' PANA, Ill., May 12.—A chureh cursed by God because of its penuriousness is, St. Patrick’s Roman Catholic Church, Pana, Ill., according to the rector, Rev. Father Weigand. Almost everything dire except pestilence has either af- fected the church or its parishioners during the last 10 or 15 years. The rec- God is displeased at the penuriousness—stinginess, if you please— of the church, and beleves a curse to;

fice and its parish. Tornadoes have blown down thé stee- ple, wrecked the chimney, uprooted trees. The roof is almost as full of holes as a collander. The church has |} been flooded.

= en HA PPENINGS OF THE WEEK. Chancellor Day’s heated defense of the Standard saints reads like a tribute of gratitude. The Uni- versity of Syracuse is under obligations to them and it is most noble of the chancellor to come forward man- fully to their assistance when attacked by mere presi- dents and other officious representatives of the law. But he is likely to fill the saints with dismay. ‘They have reason to pray to be delivered from their friends. The Rev. MacArthur, with heart bursting with gratitude, broke into print a few months ago and bore witness to their sanctity. He had made a personal inquiry and knew whereof he spoke. Mr. Dodd, one of the legal advisers of the holy company, made a public defense. And Mr. Archbold assured Mr. Hadley that they were men of purest holiness. ——- But somehow these clerical and legal assurances do not convince the public. Mr. Roosevelt may be an anarchist, as Mr. Day says. But suppose he is. Does this prove that 26 Broadway is the abode of righteousness? Mr. Garfield’s report may be an im- pertinence. But impertinent persons sometimes tell the truth. Besides, Congress ordered him to investi- gate and report what he discovered. Even if he was impertinent in inquiring into the doings of the keep- ers of the holy oil, he was obliged to do it or resign his position. Mr. Day should denounce Congress, not Garfield, who may ke discharging a duty very un- pleasant to himself. Indictments are sometimes im- pertinences. They violate the right of privacy and things of that sort, Grand juries may even accuse a pillar.of Syracuse University; which would’ be shocking bad taste, but men who are woefully de- ficient in taste often tell the truth, and when they get on grand juries show themselves rude and tact- less, careless of the sensibilities of holy men. All of which goes to show that when good men are attacked by grand juries and presecuting attorneys and presidents and congresses they need men of first- rate dialectical power to speak for them. Mere fervor will not do. Gratitude is pretty sure to go off at half cock. Unction evaporates too quickly and ‘never appeals with convincing force to cold common sense. Let the shining spirits of righteousness of 26 Broadway find the slickest dialectician in the world, a man who can make the worse appear the better reason and do it so cleverly that the cunningest lawyer in the service of their accusers cannot break the chain of logic. They~must do this if they are to be rescued from the mockers. Holiness is all well enowfgh, but it can’t stand against impertinent inquiries without good, cold, flexible intellect. Sanc- tity, in troublous times, needs the support of the casuist. Mr. Day and Dr. MacArthur mean. well, x, but they are inadequate. Men of supreme dialectic skill are wanted at 26 Broadway where good wages will be paid to the right men. _. The administration followed the demonstration in _ front of the works of the Standard Oil Co. with a threat against the flank of the Drug Trust. The list _ of great trusts thus threatened was published during : the wegk. It. filled considerable space, but the list did not include a single one which has been dissolved, or in any other way reduced to subjection to the _ laws under which the administration is acting. This. is explained by the President’s own program of “publicity,” whieh, if he were a newspaper editor, would do the greatest credit, to his intelligence. As he is not, as he is a representative of the power in _ the penalties of laws, intended to force publicity that _ their penalties may be enforced, he is virtually tell-, _ ing those \whose flank he menaces that for the pres- ent he does not propose to hurt them—or at least not much. So for the present, at least, they are not 2 : much afraid of his demonstrations in force. _~ The attempt to explain the death of Charles L. _ Spier of New York as the result: of a battle with a burglar failed in the presence of conclusive evidence Of suicide. He was the “confidential” representative of H. H. Rogers in the business*of the Standard (il Co., and it is asserted that he had used the oppor- : tunities of “confidential” business to convert large sums of his employer's money to his own uses. Man- aging a modest business of his own, the unfortunate man might have lived a useful and prosperous life — control of the same impulses which, when yerverted, drove him to suicide. Public prayer by the Czar was preceded by a police nat on a preliminary meeting of its members, in- i to show the Parliament as ® body that it had ‘nor its hall of assem- : ie a power as against the “executive” repre- "eenting the power the Czar has reserved to take

tt was thus announced to the members of the | oe iam so that they could understand fully at sedan on Thursday, that the only con- 1 actually in force in Russia is the will of the ita tae seer, ete tee enactments are accepted merely as suggestions to the Czar. Asa council representing or alleged to repre- | sent the people, however, the Parliament will have the opportunity to present to the Czar the same is- sues of free speech and parliamentary privilege which were presented to Charles I of England until he con- cluded that the way to meet them was to send mem- bers of Parliament to the Tower. That conclusion of his brought absolutism in England to the end it may have soon in Russia. Trade suspended When the Chicago Board of “Joseph Leiter during the week, it was not for at- tempting to corner breadstuffs, though to do so is against the laws of trade and the laws of Illinois. It was for failing to keep agreements with, those with whom he conspired in attempting to violate the laws of trade, the laws of Illinois and the rules of all exchanges and boards above the level of the bucket shop. The death of Max Judd, one of the famous chess players of the world, was attributed to \nervous overstrain at chess. The nervous strain of overwork is the explanation given at the paralytic, stroke which prostrated F. N. Crunden, librarian of the St. Louis Public Library in New York on Wednes- day. The lives of these gentlemen illustrate moral character of the highest, and the nature of: the strain they put on themselves was that they might reach the highest excellence in the results of the intellect. It is lamentable that the very best pur- poses for which the human nervous system can be overstrained have at length the same physical re- sults which come, somewhat sooner, from the worst. oe ROOSEVELT AND BUNYAN. Of course, everybody who reads xt all, has read the “Pilgrim’s Progress.” That is not the question. The question is of when and how oiften. Perhaps a good many people have read it in the unfortunate way President Roosevelt did. That probably not more than once or twice and

1s to say, then in a strenuous hurry. As a result of this, President Roosevelt, came to use what he had borrowed from Bunyan, made one of the worst literary. blunders of his life, turning the plain meaning of Bunyan’s parable con- demning Men With Muck Rakes, first against Bun- van and not more than ten days later against him- self. But only think what a tremendous force the mere reference to Bunyan’s work has developed, even when its idea is thus twisted! Bunyan’s muck rake reappears in cartoons all the United States, in poems, in editorials, in sermons, in para- graphs. A mistaken quotation of two or three lines from a half-page parable by this tramp tinker com- pels the attention of a country of over seventy mil- lion people. So of.course everbody reads “Pilgrim’s Progress.” Hence everybody ought to read it at least once a year> when he over is

No Speaker has ever reached the presidency. But Speakers go right on hoping the lightning wil) strike them.

a ONLY BELIEVE. Prof. Hyslop’s discovery that a drunken man can be converted to a sober state by the hypnotic eye, is better than any of Edison’s inventions. | He ¢alls. it hypnotic suggestion. When you see a man too full for utterance, just suggest to him that he is not drunk*really. He only thinks he is drunk. If he will think that he is sober, sober he wal ” because really he is, sober. Thus physical states are merely beliefs. If vou believe. you are sick, you are sick. If you believe you are well, you‘are well. Since evil.is.only a temporary fleeting belief which has no footing in re- ality, it follows that, sickness and drunkenness are mere errors. The permanent enduring fatt is that all is good, and if you ‘will believe it» hard enough, the physical fact will immediately appear. to cor- respond. . This is a comfortable doctrine. If Prof. Hyslop’s theory is true,'a man can drink a gallon of whisky at a sitting and still be sober, if he will but believe that he is not drunk. This would be a great bless- ing. But it would be still better, perhaps, if he would believe that he doesn’t like whisky and therefore let it alone. And so of illness, loss of fortune, poverty, etc. Hypnotism is full of wonders. National legislation is asked for the control of the use of tobacco by young persons, but with the example of old persons constantly before him, Young America will not be much impressed by even national laws.

= |= = i id TROUBLES IN SOUTH AFRICA. One of the difficult tasks which has fallen to the Liberal government in England is the re-establish- ment of justice and decent order in South Africa. The British conquest resulted in the complete dom- ination of the large towns and cities as against the farmers, who, of course, are Boers almost to a man. The representative governments set up are partial to the larger communities, which possess power in Md gy of . ee and of material iptorents, : of the FE

} vital importance to St. Louis. nationalities, supported by a large floating vada tion, is having things all its own way because the Boers are without adequate representation in the government. They want to save their farms, their language, their religion, their schools, their customs—in short, their nationality. And they hope for relief from the Campbell-Bannerman government. The preservation of the French type of character and social custom in the province of Quebec shows that the aspirations of the Boers are not fanciful. What the British have done for their French sub- jects in Canada ought to be possible for their Boer subjects in South Africa. The Boer leaders accept the results of the war in good faith. But, as a speaker at a great meeting at Bloemfontein put it, the people “have no representa- tion except a nominal Parliament which does not know their wants and does not want to know them. They are British subjects by force. ‘Chey would not object to anne if they had the rights of British subjects.’ It is the people of South Africa against a squatter plutocracy, there to make what can be made and then to depart. If the Cambell-Bannerman govern- ment does not right these wrongs it will disappoint the hopes oF humahe people the world over. a

The session of the Executive Committee of ‘the Rivers and Harbors Congress in this city tomorrow, has been made the occasion of a public meeting on the floor of the Merchants’ Exchange, which will be attended by Congressmen Ransdell, Ellis, Lorimer and other distinguished guests: interested in river and harbor improvements. There is no subject of more The meeting on ‘Change should be largely attended.

oe THE SOCIALISTIC PROBLEM. So far the interesting series of Jetters on Socialism which has been published in the Post-Dispatch from day to day fails to disclose any definite program by which the object of the Socialists—collective produc- tion and distribution—is to be aecomplished without revolutionary measures in violation of the funda- mental principles of republican government as we maintained it. Confiscation, in mode which ean be have organized and one form or another, gathered from the discussion. Confiseation is, in fact, essential to the theory of State Socialism propounded by its champions in Eu- This theory is based upon an irrepressible con- The process by which it is to be ob- as the is the only rope. flict of classes. tained is political. European Socialists designate~it, must obtain control of the Government and proceed to revolutionize the present system of production and distribution by taking over all the machinery into the control and direction of the State, an industrial army under State discipline and direc- tion. This theory is directly contrary to upon which we have proceeded. We recognized a class conflict in politics, but have ad- hered to the theory of the solidarity of ..e mterests of capitalists and wage earners. As a fact, the classes, as defined by the Socialists, are so mingled in this country that the prospect of a pro- letarian majority taking control of the Government to revolutionize the system is impossible for many years to come. . ; - , 7 g ess : : 9 “ - i , , K 4 w ™ i : ‘ : ; A

Summer Garden Season and the Second Saturday in May Goes on Record As a Red-Letter Day—One Downtown Playhouse Closed Its Doors for the Regular Dramatic Year Last Night, and Several Others Now Enter Upon Their Final Week—It’s a Case of Welcome the Coming and Speed the Parting Guest—The Alps, Delmar Garden, West End Heights, Forest Park Highlands and Other Summer Resorts Now Invite the Soul—The Week’s Offerings. ERE you one of the gladsome thousands that hied themselves out to the Alps or Delmar Garden or West End’ Heights or Forest Park Highlands or any other of our open air resorts yesterday hailing Gentle Spring with as joyous acclaim as any lot of troubadour poets that ever caught sight of a green leaf or swelling bud in the vernal birth? It was a great day for this cityfull of winter-worn souls, I tell you—and I don’t see how anyone could witness its inspiring scenes and still contend that the world has grown old and that folks no longer have the knack of enjoying themselves near to Nature’s heart! Old, quotha?—Never was a younger generation turned out to grass since ever the First Man was born’! like irresponsible colts in the exuberance 0: their glee! Honestly, it was a sight to behold. The crowds fairly kicked up their heels A half-holiday in the first week of May, a clear and sunny sky and a southerly wind, half a dozen or more outdoor resorts beckoning to us with all sorts of alluring temptations— and lo! this ancient earth was young again and no St. Louisan kept a roof over his head if he sould get out *rom under it! Talk about your Japanese apple blogsom fetes—not in all the land of the Mikado could there be a more sincere welcome to Old King Ozone than we gave His Majesty yester- day. , And it'll be the same today~—only niore so.

een to good advantage as the French mil- liner and has a role of great strength, eu- abling ber to show her marked versatility both as a comedienne and as an emotional actress. Following the engagement in this city these stars go to Chicage, where they play an entire summer engagement. a. a . OLYMPIC.—The engagement of Neliie Stew- art, Australia’s representative actress, which opens at the Olympic tenight, should prove a most interesting one for the closing week al Mr. Short’s playhouse. Miss Stewart willl be supported by a cast of Australian actors. while the piay, ‘Sweet Neli of Old Drury,”’ has been given the lavish attention which char- acterizes all the productions made Dy. Australian ‘ianszer, George Mbusgrove. lt waa rather a daring undertaking for Mr. Mus- grove to bring his entire Australian company to America, Dut the results thus far have more than juetified his confidence in the en- tenprise. Much is promised in the star, waio, though well known in her own country, is comparatively a stranger in American cities. Misa Stewart has been styled the ‘‘Austrailian Bernhardt.’’ She has been in turn a atar in opera bouffe, gratid opera and drama, and for many seasons has successfully tovred tie an- tipedean continent, presenting many European and American successes. She made her Amer- ican premier in San Francisco, where ene was originally beoked for four weeks at the Ma- jestic Theater. This engagement had to be extended to six weeks on account of the great popularity of the new star and the San Fran- cisco papers were lavish in their praise of the player and the play. The production to be seen at the Olympic will be identically the same seen the first performances in Aus- tralia. There will be matinees Wednesday and Saturday. * - . GRAND.—Ernest Hogan, the ‘‘unbleached American,”’ and his big company of colored artists, who have just finished a prolonged engagement on Broadway, New York City, un- der the direction of Hurtig and Seamon, are mgking a tour of the principal cities of the country prior to an invasion of Eufope. They will be seen at the Grand Opera_ House this week, ey this afternoon. There is 8a.d to be plenty of wholesome comedy embiemati- eal of the negro race, which is depictea in every form, from a Southern moke of the plan- tation type to the ebony-hued fashionplate of the North. Hogan himself plays the title role, that ef a Southern coon who has a pen- chant for getting into trouble, and at the finish of the musical absurdity he comes out happy and lucky, suddenly finding himself the recipient of a healthy bank roll. - The musical numbers and singing aud dancing en- sembles are participated,in by young colored women, who help along the lively action that marks the piece throughout. The farce is said to be brimful of wholesome comedy designed to show the versatility of the negro comedian. Regular matinees will’ prevail. _ Monday, May 1, Thalia Theater Company. . + .

Bright vaudeville and extravaganza, some good light opera vocal numbers and ex- cellent comedy are promised. Plays and Players HE opening of the Tyrolean Alps T last night inaugurated the sum- mer concert season in St. Louis. As heretofore, the Alps will be the resort where high-class music will flourish. Much interest contered in the new con- ductor of the orchestra, Adolph Rosen- becker. That he is one of the formost musicians of this country has been known for the last 20 years; so it is as program builder for out-of-door concerts that he must be considered in the in- terest of the Alps’ patrons. Judging from last night's concert, and from the prospects of today’s two concerts, he knows how to hold a happy balance be- tween classical and popular music. Grace Van Studdiford, as the soloist, re- ceived an ovation well merited for her excellent and generous vocal contribu- tion to this concert. She has consented to appear again this afternoon, at the first Sunday afternoon coffee concert, to which all the professional footlght people in the city have been invited. Mrs. Leslie Carter and her leading man, Charles Stevens. have consénted to form a “coffee’’ party in the banquet hall to hear Mrs. Van Studdiford. As the con- cert begins at 4 o’clock, actors and ac- tresses from the other theaters will have time to go out to the Alps between the close of their afternoon and the opening of flie evening performances.

There was a good attend- ance in the afternoon and a large crowd in the evening, when a concert was ren- dered by D. D. Bafunno’s Military Band. No charge is made at Delmar Garden this season, to either the grounds or the bang concert, the same rules prevailing as heretofore. All of the 2% attractions in the large park were in full plast, and the restaurant, bar and refreshment stands were also open. The buildings on the ground have been repainted and renovated. and everything looks bright and cheerful at the resort. The work of selecting the chorus é rehearsing the members for the coming summer begins tomorrow morning. The selections will be made by the musical director, Frank N. Darling, and Lester Brown, the new’ stage director, who has just been signed by the Delmar com- pany. Mr. Darling has been musical conductor for Mr. Savage for several years, and Mr. Brown has the reputa- tion of being one of the best producers of musical comedies and comic operas in the United States. The chorus at Delmar will be the largest of any sum- mer company in America, and the prin- cipals will be the highest-salaried ag- gregation ever put together for a sum- mer show in t. Louis, and provably anywhere else in this country. The Del- mar company has just signed Miss Ce- Cilla Rhoda as prima donna soprano, She was the prima donna of the Tivoli Theater in San Francisco. She was un- der a 12-months’ contract at that popu- lar resort when the earthquake oc- curred. She is young, has a very sweet soprano voice, and is said to be quite pretty and attractive. ~Miss Rhoda was a great favorite with Frisco public. The Tivoli, which which she was con- nected, has the reputation of giving one of the finest operatic performances on the continent. The Delmar company has also. signed a comedian in the person of John E. Young, who is new to BSt. uis- ans, but who is said to be one of the finest singing comedians in America. He Was Starred by E. E. Rice in one of the latter’s big productions and made a tre- mendous hit as the comedian of Pave ine Hall’s production of “Doris.” West End Heights opened its season yesterday with a matinee performance of “Sapho.’’ Ethel Fuller bids fair to be a bigger favorite than last season. She has brought together a supporting company of much merit. Mr. Burt, her leading man, is a young man of striking Personality and artistic temperament. He has been connected with many New York successes. Mr. Raymond Capp, a Britisher ts next in importance of the male cast. He has been in the support of Sir Henry Irving, Charles Hawtrey and Other English stars. Mr. Rowland G. Edwards is playing the same part he layed last year. This season he has been supporting Miss Marie Cahili in ‘Mollie Moonshine.” Mr. Alfred Brit- ton is not a stranger in St. Louis. He was the understudy some years ago for Lawrence Hanley and played Hanley's parts with credit many times. Mr. Brit- ton this winter was with “‘Mrs. Temple's elegram.” Mr. George Olmie, a sterling actor, is the character man. Mr. Olmie has been connected with the foremost Stock companies of this country for years, namely, the Rush Temple and the American in Chicago, the Spooner Stock and the Imperia! Btock in Brooklyn. and the Proctor Stock in New York. OF the ladies, Miss Beatrice Gorden ie an actress of wide experience.

Nobles is one of the most versatile actors and play- Wrights on the American stage, and achieved distinction among play-goers of a former generation in “The Phoe- nix,”’ in which he coined the famous phrase, “And the villain still pursued her.” Mr. Nobles’ character in the first act of that comedy-drama was that of a seedy Bohemian, a bright, brainy fellow, with a love for brandy that keeps him always down’ and }and a washstand, and lighted by a 4 Would ‘place in the temple of native humor.

Seated on a soap box, in a garret furnished with a cot candle stuck in the mouth of an emp- ty bottle, he is writing a chapter of a Serial story for the Weekly Cham- bermaid’s Own, and reading it to the audience as he writes, he develops a scene replete with the keenest and most humorous satire on the trashy, sensational rubbish sometimes called fiction by courtesy. A terrible storm is raging without. The hsp evn) heroine braves it to meet her poor, but honest, lover. She is clad in fleecy clouds of clinging draperies, | white satin slippers and a lace para- sol, She has been decoyed by an anonymous letter. Arriving at the trysting place she beholds, not the clear eye and noble brow of her poor but honest lover., but the sinister leer and fierce mustachios of the hea villain, the Count de Germikoff. e seizes her fiercely, she tears herself from his hatred embrace and flees. The viilain pursues her. She draws from the folds of her fleecy draperies a Colt's navy revolver and fires two bullets through his craven brain, but the villain still pursues her. A third bullet from her trusty weapon breaks his leg and a fourth pierces the body, but the villain still pursues her. The remaining two bullets she sends through his coward heart, but the vil- lain still pursues her. With a wild, piercing scream she climbs a tree; it ig an old ancestral oak that grows on the brink of a yawning chasm. The Villain still pursues’ her. She ho Sracefully from limb to limb. She seizes a frail branch, swings herself off, and clinging to the bending limb, remains suspended in space over the gaping gulf while the fateful line: “To be. continued in our next” leaves the audience in convulsions. .

For the opening week the Mannion brothers have engaged five ee vaudeville acts. Francesca Redding, the clever actress, remembered from re- cent appearances in vaudeville here, supported by a capable company, is the headliner on the program. She will of- fer a sketch called “My Friend From Texas,’’ which should. prove especially pleasing. The complete list of acts in- cludes Suchess Gertrude Dudley, sing- ing comedienne; .Berger brothers, com- edy acrobats; Hatch brothers, musi comedians; Edward Gillen, comedy jug~ gier, and the moving pictures. Among the other attractions at the park are “The Slide the Slide,”” the circle swing, and many free attractions. There will be a concert In the garden matinee and night.

NOTED ATHLETET I QOSEVELT'S SET Secretary Metcalf a Boxer and Wrestler and Moody a Baseball Star. WASHINGTON, May § 12.--Although President Roosevelt has the reputation of being the greatest athlete among pub- lic men in Washington, other prominent officials have records which put them on an equal footfng with the President—in some instances, above him. ‘The Presi- dent does not lay claim to particular skill in any sport except wrestling. He is a good boxer, a fair rider, a tair shot and a very bad tennis piayer. He frank- ly says so. The warm spring weather has set vernment officials tak- many of the ing rides and walks. The President is When he can most strenuous of all. not get outdoors he works in his gym- nasium, and, during the winter, there has been no letup. When he can not get some of his friends to spar or wres- tle with him he has some athletic in- structor come to the White House and mix it up with him. As a boxer the President is danger- ous without being a clean-cut sparrer. He has a fair amount of science, good speed and great endurance. Like ail men who have boxed a great deal, he cannot do himself justice without hit- ting hard. To deliver a blow quickly when sparring with a ees man, it is necessary to put steam behind it. This the President is amply able to do, but a fast, ran man with a long reach has no trouble in outpointing him. On the mat the President's near-sight- edness does not bother him, and his eat strength comes into play. Pro- essional wrestlers who have n on the mat with him declare that Mr. Roosevelt is one of the finest amateur wrestlers they have ever known. As a rider the President does not rank high. He can stick on a horse, but he is a very hard man on the animal he rides. All the White House horses show the effect of hard e, although they are well cared for in the stable. On the tennis court the President's bad eyesight and his peculiarly awkwerd ait militate against great success. The President knows this and does not pre- tend to be a tennis crack. He plays for the fun of it Two Cabinet Athletes. mong the Cabinet officers there Bow pm men with fine athletic records. They are Victor H. Metcalf, Secretary of Commerce and Labor, and Attorney-General William H. Moody. l man. Back in Metcalf is a Yale Vale crew. 75-6 he rowed on the aurconted crews were in atyle then and Metcalf pulled an oar in several inter-collegiate races, When he went to California in 1880, he became 4 member of the Olympic Club of San Francisco. He took up wrestling and at one time held the middleweight amateur championship of San Fran- cisco, He was one oO * aay crack box- ers of the club, as weil. Secretary Metcalf still takes great interest in boxing and wrestling. When the jitsu craze broke out he laughted at the pretensions of the Japs. Mr. Metcalf says he saw jiu jitsu tried in San Francisco 15 years ago. At that time, he declares, the Japanese experts were thrown all over the mat by American wrestlers. Nowadays, Mr. Metcalf, whose health is not always good, confines himself to riding and walking. He ia an ex- cellent horseman. Attorney-General Moody is one of the greatest bas@ball fans in America. Moreover, he knows the game thor- oughly, having been a crack pinyer himself. He w captain of the An dover Academ aseball team in 1872, playing second bases Going from An- dover to Harvard, he had no troubie in making the ‘varsity nine, on which he played in the .outfield for four years. He was counted a good fielder and an excellent hitter. Any after- noon the Attorney-General may be seen sitting on his horse watching small boys playing ball on a vacant lot. Mr. Moody rides nearly every afternoon, and a surely as he spies a baseball game he reigns up and watches ‘t. Secretary Taft carries a bit too much weight nowadays to indulge in strenu- ous athletics, but he rides regularly and takes systematic exercise at home to keep down his weight. He and the Pres- ident often ride together. The greatest athlete in public life here is Frank H. Hitchcock, First Assistant Postmaster-General. Hitchcock was raduated from Harvard in 1893. Be- ore he went to Harvard he attended the Somerville High School at Boston and captained and managed the baseball team. Under his control the team sev- eral times won the interscholastic cham- pionship of Boston. In the spring term of his freshman year at Harvard, Mr. Hitchcock was of- fered the position of first base on the ‘varsity team. This ts almost unique in college athletics, as a freshman has to be an exceptional man to get a position on uny team and then he has to work hard for it. Hitchcock's ability was so rare, however, that the management of the team waived precedent and sought him out. Hitchcock was working hard at ihe time and declined the offer. He says he regrets it to this day. OLD FITZ WOULD BOOST HIS WIFE. Before the late unpleasantness arose between Bob Fitzsimmons and his wife Fitz was the most devoted husband in the world. A Southern newspaper man telis this one on Bob: Fitz was playing In Louisville with his show, “A ght for Love.”’ Mrs. Fitzsimmons, known on the stage as Ju- lia Gifford, was the leading lady. The troupe landed in town Sunday morning, and at noon the newspaper man was talking to Fitz at the theater, “T want to ask a favor,”’ said Fitz. “You know my wife is playing opposite me in the show. Never mind saying anything about my acting, but boost her all you can. You know I am known as a fighter, and don’t need the boost- ing. But she is a young woman and a good actress, and it makes her feel hap- py when the papers speak well of her."

GOOD BALL PLAYERS PRIZE BATS DEARLY y=. ~~"

— What becomes of all the bats that are purchased each spring by the big base- ball clubs? This question frequently has been asked of managers, players and officers, yet nobody has been able to answer it. The New York Americans, for in- stance, bought nearly 200 bats last sea- son, and when the campaign wound up there were not more than a dozen left. Some were broken, others were either lost or stolen, while the rest: were thrown away, to be picked up by the small boy. Ballplayers are cranks on the subject of fine bats. They will spend hours handling the new crop of wagon tongues which are put on the market each spring. Some of them want long, heavy sticks, while others insist upon short, light ones, with a happy medium for many. It is not an uncommon thing to see a star ballplayer have two dozen bats at the opening of a championship season. Poer Ones Soon Discarded. But it does not take long for him to weed out the poor willows and settle down to a few good ones. Then super- stition begins to cut something of a figure, and if a player makes a home run or a timely single which wins a game with a cev~tain bat he believes he cannot get &:ong without it. Then it, is that he will prize the bat so highly that he is not willing to let it out of his sight. He will scrape it with a bit of glass now and then, aft- er_ which he will of] it and put it away in. #ome hiding place so there can’ be no chance of losing it. Should some rival see fit to stea] the bat or purpose- ly mistake it there is always war. Lajoie, the greatest batsman in Amer- ica, began last season with 3 bate. Afver trying them al] out he selected a stick which was one of the longest and heaviest in use on any ball field. With this mighty weapon Larry was able to reach the wide out curves and also bang the straight fast ones to all quarters of the field, much to the cha- grin of the pitchers, who tried in vain to fool him. But Lajole thought so much of this bat that he did not put it in the regular bat bag along with the other sticks used by the Cleveland Americans. Instead, he carried it in a neat leather case, which he put un- der his pillow at night while on the roa d. Worth $500 to Lajote. “It’s the best hat A rt el = and Tewould not part with it for $500." Bradley, a team mate, picked up the bat during a me in Boston, and was so please with it that he asked Lajole if he could use it. At first Lajole ob- tanec strenuously, but as Bradley egged hard he finally consented, so that both men used the bat together the rest of the season, Bradley prizing it | No Amount of Money Will Induce a Strong Hitter to Part With a Suitable and Lucky Piece of Ash—Lajoie and A re His Pet Pellet-Pickler. as much as the champion slugger. Lave Cross is never satisfied with his bats. He generally has 50 of them each Spring, and they are made for him ac- cording to his own ideas. He final sifts them down te a dozen, which h lugs around with him all the season. But he is always ready to swap bats with a player in the business. Hans Wagner, the best hitter in the National League, says all he wants is a bat 3 inches long and the right weight. He says also that some players have to have one bat for slow pitchers. an- other for the speed merchants, and a third for bunting, but that one will suit all purposes as far as he is concerned. Hickman of Detroit can get along with 25 bats when the season begins, but he Says he gives most of them away to other players. When -he gets a good ash he will not allow another player to take it in his hands, because it migat change the luck. Keeler Hard to Please. Willie Keeler, who stood second 1t0 Lajoie in the American League av- erarges, has some bats which he has used for a long time. Keeler has to be suited down to the ground in this respect, however, before he thinks he is ready to face a pitcher. “IT can tell the moment I pick up a bat whether it suits:me or not. It must be a certain length and weight, with just the ringht kind of a handle for me to grip or I will not use it,”’ said Keeler in a talk,at American League headquar- ters the other day. “TI hold my bat dif- ferently from most players, for I do not grip it close to the end of the handie, but near the middle. That gives me a chance to either bunt or hit it out, with- ae the pitcher what I intend 0 do. In the old days the heavy hitters, like Dan Brouthers, Roger Connor, Buck Pwing, Hardie Richardson and men of that stamp. always used long, heavy bats, and they took care of them, too. Mike Kelly was another stickler for good bats, and carried one around with him for two seasons. It was in 1889, when Kélly was the star catcher of the Boston team, that he lost this pet bat. He had been pounding the bal! all the season with great results, and he prized the bat so highly that he had his name painted on it, so that he could not lose it. Kelly finally went to Chicago to play an important series, and took his prize bat out to the grounds. The Chi- cago players had heard of the famous stick, and wanted to see it. But Kelly waved them off. “Kelly’s Too The game was close, inning the score was tied, with Kelly at the bat and two men out. Mark Baldwin was in the box for Chicago. and Capt. Anson told him to put them right over the plate. Kelly finally sin- gled out a beautiful straight ball and sent it clean over the center flelder’s head. The Chicago players were bound to get the bat, and, expecting Kelly to throw it to the ground before he start- ed for first base, they made a concerted rush for the plate to get it. But Kelly did not lose his head. He tucked the bat under his arm, raced around the bases for a clean home run, and then, as he put it back in the bag, he cried out to Anson: ‘No chance to get the Kelly's too smart!”’ ‘Anson insisted there had been no plot to capture the bat, but his men said Kelly's presence of mind made the old man” as angry as a hatter, for Smart.” and in the ninth stick, Pop!

