Many Business Buildings in Ashes With a Loss That Will Reach Almost $100,000. PEORIA, Ill., Aug. 17.—Smithfield, a town of 1500 inhabitants, 48 miles west of here, was visited last night by a very disastrous fire, started by incendiaries for the purpose of robbery, which threatened for a time to entirely destroy the place. As It Was, a dozen buildings were burned and the loss, it is estimated, will aggregate $75,000 to $100,000. With the exception of two stores all of the buildings and stock burned were covered fully by insurance. plaintiff and with making her life disagree- The fire was discovered about midnight in able in other ways. the rear end of Robertson's grocery store, and spread-rapidly both up and down North Main street, consuming the grocery where it started.

All of these were frame buildings and ev- ery one of them was totally destroyed. There was no insurance held by either Mul- verton or Robertson. The village has no fire department, but the citizens attached garden hose to the town pump and did what they could in this manner and with buckets to get water onto the fire. Their efforts, however, were of no avail and the fire burned until it had consumed the entire business block. The fire was of incendiary origin, the match having been applied by men who aft- erward tried to rob the homes of the vil- lagers. They were discovered in two or three houses, but managed to escape before they could be captured. They left town in a wagon, driving rapidly away.

The collapse of Chinese resistance is explained in dispatches from Shanghai as being due to the failure of the Chinese to flood the country below Tung Chow. The earthworks connected with the dam at Pei Ho were unfinished, and the canal at Tung Chow was full of water, facilitating boat transport when the allies ar- rived there. Signals between the allies and the legationers, holding part of the wall at Pekin, were exchanged during the morning of Aug. » 15 (Wednesday). SHANGHAI, Aug. 17, 2:40 p. m.—Li Hung Chang has re- ceived a telegraphic dispatch announcing that the allied forces entered Pekin Wednesday, Aug. 15, without opposition. It is believed that Yuan Shi Kais troops have gone thence to Shen Si to protect the Empress, who, according to reports received by local officials here, with Tuan, the imperial household and the bulk of the army and Boxers, left Pekin Aug. 7 for Hsian Fu, The British troops will land here tomorrow.

It is alleged that “the defendant is a man of morose, surly and quarrelsome dis- position, and, at all times during the mar- riage aforesaid, has shown an utter lack of consideration or affection for this plain- tiff: that he has refrained from speaking to the plaintif® for days at a time, and on one occasion the defendant did not speak to the plaintiff for a period of three weeks and did freguently order the plaintiff to ‘eave him, and did try to eject her from her home and did threaten to shoot this plain- oo. A decree of divorce, with judgment for suitable alimony and the _ restoration of the plaintiff's maiden name, Minnie Bor- chaarat, is asked. The plaintiff and the defendant were mar- riei at Edwardsville, Ill., the home of the former's parents, Nov. 8, 1899, and separ- ated last Tuesday. The circumstances of the separation were unusual. A race war, such as has caused so much trouble in New York in the past few days, threatens to break out in the neighborhood of Fifteenth and Biddle streets at any min- ute. This is the result of a threat made by Mrs. Alice Parsons, colored, to drive all the ‘‘white trash” out of the neighborhood. Trouble has been brewing several days. Last Sunday it seemed for a while that the situation had reached a climax. Bpecial to the Post-Dispatch. CHICAGO, Ill., Aug. 17.—Arguments for the defense in the spicy trial of Arthur Wallie Patterson and Mrs. Sue lL. Ustick began at 10 o'clock this morning before Justice Everett.. Half an hour before the hour set for the hearing the little courtroom was crowded The argument for the defense is being ronducted by Attorney Todd.

