He told the police he went there to spend the night with a chance acquaintance, and that Matthew J. Bayer of 3211 Iowa avenue, came to the room and hit him. He pursued Bayer to the street, bran- dishing a bottle. Both were arrested and locked up on cross charges of dis- turbing the peace. Bayer told Judge Tracy that he want- ed to summon witnesses and the Judge continued the case to Wednesday. He was released on bond, while Martin was held. Martin complained bitterly at be- ing kept from his “window.” He said he lived with his mother at 474 Easton avenue, and that he came here from Pittsburg about two months ago.

AUDDES 100 SOLID FLESH 1S MELTING --——_ @----— Hamlet’s Prayer Answered Most Generously to City Hospital Patient. REDUCED BY 182 POUNDS

Diet and Exercise Have Done the Work on a ‘‘Mountain . of Flesh.’’ Oh. that this toe, teo solid flesh would melt! ii amlet. him- cred- Thus did the Prince of Denmark, self—if Wilhelm Meister may \ be ited—a blond of considerable corpulence, give immortal phrasing to the prayer of the adipose of all generations. This prayer, thinks George Riudde, is being granted to him with more than usual generosity. When he entered the City Hospital in March, 1996, he was, he says, like Falstaff. a ‘mountain of weighing 412 pounds. In March, 1207, he is, comparatively’ speaking, a siim stripling of only 220 prunds. In twelve months he has lost 182 pounds, without the use of drugs, but simply by dieting and exercise In his diet he has strictly eschewed all starchy and sugary foods, sueh as potatoes, cake, pastry and candy, Fat meat he has been urged by the doctors to eat as often and as largely as his capacity would permit. Beer, which \he used to consume, he says, at the rate of a doten schooners a day, he has en- tirely given up, along with whiskey and all aleohotic§ drinks. But tobacco he has, with impunity, allowed himself, both for smoking and chewing. Epsom saits and magneé@sium sulphate he has taken freely. One of the most important factors in his reduction of weight has been cease- less exercise. All day tong he has walked the ward, some of the time busy with tasks he found to do, but often tramping along voluntarily. He is the righthand man of the nurses, for whom patients often have to be moved, beds changed from one place to another, and various chores done.

a 7 e 2. bl ‘‘And There is Nothing in the Evidence to Show He Is Sane Now,’’ He Contends—Justice F Makes Heated Reply, and, After Dramatic Overrules District Attorney. By Associated Press. sion of the Thaw ‘trial mur ies was made notable in the court of New York City by District Attorney Jerome placing hi . the position of openly and doggedly defying the presiding Judg The District Attorney declined point blank to submit certain “i thorities to Justice F specs: on the ground that the question of ' that he must assume the Court t “T have too much respect for the courts of this jurisdic tion,’ declared the ‘to submit authorities so elemental.”’ admonished the Fitzgerald it was his duty Attorney that Justice District assume that, since the declined to do so, he the existence of any he would District Attorney did not know oft such authorities. The spectators were thrilled into ab- solute silence during the tense. mo- ments of the extraordinary debate be- said Mr. Jerome's manner of addressing the court was as defiant as his words. He seemed thoroughly aroused and Justice Fitzgerald seemed to retain his judicial calm only with great effort. The point under discussion was as to whether the District Attorney on cross- examination could take a wider scope than was permitted counsel for the de-, fense on direct examination. Justice Fitzgerald finally § sustained the position taken by the defense. During the debate, which began tween the District Attorney and Delmas, the latter characterized Mr, Jerome’s remarks as ‘offensive’ and said they tended to lower the standards and dignity of the court. Justice Fitzgerald interposed at this point, and the war of words went on between him and the prosecuting offi- cer?r. During the debate District Attorney Jerome took ovcnsion to declare that the legal assumption before the coury in that Thaw is now insane. He said the defendant has been shown to have been insane on June 25 last, and it is be- Mr. to be otherwise. Justice Fitsgerald at this point called for the authorities and precipitated the scene with the District Attorney. District Attorney Jerome resumed the cross-examination of Dr. Charles G. Wagner, Superintendent of the State Hospital for the Insane at Binghamton, by reading the latter part of Dr. Wag- ner’s testimony vesterday, regarding the characteristics of the brainstorm. The witness yesterday referred Mr. Jerome to an instance of brainstorm cited in one Of the medical authorities. Today the professor asked if the alienist knew of any other reported cases of brain- storm. Dr. Wagner said he could not recall any offhand. Thaw, who had brought his customary batch of letters into court with him, after a brief whispered con- versation with some of his counsel, pro- ceeded to read a large number of epis- tles. He then took a large pad out of one of his big envelopes, obtaiged pen and ink, and began to write a letter. He seemed the least interested spectator in the room. In fact, the expert testt- mony throughout has bored the pris- oner immeasureably. -His .present atti- tude is in sharp contrast to the keen interest displayed while his wife was on the witness stand. Mr. Jerome asked Dr. Wagner if he could cite a brain storm in which the onset took place in 10 minutes. The doc- tor could not. “Does the calmness and deliberation with which Thaw waiked down the aisle of the roof garden and shot White indi- cate anything about his mental con- dition? Is it natural for a person suf- fering from brain storm to act in this manner?’ asked the District Attorney. Instances of Brain Storm. “T have already told you that I cannot lay any rule as to conduct In Insanity,’” replied Dr. Wagner. “There is no

‘Insanity in ‘i another case of a patient who took off natural way in which things are done. , itself is unnatural. I re- member one case in which a patient was out with a walking party and suddenly jumped into a canal, climbed under a culvert and was drowned.

