Continuous Stream of Couples Who Procured Marriage Licenses Poured Through the City Hall Wednesday, in Preparation for the Hundreds of Weddings That Will Be Solemnized in St. Louis on Thanksgiving Day. Wedding bells and turkey wings, (‘ranberries and cake: Pumpkin ples arm! bridal rings, Oh, what mirth they make! Thankful hearts are joined for aye, Wedded on Thankegiving Day. The day “barguin day"’ at the marriage license of- fice. But the rush for the bargain counter which took place at the City Hall Wednes- day morning was such as no past year has equaled, and the Jast Thanksgiving of the nineteenth century bids fair to be a red letter day for Cupid. Warning to “come early rush” had been given to the public, and when License Clerk Gus Fillev and his as- sistant, Emil Leonhardt, recorded the sixty- first license Tuesday afternoon, they ven- tured the hope that a large part of the annual horde of Thanksgiving license seek- ers had been provided for. They changed their minds Wednesday mecrning when they arrived at the scene of their toils shortly before 9 o'clock and found Deputy Recorder Henry Hahn issu- ing the fourth license of the day, while a half dozen couples stood in line-in the room, and every sidewalk leading to the building was Lovers’ Lane for a straggling line of absorbed pairs. Recorder William Hahn arrived about the same time, having stopped on his way to the City Hall to buy it a florist. He pacified the impatient, waiting couples by distr‘buting white carnations among the and avoid the before Thanksgiving is always | ithe | Miss brides-to-be, and for the morning a flower | went with each ligense. To shorten the delay to ap vlicants, Clerk Filley sat on a stesi at his high desk and made out the applications, while his as- sistant sat at a low table by his side and filled out the licenses. Three minutes was the limit of time required for issuing a license unde* this system. Half-Hundred Mark Passed Before Noon. At ll o'clock the half-hundred mark had been passed, and it was estimated that not less than 150 happy couples would have received the state's permission to wed be- fore 5 o'clock, the closing hour. Rev. W. H. Pierce, the colored Baptist Givine, who is a fixture of the license office, was ‘the only person upon the scene who did not share in the general merriment which the continual arrival of the couples created in the City Hall corridor. Up to ll o'clock not one colored coupie had ap- peared, and it became a serious questior. With the elder whether he would have turkey on his table this Thanksgiving. Home weddings, more or less quiet, fig- ured in the plans of nearly all the appli- cants. Few inquired for the location of justices’ offices, and ministers of nearly all denominations re presented in 8t. Lou.s will be called on to render their services in supplementing the work of the busy li- cense clerks. “This is going to be the biggest surprise our folks ever had,’ remarked Charles Ernest of 4141 Fairfax avenue as he left the clerk's office with Miss Lillie Finley of 4115 Finey avenue. “We are going to Rev. Dr. Fullerton's house on Bell avenue to b: mar- red, and then we are going out to tell the family all about it. and be forgiven, and to invite our friends to the Planters’ for a lit- ee per venient.” uren wedding was waiting upon the return from the offic ~~ of ¢ Sacnd Seenard and Alma Kam eres. who live In St. Bonl- face’s Parish n Carondelet The young peo . le left the ¢ ‘ity Hall ho! ding each oth- er's lhande, while the bride's mother followed in proud contemplation.

Miss Van Tine’s parents. who live at 5010 Minerva avenus. will — know, the young lady says, that she is in Bi.

She was to be married to Mr. Wheeler “when she me back North’ and when he received a tter, informing him that she had decided to return at once, he sent a reply which ulied in a visit to the license office a w hours after “‘iss Van Stee 8 trein ar- fived at Union Station.

To her prowess they plight. Miss Mikus is the daughter of Adolph Mi- kus, a well-known citizen of North St. Lou- is, and is empioyed in the De Soto building. At the close of her work Tuesday evening she started homeward, and desiring exer- cise, decided to walk the entire way. In her right hand she carried her purse, containing $8 in cash and a ring. On North Market street near Fourteenth she turned around and noticed a man who appeared to be following her. few feet of the corner he stepped up and owe their present ““Excuse me, madam, but I want to talk to you a moment Miss Mikus stared at the stranger and walked on.

Out went Miss Catherine’s muscular arms, and as the blow dropped a highwayman fell | to the ground. At the same time Miss Mikus called lust- ily for help.* She was a bit frightened, but her presence of mind never left her. The two footpads resolved to overpower her, and then ensued a desperate struggle. The girl was pulled along the sidewalk into the alley. The robbers finally opened her clenched hand and relieved her of the pocketbook. They were about to Strike her when she broke away and ran west on | North Market street. Several persons were attracted to the scene, but too late to be of any assist- ance. When Policemen Derby, Churchill and Dennehy arrived the footpads had stoien away to their hiding places.

Stcggered twice by the rapid fire of the police officer, the highwayman sent three bullets toward his pursuer, fell to his knees at the mouth of a dark alley and crawled into its friendly darkness. Lang was blinded by the first shot of the fugitive, discharged six feet fr his face. The glare of the shot hot from the pistol barrel blotted the form of his assailant from his sight and made him reel. The fierce duel was taken up in earnest and the neighborhood resounded with the staccato of firearms, attracting nearly 100 persons, who chased the officer and his quarry over a course of several blocks. In the holdover of the Four Courts station Charles Muckeridge, a waiter, who gives his address as 110 North Fourteenth street, is incarcerated, partly identified as one of two well-dressed men who robbed ‘the saloon of Cesar Repetto, Fifteenth and Pine streets, and that of Joseph Ginoc- chio, Sixteenth and Olive streets, three |'weeks ago, by ordering the saloonkeepers ‘to elevate their hands skyward. Ginocchio was the person who was com- pelled to turn his back to the robbers as i they ransacked his place. His face was to- wards a large plate glass mirror at the back of his bar and in the glass he saw the passifig show. ‘Chase Begins With Record Sprinting. | The frequency of saloon robberies. in the district caused Officers Louis Lang and John J. Noonan, whose reputations for couragd and attention to duty are good, to be assigned to the beat covering that por- tion of the city. These patrolmen were sauntering west ‘on Pine street just after they had re- ‘ported over the police telephone to the Sue Courts station. They were on op- posite sides of the street and when ap- roaching the corner of Seventeenth 6étreet ang, who was on the south sidewalk, ‘noticed two men peer around the of the White Oaks saloon on the north- | west corner. .

