First Man Entering the Death Cell Who Has Lived to Tell of Its Secrets as Known Only to Those Condemned to Die. Bpecial to the Post-Dispatch. SING S:NG, N. Y., Aug. 18.—Kdward W'se, the condemned murderer whose sentence has been commuted to imprisonment for life by Gov. Roorevelt, is the only condemned murderer who ever lived to write the true story of the deathhouse at Sing Sing. For 16 months he was the tenant of a eell in “hat dolorous place, expecting each month, each week, to be his last. During that period six of his comrades were led away to the electric chair. Every man with an imagination has tried to picture himself in that frightful situ- ation. Victor Hugo wrote a novel on the sub- ct. Tage the Post-Dispatch Edward Wise has written exactly the feelings of a man who expected cach week to be his last and just what the condemned men do from day to day. Wise was sentenced to death by Supreme Court Justice Williams on March 31, 1899, for the murder of Charles F. Beesley. Bees- ley had died from a fractured skull after being knocked down at Twenty-ninth street and Ninth avenue, New York City, by two men, of whom Wise was one. The other man, who is believed to have struck the blow, escaped. Not until after conviction did Wise re- veal his confederate’s name. It was John Sweeney. The motive of the assault was robbery, ut the killing was evidently unin- tentional. Wise, albeit he had got into bad company, was a Bostonian of good antece- dents, weil known as a professional base- ball player, and had many warm friends. His counsel, Abraham Levy, after ex- hausting the resources of the law to upset the conviction, addressed himself recently to Gov. Roosevelt. His plea for mercy was strengthened by a petition signed by many prominent citizens of Boston, including members of the massachusetts Legislature, whom Lawyer Levy had taterested in the case. Gov. Roosevelt commuted the sentence of death to life imprisonment. Meanwhile Wise had spent 16 months in the deathhouse, a neighbor of such notort- ous murderers as Roland B. Molineux, Dr. Samuel J. Keniedy and Fritz Meyer. But for Mr. Levy's labors he would have been tho thirty-third victim of the electric chair in Sing Sing prison. BY EDWARD WISE. It is not easy to collect my thoughts. And it’s strange how thoughts go tumbling over each other in the mind of a man in the death-house—and when he gets out of it. Here is One to start with: The best way to punish murderers would be to put them in the death-house for six months or a year, according to the badness of the murder, and let them inink they were really going to die, but not to kill them. The worst man in that place finds out what a sacred thing life is and what an awful thing death is, and would never again lift his hand against a fellow-crea- ture. They might safely be let go after that, and society would be saved the nasty work of killing them. But that is a fool thought, because, of course, it would get to be known that the death house was only a bluff, so the pun- ishment wouldn’t work. I have lots of fool thoughts, but I often think there’s a little bit of truth at the bottom of some of them. The biggest thought 6f all just now is that I'll never go through that door at the end of the little passage to find out if the chair looks like the thing I had in my mind night and day for 16 months—I mean the little passage that opens off one side of Murderers’ Row, which I'll never see again as long as I live. “As long as I live.’’ What a strange sound that would have had a few weeks ago! But I can say it now without shiver- ing, and I feel like shouting it, only that would bring down the keepers on me, and aybe they wouldn't let me finish what ‘ve got to write for the Sunday Post- Dispatch. I used to read stories, and I believed them, about men who beggged to be executed ra- ther than go to prison for life. There's not a word of truth in it. There are not many things that make a man willing to die, and rison lifé isn’t one of them. I ought to now, and I’d rather live in one of those cages the Chinese put people in than I'd go to be killed, because life—but it’s no use of me trying to put into words what I think and feel and know about the difference be- | tween being alive and having to die. It was the dim light of the place that struck me firs’, and the quiet of it—lIike a church. Up to the time the fron gate of the deathhouse slammed behind me I tening to the words the judge said. Then when I got to the prison they gave me a bath and a new suit of clothes and took down all about me in a book. Death House Like a Grave. But when I got into the deathhouse there Was nothing more to occupy my mind. It was like being buried, only worse. First of all I wanted to see what the other men there looked like. They were my new comrades—death comrades, you might call them—and I felt a sort of affection for them and a feeling that we ought to stand by each other. But the curtains were pulled down over their doors. They always pul) down the curtains when anything is happening in the death-house, when a new tenant is moving in or an old one moving out—to the chair. I just had time to see there were four cells on one side and six on another, and that between the cells on one side a little passage ran off"as far as a daor— and I guessed what was the other side of that door. And just as I was feeling creepiest I ave a laugh to eg rl oy it was Good y. The keepers at me strange- but not unkindly. ~* indeed, I soon found out thet the only |} thanking him, I he out ' in hadn't | time to think.

On May 18 we had a visit from Warden Johnson. There was nothing strange about that, only that his kind face was very grave. He went straight to Adrain Braun's cel! and started talking, so low that all I could hear was a sort of a mumble. But I could see poor Braun's face. It looked green in the pale light. His eyes were very wide open, but very steady. He gave a big swallow two or three times, and wet his lips with his tongue and squared back his shoulders, and then he said some- thing short and gentle to the warden—* think—and the warden marched away without looking at any of the rest of us. There was silence in the death-house for quite a little time, and though we all halt guessed that the Court of Appeals had gone against Braun, and were dying with curiosity to know for certain—I know I was—we didn’t ask a question because we knew Braun was trying to brace up to tell us,and it was only fair to give him a chance. And sure enough he called out by and by in a pretty steady voice: “Well, boys, it’s all up with me. I’ve got to quit you pretty soon.”’ And Fritz Meyer says in a husky voice that he tries to make jolly: “All right! Keep a stiff upper lip, Braun my boy. When's your time?” “‘In ten days,’’ said Braun. And after that we were all much quieter than be- fore Minds Dwell on the Coming Death. All that silent 10 days I kept getting fond- er and fonder of Braun, and sorrier and sorrier for him,-and I'd have given anything to shake hands with him just once, but of course I couldn’t get out of my cell*nor of his. And then I was trying to imagine what would happen to him after he had gone down the little passage and through the door; and then I saw myself going the same way, and facing a crowd of strangers, and being strapped in a big ugly chair, and feeling the wet sponge on my leg, and— O, well, I’m trying to forget all that now, but I wish I was clever enough to make readers feel what it is to be in the death- house and have that picture in front of you day and night. That 10 days worked on me so that at the end I felt like screaming when a keeper coughed. I did get one shake-hands with Braun, though, and it did me {t was the} day I was taken out for my weekly bath | and shave. I just darted over to his door! and he stuck his hand out between the bars. and 1 gave it a shake with a ‘“‘Good-by, old fellow’’—and that was all. The others did ' the same thing on their bathing days. It | seemed to do us all good, and the keepers | didn’t pretend to notice. The last night made me choke, for I could hear Braun praying just like a lit- tle child, and now and again the voice of the priest praying with him.

It wouldn't be so bad if people in the prison wore leather shoes, but they wear—the prisoners, too slippers with felt soles. From behind my curtain I couldn't hear much but the breathing of a few people, and the wn- locking of Braun's door, and a slight swish of ieit shoes on the stones. But Braun called out in a loud voice: “Good-by, boys!" And “Good-by!"" echoed from every cell. Phen a Slight shuffling of feet. a choking noise of a man clearing: his throat. the clang of the door at the end of the Httle passage, and—well, the curtains were pulled back, but we never saw Braun again. Who next? For a whole day that guestion had me by the throat. I suppose {it both- ered the others, too, for at length Fritz Meyer roared out: “O, let's have a game of checkers, or I'll bang my head against the wall'"’ And now I'l! tell you how we played our only game. The two players each make a checker board with pencil and paper and number the squares. By each man in turn calling out his move to the other it is pos- sible to play the game through. It needs more thought than checkers played in the ordinary way; but the keepers say that exercise is good for a condemned man's brain There seems to be more clriosity about Mr. Molineux than anybody else in the death-house. He seems to be a very affable gentleman, but finds more pleasure in his own company than other people's.

Each man has his own thoughts, and they are frightful. It’s al- i Ways: “Who next?’’ We hadn't long recovered from the shock of Braun's going when the warden dropped in again with bad news. We could always tell by his face, and everyone would shake till he saw what cell he was bound for. Grief When Led to Execution. This time there were two to go—Lewis Pullerson and Michael McDonald. Two hands to shake, two ‘‘good-bys” to be said. When the curtains were pulled up that morning after the shuffling of feet had died away, I was as weak as a kitten. I don’t think any of us touched breakfast that morning. What made it seem cruel was that none of these men seemed like murderers. They were just ordinary men, like you meet in the street, with feelings like anybody else, in good health, capable of being glad or sorry. I knew some of them had done cruel and bloody things, but that did not make me feel any the less sorry to see them led away to be slaughtered in cold blood like cattle froin a pen. But nobody would understand those feel- ings unless they had lived in the death- house. Sleeping and reading, reading and sleep- ing—these were the favorite ways of killing time. We could sleep all we wanted to and get all the books we liked from the prison library. Sleeping and reading are both good ways of forgeting—especially sleeping. I trained myself to sleep sometimes as much as 15 hours a day, After Pullerson and McDonald left us there were no departures until Feb. 26, this year, when Antonio Ferraro went down the passage of death and was never seen again. rhree months later Fritz Meyer followed him. That was a grand event. Meyer had longer in the death-house than anv- body else. He was a man of strong charac- ter and had amiable qua ities.

Leaning against Ollie's horsé, to the rear, stood Frank Harris, who had bought swing tickets for the girls. Les Dooley had approached when which he had bought. “IT want you to ride with me,"’ Dooley said to his wife Mrs. Dooley quoted above. Five minutes then made the remark later Frank Harris was the | Swing stopped, with a package of tickets |; lying in some underbrush a hundred yards | away, with a Dooley bullet in his side and another in his left arm.

Les Dooley was on horseback, chasing Bill Harris, also mounted, down the hill, firing at Bill from a Winchester rifle as rapidly as he could pump the weapon. Charlie Harris was running for dear life; for life is dear to a boy on the farm, only 17 years old. Old man Dooley was dead a few feet from the swing, getruck down by two of Wes’ arris’ bullets. John Dooley, shot twice by Wes Harris, was lying near his dead father. John's twin brother, Joe, and the baby of the family, Bill Dooley, were firing at Harrises in every direction. Bill Dooley, with a revolver in each hand, seeing no more live Harris boys for targets, was shooting bullets into the corpse of Wes Harris and stamping the upturned face, while the aged mother of the dead man sat by, fanning files from the blood-smeared features.

The 190 or more picnickers were run ning wildly about the grove, tumbling into the deep ditch at one side, hiding behind lemonade stands and farm wagons, or standing awe-struck in their tracks, frozen with fright, trying to comprehend startlingly sudden turn of affairs which had transformed the peaceful picnic into a bloody battle ground, with armed men shooting and swearing, running and rough riding, retreating and cross firing—and over all the pall of firearm smoke and the ghastly consciousness of sudden and vio- lent death.

That they had educated their trigger fingers was shown by the result of » the feud culmination at the village of Doe Run two weeks ago, Saturday, Aug. 4. Harrises are not Kentuckians, but y also have learned how to shoot. Ac- cording to the evidence thus far adduced, the only Harris who was armed at the time of the battle was Wes, who killed old man Dooley and wounded John Dooley before the remaining Doo eys killed him. But each of the Harris boys is handy with the trigger, and the four who remain alive have remarked that if they had taken their jistols to the picnic there wou.d be fewer Jooleys in jail at Farmington. “I reckon it's well enough that we didn’t have our guns,” said: Frank Harris, “for if we'd had ‘em we would now probably be where the three Dooley boys are, boarding | with Sheriff Jeff Highley. We got shot up considerable, but I reckon that beats being in jail with a murder trial hanging over us. ° “Poor Wes ts in his grave, but he put up a plucky fight.

The Dooleys and the Harrises lived on ad- joining farms two miles from Doe Run. The trouble between the two families began about four years ago, when Jim Harris purchased a farm tenanted by the Dooleys. Jim moved his family and furniture to the farmhouse and the Dooleys refused to give penecones lie was compelled to unload iis goods outside the gate and shelter his family with a neighbor until the Dooleys moved out. Naturally this episode created had feel- ing between the two families. Jim Harris’ brothers resented it and joined him in op- position to the Dooleys. After the Dooleys bought the adjoining farm there were frequent occasions of dif- ficulty between the familles. The neigh- borhood is rife with stories of Dooley- Harris differences. One of the Harris boys was charged with stealing a set of harness. Old man Dooley and one ef his boys testified against the Harris. This fanned the feud. John Dooley, who is a graduate of the Baptist College at Farmington, has taught country Schools in his neighborhood for several winters. Charlie Harris was one of his pupils. One day Schoolmaster Dooley whipped the Harris boy for an iIn- fraction of the school rules The feud augmented with every stroke of the birch. The Dooleys had some dogs that at- tacked dhe Harris sheep. The Harrises shot the Dooley dogs. Then the Dooleys shot some Harris dogs to get even. It was good gun practice on beth sides. And it as- sisted the growth of the feud. Four weeks ago Jim Harris attended a picnic at Flat river. The same steam swing was steaming and swinging there. as at Doe Run, two weeks later.

Pretty Ollie Swinford’s Part. A year ago Ollie Swinford was the belle the community. She was a farmer's daughter, living near the Harrises and the Dooleys. She wag tall and plump. Her dark hair fell in fetching ringlets about her ears. Her black eyes were able to look love to eyes that spake again. Her hands were small and dainty, despite the fact that they were accustomed to doing much of the farm house work... Her feet, which frequently were bare as she tripped about the cow pasture, milking the cows, pluck- ing dandelions and daisies with which to deck her raven tresses, were like those which the poet described. Like little mice they stole in and out. Ollie was just 16. She was courted by all boys in the neighborhood. All Plat River Valley was eager to do homage to the pretty farmer's daughter, the flower of the vailey. She could ride horseback with the boidest of them. She could fish in the mountain streams and catch lovers while pulled out black bass, Her parents, honest farmer folk, were on They exchanged visits with both the Dooleys and the Harrises. They made no objection when a Dooley boy or a Harris boy call to escort Ollie to a party or a picnic. The Swinfords had nothing to do with the feud, a4 a A r s, t+ 0 LZ. Be 7 5 LA Tet ~ “ee 7 Frank Harris was 21, auburn-haired and handsome. His pink mustache was the pride of his heart. He had fine white teeth, and when he smiled it was more than the average gir! could do to with- stand his winning ways. Frank and Ol- lie were firm friends. They lked each other—there was no concealing that. The little god of love, in duplicate, perched on the shoulders of each and shot his arrows in a merry cross-fire until each young heart was pricked. Love's young dream was budding rap- idly, when gruesome tragedy intervened, unspeakable misfortune overtook the laugh- ing, doving girl, and the dream was rudely shattered. Ollie did not favor the advances of Bill Dooley, who was 19 years old and not he handsome as Frank Harris. Bill was fo of the girl, who shunned him. He hated Frank, not alone becasise of the feud, but | because Frank was winning Olile. The 20th of lagt August was the day when Ollie’s sorrows overtook her. She had gone on an errand to a neighbor’a. Comine homeward by a short cut through the woods she was singing merrily, thinke ing of young Harris and the next m4 they were to meet. Suddenly Bill Dooley confronted her, his dark, plerctng eyes mad with passion. Here in Doe Run it Its asserted that the Doolevs have Indian blood tn thelr veina. | Bill Dooley has the eyes and the stealthy tread of an Indian. Prosecuting Attorney Hensley, who caused an indictment to be Issued against Bill, tells what mae in the lonely woods. Ollie also told it. She went home and took to her bed. Farmer Swinford heard her story and communicated with the prosecuting attorney. Sheriff Jeff Highe- ley rode out to the Dooley farm to arrest Bill for criminal assault. Bill met hig ‘with a Winchester and dared him to ad- vance, But the Dooley boy was taken, placed under a bond of $2000 and released to await his trial on the serious charge. Then Bill went to the Indian Territory and me a cowboy. Les Dooley, two years older than Bill, soon followed him to the Territory. There the boys advanced themselves in pistol yractice. Last November Les came back to Doe Run. He had been a model youth, and the Swinfords thought well of him. The fact that one Dooley had wronged them was no reason why they should become © party to the feud or make it a three-pronged affair. Les Dooley was received in the Swinford household.

When the new City Hospital is finished— aid this is not the iridescent dream it was once considered—St. Louis will have the finest institution of its kind in the West, and one which will rank among the great hospitals of the world. People who passed by the old hospital ruins yesterday and looked, as their habit fs, to see if any more of the picturesque pile had been carried away, saw a party of men working with rods, signaling ap- puratus and tridents. Their movements excited curiosity. Few knew that they were the street depart- ment corps of surveyors. whose services had been lent for the purpose of securing an accurate topographical map of the grounds, and that they were doing the first actual outdoor work on the new hospital. While the surveyors are putting the premises on paper in terms of degrees, minutes and seconds, Building Commission- er Longfellow is preparing to appoint the superintendent of construction and the draftsmen who are to work under his Supervision in drawing up plans for the buildings. These appointments, he says, wili be in the hands of the president of the Board of Public Improvements by the time the law goes into effect next Saturday. As with the actual construction of the building so in the preliminary plans and drawings the foundations Will come first and the superstructures afterward. contracts are let nothing will be done to- ward the removal of the debris. for this is that the removal is enforced in the contract with the construction of the buildings and the value of the building material contained in the wreck is expected to slightly reduce the figures of the con- tractors who bid for the work. Snow is likely to fall on the hospital site before a real start is made with brick and mortar. Even when the first few buildings have been completed it will be necessary ty» refer to the general plans of the build- ings to find the place in which some of the most important parts of the institution will stand. The first buildings to be put up will be the laundry, kitchen and boiler house, all ad- joining Carroll street; the isolation ward, on the Grattan street side, and the oc- tagonal ward, which is to be the center of the whole scheme of buildings. The administration buiding, the dispen- sary building, the emergency ward and nearly all of the pavilions which will make Until | The reason | the completed structure a thoroughly mod- ern hospital, are as yet unprovided for eith- er by ordinance or in the city treasury. The sum of $258,000, now in the hospital fund, will suffice to make a start, but the problem of completing the whole group of buildings is one still to be solved by the financiers of the city government. Comp- troller Sturgeon had hoped to secure $758,000 for the purpose by selling Union Market, but the House of Delegates killed this plan. He still believes the solution of the hospital problem is to be found in this way, and in- tends to inquire whether the persons who recently made the offer for the market prop- erty stili wish to purchase it. If they do, Mr. Sturgeon will again introduce an ordi- nance providing for the sale. The magnificent Johns Hopkins hospital at Baltimore is the institution after which the St. Louis hospital has been most closely modeled. Points have been secured, how- ever, from similar’ edifices in European cities, and the new St. Louis hospital will embody the best that is Known in architec- ture and Sanitary appliances. The preparation of ordinances for the gov- ernment and control of the new hospital still remnains to be attended to. The last attempt to get a bill of this sort passed was a failure, as many physicians opposed the {plans for a medical board of control.

Frank said he would take care of us. “Il am afraid to go out since that terrible affair. 1 know the Dooley boys are in jall, but I won't go to town because I am afraid.’’ Ollie’'s voice was low and musical. She -—— talked timidly and modestly, showing pret-. ty teeth when once she smiled sadly at the recital of ‘some pleasant recollection of the old days before her sorrows came. Since Ollie went back to her parents, rank Harris had been paying her marked attention. Gradually she was becoming her old self again, and once more the future began to look roseate. Les Dooley had ap- plied for a divorce. Frank Harris was still unmarried. Ollie was only 17. Jt was not too late for the resumption of love's young dream. The duplicate Cupid was priming his arrows anew. But fate—or was it fortune ?—inter- vened again. CHAPTER V. — The Warning. Doe Run is one of southeast Missouri's | typical mining towns. The great lead belt of the Flat River Valley runs down hither, and huge concentrating mills furnish the excuse for this town’s being. There is one long street, a country road, which, byY slow degrees dur- ing the past 15 vears, has been converted into the main street of a town. The houses @re nearly all of frame, with spacious yards and plenty of vacant lots. Here @nd there a general store or a saloon is sandwiched between two dwellings. At the Seneral store one may buy anything from a threshing machine to a paper of pins, or trom a stick of candy to a barrel of dried apples. straggling | At the edge of town, near the Missi8sippi | River & Bonne Terre railroad, which ter- Minates here, there is a pretty grove oak trees. The ground slants down to the Gravel road leading tc Farmington, five miles away. Between the road and the grove_is a dry ditch twenty feet wide and ten feet deep, fringed wit’ underbrush on the groveward side. It is a natural trenchment, and would tv hailed with de- ight by the Filipinos closely pursued by sanevolent assimilators. Across the road is a level tract which.is used as a baseball ground.

The day of the citizens’ picnic arrived. It was bright and balmy. Hundreds of towns- people and farmfolk had anticipated that day with keen delight. It meant a brief vacation from the cares of life. For weeks huge posters, printed at Farmington and tacked to trees and fences, had announced that Aug. 4 was to be a gala day at Doe Run. Among the attractions promised, and the chief thereof, was the big steam swing. This was what city folk would call a merry-go-round. It was so built that it could be taken apart and hauled from place to place. It had done duty at other picnics in St. Francois County, and some of the Doe Run young people already had traveled many miles to enjoy the sensation of be- coming seasick for 5 cents. Such was the interest steam swing that the picnic, when it arrived, circus-like, and was being set up, many gathered around it and watched the men drive the stakes and put the framework together, securing the gaily painted dummy horses in place. Les -Booley was there. Floyd Dees, neighbor’s boy, was nearby. “Have you seen my wife?’ quired of Dees. “Yes: she’s up at the old man’s,” ing Farmer Swinford. ‘Are you to the picnic, Les?’ “Sure I am,’’ Les replied. ‘I’m coming to the picnic, going to get drunk and have a high time.’ Dooley added something about the Har- rises, and Dees went to Elvins and saw Jim Harris. “Are you going to the picnic tomorrow, Jim?” he asked. “Of course,’ said Jim. Why not?’ “Well, Jim, I saw Les Dooley tonight, and I just thought I'd tell you that if you go you'd better watch out.” “TI reckon the Harrises know how to take care of themselves,’’ remarked Jim. ‘So long, Floyd.”’ CHAPTER VI. The Battle. It was the biggest day of the year. All Doe Run turned out. Delegations from taken in the night before the a ’ Dooley in- mean- coming “We're all going. Bonne Terre, Farmington, Flat River, El- | vins and other towns were on hand. For miles around every farmer and fis family came in to enjoy the day. The steam swing was doing a rush bus- iness. By 11 o'clock the keepers of the lunch stand and the lemonade and pop- corn emporium farther down the hill were beginning to think that the picnickers would spend all their money for swing tickets and have nothing left for refreshments. Frank Harris had tregted Ollie Dooley and Effie Blankenship to several swings around the circle and still had tickets left. Jim, Wes and Charlie Harris were stand- ing by watching the fun. Thirty feet away. Slightly up the hill, stood old man Doo.ey and his four sons. They had come in py wagon and horseback. In the wagon, which stood between the Dooley group and the lemonade .tand, was some loose hay covered with a quilt. Un- der the hay, known only to the Dooleys, was a Winchester rifle, with cartridye belts and ammunition for a siege. Some of the Dooley boys had hitched their saddle horses under the trees to the rear Jack Matkins and Wes Harris engaged in conversation near the group of Dovoic ys. Les Dooley had gone to the ticket booth and purchased tickets determined to have his wife ride with him instead of with Frank Harris. “I hear you've been marked Wes H did you catch” “Not a fox,’’ Matkins replied. “You're no account. inst like the Her- rises," Wes said, jocularly. ‘“‘But I’m the best man for my Sige at -the jicnic. This remark was heard by the Dooleys. Witnesses of the subsequent tell confilcting stories of what ehasing foxes?" re- arris to Matkins. How many that moment. First came reports from two pistols, fol- lowed by a louder report, supposed to be that of a big six-shooter. “Don't do that!’ old man De to have cried. “Don't do that! The Harris faction claims that Wes Harris backed away, blood streaming from his face, and pulled a big revolver from his poets. The weapon \as wrapped in a mndkerchief. Harris unwra ined it, heid the revolver in both hands, and began firing at the Dooleys. Old man Dooley fell. Then John Dooley dropped. Joe, Les and Bill Dooley whi out revolvers and opened fire on the Stain. rises. Frank and Jim Harris ran. Bullets from Dooley pistols brought both down. but they arose and ran on, the Dooleys still firing. Wes Harris kept backing down hill, fring rapidly. He stopped a moment to eect empty shells and reload. Another Dooley bullet hit him, and he took refuge behind a huge oak tree at the lemonade stand. Joe Dooley chased the other Harrises. Les and Kill ran down the hill, cross-firing at Wes Harris, As they passed their wagon Oley is sabd ; Bn ths, Perr e ees “7 a Te te » af = » hw ie ae aa a! ¥, 2 apes Saree cS " TES re 4 3 ee 2 yaaa * Se ey, +e cae me — Dia > aha Les Dooley took the Winchester from the hay. He and Bill stopped behind a water wagon 15 feet from Wes Harris’ tree. For five minutes the opposing forces, the two Dooleys and the one Harris, Kept up a hot fire from these positions. Wes Harris reached around the tree, still holding his weapon in both hands, to steady it, and fired repeatedly at the Dooleys behind the wagon. A Dooley bullet struck his pistol, tore off one side of the handle and wounded his thumb. Harris held to it with a firm grip. Reaching around the tree to get another shot he was struck in the head by a ball from the Winchester, which cut a notch in the bark of the tree before it entered his brain, killing him. Harris fell, seven ghastly wounds attesting the nerve with which he had fought for his life. ' Young Charlie Harris was then off the grounds. He declared that two Dooleys emptied their revolvers at him as he ran. There was a lull in the proceedings, no mor\ Harrises being in sight. At this point Bill Harris, who had not heard the shooting, rode up on horseback, with an ice cream bucket on his arm. Les ‘Dooley espied him. | Dooley leaped astride his horse and was after the new Harris arrival in an instant. Bill heard many voices warning him to re- 'treat and he turned his horse and started down the hill. Les Dooley pursued, firing | his Winchester like clockwork. Bullets whistled about Bill's ears. horse stupped at the edge of the Dooley was closing in. There was a ‘frail footbridge, built for the picnic, span- ning the ditch.

