A few cas- ualties are occurri.g, but no serious harm is being done. “The Boers sent in to-day a number of refugees from the Transvaal, under a flag of truce. A flag of truce from Ladysmith met them outside the pickets. When the party separated, the Boer guns fired on it before it reached our pickets. ‘“*Maj. Gale of the Royal Engineers was “ ‘The entrenchments are daily growing stronger and the supply of provisions is ample.’ ”’ There is good reason to belfeve that much of Gen.

HANGED ALBERT AUGUST BECKER, A CHI- CAGO BUTCHER. _——— — =. CRIME WAS. LIKE LUETGERT’S. Protested His Innocence and Said His Father-in-Law Was the Murderer. CHICAGO, Nov. 10.—Albert August Beck- er, the German butcher who, on Jan, 27 last, murdered his wife, Rachel, and afterwards chopped up and boiled the remains in order to dispose of them, was hanged in the County Jail at 12:65 o'clock this afternoon. Becker’s neck was not broken by the fall, and it was 15 minutes before he Was pro- nounced dead. On the seaffold Becker protested his in- nocenece and declared George Sutterlin, the father of his second wife, was the real mur- r’s crime in many ways bore a re- markable similarity to that of Adolph Luet- Rert. Both of the condemned men were butch- ers, and the motive for the crime was tne fame in both cases—th@ cesire to get rik of the wife in order to marry a younger woman. The manner of coniumitting the crimes was also much th? same, dota men, according to the testimony, being extreme- ly brutal in the killing and both using the sume means to dispose of the body, by boil- ing and burning. It was proven at Beck- er’s trial that after killing his wife he had chopped her body to pieces, then boiled the remains on his kitchen stove, afterwards burying the remains.in various places. As in the case of Luetgert, the rings of the murdered wife pluyed no smail part in the testimony leading to the conviction. 4ike Luetgert, also, Becker endeavored to ex- plain his wife’s disapnearance by saying she had eloped with another man. SBecker made several confessions. In his first state ment he said he had drowned his wife in Lake Michigan. Later he .endeavored implicate in the crime the father of the woman whom he married efter murdering his first wife, and to the last he stuck to this version. CRUSH TO SEE ACTOR IRVING The Crowds So Immense That Riots Have Been Feared by the New York Police. Special to the Post-Dispatch. NEW YORK, Nov. 10.—Two crushes at the Knickerbocker Theater where Irving is playing have barely fallen short of riots. At the matinee the rush to get in was made by }00 women. It was a sight never be- fore seen. Policemen were swept off their feet and hurled against the walls. Hats were wrecked and dresses ruined. Women fought, scratched and screamed. No one was seriously injured. It required 15 policemen in command of a sergeant to hold in check the crowd.of fran- tie ticket purchasers which lined up at the theater to secure seats for the final week of Irving’s engagement. For a time even this force was unabie te prevent the stampede to the boxoffice window, and it was found necessary to lock the theater doors. The incident was unique in the of New York theatricals. Never were theater doors closed against purchasers. The line began to form at 4 o’cleck in the morning. Al! classes of people were there on a common basis. Some brought camp stools. Dignified men of affairs sat on the curbstones. By 8 o'clock the file of prospective purchasers extended on Thirty-eighth street from Broadway to Sixth avenue, and northward on Sixth ave- nue to Fortieth street. At $:30 o'clock the line reached nearly to Forty-second street on Sixth avenue. When the doors were thrown open the people crowded to the window four abreast, each demanding first attention, In a moment the lobby was packed and several women fainted in the erush. Hats were jammed out of shape and stylish autumn costumes were hope- leasly crumpled When the sale 9 o'clock at night more than a block.

They were found where Peifer says he saw Elijah Russell mur- dered and buried 32 years ago. The bones were found covered with ashes and coke. This bears out Pelfer'’s story that the body had been covered with brush and burned Dr. Eddy saye: “The bones are in such an advanced state of rottenness that I am not fully convinced they are those of a human. but I am now having them pre- pared for a teat.” Peifer is determined to have the matter thoroughly sifted and next week the grand- jury will investigate the matter.

