er variety than those of any other pur- suit. The amounts paid for various world-famous works have recently been tabulated, and show almost incredible statistics. John Milton, for instance, received but $25 for ‘“‘Paradise Lost.”’ The same sum was paid to Campbell for his immortal ‘‘Pleasures of Hope.’’ For his first and greatest play, ‘“‘Hernani,’’ Victor Hugo was offered $100, and he writes: ‘l snapped up the offer before it could be withdrawn.”’ | Equally interesting is the other side of the question. Anthony Hope is said to have received nearly $10,000 for ‘‘The Prisoner of Zenda,’’ and probably more from accruing royalties. The Sunday Post-Dispatch has bought 12 new novels by the foremost living An- glo-Saxon authors (written especially the extraordinary sum of $150,000. All 12 of the books are strikingly orig- inal, none more so than ‘‘A Rock in the Baltic,’’ by Robert Barr, the first novel of the series. Mr. Barr is recognized leader of the school of ‘‘fiction of ac- tion.”’ The story is vibrant with living interest, and holds the reader spellbound from first to last. Et is the sort of book no normal man or woman can af- ford not to read. By a feat of enterprise never before achieved in the annals of journalism, this paper has secured the first right to publish all these great novels serial- ly, before they appear in book form.

funds came to Gov. Pardee, Mayor Schmitz, Gen. Funston and Mr. Morrow of the Red Cross. These funds are now being turned over to the Phelan com- mittee. Ameng the earliest cash contri- butions was $70,000 from John D. Rocke- feller. This was cashed by the Standard Oil interests. Some criticiam was caused when the finance committee was pre- sented with a bill for $100,000 by the Pa- cific Hardware Go. for hardware taken by citizens and firemen to fight the fire. It was held up. Here are some of the bills presented to the committee: Bills Presented. The relief committee put in bills for $35,000 for bread, $12,600 for transporta- tion of food supplies—3800 to 400 teams had been used at a cost of $1000 to $1500 a@ day. Bilis for hauling homeless amounted to $15,000. The Commissioner of Public Works put in bills for $6000 for removing gar- bage, $4000 for repairing sewers and is paying 20 men $4.50 a day. These bills indicate that the relief money will also be used to carry on the municipality and pay its bills. ’ Chairman Dillman of the committee on resumption of water supply reported that 18 to 17% men were in the field assist- ing the Spring Valley Company. He did not think the cost would exceed $1000 a day. The committee was in doubt as to what proportion of this cost should be borne by the Spring Valley Cmpany and what should be the company’s shere. The committee on restoration of lights, Rudolph Spreckels, chairman, was un- decided whether the householders, the ef company or the committee should r the expenses of the test or the ex- amination of the pes on each building before the gas is turned on from the service pipes. ,Spreckels expressed the opinion that the cost of the test, which will be considerable, should be placed on the householders before the service is turned on. Resides the work of the various relief opener ton the fraternal orders are doing a great work. The Knights of Columbus, Masons, Odd Fellows, Bagles, Elks and others have collected and dis- tributed money and food to members. They have relieved the city of the care of 25,0000 persons. Great gpa prevails on the water front and on Fillmore street. The Belt Line’ Railway hae trains running. Along the docks ships are unloading and Mar- ket street is making ready to welcome atreet cars. lley wires are up as far as Fifth street, but before the power is turned on an inspection will be made. Probably 1000 men are at work clearing the streets. They are concentrated on Market and Mission streets. The Mer- chents’ Exchange will be ready for ten- ants next week. Work has recom- menced in the Fairmont Hotel, and the $3,000,000 edifice will be ready for guests n three months. A bonus of $1000 to is d for leases on Fillmore street, which will be the chief business thoroughfare while the city is building. he banks and insurance companies have opened small temporary offices in the, district.

Gen- eral agents of the big companies, ac- companied by adjusters, are arriving daily. There is fear, which finds ex- ression among students of insurance, hat there will be an insurance crash. Bankers, trust companies, financiers and insurance companies out here are gelling all their Wall street holdings and accumulating cash. As soon as the vaults are opened there will be further heavy selling of bonds and investment stocks on Wall street. Clash Over Militia. Gov. Pardee and Mayor Schmitz have again clashed over the State militia. The Mayor wants the troops taken out of San Francisco. “IT want them out because there is a conflict of orders and authority, and the regulars are able to handle the sit- uation,’’ the Mayor told the Gavernor. “This seems like an attempt to be- little the National Guard,’ replied the Governor. ‘Many of the charges against them I do not believe.’ He refused to grant the Mayor's wishes, but on the arrival of the addi- tional regular troops next week he may take the militia to Oakland and Ber- keley. Politics is beginning to show its head above the ruins. Friends of the Mayor allege that the great spread of the fire was due to the defective service pipes of the Spring Valley Water Co. If the mains and connections had been in good order, they say, they would have with- stood the shake-up. Instead, they broke and cracked like icicles. Mayor Schmitz was elected on an anti. Spring Valley Water ticket. The cor- pornos has no permanent franchise, ut must obtain one from year to year. Herbert Law, a locai capitalist, left for the East after a conference with several leading financiers. It ig saiq that he will ask Congress for a Gov- ernment loan of $100,000,000 at 2 per cent er annum, to be used in rebuilding.

