The incorporation of a provision along the lines proposed by Mr. Bacon, that preliminary Etomations must be con- curred in by at least two judges. The incorporation of a provision that an appeal may be taken directly from the Cirenit Court to the Supreme Court of the United States.

AURORA, Mo., May 8.—George Feas- ‘ter, a one-legged miner, shot and killed his former’ wife yesterday afternoon and, after terrorizing the neighborhood for over fifteen minutes, lay down be- side her and shot himself to death. Forty-one hours 12 minutes, including | Oakland Pier to Omaha is | but he did not believe the statement | and pushed his way inside. As soon 4s he saw his former wife he drew a, ré- volver and fired three shots at her. One of them entered her left temple and she fell to the floor dead. Theit child was playing about on the floor at the time and Feaster picked it up and carried it to the home of .a neighbor. In the meantime Mrs. Huston and the other members of the familye had hur- ried from the house, the violent mar. having declared that he intended to kill Huston and his eldest son. The men were away, working in the mines, how- ever. After standing in the yard for 10 or 15 minutes, Feaster re-entered the house and lay down by the side of the dead ‘body of his victim. Placing the muzzle of the revolver to his left tem- ple, he pulled the trigger and was killed instantly. Feaster was a miner and had but one leg, having lost the. other in an accident in the mines. On account of his insane jealousy they had parted two years ago and she secured a divorce. Since then he claimed, she had been receiving at- tentions from other men.

PRADE BLAMES WIFE FOR Member cf West End Family Is Accused of Theft of Typewriters.

SEPARATED FROM WIFE

“Injury in Baseball Game Has Caused Hallucinations, Prisoner Says. Suffering from mental aberration, as a result of being hit on the head with & baseball bat about a year ago, Frank Prade, college student and professional baseball player, is at the City Hospital, held for observation. This is the third time that Prade has been at Hospital under one name or another, one time escaping from the Emergency Hospital by sliding down a dumb-waiter rope to visit his child-wife, who had at- tempted suigide after his arrest. ' Prade is accused by the police of a neat echeme in stealing typewriters. He was picked up Monday evening on Olive street, between Twenty-first and Twen- ty-second streets. He stoutly denies guilt and blames his downfall! in part to his wife, from whom he is separated, and who now resides in Bonne Terre, Mo. Prade, as a student of St. Louis Uni- versity, attained some prominence as a baseball player, and his services were greatiy in demand by amateur and semi- professional teams in and about 8t.

On Sundays he played ball, anl one day at Bonne ‘Terre, Mo., he met May Thomas. The girl, an ardent admirer of baseball, fell in love with Prade, who played ball under the name of Pardce. In November of 1904 the pair eloped to

Prade heard of the attempt and slid ;}down the ropes of dumb waiter in the i\Emergency Hospital, vaulted the wall land made his way to his wife’s side. -He was arrested there the same day while talking to his wife. | On March 81, 1906, Prade, under the ‘name of Frank Pratt, was again brought ito the City Hoepital. He was charged by his wife with beating her on the street. She had him taken to the hos- pital but he was re- for observation, leased. Judge Pollard fined him $25, but stayed the fine. Separated From Wife. Prade and his wife separated, and ‘he signed a contract to play baseball with the Leavenworth, Kanh., team of the Western Association. He says he was taken sick while with the Leavenworth team and was forced to return home. This was a few days ago. Prade said to a Post-Dispatch reporter Teusday: “When am totally those spells come on me, I unaware of anything I do. T am as if in a trance. My halluci- nations as a rule are about baseball. I imagine that I a mat the bat and all sorts of things. | cannot see how I could possibly have been accused of stealing typewriters. “Love for my wife, too, has had a igood deal to do with my downfall.

HE CAN DODGE VISITORS

His Comings and Goings Can Now Be Done Secretly and Quietly. Carpenters are at work in the May- or’s office constructing a little pri- vate doorway leading to the corridor and incidentally curtailing some of the privileges of the omniscient Sec- retary McConkey. Heretofore Mr. Wells has been com- pelled to make all his exits and en- trances under the watchful eye of Mr. McConkey. On entering the door marked “MAYOR” every morning, the first thing he sees is the tall form of the busy secretary looming up be- hind his huge sprawling desk, that is set back of the double line of railings. When he leaves at noon and in the afternoon, Mr. McConkey looks and greets him with his own individual sinile. But now the Mayor will be able to slip out of his private office and no one be the wiser but his own private stenographer, who is supposed to have eyes that see not, Can Escape Visitors. Not only will Mr. Wells escape Mr. Conkey’s glance, but he will get by those who are waiting for him in the room just north of his office. With the present itors in this room would.be by drop- ping to the yard, a distance of twenty feet or more. Now he may leave them sitting there for two or three hours and they will not know whether he is deliberating on some weighty mu- nicipal problem in his office.or is tak- ing a lemonade outside with one of the heads of departments, The door is being built in the wall between the Mayor’s' private office and the little hallway that separates his office from the outer office, where, Mr. McConkey presides over a police sergeant, a stenographer, a page and any chance unfortunates who have not succeeded in getting into the Mayor's waiting room. Once in this hallway the Mayor can slip through a door leading directly into the corridor. Also the door is being built to permit better vantilation in the Mayor's office. WEATHER INDICATIONS.

JUDGE ANGERED BY JURY VERDICT Rejects Acquittal of Assessor Charged With Neglect of Jury Duty. Special to the Poet-Dispatch. PHILADELPHIA, Pa., May &.—Judge Wiltbank yesterday administered a stinging rebuke to one of those juries which are disposed to pass lightly up- on offenses against the election laws and render verdicts contrary to the evidence and the law. The judge indignantly refused to ac- cept a verdict of ‘not guilty’’ from a jury which had listened to the case against Hugo Duffy, an assessor, who was charged with willful neglect of jury duty. The judge had instructed the jury to find a verdict of guilty, but the jury returned one of acquittal. The judge thought there was some misapprehension on their part as to the instructions he had given them and again explained the casé to them. He then polled the jury and every one an- swered ‘“‘not gullty.”’ “T will not accept the verdict,” saig Judge Wiltbank indignantly. The jury is discharged.”’ . Loves Children, | Left Home.

SCIENTISTS. SEEK MAGIC MIRROR Strange Looking-Glass Said to | Picture Events Before They Occur, OWNED BY RICH WOMAN

