INDIANAPOLIS, Ind., March 7.—Ex- President Harrison. who has talked freely with his personal friends regarding the dan- gers involved in the Porto Rican tariff bill and has spoken unreservedly of his oppos!- tion, has declined to enter into the question to the extent of giving his reasons for pub- fication: To-day, however, when asked if it were not true that he opposed the meas- ure and had so expressed himself to his friends, he replicd: “Yes, I regard the bill as a most serious departure from right principles.” Those to whom he has talked quote him &s eaying that the claim of jurisdiction over the people and the island and the denial of the right afforded by the Constitution of free commerce with other parts of the United States constituted an anomaly in this government, and such a precedent is dangerous in the extreme. Gen. Harrison has declined to discuss the political phases of the tariff bill with his friends,. saying a principle of government is involved and that it is higher than par- ties, because itjrelates to the very essence of government. Gen. Harrison contends there is no oc- casion for gratitude on the part of this Government toward the British. He thinks the British were guilty of inhuman prac- tices during the Revolutionary War, and that their attack on this nation in 1812 had no justification from any international standpoint, while their conduct toward the Union during the Civil War was also rep- rehensible. He sees no occasion for enthusiasm over ‘the friendship of the English during the war with Spain, as it was a war against cruelty and clearly for humanity. There was no reason why the British or any other en- lightened nation should not have been with America on this proposition. If the British were suppressing cruelty in South Africa or remedying conditions that interfered with human government, the United States would be justified in lending its sympathy. On the contrary, Gen. Har- rison thinks here is a republic fighting for its home, and its own government, a cause as just as the Americans had in their great war of the eighteenth century. From time to time these Boer farmers have been driven from their homes by the British, back into the wilderness and each time they have meekly gone till now. Mr. Harrison thinks the oppression has be- come too much to endure further. REVOLT IN INDIANA. Congressional Convention Without an Indorsement of the President. Special to the Post-Dispatch.

' Special to the Post-Dispatch. WASHINGTON, March 7.—President Mc- Kinley is between the devil and the deep sea on the question of the = Porto Rican tariff. No doubt he fs personally inclined to stand upon the words used in his message to Congress, for absolute free trade with the islands. But the protection interests have been heard from and his duty to the men who contributed most to his @lection must be considered, so that he is compelled to make a choice. For a time it was thought that the President was behind the Davis resolution offered two days ago in the Senate, “extending a part of the constitution” over Porto Rico,-and that he finally determined to force the pro- tection interests and antogonize the House 15 per cent tariff. bill. But it seems this is not the case, A nifember of the Cabinet, who undoubted- ly speaks for the President, has given out an interview which places Mr. McKinley squarely on the side of the House bill and its protectionist sponsors. The interview follows: ‘When the bill was eo framed that the tariff laid on Porto Rican imports from and exports to this country was to be only 15 per cent of the Dingley rates, and ail of the money 60 raised was to be expended on the island, the President felt that this was practically free trade, so far ag humani- tarian considerations went. And then the President waived his own original prefer- ence as to form and acquiesced in what seemed to be the judgment of the majority of the party.* “The President is fully satisfied, and this cannot be put too strongly, wiih the Porto Rican tariff bill Now that it has passed the House he supports it earnes}ly. He has so informed several Senators. He believes that the party throughout the country will heartily indorse the assertion of the principle by Congress at this time. The criticisms heard in*some localities are due, the President believes, to want of com- plete information and absence of under- standing of the measure and the motives prompting it. ‘*The President {s too thoroughly and con- sistently committed to protection of Amer- ican labor to need any reaffirmation of his position. “Never for a moment has the President contemplated freedom of trade with the Philippines. He was willing that those who feared the Government might not have the power to avert this under the Constitution should have early assurance. On this ground he was influenced toward acquies- cing in the Porto Rico tariff bill. “There ts entire harmony between the President and the majority of the Repub- lican party in both branches of Congress on this subject. Senator Lodge’s statement gave great satisfaction to the Admin- istration. Like many others, the Sena- tor’s first {mpressions were In favor of free- dom of trade with Porto Rico, but, like many others, a cureful consideration of all the issues involved has satisfied the Sena- tar that this assertion of the pFinciple is the proper course in the initial legislation respecting the new possessions. “The President {s more confirmed !n his support of the proposition by the informa- tion he has received from Porto Rico that the bill in its new form will meet the emergencies of the situation and will satisfy the commercial tnrerests of the island.” See ee ee A Badly Sprained Arm.