Wife After Viewing Body Is Racked by Doubt of Identity, LONG JOURNEY IN VAIN

Man Who Shot Himself Used Husband’s Name and Similar Clothes. After going from St. Louis to Coden, Ala., and examining there the body and | belongings of a man who, two weeks ago, shot himself to death, Mrs. Tula Smith of 916 North Theresa avenue is etill in doubt as to whether. he ig her husband, William A. Smith. She has returned to St. Louis feeling certain that the body is her husband's and yet racked with doubt because she cannot prove his identity positively. She will apeal to Chief of Police Creeecy for assistance in the hope that further means of identifying the body may be found. Mrs. Smith went to Coden after read- ing newspaper accounts of the Buicide. Last Saturday she was permitted to examine the body of the dead man. Though the features were not recogniz- able, other circumstances led her to be- lieve that the man was her husband. The clothing worn:by the man and his height pointed to this conclusion. Registered as William Smith. Before going to Coden he had regis- tered at a hotel in Mobile, 30 miles away, as William @nith. The handwrit- ing, Mrs. Smith says, was similar to that of her husband. Smith was found dead under the roof of a house that had been swept away by a flood, He had evidently planned to thwart identification, no papers of any kind being found on his body. Even his hat band had been cut out. Mrs.; Smith says that she separated from her husband while they were liv- ing in Chicago. Smith was a sufferer from indigestion. They decided to part and he went South for his health. She last heard from him indirectly in Mont- gomery, Ala., about three months ago. Smith was a dentist, 38 years old. Be- fore his marriage in 1982 he was en- gased in newspaper work in Harrisburg, a. He was in St. Louis during .the World’s Fair with a string of horses Mrs. Smith believes that if the dead man is her husband he shot himself from despondency owing to ill health. WANTS PAY FOR GOWNS. Paris Oostamer Sues St. Louis- - an Who Says He Paid. ... Arthur E. Le Long of Paris, France, has filed suit in the Circuit Court against James P. O'Neil of 35 Washing- ton Terrace, St. Louis, for 65328 francs, or $1,065.60, claimed due for dresses and money advanced for the purchase of a rooch.

Mrs. Belle Neville Must Sur- render Stones to Mrs. Maloney Mrs. Fredericka Maloney of 215 Tom street,will have the pleasure of wear- ing again the diamonds from which

she has been separated since 1904. Mrs. Belle Neville ‘of 4364 Morgan street, who has becn wearing them most of the in- terim will have to part’ with them, be- cause Circuit Judge Fisher has decided favorably to Mrs. Maloney the suit for possession of the diamonds which she rosecuted against Dr. E. J. Neville, usband of Mrs. Neville. The diamonds, valued at $300, were set in’earrings when Mrs. Maloney had them. Dr. Neville attended her hus- band, the late Capt.

The acutest nerve centers are tickeled into exaggerated life. -The nerve motors whch are most susceptible to these gases are those representing the anl- mal in man. Lurking Drug Suggestion. “In time inhalation comes to sug- gest the use of other narcotics. A man might snfoke cigarettes in moderation, ‘without inhaling them, for years, with- out any suggestion that cocaine, mor- '. phine or opium would yield more pleas- ant results. Yet, because of this very . Suggestive power lurking in the cigar- ette, it is to be feared. The cigar is ‘the conservative vice. . “I would rather my boy would use opium than inhale cigarette gases. Opium at least deadens carnality. “> “TJ am aware that much brilliant neu- -- rotie effort is produced under the keen- --. ly active influence of inhalation by in- - ‘tellectual workers. It is high time for an intellectual smoker to stop when his ‘ero’ "retuses to produce smar ness without the inhalation of the gases of hity or one hundred paper cylinders a day. He has become a fiend at that stage. The danger is that he mav want to stop after the purely volitional in- stincts have been warped into slavish- ness.’ Judge Brown turned from the discus- sion of adult smoking to adolescent smokers. He cited his personal observa- tions while Judge of the Juvenile Court Salt Lake City and previous to that lod while he was getting in touch with this work as a resident of Chica- go. His clear blue eyes and entfusi- astic face sparkled with eagerness to discuss his favorite subject. ’ _, How Sneaks Are Made. “T have found that more sneaks were started among boys by the use of cig- arettes than from most other sources.

MRS. G. W. RORER. | ville Center, L. 1, suffered so from headaches and ner- vous trouble that she could not sleep. She has failed to derive any ben- fit from the many other remedies she tried. She has been completeiy cured and restored to health, and now enjoys restful sleep, thanks to DUFFY’S PURE MALT WHIS- KEY. Mrs. Rorer is 64 years of age and cannot say too much in praise of this great family medicine. “T have been a constant sufferer from headache and nervous troubles, some- times lying awake at night. I saw your advertisement in the paper and made up my mind to try your medicinal whiskey, and it did me so much good that I con- tinued it, but now only take it in the evening and at noon time. I-think that it is better than any medicine I can get. I have not had the doctor once since I commenced using it. I thank you again and again for the good it has done me. My age is 64 years."—-MRS. G. W. RORER, Rockville Center, L. I., Dee. 3, 1906. The above unsolicited testimo- nial of Mrs. Rorer is similar in its words of praise to many letters re- ceived daily from men and women throughout the world, in all walks of life, who have been permanently cured by DUFFY’S PURE MALT WHISKEY, the greatest of all medicines.

TO TOUR THE HOLY LAND. Princeton Professor Confirms Report of Resignation. Special to the Post-Dispatch. ROSTON, March 5.—The Rev. Dr. Henry Van Dyke today confirmed the report of his resignation from the Princeton faculty. With his insepara- ble companions, his Bible and his fish rod, Dr. Van Dyke is going on a camp- ing trip through Palestine. His object is, he says, to live out of doors in the Holy Land and to see the things that are unchanged, the mountains, the blue sky and the waters. He will angle in the waters of Galillee. To a reporter Dr. Van Dyke said he would leave New York on March 16 for Jaffa and will meet there two friends who are now in Europe. They will tour through Jaffa, Samaria and Galliilee. Dr. Van Dyke will return to this coun- try in June or July.

