BROTHER HERE T0 SEARCH FOR MISSING POORHOUSE DOCTOR Thomas E.; Barber Says Assault Two Yeats Ago Injured Phy- Sician’s Mind. The police search for Dr. G. B. Barber, the missing Poorhouse surgeon, was in- stilled with new life Tuesday when Thomas E. Barber ofr Cincinnati, a brother, arrived in St. Louis to aid the police. John Barber of Moselle, Mo., Dr. Barber’s father, has offered a reward of $100. According to Thomas Barber, his brother was assaulted In the brickyards at Cheltenham two years ago by a ne-

a brick. The blow, it-is feared, has caused Dr. Barber to suffer temporary mental -abberation. One year to the very day after the assault, Thomas Bar- ber says, the missing man suffered a mental collapse. LAST CHANCE TO MARRY IS JONE Walter T. Fields and Miss Grace Gifford Wait Too Long. Walter T. Fields of Mexico, Mo., and Miss Grace Gifford of Sturgeon, Mo., missed their one chance to get a mar- riage license in East St. Louis by not applying Tuesday morning. They applied Monday and were re- fused because the Clerk did not think Miss Gifford old enough to marry with- out her mother’s consent. The young people sent a telegram to the mother, Mrs. Mary Gifford, and sat about the Relay Depot the rest of the day, eat- ing peanuts and popcorn and waiting for an answer. The reply, directed to the Clerk, was received by wife Tuesday morning. It told him to issue the license. They did not come, but at noon a woman ap- peared who said she was Fields’ sister. She said he was only 18 years old, and that the family would not consent to his marriage. Then the Clerk decided not to issue the license if the pair should return. SKYSCRAPER’S NEIGHBOR SUES Charles Clark Would Enjoin Broad- way and Olive Building. The construction of the Third Na- tional Bank skyscraper at the south- west corner of Broadway and Olive street resulted in litigation Tuesday. Charlies Clark, who owns the bulldi adjoining, at 213-15 North Broadway, sued for $5000 damages and asked an injunction against the Monetary Real- ty and Building Co., which constructed the skyscraper. , Clark charges that projections have been constructed on the bank building which have injured his structure, and that more are being planned. He does not state the nature of the projections. He asks that the builders be compelled to take them down and restrained from constructing more of them. \ SPEEDER FINED DOLLAR A MILE Thomas Neat Pays $25 for Turning Roulevard Into Race Course.

DENIES SHE’ IS — ONE

Michael Murtaugh Gave His Money to ‘‘Fiancee” to Pay Off Mortgage.

A well-dresse. woman who gave hier name as Mrs. Marian Henson and said she lived at 1625 Menard street, was ar- rested as she left the office of the Post- ispatch Tuesday. She is held at the Four Courts pending an investigation into the story told by Michael Murtaugh of 6837 Cozzens avenue, who says that he was swindled out of $90 a month ago by a woman he met through a matrimonial advertisement. Immediately after the transaction, which cost him $9. Murtaugh caled at police headquarters and made com- plaint. vertisement in the Sunday Post-Dis- patch of Aug. 18, which read as fol- lows: “Respectable, refined widow of ob, but not stylish, vill marry man —— will pay off a mortgage of $225 on her farm,’’ Answers were to be sent to a box number at the Post-Dispatch. Murtaugh Auswers “Ad.” Murtaugh said that he answered the advertisement and that a woman called on him later. He said she was tall and slender, had auburn hair and two gold teeth in front. She gave her name 4s Esther V. Jennings and said she had come from Xenia, O., where Ahe mort- gaged farm was located. She said she Was employed as a telephone girl and had an aunt living in Kimmswick, Mo. Murtaugh said that the woman, who seemed to be anout 40 years old, called to see him several tingses and their court- ship progressed rapidly. They arranged to be married, he said, and he gave her $90 Aug. 31, the arrangement being that she should return to her home in Ohio to adjust the mortgage and-that--she would then come back to Si. Louis and they would be married. She did not re- turn when expected and Murtaugh com- plained to ilie wolice. Detectives Finan and Keaney were de- tailed to the case. They came to the Post-Dispatch and after a talk with the manager of the Want Ad Department of the paper a trap was set for the ad- vertiser. The detectives remained on guard at the office of the Post-Dispatch for two weeks, but the woman did not call for her mail again though there were answers for her in the box. At 11 a. m. Tuesday a woman called at .the. office of the Post-Dispatch and presented a card entitling her to letters addressed ‘R 61."’ The Want Ad manager was notified and he pressed a button which warned Detectives Finan and Keaney, who were near the front door... The woman did not wait for all her mail, but told the clerk that she was in a hurry, as she had to catch a train, and left the office. Detec- tive Finan followed her. The detectives spoke to her and when he noticed that she stromgly resembled the woman given by Murtaugh he todk her into custody. She protested at her arrest and said that the letters just given to her at the Post-Dispatch did not belong to her and that she was on her way to the Postoffice to mall them to the woman to whom they did belong. She was taken to Police Headquarters where she was questioned by Assistant Chief of Detectives McCarthy. She said that her name is Marian Henson and that she is married, but she refused to say anything about her husband. She said that she lived with her mother, Mr&. Long, at 1625 Menard street. When questioned about the letters she denied that she had caused the ad- vertisement to be inserted and she said she knew nothing about what the letters were for. She said that he had got the letters at the request of a woman she had met in a department store and who had asked that the letters be sent to an ad- dress in St. Charles, Mo. She said that she had never heard of Murtaugh and had never called on him or promised to marry him. Got a Few Letters. Only five or six of the letters ad- dressed to “‘R 61” were given to the woman. The others will be returned to the writers or sent to the dead letter office. Though many of them were mailed in St. Louis, others came from Terre Haute, Ind., Decatur, Ill, Car- roliton, Ill., East St. Louis, Quincy, UI. Etlah, Mo., and various other places. At 1627 Menard street Tuesday an elderly woman was found. She said that her name was Long and that her home was in Kirkwood. She sald that the flat was occupied by Elmer Stire and his wife and that she was Visiting them for a few days. She de- nied being any kin to Marian Hen- son, but said that Mrs. Henson oc- casionally visits the Stires and that & sister of Mrs, Stire, a Mrs. Cornelius had recently been living in the fat, but was preparing to gd to New York soon, Mra, Long denied relationship to the Stires, though neighbors say she 8 Mrs. Stire’s mother.

TAK RECEIPTS ARE $100,000 SHORT IN YEAR Big Corporations Nearly Au Lose $ Per Cent Discount City Offers.

Tightness of Money Market Is Reason Given for Heavy Arrears.

