“Home, Sweet Home.’ Too Much for St. Lduisan. The soft strains of ‘‘Home., Sweet Home,’ floated through an open win- dow in far-off Mexico, probaly chrene- ed the entire life course of ‘Jakie” Green, for several years an us] ler at tne l'nion Station in St. Lou ‘lakie’’ was satisfied with the daily ‘routine of life in this city until he oda the path of J. L. ‘Starr. Hunt. a ealthy lawver and mine-owner of Mex as City. Hunt took a fancy to the young man and, after several trips to St. Louts, proposed a trip to Mexico. where Hunt promised him a lucrative position and an opportunity to gain an education. Hunt is a bachelor and rich, and his allure- ments finally won the father and moth- er, Mr. and Mrs. Siegmund Green. and the son decided to go. February 2 be left the Union Station, with hopes high. “When you want to write to him,’ said Hunt, as the two boarded the train, “address him at 13 Calle de San fFran- cisco, Mexico City. Friday morning Green entered his old home here at 18]2 Carr street, threw his arms about his mother’s neck and be- tween sobs murmured. “There's no place like home.’ Then he told the story of his four days’ residence in Mexico City, and how the melody of the-old song had affected him.

HOWE HAS FIGHT F HIS LIFE AT NEXT PRIMARIES Delegations Hostile to Chair- man From Nearly Every Ward Expected. -_-— eee ALOE IS WEST END CHIEF

Koeln and Pat Clarke Direct Opposition ia Other Sections, DICK JOHNSON IN FRAY He Files Rival to Goldstein's Delegation in the Twentieth, The filing of publican City of the Board delegations to the Re- Convention -at the office of Election Commis- Sioners, which closed at noon Sat- urday indicates that there will be a bitter fight between the Howe and anti-Howe factions in nearly every ward. The delegations put up Satur- day will be voted on at the primaries held March 6, and the successful dele- gations will be seated in the conven- tion the folowing day. The convention will nominate 28 candidates for the House of Delegates, six candidates for the Council and fouw® candidates for the School Board. Howe sent his check to Commissioners to pay for Eleetion regular the the Republican delegations from all but the | ith, Eleventh, Twelfth Vards, These are the | which the committee- men failed to avail themselves” of liowe’s offer to pay the filing fee of | for each friendly delegation. Delegations in opposition ular Renublican aelegation were from the Fifth Sixth, lFourteenth, Fifteenth, Sixteenth, Kighteenth, Twen- ’ tleth, Twenty-third, Twenty-fifth, Twenty-sixth, Twenty-seventh anil Twenty-eighth Wards. Opponents Claim Four. The six wards in which the Ilowe faction has no representative will have sixty-two delegates to the convention. The opposition to Howe says that these delegates will be unalterably opposed to the chairman of the convention. Owen, Aloe and Koeln, who are the prime jeaders in the Howe opposition, say that they are certain to win in the Sixth, Eighteenth, Twenty-fifth and Twenty- eighth Wards, and possiblv in tne Twentieth, which will give them 3° more delegates in the convention, or 100 in all, just 18 less than enough to con- trol. They are depending upon carrying two or three more wards and thereby having enough delegates to control the convention, in which event Howe will be deposed, and the delegates from each ward will be given the power to nomi- nate their own candidates. Ex-Sheriff P. H. Clarke of the Twenty-third filed a delegation in op- position to that of Committeeman L. Cc. Dyer. Clarke heads his own dele- gation and is confidént that he will win. The Twenty-third has six dele- gates. Peculiar conditions are disclosed in the Tenth. Committeeman Damm has _put up the regular Republican delega- tion. Both Henry Besch and his brother, “Cooney” Besch, have put up delegations in. opposition to the reg- oC ular Republican delegation. Col. “Dick” Johnson of the Twen- tieth Ward, was one of the first té file delegations Saturday in opposition to the Howe delegation, headed by Com- mitteeman Goldstein... The Twentieth is entitled to six delegates. Gold- Stein's delegation tineludes himself, George Ziesing, Thomas Hollingshead, William Winkler, Edward Rogers and George Welker. Goldstein wanted to bet that his’ delegation would win, but Col. Johnson, who is Assistant Circuit Attorney, declares that his delegation will carry the day against lilowe and the committeeman. First, Second, Te and Twenty-first only wards from Aloe in Fray Again, There will be a big fight in the Twen- ty-eighth for the seventeen delegates. lauis P. Aloe, who was brought into the fight by the importunities of Itd- ward Koeln and his associates on the city committee who are in revolt against Ilowe, heads ‘the delegation. ~~-Peter M. Hanson, city committeeman, leads the Howe delegation. Each & will put up a hard fight. ' Gabriel Roth and F. ww. Schlingman , are leading the Howe opposition in the . Fifteenth Ward. They filed their dele- gation early Saturday. Its members are Lioyd. Borntraeger, Caspar. Krale- man, former committeeman, K. Green- Stein and U. G.

