ST. ALPHONSUS WINS BY 6-2: CENTRAL BY 2 TO 1

Friends of Each Nine Have Chances at Times to Cheer Many Brilliant Plays Made and Few Costly Errors—Games Up to Professional Standard.

Yesterday was the greatest day known. amateur baseball in St. Louis has ever Two games of unprecedentedinterest and importance were played at the Stadium of Washington University before a large crowd of enthusiastic spectators, who marveled at the professional-like skill of the boy players and praised the enterprise of the Post-Dispatch in arranging the exhibition. In one game the best high school teams of St. Louis and Chicago contested for supremacy. In the other the best public school team and parochial school team battled for the grammar school championship of St. Louis. Both games were prettily played and crowned with success the Post-Dis- patch’s efforts for organized basebailin the grammar schools of St. Louis and for developing interest in inter-city contests. The local championship game was played Church School team, champions of the Post-Dispatch Parochial League, feating the score of 6 to 2. Before the ninth inning was started the players of the Fields and St. phonsus teams were presented with gold medals by sentative. the city championship.

Rissman responded by whacking a bounder at Purcell, who picked it up Cleaniy, but threw low and wide to first. The throw did no damage, how- cyer, as Wyman forced Rissman and then was thrown out stealing, after Purcell had partly redeemed hirnself by Cathing a fly from Fox. In Central’s half the first two bat- ters were easy money for Wyman and Feiffert, while Fucik pickled Purcell at first. Error Not Costly.

With this support, Holland got into his form, and up to the ninth Inning didn’t allow a hit. In the first innings of the game, the playing of the boys was a revelation to the older spectators at the grounds. All the little tricks seen at the big league games these youngsters seemed to be perfectly fa- miliar with. The game was one of the best exhibi- tions of the schoolboy baseball ever seen in St. Louis, ' The St. Alphonsus team piled up its tallies by careful, sci- @ntific playing. ‘There was no “going up in the air’ on the part of the Fields.

TIMELY THOUGHTS ON C URRENT BY

HINKERS OF TODA

[ SECRET OF SUCCESS | we HERE’S a strong point in the following ] story which may serve as @ Sermon to those who have eyes to see and ears to hear. By A. 8. Monroe. A N old fisherman gave me the lesson, and I think it so good that I shall pass it on. Perhaps a dozen of us were hanging our feet over a pier which extended out into the Pacific Ocean and holding on to one end of a fishing line, the other end of which was baited and sunk into the briny sea, to attract unwary fish. In the .group ef ardent fishers were men and women, boys and girls, experienced fishers and amateurs. Every once in awhile there would be a sudden jerk on a line, a quick hand-over-hand hauling in, would be dangling in the air a porgie. Everyone would get excited for a few mo- ments, watching the landing of the prize, then set- tle back to a closer contemplation of his own line. The queer part of it was that some would sit there hour after hour and never catch a single fish, while others would haul them in almost as fast as they threw out their lines. This brought about a discus- sion as to the whys and wherefores. “17'S all in the bait you use!” declared one. “NO it isn’t, for I'M using the same bait as this boy who has caught a dozen and I have caught none,”’ protested another. “Tt’s the hook,” suggested the third. “It’s the line—these lines are too heavy, the fish can see them,” said a fourth. “It’s keeping still and attending to business,”’ said a fifth, who had evidently been accustomed to trout fishing. An “old salt’’ who had been a silent observer now gave such an audible grunt that all looked toward him for the explanation, which he evidently could give if he would. ‘“'Taint the bait, nor the hook, nor the line, nor keepin’ still, nor yet so much luck; its jest know- in’ when you've got a bite,’’ he said. Every face was incredulous. As if anyone would git there with a fish on his hook and not know it! The idea was preposterous. ‘"'Taint allus so easy to tell when you've got a bite as you might think,” he went on, evidently reading the thoughts back of the unbelieving faces. “There's the breakers dashing against the line sometimes, and there’s crabs getting a hold, and eating steady on the bait, and then your hand gets tired and you let your line slack, so you can’t feel the little nib- bles; and then there's just the nateral instinct that seems to tell some people when to pull in.” I hadn't had much luck fishing, but I sat on pon- dering over the old man’s words, and thinking how truly they represent the great secret of success in one’s larger undertakings.

AMERICAN JUSTICE. The breakdown of American justice, as the Lon- don Mail deems -it, accounts for that loss of confi- dence in courts of law which, it fears, Is “the most serious political fact’’ our statesmen have to deal with. It traces the difficulty to an inefficiency of American judges generally, ‘‘which no One denies,” and to the great importance attached to mere tech- nicalities when it is a question of ‘“‘some great cor- poration on the one hand and an elementary princi- ple of popular government on the other.’”” The use of the writ of injunction is, says a writer in the London Post, ‘‘a flagrant scandal.”’ No English court, says this conservative daily, ‘“‘would pervert the writ of injunction with such indifference to every consid- eration of fair play’’ as Federal courts have done “time and again.”’ | and soon there beautiful gold-tipped

MANUAL TRAINING MM ANUAL training as an essential to dental education was the subject of a paper read before the National Dental As- sociation at Atlanta by a St. Lows dentist,

|The following excerpts are taken from this By Dr. Burton Lee Thorpe. paper: AYDEN, whom we may safely denominate the H “father of dental science,’ Was a carpenter and architect; Eleazer Parmly Was a printer by trade; W, H. Atkinson and W. W. Allport were both taltlors’ apprentices; Elisha Townsend Wag a watcnmaker in hig early youth; John Green, a maker of nautical and mathematical instruments; Amos Westcott, an inventor of agricultural imple- ments; Edward Maynard, a blacksmith, civil en- gineer, and architect, and later one of the world’s greatest inventors; 8. P. Hullihen, a silversmith by trade; Marshall H. Webb and W. G. A. Bonwill, inventive prodigies; John J. R. Patrick and N. C. Keep, jewelers and’ diamond-setters; Elisha Neall, & traveling tinker and clock and watch repairer, while many others followed similar vocations, or ob- tained a crude manual training in early youth on the farm, which is one of the best schools to give the man self-reliance and manipulative dexterity; for it is a fact that when a man is able to do things, both mechanical and artistic, he possesses a degree of self-reliance, self-mastery, judgment, and poise of character obtainable by no other means. Probably the best fruit of manual training is the acquiring of the habit of mechanical analysis, which can be learned only by actual work with tools and materials. In ancient times, ‘“‘Schools were for the study and mastery of books. The arts of the school- room were for masters and freemen, hence they were noble and were called liberal arts. The arts of the mechanics were for serving-men, and were acquired only by intimate association with mechanics; so the practical arts were held to be degrading because of Criticisms and ob- jections to educational manual training have ap- peared with less frequency in later years, and the object and value of such training is rapidly being recognized throughout the civilized world. Men of all ages have recognized the value of skill gained in the use of tools. Vulcan, Archimedes, J. J. Rous- seau, Peter the Great, our own Emerson, and many others advocated systematic instruction and practice in the details of an occupation. In days past it was taken for granted that the avenue by which mechan- ical skill could be acquired lay only through ap- prenticeship. The writer fully believes that if a course in manual training were a preliminary requirement to the dent- al college curriculum, the same as an academic pre- paratory course is a requirement for entrance to any of our great universities, all dentists of the future would be so thoroughly equipped in technical skill that each would be competent to practice dentistry with a creativeness that would greatly enhance the worth and standing of dentistry. Dr. Hungerford has aptly sald that “‘Science may quarry the marble, but it is the mechanic, the artisan, that chisels it unto the likeness of a god.’’

——s + WILL NOT HURT BOK. Boston Herald. ) Editor Bok’s new title of LL.

From the

: yield of cotton per acre, taking the cotton area as a whole, is less than that of almost any other product of the soil. This is due to the greater uni-

3 is an interesting fact that the fluctuation in the formity of the climate in the cotton belt as compared | to» that of other sections. With the exception of the Pacific Coast there is no portion of the United States where the variation in temperature is so small, par- ticularly in summer, as in the Southern States and on the Gulf Coast... The same climate renders that section of the country a most favored one for di- versified farming, and the cotton planter who is provident is not dependent upon the great staple alone. The average yield per acre is about 180 pounds, but improved methods of cultivation, more widely ap- plied, are causing a gradual increase in production, and the time is not far distant when the average will be 200 pounds and the standard of the best planters a &0-pound bale to the acre. The comparative cheapness of Southern land, mak- ing it easy for thrifty tenants to buy it, tends to de- crease the number of tenants, the size of the plan- tation and the number of nonresident owners. There are, however, a few plantations in Georgia, Ala- bama, Mississippi and Texas ranging from 20,000 to 30,000 acres in extent. excellent profits upon the capital invested. negroes operate a large proportion of the cotton plantations, only 19 per cent of the negro farmers own the land they work, while 58 per cent of the white farmers are Owners. As the negro farmer usu- ally has a large family, which is economical rather than expensive on a cotton plantation where boys and girls are useful, his opportunities for purchase fre excellent. Many negroes rent land, mortgage their crops before they are planted to supply stores and run through their profits before picking time, but not all of them are improvident. For a num- ber of years Deal Jackson, a negro who borrowed $1000 18 years ago to buy a little farm, and who now owns 2000 acres of the finest Georgia land, has mar- keted the first bale of Georgia cotton. Beginning on the Atlantic Coast before the Revo- lution, cotton has moved westwafd more rapidly than any other crop. With its center of production al- ways in advance of the center of population, it has covered the distance between the Carolinas and Ari- zona. It was the great pioneer crop of Arkansas, Texas and the new State of Oklahoma. The Ssuc- cess met with in growing it in the semi-arid uplands of the Southwest, where it is but little damaged by the boll weevil, promises a brilliant future for it in the newly invaded territory. Notwithstanding the efforts upon the part of En- gland to increase production in her dependencies, there is no probability that America, which has the largest area of cotton-producing soil in the world, will lose her Supremacy in the trade. No great in- dustry Was ever more completely paralyzed its future placed in greater jeopardy than was cotton growing in the United States during the Civil war. So great was the decrease in production, following the closing of the ports, that only one bale was grown in 1865 for every 15 grown in 182. Efforts were put forth by cotton growing countries at that time nor THE SOUTH’S GREAT COTTON FIELD HE extent of the cotton industry inthe Southern States is the subject of an interesting article in the Dallas News, from which the following facts are | taken: Henry W. Grady mingled poetry and truth when he said of the Amer- tcan cotton plant. “The sun that shines upon it is tempered by the prayers of all the people. The shower that falls whisperingly upon tts leaves is heard around the world, The frost that chills it is noted, and the trespass of the little worm upon its green leaf is more to England than the advance of the Russian army upon her Asian posts.” BY FREDERIC J. HASKIN. They are managed as system- | atically as any great busines senterprise and return | t Although

FE to produce the varieties which had given the United States a monopoly in the European markets, but the Southern States regained their primacy of position within thirteen years after the close of the war. Although it is a well-recognized principle In eco. nomics that to get the greatest profit, raw material should be converted into the finished product where it is produced, more than two-thirds of the American cotton crop is exported. Another peculiar feature of the industry is that until comparatively recent times there were few cotton mills in the South. The num- ber of mills in the cotton country was only 336 in 18990,

but since that time it has more than doubled. This. increase of manufacturing In the South In recent years, as well as increased production, has created a degree of prosperity unknown since ante-bellum days. The increase in demand is so rapid that the world will eventually use twice as much cottoneas is now being produced. As America will hold her place as the chief source of supply, it is not un- reasonable to predict for the great cotton belt a larger source of profit from agriculture than has ever been enjoyed by an equal area in the history of the world.

IDEALS FOR COLLEGE WOMEN. By Charles William Elliot, President of Harvard University, HE satisfactions which women most need to | earn, Which they most hope to earn, are the satisfactions that come from domestic liife— from the joys, hopes, anxieties, fears, and biess- ings of the home. Home-making is the intellectual life of a woman in her normal state, and many a woman who has never married secures the greater part of these most durable satisfactions. The race depends upon these durable satisfactions for wemen, and although we see in recent times a Very great development of other occupations for women—a for- tunate development, too—in almost all cases such things prove to be temporary, or, if pursued itn older life, have become only a path to the sources of higher satisfactions. With a man the profession In which he perse- veres from day to day contributes greatly to the durable satisfaction of his life. Among other things, it procures for him his home. It enables him to support “her.” It gratifies also his desires for labor. competition, and success. But the destiny of woman is in this respect different, in spite of the fact that a multitude of new occupations are open to women— fortunately open to women. The great source of durable satisfaction In life is the home which the woman creates, which she illurnines and blesses. It is the joy of children and grandchildren, the joy of that intimate and tender relation of ‘‘one to one,”- which is Emerson's defini- tion of happy marriage. These are for educated as for uneducated women the source of the chief durable satisfactions of life. They are the noblest of human satisfactions, the most essential to the continuance of the race, to its eontinue@ develop- ment of civilization, in love, in geod will, in free- dom, and in justice.

JOPLIN, Mo., June 15.—Regardless of his father’s wishes to the contrary, Clarence Burns, the 12-year-old son of Patrolman Burns, decided that he would become a mine operator during his school vacation. The boy enlisted the aid of a schoolmate of his own age. This week, according to Patrolman Burns, the boys struck what promises to be a bonanza in the way of a lead mine. Tho strike was made at 9 feet. In two

—— ’ hours the boys mined 150 pounds of lead, mostly in huge chunks. “Il was afraid to let my son play around a hole and use a pick and shovel,” declared Patrolman Burns, “but I knew that he was going to do something during his vacation, and I thought that he might as well be doing that as anything else. “The boys leased a lot on the Bank- ers land, east of Joplin. With one pick and one shovel, and a rudely improvised windless they succeeded in reaching a depth of 9 feet by today. At 9 feet they discovered what promises to be a great mine.”’ \ The boys secured their lease by con- tracting to pay royalties. When the lease was granted the Bankers people believed that they were but satisfying a temporary whim of school boys. To-