According to the witness Clara Balley, said the attorney, Patterson left the apart- ments occupied by Mrs. Ustick each night for his club. Opposed to this evidence was only that of so-called detectives, who swore Patterson remained all night in the flat, as they did not see him leave the flat. Such evidence, he contended, was unworthy of belief. Attorney Todd said: “There has been positively no evidence offered to show im- proper relations between this man and this woman, certainly not sufficient to warrant the damnable charge made against them. Such a charge can be sustained only where @ man and a woman live together in open violation of the law, and there is no such claim in this case.”’ Attorney Walker, for the prosecution, will attempt to show that many precedents | make the evidence in hand strong enough to hold the accused. Last evening the hearing of was concluded. The last witness was Clara Bailey, Mrs. Ustick’s colored maid, at th» flat on Wabash avenue, fitted up by Patter- son, whose story was on the whole favor- able to the defense. “Mr. Patterson employed me as a house- keeper May 1,"’ said the witness. That was a week before Patterson had secured his dl- vorce and three weeks before Mrs. Ustick e from St. Louts. Oe tMr. Patterson furnished the flat in Wa- bash avenue,” ‘the witness continued, “‘and was furnished when I went to work ia He lived there until Mrs. Ustick me. Then she took the bedroom. I slept n the small room off the kitchen. I was the last one to go to bed. Mrs. Ustick would go to bed first. Mr. Patterson would feave the flat about 11 o'clock every night and then I would go to bed.”’ “And then Patterson would come back every morning for breakfast?’ : “Yes, sir; he would come out from the uestioned by Mr. Todd, the witness said t Patterson's mother had told her she furnished the flat. The prosecution rest- ed there and the defense offered no ev!i- ence, but Attorney Todd desired to argue he case for 4 minutes. Detective Bamuel A. Neff testified that he had kept constant watch on the Wabash avenue fiat between July 13 and July 39, the date of arrest. He said that Patterson was seldom absent and that until after the arrest the name plate on the speaking tube n the vestibule bore the name of “A. Wal- He Patterson.”’ The plate, he said, had gince been removed. Detective Thomas Ryan aroused some erriment in the court by telling how he watched Patterson from all sorts of places and had kept a diary on cards eu {CONTINUED ON PAGE TWO.) | ‘ i testimony | | with ; norance ' little MRS.

Nickel-in-the-slot machines, the gambling kind, are still in evidence in many quarters of the city. Many arrests have been made, few convictions have been had and the ma- chines are doing a thriving business, while the various officials explain that the other ofticials are failing to do their duty Chief Campbell told the Post-Dispatch a few days ago that the new police law per- mitted, the president of the board to destroy the machines, but he could not say why President Hawes be asked. Mr. Hawes stated that raids were begun under his orders and that he issued orders that when a machine was brought in the time he be notified and he would proceed on the destruction plan. ‘There is no second time with these ma- chines,’ said Chief Campbell Friday. “‘How are we to tell when a machine has been ar- rested before? We can place no identifying marks on the machine. “If Assistant Prosecuting Attorney John- son would do his duty we could dispose of these amachines in short order. But he will not issue warrants and we are to a eanenand extent helpless.”’ “The law provides for the police to de- stroy these machines,’ said Mr. Johnson “antl the city could be rid of the machines in a day if the police would do their duty The law says it fs the duty of the president of the police board to issue warrants and summon the owners and destroy the ma- chines."’ F Sed) Pa at ne : age ‘ = int! es vf cheering information from many sources positive as to be generally credited in of- ficial quarters, that the allied armies had had been relieved. This information came from press dispatches from London, Shang- hai and Berlin, and were eagerly scanned by the officials in Washington. They were unable, however, to furnish the slightest confirmation, neither the state, war and navy departments, nor the Chinese minis- ter, having any advices that this happy consummation had been reached. When the cabinet session began at 11 o'clock it was with this lack of official information, and yet the conviction from unofficial 1n- formation that the crisis had been relieved. At the state department a cipher dispatch was received from Consul Fowler at Che Foo, a point quite near Pekin, but unfor- tunately it conveyed no word of the ar- rival at Pekin nor the rescue of the lega- tioners, referring to points already pretty well known. A dispatch from Admiral Remey, dated at Taku, yesterday gave in- formation as to the situation at Pekin on the 10th.

He reckoned that since the al- lied forces were at Tung Chow there had been ample time to cover the short distance between that place and Pekin, so that the reports tallied with his own calculation on what was likely to have occurred. The Chinese officials have no knowled whatever of the reported departure of the Kmpress Dowager and the imperial house- hold from Pekin on Aug. 7, as mentioned in the Shanghai dispatches. The place named as the point they look for refu is said to be about 100 miles back rom Pekin. It is not where the summer pal- aces are located. Rumors have heretofore reached Chinese officials that a movement from Pekin might be made, but they have never been borne out by official advices.

