D. Cabaine became involved in a fight which ended by a stunning blow from a motorman’s controller. Mrs. Cabanne, who took no part in the encounter, was knocked down by the mo- torman. The motorman, C. M. Prater of 510 Leon- ard avenue, spent Wednesday night as a prisoner in the Eighth District Police Sta- lion, The conductor, M. R. Craemer of 519 Leonard avenue, was released on bond acter weing arrested. Warrants charging assault with intent to kill were issued against the motorman afd conductor Thursday.

Mr. Cabanne stood by his wife, who sat next to the aisle, and Dr. Burnett stood near enough to join in con- versation with them. As more passengers boarded the car, the conductor ordered the two men to ‘“‘move forward.’ They did not comply with his demand, and were jostled, they say. Jostled as He Passed Out. This happened frequently during the trip westward. At the corner of Maryland and Euclid avenues all the passengers were given transfers and told to take another car. As the Cabannes passed out Mr. Cab- anne was again jostled. He turned angrily on the conductor, with whom he had had a controversy a few minutes before. The two men fought on the platform of the car, and Cabanne was getting the better of the con- ductor when the mgtorman rushed to the scene, controller in hand. Mrs. Cabanne, who was in the motor- man’s way, received a blow in the face. Then the controller was brought into play on Cabanne'’s head. The young man was stunned by the blow and as he was taken to the nearest drug store, witnesses of the assault called Policeman Foerster, who arrested both the men. Dr. Amand Ravold, who attended Mr. and Mrs. Cabanne, says that the latter suf- fered only a bruise, but that her husband narrowly escaped a fracture of the skull, which might have proved fatal. The motorman, after being arrested, said that both the blow which he struck Mrs. Cabanne in the face and the blow on the head which Mr. Cabanne received were ac- cidental, te first being caused by the slip- ping of his glove and tl@ second by a jerk which his hand received from some one in the crowd. Cc. G. Cabanne appeared in the City Hall Police Court for his brother Thursday morning. With M. R. Craemer, the con- Mrs. Cabanne se- Cabanne with his elbow. ‘‘Purposely the conductor seemed bent on annoying him, but not until we reached Boyle avenue was there a serious clash. ABOUT TO GET OFF. “At that point Mr. Cabanne, to avoid trouble, was about to get off, when the conductor using the most abusive language, dared him to ride to the end of the line. ‘‘The conductor called him a coward, and the epithet was emphasized with stronger adjectives. Finally my husband said he would remain on the car. “When we reached Euclid and Maryland avenue the conductor struck my husband .n the face. It was a hard blow, and Mr. Cabanne struck back. “At this juncture the motorman came running through the car, and as I stepped onto the platform he raised his fist and let me have the full force of it in the right cheek. “IT was stunned for a moment. The at- tack On me was 80 unprovoked that I just did not know what to do. Never before had I even heard of such unmanly conduct even on the part of a transit company em- ploye. “After the motorman struck,me he hit Mr. Cabanne over the head with the con- troller, inflicting a severe wound on the forehead. “The police arrived promptly and placed the conductor and motorman under arrest.

He opened the door and stepped into the room, and, as he dfa so, I arose and turned toward him. In some way the revolvér was discharged, but it was purely accidental. There had been no words between us, and there was no quarreling nor scuffling.”’ Other members of the family tell a simi- lar story ofthe shooting, although, in thelr statement to the police Wednesday even- ing, they hinted that the brothers were quarreling just before James was wounded. The volice tried to get a statement from the injured man Thursday morning, but the attending physician deemed ft unwise for his patient to talk, saying his condition was too serious.

