HE MAY YET MAKE A CONTEST. INTIMATES AS MUCH IN AN IN- TERVIEW. én His Whole Demeanor Indicates That xie Is Laboring Under an In- tense Strain of Suppressed Emotion. Special te the Post-Dispatch. “ NPW YORK, Oct. 28.—There is a strong probability that the Vanderbilt will may be contested. If done it will be by young Cornelius. He arrived at his home to-night from a dinner party which he had been attending with his wife. He received a Post-Dis- patch reporter, and to him repeated the statement that he had made the night be- fore. “I want to say; and I want the people to understand,’ said Mr. Vander- bilt, in reply to the reporter’s first ques- tion, “that the agreement by which I re- ceived $6,000,000 from my father’s estate is not a gift. I want the public to under- stand this. He was very nervous when he spoke, “It was made between my brother Al- fred and myself. The matter since then has been in the hands of my attorneys, Carter and Ledyard; they have full charge of my affairs.’’ Mr. Vanderbilt was then asked point blank if there was a possibility of his con- testing his father’s will, He was then Standing in the parlor, with his hands thrust in his trousers pockets and with one foot planted firmly on the seat of a red plush chair. He removed his foot from the chair, took his hands from his pock- ets, scratched his ‘head, looked first at the ceiling and then at the floor, and finally, with a deliberate determination that gave to the word almost the effect of a drawl, he replied: ‘‘Per-haps.”’ After that Mr. Vanderbilt would’say noth- ing more. He begged to be excused, and walked toward the stairway leading to his apartments. All other questions he de- clined to answer, referring the reporters to his lawyers. During the interview Cornelius repeated several times over the atatement that his brother Alfred had agreed to give him §$10,- 000,000. This he always followed up with = Statement that he could not discuss 6 matter further. Mr. Vanderbilt seemed to be greatly dis- turbed. He looked as if there was some- thing on his mind which he would like to divuige. Several times he walked to the door and then back, with his hands deep in his pockets, gazing steadily at the carpet. When he spoke h's words were uttered with the utmost deliberation, but his whole de- meanor indicated that he was laboring un- der an intense strain of suppressed emotion. He acted like one who wished very much to speak his mind freely, and who refrained from doing so — with great difficulty. His cheeks were hollow and his sunken eyes show clearly the traces of worry. Unlike the stout, healthy young man shown in his printed pictures, he is very thin and care- SHE GOT A HUSBAND But Mrs. Monroe of Bunker Hill, Ill, Is Now Stranded in Rochester, Poorer by $4075. ’? ROCHESTER, N. Y., Oct. 28.—Mrs. Mary Jane Monroe, aged 4, of Bunker Hill, IIL. whose first husband died two years ago, leaving her a farm and $2000, is penniless in this city and claims that she has been robbed of $407% by a New York confidence man. According to her story, which has been verified by the Chief of Police, Mrs. Mon- roe, who was then Mrs. Colthar, about a month ago began through an agency a cor- respondence with James Monroe. A few weeks later they met by appointment in Indianapolis and the same afternoon were married. The following day they started for New York to witness the Dewey Day celebration. Before going the woman placed a $2000 mortgage on the farm and drew $2100 from the bank. The pair arrived in Rochester a few days ago and Monroe, on the plea that he wished to engage in the drug business, prevailed upon his wife to loan him $4075, and started for New York, ostensibly to purchase stock for the store. Monroe has not been seen here since. Wednesday Mrs. Monroe received a letter | | : phe pees dis from him dated New York saying he had been robbed and advising her to return to Bunker Hill. She then lald the case before the Chief of Police, who has taken steps to catch the man. The unfortunate woman has found em- ployment as a nurse.

Re OVERTURES WILL BE REFUSED. BOTH FACTORIES ARE PAYING HANDSOME DIVIDENDS. Indiana Pulp and Paper Co. Has In- structed [ts Representatives to Notify ‘he Trust That It Will Not Sell. MARION, Ind., Oct. 28.—Vigorous West- ern opposition is being planned against the wood pulp trust that is now being organ- ized in New York City. The stockholders of the Indiana Pulp and Paper Co., which is capitalized at $400,000 and has a million-dollar backing, held a meeting here and decided to remain inde- pendent. The company is one of the largest in the West and the trust promoters have been making overtures to it fora long time. A letter was received from them this week, asking the company to send a com- mittee to confer with them in New York next Wednesday, when the trust is to be organized. _Richard Ruddell of Kokomo and Louis Newman and George Stewart of this city will represent the company at the meeting, but they have been instructed to inform the trust that they will not join. lit said on good authority that the Ché- cago Coated Paper Company which is nuw building the largest puip mill in the West at Chicago, has decided to étay outside and it is believed here that many others will follow their example that ‘t will be impos- sible for the combination to get a foot- ing. The business is now being operated under an agreement to sell at one price, which has been productive of immense profits. However, the price of materials used in making pulp has gone up so high ain an advance for the product is expected 6con. Dr. J. H.

CHICAGO, Iil., Oct. 23.—I am a Repub- lican, but above that I am an American, and having received so much honor from the Republican party, it will be clearly my duty to resign my seat in the Senate and give the party an opportunity to elect some one else who is in complete harmony with the organization, if that party is in favor of criminal aggression, imperialism, mili- tarism, high taxes, losses of American lives and eventual death to the Republic and all of the other accompaniments of a desire to govern a nation without its consent. So far as my zeal in the Senate is con- cerned, I did not receive it from a boss. I hold my commission from the people, and rticularly from the rank and file of the epublican party, and I shall wait until they speak, and not listen to any self-ap- pointed syndicate or boss. é WILLIAM E. MASON. NOTE—The above dispatch is in reply pe in- quiry addressed to Senator Mason in regard to the report that he is about to resign his seat in the United States Senate, because of his differences with the eRpublican leaders in regard to the Philippine policy. OLD GLORY OVER A PALACE As a Compliment “to Gen. Harrison Emperor William Raised the Stars and Stripes. BERUIN, Oct. 28.—As an indication of Germany’s desire to cultivate the most friendly relations may be mentioned the delicate compliment paid the United States on the occasion of former President Benja- min Harrison’s visit to the new palace at Potsdam, when the Stars and Stripes were hoisted on the palace. This was the first time they ever floated over a Royal Prus- sian or imperial palace. Another attention was shown Gea. Harrison.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 2% —Twenty-four friends gathered in the Metropolitan Ciub two years ago, next November 27, to tender a farewell banquet to a Commodore, who had been assigned to command of the The Commodore was Dewey. To-night 2 of the same friends gathered in the Metropolitan Club to honor the Ad- miral. The banquet was an exact duplicate of the first in every particular, except for the absence of four men. The dinner was spread in the same room, the menu card had been reprinted, and the diners even took the same places at the board that they occupied when saying farewell. At the dinner of two years a Col. Ar- chibald Hopkins read the origin “Dewey Poem,’’ which was prophetic in character. One verse, in particular, has since become famous, It reads: “We know our honor’ll be sustained Where’er his pennant flies, Our rights respected and maintained, Whatever power defies.’’ But the verse that figured most promi- nently in the affair of w-night was the one the diners selected to print on the front of the menu card, and it, perhaps, was more prophetic than all the rest. It reads: “And when he takes the homeward tack Beneath an Admiral’s flag, We'll hail the day that brings him back, And have another jag.’’ Col. Hopking read to-night another poem of 23 verses. After telling in rhyme how wamee won his victory in Manila Bay, he adds: “And through the waiting came, Alert and still "midst all the noise, He justly won a statesman’s fame By his consummate tact and polse. months that “What mean the crowds, the marching men The flag s, when he appears?

Special to the Post-Dispatch. TAYLORVILLE, Ill, Oct. B—-J. W. Oates, a well-to-do farmer residing two miles west of Taylorville, received a tele- gram to-day from his daughter at Minne- apoiis, Minn., stating that she was penni- less in a strange city. An exchange of telegrams followed and a romance with a sad sequel has developed, Miss Gertie Oates left Taylorville January for Sioux City, Io., where she was to spend a year with wealthy relatives and attend school. Until three weeks ago let- ters have been received by her aged par- ents. each week tiling thm of her con- tnitment and happiness. “when the fatenr received the telegram from Minneapolis to- day informing him of his daughter's mis- fortune, he was dumfounded, and in an- swer to his queries came the following story: ‘“‘Last Monday she was married to F. Mayon of Sioux City and they went to Minneapolis on a wedding tour.

REFUSE TO EXHIBIT IN FRANCE Minneapolis Millers Object to Discrim- ination Against American Flour. MINNEAPOLIS, Minn., Oct. 8.—Because France discriminates against flour in its tariff laws, Minneapolis millers have decided not to exhibit at the Paris Exposition.

LONDON, Oct. 28..—How much have the South African millionaires already bene- fited in actual money by this Transvaal war, which is their handiwork? That is a difficult question to answer de- finitely, but it is not exaggeration to say that the boom in Kaffir shares probably has already enabled them to scoop in from $10,- 000,000 to $15,000,000. The shares of the Rand mine, one of the biggest joint stock com- panies, which stood at 27% at the last set- tlement before the war was declared, stands to-day at 41. Every Kaffir share has in- creased in value from one to four or five oints. Perhe Statist, judging soberly the wild de- light in the South African market, predicts that this boom has come to stay, giving its reasons thus: ; “The unreat will disappear, reforms and modified working cond.tions will mean very much to the mining districts and will per- mit a great number of properties being de- velo , which in the past have not been worked energetically for the reason that the beds of vere have been of such low grade that under the old conditions it would not have paid to provide the capital neces- to work. But with the disappearance of the excessive cost of dynamite and the organization of a supply of labor, with an eWicient detective force to put a stop to thefts, the gold amalgam companies that! t in the past will be have worked with arger profits and —_— enabled to make panies which have been kept from abet because of the medoiaeva!l Government wi have an opportunity of starting under fair conditions. Where only 5 shillings ($1.3) perhaps per ton benefit tq be secured in the working cost the saving, which would be ure gain, would mean about $12,500,000 ad- Sition to the profits.

DUKE — Reiterates the Charge That He is a Corruptionist. eee eee “OPULENT IN DISHGNESTY.” GOEBEL WILL GO TO LOUISVILLE AND FACE HIS ENEMIES. The Wind Up of the Bitter Kentucky Contest Finds the Regular Ticket on the Way to Success. Special to the Post-Dispatch. LOUISVIULE, Ky., Oct. 28.—Senator Goe- bel, in reply to Gen. Duke's card, says: “They have not even spared my parents, who have been in their graves for years; they hired convicted libelers to traduce me, They brought here men now of Chicago, who has not for tWo years Covington. met with the card of Basil W. Duke, con- veying against me a personal threat. But I want to tell you that no personal threat is going to deter me in the prosecution of this campaign. ‘“‘My friends, did you hear that roll of something like thunder to-day? That was the echo of the laugh from Frankfort that went up when the people there read Basil Duke's card denying that he was a corrup- tionist. In fraud he and his followers are rich, in dishonesty opulent, and, when the truth is known about their infamy, mil- lionaires."’ Senator Goebe) then announced that next week he would return to Louisville to face his accusers if they cared to meet him, and it is the outcome of these probable meet- ings that is feared by the friends of both Duke and Goebel. Beyond what they have already said neither will now talk. Nel- ther {is a man of bluster or wasted words. The Wind-up of the most bitter political campai ever waged in Kentucky finds the Goebel, or “regular’’ Democrats, to-all appearances, in the easy chair. A con- servative estimate of the situation leaves the deduction that Goebel will be elected Governor; that Taylor, the Republican nominee, will be second, and that ex-Gov. Brown, who heads the so-called ‘‘bolting’’ Democratic ticket, will bring up the rear with a vote somewhere in the neighbor- }hood of 6800. The feeling between Goebel, cratic candidate for Governor, and Gen. Basil W. Duke, who is leading the fight for the Brown, or so-called Democratic bolting element in the gubernatorial con- test, has reached a stage which gives alarm to friends of both men. Gen. Duke, in a card to the public, denounced Goebel as a liar, slanderer and assassin. Goebel had called Duke a corruptionist. BRATTON WAS.

At the end of these four years he Went [to Haltimore, where he thovgnt he saW a W.der field for his talents. He has made that city his home most of the time s:nce. It was in 1876, soon afier he located in the Monumeniul City, that the history of the linotype begins. From then until 1830 his every thought to the creation of his machine. He took lit- tle rest.. Night and dCay he toiled, and gradually put into his work the goid of his brain and the brawn of his body. Oniy such men as Morse, Field, Gray, Bell or Edison could tell what such toil and apgli- cation means Finaliy, at the end of these four years of struggle, he had a machine that would, by action of a keyboard something like a type- writer, set a line of key dies or types, jus- | tify them to the exact width of a column or any required measure, and cast it into a solid line of lead or type metal. Yet his work was 1ot done, for after he had ac- complished all this, and had secured his tents, another obstacle seemed to baffle hin. Men of money discredited his ma- chine even after they had seen it work. Fubishers said it was impraciicabie, They were Willing to “try’’ his device if he could show that it would do the work of five or six men setting type from the case, but not until then did they care to take any risks. By constant pleadings, however, he at last succeeded in organizing a company with small cupiial, which in the nexi taree ‘cars Was consumed in efforts to piace the hinotyee in the composing room of some daily sewspaper. With money al! gone, the machine turned down, the @espair of fuilure, of seven years of wasted toli—of death, almost, was upon him. Moreover, his physical system was shattered, and he passed the next three years in a struggle to live. But day dawned for him at iast. In 1886, Whitelaw Reid of the Tribune agreed to tre e ~ochine. It proved an suceess, and he equipped his office them. Then OC.et wos, apeirs took them up, and from that time fame and a golden reward were his.

NEGROES AND WHITES GUILTY. Samuel H. Benge, Who Signed the Cherokee Treaty, Tells of Affairs in the Territory. Special to the Post-Dispatch. WASHINGTON, Oct. 28.—Samuel Houston Benze, the only surviving signer of the Indian treaty of 1866, Is in Washington, where he was summoned as a witness be- fore the Court of Claims. Mr. Benge !s a full-blooded Cherokee, and is now in his 68th year. His home is near Fort Gibson, I. T., and since his 22d year he has been prominent in the affairs of his people. In the civil War Mr. Benge served with distinction as Lieutenant in the Third In- dian Regiment, Company A. Speaking of the condition of the Chero- kee country Mr. Benge sald: ‘“‘While some people claim that there is a very large amount of crime in the Indian territory, 1 tell you that such is not the case, ‘but I will tell you that the larger por- tion of crime is committed by the whites aud negroes. Renegate whites and negroes commit fully 80 per cent. of all crime, and Statistics will bear me out in this state- ment, The United States court is held in Northern district, and seven to twenty miles of Fort Gibson. I believe they should be consolidated and all located at Fort Gibson, one of the most de- sirable places in the Indian territory. The post should be re-established there, and the Cherokees would be glad to see this done. Fort Gibson is also the proper place for the penitentiary. If the United States courts werc consolidated at Fort Gibson it would mean a very large saving to the government and the people of the territory. “I wish to say that we want the home rule plank of the platform rigidly enforced in the territory.

The United States sold this land to the Cherokee, and re- served nu minerals except the salt on the Salt plains, and we believe that all the minerals ought to go to the allotment of land, and we do not believe that any per- son or corporation should acquire feases which would interfere with vested rights. ‘A great many of our people are op- They claim the Gov- ernment ought to protect them under treaty stipulations of 1866. as guaranteeed to them.

ANDREW CARNEGIE INTERESTED The Company Will Operate in Many Sections and Battle tc a Finish. Special to the Post-Dispatch. MONTPELIER, ‘fnd., Oct. 28.—A-one-hun- dred-million-dollar company is about to ma- terialize in the oil business in the Indiana, Ohio, Texas, California, Southern New York, Indian Territory, Pennsylvania, West Virginia and Kentucky oil fields. This company will go into competition with the Standard Oi] Co. in supplying oil to all markets, and will not leave a stone un- turned until it supplies oil to the trade of the world. If the concern develops it will have mil- lions back of it and plenty of cash to swing the concern. Producers of the United States will take half the stock of the company by putting in oil productions and cash, while an Englisn syndicate with many mil- lions will supply $50,000,000 ready cash te keep things moving along. For years the English have been afraid to go into the business in opposition to the Standard Oil Co., but that is now over. It is currently reported that the matter already has stavt- ed in a small way by the purchase of the old Peerless refinery at Findlay, which is now being rapidly put into shape for busi- ness. It has been renamed the National Refining Co. Among those that are said to be back: of the new company are Andrew Carnegie, the Indiana Pipe Line and Refining Co., ¢ uda- hy Oil Co., Indian Territory Petroleum Co., United States Oil Co., Southern Oil Co., Fred E. Boden. who has just pur- chased property in West Virginia for $/00,- 000; Fearless Oi] Co. of Indiana, Northern Oi] Co., Kentucky Oil and Pipe Line Co., Emery Oil Co. of Indiana, Lew Smery of the Eastern field; the Manhattan Oj] Co., Amos Steelsmith, John Shay, McCormick Bros., Thede Barnsdall, Mike Murphy and many other producers. This concern will run a net of pipe lines through the various oil districts of the continent and do a gen- eral oil purchasing business, the same as the Standard does with its pipe lines. With the coming of a concern of this kind into the field it will naturally advance the price of the crude product, as there will then be some competition. American _ oil then will be distributed throughout more of the old continent.than it now is, as two ex- tensive companies should increase the ship- ments to the foreign trade much more than one could. It also is rumored that refiner- ies will be located at Kankakee, Ill., Mont- pelier or Indianapolis, Ind., and most likely ‘at Indianapolis, as it is one of the leading railroad centers, Findlay, O., Toledo, O., Parkersburg, W. Va.; and the new concern will control other and smaller refineries, now owned by individuals, that are contem- plating taking stock in the company, The Standard Oil Co. would never recognize To- ledo with a refinery and the new concern corsiders that the people will stay by them if they locate one in Toledo. It is said that Andrew Carnegie !s one of the prime movers in the new concern, doubtless in retaliation for John Rockefel- ler’s antagonism in the ore trade. For the past several weeks — have been going around the Ohio and Indiana fields 'ooking up matters and sounding the oil people as to the possibilities of securing a large amount of the output at an advance over the roe now paid by the Buckeye Pipe-line Co. is new concern has put a damper on the intended shutdown that was contem- plated some months ago. LEAD AND ZINC TRUST. A Big Combination in the Joplin-Ga- lena District Formed. Special to the Pust-Dispatch. JOPLIN, Mo., Oct. 2.—A combination known as the National Lead, Zinc and Spel- ter Co., with a capitalization of $10,000,000 and with a surplus of $500,000 to control and work large interests in the Joplin- Galena district, has been formed. The con- cern was promoted by Marcus Pollasky, president of the National Mine Co. of Kan- eas City, who has just returned from New York, where he succeeded in interesting Eastern capitalists. At present the offices of the company will be located in Kansas City. Mr. Poillasky has for months been quietly at work securing options on valu- able properties in the Joplin-Galena dis- trict, which ft Is claimed now produces nearly seven-eighths of the zinc ore of the United States and about one-fourth of the world’s supply. 2 —t 2 ee gains, to-morrow. i +e ry er = : "0d ad = A NEW OIL COMPANY | | is perceived in its smallest details, Read page 82, the Globe's powerful bar- | HOWELLS ON NOVELS A GREAT WRITER’S VIEWS ON ™ LIVE SUBJECT. THEY REFLECT HUMAN NATURE. The Novelist Charmed His Hearers in. Chicago—Addressed the Twen- fieth Century Club. Special to the Post-Dispatch. CHICAGO, Oct. 28.—Willlam Dean How- ells took the members of the Twentieth Century Club into an author's confidence at H. N. Higtnbotham’s residence, when he told them all about ‘‘Novel Reading and Novel Writing.’’ The large ball-room of the Higinbotham home was crowded to its utmost capacity, the fashionabie audience Which heard the famous novelist overilow- beyond the arches into the adjoining fover, lt was Mr. Howell’s first appearance as a lecturer before a Chicago aud.ence and he won all who lstened by his exhaustiess good nature. Eypigram, satire, humor, pathos, ali the hidden keys'or human emo-~- tion he touched with the hand of a master and aiternately swayed his hearers’ 1l0 laughter and to. serious reflection. His points in illustrating an .dea were quickiy caught and appreciated. He told them what, in his opinion, was the ideal novel; wno should write and how it shouid be written. He told much of other authors, a lNthue about his own works; the construction of a book; the development of an idea, but care- fully refrained from comparing the works of tellow workers .n the craft. He said: “We go to novels because the pleasure we find in them first; next because of their reflection of the drama of human life. ‘he reader considers what there im in the book that is good; the author dissects it to learn how the thing has been done. The author studies another novel than his own much as a painter wouid study a picture, a sculptor a marble piece or an architect a fine bit of constructive art.” According to Mr. Howells truth should be the predominating feature of a novel. lfa book is conceived in truth and its charac- ters are actual reproductions of flesh and biood models, that book !s enjoyable; beauty nature portrayed plus ine aris of man; if, however, there be falsehood at the outset, it has failed of its purpose and it doesn’t deserve to live. This is the relentless law of the novel. The test of truth in a novel is the knowledge whether its characters act and speak and think as the reader nimself would act, or acquaintances within his ey Style avails nothing if truth is lack- ng. There are three kinds of novels, the auto- biographical, the blographical and the his- torical, each of which Mr. Howells defined and pointed out. Because of the extraor- dinary limitations no great autobiographical novel had been written lately. Hawthorne had succeeded in producing one, ‘‘Gil Blas,’’ ‘David Coppertieid’’ and *‘Pendennis’’ were of that character. Henry James had pro- duced the second in his ‘“‘Roderick Hudson.” Historical novels were numerous. Following character, form is the next most essential element. The novelist should aim to so blend the real and actual in his work with the imaginative that the line of demarkation should be almost insensible. Mr. Howells told how he conceived his nov- els and how he wrote them. One idea suf- fices. The germ may have lain dormant for years, but once brought to light it develops rapidly. Chapters are worked out from day to day and characters developed as he pro- ceeds. Infinite patience is required. One writing never suffices; the manuscript is revised a score of times, and not infre- quently is cast out altogether. Things will not work out properly. Once, in despair, Mr. Howells destroyed WO pages of “The Undiscovered Country.” hen he wrote “The Lady of the Aroostook” and compieted that before returning to ‘““‘The Undiscovered Country.” In connection with “The Lady of the Aroostook” he told of an incident that put the audience in great od humor. A friend of his living in Paris had recommendéd the book to a Parisian lady, mother of three marriageable daughters. The climax in the story is the marriage of a young man, the character in the story, with a young wom- an, a chance acquaintance met on the steamer, The French mamma on discovering the ending of the story held up her hands; she was perfectly shocked, and declared that such books were perfectly immoral for a French jeune fille. “That shows,’ concluded Mr. Howells, “how very scruplous the French @re about fiction.”” The audience seemed pleased be- yond measure at this bon mot. Of novels that he thought would endure Mr. Howells cited “Anna Karenina,” by Tolstoi; Hawthorne’s “Scarlet Letter” and George Eliot's ““Middiemarch.” He closed by deprecating the attempts of modern writers to create for themselves a wide cir- cle of readers by resorting to sensational- ism. The pees novel may beguile for the while; but it is unhealthy. Te last, a novel should be instructive, Inspirational! and a consolation. The ideal novel would yet be produced. The younger authors were apercecniag nearer its realization. It would portray life as it is, not as it is dis- torted by commercialistic greed, = vey res eas 3 HOTELS FOR WORKER THE BUILDINGS IN NEW YORK ARE SUCCESSFUL. FOR MEN OF LIMITED MEANS. From a Philanthropic Project It Has Become a Business In- vestment. NEW YORK, Oct. 2.—The Mills Hotels have now been in practical working opera- tion long enough to prove an absolute suc- cess, both from a philanthropic and a busi- ness standpoint. Thousands of men have been afforded temporary homes, where Cleanl.ness and.comfort were possuble at an astonishingly low rate, and the promoters have drawn a dividend on the ammount in- vested in hotel property. Two of these noteis are now in operation, one on Bleeker street, containing 155 bed- rooms, and one on Riverton street, with 600 rooms. Both have large, handsome reading, writ- ing and smoking rooms, ijibraries with booKs and papers free to the roomers, and rooms devoted to games of every var.ety for rec- reation. They are buflt about an open court, thus affording light and ventijation to every room in the hotel. The bedrooms are all separate, and contain a single iron bed- stead, with good wire mattress, a hair mat- tress and clean bed linen. A strip of carpet, a chair and a closet with a lock compietes the furnishing of the bedroom, and g.ves an air of cozy tidiness to the place, A few of these rooms rent for 30 cents per night, the rest uniform.y 4% cents, pay- able in advance, whether for a sing.e night or for a nurgber of nights. | The need &and appreciation of just such hotels, aid also the appreciation shown by the fact that every room is filled the en- tire year through, and many applicants cannot be accommodated. A restaurant is connected with each hotel, in which good food is well cooked and well served. A regular dinner is given for 15 cents, con- sisting of soup, one meat dish, two vege- tables, tea or coffee and dessert. Each hotel has' baths, plunge and shower, free of charge; toliet rooms on every floor, and wash basins in every part of the building There are tubs in which a& man may wash his own clothes, and a steam dryer. Neither are the usual] hotel appointments wanting, for each has its own news stand, postoffice and custom laundry. There is very little red tape in the way of house ruleg. Lights are extinguished in the courts at M p. m. and reading rooms and offices closed at midnight. No liquors are allowed in the hotels. Only one person oc- cupies a room and has every conyenience of warmth, electric lights and elevators found in any modern hotel. These are not family hotels, but for men only, and came into existence from the fact that thére are utterly unfit accom- modations in New York City for decent men who earn small or moderate incomes. Mr. Mills lays no claim to its being a charitable concern. He saye that he “seeks to benefit his fellowmen in a strictly busi- ness way, without offending the pride or raiseworthy independence of those whom e hopes to aid.” While this benefits the man without a family, something more should be done for the man with wife and children, who have to subsist on a very small income, These need the ‘“‘benefits of enlightened philan- thropy’’ even more than homeless men. The women and children need better homes, where baths and decent surroundings would open their eyes to existing safe- guards, and where health, moraiity and a sound family life might be secured.

FIGHTING FOR MONEY — YOUNG HILTON CONTESTS GHI5 FATHER’S WILL. SAYS $25,000 IS NOT ENOUGH. His Infatuation for an Actress, It Is Said, Cost me a Cool Millio NEW YORK, Oct. 2%.—Henry Graham Hilton has instituted a contest of his father’s will. By its terms he receives only $25,000 conditionally, and even this, by an- other clause, he is debarred from if he opposes the testament in any manner. To each of his brothers and sisters are bequeathed estates valued at from one to four millions dollars, yet at one time Henry Graham Hilton was his father’s best loved ch'ld and the son upon whom his highest hopes rested. The misfortune that followed like a curse the millions of A. T. Stewart Was not so terrible to Henrv Hilton as the disappointment caused him by his second s0n, now practicaily disinherited. There was not much surprise when Alex- ander T. Stewart, the merchant prince, left to Henry Hilton $1,000,000, and placed the great estate bequeathed to his widow largely :n the power of the lawyer. Hilton had been, first, Stewart's lawyer, then h‘s adviser, and in quick succession his confidential friend and business a«so- clate. At the lawyer’s suggestion the mil- llonaire had broadened the sphere of his influence, had purchased jands, built mar- ble palaces and erected mammoth hotels, until h's interests were seemingly beyond the power of one man to look after. The great dry goods house alone conducted a business aggregating $50,000,000 or $60,000,000 yearly. Some estimates of A. T. Stewart's wealth shortly before hig death placed it at $70,- 000,000 and few valuations went below $0,- And little by little, and as if by magic, Henry Hilton, counsellor and friend, se- cured every bit of this. Mrs. Stewart, soon after her husband's death, deeded to Hilton to pay the $1,000,000 legacy the entire dry goods business of A. T. Stewart, and later she gave to him full power of attorney to manage, d.rect and even use the rest of the great residuary estate. There were many criticism of the/law- yer’s professional] relations with his clfent’s widow. He was taking too much power, gaining too great a grasp on the Stewart millions, some said, and shook their heads, these Tablets or lozenges will digest. ; 300 to 3000 times its own weight of eggs and other wholesome food. claim has been proven by actual exg ments in the following manner: A boiled egg cut into small pieces placed in a bottle containing warm heated to ninety-eight degrees (or heat), one of these Tablets was placed in the bottle and the proper te perature maintained for three hours half, at the end of which time the eg as completely digested as it woulc ment was undertaken to demonstrate tag what it would do in the bottle it ald - also do in the stomach, hence its & tionable value in the cure of Dp and weak digestion.

A Description of the Route and the Work Which Is to Be Accom- plished by the Civil Engineers. NEW YORK, Oct. 28.—The building of the rapid transit railroad under New York will be begun in a short time. How the engi- neers are going to bore a hole through the center of Manhattan Island and directly under the foundations of the city’s sky- scraper buildings is a problem which has been successfully solved. Every detail of this enormous work has been planned. ‘Within three years after the first spadeful of earth has been turned the rapid transit commissioners are hopeful that the people will be speeding in fast and comfortable trains through the tunnel road from the City Hall to Harlem in 15 min- utes. The railroad will commence at 4 point in Park Row and a two-track loop will extend around the City Hall Park. ‘ie ia In front of the Pulitzer building the tour- track tunnel will begin and the route then lies under Center street, New Elm street. Lafayette place, across Astor place and un- der Astor place ge ne agama to linth street and Four ave , Nthe route then runs under Fourth avenue and Park avenue to Forty-second street, at the Grand Central Depot. Thence the — will’run west to Broadway and un s Broadway to a pare ogee Ninety-sixt street. This is the main ine. The construction of the loop around City Hall Park will allow the trains to be run at a headway of fifteen seconds, and the enigneer estimates that more than 200,000 persons can be handled each way at the Mity Hall station every day. The tunnel will be twenty-five feet underground along most of the downtown sections between the City Hall and the Grand Central Depot. Four tracks will be laid in the tunnel. - The inside tracks are to be used by the fast express trains and they will stop only at comparatively long distances. The out- side tracks will be used by the local trains stopping at each station of the road. The express trains run in the cit of New York. It is estimated that a speed of more than forty miles an hour will be attained over most of the route without danger. The City Hall station will be the largest upon the road. It will be located in the middle of the park. Engineer Parsons said that the tunnel road will not be the dark and gloomy hole in the ground which the street surface magnates declare it will be. A system of lighting has been perfected, and at frequent intervals througout the entire length of the tunnel largé electric lights be sunk in the recesses of the wall. The stations are to be lighted with elec- tricity, and the general effect 1s to be light, avuiding any gloomy projection. To pro- duce such an appearance the color of the enameled bricks or tiles will be white, ex- cept when bricks or tiles of other color are introduced for architectural effect. The motive power of the underground road has not been decided on as yet. It is said that the rapid transit commission will favor the third rail system of propulsion. The equipment of the road has been fully settled on. The amount of such equipment shall be sufficient to supply at one time trains of three cars on the local lines at two-minute intervals and trains of four cars on the express line at four-minute in- tervals, each car having a minimu seat- ing capacity of 48.persons. The trains will be run at an average speed of 40 miles an hour on the express tracks and the sta- tions will be one and a half miles apart. Ten seconds is allowed by the contract for the duration of each stop. The contract re- uires that ‘both motors and cars shall be designed to have a handsome and attrac- tive appearance and special care must be taken to avoid all loose or rattling parts that might produce noise. The signaling devices will be of the most eroved character, and preference will be will a ven to a system which will automatically bring a train to a stop in the event of the man in charge failing to obey a danger signal. Engineer Parsons says that sucha system will be put in operation on the un- derground road, and he expects the road to be operated for years without accident. The ventilation of the tunnel has re- ceived careful attention at the hands of the engineers. They expect pure and wholesome air will be supplied at all times. In addition to the openings to the tunnel to be constructed at stations the contract- ors must build two large blowholes be- tween every two station on the tunnel por- tion af the main and west side lines be- tween Sixtieth street and One Hundred and Fiftieth street. At the end of the main line at Ninety- sixth street sultable crossings are to be constructed, permitting the free running of trains from the south-bound express track and in like manner from the north-bound = track to the north-bound local track, At One Hundred and Third street the out- side tracks will rise so as to permit the inside, or express, tracks to curve to the right, passing under the north-bound track through private vroperty to One Hundred and Fourth street and Central Park to One Hundred and Tenth street, near Lenox av- enue, thence to One Hundred and Forty- second street. This is the start to the east side line. From Lenox avenue to a point near One Hundred and Forty-second street the route will run under private property to the Harlem River, through a deep tunnel under the river and under private property to One Hundred and Forty-ninth street, thence urder One Hundred and Forty- ninth street to Third avenue, to West- chester avenue. At this point the tracks will emerge from the tunnel and be carried on a Viaduct along and over Westchester avenue, Southern boulevard and Boston road to the Bronx Park. The west side line starts at Ninety-sixth street and runs along and under Broadway to a point between One Hundred and Twen- ty-second and One Hundred and Twenty- third streets, where it emerges from the tunnel and will be carried by a viaduct along and over Broadway to a point be- tween One Hundred and Thirty-fourth and One Hundred and Thirty-fifth streets, where it shall again pass into and continue in the tunnel under Broadway to a point 188) feet north of One Hundred and Nine- tieth street. Here the tracks again emerge from the tunnel and are carried on a viaduct over private property to Elwood street and over and along Elwood street to =i naserege road, across private property and over the Harlem ship canal and Spuyten Duyvill Creek to Riverdale avenue, The terminus of the west side line will be near Bailey avenue, Tho stations along the route of the un- derground road will be located on street corners. At the present time it is notein the plans to have elevators running from the street surface to the tunnel stations. The engineers assert that the traffic on the road will be @o great as to prevent the use of elevators. They say that they have planned to have the stairways large and built at an angle 80 as to be easy of ascent. The stations on the viaduct portion of the road will be very much like those of the elevated railroad, except that they will be tiled throughout and will be of a much more artistic design.

