Special to the Post-Dispatch. CHICAGO, Nov. 27.—Edward Payson Weston, the 69-year-old pedestrian, ended his tramp of 1234 miles from Port- land, Me., at 12:15 p. m. today, when he plodded up to the Federal Building amid the cheers of a throng. He left Port- land Oct. 29 at 5 p. m., thus making hig traveling time, exclusive of Sundays, 24 days, 19 hours and 15 minutes. He broke his record of # years ago by 1 day, 3 hours and 2% minutes. His former time was 26 dmys, 22 hours and 4 min- utes. The finish was a triumphal march from the Chicago Beach Hotel through the South Side boulevards, with an augmenting crowd always around and following. While the trip officially end- ed at the Federal Building, a simple, but unfortunate circumstance, and Weston’'s pride changed the reception plans at the last moment. At the Federal Building, Weston, flushed with victory, approached the Jackson boulevard entrance, used only by employes. At this door a uniformed official directed Weston to one of the other entrances. Notwithstanding that Mayor Busse, Postmaster Campbell and other city and Federal officials were awaiting his arrival, Weston thereupon asked the way to the Illinois Athletic Club, and, although he and his proces- sion passed around the Federal Build- ing, he could not be persuaded to en- ter ft. Welcomed at Club. Meanwhile, the Postmaster and Mayor waited in the Postmaster’s office to greet Weston, and finally the official reception was abandoned, The unofficial welcome t the Chicago Athletic Club, to .which eston proceeded, was most enthusias- ce. “or left the Chicago Beach Hotel at 9:52 and walked west to Drexel boule- vard and then turned north. The boule- vard was thronged with people, who cheered ‘the pedestrian lustily. Many in the crowd joined the throng, and long before he reached the downtown _ gection he was followed by thousands. e hme ee. vies oP i at Na sb Ac iw Aeaie 9 tie. 4 oe po aes ea Oa ee % oe ieee - ‘ Py es tyn would let her have a rig. hee.

The old man was fairly lifted from his feet and carried in triumph through the clubhouse by young men who have admired his efforts to break a record he set in his youth. while the voices of thousands went up within and without the bui!ding. It was 3 a. m. when Weston reached the Chicago Beach Hotel, at Fifty-first street and the lake front, amid the welcoming shouts of scores who were on hand to see him before he went to sleep. He left the Chicago Beach Hotel at 8 a. m. After crossing che State line at 1:06 he continually declined the advice of his friends to stop for the night and seek repose for today’s excitement. A committee from the Illinois Athletic Club met him at Jackson, Ind., shortly after 8 o'clock last night. He had little to say to the increasing crowds as he neared the State line, de- siring to save all his breath and strength for the final spurt of the night. After he entered the city a solid line of patrolmen marched 2% feet ahead of him, brushing the good-natured spec- tators out of the roadway.

ir HANDBOOK’ MEN Will. Not Reopen Under Judge - Wiliams’ Decision. Pool selling and handbook gambling in St. Leuis will not be revived on any large scale as the result of Judge Wil- liams’ decision, which makes convic- tions under Gov. Folk’s new law more difficult. This was the opinion expressed to Post-Dispatch reporters Wednesday” by racetrack men, as well as by officers of the law. Mark Gumberts, an old-time bookma- ker, said the decision will not keep the police from harassing pool sellers by raids to such an extent as to destroy all the profit of the game. He said that a man who would try bookmaking because of the decision would be a fool. James (‘‘Bud’’) Shannon, representa- tive in St. Louis of Chris Brockmiller, said no one could tell when the police might produce the evidence required by fudge Williams and that the likelihood of a Penitentiary sentence in case of conviction was enough to keep any man out of the business. Gov. Folk and Attorney-General Had- icy said the law was-not affected by the ruling. Circuit Attorney Sager an- nounced that prosecutions would con- tinue. Chief Creecy announced Tuesday afternoon, immediately after the deci- sion, that there would be no cessation of raids on handbooks.

DEALERS ARE WATCHED

Chicago Producers Seek to Have Markets Adhere to Their New Scale.