PRESENCE OF MIND DID IT SHE HAD $100, BUT MADE HIM THINK SHE HAD NOTHING. ’ Miss Mary Burg Also Had an Er counter With the Highwayman— ~ With a Companion He Made His Escape. Two well-dressed, genteel appearing highs waymen attempted two robberies on the streets of Kirkwood within a half hour early Tuesday evening. In both cases the intended victims were young ladies and in each instance the at- tempt was a failure. The two young ladies were Misses Eva Williams, the pretty 16-year-old daughter of E..E. Williams, a Missouri Pacific con- ductor, and Miss Mary urge. Miss Williams was the victim of the more determined attempt and but for her prei- ence of mind the highwaymen would have obtained a big reward for their efforts. It was about 6:30 when Miss Williams left her home at Jefferson and Fillmore ave- ’ ' | | } ) i | | | | i nues to take her father’s remittance to the Missouri Pacific station in Kirkwood, amounting to nearly $100 in bills and sil- ver, which Miss Willlams carried in a large envelope. At the corner of Jefferson and Taylor avenues, just one block frdm her home, @ tal, slender, well-dressed young man ac- costed her. She thought it was one of her friends and was not at all frightened. “Have you got any money?” the man asked. She still thought it someone she knew, who was merely trying to scare her, and laughingly replied, ‘‘No.” The man started to walk along with her. It was so dark she could not see, but still it did not occur to her that she had a high- as the fesing | envelope. _ siippe “t to one end with a wayman to deal with.

Lyle of the Finance Com- mittee Will Greet Visitors Wednes- day at the New Offices. It Is Said There That There Is Little Prospect of Full Accori on the Satrilement as Proposed. The new World's Fair headquarters on the second fluor of the Crrleton Building were formally opened at 2 o'clock Wednes- day afternoon. At that hour the committee in charge ot the opening, Messrs. Breckenridge Jones, August Gehner, Charles H. Huttig and ©. Marquard Forster, were on hand and greeted all the visitors most pleasantly. Secretary James Cox had a large register in a prominent position in the room and each visitor was requested to register. It 1s thought that several hundred people will visit the headquarters before 5 o'clock, when the formal opening will be ended. The new headquarters are in the same * gulte of apartments used by the Jefferson Club as campaign headquarters prior to Nov. 6. They are admirably adapted to the urpose for which they have now beer se- ected, being large, roomy and well lighted. It is announced that Mr. Marshall D. Lyle of the finance committee wil! be in charge of the subscription work at the new heaa- quarters. From now on the work of securing the balance of the necessary $5,000,000 will be directed from this headquarters. The new headquarters are not thoroughly fitted up yet, but there are enough desks, subscription blanks and willing workers there at all times now ‘to attend to any of the business for which the headquarters have been established. Two new telephones have been put in. The Kinloch pace has been numbere d B 1903, this number being given it by the tele- phone company with a view of calling the attention all who use it to the year of the Worid's Fair. .

Mr. Gue- nard wrote to the Wagner Electric Manu- woeee per 4 Co. of this, city, saying that he heard there was going to be a Worlds Fair here, and inquiring for particulars.

He said to the Post-Dispatch that he would vindicate himself if it coet $1000. West has the necessary money to secure the best legal talent in East St. Louis and is at present possessed of the determina- tion to fight the case to the court of last resort.

BANK ROBBED: WATCHMAN SHOT Four Burglars Shatter a Safe at Emden, IIl, THEY GET AWAY WITH $2000 CITIZEN, WITH GAG IN MOUTH, SAW THE ROBBERY. Watchman Sanford at Delavan Fatally Wounded in Attempting to Arrest the Burglars on a Train. Special to the Post-Dispatch. PEKIN, lil, Nov. 2.—The Farmers’ Bank of Emdén, 20 miles south of Pekin, was blown open this morning by burglars and $2000 in currency stolen. In an attempt to arrest the robbers at De- lavan, Night Watchman James Sanford was shot and fatally wounded. The thieves are still at large. About+2:45 @’élock the report of a charge of dynamite was heard, and it awakened A. G. Alberts, who resides two blocks from the bank. He went out and ran toward the bank when suddenly two men, one masked, cOov- ered him with their revolvers. They biind- folded him, bound him hana and foot, and took him into the rear room of the bank, where they tied him to a sofa. They then gageed him. Three more charges of dynamite were used, and the vault was completely shat- tered. Mr. Alberts saw everything that took place, and gives a good description of the : em. He had never seen any of them be- ore. They operated, he says, in a deliberate wax, the larger of the gang—there were three men in the bank and one on picket outside—directing the work. They used regular burglars’ tools, drilling two holes in the safe. The men worked dye ox and spoke little. One carried a satchel into which the money was placed. The vault contained $400 in silver in bags. This the bur- giars declined to take, one remarking: ‘‘It’s too heavy and don’ t amount to more than a hundred or so.’ When the work had been completed the men quit the bank and breaking open the door of the Iliriois Central section house, took a handcar and started toward Dela- van, seven miles northwest. Alberts succeeded in freeing himself from bag and bonds and soon spread the alarm elavan was promptly notified, as it was thought the men would discard the handcar there and attempt to get aboard the first passing train. At 5 o’clock the “Hummer” freight train on the Alton pulled into Delavan, Night Watchman James Sanford and Capt. Perry of the policé, searched the train and San- ford spied two men in a car. Sanford advanced on the men and called upon them to surrender. All four of the robbers sprang towa-‘s Sanford and one fired a shot, the bul’ #” assing\!:rough the watchman’s groin. i fell and the thieves pushed him off the car. Meantime, the engineer, who knew noth- ing of the tragedy on his train, had start- ed and it was soon out of Delavan, At Minter, 15 miles north, the engineer saw four men jump from his train and make haste totWard the timber. Posses were organized and now the whole country round about is béing scoured in search of the men. , ww s would is sérious and may prove ata The loss will P aes hurt the bank, which is in good condifion Alberts said today that the robbers when they seized him took away his revolver and one remarked: “I've a notion to put out your lights;”’ commanded that the prisoner be not injured.