Will the United States Become a Party to the Seizure’of Chinese Territory? | me WASHINGTON, Aug. 17.—If {t proves true that the legationers are relleved, the gravest crisis is removed. But there remain many momentous questions to be deter- mined. It appears to be accepted that at least some of the powers will keep their military forces in China, at least until all questions growing out of the crisis are set- tled. This is expected to involve questions not only of money indemnity, but of terrt- torial extension on the part of some of the European parties to the controversy. It is not believed that the United States will be a party to any such territorial controversy, as the declaration of Secretary Hay, made at the beginning of the trouble, forecasted the purpose of this government to seek to preserve Chinese territorial and adminis- trative entity. He said in his note of July 3: “It is, of course, too early to forecast the means of attaining this last result (preventing spread of disorder), but the olicy of the government of the United tates is to seek a solution which may oy about permanent safety and to China, preserve Chinese territorial and administrative Sathy, protect all rights guaranteed to friendly powers by treaty and international law and safeguards for the world, the principle of equal and im- partial trade with all parts of the Chi- nese empire.” There have been many changes itn the situation since that declaration was ye and yet it seems to clearly indicate that ! territorial extension is one of the seq to the crisis, the United States will not be ua party to it.

It is said that Street Gommissioner Varrelmann has plans for expending a million and a haif dollars on street improve- ment during the next six. months, if he can get the consent of the property owners. It would be excellent work in the line of preparing the city for the World's Fair, if the property owners would eco- operate with Mr. Varrelmann in the proposed improvement. Very much more than this will be necessary to make the streets presentable for the Fair, but this amount of improve- ment would be a long step in the right direction. It is needed in any event, even if we were not expecting the greatest of World’s Fairs. With the prospect before us, it will be a matter of civie pride for citizens to do all in their power towards getting the streets in good order. It is absolutely necessary that the work of street improve- ment begin at once. The reproach of bad streets must be taken away, and it will take time and work to do this. — —_— — —_— SS Admiral Seymour's praise of Capt. McCalla is deserved, but not gurprising.

If anyone doubts that Mr. Drexel-Biddle represents the old aristocracy of Philadelphia, he does not know the Quaker City. And if anyone thinks Robert Fitzsimmons is not a representative of the new aris- tocracy, he has failed to keep up with the times. Are we not evolying an aristocracy of strenuousness, and is net Bob Fitzsimmons, Esq., a Jeader in the strenuous life? The incident at Philadelphia, where pugilist dined with plu- tocrats, may mean that the old aristocracy sees its ‘“finish’’ and willingly passes the coronet and scepter to the new. If this be the case, it will not be surprising. The new aristocracy is, after all,-entitled to precedence, because it ig @ survival of that which is most ancient, namely, the rule of fists, the aristocracy of brute force. ‘‘The King is dead; Long Live the King!” oe Senator Hanna may retire, but he will not let go of any- thing essential.

Ingalis, who died Thursday morning, Was a man of great force of character, wide information and searching intelligence. He just missed greatness because of the innate cynicism which paralyzed his faculties when they were most needed for public service. He would have been nobler had he been able to see more nobility in the mass of men. He would have been more use- ful to his country had he not overemphasized the selfishness of human nature and been more alive to the generosity of human motive. in the Senate he was always admired, often feared, but never loved. His name will be found in the chronicle, but o: his real work iitile, if any, will be found for history to com- memorate. ————__-—_—— eoe- -—- John W.

Mr. Alt, the tlarbor and Wharf Commissioner, public bathhouses along the river front, This is in line with what the Post-Dispatch has often pro- posed and strenuously advocated. According tu Mr. Alt’s estimates, suitable houses can be erected at a cost of $2000 or $2000, but unfortunately the money is not available. Too true. There is money enough to pay the salaries of in- spectors who do not inspect, to feed wasteful contracts and support a horde of henchmen w ho oecupy public places as a Vantage ground from which to serve private special inter- ests; but there is no money to make the city tnstitutions habitable and safe, adyance necessary public improvements or provide the simplest means of public health and comfort. How long wil! citizens and taxpayers of St. Louis submit to the present deplorable condition of public affairs, while bosses and heelers make off with the public funds? oo There is too much private interest in public affairs in Cuba Corporations have too many privileges and too many monopo- lies.

