Parents Happy Over Union ot Young Couple and Had Fitted Up Their Home. Mrs. Leonore Cox, left with a baby boy, two months old, is grieving over the inexplicable absence of her young ijusband, Rhodes H. Cox Jr., who dis- appeared mysteriously from their home at 1245 North Euclid avenue, Oct. 26. ‘Despite continuous search on the part of her and her husband's parents, and a large number of the friends of both, to trace of the missing young man has ‘been found. Only two weeks of their wedded life had been spent in their flat when Mr. Cox left without explanation, on his part or any cause that his parents or his wife’s relatives are able to deter- mine. . Mrs. Cox is now at the home of — father, John C, Craib of 5130 Morgan /street. ' Eloped To St. Charles. The strange disappearance of Mr. Cox is the latest development in a romance that was the subject of much congratu- lation when the first chapter was writ. ten a year ago. Mr. Cox, who is but 23 years old, and his wife, then Miss Lenore Craib, had been sweethearts for a year, when, in December 190, they eloped to S§8t. Charles, Mo., and were married by the Rev. Mr. Bby. There had been no objection on the part of the young couple’s parents, and the trip to Gretna Green was thought to be the desire to avoid the formali- ties of the wedding that had been planned. When they returned to St. Louis and announced thejr marriage, Mr. and M?s, e center of a circle of young married people and entertained and received entertainment almost con- tinously for a month. Last month his parents and Mr. Craib rented and (furnished a flat for the young couple. They had been comfortably installed only two weeks when Mr. Cox left one morning, ‘with the announcement that he would return as usual after work. That was the last his wife has seen of him and his parents are equally in the dark as to his whereabouts. Rhodes H. Cox Sr., of the Ely & Walker Dry Goods Co., said that he was unable to suggest any reason for his son's absence. . “I have not heard from him,” said diligent inqu'ry I cannot find any one who has had any word from him or to whom he ever intimated that he in- ‘tended leaving.

aa “T have never heard him mention any disagreenaent at home, and he and his wife when they visited us frequently very happy. & Took His Sentence.

Folled in an attempt yesterday to surprise and capture Frank Ball, slay- er of Jack Bolen, and his band of out- laws éntrenched in the ruin of an old moonshine distillery on the mountain south of town by’ the accidental dis-~ charge of a militiaman’s gun, the com- pany of military under Capt, Albrecht gave unequal battle to the feudists and retreated into town. They lost two men wounded and two are missing. Shelby Ball, brother of the outlaw, was severely wounded, and two other mountaineers were seen to fall, but were carried away by their comrades. The mountaineers chased the militia almost to the town limits. Capt. Albrecht is reorganizing his force and will make another attempt to capture the outlaws, who number be- tween 45 and 65, He is aided by the Law and Order League, which has received $2000 to prosecute the efforts to capture Ball. — Three Outlaws Fall. Except Shelby Bill, it is not known whether any of the outlaws were wounded, though two soldiers say they saw three men fall. The attacking par- ty of soldiers did not make a direct charge, but sought to take the enemy in the flank, but failed owing to the accidental discharge of a gun, which gave warning of their approach. It iss said the militiaman whose gun went off had an attack of buck ague, which caused the accident. As planned by Capt. Albrecht, about tweniy soldiers left the city in a. di- rection almost opposite that of the mountain. Arriving at the base, they deployed into line, halted, apparently waiting reinforcements. They kept this position for nearly an hour, and then from far ,.up the mountain side came the quick, sharp bark of a rifle, then another, and a third, and then a per- fect fusillade. The advancing militia had been dis- covered and from the doors and win- dows of an old house, an illicit distil- lery, the fire of the outlaws poured. They were quick to discover the ene- my, and from their point of vantage delivered so hot a fire that no soldier could advance up either of the two ra- vines leading to the summit of the hilL A retreat was finally ordered. and down the mountain side the soldiers picked their way, firlnme as they re- treated from boulder to tree, and from tree to boulder, regular guerrilla style. The scene fs described as dramatic in the extreme, and it is certainly with- out parallel In the history of Kentuckys. Frank RBall’s Crime. The crime for which Frank Ball is wanted is the murder of Jack Bolen, a barber, an inoffensive man, but with a number of friends. But Ball had many friends, he was strong politically and resented any at- tempt to arrest him. The Sheriff, Tyrus Howard, ts his friend. and several times _G. W. Albrecht,

