Buse, in direct examination, told of the first appearance at the Ohio sa- loon, two months before the murder, eof Biles and Brown, of the coming of Harvey, of the friendship between the men and how Harvey always bought the drinks for his Geabbanicos . He said the trio were in the saloon early in the morning of Novy. 9. (the day Harvey was killed).

In the game are some well-known Chicagoans, including Mont Tennes, the well-known bookmaker an@ “sport.’”” At one stage Tennes was $55, 000 loser, but at at early hour this morning he had reduced the loss to $10,000, with no intention of quitting. The game started with four persons, and last night two more were sent for, so that it is now six-handed. The four original players have not slept. since they sat down to the table and have eaten very little. Mont Tennes told a friend that he had not been to bed for 24 hours and that he did not intend to seek any sleep until he had in some measure recouped his losses. At 8:3v o'clock two of the players telephoned their homes that thev would not obe home during the evening an@*hat they were detained downtown on imbortaft business and did not know when they would be able to see their families again. Began Mildly. The game began rather mildly witha $10 limit and pretty soon rounded into table stakes, with the proviso that no player could buy less than $1¢ worth of chips at a time. From this it was worked up before midnight into a $200 limit, the play being still for all that each man had in front of him, up to $200, with the amount purchasable placed at a minimum of $200. It was provided, however, that jackpots could be opened for the fuii amount contained in them. The men see-sawed along about even, until a little after midnight, when Mont Tennes began to lose and made it more and more to come in when he had the say. table worth $800, contended for. Tennes opened it for.the amount in It, making it worth $1600, and two of the other three players stayed for the same amount each, bringing its value up to $3200. the largest one yet 89000 Jackpot. cards and bet $200. Tennes drew three raised him $200 The man next to him and the third man saw that raise and made it $200 more to come in. There Was now 34200 in the pot and it was Tennes’ say. It cost him $400 to come never batted an. eyelid. So it went on until there was nearly $9000 in the pot.. Then a ‘‘little fellow’’ called. “I've got two pairs, fidently. “Not worth anything,”’ man. “I’ve got a flush,’ down his hand and started to the pot. “My two pairs are just alike, Tennes. ‘Two pairs of deuces.’ “My flush is a straight flush,—nine ten, jack, queen and king of spades,” said the little man. The laugh was’ on the big gambler, as the little fellow gathered in the chips. Shor.ly before midnight one of the players became exhausted and threw his hand on the table. ‘I’m all in, boys,” he said. “TI i have to lie down for | an hour | or Swe in, but he ’ said Tennes, con- said the little and he threw rake in ’ gaid _—— nt mee ee cautioned the witness and the attor- ney, Brown, in direct examination, told in detail the plans made to drug and rob liarvey. His recital Was to the small- est detail the same as that given by him when he pleaded guilty. When he came to the dropping of the morphine into Harvey's gligass, he left the witness stand and, kneeling down by the stenographer's desk, asked for a glass, which was brought. He pointed out the respective positions of the trio and showed by gestures how the powder was shaken into the glass. Then he explained by motions how the glass was switched, Says Biles’ Got the Money. He told of the route taken by the men in going to the lot and described how Biles “‘strong-armed’’ Harvey and how they laid him on the ground and searched hig clothes. Harvey, he said, had $4.30 and two knives and some to- bacco, Biles, he said, got the money. As they left the lot, he said, Biles struck arvey a terrific blow In the region of the abdomen. As they went up the street, he testified, Biles = re- marked to him: “That was to keep him * + from be gg They took Harvey's hat, a new one, and pawned it for $1.50.

The gambling indictments charges of conducting craps games, and-out games, and handbooks for bet- ting on horse races. Several of the per- sons indicted have more than one charge against them. In one case a woman who owns the property on which an alleged craps game is conducted, was ‘ndicted for allowing the game to be operated on her property. In five places where hand- books are alleged to be conducted, in- dictments were returned against one-er more managers of the place. Si. Loulsans Are Indicted, In each case the grand jury indicted the person accused of actually conduct- ing the handbook, if his name could be ascertained, the person who conducted the saloon, and also the owner o of the property. In several St. Louis men alleged to be bookmakers who visit East St. Louis during the ernoon and are alleged to conduct handbooks, were indicted.

WEDNESDAY—S8T. LOUIS POST-DISPATCH—MARCH 20. 1907 | KIDNAPED BOY NOT FOUND. Child Thought to Have Been Horace Marvin Identified. Special to the Post-Dispatch, ERIE, Pa., March 20.—The bottom fell out of the whole sensational storv of the finding of Horace Marvin Jr.. kid- naped son of Dr. Horace cevin of Kitts Hammock, Del., in this city, last night. In the presence of District At- torney Gifford, Assistant Carroll, Chief of Police Wagner, Mayor TLAebel and Pinkerton Detective Williams, the boy was identified as a NorveHe boy. The corrobbrative identification was made by Dr. Bell, who said this Norvelle boy. supposed to be Horace Marvin Jr., was treated by him on the Ist, 2d and 3d of March three days before the kidnaping in Delaware. The appearance of the child held in eustody by A. H. Howard was identical with photographs and description even to sears and other marks. All the au- — ———— CHICAGOAN IS ASPHYXIATED.

To solve the freight-rate problem, make the rivers of the Mississippi Va!- ley navigable in fact as well as in the- ory, was the advice of Congressman Champ Clark at the banquet of the St. Louis Manufacturers’ Association at Hotel Jefferson Tuesday night. Mr. Clark responded to the toast, ‘“The i’nited States in the Twentieth Cen- tury.”’ Incidentally he discussed the deep waterway trom iakes to the Gull. He declared that water transportation was equivalent to freight regulation; that it would pay the people of the | Mississippi Valley to make their rivers navigable, even if a passenger or a pound of freight was never carried over them. The mere fact that the rivers could be navigated would bring down rates, he said. He added that one boat line between St. Louis and New Orleans would do more toward getting the deep | waterway than all the speeches that. could be made. He advocated a com- . prehensive system of river improve- : ment, embracing a _ 14-foot waterway | from St. Louis to the Gulf and adequate depth from St. Louis to the Falls of St. Anthony and from Alton to Fort} Benton. To attain this end, he said, the Rep- resentatives and Senators in the Valley States should organize into a compact body ‘to demand what is right and just.’’ Counting Oklahoma, he declared that the Mississippi Valley now lacked only 12 of a majority in Congress, and that this majority would exist after the next census. President L. D. Kingsland acted as toastmaster and introduced three other | speakers preceding Mr. Clark. They | were Henry F. Hafner, John A. Laird | and P. M.

National officials and local represen- tatives of the National Building Trades Council, which has its headquarters in St. Louis, are watching with the keenest interest what they believe to be the death struggle of the National Struc- tural Alliance of the Building Trades, which was formed a little’ over a year ago in opposition to the old organiza- tion. It is the general belief among the building trades men that the end is near and that when the obsequies have been held there will be a return to the original national body of a number ot the international and local unions that severed their connection when the new body came into existence. As originally constituted the Structur- al Alliance was known as ‘The Big Nine,”’ for the reason that it had its inception with the officials of the nine leading national and international un- lons in the building line. These includ- ed the Brotherhood of Carpenters and Joiners, Brotherhood of Painters, Dec- orators and Paperhangers, National Bridge and Structural Iron Workers, International Hod Carriers and Build- ing Laborers, Plumbers, Steam and Hot Water Fitters, Hoisting Engineers, and three others of more or less im- portance. Looked Bright for Awhile. The effort was made to build a stone wall about these organizations and force all others to become _ subservient to them. Thus it was hoped to force all metal trades to affillate with the Bridgemen’s ‘Union, all woodworking trades with the Carpenters’ Union and sO On down the line. The Alliance seemed to be in a fair way to succeed until it ran against sev- eral national and international conven- tions of building trades unions and had been denied legislation which would force local unions of their craft to be- come affiliated with local branches of the Alliance. The operation of such laws would have meant the annihilation of local building trades councils, such as exist at present in St. Louis, Kansas City, Chicago, New York and other large centers. At the time these councils went out of existence the @irection of the affairs of all of the trades in a town or city would have passed into the hands of a Board of Governors, consisting of nine men— BUSY WORKING IT OUT Commerce Commissioners and Gov.

