. Winston Churchill, iia! Written the Railroad ~Lobhy That Runs the State Into a Book and Then Told How to Put the Octopus Out of Ac- tion, Is Being Urged for Governor of the Little New England Common- wealth on a Platform of War Against the Boston & Maire. By JON E. GORSE INSTON CHURCHILL, W “vived the American historical novel with that charming ro- mance. ‘‘Richard Carvel,’ made _ § S8t. Louisans proud by locating ‘’The Crisis’ in this city and bored us with “The Crossing,’ has followed the pub- Heation of his latest work of fiction— “Coniston'’—by an announcement. of his candidacy for Governor of New Hampshire. , Being from Missouri—the home Folk and Hadlev—he is a reformer. Being of New England stock he is a Republican. He wants the Republican nomination for Governor. That is the oniv nomination that is worth anything in New Halnpshtre. He may get it, but the @gainst .him. He belongs to the new wing e Republican party, the lib- ff wing which ts particularly known under the name of Lincoln, It claims all that is good in the party and aims for that which is better. Rallroad Runs the State. ‘Mr. Churehill’s friends in New Hamp- shire hold with him in saying that the Bostun & Maine Railway controls the Officials of that State from Governor, through the Legislature down to hum- ble clerks. In consequence’ whereof, they aver. the railway does not pay {is proportion of the tax burden, stifles commerce and retards the growth of the State. His platform who re- of odds are is in particular § to smash the Boston & Maine—not rudely, anarchistically, but. effectively and equitably. are. persons in New Hampshire cruel enough to. suggest that Mr. Churchill's campaign is due to his de- sire to boom “Coniston” and those who have waded through this turgid mass of fictitious fact agree that it needs all the booming ingenious author, publish- er and press agent can devise. It is the story of a boss, a village Shylock who becomes a manipulator of legislatures and a maker of governors, ‘am unlettered man of keen native “shrewdness, who dominates mesmerica!- ‘Tyimen of finer mould, a New England ‘Warwick whose trade and dissipation is the. baser politics. Jt is a dreary story, not to be graded with the repulsive ‘Jungle,’ for it does +t nauséate and it does not titillate. | ut the hero of “Coniaton” is a po- litical boss and Churchill is fighting the political boss. He has induced the peo- ple of New Hampshire to read his novel that they might guess what boss he had in. mind when he drew Jethro Bass by denying that he had any New E epenpaltre boss in mind and asserting’ thatthe original lived in another State. - Anothér State?—could it be Missouri? : Perhaps and perhaps, too, the publish- a ers press agent will arouse the: guess- | ing fever in us. en Winston Churchill left Smith lemy in St. Louis he went to An- iis for he wanted to be an Admiral a pea A few years demonstrated his un- ’ Gitnéss for the navy and he. resigned - tobecome an author.

found more satisfaction in cutting a big figure among the Cornishmen than in being one of a’St. Louls crowd. He seriously believes that the honor of be- ing Governor of New Hampshire—a State that if dropped into Tom Greene County, Texas, could only be found by a s@€arch warrant—‘is worth a tremen- dous, serious, sfraining struggle. Per- haps it is: -Perhape, tee; the fight: will give him new motifs for the kind of novels. he prefers to grind. : Senator Gallinger’s Fling. » Senator Gallingér is mistaken in as- suming that his candidacy is “incon- séquential.”” As the New York Evening Post remarks, Mr. Churchill is not a shrinking violet and he has ‘‘carpet- bagged’ to a State where seriousness is. at a premium. It is the New York Sun that calls him a ‘“carpet-bagger,’’ but the epithet will not lose him votes in New Hampshire. It means something in states that men from New Hampshire misgoverned after the war, but up among the abandoned farms they welcome the Westerner who brings in money and will give him of- fice to keep him there. Churchill made himself solid with the electors of Cornish and was sent to the Legislature as a representative. Goy. Batchelder made him a staff colone?!; the Speaker put hinr at the head of the Public Improvements Committee. One who watched his career says: “at first the people af Concord were flattered that’ so famous a man. should interest himself so earnestly in their commonplace affairs. Mr. Churchill's manner and bearing, however, soon made him popular, and gained for, him everywhere the good will of all who met him. His Mix-Up With the Governor. “Tt was understood that the legisla- tion in which he was most interested was gobd roads and a bill to make free the toll bridges over the Connecticut River into Vermont. “He intimated that the Governor had given him clearly to understand that he would approve a bill covering the latter subject. Such a bill, introduced by Mr. Churchill, passed the House and the Senate. but when it came to Gov. Batchelder it was vetoed on the ground that it would cost too much. The meas- ure, if passed, would ‘have cost the State several hundred thousand dollars. Thereupon Mr. Churchill surrendered hie commission as colonel on Gov. Batchelder’s staff. He then urged the passage of a bill,to grant State iald to certain highways through the = State, was made chairman of a special com- mittee to consider all bills on the sub- ject and to report 4 comprehensive scheme embodying all ideas. “He did this—or his committee did— but the measure was reported..so late in the session that no action wag taken. He made an earnest effort to persuade the House to appropriate $40,000 or $50,000 and finally any sum for an exhibit at the St. Louls Fair, but the spirit of economy was abroad, and nothing was done. At the close of the — he re- turned to Cornish.”’ thstanding the ‘ie yostubsreney in pique the novelist fs known In New Hampshire as’ Col. Churchill.

HAPPENINGS OF THE WEEK. ‘The @vidence against the Standard Oil Co. taken im Cleveland, O., has been submitted to the United States District Attorney at Chicago and it was an- nipunced on Thursday that the United States Gov- ernment is likely to begin proceedings in Chicago to dissolve the trust. __ John D. Rockefeller’s cabled comment on the Ohio Warrant for his arrest was that every one who knows anything knows that it is “nothing but politics.” His most recently published picture shows him playing golf in an outing suit and looking greatly undisturbed. Still, he finds Europe more restful than Qhio, Lilinois or Missouri this year. “Lincoln Republicanism,” which first appeared in New England, seem# to be making an impression in Pennsylvania. The candidacy of Lewis Emery Jr. for Governor as a Lincoln Republican with Demo- ctatic indorsement is being taken so seriously that the Philadelphia organ of Republican regularity calls the “Lincoln party” a “canting, sniveling, bush- whacking clan.” Language like this is never used by professional experts in July except for the pur- pose of sounding an alarm. It seems that something serious is happening, ha’ happened or is about to happen which may create the most distressing irreg- ' ularity in the working of party machinery. iIn speeches made during the week in the West d Southwest, Justice. David J. Brewer of the United States Supreme Court appealed strongly to all who believe in American constitutional govern- nient and are convinced that the highest results hieved in America are results of principles of con- Cccdtciat government, which can bring failure and Sere only as they are ignored or violated. A publican presidential candidate with a record standing unmistakably for what Judge Brewer de- fends and advocates, might easily make ex-Gover- ‘npr-General Taft available for a museum of relics ifustrating the worst crazes it is possible for a ntry to recover from. ; On behalf of the Cherokee Nation, or what is left it, Frank J. Boudinot applied, on July 17, to the preme Court of the District of Columbia to re- ain the Secretary of the Interior from paying 50,000 of Cherokee money as a fee to a single firm lawyers. From the beginning to the end of their story as wards of the United States the “Civilized ibes” have been systematically wronged in many Ways, but in no way more astonishing than this of e enormous sums of their money allowed as fees oyna lawyers. Perhaps at the end of the fory, when they are about to become citizens of _ State, they may have found at last a lawyer ho has fully earned his fee and is not seeking undue compensation. In that event, they err greatly if seeking to discourage legal conscientiousness by withholding its just deserts. ; | eg After fighting a battle at Jicaro, Guatemala, on July 11, and several others afterwards, Salvador, Honduras and Guatemala sent peace commissioners to meet Wednesday on board. the United States cruiser Marblehead. President Diaz of Mexico and _ the State Department at Washington agreed that : “ the warring republics had no reason at all for fight- ‘ing and the warring republics declared an armistice leginning at 6 o’clock, July 18, in order to give this bs novel proposition the dignified and courteous consid- eration international diplomacy demands. As the taste _ for protocols is almost as strong in Centra] America a8 the taste for war, the opportunity to indulge in 33: ls and be photographed afterwards in a froup engaged in signing a treaty, may satisfy the | demand for glory on both sides. ption on Wednesday and coincidently New Mex- felt over fifty successive shocks of earthquake. ie: of them may have passed over uninhabited ter- Bees itory with a violence equal te the shock at San Es. » but except at Socorro, they did little or damage in the towns. The August magazines, during the week, continue to give authori- re explanations of the San sco earthquake _ fi a local affair, due to the movement of a “fault” _ ib the neighboring mountains. No information is yet bi ming to show why an earth that seems be full. of such “faults” should have a series local affairs of this kind this year such as have ’ : 4 _ and Stromboli showed signs of volcanic wn taking place for some uch “literary quality” in the letters Of the amateur Mo,, on July 18, in her husband's trial for killing Jay 2 + ae ie : a “ Saee ee - TE TE ae er Mt de ~ *S De oak, ‘ROPE sf 7 se got ER Getic d oa AES Ste : point where, as a distressed and guilty heroine, she confessed to her husbarid. he infer- ence from the letters is that she expected her hus- band to kill the lover to whom the letters were written, as in fact he did, under what seems to have ‘been the necessities of her sense of artistic fitness ‘in constructing a literary plot. The order to enforce the eight-hour law in gov- ernment contracts follows the report that Mr. Lit- tlefield of Maine is not having a walkover for re- election to Congress. The Federation of Labor op- poses him. There may be no connection between these two events. But Mr. Gompers uttered a solemn warning to the President a few months ago. It would be a pity if Mr. Littlefield, whovis a very useful Congressman, should be the first to suffer from the resentment of the Federation. But if the Federation is really active against him we may be sure that other Republican candidates will not be forgotten. the defender of Port Arthur, had been condemned to death lacks confirmation. The bureaucrats of Rus- sia, who went into the war with Japan without knowing anything of the difficulties of the task, are naturally anxious for vindication. This they can obtain most cheaply by discrediting the men who did the fighting, on the ground that they did not fight hard enough. But it is hard to believe that they will goso far as to kill the fighters. The merits of Gen. Stoessel’s defense of the fortress, from a military point of view, can be determined only by those who understand military science and have had actual experience in war. The Japanese officers who took part in the siege are certainly well quali- fied to judge. They testify that Gen. Stoessel did the best that could have been done. To a disinter- ested mind that seems conclusive. But if a scape- goat is needed Stoessel will do as well as any. Rus- sia is pervaded with the spirit of unreason. Only the unexpected and unlooked for need be expected there. In the Consular Report for July 19, Consul-General Henry B. Miller, stationed at Yokohama, warns American manufacturers and exporters that in at- tempting to extend American trade with Manchuria and Korea they will have to compete not only with Japanese merchants, but with the Japanese Govern- ment itself. It appears that the Government of Japan is making loans to Japanese exporting com- panies, on cotton textiles, matches, cement, beer, ma- Manchuria and Korea, at low rates of interest and extremely favorable terms. Consul Miller says the new movement amounts to a partnership between the Japanese Government and the commercial] inter- ests, by which the railways, mines, forests and other properties of the new countries are to be exploited, for Japan and Japanese captains of industry, to the exclusion of foreigners, though foreign capital is wel- comed in floating the Japanese corporations. The Consul says that there is a clear purpose on the part of the Japanese Government to protect, super- vise, develop and nationalize al] the important indus- tries of the country. The nationalizing of the rail- roads was but a single step in this gigantic program. It is to be noted that in this proposed inauguration of state socialism in Japan, one’element is ignered— the workers of Japan. In the universal paternal- ism which must follow the development of the scheme, what will be their portion?

WHAT HONESTY CAN DO AND GET. As the editor of an “Encyclopedia of Social Ke- forms,” Dr. W. D. P. Bliss must have sympathized deeply with the sufferings of his fellow man and fellow woman, under stress from a “hurry call” for an essay to settle the deep question dealt in at the Monday Morning and Saturday ‘Afternoon clubs, Perhaps this sympathy moved him to arrange every- thing alphabetically, so that, helped by index learn- ing, the most unpracticed student can grasp the eel of social science by the tail without risk of pal- lor and emaciation. Whatever his motive, his great work makes him a remarkable man, with views that are sought after and published. . His views on politics are remarkable. ‘Honest men, save sporadically,” he says, “can do little and get little in politics.” Then he says a number of other things which might be arranged alphabetically for ready reference. But this seems to cover everything in and out of the Encyclopedia. . 3 It certainly covers Dr. W. D. P. Bliss’ knowledge of politics and of American history.’ From the beginnings in 1776 until 1906, the honest man in American politics, with the courage and sense to validate his honesty, to “make good,” as they say in politics, has done everything and more than every- thing he expected and got everything, if not more than everything, he looked for. What Franklin expected to get when a crisis ealled for his brains and honesty, was the immediate reputation of a traitor and the imminent danger of the rope. What James Otis expected to get was proscription and poverty. They were not deceived in their expectations of what honest men who are de- termined to “make good” get in an actual crisis. They saw that the threat of the worst must be faced in “making good” against the worst. It seems that this was the case 2000 years ago, and there are clear statements to that effect in a collection of writings, not usually referred to now as a work of reference in competition with encyclo- pedias in preparing essays on a “hurry call,” It did not change during the nineteenth century, at any rate, in this country or in Europe. Mazzini, Kossuth, Hugo, Schurz, got exile, but they got what they expected in politics. They also “made good.” Their honesty counts, and it will continue to count, in the modern world above all the forces of nine- teenth century dishonesty. | These things appear plainly only at a crisis, but in the y politics of the time, local, State or na- tional, the final result. is to be explained after other résults have failed and passed, by tracing everything pack to the honest man in polities, the man who

It is a conventiona! view of what honesty ought to “get out of politics.” But it is what honesty cannot get and remain hon- esty, If, instead of stopping with the conventional view, the man who wants nothing out of politics except results for honesty, goes after them with brain power and courage shown in rallying to the old flag and an appropriation or to philanthropy and a percent- age, he will get, first and last, the fight of his life, but he will get results for honesty. Nothing can stop him—except he be stopped by a front seat on the platform or a place in the band wagon.

FINANCE AND THE SOUL, The Chicago News publishes an interview with a representative of the evangelical, work of the Moody Institute on the cost of saving souls in that city. “As a rule,” he says, “it takes six sermons and a long private talk to convince the ordinary Chicago man or woman that eternal life is obtainable only by first saving the soul.” He adds that the average cost of doing this work is at least $2.50 for each soul saved in Chicago. Rev. Mr. Soltau of Chicago, consulted on the subject, de- clared that the cost is increasing because of the cheapening of literature. This surprising disclosure is explained by the statement that when people are reading cheap liter- ature it requires more “evangelization” to reach them. In plain Chicago English, it takes more talk: and the talk costs more money. | This seems to be the ultimate reduction to the dollar basis. It leaves nothing beyond it imagina- ble for statistics—unless indeed Satan should stop to tabulate the cost of brimstone as a means of il- lustrating the importance and difficulties. of his work. And that is unthinkable at present. Thus far, he has been kept too busy by work he does for love of it to give Chicago tabulated returns of what It costs his backers.

VARDAMAN AND HIS “QUESTION,” Gov. Vardaman of Mississippi announces that he wifl make his race for the United States Senate on “the race issue” as the chief issue in Mississippi. “It is the real, live issue,” he is quoted as saying. There is another,-however, much more real and much more living. It is the issue of getting men of educated brains to the front in Mississippi, men who will bring Mis- sissippi to the front, who will stop the eternal prate of “Nigger, nigger, nigger,” and do what ought to be done to make Mississippi the best possible place to live in for everybody in it, black and white, dur- ing the twentieth century. When Mississippi and the South begin to forge ahead into the twentieth century with all that be- longs to the twentieth century in reach, there are always Vardamans to force to the front with the question: “What do you expect to do to keep from being no better than a nigger?” Mississippi deserves to be represented in the Sen- ate by a Democrat with educated and operative brains,

¢o¢—___ — .-— There must be something wrong with the Dingley tariff when the Washington Post, an avowed pro- tection journal, frankly says: “Free hides, free wool and free meats will give us the Argentine trade, as they gave it to England., It is absurd to under- take to drive England out of the Argentine trade by means of ship subsidy. We will get that trade when we come to value it more highly than we value the Dingley schedules, and not before.” ———_-—--—-# 4 MR. SINCLAIR’S CO-OPERATIVE DREAM. Whatsoever Upton Sinclair finds to do that he does with all his heart and.with all his pen. He murdered Arthur Sterling—in fancy—with a whole soul and probed the depths of the Packingtown jungle with undivided zeal. He devotes himself now -to his dream of a co-operative servant-girl-problemless home with an energy leaving no room to doubt his conviction that nothing else is half so important in life. Mr. Sinclair has proceeded in regular order with his scheme. First, there were fasting and medita- tion. Afterward, there was the writing of a little something. Then he sent out many circulars of in- quiry. He is in ecstacies over the responses, They have come in regardless of race, color, previous con- ditions of servitude or state lines. The common dwelling place is all but complete—on paper. What remains to be done is in the line of routine. Mr. Sinclair’s prices on land convenient to New York are to be verified, the land procured, the buildings put up, the subscriptions collected and the people moved in. America has seen many experiments in co-opera- tive living before. Conspicuously, there was Brook Farm. Afterward came North American Phalanx No. 1, in New Jersey, with the Fourier-Horace Greeley ideas, from which Mr. Sinclair borrows free- ly. Similar settlements, earlier and later, have had their days. They have not lasted long. Outside the army and the apartment hotels co-operative living is at a low ebb. Yet one should not wish on this account to discourage the young author of the new- est plan. Mr. Sinclair may be the very man selected by eco- nomic fate to solve the greatest of all co-operative problems—that df finding people of the right human nature to starid living together long enough to make the game a “go.”

STREET RAILWAY CARS. The Department of Commerce and Labor em- phasizes the importance of the subject by chronicling in its latest bulletin the fact that 4 steel passenger car has been completed at Pittsburg for the South- ern Railway, 74 feet 6 inches in length and weighing 110,000 pounds. The department regards the comple- tion of the car as marking the beginning of the gen- eral use of steel instead of wood for all kinds of rall- way cars. No wood was used in the construction of the steel car at Pittsburg, save for interior deco- rations, and that wood was made fireproof, and it is claimed that the car could not be telescoped in a collision, that the ends could not be crushed in and that it is absolutely noncombustible. , IFE SAVER. | At last man why athe to live without air. Sodium peroxide, one of the newer products of electrolysis, is.a compound of sodium with oxygen that decom- poses in the presence of damp carbonic acid. The value of this substance may be gathered from the fact that a man cari live in an airtight box as long as any sodium peroxide remains unconverted. It is sug- gested that, by means of sodium peroxide, submarine boats will be able to remain under water for con- siderably longer periods than hitherto has possible. Just héw long will be a matter of calcula- tion, the factors in the calculation being the amount of oxygen converted into carbonic acid by one man in one hour, the number of men present, and the weight of peroxide that can be carried. Used in mines, it should enable a miner to live with his head literally in a bag of India rubber containing this per- oxide, whereby he can tide over. a period of danger. - VALUE OF LIGHTNING RODS. The protection afforded by lightning conductors on isolated buildings at this period of the year is strik- ingly illustrated by a fact stated in Symons’ Meteor- ological Magazine that in the United Kingdom nearly four hundred “unprotected”’ buildings are damaged annually by lightning. It appears from the British statistics quoted by this journal that out of 125 cases of “protected” buildings struck by lightning within three years .there were only 2 cases of the failure of thefjightning conductors, an average of less than eight failures a year. It is highly probable that among these cases in which the lightning rods failed to prevent damage there were some which should be ascribed to defects in the conductors or to lack of skill in adjusting them. But taking the above statistics as they stand they clearly show that lightning conductors. when properly attached to exposed buildings do afford re1l re been protection. Many of the so-called failures to protect are doubtless due to poor or insufficient conductors | or neglect to extend them beneath the building decp- enough to reach ¢rainaently wet ground, — MINE OWNED BY WORKERS. People who believe in co-vperation are greatly in- terested in the Caledonia Cval Mining Co. at Sag- ipaw, Mich., all the stock in which is owned and controlled by the workmen who dig the coal, says the Technical World, The company has been in exis- tence but a few months, but already it has forced a reduction in the local retall price of coal from $4.50: to $3.50 a ton. Started with a membership of 100 and a total capitalization of $50,000, the demand for coal has been so great as to necessitate the increasing of the membership to 600 and the capital to $250,000. Some time after it was in full operation, a strike of: coal miners closed every other mine in the State of Michigan. Only the Caledonia kept on producing to its ful capacity, and—true to the principles its own- ers profess—it did not take advantage, by a cent; of the opportunity to raise the cost of coal. As evidences that the experiment is so far greatly successful, Mr ’ Cook states that recently the Caledonia has leased an additional 500 acres of coal lands, adjoining its present holdings, and is already at work putting down new shafts. | NEW FEATURES OF RACING MOTOR BOATS. Consul Paul Nash makes a report from Venice on improvements to motor boats ,as follows: A’ naval architect told me that some of the high-power motors, in the Monte Carlo races had a universal joint in the shaft, between the motor and the thrust bearing, so that ia deviation of the shaft from a straight = Hi - would not affect materially the running of the motor.

