Roswag, his grand- father, recently filed in the court, was not the last will and testament of the deceased. He claimed that Mr. Roswag made a will in 1886, whereas the one filed was made in 1844. He admitted that he did not know where the late will was, but was sure that it had been made. An investigation failed to reveal any knowledge on the part of any of the Roswag heirs of the whereabouts of the 1808 will Mr. Dauster claims that, according to it, his wife is to receive five acres of the Ros- wag farm at Stratmann, whereas the will of ISS leaves all the real estate to John Rowewag, & son of the deceased.

They were seized from two of the | passengers Oh the liner New York, which arrived yesterday from Southampton and | Cherbourg. Noticeable among the passengers aboard the liner was a Woman apparently about 35 years old, who wore a gray rainy -day skirt and a sealskin sacque. She had the air of one who knew how to take care of herself. and a nonchala@ce that even the inspectors who seized two of her trunks at the pier were unable to ruffle. According to the passenger list she is ‘‘Miss M. Dorrance.”’ It is said that she was escorted by 2a dentist, who appears vi ihe passenger list as Dr. Franklin D. Kelly. Each was said to be from Peoria, IIl. The three trunks of Miss Dorrance were passed by the customs inspectors of Dep- 'uty Surveyor Dowling’s staff and chalked. Then there was a stir among the inspect- A young man, who refused to give name, but who said he represented Collector Bidwell, went to Mr. Dowling and asked that a re-examination of the trunks The young man, assisted ors. of unset diamonds: and a smaller quantity of stones that were set. One of the latter was a stud attached to a. frag- ment of a dress shirt bosom, which had apparentiy been cut outwith a penknige. The collector's young man laid i, a monds out on the top of'one of the trunks and ordered that the young woman should be carefully searched by a woman inspect- or. She was taken into the plier superin- tendent’s room. The dentist was subjected to a similar search, and nine gold medals, awarded to him for his work at the Paris Exposition, togeth®r with his tools and exhibits of ‘| now in possession of the customs authori- | teeth, valued at $50,000, were seized and for | a time it looked as if the doc a would ‘be locked up. ctor himself The Lady Was Extremely=Cool. It was said that the collector's office had been apprised -of the coming of the young woman and informed that she would have a quantity of small gems concealed in her teeth. The private examination showed that all the diamonds had been put in the Her coolness never left her while the in- Spectors were overhauling her dresses and things, and she did not lose self-possession when they came upon the gems. She made one remark which somewhat puzzled the inspectors. It was just after they found the diamonds, and ‘was: “I’m something of * enon myself.’’ é estimate of the young man who su- perintended the job of Hacovers is that the diamonds aré worth about $5000. A bill of sale, indicating that most of them had been bought in Paris, was found in one of the trunks. Miss Dorrance’s two trunks were sent to the public stores and she was permitted to leave the pier with Dr. Kelly.

POWER AMONG LABOR LEADERS Little Scotchman Who Talked His Way Into Prominence and Whose Fame Quickly Evaporated. Martin Irons, once noted throughout the country and especially in Bt. Louis as et labor leader, died at Bruceville, Tex., Sat- urday. Bruceville is a hamlet 20 miles north of Waco. Irons had been in that part of Texas the past few years organizing so- cial Democratic clubs—county of district organizations of the party on whose: plat- form Eugene V. Debs ran for president. The name of Martin Irons is famillar to St. Louisans. He it was who gave the order for the great strike on the Geuld railroad system in 1886, whith resulted in Many ex- He con- that strike from an office in this Before it was ended he was arrested on a charge of being implicated ina scheme to tap the private wire that ran from Mr. omnia office in New York to the office of ducted fic in this city. His trial on this charge re- sulted in his acquittal. After the failure of the big strike he left St. Louis and local | labor leaders claim to have but little knowl- | edge of his subsequent movements. | irons was a Scotchman. Those _ who'! knew him when he was here say he must | have been about 65 years old at the time of | his death. In appearance he was not striking. He was quite small in stature, | with a complexion that is described as | “sandy,” and brown hair. He had little | education, but he was a voluminous talker | and once he became affiliated with union | labor organizations, he talked his way | rapidly to the front. He came into prom. | inence suddenly during the big strike and | then sank into obscurity just as quickly. In Scotland, Irons wert to work at an) early age and learned the machinist’s| trade. When he attained his majority ne | came to America and settled in Fayette | County, Ky. He was married there in 1852 to Mary Brown, a Scotch lassie whom he had known on his native heath. Five | or six years after the wedding they came | to Missouri and settled at Lexington, La-} fayette County. He Hved there when the} war began, but, it is sald, escaped service | on the ground that he was a British sub- | ject. In 1876 his wife and their two sons moved to a farm in Ray County, where the sons are still living, it is reported. Irons, it ap- | ~—s did not accompany them. Instead | e went to Sedalia, where he secured rail- | road employment. He joined the Knights | of Labor there and rapidly pushed his way | into prominence in the order. In 188 he was master workman of division No. 101. In that capacity it devolved upon | him to declare the great strike which tiled up the Gould system. There were two | strikes on that system in the °80's. The first was in 188%. In that strike the company gave the men what they demanded. The fol- lowing year, however, new differences arose | and again a strike was declared. This one the Knights of Labor -lost. It was this| strike that Irons conducted. E. V. Powder- ly was at the head of the organization and | ; ; i ; | he deputed to Irons the charge of the big industrial battle | It was while the strike was at its height | that the wire-tapping episode occurred. Thomas Furlong, now president of the Fur- | long Secret Service Co. in the Chemical | building, was at the head of the Gould svs- tem's detective force at thatetime. One. night he and a force of deputies raided a house near Twenty-second and Market streets and captured a telegraph instrument among other things. An alleged scheme to tap the Hoxie-Gould wire was divulged. Irons was arrested in connection with the alleged scheme and tried. But a jury freed m. After the strike was lost he left 8t. Louis. A few months after his departure he was heard from in Kansas City operating a hunch counter. Later he went to Arkansas, and, it {s said. lived on a farm. He is also said to ‘have resided awhile in southwestern Missoyri. According to press dispatches, he went to Texas three years ago. He made his hAme with Dr. D.