Reputable Persons in Washing- ton, D. C., Testify to Mirror’s Feats, By Wire From the Washington Bureau of the Post-Dispatch. WASHINGTON, May 8.—There is a magic mirror here that a number of psychological societies in the United States have been trying to buy. The mirror is supposed to have come origi- nally from the temple of Aloradmalora in the Himalaya Mountains, where a monastery of ascetic monks devoted their time to the development of sychic powers. It is oolong in shape, about a foot and a half in length and a foot in width. When first taken up it appears to be perfectly opaque, but it is really com- posed. of two parts—first a black, wood- en frame about three inches wide and within highly polished glass, which is perfectly black. This color is given it by having the back thickly painted with asphaltum, The mirror was originally owned by Dr. Leroy Taylor, who was one of the richest men in'the city. He got it from a wealthy woman who had spent much of her life in foreign travel. Dr. Taylor was a student of the occult, and made extensive researches in psychology. His library, now owned by the Scottish Rite Temple, is one of the most valuable in existence. Dr. Tavlor, just before his death, gave the mirror to a Mrs. Gor- don, who lives in Tenth street, between M and WN streets. It is from her that societies have been to purchase the glass. Prophecies in Visions, A person who wishes to consult the mirror goes into a room by himself and holds it in his lap at an angle which meets the eye without causing a reflection on the polished surface. It is claimed that if the user possess- es any psychic power there will ap- pear on it a flimy white cloud, which will pass across and disappear in the frame, while out of the mist will ap- ;Pear faces and scenes of happenings which are to occur, There are many persons living here who claim to have seen visions in the mirror—prophecies which have later been verified in every particular. The late Judge Caswell of California while visiting at the home of Dr. Taylor looked in the mirror and saw the face of a near relative then living in Pittsburg. He was struck by the pe- culiar way in which the hair was combed back off the forehead. Two weeks later Judge Caswell was at the funeral of this relative and saw that the hair was combed back in exactly the same manner as it had been shown him by the mirror. Mrs. Gordon, looking in the mirror recently, saw the picture of a house on fire near a river. The next day a telegram was received saying that the home of Dr. Taylor’s son on the Po- tomac River had burned the day be- fore. Dr. Taylor’s two little grandchildren Saw the face of their dead grand. mother and recognized it in the mir- ror.

Book Before She Could Scream. S-ecial to the Post-Dispatch. WASHINGTON, May 8.—The_ sixth of white women by negroes occurred North- of the robbery within the last ten days near Eleventh and M streets, west, almost the very center city. Miss Mary Giese of 1313 Twelfth street was halted by a negro and her pocketbook, containing $3 and a pass- hook on a savings bank, were taken from her. The young woman was too surprised at first to scream, and be- fore she recovered her voice the ne- sro had fled. She reported the matter to the po- lice and later William Davis, a negro “5 years old, was arrested. He was partially identified by Miss Giese as the man who had robbed her.

The Presbyterian Ministerial Asso- ciation is considering what action to take since the exclusion of its dele- gate from the Central Trades and La- bor Union by a vote of 61 to 42, Rev. E. W.

Four or five outlaws still have smal! followings. They live in the mountains, and at times they make raids upon the na- tives who live in the valleys and who are engaged in the peaceful) pursuit of cultivating their lands. These outlaws swoop down upon the people in the val- leys, destroy their crops, run off with their caribou and steal their women. “The outlaws are excessively cruel and fanatical, and always maintain 2 handful of followers. They make 4 to ' the proper kind of ambition, and I would have contempt for a man who did aot entertain such noble ideas. But the ed- ucated class of the Philippines appre- ciate the fact that their people are not yet capable of governing themselves. ‘“We are teaching these people the art of government. We are ‘educating them. We have taken two distinct steps in this direction of self-government. hey now elect their municipal officers and the governments of the cities are

administered by the natives. This 1s also true of the provincial officials. These people have done remarkably well in administering their local govern- ments. Now we are preparing to per- mit them to have something to say regarding the administration of the cen- tral government. “A census has been taken, and what will correspond to our House of Repre- sentatives will be elected in a few months. There will be representatives from each of the provinces in this pop- ular house. ‘The Philippine Commission, which consists of three Filipinos and four Americans, will correspond to. our Senate. The Governor General must or disapprove the legislation adopted by these two legislative bodies. The creation of a legislative assembly will teach the people a great deal about the art of government and I believe this will be greatly beneficial to them. The character of the representatives will be high. “This will be the first time that the approve

The Gedge shop sold antique doors. The idea of its establishment is said to nave originated with Khodes and he was a large stockholder in the enter- prise.

MAYOR FURNISHES ARMS Mandidate on Their Ticket, He Makes No Effort to Stop Riots. TROOPS GUARD CONSULS Families Appeal in- Vain to United States for Protection, —_—-—— — --—- NEW YORK, May 8.—Cabling under yesterday's! date, the Herald's corre- spondent at Pointe a Pitre, where is lo- eated the American Consulate for the Island of Guadeloupe, French West In- dies, describes the rioting that followed | the elections of Sunday as they occurred at that place. Barly advices from Basseterre, capital, told of the killing of M. the Bois- ~ neuf, a candidate for re-election to the General Council. of two Socialists and the wounding of a customs officer dur- ing an attack upon Boisneuf's home. The Herald's correspondent says: The mob is in full control of city, the police having joined in destruction of private buildings. scenes are indescribable. Rioting began at 1 o'clock in the aft- ernoon yesterday—election day. One candidate was attacked while in __his house, surrounded by his family and friends. They defended themselves des- perately. Two persons were killed and many wounded, among whom were a fireman and a policeman, both acting with the mob. The Mayor of the city had furnished arms to the police and firemen, which they used wildly. Marines Watch Destruction. Despite the presence of marines, land- ed from the cruiser Von Troude, houses were sacked. Stones were thrown at the marines, who stood motionless watching the destruction. The Mayor, Chief Jus- tice and other authorities were present, but made no effort to restore order. The situation can thus be defined: ‘Pwo parties oppose each other here, ihe Liberals and the Socialists. The latter are controlled the Mayor, M. Legitimus, who is running on their tick- et for Deputy. They declare that all persons who are not Socialists must be destroyed, with their property. Many who were attacked in the streets were to kneel down and cry “Vive la Sociale’ or run the risk of being beaten to death. Authorities, civillan and mil- itary, are protecting the Socialists. Troops Guard Consulates. Whole families have lost all hope and are sending their valuables to the vari- ay consulates that are protected by roops, all the consuls having demanded rotection from the Governor. The "nited States Consul is besieged by peaceful persons imploring protection that he cannot give. Two more buildings were destroyed Monday.

