If he did he would certainly be mobbed. His picture has been withdrawn from the kinemetograph exhibitions in the music halls throughout Holland owing to the flerce demonstrations of anger it provoked. Queen Wilhelmina’s subjects may not credit the current stories of Prince Henry's brutalism to the full, but they know the marriage of thefr sovereign has been very unhappy and scout the idea that the. im- perious, petulant temper of the young Queen is in any way accountable for what has happened. The first printed accusations against Prince Henry appeared in the Rhentsh ‘| press ot eee | the Dutch frontier. He was charged bluntly with neglect and drunken- ness...

NPW YORK, Dec. 7.—The following interview with Johann Beck, the ‘‘Packing-Box Man,"’ is the first authentic statement made by him since his arrival as freight on the steamship Palatia. Beck lay in a half-sitting position on his cot, in the medical ward, on the top floor of St. Mary's .Hospital, Hoboken. For the first time he was able to talk clearly and coherently, and to give hie history. He is still weak and emaciated, but’ is fast regaining strevgth.

But I knew that the American law would not let us stay in the United States unless we had some money. “When Johanna went home to WisSmar times grew worse. I tried to sell door- plates when I could get no work at my. trade. I tried everything I could think of, but I could not get ahead. I was not sink- ing, for I always had a little money left, but t could not add anything to it. “Why not go to America and earn money and send for Johanna? I thought. But how should I get 120 marks: ($30), and I never had more than 20 or 30 marks at a time. It was early In November that I be- an to think of sending myself to America na box of freight.

Reessing, would sail for Ameriea on the foNowing Saturday. She would take 14 days or less, they toid me—perhaps only 12 days. I had very little money, and I made up my mind that I could not wait for, the next express steamer. A day or two more would make little difference to a man ready to travel 10 days in a box. “For two marks | bought in a second- hand lumber yard the packing box in which l came here. For 30 pfennigs I bought a few strips of thin stuff about two inches wide and an eighth of an iach thick to make the faist bottom on the box lid—a sort of rack in which I could carry collars, Stationery, neckties and other things that are casily injured and which must not be put down in the box with me. For a few more pfennigs I ught four latches, or thumbscrews, to fasten the lid onto the box. I had no eyes: for these latches to fasten in, but the storekeeper gave me eight nails, which I afterward drove against each other in coae like eyes. I carried the packing-box home to my & on the evening of Wednesday, ov. 13, I told my landlady I was going to ship all my belongings over to America. My rent was paid up to Saturday night, so she did not care. I began to fit up the box on Thursday morning. A carpenter friend of mine lent men the tools. cut‘up strips of the thin stuff for battens and nailed them on the inside of the box lid so that it was al! solid like a door. Then I built the false bottom, or rack, on the box lid, and put in it all my amall belongings. “I bought for 25 pfennigs a piece of thick, ’ coarse cotton cloth, six feet six inches long and three feet wide. I got an armful of hay in a stable and carried it home. I packed it in the bottom of the box for a bed and tucked the cotton cloth around it.

POLICE ASK CITIZENS’ “ADVICE Write Them to Confer on Question of Bettering Conditions in Neighbor- hood of Union Station. At its meeting Friday afternoon. the Board of Police Commissioners adopted a resolution to invite representatives of busi- ness, social and political organizations to attend its next meeting, Dec; 18, at 2: o'clock in the afternoon to discuss with the board the advisability of compelling women of objéctionabie character to remove from the vicinity of Union 8tation. The resolution sets forth that for several years such women have resided on Chest- nut street, a portion of Pine street and the streets crossing them, between Eighteenth street and Jefferson avenue. Owing to the proximity of Unton Station, the resolution explains, these streets will be leading thoroughfares to the World's Fair greunds and, therefore, the presence of these women on those particular streets will become less desirable than ever. The resolution says that the question of locality to which they will be removed will “Wade -artafige- ing of the board.

William Walker Refused License Un- til He Produced Family Record. William Walker of East St. Louis estab- lished by Holy writ his right to secure a marriage license without his father’s con- sent. He brought to License Clerk Filliey of the St. Louis office Thursday the family Bible from his father’s home, showing the date of his birth to be more than 21 years “ago. Mir. Walker and Miss Mary Glavin, also of East St. Louis, applied for a license Thursday and were refused by Clerk Filley, who doubted the assertion of the would-be groom that he was 21 years old. Friday afternoon he returned with the prospective bride and with a number of her relatives. When Clerk Filley refused to grant the license on their statements, the young man produced the family Bible, and turned to the birth record, where he showed proof of -j brutality account for’ the’ savage resent- ©] ment prevalent’ against him, and: for the et not be decided until after the next meet- |i cosity, but it was not uritil he qyarreled at dinner table with the Queen, resulting in her illness, that these princely eccentriei- ties caused a public protest.