DE- SHE SAYS THE CITY IS WICKED Mrs. George Overby, a negress of Evans- ville, Ind., who claims that she has re- ceived a divine call to warn St. Louisans from the ‘‘wrath to come,’ prophesies that St. Louis will be destroyed at an early date. This information canje to St. Louis through press dispatches. The woman lives at 202 Lincoln avenue, Evansville. According to her prophecy more than one-half of the people of Bt. Louis are going to perish because of their great wickedness. She says that the Lord has commanded her to appear in St. Louts on Sunday, Nov. 2, at the Fair Grounds, and warn the people of their danger. Mrs. Overby says that the Lord appeared to her at her home and in commanding her said: “St. Louis is to be destroyed, and I want you to go and tell the people of the danger that is to come upon them. The city will be swept by a great flood and it wil) begin in East St. Louls and sweep over the city of St. Louvls. Over one-half of the people will be destroyed. There will be more. suffering than at the great flood of Galveston. Go and preach my gospel and let those who will escape the wrath that is to come.” Mrs. Overby is about @# years old. She is said to be in meditation and prayer in preparation for the delivery of the message she believes she has received. She was born in slavery. DEATHS.

POKER WAS HIS_ DELIGHT HE MADE BETS THAT WERE TOO BIG FOR THE GAME. Betrayed by Woman He Had Slighted He Made a Final Haul and the Bank Is Now Closed. NEWPORT, Ky., Nov. 19.—United States Bank Examiner Ticker has announced of- ficially that Frank M. Brown, the assistant eashier of the German National Bank, is missing and that a partial investigation shows that rBown is short about $192,090. Mr. Tucker on Sunday took possession of the bank and posted a notice that it would remain closed pending an examination. Brown has been with the bank 15 years, and it is stated by the experts that his peculations extended back as far as 10 ears ago. The capital stock of the bank s only $100,000. Brown's shortage is double that amount and more than the reserve fund and all the assets, including the real eerhe First National Bank of Newport was wrecked two years ago by Cashier Youtsey, and now with the German National closed, Newport has only one bank left. For two weeks there have been rumors that Brown was short, and some depos- jtors withdrew their accounts. Three weeks ago the bank examiners made a good state- ment of the bank's condition, and the of- ficers and: directors allayed suspicion by referring to the report of this examination and to their last statement. Directors Thought the Bank Solvent. Last Wednesday Brown left, and it was announced that he had gone hunting, on a vacation. He did get a ticket for Odin, IIL, but it is learned now that he did not go there, and it is generally believed that he ia out of this county with plenty of money in his possession. It is learned that Brown Was suspended or last Tuesday, pending au investigation, and that experts have been at work on the books all the past wecna. Last Friday the cfticials and directors pub- lished in the papers of this city a state- ment that the bank had been found to be ali right and that the rumors about Brown were false. town, it is claimed, was living a fast life, with wine, women and yambling in his repeitoire. His career was not cut chore by any discovery at the bank till a jealous woman betrayed him. Brown is «a widower with one son, aged 10 years, who lives with wn's father, Paris C.

