NEW YORK, Dec. 15.—Christian Sctence is being widely discussed before Surrogate Fitzgerald in the contest over the will of Miss Helen C. Brush. who bequeathed $60,- 000 to the First Church of Christian Scien- tist of this city. Much of the testimony re- lates to the methods of healing the sick by so-called Christian Scientists. Mrs. Anna Aikman Holden, one of the Subscribing witnesses to the will, testified that Miss Brush was of sound mind at all times. “Was Miss Brush a Christian Scientist ?’’ inquired Mr. Bowers. “I do not know whether she took patients r not. She was qualified to act, so far as know, " replied Mrs. Holden. ‘Do Christian Scientists have certifi- Cates?’’ “They do.”’ “Who issues the certificates?” The Massachusetts Metaphysical Col- lege. That's where mine came from.” Did you ever practice as a healer?” **l did.’’ “tiow often?’ Frequently.” ‘That was in accordance with the book entitled ‘Science and Health?’ ” _+e@s, it was.”’ ‘Do Christian healers attend persons also attended by physicians?’ “No, sir; no Christian healer would at- tend a patient attended by an ordinary phy- sician.”” “Don’t Christian Scientists die?’ “They do.’’ “What is the proceeding in getting death certificates when Christian Scientists die ?’’ “2 don't know: 1 have never had any ex- perience in that matter.’’ “Isn't it a teaching that Christian Science healers send other persons away from the patient and separate the patient from all other persons’’’ Say Faith Will Cure a Cancer. “Not unless the other persons are antag- Onistic to Christian Science.”’ “If the other persons do not believe in | Christian Science they are excluded from the patient ?’’ “Not unless they oppose the Christian Science healer.” “What do you mean by that?’ “When the other persons engage in act- ive persecution of the patient and the healer.’ “Can cancer be cured by Christian Science heaiers?’’ “It Can.”’ se smallpox be cured by the healers?” ae ean."* a consumption be cured?’ “It can.”’ “Can all diseases known to mankind be cured by Christian Science?’ “They can.’ “All diseases can be cured by Christian Science healers, dependent upon the pa- tient being in the proper condition of mind?’’ “Not altogether. They can succeed in all cases where the conditions are proper."’ “What conditions?’ “When there is divine love and a ro- nunciation from sin, from whiei all dis- ease arise,’’ responded Mrs. Holden. “How about surgical operations?” Law as to Surgical Cases. “There are Christian Science healers who _@o perform surgical operations. I have no personal knowledge of the subject.” ae ] G q SENATOR Briy Mason on ILtinvis ——————— ee , ae Gouge iter . reO ». ) 5, a i" . In opening the meeting George S.

Special te the Post-Dispatch INDIANAPOLIS, Ind., Dec. 15.—Not since the days when-Jesse James and his dare- devil comrades terrorized Missouri and lowa has gd picturesque and daring a des- perado defied justice as the supposed Mar- vin Kuhns, who is now in hiding some place in this section of Indiana. Fearless, . cool and desperate, he has faced a most certain death a score of times and stil re- mains the terror of country constables and police officers. Kuhns, who escaped from the Columbus, O.,° penitentiary Thanksgiving day, and shot a policeman, Benjamin Dean, during a two hours’ battle Monday, has a long record of crime... Before he was 18 hé had * served a term in prison for horse stealing and was wanted by officers of half a dozen northern counties. r The crime that led to his incarceration at Columbus was the murder of William Campau, at Fostoria, O., om Nov. 19, 1890. The body of Campau was found along the railroad and no one could identify it for several days, when a reward was offered for information. Kuhns walked into the coroner’s office, identified the body as that of his business partner, and claimed the reward. He had been seen with Campau the day before the murder and his actions aroused suspicion, but before he coud be arrested he had disappeared. He went to Fort Wayne that night. Later evidence deepened the suspicion of Kuhns, especially since he had money, and it was known that Campau had $1500 on his person the day before his murder. Immediately a warrant was issued for his arrest, but Kuhns escaped, and the Fostoria authorities, anxious to get him into custody, at once caused the publication of a large reward for his arrest. He may or may not have seen this publi- cation, but if he did it. did not deter him from visiting his old haunts, for in a few days he was at Churubusco, a little town in northern Indiana and near to the home of hi# parents in Noble County, where he contemplated going. On his way to Churu- busco he passed through Fort Wayne, spent several hours there and was seen and rec- ognized by several persons who knew him and knew of the reward that was offered for his capture, but he left before the of- ficers were apprised of his presence in the city. Deputy Sheriff Thomas Wilkinson and Po- lice Officer John Kennelly of Fort Wayne found Kuhns the next day on the streets of Churubusco. The effort to arrest him caused one of the bloodiest battles ever known in northern Indigna. Kuhns was accompanied by Jim Mease of Decatur and Town Marshal! Jackson was with the officers. Kuhns began shooting when he caught sight of the officers and the battle was on. When the smoke cleared away Kennelly was lying on the ground, with three bullets in his body, and a few feet away lay Mease, with a leg broken by a bullet. Wilkinson was struggling with Kuhns, who had four bullets in his body. but who. nevertheless, overpowered the of- ficer and jumped into a buggy and drove to his home, four miles‘away. There he suc- cumbed to his wounds and Sheriff Viberg end Deputy Wilkinson arrested him that night. They found him in bed and took him without resistance. Kuhns’ lift hung by a thread: for a long time, but he recovered, was taken to Tif- fin, tried and convicted. He escaped once before being taken. to the penitentiary by raisng his manacled hands and knocking his guard senseless, but was captured and taken to Columbus. Kuhns was for years the terror of the rural communities north of here. There were always a dozen or more indictments against him, but in the face of all he would walk the streets of Albion, Churubusco and other small towns with his guns in sight, and no officer would molest hm. At hom? he would sometimes be plowing in the field, with two orthree revolvers strapped to his waist, while rural officers would regar’ him from.a safe distance. His home-com- ing at the present time has brought con- sternat'on to the officers of the northern counties, and they would be glad to see h'm recaptured by some one else. Warden Darby of the Ohio penitentiary has notified the police of Northern Indiana cities that a reward of 1% is offered for the capture of Marvir. Kuhns, who escaped | from. the Ohic ‘prison. With Kuhns’ record of having k lled one man and crippled sev- eral officers who attempted to arrest him taken into consideration the reward does not prove at all tempting to the police. » The officers have proof that the escaped convict has lately been in h‘ding at the heme of his brother, Joseph Kuhns, in No>le County. but the reward for his arrest ‘s not sufficient to induce any of the office-s who are acquainted with Kuhns’ reckle s bravery and his record as a marksman to attempt his capture. It is said his brother made no secret of Marvin's return, who, it is said, fort'fied himself and sent word to the authorities that he was ready for them and would re- sist arrest to the death.

SYLVESTE The generous aid which the United States government tenders to the St. Louis Expos- ition deserves the gratitude of our citizens. The amount which St. Louis must raise by bonds and private subscription is $10,000,0vUv. Missouri will appropriate $1,000,000 for a state exhibit, As the sinking fund from which this grant will be paid is derived from taxes levied upon the property of the whole comonwealth, St. Louis contributes an important part. Its proportion jé about $400,000. Hence the World’s Fair will cost this city $10,400,000. The Congressional ap- propriation in aid of our exposition is $,- A Trial Package of Her Marvelous Home Treat- ment FREE for the Asking. Any true woman might well be proud to have saved one poor soul from the shackles of drink, but Mrs. Hawkins has redeemed thousands by her noble and practical work @mong those who have been victims of in- temperance. Mrs. Hawkins for years suf- fered the grief and anguish shared by so many true and faithful women of America today who have drink-afflicted fathers, hus- bands or sons, and seeing nothing but a life- time of misery for herself if something was not done, she determined to overcome this fearful evil if possible. Her search for a harmiess, perfect and secret home cure was at last rewarded when an old friend cameto her and gave her a remedy which had never been known to fail. Mrs. Hawkins gave the remedy secretly and in a few weeks, to her great joy, her dearest relative was entirely cured of his appetite for drink and was again restored to health and manhood. After this wonderful result Mrs. Hawkins decided to devote her life to the work of help- ing her sisters everywhere, whom she found suffering as she had suffered from the ef- | fects of alcohol upon a husband, father or | LLL RN ee lle a son. With the assistance of others she per- fected the original treatment and now offers to send this treatment free to any distressed wife, mother or sister who will write for it. Mrs. Hawkins’ great desire is that every woman who needs this medicine will write at once to her and get it. Mrs. Hawkins treasures hundreds of testi- monials received from thankful friends.

The care and superintend- ence of the national exhibits will cost the government.-not less than $60,000.

Usually a city has, without help, to pay for all the public benefits which it receives, but in this in- stance the liberality of Congress has given to our World’s Fair a sum more than one- nes as large as that which St. Louis itself raises.

It has been objected to the proposed Fair of 1908 that it too closely follows the _Chicago Fair of 1893. The objection has lit- tle weight. Millions of those who saw the wonders of the Columbian Exposition would be anxious ta tface the world’s progress In the last decade. The splendor of such sights seldom falls to interest the spectator. In- telligent observers would like to see every 'year the masterpieces of art and industry. But even upon the absurd assumption that none of the visitors to the Chicago Exposi- tion will come to the celebration of 1903, there would still remain the patronage of a vast population, Not one-half of the adult men and women of the United States at- tended the fair of 1893, and for them the at- tractiveness of 1998 would have ali the charms of novelty. Then, too, a later gen- eration has come forward. A lad of 10 was too voung to comprehend the meaning and excellence of the Chicago displays, but the same boy grown to a youth of 20 will be old enough to understand the Iinastruc- tions and appreciate the beauties of our St. Louis exhibits. In the decade between these two expositions, millions of boys and girls will reach maturity; and these young men and maidens, full of intelligent curios- ity and inspired with noble ambitions, will be great patrons and benefictaries of our St. Louls Fair. For the education and jliberalization of American youth tre Unit- ed States ought to have a Universa @ }xposi- tion every ten years. The gains derived from apparently un- important sources are often large. For more than six months the care of the Ex- position exhibits will require the services of several thousand men and women. Nearly all of these attendants will come from other parts of the United States and from for- + lands.

A Clear and Forceful Presentation Of Its Enormous Prospective Advantages to St. Louis and Its Territory. also increase the profits of the World’s Fair. But St. Louis will be still more large- ly benefited by the buildings which other states and nations will erect. These edifices will be, numerous and costly. Their con- struction will quicken the activity of every industry involved in architecture. The wages of the thousands of artisans engaged in this work would circulate in every branch of business and promote the commercial prosperity of St. Louis. As the benefits that will be derived from the erection of the World’s Fair buildings, from the presence af millions of visitors and from the higher excellence which the sight of the best pro- ducts of human skill will develop in every department of American industry have been discussed in previous articles, a pres- eut re-statement of these advantages is un- oecessary. The proposed Fair of 1903 has already at- tracted the attention of wealth. Through- out the United States moneyed men have been making inquiries about our Exposition and investigating the opportunities which this city presents for the investment of cap- ital. It is — robable that, when the holding of a World's Fair in 1908 becomes a certainty, millions of outside funds wil' be invested in St. Louls in the erection of hotels, storés, and manufactories, iff the purchase of feal estate’and the extension of transportation facilities. A universal] exposition is one of the pow- erful forces of modern civilization. In de- veloping industrial skill and natural re- sources, in promoting agriculture, commerce and manufactures, in attracting capital and immigration, in fostering public spirit and civic co-operation, in cultivating a taste for esthetc art and higher aspirations for excellence, in enlightening an broadening the public mind, and in Stregthening the obilgations and sincerity of international fellowship, a World's Fair is an effective factor. The increase of patronage is a public recognition of its attractions and use- fulnesg. The attendance at the Columbian Exposition was 27,000,000. The number of visitors to the recent Paris Fair was more than 50,000,000. The presence of so vast a host, far larger — the total population of France, not only attests a widespread efficiency as a means of advertisem Exhibits seen by 50,000,000 of people ebiate a world-wide publicity. St. Louis and eS as MAKE LIFE MISERABLE. It’s the Little Things That Do So. How frequently you hear people com- plain of “only a slight case of. piles,” often claiming that the trouble is merely temporary, induced by costiveness, or sedentary habits. It may be some satisfaction to console yourself in this way, but it is much better to check the trouble at once. You can’t do it too soon. In time these little rectal tumors will grow from the size of grape seed, until a knot of them results as large as pigeons eggs. These become inflamed and tender to the touch. and causing itching, stinging and throbbing pain. Thus the disease continues from bad to worse until the patient can bear the an- noyance no longer. The Pyramid Pile Cure is a perfectly safe and certain cure for piles in any of these stages. It goes to the very source of the trouble and drives out al! inflam. mation, causing the tumors to subside and the membranes to resume their nor- mal, healthy condition. - Piles lead to too many complications to trifle with every remedy that comes along. People have found it pays to use a stand- ard remedy tike the Pyramid Pile Cure, which for ten years has been tested in thousands of cases. _ Physicians use the Pyramid Pile Cure in preference to surgical operations, be- cause they know it contains no cocaine, morphine or us drug and because it is no longer an The Pyramid Pile Cure M4 in supposi- tory form to # used at night and causes no tion is painless interest in expositions, but also shows their Missourl ought to avail themselves of so powerful an instrumentality for making known to mankind the wealth of their re- =e and he excellence of their prod- The cordial’ co-operation of the United States government is a guarantee of suc- cess. Our chief magistrate,the secretaries of departments, and members of Congress, fully recognizing the historic significance of the purchase of Louisiana, will unite with the citizens of St. Louis in a common effort to make the Exposition of 1903 worthy of the great event whose one hundredth anniversary {t will com- memorate. Whatever assistance the pat- ronage of the government, the grant of a liberal appropriation, the friendliness of favorable seereration, and the loan of na- tional curiosities and objects illustrative of ‘the various branches of the public ser- vice can afford will be freely given.

SYLVESTER WATERHOUSE. WILHELMINA A TEETOTALER. Holland’s Queen Converts Her Intend- + ed to the Drinkless Habit. THE HAGUE, Dec. 15.—Whether it is from the natural desire to court royal favor, or whether royal example has had an hon- est effect, Queen Wilhelminia is rapidly converting her nation to temperance in the matter of drinking. It is well known that drink is one of the curses of Holland, and the Queen’s own father, her prennonsees on the throne, was accounted the champion royal drunkard of Europe. Agide from many courtiers, who have adopted her views the young Queen’s most notable convert'is her intended hus- band, Henry of Mecklenburg-Schwerin. This young man's action in eschewing liquor is & great surprise to his former regimental comrades, by whom he has been known as one of the most persistent drinkers in the one of puns officers. ueen Wilhelmina never touches any al- coholic Hquor.

Letters of congratulation and commenda- tion, testifying to the merits of Peruna as a ca- tarrh remedy, are pouring in from every state in the Union. Dr Hartman is re- ceiving hu n- dreds of such letters daily. All classes write these let- ters, from the highest to the lowest. Any man who wishes perfect health must be entirely free from catarrh. Catarrh is well- nigh universal; almost omnil- present. Peru- na is the only absolute safe- Suard known. A cold is the beginning of ca- tarrh. To pre- vent colds, to cure colds, is to cheat catarrh out of its victims. Peruna not only cures catarrh, but prevents it. Bernard King of the National Military Home, Leavenworth, Kan., also says: I will write you a few lines for publication to Mr. James Morrison, 68 E. 16th street, Paterson, N. J., says: “I have given Peruna a fair trial, and I find it to be just what you claim it to be. I cannot praise it too much. I have used two bottles in my family for colds, and evéry- thing imaginable. I could not be without it. I rec» ommended it to a married sister of mike who was al- ways troubled with colds.

I took a severe cold which I yeglected. “it developed into catarrh and bronchitis and in a short time became chronic. “I tried everything I saw advertised, which did me no good.

SS ———————— MOTORMAN HAUNTED BY DEAD. A Fugitive From 24 Manslaughte 3 Charge for Months. BRIDGEPORT, Conn. Dec. 15.—Georgeé S. Hamilton is coming home to be fried for manslaughter.

When Hamilton was admitted to $2000 ball, soon after the accident, he fled and forfeited his bond. It was understood that the com- pany bore the loss. Hamilton, acting under advice and bearing a letter to a mine-ownef in Denver, Col., went to that city and tried to get work, but failed. According to the story he has written to his friends at home many. About the time the last damage suit ad been settled with families of victims of the disaster, Hamilton says, his remittances from the company “eased.

NEW YORK, Dec.-15.—Mrs. Alice Rollins Crane, who is at the St. Denis Hotel, has given some of her experiences in the Klien- dike to the Post-Dispatch correspondent. Mrs. Crane former!ty lived in Washington, D. C., but ts a native of Virginia. Gen, John A. Rankins, chief of Gen. Grant's staff, was her cousin. in mines many of which she owns entire.

Mrs. Crane will soon publish a book on the Apache tribe of Indians, which ts founded on facts furnished by the chief on his @eathbed. To thé Post-Dispatch correspondent Mrs. Crane said: — “One of the things thn¢« seemed strange to me after reaching civilization was to be measured for a dress. lit also seemed very odd to pose for a photographer. I am not used to it. You see, when I am in my cabin home in West Dawson—please make a distinction between Dawson City and West Dawson—I wear bioomers; over them a buckskin skirt; please remember that my buckskin skirt has two rows of braid on the bottom. This skirt is made by Indians. | wear high boots made of moose skin. “In this habit | attend the chores about my cabin, entertain when there is any of the latter to do and go out in the same on ahy business 1 have at the camps or in the mines. ‘| wear over this sult my long seal coat. It cost $100 to have it made in Bos.on. Some of my women friends in the Staces think that seal is cheap in the Klondike, What mistaken creatures. But the women of the States have lots of queer Nnoltyw.s ‘about affairs in the Klondike. ‘There were 15,000 people in Dawson when I left there last July. Many of the men assured me that women constituted a large wa chk : ‘‘There is society, even in Dawson. Now there are but two things in the world for which a married woman should want to go to Dawson. One is for the love of her hus- band; the other is for money. “I know of very few women in the mines, but there are some. They vibrate between the mines and the dance hall. Sometimes they have to cook and wash or be cast out. There is one woman I recall who keeps a candy store and a cigar shop. There is an othér who is a butcher. Maybe they know What they went there for. “There are some churches. One cost $25,- 1 and another $5000. -There are some good women in the churches in Dawson. But no quéstions’ are asked, .Some of the women in the: learned #6 sing in other places, and some of them divide their singing. They sing for saint and sinner. “Some have an idea that women there wear buckskin skirts. On the contrary, the trains of the silk skirts of Dawson women stir up such a dust when the wearers walk out that the man who follows is apt to be blinded. There is an attempt by Dawson women to dazzle with dress. In the opening of the country a cargo of women went there in silks. From the day when the first wo- man in Dawson wore a silk dress, every woman has tried to outdo her. Not long ago a man who is a church mem- ber in Dawson arranged to return to the States. He went to the church in Dawson and said he would like to get a certificato of g00d standing, so as to show it when he returned. The clerk was instructed to issue thé certificate on the payment of $25. The clerk also insisted on btn 3 the money be- fore he let the certificate leave his hand. That incident, I think, shows the situation and the condition. “Our own government must send an able mah to represent our affairs. Then Ameri- can manhood will do the rest. IT am an American, but the Canadians on their side of the line do things much better than we do on ours. “Wonten in New York are far more for- tunate in the way of prices for dress than women of the Klondike. Any sort of a hat for a Woman costs in Dawson $75. I am hav- —-} some clothes made in New York and the — astound me because they are so much ow our prices. “A woman startled me today by saying in a very nice way that there was a rip in my waist.

We was certainly intolerant of dissembling, eva- to denounce any man on his side who was guilty of such.

