Betting on honor when the amounts, recorded or put inte the hands of a punishable under the law, according to stakeholdeg, is not a decision Wednesday in the Court o2 fFZeneral Sessions by Judge Re izers. The decision was handed down in the case cf Clyde Hill, referee at tre Pin» Billiard Academy, Sixth Pine streets. He was charged with being the custodian of a bet, and was acquitted. “It is an offense,’’ Judge Rodgers said, “to record such a bet and to tele- phone or telegraph it so that it may be recorded, or to act or custodian; but the evidence and show- no offense to bet on billiards or any other game of skill or endurance of man or beast, so long as there is no stake- holder nor record.’ “This is recarded as an important de- because it gives them wide leeway. Alfrei Jel- Uffe, manager of the billiard hall, said: “The ‘honor system’ is generally in vogue here now, not only in billiar! halls, but among bookmakers. There ar: @ great many bookmakers in town who, if they know you, will accept your bet with the understanding that no money is to be produced until] after the race is run. In this way any legal offense is avoided.” “NEGLECT OF OUR BIRDS “COSTS NATION $800,000,000 YEARLY, THIS MAN SAYS Crops Destroyed Annually by In- sects Could Be Saved, Dutcher Declares. (BY ASSOCIATED PRESS.) NEW YORK, Oct. 30.—secause of tue decrease in birds, the United States is losing yearly without protest a sum larger than the. capitalization of all the national banks in the country. This Statement was made by President Wil- liam Dutcher of the National Associa- tion of Audubon Socteties at the annuai meeting of the association here. The public, declared Mr. Dutcher, placidly allows agricultural creps valued at $800,000,000 to be annually destroyed oy insects, which destruction is entirely dug to the rapid decrease in the number

of insectivereus birds in the country. “If a million or more doliars are lost through the manageinent of a bank or other fiduciary institution,’ he said, ‘‘it creates a wave of protest throughout the entire country, yet a yearly toss equa! to the entire capitalization of the national banks of the country creates no comment whatever simply because the public does not realize what is go- ing on.’’ Mr. Dutcher said that the association Was in a position to do good work along the line of the protection of birds, but that in order to successfully carry on its work it should have a larger endow- ment fund and a far laiger membership.

After Daniel H. Dippel, a steam- boat pilot, had failed to get a divorce by giving his wife, Lena, $50 to stay away from court, he also failed to get one when she attended court. After Judge Sale had heard his story and the story of how he had paid his wife $50, tn consideration of which she signed an agreement not to appear in court against him, his petition was dismissed without any testimony be- ing offered in behalf of the wife. Mrs. Dippel kept her agreement un- til after her husband had obtained a default. Then she changed her mind, set aside and contested the case.. Dippel testified that he could not get his wife to leave her mother and sisters and live with him in a flat. He off the |! said it was not pleasant living with her folks and gave an instance of the lack of an accommodating spirit on the part of his wife's sisters. It was a cold night in January, he testified, and Dippel and his wife were sitting in the dining room. The fire was low and there was no coal. Mrs. Dippel’s sister came in and Dippel told the Court that he suggested it would be a good idea for her to bring in some coal. She did not do so. An- other sister came in and he made the same suggestion to her with the same result. He complained to his mother- in-law and she suggested that if he wanted that kind of work done he should pay for it. He also complained that he could not as much as get a button sewed on his clothes._and that he was shown no consideration whatever.