‘armed friends have come into town and i defied anyone to make an arrest. Ball came to this section some years} ginija. They have been known as bold, men. They did about as the | dgring and no one interfered. a The killing of Bolen grew out of a po- ve t Governor Appealed To for Aid and Rapid the Outlaw Leader’s Brother. — Another battle with Frank Ball and his 40 mountain bandits was fought this wR ses and two guards were probably fatally wounded. / The troops were repulsed, the bandits firing from behind rocks and boulders on mountain side, driving the guards before them. All wires, save a telephone wire to Knoxville, have been cut by the Ball gang. Gov. Beckham has been called upon for aid, and State troops, armed with rapid fire guns, will probably be sent. It was a typical battle fought on the mountain wae. attacked the Ball house from all sides. The soldiers were determined to capture the bandits, but the rain in numbers to cope with the bandits.

Hildebrand, chairman of the City ‘Central Committee of the Socialist par- ty, Says that socialists have been noti- fied that the leaders of the revolution are especially in need of good revolvers *of modern make and large caliber, and that at leaS8t a p ortion of the fund now ,, being raised in St. Louis will be used to ‘purchase these weapons. He says that the money will not be spent here, but “that it will be sent to’ Dr. Ingermann, a prominent New York Socialist, and forwarded by him to the Revolutionary Committee which has its headquarters at Geneva, Switzerland. All of the local socialists who are able to do so are expected to contribute, but the appeal for aid will not be confined * to members of the party. The lists will be generally circulated, and it is be- _leved that many citizens who have no -courecticn with the party will aid the « movement. ’ The funds will be accounted for by Ott» Gaemerer, secretary of the §So- cilalist Party, -whose office .is at 324 Chestnut street. ' At a meeting of socialists Sunday night the movement to raise money for the Russian revolutionists was unani- *mously indorsed, and many of the 150 persons present made contributions. Resolutions were adopted, and a - strong appeal was framed to be pre- _seuted to the citizens of St. Louis along with ance. It is believed that many St. Louis Jews will contribute to the fund. ‘While there are in St. Louis thousands of Jews who have come to look upon America as their own country, nearly all of them have ties of kinship which bind them to Russia, and it is said that many of them would return if conditions in the land of the Czar vere so altered, through revolution or Otherwise, that they could safely do Girl Goes Back Home.