' PHILADELPHIA, April 28-4 strik. ing feature of the monster benefit given here in the Academy of Music yesterday under the auspices of theatrical man- agers of Philadelphia’ for the sufferers in San Francisco was the auctioning of a kiss from the tempting lips of Miss Edithe Gibbons, a member of the “Rosa- lie’’ company. The bidding was most spirited, py; Howard Dixon, who is said to be from Boston, carried off the prize when he id $100, He paid his hundred and went orward gallantly. It did not take much time. Miss Gibbons puckered up her lips and he did likewise. She blushed a bit, but he was scarlet. Then they closed their eyes; there was a barely au- dible smack and the $10 worth of de. light W&s over. very detai] of the benefit was con. tributed, and not a penny of the re. ceipts from the sale of seats, flowers or programs will have to be paid for ex- penses.

identified previously as Jeffries’ erty. Albert Meyer, former deputy sheriff, testified that he arrested Jeffries near Eureka, St. Louis County. Jeffries was with his. father and brother, and all carried guns, that of the father being a loaded musket. Meyer took this gun away from the older Jeffries and dis- charged it. After he had arrested Jef- fries he took off the prisoner’s shoes. The left shoe had a heavy patch on the sole. The deputy identified these shoes in court. Gus Adermeine testified that, eight days after the murder, while gathering reens two blocks above the 58t. Charles Waterworks plant, he found a Colt’s revolver and several cartridges hidden behind a telegraph pole. He identified the revolver, a 41-caliber, and the cartridges, shown to him in the courtroom. Admitted Owning Gun. Sheriff Hynes was then called to the Stand, but Attorney Jones for the de- fense objected to his testifying, on the ground that he was not a competent witness, that, as an officer, he had ex- ercised an undue influence over the prisoner and was prejudiced. The jury were sent out of the room and Jeffries was placed on the stand and asked what influence had been exercised in obtaining a statement from him. He replied that Sheriff Hynes and two dep- uties from St. Louis County had “spoken to'' him. udge Barnett then ruled that Sheriff’s testimony was admissible. Sheriff Hynes testified that when he was returning with Jeffries from Clay- ye to St. Charles, the prisoner had “That big gun you fellows have got used to belong to me, but I sold it4o the day of the murder to my partner, Willis Hood.’’ Here Attorney Jones for the fense asked .if Willis Hood was court, He not present, and, asking why Sheriff Hynes replied: the “I have been unable to arrest him.’’ in conection Hood is also wanted with the killing of Wussler. Much time was lost in waiting for Louis Deputy. Sheriff House of — 8t. County and Sheriff Gehlert of Frank- lin County, and, as they failed to ar- rive, Louls Ringe was the first wit- ness placed on the stand. He is an expert gunsmith, and testified the revolver shown him the bullet been killed, which was also him, was fired from a weapon. Henry Ringe, brother of the pre- ceding witness, testified along Same line, and the State then rested.

I and a de- in was told that Hood was not, that in court was a.Colt’s 4licaliber, that the cartridges shown were also 41-caliber, and that with which Wussler had shown 41-caliber the were huddled on the street. Houses were failing on all sides, and we knew we could not safely stay there. There was a big vacant lot, a sort of recreation ground, a few blocks away, and we all hurried there. Some of the “Babes in Toyland’’ Company, playing at the Columbia Theater, were there, too, Nearly everybody was in dishabille, many of the women having only their nightgowns on, though some had grabbed up their Skirts as they fled, and these they put on over their nightgowns. “The buildings on the blocks rounding the grounds where we had gathered were all afire and the flames were beginning to sweep across tne remember hearing people wonder if the trees would catch on fire, little boy in the crowd began crying and said: ' ‘Course they’ll catch fire! Ain’t trees wood?’’ Chinese Crazed With Fear. “There was one street leading out from where we were that did not seem to be all wrapped in flames and we started away. We were told that the only safe place to go was Golden Gate Park, but it was a long distance away and the whole city seemed to be in flames. It looked as if the world was burning. But we went on, and appar- ently we wandered nearly all over town. “At one time we passed through a art of Chinatown. It was burning, ut they had not begun ig stg the houses then. That was begun ater, and the noise of the dynamite explo- sions and the falling houses after each explosion was the most awful sound I ever heard. In Chinatown the natives were crazy with fear. They swarm out like rats from a hole, shrieking and crying and jabbering in the strangest fashion. “One Chinaman, who had apparently lost his senses, had gathered all his belongings into a pile and marched around and around them, carrying 4 gun like a soldier, and threatening ev- erybody who came near him. “We hurried past Chinatown. By that time the soldiers were beginning to patrol the streets. A _ soldier told us that we ought to seek refuge in the Presidio, the military barracks, and we started for there. It seemed to mé@ about twenty-five miles away, but at last we arrived. On the way a kind woman whose home had escaped ruin gave us some coffee and bread. It was the first thing in the line of food we had tasted that awful morning. t Traveled in Small Launch. “After arriving at the Presidio we decided that we ought to try to get across the bay and make our way to Oakland, where we could catch a train for the Kast. We went down to the waterside. boatman, who had a gasoline launch. He agreed to take us across the bay for $20. Ten of us went on the first trip, but when he returned for the rest of the company they were afraid to make the trip in his little launch and sent word to us that they would go to the San Francisco Ferry and for us to meet them there and we would take a steam- er together for Oakland. : “The Italian returned to us. We on the far side of the bay didn’t have the $20 that had been promised him and he was greatly excited, tating at us in Italian and saying I don’t know waat awful things. Finally, when we cane. a boat for San Francisco, he went wit us. and there we paid him his money. “The last 50 cents I had in the world I paid. for a little -book of views of =e Francisco, bought while the city sprea before me all in flames. I bought the k because I knew that San Fran- ciaco was being wiped out of existence and I wanted the pictures of what it had - been. “When we joined the rest of the com- any at the ferry we found that May ‘ollins was not with them. She had re- fused to leave her trunk, and had ap- parently iost her reason, falling ere violent spells of hysterics. They ree her to open her trunks, take what — ing she needed, and come along, but she wouldn’t do it. She was shrieking out that she saw thousands of dead people and that the judgment da had Spe and the world was being destroyed.

HARKS, UWN AND QUT, I) UNSCARRED — Broke Up ‘Two-Days’” Con- vention on First Day, but Saved the Rent.

