Special to the Post-Dispatch. NEW YORK, Jan. 30.—The crowd that came to the Criminal Court today te witness the closing scenes in the sec- | ond trial of Harry K. Thaw, for the” murder of Stanford White, heard a re- markable summing up by District Ate orney Jerome, who, after admitting that White had rufnéd Evelyn Nesbit when she was 15 old, after draw- ing a verbal picture of the girl's wrongs that brought tears to Evelyn Thaw's eyes, Wheeled abruptly and, pointing his finger at the prisoner, branded him, mie ‘cowardly murderer’ and demanded life under the law. One year ago Jerome vehemently te nied the story told by Mrs. Thaw on the witness stand, Today there was a gasp of astonishment in’ the court- room when the prosecutor thundered te>> the jury: .¥ There is ne doubt that a great Wrong was committed; a wrong which cried ope: ’ for vengeance.

MOTHER INSISTS FATHER TAKE BABIES TO JAIL CELL WITH HIM Creates Scene in Police Station, Throwing Infant Into Arms of Deputy Sheriff. Throwing her year-old baby into the arms of Deputy Sheriff Joe Goetz at the East St. Louis police station, Mrs. Annie Letkow insisted that he take the child and her 83-year-old son to the Belleville Jail with their father, Frank Letkow. When Goetz gave her back the baby she handed it to its father in the line of prisoners and demanded that he care for the children while he was in Jail for fighting. In answer to the commands of the of- ficers to take away the crying children and cease her disturbance, Mrs. Letkow lay down on the floor of the police sta- tion and refused to allow the prisoners to be moved. She also refused to take her children. Sergeant of Police Wilson and other officers had to carry her into the cell room and close the bars before she would take back the ¢hildren and allow her husband to be taken away.

Had a Motive.” The District Attorney declared Thaw piainly had a motive for killing White. Every act of his for two or three years before the tragedy pointed to his dbad- ly and consuming hatred of the man he killed.: Thaw believed that White had drugged and mistreated his wife: he knew that White had kept him out of a New York club; he knew that White had threatened his life, “‘if the stage door- man its to be believed,”” and’ he knew that just a month before the tragedy White had told May MacKenzieYhat he heard Thaw and Evelyn were not living happily together and he would get the girl back. “It matters not whether vou believe the girl’s story of the drugging or not,’’ declared Mr. Jerome. “The relations of this middle-aged married man with the girl of 15 cry out to heaven, and no decent man can say a word in de- fense. I certainly have no intention of doing so. But with all the things I have pointed out you, if there was no motive in the heart of this defendant I can imagine nothin’: that can create a motive.”’ In his speech last year Mr. Jerome passionately defended Stanford White, declaring that his spirit hovered over the courtroom crying out to be heard in defense, crying for some one to tell the truth and protect aA character Evelyn Nesbit had sought to blacken. The prosecutor today took up one by one the acts of Thaw on the roof gar- den and immediately following the tragedy, and asserted they all pointed to a full Knowledge of what he was doing—that his eyes fell upon ‘‘the mon- to seemed ‘“*‘We got rid of our aches and ails by changing from coffee to POSTUM ‘*There's a Reason’’ | and the premeditated murder came to startle the whole world. Thaw’s move- ments were characterized by the utmost deliberation;~Mr, Jerome said. “We find Thaw armed on the garden— armed for a single purpose, armed for the man he walked up to and killed by three bullets, “Is there anything insane about all of this? He was nervous as a child, he had fits of tantrums; he did not like algebra; he was always pale, with star- ing eyes; he may have had outbursts here and there; but what has all that to do with this case? You are to con- sider only whether Thaw had the capacity to know he had a pistol in his pocket, if he knew it was Stanford White toward whom he .was walking, and if he knew the act was against the law. ‘Rhat is all. “The law specifically says that a weak or disordered mind no defense for criminal Partial or in- Is he by is perception of the nature or quality of his act. “Concede that Thaw was crazy on the train, London, Pittsburg, where you will, but is there any contention here that Thaw has been crazy during all of his 36 years of life? been crazy has been in contention that he is crazy as he sits here before you? ford White?

Reynolds of the Central Police District has discovered.a new society fad, and he proposes to put the lid on it He issued an order Thursday that guard should be kept along Locust and Crestnut street just before the theater hours for ‘‘scorching’’ automobiles. “I have many complaints that theater parties in automobiles endanger life by their speed on the way to the theaters,”’ Capt. Reynolds said. “On investigation I learned that it is actually a fad to wait until the last possible moment and then have the cars driven at the top of their speed to the playhouses. A great tne drive, too, I suppose, but the prac- tice is dangerous to others, and I expect ts» stop it.” The Central District extends to Twen- ty-second street. Capt.

HADLEY SAYS OIL TRUST POISONS BUSINESS L Attorney - General Declares Testimony Shatters Arch- bold Defense.

“A SAD COMMENTARY”

Comprehensive Article Tells How Standard Profited From Competitors.

Attorney-General rebukes the in an article in this Herbert S. Hadley, of Missouri, scathingly Standard Oil Co. week's Saturday Evening Post. It is a reply to the defense written by John D. Archbold, vice-president of the company, and published in the same magazine several weeks ago. In summing up, Mr. Hadley says that the Standard Oil vo. to our entire business “has given an im- moral standard life.”’ Ordinarily Is Dishonest. Of the methods of the company, affairs of -life an he says: “In ordinary individual methods of concealment and deception who would resort to such to further his own interests at the ex- pense of others would be regarded as neither respectable nor honest.’’ Here are some of the striking passages in Mr. Hadley’s comprehensive article: “It was entirely unnecessary for Mr. Archbold to urge upon his readers that the Standard wil Trust is a powerful and successful commercial organization, or that it has adopted many useful and important economies in the conduct of its extensive and diversified business. But his denial of the often repeated charge that the business success of the Standard Oil Trust has been largely con- tributed to by unlawful special favors from railroad companies can hardly be accepted as conclusive, contradicted as it is by testimony in numerous cases and investigations. And when the amount and frequency of these special privileges which have been conclusively proven to exist are considered, the state- ment is clearly justified that the abil- ity of the Standard O!l Trust to defeat competition and achieve its remarkable success has been due to illegal privileges from railroad companies more than to any other one cause. that during the early period of its ex- istence it had contracts with railroad companies by which it secured a rebate of. from ten to sixty-eight per cent on the published tariffs of the roads on all oll that it shipped. This would have been an advantage over competitors which would have satisfied the avarice of most people. But not so with the geniuses of the Standard Oil Trust. They demanded and received the same amount as a rebate upon the shipments of their competitors, who were compelled to pay the full tariff rate by the railroads. “Thus, the Standard Oil Trust had a cunningly-devised scheme by which it would profit through the business done by ita competitors. If the oil dealers in competition with th@ Standard’ Oil Trust persisted in their effort to con- tinue this unequal contest, then every additional gallon of oll that they shipped increased the revenues of the Standard Oil Trust doubtless more than it did those of the independent dealers. Discrimination in Missouri. ‘In a hearing held within the course of the last two years before the Board of Railroad Commissioners of the State of Missouri, on the complaint of inde- pendent oil dealers, it was shown that the Missouri Pacific Railway Co. had established a rate upon oil of 17 cents a hundred from Kansas ‘City to’ St. Louis, and 22 cents a hundred from St. Louis to Kansas City. The explanation of this unjustifiable discrimination was that the Standard Oil Trust had a re- finery at Kansas City from which it shipped oil to St. Louis, while the In- dependent ojl dealers at Kansas City received their oil from independent re- fineries which shipped from St. Louis to Kansas City. Thus it cost the inde- pendent oil dealers 5 cents a hundred more to get their oil from St. Louis to Kansas City than it cost the Standard Oll Trust to send its oil from Kansas City to St. Louls. And while the Stand- ard Ol! Trust was shipping its oil from Whiting to East St. Louis, a distance of 281 miles, at the rate of 6 cents a hundred, the independeut refineries in the Kansas and Oklahoma were compelled to pay 17 cents a hun- dred to ship their oil less than 100 miles to commercial centers in the State of Missouri. ‘The fact that it has been necessary for the Standard Oil Trust to have dif- ferent corporations as agencies through which it did business has not justified its policy of maintaining pirate or bo- gus cOmpanies which, while pretending to be competitors of the Standard Oil Trust, were in reality owned by it. Thus, in the Central West, the Standard Oll Trust maintained the Republic Oil Co., which pretended to be a competitor of the Standard O!l interests, but in reality preyed upon the business of in- dependent oil companies. This company ‘took over the property and continued the business of the former well-known firm of independent ofl dealers of Scho- field, Bhurmer & Teagle of Cleveland, ©. The tnceorporators of the Republic Oll Co. were inconspicuous employes of different Standard Ot! companies, and one of the incorporators testified that at the direction of one of the leading officials of the Standard Ol Trust he signed a fictitious name and address to the articles of incorporation, in order that it might not become known that the Republic Oil Co. was a Standard in! interest.