STATEMENT Nays Old Lady Took Important Papers When She Dis- | appeared. By Leased Wire From the New York Bureau of the Post-Dispatch. NEW YORK, Nov. 6—For the first tine since the tragic death of old Mns. Todd, her French maid, arie Goddard, made a statement today. It brought to light one. important fact—that Mrs. Todd, before leaving home, the day of her death, took a package of important private papers from a cabinet and placid them in her satchel. That satchel wids found beside the body on the Reading tracks in Philadelphia, but the papers were not in it. . Another important fact is that a let- ter received by Mrs. Todd a few days before her death from some unknown person in Bridgesburg, Pa., was found in her room a few days ago by one of the detectives now in possession of Ho- tel Von Hoffman. This letter may con- tain a clitw to the mystery Todd’s trip to Philadelphia Just be- fore her departure for Philadelphia she told Mrs. Knight that the private busi- ness which took her away was not in Ph. ladelphia, but in Bridgesburg. No one has: been able to discover that Mrs. Todd knew anyone living or doing business in Bridgesburg, which is prac- tically a suburb of Philadelphia. To Call on Jerome, Formal demand will be made today upon District Attorney Jerome and Po- lice Commissioner McAdoo for afa in solving the sinister mystery which sur- rounds the death of the wealthy and eccentric Mrs. Margaretta Todd. Coroner Scholer no longer attempts to conceal his belief that Mrs. Todd was lured to Philadelphia and there murdered. But Coroner Scholer did not even dare order an analysis of the dead woman’s stomach, because Philadelphia flatly refuses to pay the bill, while New York County cannot, under the law. — : It is probable, however, that this fi- nancial obstacle will be removed at a conference planned for today between Coroner Scholer and Mr. Sinclair Tou- sey, the authorized representative of Mrs. Todd’s daughter, who will permit no quesiion of expense to block the in- vestigation. Lockwood Refuses to Talk. Ingersoll Lockwood, the old lawyer, said by Manager Ratcliffe of the Ste- phen Merritt Burial Co, to have had Mrs. Todd's stolen will in his possession, and who is the central figure in this mystery, would make no statement. But his lawyer announced a strenuogs pro- gram for today. ACQUAINTED BUT HOUR. Wife Gets Divorce After 15 Days’ Married Life, _ Judge Tayior in Sircuit Court Monda granted a divorce to Mrs. Emma Fieming in her suit against John H. Fleming and restored her maiden name, Schrader. The evidence was heard Oct. 98, having been continued from March, when the wife's testimony against her husband had been principally relative to the charge of drunkenness. She had lived with him but 15 days, however, and the court held that the drunkenness had not covered sufficient period to warrant divorce under the statutes. ‘ In the hearing last: week, the wife of- fered other evidence of indignities, Yhey were married, she said, Nov. 2, 1908, and separated Dec.

Cheered Hearst Seventeen Minues,t While the orchestra was playing in- side the garden shouts could be heard in the street. There was a commotion at the main door. The entire audience arose and saw Mr. Hearst enter, ac- companied by his wife. Then the real cheering began. He was.taken to a box near that of the other candidates. Most of the audience stood on their chairs. The women waved handker- chiefs, the men their hats. At the end of 10 minutes Mr. Hearst. went to the platform and stood there, pale but calm. He raised his arms and motioned for silence, but it was not until 17 min- utes had passed that he succeeded in quieting the audience. Then he spoke for five and one-half minutes in a high pitched, strained voice that enabled all to hear him.

And they generally do 60 for the same reason.” Gov. Folk, who, with Mrs. Folk,. was present, smiled expansively at this. Mr. Bitting took for his text Matthew XxX. 26-28, which insists on the virtue of humility. He said in part: “My friends, I hope that in this church no man is ever elected to office who seeks ‘t. It is the slave who becomes est

Socrates once said that he was the wisest man in all the world.

While the family was at dinner a porch climber entered the residence of P. E. Wilson, at 4410 West Pine boule- vard and stole valuable clothing be- longing to Mrs. Wilson at 6 p. m. Sun- day. Included in the burglar’s booty were several tailormade walking suits which Mrs. Wilson had purchased for use this winter, sume of which she had never worn. He took only the new and sty!- ish clothihg, which was in a chest, and did not touch other and older articles of apparel in a closet in the’same room. The family was not aware of the burglar’s presence until after dinner, when Mrs. Wilson went to the chest to get one of her walking skirts. She had been in the room just before dinner, and at that time the clothing was all there. The thiet climbed the plilars of the front porch and forcea open the window of Mrs. Whison’s bedroom. “The clothing taken was all mine,’ said Mrs. Wilson Monday. ‘‘We missed some of it last night, and when we in- vestigated further this morning we found that several articles which I had not at first missed had _ been - taken. The robbery must have occured while we were at dinner. We did not hear any noise.” Mr. Wilson is president of a lumber company whose offices are at Salisbury and Hal! streets. North Siders’ Meeting.