This unpleasant interlude, resulting in sup- pressed resentment on the prince consort’s part against the Queen; immediately pre- ceded. the intoxicated outburst at the din- ner table, with its lamentable sequels. The incident was whispered about and the Oldenberg official newspaper, under the control of Prince Henry's sister, the Grand Duchess of Oldenberg published a categor- ical denial of the whole story. This paper mentioned as conclusive evidence of Prince Henry's good feeling that he instantly sent for the Queen’s mother when the Queen was taken ill. It omitted to s‘@e that he left the palace himself the same morning, when the Queen’s life was actually in dan- ger, and went on a hunting, expedition for several days, not returning to the palace until Queen Emma had ~~? Political quarrels have. aiso played a part in estranging the young couple. Prince Henry, resentful of his unpopularity, never lost an’ opportunity of sneering at the Queen's subjects and to belittle hor court for its meanness. He repaid the chill sus- picions and reserve of the Queen's ministers with arrogant indifference. They regarded him as a chattel of the Queen’s and 3 very bad bargain to boot. . . Kaiser Forced Partial Reconciliation. Prince Henry comes of the oldest reign- ing dynasty in the western world. Mecklen- burg still groans under feudal customs and regime, and his father's rule in the duchy is almost as despotic as that of Rus- a. The freedom and independence of the Dutch jarred upon him all the time. Owing, it is said, to the personal influ- ence of the Kaiser, Prince Henry aplogized to the Queen, and they were seen in the palace grounds'at Het Loo together Thyags- day, and at least an outward recond@ja- tion has taken place. The young Queen, heretofore the pink of active, graceful, robust womanhood, now looks shockingly bad. It is said she shuts herself up alone for hours together in her apartment, when it is believed she passes the time crying over her troubles, but no one has ever seen her cry in public. Her pride is overmastering. Those who are ac- quainted with her character and tempera- ment declafe that she will never forgive her rusband and will not long endure a position intolerable to any but the meekest woman.