But i I had just had my six-shooter that I left home it would have been a different sort stag party, and don’t you ever forget it.” Ilarris took refuge in a house and Dooley lost the scent, though he rode through town hell-to-split, searching everywhere for the only ably :odied Harris left, not counting the boy Cnarlfe.

D. Reed, who 1s acting building commissioner during the absence of Mr. Ittner in Europe, said to the Post-Dispatch yesterday: “Plans have been drawn for a new school of 20 rooms, to be called the Wyman, and to located on Theresa avenue, between Eads avenue and Henrietta street, and bids will considered by November. The building of this school will relieve what- ever congestion may remain in the Hodgen and Chouteau schools. “It is not anticipated that an oversupply of pupils in any schools during the coming term. to be on the safe side for the 1901 term, plans are already in preparation for the erection of a new school somewhere in the district between Park avenue and Arsenal street and west of Grand avenue and also in the Oak Hill district, south of Arsenal street, where they wilil certainly be re- quired if the present remarkable increase of population continues. “Not all the work of the building depart- ment of the school board is being confined to new buildings and additions this year. For instance, in accordance with the new policy of the department of instruction in- augurated last year, the seating of the schools is being changed as rapidly as pos- sible, single seats being substituted for the long-used double seats. The view of the superintendent and his principals is that the single seat individualizes the pupil to his benefit, in itself is an influence toward decorum and at the same time enables the teacher to maintain better discipline. ‘All the new schools and the additions are fitted with these single seats, and, be- side, about 10,000 of the old double seats in other schools will be changed. “The opening of the new term will find every school with an entirely new and modern system of heating and ventilation, be be there will be of the other In order the Winchester bullet cleft his skull. ran to her dead boy, moaning and sobbing, and fanned his face.

The Surrender. For the rest of that day the three Doo- leys ran the town. Doe Qun, though it has a population of 1500, is not incorporated, owing to the fact that the land belongs to mining corporations which are opposed to the place having a government of its own. Consequently there is no officer of the law except the township constable, and one small constable against all manner of Doo- leys did not cut much of a figure. After the last Harris was disposed of the Dooley boys. Joe, Les and Biil, loaded their dead father into the farm wagon, to- gether with their brother John. desperately wounded and paralyzed from the hips down. They drove to a drug store, lifted John out and took him inside for surgical attention. They turned their father’s body over to an undertaker, mounted their horses, still armed to the teeth, and looked for more Harrises. Nearly everybody remained indoors, but the Dooleys assured those whom they met that they would harm no one but a Harris. Up in Farmington Sheriff Highley or- ganized a posse of 40 men to come to Doe tun and capture the Dooleys. But before the posse started down the gravel road Representative Bradley of this county had conferred with the Dooley boys and advised them to give themselves up.

Tonight's program closed the fifth day of the ten-day session. One of the principal features of the day was the grand concert given tonight by Prof. Hulett's orchestra of Kansas City. Polk Miller, the impersonator. is on the program for Monday and Tuesday nights. | This meeting is one of the most successful in the history of the encampment.

To cure headache effectively the cause must be removed. The system must be cleaned out. The hard, discarded matter in the bowels must be disposed of, ABBEY’S EFFERVESCENT SALT does this. It docs it mildly and thoroughly. It relieves the pressure of the blood upon the brain. This cures the headache. It keeps the bowels and liver active. This gives good digestion and good blood; and prevents other headaches. The regular use of Abbey’s Salt will put you on the road to good health and will keep you there. If a bottle of Abbey’s Salt prebents only one attack of headache, its cost is repaid with interest. i ae M —————— Sold by most druggists, or sent by mail. 25c., 50c. and $1 per bottle.

—- ~~ SUNDAY MORNING- ST. a ae CHRISTIAN CHURCHES MAY CONSOLIBATE AND RECALL REV. TYRREL Oentral and Mount Cabanne Congregations Preparing to Unite and Build a NewChurchin the West End. A movement fs !n_progress to consolidate two of the latgest Christian churches in this city, the Central, at Grand and Fin- ney avenues, and the Mount Cabanne, at King’s highway and Morgan. Included in the consolidation scheme is the return to St. Louis of Rev. Frank G. Tyrrel, former pastor of the Central, who has been in Chicago during the past year, and the building of a large new church in the West End. . The Mount Cabanne Church recently lost its pastor, Rev. D. R. Dungan, who has become president of the Christian College at Canton, Mo., but who has promised to return to St. Louis each Sunday during the month of September and fill his former pulpit here. The congregation is not so Jjarge in numbers as it is in wealth and influence. | »Rev. Baxter Waters, pastor of the Cen- tral Church, resigned a month ago, and is now absent on a month’s vacation, under an agreement to return and fill his pulpit during September. Thus on the ist_of October the two con- gregations will bé in a position to ‘pool their issucs’’ and complete the arrange- ments for the return of Rev. Tyrrel to preside over both churches. It vss understood when Mr. Tyrrel went! to Chicago that he consented to go away from St. Louis because he could not per- suade his congregation to rebuild. 00. many of them desired to wait a year or’ REV. FRANK G. TYRREL. two longer and move farther west. He Was more than 10 years pastor of Central Church and achieved distinction through- out the West as a fearless, eloquent and an advanced minister of his denomination. His return to St. Louis would be welcomed by more persons than those merely of the Chrisian faith. Two previous efforts have been made to unite the First and Central Christian Churches, but these failed. There were too many conflicting interests and “old grudges,’ for the Central was an offshoot from the First many years ago. The proposition to unite the Central and the Mount Cabanne gives promise of be- ing more successful. The consolidation, if effected, will largely increase the member- ship of the First, also, as the western move of the Central will give to the First a wider field in that portion of the city. — x MM AVL DRE D,STOLLEP i 3 -\ W177 IRYY/TT Rag Can It has been over a dozen years since Hienry E. Dixey first produced ‘‘Adonis’’ and began a run that carried him through half a dozen seasons. His appearance this afternoon and this week at Delmar Gar- den in his famous part in ‘‘Adonis’’ will doubtless draw the biggest attendance the new garden has known this season. New mountings have been made for the pro- duction, and the principals and chorus have been constant!y rehearsed. At most of the rehearsals Mr. Dixey has given his personal supervision. Mr. Clark will be the ‘‘polished villain,’ Mr. Sloan will be the watchful father, Mr. Begley will play the famous ‘‘merry little mountain maid,” Miss Ethel Jackson will be Artea, Miss Ruth White will be Talamea, and Misses Blow, Thompson, Ashmore, Cooley and Ro and Messrs. Browning Wade, Abra- hams, and the other principals will be in the important roles. The chorus will have much work to do and the entire production will be a tuneful and amusing summer night’s entertainment. After ‘“‘Adonis” will of the ‘‘Lady Slavey.” High-class vaudeville will continue as the attraction aft the Suburban Garden. An entire change of bill is announced for to- day. The Nawns, or “the Funny Nawns,”’ as they are generally known, have their names in the largest type and enjoy other stellar honors. Second on the bill is Char- ley Wayne, re-engaged from last week. Flatt and Sutherland have a pleasing spe- clalty composed of songs dances and character impersonation. The Van Aukens, horizontal kar artists, and Maria and An- geline Danie, juvenile dancers and gym- Masts, also have good places on the bill. come a revival At Uhrig’s Cave, commencing tonight and continuing for one week, including the matinee Saturday, the Spencer Opera Com- pany will present a triple bill, consisting of Offenbach’s one-act operatte, ‘The Rose of Auvergne,’ with Grace Van Studdiford as FMleurette, Martin ‘Pache, Alpnonse: WiIl- liam Wade Hinshaw, Pierre—“‘Charityv Be- gins at Home,’’ Cellier's one-act success, Grace Van Studdiford as Susan.

It affects the bowels because white bread is nearly all starch, and starch is digested in the in- testines, not in the stomach proper. Up under the shell of the wheat berry, Na- ture has provided a curious deposit which is turned into diastase when it is subjected to the saliva and to the pancreatic juices in the human intestines. This diastase is absolutely necessary to digest starch and turn it into grape sugar, which is the next form; but that part of the wheat berry makes dark flour, and the modern miller cannot readily sel] dark flour, so nature's valuable digestor is thrown out and the human system must handle the starch as best it can, without the help that Nature intended. Small wonder that appendicitis, perit- Onitis, constipation, and all sorts of trou- ble exist, when we go so contrary to Na- ture’s law. The food experts that per- fected Grape-Nuts Food, knowing these facts, made use, in their experiments, of the entire wheat and barley, including all the parts, and subjected them to moisture, and long continued warmth, which allows time and the proper conditions for devel- oping the diastase, outside of the human body. - In this way the starchy part is trans- formed into grape sugar in a perfectly natural manner, without the use of chem- icals or any outside ingredients. The little sparkling crystals of grape sugar can be seen on the pieces of Grape-Nuts. This food therefore is naturally predi- gested and its Ase in place of bread will quickly correct the troubles that have been brought about by the too free use of starch in the food, and that is very com- mon in the human race today. The effect of eating Grape-Nuts ten days or two weeks, and the discontinu- ance of ordinary white bread. is very marked. The user will gain rapidly in strength and physical and mental health. ; PG a ‘plant with which the theater was Joe; Martin Pache, Goringe; William Wade Hinshaw as Bumpus and the third act of Flotow’s beautiful romantic opera, with Grace Van Studdiford as Martha, Gertrude Lodge, Nancy; Martin Pache, Lionel, and William Wade Hinshaw as Plunkett. ; This week's bill at Forest Park High- lands is noted for variety of style. The Mouliere sisters will do some astonishing athletic work. They are the only lady double-somersaulters in the world. Jose- phine Gassman has new duties and a fresh crop of pickaninnies. The Newsboys’ Quar- tette, for the last two seasons with Hyde's shows, has gone back into vaudeville, and among their first appearance is that of the Highlands. Howard's pontes like to play for the little ones. Rudolph and Carola are clever European equilibrists. Miss Murphy and Papinta will continue. The attraction at Koerner’s Garden this week will be the Imperial Stock Company in “‘Camille.”” During the past week the company was seen in comedy, the play being ‘‘A Business Transaction,’’ by C. H. Hager, and this was its first venture. It may be said in passing that Mr. Hager ha written a play that has in it the element of success. Unfortunately, the company producing it is not a comedy company, and Mr. Freeman came mighty near turning it into a tragedy. If the Imperial company wants to make a success it will have to stick to plays in which Miss Winston is given the leading role. Mannion’s Park will open Sunday mat- inee with the best bill it has produced this season. Among the best Known are: The Donovans, Toney and Flo Vernon, as ‘‘Lizva Jane and Stump,” an original act, replete witn novel ideas; Richie and Richie, acro- batic comedians; Fannie Miller, the new Amelia Glover; the Earles, illustrated songs; the Cullenbines, juvenile artists of the first class. Concluding the perform- ance is the Donovans’ new one-act comedy entitled ‘Irish Justice,’’ produced by the entire company.

While the hot weather was late in starting in and has been break- ing some of the records lately, Manager Garen says he will compete with all out of doors. He has reinforced the iced air equipped several years ago, and has also added to the numté@r of electric fans which keep the air in circulation. The attraction for the open- ing will be “‘The Hottest Coon in Dixie,”’ the latest of the plantation plays of the south. While the features are the songs and dances and the natural comedy of the colered people of the south, the introduction of these is told in an interesting story writ- ten in two acts and three scenes. The musi- cal numbers are 35, and cover not only the ditties of the plantation but the most popu- iar of selection from the grand and comic operas. The dances and marches are novel, and the costuming of these is said to be on a scale equal to the highest class of the extravanganzas. The company is one of over % principals, among whom are such well Known entertainers as Miss Neale G. Hawkins, William H. Proctor, Bob Kelly, Fred T. Carey and the Grundies. Beginning with the matinee of Sunday, Aug. 26, at Havlin’s, Manager Garen wil! have “‘We Uns of Tennessee,’ the latest of the plays of the south of the time of the Civil War. Barnum rs The Standard will open for the season with a matinee this afternoon, the attrac- tion being Fred Irwin's big show. The entertainment presented by this company commences with a 30 minute burletta, after which an olio of high class specialty presented and terminates with an entirely new and original burlesque’ interspersed with the latest songs and music. is ' : In the selection of the new name of the Imperial there will be no lack of material. The offer of Mr. Havlin of a season ticket to the one suggesting the most appropriate name has set a number of brietht minds to work, and the mail of Manager Garen at Havlin’s. who receives the suggestions, has been burdened with them every day during the past week. “The Dairy Farm,"’ which will open at the Olympic Sept. 9, is said to be the most realistic play that has been presented to American theater-goers in years it will be seen here with all of the original scen- ery and costumes, and will be staged in ex- actly the same manner as it was during its runs in New York. Manager Caren ts making headway in the decoration of the Grand Opera-house, and will have that theater open with the matinee of Sunday, Sept. 2. The opening play will be “A Stranger in a Strange Land,.”’ one of the new plays of the season, and said to be one of the best of the comedy-dramas of recent years. ‘Tike a Girl That I Used to Know” {s the latest musical composition by Ollie J.

AMIGOS ARE NOT AMIGOS. NATIVES WHO WERE THOUGHT TO BE FRIENDS RISE IN ARMS. Mystic Order of Three “Ks’’ Not Gen- , erally Known, but Proofs of Its Existence Are Plentiful. Special Correspondence of the Post-Dispatch. LUZON, P. I., June 15.—That the “‘trusty”’ native is no longer to be trusted has become evident, and a recent order was issued that no soldier should go a distance greater than 200 yards from his quarters without his arms and his ammunition. It has come to light that the cunning Filipino had been un- derestimated, and that the existence of a secret society in and about Mani.a sworn to exterminate the armed foreigner was not only a fact but an active one. The secret organ was discovered among the Filipinos in the fleld as well as among those who were not under arms, but who were masquerading among the _ various headquarters and bases of supplies as “‘ami- gos. The organization, strangely enough, bears the name of a once noted band in the United States. The letter ‘“‘K,’’ twice repeated, stands for the name of the order ‘‘K. K. K.,” each “K"’ representing a word, means that a secret order with hostility to the United States wields a power with thou- sands of ears to hear, thousands of eyes to see and thousands of hands to execute. Just what the triple ‘“K’”’ stands for fs a mystery to white men. The Filipino says he does not know, and if he does, he guards the secret well. But, like the Chinaman, the Filipino can be very ignorant on occa- sion. To Attack the Garrisons. This much, however, {is known. The pur- pose of the organization is to attack sim- ultaneously the American garrisons on the island, with the hope of overthrowing the partly established government. At the time these supposed facts were learned it was found that the scattered and demor- alized Filipino forces in the field intended to keep clear of the American forces as much as possible, showing themselves only when it might be deemed necessary to do so in order to keep the Americans in the field. At the same time the Filipinos wanted to give the impression that they were vigor- ously keeping up the struggle, while in reality the great bulk of the rank and file of the army had buried their arms and were mingling with the Americans in the towns and villages, keeping posted on every movement made by the white man and every intention as well. It is known, however, that the mass of Filipinos are ignorant of the secret order, its signs and principles. for power in the government they would like to establish are leaders of the move- ment. They are, also, those who control the native slaves and reap a profit from them. Insist It Is More Active. Others, however, insist that the object of the “K. K. K.” is more active than the mere holding together of men for future fighting. They say that the order is for the present, and say they have reasons to believe that the organization was formed for the purpose of blowing up American garrisons simultaneously, thereby demoral- izing the men. Leading to this conclusion, probably, is the well-known fact that Fill- pinos, who have been captured of late, have found to be well supplied explosives. At various towns on the island large quantities have been seized. The Filipinos have expressed surprise at the existence of the dangerous material in their villages. Since the orders to the soldiers went into effec€ the men have been watchful, and the officers believe that their prompt action has saved many men from surprise. Several Attacks Were Made. The most recent Fillfpino exploit was the attack made upon a small garrison at the extreme northern end of the tsland of Luzon, in the province in which Lieuten- ant-Colonel Robert L.

The attendance last term averaged 62,499. The natural in- 3 per cent, will ensure an attendance next term of crease, 64,374. Last year seven portable schools were constructed and thirteen more wil! be ready for use when the session opens in September. Besides these additions have been made to several of the schoo] buildings, which will help to relieve the congestion. In education the supply should be in advance of the de- mand. In St. Louis the Department of Instruction is thought to be doing well if the number of pupils in a room is kept down to 50. This is far too many. Hygienically it is bad for the pupils, nervously it is bad for the teacher. Would not 25 be a more reasonable number of little ones for one tired woman to train up in the way they should go? Liberality in education should be the rule. Taxpayers who supinely permit the public revenues to be squandered by un- faithful servants at the City Hall are neglecting the interest of their own children. Extravagance and waste there imply niggardliness in school economy. ——__-_ -———_ —- e~ee- --—— The success of American exhibits at Paris will help along the boom of our World’s Fair of 1903. = = ._ ie THREE-CENT MILLIONAIRES Kingsmore, American postmaster at Dagupan. “the natives live on 3 cents a day and are They have the independent spirit of mil- Mr. 8S.

Thomas Nelscn Page’s rebuke to the preacher who told the ‘400 at Newport that 50,000,000 American citizens had their gaze fastened upon them and looked to them as ex- amplars, was vigorous and well deserved. As Mr. Page remarked, probably not 50,000 Americans care anything for the 400, though almost everybody reads of their “doings’’ with an amused interest. The 400 are not important. They are pretty much like other people, good, bad and indifferent. Their special infirmities are due to the wealth which they don’t quite Know what to do with. While they are making up their minds how to spend it wisely they put in the time spending it foolishly. This is @ great bore anid the poor things are not to be blamed if they sometimes make themselves ridiculous. If they had something useful to do they would not so often fall into follies like the “baby parties’’ which were so very funny a year or two ago. The Rev. Mr. Hamilton shouldn't take his flock so seriously. Nobody else does. The average American doesn’t care to imitate their munners. They can go on killing time as best they may while the rest of the folks improve each shining hour, getting more happiness out of a minute of hard work or rational enjuyment than do the 400 in a day full of baby parties and Harry Lehr. it is evident that The New York Health Department is prosecuting milk dea}- ers who us~ injurious chemical preservatives.

The Chinese. on the other hand, will take it as a matter of course. It is one of the sign-manuals of a paternal despotism such as they are accustomed to. It is also one of the inevitable incidents of such a form of government that this phrase, used as a threat with every edict, carries little weight. In spite of innumerable behead ings and other punishments, it seems that the Chinese do». respect imperial commands. The present Boxer rebellion is an example, on a large scale, of the way despotism is re- spected and obeyed. Should China ever rise to the rank of a self-governing people, there will be no need to add “Respect this’ to public proclamations. A people that makes its own laws will re- gpect what is done under them. i a When the acting governor of Illinois said ‘you shall.’’ Mrs. Waterhouse said “I won't.” The lady knows her own mind if she doen't know the law. >> rer WOMEN WORKERS, The French Labor Bureau has issued a bulletin which shows that one-third of the industrial product of that country is the work of women.

The gratifying intelligence comes from Paris that American exhibitors are carrying off prizes in great numbers. Already 1981 awards have been secured. Of these 220 were grand prizes, 486 gold medals, 583 silver medals, 422 bronze medals, 270 honorable mentions, besides a long list of minor honors. Especially gratifying is the fact that the Board of Educa- -" ———a tion of St. Louis carried off two prizes and Washington Uni- versity another. Moreover, the National Bureau of Educa- tion, organized and still administered by a St. Louls man, stands at the head of the list of exhibitors in that depart- ment. All this will arouse great expectations among our friends from over the sea who are looking forward to the St. Louis World’s Fair of 1903. We must not disappoint them. A community which does good school work surely has good streets; alas! A city whose school buildings are models for all the world, certainly has a city hospital which is a model of beauty, convenience and comfort. Shall it be so? Shall we maintain in St. Louis the reputation we have gained in Paris? Municipally we are out at the elbows and down at the heels. This should be corrected. We must spruce up.

M’KINLEY’S HAND. All Arrayed in Pretty Dresses, Some of Radiant Yellow, Red and Purple, With Quaint Beads. Special to the Post-Diapatch, WASHINGTON, Aug. 18.—Hundreds of pretty, dark-eyed young women from every part of Cuba shook hands with the Presi- dent this afternoon and were further honored by an introduction to Mrs. Mce- Kinley. The teachers were almost ill from fatigue. They had been traveling since 4¢ this morning and had had nothing but sand- wiches on the train for breakfast. Never- theless, they arrayed themselves in their prettiest dresses, many of them being bril- liant yellow and red and purple, with quaint beads and other adornments prominently displayed. They seemed to enjoy the re- ception immensely, but they were a little puzzled that they could not shake hands with Mrs. McKinley. The President ex- plained that Mrs. McKinley is not strong enough for the exertion, but as few of the Cuban maidens understood English they left the Blue Room very much at sea. The President seemed in excellent health and splendid spirits. He said something to each of his visitors and in many cases com- plimented the young women on their cour- age in making such a long journey and on their healthy Sppearanen Gen. John ilson, United States Army, presented the guests. He speaks Spanish and transiated many of the President's bril- liant speeches to the ladies. The Presi- dent made no formal address. Mrs. McKinley looked quite fatigued and it is apparent that she feels the warm weather and the traveling. She wore a dainty gown of white mull, built on white taffeta and trimmed with thread lace inser- tion and true lovers’ Knots of pale blue satin ribbon. Her tollet was pronounced one of the simplest but most effective seen here this summer. Mrs. Lyman Gage was the only cabinet | me mber'’s wife in attendance. She wore @ tigured rose silk with black lace on the corsage. The secretary of the treasury, the secretary of war, the secretary of the interior, the postmaster-general and the secre ony of y, ulture also assisted. Mrs, Rixey, Mrs. Charles G. Dawes and Mrs. Randt stood behind the receiving line. ge the reception the party went to Glen Echo Park, where a light collation was served. In the auditorium an address of welcome to the city was made by Com- missioner McFarland. The vice-president of the board of education, George H. Har- ris, also made a brief address. Returning from Glen Echo the party went to the Congressional Library. Sunday will be at the disposal of the visitors to spend as they may see fit. Many tInvitations have been extended to them by the Catholic churches of the city to attend divine services, and it is thought that a large number will pass part of the Sabbath in that manner. The ret’ #n to New York will be made tomorrow evening, beginning at 6 o'clock, when the first sec- tion of the train will leave that will ton- vey them to the metropolis. The second and third sections of the train will follow at intervals of ten minutes. TIME NOT TO BE EXTENDED Custom of Extension of Time to Con- tractors on Government Work Will Be Discontinued. VASHINGTON, D. C., Aug. 18.—-Mr. me, acewell, the comptroller of the treasury, case involving payments on a con- for purchasing and placing riprap stone in Jetties at Fort Jefferson Inlet, N. Y., lays down the principal that a gov- ernment contract may be extended as to time—that is, modified so as to relieve the contractor of penalties or damages—only the modification is for the interests government, being based upon a and valuable consideration. naturally follows, says “that if an extension of time be granted solely for the benefit of the con- tractor, without any new consideration flowing to the government, such extension will not relleve the contractor from any of the penalties. forfeitures or damages pro- vided for in the original contract. Continuing, the comptroller says: “As time is usually an important element considered by bidders in fixing the price for a plece of work It is fair to presume that bidders named a higher price for complet- ing the work covered by the contract than would have been named had it been under- stood by them that a longer time would be granted the successful bidder. To give such successful bidder additional time after the award had been made, and without an ade- quate consideration, is an undue advantage to the successful bidder, if not an actual fraud upon the other bidde rs and a dame age to the United States.’ For many years past the government fre- quently has extended the titve of contracts when no loss to the government would ree sult therefrom and especially when a strict compliance with the contract would be @ great hardship to the contractor. This prac- tice, under the comptroller’s ruling, will disc ontinue al the comp- troller. BABY NEEDED HER ATTENTION Novel Allegations in Damage Suit Against Railroad for Non-Delivery of Passengers.