An officer of the Jefferson Club, who doesn't want his name printed. wrote this analysis of last Saturday's pri- mary election: “Not the least remarkable feature of the election is the variety of queer meanings which are ascrfbed to it. In my opinion, the election proves that the pawer of the Butler forces, so-calléd, is fast waning in the lwelfth District, with the phvsical de- cline of the ‘Old Man;’ that the St. Louis Democratic Club has made a rank failure in its first flight into primary politics, that ‘Jimmy’ Miles is a man to be reckoned with in the Kleventh District, and that the South St. Louis brewers, who have fought each other in the past for control of the Tenth District, have buried hatchet in the cause of “Like all State primaries, it was a fight by Congressional districts. The Butler forces and the St. Louis Demo- cratic Club are but one factor in one district, which, heretofore, Butler has been supposed to own. ‘““As to the Jefferson Club, enough is said when it is noted that ward com- nmritteemen of our organization were suc- cessful with or without opposition in the following wards: First Ward, Sheridan; Second, y: Fourth, Mike Kinney; Sixth, Guion; Seventh, Bilhartz; Eighth, Langeneckert; Ninth, Wagner: Tenth, Kunz; Twelfth, Weinge; Thirteenth, Flynn; Fifteenth, Crow; Seventeenth, Quinn; Eighteenth, Durnin; Nineteenth, Raney; Twentieth, Ward; Twenty-first. Mulvihill; Twenty-second, Daly; Twen- ty-third, Clooney; Twenty-fourth, Ha- ney: Twenty-seventh, Gill; Twenty- eighth, Prendergast; a total of 21 wards out of 28. All but two of these men are also members .of the Democratic City Central Committee. “Of.the wards not in this list, ‘Jim- my’ Miles controls the Third and S8ix- teenth; Butler the Fifth, Fourteenth and Twenty-fifth and Dwyer the Twen- ty-sixth. In the Eleventh Ward, O'Neill, the committeeman, who had.no opposi- tion, no longer represents the Jefferson Club as a ward man, but he stands with the other South St. Louis committée- men. How Clubs Came Out. “If the St. Louis Democratic Club can get any consolation, must less any lory, out of these facts, it is welcome. The Jefferson Club took no active part in the primary election, but lived up to its principle to limit its aggressive work to general elections. “The St. Louis Democratic Club, on the other hand, worked at least as hard, if not harder, than in a general election. “In. the Twelfth District, which But- ler has always heretofore controlled ab- solutely, and inywhich he has never had cpposition, all one the line, the prim- ary shows that Butler’s strength, strip- ed of all alliances, is limited to the ifth, Fourteenth and Twenty-fifth Wards, and he would never have car- ried the Twenty-fifth but for the heip of Dr. Simon, who was willing to make any kind of an alliance to humble Mayor Wells in his home ward. “Billy: Flynn, whom the Butler forces sought to overwhelm for not lining up with them, proved himself to be actual- ly as strong as Butler by the victories over Butler in the Sixth, Thirteenth and Twenty-third Wards. As a matter of fact, Flynn is much stronger, because the Fiynn wards have 21 votes in the State convention, and the Butler wards only 13. ; “If the Butler forces succeed in de- feating Flynn for the State Committee, they can only do so by making alliances, and they have shown too much weak- ness to make successful alliances. The lose of the Twenty-second and Twenty- third wards was a solar plexus blow for the Butler forces. “In the Eleventh Congressional Dis- trict, ‘Jimmie’ Miles is the strongest individual developed in the'primary. He is said to represent the 8t. Louis Demo- eratic Club. As a matter of fact ‘Jim- mie’ is too self-centered to represent anyone but himself. He will have him- self elected State Committeeman, he will try to replace Justice Cullinane, under whom he now serves as Consta- ble, and he will even try to have a voice'in naming at least one man on the State ticket this fall: Kinney Holds Three Wards. “Senator Kinney does not appear to have asserted himself actively in any contested ward in the city. The ten votes uf the Fourth Ward will play an important part in the election of the State Committeemen in the Twelfth District. He will be nearly as power- ful as Butler, with his 13 votes in three ey “Kinney undoubtedly was a factor bringing about harmony between neil oy Lamp and Steuver in South St. Louie’ but the ‘lid’ also was a factor in this. It is too much to say that in return Senator Kinney will control the South St. Louis delegations. The brewers will eontrol them to the end that the ‘lid’ may not be pressed down any harder “Gov. Folk did not figure in the pri: mary election, as State administrations have in the past. His apnointees« and personal representatives, if they took a hand at all, did not co-operate with each other, and were defeated The Governor gets credit for keeping hands off, but nefther he nor his representa. tives will have much fo say as to how St. Louis delegations will vote jn 1) State conventions. eS “The Democratic primary ray of hope to the discordant cane fad ee in on, e fact that no element is cry ing ‘fraud’ in the pri: , ieee ten Primary is «a good - AGENTS’ REPORTS. gives no Republi- the general elec- the | self-defense | for reasons which suggest themselves, !

NEW YORK, May 8—A syndicute of American multi-millionaires, which will rebuild an earthquake-proof city from the ruins of San Francisco, was formed tentatively at a meeting of financiers here yesterday. The promoters plan to subscribe amounts which are expected to aggregate in, the neighborhood of $400,000,000, and the financial standing of the men interested seems to assure suc- cess. Among those who attended the meet- ing are Senator Francis Newlands of Nevada, who, with Frank A. Vanderlip of the National City Bank, represented the Rockefeller interests; President H. S. Black of the United States Realty and Construction Co., Thomas ‘A. Mc- Gee of the San Francisco Relief Fund Finance Committee and Frankiin§ K. Lane of San Francisco. Although the discussion of the plan to rebuild Frisco was purely formal, it was the general opinion that sufficient funds could be subscribed to rebuild practical- ly the entire area ruined by the earth- quake or destroyed by fire. It was de- clared that at least $250,000,000 could be raised from the interests represented by the conferees, and that the total couid be increased to $50,000,000 or $400,000,000 if necessary. The tentative plans include the erec- tion of earthquake-proof structures, 80 far as possible, and for the creation of boulevards and parks which shall ren- der the city practically fireproof. Newlands Explains Project. Commenting last night on the meet- ing, Senator Newlands, one of the prime tnovers in the project, said: “We met today for the purpose of conferring as to the form of organiza- tion and selecting legal advisors who are to work out our plan. I do not wish to state the exact complexion of the corporation which we believe will be formed. It is enough at the pres- ent time to assert that it will be founded upon the broadest and sound- est principles; will be an investment which: will prove attractive not only to the banker and great capitalist, but also to the people at large, who scek a profitable investment for their sav- ings. ; “The pla does not guaranty of the City of or the State of California, for we be- lieve the realty of San Francisco will involve any be ample guarantee and security for}. all money invested in the country. “The plan, broadly, is to incorporate, enabling subscribers to create a fund which shall be used through the agents of the corporation resident In San Francisco, in lending money upon the realty, which is worth as much today as on the day before the earth- quake. Realty Titles Intact. [It is well Rnown that the records of realty were preserved intact and that ti- tles are perfect. Ready money should be available before the great bulk of the insurance policies are paid over. As to whether the corporation will be limited to a short term of years or will be made practically perpetual as a permanent in- vestment I cannot say. *Sultable laws will be passed and the people are enthusiastically going ahead. Not a dissenting voice will be raised to any arrangement which may be de- manded. which shall be fair, in the line of safeguarding investments. San Fran- cisco does not come here a suppliant, but offering a legitimate investment, which is a good thing and will take rank at the top of financial properties. The concerns with which I am connected are in a position to finance their own re- habilitation. This plan looks to the general restoration.” “] desire also to say ciseo is already moving,” said Mr. Lane. “The damage wrought by the earth- aguake did not exceed $3.000.000.

Rice, a member of the commission, which was held up by the Governor April 1, because. he was informed that it contained items of ex- pense which had not been incurred, The Governor stated at that time that the matter had been referred to the At- torney-General for an opinion. After a month had elapsed and no opinion had been given, inquiry at the . Attorney- General's office elicited the information that no opinion had been officially asked and that none could be given unless the Governor or a member of the board requested it. In his expense account Rice charged railroad fare from Jefferson City to St. Louis and back to Jefferson City and a hotel bill in St. Louis. Information reached the Governor that Rice had not heen away from his home in 8t. Louis on the dates mentioned in the account. and had not incurred either the ex- pense of railroad fare or hotel bill. Waited for an Opinion. conferred with Capt. Bradbury, secretary to the board. as the result of which the Governor be- came of the opinion that the board had asked the Attorney-General for an opinion, and he consequentiy let the matter lie dormant awaiting this opin- on, It now develops that the only opinion asked was in a letter from Jolin A. Knott, another member of the commis- sion, who asked that he oe given a pri- vate opinion. This the Attorney-General refused on the ground that he could not give an opinion, except officially. {t has been the custom of the com- inissioners to charge railroad fare from Jefferson City to the point where a hearing is to be held. and back to Jef- ferson City, when, in fact, the trip originated at some other place, and the commissioners were not in Jefferson City on the days named in their ex- pense accounts.