Custer Through Hos- tile Indian Bands. * SIOUX CITY, Io., Oct. B.—Living on the west bank of thé Missouri River, about halfway between Pierre and Chamberlaih, 5S. D., is a man who has hab‘tated for near- ly § years with the Indians. Beginning as a fur trader, then becoming a squaw man, Felicien Fallas once served as scout for Custer in his campaigns among the Sioux. Still a hale and hearty man, the old scout lives in peace and quiet with his oddly assorted family in the country where he has seen more than the average share of stirring adventures. Born in France, brought to St. Louis when a lad of 18 by his father, young Fallas hired out to the American Fur Co., and in 181 was among the Sioux at or near Fort George on the Missouri, now an abandoned post near h:s present home. From 1857 to 1860 Fallas was in the em- ploy of Maj. Hamilton in the fur trade at ort Clark, N. D. This post was estab- lished for the convenience and protection of the American Fur Co., which had eub- osts or stations among the Rees, Man- ans, Gros Ventres and Sioux. The foliow- ing entry appears in Maj. Hamilton's d.ary, — is now in the possession of Mr. Fal- “Fort Primeau, June 14, 1860.—This is my last entry in this journal, as all my books will be packed up in the morning. I have now been at this post three years and eight- een years in the Indian country, and shall now leave it for good, as I have had enough of the —— red rascals. I ghall look for the steamboat day after to-morrow, in which lI shall bid adieu to the Ree reba “JAMBS V, HAMILTON.” About this time Fallas also left the Ree country and returned to the Sioux near Yankton. This same year he married his gg oe wife, a Yankton Sioux, with whom e has lived ee since. He has 12 living children, all of whom are doing well. ey are among the most progres- sive mixed bloods on the reservation. Be- sides the Fallas children among the Brules, there are others on the Ree and Gros Ven- tre reservations, as Fallas was married to an Indian woman when a trader at Ari- carar Post, now North Dakota. Mrs. Cus- ter, in her bok, ‘“‘Boots and Saddles,”’ re- fers to the guide (Felicien Fallas), though not by name, ‘‘as the most married man.”’ Fallas, while something of a Lothario among the Indians, has also done a good service in advising the Indians to remain peaceful, and as a Government scout un- der Gen. Custer. He has taught the In- dian, in a measure, to cultivate corn, to eg yon J for the winter and to live mure ike the white man. To do this he himself has lived as an Indian and been one of them {[n all things except in hostile move- ments against the whites. In the Santee-Sloux outbreak In Minneso- ta in 1862 the Sioux living farther West and beyond the Missouri were peaceful, at least they took no part in the massacre. Fallas had several narrow escapes from straggling Sante war parties. At one time when returning from Fort Thompson to Yankton he suddenly came upon two San- tee warriors, painted and armed with bow and arrows. Snapping his pistol at them, he ran his horse down one of the steep gumbo hills of the Missouri, with arrows and Indians too close for comfort. He succeeded in eluding this party, but lost his horse in the chase. While a trader among the Rees Fallas had an experience which he still remembers and tells as something of a joke on himself. Big Head, a Cheyenne chief, had his lodge pitched near the subtrading post during the winter of 1858. Two of the chief’s children died and Indian superstition and the evil medicine man advised that some white man was responsible for the children’s death. The dead were not buried, though a month elapsed, and Big Head became very sad and morose. His squaws, four in number, made the usual amount of wailing and gioom settle down upon the little post, gar- risoned by two white men and three half- breeds. The mournful Big Head had been painted for several days. hough the weather was bitter cold, he appeared at times outside the lodge painted black and divested of all clothing except the regulation loin cloth. He was seen to carry his rifle at all times and things were approaching a crisis, when either Fallis or his partner must be sec- rificed. After a long consultation Fallas was selected to carry a big bundle of pres- ents to Big Head’s lodge. With a heavy heart and a bundle of calico, cloths and traders’ supplies the young trader set out on his diplomatic errand for the chieftain’s lodge. The squaws came running and wail- ing to meet him and escorted him to the principal tepee. Big Head sat by the fire tin all his hideous paint and with head bowed down and his rifle lying across his knees. Fallas undid his bundle, took cloth and covered the dead outside the lodge and distributed trinkets among the many wives. The squaws inh turn gave him soup an buffalo meat, as he now tells it. “I was too scared to eat, but drank the soup and strung the meat on a stick so as not to give offense.”’ The Cheyenne chief still sat in silence, not raising his head or speaking, and Fal- las, thinking his mission had availed noth- ing, departed, but he had hardly left the camp when Big Head appeared and called him back. Then the sad and mournful chief took six painted and tanned buffalo robes and threw them out at the feet of Fallas as return presents. Thus peace was re. stored and Big Head buried his children. asa guide for Gen. Custer, who was about to traverse the Indian country, tile camps, and, when necessary, them. of the Missouri and send a steamboat a few days in advance to carry the heavier supplies. Fallas joined Gen. Custer at Springfield, S. D., and 4 the middle of May the party sterted, keeping on the east side of the river. Falls was the only man in the expedition that knew the country, the In- dians and their location. The command numbered 1000 mounted men, together with a large wagon train, approximately 1500 in all. The steamboat carried a small guard, the crew and a number of ladies, wives of the officers. Fallas on this expedition became inti- mately acquainted with Gen. Custer, and was his daily and trusted companion until he reached Fort R.-ce, N. D., when he left to return to his home among the Yankion Sioux. . Fallas eaid he rere f rode from one to two miles in advance of the command. He was generally accompanied by Gen. Custer, and often by Mrs. Custer. The General was very fond of hunting and had 12 dogs with him. He dressed often in buckskin and wore a red flannel shirt. Mrs. Custer often asked him to d.scard this garment, as it made him conspicious and easily seen and recognized by the Indians. While the Gen- eral in all things seemed to respect the wishes of Mrs. Custer, in this instance he seems to*have pa.d little or no attention. At Fort Thompson, where Crow Creek Agency is now, a council was held with the Indians. The past winter had been un- usually eevere, and the Indians were short of buffalo meat of other food. They were importunate in their beguing. and seemed to have only one object in the council and that to exact food from the soldiers, Gen, Custer refused to give them yo Agen but told them that the great father had sent them there to meet the Indians and to fight them if they were ready. He told the In- dians they had boasted of their strength and given the great father much trouble. He wae sent there not to talk, but to fight, and if the Indians were for fighting they could have all they wanted. This talk did not anger the Indians; on the contrary, it gave them inuch respect for Pehinhanska- oglesa (ong hair red shirt), the name they gave the general, No large body of Indlans were encount- ered until in the vicinity of Standing Rock. All were well disposed and usually came into camp. Many of the Indians met Dy this expedition on the Upper Missouri at this time professing great friendship for Gen. Custer and the great father in Washington were with the hostiles on the Little Big Horn three years later at the time of the Custer massacre. At thig time Fallas had beeh among the Indiana and living in the Indian country over twenty years. He says that Custer’s subdue knowledge of In , Outside of speaking their —y BY tter than his.

REMAINS OF INDIANS FOUND Valuable Discoveries Made by Farmers Excavating at Elliott’s, Brown County, South Dakota. ————i. SIOUX FALLS, 8. D. Oct. 3.—Excava- tions being made on a farm owned by 8. H. Elliott and his son In Brown County havo brought to light some important and fnter- esting apecimensa of the work of Indian moundbulléers. Near their building is an Indian mound five or-six feet high, through which they have been digging with a view te constructing a barn. The excavation they have made is about 16 feet wide and 5 feet deep, and in the course of digging they have found the ekeletons of nine persons, who were evidentiy Indians. In some instances only the skulls have been found, but in others there were bones en: ugh te show that the people buried there were very tail, Some femur bones have been found which wy such great length as to indicate that the possessors of them cannon ' | | in life must have been from 7 to 8 feet In height. he bodies appear to have been buried face downward, with the bodies doubled backward, so that the heels rested upon the back of the head or at the sides of it. Tie bones of one child were found, by the side of which was found the skele- ton of a dog, which, it is supposed, was killed and burfed with agence in his journey to the happy hunt- ng grounds, A considerable number of fiint arrow heads and some stone pipes were | found near the bones. Mr. Elliott says the pipes are different from anything that has ever been found in other Indian mounds opened in this re- gicn. They are not made of the red pipe stone almost invariably used, and they ar made in different form. Instead of havin an opening at the side for a stem they hav a hole in the bottom, In shape thc, much like the modern cob pipe, and are of a very hard stone, something like flint, which must have been very difficult to work into shape from the original rock.

Owing to the demand upon the shipyards, both in this country and abroad the best possible terms that could be made for the construction of these sh ps fixed their delivery im 19038. It ‘s possible one or mcre of them may be ready in 182. No assurances of that ie aiven to the buyers.

CALLS ENGLAND A MURDERER. GIVES HIS REASONS FOR QUIT- TING PARLIAMENT. He Declares That England Is Poison- ing the Wells of Liberty All Over the World. Special Cable to the Post-Dispatch. Copyright, '899, by the Press Publishing Company. LONDON, Oct... 28.—Michael Davitt has given to me the highly important signed statement that follows, setting forth his reasons for resigning his seat in the Brit- ish Parlament: “My resignation is prompted by three reasons, closely related to each other. “IT have spoken in the House of this war with the Boers as ‘organized infamy.’ This is what the civilized world, outside of the jingoes, will call it. But the House of Commons approves this war, supplies the money for its prosecuton, indorses the criminal policy which led up to it. The only protest stlil left _to me to make against this monstrous action of the British Par- Mament is to cease to be a member of it. “Secondly, I feel most strongly about the non-attendance of the Nationalist members in the House during the fight of the Trans- VYaal's cause. To combat the selfish fe- roeity of the jingo war policy were left Only Dillon and three or four more of us, with an average backing of 30. In division our colleagues remained in the _ lobbies. This is a disgrace to the popular repre- sentatives of Ireland, who number 81 men, Some of the absentees are known to be pro-British and opposed to the Boers in this war. I shall do my best, now that 1 am again a free man, to hunt these sup- porters of-British infamy out of their Irish constituencies. “Thirdly, I am convinced that it is a Waste of time and energy for me to re- main in the House appealing for justice to an assembly that is dominated by money ‘and lust for conquest. Engiand is now the most unscrupulous enemy of liberty among the civilized nations. Her money and her ous commerce are poisoning the wells berty all over the world. It was Eng- example and influence that induced Inited Statés to do in the Philip- hat England ts now doing in Africa. War against the Dutch South Africa, English forces have htered thousands upon thousands of natives ia the regions of the Soudan, the Ni er, in Sierra Leone, Comassie, Uganda and elsewhere during the seven years I have been in the House. “To me all this is murder and robbery on a scale of imperial magnitude and for the basest motives. It was done hypocritally, rofessing the purpose of civilization and umanity, be ashamed to assume under such circum- stances. “Lastly, I asked myself this question: ‘If two little nations like the Transvaal] and the Orange Free State, with a com- bined population’ less than that of San Francisco, can challenge England's mill- tary might on the field of battle, can beat English soldiers, even when outnumbered as the Boers did, both at Dundee and Elandslaagte, can threaten the prestige of England with the most serious blow it has received during this century. If, I say, a handful of people can do this tn their fight for independence, the TIrish_ race, which numbers at least 2,000,000 at the present day, is called upon to view the problem of home rule in the new light of these startling facts. To-day we are sim- ly scolding about England's rule in Ire- and. Woman could do better than men. If that is all men can do, Ireland's cause will be dead and de servedly eames.

PARIS, Oct. 2.—President Loubet fre- quently strolls out unattended and Incog- nito for an evening walk along the Champs Elysee. A writer in Le Matin says he found Loubet and his son a few nights ago quietly drinking beer in a corner of a small cafe, looking over the evening papers and discussing matters jovially, like two good bourgolse. None among the habitues recog- nized or noticed them.’ In commenting on this the press differs. Some extol h's demo- cratic, simple ways, others deciare such conduct unbecoming the head of the State.

Meanwhile Mrs. Arthur Paget and Lady Randolph, aided by Mrs. James Brown Potter, are getting up a cafe chantant in aid of a hospital ship to be equipped for South Africa by American women in Eng- land and the United States.

PARIS, Oct. 3.—Several prominent magis- trates intend to have a bill introduced be- fore the Chamber to constitute a tribunal of women to judge certain cases for which the magistrates are incompetent. The original idea was prompted by the time consumed in suits between mistress and servant, dressmaker and client. It has lately been a great advertising trick for actresses and demimondaines to order enr- nously expensive gowns and tben contest payment on questions of misfit or over- charge, thereby getting the town excited over their extravagance and prompting humorous paragraphs.

For the first time in its history the Academy is asked to take sides in politics. Deroulede’s works, despite the patriotism which in- spired them, were never considered very good literature. Still it is quite possible his friends will secure his election, they being very influential. If so, several mem- bers will resign, which in two centuries THREATENED 28.

The correspondent here of the Assoctated | Press recently had a conversation with employe of the Foreign Office, who enjoys the Eemperor’s confidence, and he took special pains to assure the ccrrespond- ent that the projected increase must in no sense be construed as a menace to any power or group of powers. He added: “For a colonial power like Germany has become a matter of necessity to get a bigger navy. Recent events show how necessary it fs.’ It is interesting to note how public opin- fon has taken this idea of the Emperor's. Its reception has been most varied. The whole Agrarian press seizes the opportunity to assure the Emperor that the Agrarians are quite willing to vote for a bigger navy. The provision is that he drop his canal project. The Kreuz Zeitung savs there ts not enough money to pay for both. The Center organs declare that the absolute necessity of the increase must be shown before the delegates to the Reichstag vote for it, and the National Liberal, Reich- spartie, Pan-German, anti-Semite and a nuinber of non- partisan papers discuss the plan rather favorably. On the other hand, the whole radical and socialist press decries the need of increase. The papers claim that the masses have about reached the limit of taxation and ought not to be further burdened under any circumstances. The opinion of well-informed politicians is that Prince Hohen'ohe will be onlv too glad to resign as soon as the Emperor finds a suitable successor, but it will be difficult to replace him itn these critical times. So far His Majesty does not kfow whom to ask to step into Prince Hohen- od | shoes.

If the Islands Became Ours Through Purchase It ls Not Logical That the Deity Guided the Purchasers. SIOUX FALLS, S. D., Oct. &—Senator Pettigrew, in an interview to-day regard- ing the report sent out from Aberdeen regarding his speech at Woonsocket, said: “What I sald in miy speech was substan- tially as follows: That President McKinley in his speeches in the West said the Phil- ippine Islands had been delivered into our hands by the will of God and that God had caused our flag to be raised there. “In view of the fact that the Secretary of State recently wrote a letter to an Ohio Congressman, evidently intended to be used to affect the vote in that State, in Which he said that we acquired no title to the Philippine Islands by conquest; that our claim rested solely upon the purchase £ of the islands from Spain, and in view of the fact that the President had Instructed our commissioners at Paris to insist upon the cession of these islands to the United States, that if God had anything to dv with the transaction He must have come to McKinley in a vision, thus making the President the latest of the prophets, and in this way only could God be responsible under the circumstances for our claim of soveereignty. “I said that I refused to receive such messages from God transmitted thzough such a source, and refused to recognize a who would use such an implement as @ means of making His wishes known to us, that q@ur flag stood for a principle, for an idea, for the doctrines of the declara- tioh of independence; that it was emble- matic of these, and when raised in viola- tion of the ideas for which it stood and the principles which made it dear to us, it Was no longer our fiag and could only be restored to us by pulling it down; and that I blushed for shame for my country’s hon- or and wished I could blot out the recent history we had made.

BVANSVILLB, Ind., Oct. 28.—Love had its way the other night when Miss Lena Gist stole from her room to meet Lewis Assalena, to whom she was married an hour afterwards. This was the third attempt made by this couple to get married. On the two previous occasions the mother of the girl prevented the eiopement. The mother fatled, as mothers generally do, when they try to keep their daughters from marrying the men they love. f Miss Gist made her escape from the sec- ond story of her home means of a lad- der, and was conducted to a place by a friend, where she found her ardent lover waiting. For several months Assalena has been keeping company with Miss Gist, who lives with her mother, Mrs. Bassett, at the cor- ner of Second and Cherry streets. The oung lovers wanted to marry, but Mrs. 3assett would not give her consent, as she thought her daughter was too young to take this step. The daughter thought dif- ferently adbout the matter and had her way. Miss Gist busted herself packing her trunk and getting her clothes in shape, as if she intended to go somewhere. Mrs. Bassett feared her daughter intended to elope, but said nothing to her. She made up her mind to watch the girl and pre- vent an elopement, if possible. The young Lochinvar had arranged a meeting with his sweetheart at 7:30 o'clock. He had his friend, Fred Gosleé, to’go to Miss Gist’s home at this time. Goslee se- cured a ladder and placed it up to one of the windows in the rear of the house. When Miss Gist was.ready to leave she handed her clothes out to Goslee and then descended the ladder and was seon éutside the yard on her way to meet the boy she loves. She accompanied Goslee to the cer- ner of First and Cherry streets, where As- Salena was wailing with acab, The lovers, accompanied by Goslee, were driven to seat irginia street, where they were mar- e After the ceremony Assalena telephoned Mrs Bassett of his marriage and asked her forgiveness.

Charles Curtis Stabbed by Horcae Hark—Josie White’s Fractuerd Ribs—Bob Ferguson Cut in the Face. James O’Hearn’s curiosity nearly cost him his life yesterday afternoon. As it was, he sustained serious injuries and is now at the City Hospital. The boy, for he is only 14, is in the em- pioy of the Bolaad Stationery Co. He was sent with a meecage yesterday to the Sim- mons Hardware Co.’s warehouse, et Ninth street and Clark avenue. The individual wanted was not in at the time and, looking out of the window, James noticed some men engaged in repairing a machine. He con- cluded to pass the time watching them, so he started across the railroad tracks. As he walked over a network of rails he saw a train approaching. He turned back, but another locomotive blocked the way. The youngster became excited and was soon hemmed in by the cars. In trying to extricate himself he was caught between two coaches and severely crushed. Dr. Nietert says he will recover. Bob Ferguson, star guest at the Erie Hotel, took brandy instead of medicine by mistake last night, and then went out for an airing. He met a mar—just who the man was he can’t say—and the stranger cut him on the face with a corkscrew. The lacerations are being treated by Dr. Nie- ter.t Horace Hark met Charles Curtis at Sec- ond and Pine streets about 6 o’clock last evening. “You made a remark about me,” said Hark, “and now I want you to prove it.” There was an argument and Curtis sid- ae drew a knife and plunged it into Hark’'s side. The injured man screamed and started west on Pine street. Curtis followed. In a restaurant Hark sought protection from his infuriated pursuer. An ambulance was sumomned and he was conveyed to the @ity Hospital. Hark is 23 years old and oes at 1030 Market street. Both he and Curtis have been employed by the Columbia Preserv- ing Co. Bad feeling is said to have ex- isted between the two for some time. Dr. Nietert does not regard Hark’s con- dition as serious. Julius Martise, aged 11, played hide and seek on top of an express wagon yesterday afternoon. Now he is in the City Hospi- tal. He fell from the wagon while running from a companion, and sustained a fracture of the left arm. He will be able to return oe to his mother, who lives at 1413 Pine The lamplight was turned low in a dingy room at Main and Poplar streets last night and a policeman sat on the doorstep listen- ing to the conversation inside... On a cot lay Josie White, suffering from several fractured ribs. Near the bedside res John Smith, second mate on a steam- oat. “Now, don't say I struck you,” John was heard to remark, “because if you do they’) put me in the lockup. Just say you fell downstairs.’’ At that moment Policeman Getz entered and placed John under arrest on the charge of assaulting Rosie. The latter was sent to the City Hospital. It appears she was in- jured several days ago. Neighbors told the policeman that Smith kicked her in the side. She had no medical attention and Dr. Neltert says her condition is serious.

Explorer’s Latest Attempt Marks Him the Prince of All the Globe Trotters. SBDATTLBE, Oct. 2%.—Letters from S8t. G. Altias, Greek Explorer,’’ is the modest way the greatest globe trotter of the world recently registered his name here. For verily he is the prince of all the globe trotters who have ever anchored in our wind-swept midst. Who ever heard of a men walking around the world with four secretaries? To put a girdle around the earth in three years is the self-appointed task of Mr. Altias, He has completed the circlet as far as San Francisco, where he is at present resting. If he completes his task in three years the London Sporting Club will hand ovef to him $26,000, which sum it has put up on the wager. : To encircle the globe, 21,000 miles of se? must be sailed over. This is granted in th cuntest. But every inch of the 40,000 mile. of land must be covered on foot. Mr. Altiags has already walked 23,300 miles, and ex- pects to reach London several days before the end of the stipulated three years. He started in January, 1898, from Cadiz, Spain. Mr. Altias represents three geographical societies—those of Lonéon, Cairo and Havre. He is working along a new line of invéstigation for these societies. Mr. Al- tias is a graduate of the Lyceum of Paris, and immediately after taking the degree of geographer at Geneva he chose the life of a nomad. This young Greek explorer seems fo bear a charmed life. He was with the fatal Af- rican expedition of Prince Zamorum. The Prince and most of his followers were killed, Mr. Altias being one of the few who escaped without a serious injury. lle Mr. Aljtias measures the dusty miles, from % to 40 a day, his retinue pre- cedes him by train and awaits him at the nearest large town orecity, for be it un- derstood that while Mr. Altais is volunta- rily playing the role of Weary Willie he has the monthly allowance of a bondhold- er. His private fncome is swelled by the allowances from the geographical societies and the European newspapers with whom he corresponds. The sum total is $1100, not the least of which the four secretaries in his train enjoy. heir duties are to com- pile his notes and attend to his correspond- ence. ‘The explorer has so far walked through Spain, France, Belgium, Hollland, Switzer- land, Italy. Austria, Hungary, Bulgaria, Roumania, Sweden, Norway, Denmark, Russia and the United States. After Mr. Altias leaves San Francisco his first stopping place will be Japan, then China and the Philippines, Australia, South America and India are the countries yet to be walked through. Mr. Altais speaks 12 languages fluently and his polyglot attainments help to lessen the discomforts of traveling. With a dozen languages at command he need never pug- gle over a bill of fare, be it in any land whatever. Mr. Altais {s a very young man, midway in the 20s. He is of medium bulld and fair of complexion, punctuating his every wo with nervous gestures that bespeak the for- eigner. His English is fluent, albeit some- what ragged at the edges. The twist of thought, turn of words and accent bear the Parisian rather than the Grecian stamp. Mr. Altias has had many hairbreadth es- capes and perilous adventures on this walk around the world. The following, written by Mr. Atlas himself, ig but one of many: “IT started from Constantinople on May 21 1896, proceeding toward the interior of Oriental Roumelia, accompanied by my sec- ret and my two faithful dogs, Cerver and ector. I was followed y twelve mounted constables lly appointed by the Turktsh r the security of our lives. We reached the small town of Dercos, forty-five kilometers distant from the Bosphorus shore, the seat of the important woterworks supplying the Turk- ish capital. “After a short halt we proceeded through Karagiakiol, Vizo, Samakoro and Grammat- icovo, where we took provisions for five days. the 2th inst “On we made our way through the rough, uninhabitable forest of the mountains of Strandja.

We decided to sten our animals and climb up the trees to escape inundation. The air wag rent by the shrill cries of the jackels, the wolves and the black bears. We feared for the safety of our horses’ lives as well as our own. Only the rapia firing of soldiers’ guns kept off these wild beasts. The frightened neighing of the horses, mingled with the other sounds, made all nature seem one weird discord, While climbing up the trees I had the misfortune to break my compass. In spite of this accident the continuous rain and @ thick fog, which hung heavy, we made up our minds to proceed further on rather than to remain on the fir trees in a mos uncomfortable position. Guided by dark lanterns, we continued our trip as best we could, in and out the dense forest, plunging into muddy ground, as the entagled branches prevented my escort riding on horseback. We wandered like this during four long days. According to my calcu- lations, this interminable forest ted into the Bulgarian village of Allan-Kairak. But the fifth day passed without finding any track leading to the open country or the village. I was unable, owing to my broken compass, to ascertain the geological posi- t'on, but 1 carefully concealed the fact from the Turkish guards, as I dreaded an outbreak should they distrust my skill as an explorer. We were 1800 meters above the sea level, amidst a deep cloud of fog. We were beginning to suffer from hunger, exhaustion and want of sleep. “Our last short allowance of food. was Spent, the weather was as stormy as ever and my escort began to grumble. The cor- poral, Aly, threateningly asked me when we would see the end of our miseries, ‘I endeavored toquiet them with in- rénious reasons. The seventh day came \d we were a$ far as ever from escape. he corporal, Aly, showed plainly that he and his men were losing their patience. “Of course, had these fanatics not ob- jected to eating horseflesh their hunger could have been satisfied. but knowing very well the superstitions of the dis- ciples of Mahomet, I da not even pro- pose such violation of their faith. Like- wise, I myself, the secretary and the two dogs were compelled to fast, otherwise the Turks would have killed ug on the spot. “The eighth day arrived and after three hours’ walk the Corporal, backed by his sol- diers, stopped and, addressing me roughly, said: ‘Where are we and where are we go- ing to? We cannot resist any more; we are worn out. But before we resign ourselves to die you will pay dearly for our suffer- ings.’ { realized then in a glance my hope- less situation, but I replied to them with a bold voice; know very well where we stand and I can assure you that by to-mor- row morning we will reach our destination; if not, I leave to your discretion my life.’ “The Corporal and all the men accepted these conditions and we proceeded desper- ate on our way. “The next day we were march! pain- fully along, making hardly one kilometer per hour. was completely exhausted.

A bullet from my revolver passed through his shoulder, felling him to the ground. “That moment, as if in answer to the shot, a trumpet’s Diast rang out on the af- frighted air. It stayed the murderous hands of the Corporal’s soldiers, who were pre- pared to avenge their leader. A few sec- ond later we were 4 yer by a Bulgar- fan detachment of soldiers, commanded by Lieut. Penniff. who was sent by the au- thorities to our rescue. ‘We were at a distance of five kilometers from Allan-Kairak, where we obtained food and shelter. CLOSED HIS NEBRASKA TOUR.

REMARKABLE ACCIDENT. Foundryman of Great Strength Pain- fully Crushed by a 4200 Pound Beam That Fell on Him. — An tron beam, weighing 4200 pounds, fell on Lawrence Weckman and he remains to tell how the accident happened. At the City Hospital, where he now is, the physicians marvel that he was not crushed to death, yet they say he is going to recover. Weckman, who is 36 years old, was em- ployed at the Union Iron Foundry, Second and Barry streets, He lives at 908 North High street. He has been loading iron beams on_ to freight cars and wagons for 10 years. muscles ‘bevame rigid from the work, and he was regarded as the strong man at the foundry. A few days ago a wagon belonging to the St. Louis Transfer Co. stopped at the build- ing and the foreman ordered the workmen to load seven 2-inch beams on to it. This beam is @ feet long and weighs 7 pounds to each width. Lawrence took his place in the center, where the greatest strength is require Ten others assisted. The beam was lifted and fastened to the rope of a derrick, the men holding it in position. As it swung out the rope broke and the massive piece of iron fell on Weckman’s body. His leg was crushed and his side terrib! bruised. For 15 seconds, that seemed aS many hours, the beam pressed against Weckman’s limbs. “What surprised me,” he said to the Post-Dispatch, ‘‘was that I didn’t feel any pala for the moment. My left leg was just ike it was asleep. Then my side began to ache and I thought every bone in my body was broken.’’ Dr. Nietert thinks the leg may not have to be amputated, but of one thing he fs certain: That Weckman wil] get well and that the ordeal he underwent, without fa- tal resulta, is the most remarkable that pas come under his observation for some me.

Schooled by Corbin, the War Minister Is Learning to Sit in the Saddle Without Getting Sea- sick, Special Correspondence of the Post-Dispatch. WASHINGTON, Oct. %.—The riding horse for Secretary of War Reot, which gave the Adjutant-General and the Quar- termaster-General so much concern,” has been found, tried, bought and delivered and is calmly consuming hay and oats at a sta- ble near the War Department. The wonderful combination in horsefiesh which the Secretary sought was found in Kentucky, in the beart of the Plue Grass region, and jis the possessor of a proud ped- igree. A fancy price, said to have been not iess than $500, was paid. The horse is a magnificent black gelding, ° years old, and conforms to the specifica- tions, even to the haughty mien, broad back, rounded form and gentle dispusiticn. The blue-ribbon winner made himseif at home in his new quarters cle ‘lay after his: arrival by improvising a pompadvur on the woolly head of the stable boy whw led bim. to his stail with a we.l-aimed kick. On ac- count of this crude aitempt at nee een the grooms and attendants christened the arrival Aguina:do. This name does not suit the Secretary amd he is seeking a suitable one and will Willingly ‘receive suggestions from friends, barring three names: Embalmed _ Beef, Shafter and Otis. Something ciassic is desired—like, say, Vulean, D’Artagnan, Ruy Blas or perhaps Rosinante. Kxpansion just now has the call on the names suggested, its appropri- ateness lying in. the fact that this hobby is ridden by the administration. Secretary Root, the Adjutant-General, the Quartermaster-General and a number of army officers have inspected the horse, and are agreed that it is the best that has trud the asphalt of Washington in many years, Secretary Root was fortunate in securing the offices of Adjt.-Gen. Corbin in his days of trial in learning to ride. Gen. Corbin is a magnificent horsemen, and owns, with the possible exception of Secretary Root, the finest riding norse in the city. Under his skillful aid horse and rider are ex- pected to graduate into: the high-school class. As Gen. Corbin was to act as chief of Stafl to Gen. Miles in the Dewey parade, Secretary Root placed his horse at the disposal of the Adjutart-General to ride in the parade and get a line on his charac- ter, he having lost the one given him in Kentucky on his way to’ Washinzton. The horse was tried out by a stable ‘boy to in- Sure the spectators against an imitation of the Phil Sheridan ride, which would — ig} mb on agp of more than a eeting gilmpse of the superb fi : Adjutan:-General. pee on ee Gen. Corbin reported that the animal be- haved splendid.y. On one occasion, how- ever, he shied at a water cart—characteris- tic of hig Kentucky breeding. Secretary Root ventured on his first ride last Sunday. He saw the horse saddled, measured the st.rrup strapp by his arm— after the maxzner of practiced horsemeu— and calied for a soap Cox. The box was placed alongside the horee. Secretary Root mounted the box and grasped the reins. he horse moved head on. Score one for the horse. By ciucking, coachjng and pushing the charger was brough{ alongside the box again and the moywnt made. With Gen. Corbin at his side,/soothing his own steed, the pair moved off. On the asphalt ened his etride, a began to pace in step. “General, l'’m—I’'m gong,” ventured the Secretary in a seasick voice. *“O, no; you're all right, Mr. Secretary,”’ the Adjutant-General assured him. “But the horse is falling down—I can feel it,’ insisted the Secretary. “Mereiy an optical delusion, Mr. Secre- tary, caused by the ground siipping back- ward beneath the horse as he travels for- ward. Take your eyes off the ground, look ahead, and the sensation will pass away.” Up the Street they cantered, the Secre- tary s seat growing firmer, his hand steadier and eye brighter as he gained confidence. As they turned into Connecticut avenue an electric car wh zzed past them; it caused a slight flutter of alarm in the Secretary's breast, but the horse demonstrated that he knew the difference between an electric car and a water wagon On past larragut square and out the ave- nue they rode, approaching Dupont Circle at acanter. Small boys were noticed bend- ing over the car tracks. “I wonder what those youngsters are up to now?” querried the Secretary. ‘I don't know, but they’d better be care- ful, responded Gen. Corbin, “for here comes a car. “Bip-bap-thr-r-r-bip-bow!"" sounded the wheels of the car n. Corbin’s steed quick- the Secretary’s horse - reports as the strucK matches laid on the tracks by D Devil Pete and Careless Sam, the selantions pursuers of the redskins. “Whoop!” yelled Dare Devil Pete Careless Sam from the curb. Up in the air went Gen. Corbin’s horse and a horse cakewalk in double rag-time followed. The Secretary's horse sniffed the smoke of battle and ambled serenely on in the di- rection taken by Gen. Corbin, who was n+ 3-0 dean tacengas subduing his smoky-moke Sieed, The remainder of the ride was unevent- ful, except tha: Secretary Root transacted most of his business next day in a stand- ing posture, no one wou d have guessed that he had passed through such thrilling adven- ure, With a few more lessons the Secretary hopes to be sufficiently skilled to join the President, who. is an accomplished eques- trian and who longs for a companion in his long afternoon rides about Washington. A JURY'S ODD METHOD. The Judge Did Not Like It and Set Aside Verdict. Special to the Post-Dispatch. P NEWPORT, Ky., Oct. 283.—Judge Hodge. upon learning the manner in which the jury that tried Charles le Grand arrived at @ verdict, promptly set it aside and grant- ed a new trial. Le Grand was sentenced to three years for stealing a lot of brass castings from the American Bolt Works, and the jury that tried him, upon voting thet he was guilty, commenced to ballot on the extent of the punishment, the law specifying that it shall be from one to five years, and after several ballots without ar- riving at a result, it was agreed to fix the punishment by dividing the terms fixed by the various jurors by 12, which resulted in three years. The court held the jury should have continued to ballot until they arrived at a verdict. John Mysonheimer, a member of the jury that tried Le Grand, feeling that an injustice might have been done the prisoner by the manner tn which the term of his punishment was fixed, went before Judge Hodge and made affidavit to _the above facts; and Prosecutor Newman was notified that a new trial must be granted the prisoner.

The Entire Product in South Africa ‘Is Now Controlled by One Corporation. A GIGANTIC DIAMOND TRUST. [i - U | EE * WASHINGTON, Oct 28.—Nobody. knows just how much value in the shape of dia- monds is kept in store at Kimberley. Quite | possibly it is $100,000,000 worth. The com- | pany has offices in London, but its head- | quarters are in the South African city, and there, in a building resembling a bank, ' the bulk of the gems is kept, stored in the vaults. ' If only a fraction of them were offered for sale at once, the price of diamonds would promptly tumble; but the great cor- poration, owning as it does depos which produce 98 per cent of the worl@s éntire yield of these precious stones, is able to control the market absolutely and holds back a large part of its output, disposing of only a limited number of carats per an- num, The yield of the mines is about 6500 Carats every 24 houns, and the diamonds obtained from the diggings are sent daily under an armed escort to the company’s headquarters and there delivered to the appraiser in charge. First they are cleaned by boiling them in a mixture of nitric and sulphuric acids, and then they are carefully sorted in respect to size, color and purity. in one room are kept on exhibition 60,000 Carats, and, as may be imagined, the spec- tacle they afford is most striking. Beneath arge -windows runs a broad counter cov- red with sheets of white paper, upon which are laid out ever so many glistening heaps of diamonds of indescribable variety. They are of all shades, from deep yellow to blue white, from deep brown to light brown, and in a great variety of blues, greens and pinks. Only a Gozen years ago the Kimberley mines were worked as over 3000 separate claims, each 31 feet square, and separated from each other by narrow roads for haul- ing the gem-bearing earth. In 1898 Cecil Rhodes brought about a consolidation of all these properties into a single corporation, which now practically monopolizes the dia- mond preduction of the world, with a capi- tal of $19,500,000. Two of the mines, the Du Toits Pan and the De Beers, are the largest holes ever sunk in the earth, the mouth of the former being 19 acres in extent, while the latter has a yawn of 3 acres. They are lighted by electricity and the machinery used is of the most ingenious and powerful description. From the central shaft of each mine runs a system of galicries, at various levels, like so many burrows, in which laborers dig out the diamond-bearing earth and load it upon hand cars, the latter being hauled to the surface with the help of- machinery. This earth is a bluish clay, and as fast as it is brought to the light of day it is spread out over the ground. Being left thus for some weeks, though hard and tough at first, it becomes friable and crumbly through ex- posure to sun and moisture, and the process is hel apd by going over it again and again with rrows. When at length it has reached a satisfactory condition it is loaded into hand cars and taken to the huge washi- ing machines, in which, by means of run- ning water, the precious stones are separa- ted from tne bulk of the raw material. The machines are great vats, containing centri- fugal wheels, by which, as they rapidiy re- volve,' the material is pulverized, the lighter stuff being floated off, while the diamonds and other heavy particles are concentrated at the bottom. The concentrate, when removed from the washing machines, is piaced in moist gobs on tabies, where it is sorted while wet by white men and agam after it is dry by Kaftirs. The sorters work with small trowels, and not .@ diamond the size of a in head escapes their notice. Indeed, there s no great difficulty involved in this task, inasmuch as such gems in their natural state are by no means the dull pebbles they are commonly described as being. On the contrary, though not so brilliant as when cut by the skilled lapidary, they are bright and sparkling. After being conveyed to the company’s headquarters, they are disposed of in -parcels to local buyers, who represent the leading diamond merchants of Europe. The size of a parcel varies from a few thousand carats up; in one instance, a few years ogo, nearly 250,000 karats were disposed of in one lot to a single purchaser. The stones are taken to London to be cut. Geoiogists think they know just how the diamonds of the South African fields were made by nature.

It is a remarkably beautiful stone, of a bluish white color and flawless. Strange to say, this gem, then the largest diamond of modern times, came to Lon- don without a history. It was from one of the Kimberley mines, however, and was owned by a London syndicate. Afterward it was ascertained that it had been stolen by four men, three of whom lost their shares in it at cards the very first night after {t came into their possession. In 1894 the Jagersfontein diamond was dls- covered at one of the Kimberley mines. It weighed 971 carats, or nearly half a pound avoirdupois, and was three inches long, one and one-half inches thick, and two and one- half wide. A Kaffir picked it up while he was loading a cart with blue clay, and, concealing it about his person, gave it to the manager directly. In return he fe- ceived $750 in cash, a horse and a saddle. The stone is valued at $2,000,000. It is blue white in color andgefaultless except for a very small flaw in the center. It was presented to the Pope by Oom Paul Kru- ger. AN EDITOR INDICTED.

Indiana Man Who Killed a Woman Said to Be Insane. Special to the Post-Dispatch. INDIANAPOLIS, Ind., Oct. 28.—Although it had been the intention of the prosecuting attorney to begin the trial of Jonn O. Dur- can, charged with murder, in the Criminal Court next Monday, there is a strong prob- ability that the case will not come to trial. It is not unlikely that Duncan will be com- mitted to the Central Hosp:tal for the In- sane instead of being arraigned on the mur- der charge. Duncan’s victim was Mary Cole. whom he killed on June 17 last, by crushing her head with an ax. Duncan and Mrs. Cole lived in the same house at Nurwood, a suburb southeast of the city. Duncan has once been declared insane. In February, | 1898, he was declared a fit subject for treat- | ment in the hosp.tal for the insane, but! was never taken there. He left the city, about the time a commiss.on took action on his case, and the sheriff's ‘‘return’’ on the Warrant issued for Duncan’s arrest said “not found.’’ It is said that since his arrest Duncan has exhibited strong signs of insanity. He has moody spells, in which he refuses to talk abput his case even to his counsel. In the last few days a hypothetical ques- tion embracing the history of Duncan's case has been submitted to some of the prominent physicians of the city, and in each instance the opinion given has been discouraging to the State. Among the phy- sicians who have been asked opinion on the case are Dr. W. B. Dr. Lash, Dr. Brayton and Dr. Combs. all the physicians who heard the hypothet- ical question read but one hesitatel in say- ing that Duncan was:of unsound mind. This was Dr. W. B. Fietcher, who declared ' that Duncan’s mental condition the morn- ing of the murder might have been due to the excessive use of liquor the night before. It is said that Duncan d.ank no liquor the night before the murder, and, in fact, had taken no liquor for some time before. More Penetrating.