SECOND PLACE FIGHT —_— IT PROMISES TO BE INTERESTING TO AT LEAST FIVE CLUBS. JOHN TT. BRUSH’S PLANS. Ien’t Likely That He Will Secure the Stars of the League for His next Season’s Team. During the week just closed a few changes have taken place in the race for the coveted Nationai ieague chambunting. The Pittsburg Pirates have passed the 2’.11l- lies and are now safely ensconced in sec- ond place. Thanks to St. Louis and other Western teams they are rapidly drawing away from that hard-hitting aggregation. Chicago, Boston and St. Louis are coming fast behind the Quakers, and it would rot be surprising to see all four of (hese teams change positions within the next fortnight. The Phillies will have a long stay on their home grounds, but before returning to their native heath, except for one day, they will have almost a two weeks’ stay in New York and Brooklyn, and they are apt to be shoved so deep into the mire that it will be impossible for thein to get out in time to finish in the money. The tight for the second and third post- tions promises to be most interesting and exciting, and either of these places are apt to be secured by one of five teams, name- Pittsburg, Philadelphia, Chicago, Bos- ton St. Louis, with Cincinnati having a possible chance. Pittsburg of course looks pounds the best just now for the place, to drop into the vernacular of the turf, but many strange things may happen in nine weeks, and either of the other clubs may nose them out of second money. There is no question as to which club will land the purse as‘Brooklyn’'s lead is now S0 great that it is almost impossible to head them. St. Louls is playing as fast ball as any team in the league. and will likely continue to do so for the balance of the season. The local boys will have a hard road to travel on their final eastern trip, but if they con- tinue playing at their present gait there is no reason why they shouldn't hold their own on the foreign diamonds. Four of the pitchers are in magnificent form and have been pitching the game of their lives during the past two weeks. The team is playing admirably behind them and the boys are hitting harder than other teams in the league, The topic that caused the most interest tn baseball circles during the past week was (ne published plans of John T. Brush, prest- “vent of the Cincinnati Club, in which that ntleman expressed his determination to and Capt. McGraw of St. Louis, Capt. Joe elley, Hugh Jennings and Willie Keeler of ‘rooKlyn, four of the greatest players in tae business, for his next season's team. 's plen is said to make McGraw captain i ul manager. the story on the face of it seems highly »probable to say the least. Ned Hanlon not releasing good men and Brush will ve a hard time getting McGraw from St. suis. Of course it is a known fact that Graw only signed a one-year contract en he came to St. Louis, but at that Mr. ison has first call on his services for xt year and until he waives that right John T. Brush cannot sign the brainy little vaseball general. Mr. Robison spent too much time and money to get McGraw to let him go without making an effort to hold him. Looking at the matter from another Standpoint it is hardly likely that Brush, though he is said to be a very rich man, would be willing to pay the tr: mendously big prices that would be asked for the men he is sa.d to want for his next season's team. ‘That Brooklyn trio would bring a fabulous sum and the price that would be asked for McGraw would cause an awful hole in his pocketbook. There may be some- thing in the story and there may not. At any rate it is ~ trifle early to be discussing next season's wappenings. That Capt. Johnny McGraw Is the person!- fication cf grit and gameness was pro-ed to the satisfaction of all the St. Louis fans during the past week.

He suffered further when Wolverton shoved his knee into Maes stomach, injuring him so that blood was drawn in large quantities. Mc- Graw, however, did not retire from his posi- tion at that time, but stayed in the game, and when an opportunity came to get back at the Phillies’ big third baseman he game- ly jumped into him in such a manner as to let Woiverton know that he was treading on dangerous ground when he deliberate:y te Ah . cripple an opposing piave and especlaily when. that player is J« r McGrane. 5 Piayer is Johnny Another week and the eastern teams will be on their wav home again.

AUGUST A VERY BUSY MONTH. = When September Comes the Heavy Weight Will Have to Get Out of New York. The next two weeks will be very busy Ones for the big prize fighters. All of them will try and get in a match before the new law prohibiting prize fights in and around New York goes into effect on Sept. 1. _The first fight will be that. between Sharkey and Fitsimmons, which is sched- uled for Aug. 25. On Wednesday, August 29, John L. Sulll- van will have his big benefit in the met- ropolis. On Thursday, Aug. 30, Jim Corbett and Kid McCoy will come together. It will be noticed that this shuts out Jim Jeffries, who has not been able to get on a match with any of the other big fellows, although he has tried awfully hard. With the uppearance on Sept. 1 of the new law which will prohibit prize fighting in and around New York, the big feilows will have to go elsewhere when they want to pull off a big match. In the very near future San Francisco and New Orleans, other cities will try to pick up the game where New York has left off, but they will have a hard time offering the fighters the money they havc received from recent big matches. Still, at one time. New Orleans gave big money to the big fellows, and who knows but that the Crescent City and other Western towns now that New York has been shut out will have a chance to do this same thing over again. To any one who has acquaintance with the fighting methods of Thomas J. Sharkey, it is amusing to hear of the sailor mapping out the style of battle he Intends waging against Fitzsimmons. Tom may formulate all kinds of plans, but the chances are he will leave them in his corner when he starts for the firing line. What he will do will de- pend entirely on what the other fellow does or tries to do. For instance. On Thursday last at Shar- Keyhurst, Sheepshead Bay, Tom and his sparring partner, Harry Peppers, donned the mittens for a little exercise. Tom O'Rourke was there to coach. ‘‘Now, don't try to hit him, Tom,” said O'Rourke. “Just let him lead at you and keep skipping around out of his way.’’ Sharkey nodded his head in assent. Bang went Pepper’s glove against the sailor's nose. Then, in the argot of the push, “‘it was all off.’ Sharkey want- ed to get even. It will be so when he faces Fitzsimmons. on the nasal button and Sharkey’s fighting machinery will begin whizzing and whirling. ‘‘Plans’’ will be fthrown to winds. Sharkey looks big. With his contest but ten nights away, he scales 190 pounds in hia Eymnasium rig. He presented a appearance many weeks prior to hia cham- pionship match with Jeffries. He was on edge then, and in the light of his long siege of training and the postponement necessi- tated by the accident to Jeffries’ arm. the wonder is that he landed in the ring in such superb condition. From present appearance the saltlor will toe the scratch fit to put up a smashing fight. against Fitzsimmons. O'Rourke, who will be with him every day from now on. purposes scaling him down gradually. By this process the maanger expects to send his man to the center as strong as a little : | ‘ tlie didate. Jim Jeffries has decided not to meet the winner of the Fitzsimmons-Sharkey ion Aug. 31, aS proposed, and it is not likely ithat the champion will be seen in the ring [again for at least eight or ten months. The champion notified his manager. Rra- 'dy. that he was not satisfied with the con- ditions demanded by Fitzsimmons and Sharkey for a meeting with him. and he did not wish to lose time training for an uncertainty. When Brady attended the meeting Tuesday he hoped to match his against Fitzsimmons if Sharkey faltled to come to terms, but as the pair accepted the Coney Island's offer of $25,000 this left gradv out of the game. “Jeffries is anxious to meet the winner of the coming mill between Sharkey and Fitzsimmons,” sald Brady last night, ‘but he does not want to meet a cripple or a man who has a chance for an excuse.” on protege While Corbett has been credited with be- ing a great second, the exhibition he gave ithe other night proved otherwise.

WORK ON NEW KINLOCH TRACK. lt Has Progressed Rapidly and the Opening Will Take Place on Sept. 1, Without Fail. There were many sensational happenings at the Fair Grounds during. the week, not the least of which was the ruling off of Jimp. Harry Snyder, Jimp’s trainer, has many good friends at the big track, and they in- sist that he was in no way to blame for the queer running of the horse in ques- tion. | They, in fact, blame the jockey for it all, but Jimp has been banished from the big | track, and there you are. | Of late Judges Price and Murphy have been watching things awfully ciose, and the few attempts at double dealing on the part of owners and jockeys has been nipped in the bud. Work on the new Kinloch Park Jockey Club's new course has been carried on very rapidly during the week. The work of building the racecourse prop- er has been pushed so vigorously that that part of the work will be completed before the middle of the week Rn. C. Pate, who has charge of the work at the new racecourse, telephoned the Post- | Dispatch last night: “We will be ready for business on Sept. 1. There will not be an hours postpone- ment We will have everything in n.ce shape by then. The hard work on the trac« proper will be finished by Monday night Then the work of smoothing and roiling it will be commenced. “The grand atand is going up fast, and work on the stables and fences is being pushed along rapidly.” The rews of the signing of Jack Chinn to start the horses at Kinloch Park was re ceived with genuine satisfaction by the Fair Grounds horsemen, and the general racing public Chinn's frie are legion, and they know him as about the best start- er in America. +) . nds Talking about the new racecourse, Prest- dent Joseph D.

Gale was his name and he started tn the first race on Thursday. When the bookies first chalked up their prices the bettirg ring was not even half filled, but those who were out early had a tip and they’ plunged as only plungers will, From the minute of the first Se to post time there was a steady play on Gale and from the ltcra- tive price of 15 to 1 he fell to the short odds of 3 to 2 Of all the good things that ever hap- pened Gale was the worst.

NEW YORK, Aug. 18.—But for the inter- est aroused by an analysis of the Brook- lyn Rapid Transit annual statement, pro- fessional operators would have had little material to influence prices. Although the report showed that a shade over 1 per cent was earned the stock, discussion ol specific items was unfavorable. For instance the high ratio of operating expenses and outstanding loans of $1,000,vWJ arouse comment, Decided pressure was ex- erted against the stock from the outset, an extreme loss of 2% being made, with the net loss reduced to 15% on purchases by the short interest. In Peoria Gas a fall of 2 per cent was without adequate ex- planation, but this stock also recovered somewhat in the final dealings. These movements were the chief features of the market, its narrowness being ac- centuated by the absence of London oper- ations, it being a holiday there, stocks were relatively better sustaincd than the generai run of speciaities. The publication of the second week August earnings for many lines showing numerous inereases acted as a pron tor this division. ‘These statements demon- strated that tonnage was increasing in widely separate sections. For the western quarter. Missouri Pacific showed a gain of $76,000. In the South Norfoik & Western led with $56,970, and the W est Was represented by a gain of $21,720 in Chicago Great Western. As the time approached for the publica- tion of the bank statement business became Very restricted. The statement met gen- eral expectatiogs as to the cash ioss of 35,541, S800. Accommodation to the under- Writing syndicate in connection with the British, London accounted for the greater part of the loans of 9,513,000. Deposits were reduced $5,(-91,600 and the general efrect was the shrinkage in surplus re- serves of $7,568 900. A replenishment of the bank's losses this week is expected to occur speedily, advices from Pacific coast points announcing the receipt of $4,500,000 Alaskan gold. This, it is believed, will be made available to the loca! vanks by government drafts on the sub- (reasury here. In addition, payments are now being made on account of the redemp- tion of the old government credit involving some 320,000,000, With these facts taken into consideration no general uneasiness is felt as to the immediate future of the money market.. The Wall street axiom, ‘‘When gold goes Ol@ Stocks go down,” for once was exploded this week, as the shipment of over $8,000,000 was attended by rising prices. As the ex- portation of over $17,000,000 gold during the past two weeks does not make very serious inroads on the country holdings and as con- Stant accessions are being received from natural sources. Wall tsreet’s equanimity was not surprising. On Weekly Cotton Letter. Activity in the cotton markets of the country is expected from this time forth, following the shipment of the staple to mar ket. Prices in spot and speculative centers will probably begin To reflect the condition of the crop. The speculative markets last week were sharply higher during most of the sessions. A small improvement was noted in the sit- uation, with the receipt of the poor weekly government report, which cleared matters up materially. The following review of the situation was received yesterday by Bennett Wasserman & Co. of this city from a well-known New York Cotton Exchange firm: By Wire to Bennett Wasserman & Co. NEW YORK, Aug. 18.—Irregularity, al- most startling at times, has characterized the week in the cotton market Both spot and speculative business has shown consid- erable broadening, while the future market at times has verged on almost record-break- ing activity, sales several times exceeding the 750,000 bales mark. |itself: 1as to | great part, to | speculation market iclusively on this feature for the next few lan (a remarkable urday | was quoted at 7, rose by leaps and bounds | Was advised.

Just so long as a State of uncertainty exists that long will and spot business be restricted. @# ton prices depend entirely on the cli- Mma.ic conditions ing the belt now, and the will continue to rely almost ex- weeks. Much depends on the crop movement also, and should there be only small traffic it is safe to assume that an actively higher market will be witnessed. There are Many interesting and novel features in the cotton situation this vear. What with all of the foreign cotton-produc- ing countries having their crops ruined, and unexampled amount of activity in the manufacturing business, it has indeed been year for the staple. but for the present, weather conditions lave the call. They are the pre-eminent fac- tors in the situation. A violent downpour, or the wild ravages of an insect pest may turn the market almost any day. So that, while the market has been quite active at during the past week, the changes ‘rice have not been remarkable ild otherwise have been the case, though viulue range for the week was almost 35 points. Indications of a much higher level for cotton prices have been followed by reactions, and vice-versa, indicating thai there has been a general lack of con- fidence on both sides This, course, Is the natural result of the deluge of con- flicting crop hews, which has been a fea- ture of the market during most of the week On account of this fact, everyone is more than usually at sea as to the progress of the crop and the prospects for it.

By Wire to Bennett Wasserman & Co. NEW YORK, Aug. 18.—Wall been much interested in St. Louis & South- curities for some time, street has western Railwdy s: but especially was true of the week, when the earnings for the month of July were published, exceeding greatly the expectations of everyone as to compari- S0n with previous years. While the month of July, 1899, was the best month in the company’s history, up to that time—with gross returns of 3$428,143, or $65,000 above those of the same period in 1898, the receipts for July, this year, amounted to $407,835, or $39,092 above the record-breaking total of the previous July. Compared with the revenues of the same month in 1898, the gain is $10,635, or 30 pe! A truly phenomenal increase This is a growth of earning power, which ranks with the best reported by any of the railroad companies, and exce this past as a Notwithstanding that August is usually a dull month in the receipts of most of the tern railroads, the showing this month. bids fair to equal that of July, There has rece ntly been an im} rovement in severa classes of freight, in which for some time past there had been noted some tendency) to diminish. This is notably true of jum ber, shipments of which over the St. Louis | & Southwestern are twice as heavy as they were a year ago, and as lumber is by far the largest class of freight moved on thi System, being almost one-half of the total tonnage in 1599, this is quite an important factor. The St. Louis & Southwestern has recent), experienced a change in its managemeni, and certain matters under consideration a the time of the installation of the new of ficials have been carried out with remark able success. At present, it is a question as to whether this is not thé most prosperou: of all the southwestern roads. Shipments of all Kinds have nearly doubled during the year; the company’s equipment was never in better shape, and the prospects for an excellent year are exceedingly bright. Almost one-half of the mileage of the St Louis & Southwestern is in the State ol Texas, 666 miles out of 1258 miles, the pros- perity of Texas during the coming year promises to tbe without parallel. Large cotton and grain crops are assured for the coming twelfth month. Besides this. an unusually large proportion of the carn crop is moving out via Galveston, and the St Louis & Southwestern is gaining heavil) from this traffic. Moreover, the new direct connection with Chicago, by way of the line of the Chicago & Eastern Illinois, which was opened some few months since, is now in full working order and has been found to be of enorm- ous mutual advantage A large business from northern Illinois has, by this means, been secured, and the tonnage is of such a character that it can be moved with dis- ‘patch and with comparatively little expense (to either fills cars now it should be ex the Southwestern road, as it mostly To understand this. that a branch of empty. plained | Was recently built to Gray’s Point Terminal. ‘about 130 miles down the Mississippi river i|from St. ‘agement Louis.

Detective, Disguised as an Immigrant, Has Learned Their Secrets and There Is No Doubt of Their Mission. Bpecial to the Post-Dispatch. NEW YORK, Aug. 18.—Fourteen anar- chists are now being detained at the barge office and quarantine. Two—Notabe Mares- ca and Michel Guida—are declared to be in a plot to assassinate President McWinley. The others are regarded as dangerous men who have come to this country to fulfill a vow made to anarchistic circles in Italy. , All doubt as to the motives of Maresca and Guida in coming to this country were, removed in the minds of the secret service agents today. They are satisfied that evi- dence is forthcoming from Paris and Na- ples that will warrant the punishing of the two men for conspiracy. Evidence from Paris !s on the way to Chief of Detectives:McClusky, sent by the inspector of the Paris _ police. United States Consul Boyton and the inspector of | the Naples police have gathered evidence against the two men, and have sent it to. Chief Wilkins of the secret service. Warrants charging the two men with conspiracy to murder the President were said to have been sworn out in Washing- ton. This is denied by Chief Wilkie of the secret service bureau. ‘“‘But we will hold the men an .ndefinite length of time,’ the chief added. ‘‘We will hold them until we get evidence against them.”’ Detective Learned Their Secrets. Evidence that three of the other twelve men are anarchists was secured by Detec- tive Petrocini of the central office. Dis- guised as an immigrant he has been living in the detention pen and among the Italian immigrants at quarantine and the barge office. The twelfth anarchist leaped from the immigrant boat at quarantine to evade the government officials. After eight hours in the water he was washed up on Liberty Island and arrested by United States sol- diers. The chiefs of the secret service bureau | and the immigration authorities tried in ev- ' ery way to keep the detention of the men and their plot against the life of the Presi- dent a secret. Not until afternoon was it admitted that the Post-Dispatch had learned the truth and that the men were being held because they planned the Presi- dent’s murder. Some Startiing Disclosures. In unraveling the mystery surrounding the motives of Maresca and Guida the se- cret service gentlemen of the New York de- tectives have made startling exposures. It all goes to prove that there has been an in- flux of Italian anarchists into this coun- } try in the past few months and that it was the purpose of the circles to come here to make final arrangements to carry their plots into execution. Chief McClusky received word ‘rom the inspector of the Paris police on Aug. ‘0 that two men, Italians, Notabe Maresca and Michil Guida, were » coming to this « coum ry THE SUNDAY POST-DISPATCH AUGUST 19. _—- re “WHY?” Also the regular four page Colored Comic Weekly and a Fourteen-Page Magazine, Illustrated With Half-Tone and Line Cuts, 38 PAGES IN ALL, Be Sure Your Newsdealer Gives You All.

BERLIN, Aug. 18.—The flight of the Do- wager Empress and the disappearance of the Emperor of China is here regarded as of much greater and lasting importance than the mere taking of Pekin, and the complications resulting therefrom are speculatively discussed by the press and in political circles. The overwhelming opin- ion is that since all the powers have agreed | to install a strong central governor at Pe- | | KOVe Taft is chair- | ‘claimed it , for | China. | States, it becomes necessary, first to destroy, or af jeast render harmless, the fugitiye rnment, which is responsible for the, Chinese eruption. Therefore it is is necessary to follow and cap- This probably will call employment of large additional besides those which are now in Surmises as to whether the [| — Great Britain and eer: will als share therein, or leave the burden to * sews sia. France, and, above all, to Germany, fill the papers today. The German government adheres to the kin, whole the fugitives. the f mrrces, ture | view that perfect harmony prevails among the powers regarding immediate action in China. A number of opposition papers ex- press deep dissatisfaction with the ignor- ing of the reichstag and the whole of the Emperor's China policy, declaring it far exceeds the limits laid down by Count von Buelow, the minister of foreign affairs, in his circular to the ruling princes of Ger- many on July ll. At Emperor William's dinner to Field Marshal! Count von Waldersee, last even- ing at Wilhelmshof, the China situation in its various bearings was thoroughly dis- cussed by his majesty and Count von Wal- dersee, Prince Muenster-Dernebtrg, Dr. lLucanus, the chief of the Emperor's civil cabinet, Admiral Diederichs and Colonia! (Chief Steubel. lierr von Brandt, a former minister to (China, in the missionary organ, Chriseniche Welt. puts the largest amount of blame for the Chinese outbreak on the misstonaries, citing a mass of evidence in support of hia assertions. He says: “Two-thirds of the work of the legation and eonsulates in China had been occa- sioned by the complaints, demands and nse Seema of missionaries.’ SHANGHAI SITUATION PROMISES TROUBLE WASHINGTON, D. C., Aug. 18.—The government, now fully satisfied by the ad- vices that the international troops hav: entered Pekin and that the legations are saved, is calmly awaiting detalled state- ments from its own officers. Dispatches were received today from Gen. Barry, at and Consul General Goodnow, at repeating the main fact of the Neither Gen. Chaffee were heard from however, and it is to them. particularly to the Americn commander at Pekin, that the government looks for advices not only on what has occurred but on the.local develop- ments from which an tmtelligent eat tion can be made of what still remain to be done. The President, Secretary Root and t- ing Secretary of State Adee; Acting Sedre- tary of the Navy Hackett and other offi- clals were in conference during the after- Chefoo Shanghal, capture and relief. nor Admiral Remey noon. It was said afterward that no ad- ditional details had come concerning Pekin, ind it was understood that the conference had to do with the situation at Shanghal. Word reached the navy department during the afternoon that the United tes cruiser New Orleans had reached Shanghai, at which point “British Warships and trans- Anche are already in force, while the French, tussians and Germans are hurrying their men to the same destination. The American government so far has kept out of the en- tanglement, and, in view of the reported landing of troops by some of the powers, it was stated that the landing of American troops had never been contemplated. Although the officials declined to give out any specific information It is understood generally that the government was in pos- session of word that the landing of the British forces had occurred to-day and that it was possible that this would be followed by the landing of German and French forces. As these several forces had the oe- tensible purpose of their landing the matn- tenance of peace and order, it is not as- sumed to be likely that any disorder can , arise from the course pursued, All Day Battle Raged Be- fore the Walls of the Imperial City. Followed Soon by the Ameri- | cans-and British Through Another Gate. ‘ALL THE ENVOYS ARE SAFE, Special Cable to the Post-Dispatems * (Copyright. 1900.) LONDON, Aug. 19 (Sunday), 2 am- Ample confirmation has been received of the report that Pekin was captured Aug. 15. Official reports to various countries concerned in the relief expedition leave no doubt that the capital of China is in the hands of allies, and that all the for- eigners besieged there have been res- cued. The Japanese official dispatches and one news dispatch from Shanghai speak of fighting and obstinate resistance by the Chinese. Admiral Bruce’s cable and some other official messages say aething about any conflict, while some’ news re- ports tell about troops entering the city unopposed. It appears that the Americans and British entered the city at one point together, while the Japanese and Rus- sians, approaching at another point, had to fight their way in after blowing down a gate. The imperial family seems to have taken flight. Europe, America and Japan nisieil some time ago to restore order through. out China after the legations were saved and to establish a stable government for the empire. That is the task now be+ fore the Western nations. It is likely to be long and hard. The eyes of the world, which have been fixed hitherto on Pekin, are turn- ing to Shanghai, where an embroglio re- sulting from the jealousy and suspicion of the powers will possibly shortly as- sume a serious aspect. The British land- ed Gurkas and Bombay regiments on Friday and France is hurrying 1700 Ton- kin troops there, some of whom are re- ported to have arrived already. The situation in the valley of the Yang Tse Kiang, at Wu Chang, is serious. Chang Chi Tung’s troops mutinied, but the outbreak was quelled. Russia’s campaign in Manchuria seems to be progressing satisfactorily. Gen. Orliff, chief of staff of the Russian forces in China, reports on Aug, 14 that he! at- tacked the Chinese at Medu Chei on Aug. 12 and advanced to Yak Shi and captured an abundance of stores subse- quently. The Chinese are said to be gathering in force in the neighborhood of Kobdo, from which place the Russian and Tartar residents have departed, A Berlin dispatch dated this (Sunday) morning says the German marine battal- ions arrived at Tien Tsin on Thursday. TOKIO, Aug. 17.—Gen. Yamaguchi wires from Pekin under date of Aug. 16 as follows: The allies attacked Pgkin early yester- day, opening with artillery on the east- ern side. enemy. The Japanese and Russians were on the northward of Tung Chow canal. The Americans and British were on the south side. At nightfall the Japanese blew up the two eastern gates of the Tartar city and entered. In the meantime the Americans and British entered the Chinese city by the Tung Pien gates. : Detachments of each force were sent towards the legations. The parties mee near the legations and opened commu- nication.