Dr. | Marks was speaking of and for the Grade Crossing Gommission, which purposes visiting nine cities

ad the roads fork, if the Municipal Assembly will sen up on $2000. . The proposed trip is not to be confounded with a junket. A successful junket cannot be pulled off with economy. Dr. Marks knows this and has re- assured us. «We shall visit the cities in the most economical Way,” he says; “that is,” he says, “in rotation.” 4 Those unpracticed in economy who may be puzzled : arding the method of saving by rotation, we re- by to the dictionary. To be entirely frank, we ad to look it up ourselves. It is there all right; e doctor was’ not misleading us. “Rotation—The act of rotating or turning, as a rheel or a solid body on its axis.” ' After strenuous study we have decided that the ecret lies in the world “solid.” It is well known ce: most legislative bodies sent on tours are hol- jew. As nature abhors a vacuum, these hollow yodies have to be filled up. The process of filling nstitutes a junket. A solid body does not need filling. Therefore the proposed trip cannot be a junket. This seems plain. : ‘Having reached this satisfactory conclusion, we were jarred into doubt by a second definition: “Any . yeturn or succession of a series.” Could Dr. Marks have known this when he spoke of economy. by ro- tation? A series is quite sufficient for most men. The average man feels that he should not go be- yond one or two. Surely even a Councilman or Delegate could not take more than a series and ex- pect to tell with certainty which was the grade and which the crossing. And “a return or succession of a series” would make any T rail look like the letter S. Besides, what becomes of the economy? * No, Dr. Marks, must have had in mind the solid body. Probably he did not read as far as the second dpfinition. And if he didn’t, it is certain that he did not see the third one: , “Rotation in office—The practice of changing offi- ers at frequent intervals.” Economy by this form f rotation has been demonstrated. /While firm in his determination that the trip shall be ‘made economically, Dr. Marks does not deceive himself with the belief that this can be done with- out sacrifice. He says, simply but plainly, that the tour will be no pleasure excursion. “Delegate Nash _-and myself,” says Dr. Marks, “have drawn up a _ rough itinerary.” ‘If Belisarius, the General, begged on the streets, why should not the “descendants of Napoleon’s marshals” write continually to Secretary Charles J. Bonaparte in an effort to “pull his leg’?

>, A CHILDREN AFRAID OF POLICEMEN. In the statement of Mrs, Jane Fortner in Satur- day’s Post-Dispatch, accusing Policeman Bridwell of ki¢king her 8-year-old boy, a highly significant pas- sage accurs. “A child of his age is naturally afraid of a police- man.” This she says to explain why the boy ran away when he saw the officer coming. 4 _ Why are children naturally afraid of a police- man? He is employed to protect them and should be their friend. Why look upon him as an enemy to be feared and run away when he comes in sight? The answer ean be found in the mumerous cases of assault and battery, ruffianly treatment of help- less women andf brutal conduct generally in which policemen have figured of late. Such men must be expelled from the corps which , _they disgrace. If the elimination is thorough and _ the force intelligently organized and directed, it will son become natural for children to like the blue coats and be glad to see them coming. _

Mackay of Boston, “always to play the game with play one’s best. — Of course, of course—and there's just a dash of

mulus. The New Woman loves ¢.can manage clubs and vote at the evils fully as well, if not a bit better, than mere man. Jn reality, the opportunity for a chance to erow over the one-time lords of creation. is largely at the bottom of her ambitions in these fields—and why shouldn’t the Athletic Girl be similarly im- pelled? She’s but a woman, for all her muscle. It’s time for man to look out for himself. If the Athletic Girl begins to camp on his trail she’ll proba- bly not stop this sidé of the prize ring. And what would be more terrible than a woman who knows the secret of the knockout blow on the point of the jaw and possesses the strength, skill and willingness to deliver the goods? 6 If President Stewart of the Board of Police Com- missioners puts into practice the excellent theory ‘f action in cases wherein policemen are charged with offenses against citizens which he outlined in the Post-Dispatch, he will accomplish a great reform. Mr. Stewart’s view of the attitude of the authori- ties towards police charges is directly opposed to the present practice and the Chief’s view. The two should be harmonized.