Rath-House John Coughlin of Chicago has been a useful man. He has done something towards illustrating Carlyle's philosophy of clothes. As a sartorial freak, he has adver- tised Chicago.

The muse Polyhymnia has in- gpired him and he is breaking out into song. Already Bath-House John has written a love lyric. He called it “Dear Midnight of Love.” It bewailed a period when no red necktie illumined the pathway of Cupid to height; 2 cents 5 cents 15 cents | 65 cents | 45 cents 644. 665, 2020 A6iG, A618 cove poet, with long hair, fishy eyes and a disregard for froek coats! —_—_-—_——__—_# ee TKE FLY IN THE OINTMENT. St. Louis is proud and happy. She opens wide her gates and bids the editors of Missouri welcome. The molders of pub- lic opinion from Atchison to New Madrid are given the keys of the city. Nothing is withheld from these Knights of the Quill—these valiant champions of the public weal and brave foes of wrong wheresoever found. Recognizing tv the fullest extent the great power and sible of the unscifish way in which these forces are wielded, it is most fitting that the greeting which St. Louis extends should be broad, generous and without reserve. Meanwhile we tell our visitors something about the city’s greatness. We grow statistical] and declare That: The wholesale trade (sales) of St. Louis in 1899, as reported is the Merchants’ Exchange, amounted to $407,500,000. The manufactured product of St. Louis in 1899 was valued at $340,000,000. ‘There are nearly 7500 independent factories, employing 130,000 men and women. The wages paid are $7,500,000 annually. St. Louis is the terminus of 24 lines of railroads, St. Louis hag the best railroad terminal facilities in the world. St. rivals the Bois du Boulogne in area and far exceeds it in beauty and development. The total park area is 2125 acres. St. Louis has 267 churches. St. Louis has the best street car facilities in the country; mileage, 450. St. Louis has put $175,000,000 into new buildings during the past decade. St. Louis is the second largest shoe distributing point in the United States. St. Louis is the best hardwood lumber market in the world. In 1898 the shipments exceeded 525,000,000 feet. St. Louis-made street cars are used in nearly every large city in the world. St. Louis is the best horse and mule market in the world. St. Louis has the largest brewery in the world, besides 25 Others of various sizes. But: We are not saving much about the dirty, dust-laden, dis- ease-breeding, disreputable-in-every-sense_ streets. We are ashamed of them-—ashamed that a city so rich, so great, so powerful, has failen into evil hands and seems utterly, abject- ly helpless. Editors of Missouri! do not judge St. Louis by her filthy streets! Have charity! — Bishop Morrison claims that the missionaries are respon- sible for the troubles in China, and/Re fs proud of it. China, he says, will be ‘‘cut from end to end/’by. the armies of the cross, carrying the Gospel to the heathen.” It may but there seeins to be a contradiction. The word ‘gospel’ means “good tidings.’ Is there no way to communicate the news of love and good will save by thrusting it into the Celestials bodily at the point of the sword? a‘ oe By the simple expedient of building a fence along the lake shore a Chicago nhilanthropist has secured liberty to swim for the boys and men in his ward. Free bathing can be had wherever there is free water if enough interest is feit in the subject. be, oe Chicago has provided 46 additional schoolrooms this year, with accommodations for 2208 new pupils. It is to be hoped that St. Louis has not been idle in this respect, but that a seat will be found for every. child when the schools open. The promised visit of a Greek war to the United States is a reminder that Greece Was once a great sea power. Civilization teday might have been essentially different had not the Greek fleet overcome the Persians at Salamis. -——-_ ——- -@~e —_—_—__—_— The Chicago pwlice have been performing the same farce of seizing slot machines and returning them as was.- witnessed in St. Louis.

Chicago women went to church last Sunday without hats. Simplicity is geiting to be a tad. The doors of the Senate may open to Gates when he rolls his million-dollar bar’l up against them. Will the coming generations of American millionairesses ac- cept Countess Castellane as a horrible warning? There is but one Chinese clergyman, regularly ordained, in America. His name is Jam Jee, and he is the sweetest China- man of them all. Countess Castellane should take her golden thimble, her sharpest needle and a strong thread and look for the hole in her little Count’s pocket. While Chaffee is at Pekin’s gates, Von Waldersee is making speeches at Frankfort, Germany. Hurry up, Von, or you won't get there with the camp followers. Prof. Hilprecht has dug up a library of 17,000 tablets at the temple of Nippur. It is not impossible that he may find a good description of a shirtwaist for men among them.