Anson was batting weakly and wanted a new stick.—New York Sun.

HERS. ARE MUCH SUPERIOR Dual Meet at Quaker City Dem- onstrated East’s - Inferiority. PHILADELPHIA, Pa., May 12.—The twelfth aniual relay races of the Uni- versity of Pennsylvania served to attest the marked superiority of the Western athlete over the Eastern in the distance runs and the field events. Indeed, this was the most pronounced feature of the successful annual meet. Trainer Mike Murphy is authority for the statement that the West breeds bet- ter distance runners than the East. in Murphy’s judgment the Michigan four- mile championship team is the best ag- gregation of distance runners ever 4as- sembled on any college team in America. Team Is Unbeatable. To defeat this team Murphy asserts that it would not be possible at the groves time to pick a team from all he Eastern colleges, and to outfoot the Western cracks it would be necessary to select a team of stars from former track teams among the Eastern colleges. The record-making time of the Mich- team can hardly be appreciated by those who did not witness the per- fopmance. The Ann Arbor runners were not pressed at any stage of the four- mile journey, were obliged to set their own pace, and, in fact, so far outclassed their competitors that after the first mile the nearest participant to the Mich- igan representative was at least 10

within 2% yards of lapping the last man in the race. any one of the Michigan team, although Ramey passed his two opponents in the second mile, and gave the last two men an easy task to win. The men who ran of great credit for their own pacing in being able to establish a new mark for the distance. The complete superiority of the Mich- an men was also in evidence in the field events. In the hammer, shot-put and discus,throw the Eastern compe tors were s0 easily outclassed that many spectators not familfar with the standard of Wastern college track and fielj sports were led to believe that the Eastern participants were not represent- ative. This, however, was erroneous. The result of the races raises the old subject of a dual meet between West and East, and there are rumors that such a meet will be arranged after the intercollegiates take place this spring. _) oH

Egan was on the rubber for the winners, and allowed only four hits. Dempsey handled his shoots to perfec- tian, and his throwing to bases was grand. The ‘Arcades’ played an error- less game and were loudly applauded for their nice stops and catches.

Very good. Fellows was also said to be a regular terror, who didn’t only beat his men but almost kilied them! He came and saw and Was conquered, and went back to the land of the free a sad and a wiser man. Frankie Neil was then brought forward—a regular Jack the (ant Killer. There was money galore for him against Bowker. cCompliment- ary and congratulatory feasts were or- dered and prepared (before the fight) to ' celebrate the victory of the American. Invitations were issued broadcast, and when the victory was won there were going to be great rejoicings in the camp of-the Neils. These have not yet been consummated, and Neil went the way of -Mellows, returning to the States a very much battered and a beaten man. Then came the boy from Schenectady, Pinkey Evans, and he was better than either. Neil or Fellows. His hitting pow- er was equal to Jeffries, and he was in the habit of knocking his opponents in- to-space with one ponderous unch. Like Neil's anticipatory feasts, this par- alyzing punch never came off, and Ev- ans, like his fellow citizens, returned to his Western home a beaten man. And now comes Abe Attell, who is not said to be a Titanic hitter, but an ex- eeedingly clever boxer—the cleverest in his class. Knows American Fighters. | have very closely studied the meth- ods of the exponents of the American school-of boxing during the 10 years 1 was in America, and in that time I saw the best of them at work in the ring— Sullivan, Corbett. Kilrain, Dempsey, Mc- Auliffe, Young Griffo, Ryan, Ed Smith, Choyinski, Sharkey, Maher, Griffin, iLyneh, Dixon, Solly Smith, McCarthy, Lavigne and manv others, [I have seen in contests. and can therefore with some reason claim to know something of the American style of boxing. My opinion based on my 10 years’ American experi- ence and my 20 years’ English h experi- | men, ence of boxers and boxing, is that the American boxer is not yet born who can beat Jem Bowker in the ring at equa! weights. I will give my reasons for this opinion. We know that the salient features of the American style of box- ing are (1) footwork and (2) ambi- dexterity. The Americans when out- fighting depeng on their feet to get them out of danger, and use both hands for the counter attack. In close- quarter work in fighting or when they are weaving in to half-arm distance, they are ambidextrous in defense—i. e., they use both hands with which to “cover up’ from an opponent's at- tack. Granting from this that their strong point is footwork, I maintain that Bowker can beet them at their own game, as I can confidently and conscientiously say that I have never seen Joe's equal,. either in England or America, in the use of his feet. The natural impulse of a man who pos- sesses them is to use both hands ‘for attack, and he thus become ambidex- trous, Bowker as a Hitter. it has been said that Bowker is not a hard hitter, and I must confess that when I first saw him fight I leaned to that opinion myself. But after watching him closely during several protracted contests, I was compelled to modify my opinion, and though I cannot say he is a hitter of the Jack Roberts, Gunner Moir or Tom Thomas type, still he is not the lady sparrer which many people seem to think he is. His great and commendable cau- tion has no doubt given reason for this belief, as he never takes a chance avd is content to win safely on points instead of risking sudden and fluky defeat by foolishly “chancing the right.”’ Il have never seen Bowker fight twice alike, as he has always adapted his methods to those of the man in front of him, and by this he proves himself to be the natural fighter. When the day draws nearer for the decision of the contest between Attell and Bowker, I shall have more to say

LONDON, May 12.—The present spell- of glorious weather is ushering in what should be an unusually interesting crick- et season. Already at Lord’s and the Oval the players have started on the practice for the campaign. Those who go to Lord's for their first knock will find the turf in first-class condition. Several of the first-class counties will be met, as well as the two Universities; and the special matches include a fix- ture against the West Indians, on July 16. The time-honored contest, Oxford and Cambridge, is on the 5th of that month, Gentlemen and Players on the 9th, and Eton and Harrow on the 14th. In August the school matches take place, Rugby and Marlborough on the Ist, to be followed by Cheltenham and Haileybury, and then the pick of the ‘ees schools will be tested by the M. Cc. in a match beginning on Bank Holiday. Cantaba for Middlesex. Middlesex has a busy program, but will, as usual, be somewhat handi- capped by the absence of a strong uni- versity contingent in the early con- tests. C, H. Eyre, the Light Blue cap- tain, is qualified, and so are G. G. Na- pier, C. Palmer and C. C. Page. The last-named made .117 against Lan- cashire last year at Lord’s. Vogler, the South African test match player, wil) not be qualified for another year, but E. Mignon. another fast right-handed bowler, is a native, and should be worth a trial. The schoolmaster contingent will, like the university. not be available unti? August. To bear the brunt of the bow!l- ing until then will fall upon B. J. T. Bosanquet, Tarrant, Trott and Hearne. none of whom was more than passably successful last season. If KE. Field. J. H. Hunt and J. _H. Stogdon can get away for the early matches the pros- | pects of the ex-champions would great- ly be enhanced. Middlesex will meet counties in the county championship: Gloucestershire, Notts, Sussex. York- shire, Somerset, Surrey, Lancashire, Essex and Kent. the following Colonials to Assist Surrey. On the south side of the river, Surrey has, as usual, a very lengthy and busy program, and there are several new men whose names are likely to become familiar to the public. One of them is A. Marshall, the young Queensland cricketer, who bowled so finely for the Gentlemen of England against Oxford University last May, and played a good innings in the bargain. He is a native cpa wore and was born on.June 22, Marshall used to play -with the South Brisbane Club, and scored over ) runs in one season, besides taking 5) wickets in electorate matches, the equivalent of our county matches. He drives brilliant- ly to the off, cuts neatly and is sound in his onside play. As a bowler he is right-handed fast medium. with. the highest delivery, and his fielding at mid-off and in the country js irre- proe.chable. This voung plaver He stands 6 feet 3 who have seen him consider he great future in county cricket. It has been rumored § that Nourse, the South African Test match batsman, will play for Surrey. It is/| quite true he is coming home for a holi-! day. and, as he was born at Croydon, he has a birth qualification. He is a capable bat, a good bowler, and would be a welcome addition to any club in the world. There are other voung men of whom much may be heard, but it Is Detter to let them have a trial. Amony those on the ground staff will be Ducat, ithe Woolwich Arsenal footballer. R. E. H. Bailey and P. R. May, the Cantabs, who are still at the 'Varsity, may both be seen in the field for Surrey during the season. Lord Dalmeny, M. P., will captain the a giant. Those | has a} iS quite inches high. a.

Crawford to re- main in England, instead of accepting untold satisfaction to those who predict a very brilliant future for this fine young cricketer. A start will be made with a very long program on May 1 against a Gentlemen of England side, led by Dr. W. @G. Grace. The county fixtures start on Muay against Hampshire, and home and home matches follow with North- amptonshire, Leicestershire, Essex, Worcestershire, Lancashire, Gloucester- shire, Notts (at the Oval on August Bank Holiday), Sussex, Kent, Derby- shire, Warwic shire, Yorkshire, Middle- gex. Cambridge and Oxford Universi- ties will also be met, and on June 24 the West Indians visit the Oval. The Gen- tlemen and Players match will take place on July 16, and at. the end of the season the champion county will play All England for the benefit ‘of charity. The strength of the county is tn the number of young players. The amateurs. N. A. Knox and J. N. ford, with Hayes, Lees and Smith, constitute a great attack, of variety an@ change, and Surrey bowling should be really good this sum- mer, The proceeds of the Yorkshire match are to be set aside as a benefit for Wal- ter Lees, and everyone wii wish this excellent allround player a bumper, He has done valiant service, not -enly with the ball, but also with the bat. This gental professional, who is every inch a trier, is right at the top of Enelish bewlers of the day. Under fhe care of Apted, the Oval turf is in excellent condition, and many big scores will be seen this year on the arena most beloved of our Cockney cricketers. Essex, the East Ender's ground, will, I a , succeed in again attracting the During the last few years there an been a great slump in Essex crick- 9 as a drawing power, and apparent- ly they go from bad to worse, The report just issued is indeed melancholy reading, and if the county cannot make ends meet with a grant in a test match season, they are not likely to in an ordinary one. Is it want of unity? Do not the team do well enough? ‘or js there no demand for first-class cricket? Essex have played consistently wel) ageinst Australian teams, and have a delightful. pair of batsmen in Perrin and McGahey, to say nothing of the Rev. F. H. Gillingham and Maj. Tur- ner. A. P.

This result has not been obtained without patient and painstaking work on the part of Coach Liston, who has labored with the boys because of enthusiasm and love for the game. The Smith boys are in a game from the moment it starts, all coaching, hus- ‘” and fighting hard for the victory. A such spirit that wins baseball] Dea Robinson of St. Louis U., Thomas of Washington, Smith of C. “B. .. and Campbell of Smith are probably the best hitters on local college baseball fields. Tom January is laying such a fast article of ball in the C. B. C. outfield that his removal to one of the nine’s in- field positions is being considered. Brittingham, former captain of the Manual Training School nine. has left school for parts unknown. It is pre- sumed that he has gone to his home at El Paso, to take up professional base- ball. His loss will be severely felt at the Orange and Black school, ae he would have been a tower of strength to the eleven and was one of the fastest men in intercollegiate circles in the dashes. Smith students are using the campus every evening for practice. Wade_of Manual is trying to improve his form in the use of the weights.

That day has passed when Yale, Har- vard, Princeton, Pennsylvania and Cor- nell are the sole factors in determining the intercollegiate track and field cham- pionships of the East, as recent meets have qemonstrated. Dartmouth, Am- herst and Swarthmore are almost as strong as any of the big five. Capt. Tom January of the Christian Brothers’ College team is ready to go on the warnhath. He holds that there is the making of a great ball team at the college, but the boys are too lazy to practice. On the other hand, the boys accused of being lazy seem very busy. They claim that to graduate means study, and to study takes so —— time, so that none is left for base- ball. The discovery that good ballplayers exist at the college outside those on the team came about because of the collegiate department being defeated by the commercial department. Henry McKerna, a large, nd-look- ing fellow, who can jit an run the bases like a professional, {g perhaps the best of the lot. In the last game with the Commercials his catching was su- perb, and his refusal to play on the reg- ular college team is regarded as a shame. Another good player is Brit- tingham. He is a good first sack- er, and ranks favorably with Trice, the regular college player. He should be a player on the team, but his claim is that studies are the main thing fer him. Two more of the graduating class that are fair players, but study rather than play ball are E. Brockmeyer and Fau- doa. Both can play well, but their absence in the field. is hardly felt on the team. Most of these named are big fellows, while those who play regularly on the team are small youngsters. Schuetz. the shortstop of the Con- cordia téam, who’ has been playing in the Trolfey League on Sundays un- der the name of Palmer, is said to be very much outraged at: the exposure of his mingling professional and ama- teur baseball. He threatens to retali- ate and expose every one of the St. Louis University players for past in- fringements of amateur restrictions. The Christian Brothers’ players are thoroughly imbued with the idea that they can defeat St. Louis University and are earnestly practicing in antici- pation of. the last game of the series, which will be played May 19 Grover, the. star sprinter of the city, is trying to get permission from the Washington University Athletic Board to enter the meet to be given under the auspices of the St. Louis Playgrounds Association June 9.

YOUNG GOLFERS DEAT ELDERS White’s Record a Forecast of Passing of the Old Guard. NEW YORK, May 10.—This is going to be a great season for the young bloods in ‘“‘golfdom.’’ The win of A. L. White,’ a Harvard student at Lake- wood, recently, is an indication of what may be expected quite frequently dur- ing the next four months. If it were not for Walter J. Travis, the old guard would be compelled to take to the woods altogether. Glance over the list of those who qualified in the first 16 of the Lake- wood open tournaments and it will be seen that nine of the number were what might be termed youngsters. When the tourney had narrowed down to the final only a pair of college boys were left. On the other hand, look at the second division. There we find no less than 18 who would have to accept the sobri- quet of veteran. Very much the same proportion holds good in the third and fourth sets. Now the question which naturally forces itself upon us is, why do the young fellows crowd the veterans 80 roughly in the race for chief honors? They say golf is a game for all ages; sultable for a child or man 90 years of age. Then why should the youth of 18 with less experience defeat the man of 40? On explanation is that confidence, so necessary to success in golf, is more fre- quently found in youth. As the play- er advances in years he begins to think of all the bad shots in his last round. or suddenly discovers that he can’t use his masie right, or some other club. He changes his style, tries longer clubs and by and by has so many things on his mind when Standing over his ball that there ds a little wonder he fusses. The boy, nine times out of ten, is ever on the improve; he has not got to that stage of experiments and un- certainty; and then the youth has prab- ably had better instruction at the start. It is a comparatively easy matter for him to drop into good swing, while the old chap, who has probably played baseball in his younger days, is less supple and is more apt to develop a cramped style. The old fellow is full of theories; the youngster has no theo- ries, just hits the ball and generally wins.

(b) To reform things in general over here. I found that there was no opening for a real reformer in the U. S. A., inasmuch as the’ magazines were up- setting municipa] rings, cornering the Beef Trast and camping on the trail of every corporation that seemed to be niaking money. I said: “If I wish - to make a ten'strike as a reformer | must seek new fields.” So I decided to flit through Europe

The Acting Consul had used a small office adjoining his own place of busi- ness on the water front. Mr. Wil- loughby called on the former Consul and found him to be a dignified Brit- isher of the gloomy and reticent sort, with a mustache shaped like a horse- shoe. The dethroned official. was eourteous, but not cordial. He was saying good-by to some easy money, and the situation was not one ealcu- HE WAS COURTEOUS. as the Consul had a business caller about once a month, there was no need of maintaining two establish- ments. Already he had taken into his employ and his warmest personal friendship a native named Franciotto. This name seemed formal and hard to remember, so Mr. Willoughby rechris- tened him “Jim.” He liked this native in spite of his color, because he was in Gallivancia who not believe when they first heard it, but to testify regarding the most extraor- —_—_—=_ never had been convulsed before—not even when a neighboring volcano blew off.

Fearing that this subject mavn. “as been touched upon -by other visitors, I shall disregard Paris and go straight to my task of reforming the consular service. 4 A DIFFICULT JOB. + To begin with, usually the Ameri- cah Consul is all right in his place, ‘but his place is at home. Overpaid, possibly, but he does his best to earn If he kept all the money that he handled in the course of a year he couldn't be a real- ly successful grafter. He finds him- self plumped down in a strange coun. try. About the time that he begins to learn the language and has saved up ‘enough money to buy evening clothes he is recalled and goes back home with a “dress suit” on his hands. Take the case of Mr. Eben Willoughby of ‘Michigan. It is a simple narrative, but it will give you a line on the short- 4 ~=—s comings of our consular service, and it will carry its own moral. “Old Man” Willoughby, as he was o “known at home, owned and edited a ____ Suecessful daily paper on the outskirts of the Michigan pine belt. He was a Sane wheel horse in the party and for 40 “years had supported the. caucus nom- “Anees. The-~aspiring politician who ?, | ~ wished to go to Congress had to wo see _ “Willoughby with his hat in his hand. - He helped to make and unmake Ag United States senators and was con- ie ~pulted regarding appointments. But he never had asked anything for him- self. His two boys went to college at Ann Arbor, and when the younger es tame home with his degree and began » take a hand in running the paper, Mr. Willoughby found himself, for the first time in his life, relieved of weating responsibilities. Was well fixed financially and » of life-—not due to be BE oo aes - si oe » : 3 ; : , but ready to take Shs “Ngahorels.. Cre's : 2 Te? , ‘ Tay 40s oe Anes . Rae Oe eters &

its of his native leughby, who in the home circle was known as “Ma,” was a devotee to the Chautauqua Cirele, and she, too, had an ambition born of much read- ing to pack up and go somewhere. The family doctor said that a visit to some milder climate, far from the rigors of Northern winter, would be a positive benefit to her. GETTING THE JOB. So Mr. and Mrs. Willoughby began to study the atlas. One of the sons suggested to “Old Man” Willoughby that he could take a trip to an at- tractive southern country at the mini- mum expenses by securing an appoint- ment as Consul. And, of course, apart from the financial advantage, there would be the glory of representing a great nation and hoisting the flag over a benighted foreign population. The suggestion appealed very strongly to Mr. Willoughby. He wrote to the Congressman and Senator and wanted to know if there was a vacancy—-sal- ary no object, but he would like to go into a mild and equable climate where he could pick cocoanuts. His friends at Washington simpls overturned the State Department in their eagerness to give him what he wanted. They discovered that there was somewhere on the map a city called Gallivancia, It was down by the southern seas—the abode of. per- petual summer and already enjoying a preliminary boom as a resort. The acting Consul. had been a British sub- ject. The pay was so small that no enterprising American had wanted the job. “United States Consul at Galli vancia” reverberated pleasantly in the imagination of Mr. Willoughby. He told his friends at Washington to go after the place, and in less than no time his daily paper announced that he had “accepted” the appointment. The news of his appointment gave one section of Michigan the trembles for several days, and the Willoughby family was bathed in a new impor- tance. Mrs. “Willoughby was given a formal farewell by the ladies of the congregation assembled in the church parlors. Mr. Willoughby was present.- ed with a jeweled badge by the mem- bers of his lodge and the band sere- naded him the night before he went away. IN “WONDERLAND.” He and “ma” stood on the hack platform and gazed with misty eyes at the flutter of. handkerchiefs on the station platform until the train swung around a ¢urve and they found them- selves headed straight for Gallivancia and glory. Both of them left a little heart-achy and dubious, but it was too late to hack out, At New York they boarded a ship and after severa] days of unalloyed misery they landed at Gallivancia. Now, Gallivancia is the make-be. lieve capital of a runt of an island having no commercial or other jm. portance. No matter where an island may be dropped down, some nation must grab it and hold it for fear that

At a dinner party the wife of the Governor preceded the wife of the Magistrate, and so on. The women smoked ciga- rettes and gambled at bridge, while every man who had won a medal at a shooting match pinned it on his coat when he went to a-ball. It was a third-rate copy of court life, but these small dignitaries went through the motions and got a lot of fun out of it in one way and another. If we can- not afford a social position that is real ivory, the next best thing is to get one that is celluloid. It had all the intri- cate vices of a true nobility without the bona fide titles to back them up and give the glamour. OUT OF THEIR CLASS. Into this nest of pretentious, cere- monious, strutting little mortals came “Old Man” Willoughby and “Ma” Willoughby of Michigan. Of the out- ward form and artificialities of a Eu- ropeanized aristocratic seciety they were most profoundly ignorant. Mr. Willoughby did not even own a “dress suit.” When he got a clean shave and put on a string tie and backed into a “Prinee Albert” coat he felt that he had made a very large concession to the mere fripperies of life. And “Ma” had her own ideas about low-necked gowns! Can you see Mr. and Mrs. Willough- The women exchanged ward an old-fashioned apple-pie couple from the tall timber? Mind you, I am not poking fun at the Willoughbys. In the opinion of every real American a man of the Willajghby*type is worth a 10-acre lot full of these two-by-four titles. The Willoughbys were good people—

several account books and a letter press, all being the property of the United States of America. Mr. Willoughby had rented a house on a hill overlooking the town and decided to plant the consulate in the front room of his residence. Inasmuch by’s social standing in Gallivancia was at all subject to doubt that doubt yanished on the day when he and “Jim” came down to move the office effects to the house on the hill. Mr. Willoughby did something that day which convulsed Gallivancia as it

Wr A TERRIBLE SCANDAL. What do. you suppose he did? No) effort of the imagination can carry you within hailing distance of the hor- rible truth, so let the suspense be end- ed. Mr. Willoughby, with his own hands, helped to move the furniture from the old consulate up to his own} residence. He put the table on top of his head and balanced it carefully and carried it through the open streets of Gallivancia! -An official, a represen- tative of a great power, performing cheap, manual labor! Words are altogether inadequate to describe the degree of obloquy which Mr. Willoughby earned for himself by this wnheard-of exhibition. In Galli- vancia,it was not considered quite the thing to indulge in mental effort, ‘and for anyone except a menial of the low- est social order to perform physical labor was almost inconceivable. The new Consul was set down as either a harmless imbecile or an altogether new specimen of barbarian. In either case he was not a fit associate for well-bred gentlemen, and Gallivancia proceeded to ignore him and “Ma.” That is, they pretended to ignore them, but as a matter of fatt they-watched them at a distance and heard daily reports of their familiarities with servants, their fondness for outlandish American cookery and other eccentricities. It was all vastly diverting to the tiny aristocrats of Gallivancia, but it was pretty hard on Mr. and Mrs. Willough- by—homesick, hungry for spring chicken and garden truck, and yet ashamed to pick up and go home so

SUNDAY MORNING-ST. LOUIS POST-DISPATCH—MAY _13, 1906

| DOZEN TRUSTS ARE ON TRIAL IN FEDERAL COURTS | Standard Oil Oase Being Pre- pared Looked Upon “as Most Important.

