Delegates to the Democratic State and judicial conventions are being today at the Democratic primary elec- tion. The polls opened at 1 p. m. and will close at 8. The judicial convention, at which nominations will be made for the long and short terms on the Supreme bench, will be held at Excelsior Springs, May >) The State nominating convention to name a candidate for Railroad Commis- sioner and Superintendent of Public Schools, will be held at Jefferson City, June 5. The local contests are chiefly between the St. Louis Democratic Club and the Jefferson Club. Interest in the Twenty-é¢ighth Ward centers chiefly in the charges that the Butler influence has become allied with Excise Commissioner Mulvihill's faction in the Mulvihill-Prendergast fight. This allegation is freely made by the Prendergast workers, and Mr. Prendergast himself states as nuch. A conference is alleged to have been held Friday in which Colin M. Selph, president of the St.. Louis Democratic Club; Ralph Coale, member of the fiouse of Delegates from the Twenty- eighth Ward, and William Culp, a Folk appointee as coal Ol. inspector, took part, always enforeed. There are laws enough on the statute books to regulate al? these mooted questions if the proper test were made. No change in the laws is necessary and no new laws need be framed. If we interpret what we have, that will be all-sufficient. “I think Commissioner Garfield is right when he says the Government should interfere, and I am emphatic in the opinion that the Interstate Com- merce Commission should be clothed with greater wer. It should be al- most unlimited if it is to discover the Violations of the interstate laws. “The suggestion is made that oil be put on the free list as alcoho) used in the artg.

OR BOND CONCERK Court Puts State Official Charge of Assets Amount- ing to $115,000. William L. Watkins, State Supervisor of Building and Loan Associations, was appointed receiver of the National Bond Co. by Circuit uJdge Hough, following the filing of an amended petition in the suit of Mrs. Mathilda Bosse and others against the company. His bond was fixed at $25,000. ° case was trans- ferred to the Federal Court Saturday. The amended petition was filed late Frida a by Attorney W. H. Saunders. At ners Pearce and Davis, for the company, immediately filed an answer, making some formal denials, but admitting that the business of the com- pany was declining and 5 ie He in the prayer for the appointment of a re- ceiver. A temporary order fas also issued re- straining the company from interfering with Mr. Watkins tn taking possession of the assets. These amount to $115,000, according to Attorney Pearce, of which $100,000 is a deposit at Jeferson City and the rest is cash on hand and furni- ture. He stated that the bond obliga- tions of the company were $106,000, and that these liabilities would be paid in fall, the losses falling upon the stock- holders. : MEN OF MILLIONS AT SPENCER GRAVE Exposition Officials Honorary Pallbearers at Pala- tial Home.

Returns Costly. Rug to Mc- has received no formal- request from SATURDAY—S8T. LOUIS POST-DISPATCH —MAY 5, 1906

CONGRESS. WILL PHORE PEIRCE ORENTAL TAL Declare Official Brought Back Carload of Presents From Consuls.

ANSWERS HIS ACCUSER

Wade, Saying He Didn't | Mean to Keep It. é By Wire From the Washington Bureau of the Post-Dispatch. WASHINGTON, May 5.—Former_As- sistant Secretary of State Peirce will appeal to the House Committee on For- eign Affairs to give him an opportunity to refute the charge by former Consul- General McWade that Peirce, while making a tour of inspection of the consulates in China, forced McWade to give him a $00 tiger rug in considera- tion for making a report to the Depart- ment of State exonerating McWade from charges of corruption and drunkenness. It is believed that Peirce will be giv- en a chance to appear before the com- mittee and the fight over the incident will be carried out on the floor of the House. The charges against Peirce will result in Peirce leaving the Government service, in all probability. Late last night Peirce returned the tiger rug to McWade. Discussing the matter, McWade said: “I had never mentioned the matter of the rug to Mr. Peirce since he left Can- ton with it. It was practically a new rug at the time, it having been present- ed to me by a friend in Canton. When it was returned by a colored messenger last night an examination showed that it was badly moth eaten and otherwise damaged, almost beyond recognition. No note or message aecompanied it. There was merely a piece of note paper attached to it, the paper bearing the heading of ‘The Third Assistant Secre- tary of State,’ and on it was written, in ink, my name and home address.”’ Mr. Peirce said: “While in Canton I bought a lot of Chinese tea tables, which fit one into the other, and on these tables I de- sired the manufacturer to print my name in Chinese characters. I was compelled to depart from Canton al- most at once, and this work could not be completed for some time.

