The meeting of Von Renthel and Mss. Harri- son was affecting. He recognized her at once, but she stared at him vacantly and | seemed even to fear that me meant to_ do ' her an injury. Mr. von Renthel, assisted by Christopher 'Ghio, took’Mrs. Harrison home. There Dr. FE. B. Mayfield was in waiting, having been summoned by telephone. Drs. Mayfield and Gorin worked for near- ly an hour to quiet Mrs. Harrison's nerves. When this had been done members of the household and a Post-Dispatch reporter were permitted to see her. She..was a picture of wretchedness. Her halr was dishevelled and her eyes sunken. Across her forehead was a livid red spot and there was a similar, but smaller spot on her neck. Dr. Mayfield said these spots looked very much like chloroform burns. Mr. von Renthel sat at the woman's side with his arm around her and soothed her while she told her remarkable story.

PLAY STOPPED AND THE CUR- TAIN RUNG DOWN. Panic Seized the Players, and Physi- . cigns Were Summoned Who Man- aged to Partially Restore the Stricken Stak Special to the Post-Dispatch. NEW YORK, Dec. 2.—Richard Mansfield suffered a collapse while playing “Cyrano de Bergerac’ at the Garden Theater to- night. It had not been decided at mid- night whether his affliction is heart fail- ure or nervous trouble. It is feared nis condition jis critical. Mr. Mansfield -had ‘played the first three acts with his usual {fire and force, The climax of the last act and the grand climax of the play was be- ing approached when Mr. Mansfield was seen to stagger. Several actors ran to him and prevented him from falling. He was led from the stage and the curtain rung down. . Soon an attache of the company came be- fore the curtain and announced that Mr. Mansfield could not go on with the play. While this vae being done before the curtain exciting scenes were being enact- ed on the gtag2. Mr. Mansfield had col- lapsed completely and panic had seized the players. Doctors were hastily sum- moned and temporary stimulants adminis- tered. Mr. Mansfield rallied and was hur- ried to the home of a friend on Riverside drive. ; There physicians and trained nurses fol- lowed. After Mr. Mansfield had been taken to the home of a friend an amazing state- ment was given out by A. M. Palmer, his manager. He denied emphatically that Mr. Mansfield was ill. He explained that the hissing and knocking of steam pipes under ‘the stage during the entire evening had made Mr. Mansfield very nervous, and that he could not continue playing. Persons in the audience declare they saw Mr. Mansfield stagger and saw him led off the stage. It is surmised that Mr. Mansfield was either ‘In an extremely nervous state, so nervous as to warrant him in ringing down the curtain on a large audience, or his friends are trying to hide the real serious- ness of his illness. TRUST'S HAND ON A TREATY New Convention With France Said to Have Been Framed by the Standard Oil Oo, Special to the Post-Dispatch. WASHINGTON, Dec. 2.—Charges that home. | neighborhood of / the new reciprocity treaty with France was brought about by Standard Oi] Com- pany influences are likely to be ventilated when that convention comes before the Senate for ratification. It is well known here that at one time during the negotia- tions the State Department and the French diplomats were practically in despair of concluding an agreement, and the matter was upon the point of heing abandoned, Just at that critical stage of the proceed- ings, the Standard Oil Company took a hand, and immediately the differences were adjusted and the way made clear for sign- ing the treaty. It is sid hre that the agreement be- tween the State Department and the French diplomats provides for the admission into France of Standard Oil Company’s prod- ucts, and for a material reduction in the United States duties on Frénch importa- tions of fruits and wines. John A. Kasson, the special commission- er of the State Department, in charge of reciprocity treaties, admits, in conversation with members of Congress, that the duty on certain grades of wines has been low- ered by the French treaty. This being the case, the new treaty will not be likely +o have clear sailing when it comes to the Senate for ratification. FOURTH SUSPICIOUS — CASE | Another Case of Bubonic Plague Be- lieved to Have Been Discovered on Pest Steamer. Special to the Post-Dispatch. NPW YORK, Dec. 2.—Health Officer Doty discovered to-day what may prove to be the fourth case of bubonic plague on the pest steamer, J. W. Taylor, from Santos. The supposed victim is Third Engineer Story. He has been under observation for four days. | Dr.* Doty and his assistants yesterday ‘morning discovered a small pimple, purple and angry, on the littie toe of the man’s left foot. The pimple was exceedingly pain- ful. This was the only general symptom of ‘the plague. The patient's temperature was / normal. As a precautionary measure Dr. Doty re- moved the engineer to Swinburne Island. ‘The discovery of another apparent case was |a painful surprise, Collector Bidwell, it was said at the Cus- tom House, will probably allow the Taylor to “enter’’ on Monday. It was proposed to send a deputy collec- tor down the bay and have him anchor near the plague ship. The chief officer might come alongside and make @ sworn declara- (tion of the cargo, The Taylor then may clear and sall immediately in ballast. The discovery of another alleged case of the plague may knock these plans into a soldier's hat, however. Busk & Jevons, the agents of the ship, are losing $1000 a day the delay of the vessel.

Binh mica niegntnia gn giinriilinlpnantadl Special to the Post-Dispatch. WASHINGTON, Dec. 2.—Representative Campbell of Montana arrived in Washing- ton to-day with a petition signed by the Governor of the State and 40 or more mem- bers of the Legislature prtesting against the seating of Senator-elect Clarke of 'Mon- tana, alleging that his election was secured by bribery. This petition will be presented to: the Senate on Tuesday and referred to the Committee.on Privileges and Elections. It will Be considered by that committee as soon as possible and a strenuous effort wiil be made by Mr. Clarke’s opponents to un- seat him. Jere M. Wilson, a Washington lawyer, has been retained as coungel for the sign- ers of the petition, and when the case is considered by the committee he will set forth all the allegations in the case. Neither Mr. Campbell nor Attorney Wilson would make public the text of the petition, but it {s generally understood that the state- ments which have been made in Montana are embraced in the petition, including the startling charges made by State Senator Whiteside when he produced the roll of bills 6n the floor of the State Senate, It will be endeavored to show that Mr. Clarke paid out money to secure votes, as wus done in the disbarment proceedings insti- tuted against. Lawyer Willcome of Butte. The testimony before the Supreme Court of Montana in the case accompanies the petition. Mr. Clarke will make a vigorous defense and wij engage attorneys for that pur- ose. ite is Sues to reach Washington to- morrow. earings in the case may begin in December. In the meantime, however, Mr. Clarke will be sworn in and allowed to take his seat. Senator Chandler, chairman of the Com- mittee on Privileges and Elections, said to-night: “I can’t see what effect the action of Goy. Smith of Montana, in protesting against Mr. Clarke taking a seat after having signed his certificate of election, can possi- bly have. Everybody knows that Clarke received a majority of the Montana Legis- lature’s votes and the Governor merely signed a certificate of the f How the votes were secured is another matter, but the certificate of election must stand. “Gov. Smith might tear it up, but that would have no effect on the Senate. Noth- ing he can do now woul@ invalidate the certificate.’’ Senator Burrows, another member of the Committee on’ Privileges and Elections, said: ‘“‘Gov. Smith having signed the cer- tificate of election and having delivered it to Mr. Clarke, nothng he may now do can annul it. It was an official act that cannot be recalled.”’ WEDS THE WOMAN HE MARRIED Statement Not a Paradox Because the Groom Is a Minister and His Bride Is Worth $7,000,000. Special t@ the Post-Dispatch. BRIDGE'PORT, Conn., Dec. 2.—The Rev. Henry Sherman, af the age of 63, has won & bride ® years his junior, worth $7,000,000. The marriage took place to-day at noon. Mr. Sherman will not preach any more. He has given up his pulpit to devote him- self to hes wife. They will travel to- gether. The minister married his bride once before. Then he was the rector of St. Paul's Episcopal Church, but he was then the officiating clergyman and not the bride- groom, as he was to-day. Then the present Mrs. Sherman was Miss Mary Perry, the deughter of Wm. H. Perry, one of the richest men in Bridgeport. She fell in love with Mark Leavenworta, a bardware dealer, and married him. They returned to the bride’s home to beg forgiveness, but Mr. Perry kicked Leaven- ‘worth out of the house. For ten years there was little communication between father and daughter. Leavenworth died ‘and Perry became blind. He sent for his ‘daughter and she was devoted toghim until] his death, last June.

The Rigid Censorship of News Indicates Bad Situation of the English. BOERS AT SPYTFONTEIN. - AT THAT POINT THE NEXT EN- GAGEMENT MAY BE FOUGHT. Sharp Criticism of the Management of the British War Fund—A Few Items Showing What the War Is Costing England. LONDON, Dec. 2.—The meager official dispatch giving a list of the British casual- ties at Modder River and announcing the bare fact that Lord Methuen ts still there awaiting reinforcements, is only supple- mented by a brief special message from Cape Town to-night, stating that the Boers destroyed the bridge over the Modder Riv- er before the battle, and are noW coneen- trating at Spvtfontein, where the final battie for the relief of Kimberley is expected to take place. The censor has apparently stopped all press messages from the front relating to the battle, which is not regarded as a favor. abie indication. As to the material results of Lord Methuen's engagement it fs not yet clear whether Lord Methuen’s force actually crossed the Modder River, or is still awalit- ing the rebuilding of the bridge before the artillery and cavalry can cross. In any case, the rallway must be carried over the bridge before the indispensable big naval guns can pass, because Lord Methuen’'s last message showed that they were worked on trucks: along the railroad. It is a_ significant fact that Lord Methuen’s cablegram makes no mention of the Boer loss, which, therefore, is assumed to be small. An official rectification of the list of Mod- der River casualties among the non-com- missioned officers and men makes the (otal losses of the North Lancashire’s three killed and 16 wounded. Of the Northumber- land Fusiliers, 11 killed and 34 wounded, and of the Argyllis, 18 killed and # wounded. It also adds to the list of the Remington guides, three men wounded. The aggre- gate of casualties among the non-commis- sioned officers and men is 452. This, with the officers killed and wounded, brings the casually list up well towards 6. - The revised list of Modder River casual- ties, non-commissioned officers and men, is divided as followg: : Ninth Lancers—One wounded; Engineers, 2 wounded; artiliery, 3 killed, 25 wounded; Second Coldstreams, 10 killed, % wounded; Third Grenadiers, 9 killed, 3fwounded, 4 >missing; Scots Guards,.10 kilied, 37 wounded, 1 missing; Northumberland Fusiliers, 11 killed, 31 wounded; First Northumbérlands, 3 wounded; Second Yorkshire, 9 killed, 4 wounded; First North Lancashire, 3 killed, 14 wounded; Argyll and Southerland High- landers, 165 killed, 95 wounded, 2 missing; First Coldstreams, 2 wounded; South Af- rican Reserve, 1 wounded; Medical Corps, 1 wounded. The War Office has received the follow- ing from Gen. Forestier-Walker, dated at Cape Town yesterday: ’ “Gen. Gatacre reports no change in the situation. ° “Gen. French has made a reconnolissance from Naauwpoort to Rosmead. The troops returned to-day. “Gen.* Methuen’s flesh wound is slightse He is remaining at Modder River for the reconstruction of the bridge. Am reinforcing him with Highlanders and a cavalry corps. Horse artillery, the Canadian regiment, Australian contingente and three battal- ions of infantry moved up to the De Aaar and Beimont line.”’ From Gen. Forestier-Walker’s dispatch it is proved that all reports of Gen. Meth- eun’s advance after the batt:e of Modder River were premature, though, with the railroad working, he should not be long in constructing a temporary bridge. His) enforced delay, doubtless, will be of con. | siderable service in giving his hard pushed column needful rest and in allowing the arrival of re-enforcements, of which he must be sorely in need, after three sucif fights, placing hors de combat upwards of 1000 men out of less than 7000. z Gen. Forestier-Walker's announcement that the Canadian marksmen and other re-enforcements have been pushed forward to the neighborhood of the Orange River, to protect Gen. Metheun’s line of com- munication, has reileved much anxiety here, where it was fully expected the Boers would attempt to attack the vulnerabie points of the line of communication, A @spatch from Cape Town this even- ing says Lcrd Methuen’s advance undoubt- ediy is beginning to affect the Boer strat- egy and probably explains the withdrawal from Mooi River. The cont.nued presence of commandos in Cape Colony tends to confirm the opinions that the Boers are making desperate efforts to Lng their forces from the Dutch res!i- dets.

I think I have done so. “One of the things I have found out to my entire satisfaction is the: proper remedy for ailments that are due di- rectly to the effects of the climate. For 111 years I have withstood the change- able climate of the United States. | “I have always been a very healthy man, but of course subject to the little affections which are due to sudden changes in the climate and temperature. During my long life I havé known a great many fetnedies for coughs, colds, catarrh and diarrhea. “IT had always supposed these affections to be different diseases. For the last ten or fifteen years I have been reading Dr. Hartman’s writings. I have learned much from his books, one thing in particular: That these affections are the same and that they are properly called catarrh. “As for Dr. Hartman’s remedy, Pe- ru-na, I have found it to be the best, if not the only, reliable remedy for these affections. It has been my stand- -by for many years, and I attribute my | food -health and extreme cld age to this remedy. +.“It exactly meets all my requirements. | {t protects me from the evil effects of sud- den changes; it keeps me in good appetite; it gives me strength; it keeps my blood in go00d circulation. I have come to rely upon it almost entirely for the many little things for which I need medicine. “I believe it to be valuable to old people, although I have no doubt it is just as good for the young. I should be glad if my sin- cere testimony should become the means of others using this remedy, because I be- lievé it to be the greatest remedy of this age for catarrhal diseases. “When epidemics of la grippe first began to make their appearance in this country I was a sufferer from this disease. “T had several long sieges with the grippe. At first I did not know that Pe-ru-na was n remedy for this disease. When I heard that la grippe was epi- demic catarrh, I tried Pe-ru-na for la grippe and ‘ound it to be just the thing. “It Has saved me several times from a siege of the grippe. I feel perfectly safe from this terrible malady so long as I have Pe-ru-na at hand. I hope that Dr. Hart- man may live to be as old as I am, to con- tinue the good work of teaching the people the value of his great remedy, Pe-ru-na.

Important Engagements of the Cen- tury Compared With That of Modder River. The list of killed and wounded at the bat- tle of Modder River does not bear out Gen. Methuen’s wild use of language in his dis- patch to Queesi Victoria. Modder River was hardly ‘“‘the bloodiest battle of the century.” Methuen lost men, according to later re- perts. The Hoer’ loss was likely not heavier than that of the British. It fs estimated that about 30,000 men were engaged. This makes the loss, reckoning the total on both sides 1000—only 31-8 per cent, ‘which falls far below that of ‘“‘bloody battle.’ Follow- ing are the losses in the great battles of the century: Men Total Per Ct.

The Transvaal War Will Add 100 Per Cent to the Value of African Diamonds. m Special Cable to the Post-Dispatch. Copyright. 1899, by the Press Publishing Company. BRUSSELS, Dec. 2.—M. Ryziger, presi- dent of a syndicate of dealers in precious gems, when asked about the effect of the South African war on the value of De Beer diamond mines and diamond prices replied: “Since January, 1898, the price of ‘dia- monds has risen 70 per cent, due in the first instance to the restriction of the out- put by the De Beers, and latterly to the war. The prolongation of shutting up the Kimberley mines will cause a further in- crease—probably 30 per cent—in the price. If the water gets into the workings it may take a year, or even two, before the mines will be again in full working order. So prices are almost certain to reach ex- travagant figures.”’ The Rhodes combination controlling the diamond market of the world, have stock on hand of an estimated value of $15.000.- 000. So. their profit from the war must be enormous. AY INDICT CARTER’S FRIENDS United States Attorney in Georgia to File Complaint Against Alleged Conspirators of the Dis- graced Officers.

But in this instance the tale is true in every detail in so far as it has been possible to determine. Before the war broke out a young war. le lived near Glandorf, ercer State. George Gargoyle, son of ei to Uhilo when searcely out of his teens, secured work as farmhand, first in Holmes, next in ayne, and afterward in Mercer County, work for Hiram Silgrist, a y German. Silgrist’s eldest daughter, rva, Was a pretty girl, and it was not that she won the heart of young le, despite the attentions paid her val su:ter, a French-American, Al- house. Rad biood was engen- : the two, and for a time it questiot | which of the two would be. ‘law to old man Silgrist, But | Aireads won, and the two were married. Already the ‘rumbling of the distant war cloud had become ominous, and one of. the firet to ealist in an Ohio regiment was George Gargoyle, despite the’ protestations of his father-in-law, whose cool. German blood did net ting.e with the war spirit which filled the soul of the Yankee-bred lad. He went to the frent, as did Fitten- house, both enlisting in the same company and leaving for duty at the same time. One day came the news of an engagement in which among the list 6f missing appeared the name of George Gargoy.e. Despite all efforts to secure any further information about the A pow | soldier, not one word could be iearnod until, a few menths later, when Alfred Fittenhouse came home on a fr- lough, he voluntvered the information that George Gargoyle hed been drowned while attempting to ford a stream in Mississippl. This was accepted as truth, and it was not strange that Fittenhouse, after having served his term of enlistment, wedded the woman vho supposed she wae a widow. Meanwhile young Gargoyle had been en- during a decidedly unique series of experi- ences, The first consisted in his falling into the hands of a squad of Confederate caval- ry, who, after wounding him, effected hie capture and he was sent to Andersonville. Here he lay for 17 months, at the end of which time he was rejeased, broken an shattered in health. He had tried in v rious ways to communicate with his friends in the North, but had never been able to receive any letters or cacermetion. in‘an way.

Jraduaily his earlier life. came back to him, and his thoughts again turned toward home and wife. He wrote to his old home, but: received no reply. He did light work as he was able, to secure funds sufficient to take him back to Ohio, but meanwhile received a letter from an old friend, who gave him the exact status of affairs. Gar- goyle was nearly heart-broken, but made no further-attempts to return to Ohio, but began to work westward as rapidly as he could, until in time he landed in California, where for years he worked in the mines with varying success. He regained his health to a great extent, but isolated him- self from any possible means of communi- cation with any one who knew him. His friend, in obedience to a fequest sent him, refrained from publishing the fact that Gorgoyle was alive. Three years ago Gar- et resolved to try his fortunes in Alas- While in the Yukon country he fell in with a couple of men from near his old home, and, after some months’ acquain- tance with them, he one day ventured upon a few cautious inquiries.

The largest single subscription was in the , box at the Equitable building and was made Mr. Alexander Russell, the amount be- $150, represented by a ‘check made pay- }able to the order of the president and which re across its face the following inscrip- on: “In memory of Abe Gould, within ee heart and without ostentation flowed milk of human kindness.”’ If there is a man in St. Louis to-day, who tered any of the big downtown office Buildings and hotels yesterday and did. not ntribute something to the fund for car- ing for the sick poor during the coming r, he cannet plead lack of opportunity. the entrances to all those places were refully guarded by noble women—emis- aries of the Saturday and Sunday Hospital clation—who solicite@ every person assed through the doors, for some os to the charity, they nt It is not uncomplimentary to the work of the association in the past te say that its committees wete never more aptly chosen repre- yesterday. In the first place, the com- ttees were larger. is was made pos- ble by the greater interest which the as- lation has gucceeded in raising among society, ladies of the city. When the 1 for volunteers for the soliciting work fe issued, the responses were poured into the its forces’ more successfully employed n e association's headquarters so liberally at the officers immediately determined to morease the number of ladtes at each iciting post. It was also deemed advis- e to put more committees in the field to cover more buildings and hotels usual]. In this way, a great improve- nt was made overiast year. _In the second place thed4adies in charge of different posts manifested more jnterest ey and determination. was the expresse wish of the leaders at all men, who had business in any of @ places where posts were located, should given an opportunity and that none uld go unsolicited. In conformity with s plan, the soliciting committees allowed one to escape and the wish-of the leaders all should haveta chance to give was ed out to the letter. pleasant surprise to the officers of the ociation was the interest taken in the lection by etrangerse itn the city. This ms manifested at the hotels in a munifi- t manner, and the collection boxes con- mn eeveral hundred dollars which were tributed by travelers. The most liberal ponses py this class of donors were elved by the posts stationed at the uthern g@nd Planters’ Hotels.

But records of the great- buildings are quite as creditable, because the percentage of their returns W@s as great as those of the larger ones, The work in| these places was a rush Was on, and there was little left for the comunittees to do in the aftermyon but solicit additional donations to those already given. In every case where a donation was made, the donor was presented with association, Upon it was printed the Gen- eva cross and the corporate name of the association. It not only proclaimed that the wearer was a charitable man, but also served partly as a_ protection from fur- ther additional solicitations.

Barney Frauenthal, Who Knows Ev- erything and Forgets Nothing, Got Left When He Started on a Jour- ney for Himself. This is ‘a story of how a man who every day gives accurate directions to hun- dreds of travelers about the arrival and departure of more than a hundred tra:ns, became buidly confused when he wished to go somewhere himself. The dramatis persona is Barney Frauen- thal, the deuble-brained superintendent of the Bureau of Information at Union Sta- tion, and the time of the incident was last n.ght. Krauenthal had planned a trip to South- eust Missouri—to attend the ded.cation of @ church. he said. He had arranged to leave has ofiice at 7 o'clock and was to go to his destination on an lron Mountain tra.n, which was due to puil out of Union dilation an hour later. He left his desk at the appointed hour and joined a party of friends who had ex- ressed a desire to see him to his train. Jhey must have hypnotized him by the dejightful enlerta-nment they gave him. lie became so deeply jnterested in the many things they ala for his amusement that his brain temporarily suspended its double-functional power and he was abie to think only of what he saw. Now, Barney does extraordinary things every day in a business way. It has been ,@stimated that he answers 10,000 questions in every eight hours he is on duty. They dea] with everything that the human mind can think of in connection with a train. But he always gives the information just as it is desired and never makes a mistake. But that’s when he !s speaking for the benefit of others. When he is dealing wit)lr himselt, it is different. Then -he becomes @s ignorant of the ways of trains as those to whom he deals @t information every ay. After lingering with his friends until the last minute, ne bade them goodby and start- ed for the train. He went to track § and elbowed his way through the gate. The’ gatekeeper stopped him and asked him where he was going. He waa in a very great purty, but waited long enough to reply that he was going to Southeast Mis- souril to apend Sunday. “Then, What do you mean by taking the Wabash train?’ yelled the gateman, as he ran after the hurrying Bureau of Informa- tion Superintendent. Barney stopped and clasped his hands e@bout his head. He stood for a minute in deep thought. “Blank it all!” he said, “I've got my trains mixed. I thought I was on the Iron Mountain Road.

Probably one-half the people who see this article suffer from piles. It is one of the commonest of diseases as well as one of the most obstinate and painful. _ People suffer from piles for years and just because it is not immediately fatal we neglect it. varelessness causes no end of suffering. Carelessness about so simple a thing as piles has frequently caused death. Hemorrhages occur from no apparent cause and the loss of blood causes death. Surgical operations for piles often cause death. Piles are simple in the be- ginning and easily cured. , They can be cured even in the worst stages without pain, loss of blood or de- tention from business. And the remedy which will do it surely and completely is the Pyramid Pile Cure. It allays the itching and inflammation immediately, heals the irritated surfaces, and after regular use for a short time re- moves the swelling and puts the rectal membrane into sound, healthy condition. e Pyramid Pile Cure cures all forms of piles thoroughly and permanently. — A great many pile remedies contain cocaine, morphine and similar dangerous drugs to quiet the pain and make the patient believe he is getting well, but their action is temporary and it requires no argunient to show. the danger of using such remedies. The Pyramid Pile Cure contains no cocaine, narcotic, nor any poisonous drug whatever, and it is so far ahead of any other pile remedy for safety and ef- ficiency as not to be mentioned in the same class. : Any sufferer from piles who will write the Pyramid Drug Co. of Marshall, Mich., may receive a valuable little book on the nature and cure of piles, sent free by mail. Or better yet, ask any druggist in the United States what is the safest and surest pile cure and he will say the Pyra- mi All druggists sell full sized packages of the Pyramid Pile Cure at 50 cents.