The student body, including the giris, re- sponded to the call of the President. On the stage with the President sat Dr. W. T. Moore, whose wife is the President of Christian Col.ege. This meant that an additional protest was to be heard in be- ha.f of the college girls. The Cadet Battalion marched into the chapel in military order and took seats near the rostrum. President Jesse intro- duced Dr. Moore. He urged the students to keep away from Christian Co.lege un.ess they came as visitors. He mentioned the fact that a number of the students entered the college building and that they almost destroyed a flight of steps by dragging & cannon over them. The speaker urged the boys to be more considerate in future, and concluded by expressing the friendiy feel- ing of Christian College toward the stu- dents. President Jesse said that in ancient times when a man wanted a wife he went to the woman of hia choice. Rnocked her down and carried her off.

ELLIE MAY ~ HER HERO, GEO. BAPTISTE -_—_—_—— , = —- Romance Born in Meadow’s End Has a Strange | Death in Prosaic St. Louis. Wooing of a Child by a Man Who Has World-Wide Fame as an Athlete. CHAPTER I. A Rescue of Two Lives. It was high tids The beach at Meadow’s Bnd, Conn., was thronged with bathers. The attention of the fashionable symmer residents was centered that day In a new @rrival. He was a man of such handsome features and such superb physique that he @rould have attracted attention in a crowd- ed city street. On the beach, in his tight- Witting bathing suit, with his arms and degs bare, he was the cynosure of all eyes, «He was George Baptiste, the St. Louis ath- lete and wrestler. Among the bathers was a black-haired rl of 13. She was pretty. Her skin was elicately bronzed by the sun and the salt sea waves. An active life out-of-doors had developed her beyond her years. She looked with unveiled admiration at the splendid go te of the athletic swimmer. The tide began to ebb. Two of the bath- ers, a boy and a young girl, were clingin to a log where the water was shallow, an splashing spray over each other. In their gest they did not know that the water GDRORGE BAPTISTE. was receding. Slowly at first then more swiftly, the undertow carried the log to which the two young bathers were ag | and floated it out where shallows change to depths. In an interval of ‘thelr gambols they heard warning shouts from the-shore, They (oopnd aro ng quic ‘and gpw that they ad floated far. e log was carrying them swiftly toward the deep sea. Their peril was reciaied on shore, but @mong the fashionable colony there was not a swimmer so strong that he could; eave their lives. . ; While the people on the. beach cried help- lessly and wrung th Hos George Bap- tiste threw himself*i e water one. oon skimmihk eagerly and prayerfully he reached the floating log. hey saw him take the half- fainting girl on his back and with strong strokes battle his way back against the tide toward the shore. He handed her into the hands of her relatives at the water’s edge and dashed back into the waves. y that time the log with the boy on it Was out wheré the breakers rolled: high Only now and then could his white face and outstret¢hed hands be seen, as for a instant the log wae tossed on the crest o @ wave. They knew the force of those waves, the people who stood watching there, and thev did not think when Baptiste started on his second trip that he, eould ever cet back with or without the boy, But he reached the log just as the boy’s strength was all but. spent and brought him, after a hard fight with the breakers, safely to the shore. CHAPTER II. Nellie ‘lay Kyle’s Hero. George Baptiste was the hero of Mead- ow’s End, The next day everybody at the @easide resort was talking about his brav- ery and his prowess. To the black-eyed girl he was thrice a hero. Baptiste had gone Bast for sea bathing. A friend of his in New York, who thad been to Meadow's End, persuaded him to. go there. The life-saving incident, which oc- @urred during the first few days of his stay, brought him the acqaintance of everybody at the place. Always fond of chii- dren he soon became the play-fellow and the protector of all such in the place. As @ result of the narrow escape of the two, who were saved by Baptiste, for a time mone of the children were permitted to go in the surf, except when some of their elders Were at hand to guard them from danger. The rule was set aside, however, Whenever Baptiste went into the water. ~The children watched for him, and as soon as he peared in his bathing suit they Tan to their homes and their mothers put thelr bathing suits on them and sent them down to the beach without a misgiving as to their safety. Baptiste was their brobdignagian play- fellow. He tossed them in the big waves like s9@ many corks. They never tired of the game and no more did’ he.

Strange Stories Told by Her When After a Brief Honey- moon She Returns Home. turn to his business in St. Louis the little girl was disconsolate. To comfort her Bap- tiste tol@ her she must write to him and he would write to her. She wrote him art- less letters, sometimes giving chaste ex- eeree to her childish admiration of im, but oftener telling him the news of Meadow’s End. And he, business man and man of the world as he was, a bachelor who had never given the subject of mar- riage a serious thought, was pleased. He looked on himself as a sort of an adopted big brother of the little girl 1400 miles away by the seashore. It was in the summer of 1895 that he had first gone to Meadow’s End. The fol- lowing summer and the summer after that he went back. He liked the place, he liked the salt water bathing, he liked the chil- dren and he :iiked Nellie May Kyle. Each summer he spent from six weeks to two months there. During the long in- terims he and Nellie exchanged letters. His were always indulgent and filled with the sort of nonsense which he thought would entertain her. There were probably moanings in hers which he never dis- cerned. So entirely complacent were his feelings for he: that summer before last he did not take the trouble to go to Meadow’s End. She chided him a great deal for that, but in her chidings he réad nothing except the disappointment of a child who had been cheated out of an anticipates romp. While last winter still lingered her let- ters began to come more frequently, In each one she begged and urged him to come to Meadow’s da the coming summer. He wrote back to her that he did not see how he could, as his family was going eae? for almost the entire summer and he would have to stay at home and attend to the business. That only caused her to be- come more importunate. In one of his letters he wrote something, which showed that he still regarded her as a little girl. It may have pained her. She wrote back and reminded him that she was no longer a child, that she was, in fact, all of 17 oats old and quite a woman. When he read that he iaughed aloud. The suggestion of dignity, on the part of his little friend, was nNdiculous, Then he be- came serious. He sat and thought a long time with the letter in his hand. There came a revelation to him, which would have come to a more susceptible man and a man less set in his bachelor ways, a long time before. He recalled that when he was at Meadow’s End two years before that the little girl of the sea was developing very papidly into a most comely mermaid. He did some were! A ye. It occurred to him that if. he should not now and then receive letters from Nellie Kyle and look forward to going to Meadow’s End at long intervals that life would be somewhat dismal. Before he eet that night he wrote a letter to Nellie Kyle. He told her that if it were possible he would make, at least, a hurried trip. to Meadow’s End late in the summer. e wrote some other things wihich probably ¢ame nearer to expressions of sentiment than he had before permitted himself to go. CHAPTER IV. The Marriage of Nellie May Kyle. Letters passed between the athlete and the seaside girl at enorter intervals after that.. Before. the e8ummer waned he had written that he loved her and asked her to be his wife. She had written back and told him that she had loved him ever since she saw him risk hig life to save the lives of the boy and the girl at the Meadow’s End bathing beach. The middle of September the family of Mr. Baptiste came back from their travels. = geet at once for the seaside in Connec- cut. On the 4th of October they were married in Mrs. Kyle’s cottage by the sea. After the ceremony they went down to the edge of the water and the bride took a linger- ing farewell of the sea, within sight of which she had been born and out of sight of which she had never been. That night she left with her husband for St. Louis. He had told her that there was no sea at St Louis, but she could not conceive of a place where there was no salt water bathing in the summer. As the train was nearing St. Louis she asked him how they arranged about that. He told her that there was no salt water bathing in 8t. iLouls. The realization made her sad. Mr. Baptiste engaged apartments at 3809 Finney avenue. He provided everything that his wife could want. He offered to ne- giect business and take her anywhere she wanted to go. She would not go anywhere. From the day of their arrival she was a changed person. All the light seemed to have gone out of her life. Nothing he could do or say had y affect on her. She was hopelessly homesick. She pined for a sight of the sea, which she loved Detter than she loved her husband. Nothing that he could do was appreciated by her. Her love for him was dead. She begged constantly to be taken back to the sea shore. ‘We will be happy there again,’’ she said. That was out of the question Mr. Bap- tiste had business interests in St. Louis which he could not sacrifice. e promised her that they would, pass at least two months in Meadow’s End every summer. That d'd not satisfy her. She must go back to the sea and stay within the sight of it or she would die. CHAPTER V. The Separation. Perhaps they had not understood them- selves nor each other. Under her coldness and her indifference his own love ohilled. He told her she could go back to the sea- shore, but if she went she could never come back to him. Without the slightest feeling, unless it was a feeling of joyful anticipa- tion, she said she would go. “Then I shall apply for a divorce,”’ he said. em right,” she said, “I will let you get The next day he filed suit for divorce. Incompatibility was the ground alleged. The papers were served on her. He went downtown to his business. While he was away from the house she left and went to a boarding house in the neighborhood, That night she sent him a note and asked him to come to see her. He went and saw her several .imes during the week. He paid her bills His lawyer said to him: Maybe you have not treated her just right.”’ Bapt:ste urged him to come out and see | his wife. He asked her what her husband had done that she should want to go back to her home. She shook her head sadly. “He has been everything that a kind hus- | band could be,” she said. Hé has done everything he could to make me happy and contented. I have no hr tag to make er him. He has been derelict in nothing. ut—”’ That was as near as she came to an ex- planation. That was also as near as she ever came to giving her husband an ex- planat:on., Last Monday night Mrs. Baptiste left for her beloved sea. Her the money for the trip. at the Finney avenue boardin out a demonstration of affection or an ex- ression of regret. Baptiste’s heart was eavy with the load of a dead love. His wife seemed to have no feeling or emo- tion. He asked her if he should go with her to the station She said she would rather he would not. He sent one of the employes of his business house to attend to her baggage ene see that she got away on the right train. Mr. Baptiste went back to his business.

Either she looks upon her separation from her husband as a little caprice which he will forgive and take her back, or she does not want to acknowledge to her friends that her romance has come to such a sud- den end, for she denies that she has separated from her husband, that there has been any trouble between them or that a divorce suit has been brought. OHAPTER VI. The Bride’s Strange Story. Bpecial to the Post-Dispatch. MEADOW’S END, Conn., Oct. 28.—Mrs. George Baptiste of St. Louis again to-day reiterated that no proceedinsg for divorce were pending. ‘‘T don’t see how these stories get abroad,”’ she said. “I hear from my husband right along. Only to-day I received a nice long letter from him. He now thinks that he will be able.to come, East while I am here. If he does I ‘sh&lf stay longer than I have been planning to stay. I had intended to remain here less than a month, If he comes I shall stay two months. If he is not able to comel shall return to St. Louis in a month, as for:rerly planned.”’ “We have a direct statement from our representatives in St. Louis that divorce papers have been filed,’’ she was told by the Post-Dispatch correspondent. “Tf they had I ought to know some- thing about it,” said she. “I certainly do not know anything about any.”’ “Has there been any disagreement be- tween you and your husband?’ ‘‘None whatever. I came home simply for a visit and shall return.”’ Mrs. Baptiste is at the home of her mother, Mrs. C. L. Nettleton, at this lonely spot on Long Island Sound, near Milford. Mrs. Nettleton says that her daughter's story is absolutely true, and that no di- vorce suit is pending.

Barter, against whom a dozen deputies in the Sheriff’s office have been trying to get service as defendant in a divorce sult for several days, walked into the service department at the Courthouse yesterday and sat there a half hour, read- ing the papers in his own case, without his identity being discovered. He boasted of his feat to persons in the corridor, after he had left the office. He said he had not announced who he was because he did not wish to be served. He declared that he had made a wager that he could do what he had done without be- ing recognized. As soon as Chief Deputy Becker was in- formed that Barter had visited him and that he had talked to him, he started five men in pursuit. They hunted their man through several blocks, but none of them found him. Barter was sued for a divorce by his wife last week. She alleged cruelty and abuse. She elaimed he called her names and was addicted to drunkenness. Her pe. tition concluded with an averment that she believed her life was in danger If she lived with him any longer. The summons to her petition lay in a pigeonhole in the Sheriff's office for several days because Barter could not be found.

Mr. William Handschu of Forty-sixth street, Cotton Alley, Pittsburg, Pa., ex- presses himself as follows regarding the new retnedy for that common and obsti- nate disease, piles: “I take pleasure in stating that I was és0 afflicted with piles that for three fhonths | got no regular sleep; I became completely prostrated, the doctors did me no good; my’brother told me of the new remedy for piles, the Pyramid Pile Cure; I purchased of my | druggist three 50-cent boxes and they completely cured me. work and but for this excellent remedy I would be on my back. I take great pleas- | ure in writing this letter because so many | people are sufferers from this trouble who like myself did not know where to look for a permanent, safe, reliable cure. Experience with the Pyramid Pile Cure for the past three years has demonstrated to the medical profession as well as to thousands of suff is the safest and most effectyal pile cure ever offered to the public, containing no opiates or poisons of any kind, painless and convenient to handle, and being sold by druggists at 50c and $1.00 per box, is within the reach of every sufferer. Very often two or three boxes have made a complete cure of chronic Cases , that had not yielded to other remedies for years. There is scarcely a disease more aggrfa- vating and obstinate to cure than the various forms of piles, and it is a com- mon practice to use ointments, salves and similar preparations containing dan- gerous poisons to remove the trouble. The Pyramid has superseded all of these ineffectual remedies and ho one suffering with any rectal trouble will make any mistake in giving the Pyramid a trial. If in doubt as to the nature of your trouble send to the Pyramid Drug Co., Marshall, Mich., for a valuable book on piles, describing all forms of the disease and describing the method of cure. Any druggist can furnish the Pyramid Pile Cure, as it is the best known and most popular remedy for piles, and if you ask him he can doubtless refer you to many péople in your own vicinity who have been cured completely by it. , Write for Our Illustrated Jewelry and Silverware Catalogue. we ees | eee ee - ~ ee COST HER Sdo0, A Decatur, Ill., Widow Swin- died in New York. DUPED BY HER’ TEACHER. MONEY SECURED ON FABULOUS PRETEXTS. Mrs. Alma McKinney Recited Cleo- patra’s Whims While Max Rosenberg Fell Into Ecstacies. NEW YORK, Oct. 23.—When Mrs. Alma Morgan Kinney’s husband died and left her $75,000 in the shares of the street railway company of which he was President, to- gether with the handsome home, out in Decatur, 1ll., In which she had reigned as a. leader of society, she thought, as she ex- pressed it yesterday, that she was ‘‘com- fortably fixed for Jife.” But the shares fell in value in the hard times of ‘$94; then came other losses, and at last the necessity of earning a living. So Mrs. Kinney deter- mined to go on the stage, and in Februafy last she came,.to New York. She had some money with her, and her brother out in Quincy, Ilil., was ready to send her more whenever she needed it. Shwe needed a good deal, or rather the instruct- ors who were to launch her on a Drilliant histrionic career needed it. Max Rosen- berg was one of her instructors, and Mrr. Kinney had him darraigned in the Jefferson Market Police Court vesterday on the charge of swindling her. She told the Court the story of her ex- erience. She first took hessons of Mme. De ouje and purchased of her the privilege of reciting a monologue written by Mme. De Louie, called “The Whims of Cleopatra.’ Under Mme. De. Louie’s own eye Mrs. Kin- ney recited “The Whims of Cleopatra” steadily and conscientiously from February until April. She then met Mr. Rosenberg. “What can you do’’’ asked Mr. Kosen- berg, with a brisk, managerial air, when he called in person in answer to Mrs. Kin- ney’s response io his advertisement. ‘‘Have you anything you can recite?’ Mrs. Kinney recited “The Whims of Cleo- patra. It was some moments after Mrs. Kinney I am once more at erers from piles, that it | had finished the ‘‘Whims"’ before Mr. Ro- senberg was able to speak. “Don't speak aloud,’ he at last mur- |mured. ‘‘Whisper, if you must break the charm. It is Rachel, Bernhardt, Mary An- derson, all in one. The world is at your | feet, Have you got $40?’ “Forty dollars?’ “Yes We must give the newspaper men money.”’ So Mr. Rosenberg got the $40, Mrs. Kin- /ney said, and $10 reta‘ner. “Keep right on reciting the ‘Whims,’” he prescribed. ‘I'll come in after and hear you.” And he did—very often. And every time he heard her he was given more pfoney, she said, to clear the ground for the great | debut. The brother out in Quincy was kept pretty busy signing checks. It cos: $40 to g@ to Philadelphia and prepare things there. ‘Keep right on with the ‘Whims,’" Mr, Rosenberg said, cheerfully. “But | began with the ‘Whims' in Feb- qeary,,: said Mrs. Kinney, “and now it's une.”’ _ Kinney then stated that Rosenberg sald: : “You want a change. who writes monologues. sell you one for $75.”’ |. So. the friend sent one, and another check for $7 came from Quincy, Mrs. Kinney as- serted. And so on it went until Mr. Rosen- berg, Mrs. Kinney said, began to borrow money and didn’t come around regularly to hear the ‘“‘Whime."’ be Kinney said sh® became suspicious and got out a warrant for m. Magistrate Olmstead adjourned the hear- ing yesterday until next Monday, holding Rosenberg in $1000 ball. irs.

Unidentified Body Taken From the Lake in St. Peter’s Cemetery. Coroner W. BE. Rouse of Clayton held an inquest yesterday on the body of an un- identified mulatto girl, which was found in a small artificial lake in St. Peter’s Ceme- tery, which is on the St. Charles Rock road a short distance from Wellston, Sexton Carbrock testified that between and 12 o’clock Thursday night he went out to the pump to get a drink and while there a young colored woman came up arid asked for a drink. He gave it to her. She said she was going to Grand and Eqston avenues in St. Louts. He identified the body as that of the same person. In the woman's pocket was found a purse ontaining 10 cents and a few other articles, ut nothing by which she could be identi- fied. The body will be held by the sexton at the cemetery until this afternoon, and if not identified it will be then buried. It is supposed the girl jumped in the lake after leaving the sexton ursday night, but there is a possibility that she may have been assaulted and murdered and the body thrown into the lake Shé could not have fallen into the lake and dlrowned, as the water is shallow around the edges.

LOUIS LAD WAS BEING INI- TIATED IN A SECRET SOCIETY. | Gis Father Leaves This City for the East and Declares He Will Urge a Thorough Inquiry Into the Case. * ta ' Bpecial to the Post-Dispatch. | GENBPVA, N. Y., Oct. 2%.—The inquest into the death by drowning yesterday of Edward Fairchild Berkely of St. Louis, @ Cornell University student, was begun ' to-day at Waterloo. i} The drowning happened in a game of ' @port preliminary to initiation into the Cor- mel] University Chapter of Kappa Alpha Fraternity. Preliminary to the initiation proper of most Greek letterea fraternities it Is cus- tomary to require the candidates to perform certain hazardous or difficult feats. In or- der to perform these feats Berkely .was | ordered to accompany a student namfthed } Dickinson, a Kappa Alpha member, and | Obey orders to the lJ¢tter. * Dickinson and Berkely left the main par- ) ‘and walked alung the lake road toward , the outlet bridge. They stopped and con- versed for a ‘ew minutes at a pointa Litle more than a quarter of a mile north of tac outlet bridge. John Malone, of this city, @aw them coming along the road and was ' an eye witness in the whole affair. *T was talking with the man who was ‘ ploughing the lot across which the boys fan,’’ said Malone. ‘I saw them stop. One ‘of the boys pwinted across the field to a telegraph pole on the east side of the canal and handed the other a paper. They could not see the canal from where they stood and probably did not know it was there. The y who was drowned started to climb the fence. The wire broke and the boy fell to the gréund. He picked himself up and started to run across the pliaughed ground. “The boy in the road kept on toward the Outlet Bridge. When the boy in the field meared the canal he disappeared in the bushes alon: the bank. It was about a quarter of a mile from where the boy ,.en- tered the field to where he disappeared. In the meantime my man and J] had crossed the field from the road to a point op the canal almost opposite the Lehigh Valley Ratiroad signal tower. A signal man leaned out of a tower window. and shouted to us that the boy was in the canal and drowning. “We were a good quarter of a mile from the scene of the accident, but we started foritonarun. When we reached the place there was not 2 ripple on the water and no sign remained of the boy except his hat, a light Fedora with a black band, which floated on the surface. The other boy had continued his walk across the Outlet Bridge and eastward along the Outlet. As soon as he realized what had happened he shouted to the man at the pump station, near the railroad bridge. The pump man put. his co#l rake into a boat, took the boy aboard and came where we were. “We dragged the canal with the coal rake, but did not find the body. It was found later. My man and I remained on the spot for quite a while. When we came away the boy who had been with the one » who was drowned was still on the bank ‘of the canal." The. inquest to-day was behind closed doors and absolutely nothing could be learned as to what took place. Under the new law the Coroner is judge and jury, and he refused to admit others than those directly connected with the case. There is much faeling here in the matter. The mem- bers of the Kappa Alpha Fraternity pro- test against the statement that the acci- dent occurred during initiation. “There is no foundation whatever for the story,’’ said a prominent “Kap” this after- noon. “It is an injustice to the college fraternfty generally to circulate such a re- ort. JI can assure you as a member of he fraternity that the initiation includes no such performance. Some have _ con- founded this unfortunate occurrence with the discarded practice of hazing. Berkely was not being hazed, I can say on pos- itive authority. He elther fell Into the canal or jumped in. Certainly, the student who was with him cannot be blamed for his death. They were of about equal etreneth and the freshman was free to pursue his own will. It is an unfortunate thing, but it in no wise reflects on the college fraternity.’’ The young man whose accidental death is above recorded was a son of E. F. Berkely, St.. Louis agent for the Mutual EE HILTS HITS THE MARK —_—_— . Another Lot (1200 pair) Of Those Wonderful $2.00 Shoes.

Before his departure he said that he would insist upon a thorough investigation of the accident. Mrs. Berke- ly is now im the East. The coroner’s jury rendered this verdict: Edward Fairfax Berkeley came to his death in the town of Fayette, Seneca Coun- ty, New York, upon the 27th day of Oc- tober, 1899, by drowning in the canal in Said town, and that said drowning was accidental and the same was occasioned by act of no other person and that no individual or society was in any way lable or responsible for the death of Edward F. Berkeley.”’ _This verdict_relleves Cornell Chaper of Kappa Alpha Fraternity, into which Berke- ley was to have been initiated yesterday at Seneca, from all responsibility for the de- ceased’s death.

Ail | | Dp ial MOY e f }] BOER AND FILIPINGS, KNIGHTS OF ST. PATRICK EX- PRESS SYMPATHY FOR BOTH. A WELL ATTENDED MEETING. Prominent Speakers Attended and Strong Resolutions Were Adopted. Sympathy for the Boers in the wer againet Great Britain was expressed, and President McKinley’s policy in the Philip- pines, and the acts of Gen. Otis were de- nounced, at a meeting of the Knights of St. Patrick, held last evening in parlor 2 of the Lindell Hotel. Resolutions in accord with the sentiments of the organization were adopted as fol- lows: We, the Knights of Saint Patrick of St. Louls, cannot but view with deep interest the mo mentous struggle Dow going on between the heroic Afrikanders and tbe emissary of Hritish greed and aggrandizement. We heartily joiu with Michbae: Davitt, Williem Redmond and Patrick O’Brien in thelr denunciation of OCbam- berlain and this recent characteristic exhibi- tion of British perfidy and hypocrsy. We hope and trust that the sublime example of patriot- ism and devotion of the Burghers of the South African Republic and the Urange Free Siate hall not be for naught, and thelr liberties obliterated, because within the confines of their territories there were discovered the gold Teefs of the Kand and the diamond mines of Kimberiey, which were supposed by Lombard street and the Tory Government to be their legitimate prey, because the Boers were weak in numbers, isolated and without friends. We care not that by reason of prejudices inherited from their Huguenot and Dutch ancestors, the Boers have upon their statute books discrim- inations against the Catbolic and the Jew; and to offset this we point with satisfaction both to the Irish who voluntarily are fighting with Joubert under the green flag, and to the eut- spokea expressions of sympathy for Kreuger and the Transvaal made in Pariiament by the members from Ireland. We are not to be deceived by the London charge, re-echoed by American flunkies in Mogland and this count- try. that the Boers are slave-hoiders, when we know tbat the so-called slavery among the Boer farmers is a a mild and feebie imita- tion of the cunningly devised and most brutal system of slavery which the world has ever known that is carried on at the Kimberley dia- mond mines and other places in South Africa under the name of indentured labor; it being ob- vious that the condition of the coolie or slave on a South African grazing farm must be im- meg than that of such unfortu- Dates watc y armed rd and stockades of Kimbestey. in the mines We believe that it is the duty of Preside McKinley to offer to mediate between the Goeth African republics and the Briti«h Empire, but we fear that this is impracticable; for the reason that a werful section of American politicians, im the interest of commercialism, are eugaged in prosecuting a like unholy war in the Philippines, and are trying to ingraft upon our nation this same robber policy which has reached its culmination with the torles and is now riding to a fall. That iniquitous — under which Ireland has euffered and en impoverished for centuries, and which is principle of the Deciara- tion of Independence, that all just governments derive thelr powers from the consent of the governed. The attempted justification by im- perialists, whether here or abroad, of this doc- trine, reats npon the same specious and in- sincere reasons that bave always been given by Englishmen for their piracy in Ireland. We confidently believe that these dishonor- able object lessons produced by British and American statesmen muet Dring al! bonest ple throughout the world to a full realization of the fact that tong range, across the otean, government is necessarily a fraud and a wurp- ation; that for forelgnera to undertake to Morce their ideas and government upon the residents of Asia or of Africa is a palpable absnrdity; and that ite final result must unavoidably ‘isastrous as have been all e.miliar attempts throughout the ages; from Homer to Alexander. from Veter the Hermit and «our De Laon to Hastings and (tis All but the blind must see that the result has wiped owt. of will wipe out. the invader The foreign usurper may los appear to Geuriah, but he is always envelpped with obstacles and conditions awaiting the of time te his dest course 4mong those present were J. a subversion of the Baker, James P.

Prominent in the list of speakers were | Rev. ‘Father Bugene Sheehy of Limerick County, Ireland; W. P. Atkinson of Kan- sas City; Judge Thomas Morris, Capt. Mathew Kiely, P. R. Fitzgibbon and &. IL Dorsey. Mr. Atkinson, who its a son-in-law of the late Henry George, spoke at length in favor of the resolutions. He declared. the principles of the present Administration were the principles of slavery, and that im- erlalism was calculated to endanger the epublic. He believed the Republican par- ty was not yet ready to subscribe to the doctrines of Mark Hanna and his coterte In the Bast and cited prominent Republicans who were unalterably opposed to them. Father Sheehy sa'd the United States were not in a position to help the Boers since “‘we are boiling in the same pot as Johnny Bull.’’ Threadneedie street in London and Wall street, New York, he sarcastically added, are trying to civilize the world.

Alexander Holliwitz was enjoined yester- day by Judge Zachritz of the Circuit Court from operating the Hollwitz Schoo! of Lan- guages in St. Louis. The order also re- strains him from opening a school of Ger- man, French, Italian and Spanish within 10 miles of St. Louls. But Prof. Hollwitz is given permission to connect himself with any college or univeristy in the city as a teacher. The injunction was issued on the a»plica- tion of Maxmililian Berlitz of the riltz Schoo) of Languages. He claimed that Hollwitz, who ran the St. Louis Berlitz School for several years, agreed, when he resigned a month ago, for a valuable con- sideration, not to start a school in St. Louis or set up as a teacher within 10 miles of the chy. ut he alleged that Holiwitz had set up a school of his own in the pro- hibited district. Te issues between the parties were not tried, as they agreed upon the order pre- sented here as a compromise. The court was asked to put it in the form of a de- cree, that it might have the binding effect of a judgment. IN DEFENSE OF HIS MOTHER. IN DEFENSE OF HIS MOTHER George E. Choate and his wife, Mary, who reside at 376 North Broadway, fought last night over domestic differences. Their son, Newell, aged 12, went to the assistance of his mother with a mop. struck his father a heavy blow on the head with the handle, cutting a gash three inches long. Choate, senior, was sent to the City Dispensary for treatment, and his son was locked up on a charge of assault. But the father declined to prosecute and the 4 was discharged. hoate’s wound is slight. Three Suits for Divorce. Beulah FE. Keener has filed suit tn the Circult Court for a divorce.

BRYAN’S TEST OF ENDURANCE, Mr. Bryan's tour through Nebraska has special interest wholly apart from the political results it may accomplish. It §e a remarkable test of endurance. Yesterday’s Post-Dispatch contained a report of his work which points tu the breaking of the record of speech-making. Mr. Bryan expects to make 81 speeches in 11 days—an average of over seven speeches a day. During the past four days he made 25 speeches and slept but seven hours out of 60. His schedule for one day called for 17 speeches. On one day he traveled 100 miles by railway and 30 in a vehicle. These are marvelous physical and mental achievements wholly beyond the capacity of ordinary men. The drain upon Mr. Bryan’s vitality is tremendous. What will be the effect of such a draft upon his vitality is an interesting cuestion. Work of this kjnd requires a splendid constitution, fine nerves and good training, but it is a supreme test of endurance which is apt to leave bad effects. When @ man makes abnormal demands upon his powers he usually suffers. No amount of strength and endurance is a safe- guard against the consequences of overwork. There is a limit and he must pay the penalty of going beyond it. All drafts On a man’s resources must be met. Mr Bryan would be wise to make fewer speeches, take more sleep and thus make sure that he will continue in possession of the power to make speeches. There can be no doubt as to the authorship of Gov. Stephens’ Thanksgiving proclamation. a MISSOURI AND ILLINOIS SCHOOLS. » With the same number of normal schools as Illinois sup- ports, namely, four, Missiouri has an enrollment of 500 more students. But while Illinois appropriates $123,000 a year for the support of its normal schools, Missouri only sets aside $48,750 for the support of its normal schools, Again, according to Superintendent Soldan, Illinois expends $3.55 per capita for its public schools, while Missouri expends only $2,31 per cupita. These figures suggest an investigation. The spending of much —— does not necessarily mean corresponding excel- lence in education. But it is also certain that both normal and public schools must be adequately supported by funds set aside for that purpose. If the much larger expenditure by Il- linois means a forging ahead of Missouri, it is time for Mis- gouri educators and the people generally to awake to that fact. A kopje is a Dutch hill. It is going to be very kopjeish for Uncle John Bull in the Transvaal. : > i>» i a A “MY LAST WILL AND TESTAMENT,” The futility 9% the last will and testament is illustrated once more by the Vanderbilt case. Mr. Cornelius Vanderbilt manifested his disapproval of his eldest son's marriage by cutting the boy off with a million and a haif, his second son getting the bulk of the estate, and the brothers and sisters each a portion amounting to $7,500,000. The will of the father, however, is ignored, in one particular at least. The heir, who gets some $50,000,000, puts young Cor- nelius.on the same footing as the other children by giving him $6,000,400 outricht. Rich men cannot take any of their wealth with them when they go to another world. And they seem not to be able to regulate its disposition in this world. They conceive elabor- ate schemes which they fondly hope will endure and bind their children. ut he is a good lawyer who can draw a con- test-proof will. Even Samuel J. Tilden could not do it. And when the will is legally impeccable ‘‘voluntary agreements’’ like that of the Vanderbilt children, yndo the cunningest of wills.

Rich men might find it profitable, when thinking of death, to fix their minds on the fortunes of their own souls, and let their wealth be cistributed according to the law. To be sure, it is very impractical for a man of millions to think of his soul, but what cood does it do him to think of his lucre? He might better induge harmless speculations in his declining years than prepare a row for his children and fees for lawyers. >> — -— Mr. McKinley's talk of ‘‘peace first’’ is nonsense. We can have peace, and most honorable and Christian peace, the moment the Administration shall determine upon it. a . ~~ YS RAILMAKERS AND RAILROADS. The activity of business and the anticipations for the future prevailing among business men are manifest. The ‘‘Ameri- can Manufacturer” says: “It is understood that the mill3 mak- ing stcel rails combined and notified the railroad interests ' of the country that prices would be advanced, and that the railroads could cover all their wants at $35 a ton. Nearly every railroad in the country came in with orders, an aggre- gate of 1,600,000 tong of rails were ordered at this price for delivery in 1909.” The railmakers afterwards ral prices still further from $37 to $40, according to size of ord®€r. There is encouragement in such facts. If the transportation companies make extensive improvements it must not only be because they are carrying heavy traffic, but expect a contin- Vance of activity. Gov. Stephens’ Thanksgiving proclamation has not put much thankfulness into the street railway passengers of St. Louis, because they know that he signed a bill creating a street rail- way trust. a, RAPID TRANSIT FOR NEW YORK. In three years from now, if the plans that have been com- pleted are carried out, the city of New York proper will have the best system of rapid transit in the country, if not in the world. A four-track tunnel is to be constructed, beginning at City Hall Park, in front of the Pulitzer Building, and extending out under the Harlem River to One-hundred and Forty-ninth street and Third avenue. At that point the line will emerge from under ground and be carried on a viaduct to Bronx Park. The two inner tracks are to be for express and the two Outer for accommodation trains. Comparing St. Louis with New York, there is more need ° a ; - hy | in the city. New a as its street car lines. Union Station to its present location, St. nothing but its street cars. The so- capt a . ; more. Some downtown streets of this city are now so crowded with street cars that ordinary traffic is blocked and pedes- trians are greatly endangered. We must have real rapid transit for the World’s Fair. It is time to begin on the right kind of project. : With Quay and the man who signed the Allen street rail- way steal bill in the Senate with Mr. Hanna that body would be more interesting than ever. We are progressing toward a condition in which we may hope to draw upon the peniten- tiaries for Senatorial timber. - =~ S| rw Queens IMPERIALISM VS. THE CONSTITUTION. The treaty with the Sultan of Sulu negotiated by Gen. Bates in behalf of President McKinley and signed by Gen. Otis, is the most remarkable document known to American history. The most zealous imperialist will catch his breath and gasp when he reads this most astonishing document. The summary of the treaty to be found in another column enumerates six articles, the fourth of which is as follows: The United States agrees to preserve existing social conditions, on condition, that every person held in bon- dage or ownership under grant of the Sultan, or by in- dividual purchase shall be entitled to his liberty upon the payment of $20, American money, to the crown. President McKinley recognizes slavery in a territory under the jurisdiction of the United States, and agrees to preserve it. This is in violation of the thirteenth amendment to the Constitution which is as follows: Neither slavery nor involuntary servitude, except as a punishment for crime whereof the party shall have been duly convicted, shall exist within the United States, or any place subject to their jurisdiction. Did not William McKinley swear to uphold the Constitu- tion agd laws of the United States? Why 'then does he re- pudiate the constitutional provision which cost a million lives and billions of dollars? Why does he, claiming jurisdiction for the United States over the archipelago yet make a treaty recognizing the gov. ernment of a slave holding, polygamous monarch, guarantee- ing him protection against foreign aggression and promising to maintain slavery. It is a violation of his inauguration oath. But the State Department protests that, after all, the docu- ment is not a treaty; that it is of a military, rather than of a diplomatic character, as it was entered into between the army and the Sultan with the consent of President McKinley, and that it will not be referred to the Senate. The army! What has the army to do with it? President McKinley insists that the archipelago is under the sovereignty of the United States. It is governed, temporarily, by the mili- tary. But are we to understand that territory governed by the military authorities of the United States is not to be governed according to the express provision of the constitu- tion—an article provided to cover just such cases? If so we are, indeed, as Mr. Bryan puts it, a heterogeneous empire, not a homogeneous republic, and the constitution is not worth the paper it is written on. 3 Here, then, is the situation in the Philippines as viewed by the Administration: In Luzon the inhabitants demand politi- cal and social freedom and the right to a Christian civill- zation, In the Sulus,'a Mohammoden Sultan demands recog- nition of his religion, polygamy and slavery, and protection therefor as dcmestic institutions, The President makes war on the people of Luzon because they demand freedom, and makes a treaty of guarantee with the slave-holding, polyz- amous monarch. There is not a more extraordinary inconsis- tency in history than this. So this is Mckinley expansion. Is it not imperialism? Is it not military government? , i i Some of the worst elements in Louisville politics are working with the Louisville and Nashville Railroad against Goebel. In the light of this well-known fact, the reports of “desperate Goebel plots” is amusing. If Kentucky politics is extra wicked this year, it is possible that both sides have imperfections. >>> ~ ir ste . It doesn’t need trunks full of maps and data to determine the right and wrong in our Philippine affairs. Every intelli- gent, reflecting American citizen knows what the right is in the question of war expansion. What would the State of Iljinois gain by substituting Tanner for Mason? Is Tanner’s connection with the Yerkes attempted expansion suppcsed to fit him for the iniquity of war expan- sion? = =] * —— a While the Boer war has increased the demand for some American articles it has stopped orders for others. It is not wholly a commercial blessing, not to speak of its positive evils. —ooo With the debt of St. Louis growing and the debt of the State disappearing, we are certainly in great need of a better city government. = = i i When the Cabinet is not on the stump it is in Washington discussing politics.