Si. Louis tax collections for Septem- ber, 1907, were more than one million dollars less than during the correspond- ing month of last vear. Out of $11,012,16 taxes now due on rroperty assessments aggregating $600,- 000,000, about one-third, or $3,538,918.72, has been paid into the city treasury. On taxes paid between Sept. 1 and % a discount of 8 per cent was allowed. But this important financial concession failed to attract the United Railways Co... against which a tax bill of nearly $300,000 has been rendered; the Laclede Casiight Co., owing $200,000, and the St. Louls Terminal Association, $200,000. Railroads Lose Interest. All of the St. Louis roads, with the exception of the Wabash, Missour! Pa- citiec and St. Louis, Iron Mountain & Southern, have also forfeited the $ per cen” discount. No taxpayer, however, is adjudged a delinquent until after Dec. 31, when he is required to pay 6 per cent on the amount in arrears. Ti:e bacxwardness of tax ‘eotections gives the city about $590,000 less warhing capitul than it had a year ago, whiie the yublic sehool and public iibrary fur.d and the Slate treasury also suffe: a joint loss of the remaining $0.606. Money Market Tight. George Nevible, chief clerk in Collector HMagerman’s office, said to a Post-Die- patch ieporter that the falling off in taxes is the direct result of. a tight money market. “The big corporations,” said he, ‘‘ai- most invariably avail themselves of tlre 8 per cent discount allowed This yenr they have. proba»iy needed considerable sums for improvement and rather than herrow it they ars utilizing their surp i reset + es. » “When money ts dear, as it is now, the oitv revenues are sufe to suffer more or iess. “‘Befere the first of the year. when the crops have becn moved and money condiiions regain their nocn:a! propor- tions, the taxpavers, big ani! en:all, will flock tu the Gollectcr’s offire.”’ TALE OF WILD BEASTS SOLVED A LABOR PROBLEM William Henry of East Alton Lured Hunters to Tear Up His Barn Floor. The most ferocious animal he had met in his entire career as a hunter was encountered by William Henry of East Alton on Ben Cooper’s farm. He chased the “‘varmint” under Cooper’s barn. Then he went to town and told the boys about it. A hunting party was organized for the following day. There was enough ar- tillefy to arm a company of infantry, and many regretted that the President had already passed down. the river. The floor of Cooper’s barn was pun- cheon, heavy logs laid close together and it had been there since the war. The hunters wrought manfully at tear- ing the logs from their ancient beds, each worker keeping his trusty rifle close at hand. Outside a ring of hunt- ers circled the building. When the logs -were out the beast had not been found. The company went away wondering. The next day it was announced at the store that Ben was putting a concrete floor in the barn, and Ben always was such a joker.

Because they could not spell the word, 205 bluecoats were deciared dilapidated mentally and ordered back to the school of instruc- tion. The word “dilapidated” is considered one of the most important in the police vocabulary. Whenever a policeman reports an accident he must state wheth- er or not the street or sidewalk wher- the accident occurred was dilapidated.

j Special to the Post-Dispatol: IOLA, Kan., Oct. 8.--The mystery which has surrounded 4 death of Miss May Sapp of Moran apparently was cleared up % day. when Samuel F. Whitlow, a married grain and feed merek : : of Moran, made a statement that he witnessed the girl’s th He declared that the girl committed suicide because of her i fatuation for him. He told his story in the presence of C. 0. linger, Sheriff: C. J. Peterson, County Attorney; J. N. Sapp, t father of the dead girl; Pinkerton detective. Coroner's jury. Whitlow said that for more than two years the girl had made life a burden for him by her unceasing attentions. Ile. suid he went to the Sapp home a week ago last Friday night to urge her for the last time to cease her unwelcome attentions, and that she made threats of suicide, which she had repeatedly made before, unless he reed. to go away with her. ‘The next thing I knew,” he said, “she made a slash with the razor to- ward her throat. I thought she was trying to scare me. She made a second slash and then screamed. She made a third cut across her throat and stag- gered pox against the fence. I grabbed toward’ her and seized her right hand. I got the razor. her threat, then I heard her mother coming from the kitchen. “I stepped over the back fence. I walked ‘south down the alley, walked west to the next street and then stopped and listened. I heard the mother scream and then I ran straight home. As I en- tered my back yard I suddenly remem- bered for the first time thet I held the razor. I washed it off in’ a bucket of water and slipped it in my pocket. I could still hear the girl's mother scream- ing and ran into the house and told my wife and family that something awful had happened. Says He Dropped Rasor. “T left the house and walked uptown to the Sapp residence. I pushed up with the crowd and dropped the razor on the ground. That is how the whole thing happened.”’ Whitlow told the officers that he and the girl had never been intimate. He is the man with whom May Sapp’s rame was connected years age when she was a pupil in the country school near Bronson, of which he was the teacher. He declared that the stories told years ago were untrue and that he has never been guilty of any improper conduct toward her. He said that he had seen her only a few times since she went to school to him, up to two years ago last August, several months after the Sapp family moved to Moran. He said that during August, 19065, the girl called. to him one day as he was passing along the street. She asked him to come over to see her that night, as she wanted to tell him something. He went and says the girl told him she loved him and couldn't live without him. Diseouraged Her Suit. He told her, he said, that he was a married man and.loved his family ard could see no reason why she should want to bother him. She continued to urge him to go away with her. He re- fused, but met her often clandestinely and tried to argue her out of her infat- uation for him. According to his story these secret meetings lasted only a few minutes night near the fence of the Sapp and continued until winter, He quit going to her fiome.

He shot at, but only wounded slightly, a large cinnamon bear, and the enraged beast was upon him before he could shoot again. President and bear clinched and rolled over and over in a death tussle. For & while neither had the better of it. .At last the President found himself upon the bear’s back, with his legs wound around the animal’s neck and his arms about his loins.

BUILT FENCE TO KEEP DOGS OUT The Wyoming Street Police Court went to the bow wows Tuesday. Nine owners of unlicensed dogs gave Judge Kleiber varied and ingenious ex- cuses for failure to obtain licenses, and he dismissed them all. It began with a complaint to the police of the Mounted District that there was an unlicensed dog near 4600 Rosa avenue. Several complaints were made by telephone, and an in- vestigation began which resulted in summons to nine dog owners, instead of one. The question of whose dog was the subject of the complaint is still unanswered. Mrs. Fred Clostemeyer of 4648 Rosa avenue held that she was not respon- sible for failure to obtain a license, be- cause the dog was not of her seeking. A stray wandered Initio her yard and she did not bave the heart to turn it away, she averred. After the _ police court summons was served on her she bought a license, and then the dog ran away. “At first I had a dog and no license, and now I've got @ license and no dog,”’ she told Judge Kleiber ruefully, and of- fered to make him a present of the li- cense. He declined to accept. Mrs. John Bretz of 4658 Rosa avenue was indignant at being haled into court. “My doggie is only so high," she said, holding her hands four inches apart. “He can’t eat food—I feed him milk. What need for a license for a doggie like that? He's just 2 months old,” Ferederick Wevman said that two strays visited his home at 4618 Rosa avenue, and that he built a fence about the place to keep them out, but that they returned and his children fed them. He appealed to Mayor Wells, and the

Mayor referred him to the City Mar- shall and the City Marshall took one of them away, he said, but left the other there. He declared he didn’t think he ought to pay for a dog he didn't want, put said he had bought license after he Was summoned to court on account of it.

