Edwards lifted his lantern to swing it for a signal to’ a passing freight that the road was clear.

MET HER IN A FACTORY

Says Marriage Was to Give Her Good Home and Ease. That pity which is akin to love can- not itself take the place of love is shown by the shattering of the romance cf Charles F. Betts and Martha Hudson which began in a mattress factory 18 years ago. Monday Mrs. Betts, who was Martha Hudson, filed an answer and a cross; bill to her husband's suit for a_ divorce which was begun 10 days ago. Betts is regarded as a wealthy man. He is president of the Fidelity Storage, Packing and Moving Co., with offices at 1739 Morgan street and 1005 Pine street. He is 42 years old and his wife is 40. Miss Daisy Hudson, 20 years old, Mrs. Betts’ daughter by her former marriage, accompanied her mother when she left the Betts home, at 2129 Morgan street, March 29 last. In his petition for divorce Betts al- leges that he followed his wife and found her with a man and that he had personal knowledge that she violated her marital vows. The separation fol- lowed. Wife Says There’s Another. Mrs. Betts in her cross bill makes a general denial of her husband's allega- tions and says that it was he who was faithless. She alleges that there is anoth- er woman who is known as Mrs. Charles F.. Betts and that this woman and Betts for long periods at various times have lived together at a house in the 6600 block on Washington boulevard. She says also that her husband, though wealthy. has compelled her to do menial service and to work for her own living, that he had no affection for her and that he often told her that he- wanted to get rid of her, that he did not want to-live in the same room with her and did not regard her as his wife. Betts is a man of striking appear- ance, He is six feet tall, straight and vigorous and has clear-cut, handsome features and a white mustache. “I didn’t think she would file a cross-bill,” he said to a Post-Dispatch gi Sid ra og ae she would lety e case go by default.

IN LOUISVILLE BUT A HEBREW He Sells Liquor All Day, Be- cause Sunday Is His Monday.

TAKE NOTHING Officials Put Rivets in Lid— Raid Ball Game, Ar- rest Players. OTHERS

Special to the Post-Dispatch. LOUISVILLE, Ky., May 28.—Gov. Joseph W. Folk of Missouri never sat down more earnestly on a Sundag lid than did the Kentucky authorities yesterday. Everything was closed, in- cluding the discussions as to what the police intended to do with Sunday baseball, They put the lid on it, ar- resting the club officials, the play- ers and all the employes. A Hebrew who does not consider Sunday the Sabbath day, and who, therefore, serenely indifferent to Sunday laws which do not go into ef- fect on Saturday, was the only man in Louisville or Jefferson County who sold liquor throughout the day.

Although bond was promptly given, the park was ordered closed, and the resumption of play was not permit- ted. The validity of the statutes and or- dinances under which the arrests were made will be thoroughly tested in the courts, but the authorities declare that in the meantime all places: coming un- der the provisions of the laws will be kept tightly closed. MISS TRACY LOST SHOES AND HOS Mysteriosu Disappearance of Little Soubrette’s Footwear Delays Performance. There was a delay of about ten min- utes in the rise of the curtain on the second act of “The Isle of Champagne” at Delmar Garden last night, and Stella Tracey's shoes and stockings caused the delay. They were missing, and little Miss Tracey went hopping about in great excitement, followed by her moth- er, both entreating Stage Director Stam- mers to delay the curtain until Stella could be properly hosed and shod. It's a pretty serious thing when mat- ters go wrong with the soubrette of a musical comedy company on the open- ing night of a season, and Stage Diree- tor Stammers joined earnestly in the ‘“‘hunt-the-slipper’’ game thus necessi- tated. The missing shoes and stockings were pink, to match Stella Tracey's cos- tume in the second act; she didn’t like to destroy the color. effect of her ‘‘get- up’ by substituting buskins and hose of another hue, and it was too cold a night to go on on the pink of bare feet, a la Trilby. So she and her mother and Stage Manager Stammers and others searched high and low for the missing articles, the. curtain remaining down meanwhile. Finally, however, the search had to be abandoned and the sprightly Miss Tra- cey was seen in brown hosiery and brown shoes when the act began. The mysterious disappearance of the others has not yet been accounted for, al- though a most rigid investigation has been made. . WOMEN FREE, MAN FINED.