WASHINGTON, March 20.—President Roosevelt is more firmly convinced thon ever that the best way to restore public confidence in railroad securities and to stop the attacks of the State legisla- tures upon transportation lines in to enact a Federal license law. His idea in this direction has been strengthened greatly as the result of his cenferences with J. Pierpont Mor- gan; James Speyer, the New York bank- er; President Stickney of the Chicago- Great Western Railway; President Mel- len of the New York, New Haven & Hartford; Chairman Yoakum of the Chicage, Reck Island & Pacific, and Gov.

Master Builders’ Association Refuses Men Raise, announce it in a public address, or in his annual message to Congress. The President is studying this question, and it may be a week or two before he > law, w reaches any definite conclusion, or it may not be until Congress meets. There is not likely to be an extra session of Congress to embody his ideas in legisla- tion. If he has digested any of the par- ticular problems which he is working out he may set them forth in the ad- dress he will deliver to the Southern Editorial Association at the Jamestown Exposition some time in May, or they may be announced in his Decoration Day address at Indianapolis. When the President does deliver his address on the subjects he will have an important announcement to make and the country may expect some new ideas. President Roosevelt has been studving this problem for some menths, and his national li- nee law; an appraisement of the prop- of railroads fer the purpose of queezing the water out of railroad ocks and bonds so as to protect the blic which invests its money in these ties, and the best means to bring t a condition of public sentiment hich will put a stop to the hostile legislation by the states. Is Not for Ownership. There is grave fear on the part of of the leading railroad officials of e sentiment developing in favor of vernment ownership of railroads. me of the vernors of states have pressed their belief in writing that e President stands for such an idea. , Johnson of Minnesota is one who ‘takes this view, and a short time ago the President received a letter in which Gov. Johnson indorsed the alleged Gov- ernment ownership attitude of the President. Mr. Roosevelt does not en- such ideas; what he desires is control by the federal Government which will put a stop to the _ high finance methods tn which many of the railroads have engaged. President Roosevelt desires a plan which will enable the Government to supervise @ bond saie. If, for instance, a railroad should desire to construct a branch line, purchase new locomotives, extend its switching facilities, buy new cars, construct tunnels or reduce its these facts should be set forth na statement to the Interstate Com- merce Commission, which would make an investigation and approve the plan, if convinced that the scheme was for the good of the road. When such a scheme received the approval of the commission, the investors would know that their money would be used for the betterment of the roads ‘and that it would not find its way into the pockets of the promoters, except a smal! speci- - fied percentage, which would pay them - for their labors in engineering the - geheme.

The national and international bodies could not be induced to delegate au- tnevity to these men to say what they should and what they should not do. This was a body-blow for the Alliance from which it has failed to recover. Tired of Paying Taxes. Now comes the information that sev- eral of the big organizations have grown tired of paying a per capita tax to a body that fails to render service of any kind and they are preparing to sever their connection with it. Principal among these is the Brotherhood ot Painters and Decorators. General Pres- ident J. C. Balhorn, in his annual re- port, which has just been made public, While defending the principles of the Alliance, says candidly that he does not believe the time is ripe for the perpetu- ation of such an organization and says it 's time that the painters were serious- ly considering the advisability of declin- ing to pay any more money into the treasury of the alliance. This expres- sion, coming from President Balhorn, is considered significant because he was one of the leading spirits in the forma- tion of the alliance. The only organization that seems to have reaped any benefit from the alli- ance is the carpenters and _ joiners, which, through William Kirby, who is as carpenter and president of the alli- ance, secured the services of an organ- izer at the expense of the other build- ing trades unions. “The Structural Alliance has never been anything more than a dual or- ganization,’’ said H. W. Steinbiss, gen- eral secretary-treasurer of the National Building Trades Council, to a Post-Dis- patch reporter Tuesday. ‘Therefore it is not surprising that it is destined to meet an early death. It was wholly un- able to gain a foothold in St. Louis, and it made a signal failure of its attempt to supersede the Associated Building Trades in Chicago. Conditions look bright for the return of the National Building Trades Council to its old pow- er.’’ Quality and Price. The sale of army goods at 200 North Broadway continues to attract hundreds of buyers, who marvel at the cheap- ness of and who disseminate the news of the opportunity of this sale to pur- chase for a trifle suitings, shoes, beots, rubber goods, blankets, hats, rifles and hundreds of odds and ends.

WEDNESDAY—8T. LOUIS POST-DISPATOH—MARCH 20, 1907

“USE CONVICTS AS CURE, SAYS DOGTOR

Declares Human-Produced An- ti-Toxin Could Be Furnished for Al! Germ Diseases. REMEDIES NOW T00 HIGH ————

Physician Asserts Accident and Old Age Should Be Only Causes of Death. Special to the Post-Dispatch. BALTIMORE, March 20.—Dr. H. Bur- ton Stevenson, president of the Balti- fore County Medical Association, said todjay’ that there should be only two unpreventable causes of death—old age and accident—and that all germ dis- eases are curable by antitoxins. Antitoxins for nearly all diseases are Obtaingd through the use of the human animal as a factorq. Some are obtain- able in no other way. Therefore, to re- duce the high costs of antitoxins ,con- victed criminals should be use for this purpose. Dr. Stevenson states: “As a result of the great discovery of antitoxins man’s allotted three-score years and ten will 800n be a myth. The twentieth century medicine will make disease a harmless indisposition and death by accident and old age only the order of the day. Sur- gery, electro-therapy and the Roentgen rays ar edaily demonstrating the fact that hitherto unconquerable diseases are yielding to treatment, and serum-thera- py, the glittering gleam of generations gone, is becoming a reality. “The use of animals to produce anti- toxins is not ample or able to meet the demand; science must have human be- ings. “This great obstacle, however, can be Overcome by using the criminals in our penitentiaries for the production of the anti-scrums. A law making the punish- ment for certain crimes optional with he convicted—imprisonment on the one nd, inoculation with. certain disease s on the other—would solve the blem for all tme. With the work the hands of experienced men, chosen ‘ier their medical acumen and not by litical influence, the human-produced Antitoxin could be furnished = which - would supply the medical profession for all, or nearly all the known diseases ue to germs. And it would not be dangerous to the subjects, either. “The antitoxin as now produced by corporations are placed at so high a fieture tha they are beyond the reach of the poor, and are such a drain upon the rich that a disinclination to their use is produced. This obstacle to the rapid development of the twéntieth century medicine could be overcome by generous State and municipal aid. * “The State now gives many thousands to the Agricultural College and experi- mental station in Prince Georges : County, in order that methods for forc- ing spring onions may be found or means to kill a plant louse discovered. Why not give as many thousands to an 3 antitoxin institution to protect the lives - of its children?” : . WONT COMPLAIN >

Joplin Girl Found With Assaii- |ASKS SUM SHE

PROMISED TO WED Aged Millionaire Sued for Di- vorce and $50,000 by His Wife. Special to the Post-Dispatch. OMAHA, Neb., March 20.—A sensa- tional suit for divorce has been filed :n the District Court here by the wife of Col. J. H. Pratt, the Omaha millionaire, formerly of Rochester, N. Y. The suit was filed last Saturday, but it was kept a secret till today. Col. Pratt is 82 years old, and his wife is 41. They were married three years ago, and the Col- onel’s 20-year-old grandson, Jerome Pratt Magee, officiated as best man. In her petition, Mrs. Pratt charges her aged husband with extreme cruelty in various forms, uncouth habits and the use of abusive language. She alleges a marriage contract in which the Colonel promised her $50,000 worth of property and she asks for this and other prop- erty besides. Col. Pratt’s daughter, Mrs. Harriett Bell Magee of Chicago; Mrs. Olson, wife of a wealthy citizen of Christiana, Nor- way, and his grandson, Jerome Pratt Magee, are named in Mrs. Pratt’s pe- tition as co-defendants. Colonel and Mrs. Pratt have Known for some time that they were having do- mestic troubles and early in the winter, when the Colonel went to Texas, it was said that he would not return to his wife. “I will not spare that woman when it comes to trial,’’ said Gen. Cowin, Col. Pratt's counsel. ‘She has talked openly and repeatedly that she married Col. Pratt for his money and nothing more, and that. she expected when she mar- ried hi mthat he would die within a year, bvt now has prospects of living to be 100 years old.”’ Col. Pratt has been living in and about San Antonio, Tex., of late. He has djarge landed interests in that State, and large land and cattle interests in Nebraska and Wyoming. He was associated in several big land and cattle deals with the late Marshall Field of Chicago.