Yarrow of 2647 Armand place. While the preacher was delivering his sermon Sunday the members of the congregation made good use of the mir- rors, the women and girls using them to see whether their hats were on straight, the powder properly distrilut- ed on their faces, and the men—well, that is a puzzie to know just what they did use them for. It is stated that all the men in the congregation looked at themseives through the mirrors several times dur- ing the religious exercises. The pastor had a doubie purpose in distributing the mirrors—to please and reward the Sunday school children, and to furnish the grown-ups a means to see themselves in church, But the mirrors were not all the pas- tor had to give away. Babies are not barred in his congregation—for Kev. Mr. Yarrow has three bouncing babies himself, and he is always glad to see the cooing little ones in church. Babes Looked After. =. The babies, he thought, were as much entitled to reward as the Sunday school children and grown-up foiks,~and to them he gave a pretty rattle, with the admonition to parents, however, that the rattle was not to be used until after the penediction had been pronounced.

A few weeks ago I bdbettea to the ru- mors abroad in our press regarding the reappearance in Ireland of the escaped convict, Lynchehaun, whom the British Government -vainly tried to extradite from Indiana. Lynchehaun himself now corroborates the rumors. It is difficult to know whether he teHs truth or not. He has written to the Mayo News a letter, dated from Buffalo, in which he affirms that he light-heartedly revisited Ireland and his jown home, although ‘under a life-sentence by English law. | He says he came specially to see his _“dear.old father and mother.” His greatest trouble-turing the visit. was; he suys, his brother’s dog, Who immediately recognized him and which he had dif- ficulty in sha''ng off when leaving. During the visit he met two policemen bringing a ‘prisoner to Castlebar Jail. : He paid the fine to t‘.e sergeant and gave the prisoner 40 cents to take him home. He afterwards challenged the sergeant to wrestle him for $5, but the sergeant declined He says three men named Calvey, from Inisbeggle, Achille, were present at the challenge. Was Looking for Trouble. Lynchehaun states that he made an inflammatory speech in Belfast for the police, posing as one who had struck, and that at the corner of the Queen's and Main roads he got up a row. — He says he searched: Liverpool and Manchester for a certain informer, but could not find him. His guide in Man- chester, one Joe Macnamara, did not know him. Lychehaun, by his own ac- witnessed a great naval pageant visiting every one of the 14 ships of war then present. He shook magazine, afterwards getting ‘‘a foo!’s pardon.” Then, he says, he traveled to Europe, jand describes some exploits in Germany, where he got out of a difficulty by stat- ing that he was a sailor taking a sod ‘ot German turf to America, Insane on the Increase, the past half-century. The fact that a Nast number of “innocent’’ people, or idiots, were not formerly, though they . now are, registered as insane, in part accounts for the vastly increased num- bers recently returned. Stilt; however, that does not account for the total in- crease. With the advancement of so-called “civilization” in all countries, insanity is increasing. This is so in Ireland as else- where. Also, the excessive use of bad- ~~ 7 OA. ar peir tse emteninmniacenll Real success comes to the man or woman who stands squarely on two feet— with mind and body in nerves that don’t fail when needed. Condemned Man Writes Paper of His Tour or Island and His Meeting With the Police ‘Birth Rate and Insanity Increase. 4 ly prepared tea in Ireland, many agree, accounts to some extent for the increase in the numbers of our insane. the registered number of insane was 9980 and in 1901 25,050, or one to every 179 of the population. In 1851 the entire insane of Belfast, County Antrim, County Down and Car- rickfergus was 3380, while the Jast re- turn gave the number for Belfast alone at 1150, County Antrim about 550 and County Down 600, making a total of 1970. lrish Birth Rate Leads. The Irish Registrar-General’'s Blue Book for 1906 shows that although the English marriage rate is three times that of Ireland, the birth rate of the former is only slightly greater. Rough- ly, five Irish marriages produce 23 chil- dren, but 15 English marriages result in only 27 children. Infants appear to be better cared for in Ireland than in any other part of the British sles. Ireland’s infant mor- tality (under 12 months) was 93 per 1000 births, while Scotland shows 116 and England 133. A rapid increase of population would take place ‘in Ireland but for the ex- cessive annual drain of emigration. Last year the births exceeded the deaths by 20,109, but the tide of emigration carried away 35,344 persons, and so the Regis- trar-General, in his report, cuts down the present estimated population by 6235. Yet the volume of emigration has been appreciably diminishing during the last decade. Marriages have been increas- ing in number, the birth rate has also been growing higher, while the death rate is diminishing. Isle Leads in Tuberculosis.

BERLIN, O: ft. cause of his very development,’’ sies Dr. eminent of German physiologists. —"“Man will fall, be- prophe- Emil Koenig, one of the mogt “He will fall to rise no more; fall to revert to what he was before he became lord of creation.”’ Dr. Koenig, widely recoguized as an published pamphlet which takes the darkest view of the future of the human man. He says there is abundant evidence to prove that man has reached his highest devel- opment and is on the eve of reversion to his original type, or at least to some tye far inferior to the existing one. “Human life and its conditions are so eiaborate now that the human organs have become more. specialized, more sensitive and consequently more liable to disease,’’ writes the physiologist. ‘‘So these super-sensitive, easily diseased or- gans must deteriorate and wiih the de- teriorization of its organs must come the degeneration of the race.”’ ' Cancer a Great Danger. Koenig points to the enormous in- crease of cancer as a prominent and present result of this deterioration. He says cancer probably will be the plague from which the coming lower man wii! suffer most. He avers that there can be no real doubt that cancer Is spread- ing rapidly and the quickly increasing number of cases is directly attributable to modern man’s complex life. The learned physiologist declares, too, that statistics show heart disease, in all its forms, to be increasing. The pressure of blood on the walls of man:s. arteries and veins is increasing. The result is that the walls of human blood vessels are growing hard, ‘‘charring up” and their elasticity is diminishing; authority, has a startling so that if we go on leading our present: full lives we will find in another genera- tion or so that our blood vessels will be bursting or cracking. Human Stomachs Giving Out. Equally disheartening is Koenig's out- look for man's stomach and his teeth. His stomach is growing feebler, losin, its power to assimilate food. “Who among us can boast of having a perfectly healthy stomach?’ he asks sadly. As for teeth, the Berlin physiologigt believes that in a comparatively short period man will be toothless. This, with the deterioration of his body, will in- finitely decrease his pleasure in Hite. Koenig admits that there may we @ rem- nant of the race who will still find life worth living. But the great majority of men in cultivated states will be sunk in bodily pain and misery. Suicide will be the commonest event in these days to ‘come. ‘“‘Men and women are steering toward suicide now, long. before the worst is at their doors,’’ says this prophet of ill, “What will it be when the dark days come which are inevitable?’ —— i On - _ Cy | LANGE CHINA’.

Haggard men, Wwan-eyed and weak women and immature and emaciated children were taken from factories some years ago by the society and shipped away, more than 2500 being transported the first year. As the ghetto was grad- ually extended .by the Jews, coming from abroad, aS many as could be per- suaded to give up their drudgery were removed, and most of these now own farms and are happy and prosperous, according to officers of the society. A. R. Levy, corresponding secretary, was the founder of the society in 1888, since which time it has been unceasing- ly engaged in finding homes for Jews, not only those who are wasting their lives in the smoke and toils of Chicago, but also of New York and other large cities. Morris Weil, the president, de- clares the success of the movement is becoming more pronounced each year, and that prospective emigrants from Russia are getting in touch with the so- ciety to insure their welfare in this country.