Eleven-year-old Hulda Henninger of Ha- gel Hill, St. Louls County, is a youthful composer of music. tious as she fis youthful. Already she has well-formed plans for her musical educa- tion both in this country and abroad. She says she will have the best that two contl- nents afford, and while she is getting it music shall be her support as well as her study. In execution of this plan she composed a waltz last summer, called “Moonlight on Creve Coeur Lake,” and it has recently been published. It is by her compositions that little Hulda proposes to pay the expenses of her musi- cal education and her work of last summer is just a beginner. Hulda began the study of the plano five years ago, and today she is almost its mis- Her execution is worthy of the pro- fessional. She masters, with tress. apparently perfect ease, the most difficult classic se- lections, and renders them with a fine touch and feeling that prove her a genius. She studies other subjects as wel! and is a regular, industrious pupil in the Dozier school. She is wise beyond her years and says that she must know something else besides just music in order to get all the musical education she wants. Hulda Henninger is the daughter of Charles J.

His Bets Stumped the Bookmakers. Brown was an enthusiastic poker player, with the limit never too high; and he plunged on horse races for years. His bets on the races were frequently too high for the olrooms in Covington, Ky., and he had brokers in both Chicago and New York. While Brown's name was never identified with a racing stable, was the owner of eral race horses. 7reatiands and the ce of Wales, two good runners, were his property. These horses were raced in “Kid” Walienstein’s name until this spring, when Brown placed his horses tn charge of & man named Cherrington, in whose name they have been racing since then. J. B. Respess, who has horses a New- at present, has a horse named ‘Mr. rown,”’ which is said to have been named in honor of the missing bank employe.

He was quenter of the biggest poker game in town, and the limit was never too high for him. ane larger the amount the better it suited wn. rown is known to have spent all day and a night at these resorts and the stor- tes of his losings are many.

C. Banks, president of the Banks Medical Co., is the originator and promoter of the idea, and is working hard to secure a definite plan of action, Mr. Banks mailed an explanatory circular | to 72 members of the lecal clergy requesting an expression as to the practicability of the scheme. As outlined in this communication, Mr. Banks’ plan contemplated relief only church members, though the movement has become since, an entirely liberal one. Its object was to be to find employment for unemployed Protestant men and women, .\by acting as an agent between them and the business houses. The details of organization included the’ establishment of a central office, in charge of a secretary, and a board consisting of one member from each church in the city, through whom applications were to be made to the secretary. Revenue was to be se- cured by private subscription and through the sale of membership cards to applicants for whom positions were secured. To this roughly outlined plan 72 replies were received, all save one of which were strongly in favor of it, the writers all ex- pressing a willingness to co-operate in es- tablishing such an association. In view of this favorable reception of his idea, Mr. Banks sent out another notice re- questing a meeting of those interested, at Odd Fellows Hall.

WE MUST TAYE PART OF ChINh This Seems to Be the Policy of the Administration., ON BRITISH COLONIAL PLAN PHILIPPINE FUTURE DEPENDS ON SUPREME COURT DECISION. Is Expected to Declare That the Con- stitution Does Not Necessarily Follow the American Flag. It Special to the Post-Dispatch. WASHINGTON, Nov. 19.—As expected and predicted, the administration denied that it has any intentions toward China, beyond those officially expressed in the dip- lomatie communications of the last six months, but men in the confidence of the President admitted that the dispatches of Sunday morning expressed the plans of the President correctly in every detail. The plan now is to have one of the ad- ministration senators make a speech soon after congress convenes in December, out- lining a policy for the Philippines and oth- er colonial territory. There is no intention of ever allowing the Philigpines to be a state or even a terri- They will always be governed by this countyy, and if the Porto Rico test case holds, will always have a tariff similar to the Porto Rico tariff. Attorney-General Griggs is now preparing }an elaborate brief showing that the consti- | | | tution does not necessarily follow the flag. The administration is confident of win- ning its Porto Rigo contention. If it does, the Philippines and China—when China comes—will have tariffs also. Chairman Roy of the house judiciary committee says that if the Supreme Court sustains the Republican contention that Porto Rico is not a part of the United States but territory belonging to the United States, and that, therefore, the constitu- ional provision for uniform taxation | throughout the United States does not ap- ply to Porto Rico, of course, the same will ' hold good with regard to the Philippines. and | of | and said: met a | Monday afternoon to the meeting of min- | effect | The purpose now is to A.

A. Whersole, sec- retary of the Central Y. M. C.

A. would undertake all the work connected with the new Employment Association, furnish the quarters and the office furniture, supply all stationery, printed matter, postage—every- thing in fact, if the new organization would guarantee the payment of the salary of a first class man as secretary. Mr. Ebersole had a ready solution of the feminine side of the question, saying that the women need not present themselves personally, but could make application through some pastor. After much discussion Mr. Banks, holding out stoutly for establishing the association on its own footing, a majority finally gave Mr. Ebersole the assurance that -his offer would be recommended next Monday to the assembled ministers of the city. It was agreed that Mr. Banks was to have the option of presenting a minority report.

