It is not Christian, for you Know that the Gospel of Christ is a Gospel of persuasion, and not of physical force and battle; that tt ts directed force to overcome and invoked of peace, to the heart and to the intellect; that it seeks by better the sin and evil tendencies of the world. It was Mahomet who the sword; it was he who laid down the doctrine of total abstinence. No Mohammedan is allowed to taste alcohol in any form, The teaching of the Scripture is that ‘‘a little wine is good for the stom- ach’s sake,’ and at the wedding feast Christ turned the water into wine. I ask myself if you had been at the feast, would you have broken the jars of wine and the wedding goblets and ornaments with your “hatchet?” that “if we go out and crash and smash the Lord will see that we > ’ Did Uhrist pursue this method?

OUND TOMBS Ur A LOST RACE - — ee | Scientist’s Discoveries on the Northwestern Coast. GRAVES NEAR THE PACIFIC INDIAN PEOPLE OF WHOM NOTH- ING IS ENOWN. Prof. Smith Reveals the Secret of Heaps of Stones in British Co- lumbia and Wash- ington. SEATTLE, Wash., March 2.—British Col- umbia and the State of Washington have for some years been favorite .exploring grounds of ethnologists who are coliecting material about the Indians. Among other things noted in this region have been heaps of rocks of vary- ing size, for which the explorers could find no adequate explanation. Some considered them to be freaks of geological upheaval, while others believed that the present Indian inhabitants had piled them up for some ceremonial purpose, though the Indians deny any knowledge of them: Last summer Prof. Harlan I. Smith of the Jesup North Pacific Expedition tore apart a number of these mounds, and the result is an interesting and valuable addi- tion to American ethnology. Every mound explored by Prof. Smith was found to be a tomb in which had been buried an individual of a race whose history is an entire blank, whose very existence had pre- viously been unknown to ethnoiogisis i nis Style of burial is not known in the earliest records of any of the northwestern coast peoples. One of the unusual and puzzling features of the discovery is the fact that the explor- ers have not been able to cull from the stone sepulchers a single definite fact as to the identity of the race now vanished from the face of the earth. No architectural remains or ruins were found which might have been inhabited by these people, and the Indians who today inhabit that region have no tra- ditions or legends regarding them. Prof. Smith believes that the race was of a lower The excavations began in the southeastern part of Vancouver Island, B. C., and in the form of civilization than the cliff dwellers or mound builders, and that it was beyond question extinct long before the advent of the whites. San Juan group and Whidbey Islands, state of Washington. A whole series of the mas- sive stone tombs, each containing a single skeleton, were found. Some of the skeletons were in a state of good preservation; others were all but disintegrated. The great num- ber of the burial places, extending well down into the state of Washington, indicate that at one time the race that practiced this form of sepulcher must have been numeri- cally strong and politically powerful. Prof. Smith spent three months of last Summer in uncovering and examining some hundreds of these old burial places, which had escaped the serious attention of previ- ous investigators. He thus describes these ancient tombs, which are technically termed cairns. ; “They are from 6 to 25 feet in diameter and generally consist of an irregular pile of boulders, many of which are of huge size, weighing several tons, and rec ulring the strength of four men with crowbars to dis- lodge them. These structures are usually &ituated on slopes with gravelly soil, strewn with angular boulders. They overlook, and in most cases are near, the sea, and ’the raves in each group are about 20 feet apart. hey are usually-Jocated within a mile or 80 of shell leaps. As these latter are very numerous all along the coast, their proxim- ity is thought to imply probably a blstorionl relation between the two kinds of struc- pares. One stone tomb is found over each ody. “The entrance is composed of a more or less rectangular opening, formed by placing the straightest side of several boulders in- ward, and covering the opening thus formed with two or more slab-shaped rocks of like character. In some cases the vault is not well formed, and in other instances the cov- er stones are so small that they do not form a projecting roof over the body. Over this vault-like opening the rough pile of the tomb is reared. “It is frequently bounded by a single row of large stones, while the filling between this wall and the vault is of small frag- ments, boulders, and in some cases lar rs of soil or mixture of these materials... Rec- tangular tombs have been found where the outer row of rocks have been carried up so as to form a retaining wall, making the whole structure similar to a _ truncated pyramid. “Structures were also found In which the body was placed at the side of a large boul- der and covered with smaller ones piled up against tiv ‘arge rocks. The stones form- ing the tinierfor sepulcher and those of the outer row ext often imbedded deep in the soil around the grave. It is probable that they were not so placed in the beginning, but sank to this position by reason of their large size and great weight. “The position of the skeletons shows that the body was placed on the side and was deposited either on the original surface or in a shallow hole dug into the gravel below. In some of the graves the skeletons were found sunk ‘four feet and greatly decayed. In many complete skeletons were secured. Some of the skeletons were partlv burned, but it was thought that the burning did not take place in the grave."’ The greatest number of these tombs were _—— ~—_—— Lovely Complexion Free.

Special to the Post-Dispatch. JOPLIN, Mo., March 2.--The most tmpor- tant local railroad enterprise undertaken for years in this section is the construction of the Mineral Cities Electric Railway, on which the grade work has just been siaried. The new line will have a total trackage of 60 miles and will connect the important towns in the Kansas coal region with the mineral cities of southwest Missouri and southeast Kansas. The road is being constructed ostensibly for passenger business only, but it ts gen- erally belleved that the promoters contem- plate doing a freight business as well, as the excessive rate of 60 cents per ton for hauling coal a distance of 28 to 30 miles from the coal flelds of Kansas to the mines of Joplin has long been a bone of conten- tion between the miners and manufacturers of Joplin and the existing roads and has been a serious obstacle to the location of manufacturing enterprises at this point. The road is incorporated with a capital of $500,000 and the officers are Clarence M. Busch of Atlantic City, N. J., president; Benjamin H. Warren of West Chester, ra., secretary, and Capt. F. N.. Moore of Jop- lin, treasurer and general manager. The stockholders are the gentlemen mentioned and Hon. John-H. ‘Tayior. Guy G. Farwell, George A. Case, all of Joplin, and Col. John N.

The company has been granted a 50 years franchise on very favorable terms by the city councils of Joplin, Mo., and Galena, Kan., and they have secured the right of way for the entire line. The contract for the first section of the grading has been let to a local firm and a large force of men is now at work west of the city under the personal supervision of Capt. Moore. The cars will be of the latest type and will be equipped with powerful motors which will make them capable of a speed of 40 miles an hour, while the interior fittings will be of the most luxurious kind. C. M. Busch, the president of the road, was in Joplin &@ few weeks ago and. after inspect- ing the system of the Southwest Missouri Electric ailway, said it was the best equipped and operated that he had seen in any city in the country and that his road would be forced to put on an even better equipment in order to compete successfully with the old road between Joplin and Ga- lena. The Mineral Cities road will be a competi- tor of the Southwest Missourl road only be- tween Joplin and that point, as the local service of the old road in the city of Joplin is confined entirely to Main street, whereas, the new road crosses the city from east to west and runs north and south for several miles on streets which the old system does not cover. The distance between the principal towns on the line is as follows: Joplin to Galena, six miles; Joplin to Baxter ge, 17 miles; Joplin to Columbus, 26 miles; Joplin to Pittsburg, 29 miles; Pittsburg to Weir City, 10 miles. Under the terms of the fran- chise granted them, the company must have the first line completed and in opera- tion before the ist of November, but it is their intention to have cars running long before that time if they are not disap- pointed in the delivery of rails and rolling stock. WED BROTHER'S SLAYER TWICE Mrs. Louisa Gaines Marries the Hus- band From Whom the Court Separated Her. NEW ALBANY, Ind., March 2.—Divorced and separated for more than four years. Mrs. Louisa B. Gaines has remarried her husband, who killed her brother. Louisa B.. Kock, a beautiful girl a mem- ber of one of. Indiana's prominent families and heiress to $200,000, married William B. Gaines, of Sherman, Tex., several years ago. They started on a married life which was ideal. Two children were born, a boy and a girl. Two years after their marriage they decided to go to Te~as to live—her father having moved there. Upon their arrival at She-man, they learned that her father, who was living with her brother, had died suddenly. Then came the settling up of the estate. The will of Mrs. Gaines's Tasher was con- tested by Gaines, who said that his wife had not been fairly dealt with. He believ- ed that her brother, Charles Kock, had zon, Compan lo. «ys Sullivan, ‘aids, serious Battery influenced his father. In a quarrel Gaines shot and killed Charles Kock in the Court room at Sherman, Tex. Gaines was tried for murder, and after a long trial in which Mrs. Gaines spent most of her ,000 in her defense, he was sen- tenced to prison for life. She returned to this city and obtained a divorce, the court giving her the children. A few months ago she employed an attor- ney in defense of her former husband. The case was taken before the Texas Supreine Court and a new trial was granted. Dur- ing his brief freedom Gaines had written to his former wife and pleaded for a re- union with his family. rs. Gaines, with her two children, went to Sherman, and «& — marriage took place in the county Mrs. Gaines and her friends people are Spiritualists. She went to a “medium” tn Louisville, who told her that she had a communication with her brother, who veri- fied Gaines's self-defense plea. It is thought that Gaines will be aqult- ted on his sevond trial. MACARTHUR’S CASUALTY LIST. WASHINGTON, March 2.—Gen.

A trial will con- vince any one. In taking Swamp-Root you afford natural help to nature, for Swamp- Root is the most perfect healer and gentle aid to the kidneys that is known to medical science.

St. Louis, Mo., Aug. 16, 1900. To Readers of The Sunday Post- Dispatch: For the past two years I have been employed by the Gill Bros. Grocery Company of this city. My hours of employment were long and very irregular, causing me to eat my meals early one day and per- haps late the next. This constant changing of meal-time, together with always bolting my food when I did eat, soon brought on indiges- tion. I could keep very little food on my stomach, and that which -] could was not properly digested. Upon the advice of a friend, Mr. Hayden Bishop, I commenced to use Swamp-Root. Af first I noticed no change, but now I am free from attacks of indigestion. My skin is rapidly taking color and I am rid of a lot of pimples, which I was for- merly unable to drive away.

Cthers Relate to Court Costs, Taxation, Corporation Regulation, Schools, 7 Juries and Arbitfation. 9 JEFFERSON CITY, Mo., March 2 Nearly 900 bills have been presented to the Forty-first Missouri General Assembly for consideration up to this time. In many in- stances the House measures have been du- plicates of those introduced in the Senate and vice versa, so that on the whole the volume of proposed law-making is not great. Fach bill enjoys a certain life. It may be 12 hours or 60 days, and again it may slumber for an entire session and bob up two years hence. One fortunate to enjoy a legislative mem- bership may suggest a law to build a tram- way to the moon, or, like Senator Tandy, introduce a bill to prevent any person own- ing more than a certain number of dogs. or, like Representative Murphy of t. Louls, submit a measure to prevent per- sons riding on sleeping cars with their boots on, and the title will be read, the bill laid over a day or two, read a second time and then referred to committee, where, of course, it will receive a dignified burial. If the bill has merit the committee may @iscuss it for several days, and before the assembly has an opportunity to pass on it finally, two or three weeks will have passed... It is the process required in se- curing the passage of the bill that causes the delay. The most important measure which the Legislature has passed and to which the governor has affixed his signature, is that pertaining to agreements between attorneys and clients. It provides briefly that where a person contemplates an action at law against any corporation or individual to satisfy a claim and secures the services of an at- torney, he cannot compromise the claim, without assuming liability of a counter- claim on the part of a lawyer, with whoin of course it must be shown that a contract existed. Supporters of the bill maintained that thousands of persons have damage suits nst corporations and through the rep- resentations of claim agents are led to settle for a paltry sum. This law is cal- culated to seriously affect the business of aim agents. ay San. 94, Gov. Dockery approved the firet bill passed which provided for the appropriation of $10,000 to relieve the small- pox danger throughout the state. He did not hear from the Legislature again until Feb. 15, when he signed Senate bill No. 17, repealing that section of the statutes relating to cost in criminal cases. Heretofore it was the rule to pay criminal costs into the criminal cost fund, but the new bill specifies that these moneys shall be devoted to the school fund.

NATION. : (CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1). (Que ee ——— Eee of medium tlength, not abundant, and is “done up” neatly but plainly at the back of head, gathered toward the top. The ir-dressing is raerely elementary, and it is concealed when.she is dressed for the street by one of those dinky little bonnets which the elderly lady of this section, and possibly of this planet, wears. It is one of those glack scoops, inverted, with one end cut off, and is tied under the chin with narrow etrings which oaroey admit of a bow. In fact, there are no frills and furbelows any- where on Mrs. Nation. She @vears a black dress which might have cost 7 cents a yard and is well made u There is not a fleck of lace or a bit of embroidery anywhere to relieve the ebon wmrea of the dress, both skirt and waist ing of the same material, a warm-looking orsted. Not a pocket is,visible, of course, Mrs. Nation’s shoes are of medium size, ut enough to walk without peril over Broken bottles, but in no way suggesting the Seven-Leagued Boots. The only other visible article of apparel] to be listed is a ttle gray shawl which she throws over her ead and shoulders when she goes out. The crusader is of medium height. She is not a large woman despite the reporters’ descriptions. If she weighs 160 pounds she is in fighting trim. HER MIGHTY HATCHET HAND. The hand that wields the hatchet is in- teresting. It is an abundant hand, a hand that has Spopped many a stick of kindling wood on the Oklahoma claim and decapl- ted many a spring chicken. It ts a fine, hatchet hand. “I came right out of my kitchen,” said Mrs. Nation, “‘right from washing dishes aw cooking dinners, to do the Lord’s work. didn't do any preparing. The Lord pre- pared me."’ It is Mrs. Nation's face that compels the losest study. The face is broad, yet not ull. There is nothing scrawny about it, yet there is a suggestion of an incomplete- ness. One might call it a concave face and t miss the mark. The chin protrudes. ® nose is of a certain expansive flatness that calls up the word puggy. Sometimes k of eyes being ‘‘set back.’’ That describes Mrs. Nation's nose, for the promi- ence of her chin and her forehead leaves r nose in the background. The lower part of the face appears much broader than the uppér part, A quad- le drawn from the edges of the jaws to the sides of her head would fal! far short of the rectangular shape. ® mouth is the distinguishing feature. is plenty of it, and it spreads broad- ly in the smile which: seems to be habitual with Mrs. Nation when she is pleased. The Smile, in fact, lays claim to the entire face. ven the small ears, standing out from the , Seem to join in the grin. The white upper teeth become visible, showing a miss- ing link in the tvories at the left side. rs. Nation's eyes are black and piercing. n ey are unusually smal! and well set bac the forehead. When she reads she wears gold-rimmed spectacles, but when she talks she holds the glasses in her hands. There is nothing strident in the crusader's ce. It is low and not unmusical. There fin a slight huskiness in it. It bas a gut- tural quality, as though it comes from far down the throat. The voice is much alike in repose and in action. THE CRUSADER IN ACTION. I had an opportunity to see the crusader in action, for during one of our interviews her Peoria manager, W. A. Brubaker, came in and began to discuss the lecture to be given that night by Mrs. Nation. Quickly the crusader changed from her talk of hearing the voice at night to a shrewd business confab with Mr. Brubaker. I want it understood that I am to have all the receipts."’ she said. “Why, Mrs. Nation,’’ returned her man- ager, ‘‘your contract calls for $50. You——’’ l want it understood,” she said, ‘‘that nobody here shall make any money out of this trip. Is somebody trying to make mon- ey out of me?” and she shook her finger at r. Brubaker. When Mrs. Nation, in answer to a direct question, said she believed she was divincly commissioned to wipe out the liquor traffic and told about the voice in the night. asked her if she were not something of a spiritualist. She replied: os vhat, a medium? No, indeed; I say that’s all witchcraft; that’s what it is. Why, those people are cursed. My mother once attended a seance and she was cursed for it and died in an insane asylum. I at- tended one and I was cursed. I know it. Down in Oklahoma they had a spiritualist Seance, and I broke it up. I just went in and told them they were all devils, and they scattered. You couldn’t find one of them left. Why, I wouldn't trust a spiritualist einer than I could throw a calf by its Mrs. Nation laughed at her homely figure of speech. I laughed, too. It was a laugh- ing matter, to hear her say it. She rapidly returned to a good humor. “I’m sorry for my poor, bad brothers in the liquor business,” she said. ‘They are in darkness. They don’t know how wrong they are. They can't see. But I make this prediction, and you mark my words: “These very men whom I oppose now, and whose places I smash with my hatchet, will my best friends yet. I may not live to see them all come over’to me, but I tell you,”’ here Mrs. Nation grew raptly enthusiastic; “I tell you that these men whose saloons I am smashing will build a monument to Carrie Nation!’’ This added a clincher to the argument that Carrie Nation believes in erself. Leaving aside the legal aspect of her case, the propriety of it, the effect of it on the liquor traffic and oh society in general, one cannot help but believe that this woman is throughly in earnest and that she is not oing to die out, like the bicycle craze, un- ess she takes a header which lands her in the ditch too badly disfigured to keep going. And the only sort of header that will effectually disarm Mrs. Nation of her hatchet is physical restraint, for her will is to smash saloons, and that’s Carrie Nation's way. MRS. NATION’S OWN STORY. Special to the Post-Dispatch. PEORIA, IIL, March 2.—In her edition of the Peoria newspaper, which she edited for one day, Mrs. Nation told why and how she began her first crusade. It fol- lows in her own words: “I had for some time asked my God to show me what I could do to help him drive the rum devil from my own county, where I exhausted every (to me) known means to shut up the dives. When I first came to Medicine Lodge there were seven ete ee CURES WEAK MEN FREE, Send Name and Address Today----You Can Have it Free and Be Strong and Vigorous for Life.

The young man is a ball player of some local note, and has played with several semi-professional teams. An elder brother, Charles Taylor, is an engineer on one of the railroads run- ning out of Kansas City, and a married sis- ter is the wife of Eugene Ashton of the insurance patrol. Laid in Wait for Three Days. Taylor rented the room from which he fired the fatal shots three days ago. He told the proprietor of the house that he was a night operator at the Union Depot, but during the @aylight hours, when he was supposed to be asleep, he was lying, like a panther looking for prey, back of a lace curtain watching for Miss Nollard, who usually passed down Ninth street on her way to town. Taylor did not shoot opposite his window, as her sister, Louise, was in the way. He waited until she had passed at least 50 feet beyond the window, thus bringing her into range. Then he poked the rifie through the lace curtain and fired deliberately and with deadly atm. A dozen street car men engaged in switch- ing cars at Ninth and Washington were witnesses of the murder. In the security of the jail Taylor became as cool as if he were in his own bedroom. Prosecutor Hadley questioned him and the answers came freely. Taylor leaned back in his chair, his well polished shoes cocked up on the iron grating. In his mouth he had a quid of tobacco. “When did you decide to kill her?” Threatened to kill or blind me.

(CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1). - Monday morning to permit a clear path for the President from the White House to the Capitol. He will be escorted by all the ular troops. The cadets from West Point and Annapolis will not reach town until tomorrow evening. They, too, will form a portion of the President’s escort. The West Pointers in their gray uniforms will be a relief from the solid battalions of blue, for there seems to be a general understanding that not only all the regulars but even all the national guardsmen shall * wear their blue service uniforms. OLD VETERANS WIN. Today orders were issued assigning the war veterans the right of line. President McKinley and Grand Marshal Francis V. Greene were compelled to yield to the veterans. It was originally intended that they should occupy fourth place in the line of march. They demanded the right to es- eort the President and when this was re- fused Gen. D. BE.

The parade will number about Of these 20,000 will be military Forty years ago the parade 12,000 men in the military division and 16,000 in the civic division. THE COURT OF HONOR. “The court of honor in front of the White House was illuminated tonight. On _ the top of each column Is a sphere about a foot in diameter. There are 25 electric bulbs on each sphere which with others around capitals of the columns afforded a vel and pleasing effect. All of the Iil- Minating has been fully tested and the cles to be. used in causing smoke to e from the summits of the eight colos- pylons have arrived. e inaugural court of honor is some- t more solidly constructed than the one ch was built for the Grand Army of Republic in Michigan avenue, Chicago. the Washington court is smaller and more ornamental. It extends in Penn- ania avenue, 200 feet wide, three blocks, the first block, going west, is situated Treasury building. Between the next streets, on the same side, are the White uee and its grounds, and the next bloc«, the same side, is occupied entirely by he handsome State, War and Navy bulld- On each side of the court are grand ds, roofed, and as solidly built as if iy were for a permanent race track. ¢ stands are built across streets, on Vebant lots and in corners of ground, so not to hide the great public buildings or park. There are eight great pylons the court, fluted, with great iron bowls ere crests, and painted white.