It is to be hoped that Cornelius Vanderbilt will make a fight for his $10,000,000. Should the winter be severe, what will he do with oily $1,500,000?

It is hard to imagine how the contem- plation of unfeigned grief can in any meas- ure be a source of entertainment to the casual onlooker, Yet in our cemeteries to- day are to be found the morbidly curious, who “camp” around the open grave, wait- ing for the interment scene. When the cof- fin is borne up, they press asound and de- vour with their eyes, every motion of the sorrow-stricken mourners, and their inter- est in the degree of grief shown is manifest- ed in the sympathy which they express in commonplace one to another. The. writer has in his mind’s eye an in- stance—among many which have come un- der his observation—in one of our large cemeteries on a Sunday, two weeks ago. Three graves awaited occupants within a radius of one hundred yards. The first interment was nearly over when the second funeral arrived, and the breaking of ranks for the purpose of reforming at the second grave was not so noticeable as at that of the last event of the day. The coffin had been lowered into the grave and the services were proceeding, when the third cortege wound its way through the trees. The restless swaying of the crowd and the crunching of the the dead leaves by many feet, was evidence that for two-thirds of the “audience’’ interest had waned, for wag there not a new, ready-made trag- edy, but a step away, and so they streamed down the hill to add to the bitterness ol grief the knowledge of critical, disinterest- ed observation. Let us acord to the mourners the sacred privacy which their heart-piercing sorrow pleads for and remember that while we are gazing idly on what is but an incident of our afternoon’s walk among the trees and flowers that tears are real and that hearts are breaking. VERB SAP. St. Louis. Smoking Outfit for Dewey. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. Why not give Dewey a handsome smok- ing outfit with jacket, sJipers and a nice lot of fine cigars combined? 2 ‘i ONE WHO KNOWS MEN _ ARE IN THEIR GLORY WHEN SMOKING, St. Louis. Cupid in the Ranks. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. Among our boys in blue who left on the 2th for the Philippines was’ one in particu- lar who won the admiration of many, and his departure for the front was a source of sorrow to many of his friends who vis- ited the barracks fo bid him farewell. Among his many fr.ends was one whom he looked upon with something more than mere friendship,for it seems that Cupid sent a dart from his unerring bow which went straight to his heart, and of course there was no use for him to battle against the inevitable, for doubtless a struggle on his part to overcome the situation brought about by this fairy cunning little schemer, would have taxed his military skill to a much greater extent than a heroic defense on the field of battle. Yet we sincerely hope that ‘he will live to return, and realize to the fullest extent his most ardent wish, for we look upon him as a brave, and honorable young man, and one who is worthy of his fondest expecta- tion, and we fondly hope he will win for himself unfading glory upon the field of honor, and live to return to meet a warm welcome from every true patriotic Amer- ican. This gallant young man is First Sergeant, Company H, Third Regiment, United States Volunteers. i a A Bonanza for St. Francois. From the St. Francois Herald, Farming- ton, Mo. Of all the Missouri counties none should be more deeply interested in the outcome of the St. Louis World’s Fair than St. Francois. Indeed, the Fair would be a bonanga for this county. What a wonder- ful opportunity it would offer for the ex- hibition of our minerals. St. Francois County is destined to stand at the head of the lead mining counties of the world, and that her fame is not more widely known is largely due to the lack of ad- vertising. Our mining men are already rich in some half dozen diplomas captured at different expositions, and with the Fair so near us it is safe to predict that our mining companies would make such mag- nificent displays as the world has not hith- erto seen. By all means, St. Francois County should take much interest in the great proposed celebration, because the opportunity is just what we need to ad- vertise our mineral resources. It now ap- pears that the Fair is a certainty; it has at least gone too far to permit any back- ward step. Trusts and Free Trade. From the Louisville Courier-Journal. Protectionists who are constantly telling us that there are trusts in free trade En- gland miss the point that a trust in that country cannot carry out the one oppres- sive purpose of trusts—raising prices high- er than the legitimate natural law of trade would sustain them—because the instant they do so those laws, unobstructed by tariff barriers, operate to restore the true level. THE GOLFING WOMAN. She Has a Trying Time Because She Cannot Use Language to Ft the Case. Written for the Post-Dispatch. A certain woman tried to learn An ancient game elusive, A game which tries one’s temper 80 It makes one quite abusive. A woman i so hedged about By rule and regulation, She cannot ‘‘cuss'’ as can a man. Nor dare she say ‘‘damunation.”’ You see, she cannot ease her mind, And get some satisfaction, When balts off into bunkers fly And drive her to distraction. Now. this said woman made a drive With ‘‘form’’ and ‘‘ewing’’ most pretty She knew she'd whacked that blamed small ball To an adjoining city. But, no! She'd only banged the dirt And made a foozle neatly; And some one laughed and said ‘‘Great Scott,’’ Which rattled her completely, But she'd resolved to play this gume Or else to bust in trying. So once again she drove, and lo! Her caddie lay a-dying: But what's a caddie more or less? "IMs hardly worth a mention; So calmly on that pesky ball She fixed ber close attention. ‘‘T’'ll use a brassie now,”’ said she, “With swing and good wrist motion, “T'll bet I'll knock that blanked blank Jal To the Atlantic ocean! ‘*‘Watch well the ball! Now see my stroke, “I'll show you how to do'' —— Gol darn it! Didn't hit the ball, But broke the club in two. Stile swore some swear words (not aloud, ‘or that would be too naughty), But nothing daunted, on she went, And made first hole in forty. Full swift she drove from second tee, Proud of a score unique—- But, O, she had a beastly lie, And had to use a cleek. There's naught on earth can stop her! And nowhere could be found, Although all knew that measley ball Was right there op the ground. “Give me another ball,"’ cried she, ‘‘And charge it up to papa, For when this woman's out for blood, There's naught on earth can stop her!’’ ‘Come on!'' she cried. ‘‘I'm on the green, Stand here. right quiet by me, I'll show you, now, the proper way In which to lay a stymie."’ With stern expressian on her face, Determined not to blunder, She used the putter carefully, But missed the hole, br thunder! "Twill break your heart when once you hear The record she has made. The elghteen holes ithe truth I tell) Were ian five hundred played. But just watch out, it won't be long Before this woman frieky Will win a mammoth loving cup, Then G1] it up with whisky; And she will ask you all to join, Her whisky with you sharing.

Reports of Sales—Leading ts’ ee a Transfers of the Week—Miscel- laneous Real Etate Notes. © most important event in rea! estate last week was not a transaction but & transformation. When the announcement ‘Was Made in the Post-Dispatch Tuesday t the Mercantile Trust Co. was a new Candidate for trust functions, and that it > is absorb the Anderson-Wade Realty - agents were so taken by surprise that ft required a day or two to get settled to th situation and. to discover clearly just ? t the move meant. Mr. Festus J. Wade clears the matter up, however, and it turns out to be really ve simple one. A new trust company 1 to be formed, and instead of a title de- Titment it will have a real estate de- partment, taking for this last the oid-es- ‘tablished Anderson-Wade Realty Co. That all there is of it. The new trust com- ny will have as stockhoders some of the Pest-known capitalists in the city; but so new is the enterprise that no one knows fe who will be the directors or officers. t is more than likely that Mr. Wade, by reason of his wide experience, will be the President of the new corporation; but be- | vend this prediction no one can make more than an-intelligent guess. + The guneral functions of a trust com- pany are so well known that it is un- necessary to say of this new one any more than that it will perform all those func- ‘tions wherever opportunity is presented to ‘do so. It cannot have escaped observation /im- recent years that trust companies were ‘growing gradually, but surely, to perform the functions of a real estate agency, making loans, collecting rents and ying and selling property. The trust com- fes do not solicit the business or go after it; the business gravitates to them turally; or it falls to them by a process Natural selection. The trust companies @. not openly avowed that they were pacting a real estate business, but ‘@verybody knows that the agents have felt 'their.encroachment. The Mercantile Trust Co, starts out with the avowed purpose jot mbining and conducting a legitimate N-speculative real estate business as a rtment. It will aim, however, to en- list the co-operation of other real estate @gents rather than their competition, and age pl letter issued by the Anderson- ade Realty Co. to the agents last week ‘declares this purpose. - Altogether, the course of the new enter- . prise will be watched with interest. * In ‘general the real estate business last - Week was fairly good, and it continues to ‘improve, as the leading transfers of the ‘week and the agents’ reports, given be- low, indicate. There was a rumor yesterday gat the Lindell Hotel property had been d, but investigation disclosed the fact that the report was not correct. However, for awhile ‘‘the street’ was quite excited Over the story. The sale of the property owned by Mr. Gustave Schuchmann,on Walnut street, be- Bween Sixteenth and Seventeenth, mention of which was made in these columns two weeks 0, was completed last week. The papers Were finally passed, also for the southeast and the southwest corners of is made that a new e erected for the National on the southeast cor- i the , as although owing to The announcement building wil k of C as possession can be had; t may be a year or more, now running. “Around Benton and Clifton Heights. “Owners of vacant ground about Benton and Clifton Heights are in high feather “ver the prospective advance in values in the near future, caused by the rapid devel- opment of manufacturing establishments in that location, and specifically of the Scul- lin-Gallagher Iron and Steel Co. Only property owners living in that vicinity have @n adequate idea of the magnitude of this Plant, and of its effects on values in that Part of the city. ‘Two permits were issued recently to the company, one for the foundations of a wer house, to cost $10,000, and the other or the main buildings, to cost $65,000. Work -on these is delayed by inability to secure structural iron, but the company expects to be ready to place its product on the market by May or June of next year. It will make steel castings of all sizes, The company has 5 acres on the Mis- souri Pacific and Frisco Railroads. It has @ frontage of haifa mile on the former line, from Benton to Clifton Heights, and the tract extends south to Clifton Heights and Arlo on the Frisco road. Grading is going on rapidly and switches are being laid. Mr. Thomas 8S. Gallagher, who was for 0 ears connected with the Shickle, Harrison Howard Co., and who is vice-president general manager of the new company, declares the stee) castings can be made in . ‘Louls to as good advantage commer- cially as they can in East St. Louis or any- where else in ithe West or South; the ef- ency of labor here off-setting any im- fed advantage @sewhere in cheap fuel. expects to market the product all over United States, but more especially in territory immediately tributary to St. uis. When the plant is in full operation it will employ from 600 to 100 men. This means lots, homes and trade for Benton and Clif- ton Heights. and an active demand for va- cant property. The result is that property Owners out that way are feeling very con- fident of the future. The Real Estate Exchange.

Warrants were applied for yesterday by Chief of Police Campbell against Charles Haughton of the West End Club, who he claims is conducting prize fights at the Ex- position. Col, Johnson to whom the Chief applied, took the question under advisement, but said he did not se> how he could issue a warrant against Haughton unless he issued Warrants against the officers and directors of the Exposition, as they let the building, presesy understanding what was to be done there. The Chief says he was at the Exposition Friday night during the McCoy-Stift fight for the purpose of learning whether it was simply an exhibition or a prize fight. He thopght it was a prize fight.

Three-Quarters of a Million Shares Represents ‘he Week’s Trading in Wall Street Stocks. NEW YORK, Oct. 2.—The early advance on buying by London and a light demand from outsiders through commission houses was completely wiped out later to-day and the industrial specialties yielded easily in sympathy with the weakness manifest in steel and wire, which dropped to 4% on continued liquidation and uncovering of stop loss orders. Pretty much all the stocks of companies in the metal industry were specially vul- merable and there was profit-taking in the leather stocks. The latter were supported by the recently active pool and prices bid up sharply. This prompted some covering by the bears in other industrials before the appearance of the bank statement. But the scramble for stocks immediately upon the publication of the first statement showed that large bear contracts remained uncovered. The bulls helped on the advance and bid prices up easily and by wide jumps inthe effort to take the market away from the bears. The closing was feverish but strong and showed a higher level of prices on the day. The Southern and Southwestern railroad stock made the best showing as on previous days of the week. The bank statement is completely mysti- fying. A loss in cash by the banks was taken for granted. None of the prelimin- ary estimates placed it under $2,000,000 and most of them put it ‘at over $3,000,000. In- stead, it is $87,000. The increased activity in the stock market indicated that the pro- cess of loan contraction had been stopped. Instead there is a loan decrease of $4,766,- 9). Bear traders ‘were confident that cash in the banks would fall below the legal reserve requirements. The surplus is more than doubied by reason of the reduction in requirements by loan contraction. No sat- isfactory explanation is available of the surprising recuperation effected by the banks during the week. Dealings in stocks have been on a greatly increased scale during the week, the total sales running to near 750,000 shares on sev- eral days against a prevailing daily ave- rage for some time past of less than &0,- 000. The. market has broadened, the active list being more than double in length and many obscure stocks coming forward into activity at advuncing prices. The disposi- tion has been to advance, the opposing factors being the stiffness of the money market, and the weakness of some of the ‘““‘green’’ industrials, with mo dividend record yet made, The growth of a new demand for stocks during the week has been availed of to take profits by those who have ‘been pick- ing. This amount, small as it seems in comparison with the usual excess, is still the largest reported since the opening of September. To what extent the statement reflects the actual condition of the banks cannot be determined. Certainly the known movement of money Over the past six days has not been in favor of New York either on treasury or interior account, and the sudden rise in call loans Friday does not seem consistent under the circumstances. The interior is Still drawing on this center and the banks have also lost to the treasury. The banks, while they are stronger in reserve than at the close of the previous week, have re- couped at the expense of outstanding com- mitment loans, having been contracted $,- 766,900. This process has been followed now with but brief intermission for a period ex- tending back to July and the shrinkage from the high point of the year is no less than $98,000,000. On July 8, when loans and deposits were at a maximum, the excess reserve was only $5,000,000. How the con- tinuous drain in cash since that time has been met is easily perceived. The con- tinuance of this matter of meeting an ex- traordinary demand¥is probably nearing an end, for the normal season for a return flow of money is at hand. If the bank averages are correct the crop demand is over, but there is nothing more substantial on which to base a statement that this demand ‘has ended. The truth is that conditions this year are so widely different from those of former seasons that previous experiences cannot be used as a guide. The interior banks are unusually strong in cash and while New York is the loaning center, the supplies of money for the pur- pose are forthcoming on demand from sec- tions which, up to this year, have not en- tered into competition with the New York institutions. While New York shows an un- paralleied falling off in loans, official na- tional bank figures prove that the volume of loans the country over is larger than ever. BREEDERS’ LAW WAS ARGUED. Judge Clark Has the Case Under Ad- visement. Arguments on the constitutionality of the breeders’ law governing horse racing and pool selling were heard. by Judge Willis Clark in the Court of Criminal Correction yesterday. After hearing coun:@ on both = sides, Judge Clark announcea chat he would take the case under advisement and prepare an opinion. The pool sellers were represent- ed by Attorney Thomas Rowe, who made an exhaustive argument to show that the law was unconstitutional. Judge Thomas B. Harvey appeared as counsel for the St. Louis Fair Association, who maintained that the law was constitutional and could and should be enforced. The argument attracted to the court a large number of horsemen and bookmak- ers. , NEW WAY TO COLLECT COSTS. Circuit Clerk Troll Proposes That Liti- gants Shall Pay. A new system of coliecting costs will shortly be put into operation by Circult Clerk Henry Troll by which he hopes to collect more that is due than he has been in the habit of collecting. It has been the custom to allow costs to accrue until the case was settled when in a number of instances they have been 30 large that the party who had to pay them has been unable to pay. Mr. Troll now intends to make both sides pay at the end of each term of court and those not able to do so will have their cases threwn out of court, | STILL LOYAL TO THE DRAGOONS Ex-Sergeant John McKee Interested in | War, Though Seriously Ill.

The grain markets were exceeding quiet last week, little change being recorded in any of the futures, though these small ‘changes were usually of a bearish charac- ter, carrying out the prophesy made earlier in the week. Wheat took rather a back seat in the pi. during the week while the coarser grains | were traded in more than for some time | Oats were at no time of any particular in- terest to the traders, the fluctuations be- ing remarkably small for the whole week. There was little news from outside grain centers to influence trade and, therefore the general course of the markets was that of the foreign cities. Neither faction took much interest in this situation, and the market, not being stimulated to good bidding by oppositio trade, dragged slowly, varied by no excit ing features. | The large visible supply and Snow’s crop report were the two chief causes of . changes towards the latter part of the week, as the market seemed to feel no ef fect from the visible earlier in trade. | There was some revision of the crop Sy" ort early in the week, but as the wire Reve been full of this class of news it had little influence one way or the other. December wheat opened at 695c, and after going above the 70c mark closed the week's trade at 69%c to 69%c. The lowest opening was ‘Monday and the highest was Thursday, being 69%c and 70%c respectively. May opened at 745%c, and after going as fale as 75%c for an opening, cioseda at 745ec. Corn made some gains that for this usu- ‘ally quiet cereal were large. December opened at 29%c and went as high as 30\%c, and closed at 30%c to 3c. May opened at 30%c, went to 31%c and closed at 31%c asked. Oats in the December future did not open at all. May opened at %%*c and went to 23 before closing at 2c b. | n spite of the aecreasing receipts at the grain centers of the Northwest, the tone was bearish, but this may be accounted for in a large degiee by the car famine which has crippled traffic in that region. There is a great difference of opinion as to which faction will control the market this week, some well-known traders hold- ing that the bear movement has but just begun, while others say that the market has found its bottom and that from now on wheat in particular will be on the ump. Gan Chicago man says that the market will go to 6sc thig. week, basing his state- ment on the lar visible and the better crop reports. A well-known Sf. Louis trader, who of late has been nearly correct in all of his views whe Soe the market, says: ‘“‘I think the markets have found their bottom, Il do not think that there will be anything of |a strong bear movement this week. he 'car famine is easing up and there is a good prospect of lower freight rates, in which case I see no reason why there should not be a good export trade when prices will surely go up.’’ THE WEEK’S STOCK MARKET. One or Two Spurts, but Quiet Prevailed esa Rule. Last week, in the St. Louls Stock Mar- ket, was one with few features of import- ance, and cullness prewailed most of the time. There were one or two spurts in the way of business, but, in the main, it was on a par with that of the summer, when lethargy orevailed, and trading was only spasmodic. There was a boom in Mechanics’ Bank stock on Monday, and it went up 12 points, to 2200. This was manipulation, as it turned out later, but the advance held at near this figure all week. The bull move in Granite, which sent it well above $3, failed to keep up, however, and it slumped before the week ended to $2.80 asked, with bids below that figure. The last sales Saturday were at the price named. These were the only really notable features of the last six days. Laclede Gas dropped below 75 early in the week, but by Saturday it had recovered, and, while it was not quoted above, or even at 80, some sales on the curb were made-at that figure Saturday, when the lighting bill’s fate was settled favorable to Laclede in one house of the assembly. Edisons were correspondingly weak Saturday, after hav- ing strengthened some earlier in the week on reports not so favorable to Laclede. Breweries were in demand about Friday, and bonds sold at par, for the first time in many moons. They were stiff on Saturday, too. Meramecs were in demand Saturday, and sales were made from $115 to $115.75. The week's sales were light, on the aver- age, Saturday being the most active day, though not the heaviest. TRADE WAS THE TOPIC. Discussion at the International Com. mercial Congress. PHILADELPHIA, Oct. 28.—The Interna- tional Commercial Congress to-day contin- ued the discussions of subjects relating to trade intercourse between the United States and South American countries. Salvador Echegaray, delegate from Mexico, read a paper detailing the growth of that country from a commercial standpoint. The im- ports, he said, during the last fiscal year esometes to $107,000,000 and the exports to In a quarter or a century of peace, he speaker sald, Mexico has constructed 10,- 000 miles of railroad, has improved all her — and built new ones and has added argely'to the wealth of the country. — Miguel J. Romero, official delegate from Venezuela, read an interesting paper on “Intellectual Intercourse as the Basis for the Progress and Union of the American Hemisphere.’ Senor Romero recommended the organization of an educational associa- tion composed of active, permanent mem- bers from all the American countries, men possessed with the idea of intellectual ad- ; vancement, the material progress and .the 'union of.the American continent—an or- gaization which would devote its energies to the founding of schools, museums, li- braries, newspapers, etc., purely American, | He also advocated teaching of the 8S - 'ish language in American public schools. Dr, braham Diaz, Mexican Consul! at ‘Pensacola, Fla., read a paper on “The Trade Conditions Existing etween the United States and Matamoras.”” He said ithat a difference in the commercial sy=s- |tems, notably in the use of long credits, had i hitherto acted as a bar against American | trade. The American system, he said, is ' being slowly adopted with mutual advan- ‘tage. Consul-General L. J. Ulloa of Costa ‘Rica delivered an address, describing the their manners and people of his country, their amuse- customs, thelr homes and ments. Benjamin E.

It is found here now from two to five feet below the surface in the drift, and so plentiful that the miner who does not find it in paying quantities is the excep- tion. On the other hand, there are some who claim that the gold is washed from the sea, and that the real field or ‘“‘mother lode,’ so to speak, is to be reached and de- veloped by dredging. There may be some- thing in this theory, but the other seems to be the more tenable. The beach to the east of Cape Nome makes no such gold showing as does the beach to the .west, owing to the existence of a long reach of water or “lagoon,”’ which lies a short distance back from the sea and parallel with it. Gold deposits along the creeks in the interior are quite as rich in one direction as in the other. The headquarters of the Cape Nome ter- ritory is Anvil City—so named from the shape of the mountain above it—at the mouth of Snake River, although Nome City is the post office. While the city possesses a number of frame houses, tents are the prevailing shelter, and prices for commodities are pretty much as they are in all mining towns. Notwithstanding this is one of the most accessible mining towns on earth, as ships from any part of the world may come up to its very doors, making due allowances for no harbor and much delay between ship and shore in bad weather. Meals are from $1.50 to $2.50 each; a bed in a tent, $1.50: plain drinks, 50 cents each; beer, 50 cents yer glass, and other things in proportion, ncluding a mutton chog at $1.%—and. by the way these are not much in excess of prices at first-class places in New York ‘ity. Copper plate for use In rockers {s worth its weight tn silver, and one miner who had no copper substituted silver dol- lars for it, sixty-four of them being re- quired to properly plate his rocker, which added to its first cost of $20, made it some. what expensive, even for this locality. Labor in the mines is worth $8 to $10 a day and board, and even carpenters, about the only other class of labor, are paid $1.50 an hour and board themselves. As the days jn summer are from 18 to 24 hours hours long. a carpenter can put in a lot of spare time. Everybody has money, and a8 many Who have it are not used to it, they are lavishing their earnings by day on gambling, liquor and dance Ralls at night. Gambling takes the bulk of the ‘dust, and every species of game is repre- sented in Anvil City. As to what amount of gold is being taken out there is no means of determining. It is known that not more than $200,000 in all have been shipped by steamer and $100,000 of ‘that has gone out within the past week. The beach wg oy Sy reported to be turn- ing out about $30,000 a day, but this in the nature of things cannot continue, and when it is exhausted these men will go to work on the pumerous claims lying ba¢k from the sea and along the creeks. Here the goid is fuund in very rich deposits, the claim of Lindeburg & Co. on Anvil Creek turning out over $1000 an hour ($25,000 in & hours), one nugget recently found being worth $312. Another claim owned by Dr. Kettlesen, in one day cleared up $9000. and {so the stories go. ne may hear almost them are exaggerated the fact remains — juet now every man in the district [or a pocket full of dust and a heart full in Anvil City.

OWNS MINES AND MANY CATTLE MOHME LUXURY THAN VANDER- BILTS OR ROCKEFELLERS. He Lives in a Fortress Which Guards Rare Treasures—Even His Stable Is Paved With Rare and Costly Onyx.. MILWAUKEE, Oct. 2.—I¢ you believe one of the Romanys of Milwaukee, then the richest man in North America is not one of the Vanderbilts, Astors or Rocke- fellers, but a simon-pure gypsy whose name is simple John Smith. He lives in Mexico, is 8 years old and the owner ot countless acres; of myriads of cattle and sheep; of gold, silver and onyx mines: of railway and bank stock, and of plantations without number in the heart of Mexico's a errtl gg » Smith’s wea as never been figured up. He cannot tell t¥mself. His sole am- bition is to become the richest man in the world. And it is this hope that keeps him vigorous and drives dull care away. John Smith has no settled home; he has a hundred homes on his different estates and he moves from one to another. In each he sees what is going on and gives his or- ders. Then he moves on again. The Mil- waukee gypsy, a solid business man, who comes home now with the story of John Smith’s amazing wealth, saw him at Oriz- aba. They became great. friends. ‘God alone knows how rich I am,” gaid Smith, simply, ‘“‘but I think I am the rich- est man on the continent.”’ Smith was plainly dressed in a suit of English tweed, with hobnail shoes. But his home was a revelation.: Outs.de it was a veritable fortress with stout walls of ma- sonry; loopholed for defense, if necessary. A two-story wall inclosed it in a space as big as two blocks and a great moat sur- rounded that. There were the regulation drawbridges and portcullises. Two massive inner doors barred the last entrance. Once open it was a wonderful place, with a courtyard in the center, where layed perfumed fountains and where a autiful garden grew. The entire inclos- ure was paved with brilliantly polished onyx—the ransom of a king in cost—taken from one of his mines. Even the stabies where Smith's herd of pet Jerseys were housed had the same costly flooring of onyx. Servants lounged about, but one of the old man’s eccentricities was to have his own children wait upon him at table. It was an incongruous picture to see him clat- tering around on the splendid flooring in his coarse suit and hobnails, while a soft light fell on the strange scene shed by great candelabra of solid gold from his mines. Smith is an English gypsy. He went to Mexico before there were any railways there and was the first man to haul mach:nery from the coast to the gold mines, whic now yield him an incalculable income. He got in on the ground floor on everything that has made Mexico so rich to-day. But his life has been a series of adven- tures. Twice he has been shot down by Mexican thieves who attacked his gold trains. He was left for dead each time. All the gypsies in Mexico are wonderfully proud of him and call him “Our John.”’ WEDBING KEPT A SECRET on ‘ William De Wolf Hopper, Actor, and Miss Nellie Bergen Quietly Married in London. Special to the Post-Dispatch. NEW YORK, Oct. 28.—Word comes from London positively that De Wolf Hopper and Nella Bergen are married. Spread upon the register of the Marloes Road registry office is the following, under date of Oct. 2: ‘‘“Married this day: William De Wolf Hopper, aged 41, the son of John Hoppe, solicitor, and the divorced hus- band of Edna Wallace Hopper, etc., to Eleanor Bergen, aged 27, divorced wife of James Bexygen, and the daughter of Capt. Riordan of Brooklyn, N. Y.’’ Mr. Hopper and his bride have kept the marriage @ secret from even the members of “El Capitan’’ company. At various times they have been reported se hdd in New Jersey, Canada and Penn- sylvania. AGED MINISTER REBUKED. Rev. Jacob Van Doren Disciplined by _ the Milwaukee Presbytery. Mpecia) to the Post-Dispatch. MILWAUKEE, Wis., Oct. 28.—Rey. Jacob Van Doren of Fond du Lac was found guilty by the Milwaukee Presbytery of the Presbyterian Church, which reached a de- cision last evening after consideration of his case at length. The Presbytery decided to deliver a formal rebuke to the aged minister at a session to be held at the Y. M. ©. A. building in this city, Nov. 14. The aged preacher was found guilty of .three of the four charges preferred against him, as follows: Déep disrespect to the judiciary with which he is united; use of language unbe- coming a minister of the gospel and a Christian, and contrary to the spirit en- joined by the apostles; openly charging the chairman of the ministerial relief commit- tee with being dishonest in his promises. The fourth charge, alleging false state- ments, was not sustained. The Rev. Van Doren, at the conclusion of the session, announced his determination to appeal to the Wisconsin Synod, on ac- count of the alleged prejudice of his judges. He claims that he was not given a fair trial, because some of his judges were wit- nesses against him, and he sought a change of venue to the Winnebago Presbytery, but this application was put aside and the hearing was had. It is thought that the Rev. Mr. Van Doren will make it inter- esting for the men who have convicted him. He has been a free lance for many years and has not hesitated to make charges against his brethren of the cloth. To Be Continued. From the Philadelphia Bulletin.

A WONDERFUL INDIANA FIELD. BOUNTIFUL CROP RAISED FROM THESE KERNELS. It Comes from Seed Unearthed from Mounds in Arkansas Which Were Recently Explored by Scientists. ANDERSON, Ind., Oct. 28.—‘‘Wrapped up in this little grain of corn is a germ of life that has retained its vitality over W00 years. though the life of a corn germ is but from five to seven years, ordinarily. This kernel eonnects us with that unknown past of the Mississippi Valley, and inclosed within its nusk is convincing proof that king corn has degenerated.”’ Dr. Cullen, a sctlentist and a prominent medical man of this city, made this state- ment as he picked up an ordinary looking grain of yellow corn from his table: Con- Unuing his story, which is fully authent?- ‘ated, he said: “Just south of this city, on the Dempsy Wagegy farm, is being grown the most won- derful corn crop in the country. A few of these grains have peen put in touch with nature, after lying 3000 years, and the re- sult, I believe, is the most remarkable dem- onstration of vitality in the history of the world. The growing corn itself ita marvel. The field looks like a forest, and it will run from 150 to 200 bushels an acre. “Tt will be remembered that when the excavations at Pompeii were begun some years ago a baker’s shop was unearthed and loaves were found in the oven that were still intact, and ‘that a few weeks later wheat was found in some old jars that had been hermeticaliy seaied by the lava covering them. Thus buried under strata impervious to the elements and kept perfectly dry, the grain had lay since the lava from Vesuvius poured down and blotted. out Pompeii and Herculaneum, Ex- periments made by the Royal Museum of England demonstrated the fact that these grains had retained the germ of life, and when planted they spouted and grew as if they had been the grain of the previous harvest. ‘In opening the earth and stone works of the prehistoric peoples of this continent a great many pots of corn have been found. The receptacles in many cases have been hermetically sealed and when opened the grain looked as bright and ‘lively’ as if it had been put away but a few weeks instead of for ages. But when experiments were made it was found the germ of life had departed from the grain. “On the Waggy farm, however, corn is growing that is the descendant of a crop grown in Arkansas not less than 1500 and Choong d as much as 4000 years ago. I be- leve that, with the exception of the Pom- peil wheat, this is the most remarkable growth of vegetation in history. ‘“Fhree years ago I wags hunting in Ar- kansas. I was laid up with my compan- ions several days at a point named Marked Tyree. While I was there some archaeolo- gists, who had'‘béen studying the mounds of the valley, arrived and began work at that point... They,.made the usual yes and nothing more. Thére were many trink- ets, and deeper were found bones of hu- mans. “In a hermetically sealed receptacle they found several skeletons and some jars of corn, which was not uncommon. The corn was carefully put away. The jars were made airtight, either by the people who buried them or by the action of the sur- rounding substances. Like other corn which had been found, it was bright, dry, solid and ‘lively.’ The explorers’ confiscated thig corn, but gave me a handful, which I wrapped in my handkerchief and later threw into my hunting outfit and brought home, where it !ay over one winter. ‘The archeologists estimated that the remains which they uncovered at Marked Tree had been interred from 2500 to 3000 years. I do not know what became of the rest of the seed, but the next year the corn was turned over to Waggy and planted in one corner of his field. It was a surprise when the tiny blades shot through the ground. Mhe corn grew marvelously fast, and as it developed it showed new marvels every day. hen matured the stalks reached 12 feet in height in some cases, and they are as thick at the ground as a man’s wrist. ‘There are no leaves nearer than three feet from the ground. Three then shoot out, They are heavy and long, resembling a cac- tus leaf in. some respects. About two feet farther up are the ears of corn. Many stalks bear six and none has fewer than four ears. At this rate the yield would run 23) bushels. ‘‘Above the ears the stalk continues three or four feet and is capped by an elaborate tassel. The husks surrounding the ears are heavy, and as the corn matures they break and curl back. revealing a firm, yellow- rained ear. septionally good for feeding. The roots of the plant are long and bury deep in the ground, While other corn suf- fered on aceount of the drouth the prehis- toric corn has been green and healthy. Viewing the crop, one cannot but be con- vinced that corn is degenerating, if this was the beginning of what we have to-day.” Indiana farmers are breeding their corn just the same as they breed their stock for cross-breed effects, and the experiments are not only interesting, but are proving mest remunerative. No wise farmer fails to cross.the breed of his live stock at times to infuse new and better life. Still the majority of them have gone on year after year, without thinking that the same thing applies to beang, peas, corn and other vegetable crops. But now Darwinism and Huxleyism are being put to work in the vegetable world, and of all the experiments none is more interesting than the marriage of two kinds of corn. As a basis, it must be remem- bered that it hae been found that sex rules in the vegetable as well as in the animal kingdom For experimenting with corn it is cus- tomary to take two varieties that are as near alike as possible in their life and in maturing. Thén plant in alternate rows, red and yellow or yellow and white or red and white, whatever the two kinds are.

This will destroy the ollen from one and leave the silks to be fertilized from the pollen of the other va- riety. The row wit and will fertilize also the row from which the tassels have been pulled. The corn grown upon the row with no tassels thus will be crossbred. Removing the tassel will not check the growth. appearance of the tassel, hang like so many diminutive Chinese lanterns from its flow- ers. They are divided into two apartments and shed the golden dust through the round holes in the bottom. The silks are cov- ered with a mucilaginous substance and show a natural affinity for the pollen. Bot- anists call pollen the male generation and the pistils, with their ovaries, or tn other words the silks. the female generation of the corn plant. Science maintains and experience in this vicinity has abet that cross-breeding of plants add vigor. growth and fertility. It revitalizes and increases largely the yield of seed.

GOLD FINDS IN CEBU, PHILIPPINE ISLAND MAY BE AN EL DORADO. ONE OFFICER’S OBSERVATION, Thinks With Peace Will Come a Rush Greater Than That to Frozen Klondike. MADISON, Wis., Oct. 28.—Lieut. L. A. Curtis of the Twenty-second Infantry writes as follows from Manila, Sept. 5: “If the stories now coming into Manila are true the Philippines will experience a rush of gold miners such as not even the Klondike has witnessed. Even granting that the Philippine gold deposits are not so rich as those of Alaska, there are many other fac- tors that tend to make the rush greater. To begin with, it is easier to reach the Philip- pine gold fields, notwithstanding their greater distance from the ‘States.’ In the next place there is no danger of starvation, the price of provisions is low and the min- ers can, if necessary, live off the country. The tedious process of melting the’ earth, the long hours of labor to get fuel for the rinter, all this will be eliminated in the Philippines. “This week there has returned from the island of Cebu, the long, narrow island ly- ing to the east of Negros, some 400 miles south of aMnila, a prospector who has found indications that Cebu is a coming El Dorado. The island has not been pacified and the two explorers took their lives in their hands when they penetrated the island. Under the circumstances they could not conduct any very thorough investiga- tions. But they found all the surface indi- cations of rich gold fields. They panned loose earth and obtained excellent results, showing that the bedrock beneath was rich indeed. Colors can be found anywhere and all of the streams contain the black gold- bearing sand. Placer mining can be con- ducted profitably, but it is in the lodes that the miner will make his greatest fortune. So far $30 and $40 have been panned from the soil in a single day, but the bedrock is supposed to be much richer than the soil. “It has long been known that gold ex- isted in the streams of Mindanao, the large island at the southern end of the archipela- o, the second largest in the prone. ome Jesuit fathers followed up these streams a great many years ago. but the hostile tribes prevented them from making any | i | themselves | the tassel untouched | will self-fertilize, as is usual in cornfields, | The pollen grains are secreted in the lit- , tle anthers, which, a short time after the | discoveries.

