LOUIS + Osii-DISPATCU-NOVENBER 80, 1902 FALL FROM A HORSE RESULTS _ IN PARALYSIS. J. Davis of Manistee, Mich., Thrown - #rom His Saddle by Unmanage- able Animal--When He Re- covered Consciousness His Left Side Was Found to be While Mr. L. J. Davis of Manistee, Mich,, was riding his horse near the rail- road, the animal was frightened at a assing train and became unmanageable. e horse plunged, and although Mr. Davis is a good rider, the movement was om "SO quick and unexpected that he was thrown from his saddle and struck the pavement witlf his head and shoulders. He was picked up unconscious and it was at first thought his neck had been broken; but an examination revealed that this was not the case. When he came to his senses he was found partially paralyzed. In telling his story, Mr. Davis said to the reporter of the Manistee Times: “It was three days and nights after the accident before I came to know anyone, and then I found my left side was para- lyzed. I could not move even a finger or toe on my left side and my left eve was affected. A doctor treated me for three months after I was hurt but I got no better. After this had gone on fora couple of years I saw an account in a paret of how a man was cured of creep- ng paralysis by Dr. Willaims’ Pink Pills for Pale People, and I thought perhaps they would help me. And they did. I began to get better immediately and kept taking them till I was cured. I am doing my work now without difficulty and rec- ommend Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills for Pale People to everyone whom I hear complain.” Mr. Davis is a marine engineer on the tug Stevens and although the accident took place eleven years ago, he has not had a touch of the complaint: since. his marvelous cure by Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills for Pale People. At the request of the reporter he made affidavit: to’ his aboye statement on the.24th day of Au- gust, 1901, before Justice of the Peace August Greve. It is a reasonable claim that if Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills for Pale People will cure severe cases of this nature they will readily accomplish as good results in lesser afflictions of the nerves. That this is so is substantiated by statements from thousands ot people who have been benefited by them. They are a pesitive specific for all diseases arising from a deranged nervous system or poor blood. They cure locomotor ataxia, partial par- alysis, St. Vitus’ dance, sciatica, neural- gia, rheumatism, nervous headache, the after-effects of the grip, palpitation of the heart, pale and sallow complexions and all forms of weakness either in male or female.' \Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills for Pale People are sold by all dealers, or will be sent postpaid on receipt of price; fifty cents a box, or six boxes for two dollars and fifty cents (they are never sold in bulk or by the 100) by address- in Dr. Williams Medicine Company, Schenectady, N.