Keep your eye on your butcher. If he doesn’t sell meat to you at least .0 per cent cheaper than he uid a week ago he is overcharging you. You ought to get your pork chops and beef steaks cheaper than at any time in the last nine ‘years, and if you don’t you ought to know the reason. This is the declaration of the packers. Pork Chops 10 Cents. You should be able to buy for 10 cents a pound of pork chops, for which you have been paying 12% cents a pound, the packers say. A 1l5-cent round steak ought to be as big as the one for which you ‘have been paying 20 cents, and you should be able to buy a choice porterhouse steak, the $0-cent kind, for 26 cents. But packers say that the retailers, many of them, at least, are making cap- ital out of the big decline in prices and are piling up profits at the expense of the housekeeper. The word has gone forth that the local representatives of Swift & Co., Ar- mour’s, Cudahy’s, the St. Louis Dressed Beef and Provision Co. and Swartzs- child & Sulzberger must do all in their power to check this tendency on the part of retailers to force them to desist from working what is technically known as a ‘scalp’ on the consumer. Dispatches from Chicago say that the big packing companies are especially anxious to whip the retailers into line because they fear that if high prices for mea: continue the tariff on Cunacian and Mexican cattle will be removed by Congress. This would inean that meat would be cheap all the vear round and that the siles of the grest pacxing com- panies would be so materially reduced that they would be unable to pay the Marge annual dividends which havc here- tofore been enjoyed by their stock- holders. Packers Advise Butchers. “We will use our moral influenees with the retailers,”’ said thie - 1 ro-presenta- tives. of one of the big companies Wednesday. ‘‘We do not control any of the shops here, but we think we can make the retailers see thta competition inevitably will force them all in line. The people ought to have cheap meat at present wholesale prices. The butcher who sticks to the old schedule is apt to find himself without customers.’ BOYS WHO FIND $40,000 BURIED TREASURE SHOUT NEWS AND LOSE ALL OF IT One Thousand Persons Fight for Money, but Police Arrest 24 and Recover $12,000 SAN FRANCISCO, Nov. 27.—Told by an old woman that she believed there was money buried in the vacant lot at Green and .owell streets, where a lodging house had stood before the fire last year, Leon Thomas and another boy went to work with pick and shove! to find it.. They had not been digging long when they uncovered an old trunk full of gold. silver and currency. The boys shouted the nevs of their discovery to everyone within hearing distance, and within a few minutes a thousand persons were fighting for the money and carrying it away in all sorts of receptacles. The police arrested 24 persons, who had in their possession about $5000. Dozens who had made larger hauls escaped. The two boys who made the discov- ery carried off $4000, but this was con- fiscated by the police, who recovered altogether $12,000. The police estimate that the trunk had held $40,000. The money had been buried by an old woman who disappeared at the time of the earthquake.

wp ~~ “* She Was Punished ished by Senator for Following Him to Idaho. WIFE FOUGHT HER TOO:

Clutched Woman by Throat and Cried, “' et Me Kill Her.” eo nn

Special to the Post-Dispatch. WASHINGTON, Nov. 27.—Soren Chris tensen of Salt Lake City, a witness td day in the trial of Mrs. Annie M. Brad- ley, charged with the murder of former Senator Arthur Brown of Utah, testified that he was in Pocatello, Idaho, with Senator Brown on one occasiion when Mrs. Bradley appeared unexpectedly. He testified that Senator Brown chastized her for following him there. On the same day, he said, the Sena- tor’s wife appeared and engaged in a personal struggle with Mrs. Bradley, clutching her by the throat and ex- claiming: ‘‘Let me kill her.” Justice Stafford halted the trial for a moment this morning to direct the at- tention of the bailiffs to a girl, aged about 11, seated in the rear of the court- room with a gray-haired woman, evi- dently her mother. The Court directed that the woman and the child be re- quired to leave the courtroom. The tak- ing of testimony was suspended while they were ushered out. Both were un- usually well dressed and apparently were refined. Tells of Threat to Kill, Archibald Livingstone, clerk in Sen- ator Brown's office in Salt Lake, con- tinued his testimony in rebuttal at the opening of court today. He identified the railroad ticket signed by Mrs. Brad- ley, which was turned in when sh: changed her mind and came to Washing- ton instead of going to Los Angeles. He said there was nothing unusual in the appearance or manner of Mrs. Bradley on her departure from‘Salt Lake. “In the summer of 196,’ he added, in reply to the questions of the Govern- ment’s attorneys, “she came to the of- fice and we talked about Brown. She asked if I thought he would marry Wer. I said I did not, and she said: ‘He'll have to, or I'll blow his head off.’ ”’ “Mrs. Bradley, during this testimony, watched the witness intently, leaning forward at “meg to whisper to Judge Powers. As the ‘witness recalled how Mrs. Bradley “‘joliied” Ars. Brown on one or two occasions on which the Sen- ator became furious, the prisoner smile: broudly, apparently amused ovér the rec: ollections. Mrs. Brown’s Statement, | The witness was questioned concern- ing a conversation in 190%. He said he saw Mrs. Bradley in Mrs. Brown’s house, and Mrs. Brown ip her presence said she had been over to the hote! and had found Mr. Brown and Mrs. Bradley in a compromising position. She said she wanted to make a statement and wanted a witness to take it down. In a short time she sent for a_ wit- ness and the statement was made and recorded. The witness was asked regarding the conversation that took place in Sana- tor Brown's office in the summer of 1902, at the time the divorce from irs. Brown was talked of. He said Mrs Brown wanted her husband to make a statement, and Brown replied: “I will protect Mrs. Bradley so long as life is in me. I will tell Mrs. Brown to get a divorce from me or I will get one. I will state in the presence of my bitterest enemy (referring to Col. Tatlock) that I will stick to Mrs. Brad- ley as long as life lasts.” The witness said further that Mrs. Brown asked Senator Brown to sign the statement, but he refused, where- upon Mrs. Bradley said: “Arthur, sign it,” to which Brown answered: ‘Yes, Dolly, I will sign anything for you, but I will not for Madam.”’ Didn’t Promise to Wed. On cross examination by Mr. Hoo- ver, witnesses said that Brown at the conference did not say he would mar- ry Mrs. Bradley, although the state- ment quoted was the substance of his remark. The witness had been employed by the firm of Brown & Henderson from 1898 until the firm was dissolved. He is still employed in the same capac- ity by Max Brown. The conversation in which he had heard Mrs. Bradley say Mr. Brown would marry her or she would blow his head off took place in the summer of 1906, he said, He had not told her that Brown ought to marry her. He never heard Mrs. Bradley's gon called Ar- thur Brown Jr. He had heard of him only as Arthur Brown. His picture was hung in the outer room of Sen- ator Brown's office beside those of other children of Senator Brown. UNCLE SAM NOW READY TO RECALL TROOPS FROM CUB! Gen. Carlos " Garela ‘Takes