q SUNDAY MORNING—-ST. LOUIS POST-DISPATCH—JUNE 16, 1907 -- - a aX, & — a: Amelia Bingham Gives ‘‘The Modern Lady Godiva” Its Try-Out at Suburban Tonight—‘‘The Tele- phone Girl’ at Delmar, Ethel Fuller in ‘“‘Under Two Flags’’ at West End Heights, Police Relief Association Benefit at Forest Park Highlands, and Other Offerings. ee A CN E can prate as we please about people preferring sentiment as the asso- W ciate partner of meonlight, ani contend that they are especially de- lighted if dainty and delicate music accompany the mooning and the Bpooning, but the cold truth 1s that fun and laughter are what summer night amusement seekers most do revel in. The jingle and the joke—that’s all they ask. And, if money talks—especially when, like other blessings, it brightens as 4t takes its fliclit—this has been the teaching of the week just closed at Delmar and Suburban Gardens. ““‘The Wedding Day” at Delmar was a sweet little light | epera—but it lacked the broad humor for which the recreating multitudes yearn as the thermometer climbs upward, and so it didn’t draw anything like as well as would some rollicking musical comedy that bade one split one’s sides 1t %ts nonsense. “The Eternal City” at the Suburban was a big dramatic produc- . tlon—but there wasn’t a real hearty laugh anywhere in it, wherefore many per- sons denied themselves a glimpse of Rome, learning that they must needs con- template it through serious eyes. AS for West End Heights—well, Ethel Ful- ler’s following is an exception to the rule, inasmuch as it demands Ethel al- wavs in “the intense.” with great ragged streaks of her suffering on her soul's ‘tringe. There were some whe found fun in Salome’s dance of the seven veils, ‘true, but it was the result of a satiric quest. GOOD COMEDY MAKES THE DIFFERENCE. How different.it was when Delmar gave us “The French, Maid’ and when Amelia Bingham at Suburban so vastly tickled us as “‘A Contented Woman!” Those were real summer night offerings indeed! And the applause that. greeted them, and the increasing crowds that went te see them, pointed a moral and adorned a tale. The moral was that the playgeing public demands amusement in its lightest form in the good old sum- mer time, and the tale was a big count of dollars calculated to make man- agers sing for joy. A little nonsense now and then is relished by the wisest men, even of winter nights, while as for summer—well, isn’t it known as “the silly season?” A brief cogitation along these lines may not be unprofitable to interested parties. Keep yeur eyes peeled this week, for instance, and note with what enthusi- asm “The Telephone Girl” is welcomed back to Delmar. We insisted upon having three weeks of it last summer, you'll remember, and it’s the sheerest ab- gurdity from start to finish—but hew funny withal! Would we have demanded three weeks of the most tuneful light opera ever written—graceful and artistic fin fabric, yet lacking thoughtless laughter? Nay, my masters, not once in a theusand summers! But ‘“‘The Telephone Girl’’—hail, Hans Nix and all the rest of its ridiculous cast—we can hardly wait for the curtain to rise! “LADY GODIVA”—BUT CLOTHED, MARK YOU! Of course, however, we're deeply interested in “The Modern Lady Godiva,” which. Amelia Bingham offers us at Suburban tonight, because that will be a “try-out” of a play in which Miss Bingham hopes to make a big success dur- {ng the next regular season, and so becomes an event of uncemmon note. It ‘tells a very goed dramatic story, too—but, best of all, it’s a story wherein Cemedy runs neck and neck with pathos, and, even though the star, as a sore- Ay misjudged wife, is In piteous plight during a long spell of its appointed time, she’s made toe triumph at the last, and all ends happily, as comfertable plays should. The promise is for very interesting entertainment, and there’s been a busy week of rehearsing eut at Suburban. I was out there one morn- {ng myself, and the company were at it like beavers, Stage Manager J. Gor- den Edwards, Miss Bingham and even Lloyd Bingham himself, directing the werk by spells, with the play’s author, fI'red IF. Schrader, alse taking a hand. There's a great third act, wherein Lady Godiva is unveiled—— But no, my readers, it ish’t what yeu might think! / Deo not, I beg of vou, be misled as was that New York newspaper which pro- claimed Amelia Bingham as ‘“‘the clethesless heroine’ of this play. She isn’t anything of the sort—she’s far too 1 dest & woman, and she was deeply pained by the baseless proclamatien 5‘ mentiened—neither is “The Medern Lady Godiva’ more daring than “Salome,” as, also, was preclaimed. It’s ® sweet story of a good wife’s devotien and, as for the unveiling of Lady Go- diva, it’s merely a painting that’s unvciled, the painting for which Lady Mary Fulton had posed, the story tells us. Nor do we see her pose—I give yeu my word that Lady Mary wears the regulation amourt of feminine ap- parel at every mement of the play's pregress. So thcre you are—the cheek of dnnecence is inviolably protected against the blush of modesty. But what a fetching title is *“‘The Mcdern Lady Godiva,” all the same! A NEW DUSS AND GRACE VAN STUDDIFORD. Over at Forest Park Highlands we're to have Duss and his band and Grace Van Studdiford as the leading features of the Police Relief Association’s bene- fit week. Bandmaster Duss promises ur the best of music—and he promises it most charmingly through the heralding lips of the very delightful Mrs. C. Ss. Mann, his special press representative—coming to us now with an indorsement by Beston's musica! critics, which makes him seem a very much bigger fig- than when he visited us some three years ago. It’s to be neted now, toe hat Bandmaster Duss deesn’t care to be announced as “the millionaire band- _ master,” nor as the man whom a sovereign commonwealth of this great Union is suing fer the sum of $6,000,000, but solely on his musicianly merits. It’s @ very wholeseme sign, and I shall be glad to take him at his werd for music’s sake. As for Grace Van Studdiford, I have ne doubt that her many St. Louis friends will turn out in force te give her the heartiest of welcemes, and that she'll sing as sweetly as in Alpine days. 7 I bid you take notice that when Maude Fealy comes to the Suburban this summer you'll find yourself confronting a player who's to be boomed as 7 star next winter to beat the band. Manager John Cert, the Pacific Coast theatrical magnate, is her boomer, having chosen her as the star of “The Strenger Sex,” the American rights of which he has beught and which will be ene of his notable preductions for 1907-08. The play’s running now in London and Cert has sent Dore Davidson, who'll Stage it in this c study the Lendon production and prefit by, ‘he engaged a supporting company th ountry, expressly to if not improve upon, it.

Byrnes and John Sherman, and is said to b¢ pense in his determination to give Miss F happiest feature of it all is that the and magnetic little woman who ‘thus heartily backing her. BRONSON HOWARD EMERGES INTO VAUDEVILLE. At the same time, too, that Amelia Bingham is giving us a farewell perform- ance of Bronson Howard’s bright comedy, “One of Our Girls,”’ this week, a playlet adapted from that comedy by Bronson Howard himself will be on the boards at Keith & Proctor’s Fifth Avenue Theater in New York City. It’s en- titled “Two Girls and Twe Kisses,” and will be played by Emmett King, Kath- see Mulkins and Wadsworth Harris, and the fact that the dean of American oe Geena has turned te the making ef one-act sketches from his older and ed Piays is significant of the strong dramatic trend toward vaudeville. 8 ager week's promise at the gardens is well up to standard.

In all there to be six performances of “The Modern Lady Godiva,” the Other matinees and nights, four in rumber, to be divided between “Ma’m- Selle Marni,” with which Miss Bing- ham opened her engagement at the Suburban, and khronson Howard's “One of Our Girls.’ As “Ma'mselle Marni” by a St. Louisan, Henry Dumay, it will be seen that Miss Bing- ham has made a universally American choice for her farewell week in this city. are is The Suburban management’ has en- tirely built “The Modern Lady Godiva’”’ and costumed it throughout.

Notwithstanding the exclusive- ness of the event, there is to be ne advance in prices, the determination of the .management to. give first-class shows, even preniiere performances, at ene-half the figure prevailing at the regular houses, and with the use of as much local talent as pessible, being absolute. On Sunday and Monday night the house will, in addition to providing for the general public,’ be given over to newspeper men of the city and suburbs. Six New York papers have already sig- nified their intention te have repre- sentatives at the first performance. At Delmar Garden this week the management will put en the piece which was the great hit of last season, ‘‘The Telephone Girl." The productien be- gins with the matinee and evening per- formances This lively musical cemedy. proved popular at Delmar last season that it was repeated a few weeks after its tirst presentatien and played te «ven « greater bbusiness the secend time than its first preduc- tion. In the role of Hans Nix, the German telephene inspecter, Comedian Jehn E. Young is a centinuous scream from the time of his first appearance until the last curtain falls. Many ef Mr. Yeung’s admirers think that this part is the funniest he has ever played, and that is saying a great deal fer Yeung has been seen here in many parts and is always funny. The cast in “The Telephene Girl” will be stronger at Delmar this week than ever befere. Jesie Intropidi as Sa- mantha Fairfax, sheuld preve much funnier than any player ever seen in the role here befere. Alice B. Hills as Mrs. Puffaway has the ability to make more of the part than any persen whe has handled it heretefore in St. Leuis. There will be a new Snuffles in the person of William Seymeur, whe should handle this part most capably. In er- der to make reom fer Harry Burgess, the character of Obediah Fairfax has been introduced inte the piece and he can be depended upen te give a good acceunt of himself. Billa Reck as Clementine, Lula Wells as Toets and Alma Osberne as Resie are all new in these parts to Delmar audiences. There will alse be a new Estelle Cookeo in the person ef Blanche Deyo. Stella Tracey played this character in last seasen's preductiens. Several ef the old faverites at Delmar will be seen in their roles ef last season as follows: Caecilia Rhoda as Beauty Fairfax, Wil- Ham Herman West as Ebenezer Fair- today. hel at AMELIA, BINGHANL SHAT Marvel and William A. Dolan as Saun- ders. There will be a number of clever specialties introduced into the produc- tien this week. The annual Police Relief Association benefit begins at Forest Park Highlands today and ushers in a bill of unusual ex- cellence, beth in the vaudeville e¢nter- tainment and the musical attraction. The latter is Duss and his famous band. Duss must not be prenounced like ‘‘us” and ‘‘fuss,’’ but it is pronounced to rhyme with ‘puss,’ for the multimil- lionaire bandmaster is of German-Amer- ican descent and his name is German. His father was killed in the battle of Gettysburg. When quite a lad he was breught to the Economy community in Pennsylvania, but later he went to Ne- munity teacher. In less than four years hold of the affairs of the community it was $1,500,000 in debt, with only $40,000 available assets. He pulled the out of the hole and made it rich. Today he is the sele survivor of the community and a wealthy man. His money is devoted to maintaining one of the highest-class bands in the country. He is passionately fond of music, evi- dently inheriting the fondness from his German parents. He carries at least a dozen instrumental soloists, in fact ev- ery man in his band {fs an artist. Grace Van Studdiford is the big card in the pavilion, theugh she is net alone in rank as headliner. Jeseph Hart's Dancing Daisies are a prominent act. and se Tom Nawn, who, with Miss Charlotte Lapelle, presents ‘A Touch of Nature,” new here. Belle Hathaway is undoubtedly the finest animal trainer in the country, te whom even Hagenback takes off his hat when it comes to train- ing baboons and menkeys. FTester and Foster are a pair of entertaining mu- sical comedians, and Wilsgn Brothers rank with the best as German dialect comedians and warblers. The Polyscope has been fitted with appropriate views for the occasien. The pavilion will be in festive attire, with bunting and flags and other emblems suitable to the big event, ty is Another most attractive and well arranged vaudeville program will be presented at Mannion’s Park this week, beginning with matinee today. Reba and Inez Kauffman, two dainty little girls from musical comedy, will! present one of the brightest numbers on the bill. They are clever dancers and have excellent voices. Their pre- sentation is a novelty singing and dancing act in which some ten or _twelve changes of costume are shown. Count De Butz and Brother, the great- est comedy bicycle act on the variety stage, will be shown also as one of the feature acts. Besides betng funny these two men do many tricks of daring that require skill on the wheel. Mr. and Mrs. John T. Powers, two clever legitimate players, will present their comedy sketch of stage life called “The Players.'’ Lew Wells will wive his monologue and play half a dozen musical instruments, and Ed- ward Geer will appear in a novelty presentation. One ef the leaaing musical attractiens of the summer seems te be Creatore and his band, new giving evening cen- certs at Lemp’s Park on the Seuth Side. It is the same great band and leader that we have aeard se many times at the Odeon at dellar prices, while these summer cencerts are placed at % cents to be within the reach ef all.

PUNE QWARREL FOR HAT OF SUN Spring Weather Has Been So Greatly Divided All Have Lost. CONDITION ABNORMAL Meteorology Expert Says That Weather Bureau Uses Old Theories. QQ The anomalous weather conditions ob- taining thus far this summer present no mystery to those meteorologists who are guided in their study of atmo- spheric phenomena by facts, rather than by theories long a4g0 exploded. Exact knowledge is born of truth alone, and, according to Dr. Alexander Ham- flton Laidlaw of New York City, as quoted in the Evening Post of that city, the savants of the national Weather Bu- reau, having based their system of The Deaf - May Hear, And Know It Before Purchasing. That the vast majority of Hearing Devices are inefficient or entirely use- less, is undoubtedly the fact. It 1s therefore necessary that an instrument which really does make the deaf hear distinctly should prove itself beyond question to the prospective purchaser before a purchase is concluded. The General Acoustic Co. are glad to demonstrate to all deaf people that the Acousticon will make them hear in- stantly; are anxious to prove without uestion that unless the auditory nerve is entirely destroyed you cannot help hearing distinctly; and if you do not hear with it after a trial they will say to you: “We do not want you to pur- chage, for a dissatisfied purchaser can do us more harm than ten times the profit on the instrument.” If you cannot call at our office and test it personally, write us and we will inform you how you may test it before purchasing.

He was well acquainted with such famous meteorologists as Espy, l’rof. Davidson, and Chapman. Under the instructions of Chapman in par- ticular, the physician based his re- searches on astronomy, and he learned that conditions on earth were deter- mined by the relations of the planets to the sun. Question of Light. Not by the planetary force of gravity, the student learned, were meteorological facts explained, but by the light which the planet caused the sun to throw upon the earth. The various lights are all polarized (magnetic), and exert their influence on the earth in accordance with their color. Saturn, for instance, was at the ver- nal equinox April 16, and as it is mov- ‘ng away from the earth at the rate of only a degree a month, its influence on the earth is still potent. In. ob- serving this planet at sunrise and sun- set, yellow and orange sunrises and sunsets will be noticed, and red suns and meons and yellow-tipped clouds—all this, provided Saturn be alone in its in- fluence, which it is not at the present time. These colors, then, all suggest without error what the ensuing days are going to be. Yellow or green or red effects are the prophets of warm and fair weather. Violet and indigo are for cool, and three times out of four they augur wet and cloudy weather. These colors, as has been said, all represent the planetary influence on the sun’s light. All Planets Lose At the present time six planets, of which the earth is one, all moving around the sun at nearly the same an- gle, are pulling the heat from a. nar- row portion of the solar disk. They are all, so to speak, warring with one an- other—the usual polarization of light has gone all awry. AS a result, neither the earth nor any one of the planets is getting the weath- er that it should have. By fall the plan- ets will have separated, and seasonable weather will return. of planets, says Dr. Laidlaw, is most unusual, and never in the sixty-odd years of his meteorological observations has he seen such weather as we have had in the past months.

From his home he has facilities for ob- serving storm and cloud movements, and prominently displayed in his rooms are the daily reports of Weather Bureau, together with works on me- teorology, some by well-known author- the ities, others by men whose works prob- | ably died before they did. When seen at his home, the physician was quite willing to criticise their words in the light of his knowledge and experience. “I hold no brief against the Weather Bureau,”’ he said. ‘The public has no idea of the remarkable work it accom- plishes. A book on meteorology been issued by the bureau. I bought it for $10. It is worth $100. But. neverthe- less, forecasting is the weak point of these men. There is no school for the training of forecasters, and they act upon the ideas of James Pollard Espy, whose book on storms was published in 1841. Barometric Theory in Error. “The idea upon which the forecasters g£0 is that the wind always blows from an area of high barometric pressure to one of low barometric pressure. This Was Espy’s theory; it is still «cepted by many meteorologists. sut it many exceptions. “In Wednesday’s storm, for instance, there were three layers of clouds, the highest of which moved from Southwest to Northeast, after passing the area of low barometer. The middle layer passed from ‘a little East of South teward low barometer, and the lowest layer also moved towards low barometer. But at the end of the storm, the clouds of this neighborhood moved frem a barometer of 29.7 towards the high barometer of the East, which was about 30.1. Thus, in the same storm we had both clouds and winds, some going to low barom- eter, and some going to high. Espy’s theory does not account for these differ. ences. has has Real Guide From Bible, “Prof. Maury, in his physical geogra- phy of the sea, published in 1855, after a broad discussion of trade winds and the like, ¢ayrie to the conclusion that mag- netism and electricity were among the forces concerned in the circulation of atmosphere. This was a trend towards the light theory, which I believe to be the true story, as first promulgated by Dr. L. L. Chapman. The light theory was put into his mind by Job 388, 24, where we read: “‘*By what way is the light parted which scattereth the East wind upon the earth?’ “*Thus,’ said Dr. Chapman, ‘I was compelled to go back 4000 vears and to the oldest boek tm the Bible to get prop- erly started on meteorology.’ '“Dr. Chapman translated this verse as follews, or at least said that it was the way he would translate it if asked to do B80: ‘At what angle is the light of the sun, moon, and stars refracted that i ee

As visitors are always welceme in the country and never ¢x- pected to send advance notifications of their arrival, they naturally think that town folk are as informed and conse- quently entirely neglect to announce their coming. In shert, they just walk in. “Now; imagine the day te be a busy ironing Tuesday, with the dining reom table full of freshly laundered’ table- cleths and napkins that you have done yeurself, to save the lafindress. With the kitchen full of pressing boards and the gas range covered with flat irens.

