the same at $2.9 at the Globe, Seventh and Franklin avenue. THRASHED HIM IN COURT Mrs. Patrick Finn Gave Her Husband a Pummeling and Chased Him Three Blocks. Mrs. Patrick Finn demonstrated her fistic ability Friday afternoon, when the case against her husband, whom she charges with abandoning her, was con- tinued tn Judge Klein's court. After roundly scoring the court officials, whom she claimed were trying to have her husband liberated, Mrs. Finn called Pat to one side and asked him if he didn’t re- gret leaving her. No one heard the answer, but Pat had scarcely spoken when Mrs. Finn struck him in the jaw. Then she grabbed him around the shoulder and began pummeling him in the neck. He broke away and ran into the street. Mrs. Finn chased him for three blocks. The fugitive distanced her and Mrs. Finn returned to the our Courts and blandly remarked, “That's the way all wives should treat contrary husbands.” A Big Wax Doll Free. “I'm Nothing But a Big Wax Doll,” a catchy song, composed by Malicolm Wil- Hams. the great St. Louis favorite, will be folded with each copy of next, Sunday's Post-Dispatch free: BULGARIAN CABINET.

SPEECHES ON THE STREETS. House to House Canvass, the Dissem- ination of Tracts and Other Work to Be Done Here, Twenty-four Mormon missionaries ar- rived in St. Louis Thursday night and at once prepared plans for an active winter's campaign. The “laborers,” as they are designated, come to this city from other fields of work, most of them having been prose- lyting in Southern Illinois and the adjacent territory. They are under the direction of Klder Peter James Sanders, who has been in charge of similar work in Chicago. Heretofore there have been but three or four missionaries in St. Louls. Concludin that the city would prove a prolific field, the church, according to Elder Sanders, issued orders to make it a rendezvous of the near-by workers, who are to devote their entire attention to St. Louis alone until further notice. A house-to-house canvass has been be- gun by the elders, who visit two together. When the opportunity permits they speak to those with whom they come in contact, otherwise they lecve tracts. Public meet- ings will also be held on the streets and later a hall will be engaged and regular — given. e present headquarters of the band is at 1502 Washington avenue. Here the elders were gathered Friday morning, re- ceiving final instructions praparatory to beginning the day’s work. The men are Stalwart specimens of what the Westerner is commonly supposed to be, neatly dressed in ordinary street clothes and all of rather more than average intelligence. All avoca.- tions of life are to be found among them, which they follow when not engaged on religious duties. They are not especially prepared for this work, so Elder Sanders explained, but are selected for mission work President Snow and asigned to duty in every portion of the world. Their usual term of duty lasts two years, when they are relieved and others take their places. ‘While on such work they must be self-supporting. This does not mean they are allowed to work at wage- earning labor or to solicit subscriptions. Both are prohibited: the first because they are supposed to devote their whole energy to their proselyting,. and the second be- cause it Is not countenanced by the church, Out of the savings they have amassed by their daily pursuits, previous to their as- signments, they must sustain themselves and their families who are left at home. Elder P. J. Sanders, in speaking of the work to the Post-Dispatch, said: “ t seems to be the existing impression that a Mor- mon is a monster, a thing to be abhorred whose very touch is contamination. He Its in nowlse different from his fellow man save that perhaps the spirit of relj lon is more deeply rooted in his bosom than is generally found to be the case. ‘It is not our intention to force our doc- trine upon our hearers. We fully discharge the duty imposed upon us by the church when we present the Gospel, as we under- stand it to them. It Its theirs to accept or reject, and I rejoice to say many accept.” The following compose the party: Elder Peter James Sanders, president, late Murray, Utah, but later of Chicago: Harmon, first counselor; G.