complained of a congestion of population, The Salvation Army proposes to relieve this by sending 20,000 carefully selected families to Can- ada and Australia, One of Mr. Cham- berlain’s followers is quoted as follows: “There is Immediately a protest comes. something humiliating in the bare suggestion that, for the ‘solution of any problem, the richest coun- try in Europe should have no alternative to send- ing abroad the best and choicest of its workers.” It was, moreover, alleged that English agricul- ture was notoriously in decay and needed all the good workers that could be obtained. Why send the best to Canada when they were needed at home? The answer came from a benevolent peer, who offered Gen. Booth 300 acres. But he has no imi- tators. It is 2 curious muddle. On the one hand, there is acknowledged over-population, on the other the decay of agriculture for want of population. Who will solve the contradiction?

To the Editor of the Post-Dispatca, Huve often wondered why the music-loving people of the city had not taken steps to keep the big or- gan in Festival Hall here. The large auditorium scheme is a good idea; we would then be equipped for the entertainment of the grandest musical gath- erings in the country and wouid be in a position to hear the greatest masters of the world at intervals. The old Mercantile Library Building contained a large concert hall, with a pipe organ, and that was 30 years ago, when Grand avenue was as far as the city extended and the population was scarcely half what it is now; then why shouldn’t we have an im- mense auditorium built in the new Carnegie Library, in which to accommodate that organ and have a place where we could have musical festivals on a gigantic scale.

Louis is hav- ing a harder time getting rid of his money than Sinbad the Sailor had in shaking off the Old Man of the Sea. In the first place, Mr. How did not want the old money. “I did not earn it,’ he said, ‘‘and therefore have no right to it.”. But having inherited it there was no way to get rid of it ex- cepting to give it away or litter up the streets with the stuff. But there was the trouble. Had he tried to throw it away, the police would have locked him up for observation as to his sanity; for it is a peculiar feature of our customs that, while a man is permitted to burn up as much ‘money as he may please in riotous living, the law wiil not permit him to throw it away bodily. Knowing this, Mr. Howe tried to give it away. Handing $2000 to a certain lo- cal charity organization, he said, ‘‘Well, thank goodness, I am rid of that much of my burden of wealth, anyway!” But it was not to be; for, much to his cha- grin, a committee called on Mr. How the other day and gave him every penny back. Some men are born with money, some achieve money and some get to be pres- idenis of life insurance companies, but Mr. How’s money was literally thrust upon him.

COACH WILBUR - OVER -STRENUOUS

Football Instructor Adhered to Rugged Code of Rugby Ethics Which Proved Too Much for Young Men-of the Cote Brilliante College. Football affairs at Christian Brothers’ College are betraying signs of unex- pected vitality under the young direc- tlon of Coach Emanuel Bernero, who succeeded Mr. Ralston T. Wilbur in command of thd squad last week. Fifty students turned out for practice on Saturday last under Mr. Bernero., It is said that 14 was the largest squad ‘Mr. Wilbur had out at any time. In fact C. B. C. did not have a scrimmage practice until Mr. Bernero assumed eharge, owing to lack of enough men to form two elevens. ‘It 1s whispered along Cote Brilliante wide that Mr. Wilbur was too. severe with the boys and that his rugged code of football ethics Was not to the taste of the faculty. Mr. Wilbur, it is charged, applied the methods of coaching in vogue on the big professional and college teams, which possess innumerable candidates ‘whose interest in football is monetary or very closely allied thereto. Paid players ‘and the “privileged’’ members of big college:teams will endure rigors of action and language to which the wery young, boys of a college, such as C. B. C. is, will not submit. ' For instance, it is said that the mother of one candidate for gridiron greatness complained to Mr. Wilbur that her boy had told her that he had been the sub- ject of some very pointed observations o* the coach. The lady requested Mr. Wilbur to be more considerate of the lad's feeling. To this, it is said, the strenuous and rugged coach repiied, gently, but firmly: ™""“My dear madam, you will greatly @blige me if you will take your precious boy home to his dolly. I have been cage agg i my time, tongue and tal- Ents in what, I now discover, was a thankless as well as a most hopeless fort to make a man out ot your lithk unny Locks.