Seientific Part. ‘ “Now cories the really scientific part of your housekeeping, this getting to- gether a luncheon that shall not be éither skimpy, nor contain such viands as your country guests have on their own table every week. You would, ef course, like to offer them a bit of po- tato salad, a cup of cocoa or glass of ginger ale and some strawberry jam, left over from that which you put up the day before. “But you cannot afford to do so. A luncheon of this.kind, though amply sufficient for you alone and for them tee, did they choose to think so. would astonish their provincial minds as the most rigid economy, for country people gauge your means by the way you dress. They entirely forget, you see, that when they come’ to take pot fuck, they must not feel disgruntled ‘« line pot is empty. But it is a fact that they prefer tea to cocoa, and jam is covering their home cupboard shelves in rows and tripple rows. “They want new things to eat and they are offended if they don’t get them. Send Out for Food. “Therefore send to the grocery or use the telephone and buy a can of chicken gumbo soup, which is the richest of any tinned soups and is one with which they are not familiar. This can be quickly heated and served in cups with the ad- dition of hot water and a little flour thickening. If you have any bits of cold meat in the house, chop them fine and make a souffle, with a cup of hot milk, the yolk and white, well beaten, of cne or two eggs, parsley, butter, and seasoning, a little onion juice and a cup of breadcrumbs. Whisk this well together and turn into a buttered dish to puff up and bake in a hot oven for only a few minutes. This dish is delicious. if made with canned salmon, and always acceptable to the country guest. Some potato chips from the grocery heated to make them crisp, will. go nicely. “Now comes your salad, which may be the potato if you have it, but trim your dish with a few nasturtium leaves and blossoms, if they are growing in the garden, and shave a few tlin slices frem a sweet green pepper over the top of the dish. Remember that the serv- ing of your food means much to the guests who are unaccustomed to little garnishes that you have as a matter of course. Some cheesed crackers with the salad is acceptable. Lemonade for Dessert. “Tf yeu have not fruit nor cake to serve for the last course, a good tall vitcher of ice-cold lemonade, to which the juice of several oranges er a Cup- ful ef claret is added, will end the meal nicely. “Stuffed dates are always welcome, too, especially if they are rolled in pow- dered sugar. Salted pecans make a pleasant addition, and a real streke of senius can be made with some cheese balis, from a cake of soft Neuchatel cheese, mixed with a few chopped pe- cans er almends, a trifle of olive oil added and some paprika. your butter paddles and recll into small balls. ‘Lead the way after luncheon into the cool librar:t or living room, and see that your guests have some late maga- gines, especially fashion ones, to turn ever, while you finish that table-linen ironing.

AFTER 14 YEARS SERVICE McGRAW TO QUIT BASEBALL y= =

rw Declares That He Means Just What He Says and That He Is Not Fishing for Bigger Money But Is Tired of Traveling.

New York National League Base- ball Club, which was in St. Louis last week, will give up baseball at the end of this season. This means that he will neither play ball nor manage a ball club after the last game of 1907 is ended. The manager of the Giants, one of the greatest generals that the national game has ever seen, is not giving out this news broadcast, yet he makes no denial of its truth, and he admits that there are some features of profession- al baseball life that he does not like. Statements similar to this are made periodically by many ball players and managers of note at times when they are dickering for bigger salaries. Some _make it a point to hold out for a short time each spring with more or less success as to the salary proposition. Mr. McGraw, however, has no ax of this kind to grind, since his salary is mutually agreeable to him and Pres!- dent John T. Brush of the New York Club, and Manager McGraw has come to his determination with the season of 1907 well under way. The fact is, McGraw and Brush have a high ad- miration for each other, and a money affair is not likely to separate them. Is Now Independent. John J. MeGraw does not have to play baseball any longer. He has been in the game fourteen years; has made good money during most of this time, and now he has commercial and property interests which make him independent of salary. He asserts that what he most hates in the baseball life is traveling. To a close friend he said recently: “I detest more than I can express in words this moving from place to place throughout the playing season. I have been traveling from one part of this country to another so much, to say nothing of my trips to foreign countries, that the very sight of a railroad train appalls me. “TIT want to stay at home in New York. In spite of my sporting proclivities my tastes are domestic and I want to quench forever the feeltng that I am a slave to the Pullman sleeper and the tender mercies of the hotel in the next city.”’ When asked if his decision to give up baseball was irrevocable, he said: “Practically it is. Of course I might be invited to sign a contract for a short period of time—say two seasons or some- thing like that—for such an advanta- geous sum that I would be false to my own interests and to the interests of my family if I threw down the proposition. “Now, understand me. -I am not fish- ing for such a contract. I do not want it. I still love the national game as such, but I am tired of the traveling game and, as soon as I can, I am going to stop moving around except to go where I shall go from personal choice.” Not a Salary Bluffer. It will be recalled by those who know anything of McGraw’s career that he has in the past made no public bluffs for salary. For some years, while in the employ of Edward Hanlon, on the Balti- more team, neither Robinson nor Me- Graw signed contracts. The contracts were formally presented year after year to, both men and each ignored the pa- pers. Both players, however, were found ready to go South for practice with their team when the time came, and both got such satisfactory salaries that they had no quibbles with their club management when the season was under Way. Few, if any, of their fellow players ‘knew that they had not signed con- tracts and few other managers knew that they were held only tacitly. The manager of the New York Giants has been a striking figure in the base- ball world during most of the 14 years he has spent in the game. The secret of his success has been brains, the com-. modity which tells in most walks of life. When, as in the case of Mc- Graw, brains are so co-ordinate with a tireless determinatigOn to succeed in ev- ery undertaking—a mania for winning, it might be called—the success and prominence he has won are easily under- stood. Always a Bread Winner. Jehn J. McGraw was born in Trux- ton, N. Y., and started out early in life te make his own living. He was de- voted to baseball and in his early youth he was engaged to go to various towns to fill up gaps in various sem!-profes- sional clubs. Then he was regularly signed by the Bay City (Mich.) team. In those old days the Baltimore Base- ball Club had varying fortunes, mostly bad, and Manager WilHam Barnie got McGraw, with other young timber, for his club. McGraw played generally on the bench. He was only 19 years old at the Ume and Barnie, when he did trust Mac on the fleld, sent him to short- eton This was in 1892, fn 189 Mr. Edward Hanlon became manager of the Baltimore Baseball Club. He spent that season in studying his elub and his players, and he, with un- exampled baseball judgment, not only found that young McGraw could play ball, but had lots of brains and had ‘studied the finer points of the game, even when kept on the bench. Then there developed the Big Four: McGraw, Jennings, Kelley and Keeler. It should have been a big five, for Catcher Wilbert Robinson was a tower of strength and tm his position was the equal of the others in theirs, though it was the Big Four, which by good hitting, trick hit- ‘ting, extraordinary base running and an 3S ‘Utter contempt for personal averages, 1ade and helped in the runs which won 4 ci po we timegsrmed ht, elgg ns OHN J. M’GRAW, manager of the’ ' there,

n, two years before the expiration the big league, the Baltimere club own- ers, then including Hanlon and Vonder- horst, amalgamated with the Brooklyn club. This was McGraw's opportunity to show managerial ability. He and Rob- inson, having business interests in Bal- timore as well as homes and families asked to be left in the Oriole City. They were left. John McGraw was appointed manager of the team of 1899, which the people derisively called ‘“‘The Leftovers.” Mc- Graw hustled for players, especie ‘ly pitchers, and looked over the list of re- serves claimed by Hanlon. One of these pitchers was Joe McGinnity. McGraw’s team and Hanlon’s Brooklyns trained, respectively, in Savannah and Augusta, Ga. In Augusta they came together and McGraw downea Hanlon in a ma- jority of the games played, and Foxy Ned was wonder-stricken. That year McGraw struck other persons with won- der, for his team took fourth place, though the wise prophets had in ad- vance accorded to it nothing better than a low station in the second division, 12 clubs then forming the league. His joining the American League aft- er the reduction of the National from twelve to eight clubs, his unfortunate quarrels with Ban Johnson, president of the American, and his outwitting of Johnson by becoming manager of the New York Nationals are matters of comparatively recent history, as are his winning two pennants for New York and the registering of world’s record baseball attendances. It is true that giving up the Balti- more franchise in the American League gave Johnson a chance te put New York or any other city into the Amer- ican League, but McGraw took the ground that Johnson was opposing him unduly and he wanted to show that the American League was so unneces- sary to his welfare that he*could get one of the best places in the National, which he did. Personality and Judgment. McGraw’s strong personality and his judgment of plays and players are his strong suits. A writer in the New York Sun has this to say: “Pitcher Joe McGinnity was a Han- lon discovery—at any event was brought from the backwoods into the big arena by him. Hanlon sent the Iron Man to Baltimore, while he (Hanlon) man- aged the Brooklyns, and it was with McGraw as overseer that McGinnity’ made good. McGraw did more to de- velop him than anybody else. Frank Kitson, the pitcher, was a Hanlon product. “It has been said of McGraw that he does not develop new material, but the facts are at variance with that asser- tion. He brought out Bresnahan, for one, to say nothing of McGinnity—and you don’t unearth a Bresnahan every day. Moreever, with McGraw as guide, philosopher and friend, Arthur Devlin has come to be a topnotch third base- man. Burnham of Newark is the dis- coverer of Devlin, so far as his -pro- fessional career is concerned, for he sold Devlin te McGraw; but he became the finished performer that he is under McGraw. Nor did McGraw lose any time in finding out for himseif that Dev- lin would fill the bill. Devlin is one of the aNtional League’s best base run- ners, and nearly all that he knows about that accomplishment he learned with McGraw as his tutor. “George Browne, cast loose by Phila- delphia, was taken up by McGraw, and his fielding improved 100 per cent after the change of berths. He is a fine thrower, which McGraw was not slow ty find out; a fair batter and a swift man on the bases. Not the least of McGraw’s feats was to discover that there was the making of a crack outfielder in Si Seymour. Seymour was so erratic as a pitcher that he came near falling into oblivion as a ball player. McGraw hunt- ed him up, took him to Baltimore, and made an outfield«r of him. His value is too well knowr. to dwell upon. Ames, Wiltse and Ferguson are pitchers whom McGraw has brought out, and doubtless Mathewson has learned a few things from his manager.” McGraw is essentially a Baltimorean. He, like many other ball players who came here, found that a ball player who was a reputable man in private life found a welcome in the home circles of this hospitable city. He has always a warm spot ‘in his heart for old Oriole- town, has property interests here, and his wife was a Baltimore girl. She was, before her marriage, Miss Blanche Sin- dall, daughter of Mr. James W. Sindall, the buildér. In New York she bears out Baltimore’s reputation for the beauty and goodness of the Maryland-bred woman.

CORNELL BEST THE SEASON Red Baseball Team Has Good Claims on the College Championship.

If there ever was a college baseball season which emphasized the need of an intercollegiate association to determine the championship this is the year. Under the present conditions it is only by chance that the title is awarded without a dispute. Until this year it has so happened that the honor went to Yale, Princeton, or Harvard, three universities which play with each other a series of two games, and three, if necessary, to break the tile. But this season two outsiders are dis- puting Princeton’s right to the cham- pionship laurels. They are Cornell and Williams. Although Williams came near cleaning up everything on her trip to the Middle West, the schedule of the Mas- sachusetts boys does not include as many important games as does that of Cornell. At the present rate of winning vic- tories, it is likely that Princeton and Cornell will be compelled to divide the honors. For some reason, the Princeton management this year refused to sched- ule the usual two games with Cor- nell. As ill luck would have it, the two teams which ought to fight it out for the premier honors will not meet at all and any title must be awarded ac- cording to comparative scores, or be equally divided. Both of these methods are extremely unsatisfactory. Movements have been started at va- rious times to organize an intercolle- giate baseball association and to ar- range a regular intercollegiate schedule to award the title, as is done in the =minor_ sports, such as basket ball, cricket and asso- ciation football. The movement has failed to date solely through the hos- tility of Yale, Harvard and Princeton, who seem anxious to maintain their ex- Tommy Tracey, the great Australian welterweight, who has made his home in Portiand since his retirement from the prize ring, may leave for Califor- nia next week to train Bill Squires for his fight with Tommy Burns July 4.

TOO MANY POLICIES

Land Leaguers, Sinn Feins and Others Working at Cross Purposes.

LONDON, June 15.—John Redmond, the leader of the Irish Parliamentary party, unconsciously, perhaps, summar- izes the new pesition of the revolution- ary Irish to compel a weak-kneed Brit- ish ministry to grant them home rule in its fullest sense in this paragraph: “Ireland is strong enough, if she chooses to compel a settlement of this great question. If Ireland is really unit- . ed, government on any ether basis will be impossible.’’ But Ireland is not united except In de- ies nouncing the recently offered ‘“‘home rule’’ bill. In the sense that the demanded “gov- ernment” has been understood in Eng- ‘land, it has long been impossible in Ire- land.

Who Wins $1000 Prize in Dramatiza- tion Contest, Learns an Interesting Lesson in the Wisdom of - Being Patient —A Ranch Belle Rides 700 Miles, Horse- back, to Wed Man She Loves. BUTLER. Mo., June 15.—It was a fine lesson in the wisdom of being patient that Miss Flavia Rosser of this piace learned when, growing anxius about the fate of a dramatization of “Black Beauty,” she had submitted in a contest for the George T. Angell prize of $100 before the Humane Educatien Society of Boston, she wrote to the commit- tee demanding the immediate return of her manuscript. | “Wait a few days till the judges read it,”” was the reply. Much against her will she did this and goon, to her great surprise, received notification that she had been awarded $1000 in cash for her dramatization, which was the best among several hun- dred that were submitted. “TY will not be in such a great hurry next time,” she says. * Miss Rosser is the daughter of W. F. Rosser. She was born and reared here and is a graduate of Butler High School. She has considerable literary talent and has been a successful contributor of verse and fiction to several magazines. One of her best efforts is “A Drama of e Doodlebugs,”’ that was published by Eastern magazine. CUPID THWARTS PARENTS BY A 700-MILE HORSEBACK RIDE Plucky Ranch Girl Wanted to Prevent Her Interception by Telegraph. LEWISTON, Mont., June 15.—Miss Frannie Morris, who spent three weeks in the saddle and rode 700 miles to wed Robert McFarland, who had been fore- man of her father’s ranch, fs returning to Frannie accompanied by her hus- band. Though her parents had objected to the wedding the bride is confident of parental forgiveness. Miss Morris loved McFarland, who came to her father’s ranch fresh from service in the army and several years in the Philippines. Although she wished to wed him, her parents objected and sent McFarland away. He returned to his home in Philadel- phia, but maintained a correspondence with the girl. Making the final arrangements recent- ly, the girl left home one morning to leok after some cattle. Before night she was more than 70 miles from the ranch. She kept this up day after day until she had traversed more than 700 miles, and had been in the saddle three weeks. She is married to the man of her choice, however, and has no com- Saint against the hardships of the jour- ney. The return trip is not being made over the mountain trail taken by Miss Morris, as the bridal couple have not now the same reasons for shunning tel- egraph lines that Miss Morris had when she was expecting her father to be at- tempting te intercept aay YOUNG BOY ELOPES WITH PRETTY SCHOOL TEACHER When School Closes, They Desert Their Books for Race to the Altar.

TULSA, I. T., June 15.—Deeming a legislative tax or municipal mandates against nonmatrimonially inclined men as impracticable, Tulsa’s unmarried women have hit upon a scheme for bringing the men te their knees in sup- pliance for their hearts and hands that bids fair to be a great success. These young women have organized a society known as the Tulsa Bachelor Girls’ Cupid Club and membership is limited t# wnmarried women over 18 and under 4, With widows barred. The “never-have-been-married’’ claim they cannot successfully cope with wid- ows in the game for husbands with their superior kncwledge and experi- ence. The club prescribes a membership fee of $10, with monthly dues of $1 per member. This money goes into a com- mon fund and is apportioned pro rata among the members as rapidly as they marry, with the understanding it be applied to the furnishing of the herne. The prospect of assistance in this man- ner in “going to housekeeping,” it is believed, will nerve the men te speak the word they have long had at the tip -oef the tongue, but which they have-Te- frained from uttering for fear they could not make good financially. The club numbers # members and ad- ditions are being made every week. KANSAS DOCTOR HAS AIDED STORK NEARLY 5000 TIMES Walker Makes Special Rate for Twins and Triplets, but Few Benefit by It. GALENA, Kan., June 15.—Dr. W. A, Walker, who has just completed his twenty-eighth year in the practice of medicine in this city, has made a record as alid-de-camp to the stork, which is said tc be unequaled In the West. Since locating in Galena, the dector’s fees for services in this line have netted him more than $20,000. Figuring at the regular fee of $10 the 2008 births would have netted him $20,080, but in arriving at the total, the number of twins—for which a corresponding reduction in price is made—must be taken into considera- tion. , For twins the established fee is $15, but out of the total number of cases in which he officiated, Dr. Walker states, only 2% of his patients toek advantage of this reduction. As a further inducement, and in order to keep the lead which he early ac- quired in this line of practice, the doc- tor estabiished a price or $20 for triplets, but his experience has taught him that few are loeking for this sort of bar- gain. Only in one instance has a fee been received by him for officiating on guch an anti-race-suicide eccaaion. Although in his seventy-fifth year, he continues te answer night calls and has never given the matter of retiring any serious consideration. Although he has no recor? the number of births attended oy — rrp. self previous to coming to Galena, he of estimates it to be almost equal to his KENTUCKY THEOLOGIAN READY TO SWEAR BELIEF IN JONAH-WHALE STORY McGarvey Says Its Repudia- tion Is Really a Repudiation of Jesus. LEXINGTON, Ky., June 15.—Rev. J. McGarvey, president of the Bible College of Kentucky University and who is to be a witness in the peculiar Hoff- man law suit to be tried in St. Louis in September invelving the question of the validity of the Bible story ef Jonah and the whale, says that the whale cer- tainly swallewed Jonah as described in the scriptures and that to question the veracity of this stery would be to ques- tion the story of Jesus. He says: “If the allegations made vy Dr. Hoff- man are true, 1 think he would be justi- fied in not paying te the Missouri Bible College the note of $5000. The Bible— every word ef it—is true, and no Chris- tian minister should preach any ether kind of doctrine. In Mathew 12, 48, Jesus said: ‘As Jonah was in the bowels of the whale three days and nights, so will be the son of man in the bowels of the earth three days and nights.’ If Jonah is repudiated, then Jesus Christ is re- Dr. 79 6 ‘pudiated.