Ath- letic Meet Buried Under Wreckage.

PANIC APTER ACCIDENT

Many Trampled in Wild Rush to Escape From Totter- ing Stand. BUSHNELL, Il, May 6.—A hundred persons were injured, two probably fa- tally, when a grandstand containing be- tween 2000 and 3000 persons crashed to the ground during an athletic meet at Astoria yesterday afternoon. The ac- cident was followed by a panic, and in the wild rush to escape from the totter- ing stand many were“trampled. All the physicians who were on the ground at the. time were pressed into service, Miss Ethel Tingley of Avon and Ar- thur Franz of Vermont are not expected to survive their injuries. Franz has been unconscious since the accident. The athletic meet was being conduct- ed by the Fulton County High School and the large grandstand that collapsed was but a temporary structure for the occasion. Bivery available seat in the stand was filled; and the great weight was too much of a strain. | Buried Under Debris. The games were just about to begin when there was a loud crash and the great stand was piled in a twisting and’ tumbling mass on the _ ground. The shrieks and cries of the injured were heard everywhere, and a force of mem and boy volunteers were kept busy carrying the wounded away. Many were buried under the timbers of the fallen structure, and a great deal of difficulty was encountered freeing them. r The injured were carried to one side and all the doctors who could be sum- moned to the scene were called, and for hours they labored over the in- jured. The news of the accident spread rapidly over the country and crowds of anxtous parents awaited the spe- cial train that came along the line toward Bushnell, inquiring for the welfare of their children.

The express train, westbound, for St. Louis and Chicago, was sent Out reversed, the leading and the locomotive next to a’ passenger coach, in which were 25 passengers.

they increase the taste for trivial fiction and for | reading that means mere dissipation in its final re- sults. - The charge is not justified by the purposes of any public library. While it is true that much light and trivial fiction circulates in response to public demand for it, the effort’ of the public librarian is to turn the demand in the direction of what is sound and wholesome. / As far as this effort succeeds, the annual increase in the number of books issued for home reading marks an increase of power in the community. As far as it fails it is one of the worst failures of the | community. Dissipation in the company of dissi- pated men is growing more restricted as a method of waste, but the possibilities of dissipated books for increasing waste increases with every revolution of the printing press which spoils good white paper to make a book which need not be wicked in order to be worthless.

= = — | LETTERS FROM THE PEOPLE | GOV. FOLK’S ELECTION BILL. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. The revised election bill, drafted by Gov. Folk, deserves respectful consideration because it favors home rule and because we need a better law to stop cheating. The home rule feature of the bill, providing for the selection of supervisors by the Municipal As- sembly, is a recognition of the principle of local self- government, thus permitting the pegple to better par- ticipate in the administration of public affairs at home, and to this extent lessen government at long range. That the voters may register amy time except within 60 days immediately prior to election day cer- tainly gives the careless citizen ample time to regis- ter. That the names of all the candidates be placed on one ticket is a very good way to prevent stuffing the ballot box. With ballots as big as a newspaper this could not be done without beifg caught. ith the narrow paper strips for party tickets it is an easy matter to start a rough house, and while the disturbance is in progress for the clever fellow to stuff the box. One set of regular registration books are enough. It is not necessary to have an extra set of primary books. With respect to punishing offend- ers. all should be treated alike, the officials in the polling place, the voter and others. The principal, accessories before or after the fact, should all suffer imprisonment for not less than five years, leaving it to the jury to increase the pena according to the gravity of the crime.

C. . Legends say that the soldier ran the 2% miles clad in armor, made the lorious announcement and fell dead. hey ran the Olympic Marathon over the exact road last Tuesday. It was won by William Sherring of Hamilton, Canada. It is an odd coincidence that A .eam- mate of Sherring, Irving Elliott, should be a starter and a favorite to win In this M. A. C. Marathon. Elliott ts from Hamilton and ran Sherring.a hard race to Atho-ns, but was beaten. They say that tnere is little to choose between him and Sher- rin Louis Marks, a Chicago man, is thought well of.