In other boats steel girders were used for this purpose. as tapering the end of the shaft to a point beyond the propcllor, and also the knife-edge of the stem. In a series of experiments made last year by a Scotcn designer, the difference in the fineness of the stems of ships has been shown to influence their speed very materially, and this seems to have been taken int> year. .

I have one child—this 4-year-old, by name John Quincy Jr. The lad’s mother and I, his father, are both fearful for the boy’s future. We want him to be something —somebody. Since his birth we have been keeping Statistics as to the influence of wealth upon youth.” The Bostonian reached into his inside coat pocket and drew out a notebook, “In 253 specific cases of which we have had per- sonal knowledge,” he said, consulting the book, ‘‘we have only six sons of rich men who are, to use a colloquialism, worth blowing up. The rest are all failures. At least half of these failures, in the opin- lon of the boy’s mother and myself, would have amounted to Something had they been free from the handicap of wealth. . “Now, we want to conduct an experiment. You are commended to us as a good man—a plain man and a poor man, to be sure, but a good man. My wife and I have a theory that if you take our son and raisé him until he is 2%, he will be a success. You are to keep him in complete ignorance of us. He will soon forget us. He may fret a little at first, but he will speedily adapt himself to new conditions. ‘You are to permit him no luxuries beyond those enjoyed by other children of poor men.

«€ ‘New Interstate Commerce Law Sounds Knell of Free Rides, Special to the Post-Dispatch. CHICAGO, July 21.—Probably 100,000 annual complimentary interstate rail- road passes will not be reissued: Jan, 1 next. Instructions are now being sent out by presidents of all the important Systems that by reason of the passage agitation for the restoration of old Cumberland, or National, road, which was built by the United States Government between 1806 and 1839. This is a work which in excellence is in some degree comparable to those splendid military thoroughfares created by the Romans, not only throughout Italy, but in practically every country of Europe in which they get foot as con- querors. Even in England today the finest roads are those that are chiefly composed of the old Roman foundations, upon which MacAdam himself, that ex- ceedingly useful Scotchman, does not appear to have been able to improve. The Cumberland road, although built under contract and with Congressional appropriations—facts which now would make an investigator doubly inquisitive —is said to have been a thoroughly hon- est piece of work. It was the first and greatest highway of its kind constructed by the United States Government; is 700 miles in length, reaching, as laid out, from the Potomac at Cumberland to the Mississippi at St. Louis, and it cost $6,824,919.33. Certain portions of it have been maintained in good condi- tion to the present day, in spite of the fact that the railway train more than portation after Jan. 1 must be limited to the classes exempted in the rate measure. This cuts off the annual passes that have been issued to thou- sands of persons with political, theat- rieal, traffic and other connections that have been favored in the past. There is no come-back or reading be- tween the lines of the orders being is- sued, and on and after Jan. 1, what is known as the purely complimentary in- terstate railroad pass will be a thing of the past. The fact that the person asking for. a pass as well as the cor- pordtion issuing it is Mable to a fine will help the railroads in observing the law. The new act does not, of course, af- fect the thousands of exchange annual _ Passes issued by officers of one rail- to officers of another line.

Fine Basis for Modern Highway. The Cumberland road, with supple- mentary roads connecting it with the great Eastern cities, affords the best basis for the proposed modern highway from the Atlantic to the Mississippi, and to utilize it as such would unques- tionably vastly lessen the cost of con- struction. Throughout nearly its whole length the original foundation remains. It was laid out by commissions appointed by authority of Congress and was built

} Seats of the Famous Old poem erland Road. uyder the supervision of approved en- gineers of the regular army. From Cumberland, Md., the starting point, to the Ohio there were only two artificial restrictions ag to its course. The Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, in granting permission to the Federal Gov- ernment to construct the road tn its do- main, made the proviso that it must pass through Washington, the seat of Washington County, and Uniontown, the capital of Fayette County. The first commission was empowered to locate the terminus of the Eastern section of the road anywhere between the mouth of Grave Creek, near Wheeling, on the Ohio River. and the northern limit of Steubenville, From one the four to another of points, Cumberland, Uniontown, Wash- ington and Wheeling, the route was laid as straight as possible, in reasonable conformity to the face of the country. But beyond the Ohio it was even more direct, Congress requiring that, except for its touching the capitals of the three states, Ohio, Indiana and Illinois, dis- tance must be economized as much as possible. It crosses, therefore, a great part of the rolling lands between the Ohio and the Mississipp!, especially the prairies of Indiana and Illinois, in an almost absolutely straight line. The width of the thoroughfare was fixed by Congress at four rods and its greatest grade at five degrees. The average cost per mile from the Potomac

to the Ohio was $13,000, far exceeding charged with the supervision of the re- “ee The Sates took very eat pride the estimate of the commissioners, but through the comparatively level region beyond the latter river it was less than half as much.

— TWENTY DAYS FAST YEARLY WINS HEALTH W. H. Thompson Takes Annual Vacation From Food and Work,

LOSES FORTY POUNDS

Drinks Water, Swims, Takes Long Walks and Strength Trying Exercise. Epecial to the Post-Dispatch. BROOKFIELD, Mo., July 21.—M. H. Thompson, journeyman tailor, is more than a good coatmaker. He is a phi- losopher. Physically, he is an attract- ive type of manhood, a heavyweight, with a chest and arm and limb mus- cles like a gladiator. At this season of each year Thomp- son takes a vacation and gives attention to himself physically. Seven days ago he began his annual 20-day fast, with a vow to reducing his weight and increasing his health. For 20 days he abstains from any food whatever, save a little fruit in the morning. He drinks only water. In the past seven days he has reduced his weight 20 pounds. At the time he began fasting he weighed over two hundred. He ex- pects to reduce to 160 pounds in 20 days, or at the rate of two pounds a day. During Thompson's 20-day vacation and fast, he goes for a swim, walks 10 miles each day and takes all sorts of athletic exercise. He is a thorough optimist, a lover of nature, or books and little children. Small boys are his swimming companions. Thompson was born in Russia and has had military training. His bearing is that of West Point man. He speaks rapidly, earnestly and interestingly, and is a well read man. “My theory of fasting is that it is beneficial otherwise than as a flesh re- ducer,’ he says. ‘To fast 20 days means to drive from the body every germ. In act, the germs are consumed, and ith the waste tissues of the body, driven from it.’ During the first three days of Thomp- son’s fast he suffers from hunger, but after that suffers no inconvenience. His idea is that he lives, like the bear who hibernates in winter, from his own flesh. He says to fast for 2 days will cure any case of catarrh of the stomach or stomach trouble of any kind. He be- lieves men eat too much, anyway, es- pecially meat. “The American people, as a race, are killing themselves with their gluttony,” said Thompson. ‘Instead of living on $30 a year for provisions, the average man spends $100, and a like amount for each member of his family for his table. I believe if the human race would live on as plain and simple and nutritious food now as they did in ancient times, in Bible times, man would now live to be anywhere from one hundred to one hundred and fifty years.”’ JOHN A. WALSH 1S STILL RICH MA Bids for His Railroads Insure Fortune After Debt Payments, Special to the Post-Dispatch. CHICAGO, July 21.—Belief existing in La Salle street for several weeks that John R. Walsh has gradually been re- gaining his financial footing, and would soon be able to pay off ali his obliga- tions and still have a handsome person- al fortune, has been greatly strength- ened. Announcement was made that the New York Central Railroad had of- fered $18,000,000 for the Southern Indiana and Chicago Railroad | oh. na aga and pan there were other termined bid- ers. The clearing house committee which has been handling the Walsh properties since the closing of the Chicago Nation- Bank and affiliated financial insti- tutions, it was said, would hold out for 000 because of the serious efforts to gain the property that have been manifested by more than one combi- nation. Financial men declared it not improb- able that the New York Central il- road Co. would make an offer in com-

Railroad and the Chicago, Milwaukee & St. Paul Rallroad Co. are said to be opposing bidders to the New York Cen- tral, and the Illinois Central Railroad, it was known, has made zealous ef- forts to keep competition out of the territory touched by the Walsh roads, CHAS. F. QUINN.

egiiill TAP LABOR. UNION THREATENS STRIKE Hotel Man Sends Walking Delegate About His Busi- ness—Trouble Brewing, Special to the Post-Dispatch. NORTH YAKIMA, Wash., July 21.— How quickly the Japanese acquire American customs is illustrated by the organization here of a Japanese asso- ciation, which, from its methods,. ap- pears to be nothing ‘more than a labor union, with all its adjuncts. That the Japanese union is in fine working order was demonstrated when the walking delegate visited I. B. Tur- nell, proprietor of the Pacific Hotel and

| informed him that if he permitted a cer- tain Japanese to remain in his employ as porter the other Japanese employed about the hotel would be called off. Mr. Turnell was astonished at the demand, being ignorant of the exist- ence of a union here among the Mi- kado's sons. He ordered the walking delegate or business agent, from the hotel and then sought the other Japa- nese in his employ. They corroborated the statement of their emissary, de- elaring that they would not work this certain fellow countryman re- mained in the employ of the house. They remarked that he was no good, not being a member of their associa- tion Mr. Turnell avers that he will not submit to the dictation of a Japanese labor union. and will continue to em. ploy the porter although the other Japanese help about the hotel has gone out on a strike. Salmon Comes to Kitchen. BELGRADE, July 21.—The overfiow of the Morava has caused serious devastation in the Servian provinces. Many villages are flooded and a wom- an recently. found a 60-pound salmon Sevndering in her kitchen.

LEAVENWORTH GETS THE BIGGEST GUNS Shift in Batteries Adds to Kan- sas Fort Equip- ment, LEAVENWORTH, Kan., July 21.—The War Department's plam to have every style of artillery represented at each big army post is to be put Into effect at once at Fort Lefivenworth, and there will be stationed here shortly the Six- teenth Battery, siege artillery; the Elev- enth Battery, fleld artillery; the Twen- ty-ninth Battery, field artillery, and one section of the mountain or “jackass” battery. The Eleventh Battery is equipped with six-inch guns, or siege howitzers. The guns of the Sixteenth are seven-inch, so Fort Leavenworth will then have two of the heaviest batteries on wheels in

the world. It had been ciacaial ‘ee a fort at Buffalo, N. ¥., and Sixteenth and Eleventh there to show. the Canadians on the other side of the water what huge guns the Americans have, but for some unknown reason this was not done, When You Were a Boy Did you play keeping é oti sell lemon- ade, ice cream, candy, cakes, water- melons?

I., July 21. HE season's handshake has been introduced by Mrs. W. R. Trav- ers, who is just back from Europe and who dealt it out at the Ca- sino in Newport with becoming poise and skill. In a becoming brown. Panama cloth and sun hat to match, Mrs. Travers first registered at the Casino and then turned to meet the cottagers who crowded around for a personal greet- ing. The hand is extendeg as in the for- mer style, but, instead of being held high, is given at a height just above the waist line, and the holding of the hand is of much longer duration than the exclusive set has hitherto sanc- tioned. Mrs. Travers knows best, and her ati- thority will not be questioned in these matters, although any attempt at over- doing to the extent of holding hands will not be considered in goog form. Mistakes, of course, are likely to hap- pen at first until the new handshake has lost its novelty, and for a while Mrs. Travers will be called upon to'do stren- uous handshaking for the good of the cause. emia FATAL CANCER FOLLOWS THE STING OF A BEE.

FALLS CITY, Neb., July 21.—The mystery attached to the disappearance of William Reece, a young farmhand, over a month ago has been cleared by the finding of his remains and evidences of suicide. The body had been torn by dogs before discovery. The baying of hounds in a ravine near the Missouri River, on the farm of Charles Elrich, near Fargo, led Elrich to discover the body. He was first at- tracted to the dogs in his backyard and there found the dogs fighting over the possesssion of a human _ thighbone, which they had dragged from the riv- er’s edge. So ferocious had the animals become that the farmer could scarcely beat the dogs off and secure the sév- ered member. The hounds then started for the river, several rods away, and Mr. Erlich fol- lowed. All along the path he found human bones and pieces of clothing The sum of $6.50 and a watch badly rust- ed was found in the pockets of the overalls. In a secluded spot on the brink of the river lay what was left of a human body, dismembered and torn. Elrich drove the dogs away and notified the Coroner. Search of the river bank disclosed a large stone, to which was tied a rope partly sticking out of the water about five feet from the top of the embank- ment. The stone, which resembled a millstone, was at once associated with the dead body and it was thought that the person undoubtedly had jumped into the river with the stone tied about his neck. This led to a further investi- gation, resulting in the theory that the remains were those of William Reece, a young farmer, who mysteriously disap- peared from his home at Barada about a month ago. The story was then recalled that voung Reece had been madly in love with the pretty daughter of a well-to- do farmer near Barada, who spurned his attentions and for love of whom he had repeatedly threatened to commit suicide. It was remembered that Reece, after a quarrel with the young by Megs had left her house telling her that he would never trouble her any more, as he had made up his mind to tie a miiletone to his neck and cast himself into the river. June 11 he wrote a letter to his broth- er, Frank, near here telling him that he did not care to live any longer and that the latter should keep his wages for him until he called for them. e had been employed by his brother, and often, in making a stay at Falis City or some other —— town, he would request his brother to look after his money in- terests. Frank Reece at once made an investigation and the most diligent search did not reveal the where ts of his brother Willlam. Finally he and everyone familiar with the history of the case concluded that unfortunate young man had taken hfs life. The young woman o has been men- tioned as the object of Reece’s unhappy devotion did not believe the suicide stories, think! that they were merely idie threats which would never be car- rieg out. She thought Reece would some day return. In spite of the fact that positive iden- tification was not possible under the cir- cumstances, it is generally believed that the remains were those of Reece. The clothing fits the description of that he wore. When You Were a Boy Did you play keeping store, sell lemon- ade, ice cream, candy, cakes, water- melons?

REJANE’S THEATER COLOR SCHEME LIKE FAVORITE DRESS French Actress: Intends Her Playhouse to Be Pretty and Modern. Special Cable to the Post-Dispatch and New York World. LONDON, July 21.—Mme. Rejane has spent two days in a teur of the London theaters to gather hints for the intro- duction of the latest improvements in theatrical architecture into the mag- nificent new theater which she is build- ing for herself in Paris and which she hopes will be ready in October. In explaining her pilgrimage Mme. Rejane frankly admitted that the the- aters ‘of London are far superior in structure and design to those of Paris. *‘Perhaps,’’ she added naively, “‘this is because in Paris we have always con- centrated all our energies on our dra- matic art rather than on technical de- talls. ' “Indeed, I am not sure,’’ she added, ‘that theatrical managers in Paris have not rather neglected their public.

The little alcoves and the gilded pillars which the London theaters have on either side of their stages are, to my mind, very pretty, and I mean to introduce them into the *The- ater Rejane.’ “I may say that the color scheme which I have chosen is similar to a fa- wn of mine which 1 wore in ul roles.

Special Cable to the Post-Dispatch and New York World, GENEVA, July 21.—A gypsy caravan, consisting of one man, four women, who he says are his wives, and 16 children, arrived under police escort at Berne. The gypsies had taken nearly six months to travel from Aosta, in Italy, across the Simpion Pass to Berne. Near the hospice on the summit of the pass the gypsies were stranded in the deep snow and were only saved by the at- tentions of the monks. The monks packed up the children in wool and blankets and placed them in boxes to keep them warm. Otherwise they would have perished from the in- tense cold. The gypsies, who had some horses frozen to death, will be expelled to Italy.

A Hot Weather Breakfast Malta-Vita is rich in all the nutrition of the best white wheat and finest malt extract and is prac- tically predigested because the malt extract, when mixed with the cooked and matured wheat, turns the starch of the wheat into maltose or malt sugar. Malt- ose, a great strength-building and health-giving food element, is readily assimilated and taken up by the blood. Malta-Vita thus, furnishes the body and brain with needed nour- ishment in abundance without giving the stomach a lot of hard work to and without heating the blood oe without clogging tt the system with use- less waste material Malta-Vita is all food, and most |

GRAND RAPIDS, Mich., July 21.—A double wedding was celebrated here in which the brides are twin sisters, have always been inseparable and became ac- quainted with the bridegrooms and en- gaged to them at the same time. The brides were Nellie and Della Bero and the bridegrooms Warren Fuller and Charles A. Booth. Fuller married Miss Nellie Bero and Booth her sister. The young ladies went to Kalamazoo from Saginaw about a year ago. They lived almost all their lives at Saginaw, and worked in a factory at Kalamazoo. he sisters look so much alike the forewoman found it necessary to tag them with numbers. Miss Nellie Bero was known as 52 and Miss Della as 80. Both girls became acquainted with their husbands the same night, soon after going to Kalamazoo. The two couples were together almost constantly ever sinte. They made announcement of their engagements at the same time.

AUSTIN, Texas, July 21.—At the age of 102 years and after being without a tooth in his head for more than a quarter of a century, Jack James, familiarly known as “Uncle Jackie,” a well-known negro farmer who has lived in the Garfield neighborhood since the war, is cutting a brand new set of teeth, and is as happy as a’ baby learning to walk. Constable Hamby says Uncle Jack's new teeth are the talk of the neighbor- hood and that the people are loath to beHeve it to be a fact until they have visited the old negro and have seen his teeth for themselves. Hamby says the teeth are just through, good, and are small and sharp: very similar to a baby’s teeth. All the upper ieeth are through and several of the lower Frow. Uncle Jackie says he is satisfied he will have some new jaw teeth, as he can al- ready feel them. Notwithstanding James’ extreme old age he is not an invalid by any means. He is up and going most of the day, and when he gets his new teeth he de- clares he will be as young as most ne- groes at 50. Roumania and Greece Quarrel.

But from time immemorial it has been the habit and privilege of the senile to de- ery the glories of the youth of the pres- «at and make odfous comparison be- tween the'r times and the days of their uwn foregone hobbledehoy hood. Thus it is that, when I associate with the boys of today—and i deariy jove boys—I often think that they do not lave anywhere near the fun we used to have when we were in our halcyon days tvo twenty ago. Of privila@e of us who have passed the Great Divide of Life and ciimbed midst the snows and the storms up the foothills of boyhood and the glaciers of young manhood to stint our steps on the other side of the dc- cline and, as We gently and reluctantiy stroll down the gentle inclines which fetch us from the heights of 35 to the depths of three score and ten, stop and want to talk of the great good times we had in the pleasant valleys before we began the steep and rough ascent on the other side, the days when responsi- bility was not of ours and when papa paid the piper. naive in his | Ly. years and the tee Decay of Hero Worship. Nothing in the boyhood of these fin de sicle days impresses. me so much as the almost entire decay of hero wor- ship which so marked the days in which we fellows who were born in the years after the war were so prone. No doubt the boys born before the war had noble heroes to worship, Grant, Lee, Sherman, Sheridan, Thomas, . Stuart, and men who stood high in all the ages. Alas for us who were fated to eome after, we had no great warriors in our immediate purview. Hence we were obliged to take the next best and idol- ize great athletics of the ring, the race- course, the gymnasium and the field. And how we did do homage at their shrines! I frequently marvel at the eternal loyalty we gave the heroes of our days, the early ‘80s. I suppose that Sullivan, dear old John L., was the idol of most of us, at least of more of us than any other one man. We all knew of the terrible right that no living man could withstand. How we were wont to punch old sandbags and swing at bundles of rags and start our rights at our heele and swing them to cellar ceilings as we felt that some day we would be John L.'s ourselves. Greatest of all the heroes of our boyhood was the Boston Strong Boy. Now gray and grizzled and fat and flaccid we cannot gaze upon the old gladiator without a renewal of the feeling of worship and awe with which we regarded him 2 years ago. Truly if it is a sin for boys to worship false gods old John has put most of us now edging to the 4-year mark widely astray. Do the boys of today idolize Jeffries, a much greater man, as we did the old * fellow? Not by a jugful.

Half way up the steps he turned, his face alight with the big soul behind those clear, gray eyes, Here was some- body who might need him, and he was ready. That is characteristic of the Cardinal. He responds to every call. He stood there in the last of the even- ing sunshine, smiling patiently, while the: Post-Dispatch reporter explained complains bitterly of the conduct of Harry K. Thaw toward her daughter, now his wife, and implores Mr. White to do all in his power to bring her back to her mother’s control. In the letters Mrs. Holman refers to Thaw as a scoundrel, a villain and a man with murderous intent in his heart. She tells of an interview she had with Thaw while they were in Paris and declares that Thaw wanted her (Mrs. Holman) to sign an affidavit to the effect that he (Thaw) had never intend- ed to make Hvelyn his wife.