CEES EEE EEE Eee EE CEE EEE CECE ECCS RR nn eS eee JILTED LOVER INSANE, NOW HE RAVES CONSTANTLY OF HIS SWEETHEART. PLACED IN AN ASYLUM. Paid Court to a Pretty Schoolteacher Who Rejected Him for a Drummer. Special to the Post-Dispatch. WINSTED. Conn., Nov. 10.—‘‘May prom- ised to marry me! Now she won't! She promised to mary me, but she loves another man! May’s jilted me!’’ So constantly raving that his sweetheart, Miss May Stevens, had promised to be his wife and then thrown him over, Fred Em- mons of Canaan Valley was forcibly taken to the State Insane Asylum, Middletown. Miss Stevens is the district school teacher, a pretty woman of 23 years; Emmons is 19 years old. For ag year they had been in love. Last summer drummer from Waterbury boarded at the house of Abel Stevens, Miss May's father. The drummer paid dflligent court to the pretty schoo) teacher, and the young woman dismissed Emmons. Soon af- ter his conduct proved that his mind was unbalanced. Last Sunday he was in the family pew at church with his father, Dea- con Jensen Emmons. The young man seized his father by the throat and meet shouting: “May promised to marry me! She has jilted me!’ The services were interrupted, and confusion ensued. Several deacons and stal- wart farmers overpowered Emmons and took him, struggling. home. Since then five men have with difficulty held the love- mad man in bed. Yesterday morning Em- mons could not be coaxed or faenaae from home. ‘“‘Let May tome with me,” he re- veated. ' To humor him the school teacher walked by his side to the depot. He was quiet as a lamb until she left him just before the train moved out. Then he fought furiously; half a dozen men could scarcely restrain him from jump- ing from the car. WANTS THE INSURANCE. M. V. Kacer Ageks the Amount of Col. Yocum’s Policy. Martin V. Kacer, administrator of the will of the late Harry C. Yocum, applied to Judge Ferris Friday for an order direct- ing the Circuit Clerk to turn over to him the money which the United States Casual. ty Company pac in settlement of the life insurance policies carried by Yocum on his own life. The amount is $8,000. The original claim was $11,000, but there was doubt whether Yocum had complied with all the provisions of the policies, and a compromise was ef- fected. The court then directed the company to pay the money to the Circuit Clerk, to await the adjudication of the questions of | survivorship and heirship that had arisen. Kater asks that the court decree that Yo- cum and his daughter died at the same time, and that the insurance money be- longa to him as the legal representative of the dead man.

LOUISVILLE, Ky., Nov. 10.—William Goebel will receive the certificate of elec- tion as Governor of Kentucky by the Elec- tion Board, and the managers of both parties express their willingness to ‘‘wade in blood’ to seat their candidate. The three members of the Board of Elec- tion Commiseioners which will finally pass upon the returns were chosen, under the terms of the Goebel law, by the Legisla- ture which enacted that measure. They are Judge W. J. Pryor of Frankfort, C. B. Pointz of Maryville and W. T. Els of Owensbors, All are friendly to Goebel and ail are Democrats. The law provides for a meeting of commissioners on the fourth Monday after the election, In _ the mountains of the Eleventh District. where there are a number of precincts etill un- heard from, hundreds of men are‘arming and will line up facing each other at the va- rious county seats when the official count is made. Winchesters are at a premium in that sectton and in several towns the Suppiy of ammunition is said to have been exhausted. In the Bluegrass region the feeling against the Goebelites is particularly strong and steps are being taken to organize volun. teer regiments with which to inaugurate Taylor and prevent the swearing in of Goebel. Capt. Stephen G. Sharpe, an ex-Demo- cratic State Treasurer and an ex-Confed- erate soldier of note, said at Lexington: have telegraphed Gov. Bradley that he can call on me for any assistance, civil or military. We can raise two full regi- ments of able-hodied men in this city and county who will go to Frankfort and pre- vent the seating of Goebel. It looks as if a revolution is the only alternative to the advocate of a free ballot and honesty.” One of the most remarkable gatherings of men ever seen in Kentucky last night packed Music Hall and discussed ways and means -of preventing the seating of Goe- bel.

The gereral opin- ‘on had been that they would all expire on the last day of the present year, but Presi- dent McMath was of the opinion the aro light contracts would not expire until April 30.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 10.—Great Interest is felt in the War Department over Agul- naldo’s sudden change of base northeast- ward from Tariac to Bayombong about 7) miles distant. There are numerous spellings of the latter place, but the form given is the one most generally adhered to on the maps in possession of the War Department. The most interesting feature of the hew situation is that Aguinaldo has been forced out of the Tagalo country into a region to the north. where Tagalo is not spoken, and where the mountains are filled with Ne- gritos and other savage tribes, who are hostile to the Tagalos. This is about the most mountainous and inaccessible part of the island. To the south base of Carabello Mountain. there is a narrow break in the mountain range, and within a few miles around the base of Carabello Mountain on Its northern slope, one strikes the headwaters of ihe Magat, which is the beginning of the great River Cayagan, that flows northward 250 miles into the Chinese Sea, It is on the headwaters Aguinaldo is now located. The way Is open for him down the long stre‘eh of the river to Aparri, at the mouth of the Cs where it flows into the sea. This is the wildest but richest valleys in the island It is believed that the River Cagayan navagable for our tin clad boats 140 miles from its mouth. It is expected that shows anv disposition move down valley toward the China Sea, that warships and gunboats will be sent round the ern end of the island to meet him and ff his escape. If it is his intention to escape he would naturally seek Apar: northern port, but the cor Carabello Mountain !s such probably stand off the force in a game of hills for the greater season, of Magat that as soon as Aguinaldo ‘yn ware north. eur from Luzon. 1 or hide }) iF.

