He found the $100 pnd gave it to the visiting Chicagoan. “Here, wait a minute,” exclaimed the borrower, as the Senator passed over the roll; “I'll give ’ you my note for it. # Me . “Don’t want your note,” was the reply. “Why not?” asked the Chicagoan. >. “Well,” said the Senator, dryly, Vif you won't _ pay me, you won't pay the note.” i CAMPBELL’S TIPS FOR PLUNGERS.

The lunch will be the kind they will get when That is, the tegeher will go in and eat, leaving the pupils to sit outside in the machine, hoping a banana cart or a weiner- wurst runabout will com? past. In the afternoon the Class will practice road breathing. The instructor will have a hand bel- lows filled with sand and dust. He will pass along the line, blowing this in the face of each pupil. until the subject bleeds at the ears. The balance of the day will be devoted to im- provising. _Improvising is making automobile parts of iron junk, barbed wire, rope, old farm

e¢ slayer of a royal George he stuck a successful definition of insanity into the law and opened the way to generations of imitators. are While they have not approached the use of it made by the supreme master of Anglo-Saxon ad- vocates, they have been shrewd enough to follow without change a definition so perfect in plausi- bility; and it is Erskine’s plea nearly verbatim that remains imbedded in the law, both statute and judicial, of English-speaking countries. The arch-advocate himself who saved the man that shot at a King in a box at the end ite have saved, indeed, the slayers of Presidents; and his wording of the excuse repeated by iess able tongues has made*deep mischief with the law that protects human life. It is to Erskine largely that weak. men and men in rage owe their license and consequent encouragement to avenge their own redl and fancied wrongs. And to the influence of his so- called “humanitarian” theory—which being hard and fast must of necessity fail of discrimination —will partly be charged the weakness of the law which is offered as the excuse of lawlessness, of mobs and lynchers; of the unwritten law. A toning up of the law’s strength cannot be had without making some drastic corollaries to the Erskine principle. So. long as proved insanity may not only save a homicide from death but open the way to possible eventual freedom the law lacks forbidding restraint. When life incarceration is offered as the certain alternative, when a homicide proved insane’ by his own lawyers and accounted insané by a jury of his peers is thereby fixed in the status of a. dangerous maniac and given immediately and irrevocably into the State’s keeping for the pro- tection: of society, a considerable advancé in government will be recorded without violation of. any humanitarian principle. Justice will be strengthened and juries will be freer to dispense it. Homicides for many reasons would be -re- duced in number. In a word, when a man is excused as insane ~ oe WAS

by a jury his fate for all time should be fixed

which to operate: When careful men cannot teil the exact truth to save their lives we may ap- preciate the .vame of mind in which the psalm- ist found himself when he remarked: ‘I said in my haste that all 'men are liars.” ipso facto, requiring nothing further. ‘Escaping the gallows, the subject should be legally dead. If there is seeming harshness in presenting the alternative of. an incurable status and life in- carceration to the homicide whc disclaims re- sponsibility, assuredly it is more than balanced by the consideration of general welfare. Justice will not recede from Erskine’s plea, but many jurists will confess that its effects and in- fluen¢e have been more harmful than beneficial. The necessity for a check upon its baleful results and a balance for its operation must commend itself to thoughtful lawyers and commissions en- gaged in recommending revision of laws. ss. A a a a TRAGEDIES OF THE RAIL. Most of the thousands of fatalities and injuries resulting from the operation of American. rail- The’ record for years has been vo appalling as to attract world- wide discussion Many safety appliances are in use, but their adoption has not been either general or com- plete. There are Federal laws on the subject which have been ‘enforced very feebly or wholly ignored. While all of these devices cost, money, it. is probable that every railroad in the land might have been fully equipped with them if one- tenth of the money raised on watered railroad securities by exploiters of the Harriman type had been used for that purpose. __- Many railroads are poor, either as a result of overcapitalization,, mismanagement or déficient traffic, but not one of them need be without these things if its managers were persuaded either by humanity or fear of the law that it was desirable thus to safeguard life and limb. Considerably more than ¢ miilion of the best men in America ate employed in railway trans- portation. It is a shameful fact that each year the casualties among them equal those of a great battle. Gettysburg, Chattanooga, Chicka- mauga, Chancellorsville and the Wilderness repre- sent fearful voluntary sacrifices for ‘moral and patriotic ideas. The tragedies or the rail stand for nothing but indifference and greed. Two Federal courts in Chicago have recently convicted various railway compantes of violating the laws on this subject. Nothing less than a general movement by such tribunals from coast to coast will meet the demands of the situation. ; | DIFFICULTIES IN THE WAY OF TRUTH. Gov. Hughes may never have held a responsible newspaper position, but in &n address to the Editorial Association of his State the other day he showed that he was well informed as to one of the greatest perplexities of journalism. “The most difficult thing,” he Said, “is to see a thing and then tell what you see. For that reason the newspaper mar has the tcughest of all jobs. Telling the truth is a most difficult operation one it is seldom performed with com- plete success.’ Speaking generally, the trouble is that no two men ever see anything just alike. Granting that they are equally honest and equally free from a possible motiye to indulge in misrepresentation, we have to take into account differences in ca- pacity as well as in temperament. One man will see much more than another. He has the perceptive faculty well developed. One man has imagination while another man has none. The imaginative man will not deliberately falsify, but there will be embellishments in his narrative which some people will pronounce baseless. A highly emQtional and romantic per- son will witness an episode and describe it in a fashion that will appear to be fictitious, while a stolid man will see only the obvious and miss the most interesting phases of the occurrence. +t As w =-_— wa THE RIFT IN THE LUTE, | The clarinettist of the Millstadt (Ill.) band, being sued for breach, of promise, excuses his failure t@#marry the fair plaintiff on the ground that “I had to choose between her and music, which I have decided to make my profession, though I have been until now only a farmer.” And he winds up with the withering charge: “She was lacking in musical temperament.” Since this is manifestly the most cruel and biighting accusation which a musician can make, and since the case becomes in effect the trial of the voung lady on that charge, it behooves just-minded persons before convicting her to inquire upon what ground the charge is based. In answer to this inquiry we discover the sole fect that she remonstrated against the noise he was in the habit of making twice a week at. rehearsals in the town hall upstairs over the grocery store. We gather that this lusty-lunged husbandman, fresh from the fields with his artistic enthusiasms. made himself heard above cornet and tuba, trom- bone, bassoon and eke bass drum, else she could not have singled him out to particularize her remonstrance, nor would he have resented it as a personality. We take it that this is the crux cf the case and we conceive hat a clarinet with a pair of deep ‘bucolic bellows behind it might emit some fairly terrific blasts, especially when manipulated by horny fingers inured to hay hook and husking peg. That these apoplectic and ear-splitting. blasts would inevitably develop a rift somewhere is certain. Something must give way under the compression and it is not surprising to find/a crack in the lute of love itself. But we are trable to find that a remonstrance against sheer volume and piercing ‘strength of tone implies a want of critical taste, of appreciation, or artistic temperament, or signifies an empty soullessness like unto an aching and perhaps echoing vold. The. fault, we think, lies rather with the de- fendant, who should have stvck to the less mili- tant jewsharp or learned to fiddle “Turkey in the Siraw.” In no event will the- charge of a want of artistic temperament in the young lady be sus- tained in bar of her suit for the breach. On the contrary, judgment is found for the fair plaintiff in the full amount of damages asked, together with double or punitive damages and costs.