The vertical system of writing been abolished by the East St. us Board of Education and a modified, or 30 degree slant system, will be taught ip East St. Louis schools in the future. — The recommendation prompting thi=” change was made to the board by Prof> John E. Miller, Superintendent of Publi) Schools, at Monday night's meeting. — The old slant system was at a slantof 45 degrees. The change by the Rast’ St)” Louis board is a compromise betweel this and the vertical system, and is sald to be more natural and easy to leari than either. oS Prof. Miller, in his argument before the board, said that while the vertical system has the most beauty, the tend. ency of children to a slant shows tha the vertical system is unnatural. He said that the slant method is still ad- hered to in most business offices, but that if the signatures of business men” were examined it would be found that they were nearer the vertical than the slant of 45 degrees. He therefore urged the compromise of the 30-degree slant. — The vertical system has been taught — in East St. Louis schools for the last eight years, and it is not expected that all) scholars should begin the modified slant writing immediately.

Se i i STATE PRIMARIES. The strongest argument which Gov. Folk urges in favor of a State primary law which he outlined in the Sunday Post-Dispatch is that it would do away with ‘the political boss system of running party or- ganizations, which is the most serious obstacle in the way of good government. The Governor says rightly that the complication of processes in the way of party primaries and conventions and the juggling of conventions prevent the control of par- ties by the voters. It is perhaps too much to expect that any pri- mary Jaw would wholly remove the evils of bossism, but a law providing for the safeguarding of primary elections against fraud, as regular elections are safe- guarded, and providing for primary elections on the same date all over the State, would greatly reduce these evils. It would make the task of keeping control of parties in the hands of the citizens much easier. Under our system of party rule the primary elec- tions are almost as important as the elections them- selves. In most cases they determine absolutely the The fixing of slates and platforms is practically accomplished at the primaries. If they are fraudulent or corrupt, the action of the parties will be fraudulent and corrupt. The voters are compelled to accept slates and con- vention jobs or rebel, with frequently little or no choice on the other side. An honest effort, therefore, to obtain good legisla- tion regulating the primary elections is altogether commendable. With good laws regulating both the of good citizens to control the government in the interest of public welfare will be greatly en- larged. As Gov. Folk says, the government ought __ to be brought as near the people as possible. They should control at every point. One important point which should be provided for in Missouri is the nomination of United States senators by popular vote at primary elections. The usual method of determining the election of United States senators, that is, by pledging legislators long in advance of a meeting of the Legislature, by cut and dried caucuses in back rooms, should be abol- ished. Until United States senators are elected by the people they should be nominated by the popular vote. The spectacle of a Legislature with its work blocked by contending factions, such as Missouri pre- ‘ Ee peated at the last session, should never occur again. - Nor should a United States Senator ever be chosen = again by the gum-shoe method. Missouri should have a good primary election law and the candidates, United States senators included, ‘should be chosen ty the honest vote of the people. “The conventions of bith parties should declare by ‘resolution unequivocaliy for this method.

HOBSON’S PREDICAMENT. Can Capt. Hobson ever make the American public take him seriously? He is a man of great force and ability. Had he been anything else he would never have got through the Naval Academy; he would not have gained great credit in the scientific work of the navy, and he _ would not have been chosen for that dangerous duty in Santiago Harbor. His ideas of public policy may be juvenile, but of his genera) ability there can be no question. And his general ability may be con- verted into the special talent needed in Congress. And yet—who takes him seriously? Jerry Simpson was handicapped by an untertunate reference to his sockless condition during Ms first race for Congress. He lived long enough in public _ life to demonstrate his power and clear intelligence, but he was always something of a joke. Will Hob- : son fare as well as Simpson? Or will the memory of _ his foolish conduct after his great exploit forever ob- _ secure the merits he has? eS The greatest French revolution is the election of _ Socialists in Brittany.

Cugiously enough, the Leiter plan of general opera- tion has attempted to justify itself on this same line of argument, the argument that the element of risk entitles those who take great risks to great returns, regardless of other considerations. When this argument is applied in burglary, the results show its unsoundness. The first success may be equal to the risk, but all the forces of that part of the community which insists that value must be given when value is taken, will operate to prevent the element of risk from being finally realized on in permanent profits.

Nixola Greeley-Smith said a good .thing boldly when she stated: “The holiest nun telling her beads before the Virgin's altar is not as holy as the young mother looking upon her first born.”’ Someone has taken exception to the journalist's view of the matter, and has brought a wealth of sen- timent to bear upon the subject. Sentiment is powerful; it moves the world-heart; but a little calm reasoning is more wholesome. The holy nun is the logical result of the good mother. We must not forget that not a few young women are overcome by sentimentality when they desert their homes for the cloister. This sweet sentimentality they never lose. Did they catch a glimpse of the lonely mother doing all, the household chores, etc., perhaps. sentiment would fade, and practical duty would take its place The work which becomes strangely sweet in the cloister was strangely distaste- ful at home, and the Mother Supenor of the new life seems hallowed above the plain old mother superior at home. Far be it from my mind to disparage any one of those noble religious women, who give up ai] for Christ’s sake, but I repeat: The holy nun is the logical result of the good mother. - ANNIE MOSITY. vote. action in planni ” If a burglar has real genius for this sort of | Tin | OH, DR.

Written for the Post-Dispatch By Nixola Greeley-Smith. My Dear Miss Greeley-Smith: There is one topic that you have not yet treated—a topic that to me as a mere stupid man is the couse of much wonder. Will you explain why it is that the world knows of Damon and Pythias, of David and Jonathan, not to mention other men who have been ~ us say Hypatia—and—? Why is this thus? friends, and yet the world does not know of—le- cee WwW. 2. & AMON and Py+hias have been a long time dead— D likewise Vavid and Jonathan. Neverthertheless, there exist among men friendships as sincere and genuine as the bonded faith of these fabled heroes. And it is to be feared there are none of similar Sincerity among women. “Why is this thus?’’* the readeer asks. One reason, Of course, that never disturbs the even tenor of men’s souls is the vexing element of beauty. A clever woman does not object to a beautiful woman much if she can solace herself with the reflection that the beauty is a fool as well. The fatuous beauty is nev- er seriously disturbed by her plainer sister's cleverness, but she will feel more certain of the latter’s good char- acter if she happens to wear dowdy clothes. The merely clever woman and the Merely pretty woman, therefore, can for- give each other and dwell together in a fairly good imitation. of amity. But woe be unto any woman if she be reckoned the poasessor of both coveted quali- ties in men’s esteem. The friendly sewing circle shall know her not, and her name will be a hissing and a byword atthe afternoon tea. Her beavty, of course, is a matter Of makeup, or else a mere childish pret- tiness that may please man, but does not stir him, while her success is entire- ly due to luck. Perhaps the answer is in the passive attitude of man in courtship, There are certain surface feminine rapprochements, based generally on con- venience or expediency, that pass for friendship sometimes. One of the most lasting two today s often munch the apple of discord -. avery together, -—> nds between men or women is that created by a common grudge, and STORIES TOLD IN WASHINGTON Te a Correspondent of the Post.

