It was the first of many charitable deeds which will be accomplished through the fund if the readers of the Post-Dispatch will continue to send in their contributions. | Seventeen boys and 16 girls Who were about to be evicted from the Walton Children’s |Home at $11 North Garrison avenue prayed that God might send them money to pay the rent of the building. Tneir prayer was answered through the Post-Dispatch. : The sum bestowed on the home was taken from the amount subscribed to the Christmas festival fund by the employes of the Post-Dispatch, who generously gavé their consent to such use of the amount. Wednesday morning these children prayed again, but their prayer was not one of | petition, but of thanksgiving. The benediction of these little ones now rests upon the Christmas Festival plan. | The Post-Dispatch fund was started with the purpose of making every one in St. | Louis happy on Christmas Day. : ! Out at Mrs. Walton's home there are 23 children who would have been adrift on the ‘streets on that day but for the intervetion of the Post-Dispatch and its readers. The re- ‘lief of these waifs came plainly within the scope of the purpose of the fund, and no time was lost in accomplishing it. If every well-to-do man and woman in St. Louis could have seen these little ones ‘when they were told that their home had been saved for them, the mails would not be adequate to carry the subscriptions to the fund which would pour into the Post- | Dispatch office.

F nIS MOTH The John A. Ryan, Under Age, Permitted to Wed, TIFY ROSIE SIGNINE THE BRIDE ‘CONFLICT OF OPINION AS TO THE BOY SAID HE COULD GET WORK IF | Wednesday MERITS OF PORTRAITS. The Artist Is Suing the Oil Magnate | for $12,000, Which the Magnate Objects to Paying. Judge H. D. Fisher sent the case of An- ders Zorn, celebrated French artist, against H. Clay Pierce,St. Louis’ oil magnate, tothe Circuit Court of St. Louis County Wedaes- day, holding that the defendant was enti- tled to the change of venue for which he made application Tuesday afternoon. The application was granted on a tecnni- cality and the merits of the case were not passed upon. Three weeks ago the plaintiff secured an order for a special jury, which was duly summoned to come into court morning. in his affidavit for a change of venue, filed Tuesday afternoon, Mr. Pierce claimed that there was a prejudice against him in Bt. Louis and in favor of Zorn, particuiurly among the special venire which the sheriff had served, and that he could not get jus- tice in this city. When Attorneys Frederick W. and Charles Nagel, who represent Zorn, heard of this action. they promptly went into court and waived the special jury and asked that the order for one be with- drawn, which was accordingly done. Te step was taken to prevent the operation of the statute which provides that when a special jury is summoned the party other than the one ordering it is entitled to Lehmagi i ; a | change of venue if he alleges that there is | prejudice against him in the venire. Where there are no special juries courts have a right to say for changes of venue whether there is such prejudice as is charged in the affidavits and may deny or grant the application at thelr discretion. The plaintiff's attorneys the on applications | | | morning. hoped that the waiving of the Spe Cla! jury | would place them in the position they would have occupied if the jury had not asked, and they belleved that the court would hold that the prejudice against Mr. Pierce, a citizen, in St. Louis. is not sx enough to help the case of Artist who has spent only a few weeks in the city.

If any young man doubts that love is an incentive to work let him behold the ex- ample of John A. Ryan, aged 20 years, who received permission from his. mother to marry Miss Rosie Signine of 1114 Angelrodt street on the plea that by possessing a wife he would soon tind employment. The young couple journeyed to Clayton Tuesday afternoon, where they were made one by County Judge Wilson. Mrs. Ryan was the principal witness to the ceremony. The bride surprised her parents, but when Mrs. Signine learned the ¢ircumstances of the wedding she hastened to offer her daughter and son-in-law the heartiest congratulations. The relatives of the happy pair adjourned to the home of the bride's. sister, Mrs. Buck, of Klein street, where a brief celebration followed, At the conclusion the youthful benedict, accompanied by his mother, sister and brother Thomas, re- paired to their residence at 2011 North Thir- — 3313 teenth street.