+0o@ PROTECTING WITNESSES IN COURT. | To the credit of a judge presiding in a Chicago trial for murder it is to be said that he interfered the other day in behalf of a young woman witness | who was grossly bullied and insulted by law-; yers. , It may be that the learned gentlemen of the bar can present plausible reasons why witnesses should be subjected to verbal assaults worse than those which are inflicted upon prisoners at the bar, but if so thcy have never taken the trouble to do so. The only inference jis that they. pre- sime upon the protection of the court and in- culge in language and methods which anywhere else would subject them to chastisement.

KING SADLY MISSES AMERIGAN DUGHESS Absence Due to Mother’s Death forced a Cancellation of Concert.

1.—The Dowager Duchess of Man- chester’s absence in America, due to her mother’s death, forced a cancellation of a dinner to be fol- lowed by a concert with American singers, Which had been arranged for the King Thursday. The Duchess manages all entertainments for the King when he is at Biarritz, and no one else 80 thoroughly understands the business, Her absence is a serious blow to him in view of his pas os visit to that resort. Messages Of condolence were sent the Duchess by the King, Queen and all members of the royal fam- ily, while the accumulation of telegrams and letters of sympathy sent to her housé in Grosvenor Square is enormous. 3 Mrs. Yzanga, the Duchess’ of the American social invasion, and the older London remember well her beauty, wit and charm. SOLVING T HE MYSTERY OF EDWIN DROOD IN A PLAY LONDON, Feb. 1.—The production of Comyn Carr's play, “Edwin Drood,”’ at His Majesty's Théater, was, of great interest throughout England, because the play had been presented the solution of the un- finished Dickens novel. The fault found by critics in their reviews of the play, in which Mr. Beerbohm Tree has the leading role, Was that the mystery was dispelled in the sec- ond act by permitting the audience to see Jasper in the opium den when he imagines he ts murdering Mr. Drood. From that point on the play becomes a mere pre- sentation of the Dickens character with the story left out. Jasper, in the continuation of the play, is hardly able to hold almost the entire interest. whieh he is expected to do. OLD EGYPT AS POLITE AS IS SOCIETY TODAY LONDON, Feb. 1.

GE VARIANGE NEW HURDLE FOR GUPID Stop

Asks Law to and December Weddings. Bertillon May Dr.

PARIS, Feb. 1.—If legislators would heed the ad- vice of Dr. Jaques Bertillon, they would pass a law which would forbid the marriages between men and women of great difference in age. He bclieves that the marriage between a man of €0 and a woman of less than 30 ig.detrimental not only to those direct- ly involved, but also to the country as a whole. Dr. Bertillon says that men of © seldom beget children and in some cases, if not in the most, where they do become fathers, it is worse for the community. France, says Dr. Bertillon, needs sensible love matches which shall result in good, heaithy, happy children. The country, according to Nim, and he quotes statistics, is depopulating fast and this makes it more necessary that the children which are born shall be healthy ones. Says Dr. Bertillon: “Whenever I read an announcement which tells me that ‘M, N., aged 60, is going to marry Mlle. X.., aged 25,’ I become sad. I pity the girt, for I know she will either never be a mother, or if she will be one she will have ‘unhealthy children. I pity France because money has become a factor in matrimony. Young women sell themselves, for this is what such a@ marriage: means, to old, decrepit bachelors who were too wicked or too selfish to marry when they were young. Something should be done to prevent such dangerous and disgusting practices. Between five and ten years’ difference in ages of marriage candidates is enough.

LONDON, Feb. 1}—Princess Hatzfeldt proved her- self to be a fairy godmother indeed to the then Countess Arthur Fabbricotti, who has just married Baron Charles Aliotto, counselor to the Italian Em. bassy in Paris. The Princess (who was’ Miss Clara Huntington of New York), had set up the Countess in business in her hat shop here, given her a stock of expensive millinery and tdéok wealthy customers to her. ‘But somehow or other the hat shop did not flour- ish. The “Countess, a rarely beautiful woman of [rish-French birth, who has visited America and is well known in New York society, found she wags not fitted for trade, So the beneficent Princess made the match with Baron Aliotti and provided the tn us- seau and the wedding breakfast. As if that was not enough, the Princess,. having put the Countess in business, is helping her to leave it in the most hon- orable fashion. The Princess paid all the creditors as well as the rents due for the shop and the Count- ess’ little flat, and now, finally, is selling the business itself.