GOTHAM-BOSTON AUTO ROAD 172-Mile Highway Would Cost $15,000,000. Special to the Post-Dispatch, BOSTON, March 20.—An ambitious project for an automobile highway, run- ning over private lands from Boston to New York, was given a hearing by the Roads and Bridges Committee of the Legislature today.* The automobilists turned out in force in its favor. Fred T. Hinds, representing the petitioners, said that the estimated cost was $70,000 a mile; the length of the proposed auto- mobile road 172 miles, and that the total cost of construction would be between $12,500,000 and $15,000,000. They proposed to charge a toll of 5 cents per mile for a large car and % cents per mile for a small car, or the gross toll of practically $8.75 for the en- tire distance for a large. car. That would pay the interest. He calculated that there would be at least 500 cars on the highway between Boston and New York daily, counting both ways. He said that he could not see why the con- trol by any commission was essentia] after the first approval as to route and land taken, but if considered necessary he would prefer that it be the highway commission, WROTE TO WIFE, CAUGHT.

The first heat prostration in St. Louls for the year 1907 occurred Tuesday. This case is believed by hospital] authorities to establish a record for this time of the year. The prostration occurred at the same hour that the temperature was breaking all previous records. That was 2p. m., when the mercury ran up to 83 degrees. Alvin Cretin, 2208 North Eleventh street, was the victim. He is employed as a fireman in the foundry of the More-Jones Brass and Metal Co. at Broadway and Dock street. The heat in the foundry was exceedingly oppres- Sive Tuesday. When Cretin succumbed he fell and cut his lip. ‘The man was taken to the City Hos- pital. It was reported Wednesday that (retin would be able to leave the hos- pital in a day or two. The next record for warm weather to thut established Tuesday was in 1894, when it was 84 on March 21. In 189 it registered 8 on March 29. ————————— — WOMAN FOUNDED CHURCHES Mrs. Monti, Helper of Italian Catholics, Dies. A solemn requiem mass will be con- ducted shortly after Easter in honor of Mrs. Charlotta Monti at St. Charles Borromeo Catholic Church, of which She was.the principal founder. News of her death on Feb. 28, in Borgonovo, Ita- ly, her birthplace, has reached St. Mrs. Monti owned much valua- ble real estate in this city, where she passed more than forty years of her life. The building occupied by the Bb. Nugent & Bro. Dry Goods Co. and val- uable pieces of property on Olive street were hers. Her nephew, Matino Monti, owns a shoe store on Franklin avenue. Mrs. Monti left America two years ago to visit her old home in Italy in the company of her niece, Mrs. George Ginocchio. She left Italy at the age of 23, a young bride, and came almost directly tc St. Louis. She was 76 years old at the time of her death. When she became interested in the es- tablishment of an _ Italian Catholic Church here, the Italian church was holding services in a rented building. She gave Rev. Father Caesar Spigardi, the pastor, a sufficient sum to pay sev- eral installments on the property at Ewing avenue and Locust streets, which was then St. John’s M. E. Church, South. Many costly fittings were after- ward given by her, including the marble altar and a handsome picture of the patron, St. Charles. By her help Father Spigardi was enabled to gather nearly all the Italians into the three churches which he founded.

Affects Insurance Suits. SAN FRANCISCO, March 20.—Judge Hunt yesterday gave instructions to a jury in his court: which have im- portant bearing on the many sults now being brought against various insurance companies which failed to pay the amount of their risk on the ground that a clause in the policies provided that the policy would be void if the building fell wholly or in part as a result of an earthquake. Judge Hunt, in instructing the jury, held that the clause applied only when the falling of the part of the building af- fected rendered the building unfit for occupation, or destroyed its useful- ress.

Harry Bryant, the leading man, sprang to the footlights and called out that there was no danger. In the meantime the exits had been_opened. The song was resumed and the audience returned to its seats. The mild-mannered man with his cane left tne theater.

He was captured about a month ago, but escaped by jumping through the win- dow of a train running at high speed. The Sheriff of Coles County, Illinois, passed through St. Louis Tuesday after- noon en route to Oklahoma City, and expected to return with his prisoner Thursday. Ryan is charged with having forged a number of checks on the business of- fice of a newspaper in Mattoon, where he was employed for about three weeks. Ernest B. Tucker, one of the employes of the paper, accompanied the Qperifr to Oklahoma City. Ryan is well known in St. Louis and fast St. Louis, where he has worked. In the latter city he was a clerk for the Wiggins Ferry Co. The reward of- fered for his apprehension will fall to Detective Danaher, whose work located him.

‘BEWARE OF *DIGESTIVES™ The Only Way to Cure Stomach Dis. orders Is by Strengthening the Digestive Organs. The ordinary pepsin tablet has ruined more stomachs than all other cause combined.

CHICO, Cal., March %.—Flood condi- tions here are serious. The village of Dreadful, near Oroville, has been en- tirely destroyed by the Feather River. Over two hundred men, women ‘and children were driven to take refuge in trees and tops of houses where they were exposed to rain and cold for 48 hours. Small boats rescued many. One boat engaged in rescue work was capsifed and seven were drowned, They were Mrs. J. W. Hogue and one child, Mrs. J. F. Dallis and two children, Mrs. Legallay and Stella Legallay. A relief train from Chico with boats, clothing and provisions was dispatched er the Northern Electric road. reach- ng the scene after some difficulty. The work of rescue continues. Fifty per- sons are still on the island and there is much suffering among the women and children. MUCH FRUIT LAND IS RUINED NEAR SAN JOSE. SAN JOSE, Cal., March 2.—More damage has been done by floods in the creeks in the last 24 hours than in the past 15 years. Erosion of the banks will cost many acres of fine fruit and farming land while the washing out of bridges, notably the Southern Pacific one on the Alamaden branch, will stop all traffic from San Jose to Los Gatos by way of Campbell for weeks. The damage in the vicinity of the latter town will reach many thousand dollars. Fruit farmers generally are of the opinion that there will be light crops this year, if some do not prove utter failures. The rains are believed to have washed out much of the pollen, which will prevent the blooms matur- ing into fruit. At San Martin, Harola Bole, the 65- rear-old son of a well-known rancher, ell into the swollen Liagas Creek and was drowned. At Santa Clara several families were driven from their homes oe, _ overfiow of the Guadeloupe reek. ‘ nt mee ; $75,000 Loss at Oroville.

Emil Glaser, regarded” as Simoon’'s whose home the killing occurred, was called first. Glaser said that before he went up- stairs in Miss Stetz’s home he heard some one outside say, “Give me the gun, and go in quick."”’ He was unable to tell who was speaking. 3 Julius Meyer said that when Simoon entered the house he grabbed him. Meyer said he was holding Simoon when the first shot was fired. The bullet pierced the floor. moon, Meyer testified, the former said: “Keep your distance, I have a machine gun.’ Meyer said he retained his grasp on Simoon and Simoon then called to Fink, according to the witness, ‘‘Shoot, and shoot to kill.’’ Edward Hibbeler, who conducts a res- from Washington, said that about 7 p. m., Sunday, the day after the shooting, Simoon and Fink came to his place anf asked for something to eat He inquire where they came from and was told by the young men they had been in Wash- ington He said they informed him they lived there and had heard of the killing the night before, but knowledge of the principals in it. W.

He swallowed a beer glass of the poison Wednesday, but by the prompt work of a physician his life was prolonged more than 24 hours, although he had taken enough of the acid to kill a score of men. Hyland was a carriage painter 60 years old. Coroner Bracy of St. Louis egy? A whose office is not far from y

the Hyland home, was called at 9 a. m. Tuesday, just after Hyland took the poison. The man said he toek it because he wanted something stronger than whisky. Members of the family told Dr. Bracy they thought Hyland had taken the acid by mistake for whisky. AMENDS ICE TRUST CASE. Sager Takes New Tack in Anti- Trust Action. To meet the objection of the defense in the Ice Trust case, as presented on demurrer, that the case was improper- ly presented, in that it named both of the two parties to the alleged unlawful act as defendants, Circuit Attorney Sa- ger Wednesday dismissed the proceeding against the Polar Wave Ice and Coal Co. and filed an amended = pet'ron charging the Merchants’ Ice and Coal Co. with entering into an unlawful pool to control rates and prices, with the Polar Wave Ice and Fuel Co. He avers that this was done Feb. 13, 1908, and he sues for penalties, under the anti-trust law, of $100 per day from that date until July 15, 1906, a total of $124,700.

