SAYS IT IS AWKWARD In His Petition He Tells of Finding His Wife With Another, a 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 1S 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 62 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 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 dtd not want to-live in the same room with her and did not regard her as his wite. 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 reporter. “I thought she would let, the. case go by default. It is very awkward for me, but I guess I'll have to fight. “I first met my wife 18 years ago I was going through a mattress fac- tory and when I saw her I was filled with admiration and pity.

Edwards of Sedalia, Mo., a freight brakeman for the Missouri Pa- cific Railroad, who lived, when in St. Louis, at 2011 Rutger street, wag in- stantly killed by bolt of lightning, which struck him while standing on top of a. freight car at Osage, Mo., eight niiles east of Jefferson City. Edwards lifted his lantern to swing it for a signal to’ a passing freight that the road was clear. The current of elec- tricity melted silver in his pocket, his watch chain and the case of his watch, a gold ring he wore, and tore the shoe and sock from his right foot, but did not blacken the body. Edwards fell from the ear, found between the tracks. Waited Vainly for Signal. H. S. Tanner, conductor on the freight train, whose home was also at 2011 Rut- ger street, waited vainiy the signal to go ahead after the other freight train passed, and when it did not come, began a search, which resulted in the finding of Edwards’ body. The freight train on which stood was No. 64, eastbound, from Se- dalia to St. Louis, Saturday night. It went into a switch at Osage to allow a fast westbound freight to pass. A storm -was- approaching,.. heralded by thunder ard lightning, but rain had not begun falling. Others of the crew noted the blinding flash just as the fast freight passed. It was accom- panied by a roar of thunder. Edwards was 30 years old. and two children live at 1018 East Fifth street, Sedalia. His parents live in Catro, lil. R. E.

SLAYER HASTENS HOME

Says He Meant to Surrender After Telling Mother of Tragedy.

In a fight caused by a dispute over a dollar, William B. Abbott, proprie- tor of three poolrooms, shot a cus- tomer early Monday tn his establish- ment over 106-110 North Sixth street. The man, wounded just above the heart, ran downstairs and half a block east on Pine street, then fell dead. His body is at the Morgue. Abbott is a prisoner in the Four Courts holdover, and says he fired the shot in self-defense. Abbott said he had never seen the man before, and none of the others in the poolroom was able to identify him. He was about 25 years old, 5 feet 9 inches tall and weighed about 160 pounds. His face was smooth, with no indication of any growth of beard, His hair was rather long and dark brown, his eyes gray, his teeth white and well kept, his hands e¢alloused andd_ iscol- ored, as though -~with hard work. He wore a new suit of clothes, bough at a department store. The suit is of black cloth, with small streaks of white run- ning lengthwise of the goods. He wore a white shirt, a celluloid collar, size 144%, and a black string tie. His cloth- ing was cheap, but new. In his pock- ets were found $2.10, three buttons and two keys and a bottle of medicine with no label tu indicate where it came from, The shooting occurred shortly after 2:30 a. m. Monday, and Abbott was arrested an hour later at his mother's home, 2825 Morgan street. A half doz- en men who were in the establishment at the time of the shooting were cited to appear as witnesses at the Cor- oner’s inquest. Abbott says that he expects them to substantiate his story, of self-defense. Never Saw Him Before. Abbott is 43 years old and has lived in St. Louis 16 years. He has been con- ducting pool rooms for 17 years past. He says he never took a drink of in- toxicants in his life, and says that he . Was never arrested before. the .man I shot until this morning,” said Abbott to a Post- Dispatch reporter at the Four Courts. “!l had been to my pool room on Pine street and had just entered the Sixth to settle up with Frank Kline who conducts the place for me. I was at a table counting up the pro- ceeds of the day's business, when I heard some trouble betwcen two men who had been playing pool. “One of them was accusing someone of having stolen a (¢ollar, and was threatening to blow out the brains of someone if the money was not returned, I arose and walked over to the table to told him to be and said I had seen many a man get into trouble over a dollar that cost him $15 in Police Court. “He would not stop, and told would blow out my brains if I fered. He thrust his hand into his hip ee ket as though for a weapon. “T ealled to Kline to get a policeman. Then the man struck at me. He hit me in the face. He still had his hand in his hip pocket. “Fearing he would shoot me, | drew my revolver ana fired. He turned and rap, and 1 did not know how seriously 1 had wounded him, Went to Tell Mother. “TIT never saw me he inter- “t* remained in the place for 15 min- utes and then went home. I was going to tell my mother and then surrender, 1 was arrested before I could get back to the Four Courts.’ Frank Kiine, Abbott's manager, said that the young man had entered the room about midnight, and had played a game of pool with the same man ,who had accompanied him to the place the game they was off, and ter. After playing marked that the “lid” yey would get a drink. Kline's version is like Abbott's, George A. Maitland, who lives at Nat- ural Bridge road and Nelson avenue, in St Louis County, witnessed the shoot- ing. Te said that Abbot red after the young nan had struck at him and men- aced him. oom