SCHOOL BOY WAS ARRESTED Thomas Comer Charged With Taking $27 From Teacher, Who Will Not Prosecute Him. Thomas Comer, a 12-year-old school boy, is under arrest at the Mounted Police Sta- tion, charged with taking $27 from Miss Henrietta Ordes, a teacher in the Roe school, at Mitchell and Forest avenues. As Miss Ordes declined to prosecute young Comer, who was, until recently, her pupil, he will be rele ased with Charles 8t. clair, 11 years old, of 2128 McCausland aye- nue and John Meehan, 12 years old, of 844 Waldemar avenue, who were arrested on a chaige of aiding Comer to bury the money in the woods near Forest avenue and the McCausland road. The money has been restored to Miss parish church. property at Jefferson avenue and Locust street, his grace has submitted a final proposal in writing to the members of that hm through their pastor, Father Gerard Power, naming terms for such a set- tlement. Influential members of the parish, among whom are Edward Butler, Sr., eer aS Nichols, John M. Sellers and Daniel Byrne, have taken the matter under - visement. The letter from the archbishop gave the parishioners until April 1, 1902, to arrive at a decision. The specific terms of the archbishop’s proposal are withheld. One of the chief objections on the part of .he church members to the sale of the property is that the propert occupied by the church had been eeded by Mrs. Ann Hunt to Archbishop Kenrick, the predeces- sor of Archbishop Kain, stipulating that it be used exclusively for the erection and maintenance ol a chure This argument was met by Archbishop Kain, who contends that the property nas now become undesirable for church pur- poses owing to business encroachments in that locality. Previous to the final pro- posal just submitted to the parishioners, Archbrshop Kain had at one time offered them $10,000 cf the proceeds of the sale of site for a new church. Both sides took the matter into court some time ago, and the suits are still pending. CHRISTMAS UPSET DON CUPID B. E.

LL a “KING” FARM 1S WW CONTROL Prices of All Grains Shoot Skyward at Chicago. CHICAGO, Dec. 5.—‘King’’ Farmer has come to Chicago, taken the Board of Trade by storm, and sent prices of all grains climbing above records. Business today on "Change was larger and more spectacular than it has been for a long time, and has rivaled the speculative enthusiasm that marked the days of Hutchinson and the other giants of the pits. Natural conditions are back of the up- shoot in prices, but bull speculation has béen the main incentive. The whole coun- tryside seems to be waking up to the ruin- shortage itn the corn crop, and the ng of wheat to stock as a consequence s brought big buying in that cereal. General advances have been made in ail options of wheat, corn and oats during the past several weeks, but the arrival of iho’.- sands of farmers and stockmen to visit the gh exhibition touched off the fuse under al the ma kets and sent pr.ces boom- ing.

Is the immortality of the soul a cor- poreal immortality brought about bs a series of several births, lives and deaths of each individual? These questions are answered affirma- tively by the Rev. Columbus Bradford, a prominent Methodist minister, belonging to the Southern Illinois district, who is at present visiting friends in Clifton Heights. Mr. Bradford has been in the ministry 20 years, and he says his new theory on the immortality of the soul was reached by long research and reasoning of biblical refer ences. At the regular meeting of the Christian ministers Monday he expounded his views on the doctrine of the soul's immortality at Agry length. The address provoked a heated discus- gion. Not all of the ministers, however, decided against Dr. Bradford. Waile not agreeing with him on essential points, the Rev. Frank Tyrrell stated that there was not one minister out of a hundred who thoroughly understood the theory of a fu- ture life; that the question was vague and Uncertain in the minds of most theological students. The Rev. John B. Brandt opposed Dr. Bradford's theory vigorously, and said he would reply to his remarke at the next min- iste-~ meeting. For the Post-Dispatch Dr. Bradford pre- pared the following statement on his the- ory of the soul's perpetual existence. BY REV. COLUMBUS BRADFORD.

I refute absolutely the theory that it is by dying that we reach immortality. whole higher today. physically, morally and epir- itually, than at any time in its history. Man dies, not because he sinned, but because he was made to dle. He was made to die because it was known to a certainty before he was created that he would sin.

I uphold the Scriptural doctrine of the resurrection, only since it is claimed that we have no example of a decayed body being resurrected, the only way for a soul to get another body after the death and decay of its former body is just as it got that former body—by being born. Besides, is the Scriptural evidence in favor of this view of a new birth after death, I trace the evidence that another birth may take place as reasonably as be- fore. Contrary to the common teaching of today. I insist that there is no evidence that the soul, that is the intelligent person- ality, leaves the body at death.