Belleville. on Monday’ with- drew the charge against Mrs. Mary Schulz and Mrs. Mary Hermann, neighbors, who. he said, had attacked him with a club and a broomstick last week, and the case against them was dismissed upon his payment of costs. Then, in Justice Wangelin’s court Schlich himself whs fined $3 and costs ona charge of disturbing the peace in attempting to break down a gate opening on the alley, which was the cause of the trouble between the Schlich and Schulz families. The warrant against Schlich was sworn out by Mrs. Schulz’ husband, who claims ownership of the private alley, and who had put up the gate to which Schlich objected. Schlich charged that when he went into the alley to break down the gate with a sledgehammer, Mrs. Schulz and Mrs. Hermann. sisters-in-law, beat him so severely with a club and qa broomstick that his injuries sent him to bed.

WN AUTO: PARADE 200 Decorated Cars in Line in Honor of King Alfon- so’s Wedding.

SAVES CONDEMNED MAN

Princess Ena’s Request Spares Spaniard About to Die on Gallows. MADRID, May 28.—The feature of to- day's festivities in honor of the wedding of King Alfonso to Princess Victoria, as the Spaniards term Princess Ena of Bat- tenberg, was an automobile parade in which a royal party participated. Two hundred cars beautifully decorated with flowers and flags and filled with pretty women in gay costumes, defiled through the streets, which were packed with holiday crowds. On passing the royal palace, King Anfonso, Princess Charles and Fer- dinand and the Infanta Isabel joined the procession, the King and princes driving their own cars, The route was to the Pardo Palace, where Prin- cess Victoria reviewed the parade. During the afternoon the King and the Queen are to receive the members of Parlyiment, and later drive in an automobile through the palace park. During the trip the King observed a soaring eagle, called to the game- keepers for a rifle and fired, but missed. Mr. Whitridge, the special envoy of the United States, will arrive here at midnight tonight. Condemned Man Pardoned. y inducing the King to _ pardon a man condemned to death as her first notable act since she came to Spain to wed Alfonso XIII, the Princess Ena has further endeared her- self to the Spanish people. The King’s pardon reached the condemned man, Fernando Levera, just in time to save him from the gallows. Levera was to have been executed in the neighboring town of Badajose, but the population solicited Princess Eras intercession and she spoke to the King, who consulted with his ministers, and, after a Cabinet council, the Govern- ment resolved to grant the request, as it was the first petition the Princess had made in Spain. Thereupon the King issued a pardon, and the _ tele- gram announcing this fact reached the prison at Badajose half an hour be- fore the time set for the execution. The march to the scaffold was about to be- gin when a messenger brought word of pardon. There joicing. cession By were remarkable scenes of re- The townspeople formed a pro- and sang the praises of their Queen-to-be. The people of Madrid also highly approve the Princess’ humane intervention, and the newspapers com- ment upon the coming Queen's first act as being one of mercy. The Pardo palace was again the scene of royal ceremonies yesterday, the ideal weather permitting of open-air religious services on the lawns of the palace, where the military bishop celebrated mass. It was a pretty sight, with the brilliant uniforms of the soldiers form- ing a background for the royal per- sonages. Eva’s Wedding Gown. The gown in which Alfonso’s bride will be attired has attracted great inter- est in Spain, as it is truly a Spanish product, except for the wonderful Brus- sels lace. It was a fancy of the King and the Queen mother that the wedding dress should be made in Spain and the Princess Ena graciously consented. The dress is one of the special pres- ents from the King and is a marvel of elegance> The silk was manufactured from a special pattern in one of the arge Spanish silk establishments, It was made up with all the artistic skill of the court dressmakers. The silk is heavily overlaid with wonderful §ilver embroidery, with soft frills of the finest Brussels lace, said to have cost $50 a yard. The laces were publicly exhibited be- fore being put on the dress, and excited the admiration and astonishment of the aristocratic ladies of Madrid. Orange blossoms are profusely used with the silver embroideries and laces for the corsage, and even in dainty clus- ters along the train, which is four vards long. According to Spanish traditions, the bride must afterward present this grown to the Virgin de la Paloma, the popular protectress of maternity. SHE FAINTS AT INQUEST. Woman Becomes. Agitated When She Tells of Suicide. After telling how Roy Penfield drank carbolic acid because Mrs. Alice Elliott discouraged his suit, Mrs. Delia Ro- maine of 1414 Washington avenue, a witness Monday at the Coroner's in- quest into Penfield’s death, fainted as she rose from her chair. She was re- vived after five minutes and went home in a cab. Penfield was 27 years old and lived at 1414 Washington avenue. He went to the house where ‘Mrs. Elliott boarded, 1731 Morgan street, May 26, and was met at the door by Mrs. Romaine, who also lives there. He told Mrs. Ro- maine that if Mrs. Elliott refused to marry him he intended to end his life, and showed her a bottle of carbolic acid. Mrs. the