Red Robert Says That, With Jeffries Out. He Is the Le- gitimate Champion. (BY ROBERT EDGREN.) Special io the Posi-vispatch. ' NEW YORK, Nov. 6—‘‘Do I mean business?’’ exclaimed Robert Fitzsim- mons when I met him at his apartment this morning. “The best proof in: the world is the fact that I closed up my show last week in Chicago. We were making $1200 a week clear. I wouldn't throw that up in the air if I didn’t raean business, would I? _ “Come out of doors. If I get to talk- ing about this in: the house I'll prob- ably be breaking the chairs. It makes me mad. ‘“‘Now I'l] tell you about it,”’ said Bob as we reached the sidewalk. . “A week ago a paper primied a story Saying that | was talking fight with O'Brien to advertise my show. I got that paper out in Chicago and it made me mad clear through. “‘*l'll show ‘em,’ I said. Then I went right in and told my manager to close up the show. They cant say I’m look- ing for advertising if 1 haven’t anything to advertise, can they? I’m the heavy- weight champion, if anyone should ask you. Jeff was, because he beat me, and with Jeff out of it,1 come in again. Jeff turned the title over to me, and I'm out to defend it against anybody who wiil fight me. “O'Brien gets the going to take him on now. start for the coast Monday. in plenty of time training. catch me out of shape by trick the way he did in Philadelphia. “Y Brien is a clever feliow, and he can fight all right, but 11) put him out. tes, 1 think he really believes he has a chance. I don’t see how he figures it. I'm a lot better than | was a year ago, and you can bet on it Jack O’Brien won't feel like any heavyweight cham- pion when I| get through witn him.’ Old Dr. Fitz Demonstrates, Here bob stopped me under the lamp- post and began to iliustrate. ° “O'Brien jabbed and cut me all up in the first three rounds at Fnhiladelphia, didn’t he? (Fitz jabs and 1 duck.) “Then I began ‘ooking ‘im in the body.”’ (Fitz lets go a solar-plexus punch.) : “Then I ’ook ’im on the jaw and he goes down.” (Fitz hooks and I get be- hind the lamppost.) 3 ‘Then knock ’m down again, and they cut the round ‘alf a minute short to save ‘im.’’ ‘I’m in this to gamble. O’Brien will have to fight 76-25 if he fights me. Let the winner have something for winning is what I say.”’ Then I asked Fitz the same old ques- tion we always ask, how he felt. Bab promptly replied: ‘‘Never better in my life. I’ve been taking great care of my- self for six months. I feel as if I could lick Jeffries.’’ Jimmy Coffroth, the San Francisco promoter, has come to New York to talk business with Fitz. ‘‘Jack’s a great business man,” sald Fitz, ‘‘but I’m not. I’m going to lick ‘im and I’m so sure of it that I'm will- ing to take my chance of getting the big end.. y F to the Philadelphia bout, O’Brien certainly had the best of the first three rounds. Fitz warmed up then, got his stride, and held Jack even in the fourth round. The last two were Fitz’s rounds beyond question, although it must not be forgotten that Jack was there, mix- ing it with him every moment. Most important is the fact that O’Brien was just as strong as Fitz at the finish. The question now is—can O’Brien kee out of Fitzsimmons’ way in a 20-roun battle long enough to peck and jab the vitality out of Fitz? If Fitz has gone back, Jack can do it; but if Fitz is the Fitz of old, he will surely win with a knockout. And just now the Grand Old Man is looking like the Fitz of old. DUST OF THE DIAMOND.