SUNDAY MORNING--ST. LOUIS POST-DISPATCH—AUGUST 19, 1900. aaeee—| CUT 10 DEATH HIS FRIEND: Spectators Thought It Was a Fist Fight. SYLVESTER GARNAN KILLED. REPEATEDLY STABBED BY ED- WARD SCROGGINS. Garnan Was Drunk and Forced the Fighting in the Presence of Sev- eral Hundred Persons in Alton. Sylvester Garnan was stabbed to death with a penknife last night at Alton by his friend, Edward Scroggins. The stabbing occurred in the presence of ' 190 spectators, but none of them knew of Scroggins’ deadly work until after it was done. The witnesses thought the men were fighting with their fists and encouraged them in the battle. The well directed blows of Scroggins were greeted with , laughter and applause. It was not until after Garnan sank to the ground exhausted from the loss of blood that ths spectators learned that a ! knife had been concealed in Scroggins’ ' hand, and the blows they had applauded and laughed at were letting out the life- blood of Garnan. The tragedy was the culmination of a drunken debauch upon which Garnan en- tered yesterday afternoon. He worked as a section hand on the Bluff line at Alton. He went there from Mitchell a few weeks ago, leaving his wife with her parents at the fatter place. When he quit work yes- terday afternoon he began drinking. A few hours later he met Scroggins, with whom he was on friendly relations. Scroggins works for the Iliinois Glass Co., is 26 years old and unmarried. He declined to take a drink when invited to do so by Garnan. It is said that this angered Gar- nan and he immediately began quarreling with Scroggins. The latter t@ated his re- marks with good nature, refusing to be an- gered by them. But witnesses say Garnan insisted on fighting. Scroggins showed a felon on his hal as an excuse for holding his peace, and left the saloon. He walked in the direction of the police headquarters, his o»urpose being to decoy Garnan there and iave him placed behind the bars to sober up. Garnan followed him with a large crowd at his heels. At Second and Piasa streets, the corner of which is within a stone’s throw of the potice headquarters, Garnan caught hold of Scroggins and insisted on fighting. In a twinkling, the men clinched and the fighting began. Scroggins clung to Gar- nan's neck with his crippled hand and rained blow after blow upon his antago- . nist. The crowd of spectators, which rapidly swelled as the struggle progressed, formed a circle about the men and enjoyed the contest that was destined to have such a qtragic development. The antagonists were encouraged to flerce fighting by the mem- bers of the crowd, who picked favorites and applauded each point scored by them. The men. who understood better than the spectators what it all meant, fought with the grim determination that is peculiar to death struggles. They did not for an instant release their holds about each other's body ‘and not a word either of pain of repentance was uttered. Garnan, who fought fast and furious at first, soon began to weaken and to strike blindly, his blows missing their mark. But the brawny fist and muscular arm of Scrog- cxins worked with the regularity of a pum handle, and there was no missing of parks on his part. At last. Garnan’s arms fell to his side, a look of supreme agony came over his face, and he tottered and fell to the ground. At that instant, Scroggins turned around so that his hand was squarely in the glare of an electric light. The spectators caught the swift gleam of a knife blade in his fist and. for the first time, understood what had been passing before them. An ambulance was summoned and the wounded Garnan was taken to St. Joseph's Hospital, but just as he was being carried through the door into the surgical ward, death came. An examination of the body showed that it had been literally hacked to pieces. The cuts on the chest and back were so numer- ous that no etfort was made to count them. None of them was deep, but each had been an outlet for a portion of blood, and Gar- nan’s life had really gone out through them before the contest was ended. Scroggins made no effort to escape, and was promptly arrested and lodged in jail. In his pocket was found the knife with which he had killed Garnan. He had calm- ly wiped the blood from it upon his trousers and placed it away for further use. Garnan’s body was taken to the morgue. It is expected that his wife wi!l arrive in Alton from Mitchell today to take charge of it and give it it suitable burial. ON WARRANT FOR FORGERY Allen Brown Arrested and Is Wanted at Terre Haute, Ind. Allen Brown was arrested last night at 509 South Twenty-second street by Detec- tives Caudle and Dotzman on complaint of Detective I. H. Frail of Terra Haute, Ind., who had followed him to this city.

DROWNED WHILE SWIMMING Joseph Kotsiba Met Death on the Illinois Side of the River. oJseph Kotsiba, aged 18, was drowned in the river last night while bathing on the Iilinois side. He was a machinist and re- sided at 6324 South Fighth street. He had embarked with a rty of friends on a@ boat from the foot of Elwood street, in Carondelet. and, after crossing the river, had gone in swimming.

Within a Few Hours Steffen Took Mor- phine and Died Without Regaining Consciousness and Miss Porter Has Left the City. Robert Steffen, who was found uncon- scious in his room at the Benton hotel early yesterday morning and died a few hours later at the city hospital, a victim of morphine potlsoning, was on the eve of marriage to Miss Virginia Georgia Porter, until recently employed at the city poor- house as a trained nurse. Miss Porter’s home is in Kansas City, where her family is said to be prominent. For several days past she has been stopping with Mrs. M. D. Jones at 4240 Olive street. All arrangements for the wedding had been completed and Miss Porter, accom- panied by Mrs. Jones, departed for Kansas City yester BY. It is pres.u ined she intended to make & short visit to her parei@®. before the wed- ding ceremony took place. Mrs. Jones is the daughter of a Mrs. Mc- Gonigal, who lives at 4213 Olive street. Mrs. McGonigal confirmed the informa- tion of her daughter's trip to Kansas City last night, but said she did not know whether Miss Porter went with her. ‘‘My acquaintance with Miss Porter was slight; in fact, I really did not know, though I had heard of her,’’ she said. It is stated that Miss Porter and Mrs. Jones were close friends and it was at the latter’s house that Steffen frequently called to see his sweetheart. They became acquainted at house. where Steffen was an accountant. That was six months ago. They were seen together frequently and took their days oft at the same time. Soon it was rumored thev would be married. Miss Porter resigned her position and went to live with Mrs. Jones. Steffen quit work at the poorhouse last Thursday, assigning as a reason that«he had secured a lucrative position in the city auditor's office. His mother. Mrs. Theresa Steffen, 2504 South Tenth street. In discussing her son's tragic death. yes- terday. Mrs. Steffen said: “He left home four years ago and came back at intervals, but he never contributed to the support of the family.”’ Joe Steffen. a brother of the dead man, stated that Robert came home Friday and announced that he had been married to Miss Porter and that thev intended to make their home on West Olive street. He did not go into the details of the supposed wed- ding, and Joe says he left word for him to meet him at the auditor’s office in the city hall Saturday morning at 9 o'clock. Miss Porter came to St. Louis from Kan- sas City about a year ago. She is described as a handsome woman of the blonde type, apparently about 23 years of age. She has blue eyes and a florid complexion. She was tall and well-formed. Steffen called on Miss Porter Friday nga and remained in her company_some time. About 9 they went to the pharmacy at Sarah and Olive streets and called up Eus- tace Trittmann, a mutual) friend, who is in the drug business at Ninth street and Allen avenue. Steffen informed Trittmann that he and Miss Porter had been married and the druggist hastened to offer congratulations. Mr. Trittmann stated that Steffen and Miss Porter were engaged a long while and he was not surprised to learn they had married. He added, that he had met Miss Porter several times and regarded her as a most estimable and charming young woman. Steffen arrived at the Ysenton hotel soon after midnight Saturday. At 1 o'clock Saturday morning the bell- boy answered a ring in Steffen’s room and found the latter lying across the bed in a comatose condition. On the dresser was a = of whisky which contained mor- ohine. Steffen did not regain consciousness. He was {®Pxen to the city hospital, but efforts to revive him proved futile and he died without uttering a word. In this pocket was found a note gequest- ing that his: clothing be sent to Miss Vir- ginia Porter at 4220 Olive street. This address was evidently an error, as no Miss Porter or relatives or acquaintances lived at that number. Several love-letters, signed ‘‘Virginia”’ and “‘Georgia.”’ couched in the most endearing terms were found among Steffen’s personal effects. Miss Porter's last letter to Steffen indi- cated that they intended to separate. She speaks of the ending of their beautiful dream of love. and reminds him of an ap- pointment with her. She referred to other appointments which she tntended to keep before her departure. THEY LIKE PRINCIPAL RABE Irving School Patrons Adopt Resolu- tions Asking That Order of Trans- fer Be Rescinded.

Mr. Hawes Thinks His Friends Were Betrayed in the House of Their Ancient Enemies. Harry B. Hawes says the attempt made by the Brady faction in the Democratic city committee, under the leadership of Charles Lemp, to oust French Nelson, the Jefferson Club representative from the Twenty-second Ward and to reorganize the committee was a fiasco and simply resulted in a revelation of the secret plans of the Brady faction. Mr. Hawes claims that there was an agreement between all factions in the com- mittee to maintain harmony during the caimpaign for the purpose of presenting a united front to the enemy, and that the Bradyites took advantage of this armistice to spring an attempt at reorganization. Mr. Hawes is confident that it was a failure, although the other side claims that the ousting of Nelson was legal and regular, and that his seat in the committee is vacant, The true test of strength will come at the next meeting of the cominmittee. Mr. Hawes Says it will then be shown that the Brady faction took snap judgment and have not enough strength to put their scheme tnrough., “Some time ago,’ said Mr. Hawes to the Post-Dispatch, “‘overtures were made by all the factions looking to the establish- ment of harmony during the fall campaign. | Finally an agreement was reached that the ,} ambitions of the factions shouid be buried until aficr the campaign and that they should work in harmony against the com- mon enemy. “This was the understanding of myself and my friends and we acted upon it. Thinking ‘hat all was harmonious and that no attempt would be made to take snap ~y ment some of our fellows became iax n their attendance at the meetings of the committee. “It transpires now that this was just what the other side was waiting for.

CONFIRMS + END OF A FIGHT WAGED | FOUR YEARS. FOR The Pope Will Personally Hand ths Letters of Appointment to the Great Teacher in a Few Weeks. Special Cable to the Post-Dispatch. BRUSSELS, Aug. 18.—‘I will bring my -own bulls to America,” said Archbishop Keane when the Post-Dispatch called on him. “My appointment to the Archbishop- | ric of Dubuque is my vindication.” A@uibishop Keane is spending a brief season in “Peace and Prayer’ at a mon- astry. Next month he will go to Rome and | obtain the letter of his appointment from the Pope’s own hands. Then he will re- turn to the United States. For years he has been in semi-disgrace. His course at Rome has been in the line of conduct laid down and insisted upon by Archbishop Riordan of San Francisco. When Dr. Keane retired from the rector- ship of the Catholic University at Wash- ington he took refuge with Dr. Riordan, who insisted on his going to Rome. In Rome he was named a canon of the Late- ran Basilica, where he remained for two years. : Meantime the polemics over the 3 questions of Americanism were raging in Rome. So bitter became the controversy that Cardinal Parochi referrec to the Catholic Church of America as “the Semi- Sciamatic Church of the United States.” When the See of Dubuque was made va- cant by the death of Dr. Henness the American bishops rallied to the support of Archbishop Keane. With the exception of the most Rev. Dr. Katzer of Milwaukee, who sent to Rome a letter of opposition, every Catholic archbishop in America signed a petition for the appointment of Afchbishop Keane. “ix weeks after the arrival of the petition in Rome, Archbishop Keane was appraised of his appointment. It is true that so far the apostolic delega- tion in Washington has not received the official documents announcing Mr. Keane s nomination. After the example of the other Roman congregations, the propaganda, from which such documents would come, practically suspends the transaction of busi- ness from the end of June to the beginning of October. The archbishop is greatly amused by the fact that many of his best. friends in the Inited States and many of the American Catholic weeklies cannot believe the news of his nomination and consider it too good to be true. subtle —————— BLORY FOR VICTOR EMMANUEL Giolitti Likens Him to Napoleon and Says He Will Prove a Great Ruler.

It was not less mag- nificem in its pomp than the ceremony at- | tending the formal opening of the expo- sition. The announcement of the awards occurred in the Salic des Fetes. This hall, which itself is one of the most beau- tiful, was extravagantly decorated, though following the same general ornamentation as on the opening day.

SHE COULD’T UNDERSTAND WHAT HE HAD TO SAY. He Was Telling Her of the Purse, aud How Happy He Was to Be Able to Restore It, and She Called a Policeman. Special Cable to the Post-Dispatch, (Capyright 140.) PARIS, Aug. 18.—lUnited States Senator Chauncey M. Depew, who just sailed for New York, came near getting into deep trouble here in performing an act of kindly gallantry. Most to blame for the distress- ing occurrence was the senator's imperfect French. Having found a purse on the floor of a hotel near an armchair where he had seen a pretty girl seated a short time before, the senator deposited the purse with the hotel clerk. An hour later, being on the street near the hotel, the senator recog- nized, by the Nght of a street lamp, the same girl hurrying from her call. Desirous of saving her anxiety when she discovered her loss, the senator walked briskly after her, and when he had reached her side addressed her in his politest French. The girl, thoroughly frightened, and not understanding him, shrieked for help. The kKinalv senator tried to pacify her and as she persisted in her failure to compre- hend and in crying out for assistance, grew vehement and scared her all the more. Finally the foolish maiden ran to a police- man who had appeared upon the scene and appealed for protection. It was only after a long wrangle that the stupid officer of the law, zealous to appear in the light of res- cuer of woman in distress, would admit the possible truth of Senator Depew’s labo- rious ex;lanations. The hotel being near, the policeman finally consented to accom- pany Mr. Depew and the lady there, stick- ing clos2 to the lady all the way. The purse, which contained a large sum of money, was returned to the fashionable young woman by the clerk and she, under- standing at last, impulsively threw her arms around the senator’s neck and kissed him on the cheek. SHAH EATS WITH HIS FINGERS Beheaded His Servants and Hay Shocked the Nice Senses of the French. Special Cable to the Post-Dispatch. (Copyright, 1900.) PARIS, Aug. 18.—Since the departure of the Shah of Persia for Ostend the Paris papers are filled with curious anecdotes about him and his suite during their stay here. It is said that while constraining himself to use a fork on state occasions the Shah whenever eating away from Europeans or official dignitaries preferred to employ his fingers in dealing with meat and salads. Another story told of him is that he caused his Persian servants to be flogged ‘almost daily for the least offense and once even ordered one, who upset a candle stick on the table, burning the Shah's hand slight- ly, to be decapitated. French advisers had ‘great trouble in making the eastern ruler -understand that he must refrain from such | practices. | Among the Shah’s remarkable purchases ‘was more than two tons of French candies, iprincipally sugar almonds, which he munched at the rate of a pound a day after his discovery of these dainties at a con- | fectioners. | The thing that bewildered the Shah more ‘than all the other wonders that he saw 'was the affection of the European husband ‘for his one wife, even long after age had ‘rendered her unattractive. At an official banquet given to the Shah by President Lou- bet the Asiatic monarch critically surveyed the low-necked matrons around the table, almost all middle-aged wives of high person- ages. and then remarked bluntly to Gen. Parent, who sat next to him: “IT can't understand why you retain your attachment for women, and especially why you bring them out when they have reached such an advanced age. In my harem all the women are young.” The papers say that he engaged two young and pretty women acrobats, whom he noticed at the Hippodrome circus, to perform later at his palace, and that five French girls, four of whom were dancers and one an expert stenographer, were sent to Teheran to await his return. The Shah and the grand vizier are known to have bought more than 160 dresses of the most fashionable and costly i varieties. The Figaro says that the cost of the Shah's purchases while he was here was | more than $1,600,000. When the Shah and his Persian colony ‘vacated the sumptuous mansion provided by the French Government for visiting royalty it was found ‘thoroughly clean the entire establishment. Many priceless tapestries, carpets and pieces of furniture were ruined. The Shah took but one bath during his Stay and that was scalding hot and not for the sake of cleanliness, but to allay rheumatic pains. During hie visit the Shah decorated 240 people, including Cherlo, the American palmist, who predicted the attempted shooting of the Shah four days before the event. SOUSA FEELS AGGRIEVED.

FLORENCE, Italy, Aug. ment of the town of Prato, the home of An- archist Gaetano Bressi, regarding his mur- der of King Humbert, may be thus con- densed as the result of a visit to that town by the Post-Dispatch correspondent: It does not seem posSibie that so good a king as Humbert could be assassinated by so good a man as Gaetano Bressi. Friends, neighbors, companions at labor here and tn the little town of Com, iobbi, where he worked for many years, all tes- tify that Gaetano Bressi was quiet, undem- cnstrative, a good workman and the last man in the world to be suspected -of the awful crime which he has committed. They say that he was not convivial and was inclined to withdraw from association with’ others, but they deciare that he was always kind and gentle and that, notwith- | standing his retiring manners, he was liked by everybody. The house which was the home of Gae- tano Bressi is the typical one of the aver- age well-to-do Tuscan workman—white- washed, with gray blinds, a shading a green front door and little kitch- en garden in the rear. Further back is the dark of olive groves and in the front yard the shadow of a gigantic elm.

TRINSMIGRATION OF A SOUL FYIT ES MAY BETHIBA Mariner Kerbec Told His Wife ‘har After His Death He Would Re- appear in the Guise Doftmestic Pet. Special Cable to the Post-Dispatch. (Copyright, 1900.) PARIS, Aug. 18.—One of the most wonder- ful stori2s of the transmigration of souls ever told comes from L Orient, an eastern seaport, where seven persons of good intelli- | swear | gence and a reputation for truth upon their honor that a dog spoke to them intelligently. Ten wears ago, according to their testl- mony, a mariner named Kerbec, always been a firm believer in the transm!- | gration of tne human soul to the body of an inferior being, told his wife that after he | died he would return to her in the guise of | some domiestic pet. Four years ago a strange dog wandered into the house and remained there, being well taken care of by the family. Three days ago Widow Kerbec, her three grown children and three neighbors, including a skeptical echoolmaster, were spending the evening together at the house, chatting pleasantly, when suddenly the dog, crouch- ing away in a dark corner, began to moan piteously. Everyone thought that the animal was dreaming. but presently he arose on his hind legs and away, unnatural voice, these words: “Adieu. wife and children; adieu, friends.” | Then he fell stone dead Nothing can shake the conviction of the witnesses of this scene that the dog really spoke. The schoolmaster even asserts that eh saw the animal's jaws move as he ut- | tered his uncanny farewell. Many of the citizens of L'Orient are deeply | incensed because the Catholic Chur h au- thorities decline to hold religious ceremo- nies for the burial of the dog. \ a > -—— .

Expect Soon to See Christian Slaves fer Sale in the Marts of Tangiers— All These Things Known by ““Mental Telegraph.” TANGIER, Aug. 18.—Here is an extracrm dinary circumstance for this decadently bar- barous land, which has neither internal telegraph wires, locomotives, nor any other news-bearing feature of modern civ- llization. The Post-Dispatch correspondent has just returned to Tangier, after a trip in the in- terior. At El Kear el Keheer he got into conversation with an ex-Kald of that city, a rather celebrated character, in his trucu- lent, swashbuckling way: and this was among the things he sald: “You N’zranis (Christians) are pretty nearly done. Our turn has come again, and presently there will be Christian staves once more in this our El Maghib!” “And are the British done for, too, M’ha- met?’’ I asked, feelingly, having a natural desire to know whether J. Bull ts actually fallen in prestige in these parts. “The British are more done than the oth- ers. The French are done, too. Do you know that they have taken their consul awav from Fez? (This is a fact. though not known in Europe at the time of this itn- terview. It occurred soon after the French grab at Igii.) That is because they are afraid. They know what is coming. You know my cousin In Fez killed an American protection man the other day? (A fact). Have the N’zranis dared to do anything because of that? No! They know. They don't think we Moors know; but we do, though.’’ “Well, now. “This Spanish mission has Just left Mar- rakeesh for Tangier, by ship! (A fact, as I found on my arrival here. But how my friend could possibly have ascertained it there in remote El Ksar I cannot imagine.) That, too, is because the N’zranis fear. No mission has ever returned that way before. They dare not cross by land now."’ “But, even so,” I said: “troubles In Mo- rocco are not going to wipe out all the Christians, you know, M’hamet.”’ “You are funny, you N'zranis,” he said with a sneer. ‘‘You belleve no one’s stories but your own, and you think no one knows anything except yourself. Do you think we Moors are dead? Or ts it that because we don’t trouble ourselves with all youg stupid telegraphs and smoke machines, you think we can't get news of the world? oN here! In China all your bashadors (minke ters) and mish'nries are threatened wit® the kriss In the Sacred City, and about te pay for that impudence in violating the great Mahomet's rules with their lives. No one knows it, eh? That is your mistake; your N'zran! blindness. Every true Mus- lim knows it. Every one knows it, except the N'zranis. They know so little outside their machines.” “But how do you know it?’ “How do l know that the British hate just been beaten again in South Africa. and 2W prisoners taken? How do I know that new rifles to shoot 10 times without loading are go'ng all through Morocco now, and that our customs people no longer try te stop it? Believers know much. There are many believers in that China: many Sea- nussi men, too, as here, in El Kear.” “But you have no telegraphs; how could you get the news from them?” “B'ism Illah! We have our heads. There are ways; but they are ways that N’sranis cannot understand; and, not being their own stories, they don't believe tn them.” I was a good dea! astonished on my ar rival at Tangier, where we have the tele- graph, to find a part of what this man had told me to be true. The new Basha of Tan- gier arrived here the other day. His letter from the young Sultan was read aloud at the entrance to the principal mosque, with some ceremony, and In its honor a salute of 21 guns was fired from this port.

PINOCHLE WON IN A GALLOP. | € Eugenia 8S. Stumbled in This Race, but Her Jockey, E. Matthews Escaped With Slight Injuries. It would indeed be a difficult proposition for a referee to décide who was the victor of the battle between the racing talent and the “bookies” at the Fair Grounds on Sat- urday. The regulars, aided by a large force of the holiday devotees of the game, were on hand for their weekly skirmish. Favorites and second choices bagged the long end of the purses. The New Century stakes was a racing present from the Fair Grounds association to Tom Nepper. His nomination for the event, Sir Rolla, had only to pass seventeen furlong posts, and do that mildly, for the stake. Gov. Boyd was the first performer on the program to assist the talent, and he did so gracefully. The pencilers laid 7 to. 06 against his chances, to their sorrow, 48 he won easily from Kitty Clyde, the second choice of the contest. Followin Sir Rolla’s exercise gallop came a selling race at a mile and seventy yards. Prince Real was handed to the ublic as 1 caloric proposition, and he was acked all over the ring by supposedly wise lucre. Eleanor- Holmes figured to be the best and was given to the followers of the Post-Dispatch statistician as one of the best betting propositions on the card. At post time Eleanor Holmes’ price receded to 6 to 1 and was played at that quotation by those who follow form. She won in a mild drive from the supposed good thing. Pinochle, who has ‘“‘melted”’ many dol- lars for the public this season, looked like “four hundred aces’ to the talent, and was made the favorite of the fourth race. Go- toed was backed at post time from 3 down to 2 to 1. Coming down the stretch Sugenia 8. stumbled, throwing Jockev E. Matthews to the ground. He was stunned momentarily, but toritunately was unin- jured. Pinochle, however, was in front at the time and the accident did not affect the result. save that Eugenia S. might have been second or third. Triaditza and Tasso were played as good things by the talent to capture the fifth race, however the ‘“‘knowing ones played W. J. Baker. This animal worked very fast Friday morning. and all the Demo- crats in the Nineteenth Ward had money to burn after Baker's victory. Another quintet of speedy performers went to the post in the sixth race. The Light was plaved all over the ring at 4 to 5, while Jockey Dominick's followers went to Lord Neville, at 5 to 2. This lilltputian “Knight of the Pigskin" jockeyed His Lord- ship home an easy winner and partially re- munerated his clientage for their previous losses on his mounts. Grantor lasted long enough to capture the second money. A mild gale began to blow just prior to ost time for the concluding event of the ay and a heavy downfall of rain made the track a trifie slow... Henry of Franstamar Was made an odds-on favorite, but the best he could do was to finish at the helm of Kindred. Bonaqgua, who tried to make @ runaway race of the affair, was third. First race, one mil and = three-six- teenths—Gov. Boyd 14 (Daie), 7 to 5, first by a neck; Kitty Clyde 91 (KE. Matthews), 5 to 2, second; Sailie Lamar 102 (Dominick), 80 to 1, third. Time, 2:03%.