Romaine followed Penfield into room where Mrs. Elliott was and Saw him swallow the acid, she testi- fied. When she took the stand Mon- day she seemed agitated, and her nerv- ousness was increased by Dr. Lloyd's questions are to where she worked. She Said she was a waitress. She swooned as she left the chair. The verdict was suicide. FOUR YEARS FOR SHEETS. Convicted of Swindling Six Years Ago. Elmer L. Sheets was sentenced to ‘four years in the Penitentiary Monday, the sentence being the second for the same Offense, alleged to have been committed more than six vears ago. Sheets jumped his bond after filing an appeal from the first sentence and was caught last Wednesday in Topeka, Kan. William L. Briggs accused Sheets of Swindling him out of $174 by posing as & broker. Sheets was arrested Nov. 24, 1899, released on bond, and escaped. He was captured in San Francisco and brought back for trial. After “being sentenced he again escaped. Judge Kinsey in the Criminal Monday denied Sheets’ request continuance of the case. “I think six years is long é¢nough to prepare your defense,’ he remarked. Sheets said he wanted to file an appeal and Judge Kinsey said it must be done within six days or not at all. “HELL” NOT PECULIAR. Same on East Side as Else- wheré, Says Minister. In a sermon on “East St. Louis and Hell,’ preached to a large audience, Rev, W. Henry Jones, pastor of the First Christian Church of East St. Louis, found no difference between the conditions which make “hell” in East St. Louis and those creating the same etfect in other cities. Mr. Jones declared the love of money the cause of such “hell” as exists in Fast St. Louis. It breeds crime and ¢is- honesty, he declared, and the whole category of sins may be traced 40 it. Rev. Jones asserted that love for hu- manity was the remedy, in Fast st. ‘Louis as elsewhere.