But the rivers are far richer in gold than the Cebu streams, This would indicate that the gold deposits in the inte- rior are far richer. Mindanao bids fair to be the first tsland that will become the home of Americans across sea. New coun- tries begin with a population of gold hunt- ers. Then farmers and traders to supply the gold hunters follow them and finally | the country fills up with a population fol- lowing varied pursuits. This has been the history of our own mountain States and will be the history of Mindanao, Although the population in Mindanao is warlike, it is scanty. There is a virgin soil awaiting the American settler. In other islands the na- tive population is so great that the induce- ments for American agricuiturists are not such as to attract any one with ambition. The climate of Mindanao, although it is in the southern part of the archipelago. is cooler than in Luzon, and its rainfall is not so great. At present the population is friendly to Americans and the first settlers will have no trouble. As the country fills up with bold and resolute gold hunters, that in itself will be an army of occupa- tion sufficient to hold in awe the most dar- ing of the natives. “{[t was the attraction of gold mines that buil@ up our Pacific States. If the gold mines of Cebu and Mindanao prove to be what is predicted, the Philippines will have a large American population within a gen- eration. Gold will carry them into the southern islands. An industrial population will follow the argonauts. Merchants, planters, exploiters, drawn by the security that an American population in part of the group will create, will flock into the islands of the north, the islands where an American industrial population will probably never live, owing to native competition. NASHVILLE PENSION FRAUDS Eleven Convictions Obtained by the Government in One Week, With More to Follow. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. NASHVILLE, Tenn., Oct. 28.—There have been 11 convictions in pension fraud cases in the Federal Court here this week, and there w.ll probabiy be several others. Two more indictments have been returned. The Gov- ernment has not lost a case so far. George A. Davis, who was sentenced to 18 months and fined $600, forged four affida- vits in support of Bis mother’s pension claim. They purported to show the death of the former husband of the applicant, whose existence made her attempted mar- riage to a somier void. Alice Black, now Smith, sentenced to one year and five days and fined $500, was con- victed of a charge of forging certa.n papers in her own nsion claim as the widow of Peyton Black. She was a genuine widow until she married Smith a year ago, and as auch was entitled to a pension for the period of her widowhood, which the prose- cution freely stated, but she, with Becky Stark, sentenced yesterday, forged affida- of this city. The crime was ie | unnecessary, aS she could have obtained the pension OF proper means. The trial of John W. Hayes is in progress. Hayes is the negro who represented him- self as a Government officiai, claiming to be a pension examiner. A venerable negro evangelist Was on the witness stand youterseg and in response to the question as to whether he had ever been indicted said; “*T were indicted, bat it was while I was in my local capacity.”’ Mathey Swope was sentenced to one year and one day for presenting a false ciaim and forgery. Rebecca Stark waS sentenced to 13 months and fined $0 for forgery and conspiracy. Rose Jackson was sentenced to one year and five days for securt a pension and fraudulent claim. She h been paid $300. ohn Farris was given 3 months for urg- ing a false claim. BARONESS WILL GO.FREE. Seven Years Ago She Killed Her tT ant in Indiana. Special to the Post-Dispatch.

HAS Story of the Chamberlain Family and Their Connection With Works of Religion and Charity in Many Lands. A descendant of a distinguished English family was taken to the City Hospital last week for treatment. In appearance she was no different from the other patients, but her gentle manners and versatility in con- versation gave evidence of her high breed- ing. Though her kindred are among the money- makers of England and her second cousin, Joseph Chamberlain, is Colonial Secretary for Great Britain, Wilna Moore was forced to seek the hospitality of an eleemosynary institution, For four days she was confined to a room at Seventeenth street and Lucas ave- nue without having tasted food, save a small cracker and a single glass of milk. ‘@ered, In other words, Judge Adams will “be obliged to delve into mechanics for the “time being and master the intricacies of ‘Rechnical constructicn.

Judge Adams was asked. > *“Well,”” he replied, “it appears rather complicated, as I am required to know all about the manufacture and use of brake -beams and then to pass on the merits of a dispute concerning, I may say, their con- ‘Struction. It is a bit tiresome, I confess, ye’ we “row necustomed to these things.’’ ” The Judge has just emerged from the courtroom after listening for three hours tof : ments on brake beams. is room at present has more the appear- oe of a machine shop than a judicial tri- unal.

Beside counsel are two huge boxes “Marked ‘‘Bread.’’ It may be explained that Hielther contains the staff of life, and a urious person who investigated found both led with legal documents.

Drug: | She had been suffering from neuralgia and took chloroform for relief. The drug racked her nerves and so weakened her system that she could scarcely move a limb. In that oe she was found and sent to the hos- pital. Mrs. Moore is 44 years old. She was mar- ried twice. Her father was Elias Kaise Chamberlain, who emigrated to America when a young man and became identified with the Methodist Church... He established a congregation at New Haven, Mich.; and there the family lived. When he died Wilna was only 22 months old. The elder Chamberlain was not well- fixed in this world’s goods, so Wilna’s mother was obliged to go out in the world and earn her own living, Elias Chamberlain’s uncle, Jacob Cham- berlain, St., founded the Arcott Mission, in India, which is flourishing to-day. Subse- quently he established the American Bible Publication Society, of which his son, Jacob, Jr., is the president. Nearly all of the Chamberlain family save Elias were for- ne pe gener eee res. It was against eir wishes tha as beco eS ee nn oe s wife was rn on a ship off of Ireland and landed in adenine oak 5 months old. To Paw Paw, Mich., Mrs. Chamberlain moved soon after her hus- band’s death. Deeply imbued with Christianity and ever ready to engage in work that would tend to giorify her faith, the minister’s widow was not long in gaining sincere friends. Fhey helped her materially and her charity was handsomely compensated. One of them took an interest in little Wilna. Bright- eyed, olive-skinned and precocious, the child won benefactors who saw to it that she wanted nothing. But Mrs. Chamberlain was a proud wom- an, and would not consent to have the lit- tle one made an object of charity. So it was that the mother toiled by day and night to give Wilna an education. Had she but tn- timated her circumstances to the family in England speedy and substantial help would have been forthcoming. The slight estrangement could easily have been changed to reconciliation, if the word had been spoken. Wilna was an only child and the idol of her mother’s heart. She was a laughing, care-free young miss, and her filial love was unbounded. After she finished at the | district school Mrs. Chamberlain sent her to a seminary, where she graduated in the higher course. One day there came to the village a pros- perous looking voung man, withal hand- some and refined. He was introduced to Wilna. Charlie Barnes was 17 years old, while Wilna was just turning 16. Soon they became sweethearts, A year passed an Wilna Chamberlain was his bride. Barnes was budding into manhood, and he felt new cares when his father told him to assume full charge of the hardware business. Wil- na was a handsdéMe matron. For a while all was lovely as a summer’s day. Then came business reverses and Charles lost heart. He died and his widow was left pen- niless. Meantime her mother had married and they settled in another locality. “I'll become a nurse,’ said Mrs. Barnes and she procured employment at a hospital in Chicago. There she earned enough to pay her way through the Charles ullis Faith Training Institute at Boston, Mass, At the completion of her work there, which occupied three vears, she started West- ward. As the train pulled out of the station she was approached by an elderly gentie- man, who asked her to what point she was bound. She replied, and they engaged in a bplef interchange of ideas. They were about to part when the old man tnquired her name. The man was Jacob Chamberlain. Jr. The meeting resulted in Mrs. Barnes secur. ing a position with the American Publica- tion Bureau. She located in Chicago and pereses her work as trained nurse there, n addition to her other duties. | Joseph Moore was Wilna’s second hus- band, She was nearing her #th year when he parsed away.

Try as_ she would, she could not shake off the terrible monster, but she never despaired. Her prayers, she was sure, would be an- swered. She was obliged to give up her church work and lived for three years in almost solitary confinement. A year ago Wilna Moore’s prayer was answered. She trusted solely in God, she says, and knew the joyous day would ar- rive when she would be free of the habit. During. the last few years Mrs. Moore has lived in St. Louis. Last summer she conducted a gozpel t2nt meeting at i'wen- ty-second and Locust streets. Assisting her was Henry Pelfiey. It is some time since Mrs. Moore has geen her mother, who is at present living in Bristol, Cal., and she does not know where Jacob Chamberlain Is. Despite the prestige her family connec- tions on the other side of the water might give her, the woman has no desire to get into communication with them. She says she is content as she is. Again she asserts the mother’s pride by declaring she would not accept favors either from relatives or friends. Her visit to the hospital, Mrs. Moore says, was a divine inspiration. As she re- marked this a small girl, clad in a light dress, ran through the ward. “Young as she appears, that poor child is old in the ways of the world,’ said Mrs. Moore. The youngster referred to is Stella Wall, aged 9, who lived with her step-parents at Seventh and O’Fallon streets. Stella has been arrested frequently for running away from home. “I’m going to have her sent to the Chris- tian Home at Scott, Mo.,’’ said Mrs. Moore, where she will be well cared for and have a chance to make something of herself. From the few inquiries I have made, udge the child’s parents cannot care for er. “T have worked for many St. Louis fam- ilies as'a trained nurse,’’ she continued, “and was until recently employed at Mrs. Rainwater’s. I hope to renew my religious work just as soon as my health will per- mit.”’ Mrs. Moore appears older than she really is. There are lines of worry on her face. But she has a pleasant word even for those who have not treated her kindly. She says her principle is to smile at fll luck. She adds, too, that there is luxury in doing good.

Being Only 14 Years Old Judge Adams Reduced Oscar McKinney’s Sen- tence to the Reform School. “ The youngest prisoner ever arraigned in the Federal Court of this district was be- fore Judge Adams yesterday. The grandjury had indicted Oscar Mc- Kinney on a charge of burglary. It was claimed he had ‘broken into the postoffice at Charleston, Mo., and carried away three lettersl one of which contained $1. The boy is 14 years old. He approached the judge tremblingly and said: ‘I guess l’ll plead guilty, because I know it won't do me any good to tell lies.’’ The court evinced sympathy for the youth- ful law breaker and he was asked what led him to steal, ‘*Well, I don’t know,” he answered, witha tremor in his voice. “The other fellows jest told me it was an easy way to get money and I believed them.’’ If ever a boy was repentant Oscar Mc- Kinney seemed thoroughly so at that mo- ment. The tears came to his eyes and he gave the judge a piteous look. Judge Adams can appear very stern when he wants to, but there was benevolence itseif in his voice as he passed sentence on Oscar. “You have done wrong and though you are young you apparently were aware of the offense you were committing. I will have formal order entered in a few days that you be confined in the Reform School until you are 21 years old. Try to do what is right and act like a little man and then you will have the same chance as other boys who have not been so unfortunate and so quick to yield to temptation.”’ Oscar may have been the leader of his set at Charleston and dime novels may have in- spired him with the courage of a Jesse James, but the court’s words seemingly sent terror into his heart. He couldn't speak. The lump had risen into his throat and he turned away. One of United States Marshal Bohle’s deputies escorted him to a seat, where the little convict cried in anticipation of the home that awaited him.. It is said that those to whose care he was entrusted at home could do little with him. He was sowing this wild oats and was always anxious to play a superior game of conquer leader. He could swim a pond, strip a neighbor’s peach trees and ciimb a barbed wire fence with more agility than his com- panions. He soon came to be regarded as a champion in the village, and when anyone, large or small, obtained the mastery over Oscar McKinney the town folks would say: “Wait; the champion will get even with him some day.” At first Oscar’s tricks were looked upon as humorous, or rather cute, and when he accomplished some daring feat he was patted on the back. Robbing a postoffice didn’t seem a great crime in Oscar’s mind; the gang would rejoice at his nerve, and, fearing his pugna- cious qualities, would hesitate to tell on him. Therein Oscar was mistaken. The Postmaster and his: family were asieep when Oscar pried open the window with a hatchet. There was a handkerchief over his eyes, and he carried an ample sup- ply of weapons in case he was interrupted. Once inside, the rest was easy. He passed out, and still the Postmaster slumbered, Back to the farm houe went Oscar, and, removing his shoes, creft softly up the stairs to bed. For days the robbery was the talk of Charleston. Suspicion fell on Oscar. His supposed friends had proved recreant. He was brought to a prompt realization of his of- fense and a prison cell awaited him. He will be taken to Boonville in a few days.

You ask me about the probable majority. I cannot say anything on this, because it would be in the nature of a guess.

To my mind this State 1s as certain to give ing the probable result of the coming elec- tion. The figures gathered indicate that the next Legislature will be Republican.

NO LEADER LIKE GEORGE. Thomas G. Shearman of New York Talks of Single Tax. Special to the Poet-Dispatch. INDIANAPOLIS, Ind., Oct. 23.—Thomas G. Shearman. of New York, who argued a case in the United States Court here this week, is one of the most prominent advo- cates of the single-tax theory now in the country. Mr. Shearman was a warm friend of Henrv Ward Beecher, and it was he who defended Mr. Beecher in his fa- mous trial. Speaking of the single-tax movement Mr. Shearman said: “Since the death of Mr. George there has been no recognized leader of the move- ment, nor is there any central organiza- tion, but I believe it is gaining strength. Mr Filibrown of Boston tis one of the most active men, and while his meetings are not large, he gathers together the most intelii- ent class of people, and the idea is spread- fag rapidly through Massachusetts because so many of the most intelligent people are adopting it, ‘It was not the intention of Tom L. John- son to close out all his business interests and devote ail his time to the promulga- tion of the single-tax idea, as was perce It is true, he is giving much of his time and attention to it, but it Is in connection with his business or where he may be lo- cated, Last winter he secured the passage of a bill by the Senate of Michigan provid- ing that ail municipalities which desired to adopt the single-tax idea might do so. The bill was about ready to pass the House when some of the farmers became alarmed and defeated it. Mr. Johnson was at that time interested in the street-railroad sys- tems of Detroit and worked for the single- tax idea while there on business. By work- ing wherever he may be he can be more useful than in any other way. “Honry George, Jr., is working on a bi- ography of his father, and is not giving his time to single tax. There will probably rot be such another movement for many years as was made by Mr. George some 10 or 12 years aga. believe the move- ment is gaining strength through the coun- Mr. Sherman is a a admirer of Henry Ward Beecher. ‘‘There never was a man like him in the history of this country,” he said. “‘He occupied a peculiar position. He was,a man of masive intellect, and made a deep impression on all who came near him, and yet he was so kindly and charming in his manner that one never felt ill at ease with him. He was straight. forward and maniy and of high moral char- acter. I have noticed that since his death no man has arisen to fill his place. When a great public question comes up there is now no man to whom everybody will listen and whose views everybody desires as they did Beecher’s. Even his enemies wanted to know what he thought and what he would say. Every other man in our history has had a large measure of his prominence from an official position he occupied. Had Jefferson advocated the principles he did and never .been Pres‘dent, he would have made but Iitule impression on the history of the country. If Lincoln had not been in Htical life and President, it is doubtfu! he would have made an impression on Nis- tory.

The Governor Illustrates the Differ- ence Between True Expansion and the Policy of Coloniza- tion. OMAHA, Neb., Oct. 28.—Ex-Gov. J. P. Altgeld of Illinois is interesting Nebraskans by his strong presentation of the dangers of imverialism that threaten the country by the success of the Republican party. The crowds that flock to hear Altgeld are fully as large as those that attend the coming of Bryan. The Governor has spoken at many points, the strongest address prob- ably, being delivared at Blair, when he spoke as follows: “We witness in our country to-day a most remarkable political phenomenon. The men who helped to bring the Repub- lican party into being and who guided that party in its great career and through it helped to shape the destiny of the country find themselves now forced to leave it. We see John Sherman, ex-Senator Ed- munds, ex-Senator Henderson, Carl Schurz and a host of men who made the Republi- can party great now vigorously denounc- ing the executive elected by that party and declaring that the life of the Republic is threatened. ‘‘Men rarely sever thelr connection with a political party on account of differences of opinion relating to mere economic ques- tions or mere governmental policy, and when we see men severing their connections of a lifetime, cutting loose from ail that they helped build up, and raising a cry of alarm fon their country, we may feel assured that the republic is in danger, and that it is the duty of all patriotic men to acquaint themselves with the real facts in the case, and then act, not with blind partisan zeal, but with the high purpose ' of a freeman and a patriot who cherishes the institutions of his country and seeks to transmit them to his children. “What, then, is the question which has created the alarm? It is not a question of expansion. It is not a question whether we shall add territory to the republic and in- crease the population that shall be subjec to the constitution and laws of the Unit for, however men might differ as tu the wisdom of such an act they would not regard it as destructive of our institu- tions, ‘We have at different times in the past added to our territory, and in each case It was by treaty made a part of the republic subject to the constitution and the laws of our country. The principle of seif-govern- ment lying at the base of our republic at once attached to this territory and at- tached to the inhabitants, and it is to be noted that no objection was made by the inhabitants of the ceded territory to be- coming citizens of the United States. ‘Personally I have no doubt that, moving in the line of a natural = and coverer- ment, this republic will expand. It will in time extend to the frozen seas of the North. It will in time embrace the West India Is- lands, but this development will come nat- urally, will come by constitutional meth- ods, and with the consent of the inhabitants the territory thus acquired will become subject to our constitution and laws and the inhabitants will become citizens of the United States. No violence will be done to the basic principles of free institutions. ‘And I repeat, if it were merely a ques- tion of expansion we would not to-day see the distinguished men I have named raising their voices in alarm and severing their connection with the party that they had helped to make great. It is not @ question of expansion at all, because the Adminis- tration does not intend to make the Phil- ippine Islands a part of the republic, sub- ject to the constitution and laws of this republic, and does not intend to make the eople of those islands citizens of the Inited States, and does not intend to apply to those islands the principle upon which our republic rests, that is, government by the consent of the governed, or self-govern- ment. “Tt is a question of establishing a despotic system of government: It is a question of establishing a corrupt colonial syste a question of following in the wake of En- gland and acquiring and holding subject colonies, whose people shall be governed, not according to the principles of our con- stitution and laws, but in violation of them, and whose people, instead of becom- ing American citizens, are to occupy the re- lation to us that they formerly occupied ‘ard Spain. Wwe are to go into the business of robd- bing other nations of their lfberty, and it js because this must result In the ultimate destruction of our own liberties and the overthrow of our own institutions that the alarm is raised. ‘This republic has existed for a century and a quarter It had scarcely any we hens & it had scarcely any navy, it had scarcely any of the attributes and agencies of brute force upon which the nations of the old world relied. It placed its sole reliance upon the love of liberty implanted in the hearts of the people. Government by the consent of the governed lies at the base of its greatest and this great principle is more potent and more powerful than armies or navies. Now it is proposed to abandon this lofty position and to emulate the des- potic governments of Europe in a scramble on the low plane of brute force.”’ Mr. Altgeld then went into the history of the Un'ted States’ connection with the Philippines, praised Aguinaldo as having taken an honorable part, and continued: “A mere giance at the order of events shows that the reliance and claims of the Administration that are based upon the treaty are afterthoughts, and the President has been practicing a confidence game upon the Amerctan people equal to that which he practiced upon the Filipinos. Every- thig points to the fact that the policy of imperialism and forcible — of the Philippine Islands was settied upon early in the summer of 88 when the syndicates were camping in the White House and straddling the nation. ‘To still further show the 4 scheme that President McKinley, at the dictate of the syndicates, had endeavored to carry vut, I direct your attention to the fact that he had appiled to Congress when it con- vened in Seosimber, 1988, for a standing army of 100,000 men.

H. Hinrichsen of Jacksonville, who had charge of the special train which carried William J. Bryan and John R. McLean through the northwestern part of Ohio, brought to Chicago a rosy report of the prospects for Democratic victory next month. He admitted that “Golden Rule” ee would carry the city of Toledo and ucas county, and said it wag possible for Mr. Jones to 1] 100,000 votes. While running the Bryan-McLean special through the Puckeye State Mr. Hinrichsen had an 5 aang? to watch the daily life of Mr. Bryan on the cars and in the towne where he spoke. Speaking on that line he said: Mr. Bryan can sleep and eat more than any other man I ever saw working under the same nervous and physical pressure, I have seen him curl himself up in his car and go to sleep after making a speech as if he had no care in the world, and was primed for the next meeting without a m.nute@ preparation. When Mr. Bryan would come on the train from a night meeting he would strip and be rubbed down as if he were a famous race horse or a prize fighter on the eve of battle. We had to take care of him or he would have broken down. His voice got stronger every day, although he made 22 speeches in three daye in Ohio. At — a porter would be posted outside Mr. Bryan's door with in- structions to allow no one to disturb him. “On the tour through Ohio I had a hard time keep'ng committees from boarding the train some distance ahead of the place where the next meeting wag to be held. County committees had been given instruc- tions by the State Committee that no dele- gations would be allowed on the train, but they came just the same. I had to treat them all alike and keep them from board- ing the train. Some of them got mad, but there was no room for them on the train, and Mr. Bryan could not be disturbed be- tween etops. “From my contact with the people of Ohio I think we have got the Republicans licked. McLean tis playing a shrewd politi- cal game. There has been a big slump in the large cities toward the Democratic par- ty, especially on the expansion issue, and Mr. McLean knows it. At the same time he does not want to make any hurrah and brass band parade of the fact. If that was done the Republicans who intended to vote for him would scurry to cover and etick to their party. “A Democratic politician asked Mr. to Lean why he did not pull Jones off. c- Lean gave him one look from the corner of his eye, as if to say: “*What, pull off | best friend?’ ‘Jones ia roasting both Republicans and emocrats, but the Democratic papers ig- more him, while the Republicans talk back.” ,™ FIGURING ON IOWA’S VOTE. The Democrats Have Hope of Winning the House. DES MOINES, Io. Oct. 2@.—The Iowa Democrats are now seriously calculating on their chances of organizing the House of the Legislature which will be elected this fall. In the last House they had thirty- seven members out of 100. The _ reports from all the close counties indicate that the Republicans are in bad shape over’ the Gear-Cummins Senatorial fight. Down in the southern part of the State there are elght or ten close counties. The Burlington mashine has controlled all the Republican nominations in these counties in the inerest of Gear, and there is revolt against the machine influence. Cummins’ Republicans are charged with the deliberate intention to cut the ticket and allow the Demoerats to be elected. On the other hand, in the central and northern parts of ythe State there are nearly as many coun- ties whose nominees are known to be for Cummins and in which Gear people are lanning to boit and elect Democrats to the egisiuture. Under these circumstances it will be no surprise to the politicians if the Democrats make gains which may give them a major- itv in the House. he Republicans are badly worried over the situation. It is re- ported that arrangements have been made to dump a large amount of Gear money into the southern counties in the closing days of the canvass, to get out the safe Gear votes and save the 4 The counties are so close that it will be only by the hardest work that a number of them will be saed to the Republican column. Great interest is being taken in the meet- ing to be held in this city Nov. 2, when Car- ter H. Harrison, William J. Stone of Mis- sourli and Fred E. White, candidate for Governor, will speak. Mayor Harrison is greatly admired in Iowa and he will have an audience representing every section of the State. A JEFFERSON CLUB DINNER. Cafe Service Inaugurated Last Night at Its New House.

Jones Is Doing Hard Campaigning in the Western Reserve and His Vote May Be a Sur- prise. COLUMBUS, O., Oct. 28.—Hanna and his aids are ciphering out the vote of. the State that will be cast Nov 7. Their figures are based on a total vote of 900,000—the estimate ven out from the Secretary of State’s of- ce. They gave ‘““Goiden Rule’ Jones 100,- 000, and this left 800,000 votes to be divided between McLean and Nash, and they gave Nash 410,000 and McLean 390,000. They_took the best end of the bargain on the Jones vote iving Jones 40,000 Republican and 60,000 Democratic votes, and they turned over to McLean 5000 Republican votes which they charged up to the Kurtz-Bushnell fac- tion of the Republican party. The Republicans now claim Hamilton County. They say that reliable reports from Cincinnati indicate that Hamilton County will go Repubiican for the State ticket by a small piurality. Senator Foraker seems to bs contident that the Republicans will carry Hamilton County. Col. Dick, chairman of the Republican State Executive Committee, as placed the county in which Dayton is ocated in the Republican column. e Re- publicans admit that Franklin County, in which Columbus is located, and Lucas County, of which Toledo is the metropolis, are not in first-class shape, but they hope with strong longing that the Republicans will carry both. The Republican managers hesitated when they came to Cuyahoga County, Senator Hanna's home, but they finaily said that Nash ard Jones would split about even in that county, leaving Mc n to run third. On a basis of 60,000 in ty oy wets / they thus gave Jones 25,000, for they s d Mc n would not get over 10,000 votes in the county. The men who made this estimate said it was a conservative ‘‘guess.’’ They saia they had given McLean more chan he would get, and then they made tle conventional pre- diction that Nash would carry the State by 60,000 at least. But they are all at sea on the Jones vote. They cannot locate him. They don’t know whether he will get 50,000 or 150,000 votes. The Democrats cla their oll of the State shows that Jones will get ess than 80, votes. Some of the few in- dependent papers in the Staté have been taking straw votes, and if a straw vote is an index there is reason to; believe that “Golden Rule” Jones will cutia wide swath election day. “Golden Rule” is working into the West- ern Reserve, the group of counties in the northwestern part of the State which the spellbinders call ‘“‘the Republican Gibral- tar."" Reports from this reserve say that Jones sentiment is heneycombing that sec- tion, that the Jones strength is increasing and that the situation ts full of peril to the Republicas. These reports follow each other in rapid guccession from Youngstown, eee Niles, Ashtabula, Akron and other cities. This group of counties gave a Republican plurality of 17,000 in the gubernatorial elec- tion of 1897, and if “the man without a party” is — the vote which reports ve him in the Western Reserve, the arger proportion of that vote will come from the epublicans. Coupled with the reports of the owth of the ‘“‘non-partizan’’ movement in the ‘‘Republican Gibraltar” are re s that a light vote will be cast there next month, because the normal Republican majority is so large. There is no particular partisan fight over the county tickets; hence there is nothing of a local character to induce Republicans to come out and vote the full party strength. Judge George K. Nash, the Republican nominee for Governor, spends next week, the last of the campaign. in the Western Reserve, ana the epublican committee will undoubtedly do all that is possible to stir up the Republicans and awaken them to a realizing sense of their duty to the Republican party. he last time Ohlo elected a Democratic Governor was in 1889, when James FE. Compu defeated Joseph B. Foraker, ’and politicians say Foraker was beaten ‘‘be- cause the Western Reserve fell down.”’ President McKinley's home town of Can- ton is in the Western Reserve, and the Nineteenth Congressional District, repre- sented in Congress by Col. Charies Dick, chairman of the Republican State Execu- tive Committee, is a Western Reserve dia- trict. The. Republican committee has raised the warcry of “Stand by McKin- ley,”” and the Republicans cannot afford to permit a man who is running on a “no arty” platform to cut down the Repub- ican vote in the President's home district. The Western Reserve is full of rolling mills and other tron manufacturing es- teablishments, and many of the workers are Welshmen. The railroad vote is heavy and so is the Polg#h and Bohemian vote, and it is reported that the Welsh vote, which heretofore has been Republican, will go to Jones, and that he will get the bulk of the railroad vote, claimed by the Republicans. The Polish and Bohemian votes cast for Jones will into tha Democratic strength. SHERMAN FOR NASH. Chairman Dick Produces Letters From the Statesman. COLUMBUS, O., Oct. 28.—The publication to-day in various newspapers of what pur- ported to be an interview with former Sec- reary of State John Sherman, attacking Senator Hanna, Judge Nash, the Repubii- ean candidate for Governor, and the Ad- ministration, led Chairman Dick to make ublic some recent correspondence with Mr. Sherman concerning the Ohio cam- align.

The Boys From Columbia Meet the Ie. cals on Their Own Ground and Beat Them Badly. The eleven of the Missouti University lowered the colors of the Christian Broth. ers’ College on the college campus Saturday afternoon. ‘rhe score was 29 to 0. Saturday was an ideal football day, and over 200 persons journeyed to the college grounds to witness the game. All went ex- pecting a good game and were not disap- pointed. The game was one sided, but the Missouri boys played grandly, and- gave the S8t. Louis enthusiasts a taste of real football.

Their work, in- every department of the game, was 4 fect. Cc. B. C.’s game, on the other hand, was very poor. Their team work was bad. The man with the ball would seldom have any interference, and, when he did, it was only by accident. The backs did the only fair work on the team. Hardman’s work was snappy, but he seems to have lost his nerve, and his in- terference and tackling was, at times, very weak. Patrick’s work was the one redeeming feature for the C. B. C. eleven, His &- yard run was the longest of the day. He was worked hard, and was so exhausted at the end of the first half he was forced to retire. Swain, the old reliable, fell down Saturday. His 79g though good, helped Cc. B. C. but little. His tackling was the worst of the team. He missed two open tackles, something that should never have happened, Not a man on the C. B.

He is a nervy boy, and, despité the fact that ‘he only weighs 150 pounds, he is said to be the strongest man on the team, Thurman’s ki the best ever seen on a local gridiron. The work of McCaslin, McAllister and Houx deserves mention. Saunders’ right was a® revelation.

A single of- Rcial cannot watch all the plays of a game from a point of vantage. It is a physical impossibility and it will be false economy to reduce the staff from 12 to six members to curtail expenses. It Is not true that 12 competent umpires cannot be secured. If the game were conducted on a high plane, if the typoreses | of the ague would en- force the constitution, honest and capable umpires could be obtained and retained, nd what is more there would be compe- tition for positions which under the regime of rowdyism, are not considered desirable by self-respecting and well-qualified men.

B.—The fight fer %,000 francs between Charlemont, the French champion, and “Jerry’’ Driscoll, former ¢hanipion of the British Navy, this afternoon, resulted in a victory for the former. There was a great crowd present and the fighting was hot fur six rounds. | In the seventh round Driscoll was knocked out by a smashing kick in the groin, the Frenchman being allowed to use his feet, in accordance- with the Freneh custom. The seats sold as high as $0 each. The Englishman and several Frenehmen rotested against the decision being given n favor of Charlemont, but the majority greeted the announcement with wild outs of triumph and cries of ‘‘Fashoda.

A joyful yell of “Vive la France” came from the crowd and a number of péople rushed into the ring and took Charlemont in their arms and kissed him and pro- claimed him the victor. The fight lasted an hour. Charlemont takes the 26,000 francs. THE PUGS AT SIOUX CITY. Casper Leon, Billy Murphy and Others to Box There. Special to the Post-Dispatch. - BIOUX CITY, Ie., Oct. B.—Larry Gleason of Chicagé, Charley Mason of San Fran cisco, “Australian” Billy Murphy of Cin- cinnati and Casper Leon of St. Louis have been matched here Sor fights Nov. 8 and 17. The original intention was to put both mills on ov. 8, but Leon was unable to make that date, so the tg & on bout was set for a fortnight later. Both will be under the auspices of the Lenox Athietie Club, and the management of Pugilist Tom- my hite. They will be for 6 rounds to decisions on points. Gleason is a strong young fighter of no reat reputation as yet, and the impression s that Mason will best him. The latter has a number of draws With first-class men to his credit and is said to be exceptionally fast and clever. The men will wei epoout 126 pounds. The purse will be for The Murphy-Leon, match is attracting more attention. “Aus:ralian’’ Bill has been regaining something of his old form of late, and he fought here three times in as many months in much the same manner as when he was the world’s featherweight champion. The termination of all his milis has been unsatisfactory, however, The first was with Patsy Magner of Yankton, 8. D tralian. It was so wicked that the police stopped it early in the second round after repeated knockdowns and two clinches, in which both men tumbled bodily over the qudlence Mos: people thought Murphy would have won, but the go was too short to be decisive. The second Was with Sig, Hart. At the end of 15 rounds a ecision was announeed in Hart's favor. here was so general an opinion that Mur- hy should have been declared the winner. ne en that Hart expressed a willingness fight again. Ahother contest was ac- lied off this month. In the sixth ht hand, but to cordingly pu round Murphy broke his ri managed to last through the remaini nine and made the fight a draw, In bot mills Hart. who is much lighter than Mur- phy, resorted to runaway tactics and proved so clever on his feet that Billy was seldom able to teach him with his swings, and, though receiving little punishment bimeelf. could not put his antagonist out. Leon is about his own size, and will likely furnish a standup fight, which will prove whether Murphy was relegated prematurely to the ranks of the has-beéns. The fighters will weigh about 117 pounds.

STRONG DEFENSIVE GAME PLAY- ED BY THE VISITORS. Time and Again the Illinosis Eleven Hurled Itself Against the Line to Be Thrown Off and Beaten Back. CHAMPAIGN, Ill, Oct. B.—The Untiver- sity of Michigan defeated the University of Illinols to-day by a score of 5 to @ Heffelfinger of Yale was chosen referee and Brown of Cornell, umpire. Thirty-min- ute halves were played. Neither scored in the first half. Michi- gan succeeded in scoring a touchdown within fiVe minutes of the end of the last half, but missed the goal. Michigan's weight won the game, which was hard fought from start to finish. Illinols blocked Michigan's punts five times. Michigan's greatest galfis were made through the center. There were no long runs. The ball was see-sawed continuously up and down the field, both goals being in danger throughoui the game. In the first half Illinots could do nothing againat the visitors’ defensive playing, be- ing unabie to advance the ball the required five yards in three triais at any one time. Michigan gained on most every exchange of punts, but Its line proved weaker than expected. ‘Illinois’ defenec playing was excellent and Michigan was never able to hold the plig- skin for any length of time. The game was the most hotly contested one ever played on an Ilijnois feild. LIVED TOGETHER ONE WEEK. Alexander Kessee, Aged 70, Granted a Divorce From His Wife, Aged 15. SPRINGFIBLD, Mo.. Oct.

Mrs, Otto Forster, Who 1s certainly the Gressiest woman of her age in town, will wear an Altman gown Monday night that is the most artistic black and white com- bination I have ever seen. Mis& Marian Fry, who is visiting In Du- Duque just now, will, before the show closes, air a stunning new redingote which she has recently had made in New York. The coat, reaching almost to her heels, Is of pale biseuit-colofed broadcloath, lined with heliv- trope satin, the cuffs and collar being of miroir velvet of the same shade, bordered with gray chinchilla fur. The hat which Miss Fry will wear with this is a toque- shape of gray chinchilla, having a soft folded crown of heliotrope miroir velvet caught at the left side with a cluster of heliotrope blossoms and foliage. It is a handsome costume and will doubtless be wonderfully becoming to Miss Fry's perfect blonde loveliness. Mrs. W. T. Aderton of Washington boule- vard, formerly Miss Houser, has had an elegant black and white costume made by the Vandervoort modistes especially for the horse show. The skirt is of black peau de sole finished with voluminous foot ruffles of accordion-pleated mousseline de sole, over which falls»: flaring overdress that fits flosely about hips and fastens down the front, with silk crocheted buttons and embroidered buttonholes.

Speaking of come recent reguiations in the British arnfy with regard to beards, Mrs. Kayser said: “As a general thing. the names of successful generals are ap- plied to some article of dress that soon be- comes the fashion. I can recall the time when Burnside whiskers were quite popu- lar, and we have all heard of Raglan cloaks, named for a general in the Crimean war. Miss Loulse Moore spoke of Steinkirk cravats and said: “Young officers hurrying into battle had hastily thrown on the hand- some lace cravats upon whose arrange- ment they were wont to tow much pains. Henceforth the negligee style was universal. Ornaments were manufactured upon this model, su that not only Steinkirk cravats, but Steinkirk watchchains and other kinds of jewelry were the rage.” Miss Davis said she had invented a Dew- ey bow for her hat, which had been much admired.

This will be their first public appearance for a purely charitable purpose. During the winter they will devdte themselves to such performances. For this occasion they have enlisted the services of a number of ama- teur entertainers we!) known tin St. Louis, and this fact, added to the gratifying suc- cess of their first appearance, Ort. 18, gives the public assurance of an enjoyable even- ing.

The beginning of the movement to estab- Yish a Deutsches Alten-Heim was a meet- ing held March 23, 18%, at the office of Dr. Fomil Preetorius. At the second meeting, in April, a Ladies’ Society was formed for the promotion of the fund. Mrs. Cramer, Mrs. Bberhard and Mrs. Seitz constitute the Board of Directors. The 20 members of the society. have not only collected $20,000, but have induced influential men of their acquaintance to organize in behalf of the work. A few of them have already col- ‘Jected $339, and the formal step of organ- fzation will be taken within a week or two.