His best races have been his third in. the Olympic Marathon at the World's Fair and his 80-mile run from Milwaukee to Chicago, a distance of more than 80 miles in 23 hours. Sam ‘Hatch of Chicago is another erack who will be in Saturday's race, who has competed in an international Marathon. Hatch finished eighth in the revival of the historic race ut the World's Fair grounds, and last year ran second to Forshaw in the local Marathon. Louis Marks of Chicago finished sec- ond in the Boston Marathon in 1905. and finished second in the Marathon of the New Illinois Athletic Club at Chi- cago last year. on Weir of the Missouri Athletic Club has the best record of any of the Jocal boys. who will start in the race. He has been running in distance races ‘about St. Louis for three years, and {is expected to give a good account of him- self in Saturday’s great race. Other local boys entered in the race are Irvin Delporte of the Olvmpic Ath- letic Club:’ Walter Zeitler, unattached; Charles 8S. Brown, unattached, and Frank Hemmeter of the Missouri Ath- letic Club.

It was found impossible to obtain six clubs from the various local electrical houses at the present time, as was at first contemplated. Hence it was de- cided to open the season with four clubs. It was decided to name this league the Electrical Baseball League. The fol- lowing officers were elected: W. M. Walsh, president; H. T. Bussman, vice- president and secretary. The schedule as set forth by Mr. Walsh was accepted, which provides for each club playing 18 games, the season to open May 5 and close Sept. 1. It was decided to open the season on Dolan’s grounds, located at Tamm and Clayton avenues, and Steger’s grounds, located at Manchester road and King’s highway. The following special rules were adopted: In case any games are postponed on account of rain, darkness or for any other reason whatever, these games are to be played at the close of the season, provided such games would effect the standing of the teams in any way. No club is to have any players who are not in the employ of that company with the exception of the Commercial Electric Supply Co.'s club, who were allowed three outside players. 2. a a ee nee eee DR.

At the Stadium, Washington Univer- S'LY will oppose the Concordia Seminary team, one of the crack nines of the city.

The showing of*the North Sid- ers this season has been the sensation of the year among devotees of school athletics. They began their season by losing a close game to the strong C. B. C. team by the score of 5 to 3. Next, they defeated Central and lost to Mc- Kinley. 1 n@ later game they beat tne South Siders by the score of 9 to 8. While not as strong or capable an or- ganization as Smith, which is technical- ly not considered in interscholastic or- ganization, despite the fact that it is a member of the league, Yeatman should give Kansas City High a hard game. The Kaw City boys have already one victory over a St. Louis high schoo] in athletics, having defeated Central last November by the score of 11 to 6 at football. Washington is fortunate in having an aggressive player like Benecke to com- mand its fortunes on the field. Ben- ecke, played with Washington last year, when the Myrtle and Maroon had a real baseball team. Such stars as Title and Anderson were members of that organ- ization and the prowess of this battery was known and feared throughout the State: Benecke has played every posi- tion on the diamond and excels in infiel play and pitching. The winners in the preliminaries of the Washington University tennis tourn- ament concluded Friday were Hunt, Goodbar, Barry, Calhoun, Patton, Schaumberg and Wright. Judging from the form displayed in the recent round, Calhoun, last year’s champion, will probably again annex the Myrtle and Maroon tennis honors. Goodbar, Pat- ton and Pritchard should: afford him the warmest competition. The contests in doubles will be held Saturday. Tuesday and Wednesday the semi-finals of both classes will be held. Mackey and Fullerton of the Wash- ington team, which competes against Rolla School of Mines at Rolla, Mo., Saturday, are expected to win both places in the hurdles. Lehman has the best record in prac- tice of any of the State candidates who put the shot and throw the discus. Washington University’s field day is scheduled for May 11, and May 19 the Pikeway boys will go to Columbia, Mo., and attempt to twist the Tiger's tail on track and field.