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.

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. He was arrested early yesterday morning, but was released after explaining his point of view to the Chief of Police, and was allowed to operate his bar at his amusement park. The tip went through the city and the place was crowded all dav. The Hebrew will be tried later, but he ts happy. He is enthusiastically booming the lid. Four other places where liquor is solid had been designated by the Retail Liquor Dealers’ Association to test the law. The proprietors of these were not only arrested, but the places were kept closed thereafter. Zesides the saloons, shops, bowling alleys, aters, grocery stores, eryvything except hotels, drug stores and railroad and street car lines, were closed. Two.-free ‘‘sacred concerts” at the largest amusement park in Jeffer- son County were not molested, but none of the employes was permitted to work. is

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 — investigation has been made. WOMEN FREE, MAN FINED, Blacksmith .

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 wha 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 a broomstick that his injuries sent him to bed.

IN 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 23.—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 Parliiment, 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., 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 HMras 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- tore the time set for the execution. The march to the scaffold was about to be- gin when a messenger brought word of pardon. There were remarkable scenes of re- joicing. The townspeople formed a pro- cession 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 attructed 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 6ilver 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 MRoy 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 By

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, alle ged 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. “ft think six years is long enough 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, Rey. Ww. 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 4is- 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 Sst. Louis as elsewhere.

, DRANK HALE A PINT OF POISON Grocer Called Little Daughter and She Struggled to Save Him, Must Contract to Use Rubber Heels. Special to the Post-Dispatch. WASHINGTON, May 23.—Rub- ber heels at the expense of land- lords for flat dwellers is the lat- est innovation of renting agents here. There is a clause in the more recent leases of apartment houses that every member of a family must wear rubber heels on shoes while in the apartment. The innovation is ‘for the pur- \pose of securing some manner of quiet in the crowded apartment houses. houses where go-carts are permitted it is specified that the wheels must be equipped with rubber tires. On moving in, tenants are sent to a nearby shoemaker who has a contract with the landlord to equip their shoes with the noise- less heels and consequently there: is never any complaint of ‘‘the racket overhead” in that house. The provision in the lease pro- viding for rubber heels reads as follows: “And it is hereby further agreed that the said party of the sec-