Its ceiling is nearly four stories feet in diameter rise to the roof. Balconies extend around the room at each floor and in the center is a little lake. This great apartment has been transformed into a giimpse of fairyland for the famous quad- rennial crush, the inaugural ball. There will be gold-draped ceilings and walls and towering pillars ablaze with electric lights. All this will be but a background for the finest floral decorations ever seen in Wash- ington. Great American beauty rose bushes have for weeks been developing buds which will burst into bloom at the inaugural ball. | « And there will be orchids, pink, red and white carnations, lillies of the valley, mig- nonette, hyacinths, Haster lilies, crocuses, callas, maiden-hair ferns, smilax and fol- iage plants, crimson trailing roses, azaleas and Peautiful palms. The President's room will be the surprise of the ball. Its floral decoration is kept a secret strictly, and it is expected to be the richest bowe~ of beauty ever created for such an event. Theee arches at the west end of the great room will be hung with red plush to mark the entrance to the President's chamber. In front of them will be a balcony for the President's party. Opposite the Prest- dent's balcony will be another, hidden with foliage, and in it the Marine Band, wearing red coats, will be stationed. A sounding board will help te distribute their music. A long, low bungalow or one-story lean- to has been built at the side of the Pen- sion building for the banquet. There will be seats for 4000 and the price for the 14-course dinner will be $1, making the cost of ball ticket and dinner $6 éach person. CAPITOL A GREAT ATTRACTION. The capitol has been the attraction all day. From 9 o'clock this morning till 10 o'clock this evening the corridors have been crowded, the galleries jammed and the rotunda and statuary hall packed with visitors. Both Senate and House are tonight and the capitol guides are crowds of ecurrying, open-mouth visitors past the various points vf intérest In the building, pointing out any heavy, smooth- shaven man who may happen along as Senator Hanna, showing Vest and Cockrell and Spooner and Fair and Platt and Hen- derzon and Richardson and Payne and Dalzell if they happen to be in their seats or giving these aistinguished statesmen any other proxy in sight. The visitors are welcomed with open arms to the Senate and House restaurants. The doorkeepers are harried beyond en- durance by the American citizen and: his family who pays taxes and has a “right” to go in and. se the legislators at work. Thousands of people have visited the in- in . session piloting : } ’ : ’ ) resident were driven ' : the half-starved. blood: ; : | beautifully decorated. ‘fons of white, attractively finished on their augural stand on the east front of the capitol and stood where the President will stand on Monday when he takes the oath of office. The Congressional Library has had more visitors than any other public building, ex- cept the capitol. The hotels have trebled their rates, The hotel men admit it and ask: ‘‘What are you going to do aboue it?’ Every hotel is crowded to the roof. At one hotel a $5 a day room ‘osts $20 a day, and others in proportion. The inn keepers make the guest take his room for five days also. Boarding house keeepers have not made such great advances and are filling up their rooms rapidly. Wagon loads or cots have been going through the streets all day. Wach cot means at least $2 a ni e person who lets it. The in- auguration committee has a rooming agency where visitors can get good rooms at faig prices, but if the \isitor wants to be in a hotel or in the center of the city he must pay for the privilege. The saloon men will profit less than the others for on Sunday they can do very little Business. They are not discouraged, however, and have put in extended bars and hired extra bartenders. The same sort of preparations for reap- ing the greenback harvest are everywhere. If anv visitor gets away with money in his pocket it will not be be- cause there has been a united and power- ful effort to induce him to leave it here. CLEVELAND’S INOVATION. Mr. Cleveland was the first -make an innovation in the tnaugural ex- ercises. Before his second inauguration the President on his return from the Capitol was driven to the White House by way of the street leading from Pennsylvania avenue at the south end of the treasury department to the White House lot. After Mr. Cleve- land's second inauguration he and the vice- back to the White ouse over the same Course as that taken on their way to the Capitol. This enabled the occupants of the grand stand opposite the White House to see the President before and after inauguration. The arrangement for Monday is over the | Same course, but this time the President will pass through a court of honor which extends along Pennsylvania avenue the state department to the treasury depart- ment. The route is the same as that taken by his predecessors, except that it is now The viewing pavil- fronts and decorated with evergreen vine, are of uniform size and ornamented pre- cisely alike a: ' srranged symmetrically at the four ext:;: .tles of the court without being permitteu to intrude upon it. Wooden framework, partially painted and partially covered with white sheeting is the only material; but the lines are good and the Suggestion is of tooled marble. The march from the court of honor will pi as on previous occasions. GROWTH OF CUSTOMS. ‘Twenty-four men have beeh president of United States. Eight were re-electd. oo "were hone from its floor and mighty pillars several | ee i es es hi Rite | officially declared the taking of the oath of | office is the only essential thing required by the constitution preliminary: to tering upon his duties. Around this essen- orate ceremonies of modern inaugurations ' have been built, not in pursuance of law, | but of fashion and custom. However grand and interesting they may be, from a legal standpoint these ceremonies are all ‘‘leathre and prunella.’’ The essential thing, the oath, as prescribed by the constitution, is simplicity its®if. It is merely this: I do solemnly ewear that I will faithfully execute the office of President of the United States and will to the beet of my ~via J pre- , protect and defend the constitution of ecrve the United States, TAKING THE OATH. This is the form used by all of our Presti- dents and it will be used by President Mc- Kinley next Monday. Curiously enough, there is no rule determining whether the oath or the inaugural address shall come first. This is left to the fancy or the taste of the individual. Some of our Presidents have preferred to take the oath first, others last, and some have tried it both ways on being afforded opportunity through a re- election. Illustrious examples have dignified both methods. In twelve instances the oath has been taken before the delivery of the inaugural address, and in fifteen instances the inaugural has preceded the taking of the oath. In a single notable case, that of Will- iam Henry Harrison, both methods were dis- carded, or rather an ingenious way was found to effect a compromise between them. He began with his address and almost fin- ished it, when, breaking off short before uttering the last paragraph, he took the oath and then concluded his address. Those who took the oath before delivering the ad- dress were Washington, Monroe, Jackson (second inauguration), Pierce, Lincoln (sec- ond inauguration), Grant, Garfield, Benja- min Harrison and McKinley. PLACES FOR DIPLOMATS. The usual controversy concerning the diplomatic corps and their place at the in- auguration ceremonies is afoot. The local committee insists upon recog- nizing the diplomats resident in Washing- ton as a homogenous whole, with the am- bassadors at the head. The fact is the corps is composed of two distinct bodies. One is the ambassadors, representing the personality of their sovereign, the other is the ministers or envoys extraordinary, who represent governments.. According to dip- lomatic usnge a minister is of lower grade and dignity. Ambassadors are esteemed to enjoy such a close relationship with the sovereign who accredits them that they stand in the shoes of the President, Em- peror or King whom they represent. Any diminution of their dignity, any assign- ment to a post lower than that next to the sovereign of the land, is deemed a slight, not to themselves, but to the ma- jesty of the sovereign they represent. The question has arisen because the joint committee has assigned the ambassadors to a place of honor below the justices of the Supreme Court. Two days ago the secretary of state inclosed a letter from Lord Pauncefote, dean of the ambassadors, noticeable | President to | from | | this — ‘reatment.

Lord Pauncefote suggested that pre- vious arrangements of seats for ambassa- dors, had not always been satisfactory, and said he hoped the dignity of the am- bassadors as personal representatives of sovereigns, would now be recognized. Mr. Ransdell replied that seats of honor for the dfpfemats had been reserved next to the justices of the Supreme Court, and he explained that no slight was intended to the ambassadors. Four years ago, Lord Pauncefote, on be- half of the ambassadors, then four in num- ber, claimed precedence of the vice-presi- dent. This was not allowed on the ground that the vice-president occupied a similar dig- nity to that of crown prince, who could not be disassociated or separate from the actual sovereign; and the ambassadors fol- lowed the vice-president. This year the ambassador asserts that to place them behind the Supreme Court would bee the harbinger of a further relegation to the rear next time. The legislative branch have equal claim to precedence with the Supreme Court, and the result might be ethat the ambassadors will finally bring up with six or seven hundred jus- tices, cablinet officials, senators and repre- sentatives between them and the President. The question is being thoroughly debated by the ambassadorial corps. and it is not unlikely that if the committee In charge refuses to consult the. state department ANTINARCOTIN- = MARVELOUS WORK Morphinism and Alcoholism Permanently Cured in a Rapid and Painless Manner by a Marvelous Scientific Discovery.

THE PRESIDENT’S BADGE. Gen.

The medal is similar to that Struck for the members of the several in- augural committees, being cast in gold, however, instead of bronze. Gen. Spear also presented the chief executive with a hand- somely bound copy of the inaugural souve- nir book, containing the pictures of all presidents of the United States and an ac- count of the inauguration exercises attend- ing the taking of office of each. gold medal and souvenir also will be presented to Vice-President Roosevelt.

S. LINCOLN, M. D.,, 101 Crutchfield St., Dallas, Tex. - \ / yr F. H. STOUFER, Secretary and Treasurer of Railway Con- ductors, Pueblo, Col. JUDGE HENRY SCHAFER, Flemington, N. J. J : REV. PAUL WELLER, Gorham, N. Y. Hypnotism fs no longer a myth, a fanciful creation of the mind, but a reality, & most potent power, capable of producing infinite good. For the purpose of ascertain- ing the exact value of this much-talked-of power, a committee, composed of a physi- cian, a well-known jurist, a prominent minister and leading railroad man, was ap- pointed to investigate hypnotism. The committee carried on a series of investigations In regard to the power of hypnotism to influence the actions and deeds of people in the everyday walks of life. The first step taken by the members of the committee was to master the science in every detail, so that they might state from personal experience the good or evil this strange power might produce. They wrote the New York Inatitute of Science of Rochester, N. Y., the greatest school of Hypnotism and Occult Sclence in the world; and received full and complete instructions in regard .to-how hypnotism may be used to influence people in business, how to use. jt In treating Giseases, etc., etc. In a few days they mastered these instructions and were full-fledged hypnotists. It was clearly demonstrated that hypnotism may be employed so that the person operated upon is entirely unconscious of the fact that he is being influenced; and, all things: considered, the committee regard it as the most valuable discovery of modern times, in soclety. A knowledge of it is essential to one’s success in life and well-being ‘Dr. Lincoln says, after a thorough investigation, that he considers it the most marvelous therapeutic or curative agent of modern times. : Judge Schafer, although a legal light, turned his attention to healing the sick, and in a few treatments he completely cured John E. Myers of Fiemington, N. J., of a strange malady that had kept him bedfast for nine years, and which the doctors said must surely kill him. Judge Schafer’s fame spread for miles around, and hun- dreds of people applied to him for treatment, Stoufer performed the astonishing feat of hypnotising Mr. Cunningham of Mr. Pueblo, Col., at a distance of several blocks. He also hypnotized an aged gentleman, and had him run through the streets shouting “Red-hot peanuts for sale.” Mr. Stoufer says it is indispensable to one’s business success. Rev. Paul Weller says that every minister and every mother should understand hypnotism for the benefit they can be to those with whom they are brought in daily contact. In speaking of this marvelous power, President Eliot of Harvard college said to the graduates: “Young gentlemen, there is a subtle power lying latent in each of you which few of you have developed, but which, when developed, might make a man irresistible. master it.”’ It is called Personal Magnetism or Hypnotism. I advise you to The New York Institute of Science has just issued 10,000 copies of a book which fully explains all the secrets of this marvelous power, and gives explicit directions for becoming a practical hypnotist, so that you can employ the foree without the knowledge of anyone. Anybody can learn. Success guaranteed, The book also contains a full report-of the members of the Committee. It wit) be sent absolutely free to anyone who is interested. A postal card will bring it.

Mr. Carter of Montana expressed his sym- yathy with the general views of Mr. Platt, but said that through a combination of cir- cumstances the appropriations of the pres- ent Congress were unusually large, although it was difficult even now to see where any notable reduction could have been made. He did not think that a record for econ- See = . a y 7 ‘ oO at . “ - i , SISOS SEER a te ee i oi = ay, SN “ , Fxhales from children as fragrance from flowers. The little lips are always puck- ered to give or take akiss. In homes where there are children, love reaches its fairest and sweetest proportions. In childless homes the kiss of wife and husband grows formal, and presently is neglected ; the springs of love in the heart become chok for want of use and exercise. Childlessness is a t sorrow to many women. It is like a curse from Nature, who bids all crea- tures to be fruitful. It is not a curse but.a misfortune. Often the conditions which cause childlessness are rernovable.

The bill was passed. Mr. Allison announced that the public business was now in such condition as to admit of plans for the remainder of the session. At his request the Senate then agreed to take a recess from 5:30 p. m. today until 8 p. m., and a further recess. from 10:3U tonight until 3 p. m. tomo-:row. When Mr. Aldrich called up a bill ported from the finance committee and asked for immediate consideration, Mr. Pettigrew inquired whether, under the re- cess arrangement of the Senate he would re- vet a vote upon his resolution to discharge | the committee on education and labor from consideration of the eight-hour bill. It was explained that this was the last legislative day of the present session and that the resolution would not be in order except by unanimous consent or by vote of the senate. When Mr. Pettigrew asked unanimous consent that a vote be taken upon the resolution, Mr. Sewell objected. Mr, Pettigrew declared passionately that a tacit agreement had been made to vote upon his resolution and he_ proposed to prove that vote if possible. He objected to Mr. Aldrich’s bill. Mr. Clay of Georgia delivered his pre- viously announced speech upon the Nicar- agua canal bill. He earnestly advocated iis passage and dwelt particularly upon the advantages that would accrue to the South from the building of the canal. Mr. Jones of Arkansas moved considera- tion of his resolution to discharge the com- mittee of judiciary er further consid- eration of the anti-trust bill, but before action was taken the Senate, by a vote of 40 to 28, went into executive session.

NASHVILLE, Tenn., March 2.—Mrs. Jen- nie Bruton, who was- married in Washing- ton today, formerly lived in Nashville, where her husband was engaged in the snuff manufacturing business with Martin Condon, under the name of the Bruton & Condon Snuff Co. Mrs. Bruton was a Miss- issippian, her maiden name being Jennie Berry. The Bruton & Condon company made fortunes for the two men and Mn Condon is now worth close to a million dol- lars. Mr. Bruton died nine years ago, leav- ing his widow $50,000 life insurance, and about as much cash, and the half interest ’ in his business, which she has retained. The company grew to very large propor- tions, considering the smal! beginning, and was recently taken into.the American Snuff Co. She has not made Nashville her home for some time, spending much time abroad and in the Fast. She is possibly not over 3% years of age and was a social favorite here. She has no children. EVEN PLATT PROTESTED. Omnibus Public Building Bill Adds $2,200,000 to Appropriations. POST-DISPATCH BURBADO, 1347 Pennsylvania Avenue. WASHINGTON, March 2.—Senator Platt of Connecticut today placed himself on rec- ord with Senators Hale and Lodge in pro- testing against the enormous expenditures of the session just closing. This was done, he explained, in order that hereafter it might not be said he did not raise his voice against them. The appropriations, he said, have now reached a point where they are calculated to challenge the attention of the entire country. Mr. Piatt made his criticism when the omnibus pubie ne ding bill came up for co on. This bill, he said, increased the fixed limit authorized for various pub- buildings $2,200,000. If this propertier of were extended to all buildings now under construction by the government the amount would be doubled. A limit, he said, must soon be reached to the piling up of colossal appropriations. WATER'S TIP MAS $160,000 How Adam Brunner of the Holland | House Made His Attentions to Mr. | Schwab Turn to Gold. | Special to the Post-Dispatch. NEW YORK, March 2.—Adam Brunner, head waiter at the Holland House, is point- ed out as a luck man, having won the Kindly interest of Charles M. Schwab, the $800,000 a year president of the billion dol- lar steel. combination. Adam had saved some money, but was perplexed about investing it. At the Hol- land House assembled the steel magnates at the time their giant combination was forming and with them came an idea to Adam. He was assiduous in his attentions to them as they lingered at the table, es- pecially was he devoted io the creature comfort of Mr. Schwab. The young prest- dent was appreciative and spoke to Adam. From this beginning grew an acyuaintance, carefully cultivated by Adam, until at length he dared to mention -his savings and ask advice about what to do with them. Mr. Schwab, the story goes, told Adam to go to Wall street and place his mney in certain ways. The waiter did as advised and in a week had $150,000. “TI beg,’’ said Brunner when asked about it last night, ‘‘to be excused from answer- ing any questions.” Confederates Dined.

Special to the Post-Dispatch. PITTSFIELD, Mass., March 2.—The rea- son that Chief of Police Nicholson rejected the burglary theory in the murder of May Fosburg was disclosed today. It was be- cause of a remark made by Robert Stewart Fosburg to his sister Esther, upon her re- turn from Adams, where she was visiting when her sister was killed. She was sum- moned home by telegraph. No intimation of the trugedy had been given to her, but she had been told that her father had sad news for her. When she stepped from the train and saw her father’s battered. condi- tion, she asked: “Why, what has happened?” tobert, not yet being ready to break the wend ney news of May's death to his sister, repiieda,: “Oh, father and I had a ‘scrap.’ ”’ | Chief Nicholson seized upon this state- | | ment as the turning point of the case.

The man who wins recognition few must do some one thing extremely well." This is, in brief, the secret of Dr. Milen’s unparalicied success as 4 specialist in the treatment and cure wof Sexual! Diseases of men. During th. % years he has practiced ne, he has concentrate] } time, talents and energies endeavoring. to do one thing well, viz.: mastering methods for the successful treatment Of all diseases peculiar to tive sexual system of a man. His unequivocal success as *a specialist in this.line is a weli- ed recognition of the deep study, elaborate investi- gations and exhaustive re- e@arch that he has pursued in his efforts to master the Gigeases he has made a life specialty of. The exclusive and ultimate aim and end of his work in the field of medi- cine has been to evolve sys- tems of treatment and to dis- cover and apply remedies that would enable him to effect a fpeedy and permanent cure of those baneful maladies that inflict on mankind, and which in many in- stances jeopardize even life itself. Equipped as Dr. Milen is, with a vast, varied and unusual experience in his spe- cial field: fortified as he is with original remedes and methods for treating the dis- eases he makes a specialty of, it is abso- lutely certain that any man who seeks his services will not be made the subject of ex- periment. Instead he will receive just the right treatment that his condition demands and will be speedily and permanently cured of his ailments. Dr. Milen PERSONALLY TREATS EVERY CASB, whether the pa- tient calls at his office or consults him by letter. He has no substitute and does not conduct offices in other cities. Each case is carefully diagnosed -and studied, and each treatment is prepared in accordance with He invites every afflicted man to.call upon him or write him. His counsel is free.

His charges arc most reasonable, and will be found of little weight and consequence ' When placed in the balance against the in- estimable boon and bicssing of perfect health, and perfect health is achieved by every sick man who places his case in the wkilled hands of this great Twentieth Cen- tury specialist. SEXUAL DEBILITY. ‘Ws Baneful Effects and How Its Spsedy and Permanen: Cure Is Effected. Probably there are few physicians, un- less they possessed Dr. Milen’s experience and knowledge, who would be willing to ad- mit or Whé are in fact in a position to know and realize the alarming prevalence and in MANY Cases the pitiful and even pathetic re- sults of that ailment known by the various titles of Sexual Debility, Nervous Debility, Debility and Sexual Neuras- thenia. A variety of causes contribute to this and a variety of symptoms presence. It arises in a ma- Of cases from excessive indu)gence or youthful follies, yet it is in many instances Caused also by mental worry, overstudy, business féverses and excessive use of al- ceholic Stimulants or tobacco. Oftentimes 6 met with who apparently enjoy @ physical health, yet lack that one very requisite of perfect manhood, viz: Vigor. The victim of this ailment ts Very sensitive in this regard to and feels keenly the humilia- PtHAt it entails. As Sexual Debility is of Mecessity a nervous disease, it brings ‘H that train of evils that attend all of the nervous system. The @eplorabie of these evils are without effects on the mind. Gloom and . fear of impending danger, a and inability to concentrate are among the most prominent of effects of Sexual Debility. The fils include pains in the head, ring- buzzing noises in the ears, spots be- be eyes, pimples on the face, dark cir- les around the eyes, pains across the back ‘ORG 8 generally tired, languid and exhausted ee There are night emissions and ¢ losses and drains that are ex- ting and debilitating.