“GANNED” SONGS FOR NEXT GENTURY Gramophone Records Placed Vacuum Containers to Iilus- trate Progress.

PARIS, Feb. 1.--Twenty-four pramophone records by famous living musical artists were solemnly e¢n- tombed in the crypt of the Paris Opera House. The records were Very carefully packed in a cop- per casket, from -which the alr was exhausted. The casket was soldered, and placed in another metal box, from which the air was also pumped out. The box was then -inclosed in a special receptacle in the wall of the crypt with an insoription requesting that it remain intact for 100 years. A parchment scroll giving a list of the records and full instructions for their use when the box is at length opened was deposited in the archives of the Opera. A modern gramophone was placed in another her- metically sealed box, also containing full instrue- tions for the benefit of the men who are expected to use it in the year 2007. The entombed records include operatic arias sung. by Tamaguo, Caruso, Plancon, Mme. Patti, Mme, Melba, and Mme. Calve, violin solos by Kubelik, and choruses by singers of the Scala Theater at Milan. M. Malherbe, the conservator of the museum of the Opera, explained that the idea governing the proceedings was to put on record for future genera- tions one of the aspects of the music of the twen- tieth century, what was sung and how the best sing- ers sang it. It was also intended to show the progress in the art of registering sound by these examples of the highest perfection yet attained to be compared per- haps a hundred years hence with the records of that day. STAGE CRIME STUDY IS DEDICATED TO THE LORD ROME, Feb. 1.—Gabriele D’Annunzio, the erratic Italian poet and dramatist, has just completed a new play which he dedicated to “The Lord of the Uni- verse.’’ The dedication is formulated in a veritable church bymn which ends with “Amen.” The play is called “La Nave’’ (The Ship). It deals with the criminal classes of Venice in olden days. Some of the worst crimes that ever happened in the world are described. Scores of girls are to be shot on the stage if the play is presented. Wild beasts are supposed to be brought on the ctage and human beings, nude, or almost so, are to be thrown to these beasts. Whether the play will have the same reception which was given to his last dramatic compositions is not certain. The last play he wrote was so badly re- ceived on its first night that it was never presented again. One dramatic critic says of “La Nave’: “Perhaps Sig. D’Annunzio dedicated it to the Lord in order to gain favor for the play. Whatever his intentions might be, it is best to ‘write » good play with no dedication than a bad play with a dedication of such importance.” i1AS LIGHTS? NEVER! VENETIANS WANT MOON MILAN, Feb. 1—All the artists in Venice, besides the best-known aud most influential people in society, are up in arms for the defense of Venice’s moonlight. It must be explained that this esthetic campaign is the result of a decision by the Venetial municipality to light.the Grand Canal, St. Marks Basin, and other canals by incandescent gas burners. It is not denied that the present system of lighting is scanty and inefficient, yet the artists ang their supporters are vigorously condemning the suggested improvement. Incandescent gaslight, they say, gives a blending of crude light which would utterly destroy the beautiful colors for which Venice by moonlight enjoys world-wide fame, Already a petition hag been forwarded to the mu- nicipal authorities asking them to rescind their order. Among the signatories are artists, poets and writers, including several English perean who have settled. in. Venice.

Scherzinger, Otto Buder, Increasing interest is manifest in the subject of charity since the north winds h: e howled and the flakes of snow have evidenced stern winter in his character of relentless fury. While the cold penetrates every nook and crevice, and even presumes to in- trude to‘the innermost protected locali- tles, society utilizes many devices te outwit this grim interloper of cold and with thoughtfulness born of the spirit of cultivated charity, renewed efforts are being made to neutralize the suf- fering which the cold brings to the poor. For many years St. Louis has not faced the present néed of work for the unfortunate poor ag the number of entertainments for the benefit of charity has increased accordingly. _ A practical movement most worthy of the season is prevailing among the vast number of members of society. Mothers of children have joined the army of re- lief by searching warm clothing out of their attics and distributing to the shiv- ering, hovering unfortunates who would otherwise suffer intensely with scanty garments scarcely protecting their thin little bodies from the cold. “As my children romp in the comfort- able warmth of' their nursery, protected by. warm, soft garments, I think of the other children of mothers who love them as I do mine, but who cannot supply the warm nursery and warm clothing. This thought prompted me to go to my attic of half-worn and outgrown gar- ments and to distribute them where they lwould serve the good purpose of com- fort for the needy.” This was the philo- sophical reasoning of a society woman, the mother of children, whose interest in society only inereases her desire to extend beneficence.. Saturday evening, for the benefit of charity, “‘The. Union Station” furnished amusement for an appreciative audience of society people at the Odeon. The Baptist Orphans’ Home was the bene- ficiary. Among those who took part were Mmes W. A. McCandless, C. E. Udell, Flora Barrow, Nora Hughes Morse, Al- bert Chappell, Wallace D. Simmons, Charles S. McKinney, F. A. Linneman, Jennie Bull, Dorsey A. Jamison; Misses F. .Burgess, Ethel Riddle, Margaret Mc- Candless, Caroline Fowler, Elizabeth Jamison, Kyle. Adams; Barney Ww. Frauenthal was in charge of the ticket office at the Union Station; and_ Ben Brown was train cailer. Colonel E. J.