Agent Marchand of the Interstate Commission Has Arrived to Be Present at the Hearing. J. T. Marchand of Washingon, D. C., epe. cial agent of the Interstate Commerce Com. mission, arrived in St. Louis Friday and registered at the Southern Hotel. He wil! remain in the city until after the meeting of the commission Monday in the Federal Building to consider the complaint of the St. Louls Traffic Bureau that B8t. Louis is discriminated against in freight rates to Pacific Coast points. Agent Marchand declined to diacuss the relations he will hold to the deliberations of the commission. But, as he is prose- cutor of violaters of the laws regulating commerce, he will probably watch the tes- timony with a view to making criminal prosecutions if the circumstances justify that course. “I can't talk for publication,” sald he. ‘In the first place, I don't know anything. In the second, if I did it would be improper for me to discuss it.

He was dressed in short trousers, and his bare legs might have been cold but for their protecting dirt. The other boys say obbie holds up small newsboys, steals from fruit stands, and if he perseveres may in time meet them on térms of equality. Bldon Sell ought to have warned the boys of the nearness of the police, for he is the fon of a fortune teller Capt. Joyce said a warrant would be is- sued, charging ‘the trio with grand larceny. Mre. Newsom was the only parent that called to see her son. She accounts for her boy's conduct on the theory that he is affected by lunar changes. Elmer goes crazy when the new moon comes, she Says, and always runs away from home and steals horses if he can. At other timeg he behaves himself. Elmer says three years ago a new moon Tompted him to run away to the Fair rounds. There he rode horses so well that the trainer insisted that he go to New Orleans with him. Elmer refused. That night the boy went to sleep in the stabie. When he awoke he was confined in a trunk, No response was made to his Cries until the train left Cairo, Iil. The trainer then opened the trunk, but kept the boy in custody. Arriving at New Or- leans, without money or friends, the boy Was compelled to stay with his abductor, h® says. Some weeks later a successful race that he won enabled him to get money enough to pay his way home. As usual he ran away, and the trafner is atlll windering where he can find his prize jockey. re | eS TROUBLE BETWEEN BROTHERS. George Grassmuck Applied for a War- rant Against Jacob.

The discrimination, it is alleged, is ruinous to the gry | interests of interior cities and promotes the welfare of Atlantic cities at their expense. It is claimed that, as the the Pacific Coast, distance between the interior cities and the | ‘Pacifix Coast is less by 1000 miles, the railroads should be compelled to charge proportionately less for hauling from them than they do from Eastern points. e transcontinental lines will defend themselves from the charges of discrimina- tion.

Don't Porgain alsht rgeet Boyd's E€pecial Saturday * Open until 10 o'clock Saturday GOT THE BOY DRUNK PECULIAR CONDUCT OF FOUR UN- IDENTIFIED MEN. A CHILD WITH ALCOHOLISM. Little Frank Consteiner Came Near Death, but Had Ajmost Recov- ered Friday. Frank Consteiner is the youngest sufferer from alcoholism that Dr. Nietert has at- tended at the City Hospital. Frank js 11 years old was insensible from drink when taken to the hospital Thursday night. He arrived there at 6:30 o’clock and it was not till two hours later that he had been sufficiently revived to tell his name. Not until Friday morning qwas he able to give an account of his spree. The boy lives with his mother and sister at the corner of Twenty-second street and Bremen avenue. His father is dead and the little family is supported by the efforts of the mother. Frank is not a particularly bright lad. His eyes are dull and his mind is slow in srasping new ideas. The Hospital phy- sicilans say this is not the effect of the de- bauch, but is probably what made the lad 80 easy a victim. Mrs. Consteiner is a washerwoman and Thursday afternoon Frank was sent with Some clothes to a house on North Market street, near Broadway. He received 8 cents in payment. Going up Broadway he met four men who had beer in a bucket. "Have some beer?” one asked. “No,” the lad replied, “I don’t want any.” Aw, you'd better take some, boy,” said another, “It'll make you grow.” I got enough money to buy my own can. see. and Frank held up his coin. Then the men slapped him on the back and said they were only joking, wouldn't drink was forced upon him. he stay and talk awhile. The boy said he liked one of the quartette and wanted to stay, but he eee Tae had to take the money home. This he did and returned to North Market street to find the‘“‘nice man.” He found the party on North Market street, just east of Broadway. A bottle had sup- Planted the can. All recognized Frank as the boy who had the 36 cents: He was given a drink. He had not tasted liquor before and the whiskey made him dizzy. He was offered another drink. He refused, ‘‘Let’s get the kid drunk,” said one. They all laughed at the Idea and another Then another and another. Finally the men seemed to tire of whiskey and beer was substituted. Frank does not remember any more until he awoke in the City Hospital. He was found unconscious on the side- walk near a livery stable at Fourteenth and Branch streets by a policeman. For a time his condition was serious and during the night Dr. Scharf remained in his ward. Thursday morning the physicians said FRANK CONSTEINER. that he was as wel] as ever and would be sent home. The lad can not give a description of the four men. The ‘‘nice man” he describes as having a mustache and being “all right.” He claims not to remember whether he was short or tall, stout or thin.