One evening he came in and an- nounced that he had renounced the game, ‘What's friend. *'Oh," he said, wearily, ‘It's no use. I give it up. Whenever I can see the ball I can't hit it, and whenever I can hit it I can't see it.’ the matter, Jim?’ asked a ee Representative Ruppert of New York told a yarn about J. L. Robbins of the Robbins Ship Yard in Brooklyn. He was in the Adirondacks and developed into the worst golf player ever seen in those parts, and that is saying a great deal. They had a match for a silver cup and the championship of the Lake Placid links. Robbins entered and the com- mittee gave him a handicap of 8 for a joke. Robbins went away for a couple of weeks before the match. Then he came back, played in the match and won the cup with a card that showed 82. That is, his net score, after the handicap had been subtracted, was three less than nothing, ‘which,"’ said Represent- ative Rupvert, “is going some.” “You see,”” Ruppert continued, ‘‘Rob- bins went to New York, put himself in the hands of a professional and did nothing but play golf for the two weeks he was away. Then he went back and cleaned up the Smart Alecks who handi- capped him at %.”’ Private John Allen has returned to Tupelo to look after his cotton, but be- fore he went he told Ed Smith a story in a burst of confidence about his first campaign for Congress in 1834, when the vote of the colored citizens was of more importance than it is today. Al- len was stumping his district and was billed to come in one afternoon and speak in Tupelo, his home town, His friends thought he could not get there in time to speak and asked a Demo- cratic negro to talk for him. “By chance,”’ said Allen, “I was able to reach Tupelo before the feast of elo- quence had started, and, of course, I could not get out of a speech. One or two local orators preceded me, and when I concluded it came the time for my colored advocate to express himself. “When he got up before the audience and in an easy manner and with a voice that carried to every man in the crowd, said: ‘My Democratic friends, we have listened to some powerful fine speeches here today.

| | Saves Labor and Dirt. | To save the taking up of ashes, we |; have an arrangement which we would dislike to be without. In the bottom of our range we cut a hole in which a three-iuch galvanized iron pipe is in- serted. This leads into a brick pit di- | sane underneath in the basement, | which holds two cartloads of ashes; s0 it is necessary to have them removed only once a year. As our grate is mod- erately fine, we never have to dump it, thus saving the disagreeable work of sifting the ashes.—National Magazine for May.

Boiled Chestnuts. A valuable discovery made recently is a comfortable and even elegant way of eating boiled chestnuts. A bit of shell is pared from the larger end of each nut before boiling for 20 minutes in salted water; they are then eaten con- veniently from the insinuating tip of a coffee spoon—chestnuts on the half- shell, as it were, properly accompanied by a draught of sweet cider. With a small, sharp knife, a quart of chestnuts can be prepared for boiling in 10 min- utes or less. Novel Luncheon. A peacock luncheon was adopted as a novelty by a young matron in quest of dinner entertainment. She had an artist friend to give gen- eral assistance in making the thing a success. The tables was spread with a plain white satin damask cloth, pat- terned only in a deep border, and me-

in dark green held a bunch of peacock feathers, and two or three more were spread around on the cloth. White glass candlesticks with dark green candies and peacock feather shades were used. White china and cut glass constituted the service. The din- ner cards were of thick white board, having each of them a peacock tip sold at Japanese stores. A decoration in gold of Japanese lettering was at the lower end of the card, together with the name. The effect was novel and pleasing. The Middle-Aged Woman. All shades of purple, gray and some shades of blue are becoming to elderly women. A black gown with white about the neck is always most becoming. Certain shades of pale tan look well with white halr. As a rule, brown and red should be avoided by women whose hair is quite gray. An old lady, gowned in white or light gray is always charming. Except for strictly pedestrian pur- poses the elderly woman's skirt is best made long. Exaggerated trimmings and styles should be avoided by the woman who has passed middie age. Taffeta silks are especially suitable for elderly ladies, who should always have the harshness of any gown softened by lace jabots and sleeve ruffles. Long lines on cloak, skirt and bodice trimming are usually found best. — — a i So

of our development and far above our political practices. What we need is not to revolutionize it but to realize it. If Karl Marx has defined Socialism it is a confusion of terms in the minds of those who have reasons of their own for preferring such confusion. To abolish private property—that is, the right of the worker to earn and _ to hold as his own the savings from what he has earned—is to establish slavery. Government siould be limited and constitutional. No majority, oligarchy or monareh should have authority to control the earner in his earning or in his saving. No government should con- trol the person of the earner, por should it be allowed to accomplish the same end by controlling either the ave- nues of his employment or the savings he may accumulate as property from his earnings. Socialism aims at absolutism for a majority, controlling all avenues of em- ployment and asserting a right to con- trol all avenues of investment and al) industrial activities of the earner. It would necessarily be destructive of all liberty. In Germany it is the Product of a despotic plutocracy, in America of the same plutocracy operating through extra-legal and illegal oligarchy. Socialism and plutocracy ought to he alike impossible in the United States since each is wholly incompatible with the American system of constitutional! government, intended to protect the Single earner in his right to contro] his own person and his own earnings. WILLIAM VINCENT BYARS St. Louis, April 17. Not Socialism, but Single Tax In so far as Socalism embodies a cone demnation of the injustices of our pres- ent regime I heartily commend jt and believe that ft is consistent with the best American spirit. When, however it presents the public ownership of aj) means of production as a remedy it seems to me to offer an impracticable solution, and one that would not be consistent with American ideas of free. dom of the individual and persona] jnj- tiative. : The errors of Socialism are: 1. Its distrust of natural laws. It condemns competition, for instance, a law of nature quite independent of

| man's motives, failing to see that its operation is beneficial when conditions are really free as they are not today. 2. Its materialism. It declares that his- tory is altogther controlled by the ma- terlal environment, and that idealism has no part in shaping the fiture. 5. Its dogmatism. It believes that it can predict the future with absolute ex- actiude, which is absurd. 4. Its insistence that the struggle for justice is a class struggle. 5. Its neglect of the element of free- dom. We are far from enjoying free- dom today, but under Socialism we should be still further from it, and the spirit of most Socialists is narrow and intolerant in the extreme. My own view of the proper course to pursue is to discover the origin of the various injustices that prevail and cure them at the source. In my opinion they are all due to monopoly of one kind or another, and all monopolies should be abolished, including the monopoly of sites, which could be ended by a single tax on land values. This would mean extreme democracy, liberalism and free trade, and would leave the fleld open for voluntary co-operation, as the only kind of Socialism which is consistent with freedom. ERNEST H.