Toledo Circuit Court Finds ~ Contempt Sentence Was Not Legal. ¥ DEALERS STILL CONFINED

Attorneys Given Intimation - That Clients’ Release Is Very Uncertain.

OHARGES AGAINST JUDGE Voters Meet and Criticise Jur- - ists—Any Motion Is Held Valid. ——

Special to the Post-Dispatch. ‘TOLEDO, 0.,- July 21.—Deciding against Judge Kinkade point by point in nearly every item of his decisions against Attorneys Tracy, Brown and Smith, when he held them in contempt, the Circuit Court this noon reversed Judge Kinkade and released the ice magnates’ attorneys from serving their sentences which were 10 days in Jail as the first two cases and a fine of $250 as to Smith. The Court virtually held that any sort of motion can be filed in any court with impunity, if it be filed in good faith. The decision, while not entirely unex- pected, created a great deal of surprise in that it did not place the attorneys under any bond when the attorney for the State filed notice of appeal to the Circuit Court. With this contempt case out of the Way temporarily the Circuit Court is now Yeady to take up the petition in error against the ice men themselves, and Monday afternoof the trial of their cases will commence. The Circuit Court did say this morn- ing that the finding in the case did not mean that the alleged scurrilous and in- famous charges against Judge Kinkade, which were contained in the mention, out of which grew the contempt cases, Were true, and intimated that the at- torneys would have to show good cause hefore the ice men would be released. >The most sensational outcome of the court decision was at a meeting of the independent voters at Walbridge Park this afternoon. Some of the leaders ent after the judges rough shed, and eir action was warmly criticised. BE. B. Southard, one of the leaders, said: “The fellows who elect inde- pendent prosecutors can also elect inde- pendent judges.” William Cowell, chairman of the In- ee last Election Committee, dad: “I did not particularly want to see those fellows in Jail, but back of pm I can see the influence of great neyed powers.”’ OLK 1S LAUDED BY LAFOLLETTE

The employes of the United Railways will help swell the Post-Dispatch Free Ice and Pure Milk Fund by giving an exhibition band concert and ball game Thursday, July 26, at the American League Park «: Grand and Sullivan avenues. The band concert will .precede the ball game and will commence at 2:30 Pp. m. The organization is made up entirely of the motormen and conductors of the United Railways. There are 72 pieces in the band. All the men holding a po- sition, either the band or the two ball teams, will be forced to lay off from work, which is equivalent to each of them subscribing $2 to the fund. President Hedges of the Ravens has kindly donated the park for the occa- sion free of charge. Ten tholisand tiekets have been printed and those in charge of the affair are sanguine that they will all be sold.

meantime, Mr. Holman, and in her des- peration it seems the only person she ever cared to appeal to was Mr. White, who had been known as Evelyn Neés- bit'’s early protector. Mrs. Holman wrote to Mr. White as follows: Appeals to White for Aid. The morning papers say Florence is in New York. .If the coward won't say she is honorably his wife, please try to get her to see you and talk sense to her and have her understand the awful light he has placed her In before the world, “I am simply tortured with re- porters. My head has simply been splitting for a week. You have no idea how disgraceful this affair is to to the Pittsburg people. They driv~ me wild telling me to take action, that she is not of age. “Mr. White, pliese do try to talk to her. She is too young to under- stand how she is being wronged. I hope I hear from 8 very soon. . . ‘yd truly, “EB. F. HOLMAN.” On Nov. 2, 1904, Mrs. Holman ad- dressed another letter to Mr. White, in which she said: “Of course, you are aware of Flor- ence’s arrival in New Yark, also of the trouble they had at the Cumberland Ho- tel in New York, where they were stay- ing first. Where they are now we do not know. We have been bothered to death by reporters today, but have said nothing. One asked me if I had any- thing to say, and my answer was all l know and we know is what we have read in the papers. I also just read a telegram from orence, and this is the contents: ‘Arrived safely. Don’t mind a Will write.’ . “We have said nothing, as I said be- fore, and shall not until we get some- thing definite to work on. to the eo writing we have had nothing ut newspaper comments, and shall wait for something definite and then will act. “We keep you ted, as we know you are more or less Interested in this affair, as well as the girl's inter- sts. “We might add, we do not look for you to do anything that will compro- mise you in any way, and fully appre- ciate your kindness in the past as well as at present. Ver truly, | “E/ F. HOLMAN.” White Knew Thaw’s Secrets. It appears that Thaw became aware of the fact that White had been appealed to by Mrs. Nesbit, now Mrs. Holman, and that ghe architect knew of the quarrels between Thaw and his present wife; also that -Hvelyn had told her Stepfather that she was not married to Harry Thaw at the time they arrived from Europe and were driven out of the Hotel Cumberland. — Thaw at that time had given out a statement which was afterward corrob- orated from Pittsburg that he and Eve- lyn had been ma while in Eurore. at White was the only person not of his family who knew that this state- ment was false, and that Thaw did not until months may be that they Thaw should ever be pk on trial for murder and Mrs, ‘Nesbit-Holman should >a witness.

severe-| tolman,” LETTERS SHOW THAT WHITE PAID SBiITS’ BILLS fore she went on the stage, and later her friends came to call her Evelyn. But to Stanford White she was Flor- ence. The Howard mentioned her younger brother, Howard Nesbit. Among the first letters, and one which ig considered of the utmost importance, is one written by Mrs. Nesbit to Mr. White. It is undated, but was penned after Mrs. Nesebit had returned from abroad, where she had been abandoned by Harry Thaw and Evelyn, who at that time was not his wife. The letter was headed simply “Friday,” but evi- dently was written in 1908. It is as fol- lows: ‘“‘Deay~Mr. White. * ‘Yiour letter received. Will send Flor- ence's letter as you desired. When we first. went to Paris and met) Thaw, he and Florence quarreled continually. We were—at least, I was—indeed, miserable. I expected each day to hear her say we would return to America. Thaw came to me and asked me to sign a paper. The article was that he did not ntend to marry Florence. I thought as she hated him so, I was doing the right thing. I do hope something can be done to save her from him. He does not in- tend to marry her. I only hope when she hears about the paper that her pride will at least save her. “Very truly, E. F. NESBITT.” Another letter reads as follows: .“Dear Mr... White—Thanks: for the letter and clipping. I beg of you try and find sOme one to talk to thé poor girl. Oh, the awful position he has placed her in before the world. She should die rather than receive any favor from him after this. He has given the world to understand she is nothing more than his tool. I am al- most crazy. I have talked to no one and have not spoken to a reporter, al- though they have me dying. It makes me ill to see Mr. Holman have te hang his head for such a villain. I hope t ohear from you very soon. Very sincerely, Kk. F. HOLMAN.” About the same time Mrs. Holman had considerable trouble about furni- ture and other goods that had been in storage, evidently under Mr. White's name. Among Mr. White's ef- fects there has been found a letter, Written on March 20, 1904, by Mrs. Holman and addressed to him. In this letter Evelyn's mother says: ‘Since writing you, Mr. Holman and I have talked the matter over in ref- erence to goods in storage. He said it would take stormy and legal ac- tions to secure same, consequently your hame would have to be brought in and that would please Mr. T. too much, Rather than involve you, we will drop the matter, although it makes my heart ache to think of the beautiful things going to ruin. I have advised Morgan to send my goods at once. I hope he won't worry any. Also trusting you are well, and that you will always keep me posted of any news you may have of Florence.” White Most Kind to Nesbits. That Mr. White was most kind to the Nesbit family is shown by a note which bears the initials “E. F. N.” and is as follows: “Dear Mr. W.—The management of this hotel won't let me move my goods until I pay $66.66. I am sorry to ask, but Florence is getting restless. Can you send it before noon today, please? Sincerely, BE. F.

July 21.—Nine persons lost their lives this afternoon |by an accident which occurred in Bur- rard Inlet, the harbor of Vancouver. The Chehalis was run down and cut in two by the steel steamer Princess Vic- toria, leaving this port for Vietoria and Seattle. The Chehalis had on board a party of 15, bound for the oyster beds at Blun- den Harbor, on the northern coast of British Columbia. The party included the owners of the beds and representa- tives of the English syndicate who con- templated purchasing the oyster beds. YOUTH POINTS OUT HOUSES HE ROBBED Young Miller Confessed Obtain- ing Property From Fifty Homes. Young Miller, alias Albert Miller, ar- rested at Ninth and Market streets yes- terday on suspicion, confesses that in the past three weeks he has entered 100 houses in St. Louis and has stolen things from 50 homes. ‘Accompanied by Detectives Cremin, Finan and McFarland and Special Of- ficer Callahan, he took the back track yesterday afternoon and pointed out as many of the houses as he could remem- ber. Among the places he identified as hav- ing entered were the following: ooming house of Mrs. Wright, 1414 Olive gtreet, where he was discovered by a roomer and frightened away. House of Mrs. Lizzie Thompson, 1604 Olive street, where he got three razors, a suit of clothes, a pair of suspenders and a set of books belonging to Gfover Albin.

Baltimore Hotel, 1608 Market street, where he obtained a gold watch and chain, worth $90, the property of An- drew Schoen. House at 1216 Pine street, where he got two revolvers, four razors and a ir of pants, property of William lugo. Residence of Mrs. E. L. Crandell, 3328 Washington avenue, where he ob- tained a gold watch and chain and a marnifying glass. Clothing and other articles have been recovered from various pawnshops. On his person, among other things, was found a membership of the Illinois Commercial Men's Association, bearing the name of Albert C. Nichols. It is supposed that Nichols was robbed by him. A warrant will be issued against him Monday. Jefferson Prime, who was ar- rested with the confessed robber, tells a straightforward story and it is thought by the detectives that he did not Enow of the other’s operations. Prime says he met the other man on Market street Friday night and was given a meal and some clothing, but he did not know it had been stolen. HE WANTS THAT WHISKY.

It would appear that Hum- mel was consulted by White in regard to his associations with the Nesbits, and that Mr. Hummel upon more than one occasion gave advice to his friend and client. The letter referred to is dated March 22, 1904, and jis addressed to Stan- ford White. “Dear White—The entire spirit of Mrs. Holman’s letter is high minded. I like the way which-she has volun- {tarily surrendered the claim for fear that fighting for the goods might bring about publicity.

Hearken unto to the Prophet, ye men of Alton, ye that smil that thing that is consumed by Him of the Mighty Thirst, the thing that is of malt and divers other things, and is set forth before the multitude in great goblets of glittering glass. Hearken and give heed to the | words of wisdom that the Prophet doth now speak.to you. Hearken that ye may not be thrust into outer darkness, saloonless and licenceless by the works ef an angry woman. For be it known that the women of Alton know that there is a lid law writ- ten on the sacred tablets. And full well they know, too, so they do declare, that the lid law which was sent down for your guidance has been broken in many ways. And the manner of their learning Is as it is written here. A certain man there was, by name John Watsker, who dwelt in Alton, In the street which is called East Second at the number 1302. There. it was that he dwelt. Even so. For it was there that three square meals were set before him each day, the place wherein he dwelt being a boarding house, of which John’s wife was the guiding spirit. And it was not written in the book that John should dwell apart from his wife and the boarding house and the ‘three squares.” Beer—It’s Cost and Danger. But it is not wouchsafed to man to eat at every hour, and so it came to pass that John felt called to make cer- tain pilgrimages to haunts of the un- righteous, where are signs on the walls that tell of the thing of malt and the glittering glasses—that thing that is called Besr and can be had by an: for a certain small piece of money—a —s &-F part.

LONG WALK FOR THe LID LIFTERS Thirsty Must Go Outside Two- Mile Limit in East St. Louis. It looks as if East St. Louis people and visitors from St. Louis who want to buy something to drink on Sunday will have td walk a long, long way. While the East St. Louis” police were serving notice yesterday on the saloonkeepers within the city lim- its to close up tight today they also served the same notice on the keep- ers of all saloons withing two miles of the city limits. Saloons within this distance oper- ate without licenses because there is a state law no saloon shall be per- mitted to operate within two miles of any town or city. They have been permitted to exist, however, in St. Clair County, in violation of the law, by the indulgence of grandjuries, circuit judges and other officials. The Bast St. Louis officials believe that they have a right, under the, law, to compel these saloons to close the same as those within the city limits and they were notified to that effect. /

An Unexpected Blow. There was consternation when the notices were served. The unlicensed saloons beyond the city’s borders had been counting upon doing a big busi- ness Sunday. Several of them were hastily enlarging their places in an- ticipation of a rush. All of them had engaged extra bartenders. When the notices were served work of this kind stopped. Those which are_located within the two-mile limit, upon whom notices were served, are: National Hotel. Exchange Bar, George Reithman, James O'Reilly, Barney B. Williams, James Kyle, Robert Bennett, Joseph Geppert, James Moore, Joseph Peters, The Yellow Dog Saloon, and several small saloons on the banks of Pittsburg Lake. Several unlicensed saloons on Pitts- burg Lake, just beyond Winstanley Park, were closed up a week ago by State’s Attorney Tecklenburg of St. Clair County and he gave notice at that time thit he would close up the rest of the umicensed places around East St. Louis if there was any complaint against them ard he might do so anyway. While there appears to be some doubt as to the authority of the East St. Louis police to arrest the keepers of unlicensed saloons about the borders who keep open on Sunday, it is thought that the keepers wili close up on Sunday in preference to being compelled to close up all the time by State's get Tecklenburg, which he promises would be the result. of the complaints against them if they were to attempt to keep open on Sun- day. With the saloons closed in East St. Louls and within the two-mile radius it is feared that conditions in the rest of the county, which corresponds to Bt. Louis County on the west side of the river, will be much worse than in St. Louts County, unless the county author- ities take action. Aldermen Issue Statement. The Citizens’ Party Aldermen of East St. Louis, upon whom Mayor Cook has placed the responsibility for the en- forcement of the Sunday closing. law, issued the following statement last night: “To the Public: We see that Mayor Cook has issued a proclamation to the, effect that all saloons sball hereafter cloged on nday during his term of office and that the reason for this announcement is that under an ordinance recentiy passed by the City Council, his police s been so much ueed that he can- ely allow saloona to run on Sunday. “We canno the Mayor In his action, him to decide.

WIRE-TAPPING CHARGE

Mr, Price Denies Connection With the Price Commis- sion Company. HE KNOWS OF NO WRONG

Lahey’s Arrest Is Said to Be Due to Statements Made by Lineman. y

Thomas P. Lahey, an employe of the T. E. Price Commission Co., and floor trader for that firm on the Merchants’ Exchange, is held under $800 bond to answer a charge of wire-tapping, as a result of certain representations made to the police by Henry Stanley, a line- man of the Postal Telegraph Co., whv is accused of a similar offense. It is understood at the Four Courts that Stanley has confessed his part in the scheme whereby the telegraph wires from the regular stock and grain ex- e¢hanges were tapped in order to furnish quotations io the bucket shops. Transactions in the bucket shops are ’ based on legitimate stock and grain © ~ quotations, but the actual stock or mar- a ket commodity is neither bought nor gold in the market and the record of a purchase or sale is usually confided to the bucket shop making it. “Lahey has been employed for 15 years by the T. E. Price Commission Co, He lives at 1818 Wagoner place. Mr. Price, who qualified as his surety, said to a Pest-Dispatch reporter last night that he knew nothing .of the charges against Lahey, nor had he heard of the operations of alleged wire- tappers in St. Louis. “T have known Tom Lahey since he ‘Was a boy and I have the utmost confi- dence in him,” said Mr. Price. “He assures me that he is innocent of this charge and he will ask a speedy trial to prove his innocence.” ‘Have you any connection with the Price Commission Co., at Third and Pine streets?’’ Mr. Price was asked. Denies Firm Connection. » “None whatever,” he answered. “The Price Commission Co. is conducted by Burtis Price.” ‘fhe city directory designates Burtis Price as secretary of the Price Com- mission Co. The names of the president or other officers of the firm are not stated. ._The concern is not a member of the Merchants’ Exchange.

Maybe the Garden Season Will End With a Wild West Roping Exhibition.

_“~— de “ SUBURBAN—Herbert Kelcey and Effie Shan- non, America’s famous co-stars of polite comedy, begin a two weeks’ engagement at the Suburban this evening in Olyde Fitch’s popular vlay of contemporary manters, ‘‘The Moth and the Flame.’’ Up to the present, elsewhere and at the Suburban, this play has not been available for summer use. As in the case of Amelia Bingham, who last night closed a high- ly successful five weeks at the northwest theater, Kelcey and Shannon appear for the first time under sumnier theater auspices and at. prices which, in comparison with those of the regular season, must be termed popular. Notwithstanding the extraordinary expense of bringing such stars to St. Louis and maintainp- ing a high-class company for results have proved the wisdom and justified ‘sie enterprise of the EFyric “nitse et Co.., whose activities this swmmer are putting an entirely new aspect upon local theatricals. The stock company that bas been seen at the Suburban since the opening day May 20, will continue “in the support of Kelcey and Shan- non, and also of Maud Fealey, who follows the present stars early in August. As an item of news, it may be said that the members ot the company not under contract before they came here, will be retained next year and added to as occasion may warrant. ‘“‘The Moth and the Flame,’’ tonight's open- ing bill at the Suburban, is in Clyde Fitch's best vein. Mr. Kelcey is in his favorite part of Edward Fletcher, and that clever charac- ter portrarer. Walter kidwords. has the part of Douglas Khodes. Adelyn Wesley. the popular *‘character woman’’ of the Suburban stock, ap- ee as Mrs, Lorrimer; the leading lady. Miss zisle Leigh, plays Jeannette Gross, and the Misses Verla Landers, Florence Fisher, Ma‘ie- leine Lewis, Elsie Fowler, May Davis, Blanche Walton and Etbel Valentine present soc lay figures. Walter Gilbert, the best year comedian that ever came to this city, the Johnstone and J. Gordon Edwards is con- genially cast as the clergyman in the trying church-wedding scene. Costumes and scenery in ‘keeping with the recognized Suburban stand- art will be provided. and the rehearsals, in progress since last Monday morning, foretell @ smooth initial performance. For the second week of Kelcey-Shannon the offering is Martha Morton's fine play, ‘‘Her Lord and Master,’’ In which Miss Shannon has achieved her best success. There will the usual matinees on Tuesday, Thursday aud Saturday. Following the Kelcey-Shannon engagement comes Miss Maud Fealey. one of the most beautiful of America’s younger generation of stage women, in a four-weeks’ engagement, consisting of presentations of ‘‘The Little Miniater,’’ ‘‘Barbata fF rietchie.’’ ‘Mistress Nell” and “*The Royal Family.’’ The season as now arranged, is to close with a sumptuous scenic and sartorial revival of ‘‘Virginius, with Mr. Walter Edwards in the title part. 7 we their support, DELMAR.—“‘El Capitan’ will go on at Del- mar Garden this week commencing with mat- inee and evening performances today.

Bertha Shalek, formerly prima donna With “Dolly Varden,’ and last season with ‘‘Happyland,’’ has signed a contract with John Cort to sing the leading con- tralto and soubrette role with the Stew- art Opera Company for three years. For the coming season the repertoire will eomprise ‘‘Babette,”’ “Two Roses,’’ ‘‘Fatinitza’’ and ‘‘Dorothy.’’ Miss Shalek is a niece of Mr. Albert A. Aal of St. Louis. Arnold Daly may now produce Bern- ard Shaw’s “Mrs. Warren's Profes- sion” in New York without let or hindrance if he so desires. The Court of Special Session last week officially decided that Mr. Daly did nothing to cffend public taste in presenting the much discussed play at the Garrick Theater, New York, last fall. It will be remembered that the run was cut short after the first performance. It is not known whether Mr. Daly will revive “Mrs. Warren's Profession” next season or not as he is abroad and weer not been heard from on the sub- ect, Mrs. Sarah Cowell Le Moyne in a production of Browning’s famous epi- sodic play, “Pippa Passes,’’ will be One of the unique and interesting at- tractions that will play the Shubert houses next season. The play will be staged under the personal @irection of Mrs. Le Moyne and Henry Miller. They have some ideas that are expect- ed to render the drama as interesting on the stage as it long has been in the library. John Cort has engaged Harrington Reynolds, David R. Young, Jack Web- ster. Maurice Costello and Blanche Douglas, to support Maude Fealy for her forthcoming starring tour in ‘“‘The Illusion of Beatrice,”’ the new Martha Morton poner: Miss Fealy will be the Suburban Park star following Herbert Kelcey and Effie Shannon. It is definitely announced that Flor- ence Roberts will be seen in “‘Gioconda’”’ next season. Miss Roberts gave the first English production of the D’Annun- zio play in San Francisco in 19M. Duse is the only other actress who has ever played it in this country. | The Messrs. Shubert have ended thelr first year as independent managers by securing control of the largest and most celebrated playhouse in America, the New York Hippodrome. In conjunction with M. A. Anderson of Cincinnati, Lee and J. J. Shubert have leased that mam- moth amusement’ temple for a long term of years and will take possession of it at once. They will open the Hip- podrome on Labor Day (Sept. 3), with a spectacle that will be on as gorgeous a scale as the size and fame of the house demands. Lena Ashwell in “The Shulamite” wHl begin her first American engage- ment at the Garrick Theater, Chicago, on Oct. 15. She will bring with her the entire company now supporting her in the powerful drama now playing at the voy Theater, London. The com- pony includes Henry Ainley. who will e remembered as leading man with Maude Adams in “The Pretty Sister of Jose,”” and Norman McKinnel, who is considereq one of the strongest char- acter actors in London. . Ainley has been pronounced the handsomest actor on the English stage.