ITH Ellen Terry, playing Lady Cecily Waynflete in “Capt. Brass- bound’s Conversion” at the Olympic last night the realization came to me that George Bernard Shaw has in this play written a quaint sort of prophetic refutation of “Man and 8 uperman.” He hasn't denied that woman is) superman—not by any manner of means— and he here again depicts her as a liar of sorts—lady Cecily lies delightfully upon occasion—but he surely discred) t# his own later charge that she invariably camp? on man’s trail with malice af iss in the direction of premeditated matrimony.

Rut. O, how different is Lady de ily Waynflete, even in her fundamental likeness to the husband-catching young woman in “Man and Superman!” merely utwitting man for the sheer fun of the thing, as a mete trial of skill and finesse between them, and protective of him after she has again proved to herself that he’s a weak creature who couldn't. Marry him, however?—not to save possibly get along withoyt his sup¢rman.

And then she glances, furtively admiring yet resolutely scorning, at, the big, handsome, gullen, childish and half-savage brute of an Anglo-East Indian who thus yielded to her. She would have n@ne of him—not she! Yet the amazingly and exasperatingly clever Mr. Shaw makes it plain to us that Lady Cecfly Waynflete is a very human superman, after. all—because, deep down in her heart, Capt. Brassbound. When the she loves i same bas successfully withstood his sto ng of her soul's cita@el, and the boom of the gun from his pirate ship calls him away from her forever,'she draws a tre- mendous sigh, half of regret, half of Belf-pity. “How splendid!" she says, looking, after him. narrow escape!”’ | It's a keenly entertaining story— tterly absurd, impossible and almost gro- tesque in its unreality, yet holding y@u by sheer wit and audacity—and the part of Lady Cecily fits Miss Terry th such perfection that it’s a pity of pities “How splendid—and what a ghe has missed the nearly 20 years of|playing it that have passed since Ber- But a satire of English justice—not a bit of it! It’s merely a laughing and cking ‘‘skit’’ of playwriting, with its teaching confined, if anything, to the tantalizing Mr. Staw’s self-complacent be- Hef that the Shaw genius is equal to the task of making a successful play out of nothing. He doesn’t bother to satirize English justice beyond a casual line or 80 when the temptation becomes irresistible, and even then he doesn’t eare a farthing whether one gets his point or not. The play—the play’s the thing—the play made by the wonderful Mr. Shaw out of nothing at all! And, happily, Miss Terry and her admirable company play ‘‘Captain Brass- bound’s Conversion” with a seriots naturalness, an intent devotion to the realities, that surely must tickle its, mischievous author to his very soul— if such an Oberon as Bernard Shaw has a soul; The Lady Cicily of Miss Terry is as lifelike in the midst of her fantistic African coast adventures as if she were in a London drawing room. The Sir Howard Hallam of Rudge Hard- ing, a Justice of the British High Court of Justice, kidnapped into the Arabian Nights by his own halfbreed nephew, for revenge’s sake, exists there- in as conventionally as if he were on his own bench of the law’s administra- tion at home. So, too, is the Scots missionary at Mogador, the Rev. Leslie Rankin of Mr. George Ingleton, and the Felix Drinkwater, outcast of the Wat- erloo Road, of George Elton, and the Red brook, degenerate son of a good English family, of Mr. Frederick Lioyd—all as true to real life as if the story of’ Captain Brassbound could really have happened anywhere outside of George Bernard Shaw's motley-masqued brain. And even the excel- nard Shaw first wrote it for her. Catlike—that’s it, precisely--as_ ‘tain Brassbound in itself being a piece of appreciative

: COMMISSION APPOINTED TO FORMULATE PLANS FOR TREATING CONSUMPTION

A Commission has been appointed by the Governor of Indiana to investigate tuberculosis conditions in the state and to make recom- mendation to the next general assembly of the Legislature that a atate farm for the cure of consumption be established. The Commission has prepared plans that include the expenditure of 8100,000 for the purchase of about 200 acres of good land and provide the necessary buildings, to care for about 300 people—i50 throughout the country looking toward the eradication of the deadly white plague. The disense is so much more easily prevented than cured that it appears criminal to negicct even the timplest precau- tion. An ordimary cough or cold tends to wenken the lungs and make them especially receptive to the tubercular germ. What is probably the most efficient means to promptly check a cold or cough, is the prescription of a noted authority on lung trouble. It is claimed this will mot only break up a cold quickly, but will cure any cough that is curable. The formula calls for a half ounce Virgin Oil of Pine (Pure), two ounces of Glycerine and a half pint of good Whiskey. Mix well and take a teaspoonful every four hours. The necessary ingredients cost little and can be purchased at any good drug store. Virgim Oil of Pine (Pure) is put up for dis- pensing only, in half ounce vials, each vial securely senled in a round wooden case with an engraved wrapper, showing the name—Virgin Ol of Pine (Pure), guaranteed under Food and Drugs Act of June ‘30th, 1906. Serial number 451. Prepared only by Leach Chemical Co., Cincinnati, Ohio—plainly printed thereon. The ofla sold in bulk, and the sundry dheap imitations of Virgin O11 of Pine (Pure) put out under mame and style of package are not only ineffective for the purpose, but are often dangerous. It is always well to remember that the object of an imitator is to deceive. substitute for Virgin Oil of Pine (esi aa pap _ There is no known | > ; This movement te quite in accord with the general tendency _—— ; male and 150 female. :