In apartment Broken Limb Had Made Man Sufferer for Many Months. Edward R. Klostermann, a grocer at 2400 Cass avenue, called his favorite daughter, Rosie, 17 years old, at 5 a. m, Monday, bade her farewell, and in her presence drank half a pint of carbolic acid, resisting her efforts to wrest the bottle from his hand. He died before a physician reached the house. Unremitting pain from a fracture of the right leg, which was broken a year ago and improperly set, is assigned by the family as the cause of Klostermann’s act. July 13, 190, soon after the leg was broken, he attempted to end his life by inhaling gas. He was found unconscious in the bathroom by his son, Chester, then 15 years old. and was revived. Rosie was awakened from sieep Mon- day by the voice of her father. He called her a second time, impatience ringing in his tone. She left the room adjoining his,-where she had slept with her motner, and went to him. Klostermann was sitting on the side of his bed, partly dressed. In his hand was a soda bottle. ‘‘Good-by, Rosie,’ he said. ‘This ends it all, little sweetheart.’’ With one hand Klostermann warded off his daughter, while with the other he pressed the soda bottle to his lips until he had drained the last drop. He then caught the girl convulsively to him and fell from the bed in a convulsion, Rosie's scréams brought the family into the room—Mrs. Klostermann and the other three children, who lived with their parents. After the first spasm of pain Klostermann lost consciousness. Dr. Orlando Gibson of 1310 North Jeffer- son avenue was summoned, but found the man dead. Klostermann was 43 years old.

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 that thew had come to him too late, ang that so far as he was concerned the Twelfth District slate would goethrough.

— Why Many People Suffer From Constipation

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. A whole bottle costs but a trifle, and it ia best to keep one always on hand. Every Druggist keeps it. i mn tape

Hayhurst, a carpenter, shot his wife and himself dead here yesterday with a shot- gun in the kitchen of his home. Both were dying when found. Hayhurst lately had been living at Arbek, this county. He and ‘his wife hav been separated for the last two years. Hayhurst had been sleeping in the barn while his wife and her two sons occupied the house. He went to the house yesterday morning while the wife and the sons were at breakfast. The boys left, going to the pasture for some stock. While they were gone Hayhurst shot his wife through the head twice and turned the gun on himself. Both were dying on the kitchen floor when her two sons returned. A _ sister, Mrs. Jennie Young of Fairmount, W. Va., and one son living at Centerville, Io., survive Hayhurst. Mrs. Hayhurst buried at Arbek, cord, today. and Hayhurst at Ge Strict.

EXPERT FIXES RAILWAYS

Trust Never Suffers in Any Traffic. Deal, Gruet Declares.

By Leased Wire From the New York Bureau of the Post-Dispatch. NEW YORK, May 28.—John P. Gruet, for many years secretary of the Wat- ers-Pierce Oil Co. of St. Louis, and one of the prominent men of the Standard Oil Company, which controls the former corporation, said today that there were some things he wished to add to his revelations in the Sunday Post-Dispatch yagarding the great oil monopoly. “I notice-that the Interstate Com- merce Commission in Cleveland is bring- ing out some facts regarding the trou- ble of independent shippers with rail- roads,’’ remarked Mr. Gruet. ‘‘One man said that his consignments were de- layed by the Water’s-Pierce agents. 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- jes connecting the principal cities. To guard against leaks, aS soon as a mes- 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 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 field forces throughout the country. H. M. Tilford is his assistant and factotum, who issues fiats to the subsidiary Standard Oil com- panies. James A. Maffitt is one of the smartest 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 sometkmes 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. 26 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 fleld and established a re- finery. Crude oil is shipped from Phila- delphia itn 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 tn 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.’ “Fixer.”

cA Parallel to George Meredith's Theory~ ™

& “@ ©

George Meredith’s strange theory—that marriage should endure only for a stated term of years, instead of for life—has received a startling confirmation from Mrs. Dora Stanhope, wife of the celebrated High Church Epis- copal rector of St. Jude’s, New York City. After less than a year of turbulent married life, Mrs. Stanhope has horrified her declaring that life-long marriage means nothing more nor less than life-long slavery. She has left her husband, returned to her father’s house and openly announces her intention of obtaining Basil Stanhope is one of the a divoree. As the Rev. most staunch supporters of the issue of the affair is awaited by clergy and public alike with breathless interest. If Dr. Stanhope connives at his wife’s suit for divorce (in some State that awards such decrees on‘grounds of incompatibility), will his associates in the clerical world continue to recognize a man who thus goes back on the tenets of his doctrine? If he refuses to sanction the proceedings, and his wife gets the divorce, can he continue in the High-Church min- istry, knowing what a scandal he will have unconsciously his congregation and ministerial drawn down brethren? . On the other hand, can upon case, or can he in any way live down the eossip that attaches to a man whose wife refuses to live with him? This is the chief situation in ‘‘The Man Between. Amelia E.