But since “‘resurrections in our race his- tory have been very few and births very many’ I take the position that birth is the established, means of recovering from death, rather than as the means of cre- _— new members of the race for all while. I have been told that my teachings re- semble those of theosophy, but my reply to that is that I never read any of the teachings of theosophy unless I did a former lifetime, so that if it can be proved that I have been influenced by that doctrine it will prove my main theory—that oo of us have lived before our present life- time. KING OF ALL THE RAGLANS. Albert A. Aal Is First in City Direc- tory and First in City's Cloak Trade. Albert A. Aal, founder of the Aal Cloak Co., 515 Locust street, for the past 20 years has been established in the cloak business in St. Louis. Years ago, at the old Par'i- Sian Cloak Co., he was justly considered the king of the cloak trade. He has éstablished himself on Locust Street and is now the king of the raglan trade of St. Louis. The beauty of his $10 raglan is unsurpassed and the number sold unequaled. His advent on Locust street has been attended with phenomenal suc- cess. The store is always a busy one. His name is the first one in the direct and everyone in St. Louis knows him to be an up-to-date, progressive cloak man. Smith Boys Not Disturbers.

Refused Right to Vaccinate Children of St. Paul’s Parochial School. The Rev. Father Francis Golker, rectot of 8S. Peter and Paul's Church at Ninth street and Allen avenue, and the Health Department officials have clashed over the uestion of the vaccination of children at dt. Paul's parochial school. Dr. Starkloff says that he sent physicians to the school, but that many children re- fused to be vaccinated and Father Golker declined to issue a compulsory order. Father Golker contends that, as the pa- rents of many children will not allow them to be vaccinated, it is not in his province to go counter to their wishces. He said that a year ago a physician con- nected with the health department, who was in disfavor with his parishioners, caHed at the school to vaccinate the chii- dren, but because of his offensive person- ality permission was refu , Dr. Starkloff will consult further wiih the health officials regarding the matter, OPEN SAFE WITH DYNAMITE.

The project is not sufficiently developed to warrant the pub- lication of details, but the indications are that it will be successfully carried through. At least four, and possibly five, of the leading real estate firms of the city have been asked to submit a price for their busi- ness and they have all complied with the request. The plan is to put the business in at about Pa 000 and to make the capital stock $1,500 A Pot na Chestnut street real estate agent is named as the prospective president of the new corporation, but he says that such mention is premature.