Despondent Because of Health Man Ends Life in Cellar. — Bernurd Cramer of 5142A Oregon ave- nue hanged himself Tuesday in the basement of his home by a novel meth- od. He first tied a rope to a rafter, then looped it about his neck, wound it three or found times around his hand, and then by his own strength suspended himself until he strangled to death. After arranging the death noose, Cramer kicked a box from under his feet. He was 6 feet and 2 inches tall, and his feet were within a few inches of the floor. Cramer procured a rope that had been used for fastening trunks, went into the basement while his wife was out for a few minutes, and pro- ceeded to execute himself. His grip on the rope did not relax until death. He fell dead to the floor just as a brother- in-law rushed in to cut him down. , Cramer, who was a well-to-do car- penter, had been suffering from rheu- matism for nearly a year, and was un- able to work. He had considerable property, but he worried ovet his wife and three children.

YOUNG HUSBAND Five Days of Married Life Convince Mrs. Walter Smith She Is Unhappy.

After five days of married life, fo! lowing four years of intermittent en- Bagements, Walter H. Smith reccived a letter from his wife, the genuineness of which she took the trouble to have attested by a notary public, deciaring that she loved him no longer and never wished to see or hear from him again. Smith probably will sue for divorce, .but, if he does not, he avows his in- tention of preventing Mrs. Smith from doing so, if possible, basing his defense on the letter which his wife has writ- ten him and her desertion after so brief a married life. Smith is a traveling salesman and Bays his legal residence is Evansville, Ind. He is visiting his mother at 5754 Cote Brilliante avenue. Mrs. Smith, who was Miss Mary Eliza- beth Anderscn, is living with her mother at 5971 Cote Brilliante avenue Another Man in Case. Smith declares that there is another man in the case, his rival during his courtship. This man, he says, is George W. Davis of Fezggs, Ok., to whain Mrs. Smith was engaged to be mnarried when she was not engaged to him, and often during the four years she was engaged to both. “TI met Miss Anderson in January, 1904," said Smith to a Post-Dispatch re- porter Wednesday, “and we ‘S%ecame en- gaged March 23, 1905, for the first time, after I had obtained her mother’s con- sent. During the holidays I was in- vited to the house and the engagement was formally announced to the family and the marriage set for June 12, 1906. “IT was away from the city on busi- ness and returned April 15 and stayed until the 20th, during which time I was very devoted to her. On the 20th, while we were on a car taking a ride to St. Charles, she asked me’ why I didn’t marry her then, as she was all ready to go with me to Texas. “During May I broke the ment. She asked me to come to Louls Oct. 31. She met me at the Union Station with an embrace and kisses. Dec. 22 we quarreled and the engagement was again broken. [But Jan. 14 I got a letter from her asking me to meet her downtown. She wasn’t there and I waited an hour. Then I called at her house and took all her letters with me with the intention of burning all our correspondence. . We quarre'ed and the next morning she sent for me and all our differences were settled. “She asked me if I loved her why I did not take her away, as her life at home was miserable and without me. I was to have returned to St. Louis later and then we were ot be married and l was going to ta..e her to Texas with mine. This plan was interfered with by business. “After this the months were spent in alternate lovemaking and quarreling. This sort of thing went on until Oct. 28, 1907, when I met her and-we quar- reled. It was at this meeting that she Says I threatened to take my life, Which is entirely untrue. Wednesday afternoon we went downtown, and I bought a wedding ring. Then I took her to the City Hall and we got a mar- riage licénse and went to the home of Rev. Josephus Stephan, 4139 Castleman avenue, and were married. Then I took her to my room in the Marquette Hotel, where we lived until she deserted me. (sets 85000 tor Girl's Death.

—~p = --- ~A-GOOD STORY Told By a Former Coffee Slave.