LAURE BOUVIER REGRETTED BY MANY. A WOMAN OF GREAT CHARM. For Fifty Years She Lived and Was Loved and Honored in St. Louis. The death of Mys. Laure Bouvier Thurs- day afternoon closed a most remarkable career. Mrs. Bouvier died at the resi- dence of her daughter, Mrs. John C. Ewald, at $16 Maryville avenue. For half a century she was a favorite meinber of French society in St. Louls and until three nronths ago an active member as weil. Few St. Louis Catholic families are better known or more sincerely ioved than hers. Mrs. Bouvier was 8 years old at the time of her death. She was a typical grande dame of the old school of French Creole type, dignified and cvurteous, delicsously feminine, yet quietly forceful, a woman of character and poise. Mrs. Bouvier came to St. Louis as a refugee from perll only to confront one more deadly and horrifying, She was born and reared in the beautiful istand of Guadaloupe, in the West Indies, where her father was a wealthy planter and slave owner. Mrs. Bouvier married early, her husband being of wealth scarcely lesa than that of her father. The riches of the Bouvier family was swept away by a revolution, the outcome of which was the emancipation of all the slaves on the island, The Bouviers, like many others who had opposed the revolution, were forced to flee from the West Indies. They came to New Orleans and thence by steamboat to St. Louis. With the party was also Auguste Gibert and his family of six children. The Bouviers were Alphonse Bouvier, Mrs. Bou- Vier. their five children and Mr. Bouvier’s brother. On their arrival at St. Louis the party of refugees found the entire front in. ashes, On mounting the — te levee they found great bonfires of pitc burning in all of the principal streets They were horrified to learn that cholera was raging in the city and that the houses arong the river front ‘had been burned to check its spread, and the pitch fires were another of the many disinfectant meas- ures used {in vain to stamp out the disease, The Bouvier and Gibert families rented a house in Walsh’s row, owned by the father of Julius 'Walsh, on -Broadway between Cerre and Poplar streets. The house ad- joined the one in which Eugene Field was afterwards born, Within three weeks after they moved into the house Mr. Gibert and his six chil- dren died of cholera. Of the Bouvier fam- ily the father, his brother and three of the children contracted the lise .se, They ail recovered, but - Mr. Bouvier’s mind was: sad- ly affected. He had been a sugar grower in Guada- loupe and he naturally turned ‘to that in- dustry here.. He was the originator of the plan to operate a refinery here, which later resulted in the building of the immense Belcher Sugar Refinery, at Second and Biddle streets. Of the Bouvier children there are now living Mrs. J. C. Ewald, widow of a once wealthy grain: merchant, and the three sons, Alfred, Gabriel and Clement. Of Mrs. Bouvier’s grandchildren there are living in St. Louis Lawrence, Mark, Raymond and Sidney Bouvier, all architects. These four will act es pallbearers at the funeral Saturday. Another grandson, Maurice Bouvier, is a member of the firm of W. R. Grace & Co., general exporters in Han- over Square, New York. Mrs. Bouvier was a life-lone friend of Rev. Charles Charropin, 8S. J.. pf St. Louis University, whose family also fled from Guadaloupe. Her last illness began five months ago.

He kept a large confectionery store and was thought to be prospering, but it has developed that he was compelled to borrow money to maintain his business. The presumption at Upper Alton Its that he feared to face hts creditors, wnom he could not repay. Mrs. Wahl, after paying all the debts she could, went to her mother’s, at Greenfield, Ill., Thursday night, there to await news of her missing husband.