Bless me, what a lot of time he has missed. We must make up for this.”’ He clapped his hands three times, and in an instant a blinkin popped through the door, hastily buttoning up his red jacket and wiping candy crumbs from the corner of his mouth with the back of his hand, What, you don’t know what 4a blinkin is? Blinkins are Santa Claus’ messenger boys. Their duty is to help old Santa out on Christmas eve, when he has his hands full. If you watch closely for them when the bells strike 12 o'clock the night before Christmas you may be fortunate enough to see some of them dodging about from house to house, slipping through keyholes and down chimneys. How shall you know them? Well,.they wear red Jackets trimmed with holly: their caps are made of sugar’ frosting and their faces look like pink bon- bons, with chocolate drops for eyes. “HERE,” SAID SANTA CLAUS. ‘‘Here,”’ said Santa Claus to the blinkin, “take these books to the Post-Dispatch in- stanter (instanter means quicker than light- ning), and tell them to give them to little Barthold Bordena today und to tell him all about Santa Claus. Now, scoot!’’ Scoot means. “go at once.’’ The blinkin disappeared and at the very same moment was in the Post-Dispatch of- fice with the books and the message from Santa Claus, and in a few minutes a Post- Dispatch man was on his way to the City Hospital with a big bundle under his arm. Division four in the City Hospital is a long room, with white cots down both sides of it. In every cot someone lies, suffering. ATl, except one, are men. The one who is not a man is little Barthold Bordena, who had never heard of Santa Claus. “Santa Claus sends his love and two books,’ said the man from the Post-Dis- patch, unWrapping the parcel. “SITTING IN BED, PLAYING.” Barthold was sitting up in bed playing with a picture card, on which was a por- trait of Santa Claus himself. His yellow hair was tumbled, and he was very happy and contented: . “Santa Claus never sent me anything,” he said, “* ’cause, I guess, he never did hear of me. I never did have any toys or books. I guess if my father had lived I would, though.” “Well,” said the man, “here are two books Santa Claus has sent you, in advance of Christmas, and he hopes you will iike therm.’ - “Are they to keep?’ anxiously. It was too good to be true, and he was afraid someone would take them from him. “Your very own,” sald the man. “But I can let other people see them when they want to, can't I?’ he asked. ‘Certainly. They are yours to do with as you please.” 7 He chose the biggest book and opened it asked Barthold NMR eRe. apis, Se Re AIR tet oC 8 26 CI TRIS MT Se ae Boj boling dround ‘the margin, and‘he laughed, softly and happily.’ “Rabbits!’~ he ‘said, sententidusly. ‘‘“I' love ‘rabbits. I used to Raté one once ina cage: , “In the middie of the night I:felt some- thing snuggle down beside me. I was afraid at first, then I put my hand out just as slow ‘and soft and'feit something round and warm. It was ‘Billy, ‘my: old rabbit. He had just got cold, an@roke out-of the cage and come in to sleep with me. I had a dog once, too.” . ee 3 He turned oyer the leaves rapidly and picked out the bear- and the fox, and the sheep and the tiger,. and a lot of others, but when he came to-the tapir and th afit-eater he was up a stump. , “I don't know any of these animals,"’ he sald, ‘‘only.the old ones."’ The do-do in Mr. Oliver Herford's book, .‘‘More Animals,”’ he insisted was a duck, and he.laughed hearti- ly at the dachshund who was so long. that it was necessary to.put his picture on four pages to, get him all in the book. “THE FINEST BOOKS.” “Say,’’ he remarked judiciously, ‘these are the finest books I ever saw. They must a cost Santa Claus.a heap of money.”’ They were, indced, fine books.. ‘‘Guess,’’ by L. J. Bridgman, full of funny pictures and funnier guesses, and ‘‘More Animals,” by Oliver Herford. When he had finished looking at the pic- tures, Barthold told all about himself. ‘‘l won't get lonesome now,” he said, patting the books affectionately. “I used to. lie here just thinkin’. About the only fun | had was watchin’ two little mice that used to come, out of a hole in the corner over ere and play about. under, that bed on the ther side of the room... My, but they acted ridic-lous. They used to chase one another around and around and sit up and make noses at one another like this.’” And Bartho!d wrinkled and wriggled his own little nose in illustration. “IN TIME TO PLAY MARBLES.” “I can’ sit up now and look around and play. I got hip disease, you Know, and my leg was All bent and twisted, but the doctor he straightened if out... He gave me cali- form (chloroform) so it didn’t hurt a bit. I guess I'll be able to get out in the spring in time to play marbles. “My father was killed up in a mine in Minnesota when I was a little bit of a boy. The doctor says I ain't bigger’n a minute now,’’ and Barthold laughed at the idea. “My father was shootin’ off sgme dimanite an’ it went off before he had a chance to run.” Everyone one in division 4 loves the little lad. The nurses adore him, and the doctors respect his courage and intelligence. Since he has been in the hospital he has learned much? He can count up to 100, he knows that there are 208 bones In the human body, and the’ uses of his ‘heart and lungs. He hws learned his letters, and is eagerly de- strous of learning to read-and write. “Such fortitude as he has displayed is marvelous,”’ said the big doctor in charge of the ward, placing his hand tenderly on the toy’s head. “Such patience and philosophy I never saw.” In the next bed to Barthold, across tho aisle, is the cot of the man who fell 75 feet from a bridge and broke both his arms. Barthold looked over at him and laughed to see him being fed by a nurse. “I’m better off than Boslar,’’ he said. “I have got both my arms and can. feed my- self. It's funny to see a big man like Pete have to be fed like a baby.’’. Barthold is the Tiny Tim of the City Hos- pital—cheery, brave, lovable and d manty little chap, who is very grateful and ap- preciative. He is of the same true stuff that made the boy in Dickens’ story, “A Christmas Carol,” who said, “God bless us every one.” loved by all. THE WEATHER INDICATIONS. the , pick to . “The wagons that carry mail for us from the Union.Station are not under my super- vision. «Each wagon is allowed 2% minutes to load up the mall after the train comes in, and then deliver it to us. Pa or more clerks are always wait- ing for the wagon, but though they hurry as much-as possible they cannot wipe out those 2 minutes. With the postoffice near the Union Station all this work could be done by means of tunnels through which the mail could be passed. “Another: thing, this office often receives car loads of poStal cards and stamped en- velopes worth from $40,000 t ““At present this matter co way of.East St. Louis. .