WEE HAW WAS DISCHARGED. Chinese Witnesses Claimed They Could Not Read, but Afterward Said They Feared Highbinders. ——— A Chinaman has outwitted justice and that, too, in a court that knows ho fear in punishing violaters of the law. What is yet stranger, the officers of the court were convinced of the guilt of the prisoner, yet the United States District Atorny had to ask- the United States Dis- trict Court to discharge the culprit. That is why We Haw is free to-day when th Government believes he has violated one of its most stringent laws—that of mis- using the maiis and conducting a lottery. _The case was reported by Postoffice In- spector McKee. He not only had testimony that Wee Haw was conducting a lottery, but captured a bunch of lottery tickets. These were submitted as evidence. Yet this was not enough to convict. The court would ask that the inscriptions on the tickets be read and translated. The Chinaman who gave the information that the tickets were those of a lottery claimed that he could not read them. Other China- men were called in by District Attorney Rozier. But they all shook their heads and claimed not to understand what the Strange figures on the slips meant. St. Louis was scoured for a man who would read the slips. In the city there are but 30 Chinamen who can talk English, outside the affairs of a laundry, and less than that number who can intelligently translate from Chinese manuscript. One safter another they were all tried. but tO no avail. Finally dme confessed that ‘t was not ignorance that kept their ‘ips c.osed, but the fear that their deaths would occur at the nands of Highbinders. They said the powerful men of this Chinese or- der of murderers were high in the favor of Wee Haw, and he of them, so that any harm they might cause to come to the peseomer wouid revert to them an hundred- d. Other Chinamen confessed to the same fear and Mr. Rozier did no more among the Celestials of St. Louls. He asked the De- partment of Justice at Washington for an interpreter. One was sent out here, a wom- an, in the employ of the United States Government. She talked English fluently, but confessed she could not read Chinese. A man was next called, He could read, he said, the ordinary script, but thet om the tickets was different. eae,” said the attorney, decis- vely. The interpreter glanced furtively around and said nothing. He went back to Wash- -ngton. The resources of the local office were exhausted. When the case was calied in the District Court Thursdgy Mr. Rozier Stated to Judge Philips the difficulties he had met, and those that had baff'ed the Postoffice Inspector’s Department, and ask- ed that a nolle prosequi be entered. It was done and Wee Haw walked out a free man. He and the Chinese Highbinders had beaten the United States Court.

Lord Salisbury, in his speech at the Lord Mayor's ban- quet, referred with pointed warmth to the sympathy of Eng- land with the United States in our new purposes and prob- lems and the sympathy of the United States with Great Brit- ain. The majority of the American people will not. be pleased with the statement of the union of the problems and pur- poses of the two countries. We have gone a long way on the land-grabbing and imperial road, but we are not yet commiited to it and it is a rash prophet who predicts that the United States will follow the footsteps of Great Britain in imperial expansion. There is a friendly feeling in the United States for our British cousins and due appreciation of friendly actions in the recent war, but if Lord Salisbury meant to imply that the American people sympathize with the cause and pur- pose of Great Britain in the South African war he is as far “wrong as the jingo newspapers which have been harping about America’s cordial support of British objects. The American people are not so unmindful of their glorious past and so false to their principles as to sympathize with an effort to destroy two republics and wipe out the remnants of self-government on a great continent. +e The police suppression of burglary news pleases the burg- lars. Those people who have not yet been robbed would be put on their guard by publicity, and the burglars themselves would often be endangered.