I must rule according to the law.”’ Mr. Welmas said that as Justice Fitzgerald has ruled on only one ques- tion put to the witness, he would pro- ceed to ask others, and did so. “How many visits did you make to the defendant, doctor?” asked Mr. Del- mas. Mr. Jerome did not object and Dr. Hamilton said he had visited Thaw four | times on June 2? and 28 and July 7 and 8. “As a result of these visits were you of the opinion that Thaw at that time was insane?’ Mr. Jerome objected tained. “Your Honor,”’ said Mr. Delmas, ‘“‘has permitted us to give certain conversa- tions of Thaw’'s in evidence..

Mr. Delmas then asked: “Did you form any opinion, doctor?’ Justice Fitzgerald said the witness might answer this by yes or no. “Yes,’’ replied Dr. Hamilton. “State what that opinion was.’’ Mr. Jerome’s objection was sustained. Justice Fitzgerald said if he allowed Dr. Hamilton to testify at this stage of the case it might entail the re-exam- ination of all the experts for a month to come. “As long as there is legal force to the objections of the *District Attorney,” said the Judge, ‘I will decline to inter- fere as a matter of discretion." Mr. Delmas was persistent and asked Dr. Hamilton if as a result of his four visits he had reached an opinion as to the state of Thaw’s mind on Jan. 2 last. Mr. Jerome objected, saying the ques- tion was not proper sur-rebuttal, but Justice Fitzgerald allowed a yes or no answer. ‘I did form an _ opinion,’’ said Dr. Hamilton. ‘Please state to the jury your opinion as to wether or not Thaw was insane.’”’ Mr. Jerome objected and was sus- tained. Mr. Delmas then asked for 15 minutes recess for a consultation of counsel. This was allowed. Reads the Indictment. Dr. Hamilton resumed the stand after the recess and Mr. Delmas asked and received permission to read to Dr. Ham- ilton the indictment agafnst Thaw. It was read in an undertone. “In your opinion,’’ asked Mr. Del- mas, “in view of the knowledge you acquired as to the mental condition of Thaw from the four visits you made to him, did he know that the act set forth in the indictment was wrong?’’ Mr. Jerome’s objection was sustained. Mr. Delmas repeated the question in various forms. He was met each time with an objection from the .District Attorney which Justice Fitzgerald in- variably sustained. He then announled that as the result of the consultation of counsel he was ready to accept Mr. Jerome's offer to tell all he knew about the case of Harry . Thaw. “If counsel desires to conduct a full inquiry, including the hypothetical ques- tion of the District Attorney, I will not offer an objection,” said Mr. Je- rome. Mr. Delmas then said: “Now, doctor. state all the facts that you learned or observed during your four visits to the defendant.”’ To this Mr. Jerome added: ‘Include all you learned as _ to the family history on both sides while you were in the case.’”’ “What does this learned District At- torney mean by ‘while you were in this case?’’’ asked Mr. Delmas. “T mean before you came case,’’ replied Jerome. Mr. Delmas then said that District At- torney Jerome had repeatedly stated in court that if he were honestly convinced that Thaw was insane when he killed White he would not take up the time of the Court in trying him. “We propose now by your own wit- ness,’"’ said Mr. Delmas, ‘“‘to honestly convince you that Thaw was insane.’ At this point Justice Fitzgerald said he thought the jury should retire. They did so, and Mr. Jerome began an impas- sioned address to the ,Court in an ef- fort to show what nik offer to with- draw his objections and allow Dr. Ham- ilton to testify was based on. “IT want to explain and make my po- sition clear. As I understand the mat- ter, Dr. Hamilton, who was originally called into the case by the defense, is ready to testify that in his opinion this defendant was insane, that he was of unsound mind when he committed the homicide, and that as he sits at the into the

- HEALTHY CHILDREN. Made so by the Right Kind of Food.

A family doctor was shocked when he found a mother had fed a three- weeks-old baby on Grape-Nuts. But let her tell it her own way: “When my second baby was three weeks old it became necessary to feed it by means of'a bottle. At first we used cow’s milk, but it did not agree with the baby at all, although we tried a number of different formulas. “We afterwards went from one food to another without finding any that would agree. The child was not only weak and thin, but would cry pitifully almost the whole day. “One day when giving my eldest child a dish of Grape-Nuts I thought I would see if the baby would take some. “I prepared it by pouring hot milk over it and allowing it to cool. The child ate all I had prepared and went to sleep looking more satisfied than it had ever done before. “I told one physician about it and he was horrified—said a child so young could digest only milk; that I must not do it again. “So back we went to the bottle. Some weeks the child would gain an ounce, other weeks there would be no gain; twice she lost weight. “Finally, without letting anyone know it. I began giving her a little Grape-Nuts at bedtime. I noticed she would sleep longer; then I added a breakfast of Grape-Nuts to her diet. “It was not long before everyone re- marked how much better the baby was

—— a ” table today he is suffering from a men- tal disease known as paranoia, a dis- ease in which the sufferer until the last stages of the disease is capable of knowing the nature and quality of his acts. I understand that Dr. Hamilton so advised the defendant’s counsel, and that his counsel was then changed. “I am willing to throw open the doors wide; and I ask to let all hese facts come out, but I will not agree to Mr. Delmas confining his questions to these four visits and keep me down to the close limits of evidence, and not be al- lowed to go into the real facts of the case. “No Right to Try Him.”’ ‘‘Your Honor knows,” continued Dis- trict-Attorney Jerome, ‘“‘what my posi- tion here has been all along. We have no right to be here trying this man if the real facts are known. Your Honor knows that I have tried ever since this case opened to bring out these facts ee that I have not been able to do Oo. “If the real facts as to the mental condition of this defendant can be brought out the Court would be shocked and horrified and would stop this trial instantly. “So deeply have I been impressed with all this that I have served notice on the attorney of record that when this case is over, if I am convinced they possess the facts that I believe they possess, I will l&y the matter before the appellate division of the Supreme Court. “There is not a man who has seen this defendant sitting there at the table who believes he is capable of advising counsel. We are today trying a man who is insane, while under the law he is sane. He is a paranoiac, and while he is insane he is not insane in the eyes of the law, for, strictly speaking, he knows the nature and quality of his acts, “A man named Taylor went to death under exactly similar circumstances. The Appelate Court said that he was insane, but .he was a paranoiac, and while his act was committed as the re- sult of a delusion, this delusion was not such as would have made his act justifiable had it been true. It was one of the most gruesome acts the law has ever done. ‘‘In five minutes time,’’ continued Mr. Jerome, “I can show that this man is incapable of advising his counsel as he sits here in court. I will present facts which will prevent this trial from go- inz further.”’ “In view of the statement made by the Digtrict Attorney,” said Justice Fitzgerald, ‘“‘I now ask that I be given all the information in the possession of either counsel—all the evidence as to the defendant’s present state of mind which can be presented to the Court. I Go this, before instituting the proceed- ings I understand have been asked for.’’ Mr. Delmas wanted to know if a com- mission in lunacy was under discus- Fitz- gerald, “‘is asked to hear’ testimony while the jury is out of the room and then determine its course.”’ “All of my own experts, Dr. Bing- ham, the family physician and Dr. Dee- mar, the physician to the Copley family, have informed me,”’ said District Attor- ney Jerome, ‘‘that this man is suffering from paronia. This paranoia is char- acterized by systematized delustions. While suffering from one of these in- sane delusions, this man shot and killed Stanford White.’’ Did your own experts tel you that?’’ inquired Justice Fitzgerald of District Attorney Jerome. ‘“‘They certainly did,’’ replied Mr. Je- rome, ‘“‘but from the record of the case I was prevented from bringing this out. . was bound down to a hypothetical question and my witresses testified only as to the hypothetical question. There is hereditary insanity in this man, which he cannot avoid.’’ Mr. Delmas again inquired if a com- mission in lunacy had been applied for. “IT so understand it,’ said Justice Fitzgerald, “if the court Shall so de- cide.”’ “We are prepared to combat that ap- plication,’’ said Mr. Delmas. ‘“‘T have made no formal application,”’ explained Mr. Jerome. ‘I submit to your honor the fact that as he sits there the defendant is incapable of directing his defense. I leave the matter entirely to the court.”’ CITY CONTRACTS AWARDED. Quarantine and Horse Hospi- tals to Be Constructed. A contract for a quarantine hospital south of Jefferson Barracks was award- ed Wednesday by the Improvements to Gillick Bros. for $38,- 882.50. The board awarded the contract for a horse hospital for the Fire De- partment, to be located at Twentieth and North Market streets, to Duffner & Stecker for $8327. These contracts were to have been awarded March 15, but were delayed be- cause certain members of the board were marooned on an island near Par- kersburg, Va. They spent six days on the island, held there by high water, on their way back to St. Louis from Bed- ford, Mass., whither they went to in- spect a garbage plant. They were Street Commissioner Valiant, Harbor Commissioner Whyte, Sewer Commis- sioner Fardwell ard Secretary Dryden. They reached St. Louis Tuesday night. DISCUSSED CHEAPER GAS. Meeting at Y. M. ©. A. Hall Decides to Hold Another. Slips recently distributed asking the epinions of voters on the question of 3-cent street car fare and &8)-cent gas, are to be used in an effort to organize a new municipal party to further those objects.