NO STAIN UPON “HER WRAPPER Chemist Found No Blood on Mrs, Bonine’s Garment, THE CASE IS ALMOST ENDED IT IS NOT PROBABLE THAT SHE WILL GO ON THE STAND The Prosecution Is Disappointed in Weakness of the Case Which It Has Been Able to Present. Special to the Post-Disepetch. WASHINGTON, Nov. W.—There are indi- cations that the trial of Mrs. Lola Ida Bo- nine, accused of the murder of James Sey- mour Ayres, will be brought to a close much earlier than had been expected. Dis- trict Attorney Gould announced that the government had but three more Witnesses, and expected to be able to close its case to- day. If Mr. Gould's expectations as to closing are realized, and the defense does not deem it necessary to offer any evidence, only the arguments will remain for next week. The attorneys for the defense feel certain that the jury must acquit the accused woman on the testimony now before it, but they will not disclése their program until the govern- ment has rested. Mra. Bonine May Not Testify. There is no indication that Mrs. Bonine will go on ‘the stand.| Her attorneys do not believe it is necessary, especially since her story of the tragedy is already before the jury in the form of statements made to the police. Should she go on the stand she would‘be subjected to a rigid cross-exami- nation. ' The government has been disappointed in the character of the testimony given by its witnesses. The prosecution had expected mucn stronger evidence than has been thus far adduced. The room occupied by the criminal court in which Mrs. onine is undergoing trial today presented semewhat the appearance of a junk shop from the fact that a number of the belongings of Ayers’ room in the Kenmore Hotel were exhibited. These in- cluded the bloodstained carpet, which covered the floor, Ayers’ two trunks and a section from the inner part of the wall of the room belonging under the window, showing blood upon plaster and wagsh- board. The wrapper worn by Mrs. Bo- nine on the night of the tragedy also was shown. Lieut. James A: Moore of the police force was the first witness. He identified this miscellaneous assortment of chattels. He said that, acting under Mrs. Bonine’s in- structions, he had gone to her room the day she made her confession to the chief of po- lice and had.procured the wrapper and had delivered it to the detectives. There are torn places.under the arms of the gar- ment which he had not seen on that occa- sion, but he said on cross-examination that they might possibly have been there with- out his seeing them, No Blood on Woman’s Wrapper. Dr, : Edware#. Schaeffer, the chemist, who made a search for blood on Mrs. Bonine’s wrapper and analyzed the blood on other articles in Ayres’ room, testified that he had examined the wrapper with great care and had failed to find any in- ication whatever of blood. “I did not tind a spot as big as a pin’s head,’ he said. He also said that the rips under the now larger than when he first dress. District Attorney Gould asked: “‘In case of a struggle between a larger person and a small one in which the larger had been 80 wounded that blood poured over the smaller person’s shoulder and the two had fallen to the floor, together, would it have been posstbie to cleanse the garment from the blood that would have gotten on it?’ “It would have been possibie to do so by the use of chemicals and by boiling in a vat,”’ replied the witness. ‘‘By this process all traces of blood can be removed.” “Would ordinary washing take it out?’ “I think not.’ “If the garment had been recently washed could you have determined the fact?’’ “T could; it had not been washed.”’ On cross-¢xamination, Dr. Schaeffer said he had used only the microscopic test; he had made no chemical analysis. On cross-examination, Dr. Schaeffer said he had not intended to say that the wrap- per had never been washed, but that it had not recently been washed. Dr. Shaeffer was sen eree to a rigid cross-examination, Mr. ulton, one of the attorneys for the defense using for the pur- pose of veg ty, Bory: points a young man and, later, Mrs. eacham, Mrs. Bonine’s sister. Dr. Schaeffer said it was not posal- ble for two persons falling, as Mrs. Bonine says she and Ayres fell, without the woman getting blood upon a wrapper, worn by her at the titme. Ayers’ Father Tells of Talk to Mrs. Bonine. When Dr. Schaeffer was excused, James S. Ayres, father of the victim, was called to the staand. He told of coming to Wash- ington the day after the tragedy. Mr, Ayres said he had sought out Mrs. Bonine, ‘‘and,’’ he said, “I told her about my boy. who had been murdered.’ He then went on to say that he told her how his son had lost his mother when he was 3 years old, and how near and dear he was to him, because of the care he had given him. “I tried,’ he said, ‘‘to be as sympa- thetic as I could, because I had it in my mind that Mrs. Bonine was the destroyer of my son's life, and I wanted to find the guilty one. I dwelt upon his character as a dutiful and obedient boy, and told her of my affectionate parting with him when he left me in Michigan to come to Wash- ington in May, 1900. really — up my heart to her, telling her how when he had left me in Detroit he had thrown his arms about me and kissed me on the lips as a daughter would have done. I told her how I had admonished him to protect his reputation, saying to him that I knew he was going to a tough place. I told him that I wanted him to continue in the course he had pursued, and I preferred that he should not drink at all, but that if he did drink, he should not take more than one drink at a time.”’ e In response to a question from Mr. Gould, Mr. Ayres said that Mrs. Bonine had made no response while he was talking, but that when he concluded, she sald something which he would never forget. What this something was Mr. Ayres’ statement did not reveal, and no question was asked to bring it out. CITY NEWS.