WEAKENS STEPHENS’ CHANCES HIS | | OPPONENTS SECURE EARLY STATE CONVENTION. Dave Ball’s Plan to Hold Primaries Voted Down by a Large Majority and He Parts With the Com- mittee in Temper. KANSAS CITY, Mo., M: arch 7.—The dates and places of the three State conventions to be held by the Missouri Democrats were decided by the State Central Committee late yesterday as follows: State Nominating Convention—Kansas City, June 6. tional Convention—Jefferson City, June 14. Judicial Convention—Sedalia, July 17. The basis of representation to the State nominating convention was fixed at one delegate for each 300 votes cast: for Bryan in 1896, and fraction of 10 and over. This will make nearly 1100 delegates. The old representation was established for the other two conventions, to wit: One delegate for each 00 votes cast for Bryan and fraction of 20 and over. Accordingly, there will be 728 delegates to elect to each of these con- ventions. Chairman Sam B. Cook presented his res- ignation to the committee, but it was re- fused by a unanimous vote. Secretary Vir- gil Conkling, who had assurances that he would be elected chairman if a vacancy was created, insisted upon a yea and nay vote, in order that it might be shown that he and his friends of the committee voted to reject the resignation. Mr. Cook agreed to retain the oftice until the convention shall have had an opportunity to select his successor. The odd decision to hold a State Con- vention before the National Convention, which wil probably prevent adoption of any platform upon which the candidates may stand, was caused by several reasons, but the main cause was the unanimous dis- inclination of the candidates for State offices to have their chances. complicated by the contest for the honor of delegate-at- large whivh is being waged. Perhaps the most interesting result of the convention is the showing of strength made by W, H. Phe.ps. The delegate convention wi.l be held in Jefferson City, where Bill Phelps wants it to be held. The State Committee made the decision by a vote of 24 to 6 St. Joseph being the defeated candidate. 1e committee meeting results, also, in the elimination of Judge C hrisman of Jack- son County in the delegate race. Mr. Phelps has given out an interview in which he says “‘the candidates are Gov. Stephens, ex-Gov. , Stone, Col. M. C. Wetmore and myseif.”” And it so appears. The test of strength in the committee be- tween the State administration and anti- administration forces,. led by Secretary Conkling came when the appointment of a successor to Committeeman J. T.. Bradshaw was taken up. Bradshaw had removed from Lebanon to Chillicothe. and presented his resignation. J. W. Armstrong of Pulaski County, was backed by Gov. Stephens and bis friends for the place. Conkling and his suppuriers put forward Frank Russell of slede. The result was the election of Russell by a vote of 21 to 7. The opponents of the administration are also gleeful in declaring tbat the decision for an early State convention is a serious blow to Gov. Stephens. They point out with much elaboration that with the State nominating convention hea first and the ticket chosen, Stéphens’ power to trade delegates in his favor as delegate-at-large, is practically taken away from him; and, besides,it is made possible to yote down any resolution indorsing his administration without the candidates fearing his wrath. Gov. Stephens hastened here from the cap- ital, but too late to defeat-plans of his opponents. he work of prom et a platform, it is generaliy held, will fall to the responsi- bilities of the judicial convention. Dave Baill of Pike County appeared be- fore the committee in behalf of a resolution which he had prepared favoring State pri- maries for the seiection of nominees. The committee listened to him patiently and then proceeded to snow under the resolu- tion by a vote of 25 to 4, the only members voting for it from the Ninth District. committee room in a temper. During the dey there was a meting of 150 cf Mr. Dockery’s friends from the Third ©ongresional District in the rooms of the latter at the Midland. Most of them have been his trusted supporters for years when he was in Congressional politics. Mr. Dock- ery told them that while appearances indi- cated his nomination for Governor, yet he aid mot propose to relax his vigilance. Adjutant-General M. F, Bell took the oc- cision of the meeting to formally announce his candidacy for the office of State Rail- road and Warehouse Commissioner. He har previously secured the choicest head- quarters in the city, in both the Midian and Baltimore Hotels. The fight between the Hawes and Brady factions of the St. Louis Democracy was placed before the committee late in the afternoon. Senator John W. Drabelle presented the etition of C ommitteeman Haney and Doug- as Crothers of the St. Louis Central Com- mittee, stating that they had been unlaw- fully ‘and arbitrarily expelled from the committee without the formality of a hear- ing. By motion Senator Drabelle was al- lowed to state the case before the commit- | tee. James G. Butier appeared in defense of the Hawes-Butler element, and stated that the expulsion was legal and justifiable. Harry B. Hawes also appeared in behalf, of his faction, having secured the proxy of Committceman Henry Quelmalz of St. Lovis. he arguments -consumed two 1 on t behalf of Committeeman Crothers, Cen- ator Drabetle stated that he had been ex- pelled on the c harge that he had made cer- tain puviic statements to the effect that members of the St. Louis Central Commit- tee had been and could be bought in the reorganization contest, which occurred re- cently in St. Louis. Crothers admitted that the statements were true, but stated that he had been expelled without . forma! charges being preferred against him, and without being given an opportunity to prove the truth of the statements. The Haney case, as stated by Senator Drabelle, was that Mr. Haney had been expelled from the St. Louis committee for no other reason than that he was not a member of the ‘‘Hawes-Buitler crowd.”’ In reply, Hawes and Butler both deciared that Haney did not represent the Democrats of his ward, and was originally appointed against the wishes of the ward delegation to the city convention. The State committee finally authorized the appointment of a sub-committee of five members with full power to investigate the case and act upon the petition of Crothers and Haney. The following were appointed on the committee: N. J. Winters c Milan, chairman; E. J. Beans of Hillsboru, J, M. Saliee of Bethany, M. T. Davis of Aurora and L. 8S. Hickman of Warrensburg. The committee met at 8 o'clock in executive session. and after listening to debate for several hours, decided that it could not ar- rive at any conclusion withous closer in- vestigation. The committee will according- ly meet in St. Louts Sunday, but as its work must be ratified in order to be ef- fective, and as the full State committee will not be agalh called to meet until June 4, the present formation of the comntittee will remain unchanged until that day.

THE FOOLERY CF ROLITICS Phe suggestion of Senator Elkins that the “colonial” ques- tion be left to the President is childish folly. The notion that Congress should surrender its powers and decline the obligations imposed by the Constitution is so absurd that no rational man could seriously entertain it for a moment. And even more grotesque is the proposal to let the President deal with legislative questions according to his own wisdouin. No doubt Mr. McKinley would like to pose as a benign em- peror with absolute power. The thought would tickle any man’s vanity. But the American people are not yet ready to permit even so good a man as the present occupant of the White House to exercise absolute power. Some time ago we decided thet the government of man was not to our liking and set up #& Bovernment of law which has worked very rijeely. Mr. MeKinley is « very nice man, as are all Presi- dents, but- we don’t want an absolute monarch, no matter how benevolent.