He frankly Stated his ‘reasons. He differed with Bry- an on many things and he did not care to be in Congress out of harmony with a President of his political faith. At that very time he was an eloquent and consistent hater of President Cleveland and did not eare to occupy such an attitude through another Democratic administration. This address, to use a common expres- sion, paralyzed Bailey's constituents, who were for Bryan to the degre of frenzy. How many times he was called a feol and how many kinds of fool he was called are beyond estimate. Candidates sprang up all over the district and were making a hot fight for the nomination when Bailey got home. Mass meetings were held, however, and there was a — demand for him to recall his withdrawal and he finally did so and remained in public life. He had ho trouble whatever in winning the Texas Senatorship. It is expected that he will take high rank. Bailey, while 4 native of Mississippi, is of Pennsylvania extraction. It was an uncle. Joseph Welden of Philadelphia, now de- ceased, for whom Bailey was named, who educated him and started him in life. Senator Carmack of Tennessee. Another member of the lower house who will step into the Senate next March is E. W. Carmack of the Tennessee. an editor before he embarked in politics. In L886 he was an editorial writer on the Nash- vile American and two years founded the Nashville Democrat. The American and Democrat were subsequently consolidated and Carmack became editor- in-chief. In 1892jhe moved to Memphis and became editor gf the Commercial-Appeal. Four years later he was the regular Sano. cratic nominee for Congress in the Mem- phis district against Hon. Josiah Patter- son, gold Democrat, and defeated him bv a small majority. re would not be a candidate for Carmack entered the field. Gov. McMillin and Judge Snodgrass were also candidates, but Carmack beat } easily. Heis 4 years old, a man of fine at- pate for him a splendid career. acquisition of Culberson of Texas. Car- mack and possibly F. M. Simmons of North Carolina will greatly strength the southern senatorial contingent. Senator Dolliver Is a Virginian. A Roaqublican member of the House who will make his appearance in the Senate for the remaining session of the fifty-sixth Congress and for the new term which be- gins in March, is Jonathan P. Dolliver of lowa. Senator Gear, and his election by the legis- lature to fill the unexpired term as weii as the term to follow, its a foregone conclusion. Dolliver has been the eagle orator on the the most robust spellbinders of the tri hie is a handsome young fellow, with a fine voice and splendid mental powers. has an abdundance of personal magnetism, makes men like him by his never failing good humor, and is withal big hearted and gentie of nature.

Their task is to make the treaty American enough to get the two-thirds vote in the Senate and not so tremendously American that it /will be impossible to Great Britain. ' Jord Pauncefote does not think the / Davis amendment makes the treaty impos- sible to Great Britain and he is also of the opinion that there may be other amend- ‘ments, which, if cautiously framed, wili be |} accepted. | Senator Lodge said today that he thought ithe Sendte should not waste time but at- ftend strictly to the business of the session, | his angered Mr. Money, who said that ‘he did not object to Mr. Lodge requiring an agreement to vote, but he wouid not be ‘lectured by the senator from Massa- chusetts, Mr. Money and other, tors, he sard, desired to speak ‘on the treaty, and they would not be driven into undue haste. This outburst from Mr. Money had a de- pressing effect on the friends of the treaty, and Mr. Lodge moved to take up the Mex- tean boundary treaty, which prevailed. There is but little prospect now that the treaty will be ratified until after the holiday recess, The Senate transacted no business of im- ure or what | who treaty, sena portance today in open session, the entire | time being spent in exccutive session on the Hay-Pauncefote Peay | and amendmen's. Senator Hanna has faiied completely to} carry out his plar nae irding the ship subsidy bill. Congress has been in session two weeks and there have been but three speeches on it, those of Frye, Clay and Hanna. There is| no chance of a vote in the Senate before | Christmas and the opponents of the meas- ure have plans laid to keep the bill in tne background. A simple plan has been thought out. It involves the introduction of many amend- ments. Another danger is ghe brewers, who are very angry that they have been beaten in the House, and will demand of the Senate a decrease of the beer tax. They go so far to threaten they will defeat the Hay-Pauncefote treaty and the Nicaragua Canal bill, also, if they do not get the reduction they desire. The course of the subsidy bill @uring the last two weeks has been a bitter object lesson to Hanna, who cherished the idea that he was a Senate@Zeader. He has been shown that he is an ordinary Senator and he does not relish the knowledge. He will continue the fight for the bil, but the forces against him are sure to crush him. The real leaders of the Senate will not submit te his dictation. MANY AMENDMENTS OFFERED. Details of the Debate on the Treaty in the Senate. WASHINGTON, Dec. 15.—Senator Lodge, in charge of the Hay-Pauncefote treaty, today made another effort in the executive session of the Senate to get a day~-set for a final vote on the treaty and the amend- ‘ments to it which have been suggested by the various Senators and while he did net succeed, he received considerable encour- /agemen in that direction.. The proceedings today consisted of a brief speech by Sen- ator Teller, in which he suggested the substitution of the word ‘‘abrobate’’ for the word “supersede” in the first of the amend- /ments reported yesterday by the committee! on foreign relations, the effect being to declare the, Clayton-Bulwer treaty ab-| rogated in é€xpress terms. He then made} support of this suggestion, contending that any nation has a right to abrogate a treaty entered‘ into with an- other nation. He said that if the committee the old treaty ought to be abrogated, that word should be used: When Mr. Te ller cone | ‘cluded, Mr. Lodge contin ied his efforts to | get a time fixed for a vote. senator Morgan stated that if a time | named for a vote on the treaty, | would also insist that there should be} understanding that a vote be taken Nicar: ae canal question at the same | time.

Censure Passed Upon Messrs. Cobb, Harding and Gooch. WASHINGTON, Dec. 15.—Henry Ives Cobb, George Edward Harding and William Tason Gooch were virtually expelled from the American Institute of Architects at its session this morning. This action was taken in the adoption ofthe report of the committee composed of Frank Miles, W. Bundie and Ai:fred Stone, appointed to consider the report of the board of direc- tors. After providing that the secretary be instructed ta cast the ballot fer the election to honorary membership of R. Norman Shaw and Ernest George and to corresponding membership of Messrs. John Beichor, Paul Wallot, J. L. Pascal, Paul Suzor, J. M. Poupinel, Emil Bernard and Pillet, the committee recommended as Yollows: “Atier reciting that ‘the board of direct- ors, in view of the findings of fact presented in the cases of Henry Ives Cobb, George Edward Harding and William Tason Gooch, have found the parties guilty of unprofessional conduct and of conduct prejudicial to the best interests of the pro- fession, but have permitted them to remain fellows of the institute in good standing and in full enjoyment of all the privileges of membership,’ the committee recommended that it be resolved that ‘the continued mem- bership in the institute of persons adjudged guilty of unprofessionat conduct is re- Ppugnant to its members, and is an anomal- ous condition and that copies of the resolu- tions be sent to each member of the insti- tute.’ The alleged eRe Or Sar am ag arhittes Sm, ‘Rea rg) Fee hy aE Sone ig em ee Neat hero ’ Picuaa tf 8 rr eee, rm Peary # “A ae Toe pyre ie SrO6, | 'paid no attention and when the bill was WASHINGTON, Dec. 15.—The Senate and | ynally passed by a viva voce vote there House committees. on Judiciary have ‘were not 50 members in the chamber. reached an agreement to postpone consid- | The record made today stands at the eration of the pay bill for the amendment ort | head of the list: The pension bill is usual- *_ , | the bankruptcy law until the next Con- ‘ly rushed through, but never with the ra- ress, m e The bill was drawn on the recommenda- | Pidity that characterized its passage to- tion of the ag pee! tered gg of Deferees, | day. the members of which were present under | ‘ the terme of the bill. lt provides for de-|_-* Cousress should. continue to maintain fects in the law so far as they have come to | the record it made today in appropriating the surface, but they are now bankruptcy | money the following table shows the in- matters before the United States Supreme | calculable amount which could be dis- Court, the decision of which may make! posed of. necessary other amendments to those sug-| $10,900,008, 1_ minute, gested. $600,000,000, 1 hour. 4 ‘ Sag lei wi actell dagtinn elapse illeigg Saiba \ tee Pht “Dick’’ Marshall shot and fatally wound- ed Charles Lambert in Al Plack’s saloon at Ninth and Market streets at 6 o'clock last night.

Mr. Wilcox stated that the objections, which have been raised against him on the ground of his double marriage, were made under a misapprehension. He said his first marriage to Princess Stigliano had been an- nulled by the Pope before his second mar- ringe in Hawali, and that he had been in- formed that the Italian courts had also an- nulled the marriage. When he discovered, he said, that ths had not been done, he took the necessary action to secure a divorce. Mr. Wilcox declared that he was an Amer- ican citizen, and that the charges that he was a_ royalist were without foundation He had, he said, supported the former Queen of Hawall, but that now he, like all Other Hawalians, was an Amertcan citi- zen, It is not likely that the elections commit- tee will take action on the charges against Mr. Wilcox.

He did not understand ang asnxned Marshali what he had said. Marshall turned on Lambert, and without Saying another work drew a revoiver frum his pocket and stepping forward thrust the muzzel of the weapon in the young mans face and pressed the trigger. Voliceman Jerry Hickey was standing just ‘outside the door when the shot was fired. Hickey threw open the door and stepped the poiicemans arms. Policeman Hickey requested a citizen to call an am- bulance from the dispensary. This \was done and Hickey tnquired who had fired the shot. Plack told the officer and informed him that Marshall had stepped into a rear room, Hickey followed, and, as he opened the door, Marshall drew his revolver on the policeman and attempted shoot him. Hickey was quick and, seizing the weapon, wrested it from him before he had an op- portunity to press the trigger. Marshall struggled with Hickey, but he was soon conquered and taken to the City Dispen- sary, where he was identified by Lambert as the man who had shot him. At the City Hospital the doctors sald the ball had entered the jaw and iw.» pene- trated the skull and had lodged at ihe base of the brain. They considered the wound fatal. Lambert was conscious and stated he had never seen Marshall until last nigh: and that the shooting was without provo cation, When Marshal! reached the Four Courts Capt. Reynolds said that while he had been drinking, he was not drunk. He walked back to the holdover without any percept. able stagger.

Barr, novelist, says that dress influences “us, happily or otherwise, accarding to its quality and form. She explains that the present sameness in styles of dress ‘méans much more than fashion and vanity; it means the grinding to powder in the democratic mill of all signs and symbols of slavery, feudalism and man’s inequality.” These two propositions being granted, it follows that the sooner the democratic mill finishes its grinding and enables us to wear clothing to our individual tastes, the sooner we shall be happy. Many persons would gladly dispense with some of the garments now Worn as an expression of the democratic spirit. In the fall and spring, and on mild winter days, the man without a light overcoat is afraid to compromise on a Sweater, because the democratic spirit demands conformity or nothing. And city men who w ould Jike to wear caps, which will not blow off on windy days, run after their rolling derbies because of this feeling that the derby is demanded by democratic conventionalism.

Ravolet, who was a butcher three months ago killed a man his customers, over a discussion as to the, quality of his méat, then wounded with a shotgun three different officers who were trying to arrest him. He behaved meekly | in prison till carly one morning he over- powered, gagged and bound his keeper, | exchanged uniforms~ and coolly wa.ked out. | Although he had but 15 minutes’ start when the escape was discovered, the search was fruitless. A farmer returned = § the guard's uniform, he having been compelled to give Ravolet a civilian suit. The murderer has two brothers, also des- ‘ perate brawlers, who may have given him passage money.

A Theory of His Rise and Progress. The word “kicker” is no more slang, but an hororable term admitted by the ey ame to the round table of English speech. This acceptance of the wortl proves that there was a real need ~ for it; that a certain class of people had no word in the English language to fitly designate them. As a class these kickers must be as modern as the word which describes them. They are in ef- fect a new product of our latest civiliza- tion. The word which describes the kicker is picturesque. It Stig gests the mule whose kicking is usually done out of pure wantonness; which kicks in sea- son and out of season, at everything or at nothing as the case may be. The term kicker scarcely needs definition. We know exactly what it means, as well as we know the chronic fault-finder it designates. THE RISE OF THE KICKER. Any one who Cares to trace the rise of the kicker will find that he keeps pace with the prevalent American disease, dyspepsia. All kickers may not be dyspeptics, but all dyspeptics dre surely kickers. They are everlasting fault- finders. Nothing goes right for them in the family or in business. There is always a dead fly in their ointment. It is a miserable condition for the dys tic and his‘Triends. He really can’t belp himself. His nerves are strained to the limit of endurance. His ears are like megaphones magnifying every little sound to the shock of thunder. His eves lose sense of perspective and he sees mole-hills as mountains. He is suspicious, jealous, unreasonable and obstinate; and all these things are only symptoms of the disease which is starv- ing and weakening the entire nervous system and reaching out toward heart, liver, lungs, kidneys end other organs. WHAT CAN BE DONE FOR HIM? What can be done for the victim of dyspepsia? : He can be cured. He can be givena new startin life. He can be made the amiable, companionable man he was of old. He can once more eat with ap- petite and enjoyment, work with energy, and sleep the night through in sound, dreamless slumber. This is not a mere empty claim un- supported by facts. The statement that the dyspeptic can be cured is made on the authority of thousands of men and women, who have been entirely cured * of fi (Box writes: “*About twelve years suddenly taken with a pain inthe of the stomach which was so could not walk straight.

After a week during which the attractions were, in the main, farce comedy and comioe opera, a week of heavier plays has come to counteract the frolicsome effect of those in lighter vein. It is.a sort of shifting of the scenes from gay to grave, from lively to wevere. s At the Imperial the change, I opine, !{s go- ing to be a little too severe, for the ex- cellent stock company revives “Dr. Jekyil and Mr. Hyde,’ that grewsome horror which the wizard brain of Robert Louls Stevenson conceived in ai psychological nightmare. Just why the Imperial should put on this haunting study in the horrible I am unable to speculate, unless it is that the management desires to afford Mr. Lewis a .chance to show that he can be as good a good man as he is a villain. A couple of weeks ago he was tricked out as the lovelorn Romeo and ciearly looked the part of an actor who was doing something that left a bad taste in his mouth. In the Jekyll-Hyde double’ he will be both vil- lainous and virtuous, by turns, and if he @ucceeds in doing the lightning change with creditable fi ty to the art, as Ricn- ard Mansfield soli nes predecessors have Gone it, he will achieve a triumph not to be despised. I am giad to notice, however, that the Imperial company wil! not render the piece as ordinarily it is done, but will aiter the conclysion so as to make Dr. Jekyll wake up and realize that. the Dr. Hyde transfor- mation was all a dream. That will, In geome degree, relieve the impression madv upon the audience. The Century shifts from the frolicsome “Burgomaster’ to the classic character of Becky Sharp. Miss Gertrude Coghian makes her local debut in Thackeray's masterpiece, taking the leading roie in ‘Vanity Fair.’ J. H. Nevins has dramatized this version, which is heraided as a perfect fit for Miss Coghian. This young actress is a daughter of the! Jate Charies Coghian and a niece of Rose Coghlan. I explain her relationship lest some who read the bill boards, where she ig set forth as “Miss Coghian,” might get. the impression that it is the aunt instead) of the niece. I should not like to be taken | as hinting that Miss Gertrude or her man- ager deliberately seeks to borrow refiect- | ed glory by this ambiguous announcement | ef the star, but there are those who might | be led to think that way. The coming of | Gertrude Coghlan is an interesting event, for the Coghian name hav weight. The Castile Square singers at Music Hall offer us “Il Trovatore,”’ Verdi's Italian ' opera of imperishable charm.

Apropos of the retirement of Miss Maude Odell from the Imperia) Stock Company be- cause she declfhed to appear in an extra | performance without extra remuneration. [| may repeat a little taik which I heard re- cently from a young and pretty leading woman. She said: “They talk about. enaps tn stock com- panies Don't believe it. Don't let agy of There is néih.ng attached to it but expenses. You have got to furnish your wardrobe, which costs all the way from $500 to $2000. You are expected to dress in the lgtest styles. You must change your gowns every week. You may have a society play this week and a drama of the seventeenth century next. When you say you want a hundred a week the manager offers $40, and yet you wonder why sO many stock companies are in existence.” I have wondered often how stock com- pany stars can shine so brightly, itn so many changes of costume, and with re- hearsals so frequent and line-learning so laborious that they scarcely have time left to write letters home complaining of the low salaries they get. A woman who can Siand the strain of the work and the ex- pense of the gowning, on a hundred or s0 a week, must be a marvel. The gay Bostonians give way at the Olympic to Victorien Sardou, whose ‘“T beo- dora’’ will be produced by Mrs, Clarence M. Brune, Clarence M. Brune, Melbourne Mac- Dowell, John Sturgeon and others stage foik of note. Sardou's play is said to be a rev- elation of the fitting of heroic-situations to a theater stage. Its sub-titie is ‘“‘Her Last Race.” That explains much, but when it ts explained further that Mrs. Brune does a bareback riding feat, In a standing position on two horses, one may expect something out of the ordinary—for the stage. ——ee mines {n their batk yards. girl of that part of the state, while dif-| week ' ferent In some respects from the St. Louis} action, brought to recover a certain sum al- | Missouri girl, is just as sweet and charming | leged to be due as commission on profita It is said that! while he managed Miss Nethersole, The Missouri when you come to know her. manbecame a to Wwe accurately | ve is & > . ’ a a >. = » j %, po a a aie Ree ERE ENA ESO OE TED tn es TT a ge PN ae considerable surprise at the talk _ Theater attractions while the latter — is arising from its ashes.

Hack- | ett and his fascinating wife, Mary Man- nering, should have each become indepen- dent stars so comparatively early in their | | Hackett | at Jl starring in ‘“‘The Pride of Jennico.” an | unquestioned success of the most tremen- | respective careers. Here is Mr. dous proportions, while his wife, starring in “Janice Meredith,” is achieving a series of hits equal to her husband's, and she is but 24 by actual count. A good-natured rivalry exists between them, and in their corre- spondence they eagerly compare notes as to the respective receipts. When one beats the other, as is, of course, the case each | week, any feeling of personal] disappoint- ment is more than counterbalanced by the Sratification of knowing that the victor, for the time being, is the husband or the wife, as the case may be. The success of Wilson Barrett's problem play, “Man and His Makers,” and of his superb production of “Quo Vadis,” may cause the English actor to postpone a tour of this country next season which has been considered by him. Richard Savage, the poet whom Madeline Lucette Ryley has taken as the central fig- ure of her new play, in which Mr. Miller is to appear soon, was the contemporary of Dr. Johnson, Addison, Richard Steele, Al- exander Pope, Colley Cibber and other lit- erary celebrities, each of whom are more familiar in the minds of the reading pub- lic than is Richard Savage. It was not, however, his literary fame, but his intensely dramatic career and his personal charac- teristics which engaged the attention of the fair dramatist. The bitter fight which Savage waged against destiny was fore- shadowed by pre-natal events. His mother was Lady Macclesfield, a fashionable wo- man of the period, but as Richard Savage's blographer, Mr. Johnson, tells us, she was by no means an ornament to her sex. De- siring a divorce from her husband, she openly confessed that her child about to be born was not his, but that of her paramour, the Earl Rivers, a confession which, of course, secured the divorce. To add to her heartless effrontery she wave her child, la- ter to be known as Richard Savage, to the | care of others, and throughout his life re- fused to recognize him as her own. Della Fox, who ts achieving a notable suc- cess In the ‘“‘continuous,”’ {s soon to return | to musical comedy.

Stee playwright and has written a three-act Spanish drama, bordering between romance and tragedy, but she declares that it will never be acted. She wrote it purely for her own amusement, and she is going to let it end there. Miss Otis is usually considered merely as an actress and a wonderfully successful one at that, but before she went on the stage she was one of the best-known journalists in | New York City. Jennie Willlamson, known on the stage as Ruby Jerome, a member of the Dewey Theater Extravaganza Company, was mar- ried on her death-bed on Dec. 3, In a hos- pital at Cincinnati, O., to John Burke, of the Burke Brothers, with The Ramblers com-| pany. petitonitis, and when it became necessary to perform an operation Burke came back from Indianapolis, and the ceremony was) performed by Rev, Hugo Elsenlohr.