COMPANY ORDINANCE ORDERING MOTOR- MEN TO STOP IS CAUSE. NOT POSTED IN CAR, IT IS SAID Case Was ‘Brought to Prevent Trains From Whizzing by Passengers on Corners. *& fine of $10 was imposed on the St. Louis Transit Co. Saturday by Judge Sidener on the charge of failing to keep posted in car 1126 of the Market street line a copy of city ordinance 1763. The ordinance requires motormen to stop their cars at every corner where passengers wish to enter or leave cars. A supplementary ordinance requires the company to keep a copy of ordinance 1768 posted in all cara. The charge was brought by Charles C. Don and John H. Kiely. Both testified that they had boarded the Market street car on Nov. 15, and had looked in vain for a copy of the ordinance. Murray Carleton, president of the transit company, who was named in the informa- tion, was not present, but was represented by Attorney Norton Jourdan. ‘An appeal from the court's decision was taken by Mr. Jourdan. Mr. Dow, who is stenographer in the office of City Counselor Schnurmacher, says that he brought the proceeding in order to compel the company, if possible, to post in its cars copies of the ordinance requiring cars to stop. He believes that iff the ordi- nance were conspicuously poste in each car the public would become fully informed of its rights and that cars would less fre- quently whiz by those waiting on street corners, St. Louis Children’s Free Hospital, Jefferson avenue and Adams street, will hold thelr annual sale for the benefit of the hospital on Thursday and Friday, Vec.

IL, who has been in London this week, testifying in an arbitration case in connection with @ | personal dispute between two members of the Harrison-Whitehouse Abyssinian ex- pedition of 1900, intends to start in a few weeks on a fresh expedition to the heart of Africa, accompained by Capt. Powell Cot- ton of the Northumberland Fusiliers. They intend to go in a Belgian gunboat up the Congo to Bosko, thence through the pig- my forest to the north, avoiding the usual forest route, to Uganda, and then push on and explore the unknown portions of Lake Albert. The chief objects of the expedition are to obtain big game, but it will also include practical sugveys from which valuable geographical results may be expected. Mr. Whitehouse hopes to return in about nine months. Suit Over a Rocking Chair. A dispute with her former landlord, Wm. Bussmeyer, over the possession of a rock- ing chair, led Miss Ida Bender to file suit against him in Justice: Cullinane’s court. She was awarded $25 damages Friday. Miss Bender formerly rented a room at Ninth and a pemetey streets from Buss- meyer, and after leaving returned for her rocking chair, which the landlord refused to give her. Miss Bender also said that she had been thrown downstairs by Buss- mever. : RICHARDSON FOR SPEAKER. Democrats of the House Compliment the Member From Tennessee.

When the conductor, edges his way through a crowded car, he cranes his neck over in your direction and sees you standing wedged in between the third seat from the back, a fat lady, an ovyer-grown college boy and a man with a pipe breath. For 13 consecutive blocks you have held your nickel in your hand, waiting to fork it over to the soulless corporation ‘he repre- sents. You are looking at him; he knows that; but instead of saying ‘“‘Fare!’’ in a medium tone of voice, or merely reaching out to take your money, he elevates his arm, thrusts it over people’s shoulders, punches you in the chest with his forefinger before you can hand him your fare and inquires: “Did I get yours?”’ Why is it? Others commence at the rear of the car to collect. You are absorbed in your paper. The conductor does not say a word. He ap- proaches you from behind, lays his hand on your shoulder or touches you in the region of the third rib. Then he says ‘‘Fare!”’ You want to Knock him down, but content yourself with handing over your nickel srudgingly. Talk is cheap. ductors don't use more of it? Wonder why. some con- Thomas's latest play is entitled and he hopes it will prove a Gus “Colorado,”’ gold mine. If Oklahoma and Indian Territory are admitted to the Union, their last state will be better than the first.