B. | for Winner of the Great Greek Marathon Race WiLL TAs 4 William Sherring, who won the great Greek Marathon race, was the Canadian in the event. The race started from Marathon at 3. o’clock, and finished at the Stadium at Athens, where all the Olympic con- tests have been held. The _ distance of the race was 26 miles, and the course was a rather hard one, as the hills are very steep and rough. The last six miles of the course is pretty good footing, and is down grade. It is estimated that 150,000 people saw the race, the Stadium being packed and the course lined with people. What makes Sherring’s victory all the more notable is the fact that he went to Greece without the assistance of a trainer. He traveled the entire jour- ney alone and trained without the as- sistance of anyone. Sherring’s Record. 897 1897. Third in five-mile race at Bartonville Fair. Third in Dundas race, 10 miles.

Prearess. ; —Shakspeare, Henry IV. Reading a communication from a Raven Rooter, recently printed in this column once more provokes me to animadvert upon the lack of energy, conse- cration, application, resource, initlative and general advancement shown by baseball players. To the great shame of the players Oftoday it must be said that baseball has advanced not at all in the past 15 years, certainly not at all In the past . During this period all other sports and business have improved immeasurably . We have developed the crouching start in running. We are throwing well six feet farther than we were in 1890. We have cut seconds off the h Football has been improved to death. The crouch has come in boxing, the toe hold in wrestling. Horses are running faster. We have added to the speed of the runner and trotter. Swimmers and oarsmen are much than they were a decade ago. Golf, inall countries, has improved imm ly. The same applies to methods and practices of play and business lines save baseball. i‘ Truly, I cannot see that the great ball teams of today could beat Louls, Chicago, Boston and New York teams of the middie ‘80s. Not in or accuracy of *movement, initiative, resource or execution of play. Now, why? | Experience and much consideration leads me to lay the fault at the of the men who own and manage clubs. : Twenty years ago Tom Eck, a nofed allround athlete, wanted to that is physically fit—the Chicago players for A. G. Spalding, himself a of experience and a man whose ability has made him a millionaire. ° refused to have his players trained. Ten years ago Spalding paid Eck handsomely to train the professional) cy- cling team which advertised his wheel business. Results achieved led him te say to Eck that he regretted his refusal to the offer to train his ball players very much. I have always held that the properties of baseball are little more than developed. s Improper physical fitting is the first and not the least of baseball cgtta- quencies. Baseball players are not trained at all. | Let us take the case of Pitcher Powell. Fiaccid, fat and lethargie, he was permitted to fit himself as he pleased. Of course, he was supposed to wen dition himself. It was to his interest to do so. It is to the interest of all athletes to do so. But how many of them will do so of their own voli ? Suppose, instead of being his own master, Powell was governed by a na who bade him do this and that and saw that he did it. Suppose he was told to run and walk so far, to eat and drink such and such and made to it? Suppose, instead of being allowed to exercise as h2 pleased and eat and drink as he pleased, Powell were compelled to run and walk 10 miles morning and afternoon and curb his appetite? Made to do it: not advised? ee Why; he would be in condition and-would have made $2500 more for his - employer than he has made in the past three weeks. ; Baseball players are. not trained. Nor are they given practice at play any mcre than physically fitted for keen athletic exertion. . I have seen a sprinter made to practice starts for hours. I have never seen a baliplayer compelled to practice any special branch of his art, that is not given pointed and vigorous practice at t. oe True it is that keen, energetic players like Howell, Burkett, etc., practice of their own volition and after their own fancy. But how about the lazy fel- lows? : Many great athletes, indeed, the greatest, have been too energetic. Their trainers have been compelled to restrain their energy. Upon the other hand, many champions ha¥e been driven like @taves. ~ Managers of team& do not fit baseball players physically. Neither de they ask that more than 65 per cent of their ability be used in their service.” ~ If teams played fpdtball, if men raced horses, if they golfed or shot or ran or jumped with aslittle preparation, study, practice or precision as they play baseball, these pastimes would be lacking % per cent of their present high development. cae : First condition baseball players, then compel them to espec practice to perfect any particular individual weaknesses, then to study and develop play and the great game of the Americans—more entrancing and more worthy man's — study than any other of the ball games—will be improved at least % per cent. Baseball is 20 years tehing other gimes and the times. it is where if was in 1886. : General progress, an improvement In all lines of athletic businesses teaches us that this is not right or reasonable, And managers of baseball teams and their employers.are to blame. They are lethargic and lack progressive intelligence. They are clogs upon the wheels of progress. | ee The last important improvement in baseball took place in 1894, 12 years ago, when Mr. Hanlon introduced the fashion of small fast men playing the - bunting, sharp-hitting, base-running game.