Reno of 4007 Olive street says that pickpockets took his purse as he was boarding a west-bound car at Olive street and Jefferson avenue at 6:15 p. m., Tuesday. He declares that when he appealed to the conductor for assistance he was thrown off the car with the man he grabbed as a suspect. The purse contained papey, but no money. , uk ‘J called on the conductor to hold the man until I could get a policeman,”’ Reno said Wednesday. “Instead he jerked the man from my control ‘and threw him off the car and. then seized me. He choked me so that I.was unable to eat last night and had to go to a physician. I carried the imprints of that conductor's fingers on my neck. Finally he let go of me afd I rode out home on thé car. When I took him to task for his conduct the conductor laughed at me.”’ Patrick Hart of 3002 Pine street was robbed of a purse containing $30 and a gold ring by one of three men who boarded an Olive street car, on which he was a passenger, at Jefferson ave- nue, Tuesday evening. Hart told the police the three men jostled him and at the same time he felt his purse being slipped from his pocket. he police sent for Reno and Hart to look at a prisoner, giving his name as John Thomas, who was arrested at Union Station Tuesday night, suspect- ed of being one of a trio of pickpock- Your Red Neck Caused by rough colldrs.

Three burglars after smashing a plate glass window in the store of Diel Broth- ers and stealing eight pairs or trousers, were pursued by policemen at 2 a. m., Wednesday. One man was arrested. The plunder was dropped in the cnase and recovered. Attracted by the sound of breaking glass five policemen hurried to Ninth and Olive streets and saw three men running south on Ninth toward Pine street. The officers started after the fugitives and the latter ran. through the rooming house of Mrs. Mary Kear- ney, 1004 Pine street, and escaped. In the hallway of the house the police found the stolen garments where they had been dropped. An hour after the chase the police arrested a man whom they found loung- ing about in the neighborhood of where the robbery was committed. So far there is no evidence to connect him with the crime.

Doellner, the master painter, at 39381 Castleman avenue, Wednesday morning, had a tooth for table delicacies, but didn’t get 4a chance to satisiy it. They left their edible booty behina in a rapid flight, hastened by pistol shots, and had no chance to get any valuables, €8S was the case when the same house was robbed two weeks ago. Wednesday. Mr. Doellner was aroused Wednes- day morning aboypt 4 o’clock by his little daughter Catherine, who cried for a drink. After quieting her he was about to retire when he saw a light shining under a door opening upon the rear stair from the second floor. Securing a revolver he went to a porch opening out from his bedroom on the rear of the house. Other mem- bers of the family went to the lower floor. The movement frightened the thieves, who fled from the house and across the back of the lot, Mr. Doell- ner firing three shots at them without effect. Examination showed that, with the aid of a stepladder taken from a shed, they had forced their way into a pantry at the rear of the house, from which they had taken a supply of coffee, sugar, ketchup, salad _ oll, Olives, ete., placing the booty under the rear porch. Unable to force an entrance from the pantry to the rear part of the house they used similar tactics at the kitchen window and, apparently, got far enough to prepare for hasty flight by opening the kitch- en door from within before being dis- covered by Mr. Doellner. Two weeks ago Wednesday morning the same house was entered and a gold watch and chain and _ several trinkets of value taken. The watch and chain belonged to Mr. Engelmann, father of Mrs. Doellner. t Stein for Blind Veteran. Members of the Gen.

Terminal Agent Says It Needs More Track Room. — The known friendliness of George H. Donnewald for the McKinley line fran- chise bill is advanced as a cause for the action of the Terminal Association In ordering the Donnewald Ice and Coal Co. to vacate Terminal property at 1622 Clark avenue. Fricnds of Donnewald say this action is in reprisal for his advocacy of the McKinley line. Four other coal com- panies occupying neighboring offices were also ordered to vacate them, Joseph L. Penney. traffic manager for the Terminal, denied Wednesday that McKinley line sympathy had anything to do with the order to vacate the of- fices. He sald the Terminal wanted more track room on Clark avenue, and contemplated the order to vacate be- fore the McKinley bill was introduced into the Municipal Assembly. Nurses’ Pay Almost Doubled.

“MEMBERSHIP CARDS

IN POST-DISPATCH LEAGUE ARE READY i Ae

eee CE eet —— in Games—Season The Public School Baseball League Department of the Post-Dispatch has had membership cards prepared and these will be issued to the managers of the different clubs. The object is to event arguments that might arise tween contesting teams if a charge were made that a member or members of any team was a “ringer.”’ These cards must be signed by the principals of the schools represented, and then countersigned by the editor of the league at the Post-Dispatch of- fice. The cards will be kept by the managers to be exhibited in case of any dispute. As the season opens Saturday, April 16, the editor urges the managers to get their cards immediately. Twelve

When the cards are brought to the ed- itor of the League the names of the boys on them will be put in an alpha- betically indexed book. A_ telephone call to the office of the editor will en- able managers and captains and others to learn whether any boy is a member of the League or not. The editor of the League has been asked if the season will continue after the close of the schewols for the sum- mer. It will not, principally because it would be hard to keep the boys to- gether when the summer vacation be- gins, as many of them will leave town. The final games will be played a few days before the commencement exer- cises are held at the different schools.

Funeral of E. H. Hokamp. The funeral of Edward H. Hokamp, a well-known bowler of St. oLuis, who died Tuesday, will be held Friday from his home, 2007 Mallickrodt street, to the Bethlehem Lutheran Church, Florissant avenue and Salisbury street.

The man who strikes another with a foul blow, or maliciously tries to in- jure him in his business, or in his social standing is detested and abhorred. The American people are not generally slow to manifest their disapproval of such unfair treatment when an opportunity is afforded. Illustrative of this yg ogy is the fact that although base, false and ma- erce, of Buffalo, and his widely celebrated Family sometimes injured the sale of these meritorious remedies for a licious attacks upon Dr Medicines have time, yet when such unjust assaults have been met and their falsehoods com- pletely refuted, a natural reaction has followed and restored again. their sale has been fully In the case of the Ladies’ Home Journal, of Philadelphia, which, in 1904.