THE ORIGINAL JUDGE LYNCH. Tradition sometimes plays strange pranks with dead men's reputations, says Thomas Walker Page in the December Atlantic. It would make an interesting half hour for the eavesdropper beyond the Styx, if he could hear the exchange of amenities between Duns Scotus and “Judge’’ Lynch; the onea shrewd, clear reasoner, whose name now signifies a fool, the other, a simple Quaker gentleman, whose name has come to stand for organized savagery. Charles Lynch was a man whose services to his country as a brave pioneer and righteous judge, as a soldier and a statesman, are by no means deserving of oblivion, still less of obloquy. It seems, indeed, one of the iniquities of Fate that his name should now be univer- sally applied to proceedings that no one would condemn more heartily than he. The records of the court of Bedford County, in : ious Quaker meet- MA ig oe roeih ys er vicmiade House of Burgesses and of the first constitutiona! convention, taken together with family documents and traditions, show him to have been an upright and useful member of society and a wise and gnergetic leader at the most important crisis of American history. ..«. After the end of the revolution Col. Lynch resumed his duties as justice of the peace and member of the Assembly. Time and again, as before the war, we find him mentioned in the court records as active for the welfare of the communify. We find him acting as ome to settle the little dis- putes of Fis neighbors, as executor of the estates of his friends ‘as one by one they passed away, as guardian of the orphans, as overseer of the poor, in ee a’ every field where a man of honor and firmness was needed. ived to see his country Tory neighbors in ime of war, to see the the United States reorganized. and to vote for the new constitution in 1788.

Soon afterwards two English pil- grims lost their way in the Holy Land and were succored by a “fayre olde man,"’ who on parting said to them, “I am Johan the Evangelyst; and saye ye vnto Edward yovr kyng that I grete him well by the token that he gaff to me, thys rynge, with hys one handes.’’ Certain it is that James IT, When detained by the fishermen of Sheer- ness on his first attempt to flee the country in 1688, contrived to hide a ring. called ‘‘the Coronation Ring.”’ in his clothing. This was a favorite ring of Mary Queen of Scots. and was sent by her at her death to James I, finally coming into the possession of George IV se Hes. og the channels by which he ob- tained all the remaining papers of the House of Stuart.

Many things may cause deafness, and very often it is difficult to trace a cause. Some people inherit deafness. - Acute diseases like scarlet fever sometimes cause deafness. But by far the most common cause of loss of hearing is ca- tarrh of the head and throat. A prominent specialist on ear troubles gives as his opinion that nine out of ten cases of deafness are traced to throat trouble; this is probably overstated, but it is certainly true that more than half of all cases of poor hearing were caused by catarrh. The catarrhal secretion in the nose and throat finds its way into the Fu- stachian tube and by clogging it up very soon affects the hearing, and the harden- ing of the secretion makes the loss of hearing permanent, unless the catarrh which caused the trouble is cured. , Those who are hard of hearing may think this a little far fetched, but any One at all observant must have noticed how a hard cold in the head will affect the hearing and that catarrh if long neg- jected will certainly impair the sense of hearing and ultimately cause deafness. lf the nose and throat are kept clear and free from the unhealthy secretions of catarrh, the hearing will at once great! improve and anyone suffering from yrs ness and catarrh can satisfy themselves on this point by using a fifty-cent box of Stuart's Catarrh Tablets, a new ca- tarrh cure, which in the past year has won the approval of thousands of catarrh ufferers, as well as physicians, because is in convenient form to use, contains no cocaine or opiate and is as safe and pleasant for children as for tifeir elders.

LOTTS PAST-NTSP A TCH-NOVEMBER _ 30, 1901 EQUALED PR — Banquet Scene by Jack Hubert Kelley Was a Masterpiece of Stage Setting. The striking feature of the “Hot Time Minstrels’ ‘‘doings’’ last night was that although the performance was an amateur one it was more entertaining than the ex- hibitions of professional burnt cork men. The audience which applauded the young men because of sincere appreciation, was there in both quantity and quality. The Odeon, ever a place for fashionable folk, where St. Louis hears its best singers and where classic strains draw a moderate at- tendance, was crowded Friday night. When the curtain rose there was revealed tet Edgar Lackland’s “cook turn” was well done. as pretty a stage effect as can be imagined. Preceding the appearance of the white min- atrels, seated at their embellished banquet table, Trabue Pittman and Dewey Hickey maintained their reputation as “‘jolliers.’’ They appeared in a black-face sketch enti- tled “Hungry,” which kept the audience in laughter. Then Henry Willis Newton, styled the “Pied Piper of the City by the Lake,” did a heavier role His tenor voice won mer- ited applause. Joe £ Desberger in a dramatic recitation, “The Uncle,” held the big hall in silence. He was good. His prowess in the tragic reminded one of R rt Nourse. Then the curtain rose on ‘the real thing,’’ The Hot Time Minstrels. The stage and the hall were dark. Gradually the many colored electric lights were turned on, throwing mellow rays across the banqeut table and the faces of the min- strels. e stage decorations were designed under the management of Jack Hubert Kelly. Mr. Kelly is an artist. Messrs. Pittman, Hickey, Davidson and Dauer were waiters. They did the jokes which were adequately limited in number and funny.