The charges against Barney Karlton were brought by James Hickey, a Terminal Railroad engineer, who lives at 4340 Ken- nerly avenue, He had been arrested on a charge of being drunk and was locked up. Kariton offered to go on his bond. When Hickey was released Karliton got, his en- velope from the Marshal's office. Hickey said it contained $18.65. Karilton, 80 Hickey said, counted out his fee and anded the engineer what remained. Later Karlton asked for and received $2 more. This was for “recording something.” en Hickey claims that Se counted his money and found that Karlton had taken all and had afterwards taken $2 of that. engineer told Judge Sidener that carlton hat told him to plead guilty and he woul fix the fine.

Sympathy for the Boers Expressed and Great Britain Denounced—Philip- pine War Inhumane. A mass meeting at Aschenbroegel 604 Market street, last night condemfed the policy of the Administration in regard to the Philippine and Boer wars: In the first, the position of the United States was declared directly opposite to the spirit of Independence and in the Beer war the Mc- Kinley Administration was domineered by English influences. Owen Miller called the meeting to order. In the opening speech he said he thought there Was a secret understanding between the Administration and Joseph Chuamber- lain, Coionial Secretary, and he believed the people of the United States did not know the true relations, and so they condemned the present executive poiicy. He reviewed the course of Great britain since the in- dependence of the United States, He de- clared that if it had not been for the intervention of Russia in '61, Engiand would oy declared war against the United ates. “Now,” he sald, “comes McKinleyI., Em- peror of the Phi.ippines, who began as a clerk to Abraham Lincoln and took a to- boggan élide to Mark Hanna. We protest against any Alilance with forejgn nations, and especially with Bngland. wouid \rather believe honest old Paul Kruger than ali the scarlet-coated men of Briton," Deafening spplause followed the close of Mr. Miller's remarks. Wiliam J. Atkinson was called to the chair, He condemned the Philippine war and likened President McKin.iey to Cesar and Hannibal.. He said McKinley was con- ducting a War that robbed people of their liberties and that soldiers of this great gov- ernment d churches and burned towns, After Frank K. Ryan had been chosen secretary, Judge Krum wae introduced. The Phillppine war, be thought, wag ne- farious, unamerican and destitute of the Sympathy of a majority of the people of the United States. He condemned the policy of the Administration and read resolutions that censured President McKinley for con- verting a war for humanity into a war of conquest and for entering into any ‘“‘under- standing’’ with Great Britain. The friendli. ness of that power in the Spanish war was ascribed to commercia] reasons. The reso- lutions quoted George Washington on the inadvisability of forming a foreign alliance. Judge William F. Smith read a speech of Mr, Chamberlain's, delivered to the boot- makers of London, who were seeking the establishment of government workshops, that all might have employment. Mr. Chamberlain asked that the peop.e do not criticise th Olicy of the government in expanding British territory because in con- tinuous expansion lay the hopes of the British laborer. It was thus shown, ac- cording to the author and the speaker, that British wars of conquest were not waged to give people better government, but to ex- pand British trade. The South African war was waged, he said, on that principle. A number of @uditors made short speeches attesting the sympathy of the Democracy with the .Boers and condemning anythin perenne, between the United States an Great Britain. ‘Puach and Judy For children’s birthday and Christmas par- ties.

Copyright. 1899. by the Press Publishing Company. LONDON, Dec. 2.—W. T. Stead gives the following statement to the Post- Dispatch, warning Americans against placing reliance in the professions-- of friendship made by Secretary Joseph Chamberlain. Mr. Chamberlain’s references to a triple alliancé between England, America and Germany was characteristically inaccurate. You can best judge his authori- ty to speak on such matters when you remember he stoutly asserts that public opinion, as represented in the press of the United States, enthusiastically approves the piratical war he is waging in the Transvaal. The man who can say that can say anything, but it should never be forgot- ten that Chamberlain is the only Minister of the Queen who has committed de- liberate perjury, and who, although challenged repeatedly to clear himself, hever dared answer his accusers. There is no alliance with Germany and no alliance with the United States. As for Mr. Chamberlain’s statement that an alliance with Germany is natural, it may be interesting to recall the fact that, in 1885, he declared just as émphatic- ally that the natural alliance for England was with France. In 1885 Chamberlain was as blatant in Support of a French alliance as he is now in support of a nat- ural alliance with Germany. statement made by Mr. he had ‘never known anything concerning The perjury which I have referred to was a false Chamberlain before the South African committee that the conspiracy at Johannesburg against Krifger in 1895. This was false and known to be false. CHAMBERLAIN AS A CONSPIRATOR. ~ It is important to Americans who may contemplate alliances with Chamber- lain to know the way in which the conspiracy at Rhodes had entered into a comppact with the leading reformers of Jo- about. Johannesburg was brought hannesburg to support them in making an honest insurrection for securing polit- ical rights for, outlanders. On that assurance Amiericans at Johannesburg united _ with the Engfish to prepare the insurrection. ‘Chamberlain refused altogether to hand over the land troops for the pur- poses of the raid, but’ finally consented to meet Rhodes’ wishes, thereby he be- came a party to the conspiracy. But to gain glory (Kudos) for himself, instead of allowing the insurrectionary movement to make an honest insurrection under the Transvaal flag, Chamberlain insisted that the insurrection be made under the British flag, that the independence of the South African Republic should be de- stroyed, the Transvaal reduced to the po sition of g British colony, with a Gov- érnor appointed by Chamberlain. EVEN RHODES STOOD AGHAST. Rhodes was aghast, knowing the attempt to introduce the British flag would endanger everything. Rumors of this reached Johannesburg, and the immediate result was that it knocked the bottom out of the insurrectionary movement. It was when the Venezuelan question was exciting feeling between the Americans and England that the Americanymembers of the Reform Committee point blank fefused to have anything to do with the movement if it-was to be exploited for the purpose of jumping the Transvaal for England. It was this act of Mr. Chamberlain’s in endeavoring to convert an honest alliance with Americans at Johannesburg into a dishonest conspiracy steal of the Transvaal for England that wrecked the whole scheme and led directly to the present disastrous war. It was to cover up his share in this conspiracy that Mr. Chamberlain. per- jured himself before a committee of the House of Commons. If I may plagiar- ize one of the most famous of Mr. Chamberlain’s previous indiscretions I should Say after the experience at Johannesburg any American who ventured to sup with Chamberlain would need a very long spoon.

LONDON, Dec. 2.—Mr. Chamberlain's liking for straight-flung words has only thrown the capitals of Europe into '@ turmoil, but his declarations have been ‘Dy no means acceptable to those in Eng- jand who ‘are responsible for the relations” with the United States. It appears that when Mr. Choate made his Thanksgiving speech he was quite ignorant that Mr, Chamberlain was speaking so definitely | wegarding tangible alliances, and the am- bassador did not. intend his generalisms yegarding Great Britain, Germany and the ' United States to be taken as confirmation of the Colonial Secretary's outspoken re- It would appear that Mr. Cham- berlain only told half the truth, for in these dispatches of November 2 it was pointed out that negotiations were afoot for an aliiance looking for a settlement of the far eastern question. The Outlook, particularly well informed on Chinese mat- ters, says this week: “The keynote of the new understanding will be found in the words ‘open door.’" . In view of Secretary Hay's denial to thé Chinese minister, it is presumed that the United States, at any rate as yet, has not decided to claim any sphere jn China.

Hig official recognition of the French press diatribes and threats of retaliation made in his Leicester speech have incurred the censure of many of his own supporters, wh.le his utterances irri- tated France almost to an alarming ex- tent.

He says: “Kipling, though not a poet in the hee sense of the word, is as near a poet as can be tolerated by the hasty, ephemeral judg- ment of the day. He represents with more or less accuracy what the mob is thinking. when savage animalism and ignorant vain- glory being in the ascendant. ‘““Hevis hailed on every street corner, and : is crowned by every newspaper, Kipling, on scarcely any single occasion: has uttered anything that does not suggest moral base- ness or hover dangerously near it.’’ Turning to the conditiun of -the public mind, of which Kipling’s success is a symp- tom, Buchanan rates “the coarse and soul- less patriotism of the hour,” adding: ‘True imperialism has nothifg in common with mere lust of conquest, with the vulgar of the spirit of mercenary militarism. Its object is to diffuse light, not to darken the sunshine; to feed the toiling millions, not to immolate them; to free man, not to en- slave him.”’ . It was Robert Buchanan who in the British Quarterly Review attacked the poetry of Dante Gabriel Rossetti in an article on ‘The Fleshly School of Poetry."’ Rossetti’s verse, long known to his friends, had just been given te the public, who had known him only as a painter whose pict- ures were seldom seen. Rossetti had shrunk from publication, and only consented for peace’s ‘bake after years of urging from his brother, Aa) Michael Rossetti, Hall Caine, Swinburne, Ruskin and others of that great group which surrounded him. He shrank from contest with Buchanan, and Swi le took up the cudgels for his friend and b in a defense of the ftleshly schovl.

With two associates ‘he bought an inter- est in the good will of a small suburban store at Clapham for $80,000. This he resold to a syndicate for $210,000. The syndicate then issued to the public a prospectus of a company, entitled ‘““‘The Auxiliary Stores,” with a capital of $1,407,000, for which the Clapham ‘stcre was the only asset, and, it was stated, this was intended to form the nucleus of a widely extended business. Stock ‘shares were issued at $5 premium. No other businesses were secured by the company, and Sir Blundell Maple, who held $300, in stock, presented a petition to get the concern wound up by -court. After negotiations the directors agreed to return subscriptions and refund money to the stockholders, but, the shareho‘ders allege, on the condition that Maple with- drew charges against thera. Lord Mayor Newton admitted the facts concerning the promotion, as stated above justifying his participation on the ground that he only got $10,000 out of the original venture and that it was a legitimate en- deavor to make profit. Three Aldermen, Newton’s predecessors in the Lord Mayoralty of London, in the last 10 years got into unpleasamt notoriety as company promoters, but not during their term of office. One serious aspect of this cuse is, accord- ing to the testimony of promoters, $20,000 was expended in bribing the financial edi- tors of London papérs to notice the com- pany favorably.

Va., Dec. 2.—There is good reason to believe that the Illinois authori- ties have made a blunder in arriving at the conclusion that “Ellis Glenn,” the myste- rious female prisoner in jail at Hiilsboro is Mrs. Rader, formerly of this place. Mrs. Rader’s family are confident that she is dead, and there seems to be strong evi- dence to back their belief. Aside from this fact, the statements made by Mrs. Dr. Fullerton of Irving, Il, as telegraphed here are full of inaccuracies, due probably to the. lapse of time since the occurrences of which she speaks.

Rader ahd “Ellis Glenn” are the Same person. Here is the history of Gora Cunningham, as it is known to scores of ' persons in this city and county: é Cora Rader was one of a family of five children, born and raised in Upshur County, West Virginia. She was the oidest child, having two sisters and one brother, all youn manger than herself. While the children were quite small, Mr. _ Cunningham, her father, left home and ' the las heard of him he lived in British Columbia. tty family moved to this (Web- ster) pane, Oy years ago, and about 18 ears ago her mother, Amanda Cunnin am, married a very worthy and estimabie citizen of Addison, and afterwards moved on a farrh, three miles north of town, where they now ‘live. They have two sons, about 16 and 16 years of age, respectively. Cora, about the year 18384 or 1885, married M. C: Rader of this ani and they lived to- gether for several years very pleasantly, unti] about 4 peer 1888 or 1889, they sep- arated, pendi ivorce proceedings. Rader became enamored with Mrs. Frances Coe, the wife of William Coe, who lived in the game vicinits; about 12 or 15 miles east of Adéison. C vi ®, wife had left him and had taken up lu aging at the house of her brother-in-law, Gilbert Buckharmon. Rader had KK... paying her some atten- _ tion and while he and Coe were apparently good friends, yet Coe gave way under the Seale of jeaiousy,. and one day in July res up in rear of the house and find- Rader, and his wife all alone, except ra small children, and Mrs. Coe sitt: ng | in: Rader’s tap, killed Rader. Coe. was’ arrested and tried a month la- ter, and sentenced by the Circuit Court to a life sentence in Moundsville, the State Penitentiary. where he staid for about 10 hy dee Be fir in prison, after her husband’ s death, staid in t Add.son for & year or 80, work- ing as a domestic, and part of the time staying at the home of her mother. She afterwards went to Philadvlphia. Her peo- ple and .acquaintances were surprised one day when Cora arrived from Philadelphia with a child, a little boy about a year o!d, claiming that she had married a man by the name of Riss—a railroad man, who was killed in a wreck or the road. She staid at the home of her mother for a year or 60, and left. year ago last July a man and a beau- tiful little boy, dropped into Addison. The man said he was the husband of Cora Ra- der, that she had died of typhoid fever at Cedar Keys, Fla., and had directed before ~O ¢ death that he take the child to her mother and that was his m'‘ssion here. Cora's boy is now living with his grand- mother. Cora’s husband !eft for his home in the North, after delivering the child and an old trunk in which were found a few effects of woman’s apparel, with a switch of hair, cut from Cora’s head ~~ re she died, which shé requested, with | the trunk and effects, to be delivered to her mother. The name of Cora’s third husband was Treadwell. Francis Coe still lives fifteen s east of Addison, four miles from re Rader was killed. Another fact ing to disprove Glenn’s identity as Mrs. ler, is the fact that the latter had a | spot, on her head, caused by a burn. ‘Dispatches from Hillsboro say that “Ellis Glenn” has no scar of this kind.

Lloyd was unmarried and lived at the parental home in Cumber- land, Md. About a year ago Richard was going West when he was met on the train by a former colege chum, who addressed him as Lloyd, and, despite his protest that he was Rich- ard, dragged him to his home in Chillicothe for a few day’s recreation, In Chillicothe, among the young ladies Richard met, was Miss Quinn, to w he was introduced by the Yale man as his old college chum, Lloyd Lowndes. She was much pleased with her new acquaintance; so much so indeed that she told him on leaving that he would hear m her soon. reichard wrote to Laer at once and told him he would probably receive a letter from Miss Quinn and gave him several pointers so that he might frame an ap- propriate answer. A regular correspond- ence between Miss Quinn and Lioyd was the result, and finally the young man determined to pay Chillicothe a_ visit. Meanwhile he received further informa- tion from Richard, which enabled him to act as if he were the Lowndes scion that had been in the town. Miss Quinn did not discover the difference. The tender sentiment was reciprocated. Matters ae gressed well, but it was not until Lioyd | 2a, vary 7 at ‘a Fin, . 8 bie ee od ee, NS oe Until January | all who have taken medicines frem any source whatever fer any form of sickaess, be it Catarrkal treuble, Broachial troubie, Dyspepsia, Kidaey troub'e or Liver trouble, or any Other infirmity, wiil be treated antil cured at rate of $3 a month—ali med- icines included. There was published some time ago an interviéw with Docjor Copeland, who in substance said: “Yes,~ of course, we are giving the rate. One reason is, it strikes a tell’'ng blow at the practice of ‘boodle spe- cialists." Another is, it gives us an oppor- tunity to demonstrate the field this prac- tice covers. to treat all diseases. Then it enables us to systematically take under our care by mail pat'ents living at a dls- tance, who cannot afford the railroad fare. It makes possible to the sick skillful pro- fessional care and treatment at a cost equal to if not less than, the cost of the average patent medicines. Another very good reason is, it affords an opportunity for old friends and old patients, as well as new, to learn for themselves about the New Treatment. concerning which 80 much has been said and written. All these reasons are vindicated by the grati- tude of the crowds, who are taking ad- vantage of the opportunity.”’ — What Dr. Thompsen Says: ‘*You need not have to question very hard about this $3 Rate,’ said Doctor Thompson to the writer. “While I agree of course with what my colleague said, I have this to add. belleve in special of- fers. If it e possible, I should I’ke to have one to give over day. I believe in them because TH GIVE US A CHANCE TO CURE PBROPLE THAT WE COULD NBVER GET HOLD OF IN ANY OTHBR WAY. People will come when they know they are getting something of great value for practicaHy nothing, when they would not come for the sake of health or life. Patients may be divided into two classes. First, the Indifferent; those who have grown used to their condition, who realized it perhaps in the beginning, but who have grown so used to it that they ate deaf to any ordinary call. Second, the Disoouraged and Dishreartened; those who have been treated by’ unskillful, ignorant or unprincipled men. Now, for reaching the Indifferent and Discouraged, there is nothing that serves us as does such an offer as this, which brings them in multitudes. I should like to have such an offer every day, for if we can only get hold of these patients, get them in- to personal contact, so we can explain to them their disease, and show them the methods that cure and demonstrate to them that we can and will cure them, we can save health and the life. “These two classes of sick, the Indifferent and the Discouraged, are something like in- tractable school children, who can't be per- suaded to go to school. With the school children, there either has been something wrong in their teaching or else they are naturally indifferent to weer e With the Discouraged and Indifferent sick, there has been something terribl pny A in their previous doctoring, or else they have grown so accustomed to their condition that they fail to recognize its seriousness. And so it is that I rejoice when a spe- cial offer is given, and we can wel- come hundreds and maybe thousands that I know we can cure. I rejoice in such an offer, for then I see the sick coming along like truant children— coming in unusual throngs, to be sure, but coming to give us the opportunity I always eagerly long for—the oppor- and happiness where restoration - had i been deemed hopeless.”’ INSTANCES OF CURE?

Special to the Post-Dispatch. ?, LOUISVILLE, Ky., Dec. 2.—Joe Carter and Silas McHenry of Carter County ate Thanksgiving dinner at the county fail. They are brothers-in-law, and for 10 years they have eaten their Thanksgiving din- ners together. The last dining was out of the.ordinary, yet it seemed to be as much enjoyed as it could possibly have been in Carter’s home in Carter County. In fact, it was not until last Monday that Carter knew that he was to take his tenth successive Thanksgiving dinner with Mc- Henry. The latter did not expect it him- self until he was arrested by Deputy Tom Hollingsworth for making moonshine whisky. Carter was taken into custody by Hol- lHingsworth a month ago. He has since jan- guished in jail, bemoaning the fact that he would be unable to dine either Thanks- giving or Christmas day with his wife. lit- tle ones and Si McHenry. The subject seemed to be Carter’s principal cause for grief over his confinement.

With His Feet Upon the Gold Standard the President Will Discuss the Problems of Ex- pansion. Special to the Post-Dispatch. WASHINGTON, Dec. 2.—The third an- nual message which President McKinley will send to Congress on Monday or Tues- day, will*unduubtedly be the most valuable political document his party will issue dur- ing the campaign next year, when he will have been renominated. The entire message has been drawn with the sole idea of -catching votes.’ Its two most conspicuous features will be an appeal to the patriotism of the ptople and the financial platform. The patriotic plea was couched: in extravagant metaphors, historic, laudatory and seductive. he leaders who assisted in arranging the message pronounce it to ‘be irresistable. Mr. Hanna is exuberently enthusiastic over it, and the leaders of Jess importance have to use a lot of adjectives when they speak of it...But the most potent featuré of the mes- sage, as the less sentimental leaders view it, will be that portion devoted to the finan- ces of the country. Gold, gold, gold—will be the keynote. Throughout the entire message, whenever there is an opportunity to interject it, the golden theme will be tntroduced. The eva- sive and half apologetic declaration in the St. Louis platform of 189 will be ignored and the most emphatic language be em- ployed to make manifest the purpose of the President to stand unquestionably for cur- rency reform from a single standard. In dealing with imperialism the President will exercise extreme caution, himself with an historical review of the at- tempt to reconstruct the governments of Cuba, Porto Rico, the hig og ™ y Hawaii and Guam. No reference will bé made to the treaty which the President has made with the | 7 eAmoUs Sultan of Sulu. No recommendations will be made concerning the sort of government to be eventually es- tablished in the Philippines. Regarding Cuba the President will con- fine his recommendations to a further de- velopment of the government he has es- tablished there, suggesting an extension of the civil features of At, which have already been experimented. He will undoubtedly recommend the es- tablishment of legislative and judicial heads to supervise the administration of the laws by Cubans, who may be elected to effice next year, and the gradual withdrawal of the military forces that govertis at present. Porto Rico, he will say, should have a territorial form of government, similar to that enjoyed by Arizona, New Mexico and Alaska. The President will also suggest that more moderate tariff regulations be provided for Cuba and Porto Rico. Hawali, the President will point to as an example of what the other colonies may be- come under favorable conditions. He will suggest a liberal territorial form of govern- ment, as he believes these people are capa- ble. of caring for themselves under the watchful eye of the United States. Guam and the new Samoan island, which the United States hag inherited, will not come in for any particular attention at the hands of the esident, he believing that they are both properly conducted. The diplomatic features of the message will be confined to the usual expressions of amity to all nations. ‘ The suggestions of the Secretary of the Navy and of the Secretary of War regard- ing their respective departments will be embraced in the President's message. He will sanction the addition to the navy of an armored cruiser of 13,000 tons displace- ment, 12 gunboats of 900 tons arid three pro- tected cruisers of 8000 tons. He will also recommend a change in the law for reward- ing officers for conspicuous conduct in bat- tle and for extraordinary heroism. Inc!- dentally, he will call attention to the ne- cessity for more Hberal pension laws to cover such cases as that of the family of Capt. Gridley of the Olympia. The President will also sanction the rec- ommendation of the Secretary of War for the establishment of an interchangeable staff, s0.as to compel staff and line officers to serve in both branches of the service. He will ‘also recommend the creation of a school of military tactics for the instruc- tion of officers. he creation of an addi- tional number of major-generals will also be recommended. The President will urge Congress to enact the Hanna-Payne ship- ping bill which proposes a subsidy to ves- sels carrying American registry. In connection with the President's in- dorsement of it he will suggest the neces- sity for the completion of the Isthmia Canal as soon as possible. The report of the Secretary of the Treas- ury, which w:ll accompany the President's message, will be pointed out as a most sat- isfactofy showing of the condition of the nation’s finances. Afrangements have been made to print 10,000 more copies of the message than are usually issued. These will be for general and political distribution. _ LEAD AND ZINC ORE. Large Increase in Output Shown in Miuing Report. Special to the Post-Dispatch. JEFFERSON CITY, Mo., Dec. 2.—State Mine Inspector George E. Quinby will state in his annual report on lead and zinc that for the fiscal year ending June 30, 1899, the output of lead was 70,829 tons and of zinc ore 181,480 tons, valued at $9,120,861. Jasper County last year produced lead and zinc ore amounting to $3,085,795; this. year the product amounts to $5,476,920, showing an increase of $2,391,125, or i] per cent. Newton County had an output last year amounting to $224,589; thie year its ore sold for $465,464, showing an increase of $240,876, or 107 per cent. Lawrence County had an output last year amounting to $362,815; this year her output amounts to $767,806, an increase of $404,990, or 111 per cent. The three counties above named produced 99 per cent of the total outout of ginc. KILLED BY A NEIGHBOR. Quarrel Between Farmers Finds in the Death of Henry Broker. OMAHA, Neb., Dec. 2.—Henry. Broker, a farmer living two miles north of Glen- wood, Io., died Friday night from a gun- hot wound infilcted by a neighbor, John (Martin. ). The two men had quarreled over the trifiing sum of #4 cents, pty" after which they met in a field near Broker's house, . Martin was armed with a shot- gun, and during an altercation he fired at Broker, who was grasping both barrels of the gun. The discharge tore off Brok- er’s right hand and several of the shot penetrated his body, causing wounds which soon resulted in death. Martin immediately rode to Glenwood and surrendered himself to the Sheriff. VOLUNTEERS ORGANIZE. Regiments of Eighth Army Corps Will Be Invited to Denver.

TAKING ADVANTAGE PRESENT SITUATION. Politicians Disturbed Over the Tuch- echmidt Case and Anxious to Unload the Collector From Office. The faction in the Republican party which is not friendly to Collector Grenner is getting ready to take advantage of the Tuchschmdt defalcation to make trouble for the Collector. It is stated as a fact that a delegation will go to Washington to demand his dismissal. It does not appear that definite arrange- ments have been made to do so, but there } no doubt that it will be done. Leading Filley Republicans who were seen last night admitted that such a thing Was in the a.r, but claimed that so far as they knew definite form had not been given to the intention. City Marshal Henry Reinstedier was-one of the Republicans credited with knowledge Oofwhat was being done. He was seen last night at his home on Norsyth Park place. He admitted he had heard that there was such an intention but denied that he was taking any part in the movement. He said: “There has. been some talk’ of making a ,Gemand for the removal of Grenner. ‘To- day there was a crowd of people in my office and somebody, I do not remember who it_was, said that a delegation would go to Washington to insist that the Gov- mens make a demand upon Grenner for fs resignation.