Dec. 5.—Baron Herman Speck Von Sternberg, formerly secretary of the German embassy at Washington and re- cently appointed consul-general for Ger- many at Calcutta, was married quietly this afternoon at St. George’s Church, Hanover Square, to. Miss Lillian May Langham of Louisville, Ky. The mother and two sisters of the bride were present. Mr. Joseph H. Choate, the United States ambassador, sup- ported the bridegroom. The bride was born in Louisville and is about 24 years old. She is a beautiful blonde, with blue eyes and a most captivating man- ner. Her father is Charles G. Langham, at present located in Denver, Colo. Miss Langham has spent most of her life abroad and made her social debut in the city of Rome, Italy, a few years ago. She has been much admired in London and Paris. Miss Langham met Baron Von Sternburg on a transatlantic steamer two summers ago when she was going abroad with her family. The baron was much [tmpressed with her loveliness and followed her io London, where he pressed his suit. The beautiful Kentucky girl received his at- tentions and a friendship sprang up be- tween them which soon ripened into love, Although the baron received the promise from Miss Langham that she Wtwould be- come his wife, an obstacle was encountered to the immediate announcement of the en- gagement because of the fact that Baron Von Sternburg was in the German diplo- matic service, being stationed in Washing- ton as the first secretary of the German embassy. Hie had been for years in the diplomatic service of Germany and was acknowledged to be a man of learning andd@ great value in that connection.

There was no questioning as to where the |Support of their chorges was to come from. In this way the number of inmates of the home has been increased so rapidly i'that the task has daily grown more difficult. When it became impossible for Mrs. | Walton to pay her rent the owner of the pbuilding entered suit against her in a | Justice’s court. Tuesday he was awarded a judgment. That meant that Mrs. Walton-and her little | charges would be forced by a constable to vacate the building. | lt was a.dark prospect for a woman and a brood of helpless children to face on | the threshold of the joyous Christmas season. With the instinct of a Christian woman |Mrs. Walton sought solace in prayer. The use of a portion of the Post-Dispatch fund to satisfy the judgment was the |, answer to her fervent petition. Now the boys and girls, who were the first to receive | aid from the fund, will remain in the quarters provided for them, and they will be | there Christmas day. Santa Claus will find them at home when he makes his round. _ The boys and girls who are being cared for by Mrs. Walton and Mrs. Croker range 'in age from 3 to -16 vears. They are the chi’dren of the exire mely poor. Only four of | them have parents living. None of them would have any place to go if the y were de- prived of the shelter of Mrs. Walton's roof. Two of them are recovering from attacks of pneumonia. The boys are bright and intelligent and the girls are neat and pretty. The eyes of the children danced with when Mrs. Walton told them Wednesday morning that the rent would be paid out of the Post-Dispatch Christmas festival fund. The boys shouted with glea and the girlS clustered around Mrs. Walton, who was ‘trying hard to keep back the tears of gratitude that would well up despite her efforts to control herself. And when the first burst of joy was over there foliowed a second prayer that blessed the Post-Dispatch Christmas festival and all those who might i contribute to its success. The little old lady whose life is devoted to housing and educating the children of the |} poor could only say: “Thank you: thank you; we shall pray for you always.” ‘That was the first accomplishment of the Post-Dispatch Christmas festival fund. is it not worth while? The condition of the orphans at the Garrison Avenue Asylum strongly appealed to the charitable. Mr. Thomas Francis, during the morning, took up a collection on Change to pay the rent and quickly collected $27. But by the time this sum was collected the Post-Dispatch had satistied the judgment of the landlord and thus assured the orphans shelter for a month. ae and their prayers Wants to Make Poor Happy. + the Editor of the Post-Dispatch My mamma has been reading of children's fund, |] She Canvassed Her Block.

Catarrh hovers ominously over every city, and nestles treacherously in every hamlet. It flies with vampire wings from country to country and casts a black shadow ot despair over all lands. Its stealthy approach and its lingering stay make it a dread to the physicians and a pest to the patient. It changes the r-’erry laugh of childhood to the wheezy breathing of croup, and the song of the blushing maiden to the hollow cough of consumption. In its withering | grasp the rounded form of the fond wife and mother becomes gaunt and spectral, | and the healthy flush of manhood turns to the sallow, haggard visage of the invalid. ‘Cough takes the place of conversation, i spee¢ odors of chronic | branes bedim sight, | stroy | escapes its ravages; | blighting presence. | remedy ' the | lumbus, MRS.