Therefore, on Monday afternoon she will tak uurvantage i Surance Or! saute ti <A conduct, which its significant, in the light of recent attempts mide by her to abduct the_ child whom she has not seen for seven ‘ears. : The meeting is certain to nresent dramatic contrasts.

All of the parties to the dispute intend to talk over the strange tangle of the child's | life. in which they have become volved through the humanitarian interfe @ e of Mrs. Harris, a former police matr who hocame enoucrh interested in the chi'd to give her to the O’Laughlins without the Knowledge or consent of her mother. Mr. O'Laughlin has said that he is pre-| part with kindness and due appreciation of Mrs. Welshimer’s tn- ctiret as a mother. if his efforts are met in the same spirit of fairplay. himer says she cannot affected at this reunion but she has come into pared to act his with her child a state of mind upon which she is sure she can rely to ad- | just the controversy with reason and per- fect imnmartialtity. Meantime Attorney Broadhead, acting for Mrs. Welshimer at Clayton, where legal! proceedings ure to be instituted, the restitution of Maud Thomes to her mother, will not be hindered by the other negotiations. Nor are the preparations, on the part of O’Lauehlin tn the same court, for retention of his adopted daughter to suffer any check. In the event that no understanding is reached between the parent and foster par- ents the case will be heard probably some time during the present week. Attorney Broadhead, who Is acting for Attorney Robert Crabb of St. Louis, repre- senting Mrs. Welshimer. intends to revive the divorce suit by which his client secured, six years ago a legal separation from David Thomas, now residing in Pueblo, Colo. Thomas ts the father of the 10-year- old girl, who is the ‘ssue in dispute, but he has no part in the affair, since the custody of little Maud was awarded to his wife. The court will be invoked to remand Maud | Thomas to the keeping of her mother. under its decree, and a motion will be made that th's ruling be sustained on the representa- tions that the child was unlawfullv given into the custodv of the O'Laughlins by "pe sons urauthorized to do so. The defense expects to introduce papers, conveying Maud Thomas to John O’Laugh- lin on the grounds that the girl, who has now been proclaimed the heir of her g-and- mother, Mrs. Margaret Hvghes of Chelten- ham, was deserted by her mother. The papers are said to bear the signature of a chartered orphan institution. SHITH AND DAY WILL COMPETE St. Louis Will Be Well Represented at the Billiard Tournament in February. J.

Smith made a remarkable record last yea In the Cass B tournament he finished sec- ond to Threshie with a fairiy good a. erage. Then he entered the Class A tournament, and, although he competed with such great piavers as Foss, Mullen and McCreery, he finished the tournament with an average better than seven. Smith !s very young. and when It {s taken | into consideration that he was competing with old and experienced players this av- erage is remarkable. Smith commenced practice at the Broad- | Wavy vesterday and will continue to give some time each day to the game untill the time for the tournament arrives.

The college absolutely guarantees that anyone can learn these sciences in a few days at home, and use the power without the knowledge of his most intimate friends.

Several hundred were offered, from which the reporter selected 84 The replies re- ceived were more than sufficient to convince the most skeptical in regard to the wonder- ful benefits to be derived from this mighty power. There were absolutely no failures. All had learned to make practical use of the aciences. The following extracts are taken at random from the letters, for the benefit of readers: J.. H. Schneller, 1412 | Avon street, La Crosse, Wis., writes: ‘‘Hypnotism truly reveals the se- crefs of life and the mysteries of nature. My own father coluld not have convinced me of its wonder- ful power if I had not actually tested it for my- self. .I consider a knowledge of it invaluable to those who wish to get the most out of life, to those who wish to achieve success and live up to the full measure of their possibilitics.’’ Mrs. Effie M. Watson, Martinsville, Ind., writes: “Hypnotism opens the road to health, happiness and prosperity. It should be studied by every one. i would not part with my knowledge of it for any amount. The instructions have developed within ge a force of character, an ability to influence and control people that 1 did not dream 1 could ac- gquire,’’ J. W. Clinger, M.

BURNED A GENERAL STORE ALSO BLEW OPEN THE SAFE AND SECURED $100. After Committing Other Outrages They Escaped on a Handcar and Were Pursued by Bloodhounds, but Not Captured. A party of five tramps stirred up the little city of Brighton, IIL, early yesterday tn a most unpleasant manner and in several places left traces of their visit. The town marshal was seized by the | tramps, the bank broken into and the chief | general store of the town looted and then | nred, After these several acts of lawlessness these wild characters left the town on a handcar and were traced with blood- hounds so far as Upper Alton where they were lost track of. It is the custom tn Brighton during the winter to allow any tramps that ask for lodging a cell tn the calaboose. This cus- tom was directly responsible for the acts of lawlessness witnessed about 1 o’clock yes- terday morning. Marshal George Cavanaugh was aroused at a late hour and asked to give three tramps a lodging tn the calaboose He took them to the building and unlocking a cell, told them to go tn. When he turned he looked into the muzziesof five revolvers. ae three having been joined by two oth- Cavanaugh was shoved tnto the cell and the door locked on him.

Butler. This they entered and blew the safe, securing about $100. The robbers left a Mghted fuse near the safe, and this, rolling into some coal, caused a conflagration, the store being al- most entirely destroyed. The loss to stock and property ts estimated at $2000. H. A. Bloemer, proprietor of the Brighton Telephone Exchange, going to his office about 5 o'clock in the morning, saw the fire at the Butler store, and, after sound- ing the alarm, proceeded to hunt for the marsha}. He was found locked tn the calaboose. After being ‘released Kavanaugh got two young bloodhounds from Julius Schmidt. | and, with a hastily formed posse, started | after the thieves and firebugs. | hey escaped on a handcar which was found at the Upper Alton station of the Burlington. All trace of the fugitives was here lost and after tlephoning to the surrounding towns he returned to Brighton. Marshal Cavanaugh is sure that he can identify three of the tramps.

SS —— oe AMERICAN GIRL +t+eor++oooeoeoeoeoeoeoeo soe The Baroness Von Ketteler, Who Was Maud Cass Ledyard of Detroit and Whose Husband Was Killed by Boxers in Pekin, to Be Elevated to a Post of Almost Regal Magnificence—She Will Control the Wardrobe of the Empress, Arrange Presentations at Court and Be a Member of the Royal Household at Home or Upon Its Travels. By HELOISE, Countess D’Alemcourt. BERLIN, Dec. 8. Special Correspondence of the Sunday Post-Dispatch. IR MAUD CASS LEDYARD, the American girl who became the Baroness von Ketteler and whose husband was killed by the Boxers in Pekin, Emperor William has reserved an unusual honor. The former belle of Detroit, whose romantic marriage had so soon and -sad an ending, is to be made the arbiter of the German court when, in obedience to the im- perial invitation, she reaches Berlin. It has been stated that Emperor William would make her lady-in-waiting to the Empress, but that is a mistake. The title of lady-in-waiting, or hofdame, would hardly suit the baroness’ present rank, for she is already styled “ambassadress” and “excellency,” and as Baron Ketteler died at his post his rank and title belong to his widow for life. As a matter of fact, the Kaiser has resolved to revive for the former Miss Maud Cass Ledyard the post of mistress of the robe. This office has long been extinct, and the old nobility, which maintains that “born” ladies of title alone have claim to it, are raising heaven and earth to prevent the slight to their dignity. pr 46 A “mere American,” “a woman whose father is in trade,” have precedence over ancient sovereign houses! Unter deu Linden. Pariser Platz, the whole west end of Berlin is going into hysterics. But Kaiser Wilhelm is resolved to give Baroness von Ketteler royal proof of his esteem for her and for her late husband. If the latter had lived his majesty would have made him a count—hence it is probable that he will confer that dignity on the American girl if he has personal assurances that it will be accepted. ” | The position of mistress of the robe carries with it the title of “excellency.”” One of the reasons why it fell into disuse was the desire to avoid friction with the Em- press’ grand mistress. Countess Brockdorff, who rejoices in that appellation. As Baroness von Ketteler is already styled “excellency,” rivalry between the ladies on that account is not feared. The Empress is said to be delighted with the addition to her suite. which will in the future be on the same footing as that of Queen Victoria. Queen Victoria’s mis- tress of the robes is the Duchess of Buccleuch, who combines with the office that of grad mistress. Baroness von Ketteler will be co-ordinate with Countess Brockdorff, who now decides questions of etiquette at court and as represenative of the Empress dictates its social policy. She will outrank all other ladies at court except those of the blood royal, Countess Buelow, wife of the imperial chancellor, and Mme. de Brockdorff. This will be heard on Countess Keller, upon whom her majesty conferred the title of dame du palais only a little time ago. Fraulein von Gersdorff and Countess Armgard von Stollberg, both styled lady- in-waiting, make up the rest of the Empress’ titled retinue. Countess Brockdorff, nee Baroness Loen, a woman of 58, is of distinguished ap- pearance, Countess Keller is 10 years younger and more noted for her agreeable character than for good looks. Fraulein von Gensdorff won't see 40 again and the Kaiser never tires making fun of her embonpoint. Countess Armgard alone has the prettiness of youth—born in 1877. She is the youngest hofdame ever employed in her majesty’s service. You can understand, then, why Berlin is now admiring the portrait of Baroness von Ketteler exhibited in the show windows of all the fashionable stores. In the Kaiser's suite Count Perponcher holds the post corresponding to that intended for Baroness Ketteler, he being master of the wardrobe. But while his posi- tion is largely ornamental, an Emperor's wardrobe, consisting n wadays principally of uniforms for which there ‘are distinct regulations, the duties of the mistress of the robe are many. If Baroness von Ketteler takes up her residence in Germany an apartment of four parlors, besides bedrooms, wardrobe room and servants’ quarters, will be set aside for her in Berlin, Potsdam, Casse] and Wiesbaden, or wherever the court nay be for any length of time. The apartments at the Berlin Schloss and Potsdam Neues Palaise intended for her use are second only to those occupied by the Emperor and Empress. A royal chasseur will be on watch in the first ante-chamber night and day to attend to call- ers; messages are delivered to her excellency by her secretary, who occupies the second ante-chamber. These persons and the other servants, namely, coachman and groom, two tootmen and as many maids, are paid by the royal exchequer. Six carriage horses are at her ladyship’s disposal, besides saddle horses from the Empress’ stable. The mistress of the robe is entitled to a gala coach and four on state occasions, and her coachman and groom wear the imperial livery—leather breeches and high boots, black coat, festooned with black eagles on red and silver ground, with silver cords and tassels across the breast, and a silk hat with silver lace and cockade. The salary of the mistregs is 30,000 marks per year, besides per juisites. The latter include, beside lodging, servants, etc., as set forth, medical attendance free of charge and board for the incumbent and her private servants. On all journeys the mistress of the robe takes her place in the imperial palace car, and when she travels alone she is paid general field marshal’s milage. The mistress of the robe is entitled to a place at the royal table, but usually takes only luncheon, dinner and supper with their majesties, for, the Kaiser being an early riser, breakfast is an informal affair. At table her excellency sits at the side of a prince, ambassador or officer who holds at the least lieutenant-general’s rank. She might prefer to talk to some great artist or scienific man, but that wouldn’t do. If the Empress is not present at table the mistress of the robe gives the sign to rise, conforming, of course, to the Kaiser’s wishes. Naturally the mistress of the robe sets the fashion for the other court ladies;al! go to dinner and supper in grand toilct, even if the repast be set for 4 o'clock in the ait- ernoon. Grand toilet means a long-trained silk gown, cut very low.in the neck, rich jewels and elaborate bead dress. As ancient court superstition talooes dar’. colors, except for mourning and hali-mourning, the ladies wear light dresses only; but in view of the fact that the mistress of the robe is usually an elderly woman, the in- cumbent is permitted to wear darker shades of violet occasionally, Where an American woman is concerned dress sinks ino insignificance by the side of the table regulations. While the Kaiser is not an excessive drinker, he presses liquors on his official family and guests. Madeira, port and sherry are set before AS MISTRESS OF QUEEN’S WARDROBE, TO B eet SOCIAL RULER A KAISER WILHELM’S —_— eee — _ - — - — " COURT ’ ’ Pus oe? or tao . ta * ae? at ate? ? *n? ae 7a’ ate ie ee ele ? a'a’s’s'a ORO ROO R ORCC HOR OR OHO dE [a em ale ee 32.8.

Then comes the French champagne, Heidsic Royal, while with the dessert old Tokay and Muscat Lunel are drunk. All this in one hour! Of course no one at table is actually compelled to drink all these wines, but no one can help making a show of doing so. The beauty and youth of Baroness von Ketteler will show best on state occa- sions, when the Kaiser revives the splendor of past ages. One of the reminders of old davs is the “great entry.” After the guests of their majesties, sometimes from 5000 to 6000 in number, assemble in the brilliantly lit halls, the imperial couple enters, preceded by heralds, great dignitaries of the crown, swarms of courtiers, high officers and pages. At the head of the procession walk heralds in medieval dress, playing on an- cient silver bugles draped with cloth of gold. The court marshals, carrying gold- knobbed ivory staffs, follow, then the lord-guardians of the regalia, the grand chamberlain, Duke of Ujest, who bears the crown on a purple cushion; the Prince of Hatzfeldt with the orb of the realm, and Prince Ploss, sword-bearer. Now an interval of some half minute, and a platoon of pages, good-looking bovs in scarlet coats with silver lace, white silk stockings and toy swords, announce the Emperor and [mpress. Since even kings_no longer balance crowns on their locks, the Kaiser has on a modest silver helmet, topped by an eagle without spread wings, but his Queen is re- splendent with a diadem of precious stones, having the great “Regent” in the center, And while the chancellor walks at William's side the mistress of the robe attends the Empress. | That is her excellency’s opportunity. From the back of her powdered hair hangs the “mantilla,” mark of her office, It is a black lace shaw! of exquisite work- It falls to the bottom of the skirt, ending where It is. however, not borne by pages manship, held by big diamond pins. the mantle begins. The latter is five yards long. like the more ponderous affair, 11 yards in length, worn by the Iempress. 3 After Their Majesties are seated on the throne the mistress of the robe occupies a conspicuous position directly opposite he Empress, so as to introduce to her the ladies “commanded” for presentation. 3 But whether all the noble dames on the list be admitted is left entirely to the discretion of the mistress of the robe. The lists are made up weeks beforehand, and ‘n the meanwhile a thousand things may have happened—things of the kind the mis- tress learns from the political police. Hence sometimes her majesty whispers to the mistress of , a lady to be summoned which thaf functionary can not pass on to the chamberlains, and as there is no chance for explanation the Empress sometimes sees her orders the robe the name of disregarded without knowing why. | This indicates the power of a mistress of the robe and the great confidence im- posed in her. : If some of the great ladies over whom the American baroness will hold sway should take exception to her appointment, Mme. von Ketteler may point out that her name is as good as any in the empire. The Kettelers exercised royal power for over 200 years. Gotthard III. von Ketteler beeame Duke of Courland and Semi- gallia in 1561, and he and his successors ruled until 1/3¢, when Empress Anna of Russia compelled their subjects to elect her favorite, Biron, as their prince. Until recently the Duchess of Courland was a leading figure at the Berlin court, but her family ‘was recognized by Prussia only in 1854, while the Kettelers figure in history since the eleventh century. , Among the functions of the mistress of the robe that of fastening the crown on her majesty’s head is perhaps th most envied. The crown and regalia belongs to the people and the treasury holds the mistress of the robe responsible. : lt a diamond, pearl or other jewel is lost it must be replaced. The regalia is examined before use and pieces having loosé or insecure stones are sent back by the mistress. Baroness von Ketteler will be the Kaiserin’s chief adviser in dress. His Majesty concerns himself with every detail of his vast household and has decided opinions on women’s apparel. He often quarrels with Countess Brockdorff about selections, telling her of tasteful toilets he sees worn by American and English ladies. So the grand mistress will probably be glad of the chance to shift this responsibility, par- ticularly as her American colleague will make no claim to one of the perquisites of the office, Her Majesty's cast-off dresses. As it comes from the shop, the Em- press wears a dress only once; for a second appearance it is altered. After that the mistress of the robe or the grand mistress may have it for her own use or to sell. is alone, and she neither pays One of the hofdamen accompanies’ Her Majesty These ladies also suffice The Empress never goes. out alone; she never nor receives visits unattended on ordinary occasions. when Her Majesty calls on her sis- ters, cousins and aunts, or when they come to the palace to see her; but the mis- tress of the robe or the grand mistress must be on hand on all occasions of state or Semi-state At the reception of delegations the mistress of the robe stands at the foot of the throne to conduct the exchange of courtesies. If Her Majesty has to make answer to some address, the mistress of the robe writes her speech beforehand, and if Her | Majesty is unwilling to receive other officials or private visitors the mistress of the robe takes her place. herself had spoken. Whether a request f or audience is granted depends upon the mustress of the robe and the grand mistress. Baroness von Ketteler will play a leading part in charities. She will identify herself with the church-building movement so dear to the heart of the Empress with the German brdnch of the Y. M. C. A. and the Working Women’s Protective League. ; The mistress of the robe may use the royal boxes at the opera and theatres, she has the entry there whether Her Majesty be of the party or not, while the other ladies must be content with a seat. in the The Kaiser and Kaiserin learned with much gratification that Mme. von Ketteler is a fine musician. have plenty of opportunity to be heard, particularly as Countess Bertha von Basse- witz, who used to delight the court by lier excellent piano playing, got married and retired. The Empress will confer upon the wife of the murdered ambassador the Order of Louise, of which she is graftd mistress.

Grace before meat is omitted at the club, The reason for this apparent breach of-a pious custom, according to the members of the club, is found in the system by which all the eatables are placed on the tables in large common dishes. Human nature is no- where more impatient of conventional re- straints than in a hungry student, and those who devoutly closed their eyes to await an invocation before each meal! might open them to find that some irreverent com- panion had loaded his plate with the chol- cest of the food offered. Regular business meetings of the mem- bers, with compulsory attendance, are held weekly to receive the reports of the offi- cers. Of these the most i@pportant are the commisssary and the treasurer. The com- missary, as disbursing agent of the club, must meet all complaints as to the quality of food furnished. Under the administration of John Bowman, the present commis- sary, complaints have been few, as tha ways of Columbia grocers are an open book to him.

This is possible from the fact that the dormitories are furnished by the state of Missouri, which does not undertake to make money out of its students. At the beginning of the school year each student pays from $12 toe $20 for his room for the year. The rooms are lighted and heated at state expense, and a laundry is run in con- nection with the club houses in which the prevailing prices are one-half of those charged by the Chinaman who sprinkles shirts and collars through his teeth a few blocks away. The latest phase which the club has as- sumed is that of a factor in college politics. At a recent athletic election it stood be- tween “Greeks” and “Barbs,’’ both of which classes are represented at its .ables, and elected its own ticket. The ever-increasing membership of the club speaks volumes for the success of the principle of student management of board- ing houses, and its popularity insures it a place in the future traditions of the unl- versity like that now held by “Old Nassau” in the hearts of Princeton men, or by the ould Ee 7? am er nl —* : - RUISER StlLouis, Ss ——_ = WASHINGTON, Dec. 13. Special Correspondence of the Sunday Post-Dispatch. INCE the beginning of the “new navy’’ S the United States has steadily ad- vanced in warship construction, un- til at present she is recognized as one of the great naval powers. Instead of the United States following in the wake of for- eign nations those nations now seek and follow American ideas. The size of the United States navy has mot increased in the samé proportion as those of the other powers, but in design, mraterial, equipment and efficiency it is the equal, if not the superior, of any navy in the world. This result is due largely to the ability and energy of Rear Admiral Philip Hichborn, chief constructor of the navy and chief of the bureau of construction ani repair. When the “new navy" was in its infancy, and some time before he was ap- pointed to this arduous position, his coun- gel and advice were sought, and his thor- ough knowledge of the requirements for paval vessels is plainly proved in the de- signs of some of the early warships. The latest products are the 14 vessels for which bids will be opened within three months, consisting of five battleships of about 16,0060 tons displacement, six armored cruisers of about 15.000 tons and the three protected cruisers o” about 10,000 tons. The protected cruisers, named the 8&t. Louis, Milwaukee-and Charleston (the lat- ter to continue the name of the 3700 ton vessel wrecked Nov. 2, 1899, off Kamiguin Island, in the Philippine group) are the most formidable of their class in the world. In fact, so close do they approach the type of second-class armored cruisers that they might easily be mistaken for such. In an engagement they would prove themselves a match for some of the armored cruisers of other navies. #& comparison of their principal data~ with that of the British Monmouth class will demonstrate thelr value: ’ UNITEI: STATES.