Personally Dr. Neitzel is one of the most delightful of men. Bernhard Ulrich, the musical mana- ger, announces that Camillo S§Saint- Saens, the world-renowned composer, conductor and pianist, will visit Amer- ica this coming winter. American im- pressarios have tempted Saint-Saens the past 25 years with offers to visii this country, but always without suc: cess. Mr. Ulrich regrets that the eml- nent Frenchman will contract for only 20 appearances, so that only the prin- cipal cities will have the opportunity et hearing the greatest musician that France has ever produced. M. Sant- Saens’ operas and other musical works are known in all civilized countries, but as a pianist he will be new to Americans. Many of the great pianists of the present generation rectived their finishing touches from this celebrity and all proclaim him the master of the keyboard. All the leading symphony orchestras of the country will invite Saint-Saens io conduct his own compo- sitions and ii: rome of the cities he will interpret nis cwn pianoforte concertos with orchestra. One of the famous military bands of the English Army, the Red Hussars of Northumberland, stationed at Newcas- tle, comes to this country in October for a brief concert tour. The organiza- tion is under the leadership of Lieut. H. G. Amers, who has the distinction of being the youngest banmaster in the service holding King Edward's commis- sion. It is said that Lieut. Amers is a conductor of wonderful snap and anima- tion, full of musical fire and enthusi- asm. He has to his credit a long list of continental suecesses such as no other British bandmaster has ever achieved. Harrison Greytiske has engaged Leon- ard Shepherd as an additional member of the Manhattan company to support Mrs. Fiske next season in the new comedy by Langdon Mitchell, “The New York Idea.’’ Mr. Shepherd is re- membered as the Trivulzio in “Monna Vanna,” in support of Bertha Kalich last seaSon, and he also appeared prominently with that star in the few performances of ‘Therese Raquin,” which Mr. Fiske arranged in various cities to illustrate the exceptional gifts of Madame Kalich in modern emotional work. Mr. Fiske will again present Madame Kalich the coming season in a new modern play, and with a company up to the standard set for her initial ap- pedrance a8 an American star under his management, When E.

The syndicate has opened ita London branch at 3% Southampton § street, Strand, and at the Savoy Court Mare Klaw, senior member of the firm, has taken apartments for the summer to keep his eye open for English plums that may be captured for the American market. Compared with a few other American managers now in London, the syndicate has not drawn heavily on the English stage for next season. Mr. Klaw is not of a retiring disposition when a prom- ising business trick is to be turned, so it may be acceptéd as reasonable that he has not found in London as attract- ive material as native dramatists in America have to offer. He admits as much, and does not express himself optimistically regarding the present condition of the English stage. “The taste of Englishmen, as dis- played in the theater,” he said, “runs entirely to musical comedy. The reason may be that London is growing more and more to regard the theater as a re- laxation and diversion, or else there is such a dearth of dramatists and plays that it is impossible for managers to procure legitimate works. In my opin- ion the only real successes am dramas now in sight are ‘His House in Order,’ ‘Raffles’ and ‘Col.onel Newcome,’ and of these ‘Raffles’ has had its day in America. ‘The trouble with the English dra- matists seems to be that they are all trying to write comedies of manhers, and their ideas of ‘manners’ are con- fined exclusively to bridge and r- ettes. They have harped upon these two vetty vices until the mere men- tion of them has me nauseating. “But English audiences are the most patient in the world: They applaud much and complain little. The way they have enduped the ineincere and su- perficial society vlays proves that 84 Also possess the qualities out of whi martyrs are made. English Field Not Inviting. “I do not think the field for theater t building or theatrical speculation is as to good in England as in America, They ogue. ° have good actors, to be sure, but so ( ndic have we in America. In musical com- edy the English showgirl is a leaden- footed impossibility, without chio or animation, but, on the other hand, the daneérs and comedians are the finest in the world. In legitimate produc- tions I think the English ingenue ac- tresses are cleverer than ours, and they are surely more numerous, “One of the most interesting of the Klaw & Erlanger productions in New York next autumn will be George Ber- nard Shaw’s “Caesar and Cleopatra,” in which Forbes Robertson Mijss Gertrude Eliott are to appear. Mr. Shaw, who seems to be the most sunny dispositioned and shrewdest business man I ever met among playwrights, in spite of his general reputation for ec- centricity, expresses himself as im- mensely pleased with the arrangoment. The only condition on which he would allow the play to be produced in Amer- ica wag that Mr. Robertson should ap- pear as Caesar and Miss Elliott as Cleopatra. They will,open at the New Amsterdam Theater either on Oct. 22 or Oct. 29, and when the curtain up New York will see the finest produc- tion of a Shaw play ever attempted in America. All the costumes are being designed here by Percy Anderson. ‘T also have an arrangement with George Edwardes for first call on all the musical plays produced at the Galety Theater and on all other pro- ductions made by him personally, ex- cept those brought out at Daly’s Lel- cester Square Theater. ‘| also have an understanding with Frank Curzon, by which my firm will produce some of his plays in Ameri- ca. We are also discussing the ad- visnbilitvy of bringing John fod Sousa’s opera, “The Free Lance,” wit its original New York cast to London for a run beginning next 8 er.

Littlefield with President Samuel Gompers of the American Wederation of Labor and D. J. McGillicuddy the Democratic nominee for Congress in Second District, ig one of national importance. McGillicuddy has told his friends that he will work day and night to win and President Gompers has told McGillicuddy that he will do all he can to defeat Littlefield. General Organizer Reid of the Fed- eration, and personal representative of President Gompers, has visited the labor centers in the district, making arrangements for the coming of Gompers and other prominent labor advocates. Gompers will open his campaign in Lewiston on August 18 and will speak in all of the places of any size in the district. But Reid denies emphatically that there is any alliance between |» Gompers and McGillicuddy. Just how much the labor agitation will help McGillicuddy is being dis- cussed in political circles, As a mat- ter of fact it is stated the large majority of the labor vote in the district is naturally Democratic. Congressman Littlefield does not appear frightened. He is touring the district in an autombile, visiting all the towns and riding almost night and day. He says he is ready to meet Gompers and all the charges he has to make. He_ reports having found things in satisfactory ‘ condi- tion. He expects to sweep the dis- trict by a uy majority. While there is still a little friction the Democratic party in several the cities already a great deal as been done to unite the factions. Free

TO SETTLE Hn William Flewelyn Saunders Would Boom Missouri in New York. THINKS BUREAU NEEDED

He Would Have Agent Work Among Arrivals From Foreign Lands.

HAS MADE INVESTIGATION 7 Secretary of St. Louis Business Men’s League Gives Figures. William Fiewelyn Saunders, secretary of the St. Louis Business Men’s League, who is in New York trying to find out why more immigrants do not come to Missouri and the Southwest, has reached the conclusion that the State could very largely increase its immigration by strongly reinforcing the efforts of the railways, establishing a bureau in New York and maintaining it on a basis of thorough efficiency for several years. He says: “The railway work of this kind being done here now is good, as far as I know, but the results would be much greater if the states would help through their immigration bureaus, Missouri should take the lead in this by appro- priating enough money to enable its im- migration bureau to establish an office in New York and have in charge of it a man of high intelligence, active and a linguist. The direct results from this work would be small at first, hardly appreciable, but in two years they would begin to show. “This agent should spend part of his time on Ellis Island, but most of it in New York itself, around the boarding houses where the immigrants go when they first ldnd. One family sent to a town brings another, and the little col- onies do their own recruiting. One Family Brings Five. “IT spent some time experimenting with immigrants on Ellis Island my- self and I found few of those with whom I talked who had not already chosen their destination; in fact, most of them had done this before they sailed. Those who have not, want to get ashore and look around a bit before they decide and these will have to be followed up by the immi- gration agent. But he could safely calculate that every family he per- suaded finally to settle in the State would mean five within a few years.” Mr. Saunders says he does not know what the Business Men’s League will do with the information he will bring to it. He will make a report and possibly recommendations and the or- Sanization will determine if in addi- tion to its principal work of promot- ing the business interests of St. Louis it will urge upon Gov. Folk any spe- cial action in this matter of securing immigration for Missouri. Mr. Saunders finds that during the year ending with the beginning of the present month the steamships landed 880,543 immigrants at Ellis Is- land, and of these only 13,796 went to Missouri. He has spent the greater part of the past week on Ellis Island, visiting the Immigrant Labor Bureau at the United States barge office, and mak- ing his png it still more thorough by a tour of the immigrant boarding houses of New York. Fair Showing After All. While the thirteen thousand immi- grants who went to Missouri last year seem at first glance to be small, yet it {s quite a large part of the number left after the enormous toll New York laid on the strangers, 353,792, but New York even did not keep these, for more than 150,000 of them left the city for other States within less than a month after they landed. Pennsylvania got the next largest number of the immi- grants, 162,309, and it is believed that most of these stayed in that State. L- linois was third with 65,494, most of whom went to Chicago and were thence distributed to other places. New Jersey was fourth with 56,641, Massachusetts fifth, receiving 89,509, Ohio sixth with $7,415, Connecticut seventh with 26,737, Michigan eighth with 17,210, and Mis- souri’s 138,796 made it ninth. Wiscon-

‘sin followed with 13,501, California 12,- 488, and Minnesota 9915. All of the States of the South, includ- ing Alabama, Florida, Georgia, Arkan- gas, Kentucky, Maryland, Mississippi, Louisiana, North and South Carolina, West Virginia, Virginia, Texas and Tennessee had, put together only 20,634, and Oklahoma and Indian Territory only WELLS NOT A PARTNER. Connection With Water Com- Denied in Affidavit. any. pn erry Francis, in an affidavit filed yesterday in the Circuit Court at Clayto declared that Mayor Wells has ao interest in the @est St. Louis Water and Light Co., as alleged inethe petition of Charles Reyburn of St.

Louis County, who is seeking an in- junction to restrain the city from de- priving county residents of service from the city water mains. It wags also alleged in the petition that the Mayor was in a conspiracy with D. R. Francis, W. P. Kennett, and the water company, to compel county residents to take water from the company. Depositions, in which Mr. Reyburn admitted that his alle- gations were based on hearsay, were also filed. The application for a tem- porary injunction was withdrawn by Reyburn’s attorney, with the explana- tion that a like injunction had been granted in St. Louis, Secretary Kennett of the water com- pany exhibited the stock books to show that the Mayor held no stock. A continuance was granted to the September term on request of Rey- burn’s attorney.

ciation’s investigation shows the tota' income in the house is only $1.80 a week. So there’s the story of one group of mothers. The pain of listening to the testimonials is spared the reader. Suf- fice it to say the mothers, all of them, were so brimful of praise for the work of the Post-Dispatch, the mission and the milk commission they gathered to give vent to their thoughts. These mothers are fine, good, hard- | working mothers. But they are not poor mothers, remember that. They pay for every bottle of milk they get. Even so, they only pay for the actual cost of

As one entered the rooms of the Sloan Mission Home in Hickory street one saw 22 healthy babies, most them working the business end of a bot- tle of sterilized milk vigorously. They ‘were bPMght babies, happy babies. Their mothers were beaming with smiles as they looked upon their children nestled in arms. " And the “Little Mother’ was there, of’

father an invalid. But to get back to that mothers’ meeting at the mission. The many mothers in the neighborhood who get the Pure Milk Commission’s sterilized milk for their babies decided to have a mothers’ meeting. They gathered at the mission house Thursday to tell their experiences. Honestly, it would read | ter because her mother is a cripple and and the hire of men to prepare and de- liver the milk.

Just before the close of Amelia Bing- ham’s engagement at the Suburban Theater last night, and the start of her automobile race against time to New York, that actress signed a contract with Mr. Sol N. Oppenheimer, president of the Lyric Amusement Co., which will have the effect of bringing her back to St. Louse next summer as the bright particular star of the Suburban season. The contract was for an engagement of five weeks, and the Bingham produc- tions during that period will include the new play, “The Rose of St. Pierre,” which Miss Bingham is to produce for the first time in New York this fall, opening at the Knickerbocker Theater on Sept. 15. In addition, ‘Mme. Sans Gene”’ and “The Climbers” will also be produced, and two new plays yet to be selected. Miss Bingham’s St. Louis sea- son now just closed has been so suc- cessful that the Suburban management confidently expect great things from her St. Louis engagement next summer. At 5 o'clock this morning Miss Bing- ham, accompanied by Mr. Lioyd Bing- ham, her husband, was billed to leave St. Louis in her new automobile, start- ing from the Washington Hotel, for her race against time to New York. She confidently expects to break the St. Louls-New York record and arrive in New York on Tuesday morning, her auto car having been put in the best possible racing shape, and the chauf- feur engaged for the run being recom- mended to her as a man_ thoroughly qualified to make such a race to the best advantage. ‘ It was calculated yesterd that the closing performance of ‘Mrs. ck"’ at the Suburban would end about 14:30 last After that, Miss Bingham was man-

Then she and Mr. Bingham would onee to their hotel, from which tomobile race to New York woul three hours later. It was expecte quite a large crowd of her St. friends and admirers would assemble to bid Miss Bingham good-by at that time. It is now announced by the Suburban management that the final offering of Maude Fealy, who follows Kelcey and Shannon at the Suburban Theater, will be “The Christian.” For her four weeks’ engagement, therefore, she will offer “The Little Minister,” “Barbara Frietchie,’’ ““Mistress Nell’ and “The Christian,” ard the Suburban season will then close with an ambitious revi- val of “Virginius” by the excellent Suburban stock company, Mr. Walter Edwards appearing in the title role.

Much St. Louis Property Owned by Kansas Politi- clan. Dr. Shaw F. Neely, former St. Louis- an, pioneer Kansas politician, newspa- per man and ex-army surgeon, who was four terms Democratic Mayor of Leav- ;enworth and United States Marshal for 1 the Eastern District of Kansas during Joly 7—Pors White, ad Cleveland's second administration, died at his hdme in Leavenworth Saturday of neuralgia of the heart, at the age of 71. Dr. Neely was a Pennsylvanian by birth, but went to Kansas soon after the Civil War, through which he served as a surgeon in the Union Army. In the early 80’s he was elected Democratic Mayor of Leavenworth on a reform ticket, after a campaign that has become historic in Western politics. It was then that Dr. Neely became acquainted with Justice Brewer of the United States Su- preme Court, who was then a Kansas awyer. The friendship formed then lasted until the Doctor's death. During the great land boom which closed that decade, Dr. Neely made much money and abandoned the prac- tice of medicine to go Into real estate. Coming to 8t. Louis in the early 90's with the Scott brothers of Kansas City, he was one of the few who saw and took advantage of the ‘great future’ then opening for St. Louis suburban property. His holdings in St. Louis are said to have been extensive. At the time of his death there was pending before the House of Delegates an ordinance to en- large Tower Grove: Park by the pur- chase of adjoining property, a consid- DR. NEELY DIES.

The young woman says her wedding to Enlow was to have been celebrated a week ago last Thursday, two days after the man was last seen by her. Enlow was seen at a local tailoring establish- ment, where he ordered his wedding suit, but no one has been found who has since* seen him. Race Quarrel Among Priosners.

One of the most widely known men in Kan- sas, Dr. Neely had been a familiar fig- ure for years in the corridors of the Southern Hotel, where he invariably stopped when in St. Louis. He was over six feet tall, erect and broad of shoul- der and with wide-rimmed slouch hat was a typical Kansan.

BIGGER THAN LAST YEAR Still Money Is Not Sufficient Yet to Finance the Com- ing Great Harvest. Special to the Post-Dispatch. NEW YORK, July 21.—The Evening Post, in its weekly review of the mgr- kets, says today: Wall Street—Today’s during the week was in the neighbor- hood of $6,000,000. This morning’s state- ment gives $11,762,000 as the figure of the increase. However this may be, the statement showed a condition of affairs which does not as yet exist. The large reported increase in re- serves offset a $9,400,000 loan expansion— the first increase since the middle of June, and doubtless mainly attributa- | ble to the week’s advance in stocks. The increased surplus reserve left by this double movement was not only the largest reported in any month this year, but has not been paralleled except for a single week since February, 1905. It is more than four millions larger than at the corresponding date last year. This is an interesting fact in the sit- uation, especially if we are to receive ten or twenty millions more gold in the next few weeks. There was sufficient need for the “nursing’’ of New York's surplus reserve. The returns of the country’s 6000 national banks, published at Washington this week, showed that of the $307,000,000 increase in loans over the same date last year, $223,000,000 came in the South and Central West. Against an increase of $170,000,000 in deposits li- abilities to individuals alone, this same section reports for the period only $7,- 000,000 gain in cash. This does not sug- gest an adequate equipment to finance the coming great harvest with the in- terior’s own bank resources. The day’s stock market requires no special comment; it was quiet and firm, with no developments of inter- est; The list as a whole closed at fractional advances. Grain Slightiy Lower. Grain—Barring a slight upturn at the outset, the general tendency in.-all domestic wheat markets early in the week was downward: Much of the time there was an abgence of anima- tion and excitement. Consequently the fluctuations were confined to a nar- row compass. It appeared evident, therefore, that markets were con- trolled largely, if not wholly, by the legitimate laws of supply and demand. In short, there was little to indicate that large professional operators were actively interested in the market, there being no signs of manipulation, for which conservative traders were extremely thankful. In the malian, trading was confined to smail scalping operations or to selling against new wheat moving from the interior, and therefore there was little or nothing to interfere with the healthy progress of trade. This is especially gratifying at this time, be- cause the situation seems to be un- commonly favorable for the steady Srowth of business under satisfactory auspices. In a word, the prospect has been growing brighter for an appre- clable enlargement of trade for ex- port account. Advices from Europe have been decidedly encouraging, cable reports showing an advancing tendency most of the time, which was chargeable partly to the much lighter world’s shipments and the resultant ed decrease in the quantity on pass- Last week the total put afloat by all expotring countries was 6,000,000 bush- els in rovnd figures, which is 4,000,000 below the estimated weekly import re- quirements. Pigeon hepa unless the weekly exports quickly show a material enlargement, it is fair to presume that European importers will speedily be- come uneasy anad will then doubtless begin to take our wheat with far great- er freedom. All the evidence to hand lately goes to demonstrate that the crop on the Continent is decidedly short as contrasted with last year. According to re aoe te to anh ,Department of ee \ © Gceficiency amounts to fu 150,000,000 bushels, which makes it rea sonable to su e that Western Eu- ro will soon be compelled to look to this country for much larger quantities of wheat and flour than in the preced- ing onee year. hrashing of winter wheat has made rapid progress northward and almost everywhere the outcome is satisfactory, the grain proving of exceptional dry- ness and of good weight. Therefore re- ceipts at primary points have been fairly heavy and an unusually large percentage has been fit to inspect into contract grades. As a natutal result, ee ripe ¥ a nen wheat have not a Oo se the e freely aaniani ic future deliveries numerous country points west of the Mississippi River ner wheat has been seliing at slightly under 75’cents, which nearly all well-to-do farmers are reluctant to accept, and as they are financially strong, it igs probable that they will wait until later in the season before thrashing. The declining tendency was checked partly by further and more emphatic reports respecting the black rust in the Northwest, and especially in South kota. ese reports .have in some instances come from trustworthy sources, but it is generally agreed that the rust h appeared only in isolated spots. Therefore, the opinion obtains among the unprejudh that little injury will result unless the disease should spread over a wider area, Cotton Was Weak. - Cotton—After ruling frm through- outthe first half of the week, ° the ae merket showed signs of wav- ering on Thursday o to be a movertent ot eee see pp _ agen their olding of the new crop options,. and put out fresh hedge on thé old crop. ices yest polnts further petty broke 8 to 10 der bearis : ’ neers.