But it didn’t—and, to cap the climax of premeditated mockery, the author of the play has surrounded these English figures with 4 swarm of burnoosed and turbaned Moors—a Sidi El Assif, a Cadi of Kintafi, a Hassan, an Osman, a lot of other scimetar-bearing Paynims—so gorgeously and shamelessly unreal tifit one almost reviles one’s self for submitting, enjoyingly, to such an impudent imposure of dramatic art. But it’s all 80 delightfully done that resistance to its charm is. simply impossibie. In the midst of which shine radiant ly the flawless touch in comedy of Ellen Terry at her best. It can’t be denied that Miss Terry fails to look the part of Lady Cecily by some years—Ichabod! Ichabod! the pain of it, more for us than for Miss Terry, who has already won the highest there is for her in her call- ing'—yet neither can there be any denial of the truth that she plays the role with a joyous grace, a spiritual appre ciation of its fun, a sureness of effect in every little detail, that makes her work as finely memorable as any she has ever done. She wheedles, cajoles and befools her brother, the English Judge, she captivates Brassbound’s pirate crew and binds them to her bidding with un- preakable silken threads of feminine charm; she enamors poor Captain bBrass- bound himself, taming and ruling him against his moody will; she even makes the grim Moors themselves yield to her in despite of the Law and the Phophet— and all the time she Is the very incarnation of dainty, graceful, good and man- protecting womanhood, the whole world her nursery, her soul smiling every day at the childishness of the masculine half of it. It’s almost a unique figure 1” drama, this of Lady Cecily Waynflete, and Miss Terry makes of it a cameo etched for life on the memories of all who are fortunate enough to see her in the role. I don’t believe it can ever be played acceptably by any other than this woman for whom Bernard Shaw created it. The Terry company is excellent, with Mr. Carew well in the/lead, his Cap- characterization far out of the ordinary. He has a masterful stage presence, a compelling voice of fine shading, resolute and ‘earnest eyes and great magnetism—even in the enforced monotony caused by the almost unbroken sullenness of the Brassbound role he left a profound impression on the minds of his audience. Others of the company whom I have already named did admirable work—and crew of Captain Brassbound’s commanding was a sheer delight for individual character- drawing blended into one harmonious w hole. On Thursday evening “Captain Bras sbound’s Conversion” will give way to the double bill of ‘The Good Hope” and ‘‘Nance Oldfield.”’ _RIP LEY D.

UNDER YAZOO FARM JACKSON, Miss., March £.—Professor | Clinton McMickle, a Kansas scientist | ( and archaeologist, is so confident that the Garden of Eden was located in Ya-' zoo County, this State, that he wants: to organize a stock company for the! purpose of making extensive excava- | { tions on the farm of Judge W. A. Hen-'| {¢ ry, a lawyer and planter, about seven ' miles south of Yazoo City, for the pur- pose of unearthing the ruins of the once splendid city said to have been erected Shortly afier the expulsion of Adam and Eve from the Garden. Professor McMickle is positive that on the Henry farm will be found the ruins of a magnificent temple, the doors of which are of pure gold. He declares that this was the site of the ancient city of Poseidon, destroyed by a conjunction of Mercury, Venus, Mars and Jupiter on the eighth of No- vember, 1660, of the world’s history, or just 4236 years ago on the eighth of last November. Professor McMickle states that he has jj conclusive evidence, based on the Book !)» of Genesis and Greek -and Egyptian records, that Yazoo County was the birthplace of man and that it will only be necessary té dig the required depth in order to find proof of his belief.

One First Discovered Now Greatly Decreased in Size. Special to the Post-Dispatch. PITTSBURG, Pa., March 5.—The huge sun spot discov ered by John A. Brash- ear, the Allegheny astronomer, two weeks ago, is said to have passed its prime, and is greatly decreased in size. Two new ones have appeared. The spot of two weeks ago had a diameter of 35,000 miles. Today it is about 20,000 i in diameter. Three other sun spots, ranging from 8000 to 10,000 miles in diameter have also been seen. The new cpots are on the western side of the sun. They will be visible for ten days more, when they will g1 radual- ly pass to the eastern side and then dis- appear, as the face of the sun, now turned toward the earth, rotates to the other side. Prof, Schlesinger, another !Allegheny astronomer, believes the bis spot may survive one more rotation. Sun spots, he explained, generally pass away after one rotation of the Sun, which requires four weeks. SUGAR FAILURE PREDICTED.

Nearly five hundred doll.rs in cash, oop of gold watches, several dia- ad studs and numerous little gold pe silver trinkets carried in handbags | by women were taken by three robbers . passengers, «ou Jett,

While the men were searching the a colored miner drew a revolver and fired at the robber nearest him, missed his man, and in return was shot between the eyes and ig. instantly. 4 he ro rs boarded the train at Pa dt and little or ne attention was paid ‘to them. They each wore what are now believed to have been false mustathes and goatees, slouch hats and, as the passengers recall, the dark ap- pearance of their faces, they believe some kind of a stain was used to hide the features. - Two of the passengers on.the train at the time of the hola-up arrived at Union Station. Monday at 11.30 a. m., four hours behind the schedule. One was a man and the other a woman with two little children. Both had vivid stories to tell of the excitement ef the ten or fif- teen minutes while the robbers were on the train. Seattle Man's Story. F. N. Martin of Seattle, who was re- lieved of $140 in cash and a gold watch, said: “Only a short time before the hold-up I had been talking about train robbers with a traveling man from San Franciseo. He lost a watch and some money, I don't know the exact amount, “Two of the ro vers walked toward me. The third was at the other end of the car, but 1 didn't see him. One of the men in front had a revolver itn each hand and shouted, ‘Hold up your hands. “Everyone in front of me obeved at once. tl was too much excited to even think of looking behind to see what was ving on. One of the men collected rem the passengers while the other kept his revolvers trained down the car, at once [| heard a shot and thought that one of the robbers had fired; but-4efound afterward that the shot came frem the revolver of a col- ored miner. The man with the two oun dropped his left hand by his side value! the right. the flred and I eo someone say, ‘I arh shot.’ White Wounded; Negro Killed. ‘This was a Mr. Westfield of Toledo, O., who was traveling with his wife and child. The bullet struck him in the . hand and made a painful wound, “The robber fired again. The sec- ond bullet struck the edlored man in the forehead, and when he was picked up after the robbers juniped from the train he was dead. I think he must have died instantly. | “The auditor was on the train and i think he was worse frightened than 1 Was and I was scared worse than I ever was before in my life. When the man who was taking the money and Valuables reached the auditor he had his hands in the air and when the hold-up man asked him for his watch he Was so seared that he could not take it out of his potket, The robber laughed at him and said he guessed the would have to help him.