What a Return to Eight Clubs Means to St. Louis. realize what the reduc of League circuit to eight clubs Louis and other Western Very few tion the National means to St. cities. Well, it means this. The circuit being re- duced to eight clubs, each club wiil be to spend just one-third more time at home than formerly. With a twelve-club league the home team often went aw: iy from home and stayed away for a month at a time. If the circuit is reduced to eight clubs each one of them could make the entjre circuit, playing three games in each city, in just twenty-one days. Formerly to meet the six Eastern also it took eighteen days and when four games were piayed in each town it took “hii ag ped days. When all the teams were layed on the trip it took over month. to dispose of the games with them Ss 4 result of these long absences of the local teams. interest in the game lagged and on their return from a lone abserce they often played to empty benches. ‘The return to an eight-club league will do away with this evil. able clubs —— Prize Fight Percentages. The percentage a manager receives from a fighter varies widely, according to al! re- ports, the fighters retting all the way from 90 per cent of the purse down to 10 per cent, while some of them are lucky to get their meal tickets.

Tod Sloan, the little American joekey who is now sojourning in New York, this week told his close friends there why he and Lord Beresford had fallen out. Many stories have been going the rounds (have not ‘lub and, in full, | my about Sloan being turned down by the Eng- lish Jockey Club and aristocracy generally on the other side. It has been said that he will not get a license to ride. All the rumors, however, had the foundation necessary (tO inspire one with the belief that such action will be taken by the Jockey Ciub. he- ferring to these rumors Tod says: “What reason have they to turn me down. I ave done nothing contrary to their rules, excepting, probably, my littie episode with a fresh Waiter, who, I think intentionaliy upset a tumbier of wine over clothes, for which I tickled him on the head with an empty bottle. I know that is against the ru-es of the Jockey Club, and comes under the head of disorderly con- duct, but it was excusable, and made amends by staking the fellow to a neat eum and paying his bills while he was in- | capacitated. “The reason Beresford and I are net as |sociable as before is owing to his wishing me to work horses in the morning like stable boys do In this country, and I refused to do so, as I have had too much work of that kind in this country. He also want- ed me to 20 scooting all over the country to every little one-horee meeting that took place, and this I did not care to do, 4s the traveling is too severe jumping from one town to another every couple of days, sleeping at bum hotels and putting up with many inconveniences. For these reasons I don’t suppose I shall ride regularly fo) Beresford; in fact I do not intend to con- tract with anyone to ride permanently, but be free lance for a season, picking out tne best mounts offered to me.” In speaking of this vear’s English Derby Sloan is very enthusiastic over the chances of Mr. Dewan’'s horse, Forfarshire. ‘‘Tod’ claims that he is quite a few pounds bet- ter than Democrat, and that if he can se- cure the mount on Forfarshire he will do so, though the chances are against him for the reason that Sam Loates is not only a friend of Mr. Dewan’s, but a first-class jockey, and will no doubt be first consid- ered. On Sloan's handicapping he considers Forfarshire surely ten pounds better than Democrat. Th's is a straight tip for pros- pective bettors on the English classical event.