There was nething dofng on the first passage, but when Rhodes turned his team and again began d ‘iv'ng by “very slowly,”” Mr. Loft appeared and Iinter- rogated him concerning his curious Ccon- duct.

WEST PLAINS, Mo., June 15.—The building of the White River Branch of Missouri Pacific Northern the Railroad through Arkansas from Batesville to Mo., has established a new and perilous industry in Ozark County, the remotest and most sparsely settled region of the State. The high price of timber and the scarcity of white oak has created a big demand for railroad ties, especially on the White River Railroad. Along Bry- Fork in Ozark majestic oaks Carthage, ant Creek and North County thousands of stand in the forests. ‘Today tie-chop- pers are busy converting them into railroad timbers and hauling the ties to the river bank. Here the great peril begins. The dan- ger is in the rapids and frequent high waterc of North Fork, down which stream these ties are floated. Sometimes, the rafts buckle and break while being tossed about by the rapids, and then there is a‘busy time for the raftsmen to save tlemselves and to get the sec- tions together again. The largest raft of ties ever brought down North Fork was cut loose at Syca- more a few days ago and floated down the turbulent mountain stream to De- vere, Ark., on the White River Rail- road, a distance of 1% miles. The raft was in two sections, one 400 feet long and the other %50 feet. 3oth contained S00 ties, and five men took them down the stream in 10 days. Tie rafting is always a dangerous vo- cation. Young men who have spent all their lives along the river are chosen tor the work, because they can with- stand the hardships and exposure and are able to take care of themselves when the raft breaks and they are thrown in the swift river. Many cf these daring men look upon these trips chiefly as excursions to the railroad, full of pleasure and recrea- tion. While unexperienced men shudder at the trip down the turbulent stream, the raftsman calls it fun, and his only regret is that when the journey is ended 6nd he gets his pay from the contractor at Devere, he must wark back to his hurtble home tn the Ozark mountains LAWYERS FLEE COURT TO Disappear Rapidly When Kentucky + Calls for Volunteers to De- Col, ; fend a Prisoner.

CHANUTE, Kan., June 15.—Several Chanute girls are having the time of ‘heir lives writing young men whose earaes they received from a Kansas City matrimonial bureau. The correspondence was a great se- cret at first, but, like most secrets, it leaked out. Now the girls are explain- ing it is all “just in fun,” and that they regard none of the correspondence seriously. An equal number of Cha- nute young men, though they have great confidence in the girls, are en- deavoring to find some way to stop what they fear may become real love- making. The girls recently received circulars from the matrimonial agency, which offered to send the names of eligib'e young men for various sums ranging from 10 cents to $10. Some of the let- ters went into the fire, while other girls, seeing an opportunity fer what they say is “innocent amusement,” send their dimes and received the lists.

REDMOND MacManus Writes That Parliamentary Party Has Received Backset by the Support Given the Measure During the Making. By SEUMAS MacMANTS., HE Irish ‘“‘Home Rule’’ bill (so-hailed) is still-born. Mr. Redmond was T compelled to move its rejecticn, even at the convention of his own po- t litical party. He strove hard, by indirect means, to ‘get Ireland to ac- cept this farcical ‘‘Home Rule’’—but the force of public opinion, even among his own following, was too strong. Had not the bishops spoken out, however, it is consented that the bill would have been forced upon the United Irish leaguers by their Parliamentary representatives, who are making wild efforts Ao show any fruit of parllamentary politics during recent years. Put Cardinal Logue and some of the Irish bishops came into print con- demning the bill as so much damnation to Ireland. Then, quickly, Mr. Red- ;0nd went before the United Irish League convention and condemned it! It is admitted by the Parliamentary party that this flasco 1s the worst blow they have received during recent years. But they are already promis- ing us home rule next year, if we only pay up, and keep them in West- minster. In Dan O’Connell’s day repeal of the union was always coming next year. In Mr. Redmond’s day home rule is, as sure as the sun shines in the heavens, coming next year, a!'wa YS. Mr. Phelps’ Stokes told, at af! New York dinner, a typical story of the kind-hearted Ameri- can in darkest Ireland. Maybe, you, reader, did not see it. A friend of Stokes was last year motoring through a remote region of Ireland. One day he came upon a poor old woman seated with all her humble furniture about her in the middle of the road before her lit- tle cabin. He was profoundly moved. Here, before his very eyes, an eviction a real Irish eviction, was taking place. He got out of his car and gave the old woman a $25 note. ‘Tell me,” he said, ed to Henry O’Hagan’s premises, which have only lately been renovated at con- siderable expense. The Orangemen then directed their attention to the house, and smashed the windows. The Nationalist party re-formed, and were again attacked tn a most savage manner by the Orangemen. The row continued for a considerable time, but the Nationalists at length gained the mastery over their opponents, and suc- ,ceeded in driving them into the Orange ! Hall. Several persons were badly in- jured. “whet ie thé trou- The shebeen (or unlicensed house sell- ling liquor) is not merely an Irish in: stitution, as the world thought.

In an apparently un- tenanted house in the northern district of Glasgow the police found nearly two hundred naggin bottles, 100 gill bottles and a six-gallon earthenware jar, all full of whisky. These were seized and brought to the police office. Inside the raided prem- ises were also found 463 naggin and 79 gill whisky bottles, besides five six- gallon empty whisky jars and four sacks of corks. Many of the bottles bear labels with the names and ad- dresses of public houses all over the city. This was verra guid indeed, for Sandy MacGregor—verra guid indeed. SCARCITY OF ICE CREAM MAKES MANY VERY SICK Delicacy Scraped From Sides of Freezer Poisons Guests Served Late. CHANUTE, Kan., June 15.—Because it was necessary to scrape the ice cream from the sides of a freezer in order to serve all the guests, more than half of those who attended a large party given as a surprise to Mrs. William Truitt, were made sick. The guests who were served first were given cream frem the center of the freezer, while those served last were served with cream which came in centact with the sides of the can and which is believed to have become poisoned. Several of the victims were made seriously sick, but it is believed all will recover.

CHICAGO, June 15.—From a lumber- jack in the Wisconsin woods to one of the leading character actors of the Nor- Weglan stage is the remarkable career of Rasmus Rasmussen,, who now, after “) years of success. is revisiting the United States on a mission of gratitude. Rasmussen has an American woman to thank for getting a start in his career as an actor and singer of folk songs. The woman is Mrs. N. H. Withee of La Crosse, Wis., widow of one of the largest timber landowners in the Badger State. Recognizing Rasmussen’s genius at the time he was a lumberjack, Mrs. Withee paid for his musical and dra- matic education. Many times the actor has offered to pay back with interest the sum Mrs. Withee advanced for him, but she has refused to accept. Two weeks ago Rasmussen unexpect- edly arrived in La Crosse and called on his benefactress, to whom he expressed his heartfelt gratitude for all she had done for him. She will visit this sum- mer at his villa in Bergen. He came to Chicago to appear in a three-act play entitled "The Stork,’”’ in order that his countrymen here might have an opportunity to judge of his ability. The play was given at Bjorn- son’s Hall, 876 Nerth Artesian avenue. Rasmussen first came to the United | { States in 1882. Born in the province of Romsdal, one of the most picturesque parts of Norway, he had the poetry and music of his native valley in his soul and a strong desire to go on the stage. In La Crosse it was always Rasmus- sen who took the lead among his fellow Norwegians in arranging amateur the- atrical performances, music fests and other entertainments. It was at one of these little entertain- ments that Mrs. Withee was attracted to the young Norwegian by his won- derful singing of the folk songs of his native land. He was invited to Mrs. Withee’s home to sing. In a few days he was on his way to Norway to begin his studies. In 1887 he made his debut on the stage of the National Theater at Bergen. Since then his career has been a chain of artistic triumphs. JUDGE GIVES SENTENCE WITH A VEIN OF HUMOR} Sends Negro Prisoner to Nation’s Capital “Where All Our Congressmen Go.” TULSA, IL T., June 15.—There is a vein of humor in Judge William R. Lawrence which bubbles forth often un- expectedly. An illustration of this char- acteristic of the distinguished jurist was given in the Federal Court here during the consideration of the criminal docket. Jim Turner, a negro boy, had pleaded guilty to the charge of larceny and thrown himself on the mercy of the Court. “Jim,” said the Judge, “I am going to send you to the capital of our nation, where all the senators and representa- tives go, and I hope it will make a bet- ter man of you. Your sentence is four years in the Boys’ Industrial School at Washington, D. C. Learn a trade, Jim, and when you get out-of prison you can enter upon a life of usefulness.”’ TENNESSEE MINERS SEE GOOD IN IDAHO TRIALS They Believe Radical Members Will Be Relegated to the Background.

His Grace, the Archbishop of Dublin, while presiding at a meeting in St. Kevin’s Church, Harrington street, te inaugurate a well-deserved tribute to the memory of the late parish priest, the Very Rev. Canon Connolly, the memor- ial to take the form of a much-needed addition to the Parochial Schools, drew white- — Jp the attention of the citizens to the neg- lect of many parents in Dublin to send their children to school and the laxity of the School Attendance Inspector in enforcing the conditions of the Com- pulsory Attendance act. The advantages which parents possess for obtaining free education for their children at the present time as com- pared with their liability to pay heavy fees for their instruction in former days will be found well illustrated by a case heard before the Lord Mayor of Dublin in his court 73 years ago. The case was reported in the issue of the Dublin Weekly Satirist of Oct. 31, 1834. The report which will be found instruct- ive is printed as follows: The Schoolmaster Abroad.

He listened for two hours and ordered the board to investigate. here is no doubt that Dr. Woodson underestimated the snrewdness and te- nacity of Miss Boyle. He soon learned it. While the board was in session she was going through the wards of the hospital, picking up a bit of new gos- sip here and there, to strengthen what

She seemed like a veritable Nemesis, with her mouth set in grim determina- tion as she hurried around. When asked if she felt no pity for the wife and daughter of Dr. Woodson she answered: “Yes, I know what Bor are suffer-

GR SUNDAY MORNING—QT. aa ie LOUIS POST-DISPATCH—JUNE 16, 1907 my >>> WHAT IT MEANS TO BE A PRIZE BEAUTY, GLEANED FROM THE — | EXPERIENCES OF VICTORS IN THE POST-DISPATCH CONTEST cena ane ee >.» tee peeeeeneee A ape ent = cee aiaee peesaet ; ne Cf eee Along With the Congratulations of Friends HITHERTO UNPUBLISHED PORTRAITS OF THE WINNERS OF FIRST THREE PRIZES. Come “Mash Notes,” Offers of Mar- riage, Gifts From Strangers and Begging Letters, While Critical Per- sons the Winners Never Saw Call to Make a Personal Inspection and, Often Within Earshot of the Subject, Express Their Opinion of the Verdict Whether It Is Favorable or Not. EING a prize beauty is hke winning the honor places in the graduating class of a large school where -contest is close. Too, it’s like being the chosen one in a game in which there llow the Recipients of Communica= tions, Queer and Otherwise, Met One Afternoon for a “Letter Fest" a3 When They Read — the Mail ThatHad Deluged Them. but the complaint remains. One of therm voiced herself thus and the words she said reached the person criticized, “She beautiful! Why I've known her for - years and she never was- pretty.” In compensation for this is the sat- isfaction that comes from being ches- en. Not one of the women named ag “the most beautiful” by the judges hag ever been made foolish by flattery. One of them said; “I have often been told that I was pretty. I usually replied, ‘It is kind of you to speak so,’ but I did not believe what was said. My reason was that [ had heard the persons complimenting me make similar remarks to girls whom [ did not consider at all’ pretty. © they told untruths to one, it was reas- onable to suppose that they would tell them to others.,”’ Not one of the winners is satisfied te be just beautiful, since they consider that, without other qualities, no great attraction.

Miss Meierhof’s heme Sunday—the day of the announce- , ment that she had won first prize— Was as it might be New Year's day when open house is being kept. The sun had not been looking long at the trees in Tower Grove Park when the first caller arrived, and it was late at night when the last one departed. The next day there was a repetition ef this performance. Telephone Bell Rang All Day. In Mrs. Wenzlick’s home there is a tel- ephone and the telephone operators at the Victor Station made so many con- nections for 2204J the day that her vic- % ‘Yory was announced—Sunday, June 2— that they feel entitled to a plano con- cert by wire as seon as Mrs. Wenzlick shall become familiar with the new grand instrument. “The bell rang all day,’ said Mrs. Wenzlick in speaking of the number ef congratulgtions she received. Both Miss Melerhof and Roennigke have moved to new homes hin the last fortnight, and that “4 them to lose some of their calls, ll as delayed their mail. ws Meierhof formerly resided at 3864 Aitenal street and Mrs. Roennigke at 2.0 ‘Sidney street. The letters of -‘congratulatien that caine from friends to the prize beauties Weie uUSgally short and full of good wishes, &s ere the kind one usually writes to graduates. Flere is one of the first received by Miss Meierhof: _Dear Meta: @ Accept our heartiest congratula- tions. You deserve another prize fer your cleverness. I remember the beautiful portiers and the table you designed. My people are in Cali- fornia, but I expect them home shortly. How is Millie? The music sheuld have entitled her, to distinc- tien and the dear mother should get a prize for youthfulness. I thought you were far.away in the North- west until I saw the Post-Dispatch. Hope you enjoy your prize without accident. May it spin you into the best that life offers. Sincerely, “ROSALIND — yp The reference to Miss Melerhof's clev- erness is a recognition of her ability as @n artist, designer and a musician. She paints in water colors and many of her @tudies hang on the walls of her home. Miss Meterhof Clever at Art. She designed portieres for the friend who wrote the letter, and for her fa- ther she planned a chess table. The *quares and the embroidered lettering are beneath a heavy glass covering.