He boarded a Denverside car Mon- day night to go home, and fell asleep. When the car arrived at the end of the line the conductor awakened him. He got off and went to A. Graff's saloon, intending to take the next car back to Bast St. Louis. He bought drinks for several men ir the saloon and showed his bank roll as he paid for the drinks. He was fo.- ‘lowed outside as he left by a white man and a negro, he says. His ir- juries were dressed at St. Mary's Hos- pital and he was taken to bis home. A ea ele ment en a . IMAGINATION is a valuable asset fic club at Pittsburg, Pa., on April S, 1905, is a goood specimen of the Judge's methods of going after the corporations. In that speech he told his 475 hearers, the majority of whom were railroad men, that the tendency of the great corporations today was to defy the law and to claim full lib- erty of action unrestrained by stat- utes. This, he declared, the people ought not and would not consent to He declared that the trusts must sub- mit to national supervision, regula- tion and control just as banks and in- surance companies. He said: “We are now well into the fifteenth year since the American people start- ed out through the Sherman act and the several State anti-trust laws to destroy the so-called trusts. Some of them have voluntarily come back to the highways of the law, some have never departed from these highways, but none that I recall have been de- stroyed. What One Corporation Did. “I know one corporation that organ- ized recently under the laws of New Jersey with an authorized capital of $49,- 000,000. For seme reasons this must have looked high even to promoters, for only $10,000,000 was issued. After a little while this $10,000,000 was reduced to §2,- 000,000; whether from some scruple of the stockholders or some business expe- dient, I do not know. All I do know is that a little while after that the cor- poration landed in the bankruptcy court with asseta all told of $25,000. “How long, I ask you, my “fellow Americans, ought such a sham corpora- tion policy be tolerated? How long wil! we go on blindly, sefting upon practices such as these the great seals of our commonwealth? Are we willing as a e to go on indefinitely as aiders peo and abettors of iniquity? “Men sometimes talk of corporate re- form as Interference with industrial Itb- erty.

WHAT 1S WRONG? — Many People in St. Louis Are Asking That Question of Late. E-=-— Within the last few weeks, more peo- ple than usual have complained of fre- quent sneezing fits, tickling in the throat, stopping in the nose, — of coughing, raising of mucous, sr go in the throat and offensive breath, and have asked themselves what is the matter. The trouble isa that they are affected with catarrh, and unless immediate steps are taken to remedy their condi- tion the disease will increase and spread through the delicate mucous membrane that lines the air passages, and a chronic and serious stage of the disease will result. At the first symptoms of catarrh, Hyomei should be used. There is no other treatment like it or just as good; none that can take its place and cure 8® surely, so quickly and at so little cost. It is a scientific medicated air treatment that does not drug and de- range the stomach, but is breathed in, directly destroying all disease germs that may lurk in the nose, throat and lungs, and soothing and healing the irritated mucous membrane. We positively guarantee Hyomei, for should you buy a complete outfit, price $1.00, and be dissatisfied with results

Mrs. Hartje stoutly denies that she ever wrote Madine a letter. She con- tends that she is being harrassed by paid servants in the employ of her hus- band. Affidavits are attached to her answer stating that Madine repeatedly had been offered large sums to testify against her. Madine made a “confes- sion’’ recently, acknowleding intimacy with Mrs. Hartje. He has since gone te Ireland, where he purchased a hotel. COURT UNRAVELS WILL TANGLE Ownership of Valuable Market

~ FOOTBALL MES BY LATEST CHANGES N RADICAL RULES o% SED a.

Coach Cochems of St. Louis University Treats of 1907 Conditions “Before and After”=--Advises Drastic Penalties for Failures.

BY E. B. COCHEMS, peact St. Louis Univers! ty Football Eleven. E. B. COCHEMS.

Last year the rules of football were again changed in order to still further make the game open and spectacular. The year be- fore the the game ever enacted. Publie opinion, which was never truly eritical because un- underwent were most radical changes |

educated, so disapproved of the old, compact and close formation | style of offensive tactics that the rules committee was and onside kick were permitted under certain restrictions, The permission to pass the ball forward was considered so drastic and of such pronounced advantage to the offense that the literally | forced to make concessions to the, demand and the forward pass!