GYMNASIUM WAS CROWDED Charles Parker Easily Won a Two- Round Go With James Wall, and Two Other Fighters Went Limit. Jack Sims knocked out Jimmie Collins in what proved to be the best event on the program at the St. Louls Rowing Club Sunday afternoon. Three other fights for decisions were pulled off, but they all! suf- fer in comparison with the first named go. Sims and Collins were inclined to mix matters from the start, and as they were both in excellent condition, the crowd that packed the club gymnasium was given a treat. Collins had the best of the ar- gument as far as fighting was concerned, but in all other respects the men were about equal. Sims was knocked down in the opening round by a series of light stomach blows and a vicious tap on the jaw. He came up strong, however, after ‘taking the full count, and though he was straightened out @ moment later by a hard blow over the heart, he managed to keep his equilibrium for the balance of the fight. Collins looked to have the best of the fight up to the time he was given his quietus, over-confidence on his part being Nareciy responsible ior his defeat and the rather sudden termina- tion of the bout. Me aflowed his gvard to drop after he had landed a few stiff punches on different pore of his opponent's anatomy and dims, king advantage of the opening, feinted with his left and followed with nis right on the jaw. The blow was a terrific ore and Cancked all of the fight out of Collins, who sank to the floor, where he lay while the referee counted him out. He recovered in Q@ moment and, strange to say, did not show @ mark of any kind. The men weighed in at 133 povnds. Charlies Parker and James Wall inet et 125 pounds and put up a fast exhibition fer two rounds Wall -being knocked Jown and out. Perker, who is an old hand at the box- ing fame, was easily the best, nis cxpe- riemce serving him well throughou: ihe te zo. Wal, though green, was fame to the core and, while he was repeatedly hnocked down, he came back several times and tried 10 force the fighting, which was just to the liking of Parker, who landed telling blows at will. The remaining bouts for decision were between Pertara and Hammersiee, who went the limit, five rounds, and Adam Kohl and Jack Welsh, who also went their limit, four rounds, Though Pertara had all the best of the former go no decision was rendered .be- cause of an agreement to the effect that none was to be given if both men were on their feet at the end of five rounds. The referee decided the Kohl-Welsh bout a draw. though it looked as if the decision should have been given to Kohl. Welsh torced the fighting, but Kohl's defense was excellent a he hit his opponent almust at will without return Bob Douglass was siated to go four rounds with William Stevenson, but an in- ury sustained by the latter while in train- ng forced a postponement. The Zacker- | Bernero bout was also calied off, because of the poor physical condition of Bernero, the club officials refusing to allow him to gO on. Douglass and John L. Joachim gave a very pretty exhibition of fast sparring and Billy Inglis and Phil Mohr also entertained | the crowd in the same way. Max Luttbeg and William Dennert put up a good wre. tling exhibition, neither man getting a fall in the two shecaearcty bouts. —--—_-——_—-_ oqo games.

These gentlemen found much pleasure chasing the festive fox on the Francis farm, which is outed at the extreme south end of the city. First Hunt Offered Good Sport. At the first hunt last vear the fox led the party through some fine country., Some of the obstacles that the hunters had to contend with were very difficult, but the , eae i. a. ,™ > > Sa e > > - . a horsemen were all well mounted and they ‘got over in gocd shape. The drag also offered some nice level stretches for a good fast gallop, and it was thoroughly enjoyed by those present. The first hunt was such a great success that the club increased its membership very rapidly. However, the number of ac- tive hunters never numbered more than six last season, as it was a difficult matter to secure a good serviceable hunting horse hereabouts. Mr. August Busch, mounted on Chair- warmer, could take anything, from a ledge to a stone wall. Chairwarmer mca jum sc hjgh that his associates often fear for Mr. Busch's safety, as nothing was too high or difficult for this game little animal to try for. Mr. Lemp and Mr. Bratton were also mounted in superb style and on this ac- count they had a great advantage over the other members of the club. Mr. Lemp had a little Irish hunting mare that would gc at anything;-in fact, it was all Mr. Lemp could do on several occasions to pre- vent her from trying a barbed wire fence. The other club peatebane. who were com- pelled to trail along far In the rear, saw the necessity of owning good hunters, in order to be in the hunt. ince then every member of the club has secured a jumper that is sound and that will carry weight. The great interest manifested in the hunts by the members of the Woodbine Club is re- sponsible for the great demand for jumpers at the recent horse sales, Be Pa A Several of the gentlemen lean towards the thoroughbred that is built on strong lines. Mr. Bratton purchased several racers last summer and has already developed them into timber toppers. owever, he will rely on Euchere to do the greater art of the work in following the hounds. Suchere is one of the best types of a hunt- ing horse in this neighborhood. He is a big, strong animal with a fair amount of speed and he finds no trouble carrying Mr. Brat- ton’s 220 pounds over the sticks. Hunt This Year Near Kinloch Park. The majority of the hunts this year will take place just beyond Kinloch Park. ‘The only fault that can be found with the Francis farm is that the country around is covered with barbed wire fences.