-— ELL WILL NOT BE IRISH ANY MORE i

i Pitcher John Promises Himself Not to Lose His Temper or Let His Feelings Get the Best of Him and Will Merely Work at Baseball for the Money There Is In It. “Whisky,” said Pitcher Powell, Ben- tentiously, and with the air of the man who knows and the man who has been there, “is not fit for a hog to put in his stomach, not to speak of°a man.”’ Pitcher Jack sat upon the steps of his home, 3122 North Twelfth street, his young son, Vincent, on his knee and hw handsome wife by his side. The little jad, very fair and rather slight, bears an eerie resemblance to his gigantic father in the odd, wistful look of his eyes, winningly affectionate yet oddly distrustful. “Yet they say,’ urged the reporter, “that you have gone against it pretty hard recently.” “Yos,"’ said the great pitcher, as he laid the boy in his mother’s arms, the better to get up and talk, ‘‘and by the living truth I have done with it. “Like whisky?’’ continued Red John, walking up and down in rapid gesticu- lation. ‘“‘No more than that boy does, and he'll gag for an hour if he tastes a drop. Company, love of talk, good fellowship, a drink and then another ‘and another, and you have no sense, and wit goes out and you are an idiot, @ scoundrel and a fool. “I do not believe’ that I have ever taken a drink alone. I would go for years without buying myself a lone drink; I never took a lonely drink even to cure a cold. But I do love compan- jonship, or, rather, I have had the hab- it of it. I have always been accustomed to someone buying a drink and someone taking it. It is a mere habit, a bad hab- it, need but a little denial for a week or 80, an avoidance of the company, and there you are. “I know I have gained the reputation] of being a convivial fellow. I suppose I am. Yet I do not drink much. A very little liquor becomes manifest on me. There is’ O’Connor, my partner. He can drink a barrel to my glass and never show it. Jack is wise and never touches it during playing days. Powell sniff a cork and he wants to ' tell the world of it. Will Work for McAleer, “T have no kick to make. I made a mistake. McAleer is my friend. He did right. I am going to get into condition — prove that I appreciate his friend- ship. “Anyone will tell you that I kept sober from Jan. 1 to May 1. I was slow getting into condition. The weather was cold and the season late, and [f need hot weather. Even when I was only 18 years old:I needed hot weather to pitch my best ball. 1 am 30 now and need it worse. “I worked hard, but I am a man of iron flesh. I do not lay on much soft fat, but I put on solid flesh. This is ‘harder to take off than fat. I must have the hot sun. “McAleer or anyone will tell you I had more speed this spring than I ever had. lI pitched three winning games. I won two and lost one by bad luck, a eee a o Powell's Self-Contempt. “You see that day I lost to Chicago I had them froze until they get a few lucky taps. They were lucky to bunt me and keep from striking out. O'Neill bunts the first one towards first, I am going there for it and he crosses me. Then Hartzell, over-anxious, runs in and butts the next one out of my hands when I had it. I do not blame him. He is voung and was trying hard. Then I myff one, and another lucky one goes over my head and I lose. “T get mad at myself. I go home and size myself up in the glass and say, ‘You hig mutt, is this what I have been train- ing you for all winter anl spring?

I know more and have more stuff. The trouble with me is that I have got one of those _ hair-trigger Irish tempers and one of those over- sensitive Irish dispositions. “When I was with New York, Griffith would take me out the moment 1 was hit twice. I did not like that. I do not mind being hit. Griff made me sore by what I considered his womanish tac- tics, and I could not keep up a fair face and a simile and spiel the old bull like the Germans can, I just had to fight him. “Those German ball players are all right.

They o not give a hang for the manager or the way he works them or what he Says or does as long as they get the money. “They are right. The Irish forget all about the money until they need it. They get hurt and offended and want to fight and let the money go to Hades. “Tell the folks that Powell is Irish no more. He never will getemad over los- ing a me and abuse himself for it. He will just work end work and win or lose; he will not care a cuss as long as he steps up and draws his salary. Come out to the park any day between 10 a. m. and 3 p. m. and see him carry the hod.

HAVEN HITTERS FIND LOST EVES ——— - —~—ee McAleer’s Men Turn Loose a Torrent of Base Hits Upon Unfortunate Sox. Special te the Post-Dispatch. CHICAGO, May 8.—Manager Mc- Aleer said this morning that’ the White Sox looked so easy yesterday that he is confident now of taking the entire series from Chicago. The score of yesterday’s game was St. Louis 19, Chicago 0, and the manner in which the Raven batters hammered Owen and Fiene, the White Sox — pitchers, was pitiful to witness. Six hits were made off Owen in two innings and nine off Fiene in seven. Wallace got three two-baggers, Hemphill _ three hits, two of them doubles, and Tom Jones, Niles, Howell and Rickey two hits each. George Stone, who is lead- in the American League in batting, and Hartzell were the only members of the Ravens that did not get hits. Howell pitched sterling ball for St. Louis, allowing the White Sox but six hits and striking out five. College Collations| The work of Strat Morton at Colum- bia, Mo., Saturday, has attracted an unusual amount of attention. Morton equaled his own interscholastic record of 64s. for the 440, made at the Central Field Day meet, and smashed the best time ever made on Rollins Field. His brother, Charles, won the shet-put at the Central meet and bids fair to win as much distinction in future events of this character as Stratford has in the quarter.

Jefferson Smith has been elected baseball manager of Christian Broth- ers’ College. Big Robinson will be back in St. Louis U.’s lineup Saturday, and his hitting should aid the Blue and White quite a bit. As testifving to the pleasant rela- tions between members of the two teams it may be mentioned that Smith and St. Louis U. have arranged to do their ratice work together at Sportsman's ark this week. Both schools have some important games on their schedule and this arrangement will be of mutual benefit to them. The defeat of Yeatman by the West- port High School nine of Kansas City should not unduly discourage the North Siders. The Kansas City boys were larger and more experienced in everg department of the game, and a victory under these conditions for the local nine was not anticipated. The Smith Academy team, which is scheduled to play the Kaw City team May 19 at the Washington meet, is a more even match for the Westpor team. College men who have seen both teams play say there will be an entirely different verdict after Coach Liston’s charges get through with the Kansas City nine. Central and Yeatman High School nines have been extended an invitation by the faculty of the Christian Broth- ers’ College to hold their field days on the college campus. McKinley has al- ready arranged to hold her closed field ook meet, May ll, at the C. B. C. cam- Frankie Howe rforming brilliant- ly at third base for Bt.

Special to the Post-Dispatch. CINCINATI, May 8—The Cardinals and the Reds will play the last game of the present series today. McCloskey will probably give Puttmang a trial in the box and Ovetall will lik®y twirl for Cincinnati. A large crowd is expected after the great 15-inning struggle be- tween the two clubs yesterday, which resulted in a 2 to 2 score. Brown, who has been slow in rounding to this season, twirled a game that de- lighted Manager McCloskey, and his teammates behind him performed in faultless fashion, not an error being made in the 15 innings of play. CARDINALS DELIGHT CINCINNAT| FOLK oe _ Great Exhibition in Fifteen Innings Tie Game, Pleases the Baseball Enthusiasts of the Queen City Very Much —Large Crowd Expected Tuesday. Brown allowed 10 hits, and Weimer, the [Red's pitcher, 9. Joe Kelley was the only redleg to make an error. St. Louis scored in the first On Raub’s single to left, Bennett’s bunt and Shan- non and Arndt’s outs. The Reds scored in the third on Schlei’s home-run hit in the left field bleachers. Both teams scored in the sixth. Arndt singled to left for the Cardinals and took third on Kel- ley’s fumble. Harry scored on Beck- ley’s long fly to Seymour. The Reds obtained their run on Bar- ry’s single to right, Kelley’s sacrifice and Seymour's single. Both pitchers were wonderfully ef- fective from the sixth on, neither team

ATHLETIC. MEE FOR PLAY GROUNDS Secretary Smith Announces Attractive Program for Occasion. Secretary Sarg Smith of the Triple A, who is in charge of the outdoor meet to be given by the St. Louis Play Grounds Association June 9, at the Triple A, an- nounced the program of events for the tournament Tuesday morning. The following is the list of events: 100- vard dash, 100-yard interscholastic championship, 220-yard dash, 440-yard dash, 880-yard, and one-mile open; relay to any team; running high jump, broad jump, pole vault and put- ting 16-pound shot. Assurances have been received from the following organizations that they will have representatives in the meet: Missouri Athletic Club, Central High School, Triple A, C. B. C., Washington University and St. Louis University. Eniries will close June 2

“a Baseball Babble| “Wish” Egan, the Cardinals’ pitcher, will be married Tuesday morning at De- troit, Mich., to Miss Della B. Baumler of Wyandotte, Mich. Mr. and Mrs. Egan are to leave after the marriage ceremony for St. Louis, where the bride- groom is scheduled to pitch Wednes- day’s game against the Chicago Cubs.