The Beaneaters, with Evangelist Ted Lewis on the rubber, proved too much for the Cardinals tn the final game of the series at League Park Saturday afternoon, and in consequence they won a dull, uninteresting game by the score of 9 tol. ‘“‘Veteran Sam Crane ‘Teils of the Reowdyism of | Lewis’ steady twirling was the prime feat- ure of the game. The parson was in splendid form and had the locals at his mercy from the start to the finish and even a slippery ball caused by a heavy down- pour of rain in the seventh inning did not cause him to lose any of his splendid con- trol or speed.He had all the requisite pitch- ing paraphernalia in his repertoire and the support accorded him by his teammates was, with one exception, absolutely perfect. After the second inning, when the visitors drove big Cy Young to the timber and piled up a total of four runs by consecutive hit- ting, the locals never had a chance. Hughey took Young’s place in the box and pitched played anj after you get away you then use your in great form until the seventh inning, when the Boston bunch lit onto his shoots with a vengeance, adding five additional tallies to their score in the final three innings. Rain stopped the game for 30 minutes after |Boston’s half of the seventh and then the ‘fiasco was resumed on a slippery fleld. The soggy grounds did not seem to affect the visitors’ playing in the least, as they con- tinued to retire the Cardinals in the same one. two, three order that they had in the preceding innings before Jupiter Pluvius put a temporary stop to the tiresome sport. The support accorded the local twirlers was not of the best, the Cardinals playing ragged ball at times, and Dillard, especially, making a mess of McGraw’s position. Bobby Wallace played a sensational game at short, he ee ten difficult chances without the semblance of an error and tak- ing part in a fast double play with Mc- Gann. Jesse Burkett’s fielding was also of the finest, the fleet left flelder accepting eight chances in his position, two of which were assists, one to the plate and the other to third base, the former being a great double play. Hamilton carried off the flelding honors for the visitors, with five difficult putouts to his credit. Billy also was there with the stick. three slashing singles being his total for the day. Collins also swatted the horse- hide, securing a triple, a double and a scratch single out of the five times he faced the local twirlers. Stahl and Freeman ne- gotiated for two safe drives apiece, while each of the other Beaneaters negotiated for a single. The less said about the locals’ batting the better, as they were only able to connect safely with Lewis’ tantalizing benders four times, and only one of these was for an extra base, Burkett’s double in the opening inning. The Bostons started the run-getting in the second inning. Collins opened the bom- bardment by slashing the sphere to deep right center for three bases and scored on Freeman's single to right. Duffy hit safe to right and both runners advanced a base on a passed ball. Lowe hit to Young and was an easy out at first. Sullivan slammed a sizzler past second and Free- man and Duffy counted. Lewis was then given a free pass and Hamilton followed with a single to left, which scored Sulli- van. Hughey at this stage relieved Young in the box and Jeems opened by throwing the first ball he pitched wild, enabling Lewis and Hamilton to advance a base. Dillard fell down in fielding Long’s easy tap and the sacks were full. Pat claimed that Lewis had tripped him, but Hurst re- fused to allow it. Stahl then flied to Burk- ett and Jess by a perfect return to Criger doubled Lewis at the plate. The visitors did not score again until the seventh inning, when they added four more runs to their score. Hamilton singled to center, Long sacrificed and Stahl doubled to right, scoring Hamilton. Collins hit to Wallace, forcing Stahl. Freeman followed with a single to right and then purloined the second sack. Duffy walked, filling the base, and Lowe placed a safe hit in left. Burkett flelded the ball and threw to Cri- ger. Lou missed connections and Collins. Freeman and Duffy trotted home. Sullivan obligingly ended the inning by altring to Burkett. The rain at this stage was coming down in torrents, and after Keister had singled and McGann and filed to Hamilton, Hurst called time. There was a delay of thirty minutes when the rain subdued and the game was resumed. St. Louis was easily retired in the last two innings, but the vis- itors chalked up another tally in the ninth on Stahl’s double, Collin’s scratch and i ag pt single to right. : St. Louis scored their lone tally tn the sixth on Stahl’s muff of ideas bea drive. an infield out and Criger’s line drive to Hamilton.

Cram, who has published the Macon Record at Macon, Ill., for 10 years, sold the stock and: plant yesterday to Arthur Creech of Sulli- Van. mailed to any address | HIS HEART OF STONE ) HERRICK’S VITAL ORGAN WAS NEARLY PETRIFIED. CHICAGO, Aug. 18.—A petrified heart, So ‘hard that it could not be cut with a sharp ;| knife, kept company in Broker Edward T. Herrick’s vitals with the deadly quantity of arsenic revealed by the expert chemist conducting the analysis of the stomach’s contents. Still the Herrick heart, say men familiar with medicine, was a heart that would not have stopped soon because of its petrifaction or from the results of any other cardiac disease or ailment. It was solidifying slowly under the influence of | the disease known as chalky degeneration, but would have run on for years, Prof. De- lafontaine asserts, if Herrick had not be- come @ victim of a more fatal disorder. Through the consumption of arsenic ad- ministered by himself or given to him with evil intent by some one else he became afflicted with a deadly attack that brought about his sudden and mysterious death oie week ago in his home at Champlain ave- nue and Forty-fourth street. This is the gist of recent sensational statements made by Chemist Mark Dela- fontaine and Coroner's Physician Joseph Springer, the two medical experts engaged in the investigation to determine the cause of the aged commission merchant's demi e. Although Prof. Delafontaine reiterated yesterday afternoon his previous warning to the public that something might yet oc- cur in his tests which would cause him to modify or alter his conclusions that death resulted from the arsenic found, he ad- mitted that no good reason now existed for believing his present ideas would De changed. It is shown in the analysis of the professor that Herrick could not have been an habitual eater of arsenic, strychnine or other deadly poisons, as has been claimed in some quarters, none of the inevitable marks of the chronic use of these drugs having been disclosed. secause of the anticipated difficulty of fixing the blame upon anyone in the event that there should “ conc.usive proof that Herrick died from poison, the coroner has determined to consult State’s Attorney De- neen as to the legal aspects of the case, as it is expected to be unfolded at the next session of the inquest. Exhaustive efforts are now being made in various quarters to obtain any new infor- matia. that may be calculated to throw further light on the mystery. Acting Chief of Detectives Joyce has detailed men to look into the circumstances of the case, beginning at a point many years ago. The liyde Park perme are working independent- ly; and are believed to lean to a conclusion that Mr. Herrick’s death was self-inflicted. Detectives employed by private individuals are also giving the closest attention to the matter, and the publicity which has been afforded it already has brought forward two persons who know something of the history of Mr. Herrick. One'of these was ’.. T. Haas, who told the police that he had Known Herrick for years as a persist- ent consumer of strychnine tablets of the homeopathic variety. The other was George Brown, lessee of a barn in the rear of Herrick’s home at 440) Champlain ave- nue, who asserts that the broker did not die suddenly, as at first reported, but that for hours before the fatal moment he writhed in an agony of pains which the sufferer declared were racking his stomach and bowels. A man, whose name was undivulged, be- lieved to be a crank or notorlety seeker, was at the coruner’s office early In the day on a call in reference to the Herrick case. He | Startled Deputy Bach by announcing that /a confession had been made by the poisoner |of Mr. Herrick. The visitor then added that | the confession had been made to his wife land that he knew Herrick well and had | warned him that he would be poisoned. | Pleading that he wished to avoid notoriety | he refused to give his name and left. Before }any more could be learned from him he | had disappeared, while Mr. Bach was taking counsel with Coroner Berz as to how to get the man to narrate the details of his story. | Officials of the coroner's office are piqued (at Prof. Delafontaine’s report. The coroner's | officials hold that Herrick came to his death as the result of the constant use of strych- nine, not through any foul play. Deputy Coroner Bach asserts that Prof. Delafon- taine’s frequent statements to the public \this week that there were evidences of |} poison were a breach of professional cour- tesy and were in direct violation of a prom- | ise not to disclose the result of his exam- |ination until the inquest was held. The fact that Mrs. Herrick has taken the professor's statements without any mani- i festations of worry, emphasized their theory that foul play cannot be shown. 80 Pe Bvuek } ——s Liver Complaints, is Dr. remedies fail. cures while you sleep.

SOUTHEAST MISSOURI'S FACTS IN | TRAGEDY. A Scandal That Involved the Most In- fluential Family in Wayne Coun- try and Ended in Murder. . Special to the Post-Diapatch. GREENVILLE, Mo., Aug. 18—The te@e- timony today in the trial of Monroe Johnson for the murder of Hiram N. Holladay on the 14th of last May, brought fw new facts There is intense intefest In the trial, not only here, but in other parts of the state, owing to the wealth and position of HMolla- day. Holladay was well known in St. Louis. C. C. Rainwater is president of the company owning the Holladay Ratiroad. Eli Kiots of St. Louis was associated in business with Holladay for a number of years. R. J. Medley of St. Louis was vice-president of the Holladay-Klotz Land and Lumber Co. at one time. Other St. Louis men owned stock in the corporation. But little over one day was all that was required in joking the evidence. The testi- mony closed early this morning. The de- fense used but one witness and that was Johnson himself. His testimony differed but little from that given by the state's witnesses, all of who swore to statements Johnson made soon after the killing. Over most of the facts In the case there was no controversy and the only question at issue was whether Johnson was justified in killing Holladay. The court gave the jury four sets of instructions. which r- mitted them to bring in verdicts fin ing Johnson guilty of murder in the first de- gree, second degree, manslaughter in the fourth degree or acquitting him. The state is represented by Prosecuting Attorney V. Ving. ex-Congressman John Raney and Judge J. F. Green and the defense by R. Smith W. 8. Anthony and 8. R. Durham, all of whom made able and eloquent speeches. A verdict will Hke« y be reached tomorrow. False Husband, False Sister. ; The story of the tragedy and the occur- ences by which it was caused, so far as brought out in the testimony, are in thor- ough accord with the reports published tn the Post-Dispatch at the time of of Holladay. Holladay’s livin wife at tee time of the shooting had been Mar Haynie daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Samual Haynie, both of whom.are aged. Johnson's wife is a sister of Mrs. Holladay. Holladay’s first wife had been Ellen Ha nile, another daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Haynes When mod go sapere, had married her sister, ) ac e® sSLep- ps Mae p-mother to her nieces and Holladay was a man of large mea owned a prosperous sawmill, a e tenet ba land in the vicinity of Greenville and was president of the Holladay railroad, which was built primarily to carry the product of his mill to Williamsville, a distance of 18 miles.

Johnson, after awak- ening the saloonkeeper, Hartman, went with him to the home of the sheriff and sur- nepeees. ere are two opinions regarding t . edy in the county, each positive 5 cane ently unshakable. One opinion is that Hole laday—the man of so many good works, @ constant and apparently devout member of the church, a man to whose credit such —_~ eral and constant charity must be gran could not have visited the Johnson home for evil purposes. The other opinion is that every one of the unwritten have done monev no less than kill this man of and philanthropist whom he found with his own eyes invading his home at night. Mrs. Holladay, who, tf the general sta / ments regarding the case are to be bellev was the victim of both an unfaithful Mes band and a false sister, has steadily refused to say a word regarding the tragedy, ex~- cept for the unimportant testimony which she gave on the opening day of the trial, As Johnson Looks in Court.

WITTENBERG VS. MOHRSTADT. es She Delegate, It Is Said, Palmed Off a Roaring Skate on the Cpnstable and Trouble Ensued. There is deep trouble in the Rock Springs neighborhood. It all came about because of a broken-winded old gray gelding which Harry Wittenberg, saloon- keeper and Republican member of the House of Delegates from the Twenty- fourth ward, tried to trade a bay mare, owned by Charles E. Mohrstadt, who is a constable in Justice Cline’s court on Man- chester avenue, and owns an ice and coal yard around the corner on Chouteau ave- nue. Wittenberg claims to have made Mohr- stadt politically; Mohrstadt claims to have made Wittenberg. So there you are. Fach has a strong influence for or against the other, and, as Mohrstadt is decidedly angry, there is likely to be “something do- ing’’ in the Twenty-fourth ward, especially since the Republicans are not particularly strong out that way. As for the horge, Mohrstadt claims that there never was any trade, and charges Wittenberg with trying to force him to ac- cept an old skate that wasn't worth stable room sg, 1, eho srw that there had been a trade, ittenberg won't discuss the mat- ter. He refers inquirers to Mohrstadt. “T wouldn't treat a nigger like Harry tried to do me,” said the big constable when asked about the horse trade. “TL was “ye by Wittenberg’s place the ther night in something of a hurry, for had promised my wife to be home by ont and it was a quarter past then, when ittenberg called me. We had a glass of beer or so, then he bantered me for a horse trade. He said he wanted to swap me a fine grey horse for my bay mare.

Wittenberg repeated several times that he would guarantee the horse to be all right. ‘‘Now, here's one of the curious features of the case: AS soon as I had left his sa- loon Wittenberg took that old plug out of the stable and led him way down to my stables on Chouteau avenue, and without any authority took my mare and left the zray horse in her place’ The night watch- ' horse for ‘ and | Harry said h@ would guarantee him, | man Knew him as an intimate friend of mine, and natural y supposed the exchange was all right. Wittenberg took my ma-e to a tivery stable and told the man in chagge that she was his, and left strict or- ders that she was not to be turned over to anyone else. He stopped on the way, I un- | derstand, and led the mare into his broth- er’s saloon and tied her to the bar. It is said that he made her take a drink, too, but I don’t know about that. “Next day it developed that the gray was so badly wind broken that he wasn't worth $. I sent him back to Wit- tenberg and demanded the mare. He in- sisted that it was a trade and sent word that I couldn't get the mare, and he wouldn't receive the horse. I offered to prove by my deputy. Pohlman. that he said the horse was sound. Just then .Pohlman happened in and Witten- berg referred the matter to him. Pohl- man said: ‘Of course vou said the horse was safe and sound.’ That settled it and after some more kicking Wittenberg told me to go and get the mare. “He still has his old gray horse, which. by the way, he told me belonged to Beck. thouxh I have since learned that he bought it from a trader who warned him that the skate was a roarer, which was a xood deal more than he showed a disposition to do for me."

Finance ART HA Core Hanging in the parlor of Charles Shields’ residence, 453 Collinsville avenue, East St. Louis, is a large photograph, in the center of which is the head of a beautiful child wreathed in golden curls. Grouped about the pretty face and the golden curls is a cluster of floral designs. Visitors to the Shields home who are shown this picture invariably inquire the identity of the pretty child, and how she happened to be photographed in so unique a fashion. There is a story connected with this dain- ty product of the camera which Mr. Shie!ds does not tell to all inquirers. He told it a few nights ago, however, to E. G. Matlack, a neighbor, formerly an editor, now engaged in the printing business in St. Louis. The child, whose face appears in the pho- tograph, Mr. Shields explained to Matlack, was his niece, Miss Frances Simons, who died while visiting at his home. After her death Mr. Shields took the flowers that had decked the white casket to his photograph gallery, and placing a portrait of the little girl in the center of them, had made the quaint picture that he now prizes so high y. The strangest thing about litt.e Frances death, Mr. Shields told the Post-Dispatch in amplifying the story that he had reiated to Mr. Matlack, was that her grandmother, Mrs. Martha Simons, had foreseen her fate in a dream, and had told the Shields family about 10 days before the child died that she would die. At the same time Mrs. Simons informed them that she would die herself a short time thereafter, making. this prediction, too, from adream. Both predictions came true, Mrs. Simons also predicted the death ot! her husband and son siomer, irom other dreams, making four merabcrs in one tam- ily of whose deaths she had been so mys- teriously forewarned. & “It is all very strange to me,’’ said Mr. Shields to the Post-Dispatch. ‘‘Aunt Mat as we called Mrs. Simons, because her name was Martha, seemed to extract faial truths from her dreams. She believed that it was a sign of. death to dream cf muddy water and in the cases where she did dream of water of that sort, she pre- dicted death for the persons in the dream and they all died in a short time after her prediction was made. ‘Originally, I was dreams any more than Now | am constrained some cases theré must be more in than the undirected wanterings ot mind.

She was not a spiritualist, though she did attend one meeting of sprituajists while here. She belonged to the Christian church. “Aunt Mat’s home was for many in Cherryvale, Kan. It was from there that she came to live with us. She was with us about two years prior to her death. It was about six*months before her death that she had her last and doubly fatal dream. “She dreamed that her little granddaugh- ter, Frances, was struggling in a stresm of muddy water. She saw the child maki:g heroic efforts to save herself from belug engulfed, but to no avail. She sank of sicht.

LOUIS fared better than any other large city in the country during the extremely hot period which prevailed between Aug. 1 and Aug. 15, particularly, and which has not yet vanished. The weather observers and the mortuary officers of the great cities best tell the story of the comparative immunity of St. Louis from The Sky-line of Lower New York. We Ue ae eS & Ab Be A oo ed a be ek 2 that city. In Chicago 40 people died during the August hot spell. Forty died in Philadelphia. WHAT OF ST. LOUIS? Only one man died because of the heat, and he was a heavy drinker. Users of alcoholic beverages, it is well known, are peculiarly susceptible to the influence of heat. In Cincinnati 25 persons died from heat last Sunday and the day preceding. WHAT OF THE TEMPERATURE? In New York, according to the official figures of the weather bureau, the highest temperature recorded was 101—and weather bureau temperature is always recorded in the shade, many feet above the hot sidewalks, which absorb and re- tain the heat from one day to another. On the sidewalks of New York the most conservative thermometer reeorded a maximum of 107 degrees during one day, and scarcely a difference was perceptible at night. Men and women dropped in the streets, and babies and children, overcome by the intensity of the heat, dropped from windows to death below. In Philadelphia practically the same conditions prevailed. The highest temperature recorded by the weather bureau was 101 degrees. In Chicago the maximum was 95 degrees. In St. Louis the figure was the same, but the result was far different. I‘orty persons died in Chicago. Only one died in St. Louis. In four cities—New York, Philadelphia, Chicago and Cincinnati—230 persons died in two weeks from heat. One died in St. Louis. In three cities—New York, Philadelphia and Chicago—the aggregate temperature was 297 degrees on the hottest days, an average of 99 degrees. In St. Louis the temperature during the hot spell was 95 degrees. All the facts go to show that St. Louis was the most fortunate city in the United States during the August hot spell. St. Louis came through almost unscathed. Other cities were scourged. ! heat. In New York 125 persons perished by reason of the heat, and during the month of July 500 babies and young children died of diseases superinduced by heat in AAS Ree SOOO Oe Ole oels OOOO OPO Oey OE OPO POO eee eset OOOO Hoo O OL OPO DOPE SODEG+ OE OOOO EL POPES OEE EPODEDEDOD EP Ooo WHAT THE WEATHER MAN SAYS.

Of these one cities have a greater number of tall buildings than has St. LoulS. This will always be true. even VV died. Altogether seven cases have been treated, but of these five were what we call alcoholics. though the temperature and humidity records may not exceed those of St. Louis, as lone as The patient who died was also a heavy drinker, but he was prostrated by the heat while work- this condition prevails. Nine out of ten of the heat prostrations in all cities occur in the business district ing on the street and was not confined in a close room, as were most of the others: The buildings, the sidewalks, the paved streets, retain heat for 24 hours after the more sparsely settled sec- 1 would explain the fact that we have had so few cases of heat prostration by saying that the nights tions of the city have been cooled off by a change of weather. That is all there is to it. In some cases a have been cool and the people aave been able to sleep. When a workingman can have a good night’s rest cool wave comes to the state, to the suburbs and to the larger portion of the city—comes and passes—and he is able to go out in the sun and do his work without much fear of suffering sunstroke. the people downtown never know anything about it. At the hospital we have made splendid arrangements for treating hent patients.

WY Ree ere, SUNDAY MORNING—ST. LOUIS POST-DISPATCH—AUGTST 19, 1900 SHALL THE EXPOSITION BE OPEN ON SUNDAY? co —-@— @ 0-4 4- x) Citizens Have Been Asked to Discuss the Opening on Sunday Afternoons of the Art Galleries Where Tissot’s Paintings of the Life of Christ will be Shown Next Month. See the Inside of the Colored Suppleme HAI.L the Art Gallery of the St. Louis S Exposition be opened on Sundays dur- ing the coming season? Shall the whole Exposition be opened? Shall any part of it be opened? Shall the building be opened long enough on Sundays to permit the public to view the Tissot collection of paintings of the daily life of Jesus Christ” Shall sacred concerts be given in the build- ing on Sunday afternoons? This idea of an open Exposition on Sun- days was presented to a number of promi- nent St. Loulsans, including preachers. They were told that the Tissot collection of paintings from the life of Christ would be shown there next month. The pictures were first exhibited in 1494. In this country they have already been viewed by more than 600,000 people. This work was done by Tissot after he had reached his 50th year. He visited and lestine for several vears, remaining there months at a time, studying the landscape, making character sketches and perfecting himself in the details of life as it was lived there 1900 years ago. Of his object he has written: revisited Pa T wanted to know the truth—to see Jesus of Nazareth as be walked and talked !n jis native haunts. And then to give back to he millions of my fellow-Christians this real conception of the founder of the faith. Jesus has been kept too far away from the Minds and bearts of men. If by my pen and pencil I have made him more real to the millions who worship him from afar, I have accomplished my purpose. Since this ns collection of paintings Is to be exhibited in St. Louis, the question of opening the Exposition that they may be viewed by the masses on Sunday, has Here are the replies of St Louisans to whom the matter has been pre- sented: By REV. B. P. FULLERTON (Cumbzrland Presbyterian), Ed- itor ot the Missionary Record. MOST seriously and emphatically object been agitated. to the opening of any part of the Ex- position building on the Sabbath, either morning or afternoon, and I object for the following reasons: l. few people who want to see the ‘Fissot paintings and will be helped by them can- not see them on week days. This old plea that so many of the poor laboring people are shut out from the privileges granted to the more favored is a hackneyed one and has nothing of argument in it. 2. No sacred concert in connection with the exhibit can possibly make amends for the desecration of the Lord's day. 3. Is it not true, when we analyze the mo- tive prompting the proposition to open the Iexposition on Sunday, that it is mercenary and does not spring from any large de- sire for the religious development for the poor laboring masses? I do not mean to charge the management of the Exhibition with this mercenary spirit, but I know that this mercenary spirit sometimes prompts men to action and_at the same time they are deceived, and that it is the ruling mo- tive in their action. I shall therefore op- pose any proposition to open the Exposition building on the Sabbath in every way pos- sible, because it can result in nothing but harm to that day, whieh is one of the strongholds of our civilization. As a citizen. as a minister and as a Christian, I beg the management not to enter upon a course of conduct which will bring the whole Exposi- tion into serious disrepute. By HENRY W. BOND, Judge of the St. Louis Court of Appeals. HE constitution and laws of Missouri contain a full recognition of the prin- ciples of the Christian religion. Re- spect for the Sabbath is enforced by an ex- prees statute inhibiting its violation and forbidding any labor on the day observed as such, except in case of necessity or charity. The proposition to open the Exposition for a gainful purpose on Sunday is in clear contravention of the law of htis state, not- withstanding the fact that the character ot the exhibits proposed to be shown might be highly elevating to the moral bilities of the beholders. 1. therefore, say no. The Exposition should not be opened to the purchasers of tickets of admission on Rundays. By REV. J. F. CANNON, Pastor of the Grand Avenue Presby- terian Church. | AM gratified to hear that we are to have sensi- the Tissot collection of paintings at the St. Louls Exposition this autumn. My Opinion is that the Managers of the kx- position would do well to adhere to their former policy and keep the doors closed on Sundays. By REV. ). H. YOUNG, Pastor of Centenary M. E. Church South. AM not in favor of opening the Art Ga}l- lery of the Exposition on Sunday: neither do I favor the opening of the other parts of the Exposition or giving sa- cred concerts By N. O. NELSON, Manufacturer. HE Tissot collection of pictures is the best illustration ever yet presented to the world of the life and times and country of Jesus. Traditional relig- fon habitually puts Jesus ona pedestal so bigh that we disconnect his life from the ordinary human life. We make it some- thing impossible to practice These pic- tures make it clear that he lHved Among the people, Uke the people was one of the people-make him, in fact, seem like an elder brother in this work-a-day worid of ours.

APPROVE of opening the Art Gallery on Sunday afternoons from 1 to 6 Oo ciock I regard the inspection of proper pic- tures, especially when they are highly art- istic or of historic interest, and moral as well as generally SOonS, convey instructive les as harmless as book-reading or driv- ing or riding dut to the parks or innocent Sunday diversions. I can see no possible harm in opening the Exposition to the publie on Sundav as no machinery be in other operation. l approve of opening the Art Gallery and in having sacred concerts Sunday after- noons and evenings. I believe that not only are the diversions of studying works of art, which are devoid of all immoral suggestions, and the listen- ing to artistic sacred music on Sundays harmless, but they are of positive moral and intellectual benefit. I believe that provision for such entertainment in large cities has the effect of diverting many people from other places of recreation where, to say the least, neither moral nor intellectual benefit is derived. By HENRY ZIEGENHEIN, Mayor of St. Louis. AM in favor of opening the art gallery | of the Exposition on Sunday for the display of the Tissot paintings, and have no objection to the opening of the whole Exposition and the giving of con- certs. I believe in every citizen being free to follow the beat of his own conscience, provided he disturbs nobody else. I believe in churches; we cannot have too many; but a man is not necessarily tirreligious because he looks at pictures or listens to music on Sunday. In 1000 years from now such narrow ideas as that will not be heard of. The disturbing of religious worship should not be tolerated; but look- ing at pictures and other beautiful and elevating things disturbs no one and bene- fits many. By THOMAS P.