UNDERGROUND WIRES UPHELD City Counselor Schnurmacher Says St. Louis Has the Right to Compel All Companies to Bury Their Wires. City Counselor Schnurmacher, in an opin- ion filed Tuesday with the Board of Pub.ic Improvements, takes a contrary view from the opinion of former City Counselor Mar- shall upon the question of placing under- ground the wires of the telegraph compa- nies in the underground district. Mr. Schnurmacher says that the city has the right to compe! the telegraph companies to place their wires under ground, provid- ing that the cOmpanies be given a reasona- ble time to comply with the conditions, His opinion was the result of the appli- cation of the Western Union Co. to erect a row of telegraph poles on the north side between Broadway and street. The te.cgraph companies have made application to place their wires underground, and it was only Mr. Mar- shall's opinion that prevented. Sewer Commissioner Hermann has drafted ordinace which enlarges the under- zround district, and provides for the bury- ‘ing of the telegraph, telephone and the heav- ily-charged feed wires of the street railway companies.

The first number he played was ‘Airs Russes,’’ by Wieni- awski, in which he brought forth tones re- sembling the low, pure sounds of the hu- mun voice. Several seconds followed its completion, so entranced were his hearers, and then came an outburst of applause. In the seeond part of the program Mr. Kreisler played a group comprising the “Sarabandi” of Bach-Sulser; ““‘The Dance Espagnol,” of Chaminade Kreisler and Flu- bay’s “Scencsde Czarda.’’ All were re- ceived with unbounded applause.

Blood Poison, Followed by an Acute Attack of Kidney Disease—His Public Record. ST. PAUL, Minn., Nov. 28.—United States Senator Cushman Kellogg Davis, chairman of the committee on foreign relations in the Senate, died at his home in this city at 8:48 o'clock this evening, after an ill- ness of two months. He has suffered greatiy during his sickness, and gradually _ ®ank away, Peing unconscious for several hours before death, and so far as could be known, suffering no pain. Senator Davis’ iliness began in August, when he was obliged to withdraw from the political campaign through the abrasion of the skin of a tce, and which developed into a mild case «f blood poison. Little was thought of this affliction at the time, but three weeks ago it became necessary to am- CUSHMAN K. DAVIB. putate the toe to save further complications. Bince then the foot was lanced several times, and finally began to heal. Then a kidney complication appeared, which was called acute inflammation of the kidneys. Bince then the patient has fought bravely against the malady, but while the injured foot was slowly healing the kidney dis- ease was sapping his life. For the past three days Senator Davis has been wildly delirious and growing weaker. Mr. Davis was born in Henderson, Jeffer- gon County, New York, June 16, 1838. In that year his parents moved to Waukesha, Wis., where his father farmed until 180. After attending the common schools young Davis spent three years in Carroll Coliege at Waukesha, preparing. himself for the Uni- versity of Michigan, from which he gradu- ated in 1857. During his boyhood he held for some time a position as teiegraph opera- what is now a suburb of Milwaukee. er his graduation he entered the .aw of- of Alex W. Randall, afterwards war governor of Wisconsin. In 1860 Mr. Davis began the practice of law and alse took an active part in the cam- resulting in the election of Lincoln. years later, war having come, he ciosed his law office to enlist in the volunteer army. He served for two years in the army of the Tennessee in Kentucky, Tennessee, Arkansas and Mississippi, part of the time on staff duty. When, in 184, broken health compelled his retirement, he was first lieu- tenant of Company B, Twenty-eighth Wis- in Volunteer Infantry. ing to St. Paul he formed a law part- hip with his army chief, Gen. W. A. Gorman, ex-governor of Minnesota Terri- tory. In 1386 he was elected to the state legisiature, and two years later was ap- pointed United States district attorney, servi five years in that position. In by a majority of one vote he was nominated by the Republicans for governor and elected by a majority of 5496. ‘lhe cam- issue was then new, being whether state could control the charges of rail- Gov. Davis asserted this right and such legislation was enacted and enforced during his term of office. During a pro- tracted senatorial contest at that session Gov. Davis was one of the candidates, but Chief Justice McMillan was finally elected. t was at this time that the great grass- pper plague devastated southwestern Minnesota and Gov. Davis raised over $100,000 in money besides supplies for the victims of the plague. Gov. Davis declined a renomination and resumed the practice of law. His successor, Gov. Pillsbury, retained him to argue in of the state of Wisconsin against the city of Duluth and the state of Minnesota, to restrain the opening of the present Duluth ship canal through which ali the commerce of that port now passes. Mr. Davis won the suit for Minnesota. He continued in the practice of law until 1887, alsu giving consid- erable attention to politics. in 1880 he head- ed the Blaine delegation to Chicago,where | he made one of the nominating speeches for that candidate. uring 1886 many of the state newspapers advocated his election as United States Senator and when the legislature of 158i met Senator McMillan withdrew as a can- didat ceived every vote.