CORN AND OATS LOWER

Favorable Weather Conditions Are Reflected in Both These Grains, Reports of “black rust” damage in the spring wheat territory caused buy- ing in wheat futures in the early week, but on denials by well-known crop authorities that the damage has been severe prices dropped off sharply and the week’s close showed the bears with a considerable advantage. Outside of the Northwest position there was little in the situation on which to base a decided ty ogg move- ment. Weather conditions in the win- ter wheat section continue ideal for the harvest, and the grain is of an ex- cellent quality. Farmers on .the other hand show little inclination to market their grain on the present decline, and this has a tendency to make the pres- sure of offerings iess than is usual at this time of the year. The foreign situation shows little im- provement from the export standpoint although prices have reached several eae in the neighborhood of an export asis. European markets, however, have dis- played decided firmness for some time past, even when American markets were most depressed. The importin markets abroad are evincing a grea deal of uneasiness over the crop and Olitical situation in Russia, and the oreign financial centers are agitated over the political news from that couh- try. Shipments from exporting coun- tries continue so much below European requirements that the amount of ocefin passage steadily and largely decreases and anything that threatens to cut off such a large exporter as is Russia has a bullish effect on importing Europe. In Southwestern Russia, where the harvest should be progressing, rains have been falling for nearly two weeks, and Liverpool reports an absence of offerings from Russia. The Argentine crop has been having its troubles also, rains hawng been as lacking in the South American country as they have been too plentiful in Russia. The Old Crop. Figures. obtainable on supplies of old crop, carried over to the 1906 crop, and those that can be estimated closely, as, for instance, the exports on the 1906 crop, enables one to arrive at the prob- able domestic requirements on the 1906 crop. Besides the crop of 692,979,000 bu that was secured last year, there was carried over 54,278,000 bu in available supplies and on the farms, making 4 total of 747,000,000 bu to meet 12 months’ requirements. When the crop year of 1906-7 opened on July 1 last, there was carried over in available supplies and on the farms about 92,000,000 bu, indicating that 5,- 000,000 bu of the 1905 crop had gone out of sight. Allowing for 98,000,000 bu ex- ported in flour and wheat, the domestic requirements on the 1905 crop are indi- cated to have been 657,000,000 bu, and al- lowing for 74,000,000 bu seeded to winter and spring wheat, domestic consump- tion must have been something over 480,000,000 bu. Bstimating the 1906 crop at 710,000,000 bu, and adding thereto the 92,000,000 bu of old crop carried over, this country has 802,000,000 bu to meet 12 months’ re- quirements. If domestic requirements for bread and seed do not exceed those on the 1905 crop, or say 657,000,000 bu, this country can spare 150,000,000 bu >for export, and carry over as large reserves of the 1906 as of the 19% crop. These figures, of course, depend. upon whether the spring wheat crop bears out its July 1 promise. he corn market showed a weaker range in the late trading on the con- tinued. excellent weather conditions in the West and Southwest. This, howev- er, is the critical period on the crop and traders are not inclined to take the bear side gressively until absolutely as- sured that the yield is to be a large one. Farmers and other country holders of corn are not willing to sell while the crop’ is threatened with serious damage, and little old corn could be bought in the country during the drouth seare, so that the markets are feeling the effects of small receipts. Stocks in store are being drawn upon to meet the demands from _§ sections that depend upon the West at this season of the year, and visible,sup- plies will-shortly begin to show the ef- fect of the drafts made upon the mar- kets’ stocks in decreases in their ele- vator holdings, and consequently in the official visible. The crop of rye this year promises to be the third largest ever raised. The recent condition of 91.3 for winter rye indicates a yield of 31,381,000 bu. Last year’s total crop was 27,616,000 bu, and the largest crop was 36,000,000 bu in 1891. Oats were easier-on more encouraging reports from the growing sections and the belief that the recent damage re- peer are exaggerated. Longs were sell- ng some grain and the demand was light at all times. The estimaed world’s shipments of wheat for Monday are for about 6,800;000 bu, of which quantity Europe will take about 5,290,000 bu. The actual shipments last week were 6,086,000 bu,“and a year ago 9,291,000 bu. Arrivals of breadstuff into the United Kingdom during .the past week will aggregate about 4000 bu.

_ however, that a large amount of the selling yesterday was for short ac- count by Wall street and local and New Orleans bears, who were en- couraged to increase their lines by the bad news from Russia and Lon- on. Thus recent events appear to have placed the market in a comparatively weak position in so farias the specu- lative position of the option list is con- cerned. ‘Therefore, it would not be sur- prising to see a continuance of irregu- larity and weakn with perhaps sharper bear attac and somewhat lower prices tomporarily at least in both the old and new crop options, - The spot situation, however, remains very strong, not only In this country but also in Bu- rope, and ee are diminishing so rapidly that the amount of American cotton which will be left to be carried over into the new crop year on Sept. 1 will be much smaller than the trade had be g on a month or two the South res ae ma board receiving points.

Local Securities Meet Support After a Rather Severe Decline. BY R. 0. JOHNSON. A flight of shorts took place on the the week and prices rose very sharply from the recent low level. The buying appeared following the announcement of the regular quarterly dividend on Amalgamated Copper, after the circula- tion of the report for several weeks that the payment was to be advanced to 8 per cent. Recently all news on Wall street has been bad news and liquidation de- veloped on its publication, but on the announcement of the Copper dividend selling failed to ap , the shorts took fright, and assisted by some active bid- ding by insfders carried the list up rap- idly against themselves. There has been no pronounced change in the general market situation and it is hard to see how at the present period an upward movement of large proportions can be promulgated. The demestic situation, on the whole, as far es surface conditions are con- cerned, continues favorable. The crup outlook, if anything, brightened, in spite ci exaggerated ‘“‘black rust” re- orts in tie spring wheat territory, wr he corn crop made excellent progress under «lmest ideal weather conditions, The winter wheat harvest is nearing completion and the yield will compare very éavorably with last year’s, and is of excelient quality. Business and industrial returns seom to »ncicate that the fear prevailing in c>rtain well-informed market quarier., that a business reaction is due, is un- founded, and preparations for {fall trade are well above the average of a year ago. Railroad earnings a con- tinue to show phenomenal increascs over those of a year ago, and traffic managers speak confidently of the fu- ture. The money market is gradually ad- justing itself, through the continued g0ld imports, the recent contraction of crédits in the stock market, the arrival ef gold from Alaska and the increasca circulation that will be provided wulti- mutely through the Panama bor issue. In the face of all these facturs, tiiat ordinarily make for wens markets, however, there is a teeling of unrest In the financial wor d, and an abSolute- ly apathetic demand from pubiic scurces for securities. The speculative public have been fcoled once too often in the past few raerths. If they sell short, as sume few of tlem’do, they are forced into cov- erirg. If they puy, as most of them do, they have invariably scen the movement develop into a soda-watcr boom: which soon fizzles out and leaves tnem stranded higher up. They havs been whip-sawed both ways gnd con- sequently are getting daily more im- pressed with the idea that Wall street was made to separate them from their money, not to add to it. Public Apathetic. With ‘this apathy on the part of the public, it is hard to see how any pro- nounced rise can be sustained, for those of the public who already have stocks on hand—and there are many—have them higher i are waiting to get, even to sell. ithout the public, who’ will absorb this stock on the way up? Not the insiders. Nay, nay. They have all they want on hand now, as is evi- denced by the efforts being made by insiders to make their holdings at- tractive by paying increased dividends in the face of a very uncertain market outlook, They do not want any more stocks, that is certain. Coupled with this lack of public buy- ing, without which a market cannot be sustained, we still have an’ adverse for- eign political situation, with its uncer- tainties, hanging over the bourses, the near approach of the fall elections, the steadily increasing wave of corporation investigations and prose- cutions and the near approach of a presidential campaign, which involves many uncertainties from the stock mar- ket standpoint. Any one of these factors is in itself sufficierft to keep the market in an un- certain position for a long time to come and eliminate almost entirely the pos- sibility of a big public buying move- ment. Unless this public buying comes, it is only a question of time before the con- gestion that exists in the market from overloaded speculation pools and mar- ket syndicates, to say nothing of the uncertain position of many big under- writing syndicates, exerts itself, when liquidation will again be inevitable. It is also hard to understang how a distinct. betterment can take place in the securities market until some activ- ity develops in bonds, and the present congestion in this class of securities passes away. Any coming improve- ment In securities is invariably shown first in bonds, especially when the in- vestment and speculative public have been in an apathetic mood for a long time, a condition that exists now. An investment demand first develops for high-grade bonds, then extends to the more speculative issues, and as prices rise to a level less attractive to buyers the demand gradually drifts over into the stock market. Now we have syndicates in all classes of investment and speculative bonds erying for a market for their holdings, many of which are vastly more attract- ive to investors than many of the high- priced securities. Until this phase of the market changes and a more broad and active demand for bonds develops it is useless to look for a vast improve- ment In speculative stocks. A sketch of the transactions day by day on the §tock Exchange last week will convey a fairly accurate impression of the enthusiasm prevailing in that quarter of the market.

When a summer invoice was made at a Bowery Salvation Army post in New York City a few days ago, it was dis- covered that the reclamation of the Bowery bum costs about $21, with all extras. The Post-Dispatch corre- spondents in other cities were invited to obtain similar estimates, with the following result: Cincinnati, O., July 21.—According to Adjutant C. B. Campbell, in charge of the Salvation Army Citadel in Cincin- nati, in the last two months 33. persons have been led to a better life and have professed conversion under the minis- tration of corps of the army under his! command. “Our expense for that time shows that the actual cost of making these con- verts was $9.75 each. .About one-tenth

of the —, we succeed in leading to a better life are children. The great majority of them are adults, who have led very bad, tempestuous lives with what the average citizen would proba- bly consider an astounding ignorance of the teachings of the gospel.” Indianapolis, Ind., July 21.—Ensign Winterbotham, the highest in author- ity here of Salvation Army workers, ‘went over the books for the last quar- ter, which, he said, was an average period. Of the 38 conversions “about one-half were drunkards or “bums.” The others were only ordinary persons of the middle or lower classes. It cost on an average about $1.50 per conver- sion. He included in the average os the expenses of salaries, rent, etc. said that the most of the converts re— mained faithful. “Bayal Syndicat F HOSTESS A} Americans in Plan That G IGUE rie | MEG.

AG AY. Ab, Sth y Georges, if free, will murder him and seeks to allevi- ate the latter’s wrath by arranging a marriage be- tween Eyelyn and the Count. To this the Count agrees, but Evelyn rejects him. Leaymg a band of gypsies on guard near Melbourne Hall under Zallony’s son, Odin goes away: The Earl begs Evelyn to save him by marrying Odin and the gypsy blood in her is irresistibly drawn to the man. Odin is to return in — months for a definite answer. Gavin Ord, a promising young architect, comes to Melbourne Hall to “restore” certain crumbling walls. He recognizes Evelyn as “Etta Romney,’’ but keeps her secret. He sees she is miserable, but cannot make. her explain the reason. He falls in love with hier.

leave the war out altogether next day. After all, the world takes nothing very seriously nowadays.” : | “Not even itself,” said Evelyn, almost as one speaking with regret. ‘We are growing too cynical even to deceive ourselves, and that used to be the most pleasant of all amuse- ments. But I agree with you about Mr. Ray. His face is an honest one, I wonder if it is | any drawback to him in his business.” Gavin laughed, wondering perhaps at the flippancy. of their talk and para desire to avoid any reference to that which had be- fallen them earlier in the day. By common consent they, would not speak of the accident ; each believed that some self-applause must at- tend the recital of it, and, save for a few brief words when Evelyn had recovered that morn- ret their a of silence remained un- shaken. Out here upon the n lawns, with the deep crimSon ‘tiedes of the dining room making a fairy scene behind them; out here where the night breeze was like’a breath of a tired Sleeper and the river below droned a lullaby, it was difficult enough to realize that death had been so recently their neighbor. Nor had they the desire to do so. This new inti- macy of association was a gracious gift to them both; and Evelyn, not less than he, understood that it might yet influence the years to come. “Honesty is always a drawback in certain professions,” Gavin said, as they wandered away from the open windows to the darker shades beneath the yews; “an honest doctor would be in danger of starving, while an hon- est photographer would certainly go to the Workhouse. Mr. Ray, at least, was honest in his desire to get rid of us. His remarks upon 8 beauty of the evening I found. quite super- uous.” “My father is-yery anxious to talk to him,” Evelyn said quickly. “I am sure you have re- marked his abstracted manner since you came here. A stranger’would notice such things at once. He is not well, and I fear is in great trouble, Mr. Ord. Perhaps he will tell Mr. Ray. I hope Sincerely that he will do so.” | “Then -he has said nothing to you, Lady “Evelyn ?” “He has said that which I find great diffi- culty in understanding. I wish it were other- wise. A woman is never able to estimate a man’s danger correctly. There are so many things of which she takes no account.” “When she will not permit a man to help her. I am asking you to tell me the story, you see. . It has been in my mind to do so for some hours past. Of course, I have known that there is astory. I should never regret coming to Melbourne Hall if I could be of the slight- est use to you, Lady Eyelyn. Will you not make me your friend ?” ; _ He drew her still farther apart, down to that very bridge he had crossed the night he came to the hall; that night of weird hallucination _and childish phantoms. Standing by the low ‘balustrade (she half-sitting upon it and watch- ing the eddies in the pool below), she spoke of Etta Romney and of a young girl whose dreams had sent her to London. “I had always delighted to live in a worid of my own making,” she said frankly. “There are days together when I believe myself to be someone élse and act and do that which I be- lieve they would have acted and done. The theater stood to me for a very heaven of self- deceptions. I read of it in books, dreamed of it in my. sleep, tried to picture’ it as it must be. Oh; yes. I have spoken my own plays aloud beneath the trees of this park so many days. I was Di Vernon, my Lady Beatrice, Viola, Des- demona, all the young girls you can name in the books. Sometimes I had the idea to run away and hide myself from everyone in that great picture land my vision showed to me. No one here could share my thoughts. My father adored me, but he has never understood me. To him, I am the child of the woman he loved beyond anything on earth. He guards me as though some change would come upon me if he ceased his vigilance. Then irony ap- pears and says it is my father who is chang- ing. I have been aware of it ever since Count Odin visited us, These wild men have brought misfortune to our house and God knows wher+ we are drifting. I thought at one time that if I married the Count that would be the end of everything. I can believe it no longer. My father is tempted to sacrifice me ; but he would regret it all his life if he did so. Can you blame me if I think of London again—serious- ly and forever ?” | - - Gavin answered her with difficulty. He knew so few of the facts of her story as yet that his common sense warned him to speak dedly. : _- “I should be the last to blame you,” he said slowly; “but surely there is an alternative? We take a desperate step when other and wiser roads are closed to-us. Let me try to understand it better. Count Qdin, you say, has some hold upon your father” —— Shei a PAGE.

in Bukharest many years’ ago. Do you know pre- cisely what his claim is?” “His father’s liberty. The old Chevalier Georges Odin is a prisoner in one of the mines on the bor- ders of the Black Sea. The Count declares that this is my father’s work. I cannot tell you if it be true’ - or false. If it is true, I will see that we leave no stone unturned to set Georges Odin free. I wish I could be so sure that his liberty will bring no peril upon my father.” “The men were enemies, then?” “I have understood as mach.

ward him. She resisted him a brief moment; then suddenly, as though disguise were idle, she lifted her lips to his and kissed him. : ~ “From myself,” she said; “save me from myself.” Chapter XXI. | ZALLONY’S SON. | AVIN permitted her to escape his arms when he heard the Earl calling to them from the Italian garden above the river. A sense of exultation, df ecstasy no words could measure, pos- — sessed him as he watched the slim, white-clad fig- ure, here disappearing, ,there showing itself again between the ramparts of the splendid tfees. She _ was his, henceforth and forever. All her beauty, her charm, her intellect, every grace of speech and man- ner had passed to his possession. This stately girl of whom the countryside spoke as of some wondrous divinity, she had promised to be- conle his wife; for him the warm kisses of her lips, the declared secrets of her eloquent eyes, the pas- sionate ardor of her embraces. Yesterday he would have called himself a madman to have dared the meanest of the hopes which now might. be regarded . with equanimity. Tonight he could recall them with that kind incredulity which ever attends the first hours of such an avowal as this. What aet or pur- pose of his life had brought him such a reward; why had she deemed him worthy? he asked himself. He was neither a vain man nor a fool. If he contem- plated his good fortune with a just trepidation, none the less he believed himself to merit it. She loved him, and henceforth might claim his life. This was the whole lesson of the first brief moments of delight. . : | : Gavin was far too excited to think of returning . to the castle; nor had he any wish to speak to the Earl until his own story presented itself to him in some reasonably plausible shape. Under other circumstances, he could have understood the anger and the impatience which such a declaration might bring upon him; but these he did not expect at Mel- bourne Hall. Robert Forester seemed to him rath- er an aristocrat by accident than by birth. He, himself, would not in any case consider the dignity of his own life and calling as beneath that of one whose ancestors had been the jest of London in the | days of the Stuarts. He had ‘the right of an hon- ored name, of considetable achievement, and of youth; and by these he claimed her. Moreover, the secrets of the hall were now his own; and he under- stood that the forgotten years stalked as ghosts through the splendid chambers, speaking of passions outlived and of the aftermath to be garnered from their fields. Father and daughter alike were reap- ing that which had been sown in Bukharest more than twenty years ago. From his just judgment, from her birthright, it lay upon the stranger to save them. Gavin determined to begin his work that very night. He had lighted a pipe when Evelyn left him, and with this glowing in the darkness, he set out, with no definite purpose in his mind, toward the gypsy encampment down in the hollow by the river. He- hirid him, Melbourne Hall stood up as a glittering palace of a wonder world, its windows casting out their brilliant jets to make blacker darkness in the gardens, and many a picture revealed to speak of ancient centuries and the momentous history of the house. Ahead of him lay the moonlit park, the giant yews and elms, the matchless oaks, glades and dells, where from the elves should come unsurpassa- ble avenue and all the beauty of the forest scene. Gavin walked on, however, oblivious of the night or its wonders. He had a vague idea that he might learn something from the rogues and vagabonds who had followed Count Odin to Melbourne Hall; and, with this idea indicating his path, he came presently to the thicket beyond which the encamp- ment lay. There a sound of voices arrested his at- tention. Plainly, he said, a woman was speaking; and while the surprise of this discovery was stil! upon him, the music of a violin, weird and echoing, began to accompany the speaker in a song so plain- tive that the very spirit of sorrow appeared to breathe in every note of it. Gavin listened to the music spell-bound, and yet a little ashamed of his position. No possible ad- vantage to himself or others would have induced him to play an eavesdropper’s part at Melbourne or elsewhere. If he lingered ih the shadow ot the thicket, it was because the music compelled him and he could not escape its fascinations. When the sound of the voice died away, he turned road; and then he became aware for the first time that he did not stand there alone. A pair of black eyes shining like a cat’s in the darkness, looked up at him as it were from his very shoulder, Re- turning their gaze, but not without a quickening pulse and some apprehension of danger, he could, at length, outline the figure of a man, slim and agile, and yet not without a certain grace to be perceived even in such a light. That this fellow was one of the gypsies he had no doubt at all. The clear moonlit night revealed the oval” face, the restless eyes, the long, tapering hands of a Ro- many. Gavin remarked the hands particularly — for one of them was thrust into the bosom & »