NEW YORK, Feb. 1.—There is a new terror for those who own automobiles. The Street Cleaning Department has started a pound for them, and if an owner leaves his car outside unattended while he goes in to ..- a man about a dog it may be necessary to go down the next morning and redeem the machine. The idea is that automobiles ought not: to be left unattended in the street, because they get in the way, for one thing, and becauSe they hurt the pave- ments with the drip of gasoline. Inci- dentally, there is a city ordinance which such neglect violates. The first raid was an awe-inspiring The order of march was a In the buggy was spectacle. buggy and a truck. .| District superintendent Denice, who led the raid. In the truck were the chauf- feur, a policeman, some Street Cleaning Department foremen and one small boy, who hung on behind. Two Have Warning. The first halt was in Broadway, about Fiftieth street. but it was a false alarm, because the owner of a derelict car, that was seen there had not had a spe- cial warning, and,.the department was merciful in opening. the campaign. The party swept along after this, and fin- ally turned up Seventh avenue from Long Acre square. At Forty-ninth street there was a wild -cil fypm a smai] boy scout, and a car whose own- er, the Automobile Schools of America, had had warning. wes spied. So the bugle blew to halt the detach- ment, and the truck backed down to the front of the car. The.ch. -ffeur made fast to the truck and leaped to the steering wheel. Just then the man who owned the car appeared and seemed to be slightly annoyed. He wanted a re- ceipt for the car and he wanted to know @ lot of things, but he’ got lit- tle consolation. May Cost Him $20. Then the horn was tooted, the bu~vy led off, and the truck began to tow the: car to the encumbrance yard, in West Fifty-sixth street, with a large crowd in attendance. The owner will be able te line up with the East Side pedlers whose carts were confiscated and explain just why he ought to take $5 off: the cost of redemption of the car. He will do 1... if he gets it out for less than $20. The raids are going to keep on, and! the automobile district éxpects to have a lot of fun.

When Husband Died She Erected Tomb With Own Hands, Then Fell in Love With — Italian Statesman. eo > —

ROME, Feb. 1.—Sig. Achille Fazzari, one of the best-known followers of Gui- seppe Garibaldi, has related the romance of the English couple named Collins, who were, with taribaidi, the only in- habitants of the island of Caprera. On, that solitary rock the husband an wife lived a life full of romaftic detail, The couple spent 40 years in Caprera. They had « rustic cottage close to the seashore, but lived almost entirely in a small boat. They procured food for themselves by hunting and fishing. The cottage was on the eastern side of the island. When Mr. Collins went to the neighboring island of La Magdalena to make a few purchases or collect any let- ters, which at that time arrived every 15-days, his wife remained on board the hoat with her face hidden by a thick vell, thus causing many people to be- lieve in the legend which grew up that her beauty had been marred by scars produced by burning. Eveh Garibaldi, although he often saw the husband, had never been able to get a glimpse of the face of the wife. So great was the af- fection of the latter ror her ,.husband that when he died she constructed with her own hands a tomb. After her husband’s death, however, the woman changed her mode of living, and everybody could see her face, which was still remarkably beautiful. She had, too, a spendid figure, and with the grace of her person she united a varied and brilliant culture. As a widow she fell in love w'th Garibaldi. ‘TI have seen,” said Achille Fazzari, “tye numerous letters which.

TAKE HIS NOTE INSTEAD

Young Millionaire Tells His Class to Be Cautious in Charity.

“Never loan money to a friend; if you do you lose his friendship. If you know you will get it back and have to loan it, take his note and charge him interest.""—John D. Rockefeller Jr..

NEW YORK, Feb. 1.—John D. Rocke. feNer Jr. gave the members of his Bible class what he considered good advice on - money matters. It was the young mil- Wonaire’s first appearance before the Class for some months. He looked better health than usual. “I understand you have been discuss- ing the subject qf riches for some weeks,” he began, “and I feel that I should add my opinion. It is our duty ® be as helpful to our fellow-men as is possible, but it is also our duty to ex- ercise discretion and common sense in the iigthods we follow. A thoughtless man may do more harm in giving away money than he has any idea of, and then the beneficial effect is lost. It is not always money that the needy want. It is another er of help and .sym- pathy. “It Is the litem of many people to | follow the words of the Scripture liter- ally, and I want to-emphasize the fact that you cannot do that. It is not in- tended that you should take the teach- ings of Christ in a literal sense. For instance, in Matthew you will find the ‘words: ‘Gice to him who asks.’ It Would be next to impossible to give to every ‘one who asks you. Then, again, ‘you find the story of the rich young ruler, whoin Christ told to se]l all that he had, and give to the poor.” Can’t Take Scripture Literally. “A gentleman who addressed vou a Short time ago, informed you that for every sale there must 'be a buyer. If every rich man sold all he had, where wuld be the buyers? i "f do not see how it would be possible _. t@ take Christ's words in a literal sense and apply them to our everyday lives. The yconditions were different in Pales- tine. and Christ never intended that hig teachings should be literally inter- preted in all the ages to come. He meant the spirit—not the words. “The poor then were different. from the poor of today. By the poor he re- ferred to the poor in spirit, not. those in actual need of food and lodging. To give to everyone that asks would mean to create an army of beggars—people whose self-respect would be crushed and who would prefer to ask for what they wanted rather than to work for it. Heip your fellow-man all you can—help him ' to help himself, and he will bless you wr it. “There is another matter I want to talk to you about, and that fs the loan- ing of money. We all know that occa- sions arisé—a crisis in a man’s life _ when it becomes necessary for him to - borrow. The working man loses his po- in sition and his little savings are swept |} @way, and it will be a few weeks be- _ fore he obtains another position.