The relief which comes by leaving off coffee and using Postum Food Coffee, is so striking t Bat people like to tell others who may be in the condition they got out of. The use of Postum is on the increase in this country and the famous bever- age made from wholesome field grain has been the means of restoring (to thousands of former coffee drinkers, good digestion, steadv nerves and sound sleep. “About 18 months ago,” writes a Kah. woman, “I was a most miserable person. I am 28 years old and all my life I have been subject to headache, which seemed to get worse with each attack bo that about every week I woul have a spell that asin me up two days. “Whenever I would yo out anywhere I'l come home with a spell and then would not eat anything-——just drink coffee. I had nervous chills and my memory was getting very bad. “My friends thought I would not five long, and I was little more than a_ skeleton. At last a friend advised me_ to quit. coffee and use Postum. It seemed silly to think toffee was thie trouble but I am thankful I tried it out, for IT am now in perfect health, have no headaches or dizzy spells, no more nervous chills and my nerves are strong and steady. My mind is clear and my memory all right, in fact I am like a different person. “Constipation was one of my old troubles, I had to take something all the time. Now T am never bothered this way and everyone remarks how well 1 am looking. I am getting fleshy and am glad to tell others that Postum has done it all for me. “A few times when out of Postum, I have returned to coffee and every time I'd go to bed with a raging head- ache, so that’s proof that coffee wes at the bottom of my trouble.” Name given by Postum Co..

A Voice From The Stomach A Bloodless Fight Between a Tablet and a Habit—The Tablet Won At the age of 22, Clarence had good digestion. He had gastric juice that could dissolve doughnuts and turn ap- ple skina into good blood corpuscies, At the age of 24 he began to be pro- fuse about the waist and lean back- wards. He also began to cultivate sev- eral chins. In his new-found pride he began to think it his duty to gorge himself, on everything, the good and the bad, for appetite feeds on appetite -and every good thing is abused. His pictures showel that he took on weight after he put his collar on. At the age of 26 Clarence married and went to boarding. On top of all this, he attended oyster suppers and wine dinners, which reduced the size of his collar from 16% to 15. Wi still abiding faith in the strength of his stomach he gulped his meals, and chewed them afterwards. At the age of 28 Clarence began to hear an inward voice—-a warning from the stomach. After each meal he would feel bloated—and belching became a habit. He began to be a light eater—and a heavy thinker. He tried to think out a eure, for now he would sit down at his meals absolutely disgusted at the thought or sight of anything to eat. He would “sit down at his meals without the trace of an appetite, just because it was time to eat. He would often feel a gnawing, ur- satisfied “still-hungry” feeling in his stomach, even. after he was through eating, whether his meal was weil cooked or not And he suffered a good many other things with his stomach that he could not explain, but that made him grouchy, miserable, out-’o-sorts and generally sour on everybody and every- thing. Finally he read an account, some- thing like this, about the truly won- derful results obtained from Stuart’s Dyspepsia Tablets in all cases of Stom- ach.trouble, dyspepsia, and so on. He bought a 50¢ box atthe drug store anJ took the whole box. When he started, he had little faith—and less appetite. When he finished he had absolute faith -—and more appetite, and more good cheer.

Not Best Because Largest, But Larg:st Because Best F, A, Stuart Co., 150 Stuart Bldg., Mar- shall, Mich, HOWS DEAL Ot BRYAN AND FOLK Kansas City Post by Attack on Nebraskan Reveals Animus.

Although details of their recent con- ference at Lincoln have been guarded closely by William J. Bryan and Gov. Folk, the attitude of the Kansas City Post, Senator Stone's personal Missour! organ, bears out in the minds of close political observers what is known to De the true story of the Bryan-Folk confer- ence. It ig known among politicians that Bryan urged Gov. Folk to enter the senatorial campaign, although not once during the interview, it said, was Senator Stone's name mentione 1]. Within a few days after the Folk meeting at Lincoln, the Kansas City Post printed an attack on Mr. Bryan and his candidacy, declaring tha. he would not do for President. The Post also printed many columns commendatory of William J. Stone, and it continues to do so. Sued for $10,000, The other owners associated in the management of the Times, of which H. J. Groves, Stone’s warm friend, was anaging editor, were the Metropolitan Street Railway Co., the Burlington Rail- road Co., Judge Chrisman of Jackson County and A. A. Lesuer, former Secre- tary of State. Stone and his corporation friends were not known in the owner- ship until the paper was sold to William R. Nelson, when Stone sued Chrisman for $10,000, invested in the paper, which he did not get back. Stone Angry at Nebraskan, Now that the Post has begun to be- labor Bryan, the politicians are certain that Senator Stone is angry at the Ne- braskan and would like to apply a dam- per to his presidential. ambitions. Bryan and Stone have been friends for many years. Frequently Bryan has made speeches in Missouri in behalf of Stone or Stone men who were condi- dates for the Legislature. He did so a year ago, but the result was that the Stone candidates, notwith- standing Bryan’s efforts, were defeat- ed. This, according to political observ- ers, indicated to Bryan that Stone had lost strength and that an alliance with him no longer was desirable. Conse- quently, the overtures to Folk. CLAIMS BODY Of "MYSTERY WOMAN" Mrs. Smith’s Brother-in-law Investi- gates Crime on Eve of Es- tate Division. is Bryan-