By Wire From the Washington Bureau of the Post-Dispatch. WASHINGTON, May 12.—Not since the foundation of the Government has the Department of Justice been engaged in the prosecution of such important lit- igation against trusts as is now occu- Pying the attention of Attorney-General Moody, his entire corps of assistants and some of the most eminent counsel of the country, who have been employed to agsist the Government. A dozen im- portant cases are now: pending: in the Federal courts or are about to be pre- sented by the Department of Justice. It will be some months before the Government will begin its suit against the Standard Oil Co., which will be the mést important piece of. litigation ever undertaken by the Federal Government, as it affects nearly every home in the land. This prosecution will be brought with a view to securing an order re- straining the trust and its officials from continuing the unlawful acts which stifle competition. This action will be bretght as the result of the investiga- tion. of the business methods of the Oil Trust conducted by James R. Garfield, the Commissioner of Corporations, Mr. Garfield found that the Standard

Oil Co. controls the market for 23,000,000 of the 26,000,000 barrels of oil refined each year; that it has been and is now receiving secret rates and other unjust and illegal discriminations in its favor; that secret rates from Olean to Roch- ester give the Standard Oil Co. abso- lute control of the New York trade; that it has maintained almost absolute control of almost the whole section of the country south of the Ohio River and east of the Mississippi River by means of secret rates and open discrim- inations of rates from Whiting, Ind., and during 194 the Standard saved about $750,000 through secret rebates dis~ covered by the Bureau of Corporations. Attorney-General Moody and Solicitor- General Hoyt, Assistant Attorneys-Gen- eral Purdy, Russell, MacReynold and Robb and the other legal force of the Department of Justice are now ¢ ged in preparing the case against the Stan- dard. In a short time some of the best legal talent of the country will be em- ployed to assist in making out its case against the Oil Trust. It is appreciat- ed by the legal officers of the Govern- ment that they will have the battle of their lives in convicting the Standard Oll of the violations of the law with which it is charged, as the trust has in its service some of the most astute law- yers in the country and that they will contest every inch of ground with the Government in this prosecution. It is for these reasons that the Gov- ernment will proceed with utmost de- liberation and its case will be prepared with the greatest care before it.is pre- sented in court. This prosecution may be brought in the United States Circuit Court in New York City. 3 During the fall term of the United States Circuit Court of the Northern

cution of the case against the Beet Trust will be a A Attorney-Gen- | eral Moody, his assistants in the Depart- ment of Justice and the United States District Attorney at Cntcago instituted @ proceeding on behalf of the United States against the officials of the Beef Trust. The individual officers were prosecuted because it was the belief of Roosevelt, Attorney-General Moody and some of the leading legal advisers of the President in’ the Senate that the of- ficiais of the Beef Trust could be sen- tenced to jail if convicted under the law prohibiting them from conspiring to en- ter into a Gombination in restraint of trade. Judge Humphrey upset all the plans of the administration by holding that thege officials could not be prose- cuted individually,- but that the prosecu~ tion must be brought against the cor- poration under the Sherman anti-trust law, which provides for the imposition “3 . fine, but no jail sentence upon con- viction. Renew Packers’ Case. The Government is ready to proceed with the prosecution of the case against the packers. They are charged in the bill of complaint filed in the United States Circuit Court at Chicago with en- tering into a combination in restraint of trade; that they control not only the price paid for cattle on the hoof, but the price of dressed meats and other pack- ing house products. They are also charged with dividing the territory of the country between themselves. thus making it impossible for competition to survive; that they are granted rebates by the trunk railroad lines entering at Chicago, Kansas City, St. Louis and oth- er points, and in this manner secure such an advantage over their competi- tors that independent packers have been forced to retire from the field. The pe- tition asks for an order dissolving the combination, restraining the packers from doing the things with which they are charged. and of which the Govern- amemesin n-ne samme

ment is prepared to prove they are gullty. | Two other important suits which the Federal Government will institute in the near future will be the prosecution of the anthracite and bituminous coal trusts. These cases are important to ee pecee because they will have a bearing on the price paid for coal used in cooking food and keeping themselves and their children warm during the winter. They will be important because practically all the manufacturing con- cerns and business houses of every character depend on the product of the soft coal mined by. the bitum{nous trust. On the price of this coal depends largely the cost of the material used in clothing the people. These two cases have only reached the initial stages and it will be some time before the Government wil] be ready to take issue with the trusts in the courts. Charles E. Hughes of New York, the man who exposed the life insurance frauds and Pf ge and Alexander ms er Jr. of Philadelphia have been employed by the Department of Juatice to examine the evidence secured by the Interstate Commerce Commission and prepare the cases against the coal trusts. Many Railroads Involved. This prosecution will involve the Pennsylvania Railroad, B. & O., the Delaware, Lackawanna & Western and other railroad companies which contro! nearly all the mines in the anthracite coal fields, and by transporting coal over their lines and refusing to furnish cars to independent coal operators have secured control of the market for coal and have increased the price to the consumers. These roads have, it is charged, engaged in the sale of coal produced in their mines at figures which amount to a rebate on the freight rate. This practice has been held by the In- terstate Commission to be a violation of law and the prosecution will be for the urpose of restraining the _ railroads rom selling their own products; to stc the practice of granting rebates in au forms; compelling the roads to furnish independent operators with cars for the transportation of their products, and compelling the roads to confine their business to the operation of railroads. The same practice has been followed by the bituminous coal trust. and it is the belief of theAttorney-General that the Government has now enough evi- dence to justify a prosecution which will terminate in favor of the Govern- ment. Several days ago the department en- tered a suit against the drug trust at Indianapolis. In a bill of complaint pre- sented in the United States Circuit Court, an injunction is asked by the Government against the wholesale and retail @rug associations, directing them to refrain from continuing an illegal competition in restraint of trade. Ac- cording _to the Gavernment’s plea, the drug trust is an unincorporated cor- poration consisting of 90 per cent of the wholesale and retail drug dealers of the country. Before Selling goods to a prospective purchaser the trust re- quires him to become a member of the association, and to agree to sell goods ata price fixed by the trust. If any dealer fails to keep this agreement tRe trust declines to sell him any more goods and he is practically driven oO = ag PE cou suit will be pressed a erm of > at Tedlenasein the Circuit Court Victory Over Paper Trust. A prosecution of the Paper Trust has ended in a victory in the United Sthktes Circuit Court for the District of Min- nesota. This trust was indicted by a grand jury for entering into a conspir- acy in restraint of trade and for driv- ing its cdmpetitors from the market. The officers of the trust declined to | Show their books to the United States District Attorney and refused to an- swer questions relating to the business , Of the trust on the ground that to do so would incriminate them. This question was taken to the United | States Supreme Court,’ which directed | the officers to exhibit their books and answer the questions. This Court also held that these officials could not be prosecuted individually, but that any evidence they gave could be used by the Government against the corporation and other officials who did not furnish

This decision was so clearly against the contentions of the trust that when the case was recalled this week the Gen- eral Paper Co. attorneys withdrew all pleas,. the officers paid the $100 fines assessed for contempt of court at the time they refused to answer the questions and it was announced that the company would wind up its affairs by June 16. When the suit was filed, paper was selling at $2.25 to $2.50 per hundredweight, but lately sales have been made at $1.8 per hundredweight. The Tobacco Trust will be made a de- fendant in a case to be brought by the Department of Justice in the United states Circuit Court for the Southern District of New York. This trust has not been indicted, but its officers, when being examined by the grand jury, de- clined to produce its books and refused to answer questions relating to the op- erations of the trust on the ground that they would incriminate themselves by doing so. This question was taken to the Supreme Court, which decided against the officers, and directed them to produce the books and answer the questions, as they could not be prose- cuted, but the prosecution would lie against the corporation. The examina- tion before the grand jury will be re- sumed in the fall. Sugar Trust Indicted. An indictment against the Sugar Trust has-been secured in the Circuit Court for the Southern District of New York for obtaining rebates from rail- roads frem railroads on shipments of sugar in violation of the Elkins anti- rebate law. This indictment was se- cured a few days ago and the prosecu- tion will be pushed at the fall term of the court. An. investigation is now being made into the conduct of the Fertilizer Trust, which has throttled competition. This case will soon be prepared by the De- partment of nore aes action against inaugurated. rh petition for & dissOlution of the un- lawful combination to maintain prices entered into by the Blevator Trust -has been presented to the United States Cir- cuit Court for the district of California.

LIND AFTER ONLY PROMISES FOR THE IRISH FANATIO’S RELIGION NOT FIREPROOF. Special Cable of the Post-Dispatch and New York World. BOMBAY, May 12.—A strange act of fanaticism causing the loss of several lives has occurred at Nasad, near here. A Sadhu who claimed to be the divin- ity piled wood at the bottom of a deep pit, and having set it ablaze, invited be-

lievers to descend with him into the flames. He promised them immunity from harm, and that they would have the happitess to obtain a glimpse of heaven. The Sadhu and nine disciples—five of whom were women—then descended the pit, but had no sooner reached the bot- tom than they began to shout fer help. A hurried attempt was made to raise them by ropes, but the ropes broke, and the fanatics fell back into the flames. Three were rescued, but have since died.

PETERSBURG, May 12.—A stir was caused by the recent police search The search wags made in every part of the building. Much damage resulted from the fact that the police did not know how to handle apparatus in the chemical and | physical laboratories.

When the police approached the lecture halls were filled with students and a fight was narrowly averted. The professors asked the stu- dents to let the police do their duty. Not satisfied with the search in the university, the police ransacked the pri- vate offices and residences of the pro- fessors, causing much indignation.

ROM LIBERALS Walsh Sees Discouragement in Slowness of English Min- istry for Reforms.

EVICTIONS STILL ON

Money Is Not Appropriated for Carrying Out of Land Laws. BY RICHARD D. WALSH, When the present Liberal Government was formed, promises were made that the administration of Ireland should be brought into accord with Irish ideas. These promises were made not only in the King’s speech, but by the respon- sible ministers of the Crown in Parlia- ment. lt was on the strength of the repre- sensations made by Liberal leaders during the general election, in reference to the future government of Ireland, that the Irish voters of Great Britain accorded support to the Liberal party and had it returned to power by such an unprecedented majority. Many good friends of Ireland ex- pressed considerable doubt as to the wisdom of this policy, contending that the cause would best be served by hav- ing the two great English parties as equally balanced as possible. In view, however, of the coercive and reaction- ary measures of the Tory Government during the preceding 20 years, and espe- clally because of the attempt to dis- franchise a large number of Irish con- stituencies, besides other equally strong reasons, it was the only course which prudence and patriotism alike suggested to the Irish leader—John Redmond—to adopt. It may be somewhat early yet to-judge the actions of English ministers in the present-day affairs of Ireland, but so far there is a wide gulf between their promises and performances. The mal- administration of the Land Act of 1903 is one of the most serious charges again present Irish officialdom. The Estates Commissioners have full au- thority to restore the evicted tenants, but are blocked by the British Treasury, which refuses necessary funds. The ex- cuse cannot be given by the Treasury that it has not sufficient funds at its disposal to carry out this most import- ant work. The Presbyterian Queen's College of Belfast has recently been granted a sum of nearly $100,000 for educational purposes, but the deplorable condition of the evicted tenants is ignored. More- over, the Catholics of Ireland are not given a cent for the improvement of higher education; although the country is overtaxed $75,000,000 a year. , When such conditions -exist. under the present Liberal Government, it is no wonder that Mr. Redmond should de- scribe the situation as ‘“‘complex, .diffi- cult and dangerous.”’ os It is no surprise also that the emi- nent prelate, Cardinal Logue, ‘should ex- press his distrust of the English min- istry of the day, a devlare that the present outlook for Ireland is anything but encouraging.’ The only remedy for Dublin Castle rule in Ireland, which is always subversive of popular interest and prosperity, is a native legislature, which will be. directly responsible to the people. Until this !s done it is use- less to expect that either peace or con- tentment will be permanent conditions in the Emerald Isle. I had thought that evictions in Ire- land were a thing of the past, but landlordism is evidently not yet quite dead. A peculiarly brutal and an abort- ive attempt was made two weeks ago in the neighborhood of Swineford, Coun- ty Mayo. A tenant named McAndrew held a patch of bog land from an in- dividual named Joynt. For a long series of years he had paid h's rent by re- mittance of the wages of his labor di- rect from England. The holding itself could never yield enough to pay the rent, but the man tenaciously clung to the place, which had been the home of his childhood. When he became too old to labor in England—he is now between 80 and 90 years of age—he was ruthless- ly evicted from his old home. He re- turned to its shelter because it was the only home the old man knew. In order to vindicate the majesty of the law a local magistrate sentenced him to three months’ imprisonment. On his release from prison he went straight ‘to his hut, and another attempt was made to evict him. But his physical condition was such as to make his removal im- possible. If he survives, he will prob- ably. get:a longer ‘sentence for «his heinous crime. Barry O’Brien of London, who is treasurer of the Fontenoy memorial fund, announces that he has received $750 of the $1500 necessary to complete the memorial. The greatest interest has been created fn this mcvement in Belgium, and a free site has been of- fered for the monument in the village of Tournal and also in Fontenoy. The monument will be erected next year, and it is to be hoped that the com- mittee in charge will then have sgyf- ficient funds to complete it. The idea is one that appeals to the sentiment of ‘all those who believe in Ireland as a na- against tion. When Bailie John Ferguson passed away at Glasgow a week ago, Ireland lost one of her most devoted and dis- tinguished sons. Ferguson came of the stanch Presbyterian stock of UWister which, during the troublous days of 1798, gave so many patriotic sons to Ireland. He was a close friend and co- laborer with Isaac Butt when the lat- ter gentleman was the leader of the Home Rule party in the British Isles. Fergusos was a forceful and eloquent speaker and I have frequently heard him thrill many a crowded audience in the Round Room of the old Rotunda at awe t may tnterest some of readers to learn that Berenese Mesieae Coutts has just entered on her ninety- third birthday. She was a great friend and helper-to the fisher folk of South. western Ireland, to whom she gave the necessary money to buy modern boais and netting. In the early part of the nineteenth century her father, Sir Fran- eis Burdett, was intimately associated with the principal leaders in the Na.

SOME SENATE WIRES : —-- o- TOPEKA, Kan., May 12.—Republican candidates for United States Senator are inclined to worry over the course of Victor Murdock, Representative from the Eighth District. Mr. Murdock is still retaining possession of the Federal patronage in the old Seventh District, and the senatorial candidates can see no reason for such a course unless the Wichita man expects to use that end of the State in his fight for the sena- torship. It has been the custom where a dis- trict had no Congressman to allow the Republican nominee to handle the pa- tronage, but it is said that Victor Mur- dock is still naming postmasters for the southwestern counties and that the rec- ommendations of E. H. Madison, the Republican nominee for Congress, are disregarded. There has been no clash between Murdock and Madison. but the latter has been given to understand : t Murdock will name the postmas- ers

Graves Is Seeking Party’s Nomination Only for the Short Term. ,

Politicians skilled in round-up votes, lawyers with ingrained distaste to whirl- wind canvasses for judicial honors, and the onlookers who enjoy the passing show of politics for the fun of it, are deeply interested in the spectacular cam- paign now being waged by Judge Arche- laus Marius Woodson of St. Joseph for Judge of the State Supreme Court. Judge Woodson has just completed a vote-soliciting tour that included every one of the 114 Missouri counties and more than one-half the 2885 voting pre- cincts in the State. Travel-stained, footsore and physically almost exhausted by his arduous cam- paign, Judge Woodson came to S&t.

Butler Club to Front. The St. Louifs vote is worth 161 votes to the candidate who captures it, and is more than one-tenth of the entire mem- bership of the convention. It is con- trolled mainly by Senator Thomas E. Kinney and the St. Louis Democratic Club, the pet organization of “Col.”” Ed Butler and his son, former Congressman James J. Butler. The Jefferson Club controls several wards, with an aggregate of probably 66 delegates. . ' How Judge Woodson expects to jar- monize theses. conflicting interests sé as to make St. Louis solid for his can- didacy is a puszling question to politi- cians. But to Judge. Woodson's friends the Froblem is simplicity itself. “Just wait,” they say, “and watch the present, according to ‘their figures, 460 St. Louis boys climb into the Woodson bandwagon.”’ Supporters of Judge Woodson point with pride to his present strength. At out of the 1100 delegates who will sit in the Democratic convention have been} instructed to vote for Judge Woodson for the lohg term nomination, which is 10 years. An additional hundred are said to_be friendly to him. Davis His Opponent, The only other avowed candidates for the nomination are Judges Sam Davis of Marshall and W. W. Graves of But- ler. The latter was appointed to the Supreme beneh recently to fill the va- cancy occasioned by the retirement of Judge Marshall. Judge Graves is a candidate for the short term, two years.

Special Cable to the Post- New York W BUDAPEST, May 12.—Court society is commenting on the late marriage of Princess Anna Maria Petrovna to the Italian circus performer, Fontana. Fontana is a marvel performer on horseback, and has a well-shaped form, which shows to great advant- age during his performances, in which he wears tights. While performing here women of high society flocked in large numbers to see him. Princess Petrovna went to see Fon- tana perform every day for 10 days and never failed to send him a bou- quet. Finally she secured an intro- duction and married him after a brief courtship. St. Louls has more Post-Dispatch

ARKANSAS CITY, Kan., May i2.— Sheriff Welfelt went over to Silverdale and brought three men into Arkansas City to answer the charge of stealing five ee. valued at $75 from J. J. Will- lams. The men are F. D. Chubb, G. L. Badley and Oliver Meredith, who are said to reside in Hardy. They were taken before Judge McIntyre and their bonds were fixed at $600, which they could not give. These hogs were stolen some days ago and the owner traced them down into the rocky country in the northeast corner of Kay County. There all trace was lost and the searchers were spend- ing their time hunting around among the hills and brush when one of the happened to hear a grunt. Cafeful in-

vestigation developed t fact that the hogs were hid in a well concealed cave.

Other candidates may appear in the next 10 days, but Judge Woodson ap- | ears to have the situation so thorough- | y in hand that possible aspirants hesi- tate to enter the race. The salary of a Supreme Judge is $4500 a year. That Judge Woodson has already spent several times that amount in his effort- to attain higher judicial distinction is conceded by his closest friends. Judge Woodson began his campaign for Supreme Judge six years ago. He did not make much headway, but pre- pared for an aggressive contest in the 1902 convention. Won by Letter- Writing. Gov. Dockery, who was intimately as- sociated in a political way with Judge Woodson’s brother, superintendent of the State Insane Asylum for St. Joseph, threw the support of his- administration to Judge Woodson. But Martin L.. Clardy and=James M. Seibert, then Excise Commissioner of St. Louis, supported. Judge James L. Fox of Fredericktown, who won an easy vic- tory over the Woodson forces. But Judge Woodson was anything but dismayed by defeat. He went to some of the bosses and told them he wanted their support next time. He confided his aspirations to the delegates who had op- posed him, and got them to promjse that if they sat in the succeeding con- vention he should be first choice. Judge Woodson then began to writ letters to his political friends all over the State. No county was omitted. Next he ad- dressed communications to most of thé Democratic members of the State Bar Association. Won County Conventions. Having received many assurances of support he went out into the State and personally solicited county conventions to support his candidacy. One county after another instructed for Woodson, with the resylt that he won the Democratic judicial nomina- tion in 1904. He considered the nomination equiva- lent to election. What happened is his- tory. The Democratic ticket, with the exception of Gov. Folk, was snowed under and a Republican, Judge Henry Lamm of Sedalia, was elected over Woodson by a majority of 13,000. His defeat did not seemingly affect Judge Woodson. He bobbed up serene- ly in a few days, with the announce- ment that he would run again in 1906. This time he decided to take no chances. He would get in close touch with every voter in the State. He start- ed out more than a year ago and has been making the rounds of the interior districts ever since. Lawyers who never had the pleasure of Judge Woodson's acquaintance, poli- ticlans-who knew him by reputation, but never met him in personal conference, and hundreds of others received letters from Judge Woodson, ure’as them to enlist in support of his candidacy.

NDW ORLEANS, May 12.—The king- fisher has been declared an outlaw in the Fifth Louisiana Levee District, a price is on his head, and a reward awaits every man who successfully raises his hand against the tabooed bird.

The muskrat dig holes in | he levees, and is content with a tunnel a _ \ moderate dimensions, but the king- “Aly, when he. starts to bore, never tops until he has made an excavation ight or nine feet long and nearly three ches in diameter. The levee line, from the mouth of the | River to the Arkansas border, has uffered to an alarming extent from the kingfisher and his first cousin, the bank ‘wallow, or sand martin, and J. T.

Thirteen years and eight months in almost solitary confinement have made a different man of the young Russian bookbinder, who burst into Mr. Frick’s office that Saturday afternoon and shot and stabbed, by so doing he was going to right the ers, The state of war and bloodshed history. workers for the Meetings were was blamed by the trouble at Homestead. denouncing his policy. Alexander Berk- He had been starved in his native land in body, with the wrongs of working class. He came here seeking liberty, but fell in with Anna Goldman, Herr Most and other anarchist leaders. Under their teaching he decided it was his mission to right the wrongs of the Homestead steel workers, and he came to Pittsburg determined to kill Mr. Frick. The Gaturday following the entrance of the troops into Homestead was the day Berkman selected for his assault. He had made several visits to the office in Fifth avenue, but each time had been unable to get at his victim. That Sat- urday afternoon he forced his way past the clerks and the office porter, burst into Frick’s private office. and, almost hefore he could rise from his chair, was firing at him with a revolver he held in one hand. while in the other he bran- dished a knife. Mr. Leishman was with Mr. Frick talking over business mat- ters. Although desperately wounded, Mr. Frick sprang for his assassin and a struggle for life ensued, which was man- fully joined in by Mr. Letshman. They battled all over the office, Berkman striking with his knife and endeavoring again to fire his revolver. Both Mr.

by th

Frick and Mr. Leishman were injured in the fight for the knife. The fight only lasted a moment or two when help ar- rived from the outer office and the an- archist was overpowered. News Kept From Wife. After the fight was over Mr. Frick’s first thought was of his wife and fam- ily. A child had been born to him but a few days before. “Don’t let my wife hear of this,”” he commanded, and hia condition was kept from her for sev- eral days until he was out of danger. She Knew he had been injured, but how seriously she did not learn for weeks. His next thought was for the big plant at Homestead. ‘‘We will go on with the ‘eht,” he said. -“The arnegie Steel Co. is independent of labor unions here after.’ Berkman was brought to a speedy trial and convicted on several counts and was given the limit, aggregating 20 years al solitary confinement in the Western Penitentia and one year in the Alle- gheny Workhouse. Of all the prisoners who have been confined in the Western Peniltentlary Berkman was one of the most remarka- ble. From the very day he entered the institution he went to work to earn all the commutation that might be coming to kim on his long term. He began at onc® to master the rules of the prison and in the years he was confined there he never had a black against his record. He was released last September and taken at once to the Workhouse to serve his last year. behavior there won him commutation aiso, and he will step out a free man next Friday after serv- ing 13 years and eight months for one of the most sensational crimes in the history of this country. The young anarchist determined that he would live his term and come out a stronger, healthier man than he entered. With the devotion of a monk he applied aimself to physical exercise, never miss- ing a day in the development of his mus- cles. His excellent conduct won for him many favors from the prison officers, who soon learned that he could be trust- ed, and they began to take pride in his accomplishments. | Berkman developed a passion for read- ing and Chaplain Milligan gave him ev- 6ry opportunity to indulge this taste. It is doubtful if any man who graduates from any first-class universitv can dis- play a better general knowledge of the best literature of the world than this Russian bookbinder, who started out to destroy life in the mistaken idea that by dqing so he was righting the wrongs of the workingmen. The anarchistic pam- phiets which had been his food before he was sent ts prison were no longer ob- tainable and his mind was fed on healthier literature. Masters Three Languages. When he entered the Penitentiary he could speak English but imperfectly _ could read nothing but his own langu He expressed a desire to enter the pr * on school and there began the perfection of his knowledge of English. He made wonderful progress and having mastered the Bagiieh lan uae as few high school scholars know he took up the study of German. wentartun that in a few years, he applied himself to French. As & result he steps out of the prison an accomplished linguist, master of four nguages, including his own. Berkman's ideas of anarchy have changed since his confinement. He is stili of the working class. He is. still imbued with the idea that he has a mis- sion to perform in helping them to rise from their present state. But he does not believe that can oe accomplished @ torch and the mb. When he was removed from the Penitentiary to the Workhouse he seid: “All I want is to.live my life in peace. I have paid the penalty of my crime, and society has no further demand upon me on that score. 1 want to away where I may be let alone and work. Fourteen years is a long while to be shut out from the world and the sun- shine of freedom. It gives a man a chance to think, and 4 have thought. There is much for me to do, and I am going to do it.

JEFFERSON CITY, Mo., May 12.—In- formation has reached Jefferson City that the Government has abandoned its efforts to restore the Missouri River to its former navigability, and immediately following this report have heard protests from all along the river. For several years the Government has been working on the Missouri, princi- pally in building dikes to prevent en- croachments on the land. These efforts have succeeded to a certain extent, but GREAT NEED OF A BIG SUM! \ \ ee, ti

Prius one right, the tailorship superb, and the quality of the pe during the last few -years it has spread out, cOvering more territory and at the same time lessening the depth of the channel, so that it is no longer possible for a boat of profitable size to use the Missouri in low water. Cultivation Loosens Soil. » The cause of this change is easily ex- Diained. Since the State hag becomé closely settled, practically all the land along the Missouri has been under cul- tivation. The soil in the valley of the Missouri is declared Sy experts to equal, if not surpass, that of the fa- mous Valley of the Nile. This cultli- vation has made it necessary to remove the forests which once approached to the water's edge. The soil has been loosened by the plow, and the river dur- ing times of high water has spread over the farms and carried many of them away. This has caused the bed of the river to assume wider proportions, while it has carried the dirt into the channel, filling it up. Several years ago the Government made a small appropriation for the im- provement of the Missouri. The money was in such small amounts that little work could be done from year to year, making it possible for the river to un- do in a short time all that had been | done in the year before. Residents of towns and farms along the Missouri looked for assistance from the present administration, but none has come. Senator Warner, who hails from Kansas City, was expected to push a river bill, but so far none has been introduced by him, and at this late day there is little probability that he will make any effort to secure the pass- age of sueh a measure. Klepper’s Modest Demand. Congressman Klepper, a Repwblican, from the Third Missouri District, re- cently introduced a bill to appropriate $100,000 for the improvement of the Mis- souri, but with this sum no good could be done. For this reason there is little prospect that it will pass Congress, Any improvement that it could make would be purely local at best and would not tend to the general improve- ment of the river. Congressman Shackleford, a Demo- crat, however, has a bill now before the ’House which he will make vigorous ef- forts to have peaved. Shackleford wants an appropriation of $5,000,000 a year for 20 years for the improvement of the Mis- souri, and to restore it to my ogg A This bill meets with general favor in this State. If it passes there will be enough money, it is believed, to make the Missouri a formidable opponent to excessive railroad freight rates. With steamboats plying between Sioux City and St. Louis, much freight be- tween those points and between St. Louis and Kansas City could be han- dled by the boats. which would force a reduction in railroad rates. Congressman Shackleford, who is now in Jefferson City, declared he would make every effort possible to pass his bill, though he expects opposition from the railroads. He believes that what once was can be again. He sees no rea- son why the Missouri should not be navigable. He points out that if the Missouri is properly ee the ex-

Portlock, 28, son of wealthy parents in Knoxville, Tenn., shot himself fatal- ly in the Northern Trust Co. Bank, in the Rookery Building, where the young woman i: employed, before noon today. Scores of depositors standing in line In the bank were thrown into wild ajarm when the young man drew a re- volver from his coat pocket and fired the shot. ‘Consternation followed in other banking concerns in the vicinity. A big crowd gathered in La Salle street, and it was necessary to send a general eall for police to the Central Station. vr. C. Pruyn of Springfield, house physician in the Grand Pacific. which ie just eround the corner, made a hurried examination en@ declared that the wound would prebably prove fatal. Referred to Father. Portlock was taken to the Chicago Kmergency. Hospital by the police. There it was learned that he had been living at W73 Washington boulevard. With the exception of the meager state- ment that he had been disappointed in love and had no wish to live longer, Portlock gave the police no explanation for his act. He had been living in Chicago eight months. At his home it was declared that his folks in Knoxville are wealthy. Tt was learned he had a quarre) with the young woman he hoped to make his wife, and that since that time he had been despondent. At the hospital clothing Portlock’s Was searched and a card was found on A.

The following appeal was issued yes- terday on behalf of the bond issue by the Executive Committee of the Ex- Grand Jurors’ Association: “Have you ever visited the city in- stitutions? Do you think you wunder- stand their workings or needs? If you have not been officially connected with them or served on the grand jury, we feel confident that you do not appreciate the vast power for good that is now accomplished, nor comprehend how great the need of funds to put them on the plain of similar institutions in even much emalier and less public-spir- ited cities than St. Louis. : . “The city has a limited amount each her for support of these institutions, t little or no money for betterment and extension. The city officials are alive to the ulrements and are anx- ious to suitably provide for our unfor- tunates. They have no authority to go intO debt nor borrow money for such purposes, even though the necessity is urgent. The only solution is a bond tfs- rue.

BEST OF NEW STRAW HATS SELL FOR $10, _— EXCLUDING PANAMAS a a>, &

Straw hat season has- opened in St. Louis, and -with it have come two distinctive novelties and a new way of ordering masculine headgear. A young ‘man known as an. ultra swell, and proud ‘of it,.entering a downtown hat store yésterday. after- noon, said to the clerk: “I want a two and three-quarter, two, number seven yacht.” That was all, but the alert salesman wakked to a glass case, pulled back the sliding pane and, with born of practice, lIfted handed it to the customer. The young man put the nobby straw on’ his head, sized it up at several angles in the double mirror, paid for it and walked out. “That’s the way to buy a hat,’ said the proprietor, who had watched the quick action sale. “But what was that two and three- quarter, two, business?’ asked the Post-Dispatch reporter. “That,” said the hat man, “is the new system of describing a hat. When he gave us those figures we knew that he wanted a hat with a crown two and three-quarter inches high and a brim two inches wide. Whén he told us that he wanted a yacht, we knew that he was looking for the or- dinary staple ever popular round flat Straw hat. His size was number 7.” Yacht Shape the Thing. “A aman can’t go wrong this season if he orders one of four blocks in the yacht shape. These are two and three- quarters, two; two and three-quart- ers, two and an eighth; three, two and three, twu and an eighth. These are the sellers, and they will continue to have the call throughout the season.” So that is the way to buy a common ordinary straw hat. And the prices? Well, one Olive street dealer has some in his window marked $10. At a glance there is noth- ing unusual about them.

They're not bringing the fancy prices they did three or four years ago, but we've got some up to $50, just a few for the discriminating pub- lic. “In the main the prices on Panamas range from $6.50 to $20, and the Shapes are so different that the man who wears a left-over Fedora made of this straw will be spotted at once. “The spirit of progress has hit the Panama hat makers at last. I consid- er their $6.50 hat about their best ef- fort. It is distinctive and it is a novel- ty. The brim is broad and turned up all around and the crown is dome- shaped and about three and a half inches high. But the hat musn’t be worn that way. You must put four dents in the crown and you must turn the brem down in front. Then vou have the most rakish and up-to-date Panama on the market. A distinctive feature of this new hat is that the brim is bound with narrow black braid. “The other noveity of the season is the college-shaped Milan braid straw hat. This has a broad curved brim and the ‘telescope’ effact. That is, it is creased around the top of the crown in the same way tlat young men are fond of creasing their soft felt hats. “Prices? Well, every season people are willing to pay more for really g00d straw hats. Of course, you can wet some for 50 cents, but the pre- vailing price for a good serviceable hat is from $3 to $3.50.