SPLIT

Revisionists Wilt Not Follow the Doctrines of Ledebour. a,

BERLIN, Feb. L—The continued ill health of Herr Bebel, the Socialist lead- er, points to his retirement from active political life at no late day. He has postponed ‘indefinitely his journey to America and has changed his apartment to the ground floor of his hotel in order to avoid walking up- scairs. Bebel informs the New York World and Post-Iispatch correspondent that although he thinks it desirable to avoid all travel and work which will lay an additional sirain on him, he is still in average health. Of course, he is not the man he was. Age and the incessant work cf 40 years have impaired his once iron frame. It is almost certain thet hé will never again make a great speech to rank with his orations of the past. Counsel Still Valuable. His wonderful memory fs still unim- paired, and his counsel is as valuable as «ver to his party. At hfs own sug- gestion the Poard of Managers of‘ the Social Democratic party held a confer- ence to diecuss his successor in the lead- ership of the party In the event of iil phealth cvmpelling his retirement. On the dest authority it can be said that Dr. Iedebour was decided upon. He is one of the Socialist members of the Reichstag from Berlin and is con- sidered u fanatic. He is trained in all of Bebel’s v.ews and is the rabid enemy of’ the Revisionists, as represented by Bernstein. On his accession to power, when it cones, it is certain that there will be a split in the hitherto united party. The Extremists will remain under Ledebour, but the Revisionists will acknowledge no other ‘cader than Bernstein. PRINCE OF SWINDLERS DEAD George Menolescu Gained $350,000 in America Alone.

TEACH WOMAN MUST FLL AD POCKETS projected will give you Ris ‘ex I

COLUMBUS, Ind., Feb. 1.—The Ladies’ Aid Society of the Central Christian Churéh of this city has adopted a novel method of raising money for the church. Each woman was requested, at a re- cent meeting, to._bring a yard of muslin. When the strips of goods were brought the women were instructed to mark off spaces on the strips and sew across the marks, thus making pockets in the strips. It was found that # pockets could thus be made. The women then took their: strips home, and fit is now their duty to obtain a plece ef money to place in each pocke: of the strip. A penny will do, but a $l) gold piece would be just as accept- able. By the measurement of the strips the women-declare that 40 pennies make a yard, instead of 36 _inches, as -s usually the case. The money will be placed in the pockets as rapidly as it can be earned, and later all the strips will be brought to the church and the money counted.

SEATTLE, Wash., Feb. 1—A special to the Dispatch: from Seattle says: The largest herd of caribou ever seen in the wilds of Alaska is gow crossing the Yukon River, working its way south- ward to escape the frigid cold of the Arctic region. Prof. Joseph B. Terry}, geologist, and several men connected with the United States survey in Alas- ka, have just sent reports to the coast of the enigration of the animals. The herd has been moving for 100 days now and there seems to be no end to the string as far as the eye can see. It is estimated that over 100,000 caribou have crossed the stream and wended their way into the fastnesses of the mountains of the lower Yukon. térri- tory.

ppNo COLD WEATHER YET

“Brief ‘Spells of Frostiness | Fail to Freeze the Harvest.

From all reports at the lecal Weather '. Bureau, the winter ice crop has so far ‘been appallingly short. all over the United States, and prospects for a good supply of natural ice for St. Louisans next. summer are anything but prom- ising. In St. Louis the average temperature has been high as compared with the s temperatures of the months of Novem- ber, December and January of other re- cent years, and equally warm weather has prevailed elsewhere in places where the St. Louis supply of ice is ordinarily cut. So there is so far no prospect of any fall in the price of the city’s ice next summer. Statistics obtained from Weather Fore- caster Bowie show the failure of the -.mercury to ‘descend this winter as it. has many times during the months of November, December and January in other years, January Avergase 34 Degrees. ‘The average temperature during the was 34 For November, 1907, the first real winter month,’the average temper- ature was 44.4 degrees, and for De- cember the average was 38 degrees. The total average for the three months ‘was 88.8, just one-tenth of a degree - lower than the average for the same “three winter months of the winter of "1906 and 1907, In the winter months :of November, “December and January, 1905 and 1906, the average temperature was 39.6 de- »grees, The average of the same three ‘months in the winter before that, 1904-5, was but 35.7 degrees. _ Going back for 2 years over the Weather Man's charts, it will be found that the coldest year's showing of the ‘same three winter months was @>- _eorded inthe winter of 1892-3, when the The same av- erage is recorded in the winter of 1903-4. The highest average —~for the same _-three months was recorded in the win- ter of 1890-91, when the charts show the mean temperature was 40.9 degrecs. That average was equaled in the win- ters of 1889-90 and the following year. During the week that has just passed snow has been falling much of the time in what are known as the ‘“‘winter crop regions.’—These regions are in Missouri, Kansas, Nebraska and the Southwes:. The snow in these districts at this time ‘Sawill be’ beneficial to ‘the winter crops, ~~ protecting them from the freezing weather that is apt to follow. The Weather Bureau chart of snow- te within the past 20 years shows that the heaviest fall during the months of ovember, December anl January hm the winter of 1903-4. A snowfa!! of 14.3 inches was recorded in January that winter. During the same month m the records show that © six inches of snew fell. Last winter the average was even smaller, here. The lowest temperature during™ t):> } last 20 years for the early winter months of ember, December and Janwary was in January, 1894, 11 degrees below zero. December, 1901, recorded the next ‘Jowest temperature, 10 degrees low “zero. The lowest Lemmpera Tene during passed, 9 degrees ‘above zero. The lowest temperature in Novetmber, was 23 degrees above zero exactly ed for the a oe temperature in December, 1907. n November, 1906, the lowest tempera- ture recorded was 10 degrees above zero n Becember of the same year the *. thermometer went down to. 6 degrees ebeve. ~ PATIENT UNDER KNIFE STOPS. ° “NEARER MY GOD TO THEE"