An- thony in the Sunday Post-Dispatch, that veteran worker in woman's cause is quoted thus: “The only objection raised against co-education is that the girls and boys divert each others’ minds from their work, and that too many romances develop. But to my mind that dis the greatest advantage of co-education. If I had a family of boys an’ girls I would send them to co-education colleges, if for no other purpose than to get well married. Such mar- riages are the happiest that there are,” This is a startling doctrine. (o-education colleges matri- monial training schools! Next we shall heer of a chair of courtship and professors of wootng. No, Miss Anthony, you are an advanced woman, far advanced; sometimes you are out of sight. You have done much for woman, much for the world but folks can't follow you when you go so fast. Slacken your pace that we m@ey catch up with you. We all love and revere you, and want to walk beside you, but don’t tax the faculty of progress too heavily. Not so fast, please. ——__—_—__————- 6 oo Before the election the Administration press' prophesied falsely, and it is now engaged in misrepresenting post-election facts. Ooo - UNIQUE ADVERTISING. At a performance in New York Wednesday evening Miss Julia Arthur rang dpwn the curtain, came before the foot- lights and huried a terse rebuke at some persons in an upper box, who, she said, had been annoying her by loud talking. Then she stamped her foot and exclaimed, ‘“‘l wish they would go.” Whereupon they went. Are not the ordinary advertising dodges enough for Miss Arthur’ Can't she get along with diamond robberies, and poisoned candies, and unwelcome dogs and a divorce suit now and then’ Is it ever necessary in her business to interrupt @ performance, spoil the pleasant impression which people expect at the theater and send them away with a Had taste in the mouth. If Miss Arthur were a man she might have found a brawny fndividual waiting outside at the conclusion of the show. But her ex grotects lh Other women want freedom; she takes license. Was there colluston” vas per box’ The audience ems not until ehe aled her displeasure. or did she seize upon arh of good breeding as a choice opportunity tu ads ne hereelf?

The ceremony might have been performed in some grand edifice, glowing with masses of flowers and resonant with pealing music of chotr and band. A mile or more of carriages might have been lined up outside, and apliendor, color and sound might have been united to tell the world that a mod- BS ern hero, the idol of his country, had taken to — a wife. _—sspetead of all thls we find Admiral Dewey, efter a simple ful ity ding rare ceremony might have been cundings that would have highest ecclesiastics, offi- men and women, naval would giadly have sur- t that “the sweetest litle woman tn the world” omised to become Mrs. Dewey, getting married just as PINOOCHLE. an f diamonds count 300, | Boubiy.* Ses tares I ge A aralbemany omitted. » ae at - ™ We any citizen in good circumstances would get married. An or- dinary rector and a parish priest were good enough for him. A couple of carriages, a brief ceremony, a pleasant chat to the officiating clergyman about old times, congratulations, a wedding breakfust—that is “our Admiral,” that is the man who has shown himself in all things to be simple and manly. It is to be hoped that those who lovk upon the marriage ceremony a8 an opportunity for lavish display will take a hint frum Dewey's way of getting married. Leaders of both parties in Kentucky who are inflaming popular passions by urging and threatening resort to arms to settle the election contest are wretched leaders. They ought to have more wisdom and self-restraint. Justice is not to be obtained by armed violence. Two mobs can stain the soil of a State with blood, but cannot ,settle an election. If. the threats are bluffs they are dangerous bluffs. Kentucky would be disgraced by a fight over an election. — A SPHERE OF INFLUENCE. The question is, whether we shall have a sphere of influence or an open door. China is the country most interested, but the Celesttals wil] not be consulted. The question will be decided by the United States and the Great Powers of Europe. Secretary Hay inclines to favor the open door, but the Am- bassadors are trying to persuade him that he would like a sphere of influence better. They suggest that the United States occupy a Chinese port and restrict itself to that sphere, which will no doubt be made large enough by the accommo- dating diplomats. Spheres of influence have much to commend them. With a sphere of influence in China there will be countless oppor- tunities for the strenuous life. There will be scraps big and scraps little, benevolent assimilation, 5 per cent and great chunks of philanthropy, wars and rumors of wars, with a lot of glory and diplomacy and high politics of the European va- riety. The open door is well enough for unprogressive nations, but now that we are out in the big world, let us have all that is going. Patriotism demands our neighbor’s goods. Let us be brave and assume the responsibilities which Providence has placed upon our shoulders. Let us have a sphere of in- fluence. —oo@ The five fire alarms in.a single afternoon must have alarmed the insurance companies. Such a list is an emphatic call for the retention of all skilled and trustworthy firemen, regardless of the Mayor's schemes. Fire possibilities are great, even when there is a perfect Fire Department. SS FIRE LOSSES FROM DEFECTIVE FLUES. There have been a great many little fires of late, the calmness of the weather having prevented the spreading of the flames. Several of these fires have been caused by defec- tive flues. According to the Insurance Press, defective flues are the chief cause of fires in the United States. In the past 15 years there have been 36,576 fires in dwellings and tenements result- ing from defective flues. Especially in the suburbs of cities, where wooden hcuses are the rule, defective flues may be ex- pected to cause numerous fires. Now is the time, before severe weather arrives, to have flues overhauled and made safe. In this case prevention is every- thing. There is no cure. One man has just bought 1,000,000 acres of Pacific Coast land, paying $6,000,000 for it, hoping to realize many millions from the timber on it. When a single American finds that he needs so much land it is easy for other Americans to think of an expansion of our territory and the extermination of every people occupying ground that we covet. —— 9 The London Times promises that Great Britain will aid us in our war expansion, expecting, of course, that we shall sup- port Great Britain in her barbarous raids on any weak peo- ple whose territory she covets. It looks now as if the Britons are already needing a great deal of sympathy and may need aid. >> i Senor Regidor says it will take 300,000 men to conquer the Filipinos and 660,000 to maintain order when the war shall be over. That is just what the imperialists are hoping for. It insures a larze standing army, which is the first necessity in revolutionizing our form of government. =! = ~~ SS Instead of resigning, Senator Mason should keep his seat and join in the contest that is likely to be made by the anti-war-expansion Senators. The voice of no patriotic Amer- ican should be silent while imperialism is so noisy. Mr. Hanna regards as thrown away the vote in Ohio cast for an honest candidate. Such a vote, however, is not so much thrown away as is the vote for a politica] trickster, however successful he may be. ~~ English news from the Transvaal is of little value. Fortu- nately for the Boers, censors and falsifiers cannot win bat- tles by withholding facts and sending out misrepresentations. The Postmasters who contributed to Mr. Hanna’s slush fund have a right to claim a large share of whatever glory there may be in the Ohio escape from defeat. 2 —————____—_ Ex-Secretary Sherman is certainly not unhappy over the returns from Mr. Hanna’s city of Cleveland. The Kentucky Republicans are depending much upon the figures from the lawless mountain regions. Mr. Hanna’s speeches in favor of the trusts were probably not circulated among the Chio farmers. $$$ The Kentucky charges of fraud on both sides are probably true. , — . POST-DISPATCH SNAP SHOTS. . It's Aunt Mildred now. The Boers are still hanging on to Ladysmith’s skirts. It is to be hoped that the Filipino will not come back to Mabalacat. A supply of mice should be kept on hand to scare away the woman burglar. The dove of peace is what Mr. Bull needs now more than he needs the post pigeon. The terrible garrison of Ladysmith will do great work in the English newspapers. The Jones vote is annoying Mr. Hanna even more than did the Dewey presidential shadow. The sainted Senators who have stuck to McKinley this year will expect him to do a great deal for their sapient sons. If Victoria still has confidence in White, and McKinley still believes In Otis, what is to check the two wars for ex- pansion? Is it the opinion of ex-Speaker Reed that the falling off in the Republican vote is an indorsement of the McKinley yellow-belly policy? If Uncle Joe Wheeler is to be hampered and held back in the Philippines by inferior generals, we shall continue to get everything from his pen and nothing from his sword. > > a ANSWERS TO CORRESPONDENTS.