POSED AS GLADIATOR Brandishing Plank, He Defied “Tub” Becker and Nied- ringhaus Host, Although summarily ousted from the secretaryship of the Missouri State League of Republican Clubs, whose ‘two days'’”’ convention he brought to an abrupt conclusion after one day by un extraordinary pugilistic demonstra- tion, Sim Harris, chief gladiator of the convention, was resting easy Saturday. Proudly he pointed faceward and said: “They didn’t even put a scar on me.’’ Then Sim chuckled and told why the convention had to adjourn late Friday afternoon instead of continuing through Saturday. “TI knew of the plot that the two Toms had hatched to put me down and out,’’ said Sim to a Post-Dispatch re- porter. “Somebody told me early in the morn- ing, so I went to the Exposition man- agement and got a refund of $40, the second day’s rental of the hall. “Col. Kerens footed this bill, the same Kerens whom they denounced in their resolutions. Yet not one of them could have occupied a seat in that hall if it hadn't been for Col. Dick putting up the spondulicks. Appalled by Ingratitude. “Getting the mazuma at the night time is what talks. When I ex- plained the situation to Col. Dick— told him we were shy on rent and the big moguls had refused to help, he forked out $150 and said: “See if that won’t hold you for awhile.’ “So I rented the hall for three days. But when I found out what was com- ing off—that they were going to do me up—me, the man that got the dough for the hall, without as much as “Thank vou, Mr. Harris, for your services,’ why, I told the Exposition management we wouldn’t need the hall for Saturday. “So at 6 o'clock, when it came time to turn on the lights, there was noth- ing doing. “But wise Jep Howe and little Joey McCoy .were equal to the emergency. At least they thought they were. “So they rushed through a cut and dried pola cr pretended to elect a lot of officers on the votes of delegates whose credentials will be proved to be illegal when the National League Clubs convene at Philadelphia, and then. ad- journed the session sine die. Somebody said I would go out of the hall on my head. Didn't I walk out entirely un- scathed, and fairly lionized by the dele- gates, when it was all over? There's nothing Iike knowing how to fight and not get hurt. So me for a gasoline launch and a few days’ sail on the river.” Police Thrice Called. Three times during the convention Fri- day afternoon the police were called up- on to preserve order, as told in late editions of the Post-Dispatch. The trouble started over the perman- ent organization of the convention. Ru- mors were current early in the day that Harris, following his dethronement as secretary, would be forcibly ejected from the hall. To circumvent this plan, Harris sent to his office for the receipts showing that he had paid rent for the hall, tele- phoned to the Four Courts for a squad of policemen, saying he expected a “rough house,”’ and at least a dozen blue coats would be necessary. At 3 p. m. two sergeants and six policemen ar- rived. The convention had not reconvened, and Harris was restive. At the morn- ing session a resolution by Jeptha D. Howe, chairman of the Republican succeed Frank Orff the convention selected John Albus. The other officers elected were: Vice-presidents, George Riechmann, St. Louis: C. A. Pittman, St. Louis, and Anton Kramolowsky, Union; secretary, E. N. Lee, St. Louis; assistant secre- tary, Theodore Remley, Kansas City; treasurer, Henry Droste, 8t. Louis; ser- geant-at-arms, Frank Froeckmann, St. Louis; assistant, Theodore Washington. E. Mont Riley of Kansas City was made natioaal committeeman and F. P. ; Graves, Doe Run, vice-president for the State of Missouri of the National League. The delegates at large to the national convention in Philadelphia are: Senator William Warner, Herbert 8S. Hadley, J.

tenant-Governor John C. McKinley and H. M. Beardsley, Mayor of Kansas City. Secretary Shaw was scheduled to ad- dress the delegates at 4p. m. News of what had happened was conveyed to him by National Committeeman Akins, who was at the hall for a few minutes, ang he announced that under no circum- stances would he address the warring convention.

Tea Notes, English Breakfast is a term applied to all black teas, but there is a won- derful difference in the flavor and healthful qualities of English break- fast tea. In England today practical- ly all the tea consumed comes from Cevion and _ India. These teas are fast acquiring the favor of the Amer- icans because of their healthful and invigorating qualities, many people abandoning coffee on account of its injurious effect on their health. The most delicious of all teas today is that sold in the lead packets under the name ‘“SALADA.” The green teas of this brand are fast displacing the adulterated article from Japan, as they are absolutely pure. It will pay you to get a trial packet from your grocer.

The letter of the Bridge and Terminal Commission té the Basterh railroad representatives emphasizes upon the reduced transfer rate for shipments on roads with east side | terminals as a discrimination against west side ter- miriéls and a menace to the plans for west side deliv- eries and St. Louis bills of lading. The letter vig- orously arraigns the Eastern railroads which are evi- dently scheming to overthrow all that has been gainéd for St. Louis, and strongly urges the adoption of @ straightforward and just course of action to- wards St. Louis. In this letter the commission reiterates with em- phasis the platform upon which the Post-Dispatch has been fighting from the beginning of its cam- paign for justice to St. Louis. The platform includes: (1)The St. Louis bill of lading; (2) West side station deliveries and merchandise receipts; (3) Parity of St. Louis and East St. Louis through rates, or in two words, abolition of the arbitraries. All of St. Louis, except persons interested in the bridge and terminal graft, stand with the commis- sion upon this platform and will support it in any sound campaign to these ends. But the commission should not stay tod long upon its knees. The Post- Dispatch believes that there is a limit to friendly négotiation and diplomacy and when that limit is reached the guns should open on the enemy. We be- lieve in fighting for denied rights. We believe the limit has been reached in the St. Louis bridge tolls. | Fortunately, there are hopeful signs of victory through railroad competition. Announcement of the Wabash that. its west side terminal policy is irre- yocabie and that it will fight against discrimina- tion, and the announcement that the Cumberland Gap Despatch line and the Louisville & Nashville ex- _pect to absorb the arbitrary are encouraging. We bespeak for lines which stand for St. Louis interests the support of St. Louis shippers and all the aid that the munitipality can extend to them. i a 4 ‘The facts will not make us proud, but it is im-} _ portant thet all Missourians should know childrer of tender years are employed in violation of Jaw - in Missouri factories.