NEW YORK, Nov. 28.—A virtual agree- ment upon the essential features of pro- posed legislation for the army was reached last night by war department officials, with the President's approval and that of the congressional leaders. It provides for a permanent standing army organization with a minimum strength of 60,000 men, to be in- creased as occasion demands by doubling the size of companies in the discretion of the President as commander-in-chief and subject to the limitation of annual appro- priations. The new line organization will provide officers about 400 in ex- cess of those at present in the regular es- tablishments to meet the requirements of companies of 70 men each. These companies may be increased to 140 men each without additional officers. Permanent allowances will be made for 18,000 artillerymen in regi- mental organization, who are needed to care for the coast defences. The framers of the adopted plan favor empowering the President to enlist natives in the Philippines not to exceed 15,000 men, as needed to be organized in regiments with American officers, after the English manner of fighting rebellious natives with their ‘own people. Gen. MacArthur has urged this si and given assurances that he gan easily select experienced of- ficers from the volunteers in his division and will have no difficulty in getting de- sirable enlistments for an efficient and loyal! native contingent similar to the Macabebe cavalry, now 600 strong. The new permanent organization, 60,000 Strong, is confidently believed to be in- sured, not a doubt being expressed by war department officials and, congressional lead- ers that the House and Senate are prepared to agree promptly to the new military basis. As to the elastic features involving the dis- cretionary power of the President to in- créase the size of companies to not more need double their strength, there is some oubt. TOBACCO TRUST CHANGES. The Doerhoefer Brothers Pull Out of the Directory. LOUISVILLE, Ky., Nov. 28.—Changes in Louisville of great interest in connection with the American and Continental To- bacco Co. will go into effect Dec. 1. John Doerhoefer, one of the most widely known tobacco men in the country and one of the moving spirits in the so-called to- bacco trust, has resigned as a member of the board of directors of the American Co. and also as a general manager of the company’s Louisville establishment. Basil Doerhoefer has resigned as director of the Continental Co. and as general man- ager of the rehandling plant in this city. Marcus Doerhoefer, brother of John and Basil Doerhoefer, has tendered his resigna- tion as general manager of the plug factory here. It is said in Loufsville that the three resignations mean that the Doerhoef- er brothers, who have been such a power in the affairs of the trust since its organi- zation, have severed their connection with ?the combine for good, and hereafter may _— against it in the independent eld. John Doerhoefer refuses to say whether he and his brothers have sold their to- bacco stock or whether they will engage In business independently of the big com- panies. The resignations of the Doerhoefers will come before the regular weekly meeting of the general boards of the two tobacco com- panies in New York this week. PERRY S. HEATH’S VACATION.

The country members of the board have won out in their fight against the Chicago members, and a@ general increase of 10 per ‘cent in the Cook County assessment has been agreed upon. At the same time, the assessment of the outside counties wil!. in most instances, be reduced 15 per cent. The action of the state board adds some $28,000,000 to the Cook County ass-ssment. However, this substantial increase leaves the equal- ized valuation of the property in Cook Coun- ty $90,000,000 below that of last year. Although this matter has not been finally passed upon by the full board, the com- mittees in charge of the several classes of property have definitely settled upon the percentage of reduction and increase, and the figures undoubtedly will stand where they ore now placed.

She knows that he needs every minute of his time and all of his ingenuity to hold his position and make headway in his business. e She wants to help and not to hinder him. Yet, she has those awful sensations of weariness and weakness which, fight as she will, she cannot conquer. She has headaches and a dreadful bearing-down feeling which nothing relieves. She doesn’t sleep well, and is frequently attacked with dizziness. She keeps her troubles to herself as much as possible and consults the doctor, who doesn't help her.