NEW Y¢ RK. pov. 27.—The body of Mrs. Grace Smith, the “woman of mys- tery,”’ who murdered her husband and then killed herself at New Rochelle, will be buried beside that of her hus- band in Baltimore. This has been decided by Smith's broth- er,whois here from Baltimore to look inte the mystery which still surrounds the shooting. No claim has been put forth for the woman's body, and but for this decision it would finelly be laid to rest in the potter's field. The fact that the time ing when the estate of the Bulkeley of Hartford, to which the woman always had claimed to the principal heir, was about to be divided is thought to have had something to do with her sudden determination to end her life and that of her husband. The executors of the Bulkeley estate will divide the property tomorrow and with that division the falsitv of 4 Mrs. Smith's claims must have become know? to her: friends DO YOUR CHRISTMAS SHOPPING EARLY AND AVOID THE RUSH Goods Are Cheaper Now and You Will Not Have to Impose Upon Tired Clerks. League is ¢o-oper- retail stores of St. Louis get shoppers to do their Christmas early. The league created a sentiment in favor of early shopping last year, and it resulted in much good that the proprictors of the big de- tartment stores solicited the organiza- ‘ion to continue the work this season. The purpose of early shopping is to relleve the salespeople, wrappers and delivery boys from overwork in the holiday season. Thousands of shoppers put off buying until the very last week before Christmas, and then flock into the stores. This not only causes con- gestion in the stores, but throws so much work on the employes at they are greatly fatigued in body and cian before the rush season closes. The league urges women to visit the stores not only early in the season, but early in the Week, and early in the day. Goods bought carly in the day are delivered in daylight, while pur- chases made late in the afternoon must be delivered at night by some tired boy, who has already worked many hours overtime. Christnms presents may be bought as well now as later. Prices are usually higher arouml Christmas time, and the woman who does he: shopping now probably will save quite a lIittle money. By doing their shopping early in the day the women will be able to return home in time to avoid the street car crowds. Was approach- late W. H. be The Consumers’ ating with the to buying sO

Smoke pouring through the corridors and elevator shafts, and fire engines rattling on the streets, caused a fire scare at the Planters Hotel at 1:45 a. m. Wednesday. Most of the °€5 guests were asleep at the time. Ten or twelve persons rushed from their rooms to the lobby on hearing the noise and scenting the smoke. Two of them were women. One of the ip ao fled to the lobby from her room the third floor clad in a kimona. The other’ woman was accompanied by her husband. They hur- ried to the ground floor from their apartment several floors above. The husband explained to Night Clerk Wal- ton that his wife is a sufferer from heart disease a i had been through one fire. Walton had little difficulty in con- vincing the men that there was no dan- ger from the firc. The man from the upper floor took his -wife back with him, after learning the situation, but the woman from the third floor sat in the reception room, clad in her kimona, for a half hour before deciding to re- turn to her apartment. Grounded Wires the Cause. The blaze was remarkable for the great volume of smoke and the smal! amount of damage it produced. It was caused by the grounding of electric light wires. The switchboard whence the lights tn the dining room are oper- ated is located on the second, or parlor, floor, west of the large dining room. The switchboard is fitted in a pine wood framcwork. The wires set this wood- work ablaze and the flames spread from the switchboard to the door leading into the dining room. Night Clerk Richard Walton and Night Watchman Joseph Curley were stand- ing at the clerk’s desk when the fire started. When they smelled the smcke they thought it came from the pantry, as it was about the hour that the bak- ers start preparing bread for breakfast. But they learned it was a fire when the smoke commerced pouring into the lob- hy by way of the dining rooms. Miss Hannah Sachs, night telephone operator, at once gave a atiil alarm, The firemen who responded quickly «x- tinguished the blaze with their babcocks, Manager Cochran says the damage was about §$25.