Says Illinois Governor Is Block- ing Prosecution of the Standard Official. Special to the Post-Dispatch. CHICAGO, May 12.—Following 1!n- structions from Washington the ‘In- terstate Commerce Commission today overruled the Standard Oil objection to extending the present inquiry beyond strictly interstate questions, and heard a statement from F. S. Hibbs of Spring- field, Ill., a former Standard Oil agent, as to petty frauds and deceptions ha- bitually practiced by the Standard, as follows: Chimney trick—Use a from which the magnesia has not been burned, for competitor's oil, and an old chimney highly polished for the Standard’s product. The new chimney ‘burns brown, while the old chimney burns a considerable time without being tarnished by the inferior oil. Water trick—Wet with water the wick to be used by the competitor's oil for an inch below the burner, then wet the upper part with oil. This burns well un- til the ofl in the upper part has burnt out. The oil in the bowl cannot come up fast enough through the water and whe competitors’ oil “‘smokes.”’ Trim trick—Trim wicks for competit- straight across, spreading the fibers. Result: a thick, red, smoky flame. Trim the Standard wick to pre- sent a thin edge. Result a pure white light. , Siphonage trick—Allow competitor's wick to curl around the bottom of the bowl, but have the Standard's wick hang straight, giving it a shorter siphonage. Bend trick—Bend the burner the competitor's. lamp and let much air. Result: smoke. Air hole trick—Close up the air holes in the bottom of the burner with flour or chewing gum, thus cutting off the oxygen and producing a smoky flame. Frank Bush of Peoria was the “pro- fessor’ who taught the tricks to the agents, said Hibbs. Monnett After FEF. S. Monnett. for the Government, charged that Gov. Charles 5. Deneen of this State blocked the prosecution of Cc. T. Collins, second vice-president of the Standard Oil Co. of Kentucky, by refusing to issue requisition papers for him, although he was under indictment in Tazewell County, Illinois, for. subor- nation of perjury. The charge was made when Monnett attempted to show by Hibbs that the Standard directed him to get falsified tax statements. Attorney Miller for the trust objected. “We have an indictment pight here against a Standard Oil official,. shvuted Attorney Monnett, waving a copy of the Collins indictment above his head. ‘It is a case where Gov. Deneen re- fused to aid the prosecution in getting the man to trial. Collins wrote and tn- duced one Kercher to swear falsely and claim property which belonged to the Standard Oil. Gov. Deneen was asked to issue extradition papers on the Gov- ernor of Ohio in June. He refused on the ground that the defendant was not in the State at the time the offense was committed and therefore could not be held to have fled from the State. That is fine law.”’ The oil inquiry will Cleveland on May 24. new chimney, or’s oil in too out in Deneen. be resumed in

It was the court-review feature of the Long amendment. It was offered for the pur- (pose of replying to Carter in defense of the President. He told of his negotia- tions with the President on the rate question. They began on March 41, when ex-Senator Chandler called on Tillman and said the President desired to get in communication with him and Senator Bailey, looking to an arrange- ment by which the Hepburn bill could be saved from obnoxious amendments. The President had named Senators Knox amd Spooner, in addition to Sena- tor Foraker, as among the constitution- al lawyers whose advice he did not wish followed. Chandler said that the Presi- dent would go no further than 4 limited review and on that point his position wus unalterable. Stery of Negotiations. Tillman saw Bailey on the following Monday, and that night informed Chan- dier there would be no trouble in unit- ing Democrats to support the President. Tillman gave various dates on which Chandler had brought messages from the President and took others in re- turn. On April 15 Senators Tillman and Bailey had a long conference with At- torney-General Moody at the Presi- dent’s request. All were agreed on the chief points involved. Moody promised to send Senators Tillman and Balley the draft of such an amendment as the President would accept. Moody subse- quently sent this amendment. As a result of more conferences it was agreed that 26 Democrats and 20 Republicans could be obtained for the amendment. There was no suspicion that there was any change in the ar- rangement between the President and the Democrats until May 4 in the aft- ernoon, when the President summoned % newspaper correspondents to the White House and announced his surren- der to those favoring a broad judicial review amendment. Tillman submitted to the Senate and had read the original Moody amend- ment with corrections in the hand- writing of Moody and Senator Bailey. The provisions followed the lines of the Long and Overman amendments, and prohibited temporary restraining orders. : %. When Roosevelt Surrendered. On Friday night, said Tillman, he heard of the President's surrender from one of those who attended the White House conference. He and ex- Senator Chandler went to see Bailey. All three then went to see Attorney- General Moody, who declared he -was entirely ignorant of any change in the President's attitude. Tillman told how he had mediated a long time be- fore he swallowed his pride arid‘‘con- sented to co-operate with the Presi- dent, after the great indignity) a® he regarded it, that had been put upon him. He had consulted with S@nhator Allison, who assured him that 28 Re- publicans would vote with thé*Dem- ocrats for a limited judicial ‘¥Yeview umendment. ' Aldrich, said Tillman, has re*umed control of the Republic. He believed many Republican Senators would re- joice that the President has gottén be- tween them and the people, as he did in his telegram to the State Grange of Pennsylvania. In his last official .com- munication, the Standard Oil message, the President still insisted on a limited court review. Such a provision. would have been put in the bill, he said, if the President had stood by his orginal po- sition. As for the breaking of faith with the Democrats Tillman would say nothing, leaving it for the people to judge hereafter. Senator Carter said Chandler would undoubtedly make an interesting con- tribution to current literature, and in- timated that his version of the Presi- dent’s negotiations with the Democrats would be entirely different from. that made by Tillman. Tillman said he would be delighted to hear from ex-Senator Chandler on the subject, “I would, also,” he said, “be pleased to hear from Theodore Roosevelt and William H. Moody.” . Bill” Makes Progress. Despite the frequent injection of at- tacks on the President and political top- ics, considerable progress was made on the rate bill. The Rayner amendment providing for a limited court review was voted down without a division. Other Substitutes and modifications were re- jected, and the Allison judicial review amendment, otherwise known as the Gold Brick the President Bought,” was adopted without a division. Senator Allison offered his amend- ment requiring five days before the is- Stance of an injunction and providing for an appeal directiy from the Cireuit Court to the United States Supreme Court. Senator Bailey congratulated the Re- publicans on having at last admitted his contention that Congress has a right to limit the judicial powers of inferior courts. He took up Spooner's reply to his argument on this uestion a re- peated his own views. e said the only difference now between the Republicans and himself seemed to be one of policy and not of principle. a ro}l call. saying he desired to see how nearly the Senate was’in upholding his opinions that the power of Injunction could be taken away from all the courts created by Congress. The Allison injunction amendment was adopted by a vote of 73 to 3. The nega- tive votes were cast by Senators Clark of Arkansas, Morgan and Pettus, ail Democrats. The last of Allison's amendmen perfect the rate bill in accordance with the program arranged by the Republic- ans, was adopted. and took up the question of Tillman's statenjent, &* told above.

The learned lecturer said: ‘*The character of the women of Amer- ica has had much to do with building up the United States. If the wives of the men who settled in America in tine eighteenth century had been French women, the settlers never would have crossed the Allegheny Mountains; had their wives been German, the growth of the Winter Land in the West would have been impossible. ‘In my five years’ residence in the United States I was struck by the entire absence of any desire by any man, or any class of men, te oppress other men. In Europe class is subject to class, but in America all classes are sub- ject to woman, and it is owing to woman that social and political equality is so pronounced there. ‘The reason American women are among the most beautiful specimens of womanhood is that the men there mar- ry for love, not for a dowry. To achieve her greatness the American woman has the loss of has withdrawn as gracefully as possible criticising American women, for which Mrs. Potter hg sige i PARIS, May 12.—‘‘That a pretty woman becomes prettier when half-masked; that a pleasing figure is the more pleasing when dimly shrouded, is the paradox of the veil. perceived, and that whatever How it in creation is comes that figures some is a problem of esthetics the solving of which is interesting.”’ To demonstrate that proposition La Vie Heureuse prints these photographs of sundry unidentified Paris beauties whose charms are hidden or heightened by the mystery of the veil. The writer concludes his article as follows: “The veil itself is beautiful because of its classic folds, its suppleness, its shining light and its luminous shade. It creates an atmosphere, an illumination; it has an air delicate and warm, voluptuous to the sight and the touch. It rivals in delicacy the flesh, is lost in it, seems to caress it. spires a desire to run off with {t—that is why it is charming.” attractive gains in in clouds Of floating white grow delicious and win- attractiveness by being It excites Jealousy and, agreeable to the sight, it in-

QUEEN OF CHARITY | BRIDE'S LACE OF VATICAN OFFERED $10,000 IN GEMS RETURNED WHEN insists that his train shall go to its destination without stopping. The time of departure is fixed in such a way that his night’s rest is not interfered with, the start being made either in the mourning, or shortly before his usual bed time. His special train is fitted up so comfortably, according to his own tastes that he feels quite at home in it. On entering, should it be early in the day, he goes to his study and sits at his writing table, where the rays of an electric lamp fall on a beautifully framed photograph of the Empress and their children. He first hears reports from the vari- ous ministers, then signs documents. looks through the newspapers and de- votes a period to reading. Then he summons a secretary and despatches letters in several languages to other munarchs or personal friends. This often consumes’ several hours. Though the sentences are spoken rap- idly, corrections are never necessary. The Emperor has the gift of concentrat- ing all his faculties on the subject in hand and he expresses himself as pre- cisely in the foreign languages as in hia mother tongue. The medis are taken at the usual times and the dinner may not last more than an hour. After dinner the Emperor assembles his suite for an unconstrained chat, ac- which realized very good prices.

There, when one worman succeeds, ashe helps all her sex; when she fails, her failure reflects.on all the others. Mrs. Potter explained that the increase of women wage earners in America does not mean thefr antagonism to home or maternity, but indicates their unwilling- ness to suvject their lives to the many chances of marriage.

LONDON, May | 12.—The Baroness Burdett-Coutts kept her ninety-second birthday at her town house, 1 Stratton street, She received, as usual, an enormous number of telegrams and letters of congratulation and bouquets of flowers. It was of the Baroness Burdett-Coutts that the King once remarked: ‘After my mother she is the most remark- able woman in England.’’ She is still the most philanthropic woman in the world, and at 92 gives all her charities her persona] attention. The story of her accession to a fortune running into millions at the age of 23, her long spinsterhood, and her romantic marriage late in life to Ashmead Bart- lett, who took her name, is wellknown. Her activity is the wonder of every- one who knows her. She still takes long drives every day. She enjoys the friendship of half the celebrities in Europe. The late Duchess of Teck was one of her clocest friends, and Prince Francis of Teck is the Bar- oness’ godson. Most of the contemporaries of her youth have now passed away, but her interests are so varied that she is con- tinually making friends. a ee ee ENGLISH GIRLS FOR CANADIAN HOMES.

s , Cy » r : i. A : SRS eRe se re 4 and used it for their} One great difference between this and other ‘“‘hikes’’ that have been made in the Moro country at various times was that the country people were heartily in favor of the Americans. During the whole three days, when messengers and carriers were going back and forth be- tween the town and the hill, not an American was molested. On many oth- er expeditions half the casualties have been due to men being cut up on the trail while separated from their com- mands. This time the men to be at- tacked were not defending their homes against a foreign invader, but were out- laws cast off by their clans, who had gathered on the crater of Mount Dajo, and from there had for months past been raiding and murdering the peace- ful countrymen below. This was why, in spite of the claims of kinship, and the still stronger claim of religious hatred, our soldiers were helped instead of be- tng molested by the country people on the road. The so-called trails up Dojo are only goat paths, not wide enough most of the way for two men to walk abreast. The timber is thick and the under- growth is a tangled thorny mass wall- ing in the trail. To leave the path one must hack his way as he goes. This compelled the 200 men in each column to be strung out single file far down the tralis, so that only those that were near the heads of the columns knew much of what was going on by actual observation, , When a bend in the path was reached the leading files would skirmish forward to the next turn, and when they had reached it and found no ob- struction they would wave to the boys behind to come on. Round the next corner perhaps they found a trench across the path, and then the main force’ Whited’ out-of sight behind the ture until the guard had. dlengsed, of | SENDS THE FIRST COMPLETE. |

the defenders. Sometimes when the latter were well posted or exceptionally obstinate it was neeessary to send half a dozen as a flanking party to hack a path off to the side of the trail to reach a position from which the trench could be enfiladed, but more often after the exchange of a few shcts the Moros would make a rush down the trail hop- ing to get to close quarters. Death they cared nothing for; all they desired was to see the blood of an infidel before they died, that they might enjoy great- er glory.in their hereafter. Buckshot at Close Range. For fighting like this at close quar- ters the constabulary shotgun loaded with buckshot was found more satisfac- tory than the rifles. The latter would kill a man a mile away, but when it was a question of stopping him within 2 feet they didn’t work so well. Un- less shot through the brain or the heart a Moro, with the hope of heaven in his heart. came right along after a Krag bullet had drillec through him al- most as though he had never been touched. In that case the man who had his bayonet exercise down pat found the value of it in a hurry. : Fortunately for us the Moros had chosen not to defend the trail with their whole force; most of them were waiting for us on the top of the hill. These trail trenches in most cases con- tained only half a dozen or less of the more adventurous spirits. Most of them dug just a simple ditch across the path with the earth thrown out in front, and sometimes a tree felled on top. Although the tall timber shaded the trail from the sun, it kept away the breeze also, and although the tempera- ture wasn't over 90, after marching eight miles to get. into . position, 200 rounds of ammunition began to weigh pretty heavy, to say nothing of the rest of the kit. Canteens had all been refilled at the last stream crossed, but there wasn’t much left. in most of them bythe time the end of the trail was reached. Not half way up the trail it got so bad that it was impossible for the pack mules to go further, so after that the extra ammunition also had to go on men’s backs. Gun Taken Up in Pieces. The Colt mountain with Lewton, tak- en up piece by piece, was finally dragged onto a knoll about 800 yards from the crest and set to throwing three-inch shrapnel into the fortifi- cation. When the head of the column had fought its way to the Moro clearing at the top of the trail it was confronted by a cliff rising almost sheer 50 feet, while from the foot of the actual cliff the ground fell away at_an angle of perhaps 50 degrees. ' Having been warned of the position of the Moro cannon Lawton's men hacked a way with bolos through the thicket to flank the position. Meanwhile word was hur- ried to the rear that Lawton was ready to scale the cliff. Theoretically, of cotirse, the head of each column should have been closely followed by a signal corps with a telephone wire, so that the general in command might know just what had been done and be able to give his orders without this delay, which might have meant the failure of the expedition. Finally seeing it was too late to as- sault that night the order was given to withdraw part way down the hill to a knoll where the brushwood was thinner and some sort of defense could be made against a night attack. Meanwhile on the other two trails the columns had been having similar experiences, Capt. Rivers had been se- verely wounded and compelled to turn over his command to Capt.- Koehler. Col. Duncan decided not to attempt the assault that night, and ordered the col- umns to throw up defenses. Water and “chow had to be brought up on men’s backs, and the men were exhausted when, under heavy guard, they lay down to snatch a few hours’ sleep on their arms. .

Bliss. Although Gen. Wood had assumed full responsibility for what was done, he left Col. Duncan rhed in his command of the ex tion. The troops were ordered to stay where they were and prepare defense for the night. This was Wednesday, March 7. Fresh ammunition was brought up and served out to those who had run short, and. the wounded were sent down the tratl in blankets on crossed rifles, and more food and water was brought up the hill. The night was spent un- der heavy patrols, to guard against sur- prise. Meanwhile an interpreter had been sent with’a final message to the sur- vivors. Would they lay down their arms and surrender, or if they would not do that would they send their women and children down the mountain, where they would be given fair treatment? The of- fer was rejected with scorn; they would not surrender, and the women and chil- dren should stay with them. If the fn- fidels wanted them let them come and! take them. Trench a Death Trap. About midnight the final orders were sent out. Lawton was to move at day- break around the southeastern lip of the crater, till he reached a position from which his machine gun could enfilade the cotta.

SE eo RTE re. Pore Not 100 yards from the trench was a group of women and children sitting looking on. They were not molested, being out of the direct line of fire, and no men being among them. A _ few minutes after the firing finally ceased they were photographed as they sat quietly in a circle, with the dead lying all around. They were kindly treated and cared for by the troops, and sent out of the way in case there should be further fighting. They belonged to men who had told them to keep out of the fighting line. In the trench itself it was different, There the bodies lay in heaps three and four deep as they had fallen when the shells struck them, and the shells had not distinguished between the sexes. Women lay there with their hands still grasping the spear or the campilan; the men had kept the guns to themselves. Women had taken their babies with them when they went to the trench, and the babies had met death to which their mothers took them. It was piti- ful, but it was their choice, not ours. The women had chosen to stay with their husbands and fight, and not to leave the hill, as they had been given the opportunity to do. They had chosen not only to fight themselves, but to take their children into the trench with them, and the shells made no distinc- tion. From the lip of the crater on the in- side the ground gracualiy slopes away toward the middle, where the depres- sion is perhaps 166 feet deep in places.

FEARS FEDERAL COURTS

Knows That Legal Proceedings May Tie Up Reforms for Many Years.

BY ROSE MARION. James A. Smith, City Building Com- misssioner, is the “billboard fighter of St. Louis.” He received his name from the king Of billboards whose word is billboard law in at least eleven cities. If Mr. Smith had his way not a bill- board would be standing in St. Louis. Unless—there are several unlesses and you must give close heed—the billboard in question was in the right place, of the right size and had upon it the right kind of matter, all the “‘rights’’ to be judged by the Building Commissioner. But the having of his way depends up- on the rotting of wood. That is part of his way. Not all of it can be given him even by the present city ordinance, which is said to be hard upon billboards. You may care to know that Mr. Smith drew up that ordinance himself and made it as strong as he could. The wood that must rot is that which is in signboards that do not comply with the present ordinance, and yet are in too good condition to be condemned. Some Billboards Artistic. Mr. Smith does not think all bill boards unbeautiful. He considers that many of them have artistic merit, espe- cially when placed at certain distances from the street. He gave of his know!l- edge on the subject to Miss Martyn and me when we visiteq him at his office, $10 City Hall, yesterday. The billboard man was word careful when he called the Building Commis- sioner a fighter. He has fighting jaws and eyebrows and his brown eyes do not look as if they know how to blink for quits. He is of that dangerous class of fight- ers that play fair and deceive their an- tagonists by making no effort to do so. He has the mind of a builder and con- verses as if he were placing joists and - beams in their pasitions in order that the other work may follow as it should. He has a reason for every demand he makes of a billboard man. For instance: “Tl insist that they build their billboards 15 feet from the sidewalk,’ he says, “that is to prot@ct the lives of pedes- trians when strong winds are blowing. An Aid to Policemen. “The ordinance limits the height of billboards to 14 feet. That gives them room to fall without striking those who I saw a billboard fall across a street one evening just after a | little child had passed that way, and that causeq me to realize the necessity for care.”’ His reason for their being built four feet from the ground and six feet from the nearest wall has a sugges- tion of humor in it. When he wrote that he was thinking of saving the fatigue of the policemen. “When the boards reach to the ground and to the nearest wall they serve as screens for baseball games among the boys and a general rais- ing of Cain,” he explains. “The po- liceman passing by on the street cannot reach the place of disturbance without running around the block, thus giving the noise-makers a good handicap." But he has more serious reasons. “Holdups are often accomplished by men who have hidden behing bill- “and I -recall the Came upon him from behind a on South Grand avenue. mf Afraid of Legal Delays. “The ordinance also requires that no arde be longer than 60 feet.

He was cordial, but greeted me with, ‘I understand that you're a fighter.’ ‘He spent three hours taking me about Chicago in his automobile and I saw all the bill boards that I cared to look upon—whole miles of them, as well as stacks of them. I saw them ranged in front of old houses and even on tops of roofs. Chicago is certainly bill- boarded. The city can not take action because the matter is tied up in the Federal courts. Two-Story Billboards. the double-deckers. Those are bill boards above bill boards. They're not allowed to build any more, but the objection comes when I condemn those that have already been bullt. It means consider- able loss to the bill board ~eople and they try to have changes made. “It is as necessary, however, to pro- tect life by tearing down old bill boards as it is to do so by compelling the prop- er building of new ones. “More objection comes when I insist upon bill boards being placed a proper distance from the street. At the Round Top market triangle, where the Termin- al company will probably have a junk be kept. Since it is to be fenced in with bilk-boards there will be little room for the junk. ‘I have to be constantly on the watch.

CUPID FREE FRO! STEPFATHER'S BANS

Texas Attorney-General Tells Clerk to Issue Licenses Regardless ‘of Consent of the Newly-Acquired Parent of a Minor Bride to Be. AUSTIN, Tex., May 12. Y a ruling of Judge W E. Hawkins, B First Office Assistant Attorney- General, a stepfather cuts very lit- tle figure, if any, in the proposition on the marriage of his stepdaughter, who is under legal age. This is the first time in this State the question has been raised. The ruling was made in an- swer to inquiries from D. J. Cutberth, County Clerk of Bosque County. The opinion of Judge Hawkins is: “You desire to know whether you would be justified, under the laws of this State, in issuing a marriage license under the following circumstances: “The prospective groom is over 21 years of age. The prospective bride is only 16 years of age. Her father is dead. Her mother, who has married again, is the statutory guardian of the estate of the minor, and consents to the iesuance of the license and to the marriage, but the minor's stepfather ob- jects. is “Revised statutes of Texas, article 2957, read as follows: ‘No clerk shall issue a license with- out the consent of the parents or guar- dians of the parties applying, unless the parties so applying shall be, in the case of the male, 21 years of age, and in the

“Is the stepfather a parent of the minor within the meaning of this Statute? This precise question seems not to have been decided in this State. ‘““However, in Heinemeier vs. Arlitt, 6/7 Ss. W., p. 103, it was held that the word ‘parent’ was used in the articles of the revised statutes of Texas con- cerning the appointment of guardians does not include a stepfather or a stepmother. “In Castner vs. Egbert, 12 N. J. Law (7 Hal.), p. 259, it was held that the word ‘parent’ is understood in the strict sense and does not extend to those who are some times said to stand in loco parentis as used in a marriage act providing that an action may be maintained against a clergyman mar- rying a minor under the age of 2l years, unless a certificate in writ- ing, under the hand of the parent or parents, guardian or guardians, grant- ing permission for such marriage, shall be filed. ‘And in People vs. Schoonmaker, 117 Mich., p. 19, it was held that a step- father is not the natural guardian of a minor orphan, and that his consent is not essential. “The trend of the decision seems to be in the direction of authorizing the issuance of the license by the clerk upon the consent of the mother being given, regardless of the wishes of the stenfather. “tIpon principle and under the au- thorities I am of the opinion that if vou have the written consent of the mother therefor, you will be justified in issuing the license in this instance.’’

You can come in here and take them off,” and she pushed the negiess into the alley. The negress did not seem inclined to give up her glad clothes. She fought desperately but was power ss in the hands of her assailant. The letier was Miss Florence Humes, with Angelis comedians, She is siender, but when she fought for her clothing, she fought hard. The negress fought to ot away. Miss Humes then started to take the dress off herself. A tug at the belt and off it came. A few quick movements and the skirt dropped down, revealing a gaudy petticoat. Miss Humes was somewhat disheveled herself by this time. Her purse had slipped from her belt and fallen to the ground, her handkerchief Was gone and her hat was awry, but even this last circumstance did not stop her in her endeavors. It looked after the skirt was off that Miss’ Humes intended to go right ahead and take off the waist, too. She stopped after making a preliminary tug at it, saying, “O, you can keep it now. I don't want you to have to parade home in bare arms,” and grabbing up the ekirt and other articles she had dropped in the fray, she ran to the station and scrambled aboard the northbound train just asi it was pulling out.

HOG HAS LABOF SANG DEVICE Animal With Broken Nose Solves Breathing Problem in Unique Way. Special te the Post-Dispatch. KENNETT, Mo., May 12.—On _ the streets of Kennett any day may be seen a hog, about 9 months old, carrying in its mouth a block of wood, a bone or a brickbat, usually larger than an egg. A closer examination will show that the hog’s snout has been broken in such a way that it cannot breathe through its nose. All the air for its lungs must go through its mouth. The object it car- ries in its mouth keeps its jaws apart and saves it the exertion of doing that important office with its muscles. When the hog wants to eat, it drops its block. and when it has finished its meal it picks up its block. If some other hog, or dog, has disturbed it and it can't find the block, the hog hunts around until it finds another one, which it puts in position and goes on its way. Some may question this story, but it can be proven true by any business man on Kennett’s public square. The hog is also here to prove it, and has been dur- ing the past month or two, It belonged to W. O. Harkey. He gave it to Henry Allen and the latter turned it out to take pot luck with other hogs and cows that were violating the ordinances of this town. Does a hog reason? STEALING FOR CHURCH. Special to the Post-Dispatch. AUSTIN, Tex., May 12.—Andrew Ver- sey, a negro parson, plead guilty to stealing cotton from the bales in a Io. cal cotton yard and Was assessed a $50 fine and given two months in Jail. Ver. sey claims he committed no sin in steal. ing the cotton, as he had subscribed $25 to the “foreign mission" fund of the church, and that it was necessary for him to get the money; that inasmuch as every cent derived from the sale of the stolen cotton was applied to his do- nation, and none of it used for personal purposes, he had not erred, but had done a duty In the service of his Master. The Judge could not see it that way. Versey says he will continue service of the Lord and will the prisoners in them.

The demand for window glass has been on a higher level during the past winter and spring than at any time.

How to meet that extra demand has now become a problem. It has been estimated that over $1,- 000,000 in glass was destroyed in San

Dangerous Kidney Diseases Cured.

HEN the kidneys become affect- ed bv catarrh, either from colds, overwork, or an exten- sion of catarrh from some other or- gan, they fail to perform their normal functions. It is the work of the kidneys to ex- crete from the blood many of the poisons which accumulate in the body. If the kidneys fail in their work, the poisons accumulate to such an ex- tent as to cause convulsions, which often prove fatal. Peruna, by relieving the kidneys of their congested and catarrhal tions, leaves them free to act in a normal manner. It also strengthens the action of the heart, equalizing the circulation of the blood in all parts of the system. ‘ A remedy that relieves catarrhal erangements’ of the kidneys should condli- f

certainly be considered a househ ‘ sehold remedy. Peruna is such a remedy. | Mr. CATARRH OF KIDNEYS Kidneys i.“ Z ee Much Suffering. © = . x ’ Leopold Brandl, 246 Bleecker street, Brooklyn, . ¥., writes: “I was sick three months with catarrh of the kidneys and lungs.

LIPMAN WTULIE BONBON ’

CIAR RICK

Pathos in Many Effective Situations. | Clara Lipman, as the pretty little milliner in the title role of “Julie Bon- bon,” the play of her own writing, in which she and Louis Mann begin a week’s engagement at the Garrick to- night, is said to be uncommonly fasci- nating and especially well gowned, New Yorkers also found that the patt of Her Play Combines Comedy and fact was one of the compelling causes of the play’s long and brilliant New York run. 3" eee As Julie, role Miss Lipman has the cap of a drunken old father, Jean Pouljol, played by Louis Mann. She be- comes the most fashionable milliner in the American metropolis; but, notwith-

standing her father’s vagaries, she is loyal in her love for him and will let nothing come between them. He is at once amusing and’ pathetic in his bib- ulous weakness, and some of the play’s strongest moments are reached in the scenes of which he is the central figure. Louis Mann is said to do the best char- agter work of his life in this part.

Julle suited her to a nicety, and this

that his strength would. not last until we reached Naples. “That morning the roof of the church fell in from the weight of the cinders and the incessant rain upon it of. this heavy, blaék dust and Wirt, and there were sOme two hundred people killed. The dirt and ashes in thts small town were six feet deep, as we passed through, and we came near collapsing m our compartment, as there semed to be an especial strata of thick dust and sulphur at this particular point. Feared None Would Escape. “Those who were corwded with us in this compartrnent were of the working class, but they were quiet and 80 ex- hausted that they were helpless, and we all rejoiced to realize that they were being carried to a place of safety, al- though at the time it seemed extremely doubtful if any of us would ever escape. “The soldiers had finally driven these people out for their own protection, and the soldiers were following our train on foot. As we proceeded; we sow the sol- diers and people shoveling the dust from the tops of houses and from the railroad tracks. “We knew if the tracks were barri- caded all would be left to théir death. We realized, too, that the § greatest danger was that our engineer’ would be overcome. You know the engineers are not protected on the locomotives in this country as they are in America. “T never realized or thought anything could be so terrible as the expertences of these people. who were all crying, shouting, moaning and all in a foreign | tongue, and yet, all could be thordughly understood and appreciated by us, as itt spoke of terrific agony and suffering of these human beings. “The blue sea was as red as blood and much agitated. Young Husband Mourns, “There Was one young man wht, at one station, crowded into our compart- ment. He was about 80 years of age and had the saddest face I ever saw. He was well dressed and looked as theugh he had been prosperous, and every once in awhile tears would come to his eyes and roll down his face, al- though he was too much overcome to say a word. It was the saddest face I have ever looked into, and we learned that his wife had been suffocated and his baby with her, and he was escaping only with his life. “All this time we were in the midst of darkness, with a faint oil light in our compartment which simply gave suffic- jent light to see the hungry, worn and dirty coungenances of all of us, all of which suggested that we were in the infernal regions. ‘Everything on the outside contributed to this thought, as the dirt and ashes were raining almost like hailstones against the windows, with occasional flashes of fire from the summit of Ve- suvius. reached Naples, much “We finally more dead than alive, and Miss Martin and I secured a cab and went to the hotel, which wa$S some distance from the tion. “The dust was d foot thick, and men had to be hired to go in front and sweep the cinders so the horse could walk and the cab could proceed at all. We had only an hour to catch the train, but we tore along as madly as we could, and finally reached the hotel, which we were su sed to find absolutely deserted, “Not a person in any portion Jf the place, but we ran to our rooms, grabbed our clothes, throwing them over our arma, and again reached the street.