It is immaterial that you have failed to find a cure elsewhere, for Dr. Milen'’s methods and remedies are so radically different and so remarkably effective that a speedy cure, even in aggravated cases of long standing, is readily accomplished. In his studies and investigations Dr. Milen has thoroughly examined into and analyzed the causes, conditions and results of sexual weakness in men, and his own special, original and exclusive method of treatment is the result of these studies. The effect of the treatment is magical. It imparts the fire of youth and the vigor and strength of healthy physical manhood. It renews vitality and gives new life and en- lt inspires ambition and confidence. It causes the eye to sparkle and the glow of health to appear in the face. The elas- tic, springy step returns, and there is that i) = THEODORE MILEN, M. D., The Only Specialist in St. Louis Who Cures Men Only self-satisfied feeling that is the natural re- sult of sound physical health and mental brightness. THE CAUSE AND CURE OF WEAK BACK IN MEN. Tt is an erroneous but nevertheless an almost universal belief that a weakness and pain in the back, especially in men, is due to diseased kidneys. This is not the case, as there are no nerves of sensation in the kidneys, and diseases of these organs are known by altogether different symptoms. Pains in the back and a weak feeling in that region are, in the majority of cases, due to a diseased or disordered condition of the Prostate Gland. This gland is-the very center of the male sexual system and upon its functional activity depend the life of man and tho propagation of a healthy race. Diseases of the prostate gland are so in- timately allied to seminal weakness that both may be classed under one head. Dis- eases of the prostate gland, regardless of | their nature, invariably relax and weaken the seminal ducts, and seminal weakness seldom exists when the prostate diand is in a healthy condition. Severe pains in the back, loins and thighs and a generally weak feeling across the small of the back are cer- tain indications of a diseased prostate giand. Dr: Milen’s treatment for prostatl- tis, ulceration or enlargement of the pros- tate and all other diseases of this member is a most thorough and scientific one and is purely original with him. It quickly re- stores the diseased organ ‘to a normal, healthy condition, and at the same time causes all reflex nervous conditions and disturbances of the other organs of the sex- ual system to disappear, completely and permanently. CONTAGIOUS BLOOD POISON. Blood Polson is, in its mildest form, a is always to be dreaded. If neglected or improperly treated and the virus is allowed | to remain in the system and the disecaso thus to become, as it is termed, cons:‘it"- tional, it becomes a most loathsome ind filthy disease, undermining the constitution, destroying the gerera!l health and sapping the very foundation of life, rendeting the sufferer a mere wreck in both bedy and m* ad, ne to himself and shunned by ait around him. It is not suffic‘ent in or- der to eradicate the disease from the system that the primary ulcer at the time of infec- tion should merely be healed. A thorn constitutional treatment is necessary from the beginning, otherwise the disease devel- ops later on in what are term- ed the secondary and tertiary stages. These stages are mani- fest by a variety of symptoms, such as aches in various parts of the body, particularly in the knees and lower Nmbs. The hair and eyebrows fall out, pimples appear in the scalp, copper-colored spots on va- rious parts of the body and mucous patches in the mouth. Dr. Milen's treatment for blood poison in all its stages Is absolutely the most perfect, thorough and effective ever discovered. He stakes his pro- fessional reputation upon its unfailing success and he guar- antees a positive and speedy cure in every case. By his sy3- tem of treatment every vestige of the poison is thoroughly eradicated from the _ system, never to return. STRICTURE. The great prevalence of Urethral Stricture, and its disastrous results, makes it a disease demanding most skill- ful treatment. No ailment: of mankind has been subjected to more flagrant.. maltreat- ment. It js surprising that in this enlightened age doctors continue the barbarous painful and useless method of cutting to remove stricture. Stricture is a granular and not a muscu- lar formation, and. as such, must be dis- solved and digested by chemical action Cutting, dilating and other barbarous meth- ods are only practiced by the ignorant and unskilled. Dr. Milen’s treatment for stric- ture is a painless one. It is not known or used by any other physician in this country, being purely his own discovery. The treatment is easily ad- ministered and it quickly and permanently dissolves the stricture, removing it root and branch, and in so doing all reflex and associate troubles also disappear. VARICOCELE. Varicocele is in substance an accumulation of sluggish blood in the veins of a weak- ened and diseased scrotum. It is both a cause and effect of seminal weakness. Dr. Milen’s new and original method of curing Varicocele without an operation is distinct- ly different from the usual] forms of treat- ment for this ailment, and its use is attend- ed with universal success. treatment the swollen, Sagging veins are emptied of thely contents and gradually/re- duced to their natural size. The parté re- gain their tone and normal condition strength is restored, all pain and the dragging sensations disappear, the swell- ings vanish, power and vigor, which were lacking, return, and the patient realizes that at last he has found permanent relief from this terrible affliction. DISEASE ENDANGERS LIFE IF NE- GLECTED. All diseases are dangerous—some more so than others, particularly if they are neglected. It is criminal negligence not to consult a doctor that can and will cure you if you are afflicted with disease of any kind. Many simple ailments if not prompt- lv attended to frequegly take on compli- cated conditions and a fatal termination is inevitable if relief is not obtained. Men, if you are sick or ailing and want to regain health and strength. go to the doctor who possesses the skill and ability to cure you; the doctor who will thoroughly sympa- thize with you in your affliction; the doc- tor who will treat you with the greatest kindness and consideration. You will find all these qualifications in the person of Dr. Milen. Office hours, 8 a. m. to 5 p. m. Evenings, 6:30 to 8. Sundays, 10 a. m. to 12 noon. HOME TREATMENT BY MAIL. A personal visit at the office is always to be preferred, but for those who live out of the city and are unable to call, Dr. Milen has developed a system of home treatment by mail that is entirely his own. Write him candwkily concerning your troubles and he will give you his opinion by return mail, free of charge. Theodore Milen, M.

BRILLIANT PROSPECTS HELD OUT TO THE STOCKHOLDERS. Profits Will Increase Greatly, and J. P. Morgan & Co. Are to Make Only Profit on Underwrit- ing Plans. NEW YORK, March 2.—A circular ad- dressed by J. P. Morgan & Co. to the stock- holders of the Federal Steel Co., National Steel Co., National Tube Co., American Steel and Wire Co., American Tin Plate Co., American Steel Hoop Co. and Ameri- can Sheet Steel Co.; which, together with Carnegie Co., are to be merged into the United States Steel Corporation, was is- sued today. It recites the previously known terms of exchange .-.of securities of the constituent companies and is supplemented by an ad- dress of the board of directors of the var- ious companies, urging acceptance of the terms offered on the score of decreased ex- penditure and larger net earnings without advances in prices of manufactured pro- ducts. In order to carry out the provisions of the consolidation, the capitalization of the United States Steel Corporation will be $1, 154,000,000. Of this amount $425,000,000 is seven per cent cumulative preferred stock; an equal amount of common stock, and $504,000,000 of five per cent bonds. The bonds are to be used only in acquiring the bonds and sixty per cent of the stock of the Carnegie Com- pany. An underwriting syndicate of $200,000,000 has been formed to finance the plan. J. & Morgan & Co. will manage the syndicate and exchange the bonds and stocks of the new corporation for those of the subordi- nate eompanies and $25,000,000 in cash. The syndicate is to retain all stocks -not_ re- quired for the acquisition of the combin- ing companies. Negotiable receipts will be issued for the deposits of stock at the depositories designated. The right is re- served to whthdraw the terms of exchange to any company unless two-thirds of its cap- ital stock is deposited, or to withdraw their offer in respect to all companies if deemed advisable. Preferred stock dividends of ous companies are adjusted up to April 1, but common stock deposited must have dividends or rights to dividends declared or payable up to March 1. No adjustment is made otherwise. A clause in the charter of the United States Steel Corporation restricts the pay- ment of dividends on the common stock out of the net earnings or surplus until the year’s quarterly dividends have been paid on the preferred stock. Dividends accrue cn the latter from April 1. Accord- ing to statements made by officials of the various companies entering the combina- tion their aggregate net earnings for 190 were sufficient to pay dividends on both common and preferred stocks of the United States Steel corporation, besides allowances for sinki funds and maintenance. The capitalization of the company may be re- duced if the entire capitalization of the sub- ordinate companies is not acquired. J. P. Morgan & Co. announce that they have received no compensation whatever for their services in perfecting the deal other than the profits to be realized from the operation of the underwriting syndicate. “ey of stock under the agreement are called for up to March 20 without penalty.

MacArthur, was a passenger on the transport Pennsylvania, which arrived this afternoon from Manila. Owing to the fact that some papers which he had expected to receive here had not yet arrived, Mr. Rice was unwilling to make any formal state- ment of his side of the controversy be- tween himself and the military authorities. Mr. Rice ‘vill remain here about a week, when he expects to go to his former home at Red Wing. Minn. There he will lay his case before the state officials and congres- sional delegation with a view of bringing the matter before President McKinley and also bringing suit against the national gov- ernment for damages. Mr. Rice claims that he was kept in close confinement three days at Manila before deportation. He was under guard all the way across, being al-? lowed the freedom of the deck when out- side of port.

Arthur Smith and Miss Annie Pinnell scored a victory over unknown conspirators against their happiness when they were married by Justice Greensfelder at Clayton yesterday afternoon, a little more than an hour after their application for a marriage license had been refused by Assistant LJI- couse lerk Emil Leonhardt at the City all. Leonhardt’s refusal to issue a license to the young couple was caused by a telephone message which Janitor Studivent of the re- corder’s office received yesterday morning before the arrival of any of the office force. The person at the other end of the tele- »yhone did not give his name, but said plain- fy that Smith was but 19 years old, and that it would be a grave mistake to grant him a license. Tears stood in the eyes of the young peo- le as they turned away from Clerk Leon- ardt's desk. When they received a num- ber of their friends last night at the home of the bride's sister, Mrs. ag Connor of 1717 North Garrison avenue, the tears had turned to smiles, but. both were still won- dering who sent the anonymous telephone message. Smith's home is at Sullivan, Mo. For three months past he has been employed by a St. Louls mercantile house, and has boarded with J. H. Wilson, at 2700 Randolph street. He first met Miss Pinnell at a dance in South St. Louis, three weeks ago last night. FAVOR NIGHT SCHOOL CHANGES. Patrons Ask That Two Months Be Added to the Season. The board of education will hold a special meeting Wednesday to consider the propo- sition to continue the night schools for this year two months longer than origin- ally planned. The call for the meeting was issued as the result of the presentation of a petition to the board by the students of the night school in the High School bullding at Grand and Finney avenues.

NEW YORK, March 2.—Mark A. Rosen- garten, a broker on the Consolidated Ex- change, failed today. His liibilities are small, but the fact that he is associated with the firm of Carley, Rosengarten & Car- ley, who have done a large business on the Consolidated for several years, caused comment itn Wall street. It was subsequent- ly developed that the firm of Carley, Rosen- garten & Carley is in liquidation and that their creditors are considering a propos!- tion to accept stock for their claims in a proposed corporation to be formed to take over the business of the firm. A representative of the firm sald: “It is true that the firm has been in financial dif- ficulties for several weeks. We are wait- ing to agree upon a plan of settlement that will be satisfactory to our customers, a majority of whom are willing to accept our proposals. The firm’s embarrassments are due principally to the publicity given to the bankruptcy proceedings of Francis D. Car- ley. He is not a member of our’firm, but is a brother of our senior partner.” BALD HEADED BRITISHERS. .

This fact stamped it as al | fair. just and nonpartisan measure. It em- | were retained as counsel for the committee, which fact makes it perhaps not inappropri- ate that I say a word at this time. There was an emphatic demand for a new system of election laws. Public opinion was tho- roughly aroused on the subject, and the time for passing such laws was auspicious. Gov. Stone had called a special session of the Legislature. One of the few matters to be considered by the call was the new election law for St. Louis and Kansas City. The bill introduced could be dealt with on its merits, as there were no collateral meas- ures to trade upon. But the time was still more auspicious from the fact that the House was Republican and the Senate and This made it well nigh impossible to get any but a fair and non-partisan bill enacted into law. The bill gotten up by counsel for the pub- lic safety committee did not suggest any- thing original or untried. It was for the most part a copy of the Chicago election laws modified to suit the machinery of our municipal and state governments. The Chi- cago plan had been adopted from New York. After the bill Was prepared it was carefully revised by a subcommittee, and I recall the specially good work of Mr. Judson and Mr. Breck Jones, who, as lawyers and men of experience in municipal affairs, gave valua- ble aid. It was then submitted to the whole committee and adopted. The underlying principle of the bill in the first place was to abolish general registra- tion at the City Hall and establish precinct registration, the precincts being so divided as to contain as nearly as possible 300 vot- ers each. Experience had demonstrated that in large cities the most fruitful source of fraud is a common center for the registra- tlon of thousands and tens of thousands instead of small precincts, where the voters are known and their identity can be easily ascertained. Next in importance was the utmost publicity given at every step in the registration. A copy of the register of names hung up in the office o registration open to every one who wished to see it, the publication of the list, so that printed copies could be obtained, together with other matters of detail, all looked to/| one end, the greatest publicity possible as to | what was being done.

The stone, which he purchased in London sev- eral years ago, is worth about $7000, and is full of brillianey and fire. The owner of it seems to be earnest in his superstitiousness for he says that every time he goes without it. he is pursued by ill-luck. “It is my birth stone." he told a friend, ‘“‘for I was born on the thirteenth day of October. So I feel no scruples about carrying so no- toriously an unlucky stone.

The marquis re- plied, regretting he could not see it that way, but he sent his resignation papers to Lord Roberts.

Everything in house furnishings from the cheap substantial, but well made, house- hold furnishings, to the best products of the leading factories are offered in this sale at prices that will crowd the immense building that the D. Sommers company will hereafter occupy. The prices are right. They were made to force vigorous selling. The firm offers elegant goods at ordinary prices. The name D. Sommers is a guarantee of the excellency of the goods. There are scores of thrifty women in S8t. Louls who know that whatever bears the D. Sommers guarantee is right.

RELIGION OF DEATH. Fanatics Seeking Heaven Through - Voluntary Death. Special Cable to the Post-Dispatch. (Copyright, 1901.) : ST. PETERSBURG, March 2.—A number of Russian peasanfs living on the Yolga have attached themselves to a new religion, the principal tenet of which is to seek to get to heaven by a voluntary death, and in this way to avoid the power of the coming anti- Christ. The leader of the sect is one Makaroff. He and his followers have left their villages and sought retired places in the woods and in the remote steppes. Many of them have already disappeared, either committing sui- cide or allowing their co-religionists to kill them. It is believed that Makaroff'’s sect is a recrudescence of a widely spread or- ganization which the police suppressed ear- ly_in the fifties. The bodies of several of these fanitics have been found. The police are doing their utmost to stamp out the sect, which al- ready numbers hundreds. FIRST TRIED SUICIDE. Now Pretty French Widow Orders s Sumptuous Submarine Boat.

The Wilson who became known to us through his athletic entrances and his gyrations and grimaces is now conducting a Chautauqua, and right in his own company at that. In all seriousness, Wilson can easily take rank as the best-informed comedian on the stage today. He is to a great extent a self- educated man, and as he. himself says, much of his success in life has been due to incessant application. The application began when as a biack- face comedian he was having a slap stick applied to his anatomy three shows a day. The same thing has taken place in the evolution of his mind. He is a voracious reader and loves nothing better than to get in a book store and hunt for rare vol- umes. So now each Friday he conducts a Chautauqua in his hotel. The class is com- posed of the members of his company. These choice spirits sit in a circle and are quizzed by the comedian on their knowl- edge of history, political science and other topics. The class is known as “The Chaut- auqua Literary and Scientific Circle,’’ and has been of much benefit to the members. One warm June day in Washington Chauncey Olcott ran across an old colored woman sitting under an awning and fan- ning herself. ‘It's dreadfully hot, isn't it, mammy?” said Mr. Olcott. ‘Deed it is, chile.” said the old woman, “ ‘deed it !s. ‘'Tain’t right fer it to be hot this-a-way. I tell you # years ago when the Blessed Lawd made the weather we didn’t have these stewing days, honey, no, ‘deed we didn't; but now these biggety men up at this here weather office has the making of the weather, they does send us anything they please, and they ain't skillful, chile; they ain't skillful.” The fact that the Rogers Brothers have helped Oscar Hammerstein to make a smal] fortune at the Victoria Theater has caused this astute manager to seek about for a suitable successor. He has hit upon the Russell Brothers, known to the vaudeville stage by their act called “The Irish Serv- ant Girls." He intends to place them at the head of a company at the Victoria Theater next season in a vaudeville farcé to be written by somebody, but by whom it is not just known. Mr. Hammerstein claims that he has an arrangement with Harry B. Smith to write a plece. Mr: Smith says he knows nothing about such an arrangement, while Mr. Hammer- ++ Commencing March 25. reo claims it was Mr. Smith's suggestion that a plece should be written for these Irish comedians. While these two gentle- men are squabbling over a question of veracity the public will be interested to know that somebody will write the piece and that the Russell Brothers will be the next graduates from the vaudeville stage into farce comedy. Kirk La Shelle expects that he will pro- duce Augustus Thomas’ “Arizona” in Lon- don this spring at one of the Jeading play- houses of that town. Either he will send over one of the three “‘Arizona’’ companies now playing in this country under his dl- rection, or, in the event of his being un- able to cancel the bookings, he will put together a brand-new organization to pre- Sent the play abroad. Ile thinks the drama is of sufficient value irrespective of at- mosphere and character for it to do as well ineone country as in another. ——— il & HEARD IN THE WINGS. eo & & & & & & & > & > o> + ? ” “ o o,° & x te ee te te de Se ae ce ce ee ae a o 7 6 ISS BOB WHITE” is the name M of a new comic opera which Nixon and Zimmerman will pro- duce at one of their Philadelphia theajers in April.

This is Selma Herman's last season in “A Young Wife.’’ She will appear as a star in a book dramatization next season. In the case of James K.

The company en- ae to support Howard Gould is from tbe ceum Theater, New York, and is said to be a most competent one. The scenic investiture is that used in the -rinitial production at the Ly- ceum Theater. The story of the play deals mainly with the same characters as were vresented in ‘‘The Prisoner of Zenda,’’ which relates the adventures of Rutloif Rassendyll while impersonating Rudolf V. of Ru- ritania, with whom he was connected by descent, and to whom he bore a remarkable resemblance. The action of ‘‘Rupert of Hentzau’’ begins three years after that of ‘‘The Prisoner of Zenda’’ ends, and is concerned with the results of a scheme by which Rupert of Hentzau. desirous of reinstating himeelf in the Kine'’s favor and regaining his «on- fiscated estates. possesses himself of a letter writ- ten by Flavia to Rassendrl!l in which, while te- neanala for the future any communication what- ever with him. she confesses her love for him. ‘““M'liss."’ the briehest and breeziest of the American dramas. is to have a revival at Havlin’s. beginning with the matinee of toaay.

In this act he has chances to change his costume twice and thus give a variety of aspect to his familiar tricks of speech and antic. A brand-new company will interest Mr. Wilson's admirers this season. The only matinee will be on Saturday. In presenting Puccini's ‘‘La Bobheme’’ for the first time in English in St. Louis the Castle Square Opera Company will launch into the most ambiticus effort of its career. and Monday evenifig may see the marking of another milestone in the progress of this organization. It is believed that such an occasion naturally will attract to Music Hall en unusval crewd of musical epthualasts. The members of the Castle ro pone ra Ccm- ny are expecting to give a vivid exposition of the ramatic and musical contents of ‘‘La Boheme,’”’ which represents life as it was lived in the Finohemia of the Latin Quartier jn the Paris of 1830, curing the reign of King Louis Phillipe, when happy, careless poets, artists and beauties of the Quartier loved, quarreled and suffered. The. story of the opera will be related against a scenic background which will certainly have an uncommcn power of itilusion. The cheerful garret in which the four friends, Rudolph, Marcel, Qblline and Schaunard are first discovered, and in which the final tragedy occurs, the brave pict- uresqueness of the Cafe Momus and its eurround- ines, and the grim Barriere d’Enfer, with the snow falling. will all be found in keeping with Henri Murgerz’s story, from which the famous libre*to is drawn. Helene Mora will offer a new act at the Columbia this week. She anvears in the character of a sister of charity. The song Is bv an Italian composer and is said to be auite as well suited to Miss Mora’s roice as ‘*The Holy City.’’ Effective stage settin and lights and a chorus of eight choir boys add interest to this offering. Joe Welch, pular Hebrew comedian. and Lizzie B. Raymond, char- acter comedienne and serio-comic, return after an absence of several seasons. The Holloday Trio, English wire walkers and exnert balancers on un- supporte:] ladders. should prove one of the best novelties of the week.