When they got through they pulled the bell rope and the engineer, who did not Know that there was anything wrong, slowed down. He didn’t think it strange, for the train was then near a water tank where | Was told it stops on signAl. So it is probable that the robbers knew this and planned to get off there. That is where they left. “The conductgr was in a car ahead, and 1 was told afterward that he hac the door leading into the coach loc net and that he tried to signal the engineer to keep the train moving fast so that the men would not be able to get off. The engineer did not understand and slowed down until the robbers were able to leave.’’ Mrs. Charles Wells of Philadelphia, with two small children, was a pas- Senger on the train, and lost $10 which was in a small purse. Another pock- etbook containing $150 which she curried in her corsage she saved. “I was so frightened that I scarcely knew what was taking place,” she said, “| saw the man with the two revolvers in front of me and heard a shot fired from the rear of the car. Then I saw one of the robbers shoot twice. Hie was the one who killed the colored man. When.the man in the lead came to me I handed him my purse and he took the $10-—-two $5 billseout of it, and gave me back the purse. Posse Goes in Pursuit. Westlake, the wounded passenger, was taken to Liberal, and his hand was dressed by the surgeon of the company there. As soon as communication could be had with the agent at Pittsburgh, Kan., a switch engine with a posse of officers was sent to Corneil, four miles away. The robbers got $10 in cash and many watches and revolvers. The country surrounding Pittsburg is thickly settled.” The news that a miner had been killed by bandits spread rap- idly and hundreds of miners went In search of the robbers.

SAN FRANCISCO, March 5.—Capt. Nelson of the Pacific mail steamer City of Panama was presented yesterday an autograph photograph of President Roosevelt and Second Officer Moder and Quartermaster Thomas Brown with medals for bravery at sea. During a heavy gale Dec. 31 Moder and Brown manned a boat and rescued the third officer, boatswain and three seamen who were swept overboard. The Pres- ident, whose attention had been called to the affair, sent his photograph to Capt. Nelson, and the passengers on board at the time subscribed to pur- chase the medals. Gas Regulators ‘Enjoined. Holding that the Laclede Gas Light Co. controls the gaspipes from the mains in the street to the meters in the house, Jude Fisher granted a permanent in- junction against the Gas Consumers’ As- sociaiton to prevent the installation of regulating devices on the plaintiffs pipes. About 2000 regulators are in upe in the city. The injunction does not p&- vent the association from installing reg- ulators on the house pipes.

It was stated by a member of the Republican organization Tuesday that Mr. Drew was of the type of men that it is trying to bring out as council candidates. There has been consider- able reluctance on the part of the busi- ness men to consent to accept places on the ticket.

Howe said Tuesday confident that the regular will win by a big majority. the other side are claiming victory an overwhelming majority. The Twenty-eighth Ward will be the most desperately contested battleground. This ward has 17 delegates in the con- vention. Louis P. Aloe, leader of the anti-Howe fight in the ward, said Thurs- day that the right of Dwight F. Davis, the regular Republican candidate for the House of Delegates, to vote in the ward would be challenged notwithstanding the decision of the Board of Election Commissioners that he had such right. Will Make Davis Take Oath. “We propose to challenge Davis’ right vote,” said Aloe. ‘tHe will be put under oath and required to swear that he is living in the Twenty-eighth Ward on the day of the election, as provided by section 6 of the primary election laws. Further, I desire to say that the Board of Election Commissioners has no right under the law to make a de-= cision that can be properly made only by the judges of election. “Davis does not own fhe house at 38 Westmoreland pla ice.

The corporation Senator who does not “finance” his seat while holding it, saves scandal, but he does not “save the country.” According to the definition of the late Jay Gould, it is cheaper fo put “friendly men” in office than to buy those who are not friendly. According to the late Thomas B. Reed, “an honest man in politicis is one who will stay bought.” Both these definitions bear more or less on the point when men who hold public office resign it “because of the smallness of the salary” torre-enter the service of powerful and wealthy combinations against the public which, and not the public, they have represented in publie life. welfare, Se eee Mr. Wenneker sees a good reason why the city should give him a saccharine monopoly in’ Forest Park for 10 years for $30,000, in preference to giv- ing the same monopoly to another bidder for $40,000.