Recent examinations show that the Tower ‘Of Babel, like many other national monu- ments, had been restored after the lapse of centuries. According to the most re- cent theory, this restoration was under- taken in the sixth century B. C. by Nebuchadnezzer, the original building hav- ing been erected forty-two generations pre- viously. ¢ This would give as the date about 2000 B. C., which coincides fairly with ordinary biblical chronology. The foundations, or vaults, below the actual base of the build- ing. which is placed at Ctesiphon, about sixty miles from Babylon, have been meas- ured and shown to be about 600 feet wide. Upon this foundation a building about 700 feet high was placed, and from this rose the tower, composed of seven stages or floors, culminating in a temple or sanctu- ‘ary about sixty feet in height. — THE TABLES TURNED. imported furor latest he th an ef- soutache . 2) XA call perfesser?’ me.’’ bugs after ‘les mor mn er } P ‘ VUS Offers Prize of Five the Best Description aA ich a Garment. four-in-hand, wear men’s shoes, collars and ties.

The water was smooth, the breeze fresh from the land, and in short all things were favorable to the fugitives. Donna Violetta and her governess were leaning #gainst a mast watching with im- patient eyes the distant domes and the mid- night t‘twautv of Venice.

There was little difficulty in persuading Stefuno Milano to abandon forever the serv- ice of the Senate for that of his feudal! lord ‘The promises and commands of the latter were sufficient to reconcile him to the change, and all were continced there was no time to lose. The felucca soon spread her canvas to the wind and slid away from the beach.

DINEEN PITCHED GREAT BALL. S0 Did Jones For That Matter, But the Beaneaters Won Out All the Same. With the score a tie, one man out, two men on bases and Hamilton at the bat in the eighth inning of the first game of the final Boston serics, Burkett played in close to prevent a hit and run play on the part of the Beaneaters. His judgment proved costly, as Hamilton lifted the horsehide over his head, and though Jesse made a valiant effort to grip the falling sphere, it dropped safe, and two of the visitors crossed the pan, while Ham- ilton raced around to secon The next two men were easy outs, but as the locals falied to tally in the final inning, the game went to the visitors by the nar- row margin of 3 to 1. Thus St. Louis’ short winning streak was temporarily broken. McGraw wus absent from his posi- tion on Thursday on account of sickness, and it was his substitute, Pat Dillard, who passed up a brilliant opportunity to retire the visitors on an easy double play in the eighth inning, he fumbling Dineen’s grass- cutter and giving tne heaneaters a life which they took advantage of, as recited above. Up to the eighth inning when the game was won and lost it was one of the pret- tiest and cleanest exhibitions of the nation- al pastime witnessed at League Park this season. The contest resolved itself into a pitchers’ battle from the first inning. with neither Dineen nor Jones having an appre- ciable advantage With the bases all occupied and but one out in the locals’ half of the eighth, Man- ager Tebeau sent Donlin to the bat in Jones’ place. Mike was equal to the emer- gency and it was his slashing single to left that tallied the Cardinals’ lone run. Burkett and Heidrick’s best were taps to the infield and St. Louis’ wetting ended then and there. Cy Young was sent to the firing line in the eighth, Jones having been forced to retire when Donlin batted in his place, and bed the visitors’ winning runs were tal- lied when Young was occupying the rubber, had his support been perfect they would have been retired without increasing their score. Capt. easy run- The local fans do not take much stock in the story now current that Capt. McGruw is to be secured by John T. Brush, presi- dent of the Cincinnati Club. inite is known in regard to the matter, and nothing can be learned, as all parties con- cerned refuse to talk. Mr. Brush has left the city, and if he does not return the matter will probably be for- gotten and dropped, at least for the present. McGraw is just now in very bad shape hysically. The little captain has been troii- led with boils for some time past, and though he has kept in the S ame and played great ball right along, he has suffered ex- cruciating pain in consequence. He was so sore and stiff Thursday, partly from boils and partly from his double collision with Harry Wolverton during the recent Phila- delphia series, that he was unable to walk without the assistance of a cane. He said after Thursday's game that he would re- sume his position on Friday, but it Is doubt- ful whether he will be able to play in less than a week. His wonderful gwameness and disregard for physical pain, however, are such that he may keep his word and play in the second Boston game Friday after- noon. NATIONAL LEAGUE. ‘ STANDING AT NOON FRIDAY.