Fe 7 ” ~ , cy > ae Permanent Cure by ee DR. COOK, We state a familiar fact when we declare that Varicocele, Stricture, Specific Bico® throne manhood than all other physical fills combined. While they seldom kill outright, yet they furnish the foundation for other diseases that are fatal. They completely un- nerve the physical and mental, as well as the sexual man, and absolutely ufifit him for the duties and pleasures of both business and social life. If you are thus afflicted you certainly do not intend to always remain so, will be interested in knowing the best, safest and most certain means of getting back, the health you have lost. Affilcted men, our whole professional life, not very short and certainly never tnac- tive, has been one continuous effort to free our fellow-man from the d@iseases and weaknesses peculiar to the male. We treat nothing else. In our long yeara of per- sistent study, diligent research and scientific investigation we have discovered and developed various forms of treatment for VARICOCELE, STRICTURE, SPHCIFIC BLOOD POISON, NERVO-SEXUAL DEBILITY and allied troubles, which make their cure an unqualified and absolute certainty. This claim is no idle boast. Its truth ts. supported by over 9000 men, among them some of the best citizens of St. Louis and / vicinity, who have during the past year been restored by us to health and hope and happy contentment. What we have done for them we can do for you. Our counsel is free and our cure, if you decide to take it, is reasonable, and not more than you are willing to pay. We will do by you as we would whnt you to do by us {f our cases were reversed. Scrotal Varicocele. Scrotal Varicocele has been described as a creeping disease. It silently steals upon its victim like a thief at night, and before he ts really aware of its presence great and damaging inroads are made upon his constitution. . The veins surrounding sper- matic cord become enlarged and engorged with impure blood and diseased e. At times this condition may be accompanied with a dull, heavy, dragging pain in the small of the back, extending down into the parts, low spirits, weakness of the body and brain, nervous debility, partial or complete loss of the sexual power, and not infrequently de- cline of the general health. All these disagreeable “symptoms soon disappear com- pletely and forever under our Varicocele cure, which {fs safe, painless and bloodless, and therefore free from surgery in any form. Every clot of stagnant blood and every fiber of diseased tissue are driven from the affected parts, normal circulation is re established throughout the pelvic region, the weakened organs become strong again, and sturdy manhood is restored. P Urethral Stricture. Our original and strictly modern treatment for Urethral Stricture cures the dis. ease without cutting or dilating, thus avoiding the horrors of surgery. It is the only treatment that should ever be used, and the only one recommended by the legions of men who have reecntly been cured by it. It acts immediately and directly upon the Stricture, dissolving it completely and dislodging all diseased tissué, which comes away in strips or shred-like fiber, allaying all irritation and inflammation, and leaving the urethral canal entirely free from obstruction and in. a sound and healthful condition, Nerve-Sexual Debility. It is sad to contemplate the unfortunate condition of so many men of our day and generation. At 30 they feel 50; at 4 they feel 6, and at 50 or 60, when they should be in the very prime of life, they are almost ready for the grave. The fire of youth has gone out, the fountain of vitality is exhausted. ?’remature old age! No matter what brought it on, the one thing for you to do 1s to get back the vim, the vigor and the vivacity of youth. Don't lose your grip on life. There are yet many happy, golden years for you if you only get help. We can and will not only help you, but cure you to stay cured. Curing diseases and weaknesses of the sexual and urinary system has been our exclu. sive business for the past twenty-three years, during which time we have lifteg up enough fallen men to make an army. Our treatment will restore to you what you have lost—your precious manhood. It stops all unnatural discharges and drains of vigor and gives perfect and permanent power to the sexual organs. It makes the bloed pure and rich, the complexion clear, the eyes bright, the flesh firm, the muscles solid and the nerves strong and steady. It clears up the clouded brain, brightens the intellec¢ and dispels all despondency. In short, our treatment for weak men builds up the phy- sical and mental, as well as the sexual man, and prepares him anew for the duties and pleasures of both married and single life.

A woman is sick ; some disease peculiar to her sex is fast developing in her system. She goes to her family physician and tells him a story, but not the whole story. She holds something back, loses her head, becomes agitated, forgets what she wants to say, and finally con- ceals what she ought to have told, and thus completely mystifies the doctor. . 3 Is it any wonder, therefore, that the doctor fails to cure the disease? Still, we cannot blame the woman, for it is very embarrassing to detail some of the symptoms of her suffering, even to her family, physician. It was for this reason that years ago Mrs. Lydia E. Pinkham, at Lynn, Mass., determined to step in and help hersex. Having had considerable experience in treating female ills with her ‘Vegetable Compound, she encourdged the women of Amer- ica to write to her for advice in regard to their complaints, and being a woman, it was easy for her ailing sisters to pour into her ears every detail of their suffering. In this way she was able to do for them what the phy- sicians were unable to do, simply because she had the proper information to work upon, and from the little group of women who sought her advice years ago, a great army of her fellow-beings are today constantly applying for advice and relief, and’ the fact that more than one hundred thousand of them have been successfully treated by Mrs. Pinkham during the last year is indicative of the grand results which are produced by her unequaled experience and training. No physician in the world has had such a training, or has sich an amount of information at hand to assist in the treatment of all kinds.of female ills, from the simplest local irritation to the most complicated diseases of the womb, | This, therefore, is the reason why Mrs. Pinkham, in her laboratory at Lynn, Mass., is able to do more for the ailing women of America than the family physician. Any woman, therefore, is responsible for her own suffering who will not take the trouble to write to Mrs. Pinkham for advice. The testimonials which we are constantly publishing from grateful women establish beyond a doubt the power of Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound to conquer female diseases. Grateful Letters from Cured Women. ‘“* DEAR Mrs. PINKHAM :—I was a sufferer from female weakness for about a'year dnd a‘half. I have tried doctors and patent medicines, but nothing helped me..

The pains were so hard as to almost cause spasms. hen [ eould endure the pains no longer, I was given morphine. My memory grew short and I gave up all hope of getting well. Thus I dragged along.

Company of Polish Artists Came to This Country to Escape Russian Persecution—How She Alone s Remained in This City. CAN FRANCISCO, Cal., March 2. “The Forest of Arden,” the beautiful home of Helena Modjeska upon the Pacitic coast, is about to pass out of her hands. Negotiations aré said to be now pending by which this unique ranch, the summer home of Count and Countess Bozenta, may become the property of an eastern million- aire. The estate in Santiago Canyon, away back upon & Spur of the Coast Ra Mountalns in Orange County, has been the fon of Modjeska for more quarter ofa century, Itisas noisseurs of art and lovers of nature find almost ideal. The drive to it is made the fertile Santa Ana Valley, h orchards of oranges and lemons and thousands of acres of waving grain. In the winter the uncultivated land is a carpet of wild flowers, where fields of foming ¥ rand ae and dainty ‘“‘baby ue riet “India ao. stoteusly. n paint brush” The — ascent from 600 to 2500 feet above the sea level is scarcely felt as one s up the canyon, thro mmense live oaks and gnar mores, under a tangle of wild grape vines and other creepers, crossing again and again a little mountain stream windin down to the valley below. With skill an taste this beautiful drive has been made most attractive. Wide detours are taken to spare the trees, rustic bridges span the restiess stream, while prant bowlders cov- ered with lichens rema n untouched in pic- turesque beauty along the way. A sud- den turn in the canyon brings one to Mod- jeska Park, a natural park of stately trees, two miles bey ‘ond which stands the house. It is a lone, rambling one-storied house, with broad piazzas and vine-clad trelises. “Arden” embraces 2000 acres, about 70 of which are in orchards of oranges, lemons, nuts and deciduous fruits. Around. the house are velvet lawns and flowing foun- tains and rare shrubbery. In the back- ground rise purple peaks and mountain solitudes. The houge is quaint and plc- turesque. It has French windows and broad verandas, where awnings, ham- mocks and cosey seats make outdoor life possible during all the summer months. Mme. Modjeska’s own room—her den—is the library. It has triple mullioned win- = and a quaint stone fireplace. Engrav- ing®, en paintings, rare Persian rugs, old mahogany furniture and deep seated leather chairs make this room most al!lur- Carved oak bookcases fill the side of the room opposite the long French windows that open upon the mountain view. Mad- ame’s work table is filled with books of plays and volumes on stage costumes and stage settings. Scrapbooks of dramatic crit- icisms and theatrical events and photo- hs of noted players are in picturesque ay ang the valued hn mes than a ot that con- h groves of ried old syca- peeces of furniture is a ittle black brass legged teble of the time Wyeeen Elizabet which was presented by Jefferson to Count Bo- genta.

The dining room, a long, low, sunny apartment, has a great brick fire lace and & stained glass window. The walls are hung with many art trophies, among which is a collection of arms, old swords, t cutlasses, crude battle axes and erous javelins. Many of these are the gifts of famous people and are historic in| al . The music room {fs a charming spot.

POST-DISPATOH BURBAW» 1347 Pennsylvania Avenue. WASHINGTON, March 2.—A wedding which will cause surprise to Southern so- ciety, as well as in Italy, took place tn this city at noon today. Mrs. Jennie Berry Bruton, a strikingly handsome and im- mensely wealthy widow of Nashville, Tenn,, was married to Don Enrico, son of Prince Ruspoli of Rome, Italy, and a scion of one of the most prominent Italian fami- lies. The ceremony was performed by Mer. Martinelli, the highest official represen- tative of the Pope in the United States. The wedding took place in the private chapel of the papal legation and was wit- nessed by Baron Fava, the Italian am- bassador; Count Della Gheredesca, Mar- uls de Talleyrand-Perigord, Baron Aliotti, nator Bate of Tennesse, Mr. Joseph Washington of Nashville, Mrs. MacDonald MacCarthy of Canada, Count and Countess Lichtovide and Mr. and Mrs. de Wollant of the Russian embassy. The ceremony was in strict accordance with Italian state and religious require- mets, two witnesses being required by the gevernment who are natives of the bride's residential state. The strictest secrecy was maintained re- arding the engagement existing between rs. ruton and Don Enrico. No public notice was made of the marriage and the ceremony was performed with every pos- sible privacy consistent with the legal re- quirements of Italy and the church. Mrs. Bruton was left a widow four years ago. Her husband was one of the two founders of the Nashville snuff factory, a concern which is one of the richest of its kind in the country. Her wealth consists of a controlling amount of stock in this concern, held in trust under the terms of her late husband's will for ten years. Her income from this stock, it is said, amounts to $30,000 a year. Mrs, Bruton has no children and since her peri of mourning ceased two years ago, e has spent her time abroad and in w York. Her acquaintance with Don En-. o is believed to have had its inception through her \mréeting with an Italian count- e#s at the Nashville exhibition several years aco. Don Enrico Ruspoli is the son of Prince Luigi Ruspoli and a nephew of Prince Francesco Ruspoli, Syndic of Rome. He is. on his mother's side. a nephew of the Marquise de Talleyrand-Perigord, formerly Miss Curtis of New York. Don Enrico Is a young man about twenty-two years ol age. and has been in New York during part of the winter.

THIEVES CAUGHT BY TELEPHONE Had Driven Away Henry Droste’s Fine Horse. NEWS OF THEFT PHONED ABOUT | OUTLYING POINTS TOLD TO LOOK OUT FOR RIG. Marshal Grof of Ferguson Heeded the Warning and Overhauled and Ar- rested Thieves in Two Hours ’ at Bridgeton. Last night the telephone captured two horse thieves and returned a $500 roadster to its owner. Several men assisted, but the telephone was the chief agent in the capture. With- out the worded wire, the thieves and their booty would have escaped into the fast- nesses of interior Missouri, and doubégless the dinky trotter would have been sold as a jaded plug. Liveryman Henry Droste, whose stable is at Jefferson avenue and North Market street, owns the animal, ‘‘Harry B,”’ a little black 4-year-old, who, his masjer says, has a 2:25 record. Mr. Droste had driven ‘‘Har- ry B” to the corner of Varideventer and Easton avenues, hitched to a storm bugsy. He went into a store on an errand. “I was not gone five minutes,’ he said, “but when I reached the street again my horse and buggy were not in sight. My heart was nearly broken, for I never ex- pected to see‘ ‘Marry B.’ again. Pedes- trians had seen two men driving away, heading west. “It occurred to me that the thieves would drive out of the city as fast as the colt cculd go, and I knew how fast that was. I determined to head them off by ‘phone, if possible, so I kept ‘central’ busy for an hour. It was 4:15 when the rig was stolen. “Naturally, supposing that the’ thieves had gone out Easton avenue, I telephoned to the Six-Mile House on“ that road, and was informed that the men had past in a gallop. I also ‘phoned to Six-Mile House on the Natural Bridge road, to Normandy, to Ferguson, to Baden, to Florissant, and even to Carondelet, de- termined to cover every avenue of escape. driven | the | Prepared to Capture Thieves. “As soon as I found that the rig had | passed the Six-Mile House, on Easton ave- | nue, I started my son, Harry B., after whom the horse is named, in a light run- | about, drawn by ‘Forsythe, a running horse, to pursue the fugitives. But I knew the gait of ‘Harry B.’ and had little hope of catching up with him from behind, for | he jis an animal that miles. will hold out for dU “From Normandy a 'phone message came | that the buggy had passed there, like streak of lightning, and, though were on the lookout when it -passed, ugitives.’’ a | officers | they | appew to have the nerve to try to It was the telephone message to Fergu- | son which resulted directly in the capture of the thieves.

Not far behind him was another man in a buggy drawn by a foam-filecked horse.

HIS STAGE WAS NEVER ROBBED DID MORE THAN OTHERS TO BREAK UP “ROAD AGENTS.” Still on Active Duty, Now With the Union Pacific, After a Quarter Century in Harness as c “Man Hunter.” OMAHA, Neb., March 2.—Scott Davis, one of the famous ‘‘outriders’’ during the stage days to the Black Hills, and who is cred- ited with doing more than any one man to break up the bands of road agents, is still in the harness after twenty-five years in the service as ‘‘man-hunter,”’ detective and scout, and from his appearance he- will remain in the business for another quarter of a century. There are no ‘“‘Buffalo Bill’ characteris- tics about Davis. He never tells of his own experiences, althongh his life's history reads like a novel. It was in the spring of ‘75 that Davis, then a strip of a boy seeking adventure, found himself in Deadwood, having crossed over from the Union Pacific with a freighting outfit. He had no money, and it did not take him long to learn that the country was overcrowded with men looking for work. The stage lines were having trouble with “road agents" and decided to send two armed guards called ‘‘outriders’’ with each coach. Davis learned that men who were good shots were wanted and the pay was $100 per month and a fixed sum for each rob- ber killed.- He decided to apply for a posi- tion and called on Al Patrick, then a man- ager fur the stage line. l’atrick sized up the fellow as a tender- foot, asked him the usual questions of his ability, experience and if he had “ever killed a man."’ Davis replied that he had not, but considered himself a good shot, and he was hired more because men were wanted by the. stage line than from any idea of Patrick’s that he would be a suc- cess. The Job Suited Him. Davis’ first trip out of Deadwood was uneventful and the job suited him. It was different the second trip. While crossing the plains in the northern part of Nebras- ka three road agents suddenly appeared and Davis was compelled for the first time to sight over his Winchester at a man. There were a number of shots fired on boti sides, and when the battle was over two dead highwaymen and one severely wound- ed were made additional baggage for the Stage the rest of the journey. It is not known who killed the men, but Davis was considered a good man from that time on. in two months’ time he figured prom- inently in four attacks and the highway- men soon learned that Davis could: not be outwitted, and a stage coach he accom- panied was avoided if possible. It is sa‘d of him that no stage accompanied by him was ever robbed. In his second year as an “outrider’’ Da- vis had an experience that he will never forget. He saved his charge from being robbed, but one of his passengers was killed. The stage was leisurely rolling over the hilis one sultry day, Davis riding on horseback a little in advance. When ap- roaching one’-of the stations to change 10rses he noticed the stableman was not out with fresh horses and suspected some- thing was wrong. A log had been removed from the stable and Davis knew that ban- dits were there waiting for the stage to drive up. He brought his horse to a walk so the stage could catch up with him, and without arousing suspicion, told the driver to wheel the horses and escape. Just as the horses turned a shot was fired from the stable and one of the lead horses fell, the horses became tangled and the ex- cited passengers left the coach. While seek- ing shelter one of them was killed. When Davis gave the order to the driver he dismounted and ran to the only tree in that vicinity, which was located about fifty yards from the stable. He attempted to dislodge the men in the stable and shot whenever he had a chance, while the robbers took 2a shot at him every opportunity. They on the road. After a lull of half an hour when one of the hold-ups appeared at the door of the stable, pushing the stableman ahead of him in such a manner that Davis dare not shoot for fear of hitting the man in front. He Thrashed a Deserter. When they advanced about half way he commanded them to halt or he would shoot, regardless of consequences. The robber tried to argue and promised to do him no harm if he would let them get at the stage. lt was useless to argue and the man backed up to the stable, still keeping the hostler in front of him. The men finally abandoned the vey and left by keeping the stable between them and the spot where Davis was. Another time an effort was made to rob his stage while it was in the hills. The ban- dits selected a lonely road and hid tin a canyon below the road. The first warning was a shot that brought down one of the lead horses. Davis slid down off the “‘boot”’ on the rear of the stage and took a shot at a head he saw exposed. His driver and sartner ‘‘outrider’’ left and took to the ills. He had several occasions to shoot and finally got a shell fastened in his gun. His shots were close enough to the bandits to let them know they had tackled an outfit that was going to put up a fight, and they were not situated to get at any one lying on the road. After a lull.of half an hour Davis found that the ‘‘road agents’ had abandoned him. When he found his com- gee he gave his partner a sound thrash- ng and refused to allow him to accompany him. Davis was usually sent out with the treas- ury coach and it was well known that a successful raid on this stage would ner large returns. At one time the treasury coach, in charge of others, was robbed by four men. Davis was put on the trail to ruhi them down. In cempany with another fearless man they chased the bandits over the bad lands in northern Nebraska for. a number of days. They came up to them unexpectedly one night and had an exciting fight. in which two of the bandits were killed. The. other two escaped and were never captured. Their escape was consid- ered a blot on Davis’ career, in his own estimation. Captured Five Horsethieves. After the railroads superseded the stage, Davis became a “anchman, and while so engaged five horsethieves drove off a herd containing 600 head of horses from one of AA Patrick's ranches. Knowing of Davis’ ability as a man hunter, Patrick sent for him. When he arrived the trail was three days old and alone. He followed it for a week without | manufacturer of Cincinnat!, to bury all notions of losing track of them.

Abeol tely Harmiess and find no trace of the outfit. “Knowing that their course was due west, he abandoned the search and rode into. Green River, Wyo. Before long he learned that an outfit had just arrived at a ranc sixty-five miles north of that place. The descriptiou of the men and horses, and the natural point they were heading for led him to lieve it was the outfit he was looking for. He was warned of the touch character of the ranch owner, and on the advice of others, he took an old stage- hand for a guide. They arrived at the ranch between 2 and 3 o'clock in the peor. Davis in- sisted on the guide staying in the back- ground and guarding the saddle horses while he went to the house. A knock on the door was responded to by a man who # . ot Ke Pog SO ee 7 SUE.

Davis inquired for the five men, but was told that they were not there. The ranch owner then talked in an unusual loud voice and insisted on keeping it up in spite of a ! warning to keep quiet. Davis finally felled him with a blow of his revolver just as his wife appeared. She was threatened with death unless she kept quiet and was or- dered to tell where the men were. She ad- How Every Sufferer From Varicocele and Lost Manhood Can Be Cured, and mitted that they were sleeping in a hay- stack about 200 yards from the house. Davis went to the place described and the Wasted Powers of Manhood Permanently Restored. found them asleep. He awoke them with a command to hold up their hands. There was a lively skirmish, resulting in one of the men being killed outright, two severely wounded and two escaping in their stock- ing feet. All the horses were recovered and the entire outfit taken to Green river. On arriving at that point, and before the horses were taken caré of, Davis learned of two men on their way to town who were in their stocking feet. He concluded to kéep a watch for their arrival, but before leaving the business part of the town he g ss 2 discovered his men in a restaurant. He covered them with a brace of revolvers . and made them prisoners. Davis then wired Patrick the results of his trip and was told to ship horses and men to Sidney, from which point the horse- thieves were sentenced to the penitentiary. They were the first horse- thieves ever caught in that vicinity who escaped hang- ing. scott Davis later became a fixture at the stock yards in South Omaha and recently attached himself to the secret *service de- partment of the Union Pacific.

INHERITANCE TAX A BOON State University Gets $177,900 More Than Last Session and Others Fare Well. JEFFERSON CITY, Mo., March 2.—The collateral inheritance tax has proven a boon to the educational institutions of Mis- souril. It gives to the State University this year the additional appropriation of $167,200. The bill providiag the appropriation for the State University and other state col- leges was sent to engrossment by the House yesterday afternoon. The total amount allowed the State University, $319,- 900, is $177,900 in excess of the sum author- ized for the maintenance and improvement of the university two years ago. Four- fifths of the collateral inheritance tax is devoted to the State University funds and. one-fifth to the School of Mines at olla. Rolla receives from this Legislature $64,- 550, or an increase of $383,500 over the last biennial appropriation. The second district normal school at Warrensburg is favored for current salaries and other expenses with $37,050, which is $2000 more than it formerly received. The State Normal School at Cape Girar- deau gets $46,750. This is nearly double the sum previogsly allotted that institution. The Lincoln Institute for the Colored at Jefferson City secured the same appropria- tion made at the session of 1899, which was $30,590. The Fruit Experiment Station at Moun- tain Grove, Wright County, which was es- teblished under a recent law, will have the sum of $20,475 to develop the great fruit orchards of Missouri. Brom this statement it will be seen that Missouri educational centers have fared ex- ceptionally well at the hands of the Legis- lature. Quite a number of amendments were offered for additional appropriations, but all of them were voted down. Chairman Hamilton of the appropriation | committee stated on the floor of the Hlouse that with these appropriations the state revenue fund would be short 3237.00. The vote sending the bill to engrossment | was practically unanimous. The prompt poacnae of the bills In both the House and | enate is now assured. Commerpial Travelers Met.