It is annéunced upon government author- ity that not less than four thousand Chinese Coole immigrants are being smuggled into the country every year and that there cre in New York City ‘alone six Chinese secret societies engaged in this illegal work. These societies are managed by wealthy and crafty Celestials, who cause to be printed in China advertisements offering to get any Chinaman into the United States despite the exclusion act if he will pay the society a certain sum of money. In case the appll- cant is not able to pay the full amount when he is brought in, he is compelled ¢o give a blood oath that hie will be bound to the so- clety and pay it money at regular intervals after reaching the United States. He !s sup- posed to find employment or go into busl- ness immediately upon arrival, and the s0- clety sleuths see to it that he discharges his obligation. These 4000 Chinamen are not, of course, brought into the country in a clash with the officials whose duty it is to see that the Chinese are excluded. But the exclusion act, like a poor farmer’s fence, is not pig- tight. The Chinese are shrewd enough to have found holes in it, and in this they are aided and abetted by many white men. There is no prescribed penalty for the man who assists a Chinaman to violate the ex- clusion laws, and the absence of such a clause in the national law emboldens many persons to “ngage in the business without fear. The majority of the Chinese who are smuggled into the country now are brought over from Hong Kong via the Canadian Pacific Steamship Co. and landed at Van- couver, when they are loaded upon Cana- dian Pacific trains and taken to Montre- al. The nearest point of attack from Mon- treal is at Malone, a little city in the northwest portion of New York. Here the Chinese cross the border in great num- bers, and the sheriff of Franklin County, where the crossings are made, is kept busy catching Chinamen and locking them up in the Malone jail. He seldom has less than 100 Chinamen in jail there await- ing trial, and has often many more. In the case of Wong-Kim-Ark, in 1897, the United States Supreme Court ruled that Chinese born in the United States prior to 1889 and afterward returning to China, could not be refused admission to this country if they sought to return. This de- cision gave the smugglers an opening. They reasoned that ft would only be neces- sary for the imported Chinaman to make affidavit that he was born in the United States and afterward returned to China, producing two witnesses In substantiation. This is now the plea of every defendant arraigned at Malone. He swears he was born in San Francisco prior to 1880 and aft- erward returned to China, and he produces two other Chinamen from the United States who swear the defendant is their brother, cousin or relative in some wise and that they know him to have been born in San Francisco. This is a claim which the attorneys for the government find It hard to refute, for no record of Chinese births was kept in San, Francisco prior to 1880. The absurdity of the wholesale claim that San Francisco is }the birthplace of the thousands of app&cants is shown, however, by the statistical proof that prior to 1890 there were not more than four thousana Chinese women in California and that nine-tenths of these were prostitutes. The government officials find it expen- sive business fighting these imposters of Chinese, and they insist that the annual appropriation of $100,000 for this purpose is wholly inadequate. It costs $40.80 to take a witness from New York to Malone to prove a single point for the government and $35.50 to take a witness from Boston and produce him in court for one day. These witnesses could not be secured at all until the government convinced the Chinese that it would protect anyone giving evi- dence in its behalf. Chinese, of course, know each other well enough to know when there is perjury to smug- gle a Chinaman tn, but very few of them have courage enough to tell what they know. The Chinese smuggling business brings prosperity to Malone. All the Chinamen arrested there have funds and spend money cations have been embodied in the design for the vessel.

On the gun deck the greater portion of the battery is located, cansist- ing of eight 6-inch rapid-fire guns, twelve l4-pounder rapid-fire guns, and fobr 1- pounder rapid-fire guns.

The Chinese make Malone the American end of thelr smiig- giing route because it is the nearest point to New York City along the Canadian Fa- cific Ratlway, which brings them from Van- couver. In the event that a Chinaman is deported by the courts the steamship company which brought him over is compelled to take him back to China, but the Canadian Facifie people escape this by ciaimirg that the Chi- nese buy tickets to Montreal, in Bri(fish territory.

The provision was enacted for the purpose of excluding the un- desirable coolle class, not merchants, tqur- ists, students or others who might not only we no detriment to the community, but a bene- | fit. The first violations were principally by the alleged retiring merchant classes, by means of fraudulent papers, attested by two white witnesses, who were generally bribed for a pittance to back up the Chinamen’s statements, Investigations into these cases, and a thorough revision of methods, caused them to fall off 80 per cent. The invasion of this country by Chinese coolles entering from the territory of our northern neighbor has become so serfous that it may be necessary to close the Cana- dian ports altogether in order to force the Chinese to make application for admission at San Francisco, Portland or some other seaport where the collector of customs has final jurisdiction. When, by the act of 1894, Congress declared that the decision of the collector of customs as to the right of a Chinaman to enter the United States should be final, the effect of that legislation was to give the collector practically the power to deport such of the undesirable ‘mmigrants 45 were not entitled under the laws and the treaty to admission tnto the United States. When a collector on the border decides that a Chinese apovlicant {ts not entitled te admission into the country th Chinaman returns to Canada. In the course of a week or a month he ts either smuggled over the border or walks across abd {s tried before the United States commissioner upon some ground or other. Steamship companies Jand- ing their immigrants at San Francisco, New York or other United States port must, tn the event of rejection, take the immigrant back to the country whence he came. While the Canadian Pacific Transportation Co. loads the Chinese at Hong Kong for United States points upon some kind of evidence as to thelr right to enter the United States, it does not bring them actually into United States territory, but bears them by train usually to the station in Canada nearest the border. There they are unloaded, and the company at the same time unloads all responsibility for the return of the China- men in case the !tmmigrants are not per- mitted to enter the United States, All coat of the trials and deportations incurred ty the government in consequence of cases arising upon the Canadian border could be avoided by closing these Canadian ports of entry and throwing the matter back inte the jurisdiction of the seaport collectors, It is thought that a bill, with some ad- ditional features, the necessity of which has become apparent during recent experiences, will be passed by the present Congress. If this is accomplished—as, in the interest of all law-abiding American citizens it should be—the efficient enforcement of the act pro- viding for the exclusion of a most undesir- able element from our community wilil be assured.

HE trouble with smuggled Chinese does it not often reach us this far in the tIn- terior, though it is a fact that the preseni exclusion act is not keeping the Chi- namen out. We have deported eight, I think, from St. Louls since the exclusion act became effective, and I have had some experience with the people who do the smuggling. I remember one case in which a Chinaman came to me in behatt of a friend. He said that his friend had been tn business in. St. Louis, and had returned to China on @ visit. I went myself to see the firm tn which the suspected Chinaman was said to have ® thousand-dollar investment.

PORTRAIT must be a likeness. A great many people think a likeness merely consists in the form of the face. Take a photcgraph. the cast of the features.

It is the sentiment bac of it that makes it interesting to the out- sider as well to the subject and friends. Take Rembrandt's portraits in the Louvre. We don't know the person whom they rep- resent, yet we are interested in them. That's the difference between a living and a dead likeness. In my Judgment, that Is one of Zorn's strongeat points--the painting of the inner men. By ROBERT P. BRINGHURST. PORTRAIT Is a picture which em- bodics the character of the individ- ual, not necessarily a photographic likeness. The best illustration of my im- pression of Zorn's work ts the portraits he painted of Adolphus Busch and of Mr. Ives. They are not photographs, but strong character likenesses. Zorn’s work illus-| trates to me what a portrait really means. By all means, the artist should be paid for | his work. If I gave an order for a portrait | I Would first acquaint myself with the ar- tist's style of work. If I employed a phy- sic‘fan, for instance, to treat my wife, I would first convince myself of his reputa- | tion, but I would not refuse to pay his bill if my wife died under his treatment. An artist can always please himself, but he cannot always please his client, because the client is not always a competent judge. A portraitist cannot paint the same degree of individuality into the face of a man of average intelligence wh'ch he can paint, without effort, into the countenance of a genius.

HUNT, known only as “Firebug” Jonhson, served a long- s er continuous term than any other man ever confined in the Missouri peni- tentiary. - He spent more time in solitary confine- ment than any other American prisoner on record, During the greater part of his impris- onment he has been considered most des- perate and incorrigible. He was pardoned a few days ago by Gov, Stephens on coh- dition that he would leave the stat. It is a rare thing for a prisoneg-to sur- vive 15 years of incarceration, Johnson survived 18 years and 2 months, It is an extremely rare thing for a pris- oner to endure three years of solitary confinement without going mad. John- gon endured nearly 12 yeare of solitary confinement, and nearly 10 of those years without a break, yet his mind developed, his reason strengthened and becaine more acute. When Johnson entcred the peniten- tiary in October, 1882, he was an illiter- ate backwoodsman of 26. .To him the English alphabet was as a Greek hiero- glyph to the average schoolhoy. Johnson leaves the penitentiary 44 years old, a polished scholar, l@arned in book- ish lore, quoting Shakespeare and writ- ing smooth and rounded sentences. This is one of the marvels of Johnson's prison career, but not the greatest mar- vel. That ligs in the simple fact that he is not a gihbbering maniac, That Johnson was developed .by the sort of confinement and punishment that crushes the strongest men, mentally and physical. ly—this is the stupendous Marvel which makes him the most reniarkable convict of the age. This is the miracle of the story. The mere fact ®f long 4nearceration ia un- interesting. The man’s trime is a mere de- tail. There are criminals to spare. Johnson was convicted of robbing an old eoufle in Shelby County who had given him shelter— but that is not the story. The story begins with his tnearceration on a sentence of 12 years, Flogged innum- erable times, manacled and maimed, flung into a dark cel] searcely larger thn a grave, companioned only by solitude through near- ly 12 tedious years, hated and feared alike by warden, guard and‘ fellow-prisoner—yet he cémes forth, one is tempted to say, “a gentleman and a scholar,” his- first utter- ence after his liberation being a quotation Some one observed that Johnson’s hair had turned Gray. He said: “My hair is gray, but not with years, Nor grew it white in a single night As men’s have grown frow sudden fears ”’ And then he added: “My very chalns and T are friends, So much a long communion tends To make us what we are.”’ Shortly before hig release Johnson wrote the following letter to the governor's wife: JEKVFERSON CITY, Mo., Mec. 2, 1900, Mrs. L. V. Stephens: Dear Madam—I would very much like to seo you. I think they fre going to give me my liberty, and the mere thought of it sets me wild. I bave not slept any for three nights, while my heart has been beat- ing like’a sicam engine and fluctuating be- tween hope and fear. Liberty, the buoy of hope, the stay of life, the ambrosial nectar upon which the Soul of even @ poor prisoner feeds, is soon to be mine once more, and I want to see you, to ask you to forgive me and to send me on my way witb your blessing, for once in my despair and madness I blamed you slong with the governor for not getting my liberty. My love for liberty I think made me un- reasonable; hope led me to expect more, perhaps, than I deserved. Although the suffering through has been terrible, am the better for it. I feel kindlier toward my fellowman, as well as more enlightened, and when I leave here it will be with a mind devoted to the principles of gight-aud with a fixed dcier- Mination to do right. I hope that if you cannot see me here ] may be able to see you for a moment before 1 leave Jefferson City (provided I am re- leased, of sk you for your blessing and to forgive me for the deeds of the past, as I would like Yo get startcd out jiyto the world in the right way.

Johnson was differs nt trom the other long-term convicts in this, that never for a moment within those walls did he abandon hope. Not only did he cli: g to the hope of early liberation, but ever and always this man, @ number instead of a name, made into a mere thing by the badge of servi- tude, cherished a fixed and frantic deter- mination to be free. And this very deter- mination doubled his sentence and defeat d his aim for years, though tn the end it brougnt nim the Ifberty he demanded.

Other men the lash crushed and cowed. Johnson it invigs rated with new life. In others it killed the spirit, it extinguished the last flickering spark of manhood. In Johnson it revivittied the drooping spirit; it awoke the sleeping tiger; it aroused the slumbering hyena; it made out of the man a monster. This convict felt the lash and registered to heaven a high resolve—he would be free. To him the whip was the last straw. ‘It out, - .— Confinement FIREBUG JOHNSON’ — Prisoner of the Age , ° ° he ate ‘ t ‘ A\ i Y j 7 a il ‘ _t ee oe ' 4 a ths $e are | i kk Se " & 5 a Most Remarkable a " mn (pana Haat ap fi ite beat, t a ia Mictistt..csese- uss Of : gi : Sh if Hs : ol i iHT off t ae cae “i int aia” =~ MTS j ar BY ' ; 44 % « Hand ah ‘ Ht bie : 4 on 4 ee | ‘y ty * i f"; ’ Briss he H ia ‘ ~ D, ty ij 1 ih ade eS > Nid eh Di a / } ay : | ioe Pua? ’ NTH Bt wf , a ih | , it ‘ah . : ti i tothe Ha ‘y j Ln 4 ; i! i : u hd > it i rf ¢ fe Bie: Hii a OAL eal - eet : 1} ” sth i Mit Bh te ae ites ti aM TRE aH 42} : ‘ ; £ 3 : t ’ 1 + Meet fF Tht bi ' With thie, OFA, iyi tH?

It transformed the camel; it made the camel protest against the whip; it caused- the camel! to become that breed of beast that will not submit docilely to the bearing of burdens, to the bridle of restraint; andthe convict stripes of Johnson became the stripes of the hyena, the tiger of the Missouri peni- tentlary.

He organized a revolt, In the first February of confinement the plot was ripe for plucking. fire to the harness shop, hoping to escape in the excitement which followed, He was captured on the wall, fighting for his free- dom like q fiend.

There was a great fire and a great furore, his Johnson set The fire cost the state $300,000 and the in- surance companies $150,000. more, It -cost Johnson the sorry sort of liberty he en- joyed as a workman with the gang, as a lock-step figure in the long line that swung from cell to hall, from mess hall to workshop, from workshop to cell.

Johnson coincided with the guards. He declared that he was desperate and that he would yet wreak vengeance upon those whom he regarded as his tormentors, They said he had a bad temper. So he had. When enraged his face grew red and puffed up, like the wattle on a turkey gob- bler’s head, in anger. When he talked of Bradbury his 6-foot, 200-ponud frame swell- his athletic muscles corrugated, he Shook like a galley slave straining as his chains. He had a bad temper, but he firmly believed that he was entitled to his liberty and that no man had a right to restralir him.

He coaxed and cod- OD) died the cockroaches. He talked to them— and was sad because they could not re- spond in audible language. Finally, one of them ran up his finger and perched upon his wrist. Johnson smiled, for the first time in years. He had made the conquest of a heart In the world of the human he had not a friend. sradbury hated him and feared him. All the’'guards hated him and feared him. Johnson returned their hate, but not their fear. This little cockroach did not fear him. It did not hate him. It was friendly. He named it Jennie. Who knows but that In this name he honored a romantic memory, for Johnson would never speak of his past? The harder to -win, It was a bad cockroach, and it still feared him. So Johnson named it Bradbury. After a long while, though, Bradbury succumbed to kindly coddling. Bradbury got good, like Jennie, and would run up Johnson's finger and perch upon his wrist. other co kroach’was Now that he had made comrades of his cockroaches, they must have homes within his cell.

Louis One day he entered the cell and talked with Johnson. The guards were aghast. No man had dared to beard the lion in his den. j LEAVES PRISON It was foolhardy, they said. Johnson sure- ly would leap upon his visitor and rend him limb from limtb. Johnsa@m was not a man, they said; he was a wild beast in a cage. But Maj. Gill continued to enter the soll- tary and talk with the prisoner, who soon grew almost as fond of Gill as of his cock- roach friends. Gill went to the warden and insisted that a light be placed tn Johnson's eell, and a small table, and that he be given books. “What's the use?"’ asked the warden. ‘‘He can’t read.”’ “He can learn to read,” feplied Gill, ‘‘and perhaps it will keep him from going mad.” “He's mad enough sald, Gill’s counsel prevailed, Johnson got a Nght, a table and books, The mail inspector first took him a copy of the old-fashioned blue-backed spelling book. From this John- son learned the alphabet and the spelling of simple words, It was slow work, but John- son had plenty of time. Otherwise “there was nothing doing,’’ and Johnson bent all his energies to the achievement of the edu- cationa! task set before him. Gill next: carried the prisoner an elemen- tary arithmetip and a grammar. Johnson studied these with avidity and soon mas- tered them, calling for the higher-grade books. In a short time he could not only read and figure, but he could write legibly and intelligently, Gill supplied him with pen and paper. He wrote.a clear hand and ex- pressed his ideas in choice English. Still he called for books—not the text- books of elementary instruction, but the classics of the language. He cared little for fiction and seldom asked for a novel, He wanted solid reading. Shakspeare was a favorite with him. Byron he devoured pas- sionately. Mill on Liberty, Locke on the Human Understanding, Emerson's Essays, histories of England, France, Rome, Greece, the United States—this class of books Johnson drew from the prison library, through Maj. Gill, and read with appre- ciation. After Maj. Gill retired from his prison po- sition and returned to St. Louis he was surprised one day to receive a bulky pack- age from Jefferson City. He opened it and found within a manuscript book of 740 pages, written by Johnson, describing his 10 years in the solitary and explaining how he kept from going mad, Johnson requested Maj. Gill to secure a publisher for the book and let the author share the proceeds. The prisoner wanted money for use in the world outside, for -he still expected to obtain his release. Johnson had no thought of dying in prison. So Johnson’s solitary life dragged along, with his cockroaches and his poets and his- torians and philosophers, until there was a; what churchmen in this country have been ‘ | . a8 demand from certain, quarters for his resto-| for some time anticipating. ration to ‘‘the line.’’ It Was considered | that he had been punished sufficiently, and that his spirit was broken and that he | would be good if put to work again with the others.

That the convict still took an active interest in the affairs of the moving world, which he knew now only through reading, this letter shows: JEFFERSON CITY PRISON, July 20, 1897. Gor. Charles P.