She was sued for a cigarette bill in Chicago. and for jewelry in New York: for beard bills in San Francisco, and for the education of her childrén and other things. She went into bankruptcy and was relieved of $59,000 in debts. For a period she owned Greenacre, a fine coun- try home near Antioch, II. SLAYER OF MILLIONAIRE SNELL NEVER CAPTURED. The story of the murder of Million- aire Amos J. Snell and the sudden and inexplicable disappearance of his Supposed murderer, ‘Willie’ B. Tas- cott, has been the subject of police theories and newspaper stories for 18 years, but the slayer, if alive, is still a fugitive. Owner of the toll road running through Jefferson, and one of Chica- g0’s largest real estate owners, Snell was found murdered in his bed at his home, 425 Washington boulevard, Chi- cago, on the morning of Feb. 8, 1888. There was a bullet hole in the breast and another behind the left ear. A check for $5000, made by A. J. Stone, Mr. Snell's son-in-law, payable to Snell, was missing from an iron box in the bedroom. What other property Was secured by the murdered .-is un- known to this day, as Snell himsglf was the only person to’ whom the contents of his strongbox was known. An extraordinary feature of the crime was the fact that, although the murder was committed at 2 a. m. and the pistol shots awakened servants in the house, no attention was paid to the unusual noises and the body was not found until 7 o'clock, when the coachman entered the house to attend to the furnace. One by one the meager clews were taken up by hordes of city and private detectives and each was followed per- sistently to its baffling end. The mem- bers of the family could give little in- formation. The murdered man’s wife Was very ill at the time and was not told of the death of her- husband until several days after the funeral. The daughter, Mrs. Frank Coffin, who has since figured in sensational] divorces and remarriages, was visiting friends in M‘]- waukee.” The servants apparently knew nothing. A few articles found in the murdered man’s bedroom finally rastened suspic- cion upon ‘Willie’ Taseott, and the fruitless search across the continent and into foreign countries for a man with a $50,000 price on his head began. In the office of the Chicago custodian of police property today are a small russet hand- bag, a& plain gold ring with a ruby set- ting and a pile ef shirts marked “W. B. T.”"’ Some of these articles were found in Snell's home the morning aft- er the murder; others were recovered in a pawnshop; all were identified by a woman with whom he had associated as the property of ‘Willie’ Tascott. For 18 years Tascott has eluded the police of the entire country. No less than a dozen suspects have been ar- rested in different cities, but proved that they were not the fugitive and were released. And so the murder of Million- aire Snell, though not in itself so much of a mystery, has baffled the Chicago authorities for nearly two decades.

Morally Ed was—and there tense is correctly used—not proach. He had been in the partment too long for perfect ness of character. He had and has crude ideas about the rights of property. He believed and believes that graft is le- gitimate business; that. compelling men to pay sums of money to avoid humili- ating arrest is not comparable to the money-or-your-life policy of the high- wayman. His code of ethics condemns ing on a fellow-grafter; allows a tain discretion in the enforcement genéral orders and !aws and ordinances and loyalty to death in the carrying out of specific orders from superiors; permits not the least hint of cowardice; condemns to the uttermost limbo a man who is cruel to a child or a wom- an—especially an old woman. He was and is very cynical concerning women in the mass and a-mush of sentimental emotion to be blown hither and thithe: by the individual woman. He wouid jovously shoot it with an entrapped bur- glar, and having made a pepper box of his antagonist, Ed would carry the wounded man on his back to the hos- pital and tenderly the doctor in applying first aid.

They say that more will be brought into line by the threat of Joseph P.

The Kinney-Butler faction does not claim a majority of delegates in the district at present, but its leaders count on making gains outside the Fourth, Fifth, Fourteenth and ~ other wards known wholly or in part as But- ler wards. Kinney’s ultimatum that he would not throw down Butler for Flynn was given after an all-night conference which end- ed Saturday morning at the Missouri Athletic Club. At this meeting were present, besides Kinney, Harbor Commissioner Whyte, Street Commissioner Valliant, Sewer Commissioner Fardwell and Harry B. Hawes. For several hours they pleaded with Kinney to withhold his support from Butler, but his final word was: *‘Nobody has any strings on me.”’ He told them éthat thew had come to him too late, ang that so far as he was concerned the Twelfth District slate would goethrough. No longer is heard the assertion— “Col.”’ Butler's out of politics, he said it himself,’’ or ‘“‘Harry Hawes is out of politics, he had it printed in the pa- pers.’ Why Many People Suffer From Constipation This morning a score of children ap- peared at the institution with little iron banks, in which they had deposited pen- nies, dimes and nickels, and which they wished to leave with the bank. These toy banks had been distributed by the Savings Bank. Many of the children cried when they learned that the bank was closed. The seven other banks have prepared for runs, but so far there has been no withdrawal of funds.