PEKIN, Ill., March 2.—The evidence in the trial of Samuel Moser for the murder of his wife and three little boys on Sun- day evening, May 13, 1900, was ¢elosed this evening at 5 o’clock. Arguments to the jury will be made Monday. The defense has introduced both expert and non-expert testimony tending to in- dicate the insanity of the defendant. It has shown insanity prevalent in the rela- tionship of his mother. One physician stated Moser was a paranoiac and further said: “He is a dangerous man to be at large in any community.” It-showed that Moser bought a revolver five years ago with the express purpose of killing his family. Dr. Schenck of Pekin, after having ex- amined Moser, says he is not insane. The manner of the commission of the crime, the deliberation and efforts to escapé convince him it was a deliberate murder. Moser caressed his little niece on the way to jail tonight. His wife’s three sisters fol- lowed him into the jail, and such a scene as was enacted is seldom seen. One of the women wept hysterically. Moser was in a pitiful plight and wept bitterly, It was with the greatest persuasion that he was forced to go into his cell. As he did he waved a good-by to his sisters-in-law and then burst into tears and even cried aloud. This is the first time any of Moser’s wife's relatives have talked to him since the be- ginning of the trial, and he could gcarcely be torn from them. The general opinion is that Moser will get a penitentiary sentence. —— Bear This in Mind!

LOUIS Sn 3, 1901 THE ROMANCE Found a Refuge in St. Louis When a Love Affair Drove Him From Germany; Won Fame and For- tune Here as a Painter: Died Here in Loneliness and Left His Money to a Young Man Who Had Been Kind to OUIS JOHANN AUGUST SCHULTZE, 'e a St. Louis bachelor artist, found dead in his lonely home at Seven- teenth and Grattan streets on the morning of Feb. 6, left his fortune of $25,000 and a collection of 60 paintings to Dr. Helmuth Kinner, a young physician of 1103 Rutger street, a casual friend who had been kind to him. Mr. Schultz? had a score of friends as close to him is the young Man he has en- riched. Some of these he knew before his heir was bora. Others helped him to ac- cumulate wealth. Others gave him the en- tre to fine homes. Still others were his art pupils or co-workers in art. Rut a single act of kindness prompted the old artist to leave his entire wealth to one young man| Years ago Dr. Kinner sought to cheer the loneliness of the old fellow’s life by asking him to accompany walk on a Sunday afternoon. That walk and the symputhy which planned it have now profited Dr. Kinner quite a handsome fortune. The life story of Louis Schultze ts a very, simple tale exemplifying the greatness of little things. A little exhibition of genius won him an education in art; a lightly given and broken love promise prompted him to hide himself from his people itn an- other land, to live there in a most retired and humble way, and to transfer to every picture he painted that somberness which filled his life; a little indication of kindly interest in him caused him to give his for- tune of $25,000 and his collection of paint- ings and sketches to Dr. Helmuth Kinner, who is 27 years old, is single and lives at 1103 Rutger street. Louis Schultze was a prominent figure in St. Louis for almost fifty years. He was widely known as a landscape painter, and his portraits are in many of the foremost and oldest St. Louls homes. The Missouri : ; ety alone has 35 paintings by him on a . ‘are in Chicago, New York . and Hoston. and still others are scattered ' ot~ahroughout the West. Many persons in St. Louis knew him up to the night of his death. The story of his life must be pref- * aced with a picture of him as they saw him. many as his intimate friends, others only casually meeting him and the greater num- ber only knowing of him ina professional wise as an artist. He was 81. He was short and very strong. His heavy hair and beard were white, and his eyes were like candles of kindness, showing melancholy § depths. He was strange. He shunned the society of women. Pictures of pretty women were not in the Yst of subjects he would of his own amuse- ment paint. He lived a dual social life, plunging into utter loneliness in his home life and his work and still having friends he loved to be with and the entre to many of St. Louis’ best homes. He was modest to the extent of refusing to participate in anything in which his friends sought to do him honor. He visited delightedly the homes of men who were his close friends, but always desired that he be permitted to pass in and out simply and without the slightest ostentation. He was rich, but his life was most humble. He was a bachelor, and always lived alone. He made punctual- ity a habit, and continually sought avenues of friendship untraversed by the bustling world. He was ruggedly honest. He had his price for every picture he painted, and if he could not sell it for that, to the very cent, he would store it away or give it to a friend. He was very proud, and not even his most intimate friends ever heard from him the story of the great disappointment which prompted him to plunge into that life which, but for the genius he had and the admirers it attracted, would have been hermit-like as life can be lived. He has not painted to any extent in the last ten or twelve years, but he gave instructions to @rt pupils up to the day preceding his death and maintained a liv ely interest in art even When he had retired. He frequented the Btudios of the city and the homes of his friends whenever he ventured out, and friends frequehtiy went for him and took him to the theater and opera, which he Much enjoyed. All time else he spent alone, @ven dying alone with no knowledge among those about him that he was ill. This ts the life story of Louis Schultze as it has been related to the Sunday Post-Dis- Patch by Dr. Helmuth Kinner, his heir; Attorney George w. Taussig, his lawyer and advisor; Dr. Hugo Kinner, his friend, and others who knew him intimately, each contributing something toward the whole: Mr. Schultze was born near the German city of Berlin. His father was keeper of the castle of a German baron. As a youth young Schultze in little ways exhibited an apenas for art, and the baron his father re sent him to Berlin to study. There » ® girl at the castle, the nobleman’s aughter, and the young artist had an un- derstanding with her that some day she would become his wife. There was a Cone , Siderable difference between their stations in life, but Schultze was fast winning fame in his art work and would some day, they reasoned, become a nobleman himself. His first great test of merit was in an exhibi- Uon at the Berlin Academy, He won sec- d prize in & numerous field of contestants ad was jubilant with his success.

He finally attained to the position in which he judged himself entitled to ask for his sweetheart and returned to Berlin to find the promise which had been everything to him had been lightly broken, and the young woman had been won and wed by a wealthy man. It was then that Louis Schultze withdrew from his native land and his successful work there to bury himself away in the midst of America, where he was to live for 45 years a life which often puzzled those who thought they understood him best. He reached St. Louis in 1856. He went to work to secure recognition, and his paint- ings soon won favor. From_the breaking out of the Civil war until 1880 he labored with ever-increasing success. Schultze landscapes and portraits were in demand in and out of the city, selling for from $100 to $500. One of them sold in Chicago for $600, subsequently going to New York City. At the time of his withdrawal from Ber- lin Mr. Schultze had risen to a most en- viable position in German art circles. He counted as his intimate friends some of the best-known men in Germany. Even after he came to this country he corresponded with Alexander Von Humboldt. Carl Becker, the German artist, wrote to him regularly up to the time of his death a year ago. He was also a regular correspondent with Begas, the present court painter at Berlin. He led a dual life in St. Louis for many years. In the neighborhood where he lived he was Louis Schultze, patter, a strange unsociable recluse, who worked and lived alone, apparently upon slender means. He frequently went out in the evening, at sucif times faultlessly dressed, and returned late at night, but whither or why he went none of his neighbors knew: On the other hand, he was Louis Schultze, artist, a man sought after by the most .exclusive circles in St. Louis. His landscapes and portraits graced many parlors. Men of wealth invited him to their homes to dinners. Gracious women sought to do him honor. Between these opposites of his daily life Mr. Schultze finally settled upon a compro- mise middle ground. He left his humble quarters on Olive street for more preten- tious apartments on Grattan street. And he limited his social life to visiting a few men who were his close friends, making it con- ditional upon his coming at all that he be permitted to come and go simply as he lived, without special preparation being made for his entertainment or other per- sons being invited in to meet him. He fol- lowed this course for years, For 15 years he spent every Friday evening with the late Giles F. Filley. Wednesdays he was a guest at dinner at the home of William H. Thom- son, cashier of the Boatmen’s Bank. Sun- days he took breakfast with George Taussig, his attorney and the manager his finances. His Sunday dinners he ate with Dr. Hugo Kinner of 1108 Rutger He was an intimate friend of the family, and was a visitor at one of the cas homes once a week. On the Sth day of July he left for many successive hunt and fish with friends in Wisconsin. His friends had often wondered what he would do with his money. Mr. Taussig had invested some of it for him with consider- able profit, He spent but little, his only ex- travagant outlay being for the annual hunt- ing and fishing trips in Wisconsin. His friends, almost without exception, were wealthy people, who had no thought that Mr. Schultze would leave them anything. He had no felatives in the United States, and not even his most intimate friends had heard him say anything of his family more than that he knew his parents were dead. He one time expressed the belief that his brother might still be living in Germany. In the course of his visits to the home of Dr. Hugo Kinner, one of the first friends he made in St. Louis, he made the acquaint- ance of the doctor's son, Helmuth, now a practicing physician of 27. To this young man Mr. Schultze left his entire estate. His heir talked to the Sunday Post-Dispatch: By DR. HELMUTH KINNER. | HAVE known Mr. Schultze all my life. dinner with Dr. of 1103 Rutger street, Lucas l.u- years lo He was a frequent visitor at our home, and we liked him very much. He came here every Sunday for dinner. He was a very lonely old fellow, and I have felt very sorry for him many times. He seemed to have been capable of accomplishing s0 much and to have despaired in it all be- cause of a disappointment when his ambi- tion and youth were strongést. He was very retiring, and he knew no pleasure equaling the quiet companionship of people who loved him. Yes, I know why: he made me his heir. I became attached to him in youth. One Sun.- day, when we had finished dinner and the family was going out, I saw that Mr. Schultze would be left alone. It seemed such a natural thing for‘the old gentleman to be alone that even his best friends were likely to forget at times that they were leaving him so. Sympathy prompted me to ask Mr. Schultze to spend the afternoon with me. I shal} never forget the gratitude that shone from his kindly eyes. Ever after that day we were close friends, and hé. had told us that I should be his heir. We were none the less surprised when we learned that he had given me everything, all his money and his paintings and sketches, I cannot attribute it to anything more than the sympathetic interest 1 naturally took in him. We saw each other a great deal, went to the opera together every Monday night, and went fishing and hunting together every summer. Still I could not expect that Mr. Schultze would make me his sole heir, and I was surprised when I learned he had done so. He was undoubtedly very close to me and made me his intimate friend, but he was very old, and, understanding his eccentrici- ties as I did, I buiit no expectations of in- heriting his wealth. He was a fine old character to those who knew him well. He represented an old school of artists and gentlemen we see but seldom in these days. He had been disap- pointed in a love matter in Europe and nad been so grieved that he never afterward at- tempted to cultivate the favors of women. He considered his art a gentleman’s call- ing and his pictures worth just what he asked for them. He fixed the price, and it was offensive to him to have anyone offer him less. He had two paintings several years ago for which he asked $100 each. He was offered $150 for them, and, so hurt was he to be offered less than he thought them worth, he gave them away. He did his last painting for his own amusement, and, not needing the money, made little or no at- tempt to sell his pictures. The last time he did make an attempt to sell some of them he found them much less in demand than formerly, because’ they were products of the old school of art, which sought to pic- ture things just as they were and exagger- ate the beauty of nothing. Mr. Schultze was most affectionate in dis- position, He was all alone in the world and felt it keenly, and when anyone went out of his way to show him some kindness his gratitude was beautifully expressed. I shall always believe he made me his sole heir because of the sympathetic mood which prompted me to go to him that afternoon at our home and ask him if he would not like to spend the afternoon with me. We spent .many afternoons together in after years, and on Sundays, whe 1e weather permitted, we walked together regularly; but he never forgot the first time, nor shall I forget it, for he has rewarded a very lit- tle kindness with all he made and accumu- lated through his busy and gentle life.

Yet he had to go out and meet those who wore Specs and had these high Mansard Foreheads. Sometimes he found himself in the Front Room where every one was expected to discuss Liter- ature, Art, Music and the Difficulty of getting good Kitchen Help. | This Man was a Pin-Head in a good many Respects, but he was as Wise as a Serpent. A man does not have to be stocked up with Information in order to be Wise. This \Man was what Edmund Clarence Stedman would call a Piker. A Piker is one who gets into the Game on Small Capital and Lets On to be hold- ing back a huge Reserve. A Piker is usu- ally Safe when he sagatiates among the Well-Bred because they are too Polite to call a Bluff. A Piker always has his entire Stock of Goods in the Show Window. When it came to Music the Piker did not know the difference betwecn a Fugue and a Cantata. Such knowledge of Litera- ture as he could boast was picked up by FERN FABLE OF THE WISE PIKE WH ; Written by George Ade for the Sunday Post-Dispatch. . reading the Posters in front of Book- NCE there was a man who wore a” Stores. The average Katy-Did had about as much Art Education as he could have Spread if-it had come to a Show-Down, but he never allowed it to come. He had about as much Business in an Assem- blage of cultivated Chautauquans as a hod “Mrs. Hester Kazam, Author Unpublished Poems.”’ = _———L= SF == = of Many man with a sagged $2.00 bill would have in Wall Street. Yet he managed to cut Figure Eights over the Thin Ice and he had the name of being one of the Braini- vitation to the Evening Session of the Olympian Circle of Hens. The Piker knew the Value of the Stock Phrase. And the way he could raise a Dust and dodge out of a Tight Place was a little Bit of All Right. One evening the Piker went to call on Mrs. Hester Kazam, author of many un- published Poems and the boss Diana of the Tuft-Hunters. At the Kazam Home, which. is rigged up with Red Blankets and Green Lamps so as to be Oriental, he bumped into Henrietta: Hunter Haw, who will be femembered as the Young Lady who poured at the Afternoon Re- ception to F. Hopkinson Smith. Miss Haw reclined at half length in the Turkish Corner and asked the Piker what he thought of Sienkiewicz. ‘The Piker knew that he had heard that name sprung somewhere before, but if he had tried to Pronounce it he would have gone to the Floor.e He didn’t know whether Sienkiewicz was the author of “Lovers Once but Strangers Now” or “The Gentleman from Arkansaw.” How- ever he was not to be Feazed. He knew the kind of Conversational Parsley that is needed to Garnish a full-blown Intel- lectual Vacuum, and he passed some of it to Henrietta. He said he liked Sienk, so far as the Psychological Analysis was concerned, but it sometimes occurred to him that there was a lack of Insight and Broad That is the Style of Vapor calculated to keep a Young Woman anchored right in the Turkish Corner and make her believe she has met the Really and Truly Gazip. “A Tall Man With a Low Collar Talked of Tschaikowsky.’’ The Piker unreeled a little more of the same kind. He said that the Elabo- ration of Incident showed.a certain Mod- icum of Skill, but there was not enough Plus-Human Sympathy in the Coloring oi the Subtle Motives. When the Piker_ got rid of this he was always Relieved, for it is an Awful Thing to Memorize and carry around with you. Afterward Miss Haw went out and told her Girl Friends that the Piker was Terrible Deep. When they brought up Music, that was where the Piker lived. He could get in early and stay late and never Trip him- self up. He had attended a couple of Concerts and at one time boarded with a Lady who played the Autoharp. One Evening when he was out with a few People who were such Thordéugh Musicians that they seemed Sour about something all the time a Tall Man with a Low Collar asked him if he had heard the latest Thing by Tschaikowsky. It he had made it Charles K. Harris the Piker might have been with him. But he never turned a Hair. “Impressive, isn’t it?” he said, having learned how to Spar for Wind, without leaving an Opening. “Yes, bat it didn’t get into me the way Vogner does,” replied the Tall Par- ty. This was the Cue for the Piker to in- sert his Speech on Vogner. elie said he preferred Vogner any day in the Week on account of the distinct Appeal to the Intellectual Side and the Atmosphere of Mysticism, whatever that was. He said he couldn’t listen to Vog- ner without going into a Cold Sweat and Chewing the Buttons off his Gloves, par- with a Broad and Comprehensive Vit- tuosity and such Mastery of Technique as to abolish all suggestion of the Intef- mediary and bring ome in direct Gom- munion with the Soul-Moods.

One touch, one *clasp, a pressure of thumb to thumb, and diseases or infirmities of long standing, in some. cases, disappear as if by magic. In other cases, not so easily cured, she gradually relieved the patient by power ex- erted through her hands. Such is her statement. Of her methods or the result of them the public knows little or nothing. This is the young woman whose fame as a healer extraordinary has been heralded from one end of the country to the other for a dozen years, and who has been pro- claimed as the Joan of Arc of the Yaqui Indians of Mexico. Because of her alleged great power over this people she was ban- ished by the Mexican government and can- not return, except under severe penalty. While in St. Louis she lived quietly at 3102 Thomas street, with her friend and inter- preter, Mrs. Otto Crimm, also a native ol Mexico, and the latter's husband. Santa Teresa, as she is lovingly called by her Indian and Mexican followers, firm- ly declined to reveal the names of her St. Louis patients, excepting that of Mrs. Wli- liam Jones of 4500 Cook avenue, to whom she bore a letter of introduction when she arrived in the city. Mrs. Jones, according to her own state- ment, had suffered two years from chills and fever. Until Santa Teresa commenced to treat her she had scarcely been able ‘to be out of bed. After two applications of the young senora's strange power Mrs. Jones was able to kneel in prayer—a posi- tion she had not been able to assume for several years. Mrs. Shortwell, a daughter of Mrs. Jones, became acquainted with Santa Teresa in San Francisco and beiieved in her. When she learned that the young woman wa*s coming to St. Louis she gave her a letter to her mother. Now Mrs. Jones’ faith in Santa Teresa is quite as strong as that of her daughter. This Mexican “‘saint’’ had among her pa- tients the scion of a wealthy famuy of B5t. Louis—a young man who has been afflicted for several years, and whom the best spe- clalists in the country have failed to re- lieve. One day his mother went to Santa Teresa and, through her interpreter, said: “If you will treat my son and say noth- ing about it unless you effect a cure I will This dark-eyed young woman is the ons who, a few years ago, and evén until recently, was hailed as the Joan of Are of the Yaqui Indians, in revolt against the government of Mexico. From New York to San Francisco page upon page was printed concerning her exploits and the wonderful power she was believed to exert over these Indians.. She was pictured variously as a femaie warrior, a religious fanatic, a divine healer and a saint, sometimes astride of a horse, waving a pistol with one hand and in the other holding aloft an image of the Virgin Mary, spurring her followers on to bloody battle, and at other times in somber garb, stretching forth her hands to touch and heal the sick, the lame, the halt and the blind, whether Indian, Mexican or Ameri- Can. It was asserted that Santa .Teresa in- cited the Yaquis to revolt against the Mex- ican government. It was claimed that she alone was responsible for the bloody war- fare with which that country has been af- ficted for several years. Whenever any trouble came up in the state of Sonora, where she lived, Santa Teresa was blamed for It. In 1891 she was banished by the Mexican government and went to Arizona. There she continued her magic healing, aided by a power which even she says she does not understand. : Hier sentence of banishment caused the Tomachi Indians to go on the warpath. In order to restore peace the authorities not only revoked the decree of excile, but in- vited Santa Teresa to return. That was in 1893. Thousands of Mexicans and Indians flocked around her. To Cabora. where she had headquarters, they went in caravans, taking with them “the sick,. the blind and the crippled, Many are said to have been healed. The governor of the state of Sonora be- came alarmed at these demonstrations and urged her to quit the country. Santa Te- resa consented, and went to Presidio del Norte, Mexico, where she continued to ex- ercise her healing powers. So numerous were her followers that the authorities there became alarmed. Santa Teresa was arrested for disturbing the peace. Under promise to leave Mexico she was liberated. Since that tima she has resided at Clifton, Ariz., El P, Tex., San Francisco, Cai. nye @ther and now she is in st ulis.