THEY DENOUNCED ENGLAND. Enthusiastic Speeches by Dr. Preeto- Trius, Congressman Clark and O’Neill Ryan. Whereas, Great Britain has invaded the Trans- vaal Republic with armed troops, in violation of the rights of the people, and with a view to pro- voking hostilities for the purpuse of destroying the republic and making the Transvual subject to British domination; and Whereas, We believe that the English Gov- ernment is intluenced in its wicked conduct solely by greed for gold and lust for land, re- gardiess ef the lives and liberties of the men and wemen of the republic; and we further be- lieve that the pcople of these United States Should, and do, coudemu any attempt at the sub- version of a republican form of government in any part of the world Resolved, That we, citizens of States aud Union solemnly protest war precipitated by England upon the Boers; that we denounce it as the capital political crime againet the civilization and Christianity of ‘these closing years of the nineteenth cen- tury; that we call upon our countryment every- where throughout this Union to give expression to thelr indignatioa, that England may know the consensus of American public opinion is aguiust her and with the South African Kepublic. Resolve further, That we send hearty greet- ing to Paul Kruger and the Dutch patriots, and luvoke the blessing of God upon their efforts in defense of their native land. Resolved further, That the attitude of Great Britain tn this affair makes clear her hostility to republics, and moekes it evident that her pre- tended friendship for this nation was but in- tended to secure our silence while she tobbed the Dutch, and gives additional force to the reasens why there should be no political alliance in furm or substance between this country and Great Britain. There can be no union between the eagle and the vulture. the United uzainst the These are the resolutions adopted by the citizens’ mass meeting at the Fourteenth Street Theater Thursday night. The meeting was ali that its promoters desired. The attendante was large and the audience idemonstrative in their enthusi- asm. Deafening applause greeted every speaker and the bitter arraignments of England's policy in the Transvaal were given hearty cheers. There could be no doubt of the sentiment of the crowd. They had come together to strike a blow in the moral support of the Boer Republic and the Orange Free State:in their war with England and they went about it with vigor. The meeting was held under the auspices of the Irish Nationalists. Dr. homas O’Rielly presided. On the platform with him were seated the speakers of the even- ing and other prominent citizens. All the seats on the lower floors were taken and the balcony and gallery were comfortably filled. Dr. O’Rielly was introduced by Jeremiah Sheehan. His remarks were confined to a statement of the purpose of the mesting. He announced Dr. Preetorius as the first s>eaker. Dr. Preetorius said all liberty-loving peo- ples should pray that victory should fall to the oppressed Boers. He denounced England’s Transvaal policy as criminal ag- gressiveness and declared she was trying to do the same thing in South Africa that she tried to do in America many years ago. He said he hoped the result would be the same. “When my kinamen by name and blood, said Dr. Pretovious, “established the Af- rican city of Pretoria, they did it with the same liberty-loving spirit that has charac- terized the Preetorius family throughout the world, Readers of classics will remem- ber there was once a. ‘Preetorian Guard, who were the buiwark of the Roman Em- peror, but if they were progenitors of mine I can say that when their term of service expired they refused to re-enlist, and from that day until now not one of the family has ever ‘been tainted with imperialism. O'Neill Ryan was the next speaker. He humorously welcomed Dr. Preetorius to ‘*HHibernian ranks.” He said the press gen- erally was not now representing the senti- ment of the American people, except in a few notable instances, among them the 8t. Louis Post-Dispatch. He thought the American people were heart and soul with the Dutch Republic, as with every people everywhere who were engaged in a strug- gle for liberty. Mr. Ryan said that Eng- land’s course in the Transvaal was with- out justice,and was prompted by her lust for land and greed for gold. He declared that America owed England nothing, as she was not our friend in the war with Spain until Dewey demonstrated that he was greater than Nelson. Then, he said, she discovered her opportunity and began to shout that we were all of the same stock. He declared he believed the blow in the Transvaal marked the beginning of the disintegration of the British Empire. The band played ‘The Wearing of the Green,”’ after which Con Maloney read the resolutions that were adopted unani- mously. Congressman Champ Clark of Bowlin Green, Mo., was introduced. He declar against an alliance with England and said his sympathies were with her foes. Charles F. Krone, Moses C. Wetmore and Harry M. Hill followed with brief speeches, after which the meeting ad- journed. All the speakers refrained from talking polftics. The resolutions adopted by the meeting will be printed and scattered throughout the United States and Ireland as express- ing the sentiment of St. Louis. Copies will also be sent to President Kruger and his Cabinet.