‘“Zallony’s son looked him straight in the face.’’ The English was execrable bit the meaning quite plain. Gavin answered as abruptly: “I am listening to your music.” The gypsy, utterly lost in his attempts to con- tinue in a tongue of which he knew so little, stam- mered for an instant and then asked curtly: “Do you speak German, sir?” “Possibly as well as you do; I have been three years in that excellent country.” “Please to tell me who you are, then, and why you come to his. Excellency’s house?” Gavin laughed at the impertinence of it. Speak- ing in fluent German, he said: “I might very well put that question to you. Shall I say, then, that I am not here to answer your questions. Come, we had better be frank with each other. -I may be able to help you.” This was a new idea to the gypsy and one that caused him some perplexity. <A _ little reflection convinced him that the stranger was right. “Very well,” he said, “we will talk about it. Come to my tent and Djala shall make us coffee. Why not be friends? Yes, we might help each other, as you say. Let us talk first and then we can quar- rel.” He led the way through a path.of. the dell, pow- dering the ground with the golden dust of wild flowers as he went. The encampment had been enlarged considerably since Evelyn discovered it gon the gypsies first coming to Moretown. There were no less than séven tents; and the biggest of these, the one to which Gavin’s guide now conducted him, had been furnished with lavish generosity. Old silver lamps from the hall cast a warm, soft light upon the couches and rugs about; there were Old tapestries hung against the canvas; tables glittering with silver ornaments; a buffet laden with bottles and silver boxes. But the chief ornament was Djala, a little Hungarian girl, and such a perfect picture of wild beauty that Gavin stared at her amazed. “Here is Djala,” the guide said, with a gesture of his hand toward her. “Il am known as Zallony’s son. His Excellency may have spokeh of me.” “I know nothing,” said Gavin simply. “Permit me to tell the young lady that she has a charming voice. I have never heard music that fascinated me 80 much.” ; “It is the music of a nation of musicians, sir. Please to sit down. Djala will’ serve us cigarettes and coffee.” The girl laughed pleasantly, showing a row ot shining white teeth and evidently understanding that a compliment had been paid her by the stran- ger. When she had served the coffee and cigar- _ ettes, she ran away with a coquette’s step and they heard her singing outside to the soft accom- paniment of a zither. Zallony’s son smoked mean- while, with the contemplative silence of the Ori- ental; and Gavin, waiting for him, would not be the first to-break the truce. “So you have been in Germany, sir?’ “I was there three years,” said Gavin, “You know Bukharest, it may be?” “Not at all, though a lady’s book was on the point of sending me, to the Carpathians.” “You should go and see my country; it is~the finest in the world.” “I will take care to do so on the earliest oppor- tunity.” “Make friends with my people and they will be your friends. We never forget, sir. That is why I am here in this English country, because we never forget.” “The best of qualities. * * * They tell me that your father was his Excellency’s friend in Roumania many years ago.” The gvpsy looked at him questioningly. “It is as you say, sir. They were brothers of the hills. When the houses burned, and the women ran from the soldiers, then men said it is Zallony and the English lord. ‘There was another with them. He is in prison now—he who was my fath- er’s friend. Sir, I come to England to give him liberty.” Gavin was greatly interested. He drained the little cup of coffee, and, filling a pipe slowly, he said: “What forbids your success?” Zallony’s son looked him straight in the face. “A lady known to us—she may forbid it, sir.” “You cannot mean the Lady Evelyn?” “We will not speak of names. You have her confidence, Say to her that when she is false to my friend, Count Odin, I will kill her.” “But that is nonsense. What has she to do with it? Your affair is with the Earl, her father. Why do you speak of her?” _ “Because there is only one door by which my father’s friend can win his liberty. Let Georges Odin’s son marry an Englishwoman and my Gov- ernment. will release him.” “That is your view. Do you forget his Excel- lency’s influence? Why should he not petition the Government at Bukharest for this man’s liberty?” “Because, in that case, his own life would be in danger. We are a people that never forgets. 1 have told you'so. If Georges Odin were at liberty, he would cross the world to find his enemy. ‘That is our nature. We love and hate as an Eastern people should. The man who dves us a wrong must repay, whoever he is. It would be different if the young Count had an English wife. That is why | wish it.” Gavin smiled almost imperceptibly, “It is quite clear that you know little of Eng- land,” he said. “This language suits your own ¢eountry very well. Permit me to say that it 1s ridiculous in ours. If Lord Melbourne had any hand in your friend’s imprisonment, which I doubt, he is hardly likely to be influenced by threats. 1 should say that you are going the wrong way to work. As to Lady Evelyn, | will tell you that sie will never be the wife of one of your countrymen. If you agk a reason, it is a personal one, and before you now, She is going to marry me. It is just as well that we should understand as much at once. FICTION, LIBRARY. SECTION ST. LOUIS POST-DISPATCH JULY 22 1906, The gypsy heard the news as one who had ex- pected to hear it. He smoked for a little while in silence. Then he said: “I appreciate the courtesy of your admission’ That which I thought it necessary to tell you at first, I must now repeat * * ®* this lady is the be- trothed of my friend, Count Odin. I remain in England as the guardian of his honor. Hf you are wise, you will leave the house without further warn- ing. My friend is absent, and until he is heré | must speak for him. We do not know you and wish you no harm. Let this affair end as it began. You would be foolish to do otherwise.” Gavin heard the threat without any sign of re- sentment whatever. “You are talking the language of the Carpathi- ians, not of London,” he said, with.a new note of de- termination in his tone. “I will answer you in my English way. I have asked y Evelyn to marry me, and she will do so before The year is out. ‘That is final. For the rest, I remind you again that you are not in Bukharest.” He rose, laughing, and offered his hand. -“Good-night,” he said. “They will be anxious about me at the castle.” It was the gypsy’s turn to smile. “I have dealt fairly with you,” he said; “for that which is now to come, do not blame me when it comes.” , “Too late is often never,” replied Gavin lightly; and with that he left him. The gypsy girl, Djala had ceased to sing as he quitted tle tent and the rest of the encampment was in darkness. But as he crossed the home park, a burly figure upon a black horse loomed up sud- denly from the shadows and there was still moon- light enough for him to recognize the Earl. “He is going to his gypsy friends,” Gavin said to himself. “Then he knows that this brigand’s son has spoken to me—ah, I wonder!”

Chapter XXil. A SPY FROM BUKHAREST. T IS an English characteristic to deride the | Europe code of social ethics and especially those fine heroics which attended the vindication of what is so often miscalled “honor.” Whatever else Gavin Ord ‘Jacked, sound common sense he had abundantly; and that came to his aid when he re- turned from the gypsy’s tent to the manor and de- bated the odd interview which he had so abrhptly terminated. These men, he said, were mere brava- does; but they might be dangérous none the less. Of Count Odi he knew nothing; but his antipathy to all counts was ineradicable, and he had come to number them together as so many imposters, val- iants and bankrupts, This habit of thinking first led him to the supposition that Lord Melbourne, his host, had been the victim of alittle band of swin- diers and was about to be blackmailed by them as few even of the most unfortunate degenerates are blackmailed, even in this age ~.of accomplished roguery.

There may be a deeper story—if s0, I shall find it out when the time comes. I am now to act for Evelyn’s sake and think of no consequences which | do not coneern her.

He could not forget that some one had watched him in his - sleep when first he.came to Melbourne Hall; and this unforgotten figure his imagination showed to him again, telling him that it crossed the room with cat-like steps or breathed upon his face when- ever his eyes were closed. His natural courage ‘made nothing of the darkness; but the suggestion of unknown and undisclosed danger became intol- . erable as’ the night advanced; and at the very first call of dawn, he drew the curtains back and waited When this at ‘length broke above the night’s mists floating up from the river, Gavin rose and put on his dressing gown, being quite sure that sleep had, for the time being, deserted him. True, his odd hallucination that someone was in the room with him no longer troubled him; but certain facts disquieted him none the less; and-of these, the belief that his wallet and his papers had been ransacked during the night was not the least alarming. He felt sure that he could not be mistaken. A man of method, he re- _ membered clearly how he had placed his papers and -in what order he had left them. Whoever had played the spy’s part had done so_ clumsily, forgetting to reclasp the wallet and leaving the dressing table in some disorder. knowledge that some one had, after all, watched him while he slept and that: his dream had not de- ceived him. ed A take me for a spy from Bukha- rest,” he said .* * * and he could evens at the delusion.

The answer that “his lordship was awaiting him in the long gallery,” hardly surprised him. He felt sure that the recognition last night had been mutual. “Zallony’s son has told him,” he said; “very well, I will go and ask him to give me Evelyn.” . * * * ‘a . . .

This his eyes betrayed, being glassy in their ab- stracted gaze and rarely resting upon any object as though to observe it for more than an instant. _ When. Gavin entered, a tremulous hand indicated a chair drawn up near by the table. The BHarl was ._ the first to speak and he did so with averted gaze and in a loud voice which failed to conceal the hesi- tation of his words. “ft hear of your unfortunate accident for the first “Let me implore tower is too old to write new histories.” - Gavin replied with an immediate admission of - that which he owed to Evelyn's bravery. “But for your daughter, my lord,” he said, should not be here this morning to speak to you ao ” very grave things.

The battle which he ‘must wage for Evelyn’s sake had but begun. Set- : tling himself in his chair and looking the Earl full * jn the face, he said: “Does Lady Evelyn know of this, my lord? Is this the answer she wishes you to give me?" 3 riage until he Min bare peg ea aade they . , must begin and end today. If I am no longer able “In no sense. But I speak as one who consults her interests before all things.” Gavin smiled perceptibly. “Forgive-me, Lord Melbourne,” he said; “but all this is so very characteristic of your house and its history. A hundred years ago it would have sound- ed well enough and I should have called a coach obediently as any gentleman of those days would have felt obliged to do.

To save yourself, my lord, you would marry your daughter to a scoundrel, who is known for such in his own country and ours; and, when you did it, some false logic would try to tell you that it was . for the sake of your home and name; while all the time it is done to save you some inconvenience, some penalty you should in justice pay to the past. 1 am not so blind that I cannot see the things that are happening all around me. Evelyn's consent to my proposal gives me this right to speak plainly to you, in her interests and my own. Would you not be wiser, my lord, to deal with me as I am dealing with you—tell me in a word why this stranger can coerce you when an Englishman is answered in a word? I think that you would. I think it would be well if you said: ‘Here is a man who wishes to be my friend and will be so — less of the consequences.’” The boldness of his utterance found the Earl al- together ‘unarmed. Under other circumstances he — would have rung the bell and ordered a carriage for Mr. Gavin mes but the whole problem was too full of perplexities for that.. It may be that Lord Mel- bourne was fully alive both to the truths and false- hoods of his position.” He had done a man a great wrong and that man’s son had crossed Europe to bid him right the wrong and act justly. How easy would © it all have been if Evelyn had loved this son and married him! No story then to delight a scandal- loving multitude; no fear, growing upon weak nerves, that the man who had suffered might avenge his wrong. Yes, Evelyn could save him * * * and here was a stranger who forbade her to do 80. “You speak very freely,” he said to Gavin, present- ly. “I will do you the justice to believe that you also speak honestly. If Evelyn has told you ‘any- . thing; it will be that Count Odin is the son nye one of my oldest friends.” “I have learned that from two satan” said Gavin. “Will you let me add, my lord, that you are probably speaking of a man who is dead?” The Earl started and looked up quickly. “Have you any knowledge of that?” “None whatever, but I have heard of Count Odin’s . story.” ’ “He is as other young men, I suppose! neither bet-— ter nor worse’—— “While, for the daughter you love, you would have chosen just such a man. Is that so, my lord?” Here was a shrewd hit? going straight to the heart of one who, for 15 long years, had striven to, shield his daughter from that which her dead mother’s genius had bequeathed to her—the life and passion "of the East; the nomad’s craving for change and excitement, the gilt and tinsel of the theater. Yes, truly, they had been years of self-sacrifice and of ceaseless vigil—to end in this specter of youth re- born and of vengeance awake. -“Mr. Ord,” he said, “I perceive that my story is © known to you. Your judgment of me is what the world’s judgment would be if half the truth were known—and, remember, it is rarely more than half a truth that the world comes to possess.

Bukharest it seemed so much easier to comprehend, amid a people careless of life and little unacquaint- ed with death. All the gauds of passion, of love, and hatred were known to this mean city.

No, by all the gods. But, tell me, does your friend Chesney think you are unwise to go to Okna?” “He says I am mad. I told him as much as I had the right to tell.

N EASTERN sun, monstrous and molten and A blinking tears of fire, dwelt an instant in the west ere it sank beneath the rim of the mountains, beyond which lies the river Danube. In- stantly, as though by a wizard’s enchantment, the heat spell passed from the face of the withered land and the sweetness of the night came down. All the woods were alive now, as though the voice of Even had bidden them rejoice. Birds appeared, flitting from the swaying boughs of oak and elm and syca> more. Springs bubbled over as though rejoicing that their enemy slept. Life that had been dor- mant but ten minutes ago answered to the reveille of twilight and added a note musical to the song. Men breathed a full bredth of the soft breezes and said that it was good to live. The very landscape, revealing new beauties in the mellow light, might have been sensible of the hour and its meaning. It was the evening of the second day after Gavin Ord and his friend Arthur Kenyon had dined to- gether in the Hotel Moskowa at Bukharest. A railway and 12 hours’ abuse of its tardiness had carried them a stage upon this journey. Willing Hungarian ponies, mules, in whose eyes the nega- tive virtues might be read; brought them to the foot of the mountains and ‘eft them there to camp, with RALLIES ‘‘Arthur Kenyon stood with his back against the trunk of a beech, his revolver drawn.”’ what luxury they might. Attended by a sleek Turk they had discovered in the Capital, their escort boasted no less than four heroes of the line—for this had been Cecil Chesny‘s unalterable determination, that they should not go to the mountains alone. “It’s a fool’s errand and may be dangerous,” said he. “These soldiers are thieves, but they will see that no one else robs you. I will ask the Ministry to pick out as good specimens as he can. Don’t complain when you see them. They are much less harmless than they look.” Gavin did not like the business at all, but as Chesny’s good will was necessary to the expedi- tidn, he put up with it, and the four shabby sol- dier accompanied him from Bukharest. They were ill-mannered fellows enough, raw-boned, high- cheeked, sallow-faced ruffians, who “paradise enow” could be found wherever good comely, plump girls and bad tobacco might be found. Their energy at mealtime became truly prodigious. They were ray- enous wolves, seeking what they might devour; and, as Arthur Kenyon remarked, they would have eaten his boots if he had taken them off. Now, this pretty company, Englishmen, Rou- manians, a Greek and a Turk, encamped in the woods together upon the evening of the second day, and found what comfort they could beneath the shel- tering leaves of a spacious beech. It had been Gavin’s intention to put up at a guest-house named by the guidebook he had purchased in Vienna; but when they came to the place where the inn should ’ have stood, they discovered nothing but charred ruins and cinerous relics; and, “by all the gods,” said Arthur Kenyon, “the red cock has crowed here before us.” A romantic ear would have listened greedily at such a time to the guide’s tales of border pleasantries—girls carried shrieking to the moun- tains, roofs blazing, priests burned in their holy oils, babes hoist on bayonets—for such they would have made a simple affair in which a drunken herds- man and a paraffin lamp had figured notably; but Gavin was in no mood for narratives, and he sent them to the right about, one for wood, another for water, a third to hunt a tot or homestead, if such were to be discovered. “The Hotel of the Belle Etoile after all,” he said gloomily. “Well, it might have been worse, Arthur.” “Just so. If I had not stocked your larder at Salvitesti, you would now be doing what the amiable Foulon advised the French people to do a hundred years ago—eating hay with relish, my dear boy. Well, there’s red wine strong enough to poison White Bull, and maize bread tough enough for a guinea set of ready-made grinders, to say nothing of cheese, sausage and biscuits. Fall on, Macduff, and damned be he who eats enough.” , “I don’t care twopence about the food,” said Gavin savagely; “it’s the delay I fret over. We may be within riding distance of the place for all I know. They could have told us at this inn.” . PAGE FIVE |

We are people of importance and our escort is a royal one. It is also musical. That song suggests Seigfried or is it the ‘Belle of New York?’ My musical education was completed at Magdalen - _ College within Cambridge and is incomplete.” He frivoled on as young men will, not without purpose, for Gavin’s anxiety was patent to all about him. It had seemed an easy thing in Eng- land to visit the near East and learn for himself the simple truth of Georges Odin’s fate. Here on the slopes of the mountains he began to understand his di‘ficulties, perhaps the danger, of his pursuit. For ’ this, he remembered, had been the scene of Robert Forrester’s youth, this the home of Zallony, the revolutionary brigand upon whose head three coun- tries had set a price. Time had not changed the disposition of the mountain people, nor had civiliza- tion influenced its social creeds. Beware of Zallony’s gypsies, they had said to him at Bukharest. ‘This night had brought him within a post of his goal. It was be hard. enoygh if any mischance should send him back to England empty handed, to say to Eve- lyn; “I have failed; I ean tell you nothing.” Arthur Kenyon, for his part, had begun to enjoy . the whole adventure amazingly. Especially he liked the four merry soldiers, who ate and drank > as though they had been fasting and athirst for a week, and lay down afterwards to falf instantly to | sleep. In this the Greek muleteer and the Turkish robber of all trades imitated them without loss of time; so that by 9 o’clock nothing but the red glow of two English pipes and the sonorous nasal thank offerings of the sleepers would have betrayed the camp or its occupants. Such conversation as passed between Gavin and Arthur was in fitful whispers, the talk of men thoroughly fatigued and wistful for the day. They, too, dropped to sleep over it at last. When they awoke it was to such a scene as neither would ever forget, however long he might live. Gavin slept without dreaming, the first night he had done so since he left England. He could re- member afterwards that his friend’s voice awoke ‘him from his heavy slumber; and that, when he sat up and stared about him, Arthur Kenyon was the first person his eyes rested upon. Instantaneously, as one sees a picture in a vision, the stene of the camp presented itself to his view—the great trunks of the oaks and beeches, the hollow wherein the horses were tethered, the tangle of grass _ and undergrowth. Just as he had seen it when he fell asleep, so the reddening embers of the campfire showed it to him now—unchanged, and yet how dif- ferent! fle was, for this brief instant, as a sleep- er who wakes in a familiar room and wonders why “he has been awakened. Then, just as rapidly, the scales fell from his eyes and he knew. Arthur Kenyon stood with his back against the trunk of a beech, his revolver drawn and about him such a motley crowd that only a comic opera could have reproduced it. Gypsies chiefly, the fire light flashed upon sallow faces which a man might see in an evil dream; upon arms that a medieval age should have forged; upon limbs that forest labor had trained to hardiness. Crying together in not unmusieal exclamations, the raiders appeared in no way desirous of injuring their man, but only of disarming him. One of their number lay prone al- ready, hugging a wounded thigh and muttering im- preeations which should have brought the heavens upon his head—a second had the Englishman by the ‘legs and would not be beaten off; while of the rest, the foremost aimed heavy blows at the extended pistol and demanded its delivery in sonorous Ger- man. Such was the scene which the picture present- ed to Gavin as he awoke. He was on his feet be- fore the full meaning of it could be comprehended. “Halt!” he cried, for lack of any other word to serve. His tone, his manner, drew all eyes toward him. “What do you want?” he continued, with the. same air of authority, Twenty voices answered him, but he could make nothing of their reply. He was about to speak for the third time when rough hands pinioned his arms and feet from behind and in- stantly. deprived him of the power to move a step from the place where he stood. “To conduct your excellency to the Castle of Okna—we have come for that, excellency.” “You are aware.that I am an Englishman?”_ The gypsy pointed smilingly to his wounded friend. “We are perfectly aware of it, excellency.” “Then you know the ane cap: of that which you are doing?” “Pardon, excellency—there are no consequences in the. mobntaiaa, Let your friend be wise and put up kis pistol. We shall shoot him if he does not.” Gavin, doubting the nature of the situation no | — — his shoulders and invited Kenyon _ grass and left him insensible there. agents. Let’s hear what the principal has to say.” “Very well, if you think so. It’s poor fun, though PPperae io - -) a realy nee omni ‘But, of. course, I bow to wisdom.” He held out his hands to the gypsy who bound them immediately with a leather thong taken from the saddle bow of the excellent pony he had ridden. Silently and methodically now, the men secured their prisoners and produces their gyves of heavy rope. To resist would have been just that madness which Gavin named it—and but for Evelyn the scene had been one to jest at. “Do you treat all your guests at the Castle of Okna in- this way?” he asked the leader of the men suddenly. The reply was delivered with a suavity delightful to hear. “When they come to us with soldiers and ‘Turks, then we speak plainly to them, excellency.”. . “True, I had forgotten the soldiers. Where are those noble men now?” “Half-way back to Salvitesti, excellency.” “And the muleteer?” . 7 “Oh, my friends are warming his feet for him. We are not fond of Greeks, here in the mountains, ex- cellency.” Gavin started as the man spoke, for a wild shriek broke upon his ears and becoming louder. until it sounded like some supreme cry of human agony, ended at last in a fearful sobbing, as it were the weeping of a child in pain. When he dared to look, ‘he saw the gypsies had dragged: the wretched Greek to the campfire and pouring oil from a can upon his bare feet, they thrust them into the flames and “held them there, with that utter indifference to human suffering which, above all others, is char- acteristic of the people of the Balkans. Worming in their embrace, his eyes starting from his head, his ‘voice paralyzed by the fearful cries he raised, the wretched man suddenly fainted and lay inanimate in the flame. Then, and not until then, they drew him back and left him quivering upon the- green grass. “He was warmed,” the gypsy leader muttered sul- lenly ; “be should have known better.” - But Arthur, showing Gavin his bleeding wrists, said with a shrug. “I think very little of wisdom, Gavin.” The rope had cut the flesh almost to the bone in his efforts te go to the help of the wretched Greek. Chapter XXV. THE HOUSE ABOVE THE TORRENT. whistled softly and the gypsies stood with ears intent, listening, alarmed, to the sig- nal. When it had been twice repeated, they ap- peared to become more confident, and, untethering their ponies, or calling,. with low, whining voices, S OMEONE upon the outskirts of the woods those that grazed, they turned to their prisoners and bade them prepare to march. “To the Castle of Okna, excellency”—— A shout of laughter greeted the saying, and Gavin, had he been credulous until this time, would have remained credulous no more. A philosopher al- ways, he shrugged his shoulders and oer to the ropes which bound: him. “I am no acrobat,” he said; “I cannot ride with a rope about my legs.” “We are about to remove it, excellency. Be care- ful what you do—my men are hasty. If you are wise, you will be followed by so many laughing angels. lf, however, Wwe should find you obstinate, then, excellency” He touched the handle of a great knife at his girdle significantly, and some of the others, as though understanding him, closed about the pony significantly while Gavin mounted. A similar at- tention being paid to Arthur Kenyon was not re- ceived so kindly; for no sooner did they attempt to lift him roughly to the saddle than he turned about and dealt the first of them a rousing blow which stretched the fellow full length upon the The act was within an aee of costing him his life. Knives sprung from sheaths, antique pistols were flourished—there were cries and counter cries; and then, as though miraculously, a louder voice from some one hidden in the wood commanding them to silence. In that moment, the gypsy chief flung himself before Ken- yon and protected him with hands uplifted and curses on his lips. “Dogs and carrion—do you forget witom you obey?” he almost shrieked, and then to the Eng- lishman: “You are mad, mein herr—be wise or | will kill you.”~ Kenyon, strangely nonchalant through it all, shrugged his shoulders and clambered upon the back of the pony. Gavin, turned deadly pale in spite of himself, breathed a full breath again, and desired nothing more of fate than that they should quit the cursed wood witliout further loss of time. As though enough evil had not come to him there, he espied, as they rode from the place, the dead body of his servant, the Turk, face downwards, with the knife that killed him still protruding from his shoulders. And he doubted if the wretched Greek, so brutally maimed in the fire, still lived or must Le numbered a second victim of the night. | Had he been a fool to leave England upon such an errand at all, or did the cireumstances of his visit a Pare dest pared That which he “hke Siti - one for the sake of one whose sweet volte scomad: to speak of courage even at such an henna “It would not help us.