All of which goes to show that those who have beauty are not such intense | ppecialists in this line that nothing else ay Troubles, Tea. xperiences prize beauties ma eh kd Wenzlick was a fine deg. A letter came from a St. Louisan possessing kennels. It said: “I would like to present you with a cog.”” Mrs. Wenzlick lives in an up- stairs apartment. and the offer could not be accepted. A pretty letter containing an offer of some rabbits was also received by Mrs. Wenzlick. It was written in big vertical penmanship by a little Shrews- bury (St. Louis County) boy. It read: Dear Lady: I saw your picture in the paper and I liked it. I would like to give you some of my rabbits. If you want them, will you let me know? Strangers’ Letters Not Answered. Mrs. Wenzlick, busy with the care of the home which she and the husband. to whom she was married 17 months ago, have made, did not reply to the letters she received from strangers with the exception of the one from the sin- cere little rabbit owner. She wrote at once thanking him for the bunnies, but explaining that they would not be hip- py in the quarters she would have to give them. One of the callers on Mrs. Wenzlick was a woman who told a pitiful story of her poverty and the difficulty she met with in trying to support her four small children. She asked that Mrs. Wenzlick take music lessons from her. “IT read in the paper that you won the piano, but it didn’t say that vou could play. Won't you let me teach you how? The money you will pay me will help support my children,” she said. Mrs. Wenzlick’s is the face that al- Ways attracts children. Her real curls make her like unto exquisitely-made dolls, carefully carved statues of girl saints, and the angel faces that the great painters put about their holy pictures. Her blue eyes have the look that the painters give their angels and her coloring is beautiful. At her home one afternoon several of the young women, who wen $25 prizes in the Post-Dispatch contest, gathered and held a ‘“‘letter fest.” They brought with them the letters that they had recelved. In one was an offer of 2500 shares of mining stock from a firm with offices in the Chemica) Building. Another offered te establish the recipient in ‘‘geod social position.” Their Cast-Off Clothes Wanted, One of the letters read at the fest was this, dated from a remote town: Dear some Missouri Miss: I should of your partly for my daughter. you must have a great many for which you have no need and for which you will not ask unreasonable prices. I am sure that anything that you have will be beautiful. Another contained this: have plenty, can surely spare some- thing for one in need. The gift of a few cents will not bother you and will greatly help me.” Miss Vivian Mitchell, whom Miss Meierhof has christened “the little heart breaker,”’ received an offer to be- come “leading lady” of a company which appeared at a down-town thee ater recently. The paper used was decorated in one corner with a large photograph of the manager, the author of the letter. Op- posite him was the picture of the lead- ing woman of the company at the time it started on the road. In the letter Was this tnformation: My ieading lady has just died and I must have you to take her place. I have seen your photograph in the paper and I know that you can fll her place as no one else can. I shall be in St. Louls at Theater and await your reply. Miss Mitchell's friends among the beauty contestants importuned her not to forget to send passes whenever she in St. Louis. iike to buy worn clothes I am sure that “You, who os to those of persons in hight , Winner of the first prize probably received more interesting let- ters than any of the others in the con- test. One contained an offer of marriage giving this information: “IT am 32 vears of age. ture and am sure we each other. I want to am sure that you will pointed in knowing me.”’ With Mrs. Wenzlick’s photograph was printed the information that she was happily married and that saved her from intense “mash notes.’ Her band laughingly remarked when the mail began to come in that he would serve as her private secretary and take charge of all the letters that might be termed ‘‘foolish.”’ The announcement of Miss Meierhof's engagement and that she would be mar- ried in the autumn served te keep all but one from writing in this vein to her. The one exceptien said: Dear Miss—Yeou have been highly honored by your home city. I have been waiting for some time to learn who would given the highest place among the women of the me- tropolis of the West, intending to offer to her my respect and to re- quest the pleasure ef an acquaint- ance. I hoped that when that had been accpmplished I would find in her one whom I could love and that, in return, she would be satisfied with me and my home in this little city of Collinsville, where roses bleom and street cars rufy., I am disappointed because the pa- pers say that you are already en- gaged. Can it net be that yeu have made a mistake? This honor will make a change in your life. You may not be pleased with that which once gave you happiness. Think more than once before you make your final decision. I should like to meet you and see if I could not make sufficient im- pression to at least cause a delay in the date of your marriage. I hope for a reply. This letter made no impression what- ever upon Miss Meierhof. Not Changed by Her Triumph. ‘“Nething could change my plans fer the future,” said, ‘‘at least noth- ing like that. I believe in marrying for love and my cheice has been ¢overned by nothing else. I am appreciative of the honor that has been given me and more than thankful to the judges for seeing beauty in my features, but, if such a thing as this would change my life, I should consider that I had not erdered it as well as I should.” Most of the letters which have been perused by Mrs. Reennigke’s bDlue eyes are from friends. If any has come from admirers whem she knows persenally she has net cenfided that fact to any- one. This bit of rhyme centained in ene ef the letters that she received gave are from friends.

Mrs. Wengzlick received one letter that did not give her amusement or pleasure. It came in the first mail Monday morning, June 3, and was post- marked “Vicksburg, Mise”” She opened it quickiy, hoping to a message . & Tra, gine>- “* sev ’ hus- 1] upon which was typewritten the follow- ing: Endless Prayer Chain. O Lord Jesus, we implore Thee, O Eternal God, to have mercy on all mankind. Keep us frem all sin by Thy precious blood and take us to be with Thee eternally. Amen. This prayer was written by Bishop Lawrence, who recommended that it be written and sent to nine (9) per- sons, who paid no attention and met with a terrible accident. He who will rewrite this prayer once each day for nine days and send it to nine persons commencing the day it is received will on the ninth day experience great joy. It was said at Jerusalem at Hopy Flat that he whe would rewrite § this prayer would be delivered from ev- ery calamity. DO NOT BREAK THIS CHAIN. Mrs. before she finished reading this letter. She did not copy it as directed, but she is still well and happy. She had not heard of the trouble that clergymen of the Episcopal faith have gone to in their effort to suppress this letter, which in some strange way has been circulated by the hundred over the country. Artists Looking for Work. Two artists wrote for the privilege ef painting Mrs. Wenzlick’s portrait, and arrangements have been made to have the famous ‘veil phetograph” of Miss Meierhof done in water celors. The “veil phetograph’”’ Meierhof’s brown shows Miss hair parted in its usual style with a half-wavy lock part- ly leosened from the rest and wander- ing after its own fashien across the right temple almost to the eyebrow. She is glad that it will be done in water colors, because it is her faverite picture. Mrs. Wenzlick has not yet given a commission to either of the artists who have asked her to sit fer them. s is the way it feels to be a prize Never Fails to RESTORE GRAY HAIR to its NATURAL COLOR No matter how long it has been gray or faded.

The grocer, the milkman, the letter carrier, as well as crowds of others born with the Missouri instinct, respectfully request that the member of the family who has thus received dis- tinction be shown to them. E:verybedy Wanted to See Her. To Mrs. Meierhof, many persons whom she knows only in a business way, said: CB LICK Winner ol the second prize “T want to see your daughter.” Miss Meierhof repaid them for their interest with a flower, dividing her floral gifts with all who came, either through friendship or curiosity. Perhaps, when you were little, one of the games at your school was “King William,” at least you know what it is to play choosing games. Were you ever able to understand how it happened when others were chosen for first place instead of yourself? That’s the way it is with a number of persons in St. Louis. only the person considered is not always “‘myself,’’ but “the woman I think most beautiful.”’ The prize beauties find that there are many women ready to quote from Ethel M. Kelly’s poem, “She ain’t so much! I seen her at the show. If she’s a ravin’ beauty, I don’t know What good loeks is, an’ I shan’t never learn.

The notes of congratulation that did not come from well-loved friends, the pleasure that was not manifested by those who had hitherto been well wish- ers—these are the small thorns in the crown of beauty.

By JOHN P. LEAHY. CORK, Ireland. HE first impression one receives in A a visit to Ireland is a country on which Providence has bestowed with a most lavish hand the choicest gifts of nature. There is green, green everywhere and such a rich, mellow green as is only seen In the fertile hills and valleys of Ireland. There is a gen- fal warmth in the air and the rays of the sun are tempered with a mild soft- ness, which leaves mo room for sur- mise in the minds of observers that this benignant luminary was so de- vyotedly worshiped as a God in the pre- historic days in Ireland. Né\ertheless, with all the beauties of ~and dale, the visitor from the great blic of the West finds himself in a country which its in the world, but not of it. No Progress in Ireland. The paradox becomes excusable and in- be ili when it is remembered that Kress is the rule everywhere from aaa ve ie -HILTS * Se

Here there is no progress; there is not even stability. There is on all sides retro- gression and decay.

This is, of course, confined to the younger men and wemen, who are far in the minority in Ireland, for it is fram this class the emigrants almost wholly come.

We are not afraid of the future, and, if necessary, will adopt measures which will compel Ireland’s claims to be listened to.’’ One Boon to Ireland.

Miss Christine Kiehl, while studving sculpture at the St. Louis School of Fine Arts in the term which just closed, did ‘the housework, ironing for the family of Custodian Holiand of the big Municipal Museum in [ or: cst Park. She lived in the Museum Building with the Hollands. At 2 o'clock every Mon- day morning she arose and did the family washing. For three hours her back was bent over the tub. Then she would hang out the wash, change her clothes and hurry to her place at the modeling table in the art school class- room. Tuesday she would again rise at 2 a. m. and iron the garments which she had washed the previous day. washing and Used Soap and Gum. A 5-cent bar of yellow.soap and ten sticks of white wax chewing gum lifted Christine from the plane of a domestic drudge to the level of an artist. And back of these was the Post-Dispatch want ad which took her to the home of Mrs. C. G. Bang, wife of a physician at 1229 Monroe street in October, 1902. She had come from her Gasconade County home in search of employment as a servant and she had tramped the streets for scveral days when she saw the advertisement inserted by Mrs. Bang. Her only recommendation was got the place. For six months she did the housework, washing and froning and mending be- fore her talent was discovered. It was carly Monday morning, washday. Mrs. Bang sent Christine to a store for a bar of soap. Experts Were Surprised. When the girl returned she went into the laundry in the basement. Half an hour later she went upstairs and showed Mrs. Bang a beautifully carved head of a boy fashioned from a Piece of soap. ‘‘That is very pretty,”’ sald Mrs. Bang. “Did the grocer give it to you as a premium when you bought the soap?’ “Why, no,” replied the: girl, “I cut it with the kitchen knife while I was wait- ing for the water to boil.” “Tl thought anybody could do that,” said Christine. “It comés natural to me."* Mrs. Bang was canvinced when Chris- tine melted together 10 sticks of white wax chewing gum and carved the re- sultant mass into a really fine bust of Shakspeare.

Shortly after the World's Fair opened I took the models to one of the men who had charge of the Italian sculpture exhibit in the Man- ufactures Building. He was astounded. With the greatest enthusiasm he sa'd the girl ought to have an opportunity to study art. “So I went to F. Julian Zolnay, chief of the sculpture section of the World's Fair, and showed, him the:models. He was more enthusiastic than the Italian. He begged me to induce Cshristine to enter the school. “He said, though, that she must study drawing. When I told her this she al- most cried. She said that she had never drawn a line in her life. I took her to Zolnay. He gave her crayon and paper and a picture to copy. After pro- testing, she went to work and the result was wonderful. Mr. Zolnay said that her drawing was superior to that of many students who had been at school for years. “This aroused her ambition. In a few weeks she entered the modeling class and within two months she had made four beautiful busts which I have here Miss Kiehl has sold a few of her works and has used the money to help pay her tuition, but the total amount she has made in this way is far less than she needs to follow an artistic career.

Resident members of the Missouri Athletic Club were aroused by a fire which started in the second floor of the four-story building occupied by the Charles Rost-Eastern House Furnishing Co., immediately north of the club building, shortly after midnight this morning. Club members and servants hastened from their beds and watched the fire- men’s battle with the flames from rear windows, prepared to flee from the building in case the fire should get be- yond control. The cause of tue fire could not be as- certained. The building and the streets in the vicinity were choked by the dense smoke. Street car traffic was interrupt- ed. The first alarm of fire was followed by a second one calling out more en- gines. At 12:45 o’clock the fire was under con- trol. Most ef the damage by flames was confined to the second floor, but smoke and water damaged the stock in the upper stories.

I Knew he was married, but never saw his wife, who did not come to the store, and am fgnorant of his family affairs.” Fifteen years ago, when Levy was connected with one of the big downtown department stores, he was regarded as a “high-roller." He was still a mem- ber of the gay “Gilded Youths,” his ac- quaintances say, when it became hnown that he had a wife. No formal an- nouncement of the wedding waa made. Mrs. Levy is described as a tall and strifing blonde woman, now about % yale old. She once lived in Kansas ‘ity, and was known before her mar- riage to Levy as Florence Welch. Levy is 39 years old. Mr. and Mre. Levy lived for a time at 4116 Finney avenue. Meeting Tonight at Hibernian Half in Interest of Free Ireland.

If there is a live rat in St. Louis this morning he is a lucky rodent. The wide publicity given to “Rat Night’ by the Post-Dispatch incited hun@reds of citizens to action in the crus&de against the pests.” Drvgegists in all parts of the city re- port#d last night that the sale of poi- sons @uring the day had been unprece- dent@fi in volume It was suid that if all the arsenic and strychnine distrib- uted in the back vards, sheds and cel- lars*of St. Louis homes was consumed there would not be enough rats left to nee a ratification meetinz urns were late coming in, and it is "4° possible to tell just what the fa- taliges were.

In arly every case the rat chokes to death under this treatment. ‘Feast for the Dogs Today. Traps of every kind were in use, and from indications many St. Louis ter- riers will have a good time today, lid er no lid. Here is where the element of sport enters into the big rat-killing fest.

Then a new source of unrest became apparent to Mr. Greenwood. It was the patrician palate of the animal. The plain, homely fare usually prescribed for tabbies, and which he had thought to provide, went untouched, and to keep the cat from starving he bought pork chops, milk and delicacies, which, he says, were bestowed in large quantities. Having put so much into the animal, in a purely business way, Mr. Green- wood was unwilling to lose on the in- vestment, so when Mr. Syckes returned and claimed the Angora, Mr. Greenwood spoke of the pork chops and said he had spent so much that he regarded the cact as his property.

PITTSBORO, Ind, June .15.—A_five- legged colt was born on the farm of Owen Waters, near North Salem, and -a number of horsemen went to see ihe animal. Instead of being a “‘dew claw,”’ which is a somewhat cemmon occur- rence, two distinct and perfect limbs branched off from the hock joint, which were supplied with hoofs, as in the normally formed horse. The colt, which was perfect in all oth- er parts, was killed, and Dr. R. F. Dean, a veterinarian, dissected the _ parts. A very curious arrangement of joints, ligaments and tendons were revealed, that would puzzle the most thoroughly versed student of equine anatomy. Dr. Dean somewhat hesitatingly advanced the theory of recurrence ‘in explanation of the abnormal condition. The present horse, in the process of |: evolution, has descended from an animal that originally had five toes, the rudi- ments of which are still found in the horse of today, and it is the theory that simply the abnormal development pro- duced the growth.

The newly- | formed National Hotel Keepers’ Asso-. ciation intends to put a stop to their eccentric behavior. : At the inaugural meeting of the asso- ciation, the chairman—Dudley James of ' Morley’s Hotel—pointedly alluded to the lost jewel pests. ‘We should be ready | to protect hotel proprietors from unjust | actions for compensation,” he said, and added, ‘“‘especially those arising from | that class of people who seem to stay in | hotels to lose valuable jewelry. | “I had in mind the case of the man | who, while staying at a London hotel, ! insisted that banknotes had beeen ex- tracted from his bag in his bedroom,” said Mr. James afterward. “It was aft- erwards found that there never had! been any bank notes.” Several hotel proprietors who were in- | terviewed were fully In accord-with the | aim of the new association. “We have a notice in every room dis- ! claiming responsibility,” said the man-' ager of a West End hotel. “But it ts well known that any high class estab- lishment would rather suffer a loss of, $500 or so than let it be generally known that a theft had occurred on the prem- ises. “Take a case that occurred recently | here.

It is expected that 30,000 visitors will be in the city during the celebration.

Paducah, Ky., has promised to ship at least 2 chug wagons to Cairo by steamboat and there will be many oth- ers, several of them from St. Louis. The finest launches on the Ohio River and along the Mississippi delta have been entered in competition for the trophies which the hustlers will give for speed. The steamer Hopkins will carry a large delegation from Evansville, Ind., Accompanying the boat will be a small tieet of yachts and iaunches. To Parade in White.

Code, chief engineer of the Indian Depart- ment hag arrived here from Washing- ton to consult with Louis C. Hill, en- gineer in chief of the Tonto Basin and Yurs irrigation projects, with re- gar! to the allottment of land to the Yuma Indians. Every brave, squaw and papoose will get five acres of this land «nd the engineers will set this aside wefore the drawing. Probably the Indians will get 5000 acres. It will be at least a year, if not longer, before the land is open. While the polnt has not been settled, Super- intendent Ira C. Deaver of the Yuma resorvation states that In all proba- bility the Government will allow 3et- tlers to homestead only 40 acres ¢1ich. This is well enough since few men could take care of 40 acres of such land and bring it under the i g# cul- tivation possible. The homesteaders will have tt) pay the cost of irrigation work in the an- nua! installments. al MADSTONE IS APPLIED T0 WOUNDS FROM DOG BITES Adhered for More Than Hour and Victim Expected to Fully Recover. PLEASANT HILL, Mo., June 15.» Miss Vella Collins of Strasburg, wht was attacked and bitten by two fero- cious dogs, is being treated by applica- tions of a ‘“‘madstone’’ at Cockrell, Mo. The stone, when applied to the wounds, adhered for more than an hour. The dogs will be held for three weeks and will then be killed. They have not shown symptoms of hydrophobia, but the owner of the stone says they must be mad or the stone would not have ad- hered to the wound. Treatment having been given Miss Collins soon after the attack, no serious results are antici- pated.

Both Refuse to Discuss Society Gossip. but Mrs. Tucker’s Mother Admits Her Daugh- ter Hasn’t Seen Col, Tucker for Two Months.