NEW ORLEANS, Nov. 6.—Unless the Western Jockey Club and the American Turf Association effect an amicable set- tlement of their troubles and avert the impending turf war, which is scheduled to begin in New Orleans when the Fair Grounds and City Park tracks be- gin their annual winter racing on Nov. 30, a bill will probably be introduced at the forthcoming session of the Legis- lature to prohibit horse racing in Lou- isiana. It is reported on reliable au- thority that Representative Hunsicke: a country legislator, who introduced the famous anti-poolroom bill two years me F: will lead the fight. eutenant-Governor Sanders prepared the anti-racing measure with the under- standing that if the turf war is not averted he will use his influénce to have the bill adopted.

Lave Cross captained’ the Athletics. No harder worker than the veteran ap- peared in thig city last season. Never- theless, there has been friction between ot Pe and Manager Mack of the Ath- etics. As a matter of fact, at least one Na- tional League club is negotiating to buy Cross’ release. Before he can be sold it will be necessary for all the American League clubs to walve claim to his services. Danny Hoffman stopped over in this city for several days last week on his way from Philadelphia to his home in Connecticut. He came principally to have a settlement with one of the Giants, who agreed to split up with him in the world’s series—even basis. It is now known that no less than 15 of the Giants agreed to split up with an equal number of the Philadelphians on the series, win or lose.

© * CODDING’S FOOTBALL TALK é How long, O, how long will it be before local football managers. will awaken to the fact that the sidelines should be kept clear of spectators dur- ing the game, and how long before they will take steps to accomplish this end? With the exception of the Washington- lilinois College game at the Stadium two weeks ago, there has not been a game in St. Louis this year at which the sidelines were not invaded.

Managers start trouble for themselves by admitting former football stars and | privileged members of the alumni to! the field. Others in the stands see | them and naturally believe they should enjoy the same privileges. Then the Spectators are allowed to jump into the field and surround the players during the intermission between the halves, and the damage is done; they are there to stay. This encroachment upon the field is | an annoyance to the spectator, who has | paid an admission with the understand- | ing that he is to see a football game, not a “mob scene;” it is a great hind- rance to the players and to the of ficials; and, while on the subject, we might also mention the poor newspaper man, who would far rather enjoy the game from the stands, but whose duties necessitate his presence as close to thé players as possible, in order to record eoch play. This work is not an after- noon’s frolic, even with the sidelines reasonably clear, but when one has to fight with several hundred sideline in- vaders in order to retain a point of vantage, and is then ‘forced to ex- plain every five minutes to a ‘‘guardian of the peace’’ that duty calls ‘you there, it is well, choose the word for yourself. There is no good excuse for permit- ting the practice. The Washington man- agement has the right idea in providing ere. to those entitled to the sideline privileges and keeping all others off. Let this plan be followed and perhaps we shall see more than 2000 people at a game one of these days.

New York, Chicago and Philadelphia will be the only cities asked to carry two clubs. This-at least is what some American or National De Quinceys have dreamt.

The re- markable endurance and pluck dis- played by the California boxer elicited the surprise, respect and commendation of the spectators, or to be in line let us make it the ‘‘audience.”’ When Britt was in St. Louis last week he was quoted as saying that he had the best of the fistic fest to the chance blow which tucked him to sleep. “I'll leave it to the pictures to prove it,’ said Mr. Britt to his journalistic friends. If we were Mr. Britt we would rather leave it to our dearest for, Mr. Billy Nolan, than to the veracious pic- tures, The kinetoscopic reproduction dem- onstrates but one thing. It is that from the very first blow of the very first round Britt was a beaten and badly beaten man. Nelson Lands First and Last. Nelson landed the first good blow and During one hour and five min- utes of fighting Britt was beating dou- ble time in retreat. Even his a ae Britt was breakin ground. Nelson never gave one foot o ground during the fight. Ever cool, steady, unrattled, accurate, kept boring in. Not rushing swinging wildly, but cautiously, care- fully, cleverly and steadily. Back, back, ever back, and away goes Britt. For- ward, forward, in, in, goes Nelson. In interviews, printed Jocally, Britt is quoted as saying that it was his fight up to the final punch! Mr. Britt must own a most convenient memory. He forgets the sixth, eighth, fourteenth and sixteenth rounds in par- ticular and avery round in general. Nelson looks like a winner all the way. Only once, for a moment, when he has Britt all but out in the sixtn round, does he display wildness. Then he does swing once vr twice. At all other times he is accurate to a degree and cool as ice. As far as cleverness goes, Britt is the showler boxer in a taking, meretricious fashion, just as the rouge on e face of the courtesan burns redder than the roses bloom in cheek of the debutante. Britt’s swings, pariicularly his rights, make an impression. But they are all worked outside Nelson's arm—the out-