Sy am aa - iam M. ~~ WEDNESDAY—ST. LOUIS: POST-DISP ATCH—MARCH 7, 1900. A DESPERATE. YOUTH, —-_— EDWARD SULLIVAN ROBBED AVVO SHOT POLICEMEN. HE BOASTS OF HIS DEEDS. Born and Reared in East St. Louis, Where He Began His Career of Crime Misdeeds in This City. For a thug of limited experience and a narrow field of operation Edward Sullivan, who is in the Four Courts hold-over, is as hardened and as desperate a man as any Chief Desmond has ‘“‘sweated’”’ for many a@ day. Sullivan is 23 years old and a native of Bast St. Louis. He has lived on the Bast Side all his life until a few months «ago when he came to St. Louis to work in O'Brien's boiler yards on Mulianphy etreet. Four months ago he lost his job at the boiler works because he had taken to drink and wag negiecting his duties. When he fuund himselt out of work he decided to take up highway robbery as a profession. Once before highway robbery had helped him out of a hole, he says, and he hud always looked upon il as a good game. He was working in a round-house in Kast St. Louls, ana had been arrested ir a raid upon a crap g4me. ‘Lue fine amounted tu $]i4 and it took all his wages to pay it Then he started oul wilh @ pis- to] to recover the $14 from the first cili- gen-he met. He dia so, and the ease and success of the transaction made him @ convert to the army of “stick-up men” and ail-around crooks, Sullivan's looks do not belie his convic- tions that hixzhway robbery is ‘“‘a_ gvod game if a fel.ow can get away with it.” He is a short, beavy-set youtn, with tick, jet-black growth of beard He 1s sWwag- geringiy touga and proud of having given the police troubie. He «aiso takes pride in being considered ‘game.’ Having been caught in the act of shooting @ policeman with intent to kiil, he defianuly admits that he also did a number of high- way robberies, and says he is ready for any punishment ne may be given. ‘This fellow Davis, who was with me when I shot Policeman Meagner nen night,”’ said Sullivan to the Post-Dispatc Wednesday, ‘is not my partner, though the police think he is. I am_ not going to squeal’ on my partner, and they needn't try to make me teil. I'll stand for ali tney ve got against me, and I'll stand alone, but they aon’t get my partner’s fame. “Why did I shoot Meagher? KHecause he was going to arrest me. It meant time in the penitentiary if I was caught with a pistol and burglar’s tools in my pockei, and I wanted to get away. It was tough luck that I ran into another policeman, for I'd surely have got away from ‘Meagher. I’m sorry to hear Meagher is so bad Off, though.”’ Sullivan fails to see the sarcasm of his deeds in having robbed a sergeant of police and a private watchman. Cooney, the East St. Louis police officer who was halted and made to hand over his gold watch and small change, was just an ordinary citizen, in Sullivan’s eyes, and he says he did not know Pickett was a Terminal Railway watchman until after he had robbed him. There is real humor in the thought of a low-browed youth terrifying a police offi- cer of rank and a soft-shod private watch- man, but Sullivan doesn't see it any more than his two victims. No warrant has yet been Issued either against Sullivan or Harry Davis, who was arrested with him, for the assault upon Meagher. Acting Assistant Prosecuting Attorney says he will wait a few days upon the wounded policeman’s condition before issuing the warrant. A warrant charging robbery in the first degree has been issued, however, against Bullivan by Charles Fuchs of 307 South Sec- ond street. Sullivan admits having at- tempted to rob Fuchs and engaged ina 6'ruggle with him. eullivan says he has no family living, his parents haying died some years ago. His home in St. Louis has been at any of the cheap lodging houses. THREE TIMELY TOPICS —_— MR. FRED W. LEHMANN ON YOUNG MEN’S OPPORTUNITIES. MR. WORCESTER ON FILIPINOS. Rev. Dr. Jonn W. Day on “The Mean- ing of War’—Reviving Popularity of the Lecture Platform. The ninth of the talks delivered at the Central Branch of the Y. M. C. A. was heard by a large audience Tuesday night. It was delivered by Fred W. Lehmann upon ‘“‘What Opportunities Have Young Men in Business and the Professions?’ Af. ter telling of the difficulties that seem overpowering to the young man who starts out to seek a place, Mr. Lehmann went on: ‘‘There is no heredity in business. Trace back the history of the great concerns of St. Louis and you will not have to go be- yond their present heads to find those to whom their great success is due. You will find them without pedigree. Our great rall- roads are not now being managed by those who built them, which shows that the in- jection of new blood and new ideas were found necessary. While the business field for young men to enter is free, it will be found anything but an easy one. Every man has to meet and settle the daily prob- lems of life himself. He canmot depend on other men to do this for him. “If a man is able to do something better than the average he will find a place to ply his vocation. Just as water seeks its level, so will the persistent, energettic man find his place at last. The progress of our elvilization proves this fact. If the more numerous we would be retrograding. “The man who starts out to get as much as he can, and give as little as posible, may have some success, but it will not be great. It is not the business of time to serve the man, but it is the business of the man to serve his time. Things of this life worth having will be hard to get. Young men have strength and hope, while oid men have memory and experience. Young men should resolve to keep them- selves abreast of their fellows, so that when the yvpportunity they seek comes they will not be found a laggard.”’ Rev. Dr. Day on War. | which Rev. D>. John W. Davy talked before the Social Sclence Club of St. George’s Church Tuesday night on ‘““‘The Meaning of War,” was discussed by the club after- ward. Dr. Day held that war is a part of the life of to-day, and therefore has a place in human economy, “But,’’ he said, “there should be a dis- tinction between war as war and this or that war. Right now the peace societies can probably get more recruits from among the anti-impe-cialists and the pro-Boers than from any other source. Yet this fact roves nothing ave been opposed to the Mexican war .is no reason why I should declare that all another distinc- | wars are wrong. Then, tion should be made.

Yet we cannot say that the weak side has the right becatise it may be the under dog. Neither shall we eay We can Only say that war is a manifestation of human nature, and that war between nations is only the development of force in the trdividual to the highest extent. War is force exercised in hehalf of a pur- pose, which may or may not be righteous. War would be unnecessarv if people would agree without a physica] nature being em- ployed. “There are those condemn the pulpit ‘holler than thou’ who for praying for the euccess of arms, but they take ex cathe- dra judgment. Let them prove the opin- ion of the preacher wrong before condemn- ing him. A ‘fighting’ parson should be no strange thing. It is fitting that he should pray for the right side to conquer in war. “These peace advocates, I dare say, will not refrain from using enough force with an erring child to save him from himself. You would be no Christian and no lover of humanity if you would not help the inno- cent against the evil. The man who Is pro- tected by the guard who would take life rather than see his ward be killed is the etter guard for it, and the ward sleeps the sounder. I believe that I hear the sound of Jesus’ voice when I quote: ‘Greater love hath no inan than this, that he lay down his life for his brother.’ ‘“‘War will never be abolished by a major- ity vote of individuals or nations. It must be a unanimous vote of the nations, the people. Peace comes times, fighters. picket lines. Yet if we wvould do with war we must plant the seeds of in the souls of men. We must banis venge, envy, jealousy and inordinate desire. Until that ts done war will be as potent a force im the history of our world @s it ever was.”’ Wild People of the Philippines. Dean C. Worcester, lately professor in the Michigan University, lectured to the students of Washington University Tues- day night at Memorial Hall on “Wild Peo- | Ples of the Philippines.’’ large and ap- prociative audience heard ‘him, and enjoyed the stereopticon views he showed. After e was introduced by Prof. E. C. Eliot, Prof. Worcester took up his subject, ex- plained the ‘meaning now attached to the word “Fiiipino,” and continued: “The Filipinos are to-day commonly re- | ferred to as a nation or a people. Nothing could be farther from the truth. The total population of the islands ts estimated at from 8,000,000 to 10,000,000. It is made up of no fewer than three distinct races, and weace ithese again are divided into 84 tribes, dif- | fering from one another In language, cus- toms and laws and sundered by ancestral jealousies and feuds. In religion they are pagan, Mohammedan or Christian. In so- cia] development they vary from abject savagery to a relatively high degree of civ- liization. “Or the 8&4 tribes mentioned, seven may be fairiy rated as civilized. Eight are Mo- | hammedan and 69 are wild and pagan. Al- though the civilized and Mohammedan tribes include the majority of the inhabi- tants the wild people are by no means a negligible quantity. In numerical impor- tance they vary widely; some of the tribes are known to number 30,000 to 40,000 IiIndi- Viduals; others are much less numerous. ystimates as to the total number of wil peoples in the archipelago are, at the best, mere guesses, but there can hardly be few- er’ than 1,000,000."" In conclusion the speaker said: “It would be a sorry commentary on our methods if we could not do something to improve thelr condition, for from material little better than this the civilized tribes | of to-day have been brought to their pres- ent state of advancement by their Span- | ish masters. It can hardly be claimed that the examples in government which have been set them are of the best, and it is not | to be wondered at that when the old sys- tem went down with a crash and they at- tempted to set up a new one of their own they soon found themselves in difficulty.” | Prof. Worcester will lecture at the same lace this evening on the subject of ‘The More Civilized Races of the Philippine Is- ianda.”* GEN.