CHICAGO, June 15. OCIAL circles of three cities have S been stirred by the reported es- trangement between Col. William F. Tucker, U. 8S. A., and his wife, daughter of Mrs. John A, Logan. In Washington, where Mrs. Tucker and her mother are living, and in New York, where the Colonel and his wife are well known socially, there was much specu- lation concerning the reasons, while in Chicago, where the Tuckere are even better known, society showed intense in- terest. Col. Tucker is now in Chicago as Chief Paymaster of the Department of the Lakes. He has refused to discuss the reported separation. He said: ‘I have nothing to say about the matter. I do not care to discuss it. There is nothing to discuss. If there were I would talk.” In Washington Mrs. Tucker said: “I cannot deny or affirm this report just at this time,’’ while Mrs. John A. Lo- gan said: ‘“‘My caughter has not seen her husband since she returned with him from the Philippines last April That is all I have to say on the sub- ject at this time. I do not care to dis- cuss {ft further.’’ Col. Tucker is living at the house of T. Edward Wilder at Elmhurst.

recipient of the now famous ‘colossal chunk-of-cheek"” letter, written by Mrs. Marjory H. Cochrane of Chicago, is back to Cincinnati, the happy possessor of a husband who has been enjoined by court decree from flirting with her rival. Judge Fake of the Municipal Court commanded that Mrs. Cochrane and Mr. Osler never meet or see each other again. Mrs. Cochrane, pretty and plump, had written to Mr. Osler’s wife that she ‘would not break up her relations with Mr. Osler, because they were too holy and grand.” In court, where Mrs. Cochrane was ac- cused of “alienating her husband’s af- fections,’’ Mrs. Osler said she had made up with her husband and wouid with- draw from the prosecution of her rival if the defendant would promise never to see Mr. Osler again. “I won't see him any more.”’ pleaded the pretty defendant. ‘But, of course, Judge, you don’t expect me to wear gog- gles or bli... ers.” “I mean,” said the Court, “you must quit your flirting.: FAITHFUL DOG SAVES BABY ATTACKED BY A WILD HOS Kentucky Child’s Pet Battles Val- iantly to Protect It From Ferocious Animal. ROCKPORT, Ky., June 15.—Attacked by a wild hog, which had come out of the woods in search of food, a 2-year- old child of James Mogan, though bad- ly mungied, was saved by a St. Ber- nard dog which had been left to guard it. The child had wandered away from his home and the hog attacked it with the evident intention of eating it. The dog attacked the beast, and, although it was badly mangled by.the animal's tusks, succeeded in driving it off.

Mrs. Charles Barnes, of Easton, Md., writes us that she has. been cured of indigestion and weakness, after months of suffering, by Duffy’s Pure [alt Whiskey. Like thousands of others who are over=- joyed at being cured she is anxious to let every sufferer know of the great good derived from this wonderful medicine, which is a form of food already digested. She writes: “I have been taking Duffy’s Pure Malt Whiskey for quite @ while, and am very much stronger and feel better than before I commenced taking it. I can heartily recommend it as a fine medicine for one who is weak and run down. It is good for indiges- tion. In my own case I had acute indi- gestion, and now I do not suffer from it like I did. T am still taking your val- ae uable medicine and intehd te Jo so t eee along.”—-MRS. CHARLES BARNES, MRS. CHARLES BARNES Easton, Md., Jan. Slat, 1907. Duffy’s Pure Malt Whiskey is distilled wholly from malted grain by a most expensive method which has never -heen made public. This private process insures quality and flavor. Its softness, palatability and freedom from those injurious substances found in other whiskies make it acceptable to the most sensitive stomach. If you wish to keep young, strong and vigorous and have .on your cheeks the glow of perfect health, take Duffy’s Pure Malt Whiskey regularly, according to directions, and take no other medicine, It is dangerous to fill yourself with drugs; they poison the. blood, while Duffy’s Pure Malt Whiskey tones and strengthens the heart action and purifies the entire system.

Lumber Co. actually owns 50 solid miles of timber in the very heart of the thriving and _ prosperous lumber district of British Columbia, and that they have 500,000,000 feet ef lumber on this tract that ean be cut down and put through the mill at a net profit of $12.40 per thousand feet, the figures are startling enough to make you pause and think, There are 42 successful sawmills running In this district today—not one of these successful mills has a tract that can be worked to better advantage than ours. In fact, there is no other 50 miles of timber tn the United States or Canada that can be more econ- omically worked. - All of our timber flosts to the mi!jl and is cut and loaded on cars without there being a single cent of freight expenses. The company proposes to erect a modern saw- mill. which will cut 100,000 feet of lumber per day. All it needs is a little figuring of your own to see What enormous profits this company is going to make for its stockholders. ENORMOUS PROFITS FOR OUR STOCKHOLDERS. DIVIDENDS DECLARED EVERY S5IX MON THS. The average selling price of Iumber at the mill today is $19.55 per thousand feet. Our cost of cutting, logging, milling. selling, bookkeeping, everything is $7.15 per thousand feet. making a profit of $12.40 per thousand feet, Our mill will cut 100,000 feet per day. This will net our company $12.40 per 1000 feet— or $1240.00 per day. Think of it. $1240 per day net profits. Our mill will operate not less than 300 days In the yeat—showing net profits of $872,000.00 per year for our Investors. Without taking into consideration the enhance- ment of our property or the natural increase in price, the profits will be over $6,000,.000—being over five times par, or $5 per share of stock that you have the opportunity to buy at 40 cents per share. We have a market right now for every foot we can cut for the mext three years. As soon as the mill te up dividends will commence. Figure out yourself what a small investment will bring you. A MUTUAL COMPANY EVERYBODY GETS A SQUARE DEAL. The Columbia Mutual Lamber Co. is incorpo- rated for $1,600,000, in shares of $1 each. It is a mutual company, and every stockholder has an equal vote, whether he bas 5000 shares or

and every share is full paid and non-assessable. Everything about the company is open and above board, and will appeal to the most con- servative investor. The men back of this company are not Wall Street speculators, but clean, conserva- tive business men. They will give you a square deal. When profits come in you will get your share, We are aware that we make a stupendous show- ing of profits, but the timber is standing there, and the profits are bound to follow. It is a positive, sure proposition, There never has been a failure in Jumbering near the big bend of the Columbia. This company is going to be a success, whether rou come in or not. The Amount of stock we have to sell at 40 cents is limited, and if you ex- pect to get it at that price, you must write quick, before it issall gooe. 1000 PER CENT NIVIDENDS WHAT IT MEANS. One thousand per cent on your moncy seems & big thing to the man OF woman who is content with 8 to 5 per cent from & savings bank or wmort- gage. 1000 per cent means that if you invest $10 In our company it will bring you in $100. If you invest $100 it will bring you In $1000. If you In- vest $1000 it will bring you $10,000, and so on up to any amount you put tn. These figures are start- ling, but that Is just what 1000 per cent meaus and just what you will «et for every dollar in- vested in the Columbia Mutual Lambor Co. Anybody can invest in savings banks or mort- gages and get, their little 3 or 5 per cent a year, but it is the shrewd men who invest in compan- jes like ours and reap the big dividends. You can't get rich on 53 to 5 per cent a year, but when you get 1000 per cent it won't take you long to count your money in five figures. It may seem this is too good to be true, bat when you come to think of It. why should you not make 13000 per cent. the same as other men bave done, who have become rich by investing in the right companies at the right time. Do you not know that every successfol company in the United States today bad ® bard time to get capital when they started? Think ef Quaker Oats wise enoagh to’ rest in these stocks on the ot 1000 per cent but 10,-

| 000 to 20,000 per cent on their original investment. It is fust this ‘‘afraid of your life policy’’ of the investor that -makes stock in new companies low, but after the stock pays dividends, then ‘‘afrald of your life’ people will buy at probibitive prices and take their little 3 to 6 per cent profit, where the man with a little foresight rakes in a small for- tune, Stock in this company is going to be worth at least five times the par value some of these days, and you may be one of these people that will want it then. It don’t take a financler to figure ont this deal. Your own common sense {s enough to tell you that if you ever expect to make a good turn, the time to do it is right now and in stock of the Columbia Mutual Lumber Co. at 40c a share. The man who would not buy stock in our com- pany at 40 cents, with $6.000,000 In profits back of % would not pick up gold dollars if he found them in the street, because he would be afraid he might lose them before he got home.

ERRORS WERE PLENTIFUL IN THE LOCAL STRUGGLE

McAleer’s Men Shut Out Their Opponents Four to Nothing While McCloskey’s Team is Beaten by a Four to One Score at League Park.

When McCloskey selected McGlynn to! pitch in the third game with Boston yesterday the fans settled down and waited for a warm contest. Many ex- pected another shutout for Boston, as Stony is in the best.of condition at pres- ent. He lost to Flaherty by a score of 4 to 1. Both clubs fielded listlessly and each made several attempts to present the gamé to the other. The (Bostonians obliged the Cardinals by taking it in the fourth inning, after the Cardina's refused to accept it in their half of the first. The second half of the first inning for ‘ the Cardinals was as peculiar an inning as ever witnessed on a ball field. Brid- well fumbled Kelley’s easy one andl threw wild to first, and before the ball could be. returned ‘King Kel’’ was tak- Dates breath on third. Seme Queer Playing. Bennett sent a hot one to Ritchey, who posted: tt about, the runner reaching the ~ Hag safely and Kelley crossed the plate. * Bennett became ill on the diamond and d to be assisted to the bench. Beck- y ran for him. Another fumble by Bridwell placed Holly and Beckley on second and first, when the shortstop shad a chance for a sure double play. “Murfay laid down a pretty sacrifice, ad- vancing the runners a base. Hostett:: grounded to Ritchey and in a funny play Beckley was caught between third and home. Jake stood still in his tracks and allowed Ritchey to come in with the ball and tag him out, but his act permitted both runners to advance a base. Byrne was then passed, again filling the bases. Burch forced Byrne at second on a hot grounder to Brid- well. Flaherty pitched a good game and al- lowé dthe Cardinals but one clean sin- gie. Had Bridwell played a clean game His left-hand delivery puzzled the Cardinais the entire game and he took his time about winning. The last game of the series will come off at League Park this afternoon and it is very likely that McCloskey will give his rlewcomer, Lefty Laish, a try at the visitors.

Pruitt twirled for Boston and apart from the sixth inning, when a combination of hits and errors netted the Browns three runs, very clever game. Manager Maguire used 13 men in his effort to win, but Pelty was at ail times master of the situation and accordingly won his fourth straight victory. The nen behine him plaved a mucii superior article of ball to that exhibited by them Friday and in fact played like real *champs.”’ Stone opened the first inning by lay- ing one down to Pruitt, who, by a fast throw, nipped the premier batter at the bag. Jones got a life when Congalton missed his short fly. Pickering followed with a clean single to right. Wallace fouled out to Criger, but Pruitt passed Hemphill, making it a full house. But- ler tried hard, but his best was a cut to Unglaub, and Pruitt pulled out of a bad hole with no damage being done. A Hit for Stone. Stone singled in the third as a starter, but Jones and Pickering were out in succession and Criger caugiit§ the Browns’ left fielder attempting to pur- loin the second sack. The fourth inning also opened pvo- pitiously for St. Louis, with Wallace emashing a ripping double to right, which went for naught though when he tried to stretch it into thrce bases, as a pretiy relay from Congalton Ferris to Knight caught third sack. Both teams went. out in order the sixth, when the Browns sewed up the game by tallying three runs. Stone led off with a walk, and when Pruitt threw Tom Jones’ bunt wild advanced to s2cond. Another fumble by. Pruitt of Pickering’s bunt filled the bases, with no one out. Wallace, though, was unequal to the occasion and Stone was caught at home on the shortstop’s puny hit to the pitcher. Pruitt went balloon- ing though with Hemphill, giving the latter four balls and forcing in Jones. Butler popped to Unglaub for the sec- ond out and things looked a bit more rosey for the home team, but Hartzell followed with a clean single, scoring Pickering and Wallace. ©’Connor end- to him at the until 9 ed the inning by tapping to Knight, who 0 caught Hartzell at third. 1 | 4 Seventh on Stone’s safe bunt, followed The Browns scored another in the by Jones’ double, though the latter was caught trying to stretch the hit a triple.

of the Christian Brothers College was held in the campus of the institution yesterday afternoon. Conditions were not favorable for a successful meet and the attendance was the largest that has been seen at the college campus in a long time, and the majority of the spec- tators were women. The event of the day was the 100-yard championship, and competition was con- fined to W. Ratican and John Dalton, who are admittedly the best runners in the college. It was a superb contest, and there is no doubt that the best man won. But while Ratican won the prin- cipal event of the day, the honors easily went to Dalton, who showed amazing form in all his contests. Daiton a Good Man, The meeting developed the fact that in John Dalton the C. B.

CHICAGO, June 15.—Chicago society is intensely interested in the news that after twice refusing to his bride, Miss Irene M. Porter, a swect singer and society belle, will soon wed Count Miguel de Ribarra, a wealthy grandee of Barcelona, Spain. Miss Porter, whose beautiful face and figure have attracted the ad+ miration of a score of suitors, twice refused the ardent plea of the Spanish nobleman, but after each refusal he becaine more persistent in his wooing. The offer of the Count to make her a member of the Spanish nobilitv had no attraction for Miss Porter, who in 1904 scorned an offer made by the wife of Don Victor Mappa, then Attorney-Gen- eral of the Philippine Islands and As- sociate Justice of the Supreme Court of that country, to adopt her. Miss Porter met Count Rebaira while the guest of Mrs. Mappa of the Philip- rine Commission at the St. Louis Ex- positiun. “I will never marry anyone except an American gentleman,”’ she said at that time, and the Count retired despondent.

Are you prepared to become a ‘“‘wiggle- woggier If not, clinch your fists and determine not to shudder. The “wiggle-woggle’’ is the latest New York

| , grit your teeth, break-neck idea and 1s soon to be intro- Si. It is rapidly dis- placing the at duced in Louis. roller skate in favor Coney island. Hopes are expressed that the island will survive the shock. The ‘‘wiggle-woggle’ is a small three- cornered plattorm, just large enough for an adult human toe stand on. At each corner is a tiny wheel about the size of a piano-castor. A _ steering bar is connected with the front castor and is controlled by a pair of long strings. So much for scientific explanation. The “‘wiggle-woggler’’ steps aboard the platform and grasps the steering reins. Then he proceeds to ‘‘wiggle-waggle.”’ Also to ‘‘woggle.”’ As he ‘‘wiggles’’ the freak vehicle sets in motion and he can Steer it whence he pieases. Theoretic- aliy, he can. In fact, the novice steers it due north when he means that it should go southwest bv south. The frantic efforts of a brand-new ‘“wiggle- woggler”’ attempting to travel in one di- rection consecutively is said to be fun- nier than profanity at a woman's and children’s matinee. Oftimes the prow of the “‘wiggle-wog- gle”’ then there is some aerial ‘‘wiggle- woggling’’ worth going milk to see. Generally the ‘‘wiggle-woggle” loses its passengers somewhere in mid-air. Then following the bump of man and mecha- nism, there are two widely separated cracks in the floor. ““Wiggle-wogglettes’’ — feminine ‘“‘wig- gle-wogglers’’—do the thing far more gracefully than most men folks. They feet at a time and rarely trip the rink over when they fall. Some of the fancy “wiggle-woggles’’ are made to represent giant turtles and the performer stands on the imitation shell. Then, if he tries to imitate a Roman candle, the people will tei: him he has “turned turtle,’’ which is a joke. This will cheer him up and make him forget his sores after soaring. Therefore, grit your teeth.

No TOOT TOUT VEUe oe eo ane e MOULIN Indiana Men Teach Young Bud Tila % ay How to Shoot and Old How to Drink. CANNELTON, Ind., June 15.—Hoew to prevent saloon keepers from obtaining licenses to teach in the public schools of the State is a problem confronting the Indiana Department of Education. It has been found that two men who own and operate saloons in Perry County are teaching in public schools. They employ bartenders for $1 and $1.50 a day, while they receive $2 and $2.50 for teaching. During the summel months these men personally sell drinks. The State Superintendent recently re- fused to issue a teacher's certificate to “a man who was known to be a drinking ee ate es erie. man. But when he started after the rds end ee as ae | Ne By Sey f jsaloon keepers he found he was up % er ae he AE) t against a more difficult proposition. The State Board of Education is a unit that the liquor drinker has a shade the bet- ter of it in morals than the liquor seller. The laws of Indiane require only that an applicant for a teacher's certificate must pass an examination and that he: must be of good mora! character. Like-! wise, the liquor laws require that saloon : licenses shali be issued only to men of good inora] character. When a saloon keeper applies for a treacher’s certificate he comes armed with a State reconiinendation of his character in the shape of his saloon license.