Of ¥ course, this story isn’t a New England story, strictly speaking, but many of the 4 charficters are of New England birth and training, and the Wilkins touch is in evidence throughout, The pitiful tragedy of the second marriage of poor Harry Edgham, Maria’s father, is esentially a Mary E. Wilkins tragedy, and it struck me as proving beyond question that the author hasn’t lest one whit of the dis- tinetive tou¢eh that first made her famous.’ “All the characters are in keeping with the author’s best achievement,” agreed the Old Playgoer. “Each is clearly drawn and full of individuality, and the story must needs be carefully and appreciatively read to enjoy its high- ¢ Aunt Maria, better than any other o0 character in the story, except that of Maria herself,’ said The Girl, “even though I did have to laugh at her when she set her cap for Maria’s father after Mrs. Edgham’s death, and I couldn't help but share her indignation when af Harry Edgham chose to marry Ida Slome, the pretty schoolteacher, instead of ° her.

It seems to me that Maria, the heroine of the story, gets very close to one’s heart.

“BLINDFOLDED.” ‘JT & may not like to admit it, but W it is nevertheless true that most of us hava secret melination ‘1 so-called ‘“‘dime novel’ stories. It's afhuman nature to like a ie thrill, and -there eccmes a time when the som- bre atmosphere of problem novels palls on us and we long for a dash of first pilvciples, with the struggle for exist- ence’ @ hand-to-hand test of strength , and cunning. There is really no need to be. ashamed of -this inclination, for "i good .story of this kind is relished all over the world, whether the remark- able “Sherlock Holmes” or his humbler prototype, “Old Sleuth,” be the hero. All this is written in justification of Earle Ashley Walcott’s “Blindfolded,”’ a thrilling novel of San Francisco's un- derworld, Mr. Walcott has wrought far raore syccessfully in this story of men with red Liood than most other novel- ists, who are trying to solve our polite teal and social problems as an incident to love stories, for he has succeeded in making a book that hasn't a dry page in it. In the vernacular, “there is al- ways something doing,’ and, in most cases, it almost makes your hair stand on end : The plot is about as complicated as human ingenuity could make it, but ' Mr. Waleott has worked it out so artis- tically that no part of it ever seems to be. inconsistent with any other part, and the reader is kept guessing what is going to happen next and how it will all end. The battle on the San .Fran- cisco mining exchange for a rich mine between two financial banks and.a de- acription of a thrilling episode in China- town are two of the book's finest feat- ures. Woven throughout the wealth of adventure is a pretty love story. If you like yarns of this class and will start on “Biindfolded,”’ it's a safe bet that you won't lay it down till you've fin- ished it. (The Bobbs Merrill Co.)