In the stanza relative to Mr. Cronin, fornmrer s ker of the House of Delegates, the walter’s words “There can't be nothin’ doin’ when you're doin’ nothin all the time,’ Mr. Pittman brought down the house. Steve Martin was down on the program as the “easy money” artist. Mr. Martin's song, “My Queen from Floredora,’’ was not a sinecure, however. The high notes go away up and Mr. Martin's voice went away up with them every time. The song, as everyone who has heard it knows, is beau- tiful and The Hot Time Minstrel’s tenor did it justice. His notes were clear and the applause which followed his singing lasted several minutes. Dewey Hickey, in gay attire, sang “Every Nigger Had a glan On.”’ His raglan Was scariet and his silk hat green. The “‘Hot Times’’ will handicap Hickey against Carroll Johnson and pet last night s box office receipts on their man. “The Sentinel Asleep,”” by Burt McKinnle was especially good because of the easy manner in which the young man rendered the piece. Mr. McKinnie’s well trained voice was seconded by the boom his lungs ea received on the links of the Country Club. John A. Dauer was “something marvel- ous’ in ‘“‘My Lady Hottentot."” He was billed to be so and he upheld the acumen John Dauer is a real ‘‘Min-ster-rell man.” of the builder of the Hot Time Minstrels’ program. The audience caught the spirit of the song as they did when Mr. Frank David- son sang the ‘‘Ragtime Millionaire,”’ John. Rohan sang ‘Excelsior.’ Mr. Rohan’s voice is one of the best of the Hot Time Minstrel band. Edgar Lackland had an unique part in ‘The Cook which he disposed of in excellent manner. Joseph Buse = tenor solo, ‘Tis All I Ask.”’ was good and Mr. Buse received a bunch of roses when he had finished his encore. The minstrels, black and white, ended the performance with the famous bachslor ‘Stein Song ”’ All told, the Hot Time Minstrels’ show was a big success, and there was “stand- ing room only,’ at 8:30. “Uncanonized,"’ brought her into immedia.- recognition; ae Read, Helen H.

Two million words were counted, which gave character- istic curves for different . authors. Thus the curves for Shakspeare and Bacon are so entirely different as to show that there was no common authorship. é% DAY WITH ROYALTY, B. C. A 475."’ copyrighted by A. L. . Stonecypher, Omaha, is an example of the quaint in ty- pegraphy and binding. It contains forty ages, on heavy paper, of a tint that sug- aes ancient papyrii, the resemblance being furthered by the style of illustration, which ts Egyptian. he illustrations are almost the entire thing and are well drawn and harmonious with the Egypuan_ idea.

As to the letterpress it would have shown better taste had it been set in ‘‘pi.”’ “The Victors,”’ Robert Barr's latest novel, as it happened, became a feature of some importance in the recent political campaign between Tammany Hall and its opponents. The chief character of the story is the political leader in his party, and is a frank and unscrupulous exponent of the spoils system. Parts of the story bearing on the govern- ment of the metropolis are those describing the clubbing of Monro, the blackmailing of the great department store of McAllister Munro & Co., the theft of an election by the future “boss” of the city and his pur- chase of a Fifth avenue palace with part of hie ‘‘spoils.”* page to the novel, calling it ‘‘A tale of in- tense and virile American life—the life of the great metropolis, political, commercial and social.