B. JOHNSON. ; ; | After Eighteen Years of Confinement tive was moved by the lawyer's plea to give the man a chance, but declined to take ac- tion at that time. Before the end of his terms as governor, he said, he might do something for “Firebug’’ Johnson if fhe lat- ter continued on his good behavior. Johnson became an accomplished letter writer. Some of the prison officials allege that he became also an accomplished liar, for he wrote to various state officials, in- cluding the governor, smuggling his letters out by “tr complaining bitterly of treatment he was receiving, and once when a member of the prison committee visited the penitentiary in response to one of John- stige *’ AS LICS, now,” the warden son's plitecus appeals he found the prisoner in the hospital ward taking life very easy. Doubtless, though, Johnson felt himself en- titled to a little ease after his dozen years in the solitary, But Johnson kept on in his new career &s & mode! prisoner, and Wardeh Starke says that he has been easy to handle during the past two years. At last the convict fdund that virtue was more powerful than violence, for Gov. Ste- phens granted him a pardon on the condi- tion that he would ‘leave Missouri, So Johnson, telling the prison officials that his name is really John B, Hunt and that he was reared in Howard County and probably had several brothers and sisters living, came forth into the world. He put on a sulg of man’s clothing, and with trans- portation to El Paso, Tex., and $81 donated by officers of the prison, he took a train for the southwest, accompanied by Warden Starke to the state line. Johnson carried also an English sparrow, successor in his affections to the cockroach comrades. At Parsons, Kan., Johnson got off the SCHOLAR “I am not going to Texas," he said. “They mistreated yne in that prison, and I am Soing to stop right here and make a fight tor the right to live wherever I please.” And this shows that he Is still, in essen- tials, the Johnson of the solitary, whose theory was that the world owes every man his liberty and it is every man’s duty to couect the dehbr. It is evidently Johnson's intention to try to make a living, for the time ‘being, by lecturing @out his prison life, as did John W. Re ynolds. The Kansas ex-convict, a few years ago. Johnson, immediately upon ar- riving at Parsons, went to a printing office and had some handbills print advertis- ing ‘‘Missouri’s Notorious J. Johnson, who would appear that evening at a hall and tell about his ten years in a filihy dungeon and ‘man’s inhumanity to man.’ ”’ But, according to a letter which Johnson Wrote to *x-Gov. Johnson under date of Dec. 9, some one in Missouri wrote to the mayor of Parsons asking him to prevent Johnson from speaking, and the city mar- shal notified him that he would not be allowed to speak. Johnson, in his letter to the St. Louls lawyer, whom he addresses as “Dear old friend of the oppressed,” refers to the fact that he is prevented from lecturing by his enemies in Missourl. He requests ex-Gov. Johnson to send him a letter of recommendation, and to aid him in his ef- fort to secure a full and unconditjonal par- don from incoming Gov. Dockery, so that he may live wherever he chooses and not be trammeled by a conditional pardon. He declares that he wishes to lead an honor- able life and offers a fee of $500, to be paid as soon as he can earn the money, to any Se ne a train and made a stand, — ——— lawyer who will make him absolutely free —_— ee WHO WILL BE THE >. --— _ - — —_— . . NEW AMERICAN CARDINAL? € ~ ’ a This Is the Question That the Clergy Is Asking, but None Attempt to Make More Than a General Guess, NEW YORK, Dec. 9.

Leo himself clings tg his temporal rights and. has chosen his ad- visers from among those who hold the same views. As the pope is elected by the car- dinals the future temporal policy of the church may be determined by the next few creations. There has been for years much specula- tion as to Pope Leo's successor. It Is said that the gentle old man often jests with the cardinals on the subject. In his long pon- tificate he has already buried Ghambertl. Sanfelice, Ruffo and Seilla, who were at various tfmes in line for promotion, and he may survive many of the present as- pirants for his office. There are few dignities as much talked about and so little understood as the cardinalate. That it is a secular office; that it can be, and often has been held | by men not in holy orders will be news to many readers. Such is the fact, however, and many other things may be learned by waging through the 1038 volumes written on this subject by the Cavalier Gaetano Moron!, who was a gentleman o! the bed chamber to the present pope serlous At present all the cardinals are in priests’ ordérs. The famous Cardinal A! tonelll, however, remained a deacon du! ing the greater part of his tenure. Pop Leo the Great became a cardinal at 14, he fore he had even received tonsure.

Ex-Gov. Johnson pondered the letter, and one day he ran up to Jefferson City and had a long talk with the convict and an inter- view with Gov. Stephens, The chief execu- : the rank: “Receive for the glory of Almighty God adornment of the Hely this red hat, the sian of the unequaied dignity of the cardin which is clared that even to death by the shBiding — » LOTT iiEe and the , ™ : tuaie ‘? of thy blood shouldat thou show thyself in- | Apostolic | : | 183 per cent, Germanys 19.5 per cemt and perity of the Christian church, tn A ee etc.”” Time and time again has this solemn injunction been literally obeyed. Doubtless Henry VIII of England had it in mind when he declared that though the Pope might send his chancellor a red hat he'd leave him ne’er a head to wear it. This hat is bright red, round, low in the crown, with a wide stiff rim, from the inside of which hang 15 tassels attached to a triangle. One may be seen suspended from the roof of the Cathedral in New York, directly over the sanctuary, where it was hung after the death of Cardinal Mc Closkey. The red hat is for grand ceremonies only. Ordinarily a cardinal wears the mitre if he be a bishop, and the simar, or red flow- ing cassock. If he be a member of a relig- ious order he wears its habit. The “such- etta,” a tight, close-fitting skull cap, is worn by all, however. When Cardinal Gtb- bons goes for a stroll gn Baltimore, which happens every fine day, the zachetta may be seen beneath his old-fashioned silk hat, and the effect is rather odd. The creation of an American cardinal. would give the college three members to whom English is the mother tongue, for there is one English cardinal, Vaughn of Westminster. Three votes in the next elec-— tion for pope may be a great deal; may even elect a compromise candidate. From the days of Peter there has been but one English-speaking pope, Adrian IV., and there is no other race so largely Catholic which has been so little favored. Thus there is a possibility—remote, but still a possibility—that an American may some day be called to St. Peter's chair. So long as the Pope occupied an important position as a temporal sovereign {t was deemed expedient that he be an Itallan. Should the Concilionisti (those who are willing to abandon temporal sovereignty) obtain a majority in the conclave, might not an American be looked upon with fa- vor? Steamships and submarine cables have brought America much nearer Rome than was [England in the days of Adrian IV. It having been the practice for the cardinals to elect one of their own body Pope the more numerous are the English speaking cardinals the less remote is the possibil- ity referred to. The most available candidates at this time are all Italians.

This body, comprising the most eminent ecientific men of Great Britain, meets an- nually, when the members make known their discoveries during the year. Coal was the chief topic in the geological sec- tion. While the scientists were not agreed as to all the details of the process, they were unanimous upon general points that are in conflict with the theories now given in encyclopedias. In general it was concluded that the sub- stances going Into the composition of coal were sub-aqueous deposits, Many coal seams show such marked evidences of drifted matter as to make this point cer- tain. Much of the coal mn these seams is unquestionably made up of email weter- worn chips of wood or bark. ‘The early view of the formation of coal ted to the theory that it eep:resented forest wacts in the spots where they grew, But 2 as PAS a 2 wis St te as disputing this—while land surfaces were found in the seams—rain. pittings, sun- cracks and footprints were found, not in the coal, but tn the intervening strata, The erect tree trunks uncovered were most of- ten found in sandstone devoid of coal, only the fewest specimens being rooted in the under clay and having association with the coal seams. Land shelis, insect and rep- tilian fossils, too, are rare in the coal. The under clays did not resemble soils and fre- quently, too, they were above the cval instead of under the seam, Again, the per- sistent partings in coal beds are regarded as disproving the old theory for the reason that river systems must be asoribed to the land surfaces and these must have infiu- enced vegetation. Acoording to the assoctlation's findings, the beginning of a coal seam began after the outspreading of sanc and gravel, as in- fluenced by e water...

It was agreed that any great organic change in this was not likely. On this point Dr. Horace Brown, F. R. 8., had made some interesting experiments in Kew Gardens. Introducing unnatural quan- tities of carbonic acid gas into the houses of Kew he had observed the entire suppres- sion of flowering in the plants so treated, and a sharp shortening of the Internodes, or stretches of stem between which leaves and stems branch out. Altogether the doc- tor was of the opinion that any possible excess of carbonic acid gas in the atmos- phere of the coal period could have had only negative influences upon the growth and reproduction of plant life. The increase of this gas in the expert- ments had been slight, too. — Almost without 4xception the association members were agr “4 that the coal seams > a - = were formed under wate?t. One kindred and yet diverging theory was that the coal -forming substances tn the main were vege- table debris from plants growing in the shallow rims of lakes and pools.

Special Correspondence of the Sunday Post-Dispatch. i A N INVITED audience at a private resi- dence in Brooklyn listened to a dis- course by High Priest Murza Assad Uliah on the Babist faith, or, as it is called, | in this* country, the “Truth Knowers.”’ | Hooper Harris, a convert to and teacher of | Murza Assad Ullah was accomparttied by his | associate, Murza Korassania: an inter- | preter, Murza Houssein Roniie, and Mr. J. the new faith. | The meeting was opened by the intoning | of a “commune’.by the high priest while | the audience sat with bowed heads. Then the venerable Murza Assad Ullah stood at a table in the center of the drawing room, with his interpreter on one side and his as- | sociate, the Murga Hassan Korassania, on | the other, The difficultles of the interpreter, | who is himself a Persian, were great, but he | succeeded in ‘giving the audience a fairly | clear idea of the doctrine the teachers wished to impart. He Waid that the teach- ers present had some on their long journey from the East,to bring to the people of the West the truth that' had been mercifully revealed to the followers of God in their ancient land. Figures Show That They Are Spreading Abroad. PARIS, Dec. 8. Special Correspondence of the Sunday Post-Dispatch. T COMES rather like a revelation to find haps, it might be more correct to say that the Turkish government, or, per- the Sultan, has been engaged in collecting statistics showing the Mussulman popula- tion in various parts of the world. The re- sult has just been published, and in view of the possible object of the undertaking, is of considerable interest. In the domin- ions under the personal rule of the Sultan the Mussulmans are stated at 18,000,000, while in the contiguous states and territor- les in Asia, including Persia, Afghanistan, Beloochistan, India, Russian Turkestan and China, their numbers are estimated at 99,- 000,000. Africa, where the Mohammedan religion has made great strides in the last half of the century, is credited with 36,500,000 followers of the prophet,and 23,000,000 are de- scribed as inhabiting other countries and the islands of the eastern seas. It does not appear that the total of these figures, 179,- 500,000, is exaggerated, as recent estimates have placed the Mussulman population of the world at clgse upon 200,000,000. The Islamic world, however, 1s divided re- ligiously into two sections, the vagt majori- ty being Sunnis, and the minority, princi- pally in Persia, being Shiahs, who hold more or less aloof from the Sunnis, of whom the Sultan of Turkey is the nominal head as é r | Z eee Caliph of Islam. The Mussulman popula- | ip fis i Mlle eg ) rs ; Se. j iii Ee aa tion of India under the political rule of the | ve % sie, “aii Fg ae of | * Ee Satie gage Se er a 2 leg ME a British government and in the native states Ge, | Bie, 82 Hei: may be set down in round numbers at near- ly 60,000,000. By far the greater part of these are Sunnis, as are also the Afghans and the Turcomans. The Chinese Mohammedans, who are mostly found in Kashgaria, Mon- golia, Yunnan and Kansuh, are very vare- iously estimated, some authorities, basing their calculations on data furnished by Chi- nese officials for the whole empire, placing them as high as 20,000,000. These, like all the other followers of Islam belonging to the Sunni section are in direct communi- cation with the Mecca, though having little political affinity with Constantinople. This is due in great part to the lethargy of the Turkish character and the internal troubles of Turkey that called for the concentration of the Sultan’s attention on his own home affairs. But recent events have enabled him to look somewhat outside the immediate circle of his own dominions, and among the things which he has done has been to take stock of the forces over which in certain eventualities he might exercise some con- trol. It is now a little time since he entered in- to a kind of alliance with the Benoussi, who rold sway in the Central Soudan, and quite recently there has been a remarkable ex- change of amenities between the Sultan and the Shah of Persia, whose territories march side by side for several hundreds of miles . ! e owt See in Asia.

For a number of years the British govern- ment has kept a watchful eye on the grow- ing intimacy of the relations between the Mussulmans of India and Constantinople, and one one occasion the presence of some Turkish emissaries in India was the occas- sion of a sharp passage at arms between the British representative at Constantinople and the Sultan. The Russian government also last year found Itself suddenly con- fronted with a threatened rising of its Mus- sulman subjects in eastern Tyrkestan, but it was quickly suppressed, The source of the trouble was never accurately ascertained, some of the Russian papers ascribing it to Constantinople and some to Simla. Connecting the two important facts of the comparative energy with which the Sultan is pushing on the construction of the rail- way through Palestine to Mecca and his re- cent census-taking of the Mussulmap world, it is quite evident that he is watching events and getting ready, in his way, for eventualities. The aggressiveness of the Christian governments and missionary Oor- ganizations in all non-Christian countries is no doubt one of the animating causes of the Sultan’s action. He desires to concen- trate in his own hands, as far as possibile, the power of resistance contained in the “There is but one God,” said the speaker, | “and he alone is supreme. In all ages God has revealed himself to mankind through | his prophets, and whoever accepts the truth | from them has a new spirit—that is, a spirit | renewed by the heavenly truth which he has received.”’ The unity of God was impressed upon the audience and then the nature and office of | the prophet who dwelt upon, together with ' the signs by which a true prophet is glways | known. The character and work of several of the prophets were summarized, begin- ning with. Adam, who is reckoned by the Babists the first of the prophets. His suc- cessor was Noah, who told the truth that was imparted to him by God, but was de- rided and his repeated warnings of the wrath to come we unheeded until it was too late. Moses followed, and his successor was Christ, whose book remains to tell the world of his life and crucifixion. In speaking of the prophets the Murza would say over | the ones named, and after mentioning Christ, would not specify others. In no in- | stance did he mention the name of Moham- | med, who is recognized by the Babists as | the sixth prophet. Nor would the priest ad- | mit that his faith was an offshot of Mo- | ammedanism when the question was asked | by a member of the audience. But the sixth | prophet, according to the Babs, is the ‘‘mes- | senger of the kingdom,” who is now on/§ earth and is living at Akka, Syria. Abdel Beha, or Christ, is the head of the | faith, and son of the “‘Manifestation,’’ who | was none other than God himself made. manifest in the flesh, and who lived on this | earth until 1892. The Murza Assad Ullah did | not refer to the Beha, or give any name | to the religiog whose principles he was ex- | pounding. He spoke only of spiritual truths, Mf) using the Bible as proof of all that was Yi ’ : ae - : oe Dp, ‘5 tu % By ‘ claimed for it by him. The Babs maintain Yy : — see An 1 ESS Se $ | sg ae ge A that they have the real religion, and, by : : a és 4 « ¥ J taking the holy books of any religious sect, can prove by them the truth of the unity of God and the power of the spirit that is embued with faith in God. No other relig- fous teaching i{s'so universal as this, and, it is asserted, no other is so spiritual, so all-embracing. “No one can be of. this faith and not be sincere and honest, born of water and of spirit, and he who comes to it with perfect and pure sincerity will prosper and succeed | thoroughly.” The teachings as expounded by the '| Murza, were simple: To accept the glad tid- | ings of the coming of God, to confess his | openness and singleness, to be naturalized | with the attributes of God, to come nearer to. the knowledge of God. Thé manner of both speakers and of the | interpreter was dignified and impressive, and when the Murza Korassania closed the | meeting with a “commune,”’ which he in- | toned in a touchingly sorrowful manner, all | present stood up. Communes are prayer, and the following is one most often used by | the believers: “O God, give me knowledge, faith and love. Adorn my head, O God, | with the crown of thy providence, my heart with the light of knowing thee, my tongue with the utterance of thy greatest name * * * and mine ear with listening to thy holy word, for thou are the only one whose action was, is and ever shall be glorified, sae: apse 4 : See mass represented by 176,500,000 of Mussul- and whose commands shall ever be obeyed.

Shortly after my arrival] I was in- troduced by Mrs. Fanny Stockton, a sprightly widow who affected goidenhair and silken attire. 41 called at her home several times and found the lady bright and entertaining, but there was an atmosphere of insincerity and mys- tery about her which I thought strange. Soon, however, business took me over to Oakland, where 1 had rented a sture, so that my visits to the city became infre- quent and for some time I saw little of the widow. Mrs. Stockton, at length, be- gan a series of visits to me, afd mad it a point to come across the bay on sunny at- an acquaintance to | ternoons and call at the store for an hour's chat. 1] was at that time acquiring a larze and profituble trade and she noted this fact with much satiSfaction.

It is a Chicago woman of German family, who lives on the north side of this city, who has made a pet out of this dreaded reptile. This woman ts a lover of all wild animals, and every one of the beasts and Dirds in Lincoln Park menagerie knows and loves her. Over the initials of ‘‘A..W."* she writes of her pet in the Times-Herald: “When I saw for the first time a live Gila monster, about 10 years ago, I was positively fascinated by Its odd looks, its salamander-like coloration and its unusual aspect in general—and the desire to own one was great and grew constantly until it was satisfied, now more than three years ago. For almost a year I did not touch Jim—that fs his pet name—but with a rod and a wire snare; these were supplant- ed later by the dustpan and brush in transfers from and to his box.

Nor is there any jugglery and charming done, as sometimes people seen to believe. Only mutual understanding and confidence in each other were relied upon to do the work. I firmly believe he will never bite me—al- though kind friends speculate somewhat on a final tragedy. It was evident from the beginning that Jim liked to be spoken to in a low and gentle voice; that it was even agreeable to him to be stroked and es- pecially to rest on my warm hand. “His food consists exclusively in hen’s eggs, raw and beaten; in summer one -sS given per week; in winter every two or three weeks only, an astonishing frugality. The egg must be broken or he will bump it against the sides of the cage until the shell parts. I give it to him with a spoon, both for the sake of cleanliness and on the principle that an ani- mal must learn to understand that all which comes from the hand of the master is for its best. ‘The latest accomplishment of Jim is to lick—or, more politely expressed, to kiss— my hand by way of command, and he does it very nicely as often as he is requested. “T have seen an angry Gila monster—this same one now so docile, so submissive—and I shall keep the remembrance of the sight for a long while.

One evening last winter he came out—no, he rushed out—from under the chiffonier close by, raised himself up as high as his stubby forelegs allow, and be- gan to puff and to hiss in a most threaten- ing way; opened his mouth to its full ex- tent and threw his head with lightning- like rapidity to the right and to the left, snapping at some imaginary foe. I stood there, alarmed and amazed at the same time, while this strange performance was going on at my feet. The animal, how- ever, made not the slightest attempt to as- sault me. I was wholly unable to compre- hend what possibly could be the cause of this both sudden and unprovoked madness. Speaking to him soothingly I began to scratch his back gently with a little rod, something he always likes very much. I ex- pected him to bite the rod—but by no means. It was quite remarkable how quickly the animal became calm; in fact, so calm that I ventured now to lift him up, as usual, with the hand. But—new sur- prise!—I could not get him off the carpet. The poor fellow in his excitement clutched it so tightly with his claws that he would have been hurt had I used but Httle force. One*foot after the other had to be loosened before he could be taken up at last. In his cage he walked about restlessly for a long time, with an occasional hiss ail to him- self. “And what was the cause of this unac- | countable fit of anger?