Manager Chance of the Chicago Club has closed a deal with the Cincinnati Club, whereby Chicago receives Pitcher Jack Harper in exchange for Third- baseman Hans Lobert. Manager Armour admitted in Detroit, Monday night, that he had mailed his resignation as manager of the Tigers to President Yawkey. He said that he would: not take up the reins again until he was assured absolute control of the fortunes of the club on the fieid. Hanlon has traded Pitcher Gus Dorner to the Boston club for Fraser, and has opened negotiations with the New York Americans for the purchase of Outfield- er Pat Dougherty. Carr and Hafford. it is thought, will be sent to the minors. The National Commission will hold an important meeting at Cincinnati Mon- day, when the Kelley and Sebring cases will be taken up for adjustment. That Cobb individual who is playing for Willie Armour in Detroit does not seem to have been husked too soon. Jake Beckley has not allowed the past winter to steal any of his ginger. He still is in the game over his ears. The Chicago club has secured Catch- er Warren Seabaugh from the Spring- field club of the Westérn Association. According to Detroit players, with- out Wallace the Browns would be like “Hamlet” minus the melancholy Prince.

When I did bear The motiey fool thus mora! on the time ey lungs began to crow like echanticheer That fools should be so deeply contemplative. Shakespeare. You know it is all right to be a sport and well posted and liberal in your vieWs and bawl for the open town and the right of every weak sucker who makes $15 per week to spend it as he— a man—pleases, and to berate so-called Preachers and call everyone who dis- sents a “knocker,’ and be a bposter and tell lies in order to try to assist weak- lings to eminences which they have no chance on earth to attain and which, by right of conquest, belongs to the strong, and try to praise them into be- ing something they cannot be and all that sort of rot. But there are times wnen these sport- ing logicians and philosophers say and write things that make you sick unto death. Perhaps it is the lot of eulogists—which is the classical euphemism for salve- Spreaders—to be dolefully dense. We have heard of Demdsthenes made fa- mous by his Phillipics, Cicero by his Catalines, Junius by his Georgiads, but I have heard of but one eulogist who made himself famous by his salve, and he—Mare Antony—was speaking of a dead man. These sporting eulogists certainly see things through strange glasses. Here we find a leading man among them, Mr. Joseph A. Vila of the New York Sun, for whose discernment and ability we have aiways entertained a large regard, profane a column of good white paper telling us what a grand and generous being Frang Farrell, owner of theeNew York American League Baseball] lub is, because, -forsooth, he was close enough to the police authorities of New York to induce them te allow his team to play the Boston Club a Sunday game for the benefit of the earthquake suf- ferers at San Francisco whereby great sums were added to the relief funds, Mr. Vila also invidiously contrasts this liberality of Mr. Farrell with the al- leged niggardliness of the owner of the National League team of New York. Mr. Brush—whom Mr. Vila does not like —and who gave $500 of his club’s funds to the sufferers, Now let us inquire into the merits of the case, Brush gave $00 his club had made. Farrell let his club play an extra game on a Sunday—which was worth $6000 to him in advertising alone—and let the receipts, probably after deducting ¢x- penses, go to the sufferers. His year's baseball account was not affected one cent one way or the other. The people who saw the game paid the freight. Had not the mantle of charity covered the sin of legal violation the game would not have been permitted. Now, where- in is Mr. Farrell entitled to half a column fulsome eulogy and Mr. Brush to as much of virulent excoriation? Another sporting writer of eulogistic inclinations bursts into a long pean of praise of Battling Nelson because that -worthy and his manager, Billy Nolan, gave $1000 between them to the Frisco fund and wants to know where are the preachers and the lid shutters. Inas- much as Messrs. Nelson and Nolan copped about $50,000 out of the destroyed city last year, and inasmuch as their little $500 each will bring them $1,000,000 in advertising, I cannot see where they broke their tender hearts in liberality. As for the preachers and the lid-shut- ters, I hold no brief for them, but it is safe to say that if any one, or any ten of them got as much out of San Francisco as the fighters and the sport- ing men, they would come hack with a little $1000. At least we would feel sorry for them if they did not. Sport is so alright. But what a lot of what the Irish call “balderdash and flummery’’ there is to it. Coming down in the street car this morning we heard Mr. Robert E. Lee ‘Hedges, owner of the American League Baseball Club of St. Louis, whistling. ‘‘There’s @ face at the window.” We trust it will be the freckled but honest countenance of one John Powell, a pitcher, and that the architectural aper- ture will have the word “cashier” over it. The Record-Herald says John OD. Rockefeller has been advised to play baseball for his health. We should be glad to see Mr. Rockefeller bat against some of the inshoots we fancy Miss Tarbell could hand him. We predict that the Britons will get protenctes pleasure out of baseball. ‘hereas the pleasure of Americans ends with the game of the day the boys of John Bull can enjoyehe following morn- ee A N. W.

YOUTH, FREED FROM

PRISON, WILL WED Harry Murphy, Convicted Bur- glar, Goes to St. Joseph for Ceremony.

ALWAYS GOOD PRISONER

He Met Miss May McCormick When She Visited State Penitentiary. When Harry Murphy, convicted bur- glar, was released from the Penitentiary at Jefferson City T'uesday morning, he boarded the first train for St. oJsevh. Mo., where he is to be married Wednes- day to Miss May McCormick, who met Murphy more than a year ago while visiting the Penitentiary. Murphy is 2 years old and Miss McCormick 22. In the summer of 1904, Miss McCor- mick, with a party of friends, visited Jefferson City on an excursion. The Penitentiary is the one place of inter- est to Sunday visitors at the capital, and the party spent an hour there. In passing through a cell building she met Harry Murphy. His boyish looking face, brown eyes and light brown hair attracted her attention. A guard toid her Murphy's name, Thinking little of the circumstance, she passed on, but she remembered the name. Visited Prison Again. Several weeks later she again visited Jefferson City on an excursion. This time it occurred to her to call for Mur- | phy. She did so and was permitted to see him, and they spent a half-hour talking in the Deputy Warden's office. Murphy confesses he was a little doubtful of the “game he was up against” when a strange woman asked to see him, but he carried out his part. In the half-hour they talked together, each was attracted by the other, and it was agreed they should correspond. Since that time Murphy has received several letters u week from Miss Mc- Cormick, and she has received one from him. Conviets-..are permitted to write case that one letter has always gone to his sweetheart. She has also kept him plentilly supplied with clothing of better material than those furnished by the State. At various times she has sent him lit- tle delicacies,,which he could not have obtained in any other manner. She has visited him a number of times. Monday Warden Hall received a letter from Miss McCormick, saying that she had a good position in St. Joseph and asking that he-advise Murphy to go from Jefferson City to St. Joseph, in- sead of Kansas City, where it had first been planned they be married. Hurries to St. Joseph. Murphy talks with some hesitancy about his approaching marriage, though he admits it has been arranged that he shall marry Miss McCormick as soon as he can get to St. Joseph. The young man has served 27 months in the Penitentiary, having been sent from Monett, Mo., on a charge of bur- glary and larceny. He has been a good prisoner, and for several months has been a “‘trusty,’’ working about the new administration building at the prison. He had never before been in prison. COMFORTS OF SUMMER.