Koek “attempts to show that monistic materialism, which denies all the pos- tulates of religion and religious ideal- ism, is the necessary outcome of econo- mie evolution. These writers and a few others of their way of thinking, insist that the coming man must be a mater- ialist, or, as they prefer to call it, a monist. Why? The answer seems to be that the French and German Socialists still feel the tvranny of the state ecclesiastical structure, and are of the opinion that this is the all of religion, and that re- ligion itself must be overthrown before economic justice can prevail. In this view American Socialists will not agree, because here the church is not tvyrannous and religion is free. Dietz- gen and the rest of these writers are fighting a man of straw. And they are doing much to disc redit German Soclal- ism in America. THE WILL TO BE WELL. In his work, ‘‘The Will to Be Well,” the fifth ecition of which has just made its appearance, ¢ ‘tharles Brodie Patterson draws a comparison between what 1S termed ‘“‘The New Thought”? and Chris- tian Sciénee. He declares that the New Thought movement was founded by Dr. Quimby and that Christian Science was founded by Mrs. Eddy, thereby showing that he does not consider Mrs. Eddy to have secured her ideas from Dr. Quim- by. He then goes on to give an expla- nation of the two beliefs. If his descrip- tion of the New Thought is no more correct than his exposition of the be- liefs of Christian Science, the book is not to be considered as authority upon either. It is probable, however, that he has made a study out of the former, while the other has been given only casual examination. Be that as it may, there is much good in the work as may be deduced from-the following, taken froin the preface. ‘In the mind of man there is a dawn- ing of a new and vital fact that ihe authority of law is resident in his Hfe, that health, strength and happiness as conditions of mind and Body must be made manifest by conscious effort on his part by the use of spiritual quali- ties and mind faculties; that through the in-dwelling spirit his mind must be quickened and renewed and _ his body strengthened and made whole. In this, the fifth presentation of this work, the author has, in the addition of four new chapters, given his latest thought on the all. important subjects of mental and physical health.” (Funk & Wagnalls, Publishers.) “CRESS.” St. Louisans and residents of Quincy, Hil., are interested in the pretty little story of “Cress” by Clara Hiemenz, since Mrs. Hiemenz, whose calling cards bear the name Mrs. Charles Henry Hiemenz, is a St Louis society woman who spent her girlhood in Quincy. The story has to do with the love sacrifice of an orphan girl for those who took the place of her mother. The book is mark- ed by a choice of words in keeping with the simple life of a voung woman reared in a small village and by a pretty senti- ment concerning strawberries and roses. The illustrations are well done and the decoration of strawberry vines and fruit give the book individuality. The plot is good and out of the ordinary. The description of the marriage of the heroine is pleasing, as are the two or three letters which have place in the book. The book is like most real life in that there are no great scenes; things hap- pen and the world goes casually on re- gardless of heartbreaks. The heroine of the story never knows that her sacri- fice is needless, the lover she thought faithless permits her to judge him but

NOTES FROM THE PUBLISHERS The man who in our times has had the widest acquaintance with the literature of the time of Shakspeare died a few days ago in London. He was Mr. W., F. Craig. His learning was marvelous and his: scholarship profound. He had made extensive preparations for an ex- haustive Shakspeare Lexicon, with il- lustrations from all the literature of that period. Miss Seawell is always bright, viva- cious, entertaining. lier latest novel, “The Secret of Toni’ (D. Appleton & Co.), is no exception to the rule. The scene is laid in provincial France and the story tells how Antoine (or Toni) Marcel, through his great love for a gir] half American and half French, rose from a poor boy in his widowed mother’s candy store to be the most worthy, blameless corporal in the French army, in his own eyes at least. The charac- ters are well drawn, the local color is faithfully maintained and the plot is full of dramatie action. Thomas F. Millard, the war _ corre- spondent, has:just returned from another trip ‘round 4he world. He spent much | time in Kerea and Manchuria and he will contribute to the March Scribner's a striking paper on ‘'The Situation me Munchuria,’" showing the designs of | i Japan to keep her hold on the trade and the government of both countries. The latest addition to. Bell's Series of | Great Masters in Painting and Sculp- \! ture is “Anthony Van Dyck,” by Lionel oy Cust, M. V. O. Mr. Cust is possibly the foremost living authority on Van Dyck. The present treatise is practically a condensed version of his exhaustive | work on the painter, which was pub- lished in 1900. ‘Phe present book con- tains an adequate account of Van Dyck’'s life, descriptions of all his. prin- cipal works, and a large number of illustrations. “The Traveler’s Joy,” a first story by Ernest Frederic Pierce, has just been published by E. P. Dutton & Co. The Traveler's Joy is a South of England eountry inn, ten miles from the Sea, as the crow flies. <A traveler finds it fol- lowing his fancy, and there in the course of the story finds the joy of his life. The story is characterized — by marked intimacy with nature, and its appreciation is expressed in the goed * love of the hero and heroine. The life | in nature and in them beats as by one passionate impulse. 8B...

