JEFFERSON CITY, Jan. 3.—Both branches of the législature met at 1) ‘a.m. today, and the first business after the formal. opening was the election of permanent officers. In each House a Btrict party wus cast, the Deuw- crats getting almost all of the offices. J. M. Atkinson of Ripley .County elected Speaker of the House and F. County presi- deft pro tem of the Senate. Both Democratic and vote Republican t nity |; mained Election Became a Certainty FIFTY VOTES AT NOON. Qualified Voters Number 1800, Dull as the day was, the Jefferson | Club's annual election, began at} 9 a. m. Thursday. If anybody had a cipal was good for a scramble, was donated AT ; JEFFERSON CLUB prageis. Jam's Hagerman Jr. Baward patch reporter: “IT have been elected president of the Jefferson Club without seeking the hnn- or, but I am going to try to put it back on the footing of prestige and influence it had under the, presidency of Harry | Hawes.

— deep concern in the: results of the bal- tioneering and bustle such as once characterized the voting when the club had &8#0 members and half as many jobs . to distribute among its adherents. The lack of enthusiasm had its ex-. planation in part in the certainty of the outcome of the case of five of the prin- - offices. August H. Heiman, te: new president, was chosen to that dig- by the first vote cast he: had no opposition. ‘*Tom’’ Francis re- an: ostensible candidate until Wednesday, when he withdrew, leaving | the field to, Heman. Frank M. Estes was chosen first vice-president likewise by default. The secretaryship, Which in past years hecause ee to Edward P. Farrell. And there is a ‘salary for the secretary, too. | ; at the was | be ‘self sacrifice, members heid their caucuses last night - and made their nominations without stubborn contests. These slates went through both houses this morning. ‘he election in the House of Repre- sentatives resuited as follows: J. M. Atkinson of Ripiey County over D. W. Hill of Butler County for Speak- er; 8S. Kk. Botsferd of Knox,oyer A. A. Spear of Osage for Speaker pro tem.; Frank L. Dawson of Lincoln’ over George Killian of Perry for chief clerk; 1». W. Jones of Cooper over William Tideber of St. Louis for assistant chief clerk; W. N. Mckinney of Clay over F. i. Lindquist of Linn for engrossipg clerk; Herman Gove of Osage over S. C. Roach of Camden for enrolling clerk; J. H. Buchanan of Callaway over Fre Ruehrie of Cole for doorkeeper; J. H. Dunklin of St. Francois over J. J. Fow- ler of Putnam for sergeant-at-arms, R. L. Daniels of Reynolds over Sam Keller of Cole for official reporter; Rev. Thom- “es G. Poole of Macon over Rev. B. E. Reed of St. Louis for chaplain; Miss Bessie Boone of Henry over Miss Julia Andra of Cole for folder. In a short address, when escorted to the chair, Speaker Atkinson asked the co-operation of the members in the business of the house. . “IT have only to ask that every mem- ber does his duty,’’ said the Speaker. “While I am Speaker, there will be no avel.rule in this house. Every mem- yer who desires will be heard on every fubject and the gavel will be. used only when necessary to carry on the business of the house.” 7 1 Officers of the Senate. Senator Baumann of St. Louis, nomi- nated a&’ the minority candidate for president of the Senate, Senator A. E. lL. Gardiner of St. Louis County, The permanent Senate officers elected are: President pro tem, F. M. McDavid of Greene; Secretary, C. Roach of Jasper; Assistant Secretary, Lucian Farris of Scott: Official Reporter, C. E. Dewey f Cole; Chaplain, Dr. J. F.