HONESTY AS A POLICY. When Shérburn ea Milwaukee, aged 29, was accused of “the enormous crime of being 4 young man” he did not attempt to palliate or deny went right on making votes and was elected - Becker announces his policy. It is defined in’ one ‘word—honesty, and he seems to be pursuing it so TSS canis that it is hoped he will realize it in a \go@f administration. Th thia respect Mr. Becker is @ faithful follower e* ¢bflerson, who said that “the whole art of govern- -\%.6 ig the art of being honest.” ' ‘6 may be said that other things are needed, as aa | fom, discretion, good judgment, ete.

MONOPOLY AND REFORM. When the attempt ‘was made to reform the mo- eS nopoly tariff under the Cleveland administration, it President, Mr. and refused to sign the bill and allowed it to become @law without his signature. | it was vitiated by concessions Congress of the monopoly Th. tion of the meaning of opposition to his “syste.” eines, shut ganization by striking. But it had already shown its full weakness for disorganization under three administrations whose policies it controlled. Prior to the first election of Cleveland, it forced both the price of agricultural products and of labor in factories and mines to the lowest point. It was during this period that Andrew Carnegie came to the front as an organizer of a Pinkerton army of des- peradoes picked up from city slums and Western | mining camps and entrenched by “protected” capital to use securely the best and most modern breech- loading rifles protected money could buy to “shoot down wages.” It is American history that wages were shot down thus. It is American history that this system bred not only pauperism, but homicide and riot, with the cities filled with starving people, while at the same time breadstuffs were being used as fuel in Kansas and other states of the Northwest. When Secretary Shaw leaves out such things as this his memory must be failing or he must think that those to whom he is speaking as the official historian of monopoly methods have lost theirs alto- gether. == a i The San Francisco disaster overshadowed the ruin of several smaller cities’in California, the destruc- tion of which by the earthquake was proportion- ately worse than that of the greater city. The suf- ferers in these smaller cities should not be neg- lected and since the local relief committee in Frisco seems to be able and anxious to handle the relief work there the Red Cross should devote a part of its attention and funds to the other victims. THE MILLION GOAL. According to the estimate based upon the new city directory, St. Louis has a population of 720,000. The work to be done in placing St. Louis in the million class is clearly marked out. 3 Since the census of 1900 St. Louis has gained 145,- 000. Calculation of the rate of gain is vitiated by the World’s Fair, but that the rate is high may be judged by the overcoming of the losses of the World’s Fair temporary population within a year, and by the manifest evidence of growth. The rate normally increases every year so that we may safely assume that the normal increase of the city’s population within the next five years will be 200,000, making a total in 1910 of 920,000, only 80,000 short of the million goal. The task for the next five years is to add 80,000 to the normal population growth of the city. It can be done. 4 =a rr With eight new school buildings for 1906 the edu- cational record of St. Louis will be brightened very much. == = > = = HOW FAR FROM WANT. The food supply of San Francisco was almost entirely destroyed within 24 hours after the earth- quake, and the organization of relief work is not yet so far completed that food can be obtained at all times without difficulty as it can in normal times when the housekeeper rings up the butcher and baker and gives the order. The question is raised: How far distant is army great city from starvation? San Francisco reached the starvation point in 12 hours by reason of the fire. But suppose every railroad, waterway, wagon road and foot path inte St. Louis were blocked, how long would the supply of food hold out? Speculative persons have often asked this ques- tion without ever imagining it could ever be of prac- tical interest. But the Sap Francisco disaster sug- great practical interest to a large city. San Fran- cisco itself was destroyed, but might not Boston or New York be isolated by some great natural catastrophe? We are interdependent. There is no man living who ean get along without his fellow men and the truth applies with even more solemn force to great cities. >>>. rw [ LETTERS FROM THE PEOPLE FRISCO INSURANCE. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. If insurance contracts are as closely construed i@ the San Francisco calamity as statutory enactments of the various states are construed in the govern- ment of insurance companies, then the San Francisco sufferers will have no more show than insurance companies generally enjoy; and the same would be legal and businesslike. It would be better, however, if all companies would be liberal in agg pengy | their contracts and paying in full. But! To do so it may be necessary to scrape the bottomsof their treasuries, and the laws should be temporarily relaxed so as to allow them to do so, And the insuring world will doubtless be glad to help, by paying increased rates for some time to comeé.: vy, A eemeneneetnninel PRICES FOR SEATS AND STRAPS. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. The trolley that was lately introduced by our city fathers restricting the number of passengers to the number of seats inside the car, if ed, will be the greatest possible wrong they can inflict upon the public. Passengers who must get downtown to their work or place of business will not stand on a corner and see car after car g6 by them, law or no law.

The de- sire is to provide the passenger with a ride in a seat for a nickel. If the.company cannot so provide they should not be allowed to charge full price. Let an ordinance be passed—ride and seat, 5 cents; ride when no seat is vacant, 2% cents. This is a simple solu- tion that has been frequently suggested and will make it to the interest of the car company to provide a8 many seats as possible.

Col. Robert A. Aull, Park Commis- sioner: Dear Sir—Don't you think we may now and then adapt to our own ends the wisdom of the ancients? We observe that you are attending the bird and animal auctions and are buying bears and Chinese pheasants. In addi- tion to running to the extremes in tails, it seems that this sort of thing is dis- sembiing too much to promise that the Forest Park Zoo wil] ever be able to hold ita own with the summer gardens. The Zoo is a very old institution, Mr, Aull, and why should we return over the experimental ground fully covered by the ancients? If you are not a stu- dent of this important institution, upon its historical side, it is pertinent to In- form you that the Zoo attained its ef- florescence in Mexico under the Monte- zumas. They tried long-tailed pheas- ants and bob-tailed bears and all that sort of thing, just as you are doing, and out of this experimenting they conceived the greatest Zoo the world has ever know. They turned out the bears and pheasants, and began the collection of queer-looking men. Albinos, redheads, giants, runts, bowlegs, knockknees, long- heads, flat heads, round heads, square heads, bullet heads, big feet, dog-faced boys and Simian-visaged Sentlemen were brought in from every part of the Az- tec Empire and confined in a huge cage. The result was that when Cortez tried to see the Zoo he had to wait in line three days. ; Isn't there a suggestio | n in this for us, Mr. Aull? : If something could be done now to keep the St. Louls Cardinals from look- vide clothing f pate cr hpipiens. — clo r those c : oo * OL ER. i ing down, By Bret Harte.