MR, GAVETT EXPLAIN AMOUNT OF OASHIER TUCH- SCHMIDT'S DEFALOATION. NEW SYSTEM OF CHECKING. = the Stamps Had Been Counted Daily It Is Said the Embezzlement Might Have Been Prevented. When Treasury Inspector Gavett con- ciudes his investigation of the books of Arnold Tuchschmidt there will probably be a new system of checking accounts in- augurated in the local Internal Revenue Department. Those famillar with the inner workings of the office say it would have been im- possible for Tuchschmidt to have diverted a dollar of the Government funds if the stamps were counted dally. Inspector Gavett told the ‘Post-Dispatch yesterday that this should have been done at the close of business each day regard- less of the trouble involved in so doing. Chief Deputy Canley reposed confidence In his trial balafice, which is prepared monthly, and which, he says, wouid have instaritiy detected any irregularities. The stamps, Mr. Cantley sdid, could not be counted every day, as there is constantly @bout $1,000,000 on hand. Revenue stamps, so expert accountants Say, are no more difficult to handle than paper currency. Millions of gold and sil- ver certificates are often counted at the:, United States Subtreasury in the course of a day. In the Subtreasury, where the funds are scrupulously guarded, the different fellers are not allowed more currency than is necessary for business requirements, and they have to balance to the cent with the chief teller’s books every day. It has been shown that Tuchschmidt had charge of the entire receipts of the Internal Revenue office and all the stamps were in his care.

Mrs. Carter Comes With a Doctor, but She Says She Never Was in Such Good Health Before. Mrs. Leslie Carter, who opens in “Zaza”’ at the Olympic to-morrow night, arrived in St. Louis on a train three hours late, last night. She was accompanied by quite a retinue, including no less than three maids and her private physician, Dr. T. K. Wissinger of Columbus. Mrs. Carter looks well, and shows few traces of her recent illness. Mrs. Carter was compelled to cancel three weeks of her “Zaza’’ season because of a malignant attack of quinsy, which seized her in Columbus about the middle of No- vember. She went to New York, accom- panied by Dr. Wissinger, who attended her in Columbus, and has been resting under his care ever since. As a consequence, she says, she was ready to resume her playin the middle of last week, and is in splend condition now. In this her physician bears her out. He says the hard work in the title role of the play is not what has been troubling her, But attributes her necessary cancellation of a part of the season to the quinsy attack entirely. Mrs. Carter came direct from New York and stood the trip very well. She was fatigued from the journey, and she has ‘looked brighter in her life than she did at her hotel last night. Still, she talked of her coming engagement in a happy strain, and declared that she never felt better abie to do therself justice. “Why,” she said, as she laughed and shook her tawny hair, ‘“I’d have been back on the stage a week ago if his auto- crat of a doctor had not stayed right there in New York and made me behave. I am anxious to resume ‘Zaza,’ and have lodked forward to my stay.in St. Louls with much pleasure. I shall rest fo-night and all day to-morrow and Monday, and by Monday night you will see that I bear no traces of my recent illness.’’ Dr. Wissinger says that Mrs. Carter is better by far that she was before hé saw her in Columbus, and that she will not only be fully able to appear to-morrow, but that she will have no trouble in fill- ing -her engagement here. Mrs. Carter was a striking figure as she entered the hotel last night, She wore a big beplumed black hat, that set off well her reddish hair; a long biscuit- colored redingote, and a dark gown un- derneath. She looked anything but a sick woman, and she talked less like one. There was a great skurrying about on her ar- rival, and a regular procession. made up of the star, her three maids, physician her advance man and several members of her company, filed through the corridor to the elevator after her.

PLAN FOR ANNUAL BOAT RACES Sedalia Alumni Society Taking Initia- tive in Inaugurating University | Rowing Contests. Special to the Post-Dispatch. SEDALIA, Mo., Dec. 2—A member of the Sedalia Alumni: Society of the Missouri State University has taken the initiative in inaugurating an eight-oared ‘university shel race that receivec the indorsement of the Alumni Societies over the State assembled in Kansas City Thanksgiving day. The plan formulated is a race between the (Missouri University and some neighboring university to be held annually, late in May The idea contemplates rowing ‘the race on the Missouri River at Kansas City or on the Mississippi at St. Louis. If held at the former place Kansas University is to be the opposing university, if at the latter, either Iltinols or Washing- ton University. Just north of Kansas Cily the Missouri Pacific skirts the river fora mile and south of St. Louis the Iron Moun- tain runs on high ground near Jefferson Barracks a sufficient distance in many places for a view of the race course, On either railroad an observation train could be run at such a speed as to keep the spec- tators constantly opposite the racing shells and in ful view of the race from start to finish. That such an contest will come to be one of the chief annual fixtures in amateur sport in the Mississippi Valley is not doubt by the members of the local society. a Pee ? ~-«- ~ Vrrrr erry yr. 106 Fe a ee ee Se A. ae - » _— .

INDORSED BY M’KINLEY. THE SENATOR OUTLINES HIS PLANS TO POST-DISPATCH. ‘Werritorial Form of Government Will Be Advocated at the Coming Session of Congress With- yut Delay. a Gpecial to-the Post-Dispatch. WASHINGTON, Dec. @—Senator Cullom wants Hawalil made a territory, and so does the President. The Senator outlined his plans for, the coming Congress to a Pos ispatch reporter to-day. “Or of my first efforts at the coming sess of the Senate,”’ aaid he, ‘‘will be to urge the consideration of legislation to complete the taking in of Hawali by the United States. I have talked with Presi- dent McKinley concerning the steps to be taken, and he agrees. with me that there should be no delay. The government I shallbadvocate will be territorial and pro- vide for the same representation in Con- gress that the United States has heretofore granted her Territories. ‘“*That the people of the Hawaiian Islands ‘are qualified to manage their own affairs and are entitled to a delegate in the House of Representatives to voice their will, no one who has a knowledge of the Hawalian question should deny. The native Hawaii- ans are a kindly, affectionate people, con- fiding and liberal, and they are intelligent to a degree of intelligence that has not been attained by many communities of the Union. “For nearly © years they have enjoyed a@ constitutional form of government bused on the American system, and tested by any reasonable test, Hawaii will show that she has a right to come under the principle that entitles every inteiligent American- spirited community to representation in tne Congress of the United States. “It is sald that to permit Hawaii to have a delegate in Cungress would be a step in the direction of permitting the territory to have at some time in the future Senators and Representatives ‘in Congress; that it would, in fact, be a step in the direction of her admission to the Union. In the opinion of some people this idea is unde- sirable, because they do not believe that a territory separated from the mainland should ever be admitted as a State. These objectors declare that all territories of this kind should be held as colonjes. In regard to this I think it would Le a’ waste of words to attempt to distinguish between a territorial and colonial form of government rie the Constitution of the United ates, If Hawall were made a colony this would not prevent it from becoming a State at some future time, if circumstances demand- ed, and Congress should so determine. If, on the other hand, it was made a territory, this would not insure that it would become a State. “Tn either case it might be given a govern- ment, by whatever name ‘allied, either more or less liberal than the governments of British colonies or some American Terri- tories. The real question is, what is the best form of government for the isiands at the present time, considering the needs of the islands and the focm of government already existing there, and the interests of" the United States and the forms of gov- ernment approved by American opinion? “It is obvious that Congress should be troubled as little as possible with legisla. tion for the islands, on the one hand, and for this reason, as well as becauee it is in harmony with American and republican institutions, the islands should be given as iibera] and representative a vernment as can safefy be given them. Hawaii does not ask to be admitted as a State. If the time ever comes when the number and character of her population are such as to | otherwise entitle ‘her to statehood, it wi!l , then be time enough to consider whether it jis good policy to admit as a State a ter- bie separated from the mainland. “What is done with Hawali cannot be \Fegarded as a precedent as to what shal! be done -with Porto Rico and the Philip- ae. Hawaii etands alone. Her case is | nique. Hawali is already an American country and has been for many years, Her poeple are Americag in spirit and totally ifferent from the vast numbers who in- ‘habit the other newly acquired islands, and | who neither appreciate nor understand re- ; publican institutions. Hawaii has enjoyed a constitutional government framed on the [American system for nearly 60 years. In the rT nature of the case none of the , Other islands could expect the same degree ;of local self-government as Hawali, even though it may be thought best that Hawaii | lbh eted er) those red pannee, should not, of separation from the ever become a State.” — DAUGHTER ° FORBIDS BANS ‘Young Girl in Chicago Stops Her |’ \ Mother’s Wedding After the wpamany Began. » CHICAGO, Mec. 2—Minnie Falbey, 1 gears old, objected to a 23-year-old step- father and stopp her mother’s marriage.

Defendant Indicted by Johnson County Grandjury and Arrested in Oklahoma. Special to the Post-Dispatch. WARRENSBURG, Mo., Dec. 2.—The case of State of Missouri ve. D. W. Wyrick, charged with the mutilation of etock and destroying of farm implements, is being tried in the Criminal Court here. The State is represented by Prosecuting Attor- ney Bradley, assisted by Col. Lamm of Se- dalla and A. B. Logan of this city, while the defendant's interest is attended to by J. W. Suddath of this city, Samuel Kelley of Knob Noster and W. D. Steele of Sedalia. The particulars in this case, as given to the Post-Dispatch readers at the time, are in brief as follows: The Bank of Knob Noster held a mort- gage on a #0-acre tract of land belonging to Wyrick, situated south of Knob Noster, luquer i +thia county, The notes held by the . ee being satisfied. the land was sold to satisfy the mortgage, but the farm failed to bring the mortgage price. From that time Wyrick became enraged at the bank Nals. and, as stated by a number of the | are : le n s threats ; “s witnesses, made umerou pot nt any one whe went upon the jand, and declared it wou!d be the bank. Shortly after the sale of the farm two valuable steers belonging to Mr. Shoemak- er. who had purchased a portion olf the land from the bank, were found dead, with a bullet hole through their bodies. A few days, following some farm machinery on the lace was discovered completely destroyed, his so enraged the bank officials and peo- ple of the neighborhood that they deter- mined to run down the guilty parties at any cost. Every effort on their part at the time proved of no avail. A few weeks later, a mile of ‘wire fencing was cut and a large amount of chop feed was scattered in the yasture, where a fine herd of cattle was beirig fed. Mr. Shoemaker, on finding the chop feed in the pasture, at once suspected something was wrong and gathered it up and sent a quantity of the chop to a chem- ist in this city, who made a careful test, and found it to contain a sufficient quantity of strychnine to kill hundreds of dollars’ worth of stock. The bank officials dispatched to Sedalila and secured two bloodhounds and set them on trail of the suspects. The hounds went directly to the home of Wyrick. No action to prosecute at that time was taken and they waited untli a strong web of circumestancial evidence was securely woven around him. The matter was then called to the attention of a sagt ford of Johnson County, which found an indictment against Wyrick. June, 1899, a deputy sheriff was sent to Perry. O. T., with the neces- sary papers for the apprehension of Wy- rich and arrested him and brought him back to this cit.y He gave bond for his appearance at this term of the Criminal Court. The case has atiracted considerable in- terest from the first and the result of the rial will be of interest to many through- ut. the State and Oklahoma. | a sorry deal ves | 10 SIT THE COR MENELIK II.

Soon after graduating from one of the best medical colleges in the world (over a quarter of a century ago), I became convinced of the importance of __ special study and attention to the much-dreaded and health destroying dis- _ eases of the Genito-Urinary Crgans and Blood and Slk:in Diseases. _ It was generally conceded by the profession that the failure of success in ve * the treatment cf these diseases was due to the fact that they had not received etna By eve ‘i. oe streets and atleys.

By the time the water flows down ‘to the Chain of Rocks, is pumped into the works through a layer of sand, is pumped into, settling—basins, from there forced to the topot great towers and then shot through pipesSall over the city I contend that disease germs in it have all been destroyed. “Ascribing the infection to the water does not account for the fact that typhoid fever occurred only over a circumscribed area. The fact that this area was far removed from the Waterworks and the water had had every chance to purify itself tends to discredit the -theory. The fect that in Lowell. where the water comes direct from -the Waterworks, there was no fever at all. disposes of the theoty entirely. ‘‘Even granting that there are germs in the water as it come from the hydrant it does not follow that the infection is due to that. The seat of the disease is in the intestinal tract, in the small intestines, where the greater part of the food is digested. The water taken ihto the stomach does not pass through these intestines. It is claimed that the germs intréduced into the stomach through the water drank is carried thence into the intestines, but this is far fetched. It is a good deal more convenient and a good deal more plausible to ascribe it to the food directly or to other agencies which are more direct. “The typhoid fever epidemic occurred in a district where the plumbing is supposed to be of the best. That is a mistake. There | are a great many flats, and the plumbing’ in thous is notoriously cheap and bad. But even if the plumbing was all that could be desired the sewers would account for the spread of the infection. The sewerage in the newer parts of town is very im- perfect. It is in these parts that typhoid and other fevers rage most. Qut beyond 5800 there is right now more malaria than in any other part of the city, and it is of the most virulent type. It is not the water which causes it. It is thé sewers, plus imperfect plumbing, plus _ negligence and incompetence in the Health Department. That department seems to be powerless to compel the observance of sanitary re- quirements which are necessary to the preservation of health. They have ‘sani- tary inspectors, plumbing inspectors and all other kinds of insvectors. They go te a house and inspect the plumbing and f° away and make a report and that is the end of it. The landlord does not make the necessary repairs and the tenant is lucky if he does not die. “Filtration of water does not make wa- ter pure. It makes it more agreeable to look at by eliminating the harmless colof- ing which comes from the soil, but ({f there is impufity or the germs of disease in it filtration does not remove them. The only thing whi can do that ts boiling or distillation. ‘If the sewers are looked after better. owners of buildings are compelled to have the plumbing in good condition, the streets and alleys are kept clean, I will let. my patients drink all the river wA&ater they want to and I will assure them that they will not contract typhoid fever.”’ KENNEL CLUB MAY DISSOLVE Directors Say Money Has Boen Lost on the Last Two Bench Shows.

A meeting of the stockholders has been called for that date to vote on a proposition to disso:ve, The club ‘thas lost money on the last two bench shows given.

DR. M. F. McLAUCHLI STARKS. NOT GUILTY —— GOVERNMENT HAS DROPPED THEIR PROSECUTION. AGENTS ACTED TOO HASTILY. Washington Authorities Decided the Stonehill Wine Co. Was Inno- cent of Wrongdoing. The prosecution of George Stark and his son, Otto G. Stark, who, as president and secretary of the Stonehill Wine Co., were arrested a few months ago on a warrant charging them with a violation of the in- ternal revenue law has been dropped. In accordance with orders received direct from the Commissioner of Internal Rev- enue at Washington civil and criminal action against the persons mentioned was dismissed in the United States District Court yesterday. It is stated on high authority that the local revenue agents acted hasti.y in caus- ing the arrest of young Stark and his father. ; The Stonehill Wine Co. is the largest con- cern of its kind in the West. The plant, which was seized by the Government, is jocated at Hermann, Gasconade County, Mo. It is valued at $250,000.

For 40 days the plant at Hermann was shut down, resulting in a loss of thou- sands of dollars to the Starks. Attorney Warwick M. Hough Wag re- tained to defend them. Mr. Hough 4de- clared at the outset that the action of Collector Grenner and his men was an outrage and he proposed to carry his Clients’ grievance to Washington. Washington has spoken, and in an un- mistakable manner has apprised Collector Grenner of its decision. “Theer was no reason,’ said Mr. Hough, “for the premature steps taken by the Certainly there Was no occasion to bring criminal action against Mr. Stark and his son, and as the local officials seemed to treat my conten- tion with indifference I went to Wash- ington And laid the situation before the Commissioner of Internal Revenue. “It was clearly established that neither of the Starks had been guilty of any at- tempt to defraud the government. In their employ was a green clerk who failed to comaln with certain requirements of the Internal Revenue Department. He knew no more than I would that he was acting contrary to the Government stat- utes. “Numerous cases of the kind are set- tled right along at the Internal Revenue Department without recourse to law. “When matters were presented in the proper light we paid into the Government $1500, not because there was any evidence that we should have done so before, but merely to straighten out the Irregularities referred to, upon which the Government had based the warrant for the arrest of the Starks. Mind you, there was no fraud committed, nor was there any intent to defraud shown. Mr. Stark did not care to be worried with any legal proceedings. “I do not deny that the Revenue De- partment acted in good faith, but it was the manner of their action that we might be disposed to criticise.” man, and Rev.

Could she have seen him before she died she would have been supremely hap- py. That pleasure being denied her, she made sure that should he ever come back to the old home he weuld find a welcome and a competence, If Henry Nordhoff is alive to-day, and if he reads this, he will know that he was not forgotten during all the years he has been away from home, Mrs. Nordhoff died. two weeks ago. She was well known in North St. Louis, and had lived at 2522 North Thirteenth street for a quarter of a_century. She had two sons, Joseph and iHenry. Joseph still lives at the old home. Henry’s whereabouts are not known. Mrs. Nordhoff’s will was filed for probate yesterday. It was one of the most e- culiar documents of the kind ever re- corded in St. Louis.

The testatrix declares that her son Henry disappeared in 1895, and she be- lieves he is dead. Still she provides that if he should return within five years he be paid $0 a month out of the estate dur- ing the remainder of his life. If he does not appear within five years the residue of the estate will go to Joseph. If Joseph should die within five years the estate will be turned over to the @atholic Or- phans’ Home as residuary legatee. Joseph Nordhoff lives alone in a portion of the house at 3&2 North Thirteenth street. He has long since ceased to hope that his missing brother will ever return. Last night he told the Post-Dispatch the queer story of Henry's disappearance. “I do not belleve my brother is alive.’’ he said. “If he were he would have re- turned lom before this, for he loved mother an me. We have used ever means to trace him, but without avail. His going away was atrange. In the spring of 1895 he was ill and at times de- lirious. | One morning there was an earth- quake ‘shock.

Kipling, according to Mr. Buchanan, !s not a poet, but representa merely the fool multitude charged with savage naliam and full of ignorant vainglory. The criticiam is too severe. Kipling is probably the most péven writer of the day. He writes on the lowest plane, but “Often rises to the heights of rea> vision and a. see gh ees Pee ENT Ee ce om self as a poet. He is much too * and sometimes is guilty of mere animalism. His patriotism is of the swash- buckler’s variety, which is mere brag and bluster, but he is alive to the realities and gives them their due. The Recessional was neither savage nor ignorant. It was a true voice, an utterance of a national spirit. Besides, Kipling is democratic. He loves the common man. He comprehends his vices as well as his virtues, and doesn’t try to make him better than he is. Kipling’s view is human, sympathetic and direct. If he is savage it is only because the savage is not yet eliminated from humanity. Mr. Buchanan would restrict the poet's insight to the vir- tues of man. That will do Well enough in a community of saints, but we miserable sinners like to be appreciated, and we are thankful that there is one poet who dares to tell the truth about us. 2. > . ie oi The cleaning and lighting of the Federal Building seems to depend on Surveyor Charles H.

Yerkes of Chicago is going to New York to live,. where he can’ better enjoy the $30,000,000 presented him by the city of Chicago. Mr. Yerkes has had an eventful career. He began business in Philadelphia 40 years ago, but was not unusually success- ful until he invaded Chicdiee in 1883 with $40,000. He organ- ized a syndicate there in 1888 and got control of the street car systems of the city. He “financed” them with great skill, and through the generosity and dishonesty of the Board of Aldermen obtained franchises which have netted him an enormous fortune composed of the “unearned increment.” The “easy’’ Aldermen turned public values into Mr. Yerkes’ pockets, which in any reasonable view ought to have been kept for the use and benefit of the city iself. We know something of similar practices in St. Louis. The United Railways Company has made off with some $50,000,- 000 of the ‘unearned increment which might have been de- voted to the improvement. of the streets, and perhaps been employed getting the city ready for the World’s Fair. But the Governor of Missouri listened to arguments and our blessed Municipal Assembly did the rest. Now the “financiers” can go to New York’to enjoy the wealth they get in St. Louis. When they meet Mr. Yerkes they will poke him in the ribs and he will return the com- pliment. It’s a good joke. But it’s on the other fellows. So why shouldn't they enjoy it? Did somebody say money couldn't be got without earning it? That’s good .enough doctrine for common folks, but “financiers” know better. >a — a ae As a result of the collection of franchise taxes, Louisville, Ky., finds herself ready to make e@ smart reduction in her tax rate.