ALL PROMINENT CITIZENS. Simple and Effective System by Which the Names Are Selected and Eventually Drawn, The work of selecting the grandjury for the next four years, which occupied much of the time of the Circuit Judges during the past month, was completed yesterday and the names agreed upon were turned over to Jury.Commissioner George P. Weinbrenner, who placed them in the grandjury wheel in ape Eeananes ef all the Judges in general The grandjury list contains 600 names, each of which is printed on a separate piece of paper so that it may be drawn with ease. The wheel, which is the repository of these slips, is 15 inches in diameter and has a hollow space between its sides, six inches wide. t has a door, which fits Closely over its only opening. Before a drawing is made, this door is shut and the wheel, which turns easily on an axis, is given a whirl, which shuffles the slips and enables the Jury Commissioner to draw them impartially and without any knowl- edge of what name is printed on them. Only 240 of the 600 persons assigned to Srandjury duty really serve. Five terms of the criminal division of the Circuit Court are held every year and a new grandjury is required at every term. It consists of 12 members. Sixty persons are used, therefore, in this way every year and 240 in four years. But experience has shown that 600 names will always be drawn by the time the last jury is selected, Many deaths and removals four years, and, when service cannot be procured on a man whose name has been drawn, the drawing must con- tinue until the necessary service can be made. Sometimes a dozen names must be taken from the wheel before a juror can be procured. may be used is, therefore, always greater that the number of jurors actually needed, that all emergencies may be provided for. The grandjury is supposed to have more dignity than a petty jury, and the aim of the Circuit Judges in a ay 2 their assign- ments for duty on this jury is that it shal] occur in be. composed of representative citizens— something that cannot always be said of the petty jury. The process of selecting the names for this most important jury service list is interesting. After the a Commissioner completes his canvass of the city for a complete list of all persons eligible for jury duty, who are all men over the age of 21 years, he gives to each of the Circult judges a type- written pamphlet, containing the names that his assistants have reported. The judges read this list over carefully and each, without the assistance of the others. selects the names of 100 persons, who, he _Week’s Display of Both at the Coli- HORSE SHOW OPERING, ANNUAL EXHIBITION BEGINS TO- MORROW EVENING. { SOCIETY AND BEAUTIFUL NAGS. The number of names that! seum That Gives Promise of Ex- ceeding Former Exhibitions, “The Season,” as the eociety folks of London call that period of the year when dinners, smart receptions and balls occupy the attentions of the fashionable world, will begin in St. Louls to-morrow evening. This process of opening the winter’s gayety is simple enough in its way, though to the managers of the function it represents much money and much time and pains. The opening will be at the Coliseum. At 7:30 o’clock to-morrow evening the doors of the immense building will be thrown back; representatives of wealth and fashion, characteristics of the exclusive set, will enter; Weil’s band of # pieces will play; horses with pedigrees long and un- tarnished as those of the aristocrats who gaze down on them will step into the are- na; there will be applause from the paims of gloved hands; the annual horse show wl!) be on, and St. uis’ season of gayety will be started. To be sure there have been any number of entertainments, both private and pubiic, Since the leaders have returned from thelr summer outings at the seashore and moun- tains, but they might be regarded in the light of curtain raisers. But the dictators of society seem to have agreed that the geason’s commencement shall always take the form of some function at which all the smart set may be present. As the Easter parade—the procession from church of new gowns, dainty bonnets and bright flowers have been appropriately, though somewhat tirreverently, termed— marks the closing of Lententide, so does the Horse Show formally prociaim the com- mencement of the ante-Lenten gayety. In addition to the entries attached to the Horse Show, by force of its fashionable in- fluence, there is a great tnterest it bears to the men who devote tim@and money to the development of the nob.est of all animals, Horse fanciers and breeders from every part of the United States will be in St. Louis this week to watch the various speci- mens of four-footed nobility and to note the results of the careful experience made by men who Keep up America’s reputation for. producing the highest class of saddle and harness horses to be found in the world, And when such men as Corwin H. Spen- cer, president of the Bt, uis Horse Show Association; Frederick F. W. Blees and William J. Orthwein, vice-presidents; John R. Gentry, the secretary; G. Lacy Craw- ford, the treasurer; Edwin Lemp, William T. Haarstick, D. R. Calhoun, G. H. Walk- er, Frederick C. Meler and August A. Busch countenance a competitive exhibi- tion of horses it may be assumed without quibble that there is good to come from the contests. The entries for the show this year arco greatly in excess of those of last fall. Horses which a year ago pranced out of the arena with the coveted rosettes of blue will have close contenders this time, and in line with the general improvement of the American horse from year to year, the animal which last fall could do no better than wear the red rosette will stand in enviable chance to change his color. In class ll, the high-steppers Who are to be judged to-morrow evening, are a num- ber of local entries. A. A. Busch will show his beautiful Odetta; W. T. Haarstick will exhibit Geraldine; J. T. Drummond wili show Dave, and Park von Wedelsteadt will enter his splendid animal. Against the East St. Louis horses will be pitted the besi of their class from Canada, Missouri and Kentucky. Class 8, for tandem teams, also to be judged to-morrow evening, will show a number of local horses, including teams of J. D. Marshall, A. A. Busch and W. T. Haarstick.

She Had Been Mentally Depressed for Weeks Past and Finally Became Desperate. . Mrs. Mary Crutchfield, a widow, “a years old, who lived at 2324A Cass avénue, com- mitted suicide late yesterday afternoon. She swallowed two ounces of carbolic acid while alone at her home and was dead when Hugh Fitzgibbons, who boarded with her, arrived there. The supposed provocation for the suicide was worry over the alleged unfortunate Crutch#eld’s daughter, Mabel, to Samuel Breeze, three years ago. Breeze is said to be serving a term in the Work House for drunkenness. The daughter is the only immediate rela- tive of Mrs. Crutchfield in St. Louis. C. L.

She frequently expressed a desire to die and always lamented the marriage of her daughter to Breeze. The boarder, Fitzgibbons, an @iderly man, who is Mrs. Crutchfield’s brother-in-law left Mrs. Crutchfield alone in the house about 4 o'clock. She was engaged in house- hold duties and did not seem to be in a cheerful frame of mind. Fitzgibbons returned about 5 o’clock and found Mrs. Crutchfield lying across the sink in the kitchen. A small vial which had contained carbolic acid was on the floor. Fitzgibbons called nelghbors and went out for a doctor. Mrs. Crutchfield was dead when the physician arrived.

When the judges have all made their selections they hold a meeting at which they compare their lists. At these comparisons all dupli- cates are stricken off. If, after this pro- ceeding, more than enough names remain. an equal number js taken from each list until it is reduced to the size desired. If. as has frequently happened, there are so many duplicates that, after they are strick- en off, the list is too small, enough names are selected from the general array by all the judges to fill it. When the names are procured, each is printed on a separate plece of paper and put in the jury wheel, where it may lie untouched for four years, The grand jury is drawn from this wheel as it is needed. The pay of the grand juror fs @ a day. The average period of active service he sees is two weeks. His duty Is to investi- gate the condition of public tinstitutions and alleged indictments of the law. He is intrusted with the power of returning in- dictments when he discoveres that the law has been or is being violated. He is a grand juror because, in these cases, he rep- resents the sovereignty of his State and speake for It. The average juror thinks himself fortu- nate if he fs appointed to the grandjury. He is exempt from petty jury service during the four years he is on the grandju list. and there is a ssibility that he will not even be called for the service to which he is assigned. But, if he is called, he feels that he !s a member of a body hedged with an exclusive dignity. whereas he woul4 not appreciate an assignment to the petty jury service, aus® every man is called upon to render that much to his State.

a _ PART FOUR. WHO. ARE THE -MOST ~BEAU TIFUL ~WOMEN OF NORTH AND OQUIN A A Quest Conducted by the Sunday Post-Dispatch and New York World. a Her Face Will B e Immortalized in Marble, Bronze and Precious Metals. New York World open a contest of international interest. Its object is to determine the two most beautiful women in the two American continents. To many persons this will mean the selection of the two most beautiful women in the world. The contest will extend over more than gix months and will not be closed until June, 1900. The contest {s not limited in any way, the only stipulation being that a can- didate shall have been born in one of the two Americas. Every photograph that may be sent !n wil! be considered and the competition will be conducted throughout by the Sunday Post- Dispatch and New York World with per- fect impartiality. The final selection of the two beauties of Pan-America—one to be blonde, the other brunette—will be made in June by a committee of 10, to be subequent- ly appointed, and to include some of the foremost American artists. On this page of the Sunday Post-Dispatch Magazine to-day is reproduced the design that tells the purpose of this far-reaching competition. The two nymphs, represent- ing the sister continents of Pan-America, were designed by Mr. Raphael Beck of S.ockport, N. Y., and awarded a prize by the managers of the Pan-American Expo- sition, to be held in Buffalo in 1901. The design is now the official emblem of the exposition and is to be cast In stone by a Buffalo sculptor, Mr. August Langen- bahn. But as the design is yet simply an outline, Mr. Langenbabn cannot execute his work until he shall have found, to serve as his models, two women whose perfection of contour and expression shall be without a fiaw. One must be fair, to typify North America; the other dark, to represent South America. Through its great competition, which be- gins to-day, the Sunday Post-Dispatch and New York World have undertaken the re- sponsibility of finding these two beautiful women, who shall be at the same time typical Americans. When they shall have been chosen, thelr forms and faces will be modeled by Mr. Langenbahn, according to Mr. Beck’s design, and subsequently repro- duced in marble, bronze, silver and gold. One entire building of the exposition will be devoted to the exhibition of these statues. Thousands of replicas of the em- blem will be made and spread abroad. The lovely winners of the Sunday Post-Dispatch and New York World's prize contest will be known the world over. Tose the Sunday Post-Dispatch and It is true that for a long time the diffi- culties of selecting the two most perfect the sculptor and the exposition committees in- There were two continents to choose from, but how could the choice be made in such a way as to satisfy the millions who would be interested in the re- beauties of Pan-America seemed to surmountable. sult?

The face of a woman has never been heard of before will be quite as welcome as that of a great artist and Vice versa. But it is not unlikely that the faces of the two loveliest American women have yet to be brought to light. Another important roint that the leading idea of the corning exposition is a union of interests between the two Ameri- cas—a development of the conception of Pan-America—South America should be as fully represented as possible’in the contest. Great care will be taken throughout the contest to give a prominent place to—the beauties of Southern Republics. The most remarkable feature of the prom- inence which will immediately fall to the lot of the two Pan-American beauties is that the emblem bearing their portraits itn marble will form the exterior decoration of one of the most important buildings in the exposition. This bui'ding, which has been designed by Mr. Langenbahn, will be made of gray stone, resembling granite. On the exterior will be 12 replicas of the emblem.

OYAL marriages {tn Purope—real. all- around royal marriages—are growing fewer year by year. The Old World has for some time been running short of royal princesses, and to- day only 8 of them remain unmarried. On the other hand. there ere 106 royal princes without wives. Under the circumstances what ts to pre- vent enterprising American helresses from raiding the market and carrying off a few ear loads of European princes? Miss Cornwallis West of Ireland has cap- tured e third-class German Prince merely by the magic of her eyes and complexion. There are plenty of American girls who can 6urpass Miss West in personal] charms and who can put a few millions into the ecale besides. It is not long since a real king tried to acquire one of George M. ters, and that alone shows the possibilities of the situation. Alexander of Servia is a young monarch of 23, and is no doubt still — for an offer. | } Agaovicns, Yad bere —— gate Pullman's daugh- said to be engaged to a rrince of th ee royal princes like Caraman-Chimay, but with so many scions of sovereign houses in the market it seems that American mil- lionaire ambition should aspire to some- thing better than ordinary nobility. It is true that these superfiuous princes may find princesses in the small German States, but they are not members of reign- ing families. They belong to that middle class, such as the Auerspergs, Lobkow!itzes, Lowensteins, Wiedes, Esterhazys and oth- ers, whose birth is regarded as equal to that of royalty, but who have no rubjects to rule. Then there are other princesses to be found in such houses as that of Bztten- berg and Pless, which take rank with the Argyles and Fifes of Scotland, the Marl- boroughs and Manchesters of Eng'and and the Fitzgeralds of Ireland. Princess Beatrice of England did disdain to marry into this class when she espoused Prince Henry of Batten darg, commonly described as ‘“‘a beggarly prince- ling.” Queen ‘Wilhelmina of Holland is mid- Lystone, William e Wied. . not others too young, the stock of eligible Princes and Princesses is cut still lower. Place the marriageable age for women at from eighteen to thirty-five, and there will be only the following marriageable Prin- cesses in all Europe, according to statis- tics in the Statesmen’s Year Book: Maria de las Mercedes, aged 19, sister of King Alfonso of Spain.

Princess Tatiana of Russia the same age. Irene of Russia !s 4. On the other hand, Princess Pia of Italy is fifty-four, and Princess Maria of Schwarzburg-Sondershausen is sixty. There are also some widows on the list, including Charlotte of Belgium, aged forty-nine; Emma of Waldeck, aged forty-one, and her sister Helena, aged thirty-eight. Princess Beatrice of England is also a widow, fat, fair and fotry-two. And yet even for these there is a pos- sibility. None of them is too old for Prince George of Cambridge, who has seen eighty summers; and Denmark has two gay old soldier Princes who remain bashelors at the age of seventy-four and seventy-five respectively. Doubtless they found the stock of Prin- cesses too low to make ea good selection from. Sut if these are too old to marry, and is Schleswig-Holstein. Zenia, aged 18, Montenegro. Elizabeth, aged 26, sister Prince Frederick Waldeck. Elvira, aged 28, cousin King Alfonso of Spain. Marie Louise, aged 20, granddaughter Queen Vic- toria of England. It will be seen that the mearriageable Princesses of Europe number 13—‘“unlucky 13"°—a number which, according to popular superstition, ought to bring misfortune into the matrimonial affairs of half the sov- ereign houses of Europe. The spell might be broken, however, by adding to the list the names of Queen Wilhelmina of Hol- land, or the names of Princess Margaret Victoria of Connaught, Princess Maria Teresa of Spain, Princess Olga of Russia and her cousin, Princess Helena, all of whom are rising 18 and will soon be in the matrimonial market.

This table shows that there are thirty- eight princes in Europe members of sov- ereign families, and no mention is made of King Alexander of Servia, aged twenty- three, who has for years been scouring Europe for a wife, and who become so that he prop8sed late George M. the Gesperate at one time for the daughter of the Pullman. Emperor Franz Josef and Other royal widowers are also excluded. This is an unhappy outlook for the thirty- eight princes. They are all eligible men. Doubtless they would all like to marry prin- cesses of their own rank, but there is only one royal princess to every three royal princes. Nobody can deny that the fleld is greatly restricted. Most men in this world have at least a couple of thousand women to choose from in their own rank of life, and so have a reasonable chance of happiness; but with a field of only twelve to pick from, and three rivals for each woman's hand, the lot of a European prince must be unhappy. Nearly ever European prince has a mor- ganatic wife in addition to his regularly wedded partner, end it is to this state of affairs that mesaillances are to be at- tributed such as that of Prince Karl of Be- den and Rosalie von Beust, and that of Prince Oscar of Swenden, who re- nounced the throne rather than accept a wife under such ciscumstances, and then married Miss Ebba Munck The rising generation of princes and prin- cesses promises nothing better than now exists.

BRECHT, who was recently : appointed consul for St. Louis to the Argentine Republic, has an interest- ing collection of rugs and robes made from the breasts of birds and skins of wild ani- mais which inhabit the Southern Continent. He values the trophies at $10,000. One of the rugs is made from the king penguin, a bitd found only in the Magellan Straits. It was woven from the breasts of 2117‘ birds. Concerning it Mr. Brecht said: “I would mot part with the penguin rug for any money consideration. Intrinsically it Is worth probably $1200. But the Shab of Per- Sia, who might fancy it for his oriental boudoir, couldn't buy it.”’ Another magnificent specimen is an ostrich fug, made of 16 ostrich breasts. It is white and black and is soft and downy. The feath- « ers are long and the rug measures about 5x10 feet. It adorns the front apartment of Mr. Brecht’s home and pussy and Fido fre- quently camp there unknown to the owner. “The plumes of the ostrich,” said Mr. Brecht. ‘‘are plucked from the wing and tail while the bird Is alive, but to mak, * rug the little ones are Kin’ 22d skinned and the soft fluffy breasts are sewn until they reach the size of a blanket. Those of brown and white are alternated in the same rug. I use them as carriage robes or to throw on the back of a chair or couch. Oc- casionally the ladies use them as panels for the front of skirts. When thus used they are more striking than any loom could produce. Opera cloaks have also been made of them.”’ Mr. Brecht has five of these rugs and he guards them more than he would a treas- WE |, R\ fe eye, ¥ yl gee t/ "oie ons ~ ‘ Se tir J , ~m act cet , 5 ‘ — Some of Mr. Brecht’s rugs. That in the center is made of thousands of breasts of rare birds, i handiwork of Mr. Brecht himself. He was presented with two of the others by Presi- dent Roca of the Argentine Republic, whom he has known for many vears. There are scores of other mementos of Consul Brecht’s visit to the Southern Re- public which he prizes very highly. They include all sorts of ornaments and bDric-a- brac. Several fancy baskets of unique de- sign are constructed from the hide of small animals, belonging to the peludo and mu- litas species—which are rare save in Brasil. He has several fans made of feathers of native birds. In the center fs a bunch of flowers in various colors made from the birds’ feathers. Mr. Brecht spends two or three months of every year tn the Argentine Republic, as he has large busines interests there. “We don’t hear much talk of the Soutn American Republics, but their progress and industry are rapidly. bringing them to the front. Take the Aregntine Republic for In- stance: Buenos Ayres is as @osmopolitan as New York or Paris. It contains a great- er population than St. Louis and the resie dents lavish money on all sorts of amuse- ments. “The principal streets there are named after our leading cities. One of the main thoroughfares —® called United States ave- nue. while there is a St. Louls and a New York and a Philadelphia street. But no- where do you find that any foreign coun- try is similarly honored.” Mr. Brecht is a man of simple tastes. Though he has factories here and in Eu- rope he has. living apartments over his place of business on Cass avenue. His es- tablishment there covers nearly an entire block and employs, hundreds of men and women. =——— | REVELATIONS BY A FORMER AGENT ———_——_ OF THE GERMAN SECRET SERVICE. 90393 3993 3333939999 GECE CEEECEEE Stee Safe in America He Tells Secrets of the Drey- fus Case and Other Incidents of Underground Diplomacy.

Barreme, the Prefect at l’'Eure, in 1899, and the killing of his son two days later in Paris, also arranged for the putting away of Labori, Dreyfus’ counsel.

They will tell, too, how they were put in possession of them, and will show that Dreyfus had nothing to do with it. I will consider the “affaire Dreyfus” closéd when Zola and Labori de- mand, an official proclamation of the in- nocence of Dreyfus. They will get it. If they don’t thev will publish all they know. The Barreme affair is not very well known in America. He was the Prefect—the Chief. l’Eure, where the famous “Gun 120’ wes tested. -He was a fine man “pefsonally,*a favorite with army men who cime to the proving grounds to witness the tests of gurs. He was a man of honor, however, and saw how thé secret service of Germany was getting what it wanted in his town, Barreme threatened to make disclosures regarding the officers, and a few nights later he was found murdered in a railway carriage. His wife set to work to hunt up his assassins. One morning on glancing over a paper she saw a personal whicn read: “The widow Barreme would better drop the investigation or she will not get her pension.”’ She returned home, and to all appear- ances had dropped the matter. A few mornings ‘after, however, her son was found murdered in Paris. He had taken up the fight where the mother had dropped it, but he, too, had fallen a victim to the com- bination which had ended his father’s life. The same conspirators sought to end the Dreyfus case by killing Labori. I feel sure that Zola will add to his fam- ous defi: “I accuse Col. Jauoust and his worthy colleagues of dragging the flag or France into the mire of the ‘Alliance Russe,’ for was it to please Germany or Russia’ that all those secret: sittings took place?’ This conspiracy was nothing less than the playing of Russia against Germany by the aristocrats jn high position in the French Army to- overthrow France-and put Prince Louis Napoleon, who is now in the Russian Army, on the.throne of an imperial France. ‘ereat to Cronstadt, Russia, in command of the French fleet. The Russians were cute enough not to enter into any official alilance before they could lay before their chiefs all the infor- mation connected with the mobilization of the fleet and land forces of France. I’retty soon the Czar came to Paris. He wanted to see the sights, and his visit put the keystone to the arch of the make-be- lieve alliance. The aristocracy of France does not like to feel the power slipping away from them. It galls them to be ruled by tanners and dry goods men. Naturally, they have es- tablished a party with the design of again controlling France. They have employed women to aid them and send them to Rus- sia and Germany, keeping up that sympa- thy for the aristocracy which is strong in all monarchial countries. 1894.

Now comes FEsterhazy, a Hungarian, a naturalized citizen, always talking about his ancestors. He was a small wheel in the machine. Possessing, as he did, se- crets of the parties whs were to aid in the re-establishment of the Empire, he could not resist the temptation of making money out of it. He was paid money by Germany and divided if with the women who were aiding him. The Genera] Staff could do nothing but give him a chance to get out of the country, The final act was to have the scheme reach its maturity with Russia in posses- sion ef all information concerning France's army and navy. The French Generals would then provoke Germany into war— and they were never very far from it, you know. France was to appeal to Russia and Russia was to act as a buffer. Louis Napoleon is serving in the Russian Army. The French people, with Russia as their benefactor, could not have refused him as a candidate for the throne if Russia be- came the savior of the French nation. Germany had her plan of campaign mapped out. She was to build railways to strategic points on the frontier and have rails there to parallel French tracks to- ward Paris if she found difficulty in seiz- ing the railroads. France was friendly to Russia, but Germany was getting what she wanted through her secret service. She thonght she was the only nation in posses- sion of this information, but Russia was just as well fixed in that line. Here is my part :n this great plan: I was commissioned bv Capt.

France has not enough men in West Africa to make her sovereignty sure without constant skirmishing of more or less importance. The ‘first the the Foreau-Lamy expedi- tion. This was sent from Algiers more than a year ago to march to the southern border of the Soudan and there fight the way against the Tauregs to Lake Tchad as the vanguard of the march of civilization to the interior in the guise of a French rail- way. The expedition has already penetrated to Air, in the center of the Soudan, where it is now resting preparatory to beginning the real struggle. Along its line of march it has contested various battles with the Tauregs and at a time was reported annihilated. Communication with Algiers was complete- ly cut off. This was the origin of the re- port. News has just been received of the arrival of the expedition at Air in good condition and about to open its aggressive campaign. ' The second expedition is a branch of the Foreau-Lamy expedition. This was in charge of Lieut. Palllier and was directed against the tribesmem near Lake Tchad, who had murdered Capt. Casemejoux. Advices received in Paris last week an- nounce the success of the expedition and the recovery of Casemejoux’s body. The expedition had‘a second duty before rejoining Foreau and Lamy. This was to pursue and capture Voulet and Chanoine and their following, who had murdered Col. Klobb and 10 of his command at Zimber recently. This was rendered unnecessary by the mutiny just reported, which resulted in the death of Voulet and Chanoine and the deflection of their men. They joined the Pallier expedition peaceably. France’s third trouble is shared by Ger- many. The two had a disagreement over the boundary line btween Ashantee and To- govland. A military commission was ap- pointed:to investigate it and settle upon a boundary. The commission proceeded to the field where it was set upon by the natives of the Kaffir’s country These battles were fought, in all of which the French and German troops fought side by side. In the last one at Lama a decisive v.ctory was won and the natives routed. Two or three more battles will likely be necessary, how- ever, before the whole trouble can be final- ly settled. he Moorish trouble is also a compara- tively slight one. A force of Moors were set upon on the Algerian boundary by the Ascaris tribesmen, a wander.ng tribe from North Soudan, a battle was fought and the Moors routed. The survivors returned t Moroceo and an expedition was organize to pursue the Ascaris and the particuias band annihi.ated. The trouble was takep up, however, hy other tribes of Ascaris and a M.niature war is now being waged — the Moorish frontier by the two This is the eighth and last of the cam- paigns now being fought in the Africas.

Zadkiel, on the title page of ‘his book, calls this the “‘Year of Strife and Progress.’’ His prediction for October said: “Mars is now in his chief dignity, Scor- pio, and forms the conjunction with Jupiter on the 10th. This is a happy omen for the arms of Great Britain, whose enemies will be scattered. * * * An honorable treaty is made by Great Britain.’ “Honors fall to the lot of the English army and navy.”’ For December he predicts that on the 2d and 3d the whole world would be shaken physically and politically. This is backed TRANSVAAL WAR, on and tells why it will be so. He says of November: “The positions are rather ominous and @ disturbed state of labor market, bad trad@ and feeling of doubt and despondency among the people will exist. There ap- pears to be much anxiety and unrest In connection with our foreign relations, which wiM be anything but satisfactory, at the same time reciprocal treaties or even ale liances may be completed. “Towards the close of the month the grand conjunction of seven planets In one sign will be approaching, an event that does not occur once in 1000 years.

In January, 1896, the federation inaugurat- ed a system of traveling libraries for Mis- eourt. This is now in successful operation and is a source of benefit to districts and towns not in direct contact with public li- braries. Mrs. John A. Allen inaugurated this movement. The benefits of the traveling library have been thoroughly tested in many of the States and the system is strongly indorsed by them all. In Missouri there are 35 li- braries, each having 50 volumes. Other important features brought before the federation will be the free kindergar- tens and kindergarten normal training Classes for the care of children under school age in places where the kindergarten is not a part of the public school system. Do- mestic science is a feature for public school systems. The art league is for the purpose of supplying schools with casts, photo-~- graphs and works of art. The Press Committees aim to secure the daily newspapers as a means of calling attention to educational needs and report- ing educational progress. The officers of the Missour!l State Fed- eration are: Honorary president for life, Mrs. John A. Allen, 3727 Westminster place, St. Louis; president, Mrs. Ellen D. Lee, 409 Washington boulevard, St. Eouis; first vice-president, Mrs. Homer Fuller, Spring- field; second vice-president, Mrs. W.

et > ah ll A ye Seen ny lm pee ----- — ~~ ARMS OF THE BOERS. By Hudson Maxim, a Famous Inventor. | F one man can hit with a rifle an object the «ize of the human figure practically 7 every time at a given distance, and anvther to score as many hits at the same distance requires an object as large us the side of a barn, then. other things being equal, as many more of the poor marksmen would be necessary for a fair fight as the size of a man is contained in the broad side of a barn. The above comparison has heid good in the past in the experience of the Eritish with the Boers, the British taking the part of the bad marksmen and the Buyers of the good marksmen. The Boers from chiidhood, like American youths, bave been familiar with. the use of firearms, while their outdoor habits have given them a capacity of vision. enabling them to determine distances and a clearness of sight at long range which. coupled with their almost constant practice with guns, makes them very good sharpshooters. It is a well known fact that “fresh air’ children taken from London into the coun- try for a day or two complain of pains in the head, and that their eves ache, owing to the overtasking of them in looking at objects at a much increased range. A large number of the British army are made up of men provided with much shorter range eyes than those possessed by the Boers. if the Boers stick to their plan of fighting in skirmishing order, every man for himself, as the American Indians fought and as Washington fought the British in the War of the Revolution, then the advantages of shrapnel and canister and automatic machine guns will not avail the British so much as might at first be expected from whet was accomplished by them in the Soudan. I anticipate that the Boers will not attack the British in mass and in the open, for such a course would be simply suicide in re of modern artillery and automatic guns. DOOM OF ART IN ALY, By Ouida.

Tennyson Neely.) IGHT or ten of us formed a merry party in the drawing room. as we Icaned comfortably back in the velvet arm- chairs, while tea, in Chinese cups, sent forth its fragrance before us. The round table consisted principally of ladies, and we were discussing which would probably be the stronger, love or patriotism? “Oh,”’ murmured a slender girl, the happy bride of a fortnight, “I am firmly convinced that love is a stronger feel- ing than patriotism—nay, that no other can equal it in might.” The most neticeable woman in our circle was Frau von G. “If you will allow me,” she said, “I'll relate a little episode from my own life which will prove that, under certain circumstances, patriotism can influence even an Italian more pow- erfully than love. You know that I am a native of Milan. and dia not leave my birthplace until 10 years ago, when my husband’s business summoned him here. I was a girl of 18 when the insurrection in Lombardy was quelled. During this terrible period I made the acquaintance of Albert von G., who afterward became my husband. We were very well acquainted and already on familiar terms, when one day, he had been sitting all the morning reading aloud to me, he suddenly asked permission to light a cigar. : “ ‘What,’ I exclaimed, almost terrified; ‘are you a smoker, Albert?’ “You must know that at that time I had a great aversion to men who smoked. I could not praise my brother enough for not having acquired the unpleasant habit, and declared a hundred times that I would rather endure anything but to kiss a man who sullied his lips with the disagreeable weed. Until then I had not known that Albert was a smoker, for, of course, there was no smoking in my drawing room, and I had no opportunity to discover his vice elsewhere. The vehemence of my question confused him. , ‘**¥es, I smoke,’ he answered hesitatingly, ‘but what is there extraordinary about that?’ “‘True,’ I cried, ‘unfortunately there is nothing extraordinary about that, but I will tell you this, that I will never marry a man who takes a cigar in his mouth. I cannot endure such a persons he is utterly detestable in my eyes.’ “Aibert looked at me in surprise, but said nothing and merely slipped che cigar he had already taken out back into his pocket. Then he remained with me a short time in a depressed, silent mood, and soon took his leave. The next day he came again and tried to assume a cheerful, unembarrassed manrer. Without any introduction, he seized the first op- portunity to turn the conversation upon smoking, and said jestingly that yesterday he had heen fairly frightened out of his wits; that probably I did not mean what I said so seriously; that he hoped I should become accustomed to his habit, etc. But I understood no jesting on this subject, and again, with the utmost earnestness, protested that I could not en- dure a man who smoked «nd never would accustom myself to the habit. On the contrary, I expected that a man who loved me would make the sacrifice of renouncing the unpleasant vice. My avowal threw Albert into a state of melan- choly, which would now seem to me very comical, but then grieved me to the heart. “Une day my brother came to me and tok me to task for my folly. Albert was stealing about like a shadow and no longer dared to visit me; I ought not to torment him any longer with my foolish obstinacy, but in heaven’s name, let him have his cigar. He tad already made the attempt to give up smoking, but the habit was stronger than his will. My brother scvided and raged, but all was useless, and I clung to my resolve. ‘ft should weary you if I were to tell you all the details of this quarrel. Suffice to say that at last Albert came to e, begged me not to be cruel any longer, and as usually happens, I wept and said: ‘Very well, I will show. you that my love is stronger than yecurs. You will not give up your habit for my sake; I will try, for yours, to conquer my re- pugnance.’ “We had been wedded about six months when I noticed, one evening, that Albert did not light a cigar as usual after supper. The next day there was the same abstinence. When, on the third evening, it was repeated, I was extremely curious and much excited. ‘What,’ I thought, ‘is Albert voluntarily making the sacrifice for his wife which he would net yield to the entreaties of the betrothed bride?’ My heart exulted over this proof of love, and I considered myself— don't laugh—the happiest of mortals. “Tl could no longer help expresing my joy. you not only relinquish ‘Albert,’ I said one evening, ‘you are an angel; smoking for mv sake, but you are too delicate to say a word about it, or to betray by the slightest sign what a painful effort it costs you.” While speaking I embraced and kissed him with genuine enthusiasm. “But to my great astonishment, this outburst of tenderness embarrassed him. He escaped from my embrace and lowerel his eyes before my questioning gaze: After a sorrowf1l pause, hc said in a hesitating, uncertain voice: ‘My sweet, little wife, I might play the part of being generous and self-sacrifi: ing, but J think it is more manly to confess the truth. So learn that I have not given up my cigar for your sake, but--for the sake of my native land! You know that the tobacco monopoly has been introduced by the AustNan Governnient; we have now agreed that every patriot will give up srroking, in order, so far as lies in his power, to lessen the receipts of the treasury. This may seem to you trivial, but we must deal the foe needle pricks if we cannot attack him with the sword,’ “So, you see,” added Frau von G., as she concluded her story, “that, even in an Italian, patriotism is more powerful than love, and the hot-blooded Italian sacrificed to the abstract idea of his native land the cigar which he had not been willing to give up for the sake of a creature of flesh and blood.” MAX NORDAU. _—_— = * a GETTING THERE FIRST.

What is true of success in war, is true in politics, in the arts, in science, in society, in business. The young man or the old ma», for that matter, who understands the art of getting there tu’st, will be the winner. The sermon I have preached for years, one which applies to all trades and professions, to all occupations, is: Arm yourself with a stainless integrity: let loose the heaven born zifts of genius and ambition, and a resolution that cvuurts put never counts the heaviest odds; begin on the basis of cash, even if you have to start with a tack ham- mer: almost unawares it will become a trip hammer, doubling and treblins every year with the relentless energy of a circular saw.

I wrote this sermon vears ago and I only add to it now these suggestions on the art of getting there fu'st: Keep good company or none. Never be idle. If your hands cannot w fully empleyed, attend to the cultivation of your mind. Always speak the truth. Make few promises. Live up to your engagements. Keep your secrets, if you have any. When you speak to a person, look him in the face. Good company and good conversation are the very sinews of virtue. Good cheracter is above all things else. Your character cannot be essentially injured, except by your own acts. If any one spea:s evil of you, let your life be so that none will believe him. Drink no kind of intoxicating liquors.

I am not putting myself up as an authority for I know that anything I neg F say will possfbly bring forth jibes and sneers from many who frown upon divorce, I am not making this a personal question. I am speaking in the abstract. If women find that their husbands have vices which they cannot tolerate, or brut. ish tendencies that are obnoxious to refined womanhood, do you think they ought to be forced to drag out a loveless existence by the side of these men? Where two people have not ome thought in common, do you think that life together holds for them any happiness? I tell you no, and that marriage of that kind is umholy and should be dissolved. But you ask do I not think these things ought to be considered before the leap is made into matrimony? : Most certainly I do, ag far as possible. But there is no judging a man or woman before your marriage. It takes the little frets and jars of daily life ito bring out different phases of character. Before marriage the curl papers are taken down care- — fully and the hair arranged in a soft, crinkly coiffure. After marriage the curl papers are as often as not left up, and the greater details of life are neglected in the same ratio. It takes some people longer than others to find out whether or not they have made a mistake, but when they do make the discovery I think they ought to rectify it at once. I do not mean that they should cry quits at the first quarrel, but after time te gather a full realization of the hopelessness of trying to get along together. People come to me and ask me how I have preserved my good looks. (One would think me as old as Methuselah to hear some of them.) I will tell you the secret; it was no hygienic feats performed by beauty experts. I got a divorce; that’s what has kept me free from worry, wrinkles and—Jook, you don’t see a single crow’s foot!

Reviewed by Senator Chauncey M. Depew, Who Saw the Londoa Production. RVLNG gives a Robespierre much more interesting and picturesque than the. | bloodthirsty wretch we have become accustomed to in the history of the French | Revolution. Irving’s Robespierre is a man of culture and refinement, who has — a i td S become a fiend because of his personal experience of the hoplessness of the condition “a : of the masses who are below the aristocracy. He is a gentleman surrounded by associates who are brutal, ignorant and savage, His better nature is constantly struggling to assert itself and to serve his country in some vague way, but his fears make him believe that he will never be safe until he has guillgtined all of his enemies. His nature has been perverted by the refusal of the nobleman for whe he was attorney to permit him to marry his daughter, even after she was disgraced, He grasps for absolute power, thinking that no one but himself can be intrusted with it, and believing that with his enemies dead his administration of State would meay liberty for the people. New enemies prevent his purposes of mercy ever material- izing. The two most realistic and effective scenes in the play are the prison, where the royalist men, women and children are waiting to be called to the guillotine, and the scene in the National Assembly when it dethrones Robespierre. The story and the pictures present with never failing interest those who have been arrested by the Revolutionary tribunals and the conditions under which they meet in the great hall of the prison. There they gave their games and social enter- tainments, there they renew old friendships and form new ones while waiting for the soldiers who come every morning to take to the guillotine those who have been condemned and whose names are read off by the captain of the guard. Hope, fear, despair, affection: and self-sacrifice never had more realistic demonstration than are presented in this remarkable scene. The meeting of the General Assembly scene was reproduced this summer during | the Dreyfus agitation in the turning out of the Dupuy ministry and the Installation of Gallifet. Unbridied rage and passion are substituted for debate and orderly pro- cedure This scene. conveys a better idea of the tumultuous period of the French Revoiution and of the forces which controlled its movement than any description ip the library of books written on the subject. In 20 minutes the spectator grasps the whole spirit— the triumphs, the horrors, the excesses and the causes of the failure of this great uprising of the people against centuries of oppression and outrage. The period from the guillotine of Louls XVI. to Napoleon's ascendency tontains the most fascinating story in history. Every intelligent person has read more books on this subject than on any other one topic.