CAN THE HUMAN PACE AVERT EXTINCTION? C. W. Saleeby, F. R. S., in Harper’s Magazine. the human intelligence can ever succeed in averting the “‘proces- sion of the great year’’ is not by post- puning the issue, but by reversing the process. The question is this: Whilst energy is being dissipated in accord- ance with the natural law, can we 680 manfpulate things as to accumulate en- ergy, making the unavailable available —notwithstanding the fact that cosmic processes seem to be essentially irre- versible? Now there is assuredly no inherent reason why we should not ac- complish this. It is true that hitherto all the atomic evolution that has been observed is atomic disintegration... We may speak now, indeed, of the analysis of the elements. But so it was, we may remember, that the older chemistry be- gan, and yet analytic chemistry was the precursor of synthetic chemistry. We began by breaking up compounds, but now we can make them—can, in- deed, make compounds hitherto un- known in nature. Similarly, it is more than probable that we shall ere long Too only conceivable way in which radium atom, itself the child of the uranium atom, breaks down and dissi- pates its energy, ending, it is supposed, as the dull atom of lead, the ype energies are not destroyed.

Therefore I’m not ‘laming Dr. Mitchell the least bit in the world, beoause he has told a most | | | teresting and exceedingly dramatic story in this instance—one that I didn’t | at out of my hands until] I had finished its reading and the smoking of two gare that tasted all the better for ‘A Diplomatic Adventure’s’ accompani- vemt.’’ . “Don’t you think, though,” suggested the Literary Grain Broker, “that here’s a dangerous lapse intervening between the moment of the heroine's first Opearance on page 15 and her second, on page 82—remembering that the tory is then half finished? That’s a perilously long time to wait for her lady- hip!’’ " “It @0uldn’t be helped,” spoke the former Congressman. ‘‘Here you have mn unknown veiled lady taking: refuge from the rain in a young American iplomat's coupe—she is pursued by an excited dignitary of the French For- gn Office—it's evident that she has done some daring deed of the utmost mo- ent—and you don’t know a thing about it! Well, then the story’s got to be rveloped wp to this <irst appearance of the heroine, the various other char- eters brought in, the foundation laid for the action and incident bound to fol- w the heroine’s next entrance on the stage—and I must say that Dr. Mitch- it does all this very cleverly. The story moves swiftly and -vividly, and iere’s a etriking picture of the mesh of foreign intrigue which enveloped merican diplomats in the great European capitals during the first three ‘ears of our Civil War. I found this phase of the tale especially interesting.”’ “The hero, Capt. Arthur Merton, Second Infantry, U. 8. A., is just too love- y for anything!” cried The Girl. “I think Dn Weir’s right in calling him ) Arteagnan, for he certainly acted the part with those three bumptious frenchmen whom he himself laughed at as Porthos, Athos and Aramis, and whom he was ready to fight one after the other. That’s the sort of a hero for me!’’ , “Of course, of course!” laughed the Old Playgoer. ‘That sort of a hero eatches a woman’s fancy every time—or else the other extreme typé of hero, ascetic and fervently religious, with all kinds of psychological problems to colye before he can die happy. Women swing like pendulums from one of these types to the other.” The Girt’s eyes flashed and the Literary Grain Broker hastily intervened. “IL thought,” he remarked, ‘‘that the young American secretary of legation was ‘the hero. The story begins and ends with him.” i : “O pshaw!” cried The Girl, forgetting to rebuke the Old Playgoer, ‘‘he only tells the story! It’s that romantic Capt. Merton who's the real hero, but I must gay that Dr. Mitchell doesn’t make half as much of him as he might. As for the young diplomat—well, I like him, too, but he doesn’t make the same _ appeal as the Yankee D’Artagnan.”’ _ “Yet he runs as great a risk of his life, besides all the peril of spoiling -his career if things hadn’t turned out right,’ said the High School Teacher. “It struck me that this nameless young American diplomat had a good deal of the makings of a hero in him.”’ ' “The Girl is right, however,” chimed in the Old Playgoer. “You're all for- @etting the final test showing who's the hero of a romance—and that final mst proves The Girl's case.” "And what is it?’ asked the others. , “Capt. Merton wooes, wins and marries the heroine,” was the reply. ‘And there's no room left for argument asto who’s the hero.”’ It is a pleasure to assure the reader that one may have as much fun read- ‘ ing “The Glory’ Seekers” (A. C. McClurg & Co.) as William Horace Brown Highest Awards in Europe and America