On the front of the pillar will be cut the words,‘‘This stone marks latitude 45 degrees north, half-way from the equator to the North Pole.” Naturally this unexpected incident has set the people of North Perry in a flutter of excitement. There are only about five hundred persons in the plaee, and while the men earn their living by acting as guides to hunting parties and by working in the lumber camps, the women and children earn a little money in the spring and early fall by picking berries and sending them to the canning factories. Not often do they take a holiday, but they are determined to have one on the day when -the shaft is placed in position. The stone, which has just been completed at the granite quarry near here, was or- dered by the government, and the spot which it will occupy has been marked by the geographical surveyors of the United States Government as being precisely mid- way between the equator and the North Pole. ; UP AND DOWN.

But in laughter, almost in- explicable as it is, there exists a great healer. It i8 the forerunner, one might almost cail it, of forgeifulness. It is the Cistracter.

A Sallsbury (Mo.) paper talks about a tree near that place that looks like “tan old-fash- ioned black walnut, on one side of which is a fine crop of walnuts, while on the oth- er it is full of hickory nuts_and white acorns."’ It was in Chariton County that an old negro farmer managed to raise piirpkins and watermelons on the same vine. but the wool on his head was of the unmixed variety affected by the fashion- able colored people of Alabama.

When the June sun turned the fruit julcy and the per- fume of the berries hung heavy upon the sweltering air the field was thronged with pickers, who rode out from the village on great hay racks and back again at night, singing and laughing and scandalizing the neighbors. Among the noisy pickers was one fel- low who kept to himself and who neither whistled nor sang nor called out to the others. This was Daunt Jewlson of the Becker road. He walked two miles from the north every morning to meet the hay ricks at the village, and no one knew mich about him except that he had a small farm laid out in sweet potatoes and peanuts. Daunt was not a particularly fast picker, and he seemed to dream a good deal. He set the whole company in a roar of laughter one night as he and they stood about the packing sheds looking at the crates of eae em ———— Other the First Thing.

No doubt others be- sides herself were lonesome at times. She went to bed and dreamed a dream and it seemed to her that she ran and laughed upon a shore where the waves rolled in, and that a young man ran and leaped beside her, and that when the stars came out they went together to some quiet flelds. planted with goodly things, and to a cottage which was their home. In the early dawn she awoke to know it for a dream, and she wept homesick tears for the home that was not. That is how it came about evening Lena wrote an impossible little letter and directed it to Daunt Jewlson, of the Becker road, near South Fork. Well, Daunt wrote and Lena wrote and Daunt wrote, and then one day he took the morning boat over to the city, and, it being Thursday afternoon and Lena's free day, she met him at the pier. They knew each other the first thing, for Daunt wore, as had been arranged, a rose in the band of his hat, and she had blue ribbons and a white dress.