The people there were awakened at 2 o'clock in the morning, and required to go out of town, as the lava at that time seemed to be coming directly for Pom- peii. All Their Money. 5 wish I could in some way let you realize how awful, terrible and pitiful it all was, but I cannot, of course. All of our party gave all the money we had with us to the poor creatures, for it seemed too awful to think about. and thousands of people are suffering to death on every hand. suffering and misery and trust it may never be my lot to see it again. “Our teacher proved to.be a wonder- ful woman under the circumstances.

They are known to be alert and dar- ing men hunters, and, when on the war- path, savage and ferocious beyond de- scription. They are cannibals of the most daring type, but not merely for tne sake of procuring human flesh as animal food. Oftener than otherwise they seek fer victims that they may get human blvcd for ceremonial purposes, and on such occasions, when victims from an alien tribe cannot be got, they find them among their own kin. This phase of cannibalism is the most difficult to deal with from a mission- ary’s standpoint. The deeply imbedded idea that human blood is esseitial in there ceremonial rites has to be up- reoted.

Lawn and Porch Goods SPEEDY TRIALS TO PROTECT WOMEN AND PREVENT LYNCHING A a,

re = Proposed New Law Would Bring Offenders to Justice Within Three Days After Heinous Crime Is ' Committed. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. When considering the grave question of lynch law three things must be kept in view; first, the crime committed, which is the cause of lynchings; second, the law of the State, and whether or not it is inadequate; third, the purpose an% the result. Then the remedy must be suggested. Those opposed to meting out sum- mary punishment to the brute who has committed the most heinous offense known to society, often overlook the act which leads to lynching and forgets the poor, humbled and disgraced victim. An evil word or suggestion is instinctively repelled, and, if this is so, what must be the state of mind of a woman when that crime is committed? Does not every one connected by blood or friendship suffer every time the deed is called to mind? This element should be kept up- permost and foremost in the minds of all of those who debate the questign. Woman Is Forgotten. in all of the editorials and in all of the accounts published about the Spring- field lynching there has searcely been a reference to tile woman, who suffered niost. Columns have been devoted to what is termed a disgrace to the State of Missouri, referring to the lynching of the negroes, and not one word or line in whieh the primary offense was cormedl ‘a disgrace to the State.’’ The Prose- cuting Attorney announced that he had the names of the leaders of the mob, and that he would present the evidence to the special grand jury and prosecute them vigorously. The Judge’s charge to the jury contained only instructions to punish the men who were parties to the lynching. The Governor has sent instructions have the military authorities ar- rest the leaders. The Attorney-Gen- eral has instructed his assistant on the ground to bring proceedings to oust the sheriff. And yet those who condemn lynching say that there is some doubt as to the identity of the men hanged. Then why is not the machinery of the courts, of the mili- tary, of the Attorney-General’s office, of the Prosecuting Attorney's office put into motion to discover who were the perpetrators of the devilish deed? Why is not some effort made to ap- prehend the negroes who committed the assault if these did not? _ A special grand jury was summoned in a@ hurry to indict the mob leaders; why was not a petit jury summoned the instant the negroes were arrest- ed and why was not their guilt or in- nocence proved? Have not the State’s Officers, as well, ignored the real cause of the affair of April 14? Has not every official forgotten the first crime that was committed in his zeal to punish those who hanged the men. so that none living could shame the woman who was robbed of her honor? Higher Law Violated. Has the law of the State been rvio- lated by the hanging of the negroes at Springfield? There can be but one answer to this question, and that is in the affirmative. But was, or was not there an extenuating circumstance? The young man, who killed one of the two negoes who attempted a repeti- tion of the offense, was applauded and will never be found guilty of murder: nor is he. Every man to whom I have spoken on this subject and who has condemned the action of the mob, has admitted that he himself would kill a man who had assaulted a wom- an of his family, and one of these was a State official connected with the militia. All law springs from the people and is made in due form by their repre- sentatives. It is made for the protec- tion of life and property and is not meant to be an empty form. It is properly contended that there should be a trial for al! accused persons and perpetrators of an outrage found guil- ty by a jury before they are hanged. If this were done speedily there would be no lynchings. In the recent Louis- lana case the Governor of the State went to the scene of the crime and forced a speedy trial and’ the people were Satisfied. But when such crimi- nals are allowed to stay months ir to ———. to take advantage of the laws enac for the protection of the innocent delay justice, then the people are not satisfied. Laws are made to p nish the guilty and to pro- tect the innocent. To permit a known criminal, one of whose guilt there is no doubt, to prostitute the law to save himself from his just dues, is some- thing the community will not stand in such a case as thia. It is the delay, not of the law, but of the authorities, in punishing such criminals, which compels the people to measure out the punishment them- selves. The crime of criminal assault is an extraordinary one and demands spe- cial attention, particularly in those sections ‘in which there are large numbers of negroes. Revenge is not ‘Ahe only purpose of lyvnching.. Primarily’ the purpose is to rid the world of a Brute. But along with the primary puppose is the purpose of striking terror 40 the associates of the criminal so that there will be no repeti- tion of the offense. No one conflemns Gov. Folk for send- ip A state jail and ing the milftia to Springfield. of lawlessness existed which had to be suppressed and the Governor only did his duty/ ; It is fhdeed unfortunate that when men rige and commit an extraordinary deed with only the sole and pure intent to prgrect women, that they should be joined by the. scum of the criminal classes who, like the negroes referred to “above, take advantage of the cir- cumstances to riot and commit excesses. ‘Phe assault upon the street car filled Avith passengers and the wanton action rin the house of the Sheriff cannot be upheld by. any person of reason. These are some of the results which attend a Ivnching. for it is impossible to control this element of a mob. Neither can cruel and barbarous treatment of the rapist be sanctioned. That is” another result of which men, frenzied by the hideous crime, take no thought at the time. The great result to be achieved, it is to be hoped, is that the condition will bring forcibiy to the minds of our law- makers the necessity for a speedy trial in all such eases: Let them provide that a trial shall be held within three-days after the offender is caught, and that if an appeal is taken, it shall be heard at the next term of the Supreme Court and that rape cases shall take prece- dence over all others at that term. Be- no delay, all citizens will be satisfied that their homes will be protected and a remedy for rape and lynchings will be secured at the same time. It is an extraordinary and growing condition and the law must grow to meet the emergency. DOUGLAS W. ROBERT. UintA OF 17 1S

HAGDPRSTOWN, Md., May 12.—Al- though Weisel Fox, a well-known cit- izen of Hagerstown, !s not yet 45 years old, he has the record of having been divorced from three wives, the net re- sult of suits in each of which he had been the complainant. When Judge Keedy granting a divorce to Fox from his third wife, Della B. Fax, he filed an opinion in which he said Fox had about reached the limit. But for the fact that the testimony was of such a char- acter that under the’ law he could not do otherwise, Judge Keedy said he would have refused the relief —— While knowing of no precedent limit- ing the number of times a person might be divorced, the Court expressed the opinion that when a complainant asks for a divorce more than three times the bill should be dismissed upon the theory of contributory negligence, St. Louls has more Post-Dispatch readers every day than it has homes, “First in everything.”

BEGAN WITH SONG Frank Sheer Met Bride When He Played Piano at En- tertainment.

WED AFTER TWO YEARS

Girl’s Parents Objected and South Side Couple Eloped to Pacific. The romance of Frank C. Sheer, 22 years old, and his wife, 18 years old, who was Miss Rose Hermann, until one week ago, started with the song, “You're as Welcome as the Flowers in May.” They met two years ago at an entertainment and dance given at Benton Hall. Sheer, who is a pianist, played a number of selections that evening. Miss Hermann could sing “like a bird,” according, to the esti- mate of her admirers and they asked her to sing. She protested that she wasn’t ac- quainted with the pianist, but an in- troduction to Mr. Sheer overcame that obstacle. It seemed as if the only thing he could, play was that one song, “You're as Welcome as the Flowers in May,” and that apparently was the only song Miss Hermann coul remember that night, so she sang/while he played, They were en- cored several times and Sheer escort- ed Miss Hermann home that evening, Eloped to Pacific, Mo. The attachment grew and the two agreed last summer that they would be married in January, 1907. The prospective bridegroom couldn’t wait, however. It was when he visited her week before last that they decided on the plan of eloping to Pacific, Mo., and being quietly married. The bride’s parents wanted her to wait a little longer and when they heard of the marriage they were in- dignant. The bridal couple are at home temporarily with the bride’s aunt, Mrs, Mennemeyer of 1841 South Tene street. Mrs.. Sheer is the daughter of Cae- ser Hermann of 3124 Texas avenue, and, the bridegroom is steward at a downtown restaurant. MEN OF WEALTH - IN SHIP'S CREW Take Voyage to Get Taste of | Real Work—One a Mil- lionaire,. Special to the Post-Dispatch. NEW YORK, May 12.—After passing nearly six months aboard the same ship, three men of wealth arrived today on the British bark Alcides from East Lon- don. The Alcides belongs to the Stand- ard Oil Co. and sailed from here on Nov. 93 last. All three men, who are of wide- ly differing walks of life, took the yoy- age as a fad, for experience and to taste of the joys of real work. All are signed members of the crew. James T. Armstrong, the first of the three to quit the bark, is said to be a Pittsburg millionaire, who shipped as purser in order to see 20,000 miles of the blue ocean in varying moods. He rose in riches in the coal fields. In June he begins from New York a tour of the world on a steamer. Terrence Riper, a ship’s apprentice, comes of a well-to-do family in England, which is socially prominent. Charley Yeung Telong, the steward goes to sea as an avocation, although he says he has real estate holdings in Hong-Kong that would support him roy- ally at home. “Me millionaire too in Hong-Kong,”’ says Charley. “Own eight houses and have much money.” Mr. Armstrong says he had the time of his life, He went up to Kimberley and inspected’ the mines. He has a fine residence at 6907 Callowhill street, Pitts. burg, and is a director of the Lincoln National Bank. He was formerly presi- pages = Mansfield Coal and Coke Co e is to entertain Capt.

SPIER’S $50,000 PROFIT TOO LATE Agent Could Have Restored H. H. Rogers’ Gambled Secu- rities Had He Lived. Special to the Post-Dispatch. NEW YORK, May 12.—If Charles L. Spier, who was killed in his Staten Is- land home last Monday, had lived until the closing of the stock market today and had not been spld out, he would have seen his losses made up, he would have had a profit of nearly $50,000 and would have been able to restore the se- erities of H. H. Rogers with which he had been gambling. The profit is now to his credit or that of his heirs in the brokerage offices of Keech, Loew & Co., unless they sold the stock they were carrying for him.

Commissioner Smith was temporarily enjoined yesterday. after- noon from interfering with the Dill- boards of the St. Louis Gunning Adver- tisement Co. The restraining order is returnable Tuesday and Mayor Wells and Acting Chief of Police Gillaspy are also made defendants. Commissioner Smith has, during the week, prevented billboard companies from erecting boards which he says ara oecgag to the city building regula- tions. Building inspectors have in some instances been forced to ask police aid in stopping work on the boards. The building regulations provide that no billboard shall be erected closer than 15 feet to the line of the lot on which it is built and that no board shall be of double height—one billboard upon an- other. These regulations are the most frequently violated, Mr. Smith says, and he is trying to enforce them. Bumped Way Into Prison.

TOURISTS’

Absence of Manufacturers Means Endeavor, J. P. Herrmann Says. _ John P, Herrmann, a St. Louis real éstate dealer, writes as follows of San Francisco conditions, his letter being dated Oakland, Cal., May 6: “The banks will open for business in Frisco when the hol days are over, June 1; the vaults are still too hot. The safe deposit companies open May 7. These vaults have cooled and will refresh many who obtain access. ‘The present ,;method of helping out depositors is té si a demand note, payable to your bank, for which a clear- ing certificate is Issued. Upon this the mint pays out limited amounts to $500. Seven hundred people in line, waiting on Uncle Sam, who wakes about 11 and goes to sleep at 3 o’clock in the after- noon, makes the prospect of ‘relief in this line very cheerless. The savings banks, when they open, will give each depositor $30 for immediate wants. “From all reports which I can gather the bank vaults are full of money and assets, but until insurance matters are adjusted and this money comes to Fris- co the bank vaults will be too hot to open. “The insurance companies’ losses now figure $175,000,000. Should the fire losses be paid in full a clean loss to Frisco and its community of $175,000,000 is still further increased by a depreciation in land values in the burned. district, @mounting to at least $75,000,000. Compromise Indicated. “These are actual losses, even though the insurance money is paid, which I doubt. The failure of one company al- ready indicates a possible compromise with a number of others, and I should not be surprised if the above actual loss of $250,000,000 will be increased a' least $25,000,000 by settlements forced lf the insurance companies if it can be held down to this figure. “There will be small differences of opinion as to the value of salvage be- tween the insured and the adjuster. “The loss by the quake in the un- burned district is .$3,000,000. What must it have been in the burned district, where commercial and palatial residence structures were shaken and twisted out of all natural semblance? The danger of the evidence of the trembler seemed to me much greater than the danger of the falling walls to pedestrians, which was in itself great. “The nucleus of Frisco’s future is in Fillmore street, oeene the town _ as Jefferson avenue does St. Louis. But for the 15 buildings, each ranging in value from $100,000 to $1,500,000 in their present condition, the blow to Frisco would have been crushing. These build- ings in the former business section are the one ray Of hope for Frisco’s future, and, as sooh @s they are repaired, the possibilities of a future metropolis in the West will have a solid footing. ‘In the absence of manufacturing in- terests heretofore and now lacking, and the loss of the tourists’ annua! millions, which will not be available for the re- building the upbuilding of new San Francisco will amount to nearly twenty years’ endeavor.” CONGRESS WON'T PAY FOR “PANTS” Paymaster Lost Them in Fire, but Has Not Been Re- imbursed. Special to the }’ost-Dispatch. WASHINGTON, May 12.—Paymaster Rogers’ bill for ‘“panis,’’ pajamas and other things lost in a Yokohama Hotel fire is still pending before Congress. If Senator Blackburn of Kentucky had been present to explain to the Senate exactly what was due Paymaster Rogers and what he had lost in the fire, he might have been gg ey eer The paymaster’s bill te tor $1,386.50, and is for pay for 13 pairs of ‘‘pants,”’ nightshirts, uniforms, socks and about everything a naval officer could wear during a three-years’ cruise with the Asiatic fleet. The fire which destroyed this naval officer’s outfit occurred on the night of Feb. 7, 1886, and he has been all this time trying to have the Gov- ernment make good. A board of officers of the navy inves- tigated the paymaster’s loss so far as Goyemmment property went and relieved him of all blame for losing it. The late William G. Whitney, when Secretary of the Navy, wrote the paymaster that the department would furnish a committee of Congress with all the facts regarding his loss whenever the matter might come up.

“HONKS” FOL THE LID POLICE Kokomo Will Have Plain Clothes Force to Catch Gamblers. Special to the Post-Dispatch. KOKOMO, Ind., May 12.—The local police department has discovered that some of the saloons and garm- bling rooms of the city have been provided with signal devices to give warning of the approach of officers. One gambling room that is on the sec- ond floor of a building, is equipped

| with an automobile horn that a man on the first floor causes to “honk” whenever a policeman comes near. Another gambling room has an elec- tric “buzzer” which a man employed as lookout causes to buzz whenever an officer shows up in that vicinity. A saloon that has a basement annex where drinks are sold Sundays, tis provided with a red flashlight operat- ed from the room above by an electric button, The new Police Board has been try- ing to suppress gambling, and to en- force the closing clauses of the sa- loon law, It is believed, however, that violations are of frequent occur- rence and that the police are not able to find them because of the signal systems that are in operation. In the hope of rendering the signals value- less, the Police Board has asked the council to appropriate $500 to be used in the employment of “plain clothes men” who will investigate places sus- pected of violating the law. The Council has indicated a willingness to make the appropriation.

Expense in River and Moun- tainous Counties Expect- ed to Be Heavy.

Having planned for presentation to the next Legislature election and pri- mary laws which meet his ideas of the ideal, Gov. Folk is now devoting con- siderable time to a study of a solution of the road improvement proposition. He has arrived at the conclusion that Missouri can have good roads through- out the entire State, under a well-gov- erned system, at a minimum of cost to the tax payers of the State. The Governor is planning a road law which will be almost identical with that under which Missouri’s public school system is governed. It is proposed that there shall be a State superintendent of roads as there is a State superintendent of public schools. He shal! be elected by the peo- ple in the same manner as any other State officer. There will be in each county a county superintendent of roads, and the county shall be divided into districts, each of which shall have a road board composed of three mem- bers, to supervise construction and re- pair of roads, Funds From Taxation. Funds must. be derived from taxation. It is planned there shall be a State tax of 7 cents on the $100 for road im- provement, and there shall be such ad- ditional tax in the counties and districts as shall be necessary for the improve- ments in that locality. In many parts of Missouri the roads are well made and in excellent condi- tion, but in other localities a vast amount of expensive road building is necessary. In those districts where there are good roads, the expense of keeping them in repair would be Slight, On the other hand, in localities where little work has ever been done on the roads, the expense for a few years would be large, and the taxation probably heavy. Once in proper re- pet. however, very little money would e needed to keep the roads in ex- cellent condition. The Governor looks for support for Buch a road law from practically the entire farming population of the State, as well as the residents of the smaller cities and towns. No vigorous opposition is expected from the cities. In many parts of Missouri, especial- ly Saline County and other river coun- ties, reports were sent out during the past winter of the absolutely tmpass- able condition of the roads. Many in- land towns were isolated for weeks and it was impossible for them to be reached, except on foot or horseback. Wagons carrying supplies were Stalled in the mud, and at one time it was feared people would really suffer for want of food. Much Work in South. On roads in such counties, as well as in the mountainous counties of the southern part of the State. much work would be necessary before they would be in proper condition. The Governor thinks there Is little reason why there should be a poor “, road in Missouri, and he believes his — are shared by the average citi- The farmer realizes the value of a food road in some | his produce to market, The towns depending an the farming country about them know that, to a great extent, the upbuild- ing and the growth of the town de- pands on the good roads leading to it, enabling the farmer to get into town to sell his produce and to buy what ‘he cannot raise on the farm. The man In the city, who has driven over the county roads, also knows how much depends on good highways. After a careful study of the sub- ject, the Governor is fully convinced ' f00d roads can best be obtained through a systematic organization to be formed upon identically the -@ame lines &s the Missouri school sys- tem, There are no better schools in the country than those of Missouri. Next in importance to good schools, the Governor believes, are good roads, and he sees, in adhering to the school System organization, the success of the good roads movement. ‘SEE the 600 ‘Offers of House- ‘hold Goods, ‘Horses and Vehicles, Auto- mobiles, } Machinery, Etc. | :

“The public interest more particularly to the meeting because the gas producers have decided to send a commission composed of five members. with statisticians. clerks and interpre- ters. to investigate the methods of gas production and distribution in the large centers of populations of Great Britain and Continental Europe. “The convention will be § interested greatly in the plans of the St. Louis gas makers on account of the recent successful engineering .ventures made under the direction of Vice-President Cowdrey, including the construction of the largest and most complete gas mak- ing plant in the world. Plans for Enlargement. Of the plans of the St. Louis gas concern, to meet the requirements of the population of one-million which the gas producers of this city be- lieve will be the condition five years hence, the people of the city have heard but little. The plans are in a general way included in a petition now before the city council to vacate portions of certain unimproved streets in the South St. Louis commons, be- tween Broadway and the Iron Mountain railroad on the bank of the river Des Peres. Contemplating the removal of the gas works now located near the river at the foot of Rutger and Mullanphy streets, and a considerable reduction in the gost of production on account of the new location, Vice-President Cowdrey says: “Our plans at the River Des Peres are for the expenditure of several millions. We have a tract 2 blocks wide along the north bank of the Des Peres from Broadway to the Mississippi, and a larger tract just opposite on the south bank, in al) two hundred acres. Our plan is to divert somewhat the tortuous course of the River Des Peres from Broad- way to the Mississippt and excavate a channel 2000 feet long, 280 feet wide at the surface and 60 feet deep, mak- ing a section of canal of greater pro- portions than the Panama ditch. To Get Cheap Coal. “By towing coal from Pittsburg and unloading with an automatic digger and conveyor into our plants on the banks of the river, we will get our raw material for coal gas at $1.75 per ton—which is ,consider- ably less than we have been paying. We will provide a storage capacity for coal of one million tons, & supply being kept on hand constantly for three to six months consumption. “Then we will provide four new s holders, each of 8,000,000 feet gapacity. increasing our holder capacity from 12,- 000,000 feet to 46,000,000 feet. We will establish a coal gas plant with a capac- {ity for 40,000,000 feet per day, and a water gas plant of the same capacity, making our combined producting ability nearly twice as much as our holders will contain at one time. This, we be- lieve, will provide us with means of sup- plying the city when it gets a million or more population.’’ Other Advantages. Mr. Cowdrey referred to the benefits that would accrue to South St. Louis through the establishment at the remote southern end of the city of gas works that will furnish employment to 1000 workmen, whose wages are not less in any instance than $1.75 per day, and average double that sum for skilled or technical work. All surroundings are al- so favorable for the establishment of homes by the workingmen, as both rent- = and prices for residence property are ow. “Work on the new plant, Mr. Cowdrey says, will be commenced as soon as the city makes the order vacating the streets. The task of converting and deepening the channel of the River Des achgg will be commenced at the same time. FILIPINOS BURN AND LOOT CITY

as ; }the recent past. , dersee today, Wilhelm Meyer, formerly of San Francisco, was arrested, charged with the murder of Mrs. Mary Vogel, his aunt, a wealthy woman of 78 years. There is evidence that Meyer stran- gied the aged woman in Wildungen, Germany, last July. It is charged that he packed her body in a trunk which Mrs. Vogel owned and filled every crev- ice in it with quicklime in the hope that it would consume the corpse and so conceal the crime. Meyer, a sallow, consumptive-looking man of 31 years, it is charged by the authorities, rid himself of the old lady because she objected to, and, seeming- ly, was jealous of his attentions to Sophie Christiani, a _ delicate little brown-haired woman, 23 years old. Be- sides, Meyer plotted, it is alleged, to possess himself of his aunt’s money. Sophie Christiani fled with him to this country on the Graf Waldersee. Her name appears on the steamer's second cabin passenger list ‘“‘Frau Meyer.” Woman Kunows Nothing. Unless she is a very good actress, So- phie Christiani- was ignorant of her lover’s deed until they arrived in the land where she expected only happi- ness. For Meyer had promised to take her to New Orleans and marry her. First she clung to Meyer; then shrank from him. Then she became hysterical, and, weeping bitterly, approached Meyer and demanded in German: “Did you do this?” “Nein,” he answered weakly. When the Graf Waldersee was at quarantine Capt. Gueist, the German Consul here, received a cablegram from Herr Von. Ruden, First State Attorney of Frankfort-on-the-Main, which con- tained details of Mrs. Vogel's murder, and asked that Meyer be apprehended. The Consul informed Commissioner of Immigration Watchorn, and it was agreed that Meyer and Sophie Christiant should be detained on Ellis Island on the pretext that an inquiry would be held to determine their fitness to land. Then Consul Gueist got a warrant for the arrest of both the man and woman. To Wildungen From Frisco. Meyer, who is a furniture dealer, and wealthy old Mrs. Vogel left San Fran- cisco two years ago and went to the little town of Wildungen, in the princt- pality of Waldeck. More than a year ago Meyer met Sophie Christiani, an at- tractive woman. He fell in love with her, and finding his affection recipro- cated, went to live with her. Mrs. Vogel and an American woman, who lived with her, protested often and angrily against Meyer's association with the woman. ._He and his aunt quarreled often: he threatened her so that she asked the town police to protect her from him. Mrs. Vogel disappeared from Wildun- gen last July. People marvelled that one so old should take a journey so long, but seemingly no suspicion at- tacned to her nephew. On April 24 last Meyer arrived in Frankfort. He left a trunk and some other baggage at an express company’s office, saying that he would store the trunk there for three months, but take the other baggage in a few days, as he intended to go abroad for a while. Meyer passed several days alone in Frankfort, but he wrote to Sophie Christiani, who was still in Wildungen, to rejoin him. She went to 4Frankfort and the pair vanished. Quicklime Failed. But the quicklime failed of its pur- pose. The trunk was opened. In it in distorted position, lay Mrs. Vogel's body, half consumed by lime. The man was traced to the Graf Waldersee and his arrest arranged for, upon arrival here. A crowd of passengers surrounded the officers here, and soon got an inklin of what Meyer was accused of. So di Sophie Christiani, and she drew her- self away from the man to whom she had clung and stared at him as if hor- ror-stricken. The couple were put in a carriage and there the woman had another revulsion of feeling. She kept asking Marshal Bernhardt why she was arrested. She then tried to _ console Meyer, who repulsed her. On her way to Commissioner Shields’ office, Bern- hardt asked Meyer: “Have you ever been in this country before?"’ ‘‘That’s nobody's ped the prisoner, and another word would he say. - Before the commissioner, cain were formally charged with Mrs. Vogel's mur- der. It was then the woman became hysterical, wept bitterly, walked up to Meyer and demanded: “Did you do this?'’ Is Meyer's Aunt. Then she asked who had been killed. “rau Vogel is Meyer's aunt and came with him to Wildungen about two years ’ she said. “I Know she cannot be dead, for I saw her trunk at Frankfort- on-the-Main before we sailed for this country.” business,”’ not snap very trun “Mrs. V ring New Meyer to the Tombs prison Meyer had 600 marks, ebout aoe a pentaite in his kets.

matic moment in the history of railroad- ing in the United States will be marked on Sept. 1 next, when a gong is sounded in the New York Central Railroad Sta- tion and a signal is flashed which will change, in one minute, the motive power of a multiplex railway system from steam to electricity. With the sounding of this bell, locom- tives will disappear. The blinding clouds of steam will no longer choke the tun- nel north of Forty-second street. In place of the ponderous, puffing engines will come electric locomotives and trains of multiple unit cars. A new system of signaling, insuring greater safety than any method yet devised, and installed at a cost of $2,000,000, will go into opera- tion. What is called the initial zone of elec- trification extends from the Forty-sec- ond Street Station to High Bridge on the main line, a‘distance of seven. and one- tenth miles, and to Wakefield on the Harlem road, a fraction over twelve and a half miles. But early in 1907 the elec- trical service will extend to North White Plains on the Harlem branch, 24 miles, and to —Creton on the Hudson River road. After that the electrification will in- clude Albany, and then, as the problem works itself out, to Buffalo, and everntu- ally over the entire system. Grade Crossing Obstacle. The next step which is ready to be taken, however. will be to Croton and to North White Plains,. and the only obstacle in the way of more rapid ad- vancement is the grade crossing, which has to be abolished by the due and tedious process of law. As soon as the initial zone is in op- eration the through trains from the West, drawn by steam locomotives, will be attached to electric locomo- tives at High Bridge, and so taken into the New Grand Central Station. Outgoing trains of motor cars will be run by their own power from Forty- second street to High Bridge, and there will be coupled to steam loco- motives to continue the journey. The same method of shifting from one form of motive power to the oth- er will apply to Harlem road; but as the electrification continues’ the steam horses will be further and fur- ther away, until finally they are dis- continued altogether and the entire system run by electricity, making greater speed, insuring safety as ab- solute as human ingenuity can de- vise, and a comfort and cleanliness not possible with the conduct of the most perfect steam road in the world. 95-Ton Locomotives, One hundred and eighty motor cars will be ready to run over the elec- trified road by September and electric locomotives will take the place of ev- ery steam locomotive now running between Forty-second street and High Bridge on the one road and Wakefield on the other. The electric locomotive weighs 95 tons and carries four motors of novel construction, operated by a current collected by four third-rail shoes. It is provided with automatic air brakes, whistle and bell ringer. A pneumatic device sands the rails to prevent slip- ing. The maximum power is 3000 horse-power, and with a 600-ton train on a level it can easily attain a speed of 60 miles an hour without the slightest jar or lateral rolling.

| FY-COV. TAYLOR DEFEATS. CARMACK Nominated for U. 8. Senator in Tennessee By, Perhaps, 20,000 Majority. NASHVILLE, Governor Robert L. nominated for United States Senator over Senator E. W. Carmack, by a majority estimated at 15,000 to 20,000. Nearly every county counted on by Senator Carmack went against him. The only county standing by him to any extent was Shelby, which gave him a majority of about 5000. Taylor carried Senator Carmack's native county of Sumner by a small major- ity, and also beat him in Davidson where Senator Carmack was for many years in journalism. There were numerous causes for Carmack’'s defeat, but one that prob- ably contributed most was the idea prevailing among the rank and “file that he was responsible for the snap action in the legislature in the spring of 1905, by which Governer Jas. RB. Frazier was elected Senator to suc- ceed Wm. B. Bate, deceased. Taylor and McMillan were didates for the vacancy, but before they could get their forces together & caucus was foreed and Frazier was nominated and the cry of machine domination over the common people also contributed -to Carmack's un- doing, most of the leaders being for him ‘against Taylor. ee eee @espeeneeee

Freeport, Ill., Old Man Who, Resembled Picture of Rockefeller’s Parent.