f the bee of empire buzzed industriously in no end of adventurous bonnets. That he looked them all up and applied his talent to embodying their several schemes and stories into a book we should be grateful to Mr. Brown. If you are interested in the history of the Southwest and in the (U!nion’s march over opposing events, read ‘The Glory Seekers.”’ THE FACETIOUS SHAW. There are many who write; and there are many who could, if they would, say with Touchstone ‘An ill-favored thing, sir, but mine own.’’ But we have yet to discover that George Bernard Shaw could truthfully say it, save in jest; for there is never-failing quality in the Shaw quantity. His ‘Plays Pleasant and Unpleasant’’ (published by Brentano’s) are something to read with zest. They teem with the cleverness of Shaw, and whoso is not read- ing Shaw nor seeing his plays is practicing a self-denial that is a pity, indeed. The two neatly-printed volumes just published contain ‘‘Widowers’ Houses,”’ “The Philanderer,’’ Mrs. Warren’s Profession,’’ ‘‘Arms and the Man,” “Can- dida,’’ ‘“‘The Man of Destiny’’ and “You Never Can Tell.”” They are each pre- faced by the author, one of the proems being “Mainly About Myself,” with enough of Shaw in it to commend with spirit the rest of the book. SOMETHING NEW IN SHORTHAND. While Isaac Pitman’s system of shorthand is so excellent as to permit of little improvement, new ways of teaching and learning it are possible. The best so far discovered is to be found in ‘‘Isaac Pitman’s Short Course in Shorthand,’ just published by Isaac Pitman & Sons, New York. The im- provements in this manual over its predecessors are in the arrangement of the lessons, of which there are forty. Words and sentences are introduced in the first lesson. Business letters are introduced in the seventh lesson. Posi- tion writing is taught from the commencement. Phrases are taught from the fifth lesson. The grammalogues and contractions are introduced gradually and incorporated into all the exercises. The reporting style is taught from the commencement. These improvements in method mean that the student has nothing to unlearn, but becomes acquainted with the final, best outline of a word or phrase from the start. In the old style of teaching there wag the learner’s style, the intermediate and the reporter's. The student had to un- learn outlines and adopt contractions, etc., thus involving a waste of time. This system of shorthand has been exclusively adopted by the high schools of Greater New York, and the manual now issued will go far towards making the system still more popular and useful.

There are more rugs’ of high quality being woven today than ever before, and this is due principally to the fact that there is a better mar- ket ‘for them than ever before. The United States alone imports $4,000,000 worth a year—about two and a half mil- lions before the duty is paid.

L. te A “TS BENCH SHOW ON SATURDAY NIGHT se — -- Most Superior Canine Exhibition Ever Held in St. Louis Will Come to an End—Some Remarkable | Exhibits. BY J. B. The best dog show ever held in St. Louis will close its doors Saturday night. Hence, those who fancy dogs and have not yet seen the exhibition, had best be hurrying to it. The judging, as is usual in shows, has been causing much adverse coni- ment. Maj. Taylor brought down the wrath of greyhound fanciers when he gave Ben Lewis’ lurchers—absolutely the worst dogs entered—first There was not a dog in the show that is not superior, from any point, than the Lewis animals, which have neither points or breeding to recom- mend them. Though not a judge of English bull- dogs, I cannot see wherein Newing- ton Lady is a better dog than her husband, Drayton Monarch. But Mr. O'Neill's bitch got the ribbon for the best dog in the show over his sister's Rreat bulldog. : Blind Terriers Given Blues. The judging in the fox terriers was funny. ‘ Two first prize winners were plainly blind. Now what good can a _ blind terrier be? The award in the collie class, which Rave the Milwaukee dog, Conquerer Jr. the ribbon for best collie over Miss Georgia Madill’s local star, Douglas M., Was just and equitable. Conqueror Jr. is a very handsome sa- ble and white dog, good in every point, with much better coloring and countenance than Douglas M. Collies and fox terriers alike are numerous and ill looking. Breeding for long heads seems to have ruined these dogs. There were collies wearing blue ribbons that have no backs or Joins, or feet, or eyes, or intelligence. John A. Long of St. Louis judged He knows his business. Foxhounds, too, are numerous and poor. Ben Lewis has a good bitch in Nevada and a fair dog in Lansdowne Perfection. They are away the best pair of foxhounds in the show. Beagles are very good and very pret- ty. ‘he beagle exhibit is one of the best in the show. These dogs have not been ruined by the rage for long heads. Pointers and Setters Fine. Pointers and setters are numerous, and as Missouri and Illinois are field- trial States, a really fine type of dog is sustained in this show. There are s0 many setters and pointers that it is almost impossible to pick the best. They are all good. [Irish and Gordon setters seem to be losing their vogue. Alas, the Liewellyn is a better dog. A Chesapeake Bay dog and his near prizes. . CLOSES SHERIDAN. relative, an Irish water spaniel, are bench mates. These are odd dogs in- deed, and very good and useful ones around water shooting. The Irishman is a fine type, albeit there is a trifle too] much hair on his tail. He is owned by L. Hanks of St. Louis. Clumber, field and cocker gpaniels are light in numbers and class. So are Dal- matian coach dogs and poodles of all sorts. There may be good judges who differ with me, but I like the up-to-date bull terrier very much. I fancy the white color, the long, lean throat and fine, firm jaw. There may be a falling off about the eyes and forehead owing to the quest for the long head, but I think that the bull terrier is a really much improved dog. Bostons I have no eyes for. Foxes I have already gone over. I thought that in wires and smooths John S. Bratton had the best dogs, from a terrier stand- point. His Rags looks like a capable terrier and Miss Elsie Bratton’s Oxford Jap is a sturdy smooth coach. Some one- eyed dogs, belonging to Mr. Higginson of Boston, got firsts in the wire-haired classes. Oxford Satan, Sabine Felice and Sabine Recruit made good impres- sions. Sabine Recruit looks like a very good dog. Alredales Are Dullish. Airedales do not appeal to me. They lack terrier life and go and intelligence; are too big and indifferent. Among Irish terriers, George Thomas’ Endcliffe Ignito seemed much the best. He is a well-headed dog. L. E. Ander- son’s Macbeth is not a bad-looking dog, either, while nothing can surpass the sturdy Irish homeliness of Capt. Den- nis J. O’Callaghan, a famous Irish ter- rier owned by Miss Elizabeth D. Hodg- man. Herman Stifel’s Raynham Radle um — also a very fine specimen of this breed Scotch, Sykes, Welch, black and tans all had their representati es. Pigs and) Italian greyhounds are not much. Miss Florence Teschemacher showed a good Yorkshire in Endcliffe Muriel. St. Ber- nards I have no use for in this climate. Some of the Great Danes are very fine, notably Mrs. Van Studdiford’s Flo, a bite of splendid neck and head, and Dwight Davis’ Silverthorn Fritzl. A very handsome and lonesome dog—he is the only one in his class—is Mrs. Erwin Hilts’ Russian wolfhound Valley Roby Roy. There are multitudes of dogs, and all of them pretty and worth looking at. I have merely spoken of the breeds I like and know best. A visit to the show is worth a year in a dog school. ——— M. A.C.