To keep up with the leaders one must nat- urally have complete confidence in him- self and his mount and must not be timid at any stage of the journey. Of course it Is advisable for one poorly mounted to hunt the gate when an ugly looking fence sep- arates him from the hounds. The foxes are not as plentiful in the vi- cinity of the Francis farm as they are out at Kinloch. Mr. Lucas, who has a beautiful stock farm at Kinloch says there will be no scarcity of foxes. The Woodbine Club's pack of foxhounds are at Mr. Bratton’s place in East St. Louis. When at home Mr. Bratton does not let a day pass that he does not take the pack down to the old East St. Louls race- course at Denverside and give them plenty of exercise. When the master of hounds is absent from the city Jack English keeps the hounds at work and they will be in fine condition for their first hunt. Hounds a Fine Pack. The pack is a mixture of English and American hounds. Many of the dogs in the pack carried off honors in the dog show held at the West End Coliseum last sea- son. However, a foxhound does not make a showy appearance on the bench. His place is in the field. Preparations for the first hunt are about completed. The members of the Woodbine Club will wear the customary riding coat of bright red material, with blue, long- peaked caps. The hunt promises to be quite a society affair, as a large number of prominent per- sons will be present in stylish rigs to see the hunters start. 7 “ a CURRENT } SPORTING } be COMMENT } Y POST- erate. t ATCH WRITERS.

McKendree rather made a hit by tneir playing and de- portment, and, ‘‘ringers’’ or not, they took their medicine gamely. C. B. C. has a remarkably fast team, and, on the offensive, a very strong one. If any Washington University men saw it score the last two touchdowns Saturday after- noon, they certainly must have many doubts as to the ability of the ’varsity team to stop the interference developed by the men from Easton avenue. It is sure, quick in forming and heavy; and it is certain, some time during the game, to open a clean way for Charlie Hickey. In line-bucking the team also works to- gether nicely and Cunningham and Mc- a are scidom at a loss to advance the all. Where C. B. C. is wanting is in defensive interesting, but neither team made a bluff at playing good foothall. All the players ap- | peared to be more anxious to play the man | than the ball. As a result, several players engaged in bumping matches at different times during the game, while the ball was left to take care of itself. SIX-DAY BIKE RACE FOR WOMEN.

With the advantage of this season’s experience they may turn out a team in 1901 which will be in the class of other universities. President Ban Johnson of the American League is trying to arrange a meeting of the magnates of that league to take place in Chicago before midnight Tuesday, as the agreement of five years expires at that hour.

The racing season is about over in these parts. The meeting at Newport does not count for much. Only an ordinary lot of | horses are racing there, and the attendance is very poor and the betting light.

Keene was the most suc- cessful, $111,357 being won by the horses which carried the white and blue spots. Commando is largely responsible for this vast sum being placed in the Keenes’ cof- fers. This great youngster started only six times, but paid his owner well by amassing $41,000 as a result of the campaign. The oth- er 2-year-olds from the Keene stable were also big winners. Ww. C. Whitney won $92,545 during the sea- | son. Fis 2-year-olds were also responsible ‘in a great measure for this sum. Ballyhoo Bevy’s victories in the Futurity and Flatbush stakes brought $37,690. Mr. Whitney pulied ‘down $13,815 when Prince Charles won the /} Hudson and Great American stakes. This colt may be a starter in the English Derby next year. Kokomo, Ind., has discovered another way to break into print. It was thought that Kokomo’s only claim to prominence was the | fact that she gave to the world a James Tod | Sloan. Kokomo was a backwoods town in ride winners for dukes, princes and lords. Then Kokomo was heard from. Kokomo no longer relies on the jockey to give her prom- inence. Saturday Kokomo’s high school boys were mixed up in a scrimmage on a gridironed field when there was a pa e of mammas through the gates. The women did not stop at the side lines, but continued to the spot where the fight was thickest. Each mamma grabbed a long-haired boy out of the mix- up and started for home. The mammas were called all serts of ugly names by the disappointed spectators, but the action of the women gave Kokomo another chance to appear in print. TWO ST. LOUISANS IN FIGHTS. Johnnie and Clarence Ritchy to Fight Lew Ryall and Eddy Lenny. Special to the Post-Dispatch. PHILADELPHIA, Novy, 19.—Two St. Lou- isans will be principals in two fights that will take place in the ring of the Pennsyl- vania Art Club tonight. Johnnie Ritchy will try conclusions with Lew Ryall, while his brother, Clarence, will meet Eddy Lenny. The Ritchies have made a great hit since they came here from St. Louls. They are clean fighters, and both are well up with the best of their class. Johnnie has gained some victories over the best fighters and should be returned an easy winner tonight, Clarence will have a harder. game on his hands. Croker After Revenge. LONDON, England, Nov. 19.—From the latest information obtainable in the Jockey Club's stewards’ investigation of Lord Dur- ham’s charges against Jockey Reiff and Trainer Wishard it looks as if there are stormy times coming for his lordship. It has just transpired that during the in- vestigation the stewards called upon Rich- ard Croker's.representative for Mr. Croker’s betting books. This is an action that is hu- miliating to an Englishman. It is a step so grave that the stewards rarely resort to it.