ITH the apparent ease of a profes- sional strong man, this 10-year-old boy juggles heavy iron safes, lifts barrels of sugar weighing 150 pounds and plays with ponderous weights and dumb- bells running in weight from 650 to 300 pounds. His name is Willie Reynolds. Like the Scriptural Samson, he believes that the secret of his strength lies in his long hair. When Willie was born his hatr, golden in color, was fully two inches long. It now hangs below his waist, never having been visited by the barber’s shears. Residents of Jersey Shore and from all parts of the state who have wit- nessed Master Willie’s feats of strength are amazed. He is looked upon by them almost as a reincarnation of the great Samson of biblical fame. Whether or not the boy’s great strength lies in his hair is a question which he does not wish to decide by allowing himself to be shorn of his locks—an operation which he refuses to undergo. Willie {is apparently more proud of his hair than he of his great physical strength. He declares that he would far sooner part with his right arm than his golden tresses. The boy’s father is William Reynolds, a tourists respected townsman of Jersey Shore. “We began to notice Willie’s great said he to a Sunday Post-Dis- strength,”’ patch reporter, ‘when he was about three _years old. As a baby he was. far in ad- vance of his years in muscular develop- ment. His Httle legs and arms were as firm as rocks and his chest something extraordinary. What we most marveled at, though, was his curious growth of hair. I had never heard of a baby born with so much hair, and he ‘didn't seem to mind anyone pulling it, either. I have frequently taken hold of it, lifted him from the floor and held him out at arm’s length, with mever a murmur _ For that» reason ae have expansion Willie Reynolds, 10 Years Old, Juggles Iron Safes, Lifts Barrels of Sugar and Manner. of Strength. never allowed his hair to be cut, fearing that his health might be affected. “I am firmly convinced that my son's Strength les in his hair. His apparent mus- cular development at present is no differ- ent from that of an ordinary youth who has perfect health. His left arm is no big- ger, the right only slightly larger. Where does his great strength come from if not from his hair? Only a week ago he tried his hand with several full-grown men at a weight-lifting machine, and when the oth- ers had tugged away at the machine with al their might Willie took hold of the han- die and without apparent effort pulled the Whole thing from its fastenings.”’ Several attempts have been made by practical jokers to deprive the young Sam- son of his golden tresses, and only his strength and quickness of action have saved them for him. Two men stopped the little fellow when on his way to school about a year ago. One of them tried to school his arms while the other grabbed his hair, which was done up in two long brands, and with a sharp knife attempted to cut it off. Several spectators say that in the twink- ling of an eye both men were sent sprawl- ing in the gutter, while the owner of the hair calmly picked up his books and scam- pered off to &hool. Willie has posed before the Sunday Post- Dispatch camera in a Series of his wonder- ful feats. He is shown holding up a barrel of sugar weighing 150 pounds and holding out at arm's length a 50-pound fron cask. The lit- tle chap took hold of the heavy barrel while the photographer was adjusting his camera and held it three feet from the ground for more than 50 seconds. “Is that all,” he asked quietly, as the picture was snapped “I can hold it like this as long as you like.” Holding out the heavy iron cask was to him a simple task. For two minutes, his arm extended straight from the shoulder, the boy stood likea Statue, without a trem- or, and when the picture was taken he con- tinued to hold the cask out until the third minute had passed. : Willie exercises dally with 12-pound dumb- bells and heavy Indian clubs, which he has learned to swing easily and gracefully. He says he will wear his hair In the nat- ural state as long as he lives, and his be- lief is firm that should he ever have to part with it his health and strength will like- wise leave him.

For several days the fishermen had refused to go out, asserting that a sea monster was swimming around the entrance to the bay and that it would be sure death to ven- ture to the open sea. There was a con- siderable amount of scoffing, which, how- ever, ceased suddenly when a messenger came breathlessly from the beach on the third day to announce that the monster was in the bay. At once the entire popula- tion sallied forth and crowded on.the shore. Before long there was a shout: “There it is, to the east!" Looking In that direction, the crowd say what they agreed in de- scribing as a snakelike thing, with a huge head sticking out of the water. This head, according to them, was that of an immense horse with a flaming red mane. The length of the beast was estimated at from 20 to 80 feet by different observers. They had lots of time to talk about it, for the myster- ious animal was not seen again for more than a week. Then one morning an ex- cited fisherman annouced that it was on the shore dead. And so it proved. And its actual length made an excellent commen- tary on the accuracy of sea serpent meas- urers, for it was only little more than 17 feet. But they were right about the mane. Al- though it Isn't a mane, it certainly looks like one. The oarfish has a wonderful un- dulating crest on its head. It !s composed of from eight to fifteen fin rays, and each one has a membranous tip, making the en- tire crest look more like the crest of a cook- atoo that the ray-crest of a fish. The en- tire back of the oarfish is ridged with beau- tiful undulating fins, which look like a con- tinuation of the “mane,”’ and which add to its weird appearance when it swims along the surface. Crest and fins are red or brown and the body color of the fish is silver gray with a few streaks and spots of darker hue. All this again agrees with the most authori- tative accounts given from time to time, by reliable observers, of the sea serpent. A specimen 12% feet long was caught about 50 years ago in the British Channel. When it was seen it was about six miles off shore and at first the fishermen feared to go near it. But soon they saw from its actions that it was dying. It was lying on its side apparefily dead by the time the boat came up with it. But im- mediately it righted itself and swam straight at the craft with a gentle, lateral undulation like the motion of an eel. As it swam, it elevated its head and crest above the water. Frightened by the sight’ tho men in the bows struck at it was a harpoon, and it made off at once with a beatiful mo- tion and disappeared as quickly as light- ning under the surface. Twice this was re- peated, but at last the men got a harpoon into it and killed it after a short struggle. The oarfish is a deep-sea form, tnhabit- ing the waters not less than 1000 feet in depth and probably preferring depths of from 2000 to 3000 feet. But it ts different from many of its cogeners of the abysses In that it can ascend to the surface without suffer- ing, or being burst from the decreased pres- sure. It is supposed, however, that it rarely ascends from choice, and that the specimens which have been seen were driven to the surface either through hunger or by storms that reached even them in the eternal night and silence of their unknown deeps. That they are enormously plentiful is evident from the fact that, few as are the specimens | that have been seen or taken, they are re- corded in every part of the world’s oceans. Of the 44 which were known until the dis- covery of the New Zealand specimen, 14/ were reported from the Scandinavian coast from 1740 to 1852, 19 from the British coast | from 1759 to 1884, one in the Mediterranean, | one from the Bermudas, three off the Cape | of Good Hope, one from the Indian Ocean and five from the seas of Oceanica. | Only the smallest and weakers of them) appear to have drifted ashore from time to | time. This is natural, for storms that over- | came these least powerful ones would still | leave the big ones safe and unharmed in their hiding places Yet even the poor specimens recorded show lengths of from | 2% to 30 feet, and deep-sea explorers believe | that the fish may reach almost any con- ceivable length within reason, say anywhere from 380 to 60 feet, and perhaps more. Naturally no specimen of oarfish ever has been taken In the many deep sea dredging expeditions which have gone out In the past 2% years. This swift swimming, powerful form could not be taken in the comparative- ly weak and tiny trawls which are sent down into primitive ooze at the end of a half mile of piano wire.

It hardly ever reaches a size greater than three or four feet, but it is a ribbon fish, like the oarfish, and it inhabits the same waters as its. huge co cousin. Bagy ELEPHANT ELECTRIC CFOS OOOHS POWERFUL ie VIENNA, Dec. 9. Special Correspondence of the Sunday Post-Dispatch. N THE whole field of civil engineering it would be difficult to find a device which has done more to expedite the construction of works that involve the handling and removal of great masses of material than the powerful suction dredges which are associated with the name of Lin- don W. Bates, an American engineer. One of the most recent machines of this class to be constructed is the powerful double dredge which was built for the Russian government dredging operations on the Volga river. In designing the Volga dredges Mr. Bates introduced several novel features, which were intended to economize time in the the dredges themselves pipes by which the conveyed and dlis- novel feature is the maneuvering of and of the pontoon dreded material is charged.

The twin propel- lers at the stern are also each direct con- nected to a 125-horse power motor. Two %-horse power motors are carried on each pontoon line, one of which extends from the stern of each half of the dredge. The four motors on each dredge and the motors on the pontoons are all connected with, and can be controlled from, the pilot house.

At a speed of 200 revolutions per minute the Indicated herse power is 800. Of course, the most important feature in a dredge of this type is the main centrifugal pump, which ts located amidship. The run- ner makes from 150 to 180 revolutions per minute. It is driven by a divided, vertical, triple-expansion engine, one set of cylinders being carried on the starboard and the other Set on the port side of the pump, the whole being connected upon one shaft. The high pressure cylinder is 21 inches in diameter, the intermediate 34 inches and the low pres- sure 389 Inches in dilamter, the common stroke being 24 inches. The indicated horse power ls from 1435 to 1600, The dredged material is brought up by means of four’suction pipes, which are at- tached near the bow of the dredge and hinged upon a common horizontal axis on the dredge. They are raised and lowered by means of derricks, two of which are at- tached at each bow, and they are capable of dredging to a maximum depth of 16 feet. The lower ends of the four suction pipes on each dredge are enclosed by rotary cut- ters, which are rotated by means of miter gears and shafting which are attached to the suction p!pes and move with them. Each set of shafting ts driven by a cutter engine, which ts located tn the forward part of the hull. It will be seen from our illustration that the suction pipes and cut- ters form two ladders, supported one on elther side of each hull. and approaching each other just in front of the stem of the bow, the four cutters being gpaced at equal distances from each other. the width from outside to outside being slightly more than the extreme breadth of the dredge. Some novel features are embodied tn the pontoons, which, with the exception of one at the extreme ends of the respective lines of discharge pipe, are all of similar con- struction.

Until this year England has carried off The nobility the honors in the cat world. and aristocracy possessed the ‘‘catteries”’ which produced all the champions. This year America takes the lead, having won this distinction by a clever strategy. England, France and Belgium during the past three years have been ransacked for One after another the prize- winners of Europe have been brought over white cats. to thiga country. Suddenly Europe awakened to the fact At the same that it had no white cats. time, by a curious psychological phenom- enon, a demand arose for cats with soft white coats. The finest farms in England had no white All eyes turned to America, Here cats. white cats of the best pedigree were found, At once America had to be acknowledged leader of cat fashions. Tt Is not to eyery white cat, however, that the palm of victory may be awarded. Tt must be an Angora. To possess a fine white Angora cat is to stand on the utmost pinnacle of cat fame. England is the home of the cat, and in that country the first cat shows came into existence. From the first nobility in- terested themselves. At the Crystal Palace in London—where the first cat shows were held—cats were exhibited for which as _ much as $17,000 were paid. The National Cat Shows, held at the Aquarium and the Crystal Palace, bring to- gether the cream of English society. The president of the National Cat Club ts thé Duchess of Bedford, and among the vice-presidents are Lillian, Duchess of Marlborough, the Countess of Warwick, the Hon. Mrs. Morrison, Mme. Ronner, the famous cat painter; the Countess of Sefton and others of note. Mr. Louis Wain, the famous cat artist, is president of committee. This cat club keeps a regular stud book, and also a “black list.”” Those persons are black- listed who have not behaved properly with regard to their cat friends, or who have acted dishonest!ly in cat competitions. To be on the black books of the Na- tional Cat Club is one of the worst forms of social ostracism. Corresponding to the National Cat Club of iny'and is the Exposition Feline In- ternationale of France. Such men as Zola, Mrancois Coppee, Andre Theuriet and Ca- tulle Mendes have won prizes. In this country we have several high- lv organized cat societies. These are the Cat Club in Boston, the. Beresford Cat Club of Chicago and the American Cat Club of New York. Many cat shows have been held at the Madison Square Garden, and competition has been keen and not without personal jealousy. The first American cattery by Mrs. Clinton Locke, president of the Reresford Cat Club of Chicago. She has many notable cats at her home, 2852 Indiana avenue. Among these are the famous Beadle. Mrs. Locke owns the finest chin- chillas In the United States, and her cats have won innumerable prizes. To own a private cattery is the ambi- was started MNT A LE: are in this country several well-known ones. Miss Lucy Nichols conducts the Ben Mahr Cattery in Waterbury, Conn.; Miss Olive Watson has a cattery in War- rensburg, Pa.: Mrs. 8. 8. Leach runs the Bonny Lea Cattery in New London, and Mrs. B. M. Gladding has many fine cats in Memphis, Tenn. Cat fanciers in this country think noth- ing of paying $1500 for a good cat, and as much as $5500 has been paid for a kitten of high degree. But it is not only among the exclusive society set that cats are appreciated. Many writers boast the possession of fine cats. Among the literary cat owners are Mrs. Harriet Prescott Spofford, Mrs. Louise Chandler Moulton, Miss Agnes Repplier, Miss Mary E. Wilkins. Louise Imogen Guiney, Mrs. A. D. T. Whitney and Miss Sarah Orme Jewett. While the white cat is fashionable this year there are valuable cats of other color. There are the blue chinchillas, Sia- mese browns, sables, cream-colored silvers, tortoiseshell red and long and short haired of all colors, One of the finest white Angora cats in America is owned by D. W. Stevens of Westfield, Mass. Its name is Ajax and it was born in 1893. This cat has frequently won prizes at the New York Cat Show. Its owner has refused large sums of money for it. Now its value will be more than quadrupled. “Tommy,” a white Persian cat captured in 1889, was valued at $500 two years ago. This year he will doubtless be worth some- thing like $2000. Tommy was kept caged for a year, and at first its owner thought he would prove untamable.

Mrs. Frances Hodgson Burnett Townsend owns many fine cats and has won several prizes in New York. She has written of her cats in her books. The Angora cat of this year should have blue eyes. It should be wholly white In its fur coat. Orange, yellow and black Angoras are valuable, but not so highly prized as cats with solid white coats. The correct eye for other styles of Angora is amber. Greenish-hued eyes are not valued, Here are the chief points to be consid- ered in arriving at a decisign as to a cat’s value: F A long-haired cat should be judged with regard to his frill, or ‘‘lord mayor’s chain” —which has a direct bearing on the qual- ity and quantity of his hair. The ear tufts, the tufts between the toes and the fiexibility of the tail are other points. With short-haired cats, first the color be considered, then the eyes, shape of head and finally tho ears. The head of a good cat should show great breadth between the eyes. The ecyes should be round and wide open. cats ought to have blue eyes; black cats vellow eyes, other should have eyes of pea- green. A good nose should be short and taper. The lower leg should be straight, the upper hind leg lie at closed angles. The frame of a good cat should be light, but deep-chested and it should have a slim, graceful neck. The ears should be rounded and not large. Tails of long-haired cats should be bent over at the end.

They passed A away in the Garden of Eden, at the foot of Adam’s Peak, on the same night, within a few hours of each other. The bodies were found on a bed of roses, lilies and pinks, their ordinary couch. Even in death Adam held Eve in his loving em- brace. He wasn't expected to survive his helpmeet. Just before her death I visited the old couple in their home. After entering an inclosure our driver drew rein before a vast flower bed. ‘‘Mas- ters, we are here,’’ he said, removing his hat and sandals. On the grass at the entrance of a bamboo summer house sata man and woman. They were nude but for aprons of leaves girthing thefr loins. The man was tall, with beautiful features. His eyes were large, and there was an air of refinement about him that contrasted strangely with his nakedness. His gray hair fell in curls upon his shoulders and down his back; his beard reached to the top of the apron, ‘ The woman was not robust, but seemed in health, and, though her long blond hair was She had a slight frame, beautiful hands and feet, and the tine ankle and tapering calf of a well- made Englishwoman. Around her neck she wore a wreath of roses and violets, and on her head was a diadem, made of pinks. When my companion let fall his cane they caught sight of us and advanced. “Welcome to Paradise, children,” said the Tan. ‘May it please you to enter my hut and partake of the fruits of this earth.” “Let thy son greet thee, Mother Eve,” said my companion. “I am glad the good Lord allows thee and father to live happily in the garden where He put you to dress it and keep it, as it was written in the sacred book,’’ Mother Eve sought her husband's hand before she made answer. ‘“‘Thank thee, son, for remembering me. Yes, we are always happy. Our children, beautiful as the Sun, kind as the stars, people the earth from pole to pole, singing the praises of the Al- mighty and multiplying like the sand.” I shook hands hands with the old man, addressing him as “Father Adam,” at which he seemed pleased. ‘‘And how long dost thou hope to enjoy this beauteous world?”’ I asked. Father Adam raised ‘his eyes to the moun- tain. ‘‘When the Lord, my maker, set his foot on that sainted spot on the summit of yonder peak, he said to me: “Adam, my well-beloved son, I leave thee Eve for a companion. Love her as thou lovest thy- self; wrap her in the folds of thy soul; let _ nothing bruise her head or hand; live ac- cording to my laws, and thou and Eve shall be the parents of untold millions of happy men and women, children of the Lord, BehojA this garden. It is thine.’”’ And straining the woman to his bosom while regarding her with eyes full of tender- ness, Adam exclaimed: “She has tri- umphed.”’ Then the two old people seemed to for- get all about us and their preferred hos- pitality. They stood with their hands clasped, Eve leaning on Adam’s shoulder. Soon they awoke from their dream and led us to the summer house, Was there ever a more fdyllic retreat? tion cf many society women. Already there - How the Wealth Was Accumulated That Makes the Baby Just Born the Richest in NEW YORK, Dec. }4. Special Correspondence of the Sunday Post-Dispatch. HE baby just born to Mr. and Mrs. 7 William K. Vanderbilt, Jr., is the topmost twig on a family tree that has grown in ninety. years from an honest acorn to a spreading king of the genealogi- cal forest of which every leaf is a gold leaf. At the close of this great century the sweet little child that slips down from the stars to coo and smile on the Vanderbilt hearthstone must, by the law of heritage, have packed away in its nerve cells some- where the titanic Vanderbilt force that, in railroad and steamship enterprises, has changed the face of the earth. And all these golden fortunes, these shining mil- lions, are awaiting the Vanderbilt babes. These souvenirs of power and a great namé, these little packages of love and baby talk, may some day—tomorrow or next week—be shaking the continent with new policies. lence the interest in the heirs to the Van- derbilt fortunes. The interesting question is how the Van- derbilt wealth has grown with the increase of the families bearing that honored name. Much has been published about the ex- tent of the Vanderbilt fortune, but it is de- clared that outside of sworn official state- ments all statements on the subject are pure fancy. It is declared that in the old com- modore’s lifetime none besides’ himself knew how much he was worth. It was a se- ecret unknown to wife or sons. When he died neither they nor his lawyer knew the amount of his wealth. Not until some time after the commodore's death did any living person know what his fortune had been at any pertod in his life. Memoranda found among his papers then revealed for the first time how much he had been worth at 70 years of age. He was the most secretive of men. It was his hobby to conceal his wealth. Any hint or statement from him on his business affairs was the reverse of the facts. He revealed but tv conceal what he desired no one to know. In 1810, at the age of 146, Cornelius Vander- bilt, the old “Commodore,” who founded the fortune, was estimated to be worth $100. In 1864, at 70 years of age, he was worth 616,000,000. Having reached the the World. Psalmist’s period of three score and ten, his activities instead of ceasing became energized as never before, because in 13 years—from 70 years of age, in 1864, to & years of age, at the time of his death, in 1877—he had added to his fortune of $20,- 000,000 $85,000,000 more, leaving an estate estimated at $105,000,000. A conservative estimate as to how much the Vanderbilt fortune left by the commo- dore has been increased by the judicious management and conservative policy of his son, William H., and of his grandsons and granddaughters, the children of William H., would be $300,000, 900. Ninety years ago, on May 27, 1810, a boy of 16 made his first trip to New York by the new Staten Island ferry line. That was the beginning of the Vanderbilt fortune. The boy owned the boat and the ferry. But it was not until his 17th year that Commo- dore Vanderbilt abandoned water transpor- tation for railroads. He then bought con- trol of the first railroad built into New York, for $3,000,000, It was the ancient Har- lem, rickety, rusty and swamped by mis- management and bad business. In a dozen years, through the purchase ard restora- tion of other roads, he increased his fortune at the rate of $1°,000,000 a year. Since then the Vanderbilt property has expanded hun- dreds of more millions. So it is safe to say that the little fairies salling down the mat- rimonial skies from year to year to bear the mighty name wil! have a busy task keeping account of all the growing treasure. The one characteristic of the Vanderbilt policy is force—to win, to control and reign. It was this indomitable will power of the old Commodore that made him commercial- ly supreme-—the master of men and situa- tions. He crushed opposition and desroyed treacherous combinations with giant ease. Iie did it in open contest before men and the world, often giving his opponents due warning of the punishment to come. And he kept his word, W. A. Croffut notes that after selling his Steamship interest to the Nicaragua Transit Co., and finding them breaking their con- tract by refusing further payments, having amassed wcalth and become indifferent, in- country, and it is the highest form of ad-, ae “og oF a te STE es Beli Me ae PBs > Boe Lage Tee eS.