THOUGHTS ON BUSINESS Written for the Post Dispatch By WALDO PONDRAY WARREN. & COMMON SENSE IN SELLING. I. DOESN’T pay to be too anxious to sell—it only drives the trade away. One morning recently 1 stopped at a fruit stand. I was just in the frame of mind in which I didn’t want anything in particular, but wished to buy something if I saw anything that appealed to me. But the instant I began looking at the fruit the old man came up and began pointing to this, that and the other, not giving me a moment to think for myself. I simply turned and walked off—probably as thousands had done before me. I was willing to buy goods, but not willing to have goods sold to me. And I went cway disap- pointed at not having the privilege of looking over the stock. This same spirit in some degree pervades almost every line of business. The men who own the business may know better, but they fail to impress the point upon their salespeople, and the result is the same as at the fruit stand. Those who are willing to be customers turn away when they are denied the privilege of looking over the goods and forming their own impressions. But, on the other hand, there are people who desire immediate attention, and go away if they don’t get it. There is a happy medium between these two extremes that is an important point in successful salesmanship. (Copyright, 1907, by Joseph B. Bowles.) —

THE FIFTY-NINTH CONGRESS Written for the Post-Dispatch By Clark McAdams. In Washington the bells have tolled, and Congress is no more-- The parting Cannon-shot has rolled, and closed is the door. The wistful, melancholy wind sighs sadly overhead, The member who came out behind his hard farewell has said, ,\nd Washington is in a kind of mourning for the dead. In Vackingtown the sun is bright, and many there rejoice— The 4.98s’s step is glad and light, and merry is his voice. The malancholy days are gone, and gone the sense of dread That key’ the packer worn and wan, and on his vitals fed While tha} continued going on which finally is dead. In Battle Crea, the heavens smile, and pleasant is the mood Of they that ane engaged the while inventing patent food. The days of worming are past, and banished is the gloom That all the heavea’s overcast and sort o’ threatened doom So long as that contxived to last which now is in its tomb. At Harriman’s a breatlp Of hope is blowing through the room— As if a sprig of heliotroya’ Were bursting into bloom. The sky continues dark aa'd low, and troubles to dismay A sailor never cease to grow alarming day by day, 3ut the cloud which deals tha hardest blow has haply passed away. =

Laymen on Bench. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch.

Party Policies. : To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. Much is said about ‘“‘good men” for the House of Delegates, by both Demo- crats and Republicans at the coming city election, but not a word about good policies. If the policy of both parties is to be the same as in the past, viz.; to give over the city to corporation managers, it matters not whether the delegates be good or bad men, except it be that “good men” will demand more for votes, from franchise grab- bers! As this will not benefit the citi- zens, it is important to know where .the parties stand on public questions! “The Socialists have declared their po- sition. Why ig it the old party leaders are silent on issues? Have they any outside of officeholding? JOHN WILLIAMS. Quality of Bread. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. The criticism of the bakery combine last week appears not to have been wholly justified by the fact. I am_in- formed by their representatives that the inferior quality complained of was probably due to one of those unavoid- able accidents which sometimes occur, and affected only a small portion of the output of the brand referred to. It is easier to believe this to have been the case than that it was a result of the deliberate use of inferior materials, or that bisiness men of ordinary acumen would adopt a business policy so short sighted and suicidal. The quality of the brand has since been fully up to its former standard. It would be well. however, to guard against a recurrence of such accidents. Draft and Consumption.

BALLPLAYERS OF THE BROWNS AND — CARDINALS WHO START SOUTH TONIGHT CARDINALS

Howell cannot, strictly speak- a St. Louisan, but this city all winter, his home in this Blues. ing, be considered was employed in and intends to make city in the future. Byrne has played on a number of minor league teams, Hostetter is well known as one of the prides of Goose Hollow: Hostetter, Hoelskoetter, or: Holly, whichever name his friends wish to call him, will be tried out for the catching department of the Cardinals this season. Hostetter has pitched and played-the infield and outfield for the Cardinals, so he will be given another chance to ascertain if there is one posi- tion on the team that he cannot at least make a good stab at. ANAGER McCLOSKEY of the St. Louis Cardinals is the in- ventor and patentee of the first practical electrical scoreboard. There has been a good deal of talk lately, al- most entirely in American League cir- cles, of adopting such a machine for use in every park on the circuit. Mr. McCloskey rises to remark § that must first be consulted, as he is sole owner of the device. ‘Not only is the full score by innings kept in full view, but also the name of the batsman, the number of balls and strikes on him, the number of outs in

the inning and the total number of hits and runs seored by the side at bat. There is also a space for announcing the decision of the umpire on ball plays. Thus the exact status of the game at anv moment is plainly visible to the fans, who are also not left in doubt as to the decisions on balls, strikes and other plays: McCloskey’s board is operated from the press box by the aid {ofa small eleetrieal machine, which re- sembles a typewriter in general appetr- ance. This machine is connected with the scoreboard by wires running through a pipe laid under the field. The power is furnished by a storage battery. The instant a decision is given by the umpire the operator presses the re- quired Key and the proper word or num- ber is flashed on the board, in plain view of all. The cost of the apparatus is not large, and can be met by the vevice of a revolving sheet for adver- tisements at the top of the board. This machine was invented by John McCloskey about two years ago. In March,. !906, he took out letters of copy- right on the design. About two months ago he wrote to Ban Johnson explaining his invention and advocatines its adop- tion by the American League. His let- ter was never answered, and when he approached the great Ban during the recent meetine in New York to talk the matter over he was not listened to. Mr. McCloskey was very angry at sonneon s discourtesv, and he makes the a nouncement that any club installing an electric scoreboard must come to terms with him, as he has the original richts in the matter. | true, Bat Nelson must have enjoyed his stay on the other side. Not hav- ine interviewed Bat on the subject I don’t know whether the. stories are founded on fact or just plain fietion. Here they are, anyway: “London, Feb. 20.--Battling Nelson hes just become engaged to an English actress. The lady is Miss Della Rose, who is at present at the Manchester Palace Theater. The engagement has come as a great shock to pugilistic fol- lowers in this country, coming as it does so soon after Nelson's arrival in this country. Miss Rose is a prepos- sesing looking young lady, with a r- petual smile playing around her lips, and is 4 years of age.