Miss Martha Block, daughter of Mrs. Frank Block, was married to Mr. Henry R. W-~‘sels Wednesday evening at 8 o'clock in the parlors of the Hotel Berlin. The wed- ding was one of the prettiest of the season. Only relatives and intimate friends were present at the ceremony, but a large num- ber of mutual friends attended the recep- tion which followed. Palms, banks of smilax and cut flowers decorated the parlors. A soft glow was shed over the pretty scene by scores of electric lights concealed behind the flowers. Miss Tillie Friedman, a close friend of the bride, was the maid of honor. The best man was Mr W. Weilsels, brother of the groom. The ceremony was performed by the Rev. r. Leon Harrison. ug and Mrs. Weisels will take an ex- tended bridal trip to the East. After Jan. 15 thev will receive friends at No. 15 South Euclid avenue. Degree Club Reunion. The eleventh ar-nual reunion and banquet of the St. Louis-Tcopeka Degree Club will be held Saturday evening. Dec. 7, at the Mer- cantile Club. Ameng those on the program are T. W. Murray, W. F. Parsons, John W. Black, Hiram wks Wm. Murphy, John J. Frderick and R. C. Wright. FEW PEOPLE REALIZE _ The Danger in That Common Disease, Catarrh. Because catarrhal diseases are so com- mon and because catarrh is not rapidly fatal, people too often overlook and neg- lect it until some incurable ailment de- velops as a result of the neglect. The intlamed condition of the mem- brane of the nose and throat makes a fertile soil for the germs of Pneumonia and Consumption. in fact catarrhal pneu- monia and catarrhal consumption are the most commen forms of these dreaded dis- ¢ases which annually cause more than one-quarter of the deaths in this country. Remedies for catarrh are almost as nu- merous as catarrh sufferers, but wery few have any actual merit as a cure, the only good derived being simply a temporary relief. There is. however. a very effective rem- edy recently discovered which is rapid!y becoming famous for its great value in relieving and permanently curing ail forms of catarrhal diseases, whether lo- cated in the head, throat, lungs or stom- ach. This new catarrh cure is principally composed of a gum derived from the Eu- calyptus tree. and this gum possesses ex- traordinary healing and antiseptic proper- ties. It is taken internally in the form of a lozenge or tablet. pleasant to the taste and so harmless that little children take them with safety and benefit. Eucalyptus oil and the bark are some- times used. but are not so convenient nor so palatable as the gum. Undoubtedly the best quality is found in Stuart’s Catarrh Tablets, which may be found in any drug store and any ca- tarrh sufferer who has tried douches, ju- lers and liquid medicines will be sur- ised at the rapid improvement after a ew days’ use of Stuart’s Catarrh Tablets, which are composed of the gum of the Eucalypius tree, combined with other an- a which destroy the germs of ca- tarrh in the blood and expel the catar- thal poison from the system. Dr. Ramsdell, in speaking of Catarrh and its cure, says: “After many experi- ments I have given up the i 'ea of curing Catarrh by the use of inhalers, washes. Salves or liquid medicines. I have al- ways had the best results from Stuart's Catarrh Tablets: the red gum and other valuable antiseptics contained in these tablets make them. in my opinion. far superior to any of the numerous catarrh remed fact that Stuart's Catarrh Tablets are sold in drug stores. under protection of a trademark. should not prejudice conscien- tioys physicians against them, because their undoubted merit and harmless char- acter make them a remedy which every @atarrh sufferer may use with perfect | _ Safety and the prospects of.a permanent _ For colds in the head. for coughs, ca- rrhal dea and catarrh 5 icag on »ple who have trie ‘ Chearrh Tablets ies sO extensively advertised. The} Well Dressed Elsie D: Wo'f, B-st Dressed Ac- tress in Amer.ca, Adv ses Girl S:udents What to Wear. III—The Girl Student. The great colony of girl students—music and art and the stage—are, I have noticed, very well dressed indeed, as a rule. But many of them do not dress economically, though their appearance suggests that they have really tried to, and to these L want to give some hints about choosing gowns for their schools. The girl student, tn planing Jher ward- robe, has to make allonances for the certain concerts and musicales and studio teas that are a part of her education. She must bave £0wns, not only for her work but fur these oc®asions, and she is wise who realizes that at any rate a little of her future may de- pend upon the appearance she will make before her masters and her fellow studenis. And, since her manner is a good bit de,-end- ent upon her clothes, upon her clothes does her general appearance largely depend. arst, though, the “‘wo.k co.hes, since those are necessities, whereas, if the un- fortunate has to, she can Stay away from the social things. I have been asked what I think of a rag- lan as an outside garment. Of course, thet depends upon the wearer. know nothing more ugly on some fig- ures, sspecilally when the garment has a Straight-cut back. But if the wearer has the good sense to choose the special cut of garments that sults her, the r glan often looks very well. 4 Ordinarily not a word is to be sald avainst their serviceableness. They are ad- mirably adarted to the uses of one who is obliged to be out in all sorts of weather. i advise a raglan, therefore, and espe- Clally for the Gril Student, because, if she has one she will not need a long wrap for evening. Because the Girl Biuaent goes about in street cars, and if anything is forlorn it is to see a light gown trailing in a car worn with a tallor coat. A raglan obviates this and is a general winter coat for all weathers. Little Coat With Raglan. Besides the raglan I suggest that your short skirt should have a little coat to xo with it. Your own circumstance will dic- |tate what the coat Is to be. Tf you need a trith and rather stunniag j little coat to wear with a silk rt, for jinsta @: of afternoons, or to the theater, | when ,ou go wearing a dark skirt, then the coat re! e of black velvet or black mo- hair, a bit trimmed, or any rough goods, with or without a fur collar. But if you uave greaicer need of a coat for more ordinary wear, then a ready-made tallor-jJacKet will be best, and if it can match your short skirt so much the better. For, of course, vou have a short skirt. I take that quite for granted because, as I have been saying every day, it is a neces- sity, and it is especially so to anyone whose work takes her on the street in all sorts of weather. I never wear a long skirt on the street, because I do not think it is clean. As to waists, it seems to me that the gir) student is the excéption to the rule of wear- hat will wash. What, PR Rhy OT — —_ ble ink, washable tok waists are not an economy Shirtwaists of soft flannel, in dark colors or of black satin, are most serviceable. Must Have Them Well Made. The necessity to have them well made, and I would suggest her having only two for all winter, but having these two made by a good. shirt maker. One word of advice about the color of your waists: Don't try to wear white flan- nel. For the house nothing is prettier; for the schoolroom, and of course for a shop or office nothing is less possible. It will soil almost at once and even a slightly soiled shirtwaist is an offense. Wear black or dark blue or dark red, and give up white and grays and tans. I know of no gown prettier for the girl student than a soft black waist worn with a black skirt and belt, and the coliar and sleeves with one of the little linen cam- bric turned-over strips. She needs a silk waist for matfinees and church, and even for calls, and that suits her—perhaps like the silk waist I suggest- ed pesteresy. I'- know very many modistes tell you that a waist and skirt toilette is an abomina- tion, but they don’t have to work, and they don’t know what a necessity is a silk waist. The girl student must have one or two : , 4.927. - a - @l~) Werner's Former Store. bd = , . ¥ : & : a e - ‘ 3 ‘s Gury wo ED ect ae coh RR ne EE ee er ore rv net ™ a Se ae ee ™ Se psa y ‘ a PR BAT ch Titres v3 f ae, Ar Ngai F 7 tee Sete ee ie a . . ke i Re, % # by aL iS 2 rt ; j ag * $ ny oS 4 A . ¢ 7 . * ni s Bs. 4 + : ¢ : 5 z Pe a " te Page . & * . ier = ee ~ i : " 2 . . se rs, . . . bee) f a o 4 f ee eee ES .