The answer to this question has been sought after for years by soicntista and physi- cians. Physicians rightfully claimed that if it is a disease tt can be cured, and, therefore, went upon the theory that it was a disease and sought treatment whereby drunkenness could be cured. Dr. Ozias Paquin, for years a practicing physic'an in the City of §t. Louis, studied this question from every standpoint. Finally, after many scien- tific researches, he completed a method which in his own opinion was a positive cure for this despoiler of happy homes. - DR. PAQUIN. In an interview Dr. Paquin declared “that drunkenness its a disease which blights happiness, beauty, love and tears down homes to build up insane asylums, poor houses and jails.”” After the Doctor had his method perfected to his own gsat- lefaction, he decided to give it a ‘severe test; he went to a prominent citigen and told that citizen if he would send to his (Dr. Paquin’s) office five of the wurst crunkards that coukd be found, he would {cure them of their dGisease and return | them sober without any further appetite ‘for intoxicating drinks. The prominent citizen decided to accept the propesition, and, after looking the city over, he finally found five cases which he thought would fill the bill. These five oares were all beyond middie aga four were men and one a woman; the emtire five seemed to be beyond all hope, as they had sunk into the deepest pit of drunkenness, three of them were delirious and all were hiabit- val drunkards, with the odor of drink 60 obnoxious that it was almost impos- to perfect a’ An Eminent St. Louis Physician Positively Proves He Can Cure Drunkenness—A Remarkable Test. sible to stand within speaking distance. In thirty days’ time Dr. Paquin returned the entire five in a sober condition, with the flush of health upon their clseeks, and | the light of happiness in their eyes, and It was | with all odor of whisky gone. almost a miracle, for he had raised five huinan beings from the gutter of degra- | dation | happiness. into the sunshine of health and Since Dr. Paquin’s great dis- covery there is no doubt in the minds of scientists and physicians but that drunk- enness ia a Gisease and can be cured. His method not only removes the desire for drink, but renders alcohol antagonistic to the system; in this lattor particuiar the effect is much the same as is exX- perienced when one upon some favorite article of food and ever afterward that particular dieh ie rendered repulsive. However, by the Paquin treatment the patient is not made lores all desire for drink, and later finds even in small quantities. From what Dr. Paquin has demonstrated it oan be said treatment. of patients who were relapses from other treatments, end in every instance he cured these patients, and they have re- mained cured for months and years. It can, therefore, be stated that the Paquin treatment is a permanent cure and not a temporary ona, of no more humane work being done at the present than that which Dr. Pa- quin is dotng.. The Doctor is in his that this young man has thrust aside the opportunity which was surely his to become the head of the medical profes- sion in his community for the purpose of light of sobriety and happiness into the midst of drunkenness and misery. It is the duty of every reader to assist Dr. Ozias Paquin in his noble work, and if any reader has brother, sister, husband, father or friend in whose system lurks the disease of drunkenness, he should at once send their name to Dr. Paquin, or see that they either visit or place them- selves in communication with the Ozilas Paquin Immune Co,, suite 1113 Ohem- ical Bldg., Gt. Louis, ‘The reader that does this will certainly be doing a Chris- tain act, for no matter how hopeless the case may seem, and no matter how many other treatments have been unsuccess- fully tried, the method known es the Dr, Ozias Paquin’s Treatment will perfect a cure, dispelling all desire for drink and at the same time it will place the constitu- tion in a rebust and healthy condition, HE SAYS HE DRANK A TONIC. a Frank Hoover a for Being in the City spital. ‘whisky in his life, is a patient at the City Hospital. The records say he is suffering from alcoholism. He was picked up unconscious from the} street Tuesday night and his condition was, such that he was hurried to the hospital. At first all efforts to revive him were un- availing and he was entered on the books as an “unknown.” When Hoover awakened from his long Sleep Wednesday morning he iooked about him and wondered where he was. The morning lignt was streaming into the win- dow and soft-stepping nurses were moving about. He was still nervous when he talked to the Post-Dispatch, “They may have written me down as al- coholic,”” he said, “but I assure you I am not a drinking man. A tonic was the cause of all my trowble. I am employed in, the order department of a big wholesale drug house. One of the articies they ship out in large quantities is a tonic composed of pineapple juice and sherry wine. In pour- ing it from the carboys into the bottles a portion of it is wasted. Tuesday I caught some of the drippings in a glass and tasted the tonic. I found it good and repeated the operation several times. I am not accus- tomed to drinking liquor, and the effect of the tonic on me must have been marked. “After leaving the store I drank two glasses of beer. That is the last thing I remember. They tell me I was picked up on the street and the doctors say I was very drumk. Hereafter I will fight shy of tonics.”’ WORLD'S FAIR DELEGATION. Messrs. Francis and Thompson Have Gone to Washington.