How Many Friends Are Hurt by Coffee. It would be just as reasonable for a temperance advocate to drink a little di- luted whisky as to drink coffee, for one is as truly an intoxicant as the other, and persistence in the use of coffee brings on a variety of chronic diseases, notorious among which are dyspepsia, heart palpitation (and ultimately heart failure), frequently constipation, kidney diseases, many cases of weak eyes and trembling condition of the nerves. This is only a small percentage of the great variety of diseases which come from an unbalanced nervous system, caused by the persistent daily use of the drug caffeine, which is the active principle of coffee. Another bit of prima facie evidence about coffee is that the victims to the habit find great difficulty in giving it up. hey will solemnly pledge to them- selves day after day that they will aban- don the use of it when they know that itis shortening their days, but morning after morning they fail, until they grow to despise themselves for their lack of control. Any one interested in this subject would be greatly surprised to make a systematic inquiry among prominent brain workers in America. here are hundreds of thousands of our most prominent people that have abandoned coffee altogether and are using Postum Food Coffee in its place, and for the most excellent reasons in the world. Many of them testify that ill health, nervous prostration, and consequent in- ability to work, has in times past pushed them back and out of their proper stand- ing in life, which they have been able in by the use of good health, nerves. and great vitality since s been thrown out and the Pos- The New York World devoted an entire p ganization, growme naturally out of our great hotbed of prosperity, political and social as well as economic. Mr. Barr comes to his task well qualified.”’ B. West Clinedinsat in his frontispiece for the novel has depicted the scene wheré the ‘“boss’’ is purchasing his residence, say- ing: “T’'ll) take this shanty just as she stands.’’ § For 25 years the poet Swinburne has made. his home with r. Theodore Watts- »unton, the poet, novelist and critic, and iieg, | GaEmORe friend of Dante Gabriel Ros- setti. Mr. Swinburne’s every wish is regarded by his friend, with whom he was frst associated as one of the group that Ros- setti gathered about him. He has relatives who would have been happy to welcome him, but he has preferred the absolute se- clusion of the Some ordered and in- tellectual household a “The Pines. Shrinking from association with the out- side world, averse to meeting people and referring quiet and _ seclusion, he has ound his desires fulfilled under his friend's roof. His appreciation of these things he has indicated in his dedicatory sonnet in -Tris- tram of Lyonesse; and Other Poems.”’ During the quarter of a century that Mr. Swinburne has made his home with Mr. Watts-Dunton the first consideration has been regard for the poet’s wishes and com- fort. or many years Mr. Swinburne has withdrawn himself completely from Lon- don literary life to the extent that he might pass unknown in an assemblage of his con- temporaries. ‘you have seen Swinburne?” said a noted ‘Ther writer to me at the Garrick Club. you have done more than the rest of us. With the progress of years the poet's desire for isolation has grown stronger. His life is lived at ‘‘The Pines,”’ in its shady garden, and on Wimbledon Com- mons. This limit he very rarely passes, ' working for the major part of the day in his study on the first floor, a roomy lace with windows overlooking the gar- den. The threshold of his sanctum is nevér passed by any visitor at “The Pines.’’ He is sOROnGhy Sverre to being written about, and Mr. atts-Dunton has devoted care and forethought to seeing that the poet's wishes are strictly followed. Writers and interviewers come every — d to ‘The ines,”’ ‘as a matter of pilgrimage or of curiosity. Every -— they walk away, gen- erally carrying wit them as sole infor- mation regarding the place a, knowledge of the appearance of-the outside of the house and the picture-hung wa!ll.—William Armstrong, in the December Critic. The December Era offers a rich and va- ried selection of timely articles, stories and poems, which, taken in connection with the regular features, make up the best number yet issued of this magazine. The Era is now one of the most extensively quoted monthly publications in this coun- try. Frederick A. Stokes Company announces for publication in the spring of 1902 new fiction by the following well-known au- thors: rances Hodgson Burnett, Samuel H. Church, Alfred enry Lewis, John Oliver Hobbes (Mrs. Craigie), Max Pember- ton, Charles G. D. Roberts, Theodore Burt Sayre and Charles R. Sherlock. In addition to these works they are to have a new novel of great importance by a hitherto unknown American writer, Orton Lisle. Great expectations of success are held for this book, which is to be a long tale of Ephesus and Rome in the first cen- tury A. , Frederick H. Seymour, the clever orig- inator of ‘‘Yutzo,’’ has just completed for the Stokes Company a new volume entitiea ‘“Son,."’ which is to Se a companion to “VYutzo”’ in many ways, and yet is to be a new departure both in make-up and in the form of the aphorisms. PANAMA WAR ENDED. Rebels at Colon Surrendered to Capt. Perry, U. 8S. N. COLON, Nov. 30.—The Liberal force here surrendered to the United States force un- der Capt. Perry of the battle-ship lowa. This was done in accordance with the agreement made at the conference on the American gunboat Marietta. Gen. Alban, commander of the govern- ment forces, entered the city with 360 men. Capt. Perrp handed the town_over to him as the representative of the Colon vern- ment. Gen. de la Rosa, the Liberal chief, subsequently surrendered his sword to Gen. A n.