The Society’s Upbuilding Under His Guidance—Mr. John W. Dick Se- lected as His Successor. After serving for 2 years as president of the Caledonian Society of St. Louis, Mr. Dugald Crawford resigned that office in a gracefully worded letter which was read with regret by the members who attended the meeting of the society Thursday night. While he was at the head of the society he gave it the same inteiligent attention, the giving of which to his private affaire has made him a prominent figure in the mercantile and finanec'al world. The soci- ety's annual banquet has always been one of the distinct successes of the fall sea- ¢on in St. Louis. Not only has Mr. Craw- ford been a tower of pecuniary strength to the organization, but his shrewd Scotch hu- mor and natural eloquence have made his contributions to the addresses at the ban- quets among the most enjoyable features of those occasions. The society will not lose this berefit of Mr. Crawfon#ise con- nection wih it, however, as ha will be made honorary pres.dent of the society as soon as the nece@sary changes in the ‘era of the organization can be made. Mr. Crawford stated fn his letter resign- ing the place of president that the recent accident, in which the bones of one of his feet were broken, made it impossible for him to get about and give the attention to the office that he thought it deserved. The demands of h's large business require al- mcst all of nis time, also, and he is not thé kind of man to do anything in a perfunc- tory manner. Every member present at the meeting ex- pressed regret at Mr. Crawford’s deg = tlon and the hope that he would soon fully recover from the effects of the accident that deprived them of a president so emi- nently satisfactory. It was then suggested that the by-laws of the society be changed so that Mr. Crawford could be elected honorary presi- dent. This was agreed to with unanimous enthusiasm and the proper steps to carry out the plan were taken at once. Under the rules the subject has to remain in abey- ance three months before final action on it can be taken. John W. Dick, who had served as Vice- President for many years, was elected President; James Wilson was elected Vice- ‘President; N. Walter (Macintyre was elect- ed Recording Secretary, Henry Nairne Financial Secretary, James Gordon Treas- urer, ‘Dr. ; . MoCandless hysician, James M. Sutherlan chaplain and John Al- lan, James Gordon and Henry Nairne coun- cilmen. Committees were appvinted to make ar- rangements for the annual banquet of the society, which will be given on Noy. 29. St. Andrew’s Day, the anniversary of Scot- land’s patron saint, falls this year on Thanksgiving Day, and the banquet will be given on bagg Dfegs Eve. Neil Stewart, William Milne, A. Murray and W. R. Wilson were admitted to mem- bership in the society. After the dry business of the meeting had been transacted, there were refreshments, and while hot scotch and cigars were be- ing enjoyed Dr. ‘McCandless talked in an entertaining way of his recent visit to Scotland. A recital from ‘‘The Lady of the Lake” was given by ‘William Murdoch, brother of the distinguished James Murdoch. The meeting closed with the singing of “Auld Lang Syne.” MONTE CARLO RAIDED —_— “BILL” TIPTON’S BUSY DAY AT MADISON, ILL. “Law and Order Bill’ Tipton had his day at Madison, Ill., Thursday, and, as a result, the poolroom there, known to Illinois and Missouri gamesters as “Little Monte Carlo,”’ is a complete wreck. All its windows and doors are broken and its paraphernalia has been confiscated. It would not look more desolate if a Kansas cyclone had struck it. The story of how Tipton and 15 deter- mined farmers, all specially sworn in as deputy constables, raided the place and ar- rested the principals and their assistants, was told in the late editions of Thursday’s Post-Dispatch. The raid was made at the request of many of the leading citizens of Madison County, who had decided to make a vigor- ous war against gambling in Madison. But who would lead the fight? They turned to Tipton. He demurred at first on the ground that he was a citizen of St. Clair County and did not care to interfere in Madison County affairs. But he yielded when as- sured that the fight on Madison gambling concerned his own county as much as Mad- ison. He told the delegation who called on him to leave the details with him. He went to Collinsville Thursday morn- ing and procured warrants against the op- erators of the poolrooms. Then he selected 15 men as assistants and had them depu- tized. They drove to Madison and quietly gained entrance to the operating room. When the cashing in of checks began Tip- ton gave the signal. The habitues under- stood and made a rush to get away. They were allowed to go. Only the principais were wanted, and, when they were secured, the raid was at an end. Among the arrests were Louls Cella and Sam Adler of St. uis. The prisoners were taken to Collinsville. where they gave bond and will have a hear- ing later. This is the first raid that has been made on the Madison gambling house since it was established by Cella and Tom Walsh five years ago. Madison citizens say it marks the end of poolroom opera- tlons there. VINDICATION OF A BULL PUP Chief Clerk Ricker’s Dog Amply Sus- tained in Its Good Character by Prominent Citizens. A jury of 12 good men and true in the Circu't Court at Clayton decided Thurs- day that Battle Ax, the bull pup owned and cherished by Charles G. Ricker, chief clerk of the Subtreasury, waé not a desper- ate, dangerous and vicious animal, as charged by Daniel Casey in his suit against Mr. Ricker for $6000 damages growing out of the circumstance that Battle Ax, aided and abetted by a Great Dane, caused Ca- sev to fall and break his leg. Many of the creme de la creme of Kirk- wood, where Battle Ax moves and haz his being, assembled in court to bear witness to hie good character. It was the consensus of opinion that Battle Ax was a model of ropriety and amiability. True, he had a orbidding countenance, Dut his heart was in the right place. Mrs. Davis and Mrs. Jacobs, who live near Mr. Ricker’s home, and have had ample opportunity to study the character of’ Battle Ax, spoke of him in terms of Warmest praise. They sa'd he played with the children and had never a fault unless it was an excess of affablility, which some- times led him to be rather more familiar than was agreeable, particularly on muddy days, when his paws were apt to play havoc with the clothing of persons he fa- vored with his attentions. As for biting any one—such an idea never seemed to enter the corrugated head of Battle Ax. Mr. Marehall of the Th.rd Nationa] Bank ’Tadded his testimony to the cause of the pup, and Alonzo Hudgins, the colored cook at the Ricker home, was surprised and amused that any one should ever ques- tion the peaceable nature of the beast. Judge Hirzel ruled that it devolved on the plaintiff to establish the bad character of the dog, and the jury brought a verdict | tor the defgnse, after ght in brief deifberation.