distance to be gained, which used to be five yards in three at- tempts, was changed to 19. PENALTIES TOO HEAVY. The penalty for a failure of the forward pass was likewise drastic ruling that the ball should go to the opponents on the spot from which the ball was passed. This vear, owing to the failure of the coaches and trainers throughout the country to originate plays in which the pass and onside kick were used last season, the rules committee changed the penalty from possession of the ball to a 15- yard loss on the first and second downs or attempt, and only a loss of the ball on the third down when the pass was a failure. This is where, I believe, the tee made a stupendous mistake and ile latter end of the season will surely prove my contention. Already the re- markable surprises and _ reversals f form shown by the leading Kastern and Western teams are evidence of the mis- take. Carlisle's defeat of Pennsylvania and Cornell's victory over Princeton, and the triumph of Illinois over Wis- consin by 15 to 4, right after the de- feat of 42 to 6 by Chicago, speak vol- umes. Under these conditions no team is safe from a weaker rival. It now re- Sembies a game of baseball or basket ball. OQ Should Revert to 1906. For one I am heartily in favor of abolishing the 15-yard penalty for fail- ure of the pass on the first and second downs and leaving it as last year, where failure meant possession by the oppo- nents. Moreover, the onside «ick should be limited as the pass is and not make a scramble out of what other- Wise might prove a spectacular strat- egic m .ns of advancing the bal). The greatest stricture in the new Same seems to be spelled by the word “chance."” Under the old game chance “played but a bo-peep part, and when it did show its face it presented a delignht- ful appearance. However, under the mew rules it is bobbing up and around go often that one tires of it and the whole thing will become monotonous Among all. the major sperts, football alone was a game for giants and men. There was little opportunity for chance @nd unexpected plays that could not be prepared for. It was the most scientific and mathematical exhibition of brain combined with brawn ever devised. » When a coach devetoped a play that had certain speed, weight and purpose, and | directed it against a line, it usually went | Unless the proper defense was prepared to meet it. Not For Small Men. Some will say that this was a brutal game and little men had small show against the larger. I agree with them: but still believe that under the old game little men had plenty of opportunity to play quarterback, haifback or ends. But overlooking a possible contention on this matter, I want to say that football never was intended for little men, but was devised and launched as the game for giants. Because it was the giant's game, it became predominately collegi- até and popular. College nen piay for loyalty and are willing to condition themselves and undergo the vigors of strictest Spartan training in order to win for their alma mater. Professionals never play the game. > years ago a great demand for meresopen play was aroused, not by alumni or college men, but by the molly- ‘coddies and the weaklings, Certainly the ‘crowds who attended the games did not fall off, but the strong man atig¢ andance a collexes and universities di The secre ‘of the whole matter is this: The yaic Gecline in American manhood : remarkable. There are hordes of men who can play baseball, but really few rg ean play the maniier sport of foot- The public is composed of these nd they make public opinion, and pub- opinion caused a game in which they WMioa “chance” to show their inferior article of play. “ Big Men's Sports Few. ts no other game left for the men.

The physical prop, which should be the staff on which high aims, will power and moral stamina should lean, will be taken away; trick- ery, artifice, cunning ard all evasive schemes will be substituted. It will be bred in the blood and bones that de- ceit is better than straightforward meth- ods, that chance Its surer than effort. Under old football straight tactics were employed; under this new game tricks, delays, double passes ard double crosses predominate. The neophyte iz taught to depend on these. As in the government, we have given way to the crooked methods adopted by corpora- ‘ions to corrupt legislatures, so in fvoot- ball we have yielded to the cry of the physically unfit. Faculties Cause Trouble. The most bitter opponents of the old game have proven to be small coteries cf professors ‘n the various collezes and universities. Invariably these men are puny dyspeptics and cynical. They have never enjoyed real physical exercise and know nothing of its exhilarating in- fluences. Such men as President Eiiot of Harvard pronounce the game brutal and do not know.a tackle from a half- back. Indeed it was lucky for Harvard athletics that the President of the United States spoke at the Harvard Union and in polite language denounced President Eliot as the chief mollycoddle in the country. On the other hand, we still have such robust college characters as Fresident | Hadley of Yale, who is an advocate of all beautiful, eutdoor major sports, and who highly recommends football.

IDEALS DROP THREE GAMES IN CITY TENPIN SERIES Of all the unexpected tenpin results, the defeat of the Ideals by the Cabannes Tuesday night on the DeSoto alleys was easily the greatest surprise of the present season. The Ideals were Ic@d- ing the City Tenpin League, and up te Tuesday night had a record of 15 games won and but 3 lost.