Beautiful Tributes to Dead Friend. ‘£

The St. Louis# Mirror of last week contained the following admirable trib- ute to the late Frank R. O'Neil, vice- president and assistant manager of the Post-Dispatch, from the pen oF William Marion Reedy: “No more beautiful spirit than Frank O’Neil’s ever lent its divinity to dust. There was—there is a man, for though he died last Monday morning, he is still and must ever be, to those who Knew him, not only a bright memory, but a fruitful inspirdtion to goodness and a sustenance in trial. How clean-minded he was! How full of the qualities of self-giving in the exercise of which he ever enriched himself the more. and his humor, the unpretentiousness of his mental and moral bigness, the kind- ‘liness that’ softened even the sternness of his principles, when that sternness seemed like to vent itself upon the wrong-doer rather than on the wrong. Aside from his vast capacity for the sane enjoyment of life, he had but one passion, and that was that he should never work injustice. “He was a great reporter. He could not only get news, but he could write it as lucidly as Thucydides. His style was the man—simple, sincere, buoyant, alive to life in all. its phases, and he knew .no subject matter comparable . with truth. “Touch him on any point of. conduct, and he rang clear and true. Idealist often to his own hurt, yet was he gifted with a common senge that penetrated and dissipated all sophistry and delusion. The last thing in the world he thought of was money. In business—and he was & superb business man—he was, as someone has said, always afraid he’d get the better of the other man in a deal. “Frankness marked all his dealings. Me might soften his expression of opinion of you, but you always got: his real opinion. Trust him always, every- where, to damn treacherous flatteries without winking. Journalism he con- ceived as a high office, something pon- tifical yet pastoral, an exalted priest- hood of public .service. There was for him no compromise with right, yet he loved men, all men, even though he, might fight their purposes with all the strength of his character. “Companionable he was’ supremely, and glorious in argument, what time we talked up the dawn. His laughter, rich and ringing, none might resist, and his humor saved his intellectual and moral rigor from all suspicion of priggishness. For the frills and fritinancies of life he had a- fine, a copious, yet withal, an amused scorn, and pretension shriveled before his burning honesty. ‘‘In writing he used the simplest words in their most natural sequence, and his lucidity was the utterance of clear thinking and seeing. He kept ever his youthful verve, and there was a freshness of sympathy in him that: was essential democracy. “As editor of the Republic, he fought the franchise schemes of the Republic's friends till they stood aghast at his indep@wdence. As gen- eral manager of the Pést-Dispatch, he was the friend of, but never syco- phant to organized labor. In politics no friendship of interest could seduce him from support of the right. “The man had a positive splendor of character, nor did he pride himself upon it in the least. Least self-con- scious, he was always for helping the world along. To the young man he Was a mentor grave and kind. Before all men he stood four-square to all the winds that blow. To the false andthe corrupt he was a terror not to be turned aside. This community owes him more than it can ever know. “Tro those of us who loved him, even as we admired him, he sweetens fortifies faith and enlivens hope in the promise that what is good shall not wholly die.’’

So pronounced is the relief and cure following the use of this treatment that it has been publicly recommended by leading druggists and physicians in State and town in the eountry, with the result that last year’s sales were larger than ever.

FRANK R. O’NEIL. Obiit, Jan, 27, 1908. I, When from blanchea lips the shocking truth they learned, A master-soul, men knew, had passed away— Its eye upon the sun of Truth upturned ; ’ A soul so high that with the truth it burried ; ‘A soul so just, so generous, so wise, Men’s failings with unpharasaic eyes It viewed, and o’er their faiilts in pity yearned. A man 80 unobtrusive, yet so bold; So gentle, yet of such surpassing might; A Moses, yet a Paladin of old, When Honor called or Wrong assailed the Right— His equal when shall we again behold, The weak to cheer, the evil to affright ?

Strong men stood by this strong man on his bier— Yea, strong in death, for truth doth never die— And gazed upon his brow serene and high, And hesitated not to shed the tear Of admiration; and there came no fear That future years will not applaud his name And shield the fame of him who sought not fame, Contented with the duties of his sphere, And lesser men, far distant from his grave, mercy, his forgiving mind, And who had felt the hand stretched forth to save, To guide the erring and to lead the blind, A sighful tribute to his manhood gave, For he had learned the art of being kind.

MONTHS OF PATIENT WORK REQUIRED 10 “CUT” THE LARGEST OF ALL DIAMONDS World’s Most ‘Expert Workmen Will Shape ‘King Edward’s Cullinan Under Guard, LONDON, Feb. 1.—Plans are now be- ing completed for the cutting of the im- mense Cullinan diamond, recently pre- sented to King Edward by the Trans- vaal as a birthday gift. It is now kept in‘a large safe at Scotland Yard headquarters, guarded by relays of detectives’. It is the plan to get one magnificent gem of 800 car-

rough larger cutting. In its is 20 times gems by the state, the Cullinan than the Koh-i-noor. The Cullinan diamond at present re- sembles ‘nothing so much as an irregu- lar lump of gum arabic, the size of two fists. It appears to the unskilled eye to be about as valuable as a piece of soda. Only the most skilled craftsmen will be permitted to handle the gem, for a single false touch might cost a fortune. The Koh-i-noor was once cut by an un- practiced hand, and half its weight was lost. All the time the Cullinan diamoned is being cut it will be closely guarded by detectives, and the stone will be weighed at every process. As ‘“‘diamond cut diamond” is the only rule, smaller stones will be affixed to boxwood sticks and rubbed against the gem until a flat surface is. obtained. When this stage is reached, the Cul- linan will ‘be soldered to a metal bar, leaving only- a fragment exposed. It will then be held to a dise revolvihg Olive oil. Each week a tiny fresh facet will be cut and. polished, and each ‘tiny plane of light.is perfect the result will be failure.

TOWN DRY; SALARIES ARE CUT] sx Oklahoma Mayor and Counrteilmen Work Free. . BLACKWELL, Ok., Feb. 1.—Fn its work of retrenchment made necessary by the adoption of prohibition and ‘the closing of the saloons, thereby cutting down the revenue, the City Council is using the pruning knife freely wherever opportunity occurs. The council has adopted an ordinance fixing the salaries of city officers, to take effect April 1, 1908. It provides that the Meyor, Alder- men, Treasurer and City Physician slial! serve without regular salary: City At- torney and Polic® Judge for fees only; Chief of Police, salary cut from $50 to $‘@ No provision was made for the Street Commissioner and that office will perhaps be abolished and the work as- signed to the Chief of Police on fees. The City Clerk will have the water business to look after, which will make his pay in the neighborhood of $40 or $50 a month, and he will earn it!