NEIGHBORS BELIEVE IT

Stock Transaction, Told of by Banker, Is Cited as Proof. Special to the Post-Dispatch. FREEPORT, Ill., May 12.—Dr. Will- fam Livingston, who died here last evening, was believed by many to be the father of John D. Rockefeller, ow- ing to the exact likeness of a photo- graph in McClure’s Magazine last July aceompanying an article written by Ida Tarbell. IAvington’s habits earlier in life were identical with the elder Rockefeller’s, and when the picture was published every one who knew Livingston de- clared it was his picture. Not only

were the features the same, but the manner of dress, even to the cravatless collar and the diamond in the shirt front. One of the most curious incidents connected with the affair was that told today by Escom Mayer, secretary of the Union Loan and Building Associa- tion. Mayer does not recollect the ex- act date of the occurrence, but it was while he was cashier of the German Bank, which position he left !n 1892, Mayer says that one day Dr. Living- ston entered the bank and presented a draft that called for $3000, which Mayer Says was for a dividend on Standard Oil stock, for Dr. Livingston told him so at the time. He said that the stock was worth $75,000 and that he had se- cured it for a thousand or so dollars from John D. Rockefeller himself. How He Got Oil Stock. He then proceeded to explain the cir- cumstances. He said that when he lived in New York he was well ac- uainted with John D. Rockefeller. nee Rockefeller was in need of money ~—it was long ago—and he tried to sell TAvingston some oll stock, but he did not care to buy. Rockefeller’ then asked him to loan him the money for one year, secured by his note, and a deposit of oll stock, and at the end of the year he could have the option of his money or the stock. Dr. Livingston Raneti Roman’s ‘“Manashe”’ to Be Presented at Grand Opera House, BY 0. LEONARD. For the first time in the history of the Stage in America, a play translated from the Roumaninan will be presented, Wednesday night of next week, at the Grand Opera House, by the Thalia Yid- dish players of New York. The play, ‘“‘Manashe,”’ is written by Ranetti Ro- man, a young writer who attained fame in Roumania. A work of art, the play has been presented successfully abroad for the last few years. One fact that will show best, perhaps, the worth of ‘‘Manashe’”’ is that it has been present- ed repeatedly in the Roumanian na- tional theaters in Bucharest and Jassy. in spite of the fact that the story of the play is from Jewish life and that it Is written by a Jew. In this country it may not be easy to understand why a work of art should be neglected because its author is a Jew. But when one transports his thoughts to a country where the Jews have no political rights, it will easily be seen that there is always a struggle for Jew- ish artists. It is this that has driven many a writer, painter, lecturer or mu- sician of talent, who happened to be a Jew, to leave the country where recogni- tion wag slow in coming or where genius brought only derision. As a result there are many talented. men in almost all professions, who, though natives of Rou- mania, have left the country of their birth forever. Under such circumstances Ran¢ti Roman produced a play which has broken down the portals of stupidity and prejudice and made its triumphal entrance into the Roumanian National Theater. Recognition came from high and low. The Queen herself, Carmen Sylva, saw the play and expressed her appreciation of it. “Manashe” deals with the much vexed question, in Europe, of the as- Similation of the Jews with the na- tions in whose midst they live. It js the struggle of the old generation with the new. Manashe, an old man, represents the old, his children, the semi-mo4ern ideas. They are educat- ed, They mix with the Gentiles. A love affair between Manashe’s grand- daughter and a Roumanian judge is the result. Intermarriage follows and here Manashe’s heart breaks, he dies and with his death the happiness of the lovers who, disregard religious, barriers, comes. It is the old dying away to make place for the new. The translator, M. Hermalin, whom the writer met in New York, is a na- tive of Roumania and is prominent in

the Yiddish literature of America.

consented. At the end of the year Rockefeller asked him whether he wished his money or preferred to re- tain the stock. e thought a moment and ‘replied that he would keep the stock. It has been in his possession ‘ever since. Mayer was one of those who identified the picture as that of Dr. Livingston. The widow of Livingston has admit- ted that Immediately upon the appear- ance of the magazine article she had ‘noticed a marked resemblance between her husband and that of Rockefeller senior. She said that the good parts of the descriptive article applied,to her husband, -but the bad parts did not. When asked whether she thought her husband the subject of Miss Tarbell’s article, she replied: “T don’t know what to think. no more about it than others now. Dr. Livingston was in such physical condition at the time and has _ bgen since, that his opinion on the subject could not be obtained. Many residents of Freeport are still of the opinion that the man who died last night was John D. Rockefeller’s father. ; Mixes Tarbell Uncomplimentary, | Miss Tarbell’s assertions about the elder Rockefeller were far from compli- mentary. She alleges that though suc- ful,in business, the business was of such a peculiar nature that few persons knew much about him. e was con- tinually moving about the country, and a ared at home at long intervals. Still his family was always maintained: in fairly good circumstances, WITTE PROBABLE J, S* AMBASSADOR Desires Washington Portfolio and May Overcome Power- ful Opposition. le to the Post-Dispatch and New York World. Copyright, 1906, by the Press Pub. Co. (New York Worl.) ST. PETERSBURG, May 12.—It is learned here today on good authority that M. Witte has expressed a desire to be sént as Ambassador to Washington. Powerful influences are being exerted against his appointment to this post, but it is likely that the Czar will comply with M. Witte'’s request. The feature of the second session of the lower house of Parliament today was a great demonstration in favor of amnesty. When a mass of congratulatory mess- ages from all parts of the Empire were read, several of, them from political pris- dners in Jail or in exile, the members, except a little group on the extreme right, rose, cheering in a body, the gal- leries joining in the applause. A motion was presented to send re- plies to the messages, but this was de- clared to be out of order. The balloting for Vice-Presidents to- day resulted by 428 to 361 votes in the choice of the combination ticket deter- mined er last night—Prince Peter Dolgorioukoft and Prof. Grodeskul of Kharkoff. The draft of the reply of the House to the Hite from the throne at the open- ing of Parliament has not yet been com- leted. The Constitutional Democrats nvited two representatives of the peas- ants, one Pole and one Jew, to partici- pate in drawing it to secure solidarity. The main difference of opinion is in the wording of the intimation to the Emperor that the council of the empire is an anachronism. The reply will declare for a constitu- tional monarchy with full Parliament ights, a responsible ministry chosen om the majority, full amnesty for po- litical prisoners, univerasal suffrage, equality before the law and the absvli- tion of the death penalty. The Social Democrats and other pro- letariat organizations have ordered a demonstrative one day's strike on the Russian May Day. It will be of a peace- ful character. Fish Climbs Trees, Of all the land-frequenting fish. the most famous is the climbing perch of India, which not only walks out of the water, but also mounts into trees by means of sharp spines situated near its fread and tail. it has a peculiar breath- ing apparatus, which enables it to ex- tract oxygen from the water stored up within a small chamber near its gills, for use while on land.

I know MAY | special Cab though they were never considered persons of means. It is charged by Miss Tarbell that when the old man a red in Richford,} N. ¥., he posed as a deaf and dumb ped- dier, and for a long time managed to ool his acquaintances, making them write their conversation to him. No one here is certain as to the exact te that Dr. Livingston arrived in rt. At the time Miss Tarbell wrote she said that he was living in *, @ small town in Iowa. When he left fre ig not known, but it is thought os the notoriety that came to him of the articles of Miss Tarbell it necessary for him to leave in to lead the peaceful life which it considered would be in harmony the wishes of his son.

A high city official who had seen the ballots said yester- day that 141 of the 301 ballots in the first precinct box had been discovered to be irregular. The majority of these ballots were duplicates—that is. two ballots with the same poll book number. There were algo many triplicates and -in some cases four and even five ballets were found with the same number on their backs. The Board of Election Commission- ers cannot decide whether these ir- regular ballots will be thrown out. The ballots are arranged in different classes by the board and a report made to the court and the court will de- cide whether the ballots shall be thrown out. It is the opinion of the lawyers watching the recount that the -majority of ballots which the Board of Election Commissioners will report to be “Irregular’’ will be de- clared by the court to be “fraudu- lent,” and will be thrown out of the count. In the second precinct the number of irregular votes was not as great as in the first. But in this precinct six bal- lots caused more trouble for the Com- missioners than all the rest combined. These were the Hagerman-Aloe ballots. The printed name of Hagerman ap- peared on the ballots unscratched, and yet Aloe was-written in below. The Commissioners decided the ballots should be tallied for Aloe. In the third, fourth and fifth - cincts. it was said, that the ballots were in a better shape than in the first two precincts. FRESHMEN SPOIL THE BARN DANCE

Washington University Sopho-| mores and Oo-Eds Put to Flight by Odors. Washington University freshmen are telling a wierd tale about the way five of them spoiled the sophomores’ barn dance. ; According to their .story, when the sophomores, accompanied by co-eds, went to St. Charles on a special car for a barn dance at the Fair Grounds near there, the five freshmen, in an au- tomobile, were not far behind. In their automobile they had a hydrogen sulphite generator. They followed - at a onservative dis- tance the five hay wagons on which the trip was made from the end of the car line to the barn and while the dancers were dancing, they set up the generator under the floor and connected it with a crack In the floor by means of rubber hose. When the dance was at its height the generator was started and an odor as from a thousand ancient eggs permeated the barn. The dancers fied from the barn and, taking advantage of the consternation, the freshmen say they hypothecated three ice cream freezers and 165 cakes and placed the spoils in their automo- biles and gave the sophomores the merry honk-honk as they speed away toward St. Charles. Sent Special Car Away. They hunted up the drivers of the hay wagons, they say, and filled them with St. Charles beer and told them not to go back for the barn dancers until 8 a. m. They then, they say, representing themselves as a committee of the sopho- mores, sent the special car away. Returning to the university, they say they wakened the rest of the fresh- men and they ate ice cream and cake on the campus, When the sophomores reached 8t. Charles, according to the freshmen, and found the car gone, the girls were taken to the home of George Angert, presi- dent of the First National Bank, and the boys rustled for themselves until the cars started in the morning. The version given by the sophomores is slightly at variance with this They say some young men in an automo- bile tried to send the private car away, but failed and that was all that hap- pened. From a disinterested student source comes another version. This ig that the freshmen deposited some hydrogen sulphite at the barn, where it would do the most good and raised quite an odor, and told the crew in charge of the car to go away, but the conductor walked to the barn to find out if it was straight and found that it wasn't. DRIVERS ARRESTED. Accused. of Going Too Fast in Crowded Broadway. » Two drivers were arrested on Broad- way yesterday and taken to the Chest- nut Street Police Station, accused of fast and careless driving. John Wittgenstein of 1 Hickory street, who was driving a wagon at a faster rate than Police Schaeperkoetter thought the safety of the mass of hu- manity at Broadway and Washington avenue demanded, refused to get down from his wagon when his horse had been brought to a stop. Policeman Florida, stationed at the same corner, who has been the cause of several fines being levied against speedy chauffeurs and drivers recently, saw the other iceman holding the reins. When egpennnese persisted in refusing to allow the policemen to t up on the wagon seat and drive to Be police station, Florida yanked him from the seat with a jerk that made the threng of pedestrians stop and look. A harge of resisting arrest, as well as ast driving, wae registered against Wittgenstein at the station. BSeveraj other men were with him in th Andrew Evans of 1041 road t Locust street uad, the Chestnut Street with fast driving. _—_——— St. Louis has. more Post-Dispatch readers every day than it has homes. “First in everything.”’.

WOULD LEASE FAIR GROUNDS FOR PARK Board of Public Improvements Will Hold a Hearing on Plan.

RENTAL TO BE $100,000

At End of 13 Years City May Purchase Tract for $467,000. A public hearing on the offer made by the owners of the old Fair Grounds to. lease or sell the tract to the city to be used as a public park, will be held be- fore the Board of Public Improvements Tuesday morning. It is expected that the representatives of several business and civic corporations and many North Side residents will be on hand to urge the purchase of the site. Ju ge Marshall, on behalf of the own- ers of the property, has drawn up an ordinance which if approved by the Board of Public Improvements will be introduced in the Municipal Assembly. The plan is for the owners to lease the tract to the city for an annual rental of $100,000 for 13 years, with the priv- flege to the city to buy the tract at the expiration of the lease for $467,000. hus it will cost the city, under the offer, $1,767,000 to obtain permanent pos- session of the old Fair Grounds. Opinion is divided as to whether : oe price put. upon the property is too igh. The Assessor values the prop- AN at between $1,200,000 and $1,400,- $1,250,000 Is Enough. Judge Marshall in setting the value on the tract at $1,760,000 says that this estimate is based on the value placed upon it by taxation. The rate of assessment, he says, is fixed at 66 per cent. The Assessor says that since the Old Fair Grounds was exempt from taxation during the years when there was no reason why it should be, has assessed the property at 66 per cent of what he thinks is its true value. This explains the ap- parent discrepancy between the es- timates of Judge Marshall and _ the Assessor. J. H. Gundlach, a large North Side Teal estate man, says that he doesn’t think the Fair Grounds owners should get more than $1,250,000 for the tract. “If they retailed the tract in sub- divisions,’’ said Mr. Gundlach, “they ¢onildn’t make as much as $1,250,000 after they allowed for the $300,000 or so improvements that they would have to make, They would probably be able to retail the tract in subdivis- ions for $1,420,000 after they had spent between $250,000 and $400,000 in improvements.” PRAYERS NO AVAIL (ILLS RELATIVE Religious Exhorter Loses Mind in Effort: to Convert Special to the Post-Dispatch.

FISH FORCE STOP IN SHIP TO MID-OCEAN 2»

Lh wr Special to the Post-Dispatch. PHILADELPHIA, May 12:—It was the first time in the entire career of Capt. U. T. Bailey of the American clipper ship W. F. Babcock, which arrived here from San Francisco, that he re- ported any unusual incident of a voy- age. For years this sailor had been content to remain in the background while his fellow-skippers stepped into the limelight with strange tales of the sea, which went a long way in main- taining the traditional veracity of sea- men. Many times he made the voyage from San Francisco to this city, but each time when the chroniclers of ship- news asked him on his arrival whether anything unusual had happened on the journey his_reply was a negative toss of the head. When the Babcock arrived here this time the reporters visited Capt. Bailey, simply because it was in line with the routine of their work. They had given him up long ago as a source of inter- esting information, but when they vis- ited the ship they wé¢re surprised with the announcement that the Captain had something to tell. Gains Fame at a Bound. The long silence was to be broken, however, and they awaited anxiously the tale of the uncommunicative sea Captain. When finally the story was told all those who heard it took off their hats to Capt. Bailey, and it was generally acknowledged that with one tale he had stepped into the foremost rank of the spinners of fish stories. This was the tale of the veracious sea captain: “Dec. 10, in latitude 5.25 north, long-

All about the ship and as far as the eye could see were thousands of fish. In the school were dolphins, sharks, bonitos and a fish of the tunny tribe, about three feet in length; albicores, large fish of the mackerel family, and barracude, fish from six to ten feet long. ’ “After having caught many fish, among which was a dolphin weighing 19 pounds, it was thought, as night was approaching and owing to the fact that a@ bonito, which had been hooked, but got away with both hook and bright red rag which was used as bait, was caus- ing much commotion in the water, that it was the last of the fish, but it proved to be only the beginning. Fish Stop Ship. “On the morning of Dec. % the school evidently having taken the ship for the mother of all fish, concentrated their forces around her, and the craft actual- ly lost steerage way and was brought to a standstill. “We had ‘hailed the appearance of the fish with delight, as is always the case on a deep-water voyage, because it means a temporary let-up of an exist- ence on ‘salt horse,’ but they had now become a menace as well as a source of some danger. “Fortunately, the following day a fresh breeze sprang up and, clapping on all sail, the ship began to move and a course was set for Cape Horn. We were unable, however, to rid ourselves of the school of fish, which followed us until Dec. 31. We were then in latti- tude 2 south, longitude 131, and close to Pitcairn Island. Here a ship crossed our bow. It proved a new attraction and the fish left us, after following the ship more than 2000 miles.”’ Lest anyone doubted the story, Capt. Bailey showed his log, which contained ‘due entry of the remarkable school of fish.

WIFE'S. GLANCES HISTURB SERMONS Preacher Sues Champion Cake Baker for Divorce—Quotes Godless Words. Special to the Post-Dispatch. ANDERSON, Ind., May 12.—In a complaint filed for divorce from his wife, Bertha Haffner of this city, Rev. James E. Haffner, pastor of the Uni- versalist Church, alleged that his wife had called him “a tin Jesus immacu- lately conceived hypocrite,’ and that she would take his Bible and work passages So as to interfere with his work, and finally that she would go to his church, sit in a front pew in direct gaze of the plaintiff and by facial ex- pression undertake to disturb his preaching. All of which Rev. Haffner alleges was cruel and inhuman treat- ment. The comple separated after six years of married life.

ALGIERS, May’ 12.—Martin, the man who barricaded himself on his farm at Palestro recently, and defied the troops and gendarmes, has been shot dead. His Fort Chabrol is nearly in ruins after a bombardment. The re- fractory man was a French colonist, and was wanted by the police for some forging transactions of which he was accused. He refused to sur- render to the gendarmes, and kept, them at bay with a rifle and a revolv- er. He had also, it was thought, laid mines and man-traps round his im- provised fort. Martin declared that he was a better man than. Gen. Stoes- sel, and that he would hold out long- ery than Port Arthur. As his. capture was considered impossible, shots were fired into his house, and then the ar- tillerymen sent’ shelle into the place. Some of these missed at 1000 wards, but two took effect, and damaged the house to'a great extent. Gendarmes and troops advanced after the bom- bardment, entered the improvised fort, and found Martin lying dead on the floor of his kitchen. He had been killed by a bullet. Brother Aids King Peter.

CHECK WORTH 2 CENTS BRINGS $1 Slip, Used for Speculative Pur- poses, Makes Round of Ten Offices. An endless chain check, written and used for purely speculative purposes, has just completed a round of 10 large St. Louis offices. Each person who handled it bought it “sight unseen,” the way boys trade pocketknives, and each pledged himselt to sell it to someone else on the same terms. The game began two weeks ago, when John 38S. Carter of the McNair-Harris Realty Co., took the piece of paper trom his pocket and said to some friends: “I have a check here drawn on the 1 will sell

We'll start it around and see how long it will keep going.”’ Edward Wyman bought the check for $1.50. When he looked at the face of it he hustled out to find another pur- chaser, who bobbed-up in the person of J. W. Darst, an. obliging . young man, who handed Mr. Wyman $8 for the check. : The next bidder was J. Wallace Bren- nan, who bought it for the small sum of 1 cent. Mr. Brennan sold it to Sig- mund Baehr for 7 cents. John C. Knapp thought so well of it that he gave $11 for it, and a few minutes later sold it to Marion S. Fuqua for The next buyers were Leo W.

The Judge is a husky Scandinavian above average height. Although he is respected by all his neighbors, it is safe to say that even in his youth the Judge was never awarded a prize in a baby show. During the afternoon, after brief sessions with Miss Hennessey in the parlor, the Judge. appeared at intervals with a mighty gloom like that of Jove stamped on his lofty brow. Advice and encouragement were handed him on all sides by friends who surrounded him. So, stimulated by their belief in his ul- timate success, he returned to the parlor Toward the end of the afternoon, when the throng in the office began to look like a crowd waiting for election returns. the Judge appeared with the exultation of victory shining in his bright blue eyes. he couple dined together and the Judge’s anxious friends dispersed, for, as the two convensed, the cooing of tur- tle doves was like a scraping match in comparison, and everybody felt that all was well.

Special Cable to the Post-Dispatch and New York Worl!: PARIS, May 12.—John H. Carter of Chicago, who is under a wager involv- ing $10,000 to make a tour around the globe on foot, stopped here for a few days’ rest. Carter wagered in 1902 that he could walk 43,100 miles in six years. He started in November of the same year and has since made his appearance in different parts of the globe. In some cities he stays long enough to take a good rest. He states he has yet to walk miles, which he hopes to make before his time expires. “While it is somewhat of a dangerous undertaking,”’ says Carter, “a venture that is full of hardships, yet I enjoy it greatly and I am sure it will always be pleasant for me to remember the jour- ney. After it is over I will have enough to take a Jong rest. When ‘you think of this as a purely business matter, you will see that after all clearing nearly $10,000 is a great deal, but-it is not worth the pains that one encounters, were it not for the pleasures and the desire to win.

In- Stead he went to Crawfordsville and engaged in the contracting business under the name of Frederick Smith. There he met Miss Mary Fink, an el- derly maiden, and, Aug. 1, 1905, came to Lafayette. Aug. 15 they were mar- ried. He told wife No. 2 that he had + been married, but that his wife was dead. Wife No. 2 was possessed of considerable means. Within a week after they were married she let a con- tract for an elegant home in this city. Wife No. 1, deserted, was forced to ‘work as a domestic. Last week in a dream a dead sister appeared and told her that her husband was living with another woman. She learned from some friends that a man answering Johnson's description had been seen at Crawfordsville, ahd she went to that place. She found relatives of wife No. 2 who told her he was in Lafayette. She came here and Johnson was ar- rested. There was an interesting scene when wife No. 1 and wife No. 2 met. The latter fainted and Johnson ex- pressed a desire to plead guilty and

Kline of this city was converted, or rather his resolution to vote for the continuation of the dis- tribution of free seed to farmers, was strengthened by the following letter he received in Washington from this city, written by his private stenographer, Miss Mary Crowley: ‘Did you ever read ‘Oliver Twist’ by Charles Dickens? And if you have, do you remember the famous author’s chapter how the thieves came to e Nancy? Well, that’s me They hee seen all here, and they all came for seed. Gomme were long, and some were short; some were fat and some were lean; some had one eye, and some had two; but they all came to see Nancy. “They have come from the slate and cement regions, from the cities, the bor- oughs, the country districts and all sec- tions. All classes have come, including the Slavs and Huns, with buckets, bask- ets and bags for the seed that Uncle Sam so generously, properly and oon- siderately deals out to his people.

LONDON, May 12. — Twenty-two British soldiers have gone on strike. They belonged to a detachment of Durham Light Infantry, and the strike occurred while they were performing re- lief duty at Haulbowline Island, Cork Harbor.

They were promptly arrested and will be given a rest until such time as the courtmartial hears their defense. $225,000 FOR A VELASQUEZ. Special Cable to the Post-Dispatch an New York World. . my

Profit Taking on Favorable News Gauses Break in Stocks,

LOW LEVELS IN GRAIN LT Cit te lee Bear Raid Brings Cotton Slump of Eight to Thirteen Points. nan Special to the Vost-Dispatch. NEW YORK, May 12.—Tke Evening Posi in its weekiy scview of the mar- kets today Says: Wall Street—Three important changes in the money market of the past two weeks are reflected in today’s bank statement—arrival of gold from Europe, -offset this week by return to the Treas- ury of public money deposited to “facili- tate’’ them; Jast week’s extensive Stock Exchange liquidation, not fully shown in the ‘“‘averages’’ of that week’s bank return; and the heavy shifting of loans from this market to London, The §$4,- 995,000 increase in surplus reserves re- sults most immediately from the $16,- 460,000 loan reduction, and it is fair to presume that Europe’s assumption of Wall Street loans has had most to do with that. The course of this week's stock mar- ket das indicated new creation of loans, and of itself must have gone some dis- tance to offset last week's liquidation. The surplus left by this week’s sub- stantial increase is above the average reported at this date in recent years, but considerably below the usual figure between 1891 and 1909. : On the Stock Exchange the statement was received rather apathetically—not a surprising result when an improving bank’ position has been ‘‘discounted’”’ un- interruptedly since the beginning of the week, Highest prices today were reached shortly after the opening, when a frac- tiowal advance occurred. After this stacks grew very dull and gave way sharply after the bank statement ap- peared. It was evident that the fami- liat phenomenon of “profit taking on favorable news" was being presented. AC sharp movement in Paris ex- change against the London market was a significant incident of the day; for the steady rise of that rate in the past seven days—from 25.15% to 25.1914 francs—has méasured the aovement of French capital to the relief of London and New York. This mevement seems, from.today’s 1% céntime decline, to be pretty much completed, just as a fall in the move- ment of English capital to.New York has been marked by the 2% cents rise in our Own exchange on London, since last week. Our own market closed m Syed Pe to Pret ye of a point or eabouts, from yesterday’ ‘ am ty y y's closing Paris Capital Released. The position created by the San Francisco disaster, and the financial developments which followed it, are extremely curlous+-so much so as to a the judicious hesitate in their p ctions. Two facts in the situation are certain; The country’s money sup- ply has been increased by some $50,- 0¢0,000, and simultaneously the Paris market has changed its attitude and is releasing, for i.ondon’s benefit and ours, the store of capital at which ether money markets have been look- ing wistfully, but which up to thie time has been held with a rigid hand. liow far this changed position is a re- sult.of the smoothing over of Europe's atic quarrels, how far of the completed Russian loan flotation, and iow far of the episode on the Pacific Coast, is debatable. European critics maintain the two first. mentioned theories, but it is easily possible that the’ third is the true explanation. It is & Well known characteristic of the French market that it will unlock its stores of cupitul and release its gold when’ demands based upon real ne- ces¥ity confront it. hat is to be the outcome of Eu- rors wholesale release ef capital and gcis:..

Cotton—The cotton market took a re- actionary turn this morning, partly on scattered liquidation by the trading ele- ment and a bear raid induced by a more favorable weather ony 4 and absence of much outside buying from which ap- peared to be a temporary withdrawal of recent aggressive bull support. The mar- ket, after opening firm and advancing to 2 points throughout the list from last night’s closing quotations, slumped 8 to 13 points from these advanced prices under the lead of the July option, which was made the principal object of the bear attack. Stop loss orders were encountered in July on the scale down and this accelerated the selling by local longs and encouraged the bear raiders to put out fresh lines of shorts with greater confidence. The May option, which was a very strong fqature early in the day, slumped with the rest of the list, but was well bought by spot dealers on the way down and the bull eHque’s »kers. There was no evidence of any strong b@ying in the rest of the list until the last half hour, when good buying of ly and October was resumed py these interests in the market. It rallied slight- ly“from the lowest prices. ipot cotton was reduced 5 points to the fluctuations. but the Southern spot markets were all firmly held at un- changed prices from yesterday.

Recovery in Prices Surprises Even the Most Sanguine Bulls.

Sharp Advances Are Scored by the Favorite Issues Dur- © ing the Week. The clouds rolled away on Wall sireet in the past week, and the sun is shining almost as brightly as ever. The recov- ery in prices has surprised even the most sanguine bulls, for the advances from the low day, in many of the high- priced, and favorite issues have reached over $20 per share. As has been the case many times dur- ing the past bull market, the specula- tive pubiic is now asking itself whether an actual bear marxet is on, or whether the recent decline is only a big roll in the old. upward movement, It must remembered that when stocks were not near their previous lev- el. that a pronounced setback was en- countered when Lawson made his raid on Amalgamated Copper. Again just one year when price level was 15 to 20 points below the bre the orn wn present range a liquidating movement was encountered and 2 severe decline resulted. Now comes the third pro- nounced setback and one which was by adverse market more backed temporarily conditions. The decline was the severe of the three, but this was nat- ural, seeing that prices in all instances were at the high point on the entire movement, and the upward swing had practically run itself for six months without any material setback, That the recovery-in the past week, has reached the proportions that it has, is due to the peculiar conditions that prevailed while the decline was at its height. With the destruction of San Francisco the opportunity was given certain powerful bear operators to make a successful raid on securitfs, cause heavy HNquidation from all sources and cause pessimism to stalk unbridled throughout the country. When the selling was at its height, however, all the adverse market factors in the situation were actually adjusting themselves. The coal strike was being settled on favorable terms. The money market, through the contraction of credits in the stock ‘market; and the importation of upward of $6,000,000 was adjusting it- self, and all the weak accounts in the brokerage houses were being swept in- to the strongest hands. Naturally with the cessation of the forced liquidation a look at the general situation which had been brought about while the selling was on, shows all the adverse factors in the situation prac- tically eliminated over night, and the recovery once started. {s the more pro- nounced, as prices rise, donfidence is restored, and the buyers see nothing left on which to base the bellef that further liquidation on the same heavy scale is to be expected. Whether the recovery can go still fur- ther before a setback of importance is encountered is, of course, problemat- ical, for all buyers in the past two weeks have substantial profits on their purchases and many will no doubt inclined to take them. That the re- covery will eventually extend further. however, there is the best grounds for the belief. In the first place, the coal strike has been removed as a factor, and in its re- moval one of the greatest menaces to higher prices has disappeared. A. coal strike would have been reflect- ed unfavorably in all lines of industry for months to come, would have made buyers of products for future delivery cautious in their purchases, and no doubt would s’&ave unfavorably _§af- fected the general prosperity of the country. With the removal of this influence, future buyers will make their purchases confidently, general business will not be interfered with in any way, and the prosperity of the country receive no set- back through these important channels, The other important factor in the situ- ation. the monev market, has a!'so been placed in a position where banking !n- terests are confident that excessive rates have passed. The imports of gold have been sufficient to give the specula- tive markets credits of over $200,000,000, figuring on a basis of 1 to 4 of the actual gold imported. The rebuilding of San Francisco will, of course, call for very heavy drains on the banks for some time to come. but much of this money will quickly find its way back to East- ern centers. The crop outlook at the present time is {deal; and the Government report on winter wheat, issued during the week, showing a percentage for May 1 of 91, compared to a percentage on April 1, of 89.1, is a bullish im- portance. Jenera: business and prospects also give every promise of the biggest year in the country’s history. And the de- mand for all products in steel and tron an: construction material from Frisco will no doubt mean many record break- ing statements of earnings for the con» anies directly interested. The bad fea- ure in the situation is the roliing wave of trust and corporation legislation that is sweeping the country. But with the adjournment of Congress shortly this factor should lose much of its weight. And even now opinion in the country is swinging towards the belief that the point is being reached where a reac- tion in sentiment is not far distant. As stated in this column many times before, if one is to take the past move- ments of the stock market, when condi- tions in the c@quntry were prosperous, values should reach well around théir recent higi) levels in the next six months. Following the panic of May 9, 1901, prices made almost complete recoverey in the summer and fall. The same was true of the Flower break some years previous, Which followed the demise of the bull leader, Gov. Flower. Now the market occupies relative position.as thgn. The country is prosperous and the Outlook bright. A sevure decline has been precipitated by a market condition that came over night in the Frisco disaster. Then comes the rebound. A study of the past price movements Indicates that almost a com- plete recovery shculd take place. To date the recovery. has been only about half. Trading in local securities showed vast improvement during the week and prices rose sharply all along the line. Many loca] securities, owing to the re- cent severe market shakeout, are selling at attractive figures. and local brokers are confident that from now on the ten- dency of prices will be upward.