(From Our Own Enterprising Nature Faker.) ALTON AND THE SANDBAR OP- POSITE, Jan. 30.—A flock of mules flew over here yesterday, headed east, but going west. Bilfy Kelly said it was a sign of early spring, but he’s not so sure he was right since he found out what the mules were going after. He followed the mules and. made one of the greatest scientific discoveries of the age. If the name of Billy Kelly doesn’t get painted right up on the front porch of the Hall of Fame it will be because the American people ungrateful. Billy rowed across the river and hid behind a blind until the flock of mules lit. Keeping well out of reach of their wings, with which mules sometimes put up a stiff fight, he observed them close- ly and found that they had stopped to feed on a patch of little red berries which grow in profusion on the Missouri shore. , Berries Have No Name. No one had ever given these berries a name, though it was well known that because of them it was almost impos- sible for Illinois farmers to keep their mules on the roost. Flock after flock of mules, even staid old setting mules had deserted their lofts and nests to get a taste of the little red berries. Billy watched the flock a long time and then an inspiration came to him. ‘I’ve got it,”’ he cried. ‘‘Those are he- haw berries, ‘‘not black haws or hairy haws, but he-haws.”’ In his excitement Billy Kelly threw his hat in the air and he scared the OF MULES FLY

Billy Kelly says he’s going to get rich planting he-haw berries in every State in the Union and on the island possessions. At present the berries grow only in Missouri, and Billy says that’s what makes the Missouri mule the fin- est in the world. He allows that the man who makes two mules to grow where but one grew before is a bene- factor of the race, and he expects the Government to give him a big bonus for propagating the he-haws. Billy Kelly says heitl make more money at that business than he ever did when was a Kansas City comedian singing, ‘“‘Papa’s Pants Fit Willie New,” at two performances daily seven days a week.

it was disclosed in &e Missouri litiga- tion that it was nm@ an independent company. According to the testimony of Mr. C. L. Nichols, its president, it was abandoned because, upon the dis- closure of its ownership, it could no longer carry on a successful business, and it had already accomplished its purpose. It is certainly a sad com- mentary upon any business that it has to be abandoneq when its ownership becomes known. Ratlroads Aided Trust. “These were not the only methods re- sorted to. by the Standard Oil Co. to “crush out’’ competition. “One instance will serve as an illus- tration of many. L. C. Lohmann, one of the leading business men of Jefferson City, the capital of Missouri, tried to sell oil purchased of independent oil companies located in Ohio and West Virginia. When he ordered a shipment of oil, the price would be reduced in Jefferson City below the price at which he had been able to purchase it from the refinery before his shipment reached St. Louis. When he had finally sold out his .supply of oil the price would then be raised so high in Jeffer- son City by the Standard Oll Co. that he could buy its ofl of retail dealers in St. Louis and elsewhere, ship it to Jef- ferson City and sell it at a profit for a lower price than the Standard O!l Co.'s oil was being sold there. Finally, exas- perated apparently by Mr. Lohmann’s persistency, the Standard Ol Co. in- duced the three railroads entering the State capital to refuse to carry oil to Mr. Lohmann. And when Mr. Lohmann, in a suit with the Standard Oi! Co., claimed that it wag violating the anti- trust laws of the State, and subpenaed its agents with his books and records, it was claimed that the books and rec- ords had been burned. and the case was settled. “The companies with which these con- troversies occurred was the Waters- Pierce Oil Co., a subsidiary company of

the Stang&rd Oil Trust, owned and con- trolled by it.’’ Predicts Moral Benefit. “Tf the efforts of the National Gov- ernment and the several states to dis- solve the present organization of the Standard Oil Trust, punish it for its wrong-doing, and compel it to conduct its business in accordance with the laws of the Nation and the states, are suc- cessful, it will mean much in a financial way to the American poeple. This will be true because it will mean that the law of supply and demand and free and unrestricted competition will again ob- tain in regulating the cost of the raw material and the refined product. But the benefit that will be derived in the moral lessons that will be thereby taught will be far greater than the benefits in dollars and cents.

It never oc- curred to the gister, Miss Mamie Weiss, that there was a license office here. “I just wanted to show him he wasn’t his own boss yet,’’ said Miss Weiss when asked Thursday as to her reason for preventing her brother's marriage in East St. Louis and trying to do the same elsewhere. She preceded him to the East St. Louis license office, and, when he and Miss Jackson appeared there and he declared that he was 22 years old, she appeared from the next room and confronted him.

For eleven years, of course, his flowers and his smiles have been for the Republicans, and so much a part of their wardrobe has the carnation become that the Speaker, Dalzell, Payne, Sherman, Loudenslager, Longworth, Huff, Boutell and Hepburn patronize the florist on the days that they do not visit the capitol. In fact, the elevator man has become so expert at bestrewing hig favors that the little flower is known as the “red badge of power.”’ Today, however, nearly every man on the Republican side and many of the Democrats wore car- won- dered why. “What right have you to wear that?’ asked Champ Clark of a new member. “Why, this is McKinley's birthday.’’ tise sis. a ASAIO A OLR FIRE HT RR RTT RIN A A ge | The red carnation was MeKiniey’s favorite flower.

The case should be tried first, he says, in the Texas courts, and if Mr. Pierce finds that his rights under the Federal laws are endangered by the Texas courts he can then appeal to »the Federa] courts. If there are defects in the indict- ment, it ig argued, they do not affect the extradition as after Mr. Pierce has been returned to Texas under the laws there the indictment can be amended by the State prosecutors or a new indictment returned § against him.

WILEY PUTS SUNDAY LID IN DANGER BY FARM STILL PLAN Tells Congress How Every Agricul- turist Can Make His Own Alcohol. WASHINGTON, Jan. 30.—Gov. all-confining lid is likely to be kicked sky high when the ‘denatured jag’’ which Dr, Wiley. the Government’s food expert, has devised, gets in its work on the Missouri farmers. Dr. Wiley wants every farmer to be hig ewn distiller and is certain that his scheme if put into effect will furnish plenty of heat and light for every farm in the country. Dr. Wiley explained his plan to the House Committee on Agriculture in an effort to get the committee to enable him to build a simple distillery and teach the farmers how to make the same kind for themselves. Then, he says, they can distill the waste products of their farms and burn the denatured alcohol. It will reduce their living ex- penses, he says, and enrich the coun- cry. Neither the women of the W. C. T. U. nor the distilleries have yet put in an appearance to fight Dr. Wiley’s scheme, which some drink experts say Folk’'s THREE MEN WAGE LEGAL FIGHT FOR DOG ON BENCH AT EAST ST, LOUIS SHOW Exhibitor’s Claim Challenged First, Then Challenger Learns of Flaw in His Title. Although he was only given third prize in the pointer class, ‘‘Spot’’ is attract- ing more attention than any other dog in the East St. Louis dog show. When dogs attract a great deal of attention from fanciers it is generally because of their pedigree, But the point of in- terest about Spot is, who is his owner? The pointer was entered in the show by T. R. Schwartz of the Wiess Hotel. The day after the show opened Fred Kraft, a dog fancier, examined the dog and said that it belonged to him. Schwartz admitted the dog had come stray, but refusea to give grounds that when it came had the appearance of a common cur and it was owing to his care of the animal that it was put in dog-show condition. So Kraft filed a replevin suit, and Con- stable Barney Williams went to the show to serve the attachment papers. The officials of the show persuaded him o allow the dog to remain in the show. Williams is now stationed in the build- ing, and when the show closes tonight will take possession of the dog.

POLICE SOUSE BURNING BEER WITH BOTTLES OF SELTZER, SAVING SALOON

Search in Dark for Water Is Futile and Patrolmen Use 20 Syphons. Policemen Hanrahan and O’Connor of the Carr Street District were confronted with a knotty problem Wednesday night when an explosion led them to dis- cover fire in the storeroom of Henry Helmich’s saloon and wholesale liquor place at High and Biddle streets. Hanrahan and O’Connor forced their way into the building. Groping through numerous passages and rooms, they finally reached the fire, in the bottled beer department. Siteen cases of beer were ablaze. “Grab the seltzer bottle,” said -O’Con- nor after he and his partner had made a fruitless search for water. After five minutes of work with selt- zer the fire was finally extinguished. message practicall Py cS GR CR EE Bo he RECAUGHT BY AMERICANS Flashed From the Battleship Louisiana It Travels 19,000 Miles in Space.