BILL PRAISED BY ROOSEVELT President Says Senator's Amendment Should Be Part of ee Measure. 7. A COMPLETE SURRENDER

But the President would like, ff, in addition to the Allison amendment, the so-called Long and Overman amendments were ado ted. While the President regards hese amendments’ with favor and would like to see them adopted, he does not in the least regard them as vital, and feels that the Hepburn bill wuld still be in excellent shape, even without them.”’ Roosevelt Surrenders. amendment, DETRACKED AT dd, HE ENDS LIFE Failure to Get Work Made Fritsche Believe Osler Theory. Gustav E. Fritsche, 58 years old, a recluse and a believer in the Osler theory, shot himself to death in his room at 1810 Olive street. The report of the pistol was timed with the ex- plosion of dynamite used in wrecking the old cable conduit along Olive Street, and did not attract attention, So that the body was not found for 10 hours after *the shot is Isupposed to have been fired.

President Roosevelt completely and fin- ally surrendered to the railroad interests in the matter of a broad judicial review amendment to the Hepburn rate bill. He protests that the amendment written by Senator Allison—and on which all the Republican senators but Mr. La Fol- lette will agree, thereby making the rate bill a party measure—provides for a review of the most limited character, but all the expert lawyers of the Sen- ate accept the Allison amendment as the broadest provision yet advanced for — A appeals to the courts. residént sent for a number of his most earnest followers and an- nounced to them that the Allison amendment is perfectly satisfactory to him, and that it will insure the passage of the Hepburn bill, with a few minor changes, as it came from the House. He vehemently denied that this accept- ance is a surrender to the railroad in-. terests, but the construction of the new provision permits exactly the broad ju- jal review for which Senators Al- drich, Crane, Foraker, Elkins and Kean have fought from the first. The Democrats have accepted the Re- + biican agreement as final and Mr. iley eee the Republicans on ‘the tion of harmony, saying he regretted it, asthe minority has thereby lost a a opportunity. The Allison amendment will confer urisdiction upon the circuit courts to ear and determine suits brought against the Interstate Commerce Com- mission. The amendment will not sug- gest to the courts whether their ween review shall be confined to constitution- al questions or whether it shall be an inquiry into the justness or reasonable- ness of rates fixed by the commission. Senator Long, who made the principal legal fight for the House bill, and Sen- ators Aldrich and Crane, the leaders in the movement for a broad review, re- ported themselves as favoring the. amendment. Whether the conservatives or the radicals have won a victory is not disturbing either faction. The agreement, in a measure, is regarded as political. It is believed that now practically the entire Republican stren of t n- ate will be cast for the Dill, under the long-continued estrangement it was conceded that it would require minority. Indorsement to pass the bill, and the Democratic party would be in position to take f full credit for it. GIVES BIG. BOND CRACKS STNG cae attorneys for the estate of E.

ae eral grand jury completed its investiga- tion into sugar rebating by handing @own seven indictments and a present- ment yesterday. ‘The clerk sealed them until the defendants named shafl have been arraigned. It is known, h@wever, that seven in- dictments were returned, The defend- ants are: The New York Central Railway Co. The American Sugar Refining Co. | The New York Central & Hudson Re River Railroad Co. and Nathan Guil- ford, its vice-president. The American Sugar Refining Co. of New York and E. J. atid C.