MISSISSIPPI RIVER IMPROVEMENT. The action of the Business Men's League at the quarterly meeting of the association marked: an important step toward the realization of plans for the improvement of the Missigsip- pi river, so that it may be utilized as a commercial waterway ell the year round. No subject is of more vital interest to St. Louis. No achieve- ment promises better continuous results for the people of St. Louis and the entire Mississippi valley. A permanent navigable channel in the Mississippi for continuous freight transportation would mean a great leap forward in profitable business activity. Ex-Gov. Francie hardly overstated the case when he said it Was a crime not to utilize the Mississippi as it should be. His Opinion was shared by Congressman Bartholdt, President Whitelaw of the Merchants’ Exchange, General Manager E}- Hott of the Burlington Railroad, who spoke for the railroad interests, and other speakers. The improvement of the Mississippi is in line with the World's Fair movement which celebrates the acquirement of 15 cents 65 cente 45 cents large portion of the working population—all these are ob- vious and undeniable. .The victories of Américan diplomacy and the sure approach of American pre-eminence in the world of commerce, letters and art are not less conspicuous and gratifying. These, are the plain goods of life which can be weighed in the balance and marked with a price. They are essential] goods and gratitude is due for their abundance. derived. They correspond to and are the results of the wis- dom, character and steadfast purpose of the men who laid the foundations of American institutions, and ,their maintenance is due to the same elements in the American blood of today. The endowment of character from which material good pro- ceeds {6 the real blessing for which we have greater reason to give thanks. The prayer of Thanksgiving should include a petition that the social character which has made America what it is ma be continued to save and prosper future generations. , oe = = The opening of World's Fair headquarters in the Carleton Building today is an important step towards the close of the work of raising the World’s Fair fund. It is an extension of the admirable systematic work of the World’s Fair com- mittees Into the popular fleld whereby an opportunity is of- fered every citizen of St. Louis to become an active partner in the great enterprise. The event should be utilized for the inauguration of an enthusiastic effort which will make the completion of the World’s Fair fund a question of a few days. It can be done. The men of St. Louis are capable of the effort. It requires only the concentration of co-operative en- ergy. Let there be no deadheads and no laggards in this community achievement. Go to headquarters with subscrip- tions and take your friends there. Push the World's Fair. —— &@ @& @ ———- + -—— = — THE BRIDGE ARBITRARY. Mr. fiw. Van Cleave’s address before the Manufacturers’ Assoctation on “The Bridge Arbitrary” was to the point. This evil which has already worked great injury to St. Louis should not be allowed to continue. As Mr. Van Cleave ob- served it is just ae absurd to bill New York goods to Hoboken or Jersey City as it is to bill St. Louis freight to East St. Louis. The imposition of this bridge toll is in the nature of a tribute, for which no compensating acvantage is given. St. Louis has witnessed the removal of several manufacturing plants to the east side, because of this arbitrary charge. The movement should be arrested before going any further. Make St. Louis a basing point. Give it a place on the map as a railroad center and arrange the tariffs with some regard to the large interests involved. Justice demands this policy and the railroad companies shduld see the importance of it, not only to St. Louis, but to themselves. They certainly cannot afford to impair the value of their own shipping points. eee -- -__—_~ In the death of Cushman K. Davis the county loses the serv- ices of a man of conspicuous ability, great learning, bound- less energy and undoubted patriotism. Mr. Davis made for himself a plage in the front rank of public men almost im- mediately upon his entry into the United States Senate in 1887. In al] respects he discharged hig public duties accord- ing to the dictates of right as he saw it and always com- manded the respect and admiration of his colleagues of all political parties. He will go into history as one of the posi- tive forces in American public life. > Se With sixty-two divorces granted in one day of Thanksgiv- ing week in the courts of St. Louis. may not those who are in haste to marry pause and reflect?

In just one week, without solicitation, a number of Post- Dispatch readers, many of them children, have raised a fund which is sufficient to provide a turkey Thanksgiving dinner for the patients and employes of the Female Hospital. Wed- nesday 300 pounds of best selected fresh turkeys will he Gelivered at the Hospital and on Thursday the 214 patients and 60 employes will be made glad by a Thanksgiving feast which they did not expect.

Taxation of franchises is in the air. Both parties demanded this in their platforms and the Dem- Ocratse seem disposed to redeem the pledge. No surer way to obtain public favor can be taken. There bave been several attempts to procure a law looking to this end, but the lobby has defeated them all. It remains to be peen whether the legislature elected Nov. 6 will be faithful and ignore the seductive solicitations of the agents of fran- ehise-holding corporations who swarm in the capital. The taxation of franchises is required by the public interest, and @0 legisiation could be more popular.

After a quarter of an hour of this |silent contemplation, he jumped over the ‘garden fence and entered the courtyard. 'To the right of him was the brewery; the ‘round tub, its huge belly encircled by iron bands, was dimly seen in the moonlight; the hatchet with its crooked handle, threw out a blue Hight in the darkness; the plane, the pincers and all the implements of a cooper, lay scattered around; further off 'was the big thumbscrew obliquely lighted ‘by the rays of the moon; he advanced slow- ily, bree thins the slightly bitter odor of the fermenting hops and the cooling wine, ' Otherwise not a sound was heard, not a breath stirred the stillness of the night. — seated himself on a barrel, mMurmur- ng: “Ah! how good it is here!’’ He gazed at the trellis-work around which a festoon of ivy clung, at the little basins in the courtyard from which the chickens ate, at the laundry door to the | tated the first crow Gretchen often | from the fog, lisping, slow and grave; you left; and all this, because walked there, assumed in his eyes a strange significance and an indescribable charm. “O!" he sighed, come out for one moment.

What is that,. he wondered, as he softly xlided farther into the courtyard. There the same noise was Fepeated two or three times. Theodore turned round and round, not being able to make head or tall of it. | Suddenly an idea struck him, he parted the branches of a bush covered with red tufts, and saw at the foot of the outer wall, Kasper Noss, the fool, who was seat- ed on the grass, his legs spread out, the skirt of his blouse covering his shoulders, his old trousers of thin cloth drawn to one ‘side by the strap, and his torn three- cornered hat between his knees filled with excellent grapes, which he had without doubt just stolen from some neighboring vineyard. The merry fellow seemed as happy as a thrush, his prominent fore- head, high cheek bones and little shining nose all plainly visible in the moonlight He it was who was smacking his tongue. He lifted the bunch of grapes whole and hung them over his open mouth. His fold- ed throat swelled out with ease: “He: He!" he cried cooingly Great nettles bent toward him in the shadow of the wall, and a few dry thistles stood like sentinels at his feet. sald Theodore, ‘is this “Ah! scamp!” how you spend your nights” The fool nonchalantly turned his head to- wards him, his eyes wrinkled mockingly and, without lowering the grapes from his mouth, said: O, it is you, Theodore? my grapes.” “From whom have you gtolen them?” Kasper, pointing with hi} thumb, said: | “Below there—there are pienty’’'— | “Come, how is that? Did you steal them ‘from Reebstock’'s yineyard?’’ “Yes, Theodore,” the other answered mply. “And if I should denounce you?” “No, you will not do that.’ “And why?’ q’ “Because, you would then have to tel! at what hour you had seen me.” Come and taste si these words, Kaspar Noss’ v@culiar fashion: As he uttered little eves squinted in he la ned. ond oy" A the ng. murmuring am the fool not he.”’ But the s, , robber!