Yours truly, CORNELIUS VANDERBILT. He put on opposition steamers and in two years bankrupted the defrauding million- aires. It was this Alpine stupendousness of | tnterprise and intellect that carried every- thing—wealth, monopoly and opposition combinations—before the Vanderbilt forces. | He reduced rates and tncreased the size, speed and magnificence of his steamers. | When the subsidy lobby of the Collins Ocean line defeated his bill in Congress for a mail contract,-he started a line of pat- atial steamships to ply between New York and Havre, and he carried the mails free. That smashed the monopoly. Such was the spirit that the Vanderbilt, Genius carried into his railway campaigns. He did not begin warfare except in the way of reducing rates and introducing reforms and making {mprovements in every depart- | ment all along the lines. Instead of taking | money out of his roads he put millions into) them for {mprovements. | This caused war on Vanderbilt, and then | he exerted his power. In the light of prog- | ress and reform men saw miracles. He re- placed the wrecks with advanced railroad- | ing—double tracks, iron bridges, big loco- motives making greater speed, drawing pal- ace trains that reached their destinations | promptly on time.

Vanderbilt, son of the Commo- | dore, and Cornelius and Willlam K., sons | of William H., have been handled so skill- fully as to expand year by year is a familiar story. Chauncey M. Depew, a friend and official associate of the Vanderbilts for many | years, comments thus on the growth of the | properties: “There is this to be sald about the Van- derbilts’ policy, that the other stockholders have always shared equally with them in | the prosperity of the properties.

During the repast Father Adam warned me against the ‘foolish belief’ that Adam's Peak was the scene of his penl- tence after expulsion from Paradise. “Samuel and Eblis are two angels whom the Lord sent to try our constancy,’ he said. “One of them asserts that I stood on the peak for 1000 years on one hence the ‘mark.’ It’s 5 feet long and has only a rude resemblance to a human foot. I know what ift signifies. It's the Sri-pada, where the great Jehovah rested after cre- ating heaven and earth and the lights of the firmament and fish and fowl and beasts les, and-€attle, and finally made me after his own image. And after he had biessed them and me and instructed me he re- turned to heeven, leaving the footprint on the spot where he soared heavenward.” In the tax registers of Ceylon Adam and Eve figure as Mr. and Mrs. Gillesple—and figure to a large ameunt. They came to the island to take possession of a planta- tion left by a deceased relative. Both were remarkabie for beauty; both had hankerings for religious mysticism. Their plantation lay tn the fertile valley stretching In the shadow of Adam's Peak, while their bungalow stood in the vast park just described. For three years Mr. and Mrs. Gillespie were the center of planter and offictal Ife. Then they learned the difficult native lan guage, to commune with the priests, and legends -woven around the ancient® shrines. Finally they became so engrossed with their subject that they made many phii- grimézes to Adam’s Peak, where they Joined the Buddhists and Hindoos in devotion. Tha planter began to call his wife Eve, ‘‘that her name might harmonize with his own,”’ which happened to be Adam. They began to lay out their park according to the de- scription of Paradise. WHITE CATITHE DEATH OF “ADAM AND EVE” IN PARADISE One night Malay pirates swooped down on thelr bungalow with fire and sword. Mr. and Mrs, Gillespie had to flee for their lives, nd took shelter in the forest. When they emerged after three days they had forgotten their station tn life; their minds were blank as to property and the exigencies of civilized life. They called themselves Adam and Eve and dressed in aprons of leaves. The public administrator sent for insanity experts, who declared that Mr. and Mrs. Glilespie suffered from a fixed idea, but were harmiess. It was decided to seques- trate them in the big park, and guardians were appointed to watch over their wel- fare. while their property passed into the hands of a board of directors who govern it im the interest of the family. “Adam and Eve” lived happily in the Kden of their choice. They were permitted to “clothe” themselves, to eat and drink after thegnanner laid down in Genesis. \While they slept natives “dressed and kept” the great garden, drove off the game and harvested the crops. They were looked aft- er in the best possible way; medicine was mixed with thetr food when necessary. In short, everything was done to humor their queer notions.

LONDON, Dec. 10. Special Correspondence of the Sunday Post-Dispatch. N THD House of the Good Shepherd a surgeon on the staff has been conduct- ing a series of experiments determining some of the hitherto unknown motor centers of the brain. The head of a brown setter dog, inlaid with small ivory plates, out of which project knobs of silver, is the base of ' the experiment. A wire and a telegrapher’s | key complete the fixtures. Already surgeons know the map of the ‘brain of man, so far as concerns the move- ments of limbs, tongue, Nps and the record- ‘ing of taste, smell and sight. But below | those convolutions of the brain lying close to the skull has been an unexplored depth of | gray matter, and in connection with {ft a lack of knowledge as to what portions of | this matter controlled certain organs and | sensations. | Proceeding on the acknowledged similarity | of the brain of a dog and of a man the sur- . } The heart dispenses blessings to the bones, geon went to work.

The pleasures and delights of good society ark the lovely people it brings us into contact our society people have drifted with are too precious to most of us not to fecl Annoyed at society’s enemies—I medan the extremists. The custom of late hours is an extreme which hundreds have consciousty or uncon- sciously grown into, which has neither sense nor value, doing no good to any and much harm to many, as the same pleasures could be just as fully enjoyed at other and proper hours. To say that it is an imported custom, that it is English or French, is no argument In its favor (although it is not carried to any such extent in England, and only the fast, sporting element keep late hours in Paris). But what has that to do with us? They probably arrange their amusements to suit their conditions, And are we such servile foliowers that we must imitate the customs of other countries to our own injury? Have We no sense of our own conditions, social, climatic, commercial or otherwise? Do we realize that our recreations are our own, or do we follow them up irrespective of their effects just because we think they are fashionable? If this is so we ought to pluck a feather from the eagle's wings. The_hour when an ordinary theater or opera party leaves the supper tables at the Waldorf, Delmonico’s or the Savoy is be- tween 12 and 1;30 o’clock in the morning. By allowing the participants an hour to reach home and retire they would probably get to sleep between 1 and 2:30 o’clock in the morning. The opening hour for a dance at a private house or at Sherry’s is from 10 to 12:30 o'clock, and the closing from 1:30 to 3 o'clock. By ajlowing an hour to get home and retire the dancers would probably get to eer . _ BOSTON, Deg, 13, Special Correspondence of the Sunday Post-Dispatch.

A new-rich woman gave an entertainmert last summer at Newport that began at 1 o'clock in the morning. Now, the permanent arising from such-~# perversion of nature are many and apparent. One evil is: It either drives the men out of out business. If the hours were proper they could enjoy their share of both and would be the better for it. The men who now attend duties at the hours I have mentioned mostly aged beaux, who have no business or occupation, probably waiting for some- body to die, and the callow youth, who has not finished college, or is looking for. some- thing to go into, society evils society or of on society's are The matron often wonders why there are not.more men between the ages of 25 and 35 in society. There are generally three women for every man at these ages. The incompatibility between the late hours of society and young men’s business makes it clear to men very early in their ca- reers that they must give up either one or the other. And I think it is a great misfor- tune to a man when he has te give up either. The life that is evenly divided be- tween business or profession and ennobling recreation is always the mor. noble life. All business makes a man crude—all pleas- ure makes a man stupid. Pleasure is for the person who has earned it by doing some- thing for himself, God or mankind—and that one most enjoys it. But to the man who does not earn it, pleasure becomes insipid and life a bore. The majority of young society men who enter business in this country are placed in positions which involve responsibility and work—and they must fill them properly if they hope for promotion, even if they have a relative ‘in the firm.” This calls for good health and a clear mind. Let any young man be up until 8 or 4 o'clock in the morn- ing three or four nights a week and have his desk, rolled up and be at work four or five miles from home at 8 or 8:30 in the morning and his nerves and brain will soon is the mother of three extredaly pretty children.

Special Correspondence of the Sunday Post-Dispatch (Copyrght, 1900.) HE linen is a part of his dress to which - the average man does not give the careful and particular attention that it should received. It is a fact that the majority of men who are very particular as to the quality of their cigars and the age of their wine’ will accept and wear shirts made of the coarsest fabrics and In- nocent of any knowledge of the verb “to fit.’’ Now, a shirt is a very hard garment to make. It must be cut and it must be fash- joned so that no uncomfortable wrinkles ex- ist, and so that the bosom will retain, under all clroumstances, its perfectiy flat and un- broken form. It is not necessary in these days of per- fected manufacturing establishments to go to the custom shirtmaker for a well-fitting shirt, The ready-made shirts fit the ordl- nary man, Manufacturers have studied arm lengths, chest seizes, al] the peculiar forms of shoulders and all the waist sizes for normal and reasonably normal man- kind, and they can even fit the malformed. One may readily get from the stock of any well conducted store a shirt that will give THE SPIKED-TAIL SHIRT. (The most recent improvement in shirts, It shows the skirts reduced to the. smallest possible size.) perfect satisfaction, not only in its mere fitting quality, but im its style. The manu- facturers follow the, custom makers very closely, ana there is little in the way of either style or fabric that the custom mak- er entirely monopolizes, Since the colored shirts came in we have drawn our best supplies from Scotland, Ths Scotch are the best weavers arma dyers of cotton goods in the world, although the strides made by the American weavers of shirtings have been wonderful, and in the STUDIES IN COLLARS i 7 Linen, Which Is a Great Part of a Man’s Dress, Discussed ty an Authority on the Subject and Hints Given. edge. The bosom also has hand-made but- tonholes and three-sixteenths of an inch stitchink. All the buttonholes of the gar- ment are hand made. The collar to go with the evening shirt should be squa>s and the stitching should be the sameas that on the shirt. The same shirt that Is worn tn the even- Ing is also worn with the afternoon dress; that is, every formal function which oc- curs during the daytime. Colored shirts are worn only with busi- ness dress. In colored shirts the stripes run up and down the bosom. There are very few of the cross-stripes sold, and fashion does not sanction them. There are several noteworthy improve- ments {n colored shirts which the layman may know nothing about. One of these ts the new form of shirtail. Instead of giving a man the full broad bow! shaped tail, the new shirt has a pointed tall; that ts, there is no superfluous cloth. The advantages of this polnted-tailed shirt are, that it gives a smoother front to the trousers. This is specially deasalrable tn evening dress, which is made of a light fabric and shows all the wrinkles of a big shirttall. The pointed tal! does away with this objection. Very few men study the collar question properly. Collars should fit the face as well as the neck. We mean by this that what is becoming for one style of face is not becoming to another. Take three dis- tinctive types of men—the very stout man with the double chin; the man of the Fred- eric Remington type, the high-cheeked, raw-boned “Yank,” and the average, full face, round-chin man, The stout man has a short neck; his chin is very full. Now, in order to bring the head well into the collar, and make one fit the other without any break, we must have a collar which flares in front and takes in the line of the chin. These collars are techni- cally termed ‘‘pokes.’’ They are of moderate width, and the width must, in every case, sult the height of the neck. A high collar on @ very stout man breaks in very Un- . graceful folds. The best form of turn-down collar for the stout man is that with a moderate height and a spaced front. The man with the long neck should wear a collar that just touches the jawbone. If he wears a poke or protruding point collar he exaggerates the length of his neck. The plain, straight standing collar, with yery slight front spacing, the collar that is known as the “just meeting” style, is best for the long neck. The collar that folds over in front is too much like a stovepipe. The long-necked man may also wear the high-banded turned-over collar, in widths varying from 2% to 2 %inches. If a man has a prominent Adam's apple he should never wear an open-front collar. It may be com- fortable, but it {s anything but sightly. The man with the full round chin, that is, the average man, is fortunate. He may onesie ee Dei OM Si ae et Oe ee ee ene question, last few years shirtings have been turned part of the evening wasted. The men ignor- ed such nonsense—and last summer dances were cut down to one a week—and very sparsely attended at that.

The remedy must not preclude the wear- ing of a veil, for so long as women know that veils will make them look prettier they will wear them, no matter if their eye- sight does suffer. Veils have their changes of styles quite as well as ali other parts of a. womans clothes. Many of us can remember when women wore thick green and brown and blue barege veils to protect. the complexion. They were followed by thinner silk and later these went out of favor, to allow richly wrought black lace ones their vogue. These were of the best thread lace variety, and were made long at first and hung down the side of the face and were and forth as liked, but soon the moon vedl, ught border, had nla ed After these came the whole inations in the way of meshes These, when over the face, fine with heavy other device: THE RAPS ONCS, bas Ix half lrawn ore with a wr them, of abom- dotted show a list and nets. mesh dots, spots or at ulated to and brings the e% Ss very less irregular dis- the defects more or enhance beauty hide its the = fine eveballs, ‘_- . s | strained aif Lances, Cal: of the eomplexion contrast. by mesh di- and it is This front o until the endurance.

It was her Sundey-go-to- meeting bonnet, and not always too clean, The elderly ones most often wear black ones, or else the age of the muslin has something to do with the tint, The Egyptian women swathed themselves with folds of black musiin and draw a ri- diculous looking thing up to thelr eyes and fasten it with what looks like a string of ylack spools, The Persian women wear a arge handkerchfef shape of mull thrown the desired effect over their heads to be left loose or pinned BO NE ieee at RI Ge: ia lias, SA, cena, Bete te: ee ‘ oe Pee “ ee i he we shal . ay Bi ea f 3 79 : ra ; HOW THE MESH OF VEILS WORN THIS YEAR CYEOIGHT out from our domestic looms which com- pare favorably in every respect with those from ‘“‘Bonnie Scotland.” There are two kinds of colored shirtings.

He married a Mexican wife, and they were perfectly contented to live in a shanty, to dress in vile rags and to cook their primitive meals over a fire built on the earth wherever they happened to be among the flocks in the mountains or valleys. To buy land, to have his flocks increase and to get mining properties for mere songs were Felix Doherty's sole ambition in life. He thought it a huge joke when Strangers took him for a poor tramp cow- puncher. He once went to Los Angeles on business and twice to E!] Paso. He went on horséback to Albuquerque three or four times a year. He used to sleep in the bales of hay in the corral with his horse when he was there. From a 10-cent meal he would go over to the National Bank and attend to his business involving several hundred thousand dollars. He was thrown from a horse last month and although he lay in agony for several days he declined to have a doctor called from Gallup.

Several times the bodies of Driscoll’s poor friends in the mines have been coffined and sent to relatives in the eastern states and even to Ireland at his expense. He has experienced all the prospector's poverty and hardships until he was past middle age, when he drifted down to the Calico mines, in San Bernardino County, Ca., in 1881. There he found a mine which he sold for $15,000, and he had his first cap- ital to deal with in mining on his: own hook. From Calico he came over into Ar- izona, and in two years he located a base ore mine—a chioride proposition, as miners say, of silver, gold and lead in combina- tion When silver was valuable his income used to be over $2000 a month. The Diana and Antrim mines were his. He invested his profits in the Harqua Hala mines and doubled his wealth in a few years. From that time he has been prospering to a de- gree undreamed of by him. But he has never changed his manner of living. He is over 60 and in fine health. Every day Fork, where he has valuable real No one wou'd believe, from his appearance, that he had property.

The week before he was to start on the long-discussed journey to Chicago President ¢ made his public declaration against the free coinage of silver. Driscoll's income would be cut down severa! thousand dollars a month by an anti-coinage law. So he abandoned his journey, feeling that he could not afford so expensive a tour at such a time.

M'LEAN The Fatal Illness Was A ae rs v Affection of the Heart, Following Upon the the Hostile Criti- cism Poured Upon Admiral Dewey and Her Favorite Daughter. WASHINGTON, Dec. 11. Special Correspondence of the Sunday Post-Dispatch. heart, RUSHED in spirit, broken in and. suffering from unremitting an- guish of mind and body, a patrician lady, once the proudest women in Wash- ington, died not many days ago. A year ago Mrs. Washington McLean was the stateliest figure in the social life of the capital. Fatigue, weakness of body, she did not recognize; Those who knew her as the proudest and wealthies of the city's elderly women could not but know that she was also the happiest—worshipped by her children, admired and loved by all her large circle of acquajntance. Last week, when she died from a malady which the physicians called “acute affec- tion of the heart,”’ a pitiful transformation had befallen her. Weakened, embittered, silenced, her only desire seemed to be the respite that death would bring. For three-score years and more Mrs. Me- Lean lived and mingeld with the world without knowing the bitterness of enmity or the humiliation of hostile criticism. That the occurrences which followed her favorite daughter's marriage to Admiral Dewey brought her, when she had just passed 70, the crue] knowledge that an in- dulgent fgte had so long spared her, is a fact not indirectly connected, her friends believe, with her sudden death. Recall the anecdotes, articles, tirades, refiecting unpleasantly upon Admiral or Mrs. Dewey, or both, that have appeared during the past year, Astonishingly fre- quent they have been, in view of the Ad- miral’s position as the “nation’s hero.”’ But the public that has permitted itself ‘this freedom of expression never suspected where the wounds it dealt struck deepest. Not in the Dewey household—though the admiral did blaze forth red-hot indignation and Mrs. Dewey did give reluctant expres- sion to her injured sensitiveness. But. so bitterly did this unkindness af- fect Mrs. Dewey’s mother, for a lifetime accustomed to reverence, that the mental depression her devoted daughters were so quick to notice was followed by serious physical illness from which she was never again to be free. Day by day the anguish that hostility had imposed upon the ‘proud old lady showed its effect in some fresh access of weakness. ‘Dear mother’s life is being crushed out,”’ lamented Mrs. Dewey a month ago. The daughter's eyes saw more clearly than those of any doctor. Last week, the last hope of recovery gone, this gentle life flickered for the last time, then faded alto- gether. From humiliation inflicted upon Mildred Dewey her mother could not re- cover. To understand the significance of this ca- tastrophe something must be known of the extraordinary ties that bound this unusual family. From her girlhood Mrs. McLean had been not only the crystallization of the qualities that make up a grande dame but the most lovable of women. Her husband, the late proprietor of the Cincinnati Enquirer, so adored the beautiful Kentucky girl that he ee fe ee What Is Wanted by the Head of the Roman Church Who Now Believes in the Vatican. éé HEN will the Italian people and W Christendom at large give ; back to the papacy its wonted dignity and liberty?’ is a question attract- ing the attention of the world. Archbishop Ireland, in recent sermons, says that it will be at no remote date. Rev. Father David 8. Phelan of Our Lady of Mount Carmel Catholic Church, 8333 Halis Ferry road, and editor of the Western Watchman, who its considered one of the leading authorities on Catholic law in this country, concurs in Archbishop Ireland's opinion. ; The archbishop, during the past summer, spent much time in conference with the Pope. It is quite generally believed that the Pope desires the restoration of his temporal power and that in delivering his | sermons predicting liberty for the pope at no remote date, Archbishop Ireland is only carrying out the wishes of Leo XIII. By REV. FATHER DAVID S$ PHELAN. NTIL 1870, the Pope had temporal [J power. Then Garibaldi and his sol- diers took Rome and invaded the papal states. Since then the Pope has been deprived of such power, exéept in the special territory over which he is assigned. Any offense committed in this territory is ‘the same as an offense commited against the King of Italy. The offender is tried by the Pope. Rome has two rulers, the King of Italy and the Pope claiming temporal rule. Good Catholics in Rome will not vote for candi- dates running for offices. Until 1870 there were three kingdoms tin Italy—the kingdom of Sardinia, the king- dom of Sicily and the kingdom of the pope- dom. Garibaldi changed this order of things. Temporal power means that the Pope shal! be a temporal ruler as well as the spiritu- al director. It has beep taken away from him oxcept as to the little city where his castie Fidardo is located outside Rome. The Italian troops never enter this terri- tory. The Pope is a temporal prince. Ger- many has her ambassadors at the Quintnal as well as at the Vatican, So has France. It is almost the unanimous opiniong of Catholics that the Pope should have tem- poral power. A great many people think that he should not, however. The Fope thinks he should have it. The Pope has not the necessary freedom as a civil authority. In case of war with Italy, should the Pope have temporal power his actions in matters pertaining to the| — eee eee remained her devoted lover and cavalier un- til his death. Socfety in all the cities in which she lived regarded her as its natural leader. Her three children have always looked up to their mother as to a queen. Nor was this pretty affection, natural to childhood, outgrown. ven so recently as a year ago, John R. McLean, business man, politician and man of the world, was never too occupied to pay his dally visit to the beautiful woman, slim and straight as a girl, who was chatelaine of the famous McLean mansion in Washing- ton. When business called him away, this devoted son would send a letter in place of his visit. Mrs. Dewey, then Mildred Hazen, and Mrs. Ludlow, wife of Rear-Admiral Ludlow, were constant, though truly friendly, rivals in their mother’s affection. Mrs. Dewey, as the younger, was usually held to be the favorite of the three. Indeed, in the years just preceding her marriage, Mrs. Hazen was her mother’s al- most inseparable companion. As Mrs. Mc- Lean had never become an “old’’ woman their tastes were almost identical. They ap- peared always together in public. At home their rooms were connected, and it grew to be Mrs. Hazen's morning habit to run into her mother’s apartment at the beginning of every day and take breakfast with her at her bedside. “I consider my mother the perfect type of ‘good breeding,’ Mildren Hazen had a way of saying with conviction. ‘‘No mother was ever so blessed inher daughters,’’ Mrs. McLean loved to assure her friends. Such was the situation when one day the Olympia was anchored outside New York, and Admiral Dewey, at that time the most popular man in the world, escaped as soon as he epuld from the noise and display and adulation that at ft beset him and quietly slipped away to Washington. The admiral was an old friend of the Mc- Lean family. Nobody thought it worth while to comment on the frequent visits that he paid. One evening, as Mrs. Dewey herself tells the story, the admiral, then in the full flower of his glory, begged her to share that glory by blessing his widower solitude. “I will,”’ gently yielded Mrs. Hazen, “if —if mamma can spare me. She is my first thought. I would not desert her for a world of husbands—not even for you.’’ Thus encouraged the admiral, who was no man to let so important a matter drag on unsettled, and who had already estab- lished an international reputation for promptness, was for submitting the ques- tion to Mrs. McLean on the spot. ‘But mamma has gone to her room,” mildly objected Mrs. Haze “Then you must call her out, my dear,’’ said the admiral. A moment later—‘‘the admiral must— must speak with you mamma,” called Mrs. Hazen from the top of the stairs, and the admiral who stopped at the first landing, waited till a stately woman in white silk and swansdown floated down to meet him, when he grasped both her hands.