"TRANCE GIRL'S’ MOTHER POISONED Ethel Sturtevant, 17, Charged With Shooting Sweetheart, Was Under Suspicion.

DOCTOR TELLS INCIDENT

Girl Denies, Despite Young Man’s Assertion, That She Fired Shot. Special to the l’oe:-Dispatcl LEBANON, N. H., May Sturtevant. who is known Trance Girl" here, remains in lianover; Jesse Garden lies point of death. aa The uncanny girl vows that often call to her,:throw her into a trance and then communicate = their Wishes to her. ~She must obey them. for they dominate her completely. “The spirits, who eften talk to me. teld me my mother would die of pai- SOR 00h, and that her death would be called a suicide,’ gaid Ethel today. ‘‘T told mother of the spirits’ prediction. d she and I often talked about it. t worried her, because she knew I got my information from the spirits." Sometimes after a seeming trance the rl writes poetry and prose well worthy, a much older and better edu- cated person. The police are mystified by the psychological phase of the case. They really think it possible that im- pellied by the mystic powers, which. she says, sometimes possess her, she may have shot Barden. Barden Makes Charges. Barden is 21 years old. He stopped eourting Ethel last December. He re- iterates that she wrote, asking him to visit her last Thursday, and while they sat on a stone wall near her home, she shot him in the right breast. She not only continues to deny that she shot Barden, but says that someone shot at her, when, hearing Jesse's voice outside her home. she went to see what he was S.—Ethel The Jail in at the As spirits ‘ | doing there. And some facts seem to corroborate her. Two cartridges had been discharged from the revolver that was found under her pillow Friday morning. But per- sons who have scrutinized young r- den’'s wound say that the bullet that made it—which has not been extracted— is not of the same caliber as the re- volver. And other persons who have examined the weapon declare that weeks must have elapsed since it was discharged. GIRL BOUGHT ARSENIC BEFORE MOTHER DIED. Special to the Post-Dispatch. ’ BROCKTON. Mass., May &.—Miss Ethel Sturtevant. 17 years old, who is charged with shooting her former sweetheart, Jesse Barden, near Leban- on, N. H., bought arsenic just before her mother’s death in this city, three years ago. Dr. D. A. Dunn of Brock- ton, who, with the police, investigated Mrs. Sturtevant’s suspicious death, de- elares the girl's mother died with all the symptoms of arsenical olsoning, and that Ethel finally admitted that she

There most of it was found. read of the Jesse Barden first thought was that the ‘girl is the Bthel Sturtevant who used to live here.”’ said Dr. Dunn today. “I am giad she lefi Brockton. She some- times came to my office, and [ was afraid of her. As a child her mind was abnormally developed.. Went Into “France” Then. “Mrs. Sturtevant told me she was be- ing poisoned,” Dr. Dunn continued. “after her death we closely! questioned Ethel, but could learn nothing from her. When I went to her I found her lying pale and rigid, as if in a trance. She did not answer me and I shook ler, saying: ‘You may fool the police, but you can't fool me.’ ‘Then she came up from her pretend- ed trance, but I could get no informa- tion from her. At the police station this girl of 14 years was sharply questioned for more than two hours, and after most skillful parrying she told us at last that she had bought arsenic to kil$ rats and hidden it under her mother's carpet. “There was no chance to convict any~ one of having poisoned Mrs. Sturtevant. Even if Ethel shot Jesse Barden, I do not believe she will be convicted; she is too shrewd. Hers is a remarkable brain. When she was only 14 she knew more shooting my

about the Bible than most grown people and was thoroughly conversant with the Catholic church dogmas, although she is not of that faith.” ee

» - NEW COMEDY HIT BY MISS CROSMAN SS en “Mary, Mary, Quite Contrary,” Scores a Success—Mrs. Carter’s ‘‘Zaza.”’ is the distinction of Contrary,” in

Genuine comedy “Mary, Mary. Quite which Henrietta Crosman began a week's engagement before a crowded house at the Olympic Monday -evening. The play tells the story of how a de- lightful ‘‘old maid'’—just old enough to know her world properly and yet not have lost any of the charm of young womanhood—volunteers to save a mar- ried chum from payment of the penalty for having flirted a bit too desperately with another man just before her mar- riage to one who proves a most jealous husband, and of how this helpful one herself becomes entangled in love's mesh as a consequence. Miss Crosman has a truly sparkling role in that of Mary, the heroine of this comedy, and she played it in a spirit of joyous animetion and keen'relish. . In many vilai respecis it is the most deli- cately drawn and congenial part she has ever had, calling out to the full the natural vivacity of her temperament and making an almost irresistible appeal to the liking of an audience. From the moment when Mary first appears ‘on the soene and declares war against Her- bert Danvers, the somewhat spoiled and overpetted gentleman who is disposed to continue loving a married woman whom he loved before her marriage, un- til ultimate victory is won in the last act, the character fairly tingles with magnetism. During all the time of Mary’s battling with Danvers to extri- cate the embarrassed Mrs. Belmore, she herself is surely and palpably fallin in love with that formidable chap—ana the immensely tickled appreciation with which the house watched this develop- ment was a refreshing thing to see. Tt was such a tribute, you know, to the charm of genuine comedy of which I spoke and which is so rare nowadays, There are some éxcellent situations in the story. One ig the early scene in which Mary tells Danvers that she will compel him to surrender, and even burn the old love letter written by Mrs. Belmore, he agreeing to give her every opportunity to find it and pledging himself to an accommodat- ing withdrawal from the field of con- flict if she succeeds in that bold en- terprise. Another is where she visits him in his bachelor apartments, finds the letter, conceals the fact of its

finding and endeavors to trftck him into using it as a taper with which to light a lamp. Still a third is the ex- cellently handled episode of the rap- idly changing ownership of the par- tially burned letter, a series of swift farce-changes, in which the document falls into the hands of nearly every one of the 10 persons in the company with Mary, each change apparently increasing the pers? to the young wife. Throughout these several phases of the bright st«#y Miss Crosman revealed a fine mingling of gayety and earnestness, underlaid with senti- ment that made the title role im- mensely interesting. The little supporting company sur- rounding Miss Croaman is well cast. Boyd Putnam comes near looking like a Staged presentment of a ibson Man as Herbert Danvers, and plays the part with a good understanding of its demands. Miss Dallas Tyler as Mrs. Belmore gives a satisfying pic- ture of the foolish young wife, and Addison Pitt's Mr. Belmore js ade- quate, the story itself compelling an exaggerated stroke in bringing out the fact of Belmore's overpowering jealousy. The other characters are of minor importance. At times there is an “overdone” juvenility in the case of young Mr. Graybill's Algy and iss Hungerford's Violet Meri- vale, but not enough to s eral effect. William Her i Mer rhage ® study r.