A Sure and Safe Relief. Constipation is most often caused by a torpid liver or failure of the stomach and bowels to perform their proper functions. The condition is commonly due at first to irregular habits of living and improper food, and if properly treated can be readily relieved, It is, however, too often aggravated and made chronic by the use, as medicine, of powerful and expensive drugs, which purge and perhaps give tempo- rary relief, but are so drastic in effect as to damage the tender lining of the stomach and bowels, leaving a condi- tion worse than at first. This can, however, be avoided and, the bowels gently and thoroughly opened by the use of Nature’s own remedy—the fa- mous Natural Mineral Laxative Water —HUNYADI JANOS—which has been relieving suffering mankind all over the world for nearly half a century. One dose, % a tumblerful, drunk on arising in the morning (slightly warmed for best results) will, within an_ hour, bring a delightful and refreshing re- lief.

I do not recall] this particular case, but such things happened to many dealers who tried to oppose the Standard. “In the St. Louis offices a certain of- ficial was charged with the duty of at- tending to the railroads. He expended such money as was needed, and used whatever methods were necessary to head off competition. We other officers were particular never to know just what he did, because we always had in mind the possibility of being called to the witness stand under oath—so, while we imagined perfectly well what was going on, we could truthfully reply that we had no direct information on the sub- ject, “The Standard maintains an extensive telegraph system of its own. Along the route of every pipe line is the private wire of the company, directly owned by it. This affords trunk lines from East to West. In addition there are private wires leased from the telegraph compan- ies connecting the principal cities. To guard against leaks, aS soon as a mées- sage reaches a point on the tank line it is switched so that no unfriendly ear hears it. ‘Some witnesses assert that the tele- graph wires are tapped to learn of the movements of the rivals. That is pos- sible, but to prove it is a very difficult thing. A company that subsidizes rail- road clerks would not hesitate to ap- proach telegraph companies. But of this I have no direct knowledge, and there- fore cannot speak. Secret Service System, “All around the country spies and de- tectives are used whenever necessary. This system applies not only to obtain- ing information concerning rivals, but is applied to the Standard’s own employes. Men are tracked and watched as if they were suspected criminals. I have in mind instances where books showed ex- penditures that proved to be for secret service funds and reports on movements of individuals. “The system of obtaining information is an extensive one. Nothing that di- rectly or indirectly affects the trust is secret very long from 2% Broadway. It would be easily within the province of the secret service to know that I am talking with you in this hotel. I have no doubt that my presence in town was reported soon after my arrival. “ww, H. Tilford occupied a position in the Standard, which in ordinary busi- ness would be called general manager of the details of organization. He con- trols and directs the fleld forces throughout the country. H. M. Tilford is his assistant and factotum, who issues flats to the subsidiary Standard Oil com- panies. James A. Maffitt is one of the amartest men in the business. He is an executive in conjunction with W. H. Tilford, his particular lines being re- fineries and the freight situation. The latter department of freights is proving most interesting, in view of recent in- vestigations. Expert Rate ‘Immediately in charge of the railroad traffic is S. M. Felton, for many years connected with Western roads. He maintains intimate relations with rail- roads and officials throughout the coun- try, and sees to it that the Standard is never a loser in any traffic arrange- ment. Mr. Felton sometimes came to St. Louis to consult with officials of the Waters-Pierce Oil Co., of which I was secretary. in regard to rates in our ter- ritory. Rates and tonnage were never fixed with any regard for public or in- dividual interests, but always for No. 2% Broadway. “The United States is not the only country which’ suffers under the oil monopoly. Mexico is as absolutely in ite grasp. The Waters-Pierce Co. first entered that field and established a re- finery. Crude oil Is shipped from Phila- delphia in Standard tank steamers to Mexican rts and refined there by the Waters-Pierce refineries. “H. Clay Pierce of this ofl company je also a president of the Mexican Cen- tral Railway. Along this line, at Ebano. is an oll fleld that will be handicapped and undeveloped unless ownership goes to the Standard. The first act of the present management of the Mexican Central on assuming office, was to can- cel a contract for oi] with the Ebano operators. Mexico's greatest need is fuel, many parts of the country being almost destitute of it. Until the rail- roads establish a cheap commodity rate on fuel oll the country must suffer. “The Standard monopoly is maintained in Mexico by a variety of means. It long has been the custom in Spanish countries for officials to look to their private interests. I think I may say that the Standard has never scrupled in Mexico nor in the United States to gratify the private desires of persons whose influence was needed.’ y “Fixer.”