Board of Trade Is Itself Powerless Under the Iron Hand of the Stor- age Trust cnd the Transpor- tation Lines. 4 CHICAGO, Nov. 26.—Charles Councel- man, the boss of the Chicago elevator system, in his testimony before the In- dustrial Commission this week, admitted that five men met every day near the Chicago Board of Trade and fixed the price to be paid for wheat the next day. He explained that this was done to bene- fit Chicago to bring the wheat here for storage. Further testimony indicated that the ele- vator “cobine’’ controlled the price of wheat on the Chicago Board of Trade, except on abnormal occasions such as @ famine in Europe or when a plunger like Joe Leiter comes in and _ temporafily makes a success. It was the elevator com- bine and the railroads, indignant at Leiter’s intrusion, that wound up that young man with a loss of $7,000,000. Since then no one has dared to dispute the sway of the ‘‘combine.”’ The chief object of the elevator men is to keep their elevators full of grain, sell it for future delivery, collect the storage, and, when delivery day comes around, mix the wheat with inferior grades to such an extent that the purchaser may incur a loss in accepting, thus forcing him to liquidate and leave the wheat with the “combine.” It is then sold for another future delivery and the same manipula- tion repeated. “The railway and elevator combine,” said ‘Mr. Greeley, “block the natural flow of commerce. Millions upon millions af bushels of wheat are hoarded at market centers to depress™prices, for these men 4 being carriers of grain for storage pend- | ing the time of future delivery, for which the product is sold, it is evident that the lower they can get the values of the crops the less the insurance, interest and other charges necessary to hold them, conse- quently the larger profits. The storage charges always remain the same, not de- clining in proportion to the depreciation in the value of crops. This system of hoarding and selling for future delivery drives away and discourages investors and buyers. It forces them to sell out and perpetuates an endless chain of ‘liquida- tion.’ This storage combine encourages ‘bear raiders’ and bucket shops, whose success is made possible by the operations of the trust. Farmers, merchants and la- borers suffer.”’ To illustrate. the position of the trust: Suppose the collector of the port of New York should engage in the tea, coffee or silk business and pay no duty on his im- ports, but charge all,other handlers of these goods full duty. And not only this, but should take upon himself the right to mix, sort and manipubate in trade the silks, teas and coffees of the public. How long would competition with him exist? The public pays al] the storage. The ware- houseman pays no storage and owns and deals in grain. Competition for the crops. is already ex- tinct. The trust has re@éady fixed the price at which the grain is marketed. It has already advanced a long way toward fixing the orice at which the public must take the wheat and flour. Two things must be done, educate and organize the ople; tell the farmer what forces are at work making their producte sell under the cost of production. Let farmers and laborers know their battles are the same, and that wheat in the 60s and 50s, corn under 20 cents and oats around 20 cents in Chicago with ruinous rates of freight to be paid out of these figures, present a condition known to all—under-consumption, The primary cause of the depression {i grain prices is due to a pwhblic official act- ing a8 a private grain dealer in a pwblic warehouse, with the permission and co- operation of railroad companies. Many of the cauees of hard times in re- cent years arise from this alliance. Public grain warehougsemen are the servants of the people, licensed by the State, created by virtue of the necessities of commerce, who, while authorized by law to act as cultivators only, usurp other privileges, form a trust and year by year kill the interesta of the producers, who creaied them. Their motto is “the lower the prives, the larger our profits."’ The courts have dec'ded that public ware- hoveemen could not deil in grain. Then the trust went to a recent “boodle” Legisia- ture and hed a bill passed giving them power to deal and manipulate other peo- ple’s property. It became other peopie's roperty when it was soid for future de- ivery. Before the elevator men went into the grain business and began manipulating prices Chicago was the greatest grain mar- ket in the world. The price was always around $1 a bushel: There were plenty of buyers and competition sustained prices. Between 1887 and 1890 new forces began to he felt. The interstate commerce law had gone into effect and before the close of 1890 nearly every railroad entering Chicago made an alliance and took elevator systems under its protection and gained control of Special to the Post-Dispatch. CHICAGO, Dec. 2.—The Industrial Commission, through its sub-commit- tee on transportation. has during its — sessions here established this act: That the greatest combination in the United States to-day is the combina- tion that fixes the maximum price to be paid the farmers of the country for 500,000,000 bushels of epring and win- ter wheat harvested annually. The proportions of this “combine” dwarf the Sugar Trust, Standard Oil, Feder- al Steel and the other giants. In the “combine” are four railroad systems with a mileage of 2%,000 miles and a total capital of stock and bonds | amounting to $1,000,000,000. These rati- roads are the Chicago, Buriington & Quincy, Chicago Rock Island @& Pa- cific, Chicago, Milwaukee & St. Paul, Chicago and Northwestern. There are five men who meet every day in Chicago and fix the maximum price to be paid the farmer next day for his wheat. The principals are Ar- mour & Co., Charles Counselman, Ware & Co., Bartlett Frazier and the Peaveys of Minneapolis. The, men who meet are their agents and do their bidding. “Each one of these firms represent one of the railroads. Armour has the St. Paul, Counselman the Rock I¢4- land and the railroads discriminate and rebate in favor of this big elevator ‘combine,’ "’ is the testimony of 8. H. Greeley.. SES ES = 7 The great volume of the Chicago stoc now some 20,000, bushels, invites “sho sellers’’ in every market in the world to make sales here. This they would not dare to do but for the abnormal accumulations brought here and held by unnatural means. The alliance between the railroads and elevators has re- sulted in reaching out after millions of bushels of grain not naturally tribu to the Chicago market. When gathered here it is used to depress prices and never be given up so long as storage can be collected on it. Cargoes of wheat bqught on Euro- ean account in Argentine, Australia, In- aand Russia, as well as stocks at other points of accumulation, are sold against or hedged in Chicago. This market is thus world. By the most brazen methods the ‘“‘com- bine’ controls the price and movement of grain and forces buyer and sgliler to their terms. With the assistance of the railroads it has driven nearly every independent shipper and buyer out of the market. President Stickney of the Great West- ern Railway said: ‘“‘This unrestricted pow- er to acriminete in the matter of rates, lodged ia the hands of one man, the man. ager, say, of 3000 miles of railway, should never be lodged in the hands of any human being. Under such conditions what bust- ness is safe? The average business man feels strong enough and acute enough to cope with his competitors on equal terms, but here is 4 power he cannot compete with and he cannot avoid. This power, like a goveri.met, has authority to make tariffs and enforce their civilized government claims and no sovereign has dared exe for centuries, of rebating a portion of its tariff, and thus discriminating between its subjects in the collection of its revenues, It safe to say that if the Congress of the United States should enact a law which established on any commodity an unjust duty for the city of New York and a differ- ent duty for other cities, or one duty for one firm and another duty for another firm, the people would resort to arms rather than submit.” . The recent reinstatement of A. J. Val- entine, Armour’s Board of Trade represent- ative, who was suspended for a crimina) offense, indicates the power of the trust. Here ts a statement of the affair, made to the beard by John Hill, Jr. It throws a side light on the manipulation of the trust. In this case Cudahy was running a bull ae in wheat, and Armour’s man de- sired to “break” him by making him take the wheat on the assertion that storage had expired. On May 1, 1896, there was delivered to members of the Board of Trade, by Ar- mour & Co., fraudulent warehouse receipts to the extent of 1,200,000 bushels of No, 3 spring wheat, The magnitude of the swindle exposed it; by attracting attention of members to the number of receipts that were just re on delivery day. The directory promptly investigated the matter, and when the facts were placed fore them, they almost unanimously v the entire Armour system of elevators: it- regular. 4 As not only the rules had been violated, .but also a crime (punishable by im ment in the penitentiary for from ene ten years) committed; the directory. the good name and di nity of the tion to protect, caused a committee vestigate the members of the Trade responsible for this who : ery.

DIDNT SIVE. INFORMATION. Secretary of State Called on Them for a Statement and He Alleges He: Received No Response. Circu't Attorney Theodore C: Eggers filed suits yesterday against 19% corporations, which, he alleges, have failed to comply with the law of Missouri regulat:ng cor- porations of State origin. The specific complaint is that the defend- ants have failed to furnish Secretary of State Lesueur w.th a, statement of their capital stock, the par value of theiy shares, their financial condition, their relations with other corporations and the names of their officers, together with the extent to which they are interested in the company. The penalty tixed by the law for failing to comply with these prov.sions of the law is a fine of $100 a day for the time during which the delinquency continues. Circuit Attorney Eggers alleges that the delinquen- cy has already extended over 10 days and asks judgment in the sum of $1000 in each of the cases. He also asked that the State by reimbursed for its costs in prosecuting the proceedings to judgment. Mr. Eggers Says many suits are yet to follow, and w.ll be filed some time next week.

Refused a Million Dollars f>r- His Land and by Some Means Was Di- vested of It at Last. ductive lithographic stone quarry world, of which there is any knowledge, and for which fabulbus sums of money were offered, to becoming a pauper inmate of the city poorhouse, Is a far cry. But it is from the one mentioned extreme to the other that Martin O’Neil has gone. §8till genteel and still retaining an appearance .of better days he went over the hill to the oorhouse aerer. He never expects to eave it-until they carry him out to the hear-by potter’s fleld. Martin O'Neil is one of the best known contractors: in the city. fore he discovered a quarry in Southern Illinois, he was promi- nent and successful as a railroad contrac- tor. He had saved up a smal! fortune. It all went into the guarrv. Then sickne came. Litigation followed and he foun himself poorer than he was when he be- "gan his St. Louis career. It was in 1889 that O’Neil, who was doing some contract work near Cairo, heard there was a deposit of lithographic stone in Alexander County. As he sat in the office of the Board of Health Friday waiting for the wagon which would take him to the Poorhouse he told the story of how he dis- covered, acquired and lost the quarry. ' “T asked Clay Phillips, a farmer, to go with me,”’ he said, ‘“‘and we rode south from Thebes. About two miles below Thebes we crossed a stream. On the far bank _ the road forked. We wanted to keep on the Cairo road, but the county road seemed the most traveled and we took that by muis- ‘take. It was that mistake which resuited ‘in the finding of the quarry. We had gone oniy a few hundred feet when we came upon MARTIN O'NEIL. the rock. I got down and examined it and immediately recognized it as lithographic stone. I said nothing. Phillips did not know what I was looking far. ‘‘We found shelter at a farmhouse near by and the next morning returned to Thebes. I returned to St. Louis. I hired three men to go with me and went down the river on the next trip of the New South. We got off the boat at Commerce, crossed the river in a skiff and walked to the quarry. At midnight I dug out three samples of the stone and carried them back to St. Louis. finest ilithographic stone. “The next thing was to find out who owned the quarry, without attracting at- tention to myself. I went down on a boat again and stopped at the farmhouse of Pete Heller, acrovs the river from Thebes. He took me in a buggy down to the river. We hallooed and a man came across:in a skiff for us. We crossed over and went to the vicinity of the quarry. We could not find out who owned the land. ‘“‘When we returned to the skiff ferry the ferryman was telling us that he was about to lose the job of caring for three Govern- ment lights, for political reasons. He was an old man, and I told him that on that account I would intercede for him when I returned to St. Louis. I said I would like to buy a quarry around there and get out stone for the Government. The old man said his half-sister owned a quarry below Thebes and he would see that she leased it tome. It was the quarry of lithographic stone. “TIT found that on account of there being minor heirs I could lease the ground, Ifo acres, for only six years. I did that. I began to develop the quarry and a business man at Thebes tried to get it away from me. I tried to buy it at private gale, but found that it could only be gold legally at ublic sale. The woman who held it for the eirs agreed to the sale of it. As it was subject to my lease and the widow's dow- er, nobody else would bid on it and I bought it. I paid $8 an acre. I paid the money at once and filed my déeds, but I found after two months that the title to 40 acres of- it was not clear and I lost that much of it. “7 gare $12,633, all the money I had, on it. if uilt 11 huildings. Everywhere I sent the samples they were pronounced by ,the experts to be genuine. As the Bavarian beds are now exhausted and the deposit was 300 feet deep, my quarry seeméd to be worth millions. A syndicate of New York men offered me $300,000 for a half interest in it. We had a conference at the Laclede Hotel. They eaid they would buy only on condition that they held one more share than I. I told them I would diefirst. They then offered me a million for it. I refused the offer. ‘T had no more money to take out the stone. I took a St. Louis business man in with me, a friend of mine, so that I could continue the work. While I was sick at Thebes he went into court and had the partuership dissolved and I found myself the title and without a penny. I wrote to him. He 4id not answer. I went to see him when I came back to St. Louis. He would not talk to me. “For over a year I have been sick and unable to work. My wife left me five years ago. I have not heard from my sons for years. There is nothing left for me but to go to the Poorhouse. The lawyers have told me that I could recover the tite to the land, but I have no money and I am 72 years old and cannot keep up the fight any longer.” O'Neil went first to the Dispensafy Thurs- day. He then took with him a feather bed, some pillows and some quilts. He said he wanted to sleep on his own bed as long as he lived. He was told by Clerk Carl Schroeder that the articles could not be taken with him to the Poorhouse, He took them away and ve them to some oor people who had befriended him. When e came back Friday he brought two sheets with him and pleaded so hard that he was ermitted to take these with him to the oorhouse. . The old man was dressed neatly and wae altogether the most gentee! old man who has ne from the old City Halil to the Poorhouse in a’ long time.

Bank Statement as Favorable as Ex- pected, Except in Loan Ex- pansion. a NEW YORK, Dec. 2.—To-day’s stock market was sluggish and drifting through- out. Professional traders were tnclined to buy stocks at the opening with the idea of discounting a favorable bank state- ment. The appearance of the statement on the tape was the s-gnal for a light re- alizing movement, and as there was no outside demand to absorb it prices fell away. Tha closing was dull, but distinctly easy, the downward drift having ‘estab- lished a liberal sprinkling of net losses where the level had been higher through- out in the early dealings. Sugar and Glu- cose were strong on the reported plan for consolidation and absorption of competi- tors. There » were evidences of strength in Union Pacific, Northern Pacific, Bur- lington and Chesapeake & Ohio, and in one or two of the less prominent indus- trials. None of the gains were well main- tained, the whole list being effected by the easier tone in the final dealings. The bank statement was fully as favorable as had been expected, though the liberal ex- pansion in the loan account was unlooked for. The higher rates for money and the satisfactory Security offered are attractive in inducing the banks to keep their loans close to the limit of the legal allowance. he lack of response to the bank state- ment was due to the understanding that the recuperation in reserves was wholly —e to bond redemption operations with the subtreasury. The fact that the move- apt of currency is still in favor of the nter‘or on balance and the progress of the Sterling exchange rate towards the gold export point, a further step of which was made to-day, leaves the future of the money market still unpromising from the Stock operators’ ap of view. Ma agrly & in stocks during the week has en restricted to a few individual] securi- ties, and the general list has been rather neglected. The drooping tendency’ of prices was partly offset by the heavy ab- sorm-on of the great trunk line stocks e sharp upward movement in the of those properties. The reports put in circulation to explain these move- ge are’ m@stly anonymous and are far from being explicit. They range from al- egations of a consolidat‘on of ownership to milder intimations of a friendly and mutually advantageous co-operation. Though Jacking expiicit knowledge, the Wall Street public finds confirmation from the stock tape of its conviction that poli- cies have been inaugurated which prom- a substantial improvement of the trunk a s.tuation. The special field of the enefits to accrue is indicated by the way meg Pt po aah stocks have suffered of s trunk fine stocks, ting of holdings into esides the great Triink Line st : has been a Srleat ate pe a amie af tk stocks, selling u and a few even under $10 pak Dmeee ae strength of these stocks was attributed al- most entirely to individual causes, but the genera] tendency towards consolidation of small lines with each other, or of small lines with powerful. existing companies was a conspicuous element in the explana- tions offered of these movements. Such movements have resulted in a fair sprink- ling of net gains through the Hst. But the majority of stocks are slightly lower. | Disappointment over the failure of the money market to work easier, in spite of last Saturday’s improved showing of banks was the principal motive of the indisposi- tion to embark on speculation. It is the custom for stock ‘brokers to charge their customers 6 per cent for funds employed in carrying stocks, no matter how low the open market rate for call loans may go. Now that open market rates are ruling at or above 6 per cent brokers have been charging their customers accordingly and have met with protests. While the eall loan rate serves to wipe out the profit to brokers on loans they are not inviting operations by their clients on any extensive scale. e week’s events seem to put the return to cheap monev some time in the future. The Bank of England has waited to advance its official rate until it has se- cured control of tthe open market by sell- ing consuls and thus lifting. money from the market. The English institution ts manifestly fortifying itself aeainst a special demand to come later, partly to meet re- quirements for yearly disbursements . by corporations on Jan. 1, and partly, it is believed, in expectation of a further is- sue of Government securities to meet the South African war expenses. Dealings in bonds have been on a moder- ate scale, and price movements have been in sympathy with the stocks of the same companies. U.

A St. Louis Grain Dealer Says That the Interstate Commerce Commission Has Full Authority to Pre- vent It. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. While legislation increasing the power of the Interstate Commerce Commission is de- sirable to the end that the pub,ic may re- ceive fuller protection in accordance with the spirit of the Interstate Commerce act, it is,unfair to the framers of that law as it ndw stands to ascribe its inoperation to to dictate prices grain, to mon SO great an interest, and to throttle num- erous commercial egjorpemeee is atiained through “discriminatfin in com ; charged for tle transportation © per- ty,”’ and because of “undue or un n- able preference or advantage to a particu- lar person, company, firm or co tion. Sections 2 and 3 applying to just suc cases, and being sustained ®y the Supreme Court, the Interstate Commerce mmis- sion has all the power needed to protect the public in this matter. For a lon time the rafiroads have openly and defiantly violated that portion of section 3 ofthe act prohibiting undue Or unreasonable preference or ee to any particular description of traffic, in that they have discriminated in rates on the two descriptions of grain traffic known as export and domestic shipments, to tne great injury of the producer, comsumcr, manufacturer and general commercial in- terests. Complaint in this matter was filed with the Interstate Commerce Commission, and a hearing had some months ago. The commission was satisfied that the rail roads were guilty as charged, but viola« tions by the roads continue w.thout inter. ruption, though the Supreme Court “rec- ognizes the authority and duty of the commission to enforce sections 2, 3 and 4 of the act,” and section $3 covers the olf- fense referred to. It is not exaggeration to say that the grain trade monopoly, created by violation of the Interstate Commerce law by the railroads, and grain dealers accessory, is more stupendous and far-reaching in its evil effects than all other trusts combine Yet, the means for its extermination {s at hand, to be found in sections 2 and 8 ot the Interstate Commerce law indorsed by the Supreme Court. In the noted Joint Traffic Association case the Supreme Court ruled adversely to the railroads, but none of the roads have been prosecuted under the decision. The Interstate Commerce law was enact. ed with a view to the protection of the ublic, the most tmportant features of the aw relating to discrimination and undusé preference or advantage are backed up by the United States Supreme Court, and it it has become a dead letter it is hardly fair to blame the law and the sy VC bench.

Corn Made the Greatest Advances and Was Traded in During the Latter Part of the Week. The bears were in control of the grain markets during last week, though they were not able to effect any great changes The decline was gradual, occasionally be- ing punctuated by small advances, which caused the only moderately exciting pe- riods. Wheat was of the most interest of all the cereals, for its futures were almost sure to open soon after the session began, and this could not be said of the futures in any of the others. Corn after its openings usually made some good changes, making more advances than wheat, and when it was being traded in created as much interest. Oats, on the other hand, seemed to be of little or no interest to the pit, there not being a single sale recorded through- out the week, t — it was not neglected as far as bid and sale prices are con- cerned. The traders are still most uncertain as to the course the market will pursue this week. tI would seem from the present outlook that the bears will probably Rave control again, as at the present the for- eign markets are acting as the guides for the trade of this country, and there seems to be no poorer of an early falling off in their mo es which would make ad- vances poagsible in that quarter. Local receipts are exceedingly small, and those of the Northwest are not as ersaty improved as the bears earlier would have us believe that they would be. It was thought that when the Decern- ber was changed to the May that there would be some improvement in the trade, but as yet there is little change, the May has drawn a little more attention perhaps, but that shown December has fallen off enough to make up for it. December wheat opened at 67%c and closed last week’s trade at 66%c nominal. ne opened at 7T2c and closed at 70%c to c December corn opened at 30c and closed at 29%c to 29%c;."May opened at 3lc and closed at 80%c to Cc.

SLUMP IN EDISON BONDS. Passage of the Lighting Bill Hurt Electric Light Securities. The week just closed has been one of little moment to the St. Louis Stock Ex- COLLECTIONS MADE on al change, while the securities listed thereon would have been beter off if it had never happened, as the bears have n in con- trol, and have hammered nearly everything on the list. It has been a week of dullness, too, with a holiday intervening. There has been nothing on which the bulls could base a movement for recuperation, and as a con- sequence, the hammering has gone on with- out intermission, let or hindrance. Edisons have suffered from the passage of the lighting bill, and both stock issues and the bonds have slumped. Granite has besn a football for the brokers, and men who would not sell under $3 Monday, were ee to get anything In the 60’s Saturday. Oo reason was given for the raid; it was seemingly by consent all around. Other stocks, even those of the banks, suffered in the hammering, and the week closed with the bears in full swing. aE: FINANCIAL. DO NOT OVERLOOK NOTAWAY GOLD COPPER MINING CO.

Arrivals free, cash demand fair, but weakness in other grains led to gome selling by who were anxio get out. mitting of all railroad records and papers for inspection by the commission, the work of that body would be greatiy faci.itated. and protection of the public rendered more complete. : But, admitting that the Interstate Com- merce law could be improved upon, it ig nevertheless a fact that in its present shape it is calcuiated to guarantee protection to the pubiic, and, instead of being nullified by Supreme Court decisions, the cardinal] features of the law bearing upon discrimi- nation and undue preference are most em. hatically sustained by,the rulings of that Section 2 of the act paphibits unjust discrimination in compensation charged for the transportation of passengers or prop- erty; and Section 3 forbids undue or un- reasonable preference or advantage to any particular person,. company, firm, corpora- tion, or locality, or any partfcular descrip- tion of traffic, in-any respect whatsoever, or to subject any particular person, com- pany, firm, corporation, or locality, or any particular description of traffic to any un- due or unreasonable prejudice or disad- vantage in any respect whatsoever. These sections-(2 and 3) are sustained by [the Supreme Court in language not to be mistaken, as, according to its ruling it ex- pressly “recognizes the authority and duty of the commission to enforce Sections 2, 3 and 4 ef the act.’’ How, then, is the Inter- state Sommerce law a dead letter? Very true, the Supreme Court has ruled that the commission has no authority to prescribe maximum or minimum rates, but that body has declared that the Interstate Commerce Commission not only has the authority, but that it is its duty to enforce Sections 2 and % which sections cover discrimination in rates and rebates and undue or unreason- able preference or advantage by the rail- roads. The opinion was expressed by some wit- nesses before the Industrial Commission at Chicago last week “that discrimination in rates and granting of rebates to shippers of grain is caused by the fact that the Inter- state Commerce Commission has not the wer it is supposei to possess in the regu- fation of rates.’’ The testimony before the Indugtrial Commission indicated that, be- cause of discrimination in grain rates in their favor as against outsiders, “five mén n Chicago meet every morning and fix the price to be paid farmers for grain.” There is abundant evidence elsewhere that a gigantic grain trust, or combine, ex- ists among a very few firms; it is plainly evident that this comb:ne dictates prices to be paid for the grain crops of the Unit- ed States. It ts a notorious fact that this combine has driven from ‘the fleld of com- tition nearly every independent grain rm in the market centers, and absolutely controls the great bulk of the grain trade of this country, and it is an indisputable fact that power of the combine to St. Louis, Cable & Western St. Louls & Meramec River St. Louis & Suburtan incomes Southern Electric 6 p. c do. 200.000 reserve 6 do. general mortgage Union Depot Elec.

The failure of so many attempts at @ramatization this season, with the dead loss incurred in putting them on, has had a salutary effect on the mind theatrical, with the result that in the future, beyond doubt, the men with the money will be chary about sinking it in ventures of this sort. “Phroso,” given at the Century last week, is a case in point. There was failure in 1" is probable that the craze for drama- _ every line of that play, from every point of view. Hope's story was a pretty fair the wake of “The Prisoner of Zenda,” it had a vogue hat was remarkable. “Zenda” had been ramatized most successfully; it was one of the first, and it had a play in it, so it went. “Phroso,”’ the story, bore some of the ear- marks of pot-boiling, but it was good to gtand a fair degree of popular! upon “on own merits, and should have Seen t there. Instead, with the ‘Zenda’, sequel, “Rupert of Henhtzau,” a play was made of it—and it was, except in New York, a dis- ma) failure, wholly lacking in coherency and interest. When novels really give a chance for a strong stage story, it would be foolish to forbear using them for dramatic purposes, of course, but it is equally absurd, just because a book sells up into the many thousands, to think that it will be a stage success also. Too often, it is seen before- hand that it will not do so, but the tempta- tion to ‘‘work”’ the public is too great to be pressed by. When a novel, for any reason, makes a hit, the modern manager sends for his reg- ular play-carpenter and says: “Here! make me a four-act drama out of this. “But it has no plot,” says the play car- penter. “Then invent one,’ says the manager, “with all the dialogue you need, work up a thundering strong situation at the end of each act, and be sure to give us plenty of chance to spread ourselves on costumes and “‘scenery."’ “But how about the novel?’ says the car-° enter, if he happens to be a bit conscien- ious. “Oh, hang thé novel,” says the manager; “all I want is the title and the same names for the characters.”’ Joking aside, really that is about the way some of the modern ‘‘dramatizations’’ have been made. The manager simply wants the advertizing that the book has had, and he gets it. And the public is bunkoed—till it catches the trick. Then the backer is out, and the play is slated as a failure. Superstitition is characteristic of the opera singer as well as the actor, and mem- bers of the Castle Square Opera company at Music Hall are far from free .from. it. Two instances among the present cast of principals serve to indicate the strength of the feeling. Miss Mary Linck, the contralto, sets all her store by a gold buckle, made from a nugget taken from the famous Yellow As- ter mine at Randsburg Cal. bel'ef in the saving qualities of the bit of precious metal! that she is never without it, on or off the stage. If possible, she wears it in fuN view, but if the costuming does not admit of this the buckle is carefully stowed away somewhere on her person. The mine from which the nugget came is in the Mohaba desert and was discovered by a cous'n of Miss Linck. While she was on a visit to California she was presented with the lump of gold by the president of the company. A contrast/in this line is the article to which Miss Norwood gives most heed. She geems always wefl, yet she says she has been ill upon occasion and that it was en- tirely due to the absence from her dress- ing room of a pair of almost worn-out slippers which she was accustomed to wear while dressing or making up. When the slippers were restored and the new pair purchased to take their~place dis- carded, she declares all sign of illness dis- appeared. Miss Norwood also possesses another charm in the shape of a Roman coin amulet. Once she gave it away under importunities and the prima donna assever- ates that she had yy! but ill-luek until _ghe prevailed upon her fr iend to return it her. “A Stranger in a Strange \Land,” played @ few more than fifty times in New York City, and then went over the river to Brooklyn, where they go to bed early, and e first Monday night gave away souvene ~ ville houses are keen to ‘and are constantly So firm is her.