Some arbitration or been in effect agreements have years. "heir effects are daily felt in St. Louis. The recent action taken by the National Publishers’ Association indicated the trend of modern Industrial thought. This assocta- tion has submitted to the International Typographical Union a proposition to arbi- trate all troubles arising in connection with the work in which their members are en- gaged. The plan is that all labor disputes between them shal! be taken before a local board of arbitration for settlement, and then, in the event of failure to an agreement, shall be appealed to a national composed of the presidents of the d the association and a third per- these two shall select. he printers and publishets reach gotiation and arbitration. Both the workers and the employers of workers are looking to this means for an end to strikes and lockouts. The stove manufacturers of America have had an arbitration agreement with their molders almost ten years; the foundrymen and their founders have had such am agree- ment five years; the machinists made such an agreement with the machine workers less than a year ago. These industries employ a vast army of men. In all of them the agreements provide that there shall be no strike or lockout un- til the conferees of both sides shall have met in conference and made every possible endeavor to effect a settlement of the dis- pute or demand. The’ Sunday Post-Dispatch has made a careful inquiry to ascertain what progress arbitration,has made and is making in St. Louis and other American cities; what practical tests have been made; what the workers and their’ employers think of the plan, and what are the prospects for a more general application of arbitration methods in the immediate future. N. O. Nelsori of St. Louts, president of the N. O. Nelson Maaufacturing Co., par- ticipated in the conference which resulted Wi an agreement between the machinists and their employes. Mr. Nelson is a recog- ‘ nized authority upon such matters. He said to the Sunday’ Post-Dispatch: By N. O. NELSON. T HE tendency toward arbitration in in- dustrial disputes is growing every year. The English, who were ahead of us in the, organization of the employers of labor, are also ahead of.us in this, but we are ad- vancing fast. The stove molding industry must be ac- credited with having taken the initiative in American in the arbitration of industrial disputes. The workers and the manufac- turers reached an arbitration agreement ten years ago. Up to that time there was no other American industry, I believe, which had been so afflicted with strikes as had the stove molding industry, Labor troubles had followed each other in such rapid suc- cession that both the employers and the workers recognized the imperative neces- sity for some means of considering differ- ences upon a common ground. As a result of this realization conferees of both sides held a conference and drew up an agree- ment to arbitrate differences. This agree- ment was ratified, and it has been in effect ever since, saving the employers’ and the workers incalculable injury from strikes and converting the stove molding industry from one of industrial chaos into one of the most peaceful and best regulated of Amer- ican industries. The founders and the men who employed them were the first extensive body of tradesmen to profit by the example of the stovemakers. Five years ago they entered into an agreement for arbitration. The re- mult has been most satisfactory. Less than a year ago the machinists and their employes agreed upon arbitration. At that time there were two strikes in the in- dustry, one at Cleveland and the other at Chicago, this latter threatening to become @ very serious affair. The arbitration agree- ment in the trade had the almost instan- taneous effect of settling the Chicago and Cleveland strikes, and it has since been a means of preserving peace in the trade. We frequently hear that the arbitration conference promises more for the. employer ‘than the employe. Our agreement in the machin industry has not proved this to be true. We have had peace upon both sides, and the workers have gained for themselves a nine-hour workday. When we understand q that ten hours has always been the work- a“ day in: American factories we appreciate that the workers in the machine factories governed by this agreement have been con- siderably benefited. The. machine workers have secured this reduction in the workday withouv' © ating trouble of any kind. Their req’ f did not go even as far as ar- * secured it by negotiation.

If he cannot arrange a settlement by con- ciliation or negotiation he calls upon Wal- ter L. Pierce of Brooklyn, the president of our national organization, and Mr. Pierce ecnfers with William O'Connell, national! president of the workers, The dispute is still in negotiation. It wili not .have advanced te arbitration until the national presidents fail to agree and call upon a third person to confer with. them. The dispute has now reached the supreme court of our industry. If there is no agree- ment here, arbitration will have failed. But the chances of failure are far outnumbered by the chances ofa settlemient. It is al- most always possible to reach an agree- ment in some one of the several confer- ences. held. In the majority of cases this settlement will be reached in negotiation. Extreme cases, where the national presidents fail to agree and call in a neutral party to umpire the dispute, are rare. At any rate, we shall profit on both sides by deliberation. We shall not fly into qa rage and have lockouts and strikes before every recourse of nego- tiation, conciliation and arbitration’ shall have been exhausted. Arbitration is the common-sense plan for averting strikes. It must appeal as such to every thinking man. There are manufac- turers who believe they can defeat a strike without submitting to arbitration and workers who believe themselves sufficiently powerful to compel compliance with de- mands, but a victory either way is but tem- porary at best and contributes nothing tu the structure of equity upon which must be the bulwark of the man who employs and the man who works. The first essential of successful arbitra- tion must be thorough organization upon both sides where there is organization upon one. That there must be, so far as is possible, a full representation of the indus- try in the organizations whose conferees shall arbitrate disputes. Let us suppose, for instance, that there is a loose and indifferent- organization among the employers in-a trade which is threatened with strikes. The employers of labor in the organization must be governed in some degree, at least, by what is going on among those of their competitors who are outside the organization. The man who is in does not watn to make concessions not enforced upon the man who is out. He feels that he cannot afford to permit an increase in wages, for ‘nstance, which shall necessitate his paying his workers more than the workers of some of his active is, Apigation of labor and the seoempetitors outsi@e the -organization are paid. But if the employers of labor in the trade are well represented in the organiza- tion—if all of them or almost all of them are there, how much easier it is for the employers of labor to proceed toward an agreement. The element of personal loss is eliminated. Jones, Smith, Johnson and all his competitors are affected. They are up- on common ground with him. Becapise they are affected just as he is affected, he feels better able to concede” something -to the workers. Under these conditions it becomes with him a mere matter of buying and selling on the terms which competition. shall fix. So with his competitors. The organization of the employers of labor must be as thorough as the organization of the workers. Else the employer is pressed between the de- mands of hig workers upon one hand and upon the other by the more fortunate lot of his competitor. The organization among the stove mold- ers, the foundrymen and the machinery manufacturers is, so far as I have been able to learn, very representative in each case. The employers in each organization have sufficient representation to céntrol. They do not suffer from competition with- out, a competition which, were it strong enough, could make it impossible for the employer to grant any request his em- ployes may make. The sheet steel rollers and the glass bot- tle manufacturers of the United States co- operate with their employes in the annual wage scale adjustment plan. That is, the conferees of the manufacturers and the workers meet every year and fix the wage scale for the next year of work. The arbitration plan | consider a step further than this. It will do away with that annual period of uneasiness which must precede the meeting of the conferees. Just prior to their meeting there are likely to be rumors of threats or even actual threats upon both sides. This is not a healthful or a perfect condition. We must advance a step beyond it. Arbitration, the methods of the courts applied to our great industries, what we are approaching and must eveytually have. It is the common-sense plan. It familiarizes the employer of labor with the actual needs and necessities of la- bor, and enables the worker to better ap- preciate the situation. of his employer. Peace comes out of compromise. of un- selfish appreciation of the rights of others. As reasonable people we can meet and talk these difficulties over and can arrange them.

It seemed an industry peculiarly susceptible of controversy be- tween the employer and the worker. * Since the agreement was made these con- troversies have almost entirely disappeared. When they do come up we almost always succeed in settling them in conciliatory ne- gotiation, without advancing to actual arbi- tration. Ll cannot recall a case that has gone as far as our court of last resort. Just when the agreement was made there were several strikes on, and one of these may possibly have been settled by actual arbitration. I have not known of another. Whatever it may prove to be in other ‘in- dustries, arbitration, even in its ad- vanced stagesS of negotiation, has been re- markably successful with the manufactur- ers and makers of stoves. The principal stove manufacturers of the country have a separate organization cre- ated for the purpose of settling labor dis- putes. We call it our defense association. Chauncey Castle of Quincy, Lil., is the pres- ident. This defense association represents every considerable stove manufactory in the country. Its president is the official repre- sentative of the association in all disputes concerning the terms upon which men in our shops are employed, Its deliberations affect several thousand men working at the Stove trade in St. Louis, Belleville (and Quincy. y I believe in these arbitration agreements. I am sure every stove manufacturer in our association believes in them. The men who work for us have perhaps as great faith in them as we do. They may not walk out on a strike without first acquainting us with what they, want and giving us an oppor tunity to’ settle the dispute, either by cor- ciliatory ‘negotiation or actual arbitration, Neither can we lock them out until the same methods shall have been employed to keep peace. ThiS prevents hasty action. The rashest action we have in industrial affairs is hasty action. When men rush out of a factory on strike, without having first exhausted ‘all conciliatory tactics, it is dit- ficult to reach any agreement with them. But when they keep cool, staying at work while their demands are being considered, there is a much better chance for a satis- factory settlement. Adherence to the terms of such agrements as we have in the stove industry insures deliberation, and delibera- tion is an almost unfailing assurance of peace, A‘year ago the workers in our polishing department asked an increase in wages. Without our arbitration agreement we would have had a strike. An appeal was made to the president of the national or- ganization of the workers and the president of the Stove Manufacturers’ Defense As- sociation. These gentlemen came to S8t. Loujls at once. Mr. Martin Fox, who is still at the head of the national organization in which the local unions of both the mo!ders and polishers center, represented the work- ers at that time. A short conference at oné) of the St. Louis hotels resulted in an agree- ment to let the superintendent of our fac- tory settle the dispute. The workers agreed to this. They had confidence in their na- tional president, Mr. Fox.

The best thinkers, who are also charged with the trying duties of pgactical arbitration, have about decided that unless satisfactory settlements can be reached by an equal number of representa- tives of employer and employe, wkhout an umpire, the conference would better fail.

In Chicago, although $18,000,000 was spent in improvements, very little is left of a per- manent char This example should be sufficient Louis. This city should derive a lasting benefit in permanent structures, and, with proper precautions, fully 75 per cent of the invest- ments may be made permanent. I suggest a grand triumphal arch, to be given the place of honor in the grounds. Nothing more appropriate in commemora- tion of the event could be designed. The Eads bridge has added much to the repu- tation of Bt. Louls, which was, for a 1 time, know’ as the city at the large brite This arch, many times larger than any in existence, and designed on new lies of thought, would make the city even better known than Eads bridge has. Located as St. Louis is in the Louisana Purchase ter- ritory, the largest city nearest the Mason and Dixon line, in the center of population of the country, it is particularly well fitted for a monument, gathering within records of all historic transactions between Spain and America, the North and South and)! other history of the country. The heroic size in which this monument has been designed can only be appreciated by comparing it with other existing struc- tures of its kind, of which the largest to- day is the triumphal arch of Paris, This Parisian arch could be placed inside one of the towers or buttresses of the one I pro- pose.

The association has therefore sought to incorporate and empha- size the educational idea in all of its in- dustrial departments. Women are taught to cook, to sew, to nurse, to launder. to patch clothing, to be orderly, and to @eb- serve cleanliness in all things. Women who work for their present relicf in our indus- trial departments are thus qualified for a more remunerative service in the regular industries of the city, while the girls taught the economics of the kitchen. wy this means the association not only dis- courages the idea of getting something for rothing, but inculcates the spirit of inde- pendence and gives to those to whom it ministers that social and moral uplift whish comes from a consciousness of having been a factor in bettering one’s condition in life. are OF THE was 9201.

She is an applicant for a divorce in the Circuit a southwest Mis- RS, ROSE O'N Court of Taney County, souri county, which has no railroad, nor ‘any wagon roads save long used trails over Ozark mountains. The petition charges Gray Latham, defendant, with drunkenness and with hav- ing a violent temper—a combination which, she avers, has made it impossible for her to live with him longer. He is @ New York broker and is rich. The case will be tried before Judge Ne ville at Forsythe in April. Mrs. Latham is a remarkable woman with a remarkable history. She is a bril- liant illustration of. how genius will rise above unfavorable circumstances and make its way in the world without the influence of money or friends. She is half a child of the plains and half of the mountains and it is small wonder that the poetic sense is highly developed in her. She was orn on a Nebraska ranch and lived there until she was 15 years old— the with the spirit of self-reliance and freedom with which the air of the plains country Is charged. Then the little fortune of her family melted away to nothing in two years of ad- versity and O'Neill, her father, with his wife and children, moved to the Ozark Mountain region of Missouri. There she drank at the fountains of na- ture and romance and the draughts were all that was needed to inspire the soul of this thoughtful, self-reliant girl with the hope of laying the world at her feet in some way, of making herself mistress of fortune and achieving, through her own frail ef- forts, position in the world that had been denied to her. The O'Neill family wandered for some time in the Ozark Mountains of Missguri. They found it hard living there, The ‘goil was stingy and yielded but meagerly to Tee harvesters. It was currently reported that some good land was to be found in Taney County, but the repogt did not locate it and the O'Neill family, which wanted a claim of it, was compelled to do so by experiment- ing from year to year. Finally O'Neill found a tract that was to his liking. It lay 40 miles south of Chad- wick in Taney County. Chadwick was the nearest railroad point. It is the end of a short railway from Springfield. — Miss O'Neill, then pretty and 17, with naive country manners, accompanied her father when he went to Forsythe to prove his claim to the property where he had de- cided after years of search and experience to build his home and start life anew. While at Forsyth O'Neill subscribed for the county paper. That paper was O'Neill. She had never written before—in fact, the struggle for existence in which she was engaged with the other members of her family, gave her little opportunity for any- thing but work. But, when the first issue of the county paper came into her home, a longing was born in her soul to write some- thing. And she did write something. She seized upon the trip to Forsyth as her subject, which was a prosaic enough beginning, and described all the beauties of nature as they were manifested in glens and mountains and rivers on the road. She described them with a simplicity and fidel- ity to detail that made her story charming and it was reprinted in the metropolitan papers The-success of this experiment at writing resulted in other compositions upon life in the Ozarks which attracted local attention. Applause was the wine of life to Miss O'Neill and, after this taste of it, she could not exist without it, But she was not Ssatis- fied with the honors that Taney .County citizens could heap upon her. She must have a broader field in which to operate. She soon learned that genius is not read- ily recognized, even by those who are per- petually looking for it. The success that had raised her hopes so high back in Taney County came slowly in New York. She tried newspaper work first, and, fail- ing in that, she took to the stage. But she was a more indifferent actress than news- paper woman, and failed ap that, too, al- though she was given an engagement with Ezra Kendall’s company, in which plenty of opportinity was afforded her to distin- guish herself. One day somebody told Miss O'Neill she was wasting her time on histrionics, when she could do better work with her pencil. “Take to illustrating,”’ was the friend's advice, and Miss O'Neill wisely followed it. She -was successful from the first in this and her success has been growing in meas- ure since. She is now one of the most wide- ly known illustrators in the United States, because of the strong individuality of her work and the frequency of its appearance in magazines. All her work is characteristic and those acquainted with it know it before they look the making of Miss are -receiving an annual interest of 7 per cent.

Nearly seventeen months* have passed since it became known that this person is a woman and not 4 Man, as she represented herself, yet not one human be- ing has been found to come forward and BAY: Z “I know this woman In every state, almost in every county of the United States, the story of Ellis Glenn, the daring masqucrader, has been told. Thousands of pictures of her have beén published, both in male and female attire, and vast numbers of people in all parts of the country have become famillar with the expression of her face. From a nine-day wonder she developed into a source of con- stant perplexity. A hundred thousand voices have inquired: “Who is this woman?” None has been able to tell. Where is there one so poor or so despised that he has not at least one friend to establish his identity? Where is there one so humble that even one human being does not know his face? Travel where you will, be it even to the ends of the earth, at the most unexpected times and places you will run across ,some- body you know, It may be your next-door neighbor in St. Louis whom you find trav- ersing the plains of Siberia. It may bea friend of your childhood whom you find viewing the beauties of Naples, or you may encounter a chance acquaintance on the crest of the Matterhorn or on Mont Blanc. This is the way of the world. Yet in the case of Ellis Glenn we find one person whom nobody seems to know. The most strenuous efforts nave been made by pri- vate persons, by newspapers and by offi- cers of the law in several states to estab- lish her identity, yet not one voice has been raised in reply. Not for one instant has the veil of mystery been lifted. Of the more than 76,000,000 people in the United States not one has been found who is able to say: “I know Ellis Glenn. I know her nativity, her parentage, her age.” Yet today, in the town of Parkersburg, W. Va., Ellis Glenn, attired as a woman, goes about her daily life, site at meat with other boarders, walks along the streets in perfect freedom—being out on bond—spends her time in idleness and receives from an unknown source weekly remittances of money with which to pay the expenses of living. Who is Ellis Glenn? Who is this daring masquerader, who even went to the extent of making love to an Illinois girl and became engaged to mar- ry her; who ran away before the time came, and who, brought back to face a charge of forgery, pleaded guilty and was sent to the Chester penitentiary, where her sex was re- vealed? Bscaping justice in Illinois, she was turned over to the authorities at Parkers- burg, W. Va., where she was charged with fraud in raising a note from $400 to $1400, and was taken back there. That was in December, 1899. Her attor- neys, one of whom is Charlie Caldwell, fur- nished bond for her, and ever since that time she has been at liberty, awaiting ‘rial, Her case has been postponed several “mes on various pretexts. It was finally set for the February. term, 1901, but Judge Jackson, before whom the case was to have been called, died just before court was to have convened. Besides, Ellis Glenn made @ifidavit that there were four witnesses— two in Ohio and two in Illinois—upon whom she had been unable to obtain service. ese witnesses are expected testify that the Eliis Glenn whom they knew was un- doubtedly a man and therefore could not We the Ellis Glenn now. under indictment at Parkersburg.

Im that event she will go forth into the world again, free, and with her, forever re- echoing in her wake, will go the query, which may never be answered: “Who is Ellis Glenn?” THE ELLIS GLENN OF * THE PAST AND PRESENT LLIS GLENN, for some reason best known to himself, thought it best to plead guilty when his case was called at Hillsboro before Judge Dwight in No- vember,’ 1809, This he did and was given what is called an indetefminate sentence in the Chester penitentiary.

The recognition was mutual, but we did not speak. She was dressed in a long fur coat, a fur cap and a black skirt. She makes a much better looking man than she does a woman, because she is tall and has no shape, As a man, although her face was smooth, she made a good impression, for she was quick and brimful of energy. She never knew what it was to be idle. When she lived with the Dukes at Butler she was continually doing something. She papered the house, helped dig a_ cistern, worked in a field, chopped wood, suwld sew- ing machines, made her prospective bride’s wedding outfit, and did, in fact, everything that came to hand. ‘‘At Parkersburg, now that she is a wom- an again, for more than a year she has done nothing. It is said that she receives weekly a remittance large enough to cover all necessary expenses. Where this money comes from is a mystery. The woman with whom she boards says she has no idea. “In spite of the fact that she been there nearly 15 months and that repeated efforts have been made to-_identify her, not one person has been found who could reveal a single fact concerning the past life of this remarkable woman, “Where she ever lived, where she came from when she first entered that part of West Virginia, where she was born, who her antecedents are, where she obtained her education, why she chose to masquer- ade as a man, if she were ever married, and to whom, why she made love to and promised to marry 2 woman, why she pleaded guilty at Hillsboro, when a peni- tentiary sentence meant the certain revela- tion of her sex, who it is that furnishes her with money—all of these are things about Ellis Glenn which no mortal seems to know, and to which there is not the slight- est clew. “Nobody {n Parkersburg knows anything about the career of Ellis Glenn; who be- come known there as E. B. Glenn, until the time of her first appearance in that neigh- borhood in the summer of 1597. She re- mained there a year or more. At first she ran a barbershop there and afterward worked in a livery stable. After she left there, presumably, she came to Illinois. She is also said to be known in Ohio and Texas and to have friends in West Virginia. “For a time it was supposed that Ellis Gienn was Mrs. Cora Alice Cunningham Rader. This story was started at the Hills- boro street fair, when Mrs. Fullerton, now deceased, who then resided at Irving, seven miles from the county seat, positively identified Ellis Glenn, who had a booth at the street fair, as Cora Alice Rader, whose maiden name was Cunningham and who was married at Hacker's Valley, Webster County, in the eastern part of West Vir- ginia, to Melvill C. Rader, a farmer, wh afterward was murdered. : “Notwithstanding Mrs. Fullerton’s identi- fication was very positive and that inter- views from West Virgitla published at the time seemed to strengthen her statement, few people in Parkersburg believe that Ellis Glenn is Cora Alice Rader, because Cora Alice Rader, in all probability, is dead. “This is the statement and belief of her mother, Mrs. Amanda Miller, formerly Cun- ningham, whose pestoffice address is Addi- son, Webster County, W. Va. “Tiunter H, Moss, Jr., prosecuting at- torney at Parkersburg, does net believe that Ellis Glenn is Cora Alice Rader. “West Virginia editors, lawyers and sher- iffs who bave attempted to identify her as Cora Alice Rader have utterly failed. The theory that she is this woman has nothing to support it, and in West Virginia Ellis Glenn is just as much of a mystery as she is in Lllinois. “Glenn stil! sticks to the ridiculous twin brother story which she told when she was brought back to Hillsboro after it was am nounced that she had been drowned in 8t. Louls. “There, she declared, she met her twin brother, who had just come from Hillsboro (she having just arrived from Texss), and that he told her of the trouble he had gotten inte about the $2000 McLean forgery, oS J 7) : 4 Wigs 0 V6.4 * - as ~ “ en. “a , > ee fy RRS SS \ ~s BY pn etna ‘\ \ Y \ : \ \ ‘ =, a ~~. ° Wd $3 FLLA DUKE, G.LEnnN’s IDLINOIS OWEETHEART. aN “She, Ellis Glenn, determined to play a heroic part and save her brother from pun- ishment. Consequently she changed clothes with him and familiarized herself as much as possible with conditions in Montgomery County, 60 that she might the more readily pass for him. Therefore, although ecuiltless, she pleaded guilty and was sent to the peni- tentiary. There her sex was discovered. It was a simple matter, a case of heroism— to hear her tell] it. “There were so many faulty places in her story that nobody believed it. She became the laughing stock of the community on ac- count of it, but she only smiled and re- i ie either cannot or will not.” peated the story of her beloved twin broth- er, who was so remarkably like her that it was next to impossible to tell them apart, and for whom she had chosen to give up liberty. : “Now she is telling the same story in West Virginia, and she will endeavor to make a jury there believe that it was her twin brother who ‘raised’ the note and that she has come to suffer in his stead. “A strange woman is she, this Ellis Glenn, and it may be that her identity will never be established beyond a doubt. She is much too shrewd ever to give utterance word concerning herself.