Because of the successful crusade insti- tuted by the Post-Dispatch and the New York World against “Sappho,” the unclean play founded upon “Sappho,’’ the novel by Alphonse Daudet, the book is rapidly being withdrawn from public Hbraries all overazhe United States. The novel is excluded from the shelves of six New York libraries, namely, the Cooper Union, New York University, Washington Heights Free Library, the Y. M. C. A, library, the Young Men’s Benev- olent Association Free Library, the Har- iem library and the De Witt Memorial Free Library. The Carnegie Libraries in Pitts- burg and Braddock, Pa.; will not keep the book, nor will it be tolerated in the public libraries in Boston, Buffalo, Philadelphia and Detroit. So far as St. Louis is concerned the per- fnicious work has never been kept in the Pubiic Library. It was recognized as im- proper when it was first issued, and no copy of it was ever bought. In the Mercan- tile Library it is to be found. but only in the original tongue. Some years ago there was also an English translation of the book in the Mercantile Library, but it was either worn out or lost. At any rate it ‘‘disap- peared,” and no attempt was made elther to find it or to replace it. Some of the other large libraries which have barred ‘“‘Sappho” are: Polytechnic Library, Louisville, Ky.; City Library, Indianapolis, Ind.; City Libra- ry, Cambridge, Mass.; Pratt Free L&#- rary, Baitimore, Md.:; Yale Library, Harvard Unit- versity Library.

Opposition to Phelps and Stephens as Candidates for Delegates-at-Large to National Convention. War to the knife between former Gov. W. J. Stone on one side and Gov. Stephens and Col. William H, Phelps on the other, is the most interesting outgrowth of the meeting of the Democratic State Commit- } tee at Kansas City, Tuesday. Mr. Stone returned to St. Louis Wednes- day morning determined to inaugurate his part of the war at once. He has announced to his friends that Gov. Stephens and Col. Phe.ps cannot go to the National Conven- tion as delegates-at-large if he can-prevent irregular meals, in use by them is Kindly read city, a railroad Railway, which them. He is quoted as saying: “Now that this fight is on, I hope the committee will give Pheips every advant- age. 1 will not ask any favors. I welcome an oppertunity to meet nim at Jefferson City or anywnere else, for the purpose of fighting it out. Phelps and Stepnens may go to the National Convention as delegates- at-large, but they will not go wtih my consent. They may win by the use of transportation and all the other corrupt agenc.es at their command, but I will be at that convention and I will do all I can for the patient never to prevent their success.”’ Stone and Phelps is The feud between It commenced of several years standing. in 1895, when Stone calied an extra sess.00 | of the Legislature for the avaweg purpose | lobby driving Col, Phelps out of the business. It ‘has simmered along, with oc- casional outbreaks on both sides, until reached Stone’s ears that Phe.ps and Gov. of Stephens had formed a combination for the) purpose of having themselves elected dele- gates-at-large to the National Convention. , Then Stone served notice on Gov. Stephens | that he must not ally himself with Pheips Gov. Stephens seems not to thave heeded the warning, for it Was apparent to all at Kansas City Tuesday that he and Phelps were working together. Phelp’s scheme was to have the State Committee combine the State Nominating and Delegate Conventions, and hold it at Jefferson City. This would practically assure them victory, since it would give Phelpa a chance to control a majority of delegates by giving them transportation, When this plan became apparent to Stone, he determined to make known his position as opposing the domination of corporation influences. The committee gave the delegate conven- tion to Jefferson City, thus giving Stone an opportunity to make good kis promise of a bitter fight. Stone’s position, as stated to friends at Kansas City, is that the domination of railroad influences in the Democratic party has become intolerable; that the issue may just as well be made now as at any time; that he is willing to lead a fight against the corporation influence, in defense of the people’s rights; that he believed the party would stand by him, and he ed the committee would give Col. Phelps all the advantage, so that the issue might be as acute as possible. Another incid2nt of the meeting which is being talked of by those who know the facts ‘s the defeat of J. W. Armstrong, who Was a candidate for the place made va- cant by the resignation of James T. Brad- shaw, who was committeeman from the Kighth District. Frank Russell of Laclede County was elected. This was a fight be- tween Gov. Stephens and Gecretary Virgil Conkling of the committee. Conkling and the Governor have never been friends and the enmity between them has been bitter- ly personal since Conkling denounced the Governer as an ally of Phelps and charged that the railroads paid his campaign ex- penses. Some time ago, Armstrong wrote a letter to Conkling soliciting his support for the place and saying that he waa supported by the Governor. Conkling at once cast about for a candi- date with which to beat him. He hit upon Frank Russell of Laclede County. Russell consented ta be a candidate, but Conkling chose to make a quiet campaign for him, and he was kept in the background. In fact, he was in Arkansas for several weeks before the committee met. Paul B. Moore, the Governor’s private secretary and broth- er-in-law, was sent to Kansas City to man- age the campaign for Armstrong. He had not been lone at work before he ran afoul of the quiet movement for Russell. It frightened him, and he telephoned to the Governor at Jefferson City that he would better come to Kansas Citv. The Governor arrived Tuesday morning, but his influence was not sufficient to save Armstrong. Rus- sell was elected by a vate of 21 to 7.