Habit and will power have most to do with the act of going to sleep. .We feel sleepy at our usual hour for retiring, just as we time. Insomnia often comes from irregularity more than anything else and once the fear of not sleeping well has been aroused, that very fear prevents natural sleep. The patient must be persuaded as much as possible that he did sleep well the night before and will sleep well to-night. And if he still is fearful of the coming darkness, mix some harmless powder in a glass of water, give it to him and he ts apt to sleep, under the impression that he has had a narcotic. It is a fact that many who think they have not slept a wink have actually had quite an amount of sleep, absolute wakefulness being very rare. In the case of nervous patients, quiet and patience will do much to give them required rest. Too protracted labor is often the cause of sleeplessness and when this Is the case, a return to a regular hour for retirement will help to re-establish thé sleep habit, especially if the brain has been. rested for some time before retiring. Where it is evident that the sleeplessness is due to congestion in the brain the ase of cold hip and foot baths is wise. It is is found that the proper reaction does not. follow the cold foot bath, give the patient a hot foot bath before the cold one and then put a hot-water bottle to the feet in bed. The feet must be warm for 6ny one to sleep well. . It is a very grave error to try to compensate for the loss of sleep at night bF taking a nap in the daytime, for this oniy aids in continuing the troublé. If the insomnia is treated promptly, by aseertaining its cause, a little common sense ip avoiding a continuance of the exciting agency and a return to the most regular pose sible life will generally pffect a permanent cure of far greater value than that ote fered by the use of drugs.

HE sixth trial of the celebrated Hill- ih mon insurance case is now in progress in thet United States Circuit Court here and will probably continue many days. This case has been in the courts of Kansas for more than 20 years. The first trial, in 1879, occupied 16 days. The fifth trial re- quired 75. Altogether 200 days have been consumed in the several hearings. Two judges, worn out, have died, About half of the 60 jurymen who have handled the case are dead. One witness, John H. Brown, Was once subjected to a cross-examination lasting 17 days. Apparently the case is no nearer a solution now than it was 2 years azo. The case is this: John W. Hillmon, an ex-Union soldier, married Sallie E. Quinn at Oct. 13, 1878. Two months later, though not worth $0, Hilimon took out three life insurance policies, as follows: New York Mutual, $10,000; New York Life, $10,00; Connecticut Mutual, $5000. The first premium was paid with money furnished Hillmon by a relative. Only one premium Was ever paid. Near the end of December Hillmon left Lawrence with John H. Brown. They started on a roving trip to Southwestern Kansas, traveling in a spring wagon. They stopped at Wichita several weeks and Hill- mon made occasional trips to Lawrence, Dvring one of these trips he was vaccin- ated at the request of Theo Wiseman, the insurance agent who issued the polictes. Hillmon triec to induce him to register his height as two inches more than it was, but this request was refused. Hillmen returned to Wichita. He picked up Adolph Walters of Fort Madison, lo., with whom he had a slight acquaintance, and offered him work on a ranch he claimed to own in Swuthwestern Kansas. The three started together from Wichita and reached Medicine Lodge. One night in March, 1879, they camped on Crooked Creek, 18 miles from town. Walters wes never heard of again. A few days later Brown reappeared Lawrence and circulated a story to the effect that he had aecidentaliv shot and killed Hililmon while the latter was climb- ing into their wagon. It is a fact tnat the dead body of a man was found at the camp on Crooked Creek. An inquest was held by Coroner Paddock @nd a verict of accidental death returned. The body was buried at Médi¢ine Lodge, @fter having been officially recognized as that of John W. Hillmon. Mrs. Hillmon then demanded the amounts of the policies issued by the three insur- ance companies They refused payment. The body was disinterred twice and photo- graphed. The father, mother an¢ sister of Adolph Walters identified these photo- Sraphs as that of their son and brother. Hilimon had one gold-filled tooth. The teeth in the body at Medicine Lodge were sound, A peculiar scar on Walters’ nose wag rec- oenized in the photograph by his reiatives and by acquaintances. Walters was traced Io., to Wichita, Kan. he was in the company of Hillmon and Brown. March 1, 1879, he wrote to Miss Alvina Kasten, to whom he was engaged to be married, a Ictter containing this pas- Seae am going with a man by the name of Hittmon. Whe intends to stock a sheep ranch, and as he promised me more wages than I can minke at anything else, I con- fluded to do that, for a while at least, till I strike something better. So you see that I will not be at home for a few months yet. in from Fort Madison, When last heard of The contention of the insurance compa- mies is that there was a conspiracy to da- fraud them; that the body buried at Medi- cine Lodge was that of Adolph Walters, and not of John W. Hillmon; and that Hill- mon and Brown murdered Walters for the purpose of substituting his body for that of Hillmon, whose death was announced. Mr. Wiseman, who was present at the distinterment, testifiel in court: We took the body up. The grave was dry, the weather cold. It had been enol for two Weeks. The body was in a fair state of reservation. It was not the body of J. ?, Hillmon. It was not the body of any man ever saw It was taller than Hill- mon; the hair darker and wavy; the mus- tache thinner. The nose was larger and of @ Roman type: the hands were longer and slimmer. The teeth were perfect. There was NO apace in the teeth In this body like that of Hillmon's teeth. At the second inquest, held at Lawrence, Kan., the body was viewed by many men who had known Hillmon. The preponder- ance of testimony was that it was not his body. The Coroner decided that the body before him was that of an unknown man, and that he had been murdered and a vet- Gict Was 59 rendered, Mrs. Hillmon, after this event, was in- duced to relinquish the policies she held, but afterward contended that this Ggreement was brought about unfairly and @ccordingly entered suit. The first trial was held at Lawrence in WTS. The second took place at Leavenworth in 1885. Two other trials were held later, ait Topeka, and then the fifth, last March, she - Just 20 years after the filing of the original suit. This resulted in a verdict for the plain- ~ tiff. _— ee rem ae et emm ‘ Had the amount been paid, Mrs, Hillmon would have collected about $37,000 exclusive of costs. The defendants appealed the case to the United States Supreme Court. it was remanded back to the United States District Court, because of error. The sixth trial is now in progress. During the first inquest at Medicine Lodge Brown disappeared. Afterward, in conver- sation with W. J. Buchanan of Wyandotte, Kan.—so Mr. Buchanan testified at one of the trials—Brown declured that the body buried was not that of Hillmon; that on Dec. 10, 1878, Hillmon, Levi Baldwin and himself discussed a plan to defraud the in- surance companies. Brown said: “Baldwin was to furnish the money to pay the premiums and to keep up the poii- cies; in case they were to be renewed. Hill- mon and I went Southwest from Lawrence, ostensibly to locate a stock ranch, but real- ly to find somebody we could pass for Hillmon. During a trip he made to Law- rence to get some money and see his wife he had himself vaccinated, at the request of the insurance agent, who insisted. “After Hillmon’s return we picked up a stranger, who, I afterward learned, was Adolph Walters. Hillmon suggested that he get vaccinated. Walters (we always called him Joe) at first refused, but finally Hillmon persuaded him into it. Hiilmona did the job himself, using a pocket knife and taking the virus from his arm. “We camped on a creek 18 miles from Medicine Lodge. ‘That night I was stand- ing at the hind end of the wagon pulling out some feed when I heard a gun go off. Turn- ing around, I saw that the stranger was shot and that Hillmon was pulling him away to get him out of the campfire. He changed a diary from his own pocket to ‘Joe's’ and told me everything was ‘all right.’ Then he took ‘Joe’s’ valise and started. He had previously changed cloth- ing with ‘Joe,” and as the clothes thus given to. ‘Joe’ had originally belonged to Raldwin, the corpse when disinterred was wearing Baldwin's clothes.’”’ There is nothing on record in any court to show that Hillmon is dead. There ts nothing on reccrd to show that Walters is alive. His own relatives believe he is dead. Hiilmon's wife evidently believes that he is dead. The insurance companies believe he is alive and living sumewhere in the West. in 1893 Hilimon was said to be in Oregon. This story wes believed, because his sis- ter lived at Walla Walla, but nothing fur- ther was develped. Afier the third trial it was reported that Hillmon was engaged in mining in the Sier- ra Madre Mountains of New Mexico. Later, in the latter part of 1895, it is claimed thai he was positively located in the mines of Tombstone, Ariz., by Detective John Saw- han, who worked as a miner for the pur- pose of gaining the confidence of the man he believed to be Hillmon. To him Hill- mon is said to have made a full confession, relating in detail the plan to defraud the in- surance companies and the murder of Adolph Walters. He said he had often Wanted to go back and confess, but his friends would not allow him to do so. After leaving Medicine Lodge he wandered about for five years until he located in the Sierra Madre Mountains. Then he mar- ried, A year later his wife died, leaving him a littie girl, named Mary, now about 12 years old, if living. After his wife’s death he resumed his wanderings and was finally located, according to Detective Sawhan, at Tombstone. Here is the confession made by or the man wo claimed to be Hillmon, about Jan, 1, 1894, at Paris, Idaho, as re- corded on the authority of Detective Saw- han: “It was nearly two months after the pub- lication of my whereabouts, -and of the practical confession I had made toe Saw- han, that I learned anvthing was known to the public. The information was given to me by an attorney from Kansas, whom I had kKnuwn before I became an outcast. He wanted me to recant all that I had told and to make an affidavit that I was not John W. Hillmon, but a John Hillman, who had left Kansas of my own accord. He promised that I should never be dis- turbed, and that I might begin life anew without any fear “Begin life anew! It was impossible. I have not been afraid of the law. I have been afraid of myself. I fled at first to carry out my plans to provide wealth for my family and myself. When that first trial was held I found that even if suc- cessful I could never enjoy what I had committed crime to gain. “Then, when on a visit to a relative near Madalina, I learned that my wife was mar- ried again, secure in the belief that I was dead, I was in despair. When I struck that lonely sheep ranch in Western Mexico, and married the one person in all the world who had faith in me, I thought I would then find peace and comfort. “The solitude and quietness suited me. When my little Mary was born 1 imagined that peace would come to me, and that I would live and die a sheep herder.

The Hillmon insurance case has been in the courts of Kansas since 1879, John W, Quign at Lawrence, Kan., 1878. Two months later he had his life in- sured for $25,000 in her favor in three companies, He was not worth 650, The first premiums were pald with money advanced by a relative. No more premiums were ever paid. In* December, 1878, Hillmon left Lawrence with John H. Brown on a roving trip to Southwestern Kansas. TFhey stopped several weeks at Wichita, Eariy in March, 1879, they left Wichita with Adolph Walters of Fort Madison, Io. They camped one night outside of Medicine Lodge, Kan. Walters was never heard of again alive. Brown appeared in Medicine Lodge and reported that he had accidentally shot and killed Hillmon. Walters resembled Hillmon. Brown's story was accepted and the body was buried as that of John W. Hillmon. Mrs. Hillmon asked the insurance companies for the amounts of the policies. They refused payment. The body was disinterre@. Photo- graphs of it were identified as that of Adolph Walters by his parents, sister and friends. Citizens of Lawrence who viewed the body said it was not that of Hill- mon. Others said it was. A second inquest was held. It was decided that the body wis that of an unknown man, and that he had been murdered. Mrs. Hillmon entered suit against the insurance companies. They defended, declaring « conspir- acy to defraud existed, and charring that Hilmon #od Brown had mur- dered Walters, in order to substitute his body for that of Hillmon. The insurance compsnies have spent $89,000 fighting the case. Mrs. Hillmen, declaring her hus- band to be dead, married J. F. Smith, a traveling man, several years ago. There have been six trials of the case. Two of the judges who presided are now dead. Fifteen witnesses are dead. Thirty jurors who served on case are dead. John H. Brown was once cross-ex- amined for 17 days. The first trial lasted 16 days. The last trial consumed 75 days. The total number of days spent in five trials was 20.

He had ever disliked the manner of Grady. “Grady “was not seen out of his bugzy untill late on the second day after ihe mur- to to the Bartlett house a dozen ps ees Pods ee bee rae Slag ee te aR se Lappe: Pe ay der, and this was after the bloodhounds had been sent back to Dallas. “Of course, I set out to find a trace of an instrument which might have inflicted the wounds on the girls. I found nothing in the town which seemed to fit the case except a butcher’s cleaver, and there were dozens of them, but none missing. The back of a cleaver would have made ex- actly the kinds of cuts described by the Coroner. Grady was in the hardware busi- mess and kept cleavers in stock. “The general inquiry that we made about persons who were seen on the street late on the night of the murder brought out this information: A negro was formerly worked for Grady said he heard the latter entering the back gate at his home at 2:30 a. m. on the night of the murder. The negro was lying abed awake in his house across the alley from the Grady place. He heard some one at the gate and a moment later, when Grady’s dog barked, he heard a whistle. The negro declared his belief that it was Grady who whistled and en- tered the yard. “This negro left G—. a few days after making this statement and we were never able to locate him afterward. “In a second conversation with Grady I led him to talk about his own movements on the night of the murder. He declared that he worked at his store until 11 o’clock and went from there direct to his home. His home was about what would be three city blocks from the Bartlett house. The Statement that he was at the store at ll o'clock was verified by others. “I noticed during the second interview that Grady kept a revolver lying on his desk and that a Winchester rifle leaned against it. The rear door of the store was kept closed, whereas prior to the murder it was always open to give the store a better temperature. The position of Gra- dy’s desk was changed and he faced the front door while at work. Thus he com- manded a view of every person who en- tered. “In speculating on the importance of these facts it should be remembered that the lynching committee was always on duty and that even the authorities were obliged to admit among themselves that should evidence pointing strongly to the guilt of any person be developed that person would in all probability be hanged by a mob, without a trial. “I had been on the scene about one week when the first of a series of confessions was made. A deputy marshal and a con- stable marched a tough-looking negro into town at the muzzle of Winchesters and drove him up to the courthouse where the lynching committee was. “The negro was so frightened that he trembled like a man with a chill. At the command of his captors he repeated a con- fession, beginning something like this: ‘On the night of June 13, about 2 o'clock, I entered a room in the Bartlett house where there were two young ladies sleep- ing.’ “Capt. Wain and the Sheriff chanced to be in the crowd when the negro was brought up. Walin saw through the scheme as soon as the negro began his singsong story. ‘*Put that man tn jail,’ he whispered to the Sheriff. He and the Sheriff grabbed the negro and whisked him Into jall before the crowd realized what they were doing. The constable and deputy protested loudly after the prisoner was locked up, declar- ing that the negro was thelr prisoner, tha: he was willing to confess he had killed Jennie Hawkins, and they were entitled to the reward ' ‘Wain calmed the negro down and in the course of an hour learned from the poor wretch that hia captors met him on the road and gave him the choice of repeating a confession which they taught him or be- ing shot there and then by them. These men felt the negro would be shot or hanged as sooh as be began his ‘confession.’ and they would get the reward. We proved an alibi for the negro and the men who fixed up the job disappeared. “The next confession Was made by a half-witted Mexican whom an enterprising citizef' marched into town In front of a six- shooter. The Mexican Knew his plece well. He repeated it to the crowd In front of the courthouse. But kt Was not 4 con- vincing confession, Ss the Citizens’ Com- mittee persvaded thf mob to let the Mexi- can go to Jalil. into, took her to jall. MURDERER CANNOT BE CONVICTED, he had committed the murder for three days. We could get nothing out of him ex- cept a straight confession with all détails fitting nicely. I finally suddenly asked him who told him he had committed the mur- der, and he promptly replied with the name of the citizen who bad arrested. him. We proved an alibi for the Mexican and he was released without being charged with the murder. “Ther came a telegram from Fort Smith to the Sheriff declaring that the murderer was in jail at that place and was ready to confess. The Sheriff wired for the Fort Smith people to bring the man to G—. at their own expense, and that if he found that the prisoner had been intimidated into a confession he would prosecute somebody. “The fourth was like this: Two deputy sheriffs were taking a negro to the penl- tentiary for a short term. They were on the platform of a railroad train.. “There was no one but themselves and their prisoner on the platform. . Suddenly the two deputies rushed into the car erying for the crew to stop the train. They de- clared that thelr prisoner had leaped from the train with suicidal intent immediately after confessing that he committed the Hawkins murder. “The train was stopped and the negro’s body picked up. He was dead. The depu- ties claimed the reward. They were told quietly, though forcibly, that if they per- sisted in claiming the reward they might get themselves indicted for the murder of the negro. They lost all interest in the case at once. “The fifth confession came from a woman of bad reputation. She declared that a gam- bler with whom she had been in love and who had déserted her committed the deed. “My identity was not generally known In the town. I acted the role of Circult Judge to hear the woman's confession. The Sheriff brought the woman before me at the hotel where I stopped. “She repeated a clever story, probably _ correct In every detail except for the name _ of the murderer. She said the gambler had fallen in love with the Hawkins girl and she had jilted him for another man. He declared to this woman that he was going to kill Jennie Hawkins. She sald be obliged her (the speaker) to accompany him to the Bartlett house, and that she stood outside while he did the job. | declared that he used a butcher's cleavem= and that he threw the cleaver into a pond. “The gambler left town the next day and went to Los Angeles. At the end of the confession 1 declared that she was equally guilty with the gambler, and that since the State of Texas could not pay she, the confessed accessory before after the fact, should be held as the - cipal. I assured her that she would not B® — hanged, for they did not hang women ® Texas, but I told her she would certainly — be sent to the pententiary for life.

The Sheriff, following the plan agreed upon before the ruse was entered — The woman was op the verge of hysteria when the cell oe was closed beh'ind her. “The Sheriff then listened to her at ment. She said her confession was a of a scheme hatched by George Woods secure the reward. She and Woods areal to divide the $10,000. “We held the woman unt!! we ascertained that the gambler whom she accused wee in Dallas on the night Woods was an ex-employe of Grady.

During the next four years she bent all her energies to her work, and as a result success followed success in quick order. In 1885 she received honorable mention at the Paris Salon, a silver medal at Versailles, grand silver medal and prize at the Julien Academy and a bronze medal at the Unl- versal Exposition, Paris, which is equal to third mecal at the Paris Salon. In 1889 Miss Klumpke visited her native country and exhibited a splendid picture at the Academy of the Fine Arts in this city, which many will remember, entitled “In the Washhouse.”’ This picture, which took the gold medal, shows a group of in- dustrious workers in quaint costume, with earnest faces, intent on their labor. . Another picture painted by the artist is called ‘“‘Scheherezade,"”’ which was hung at the Salon last year and won the highest praise from art connoisseurs. The figure in the picture is a striking one. It shows a dreamy-eyed Arabian girl in picturesque costume. The face in this pictu:e, as in all the pictures shown by the artist, is its central light. The flesh tints are clear and meilow and the expression is curious'y life- like. One can imagine how delightful it would be to listen to the Princess’ weird and fantastical tales. Another striking canvas by her is “The Knitting Girl,’’ which was exhibited in the Paris Saton in 1887. Another of her pictures which has pecullar interest aside from its artistic ex- cellence is entiticd ‘At the Spinning Wheel.” It is a splendid Likeness of the woman who, when a young girl, posed for bi:let’s “Angelus,” On her return to Paris she exhibited one of her canvases at the Universal Exposl- tion and was honored with the bronze med- al, a prize much coveted by artists. Among the special and other exh.bitions made by the clever Amer.can woman were as fol- tows: Annual exhfbition at Rouen; Versailles Museum, St. Botoitph Club and Art Muse- um, Boston; World's Fair, Chicago; Nash- ville Exposition, and the Mark Hopkins In- stitute of Art, in July, 1897. If California has reason to be proud of the rema.kable protege of Mile. Bonheur, it may be almost equally so of Miss hlump- ke'’s four sisters. Nexc in age is Augusta, who ts herself a physician of high stand- ing and is the wife of one of the most distinguished practitioners in France.

MONG the feminine supporters—who A are many—of the Duke of Orleans, pretender to the throne of France, is one who in point of beauty, eclipeses almost every other woman in Europe. Her name is Mme. Porges and she ts a Jewess. If the Duke is not wholly desti- tute of gallantry, he should be quite as grateful for the championship of so lovely and distinguished a woman as for the 100,- 000 france which she recently sent—not the first of her gifts—for the benefit of the Roy- alist propoganda. It is not unlikely that Frenchwomen have a greater fancy for the glitter of mon- archy than the women of any other nation not already under the Imperial thumb of a Czar or Kaiser. Little Anna Gould, the Countess of Castellane, caught the fever, it will be remembered, and expressed her pre- judices in so unfortunately conspicuous a fashion that the whole affair had to be oromptly denied by her Republican rela- tives.. But the little Countess !s not the only wo- man in love with conspiracy and the vision of a throne. There is Mme. Jacques de Waru, for instance, who quite devotes her- Photograph from a portrait ia oil. ee RE be tes fy ot aS : ee eae ra aa 24 self to the collecting of franes for a Royal- ist conspiracy fund, but whose recent con- tributions were so carelessly handled by M. Buffet, the Duke’s represéntative, that they will serve little purpose. M. Buffet made formal written receipts for the money, which have been seized and will be used against him tn the Senatorial High Court. The disinterested Mme. de Waru contributed to the conspiracy fund 30,000 francs on her own account, as an in- stalment of 100,000 francs, and what is more important here she acted as the medium through which Mme. Porges’ 100,000 francs were sent to the Pretender. Anybody who knows anything about Roy- alist society would tell you that Mme. Porwes is the leading figure In it, and would very likely contend also, that she is the beauty of France.* Americans. may judge for themselves as to this from her portrait, yet, after all, in this case, one has to see the woman. ' Jewish though she is, an Austrian by birth, Madam has no Hebraic stamp upon her lovely face. Ghe is hardly French in appearance, and certainly not Austrian. There {s something of the look of Spain in her. And, indeed, her affiliations are large- ly Spanish. She ts tall, of an absolute sym- metry of figure, and with a nAtural nobil- ity that distinguishes her In any company. Indeed, hers {s the sort of beauty that over- whelms one at' first sight, rather than the kind that seems to grow under one’s eyes. She is as regally, impressively beautiful as an Eastern Queen ought to be, {[f Queens ever did, in reality, lve up to what tradi- t'or demands of them. Mme. Porges’ face is not as classical as | her figure, but its lines are strictly harmon- fous. Her skin is very dark, with a becom. ing rose tint In the cheeks. Her eyes are the most wonderful feature—black as,night, and as sombre, thelr form large and oval. — —— If you look deep into them you see fires’ smoldering, for the wealthy conspiratress has no deve-like personality. In face, Madame’s beauty lacks the most ordinary feminine qualities. She is note outwardly, at least—variable or capricious, and is ever appealing or submissive. She is, on the contrary, unyielding, immovable in her magnificence, as you could guess from the arch of her neck—nobody knows where she got her aristocratic lines—or) from the curve of her mouth when she smiles. It happens that there Is a M. Porges, but he does not even play the part of backe ground. Madame’s husband, having through clever business dealings accumulated Mad. | ame’s wealth and laid it at Madame’s feet, - now confines himself to banking for Made ame. Meanwhile Madame—and Monsieur Porges live in magnificent fashion, on @ ecale well sulted to Madame’s own imperial presence. rf Their town house, which ts built on the site of the late Prince Napoleon’s Pome peiian villa, is a marvel of luxury,.and the house warming which she gave on ent it was the most gorgeous affair of the ever seen in Paris. Then the Porges several other homes, but appear to be €OR~ tent with none of them, as Madame is now directing the building of a chateau near Rochefort. Gangs of workmen are toiling here night and day. It is said that Madame hopes through this to achieve the very 6Um- mit of her social ambition, which ts bat a modest one. ‘ As a loyal Royalist Mme. Porges is nature ally a Catholic, and all the more sealous, perhaps, for not having been born in the faith, The Mme. Porges—also a wealthy Royalist—who died in the Charity Basaar fire, was a cousin-in-law of the present beautiful supporter of the Duke of Orleans and his plots. y ———-s CORSETS LOSING FAVOR. It has been whispered that many of the graceful, lithe figures of society owe their beauty and suppleness to the abandonment of corsets. Whether this be true or not, it is a fact that some one !s wearing the dain- ty little satin girdles and-very low cut boneless bodices whch one sees displayed in the corset shops. The latest cut of gown makes this posible. Those who wear Prin- cesse gowns, however, while they are said to forego corsets, wear instead a boned bod- ice which fits the figure and even draws it in snugly from neck to hip, almost. This is not a departure of hygiene, although doubtless the women who wear these boned abominations think they are making a great concession when they give up the heavy stays. THE SMELL OF MONEY. Metals have no smell in themselves, but handling one !s the surest way of causing it to acquire its characteristic smell. Clean a penny and then hold it tn the hands a few seconds; the action will bring out the smell of copper. Leave it for a short time on a clean sheet of paper and you will find the odor has disappeared. Aluminum, tin and zinc smell much the same when rubbed with the fingers, but the odor is quite different from that pro- diced by brass, bronze, copper and Ger- man silver, which all give the characteristic copper smell. It is probably the chemical action of the moisture of the hands on the metals w | causes the smell. ow uP oa QUK HINTS FOR HOUSEWIVES. TO MAKE MIRROR VELVET.

go eee a a LONDON, Oct. 20, Bpecial Correspondence of Sunday Post-Dispatch. HACKERAY in “Vanity Fair’ ex- az plained ‘‘How to live on nothing a year,” and there are women as well @s men who do it to-day as successfully as little Becky Sharp. Indeed, the amazing adventures and achievements of Mrs. Howard Kingscote as a female chevalier d’industrie surpass those of Becky or any other heroine of fiction. Mrs. Kingscote has by her own actual ex- periences provided the writers of sensation- al stories with a few ideas which they might turn to valuable account. When in the early summer this lady's mame began to acquire unpleasing publicity, first as the cause of the failure of Lord Byron—he having accommodated her with $250,000—next for having brought two re- Bpectable old clergymen, the Rev. Scott- Tucker and the Rev. George Moore, like- wise into the bankruptcy court for $100,000 apiece, people who were in the know were not surprised. » “Ah, yes, poor ol4 Drummond-Wolff’s daughter was always a _ highfiler,’’ they raid. “The only wonder is that she has managed tq@ keep things quiet so long.” But seco, began to ask themselves who this Mrs. Howard Kingscote precisely was, and in the unraveling of her ances- try, the champions of heredity may find a field for fruitful investigation. Mrs. Kingscote, in the autoblography which she contributes to ‘‘Who’s Who,” cynically describes herself as ‘educated in the school for scandal,” as the author of some dozen books and as a traveler and lin- guist. She also boasts of having “enjoyed a varied and checkered career,”’ and as this was written In 18% she could to-day add some piquant details concerning that career to “Who's Who's” new edition. But her gifts and her proclivities, her au- dacities and her unashamedness will not astonish the students of Lombroso when they find that she is the grand-daughter of the volatile Dr. Joseph Wolff, and of Lady Georgiana Walpole, daughter of the second Earl of Oxford. Joseph Wolff, born in 17%, as a youth of 17 was turned out of his home for wanting to become a Christian. But having joined the Church of Rome he was presenily turned out of the College of Propaganda in Rome for not being Christian enough. Thereupon he entered the Redemptorist monastery of Val Sainte in Switzerland, but a few months of monkish austerity suf- ficed him. He escaped to London, joined the Church of England, and under the au- epices of the Bible Society began to pre- pare himself for the work of a missionary to the Jews. He traveled as missionary to Jerusalem, Cyprus, Bagdad and other places, and on his return to London, being then 80 years of age, married Lady Georgiana Walpole and became the father of an only child, Henry Drummond Wolff. Then he traveled again, wrote various books, and was a!to- gether a sufficiently extraordinary person. It.may well be from him that Mrs. King- ecote derives her linguistic and literary gifts: and her love of change. But the Walpole side of the family con- tributes likewise its ovota of oddness and of literary talent, and it Is from this side that Mrs. Kingscote gets her knowledge of society, her connections with the ‘‘smart set,”’ and that “smart” air which do such deadly work among the stolid, staring, open-mouthed, mute and awe-stricken British middle-class. Yes, ‘smartness’ suf- fices for the undoing of the Moores, the | Tuckers and others of that flk, but some- thing more is needed for the conquest of the Byrons and her other principal victims. That Mrs. Kingscote possesses this ‘‘some- thing more” she has abundantly proved. Without pretentions to beauty she posses- ses an ingratiating charm of manner which [EL SOR Fh BEE ag I EI RGR PITA LOS = AOL RNR I CIE be IE RES OB “ — P S ye ae 4 8 AS pet Be “ores ayes Re he ” wei te Y n oI * , 9 . fae : ¥ ‘ A ye y 2K) ANT aes Te Rt ete See yy Be So ee ee rage os . 5 he, WE hn eee op ete et ¥ oo en Mees . 5 2 f ta 4 “ 4 . : Se a at iP ES gaat oe Bee See’ Sohal . oP . £ + ’ * 4 : : : > ’ i aie’ Me Mie ye ee & om a ee wu) one mie Peli Bag ig ae Mrs. Howard Kingscote, Wife of a British Army Captain and Great-Grand- Daughter of an Earl, Plucked Millions From Foolish Men, Married One to Her Sister, and Wrote Novels—None as Thrilling as Her Own Life Story. would thaw an anchorite, and a ailver tongue which would charm a bird off a bough. She is what ts called a “fine look- ing’’ woman, with good eyes, a wealth of dark hair and.singwlarly graceful manners. The first indication that society obtained of Mrs. Kingscote’s peculiar financial deal- ings was in connection with a check given her by a multi-millionaire beer lord, whose ale is of world-wide renown. -It was defl- nitely stated that, belng pathetically im- pressed by her financial difficulsies, this old peer charitably gave her a’ check for $10,000, which, when presented at the bank, had increased to a sum he had no recollec- tion of parting with. But it was paid—after a struggle—and the elderly peer learned a lesson which his age and experience might have spared him. Mrs. Kingscote was then up to her eyes fn debt: she was borrowing money from the userer, Jay, of Jermyn street, at 60 per cent and $10,000 was but a drop in the ocean of her necessities. However, he paid up and did not prosecute, which goes to prove that the blood of a beer lord can be quite as chivalrous as the blood of a Plantagenet, Possibly too, he was afraid of that silver tongue of hers, for she can show a very rough side to it when her pigeons venture to resist her plucking of them, as mey be exemplified In the story of Lord Byron. Lord Byron, a collateral descendant of the poet, born in 1861, was something over 30 when he first met the siren who was to cost him so dear. Col. Kingscote had just been appointed Commanding Officer of the Forty-third Regimental District at Oxford, and Mrs. Kingscote cast about her eves for a suitable residence. She found a very charming one in the Beeches, in the neigh- boring village of Headlington. But the question was how to obtain it without cash or credit. And how to furnish it? To be sure, there, there was her friend, Lord Byron, ‘“‘the biggest idiot in England,’ as she amiably wrote to him after matters had become strained between them; why should he not have the privilege of supply- ing her needs? Say $100,000 for the house, $25,060 for the furniture, and—as it {s always well to have a margin—say $250,000 in all. But, with the modesty of true greatness, she did not count on Lord Byron handing her $250,000 for the sake of her beautiful eyes alone. She sought for some security to offer, and she found it in the genius of Dr. Ernest Kingscote, her husband’s broth- er. This gentleman gave out that he had in- vented a new material for the manufacture of boots—a waste material consisting elther of potato parings or cigarette ends, the writer cannot remember which, that would prove indestructible as the pyramids and effectually eradicate corns. Dr. Kingscote, being introduced to Lord Byron, informed him that a patent for this wonderful invention had been taken out in every country in Europe, that the United States had offered him $1,500,000 for the pat- ent in America alone, that he was in nego- tiation with the British War Office, and that he was about to revolutionize the boot department of the army and navy. He not only undertook to settle all Mrs. Kings- cote’s HMabilities the moment that the United States paid up, but he held out hopes of im- mense profits to obliging friends who would back her bills in the meantime. It was with this bait also that the two “old dears,’’ the Rev. Moore and the Rev. Tucker, were hooked, for there is no one like your British clergyman for reckless plunging in the hope of huge profits. All the benefit which Lord Byron received from the transaction, however, was a dozen of champagne sent him by Col. Kingscote, probably bought, as he pathetically admit- ted in the Bankruptcy Court, out of his own money, and given, the Registrar opined, with a keen sense of favors to come; the privilege of paying $35 for a drag ordered by the Kingscotes to take them to the Eton. and Harrow cricket match in 1897, and on which Lord Byron was their guest; and the lady’s writen testimony, cover her signa- ture, in 1899, that he, Byron, is ‘“‘the biggest cad, as well as the biggest idiot, in Eng- land.”’ That there is some truth !n the latter part ofthe statement he would probably now be the first person to admit. All that the two parsons derived from the affair was ruin for the Rev. Moore, vicar of Crowley, and chaplain to the forces under Col. Kingscote, and ruin. for the Rev. Tucker, vicar of Headlington, plus taunts from Col. Kingscote, plus a letter from Mrs. Kingscote, which the official re- ceiver described in court as being an “‘im- pudent letter,”” and the registrar stigma- tized as ‘“‘a letter of incredible cruelty.” Decidedly the silver tongue has a very rough side to it! Yet how asilvern that tongue must be which cannot only wheedle thousands of pounds out of a dozen different men, but can actually induce a man to marry 4&4 woman whom he does not know, whom he does not want to know, and who is old enough to be his mother, merely to gratify its owner’s caprice! For here begins the amazing history of Capt. Adams of the Fifth Lancers. One of the many tools which Mrs. Kings- cote kept fashioned to her hand was her brother’s widow, Mrs. Mary Stephanie Drummond-Wolff. In 1894 this lady was 45, was on the verge of bankrptcy, and ac- cording to her written admission had com- mitted ‘‘crimes” at the instigation and for the profit of Mrs, Kingscote. Justice was, in the autumn of 1894, track- ing down Mary Stephanie, and it occurred to Mrs. Howard Kingscote that she might save her tool—for future use—by. getting some one to marry her. How this was to save her the reader of the case scarcely gatherr, and to the writer of this article the idea appears rather as another of Mrs. Kingscote’s amusing and amazing deviltries. Be this as it may, before cooking her hare she naturally set to work to catch him, and she caught him {in the person of Capt. Adams, aged 28, of the Fifth Lancers. Him she invited to dinner: to the best lit- tle dinner which the head and hand of woman could devise, and her husband was most agreeable, and she plied him with ex- travagant flattery. She told him this charming woman, her own sister-in-law, stood on the brink of ruin, of despair, of suicide perhaps; she showed him—which is more than she can do anybody else—how nothing but an im- mediate marriage could savé her; and she spoke in glowing terms of the admiration, of the gratitude she personally would fee! for the man sufficiently noble thus to save a woman. And she rose from the table, still flushed and trembling from the stress of her emo- tions, all rustling with silks, all vaporous with laces, all shimmering with jewels, and smiled sweetly into the young man’s eye before vanishing from the room, the die was east; and when Col. Kingscote— well-trained husband—took up the theme, and half laughing, wholly earnest, said, “You're surely not going to marry Mrs. Drummond-Wolff, really, eh?’ the Cap- tin’s doom was sealed. ‘Indeed I am! I’d do anything to save a woman,” he declared, ‘‘and to please your wife.” Was it hypnotism? No other explanation seems possible, After this events marched rapidly. Capt. Adams was introduced to his bride on Nov. 1, and he was married to her on Nov. 7, at St. Margaret’s, Westminster. At the church door they parted—according to Mrs. Kings- cote’s promise—and presently our martial Quixote left for India to rejoin his regl- ment. ’ The newly made Mrs. Adams, an adven- turous lady quite after her sister-in-law’s heart, was not long before coming to the ecnclusion that she would like to go to In- dia, too, and she wrote according to Capt. Adams, to inquire if she should come. Im- agine the horror of young Quixote, the wild rush to the telegraph office, the concise ca- ble, ‘Certainly not!’ and then the unbur- dening of the whole strange story to his colonel. Wires were pulled, friends were set to work with the result that Mrs. Stephanie Adams wrote her savior the following hand. geome letter: My Dear William: I want yeu to have thie letter to show in case at any time there should be a misunderstanding, and that it should be thought that you have be- haved dishonorably to me. The marriage which took place between us on Nov. 7, '94, was arranged by Mrs. Howard Kingscote before you had seen me or I you. It was undertaken to save me from the effects of a crime I bad committed. At that time I was heavily in debt. I wae threatened with bankruptcy and also with worse trouble, as, for the sake of Mra, Howard Kingscote, I had committed perjury. ® only way for me to avold exposure and the consequence of these troubles wae for me to marry at once. At the request of Mrs. Howard Kingscote, and with my consent, you went through the marriage ceremony with me. _ I did it te save myself, but I have never been your wife except in name. You sacrificed yourself for me, and I undertook never to ask you to support me, You have behaved in a perfectly honorable Way to me throughout our acquaintance, and I can never thank you enough or be grate- ful enough for the sacrifice you have made for me. I hope no one will ever misun- derstand the facts of the case, which I have Stated here, and which actually occurred. am, HANID. That her gratitude was not mere empty words, Mrs. Stephanie Drummond-Wolff Adams at once proceeded to prove by pro- viding Don Quixote with every possible ground for obtaining a divorce. Her ad- ventures were many and various, but they don’t come into this story, except In so far as they enabled Capt. Adams to obtain his decree nisi on Aug. 8 of the present year, when Stephanie steps out into the night and Don Quixote breathes a free man again. An agreeable axiom still survives many painful bouleversements in Eugland. It ts that “‘the law {fs no respecter of persons.” But Mrs. Kingscote seems to have hypno- tized the Public Prosecutor, as well as her other victims. She has been found guilty of swindling, is charged with suborning perjury by her sis- ter-in-law. Still not only has no attempt been made to render her amenable to the law, but she actually treated the Court In Bankruptcy with calm contempt, refusing to answer any of its summonses to come up for examination in connection with the case of the gentleman ashe ruined. Still, of course, “the law is no respecter of persons.” But if you happen to be an Ambassador's daughter, have married into a family closely associated with royalty, as the Kingscotes have been for genera- tions, and if you fall into habits of the kind Mrs, Kingscote has cultivated, you may apparently escape consequences that would swiftly fall upon any one less fortunately circumstanced. The fact remains that there has been no effort made to take Mrs. Kingscote to task, and when her husband was brought before the court to give evidence of his wife's whereabouts, he left the witness stand without giving the slightest information on that point. No doubt when Mrs. Kingscote can steal a leisure half hour from the claims of bill- backing and society, she will weave the above into a ‘‘shilling shocker” with her usual rapidity and want of skill. All things considered, she is a prolific writer, and her great alm in this line, as in every other, is to be “‘in the swim.” John Lane brought out “The Woman Who Did,”’ and followed it up by ‘“‘The Woman Who Didn’t.”"” Mrs. Kingscote sat down and over her pseudonym, ‘Lucas Cleeve,”’ dashed off “The Woman Who Wouldn't.” But it was the publisher who wouldn't this time; he had had women enough and so he sent her elsewhere. The next sensation in the book world be- ing Marie Correll’s ‘‘Barabbas,”” ‘‘Lucas Cleeve’’ turned likewise to the Bible for a subject. and brought out ‘‘Lazarus.”’ This faiMfre should teach Mrs. Kingscote to speak for future with her own voice, instead of trying to echo the far less S8®- ductive accepts of Sthers, and if she would write us the above history of Capt. Adams with al] that wealth of detail which she is 80 Well fitted to supply, she would be certain to command success. Or. there is that story of an amazing marriage, also engineered by her, in which she persuaded an Earl to marry the daugh- ter of a Regent street modiste, and per- suaded the modiste to accept the Earl as a son-in-law in settlement of Mrs. Kings- coe’s huge dressmaking bill. The young lady herself could boast of a singular career, having been married al-~ ready to a British officer in India, who en- deavored to sell her to the Rajah of Pa- tlala, while, as every one knows, Patiala has an “east of Suez’’ record all his own. But how she discovered the plot, how she gave her husband the slip, and how she obtained her-divorce at Allahabad do not come into this story at all. Enough, how- ever, has been said to show that quite apart from the necessity of settling the dressmaking bill the adventures of the fair divorcee were exactly such as to arouse the disinterested’ sympathies of “Lucas Cleeve.” In conclusion, if that sprightly lacy woul@ write us a veracious narrative of her own emotions and/experiences we might @ sure her ofa phenomenal success, and sug- gest that she publish it under the title of “Fhe Woman Who Did Every One and How She Did It.” SSS “IVIPERIAL CESAR TURNED TO CLAY.” HEN Shakspeare caused Hamlet to W exclaim: ‘‘Imperial Cesar, dead and turned to clay, may stop a hole to keep the wind away,’ he seemed to have reached the topmost extravagance of imagination. Yet near the Porta Salaria a sfill more unexpected extravagance was revealed after the excavations carried on there. In these a cippus, or sepulchral column, con- taining a cinerary urn of rare Oriental alabaster was brought to light. The in- scription on the cippus revealed that the ashes contained within the urn were those of Calpunius Piso Licinianus, who, in Feb- ruary, A. D. 69, was proclaimed Cesar by the Emperor Galbra. Four days afterward Galbra was killed, and Piso also suffered death in his Sist year. His were the ashes that the alabaster urn contained. The precious urn was given to a work. man employed on the premises to take care of. Some days after, when the pro- prietor of the place asked for the urn, he found it empty. : “Where are the asi that were here™ nf he asked. 2 The workman, surprised, sala that he gathered them together and, never ing that they were any good, but white and clean, sent them to his wife . make lye for her washing! b ‘And thus,” said the late Shakspeafe” Wood, describing the incident, “have the ashes of an imperial Cesar, adopted by” Galbra as Tiberius was adopted by Augus-’ tus, and accepted by the Senate, been used’ more than 18 centuries after his death by a Roman washerwoman to cleanse her dirty linen, , anes —_—_ McKINLEY AND BRYAN AS THE YEARS HAVE ALTERED THEN Best picture of William McKinley, taken just before} Latest photograph of President McKinley, showing wear!