ers. It needed. That despicable class should be punished, but by legal methods, which are ample. The suggested use of the hatpin in a serious matter, for the hatpin is a deadly weapon, it making a deep wound which closes at the surface and causes in- ternal bleeding. Anyone assaulted in such a way, if he has no other means of resistance or escape, may lawfully kill the assailant to protect himself. Such suggestion by the Acting Chief is apt to be followed by some woman, not in the class of Caesar's wife, to satisfy some grudge and then falsely assert that some insult of the mashing kind was the provocation.

A poor, wayfaring man has often passed me on my way Who sought so hutnbly for relief that I could never SAY nay: 1 had no power to ask his name, whither he went or whence he came; Yet there was something in his eye that heart, I know not why. 8, THIS IS HYPERCRITICAL.

| CREVE COEUR CRUISE Cat Boat Sailing Has Become ws a Very Attyactive Pastime on the Cifcumscribed Waters of the County Though St. Louis is a mid-continental town and far from any great body of Water, there is some trifle of yachting enjoyed by its citizens along- somewhat limited littoral of Creve Coeur Lake. They are even talking of regattas, Lip- ton cups and such things are these hardy old sea dozs of the arm sloughs of the Missouri slough. It is three years since men tirst went a sailing of boats at Creve Coeur, Yet they are making preparations for a re- gatta. All they reed is wind to fill the sails. They have some water and Some-beats and canvas, but wind is | mot plenteous under the bluffs of Creve Coeur. ’ There are 15 vessels on the lake now, sloops and catboats. Several new boats have been built or are building

and older ones are being overhauled and putin the best possible condition for the race for the championship of the lake which will be held about June 6. This event last year vied with the championship competitions of the Southwestern Rowing Association for the distinction of being the feature ol the Creve Coeur Lake season. A course of six miles was mapped out and the Frazier Stewart Cup was won by the cat-rigged- yacht The Wren, which has been put in commission again this year and has been overhauled and especially prepared to defend the cup. This is the second year of the exist- - @nce of the club and its present officers are Commodore, Charles J. Daly; vice- cummodore, Fred E, Abel; captain, Clar- ence G. Carter; secretary and treasurer, Charles G. Andrus. The organization has built a handsome clubhouse on the banks of the lake that is easily accessible from water or land. The yachts are moored at the foot of u 50-foot runway. _ There are four boats built on the well- known Lark model. Of these the Wren, Which holds the cup emblematic of the ‘championship of the lake is the best, Re ee eee

The Oriole, another of the cat rigged boats, is owned by Jim Lamb and the Rook by Charles J. Daly, the Commo- dore of the club. Among the gentlemen who own sioops., that is yachts equipped with a jib and mainsail, are Bert Gunn, Frazier Stew- art and Fred Abel. Frazier’s boat is the largest, being 24 feet in length, with an 8-foot beam. The Witch is the proper- ty of Gunn. Fred Abel owns the Clip- per, a beautiful boat. Sailing on Creve Coeur is far more ex- citing than one accustomed to yachting in sea water would imagine. The sudcen puffs of wind bursting through the draws of the hills make sails difficult to handle and it is not unusual to see one of these gusts catch a skipper unawares, tear the sail rope out of his-hands turn the boat and-send it completely over. It is on account of these accidents that it is necessary to dress prenared for involuntary baths before boarding the boats. and sou’westers, slickers, navy duck trousers and light-soled rub- ber shoes are woOrn by the gailors. Usually there is no danger in a spin close hauled to the wind when the yacht | is in charge of a skipper and mate who are careful and capable anq the water, there its nose deep down in rights herself so quickly that Most of the yachts about the lake have been built for a skipper and a mate, but when used for pleasure pur- poses they will carry five and six. One of the yachts, knOwn as the Scoichman, with a green-painted hull, skimmed about the lake Sunday with three men in it, then drew up alongside | 1 |rather precarious work in midlake and skiff and took two ladies on board an excellent illustration of the ability of the sailorsmen. Charles J. Andrus, secretary and treas- urer of tlre club, is the most enthusi- astic devotee of yachting at the lake and he speaks eulogistically of its pleasures. “There are now about 15 yachts cruis- ing about the lake,’’ said Mr. Andrus.