IT WAS VOTED A SUCCESS. Music, Ice Cream, Cake and a “‘General Good Time” at the Fashion- able Synagogue. The congregation of Temple Israel, at Twenty-eighth and Pine streets, made a new departure Thursday evening. A church ‘‘sociable’’ was given, the first ever permitted by a Jewish organization of this city. | The object of the move, as explained by Dr. Leon Harrison, was to make the syna- gogue what the church should be—a social center, where an opportunity is afforded for the better acquaintanceship of the mcmbers, and the promotion of congrega- tional spirit, resulting in increased interest in the workings of the church. The auditorium was well filled when the programme was opened, and not until 10:30, when the lights went out, did the people leave, unanimous in the opinion that the affair, a decided novelty, had been thor- oughly delightful. A easing programme was rendered in the Temple, after which the attendants onores sociability with ice cream and cake in the chapel.

By the opening of navigation next spring we hope to be able to ship our ore In our own vessels, and consequently advanced rates will not be to our detriment. In fact, the higher the regular lines make their rates the greater advantage there will be to mining compa- nies owning their own vessels. I am not in a position to say so positively, but I have understood that the contracts for the build- ing of a fleet of lake vessels will be com- pleted long before there may arise any ur- gent need of their use.” The ore carrying vessels will be built in ‘leveland, and they are to be of steel con- struction.

Cordial invitations will be sent him by the Mayor and the business organizations of St. Louls. But when Admiral Dewey accepts the invitation the rep- resentative men of St: Louis will have a duty to perform. They must see that the great Admiral is not made the central figure of an exhibition of snobbery nor the chief attraction for a scheme of greedy speculation. Not only is the Admiral @ superb naval officer and a war hero, but he is a simple, sourteous, warm-hearted gentleman who loves the people, and it would never do to humiliate him on the occasion of ils St. Louis visit. by making him the instrument of snobbish ‘anity or corporate greed. The prime condition to the proper reception of Admiral ewey is the relegation of the asses who mismanaged the ashville reception to the extreme background. Neither the erchants’ Exchange nor St. Louis can stand another exhi- ion of asininity in the handling of distinguished visitors. > La rT we ifty thousand a year is good pay for the speeches Mr. Mc- ley has made since he became President. » if OPPORTUNITY FOR HOME CAPITAL. The annual report of the State Mine Inspector states that no #8 than $10,060,000 of outside capital has been invested in Aissouri zinc and lead mines within the year closing June 30, 1898. The State Inspector calls attention to the wonderfully rapid growth of the industry, its use of improved methods and dts sure profits. i Missourians should not allow all the “good things’ in the shape of minerul riches to get into the hands of enterprising outsiders. Missouri capital and Missouri labor should reap the benefit of the natural resources of the State. From indicaiivns and the testimony of mines now worked, there can be litt'e doubt that nearly the entire State of Mis- _gouri is underlaid with valuable minerals. The capital put into developing this wealth up to the present time is but an opening wedge. There igs still plenty of opportunity for home capitalists to go in and increase the State’s productiveness. Before the opening of the World's Fair, Missouri ought to be able to show that her own citizens are fully alive to the surpassing importance of her mineral treasures, (> >> i id wr — “Dropping in at the Exposttion” will be impossible next week, and only possible to-day and to-morrow. eeiedllp lieianeiiliciliiniamindin THE PICTURESQUE OF PAST AND FUTURE, The old fashioned blacksmith was a picturesque feature of old fashioned civilization, but machinery has supplanted him and electricity has eliminated him.. The Belgian whose invention is described in the Sunday Post-Dispatch is doing for the blacksmith what other geniuses have done for other old time craftsmen. More and more the machine takes the place of human muscle and the work once laboriously accomplished by the man is now done easily and Bpeedily by steam and electricity. This is true economy. The man’s wits are set free to de- velop in other directions. For ages the mind has been buried in matter, working out material problems, conquering nature and bringing the world into order. This work approaches tompletion, and in future human intelligence will be turned more to other and less material labors. The old craftsman was picturesque—by retrospect, at any rate. But the new order will make itself picturesque. It can- not be otherwise while men love what is beautiful and try to embody it in pleasing forms. uhhh i i It is “liberty or death” with the Transvaal Dutch, and they @re an obstinate people, familiar with firearms. > > Le i te al MORALS OF TRUSTS. Trust morals are well illustrated by the doings of the Leather Trust. Several tudenendent Massachusetts manufacturers went into the combine, voluntarily or upon compulsion, but stipulated that they should be retained at the head of their respective plants. NO s:oner is the deal closed, however, than several of these men fie retired, “in the interest of economy,” and one super- intenuent or manager assumes charge of their plants. Others __ @¥e Blut up altogether, the former proprietors being excluded from the management of the combine and their employes dis- 4 ged by wholesale. pi. Fig the way of the trust, however. ee It is an organization designed to make money, and men are of no consequence in the losophy of monopoly. If there is money in good faith, keep faith. If there isn’t—what is good faith? Only a pentement—we are practical men. Cold, concrete cash is what we ste after. ; _ $6 féuson the monopolists. So they act. Is it any wonder the anti-trust feeling is growing in strength and bitterness? 2 i , _ -_— = Commutation Tickets on Hamburg Street Railways.—Thoe * commutation system on the street car system of Hamburg, Gertnany, enables a passenger to use one line both ways, as Many trips a day as he pleases, for $19.04 a year. Reckoning 813 workdays a year, a St. Louis passenger making two trips @ day, to and from work, must pay $31.30. Here is a saving of at least $12.26 a year in favor of the Hamburg passenger. The reason is that the city of Hamburg has fixed the rates tn the {nterest. of pussengers and company alike.