Uncut Magazines. “Why is it that they never cut the maga- zines?’’ A million men and women ask this ques- tion anew every month. Why is it? Can't you guess? | There is always a mystery about that which {s veiled. A thing so simple that “‘he who runs may read” is seldom read. You pick Up a magazine in a book store. Ralf, or more than half, of the leaves are uncut. It'is/a nuisance, you say. No doubt it is. A word, a picture, a para- graph or a stanza catches your eye. What is the article? Who is the author? You cannot tell. You try to open the leaves far enough to see, but the paper is so stiff you fear to tear it and give it up. Besides, you are in a hurry. Still, you are interested, and rather than forego the pleasure of pur- suing the idea that has caught your fancy, you buy the magazine and away you go. Now, had the leaves been cut, your curi- osity might have been satisfied at once, or you might have skimmed through the arti- cle and let it go at that. Don’t you suppose the publisher of that magazine knows of this little quirk in hu- man tiature? It would not cost him any- thing to cut his leaves, but he knows it would not pay. His short cut to fortune is through his uncut pages. Another thing you will observe. It seems paradoxical, but it is not. The leaves con- taining the advertisements are all cut and open readily. Why? Because the advertiser says they must be so. A man will probably read an adver- tisement if it is placed before him, but he will not go to the trouble of ripping open the leaves of a magazine to get at them, to gaze on the wonders of somebody's tooth powder or shaving soap, or to learn the name of the best hygienic underwear. The advertiser knows this; and in making his contract he stipulates that the page con- taining his display shall be free and open. These &re not tricks. The advertiser and the publisher simply take advantage of these little human idiosyncrasies. If somebody will elevate the stage, Frank James will guarantee to ho!d it up. GREAT AMERICAN VINEYARDS. “It will surprise most people, I am sure, to know that there are invested in vine- yards and wine cellars in the United States not less than $170,000,000,"" said a dealer i American wines. ‘There are at least 400,09 acres of land in this country ah antes in vineyards, of which perhaps ,000 acres are in California alone. Of that area, be- tween 30,000 and acres are in raisin grapes. California alone grows the raisin grape. Gf the California grapes, seven- eighths go to the winepress, while of the grapes grown in all the rest of the union three-fourths are marketed for table use. The raisin-growing counties of California, four in number, will cure 2,000,000 boxes of rons ry year, which will be worth all “The grapes grown in California today include all varieties that have made the vineyards of Europe famous, including the Cabernet, Sauvignon, Carbanet, Franc, IMalbeck, Tarant, Merlot, and St. Laurent eee from the Bordeaux districts of rance; Martaros grapes from the isiand of Palos; Semillons and Sauvignons from Sauterne; Pinot and Petit Sirrah grapes from the Burgurdy districts; Johannesberg- ers, Traminers and Franken Rieslings froin the storied Rhine; Chasselas grapes from Alsace-Lorraire, and the rich Bergers from Moselle. It is from these numerous varie ties of gra that the wines of California are pressed. ‘The famous Chaliosa and Folie Blanche cognac grapes are also largely grown, ine wine from them being made into brandy. Then there are the rich Spanish Musca and the favorite Hungarian table grape, the Flaming Tokay. In no other vine region in the world are all these splendid grapes found growing side by side. But it is a fact that with all their royal lineage, these famous vineyards would be of no account at all if virility were not given them by grafting upon the varieties of our native wild grape, which alone resists that deal- ly enemy the forel grapevines, the phylloxera, and which transmit their re- sistant quality to the alien vine. “While California is known as the home of American wines, it is a fact that the state is not a successful champagne pro- ducer. California alone produces more than one-half the entire still-wine output of the ccuntry, the wineries being numbered vy the thousands, but there are but two champagne cellars in the state, and their output is small. New York state manu- factures three-quarters of all the Ameri- can champagne of the country, about 75,000 cases, and, should American champagne take the place of the imported, it will not be to California that we must look for it, but to New York, Ohio and Missouri. And it will be made, as it is now, after the French method, but out of genuine native American grapes.’’—New York Times. CLEVER LITTLE STORIES. A wealthy American who took the waters at Carisbad last summer was given minute ctions by his physician, who dis- snianed him with this junction: “As for smoking, you must limit yourself to three daily; three light cigars and no ore.” A few days later he returned to ask the doctor if he could not reduce his al- lowance of tobacco to two cigars, as it made him deathly sick to smoke. “Why, man, what in the world do you smoke for at all if that is the case?” the doctor roared. ‘But, doctor, wasn't it you your- self who said ‘three cigars a day and no more?” Of course, I thought they were part of the cure and began upon them, though I never smoked before. An army officer back from the Philip- pines tells the following story of a callow young officer whose mistakes are a fre- quent source of amusement to his com- rades: Early in his military experience the lieutenant was awakened one night by the sentry who ssed by his tent calling out the hour ow x vouchsafing the information, “all's well.’ The youth turned over and settled down to another nap, but the next hour was awakened again by the unwel- come call. When this had been repeated the third time he decided to endure it no longer, and going to the door of his tent, called out: “Look here, it’s ve kind of you to tell me the time, but have 4 watch here by my |, #0 please spare yourself further trouble.