PLAN OF THE WEDNESDAY CLUB This Course, They Say, Would Make Possible the Caring for Those Remaining. At the meeting of the Wednesday Club Wednesday afternoon, Presidents day was eelebrated. Two prizes, graceful medal cups, were awarded by the president to Mrs. Edward B. Hull for the best poem and Miss Jennie M. Jones for the best story. The Current Topic Section at their last meeting discussed the subject of insuf- ficient service offered to citizens by the transit company and it was decided in view of the lack of attention paid to indi- vidual complaints, to lay the matter before the “St. Louis Civic Improvement League” when that body becomes fully organized. In connection with the World’s Fair the beautifying of St. Louls was discussed and various plans proposed in favor of abolish- ing the unsightly advertisements now seen on all high board fences, to clean up all vacant lots, to plant shade trees in back yards, Also to close every other street running north and south and thus fewer streets would remain to be cared for and those closed might be beautified, thus making miniature parks for children. The leasing of wegrngue University to the Fair caused a division of opinion as to the final benefits to accrue therefrom. Lachmund read a paper on Aristotl’es Idea] of Education.

OTHER ISSUES WERE QUIET Local Bank Stocks Neglected and Hardly Quoted—Interest in Trust Stocks Quiet. Except for Aboved Named. Today's session of the Stock Exchange was not only a repetition of the past two days In the way of heavy dealings in cer- tain issues, but a record breaker for a Sat- urday. Never since the Exchange was or- ganized has there been witnessed such a scene of wild excitement as characterized the proceedings on the floor this morning It was a wild and crazy market, and so quickly were sales made and so confusing was the noise that it was found utierly impossible to keep track of the sales made. The storm center hovered around St. Louis Transit and Missouri Trust. These two had the floor and while at their most active point everything else was neglected. The week on the Stock Exchange has been a lively one, but today’s experiences discounted ail previous records in the way of excitement, though the total dealings were probably smaller. Yet as remarked above, the day bears the palm for a Saturday. The first stock taken hold of when the market opened for business was Missouri Trust, which was found to not only have recovered trom its late depreseion and weakness, but had developed run- away features over night, the market opening with buyers and sales at $4.50 higher and advan-- ing and selling another point higher. Tue buy- ing orders were heavy and urgent, and the ag- gregate salee over 1100 shares, the range pald be- ing from $150 to $151 and bulk of sales at $150. Another lively and excited stock, which divided the honors with Misscuri Trust, was st. Lows Transit. At New York a stronger and higher market was reported by wife, to which the market here responded in a manner to create the wildest sort of excitement on ‘change, the highest point in the history of the stock being reached, and the dealings being the second to the largest of the week. The noise and confusion was very great during the tradi in this etock,-and more than once the Seehere kad to be called to order. The opening price was 1\% points higher at $33.50, from which there waa a steady advance to $34, which was a gain over night of $1.75 per share. The total sales, as far as they could be followed, were close on to 2000 shares. The preferred stock was queter, but sold fairly well, and was stronug- er in price, but the bonds were unchanged. There was a fairly active demand for Lincoln Trust with sales at $295 and $205.50, and also for Continent- al National Bank stock, which sold sharply higher, but otherwise the various issues outside of the twe leaders were neglected and price changes were few.