Not morally or finan- Claily, but geologically. It is on the decline, on a toboggan slide. Churches and other public buildings are cracking open aa they move and costly residences are ruined by this singu- lar movement toward a lower level. But Butte, Montana, is not the only city that is going down hill. There are others. St. Louis, for instance. St. Louis ts going down hill. Not geologically or financially, and per- haps not morally, but politically. /The City Hall is badly cracked, the streets are, in many districts, practically ruined by this singular and unaccountable decline. They do say, _ however, that we are not declining, but that we have declined. ” A ‘We are not falling. We have fallen. We are at the bottom and can go no further. There is hope in that. If we are at the bottom we can’t go any lower. All the politicians in the City Hall can’t carry us lower than the bottom. We sympathize with Butte, Montana, tn her geological mis- fortune. There is a fellow-feeling here which makes us won- drous kind. Butte and St. Louis are going down, or have gone down, together. a. -~w “The republics are determined that if they must belong to England a price will have to be paid which will stagger humanity,” says President Kruger to the World and Post- Dispatch. And there can be no doubt that the republics have the sympathy of the whole civilized world outside of Great Britain, and even there they have thousands of sym- pathizers. = = '_- - INFORMATION OR MISINFORMATION. It has been published broadcast over the country that the Philippine war is the work of one tribe only—the Tagals—the rest of the inhabitants being friendly to the Americans. This is important if true, but unfortunately Mr. Griggs, the At- torM@y-General, gave the statement numerical definition the other day. He said that the one tribe constituted only 1 per cent of the inhabitants. This is tangible. It is an assertion easily examined with the aid of a primer of arithmetic. The population of the Philippines is, according to the high- est estimate, 10,000,000. One per cent is 100,000. Counting one fighter for every five persons, Aguinaldo’s army amounts to 20,000. This, then, is the size of the insurrection which Gen. Otis has been about to crush for the past six months. Morevver, an army of 60,000 men, is being recruited to help him out. Is it true that one Filipino can whip three Ameri- cans, or that three Americans are needed to whip one Filipino? This is the logic of the one tribe 1 per cent argument. It would be interesting to know just how much of the infor- mation we get about the Philippines through official chan- nels is misinformation, Alger’s friends are furious at this extract from Secretary Root’s remarks in Peoria: “I have no fear, no question what- ever, that in the days an nights that the Secretary of War is giving to seeing to it, the army of the United States is the best fcd, best equipped and best armed army the world has ever seen.” This is taken as an implication that Mr. Root’s predecessor did not feed well or arm well the forces of the United States. It is held that Mr. Root should have adver- tised himself without refiecting upon Gen. Alger. The fact that fine dogs are dying of consumption from eating meat and drinking milk, and that the poor cur dogs, who get little meat and no milk, are healthy, may well be considered by meat-eating and milk-drinking communities. The right kind cf meat and the right kind of milk are as necessary to human beings as to dogs. ha, Lp. Lip The President is expressing his apprehension that the busi- ness pendulum, which has swung:so far in the right direction, may soon swing the other way. But so long as he and Mr. Hanna can control American crops and foreign famines and apply the stimulant of war to our productions, why should Mr. McKinley be apprehensive? ad —_—-— ae New York is to have a tunnel street railway, and it will be constructed to accommodate pipes and electric wires for various purposes.

There may still be office-seeking Guiteaus, notwithstanding the Presi- dent’s generosity in knocking out civil service reform for the benefit of his party. Our great Admiral says that unless the Filipino leaders are routed within six months the war may not end for six years, and perhaps not for sixty. The magnitude of the Administra- tion’s blundering is made very clear in this declaration of Admiral Dewey. a «+ a Congressional appropriations are greatly needed for river and harbor improvement, but with our war expansion ex- penses we cannot expect to expand much at home.