The first six indictments were found under the “Elkins antitrust law,” which provides penalties of a fine not exceed- ing $10,000 or imprisonment not exceed- ing two years for giving, granting, ap- plying for or accepting any rebate or concession from the regular freight rates of published by a railway com- pany as a common carrier. The seventh indictment found against Guilford,’ Pomeroy, Edgar and Earle, charges them with having collectively conspired to seg 0 the provision of the : antitrust law. PaPnese are the first indictments for an alieged violation of the antitrust law found .in this district. Sixteen sessions of the April grand jury were devoted exclusively to the consideration of these cases, but it is evident from the pre- ‘sentment which the jury handed in with ‘the indictments that it emit the situa- ut hurriedly canvassed, “at i nmnends that the investigation be continued by its successor, intimat- | that indications point to the possi- ty that other common carriers may “be equally culpable with the indicted nerne presentment. addressed to Circuit Judge George C.

The present- ment refers to the large amount of @vi- ae ce considered and the necessity cf ia netrating various skillful disguises” -—s in transacting through - freight (gee ness. - . The presentment says the Gttionities menttone } d the skiliful devices under which decrimination is often veiled may ren- detection and proof of this class of crime difficult. ’ "Nevertheless, it continues, ‘we deem it our duty to call the attention | Of this honorable court and the suc- " @eeding grand jury to the great pubiic mporiance of a continued investigation ' Jato the state of facts upon which the ‘Ggndictments herewith submitted are De to the end that further indict- ments of a like nature may be found " uma other steps taken to mitigate the - @yills, which we believe to be generally fevalent, and which cause great injurv Ml oppression to small shippers, thus nied equal access to markety in in- tate commerce.”’

WIFE’S DIVORCE CASE y=.

John Mathews, Who Acted as His Own Attorney, by His Excit- ability Bore Out Allegations of Wife’s Petition—Denied That He Drank More Than He Should, When John. Mathews undertook to be his own lawyer in the divorce suit of Mrs. Theresa Mathews against him, he unintentionally became the wife's best exhibit. By his excitability he bore out the allegations of the wife. He becamc so boisterous that Judge Douglas nai to threaten to send him to Jail. Mrs. Mathews’ case had been heard on default day. Judge Douglas, not en- tirely satisfied, had continued it in or- der to have the husband brought to court. It came up again Friday after- noon and the husband was very much on hand. While waiting to be called he told his troubles in the corridors to everyone who would listen to him and twice made hostile descents upon Burr S8. Goodman, his wife’s attorney. When his name was called he bounced up, an- swered loudly, ‘‘Here,’’ and strode for- ward, “Your wife charges that you are an habitual drunkard. Is that true?’ asked Attorney Goodman. ‘That is false,’’ exclaimed Mathews. “Do you means tu say that.you never drink?’ “Oh, I take a drink sometimes, like you do.”’ a you have never been. intoxicat- ent. ‘Were you not intoxicated Dec. 10, 905 7°’ “I refuse to answer.’’ “Answer the question,” Douglas. roe Lawyer Tells of Threats. Well, I wasn't. That's why I re- fused to answer.” ‘How many drinks have you hag to- day?” asked Judge Douglas. “None, Your Honor, Judge.’’ ‘He made threats against me twice in the corridor today,” said Attorney Goodman. Mathews sprang excitedly to his feet... Deputy Sheriff Kreh thought he was going to jump at. the lawyer and got ready for action by maneu- vering for a good position. Mathews almost climbed bench in his eagerness to Judge how it was. He then told of having gone to his wife’s home at 2709 Hickory street and of having watched her through the back windows. He said an insur- ance agent was in the house, but he Saw nothing improper. ‘Your wife says vou didn’t support her,’’ said Attorney Goodman Mathews leaned over and pointed im- pressively at his wife’s feet ‘‘She’s got a pair of shoes on there now,” he suid, “that I've got a receipt for in my pocket”’ said wudge on the tell the es, I have been, but not at pres-.