Do you not give me tobaccw when I ask it of you, and all] your old pipes? Yes, yes, she dreams of you all night xp Come, now, sit down and I wil: make her come out to you.’’ Theodore, as if fascinated, sat down— then the fool made him take a bunch of grapes. “Bat that,’”’ he said, “you have often given me bread, why should I not make you a present?” Theodore took the grapes to be agree- able, and found them delicious. They were real Marko-Brunner. Noss laughed, then joining his hands be- fore his mouth, he let forth a gutteral sound, the cry of the awakening quail. It was so true that, far away in the field, a quail was fooled, imagining it was daylight in the middle of the night, it answered three times. “What have you done?” asked the young man. ‘“‘Advanced the hour,’ Noss joyously re- plied; “it is now 4 o'clock around the brew- ery.”’ “Leave me alone, let me do it,”’ he said, as Theodore tried to stop him—‘'Gretchen will come out—old Reebstock is a sound sleeper; he will not awaken!’’ And leaning against the fence, Noss imi- of the cock, hoarse his ‘could almost see the cock shaking Five | feathers and fluttering on his perch. ‘i¢ Gretchen would but | or six hens hopped down the ladder of the | over fig ears; the little barher, rary henhouse, anxiously looking at the moon through a hole in the roof. “You rogue,"’ whispered Theodore, where did you learn all these tricks?” But Kasper “Do not ask me; don’t you know that | lL am a fool?’ The hens, finding out thelr mistake, start- up the ladder again; but the (ed to hop full of malice. chased them ‘village fool, }and started them clucking.

~S é - é NDS RALLY 10 HER SID Jessie Want for Sympathy. TRIAL WILL COST $10,000 OBSTACLES IN THE WORK OF SE- LECTING A JURY. Deputy Sheriffs Become Rough Riders Through the Country, Summoning the Needed Veniremen From the Farms. Special to the Post-Dirpatch. BUDORADO, Kan., Nov. 2.—The friends of Jessie Morrison are standing by her with fealty that is realty sublime. Not a relative in the community has slighted the frail lit- tle woman who is being tried for the mur- der of Mrs. Olin Castle. Father, brothers and sister are in court daily. Hg sister, Mra. Eller, was in the court room again this morning, her 3-year-old child piaying about her knees. Occasionally the child stood by the side of the prisoner, who placed a hand upon the little one’s curls. It is well that Butler County is one of the wealthy counties of Kansas, for the trial of Jessie Morrison will cost the coun- ty about $10,000. There are about 100 wil- nesses in the Morrison case. They receive $1.50 a day. So that for every day that this army of witnesses is in attendance the county must pay $150. The jurors who are fummoned receive $2 a day for attendance and 6 cents a mile for the distance which they travel. The long time sure to be spent in the trial of the case, the great number of witnesses and jurors summoned and the fees paid to the sheriff and his deputies will combine to make the amount of ex- pense for thia trial great. But this case is to be tried—at least this seems to be the attitude of the court at peepent—It every man in the county has to summoned in order to obtain a jury of | 12 competent men. There is on record one case in which never came to trial because there were not competent jurors enough in the county to form a jury. The case was in Stevens County about eight years ago. There Were not more than about 200 men on the assessment list of the county who could be summoned as jurors. And there weré not twelve among those who did not know too much about the case to act as jurers. The man on trial was James Bren- nan, the slayer of Col. Sam Woed, in a fight growing out of a contest fér a county |geat, and the prisoner was released be- cause, under the law, the court could not send for jurors outside of the county. Ag the Morrison case proceeds the curl- osity of the people of Hidorado and those who come to town increases. The court- room is always crowded and among the eager spectators there were today as many women as men. Those who have not seen Jessie Morrison are curious to get a look at her. Women who come into the court stand and stare at her. But they have only the satisfaction of seeing her back, cause she sits always with her face to the judge and the jury, and her back to the room full of spectators. Jessie Mor- rison has been complaining much of late of headache and her eyes show that she suffers pain. But she never loses her com- sure while she is in the courtroom, and ave Whitehead, the ta:i deputy sheriff who has been her special guard during her imprisonment, says that she is calm and never restiess while she is in her cell. She has spent much time in reading va- rious magazines and books, but she does not look at books or newspapers now, but sits pouring over her bible. Many of the wembers of the three fami- lies involved in the tragedy attend all of the sessions of the court. Mr. and Mrs. T. ©. Castile, father and mother of Olin Cas- tle, usually in the room, and today Miss Ada Castle, the tall young sister of the widower, sat by his side before the railing o. the court rvom. Yesterday at 7:30 o'clock, after recess for supper, ths jury box was carried into the courtroom, and in the presence of Judge Shinn and the attorneys for the state and the defense, the county clerk, H. A. J. Co pins, and two justices of the peace, W. ty Avery and B. F. Allabach, 181 names were drawn from the box. This emptied the jury x. Summonses were given to six depu- ties under Sheriff Turner, and by midnight they started out, some on horseback and some in buggies, to reach the farmers, stockmen and business men _ throughout Butler County. The command of the court must be obeyed immediately. Farmers were Pee from the slumber of midnight by the heavy knock of the sheriffs on the door and told that at daylight they must start for the courthouse in Eldvrado. They were given no time for preparation, and on many of the farms of Butler County today the women are feeding the stock and dome the heavy work of the men, while their husbands are at court. The sheriffs ride night and day through farms, pasture land and villages, unti! all the summonses are served. Why Shiver? Speaking values. Great Suit and Overcoat Sale.