A Satisfactory Wind-Up to a Week of “Activity. The week in local financial circles closed today encouragingly active and in a manner'to show that there has been no serious abatement in the pros- perous conditions that bave been the. feature of the trade and financial situation of the city, and bankers interviewed have nothing but cheering words to say of the future.

DISS DE BAR IN A SCENE Lue Woman Accused One of Her Own Witnesses of Murdering Her Husband. LONDON, Nov. 30.—In anticipation of this beins the last appearance in public of Theo- dore Jackson and Laura. Jackson (Ann Odelia Diss DeBar) before their committal for trial at the Old Bailey, the Marylebone Police Court was crowded today. The prin- cipal witness during the day’s proceedings was Dr. Mary Adams, whose testimony the female prisoner declared, at the last hear- ing, would prove that the present charges were the result of a conspiracy on the part of the promoters of a rival sect known as the Koreshan Unity. The female prisoner's cross-examination of Dr. Adams ied to several scenes, during which Mre. Jackeon denounced Dr. Adams as the murderess of her husband. According to the evidence of Dr. Adams, she ‘left Ohio in 1899, and got mixed up with the prisoners et Glen Echo, a suburb of Washinaton. She further testified that the prisoners obtained from her money under false pretenses and lured her to NeW York. She accompanied them to England, Paris and Cape Town. Finding that the trend of Dr. Adame’ evidence was unpalatable, the female prisoner suddenly shouted: ‘Your husband died of poison, didn't he” “No,” replied Dr. Adams. At this point the male prisoner jumped to his feet. ” ‘You are a murdress,”’ he shouted. Mrs. Jackson calmed her husband, and then continued to cross-examine Dr. Adams, who denied that she was ever accused of murdering her husband.

SIDENER THEN DISMISSED 52 Court Reaffirmed Former Ruling That Southern.Company Is Not Proved a Gambling Resort. Fifty-two defendants, arrested Nov. 22 in the ofiice of the Southern Telegraph and Money Order Co. and charged with fre- quenting a gambling house, were dils- charged Saturday morning by Judge George B. Sidener of the City Hall Police Court. Nineteen defendants, charged with the same offense, failed to answer to their names, and bond forfeitures were declared in those cases. Mdwerd Butler and Chris Schawacker were bondsmen for 11 of the men, the other eight having been released by the police on their own recognizance. Tic bonds are in for $200 each. : The discharge of the 52 men followed the “arnouncement of City Attorney Perry Post faylor that the evidence offered by the city in the cases would be the same offered last Saturday in similar cases. Judge Sidener discharged the defendants of a week before on the ground that the Southern Telegraph and Money Order Co.'s establishment had not been shown to be a gambling house. : The names of the defendants were called by Deputy Marshal Smith, and, as each an- swered, he was instructed by Clerk Regan to “go on home.”’ Attorney Charies T. Noland, representing the defense, had insisted on separate trials for the defendants, and an all-day session of court was averted only by the city at- torney’s refusal to introduce new testi- mony. The bonds of the following defendants were declared forfeited against Butler and Schawacker: Charles Pensa, Albert Hamilton. Goodwin Grover, William A. Thompson, Charles Col- lins, Michael Wilson, Peter J. Walsh, J. B. Scott, Frank Jones, James W. Clark, Will- iam Page. Judge Willis Clark of the Court of Crimi- nal Correction will render a decision next Tuesday in the cases against nine of the company employes, charged with violating the breeders’ law. At Friday afternoon's session of the trial Attorney Oland took the stand and ex- plained the manner in which the company conducted its business. He said no bets were made in the company’s office, but that the company merely transmitted messages to Louisville. The business, he declared, was a legiti- mate one, and the company had a right to send messages to Louisville on any subject. The blackboards in the place, he said, were maintained by the editor of a sporting pa- per, conducted in an adjoining room. Lieut. Johnson, for the city, described the company’s methods from his standpoint. and said he saw wagers laid and tickets casheg. Detective Kelley said he had bet on a horse and lost.