LOUIS — GATHERED ON A FARM NEAR EUREKA, MO OUR HUNDRED AND EIGHTY- KIGHT St. Louis waifs, or children whose parents are unable to give them an outing, have enjoved a two weeks’ vacation in the country since the close of school at the expense of the Children’s In- dustrial Farm Association. Jefore school begins again this fall the number will probably reach 60. In addl- tion to this a number of poor women with small children and babies will probably be treated to an outing by the same organiza- tion before frost comes. This association is three years old. The first year it gave 200 children an outing and the second year 400. For the first two years its farm was located at Sullivan, Mo. This vear the children are being cared for on an &80-acre tract two and one-halg miles from Eureka. It is an ideal spot for an but for the children of fairyland. outing for any one, the tenement it Is a veritable The tract is located in a valley shut in at the head and on two sides by hills. Through the valley runs Clifty Creek and springs abound. The uplands are wooded, and through these natural groves the children, who today number 140, are allowed to roam at will under the su- pervision of two or three young men who the alert to see that they numerous are ever on are not hurt. But it is not only the natural beauty of the region that makes it an ideal place for a summer playground for children from 6 to 12 years of age. The farm ts thorough- ly under cultivation, and improvements have been made by the association which complete the work that nature left undone. A fine swimming pool, in the form of 4 tank, 60x90 feet, has been constructed, In which the youngsters can disport them- selv es / without danger.

It is one of the aims of the association to see that the children are thoroughly vleaned once in their lives. And so at 2 o'clock each aft- ernoon the girls are clad in bathing suits and given an hour tin the pool. At 4 o'clock the boys are given the same treat- ment. Water flows though the pool with a good current and is therefore always pure. After three days of this treatment, chil- dren upon whose face is the accumulated dirt of years, become white, sweet and often times pretty. They are simply trans- formed. Ample provision has been made for feed- ing and housing the youngsters. An im- mense shed-like structure, which contains the dining hall, kitchen, storeroom and as- sembly hall has been bullt for the day and nine cottages afford shelter during the nights. The children are put to bed on straw ticks with ample bedding. Two women, who are also sent down from the tenement district of St. Louls, are as- signed to each cottage and aid in dressing and undressing the little ones. Thus during the course of the summer not only are 6/0 children made happy by the association, but from 60 to 60 women, who otherwise would not get a breath of country air from one year’s end to another, are given a cou- ple of weeks’ breathing spell in the open air. But this big Missouri farm is not only a playground. Itis a training school as well. Children who have been raised amid the dust and smoke and brick pavements of a great city are brought near to nature's heart and given a two-weeks'’ schooling by that greatest of teachers. They are taught how fruit and vegetables grow. For an hour each morning the garden brigade | is oe HEAT FROM HIGH BUILDINGS, AND HUMIDITY KILL HUNDREDS.

N Chicago during the hot spell there were 577 deaths. Of this number 40 were attributed to the heat. There were 101 heat prostrations, and seven human beings were driven insane by the intensity of the sun’s rays. During 43 hours the mercury was above The sum total of the excess of heat during this heated term was 100 de grees, according to the record of the weather bureau. Humidity and heat played havoc with the big industries of Chicago, and many a fur- nace fire was drawn because those who daily teil in the blistering heat could not withstand the combined force of fire and sun. At the Pullman shops 400 men quit work after laboring an hour before the blazing fires. They could not bear the agony. At 8 o'clock one morning a com- mittee appointed by the exhausted men waited upon the superintendent and an- nounced that human endurance could not stand the strain. Entreaties did not avail and the men who feed the furnaces in the machine shops. the brass foundry and the blacksmith shop threw down their els and sought the coolness of their At the fron foundry of the Crane Co., Twelfth and Canal streets, 650 men did no work in the afternoon for several days. ‘The artificial heat is so great that the pro- prietors deemed it wise to suspend opera- tions in the afternoon during the continu- ance of the hot spell.

UNA, Aris., is the hottest town in the Y \'nited States. During four months of the vear the daily temperature ranges from 16 to 125 degrees. Just imagine a village of several hundred adobe, and brick squat one-story houses and store buildings, all with clumsy porches in front, Strewn ulong a dreary red brown roasting bank of a drowsy, muddy stream; where rude thoroughfares straggie up and down a naked hili shimmering under the flercest, emptiest skv you ever saw. That's Yuma The town Is located in the southwestern part of Arizona, on the Colorado river. For }) years it has been the banner hot town of this country. There has always been “a hot time’ in Yuma, day and night. Imagine a region thousands of square miles in area, of yellow sand, quaint cacti, whitened boulders, not ope commanding mountain or shapely prominence—a deso- late, ghastiy desert waste under a fiery sum—and you have the setting of Yuma. Imagine yourself on some vantage spot and were stone overwhelming sunlight, where scantily clad, swarthy Indians sprawl fast asleep on hot earth in a patch of shade, no white person in sight, not a sign of activity anywhere, stores shut, houses bolted and blinded, not a sound heard save a rustling of dried sage brush. And that Is life in Yuma dur- ing a midsummer afternoon. Has St. Louis seemed warm this summer? Listen to these facts concerning Yuma. The summer there has been an average one. From May 14 to°-May 30 the temperature ev- ery afternoon ranged from 93 degrees to 101. Then there was a week of comparative cool- ness; the mercury never rose above 9). From June 7 to June 25 the mercury varied from 105 to 113 degrees. Old Sol then settled down to business, The desert sand dunes had be- come baked, and the foothills were glowing. For six weeks the mercury never was be- low 102, and from that it has gone to 122 de- grees twice. From July 8 to July 20 the av- erage afternoon temperature was 115 de- grees. During nights the mercury has sunk siowly to an average of 105 at about 4 a. m. With the rising of each sun the mercury climbed steadily until about 8 o'clock. The warmest weeks of the year have yet to make their records. Last summer the hottest day in Yuma was Aug. 26, when the mercury touched 127. In September there were severai days when the temperature was at 121, and a few nights when the thermometer never registered lower than 108 degrees. The hottest day ever recorded in Yuma was Aug. 16, 1896. Between dawn and noon the mercury rose from 110 degrees to 123, and at 4 o’clock it reached 129. Yuma is the heart of a region of extinct volcanoes, barren hills and sterile canyons; a region of mirages, Gila monsters and rep- tiles that thrive amid burning alkali wastes and deadly thirsts, where not a green thing in nature may be seen as far as vision Sweeps, except a few sparse cottonwood trees at the railway stations, where a withering white sunshine blazes from out a cloudless sky 12 hours a day, months at & time; where inflamed eyes and blindness ftom the intense sunshine are common; where the earth is so hot that white people can scarcely walk upon it wi-h thin shoes, and where tough range cattle sicken and die in a few weeks. No one lives in Yuma for enjoyment. The trade and teaming from the mines, some uncommonly rich in copper, silver and lead, out in the mountains and foothills, keep the There are 3200 people even old town prosperous. in the village. One-third of them are Mext- cans; the rest are Americans. Some have braved the climate, been enterprising and have accumulated snug fortunes. The town took its name from the old fort here, and it in turn was named from the Yuma tribe of aborigines. HOW SUN'S RAYS AFFECT MANKIND. Hk sun attacks humanity in two differ- ent ways, according to medical au- tnorities One is known as sunstroke, or sirriascis, and the other as heat exhaus- tion, or heatstroke. The two affections are widely different and are treated in different ways. Heat exhaustion is more common than sunstroke. When . person is prostrated from the heat it 1s generally after a prolonged ex- posure to high temperature, and particular- ly when this is combined with physical ex- ertion. It is not a rule that the person so afflicted has been exposed to the direct rays of the sun. but the same exhaustion may come on at night or in crowded and badly ventilated rooms and offices. The same state also follows exposure to great heat, as in the engine rooms and boiler rooms of the grext ocean liners. lapse, restlessness and in severe cases de- lirtum. The surface of the body is cool and the pulse movement smal! and rapid. The temperature, contrary to a popular sup- position, is always low, oftentimes sub- normal or as low as $ or % degrees. In plain solar exhaustion the breathing of the patient is easy, but hurried. The vital forces fall into total collapse, although the senses looking ever a frontier town paralysed in remain entire \ and a bowle Knife as well as any jing | and flick its head off against a tree. She In sunstroke. however, physicians quickly see the difference between a patient suffer- ing from that or, as it is known, thermal fever, and one laboring under the pros- tration from the heat. In sunstrokes there Is complete unconsciousness. The breath of the patient comes rapidiy and is shal- low, labored and stertorous. The pulse is quick and bounding or else very weak. There is a suppression of all glandular ac- tion. Death in this affliction results from asphyxia, or slow falling of the respiration, or else cardiac action. Sunstroke is produced by exposure to excessive heat. It is generally found to occur in persons who, while working hard, are exposed to the sun. Soldiers on the march, with their heavy aceouterment, are peculiarly liable to sunstroke. In this coun- try cases of genuine thermic fever are gen- erally confined to workingmen who are ex- posed and at the same time drinking beer or whisky. In sunstroke the patient may be struck down and die within an hour, with marked symptoms of heart failure and coma. Death may be, on the other hand, instan- taneous, as if the victim had been struck upon the head. The usual form of sun- stroke here comes on during exposure. The unfortunate victim first feels a sting- ing pain in the head, followed by dizziness and a feeling of oppression Occasionally nausea follows, and the vic- tim may have visual disturbances, such as having a colored vision. Insensibility quickly follows, deepening to profound coma. The patient's face is great- ly flushed. The skin emits a peculiar and pungent odor. The pulse Is rapid and full, while the temper: ture ranges: from tut to ‘AMERICAN HEROINE IN FAR-AWAY PEKIN. the survivors of forty-five, who, for two days and two nights, had been repelling the onslaughts of 300 Boxers, and must have perished but for the opportune arrival of SAN FRANCISCO, Cal., Aug. 14.

A relaxation of the muscies occurs, as well as convulsions in many instances. The fatal termination may occur within twenty- four or thirty-six hours after the first symptoms of the stroke appear. Favorable indications of recovery are re- turning consciousness and a fall of the fever, Recovery may in many cases be com- plete, but the majority of those treated are prone to remarkable after effects. The most constant of these after effects is a permanent inability of the person so smit- ten to withstand hot weather. Such per- sons become restless and uneasy when the thermometer registers in the neighborhood of 80 degrees Fahrenheit in the shade. There is often after a stroke loss of power of mental concentration and a failing of memory, as well as other strange results. Occasionally convulsions and marked men- tal disturbances develop. In cases of simple heat prostration, the victim is placed on the stretcher and in the wagon, and the mad drive for the hospital is begun. The surgeon first loos- ens the clothing from the neck of the pa- tient, who is kept in a recumbent posi- tion. If the heart action is alarmingly weak the use of the strongest stimulant, nitro-glycerine, is resorted to hypodermic- ally. It is no joke, either, the administer- ing of a hypodermic injection in a plung- ing, swinging ambulance, but this treat- ment is often resorted to that a life may be saved. Constant fanning is Kept up. At the hospital the patient is stripped and wrapped in a sheet and kept in a coo] room. He is fanned constantly, and whisky or digitalis 1s administered hypodemrically. Respiration is kept as near normal as pos- sible, and in a comparatively short while the sufferer comes out of the semi-coma- tose state. Heat prostration patients are almost al- ways discharged several hours after they are received. They may feel weak and ex- hausted for a few days afterward, but nog more serious results. follow. When the surgeon receives a sunstroke patient his method of procedure is- entire- ly different, and practically the reverse of the foregoing method. Every measure 1s taken to reduce the flery temperature of the patient. An ice bath is kept in constant readiness. The patient Is rapidly stripped and laid in this tub, and pieces of ice packed about his body. A specially con- structed device, called an ice-cap, is kept upon the patient’s head. This treatment ts continued until the temperature falls. If an ice bath is impossible, the nude body of the sufferer may be ironed with blocks of ice and the ice cap applied. Hypodermic injections of quinine may be given. After the ice bath, that the rise of temperature may be avoided, the patient {s wrapped in a sheet dipped in ice water and cold douches are repeatedly given upon the head and back of the neck. When the sufferer re- gains consciousness, if he ever does, he 1s made to drink large quantities of ice water. There is no way to avoid sunstroke or heat prostration except by Keeping away from hot temperatures. The chief axiom in the unwritten rules for avoidance of the disease is to leave severely alone all alcoholic beverages.

Many a time she accom- panied her brother to the Shell Mound rifle ranges, and the way she scored bull’s-eyes augured ill for whoever might advance with hostile intents while she had a rifle in her hands. Word reached Pekin éarly in June that a company of French railway officials in the town of Chang-Hsin-Tien, were surrounded by Boxers and in peril of thelr lives. There was grief in the Kuropean colony, but it did not occur to anybody that a rescue might be effected—not until the hotelkeep- er's Californian wife spoke up and @maid she'd lead an expedition herself. And she did. Aided by the women of the various embassies, she organized a fighting force of nine. With her rifie on her shoulder and a cartridge belt about her waist, she marched forth at its head to the rescue of the Frenchmen. The French minister, M. Pichon, obtained from the Chinese. government a military escort for the little expedition, and it de- parted from Pekin with much eclat. Mrs. Chamont and her fighting men en- countered great difficulties and dangers. At Chang-Hein-Tien they found forty Europ- eans, the force from the capital. There was great rejoicing at the embassies when the rescued men were brought in, and Mrs. Chamont received all the honors due to a heroine. Her husband's establishment ts the only foreign hotel in Pekin. Chamont has been in China fourteen years and holds the rank of mandarin, conferred on him by Li Hung That, however, would not save him from massacre if the Boxers overran the Chang. foreign quarter The hotel had a small beginning when envoys were first admitted to Pe- kin, but it is now quite extensive, afford- ing, as it does, the only available accommo- dation for European and American tourists.

They learn how the cows are milked and butter is made, and they learn the difference between the taste of fresh frult and vegetables and that sold in the market stalls in the tenement @is- tricts. And three times a day they sit down te a bountiful table. The diet is largely ce- reals and vegetables. Fresh meat is served only twice a week. Many of the children do not like this at first, having been fed at home largely on meat, but they soon come to prefer the vegetables, and you can fairly see them grow. Four vegetables, with eggs and milk and some kind of pudding are served at each noonday meal, and there is no limit to the amount. There is no Oliver Twist courage necessary to ask for more as often as the child wants it. All that it aske@ of the children is that they shall be polite, clean and obedient. To always be the last of these Is the harde est thing most of the children have to do A large majority. of them do not seem to ‘understand what it means to mind. But they learn, and if they could only remain at the farm longer they would make better children. The only real unhappiness the children suffer is from homesickness—a malady from which grown persons are not always free. For the first two or three days some of the children are frequently right mise erable. They beg to be taken home, and sometimes it seems right cruel not to heed their requests. Occasionally one is téld the superintendent will see its parents and if they desire the child may go home. Invaril- ably when the superintendent returns from town the child has recovered and doesn't want to go home. At such times they are always allowed to write, and some of their letters are entertaining and amusing. They are encouraged also to write home fre- quently, but most of them are too busy to find time.

INDIANAPOLIS, Aug. li Special Correspondence of the Sunday Post-Dispatch. ' J. T. JEUP, city engineer, has re- BR turned from a tour of several West- ™ ern cities, where he went to exam- ine bridges, pavements and other kinds of public work. He was much [Interested in the plan at St Louis by which the city makes its own 4s- phalt repairs. It is one of the few cities In the country that have their own plants. No new pavements are ijiaid by the city, the municipal operations thus far being con- fined to patching. Mr. Jeup was so favor- ably struck that he may, when the work of asphalt repairing becomes a little more ex- tensive here, recommend that Indianapolis put In a similiar plant. The entire plant at St. Louls, with tools, he saye, cost only $1000. It consists of four large pans, in which old asphalt taken up from the streets is put and melted. If this old material is not rich enough asphaltic ce- ment is added. The city obtains its oid as- phalt from the street raliway company, when changes are made in the tracks and pavement has to be taken up, and from cuts made by the city lteelf for sewers and the like Mr. Jeup says he saw great piles of it heaped up at the plant, and that 8t. Louls obtains nearly enough tn this way to make all its repairs. When there is not enough old asphalt the city buys Kentucky rock asphalt, which costs $6.50 a ton, with which is mixed proper quantities of lime- tone and sand. Mr. Jeup says the advantage to the ottd in owning its plant is, first, In cheapness. In St. Louls repair work la done for from 63 to ® cents a square yard, whereas here, under the contract system. it costs §1.10. There {ts also an advantage, he says, in the fact thet by this method the city can make Kae repairs whenever necessary with- out having to walt on the asphalt company, because ite men are at work on some oOln- er street. Asphaitic cement would cost more here than in St. Louis, because it is made in St. Louis, and the freight wouid be an item of expense, but still the city engineer thinks a municipal p.ant wouid be a great saving. He would advocate also, he says, the purchase of a five-ton steam roiier. In St. Louls the repair work fs not rolied and Is consequently somewhat rough. Buch a roller would cost about Siw. Mr. Jeup eays he saw some asphalt pave- ment in Topeka, Kan., that was laid M4 years ago, and is stil in good condition. In Kansas Clty, he says, soft asphalt is being used with good results, there being little cracking. In both Kansas City and St. Louls, he says. where there are eiec- tric cars in the downtown streets, the poles are at the sides of the etreets. He ¢x- amined carefully the large Melan arch bridge at Topeka. fince I have a little time before I eat supper. Well, I have to go and eat supper. Goodby.

Each evening there is some little entertainment in the same place, the children taking part. Much care is taken In selecting the chile dren. They are obtained through the Prov- ident Association, through the police, through the various associations, from all denominations, and from perseral work of members of the association. Tomorrow @ fresh batch of about 20 will go down from one of the Hebrew organizations, and there are at present 20 at the farm picked up by the police department. It ts also the aim of the association as far as possible to take the children of poor families and widows, where the keep of a child for two weeks ts a big item. The association is strictly non-sec- tarian, and its aim is simply to help the children to become better citizens. Some children have been taken two seasons, and sa well do some of them enjoy themselves that they try all sorts of ways to get to the farm a second time in one season. This, however, Is not permitted. The association was originally formed for the purpose of instituting an industrial home to which tncorrigible children could be sent instead of to penal institutions. This plan was found, however, to take time, and it was finally decided that the quickest way to get to work in the desired field was by the present system of summer outings. Eventually, however, it {s expected that the original plan will be carried out and that the summer outing feature will be only @& side issue. The present officers and direc- tors are: Frank Wyman, president; Ernst Robyn, first vice-president; Max Bodenhelmer, sec- ond vice-president; Hustor | Crittenden, third vice-president; George A: *Roth, “treas- urer; A.

Hattie Thompson, who has charge of that par§ of the care of the children that naturally falls to a woman. The resident physician is Dr. E. L. Monroe. Mr. Verdier lives on the farm with his wife. He is there every night and epends three days of the wees on the place. ‘The work ts growing.” he told the Sun< day Post-Dispatch. “Each year we are giving a fresh air outing to more children, St. Louls {ts away behind other cities In this matter, but we hope soon to be better equipped.

In the long run the g00d man succeeds and the bad man falils.’’ If this be true, how can his preciding statement be true, where he says: ‘There is no such thing as living in soul-sin up to the day of death— wallowing in wantonness, stifling the spirit in sensuality, clutching at gold and murdering the bodies and souls of one’s brother to get it—and then by experiencing religion or by receiving ex- treme unction at the last hour go straight inte heaven.” Do these murdered bodies and souls get what they deserve? Did they “succeed” or did they deserve to be murdered? How about those who are born handicapped with insanity, idiocy, blind- ness? Did they bring it on themselves? Mr. Newton says heaven and hell are in our minds, but speaks of them as “over there,’ “tn the world of space,” and yet again as places where “industries,"’ “homes,’’ “governments” and churches exist. ‘ Can language be more unthinkable than this— more untrue to any legitimate use of words? To these heavens and hells and factories and mes and governments and future lives with all the paraphernalia of this one are fully as “ar- chaic, childish and unthinkable,’’quite as much grajultous assumptions of positive knowledge where knowledge does not exist, as is that older theory which he brands as unthinkable and un- true. pone is a deadlock pure and simple. such an issue of the conference it is regarded as be- promising for lasting peace upon some future adjustment or committee as in the nature interested in the result. appeals to It by both or- fair and of the facts at is- has an opening to com- it was reached through the ig- outsider or consideration or indifference of an This fact gives the decision force.

Special Correspondence of the Sunday Post-Dispatch. | OUND together as clos as as Siamese twins ace Michael James Higgins and James Michael Higgins, twin sons ot Mrs. Annie Higgins of 19 Clark street. The difference between these twins and the Siamese, however, is that while the pair from Siam were bound by a physical tie the Higgins twins are bound by a mental bond. But the connection is none the less firm and immovable. Although bound together by a muscular growth the Slamese twins had each a dis- tinct personality. They frequently dis- agreed and not infrequently came to blows. The Higgins twins are physically separate, but they appear to have one personality, their likes and dislikes being much the same. Thoy cannot bear to be apart. They have twin souls. The Higgins twins are known to every one in Trenton as Mickey-Jim and Jimmy-Mike. Never were there twins that looked so much alike when they were babies as did her lit- tle Mikey-Jim and Jimmy-Mike, declares Mrs. Higgins. ‘Sure, an’ until they were old enough to talk and answer back to their names, didn't I have to tle Mikey-Jim’'s ar- rum with blue ribbon and Jimmy-Mike's with pink, so's to tell which from t'other. and I've me doubts yet whether I mightn't have got them mixed after Father Riiey christened them."’ Mikey-Jim and Jimmy-Mike Higgins were far and away the most popular youths tn the whole parish. They were handsome boys and they were good boys, and Father Riley of the Church of the Sacred Heart had no more dutiful parishioners. But as they grew to manhood a great crisis came into their lives. Mikey-Jim fell in love with pretty Mary Dunning of South Trenton, who was also a faithful devotee at Father Riley's church. With the falling tn love and marriage of Mikey-Jim the bond that had existed be- tween the brothers was broken, and not a week after the wedding Jimmy-Mike be- came an inveterate drinker. It was then discovered that Jimmy-Mike had an uncontrollable telepathic influence over Mikey-Jim. But after he had won the girl of his choice and should have been ready to settle down to the placid enjoyment of the dainty and well ordered home presided over by Mary Dunning, Mikey-Jim confessed to himself and to his family that he was unhappy sep- - erated from Jimmy-Mike, In just one ’ : td ies NER Ms Op ea Kat ae ree al ak a EE .

The once beauti- ful Mary Dunning, now sad eved and faded, bore four other children, and these were taken one by one—all except one baby girl. Summer Mary Dunning died, with a prayer on her lips that the lives she had been the innocent cause of dividing might be again reunited. Last Nor was the young wife’s body cold in her grave before both brothers experienced a re- turn of the same old time telepathic rela- tionship. Despite the genuine sorrow of both the husband and brother-in-law, they were in a happier frame of mind than either had known since ‘‘Mikey-Jim’s"’ marriage, eight long, long years before. The old re- lationship was renewed, and the brothers became inseparable companions, as in boy- hood days. In order to help him to conquer his @rink habit, “Jimmy-Mike’’ left the tron works where he had been employed for years and went to work for an ice dealer, W. L. Phil- lips.

This people is called Babists, and the head of their religion is Abbas Abdel Beha, ‘“‘the center of light,” who was born in 1844, and who lives at the town of Acre, in Syria. It is a peculiar fact that it was in the year 1844 that the sect known as the Millerites, who looked for the second coming of Christ, was organized in the United States. In this country the Babists have several headquarters. In New York City they meet at Carnegie Hall. Chicago, where the Rev.

Several of the New York mem- bers of the faith have ‘‘tablets”’ or personal letters from Abbas Abdel Beha, and these they regard as more valuable than gold or precious stones. } Professor E. G. Browne of Cambridge University, who is an authority on Persia and who has visited Abbas Effendi at his home In Acre, describes him as a man of fine presence and wonderful magnetism. His skin is of that peculiar whiteness char- acteristic of the Persian, and his slightly sunken cheeks give him a studious, though not an ascetic appearance. His beard is black and is of medium length, and he wears a plain white robe and turban. Most remarkable of his features, according to Prof. Browne, are his eyes.

While in advance of his regiment, then the Thirty-sixth Infan- try Volunteers, of which he was colonel, he suddenly was opened upon. by the insur- gents who were in ambush. It was near Porac and was the beginning of a hot It- tle fight. The colonel, armed only with his pistol, charged a Filipino outpost and com- pelled the surrender of a captain and two privates, being all the time under a heavy fire from the other “‘little brown men” who were concealed in a bamboo thicket. fra C.