Myer Prinzstein, Irish-American A. C., won the running long jump, and in the final heat for the 100-meter race Archie Hahn, Milwaukee A. C., finished first, and Fay R. Moulton, Kansas City A.

We took the rst two honors in the final heat, winning the great 100-meter dash. Hahn went away from the tape like a streak of scared sunshine, and he helped to make Milwaukee more famous by winning in li 1-58. But he had to hustle to beat that other wing-footed Western lad, Fay Moulton, flying Kan- sas City colors, who ran him close all the way and finished second, with sev- eral yards to spare. Barker, the Aus- tralian, was third. Then Myer Prinzstein of the_ Irish- Americans mended his hold on the title of the world's champion running long jumper. He covered 7 meters 20 centi- meters. P. H. O'Connor, Ireland, was second, but Prinzstein beat him over 17 centimeters. O’Connor’s score was 7 me- ters 2%.

Doriza, another Grecian, was third with 18 meters 98 centimeters. Perhaps our fellows should have been satisfied after this showing, but they were not evidently, for Bonhag, Irish- American A.

| Richard Mansfield as “Don Carlos,” Satd to Be His Greatest Work.

Schiller’s Drama Gives Ameri-|* can Actor One Especi- ally Strong Scene. The sale of seats for the Richard Mansfield engagement at the Olympic next weék is attaining proportions that promise crowded houses at every per- formance. While it is true that an especial interest attaches to his produc- tion next Thursday evening of Schiller’s eat drama, “Don Carlos,”’ for the first me in St. Louis, it is equally true that as deep an interest seems to be felt in his appearance Monday evening and Saturday afternoon as the Rev. Arthur Dimmesdalé in ‘‘The Scarlet Letter,’ to which New York and Boston reviewers have — as the greatést piece of emotional acting the world has known, one that a corresponding interest is egg in the other bills of the week— ing Richard IfI,’’ “Beau Brummel “fe Parisian Romance” and “Dr. Jekyll | os and Mr. Hyde.”’ In his newest offering, ‘‘Don Carlos,”’ Mr. Mansfield is said to give a massive production of Schiller’s play and a character creation of the most vital de- scription. The Mansfield version of “Don Carlos’ is founded on the tra- ditional versions of the endowed German theaters, which were loaned to Mr. Mansfield for his tht pte f In the fourth act, over the dead body of Posa, he is said to do the greatest piece of acting of his entiré career, compassing every human passion and emotion—hate, fear, love, pity, hope. contempt, horror and despair. Mr. Mansfield comes to St. Louis almost direct from his ex- traordinarily successful New York sea- son, of which his production of “Don

Carlos’’ was one of the great features.

fuse 5-Cent Wage In- crease, When the 300 employes of the East St. Louis & Suburban Railway Co. meet in the car barns in East St. Louis Sunday morning to discuss their differences with the manage- ment of the road, it is likely they will be told that the increase to 27 cents an hour in the pay of conductors and motormeén, for which they have asked, will not be granted. The com- pany declares its willingness to pay the St. Louis rate of 23 cents an hour, but no more. It will then remain for the employes to accept this proposi- tion or declare a strike. General Munager L. C. Haynes of the company says that the motermen and conductors have been paid 22% cents an honr, although the average pay in Illinois, Iowa, Indiana and ad- jacent states is only 18 cents an hour. Mr. Haynes declares that only a small ae cent of the employes are dissatis- fie employes acknowledge that they ure demanding 5 cents an hour more than is paid in St, Louis, but say that the demand is necessitated by the increased cost of living. They claim that they have the indorsement of the Trades and Labor Assemblies of Belleville, Bast St. Louis and Col- linsville In making their demand. Their movement for an increase in pay is under the direction of the Amalgamated Assoctation of Street and Electric Railway Emploves of America, No. 125, of East St. Louis, Should they declare a strike, it would tie up all the suburban cars, covering a distance of 65 miles from East St. Louis, and would similarly affect the East St. Louis city lines.

The Salvation Army would certainly get their share. I would then build myself a cozy little heme, live modestly, but not miserly; then at the end I would give the largest portion of my wealth to the Little Sisters of the Poor and the Old People’s Home. MRS. B. B. Another Socialist Propaganda. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. If $15,000,000 was given to me I would Bive $1,000,000 to the relief fund for San Francisco sufferers, $5,000,000 for to build and run at least 10 daily Socialist news- paper presses and place one press in each of our 1 leading cities to educate the people of the United States on the Socialist principles. Then I would take $6,000,000 and buy as much of good farm- ing land as I could get in one or more States, divide it into quarter sections and give it to the poorest families that I could find in the United States. I would spend $2.6€0,000 for stock, imple- ments, provisions, feed, seed and trees. Then I would take $975,000 for building material, taxes and clothing; $25,000 I would keep for myself and family to farm with. WM. E. MEYER. Feed the Hungry. To the Editor of the Post-Dispach. . What Il would do should I become heir to $15,000,000. First, would make myself comfortable and pay all debts there might be. Next, I would look up any relative who needs assistance, build them good sanitary and comfort- able home, not elegant, and place them in a position to help themselves. Thén I would look for a good, healthy loca- tion and buy ground and build a home for old people, the desire of my heart. Then I would build myself a nice home and have a well-filled library of the best books, take @ trip to Europe and do what I could for all worthy persons. I would feed the hungry and clothe the poor, And all should bless me who left my door. MRS. R. G. Home for the Aged. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. If I had $15,000,000 I would give more to the sufferers of San Francisco than all the people of St. Louis put together. I would be satisfied by keeping $2,000,000 for my own use. I think that is enough money to satisfy any human be- ing. I would build a fine home for old people, who have no money or no one to take care of them, and help every- body who was in need of money. CATHERINE. A Wad for Frisco. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. If $15,000,000 was given to me I would send $5,000,000 to San Francisoo and for $20,000 I would build a house.