Bay is not a bad man. Bresnahan has it on Bemis and Beulow by a good bit. But taking Mathewson as he is now, Clevelana has away the best pitchin staff.

the and A number of the Smith boys believe that there will be considerable ill-feel- ing manifested toward the McKinley entries, at the Decoration Day meet, and Football Manager Campbell says that he would not be at all surprised to see al] the rancor terminate in trouble. “It will be anything to beat McKin- ley,’ says Campbell. ; Otto Schwarz, who is attending Smith Academy, may not enter the A. A. U. swimming championships which are to be held at Laugnhlin’s Lake in Septem- ber. Otto is anxious to enter Yale next year, and says that he will spend the summer in study. If he matriculates for the Eastern school he will be in the Kast at the time the championships are being held here. Princeton’s victory over Harvard. Sat- urday, 5 to 0, practically clinches the right of the Tigers to the Eastern col- lege championship. Hagag, the McKinley hammer throw- er, broke his record 12 feet at the Sparta meet. Like -improvement within the next few davs will give him an excel- lent chance with his teammate Springe for second place in this event Wednes- day, Archie T.oud and Douglas Johnson did not participate in the Sparta meet with the other members of the McKinley team. Coach Pike counts on them as certain point winners in all the short distance races and he djd not want to take a chace of these cracks injuring themse!ves. Louis Klipstein says he will not com- promise the Smith-Western = Military Academy dispute. “‘Western will play in St. Louis or we will not play,” is the ultimatunmy of the Feuton to the soldier bovs. As a consequence the title of baseball champions of the Interscholas- tic League is apt to result In a tangle like that of last year when McKinley. Smith and Central all tied for the title. ¢ ry + Coach Chase of Smith deplores ti sence of track and field athletes at Red and White institution this vear. ‘What material I have,” says Mike Murphy's ex-assistant, “has satisfied me with its showing, but I woyld like to see more boys trying in the various events.”’ ee All the representatives of Yeatman are comparative striplings in size when | lined up against the representatives of the other schools in Interscholastic League events, and great praise is due Coach Fuller and Coach Crippen, who are in charge of the baseball team, for their work with their charges. Yeat- man is only in its second year as a member of the Interscholastic League, and by 1997 development of the present material should place the North Enq echool in the first rank of schoo) ath- P letics. There is no better athletic spirit ey1- denced at any of the local schools than | at St. Louls University. Though the Blue and White boys have been without a coach for two months, they oOrganizeg ;° a capable ball club and have been doing excellent work in track and field events. There wil be a large number of the gt. Louis boys entered in the Playgrounds meet, June 9, and their competition against the representatives of Wash. ington University will afford an index of the comparative abilities of the oy. door track and field work Of the ath. letes of the two institutions, >

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 in baseball clubhouse at Friday evening after practice, they were told to and in their suits and call it quits with the college baseball nine. The rough house was the outcome of an attentpt to bring circus life into schoo] athletes.

M'ALEER LEAVES FOR WEST MONDAY Raven Manager Pleased With 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.