, ILL they succeed in reading a message from Mars during the opposition of the planet now approaching? Will the astronomers who have gone to South America with elaborate instruments from Chicago, be able to photograph the strange lights and flashes from this mysterious orb which they expect to see? Will it be possible.to decipher the meaning of such flashes? These questions astronomers all over the world are now asking. They are looking forward with intense interest to the result of this expedition, whose sole purpose is.to study Mars from a lofty mountain peak while the period of oppo- sition lasts, There is no doubt in many circles that the men on Mars know that the planet is now coming close again and will probably make a tremendous effort to communicate with the inhabitants of the earth. The people:of Mars, it is believed, want to communicate with the earth. At the last opposition 14 years ago three strange lights in a triangle were seen through the great Lick telescope as Mars rose above the blue waters of the Pacific. These were observed not once, but repeatedly. The orb rose into the evening sky with its white snowcaps and its green canals plainly outtined against: its orange surface, and then, as if a gigantic signal were flashed towards the earth, one after another of these three lights suddenly appeared. They were not there when the planet came into view, but it seemed as if the Martians waited for a favorabl: opportunity when their orb should be squarely in front of the greatest telescope in the world and then turned on the signals. But they were disappointed in estab- lishing communication with the earth and nobody has seen the signals since. The Martian people appear to have overestimated the intelligenee of the people of the earth. They were apparently judging us by themselves. As a matter of fact, we today on the earth are believed to be as far behind the people of Mars as the people of the stone age were behind us. This is @re plain lession taught by the markable book of Prof. Peréival Lowell, the greatest living writer on the subject. He has no doubt that Mars is inhabited, and while he does not expressly say 80. his book entitled “Mars and Its Canals,” plainly shows that the people of that planet are so highly civilized as to make us of the earth look like poor barbarians. When Prof. Lowell speaks of “canals,” he means huge artificial waterways built by the Martians and so big as to make the Panama Canal look “like thirty cents.” There is no such thing as a natural canal. If the people of Mars can build canals several thousand miles in length and miles in width, what else might they not do? All the wealth in the world today employing all the people could not ir. a thousand years construct on the earth the numerous canals which Prof. Lowell has pointed out on Mars. These canals, apparently, were built because Mars was running short of water. The most plainly visible thing on Mars which you can see through any ordinary telescope, are the two snowcaps, one at the north pole, the other at the south pole, which grow in size and then melt with the advance of winter and of summer. When Mars dried up, its people apparently did not have enough water to go around, because there are no Oceans on Mars. They were confronted with extinc- tion. But even Nature cannot extinguish people of the highest intelligence. They promptly proceeded to make use of these two snowcaps by building an enormous series of canals for irrigation purposes. In this. way they have a system of irri- gation that would make California turn green with envy. In fact, this intricate system turns Mars green at certain seasons of the year, as in spring when the crops may be seen sprouting along the bank of the canals and then spreading inland, so that Mars, instead of looking like a dry desert, is intersected by long streaks of green which Prof. Percival Lowell has reproduced in colors in his book, These are the growing crops, probably consisting of hay, oats, potatoes and clover. People who could build canals like that could do anything. It is impossible that these canals could have been natural waterways, because they. run on mathe- matical lines and intersect each other just where thay would do the most good. The men of Mars are supposed to know that on this earth is a race of people with a great opinion of themselves and a few rude instruments. Indeed, it is not at all impossible that the Martians may know all about us. If, thejr telescopes are as g00d as their canals, they might easily see St. Louis and observe railroad trains and ocean steamships and great fires. They probably saw the destruction of San Francisce, : Taking their canals as an indication of their intelligence, it is considered not impossible that they may long ago have mastered the secrets of wireless teleg- raphy and the mysterious, rays whose existence the scientist of this world’ are now only beginning to suspect. They might thus. not only through their powerful tele- Scopes see what was going on on the earth, but they might also lsten with deli- cately balanced Instruments that would respond.to our.puny fooling with elec- tricity. Edison, Marconi, De Forrest and other experimenters with wireless teleg- raphy have frequently called attention to:mysterious dots and dashes that appear to come from nowhere. Is it possible that there were efforts of the Martians to open communication with us in another direction? Is it possible that they see us groping blindly on the outskirts of electricity and are trying to help us along? That is one of the questions scientists have asked. Having no wars, they appear likewise to have solved the problems of govern- ment. If Mars were cut up into a lot of rival nations, each jealous of the other, then their magnificent system of canals would have been impossible. The geo- metrical regularity of these canals shows a unity of purpose consistent only with one central government, conducted on a highly civilized plan. They may have the ideal government. Mars may be the abode of the millennium. As human beings, it is considered impossible that they could have dug their canals with spade and pick, the way we propose to dig the Panama Canal. They could have only made these canals by some wonderful machinery which does the work of man, and their craps are supposed to be gathered by-another set of machinery. Perhaps the only work they ever do on Mars is to think. A Martian may not have to labor at all, but by touching a button all the farm work is accomplished and he has the rest of the day to indulge in flights of the imagination or ifn pleasant games. The Martians are believed to be very scientific, as they well might be, having abundance of time and the mastery of the problems of nature which we are only now beginning to suspect. How they made the three strange lights observed in the Lick telescope has never been explained. Apparently they have a kind of light that makes acetylene gas look like a tallow candle. They know better than we do that Mars is now coming close to the earth again, and it is believed that they will make this sum- mer a tremendous effort to open up communication. Since the last opposition of Mars we. too, have been groping forward and have made some progress which may help us to establish friendly relations. The great Yerkes telescope has been set up, throwing the Lick telescope imto the shade. Photography has made immense strides. The art of lensmaking has im- proved. We therefore can see Mars better than we ever could before, and the party going to South America will take the most elaborate photographs ever made of this planet. When the signals flash out again, if they do, they will be imperishably recorded on the sensitive plates. Moreover, we can now listen for signals through our rude knowledge of wireless telegraphy and Gamma rays, unknown 14 years ago. A sudden agitation of these delicate instruments s taneous with the flashing of mysterious lights on Mars would now have @ o significance. '. ee. Ge These are some of the aspects of the coming opposition being eagerly dis- cussed in astronomical circles. The astronomers are now all on the qui vive. Naturally cautious, they hesitate to give out predictions holding out hopes to the Earth that may not be fulfilled, but amongst themselves there is nothing that they would not be prepared to see come from Mara, during the present summer. ~ 7 ~. ‘ 7 = Pai eke” Sean ea 4 |

which the telephone has brought into existence. It has an impor- tant relationship to crime, which the public authorities are only now beginning to find out, but it has a still more important rela- tionship to love and life and com- merce and agriculture. While it throws new difficulties in the way of the police, it helps them more than it hurts them. Hardly a week goes by now but some new use is found for this remarkable invention.

i At Columbus, O., the telephone has re- Gently been called into service to put a quietus on “mashers.”” For several months this species of ‘‘lady-killer” had been annoying women, and the police seeined to be unable to cope with them. Finally the “mashers” began to use the telephone promiscuously, and then they met their downfall. It was their custom te call up women and girls, who fre- quentiy did not understand that they were talking to an utter stranger untii the conversation had been in progress some time. So many complaints were made of this character that at last the ,, Citizens’ Telephone Co. resolved to take ervlc measures to protect its patrons. A plan was devised whereby when a private residence was called the opera- r at central “listened in” long enough ascertain if the “masher was at end of the line.

A trip to the police station followed, and after a few such experi- ences there was a. decided falling-orf in such complaints. St. Louls recently had a similar case, a clerk in the West End having an- noyed a woman by ‘phone until she was forced to appeal to the police.

But I belleve it is merely a fad with them. They drink because they think it is fashionable. It will soon pass away, like other pernicious fads.” On the subject of the broken mirrors disaster, the superstition of the omen cted therewith, and the latter suse of the reported wholesale de- ser on of the athletic club, Mrs. Lyon wa at first disinclined to talk freely.

When tne coincidence of dates was pointed out. she said: Woman’s Special Rights. “A° woman reserves her right to two things. They are: To change her mind, and to pin her faith to that old broken- mirror ill omen. When the mirrors cracked in the clubrooms the women freely predicted seven years of bad luck —and we have certainly had plenty of bad luck since.” The fateful day when the first mirror broke in the club was a golden one in September. The swimming tank in the natatorium invited the overheated dames to a refreshing plunge. In the afternoon the large plate-glass mirrors on the walls of the natatorium reflected the forms of tne fair bathers, until the pool seemed to teem with hundreds of graceful water nymphs. Wives of millionaire nates, multi-millionaire packers, law- vers, judges. merchants, land owners, their daughters and women friends, ais- ported in the cooling waters, splashing one another in great glee. In the midst of the revelry there was a sharp, omi- nous ‘“‘crack.’’ The Building itself seemed to tremble for an instant. Then the bathers discovered a long, wide and irregular fissure in one of the big French plate mirrors. ‘All were instantly awe-stricken,” said Mrs. Lyon. in describing the scene. They viewed the opening in the glass with terror. Laughter ceased. Not a soul could speak for a few moments— it seemed an age. Finally there Avas a woman's hurried exit from the bath.

The initial tests of the vehicle were recently held at Paris on the roads and in the Seine. On land the machine attained a speed of 55 miles an hour, and then, with- out the slightest preparation or altera- lion, it ran into the water and headed up the Seine at 18 knots an hour. “M. Ravaillier’s new car is just as safe in the water as it is on land,” said Mr, “rater, who intends to prove the truth of his assertion by driving the car him- self from the Battery to Staten Island, and thence across the bay to Coney Island. “It has solved for many of us the prob- lem of owning a yacht and an automo- hile at the same time,” he continued, ‘and it will surely take the place of the present type of motor car, whicn is good for dry land only.

The action of the Boar of Managers indicates that the broken mirror superstition is strong enouvi: with a majority of the club to make it advisable to get new quarters. “What Chicago needs most,” said Mrs. Lyon, in commenting on the “hotel club’’ project of the Woman's Athleti- Club, “is an exclusive club for women which at the same time shall be a hotei.

ee ee ee Latest Invention in Motor Cars Equally at Home on Land or Water—Valuable as War Machine. “My first trip, which will be made some time in July, will be along Broad- way and up Riverside Drive, back through Central Park to the lake, across the lake, and thence to Fifth ave- nue, to Battery Park and across the bay to Staten Island, returt ing by sea route to Coney Island and back to New York through Prospect Park. “Apart from its attractiveness as a pleasure vehicle, it will have an almost incalculable value as a war machine The French Government has already recognized that, and is preparing to ex- periment wita several] types of the an:.- phibious motor car adapted to military needs. French military engineers have foreseen that the possession of any con- veyance which can take to the water when roads are not available will give them a tremendous advantage over other bodies of troops not similarly equipped. I should add that the Ravaiilier car has already been patented here and in every foreign country. “But it is as an improvement on the present type of motor car that the hew —_—— ee amphibious automobile will appeal most directly to the average resident of New York. M. Ravaillier has given us the most novel practical contrivance ever invented. For instance, you may make an engagement to meet your friends off Sandy Hook, if you like, and then travel by land in less than half the time it took you to sail there. The entire round trip is made in one vehicle. “A trip through Hell Gate via Long Island Sound is also within the possi- bilities of this new craft, for the strong tide rushing through Hell Gate wil) have no effect on this machine, which has the power to drive the carriage through the water at sufficient speed to overcome any tidal conditions. “You may go to Boston by water and return by road, or cross the Sound and take half of the journey on Long Island roads and a part of it in Connecticut. These are only a few of the practical possibilities presented by the new car. There are hundreds of others which owners of Ravalilliere cars will soon be figuring out for themselves.’ Mr. Crater appears in “Whos Who" as a lawyer and financier. A short giance at his business career should convince anyone that he will not hesi- tate to drive his car over the Battery wall and down to Staten and Coney is- lands when the rioment arrives to do so.

at will serve one good purpose after all,” continued Mrs. Lyon, ‘‘for it will se- cure a new and finer home for the or- ganization, and undoubtedly bring back into the fold the deserters who are pos- sessed of the seven years’ bad lick fear. The fine new clubhouse will surely win them.” The idea of forming a woman's athilet- ic club in Chicago originated at a din- ner given at the home of Mrs. P. D. Armour, widow of the great meat pack- er, May 26, 1898. Mrs. Lyon was there and suggested that it would be pleasant to have an exclusive club where women could meet, talk, swim, swing on the trapeze, or play billiards and pool, bowl, ete. Her views met with instant favor. The guests then selected a list of 120 names out of the Blue Book and invited as many women to attend a meeting with a view to organizing such a club. The meeting was held at the Auditort- um. But the club expertenced what some regarded as a hoodoo at the very start. Instead of 1200 women respond- ing to the invitations sent out, 13, un- ae ee nee ee ee

He was admitted to the bar, and is now a member of the bar in the states of New York, California, Colorado and the District of Columbia, and has also been admitted to practice in the Supreme Court of the United States. Although Mr. Crater is only 3% years old he has been seven times president of national and State banks. The Ravaillier car combines qualifications of a yacht with those of a dry-land automobile. It is made with an auto-canoe hull, having on its sides four carriage springs, provided so as to suspend it on two axies, to which the wheels are fixed. The front wheels are solid. They are used for steering on water and on land, and are put in motion by a flywheel inside the body of the car. The rear wheels, which are ca- pable of being taken to pleces, are aiso solid. While the car is traveling in wa- ter the rear wheels are intended to re- main inert, but they can be operated with an undershot wheel attachment if desired. The automobile runs direct from dry land into the water just as naturally as a duck does. No change in the mechan- jem is required. A sloping bank or in- clined plane ts needed, of course, for ¢n- tering and leaving the water. the St. Louis

Amid the clash of arms, come the strains of the wedding march, and those who were the bitter- est of enemies are suddenly unit- ed by the bonds of matrimony. That is what they are saying in Kentucky today, where every- body is hoping that the terrible feud which has cast so much dis- credit upon the state may now be terminated. People had thought that it would only end when one or the other side was wiped out, but now it is claimed that it may end in a characteristic Kentucky fashion with a toast to a beauti- ful woman.

QUIET wedding was that of For the bride was of Hargis blood, the bridegroor ef the blood of the Cock- Tis. This man and this woman are from the two warring factions of the bitterest, bloodiest and most deadly of eli the bitter, bloody and deadly feuds the Kentucky mountain country has ever known. It is a feud that has raged in unbridled and uncontrollable | passion for a full half-century; a feud that has claimed its dead by hundreds, that has covered the hills of “Bloody ‘Breathitt” with countless unmarked @raves and that, In point of years, has @utranked any war of recorded his- tory. It is a feud that, from tts terribie be- ginning down to the present day. has recognized no tie of love or friendship, given no quarter, thougnt and dreamed of nothing but complete and pitiless ex. termination From the first tracic mo. ment to the iast, the fargis-Cockri}) feud factions have known but one pur- pose, one motive, one hope—each to wir the other utterly from the face of the And now a Cockrill has married «4 the very ding day circumstances or th Were big with tragic portent.

The air was charged, quivering, elec- tric, with unknown menace. A _ false move in the progrews or the trial, ill-judged word, would have precipitated bloodshed.

Was Cupid napping? Or sorbed from the Kentrcky mountain something of the feud spirit and grown bloodthirsty? Or was he wiser and more far-seeing than appears upon his chub- by, innocent has he ab- air face? There are those who say that out of this ieve-union of a man with a maid will come an end of the long, long Strife—that the great feud is ever. And there are others who shake their heads in sore perplexity, knowing what the feud has meant. Never, say these doubting ones, were the bonds of young love put to greater Strain than this~ love may know: for earth knows no passion so and implacable as the feud. Anger, jealousy, frenzy intense passion of drunken clouds of the pride, but airy and com- pared with the fathomiless enmity of the mountain feud. —~these are passing emo- tion, unsubstantial, as “War may rage ‘uriously for a time: but then comes peace. The feud spirit descends from father to son, and from son to son, knowing no relenting,. no truce, no ether emotion than hate. It is insanity—blind, unreasoning, unfeeling insanity Did Cupid know these things? ask the wiseacres, Was he playing a mad prank? The marriage was a pure love match: the girl exquisitely beautiful, the man handsome and strong and able. Yes, the doubters will admit al! that. But, they insist, has Cupid thought of the Strain which the coming years wil} put upon this love? In the days of soft and gentie ecstasy all may be well, agree these grave for». casters.