A gang of highway robbers that had terrorized Liverpool, some of whom he had himself seen at work, came before Justice Day for sentence ten years ago. “I am not going to give you }men long terms of imprisonment,” he said, “but when you get in you get twenty lashes of the cat, when you have been in nine months you get twenty lashes of the cat, and before you come out you get twenty lashes of the cat. And then you can show them to your friends."’ EVOLUTION WESTWARD. “Anything new since I was here?” quired the political tourist. “Wal, yes, stranger,’’ drawled Amber Pete, ‘‘the boys that used to car horse- eo are now carrying horseless pis- ols.” WHAT SHALL THE _--— -——--- in- POOR GIRL DOP ‘Oh, Minna, I am in despair!

HARRIET H UBBARD AYER a | & Written for the Post-Dispatch. 'e IF TY years ago, in our grandmother's time, women were ethereal and doll- like creatures, who reclined on couches and passed their days in a semi- invalidism that was considered particularly fascinating. But with the wholesome overthrow of paper-soled slippers and low-necked mus- lins for winter wear there came a tardy acknowledgment that real physical exercise is positively necessary to every healthy, happy life, irrespective of sex. The real girl of to-day ‘thas learned to walk and ride, to hunt and fish, to do tennis and golf and to excel in every out-of-door diversion. Gymnastics and physical culture are a part of every girl’s school training and the result is seen in the ime ge) healthy young women one meets every day and every- where. I beHeve in the out-of-door girl. The athletic girl has that superb expression of joyous life and youthful vigor that makes m4 feel proud of the race that produced er. But the tendency to overdo in athletics calls for especial attention just at this mo- ment, because, in our American fashion, we have gone beyond the health-giving nower of physical culture and crossed the boundaries of over-exercise. Every day I see perhaps half a dozen girls who have overdone athletics. They are usually young women who ‘eo in,’ as they term it, for one particular eport. Take, for example, the bicycle girl. There is no question that cycHng has been a boon to thousands of our sex. It has caused women to forget their aches ew, has Warns Post-Dispatch Lady Readers of the Danger of Overdoing Athletics. and pains, both real and imaginary. It has made a companion for her hus- band of many a wife who, until she learned to ride and go on cycling trips with him, used to put in her time having hysterics because she was left alone while he was away enjoying himself. But ‘the apectacle of a haggard, round- shouldered, hollow-cheeked woman in a bi- cycle costume covered with century med- als, the cca presented by the dead, Weary, chest-contracted woman scorcher and the knowledge that here and there and everywhere women are running the risk of a permanent breakdown in health and a long .invalidism and premature death by overstrain from cycling, is not so unusual that it can be passed by without comment, As in wee eo in golf, tennis, punt- ing or basket ball—each sport is excel- lent, taken judiciously. But when a woman attempts to make a record, when she gives up her life to the pursuit of any one sport or exercise, she first of all risks her health, which is her most precious possession, Nevt, and very near her health portance, she loses her femininity. Physical exercise overdone certainly does detract from the greatest, most potent charm of our sex—womanliness. No woman can be the charming, sympa- thetic, useful, lovable creature she was in- tended to be whose time is passed getting ready for, or in the active effort over, or recuperating from an attempt to break the record in any line of athletic sports. Let us ‘have exercise, and plenty of it— but don’t let us run into the error of over- training. We shall dearly pay for our folly when nature’s day of reckoning comes. Two hours each day devoted to sport !s all that any woman should permit herself. HARRINT HUBBARD AYER. in im- eee ee ONE NE a a pr ge pl pi gti plighige ehou!d a great Hamilton knew how a& man conduct himself. This was factor in his favor. When the con- servative people of (Waxton suddenly found such a man as this in their midst they received him with open arms. In time it became no uncommon occur- rence to speak of Hamilton as the “model man.” He grew accustomed to this d@stinc- tion, and did everything in his power to hold the tifle the people of the village had bestowed upon him. He became a veritable encyclopedia in af- fairs of love. He was consulted by every one on every phase of the malady. No young man of the town thought it any- thing to lay bare his heart to Hamilton. Hamilton sat writing one evening when Appleby, “the serious man,” was an- nounced. “I say, Ham, I want to see you about something,” were his words on en- tering the room, “Well, well, old fellow,” began Hamilton, jokingly, ‘i hope youw havn't got into it, too, 1 thought you were fireproof.”’ -“T thought so, too, Ham; but a fellow never can tell. Why, do you know, I’m actually losing my appetite.”’ “You must have advanced quite far,” said Hamilton. ‘“‘How long has this been going on?’ “Don't ask me,” replied Appleby. ‘All I want is your advice. Do you think I had better.go on, or let the matter drop?’ ‘What's to cause you to let the matter drop?’’ asked Hamilton, seating himself more erect in his chair. _ third party,” ‘was Appleby’s brief re- ply. “And what does she think of him?’ “She says she does not care for him; says she never did.” ‘“‘Dor’t you believe her, Ap?’’ asked Ham- ilton, earnestly. “When I am with her.” began Appleby, his voice faltering, "I believe every word she says. It never occurs to me that she could utter anything but the golden truth. But when I am away from her I think of what has transpired, and I see piainer—I think deeper.’’ “Let the girl alone,” interrupted Hamil- n ton. ° At this sudden outburst Appleby started. He met Hamilton's penetrating gaze and read in it the fact that Hamilton meant what he said. Appleby was silent. Hamil- ton’s advice was not what he expected, He did not like it. “But, Ham,” said he at length, “do you know what you are asking? It is impos- sible. The girl is Hortense Randall.” Hamilton moved to the window and stood azing into the light thoroughfare below, is heart beating strangely at what he had heard. * * * a * * “By jove,’ began Reginald Craven, “do rou Calten I could hardly wait to tel! you. tm in love.