Mr. Lease says he will not contest the sult, For the last three years Mr. and Mrs. Lease have not lived together. In the sev- en years prior to that she was in politics, and was at home little of the time. Mr. Lease said today that he was getting tired of being referred to as ‘‘the husband of Mrs. Lease.”’ Charies Tease is one of the business men of the city.and has always taken a vigor- ous part if the community's political life. He has a host of friends. During all the ridicule he has had to endure as “the hus- band of Mrs. Lease.’’ when he was depic ed as effeminate and dependent. he has main- tained a uniformly good humor. Mr. and Mrs. Lease were Osage Mission, Kas., in July, 1873. They have four children, two sons and two daughters, all except one of whom are of age. The youngest son is with his mother in New York. The beginning of Mary Elizabeth Lease was at the wash tub. There was no luck in her marriage and she took in washing to help keep the pot boiling. She already was the mother of two children.

McGovern is going out of his class in that fight, and, of course, it cannot be con- sidered in the light of any championship unless McGovern should happen to defeat the negro. In this case Terry would have a good claim on the lightweight champion- ship. Sam Harris, Tery’s manager, is particu- larly anxious to make the match, since Jordanis about the only one of the bona- fide featherweights whom McGovern has not defeated. Terry wants to have a clear title to the featherweight fonor. Nothing has been heard from the English- in regard to the match, but it Is the meeting cannot be decided on until word is received from Jordan. Manager Harris says he would be quite to match with Jordan for the feather-weight championship of the world 122 pounds at the ringside, or would concede a little better than that if the British boxer wanted it so, Still, if the fight is to be for the feather-weight cham- pionship, it would have to be at 122 pounds at the ringside.

Wid- ow Brown,” will be produced at the Mc- Causland Opera House Thanksgiving mati- nee and evening. Chauncey Southern will take the part of the widow, and his antics are said to be funny in the extreme. Mr. Southern is the possessor of a rich baritone Voice, which he uses to good advantage in the musical numbers on the program. Hal Brown as Granville Hart, is said to be one of the features of the show. Mr. Brown was formerly a comedian in Hoyt's “A Bunch of Keys."’ Several well known vaudeville performers are with the show, among whom may be mentioned Charlie Barrington, clever imi- tator of musical instruments and animais; Annie and Lillian Doherty, better known as the Doherty sisters, who do a singing and dancing. turn, and May Wentworth, whose piano recital, which she introduces in the second act, is one of the taking inovations in the play. THE WAR IS NOT OVER. Daily Battles and More Troops Needed in South Africa. LONDON, Nov. 2.—While the reports of the condition of Cape Colony are regarded as somewhat unnecessarily alarmist, there is little disposition to take a tov roseate view of the general situation. The constant dispatch to South Africa of reinforcing drafts, and the daily fights at points wide apart, show the war is not over, and, while the statement that Lord Roberts has de- manded 20,000 fresh troops is incorrect, it is a fact that he has asked for 8) men to replace the battalions whose wastage in- capacitates them from duty at the front. These reliefs will be dispatched, but they will seriously attenuate the garrisons of the United soa y= insomuch as Lord Roberts insists the troops shall be picked men some the seen since. ask the St locating the Custom Prescribes Attorney’s Fees From Pearson's Weekly. Legal etiquette in Great Britain does not aiiow a counsel to accept a brief for less than 1 guinea and 2s 6d for his clerk, al- though he may not possess a clerk. Should the brief be a docker—which means a case in which the counsel undertakes without the intervention of an atorney to defend the prisoner in the dock—the counse! is not allowed to accept more than 1 guinea,’ be- cause the fact that the prisoner has not en- gaged a solicitor implies that he cannot cpece more than a guinea.

SEP se GOLFER VARDON COMING WEST. NEW YORK, Nov. 2%.—Harry Vardon will make a flying trip to Colorado before sailing for home,» Dec. The Denver Golf Club has been trying for some time to get him for an exhibition match, but he declined to make so long a trip for one game. The golf club at Colorado Springs re- cently requested a Vardon match and plans have been perfected so that Vardon will leave the city for Denver on Monday. The return trip will be made one week from that date, giving him two or three days in New York before sailing for home. Vardon is evidently disappointed in not being able to reach the Pacific coast, but that plan had to be abandoned. The Chi- cago professionals, Willie Smith and David Bell, are cific clubs, and Vardon, a short time wrote to Smith, expressing a wish to him in some matches on California links. Vardon, it seems, is not going to remain long in his native country. to America early in the year and there is some talk that he will settle here per- ago, meet manently. A QUESTION OF RESIDENCE England’s Lord Chief Justice Trying to Ascertain If W. L. Winnas Was a Resident of Baltimore or London. LONDON, Nov. 2.—The Lord Chief Jus- tle’s Court is occupied at present with a domiciliary resident of Great Britain when he died tm 1897. This question is being test- ed on account of a legacy of £2000 willed to his sister-in-law, Fillen Delaurue, on which the crown claims a legacy duty. As the attorney-general smilingly re- marked, the decision, of course, will affect the whole of Mr. Winans’ millions, and counsel for the crown proceeded to re- count the estates and shootings leased by Mr. Winans on which he lavished enor- mous sums of money, including £70,000 on the shooting leased from Lord Lovat, “constituting,” contended the attorney-gen- eral, “ample proof of his settlement in this country. Walter Winans testified that his father always regarded Baltimore as his home. The case is proceeding. RIVER BULLETIN. U. 8. DEPARTMENT oF AGRIOULTURB, WEATHER BUREAU ST.