“Rationalists”’ Christ Cured the Sick, Raised the Dead and Set Laws of Nature at Defiance, But Now Prof. R.J.Ryle Says “Expla- nations’ Do Not Explain and That Nobody Can Perform These Wonders Today ---What St. Say ENERO CHRIST TURNING THE WATER INTO WINE AT THE WEDDING FEAST Have Told How Louis Authorities OR almost 20 centuries the skeptics, the scoffers and the critics have been finding fault with the Gospel story of the Divine Miracles. Ever since Christ’s own day these miracles have bad to stand the strain of all sorts of ‘‘tests,’’ wise and foolish. No other*part of the Bible has had such a searching ‘“trying out’’ by all manner of rules and measures. The hardest strain of all has come within the last century, since the birth of modern science. The learned men of science have been pitiless critics, fighting hard with ‘‘facts’’ and stub- born ‘‘wiscoveries.’’ Fifty years or so ago some of these scholars made a great commotion, declaring that the whole Gospel story was destroyed and wiped away, simply because it could not pos- sibly be reconciled ‘‘with modern scientific knowledge.’ And now is the world coming at last, in this enlightened twentieth century, to accept these miracles, with simple faith, as nothing less than divine? One of the great scholars of the day, himself a lifelong inves- tigator of the subject of the mir- acles, now at last sums the re- sults of his patient inquiry in the plain statement that all the labored, careful ‘‘explanations’’ of the analysts and the critics, who have sought to prove the power of Jesus merely a human power, utterly fail to explain. [f the story of the Gospels is to be accepted as historically true, thea the great miracles them- seives must be accepted as proof that the wondrous power that Christ showed in his ministry amongst men was more than hu- man—that it was Divine, and nothing else. HIS scholar who mak®s.4hese as- tounding assertions is R. J. Ryle, M.A... M. D., and the striking statement of his conclusions is pub- lished in the Hibbert Journal of Lon- don. In these remarkable words he PAGE SIX. indicates the drift of his thought: “If the dropsy which was cured was real dropsy, and the withered arm was a real withered arm; if the blind old men were not the subjects of hysteria, and the sick folk who were laid in the streets were not all neurotics, then we can no longer accept the works of healing as historical and reject the so- called cosmical miracles. One could rejuvenate at a word a of atrophied nerve might bring the wasting of a fig-tree in a moment: and it would be rash to say that he might not command the winds and the Waves, or raise the dead to life.’’ Not Christ’s-teachings, but His mirac- ulous works have been throughout the centuries a stumbling block in the wav of acceptance of the Gospels. Even in Christ's own day, with His miracles before their eyes, the learned Hebrew doctors sought to “expiain.”’ “He hath a devil!’ they cried. trying to account to themselves for what He wrought by saying that He worke . net with the power of God, but with the powers of Darkness—with the dread evils of Hell's black wizardry. “¥e see the works that I do,” Christ said; and they did not dispute the works. But when he said that these works were not his own, but the Fath- ers, they would have stoned him for a blasphemer. Through all the years the learned who strand about doctors have been trying to “explain.” Once, a half century or so ago, weary of this hopeless task, the leaders of the “rational’’ school found refuge in declaring that the Gospels themselves were but myths, fictitious and false, and fit only to be thrown aside and disregarded. But since that day the proofs of scholarly investigation have been of- fered, bit by bit, each tending to show that ‘‘this record is true.’’ Today the historical accuracy of the _ essential parts of the Gospel narrative seems established so firmly that it must be accepted, if other ancient historical rec- ords are to be accepted. So say schol- ars. Then what of the Divine Miracles? Students of this later day have kept on trying to ‘“‘explain.”’ ‘““Mesmerism,” say some. ‘‘Ghrist was u hypnotist. The powers of hypnotism can do many of the things that Christ did. Hypnotism the explanation. ’ ‘Faith healing,’ say others. ‘Mind cure. The power of mind over the body. Nothing could be simpler, when it is once understood.’’ Those who hold this view are not all mere faddists. Some of them are care- ful students, thorough scholars. Prof. Estlin Carpenter in his ‘First Three Gospels’’ says: “The real force which worked the patient’s cure dwelt in his own mind; the power of Jesus lay in the potency of his personality to evoke this force.’’ This has been the popular view of late amongst those who call themselves “liberals.”’ The way is popular because it is easy. The world workers, “control"’ just is full of miracle with “suggestion,” and what not. These know how it is done, and the Gospel! story is no mystery to them. Disease is but a “state of mind,”’ and healing has to do only with the forces which mays make the sick man think himself wel! This does not satisfy Dr. Ryle today is working He Says: “Let us suppose that a medical reader were asked to cast his over the Gespel of St. Mark, and to notice any details in that gospel which might taken to throw light upon the question as to what the acts of healing really were. Let us further suppose that such a reader is justified in assuming an amount of historical foundation in the Stories of the miracles of healing which is at least not wholly incomparable with that which is supposed to beleng to the best accredited parts of the teaching. eye be “At the outset such a reader could not fail to struck by one remarkable fact, namely, that if the record is worth anything as history, these works of healmg represent, not merely occasion- al occurrences, not tsolated instances, but a continuous and habitual activity. Whether we draw our conclusions from the course of the narrative itself, or whether we accept it as a fair inference from the impressjons which the con- temporaries of Jesus formed about him, we cannot well admit that he healed the sick without also admitting that this healing was but a part of the or- dinary routine work which he felt him- self called uyen to do. “But if thie is admitted, then we can- not for a moment suppose that the cases were one end all cases of faith-healing. it is impossible to imagine that ma- terial for the Yaith-healer Was scat- be ED TO |:XPLAIN THE /° mt »

Mrs. MeMillan was undaunted. The expedition returned bearing heavy burdens of trophies of the hunt, and a large share of these was taken by the plucky woman.

Mrs. McMillan wrote: “In sight of the promised land of Abyssinia.

Beyond this no boats could go. From this point in her diary, Mrs. McMillan’s story is concerned with the fortunes of the overland caravan to which she was joined. The adventurers went mounted upon muleback, headed toward the mountains.

Neither he nor his four-footed friends minded their presence in the least. They ran from their holes without a trace of fear as long as their big protector kept on fiddling. One man suggested to Ty- ler that he turn his powers to account— to hire out and rid houses of rodents. “That would be interfering with the rats’ home life,’ he retorted. “J guess a rat must live somewhere, and after he’s gone to the trouble of locating a desirable place and digging out his own front door and such and settled down to raise his family and educate them, I'm not going to come along and upset all his plans: I'll play for them and entertain them, for I iike to see them dance. But I wont harm a rat, and the rats know it.’’ That's just where the matter stands now. Tyler hasn't the slightest objec- tion to showing off his fats, but he won't let a soul harm as much as one of their whiskers.

It was the astounding resemblance be- tween the two baby brothers, who were and are so much alike that the oft- quoted expression “As like as two fades into insignificance in an effort to describe the similarity of face and form which exists between Charles and George. “Worse than this, through a strange accident which happened when they were babies, neither one knows what his name is today.

At an early age the two babies were taken to the church to be christened. One was called George and the other Charles. It was at the minister’s sug- gestion, after he had nearly baptised one of the twins twice, that the par- ents put some sort of &@ mark on the little ones’ clothes so as to avoid cal}- ing Charles George and George Charles. Mrs. Langmaid adopted the sugges- tion, and at once strung a necklace of gold beads around little Charles’ neck, to his delight and George’s envy. Both the babies, however, s00n grew used to the beads, and when Charles was tired of goo-gooing about them he would go to sleep and George would fondle the ornament on his brother’s neck. It was all very nice, and avoided lots of confy- sion, for there could be no mistaking the babies while the beads were in evyi- dence. One day, however, a dreadful thing happened. The babies were playing in the nursery. Mrs. Landmaid had left the room and started to return with her husband, who had come home. They entered the room, where the twins were crawling around the floor. On the carpet they. saw something which caused Mr. Langmaid to exclaim. “Well, I'll be ——!"" and Mrs. Langmaid to rush forward with a cry of horror.

All the family was brought in, but one after the other was obliged to admit himself beaten. No one could pick out Charley from Georgie. But the mother would not submit.

It was a puzzle that no human being could = solve.

. RR ” Im Peres PEAK the name of “Carrie Kingsbury” to a dweller in Kingsbury Bace, and he be- comes an excited man. And there- .by hangs a tale. | Shocked Boston kickéd Macmon- ’ nies’ “Baccaante” out of town and drove ‘$ to the safe refuge of the Metr’ Alitan Museum, in New York. Tip J and again Anthony Comstock ary his disciples in emug “purity” YAve tearfully pleaded that the Poised Diana, standing naked and unashamed before the eyes of men on the tower of Madison Square Gar- den, might be given at least the pro- tection of a balbriggan unionsuit. Both communities have had their sensibilities wrought upon by the flagrant indecencies of the “high art reformers” until nobody knows what damage has been done to pub- lic morals by this perpetual drizzle of suggestion. Well, chill little old Boston and hot little old New York have no patent on that sort of thing. Good old Missouri, too, has her “high art” troubles. Very lately, while tl e State was in labor with “reform,” industriously contriving “lids” for this, that and the other thing of evil oinen, and strenuously striving to keep those various “lids” on straight, “high art” was constrained to step down from her pedestal, take her place ‘in line with the rest and abase her- self before a motley crowd of self- appointed censors. Only by the skin of their teeth did the nudes in % St. Louis Art Museum escape a yessing.” But that isn’t all. The Museuin wdes can be kept under cover, so nat the visitor takes the burden of responsibility upon himself if he drops in to take a look around. He’s had his warning, and the reformers can wash their hands of him. But Carrie is a very different roposition. She isn’t so easily to be ‘nked. Carrie, the agitators in- t, really ought to have a “‘lid.” What? You don’t know Carrie? Carrie Kingsbury? The small, slen- der girl, with the sun-burned com- plexion, who. lives out yonder at the entrance to Kingsbury Place? Why, where have you been, all this time? She’s an awfully nice girl, is Car- rie—pretty and quiet-mannered, and as wwell-behaved as anybody could ask. Faithful, too, attending strict- iy to the thing she’s doing, and do- ing it just as well as she knows how. And she’s altogether natural, be- neeSeaUED tides, without a shred of affecta- won about her. Right there’s the trouble; there n'ta sete of anything about her, fat ean see. She isn't . 4in' dontentplation4+ tich would help some. That's the won why the sensitive folk shy her as they do, and insist _ that she ought to have at least a “lid” on. And they object to her, too, on ac- count of her calling, or her profes- sion, or her occupation, whatever you want to call it. She’s a dancing girl. It seems mighty harsh and un- just to reproach her with that, though, for she can’t help it. She was “built that way” right from the start, and it would be very hard in- or deed for her to learn a new trade at. this time of life. Nobody has ever breathed a word reflecting in any way upon Carrie’s morals. There’s absolutely no ground for any such thing. The only fair reason anyone could have for a com- plaint is that she is, if anything, a trifle too cold and unsociable. she’s made of bronze, Carrie is; and she has taken up just about the most conspicuous place she could find, anywhere in her neighborhood, to do her dancing—a post between the massive white marble pillars that mark the entrance to Kingsbury Place. If you want to go out and see ner, you can’t miss her, partic- ularly if it happens to be a nice, bright, sunny day; for then, stand- ing among the dazzling sunlit mar- ble, she appears in fine relief. If ever she bore any other name than “Carrie Kingsbury,” it has been forgotten in the vears that have passed since she first took up her stand and began her dance. The story of how she came to be chris- tened with her stage name is all American. In that day riding was very popu- lar in St. Louis, and the suburban roads leading to the “beauty spots” were much frequented. There was a company of “good fellows” who, starting in the saddle from their AS ~ ~ . 7 \ a , Ne Nene YY pas Letepth t i abs GH TE RS ¥E # PRESS: various homes, fell into the habit of assembling at this beautiful gate- way and continuing their ride from this rendezvous together—a lively jolly crowd.

Those jolly horsemen are not the only visite «she has received; have been countless others. The “reformers” have looked upon her, of course—with the highest and best motives in the world, and for: the sake of knowing just what it was that they trying to “reform.” Some of these folk have gone a second time, to make sure that the first impression was right. a “high art reformer,’ it doesn’t do to be careless about these details of knowledge, or you run the risk of making yourself ridiculous. So there have been scores and hundreds of “reformers” at Carrie’s dancinz feet. Artists, too, go to see her, and hun- dreds of other simple-minded peo- ple of all stations and ranks—honest lovers of beautiful things, who can see no earthly harm in enjoying beauty wherever they find it, and who come away innocently unaware of the awful moral injury they must have suffered in Carrie’s presence. Indeed, some of them are even fool- ish enough to feel that they somehow got benefit from this meet- ing -with an .artist’s ideal. And there have been thousands of mere sightseers, from St. Louis and elsewhere, who have gone, with no there were If vou’re _taught them to restrain have ure: object at all except to thing out of the ordinary T.i.ese people are affected in many Some them like it, and some of them don’t; some are tickled to death, and others are scandalized. horrified—which proves of course, except that there’s plenty of room for a wide difference of opin- ion.

Not that Aunt Mary sees any ter- rible evil in the pretty bronze fig- but she’s surprised and puz- zled and doesn’t quite know what to make of her sensations. Carrie seems different, somehow—unconventional and indifferent to public opinion and all that. Besides, Carrie’s notions of honest “specs, coats leeve, at ba hag oe a eS x & * a aS they found pretty Carrie fitted with a “lid’—a most gorgeous “lid,” in the very extreme of a late fashion—a huge pink “picture hat,” towering with feathers, flaming with gay masses of ribbon and lace and flow- ers—one of the sort of hats that pos- itively won’t take “no” for an an- swer. This hat was a “creation,” and no mistake; and set jauntily aslant on Carrie’s daintily poised head, it made an effect that could be neard for miles and miles. Nor was that all, for the daring adventurers who had given her this decoration had encased her lithe limbs in a pair of wide, ruffled, flap- ping garments. Truly, Carrie was a “sight.” Rumor whispered that the light- minded students at Washington University played this prank., And it wasn’t the first time.

In many towns in England’s African possession, recently hue-and-cry has been made against the custom of the natives, who persisted in going about the streets, clad only in tropical sunlight and a cigarette. Time and again these simple people have been induced by the : and time and again these reforms have been black figures proved to be far more indecent than the nude forms. The pink tights and fleshings of the burlesque or the comedy chorus have become commonplace, every-day, with “reformers” 9 in unaccustomed “bib and tucker almost free of criticism. its ample, loose-flowing breadth, dress are not at all like the notions the girls out home, and Aunt Mary is not quite sure but that the old way is best. Some of the visitors come from afar. Texans bringing cattle to the stockyards and whiling away a day or two in the big town, where there are “folks,” before hiking back to the cow country, merchants from out beyond, come in to buy new stocks: miners from the Yukon country on a “spending trip,” who stand gazing upward At Carrie’s bronze shapeliness, and wondering how long it will be before “high art” strikes the Klondike. Tom, Dick of and Harry, with thetr sis.ers, their cousins and their aunts, drop in from everywhere on a holiday and go out to see Carrie; for her fame is spreading far end wide. it must not be thought that Carrie has been left all these years to pur- sue the even tenor of her way un- disturbed. She's had a peck of trouble in her time, with and conditions of men and women, “reformers” and otherwise. There have been plenty of attempts to at a “lid” on Carrie. On last April Foo!’s all sorts * According to report, Carrie’s first. appearance in costume, years &go, gave her a skirt; just a plain, every- day skirt, which hung from her slen- der waist and lay in full piles about her small feet. It was too large for her: but it served its purpose of concealment. A well-meaning “high art reformer” put the skirt on her— not for decorative purposes at all, but in the interest of morality. That started it, and there has been no end. Since that day Carrie has cppeared, at one time or anothei, in every article of female attire that you can find advertised by the de- partment stores, even including the “straight front” corset, the “dress form” and tne new half-hose. Will Carrie stay where she Is, or will she have to go? Nobody seems to be quite sure. The dwellers in Kingsbury Place have threatened more than once to take her down, for the notoriety she has brought pon them is annoying. They know “she’s all right; they would have nc rouble at all with her, if the reform: ers would only let her alone, But there’s the rub. Every once ip while the spirit of “reform” break: loose and makes a lot of disagreeable talk. The Missouri “high art re former” is a man who likes to be “shown,” but he's inclined to {insist

De wild beasts got so fond of him dat de bears used to run foot races to see which could git in front of his gun foist. When de eagle boid sailin’ up tn de sky sees Daniel Boone wid his trusty rifle he says: “Don't shoot, Dan; I'll . Bang OW Some MORE! ( Jan, Boone r\ STAGE MONEY! BAH! GIT OUT OF My vay, CAT!

One day he t’inks he sees his chance an’ beats it, but dey was after him quicker’n you could say “Jack Robinson.” Alas! Daniel Boone had not been livin’ on breakfast food nor doin’ dose physical culture stunte which makes you strong an’ causes you to live for- ever; also he was a eater of meat; so his wind gives out after 18 miles an’ he etops an’ cocks his pistol an’ makes ready to sell his life as dearly as possible. | 6 £ wish I could see James K.