NEWS OF TRE the cast of ‘The Isle of Champagne,” with which the Delmar Garden Theater opened its season last Night, for it was a cold and qgpivery evening along weather lines and, of course, the Sunday “‘lid'’ was on, making the appropriateness complete. A bleak wind whistled over the crest of the hill that makes Delmar such an attractive place in the good 46)ld summer time, a chill rain fell at intervals, and, ail in all, it was a night when one would have preferred being by a cozy fire with a good book, rather than at an open-air resort Witnessing the best of musical comedies. a ee cant ot. FRAPPE was the most appropriately named character in Nevertheless, there was a fairly large audience at Delmar, and, after a sym- pathizing laugh or two at the half-frozen chorus when the curtain first went up on “The Isle,’’ the gr’ ening turned out to be quite rewardful in its offering. For there's a rattling good company assembled at Delmar this season—a com- pany. 80 capable that it warmed a teeth-chattering gathering into genuine en- thusiasm, making it forget the gooseflesh shudders running up and down its spinal columns, and wringing applause even from summer girls in foolish shirt- waists and summer men in desolated ice-cream suits with their coat-collars turned up. And a company that can do this—well, it's certainly full of promise for more genial conditions. King Pommery II comes mighty near being the whole show in “The Isle of Champagne’—a fact which made all St. Louis look forward with particu- lar interest to the appearance of the stranger comedian, John E. Young, in ‘that role—and Comedian Young grabbed the opportunity by the nape of its neck and made such a4 hit as Pommery that he’s already front rank of local popularity. He's a frank, simple, ingenious sort of comedian, vwrith a certain boyish way of funmaking that tickles a crowd ghtily, and he seemed to enjoy being Kig Pommery II with a youthful relish that made him forget he was on trial before a lot of people who had never seen him before in all their born days. As a result, not 10 minutes elapsed after his first appearance and earnest inquiry as io whether the chorus was loolring for a flock of overcoats unti] he was taken into favor and so continued to the fall of the last curtain on his restoration to the ‘“‘fizz’’ throne of his anges- tors. He's naturally funny, this new funny man of Delmar Garden, and it’s reasonable sure that he’s going to give us many an enjoyable evening out there, even if Mr. Bowie did greet him with a ‘frost’ on his opening night. The other newcomers followed in the commendable footsteps of Com- Tenor Rushworth, edfan Young, with something of an exception in the case of Te! who was Pommery’s son. Prince Kissengen, who.didn’t quite make the im- pression that was expected of him. He seemed to be a bit nervous, anc, at times, a trifle flat in tone, his best opportunity, the interpolated song, “If I But Knew.” being so unhappily missed that he didn't get an encore. gut ‘there Was reason to believe that he wasn’t at his best in that song, for in one or two duets with the new prima donna, Miss Caecilia Rhoda, his pretty lyric teno: was a delight to hear. As for Miss Rhoda herself, the Priscilla of the cast, she made the nicest of hits. She's an attractive young woman, with a face almost classical in fea- ture, soft brown eyes, shining brown hair, a graceful, maidenly figure, and she sings like a skylark. The audience took her to its heart almost at Once, and, when she finished the singing of “Oh, Thy.Sweet Bird,” in the second act, it was settled beyond doubting that this Miss Caecilia Rhoda was one of the big “finds” of the new Delmar season, So, too, did Jeannette Opie, th? Aus- tralian contralto, make good. She hadn't any too much chance in the role of Abigail Peck, but she made the most of what there was, revealing a :Jenuine comedy talent, and her voice was heard to advantage in the song "Can You Forget?’’ by Mr. Herbert Spencer of St. Louis, which was interpolated for her benefit. vivacious as Diana. and was ‘Comedian Y oung as King Pommery [1 Made This Astonishing Impression on a PostsDispatch Cartoonist’s Mind