It has been announced that she is to originate a strong part in Fred C. Whitney’s forthcom- ing production of ‘‘Quo Vadis,” and through another channel that she is to start shortly upon an extended vaudeville tour. Neither report a to be correct at the present writing. he has had-an urgent request from Mr. Whitney to appear in the drama illustrating the time of Nero, and he has even gone so far as to say he wil] let her Play for one week and then accept her resignation if she wishes to offer it because of | dissatisfaction with the part. But Miss Seligman is torn between her love of legitimate drama and the exceedingly high financial inducements offered to her by the variety agents, and she has not settled on her own future, despite the announcement that she has been booked to appear at the Harlem Music Hall next week in a scene from ‘“‘In Paradise.”’ THE WEEK’S OFFERINGS. HE first appearance of Mrs. Leslie Carter in ‘“Zaza’’ in St. Louis will be Monday night, and we will see it throughout the remainder of the week at the Olympic. Her play, famous and much- discussed, is a product of the fertile pen of David Belasco. No emphasis .need be laid on the an- nouncement that the coming of Mrs. Car- ter is an event of the present dramatic season. St. Louis, will see precisely the production that was given in New York, it is declared; the text of the play being in no wise altered and the cast still including all whose individuality contributed to the strength of the piece. Tnere are 52 speak- ing parts, the most prominent of these be- ing in the hands of Charles A. Stevenson, Mark Smith, Hugo Toland, Marie Bates, Helen Tracy, Herbert Milward, Maude Winter, Helen Robertson and Girard Ander- son. There is also a little child, Theresa Berta. Some idea of the labor in playing the part of Zaza may be gathered from the fact that during a _snight’s performance Mrs. Carter is required to speak more than 28.000 words. Unti] last season the part of Fiamlet was held to be the longest speak- ing part in any English written play. Dur- ing the last year both Julia Marlowe, in ‘“Colinnette,” and Mrs. Leslie Carter, in ‘Zaza,’ greatly exceeded the verbal de- mands of the traditional Dane. Of these two, however. Mrs. Carter is required to work much more severely, both as regards the number of lines spoken and the intense nervous force the part itself demands. This caused her il!ness in Columbus and her rest of nearly three weeks. She returns to her work refreshed and revived, it is as- serted, and with much anticipated pleasure. There will be only one matinee, Saturday, and evening performances will begin at 8 o’clock sharp. ‘Sowing the Wind’’ will begin a week at the Grand Opera House with the matinee to-day, and at the same time it will mark the complete transference of the control and management of the house to John H. Havlin. The presentation of this play is one of the best evidences of what the future of the house will be under the Havlin management. “Sowing the Wind’ has to its credit a run of 200 nights in the Empire Theater, New York, and in its road tour this it) YF + j ais i yo ‘ i, eae LETTE SBP | yt sda Hu.

The play has had ome presentation in St. Lou's at high prices, but for its second ap- pearance selects Havlin’s. “A Day and a Night’’ Is rather legiti- mate in the possession of.a well-defined story and it has all of the old Hoyt idea of the grouping of pretty girls, bright and catchy music, topical songs and dainty dances. The story is one of an old naval officer, who returns from long service on a foreign stat.on to find that the boy he had left at home had grown to be a man. His mother had trained him into the ways that are strictly straight laced and he was one of the shining lights in their -fashion- able country church. He was commissioned to go to the city and engage choir singers and h'‘s father accompanied him. The old sea-dog forms a nice little plot with a theatrical manager ‘to introduee his boy to a lot of gifted chorus girls. The old man is in hiding and enjoying the show to the fullest extent. “At the Stroke of 12’ will be Havlin’s attraction, beginning with the Sunday mat- inee of Dec. 10. Sol Smith Russell will begin a stay of one ‘week at the Century to-morrow night and will appear in two of his famous char- acters. The bill for Monday and Tuesday evenings will be the ‘‘Hon. John Grigsby,” .the play which erowded the theater at every performance during Mr. Russell’s en- gagement here last winter. It was wr.tten by Charles Klein. On Wednesday, Thurs.- day, Friday and Saturday evenings and Saturday matinee Mr. Russe?! will be seen in his impersonation of Noah Vale in E. E. Kidder’s comedy, ‘‘A Poor Relation." Any playwright or player who can and does offer the public clean, wholesome cre- ations, depicting the real emot.ons that sway, mankind, glorifying the good, hold- ing folly up to public gaze and illustrating the weakness of human nature in a clean, bright manner, ts a public benefactor, Russell has worked along this line. Prof. og will be the Century’s attraction for ec. 10, “The Jolly Old Sports,” a farce-comedy burletta, is the topliner at the Standard this week. It is provided by Rice & Bar- ton’s Rose Hill Engiish Folly Company. In the olio are Joseph J. Sullivan, Miles and Raymond, Berry and . Hughes, Miss Carrie febber, Willard and Raymonn, Swan and Bambard. Vincent Wallace’s ‘‘Maritana”’ will be the bill the coming week at Music Hall, with the Castle Square Opera Company. As has been the case ever since the season opened Miss Adelaide Norwood will appear in the prima donna role of Maritana, but she will have with her this time a St. Louis fa- ‘‘vorite, Maud Lilian Berri, Who sang at the Cave last summer, will come here fresh from New York. In returning ot St. Louis Miss Berri will renew an old and pleasant relation with St. Louis audiences. In addition to’ Miss Berri, a newcomer will be Max Eugene, whose great voice ought to fill Music Hall with its full round tones, He will be remembered, perhaps, as ro husband of Amelia Summerville. Payne Clark, the. tenor, will also be a new face in the cast. Scenically the opera will afford lavish opportunities, the time of Char'es Il. of Spain admitting pf beautiful work. The chorus, as has been the case in all other presentations, wifl be a strong feature of the production, and will round out the pro- duction. Mechanical and electrical effects will be the feature of the production of “Shaft No. 2’ at Hopkin’s Theater this afternoon and during the week. Many of the effects used in the original Litt production have been brought from Chicago, and these will be installed, together with stage settings built by the regular corps of stage carpenters and scene nainters at the Imperial. In the third act the action is laid at the bottom of the mine and Miss Nettie Bourne, as Marion Dale, the heroine, is re- quired to fall ® feet down the shaft.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 2.—The Republican caucus to-night was a cut and dried affair and the programme was forced through exactly as arranged. Representative Boer- ing of Kentucky showed the only inclina- tion to break out. Speaker Henderson and @ll other House officers were elected by acclamation, and after this was done Rep- Tesentativé Boering inguired anxiously When his candidate for Sergeant-at-Arms Would be considered, “Winy, Casson has Blready been elected,” @ neiwnobor informed him. “I've got my man heré and want to Piace him in nomination. He's State Sen- said Boering. r. Boering in a speech reviewed the Kentucky elections and made a plea for a@tronage to strengthen his party, if Par- @r couid not be Sergeant-at-Arms. The ticket was forced through by the Jeaders with great rapadity in order to revent any outbreak. The new members ad their first glimpse of the big men of their party in action, and sat in open-eyed wonder at laize:l, Payne of New York, end others told them how they should vote during the coming session. Altogether the affair was tame and uninteresting. The only question of interest before the caucus was under what rules the procedure of the coming session should be conducted.

Perhaps no man has ever had more reason for being grateful to the Repub.icans of this. great Legislature than 1 have at this hour. I assure you that no man ever felt more grateful than 1 do.

REPUBLICAN PLANS. Senate Reorganization May Displace Historic Characters. Special to the Post-Dispatch. WASHINGTON, Dec. 2.—If the slate for Senate reorganization, decided upon by some of the Republican leaders to-night, goes through, historic “Dick” Bright will dis- appear from the office of Sergeant-at- Arms and a new man will sit at the Sec- retary'’s desk. The Senate contemplates the election of J. 8. Clarkson for Secretary, A. T. Stewart of lowa for Sergeant-at-Arms, end some Pacific Coast man, probably a Californian, to be named by Senator will be made Clerk. Both Cox and Bright have held their po- erkins, of Angon MeaCook tn the 583d Congress. Bright has enjcyed especially close rela- tions with many of the leading members of the Upper House and it is intimated that an effort may be made to create a new offite fof him in case he fails for re- / election as Sergeant-at-Arms. This new office probably would be Super- intendent of the Eapitol, and would be ac- companied with salary and emoluments eqval to those Co) Bright now enjoys. Hand Torn on a Gas Jet.

DEARMOND HAS / WO GRIEVANCE The Missourian Accepts Rieh- ardson as Party Leader. NO FEUD BETWEEN THEM. ON THE SIXTH BALLOT THE TEN- NESSEEAN WON THE PRIZE. With Bailey, Bankhead and Sulzer It ‘Was Anything to Beat DeAr- mond and the Combina- tion Won. Special to the Post-Dispatch. WASHINGTON, Dec. 3.—‘I am for party harmony and success. I accept the result of the Democratic aaucus with a cheerful spirit and will cordially support Mr. Rich- ardson in his management of the party policy on the floor.”’ This is what Representative DeArmond of Missouri told his friends in his. committee room when.the result of the sixth and final allot was announced and it wag known eat Representative James D. Richardson of Tennessee had won the honor of leader the minority. oor. DeArmond conducted a quiet, dignified canvass for the leadership. He made no romises and was given support in many States where the opposition against him was For four ballots he led the field In the number of votes received, and at the last compelled a combination of Baliey’s personal following with the Demo- crats of Tammany Hall to defeat him. Starting. with 39 votes Mr. DeArmond held his own and gained one or two votes on every ballot. At the gast he had 47 with Bankhead and Sulzer "out of it and their strength plumped to Richardson; the Ten- nesseean received 91 votes to 47 for DeAr- mond. The contest for the honor of leading the minority forces on the floor this session was a bitter one. There are no personal differ- ences between Mr. DeArmond and Mr. very strong. Richardson or between the Missourian and either of the other candidates. But between Represegtative DeArmond and Representa- tive Bafley of Txas there is a bitter feud. Representative Bailey is also at outs with Richardson, but from the start it was any- thing to beat DeArmond. Mr. Baliey failed in two plans. He failed signally to give his candidate, Bankhead of Alnboma. any considerable vote and failed utterly to induce any of tis followers to vote for Sulzer of New York. As a last al- ternative to prevent Mr. DeArmond’s elec- tion, Mr. Bailey combined his Southern votes with the votes of Tammany to elect a man whom he has not spoken to for two years. The caucus fight was a stubborn one, but the Missourians came out of it with rancor towards anyone. They ea Democrats, the Missouri delegation got one position, that of Assistant Sergeant-at Arms, which was given to Ewing Bland of Lebanon, son of the late Congressman “‘Sil- | ver Dick” Bland. Representative Benton of, the Fifteenth District placed Mr. DeArmond in nomina- tion, and seconding speeches were made by half a dozen members, During the early part of the contest one corner of the Capitol on the House floor looked like the lobby room of a Tammany wigwam, State Senator McCarren of Brecmys really directed Sulzer’s contest throughout its preliminary stages. A dozen other Tammany leadérs were near. What was supposed to be the first test of strength came over the agelection of a caucus chairman. At that time the four candidates for the leadership were arrdyed two against two, thus Bankhead of Ala- ibama and Sulzer of New York against Richardson of Tennessee and DeArmond of Missouri. Balley of Texas, the former minority leader, was arrayed with the Sulzer-Bankhead forces, and their candi- date for the chairmanship was James Hay of Virginia. The opposition’s candi- date for the chair was Thomas Mc- Rae of Arkansas. Hay was put in the chair by a vote of 77 to 62, and this looked like a victory for the Sulzer-Bankhead combination. It developed later, however, that this was not a fair measuring of votes, but it had the effect of meee © r. Sulzer feel very sufre that he would the next leader of the minority. The first ballot destroyed the confidence and peace of mind of the New Yorkers by the following result: Richardson, 44; Dearmond, 3; nkhead, 35, and Sulzer, °, * The second, third and fourth ballots revealed little or no substantial change in the situation, but . was evident that ere must soon a break. army fifth ballot, Sulzer dropped to 17, Bankhead had 33 and Richardson and De- Armond still had 82 between them, divided almost even. It would take 72 to elect, provided all present haem i. ee Meanwhile Representative Levy 0 Yous uauanet a 4 Sulzer and proposed that he compromise with Bankhead and with- draw in the Alabaman’s favor. This Sul- zer positivel refused to do, being advised by Senator iicCarren to stand his ground, Levy represented that the Pennsylvania delegation was break.ng and could not be kept in line, but Sulzer would not hear of withdrawing. While the fifth ballot was being taken Bailey of Texas, who really preferred Bankhead, but saw that of the weaker combination Sulzer was ther only man who had a chance to win, came out with the information that @ resolution would soon be introduced to drop the man who stood lowest in the voting. Th:s, of course, would leave Sulzer out of it alto- gether.’ Senator McCarren engineered a scheme to prevent such a disaster, and the result was that before the sixth ballot Bankhead withdrew flatly, and in favor of nooody. Senator McCarren and Mr. Bailey then got hold of Sulzer and fairly pushed him into the caucus to manage his own fight. Sulzer said afterward that once in- side he met with stronger counse! and within five minutes he decided to give up. He asked that his name be called, and when recognized he made a brief speech in which he thanked his friends for their support and withdrew in favor of Richardson. It was this move that threw victory In Rich- ardson’s path. Sulzer was understood to command the Bankhead votes, as well as his own, and without these Richardson could never have been elected, for the De- Armond men stood firm to the last and gave their man 47 votes on the final ballot, more than on any of. the previous ballots. After the final ballot the choice of Rich- ardson by motion was made unanimous. The new leader then went into the caucus and thanked his colleagues for the honor and Means Committee room, was escorted to the hall by Messrs. Ball of Texas, Car- mack of Tennessee and Sulzer of New York and made a felicitous speech thanking i his colleagues for the honor they had con- 'ferred upon tim. Owing to the lateness of the hour, he said, he would not do more than return his profound thanks, trusting that he had a proper appreciation for the great responsibilities placed upon him by the action of the caucus. His highest am- bition, he said, would be to meet these responsibilities and oeonaree them 69 as to meet the approbation of the Democrats of the House and of the country. “His chief regret, he declared, was that the re- sult of his victory would bring disappoint- ment, whi he hoped would be only temporary, to other gentlemen aspir!i to the trying position to which he had en chosen.

ae . ee igh fe INVESTMENT INQUIRY PERCEP- TIBLY ON INCREASE. AFTER THE LEAD PIPE THIEVES. “nforcement of the Law All That Is Necessary to Stop Them—Other Realty Notes. The real estate market begins to feel the tpproach of winter, and while there ts still tonsiderable inquiry, the transfers last week indicate the falling off in business which may naturally be expected at this season, Some of the agents report a very #00d business, and the greater part of the inquiries now are for cash. ‘Th3 invest- ment inquiry is increasing perceptibly, and is one of the most hopeful signs of the market. : Renting is still fairly active, and is kept up by the beautiful weather which is char- acteristic of St. Louis climate at this por- tion of the year. The money market continués Bpecial feature. Good loans at 6 per cent are difficult to obtain, and a 5 per cent bag is about all that lenders who intend to safe expect. Rout the Lead Pipe Thieves. Mr. James H. Maguire, president of the John Maguire Real Estate Co., last week, in looking over the local ordinance regulat- ing junk shops, made the gratifying dis- covery, which is known to very few, that if the existing law be rigidly enforced it will entirely Stop the depredations of the youth- ful miscreants who make a business of de- spollin vacant houses of plumbing ma- terial, &nd who, to get $5 worth of ma- terial, will do $75 worth of damage. It is a little singular that the points which Mr. Maguire makes have not been generally known, and is gent one 4 due to the fact that no one has taken the trouble before to examine the la'w ome To a represen- og Ne of the Sunddy ost-Dispatch he “The time has come when some action must be taken against lead pipe thieves. The matter has been discussed frequently, but no satisfactory results have been at- tained, These thieves are seldom, if ever caught. What then, is the remedy? If ‘taken hold, of in the right manner the problem can easily be solved. : How? Stop the pur@hase of this pipe and other metals, such as faucets, etc., stolen from vacant houses, and you have the remedy. It is through the junk deal- er, or second-hand dealer, that the thieves can be reached. The ordinance is very plain. From an abstract of it is noted the following: ‘Any person or persons engaged in buying or selling old junk, old lead, metal or any article usually found in junk shops * (whether such person has a regular busi- ness stand or not) shall pay a license, and such license shall not be issued by the License Commissioner unless such party be a propersperson to receive it.’ This word- ing, as can be seen, applies both to the buyer and seller of such material. The ordinance also reads, ‘Dealers ghal] keep a register of goods purchased, w'th names and residences of ail persons from whom they purchase old lead, iron, lead pipe, etc.; such register to be examined by the —_ or. any person; and if such register e not kept, upon conviction, such person shall be liable to a fine. Goods cannot be purchased from minors. This law shall epply to both second-hand dealers and plumbers handling such articles.’ The law is plain. Stop the purchase, and you have the thief handicapped. First of all, the license commissioner is a starting oint. If persons asking licenses are un- nown they should be recommended by at least two reputable citizens before license is issued, Again, a committee from the Real Estate Exchange ghould be appointed to ascertain whether Or not the registers as provided in the ordinance, are kept. not kept, the law is not complied with. If kept, the parties selling goods are easily traced, and to avoid fictitious names and addresses by the seller, junk dealers will be cautioned as regards purchases from unknown parties. There are a little less than 100 agents in the Real Estate Ex- change, all of whom do more or less of a Fenting business. Enough committees. therefore, could be formed to make the rounds of these dealers in short order. A circular letter should also be sent by the Real Estate Exchange to the dealers notifying them that the Exchange will in future see that the law is enforced, and that such dealers will be called upon to roduce their register, or suffer the penalty f not produced. If this were done the lead pipe thieves would, in a short time, seek other vocations.” without Notes. Mr. J. T. Don n, with the Matthews Real Estate Co., has a copy of the Nome News of Oct. 9, 1899, a little four-page, four- column paper printed in the famous Alaska old district. It was sent to him by his athar, Pat Donegan, who, though © ‘years\ of age, has heroically braved the Arctic dangers to search for the yellow metal. ~He has been there since July 1, and sends some marvelous accounts of the “ r man’s country’ around Cape Nome, such as | would make the average real estate agent, '@ho is aweary waiting for good times, en- ‘wious jo go there. Property owners on King’s highway, be- |tween Forest Park boulevard and on avenue, met at 718 North King’s highway last -W nastas sient and appointed Messrs. ,fiugh Brady, W. A. Holscher, M. P. Hysen and Charles George a committee to call on {the Street Commissioner, and learn what | steps were necessary to secure the im- ‘provement of King’s highway. Another ‘meeting will be held next Tuesday evening ;a@t which a report will be made and a per- | Mmanent organization will be effected. Large New Buildings. _ A permit has been taken out to tear .Gown the old building at the northwest jecorner of Fourth and Locust streets, pre- ;paratory to the erection of the new struc- ure for the St. Louis Trust Co. The Olivia Building Co., which contem- lated at one time the erection of a large shotel on the southwest corner of Grand ‘avenue and Windsor place, has commenced excavation on the site for the construction ‘of a four-story office building. Not enough round could be secured for a suitable tel. The office building will cost $60,000. A permit was issued last Friday for the erection of a part of the large co'd stor- age and icemaking plant, which is to go up in the northern part of the city, and an account of which has already been _ in these columns. The proposed buildings will cost $175,000, Notes From Real Estate Exchange. The second legal sale to occur on the floor of the Real Estate Exchange was held ~ moon last Tuesday, when Mr. Malcolm Macbeth, as special commissioner, offered at partition sale the lot 28x13 feet, on the south side of Delmar avenue, © east of Euclid avenue. The wisdom of holding such gales on the floor of the Exchange was aga.n illustrated in this case by the at- tendance, about 40 persens be'ng present. It has been many a year since # people a@itended thé sale of a 2%8-foot lot at the ,east front door of the courthouse, The bidding, too, Tuesday, was quite spirited, and the property was finally knocked down ‘to William P. Lightholder, who acted for Mrs. Emma ge gas 4 and Mrs. Julia K. Makie, ae gig ed n the partition su.t for $55.50 a front fgot. The transaction was re- ‘garded by every one as a very satisfactory one. Sales on the floor of the Exchange may now be regarded as an established custom, and the experience thus far dem- onstrates that the attendance is larger and the prices obtained are better than when the sales are held at the courthouse. The Real Estate Exchange has addressed a communication, signed by the officers and 6) agents, asking Mr. Pohiman to conduct all sheriff's sales at the Exchange, itn ac- cordance with the recent legislation. The names of Grund and Hormann and . BS. Fish are posted on the bulletin as candidates for membership in the Ex- change. There are now. nine candidates. John Maguire Real Estate Co.

The skirt question has been agitating ‘‘the la- dies’”’. not a little this season, for the reason that there are so few of them who can wear the severely Plain and tight fitting gowns, with the hope ike anything but a caricature. At the Drummond tea a few notably well , dressed women wore skirts which departed , Strikingly from + such favor at the beginning of the seagon. the styles which gained Miss Florence West, for instance, wore a handsome gown of white silk crepe over taffeta, with an overdress and bolero jacket of heavy cream lace. The skirt was made with a sweep and a plain width down the center of the back, on each side of which the material was gathered very full. The lace overdress began just at the edge of the fulling and extended down into points on either side, leaving the front of the skirt uncovered. the foot was a circular flounce of white taffeta on which was a deep accordion-plaited frill of the crepe. Mrs. Ben Sanford’s gown was aiso notice- ably new in fashion. The material was cas- tor-colored broudcigth appliqued and em- broidered in three shades of tan siik. The Waist was made with a bolero of silk ap- plique in which a few strands of blue showed, and the collar and girdle were aiso of turquoise-blue panne velvet. The skirt, with its rather long demi-train, was made with three box plaits in back, the plaits being stitched for a distance of about 14 inches, whence they fell loose to the end of the “sweep.’’ With this gown IMrs. San- ford wore a turban of blue and tan owl wings. ‘Miss Sidney Boyd, who is one of the most attractive of this season’s debutantes, n which was very much ad- costume was ma in princesse style of white panne velvet Covered, with small red satin dots, and trimmed very simply with pipings of crimson velvet. The skirt, with its graceful demi-train, was mrade to fit very closely about the hips and to flare bell-fashion at the foot. With this very ey tgons sinilax and some plants the dining room with ties of American Beauties and small fairy lamps. — The receiving party stoog@ before a biz vine wreathed mirror in the library, which was decked in roses and carnations.

Miss anewal, who is a very clever and attractive girl, wore a becoming gown of ge pink broadcloth trimmed With Hon- ton lace, appliqued on pink taffeta. Miss Lilie Manewal, who is also an uncommonly pretty girl, wore a one costume of ac- cordeon-plaited point ‘esprit, trimmed with lace edging, over a slip of rose-colored taffeta. Mrs. Louls Manewal's gown was of dove- gray broadcloth, t®#mmed with tueked white satin and shirred chiffon.