The river project was advanced modestly, yet firmly and courageously, for it was known to be worthy and it certainly was logical. The National Government has jurisdiction over navi- gable rivers and it must be looked to for their betterment. But no sooner is the idea unfolded than om- niscient and omnipresent statesmanship smiles pityingly and replies in effect: “Of course we shall have river improvement, and we shall have it everywhere from Killikat Creek to the Ever- gestions as to river improvement are narrow and short sighted. Go to. We shall have an organi- zation which shall not only deepen the rivers but Conserve all of the Natural Resources of the United States as well.” While Conserving the Natural Resources of the United States would be a good thing, it is to be remembered that most of these resources have now passed into private hands and that the Con- servation which is likely to receive most favor persons and corporations already on the scene .|and hopefully awaiting just such Conservation as that which is now in mind. The natural resources of the United States are almost illimitable. Through the recklessness of Government some of them have been depleted and through the more profitable employment of capital and labor elsewhere some of them have not been developed at all, but what have they to do with the navigation of our rivers? We spend a matter of $5,000,000 now and then for a battleship. Does someone insist at the same time that we appropriate $50,000,000 for land- scape gardening in Yellowstone Park? Is the army appropriation bill held up every year to help out with fertilizers the buoyant individuals who may be attempting ..to reclaim the Bad Lands of Dakota or the déserts of Arizona? Hardly. The Conservation .f the Resources of the United States was left to private enterprise, where most of it properly belongs, until the Mis- sissippi Valley manifested an earnest purpose in favor of deep water, and then Conservation tcok such a foothold in Washington that nothing could stop it. It would Conserve the rivers; it would Conserve the forests; it would Conserve the arid lands; it would Conserve the mines; it would Conserve the fuel supply; it would Conserve everything within the earth and above the earth and in the waters that roll over the earth. The Mississippi Valley is paying for the Panama Canal, from which it will gain no commercial benefit unless its rivers shall be deepened. This new rage for the Conservation of things in the great West did not exist when the canal bill was pending. It has cong into iife in the nicx of time to smother to death a splendid and a necessary national work, and probably that is what it was intended to do. Instead of lavishing public money upon schemes to Conserve the Natural Resources of the United States, the congressmen from the val- ley commonwealths should insist first upon Con- serving the Rights and Interests of the People of the United States by digging her deep through Dixie. . & = + The details of the Clinton (Ill.) bark robbery: have a curiously familiar sound.

INITIATING DAVIS. WASHINGTON, D. U.— President Roosevelt began today the initiation of Jeff Davis, the new United States Sena- tor from Arkansas. The arrival of Da- vis has been awaited here with some im- patience by the old-timers. They have been eager to start with him over the hurdles, especially since they read of his intention to show Washington where to nead tn. Mr. Davis called at the White House ‘his morning and asked that a hench- man be given an important Federal ap- pointment. Following his custom, the President at once proposed some contest of skill or chance, knowing very well that an old squirrel hunter like Davis woud choose rifles. “You’re on,’ said Davis. shoot at a mark with rifles.’’ “Done,” the President answered. Mr. Roosevelt’ got his’ favorite bear gun, and they repaired to the barn. “What'll we shoot at?” asked Davis, looking around for a tin can or a bottle. “We'll shoot at this knothole in the barn door,”’ said the President. They stepped off a hundred paces, and the President tendered the gun. “After you, Senator,” he said. Davis took three shots. The first one was two inches high, the second rin - med the hole, and the third was a half inch to the left. While the Senator was eximinirg tie target, Mr. Roosevelt hastily fixed three more cartridges and slipped thei in th: magazine of the rifle. “Shoot!”” exclaimed Davis, stepping aside in full confidence that a mere bear hunter would never beat him. The President fired carefully three times. Davis was already at the mark when the merksman came up. *“B’gosh,”’ said Davis, “if yuh didn’t shoot through ev'ry time!’’ True, there were no more marks around the knot-hole. The President grinned, and was still grinning when they parted. After Davis had gone, Mr. Roosevelt laughed until Loeb had to hit him on the back. The joke was that the President had pulled the bullets out of his three cart- ridges. “We wil CORNFIELD LAWYERS. Bryan certainly has become con- He is even pointing out th obvious.

Nothingtelse in our national trend has been more apparent than the wid- ening breach between the cornfield and the skyscraper lawyers. The one has finally become a destructionist exactly opposed to the other, who is a con- structionist. The cornfield lawyer is de- vising law; the skyscraper lawyer is sounding it for blow-holes and guiding his client through these, if, haply, any are found. The ultimate destiny of this country awaits the result of thig issue If the cornfield lawyers can devise laws impervious to the cunning of the sky- scraper lawyers, the, Republic will be saved. Upon the other hand, if tha cunning of the cornfield lawyers does not suffice, the Republic will go where Mr Rockefeller, sir. Harriman and other zealots have been trying to put it. It is simply a question of whether the people or the corporations have en- gaged the better counsel.

GEORGIA COLLARD. From the Atlanta Georgian. With no intention whatever of throw- ing certain boasters of Houston, Wash- ington, Richmond, Charleston and Nash- ville into frenzy; with no desire to cx- cite envy of Georgia’s superiority in food products; with no purpose of invit- ing or engaging in controversy, since it is a matter that does not admit of it, we mention this delectable dish. Nowhere else on the habitable globe does the long-legged collard grow to such perfection. And the poorest man in Georgia can and does enjoy it. A dish to tempt an epicure, it is not de- nied to all save the rich ag is the Po- tomac shad or the Buffalo Bayou bass. Driving along the country roads one} sees the collard growing luxuriantly in the garden of the rich planter and of his humble negro tenant. How happy the idea, too, that collards are not ir their prime until frost has come and made them sweet and tender! Just about the time frost lies white everywhere, the air is keen and hog-kill- ing weather is on hand, the collard is ready for the pot. And cooked witr hog jowl, backbone or spare ribs it is something to tempt the appetite of any- body on earth! Those who have wearied of bony shad. tasteless bass and rancid whale are in- vited to come to Atlanta, and we will have prepared a\great pot of collards and hog jowl, with hoecake and but- termilk on the side.