Farmers Keep Eggs for Hatch- ing, Ingtead of Sell- " ing Them. Additional gains are shown each week in reports received at the State Bureau of Labor Statistics! at Jefferson City in the shipments of livestock and farm products in Missouri in 1905 over 1904. In all livestock there is an increase in 16 counties out of 114 from which re- ports have been received. There fs a slight decrease in shipments of eggs, but this is easily accounted for by the fact that there have been greatly increased shipments of poultry, showing that poul- try raisers have been keeping many eggs for hatching purposes instead of shipping them. Reports have been received from the following counties: Cole, Callaway, Au- drain, Cooper, Andrew, Adair, Benton, Bollinger, Cass, Johnson, Knox, La- clede, Iron. Montgomery, Monroe and Morgan.

PLEADS FOR EDUCATION

Religious Instruction in Public Schools a Necessity, He Argues. Special to ibe Post-Dispatch, ITHACA, N. Y., May 12.—Andrew D. White, ex-president of Cornell Univer- sity, spoke to the students on ‘‘Democ- Yacy and Education.” After describing {he downfall of most of the republics in the world's history he asked if there was any reason why the United States would not meet the same fate. “You will say we betieve in the peo- ple,’ he said. ‘“‘You say the voice of the MEMORIAL FOR CONFEDERATE DEAD ——

All the other reasons are plati- tudes, wholesaled by flatterers, retailed by phrasemongers, scattered abroad. by demagogues. There is but one thing— the development of better education of the people—to lift them above buffonery. Party cries and the wiles of chicanery will insure a fair discussion in public affairs and a realization of republican jgeals. The most important factor to develop in the majority of the people is sobriety of judgment above all bribes, trickery, hysterics. Think and talk sometimes of duties rather than to talk all the time of rights.” Mr. White outlined the substance of an. educational system in the public schools, with particular regard ‘to its training for citizenship, and then advo- ented religious instruction in the public sebools. tie said: : “No man’s training can be finished without it.

Don't Suffer Longer, You Can Have Instant Relief and a, Lasting Cure by Using Pyramid Pile Cure.

A Trial Package Mailed Free to All. The rectum, like the mouth, is lined with that soft, satiny materia] known as mucous membrane. Piles is a dis- ease of that membrane, and the blood vessels that lie under it. Fissure and Fistula affect the same membrane and belong to -the same family. Pyramid Pile Cure slipped into the bowel, melt and spread them- selves over the diseased and painful surface and act just as a salve would if the trouble was on the outside of the body and could be easily seen and gotten at. . The immediate relief they give even. _ in the most agonizing cases will startle ou, as it has already startled many housands of “doubting Thomases” be- fore; you, who have tried everything and sent for the sample package, firm- ly convinced that they would again be inted. But they weren't. Pyramid Pile Cure don’t disappoint. The cure. They _are for sale at all druggists at 50 cents a box and are worth an even hundred te the person who needs them. & - Mr. John Byrne of 2306 2d Av., New York City, writing under date of Jan- mary 17th, 1906, says: “I received the _ sample and used it right away.

This great work is to be a Splendid monument to be presented to the city | and to commemorate the Confederate soldiers and sailors who gave their lives in those years of strife which made his- tory in the early 60's. All our American cities are sadly in need of 'those works of art which are so delightful to the vision in European cities and which are epoch-marking in their historic value, and whatever tends to add to the interest and beauty of St. Louis is a subject near to all St. Louisans, irrespective of politics, creed or sectional narrowness. For many years these organizations have awaited the right time to begin this work, have done the things most this pleasant labor for that which ne- cessity demanded. Years ago the first organization to bear the name “‘Daughters of the Con- federacy,”’ fas formed in St. Louis. Since then the various chapters in the various states have united in one na- tional body known as the United Daughters of the Confederacy. ~ Upon the battlefields of the Civil War, South- ern women began the memorial work of the war, and societies know as (Con- federate Memorial gocieties sprang up in the different states. Out of these two organizations in St. Louis has come into being the Confederate Monument Asso- ciation, composed of members of the fol- lowing chapters: St. Louis Chapter, U.

Society of Missouri and the Young Ladies’ Auxiliary Society of the U. bed Association Chose Off cers. At a meeting at the Washington Ho- tel several months ago the following officers (all members of the various foregoing societies) were wected: Mrs. W. G. Moore, presideut: Mrs. Rober MeCullrich, first vice-president: Mrs. John C. Roberts, second vice-president: Mrs. Celeste Pim, third rvyice-president: Mrs. J. Munhail King, fourth vice-president; Mrs. Tom S. Gan- non, corresponding secretary: Mrs. Jennie Ed- wards, recording secretary: Mrs. FPtyil Chew, treasurer. Association Chose Officers. Upon the BKReard of Directors, with Mrs. W. (;. Moore. chairman, of which all presidents of the ether societies, with Mrs. Leroar B&B. Valliant. boOnorary president of the Confeder- ate Memorial Soviets of Missour:, are mem- vers ex-officio, the following ladies were ap- pointed from their various organizations: vrom the St. Louis Chapter, U. Me. i Mmes. Robert Funkhouser, W. S. Atkins, W. IL. Kiltne, W. B. Grudbs, C. C. Rainwater: leroy B. Valliant, Firman Desloge. G. P. B. Jackson, Davis Porcher, Miss Louise Dalton and Mra. R. K. Walker; from the M. A. E. MeCiure Ohapter, U. D. C., Mmes. W. N, meer, J. KE. Leith, John Janapoulo, W. P; Hioward, George Tyler; from the Stonewall Jackson Chapter, U. D. C., Mrs. John Mateer, Mrs. Mitchell Hutchinson, Mrs. George Row; from the Young Ladies’, AuxiNary, Misses Isla Sloau, Anna Force, Bettie Donaldson, Roberti MeCniloch, Mattie Lou Maddox. The presidents of these societies thus fe resented are: Mrs. E. T. Campbell, St. Louis (Chapter. U. D. C.: Mrs. R. G. Robert, M. A. B. McClure Oba pter, ’ D.C: Mak. WR. Cocke. C. M. SS. of Missouri, and Mrs. C. W. McFarland, Stonewall Jackson Chapter, U. D. C. Contributions for Home. It will be remembered that the D. O. C. was formed to assist the Confederate veterans in caring for their old sol- diers, and through the D. O. C. the women of the State contributed $38,000 to the home at Higginsville, from the time of its founding until it became an in- stitution of the State. Four thousand dollars afterward went from these Southern organizations in St. Louis to the monument at Springfield, and other contributions to the Davis Monument at Richmond, the Minnie Davis Monu- ment at Richmond and the proposed monument at Arlington. In the restora- tion work of Old Bladford Church, a historic colonial edifice; which was al- most demolished in the 60’s, the C. M. S. of Missouri contributed largely, and much minor work of all the societies is upon record. ‘ith these successes in the past the Confederate Monument Agsociation sees no reason to fear failure in the future. It intends to build a magnificent monu- ment, designed and executed by- great artists, and at ho small cost, a monu- ment to grace the city, to which it is to be given. In the past St. Louis has drawn no party line in siving. the blue and the gray have opened their purses. without regard to buried differences, and these les expect this proposed work of art to be a monument to the liberality of the ap men of the city as much as to their dead heroes. 2 Semper to have large sums of money to handle and much business of importance to transact before the com- pletion of this labor, an advisory boani of men will be formed, which will be composed of some of the leading finan- wiers and philanthropists of St. uls.

Ormonde is not to be classed with partly developed mediums. His Clairvoyant power is a natural-born gift. PAST—PRESENT—FUTURE Clear as crystal. See Ormonde. Gives private instructions in the philosophy of the ancient Hindoo to those that are interested in occult- ism. He teaches the Hindoo methods of con- centration, polarization and focalization, which enables you to cause outward conditions to conform with your inward desires. Tells whom and when to marry, hastens marriage, removes evil influence, restores affections, cures drunkenness, and helps where all others fail. Success guaranteed.

St. George Ormonde was the means in God's hands of saving my life as only by a hair's breadth was I saved Last January, a friend and myself consulted this Hindoo; we were looking for anything ex- cept what he told us; my friend laughed and today he is dead. I am now going to follow Ormonde's advice, which was to come on to St. Louls and remain. I lost everything but my life which I )Aope in the future will be better and brighter. PATRICK McCAFFERTY, 1516 Washington av. St. George Ormonde, 3108 Olive st. St. George Ormonde, 8: 3109 Olive St., warned me of the disaster while working at the Tivoli Theater, San Francisco, last Decem- ber, telling me to change my residence from the Brunswick Hotel, as there would be a terrible earthquake and fire which would kill many. I laughed at the warning, but it preyed so much on my mind that I changed, thereby saving my life, as there were over one hundred killed tn the building. I arrived in St. Louls Thursday evening.

Let me tell you FREE what the future has in store for you, whether the coming years hold out riches that you could grasp if you but knew it, whether marriage and a happy home may be your blessing and whether fame will knock at your door. The stars will tell it all. Let me show you how to take advan- tage of the good fortune that is ready to help you if you knew when and how to act; let me point out the pitfalls and swamps of failure that are in your path and tell you clearly how to avoid them. How can I do this? By the grand old science of Astrology which is acknowledged by all thinking men as the only reliable way to fortell the future. By an Astrological system different from that of any astrologer living or dead. I claim to be able to draw for you a pic- ture or Horoscope of your life past, present and future that will startle and mystify you by its exactness. To prove to you the abso- lute accuracy of my Horoscopes and to show you how thoroughly practical and helpful they are I will send you absolutely FRED, on re- ceipt of a 2c stamp to pay postage, a trial Horoscope or Astrological reading that will be of great value to you. Remember that the that I offer costs you nothing. sealed and all your letters confidential. Read what these people say of my work and they are only a few of the thousands I am constantly receiving.

Chicago, Il. Some three years ago you sent me a reading of my life. At that time I was on the brink of ruin. You advised me to sell out and go into the real estate business, which I did; am now running smoothly on the road to suc- cess. I advise every one that wishes to sue- ceed in life to write you. Hiram Kline.

If you want to make your future successful and know what it contains, write me at once. I will tell you the history of your life from the cradle to the grave, what you can ex- pect as your share of happiness, what failures

This land will now be opened tofa homeseekers. In the United States Marshal's office it is believed there will be little work left for the mar- shals to do in the matter of fence removal. Judge Munger's order makes the victory of Special Assistant District Attorney Rush complete. The cattile- men, convicted in the criminal cases, some of them imprisoned, made no defense in the eviction cases filed last fall and now decided. Two of the decrees were through the United States Court and five through the Circuit Court. The Rev. George G. Ware, president of the U. B. I.

Lieut. Drummond picks up the gold and starts hurriedly after her for the purpose of giv- ing her the money. The cashier, seeing the young Lieutenant pick up the money and start to run, seizes a revolver and starts in pursuit. before the cashier arrives. But the Lieutenant overtakes the young lady He is réturning the money when the cashier comes up, and, suspecting this to have been a ruse to entice him away from the bank so accomplices of Lieut. Drummond and the young lady could rob that institution, forces them, at the point of a revolver to return. Fortunately'the young lady, Miss Dorothy Amhurst, knows the bank manager, who vouches for her and introduces Lieut. Drummond. It develops that Miss Amhurst had just fallen heir to an enormous fortune, although Lieut. Drummond did not at this time suspect that it was more than a small amount. After leaving Lieut. Drum- mond, Miss Amhurst returns to the home of Capt.

Drummond, and he in turn introduces “Jack” Lamont. the “ship’s Blacksmith,” who is really Prince Ivan Lermontoff of Russia. The Prince and Miss Katherine Kempt enjoy the dance and the Lieutenant and Miss Amhurst sit out the evening. Lieut. Drummond has told Miss Amhurst that he is the English officer who stirred up so much trouble between England and Russia by firing a test shot at what he thought was a rock in the Baltic Sea, but which, in fact, proved to be a hidden Russian fort. He had been courtmartialed, and, although cleared, is not in good standing with his superior officers, who consider that he made a serious error. is going to Russia with “Jack” Lamont, whois a Socialist, when their leave expires, He explains to Miss Amhurst that he and that, while living in a quiet retreat there, he will attempt to get in communication with cer- tain high Russian officials and convince them that the Baltic incident really was, as it had officially been indicated, nothing more than an accident. Just here a brother officer ap- _ proaches and conveys a message from the Captain of the “Consternation.” Lieut. Drummond opens it and finds he is ordered to England immediately without waiting for his ship to sail. The first installment closes with the breaking up of the party at the ball and the promise of Miss Amhurst to Lieut. Drummond that he may write to her. (Copyright, 1906, by Robert Barr.—All Rights Reserved.) re Chapter V. cn “AFTER THE:OPERA IS OVER.” N_ mid-afternoon of the day fol- lowing ihe en- tertainment on board the ‘“Con- sternation” our two girls were seated opposite one another under the raft- ers of the sew- ing room, in the listless, desul- tory manner of those who have not gone home till morning, The dominant note till daylight did appear. | ee of a summer cottage is the rocking chair, and there were two in the sewing room, where _ Katherine and Dorothy swayed gently back and forth as they talked. They sat close to the low, broad window which presented so beautiful a picture of the blue bay and the white shipping. The huge “Consternation” lay moored with her broadside toward the town, all sign of festivity already removed from hull and rigging, and, to the scarcely - slumber-satisfied eyes of the girls, something of the sadness of departure seemed ‘to hang a _ 4§ a haze around the great ship. The girls re not discussing the past, but rather an- ticipating the future ; forecasting it, with long, silent pauses intervening. . “So you will not stay with-us? You are determined to turn your wealthy back on the poor Kempt family?” Katherine was sav- ing. “But I shall return to the Kempt family now and then, if they will let me: I must get away for a time and think. My life has sud- denly become all topsy-turvy, and I need to get my bearings, as does a ship that has been through a storm and lost her reckoning.” ' “She dunno where she are,’ as the song says.” “Exactly ; that is the state of things.” “I think it’s too bad, Dorothy, that you did not allow us to make public announce- ment of your good fortune. Just imagine what an ovation you would have had on board the cruiser last night if it had been known that the richest woman in that assemblage was a pretty, shy little creature sitting all by herself, and never indulging in even one dance.” “I shouldn’t in the least care for that sort of ovation, Kate, and if everyone present were aS well pleased with the festivities as I, they must all have enjoyed themselves im- mensely. I believe my friend Kate did my , share of the dancing as well as her own. “‘She danced, and she danced, and she dance them a’ din.’ I think those are the words of the Scottish song that the Prince quoted. He seems up in Scottish poetry, and does not even resent being called a Scotch- man. This energetic person of the 'song seems to have danced them all to a standstill, as T ah. “>. understood him, for he informs me ‘a’ means ‘all? and ‘din’ means ‘done,’ but I told him I’d rather learn Russian than Scotch; it was so much easier, and his highness was good enough to laugh at that. Didn’t the Lieu- tenant ask you to dance at all?” “Oh, yes, he did.” “And you refused ?” “IT refused.” “T didn’t think he had sense enough to ask a girl to dance.” “You are ungrateful, Katherine. ber he introduced you to the Prince.” “Yes, that’s so. I had forgotten. I shall never say anything against him again.” “You like the Prince, then?” “Of all the crowned heads, emperors, kings, sultans, monarchs of every descrip- tion, dukes, counts, earls, marquises, whom | have met, and who have pestered my life asking me to share their royal perquisites, | think I may say quite truthfully that I like this Jack Lamont better than any one of them.” “Surely Prince Jack has not offered you his principality already ?” “No, not yet; but with an eye to the future I have persuaded him to give up Tolstoi and read Mark Twain, who is not only equally humorous, but much more sensible than the Russian writer. Jack must not be allowed to give away his estates to the peasants ‘as his silly sister has done. I may need them later on.” “Oh, you’ve got that far, have you?” “T have got that far; he hasn’t. He doesn't know anything about it, but I'll wake him up when the right time comes. There are many elements of sanity about him. He told me that he intended to give up his estates, but in the first place he had been too busy. and in the second he needed the money. His good sense, however, requires refining, so that he may get rid of all the dross. I don’t blame him; I blame Tolstoi. For instance, when I asked him if he had patented his liquid city invention, he said he did not wish to make a profit from his discovery, but in- tended it for the good of humanity at large. Imagine such an idiotic idea as that!” “T think such views are entirely to his credit,” affirmed Dorothy. “Oh, of course, but the plan is not practica- ble. If he allows such an invention to slip through his fingers, the Standard Oil people will likely get hold of it, form a monopoly, and then where would humanity at large be? I tell him the right way is to patent it, make all the money he can, and use the cash for benefiting humanity, under the direction of some charitable person like myself.” “Did you suggest that to him?” “IT did not intimate who the sensible per- son was, but I elucidated the principle of the thing.” “Yes, and what did he say?” “Many things, Dorothy, many things. At one time he became confidential about his possessions in foreign lands. It seems he owns several castles, and when he visits any of them he cannot prevent the moujiks, if that is the proper term for the peasantry over there, from prostrating themselves on the ground as he passes by, beating their fore- heads against the earth, and chanting, in choice Russian, the phrase: ‘Defer, defer, here. comes the Lord High Executioner,’ or words to that effect. [I told him I didn’t see why. he should interfere with so picturesque a custom, and he said if I visited one of his castles that these estimable people, at a word from him, would form a corduroy road in the mud with their bodies, so that I might step dry-shod from the carriage to the castle doors, and I stipulated that he should at least spread a bit of stair carpet over the poor wretches before I made my progress across his front yard,” “Well, you did become confidential if you discussed a visit to Russia.” “Yes, didn’t we?

Now, you have scorned my side of the river, and I have objected to your side of the river. That is the bad beginning which, let us hope, makes the good ending. Who is to arbitrate on our dispute?” “Why, we'll split the difference, of course.” “How can we do that? Live in a houseboat on the river, like Frank Stockton’s ‘Rudder Grange’?” “No, settle in the city of New York, which is prac- tically an island in the Hudson.” “Would you like to live in New: York?” “Wouldn't I! Imagine anyone, having the chance, living anywhere else!” “In a hotel, I suppose—the Holidorf, for choice.” “Yes, we could live in a hotel until we found the ideal flat, high up in a nice apartment house, with a view like that from the top of Mount Washington, or from the top of the Washington Monument.” “But you forget 1 made one proviso in the be- ginning, and that is that I am going. to build a church, and the church is to be situated, not in the city of New York, but in the village of Haverstock.” “New York is just the place from whieh to con- struct such an edifice. Haverstock will be somewhere near the West Shore Railway. Very well. We can take a trip up there once a week or oftener, if you like, and see how the work is prokwessing, then the people of Haverstock will respect us. As we drive from the station they'll say: “*There’s the two young ladies from New York who are building the church.’ But if we cettle down amongst them they'll think we're only ordinary vil- lagers instead of the distinguished persons we are.

They had gone direct to New York, and it required tne seven days to find a flat that suited them, of which they were to take possession on the first of October. Then there were the lawyers to see; a great many busi- ness details ta settle, and an architect to consult. After leaving New York the girls spent a day at Haverstock, where Dorothy Amhurst bought a piece of land as shrewdly as if she had been in the real estate business all her life. After this transaction the girls drove to the station on the line connecting with the inclined railway, and so, as Katherine re-aelub, of which T have heen 9 member for some yent marked, were “wafted to the skies on flowery beds of ease,” which she explained to her shocked com- panion was all right, because it was a quotation from a hymn. When at Iast they reached their hotel, Katherine was in eestasies. “Ien’t this heavenly?” she eried, “and, indeed, it ought to be, for I understand we are 3000 feet high- er than we were in New York, and even the sky- scrapers can’t compete with such an altitude.” The broad valley of the Hudson lay spread beneath them, stretching as far as the eye could see, shim- ring i » thin, bluish veil of a s ; mering in the th ummer evening, and miles away the river itself could be traced like a silver ribbon. The gallant Captain, who had been energetically browbeaten by his younger daughter, and threatened with divers pains and penalties should he fail to pay attention and take heed to instructions, had aequit- ted himself with eclat in the seleetion of rooms for Dorothy and his daughter. The suite was situated in one corner of the huge caravansary, a large parlor occupying the angle, with windows on one side loak- ing into the forest, and on the other giving an ex- tended view into the valley. The front room ad- joining the parlor was to be Dorothy’s very own, and the end room belonged to Katherine, he said, as long as she behaved herself. If Dorothy ever wished to evict her strenuous neighbor, all she had to do was to efll upon the Captdin, and he would lend his aid, at which er * of assistance Katherine tossed b ney during an afternoon in the middle of the 4 and, as a consequenee, arrive jate at his morning, Dorothy Sean Med wonder if formation, associated with the name of Prince Iva Lermontoff of Russia, was strong enough to an energetic assault of this nature, supposing it w to bé constantly repeated.

He is Admiral Sir John Pender. gest, popularly known in the service as ‘Old Grouch,’ a blue terror who knows absolutely nothing of mercy. The lads in the service say he looks so disagreeable because he is sorry he wasn’t born a hanging judge. Pietwe a face as cleanty cut as that of some severe old Roman Senator;.a face as hard as marble, .quite as cold, and nearly as white, rescued from the appearance of a death mask by a pair of piercing eyes that glitter like steel.

Indeed, Admiral Sir John Prendergest seems to have aprung, fully uniformed and forbidding, from the earth, like those soldiers of mythology.

And out of this cudgeling of wits has come the scheme to attach a free bride's coupon to the settler’s railway ticket. The Canadian Pacifie is credited with the invention.

The scheme is best explained by a supposititious case; John Brown, a worthy young man with no heart for the city and a huge love for the pleasant fields, goes down in the Southwest and secures a small farm.

Those solemn utterances of yours point directly toward Hugh Miller’s ‘Old Red Sandstone’ and works of that sort, and now I remember your singing ‘When Johnny comes marching home.’ I therefore take it that Jack Lamont has arrived.” “He has not.” “Then he has written to you?” “He has not.” “Oh, well, I give it up.

For answer Katherine withdrew her hands from behind her, and offered to her friend a sheet of paper she had been holding.

She murmured, rather than He asked If he might “A pair of lovesick maidens we. “One, if you please,” interrupted Dorothy. “‘Lovesick all against our will’ ”—— “"Twenty years hence we shan’t be A pair of lovesick maidens still.’ ” “I am pleased to note,” said Dorothy “that the letter written by the Prince to your fath- er has brought you back to the Gilbert and Sulli- van plane again, although in this fairy glen should quote from ‘Iolanthe’ rather than from ‘Pa- “Yes, Dot, this spot might do for a cove in the ‘Pirates of Penzance,’ only we’re too far from the sea.

Dorothy was an ‘er, and one morning. entering the parlor “oom she saw. lying upon the table, a let- Russian stamp, but addressed in an un- «her friend Katherine Kempt. She .% SUNDAY Post DISPATCH surmised that here was the first communication from the Prince, and expected to learn all about it during the luncheon hour at the latest. But the morning and afternoon passed, and Katherine made no sign, which Dorothy thought was most unusual. All that day and the next Katherine went about silent, sedate and serious, never once quoting the humorous Mr. Gilbert. On the third morning Doro- thy was surprised, emerging from her room, to see Katherine standing by the table, a black book in her hand. On the table lay a large package from New York, recently opened, displaying a number of volumes in what might be termed serious binding, leather or cloth, but none showing that high color- ing which distinguishes the output of American fiction. “Good morning, Dorothy. The early bird is after the worm of science.” She held forth the volume in her hand. “Steele’s ‘Fourteen-Weeks’ Course in Chemistry,’ an old book, but fascinatingly written. Dorothy,” she continued with a sigh, “I wanted to talk seriously with you.” “About chemistry?” asked Dorothy. “About men,” said Katherine firmly, “and, inci- dentally, about women.” “An interesting subject, Kate, but you’ve got the wrong text-books. You should have had a parcel of novels instead.” Dorothy seated herself, and Katherine followed her example, Steele’s “Fourteen-Weeks’ Course” rest- _ ing in her lap. “Every man,” began Katherine, guardian to protect him.” “From women?” “From all things that are deceptive, and not what they seem.” “That sounds very sententious. Kate. it mean?” “Tt means that man is a simpleton. easily taken “should have a What does

He is too honest for crafty women, who delude him shamelessly.” “Whom have you been deluding, Kate?” “Dorothy, Iam a sneak.” Dorothy laughed. “Indeed, Katherine, you are anything but that. You couldn’t do a mean or ungenerous action if you tried your best.” “You think, Dorothy, I could reform?” she asked, breathlessly, leaning forward. “Reform? You don’t need to reform. You are perfectly delightful as you are, and I know no man who is worthy of you. That’s a woman’s opinion; one who knows you well, and there is nothing dis- honest about the opinion, either, in spite of your tirade against our sex.” “Dorothy, three days ago, be the same more or less, | received a letter from John Lamont.” “Yes, I saw it on the table, and surmised it was from him.’’ “Did you? You were quite right. The reading of that letter has revolutionized my character. I am a changed woman, Dorothy, and thoroughly ashamed of myself. When I remember how I have deluded that poor, credulous young man, in making him be- lieve I understood even the fringe of what he spoke about, it fills me with grief at my perfidy, but I am determined to amend my ways if hard study will do it, and when next I see him I shall talk to him worthily, like a female Thomas A. Edison.” Again Dorothy laughed. “Now that’s heartless of you, Dorothy. Don’t you see I’m in deadly earnest? Must my former frivolity dog my steps through life? When I call to mind that I made fun to you of his serious pur- pose in life, the thought makes me eringe and de- spise myself.” “Nonsense, Kate, don’t go to the other extreme. | remember nothing you have said that needs with- Ae ey nS ett sagt lias are % he * a ale A . ta Ba »% . . € drawal.

That is a perfectly laudable ambi- tion, and I am quite sure you will succeed.” “T know I don’t deserve all that, Dorothy, but I like it just the same. I like people to believe in me, even if I sometimes lose faith in myself. May I read you an extract from his letter ?” “Don’t if you’d rather not.” A NEW ¢RMANS long for a foothold in Brazil, and they are marching to a realization of their hopes with a patient confidence born of well 0 nee soon Germans, emigrants and their off- spring, are resident in Brazil. In the south, where they are thickest, they have become the ruling ele- ment. German factories, warehouses, shops, farms, schools and churches dot the country everywhere. German has superseded Portuguese, the official lan- guage of Brazil, in scores of communities. Twenty million pounds of vested interests claim the protection of the Kaiser’s flag. A cross-country railway and a stil] more extensive projected system are in the hands of German capitalists.