Captain Saw His Bicycle Stolen and the Chief Engineer a Brace of Gram- ophones—Privations in an Open Boat. NEW YORK, Nov. ®..—Quartermaster James Carr of the Liverpool steamship In- dradevi, lazily smoking alongside the South Central pier, Atlantic dock, was one of the heroes of the wreck of the Indra, her looted sister. whose crew of 70 souls was attacked by Somali pirates in the Gulf of Aden a aA days ago: It was at 2:50 o'clock on a greasy morning jae the quartermaster, who tells this tale, was shaken out of his birth, as the sugar liner climbed for her whole length on a | broad rock 22 miles south southwest of Cape Guardaful, of Africa. , Capt. Burkill was trying to feel his way up the southern coast of the Gulf of Aden, not aware that he was still in the Indian for Somali land is too barbarous the tip of the easternmost hip ‘to erect lighthouses. | for the coolles “It had been hazy the best part of that day,”’ said the quartermaster. ‘““‘The cur- rents and one thing and another had done the rest.

It took six or elght times as long to get the boats out as it | Would have taken a white crew. They had to be driven to it. Four Cats Were Rescued. The four cats that lived aft went right up to the boats, and stood ready to be saved. The captain ordered the cats to be placed in the boats. The black cat that lived forward with the coolies sat on her haunches unconcerned on the foredeck, | and was abandoned to the Somalis. /sandy beach, | tlepoo!l our other two boats had | 'all shore near Berbera, | be a ruse to capture us for a a cootle who under- | stood the Somali men's lang’ ' i | for ransom : Two of the boats in charge of Chief Offi- cer Muskar and Third Officer Kenberg, with 37 men, well supplied with Sansa goods, but having only two small breakers of water for each boat, pushed off to cross the gulf and get assistance in the track of Steamers. We had the other two boats swung out handy and provisioned. “The wreck had a very heavy list to port. Daybreak revealed 440 yards away a low with juts of rocks here and there, lying up very large. Over these oc- casional rises of roek boomed, a very bad, heavy surf. A solitary black Somali man, clad in only a loin cloth, stood upon the sands, and beckoned to us. Three hours later there were 300 Somali men, clad in loin cloths and flourishing spears, guns, darts and bows and arrows. which, upon a signal from the chief Somali man, they began discharging at the ship. The guns were rifles of the Moorish type. Darts, spears and bullets fell about 50 yards short into the surf. As we were hauling our boats around the stern into calmer water the natives, just like fish, and without as much as a bit of bark to float upon, plunged into the surf and made for'the wreck. To repel their attack we had only one toy preter, which would not have dented a sardine box. ‘Thousands cr sharks rolled and gaped with hunger around the ship, their dirty white bellies flashing as they darted for flotsam from the wreck. The black Jpirates paid not the slightest attention to the finny sea robbers. “As soon as we were at a safe distance we lay on our oars. The wleckn swarmed up beats’ falls and tackle, yelling and dancing in piratical puaoure as they be- gan to strip the wrec ‘Capt. Burkill saw a spearman run to the side with his bicycle and toss it over- board to a fellow, who swam ashore with the loot as if it had been really useful to him. They threw every bit of gear to the others tn the water. Mr. Taylor, chief engineer, had the end berth on the bridge. Imagine his feelings as he saw two pirates rush out with the gramophones bought in the States. The cylinders were in the gramophones. The levers having been turned down in the me- lee. the instrumemnts started to play the ‘Washington Post’ march and ‘There is Only One Giri in the World for Me.’ “With yells of astonishment and fright, no doubt belleving the gramophones were Lewitched, the Somal men threw them over- board and discharged another shower of spears and leaden slugs, which fell some thirty or forty yards short of us. ‘Lower away my bathtub, you black rascals.’ shouted Chief Taylor, as he saw his gramophones borne shoreward by un- familiar savages, who swam with remark- able abandon among rocks and sharks.

CHARGED WITH SWINDLING Discretionary Pool Brokers Have Em- ployed the Attorney Who Once Prosecuted Them on Same Charge. NEW YORK, Nov. 28.—Charles D, Hughes and Ira D. Godfrey, who are said to have conducted a discretionary pool brokerage business in this city, have been arrested. ‘The charge against them is grand larceny, land they will be arraigned on that charge today. Specific complaints against them were made by J. T. Amsberg, an attorney of Defiance, O., and August Irmsur of Brooklyn. Amsberg, however, made a set- tlement and withdrew from the prosecution. 'Irmsur is still a complainant and says his claim is for $239. Capt. McCluskey of the Detective Bureau @ays Hughes was arrested on Nov. 2, 1899, and is now under $5000 bonds. At that time there were many complainants, and one was a Swedish servant girl. After he was liberated under bond, Capt. McCloskey said Hughes went into business with Godfrey, who claims to be a member of tie New York Stock Exchange. A lawyer named Zaring was the counsel for the pesnepet complainants against » Hughes when he was arrested in 1889. He is now counsel for Hughes and Godfrey.

They Find “Hop Ale” to Be Full of Jags and the Circuit Court at Ma- comb Decided Against It. Special to the Post-Dispatch. MACOMB, Ill., Nov. 24.—It took the per- sonal experience therewith of the city at- turney and a police officer to ascertain pos- itively that ‘“‘Hope Ale,”’ alias ‘‘Hop Tonic,”’ alias another time ‘‘Maltina,’’ was the ciass of beverage that the W. C. T. U. calls un- godly and intoxicating. These two gentlemen experimented with the drink, not because they liked it, but en- tirely in the interest of law, order and so- briety, and for the purpose of providing a safeguard for those citizens of Bushneil who might be led into temptation through sheer ignorance of its inebriating effects. On the testimony given in open court and amidst the plaudits of the virtuous minded and abstemious citizens of the city, Judge Grey of the Circuit Court gave a decision in which he held that ‘‘Hop Ale” and its sev- eral aliases were intoxicating, and that a city had a right to regulate, control and for- bid its sale. The case was that of the city of Bushnell vs. Laugel, who was arrested under an ord- inance passed especially by the council! to control and stop the sale of this liquor in Bushnell.