One forgotten little fight of the war with Spain was that at Tayabacoa, a little port in Cuba, at which a landing was attempted on June 30, 1898. A small force succeeded in landing, but Wis compelled to withdraw to the boats, leaving several killed and wounded in the hands of the Spaniards. Corporal William H. Tompkins of the Tenth Cavalry and Private Dennis Bell of the same regiment (this is a colored regi- ment) went ashore of their own volition and rescued their wounded comrades. Bev- eral attempts to rescue the wounded and prevent their falling into the hands of the Spaniards had been frustrated before, but these brave men did the work, and received therefor the medal. In the same year of the war with Spain— but after it was over—occurred the last In- dian outbreak which this country has seen. It was rather a small rebellion than an out- break, for the Indians were semi-civil A tribe living on an island In Leech 6, Minnesota, suddenly were stirred to rapine and murder. Troops were hurried there, The affair was soon over and ts now for- gotten. When the first detachment arrived at the tsland In Leech Lake there was 8 hot fight between them and the Indians, and for six hours the Indians heid the troops at bay. Oscar Burkhard, for expos- ing himself recklessly throughout that siz hours of combat, received the medal. He was a hospital steward and not called upos to be a “combatant” by the regulations This made the fact of his exposing himeelf to the hot fire of the Indians all the more admirable, worthy and deserving. a INDEPENDENCE, or of the ultra loyal element of the Liberal party.

BUNDAY MORNING—QT. “a LOUIS POST-DISPATCH—AUGUST 19, 1906 _— ~——— ~ ne OF CINCINNATI. MAY MARK AIELENE ZIMMEKPAN a aa a a ae ss ee te ees A She Is Original in All That She Does and Has Interested Her Fellow Townsmen by Many Flights Away From . the Ordinary. CINCINNATI, Aug. 17. Special Correspondence of the Sunday Post-Dispatch. ELENE ZIMMERMAN of Cincinnati may not marry the Duke of Man- chester, but persistent rumor from London and New York says she will. She has announced that her father has no lik- ing for foreigners and that she is not en- gaged to the duke, but rumor will not down. A “personal friend’’ of the duke ts said to have given this version of the present sit- uation—there was an informa! engagement when the duke thought Miss Zimmerman's father worth $10,000 000, but when he found the fortune was only $500,000 the ducal ar- dor cogied. The lady is said to be the most interest- ing and most discussed woman in Cincin- nati since Mrs. Bellamy Storer went to Spain. Miss Zimmerman first met the duke at a fancy dress ball. He wore pink fleshings and a bathrobe, in the character of a bath- er. She was attired as “‘The Belle of New York.” Their courtship took place in this country and in Europe, and the duke had several rivals. She would not accept an engagement ring, ‘but as a betrothal pledge became the mis- tress of a bull terrier presented to her by the duke. Originalities such as these do not aston- ish the friends’ of the girl who espoused the philosophy of a Hindoo Mahatma, and allowed her zeal to carry her to an em tional excess which seemed to breathe of something more human than occult. As for the duke, he will be following the example of his father if he captures an American bride. His mother was the beau- tiful Consuela Yznaga of New York. Her married life was very unhappy. ‘he young duke has been looking for a rich wife since he reached his majority. Miss May Goelet and Miss Pauline Astor are among those to whom he has paid his addresses. Bets have been laid in London and Paris on both sides. At present the odds are heavily on the side of the duke. Helene Zimmerman is a contradiction. A beautiful girl with gold hair, of artistic tastes, with no trace of affectation, a love of pale pinks and blues in and a leaning toward the church, which shows itself in the pattern of the stained glass windows in her boudoir—this on the one hand. On the other a golfer, winner of six prizes (one with Tom Morris the veteran golfer of St. Andrews links, at St. Andrews, Scot- land), a health culture girl, a fearless horsewoman, owner of such horses as “Cloverdale” and ‘‘Rebecca 8.,"’ mistress of a stud farm with a racecourse, all its own, at Hillsboro. O., and has always, from the time she stepped out of baby clothes, bent all the members of her family to her own will. The woman who would have gone around the world to follow a love that has never yet been understood by her friends; the woman who engaged herself to a duke with the most unique engagement ring that lovers ever saw; the woman who is now bringing all her imperious will to bear to bring about consent to her alliance with the House of Manchester. From her mother’s side, Helene Zimmer- man gets the dogged strain of the Scot and the fire of the French Huguenot. Her great- grandfather on her mother’s side was Squire Igon. From her father's side she gets her love of literature. Here the lines run back to George Eliot. George Eliot's mother was a Pearson. She married Robert Evans. George Eliot's name was Mary Anne Evans. Abraham Evans, the father of Helene’s mother, was Robert Evans’ first cousin. It was from her mother that Helene Zim- merman got her intense religious nature. Every tableau, chalice and glass in St. Paul's Cathedral, in Cincinnati, with the fine memorial window of St. Agnes and Bt. Barbara, which fills a side of the church, speaks of the munificence of Marietta Zim- merman, her mother. Born to great wealth, with all her desires gratified, all her wants studied, small won- der that Helene Zimmerman grew up a gelf-willed, masterful, rebellious girl. Yet her natural sweetness made her loved wherever she went. She accepted the world as made for her. No pains were spared on her ‘education. Her mother died when she was but 5 years old, and since then she has been un- der the care of her Aunt Helena. who was her godmother. At 7 she was taken abroad and entered the Convent of the Assumption at Auteuil. near Paris. Here she had her own way with the sisters, who adored her, admitting to her special comradeship only one girl—Miss Ethel Forbes Morgan—whose father is master of the hounds at Pau. L: ter she studied music under Trabadello, who taught Eames, Sanderson and Nordica, Tt was the advent in America of that strange, mellow-mouthed Hindoo poet and philosopher, the Swami Vivekananda, which changed the current of Helene Zim- merman's whole life. To her intense tem- perament, to hear and see the Swami was to be Interested, and to be Interested was to study. She attended his lectures and read his books. ; The Swami was from time to time vis- ited by Hindoos from his native land whose fine features and culture betokened them of superior education. One of these was a young East Indian prince, a descendant of a tong line of Rajahs—a man of singdlar beauty and attraction. To just what an ex- tent the girl was attracted by the intellect- ual subtleties of this strange Hindoo prophet and just how much of her grow- ing interest was centered in the younger prince, WAS A matter of great speculation among her friends. Certain it ts that with the latter's advent the interest which had been only an intellectual one was quickly merged into a wave of hot enthusiasm. In her room she had painted the four sayings of the Swami! philosophy: Bach soul is potentially divine. The goal is to manifest this divinity with- dress, i- psychic control, or philosophy, by one, oF more, or all of these—and be free. This tg the whole of religion. Doctrines, of dogmas, or rituals, or books, or temples, or forms, are but secondary details. The prince guided her in her researches and. under the Swami, became her master. He- gave her the ‘Vedanta Philosophy,’ the lectures on Raja Yoga. This book be- came her Bible. She adopted it for her own, as Amelie Rives did the ‘““Kreutzer Sonata.” On the flyleaf of this volume are still these sentences, written in the giver’s hand: “Neither mind nor body must be mas- ter.’’ ™ lave a room set apart.” “There is a thought we call instinct.” “Every part of the body can be filled with vital force.”’ Those who knew Helene Zimmerman’s fiery temperament and her strong religious learning were astonished at the flerce earnestness with which she set herself to assimilate this new religion. Every morn- ing she rose before the sun to practice the exercises of the ‘“‘Pranayama.” These were the bodily exercises taugnt by the Brahmins. Their use is intended to destroy the worldly instincts, which make impossible the lofty calm which breeds contemplation. These, as given in the sa- cred books, are as follows: PRANAYAMA. 1. Breathe, and join to rhythmic breaths, the word ‘‘Om’’ or some sacred word. Slowly fill the lungs through the Ida (the left nostril) and concentrate the mind on the nerve current. 3. Imagine that you are slowly drawing that nerve current with the breath through the other side, then slowly throw it out through the right nostril. 4. Do this four times, morning and even- am Draw in four seconds, hold itn 16 sec- on’ds; then throw out in eight seconds. This makes one Panayama. These eexrcises were supposed to free the soul from taint. Strange repression for a young woman whose every whim had be- tokened her full to the brim of bounding life, Written in her own hand, on an upright panel of her own writing desk, ts the gos- pel of this repression. It is heavily under- scored, as though she wished to keep its teaching ever before her mind: ” *--. The highest energy of the human body ts “Ojas."’ Baser energies, when checked, be- come changed into Ojas. There must be erfect chastity in thought, word and deed. Vithout it the practice of Raja Yoga is dangerous and may. lead to insanity. If peo om practice Raja Yoga and are uot thus, Ow can they become Yogis? Such was Helene Zimmerman’s gospel in that year of strange fascination for the Swami and his handsome Hindoo follower. There were those among her friends who saw whither this as tending, who whis- pered of hypnotism and all were devoutly thankful when Vivekananda and the young Rajah left America for their native land. They believed then that the spell would be broken. But the absence of the Swami made things worse. Apparently his mental con- trol over her was just as strong in Bom- bay as it had been in New York. She pined and fell away and the doctors advised a change of climate. Then, when consulted as to direction, the young woman an- nounced firmly that she was going to India. No coaxing or persuasion could bend her. She declared she would go to India if she had to go alone, and befote her inflexible determination family opposition at last broke down and she started for Europe with her aunt. This was in last September. A short stay was made in London, and here a strange thing occurred. Stopping at the same hotel were two Hindoo noblemen, guests of state, just arrived frob Hindo- stan. From them she learned that the Swami Vivekananda was dead. She then confessed to her aunt that her sudden de- termination to visit India had been due to the fact that she had felt the lapse of the Swami's control over her and wished to es- tablish it by nearness. But with the news of hia death came a complete reaction. The old fascination faded out. She settled down to a life of se- clusion in her London hotel, seeing none. Everything was done to tempt her out again into society, and in the end this plan succeeded. Her meeting with the young Duke of Manchester opened a new era to her life, It was at Dinard, in Brittany, at the cos- tume ball given at the New Club, by Mrs. Hughes Halett. Miss Zimmerman was at- tired as the ‘‘Belle of New York,” repre- senting Edna May. As she came down the broad staircase the orchestra struck up airs from the score of the piece. At the moment she entered the room Manchester entered from another door in pink fleshings and a bathrobe, representing a “a bather.”’ It will be remembered that the daring conceit struck the company as being be- yond the bounds of propriety, and the duke was asked to retire by the committee. The entry. however, had been made. The two had been face to face. And the duke did not forget. He was presented to Miss Evans, the aunt of Miss Zimmerman, and made himself as fascinating that he was given the entree to their house in Paris. There, later in the season, the two young people were much together, and the duke pressed his lovmaking with ardor. Their mutual fascination was the theme of much pleas- ant gossip. . It was noticed that Miss Zimmerman in- stead of referring to him by his own inti!- mate name habitually called him “Gracie.” No one could guess why, but at last Mrs. Brown-Potter gave the clew to the riddle. It seems that while the duke was vis'ting at Bray Lodge, Mrs. Potter's new country house on the Thames. a letter came for him addressed ‘‘His Grace, the Duke of Manchester.” This caught Miss Zimmer- man’s fancy, and she immediately dubbed him “Gracie” behind his back. This was early in their acquaintance, and the name has stuck. The duke made progress in Paris, but it was not all plain sailing. One of his rivais was Prince Lubecki, a Pole. and an inti- mate friend of De Retgkes. Lubecki has known her for years. The first time he saw Miss Zimmerman on the street, when she was a schoolgirl, he followed her to her 7 ' Py UALS mH Hi o . ente Ninisiait! i hand. He then thought her portionless, and offered, should she marry him, to give her a dot of two million francs. He is still sin- gie, is still a constant suitor and has never withdrawn his offer. The duke and Prince Lubecki met in July tn Lady Meux’s apart- ments in Paris, but those who had prom- ised themselves a choice ‘‘scene’’ were dis- appointed. The duke was calm and the prince no more than icy Before Miss Zimmerman left the capital Manchester had proposed to her.

HAT famine stalks abroad in India, despite the falling of rain, is vouched for by all travelers returning from the stricken land. Help is still needed. and immediate help at that. Relief committ: all over the country are increasing, rather than decreasing, their efforts to collect money for the starving millions. The cipal agency for the receiving and distrib- uting of money for the sufferers, the Chri tian Herald of New York, is in receipt of some $3000 a day and is forwarding the cash as fast as it is received. At the Bible House, the office of the paper, a large force is employed to open and sort the huge mail that comes addressed to the Indian famine relief work. Every remittance is promptly acknowledged in print. Dr. T. DeWitt Tal- mage, the editor, is in Europe addressing great audiences in behalf of the relief fund. In this country from all sources probably @ne million dollars has already been col- lected and forwarded to the committees, who distribute the money in India. Much more money is needed to save the breadless ones from death and to take care of the half million helpless orphans leit by par- ents who have already perished. Dr. Louis Klopsch. who recently returned from India, gives a chapter from his per- sonal experiences, as follows: By DR. LOUIS KLOPSCH.

We had come to see the famine fields and our time was getting short and every moment of it was mortgaged in advance up to the hour of our departure. Relief operations were of immediate and urgent itmportance while sightseeing could be deferred.

We then wended our way through the narrow, dirty streets of the capital to the place where once the poorhouse was located, but on our arrival there we were informed that, ow- ing to the abnormal increase in the number of its inmates, it had been removed to more capacious quarters a mile off. Thither we directed our steps and in due time we reached the antithesis of the Gaekwars palace. As rich as were his quarters, so destitute was the poorhouse. In my note- book I wrote a line that reads’ ‘‘This is the worst I have yet seen.’ and as [ recall’it now, I marvel that I-ever had the courage to pass into and through the filthy wards, and more filthy yard that constituted this shocking blot on civilization. sence. of « () I= Spent a I had become accustomed to sights nauSse- ating and revolting. but the Baroda poor- house stands out as the most terrible con- giomeration of abject misery that ever met my gaze.

Never, never shall I forget that sad experience. But what we saw in the first ward was only a specimen of all the others. We traveled from ward to ward only to repeat the same experience. Our heartstrings were wrung until the ev- er-present consciousness of our own utter helplessness became so oppressive that a continuation of the tour threatened to un- nerve us. We stepped out into the square skirted by the bamboo enclosure and into the brazen sun. There before us on the ground without shade or protection of any Find, stark naked, lay a number of women in the last, throes of the cholera. Two of them were moaning piteously. They seemed un- conscious, yet the contortions of their bodies indicated that they were suffering intense pain. We called an attendant and ordered him to carry the women under shelter from the burning rays. We did not stop to think that we lacked authority to enforce our demands. Fortu- nately, there was no objection, and the women were one by one carried under a roof. One of them was practically dead, and at our request a few rags were thrown over her for decency'’s sake. She was novi removed, and then and there she died. We had seen cnough. We were anxious to get away. But it occurred to us that thus far chiidren had been in evidence. So we made inquiry concerning them and learned that they were kept in what is termed the kitchen. We asked to be shown there kitchen in the Baroda poorh seen to realized.

Not a cry escaped their lips The place was as silent the abode of death. Hardly a hand stirred. Not a sound wes heard. With the exception of the biink- ing of the cyelids there was no indication of life. Had our own eyes been blind we could have passed this place in tetal ignorance of the presence of a living beifig We walked in and no one paid the slightest attention to our movements. The Hindoo seemed ehildren. The sanitary the kitchen were one. We entered and cau- tiously advanced step by step, zig-zag fashion, in our efforts to escape pollution. We reached the center of the enclosure. The Hindoo looked on silently. The whole concern seemed dazed. We ourselves were dazed. Stupor was creeping upon us. Death seemed to be encircling the Baroda kitchen and all it contained, first mercifully be- numbing the senses as the surgeon admin- isters an anesthetic before he performs the operation. io ° The se must De be enclosure turbaned ipervi ndoo, sat 30 all them ther CouUn- mostly was con ati- themselves on on poor ery as by lifeless as the conveniences and as Suddenly there was a stir. Two men bear- ing a can of milk appeared in front of the Baroda tent. The children became efn- mated. The Hindoo revived. He came over to where we were standing and informed us that milk was to be given to the feebler children. We followed him to the entrance and watched its distribution. As soon as some of the tin cups were fille@ the chil- dren scrambled for them. There was not enough for more than a fourth of the num- ber, and the more vigorous ones got what there was. The feebler ones went with- out it. Some of them were too weak to rise. They cried inaudibly, but their grief was more pitiful than if it had sought noisy ex; pression. Perhaps punishment awaited ev- ery demonstration on their part, and hence they dared not complain. God only knows. We protested against the totally inade- quate supply of milk and lack of proper management. The Hindoo explained that AFFLICTS INDIA # SPITE OF THE RAINS more milk would be served tn the evening.

Mothers sway xt to and fro moante ing unintelligible petitions. Children prostrated chemselves to the ground chatt« — in a strange tongue and with frightful repidity of utterance the Story of their woes, though anxious to tell all before we made our escape. “O my king.’’ cried they; “it will be very well with you if you will help us, for we are very, very hungry.” And driven to despair at the thought that their appeal perhaps lacked eloquence or earnestness, they slapped their hollow stomachs and persua- sively added, “I'm starving—if you will help me God will give you many children.” My heart almost sank within me. Why should I have been called to witness all this sufferirg? Why not some wealthy man, who with a stroke of the pen could fill these empty stomachs and yet never miss the cost? I took one of the children in my arms. The mother said it was ten years of age. It could not have weighed more than thirty pounds. It was a skeleton, ab- solutely denuded of flesh. The large gliis- tehing eyes were fixed on mine, as though eager to catch the promise of help. And yet I could not give any, for I remembered my experience at the gate. A rupee given at this moment might mean death for these people were desperate. They were beyond reasoning. Their own sufferings and their children’s woes had driven them nearly mad. If help was to be given it had to be given generally and the coin I had with me would not have satisfied a measurable frac- tion of the requirements. I handed the child back to its mother. It was but a mat- ter of hours, and long before I left India for home the vultures had devoured or the flames consumed all that was left when the catastrophe overtok it. As I write this I verily belleve that not one of the 1200 who were in the Baroda poorhouse that morning ever came out alive. It was a veritable deadhouse, and those who once entered seemed hopelessly doomed. This is the last of my letters descriptive of my tour of the famine fields of starving India. ‘‘Ma-bab’’ rings in my ears. Would to God I had the means to be father and mother to them all and give them enough to stay the pangs of hunger until Provi- dence graciously sends a harvest so gen- eral and abundant that it shall satisfy ev- ery hungry man, woman and child tn starve ing India. LOUIS KLOPSCH. ones bodies the down out as = ’ ABANDONED QUARRIES, pr nerey Ve rae R77 NARHET SOT H® famous Trocadero in Paris was built by French engineers out of an abandoned stone quarry. St. Louis could well have something of the same kind, for she has more abandoned stone quarries within the city limits than any other city in the United States. The idea of establishing a theater in an abandoned quarry has not been given much thought in St. Louis, for the reason that mone of the quarries not in use are near enough to the city’s center. But one man has thought of putting a number of the quarries that are now being used as a dumping ground to pratical use, should the World's Fair be located in the northwest- ern part of the city. Instead of locating the grounds near the river, as some have suggested, this citizen . Is In favor of locating the Fair Grounds in the northwestern part of the city and con- necting several abandoned stone quarries, making one large lake, covering forty or fifty acres. The gentleman being thorough- ly conversant with this kind of work, says the plan is feasible. + St. Louis at one time had in the neigh- borhood of fifty stone quarries tn opera- tion. In these quarries 5000 men were em- ployed, but owing to various reasons the industry is being abandoned and there are left a large number of holes in the ground, some of them nearly ° feet deep. They are now being used for dumping grounds, dirt taken from the streets and earth from excavations necessary to the erection of new buildings, being hauled to them. These holes would fast fill with water were not pumps kept constantly at work, for in all of them are numerous springs. to foundations as well as the superstruo- ture of some of the large buildings in the city have been quarried. Churches and res!- dences have been built with this stone and many of the best streets have been macad- amized with it. The oldest quarry in the city {s that of the Hill-O’Meara Construction Co., which occupies the block surrounded by Parnell, Twenty-fifth, Warren and Montgomery streets. This quarry was in operation for 50 years prior to 1892, when it was aban- doned and given up to a dumping ground. It is believed that the hole will be filled by Jan. 1. 1991, thus requiring elght years to replace with dirt the many thousands of cubic feet of solid rock taken from it in 50 years. At one time the city officials came to the conclusion that foreign stone was better for curbing purposes and considerable of it has been imported to St. Louis. A gen- tleman connected with one of the largest construction companies of the city is au- thority for the statement that this foreign stone is not nearly so good as that taken from the local quarries. He says curbing bullt from stone taken from quarries wjthin the city Iimits 20 years ago is now in better condition than much of that shipped to St Loute within the past ten years. This he at- tributes as one of the reasons for so many abandoned quarries, as none of them were exhausted, so far as depth ts concerned. In boring a well at the insane asylum it was found that the limestone extended to a depth of 1700 feet and It Is believed that this is the case under the entire city. While the surface stone in North St. Louis ts dif- ferent from that In the quarries on the South Side, it has been found that after going down a certain depth the stone is the same.

A That's the facetious watchword in Chicago when trains and boats have steam wp for St. Joseph. They are marrying men and women here fn blocks of #. It’s a fad, a fashion, a furore. It is a fever, a contagion, a de- lirlum. Perched on a high bluff overlooking Lake Michigan this town of 5000 Inhabitants has been the scene in 12 months of over eight- een hundred marriages. At the close of the present summer season the number will probably be increased to 2600. Fivery day steamer loads of people come from the great Windy City across the lake, and many of them fall victims of the ar- rows of the tnfant archer before the steam- er returns to the city. Marriage clubs are being formed in sev- eral neighboring cities. They charter spe- cial trains and come to St. Joseph. The latest club was formed at Mishawaka, Ind., and 21 couples will come on a special train over the Vandalia Line next week, Two ministers and one justice of the peace have been engaged to perform the ceremonies for its members. The greatest number of couples ever mar- ried here in one day was 8. That was last Fourth of July. The most noted man to be married here this year was Fdward F. Corcoran, assist- ant county clerk of Cook County, Il. He has issued more marriage licenses during Nis long service In Chicago than any other man in the country, excepring perhaps the deputy county clerk of Kings County, N. Y. But he had to come to the American Gretna Green to get married. The issu- ance of his license and his marriage oc- cupied less than ten minutes. He said: “This beats all Cook County records." Statistics show that slightly more than 2 per cent of the marriages are performed for people from eastern states who travel to this distant point to be married in five eee minutes just for the name and novelty of it, For this same reason people come every day from distant points. There have been several coupies from Missouri and one or two from San Francisco. The history of St. Joseph reads like a ro- mance. John W. Needham, a poor country boy, was elected county clerk. Out of the immense profits accruing from this mar- riage business he has wedded a society favorite and built up for himself a hand- some competence. The marriage business was first suggest- ed to him by J. H. Graham, president of the Graham & Morton Transportation Co., which operates steamers between this place and Chicago. Needham at once saw that the schemo would take well with Chicago people, 80 he advertised in the Chicago papers quite extensively, setting forth the fact that St. Joe is an ideal place in which to get mar- riea with neatness and dispatch. The Gra- ham & Morton Co. helped things along by unnouncing that they would furnish free on a certain day orders on the county clerk for marriage licenses to any of the passengers who wished to be married. This was July 24, last year. The result was all that could be expected. The county clerk was kept busy in his office at the Courthouse issuing marriage licenses. His residence across the street was crowded all day with couples who were being married. The number was doubled the next Sunday, and it soon became necessary to set apart a room to be known as the “Bridal Room.” Mrs. Needham, the young wife of the county clerk, attends to the marriage busi- ness, acting as bridesmaid in nearly every case, while her husband sells the licenses across the street. All day Sunday one justice of the peace and one minister are kept at the house, and candidates for mat- rimony can pay their money and take their choice between a civil or religious mar- riage. The result is about a standoff, the minister having a little the best of it if anything. Often the county clerk is awakened from his slumbers at midnight to arrange for BEOHAM, .J COUNTY CLERK, WHO BECAME RICH BY AIDING CUP/O the marriage of people who come into the city on delayed trains.