T l.avy Department be- lieves this really been done and that the record of wireless transmis- sion through about 19,000 miles of space has been made. Rear Admiral Cowles told the House Naval Committee about it. The mes- sage was sent by the battleship Louisi- ana when the fleet was sailing down the Atlantic Coast of North America on its trip to the Pacific. Because the fleet was so long out of close communica- tion it required a long time to investl- gate the matter. The wireless station at Point Loma, Cal., captured - mes- sage and announced it. The feat was so remarkable, in view of the fact that no station of the At- lantic Coast had taken it, that there was doubt of the accuracy of the re- port. But the matter has been investi- gated, the exact time of sending and receiving the message obtained, and the fact that it was both sent and received has been fully authenticated. It would have been about 6000 miles by direct line from the point of send- ing to that of receiving; but taking into consideration other factors—the fact that very high mountains intervened and that other wireless stations in North America missed the dispatch—it is seriously suggested that the message went around the world the other way, crossed the Eastern Continent and the Pacific, and actually represents the feat

BACKSLIDERS MAY SWEAR OFF AGAIN WITH CHINESE

To Quit Fan-Tan and such Things On Their New Years, Saturday.

liave you fallen off the water wagon upon which vou so laboriously climbed New Year's Day? Cheer up, for you have another chance. Chinese New Year’s Day will be celebrated Saturday, and the Celestials follow Occidental cus- tom by swearing off fantan, pigow and rum for 24 hours at least, and Amer- icans will be welcomed to a seat on the Chinese crystal cart. On this festival, for the only time in the year ,there will be peace and har- mony in the Chinese quarter. The rival tongs will cease from troubling, anl the highbinder will be at rest. Each pigtailed alien will greet his brother with wishes of good luck, and will visit nim during the day to accept his hospi- tality of chop suey, birds’-nest soup and acrid tea. Swear Off Work Also. No work is done on that day, and the laundrymen, by way of watching the old year out, will frantically brandish their irons until 11:59 p. m. Friday in a des- perate endeavor to finish their work be- fore the entrance of the New Year. The feature of the day will be the dinner servea in all Chinese houses prompily at 4p. m. Ordinary viands will be despised, and only imported deli- cacies wiil be acceptable. Flags and bunting will make the whole quarter gay. THE VALUE OF CHARCOAL. Few People Know How Useful It Is In Preserving Health and Beauty.

Cost Nothing To Try. Nearly everybody knows that char- coal is the saiest and most efficient disinfectant and purifier in nature, but few realize its value when taken into the human system for the same cleans- ing purpose. Charcoal is a remedy that the more you take of it the better; it is not a drug at all, but simply absorbs the gases and impurities always present in the stomach and intestines and tar- ries them out of the system. Charcoal sweetens the breath after smoking, drinking or after eating on- ions and other odorous vegetables, Chareoal effectually clears and im- proves the complexion, it whitens the teeth and further acts as a natural and eminently safe cathartic. It absorbs the injurious gases which collect in the stomach and bowels; it disinfects the mouth and throat from the poison of catarrh. All cruggists sell charcoal in one form or another, but probably the best chareoal and the most tor the money is in Stuart’s Charcoal Lozenges; they are composed of the finest powdered Willow charcoal, and other harmless antiseptics in tablet form, or rather in the form of large, pleasant-tasting loz- enges, the charcoal being mixed with honey. : The daily use of these lozenges will soon tell in a much essential eondi- tion of the general health, better com- plexion, sweeter breath and purer blood, and the beauty of it is that no possi- a am er result from their con- ued use, but, on the contrary, — = A Buffalo physician, in speaking o the benefits df cheieenl. nies ad ths vise Stuart’s Charcoal Lozenges to al! patients suffering from and bowels, and to clear the complexion and panty the breath, mouth and throat; I also believe the liver is great- y benefited by the daily use of them; they cost but twenty-five cents a box at drug stores, and although in some sense a patent preparation, yet I be- lieve LE om more and better charcoa! in St ‘s Charcoal in any of the ordinary charcoal tablets.” your name and address today for a free trial and see for

The only victims of the celebration are the Postoffice clerks, who have the task of deciphering thousands of New Year's car@s sent by Chinamen friends in otaer American cities and in China. The nectic flush of the elerks’ temarks as they perspire at this task is equaled only by the crimson haze, variegated by streaks of purple and green, which is reflected from the masges of lurid Chi- nes@ Caras. Just what year in the era Saturday will inaugurate no one knows.

Shortly after court opened Mrs. Mc- Donald rose from her chair, reeled and would have fallen had not the nurses, who are in constant attendance, caught her. She was hurried to an anteroom and Dr. Harris, Assistant-County Phy- sician, was called. He found that the woman was suf- fering from an attack of heart fail- ure, and reported that she was liable at any time during the strain of the trial to suffer further attacks, any one of which might prove fatal, He admin- istered strong stimulants and stayed within call. Patrolman Doherty was on the stand again today. He described cloth- ing of Guerin as he found it and con- the statement that he found a in Guerin’s desk after the the firmed cartridge tragedy.

CHILD LABOR IS AUINING MORALS WOMAN ASSERTS _

State Factory Inspector De- clares Language Heard in Workshops Sickening.

SCORES CHEAP SHOWS

Penny Amusement Places, She Says, Are Menace to Young People.

responsible Cheap theaters, which are girls, fer the ruin of many boys and the immoral influences which exist in gome of the mills, shops and factories and the menace of child labor in gener- al were some of the topics included in the address given by Mrs. G. W. Heck- er, State Factory Inspector, before the Mothers’ Club. which held a regular monthly meeting at the Markham Memorial Presbyterian Church Wednes- @ay afternoon, with ™ members pres ent. “There is absolutely no excuse ehild labor,’’ Mrs. Hecker told her lear- ers. “We must not sacrifice the com- ing generation to the greed of com- mercialism. Society and the state are solemniy obligated to furnish industrial schools or institutions where children may receive practical and literary train- ing for future usefulness. Witnessed Clog Dance. “Children or young girls should be permitted to work in factories be- cause the mora! influence is not suited to their innocent years. Only a few days ago, when | was going up ina factory elevator | saw a woman of about my own age doing a clog dance with her skirts held above her knees before an audience of men and girls. “The language one hears around the rocms when the giris and men are at linch is sometimes sickening. Every woman who is the mother of a daugh- ter should be interested in work con- ducive to the preservation of good wnerals in factories, mills and work- shops. “Jt ig to the large and ever-increasing class of our working female population ‘to which we must look to repeople our land when those now living have passed away. Abuse Weakens Women. “The abuse and exhaustion of strength of these women unfits them for mother- hood, and the children of cripples and Invalids will be born into the world weakened in mind and morals and are likely to becDme a serious charge and burden to society and the State. In view of ‘this fact, can laws forbidding women to engagge {1 improper work be reasonably objected to? “Employers take excellent care of the machinery of tie mills and factories, but when an emplove is injured, or when he sickens and dies, the owner of the plant suffers no loss, another laborer can be found who is willing or forced to enter the same position and to take the game risks which disabled the predeces- gor. These are some of the reasons why the State should prescribe wholesome regulations and = restrictions against these dangers and evils. Cheap Theaters Condemned. “Cheap theaters are a terrible menace to the young, especially the bovs and girls who are working during the day and who stay out until midnight watch- ing the moving pictures. I have known boys to steal from their mothers to get the pennies to go to these shows.

Unique Surgical Operation Is Expected to Save Life of Patient.

NEW YORK, Jan. 30.—Two Surgeons at Bellevue Hospital last night performed an operation which is said to be unique in surgical history. Nearly two months ago Michael Fitzpatrick, a ‘‘trusty’’ in the Tombs Prison, fell down an elevator shaft and broke his back. He was removed to Bellevue but it was thought nothing could be done for him. He clung to life tenaciously and Dr. Milton FE. Lewis and Dr. Dudley EF. Con- ley> who were graduated from Columbia Medical School last year, became much interested in his case. Four of Fitz- patrick s vertebrae were broken and the ragged edges were pressing against the spine, paralyzing the entire body. The operation consisted in cutting off the ends of these vertebrae with a cres- ent-shaped saw and winding the stubs with tissue rubber, making a cushion of each. It was believed last night that the operation had been entirely success- ful. Iitzpatrick must remain for sey- eral months on a rubber water bed. Miner Survives Operation. the miner from whose back was young Joseph Pittoria, the Illinois coal district, broken in a mine cave-in, is slowly re- covering at the Deaconess’ Hospital in St. Louis after a section of his vertebrae was removed by surgeons. When many tons of coal and rock fell on Pittoria it doubled him up in aych a manner as to crush the trans- verse and spinus processes of the three upper vertebrae of the lumbar region. In the Deaconess’ Hospital Dr. Menestrina performed an operation during which he removed the crushed _ processes, cleaned the spinal canal, restoring to sensitiveness the lower part of the pa- tient’s body and relieving him ef the AgONY Caused by the splinters of bone that pressed upon the spinal cord. The recuperation of Pittoria has been slow, but the operating surgeon is now confident of his ultimate recovery. LOSES 170 POUNDS IN YEAR Say Cunningham Weighed Only 50 at Death.