POLICE, WRECKS BEANERY ae Five Arrestéd at Revolver Point After Smashing Minnie Murphy’s Lunchroom. - CHINESE THEIR BUTT: One Pulls the Celestial’s Queue as He Eats and a General Fight Follows. Members cf the Bottoms Gang, de- spe the boasts of the police that it would be suppressed, got off its beat Monday night and went down to Minnie Murphy's and broke things up. Minnie Murphy lives at 719 Walnut street and her restaurant is at 8 South Eighth street. It will need a good deal of fixing up before she can resume busi- ness. After wrecking the restaurant the men defied the police to arrest them and a lieutenant, a sergeant and three po- licemen were compelled to draw their revolvers and threaten to shoot after they had chased six men three blocks to Eleventh and Market streets. Toney Foley of 1117 North®Twenty- first, James Haney of 4048 Lincoln ave- nue and Charles Jenkins of 2101 Biddle street were arrested there. Later, on instructions from the Central District, Beverly Brown of 8 South Eleventh street and Dallas Carey, who refused to give an address, were ar- rested at Jefferson avenue and Olive Street. Police Boasted Too Soon. It has been the boast of the Manches- ter Avenue Police that the Bottoms Gang has been routed from the Jeffer- son avenue and Olive street neighbor- hood. Chief Creecy, who named Toney Foley as the leadcr of the Bottoms Gang, said ‘hat Foley and his followers would find that St. Louis was not big enough for them when the police got on their trail. For the stated purpose of breaking up the gang, he transferred Capt. Gaffney from the Dayton Street to the Man- chester Avenue District, because, the Chief" said, Gaffney had driven the gang from its former rendezvous at Jefferson and Franklin avenues. Then the gang bobbed up at Jeffer- son avenue and Olive street, and the valiant Gaffney was aggain called upon » “deliver the goods.” Minnie Murphy’s restaurant is a small by two, buildings occupied by Chinese in the “Hop Alley” district. Its furnishings are a range, a coffee a long counter and dozen high The front is of glass. Koley There at 11 p. m. Toney Foley and five of his followers m. Joseph Hickman, the manager, was in charge. The only other person there when the men entered was a Chinese. Foley and his companions sandwiches. While Hickman was filling the order one of the men pulled the cue of the Chinese. There was a cry of pain, then one of rage and the Chinese jumped from his stool and struck at the man who had wantonly hurt him. For five minutes the men fought all over the room. All joined in and the battle was carried behind the counter, where the glassware was. Everything breakable was reduced to bits, including two large panes of glass in the front window. Chairs were broken and the coffee urn was upset. Chinese Calls for Help. Lee Young, the Chinese, ran out and called for help and a riot call was turned in. A wagonload of policemen | got there just in time to see the men leave the restaurant and run west on Market street. Ijeut. Hess and four of his men fol- lowed on foot. At Eleventh street they surrounded Foley and his fleeing fol- lowers, some of whom cursed and re- yiled the policemen and dared them to arrest them. When Hess and his squad closed in with drawn revolvers two of the men | pushed their way between the policemen | and escased. The police say | Carey. | urn, ordered these were Brown and At the Central District Station Foley gaid the fight started because the Chi- nese spilled hot tea on the hand of. one of Foley's friends.

Johnson sent his son-ir-iaw, James Larsens, to get the marriage license. For a number of years Mr. Johnson has lived at 2014 Dorcas street. For — years Hanna Akeson. the bride-elect, has been his housekeeper. The children thought best that he should spend the balance of his life at the Swedish Luth- cran Old People’s Home at 2341 Fowler avenue. They thought that he would there be properly cared for. This arrangement would have, been satisfactory to Mr. Johnson, only he did not want to be separated from his old housekeeper, “We are used to each other, she and I,” he said. Then, after an interval of reflection, he added: ““‘Who would there be to take care of her?” The matter ended in an agreement that they should get married and then live at the Old People’s Home. To all concerned this was a satisfat- tory arrangement. DOG SAVES AGED MASTER NEAR DEATH FROM BULL STROUDSBURG, Pa., Oct. ».—Herbert Reicke, aged 8 years, was saved from death by a faithful dog.

It was passed by the Coun- cil without opjection, but it has not made much progress in the House, al- though its promoters have been at the City Hall urging that it be taken out of the Public Improvements Committce and put upon its passage. The Mannion brothers told a Post-Dis- passed. Picnic Proceeds.a Mystery. The House of Delegates been something minority members. it was given, or what became of the pro- ceeds, is unknown to the minority. It is equally a mystery as to why the House went to the extreme southern limits of the city to hold its picnic. Delegate Paule said that he. was vep- posed to giving away any part of the city’s property. He said the alley had been dedicated and was the property o the city, and that it would not be right for the House of Delegates to vote away the city’s property as a gift. If the Mannions want the alley vacated, Mr. Paule said, they ought to be willing to pay the city what the ground is rea- sonably worth. If the alley is vacated it will revert to the Mannions, who own property on both sides of it. The House of Delegates Committee, which made arrangements for the use of the park, was composed of “Cap” Troll, Speaker Conran, William J. Brennan, IF’. W. Priesmeyer, Fred Warner and James Gallagher, all members of the majority. RATTLESNAKE DOES NOT WARN BECAUSE IT’S NEARLY DEAF Writer Says Serpent Will Not Strike Until It Has Been Attacked. There is one reason for the continued existence of the rattlesnake in the midst of enemies who would exterminate it, for, contrary to the general bellef, the rattle rarely gives its characteristic note of warning yntil it is actually attacked. In fact, the Bharp, vibrant ring of its terminal appendance is probably design- ed more to assist this very sluggish ser- pent to obtain its food than to seund defiance or warning declares Francis Metcalfe in Outing. In the first place,

Hunters, treading cautiously upon 4 soft carpet of moss or leaves to avoid alarming game, will often step close to or over a rattler without disturbing it or receiving warning, and while many snakes are seen and killed by them, it is probable that a far greater number are passed unnoticed. All snakes are timid and would rather run than fight, and the rattler is not inviting certain destruction by advertising its whereabouts In the

Special to the Post-Dispatch. SPRINGFIELD, I1l., Oct. 8.—Sine die adjournment today of the Forty-fifth General Assembly will mean sine die for many of its members. This statc- ment made early today by Gov. Dineen indicates his determination to keep the Legisiature in session despite the bitter opposition that has developed among the leaders of both ‘houses... If*the Legislature refuses to remain in session to accomplish the many dif- ferent thhings urged in the Governor's message, which was transmitted at noon, it is doubtful if the executive will see fit to call a specia! session, preferring rath- er to call upon thé people of the State to send to the next General Assembly ~ men who will remain at work until their duty to the people is performed.

In 1901 the Manhat- tan sold its refinery to the Solar Re-in- ing Co., its oil production to the Ohio Oil -Co. and tie tank cars to the Union sank Line.