With the steadily increasing demand for American-made ice cream en route to and from the Orient, an industry has sprung up in California which fur- nishes to nearly all the ships of the trans-Pacific lines ice cream in large blocks sufficient in quantity and frozen solidity to last the entire trip to Hong- kong and back to San Francisco again. To cater to this demand a plant has been constructed in which the ice cream is frozen without the aid of ice applied in the usual way. The sub- stitute is cold brine, which circulates around the freezing tanks after coming into contact with ammonia pipes. By this process ice cream can be turned out at the rate of a batch évery eight minutes. The capacity of the plant is 1000 gallons per day. THE PROPER MOTTO. From the Hartford Courant, If we are goilvg to put any sentirgent on our coined gold, why not go to the scriptures and take “The Love of Mone} is the Root of All Evil.” A GUOQUE. From the Chicago Evening Post. We should like to reouque those wom- en of Dubuge who are forcing their hus- bands to learn to cuque.

BIBLE REVISION. From the Philadelphia Record. The announcement made at Rome that the Pope has formally authorized an- other revision of the Vulgate, or St. Jerome’s Latin version of the Bible. is sure to attract attention by reason of the open and liberal attitude assymed py the head of the church. The work 3s intrusted to the most eminent Catholic theologians, headed by Abbot Gasquet, of the English Benedictines. The re- searches are to be carried out in ail parts of the world. The abbot will se- lect his‘assistants next week, and it fs his desire to have among them an American. He is not restricted to Cath- olics in his selection. The Pope insists that the work be done in the most scien- tific way in order to convince Catholics as well as non-Catholics that this is a genuine attempt to discover the true basis of the text of St. Jerome. The attitude of the Vatican in ap- pealing to the scrutiny of all Christian scholarship is in effect a challenge to scientific research and discussion. It is a movement toward greater unity and greater tolerance. FROM TEXAS. From the Austin Statesman. A land barren of Christian influences is the land that is wholly uninviting to ali persons who believe in the highest civilization and the tideals of iife. Christianity is ennobling and the man who fails to appreciate this very commonplace truth falls short of reach- ing that loftiest of human destinies upon this old earth of ours. The highest and the mightiest type of hu- man nature is well exemplified in the man or the woman who is sanctified of God and consecrated to His holy cause.

GIANTS IN CONGRESS. From the Wichita Eagle. The coming Congress will contiin three men who will contest for the honor of being proclaimed the tallest member.

The former has a height of six feet six inch- es, but he is round-shouldered and is topped by Barchfield with his six fect three inches. Anthony is six feet four inches. The friends of Sulloway have been urging him to take exercise so as to regain an erect carriage. If he should succeed he would be a towering figure n the next Congress.

Today veer ee ee ee eee dy os ’ and WAT PRS “is STILL ON UPTURN) Fractional Advance Scored Under Rather Moderate Trade— Range Narrow. CHICAGO GRAIN MARKETS IN BRIEF CHICAGO, Nov. 27.—There was an active trade in wheat. The market opened easy on poor response by Bu- ropean markets to the advances here yesterday and liberal receipts in the Northwest, but rallied on an advance in the price of corn. The market was strong the rest of the day. The high point for May was 108%. The mar- ket reacted somewhat from the high point owing to profit taking and closed firm, with May 4%@%c higher at $1.03\% @$1.038%. Corn was active and strong on a 2c advance in hogs and firm = cables. There was active covering by shorts. The high point for May was S5%c. The market continued strong and closed near the top. May was up 1@l%e at 55%c. There was a fairly active trade in oats. The market was strong, influ- enced chiefly by the strength in corn.