LOUIS—DECEMBER 3, 1899 _ ~ KHALIFA , " " J sphaisijstijsssipoee en i "tts, * es INOUKES BRITISH DOMIN Story of the Conquest of Equatorial Egypt, the Triumph of the Mahdi and De- feat of His HOW | WHIPPED THE KHALIFA, By Gen. Lord Kitchener. INGATE’S Arab scouts lo- W cated the Khalifa’s position at Omdebrikas. Our force marched from Gedil in the moonlight and frequently had to cut its way through the bushes. It arrived before dawn on rising ground overlooking the camp, which was hidden in the trees. We heard their drums and horns before dawn and at 5:15 the Dervishes attacked. Our guns opened fire and soon the action became gen- eral. Half an hour later the whole line advanced and swept through the Dervish position for over two miles, till the camp was reached. The mounted troops pursued and captured most of the fugitives. The ’ Khalifa, with most of his men, and the Emir’s bodyguard made a gallant stand. Among the Emirs killed were the Khalifa, his two brothers and the Mahdi's son. Nov. 22, at Godic, im the Soudan, has closed the last scene in a drame. The Union Jack flies over the palace at Khartoum, the Mahdi’s sacred tomb is in ruins. the bones of his wild fanatic hordes whiten the plains of Omdurman, Gordon is avenged. The vast Soudan region first attracted the world’s attention in 1882. Egypt nomi- nally controlled the Soudan at that time. But Egypt's claim was that of the child, Behind her stood England. It was English- ‘men and English soldiery that forced the wild desert tribes to acknowledge Egyptian’ suzerainty. The Soudan is a desert. Over 0,000,000 square miles of burning sand de- pend on one river, the Nile, for water. For a few miles on either bank He fertile lands. Away from the river sand drifts stretch to the equator. Over all is the burning sun. A roving population of 18,000,000 inhabit Rhis region. A hardy people, inured to hardship, accustomed to wage a daily war against nature, looking on bloodletting as their birthright, they made heroic fighters. Divided into many tribes they needed a leader to bind them into an irresistible union. Cherishing a legend that one day “Mahdi,"" or savior, would appear, they ‘Were awaiting his coming before combat- ing the might of England. In 1882 the Mahdi came. Not asa lowly savior, preaching humility and peace, bur as a firebrand, calling the clans, proclaim. ing holy war. And the tribes were quick to gather. From the desert and the mountains of the pper Nile the fierce Baggara horsemen @ to join the green standard of Ismal, y found the Prophet in an oasis near ftoum. He wore thé Dervish sack- _ loth. His command came from heaven, #0 he sald. _A Korfofan Arab, Mohammed ad, the Mahdi, was strangely fascinat- T* death of the Khalifa Abdullah, - RIF Pear od ae Pages tee a E Rae aeg Boca et Pye @. the Arab Successors. token for good luck. Tall and of com- manding mien, he lived the life of an as- cetic. As a messenger of God, directly inspired, to disobey his commands invited death. Nor was the penalty ever delayed. Soon his ascendency over the tribes was com- plete. All Kordofan was ab!aze. The town of Ell Obeid, garrisoned by Egyptian soldiers, was Fushed. Spear and sword was the fate of the captives. Then, gathering his fierce soldiery, he marched to meet the Egyptian expedition commanded by the English gen- eral, Hicks. All the world knows the mis- erable issue. The Egyptians hardly made a show. of resistance. Falling before the bloo hirsty Baggara horsemen, they plead- ed their lives. The shovel-headed spear gave sure answer. Scarcely ten among the thousands escaped to carry the tidings to Khartoum. This was the result—Darfur fell; Slation Ben surrendered, and after the terrible butchering of Biryet, where the Mahdi's men marched through the cowering Egypt- lan soldiers like a butcher in the sham- bles, the Mahdi was looked upon as divine. Water from his footbath was sold as a sure antidote against all disease. Thus two years passed with the Soudan given over to slaughter and rapine. Noth- ing living flourished save the sleek buz- zards. Then the Mahdi hurled his hordes on Khartoum. English Gordon command- ed a handful of starving soldiers there. Gen. George Gordon was left by a careless goyernment in the fated city with naught but the terror of his name to bar the Mahdi's way. In this extremity Gordon offered to recognize the..Mahdi'’s right to rule all the Western Soudan. The offer was spurned; 200,000 fanatical warriors sur- rounded Khartoum and swarmed over the walls. Grim butchery followed, and Gor- don, fighting to the last on the palace stairs, gave his life. tordon’s death is thus described by an eve-witness: “Khartoum was taken. The Arabs made for the palace. As they rushed up the stairs, Gordon came forward and tried to speak. They would not parley. The first Arab stuck out his spear. Gordon shot him dead. Two more warriors fell to his pistol before the spear pierced his breast.” Gordon's head was cut off and taken to Slatin Pasha, the Christian Governor of Dorfor, who was one of the few captives spared. | Once in possession of Khartoum, the Mahdi began to lead a life of ease. He grew fat and lazy. War and the ascetic life he had led were forgotten. Female slaves and the amusements of the harem took the place of battle. Moving his army some ten miles from Khartoum, he began the erection of a new capital across the Nile. Omdurman, the new city, was created in a few weeks. It was of vast extent, but the buildings were mere huts made of straw and Nile mud. The horsemen were the aristocracy of the new capital. Nearly all the other subjects of the Mahdi were slaves. In 18% the Mahdi died. -He named the Sheik Abdullahi Mohammed as his succes- sor. Abdullahi ascended the throne with the title of Khalifa. The new ruler was 57 years old. He was a sort of a mounte- bank before the Mahdi raised him to power, He was an Arab of the Jasisha tribe. — Slatin Pasha describes him as “having a sympathetic Arab face, in which marks of 'GEN.LORD HERBERT KITCHNER — ots z.@%e slightly bald, with a fringe of spare beard on his chin. In body neither thin nor stout, yet of commanding presence. A cruel, smil- ing mouth showed his character. Under the Khalifa’s rule the Soudan was nearly depopulated. Tribe after tribe were put to the sword. In a thousand villages between Omdurman and Atbara nothing was seen but the bones of the unfortunate villagers. In the raids the young women were spared and went to Omdurman to the harems of the warriors. The men who were spared were sent to Omdurman. In this manner the population of the capital was filed with fugitives who lived miserably. The erection of a tomb to the Mahdi was one of the first acts of the Khalifa’s reign. This monument was a square building, 90 feet square, with walls six feet thick, made with stones from Gordon’s palace in Khar- toum. From the center rose a dome 40 feet high, which made a fair mark for Kitch- ener’s shells later on. Beneath the dome stood the coffin of the Mahdi, inclosed in a wooden sarcophagus. Sir Herbert Kitchener, who in 189% was the leader of the Anglo-Egyptian Army, is 48 years old. When he entered the army he joined the Engineers. His cold, me- chanical mind saw that the only way Xo crush the Mahdi was by a carefully planned, scientific campaign. . He served 14 years in the Egyptian Army before he was put in command. As Sirdar, or commander in Chief of the Anglo-Egyptian forces he raised the standard of the army to a point that insured the victory of Omdurman. For the conquest of the Soudan he was raised to the peerage and created Lord Kitchener of Khartoum. The British began the work of reconquer- ing the Soudan in 189%. A force under Gen. Kitchener was sent to Wada Halfa on the Nile, 450 miles from Omdurman. There he organized a splendid army, officered by young British subalterns. He depended more on the excellence of his equipment than the size of the force. Eight thousand men were massed at Wada Halfa and the advance on Omdurman began. Then the Soudan machine was created. Kitchener determined to build a railroad to keep pace with his army through the desert. The starting point of this road was at Wady Halfa, where a narrow gauge line connected with Cairo. Men picked from the army made the road. Practically all the force was engaged in the work. And the progress of the road kept pace with the army. Some days bur four miles were laid, at other times the mature of the ground permitted faster work. The result of this road building was manifold. The army was toughened, the commissary was supplied from Caira. The sick were sent back to the hospitals. Re-enforcements were sent forward. Thus Kitchener had a highly efficient army always at hand and an unfailing base of supplies. By Septem- ber Kitchener's army and railroad had reached Dongola, an important city 150 miles from Omdurman. Before Dongola Wad BE! Bishara, the Emir of the province, gave battle. But to fight the Soudan machine was a different > MAHMUD. proposition than the Malf-trained army of Hicks and Gordon. Bare courage can't match machine guns. The Baggra Der- vishes fought to the death. They were all killed and Dongola captured. And “The Soudan “Machine,’’ as Kitchener’s army was called, rested in the city and gathered strengtb for the advance. The advance began in 18697 with an un- broken record of success. When the Der- vishes attacked the laborers on the rail- road laid aside tH@ir picks, took up their rifles and seattered the Mahdi’s men. /f N : SS yj) | SS fA NSS yo River. There the Soudan machinery was fully tested. The great Emir Mahmoud, with 60,000 Dervishes, attacked the camp be- fore daybreak. The Egyptian troops on the outposts stood firm. Slowly they led the Arabs back to the main camp, arranged in a square, defended by machine guns. The Baggra horsemen charged the Maxims until a ring of their bodies barred their way. But the Soudan machine was proof against maked valor. One of the Mahdi’s greatest generals was known as Mahmud Mohammed. He sur- vived the campaigns with that leader and was in the KhaNfa’s army. He was cap- tured after the battle of Atabara. Soldiers found him in a hole under his bed and rooted him out with bayonets. He was described then as being about 28 years old; proud as a king; intelligent be- yond his race,*and reserved as an Arab. When he was taken before the Sidar he ignored him and answered questions—when he spoke at all—contemptuously.

After Atbara, Kitchener began the slow advance to meet the Khalifa. His rallway ended at Atbara, which is 18 miles from Omdurman. | Provisions and artillery were transported by camel trains. By the Ist of September the army was in sight of the Mahdi’s capital. The lancers got within a mile of Omdurman. Between the city and the approaching army the Khalifa’s Dervish army made a brave show. When the lancers' were within 200 yards and a quarter of a mile in advance of the main army, the Arabs attacked. The Lancers fell back after a brilllant charge and the whole Dervish host rushed on Kitchener’s army. They could not plerce the lines.

Special Correspondence Sunday Post-Dispatch. EORGE WHITTEN, a New York (5 choir boy, not yet 15 years old, the stepson of Gilbert Gaul, America’s most famous painter of battle scenes, is fighting the Boers in South Africa as @ member of the Natal Mounted Police. Mrs, Gaul is in deep sorrow at the thought of her adventurous son spurring his horse in the face of a Boer fusillade. The pictures ‘conjured up by her imagination have a background of real local color, for she ‘spent part of her girlhood in Natal and | witnessed some of the horrors of the Zulu | war. Mrs. Gaul is the daughter of Vice-Ad- miral Halsted of the English Navy, a sailor of the old school. George was born in England, and to walk unaided was his proudest accomplishment when his father, the Rev. Walter Whitten, die&@ Left with the slenderest resources, Mra, Whitten set her face toward the New World. She found friends in religious quarters, and es- pecially among an Episcopal community known as the Brothers of Nazareth. Brother Gilbert. took a great liking to George and persuaded the widow to allow the mission to look after the little fellow’s education. It was a singular preparation for a life or adventure. Here George was brought up among selibate devotees, and his mind acquired a deeply religious cast. George was fully resolved to follow in the footsteps of his father, and beyond—for it was his ambition to be a bishop. He prat- tled of this to his mother, and she play- fully dubbed him “Bishop Georgie.” Brother Gilbert conceived the idea of founding in the country a home for boys, and so the Brotherhood established its school in Verbank, Dutchess County, of which “Bishop Georgie’ was the first pupil. Later on he returned to his mother’s care; but he remained in close touch with the church, and being gifted with an alto voice as clear as a bell became a chorister at Grace Church. In all this it is not easy to detect a single influence at work for such an apparent transformation as appeared in the boy when he reached the age of 12. His mother’s ex- planation is that the good brothers stamped upon his mind the feeling that it was his duty to begin early a manful fight for her, and never for one day to be a burden upon her. At ail events, this precocious boy sud- denly abandoned home and the cholr to strike out for the West. His mother tried to keep him with her. but she encountered a quiet resolution, which she recognized as a repetition of her own spirit. So “Bishop Georgie’ traveled to Missour!, bound to a farmer, who was to give him experience in return for his services. Thai was a little more than three years ago. Life on the ranch was anything but what it had been painted. Instead of riding after cattle he was employed as a drudge and half starved in the bargain. He would never make a home for his mother at this rate, he reflected. e And he planned to run away and return to New York. Before starting on his journey he wrote a reassuring letter to his mother, represent- ing himself as happy on the ranch, and took it with him to post at a further stage of his enterprise. He was baunted by an exaggerzted idea of his lawlessness in leaving the ranch. He had broken his contract, and to his imagin- ation the continent swarmed with detectives in chase of a runawey boy. This terror jn- creased his difficulties by impelling him to FIFTEEN-YEAR-OLD BOY WHO RAN AWAY FROM MISSOURI "JOINS THE BRITISH POLICE.

In less than three weeks he had reached western New York. After considerable difficulty he managed to communicate with his mother and she sent him $10. He was ‘supremely happy when he boarded the first train for home. In New York there was nothing for him that he could see—nothing but years and years of humdrum work on a few beggarly dollars a week. He felt it in him to achieve something where there was elbow room. An opportunity arose to go to Florida, this time to taste real ranch life, and he went. The outbreak of the Spanish-American war unsettled “Bishop Georgie’ a second time. He was a first-rate horseman, he had grown prodigiously and the taste for adventure had become a passion. He tried to enlist, bet was rejected on account of his age. No longer did he have for inspiration the desire to make a home for his mother, for she, looking younger and more attractive than ever, had the happiest of homes of her own and had changed her name. It was then that @eorge Whitten first met Gilbert Gaul. They took a great HMking to each other. In the artist's studio the boy found all manner of martial trappings to inflame his spirit. There were uniforms of every na- tion and swords of every shaps. George dressed himself in the uniforms, bran- dished the swords, and declared more souvt- ly than ever that fighting should be his trade. At that time Gilbert Gaul was painting his stirring picture, “In the Turret.” It showed the interior of a turret on an American warship in action. Strong light shone-through the gun port at the upper left side and through a hole toward the rig, where a shot from the enemy had crashed through the steel.

Amid the light the king of the Black Serpents will make his appear- ance. But it is Mr. Dean, the director of the circus, who appears first. He bows and humbly begs the honorable ladies and gen- tlemen to remain calm, not to applaud and to preserve an absolute silence, for the king is in a very bad humor and more savage than usual, The manager's words produce rather a disagreeable effect upon the audience, Strange that the same men who 15 years before had slaughtered with so supreme an air of mastership the inhabitants of Shia- watta should now feel disturbed. Only a minute ago, while the beautiful Lina was engaged in her entertaining performance, they were well satisfied to be so near the ring and to see everything so plainly. But now they look anxiously toward the high, amhed roof of the tent and begin to find it difficult to breathe below, where they sit. But. after all, does this king remember anything? Was he not brought up almost from infancy in Mr. Dean's troupe, made up exclusively of Germans? Could he re- member? No, it is impossible, incredible! Companionship, 15 years of circus life, gifts, applause must without doubt have softened his savage nature. “Shiawatta! Shiawatta!” Yes, they are Germans and they dwell far away from their native country in a land that does not belong to them. But—well, their business does not permit them to think very much about that far-away country any longer; and. above all, it is necessary to eat and to live. Surely any one could understand that—a common citizen or the last survivor of the Black Serpents! In the midst of these reflections a sharp. savage cry is heard ifn the stables, “and straightway the king,, who has been awaitéd with so great discomfort, appears.- The audience murmurs in awed tones: “it is he!

Not only did he sing the ballads of Old, but, like a true Celtic minstrel, he im- Provised rhymes and cleverly brought the Songs of tire @oll up to date. This accomplishment challenged the at- tention of the earl, a jolly old bachelor, and when there was company at the castle Hen- is he has man of long standing, ‘derson would be summoned from the vil- lage to sing to the guests. One night, after an especially good song, following an especially good dinner, his lordship slapped his thigh and declared that the singer and hie descendants for three generations should enjoy without rent the ‘use of a generous slice of land on the main — eSre. Henderson, with a shrewd eye for profit, built six cottages on the land, and the rents from five of them made-him a man of dis- tinguished consideration in the village. It Was in the sixth cottage that the new Speaker first saw the light. The earl dropped dead one night after dining heartily, and the title and estates passed to his brother. Henderson had never thought of procur- ing from his patron any written title to the land, and when the new earl called and asked to see the papers by virtue of which he held possession, the ballad singer ad- mitted that he hadn't a particle of writ- ing to show. “Then,’’ said the earl, away inside of two days. It was then that the tuneful Scot arose in his wrath and booted his lordship from the premises, His wife, greatly alarmed, that night sought out the enraged nobleman and beg- ged forgiveness for her husband, engag- ing that there should be no dispute about the property. “you must move The eayl relented, and two days later the entire family sailed for America.

On Sunday he studied the Presbyterian catechism and learned to chant in the big voice he had inherited from his father, “Hark, from the tombs a doleful sound!’ He had inherited also his father’s gaunt Gaelic frame, and in the absertce of ear:s to practise on he tusseled with his big brothers and with the neighbors’ boys un- til he became the champion wrestler of that region. When he was sixteen a wrestler of some note from further afield visited Hender- son's Prairie—for suo the place was called —and asked to try a fall or two with the youngster. He had the advantage in height and weight, but David's triumph was complete. The discomfited challenger craved per- mission to try once more with the “right- hand-under hold,’ and, although this meant a severe handicap for David, the lad accepted his terms. A violent struggle ended in the stranger getting the “trip lock,’’ so the young Scot went headlong to earth, breaking his arm and dislocating his wrist. Thanks to surgical bungling, do no farming for a long time. His prudent father argued that a youth who could not use his hands ought at least to be taught to use his brains, so David was sent to college. By the time he entered the Upper lowa University his injuries had healed suffi- ciently to enable him to give vigorous fore- David could cast of a temper well fitted for the Speak- erghip,. It happened this way: Henderson's skill as a debater was marked that when he had been in school only a few weeks he was selected to lead his side in a rhetorical dispute. When he began tuo speak he was interrupted by a frivolous senior. Henderson paused and gliared a moment, but resumed his argu- ment. Again the frivolous senior chimed in, and this time interruption was clearly of- fensive. SO the “if you can- I will!’’ “Mr. Chairmar,” said David, not preserve order in this room, And a moment later the frivolous senior Was given a fine Imitation of the Earl of Buchan being kicked out of doors. Much as he aprpeciated the advantage of university training, young Henderson was disturbed in mind when the civil war broke vut, and communicated his misgvngs to hs riimate friends, who were fired by his pa- triotic zeul. Sept. 15, 1861, just after morn- ing prayers, he secured permission to ad- Gress the students on a serious theme. Strange as the request was, the faculty told him to go ahead. Then up rose David B. made his firet war speech. To this day his oratory ie of the hit-and- smash kind. There is nothing subtle about his periods and no word or thought which a schoolboy would not understand. He car- ries his audience with him bg sheer force of physical robustness and a richness of conviction and celor which makes no intel- lectual demands upon either hearer or speaker. He was 21 when he made his firet war speech, and he was tremendousiy in earn- est. His speech led up to a set of resolutions, which he read from a paper. The conciud- ing phrase Waa; Henderson and SAW HIS FATHER KICK ‘We therefore drop our books to fight our country’s battles!’ To this declaration were appended the names of 22 students; and David B. Hen- derson’s name ‘ed all the reat. These 22 had swelled to 13% when the future Speaker went to the front. S80 impressed were the battle chiefs that they offered him the rank of captain. But the young patriot was as modest as he was zealous. “I am not old enough to be captain,” he said, and contented himself with a lieuten- ant’s commission. His regiment, the Tvs 'fth lowa Infantry, joined Grant's command on the march to Forts Henry and Donelson. In the assault on the latter stronghold a musket ball tore a hole in his jaw, but he managed to keep on his feet till the end of the engage. ment. He had recovered sufficiently to be with his company at Shiloh, Then, in the second day's fight at Corinth, his leg was shot away. Henderson retired from enough to equip himself with a wooden leg, on which he again marched to the front. this time as colonel of the Forty- sixth lowa. Since the war he has had a great deal of trouble with his mutilated leg. For pe- riods of months at a time he has been almost disabled by suffering, and two or three operations have been necessary. After serving terms as Collector of In- ternal Revenue and Assistant United States District Attorney for the Northern District of lowa, he applied himself to the practice of law in Dubuque.

No fellow-Congressman rivaled him in ene thusiasm for the distribution of free seeds. His penalty was a constant fire of amiabie ridicule. As a campaign speaker he has been & rare aid to his party all over the country for the last #) yeare. He is not likely to atsume toward the House the attitude of an orphan asylum superintendent; but no one doubts that the son of the man that kicked out an earl will not be trifled with.

Nor, on the ether hand, can we go to the other extreme and attempt to teach them theory, generalization, which will make them pelieve from the cutset that they are wiser than their fathers. , Perhaps when they grow older they will be wiser than their fathers. We always thevretically hope so, though we dislike to see it tried. But if they first start into life with the idea that they are wiser than their fathers they are doomed to first-class disappointment. What we do mean in education is. first and foremost, to teach them the sense ol *preportion, to teach them which things are small and which things are large. ’ Modern business has expanded itself to such a degree and has grown S$) great that it is impossible to-day for a man to take at once the large leadership of the whole and the small oversight of the details. He must look to see which are the great things that he must do and which are the small things which he must leave to others. You know of the man, probably, who objected to the reputation for wisdom that Solomon-had. He said he did not think that Selomon was so wise a man, after all, and they asked him why, and he said that in the Book of Proverbs he kept slipping up, and they asked him where, and he said “Well, for instance, he made a terrible mistake in that verse ‘Take care of the pennies and the pounds will take care of themselves.’ ” We have got to train men who shal] see Which are the large things to attend to, to understand_organization, to understand division of labor in its broad sense, to understand the opportunities which lie before them, and to select those cpportunities for which they are fitted. Now, I can only indicate a few ways among many in which this can be done. In the first place, our men must learn to use their time, to di- vide their time. As business is done to-day, we do in five minutes what the past generations took five hours to perform. If a man attempts io make those five minutes, to repeat those five minutes all through the day, he will kill himself. He must have outside interests, both in work and in play. Not the least part of modern education is the education to lronorab:. enjoyment of things outside of work. Nor is it that alone that makes us allround men. The modern busi- ness man must learn to have enjoyment of the great things of literature and history. Now, all of you, I think, in the midst of your busy life work have felt the need of this and have accomplished something of it. But there is a tremendous advantage to the boy who in the years when his character is most plastic can come into contact with the great Jecds of other times recorded in past history and with the great ideals of ail ages recorded in poetry; can learn their spirit, can see that the present life is not all; and a college education, in the very things that seen) inust useless for money making, gives to the boy this power of zelting outside of th. present world, gives to the boy this proportion bv which his life work is not the whole for which he is striving, but a part of the larger whole, lasting for centuries past and through cen- iuries in the future; an idea which ennobles his business and ennobles him. And this is important in the present day more than it has ever been in the past, for as business becomes larger it takes more and more the character of a trust. The word.as it is applied to our large manufactur- ing combinations is but an accident, and yet in its application to the great production and distribution in the world to-day it has the pro- foundest of meanings. Buginess is a trust. It-is a thing which a man dees nci for himself,.but for others, He has in his hands the destinies of hundreds and of thousands and of hundreds of thousands of people. There is in the swaying of these lives an element of moral responsibility to which the commercial World\is slowly but surely awakerinz. The education which: shall fit.men for the business of the future must be one.in alhits lines*that shall’show the young men of the coun. try that.moral character, that essential responsibility that is connected “with the posséssidn and use of:.money.

THE POWERS OF MODERN MUNICIPAL CORPORATIONS. By Prof. Frank Goodnow of Columbia University TT powers which any city should exercise depend very largely upon local conditions. No general rule as to extent of municipal powers car be laid down. Thus cities which are situated on tide- water must exercise powers cifferent both in extent and char- acter from those possessed by cities situated inland. Further, inasmuch az we have no longer any instances of the city-State—so common in times of antiquity—inasinuch ag at the present time all cities are but parts of a larger political entity, the powers which any particular city possesses depend also very largely on the position which the city oc- cupies in the general scheme of government. The city thus may 92 regarded as merely part of a greater whole, to be governed, as ere all other parts of the greater whole, by the authori- ties of the State to which it is subject, or it may be regarded as having an individuality distinct from that of the State, with needs of its own, different from the generai needs of the State. The former was the po- sition assigned to the French city by the Napoleonic scheme of admin- istration. The latter is the position assigned to the modern Prussian city. Even where the Napoleonic idea' of the position of the city is heid it is of course true that the State authorities which govern the city - will be influenced in their treatment of the particular municipal prob- lems by local conditions; but in such a scheme the ultimate power of determining municipal relicy is vested, not in municipal, but in State authorities. Under the Prussian system, on the contrary, it is the local municipal authorities whe determine the local policy, |i. e., determine what concrete powers shail be exercised, apd who in their determina- tion are, much more than the State authorities ever could be, governed by local consideration, Thus, while ih both cases local cunditions are an important factor in the determination of municipal powers, the method adopted by the regulation of the relations of the city with the ceniral authorities of the State government—that is, the method of fixing the pusition which the city occupies in the general stheme of State government, ir a vastly more important, is, Indeed, the controlling factor in the problem. it becomes necessary, therefore, to ascertain what is the position of the city. In our endeavor to ¢nswer this question, we shal! receive as- sistance from considering ihe, matter a: first entirely from the point of ‘view of theory. The city with which we have to deal at the present time is a part of the State. The people residing. within it are, therefore, members of the State. As members of the State, they have interests which are common to all mcmbers of’ the State. Thus, as all other m-mbers of the State, they have an interest in the preservatio1 of peace and order. Again, they have an interest in uniform and proper administration of civil and criminal justice. If they have children they have an interest in the efficien. adiministraticn of the school system of the State. In order that all thes: matters of government be attended to it is necessary that there should be properly organized authorities. Two methods have been devised for their attention. By one, the State takes these matters absolutely in fts own hands and provides officers ap- pointed by the Governor or other central State authority. By the other, the city, ag one of the administrative divisions of the State, ‘s given large administrative powers. If this latter fs the case¢—and it is the case to a greater or less degree in all countries—the City is acting as the agent of the centrai State Government, for it ts administering to branches of government which Interest all the people pf the State. But this is not all the work of the city. For just soon as you have a large number of people in a small district—just so soon, in other words, as you have the physical basis of a city, new Interests begin to develop which are of @ purely local character, which do not interest all the people of the State..