The petition states that some one entered the room of Mr. Lawrence and beat Lawrence and s wife; that later Lawrence said that it was Updegrove who didit. This, says the petition, charged the plaintiff with burglary and assault, for which $5000 is asked.

A stylishly dressed girl. giving her name as Madeline Drew and her address as 3221 Olive street, was arrest d at Twenty second and Pine streets at 3 o'clock Friday morn- ing in company with Thomas Tobin of 271 _ Dayton street, a clerk for a shoe company. Officers Massey and Fay rushed to the corner mentioned on hearing screams and found Tobin supporting Miss Drew and two men running away. They were taken to the Four Courts and held until Miss Drew's father called and took her home. Neither Tobin nor Miss Drew were under the influence of liquor. She exp'’ained to the police that she simply wanted to see the sights’after dark and induced Tobin to accompany her. When they reached the corner where they were arrested, she said, two men claiming to be detectives ap- proached them and, seizing the girl, dered Drew away. She struggled and attacked both of the men. the police heard her screams. 8. @. cuws and calves, each.... native cows and calves, each... native « ws and calves, each.. native cow and calf veal calves veal calves, 8s.

Loudon of Pro Tem, Mo., Owner of Copper and Zinc Mines, Knocked Down and Robbed. Albert B. Loudon of Pro Tem, Mo., owner of copper and zinc mine property, arrived in St. Louis Wednesday expecting to dis- pose of his mines. He was to meet Prof. Phillips, a mine expert of London, England, at the Southern Hotel, Saturday morning, , and together they were to go to Pro Tem to look over the property. Loudon will no doubt have to postpone his trip a few days. He is a patient at the City Hospital, his head bandaged to cover a deep scalp wound. Early Thursday morning Mr. Loudon was found at Seventh and Chestnut streets, ly- ing on the sidewalk. The wound in his head was bleeding profusely and he was unconscious. An ambulance conveyed him to the City Hospital and when he arrived he was sufficiently recovered to tell his name and where he lived. Loudon did not know how he sustained the injury. He believes he was assauited and robbed. He states that he had about $25 in his pockets when he left the Welling- ton Hotel, where he is stopping. When searched at the oe but 12 cents were found in his possession. Mr. Loudon came to Missouri. several years nee from England. He has been rospecting in the copper regions until he S finally located “‘pay dirt.”’ Are Here to Stay. That tan shoes are not out of date was demonstrated by a large business transac- tion Thursday morning. As Mr. Moffitt sat with his feet on the table in his favo-iie attitude, “Harris, the Four Dollar Shoe Man,’ came in. ‘‘Harris,"’ said Moffitt, “do you want to buy 6500 pairs of patent leather, vici kid and tan calf shoes at just the cost of the material?’’ Harris stated his willingness to buy 5000 pairs on such terms. ‘‘Well,’’ said Moffitt, “here are a lot of patent leather, kids and fall tans, and every pair of them cost $3.50 to $4.7» to turn out of the factory. Take every one in the house and you can have them for 50 cents on the dollar.’’ He meant it for a bluff but Harris called him. All day yesterday, with the thermometer 9? in the shade, Moffitt was busy checking off the lots that will be hauled to 520 Pine street Friday and be started on sale Saturday morning. Harris savs he does not care what it cost Mr. Moffitt’'s house to make the shoes, he intends to sell every pair of them at the uniform price of $2.50, some of them at $1.98. If you want to see * busy store for the next few days drop in at aapair rg 520 Pine street."’ Maybe you can suit yourself in a .50 pat leather shoe for $1.98. sina Removed the Fines.—Typographical Union No. 8, at a meeting Thursday, re- moved the fines imposed on members who ride on the cars of the- St. Louis Transit Co.