By heroic work on the part of the students, the library and most of the furniture were saved. Only two s¢hool days were missed on ac- count of this catastrophe. The people of Carbondale threw open their halls and churches for the use of the State, and the classes were continued es usual, though at a great disadvantage. The city built a tem- porary structure, which was completed in- side of sixty days, and this was then occu- pied. In 1886 the Legislature appropriated $152,- 065 to replace the first building, and Feb. 24, J887, the present building was opened for school purposes. The resignation of Dr. Allyn brought to the head of the insiitution John Hull, an educator of wide experience. Owing to ill health he remained only a year. He was succéeded by Dr. H. W. Everest, a college president of great reputation. Dr. Evercst followed the late President Garfield as president of Hiram College, in Chio.

His work and that of his predecessors among the 600 students of the Southern Iilinols Normal has wrought wonders for that sec- tion of the State.

The Eastern Illinois State Normal Uni- versity at Charleston was located by a vote of the board of trustees, Sept. 7, 1895, after intense rivalry among the leading towns of the eastern part of the State, in a dis- trict comprising twenty of the richest coun- ties. Charleston won by donating $75,000 to the school, including the tract of thirty acres now occupled by the building and campus. The total cost was $250,000. The corner stone was laid May 27, 1895. The dedication took place Aug. 29, 1899, and the building was opened Sept. 12. On the first day 124 students were enrolled and by Oct. 1 the number had increased to 160, ex- clusive of .90 children tn the training de- partment The building is solidly constructed, finely finished and handsomely furnished. The assembly room, seatin® over 600, and the president's office are richiy decorated. No expense was spared by those having the work in charge to make the building a model in every respect. It is 340 feet long and nearly 200 feet wide. It contains thirty recitation rooms, a library, a gymnasium, a laboratory, cloak rooms, reading rooms and other necessary apartments. Dr. Livingston C.

All of Which She Does for a Consideration. HE geisha first came into evidence T about the middle of the last century. She has little history. Her first reg- ular home was in Fukugawa, in the pur- lieus of the shrine of the war god, Hachi- man, situated on the River Sumida. Tea- houses, of course, had long been in exist- ence and the various patrons of these houses had to content themselves with meager entertainment. The centuries of peace under the Tokugawa dynasty, when the samoura!l and daimio were compelled to keep and maintain the peace, and the artisan, merchant, common citizen and peasant went their respective ways unmo- lested, brought a grateful relief to the na- ion exhausted by internecine war. Previous to that time the lives of the samoura! and the daimio were full of action. Under the new order of things, with no employment whatever, they lived at ease, with the un- derstanding that they must always be ready to take up the sword and give their lives for their lords. In consequence of this life of inactivity and idleness a natural list- lessness soon made itself manifest among them and the samoura! cast about them In a lazy but deliberate fashion for new means of entertainment and amusement. Then it was that the geisha came into existence, sweeping all before her by her remarkable talent, vivacity and mirth, which were re- freshing and highly appreciated by the jaded appetites of the samoural, daimlo, and, indeed, all classes of people. In a short time her popularity was such that no party was thought to be complete with- out her infectious gayety and wit to rob it of insipidity. Onoto Watanna, writing of her tn the Woman's Home Companion, says: A popu- lar geisha is called to several houses in the course of a day or evening. She will charge only % sen for half an hour, but she gen- erally receives three times this amount in tips and fees from the guests. Of' course, the regular tea and geisha houses pay her a certain salary, according to her ability. But this salary is usually very small. Her chief duty is to amuse. A geisha must be highly accomplished. While not by any means a musician, she must be able to perform on the samisen, koto, tzu- zum! (a drum), and other musical instru- ments. She dances, and talks on the light- est subjects, and always holds herself in readiness to entertain her guests, according to their mood. A witty geisha, one who is a good talker, pretty and graceful, will not lack employment at any time and gen- erally make a very g00d living. While {t is not at all necessary for her to arouse mirth, her object must be to beguile the time that Is irksome to her guests. Thus it often happens that one feeling depressed will send for a geisha girl. She will have tact enough to study the temper of her patron. It might be necessary for her to laugh and chatter, sing, dance, ete. On the other hand, she need only talk very gently and sympathetically to him or en- gage him In some Interesting conversation, or she may not have to do more than mere- ly by her presence remove the sense of loneliness and depression. The more mag- netic her personality, the more likely ts she to succeed. She studies her roles thorough- ly and seidom fs at @ loss. In fact, for all occasions she usually has a Iittle pro- gramme of her own, which her guest or patron never would have suspected, for the geisha is a natural actress. Her taste in dress is exquisite and her movements in- comparable in grace. It is a delight mere- ly to watch an accomplished geisha as she moves and few would suspect that every movement she mekes is the result of many hard hours of study. Of course, I speak here of the more accomplished and refined geisha, for by no means do we find the geisha girl in general altogether charm. ing. Tbe geisha has at her parallel thd world over, for unlike other women of her class she always retains her native modesty and grace. A successful geisha, besides her good looks and graceful manners, must show good taste In dressing herself and also in the arrangements of hér hair. Accord. ing to a Japanese idea the harmonious col- ors In her gowns blend in an unsurpassed way. Moreover, everything about her dress is “‘smart.’’ Her hair is exquisitely dressed and adorned with kanzashi, jeweled pins (when she can afford them), and natural flowers, popples being the favorite. The style of dress of the geisha differs in each district. She will teach and play any num- ber of odd and pleasing games, and thus beguile your time There are three classes of geisha, the jimaye, kakaye and the taki-wake. The jimaye being her own mistress and owning her own house is the freest and best off of all The kakaye, or ordinary geisha girl, is poor, and enters service in a geisha- house for a certain term, according to her age and attractions. She is given her boar4 and lodging and olothes and a tithe of her earnings, though where her master or mis- tress is hard this latter is begrudged to her, and she has to satisfy herself by getting what gratuities she can from her patroms. Her life is not happy, though a jimaye will sometimes employ a couple of kakaye in Ber own house, and in such cases she its better off than in a regular geisha-house. It is not always an easy matter to enter service in a geisha-house. Before doing #0 the girl must apply in person for a licensé at the metropolitan police board. Here she is warned of the temptations of the new life she wishes to enter. If she stil) pefsists she is then put through an examination, and should she trip in the catechism the license Is refused, The class of geisha called the taki-wake has both money and ability, but being un- familiar with locality and rules pertaining to the profession, she puts herself in charge of a geisha of established reputation, and agrees tu share with her her earnings. The very young geishas are called the hang-yoku, or half-fees, and they are per- mitted to charge but half that charged by the older ones. They generally run bee tween the ages of 13 to 15 years, and are bound to serve from five to seven years. They are, in fact, but apprentices during the time of service, and have to be Instruct- ed in all the geisha accomplishments. By the time they have learned ali the arts of the profession their term expires, and they are at liberty to go where they will. Tae iife of the hangyeku tis very hard during the term of service, as she is forced to per- form the most menial work, particularly if she shows herself prone to ‘‘tea-grinding”’ or is a “stay-at-home.” After being entertained by the geisha & guest usually has a bill presented to him by the tea house, which he settles with the head of the house, throwing tn an extra tip for the geisha personally. The charge Is usually 2 sen a half hour. Time is measured by the burning of a joss stick, which takes about half an hour. For a full evening’s entertainment four oe sticks about estimate the time.

Naturalist and Explorer LONDON, Oct. 23. Special Correspondence of Sunday Post-Dispatch. URGEN JOHANSEN, newly arrived in a Hamburg, has had probably the most extraordinary experiences in the Philippine Islands of any living man. He has long been fam!liar with the least visited parts of the archipelago, and two years ago he was sent to discover fresh varieties of deer for the collection of the Duke of Bed- ford, at Woburn Abbey. The Duke of Bedford prides himself on having a menag- erie without rival. To-day men are scour- ing many barbaric lands to obtain fresh species for him. Jurgen Johansen was known for his skill and boldness as a hunter and for his powcr of conciliating savage people. He knew there were hitherto undiscovered deer in the Philippines, and before he had been there long he got together magnificent col- lections, such as no white naturalist had ever seen. But he left the islands not many weeks ago, with his collections de- stroyed and his personal belongings stolen. During the hottest fighting between Spnn- iards and Americans and Filipinos he spent long periods in the rebel centers at contin- val risk of his life. He was made familiar with the aspects of native life which had been revealed to no others save Jesuit priests and Franciscan friars, who lived among the people. He was once nearly killed as an Americar spy. He spent weeks starving and almost naked in the wild jungle to avoid flerce pursuers. A correspondent of the Sunday Post-Dis- patch visited Hamburg to induce Johansen to tell his adventures. The traveler, modest man, has no desire to linger on horrible details. The points of his story had literal- ly to be dragged out of him, and he was specially anxious to avo'd anything which could be considered as a critieism of the American soldiers in the islands. 3ut un- derlying his every word was a plainly evi- dent belief that the American Government has not yet realized the task that is before it if it to conquer the Philippines. “The Philippines to-day,"’ he told me, in a state of practical anarchy. hardly realize that the Ameri only occupy the smallest fraction the territory. Enormous tracts haye only not been penetrated by the American sol- diers, but the natives scarcely know what an American is like. The people have only heard about you by the most distant rumor. They have learned to hate the Americans with.a bitterness which leaves quite in tne shade their forméy hatred of the Spaniards. “You can form no idea of the bitterness of their feelings. Proud, as they are—and they are far prouder than any Spaniard— they look on themselves as the aristocracy of mankind and as an invincible race. The distant islanders laugh at the idea of white men being able to subdue them. They keep up their spirits by relating stories about the miseries they may expect if the American Government rules over them. “I was curious to know why they hated Americans much, and I often asked the people. me give one typical reply: “If the Americans come to our town,’ one Fagalo told me, ‘I will be ruined.

Owners a knife into me. But they shall never come! never! never!’ ‘The general feeling in the islands is that Americans are monsters, cruel beyond conception. No doubt this feeling has been systematically spread by priests among the people generally. The priests reoognize that if the American Government were estab- lished their former power would cease, and so they have used all their influence to make American rule impossible. “The — as you know, were tHe rulers of every part of the Philippines, ex- cept the main towns, until the rebellion. The Filipinos are quick in changing a lik~« into a dislike. love to hatred and scorn to love. Two years ago they hated every Spaniard. Now they a‘most regard the Spaniards as their friends. The Spa: ‘ards and the priests have united to spread abroad, by every means In their power, in- credibly horrible stories about the ways o the Americans. “TI knew the Philippines well long before the rebellion against the Spaniards, I have been on trading expeditions all through the islands, and I long since discovered what the American speculators now waiting in Manila will learn—that any idea of ut!iz:ng the Philippines for great industrial under- takings will come to nothing. The natural wealth of the islands is enormous. The soil is fertile beyond belief. The climate is comparatively healthy, without yellow fever or other similar scourage. The great forests seem to invite the speculator to make his fortune: : “But this natural wealth is rendered use- less through the fact that you can get no labor. The Fillpinos will not work. The little they want they can easily get, and good pay will not tempt them. So long as they can watch a cock-fight and bet on a cock- fight they are happy. Gambling ts their passion; stabbing their amusement “TI know @ man from Borneo who wanted to start woodcutting. I told him his at- tempt would come to nothing, but he re- fused to believe me. He got 50 natives to- gether, and for a day or two was confident of success. But his expedition did not set out. First one delay oceurred, then ancther, Now the men were off for a cock-fight; now they were busy on something else. I saw him a little later, and asked him how he had got on. ‘Those —— scoundrels,’ he said, ‘refuse to do anything! It’s no good trying to do anything with such a peopie. I have given up the attempt.’ ‘In the davs of Spanish rule trade was practically in the hands of the Chinese. When our coasting steamers stopped at any strange port we would put one question: ‘Are there any Chinese here?’ If there were we knew we would be able to do some trade. If there were none we went away again. A Chinaman can make money any- where. “But there is little or no chance for the American or European business man in the Philippines. When I was in the Philip- pines, before the rebellion, there was great discontent with Spanish rule. One continual- ly heard of Spanish sentries being shot, and the soldiers themselves were discon- tented with the Government.

In January last I went to Malolos, with the-knowledge and permis- sion of Gen. Otts, to see Aguinaldo. I was anxious to get to the islands of tre south. and I believed that a pass from Aguinaido would insure a safe conduct.”’ “What do you think of Aguinaldo?”’ I asked. “T can not sav that I entertain so high an impression of his abilities as some peo- ple seem to do. But you can not form much idea of a man who is surrounded by seniries, and before whom vou have humbiy to make a petition. I told him what I wanted. He said he would give me a pass, but could not be sure that it would be of any use. The people I intended visiting might not recognize it, he sa’d. He prompt- ly asked me bow much I had formerly paid the Spanish authorities for a similar pass. I repiied that I had given $). ‘Weii,” he said, ‘you must pay me $20 now, for we want all the money we can get.’ I paid him $20 and received my pass. “Coasting steamers go from Manila to various points on the islands, and have, I believe, been one of the chief causes of the spread of the rebellion. They are mostly manned by Taga!os, the great tribe of which Aguinaldo is one, and all Tagatos stick together like pitch to tar. They are one people, and they do everything for each other They are the most active of the natives, and vou find them everywhere. Even the American steamers have to em- ploy them. They make It their business to whisper horrible stories of American cruelty, of native triumphs, of the glories of Aguinaldjo. They ever work to inflame the native against the white man. “T was told a lot of animals could be had in Mindanao, and I wen: there, landing at Davao. I saw Mantoute, President of the State, and he gave me favorable accounts of the piace. If I staved, he said, I would find all the animals I wanted, and it would be easy to get away when I wished, for a steamer called everv month, and woud tak» me further. I settled down with Mantoute, engaged a native boy, and prepared an ex- pedition.

KARATS my ‘Va ALVES 2 350 000 MISS VIRGINIA EARLE, an acirzss widely known and favorably received in St. L- ‘USp owns many gems which she wore when she posed for the Sunday Post-Dispatch Photographer. LAMONDS are going up. An advance iT) of 6 per cent has already been de- creed upon them by the great Ve Beers syndicate of Kimberley, and furt'ser advances in price will be compelled by fle war in South Africa. The effect of the rise in diamonds may be shown in this picture of Virginia Earle. Some time ago the Sunday Post-Dispatch arranged for a pictufe of Miss Earle, to be taken wearing $1,000,000 worth of diamonds. No woman before ever wore sucha weight of diamonds. To-day the value of the gems shown would be over a million and a half, and in no long time their value will reach the enor- mous figure of $2,000,000, or evan more. The value of Queen Victorta’s Koh-i-Noor will have bounded up from $600,000 to $1,- 200,000. ‘ This is the cold and sctentific estmate of jewelers, based upon size and quality. Yet in the inconceivable case that this historic gem were on sale many a millionaire ould pay $5,000,000 to say: “ft own Koh-l- Shosr Above § karats the value of diamonds de- pends largely upon their Historic tegport- ance. Such stones as the “@hah"’ and the “Orloff” are of really unlimited value. Even by the cold rule of the jewelers, France's great diamond, the “‘Regent,’’ has jumped from $2,000,000 to 34.000,000. Mrs. J. Pierpont Morgan will gain $1,900,000, and the smart set of New York. on the whole, wii! be more than $25,000,000 richer. Ninety-five per cent of the diamonds tin the market come from South Africa, and this supply is now closed. The mines at Jaagersfontein and Bloemfontein are in the hands of the Boers, and Kimberley is so war-worn that not a single dlamond can be obtained from that vicinity. Unless these conditions are reversed with- in a few weeks a diamond famine must result. The diamond output of South Africa is controiled by the De Beers Mining (‘om- panies, and every diamond is sold direct to the diamond syndicate syndicate in Lon- don. For some time the crop of diamonds has been diminishing, while the demand has been increasing. The consequence has been that the syndl!- cate has been doing business for oniy two hours each day, and sometimes before the expiration of that time they have been forced to close and walt for more gems. At present there are two consignments of gems upon the ocean. They will have been received within two weeks. In another week, unless the price is made prohibitive they will all be sold Then there will be no more diamonds un- til the British have driven the Boers away from Kimberley. Of course there will be the product of other mines which will drib- ble into London—§20,000 worth a week. But that will not be a drop in the bucket. The == syndicate has been handing $20,000.C00 werth a z of diamonds a year, and of those $19.0a,008 worth came from South Africa.

TONE Teng deeh SR ss. HOW TO ATTAIN SICAL LOVELINESS. ee ne PBB DD A Series of Lessons in Answers to Sunday Post-Dispatch Read- ers’ Inquiries by Harriet Hub- bard Ayer. Cure for Enlarged Fores. BOSTON.—Continue the use of the face brush. There is no better treatment for en- larg:d pores. You must not expect mira- cles. The pores have been stretched for years by the clogged secretions. It willi take time for them to contract, but the brugh will finally bring them to a norma! size. The Annual Hair Falling. A. B., Council Bluffs, Io.—Peroxide of hydrogen will not affect the curl in your hair. If your hair comes out badly each autumn I should try to break it of such a bad habit by using a good tonic or hair food for some time previous to the annual falling out. I am getting very favorable reports from the Jaborandi tonic. Here it is: as Sulphate of quinine, 40 grains; tincture of nux vomica, 2 drams; tincture of cap- sicum, 1 dram; fluid extract of jaborandi, 4 drams; spirit of rosemary, 1 ounce; glycer- ine, 4 drams; rosewater, 8 ounces. Rub well into the scalp every night as long as hecessary. The brush you mention is not the correct one. Certainly if you under- ‘stand the muscular contsruction of your face you can give yourself massage with excellent results. Time to Wean This Baby. READER.—If the baby is big and strong you can wean him now, as he is within '@ few weeks of his first birthday and you are so weak and miserable. A year-old baby can be put upon a diet largely composed of milk, to which you may adi one of the best infant foods and gradu- ally enlarge by the addition of various simple dishes. The first fuod you mention in your letter is the best, in my opinion. I give you a remedy in an old-fashioned and excellent tonic: Orange peel, 1 ounce; chamomile flowers, 1% ounces, and a little ginger. Put in one pint of boiling water; add a wineglassful of brandy. Take ® wineglassful twice a day. Restoring Drooping Eyelids. MRS. L., Jerome, Ariz.—The droop. in the eyelid can be cured by proper massage with electricity. Requires Scalp Massage. ADA R.—When the hair falls out so per- sistently despite the use of good tonics it ig a sure indication that it requires other treatment. Scalp massage properly given will arrest falling hair so speedily that it almost seems miraculous. Be sure you se- lect @n operator who throoughly under- stands her business. and try it. I'm sure that is what you require. Never Too Late. THIRTY-SEVEN YEARS OLD —Try this liquid whitener: One quart water (previous- ly boiled and strained), alcohol, 30 drops: oxide of zinc, 1 ounce; bichloride of mer- cury, 8 grains; glycerine, 2 drops. Take 4 ounces of the water and heat it to boiling: Gissolve the bichloride of mercury in this hot water and add the alcohol. Mix the zinc and glycerine together in a bow!; pour the larger portion of the quart of water in: stir, then add all the diluted bichloride of mercury and alcohol. Bottle and shake always before using. Apply the liquid with a seoft velvet «ponge. Eyebrow and Eyelash Grower.—Red vase- line. 2 ounces; fincture cantharides, % ounce; oll of lavender, ofl of rosemary, 15 Grops each. Apply to the eyebrows with a tiny toothbrush once a day until the growth is sufficiently stimulated; then less often. This ofntment may be used for the eyelashes also. In this case it should be very carefully applied. It will inflame the eyes, as any oil will, if it gets into them. Dumbbell exercises will greatly assist in developing the bust. You require besides yocel culture and massage. At 37 woman is scarcely in her prime, but, of course, you are not too old. Patience Is Necessary. YOUR HUMBLE SERVANT —It takes a Jong time to cure enlarged pores, and the | only way I know of is by the use of the | gerubbing brush and a pure hygienic soap. By this process the pores, which have be- enlarged by the clogged secretions, re kept free and gradvally they will con- ract and become normal in size. I know if thousands of cures effected in this man- ¥ drops. (previously bolled and strained), alcohol, “80 drops; oxide of zine, one ounce; bichlor- _ide of mercury, e'ght grains; glycerine, 20 Take four ounces of end heat it to bo.ling; dissolve the bichlor. ide of mercury in this hot water and add the alcohol. Mix the zine and glycerine together in a bowl: pour the larger por- tion of the quart of water in; stir, then add all the diluted bichioride of mercury and alcohol. Sottle and shake always be- fore using. Apply the liquid with a small, soft velvet sponge. To Get Rid of Fat. AN ADMIRER, Elkton, Ky.—Fat is car- bon, and oxygen consumes or burns cut carbon. It is not necessary, however, for one to take the manufactured ogygen to eliminate fat. Exercise accelerates the cir- sgulation, driving the blood through the veins, filling the lungs with oxygen, which must consume carbon, or fat. If you have ever noticed you must have observed that the men and women who live constantly in the open air, mountaineers, for example, who are great walkers and Keep the blood constantly oxygenated, are seldom fat. This is because they consume or burn out the fat by continuous physical activiiy in the open. In ordinary life a diet which will forbid all cereals, sweets and starches is necessary for the reason that we do not get enough of out-door exercise to keep the fat down. You will have to send me your address for information concerning the me- chanical annliance you write of. Caiomel is a certain form of mercury, and mercury used in many skin diseases. A good almond cream is efficacious sometimes for whitening the face. Cure for Pimpl:s. STELLA.—Try Foseati cream for pim- p.es. The formula: Lanoline, 5 granis; sweet almond oil, 5 grams; sulphur, prec.pi- tated, 5 grams; oxide of zinc, 2% grams; violet extract, % gram. Place the sulphur and zinc first in the mortar, then add the aimond oil, a little at a time, until a smooth paste is formed; next add lanoline and v.o- let extract. Keep in ointment boxes. Ap- Ply a very little of the ointment to each pimple. Make the application at night and let the cream remain on until morning. Wash away with water and a pure hy- gienic soap. L. E, M.—TIry this ointment for the red spots which the pimples have left: nitrate of bismuth, 1 dram; powdered ar- rowroot, 1 dram; ointment of benzoated ox- ide of zinc, 1 ounce; mix. Apply once or twice a day. Shampoo for Dry Hair. A READER.—Where the hair is so dry the egg shampoo is better than the one made with soap. Shampoo your hair at least once a week with this: Yolk of one egg, one pint of hot rain water, one ounce of spirit of rosemary; beat the mixture up thoroughly and use it warm, rubbing it well into the skin of the head. Rinse thor- oughly in several waters. This wash is good for dandruff where the ordinary sham- poo faliis. To Beautify the Hands. MRS. J. C. C.—The hands respond readily to proper treatment. To render the texture of the sk.n finer get a large pair of soft kid gloves, three or four sizes in advance of the number you usua’ly wear. Rip them open and spread the insides with this prepa- ration: Refined pine tar, 1 teaspoonful; Olive oil 1 pint. Melt in a water bath and perfume according to your taste. Before retiring wash your hands thoroughly with warm water and a gluten soap, rinse and dry them thvoroughly. Wear the g‘oves at night as long as necessary. This treat- ment will refine and beautify the skin great- is ly. Fat and Scant of Breath. G. O.—I give you the rules for the obesity treatment with pleasure. If you follow them you are bound to get thinner. Avoid all starchy and sweetened food, all cereals, vegetables containing sugar or starch, such as peas, beans, corn, potatoes, etc. Have your bread toasted: sprinkle it with salt instead of butter. Milk, I regret to say, if it be pure and good, is fattening. Hot water is an excellent substitute for other liquids. Add a little of the juice of limes or lemons to it, if you choose. Limit your sleeping hours to seven at the outside. No naps. You must take exercise. If you cannot walk at least _five miles a day and do not wheel, go to one of the institutions where mechanical massage is given. Several of my correspondents report excellent results from this method of get- ting the vigorous exercise they require. ‘The system is thoroughly wholesome and not expensive. In reducing flesh the one fact to recollect is that fat is carbon— oxygen destroys or burns out carbon. You must consume the carbon by the oxygen you take through your lungs. The more exercise the more oxygen and consequent destruction of fat by the one healthful method of curing obesity. The more starch and sugar you eat the more carbon to burn away. # ADVICE w BY [WARGARET KENT To Readers of the Sunday Post-Dispatch Who Have Sought Aid in Their Do- mestic Troubles.

Margaret Kent: Dear Madam—My husband is a traveling man, and away from home a gool deal. I have lived p- eases her. a mother and sister for the past four it seems impossible for me to get along with the old lady. She is very cross, and these last four years, sickly. If she asks me to do anything for her I do it willingly, yet nothing When my husband comes home from with his years. Now, a trip she tells him I starve her, I did not read his letters (to me) to her, and I go out toe much. She says it is my duty to stay home with her. She never goes out. My husband never says much, only gives a sigh. He says he wishes he knew what to do. He is an only child, and says he RIGHT AND WRONG WAY TO HOLD A SKIRT. ——eEE THE RIGHT WAY UNGRACEFUL AND UNSUCTI - FROM PHOTOGRAPHS TAKEN FOR THE SUNDAY POST-DISPATCH. S THERE are many women, so there A are many ways by which they lift their skirts, Scarcely two of them perform this seem- ingly simple manipulaticu of the dress alike and not one in 10 does it correctly, or s0 that it is at the same time graceful and effective. One pardons the energetic woman who jerke her ekirt to ea rather higher altitude than s@emes necessary. She may de un- graceful, but her skirt at least clears the ground, But the listless, indolent woman who (rails her ruffles in bDiissful unconsciousness through dust and mire should not De toler- ated. She probably thinks she is stylish and extravagant, ‘f she thinks about it at all. Her fellow-citizeng thing unmention- able things, and take delight in trampling the flowing draperies under foot whenever opportunity offers. The correct way to lift a skirt ts to gath- er it neatly with the right hand, about eight inches from the waist line in the back. Then lft it straight up, until the hem ciears the ground by three or four inches, This is the way to lift @ skirt, and the only % PR an pa , PM ETS Mp oe AR Re Sea. «: eae gh ae p> aM lle Re Pe tte ene way. Don’t for anything lift it with bpth hands. It is unnecessary and pulls the skirt out of shape. N Don’t lift it from the front. This method may be graceful, but it is ineffective. And don’t above all things let your skirt drag. Remember that cleaniiness is next to God- liness, and the woman who drags her skirts cannot keep them or her ankles clean, and is in danger of carrying home the germs of disease and death in her street-eweeping draperies.

A week ago she told him how all afternoon I never offered ber a drink of milk. He got angry and told me to pack my trunks and get out. I packed them, but he seemed to have felt sorry, and wouid not let me go. Now, I think I ought to leave the house and go to work, yet I don’t know what to do. I must admit I am getting so thin, and I am fretting all the time and crying. Our re- ligions are different. I thought that might make trouble. I am only 23 years old, and the mother of a boy 4 years and 2 months old. E. 8. F. I think under the circumstances your husband should give you a separate home with your child. No man has a right to expect his wife to suffer the indignities you speak of. It would be very admirable of you, if you can do so, to try and bear with the mother. and perhaps as she Is old and ill one of these days, if there is no one eise to look after her, you might re- gret having left her. But the fact remains the same, that no man is justified in put- ting his ‘wife into the position you~ oc- cupy. A man promises to love and cher- ish his wife; he has not the right to permit her life to be made wretched even by his mother. . Would Be a Nursery Governess. Margaret Kent: Dear Madam—I am a widow, 22 years old. iI have had a great deal of sorrow in my life. My mother died when I was 8 years old, and my edu- cation was neglected. I have done hard work since I was 12 years old. I had typhoid fever a year ago, which has left me unable to continue hard work. Woull you kindly let me know the duties of a nursery governess, and what wages they revelve, and if you think I would be capable of such work. I am very fond of children. I had one child, which I lost 18 months ago. I have always had a desire to become a nurse in a hospital, and have studied a great deal, but I have varicose veins. Would that prevent me from becoming a nurse? H. BE. M. I think from the character of your letter you could be successful as a nursery gov- ernece. The duties are those of a nuree and a governess combined. The nursery governess takes ent're care of her little charges night and day. She sieeps ‘n the room with them or near them, attends to all their personal needs, just as an ordinary nuree would. In aristocratic families the nureery governess eats with her charges also, their meals being separate.y served. A competent nursery governess must be a woman of sufficient education and refine- ment to teath the rudiments at least of Eng ish, anl also to get an examp-.e in the small amenities observed by people of ed- ucation and refinement. A competent nur- sery governeés has usually taken a course ‘'n the kindergarten system and speaks French or German, or both. Your best pian for securing such a poelition as you desire wou.d be to advertise. I am sorry to say I do not think you would be received as a probationer In any of the training schools. The varicose veire would make you inejigi- ble. Why do you not try to get a position as experienced nurse for an infant? In many fam/lies such a position woud be an excellent, responsible and well paying one, and the duties less arduous than those of a@ nursery g0V erness. The Wicked Anonymous Writer. Margaret Kent. Dear Madam—!I would be obliged if you could ad- vise me as to what course | should take in this matter. Il am a young Man of good reputation, am making a good ealary and have excelient pros pects. About nine months ago I met a young lady to whom I became very mach attached, and, after showing her much aitention agd reapecting ber in every way, one evening asked to become my wife. Previous ‘co (his time séme one who was jealous of my friendship to the lady circulated some bad reports sbeut my character, and, not satisfied with this, wrote some anonymous letters to her parents, who forbade her to have anything more to do with me, Nevertheless ber father did not believe it, and openly sald so, Ff id not know anything of this, and upon my next visit was treated coldly, and after « sbort time left the house and never went to it again. anonymous and were were out together a great many times, but finally one night, after a long talk, decided te be friends, and that was the end. I meet this young lady on the elevated train nearly every day, as she works in an office near where I do, and she always bas a pleasant smile and word fer me just the same as it was before the trouble. We are of different religions, but I am willing to become of the same faith as she and marry her, provided her mother bas no other objection than she can state from those letters. H. M, The anonymous letter is the vilest and lowest form of attack upon @ man oF woman’s character, and is utterly beneath the notice of the recipient.“ Decent people say what thev have to say or write it over their own signatures. The honorable course for you to pursue is to insist upon dis- proving the charges contained, in the anonymous communications since the mother has allowed them to influence heg, Go to the mother, and, in a dignified end gentlemanly way, insist on being permit- ted to disprove the allegations in the letter. Be as good as you Then offer your hand to the young lady. If the mother is reasonable you should have no trouble. She will ad- mire you for vour frankness and honor ia the matter.