Another matter the rules committee. overlooked, it seems to me, was the’ physical proportions of the ball. They never gave it a consideration.

wt HYPOCRITES” is the big dramatic feature of next week’s offerings, coming to,.the Olym- pic Monday evening with the prestige of having been the greatest success of last season in New York. This latest work of Henry Arthur - Jones, the most skillful English play- wright of his day, is described as a re- markable example of modern playmak- ing--a tremendous play for intensity of action and for the lcgical.sequence in which strong scenes are presented in a gripping story. The problem of the righting of a grievous wrong against a young girl is its pivotal point, and the solution of this problem is“said to have been brilliantly worked out by the author, whe bitterly arraigns British “cant’’ and mock piety. Eastern critics concede that “‘The Hypocrites” is a mode! of dramatic architecture, and the Playgoing public in New York and other Eastern cities has indorsed this verdict.

He impersonates no less a personage than President Roosevelt himself—in blackface—the Chief Executive being traverstied good- humoredly in a sketch entitled “A Dull Day in the White House.’’ The scene of the sketch represents the President's private office and, again as usual, Dock- stader has devised a novelty in the way of an entrance.

Mrs. Drda and the iwa smaller children, Albert, aged lI, little Stella, aged 7, sought refuge with Martin Drda, a brother. Did Not Think of Danger. ‘Tl did not think that I might be in danger with papa,’’ Mamie told a Post- Dispatch reporter after her night of terror. ‘‘I only thought of staying with papa to keep him from killing himself, as 1 believe he Intended to ‘do. ‘Papa and I have been together gen- erally always, and I stayed because 1 knew he needed me most of all when he did not know what he was doing. ‘“T hid the guns where he could not get them and I put my arms around his neck and told hiin we didn't want to die and that no one was trying to kill him. He told me all the time that he Wus going to die and he wanted me to share the glorious end. While we were driving in the buggy I did not talk to him very much because I stayed with him every minute and when the men eame late in the night to take him away he and I were in the house alone and so I went to Edwards- ville with him. They took me to the Leland Hotel and promised me that papa would be taken care of.’’ Mamie Drda has been a constant com- panion of her father, she says, and has helped with the work about tne farm. ‘Papa thought I could help him better than a man,” the girl said proudly. ‘‘I have helped him work in the fields. We have generally always been together.’’ This courageous slip of a girl, the pride of her grateful mother and admir- ing friends, pleaded that her father should be given another trial to over- come the insanity which has rendered the loving husband and father a menace to the lives of his family. “We never had any trouble at home,” Mrs. Drda said. ‘‘My husband was al- ways good to me and the children, but he has been worried about some busi- ness lately and suddenly he became vio- lent, threatening us with all the weap- ons he could find. Mamie was the only one he clung to. She did not think of danger to herself, but stayed with her fatner and prevented harm coming to any one of us.” Wears Short Dresses. Mamie is about five feet three inches tall, weighs about one hundred = and twenty pounds and wears dresses slight- ly above her shoe tops. Her eyes are very dark, fringed with jet black lashes. Her brows are heavy and black and her hairis black and fluffy.

He made %r address in German on _ the “Spiritual Activity of Membership a Ne- cessity.”’ Story of a Shepherd, The most striking illustrations of what constituted spirituality was the story related by the speaker of the Scotch shepherd who missed two of the flock and sent his collie out into a winter it to bring the wanderers in. The dog returned with one sheep, but he was commanded to go forth again, although nearly exhausted. He returned with the last sheen, but died from wounds fre- ceived in defending it against wolves. The speaker said it was not for the practical Christian to ask why, but to Obey the call of duty. Rev. Guenther, pastor of the Memoria! M. E.