To him the picturesque environment of height and valley, forests of pine and sleeping pastures were Jess than ~ nothing at all.

It now became plain that none but the gypsy oo leader was to enter the castle with the prisoners; and he, when he had addressed some loud words to the others (for the roar of the torrent eng 02 him to shout), passed first across the bridge, lead-. - ing Kenyon’s pony and calling to the other to fol- P lew him. Just a glance the men could turn upon . “raging waters, here of the deepest blue, there a sour green, or again but a boiling, tumbling mass of writhing foam—just this and the vista of the sheer, eruel rocks and the infernal abyss; then they passed over and the bridge was drawn up and they stood within the courtyard, as securely caked as though - the oubeliettes prisoned them and gyves of steel] were about their wrists. “Excellents, my master, the Chevalier, would speak with you.” Thus sakl the guide—and, as he said it, pene understood that he had come to the house of Count _ Odin’s father, the man who had loved Dora d’istran, s * e x : ¥ ; $ ; and for love her had, paid nearly twenty years of his precious liberty. “And thie is the Castle of Okna ” he exclaimed. The guide smiled. “No, excellency,” he said, “the Castle of Okna lies many miles from here. You must speak to our master of that. That is his step, excellency!” _ They listened and heard the tapping of a stick upon a stone pavement. It approached them labori- ously; and after that which seemed an intermina- — ble interval, an old white-haired man appeared at one of the doors of the quadrangle and raising his voice’ bade them welcome. The voice was the one they recognized as that of the wood; but the face of the speaker sent a shudder through Gavin’s veins which left him unashamed. “Blind,” he muttered, amazed; “the man is blind.” Chapter XXVI. _ ° THROUGH A WOMAN’S HEART. HE blind man felt his way down a short flight T of stairs, and, standing before the prisoners, he said, in a voice indescribably harsh and grating: “Gentlemen, welcome to Setchevo,” and so he told them the name of the place to which their jour- _ | __ ney had carried them.

Please to say ‘Which of you is Mr. Gavin ord.” s Gavin stepped forward and answePed in a foud cour voice: “I am he.” The blind man, pass- ng trembling claws over the hands and faces of the 3 vo, smiled when he heard the voice and drew still to them. lieve that Count Odin, his son, had already mar- od ‘the Lady Evelyn or was it but a coup de ater to. invite them to an indiscretion. Gavin, fewd and watchful, decided in an instant upon e course he would take. “I bring no message from your son; nor has he, to ny knowledge, an English wife. Permit me an in- where we can be alone and I will state my * Here was a threat, aftd a wise: threat; but the old man heard it with disdain, his tongue licking his — lips and a smile, vicious and cruel, upem his scarred face. : “My friend,” he said, “at the donjon of Setchevo we think nothing of English opinion at Bukharest, as you will learn in good time: I thank you, how- ever, for reminding me that you are my guests and fasting. Be good enough to follow me. The Eng- lish, I remember, are eaters of flesh at dawn, being thus but one step removed from the cannibals. This | house shall gratify you—please to follow me, I say.” Laboriously as he had descended the stairs, he— climbed them again, the baffling smile still upon his face and the stick tapping weirdly upon the broken stone. The house within did not belie the house as it appeared from without. Arched ‘corridors, cracked groins, molded frescoes, great bare apart- ‘ ments with dismal furniture of brown oak, the whole building breathed a breath both chilling and pestilential. If there was a redeeming feature, Gav- in found it in the so-called banqueting hall, a fine room gracefully paneled with a barrel -vault and some antique moldings original enough to awaken an artist’s curiosity. The great buffet of this boast- ed plate was of considerable value and no little merit of design; and such a breakfast as the Chevalier’s servants had prepared was served upon a mighty oak table which had been a table when the second Mohammed ravaged Bosnia. The men were hungry enough and they ate and drank with good appetite. Perhaps it was with some relief that they discovered a greater leniency within the house than they had found without. Discomfort | is often the ally of fear; and whatever were the demerits of the House at Setchevo, the discomforts were relatively trifling. As for the old blind Cheva- lier, he sat at the head of the table just as though he had eyes to watch their every movement and to judge them thereby. Not until they had made a good meal of delicious coffee and fine white bread, with eggs and a dish of Kolesha in a stiff square lump from the pan—not until then did he intrude with a word, of appear in any way anxious to ques- tion them. ~ “You pay a tribute to our mountain air,” he ex- claimed at last, speaking a little to their astonish- ment in their own tongue; “that is your English virtue, you can eat at any time.” . “And some of us are equally useful in the matter of drinking,” rejoined Arthur Kenyon, who had begun to enjoy himself again, and was delighted to hear the English language. The Chevalier, however, believed this to be some reflection upon his hospitality, and he said at once: “I ‘compliment you upon your frankness, mein herr—‘my servants shall bring wine.” “Oh, indeed, no; I referred to a very bad habit,” exclaimed Kenyon quickly and then rising he added: “With your permission, sir, I will leave you with my friend. I am sure you have both much to say to each other.” ' He did not wait for a reply, but strolled off to the other end of the hall and thence out to the courtyard, no man saying him nay. Alone together, the Chevalier and Gavin sat a few moments in awkward silence, each debating the phrase with which he shuld open the argument. Meanwhile, a Turkish .servant brought cigarettes, and the old man lighted one, but immediately cast it from him. “The blind cannot smoke,” he said irritably; “that is one of the compensations of life which imagina- tion cannot give us. Well, I am too old to complain —my world lies within these walls. It is wide enough for me.” “I am _ indeed ‘sorry,” could always arouse his sympathies wherever he found it. “Is there no hope at all of any relief?” “None whatever. The nerves have perished. So much I owe to my English friendship—the last gift it bestowed upon me. Shall I tell you by what means I became blind, mein herr? Go down to the salt mines at Okna and when ‘they blast the rock there, you will say: “Georges Odin, the Englishman’s friend, lost his eyesight in that mine.’ It is true before God.

He is afraid of me. Yes, there was always a coward’s cloak ready for hin. He knew it and played his part in spite of it. He is afraid of me and sends you here to say su.

As he did to me, so will I do to this English girl he dotes upon. When she is my son’s wife!” His laugh had a horrid ring in it—broken, stunted teeth protruded from his “hanging lips, his hans trembled upon the stick he carried. “When she 1s my son’s wife!” He seemed to moisten the very words with a tongue lustful for vengeance. And Gavin heard him with a repulsion beyond ail ex- perience, a horror that made him dread the very touch of the man’s fingers. “Chevalier,” he said at length, will never be your son’s wife.” “Ha, a prophet? Tell me that you are her chosen husband, and I will ask you no second questicn.”- “I am her chosen husband and I return to Engiaad to marry her.” “You return!

As you came in folly, so shall you go—when vg English woman is in my son’s arms.” He turned, a laugh which was almost a cry upen his lips, and tapped his way from the apartment. Gavin could hear the sound of his footsteps long afterwards, passing from corridor to corridor of the great bare house; but the words he had spoken lingered and were echoed, as though by a sprit ot vengeance moving in the room. “the Lady Evelyn Chapter XXVIL. ETTA ROMNEY’S RETURN. T WOULD have been about half-past one upon | the afternoon of a gloomy November day, some three months after Gavin Ord set out for Rou- mania, that a‘ hansom cab was driven up to the stagedoor of the Carlton Theater, the Lady Evelyn, wearing heavy black furs and a motor veil, whi f entirely hid her face from the passers-by, alighted timidly and offered the cabman a generous fare. Deaf to the man’s effusive assurance that he had no other ambition in life but to drive the same fare back to the place whence she came, Evelyn eatered the narrow alley wherein the s oor is situatcd and at once asked the stage doorkeeper if Mr. Charles Izard-was or was not within the house?

‘* Blind, Jacob Briggs, pulling the pipe to the right side of his mouth, ate a smile as though it were good but- ter, “Perhaps he was agoing to send a carriage and pair for yer, miss, or a motor kar. That’s wot he does ordinary to such young. ladies as you. Now, 1 shouldn’t wonder if you don’t think as you can play Miss Fay’s part better’n she herself. I’ve seed a many and most of ’em do. But, lord, I’m too good- natured to take much notice on it. Tryin’s tryin,’ says I, and if yow ask for a sufferin (sovereign), who knows as you mayn’t get a shilling. Wot you’ve got to do, miss, is to go round to the horfiss. They'll soon turn you out of that, and better for you in the long run”—— _ “And yet you used not to think so when I was playing Di: Vernon, Mr. Briggs.” The smile left Jacob’s face as though some one had hit him. He slipped: down the board until he came near to sitting on the pavement. Speech did not immediately assist him, and he could mutter nothing else. but the mystic and entirely irrelevant phrase, “--— my uncle!” which he continued to re- peat until he had scrambled to his feet and doffed his carpenter’s cap. “Good Lord, Miss Romney, if you’d have said so, why, I’d have pulled the theater down for ye, and willing. Mr. Izard now—he won’t be glad neither. ‘Briggs,’ says he .to me, ‘she’ll come back some day, just as sure as Mrs. Briggs’—but that’s neither here nor there, miss. He’s over at the tavern now and Mr. Lacombe with him. Let me say the word and he’ll come back in a fire engine”—— Evelyn protested that shé did not desire the word - to be said; but would wait in the auditorium and announce herself to the great man. Understanding the “tavern” really meant the Carlton Hotel an t there was a rehearsal of a new and modern play at 2 o’clock, she entered the theater and sat, her veil undrawn, in the wings, whereby from time to time the acquaintances of old time must pass her. So dark was it that she feared no recognition. Those who came in and out, pinched girls who had lunched off a spongecake and a cup of cocoa; heavy jowled men whose midday refreshment had been distilled from juniper; sleek youths with a new rendering of Hamlet in their pockets—the success, the fortunes, the hopes, the disappointments of each chained his tongue and. directed his eyes to that man or woman alone who had the patience and the good nature to hear a recital of them, None paid attention to Evelyn, or as much as remarked her presence in the somber light. Even little Duisie Holmes passed her by unnoticed; and as for the melancholy Lucy Gray, she was too full of her own troubles so much as to think of anyone else’s, “I wish I were dead,” she bad just said to Dulcie—and this was as.much as . PAGE EIGHT to say: “I have no part in the new play, and God knows how I shall pay for my lodging.” Evelyn had a little difficulty in restraining her- self ‘from declaring her identity to the girls; but an incurable love of dramatic effect came to her aid and,. perhaps, the vain desire to be discovered more worthily by that great man, Mr. Charles Izard. Aware that she was waiting there as the humblest supplant for the theaters favors, she percefved pres- ently that the iron door between stage and audi- torium stood open; and, slipping through, she en- tered a stage box and there waited jn better security. One by one now the “stars” entered the theater and took up their positions upon the dimly-lighted stage. A chatter of conversation arose, amidst which the stagemanager’s’ voice could be heard in heated ar- gument with a lady whose part had been cut. All waited for the great man; and when he appeared a hush fell as though upon a transformation scene in & country pantomime... Lo, he had come—fresh ' from a long cigar and a bottle of what he called “noots”—meaning the excellent wine of Burgundy known as Nints. What bustle, what activity upon the part of the underlings now! How busy the prin- cipals appear to be! How white in the gloom are the faces of the girls, who lately spoke of fortune and furs and a furore of applause! The new play was also a new entertainment. It appeared to Evelyn to be a hash-up of drama and ballet, with a comedy scene in each act, introduced for the sole purpose of exploiting a lady who could imitate wild animals, That it might succeed in an age which has almost forgotten the bombastics of the ancient drama, and cares not a straw what an entertainment may be called so long as it is amus- ing and provokes rhythmical nodding of heads, was very p le. Mr. Izard, at least, had few doubts about the success of it; and yet he could have wished it otherwise. “They ask me to elevate the people,” he would remark in confidential moments, “Why, sir, the people that want elevating- had bet- ter go up in elevators. I’m here to run a theater, not a Tower of Babel, and that’s so, Just walk round to some of these fine-mouthed folk and ask them what they will pay down in dollars for the good of humanity and the British stage. If you can buy a 10-cent collar with the proceeds of that hatbox, I'll set a stone up to your memory. No, sir, the world’s too tired to think. Give ’em a great actress and they don’t have to think. That’s what I’m looking for, like a man who’s dropped’a thou- sand-dollar scarf pin on the beach at Atlantic City. Since Etta Romney walked out—but what’s the good of talking about that?

’*? he muttered, amazed—‘‘the man is biind.’’ The confession would end with a sigh and a new — application to the business of tragic-burlesque-com- edy. Smarting from the pink lash of a half-penny evening paper, which had, in a leading article that afternoon, cast italicized reflections upon “the por- cine Paladius of the people’s palaces,” the great man was in no very pleasant mood; and this he made manifest directly rehearsal began. Scarcely a dozen lines had been repeated before the leading lady was in tears and the old stock actor sulking at a public house around the corner. Ladies at 23 shillings a week heard themselves addressed in terms which im- plied. their fitness for the position of dummies in a sideshow. The stagemanager would have been visited with blindness if the great man’s appeals to unknown powers had been heard. When ‘infallibly- ee calm fell, Izard settled himself frettingly in a stall ... and there simmered a long while in silence. Not for ; half: an hour did an exclamation escape him, and . then it came almost involuntarily. He seemed to be waging a battle between his contempt for the leading lady and his fear that. she would walk out — of the house; and the latter being waren he cried aloud, almost like one in despair; . “Etta Romney—Etta Romney—what, name, keeps you out of my theater?” - A dead silence fell, Everyone was awed by the real pathos of this regret, drawn from a man who when a musical voice answered him from the stage box, opposite prompt, then, indeed, did Charles Izard come as near to collapsing as ever he had done in his unemotional life. “Nothing keeps.me, Mr. Izard. I am here.” “Etta Romney, by 1" he exclaimed, and in the same breath hestold them that the rehearsal was over.

Oo DOGS, eats, horses, cows, turtles, frogs and, im fact, every quadruped except sheep, pos- is eens, souls? St. Louis has many inhabitants who think so. One of these is a woman who claims to be well versed in what might be called the after- math of a quadruped’s earthly existence. This is - Mrs. Sarah Boothe of 907 Nortn Fifteenth street, . \who says she has seen the souls of some of her de- opased pets after they had returned to this earth to let their former mistress know that they suffered no harm in the land to which they had gone. ."Mrs. Boothe owns eight dogs, seven cats and one ‘turtle, and conducts the only dog orphanage that St. Louis can boast of. Counting the dogs and eats that have died while in her possession and the ones that she could not afford to keep and had to give away, she has had over a hundred pets in her sixty years of life. Most of these were owned within the past twenty years. This remarkable woman, who lives in a hovel and deprives herself of the necessities of life that the homeless dogs and cats of St. Louis may have food and shelter and be buried as a man or woman is buried, is a pleasant-faced little person and talks with an air of refinement. She earns enough for an ordinary person to live comfortably on, yet she gives half to her proteges. They are fed well every day, and are washed and cared for as though they are children. Not only does Mrs. Boothe believe that some ani- mals have souls, but she believes that there is a heaven and a hell for them. “Tt believe,” she said, “that there is a heaven fot dogs, cats and other animals of this class, because | believe that they have souls. I believe this because I have had some of my pets appear to me after their death, and they told me in their own language that they were happy. I have had constant contact with animals for the past twenty years, and I can under- stand their language almost as well as I can that of an American person. “Take cats, for instance. They have a means of expression that is as plain as that of most human beings. Whenever a cat is hungry, cold or wishes to enter the house, when the doors are closed, it will signify its wish in its own language. Some of them show that they have more sense than many persons. If they are hungry they will tell you so in a different way from that in which they ask a petting. “Everything cats desire is expressed in a different way. I can tell exactly what my pets want by the way they ask for it. This is Rard to do with strange eats or dogs, as one must get used to the ways of animals before one can understand them.” “When do you think a dog has been wicked enough to go to the dog hell?” she was asked. “I hardly know how to answer that question. Maybe when they have bitten some innocent child or stolen a bone when they were not hungry, or when they fight. I have never seen any of my dogs that went to the dog hell, if ary of them did, and do not know much about that phase of the animals after life. But, since a dog has a soul, it stands to reason that if a dog does not act as a ‘gentledog’ should, that it is not treated as well as dogs that act right. | “The breeding of a dog has 2 great deal to do with his actions. Just like a man. If the latter is born a gentleman, he will not lie or deceive. If a dog has gentle breeding he will not steal, either. “The other reasons why I think that animals, and especially dogs and horses, have souls are that they have memory, gratitude, hatred, love, are jealous at times, and their fidelity is great. There is a saying that ‘a man’s best friend, next to his mother, is his dog,’ and dogs will show their friendship and faith- fulness in as pronounced a way as humans will.” ‘When asked how she first became interested in the souls of animals, and how and why she founded the dog orphanage, Mrs. Boothe said: “Years ago, when I was a young woman, I had a friend whose husband owned a fine horse. This friend used to remark that she thought when Baldy, the horse, died, he would go to heaven, and she would meet him there. My friend died before the horse did, but when Baldy did die I saw him one night in a dream, and he was in a beautiful place—some spot tnat I had never seen before. I believe tnat this place was heaven, and that my friend and her pet «were united in the life after death, as they were in the life of this earth. “I started the home for homeless dogs because the Humane Society of St. Louis was forced to give up the home that they formerly maintained for poor animals. This was on account of the scarcity of funds. The little place that I keep up has cost me hundreds of dollars, but a dog is entitled to as much consideration as a person and should be looked after. “Here I keep six of my dogs. The other two, my seven cats and my turtle live at home with me. Most of my dogs were strays, but two of them were given to me. These are-Curly, a.water spaniel, which is my favorite of all my pets, and Teddy, a shepherd dog, that is one of the best-behaved dogs I eVer saw. All of the others are named, but I never name my + cats.