This view of the city’s position is, however, an incorrect one, and if followed, it is believed, will lead to disastrous results. ‘There can be no question that in so far as the city is an agent of State govern- ment-—and it is so everywhere—it cannot be regarded ag ‘ any of the characteristics of a business corporation. Nor, in 96 fae as the city is an organization for the satisfaction of local needa, can it be regarded as a business corporation. It is, of course, true’ most of these purely local functions are in a rural community ate tended to by individual effort. But the conclusion does not follow that _ when these matters become the objects of municipal activity they still retain their individual ard non-governmental character. ~ : Not only has the American system of controlling municipalities in” the interest of State uniformity had the result of reducing the municl- pality to the position of a mere agent ‘of _ State government, local policy is determined by the legislative body of the State; ft has % c= also been proved that the legislative control is an extremely inefficient — one. This is brought out very clearly when we come to question of municipal indebtedmess. In all countries the attempt. has been .made by the central government to provide some limit to mu- nicipa! indebtedness, which the municipalities should not overstep, | In this country,.in accordance with our general system of government, — this limit is fixed by the Legislature. It is so fixed as a result of the adoption of the principle that a municipality has no power to borvew money without legislative authorization. But the Legislatures have been so prodigal in their grants tq the municipalities of the power to ~ borrew money that ‘the people haye hadto take the matter in hand, “e and have had to fix in their constitutions Itmits beyond which the legis!ative authorization could have no effect. As a general thing at the present time, the constitution of the States provides that no municipal. ity shall incur a debt beyond a fixed per cent of its assessed valeaden for purposes of taxation.

GEORGE ADE EXPLAINS EORGE ADE, the creator of “Artie’’ and author of “Fables in Slang,” just issued in book form, has come upon a new piece of slang, of which he gives the following explanation: “T encountered a new piece of slang about two months ago, and it has puzzied me. I first heard it from a big newsboy who had a ‘stand’ on a corner. A small poy with several papers under his arm had edged up until he was trespassing on the territory of the other. When the big boy saw the small one he went at him in a threatening way and said: ‘Here, here! Twenty-three! Twenty-three!’ The small boy scowled and talked under his breath, but he moved away. A few days after that I saw a street beggar approach a well- dressed man, who might have been a book- it may be seen that she is scarcely out of her teens yet. Miss Rockwell's family is well known in this city, doctor. eae eee eee a where her mother an engagement maker or a houseman, and try for the us- ual ‘touch.’ The man looked at the beg- gar in cold disgust and sald: ‘Aw, twenty- three!’ I could see that the beggar didn’t understand it any better than I did. I hap- pened to meet a man who tries to ‘keep up’ on slang and I asked the meaning of ‘Twenty-three!’ He said it was a signal to clear out, run, get away. In his opinion it came from the English race tracks, 23 being the limit on the number of horses allowed to start in one race. This was his explanation. I don’t know that @ is the limit. But his theory was that ‘twenty- three’ meant that there was no longer any reason for waiting at the post. It was & signal to run, a synonym for the Bowery boy’s ‘On your way!” Another student of slang said the expression originated in New RISTIC POSES. “TWENTY-THREE,” A NEW SLANG PHRASE, Orleans at the time an attempt was to rescue a Mexican embezzsier who been arrested there and was to be tak back to his own country.

The dust, which ie as fine \# “hide,” is pe tensely irritating to the respiratory pas- — sages and eyes of the cutters, and al some — of the factories it is: drawn Into a tube by a current of air. The cutters in smaller works often cover the mouth nose with a cloth. The life of a worker in a pearl factory is hard and short. The saws are made of flat steél stripe about two inches wide and of various lengths, corresponding to the sizes of the buttons. These strips, aftér being provided with fine teeth along one of the sides, are bent accurately into a cylindrical form and — fitted into heavy iron holders; the latter are adjusted to a lathe In which they ree volve on a horizontal axis.

In fresh- ets, when the streams find new channels, many mussels are carried from their beds and left dry when the water subsides. Droughts also are liablé to expose mussel beds and -cause much destruction, Pollut'on of the water by refuse from cities and manufacturing establishments is the most serious menace to the mussel beds next to the operations of the fisher- men. Sewage is destructive and capable of killing practically every mussel] w-th which it comes in contact, Throughout this stretch of river, wher- ever fishing has been at all regular or active, there has been more or less marked reduction in the abundance of mussels of all kinds utilized in making buttons, and in some localities the depletion of the grounds ‘has been a:imost complete. The manufacturers generally recognize the present tendency toward the practica} ex- haustion of the available grounds, and feel the need of some action that will place the industry on a permanent basis. The fishermen also, however loath they may be to acknowledge it, have practical evi- dence that the mussel grounds are capable of depletion and are being greatly reduced in productiveness. The many persons finan- cially ‘nterested in the. mussel fishery and the button industry are desirous that ap- propriate measures be taken to insure the existence of a substantial business of this kind, Suspension of the industry along this part of the river would be a real calamity to many entire communities. The rake hauled by hand and by ma- chine and the steam dredge are the appli- ances used most commonly in this fishery. The rakes are of several patterns, the commonest being the shoulder rake, which has a wooden fhandle from 14 to 20 feet long, and which is used from an anchored boat. The handle ‘s rested over the fish- eitnan’s shoulder, and the rake is pushed into the water, pointing up stream, and sunk to the full length of the pole. Then it is slowly drawn toward the boat, the fisherman being aided in this by the ac- tion of the current on a broad piece of wood na-led crosswise near the base of the handle. The dredge used with a windiass is Known as the “drag rake.’ It looks Ike a fiat cage, with long teeth projecting from the bottom, A large steam scow for taking mussels, ownea at Muscatine, is unique. It is pro- vided with a huge rake or dredge operated by steam. The rake is made of iron and weighs 300 ponds. It is 48 inches long, 18 inches wide and 30 inches deep, and is pro- vided with 25 &-inch teeth. The rake is overated in a recess or siot in the bot- tom of one side of the scow. This recess is 5 feet wide and 40 feet long, and is sur- mounted by a frame work with a double track, on which the heavy timbers support- ing the rake slide while the rake is being dragged along’ the bottom. A perpedicular beam.is attached to the rake, by means of which itis taised and lowered’ and dragged from the forward end of the recess. The length of this beam is such that the rake may be used in water’as deep as 22 feet. This vessel carries a crew of four men and cost several thousand dollars. In the spring of 1897 ingenious con- trivances for taking mussels came into use and is now the leading means of capture. It consists of a circular rod 6 feet long,. of* %-inch fron, to which are attached at in- tervals of about 6 inches, series of four- pronged hooks, made of stout (No. 9) wire. These hooks are made of two pieces of wire so fastened together that the prongs will be at right angles to each other. The hooks are 4 inches long and are fastened to the iron bar in strings containing two or three hooks, which are attached to each other and to the bar by twine, piiable wire or chains, so they will be freely movable. A strong plece of rope is tied at or near each end of the bar, forming a bridle, to which is fastened the ball, or the rope by which the dredge is pulled. This rope is about 25 feet long. The quantity of hooks varies with the length of the bar and the number in each string. A 6-foot bar, with three hooks on each string, the strings being 6 inches apart, would have 39 hooks. A 7'%4-foot bar, with only two hooks’ on a string and the strings 4 or 5 inches apart, would con- tain 46 hooks. In allusion to the shape of the hooks, this apparatus is known locally as the “crowfoot’’ dredge or rake. At the factory the shells are stored in covered sheds, the different kinds usually being kept In separate bins. Preparatory to being used, the shells are sorted into sizes by boys. Usually three sizes of ‘‘niegerheads’’ are recognized. The sorted shelss are soaked in barrels of fresh water for three to six days to make them less brittle. Even when only a few hours out of the river the shells become dry and brittle. It is necessary that they be used while wet, otherwise they crumble or split under the saw. The next.step is the cutting or sawing of the rough blanks. Each cutter has a pile of selected shells at hand, and, in the large factories, is kept supplied by boys. Nigger- head shells are held usually with special pliers whiie being cut. These grasp the circumference of the shell and enable cut- ters to retain it fast whileholding the shell at right angles to the saw. Some sawers have the hand gloved or mittened and use no pliers or pincers. At the more extensive plants a fine jet @f water plays on the shell as the saw revolves to prevent the forma- ; tion of dust and to keep the shell. cock are cut they pass back Into the saw and holder and drop into a box —— the saw.

' Nothing else but the law ever had any charwe to enter into my life. I de not believe that any person should undertake anything that is in any degree distasteful to him. If he would succeed, he must be in love with bis work. Enthusiasm is the only preventive of discouragement, and one cannot have that if one’s heart and soul are no: in his work. The young man in choosing his profession or trade shouid sit Gown and ask. himself two questions— what he has a talent for and in what di- rection his taste runs. If the two coirvide there is Httle doubt about his career. I: will be successful and he will err if he does not act in accordarmve with the coincidence. If the coincidence does not follow, he should take what suggesis itself as best in view of all the a:tending circumstances. If the young lawyer has taste and talent he will succeed by industry and persever- ance. He should not mind a few rebuffs. He should expect them, and at the same time remember that they are the making of him. They are the experience that pol- ishes him and equips him for the higher du. ties of his profession. But what I have named are not the only essentials. There is one more—honesty. The young lawyer, who doesn’t expect to follow strictly the rules that he shall neither steal nor deceive, would better do something else. For soon- er or later the world will find him oa: and he witl be ostracised.

He may have a taste for a profession or calling, or think he has, when he is tacking in the phys‘tcal or men- tal qualifications. I think here a very important responsibility devolves upon parents in determining for what cal! ings in life their rons are fitted. More than ever before the world now calis for special training, and we wou.d have fewer misfits and fallures in life if this re- sponsibility was more generally recognize. At the same time it is very important thar a man should not go into any profession or calling where he cannot enjoy his work; bur as a rule he will enjoy that for which he Is fitted.

A commercial law- yer in this age must be a good business man, for lawyers are essentially business agents. They advise men in their business difficuities. A boy is not necessarily fitte1 to be a lawyer because he has a taste for public speaking. Neither judges nor juries now care much for rhetoric. PREDERICK N. JUDSON. BY H. M. FOLLARD. MADE up my mind two enter the iegal | profession because nothing else seemed open to me. After graduating at Dart- thouth College, I began teaching schooi. At that time I had no clearly defind pur- pose. I was just drifting with the worid with a faint hope that I would land some- where. The tasks of « pedagogue became distasteful to me and I saw that, if ! wished to succeed in life, I must do some- thing else. I had no capital and it was necessary for me to undertake some work that did not require it. The law was the only thing that seemed to meet the con- ditions under which'I was laboring and 1 selected it. In choosing a profersion or trade, it is well if one can suit one’s taste, but that should not always be taken as the final arbiter, One may have a taste r the law and not have the talent. On thé other hand, one may have a positive distaste for the work of the profession and yet dis- tinguish himself at it.

Con- venience is frequently a good guide and other considerations of equal importance may enter Into a manw life. The safest course for a young man to pursue in map- ping out his career, is to take the way that, in the light of surrounding circum- stnaces, seems best. Sometimes, that wil! fail but rot often. The lawyer of the future cannot hope to succeed without a good clasg¢ical education. That is the first es¢ential. He must aiso have inexhaustible talent for work. He must take hold of his work with the de- termination to be a constant slave to the lamp of knowledge, for as long as he re- mains in active practice, he must expect to keep his brain continually employed. He must also be honest. If a young man undertakes the law without this qualifica- tion, he will find that he has made a grave mistake. Clients, with large fees, are not going to intrust responsible cases with ir- responsible young men. They will make inquiry about their character and will soon learn if there ere any streaks of dis- honesty. So I would say that the essen- tial qualities of the lawyer are energy. 4 good educetion, industry and honesty. With them, any man, whatever may ‘be is tastes, should succeed, The lega}) profession is just as inviting to the young men as. it ever was.

FOWL. HE se2ret in having a‘ good roast fowl 7 is to baste it often, and to cook it long enough. A small turkey of sev- en or eight pounds (the best selection if fat) should be roasted or baked three hours at least. A very large turkey should not be cooked a minute less than. four hours; an extra hour is. preferable to-a minute less. If properly basted they will not be- come dry. With much experience in hotel life, where turkeys are ruined by the wholesale, L have never seen a piece of turkey that was fit to eat. Besides being ‘tasteless, they are almost invariably undercooked. First, then, after the turkey is dressed, season it well, sprinkling pepper and salt on the inside; stuff it, and tie it well in shape; either lard the top or lay slices of bacon over it; wet the skin and sprinkle it well with pepper, salt and*flour. It is well to allow a turkey to remain some time stuffed _ before cooking. Pour a little’ boiling water into the bottom of the dripping pan. If it is to be roasted do not put it too near the coals at first. until it gets well heated through; then gradually draw it nearer. The excellence of the turkey depends much upon the frequency of basting it; occasion- ally baste it with a little butter, oftener with its own drippings. Just before tak- ing it from the fire or out of the oven, put on more melted butter, and sprinkle over mére flour; this will make the skin more crisp and brown. NEW. ENGLAND STUFFING.—For the craw take the heart and liver of the turkey, a slice of fat salt pork, two slices of stale bread, one-half cup chopped pars- ley, one even teaspoonful black pepper, one teaspoonful summer savory; chop very fine and it is ready to place in the turkey. For the bird itself teke one pint stale bread crumbs, one saltspoon pepper (black), one teaspoonful salt, one: teaspoonful summer savory, two tablespoonfuls butter, one cup chopped parsley; moisten with one-half cup new milk or water. Leave some room for the stuffing to swell, as it is much lighter and more digestible than when packed in tight. SW EET POTATO. STUFFING.—With a quart of sifted sweet potato mix a cupful, of bréad crumbs, a beaten egg, quarter of a cupful of butter and a teaspoonful and a quarter of salt, a teaspoonful of poultry seasoning and a little paprika. Salt and pepper well the inside of the turkey and add ‘ stuffing. Truess, butter and add a few slices of salt pork and roast. Garnish with sprigs of celery and sausage cakes. ROAST TURKEY.—Stuff and clean a tur- key, make a well-seasoned dressing, cover it with thin layers of fat bacon; then roast it, and when done dish it up, garnish with small pork sausages nicely fried; and cel- ery and serve with chestnut sauce. Garnish of chestnuts for the turkey: Split the husks of .§O chestnuts, put them in a stewpan witha little butter and fry them on a slow fire until the husks easily peel off. Clean them and place in a stewpan with two lumps of sugar, a pinch of salt, a teaspoon. ful of butter, a half cup of good consomme., Set them to boil, then place them by the side of the fire, boiling gently until they are nearly done. Boil them to a glaze, toss- ing to keep covered, and serve. TURKEY OR CHICKEN STUFFED WITH CHESTNUTS.—Bake three dozen chestnuts in the oven. As the skin begins to crack take them out, skin and chop fine. Put in the frying pan with half an onion, cut fine, and some butter, and fry to a nice brown.

TIQUETTE in the serving of wines de- mands an adherence to certain forms of glassware, cut glass, of course, being the correct thing. The glasses : are intended for the serving, respectively of: 1, any wine; 2, cocktail; 3, claret; 4, any wine; 5, sherry; 6, champagne, or cordial; 7, hock; 8, port. Few dinners are considered complete , It imparts a relish, and is regarded by many an aid to digestion. The art in using it, if such it may be called, is, first, to obsérve sim- plicity in the selection, and then to serve it with nicety. In. those countries where the sparkling fluid is used as a. common beverage, where Bohemianism is cultivated _in ail its delightful phases, its mission has ' been to lengthen the dining hour and. ren- der it a time of pleasure, instead of a duty, as observed in this country. .’ At a dinner party of any sort taste en- ters largely into the selection of wines. Seasons and kinds of food should receive due attention, aleo the fact that too many wines are apt to confuse the palate. When attending a public dinner one frequently finds sherry, sauterne or Rhine wine and champagne. The sherry is served with the soup or fish, the second wine with the fol- lowing courses, and the champagne last. Separate glasses, of course, are laid for each, but are allowed to remain through- out the dinner. At a small, informal dinner the host ar- ranges things as fancy may dictate. There are a few points, however, with which he should be thoroughly familiar. He knows that he should have good wine, if any, and ‘when more than one kind, a separate glass for each. Two things he must guard against are calculation and ostentation. Either will have.a tendency to mar:the dinner. There is such a thing as giving a most delightful affair at moderate expense. In this the selection of wine needs consideration. There is something refreshing about good table beer, and, together with a like quality of ale, constitute what; in the minds of many people, is a luxury, besides being very wholesome. Cider, lemonade and punch are also aceeptable. ; In serving wine the water never touches the glasses. He starts at the host, tipping his or her glass, and going to the right, fills each glass. It used to be the proper thing to see to the ladies first, but the cus- tom was dropped several years ago. MILK PUNCH.—One quart milk, two glasses best sherry, four tablespoonfuls powdered sugar, four eggs, yolks only, and well beaten. Cinnamon and nutmeg to taste. Bring milk to boiling point.

__ SUNDAY ‘MORNING-ST. LOUIS POST-DISPATCH—DECEMBER 3, 1 _ —_ — ——oeooor sd Henry ti Fincke Writes a Wonderfully Com- prehensive Definition of Love, After Study- ing the Passion for Years in Its Lowest and Highest Forms. MPO OL OOD OL oT OKioicietioktert WHAT LOVE IS. : S OVE is an intense longing for 5 the reciprocal affection and Ps jealously exclusive possession * of a particular ‘ydividual of the op- posite sex; a chaste. proud, ecstatic adoration of one who appears a par- agon of personal beauty and other- wise immeasurably superior other persons; constantly ; and hope, ‘3 to all an emotional state hovering between doubt aggravated in the female heart by the fear of revealing her feelings too soon; a_ self-forgetful impulse to share the tastes and feel- ings of the beloved, and to go so far in affectionate and gallant devotion as to eagerly secrifice, for the other's good, a comfort and life itself if necessary. OOOO COO Ot LPO OO OD ENRY T. FINCKE, in‘ Primitive Love LH and Love Stories,’ a scholarly vol- ume, just issued by the Scribner press, has laid bare to the Very nerves the psychology of love. He has examined the Brand passion with microscopic care es he found it among the lowest races of savages, ond has traced its developments up to Romantic Love, the most potent factor for good in modern civilization. His examina- tioris have led him into the field of an- thropology and phystology, and he has written a definition of love which is a masterpiece of comprehensiveness. F'ollow- ing are the eharacteristics, aims, desires, motives and accomplishments of Romantic Love, as set forth in Mr. Fincke’s volume. By Henry T. Fincke. REMEMBER how, when I was 6 or 7 | years old, IT once ran out of the school- house during recess to pick up some Misscuri halilstones, while others large as marbles were falling about me, threatening to smash my skull. I xzave the trophies to a dark-eyved girl of my agre—not with a view to any possible reward, but simply because I loved her more than all the other girls ccnbined and wanted tc please her. Tt is not difficult to explain why among _the lower races individual preference either does not occur at all or is so weak and utilitarian that the difference of a few cows, more or less, may deciae a lover's fate. Like sunflowers in the same garden the girls in a tribe differ so little from one ancther that there is no particular call for discrimination. They are all breught up in exactly the same way, eat the same focd, do the same work, think the same thoughts. As civilization progresses the sexes be- come -more and more differentiated, thus affordigig individual preference and irfinite- ly ered te scope. The mind, too, has sex, ‘as wellias the body. ‘*t is still in process of evolution and too many individuals _ still approximate the type of the virago or. the effeminate man; but the time will come for all, as it Has already come for many, when a masculine trait in a woman’s character will make as disagreeable an impression as a-blacksmith’s sinewy arm on the body of @ society girl would make in a ballroom. Men and women fall in love with what is unlike, not with what is like them. While the savage has only one kind of ffowers to choose between—all of one color, too—the civilized white man has a large’ variety from which to make a selection. A civilized lover would mourn the loss of his bride be- cause it would be absolutely impossible to duplicate ner. Here lies the explanation of one of the mysteries of .modern love—its stubborn fidelity to the beloved after the choice has been made. Romantic love exacts complete monopoly of its devotees. Romantic love is a monop- olist absolutely exclusive of all participa- ‘tion and rivalry. A genuine Romeo wants Juliet, the whole of Juliet and nothing but ‘Jutiet. She monopolizes his thoughts by day, his dreams at night; her image blends with everything he sees, her voice with everything he hears. His imagination is a lens which gathers together all the light and heat of a giant world and focuses them on one brunette or blonde. He is a miser who begrudges every smile, every look she bestows on Ophers. A modern lover would loathe the savage idea of temporary marriages, because he feels sure that his love will be eternal and unalterabie; he may be mistaken, but that at any rate is his ideal. It includes lasting monopolism. Genuine love cannot exist without respect for the ‘beloved, whatever may be said to.the contrary by those who know not the difference between sensual] and sentimental love. Women as well as men—primitiv Oriental—were either e, ancient, strangers to jealousy of any kind, or else knew it only as a species of anger, hatred, cruelty and selfish sensuality; never as an ingredient of love. The fear, distress, humiliation, anguish of modern jealousy are in the mind of the modern husband. He suffers torments, but has no wish to torment either of the guilty ones. There are, indecd, in civilized coun- tries ‘husbands who siay erring wives, buf they are not civilized husbands. Civilized husbands resort to separation, not to mur- der, and in dismissing the guilty wife they punish themselves more than her, for she nas shown bv her actions that she does not love him, amd therefore cannot feel the deepest pang at the separation. ‘I'here is no anger, no desire for revenge. Concors comes into the world through love; hatred is far from jealousy, through the fact that a man or a woman who truly loves cannot tolerate even the thought of punishing one who has held first place in his or her af- fection. The jealousy of romantic love pre- ceding marriage differs from the jealousy of conjugal love in so far as there can be no claim to a monopoly of affection where the very existence of any recipro- cated affection still remains in doubt. Be- fore the engagement the uncertain lover in the preserce of a rival is tortured by doubt, anxiety, fear, despair, and he may violently hate the other man, though not necessarily, feeling that the rival has as much claim to the girl's attention as he has. Duels between rival lovers are not enly silly, but are an insult to the girl to whom the choice ought to be submitted, and the verdict accepted manfully. A ffian who shoots the girl herself because she loves another and refuses him puts himself on a level below the lowest brute, and cannot plead either true love or true jeal- ousy as his excuse. When a man is in love he wears his heart on his sleeve and feels eager to have the beloved one see how passionately it throbs. for her. When a girl is in love she tries to conceal] her heart in the innermost recesses of her bosom, lest the lover dis- cover her feeling prematurely. In other words, coyness is a trait of feminine love, the only ingredient of that passion which is not to some extent common to both sexes. Coyness is most useful, for a man’s es- teem for virtues which he does not. alto- gether practice himself is responsible for its existence. Man's fickieness was another factor which aided its growth. If a girl did not say nay (when she would rather say yes) and hold back, hesitate and delay, the suitor would in many cases suck the honey from her lips and flit away to another flower. Experéence has taught women that men are apt to value favors in proportion to the difficulty in winning them, and the wisest women have profited by the les- eon. Another very important thing that ex- perience taught women was that by defer- ring or withholding their caresses and smiles they could Make the tyrant man humble, generous and gallant. Girls who do not throw themselves away on the first man who comes along also have an advan- tag over others who are less fastidious and coy, and by transmitting their dispo- ! a " a tig) . v4 HENRY T. FINCKE. sition to their‘daughters they give it greater vogue. Romantic love is a pendulum swinging perpetually between hope and despair. A single unkind word or sign of indifference may make a lover feel the agony of death, while a smile may raise him from the abyss of despair to heavenly heights of Diiss. How far down among the strata of hu- man life can be found traces of this in- gredient of love? Savages cannot experi- ence such extremes of, anguish and rap- ture because they have no imagination. It is only when the imagination comes into play that we can lock for the joys and sorrows, the hones an fears that help to make up the sum and substance of roman- tic love. It would be a great mistake to assume that the manifestation of this mixture of hope and despair necessarily proves the presence of romantic love. Aft- er all, the a@iternation of hope and despair which produces those bitter-sweet para- doxes of the varying and mixed emo- tions is one of the selfish aspects of pas- sion; the lover fears or hopes for himself, not for the other. Therd is, therefore, no reason why we should not read of troubled or ecstatic lovers in the poems of the an- clent writers, who, while knowing love only as selfish passion, nevertheless had sufficient imagination to suffer the agonies of thwarted purpose and the delights of real'zed hopes. In the ecstasy of his feelings Rosalind’s lover wants to have her name carved orm every tree in the forest; but usually the lover assumes that all things in the for- ests, plants or animals, sympathize with him even without having ‘his beloved’s name thrust upon them. The exaggera- tions in praising the charms of the be- loved girl or youth are frequent .even among the ancients, The Persian ‘Hafiz de- clares that “‘the rose lost its color at sight of her cheeks, and the jessamine’s siiver bud turned pale.’ Ovid deciares’ that ‘Daphne's eyes shone with a fire like that of the stars,’’ and this has been a fa- vorite compar'son at all times. In the ‘Arabian Nights’’ we read ‘if I look upon the heaven methinks I see the sun falling d6Wn to shine below, and thee whom I de- sire to shine in its place.’’ The lover longs to touch some article of Gress that has belonged to hs beloved, aa ne FS A or tightened at the wearer's will, that keeps skirt and waist together _ @nd aids in giving the “long effect in front” has been devised. jute back of the belt is satin ribbon four : s wide, In the direct back it ds stit- {b ve pees at dootner bone cov- oes e ee ah pir ei é BELT of ribbon that can be loosened 235 ‘back and when the belt is properly adjustedas tight as the wearer wishes and tiled in firmly holds the skirt band and waist together and thus prevents any sagging. This ribbon belt, which js not made long enough to reach around to the front, is finished at each end with a ring, and the ribbon is folded so that it t# half the width where it is fastened to the ring. To these rings other ribbons are attached which aré only an Inch and a half wide. The Dott is a eg aroane tue waist, and m the a bow. The novel arrangement of this belt makes the waist line from two to three inches lower in the front than in the back, which at present is a strong desire of the emartly dressed woman. The fact that the belt can be let out and pulled in at will is such apparent delight to even the woman who is a slave to fash- fon that it needs no further comment. Ex- eget toh beits in this style are made ) hibit might fly to her, nature is lovesick or to be a bird that he or he fancies that all in company with him. Heine wishes that he were a stool for her feet to rest on, a cushion for her to stick pins in, or a curl paper that he might whisper his into her ear. The lover is a great necromancer; he retouches the negative of dis beloved in his !magi- nation, removes freckles, molds the nose, rounds the cheeks, refines the Hips and adds luster to the eyes until his ideal] is realized, and he sees Helen’s beauty in a brow of Egypt. Nothing could be more amusing, surely, than the pride some men and women ex- at having secured for life-a mate whom most persons would not care to own a day. The idealizing process is responsi- ble for this comedy; and a very useful thing it is, too, for did not the lover’s fancy mag- nify the merits and minimize the faults of the beloved the number of marriages would not be so large as it is. Pride is a great matchmaker, and explains some of the greatest mysteries of love. ‘How could that woman have married such a mani- kin?’ is the question one often hears. Money, rank, opportunity, lack of taste ac- count for much, but in many instances it was pride that first opened the heart to love; that is, pride was the first of the in- gredients of love to capitulate and the oth. ers followed suit. Probably that manikin was the first masculine being who ever showed her any attention. ‘He appreciates me,” she mused, “I admire his taste—he is not like ather men—I like him—I love him!’ The compliment of a proposal touches a girl's pride, and it may prove the entering wedge of love; hencé the pro. verbial folly of accepting a girl's first re- fusal as final. And,-if she accepts: the thought that she, the most perfect being in the world, prefers him above all men in- flates his pride to the point of exultation; thenceforth he can talk and think only in exaggerations, He wants all the world to know how he has been distinguished. It was in woman’s heart that human sympathy was first born—together with her child. The helpless infant could not have survived without her sympathetic care.