Recent Court Decisions Against Labor Causes Adminis- tration Worry.

WASHINGTON, Feb. ‘1—Successive Iederal Court decisions within the past month averse to unions have brought the labor question sharply into the na- tional political situation and already the Republicang are making moves calculat- ed to win back the support of the un- ions, , Samuel Gompers, president of the American Federation of Labor, consid- ers the adverse decisions the severest blows his organization and those aliied with it have received in many years. Mr. Bryan, who is now in Washington, has been quick to take advantage of this labor sentiment and the talk of Yemocratic cengressmen indicates that they will make a special appeal to the union: labor. vote -in the natienal election, Secretary of War Taft. in particular, will, it is believed, be injured by the anti-labor decisions, . because his own record in labor cases while he was on the Federal bench has worked against him among union sympatbizers. Democrats Take Advantage. Consequently’ the Democrats are tak- ing pains to crystal‘ize a sentiment that the Republican party as revealed in its judges and.in irs leading presidential candidate ig against union labor. Senator’ Beveridge of Indiana has started the Republican program to con- ciliate labor by introducing a bill to limit the use of the injunction by the courts in labor disputes. His bill pro- vides: that in disputes between em- ployers and employes no injunction or restraining order shall be issued until both sides have been heard, His measures stipulate that such hear- ing shall be held within three days after the injunction is asked unless both sides agree to a conéinuance A messdge from theJ President will follow Senator Beveridge's bill, urging the enactment of a new employers’ lia- bility act avoiding the features which caused the Supreme Court to. declare unconstitutional the act now on the statute books. Erdmann Law in Message. bn this same message it is expected the President will discuss the Supreme Court’s action Monday in declaring the Erdmann law uneonstitutional. The President was strong in his support of the Erdmann bill. when it was before Congress, and afterward, when a suit was brought contesting the provision prohibiting interstate corporations from discriminating against union labor, he instructed the Attorney-General to pre- pare an argument defending this pro- vision’s constitutionality. The Supreme Court held that corpor- ations cannot be -restrained from dis- charging emploves “because they are members of labor unions or from dis- criminating against them for thé same reason. The decision was sweeping and the President, it is said, has as yet been ppc to find a way of setting around [In addition to the Erdmann case, Mr. Gompers, in pointing out the decisions adverse to his cause, has mentioned the decision of the- Supreme Court of } the District of Columbia forbidding the American Federation of Labor to pub- lish the name of the Buck Stove and Range Co. of St. Louis in its unfair list;.a New York decision holding the bankers’ 10-hour law constitutional. and the Federal inwimction issued in West Virginia restraining officers of a\labor unfon from trying to induce the. em- ployes of a coal company from joining the union. MADE TO BREAK PROMISE, YOUTH FORSAKES HOME Charles Brady, East Side High School Junior, Missing Three Months,

Rather than face his comrades of the East St. Louis High School football team after breaking his word, Charles Brady, aged 17, a member of the junior class, left his home, 826 Baugh avenue, three months ago. No tidings have since been received by his sorrowing parents, Mr. and Mrs. Phil Brady. All inquiry concerning him has until now been made quietly by them, their constant hope being that he would return. Now his mother, unable longer to bear her grief, is willing that any means pos- sible to bring back her boy be used. Young Brady had a fondness for ath- letics and was sent by. his schoolto the High School field day contest at Cham- paign last year. He did not-win a prize for jumping, but he made a good record. His father was -opposed to his playing football, but early last season he won his mother’s consent to play in practice games, on condition that he ask her permission for each game. Conflict With Music. rie is pianist of ability and was on the school program last October. One of the members of the regular football team became ill. A game out of town was scheduled, and the members of the team went to Principal Manners and asked that Char!:: be excused from the program, that he might practice for the game. Prof. Manners granted the re- quest, and Charles promised his com- rades he would play. , But his mother, thinking his music deserved more attention than his foot- ball, refused her consent, and he was placec. in the light of breaking his prom- ise. Once MWe.said to her: “You wouldn't think of breaking your word, once you had given it, mamma.” But she did not realize his meaning until he was gone. He drew all his money, $50, from the bank the last day before the three months’ notice rule was‘ placed. in ef- fect. His ticket to the High School lec- ture course, the money for a ticket he had sold and an unsold ticket were found in a packet on the sofa. He did his rnother’s errands before leaving and did not seem in an angry humor. He is large for his age, being six feet tall. His hair is brown and his heavy eyebrows almost. meet above his gray eyes: His hands and feet are large.

EVERY DETAIL PERFECT Track Is Six-Inch Gauge and There Are> T unnel and Grades.

LONDON, Feb. 1.—Spending $50,- 006 on his hobby, Percy H. Leigh of Worsely has one of the unique toys of’the world—a miniature railroad @eemplete even to the signs “Keep ort | The Track.” . The “country” through er the ; wailway runs is a huge, single-storied ‘pullding of one room, 90 feet long and 30 feet wide. It has been added to Mr. Leigh's residence, and was specially constructed sO a8 to give the line sufficient range’ for successful operation, and also to afford protec- tion from damp and bad weather. | The system is known as the “Oak- green & Beechvale Railroad.” The -Toadbed is of pitch pine, mounted on 65 trestles some three feet from the floor, and the track extends to 276 feet of a double line of rails. There are 1200 feet of rails in all, and they were spectfally rolled for Mr. Leigh in Shefield. They are fast- _tened down to 2000 pitch pine sleepers by means of 4000 malleable cast iron chairs—rails are not spiked down in England—held in place with hard- _ Wood wedges and 16,000 screws. All the fishplates, bolts, and nuts used in jo ing the rails together are exact | ure reproductions of those seen the London & Northwestern Rail- r ‘which is the standard system of United Kingdom. Gauge Is Stx Inches. The track is ballasted’ with about half a ton of limestone chips, and the ix: be ‘gauge is six inches. The stations, and eed the whole system, are beauti- : . fully lighted with electric lamps fit- Bi ted with reflectors. t In all there are fifty-eight of these soft, restful lights and a vpecially tall one is established Ms the freight station In order to car- Ty on work. These lamps are sup- plied from storage batteries placed under the track, and their capacity is - + enough to light up the whole room _ without bringing the gas into requis!i- tion. Electric lamps also light the signal cabins and posts along the line. In one signal box are no less than ‘twenty-six levers, from which stretch flexible wires to the signal posts. Of _ these last there are a round dozen, _ three to foyr feet high, quipped ‘3 geowing red, green, and white. Bo- and fully semaphores and lamps Sides these the signal cabins also Work sixteen sets of points by means _ 5@f real connections and levers.