The coal was. being taken from the car when a grimy sack rolled out with defendant in a $100,000 breach of promise suit brought by Elizabeth Julla Hero, a% beautiful Greek girl of 19. He was led, it is declared, into. break- ing off his engagement with her through an amazing international diplomatic in- | trigue. Government officials of both the | United States and Nacaragua intervened | to part him from his acknowledged filan- cée and after strenuous efforts achieved their object. But Miss Hero’s family, equally proud in their warm-blooded way of their hon- or, insist that he elther marry her or pay. He must appear in the Sheriff's office before 2 o'clock today and either enter a $10,000 bond or suffer arrest. According to the story told by Miss Hero’s mother, who is now Mrs. Ca- tina Troiel, young Zelaya has been pay- ing devoted court to the girl for more than a year. Within a few months after their meet- ing. which was in June of last year, Zelaya gave a dinner in Mrs. Trolel’s home and in the presence of her whole family announced his intention of mar- rying Miss Hero. For six months or so everything went well. The young South American wrote more than 200 love letters to his fiancee, her mother says, and in many called her his “wife-to-be."’ But word of the engagement reached the diplomatic. offices of Nicaragua in this city. .

NEXT YEAR’S LABEL PARADE. While applauding the zeal and good intentions of the Million Population Club, the Post-Dis- patch must say that if the label parade is to be continued as an annual feature it should be vast- ly increased in size, originality and attractive- ness. This year’s demonstration was highly credit- able to all who took part in it, but it was not creditable to the city itself. If the parade had been fairly representative of the business inter- ests of St. Louis it would have been five times _ a8 impressive as it was and by reason of variety the interest in the affair would have been much greater. There are. some things which it is better not ; _ to deo at all than to do inadequately and one of these is an exposition of a city’s industry and commerce. Nothing less than a complete show- ‘ng can do the subject justice. © “It is to be hoped that the Million Club will tinue in'the field and that by another autumn will have awakened so much interest in the rade feature that the procession will be twen- miles long and every yard of it creditable to e metropolis of the valley. = = a | why not hold a Mississipp!

Compromise and concession are sometimes es- sential to progress in meritorious law-making, but log-rolling is not. The plan to embody the river improvement project in a comprehensive scheme for the “pres- ervation of the natural resources of the country” i. an intimation at the outset that deep water cannot be had unless its supporters unite with those of other legislative enterprises in a mag- nificent raid upon the congressional pork bar- rel. | This idea reduces what must be looked upon 3s a splendid national work to the level of an ordi- nary river and harbor grab. It is not necessary t. say to intelligent residents of the Mississippi Valley that the waterways movement is not ‘o be advanced by such means. | Unless the people of the great valleys unite upon this undertaking as the most urgent public work that now demands attention there can 'b2 no hope of success. If they do unite they will not be compelled to make log-rolling bargains with anybody. It must be confessed that the attitude of the President as expressed in his speeches is not par- ticularly encouraging. He czme West to con- sider a project which is worthy of any man’s at- tention. He treated it perfunctorily and, true to his record for sensation, he became enthusiastic over it only when he had coupled it with other grand ideas which are not immediately attainable. Fortunately for the river enterprise, there were men. at Memphis who were not carried off their feet by this vision. Messrs. Hawes of St. Louis and Lorimer of Chicago held the Committee on Resolutions to its text. ‘lue deep waterways con- vention confined its attention to deep waterways. Forestry, irrigation, swamp reclamation and the fuel supply were wisely left to take care of them- selves. | All business interests are afflicted by the ina'!- equacy of the country’s transportation facilities. Even the railways are eager for relief. There are many other problems in this connection which demand attention, and competition by water promises the solution of some of them. This is no time, then, for jockeying or for job- bery. It is a time for action with a clear and fixed purpose. We must turn from men who hope to use the people’s ills forever as subjects for preachment only and we must support with vigor all those who perceive the public need and who are courageous enough to apply the proper remedy. If we cannot enter upon this necessary public work without engaging in the most stupendous scheme of log-roiling ever suggested, the rivers may as well run low or dry until there is more eangutenment in the land. i, A Ap —_— a. a

Of course, also, it was a pitiful exhibition of impa- tience and arbitrariness in high place. Of course, furthermore, the spirit here manifested is con- trary not only to American laws, but to the Amer- ican sense of fair play. Yet there are multitudes who applaud the Pres- ident in his labored attempts to show what a really forceful man, like himself, would do if he were to control the Supreme Court of the United States.

a La - - = LETTERS FROM THE PEOPLE. No Cars in the Park. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. I see by your paper that there is q bunch wanting a track in Forest Park, to save them the trouble of walking to the Art Hall. They don’t seem to know what a park is for, or they don’t care. I think the preservation of the park is paramount to the museum and should not be defaced by street car tracks under any consideration. It is a pity that some of these people don't have these public amusements put right at their front door and a street car at their back door so they would not have to walk around. Let Mr. Seanlan have a granitoid sidewalk built from the Market street car, the same as from the en- trance at Lindell boulevard to the music stand, which is a longer walk and which thousands of people take and never grumble, because the walking is nice and even, but by. all means keep the cars out of the park.

Gas Company Charges. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. I note in this evening’s paper you repeat the state- ment that the gas company have a perpetual charter privileging them to charge $1.25 per thousand, among other things, until 1920. Please tell us, too, does it privilege them to go down the middle of a newly paved street with the trenches and when they get through just throw back loosely whatever dirt will readily go into the trench and put a few old broken brick-bats on top as paving? Does it privilege them to combine with the electric light company in re- straint of competition? Does it privilege them to charge us for air instead of gas at the same rate? Does it privilege them to knowingly and willfully install meters that they know to be fast because they are under the impression that the present meter does not record as much as they think it ought? Unscrew the little posts on yourgfixtures into which the tip sets and put a small piece of cotton batting in it and then see how your gas bill will go down ior one month, but one only, because after the next reading youll be surprised some day to see a gas company wagon drive up and install a new meter that will record as mach as the old one did. Public utility corporations have for some time comba’tted the theory that they have no right to take into ac- count, as a part of the “investment’’ on which they are privileged to earn a fair return, their fran- chises. Let us reverse the proposition. They have openly admitted that they are making as much profit at the present time as they did when they were col- lecting $1.25 per thousand (without discount). That means, therefore, that on discounted illuminating gas bills they are making at least 4 per cent and on fuel gas 35 cents per thousand. Take the total number of feet of each sold and multiply by these figures and we have the net profit per year. That amount di- vided by six or seven, with two zeros added, gives you the value of the franchise. In other words, it Is 4 fair amount of interest on such an amount, as it is 6 per cent or 7 per cent of. And then let us tax them on that valuation, plus the tangible assets, SUBSCRIBER. Newcomer Finds Power Rates High. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. Two years ago I brought a small manufacturing enterprise from a neighboring city to St. Louis. On my arrival here was fairly haunted by the Union Electric company’s solicitors, who wanted the con- tract for supplying my power and light. They sub- mitted a reasonable proposition, which I accepted, and have since paid their monthly demands promptly, My two-years’ contract is about to expire and to im- press this expiration on my mind the Union company has written me as many as three letters In one day, giving notice of withdrawals of former rates anij making the outrageous advance in rates for future service of 150 per cent. There is absolutely no justl- fication for this advancing rates. It is simply the result of absorbed competition. The cost is no great- er today, if as great, to develop and distribute elec- trical energy than it was two years ago. The con- stant advancement in the science, improvements in appliances and increased tapping of lines all tend toward cheapening the proportionate cost of pro- While I realize that my individ- ual experience or troubles may be of no concern to the public, yet it strikes me that as every industry, big or little, contributes just so much towards a realization of that “million mark,” this “hold-up® policy of the light and power monopoly is striking at the very root of St. Louis’ industrial growth. The rate for power and light is a vital matter with every manufacturer, and industries can be either attracted or driven away as the rates are reasonable or exor- bitant. When you stop to consider the great number of electric current users in St. Louis who, like my- self, are forced to pay unjust tribute to this “Caesar” you will understand the feeling of resentment now growing against the public service corporations and the discouraging effect it must certainly have with prospective industries which might otherwise be at- The small manufacturer is not justified in operating a steam power plant, therefore he is a helpless victim of this greedy power and light monopoly. The free bridge is a big thing, but in my Opinion it is of no greater importance than the giv- ing of substantial encouragement and protection to small manufacturers in the way of reasonable rates | for power and light. Present conditions here seem to call for the early appointment of that Public Utilities Commission and the small manufacturers might well “take time by the forelock” and organize an Elettric Patrons’ Protective Association for the Purpose of working out preliminaries and otherwise facilitating the proposed investigations by this commission, The public, by a united effort, is strong enough to jerk any hold-up gang out of their boots.