At such times A Carrollton, Missouri, Man Believes That He Is the Man Who Fired the Fatal Shot on March’ 2, 1863. CARROLLTON, Mo., Feb. 26. Special Correspondence of'the Sunday Post-Dispatch. ID Frank 8. Rosenthal of Carrollton [) fire the shot that resulted in the death of Gen. Thomas Jonathan Jackson—better known under his sobriquet of ‘Stonewall’ Jackson? Rosenthal has asked this and over to himself since that fatal nignt of May 2, 1863, when the Marshal Ney of the army of the confederacy was mortally wounded by a picket guard of his own men on the field of Chancellorsville. it is an important question to Rosenthal —a question which, he says, he would give his entire fortune to have answered in one way, yet in the unanswerableness of which he finds a solace. Rosenthal is a dealer in hides and wool and has accumulated a considerable fortune at his business. He has lived in Carrollton since 1876 and is a reputable citizen of the community. The fact that the members »tf his own camp of Confederate veterans have never heard from his own lips the state- ment that he may be the slayer of Jackson is an earnest that he is not a mere seeker after n@gtoriety in making it. Only his most confidential friends have heard from him the tragic story upon which his fears are founded. Rosenthal, in those heroic days, made the question over kind of soldier that the father of Frederick the Great ransacked the earth to find—tall, molded in a superd form, clear-eyed, fear- less of death, conscious of the necessity of the most careful attention to discipline, even whefi it means self-sacrifice, in the making of an army. Time has. wrought great changes in his superb physique. He stoops as he wa_ks and complains of constant pain. “It is not so much the 58 years I bear as the weight of Yankee lead I have been car- rying around with me since that terrible day at Chancellorsville,”’ is his comment. Rosenthal served throughout the war with the Louisiana Tigers, one of the most fa- mous regiments of the old Stonewall! brigade. He enlisted in it at the time of its organization by Chief of Police W heat, afterwards its colonel, of New Orleans. Rosenthal says there is but one survivor besides himself of the picket guard that fired upon Jackson. He is 8. Solomon, a jeweler of Macon, Ga., with whom Rosen- thal keeps up correspondence. Here is Rosenthal’s story of the killing of Jackson and the part he may have piayed in it: HE incidents of that awfy! night are By FRANK S, ROSENTHAL. impressed upon my brain so vividly | that 1 shall never forget even the oushtest detail of them if I live so long as to forget everything else.

Then the men started to ride through our lines. The order had been made. It was impera- tive—nobody should pass through our lines, countersign or no countersign. We pickets didn't know whether the men on horseback were friends or foes. It made no difference to us which they might be. We were private soldiers with our duty measured out to us and bound to do it or die for not doing it. Our duty Was to keep friends and foes alike out of our picket lines. ness, There was not a man of us who would not gladly have given up his life to avoid what was to be done a second later if he had had any premonition of the great trag- edy. As the men started to spur their horses into our line nine gf us fired along the picket lines. P l would have given all my hope of efer- nity at that instant to have recalled that buliet from my gun from its course. It was the voice that answered the chal- lenge that startled me. l had heard it a thousand times the battle’s roar, always calling us on victory. It had been like the voice of an inspired one to me. It combined the gentleness of an angel with the power of a thunderbolt. And a bullet from my gun had sped on to blot out that life which was like the sun to his glofious brigade. I don't know whether my fellows who were stationed along the picket lines expe- rienced the same emotions that fell to me, but one volley was all that was fired. A man from Jackson's staff ran up and said we had shot our commander. Then, each man sent up a prayer to God that he be spared the knowledge that: he had been the slayer of his general if‘ he should be the one who had fired the [atal buliet. But three of the nine bullets hit their mark—two of them in the left shoulder and the third in the right hand, Nine bullets and but three of them effec- tive. Surely that was an answer to our pray-r, The identity of the men who had fired the three bullets that went true to their mark above Lo must ever be unsettled. Who killed Jackson?’ must ever be an un- anewerable question—a riddle that even time could not unravel. There was solace in that. Each assured himself that he had not done the deed, his wish being father to his thought. But doubt is worse than conviction, how- ever bad the lattef may be. Only one of the balls that struck Gen. Jackson made a wound that necessitated amputation. If it had not struck him, there is no doubt that he would have survived that great day. The angle at which the bullet that made that wound struck, together with other cir- cumstances, has haunted me from that day to this and. at times, in spite of my resolu- tien to consider my-hands free of Jacksons blood, seem to drive me inevitably to the conclusion that it was the bullet from my musket that was responsible for his death, We pickets at the time of the firing were stationed at close intervals around sole ELLIS GLENN.

j : ) ; : SUNDAY MORNING—ST. LOUIS POST-DISPATCH —MARCH 2 ——N METHODS OF KILLING FRUIT TREE b..EMIE Entomologist of the State University Has Done a Great Work for the Preservation of a Great Asset of the Missouri Farmer. | COLUMBIA, Mo., March 2. Special Correspondence of the Sunday Post-Dispatch. ROF. J. M. STEDMAN, entomologist Pp at the Missour! State University, has discovered final and effectual means ‘of getting rid of a number of insects which have greatly damaged the orvhards of Mis- sourt, notably the San Jose scale, the > woolly alphis of the apple and the fringed- ; * wing apple bud moth, all of which have ‘“ ‘ - ) undergo no inspection whatever. ° x Pe a i. ». . - proved destructive to nurserers and fruit growers. The discoveries are of especial interest to Missourians on account of the laxity of nursery laws governing importations. Mis- souri trees are inspected in 29 of the states A and in several territories of the Union, * while the trees that are shipped to Missouri Of these insects the San Jose scale, though less common in Missouri, is prob- ably ‘the most destructive. In California, where it was introduced from Japan about twelve years ago, this insect is said to de- atroy not less than $250,000 worth of fruit each year. It has spread rapidly through all the western statés and has been found in 20 private orchards in Missouri, nearly all _éf which it has completely destroyed, Hard- ly any kin@-of plant life escapes its attack; even shade trees and shrubbery are liter- ally eaten up by it. The insect is very minute, being not quite @o large as a pinhead, but it 1® aggressive anda reproduces rapidly, sometimes as many _- "ms four or five generations a year. Usually * it Kills a number of trees and infects a whole orchard before the nature of the pest is ascertained. , Prof. Stedman says there is only one sure process of killing the San Jose scale, and that is to spray the infected orchards thor- oughly with whale oil soap. The trees should first be severely pruned. Then two pounds of whale oil soap should be dissolved in one gallon of hot water and applied to the trees. Usually three applica- tions sheuld be made, the first shortly after the leaves have fallen, the second some time during the winter and the third in the spring before the buds begin to swell. If only two applications can be made the first and third are to be used, namely, in the fall and in the spring. Spray pumps have metal valves, since the soap destroys leath- er and rubber rapidly. In Missouri» woolly alphis ° the com- ' monest and is regarded as the most de- siructive of all. orchard pests| that infest the state. Here, again, Prof. Stedman has presented an effectual remedy, especially when the attack is made upon the roots of the trees. Th woolly alphis of the apple is found in nature in two so-called forms. One infests the limbs and twigs, while the other lives under the ground upen the roots. The for- mer, or aerial form of the woolly alphis, can be easily killed by the use of the com- mon spray, kerosene emulsion. The root form is harder to handle and in this Prof. Stedman's. experiments have proved advan- tageous_ to fruit growers. The woolly alphis is 2 small insect, some- what larger than the San Jose scale, but fully as aggressive and, like it, appearing in large numbers. The tree that it infests appears sickly; it does not grow as it should; its leaves are less numerous and they have niore of a pale green or yellow- ish color than is natural and finally the tree dies outright or is blown over with the first slight wind. Neither the variety nor the age of a tree will render it immune from an attack. Prof.. Stedman found by experiment that tobacco dust is sure death to this pest. The tobacco jnoculates the insect with nicotine and kills it. The method of application is simple. A furrow four inches deep is dug around the tree two feet from its base and the tobacco dust is poured in: This process should be repeated every year, using five pounds to the tree upon the fifst application and one- half that amount afterwards, The tobacco will cost 1 cent a pound and it can be dis- tributed over several acres of nursery stock a day by two énergetic boys. The fringed-wing apple bud moth is a néw orchard pest that was discovered by Prof. Stedman three years ago. So far as is known, its attack is confined to apple trees. In one orchard in Jackson County, Mis- souri, it is said to have destroyed $60,000 worth of fruit trees in a single season. It is a small insect that incubates and hatches rapidly. One moth that emerged in a labor- atory breeding cage at the experiment sta- tion at Columbia deposited 13 eggs during the daytime. The insect is particularly fata! to foliage. The larvae, as soon as they-are hatched, begin to feed upon the unfolding leaves and at once crawl to the central leaves of the expanded bud and, fastening two or three together, feed within and work their way down towards the central portion of both the flower and the leaf buds. In all cases the trees badly infested have a much less number of leaves in the spring than those not so attacked. Alter a time the larvae bury themselves an inch or two beneath the soil, and after a period of about six weeks again appear in the adult form. The* adults are’‘especially aggréssive, kill- iitg both the leavey and-the buds. Prof. Stedman suggests the simple rem- edy of Paris green. The parts to be used are one pound of Paris green, three pounds of fresh lime and 150 gallons of water. The mixture must then be well stirred and then sprayed, the work being done thoroughly upon both sides of the tree. The spraying should be repeated from time to time. This, he claims, will kill the moth and prevent its reappearance. In this connection, the amount of pruning necessary im orcharding yaries with loca- tion and exposure. In hot exposed situa- tions fruit trees do not need as much prun- ing as.in sheltered cool sites. Sunshine and light are essential to the development of well-colored, high-flavored fruit. The qual- ity of the fruit produced may be accepted as an indication of the tree’s requirements in the way of pruning. Ry pruning certain definite purposes may be accomplished. Bad habits in trees may be corrected. Certain shapes can be se- cured. Nature herself prunes—that to say, certain parts of the tree are slowly crowded out of existence, The gardener may wish to reach specific results quickly. These defects may be largely corrected by judicious prunihg. The vigor of a tree may be augmented by pruning the top. There is an exact balance between the feeding capacity of a plant, that is, its root system and food supply, and its superficial growth, If a large por- tion of the top is removed, there i en- deavor to supply the deficiency by an ex- ceedingly rapid growth. Heavy pruning in winter encourages wood production, while summer pruning discour- ages wood growth and facilitates fruit pro- duction. Summer pruning should take place about the middle of the season. The object is to lessen the number of digestive organs (the leaves) so that wood growth may be repressed. This pinching process, if done too early, may stimulate wood growth: if done too late, the buds may not develop. This is essentially a gardener’s practice and is hardly applicable to orchard trees. All fruit-bearing plants cannot be pruned alike. Special practices are employed for securing specific results. Peach, plum and dwarf pear trees are ‘‘headed in’’ to encour- age the development of fruit buds. This system of pruning, which is employed dur- ing the dormant season and consists of cut- ting off the ends of terminal shoots, may also be a means of thinning out the fruit by removing fruit buds. If the “heading in’’ is severe and takes the form of heavy prun- ing, one of the objects of the work may be defeated—a vigorous growth may be in- duced. The wound made when a limb is removed heals ‘best if the cut is made close to the trunk or branch on which it grows. is = - % ‘Oiscovered by A Missouri Professor. a An José SCALE ADULT GREATLY A, WINGED Bc “AGRIC FEMALES .

If a branch is cut off, leaving a stump three or four inches long, what happens? Possibly the stump develops buds and puts forth leaves, which set to work to repair the injury. Supposing that the branch was feeble and no buds develop—what then?

Migs Larison is the daughter of the late Maj. J. Ww. Larison, a noted soldier with Gen. Grant. At the close of the Civil war Maj. Larison settled in Lincoln, Ill., where he married and bétame wealthy. His fam- (ly became social leaders in the town. Cath. arine, the youngest, was an especial favor- ite because of her vivacity, her accomplish- - ments and beauty. The latter was of a type "combining the perfect figure of a youthful Venus with the grace of a Gibson girl. It was not long after her sixteenth year when her admirers began to multiply, In Washington, whither tno Larisons went @ vend years ago to reside, Catharine extended the etty.

One man who came handsome young millionaire from the West —~William Beach of Helena, Mont. He was eight years her senior, elegant in dress and deportment, and able to convince the girl that his life would be blighted if she re- fused to marry him. When Mr. Beach asked the father's con- sent Maj. Larisan became furious. Little tirds had whispered that Mr. Beach was better fitted for the life of a club man than for domestic ways; so the major ordered him out of his house after accusing him of having abused his hospitality by stealing the affections of a mere child, etc. The ‘young people eloped, married, and settled in the“husband's home in Helena. Three years later, in the panic of 1893, the Beach fortune was swept away. Along with the Wreck of the businéss went the home, the carriages, the furniture, the dia- monds and .laces that ali pretty women— and some homely ones—revel in, and from her dainty boudoir was driven this youthful matron. It takes misfortune to try. some mortals, Mr. Beach appears not to have stood the test .in his wife's estimation,: for he grew intensely jealous of his beautiful spouse at thie time. Having lost every penny the young wife was accustomed to saliy forth after dark to pick up wood with which to do her scanty cooking. By daylight she would seek work among dressmakers and others—avoiding the rich familles with whom she was acquainted. Mr. Beach grew more unreasonable in his upbraidings, until life became a torture to both. Given the beauty of the young woman, her high spirit and her love of luxury, and it is not difficult to anticipate the next chapter in this career. The couple became divorced in due legal form. Mr. Beach drifted West; his wife remained in Helena. It was at this juncture that Senator W. A. Clark became a factor in the girl's life. The fame of her beauty reached him. He remained indifferent until one day when he met her. She was in the company of an- other young woman who had been the pro- tege of the multi-millionaire.

She vindicated the belief in her dramatic ability by making a hit in-the leading part of one of the productions of the school. Her patron ts said to have determined to launch his protege as a star.

In keeping with all this was the Star’s superb establishment near the scene of her approaching histrionic triumph, with handsome turnout, rich dresses and well- groomed attendants Society took up the coming debutante in a hearty way, as soon as society discovered that everything was proper, and it soon be. came the fashion to have Mrs. Beach on the swagger tea lists. What might have been a complication was averted by the re- jection of an ardent proposal of marriage from the elderly head of a famous banking heuse. Mrs. Beach would have none of him, for she was wedded to her art—— That is, until she met “Bill.” The Rough Riders had no more dare-devi] He could ride and shoot and fight like the spirit in their ranks than Cherokee Bill of Indian Territory, a man whom Theodore Roosevelt loved with an ardent affection.

Roosevelt, told him the situation in detail, and asked for help to join her husband. Two days later a check for $100 reached Stedman has been busy [In other lines. Among other things-he has disproved the life-zone theory. Exponents of this theory hold that, all other influences being equal, any type of life found in a certain altitude should appear in latitudes or zonés where the temperature is the same, that is, the mean temperature between the seasoms.. As an illustration af this theory, the same life that appears in Canada or any north- ern zone should appear in places of analo- gous temperature on Pike's Peak. This is generally found to be the but there are a few exceptions. For instance, the also case, reindeer and the polar bear are not found on any peak south of the line that forms the northern boundary of the United States. ’ Prof. Stedman’has disproved the unl- versality of the life-zone theory, in that his investigations: have emphasized the excep- tions and shew that the influence on life due to temperature is not so great as has been supposed. His investigations were conducted last summer on the peak of Popocatapetl] on the Pacific coast of Mexico, one of the highest mountains in North America. The altitude of this peak ts 18,000 feet, or 4000 feet high- er than any in the United States. While in Mexico Prof. Stedman climbed 1000 feet higher up the great volcano, Coll- ma, than any other explorer had ever gone.

r- The Prevailing M FASHIONABLE WOMEN ARE LOADED WITH GEMS ode Described for the Sunday Post-Dispatch by. an Expert in the Jewelry Fads of the Rich, By GUS F. KUNZ, Gem Expert. Mr. Kunz is one of the hichest authorities on precious stones. For 18 years he has prepared for the government annual reports on the production of precious stones. He describes for the Sunday Post-Diepatch the phenomenal demand for jewels jn the United States this year and mentions the most famous single jewels in the country. EVER before in the history of the of the United States have precious stones been‘ worn in such profusion as this year. The women at the grand op- era, at fetes and parties, at the theaters, have fairly scintillated with gems—and this despite the fact that .the price of precious stones has greatly advanced within the last two years. This is only to be accounted for by the prosperity of the United States. I limit this prosperity to this country. The more pro- fuse wearing of rare gems is not an in- ternational condition. Many have accounted for the advance in price by the existence of the Boer war, which has prevented my production of dia- monds. As a matter of fact that war has had little to do with advanced prices. The diamond industry is controlled by the great De Beers syndicate‘of South Africa. More than 95 per cent of the world’s dia- monds come from the Kimberley mines, in Griqualand. Long before the breaking out of the Boer war that emergency was pro- vided for. Prices were advanced simply be- cause diamond buyers were willing to pay for the stones. The absorption of the diamond industry by the De Beers company and the fact that their own South African mines produced 29.30 per cent of the world's diamond sup- ply, enabled them to advance the price of cut diamonds one-fourth. The mining of the diamonds has to be done at greater depths than hitherto. For this reason the advance in price is a permanent one—not affected by the war or any other extraneous influence. Another thing which has made diamonds go valuable is the fact that these stones represent their intrinsic value more nearly than any other form of purchase. A great deal of money may be invested in diamonds, and yet the purchaser may feel assured of being able to turn his money back into gold almost to the exact amount. Another thing—diamonds never deteriorate in value, luster or beauty. Once a fine diamond ai- Ways one—unless some untoward accident happens. It is remarkable how the purchasing of fine diamonds has increased in the United States since 1868. In that year there were imported into this country not more than $1,000,000 worth of diamonds. Today there are in this country about $500,000,000 worth of diamonds. This is a conservative esti- mate. While many of the diamonds owned in America are not so famous historically as some European diamonds, still in fine- ness, weight and beauty many of them are equal to the best foreign diamonds. The prices paid for some American gems—the term including diamonds rubies, pearls and emeralds—are very high. Half a dozen American families own jewels which rank in intrinsic value with some of the gems be- longing to the royal and imperial families of Europe. The names of these families I am not privileged to publish, but I may mention some of the individual pieces of jewelry. For instance I have in mind one diamond weighing 25 19-32 carats, the value of which is $45,000. A ruby belonging to a well-known American family weighs 9% carats and is worth $40,000. There are num- bers of other rubies worth over $10,000 each. Many white pearls belonging to American families are worth from $5000 to $11,000, and some black pearls are valued at $20,000 to $100,000 each. An emerald owned laces in this country which are worth from $20, 000 to $1000,000 each. An emerald owned here is worth $12,000. There is one necklace here worth $320,000. It will be remembered that some of the French crown jewels came to the United States some years ago. Among these were four of the famous Mazarin diamonds, so named because Cardinal Mazarin fostered the diamond industry . Three of these dia- monds weighed respectively 28 6-16, 24 27-32 and 22% carats, and their values on ap- praisal were $50,000, $40,000 and $32,000. Of the French crown jewels sold in Paris in May, 1886, more than one-third came to this country. Three of the greatest diamonds owned ir this country weigh respectively 554% carats, 77 carats and 125% carats. The last named is known as the Tiffany diamond, and is the handsomest large yellow diamond ever found., It is valued at $190,000. Besides the private collections owned by the half dozen families to which I have al- luded there are in the United States many famous gem collections. These collections embrace precious stones of every variety. One of the most notable of these is the col- lection given by J. Pierpont Morgan to the Natural History Museum of-New York City. The first collection of precious stones in this country was made by J. R. Cox of the University of Virginia. It was composed of 221 lots. Other collections were made by Au- gust Lowell af Boston, Judge Henry Hilton, New York: Mrs. T. N. C. Lowe of Morris- town, N. Y.: Mrs. M. J. Chase of Philadel- phia. Then there are collections owned by universities such as Cornell, Yale, Harvard, Columbia, and at Washington. This vear the wearing of gems is distin- guished by no particular novelties. Dia- monds are, as ever, favorites, though many rubies, emeralds, pearls and other stones are worn. ee FISHER S FOR PEARLS FIND WORLD FAMOUS GEMS What nie Known as Sweet Water Pearls Are.Found in the Mississippi and Other. Rivers Near St. Louis. ¢ ) EWELERS of &t. Louis inform’ the Sunday Post-Dispatch that pearls have increased In value in the iast three years from, 100 to 150 per cent. This remarkable inereasg:;is made despite the new fresh water pearl industry of the United States and, the assurance from the East that the Chinese and .Japanese are making pear! finding easy by slipping a fine grain of sand into the shell of the mussel when it is young, securing in from two to three years a secretion of mother of pearl around the particle producing a brilliant pear). . ‘ Jewelers attfibute the pearl’s advance in value’to a corresponding advance in favor. They say the pearl is more admired, more sought after than formerly. There are per- s0ns who do@ not like diamonds, and there are Gifferent taste® with respect to almost all the precious stones, the jewels and gems; but there is no auch diversity of tastes with regard to pearls. Everyone likes them. Their tint and glow and wondrous beauty never cease to charm.