Avery Jr., Gordon. Davis, John Collins, Walter Ragland, Jim Sheldon, Law- rence Deneille and Frank Bradley. That there ts nothing ‘‘cheap’’ about the Senate was shown when it decided to employ more than 100 clerks to trans- act -the legislative business of its 34 , members. The Senate is composed of 23 Demo crats and 11 Republicans. Each Demo- ‘crat has the privilege of appointing four clerks. The Republican Senators will be allowed one clerk each. doorkeeper and other Senate officers employ assistants. Lower House Economical. The clerical force of the Senate will cost the State about $500 a day, or $35,000 for the session. The House is more economical. Its membership of 140 will have about 10) men to transact its cler- jcal affairs. The Republican House minority {s al- lowed two = stenographers and two ages; all the remaining places being aken by the Democrats. The pages re- cCelve $10.50 a week. Usually the House handles from 10 to 1200 bills ant! the Senate about one- third that number. It is explained the gp mye py ong of the average Sengtor equal to that of three Representa- tives. The clerks are not supplied with oe and the letters are in long and. The Benate marched into the House Chamber at 11:30 for a jotnt session at Which the returns of the last general election were canvassed. Licut.-Gov. MeKinley presided over the session. A committee, consisting of Senators iS and Gilmore and Representatives

bbs and Simmons, was appointed by resident McKinley to make a personal ction of the returns. 1e@ House at noon, following the Joint session, appointed a committee to notify the Governor that the House was ready to receive the | age. The Speaker appointed Woods of oward, Muir of Lewis and Hil) of utier. The Governor immediately sent his message to the Houad. } Representative Simmons of Slielby if \ County Offered a resolution asking that Fs: Leekicialaii

that only Missourt River water the. portraits of Thomas K. Niedrine- haus and Richard C. Kerens, defeated candidates for Senator two vears ago, be placed upon the walls of the House. Simmons said he desired to cover up the ink spote caused by throwing ink bot- ties at the clock on the)closing day of the last session. The House adjourned shortly after moon until 2 oclock, when the Gover- nor’s message was read. Representative Grifffth of Bates County brought up the firet freak res- Olution of the session. It provided be @runk by members. Temporary Speak- er Crossley referred the resolution ta Ee Se ee en imaginary committee on “irrigation.”

The following offi- re were elected: A. Friedman presi- a Friedman vice-president, W. H. Bh dent, Lester Friedman tary, Albert I. Stix treasurer, L. ngley director.

If David P. Leahy voted for himself when he dropped his slip into the box |. 9:98 a. m., he assured himself the position of treasurer. He was alone in | race.

Sheridan will be sergeant- at-arms if he livesMhrough the day. He had a chance to withdraw, but. didn't and his name is the only one to be voted for the place. — “Wait ahd see the contest for the third vice-presidency,’’ said .a policeman who strolled into the ‘club. But the champions of either Andrew J. Butler or John F. Hines or John P. McDonough were not there buttonholing voters or contracting ‘‘tabs’’ for drinks. ‘No one pretended to be able to pick the winner of the race for the third vice-presidency. This uncertainty and the selection of seven from among 10 candidates for the directorate furnished the only spice in the election. 7 The candidates for directors are T. F. Almon, W. Christy Bryan, Campbell Cummings, Adolph Elsner, Edward F. John F. Lee, Julius Lesser, Michael K. MeGrath, Frank X. Moore a*d Samuel Rosenfeld. MeGrath is the only one of last year’s directors who wants the office again. . 1800 Eligihle to Vote.

The 56th January Special Price Sale _ Women’s Muslin Underwear and Corsets VER and over again, since the opening of this great sale, one might hear the significant remark, “I always buy my Muslin Underwear at ‘Vanderwoort’s,,” and the speaker in each case smiled as if to add “and have never been disappointed.” 4 Superiority seems to emanate from every table—every counter—of white garments, and the secret of this superiority is self-evident the moment you take a garment into your hands. The fabric is better, the shapes are strictly new, the trimmings more tasteful, the workmanship more thorough, and, most im- portant to many women, all of our Underwear is built on generous lines—not a garment, not even the very Jjow-priced ones, is skimped.