“FIRST IN EVERYTHING.” al SS BANK FALSEHOODS IN OKLAHOMA. It is said that if Indian Territory had had a Governor or ar Acting Governor action similar ‘to that taken in Oklahoma with reference to the banks would have been resorted to. Indian Territory, therefore, will have reason to felicitate itself upon its lack of meddlesome and sensational officials. There are times ap- parent.y when no government is desirable. The folly in Oklahoma did not lie so much in closing the banks for a week as it did in .the false and mischievous excuses given there- for. It is not true, as the Acting Governor of that Territory saic, that St. Louis Danks have sus- pended payments and it is not true, 1s the bank- ers of Oklahoma now say ir a public apology, that in shutting up shop the territorial banks followed the example of financial institutions in St. Louis anc elsewhere. The course pursued by the banks and bank- ers of the country generally was wisely calcu- lated to protect credit, prevent panic and as- sist legitimate commerce and industry. The misleading and sensatfonal whoop of the Acting Governor of Oklahoma, followed, as it was, by the closing of every bank in the Ter- ritory, was well devised to cause unnecessary excitement, alarm and hardship. In this section of th. country only the banks of Oklahoma hav’e closed their doors, leaving busi- ness affairg in chaos, and they took refuge behind an untruth ‘n doing so. hi i di i HOARDING MAKES HARD TIMES. Drawing deposits out of sound financial keeping and good use to hoard them in chimney corners is a miserly means of self-destruction and a means of cowardly injury upon others. Money in a bank is safer in any event than when secreted about the house, behind a loose brick in the wa!l, or in a stovepipe or a bureau drawer. When foolish depositors lose faith in banks it is harvest time for burglars and sneak thieves, and wealth is lost, burned up, borrowed or needlessly dissipated. The panic-stricken who withdraw their funds rarely have as much to put back when the flurry is over. But their chie mischief and undoing lie in the crime of stealth committed on business and in- dustry. Each unnecessury withdrawal of funds from the common supply is a secret blood-let- ting; a waste of sustenance, a withdrawal of the very vitality and support of the community. Hoarding is the starvation policy that makes hard times, tx t bankrupts business, grows cob- webs across factory doors and sends Coxey’s armies wailing through the land. It is financial suicide. | If everybody at once took his or her wealth ‘into immediate manual possession to paw over it furtively and count it, there would be a speedy ruin to every life-giving occupation. The preser“ation of confidence is the only self- preservation in a time like the present. With con- fidence on all sides the wheels of industry will continue their full revolutions, and every man may continue tu enjoy his ordinary measure of a fair prosperity.

“TT MIGHT INCRIMINATE ME.” On the ground that “it might incriminate me,” Daniel Naughton, assistant clerk of the House of Delegates, refused to answer questions by which it was sovght to connect Warner and Priesmeyer, through him, with the $500 marked bribe money found in Sam Weisman’s possession. The Court propa ly sustained Naughton's refusal on the score of constitutional immunity. ‘But while uch immunity, indulged as a check upon the inquisitorial function, arises out of the legal presumption of innocence, there is nothing. $m law or in fact to prevent the public drawing its own conclusions ,from the plea. There is _ mothing, indeed, to prevent the State from en- deavoring to establisu by other witnesses the guilt of a man who invokes his constitutional ‘privilege when questioned concerning a crime and his alleged participation therein. His cloak of privilege covers merely his re- fusal to answer; it does not preclude the State ty questioning his innocence. Otherwise courts md grand juries would be completely disarmed against guilt in any case. What the State may ask, the public, too, may formulate and does irresistibly formulate in its own mind in following the proceedings. _ The witness who invokes an arbitrary presump- tion. of innocence. who in effect challenges the be ® to disprove his innocence by other wit- ses, must know that public opinion sits in a welg the probable effects on that public opin- ee his refusal to answer questions involving rave issues of government and public morals. § cannot reasonably hope that the plain logic fs position will escape the mind of the pub- Me beyond the rail who are not only entitled to eee it, put are compelled to accept, his statement, his admission, his excuse that a truthful answer te's questions might incriminate him, ¥, 4] strangers’ club. MEN WHO SHOULD TAKE A BACK SEAT. | Delegates Warner and Priesmeyer are under in- dictment for agcepting a bribe. What is the House of Delegates going .to do about it? It is a reasonable assumption in law that a man is innocent until he has been proved guilty, and no one would propose a different rule in this case, but there is nothing in that conten- tion which relieves a man accused of crime of a decent regard for the proprieties. Evidently this is something with which War- ner and Priesmeyer are wholly unacquainted. One week from the day on which they were ar- rested and indicted they appeared on the floor of the House of Delevates 2s though nothing had happened. If the crime charged against them had been entirely aside from their official conduct the case might have been different. They charged with accepting bribe money in the House