ONE WAY TO BRING NAUGHTON BACK. In view of Daniel Naughton’s notorious escape from town to avoid the grand jury, the House of Delegates flies in the face of public decency when it impudently extends his “leave of absence.” ‘By so doing the Delegates voluntarily place themselves on record as aiding and abetting ‘crime. In cffect they indorse the bribery trans- _ “actions of which Naughton is wanted as a wit- ness. And they invite a strong suspicion that self-protection plays a part in encouraging ‘Naughton to keep out of the court’s reach. Are there others in the House besides Warner and Priesmeyer who are afraid to have Naugh- “ton come back? ‘Unless there is an urgent motive of self-pres- ervation, it is hard to account for the effrontery which has challenged public decency in this man- ner. It would be a fitting answer to this challenge if Naughton should be indicted and brought back by extradition. 6 ee -——_——_—_ -- NO SHOW WINDOW HOSIERY FOR WALLACE. . Judge Wallace, who seems to have taken more notice of such things than normal-minded men and judges usually do, is modestly outraged by the display of dummy legs in the hosiery win- dows of department stores. Not content with suppressing human habits, he now proposes to suppress the human'‘shape, and by mandate re- gtricts exposure of the stocking forms to the ankles and no further. Whether this :s not more temptingly suggestive than a full-length stuffing is a pure academic @testion which may be left to any prurient minds who fancy debating it with the Kansas City ar- biter elegantiarum. But a sane and thoughtful public morality may defend his indictment of the

_ leg in general. “The leg enjoys its undeserved disrepute only * because unworthy people have always singled {t out for undue attention, beginning with the heathen who worshipped the golden calf down to the modern idolaters of the bald-headed row— ‘some of them judges, too—and the people whe sought to wear blinders on rainy-days. It is re- igrettable that an eminent judicial authority who running for Governor of a serene and civilized ommunity should lend his weight and influ- lence to this injustice by shying at a pair of ‘(stuffed stockings in a showcase. - ' To most people who look at them the stockings will be the interest and attraction rather than the filling. To most people, indeed, a purely im- rsonal leg is no very sensational or shocking hing. A leg is just a leg. There have been ean-minded people who frankly admired legs— eminine at that—as honorable members of hu- an anatomy. The long légs of the Greek god- esses were praised by the poets and’ admired lac legs, even as we pote with approval the clean limbs of an American Indian. Beauty has been reverenced by men not unworthy. A famous sur- m once wept when confronted with the vital ecessity of amputating a woman's leg of perfect ntour. Perfection in legs is part of the noblest diwork of creation. | It may be weii to commend to Judge Wallace the frankly chivalrous spirit of the perfect gentle- in who was waiking along a muddy street be- ind a lady whose skirts were caught up, appar- tly by accident, to an unusual elevation. Think- & to save her embarrassment, he courteously unformed her of the fact, whereupon she re- ded with spirit: “Haven't I a perfect right, r?” “To be sure you have, madam,” he replied with a bow as he passed on, “and an artistically rfect left as well.” 4 Had the gentleman been running for Governor ‘a platform of sensation he would have called @ police or turned jn a riot call. + a.

Nice, France, Jan. 29, 1908. ha, died — a a MR. CORTELYOU IN HIS OWN BEHALF. Called upon by resolutions of the United States Senate to make a complete statement as to the operations of the Treasury during the financial disturbance of last fall, Secretary Cor- telyou has the honor to report that he alone dispelled the panic. It is probable that the archives of the Gov- ernment might be searched in vain for such another indorsement by a department chief of his own performances. Like Providence, if we are to give full faith and credit to this re- markable state paper, Mr. Cortelyou does al! things wisely and well. In spite of all this self laudation, however, the fact ‘remains that sound financiers hold that, except for the prompt liberation of Treasury funds, everything that was done by the Secre- tary was a hindrance rather than a help to business. His spectacular bond sales were a farce and if they had not been at length ef- fected largely in the nature of “wash” transac- tions they would have done vastly more harm than good. There is grave reason to believe that the operations of the Treasury in this respect were contrary to law and it is to be inferred that the Senate’s inquiry was made with this thought in mind. Certain it is that the Secre- tary’s report was written in the light of that idea, for from first to last it is a plea of justifi- cation. In one respect Mr. Cortelyou is wholly can- did as well as accurate, and that is in his asser- tion that Congress by appropriate legislation should relieve the Secretary of the Treasury of the duty—or the temptation as some people would call it—of hastening to the rescue of Wall street whenever it engages in one of its period- ical and inevitable sprees. If to save the gamblers of the New York Stock Exchange from their own folly be the chief end of government and statesmanship, it will have to be admitted that the present head of the Treasury Department did all that was becom- ing to a man who expects soon to engage in business in the vicinity of that institution, but it may well be doubted whether the people at large profited much by his activity. There are too many wires between Wall street and the Treasury. Too many New York banks live off Wall street. Too many Treasury offi- cials have Wall street positions in view. Mr. Cortelyou’s extremely wordy report does not say this, but it shows it. . & & i a A RUBBERNECK SOCIOLOGY IN ST. LOUIS. The Sage Foundation Fund and the St. Louis School of Philanthropy recently undertook to compyte the “cost of living” in St. Louis. There would have been no objection to the plan except that it involved a house-to-house inquiry. This feature of the benevolent program is viewed by the Central Trades and Labor Union as a piece of impertinence. At least the Central Trades and Labor Union has the constitution on its side. While sociol- ogists have a clear right to compile and compute to their heart’s content, our constitutional for- bears took pains to be express in securing to the citizen immunity in his home against pry- ing eyes, in accordance with the maxim that every man’s house is his castle. Long before the forbears wrote it down in the enumeration of our liberties, the eloquent Chatham made this declaration: ‘The poorest man may, in his cottage, bid defiance to all the forces of the Crown. It may be frail: its roof may shake; the wind may blow through it; the storm may enter; but the King of England may not enter.” Nor might the King stick his nose in the doorway and demand to know how much the porridge cost. By the same token in this country we may

| beg to be excused when a pious investigator sum- mons us to the threshold to impale us on the point of personal inquiry for the purpose of card- ing us like a butterfly or sticking us into a gatalogue of statistics. It is bad enough to have to tell the census taker our age, without having to stand and let an economist: look at our teeth. We are something more than phenomena or data; nor is the grocery bill something which he who runs may read. The self-respecting American citizen no more proposes to be stood on the doorsill and scrutinized through the myopic lenses of long-haired sociology than to be squint- ed at through the lorgnettes of a supercilious charity. If it be true that one-half of the world does not know “how the other half lives,” it may safely be added that it is none of the one-half’s business. And when it presumes to make it its business it is as often guided by vulgar curiosity as by disinterested and so-called “worthy” mo- tives, which in themselves involve very often a measure of affectation. Philanthropy loves nothing better than slumming and when it ts not merely slumming it is likely to be a busy- body. Socio-economics never got any results to speak of and perhaps it combines as many ele- ments of offense-giving as any other branch of the business. American slang and humor never combined to do a better day’s work than when they coined “Rubberneck”—a word that fairly well describes those who would smell of our coffee pots and ask to look at our recelpted bills. i —— | So Senator Aldrich’s emergency currency bill has been modified to some extent in the interest of

great mistake to provide for $500,000,000 of brand- new money and not afrange matters 60 that some of it would be issued in the West where Wall street can borrow it. Nearly all victims of footpads are first felled by a blow on the head. In St. Louis those who have nothing worth stealing are pummeled once more, for revenge. Thus new terrors are added to poverty, and men who have the least get the most.