This is a depository for empty mail bags. Most mail goes west. When the bags are empty they are sent here. “We stack them in our basement, and when we have requests for them send them in wagons to East St. Louis, from whence they are shipped. With an office at the Union Station so much transferring would not be necessary. “I advocate the building of a new postof- fice, not so much as a saving of expense, but as a needful provision for the future. We have room enough now, but we will nut have in a few years. If it is built I trust that it will be built by business men for business men in a businesslike way. “It should be ready for the World's Fair, ard I hope that all St. Louisans, regardless of faction, party or anything else, will unite 7 demanding that it be a credit to our city. “The erection of a new postoffice does not mean that this one must be discarded. This is a good building, and can be used as a place to give out mall and a headquarters for carriers. It-can still be a Postoffice. I expect the new bullding to be for Postof- fice interests only. them can remain in this building. The new office would be managed on the same lines as this one—system and cleanliness. You can’t have one without the other.”’ CHICAGO EOIFORS RELEASED Judge Dunne Decides They Need Not Go to Jail for Contempt—Judge Hanecy’s Comment. CHICAGO, Dec. 7.—Andrew M. Lawrence, managing editor of Hearst's Chicago Amer- dcan, and H. 8. Canfield, a reporter, who were sentenced recently by Judge Hancey to 49 and 30 days, respectively, in the coun- ty jail for contempt of court, were dis- charged from custody by Judge Dunne to- day. in granting a writ of habeas corpus to the relators the court said that the case hing«d on whether the case on which the Chicago American commented had been disposed of by Judge ent or was still pending. Judge Dunne held that the case tn ques- tion had heen finally disposed of by Judge Hanecy when he gave his decision from the bench. The fact that the clerk had not entered the order when the comment on ne decision was printed and puwBlished, there- fore, does not show that the case was still pending. The act of entering the order on the record was merely a ministerial act, Judge Dunne said. — Following is Judge Hanecy'’s comment on Judge Dunne’s decision: “Judge Dunne had the power to so de- cide, but he did not heve the right. Any judge has the power to let every prisoner out of t penitentiary, but they have not the . righ ;, nor does anybody expect that they will.” TWO MORE CONVICTS TAKEN.

Prospects -|had been bright chough the day before, and he had left home for the day’s work with a. feeling of content, looking for- ward in pleasure to the giit-giving of the morrow. But as he was on his way back in the evening, laden with his share of the mysterious bundles that are always seen om Christmas Eve, he be- came suddenly weak. Fierce pains shot through his head: and botly and he be- came so dizzy that he was hardly able to make his way home. He was confined to the bed and the happiness of that Christmas wag. destroyed for him and for his family > ARG Rete bag ti ne aes * A big gray cat which roamed the alleys and sheds of St. Louls, unclaimed and un- honored, is the cause of an investigation by | Prof. Francis Cook, principal of the Crow School, to determine who is responsible for the injuries leading to its death. To the rising generation’in the vicinity jof Channing and Bell avenues the case of particular concern. Twelve boys are under suspicion. If it is found that any are pupils of the Crow School they will be summarily dealth with, Prof. Cook says. The Woman's Humane Society prompted the investigation. W. A. Barada, agent.ot the sociéty, reported to Mr. Cook Friday that he found a cat lying in the alley, back of the Crow School, unable to move. The cat's right leg, Mr. Barada averred, was broken and his tail was twisted out of shape. There were other signs of physical damage. According to Mr. Barada, the cat was tossed about on a shovel by a crowd ot small boys who had found it in the school yard. They boys said that they removed the cat, from the yafd because they were ordered to | do so by the school janitor, Thomas Hooli- han, itnesses aver that after the boys got to the sidewalk with their maimed bur- den they attempted to push it into a street sewer. A passer-by interfered and called the attention of the Humane Society to the case. The cat was shot. Prof. Gook said: “It has been reported to me that the cat was ill-treated in the presence of Janitor Hoolihan. If such is found to be true, the janitor is liable to suspension. But I have known Mr. Hooll- han for several years and I cannot con- ceive that he would be guilty of brutsity to any animal. He has cats at the, school, which he treats with the greatest consider- ation. Personally I knew him. to be very kind, and while the boys may have been implicated I cannot believe that the janitor was a party to the alleged cruelty which the Humane Society officers say was in- flicted upon the cat. If any of my pupils are mixed up in the case they must stand the 5 ore Mr. Hoolihan made this statement to the Post-Dispatch: “Thursday afternoon about recess time I found a stray cat in the yard. I had heard that one of the boys brought it and I toiu his teacher, who ordered him to take the oat back where he got it. “The boys borrowed a shovel from me and lifted the cat onto it.

I suppose. they smelled food inside and wanted it. I was afraid to make a noise to drive them away because I did not want any of the sailors to hear me and drag me out.

Coffee is a secretive worker, and through the nervous system affects dif- ferent parts of the body in different people, . A young married woman, Mrs. T. L.

Some- one told me that coffee sometimes af- fected the eyes. I at once decided to quit it and see if I would be benefited, but I must have something to take the place of coffee, for I wanted to modify as-much a8 possible the sacrifice of giv- ing it up. “So 1 decided to try Postum for my- self. When it came I made it strictly according to directions and was wonder- fully surprised and pleased with it. Hus- band says that my Postum is very dif- ferent, indeed, from that he once drank at a friend’s table. “T frankly own that I like Postum better than I ever liked coffee. ~It has a rich body to it that coffee lacks, I boil it longer than twenty minutes and it improves it. Perhaps it requires long- er boiling in the high altitudes. I thin it does. “For three months now I have been using Postum and have been wonder- fully benefited. My eyes vo longer pain me, and-afte strong as they ever were. My complexion, instead of being sallow as formerly, is clear and rosy. I know to a certainty that my improvement has been caused by leaving off coffee and using Postum, for that is absolutely the only change I have made, and I have} taken no medicine.