were of Delegates and there is evidence to sustain the accusation. Even a suspicion of such a thing should require the men thus stigmatized to ab- sent themselves from their official posts. Various United States senators under indict- ment who would have ‘“cheeked it out” pending trial have been quietly from that body and they there not enough self-espect. in the House of Delegates to force similar action upon the men in notified to keep away Nave done so. accused of felony committed its very pres- ence? It is idle to look for a nice sense cf honor in Warner and Priesmeyer. They have already shown that they nave it not. Is there no mem- ber of the Hous: of Delegates who will take the responsibility of introducing a resolution sus- pending these men? » s A. — a. JOE CANNON’S QUEER FRIENDS. Illinois Republican Congressmen are beating the air and smiting their breasts in an excess of zeal for Joseph G. Cannon as a presidential candidate. They are in favor of him. Every- body is in favor of him. Then what do,these gentlemen mean by ap- pealing to the Legislature to amend the new pri- mary law so that delegates to the national con- vention may be selected by the State Convention instead of by the people at the primaries? Is the habit of the Federal crowd in Illinois of doing everything by means of a boss-ridden convention so indurated that they cannot trust the people even \.hen there appears to be unanim- ity?

Lower prices for cattle and hogs do not nec- essarily mean cheaper meats in the markets. Re- tail rates were forced up by the Beef Trust wholly irrespective of the cost of cattle in first hands. It is comparatively easy to depress the price of cattle, but cheapening the price of movsopolized meats is another matter.

Why does ‘he! not let his dining room and kitchen utensils, house, | } |

clothing, etc., rest on Sunday?—I have to work Rat and night on Saturday, so I used to gét food for Sun- day on Sunday morning. If I were in Kansas City, how could I get food for Sunday? I know Sunday is a holy day, so after church service | want to have a good dinner and some Kind of amusement, to rest. and also to forget week days happenings. I don't need to walk so many blocks as he does. because 1! must work hard on weck days, so | want to rest on Sunday. On the other hand, many people must work | on Sunday, and they will take rest on other days, as} some policemen, railroads and street care emp'oyes, etc. In case of sickness, how will Kansas City people do on Sunday? Diseases will not rest on Sunday. S.: 3. 2a

Old Folks’ and Strangers’ Clubs. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch, The recent letters published in your columns con- taining account of marriages, among elderly peop‘e, has suggested to me the advisability of forming a club |

acquaintance. people are settled in life, it is often the case and parents-in-law are ignored by children they have spent life's best efforts for. Why should not years left them who have done their duty be in quiet and comfort and the ionship gives? Also all large cities ought metropolis. I know of one conducted strictly on buSst- ness principles in London, England, which has proved itself of inestimable value to people interesied in |{s growth and welfare and financial success. MS. 8. K. B.. 4278 Gartield avenue. To Prevent Panic. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. No cause for a panic. Let every depositor in the United States, no matter how small, go at once to N's or her bank and make a deposit of all the ready cash time. It ig not the rich man that causes these flur- ries. It is the smal! depositors becoming alarmed at the failure of some speculator or plunger like Heinze, and thinks there is sure to be a panic and immediate- ly go to their banks and draw out their money, avd also tell their neighbors and friends to be careful if they have any money in the banks; they had better draw it out. So, as you see, it scatters like wild- fire and causes all banks to close. The business man in all branches is consequently turned down by the banks, making the rate of interest so high that it is impossible to do business. So they start to reduce expenses by dropping some of their hands, a [ttle later a few more, then finally closes entirely. Citl- zens, weigh this and you will find it the soliq truth, to come.