Joe Thomas of Philadelphia and Hon- ey Mellody, welterweight champion of the world, are the contestants. Both of these fellows like to start in F the report published in England is ‘ CHANGES ARE CERTAIN NOW IN GLIDDEN TOUR PLANS

a vw As a result of the first meeting of the Touring Board of the American Auto- President W. H. Hotchkiss is expected to cal] an early meeting of the Execu- tive ‘Committee to receive the sugges- tions made by the Touring Board re- garding the best route for the Glidden Cup tour. Automobilists who are pre- paring to go on the tour were anxiously awaiting yesterday some announcement o: the probable route, but the only state- ment that’ Chairman F. B. Hower sent to the American Automobile Association headquarters was that the subject of routhes and rules was thoroughly dis- cussed, and that the Executive Com- mittee will now take’ final action in de- termining the route. In view of the great demand made by automobilists al] over the country for a tour from Chicago or St. Louis to New York or in the opposite. direction, it is confidently believed that the original proposal for a Chicago-Washington route will be abandoned. Motorist from both this city and Chicago have urged

of cho@ging a route that will take the autoists through a number of large peices and over good roads as well as in localities where accommodations for a large party will be satisfactory. The Chicago-Washington route failed to find any favor, but, but there is a grow- ing sentiment that a round trip tour from New York would be an ideal thing for the coming contest, spending two or three days in Chicago and then returning to New York by way of Cleve- land, Pittsburg. and Philadelphia. This test would make a run of fully 2500 miles and would provide a splendid endurance contest for the cars. A radical change of rules for the con- test was practically decided upon, and within the next six weeks the commit- tee hopes to announce the conditions for the 1907 tour. Seymour P. White, presi- dent of the Automobile Club of Buffalo, sent a request on behalf jof the club to Chairman Tower, aSking for changes in the deed of gift. the tact that the Buffalo) club the holder of the cup by'\means of a consistent construction of the deed of gift which, in the event of a tie, gives to the holding club a continuance of that holding. “Gratifying as that result may be to the club,”” he adds, “we are satisfled that other clubs and individuals can raise reasonable objections, which may go far to jeopardize the trophy as an teem | ofc the Touring Board the necessity is now

TUESDAY— ST. LOUIS >OST-DISPATCH— MARCH 5, 1907

JOKE ON COMPAN| Conductor Who Seeks Stray Animal’s Owner Gets Short Answers. An eastbound Laclede car stopped at Grand avenue about 8 a. m. Tuesday

while several] passengers got off and a dozen climbed aboard. Among the new arrivals was a yellow dog about six- teen inches high, fourteen inches long, not counting the stubby tail, and four inches thick. Such of the human pas- — as did not prefer to stand on tlfe rear platform went inside the car and found seats. The dog went inside, but there was no seat for him. The car had proceeded about a block when the conductor saw the yellow cur which was violating United Railways rules by riding without paying fare. “See here,’’ said the conductor to a fat man on the platform who was simok- ing a cigar of the same breed as the dog, “you will have to put that dog off the car.’ “It ain't my dog,” said the fat man. “Oh,” said the conductor. The dog was a friendly beast and he ran to and fro in the car sniffing at the passengers, wagging his stump of a tail and saying, ‘““Good morning. . How are you? I am very well, thank you,’’ as plainly as a dog can talk. Boy Deals in Repartee. The conductor started through the car after fares. The dog dodged between his - legs, leaped up and put its paws ona man reading a newspaper... This gave the fare-collector an idea and he im- mediately asked the man: ‘‘Is that your “Get away from here!” said the man. He was addressing the dog, not the conductor. Dog and conductor both “got away,’ the conductor looking sheepish and the dog cheerful and with an air that said, “Very well, if that is the way you feel about it.’’ The dog continued his efforts to make friends and finally succeeded when he approached a small boy convoying a large basket. The boy patted the dog’s head and spoke kindly, while the dog waggeed his stump of a tail more vig- orously and whined his delight. said the conductor td the small “dogs is not allowed on this car.’’ “Is dat so?” said the boy. “Den why don’t you git off?" “You think you're smart,’’ said the conductor as he’tried to get in position to kick the dog into the street. But just ther the dog saw something on the sidewalk thaf interested him, and as the car was slowing up for Jefferson ave- nue, he gave the boy a farewell glance and jumped to the ground. ee ere ee ee For Wives and Mothers Save the Loved Ones from Drink Evil —Orrine Guaranteed to Cure— Can be Given Secretly.

Pasquier’s will was only found re- cently, according to Mr. Schroers’ in- formants, it having been hidden since his death. The romantic Story of the .slayer’s efforts to make ‘amends to the widow and children of his victim is going the rounds of the newspapers in Germany and has attracted attention in this country. Before receiving word from his sister Mr. Schroers read of the inheritance in clippings from various papers in Hamburg, Berlin and Paris. What ap- pears to be confirmation of the story Came to Mr. Schroers Monday after- noon in a letter from his sister. He was requested to send her power of attor- ney to represent him in the legal pro- ceedings required to apportion Pas- quier’s estate. Mr..Schroers says he believes that the Strange tale of the Pasquier bequest has foundation and expects that his share of the eerey will be approxi- mately $100,000 sees of the Duel. That part of the story telling of the duel and the slayver’s flight to France is substantiated by a tradition in the Schroers’ family. In 1835 Anitton Donkels and Pasquier quarfeled and fought. Secretly they met and left to the ar- bitrament of weapons the dispute they could not settle otherwise. Pasquier was victorious and Donkels was left dead on the ground. The German laws were strict against duelling and Pasquier feared to face the consequencees, Departing hastilv, he went to Holland and th®nce to France.