LOUIS. °“ Mrs. Fanny Lachmund’s review in the Sunday Post-Dis- patch of ten years’ progtess in primary work in the St. Louis _ public schools is a most gratifying exhibit. “Educationally,” said Superintendent Soldan recently, ‘“‘the world has made 50 years of progress in the last ten years.”’ Mrs. -Lachmund's story certainly confirms this enthusiastic | opinion. Education, which was formerly a dul! routine. a treading of beaten paths, is now a science cultivated by the best minds. And in no department is this progress so plain); visible as in the primary grades. In this advance 8t. Louis is certainly not behindhand. Mere “fads” have no doubt been tried, but their worthlessness has been demonstrated and they are promptly abandoned. Every new idea has been received for what it is worth after a care- ful test. The consequence is the high rank of educational work in this city recognized and rewarded at the Paris Ex- position. Does ex-President Harrison regard the message as an able @efense of ‘a grave departure from right principles”? = i THE FITZGERALD RESOLUTION.

It is not ab- stract or theoretical, but concrete and practical. But prog- ress depends upon the spirit of mutuality, which is another name for public spirit. Men must honor the community as they honor themselves. Society and the individual} must grow and prosper together. Mr. Cutting’s thought is especially applicable to St. Louis. Every citizen will have profit if he takes it home to himself and lives with it until it bears fruit in action. The sweetest joy of the last Christmas season of the cen- will be the consclousness of having given Christmas Help along the Christmas Festiva] | tury good cheer to another. for the Poor. i ———— ST. LOUIS WILL WIN OUT. As a result of the individual work of the 19 men who vol- unteered to raise $10,900 each for the World’s Fair Fund. $203900 was adued to the Fund. But this sum ‘only part of the fruits of the special efforts of the Wor'd's | air workers. was made along good lines, which | could not. be reported in definite results. | Progress What has been accomplished is encouraging. It shows marked progress towards victory. It shows the determination of the World’s workers to win out for St. Louis. Tt shows ‘an extension of the ranks of workers and a growth of enthusiasm. It rreves an awakening on the part of S8t. Louisans to the obligation and the Opportunity of the city. With the progress accomplished in the first two weeks renowed activity the task should be crowned with in the next two weeks. The rivalry among men able to he!p should now be to have the privilege of subscribing and the ‘greatest share of the work of completing the fund.

DOs eee POLITICAL WISDOM Mr R. Fulton Cutting, president of the New York Citizens Tinion, iseued a statement the other day embodying his views of public policy. Mr. Cutting thinks what the people really demand is “no retrenchment, but growth; not reform, but progress.” The following extract indicates the sentiment and line thought “The ‘people’ is not an abstract term—it is flesh and blooa and the citizen is but a member of the communal family. Good wuges, anti eight-hour day and decent homes for th Wage-earner are more important to the welfare of the capi- taliet than the triumph of monopoly; more small parks and playgrounds for the many than a costly speedway for the few.

Lord Durham Has Taken Little Danny Maher Into Popularity. Special to the Post-Dispatch. LONDON, Dec. 6.—Jockey Danny Maher has ridden into the hearts of the racing men, who control the English Jockey Club, and i{t-is possible he will be the only Yankee rider who will have a license cn the English turf next season. Maher's popularity seems to be based on the impression he made upon Lord D1: ham. That nobleman has conceived a bitier ha- tred of the other American riders and has been wnsparing in his denunciation of them and their methods. His lordship’s enmity is snid to have begun when Jockey H. Mar- tin beat out one of his horses by a nose, thereby causing him to lose some thousands of pounds. It is said the Prince of Wales cancelled his contract with Tod Sloan because the latter would not be Mcensed. Maher will have great ts in his free field if the makes good his ‘st pigeon to shoot! e - “i “ 7 | Could I see the MeGovern-Gans fight | hounds i that | from |} Jumped | the ‘get a glimpse of the first catch, and found | creek for a few hundred yards.