Mother f Admiral Dewey's Wife ‘This dearest of women has promised to marry meé,’’ he gasped. ‘“Can you believe he “God bless you both,’’ cried Mrs. McLean, as she graciously Kissed the admiral on the cheek. “You are the first man,’’ she assured him, “except my husband and my sons that I have kissed‘in 50 years.”’ So Mildred Hazen married the admiral and they went to live in the unfortunate house that the nation had bestowed on terms that the sailor hero failed to understand. Indeed, the admiral, so mistaken as to fancy himself at liberty to do what he liked with his own property, laid it at the feet of the woman he loved best. Next day the news that the admiral had deeded the house to Mrs. Dewey aroused the nation toa keenness of criticism that has rarely been paralleled. Mrs. Dewey, too proud, under these cir- cumstances, to retain the gift, passed it on to Admiral Dewey's son. Once more sounded words of disapproval, not unmixed with personalities. The char- acter of Mrs. Dewey, her religious faith, her prophesied subjection of the admiral to Ro- man Catholic influence, were subjects dis- cussed with great freedom almost within hearing of the newly married pair. The admiral and Mrs. Dewey, chiefly con- cerned with their own happiness, were Spartanlike in their reception of this at- tack. The one who suffered was Mrs. McLean. Wounded in every fiber, she shrank more and more within herself at every blow of ee — EXPLAINED By Father Phelan. KR Himself a Prisoner troubles at issue would not be accepted as being prejudiced in favor of any one power. Without temporal power there would be a jealousy and all of his holiness’ decisions would be subjected to criticism and would be twisted and turned so that they would be made to appear in favor of the Italian government. As Archbishop Ireland has said, the Cath- olic church is a divinely-created organism, receiving its mission directly from Christ. Its supreme chief, the successor of Peter, expresses its life and mission, and all the rights inherent to the church belong in a pre-eminent manner to him. Therefore the Pope has a right to independence and as a consequence to temporal power. That he will have it restored to him be- fore long, I sincerely believe. BALTIMORE, Md., Dec. 14. Special Correspondence of the Sunday Post-Dispatch. IRECTOR O. L. FASSIG, of the Bal- [) timore station of the United States Weather Bureau, has just completed a comparative study of the relation be- tween summer heat and winter cold to determine the vexed question, if possible, as to whether there {fs any relation be- tween the heat of one and the cold of the other, a matter which at the present time is attracting some particular attention. Many interesting superstitions have been built upon weather conditions, and observ- ers have deducted various laws and lore by which phenomena can be antitipated or ac- counted for. A mooted question still, how- ever, is whether or not an extremely hot summer foretells a cold winter or the oppo- site, and present unusual conditions In lack of temperature in accord with the season has revived this discussion. Dr. Fassig has at his command an ac- curate daily record of weather in this city from 1817 to the present time. The interval from 1817 to 1836 1s filled with a private ——_ | COST OF UNCLE SAM'S SUMMER FUsnsses. an average temperature much higher than GErorcre DEWEY. OOF? — the public courage. Her grief was 80 over- whelming as utterly to demolish her power of resistance. That ‘Millie,’ her idol, should be made the target for such abuse was more than this sensitive woman could For once she felt helpless. Other criticisms followed. Mrs. Dewey’s social position, her conjectured jealousy, her alleged attempts to force herself to the front were; as everybody remembers, the occasion for considerable unpleasant gos- sip. So far as possible such criticism of her idolized daughter as was printed was with- held from Mrs. McLean. But in one way or another her acute intelligence was sure to seize the drift of popular feeling. She be- came almost clairvoyant in her perception of hostility. The knowledge of this has during the past year been the severest affliction that has befallen the naval hero and his wife. And what they consider to be the result of it—Mrs. McLean’s death last week—has endure. PHILADELPHIA, Dec. 13. LACK PEDRO, the pitiless pirate of Punta Arenas, has broken out again, according to the reports of mariners putting in here from the Straits of Magel- lan. | Punta Arenas, known to most sallors as Sandy Point, is one of the lonellest towns on earth. It stands in a bleak and desolate place, where gale follows gale, and there is no cultivable land. The town has 2000 inhabitants of the rankest border character—low-class Indians, Spaniards, stranded sailors and gold miners. Four years ago Black Pedro, a white man, was driven out of the town. He was about the toughest specimen to be found in the Antarctic Circle. He crossed the straits in a canoe and landed on the rocks of Terra del Fuego, where he took several squaws to. wife and settled down to lord it over a Fuegan village For some time nothing more was heard from him, and the governor, the Chilian port captain (Punta Arenas is a Chilian coaling station) and the citizens flattered themselves that Mr. Black Pedro was out of their lives for good. The peace lasted till one morning a bark came into Sandy Point short-handed, and reported that her longboat, which had been sent ashore for water in Famine Reach, only a few miles south of Punta Arenas, had been set on by a party of savages, led by a white man, who massacred the crew and seized the boat. An occasional massacre in the straits was not an occurrence calculated to excite either the officials or the resi- dents of Punta Arenas unduly. But the news that the band was led by a white man did. They all knew who it was. And they knew that there would be trouble. The trouble has been coming and keep- ing on a-coming ever since. Black Pedro is proving again to the world that no sav- age is one-half so bad as a bad white man ‘ean ba Under the renegade Spaniard the |'wretched, half-naked Terra del Fuegan ‘Indians, who once feared to attack a little ‘sail craft, have grown so bold that they |have not only attacked large steamships, ‘but actually have attempted to set a Chil- fan gunboat on fire. So regular have been attacks on ships passing through the straits that it is re- ported now from England that a move- ment is to be set on foot for united action by the shipping interests of all the world to bring pressure to bear on the Chilian government for better patrolling of the waters and guarantee of safety for pass- ing ships. As Chili has been patrolling the straits for many years with so little success that the Indians have not feared to attack vessels that He almost in the harbor of Punta Arenas, !t is not consid- ered probable that that government which asserts control of the states and Terra del Fuego will be able to satisfy the re- quirements soon.

And that opens the chance that Great Britain and the United States will have to step in and police the waters themselves. The United States would have taken drastic action long ago had it been pos- sible: without breach of international! com- ity. A steamship has to anchor in those waters frequently. Indeed, nearly every vessel an- chors at the approach of night if there is holding ground under the keel. And it is when the ships are thus at anchor that the cruel and hungry Terra del Fuegans swarm out In their canoes and make their attack. Until recently they have been hampered by the fact that their canoes are wretched apologies for craft, and that their only weapons are bows and arrows. But under the leadership of the renegade white man they have already obtained at least one seaworthy ship’s boat, and the great fear of the authorities now is that they may succeed in getting hold of rifles. Already Black Pedro has perfected their old style of communication from head- land to headland by fire signals. With this perfected system they have been able to send warnings of intended raids by the gunboats along the entire coast, so that by the time the naval men had begun their foray all the canoes had been hidder. To obtain and destroy the canoes is about the only way in which their depredations can be checked at present, in the absence of a strong naval force. No man dares to fol- low the savages into their rocky hiding places on the Land of Fire. It would mean sure death. Beaten off by a steamship crew, they re- sort to the next form of attack. They sud- denly extinguish all their fires and creep as closely as they dare to the vessel in the darkness. Then suddenly the air is full of burning brands, which they aim to throw into open ports and hatches, to set the ship on fire. It was in this way that they at- tacked the Chillan cruiser. She was lying at anchor in a cove not far from Famine Reach, riding out a storm, when the sav- ages paddled up astern and threw burning faggots through her stern ports into the officers’ quarters. The fire which started nearly burned the ship before it was extin- guished. The Chilian naval officers credit the act to the Spanish renegade. A favorite trick of the Indlans, when they see a vessel laboring heavily in one of the willlwaws and driving perilously near shore—something which is almost unavoid- able, as the passage is so narrow in places that the rocks almost meet on either hand —is to lurk on a precipice and shoot ar- rows at the steersman, in the gentle hope that they will kill or disable him, so that the ship will broach to and fal] away on the rocks. The steamboat Dolphin, which was known to all New Yorkers as a boat plying to the Fishing Banks, was attacked in the Straits on her way to the Klondike regions. A few weeks ago the Hamburg tramp steamer Herodot, a large vessel, reached her Pa- cific port with a story of having been sur- rounded by the savages and having had a running fight with them for a whole day and night. During the day the savages made frequent attempts to board. Several gangs managed to clamber on deck, where the sailors beat them back and drove them into the sea with hand- LED BY THE TERRIBLE BLACK EDRO HOLD MAGELLAN STRAITS cpikes and clubs. But In the night, a heavy snow squall, the canoes came out again, and the occupants began to fire ar rows at the ship. The crew was ordered te Ile close behind the bulwarks, and all hands thought for a time that the attack would cease as soon as the Indians saw the futility of their efforts. But the flight of arrows had been merely a blind. Suddenly burning brands of wood began to hurtle through the air, and both watches had to be called on deck to prevent the blaze from spreading. bs fight against fire lasted almost all hight. The most vivid and intimate recent ex- perience with the Terra del Fuegans (with the exception of the experience of those who have not lived to tell the tale) was that of Capt. Slocum of the Spray in his voyage around the world single-handed. He was warned most ‘earnestly by the Chilian naval officer, who is detailed as port captain in Punta Arenas, and was urged to wait till a gunboat should go through, as it could tow him and would protect him from the Indians. But he sailed alone, and had half a dozen narrow escapes. Less than 50 miles from Punta Arenas the signal fires of the Terra del Fuegans began to start on headland after headland as he sailed along. Before long canoes came in pursuit, and, under pre- tense of begging, the occupants tried to get close enough to board. Finally Capt. slo- cum fired a shot across the bow of the nearest, which turned out afterward to be that of Black Pedro. In Thieves’ Bay, an aptly named place, the captain had to anchor for a night. Following advice which had been given to him in Punta Arenas, he scattered carpet . tacks all over the deck before he turned in. About midnight he was awakened by howls of pain and just as he reached the deck he saw the last of the barefooted pirates jumping overboard. They had leaped right onto his tacks. ! On his second entrance into the Straits he found himself dogged near Cape For- ward by two well-manned canoes. The occupants were all armed with hows and arrows and spears. They were so flerce and so evidently determined to board that Slocum found it necessary to haul his anchor short, Just enough to break ground, and run for it, which he did. The next attack was made further on to- ward the entrance into the Pacific, in the lee of Great Charles Island. This band was led by Black Pedro. He managed to get on deck and tried in every possible way to catch Capt. Slocum off his guard, in which cage, it was evident, he intended to let him have it with the heavy spear which he carried. But the captain did not take his eyes from him or turn his back to hin or fail to keep the muzzles of a revolver and a repeating rifle pointed toward him. It was inhospitable, but effective. Mr. Black Pedro left in a hurry. But he did not give up the attempt to win the little ship. On the next night he was on hand again in the anchorage in Fortesque Bay, with a score of canoes filled with his com- rades. Again the rifle and the revolver kept them off. Here the Colombia of New York, a magnificent steamship, which has been lost since, anchored near the Spray and all night long she had to keep a watch on deck to prevent the daring thieves from boarding and looting her, big and heavily manned as she was. | Two days afterward, while sailing A heavy gale near Bonet Island, on which the surf was breaking with ‘thunder, signal fires suddenly sprang up everywhere and the next instant arrows came raining on deck. Luckily they did not strike the cap- tain, though two stuck quivering in the mast. — WINTER. record kept during those years by Captain Lewis Brantz, a Baltimore scientist of a century ago and among the first in the country to appreciate the value of complete daily weather records. Meantime, in 1831, the surgeon general's division of the war department inaugurated a system of daily weather records, and these as they were kept at Fort McHenry continue the record until the establishment of the United States Weatber Bureau, in 1871. From the daily and monthly records of maximum and minimum temperatures of this long period Dr. Fassig found the aver- age summer temperature to be 75 degrees and the average winter temperature to be 35 degrees, indicating, aside from the main purpose of the investigation, that Baltimore is blessed with a general temperature for both seasons of unusual excellence for gen- eral living purposes. The hormal temperatures were computed for each summer, and by comparing the In- dividual normals with this 82-year average it was readily observed whether the sum- mer had been excessively hot, that is, with the normal average for all of the years, of average temperature, or cool, according as the average temperature for each summer was higher, equa! to or lower than the average of all of the years. The following comparisons were, there- fore, made from which persons interested in the meteorologic conclusions that may be drawn with the relative heat of sum- mer as a premise, may judge as to the value of this premise in determining wheth- er winter will be mild or severe: There were 22 of the 82 summers which wefo warm, that is, had an average temper- ature exceeding the average temperature of 7 degrees established for the sum of the summers. Of these 22 warm summers 8 were followed by warm winters, ll were followed by cold winters, 3 were followed by winters of average temperature—that I!s, that the individual winter average was within a degree of the entire period average of 35 degrees. Of the 82 summers 26 were cool—that Is, the average temperatures of each of them was appreciably below the average of 75 degrees, the average of all. Of these °6 cool summers 12 were followed by cold win- ters: 10 were followed by warm winters and 4 were followed by winters of average temperature, Of the 82 summers, 3% were of average temperature—that is, that the average tem- perature of each was within a degree of the average of 75 degrees for all. Of these 44 summers of average temperature, 14 were followed by warm winters, 17 were followed by cold winters and three were followed by winters of average cold. Dr. Fassig gives these figures as a basis for judgment of this matter without ex- pressing an opinion. It would seem, how- ever, that a study of the summer and win- ter seasons through a period of 82 years develops little beyond the fact that win- ters, as a rule, are to be expected to be colder than the summer. How much colder, or whether the nature of the summer gives a clew to the solution of this interesting question, is not determined. The record ia entirely noncommittal, so far as Baltimore is concerned, at least. In each case there is practically as much reason to argue that a cold winter will follow a hot summer as that a mild winter will follow a hot sum- mer. It would seem that there !s more dispos!l- tion on the part of summer to be cool, or of an average intensity, than to be exces- sively hot, since but 22 in 82 have developed excessive heat, while in greater proportion the tendency of winter has been to be cold, SERVANTS AND PENSIONERS FOR A YEAR.

This would indicate that there were 18 excessively cold winters, which condition could not possibly have been traced to the excessive heat of the summer preceding. The excessively warm summers have had stress laid upon them as indicating some- thing of the nature of the succeeding sea- son, and yet in a record of 22 excessively hot summers in 82 it would seem that the winter's lot fell all but evenly either way, with but 11 cold winters, as compared with eight mild ones, while three were normal. Little is said about the prophetic proper- * ties of cool summers, but they maintain the even division which the comparison of hot summers with succeeding winters is shown above to yleld. Indeed, from any stand- point it can be readily seen that the seasons have each an individuality without refer- ence to what has beén or what Is to come, and, from these figures, at least, there is little comfort for those of either side of the argument that one season holds the secret of the next. BENEFIT OF PUREFOOD LAW HE General Assembly of Kentucky re- T cently enacted a law providing for the inspection of food products sold in that state and intrusted the work to the agricultural experiment station. The sta- tion submitted a report showing that fully 40 per cent of all samples of food taken were adulterated. Some of the adulterants used are injurious to health; others have been put in to cheapen articles of food. As ex- amples of the former, the inspectors found so-called ‘fruit jellies’ made wholly or in part of glue and artificial coloring and fa* voring matters. They found salicylic acid, sometimes in large quantities, in tomato catsups, pre- serves and other food products which were sold as pure, and formaldehyde and other preservatives in milk, which, perhaps, im. some cases was fed to infants. The most striking example of alj ts in the case of es- sence of peppermint and essence of cinna- mon. These extracts contained wood alco-= hol, a poisonous substance, as one of the in- gredients. In the preparation of these es-< sences a mixture of wood alcohol and come- mon alcohol was used in place of common alcohol, presumably to avold the govern- ment tax on alcohol. OLDEST TREE ON EARTH.

Gosh, but that was a picnic! Say, I have laid awake nights, sleep- ing and waking alternately under the stars, and when I would think of that woman on that night I have laughed so the wolves would be scared. “You see, it was about the time those. india-rubber bath cabinets were invented, and she had one of them. They said she used to take a home-made Turkish bath four times a day.

She took the lozenge just be fore she got up to sing, and I can remember her first words right this minute. So with tears in her eyes: she sang ‘A chargé to keep I have- whoosh!’ and she tried to cool , her’. parched tongue, but she needed a piece of ice. “Then, as she kept singing, hotter and hotter, I looked at the tenor, and he was standing up, the chair fas- tened to his trousers with the shoe- maker’s wax, and he holding the chair with one hand and all the choir laughing pnd trying to look as though they were not tickled, and the congregation” womlering what it was all about. Oh, but didn’t the eyes’ of that soprano snap and sparkle and ‘look damp, and didnt her face get red and purple as she warbled that cayenne-pepper solo, and didn’t that tenor look pale and wonder if his suspenders could hold out faithful to the end of that hymn. And when it was over and they bowed their heads while the minister pronounced the benediction, didn’t they lopk around out of the corners of their eyes for papa’s little boy, and didn’t they dis- cover him looking at his Sunday- school lesson, as immocent as a cherub.