Martin Duffy, who had an easy time of it in his match with Jimmy Barry in this city some time ago, advanced another step toward the light-weight championship by his recent victory over Otto Sieloff at Osh- kosh, Wis. The milling was only slightly in favor of Duffy up to the sixth round, when he reached his man hard several times. In the seventh Duffy knocked Sieloff down several times and repeated the dose in the last. Duffy did not put his man out in the eigth, the limit, but was an easy victor on points.

Do the wagonmakers in the Reichstag have no wheels, and are their auditors never tired? A correspondent calls attention ‘to the overcrowded street cars and demands legislation to prevent the evil. Overcrowding causes conductors and passengers to lose their tempers, result- ing in quarrels and assaults. It is one of the chief causes of filthy cars. It is unhealthy and debasing. And it prevents mo- tormen from promptly stopping ‘cars in case of accident. The municipal authorities have no more pressing duty than that of putting @ stop to this barbarous condition. = = UNCLE SAM AS POLICEMAN. Lieut. Hobson's extension of the Monroe doctrine so as to cover the whole world and establish an American protectorate over the nations is called by its author Americanism, but, if honor is to be conferred where it is due, it should be denominated the Hob- doctrine. e gallant sailor is young and ardent. Therefore it seems to him a slight task for Uncle Sam to set up as a world policeman whose duty it shal] be to keep the peace. ‘Perhaps tt would, but is it the first duty of America t6 "po lice the earth? In the first place, it would cost an immense sum im money. Lieut. Hobson thinks the cost per capita would be trifling. So it would, but that logic would justify expenditures for anything and everything. The per capita argument hasn’t much real force. When the young hero gathers more years he will see this himself. But the real] argument against this splendid scheme of police- manization is that we have enough to do minding our own business and can't spare the time necessary to teach other folks how to be good. What with trusts and tariffs and transporta- tion and irrigation and education and currency and socialism and anarchism and all of the other formidable questions pressing for attention, we really can't look after the naughty nations on the other side of the earth. Lieut. Hobson is a brave young man. Moreover, he is a skilled naval constructo:. In all respects he is a credit to his profes- gion. But a man who risks his life in most perilous adventures and builds the beSt battleships in the world is not therefore a wise statesman. He will be older by and by. But, while it's hardly possible for the United States to police the earth just now, we can do something toward keeping the peace—we can get a good example. i i ‘The citizen who buys his Christmas gifts early and mails or ex- Presses them early is thoughtful and humane. He helps to save @ great deal of trouble. = = —_— EDUCATION IN THE SOUTH. ‘That a serious attempt is making in the South to settle the race question in the only way it can be settled+by education—is gphown by the annual report of the superintendents of education of Mississippi. The number of pupils enrolled during the year was 387,488, as against 359,546 two years ago Of these 179,142 were whites and 208,346 blacks, an increase of 11,964 white pupils and 15,978 negroes. The negroes form 59.1 per cent of the population of the State, go that they are proportionately fairly represented. But it is observed that an average of 159,493 pupils do not attend regularly, and the black children do not remain in school for any length of time. . The situation is full of difficulty and patience is needed to overcome the obstacles to enlargement. But at least the Southern States are trying to work out the problem and no honest effort will be altogether in vain. The holiday Wooks have an abundance of war stories. We shall mever be done teaching bloodshed. == _-_ = i TRAINING THE BODY. “Young Corbett’s’’ lessons in boxing, published daily in the Post-Dispatch, are designed to teach boys how to get strong, to keep their health by exercise and train the eyes, hands, feet— "- ail the mental and physical faculties until they are alert, respon- _ give, always ready for service. ) °* Whe featherweight champion discourses eloquently of the de- > Nights of walking and running (‘‘the two best exercises under the hi eAAg gun’), of breathing and all sorts of gymnastics, from turning - gomersaults to punching a bag and a solar plexus. % @tate in London ‘Boys and young men who study these lessons intelligently will wnderstand that they are not for the purpose of encouraging zilism or fostering a fighting spirit.