LOUIS UNI- VERSITY ATHLETICS. SOME GOOD MEN DELINQUENT Movement to Exempt the Active Mem- bers of Teams From the Fees Usually Required. Much discussion developed at the meeting of the St. Louis University’s Athletic Asso- ciation Tuesday night over the question of the eligibility of delinquent members of the association to the various athletic teams of the school. A motion to bar all athletes who had not paid their dues was laid before the meeting, but was lost after a somewhat heated argument. The position of those in favor of the mo- tion was that men in. good stanaing should be given the preference over ‘delinquents, regardless of the effect such action might have on the quality of the various teains. It was answered that, under this inter- pretation, athletes at the ‘varsity would be representative of the association merely, and not of the institution. Further, that received by the treasurer from dues, thet: members should begexempt from the regu- he | lar fees of the association . The majority of those present were against handigapping athletics in such a It was the general opinton that it was unjust to ask every member of the various teams to pay the $ dues, as many good men did not feel able to contribute that sum. If such men were to be dropped, many efficient players would have to be replaced by inferior ones. As almost the entire football squad 1s delinquent, it would practically wipe the eleven out of existence. The report of the treasurer of the as- sociation showed that the financial condi- tion of the association was fairly stable. A large debt, left over from last year, was paid up. This favorable showing was in- strumental in the voting down of the mo- tion, as, in view of the treasury’s favor- pble condition, it was not thought neces- sary to pass a resolution of questionable benefit. i fei HE git oh and Jean Fisher. | (his ' the | | property ; are ibe represented on the team. | played it i; among | set forth in a letter by >»? men INTERNATIONAL CHESS MATCH.

In the match between the Office Men and Druggists of the Central Cocked Hat League Tuesday night, the West Enders Succeeded in landing the odd game after a lively set-to. All of the games, excepting the second, were productive of close fin- ishes, the Druggists winning their two games by margins of three pins each, while the Office Men landed the initial contest by three pins and annexed the final at- tempt by two pins. By winning the rub- ber the Office Men passed the Druggists in their race for leading honors in the league, the two teams having been on even terms previous to Tuesday night’s contest. One of the features of the match was the excel- lent bowling of Bradford of the Office Men and Adolph Gtessow of the Druggists, both ,Oof whom appeared for the first time this season.

The brewing representatives are credited today with having spurned compromise and insisted on the swe eping reduction and with having alternative of no bill or no beer tax. The decision concerning beer was arrived at after some division and by a vote. It was first attempted to make the reduction on fea, but this was not cegn- curred in, and the question recurring ‘to beer, the reduction was decided upon. The stamp taxes were almost entirely wiped Out, with the exception of the stamp tax on stocks. Members of the ways and means commit- tee estimate the°aggregate reductions of the bill as framed at $40,000,000. The reduc- tin on beer is understood to be by maktng the rebate 20 per cent instead of Tio per cent, The'2) per cent rebate on $2 per barrel would be 40 cents, making the new tax $1.60.

JEFFERSONVILLE, Ind., Dec. 5.—Re- fused a license to marry the girl he loved on account of his youth, Abe Foutz, a farmer’s boy, disguised himself as an old man, secured a license for a prominent cit- izen already dead, stole Agnes Byrne, his sweetheart, from her father’s house at mid- | night, married her and returned her home without anyone discovering it. That was two months ago, and the mar- | riage might be a secret yet had not the) young bride been forced to tell it to dis- courage David Harper, another suitor. Now Harper wants to test the validity of the marriage. He came to Jeffersonville, told the story, and aswed for a warrant for Foutz’s arrest. Clerk Carr recalls the Inci- dent. He says that if Foutz disguised him- self he {s a born Sherlock Holmes. He looked like a substantial farmer, with his shock of raven hair and matted beard with burrs in different places. The signature used by Foutz was “John Dean.’* John Dean, once a prominent citizen of Byrneville, died the week before the wed- ding. CITY NEWS.