Dr. Pierce and his “Favorite Preseription’—the well-known cure for woman’s

peculiar weaknesses and distressing ailments--Dr. Pierce brought suit in the

Supreme Court of the State of New York against the publishers of that paper

and a verdict was given the Doctor, the judgment being for a substantial

amount ($16,000.00), vet not for enough to properly recompense Dr. Pierce for

the great injury and injustice done him. While he and his “Favorite Prescrip-

tion” were completely vindicated and the latter remedy was proven, in open

court, to contain no alcohol and none of the dangerous and injurious drugs

which the above mentioned paper had alleged it contained, yet Dr. Pierce has,

through his attorneys, moved for a new trial trusting that thereby he mav

finally be accorded a more just and adequate compensation for the great dam-

‘age which he was made to suffer by reason of the base falsehoods published

concerning him and his business.

al There are hundreds of thousands of peo- ple all over this Dilessed country of ours - Who have been cured of obstinate, chronic diseases through the use of Dr. Pierce's Medicines and it is only natura] that such people should rise up and speak their sent!- ments pretty freely when Dr. Pierce and hig medicines are so unjustly attacked. These grateful patients of Dr. Pierce are to be found in almost every hamlet and country village, and in the farm houses and mechanics’ cottages in every nook and corner of thie great country. O©ommon gratitude prompts euch people to stand up and defend Dr. Pierce and his medicines against unjust and malicious at‘acks. Dr. Pierce's Medicines have. been on sale in drug stores all over this country and in many foreign lands for more than forty years, and yet their sale continues to grow in a substantial and most gratifying way. This could not be ths case if they were not remedies of more than ordinary merit. WHAT DO THRY CURE? Dr. Pierce Favorite Prescription is not advertised as a ‘‘Oure All.’ but admirably fulfills a singleness of purpose, being a su- perior and most positive remedy for one Class Of diseases only—those easily recog- nized weaknesses peculiar to women, It is a powerful, yet gently acting, invigorating tomle and strengthening nervine, For weak. wern-ont, over-worked women—no matter what has caused the break down—if from much worry, care or over exertion of any kind, ‘‘Favorite Prescription’’ will be found most efficient in boiiding up the strength, regulating all the womanly functions, ban- ishing pain and bringing about a regular and healthy, vigorous condition of the whole system. in short, it makes weak women strong and sick women weil.

HE HAD SERVED TIME

She Finally Left Him Upon Learning his Record From Halifax Authorities. By Leased Wire From the New York Bureau of the Post-Dispatch. NEW YORK, March 20.—Like woman in Conan Doyle's story who dis- covered that her eminently respectable husband made his big income by profes- sional begging on street corners, Mrs. Edna Howard of 414 West Fifty-third street, discovered that her husband of ten months was not all that she fondly believed him. But, unlike that woman, she did not call in a Sherlock Holmes to solve the mystery. Shocked at his incoherent raving of jails and sheriffs, as he lay asleep by et side, she decided to be her own de- ective. Her sucess was so great in finding out his record that she left him and this morning he will be examined in the Adams Street Court in Brooklyn, charged with assaulting her on Henry street in that borough Monday night. Her counsel is Gen. Horatio C. King, who is interested in her case in a philanthropic way, and Mrs. Hillis, wife of the Rev. Dr. Newell Dwight Hillis, will probably appear with her. Mrs. Hillis has been a friend to Mrs. Howard through all her troubles of the last few months. Mrs. Howard is petite and pretty, about 25 years old. Previous to meet- ing Howard sne had earned a living by acting as maid in the offices of doc- tors and dentists. She was alone in the world, with the exception of a married brother, who at present is giving her a home, and about Jan. 1, 1906, being with- out a position, she cast about for a permanent home, Advertised for Husband. “I put a matrimonial ad in a paper,’ said Mrs. Howard. “I suppose it was an awfully silly thing to do, but I had known of people being happily married that way, and I: was so lonesome and so tired of working hard for my living. I zot an answer pretty soon, and made arrangements to meet him. We met in the Postoffice at the corner of Fourth avenue and Twenty-third street. I had an elderly woman with me. ‘He was well dressed, very courteous and polite, and’ we decided to go to the theater together that night. All of us went. After that for about five months our courtship went on. We cor- responded a great deal, and every time he came to see me he was as courteous as he could be. May 2, 1906, we were married in 8t. George’s Church in Brooklyn. ‘‘Almost as soon as I married him le changed completely. Within three weeks he beat me. I was hurt, and my ideals were smashed; but I thought it was an exhibition of temper that would pass and I loved him. But -it was the frightful things he _ talked about in his sleep that scared me and made me suspicious of him. He talked all the time about sheriffs and jails. On@ night he said he had shot some- one. I couldn’t understand half what he said, because it was so indistinct, but it frightened me. That night he told about shooting some one, I sat up by the window all night, afraid of I didn’t know what. “It was on my mind continually. Then, when I went one day to pay some money he had _=§ borrowed before he married me, I found out that Howard wes not his real name. I said I want- ed to make a payment from Mr. How- ard, and the woman said, ‘You mean James A. Legge.’ I started from that time to trace him. I found that he was working for a chemical company of Front street by the name of Legge, and that he had worked at several places in New York and lived at sev- eral places under the name of James Legge. At one of his boarding houses in Brooklyn the landlady said he was a ‘treasure.’ Said He Was Bad Man. “All this time his terrible talk at night went on and got more and more certain that he was not the man he appeared to be. He told me once that he had been a bad man, but nota very bad man, and that always he had been honest. “We were living in Brooklyn and attending Plymouth Church. Mrs. Hil- lis was lovely to me and all the ladies were nice. He talked a great deal about Boston and Halifax. Finally I couldn't stand it any longer. I wrote to Nicholas Power, Chief of Police in Halifax, and asked him. He said that my husband was well known in Halifax and had served a term for incendiar- ism and he had a bad reputation all round there. “IT accused him of it and he laughed and said that was a cousin and he felt ashamed to have it known that anyone in his family ever did such a thing. Then he kept talking at night and I at last sent his picture to the Halifax authorities. Word came back at once that he was the man without a doubt and that he had served a term also in the Dorchester, (N. B.) Pent- tentiary for assaulting and robbing a woman in Halifax. This was the case he was always talking about at night. “Then I left him.”’ the

THE RAILROAD CASE. In an address to the Cincinnati Receivers’ and Shippers’ Association, Cov. Hoke Smith of Georgia referred to the campaign now being waged for the conrol of railroads and the regulation of railroad rates on a fair basis, as not in any sense a struggle of labor against capital or of poverty against prop- erty, but as a struggle for the rights of/ property owners and their employes against the mismanage- ment of quasi-public corporations. He said that the mismanagement of the railroads, with the pil- ing up of watered securities, is an assault upon the rights and interests of the men owning indus- trial and manufacturing enterprises and agricultural interests, and of the great body of the people de- pendent upon these activities. Gov. Smith pointed out that the control of rail- roads had passed from practical managers to bank- ers and financiers who speculated in railroad stocks. He said that of the thirteen billions of railroad cap- italization only six billions represented actual values and the other seven billions consisted of watered stocks and bonds, which is equivalent to a perma- nent mottgage to that amount on the industries of the people. The proceeds of these watered. stocks and bonds, which should have been applied to con- struction and betterment, were used to pile up enormous fortunes, and instead of maintaining rates on the basis of a fair return on the money actually invested, the rates are maintained to earn interest and dividends on watered securities. The injustice of this is manifest. Gov. Smith has fairly stated the case, and until the water is squeezed out.of: railroad stocks and bonds and the railreads come down to the basis of fair service for fair compensation, the campaign must go on. : The United States Supreme Court has decided that the flag shall not be allowed on a beer bottle. Per- haps the beer is considered sufficiently stimulating to all true patriots. a > PUBLICITY AND EDUCATION. - In the interests of publicity, philology, higher lit- erary education and ethics, the St. Louis League or- ganized to “defend the scriptures from unbelief, ir- reverence and higher criticism” is an organization of which St. Louis may be proud.

The President ‘has further strengthened the na- tion by joining the National Rifle Association of America. rT Ye FAIR PLAY. In the argument Hon. Cyrus P. Walbridge is re- ported to have made before Gov. Folk in favor of exempting telephone companies from home rule rég- ulation of public service corporations, the plea is that being comparatively new industries, telephone companies cannot command capital for their exten- sion unless they can rely on having fair play. The question of whether they can expect fair play or not is only to be decided from the past, from the history of the State as it has been made since the first mile df railroad track west of the Mississippi River was laid in Missouri. The history of the State, of all parts of the State, of all the communities which compose the State, is a record not only of fair play, but of large and often prodigal liberality to public service corpora- tions, including railroads, telegraphs, telephones and all others which stand for modern progress. The question of whether these publie service cor- porations have played fair with the public is another question. But regardless of the answer, there will be no retribution, no “getting even;” nothing done for spite or for any other reason than to further their highest interests and the highest interests of progress. They will get fair play, and they need not. be afraid of it. It will not hurt them. It will do them good.

that we do not boil it at all.