HARRIET HUBBARD AYER, To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. “Practical Experience,” who says he married one he did not love because his sweetheart and he quarreled, is reaping the reward of his folly. His very act in marry- ing a woman he did not love shows him to be in a resentful, stubborn frame of mind. When he had a disagreement with the one he loved, why did he not wait and think it over in a sane manner, then write an henest, straightforward, manly letter to her, asking her to meet him half way, and thus come to a better understanding with each other. No girl will refuse a gentle- man sucn an interview. How much unhappiness would be pre- vented if each had one more chance to ex- plain things that go wrong. A modest, sen- sitive girl cannot make advances for a reconciliation if the man holds himself aloof and is reserved, and to all outwardly ap- pearance indifferent. She may feel, yes, know, he is not what he is trying to ap- pear, yet she has to accept the appear- ance of indifference he assumes until His mood changes. A man tires of a woman quickly who shows her whole heart and soul is his. He don’t appreciate her at her true worth, and when he misunderstands her motive for doing many trifling liftle things he don’t happen to like he gets in a pout, accuses her of a whole lot of crimes; she resents it all, and thinks he can just pout it out. He leaves with contending emotion, she hoping he will come back, he longing for her to call him back; she wants to, but ts afraid he will perhaps not want to come, and life goes on for both each waiting for the other, until one or the other thinks of showing how little they care by marrying some one else, and then when it is too late they see how easy it could all have been made right if each might have had one more chahce to explain. Now, I beg all sweethearts who are at Outs to lay aside their false pride, for when it’s too late they will see how very foolish and false it all was. If you truly love her give her one more chance to open her heart | GOOD -ADVICE FOR LOVERS.

What a coward I am! Tf I only dared send those lines to him I know it would make him happy, but I cannot do it for fear he will not quite understand my mo- tive. So our lives drift further apart. He thinks me indifferent, and I cannot un- deceive him until he gives me another chance. I had one little chance lately, but to save my life could not raise my eyes to his. He was more convinced than even that I did not care. I am no silly, love-sick girl; I am past my teens by gs@veral years. I never loved before; thought I was proof against the tender passion. But now 1 know what ho deferred means, Now the chorus of “In the Shadow of the 'Pines’’ {s a constant re- frain with me.

To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. The Rev. Cyrus Dickson of Newburg, N. Y., seems to be a confirmed convert to the theory that all professional criminals should be dosed to death with chloroform. He says that only 1 per cent of their chil- dren sent West ever reform. Strange that a prominent divine of the Christian religion ghoul advocate such barbarity. It ts a well established fact that crime ts a disease of the mind, or forms part of the ideas pro- mulgated from our senses; that it is in- herent or hereditary from parent to child is beyond question. But the way to eradi- cate it is not by the destruction or taking of life. The proper and effective remedy, which would not be barbaric, would be to enact a law in all the States that no marriage license should be granted to any applicant without an efficient investigation of the character of the applicant. Along this line also proper medical certificates of the healthfulness and soundness, both mentally and physically. HENRY FAIRBACK. St. Louis.