In the ascertainment of th e A well-known authority makes the statement that with a mixture of dandelion, kargon and sarsaparilla he would give prompt relief to any sufferer of rheumatism or the usual forms of backache, caused by inactive, clogged kidneys. He further stated that many cases of years’ standing which failed to yield to the healing waters of the famous health resorts or the usual remedies as prescribed, salicylate of soda, colchicum, nlitcnpinat readily relieved by the use of this simple mixture: Fluid Extract Dande- lion, one-half ounce; Compound Kargon, one ounce; Compound Syrup Sarsaparilla, three ounces. Taking a teaspoonful dose after each meal and at bedtime. A well-known local druggist, when approached upon the subject, stated that while this prescription, as written, is new, the ingredients are continu- ally prescribed by the best physicians, and any good prescription pharmacy has them; they are all of vegetable extraction, inexpensive and harmless to use and are mixed by shaking well in a bottle. If these claims, made for this mixture, are only partly correct, it would seem that no sufferer here could afford to leave this prescription untried, Mix the above named amount, which figures to last one week, and take it, as uo harm can possibly follow its use and it may be just what you need to make you well and healthy again.

W, 193, known as the Elkins law. The charge is that ‘the defendant obtained the transporta- of its property by various railway companies at rates less thak those named in the carriers’ published sched- ules. The offenses are alleged to have -been committed -prior to the enactment of the law approved June 29, 196, known as the rate law. The indictments were returned Aug. 27, 1906.’’ The Court ruled against the defend- ant’s contention that the Elkins law was enacted really to prohibit the em- ployment of indirect methods to ob- tain preferential rates, it being the de- fendant’s contention that it was not a violation of the law, if a railway com- pany dealing directly with a gave that shipper a cut rate.

At 33; and 50 Per Cent Reductions ONDAY night at 10:30, while we were preparing for the White Sale in the Basement MM Salesroom, the cap blew off one of the automatic sprinkler pipes and drenched the stock in the immediate vicinity. Several thousand dollars’ worth of Sheets, Pillow Cases. Mus- lins. ete., ete., were damaged and were immediately removed to stockrooms and held until the loss had been adjusted by the insurance corpany. Water doesn’t hurt goods of this character to a great extent, that is if they are dried within a short time, but of course they are not as fresh looking or as salable as they were, consequently a liberal allowance was made by the insurance -adjuster (Wallace Butler), and we in turn offer these goods to you at a third to one-half less than regular. The sale will be held in the Basement and will continue while the goods last. * About 60 Pieces of Bleached Muslin Bleached Pillow-Case Cloth Comprising many of the most popular brands, About thirty pieces of this; 42 and 45 inches such as Fruit of the Loom, Lonsdale, Black-. wide; very highest grade of goods included stone, Fitchville, Berkley and Old Glory; ali . in this lot; because they are slightly. water-~ more or less damaged by water—- damaged you ean buy it as follows: ‘ ) i .

proclaim that the eountry is at its “high tide of prosperity.” They support the claim by official statistics of development in all directions. The statistics are probably exaggerated, or at least ma- nipulated as official statistics published for a pur- pose usually are. Still, the “prosperity” is as actual as the protest. One question with which the protest concerns the “prosperity.” In all its phases, this ts familiar enough, in and out of Germany. The still more im- portant point is of the release of energy, which dis- closes itself in the high tide both of prosperity and of protest. The conditions of Germany, in their degree, are those of the civilized world, including such op- posite extremes of civilization as the United States and Turkey. The world, including even Turkey and Persia, as far as they have been dragged into prog- ress by general causes which move the world, is de- veloping now as the result of many minor causes all Summed in the single cause of the release of pop- lular energy. 4 In Germany, as the typical country of Conti- nental Europe, where there has been an almost evenly matched struggle between the forces of: re- lease and restriction, the first agency of release was necessarily political. German impulses of increasing individual and: national energy forced constitutional government. Increasing peace and increasing popu- lation followed: increasing freedom! of initiative. Another way of stating this simple fact is that as an increasing number of people were left freer to act in their own ways, they showed not only in- creasing activity; but gave an increasing net result for right over wrong. They vindicated increased liberty, not only by increasing numbers, but by in- creasing production, just as far as,they .were left undisturbed by policies of “blood and iron.” These policies shut off their food supplies from outside, but they continue Ad increase their production and at the same time to ehergize it with the increased protest which is as mitch a result of the release of their energies as the. increased production whose results constitute “prosperity,” statistical and na-