O REAR a boy under what parents call the ‘‘sheltered life system’’ is, if the boy must go into the world and fend for himself, not wise. Unless he be one in a thousand he has certainly to pass through many unnec- essary troubles, and may, possibly, come to extreme grief simply from ignorance of the proper proportion of things. There was a boy once who had been brought up under the “sheltered life’ theory: and the theory killed him dead. He stayed with his people all his days, from the hour he was born until the hour he went into Sandhurst nearly at the top of the list. He was beautifully taught in all that wins marks by a pri- vate tutor, and carried the extra weight of “never having given his parents an hour's anxiety in his life.’ What he learned at Sandhurst beyond the regular routine is of no great consequence. Now, India is a place beyond all oth- ers where one must not take things too seriously—the midday sun always ex- cepted. Too much work and too much energy kill a man just as effectively as too much assorted vice or too much @rink. Fiirtation does not matter, be- Cause every one is being transferred and either you or she leave the station. and never return. Good work does not matter, because a man is judged by his Worst output, and another man takes al) the credit of his best, as a rule. But this Boy—the tale is as old as the hilis—came out, and took all things seri- ously. He was pretty and was pettea. He took the pettings seriously, and fret- ted over women not worth saddling a pony to call upon. He found his new free life in India very good. It does look attractive in the beginning, from & subaltern’s point of view—all ponies, partners, dancing and so on. He quarreled with other boys and, be- ing sensitive to the marrow, remem- bered these quarrels and they excited him. He found whist and gymkhanas -@nd things of that kind (meant to @muse one after office) good; but he took them eeriousty, too, just as serious- ly as he took the “head” that followed after drink. He lost his money over whist and gymkhanas because they some seven times befote. Of course, We couldn’t tell how his excesses struck him personally. They were nothing very heart-break- ing or above the average. He might be 2rippled for life financially, and want a little nursing. Still, the memory ot his performances would wither away in one hot weather, and the shroff would help him to tide over the money trou- bles. But he must have taken an- Other view altogether and have believed himself reigned beyond redemption, His Colonel taiked to him severely when the cold weather ended. That made him more wretched than ever, and it was only an odinary “Colonel's wigging!’’ What follows is a curious instance of the fashion in which we are all linked together and made responsible for one another. The thing that kicked the beam in the Boy’s mind was a remark that a woman made when he was talk- ing to her. There is no use in repeat- ing it, for it was only a cruel litt!e sen- tence, rapped out before thinking, that made him flush to the roots of his hair. He kept himself to himself for three days, and then put in for two days’ leave to go shooting near a Canal En- Bineer's. Rest House, about thirty iniles out. He got his leave. and that aight at mess was noisier and more offensive than ever. He said that he was “gcing to shoot big game,” and left at 10:20 o'clock in an ekka. Partridge—whicn Was the only thing a man could get near the Rest House—is not big guine; so every one laughed. Next morning one of the Majors came in from short leave, and heurd that the Boy had gone out to shoot ‘“‘big game.”’ The Major had taken an interest in the Licy, and had, more than once, tried to check him in the cold weather. The Ma- jor put up his eyebrows when he heard of the expeditian and went to the Boy's rooms, Whepe he rummaged. Presently he came out and found me leaving cards on the Mess. There was no one else in the ante-room. He said: “The Boy has gone out shoot- ing. Does a man shoot tetur with a revolver and a writing case!” I said: ‘‘Nonsense, Major!"’ for I saw What was in his mind. He said: “Nonsense or no ro onsense, I'm going to the Canal now-—at once. 1 LN NT A LEE I AR AEE TS CAE a

iiaiinedsie a ae ee Superior in Strength Dr. Price's Flavoring Extracts are su- perior in strength, freshness and fine- don't feel easy.’’ Then he thought for a minnte, and said: ‘Can you lie?’’ “You know best,”’ I answerel. “it's my profession.”’ “Very well,’ said the Majer, “you must come out with me now—nt once— in an ekka to the Canal to shoot black- buck.. Go and put on shikar-kit—quick— and drive there with a gun.” The Major was a masterful man; and I knew that he would not give orders for nothing. So I obeyed, and on fre- turn found the Major packed up in an ekka—gun-cases and food slung below— all ready for a shooting trip. : When we came to the Canal Engi- neer’s Rest House the Major called for the Boy’s servant; but there Was Nv an- swer. Then we went up to the house, calling for the Boy by name; but there Was no answer. “Oh, he’s out shooting,”’ said I. Just then I saw through one of the windows a little hurricane lamp burn- ing. This was at 4 in the afternoon. We both stopped dead in the veranda, holding our breath to catch every sound, and we heard, inside the room, the “brr—brr—brr”’ of a multitude of flies. The Major said nothing, but he took off his helmet and we entered very sott- y. The boy was dead on the charpoy in the center of the bare, lime-washed room. He had shot his head nearly to pleces with his revolver. The gun cases were still strapped, so was the bedding, and on the table lay the Boy’s writing case with photographs. He had gone away to die like a pol- soned rat! The Major said to himself, softly: “Poor Boy! Poor, poor devil!’ Then he turned away from the bed and said: “ want your help in this business.” Knowing the boy was dead bv_ his own hand, I saw exactly what that help would ‘be, so I passed over to the table, took a chair, lit a cheroot and began to go through the writing case. The Major, looking over my shoulder and repeating to himself: ‘‘We came too late! Like a rat in a hole! Poor, poor dev- gu” The boy must have spent half the night in writing to his people, to_ his Colonel and to n girl at home; and as soon as he had finished must have shot himself, for he had been dead a long time when we came in. I read all that he had written and passed over each sheet to the Major as I finished it. We saw from his accounts how very seriously he had taken everything. He wrote about “disgrace which he was unable to hear’’—indelible shame’’— HOW ABOUT YOUR FLOORS?

The Major made no attempt to keep dry-eyed, I respected him for that. He read and- rocked himself to and fro, and simply cried like a woman without car- ing to hide it. The letters were s0 dreary and hopeless and touching. We forgot all about the boy’s follies, and only thought of the poor thing on the charpoy and the scrawled sheets in our hands. It was utterly impossible to let the letters go home. They would have broken his fathef’s heart and killed his mother after killing her belief in her son. At last the Major dried his eyes open- ly and said: “Nice sort of thing to spring on an English family! What shall we do?” “I said, knowing what the Major had brought me out for: é “The boy died of cholera. We were with him at the time. We can't com- mit ourselves to half-measures. Come along.”’ Then began one of the most grimly comic scenes I have ever taken part in —the concoction of a big written lie, bolstered with evidence, to soothe The Boy’s people at home. I began the rough draft of the letter, the Major 2 throwing in hints here and there whil« he gathered up all the stuff that The Roy had written and burned it in tue fireplace. It was a hot, still evening when we began, and the lamp burned very badly. In due course I got the draft to my satisfaction, setting forth how The Boy was the pattern of all virtues, beloved by his regiment, with every promise of a great career beforé him, and so on: how we had helped him through the sickness—it was no time for Jittle lies, you will undeestand—and how he had died without pain. I am afraid to say how much whisky we drank before the letter was finished. It had not the least effect on us. Then we took off The Boy’s watch, locket and rings. ‘ Lastly, the Major said: “We must send a lock of hair, too. A woman val- ues that.”’ But there were reasons why we could not find a lock fit to send. The Boy was black-haired, and so was the Ma- jor, luckily. I cut off a piece of the Major's hair above the temple with a knife and put it into the packet we were making. We sealed up the packet, photographs, locket, seals. ring, letter and lock of hair with The Boy's sealing wax and The Boy's Seal. ; Then the Major said: “For God's sake let’s get outside—away from the room-—and think!’ I went off to a village and borrowed two big hoes—I did not want the vil- lagers to help—while the Major ar- ranged—the other matters. It took us four hours’ hard work to make the grave As we worked we argued out whether it was right to say as much as we remembered of the Burial of the 'veaad. We compromised things by say- ing the Lord’s Prayer with a private unofficial prayer for the peace of the soul of The Boy. Then we filled in the grave and went into the veranda— not the house—to lie down to sleep. We were dead tired. When we woke the Major said wear- ily: “We can't go back till tomorrow. We must give him a decent time to die in. He died early this morning, remem- ber. That seems more natural.’ So the Major must have been lying awake all the time thinking. Ek said. “Then why didn't we bring the body back to cantonments? The Major thought for a minute: “Because the people bolted when they heard of the cholera. And the ekka has gone!” Olympic: “The Lion and the Mouse.”—Gertrude Coghlan a hit as the new Shirley Rossmore, and Arthur Byron as “Ready Money” Ryder repeats last season's success.