How Fashion Spoiled a Wedding, and a Comment, for the Post- Dispatch, By NIXOLA GREELEY-SMITH. a untrue to her, and they have children, wife, and receivea a photograph which struck his fancy so much that he made an appointment with the original. But when he saw her he gasped and said, “Them sleeves is too short. I want a modest wife,’ and turned away. Now she is threatening to sue him for breach of promise, and love in short sleeves has been rebuked. Is Samuel right? Are short sleeves consistent with wifely duty? To me the answer would depend entirely on the quality of the arins revealed. A pretty arm is pos- sibly Fate’s rarest gift to woman. When she possesses it. no better excuse need be offered for showing it than S ‘rite ACKLIN of Cleveland advertised for a mere perfection. There is no doubt that the short-sleeve fashion de- stroyed many masculine illusions. For arms in all their in all thelr raw-beefsteak robustness, were revealed to men GREELEY SmMitTw fan-stick fragility, who might otherwise have continued to dream of them clothed in the undulant ivory of the ideal. If Samuel Acklin’s objections to the undraped arm of his soul-sister were based on aesthetic grounds, they were well taken. But it is probable that they were founded on the more usual conception that everything which {fs beautiful is wrong. The world seems to be getting rid of this notion very slowly. Never- theless, its doom was sounded in the first puff that issued from the steamship’'s smoking stack. For where it is possible to go around the world in 60 days, to cross in a few hours from a country where a modicum of woman’s neck and shoulders may be shown, but trousers under no circumstances adorn her, to another where trousers are an imperative fashion, but where not even the tip of her nose may be unveiled to man, one is unable to preserve any very fixed ideas of, sartorial decorum. I read last week a criticism of the American girl by a Frenchman, who said she wore her bathing suit too short. Yet at French watering places one sees vomen in bathing without stockings, which would never be permitted here. These matters are all in the eye of the beholder. There was nothing the matter with the American girl’s bathing suit, but only with the Frenchman's vision. And I think the eyes ee Samuel Acklin of Cleveland probably have a sim- ilar squint. Undoubtedly, the short-sleeve fashion is going out. The arm whereon the Future sleeps—when it isn’t waking and yelling for its bottle—must once more be draped in limp linen ended by a stiff cuff. But rejoicing thereat should be in the interest of art, and not of prurient prudery. MORE HINTS FOR THE LONELIES. If They Follow This Post-Dispatch Writer's Advice They Will Cease to Be Alone. BY MAZIE MADDER. inquire how a lonely person in a strange city can find congenial companion- ship of the “right kind.’’ Here isa suggestion which I think the lonesome will find practical and effective. Get a pencil and paper, just the first time that the longing for companion- ship comes to you, or the first leisure moment when you can devote the time to the best thinking you are capable of, and write out a full, honest description of the need which you feel, and encourage yourself to desire your highest ideal, too. He who demands little receives little. Hitch your wagon to a star, as the old saying goes, look up and demand the best. With the full description of such a person as you would like to know on the paper before you, ponder over where you would be likely to find an individual of such description. ‘‘Birds of a feather,’’ you know the rest. Now ask yourself why you can’t goto the same places these other people go. If this question brings prohibitive answers, on aecount of lack of money or clothes, suggest other places to yourself. Remember this, it is possible to enjoy a very great many things with absolutely no cost, when you find the way. Some of the very best things in the world are free as the air we breathe and some of the richest treasures may be enjoyed just as fréely by the poor as by the rich. So do not despair on this one account. The next use you will have for your pencil and paper will will be to record addresses of the places you believe would interest you as they interest the people you would like to know. If you enjoy books I would suggest that you enter the Public Libra: 'y first on the list of places through which you hope to find companionship. Interest in books and magazines is a good asset for attracting intelligent coni:- parions. Reading together or talking of what each has read is an excellent common ground for getting acquainted, besides the actual pleasure which one enjoys from reading for one's own amusement. Inquire of the librarian for the names of veading or culture clubs and see if you cannot arrange to become a member. If you enjoy music, look in the ad column of the papers for teachers’ ads and musical clubs. You can make the acquaintance of others who like music easily through such organizations. The Art Museum is a treasure of some of the best works of art which can be seen any place, and it costs nothing to go there, except a climb up the hill. Scores of romances have started on the World’s Fair grounds. Who Knows what Fates may still be hovering on the old site? 167 inquire no way of making acquaintances,”’ correspondents write daily and Do not overlook the church societies. They have advanced with the times and you will find lots of jolly, wide-awake goung people who will! be glad to give you a welcome which will make you feel life is well worth living. Don't stand back and hesitate to show that you want to get acquainted. This is the very place where you can express your desire for friends, and you will have all kinds to choose from. Lay out a program of places suftable for your requirements, which you wil! enjoy, and find some way to get there, if you have to go alone. Then wear your most amiable smile and he careful to remember above everything else that you are gentleman or Indy, and a plexsant future will unfold itcelf before \ yon before you realiz@ the transformation from your erstwhile gicota.