He fumbled for it, but Judge Douglas told him not to mind Several other allegations of his wife were repeated to him “You are mistak- en and so is she,’ was his answer to each He was asked what his condition was on a certain date “The same as it is now,” he said. When Mrs. Mathews came to the stand her husband said: ‘‘Your Honor, Judge, I'd like to ask her some. ques- tions."’ He was told that he might. He took a seat facing her, and when, in answer to a question of her attorney, she told how he had acted on one occasion, Mathews threw himself back. in his chair and let loose a rolling ‘Haw, haw !’’ “You do that again and I'll send you to Jail,”’ said Judge Douglas soulfully. “You behave yourself.”’ ‘I'm trying to, your Honor, Judge,’’ said Mathews. A little later he was moved to mirth but he thought of jail right quick and. stuffed his fist into his mouth. and coughed dramatically to fool the Judge. When jAjs trun came to examine tne witness he gazed fixedly at his wife. “Mrs. Mathews,” he said, “on the 22d of February, 1906, who was you out with?’’ : ‘*‘Nobody,”’ “You wads out to an entertainment with another gentleman all right.” “If you -want to testify you can go on the stand,’’ said Judge Douglas. “You say you was ‘not out with any- one?”’ "ae? Wife Denies Flirting. “Not with the insurance man, your cousin, you call him?” **No.”’ “On March 21 wasn’t you and the insurance man sitting in the front room?” “No.’’ ‘ “And wasn’t you sitting on the sofa, you and him?” oe ey “And didn’t he have his arm around you?" “Certainly not.” : “That's all that’s necessary, Honor.” Mathews cross-questioned several witnesses who were called to testify about his habits. He insisted on them telling how they knew he was drunk on the occasions they mentioned. He called his sister, Mrs. Mary Chris- topher, to testify to things Mra. Mathews had said about him. When Judge Douglas took the casa under advisement, Mathews stalked out of the courtroom, exclaiming so that Mrs. Mathews cduld hear him: Your

Women in Our Hospitals

,

Going through the hospitals in our large cities one is. surprised to find such a large proportion of the patients lying on those snow-white beds women and girls, who are either awaiting or recovering from serious operations. Why should this be the case? Sim- ply because they have neglected them- selves. Womanly ills are certainly on the increase among the women of this country—they creep upon them una- wares, but every one of those patients in the hospital beds had plenty of warn- ing in that pain at left or right of ab- domen, nervous exhaustion, pain in the small of the back, dizziness, flatulency. All of these symptoms are indications of an unhealthy condition of the female organs, and if not heeded the penalty has to be paid by a dangerous opera- tion. When these symptoms manifest themselves, do not drag along until you are obliged to go the hospital and submit to an operation—but remember that Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound has saved thousands of wo- men from surgical operations. When women are troubled with weak- ness, inflammation, backache, bloating gestion, and nervous prostration, or are beset with such symptoms as dizziness, lassitude, excitability, irritability, nerv- ousness, sleeplessness, melancholy, “all-gone” and “want-to-be-left-alone” feelings, they should remember there is one tried and true remedy.

Appalling Increases in the Number of Operations Performed Each Year—How Women May Avoid The following letters cannot fail to bring hope to despairing women: Miss Ruby Mushrush, of East Chica- go, Ind., writes: . Dear Mrs..-Pinkham :— “TIT have been a great sufferer from organic trouble, and about three months ago the doc- tor, after using the X-Ray on me, said I had an abcess and would have to have an opera- tion, My mother wanted me to try Lydia B. Pinkham'’s Vegetable Compound as a last re- sort, and {it not only saved me from an opera- tion, but made me entirely well.’’ Mrs. Alice Berryhill, of 313 Boyce Street, Chattanooga, Tenn., writes: Dear Mrs. Pinkham:— ‘ ‘‘Threé years ago life looked dark to me. I had ulceration and inflammation and was in a serious condition. ~~ ‘‘My health was completely broken down, and the doctor told me that if I was not op- erated upon I would die within six months. I told him I would have no operation but would try Lydia 5. Pinkham'’s Vegetable Compound. He tried to influence me against it, but I sent for the medicine that same and began to use it faithfully. Within five days I felt relief but was not entirely cured until I used it for some time. ‘Your medicine is certainly fine. I have induced several friends and neighbors to take it, and I know more than a who had organic troubles and who today are as well and strong as I am from using your Vege- table Compound,”’ : Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Com- pound at once removes such troubles. Refuse to buy any other medicine, for you need the best. Mrs. Pinkham, daughter-in-law of Lydia E. Pinkham, invites all sick wom- en to write her for advice. Her advice and medicine have restored thousands % | to health. Address Lynn, Mass. Lydia E.