He trafled bear in his youth, but when he grew older he became brave enough to follow the lecture pletform.”’ The guides didn’t know this last- named beast, but they smoked their pipes in confidence of its terrors. “‘Bob’s bear story needs Bob to tell it,’ the President continued, “but he isn’t here, and I'll: rattle around in his shoes a bit.

They kept this up for a while, and the man in the tree yelled: “Why don’t ye stay in that hole, ye dang fool?’ “The bull was dashing across the hole with mad roars, and the man was bob- bing in and out desperately, but he heard the voice from the tree. “*Dang fool yerself,’ he retorted, breathlessly, ‘Thar’s a bear in this hole!’ ”’ One of the guides threw a log on the fire, an owl hooted off in the timber, and there wasn’t a nature faker within 500 miles. THE MODEST TRAVELER, The men in the Pullman smoker were talking travel. “You seem to have been around a bit,”’ said the man with the cheroot to the e!l- derly gentleman by the window. “Yes,” the traveler admitted, “but I don’t believe I’ve traveled any more than our friend with the pipe over there.” “Pshaw, I haven’t traveled much,” the man with the pipe protested. “But you're the fellow who was doing the snoring in lowcr 4 last night, aren’t you?” “Yes, I'm in lower 4.” “Then you've been on every time I ever made a trip.” SUGGESTION FOR BALLOON WEEK.

PITTSBURG GAS. From the Pittsburg (Pa.) Leader. The plea of the Philadelphia company in the quo warranto proceedings falla fay short of answering the charges of the city that the monopoly is exacting ex- tortionate prices for gas and is not giv- ing the people proper street car facill- ties. The company faces the natural gas proposition with the denial that its rates are excessive, although it does so in face of the fact that other gas com- panies operating in Pittsburg have not raised their prices and are doing a high- ly profitable business at the old price of 2 cents. In answer to the charge that the street car facilities of Pittsburg are grossly inadequate and that men, women and children are crowded into the cars like cattle, the Philadelphia company at- tempts to evade the responsibility by the subterfuge that it is not operating the street railways system. It tries fo beg off with the plea that it is only a stockholder of the railways company. This pretense is so shallow as to almost make one credulous that it would be of- fered to an Attorney-General of the State for serious consideration. Coupled with this sham plea the com- pany denies that the conditions of its street car service are as bad as paint- ed. Not a resident of Allegheny County would say they could be worse. The responsibility for the condition of the local transportation system rests upon the monopoly that is crowding its cars, to keep down the expenses and swell the dividends on its enormous watered stock. The people of Allegheny County are paying for watered stock by hang- ing on the straps. Just here it might be added that the city authorities of Pittsburg share in the responsibility for this condition of affairs. The duty of a public service corpora- tion, such as the one operating the street car system of Pittsburg, is to serve the people. This is its primary duty, and ag contended by the attorneys of the olty at the gas hearing, it is the duty of public service corporations to give the people satisfactory service, even though it greatly reduceg its profits. When it falls to do this it has violated the fundamental condition upon which it was chartered.

renee Not Dangerous. U. 8. A., In Outing Magazine P irhe uninitiated are prone to look upon the balloon as a sort of a county fair attraction, whose principal interest lies in the risk the aeronaut takes. This is a mistake. Like the automobile, the balloon re- quires an experienced pilot, and when such a one is in charge, serious or fatal accidents are never recorded. Most bal- loon clubs require all ascensions to be made under a regularly Mcensed pilot, who receives his certificate from the club only after having demonstrated his fitness. The pilot, who is willing to go up only in favorable weather and to come down at the proper time, need never endanger lives. He knows that he has only to open the valve and he can descend; he s only to throw out a handful of said and he can prevent his bajloon froin coming down, or can send it up. When he is ready to land, he picks out a favorable spot Riieds of him, lets his balloon come gradualiy down near the ground, cuts loose the anchor which stops his progress, then opens the valve agaln if necessary. When the ear touches the ground he tears out the ripping strip and the balloon stretches out on the ground, @ fat and empty bag.

In many cases they allow their ‘wives ' the “whip hand” of their own free will and pleasure; in others they are tenderly managed for their own good, and are better governed than if they themselves ruled the roost. . An English writer tells the story of a henpecked husband whose wife died, leaving him with six small children. In order that the children might be cared for properly, and also because he felt at a loss without the constant supervision ‘to which he had grown accustomed, he married a meek, gentle little Woman to whom his slightest word was'law. The result of this marriage Was that within two years his business failed and his health gave way. The constant nagging on the part of his wife, who had kept her fingers upon all his actions and advised him in everything, had been the necessary spur to keep him up to the mark and when that was exchanged for a quiet gentleness which left him jo follow, his own course, jis will power, which always had beem weak, collapsed altogether, leaving him a broken, nerveless man. That this is an extreme case none can deny; still it is cited as a fact and it at least is possible. If occasionally happens that some man sof recognized: ability, with a. wife who always has been his helpmeet, ye alwas's paid him deference and admira- tion due, suddenly, as the saying is, “loses his grip’’ wher that wifc dies: and his friends speak pityingly of his devotion to her, not understanding that she Treat be many things in this world which are worse in repute than. in ID the old masters idealize their pictures, or is it true that the eyes of |) the models who posed for the Madonnas and angels of Raphael and Boti- celli were larger and-more lustrous than the eyes of modern women? Here the eyes of women have lost something in expression and _ size. They look overworked, tired, lustreless and often hard. Not one woman in a whole multitude has that clear, calm gaze of the Madonna Gran Duca. Half the women one meets wear glasses, and I am speaking of women who do not work, as well of their sisters who must spend their days under the electric lights, poring over ledgers or typewriting machines, or behind counters in stores. The women who do not work amuse themselves, and they generally do it by sitting up very late at night and sleeping very late in the morning. Eyes need fresh air and daylight for their health’s sake and for their beauty’s sake, no less than high thinking and a ceriain kindly attitude toward the world in general. teading in moving trains is always bad, but most habitues of trains earry books and papers to while away the 20 minutes or so of transit between home and office.