Last week a photographer dropped in on Edward Knippenberg, the wholesale por with a proposition for a picture-taking se- ance. “You ought to have a fice,’"” he said ds “Here you -have a busy place and a lot of clerks and it would look well to have the place photo- graphed and send copies of the picture to some of your best customers.”’ He continued in this strain for some time | and Mr. Knippenberg finally consented to having a flashlight taken. The camera » was placed in posi- tion and the emt A rapher gave explicit directions about the conduct of all the clerks and of heads of the house when the flashlight — be sprung. on them, ‘‘Now, keep a pleas- ant look on your face every man have his pencil] in his hand and above all keep your icture of the of- got the flash was rsdn 4 Then the photograpnh- er went away to de- velop the plate. © inay will show a busy place,’”’ he said as he went out. Next day he came back bringing with him a proof and a woebegone expression. “It doesn’t look quite as busy as i thought it would,”’ he said. And it didn’t. When the flash was sprung on them they had all involunta- riiy closed their eyes. Instead of looking like a busy wholesale house it looked us though every man in the place, including the head of the house, was fast asleep at his desk. A NECKTIE STORY. Police Capt. Phillips is not only a lo- gician, but an adept in physiognomy and hrenology as well. He is a local Sherlock Holmes. who, by detecting the odor of mint sauce on your coat, concludes you have dined on roast lamb. It is more than a mere whim that induces him to escort visitors through his rogues gallery, where he delivers an interesting dissertation on the more remarkable crim- inals with a commentary of his own. Recently, accompanying a quartet of gen- tlemen to his ae sed he mentioned as a ftmatter of a gee ogical interest that about 19 out of 20 criminals wore four-in- hand neckties. One of his visitors happened to notice his own tie at that moment, and laughingly ob- served it was a four-in-hand Capt. Phillips blushed. “Flello!’’ exclaimed visitor No. quettes are delicious for breakfast. , Soften one cupful of cold cooked hminy with @ little hot milk.