Most of the ten-pinners, however, are paying more attention to discussing the coming election of officers to be’ held tomorrow afternoon, than .the ‘scores. Garry Hermann and Hooert Brownson are the only two nominees for the presi- dency. Bryson is the present leader of the association. It seems from the talk about the tournament buildin that J.

Cincinnati seems most like- ly to win out over St. Paul, Minn. in the fight for the location of next year’s congress. Five men were nominated for the sec- retaryship at a meeting of the executive committee yesterday. D. J. Sweeney, the secretary of the St. Louis executive committee and G. H. Rautenberg of St. Louis, are named as candidates for the honors. Sweeney will porbably be the man elected. Charles G. Wilson of Chi- cago has quite a number of supporit- ers. Abe Langtry of Milwaukee and [Ed Peiffer of Chicago are the other candi- dates. Soem good bowling was recorded yes- terday.

St. Louis will have a strong team in the American League compared with that of the Nationals. Mack’s men appear to field the game in a fair man- ner, but their stick work is weak.

Blakely has been pitching exhibition ames here all winter and is in the pink of condition. When he went into the box yes- terday he allowed but one man to reach first. This illustrates how weak the Cardinals are in this department of the game. Beckley played first base in . glistening style. Jake handled everything that came his way in easy fashion . 2 and did something with the stick, it being his honor to be the only man who bio Was able to get the kinks out of Blakely’s bepders. _ Jake placed the ball for two bases, but tried to make it three and was ~- flagged at third. Byrne and Zimmerman held down the third corner and the . jatter had all the best of the showing. Byrne did not put the proper life _ {nto his work and with the bat he was a frost. Zimmerman did fairly well. “= Holly and Crawford played short and it was a tossup as to which made the ‘il Both stopped everything that came their way and each Mi Crawford is a little too fat yet, which acts as a handicap in his getting over the ground. He is also unable to use the hand throw, but he gets the bel! over just the same. Crawford’s knack saving time in winging the ball to the corner after he has got hold of it makes him a favorite with the fans. The outfield shows room for vast improvement. None of the men could hit as they should and their stick work is hardly worth taking into consider- ation. The throws to the plate fall short and with the exception of perhaps Burch, none of them can make the distance in @& throw. When a man is on third, a long fly to the field invariably results in a score. Pug Bennett plays his usual game on second and yesterday handled every- thing which came his way. Ever since he has been here he has shown a tend- ency to soak the ball square on the nose and his reputation is being main- tained. Pug is all right when he plays the game. ‘Beebe acted as umpire yes- terday and did not get into the game.

According to report, Mertes told his troubles to Hermann and asked his ad- vice.

THIRTY DAYS FOR FOLEY. Is Charged With Assault on Conductor. Henderson testified Tuesday that sev- eral men on the car refused to pay their fares. After an argument, the matter of fares was adjusted and peace reigned until a passenger sitting in the front ofr the car beckoned to him. He charges that as he passed Foley, who was on the rear platform, he was struck be- hind the ear and felled. As he lay on the floor of the car, he said that he) was struck again and charged Foley) with the assault. The car was near the North Market Street Police Station when he was struck and he called for help, several policemen responding. The crowd, he said, ran and Foley was captured after a short chase. When searched at the station a loaded revolver was found in his pocket. The finding of the revol- ver was the basis of a charge of car- rying concealed weapons which was placed against him. Foley, before his trial, told a Post- Dispatch reporter he had nothing to do with the attack on the conductor. “It's just a case of ‘Tony Foley,’ snid he. ‘I was on the car and as soon as the police saw me they yelled ‘grab Foley.’ It’s always ‘grab Foley’ when- ever I'm near any trouble.

Mining Directors in Suit. Henry Steinecke, Charles Knauer, Vic- tor V. Ernst, Theodore J. Flack, Joseph Durban and L. F. Kaltenbach.’ directors of the May Mining Co., applied to the Circuit Court for an injunction against Theodore H. Thorwegan, the remaining director. The application is to restrain him from assuming to act as president of the corporation, call a meeting of dl- rectors or conduct an election and asks for an order of court to compel him to turn over the papers and records of the company. The petition states that Thor- wegan was president up to March IH, 1908, when Steinecke was elected to suc- eeed him. Thorwegan, it is stated, has refused to recognize this action and has held to the books of the company. _——

HARRIMAN WARKS | SMALL FINANCIERS Rock Island Crowd Will Get Enough of Market, in His Opinion, By Leased Wire From the New York Bureau of the Post-Dispatch. NEW YORK, March 20.—If E. H. Harriman’s more or less unspoken re- marks today mean anything, they are a warning to small boys in Wall street to keep close to’shore. There will be something doing which may require gum boots and fong slits to keep out of the wet. Mr. Harriman had the ap- pearance of @ man harassed with trou- bles which were not lightened by relays of newspaper reporters seeking to ply him with questions about the stock market slump and depressed financial conditions that have hard. Mr. Harriman was monosyllabic and enigmatical in his replies. ‘In days like these you can hear all

large store with and cca kinds of rumors, and it would be a | waste of time to affirm or deny them,’’ |he said. ‘“‘Up to date there has been ‘only one side of the market. Now there is going to be another side. The ' bears have had their innings. Let them play it out. Don’t worry about the market. It will take care of itself when the time comés.’’ There is bitter feeling between Mr. Harriman and the group of Chicago and Indiana financiers headed by Judge F. H. Moore and Daniel G. Reid, who con- trol the Rock Island road. The latter are supposed to have furnished the am- munition for the recent exposure of the Harriman management of the Alton road. Mention was made that the Rock Island crowd was credited with raiding the market. “So they are at it again!’ exclaimed Mr. Harriman. “I guess they witll get enough!’’ 4 COUNT LAMSDORFF EXPIRES [hv ITALY -_

Former Russian Minister of Foreign Affairs Passes Away After Long Illness. SAN REMO, Italy, March 20.—Count Viadimir Nicolaevitch Lamsdorff, for- mer Russian Minister of Foreign Af- fairs, died here last night as the result of a complication of diseases. He had been ill since May, 1906. After leaving St. Petersburg at that time he devoted his time to trying to recover his health. Last December he was reported to be suffering from heart disease and but little hope for his recovery was enter- tained then Count Lamsdorff was born in St. Petersburg in 1844, and, after the usual training for official life, he entered the Home Office. In 1872 he was transferred to the Foreign Office, where he speedily won the hearts of his superiors by do- ing all their work for them and allow- ing them to take all the credit. It was Count Lamsdorff who, first of all. Russian Ministers, emphasized his convictions of the greatness of the character of the present Emperor. It was Count Lamsdorff who first took up the basilic suggestion as to the inter- national conference for the arrange- ment of armaments. And it was Count Lamsdorff who, during, the whole of Count Muravieff’s tenure of the office, was, under the Emperor, the real di- rector of the foreign policy of Russia. When Alexander III became Czar he was attached to his suite for a time, and accompanied him on several of his journeys, while with the present Czar, both before and after his ascension, he was always In very close touch.

No man will ever be able to make it again because they’re not making pilots as they used to. “I’m not used to boasting, but so many things are said against the Mis- souri River that I want to say all I can in her favor.” Capt.

The present Mrs. Dewey traveled on Capt. Massie’s boat several times. He was a boat owner and captain at that time.

The operation was first thought to have been successful, but a few days ago Mr. Aldrich suffered a relapse. He is Survived by a wife and one son, Tal- bot B.

He was ina Sense the sole connecting link be- tween the old and the new literary schools in America. When Oliver Wendell Holmes died— the last leaf upon the tree’’—Mr. Ald- rich was designated by sentiment as the most likely successor of the ge- nial autocrat, and for all that he was lacking in the warmly intimate ap- peal of the graceful Holmes, he was better qualified for the distinction than any other writer of the day. Born in Portsmouth, N.