Damage Case With Midnight Rumblings as Evidence. The question whether a man is en- titled to damages for an affliction caus- ing him to snore all night was involved in the damage suit of enry Touhey of 3002 Chouteau avenue against the Trin- idad Asphalt Co., which went to trial Monday in Judge McDonald's court. The case did not proceed far enough for this question to be adjudicated. Touhey was working on a building at 20 Texas avenue when a bucket fell on him and his nose was broken. He testified that he hadeto breathe through his mouth and for that reason snored all night. Attorney Lon Hocker, for the de- fendant, suggested that ‘if anybody had cause of action it was Touhey’s wife. A demurrer that it had not been shown that the company was respon- sible for the aecident was sustained and the plaintiff took a. non-suit. SHE SWALLOWED NEEDLES. Over 50 Already Removed from Woman's Body. NEW YORK, March 5.—Miss Dollie Duessler, 22 years old, who swallowed a packet of needles geveral months ago, is at present under treatment in Belle- vue Hospital, where the surgeon states she has still scores of needles in her body. At the Fordham Hospital, where the woman was treated, five operations were performed and 50 needles extract- ed. Some of the needles are located as far apart as back, chest and arms and it 1S feared that some of them have trav eled to the vicinity of the heart and may puncture that organ. A charge of at- tempted suicide may be made against the woman. It is not known how she came to swallow the needles.

Quick Act ion on Coughs and Colds--' 18 A Valuable Home-Made Remedy The stately pine trees growing in the solitude of the Eastern mountains hold the proud distinction of yielding to the human race a greater variety and more meritorious medicines than any other plant in the vegetable world. | Its tinctures, oils and extracts are in constant use by the doctors all over the world and highly prized on account of their certain action on the mucous ufeémbranes and their great healing qualities. A renowned Philadelphia doctor has recently given to his fellow physicians a new and probably the most valuable of pine products. It is known to the profession as Concentrated oil of pine. In speaking of this oil a well known local physician declared it is without an equal for the speedy relief of acute eolds and coughs and all manner of throat and Jung trouble. The original formula used and now generally pre- scribed is as follows: “One-half ounce of Concentrated oil of pine; two ounces of glycerine; half pint of ggod pure whiskey; mix thor- oughly any use in tablespoon doses

every four hours.” On inquiring at one of the leading drug stores it was found that the Con- ecentrated oil of pine comes put up for medical yse only in one way, and that is, in ‘half-ounce bottles. Each bottle is enclosed in a round screw top case and securely sealed. This protects it from heat and light. The oils sold in bulk as Oil of Pine are useless, on account of their im- purities they produce nausea and kid- ney trouble. There are also several patent medi- cines put out by chemical firms under similar names, but these can be avoid- ed by niaking sure to get the “Concen- trated” oil of pine in its original pack- age; the mixture can then be made at home by purchasing the other ingredi- ents and mixing them in a ten ounce bottle. A cold should never be per- mitted ad linger , as nine-tenths of the +s originate in a cold ‘frst seemed trivial. The becomes weakened by coughs and colds, and any disease is then liable to set in.

Mr. Yoakum declined to talk railroad politics concerning the system of which he is the executive head or of any other system. Ile declared he had adopted the oyster policy With. respect to comment on all Fgdera) and State legislation or investigation of railrouds. He even declined to discuss the New York stock market, dismissing that. subject with the remark that he believes ‘‘the country 1s not a upon thut source four its pros Yoakum sald he takes the same view the general suituation he has held fer several years, which is that the prosperity and financial strength of the country is un- impaired from the high status it has gained in the past ten years and is not even threat- ened at this time by the agitation in rail. road affairs. He expressed the unbounded faith in the eontinued growth of business in St. Louls, other Mississippi River cities, and cities and towns in the new States of the Sonthwest and in Texas, where he is inter- ested in railway construction. The Trinity & Brazos Valley line, he said, is now wperat- ing between Ft. Worth and Houston, and by next August will be operating in connection with the Brownsville road, from Houston into Galveston. This operation will give the Yéakum lines in Texas a mpemeet position fn that State than either the Harriman or Gould lipes now hold, as before anotber year goes by the Yoakum lines in Texas will also be operating into New Orleans over the Colorado Southern, New Orleans & Pacific. There is more trading on the St. Louls Stock Exchange in the securities of the Kansas City Home Telephone Co, than there is in the securities of the Bell company of Mis- souri or the Kinloch company. For that reason the circular issued esterday by President Joseph Heim of the Kansas City company, es- pecially the resume of the financial status of the concern, is of interest fo the St. Louis investors in the securities and is given herewith: It is gratifying to the management to sub- mit herewith the following statement of tae earnings of your company, for Aer = end- ing March 31, 1907 (March estimates Gress earnings $660,806 00 Maintenance, general and operating | . $297.717 00 N rnin et 68 - 134,840 09 Interest churges Surplus $162,977 00 Surplus earnings City Long Distance for year ending March 31, of The Telephone Co A Total surplus earnings of the two companies The above surplus earnings are of 8 4-10 per cent per annum of the ing capital stock of The Kansas ( Telephone Co. outstand.- ‘ity Hoe Meaers.

result of a meeting of repre- Sentatives of the Belleville Deep Well Water Co. and some of the members of the Belleville City Council and the Belle- ville Commercial Club, Belleville’s pres- ent water system may be entirely changed, At present the water supply is re- ceived from a number of wells in the south part of the city. These wells get low in the summer time, and some- times in the winter, and the water com- pany is then forced to use water from Christine, the old source of sup- used before the wells were sunk. The recent additions to Belleville and the consequent extension of the water pipes brought the city face to face with an insufficient water supply. The water company has agreed to sink wells, which, they say, will be inex- haustible, in the American. Bottoms, near the foot of the bluffs, near Edgemont. If this is done the city will have agree to certain conditions that are yet to be decided upon. A proposition will be submitted to the Council, and aS soon as terms can be agreed upon the water company’s representatives say they will begin work. Cape Girardeau Condemnation. The commission recently appointed to appraise the property at Cape Girar- deau, Mo., upon which the Government intends to erect a Federal Building, have report to the United States Court in St. Louls fixing the price at ply