On the application of Campbell B. Shaw, Judge Klein issued an order Wednesday, commanding Justice R. B. Haughton to show cause why he should not be pro- hibited from trying certain suits that have been instituted in his court by Joseph Franklin, Jr., against Shaw. The petitioner claimed that Franklin haé filed three suits agairst him on a run- ning account, dividing it into such small amounts that the Justice would have juris- diction in each. Judge Klein was ai first inclined to deny the petition peremptcriiy, declaring that the petitioner had an ade- quate remedy by appeal and that he didn't deem it a wise policy to allow a writ of — tion to issue where an appeal remedy “William A. Alderson, for the defendant, argued that Judge Klielin had a@ good pre- cedent for issuing the writ in the act of the Judge Ferriss from enforcing an tmjunction in the beer inspectcr’s case. ‘Well, with all due respect to the 8u- preme Court,’ said Judge Kiein, “wrats of prohibition are frequently issued without any justification.’”’ The court concluded, sider the petition and issued the aiterna- tive writ, returmable Friday, Justice Haughton meanwhile betng restrained from trying the cases. HIPPARD COAL MINE FLOODED. Vigorous Work at the Pumps Reduced the Inflow. The Hippard coal mine, near the Walnut Hill Cemetery, Belleville, Ill., was partially flooded Tuesday. For a time there was dnager that {t would be flooded entirely. The eondition was discovered when the men wene down to work in the morning. There was then so much water in the mine that they could not gv to work and they did not consider it safe to go after their todis. which were at distant points from the shaft. Fhey returned to the top and the pumps were started. For a time the pumps did net seem to avall, but toward night the Water began to recede. It was announced Wecnesday morning that practically all of the water was out of the mine and that the men could go to work, It is not clear where the water came from. It is supposed the flood in Richland Creek Yiad something to do with it. The creek was out of its banks in places the night before, and it is reasone that the overfioe inay have reached a point where ihe sdvil Was porous and there were fissures in the rocks which let the water threugh. At any rate when the water receded in the creek tt ceased rising in the mine. If the mine had been flooded the com- pany, besides the damage to its property, would have lost several valuable mules which are always in the wit. REVIVAL AT THE TABERNACLE. Rev. L. C.

It Will Be a Spiritual Feeder for All the Churches. The first service under the new regime in the Second Baptist Church, will be held next Sunday, under the direction of the Rev. and Mrs. L. C. Hall, who are at its head, The new organization, the City Taber- nacle, will not change the church except to put in an altar rail, similar to those in all Methodist churches. Yet it is the purpose of the Tabernacle to have all its converts join other churches, rather than to identify themselves with it, the idea of the founders being to prumote spirituality in this way. It‘is to be in every sense a mission, though a mission of a somewhat different sort from those farther downtown. In the neighborhood of the new Taber- nacle many live who are not poor, and who perhaps would dislike to attend a down- town mission, and yet who, on the other ¢dliand, are never seen inside the churches. The Tabernacle is to be a stepping stone for such persons, a pate where an at- tractive service will be held, and where those who think a little about religion may become interested and perhaps be con- verted.

He Wasn't in town an hour ere he had been led into a trap and robbed of a check for $1000, $30 in cash and his return ticket to Arizona. Mr. Hester, whose initials are J. K., had been visiting in Centralia, Ill, and was waiting at Union Station for the departure of his westbound train. He thought to kill time with a stroll through the neighborhood of the station. As he passed an alley—sit- uated just exactly where he can’t state—a negro woman seized his hat and throwing it behind her, broke out in laughter. Nat- urally the Arizona man was angry. He started after his hat and the woman sprang upon him from behind. Throwing both arms around him, she searched his pock- ets before Hester was aware that she was aot continuing her practical joking. The woman too Hester's pocketbook and escaped. Hester told his trovbles to a pesennee and went away saying he would ake the next train back to Centralia and stop payment on the check.

ONLY FIVE CAPITAL PRISONERS IN THE ST. LOUIS JAIL. FEWEST IN MNY _ YEARS. @ vo of the Five Have Gone Through One Trial, With Hung Juries— Remaining Three Negroes. In the St. Louis jail at present there are only five prisoners awaiting trial on mur- der charges. Not in twenty-five years has the number been so small, and unless there is a sudden influx the jail will shortly be almost clear of men charged with shedding human blood. Of the five now in jail two have already been tried, and hung juries resulted, else the number would be cut to three. These two prisoners’ trials will again occur next week, one to be decided in each of the Campbell Allgaier has been ifn jail longer than any of the other prisoners confined there on a murder charge. He was placed in jail on October 19, 1898, and has only been out during his trial, which covered a period of three weeks, a year ago last De- cember. Then he only walked twice a day from the jail to the courtroom upstairs where his trial was in progress. Aligaier is charged with having shot and killed James A. Baker in August, 18398. Notwithstanding his long confinement traveling to St. Louis from Walnut Ridge, Ark. He is at the City Hospital suffering from disease and serious injury, the direct result of his wild ride. Pettit is without home or friends. When he leaves the hospital he will have no place to go and will be compelled to re- sume his weary wanderings. It will be many days before he can walk, for both of his feet are frozen. He came to St. Louts locked in a box car. Had the journey lasted a few hours longer he wouwld have died for want of air. .As it was, he was completely ex- hausted and almost dead from exposure. His bed on the journey was a pile of straw. Under this there was a layer of Wis = \ SN | ~~ Rw JOSEPH PETTIT. ice. He was frozen in the place where he sought warmth. The car in which he rode was a beer car, which was not loaded but had been iced. The covering of straw hid the blocks of ice in the bottom of the car Pettit said to the Post-Dispatch Wednes- day morning: "Iwas on my way to St. Loulg when I became ill. I was so weak when I reached Walnut Ridge that I was unable to walk further and gank exhausted in the railroad yards. Two well dressed men came along and advised me to craw! tnto a freight car. They assisted me to a train that was com- ing to St. Louie and helped me into a beer car “When I entered the door was oe went to sleep and did not wake for hours. The train wag in motion and the door was locked. I beat upon it with all my might, but could not make myself heard. I was three days on the road with nothing to eat. e air was stifling and I was numb with cold. When the train reached St. Louis the door was opened, but I was unable to move. If I hed remained in the car a few more hours I must have died, for the air was foul and stifling and the pain I rT from the cold was almost unbear- eble.’’ TERMINAL RAILROAD MEETING. Large Increase in the Gross Earnings of the Company. The St. Louis Terminal Rallroad Asso- ciation held its annual meeting Tuesday at Camp dell Allgaler does not show the marks of his imprisonment. He has been a model | prisoner, and his bearing at all times has been that of a gentleman. He is exception- ally neat in his personal appearance. His step is firm and quick and his eye is bright as on the day he entered prison. He has been a “‘trusty’’ from almost the very first and is at present the librarian and sees to the distribution of the newspapers. He, reads a great deal and keeps in touch with the outside world through the newspapers. One would never suspect that he was a prisoner, but might mistake him for a fall official. Allgaier’s new trial is set to begin next Monday. The only other white man awaiting pun- ishment for killing is Eugene, ahas “Hughey” Donnelly. This 1s the young man who, on July 4, last, is alleged to have shot and killed Mrs. Grace Miller, wife of a grocer in whose employ Donnelly was. Donnelly is scarcely 21 years old and has nothing of the mental calfber of Aligalter. The youthful slayer of Mrs. Miller is slov- enly in his appearance, reads nothing and has no chosen friends in jail. He, too, has been once tried for his Hfe, but the jurors could not agree The remaining three prisoners charged with murder are negroes. They are William Balley, Wilfam Basket and Richard Bibbs. In addition to these five prisoners men- tioned there are confined in the St. Louis jail two men who have been convicted of first degree murders, and who are now under death sentence. The date for the execution of one is near at hand. Unless Gov. Stephens interferes between now and next Monday, Frank . Calla- way will forfeit his Hfe on the gallows for the murder of his young wife in a de partment store downtown last April. An effort has been made to have the ernor commute his sentence, The other convicted murderer is James Nettles, a negro, who was found guilty of having murdered Samuel Mann, a_ street car conductor, on July 4, 1898. Nettles’ day of execution was originally set for Feb. 27, but a respite of 30 days was granted by Gov. Stephens. WAITER DIED IN AMBULANCE.