City Attorney Perry Post Taylor has ceased to wear the handsome fob chain, to which was attached his handsome gold wateh, with monograms, diamonds and oth- er eles ey artistica'ly placed. For a y and a night Mr. Taylor ceased to wear the watch, and even now he is undecided as to whom he is indebted for the ee of carrying it. Mr. Taylor ‘was at the Four Courts, witness before the Board of Police Commis- tloners, recently. hile standing in the corridor he was met by Assistant Chief of Detectives James H. Smith. There was the usual courteous interchange of greetings and the detective no- ticed at a glance how easy it would be for @ pickpocket to re- lieve the city attor- ney of his watch. He decided to give him a lesson. It was an eary matter for Mr. Smith to remove the watch without Taylor's knowledge. The at- torney did not dis- eover his loss for an hour or more. Mean- time Smith had post- those around headquarters and ry oy Be watch oO e ely. tome Finally missed He rushed to Smith to report his loss. Smith listened patiently. and censured Tay- lor for being so careless as to wear so handsome and valuable a watch in the manner he had. Taylor was turned over to a detective ana a full description was iven. Next morning Mr. Taylor received a mes- sage to call at the office of the chief of olice. As he entered Chief Kiely handed im a watch and asked if it were his. Taylor identified it joyfully. Then Detective arry Frese, who is a fair imitator of Baron Munchausen when the occasion requires, told Mr. Taylor how he had gone to a pawnbroker’s office and described the watch, and how, when the thief had come to dispose of it, he had arrested the thief and recovered the watch. And Mr. Taylor believed Frese and com- anes the police department on its clever work. ON ee ee ~~ o_o over night; then add the other ingredients.

[ suggest to our city officials just to take a look at the cars; they are filthy. The con- luctors do not get time to clean out the cars as they did; in former times they got at least three to five minutes at one of the road to sweep the cars.