Business in the local wheat miarket was on a very moderate scale Wednes- duy, but a firm price range prevailed throughout and the close was \c to %c higher for the day. Liverpool cables closed %d to %d higher, Paris closed %c to 14%c lower on wheat and 1%c to Mc lower on flour, Antwerp wheat closed Sc to 1%c lower, Berlin wheat 1%c lower and Budapest wheat Ic lower. Foreign markets showed a poor re- sponse to our advance of Tuesday, and this caused an easier opening, the rainy weather in the winter belt which was considered favorable, also: encour- aging the easier tone. The movement of wheat to the Northwestern markets was liberal, but some rough weather and, in some parts snow, was reported in sections of that region and Canada, and bullish estimates on the crop of the latter country were made. Duluth re- ported a strong demand for cash wheat from the East, traders on the Minneap- olis Exchange were reported to be fight- ing for cash wheat, and the cash de- mand at Chicago was much in excess of the supply. Stocks in the Northwest again increased, but they are still light, and a good demand from millers and from Eastern exporters continues, with cfferings light. The export demand was slow, foreigners being slow to follow out advances, and comparatively little wheat was worked for abroad, but all offerings are finding buyers. The move- ment of winter wheat continues rather heavy, and stocks again showed small increases generally. There was practically no pressure to sell in the early and middle parts of the session, and shorts being inclined to cover on the strength in corn, prices were bid up steadily, an advance of %c being scored Towards the Jast of the session trad- ing was dull, and some scattered offer- ings found a poor demand, and a frac- tional sag from the high point oc- curred. A partial recovery was made just before the close, however, which ; was firm, with a good demand, and only slightly below the high point, the range, however being narrow. Decem- ber wheat had offerings “4c lower at the start, but was bid up to a fraction neat. ae the first sale being %c an to 94%c, and closed at 9%%c bid. May wheat closed %c lower at 102c, was of- fered at 101%c, advanced to 103c, sagged = 102%c, advanced to 108c, sold ‘down to , was bid for at 102%c, declined to iootee’ pavenaedl to 102%c, declin to 102c, was bid up to 102%c, and closed at 102%@102%c sellers. July wheat was in- active, and opened with bids %c higher at 961Kc, was bid up to %%%c, was of- fered down to 9%c, and closed at %%c sellers. There was an improved cash demand for wheat, and prices were higher. To- tal receipts of wheat at all Western primary markets were 961,214 bu, against 853,898 bu last year, and shipments were 1,701,480 bu, against 744,000 bu last vear. Chicago received 64.660 bu wheat and Kansas City $2.000 bu. Local re- ceipts of wheat were 35.016 bu, against 34,418 bu last year, and shipments were 33,5449 bu. Clearances of —r and flour for the day were 724,000 bu. The corn market was strong through- out, an4 there were practically no offer- ings. December stocks of corn are very light and prospecte are for light de- 'Nveries of that option, and this, with the pronounced siowness of corn in mov- ing, and the strong shipping demand from the last. were re#ponsibie for the early stronz demard. The rainy weath- er is unfavorable for corn, but cables were only %d higher. Prices, after an early sharp advance, moved slowly at the high levels, and closed at a gain of Ic to 1%@%ec for the day. There was a good demand for cash corn, with prices strong. Primary re- ceipts of corn were 236,065 bu, againat 399.554 bu last year, and shipments were 106,727 bu, against 242,000 bu last year. Local rece’pts of corn were 26, bu, against 46,200 bu last year, and shipments were 16.3% bu. Corn clearances were 234,000 bu.

i GETS LEMON IN DIVORCE COURT Second Wife's Decree s Decree Obtained on Testimony That Husband Was Faithful Only Short Time.

- Brent Lemon is now a doubly-divoréed young man. His second wife obtained @ decree Tuesday afternoon in Judge Sale’s court. She was Mrs. Nellie Mar- tin Lemon. She obtained her decree on the ground of cruelty and indignities. 'The couple were married March 22, 1904, very shortly after the first Mrs. Lemon had obtained a divorce in Judge Hough's court. Mrs. Lemon told Judge Sale that her husband went out with another woman

within two weeks of the wedding day. She testified that he struck her on sev- eral occasions. After their separation, in August, 1906, she said, the glass panel of the front door of her home was smashed. Her sister went to the door, but nobody was there. Later in the night he was found hanging about the premises and was arrested. Mrs. Lemon is a daughter of the fate Senator Martin and is a handsome wom- an. Her maiden name was restored,

“COON AMENDS. IIEBOLD'S LL Measure Creating Public Service Commission Reported Favorably After City Officers Are Barred.

After amending the bill creating a Public Service Commission by omitting from its membership all city officers, the Legislation Committee of the Coun- cil has favorably reported the measure. The bill was drawn by Charlies F. Ziebold, president of the West End Business Men’s Association, and was introduced in the City Council by Coun- cilman Cramer. It authorized a com- mission of nine members—the Mayor, | president of the Boke of Pulls int provements, City Counselor, Speaker of [FF the House of Delegates, President of the] Council and four representatives of various industrial, mercantile and busi- ness interests. The omission of the city officers was at the advice of City Counselor Bates. He said that their participation in the investigations and recommendations of the commission might embarrass them later when, in their capacity as city of- ficers, they would have to pass on leg- islation undertaken at its instance. The bill gives the commission the au- thority to inquire Into the franchises, privileges and ordinances under which street railways, telegraphs, telephones, gas plants, electric plants and other public utilities are operated, to compel the attendance of witnesses and _ the production jof books in order to get at the facts and to recommend reduction in rates for their service. The bill ap- propriates $10,000 for the commission's expenses, including counsel and clerical

assistants. Fa ay y : aa % ex ¥ f ort. sii s@ i “a Doe pil a Bat df a : ha eS gi 7 valli a es Nite * Was be MRE a Ce ee a : nt ea aie aap lap fo hes ae Cd » — beats