One of your correspondents proceeds to give the gay and festive bachelor a dubbing for shirking his responsibilities. He says no loyal and loving pos- terity will rise up and bless him. Do all children al- ways rise up and bless their parents? We think not. In fact we know of very many cases where chil- dren blame their parents (and rightly so) for the multitude of their misfortunes, The gay bachelor has thts comfortable thought that while he has troubles of his own, he does not inflict them upon anyone else, A MARRIED WOMAN. German Protestant Orphan Home. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. At the monthly meeting of the Board of Directors of the German General Protestant Orphan Home, held Jan. 27, 1908, the entertainment committee made its final report on the benefit performance at the Olympic Theater. We are glad to say that the event proved successful beyond expectation. This suc- cess we attribute to the generous response of the charitable public, as well as ‘to the liberal publicity which your valuable paper has given the occasion, and beg to express our gratitude to you for your generous support. J. H. CONRADES, President. HERMAN HANHERT, Secretary. The Terror of Hard Times. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. Will any of your many kind readers answer what shall a man of 26 years do when he has a college eduaction, three years of experience as a clerk and stenographer and a family of eight practically de- pending on him for support, in order to secure a position? I have answered within the last five weeks more than three hundred “ads;” have advertised several times in your paper, but all in vain; I have not received one answer, and am practically worn out from care and sorrow. Is it really impossible for a man who is willing to work to get a start in St. Louis? Yhope that some of your readers will ponder La little over my critical circumstances and will ten- der me a position which will enable me to earn a living for me and my folks. STRUGGLE. Irsane Asylum Delay. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. In your editorial columns of Tuesday you, by infer- ence at least, indict the Wells administration for the delay in the construction of the new Insane Asylum, funds for which were voted by the people of St. Louls nearly two years ago. The delay is dastardly and your knowledge of the pathetic condition of the Asy- lum is accurate. The blame ought to be placed and quickly, and I believe you can do so with little ef- fort. Mayor Wells, more than any other man de- serves the credit for submitting to the people the necessity for an adequate Asylum. He has long de- plored the grewsome conditions of the overcrowded old institution. He has been persistent in his endeav- or to have the new one built and it would be housing our public charges in comfort today if he had the law- ful power to build it. But, unfortunately, in this in- stance, the charter confers the authority for initiat- ing all public work upon the Board of Public Im- provements. And it is no other than the President of this Board who has stood and now stands between the people and the new Asylum, in spite of Mayor Wells. Although repeatedly importuned to act, he has persevered in an attitude of deliberate obstruc- tion. Why? Politics. CITIZEN. Folk and the Presidency. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. In your issue of Jan. 27 you print an editorial which. presents the name of Joseph W. Folk, Gov- ernor of Missouri, as a man whom the Democratic party might nominate as its candidate for the Presidency. I am sure every Democratic Missourian, of whom I am one, thinks very highly of our Gov- ernor and do not doubt that he is growing presiden- tial timber. But when the editorial says that Mr. Folk alone was elected when the State went Re- publican and claims that “many another Democrat went down under the accumulated wrath and folly of Bryanism and Populism,” it is making an assertion which the facts will not support. Missouri went Re- publican, except the governorship, not because of “RBryanism and Populism” but because many Demo- crats repuliated national and State machine politics. They did this as the Democratic vote itself proves, by staying at home. The Democrats of: Missouri want as their presidential candidate the man who has led them so gallantly in the fight before, It eareer of Mr: Bryan that those who call themselves Democrats should seek to defeat his nomination and push to the front such men as Gov. Folk and Gov. Johnson. These are no doubt great statesmen, but the qualifications they have for Democratic leader- ship Mr. Bryan has and other M@ualifications besides. REV. L. G.

Expensive Toy -Fish. Irom the Philadelphia Record. William H. Heimbach of Allentown, an expert breeder of fancy fishes, has recently sold a lot of Japanese fringetails and some Chinese fantails for $10 each, Geveral of the fringetatls, with bodies less than three inches long, have tails measuring four inches. The parent stock was imported from the Orient, but Mr. Heimbach has succeeded in rais- ing about five hundred of the fish in an elaborate hatchery he built adjoining his home. The fad, in ad- dition to being expensive, requires infinite patience and care. The fish must be kept and bred in still water, which is supplied with oxygen by means of odd plants procured chiefly from China. The breed- ing of these toy fish, of which single specimens are | worth from $5 to $10, is said to be the acme of pisca- torial culture. A’ well-stocked five-gallon aquarium is worth about $150.

Col. John I. Beggs is in the city this week looking over his own. He has been re-elected president of the various rami- fications of the North American Co. Like Mr. Bryan, he never has any op- position. Col. Beggs is probably very much pleased with us as tenants. We take very good care of the premises. We see that the children do not scratch any- thing. We pay promptly, seldom ask for repairs, and never threaten to move to Indianapolis or Vincennes, Upon’ our own part, too, we are large- ly reconciled to Col. Beggs. While he lives in Milwaukee, it must be remem- bered that landlords seldom live with their tenants. We used to think he was hard, and kick a great deal; but Home Rule is a sort of ignus fatuus, and we have turned to the pursuit of less futile things. Comparatively speaking, the Colonel is not a bad landlord at all. They have worse in Ireland. Martin W. Littleton, attorney for the defense in the second Thaw trial, is the man who nominated Judge Parker at the National Democratic Convention in St. Louis four years ago. If Thaw gets what Parker got, there will be an incli- nation in the country to let Mr. Littleton speak for himself only.

L JUST A MINUTE FOR VERSE AND HUMOR. Written for the Post-Dispatch by Clark McAdams. A MISSISSIPPI RIVER PROPHECY. NTHINKING people laugh when the glorious future of the Mississippi and its tributaries is painted. They do not realize that within a few years the only liquor sold between the Alleghenies and the Rockies will be served on steamboats under the protection of Government license. Even Mark Twain, who places the Golden Age of the great river back in the ’Forties and ’Fifties, did not foresee the Anti-Saloon League. The fact is that the haleyon day of the Mississippi is just dawning. Deep water wlll be- come a matter of life and death. Thousands of people who voted wet, will

move in and found towns where the boats can touch. Travel on the river will exceed that of the palmiest antc-bellum days. The swift turbine will carry the julep, the high-pressure engine will hurry with the highball, and the sharp- nosed barge will breast the wave with the barreled beer. The Anti-Saloon League owns only the earth, and not the waters thereof. Even if St. Louis does go dry in two years, as the League threatens, there will be bars resting at anchor off the foot of Pine and Olive streets, Re- lief expeditions under a full head of steam will surge by on their way to Jef- ferson City. Liquor-loving Colonels rescued all along the river from New

Orleans to Cape Girardeau will come in on the Southern packets—and return without coming ashore to see the city.