Ne Fon THE BOYS AND GIRLS Cross Questions and Crooked Answers. To play this game it is best to sit in a circle, and until the end of the game no one must speak above a whisper. The first player whispers a question to his neighbor, such as, “Do you like roses?’ This question now belongs to the second piayer, and he must remem- ber it, The second player answers. “Yes.

| they smell so sweet,” and this answer belongs to the first player. The second player now asks his neighbor a ques- tion, taking care to remember the an- Swer, as it will belong to him. Perhaps he has asked his neighbor, “Are you fond of potatoes?” And the answer may have been, ‘Yes, when they are fried!’ So the second player has now a ques- tion and an answer belonging fo him, which he must remember. The game goes on until every one has been asked a question and given an an- Swer, and each player must be sure and bear in mind-that it Is the question he is asked, and the answer his neighbor gives, which belong to him. At the end of the game each player gives his question and answer aloud, in the following manner: “I was asked, ‘Do you like roses?’ and the answer wag, ‘Yes, when they are fried!'’’ The next player says, ‘i was asked, Are you fond of potatoes? and the answer was, ‘Yes, they are very pretty, but they don't wear well.’’ Castle. A circle is marked on the ground to represent the castle; a large one out- side limits the castle yard. Half the players retire to the castle, the others form the besieging party, who try to cross the yard and enter the castle without being caught by the _ ecastle dwellers. Every one caught is obliged to remain and become a castle dweller; but each one of the besiegers who suc- ceeds in entering the castle is allowed to choose two of the dwellers to return with him to the besieging party. The winning side is the one containing the most men at the end of the play period. : Sousa’s Band. One child is chosen to _ represent Sousa. He assigns to each player the name of ae different musical instru- ment, names some familiar air, and waves his baton while they hum the 'air and play on their imaginary instru- 'ments.

The Giants did not play what you would cail a sweil fielding game by any means. A great many of the hits scored against McGinnity should have been outs. McGann played like a side of - beef four or tive times and Dahlen was very bad. However, the Cardinals cracked old Joe in very hearty atyle.

CB. C. DISCIPLINES BASEBALL PLAYERS Longinotte and Coad Removed From the Team for Rais- ing Rough House. Because Louis Longinotti and Paul Coad, third baseman and catcher respec- tively on the Christian Brothers’ Col- lege baseball team, raised a rough house baseball clubhouse at the college evening after practice, they in Friday it quits with the college baseball nine. The rough house was the outcome of an attenfpt to bring circus life into schoo] athletes. The boys who received their walking papers are not the only members of the team that participated in the event, but were the ring leaders. After the regular practice Friday the players felt jubilant. When they en- tered the bathrooms they began to raise arough nouse. The noise was so great that the faculty member in charge of the ball team put in his appearance and saved the edifice by retiring Longnotti and Coad. The retirement of these players will help to weaken the college team, as Longinotti is one of its best hitters and Coad is a good catcher. Rice or Allen will be put on third in Longinottoi’s place, but the chances are that Rice will be the man, as he is a Player. Coad's position will be master- lv-like filled by Stunts McMahon, who is as good a catcher and perhaps a bet- ter sticker. Belle of Nelson, The cream of Bourbon.

the Showing of His Team. Special to the Post-Dispatch. PHILADELPHIA, May 28.—The Ra- vens depart immediately after today’s game for Cleveland, where they play the Blucs a series of four games, re- turning home and opening up with Defroit June. 1, While McAleer is elated over the showing of the team on the initial invasion of the East, he realizes that his nine has done quite as well as could be reasonably expected. One game was won at Chicago, four at Boston, none at New York, three at Washington, and there is a chance to annex today’s game with the Ath- letics. The record to date stands eight games won and eight lost. Jack Powell will twirl today for St. Louis and Coakley for Philadelphia.