It is said of them that hundreds of years ago they discovered that any particle or foreign mat- ter cropped into the shell of a live mussel or oyster would, in even a few months, pve- come entirely covered by the beautiful se- cretion which makes a pearl. The Cniness have long had a trick of making little pearl figures of Buddha by slipping into the shell of a young mussel a thin piece of tin cut to resemble Buddha. The tin wounds the mussel, and, to protect itself, it covers the intruder with secretion, enabling the China- man to withdraw his tin piece within a few months and have an apparently solid pearl figure. It is uderstood that the Chinese and Jap- have worked with this problem of they have almost, if not quite, mastered it. They are reputed to use a fine particle of sand, keeping the mussels.in a pond and taking the pearls from the shells after from three to five years. This process has been tried in Germany, but it has not beea & success, at least not so far as anyone but There is no record of any such attempts in the experimenters themselves know. the United States. It is related that in Ausr tralia a pearl merchant succeeded in secur- ing some very good pearls in this way, and that when he told of his method he was taken ‘before a magistrate and fined for fraud. Any foreign substance placed in the shell of a living mussel will in time become cov- ered with the pearl secretion. Attempts have been made to put 4 pearl coating on buttons in this way. Tiny fish entering the shell of a mussel often become imprisoned there and are covered with pearl. Perfect pearl fishes have been found in oysters in the Indian Ocean and other places. The pearls of every locality vary in size, in color and in fire. The magnificent yel- low pearls almost all come from the Indian Ocean, but they are found among many other colors and kinds. The finest fresh-water pearls of Wiscon- Sin are dark pink and copper colored. The pearls of Arkansas are pink and white and many other less beautiful col- ors, and those of Missouri and all the up- per Mississippi states are of this sort. White pearls rule as favorites in Europe, but In the Orient the creamy yellow ones are preferred. There are hundreds of pearl hunters with- in a radius of a hundred miles of St. Louis. The Mississippi river between St. Louis and St. Paul abounds with them. They are in youseboats and camps at frequent intervals | along the stream.

The pearl hunter is more expert than this. He knows the pearl-bearing shells. All the fresh water pearls are in the unios, a nu- merous family of mussels. The heavy unlos, with their strong, thick shells and beautifully colored interiors, are the pearl producers. The pearl hunter hunts only for these, and he opens them carefully over a sheet of tin, where he will hear the smallest pearl that may drop. It is the diseased, -he misshapen and un- sightly \mussel which yields the pearl. If the interior is perfect and smooth there is little chance for a pearl. But if the mussel is irregular, the pearl hunter opens it ea- gerly, for irregularities, parasites, etc., cause the formation of pearls. It is rare to find more than one good pearl in a Mis- sissippi river mussel. Perfectly round pearls are infrequent. They rarely occur except when the pearl has been detached from the shell and rolled around and around, becoming round as a shot. Others are pear-shaped, some perfect in this form, and the great majority are long and crooked and of little commercial value. These are called slugs. It must not be supposed that the pear! hunters around St. Louis do not make money with their work, for they do. ‘| Uaa) CERES i PEs , : : "i - i odiety : % ge a Be Tay Piatto net & A ay eee oa: ale: * Red : »> Pee Bs tar IOS, Bie 5, acts se Se ea ae ee oes on © eee = - : YOSSEL SHELL, }j\ PINS TINTED. | **. ek ih " seRentiens : 1se@eesse \ LZ. : bait oes shoes ieeeadty tessaceess a . “2 CN Ya FZ oS or " E> | - > ‘ i ‘ee ained in this manner. times @ specimens are obt on aq Roscoft The ith h She Sil ri : a. experiments met W showed that the depth of the secretion ra & megsure of suecce, oa . of from Examination 1-79 : auty, Tt ! nine tp 86 months than Wehtsu: anteaeh ak moth- deposit of pearl substance was a ‘Y of @ pearl einiiiied er of BPearl were found to a covered with to 1-30 of an inch, true pe t of expocure, -, ~ "4 Led ‘A ph ele aa Wee ey % ’ 7 r ¥ ‘ *, ‘ 7 " hy nN oe ‘ a% 3 x Like) ee ae a or 2 “ 4 s" rs Ye ae i] . 4 as 4 ; ae i wee , i * al ba ’ ae § OE! bok a a i i iy ho - ¥ ‘) “Tae we f r en) batt 7 * < * ' ah » . - +, oo oe ity

f SUNDAY MORNING~ST. LOUIS POST-DISPATCH —MAR —_ —_—- LADY DE GREY. A FAVORITE She Has Been Married Twice. She Has Been Engaged Four Times. She Has Been Involved in Two Noted Scandals. LONDON, Feb. 23. Bpecial Correspondence of the Sunday Post-Dispatch. ONDON heads ace wagging over the ri anrvouncement, which is said to come from very high authority, that Lady de Grey is to be made Mistress of the Royal Robes at the Court of St. James. The most daring lady in the kingdom is hus to be signally hoonred by the most se- late of queens with an office which any onc f her social rivals would give almost the world to possess. The unexpected is fairly certain to occur wherever the beautiful Gladys de Grey may nappen to be. ,And if Queen Alexandra has indeed sc- lected the superbly handsome English wom- an for the post of most distinguished fa- vor in her majesty’s gift, the situation will be quite in keeping with the record of the picturesque lady, who has been known as the heroine of many adventures, rarely if ever conventional, since as a slip of a girl she burst upon the dazzled vision of Eng- lich society as the youthful bride of the Earl of Lonsdale. The incidents in Lady de Grey's life, which is yet young, would already form a capital stock in trade for the ready novel writer. She has been twice married and practi- cally twice separated. She has been engaged to be married at least four times. She has been involved itn two noted scan- dals—one the famous Durham _ divorce suit, in which Lord Lonsdale’s name was brought forward in court as the possible involuntary cause of the disastrous termi- nation of the Durham marriage, the other the Tranby Croft scandal. She has been a backer of musfeal enter- tainers and has been as frequently seen at rehearsals as at public performances. In spite of such a record Lady de Grey maintained her place of favor with Queen Victoria and was especially invited to Windsor to receive the royal thanks for her notable assistance in fitting out the hospl- tal ship Maine during the South African war. She has also taken a turn at trade, and quite recently astonished swagger England by seting up a tea room in London. This proceeding would naturally have put her outside the pale of the inner court circle. But Lady de Grey declared when she set up her tea room that’she would if needs be exchange the society of her friends at court for the privilege of discharging her financial obligations. The tea room, she as- serted, was the means by which she hoped to pay her debts This clever speech was reported to King Edward, then Prince of Wales, and the re- sult was that Liaady de Grey, always a fa- vorite with the womanly Alexandra, was shown even more kindness and was made _ especially welcome by her royal patroness Lady de Grey never does anything half- way. It is not surprising, therefore, that she carried all before her when she attended the gorgeous fancy’ dress ball of the Duch- éss of Devonshire. It was known that there were to be two Cleopatras at the Devonshire function, and Mrs. Arthur Paget’s superb costume had been frequently commented on while it was in course ‘of preparation. Mrs. Paget's gown was, indeed, a marvel- ous story in white and gold and was liter- ally covered with jewels But when Lady de Grey, tall, lithe and every inch a queen in appearance, made her entree in her wonderfully realistic gar- ment, the planning of which had occupied her ladyship for months, followed by a dusky train bearer, the Egyptian to the very atitude, there was a murmur of ap- plause throughout the great ballroom, and Lady de Grey. had another sensation, an- other success, to add to her long list of social surprises. There were few more beautiful women in England, none whose features are more fa- miliar to the public than the prospective mistress of the robes of Queen Alexandra's court, She was born Gladys Herbert and is a sister of Mr. Michael Herbert, who mar- ried Miss Wilson of New York, Mrs. Cor- nelius Vanderbilt's eldest sister. + Though a mere child when she married the wild red earl, as Lord Lonsdale was eclled, she early exhibited her indepen- dence of thought and action and had been practically for some time living apart from that disselute and reckless nobleman when he released her by a death which was quite in accordance with the folly of his life. The young Countess of Lonsdale never posed as a bereaved widow. She has always had the courage of her convictions, and within a very short time after Lord Lonsdale’s death she was seen much in compary with that famous gallant, Luke White, now Lord Annally. 3ut the fast and furious flirtation be- between these two conspicuous personages of the smart set canre to naught and was finally cut short by the sensational law- suit between the Earl and Countess of Dur- ham. The lawsuit remains in the memory of many a Londoner as one of the saddest ep- isodes in the history of the Prince of Wales’ set. About two years after her widowhood the Countess of Lonsdale engaged herself to Sir Edgar Vincent, long the ruling power in the Banque Ottomane of Constantinople, and was on the point of marrying him when the match was suddenly broken off. In nowise discouraged the Countess of Lonsdale shortly after announced her ap- proaching marriage with the matrimonial catch—not of one, but of many seasons~ the immensely rich Lord de Grey, heir to the title and estate of the Marquis of Ripon, The marriage has been one of convenl- ence and has settled down to a platonic friendship. Lord and Lady de Grey see little of each other, but when they do meet are extremely friendly. vt AN AME*ICAN GIRL wm ADELE BEACH GRANT, COUNTESS Poorest of English Noblewomen May Be Restored to Fortune by the New King. LONDON, Feb. 23. Special Correspondence of the Sunday Post-Dispatch. HE Duchess of Marlborough, whose i} husband may sooner or later receive the viceroyalty of Ireland, is not the only American peeress who may profit by the accession of England's new sovereign. According to London gossips it will not be surprising if the new King confers some appointment which will swell the income vf the “poorest peer and peeress in Great Britain.” Not that George, seventh Earl of Essex, and Adele, his lovely American-born count- ©85, are in a position to beg for aid. Everybody knows. however, that Adele Beach Grant of New York: brought her noble husband no such ample dowry as would suffice to maintain the social estate of an earl, and that Lord Essex himself, though a good fellow and popular among the smart people, as among the English fank and file, has met with such finan- lal disasters that the family ‘assets are in @ depleted condition. To such an extent is this true that any mark of foyal favor which should serve, if only temporarily, to prop the Essex for- tunes, would be welcomed by the entire family of peers. For it is in England, her own country, that the brave of Adele Grant, as her frienJs at still call her, are appreciated. With less money to maintain their post- tion than any other noble family in the king- dom, and with misfortunes of a distressing character, this titled pair have shown such courage in facing adversity as to win the admiration of all England. The countless luxuries which other peer- esses of her rank demand. as their due *he Countess of Essex has put aside witha smile. The news which she has heard more than once—that thousands of pounds have been lost through unwise speculations of her husband—she has met with a serenity that even those who knew her best could barely understand.

C.—If the scars are from pimples I think they will wear away. You might use this ointment, which will facilitate the pro- cess: Lanoline, 2 drams; ointment of bin- iodide of mercury, 1 dram. A Harmless Cheek Tint. JENNIE.—The most harmless tint for the cheek ‘Is a preparation of pure carmine, which does not injure the carters - the skin. For Carmine Paste.—Pure. iain. 2 grams; oll of sweet almond, 10 grams; ex- tract of rose, 6 grams; white wax, 5 grams. Stfr the substances together and leave care- fully covered for elght days in a warm place and then beat to a smooth paste. This is an old recipe and’ if carefully ap- plied to the face is scarcely perceptible. To Remove Moles. LOTTIE.—I would suggest having the moles removed by electricity. You can, of course, have them taken off by an acid, but this process is apt to leave a scar. lunar caustic Js the best acid. If you use it you would better get it in the pencil form and touch the Mole wery little once or twice a day until it drops off, as it will. It will first turn black. To Make Hair Gray. ALICE.—I am very sorry, but I cannot give you a formula for making a head of heavy dark-brown hair gray. It would re- quire a strong acid to effect this change, and the process would unquestionably de- stroy the constitution of the hair. In the royal robes of Cleopatra, with a negro train-bearer at her heels, Lady de Grey OF ESSEX always lived much in England, and it was there that the earl and countess met. Americans, if they do not know the earl, have a vivid memory of Adele Grant, the beauty of New York at the period when she ! shone as a debutante. She is remembered for her personal charm, however, and not for wealth. Miss Grant was never reck- oned among the group of American heir- esses whose claim to coronets seemed as indisputable as the rising of the sun. Hier father was the late Mr. Beach Grant. Hier family, a well-known one, occupied the residence in New York on Twenty-third street, near Ninth avenue, now known as the “hoodoo house”’ because, despite its at- tractions, it persistently remains unoccu: pied, and formerly the temporary nome of Lily Langtry, a chatelaine to whom the estate is indebted for its present high iron fence. Because of her cleverness Miss Grant shortly won a social position unique for so young a girl. She did not long enjoy her triumphs here, howeyer, for Mrs. Grant, who may have cherished un- Suspected ambitions, repeatedly bore away her lovely daughters to Europe. On one of these expeditions Adele Grant became en- gaged to Lord Carmoyle, afterward the Earl of Cairns There was a great flutter over her be- coming a future countess. Mrs Grant ap- peared ready to hecome mother-in-law to a lord, a house in Grosvenor Square, Lon- don, had been engaged for the marriage reception, and the trousseau. and wedding gifts were safely installed there, when the decidedly awkward importunity of a Miss Fortescue, an actress, succeeded in win- ning $50,000 in a breach of promise suit against Lord Carmoyle. This abruptly closed the Carmoyle in- cident and the Grants hurried back to America. There is no record that Adele Grant carried a broken heart with her. It was several years later that she met the Earl of Essex, a widower just past thirty, with a very young son. Though marriages between English peers and American girls are not commonly re- gkarded in a romantic light, there was in this case no dissent from the opinion that and cparm it was a love match, The earl had what Americans have come to consider the pov- erty inseparable from his rank, which hap- pens to be fourteenth among the peers of the kingdom. Miss Grant had inherited a pretty fortune of $100,000, which ylelded her, however, but $4000 a. year—obviously but the merest drop in the yawning buck- et of the earl’s needs. . Because of the countess’ tact and the earls honesty the Essexes have avoided bankruptcy, while the rest of England has looked on in pity. Their friends found some hope in the fact that the earl was a cousin to the tmmensely mnch Henry nry »ted4and forgot to hos earl an 4 wll, : | Has Not Seen the Freckle Formula. | R. L—It seems itneredible that you should not have seen the freckle formula on this page. It has heen repeated so often. To Color the Hair Black. ' | MRS. W.—By all means go to a first-class | hairdresser and have your hair stained by | someone who understands the process. You are paying the penalty for using s0 many different preparations. I am not astonished that your hair has turned several different colors, and am surprised that you have any left. Don't try home-made dyes or prepara- tions you Know nothing about. A Remedy for the Skia. J. N.—You do not tell me what the trouble is with your skin. Yes, bengzoin is very good to use if it Is properly prepared. | Benzoin pure would be sticky and Irritating. | give you a very simple mixture: Rose- water, 4 odnces; benzoin, 60 drops. Put a teaspoonful of this mixture in a quart of water for bathing the face. To Cure Projecting Ears. A. A.—You have not been using the right bandage for your ears. I should not attempt to tie them back as you describe. Get one jot _the caps especially made for correcting outstanding ears. I do not think your age has anything to do with it. I have seen women of #4 years cured of projecting ears by this process. Comes Out in Handfuls. GENEVA.—You need only scalp massage. When the hair falls out as you describe it is always because the circulation of the skin of the scalp is impaired. In connection with the massage you should use a tonic, This is an excellent one: Hair Tonic.—Phenic acid, 2 grams; tinc-. ture of nux vomica, 7% grams; tincture red cinchona, 30 grams; tincture of cantharides, 2 grams; cologne, 180 grams; sweet almond oll, 60 grams. Apply to the roots of the hair with a soft sponge once or twice a day. This lotion is especially good for very dry hair. A Heavy-Eyed Girl. ANNIE.—From your description of your condition I am certain you require the ad- vise of a competent physician, someone who can see you personally and knows your medical history. : Where the subject Is very pale, with dark rims under the eyes, there is always some internal cause, It may be a hereditary ten- dency, or it may be due to some congestion of the part, and is rarely if ever found ex- cepting under one or more of the following circumstances: When the subject is anemic and there is an impairment of the chemical constitution of the blood, or when the system is being drained by prolonged study, lack of sleep or dissipation of any description. In some cases an external treatment will be effective temporarily, but cannot be so permanently while the cause exists. For local treatment bathe frequently with cold water and use friction. A little turpentine liniment or weak ammonia—one part of di- luted ammonia to four of water—may be rubbed onto the skin once daily, but care must be taken that it does not feach the eye proper. It takes a long time to cure enlarged pores, and the only way I know of is by the use of the scrubbing brush and a pure hygienic soap. By this process the pores, which have become enlarged by the clogged secretions, are kept free and gradually they will contract and become normal in size. | know of thousands of cures effected in this manner. For Oily Hair. MRS. M.—Where the oily secretions are abnormal, as perhaps they are in your case, scalp massage will do more good than any other treatment. You can also use this’ tonic, which is especially prepared for oily hair: Powdered bicarbonate of soda, % ounce! biborate of soda, also powdered, \% ounce eau de cologne, 1 fluid ounce; pure alcohol, 2 fluid ounces; tincture of cochineal, % fluid ounce; distilled water, 16 ounees. If you do not wish the auburn tinge leave out the cochineal. - Wants Large Nose Removed. IRENE.—There are cosmetic sufgeons who undertake all sorts of with the nose, You should apply to ene of them. Too Much Peroxide. BEATRICE.—Unquestionably you haye used the peroxide too freely. That would account for the breaking hair. . Twicé a month, ff you used it pure, would have just the effect you describe. You will de- stroy the constitution of the hair if you use peroxide in such quantities and strength. Desires to Be Seven Inches Taller. MRS. T.—A great many women haye grown taller after 18. But I cannot possibly promise you will increase in height. Cer- tainly, I could not undertake to say you would grow precisely seven inches taller. Physical culture is your best course. If you can go to a gymnasium I would advise | it. ST.

In advance of her coming they will be in- formed of that nature of the different views they are to behold, so that they may have an Opportunity to inform themselves on the Subject. It is in this that the stereopticon exhibition differs from a lecture. The pu- piles do the talking. This innovation was suggested by F, Louls Boldan, superintendent of the publie schools of St. Louis, He believes in the stereopti- to pupils Louis, with the “act ‘| object “show” it all Missourians, but because he is convinced that the will lesson—not that is necessary to object lesson im- press a scene or a fact upon a child's mem- ory more firmly than would be possible by any other means.

To teach children we must let them do something themselves. So we are not to send a teacher to lecture as the pictures are shown. She is to do nothing more than enlarge upon what the children themselves may be able to tell. One of the principal sets of pictures to be shown in the stereopticon series will be taken in St.-Louis. They will be shown for the purpose of familiarizing the pupil with his own city. It is surprising how lit- tle the children between 6 and 10 years know of their own city. It is difficult, for instance, to belleve there are hundreds of little school children in St. Louis who have never seen the Mississippi River. We can find them in every in every school. A request for those who have not seen the Mississippi River to lift their hands will oftentimes show five, six, up to 10 and young people who have never secn great river. So, too, aré there many who have seen the Eads bridge, the steamboats and many another thing of which all children should Know. Perhaps half of them do not know the Court House, the City Hall or the Federal building when they see them. Many others have no knowledge at all of the great office buildings of the city. 5ome of them have never seen the parks. Each pupil has a personal knowledge of some of the principal objects of interest in St. Louis. We shall give these an oppor- tunity to tell the class what they know. If there is a boy who has ridden on a steam- boat on the river, we will give him the subject of steamboats. When & steamboat is thrown upon the canvas he must tell the class, in a short ‘talk, something in- teresting about steamboats. So with the . .

We shall thus impress upon the minds of the chil- dren a familiarity with their home city. Very young people have but a vague idea of foreign lands and peoples after a study of mege print. We shall show them pic- tures that. will interest them in these things. When we take up the continent of Afriéa in geography we shall throw pic- tures of places, people and many other things of Africa upon the canvas. It will their interest and fix in their memories what they see and hear. Few of thé-school children of St. Louis have ever seen the sea or a ship. Pictures ef these will be beautiful, and they will not enliven be forgotten by the pupils who see them. We shall exhibit in this class many splen- did views of the sea, the wonders of its shores and depths, its islands and its in- habitants, g@nd the ships of many kinds and many peoples which sail its waters. Such a course of study cannot fail to awaken a very enthusiastic interest in the sea upon the part of any school girl or boy.