But ‘Promoter May,”’ says Charley Haughton, “of Reno, Nev., either thinks the people here are “easy’’ or elsé he is simply acting as a blind for Billy Nolan. The other day he offered to bet $20,000 at even money that Nelson would defeat Gans. A man who would make such a proposition is considered a fit candidate for a lunatic asylum, Decause t> odds will be hovering around 2 or 3 to 1, with Gans favorite. When a promoter is offering hot-air purses of $25,000 without any cash de- posits comes out with the statement that he wants to wager $20,000 on one of the contestants, it certainly gives the affair a shady look. As Ben Selig puts it: “May evidently is talking ‘or Billy Nolan to boost his bum scrapper or else he is a four-flusher, who is trying to get a little free advertising. He might just as well shut up, because Gans will never fight in any club with which May is connected. Furthermore, Nolan might just as well know now that we will dic- tate the terms and that Gans will never fight under 133 pounds, ringside, and that the bulk of the purse must go to Gans if he ever wants Nelson to get a return match with Joe.” MANUAL FAVORITE FOR LEAGUE TENNIS HONORS Presence of Harle of Bonne Terre on Training School’s Team Makes It Formidable. For the first time in a number of yearz the Interscholastic League tennis cham- pionship apepars as if it would rest with some other school than either Central High or Smith Academy. The tournament will commence Saturday af- ternoon on the courts of the Triple A Club in Forest Park. The presence of Haile of Bonne Terre, Mo., who made such a splendid show- ing in the State championships on Man- val’s team is what has made the Orange and Black school the favorite for the individual and teams’ honors of the tournament.

The one run the Browns managed to score was not earned, as the only error of the game, a wild throw by Holly, re- sulted in the Browns’ single tally. With perfect support Johnny Lush would have scored a shutout, but the plucky little southpaw cannot complain of the sup- port he received during the entire game. The wisdom of Manager McAleer of the Browns was at fault when he se- lected Fred Glade to pitch the first ee Glade has not pitched’ since ] iene sim to do the right thing at the Sept.: 15, and as McAleer had four men who are pitching good ball at present, Dineen, Powell, Pelty and Bailey, the selection of either of these might have resulted in a much closer game. As it was, however, the pitcher could have defeated the Cardinals yes- terday would have had to twirl a great game. Lush was feeling himself, and no club has a license to win when he is pitching his best ball. Having the advantage of one game, Lush can take a good rest of two days, should the Car- dinals need his work that soon again. If not Lush has already earned his por- tion of the credit should the Cardinals annex the series. The feature of Lush’s work in the box is his steadiness when there are men on the bases. Yesterday the Browns had several opportunities to score runs with a hit, but Lush was there to prevent such things. Up to the time Glade had his bad in- ning tlte Cardinals were perishing in or- der, either on pop filles or weak ground- ers. When the Cardinals finally came in contact with his swift shoot they scored five runs in one inning, and only the great work of Waliace prevented the Cardinals from scoring more. who Wallace's one-hand catch of Yeager’s wild throw to catch Shaw at second af- ter he had singled was nothing short of brilliant. He caught the ball with his gloved hand and tagged the runner with the same motion. Failure to stop the throw would have allowed Lush to tally and Shaw would have scored on Dele- hanty’s triple a moment later. In an- other inning Wallace ran into left field and pulled down a Texas leaguer, mak- ing the catch with his back to the stands. Had he failed there the Car- dinals would have annexed two more runs. From a fielding acme alia the Cardi- nals’ big first baseman, Ed Konetchy, deserves much credit in defeating the Browns. His work in picking up four low throws out of the dust saved Holly, Byrne and Hostetter from as many er- rors. One of these pick-ups came when the Browns had two men on bases, Konetchy was the end man on the four double plays the Cardinals’ infield pulled eff. The Browns had two to their credit, so the fans saw six fast double plays in one game. Besides fielding a good game Bobby Byrne smushed out three hits out of - - Bad jadinnesi Shown in Send- ing Glade Iato the Box After His Long Sea- son ef Idleness. four times up and seored two runs. Jack Berry also gathered three hits, one of them comirg at a critical period. The Browns made seven hits to the Car- dirals 11. ‘lhree of the Browns’ hits were made by Niles, whese speed in going iewn to first earned him two on bunts. Evcry member of the Cardinals team deserves his portion of the credit of the game. Though Lush and Konetchy were the only ones who failed to make a hit, their work in the field makes up for the other deficiency. The second game of the series will be played at league Park this afternoon, and i govd battle should result. Me- Aleer wil select either Dineen, Pelty or Powell, and McCloskey's choice will be Karger or McGlynn. ~~ - ee On MISS H.F.

Being an expert on flying old flags, perhaps President Murphy might suggest that Comiskey claim the title as a holdover. SIR THOMAS LIPTON says the condi- tions make it impossible to compete for America’s cup on equal terms. Sir Thomas Lipton wants the American people to know that his name stands for fairness and Rae tea. ACCORDING TO > the stories printed about Clark Griffith, he is the sort of a fellow who can glory in another team’s losses without winning anything for himself. He has @ reason, though. HANK O'DAY and 4 Jack Sheridan have been chosen as umpires of the World's series. We hope we are bringing up no unpleasant thoughts by wishing them long lives. CONNIE MACK says of that 17-inning game: ‘‘We were robbed.’’ Connie for- gets himself. This is not a prize fight. THE FEAT of crawling through the eye of the reedle is a primary contortion compared to the difficulty of winning an American League pennant. THERE ARE 97 excuses for the Browns —96 about illness, accident, bad deci- sions, «tc., and one about not winning enougu games. IF IT HAD been in a blaze of glory, or even on a toboggan, Fielder Jones could have retired gracefully. It is to te hoped that under the circumstances he will be a man and stick. “OCTY” GRAHAM, “Red” Flanagan and “Germany” Schulz are candidates for football honors at Michigan.

WHEATON’S LOSS TO YALE WILL BE SERIOUS ONE! : ———— NEW HAVEN, Conn., Oct. 8—It was said at Yale infirmary today that Henry M.