Eddie Cochems decided yesterday to secure Handlan’s park for the coming three or four weekg or during the time Howell has the tute- lage of the varsity diamond stars. For the infield and battery, the lineup for the season looks this way to How- ell: Sehenke, Young and Porter, pitche ers; Acker, cateher; Snyder, first base; Robinson, - second base; Howe, third base; Nebit, shortstop; Ruggles and Lonegan may yet show up in pitching form. The lot not large enough o'clock, Students Are Eager. The greatest trouble in rounding out the student is their eagerness to start in with a rush, throwing to the limit of their strength and performing in a fashion calculated to put the best play- ers on the crippled list in the firts few days. This Howell will not allow them to do. In fact he keeps tab on every ball thrown on the lot and allows each man to throw a good many slow balls to ger the moiion and only a few fast ones to acquire speed and controi. How. eil’s experience has been that a man has to learn baseball slowly at the opening and that he: must get -around to fast work by Gegrees at the opening of every scason. 4 St. Louis U. and other college teams have alwavs been handicapped by the inability. of pitchers to last out a game, and Howell is seeing to it that the bound-up shoulder and. strained liga- ments shall mot result while the boys are under his coaching. Each) pitcher is allowed to throw about 100 slow balls, then ®5 medium and 10 or 15 fast ones, There his work stops and, until. the muscles ‘harden to the work, there will be no sensational curves, spitballs, drops and other delights of the vouth- ful twirlers. until their arms are out of their swaddling clothes.

Although there has been no long hitting as yet, at bunting and short. ground drives, the whole. infield has’ demonstrated that good eves are in evidence.

THADES [IN VIEW Mertes May Go for Moriarity of Highlanders—Grady Is Also Marked.

WILL CLING TO BYRNE When the National League owners and officials assemble in New York this month, Stanley Robison of the Cardi- nals and Manager John McCloskey will there with decks cleared for action, prepared to trade “Sandow’’ Mertes and Mike Grady. This was announced: by Robison last night. It seems that Mertes developed man- agerial aspirations towards the fag end of last season, and before taking- his departure from St. Louis he sought out Robison and wanted McCloskey's po- sition as manager of the Cardinals. Rob- ison said, “‘Nay, nay,’ and straightway there appeared a deep scowl of discon- tent upon the face of the big fielder. Right there and then it was decided to dispose of Mertes, and an offer from Clark Griffith of the New York Ameri- cans, who said he would trade Third Baseman Moriarity fdr Mertes, was re- ccived. It was considered by McClos- key, but. didn’t -—pan out at the time. Griffith may be offered Mertes now or some other club given a chance at him. Mertes was received by McCloskey from the New York Giants at the same time Catcher Marskall came from that.club to the Mound City. : It is a question will land this vear. National League may take -him and may not. If Mike doesn't secure a berth with the Giants, it begins to look like the minor leagues for him. While he is a good sticker, Grady has been dissatisfied with the Cardinals for some time and McCloskey has now de- cided to secure another. plaver through him. St. Louis brought Grady back to life when he was playing with the Kan- sas City club after he had gone back to the minors, as the setting of 10 vears of starring with the Philadelphia club, Hiarry Arndt says that his arm Arndt played third last vear until his and he was clubbing the ball with a vengeance.

FNAL SKATING HACE TONIGHT Champion Harley Davidson Fa- vorite to Win One Mile Championship Event.

SANFORD HAS A CHANCE Harley Davidson of St. Paul, Minn., champion roller skater of the world, and four others, each of whom won one of the five preliminary one-mile races at the Jai Alai rink this week will meet in the final race for the one- mile championship at the Jai Alaj this evening. In spite of the fact that some of the best skaters in the country are competing in the races three St. Louis boys qualified. They are Jim Sweeney, Leo Jones and Earl Sanford. Oscar Nauman of Detroit will be the fifth man. Davidson ts naturally the favorite to win, but there are many persons who declare that if little Earl Sanford, a 16-year-old boy, will be able to keep his feet, he wiil carry off the cham- pionship emblem and a big chunk of the purse of $1000 that is omered for the races, which will be. presented before the boys leave the floor. Thursday night Sanford won from a fast field in 3m. 4 4-5s. Jones won his race in 8m. 5s. Dayidson’s time was 8m. &s. Eittle Sanférd can certainly fly around the track. He takes more chanves of breaking his neck on the turns than an older and more experi- enced professional would ever think of taking. Davidsow® fears little Sanford, al- though Sarl is hardly shoulder high to half of the contestants. He is a fa- vorite at the rink and if he should hap- pen to finish one, two or three he will get 2 great reception from the big crowd that will attend. In the final preliminarv§ race night Oscar Nauman won with Munch of Minneapolis second. ence Graves of St. Louis was Osear Blank of St. Louis was tanced. The finish of the race was ex citing. Munch led for the first eight laps when Nauman succeeded in get- ting by him. Munch tried hard to pass Nauman several times in the next four laps, but could not quite make it and Nauman won by about two feet. The time was Jm. 6s. Tonight's final race will be started at 9:45 p. m. Next Monday the preliminary races for the two-mile championship will be started. The final for two miles will be skated a week from tonight.