Members of the Business Men’s League and other commercial bodies whose active efforts brought the international balloon race to St. Louis are right in thinking it will be a great advertisement for the city, not only in the United States but in Europe. It is not likely that any advertisement which “makes. talk” will make more talk. It is likely to be the talk-making feature of the entire year, In still another way these same business men, perhaps without fully realizing it, are doing still more to advertise St. Louis. St. Louis shoes, St. Louis buggies, street cars, rail- road cars and other St. Louis ‘manufactures in scores of different forms are being pushed through a wider extent of new territory than any balloon is likely to sail over, before losing its gas and col- lapsing. Ballooning is part sport, part science and part business, ~but this is all business. One thing more St. Louis business men have to do and they will do it. It is to get close and closer to the thirty;odd million people who are willing to get close and’closer to them. That is the main thing now. It cannot be done in the air. It must be done by land and water and through the mixture of both; which forms. the im- passible winter mud of the West. It must be done as s0on as possible and it will be done soon.

| Ble, We are not to compete with the other great cities in those things which have made them great. We are to achieve greatness along new lines. We are to be the world’s balloon center. Count de la Vaulx, who came here to the World’s Fair in the capacity of President of the Paris Aero Club, promised us this, and now the gentlemen who came here from New York to arrange the international drifting match repeat the assurance. We are the biggest city in the world absolutely and far-reachingly surround- ed by land. Ballooning has progressed until there is but one recognized peril— water. Balloons have ceased to blow up. They have ceased to be dangerous while in the air. But they have not ceased to drop into convenient expanses of water. Even the dirigible airship will do this, as we have reason to know from the plunge of M. Santos-Dumont at’ Monte Carlo. So the only recognized danger to bal- looning is obviated at St. Louis. It is SAFE. We can all do it. Others will want to do it, and they will come here. Man is determined to navigate what M. Santos-Dumont calls ‘‘the hitherto un- sailed seas."’ He will come here to do it. We will get most of the population of France and much of that of other European countries. New York will suffer heavy defections In our favor. We can laugh at the stork and disband the Million Club. We're going to get adults— millions of 'em.

Health and Beauty. from Members of Mre. Spencer New Year's Clnh met with avenue on —_ Costs Nothing to Try. Nearly everybody knows that char- coal is the safest and most efficient disinfectant and purifier in nature, but few realize its value when taken into the human system for the same cleansing purpose. Charcoal is a remedy that the more you take of it the better; it is not a drug at all, but simply absorbs the vases and impurities always present in the stomach and intestines and car- ries them out of the system. Chareoal sweetens the breath after smoking, drinking or after eating onions and other odorous vegetables. Charcoal effectually clears and im- proves the complexion, it whitens the teeth and further acts as a natural and eminently: safe cathartic. It absorbs the injurious gases which collect in the stomach and bowels; it disinfects the mouth and throat from the poison of catarrh. All druggists sell chareoal in one form another, but probably the best charcoal and the most for the money is in Stuart’s Charcoal Loz- enges ; they are eomposed of the finest powdered Willow echareoal and other harmless antiseptics in tablet form, or, rather, in the form of large, pleas- _ or ant tasting lozenges; the charcoal be- ing mixed with honey. The daily use of these lozenges will tel] soon in a much improved condl- e| tion of the general health, better com- | plexton, blood, and the sweeter breath and purer beauty of it is, that no possible harm can result from their continued but, on the contrary, great benefit. A Buffalo physician, in speaking of the benefits of charcoal, says: “TI advise Stuart’s Chareoal ‘Lozenges to all patients suffering from gas in stomach and bowels, and to clear the complexion and purify the breath, mouth and throat; I also believe the liver is greatly benefited by the daily of them: they cost but twenty- use, although in some sense a_ patent preparation, vet I believe I get more and better charcoal in Stuart’s Char- coal Lozenges than in any of the or- dinary charcoal tablets.” | Send your name and address today for a free trial package and see for yourself.