P.; and tell her to prepare to take a trip around the world. My wife would discard her poor, home- made rags, and she should have a tail- ored gown. My socks would be silk, and no more sham diamonds for me. No more grafting for me. I’q simply be it in big letters. I would not forget Frisco, either. I'd leave a cool $10,000,000; that would beat A. Busch. Say, wouldn't we be fat. J.P. Afraid of Millionairitis. To.the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. Fifteen million dollars prudently han- died should yield a minimum income of half a million dollars per annum, If | had it I would confine the expense of my domestic establishment to $25,000 per year, and this would include travel, charity, contributions to public affairs, and all other expenses, except such as were incurred in the business end of my fortune, and I would undertake also to include this in the $25,000. The rest I would pile up, take an in- ventory of it at frequent intervals, dream about it nights, talk about and scheme for it by day, and eventually would learn to lie in the proteéettion of my vested interests. Iwo lies seem to be admissable generally: One is in the obscuration of those circumstances for which a man would perjure himself like an Englisht gentleman, and the other is in the defense of our old friend vested interests. To keep the financial balance from be- ing disturbed by seismic upheavals at the time of public calamity like the San Francisco situation, I would subscribe 200 or $300, if the solicitors butted in and were importunate, but this would comeé out of the $25,000 per. On reflection I believe 1 don’t want $15,000,000 in this climate; perhaps ! would elsewhere, but the combination don’t work out well in these parts; it seems to dry up the milk of human kindness. Out of the little I have now 1 can give away a bit now and then in. decent proportion to what I get, and I don't believe I want to contract multi- miliionairitis hereabouts. i oe. Employ 1000 Orators:! To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. If 1 had $14,000,000, as a Socilaist, 1 would lend all my efforts to teach the working class to vote for their own in- terests. The blessings of tte ballot— Oh! if only backed up with a militant would surely make for progress, justice. With $15,000,000 [ would empioy 1000 compétent teachers or orators on a salary of 31000 per year, making an expenditure of $1,000,000 per year to instruct them in Socialist eco- nomics and pursue this court for 10 years, making a grand total of $10,006 - 00). The remaining $5,900.00 I would use to publish Socialist literature, pay expenses of my speakers and other in- cidental expenses for a propaganda of this kind. Long before tne 10 years had gone by I think either or both of the two capitalist parties woull have gone out of business. SAMUEL SAMPSON. Help Those Who Help Themselves. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. If I were left $15,000,000 I would take say one-half and invest, and keep for myself and relatives; would@ buy a nice home not too far from city, get nice stock, chickens, étc., and all kinds of fruits. Then would hunt the deserving poor, struggling for homes, invest for each family say $1500 in a farm or city heme as they select; give them to under- stand they must take care of it; let them pay say $5 a month, no interest; each month, as enough was collected back to make $1500, invest for someone else. They could pay as much as they wanted each month, but $% sure. If some had homes and wanted to invest in a business, give the same way. Think it better than just giving it to them. This would help 5000 families to start and more each month. i MARY MILLER. Help for the Helpless. To the Editor of the Post-Dispach. What I would do with $15,000,000, | would bullt a home (best a farm) and endow it for men and women, who, hav- ing left some penitentiary, fully resolved to live honest, good lives, but are de- nied the opportunity, as it so often hap- ec ns. I would buy land and build farms, stock them and send out whole colonies of the poor and unemployed. I would build a large hospital some. where in the Ozark Mountains ana breild it quick. It should he the moet complete of its kind for consumptives. I would put a big slice of the money into the hands of the Humane Soclety (God bdless them) to use for the care and protection of abused children, and sick, homeless and abused animals. What a happy. blessed time millionaires could have doing such things, if they LOSE DAYS 0 Men Who Resigned to Take Clerical Jobs Find Fault With Ruling. SERGEANT TO BE RAISED Examination for Promotion to Lieutenancy Will Be Held Monday, Policemen who resigned a month ago to accept clerkships in the department are anything but pleased at the situa- tion that confronts them. Recreation days that were formerly theirs come to them no more. Under the present rules the clerks work 36 days in the year. The clerks declare that the ruling is an injustice, but no one will piace him- self on record as being the first to register a formal protest. “Of course, we can resign if we don't like our jobs,” said one old clerk to a Post-Dispatch reporter Saturday, “but positions are not to be had for the ask- ing, and after we have been in the de- partment as long as many of us have been we are not qualified for positions in other walks of life, and we have families to support. “When the proposition was made to have patrolmen who were assigned to clerical duty resign and get appoint- ments as clerks, we were told that there woul@ be no change in the work, and that practically we would go on just the same, but that there would be no chance for promotion. The patrolmen who were thus changed do get the same salary, $90 per month. “But the thing that we all object to is the fact that we get no time off. The clerks in all of the districts save the Central and Dayton street work 12 hours a day. In those two the work is eight hours a day.” Promotion for a Sergeant. Examinations of 61 police sergeants, one of whom will be awarded the Lieutenant's shoulder straps former- lv worn by Lieut. John T. English of the Magnolia Street District, who re- signed under. charges, will be held at: the Newstead Avenue Police Station Monday afternoon at a special meet- ing of the commissioners. At an executive session of the com- missioners held at the close of the hearing of Patrolman Dempsey Fri- day afternoon, the board considered the promotion of a Sergeant to fill the; vacancy. Sixty of the sergeants were found eligible to the appoint- ment, and it was said that 40 were not to be considered for the position. The board members declined to state why the 40 were found ineligible. Sergt. Louis Nolte is one of the eligible Sergeants who has .a large following, and by many he is be- lieved to be a leading candidate for the place. His work in the police zraft charges has made him conspicu- | ous recently, and his record is good, ! Sergt. James McNamara, who was; formeriy a Lieutenant, is believed to nave a fair chance, and so is Sergt.}; Owen McNamee, a brother of Capt.