Jacob says he had no reason to complain of his treatment by his parents. They fur- nished him with everything he wanted, in- cluding a reasonable allowance of spending money, and most boys would have been en- vious of his lot.. A supposed call to the career of greatness came as Jacob was playing with some friends in the rear yard of his home, and he answered it forthwith. Telling his friends he would return in a few minutes he de- parted from home in his Fags bon. clothes, which consisted of a pair of overails, a cot- ton shirt and heavy shoes. He jumped on a passenger train as it pulled out of the station, and, when the con- ductor came around for his fare he told him he was penniless and begged for a ride to Marshall, Ill. The conductor. impressed with his story that work awaited him there and pitying him because of his misfortune in having only one leg, granted the boy's petition. At Marshall Jacob began to get a taste of the selfishness of the world and received his first lesson in its inapprecilativeness of am- bition. He found nothing to do and was for- tunate to eat every day. A week of that town was enough for him and he made a jump to Danville. He found some friends there, but, after two weeks, they told him to go elsewhere. He came to St. Louis. He decided Friday morning that he had had a surfeit of a roving life and gavé him- self up to the station police with a petition that he be sent home.

(NOMINATION BY PRIMARIES. ee ee Party in St. Louis County Much Divid. ed Over Old Question of “Ring”’ and ‘‘Anti-Ring.”’ Politics, like the weather, is sizzling in St. Louis County these days, particularly in the ranks of the Republicans who have controlled the county for years. For the first time in the history of the county, the Republicans will nominate their county ticket this year at primaries, in- stead of a convention. The primary elec- tion has been set for Sept. 4 The issue to be fought out at the pri- maries is whether the ‘ring’ or the “‘anti- ring’ crowd will control the nominations. The “anti-ring’’ people have the same slo- gan to use against their opposition in their own party that they have _ been using against the Democrats at Jefferson (City. instead of ‘“‘Clean out the statenouse,’’ it is “Clean out the Courthouse. ” Both sides have candidates for every of- fice. For sheriff, the allewed ring has se- lected Albert Autenrieth as its canuaidate, He is at present a deputy sheriff. He be- longs to the well-known family of that name at Clayton and is a son of the late Henry Autenrieth, who at the time of his death was chairman of the Republican county central committee. The ‘“anti-rin;,’ candidate is Edmond Hencken of Hoilow. HencKen Was @ depu- ty sheriff four years ago under Sheriff Gar- rett and made a reputation as a brave offi- cer. He aspired to the office of sheriff at that time, but the powers that were at the time turned him down for Peter Kerth, the present incumbent. John Osborne, another deputy sheriff, is also a candidate for the office, as are ex-Assessor John G. Weber and George Herbel of Carondelet township. The tght is between Auien- rieth and Hencken, with Osborne as a dark horse. Prosecuting Attorney Gustave A. Heli- dorn, who has already served three terms. is out for the same office again. Pitted against him is Rowland L. Johnston of Old Orchard. Mr. Johnston is a young law- yer who has served three terms in the state legisla.ure. He is the can.idate of the antis and is making a vigorous campaign. For treasurer there are three candidates. The ‘ring’ candidate its Judge George Hornecker of Eureka. He is at present one of the judges of the County Court. The other candidates are Philip Deiser of Strat- man and Judge August Hartmann of Black Jack. kor collector Judge Theodore Heege of Kirkwood has come out a candidate, backed by the “ring.’’ He has been out of office two years, but prior to 1898 served 10 years as presiding judge of the County Court. H. W. Karrenbrock of Manchester will bi his opponent. For assessor the present incumbent. Otto Priess of Clayton, will again be a candi- date, but it is understood he will not have the support of the “ring.” Its candidate is Charles Stein of Ferguson. Preiss is said to have fallen into disfavor with cer- tain people because of the independent spirit he disp!ayed in miki: S appolitmen s. Edgar Rapp of Ciayton, who has served three terms as commissioner of roads and bridges, wants still another term. William Elibring of Stratman is the man selected to make the race against him. There is no opposition to Dr. of Webster Groves for coroner. Jucges of the County Court are to be elected from the First and Second districts. In the First J. B. Brouster. the present in- cumbent. is out for renomination. Ix Probate Judge A. J. Shores Wants the sane o.u.:ce. AS Judge Hornecker, who now rep- resents the Second. has decided to enter the race for treasurer. a number of aspi- rants to suceeed him are announced.