Four Good Contests Scheduled at the M. A, C.—Heavy- weights on the Card.

CAMPION’S WILD PUNCH Five amateur bexing bouts will com- pose the program at the Missour!l A. C. this evening. The bouts are tryouts for the .regular M. A. C. amateur boxing team While one er two good contests are expected, it is hardly probable that the bouts whl attract much attention among the club members. The regular ring wll not be put up, but instead the ring from the boxing room will be put in. the center of the floor. Tommy Sullivan, boxing instructor, will act as referee. Twe bouts in the 16-pound ciuss, one at 138 pounds and ene in the heavyweight division, will make up the card. In the 100-pound class four boys will draw for opponents. The winner making the best showing will be made a member of the } A. C. team and will represent the club in the dual tournament with the Milwaukee A.C. At 138 pounds Fred Coyne, who is said to be one of the most promising light- weights that has been developed in the amateur ranks in the past year, will go on against H. J. Romeg. Romeg is in fine condition, and if he knows the game should be able to put up a good bout. Big Pat Campion and Jim Frey pair of heavyweights, will at least fur- nish some fun. Campion weighs close to 200 pounds, and has no fat. He is will- ing, but does not know much about the game. Frey is an unknown. Campion expects to make a good showing, al- though he has had considerable difficulty 4n securing men to box with him, be- cause of the fact that he is big, and therefore has such a hard and wild punch. TOMMY SULLIVAN

7 He Is Free to Go to Nevada and Fight Abe Attell for the Championship.

BATTLE IS A SURE GO *“Brooklyn’’ Tommy Sullivan, boxing instructor of the Missouri A. C., had practically the last possible hitch that might develop in St. Louls to prevent his fight with Abe Attell at Tonopah, Shelby, mittee of the club, told Sullivan to go ahead and make the match t he would use his influence to see that he could get a furlough so that he could engage in the contest. For some time the Missourt A. C. has refused to allow any professionali bouts at the club and Sullivan has aiso been prohibited from appearing in any professionai contests.: He was granted a leave of absence to train for his first fight with Attell, which Sullivan won in five rounds. Sullivan and Atteil have agreed on all of the particulars for thelr match. The contest is to be 4 finish at 124 pounds at 6 mp m., the same weight that Sullfvan made for his pre- vious fight with Attell. The $10,000 purse is to be divided @ per cent to the win- ner and 40 per cent to the loser. A referee has not yet been selected, but little difficulty is expected on that point. Manager Mickey Riley of the Casino A. C. of Tonopah its waiting to see whit fights he will have for his cafnivai to be held in April before he announces the date of the Attell-Sullivan contest, Jimmy Britt and Joe Gans will clash at Tonopah about the same time Sullivan and Attell get together. Riley is also making effort to bring together Jimmy Walsh and Frankie Neil. This wouid give him fights for the bantamweight, featherweight and lightweight cham- plonships. Sullivan, outside of dieting himself. has not started training for the fight. Quite a number of the members of the M_ A. «. are figuring on chartering a priva e car to make the- trip to Tone- pah to see the fights, but particulariy the Attell-Sullivan battle. It would be a long. and costly journey, but most of the members of the club are great box- ing enthusiasts and are willing to pay almost reasonable sum to see the hout. Sullivan was declared a winner Attell their previous bout, at West End Prgeeygti areal Pon c ied from the ring on the snouteer: pr yd admirers.