Two fatal wrecks have resulted within a week because en gineers on moving trains appear to have no exact means of dis- covering whether a train is standing on a siding or coming “end on.” The headlight is no guide, especially the electric headlight. which can be seen several miles away and simply daz- zles the eyes. As long as railways must have sidings to allow trains to get past each other, prudence would suggest that special signals be devised to inform the trainmen on the train which is to pass, that the train to be passed is actually on the siding. Immediately a train enters a siding these special signals, con- sisting of white or colored lights by night and appropriate sig- nails by day, should be displayed. It is true that the switch has its signal color or light. But it is usually down near the ground and the headlight of a train nearby may render it practically invisible at a distance, while the headlight itself glares without | giving any exact warning. European and some eastern railways use semaphore signals and lamps, set up on high poles-or signal towers, at all sidings. These signals and lamps are visible much further than the low switch signal which is the only reliance on most western rail- ways. 4 This is a matter of such importance that State Legislatures should attend to it without delay. Faulty signals are deadiy, and no railway company shoulc depend on them. Railroad legislation in Michigan has given a passenger rate of 2 cents a mile on the Michigan Central and all other roads of the like earning capacity. Is the free pass losing its grip on Michigan statesmen? : = * rw HASTEN FENDER LEGISLATION. What the long delay in fender legislation means for St. Louls is shown by the frightful death of the man supposed to be M, McTierney of Milwaukee, who was cut to pieces Friday morning, under a Taylor avenue car equipped with a worthless fender. Since the Post-Dispatch began to urge that a new fender law be passed which would enable the Board of Public Improv> ments to undo the error of its predecessor in the selection of fenders, several persons have been maimed and several others have lost their lives through being dragged under worthless fenders. ; That members of the city law-making body should hinder the passage of a new fender law, on factional or political grounds, while this slaughter was going on, is incomprehensible to the average citizen. It betrayed gross disregard of public interests. But as a new spirit seems to have arisen in the Assembly, we may hope that the needed law will be put through at the earliest possible moment. Every delegate and every councilman should determine that he will do all that lies in his power to make the streets reasonably safe by compelling the street railway corpora- tions to put life-saving fenders on the cars. , Ever since our invasion of the Philippines the South American republics have been suspicious of the expansion policy of the United States, feeling that their turn might come next in our absorption of territory. The declaration of President Roosevelt in favor of the independence of Cuba ‘has, therefore, reassured the American republics.. It has also pleased all Americans who think it would be disgraceful if. we were not to fulfill our prom- ises. = = The fact that a dentist in Illinois attempted suicide because $3000 was a sum not sufficient to warrant him in the expense of becoming a married man may suggest that possibly Ameri- cans have too many wants when they enter upon matrimony.

NORFOLK, Va., Dec. 7.—“I know Ella Cropsey to be alive and well.”’ This was the statement made by Chief of Police M. J. Vellines of this city. The officer is thoroughly convinced of the truth of his declaration. He declares he has no doubt that he has located the missing girl. He refuses, however, to give any informa- tion regarding her whereabouts. It is be- lieved that while the chief has had know!l- edge of the girl’s movements for several days past, he is moved today to give it out for the first time by the feeling against Wilcox, whom the girl herself has shown no inclination to exonerate. Capt. Vellines said today that he had sent a detective to Elizabeth City and that the report of this man, just received,, com- ag the chain of evidence substantiating s clew to Miss Cropsey’s whereabouts. The missing girl, he said, came to Norfolk Friday ites Nov. 22, arriving over the Seaboard Air Line. She afterwards went beyond this city. When she landed in Nor- folk she was unaccompanied by any com- panion. It is not known to the - ties if anyone joined her Mere. To HOW TO BE.... Well Dressed Elsie DeWolfe, Best Dressed Actress in America, Advises the Girl Who Is Going on the Stage What to Wear. V. The Girl Who Is Going Upon the Stage. Where she comes to.the city to try to gO on the stage, a girl needs practically two gowns. e One gown should be for rehearsal—some- thing for wear on the street and in cars and on the dusty stage and waiting in draughty flies. And the other gown should be a house g°own—something comfortable and of course loose—that she can wear when she is study- ing. For I assume that those two occupa- tions are all in thé’ World she will have to do excepting to see all the new plays put on while she is here. For that she will need the inevitable silk waist. But teas and receptions and even supper parties are cut from the day’s program of the girl student. She is here to work from morning till night, and therefore the clothes she needs will be working clothes. Her gown for rehearsal—provided she is fortunate enough to have parsing to re- hearse—should be a repetition of the busi- ness am 3 gown, excepting that the skirt should be, if anything, a trifle shorter. for she will see more dust than the woman in an office or a shop, and she must be dressed for it, The Simpler the Better. Her short skirt should be quite plain, therefore, and simply a straight skirt with the right flare, and a warm coat are what she needs. The coats for street skirts are very pretty cut below the waist, though certain figures cannot take them, as a sin- Sie fitting wiil show. For waists she will wear plain shirt- waists—washable waists, if possible; if not, dark flannel waists, then simpiy made ones. Her waists and collars wili follow those Suggested for the business woman. or this word of advice I want to’give to all alike: Collarettes, chiffon bows, mous- seline ties and tulle stocks are all abomina- tions. They are not for shirtwaist wear in the first place, and in the second, they are not presentabie for more than one wearing. They are the most expensive acquisitions of one's toilet. House gowns !n general I am going to discuss tomorrow in the wardrobe of the woman who stays at home, but I have one pretty one in mind that is especially adapt- ed to a giri who is spending a iong after- noon in her room, studying. It is made of China silk, which is one of the prettiest and longest enduring of ma- terials for house Wear, and which does not easily wrinkle. It was black, and the girl who wore it had made it herself, and it was exceedingly pretty. it was cut with a tucked bolerv, the edge quite untrimmed, and from be- neath this fell the skirt, not cut very full, but made very long.- The bolero was fas- tened in front under a knot of the silk without ends—since the ends need constant pressing out. , There was no coll&r, and the sleeves were logse, but net flowing, and therefore not in the way. The gown was extremely cheap, and it was worn all year by the girl who made it. It was unlined; but any house gown should be that for comfort. The hat of one girl I know, who is a Stage student, has been a bit more expen- sive than it perhaps ought to have been, but it is the only one she has, and she is doubtles wearing it to the theater. How She Made a Pretty Hat. It is of rather a soft gray felt, and tips a bit over her eyes, and it is wound wita a soft silk scarf, like so many of the win- ter hats.