We assume the. strongest possible moral obligation for the welfare of a child, in view of which fact it’s wel- fare should be .our first consideration. In most husbands there lingers some- thing of the romantic adolescence, of love's first bright golden hours, and the fact of his companion in that elystan period having become cognizant of his betrayal of her trust is likely to re- awaken his better impulses and render a second like offense unlikely.

“LITTLE CHURCH AROUND THE CORNER” I$ CLOSED TO ALL ELOPING COUPLES Rector Says Henceforth the Banns Must Be Published in the Old- Fashioned Way. NEW YORK, Oct. 30.—Eioping lovers and others who seek hasty or secret marriages wil] no longer find a Gretna Green in the Little Church Around the Corner, famous for tne romantic unions that have been effected there. This is the decision of the Rev. Dr. George C. Moughton, rector of the church. Dr. Houghton says that when it is possible publicity must attend any mar- riage at which he may officiate hence- terth. It is his purpose that the banns shall be published’ in the old-fashioned vay before the ceremony, so that any third person who may know that there are why it not take

Can’t Be World Power With- out Aerial Navigation, Says an Admiral.

ALREADY FAR’ BEHIND

Airships Will Never Be of Commerciai Value, It Is Contended.

By Leased Wire From the New York Bureau of the Post-Dispatch. NEW YORK, Oct. 30.—Airships wing- ' ing their way from ship to land, then passing overhead like some gigantic gull ~d ma.ting a return flight in the direc- tien whence they came, are to be part of our naval forces within the next ten. years. Ati least that's what the aeronauts. who gatnered here for their annuul con- gress say will surely come to pass. And Rear Admiral C. M. Chester in- sists that the United States Navy must te thoroughly equipped with an aerial squadron in the very near future or we ‘vill :ose our standing as a world power on the seas, “Communication with the means of wireless telegraph, Admiral, “is a wonderrul aid, but we must have airships, balloons or what- eer form of uir craft may be the most feasible to sail ashore and take obser- vations that will be of assistance to the_ navy in times of war. | “Other countries have adopted similar ineasures and the United States. must abreast of the times. The Aus- trian Navy is using the balloons to great advantage. England, Germany | and France have experimented exten- sively, but with just what results we do not know. Russtans’ Bad Aerial Aid. “During the Russo-Japanese war the! Russians had aerial aid at Viadivostok |; and sent many balloons ashore, gain- Ing valuable information while the Japanese were none the wiser.” According to Admiral Chester, and to | Rrig. Gen. Allen. neaad of tne United , States Signai Corps, the United States Government is keenly alive to the force ‘f aerial navigation as a weapon in times of war, and the next Congress will probably appropriate at least $200,000 for continuing the experiments. Kut an aerial squadron for the navy is not the only thing that is going t6 surprise | us. We are yoing to have balloons val nail carriers.

Name to Be Changed. They are going to quit calling them “halloons’’ by that time, however, for the future air cruiser will be a rakish looking craft with a cigar-shaped beak and a whirling wheel in. the place where an ordinary bird’s tail ought to wiggle. The aeroplane of the flying machine is the future roamer of the clouds. Prof. Willis Moore, head of the Uniced States Weather Bureau and president of the Aeronautical Congress, says the aeronauts have got to get back to the bird idea for navigating the alr, and the others heartily agree with him. “The aeroplane is certainly here to stay,’’ is the opinion of Prof. Moore, ‘ond in it Hes the future development ot navigating the air.