LOUIS BOXER TO MEET CASPER LEON AT MEMPHIS. WINNER TO FIGHT M GOVERN. The Biograph Piotures of the Jeffries- Sharkey Fight Will Net a For- tune to the Principals. Two weeks from Monday next Johnny Richie, the best boxer that ever repre- sented St. Louis in the fistic arena, will meet Casper Leon in a 20-round bout at Memphis. " Both these men have challenged Terry McGovern, the little New York wonder, and he has advised them to meet each Other and promised to fight the winner. The successful] man at Memphis therefore Will be matched to meet McGovern in a 2- round bout, and the fight wiil be fought in the arena of the Monarch Athletic Ciub of Louisville, on Dec. 5. Richie has already fought McGovern, but claims that he was over-trained when they met and that in condition he can come retty near defeating the great little New ‘orker. S. Louis judges of boxing think the Leon- Richie bout will go the Mmit and that the latter will win on points. In that event tichie will be the man to face McGovern at louisville, and many St. Louisans will run down to see this mil). Since his meeting with Flanagan in the Colizeum Leon has done noth ing but get dy for his coming meeting with Richie, Lots of interest is felt in St. Louls box- ing circles in the meeting that is to occur in Chicago Friday night between Frank Purcell and Jack Moffat. The latter will probably win in a walk. Tim Hurst, matchmaker for the St. Louls Athletic Club, says the match that was to have taken place in the Fourteenth Street Theater Monday night between Craig and West has been declared off. Australian Jimmy Ryan accompanied Hurst from New York and will soon arrange te meet some good man before Tim's club. Jim Jeffries has accepted challenge and the two Jims will meet in New York next June. So the wires from New York say. But this announced match is probably only a bluff to help Corbett's salioon business in New York Those who know say he can never get in condition te fight as big and strong a man as Jeffries. Gus Rubhlin offered to fight Jeffries this week, the winner to take al) the receipis, but Jim has declined that challenge in fa- vor of Corbett. Ruhlin and Jeffries fought a 20-round draw at San Francisco, and per- haps that is one of the reasons Jeffries has for refusing Ruhlin’s latest challenge. The principals in the late fight for world’s championship will get more the $30,000 purse they fought for. Both Jeffries and Sharkey have a third interest in the pictures, and it is estimated that at least $300,000 will be derived from this source. This would give Jeffries and Sharkey a little over $150,000 each in addli- tion to the purse. The blograph company is not worrled over the taking of pictures by rivals who sue- ceeded in reproducing the rounds of the fight. The blograph people are going right aheda developing their 14 miles of film, which was necessary to take the entire 25 rounds, and when completed It will be for- warded te Washington to be copyrighted. William A. Brady, who holds a large inter- est in the biograph company, savs there jis only one set of pictures of the fight in ex- istence, and it-t® in possession of kis com- pany. Any other fteproduction, Mr. Brady says, are fakes. “Mr. White or his friends who claim to have taken the “we of the fight may have a few rounds,”’ said Brady, ‘‘but that js all. The machine was carried into the clubhouse under a mackintosh, and from what 1 understand, only 10 rounds were taken. This whole thing lookge like a black- matling scheme, but It will have no effect on our pictures.” Jim Corbett’s the than Bob Fitzsimmons is evidently in earnest about fighting again. He has challenged Jeffries. His munager, when questioned as to whether his proterwe would take on Sharkey should the boiler maker refuse to entertain his defi, sald: ‘‘No: Jeffries is the only one Fitzsimmons ts after just now. He is the champion and -.he wants to meet him. He could mot gain any prestige by clashing with Sharkey, who has been sound- ly thrashed twice by Jeffries and whom Rob easily vanguished in San Francisco.”” Cor- bett, like Fitz, says he will agree to mect no one but the champion; It looks as though corer “ wet y tO Wait a long time for another Tight, umiess he agrees t : Peter Maher. ” as ig la Pete Simonin wants to meet Fred Prior and writes that he wi!!! challenge the latter when he returns from Chicago.

District President Hett! Considers the ... Situation Serious and Wants More Authority. : The situation in the Belleville coal mine @istrict has grown so serious that an ur- gent telegram was sent by District Presl- Gent Hefti of Belleville Friday to John Mitchell, the National President, asking dim to go at once to Belleville or East St. douis for a conference. A reply was re- celved which stated that Mr. Mitchell would go to Hast St. Louis. He is expected RO @rirve there Saturday. President Mitchell was interviewed in Ohicago. He said: ‘ @ mincrs have been careful in dealing With this situation, and have done every- thing in their power to avoid a rupture. The strikes in the Southwest were called enforce our wage scale, and the men in Minois insist that their labor shall not used to defeat their brothers in the other States. l instructed President Hef- ti to order a strike of the miners working for operators who persisted in supplying the railroads ‘we are fighting, and that or- @er will stand.’’ There was no change Friday in the situa- tion in the Belleville district. The officers ofthe United Mine Workers of America are moving slowly. They are disposed to give © operators every chance to clear them- Ves of the suspicion of shipping coal to southwest and to convince them that if ey have been doing so they will not do ao @ny more, but they dre not inclined to ac- cept any empty promises. he strike at the Taylor mine at O’Falion Ms hanging fire. President Hefti and the committeemen who went there to see Jos- Taylor, the proprietor, Thursday, were pointed. “Mr. Taylor was in St. Louis. ney claim they have such a clear case : net him that nothing he can say will ange their determination to order a Strike, but they do not want to be in the Sition of thaving taken advantage of Mr. ylor, so they returned to Belleville, leav- ing word for Mr. Taylor to go to Belleville wh SR OE ik ) years.

Taylor claims he has sent no eoal to the strike district and that if any of his coal has been shipped there it was pur- Ghased of him by middlemen and sent there without his knowledge. The tracers who have been keeping tab on his shipments, though, claim ta have positive evidence that @t least 14 car loads have been shipped from the mine at O'Fallon direct to the Missouri, Kansas & Texas yards in North St. Louis Guring the last few days. It is not believed that anything which Mr. Taylor can say will alter the determination of the district Officers to order a strike. s00n as action has been taken In the Taylor case President Hefti and the mem- bers of the committee wil] make the rounds of all the other mines which are under sus- Picion and wherever it fs considered neces- Sary to stop the shipment of coal to the strike district the men will be called out.