As was brought out in the Sunday Post-Dispatch of the 18th, @ number of gentlemen hitherto lukewarm in the World's Fair matter now volunteer to take hold and help along. This is the right spirit, and no time should be lost in com- pleting the fund. That is the way to help now. There will be other work to do later on. There will be some legislation necessary both in the mu- nicipal assembly and the legislature, but this can not well be initiated until the popular subscription is made up. The meeting of the committee of 200 called for Tuesday evening will have important business to transact. The pres- ence not only of the committee, but of all actively interested in the Fair is desired. It is hoped that at this meeting definite atrangements for definite work will be made. But the first thing to do is to complete the fund. With St. Louis bank clearings for last week the largest in the history of the city, why shouldn't we go right ahead with the World's Fair? — ens i is AUTOMOBILE HEARSES. Even better than the funeral stréet car is the automobile hearse, which has been used for the first time by an enter- prising undertaker at Metuchen, N. J. With automobile hearse and horseless carriages at funer- als, everything can be done decently and in order, so long as the gasoline or electricity holds out. There will be no stopping at roud houses to water horses and sample liquors. The rubber tires will enable the procession to move noise- lessly and swiftly along without appearing to give way to that haste which is supposed to be incompatible with grief. And better than all, this mode of getting to a cemetery will enable us to have our burial grounds and crematories f ther out fin the country. This is very desirable, so that he encroachment of population will not compel the aban- ~ donment and tearing up of such places for building pur- wrt : poses. The transport Logan brought 272 sick soldiers. More poli- ticlans and fewer soldiers should be sent to our unhealthy tropical possestions. a THE FACTS ARE ENOUGH. Municipal destitution and misery were graphically por- trayed by Prof. Sheldon in his address to the Ethical Culture Society Sunday. : The lecturer paid a visit to the city institutions last week and told what he saw with simple but terrible directness. The facts of the situation are quite enough. No rhetoric ts needed to drive home the argument for more honesty, effi- ciency and decency in public administration. Not a aingle one of the city institutions is worthy a great city such as St. Louis claims to be. The best managed—the Insane Asylum—was designed to house 850 patients. There are now huddled within its walls 670 persons, while 869 incurably insane patients are confined at the poorhouse. The shame of it all comes home to every citizen. If there is any pride in the city there will be a radical reform before Wisitors come in 1903. - re Every good citizen hopes that the National Civic Federation may accomplish something for conciliation and arbitration in industrial disputes. Arbitration means peace on earth and good will toward men. = = — A MISSOURI INVESTMENT. addition to our splendid position as a fruit state, there fine opportunity for investors to make a handsome profit ber in Missouri. .

Rosebery’s belief that the coming century will be a for fierce international rivalry in the arts of peace and is shared by nearly everybody who watches the drift of ts. The only question is whether the rivalry wil! be seen most in peace or in war. One thing, however, is certain. The wars wil’ be commer- of organization. Mr. Franklin proposes an organization modeled after the organizations of the political parties. There should be a central committee composed of one representative citizen from each of the 28 wards of the city. With this cen- tral committee as the governing body, the organization could be perfected in each ward and precinct. This plan of organization has proved effective to do the work of political parties. It is a simple yet direct method of organizing citizens for the accomplishment of a common purpose. The purpose of this organization would not be political, but solely the public good. It would be directed to securing the best possible men to do the work necessary to be done in St. Louis within the next three years. It would be directed to the election of good candidates to office, regardless of party affiliations, and the promotion of all efforts to improve St. Louis. In short, its great work would be the concentra- tion of public sentiment, public action and public influence in the task of preparing St. Louis for the World's Fair. The sooner practical work is begun the better. Delay is dangerous. The Post-Dispatch repeats the suggestion of the appointment of a representative committee to take all sug- gestions under consideration and devise a working plan. Lord Rosebery’s opinion that but for the folly of British statesmen in 1778 the British seat of government would now be in the United States is doubtless a correct one. But American and British statesmen are both still following the barbarous policy through which Great Britain lost so much of her American possessions. +4 o— England is beginning to fear an exhaustion of her coaland is looking for suggestions as to how its use may be econo- mized.