His Mame is E. 8S. Curtis and he has already pursued his roject to a considerable extent among Indian tribes Hearer his home, which is at Seattle, Wash. ¢ But th® desert Indian of the Southwest lends mself more happily to ‘he photographer’s art, while e difficulties which «arround the attainment of giitabJe pictures are a spur to the adventurous na- ture of the photographer. Previous to the present summer Mr. Curtis has been among the Navajos, Apaches and Pueblos of Arizona and New Mexio on a few desultory excursions and his unusual ex- - periences while on those trips have caused him to #ixiously await an opportunity to go back. That opportunity has not beep delayed on account of fear of -personal inconveniences on the part of Mr. Cur- tis. But the work is not remunerative, being con- ducted alone in the interests of art and history, and the photographer has a family who are dependent upon | him. : ntly, however, he exhibited his partial collec- | of representative pictures of American Indian faces at the National Arts Club; New York, where it attracted the attention of Morgan, while its fame (a to the White House. panel oni: Morgan investi- 7 ” * 7 . : 7 . =“ * * - . * : * . . . : a! gated Curtis’ circumstanees and, having convinced himself. of the photographer's earnestness, settled an annuity of $15,000 a year upon him for four years. This money is to be used in the support of Mr. Curtis’ family and in the furtherance of his work, and will allow him to devote his whole time to the project in hand. President Roosevelt extended to Mr. Curtis his good wishes and a personal commendation of his work, while, what is of more practical value, the influence of the Great White Father will be brought to. bear upon the Indians to secure their co-opera- tion as far as possible. With the practical ad- vantages to assist him, Mr. Curtis has now come back into the Southwest to take up his work. His idea is to obtain a complete pictorial record of Indian life on this continent at present. This will consist of not only typical representatives of mem- bers of the various tribes, but pictures showing their home life and the conditions under which they live. The pottery workers, the blanket makers and the sheep raisers of the Southwest will be depicted in characteristic occupations. Their homes will be shown and their tools and “workshops.” Every pictofial assistance to an ex- haustive historical text concerning these people will be made and preserved for future generations. This is diffieult in the case of certain of the tribes and individuals who are confirmed in the belief that an evil spirit inhabits the camera. Some of Mr. Curtis’ experiences have been amus- ing, others hair-raising, all of them full of color and interest. On most of the few trips he has already made into the Southwest Mr. Curtis was unaceom- panied by anyone acquainted with the language and loeal peculiarities of the Southwestern tribes—in fact, usually he was alone—and this added to his troubles. Some of these difficulties will be obvi- ated to a large extent now through his financial as- sistance and the influential pressure brought to bear in the photographer’s interest. Visits to the Cherokees, Comanches, Creeks and the “Civilized Tribes” will follow excursions among the desert Indians, but the latter task will not be so difficult. What is anticipated as a much more. exciting experience is Mr. Curtis’ visit to the Yaquis of Mexico, which, according to his program, is necessary before his undertaking is complete. These Indians are the most uncivilized on the Amer- ican continent and will not allow a white man ,in their midst, mych less submit to the camera, A recent exhaustive search was necessary to dis- cover even one badly executed photograph of a member of this race, and as for pictures in their native haunts and habitations, these are entirely un- obtainable. Still further vim is added to Mr. Curtis’ visit to these Indians by ‘he fact that they are ac- counted, as a race, the finest physical specimens of American Indians now alive. That the photogra- pher will not be daunted in his attempt to get some- thing better than a “snap shot” of them when once he turns his attention in their direction is indicated by one of his experiences among the Indians of the Northwest. Having found a big chief who was an idea] “sub- ject,” but who steadfastly refused to be photo- graphed, Mr. Curtis returned again and again to the section of the country occupied by this tribe, until after the third year of visits with them, he secured the coveted photograph. It was one of the finest among those exhibited in New York when Mr. Morgan’s interest was attracted. he securing this picture Mr. Curtis lived among the Indians, fished and hunted with them, gave them presents, as photographs.

Added to the mental and physical demand on his failing strength was the bitter fact (which Quay is said to have realized strongly during his latter days) that his mere presence on the Statehood In the Senate Beveridge of Indiana occupied an inconspicuous place on the Statehood Committee. So little importance was attached to the bill, and so certain were most people that its way through the Senate would be short, that placés on the commit- tee were not considered desirable. Just here, how- ever, Quay was appointed, not to the chairmanship, but as an humble member along with young Bever- idge.

The Senate wondered. Why should Quay, with all his experience and power, seek a place on that com- mittee? Was it chance? No; nothing ever hap- pened by chance where Quay was concerned, Why, then? There were a few sly winks among the know- ing ones, but the “knowing” in the Senate are not the ones to interfere with anybody else’s game. As to the younger and less experienced ones, they paid no heed. They thought it was “chance,” if they thought at all—all of them except young Beveridge. Beveridge had been there long enough to know that ones when Quay made a move he had an object in view. So the young man from Indiana kept a quiet watch. Fate seemed to be reaching its hand out over those connected with the statehood bill from the,very day Quay had himself put on the committee. During the summer following various members of the old com- mittee died, resigned or were defeated. That was he- fore the actual battle over the “Omnibus bill” had brought any of them into the* limelight. When summer closed and the Statehood Commit- tee came together, the hand of Fate, silently, surely, had reached out and cleared the way to the chair- manship of that committee for young Beveridge— he who had quietly watched the cat from Pennsy!l- vania and determined within his own mind that he knew the mouse it was after. Seniority of appoint- ment prevailed and the young man came into a powerful position. From a passive interest in the movements of Quay he now became actively, aggressively watchful. He studied the men associated with Quay in pushing the Omnibus bill. He looked behind them and, so it is claimed by supporters of his faction, saw the hand of the “special interests.” Then he turned his at- tention to analyzing and digesting the bill. The ter- rific fight that resulted is history. Quay led the fight to have the bill brought be- fore the Senate; Beveridge exerted his every power to keep it from being reported.

And frequently, for every day they can cut off of the contract time they are paid premiums as large as the sums they would forfeit in the other event.

Two ion five hundred thousand square feet of space fo ice purposes alone will be added to what the city a dy has when this race is finished, esti- mates an hitect. This means several thousand new office. 1s and such a changing-about of the present offical population of the city as bids fair to cause the dirgatories to fall into disrepute by reas of their lack @veracity.

sing Penitentiary Would E se “Wholesale Murder by - * State”—Is Opposed to - Capital Punishment. ANSAS now finds itself in a predica- ment unlike that of any other civilised Se): State in the world. It has ‘over three- <Seore convicted murderers on its hands, and : the Governor is going to hand them over to his successor. _ These murderers (including two women) - have been accumulating for years, although each was sentenced to death. Many of them _ have requested that they be hanged. Yet, be- _ cause of an extraordinary legal complication, the execution has been postponed indefinitely. - Meanwhile; the murderers: go on accumnu- lating in’ prison and jurics sentence them just _ as if the death sentence were to be carried out. ‘The greatest collection of murderers in the “world is handed over to every incoming Gow- sernor by his predecessor, and their number goes on increasing. ECENT statements by Gov. Hoch that he will : never sign warrants authorizing the execu- f tion of condemned prisoners has called at- tention to the fact that 59 convicted murderers under sentence of death are now confined in the Kansas Penitentiary at Lansing awaiting execution. This strange situation is made more extraordinary when considered in connection with the probability that the death penalty will never be legally inflict- ed in Kansas unless the present law should be changed, although the statutes now provide that coed in the first degree shall be pe by The real facts are, however, that the Kansas law " authorizing capital punishment does not provide as it pretends to do. Section 1946 of the General Stat- ‘utes of Kansas, providing punishment for murder in the first degree is plain in its provisions. It reads: “Persons convicted of murder in the first degree shall peter death.” ‘Tt is to a subsequent section that the responsibil- « ity- for the fact that more than seventy human be- - ings have been sentenced to suffer capital punish- went during the past 35 years without the sentence | ~ being onee carried out, should be charged. This sub- _ Sequent section throws the responsibility for a legal hanging squarely on the shoulders of the Governor of the State—in fact rests the initiatory with him. _ Since 1867 no Kansas Governor. has believed-in the _ principle of capital punishment sufficiently to in- _ duce him to signa single death warrant, and as a result the number of condemned prisoners in the ~ Kansax Penitentiary has steadily increased.

How the Present Remarkable Condition Came About. posed to capital punishment, yet it did enable ‘the State to shirk the responsibility of “legalized mur- der” and placed: the entire responsibility on the Governor.’ It_is also -apparent from the-..numerous qualifications that the Legislature was mindful of human nature and realized that Governors would be slow to order the death penalty inflicted unless sum- marily commanded to do so, For that reason, ap-

parently, was inserted the qualification that the Governor “shall, in his discretion,” order, the death penalty inflicted. And so it has been that for more than thirty years courts in Kansas haVe sentenced men convicted of murder in the first degree to death, usually sori, that the penalty would not be inflicted. In a third of a century more than seventy con: victed murderers have been sentenced to death. ‘Che sentence is each case has been practically equivalent to life imprisonment. It is now believed that no Governor will ever order the penalty imposed. Of the seventy-odd murderers upon whom death sen- tence has been passed, three have been women, and two of these women are still among the 59 hopeless prisoners at Lansing. In order to consistently sign the death warrant of a murderer convicted during his own term of office, a Goyernor would now be compelled to order the execution of 59 unfortunate wretches now at Lansing. Some of these convicts have been in the Penitentiary under sentence of death for more than thirty years and are forsaken and forgotten. Goy. Hoch has only the most incidental knowledge of their crimes and the mitigating circumstances, “In view of all these things I could not. ~ a death warrant,” Gov. Hoch remarked recently, . could not do “it, no matter how .strongly | Rea believe in the principle of ‘an eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth.’; But I do not believe in the prin- ciple at all, so it is idle for me to discuss what | could or could not do, I simply will not order the execution of any of these men, although I am con- vinced that some of them would welcome death,” In this view of the situation Gov. Hoch is unqies- tionably correct. Times almost without number condemned gonvicts at. Lansing have petitioned Kansas Governogs to order their execution, They wre that, ween jit eines them relief from the

interminable restraint and irksomeness of labor 10 the penitentiary coal mines, 900 feet beneath the surface of the earth, day in.and day out, without hope of relief.” Bat “Governors have never treated the requests seriously and in Goy. Hoch’s case the letters have been consigned to what he terms the “crank box’.in his filing -case. The law has been as it exists today since the first session of the Kansas State Legislature and the probabilities are that so far as the.sections regard- ing capital punishment are concerned, it will remain unchanged for all time.. Kansas people realize that the Jaw. authorizing capital punishment is practical-

The bare fact that less than Seventy-five mei have been condemned to death in the State during a third of a century is supposed to indicate that homi- cide is prevented as effectively by the present law, equivalent to one imposing life imprisonment in di- rect terms, as it.would be by a law imposing capital punishment. So long as the people continue to so regard it there will be no demand for a change in the law. Though few. people know it, one man was hanged in Kansas legally, since the present law has been in effect. Examinations of the’ records at the rooms of the State Historical Society discloses the fact Their Death Warrants at His Discretion. tion approached strenuous efforts were made to re- strain Gov. 8. for his execution. Gov. Crawford was a believer in the principle of capital punishment. He was in- clined to sign the order, but was wavering in his determination. ’ Rev. J. B. McAfee, a well-known Lutheran min- ister now residing in Topeka, was Gov. Crawford’s private secretary. McAfee was very earnest in his conviction that Bates should be hanged and friends of the latter concluded that they could induce the Governor to commute the sentence if McAfee could be converted to their side of the controversy.

At recent convention im Indianapolis, any pumber of biliposters declared they had long had “eonacientious scruples” against posting much of ‘ne “paper” that was turned over to them, “paper” pieturing shapely chorus girls in diaphanous gowns. The time had now come, they continued, to make their individual consciences the arbiter and 2 ‘to refuse to post any more such “paper,” no matter what patrons ordered it. | No sooner had this determined stand been taken than a number of Indianapolis firms stated they had te refused much “paper” of this kind, but inas- * much as the billboards of that city have been has were evidently far in the minority. Just about this time the agitation sprang up in another part of the country, with a well-known man and a vigorous fighter heading it. Bird Coler, for many years prominently identified with. the polities of Brooklyn and Greater New York, called the attention of New Yorkers to the immorality, the hypocrisy and absolute dishonesty of representa- tion of-the “paper” which adorus the boards of the “art gallery” at the entrance to Brooklyn Bridge. “High on the walls and fences, in the shop win- dows and-on the elevated platforms, virtually every- where in sight,” asserts Mr. Coler, “is "the bill aa- nouncing the Dainty Maids’ convention, In reality these maids weigh 250 pounds apiece, are red in the face, have voices like a second mate and ask stran- gers to ask them to supper after the performance, but the posters exhibit them as delicate young things, somewhat over-decorated with jewelry, not much addicted to skirts, and the clubwoman natural- ly views them with presumptive alarm and studies the countenance of her husband when he is in the vicinity of these exhibits. “If the husband should prove impervious to the charms of Dainty Maids, who knows how soon he may succumb to the blandishments of the Empress of the opium joints, for wherever she is are killings, 5 E Widearded with it for years, the refusing number FFERSON CIT: REAKS INTO LITERATURE ARRYING a loaded revolver just as a mat- ter of course, running about at night with- : out fear of either man or beast or devil, using such polished language as “you bet,” “I Tee as how,” “every man’s got to whittle his wn stick” and “you'd better plough your own fur- ae ow * the Jefferson City girl has at last broken in- to.

I trust you will count me also among your friends.” “You are very kind, Count,” responds the Jefferson City heroine. “You know we Americans have a weakness for titles. You flatter me.” I was intense- ly American for the moment, and almost put a touch of Western twang in my accent. “You are really American, then?” “You bet. From Missouri, Jefferson City; as fine a town in as fine a State as anywhere in the world. Not that I run down these old-world places in Europe. Have you been in the States?” “To my regret, no.” . “Ah, then you haven’t seen what a city should be. Fine broad streets, plenty of air space and handsome buildings.” | : “I know that American women are handsome,” he replied, with a look intended to put the compli- ment on me. But I was not taking any. = guess we reckon looks by the dollar measure, Count. You sliould see our girls at home.” “You must regret living away from your country.” “Every man must whittle his own stick, you know, and every woman, too. Which means, I have to make my own way.” “You are more than capable, I am sure.” “I ean try to plough my own furrow, sure,” All of which is merely a sample of the brand of Jefferson City conversation which the novelist uses throughout. An even more interesting picture of life as it is lived in Missouri's capital city, acording to the novelist, at least, is that in which the novelist paints his heroine carrying firearms as a matter of course, as though she stepped outside the door to kill a wolf before retiring and shot an Indian every morning before breakfast. The Jefferson City heroine, (hris- tabel Gilmore, is telling the story in the first person. She says. “This done, I set out to return to Madame’s. | was not nervous at being out alone at such a time, night prowling having long been a habit with me. I was perfectly able to take care of myself, too: for at home I had been accustomed to carry & re- volver, and was an excellent shot. If anyone inter- fered with me, it was not I who was likely to come worse off.” Miss Gilmore met with plenty of adventure the night in question, even to rescuing a pretty girl from kidnapers, fighting a duel with two armed ruffians and almost being kidnaped herself. But being a Jot. ferson City girl, she was armed, was a good shot and therefore came through the adventure a winner. That the heroine of “By Wit of Woman” hag aj the advantage of training and education which Jef- ferson City offers she is at pains to assure the read- er. She belonged to the elite of Jefferson City so. ciety. She says: “My Uncle Gilmore was a man who had made his own pile and had raised me, as they say ip the eo ry sa pit wt We Aydt spn wi tee) Vl rie druggings, abductions, slave auctions and riots. “Then there are the people who escape from Sing Sing and other shelters in view of the audience, and who live in an atmosphere of crime, profanity and gun smoke—robust type admired and emulated and announced in prints that especially appeal to the youthful student. . “We might at least variegate the show a bit by painting fewer legs and more portraits of states: men. The lower forms of anatomy have had their day; let us now contemplate the features of the great, that we may be inspired to raise features equally worthy of display.” To all of which the Art Commission, to which the remarks were addressed, breathed a hearty amen, one commissioner saying whet was needed was more pictures of breakfast food and fewer of midnight suppers with champagne bottles littering the floor; more hi,..-idealed men and fewer low-neeked women. A Brooklyn artist, commenting on the suggestion, aids that it might be a good thing for American ‘Women to do as their British cousins did a few years ago; paste up elevating pictures in public and request the people to stop and admire them four minutes daily. It may not be necessary to go to this extreme; this may not be practical, but the action taken by the Indiana billposters and by Mr. Coler is urftioubt- edly sure soon to be generally followed. It was not many years ago that the movement has started to stop the spoliation of natural scen- ery at the hands of the sign painter, “I'ry Smart- er’s Little Liver Pills” and “For that tired feeling, take Atmosphere’s Sarsaparilla” was blazoned from the Atlantic to the Pacific on. every available rock, nantly demanded. that Nature be saved from the advertising vandals, The movement grew apace anid the reprehensible practice of the sign painter was soon stopped. One may _ride through the country now and see rocks, waterfalls, teees, grass and even now and then, possibly, the purple cow of the im- pressionistic painter, without having patent medi- cine advertisements confronting him at every. turn of the road. The purists won that fight, the crusade against the “paper” displayed on city billboards is an out: growth, ‘or continuation, of that; and victory is just as likely to result. The crusade is not solely against the pictures showing ‘betighted chorus girls astride champagne bottles and dancing airly on the tip of the new moon; the posters advertising the lurid melodramas of the cheapet theaters are to come under the ban, too. “Escaped From Sing Sing,” “Why Girls Leave Home,” “The Dangers of Working Girls,” “Why Women Sin,” “In the Toils,” “Foiled Again” and a half hundred other melodramas are-in the habit ot posting “paper” showing the triumph of vice over virtue; the murder, the accusation, the struggling young girl in the clutches of her abductor, the coun- terfeiters at work making money faster than Pier- pont Morgan could count it. All sorts and condi- tions of pictures showing crime emblazoned every- where, in front of schools and churches, arotind wn finished public buildings; wherever a chance eye ts likely to rest for a minute. There was need of the reform in Indianapolis and it was taken up; there was need of it in Brooklyn and New York and it was taken up; is there need of it in St. Louis, and will it be taken up? . ag At ERE sett Haas eo er DEEN, ANY ’ , : : 4 : The matter has come up before several organisa- tions within the past few days. As a first step in the correction of any abuses that may exist, a series of photographs showing billboard conditions in St. Louls has been taker. Brooklyn has already gone so far in the crusade as to pass the following ordinance by a tnanimous vote of the Board of Aldermen: “No person shail put, pasté, print, nall, maintain or display upon any billboard, fence, building, frame or structure, and in amy manner expose to public view as an advertisement of any show, play or per- formance any indecent print or any picture or cut tending to represent the doingw of ahy criminal act * ¢ * tending to deprave the morals of individuals or shocking to the sense of deventy, or tending to Mmeite the mind to acte of immorality or crime, or to familiarise and accustom the mind of young persons with the same.’’. 7 A writer in one of the niagazines of fin has thus hit the matter off as conditions were a few years ago rather than as they remain today: En route from eddy Gotham town to Slumberville, Pee-ayé, The grasa was green as emerald, the trees were | | od ing out . a Hark!

I was, in short, rid- ing for a fall, and I got it, and fell far; being badly hurt in the process. “The trouble came in New York, where I went when I was 18; setting out with the elated convic- tion that I was going to make a sort of triumphal social progress’ over the bodies of many discom- fited and out-classed rivals. “But I found that in New York I was just one among many girls, most of them richer and much prettier than I; a nobody with provincial manner- isms among heaps of somebodies with an air and manner which I at first despised, then envied, and soon set to work at 90 miles an hour speed to imi- tate.” : Not satisfied with speaking of “the provincial mannerisms” of Jefferson City the author, on the very next page, proceeds to refer to his heroine as “a raw miss from the West.” Jefferson City must bear its new honor as médest- ly as possible. St. Louis has been used by Winston Churchill, Mary Dillon and other novelists, Hannibal has long been famous as the scene of Mark Twain's best stories, even Kansas City has had ~he honor to figure now and then in a novel, the most notable ex- ample being the story published a year or so ago under the title of “Henderson.” But Jefferson: City has been late in being thrust into the limelight; it may be unace ~ustomed to the glare and glamour for a while, but it will get used to it. Its raw misses from the West who sling “you bets” and “sure” and “whittle your own sticks” through their conversation and earry firearms as they wear hats will read this new novel with inter- est. The Jefferson City heroine is reatiy a wonder, she sets all the great European diplomats at each other’s throats and thwarts them all, never for a moment being in any danger of defeat herself. {f Jefferson City has any more Christabel Gilmores at home it is destined, just as soon as the discovery is mhade known, to be the most famous city not only in Missouri and in America, but in the entire world. an ke The married and unmarried women of the United States of Colombia, South America, are designated by the manner in which they wear flowers in their } T "$53 HAD HIS SKULL TREPRINLD THREE TIMES AND Lrveo HE surgical operations illustrated here were performed in America hundreds of years be- fore Columbus discovered the New World, The skulls are those of prehistoric Inca men of Peru and their ghastly perforations show that the ancient surgeons knew many things about the science of tre- phining that we of the twentieth century are just learning. And yet scientists say it is not improba- ble that these delicate and dangerous operations RE you a cracksman! If s0, you may have heard of the invention recently completed by one of the best-known “jail birds” of the, Southwest, This inventive genius had the nerve or “gall” to ask the United States Government for a patent on his contrivance. What he invented is nothing more nor less than a “burglar’s vest,” a pocket apparatus to place around the middle of the body when one goes “a-robbin’.” The pockets are arranged so that every tool known to the craft is placed in a separate compartment. Of course, the revolver is placed so that it is easily gotten at when needed. The “Black Jack” is sus- pended from a heed near the pocket that is intended hair, the former wearing them on the right vide | and the latter on the left. s UNDA Y M AGALINE—ST.

The name under which the pat- ent was to be known, if the Government had pat- ented it, was “The Burgiar’s Friend.” There have been many cranks produced in the Southwest, but this vast section has never yet pro- duced a man foolish enough to think that the Gov- ernment would favor an invention that would aid law- breakers. Raffles could not have desired a bet- ter outfit for the trade of burgiary, if it is a trade, than the man above mentioned tried to patent. He is certainly not a novice at his chosen profession. The most gentlemanly of burglars could wear his in- vention under a Prince Albert with no danger of de- tection.