This delightful autobiography of a man who has proved his manhood by the sever- est tests, is the simple, ingenuous record of a great life. Wholesome, fresh, transpar- ently sincere, it is a reflection too clear to be questioned of a character which throve under difficulties and asserted itself tri- umphantly against the conspiracy of cir- cumstances. In 1870 Jacob Riis, a ‘‘duly enrolled car- penter of the guild of Copenhagen,” left his native land to get away from Eliza- beth, who had refused him, much against her own heart. Armed with her picture and a lock of ner hair, he set sail and land- ed at Castle Garden on Whitsunday, 1870 Then his making began. “T had a pair of strong hands,’’ writes Mr. Riis, “and stubbornness enough for two;alsoa strong belief that in a free coun- try, free from the dominion of custom of caste, as well as of men, things would somehow come right in the end, and a man et shaken into the corner where he be- onged if he took a hand in the game. 1 think I was right in that. lf it took a lot of shaking to get me where I belonged, ihat was just what I needed. ven m mother admits that now. To tell the truth, Il was tired of hammer and saw. They wer indissolubly bound up with my dreams o Elisabeth, that were now gone to smash. Therefore I hated them. And straightway, remembering that the day*‘was her birth- day, and accepting the fact as a good omen, 1 rebuilt my air casties and resolved to try on a new tack. So irrational is human nature at 21, when in love. And isn't it good that it is?” He went back for her six years later. Meanwhile he worked at odd jobs. He was a handy youth and could do almost anything. But for a long time grub care hard and his stomach was not often -@s, quiet as his conscience. Besides, winter came on and the linen duster was not a good protection. But Jacob had a warm, strong heart and forced his way forward. He never lost courage. He starved in the streets, slept in police sé#ations, consortéed with tramps and worse, took mental! notes of police abuses, which he helped to cor- rect 25 years later, worked in a brick yard, the Streets of Florence—Their Faces Mark Them as Strangers in Tuscany. From ‘‘The Destiny of Doris.’’—Juwlius Chambers By Oourtesy of Continental Publishing Co., in a lumber camp—anything which would bring him an honest dime. Jacob “huis never begged, not even for work. But it any man needed the services of a strong- limbed youth he was ready to SWap ser- viee for cash, or a dinner. Then he became a reporter and his life work began. Jacob Riis is still a reporter. He says he will always be a reporter. But it is surprising what a number of things a reporter can do in the line of his oh he Jacob Riis is ore of the foremost public men in the country—largely because he seized all the opportunities of his profes- sion and made it serve others rather than himself.

Zorzy, called Ballarm, the dancer from a tragic incident in his career, is a Dalma- tion waif befriended by Angelo Beroviero, the greatest of the glassblowers. It is un- lawful for an alien to learn the secrets of the trade, but Zorzi is observant and quick, and absorbs a knowledge he may not re- ceive by instruction. He is an artist, thinks for himself, and slowly becomes indispen- sable to his master.