The reason for the delay is said to be a disagreement between the university au- thorities and the World’s Fair officials re- garding the exact wording of the lease. Washington University, through Robert Brookings and his attorney, Mr. Hitch- cock, insists that the lease should read ‘to Dec. 1, 1903.’ President Francis and Counsel-General Blair for the Fair insist that it should read:: ‘‘Until after the Fair close.”’ Several conferences have taken place over the matter but no agreement, it is said, has been reached. Mr. Brookings has stood firm, it is given out, for the uni- versity’s position, and Mr. Francis has been equally firm for the Fair. The issue is the same that was raised when Mr. Francis tried to lease the Skink- er property from Thomas K. Skinker. Mr. Skinker wanted to have it agreed that he should receive his property back Dec. 1, 1903; Mr. Francis that the lease should expire after the Fair closed. Mr. Skinker, it is said, wanted to know why Dec. 1, 1903 was not satisfactory, since the Fair was to be held in 1903. Mr. Francis, it is said, replied that it was impossible to tell what Congress might do and it might take some action, making the postponement of the Fair necessary. ANARCHISTS AND ASSASINS. First Speech in Congress on the Pro- posed New Legislation. WASHINGTON, Dec. 6.—The announce- men that Senator McComas (Md.) would inaugurate the discussion on the suppres- sion of anarchy and anarchists filled the Senate, galleries today. . Mr. McComas spoke in support of his bill providing the death penalty for assaults upon the President, or for inciting, ad- vising or procuring such assaults. The Senator spoke of the dangerous spread of anarchy, President Carnot, Prime Minister Canovas, the Empress of Austria, King Humbert and = rpainent McKinley having been foully assassinated by anarenists with- in the last seven years. It was humill- ating, he said, to consider the impotency ot our federal laws to punish this fearful crime, The Senator spoke of the revolutionary propagande under the guiding hand of Herr ost and the Nihilist Hartman, and the formation, since 1881, of anarchist groups. Congress must now legislate against this = with courage, firmness, conserva- ism and prudence. Senator Hoar followed, advocating the establishment of a penal colony on an is- land in the sea to be occupied by those who advocated the slaying of rulera There was no reason why men who tried to over- throw all governments, who wanted no government, should not be deported to a place where they could put their theories to a test. Banis ent from this country, he believed to = lawful punishment and could be enforced. HORSE BREEDERS MEET. Strong State Association Formed at Mexico. Mo.

ASPHALT STREETS OR DOWNTOWN a Plan for Resurfacing Granite Is Being Considered. PROPERTY OWNERS WOULD PAY SCHEME WILL GO BEFORE COUN- CIL COMMITTEE, DEC. 27. Olive, Pine, Locust, Washington and Broadway Are the Thoroughfares Now Named by the Board of Public Improvements. Pians for resurfacing downtown granite streets with coatings of asphalt are being considered by the street committee of the Board of Public Improvements, The streets on which it proposed to place a surface of asphalt are Olive, Pine, Lo- cust, Washington, the central section of Broadway and possibly other streets which are much used for carriage driving. The cost of the resurfacing would fall on the owners of the business property along the streets, Whether the space enclosed by street railway tracks would be resurfaced is a point which the committee has not yet decided. The expense of this part of the work would fall on the street railway com- panies. The street committee drove over the downtown streets and a number of West End thoroughfares Wednesday afternoon, considering the question of materials and preparing ihe list of streets for the first public hearing on street reconstruction, Street Commissioner Varrelmann sald Thursday that the first hearing Would prob- ably be held on Dec. 27. At that time pro- posals for the reconstruction of streets leading from the downtown district to the mgD = zai) 5B esiieiurney Requires a foundation. That is just as arue of the building up of the body as of the building of a house. The founda- tion of a strong body is a strong stom- ach. No man can be stronger than his stomach. A weak stomach means a weak man. ’ i Dr. Pierce’s Golden Medical Discovery cures diseases of the stomach and other organs of digestion and nutrition. It enables the perfect digestion and assimi- lation of the food which is eaten. Thus it builds up the body and restores strength in the only way known to Nature or to science—by digested and assimilated food. "While living in Charlotte, N. C., your medi- cine cured me of asthina and nasal catarrh of ten years’ standing,” writes d; L. Lumsden, ., of 221 Whitehall! Street, Atlanta, Ga. “At that time life was a burden to me, and after spending hundreds of dollars under numerous doctors I was dying by inches. I weighed — 131 pounds.