CTY TOURNAMENT January Meeting Is.a Prelude to the Big National Show Next March. ee ALL ‘GOING SMOOTHLY There are now 9% teams entered for the city bowling tournament. These en- tries were in Monday night and in all probability a few belated ones will swell the entries to over the 100 mark. When the bell rings, Jan. 14, over 100 teams, made up of ‘the best bowlers in St. Louis, will face the alleys. This may be taken as an indication of what is going to happen wen the national tournament comes off in March. ‘he leader of the Friendly Stars. who was the hero of last year’s city tournament, has been induced to come to the front and will have a team lined up. Little rumors and !‘g rumors, all of them more of fancy than of fact, have been passed around concerning the work of the committee of St. Louis Bowling Association says there is ab- solutely no foundation to any ofthese rumors and that the side issue #f the tournament are not being discussed by the commiitee, and they are receiving no consideration. . The Committee Very Busy. “The committee has its hands full to furnish entertainment for the swarm of bowlers and their friends,” says he, ‘“‘who will pour into the city in March. We expect over 15,000 people to come to St. Louis on the strength of the low rates to prevail on all of the railroads, and St. Louisans hardly appreciate what a task we have to prepare for a meet of this kind. We have the building to furnish and fit up, about 260 people to employ, the prizes to arrange for and the judges to select, besides answering the thousands of inquiries that will from now on be pouring into the Euclid ave- nue office. Other cities, a little envious of our success in getting the tourna- ment, have tried to give.out the im- pression that St. Louis bowlers had an elephant on their hands fn getting ready for the tournament. While the job is a big one, it is not an elephant by any means, and we will get away with it all rizht.” Fine for Mr. Muench. F. J. Muench, a dowler of five weeks’ experience, has it somewhat on the old- er bowlers of the city. He succeeded in capturing the first prize for the highest score during the month of December on the De Soto alleys and incidentally he holds the alley record with a high score of 288. A. C. Jeddison took second prize for the month with 279, and John Saun- ders was third with 266. President Drake seems to have dis- covered the fountain of youth and, al- though one of the oldest men in 8St. Louis who swings a bowling ball, he pulled down a 290 score at the Grand al- leys Wednesday. His first game of the year was 222. Frenchy Blelock !Is very modest. He says he {s the only good bowler in St. Louis who does not boost himself. While not a sensational bowler, his work is of the consistent variety that goes a long way towards winning games. Mudd tore off an alley record over at the Grand Wednesday. In three games he totaled 768, an average of 256. After a holiday vacation lasting a week the St. Louis Ten Pin League re- sumed its games Wednesday evening. The bovs are all back from their Christ- mas trips and are ready to contest with renewed vigor for the honors of the league. The captain of the Grands says he is going to diet his players on hot coffee and St. Paul sandwiches. He started by having these light refreshments served during the game Wednesday VALE HAS ORD NEW BACING SHELL _—