my, . oe Oe a ee THE NEW EAST LYNNE | Written Expressly for the Post-Dis- patch By Clara Morris. SYNOPSIS OF PRECEDING CHAPTERS Dr, Philip Keith marries beautiful Daphne Cuvier, whom Turk Belden, a wealthy profti- gate, coveted. Olive Marr, the doctor's war! anc stepdaughter of his cousin, loves Phillip he lives in his home, being an orphan. The octor neglects his wife for his profess‘on ania Mrs. Allingham, Daphne learns through an anonymous letter. She is fecling hie neglect and is aware of the wreck of her happiness. Belden has become 4 family friend. In a crisis brought on by a public dis- clesure of Dr. Keith's relations to Mrs. Al- lingham, Daphne hysterically files from her home nt on suicide. Belden manages to get possession of her and calms her_hysterla with a narcotic. He takes her to Montreal before she awakes. (Copyright, 1907, by Clara Morris. CHAPTER X. In a Strange Land. RAPPED about with pride as in W a mantle, Mrs. Keith sat speech- less, motherless. Dazed, stupid- ly her mind seemed to plod around and around one small circle, utterly unable to break through at any point. “I am here in a strange city with a man who is not my husband’’-here @ shudder of abhorrence shook her as ghe saw a mental picture of Olive Marr, lightly clad, with falling hair, lying in Philip’s arms accepting his caresses, his endearing words. She recalled the ag- ony of that home betrayal, the loathing and the shame, the torturing pain through face and eyes. ) Then she had feit the power of the river drawing her, heard its soft lip- ping ands lapping about the close-set greenish piles, and, being homeless and alone, she had obeyed the water's call. She—yes, she thought she had run and perhaps fallen, only there was the aw- ful pain. And she had begun to float softly and gently, and then Olive’s great coil of chestnut hair had slowly turned into a writhing serpent that struck at her nginy times. Now she was here in a strange place with this man who Was not her husband, and so the circle Was again complete, and she had lea a- ed nothing. The drive was very short. They de- scended before the big stone hotel. From sheer force of habit her eyes took note that this house was called the Windsor, and some vague, vagabond thought turned for a moment to the glory of England’s Windsor. Then Mr. Belden had escorted her to a chair in a retired position, and ask- ing her patience for a moment, he turned to the offic>. As lightning sometimes rips the mid- night sky apart, giving all the country- side its natural colors for the moment, so in that flashing instant Daphne saw the full horror of the situation her hopeless position toward this man, whose companion she had somehow be- come without her own consent or will. Her apathy of mind was gone—her brain was working swiftly. Woman- like in danger, her first impulse was flight. She rose and swiftly turned toward the front door, but instantly a uniformed attendant laid his arm across the lock and she understood—he had been warned not to let her pass. She stood helplessly—at gaze. Her proud delicacy made a scene impossible. She turned to the weapons of the weak, she called up all her woman’s finesse, dissimulation and cunning. At the office counter a gentleman ahead of Belden was slowly and care- fully entering .is name in the guest book. As he dropped the pen and reached out for the room key the clerk extended, Belden dipped the pen—and In that instant Daphne's inspiration came! It was a desperate chance, but it might win a temporary safety. Swiftly Slie reached MBelden’s side; her hand was on his arm; her face was white as marble; her voice low and calm, but very distinct. ° “Brother,” she said, and then again: “Brother, don’t waste time in inspect- ing and comparing rooms this morning. As far as I am concerned, take what- ever offers, that I may quickly retire and see a doctor. You have a resident physician, I suppose?’ she asked the clerk. “Yes, madam; but ust yet. In half an hour I can send im to you lf you wish. Ah, yes; I will not fail to send him at once to your room.” “Thanks,’’ she murmured, and turned away to her former seat. At the word “brother,” spoken so naturally and calmly by Daphne, the red blood had surged up into Belden’'s face. For a moment he caught his lip under sharp white teeth and the pen had wavered in his hand. Then he had answered, “Yes, dear, I'll make all the haste I can’’—had crossed out the word or two already written, and registered as Mr. Selwyn Brown and sister, Miss Dora Brown, of Albany, N. Y. : Daphne had pleaded frantically with the doctor to establish a nurse in her foom. He intimated that a nurse was not really needed, but her mounting itement caused him to change his mind and she feit with the quiet nurse On guard she had secured 24 hours of safety in which to arrange her confused thoughts, to plan for escape. “To go-to go where?” For the world at this moment held her to be an outcast, disgraced, dishonored! Rut she knew herself sinless, her children had a right to love her! Her children! "Oh, God! oh, God!" she _ wailed. “Daphne-May and my little Philip!” She saw at last what her reckless flight from her dishonored home would cost her. “And yet I have not Stumbled!” she moaned, and knew in her heart a woman must avoid even the appearance of evil. “But, dear heaven, I cannot live without my babies! I—I wil) return! It is Philip who is guilty, not I! I will demand my little ones. They are my flesh and blood, my’very soul! He may keep his freedom! I will endure all things, so long as I regain my chil- dren! I will be brave! I will tell the truth, and Philip must believe me, for I never lied to him in my life! But have | the necessary money for my expenses?” She gasped in terror. Then she ovened the little under-pocket she had worn oh her way to the pic. ture gallery in New York and drew out the envelop, and, finding the con- tents safe, broxe into laughter and kissed the fresh crisp bank notes that meant her rescue. While across the hall, in the oper door of another suite of rooms, sat Stanley Belden, a book upon his knee, but with his slow dark eyes fixed steadily upon the doors be- ne _—— Daphne had intrenched reeit. of whom he is not about The next afternoon, while the nurse Was out buying a few articles for Daphne's use, Belden had come to the door of her sitting room and asked for admittance, saying low, “I have a pass- ey, Daphne. not force me to use it. But see you I must!"'—then after a pause, “IT will!” She opened the door and he entered. He noted at a giance that the flowers had sent earlier by Anton had not nm rearranged, but lay there stiffly crowded together. He took her hands very gently and at her with haggard eyes. Three : ess nights, one of gambling, one of traveling and a third at watching, had told ppon him.

On'y bv crime can thev be broken!” “And your unworthy husband has criminally broken faith with you and given you two rivals at least in the heart you still hold precious.” She winced, but went steadily “His sin does not release me lovalty. I am still his wife!” or the first time he tised brutality in speech. ‘‘Indeed—and under the pres- ent circumstances, how long do you think he will be in taking another wife?” She stared at him—then with a sharp cry hid her eyes against the back of her interlaced fingers. She swayed a little and cried: “Oh, God, my life Is ended—dead and done with!’ He drew her to the sofa, and sank ing them with kisses, insisted, ‘‘No, your life is just begun. Let me take you away from every one. The past is dead, Daphne, but we have the present and the future!’’ She dragged her hands away. “‘Leave me!’ she commanded. ‘‘Leave me at once!’ “No!—in™ every other thing and for- ever [ will obey you! But never so long as my body is responsive to my will, shall I leave you!” He drew her to on one knee before choked, husky tones: ‘“s am your slave, your knight, your devotee! Come to a home of my mak- ing, God's fairest! To a kingdom of love, Where shame and sorrow can touch you no more! Fate meant you for me, Daphne! It is not too late — then come to me, beloved. We can, find happiness together even yet! What does it matter what anyone thinks— we can defy the world! Ignore it!”’ The red of indignation swept hotly over her white face. “Oh, what infamy!’ “Infamy? he flung back Savagely. “You may hold me in slight esteem, may consider mv life to have begn ig- nobly idle and selfish—but even so, I fail to see the ‘infamy’ of asking a wor- shiped woman to be my wife! To wear my name and to guard my honor to the grave!” She stretched her arm against the sofa back, and rested her forehead on it. Tears rose to her eyes. Wounded and shamed, she had misunderstood. “Pardon me,”’ she. whispered faintly. But he went on urgently, desperately. “Perhaps you care for the world, for its good opinion, its approval? Well, then, my beloved, I'll whip it to you, and you will set your little foot upon its neck! It is naturat for you to rule, and rule you shall! Only love me, dear! Daphne, you are very cruel to me, and to me only. ¥c_r heart is a fount of tenderness for every other thing that suffers—and 1 suffer, yet you are coldly serene!” “T am sorry,’ she said drearily. ‘But I think I have exhausted my power of loving.”’ He recalled the passionate ardor show- ing in her virgin eyes as she left the altar with Philip, and with a groan dropped his dark head on Daphne's knee. Long-restrained passion pulled hard against the leash of reason and self-control une blood rushed through his veins like fire. The faint warmth of her body struck through her garments to his cheek, and every nerve in his great body thriiled at her nearness. Some evil spirit, like a veritable presence, whispered in his ear: “You have ensnared -this lovely woman, but you have not won her; cannot bribe, cajole or charm her. Re- call the past. Did violation give you pause then? Ask—if denied, take!’ He gave a short laugh, lifted his head, looked at her with the devil in his face. Her heart plunged in her side. He saw a throbbing in her soft throat, and reaching, pressed his lips upon the little brown mole—the dev- il’s beauty mark. She made no sound, only struggled, flercely struggled to her feet. “Since you refuse to my pleading the meres alms of love,” she muttered, “why may I not take all—you are powerless!” Her lips trembled a little, but her eyes were cool and steady upon his half-closed, burning ones, as she an- swered gently: “I think—I think be- cause you are still a gentleman.” Presently he turned. “You are mis- taken, Daphne. You are safe from my madness not because I am a gentle- man, but because for the first time in all my life I love another better than myself. This last. maddest pas- Sion of my life has changed into a love so great that I long first to serve you, to secure your happiness my be- loved!" and in that moment reached his life’s highest point of feeling: And yet,” he groaned, “you wil! not be- lieve me!” “Almost I think I do now,” she an- swered slowly. She knew herself, without relatives, without means, without asylum; knew scandal clouded her name. This man was rich, was powerful, and loved her. He could lift her above those who had mocked and betrayed her. Belden held her hands, and drew her very gently to him. ‘Trust me, Daphne,”’ he entreated, He touched her forehead with his lips. “Give -me your promrise.”’ For one moment she seemed to yield, then with a cry of anguish she gasped: “My children! My little children! I cannot—oh, I cannot do it! . Heaven itself would be but desert desolution without them!

The formula is as follows: Two ounces Rose Water; one ounce Spirits of Cologne; four ounces crys- tallized Sartoin (skin food). Put the Sartoin into a pint of hot water (not boiling) and when dissolved . ani cooled, add the Rose Water and Cologne Spirits; then strain through a fine cloth.

He clung hard to self-control, and went on speaking: “Never again shall you know the deadlv insult of receiving a husband’s letter of brutal passion for another ter woman! He halted, Daphne’s body had stiffened, became rigid in his arms. She drew back and looked at him with contemptuous eyes, blue and cold as ice. She wrenched herself free, and, looking him straight in the eyes, said: “You are the sender of that anony- mous letter, Mr. Belden. Otherwise you eould never have known of its con- tents. Ah, you are vile!’ and she made a gesture of repulsion.

You must learn to control this flow sf aig so that no muscular action. of the throat can shut ft off. Open the throat wide, as was described in the preceding talk; now start your note by the pressure of the breath. The physi- cal sensation should be first an effort on the part of the diaphragm to press the air up against the chest box; then the sensation of a perfectly open throat, and lastly the sensation that the air is passing freely into the cavities of the head. The quantity of sound is controlled by the breath. In diminishing the tone the opening of the throat remains the same. Only the quantity of breath giv- en forth is diminished. That is done by the diaphragm muscles. ¢ ‘‘Filare la voce,” to spin the voice from a tiny little thread into a breadth of sound and then diminish again, is one of the most beautiful effects in singing. It is accomplished by the con- trol of the breath, and its perfect ac- complishment means complete mastery of the greatest difficulty in learning to sing.