~TAANTS PAY FOR HGS AAD KE MES. HUTT SUES HER FORMER VALUE OF EACH CARESS $1000 Special to the Post-Dispatch. NEW YORK, Dec. 7.—‘‘To one hug, $1000: to one kiss, $1000. Total, $2000."’ Such is the itemized bill which Dora Hutt, comely, young, the wife of Valentine Hutt, has furnished to the court in her sult against Louls Zimmerman, a wealthy con- tractor of Fifth avenue, jwho was formerly her employer. The bill in question, Mrs. Hutt says, em- braces not only the injury that was done to her character, but her physical suffering in having been forced to give to Zimmer- man those .privileges, which, up to that time, h been reserved exclusively for her husband. Mrs. Hutt In her complaint dilates upon her injuries, both to mind and body, which, she alleges, were the result of her employ- er’s ardent greeting and as a result of it and the brooding over her wrongs, she says, she fell ill on Sept. 19 and remained so until November. The hug represents one action for $1000 and the kiss another for the same amount. os Mr. Zimmerman puts in a general denial and declines to pay for the hug and the kiss. A jury in the city court will be called en to pass upon Mrs. Hutt’s claims, and if they are sustained to assess the value of - . 42s A Pe soe peter er A ek -% ; _ Superlative in strength and purity Improves the flavor and adds to the healthiginess of the food.

Oh, don’t you remember poor Billy, Ben Bolt, Harry Ubben of 1228 Wright street and Our goat with the whiskers so gray? John Heil of 2007 Natural Bridge road were discharged in the Dayton Street Police Court Friday by Judge Wizlizenus. They had been arraigned with George T. Wiebe of 2527 Newhouse avenue on charges of disturbing the peace. Wiebe was also dischargea. In discharging Ubben and Heil, who are youths of 20 ana 19 respectively, the court remarked that the evidence clearly showed that they had made no attempt to rob Wiebe or to shoot Policeman Dee, the charges on which they had been arrested carly Thursday morning by Policemen Mc- qui] Railroad.

A quarrel between the inventors of rival smoke consumers was taken before Judge Sidener of the City Hall Police Court Sat- urday morning. James L. Johnson, the defendant, lives at 2020 Wash street,’ and sells a smoke- consuming device which, he says, is one of the oldest on the market. C. M. Barnard of 4003 Page avenue, the complaining witness, is engineér in the Leighton building, 803 Washington avenue. Mr. Barnard recently equipped the smoke- stack at the Leighton building with a smoke consumer, and this was the cause They've taken the cans from the alleys and dumps, In the big bazar at the church, Ben Bolt, They are selling the cans at a dollar apiece, nuisances conveniences, will be offered for sale by the Ladies’ Aid.

The old church, a low, shed-liké structure at Ridge and Blackstone avenues, is now the. scene of frequent gatherings. of the ma- trons and maids of the congregation. Each brings as a daily contribution a basket of tin cans, gleaned from the alleys and foot- paths of the neighborhood. Mrs. E. Lanphear of 1374 Temple place is the ohana sat of the pian for utilizing the cans. Under her direction the rough edges of the cans are disappearing and the shin- ing cylinders are being refashioned and adorned. From a former tomato receptacle, which looked, when brought into the church, as though it had seen service in the possession of some Roving Raggles,. has been made a box for bachelor’s buttons, decorated with |: the motto: ‘A stitch in time saves nine.”’ A smaller and more dainty baking pow- der can, with a cover, has been fashioned ir.to a tidy thimble holder, handsomely be- ribboned. Salt and pepper shakers and sugar boxes, with only their general shape to suggest their humble origin, are displayed. These, too, are converted cans. The can emporium is not confined to dec- orated souvenirs or household ‘utensils.

Johnson visited the building and asked Barnard to explain the difference betweeti the device which he had placed in use — that to which he claimed the exclusive r t. he Preenonrneg | incidents of the visit were in controversy in court. Barnard said that Johnson had accused him of appropriating his ideas, and had displayed a revolver. He then drove his visitor out, he said, and pursued him as far as the corner of Sev- enth and Sst. Charles streets, where he caused his arrest. Johnson said that he had accused Bar- nard of infringing on his patent, but de- nied that he had drawn a revolver. “I don’t think, under the circumstances, it would be right to punish a man who is furnishing the community with smoke con- sumers,’’: said Judge Sidener, as he en- tered a discharge against the defendant's name.

Ubben, a well- known and hi hly esteemed business man of North St. Louis, a letter stating that he had made no attempt to shoot the po- liceman or to rob AViebe. The testimony of the three defendants was to the effect that they had met late Wednesday night in a saloon on Natural Bridge road and that they had quarreled ever a religious subject. After leaving the saloon they met on Thompson avenue near Harper street and quarreled again. Wiebe, the boys declared, struck one of them, and, being much larger ee either of them, they attacked him to- gether. Wiebe Admits He Cried for Help. Wiebe admitted on the &tand that he cried for help at this juncture. olice- man Dee was in the vicinity a towards the trio on heartgg Wiebe's* ; Boy-like, Ubben and Heli ran.