RUNKENNESS is on the increase among society women; at many afternoon teas intoxicating liquor has taken the place of tea and a treat- ment for the drink habit among women in the upper stratum of society is now as common among physicians as treatment for coughs and colds.”’ Mrs. Loutsa M. Lake, wife of O. R. Lake of St. Louls, made this statement at the recent annual meeting in Philadelphia of the Catholic Total Abstinence Union of America, of which she is third vice-presi- dent. She went further and declared that wom- en from the higher class do not care to eat unless they have their cocktails first. Mrs. Lake's address was calm and im- passioned. It followed the reading of her report on the progress of the temperance cause in the United States. For upwards of 20 years Mrs. Lake has fought the liquor evil, She holds the high- est position to which a woman can aspire in the Catholic Total Abstinence Union. This organization has a membership of 85,000, and Mrs, Lake is regarded as the chief spokeswoman, Her work has brought her into international prominence. Mrs. Lake is 62 years of age and re- sides at 1806 Hickory street. Her public career dates from her girlhood days. She was born in central New York, where her efforts in behalf of poor working women enlisted the sympathy of Thomas Barry, who was then a leader in the Knights of Labor.. Cupid did the rest. Following their removal to Massachusetts Mrs. Barry was appointed a state factory inspector. At her instance many homes for working girls were established. Soon after her husband died and Mrs. Barry located in Philadelphia, where she first espoused the cause of temperance. Her ability soon asserted itself, and she became conspicuously identified with the leading temperance societies of the Key- stone State. A few years later she came to St. Louls and founded the Woman's Christlan Temperance Union, of which she is still honorary president. It has a branch in many of the Catholic parishes the city. Since taking up her residence here she has become Mrs. Lake. Mrs. Lake is connected with charitable movements and holds a place In the Queen's Daughters’ Society) Of Mrs. Lake Archbishop Ireland of Bt Paul said: “She is one of the most gifted women to whom I ever listened. As a public speak- er she is remarkably impressive. Her views on the temperance question show deep and sober thought, a wide range of knowledge and profound judgment.” Mrs. Lake is somewhat éé of several high masculine in ap- pearance and her face is determination it- self. Her hair is slightly gray. She is above the medium height and stands erect as a soldier. For years she has lectured at the va- rious Chautauqua assemblies. Most of her life is spent on lecture tours. At the World's Convention of Women's Christian Temperance Untons tn Toronto, Ont., last year, Mrs. Lake was asked to address the mayor and citizens of Toronto. She was the only woman at the convention hon- ored with the invitation. Mrs. lake says the surest cure for the liquor habit is to stop the manufacture of liquor. There is no remedy save that, she declares, to stop drunkenness. At Philadelphia she closed her address with these words: ‘‘With the virtue, pu- pity, patience and endurance of women drowned in the punchbowl and wineglass of wealth and the beer can of poverty, God pity the’children at our homes and Mm the country.’ By MRS. LOUISA M. LAKE. Y REPORT, calling the attention of our convention to the growth of the appetite for stimulants among women, was based on the statements of most reliable authorities and was given for the purpose of arousing our total abstain- ers to greater activity in organizing, train- ing and teaching the children of our time against those social customs and prac- tices which bear such evil results that when they reach manhood and womanhood they well know how better to use their lives than to pollute or destroy that which God has given them.

Wealthy people from the city have been seen waiting by the side of the country swain and his best girl. When the new arrivals have been,seated on the porch for five minutes the justice of the peace or the minister sticks his head out of the front door and sings out: ‘Johnson and Smith next. Step lively, please!’’ The couple thus singled out goes into the house, and, standing before the magistrate, are married. The deputy county clerk is a snapshot fiend, and few of the couples get off the grounds without leaving their pic- tures behind. This story is repeated day after dav. A qulet and refined-looking couple called the county clerk a few days ago and asked for a license. The man gave his name as Charles IF. Clark of Wyoming and the lady hers as Ina Jay Flower of the same state. The ceremony was per- formed by the Rev. Dr. Thomas McRob- erts of the Congregational Church in the bridal room in the county clerk's resi- dence, The bridegroom turned out to be the nephew of ex-Senator William A. Clark and manager of the latter's big copper mine in Wyoming. The bride was a young s80- ciety woman of that state. They had been chaperoned to St. Joseph for the express purpose of getting married in the popular style. They on said that they wished to avold the pomp of a formal wedding at home.

Lake's statements are not, 48 Many many hundreds of couples marriéd here during the past year have sued for di- vorce, so far as can be ascertained, Many of the couples have made a return visit to this city, and in every case have called upon the county clerk and his wife and expressed their entire satisfacti with the state of things as they have found tt ~ since their marriage. During the past year 25 couples from Buf- falo, N. Y., have traveled to this point to be married. Here are some of.the other cities represented: Indianapol, Cleveland, Milwaukee, Sioux City, Detroit, Denver, San Francisco, New Orleans, Portland, Pittsburg, Loulsville, Jersey City and St. Louis. There bas been one lone couple from Cripple Creek, Colo, One interesting case is reported by Coun- ty Clerk Needham today.

"‘They4had been playmates in the fatherland many years ago Josephine had come to this country and had been given up for lost by her lover. When -they met they decided to come to St. Joseph and get married. They will settle on a small farm near this city. Often the applicants for marriage request that the names be withheld from publica- tion in the lists given In the local newse- papers. The request is always granted by the county clerk, who makes the strange statement that he can legally withhold these names as long as he chooses. The most exolting political crisis ever known in this county grew out of the wholesale marriage business, It was seen that its growth would make the office of county clerk one of the fattest jobs in th@ as it really t# The present tneum- Mr. Needham, has held the office for two terms, and did not seek it a third term, having made enough to retire on.

Her mother, ruefully apologetic, explains it by saying that ‘“‘Sylvia’s got one of her fixin’ up spells.’’ The im- portance of the innovation may be judged from the fact that the employment of a carpenter for seventeen minutes four years ago no workman had seen the inside of the house. since FASHIONS, — ON 7.4 4 at ti a ; 7 ie ALO fe ee ee LS IN TH eZ OO le |, two persons, reside there. ci tv | and this title seeyns appropriate, {inasmuch FIRS HETTY oe HOME AT BELLOW FALLS CY ORT LOGAN, Col., is garrisoned al- most entirely by women.

Moore, @ bishop of the Methodist Episcopal Church, who is.on his way to China. IHils assignment frum the national conference is ‘to reorganize the Methodist missionaries in the Orient. He is a soldier by nature and experience and does not dread the great task before him. He once quelled a riot in Denver, in which several Chinamen were killed. Bishop Moore says: “Tt have the deepest and most intelligent sympathy for the Chinese character and Chinese ration, for what lies at the bot- tom of their wild and misguided efforts to expel all foreigners from their lahd, and yet I believe that there is but one thing to do for the good of China and of the en- tire civilized world. That one thing is the exemplary punishment of the government for the wutrages and insults, the injuries and destruction, which they at least have allowed the foreigners to suffer. I go to China with the greatest admiration for the Chinese as individuals, and in many respects as a nation. “T was assigned to China by the national Methodist conference which met tn Chi- cago last May. The true condition of Chi- ra, as later developments have revealed, vas not appreciated at that time. There were bishops in the conference, however, who warned the council that an outburst among the native Chinese Was inevetable. Rut the majority of the bishops, myself in- cluded among them, believed that the ru- mors were a spasm of excitement, and lit- tle serious attention was paid to that ques- tion. It was then decided that I should go ahead with all my preparttions and assume the office the ist of October. “T should have gladly accepted the epis- copate, even had I realized the rebellious condition of China. I have ever been in- terested in the nation and its people, and they have always commanded my deepest sympathy. “T will be accompanied to my distant field of work by my wife and my young- est daughter, Marion, 15 years old. I in- tend to leave my wife and child at Naga- saki, Japan, where.they will be out of danger and yet not far from me. I will push directly on to Shanghai, arrfving there about the 38d of October. “After the open riots in China broke out and the terrible massacres occurred many of the bishops advised me to withdraw. for a time at least. Put any thought of so doing was dispelled by a telegram which I received about two weeks ago. It was dated Shanghai and was from Dr. Jellison and Dr. Lacey, urging me to hasten my departure and arrive in Shanghai by the middie of October in time to attend the Chinese conference, and also to assist in the settlement of some indemnities. “Dr. Jellison {s the supervisor of the In- dia missions, but the Philippine Islands also come under his jurisdiction. This ac- counts for his presence in China, as he wished to go to the Philippines by way of China, In order to ascertain the true con- dition of matters there. “We have nmiissions in the north, east, west and south of China, also many in Foo Chow and Hing Hua, two of the most dangerous parts of the land for foreign- ers to dwell in. Most of our missionaries and their converts are congregating in Shanghai, and they will stay there until there seems to be some show of peace, and then they Can spread over the land again and continue their work. ‘7 am in favor of an autonomous govern- ment for the Chinese, not in fraternal but integral relation with the Americans. We Americans are the framework upon which real Christianity will be built. First, we must accomplish civilization, then all can be left to the wisdom and fidelity of the Chinese. But at present that end seems like an attempt to extinguish the fire of the sun-far, far distant, almost impossi- ble, and yet, with the help of God, it can be done. “The missionaries in China seem to take pleasure in the knowledge that I am an old soldier, believing, perhaps, that ‘Pe- ter’s sword is not yet to be sheathed.’ I hope to have no experlence which will re- quire an evidence of my knowledge, but should the occasion arise I hope that I shall not be found lacking in my duties.” THE JAPANESE CRAZE.

HAVE just returned from the Phili- phines, where I sojourned six months with my husband, whose regiment is Pablo. I started out to take that long, weary trip with my baby boy, Donald Brooks Hilton. Little Don is only 6 years old, but he made the trip like stationed at San a soldier's son. Manila.a decree forbidding However, When we arrived in had just woman to pass the fighting line. I determined to get to my husband, so I induced some of the soldiers who knew the captain to smuggle Don and myself in past the lines by hiding us in a sup- ply train. I was the first white woman to go into that part of the island, and I being a blonde, and Don such a little gold- we were considered as been issued any en haired baby, curiosities by all the natives, follow us everywhere we went. When I first reached the Philippines my which really who would husband was at Los Banos, is the most beautiful place on earth. The scenery is perfect. the air fine, every~- thing to eat delicious, and one might well think it a piece of paradise. There is one great drawbagk, one unsurmountable dif- ficulty; that is the weather. It means death who stay there very long. Even the natives cannot stand it. They and within a to all contract a kind of fever, few days they are dead. A great many of the soldiers died. Many of them were buried in the same grave. For a few days it seemed that every one of the regiment would die. Two months after the regiment was stationed at Los Bancos there were but twenty-six well men in the At myself were the only well people at the station. Had an attack been made on them by the insurgents we would have had lit- tle chance of escape. As it was, we spent many nights with clothes on, expecting an attack at almost any moment. and then it was planned that we should go to the convent, and remain there, while our boys carried on the fight. When all the men got sick our regiment was transferred to San Pablo, where it was not long before every one began to get strong again. At that time I was the only white woman at the post, but I worked among the sick soldiers. Later, about fourteen women, wives of the officers and men, came to the post. Our quarters at San Pablo were beauti- ful. We lived at an old Spanish house, built after the style of a miniature castle. We did not avail ourselves of the splen- did advantages for entertaining. The times regiment. one time the captain and -- — were too serious, and too many of the boys were sick and dying. The scenes were heartrefiding. I brought back with me a watch, which one poor fellow- he was only 18 years old—when dying begged me to take back to his old mother. I am glad that I must send it instead of taking it to her. I think it would break my heart to have to descr “ese those dying scenes to her. He was her only boy and oh. how he did beg for one kiss from that old mother. Poor boy, he was delirious, and he did not appreciate the thousands of miles that separated him from that old woman who would grieve all her life for the loss of her only son. But those were everyday scenes, It has sobered the men, and those who were just boys, out for adventure when they started, have grown to be serious old men. Living in Manila is exorbitant. It cost me $7 a day to board with Don and myself in one small room, and poor accommoda- tion it was, When I first reached Manila I went to 27 places before I could get any- one to board me for love or money. The town was simply crowded with American women. Most of them had gone out there to see their husbands. Then there were many girls and women from the inland. The first night I had to sleep in the base- ment of the Hotel Oriente. Transportation in the island is something to stagger a gen- eral. No officer under a colonel dare at- tempt to live well. It costs from $ to $7 an hour for any carriage and they are some- thing on the order of our old-fashioned hacks. No American ever patronizes the car. They have only one line, and on that the horses are always dropping dead on the street, so it is little patronized. There is a fortune for any woman who .will go to the Philippines and start a dress- making establishment. She could charge fancy prices and command them. When I was there and wanted some new clothes I was forced to go to a Chinaman, the only dressmaker in the place. When I first went to the islands I was horrified at the manner of dress the women and young girls assumed. They would drive out in the morning and go shopping, wearing a garment that resembled the mother hubbard so closely that one could not tell the difference except in the mate- rial used. Their mother hubbards are real- ly works of art. They are creations of silk and lace and ribbons, and after one gets accustomed to seeing a woman on the street in such neglige it really seems sensible and quite pretty. Manila women never wear cor- sets in the morning. But in the evening, when the air has become cool, they make up for lost time and lace like ball gowns, with the bodice cut very low and most of the time without any sleeves at all. A Philippine lady never wears a hat or bonnet in the evening. It is easy to spot strangers the minute you see them. Out they come in the morn- ing with tight dresses on, shirtwaists and skirts, and in the evening they appear with large, veautiful hats. After they have been there awhile they siill wear beautiful . — “ns : WHAT ONE WOMAN SAW 3% PHILIPPINES. )», The Record of Observations Made by a Soldier’s Wife During His Tour of Duty in Our Queer Possession. clothes, but their style has changed. Thep wear wrappers in the mornings and in the evening they are seen in evening dress, whether or not they are going to any enter- tainment, and they never appear with @ hat on. The only hat a Philippine lady wears is a sombrero, or perhaps she only uses @ parasol. This is one reason why they hdve such beautiful hair. Our sergeant was a negro and he had his wife with him. It was quite interesting and a pleasing sight to see. She was the only American negro on the islands. The na- tives iived in horror of her, but she had no fear of them. There were some ladies who smuggied themselves in beyond the fighting line in the garb of soldiers, I remember one wom- an. Her name waa Miss Bean. I think she was an adventuress. She wore the uniform of a soldier, but she became il! and then her identity was disclosed. But for some reason or other they allowed her to pass the lines. There is one thing for which I blush for the American troops. That is their treat- ment of the native girls. It really is pitifal to see sO many native girls with white +)” babies. They have been most cruelly be- trayed by American soldiers. Many of these girls are beautiful, and their trust was their greatest fault. They believed in the love, and they trusted fn the honor of the men, and their ruln was the result. It is the custom in Manila that the father should stand up with the mother at the christening of the baby, and it almost broke my heart to see some of those giris who were not more than 15 or 16 years old Standing all alone. Their own people dis- own them in their disgrace. Now there is- being organized by the Spanish ladies of Manila a society for the protection of young . girls. You see so many of these girls had never known any of the luxuries of life. They had thought a few dollars great wealth, and when the soldiers went among — them and gave them such rare gifts they were dazzled and believed that any one who would be so good to them would be true. Poor girls, they have not all learned their lesson yet. those sort of things his life would not be worth much. . The officers have done all in their power to prevent gambling among the men. The officers no longer play poker or any other game which would in any way lead to gambling. This is done to lead a good exam- ple, and it has a wonderful effect. The greatest fault the men seem to have is that of drinking. There is a drink con- cocted there which they call nivo. The na- tives do not abuse the use of it, but the sol- diers drink until it maddens them. It has a peculiar effect on the Americans. The after results are terrible. It leaves them with a melancholia which almost makes them crazy. In many cases men have committed suicide from the effects. not have their canteen and the men drank this stuff as a novelty, and the desire got such a grip on them that they could not re- | 7 sist it, = —_—------ TA Chere ——- are -_ ie Ds, . tb ‘ae a a by ft ane pheeeet as hes ecituy Eth ‘| wy . ti - f 7 ’ : | \ *) ' 3 $ ; a 2 Pty " fs Pn, Si a Sh REDE PIO LINE TIDE EIT LS TRY A me = . : — a a - ig TBS . ae rs ’ ; SS ROMP eR RIT RE => > Ja lS {i apt a a 1 ' uu ce | ! , a : ¥ NLA "as he ; Naaiwernaye!

LOUIS POST-DISPATCH—AUGUST 19, 1900. SUNDAY MORNING—QTT. SAL She EMI ; oo® Believes That She Is Inhabited by the Spirit of Nathaniel Hawthorne and Tells Strange Stories of Her Possession. SALEM, Mass., Aug. 16. Bpecial Correspondence of the Sunday Post-Dispatch. ITCHCRAFT has been revived in W this quaint old town of witches. Carrie Peabody Bly, the modern "Witch of Salem,” is 27 years old, but is slight and girlish looking. She has a dark complexion, large lustrous brown eyes and @ wealth of chestnut hair, which she ar- ranges primly in a Psyche knot. She ts ed- ucated, intelligent and pleasing in her man- ner. When a Sunday Post-Dispatch represent- ative knocked at the quaint old Bly home- stead, which was built more than a cen- tury ago as the new wing to an old witch house, Miss Bly herself unbolted the door. In her bicycle skirt and shirtwaist she looked like an up-to-date young woman. “Who are you? I am not at home to any- body. I wish the public would leave me alone,” she said abruptly, her big amber eyes flashing dangerously. “Yes. I am bewitched, nor am I sorry. I have found many friends among the spir- fts. They are kinder and more interesting than human beings. Nathaniel Hawthorne is my controlling spirit. “How did it come about?” she repeated dreamily. ‘“‘Perhaps it was only natural that the witches should come back to their olf home. They found me here, and they liked me. One day when I was alone in the garret of what people call the witchhouse I felt myself going into a trance. All at once I saw a kind, benevolent-looking gen- tleman standing in the doorway. He was &@ stranger to me, but the moment he spoke I knew it was Hawthorne. “*You must be patient, my child,’ he said, and his voice was soft and clear. "You are to do great things. You may not wish to do them all, but remember your duty and you will be rewarded. Do them as Hester Prynne did her duty, as she pa- tiently wore the scarlet letter on her breast.’ Since then he has ben with me ev- ery day. “TI stayed in the trance for two weeks. My mind seemed to be suspended ahove my body. I could not speak. A light, a tiny blue flame, burned in the region of my heart. I was conscious, and yet I secmed to be part of another world and to hold communion with departed spirits. I knew everything that went on around me. I saw the doctors come and go. I felt that they could not help me. “Then someone sent for James F. Litch- man, a spirit medium of Marblehead. He breathed into my mouth just as the flame about my heart was dying out. and all at once I awoke. I was in my right mind. I remembered everything that had happened. “You will think it strange, no doubt, but the day before Charles H. Hoyt was set free from the insane asylum in Connecti- cut I saw the spirit of his dead wife. She gave me a message to send her husband. I had never heard the name of Hoyt, but I saw him all at once as distinctly as if I had known him for years. She told me that she would not be happy until the judges released her husband, that he was not in- sane and a great wrong had been done him. Then the beautiful spirit faded away. “This strange life has come upon me sud- denly. Only a few months agol was a light- hearted girl, caring only for amusement and-utterly devoid of superstition. After leaving the high school I worked in a Sa- lem dry goods store, and my time was 80 full that I had no leisure to spend with witches, even if I had known they were still lurking in this old house. After awhile I decided to go to Cambridge and open up & millinery store of my own. I had a nice place on Massachusetts avenue and did well.

A barber who hopes nowadays must not be an artis- tic barber, but well informed on all su- perstitions. Many men who are perfectly rational on most subjects have a superstitious fear of ill luck of the barber's chair. These su- perstitions vary considerably in different It is a very common belief, how- ever. that for a barber to lather the face with a single up stroke of the brush in- evitably brings bad luck. Many people will a barber who makes this cities. sharply abuse mistake. It is considered very bad luck to see a hunchback in the mirror standing or pass- ing back of one.

It this simple and effective punishment were not out of date, there is little doubt that the people of Shelby Coutny would cheerfully apply it to Mrs. Celeste Le- masters, who has tricked them so cleverly that those most active in the “ghost hunt’’ are still sputtering with rage. A woman conjure up a ghost out of empt!- ness and in the midst of a most common- place community, and hoodwink a whole section of country into believing her amaz- ing statements, and cause an armed force to be sent out, and fill every heart in the county with pity for her afflicted self? Im- possible, of course. Yet this is practically what Mrs. Celeste Lemasters did, and skeptics who doubt the cleverness of woman are invited to read this truthful account of how she did it. F AN The tale goes far to support the old the- ory that everybody believes in ghosts and that anybody who thinks his neighbors will not ridicule him will avow his bellef. A good supernatural yarn well told will entrap the hardest headed. This lively and ingentous lady lives by her- self in a two-story farm house on a cross- road eight miles from Shelbyville. Barns and sheds adjoin the house, and near by is the cottage of James Stark, a colored man who runs the farm forits owner. Stark was the first to hear of the ghost’s nightly visit to the farm. He proved a receptive listener. The story of a triple rap on the door that was heard only after nightfall, and that was immedi- ately followed by a hard slam on the side- boarding, almost curdied the blood in the poor man’s veins. It was useless to open the door, Mrs. Lemasters told him. There was no visitor outside, only a breath of cold air. Again and again this had occurred. MAGE CONNECTED WITH ite -+0-0———— It Came Erom India and When the Long Train of Misfortunes That Followed the Gift Was Reconed by Mme, Sadi- Carnot it Was Destroyed. PARIS, Aug. 15. Special Correspondence of the Sunday Post-Dispatch. UT of the mysterious East, () early days of Sadi Carnot’s tical career, came a grinning stone idol, stained with the blood of kings. For ages it had brought to its owners first triumph, then violent death. The future President of France, smiling at the superstitious tale of its power, adopted it as his charm, his mascot, the symbol of his good. genius. “T know it cannot bring me bad luck,” he said. -‘‘Let us see if it cannot bring good luck.”’ Mme.

It was when M. Carnot was minister of finance that he came into possession of the stone idol, which had been brought from India by his friend, Gustav le Bon. “It is the most interesting of my Orlental acquisitions,’’ explained the traveler, ‘‘and Tam giving it to you because you have the true Oriental fatalism, and also because you were named after the Persian poet. “You remember how scornful Sadi was of ambitfon?

Carnot, who was present, turned pale and looked with Jistike at the gro- tesque features of the god. But her hus- band, who was fond of outlandish curios. caressed its head and expres@ed his pleas- ‘ure At the gift. M. Ie Bon went on to relate the legend of the idol. It was.a long story. Many kings had ruled over Khadjurdo since the, installation of the grinning idol ft the royal palace the poli- in Their reign had been short and bloody. Each had died at the hands of an assas- In, who, seizing the idol, had usurped the throne—only to fall in turn at the hands of the next ambitious rival to be lured to destruction by the stone god’s mocking smile. So it went until the English descended upon India, and there were no more kings in Khadjurdo. But the idol, though no longer annointed with royal blood, con- tinued to bring evil fortune to its possessor after first permitting him to realise his ambition. Among its modern victims had been a major of British cavalry, a Brehmah princess, the head of a department in the civil service, a rich money lender and an from whose heirs it. concluded, complete enough But you, my old dealer in antiquities, M.

Whoever will raise himself others must not complain if he is exposed to peril and tossed about by the winds.’ Sadi Carnot was not an ambitious man. He had not the remotest idea of becoming President of the Republic. The thought of the little stone god symbolizing ambition amused him, but he did not associate it with anything in his own mind. Indeed, the idol would have been nothing more than the chief object in his museum of curiosities if it had not been for the ap- prehension of Mme. Carnot, who could not divert her mind of the gloom excited by M. Le Bon's narrative. In this way the idol became the subject of a perennial household controversy, play- ful on’M. Carnot’s part, but on his wife's part more serious than she cared to con- fess.

She saw something more than coincidence in her husband's sudden rise to the highest office in France. She re- membered the kings of Khadjurdo, and her blood ran cold. And she recalled M.

One night the watchers rigged up a wire all around the premises and con- nected it with a hell.

By means of an oscillator he proposes to cure consumption, cancer and other forms of disease which have hitherto resisted all the efforts of medical science. Ordinarily, 89 volts of electricity passed through the body of a man by means of the dry-cell method are sufficient to kill him. By Tesla’s machine half a million volts can be administered to a patient without ill effect. One scarcely feels the subtle fluid, which, in another form, would instantly annihilate him. A peculiar property claimed for the Tesla electricity is that it affects the germs of thé disease without destroying the cells of the tissues of the body. Many doctors could cure consumption if they had only the. dis- ease bacillus to deal with. But they have to consider the cell structure of the human body. A germicide powerful enough to Kill the consumption germ would also destroy the tissues in which this germ is conduct- ing its operations. Ordinary electricity passed through the tissue would reduce it to its elemental state. The cell structure would break up. Death would ensue. The Tesla oscillator is now in use by physicians, who recod marvelous results. Patients suffering from chronic consump- tion have been cured permanently. Men whose hours have been numbered have taken up their beds and walked. The Tesla oscillator not only cures con- sumption. Its effect in fevers has been pro- nounced marvelous.

Indeed, it may be utilized with beneficial effect. I am of opinion that electricity in this form may be used as a means of stamping out internal disease.

My oscillator enables this to be done. That is why I base such hopes on {ts career as a therapeutic agent. It has already been tried and remarkable results have been ob- tained. Tesla’s oscillator {s a smail, drum-like object, oblong in form. It is about two feet long by one foot wide.

Indeed, if Miss Lumm were not a sin- gularly brave young person she would promptly have flung away the yellow trinket which some relatives in Kentucky were misguided enough to give her. Her only hope of immunity Illes in the tradition that the misfortunes that come through possession of the beads appear but once in 13 years, the present year being a safe one. No mysterious charm had ever a darker record than this necklace, on which a for- saken girl tried to avenge the bitterness of her desertion by a jeweled curse. Yet it is a fascinating trifle, a chain of tiny amber beads woven into a web of finest threads, with a circuit measuring a yard and a third and one-third of an inch wide.