Helen Oldfield Agrees With the Poet That Love Is Woman's P Whole E-vristence. ITH the modern talk of the bondag» of woman to the tyrant man, the W abundant admonition and exhortation to the effect that all women should live their own lives, firmly putting aside the love which might hinder, the ties which might hamper them, the indubitable fact is that marriage is and ought to be the ehief end of woman in general; that her primary mission in life is that of wife and mother. True, itis not her only one: there is muth room, and more work, in the world for women who have neither husbands nor children— “For only suppose all the women were married, By whom would superfluous babies be carried? Where would be the kind aun’ who would knit all the stockings? And nurses to do up the trottings and rockings?"”’ To be sure, modern science has abolished the cradle as pernicious to Infan- tile health of body and mind, and home-knit hosier~ is a thing of the past, nevertheless the pyinciple is the same, and the lines may be accepted as a fit- ting figure of speech. None the less the tradition of all nations, corroborated by the stronger tes timony of sacred history, is that the rirst woman was created as companion and wife for the first man. Woman was an afterthought, so ‘. speak, a fact which is often quoted as substantial proof of the saying that second thoughts are best. It is not to be denied that Eve was the source of much trouble to the Adam whom she was intended to bless, being the cause of “man’s first disobe- dience and his fall,’ still, as the mother of mankind, she should be gently judged of her children. The lesson of all the ages is that woman, however gifted, finds her most congenial abiding place in ‘‘the sweet, safe corner of the household fire, be- Sind the heads of children.’””’ Love makes a woman’s world. ‘‘Man’s love is of man's life a thing apart; ’'Tis woman's whole existence.” - —— | Winter Coats Skirt Bar Every fine Broadcloth the season’s selling— values up to $30—at. ..

| Hueston Holds * His Pool Title by _ Desperate Spurt . —_— eS ws

wa Defeats Keogh, 600 to 584, in Bril- liant Finish—Now Seeks to Play De Oro to Satisfy Public.

HOMAS A. HUESTON of this city gained permanent posses- sion of the diamond championship pool emblem by a game finish in his mateh with Jerome B. Keogh of Buffalo at the Rex Billiard Hall Wednesday night. Hueston started 0:! with the score 406 to 322 in Keogh’s favor and the final score was 600 to o&4. ‘to 178 for Keogh. ‘Hveston won because he played in ex- cellent form and was lucky, and be- cause Keogh was badly off in his play. Keogh led Hueston for the first two nights’ play because he was able to p off long shots after the break, and then get the bunch scattered and clear the board. Wednesday night he missed ohe long shot after another and Hues- tou cleaned up. ‘Both men displayed great gameness. Keogh was as and quiet as ever, and when Hueston needed but 17 balls 16 win and he had to get 60 odd, the Buffalo man playea his best pool. Hues- ton was not denied, and aithough Keogh played sterling safety even in che last frame, Ifueston tore off an almost im- possible long shot and then sent anh- other ball in the side for ithe two neces- sary to give him the match. Wants Match With De Oro. After the match Hueston made an unique proposition. Although he has won the championship emblem, he con- siders that his title is not quite clear as long as Alfredo De Oro remains un- defeated. De Oro was rormer champion, but forfeited. Hueston offers to play De Oro a 600-point match for $500 a side and to allow his opponent BW points handicap. WHueston will not be forced to play for the emblem, as it is out of competition now. De Oro is in St. Louis at present playing briliards. Every seat was filled, every inch of standing room was taken and many men were turned away Wednesday night. In all nearly 400 persons’ wit- nessed the game. Few indeed but re- mained to the finish, as after Hueston’s uphill fight and Keogh’s game finish both men were credited with a chance to win out. Hueston Off With Rush. When the match started at 8:10 p. m., Keogh having pocketed the last ball Tuesday night, had the privilege of breaking. Hueston missed a combina- tion shot and scattered the balis, but Keogh was nervous and ran only two balls. Tlueston pocketed six and missed. Keogh ran the remaining seven balls on the table. Hueston got 14 balls out of the next frame, which started him off in the lead. Keogh had a bit of bad luck in the next frame. After Hueston had missed cool Hueston pocketed 100 more balls than Keogh Wed- mesday night, the score for the night’s play being 278 for Hueston the table, Keogh miscued on an easy shot, jumping the ball high in the air, and Hueston cl®aned up. In the next two frames Hueston gained 29 more balls because Keogh Went after the long shot on the break and missed. Then Keogh struck his stride, and in two frames picked up 30 balls when Hueston failed to pick off the ball left out from the bunch on both occasions after the break. Hueston made a com- bination in the next frame and got the 15 balls, although he was forced to play safe in the middle of the frame. Keogh Not Up to Form. That Keogh Was off form was shown in the next frame, when Hueston scratched on the break and Keogh missed a comparatively easy shot, scat- tering the balls. Hueston ran eight balls, but missed an easy side shot, but still the score was 113 to 65 in fa- vor of Hueston. Keogh made another costly error in the next frame, when in shooting over the balls he missed and Hueston pock- eted 12 balls. Hueston failed to make a legal break in the next frame and Keogh got 10 balls after Tommy broke over again. A combination that went, followed by some careful shooting, gave Hueston 15 more points. Buffaloman Misses Long Shots. Keogh again tried for the open shot after the break, but missed, and it was the same old story, only Keogh pock- eted the last’ ball when Hueston got poor position. Again Keogh was tempt- ed to go after the long shot in the next frame. this aim was no better than before and 15 more balls on the champion’s string was the result. Hues- ton got the best of the next two frames also because Keogh could not pocket the balls from the upper end of the table. Gradually Nears the Finish. Hueston began to miss the long shots that he had been making. He also fell down on’ a combination shot, but, however, he Kept gradually nearing the goal. Finally the score was 599 for Hueston, but Tom scratched. Keogh ran 15, and it was only py taking a long chance on the No. 2 ball, which he picked off the bunch and rolled up to the end pocket, that Hueston managed to win out. He had left an easy shot for the:side pocket, which he made, giving him the match, 600 to 584. The fina) night’s play: Hueston (322)—6 14 15 14 1500 0 8 15 7 8 1 12 15 14 14 0 10 8 15 1120 2.

He advises the National Pugilistic Commission to govern fights and fighters as the Na- tional Baseball Commission governs baseball and the A. A. U. the amateur sports. Jim believes with such an or- ganization to rule, fake fighting and illegal claims would be abolished en- tirely and the fight game might flour- ish the same as the other sports. Indianapolis boxers who have been down taking part in the bouts at Phil- adelphia complain of the conditions at- tending the Quaker City fights. They say that everyone is allowed to smoke Lin the hall and as a result the fighters have to go-‘in clouds of smoke, which hurts their breathing. They also say it is harder on the visitors than on the home boys, who are accustomed to such conditions. Honey Mellody refuses to be counted out of the welterweight title. He an- nounces that he has not quit the game, but has simply taken a layoff to re- cuperate, and then he will come back and demand fights with the best of them. a a

JOHNNIE COULON S AGAIN VICTOR Clever Chicago Bantam Beats Kid Murphy of New York for Third Time. _~

Special to the Post-Dispatch. PEORIA, Il, Jan. 20.—Johnnie Coulon of Chicago won the third and deciding battle over Kid Murphy of New York, beating the Easterner on a decision in a 10-round bout. Murphy was much stronger this time than at their last meeting, and gave ‘ie Chicago boy a harder fight. It was Murphy's fight until the fifth round, when Coulon started after the Italian viciously and made even rounds of the fifth and sixth sessions. In the seventh Coulon rushed Murphy off his feet and had the Easterner tired in the eighth. . Repeated hard lefts to_the face and rights to the ribs gave Cou- lon a big shade in the ninth and the session Found Murphy swinging wildly and holding the clinches to avoid punishment. Coulon was clever, as usual in block- ing body and face blows, allowing Mur- phy to land at vital points only in the early part of the battle.” At no time during the bout was either boy on the floor. Coulon landed a left jab to Mur- phy’s face almost at will during the entire bout and was stronger in the elinches. The bout was easily Coulon’s, although not by so large a margin as the last time they met here. in

| Remarkable

BY GEORGE QUALEY. (De Soto Stars Tenpin Team.) HE most remarkable game of ten- pins I ever took part in was at | El Rei o. Ok., wnen I was bowil- ing with the Wichita, Kan., team in the Southwestern Bowling Association in 1903. The association was composed of Wichita, Kan., and Oklahoma City, Perry and Blackwell, Ok. We were shooting against the El Reno trio at El Reno and the largest crowd that ever witnessed a match thefe was present and quite an amount of money wagered on the result. We won the first two games and when We came to the third I thought we had it all along. A good bowler does not have to look at the score. By keep- ing track of the strikes, spares and misses he about knows how the game is going all the time. I figured we were in the lead, but after the game the El Reno team was declared the winner of the game. We were all surprises and started looking over the sheets. In one frame we found where an Ei Reno man had been given 24 on a@ spare. The best he could possibly have got was 20. We protested, but the E crowd laughed at us. [If we anything we would have been but finally got the captain of the Reno team to agree to a compromise by rolling the game over. We won easily. There is no rule covering the point. It is thought impossible for mistakes to occur with two scores being kept of a game and the bowlers watching the scorers. The mistakes do occur. *. J. Sweeney corrected a number of scores at the A. B. C. tournament tn this city. but he was given the wer to do so bv the A. B. C. officiata. Every once in a while a mistake crops up. After the captains of the teama sign the

score k they have no official redress if mistakes are discovered.