“I'd rather, Devetlly, if it doesn’t weary you, but you will understand when you have heard it, in what a new light I regard myself.” The letter proved to be within the leaves of the late Mr. Steele’s book on chemistry, and from this volume she extracted it, pressed it for a moment against her breast with her open hand, gazing across at her friend. 7 ‘Dorothy, my first love letter!” She turned the crisp, thin pages, and began: “You may recollect that footnote which you marked with red ink in the book you so kindly gave me on the subject of Catalysis, which did not pertain to the subject of the volume in question, and yet was s0 illuminative to any student of chem- istry. They have done a great deal with Catalysis in Germany, with. amazing commercial results, but the subject is one so recent that I had not pre- viously gone thoroughly into it.’” Katherine paused in the reading, and looked across at her auditor, an expression almost of despair in her eloquent eyes. “Dorothy, what under heaven is Catalysis?” “Don’t ask me,” replied Dorothy, suppressing a laugh, struck by the. ludicrousness of any young and Fiction LIBRARY SECTION, Mavis 1900.

You, I am sure, with your more alert mind, saw this when you marked that passage in red.’ O, Dorothy, almost whimpered Katherine, leaning back, “how can I go on? Don’t you see what a sneak I am? It was bad enough to cozen with my heedless, random mark- ings of the book, but to think that line of red might have been marked in his blood, for I nearly sent the poor boy to his death.” “Go on, Katherine, go on, go on!” “In my search for a Catalytic whose substance would remain unchanged after the reaction, I quite overlooked the chemical ingredients of one of the materials I was dealing with, and the result was an explosion which nearly blew the roof off the shop, and quite startled poor Drummond out of a year’s growth.

EVENTEEN ‘THOUSAND Sioux Indians, de- scendants of the savages who attacked St. Louis on May 26, 1780, and who harried the Upper Mississippi Valley a century ago, have been converted to Christianity. Half of all the Sioux to be found in the United States are now devout mem- bers of various churches, whereas once the entire tribe participated in the war dance, tortured their white captives and fought usa with other tribes. Should Auguste Chouteau or Pierre Laclede return to the flesh and find that of 35,000 Sioux remaining, 7400 are devout members of the Catholic Church, 6200 attend the services of the Church of England, 1983 are Presbyterians, 1022 are Congregationalists and several hundred more worship with various denom- inations, ha would be firmly convinced that won- ders never cease. To think of the descendante of the red men who had to be literally pushed back from the banks of the Mississippi that the white men might get a foothold, who were instigated by the British to _ low Members of Once Bloodthirsty Tribe | Are Becoming Converted—“Perfect Re- ligious Mania Sweeping Reservations’ — Picturesque Squaws at Weekly Prayer Meetings—Sioux Exceptionally Devout. harry the little settlement of St. Louis in “l’annee du grande coup,” who assisted the British in the war against the colonists in 1812, and who wiped vut a half dozen white settlements in Iowa in 1857 and murdered 2000 men, women and children in Min- nesota in 1862, spending their days dropping upon prayer stools and reciting the Lord’s Prayer would be the marvel of the age to those doughty white men wha wrested the wilderness from the savages a cen- tury and a half ago. Not only have one-half of all the Sioux Indians in existence been converted, but a regular religious mania has overswept them. The Indians have been gathered together on the Government reservation, where white missionaries and .red converts have lately gone about preaching the Gospel. The Indian learns quickly; he makes an enthusiastic convert. Not satisfied with joining the church and attend- ing services regularly, the Sioux of today, being a born debater, has organized religious clubs and so- cieties, with regular weekly or even nightly meet- ings, at which such subjects as these are argued with much vim and gusto: “How may our Sabbath schools be improved?”

Nor are these debates mere mockeries. dians enter into them with all their heart. writer declares that “in arguing questions of im- portance to the church, chiefs in past years distin- guished in battle rise with dignity and deliver im- passioned orations.” Yet the chiefs may have, and some doubtless did, themselves participate in the massacre of settlements at Spirit Lake, Okoboji and Springfield, Io., in March, 1857, and in the uprising of the tribe in 1862, when 2000 unarmed men, women and children in Minne- sota were massacred, the deeds never having been surpassed in atrocity by savages in any period of the world’s history. The Sioux were the most war- like and treacherous of all the tribes which at any “Is the custom of making presents to the dead a The In- A recent

time harried Missouri and the other states of the Upper Mississippi Valley. “A perfect religious mania has swept over the Sioux Indians on their reservations,” asserts a trav- eler who recently returned, after having witnessed several of the meetings at which the subjects al- ready set out were vigorously debated. “It is a picturesque sight to see these men and women sitting at prayer meeting, the chiefs getting as excited in argument as they ever did in battle. Indeed, the religious fervor has done away with the spirit of repression that used to characterize the Indian. He no longer grunts in monosylliables, when religion is the subject, at least. He talks and argues long and eloquently. “Some old battle-scarred chief will arise and a hush will fall upon the assemblage. He will be- gin to talk slowly, calmly, his guttural tones lend- ing themselves admirably to religious discussions. In a few minutes he has worked himself into a fit of

eloquence and even before he has finished some op- ponent will have leaped to his feet and will be shak- ing his fists and arguing just as vehemently that the other way of thinking is the right way. “With all their enthusiasm, however, there is never any serious trouble at these meetings and but little backsliding. The Indian is carried away by the eloquence of his chiefs and orators, but once he has quieted down he never goes back to the old way of holding out against the ‘feeling of religion.’ Most of them are sincere, some few are ashamed to back- slide, for the red men cannot stand ridicule, and only a very small percentage wander again from the straight and narrow path. “Of course the Indians drink, the white man taught them that; and they smoke and gamble and some- times cut high jinks. But they are very particular to pay close attention to the rules of whatever church they belong to. ° “Both white men and red preach among them. Each convert made results in another before long, and it is not beyond reason that before many years have passed every Sioux Indian in America will be a Christian.” In the face of scoffers from other tribes, it often takes considerable courage for a Sioux brave to stand erect and announce that the spirit moves him to put aside the old way. But it is really the same kind of courage that made a certain Sioux brotherhood fa- mous -in this seetion of the country for many years a half century or more ago.

Indeed, the Sioux roamed Missouri and Towa at will until they were driven across the Missour| River by the Sacs and Foxes, with whom ‘they had battled for many years. The last great battle between the rival tribes occurred in 1852, the Sioux going down in defeat. They secured their revenge on the white men, however, and well nigh exterminated the early set-— tlers of Northern Iowa before the Government cor- ralled them on reservations, there the only excite- ment to be the religious revivals which have now worked such wonders among them.

CTING out his crime in a dream before the A horrified gaze of his wife, Charles Rocker was convicted of the murder of his employer and sentenced to die. For two years he has re- mained in prison, the date of his execution being fre- quently changed, so indifferent to his fate that he not only refused to see the attorney who was fight- ing to secure him a new trial, but even refused to sign his name to a petition for a rehearing. Now the Supreme Court of Iowa has opened the Penitentiary doors to Rocker, finding that he was illegally convicted. From crouching in the shadow of the gallows to _ being a free man, Rocker has passed from one ex- ‘treme to the other, indifferently, uncaring for the future. His case has no annals in American crim- indlogy, outside of fiction and the drama. He was convicted on testimony such as the play- wright used in writing “The Bells,” which Sir Henry Irving has several times presented in St. Louis the- aters.

Here is the story in brief: On the night of June 30, 1900, the body of August Schroeder was found hanging in his house near Doon. Lyon County, Io. Schroeder’s wife and the hired man, Charles Rocker, were immediately suspected of having committed the deed. Public sentiment was strong against the two. But the only evidence against them was suspicion. Days, and nothing was done. Then one day the widow and her lover drove into town, secured a marriage license and were wedded. I am his mur- weeks passed Nothing more was needed to confirm suspicion. There was still notning but circumstantial evidence, but the people demanded the arrest of the pair. The nuptial night was spent in Jail instead of in the old home where Schroeder had once presided, as man to the deed, and he So they were released, and finding the neighborhood unpleasant, removed to South Dakota. Two years passed, the Schroeder murder atill re- maining a mystery, without an additional clew be- ing discovered. Then, one day, came a letter from the widow of August Schroeder and the wife of Charles Rocker, telling the story of the crime. She had had no hand in her first husband’s undo- ing; Rocker alone had committed the deed, she said, and for two years of married life she had not learned it. But the truth came out one night in a dream. Rocker arose in bed, beside the form of the wire who had awakened but a few minutes before, and not only acted out the killing of Schroeder in detail, but repeated the very words which both had spoken as slayed and slayer struggled together in the death fight.

Rocker threatened her with violence and believed he had put the thought out of her mind.

But Rock- er had let revenge actuate him after he had been released once before from Jail, and that emotion was his undoing. When Mrs. Schroeder and Rocker had been turned loose, without evidence to convict, Rocker had at once secured an attorney, Simon Fisher, empowering him to bring suit against the men who had filed the information, claiming heavy damages for false ar- rest and imprisonment. Fisher was told certain facts in the murder and aver As attorney, case, and while Rocker never pressed his damage cases to trial, Fisher was in possession of informa- tion which dovetailed with the story told by the widow and wife.

The professional smuggler has long since ceased to trouble the Federal officers seriously. The odds against him are so great that he has turned his in- genuity to some safer method of dishonesty. The last, the smuggler for fun, is a bother. Usu- ally the duty he is attempting to save is hardiv enough to pay for the trouble of detection. What people smuggle covers everything that can be hidden. Costly gems and jewels form the greater part of the dutiable property seized by the customs officers. The few professional smugglers confine themselves © diamonds. The smuggler for fun is as apt to try fo get in a pair of gloves, a bit of lace, drugs or ex- pensive cosmetics. Lace, silk and bits of .bric-a-brac find their way into out-of-the-way places in the travelers who avoid of the occasional to trunks or grips think it perfectly the duty. To detect the amateur smugglers requires detective work on the part of the local customs officers. An especially quiet looking man who ar- rived a few months ago had concealed a beautiful diamond in the heart of a lump of tobacco. The cus- toms officer, who had put this passenger down as one of the honest travelers, had his suspicion aroused wher he saw him make a frantic grab for a half plug of tobacco that he had accidentally dropped.

Every Chinaman sworn in the courts of justice in New York City today takes the oath not upon the Bible, but upon the head of a live chicken which is cut off in his presence. ; There have been only two great Chinatowns in the big cities of the Caucasian world. These were the Chinatown of New York, where 60.000 Celestials live, and the Chinatown of San Francisco, with a smaller number. They were the two sights which most excited the interest of foreign visitors to those cities. The interesting thing about Chinatown in San Francisco was its genuine character as an Ori- ental settlement living of, for and by itself, as truly Eastern as any comniMnity in a remote part of China. Many of its inhabitants never went out of the precincts of Chinatown from one end of the year to another. While a great number of the Chinese shops there were run by the Six Companies and other Chinese plutocrats for the purpose of selling to Americans, the bulk of the shops in Chinatown were intended only for Chinese customers, never catered to Ameri- can custom, and dealt only in things which the Chi- nese would buy. For instance, in a Chinese grocery store you would see the strangest assortment of word of a Chinaman under oath is absolutely worth- sharks’ fins, birds’ nests, oiled ducks, antique eggs less except under one condition. That was that and dried cuttlefish, all Chinese delicacies. The Chi- ead of a live chicken im the nese butcher shops had a woe and fantastic meats; wns

with their maehine under perfect ceutrol. A frac- tion over 25 miles is the greatest distance they have covered at any ene time. They have, however, been able to fly in a straight line or a circle as they chose, and to regulate their machine with a mar- velous degree of certainty. Their flights have been made at a height slightly above the treetops and they have been able not only to rise and continue in the air at their pleasure, but to alight when they willed and at a given point. Particular interest attaches in St. Louis to this remarkable suceess because of the attention the Wright brothers attracted here during the World’s Fair. Always mysterious and secretive concerning their plans and experiments, their attitude was most strikingly brought eut when they failed to attend the Congress of Aeronauts at the Louisiana Purchase Ex- position. In faet, until the present time they have never been indueed to talk of their affairs in any way. They have refused information to all inquirers, and neither apparent success nor probable failure Lngine Flying

perimenting with a gliding machine. They have been successful in these experiments, but for the last three years they have been laboring to accomplish a mechanical flight by means of a motor-driven ma- thine. During these three years they have made 160 flights averaging a mile each. For a long time, how- ever, these flights were unsatisfactory, except that they kept up the faith of the experimenters in ulti- mate success. The first flight made by the motor-driven machine lasted only 59 seconds. True, it was successful in ® sense, for it carried the machine 852 feet against & 20-mile-an-hour wind. But some idea of the exhaustive search after success that these men have made may be had from a comparison of this flight and finally the successful one in October, 1905, when the machine attrined a d'stance of more than twenty- four miles. Previous to this time, and since the first 59-second flight, which had been made in Decem- ber, 1903, there had been 105 flights and the last- mentioned one of 24 miles was further than all the others put together. , In December, 1904, it is now stated by the Wright brothers, they first succeeded in flying their machine at will in a circle. This was accomplished after much painstaking investigation as to the nature of little defects that would become apparent after each flight. These were worked out patiently, no possible cause or effect being too smal] to be overlooked. It should be remembered, in order to grasp the full human interest element, as well as the scientific im- portance of this great new accomplishment, that

Coincident with their announced success eomes the statement that the new flying machine has been sold to the War Department of the French Government. This,.then, seems to explain their refusal to dis- cuss their plans or theories. They have had a dis- tinct object in view, and the contribution to the world’s knowledge that would have followed an ex- planation of their successes and failures has not weighed against their design to ultimately profit by disposing of their completed maciiine to a foreign power.

3 ‘ French, Model Housewives ARIM fo the must esomenietl city in the wort.

In America you pay for what you eat and what i« going to be thrown out through , careless. ness or sheer wastefulness, In the recesses of the sumptuous American icebox xvod food is hidden away and forgotten until it ha- to be thrown out. There are no recesses in the French icebox, because. there is seldom any icebox. Your French housewife orders ice, a few pennies’ worth at a time, when she needs it only. She never buys anything in advance and has only what she needs for one day (excepting staple groceries), so her cupboard at night is as bare as Ok] Mother Hubbard's. 3 There is no chance for any waste at all. What- ever greens, vegetables, bits of meat and poultry are left over from the table go into the French soup, the best and most nourishing soup in the world. Left over fruit is stewed or preserved. Left over bread is all roasted or saved for the inevitable cheese soup on Friday. Everything is utilized—there is no waste. The French housewife is called a manager—she is, and a very skillful one. Shiftlessness to her is culp- able, and the sin of wasting bread is not merely an old adage, but an every-day reality. Her daughters are brought up in this belief, with the result that French wives of the middle class more nearly achieve the ideal of helpmeets to their husbands than any other class of women. They not only superintend and direct the manage- ment of their own households and homes, but they are often actively interested in their husband’s busi- ness and share in its profits, thus obtaining for themselves financial independence. This seems to be a pretty good solution of the matrimonial versus the personal independence prob- lem. It is founded like all other compacts—on mu- tual trust—the husband trusting the wife with im- terest in his department, because she has demon- strated that she can take care of her own part the domestic economy. She knows what is bought for her house, even though she does not buy it herself; she supervise« what is used and she caleulates without much effort what is wasted, and sees at once that the waste i« stopped. And this is so, whether she has three or four servants or none at all. Having kept the house- hold aceounts in one of these families, | whereof I speak.

A indreamed of a few years ago. But there are atill regions that have not con- tributed their native plants, although they are now coming into the Department of Agriculture at the rate of a dozen varieties a day. They are coming by mail, express and freight, ranging in quant ties from a few seeds of a rare variety to a whole ton of some African or Arabian grain. This work has re- quired the employment of exceptional men,. whose enthnsiasm for discovery would take them into dangerous places and whose training had fitted thei to tell at a glance whether a new plant was possible of utilization in this country. They were not seek- ing strange and rare things, but plants that would produce a profitable crop in this country. The almost unlimited plant resources of the Chi- nese Kingdom are being probed by a trained agricul- tural explorer, Frank N. Mver. Hosts of things are coming in from his explorations, Hardier per-im- mons and peaches from the original home of the peach, interesting new grapes, luscious Chinese pears and hardy bamboos are on the long list of things al- America. The durum wheat, from which the bread of the common | eople is made in Southern Europe and Rus- ready en route to time one or more plants to our edible list. “iil now, in the United States, and especially ir the Southwest, where the varieties of climate anil soil parallel those of nearly every other countr”, foodstuffs are produced in varieties and quantities

sia, was almost an unknown thing on our grain mat- kets until 1900; but today it is a living question in the milling centers of the Northwest. It is a’ wheat ior the dry lands, where the ordinary kinds grow poorly or not at all, and it yields so much more per acre and is so much surer a crop that, even if it should not bring the highest prices, it will pay bet- ter than the less drouth-resistant species which Western farmers have hitherto tried to grow on the dry farm lands of the Dakotas and Nebraska. Custom still fights the innovation of a new flour, and there are people who think our bread is in dan- .r of being deteriorated by the new introduction; but they are not the well informed who have tasted the full-flavored durum wheat breads of Spain or Italy or who realize the great and growing future of macaroni as a food in this country. Of the Corsican citron, though no one persen in the country eats any large amount, yet everyone eats a little, and the aggregate amounts to more than 2,000,- 000 pounds a year, which is imported from ‘taly and Corsica. Cuttings from this plant have now been introduced into Southern California and they are and are now being raised at a profit are almost toc numerous to mention. Among the best-known may be mentioned the Smyrna fig, which was introduced on a large seale in this country in 1880, and after many experiments, is now being cultivated at a profit; Japanese rice, now being raised in great quantities in Louisiana and Texas; udo, a new Japa- nese salad plant, while not so palatable as the let. tuce, gives a pleasant variety and in many sections of the country is raised with profit; the tropical mango, much more richly flavored than the peach, the trees of which grow on a poor soil and live tc an extreme old age. This plant was first introduced into Florida in 1889; only one tree survived the “freeze” of 1895, and from this thousands of graft- ed trees are now flourishing in Florida and the rais- ing of mangoes has reached almost a craze. Spanish hard shelled almonds, whose home is in the Sierras of Southeastern Spain, are now raised in large quan- tities in California, although the finer and harder kerneled varieties are not yet grown in this coun- try to any great extent. ! The greatest annual irrigated forage crop for cul- ture in regions with mild winters is the berseem of the Nile Valley. It is the crop that the Egyptian fellah, or peasant, has depended upon for centuries as a soil improver anc as a plant on which to pasture hig cattle. Planted in the late autumn, it grows so rapidly that before the next June it will yield four cuttings of a most. nutritious fodder, fed green or

a made into hay. No other plant known should be 80 well suited to grow in the newly, opened up, ir- rigated regions of Arizona and California. Berseem will not come into competition with alfalfa, for it is an annual, while alfalfa is a perennial, and therefore not suited to grow in rotation with crops like cot- ton, melons, or other annuals. The trials so far made with berseem are encouraging. The transfer of the date from the deserts of the old world to those of the new is one of the greatest recent accomplishments in the transplanting of food plants. These plants were first introduced on a small scale in Arizona and California in 1889, but now there are more than 170 varieties, and withth a few years the deserts of the West will be filled with these

( tately plants. The prickty pea, or tuna, is a fruit thaf all those who have teen in Mexico or Italy or who have vis- ited Southern Spain have seen and perhaps tasted, Few, probably, have thought that this fruit wae she product of a cactus that would grow tn the dry deserts where scarcely anything else will live, and produce fruit on which men can live. It furnishes a fo’cer for cattle, too, that, though not of the is at least good enough to make it worth while to cultivate it in the old world, and in the new it has been utilized by burning off the sharp spines. These are now being grown in special gardens in California, where there is the largest and moat varied collection in the world. Among the recent importations into the Southwest is the beautiful carrubo, the carob, or St. John’s Bread of the English. This is intended as feed for cattle and horses. Attempts are now being made to introduce here the magusteen from China, de- clared to be the most delicious fruit in the world. It is a sort of large plum, impossible to preserve and regarded for years by experts as a fruit without a peer. The famous Malin variety of horseradish is being introduced by the Government. Another new plant is the chayote, a eucumber-like vegetable that grows on a vine. It is a perennial, bears as many as 500 fruit to one vine and goes on for years pro- ducing larger and larger crops. This is being intro-- duced from the West Indies. Although this fruit has been known for years among the Creoles of New Orleans, it has only been recently introduced to the guests of the Waldorf-Astoria in New York. Some of the problems which the Department is now working on are the finding of paying crops for the abandoned rice farms of the Carolinas; the se- curing of some profitable plant culture for the un- employed hilly regions of North Carolina and Geor- gia; the improvement of the brewing barleys of the country; the fitting in of new crops into the arctic agriculture of Alaska; the starting of new industries in our tropical possessions; the increasing of the fertility of the California orchard soils; the intro- OU THWE

Man Who Performed Extraordinary Feats as Government Scout Comes on Evil Days—His Career With Custer—Remarkable Feat of Rescu- ing Two Girls From Indians—A T the age of 59, a Missouri scout, whose career A was closely associated with that of “Buffalo Bill” on the Western plains a quarter of 1 eentury ago, and who was one of the band of scouts "who quit St. Louis to reinforce Gen. Custer’s troops, being the first white persons to arrive at the scene of the massacre of: the Little Big Horn and to bury “Yellow Hair” and his martyred command, now lies in jail in a nearby state, the good record of almost a half-century of hard, honest work likely to be for gotten and stern justice meted out because of one little, long-delayed, faltering step from the straight and narrow way. Charles L. Stewart, who votes at Kansas City whenever he votes, but who is really of Everywhere -—the eastern boundary line always being the Mis- sissippi River, however—is in durance vile in Coun- cil Bluffs, charged with forging a check for $20, though he has earried thousands of dollars to pay Dime Novel Hero in Real Life. off the regular army soldiers and guarded treasure trains across the plains and had fortunes within his reach a score of times. Stewart's career is so picturesque ‘hat it shame to have to write a sequel dnd set the scene behind prison bars, but Fate is cruel at times and the best of me _ will slip down now and then. If it had not be--; faat he was hard up, far from home and. unknown, Stewart would have spent his last days in the peace he deserves instead of dying in the penitentiary, as now seems likely to be his fate. He was born in Missouri in the late ’40s, too late to hit the trail for the California gold fields, but early enough to participate in the stamping out of the red men on the great plains. At 22 Stewart left his Missouri home, going to Fort Leavenworth, where he entered Government employ as a scout. His first service was at Fort Lyons, Colo. In 1872 he was transferred to Camp Supply, 1. T., a noted is a station in those days. scouts, and Stewart his first assistant. Then came the command to join a party of seouts, travel by way of St. Louis and reinforce Gen. Cus- ter, who was ranging the Western plains in search of Sitting Bull and the other bad Indians not yet in captivity. ‘Stewart left Camp Supply and came to St. Louis by rail. He remained here a few days— this was in the early summer of 1876—equipping for the long and hard campaign he knew to be before him, and finally started up the Missouri River to Yankton, where a steamer met the party of scouts —12 in number—and conveyed them up the Rosebnd River to a landing in the Cheyenne country. There to their horror the scouts learned that the soldiers they were to reinforce and guide to the Indians’ lair had been massacred, every one of them, two days before. Stewart was put in command of the scouts, ordered to co-operate with the soldiers and rushed across country to the scene of the mas- sacre. Together with his scouts and the soldiers they were the first to reach the seene. “Yellow Hair” and his 300 men lay dead on the plain. Not a man

For two years he rode by the side of “Buffalo Bill,” the latter being chief of vengeance the Indians feared. With bared heads Stewart and his associates looked upon the fallen heroes. Then they set to work burying the bodies. For five days they worked without stopping, bared their heads again and passed from the cemetery of the best young blood of the country’s soldiery. Even that awful scene and work did not turn the young scout from his chosen work, and he remained in the service for 13 years, going next to Fort Abra- ham Lincoln and serving at most of the frontier forts from the Northern Oregon trail to the South- ern Santa Fe trail. Then he took to piloting “bull trains” for miners making their way to the Black Hills, and slowly drifted over the country from Prescott to Butte and from Frisco to St. Louis. His evil days iuave only recently come upon him and an honorable career ended suddenly, unexpectedly. One of the most notable exploite in which Stewart had a part while seouting followed a massacre by Indians at Adobe Walls, Kan., where three members of the Germaine family were killed and the two youngest girls, 12 and 14 years old, were carried away. Thirty-six scouts, divided into squads of six each, were sent out in pursuit and trailed the Chey- band for five months over several hundred

The ex- perience of many years, however, indicates that most of the individuals will come out during the last week in May.” It is stated that injuries to young orchards which suffer from egg punctures can frequently be obviated by rigorous pruning.

communication with cows, horses aud dogs. Kven the chickens and turkeys, it is claimed, are subject to his remarkable faculty. He does not carry on a conversation with these animals in the sense that one person talks to another. It seems, rather, a jsychic or telepathic communication that passes be- tween the boy and his animal friends. But what- ever the means, it is nevertheless alleged that he learns the wants and ailments of the animals and tells his father of them, Howard is now almost 7 years old. His faculty was first recognized several years ago when, after having been playing with the family dog on the porch one evening, he suddenly came to his mother’s side and said: “Ma, Trace says the mule is in the cornfiell.” Mrs. Erwin seolded the boy for saying what she termed such a senseless thing. “Trace can’t talk,” she explained, “and if he could he wouldn’t know whether the mule was in «ae cornfield or not. He's been on the porch with you for the last hour.” But Howard insisted that Trace had told him of the mule’s whereabouts, and finally the father, who had been sitting by smoking his pipe, became inter- 7 ee “He's always saying something like that,” ex- geet pa. _ “Tm afraid there's somethirg | him, b pl fever. 2 see td any-

culiar comri another message to the boy. ‘This time the dog's garrulousness came near getting him into serious trouble. “Trace has been killing Mr. announced Howard one day. “How do yeu know ?” asked the father. “Oh, he’s been telling me “about what a fine time he and the Norton dog had killing them,” replied the boy. Investigation showed that some of Tom- linson’s sheep had been killed. “You tell Trace he'll be killed if he doesn’t let the sheep alone,” Howard's father told the boy, half jokingly. Howard said he conveyed this message to Trace and that the dog had promised to give up his bad habits. | Later the “Norton dog” was shot while chasing the Tomlinson sheep, and after that no more of them were killed. Up to this time but little attention had been paid to the child’s remarks about having had talks with animals, His mother supposed that he was simply telling her about “play” conversations he had had with them, Then she began to be afraid the child was mentally unbalanced, so uncanny were some of the things he related. Since the incident of the mule in the cornfield his father and mother have watched him closely. The child does not realize that there is anything abnorma! about bis. » "s with animals. There is no pe- etween Howard and the animais, Tomlinson’s sheep,” be noticed as different from noises that the animals or the boy either might have made. But Howard, after a “veonversation” of this character, interprets What has been said, and does it in the most matter- Of-fact way. The boy's fame has spread through the country and the neighbors are sending for him when their more valuable animals beeome sick, in order to have him find cut what is the matter. When an unusually valuable Durham bull belonging to a neighboring planter, Maj. Pettus, became mad, apparently with- out reason, and raged around ‘the ities. Howard was sent for. He went fearlessly up to the bull and presently reported: “The bull says there is something in its foot and that the pain is making him wild.”” Exam- ination proved the truth of the statement. As he has grown older the boy’s capacity for inter- preting the thoughts and “conversations” of animals is said to have decreased. His ability was greatest when he was 5 years of age. From early chi'dhood Howard has been a boy of unusual qualities. His mother, who is poor and uneducated, but who has understood the remarkable character of the case well enough that she has mate more or less of mental note of the different stages of the child's peculiarity, says before he could talk he sgemed to understand Indians had observed them, for they regarded the insect with almost superstitious fear. It was sup- posed to be a forerunner of pestileneé and death. Nor were the first white settlers of America abje to escape some credence of this belies, it : seems from early accounts. In a work entitled “New England's Memorial,” printed in 1869, Nathaniel Moreton, after speaking of a siekness which, in 1633, eatried off many of the whites and Indians near Plymouth, says: “It is to be observed that the spring before this sickness there was a numerous company of flies, which were like, for bigness, unto Wasps or bumblebees. They came out of little holes in the ground and did eat up the green things and made such a constant yelling neise as made all the w oods ring of them, and ready to deaf the hearers: they were not any of them seen or heard by the English in the country before this time. But the Indians told them that sickness would follow, and so it did.” | He adds that tlie sickness was a “kinde of pestilent feaver.” and that it ceased toward winter. However, the fear of the insect as an advance sickres is not so great in the modern ferm-

The results are presented in this. page. The queer thing is that the man in question (who is something of an artist) insists that these pictures are chromatically correct and that they show the scenes depicted just as ‘they are; that these pictures are ‘‘nat- ural.’’: Pictures that are correct in color, he says, are ‘‘off,’’ and so they are, from his point of view. The color-blind man’s sense of form is always correct. He sees the outlines. of things just as other people do. Hence, eolor-blind artists always work in black and white. as Du Maurier did, and it is even said that in this medium they are the hest of artists.