Not at All Influenced by the English Criticism of Ameri- can Boats,

FILLEY HELPS HARVARD That Yale is not much influenced by the English criticism of American-built racing shells, is borne out by the fact that John Kennedy, the well-known professional coach, went to Boston last week and placed an order with Boat Builder Davy of Cambridge for a new eight-oared shelf. The new craft will be somewhat finer ‘drawn on both ends, but will carry all which characterized the rowed on the Thames against the Cambridge crew, being 2: inches beam amidships, Mr. Kennedy was in the hulkiness too much of a ‘hurry to discuss rowing, but said that the material at Yale was little more so than year. The new which is a foot used last year. The winter work in rowing at the uni- versities will soon be started. A fair idea can be obtained of coming changes at Harvard as foreshadowed by the closing days on the water, During the closing days of the prac- tice on the river, Capt. O. D. Filley of St. Louls was very much in evidence on the smaH end of the megaphone. He coached the varsity material from the launch several times, and that fact, supplemented by boathouse gossip, gives rise to the belief that he will ave much to do with shaping the destinies of the Harvard oarsmen in their cam- paign against Cornel! and Yale, Capt. Filley is now engaged in busi- ness with a well-known banking house in Boston, that has been noted for {ts connection With past captains and coaches at Harvard, and the assumption i¢ that he will have ample time to jn- ject some of his enthusiasm, college spirit and knowledge of rowing into the romising, a was the case last boat will be 61 feet long, longer than the one crew. That Capt. Filley was impressed by what he saw on the Thames was proven by the manner In which he coached the crew on his return. He went in for greater hinge tmovement in the waist, and, consequently, a harder body lift at the beginning of the stroke. It wii] be found that next year’s Harvard crew will have almost as pronounced British style as the ‘88 crew, who rowed with hollow backs and were beaten at New London by Yale's record crew, ean sai ° ~£$lways Be Punctual. a hieb-acrade Watch on our Buy easy Credit Lirias Go. 3d” oor Carleton wine” | ¢ 100 TEAMS IN THE | ‘ - a Gh “EN 7 . % % Stas pike oh ‘ : - tee ott Rage LORS 2 gs Paes et sf STO : yee eg se" Sa fa an 2 Ae er : ne Tang pesige 4 : ee a . : ‘ OR 5 es e ; Sa Os 4 % ¥ moe . = 1% ee ; ‘ Z + t: * : re te 3 ws ye ree ae ei ee pes - : ; ¥, Sear ee: “ >. fe Satie? eS ae : v - vs y a ‘i a % ° Tee, i eats ” x ni — x - . ' BAN JOHNSON RESENTS THE “ACTIONS OF CHARLEY a. Saad cm A A A ei li ll = A et Rt A ce cee. Ae ARE ee BN

The attempt of the National League Schedule Committee to regulate the af- fairs of the American League and take more powers than were originally grant- ed to it may cause serious trouble be- tween the two big leagues. Ban B. Johnson of the American League has announced that the committee from his League would not confer with the Na- tional leaguers until President Harry C. Pulliam had settled more definitely the power of his representatives. Johnson its angry with President Charles W. Murphy of the Cubs, who is a member of the committee, for send- ing him a proposed schedule of the Na- tional League for the com!ng season, and intimating in his letter that the American League may build its dates around those of the other organization. Thinks Progress Too Rapid. “The National League Committee is clearly overstepping its powers,” says Johnson. ‘‘The reason for appointing the two bodies was merely to decide upon the opening date and the length of the season. were to have no power. Neither League can draw up a schedule agreeable to the other circuit until we have decided upon the date of opening and the length of the season. ‘T shall appoint no committee from the American League until after the annual meeting of the national commis. sion, which will be held in Cincinnati Jan. 7. At this meeting I will have an opportunity to confer with Pulliam and ascertain just how much power his committee has. I believe that Chairman Ebbets, Barney Dreyfuss and Murphy, who compose the trio representing the other league, are clearly overstepping their powers and attempting to regulate things outside of their province. “If Murphy and his colleagues think that all they have to do is to send mea schedule of their league and tell me that we can have what is left, he is badly mistaken. He will find the American League is just as powerful an organiza- tion as the National League, and that we do not have to take the poor dates left over from the other schedule. “T do not know who made out the schedule, but Pittsburg has all the good things. “The Pirates get all three holi- days at home, five Sundays in Cincin- nati, four in Chicago and three in St. Louis.