Special to the Post-Dispatch. SAN FRANCISCO, Jan. 30.—It looks as if the Neil-Attell fight may be de- clared off today, as the former is said to be subject to dizzy spells. Jim Neil says the fight will have to be post- poned. Frankie says he will fight re- gardiess of his father. Dr. Apple, the club physician, states that Frankie is in good physical shape, but there are indications that his stomach is not in the best possible condition. Joe Sullivan came to the night, stating that Frankie ahead and will not listen father may have to. say. Sullivan claims that Frankie was called home last night by his father. Attell is a 10- to-4 favorite. Stanley Ketchall arrived here last night. DICK O’BRRIEN KNOCKED OUT Champion Middleweight of Maine Loses in Fight. Special to the Post-Dispatch. ROCKLAND, Me., Jan. 30.—Dick O’Brien of Lewiston, stil] wearing the title of middleweight champion of Maine, and somé 30 pounds more of flesh than when he won it, was knocked out by Dave Sawyer of this city in the third round last night. Sawyer's rough-ana-ready tactics made but small impression on O’Brien in the first two rounds. ln the early part, of the third, however, the Lewiston man weakened suddenly and when Sawyer sent him to the fleor, O’Brien’s sec- onds threw the sponge into the ring O’Brien refused to abide by the sur- render and at the count of six was again on his feet, gamely taking his punishment. <A dozen blows ratned upon his face and body r:.-nt him down for keeps.

Special to the Post-Dispatch. ‘ PITTSBURG, Pa... Jan™ 30.—Leo Jones, the speedy St. Louis roller skater, had his collar bone broken in a mix-up here in last night’s race. Jones won the 2-mile championship Only a few nights ago. There were 21 starters in the five- mile prel'minary. It was a clean race until the fifth mile, when the weak ones began to drop out. .At the finish Rodney Peters of St. Louis, Frank Bacon of McKeesport and Joe Munch of Minneapolis came in so close that it looked like a dead heat, but Peters was in the lead by a foot. Time— 15:49. Jones’ accident was especially un- fortunate, as he had _ just issued a challenge, backed by the management of the Exposition Rink, to race any man in the world for two miles for $500 a side.

Hackenschmidt gained the first two falls, The time of the first fall was 7m. 35s., and that of the second 6m. 45s. Hackenschmidt, consequently, retains the title of champion. he match was under catch-as-catch-can rules, the best two out of three falls, with 10 minutes’ rest periods allowed between bouts. Rogers never became prominent in this country, and it was only when he went to England and secured a match with the mighty Hackenschmidt that he found himself in the limelight. His great bulk and apparent strength, to- gether with the fact that he claims Eng- land as his birthplace, has aroused un- usual interest among Britons in the coming match. Rogers is managed by Tom O’ Rourke.

LAJOIE IN REAL ESTATE DEALS Manager of Cleveland Team Invest- ing Baseball Harnings. Manager Lajoie of the Naps has en- tered into the real estate business. Real- izing that he cannot play baseball for- ever, he is investing his money in Cleve- land property. Besides purchasing build- ing lots Lajoie is also erecting houses on them, so that he will be able to get the rental. The Cleveland manager is just following the advice of President Kilfoyl, for the owner of the Naps made his fortune in real estate and building at the right time. Lajoile took out a building permit last week for a two-story frame dwelling to be situated at East One Hundred and Seventh street and Ashbury avenue. This is his first move.

Hughey Jennings has written Presi- dent Navin of the Detroit Club that he will be at hand on Feb. 15 to begin active work for the coming season. The Tigers will be taken to Little Rock, Ark., about March 1. Arthur Irwin, the veteran manager nd shortstop, who played with the Phillies ane years ago, has been en- gaged to coach the ball nine of the University of Pennsylvania this spring. He once helped the Quaker college team in the early 90s and made them the best in the country. Anderson has signed his contract ad aes with the Chicago White Sox and written Owner Comiskey that he is anxious to make the California tri with the Chicago Club. Anderson will probably be used only a8 4 utility man, and a pinch hitter, being especially com- petent in the latter. ; ey Comiskey says it is a bad outauy ts give a ballplayer all he de- mands, but he ahould be made to feel he is getting all he is worth. If a play- er is made to believe he ts ation all he is worth, he will exert himself to make himself worth more.

Dr. Washington West of Belleville, fa- tally stricken with heart disease while driving home from a professional visit to a patient, was borne unerringly to the front gate of his residence by his horse, Topsy. His sister, Miss Julia West, heard the buggy rattle up, and hearing no one dismount, went out to investigate. She found her brother sit- ting erect and unconscious, with the reins gripped in his hands. He died while being carried into the house.

Though not a church member, he was secre- tary of the St. Clair County Bible So- ciety, and performed many acts of char- ity. His son, Dr. Washington West Jr., and his daughter, Miss Ruth. were enter- taining friends at the theater when he died. He leaves, besides them, tw daughters, Mrs. W. T. Salter of Denver and Mrs. W. J. Stephani of Ridlev Fark, Pa. His wife died a@ year ago. Dr. West had suffered from heart disease since an attack of the grip four months ago.

Soe DR. KING CURES MEN - »* ee . ¢ ae aie Fe : r ¥ pe ate “ CHARGE OF TWO NEW YORK BANKS New York Institutions Are Expected to Pay Deposi- tors in Full. ————

* NEW YORK, Jan. 30.—Bank examiners took active charge today of the affairs of the New Amsterdam Bank and the Mechanics and Traders Bank, a State institution, both of which closed théir doors yesterday. These were included ir the Morse-Heinze-Thomas chain of banks, and after the closing of the Na- tional Bank of North America a few days ago there had been what amounted to a run on them. When the strain began, the Clearing House declined to further extend their credit. Fearing heavier withdrawals to- day, the officials of both banks de- cided last night to close their doors today. Action Was Expected. ‘ Although this action was not unex- pected among the bankers and well-in- formed men in the financial world, it found many of the bankers unprepared and caused them much inconvenience. As a result of the closing of these banks several others not in the important class met heavy withdrawals of deposits this morning. One of these was the Oriental Bank, where quite a run of depositors began as soon as the office was open for busi- ness. All depositors were paid prompt- ly and President Hugh Kelly announced that 12 other institutions had come to thé aid of the bank and that he hoped to be able to withstand the drain. Other Banks Strong. State Superintendent of Banks Wi)l- hams, who came down from Albany last and Traders Bank, said today that the general condition of banking institu- tions in this city is good and that weak- ness has developed only in special in- stances. The New Amsterdam banks capital is $1,000,000, and it has individual deposits of $2,08,272. The Mechanics and Trad- ers’ Bank is capitalized at $2,000,000. No statement of its deposits is yet ob- tainable. Will Pay in Full. The depositors in the New Amsterdam will probably not lose a dollar. It is also claimed that the Mechanics and Traders was solvent at the close of busi- ness yesterday, and that its depositors will not lose a dollar. Both banks were closed to prevent runs on them today. After the first act of “Manon Les- caut” last evening at the Metropolitan Opera House, some one told Enrico Ca- ruso, who was singing the leading part, about the closing of the New Amster- dain National Bank. The singer has $40,- 000 on deposit there. Only those who know Caruso can imagine the effect of the announcement. Shuts Himself in Room, He slammed the door ef his dressing room, fell back in a chair, and for some ti. 1e was deaf to all appeals. “Oh, my money! My money?’ sobbed. When told that the bank would prob- ably pay in full the tenor recovered somewhat and went on for. the second act, which he sang with his accustomed fullness of voice. It was said that very many others of he | Receiver Is Appointed. WASHINGTON, Jan. 30.—Bank Ex- aminer Charles A.