WAYS TO WOO SLEEP. Toe Shah of Persia was a martyr to insomnia for a long time, until, in a hgppy moment of inspiration, one of the court physicians hit upon the extraordi- nary notion of patting the autocrat on the arms and back until sleep weighed down his eyelids. At the Paris Exposition there was shown the model of a cave once occupied by a fa- mous Greek brigand, who was in the habit of being put to sleep by the dropping of pieces of gold from the roof of the cave on a carpet beneath. The gold thus dropped represented some of the booty that he had required from passing travelers, and so dear had the sound of coin become to him that nothing but its chink upon the ground would soothe his eyelids to sleep. A gentleman who resided for many years in the town of Worcester was unable to sleep unless a dozen peaches were placed under his pillow, as he averred that the perfume of the fruit brought with it a cer- tain degree of drowsiness. Somewhat similar to the device of this worthy was the plan of a Parisian mer- chant, whose only remedy for sleeplessness was the insertior beneath his pillow of a sachet of lavender, the smell of which, he declared, would send him to sleep in less our hearts with cheer. With cheer she filled our drooping hearts and bade us keep in view That one old state, as sure as fate, to Jefferson was true.

If so, he must remember the description of the seizure of the dead earl’s body as a security that certain debts would be paid; how the two evil-visaged agents practiced a little deception, gained access to the house and then sat there like two vultures, gloating over their prey. Reader, our beloved city may be likened to that corpse in its helpless condition; there are two unprincipled, unscrupulous and ut- terly untrustworthy agents vying with each other in their struggle to gain all that re- mains of this once great city. Who are these agents? Why this struggle for supremacy? My friend, I will answer you without drawing breath. I did not think it would be necessary to mention those twin abom- inations commonly termed “St. Louis De- mocratic machine’ and “St. Louis Republi- can machine.”’ They wish to manage St. Louls because they hold it as their just dues that it is a medium through which they are to pay their political debts; that it is the exercising of their special pre- rogative when they leave the city treasury empty. | . man tells you, my friends, that the St. Louis Democratic machine has the in- terests of this city more at heart than the St. Louls Republican machine, then do not listen to him, because he would say that six different answer.