I am socially inclined, but when I apply for admission to the young people’s club I am refused be- cause I am a divorced man. When I seek to become'a member of the mar- ried persons’ society, I am excluded be- cause I am divorced. “What alternative have I? They banish every divorced person in the city tor that simple but grossly inadequate reason—divorce. We are compeiled to organize or admit social ostracism. We will make a success of our society be- cause I have many divorced friends, both ladies and gentlemen. The divorced persons should be thrown together, 80- cially, and I think we have seized upon the only opportunity to attain this end. Hoppe’s effort to gather the divorced people of the city is the result of his exclusion from the ‘‘Rip Van Winkles, a social organization for married peo- ple only. He also applied for member- ship in the “Grays,” a society for un- married persons. Both clubs refused him because he was a divorced man. Hoppe is a well-dressed, genteel ap- pearing man of 45 years. He was married i6 years ago. He obtained a divorce from his wife four yars ago. He lives at 902 East Second -street in Al- ton, and for many years was 4 guard

ONE WOUNDED IN AUNNING BATTLE

Suspected Men Draw Revolvers | on Detectives When Called to Halt. Dan Wilson of Ponder, Mo., is in St. Mary’s Hospital, East St. Louis, with a bullet wound in his hip, and his part- ner, Guy Springer of Doniphan, Mo., is in Jail, the result of a running pistol battle with Detectives Dumphy and Yowell of the East si. Louis force Sun- day in the railroad yards at Third street and Illinois avenue. The detectives came upon the men in the yards about 2 p. m. and regarded their actions as suspicious. The men were wandering along the tracks, look- ing into box cars and giving other in- dications of loitering, sav. When asked their business the men the detectives Said they had none, but were merely killing time until their train left. One of the detectives asked the men if they were armed. At that Wilson broke away and ran. Detective Yowell fol- lowed. With several yards separating them, Wilson pulled a revolver from his pocket, turned and fired. Yowell drew his revolver and, he says, fired into the air. Wilson did not turn again, but Kept running. When his command to | halt was not heeded Yowell fired again. The bullet struck Wilson in the hip and he fell. His revolver, a handsome peari-handled weapon with a long bar- rel, fell a few feet from him out of his reach. He was trying to get to it when the detective came up and seized it. Wilson made no further resistance and was taken to St. Mary’s in an am- bulance. -His injury is not serious. Dumphy had less trouble with Springer. As Wilson started to run the detective jumped upon Springer and threw him to the ground. e took his revolver from him and Springer ac- companied him to Jail without trouble. The prisoners say they are stockmen and that they had brought a load of cattle to thé stockyards at East St. Louis. They had been wandering about the city waiting for their train, they said, and had no particular reason for going into the railroad yards. They did not know that it was necessary for them to abandon their weapons when

Church, will ask the grand jury to make a thorough inves- tigation of the methods used by char- itable organizations of St. Louis in the collection and. distribution of funds, He has called on Circuit Attor- ney Sager, who has assured him that the evidence which he has collected will be examined. At his church Sunday night Rev. Davenport preached a sermon in which he tuld his reasons for going before the grand jury. He said in part: “Charity is love in action, mercy un- tainted.