INDOOR LEAGUE STARTS TONIGHT Two Games Will Be Played in the Series Every Tuesday Evening ~ at Louisiana Hall. -" The Parish indoor baseball team will inaugurate its season Tuesday night at Louisiana Hall. The league is com- sed of St. Ann’s, St. Mark’s St. eresa’s and Rocks (St. Alphonsus), the first two teams playing the first game at 8 p. m. shaip. There will be two games played every Tuesday night, except ..ov 19. when only one regular game will be ‘played. a ee ere SPLENDID FIELD STATE PLAN Weather and Course Conditions Such That Sterling Golf Will Be Necessary to Qualify. Before noon. today the advance guard of the golfers who are to take part in the State championship, which is on this afternoon over the links of the Country Club, began to arrive and dis- cussion was rife over the outcome of the day's play. It was the consensus of opinion that owing to the splendid condition of the course and the grand day that greeted the tournament that low scores would be the order of the day and that it will take some high-class golf to qualify for the championship round. A field of 4 pairs will drive off at intervals of three minutes apart, start- ing atl p. m. Thirteen entrants repre- sent the out of town element entered in the tourney. Without a single exception all of the local stars are in the tournament, and with Harry Allen, winner of the first State title in 1906; Bart Adams, con- queror of the field in 1907; Ralph Mce- Kittrick, premier golfer of the city; Harry Potter and the Stickney boys, who rank with the best; young McGill and Bond Lambert, beside a host of other sterling players, it can be seen that the list embraces the best set of chirants ever eulered In the State play. J. A. Herring, who last year qualified for the championship class but was put out in the first round of mateh play, leads the out of town men in the lists. The “foreign’’ element in the tourna- ment lends a note of uncertainty to the qualifying round, as their ability is un- known and may result in the regulating to the other classes of a number of the old-time cogitying regulars. te. ite TT. tlt ae INTERSCHOLA STIC GAMES ON GRIDIRON SATURDAY i i = The Interscholastic League's football) season has its formal opening Saturday.

The latter should be the most inter- esting struggle of them all, as both teams are evenly matched Manual hes the best team the Orange and Black has been represented by in the last four years. Homer Thomas, from Pur- due, who nas just this fall accepted the position as coach of the ergineers, took ~~ a aoor, but on the other hand, the Smith enthusiasts eay the team surpasses that of Manual to a corresponding degree. Western should give McKinley a good score and maybe even defeat the South Sides. McKinley's team has been show- ing very poor form and was badly de- feated by East St. Louls High barely a week ago. Western last “saturday romped over the Alton High School boys and, through cemparison of scorcs, they seem to have edge. Little is known, however, of the relative merits of Alton and East St. Louis.

Committee Plans Public Movement to Force Action by House of Delegates. —_———} A giant massmeeting, to urge the House of Delegates to decide as to the site of the proposed Free Bridge at least be- fore next February, when the time limit for Federal assistance in building the structure will be reached, is planned by the United Free Bridge Committee. A sub-committee was appointed at a meeting Monday afternoon in the Real Estate Exchange to perfect arrange- ments. There is a disposition on the part of friends of the Free Bridge to sink their quarrel as to whether it shall be lo- cated on the North or South Side, as their eyes are being opened to the fact that dissension among the advocates on the bridge is playing into the hands of those who oppose it. “It doesn’t matter where the bridge is,.’’ said one who at- tended the meeting. “The main thing is to have a bridge.’’ Herman W. Fay, delegate from the Twenty-fourth Ward, addressed the Tower Grove Citizens’ Association Mon- Gay night on the Free Bridge. He said the Committee on Public Improvements of the House of Delegates is delighted over the wrangles between friends of the bridge as to its site, as these afford an excuse for delay. “Nothing will be done about the bridge until Ferdinand Warner, chairman of the Public Improvements Committee, resigns or is rolled,”’ said Fay. ‘Six of the seven men on the committee are in favor of the Mullanphy site, but are afraid to report that way. They know their report can’t get enough votes in the House to be accepted,”

Many obstacles greater than that of distance have been overcome in the working out of this romance, the most difficult and almost insurmountable barrier being opposition on the part of the young man’s relatives. Mayne Godfrey is the grandson of the founder of Monticello Seminary, Alton’s famous school for young women, His is a family rich in traditions, of social standing and wealth, compared with which the SchwWallensticker fam- ily tree, with the fruit of honest pov- erty, is not a showy plant. But love is no blue book. Lived Amid Wealth. When Mayne lived in his grandfa- ther’s house, a magnificent mansion, known in Alton as the “big house on the hill,’ Emma lived at the foot of that same hill in an humble cottage. They were scarcely able to lisp each others’ names when they first met. They went to the primary school to- grether and Mayne insisted that Em- ma be invited to his birthday parties in the big house. But as the years passed things be- came different. The family of the young man looked askance at the pretty girl whose only heritage was a pair of laughing eyes, a bloom of roses in her cheeks and a fadeless de- votion to her childhood sweetheart. Mayne was sent far away into the ver that he might forget his first love. Sends for Sweetheart.

SAVES OTHERS Henry Smith’s Case Brought Authorities to Full Realiza- tion of Hospital Dangers.

IS FULL OF GERMS New Building Now Being Erected Modeled After New York Structure.

Henry Smith, who died of consump- tion, was buried in potter’s field at Edwardsville Monday, Smith was a pauper in the Poorhouse. In his death lies the subject for a sermon, for by the sacrifice of his life many lives will be saved in Madison County. Smith was brought to Edwardsville from Venice two years ago. While beating his way on a train he had slipped and the wheels passed over his left leg at the «nee. He was taken to the hospital ward at the poor farm and the limb amputated. When he was received at the hos- pital! Smith was in sound health, but his stay in the germ-laden atmosphere was sufficient to inoculate him with the white plague. Doctor Is Indignant. Dr. R. 8S. Barnsback, the chief sur- geon, declared that it was an outrage to call such a disease-laden place a hos- pital and averred that it was almost sure death for a person to remain there any length of time, as experience had shown that they almost invariably con- tracted consumption. The doctor declared the place reeked with germs, and that it was criminal to send anyone there. Smith, he said, had been condemned to death in a place which was supposed to afford the chance for life. Public indignation grew apace, and the Board of Supervisors ordered a new hospital, modeled after Roosevelt Hos- pital in New York, and equipped with the latest appliances. It is now in course of construction, and Smith, from his cot, watched the walls rising day by day, and knew that his situation had brought about the condemnation of the old hospital and the erection of one which would be a credit. Buried in Potter’s Field. But he could not live to see it fin- ished, and Monday was carted away like the other pauper dead and buried in an unmarked grave on the hillside west of the hospital.

I Smith remained a mystery to the last. It is believed that the name was not his own. He invariably refused to give any clew as to his identity, and when it Was seen that he was dying Supt. ©. H. Herman made a final effort to learn who his people were and where his home was. “It doesn’t matter,” said Smith, «nd turned his face to Me wall and died. WAR VETERAN, JEERED BY CROWD, KILLS A MAN Chased Through Streets in New York by Men and.Boys, He Felled One With Hatchet. By Leased Wire From the New York Bureau of the Post-Dispatch. NEW YORK, Oct. 8.—After having been chased up Broadway by men and boys, who tormented him, Charles Knack, a grizzled veteran of the Civil War, stood at bay at Broadway and Ex- change place lest evening and with a htchet killed James Daniell of 340 West Seventeenth street, the first man who dared approach him. Knack was res- cued by a detective as a mob was try- ing to kill him. According to eyewitnesses, Daniell, who Was watchman for a house-w reck- ing company, was not in the crowd that chased the old man and aroused him to murderous frenzy. He did, how- ever, strike Knack on the head, and in return received the blow from the hatchet that sent him reeling into the gutter, the head nearly severed from his body. Last evening shortly after 7 o’clock Knack was sitting on a bench in Battery Park, when several boys began to an- noy him. He withstood the annoyance as iong as possible and then started to run up Broadway to get away from his tormentors. ELEVENTH WARDERS AT BANQUET A. W.