When the coming of the wedding arriv in the midst of all that was beautiful costly, Hortense Randall was a picture ag she stood before the mirror for a final look From the top of her head, where nestled the fragrant orange blossoms, to the f presen § incased in duintiest slippers, seem to be a shimmering haze. Two hours later Hortense and her hus- band were seated in a car. A gay chat- tering was going on In the car, ripples of laughter intermingling. “Well, old fellow, this is a surpris® Where are you bound for? What you been doing with yourself lately?” When Hortense raised her eyes she be held a stranger at her husband’s side. The good-natured face was wreathed with smiles and the hand he extended met that of Hortense’s husband in a hearty gTraap. “I've been getting married, . More- land, this is my wife.” ‘Moreland’s eyes met those of Hortense for an instant, and then in his pleasing way he said, “Accept my good en, Mrs. Hamilton. I congratulate you, Ham.

You must consider me a reporter of the Post-Dispatch for the time being. This is too good to be lost. A newspaper reporter recently waited on a member of “Our Ex- change,’’ who distinguished himself on the occasion of the Nashville reception. The reporter wished him to sign a statement concerning an invitation to Admiral Dewey to visit St. Louis. The invitation designated the Admiral as the ‘“‘Hero of Manila.’’ The distinguished citizen asked to have the phrase, ‘‘Hero of Manila,’ stricken out. He did not wish to ‘“‘compromise him- self."

Sharp, ee oe------ ALTON'S BUSINESS SURPRISE| and Large Amounts Due Em- | ployes for Back Wages. | The failure of the H. W. Chamberlain | drug store at Alton is reported to be one of | the greatest surprises to the business public | of that city in late years. The Store and its goods has been attached for debt. Most of the debts are for wages owing to the employes. Phil Heck, the prescription clerk, has led a claim of $2700 against Chamberlain for back wages, and judgment has been confessed. With the claime of the other employes, the amount of wages due seems to be about $2998. The liabilities are esti- mated to be about $4200, and the assets are Valued at something over 0. Mr. Chamberlain is given 10 days In which to settle the debts, and if settlement has not been attended to by that time, the sheriff will sell the contents of the store to the highest bidder. The business reverses of Mr. Chamberlain are regretted by the buainess people of Aiton. He has been one of the foremost merchants of the city for the past # years, and all business relations with him have been: pleasant. MORE MONEY FOR CHARITIES.

MARKETS BY TELEGRAPH. CHICAGO, Oct. 18.—Indifferent cables and bear- ish statistics, ineluding heavy Argentine sehip- ments, made wheat weak to-day. Trade waa extremely dull, and the market sagged off slowly until put price was reached, when buying against those privileges and scattered covering caused a feeble rally. December opened a shade lower s 72\4@7T2%c, declining to 72%e, and advanced to “u72%e. Chicago received 192 cars, 3 of which b ed contract. Minneapolis and Duluth got 1104 April and eat eats, compared with 1244 for the same day last year. Argentine shipments for the week were heavy, amounting to 1,240,000 bu, which makes ee total exported from that country since Jan. 1, 52,000,000 bu, an increase of 20,258,000 bu over the same period a year ago. Corn ruled active and strong. The crowd started out on the selijng side, but seon switched around, owing to an urgent cash demand, both here and at the seaboard. Higher cables and moderate re- celpts. G&S cars were also a strengthening in- fluence.