Amorous sympathy implies a complete self- eurrender and exchange of personalities. To a woman who wishes to be loved truly and permanently a sympathetic disposition is as essential as modesty, and more essential than beauty. Some one has said. “Love at first sight is easy enough; what a girl wants is a man who can love her when he gees her every day."’ That, he might have added, is impagsible unless she can enter irto another’s jovya and sorrows. In primitive and ancient times man was unable to feel that love of which adoration is am essential Ingredient, but such was never the case with woman. From the earilest times have they not been taught, with club and otherwise, to look up io man as a superior being, and did not this enable them to adore him with true love? No; for primitive women, though they might have feared or admired man for his superior power, were too coarse, ignorant and degradcd—being, as a rule, even lower than men-—to be able to share even a single ingredient of the refined love that we ex- perience. At the same time, it may be said that woman had a natural advantage over man in-being gradually trained for an attitude of devotion. Just as the care of her infants taught her sympathy, so the daily inculeated duty of sacrificing her- self for her lord and master fostered the germs of adoration. Christianity emphasized and honored ihe feminine virtues of patience, meekness, hu- mility, compassion, gentleness, and thus helped to place woman on a level with man and in the noblest of moral qualities even above him. The worship of one immacu- late woman gradually taught men to re- spect and adore other women; the lover found it. easiest to go down on his knees before the girl he worshiped. “Among the lower races man habitually despises and maltreats woman. Gallantry is unknown. The Australian who fights for his family shows courage, not gallantry, for he is simply protecting his private prop- erty. Our modern gallantry towards women dif- fers radically from all that preceded it in being unselfish. It is synonymous with true chivalry—dfSinterested devotion to those who, while physically weaker, are consid- ered superior moraily and esthetically. To a lover in particular such gallantry is not a duty, but a natural impulse. He lies awake nights devising plans for pleasing the object of his devotion. His gallantry is an impulse to sacrifice himself for the beioved—an instinct so inbred by genera- tions of practice that now even a chiid may manifest it. ‘If a modern lover, desiring to possess a girl, got her into a predicament which culmi- nated in the necessity of his either slaying her with his own ‘hands or killing himself, and he did not choose the latter alternative, we should regard him as more contemptible than the vilest assassin. To us, self-sacri- fice in such a case would seem not a test of love, nor even of honor, so much as of common decency. Just as man’s fierce jealousy kelped to make women chaster than men, so the in- culecation in women of self-sacrifice as a duty gradually made them naturally in- clined to that virtue—an inclinaéion which was strengthened by inveterate, deep- rooted maternal love. Thus it happened that self-sacrifice assumed rank in course of time as a specifically feminine virtue. So much so that a German thinker declared “the woman’s life should disappear in the man’s without a remnant,’ and that this process is love. No doubt it is love, but love derands at the same time that the man’s life should disappear in the woman's. True affection is rational, conscious, un- selfish, deep and enduring. Being rational, it looks not to the enjoyment or comfort of the moment, but to future and enduring welfare, and therefore does not hesitate to punish folly or misdeeds in order to avert , - y ‘ ‘ .

The frame- work is entirely made of aluminium, and is said to resemble a vast birdcage with wire ropes. and is covered with a fabric which it is said has never been employed before in balloon construction. The adoption of the compartment.system gives certain important advantages. “This arrangement permits the use of rigid cham- bers as gas spaces without bringing the gas into contact with the atmospheric air in the chambers during filling,’’ as the patent specification says. The filling is only continued until the balloons are so distended as to leave space for expansion of the gas from heat or rarefaction of the atmosphere. Special auxiliary gas bags, of the same diameter as the main ones, are inserted between, and these are fitted with valves, etc., and can be emptied of the gas as desired in maneuvering the air ship. The main gas bags thus always remain, under ordinary circumstances, with their charge of gas intact and uninterefered with.

It was found that he had left the larger part of his wealth to his father, Morris Mehan, and that the old man was an inmate of the poor farm. Through the courtesy of Superintendent Carroll a Sunday Post-Dispatch correspona- ent saw and photographed the old man. Mehan is slight, one arm.

I think you need scalp massage. fend me your per- sonal address for further information in the matter. Cause of Gray Hair. 8S. D. C.—Gray hair is not always caused by age. The coloring matter of the hair, or pigment, is made up of minerals—iron, magnesia and sulphur. When through any cause one of these ingredients fails or be- comes less in quantity the result is a change in the color of the hair. In dark hair iron predominates, in fair hair magne- sia. When the iron fails dark hair will be- come gray, amd soretimes in the process will have a phase when it will be quite yellow. I do not myself believe that any external application will have mach @ffect upon the color of the pigment. Nevertheless i have received a number of letters from W.,. Laredo, Tex.—I am delighted that you have had suoh fine re- WS ® sults from the use of the bleach. | Many readers of this column will be inter- > ested to know that after peeling the freck- tes off by the aid of the bichloride of mer- ity bleach, using it as you did several | times a day, you are now able to keep your '@kin in a state of “dazzling fairness” by an @ceasional application. You can get the Diehioride of mervuury soap at any large | drug ptore.

Reliable Cure for Blackheads. R. E. M.—The ofily real cure I know of for blackheads is the use of the camel’s- hair face-scrubbing brush with warm water and a pure hygienic soap. Use the camel's. hair face-scrubbing brush every night. Im- merse the brush in warm water, rub the soap on it until you get a good lather, scrub the face for a moment or two, rinse thor- oughiy with clear warm water, then apply a good cold cream or skin food. All this should be done at night just before going to bed. If you have the correct brush it may make the face a little tender for a day or two, but no longer. How to Avoid Wrinkles. A. H.~—I do not think a tea made of henna scottieiatiadtaeett eens hein ee ae ey pee 4 a ae ee _ ~ « “* possibly prove beneficial. If in consequence your halr is falling out I should certainly refrain from such a mixture. The leasi harmful way to change the color of the hair is to have it stained by an expert. Try massage and the skin food for the wrinkles: White wax, lounce; spermaceti, 1 ounce; lanoline, 2 ounces; sweet almond oil, 4 ounces; cocoanut oil, 2 ounces; tinc- ture of benzoin, 30 drops; orange-flower water, 2 ownees. Melt the first five ingre- dients together. Take off the fire and beat until nearly Gold, adding, litth by little, the benzoin, and, lastly, the orange-flower water. Face Massage at Home. MRS. E. W. A.—One can massage one’s own face, but it tis very tiresmoe and tedi- ous to do so. Cocoa butter if used fre- quently has a tendency to make the skin thick and swarthy. An occasional Russian bath should not be injurious _to the hair. No, I think you should not anoint the face with grease before taking the Russq@n bath. Vocal Culture for a Plump Neck.

Massage with a good skin food is an excellent accessory to this regimen, but it will not accomplish the re- sult alone. Avoid Prematurely Gray Hair. M, G. F.—The hair dye you speak of is not one of the best. At your age I should not hesitate, and should have my hair stained its natural color. A gir of 22, par- ticularly a girl who jis earning her own liviing, is at a great disadvantage with pre- maturely gray hair. Send me your address if you wish further information on this tna tter.

This knowledge wil relieve the fears of thousands of his friends in America, where he was born. Soon after the commencement of the Boer war (Mr. Hammond dropped’out of sight and nobody seemed to know where he had gone. Many feared that he had been put to death secretly by the Boers. Others believed that he had been captured and deported by them. His appearance in New York was the ‘first definite knowledge anybody in this country had concerning his whereabouts. The history of John Hays Hammond ts remarkable. He first went to South Afri- ca through the influence of Barnay Bar- nato, the great South African mining king, and was made chief mining engineer of the Consolidated Gold Fields Mining Co. by Ce- cil Rhodes. There is no mining engineer in the world to-day whose word has great- er weight than that of Mr. Hammond. Mr. Hammond was one of the promoters of the celebrated raid made into the Trans- vaal by. Dr. Jameson in December, 1895. The letter inviting Jameson to Johannes- burg was signed by John Hays Hammond, Charles Leonard Francis Rhodes, Lionel Phillips and George Farrar. These men, with 24 others, were arrested Jan. 9, 18%, on.a charge of rebellion and high treason. A total of 64 arrests were made.

Bloch Finds That When Modern Inventions Shall Be Taken Advantage of War Will Be Impossible. J 8. BLOCH, an Englishman, has writ- . ten a@ book of 380 pages, price 6s. called “Is War Now Impossible?’ He dismisses the “‘littie wars’? which Eng- jand has waged in Egypt, India, Africa and elsewhere as simply matters of ‘frontier police.” They are trifies—not war. War means the nations of the world in arms and in deadly struggle. Mr. Bloch be- lieves that in future such war will be im- possible, and he has written six huge en- cyolopedic volumes to prove his assertion. Mhis aggregation is called ‘The War of the Future tn Its Technical, Boonomio and Political Relation.”” The volume mentioned, “Is War Now Impossible?’ is an ubridg- ment of this great edition. The Czar read this book. The result was the International Peace Conference, Mr. Bloch says. The author begins his task with an elab- orate inguiry into the methods, past and future, of waging war on land. He has no difficulty in showing that recent inven- tions and discoveries in respect of powder and small arms have revolutionized the conditions of carnpaigns. The day of the bayonet has passed. Between the armies of the future when engaged in mortal com- bat there will be “a belt a thousand paces wide,” in which no Mving being can stand for a moment. Smokeless powder and the magazine rifie will so affect the aspect of the battiefield that the soldier for a con- siderable time will not know that a battle is going om, until, In trying to rise from his rifle pit, he falls dead. The modern bullet does not roam casually over people's heads, but goes straight to its mark. Fiying at about five feet above the ground it strikes all it meets for a distance of G0 yards, and, after the introduction of the still more perfect arms now under trial in this and other countries, the effective distance wil! be nearly a mile. lts penetrative power, too, is great. It will pass easily through four or five men ina row. Trees and earthworks, unless of kmmense solidity, do not stop it. As the diecharge of the rifie cannot be seen nor even heard at the distances at which it is effective, much execution will be done before the soldier finds out where the en- emy is. The destructive power of artil- lery has also been so immensely increased it is now 230 times more effective. All this has so changed military procedure and tac- tics that the battles of the future will, ex- cept for the slaughter, in no way nesem- Die those of the past. This fact has worked upon the imagination of a Frenchman, Capt. Nigote, whom Mr. Bloch quotes, and he thus depicts a future battle: The distance is 6600 yards er the = Aye The artillery is in position and mand has been passed along the Sathories to fire. The enemy's artillery replies. Shells tear up the soil and burst. In a short time the crew of every gun bas ascertained the ai ce of the enemy. Then every pro — Ss e discharged bursts in the air over the ds of the enemy, raining down bundreds of fragments and bullets on his position.

Yet with all this movement in the two armies there will be a belt, a thousand paces wide, separating them as if neutral territory, swept by the fire of both sides, a belt in which no living being can stand for a moment. The battle will continue with ferocity, but atill those thouesnd ces un- changingly separate the foes. Which will ve given the victory? Neither! Mr. Bloch's picture of the fate of the wounded is sickening. There will be no pos- sibility of removing them under fire, for exposure would mean instant death. Af army of doctors and nurses almost as large as the fighting line will be necessary, and the wounds will be so ghastly that death, mercifully quick, will be the only desire. The mext great war will be one of en- trenchments. Uniess they are to be picked off like flies soldiers will have to fight in very loose formation and to avail them- selves, of all possible cover. The spade will be as indispensable as the rifle. and the first thing every man wiil have to do will be to dig a hole in the ground and throw up as strong an earthen rampart as he can, to shield him from the coming hail of bullets. Battles may last therefore for days, and even weeks, and in the end no decisive victory will be gained, for the end will probably be mutual destruction. On the question of the cost of future bel- ligerency, Mr. Bloch is on sure ground. He says: were triple end dual alilance to mod- lize their armies, we should have at once confronting = an expenditure for the mere maintenatice of troops under arme of £4,000,- pone. In one year of war under mad- erm conditions the powers would spend £1,400,000,000 merely in feeding their sol- diers, without reckoming all the other es- penees that must be incurred in the course ef the campeign. All the wars that have aforetime devas- tated Europe have not cost so much as this. As Mr. Bloch points out, the continent ts that war shall not happen.

The administration of ether seemed neces- sary, but ether calls for some vigor in the breathing apparatus and my son’s condl- tion in this regard was so feeble that ether was likely to kill him. So the doctors waited, hoping for some- thing to turn up, until my son insisted upon the surgeons proceeding with the ope- ration without ether. So the surgeons yielded and on Sept. 19, Dr. Abbe performed the operation. There were present Drs. Robert F. Weir and Arthur L. Fisk, surgeons, and Drs. Pierce Bailey and Bdwerd D.

He also found that the digestive powers were lessened, and the craving for animal food diminished, while the skin was stimulated to an excretory in- crease of 2 per cent. Those who are in the habit of taking cold baths, or who indulge in sea bathing, will have noticed how easily the body re- covers its temperature balance, after the shock occasioned by the first plunge into the cold water. After the first feeling of coldness passes away, the bather feels per- fectly comfortable, and if he takes the trouble to observe, he will find that both the pulse and the respiration have in- creased in rapidity, while the pores have ‘been completely closed. A daily cold bath would do much to coun- teract the effect of illogical clothing, for its stimulating action on the blood vessels and on the perspiratory glands, and the consequent aijiternate contraction and relax- ation of these vessels, trains them to re- spond easily and quickly to changes of temperature. For this reason, persons who take frequent cold baths are much less likely to catch cold than those who do not. A cold is one of nature’s signals to let us know that the temperature regulating functions of the body are not acting prop- erly. A cold is most frequently evidenced by a congestion of the mucous membrane of the nasal passages, and this state of affairs is comonly termed “a cold in the head.’’ When the congestion exists in the bronchial tubes we have what is termed bronchitis, or ‘‘a cold on the chest.’’.. In each case there is an elevation of bodily temperature. In reality the cold is in every case the result of the rise In temperature, and not the cause, but the reverse is pop- ularly supposed to be the case, Therefore, if the eliminative functions of the skin can be kept in good working order so that the body may respond promptly to temperature variations, it will be im- possible to catch cold. Under all circumstances, as has been shown, the human body is able to adjust itself naturally, without artificial assist- ance, to great extremes of temperature. But civilized man is not content to let this natural adjustment go on unaided. He must needs try té improve on nature. And he signajly falls.

Thus when the body becomes subjected to a cool draft, or when through thought- lessness the usual clothing is not worn, @ “eold” is the inevitable result. A cold in the head is of such common ooccurrerice that it is usually not seriously regarded, and yet, frequent attacks almost always develop a case of chronic catarrh which it is practically impossible to cure, Since clothing must be worn In order to satisfy the demands of civilization, let it be so designed as to interfere as little as pogsible with the heat regulating mechan- ism of the body. Evaporation on the sur- face of the skin is absolutely essential for the maintenance of life. In fact, it has been shown that if the human cuticle be thoroughly covered with a coating of var- nish or some other material oT Same to water and air, the subject would die with- in twenty-four hours. Thus, anything which interferes with the free exudation from the perspiratory glands and the sub- sequent evaporation on the surface of the skin, is injurious to health. Clothing, then, in order to be as hygienio as possible should, first, never vary ma- terially in weight or amount; second, the texture of the cloth, and especially of the underclothing, should be of such a nature as to.permik. free circulation of air be- tween the garment and the body. It is very important that the latter precaution be Observed, for the humidity ‘of «the air be- tween the clothing and the skin soon De- tion. The office of underclothing should not be to absorb the perspiration, but absorption by the outer clothing and te permit its evaporation on the surface of the skin. In this climate those who think they must wear:heavier clothing in winter than in summeg on acount of being exposed to an unuggal extent to the cold, shouid adopt their winter dress about Oct. 1 and stick to jit until the following April, when the summer clothes may take their os Under no consideration should the Welg of clothing be varied to any considerable extent, with the exception of this Di-yearly change. There should be no difference be- tween the indoor and the outdoor dress as far as “warmth” is concerned. An overe coat is an unhealthful absurdity and should never be worn. After the subject of dress, the subject of bathing is the most important tion. In order to maintain a healthy action of the skin and circulation a warm bath should be taken at least once a week, but not more than twice, This however, de- pends somewhat upon the condition of the individual. A cold bath should be taken every day. The temperature of the water- should not be too low to permit of a healthy reaction. The proper temperature is. best found by experiment, as i varies with different people.

We are perfectly delighted with them. We all think so far the presentation of the flag by the Roly Polys to Admiral Dewey is the nicest set. I would suggest that you have the Roly Polys attend the Dewey- Hazen wedding. I would also suggest that you would have them observe Thanksgiving. How long do you intend to publish the Roly Polys? I hope your next Sunday edition will contain some- thing very funny about these little peo- ple. MILTON ROSS, Parsons, Kan, To Visit Grandma, ° Dear Roly Poly Man: I have been cutting out the Roly Polys and have lots of fun with them. I didn’t get the cakewalk, but I am going to fix the Hallowe’en one. I read in the last paper for people to suggest some- thing. Well, for the Thanksgiving issue you might have the Roly Polys visit their grandmother in the country. You might have two acts—the first at dinner with Grandma Roly at one end, grand- pa at the other and the Rolys on each side. Of course the table be piled high with a good old-fashioned country din- ner and the background Of the first and second acts might be the same—a big fireplace with a good fire in it; the sides might be just walls with pictures and mottoes on them. The second act might be the whole family sitting at the fire- place, Mamma Roly popping corn, Grandpa Roly cracking nuts and Papa Roly cracking jokes, and the _ rest laughing at him; that is, have Me, Mamma and Grandpa Roly laughing at Him, but have Him and Bobby suddenly appear with two very large jack 0’ anterns. Him on the left hand, opening between the back and side, and Robby at the right hand. Have Bun with Him with a falseface and his ears sticking way out. Have Grin and Butter by the fire, Butter barking in astonishment and Grin quietly washing her face. Have Grandma and Rosy Roly very fright- ened. You might have Grandma sink- ing back in her chair screaming and Rosy falling back on the floor. The rhyme might go this way: “That the Rolys decided to visit their grandma and grandpa in the country, and that they got there all right, ate a hearty Thanks- giving dinner, and that evening as they were sitting around the fire that Him and Robby appeared with such fright- ful jack o’ lanterns that grandma liked to have fainted, Rosy fell screaming back on the floor and Butter barked in amazement at Bun standing there look- ing so comical. I hope you will think this is funny enough io go in the paper. HILDA NASH, Fort Gibson, I. T. Likes the Cake-Walk. Dear Roly Poly Man: For the past few weeks I have thought of writing you about the Roly Polys, but have as yet refrained because I thought you would not care to hear from an old man. But your little note in the last issue gave me courage, and I will with pleasure write and tell you about our “theatre.”’ I have two children, and I fixed the first theatre by fitting a half- inch board to the dotted lines of the ‘stage’ and pasting the stage to heavy cardboard, laying it on the board and cutting the slots with a chisel. This cut through the cardboard and marked the board. Then I bored three-quarter inch holes through the board at each chisel mark, then pasted the stage on the board and turned down edges at dotted lines and tacked them; then tacked the front on, thus giving a strong, substantial theatre. And when the new theatre came I served it much in the same manner. only the slots are so near together it would not do to bore full size. Then I took a heavier (three- quarter inch) board and bored three- eighth inch holes ane thee sawed out slot with coarse compass saw; this gave me a narrow slot. My children have every one from the first and keep each “act” in a large envelope. They have just finished two hours of enjoyment with them this éve. My, how they do look forward for them and both are anxious to see the new ones every week as soon as the paper comes. And really I think it is the Roly Polys that charm me to buy the Sunday World to get them to please the children. I may some day think of something that would give you a hint of a new__ adventure. But, really, Mr. West, [think you are doing all right. I think the cake-walk the best yet. I was very much pleased with the cake and table idea. It certainly was fine. Perhaps some time you may think of some way to work in a train of cars. Children as well as older people are al- ways interested in them, and I think a locomotive in the background would certainly please the little ones. I am sure I have tired you ere this, so I will stop and give someone else a chance to do better. ROBERT 8. HISCOCK, Danbury, Conn.