Fell Over a Balustrade —Frank Dohile, 2% years old, fell over a balustrade at 1601 North Nineteenth street Tuesday night, striking on his head and suffering slight scalp wounds, “The most gorgeous things that persons wear these days,” said the St. Louls haber- dasher, as he put away a box of ties and slammed the showcase shut, ‘“‘are those you do not gee. The average man is dressed soberly enough for a judge, on the the ex- terior, but beneath his outer garb he is Bayer than a peacock, while Solomon in all his glory was not so arrayed.” “How? asked the inquisitive man, as ho looked past his chin and saw a touch of a flashy tle, and pulled up one trousers’ leg and looked at his rainbow sock. “Ain't these gay enough?’’ “Yes,’’ answered the man with the task of making men beautiful. ‘“That’s just what I was saying. You are gay enough where no one sees it, but beyond a g!impse of tie, and of cuffs, and an occasional sight of socks, what are you? You are a raven, acrow, 2 blackbird. You are no more than a neutral tint. Your clothes are black, blue, brown or some unobstrusive hue, and your hat 1s the game, or white. Your shoes are an ugly yellow, or they, too, are black. And there you are. “But take off your top layer of clothing; discard coat and waistcoat, and see, You wear a shirt that would put the rainbow to shame, and it is noisier than a boiler fac- tory. Your tie now spreads all over the front of it, in colors that make the Boer- British war stupid in thelr conflict. You are, above the waist, at least, a dream of kaleidoscopic tints, in inharmonious blends. “And if you were to discard farther, and one might see your underclothes and socks —say, you would be arrested for more than walking about half undressed. These socks themselves would start a riot call. In com- bination with that striped underwear—oh, yes, I know you wear it; all of ‘em do— you are a wonder. But who would know it, from the outside?’’ “Then wherefor all this chatter?” asked the customer. “Just to show you that man is as vain as woman, only he dares not show it. He is worse, if anything. Woman is taking more and more to our ways, and now the gayest things she wears are her stockings, which are out of sight—or ought to be. he will conceal her lavish colors more and more, too. But beneath the — covering, as with the men, you will find the brightness just the same, and the more it is conc ed, the brighter it will get. Pretty soon tne lingerie will be all pink and baby blue and yellow and red, in stripes and Dbiocks, as the hose is now. And then, truly, woman will be the ‘equal’ of man in another par- ticular. “Oh, it’s a good thing for me. The oftener a style changes in men’s things, the more there is In it for ine; I’ve no kick coming.’’ And the haberdasher smiled. WILL VISIT THE GREAT FATHER Osage Indian Chiefs on Their Way to Washington, D. O. A party of Osage Indian chiefs headed by C. N. Prudemon, passed through St. Louis Wednesday on their way from their head- quarters at Pawhuska, I. T., to Washing- ton, D. C. They will pay their annual visit to the Great Father and incidently will attempt to have some afeged Binet agree adjusted. The members of the Osage tribe now re- celve $400 a year each from the Govern- ment. They will @ek that this allowance be increased to $1000 a year. If this request is refused they will.then petition the Gov- ernment to allot thefr lands among them. There are six delegates on this mission— all chiefs—and ![t would be difficult to fin six more splendid, specimens of physic manhood. he onky member of the party standing less than six feet in his stockings and weighing less than 20 pounds was a white man. The chiefs presented a picturesque appear- ance in the waiting room at Union Station. Two of them wore the dress of the civilized man, but the other four were decked out in regular Indian fashion, with blankets of the gaudiest colors imaginable. Towerin two inches above any of his fellows en more gaudily costumed, Sasee Chief, ex- Governor of the tribe and sage of great renown, was the object of much admira- tion. The Osages are the wealthiest tribe of Indians in the United States. The are frugal and save a considerable portion of the allowance made to them “4 the Govern- ment every year. They teke kindly to the ways of civilization, and it is said they wish to nave their lands allotted so as to have their own farms to cultivate and im- prove. They believe in cleanliness and their delegates to Washington speak well of their | practice of the theory. Axminsters, . Royal Velvet, Brussels, ... Tapestries, . . | . KENNARD & SONS.