I believe the extra set of wheels would be too much trouble and too much in the way to be adopted by the street railway companies I would suggest a fender shaped like those now in use on the Tower Grove line and about two feet longer, and instead of being held up by ropes or chains attached to the dashboard, as they are now, would be at- tached to an “L’”’ shaped hook, down about ss bony be A age . the car. .Proiecting om e fender and run ‘ the front of it 8S eennaiel to J lunched too well, 4 HE Vicomte de B—, an amiable ae and charming young man, was peacefully enjoying an income of 30,000 livres yearly, when, unfortunately for him, his uncle, a miser of the worst species, died, leaving him all ‘his wealth, amounting to nearly two millions. In running through the documents of succession, the Vicomte de B—— learned that he was the proprietor of a house in the rue de la Victoire. He } , also, that the unfurnished building pougat in 1349 for 300,000 francs, now brought in, clear of taxes, rentals amounting to 82, francs a year. ‘‘Too much, too much, entirely,”’ thought the generous vicomte, “my uncle was too hard; to rent at this price is usury, one cannot deny it. hen one bears a great name like mine, one should not lend him- self to such plundering. 1 will begin to- morrow to lower my rents and my tenants will bless me.” With this excellent purpose in view, the Vicomte de B—— sent immediately for the concierge of the building, who pre- conten em as promptly, with back bent ea bow. “Bernard, my friend” said the vicomte, “go at once from me and notify all your te that I lower their rents by one- That unheard-of word “lower” fell like a brick on Bernard's head. But he quick- ly recovered himeelf; he had heard badly; he had not understood. “Low—er the rents!’”” stammered_ he. “Monsieur le Vicomte deigns to jest. Low- er! Monsieur of course means to raise the rents.’’ “I was never more serious in my life, my friend,’ the vicomte returned ; said, and I repeat it, lower the rents. This time the concierge was surprised to the point of bewilderment—so thrown off his Gaiance that he forgot himself and lost all restraint. s ‘‘Monsier has not reflected,” persisted he. ‘Monsieur will regret this evening. Low- er the tenants’ rents! Never was such a thing known, monsieur! If the lodgers should learn of Its what would they think of monsieur? What would people say in the neighborhood? Truly—— « “Monsieur Bernard, my friend,” dryly in- terrupted the vicomte, “I prefer, when I give an order, to be obeyed without reply. You hear me—go!”’ Staggering like a drunken man Monsieur Bernard went out from the house of his proprietor. All his ideas were upset, overthrown, con- founded. Was he, or was he not, the play- thing of a dream, a ridiculous nightmare? Was he himself Pierre Bernard, or Ber- nard somebody else? ‘‘Lower his rents! lower his rents!”’ re- pees he. “It is not to be believed! ndeed the lodgers had complained! they have not complained; on the trary, all are good payers. Ah! if his un- cle could only know this, he would rise from the tomb! His nephew has gone mad ‘tis certain! Lower the rents! They should have up this "— man before a family council; he will finish badly! Who knows —after this—what he will do next? He rhaps, this mo sig And the worthy Bernard was so le with emotion when he re-entered his lodge, so pale and spent that on seeing him enter his wife and daughter Amanda exclaimed as with one voice: “Goodness! what is it? What has hap- ned to you now?” “Nothing, responded he, with alftrea voice, ‘‘absolutely nothing.” “You are deceivi me,’ insisted Mme. Bernard, “you are concealing something from me; do not spare me; speak, I am strong—what did the new proprietor tell you? Does he think of turning us off?’’ “If it were only that! But just think, he told me with his own lips, he told me to— ah! you will.never belleve me——”" “Oh, yes; only do go on.”’ “You will have it, then! ... Well, then, he told me, he ordered me to notify all.the tenants that—he lowered their rents one-third! Did you hear what L said?— lowered the rents of the tenants——’’ But neither Mme. nor Mile. Bernard heard him out—they were twisting and doubling with convulsive laughter. “‘Lower!” repeated they; “ah! what a good joke, what a droll man! Lower the tenants’ rents.’’ But Bernard, losing his temper and insist- ing that he must be taken Seriously in his own lodge, his wife lost her temper, too, and a quarrel followed! Mme. Bernard de- claring that Monsieur Bernard had, yond a doubt, taken his fantastic order trom the bottom of a litre of wine in the restaurant at the corner. But for Mile. Amanda the couple would undoubtedly have come to blows, and final- ly Mme. Bernard, who did not wish to be thought demented, threw a shawl over her head and ran to the proprietor’s house. Bernard had spoken truly; with her own two ears, ornamented with big, gilded hoops, she heard the incredible word. Only, as she was a wise and prudent woman, she demanded ‘‘a bit of writing’ to put, as she Said, ‘‘her responsibility under cover.” She, too, returned thunderstruck: and all the evening in the lodge, father, mother and daughter deliberated. Should they obey? or should they warn some relativ6 of this mad young man, whose common sense would oppose itself to such insanity? They decided to obey. Next morning, Bernard, buttoning him- self into his best frock coat, made the rounds of the three-and-twenty lodges to announce his great news. Ten minutes afterwards the house in the rue de la Victoire was in a state of commo- tion impossible to describe. People who, for 40 years had lived on the same floor, and never honored each other with so much as a tip of the hat, now clustered together and chatted eagerly. ‘“‘Do you know monstieur?”’ “It is very extraordinary.” mi ply waenee of!’’ “The proprietor’s lowered my rent!” “One-third, is it not? Mine » Pgs “Astounding! It must be a mistake!”’’ And a the affirmation of the Ber- nard family, despite even the “bit of writ- ing’ “under cover,’ there were found among the tenants doubting Thomasas, who aoubted still in the face of everything. Three of them actually wrote to the pro- prietor to tell him what had passed, and to charitably warn him that his concierge had wholly lost his mind. The proprietors responded to these skeptics, connurming what Bernard had said. Doubt, thereaft- er, was out of the question. Then began reflections and commentaries. “Why had -the proprietor lowered his rents?’ “Yea, why?’ “What motives,"’ said they all, “actuate this strange man? For certainly he must have grave reasons for a step like this! An intelligent man, @ man with ¢g sense, would never deprive himself of good fat revenues, well secured, for the simple pleasure of depriving himself. One would not conduct himself thus without being forced, constrained by powerful or terri- ble circumstances."’ And each said to himself: “There is something under all this!’ “But what?" And from the first floor to the sixth they sought and conreetunes and delved in their brains. Every lodger had the preoccupied air of a man that strives with all his wits to solve an impossible cipher, and every- where there om to be a v as it happens w ret, ““t THE ACCURSED HOUSE...

From disquietude it had come to fright; from fright it quickly passed to terror. that the gentleman of the first floor, who had valuables in his rooms, made up his mind to go, and sent In notice by his clerk. Berna went to inform the proprietor, who responded: “All right, let the fool go!’’ But next day the chiro ist of the seo- ond floor, though he had naught to fear for his valuables, imitated the gentleman beneath him.