LONDON, Feb. 1—A monument erect- ed to “a brown dog” and “232 other dogs done to death in vivisection,” has divided the city of Battersea into. fac- tions. The Council is struggling with the question whether to remove an in- scription which one faction charges {s “offensive,”’ or vote a fund of $2800 to protect the canine burial ground from Tineensed students. Those supporting the monument in- scription are members of the National Anti-Vivisection Society, while the col- ‘liege students and the British Research Association Insist that the wording casts reflection upon them and “enlighten- ment.” The inscription reads as fol- lows: “In Memory of the Brown Terrier Dog, Done to Death in the Labora- tories of the University College in February, 1908, After Having En- dured Vivisection More Than Two Months, and Having Been Handed Over From One Vivisector to An- other Until Death Came to His Re- lease. “Also in Memory of 232 Dogs Vivi- sected in the Same Place During the year of 1902.”’ Mass meetings are being held by both factions and memorials: by the yards are being sent to the Council.

“CFND DIVORCEES TO THE SQUIRES’ lowa Minister ‘Says He Has Never and Will Not Marry Them.

DES MOINES, Io., Feb. 1.—The un- compromising refusal of all ministers to marry divorced persons was’ advo- cated by Rev. Howland Hanson, pas- tor. of the First Baptist Church, at the meeting of the Ministerial Asso- ciation. While admitting that this of itself would not s:.p the evil, Rev. Han- son believed. that it would do much toward the accomplishment of the de- sired end. ‘They should,” he declared, “be forced to suffer the ignominy of be- ing married by a Justice of the Peace.”’ Rev. Hanson’s statements were a part of the discussion which followed the reading of a paper by Rev. James P. Burling on “The Relation of the Min- ister to the Diverce Question.’ Rev. Hanson was the only took this view of the. situation. others, and even Rev. Burling in his paper, said that ofttimes there ‘were extenuating circumstances which gave a pastor the right to overlook the fact that oné¢ or both of the persons taking the marriage oath has been before the divorce court. “Bach case mt=s—be decided for itself, according to best Christian judgment of the minister,’’ Rev.

NEW YORK, lI"eb. 1.—Employes of the Fifth Avenue Bank were disturbed by a report that a rule had been. put into ef- fect prohibiting them from entering any restaurant in which intoxicants are sold with meals. The younger led to believe that after-theater suppers might be held only in dairy lunchrooms or. similar places. Investigation, how- ever, developed the fact that the only truth in the report is that there is.to be a stringent enforcement of the bank’s rule against the use of intoxicants in public places by its employes, ° According to the bank’s officers, there ig no intention of extending the‘ appl'- ployes frequenting drinking places. gambling houses and other resorts where bad characters congregate, which has been in force for some time. This rule in itself is extraordinarily strin- gent and fs rigidly enforced. “Try Not to Be Foolish.” “We try not to be foolish in the appli- cation of our rules,”’ said B. H. Fahcher, cashier of the Fifth Avenue Bank, ‘‘but there are certain things that. every young man who comes to. work here un- derstands.

Then Sir Arthur’ investigated and found that the reason the key would not turn wWhs that the lock had already been opened before the messenger tried it and that the jewels were gone.

Viears has been dismissed from his post by the King’s command, and Capt. Neville Wilkinson has been appointed in his place. Meantime the authorities say they are without a clew to the robber. or. the possessor of these jewels. This would be a convenient attitude to adopt if the object was to smother a scandal or to avert revelations of orgies conducted in Vicars’ office at night after he had left —orgies the character of which the po- lice have been able to determine by certain articles found concealed in its recesses. : Scandal Starts Investigation. The ringleader in these abominations, a castle official, is said to»have chal- lenged the Government to touch him at peril of involving the names of noted aristocrats, one closely allied to the King himself, being dragged to light. This explains why, when the Irish Gov- ernment began to investigate the rab- bery of the jewels and came upon this underlying scandal, they suddenly left the whole affair drop, and but for Vi- cars’ refusal to quietly accept dismiss- al, nothing more would have been heard of it. The opposition is yearning to use the Government's inaction in the matter for political purposes, but mentary whips got a tip straight from the court that whoever shall be re- sponsible for stirring up the scandal will earn the King’s strong disapprov- al. The probabilities are that these influences will prevail unless some un- foreseen disclosure forces a {ill in- quiry. ; Vicars has issued an appeal to all Irishmen to support his demand for a public inguiry into all of the cireum- stances, SUICIDE WILLS $30,000 TO WOMAN WHO REJECTED HIS OFFERS OF MARRIAGE rennesseean Gives Widow More Than Her Own Mother.

‘‘Feed’’ wires of a new design have been created and put to use by George Miller, a’ coal déaler of Alton. Miller’s love of a late ‘“‘snooze’’ is the parent of this invention. R An alarm clock sets this device about its task of feeding Miller’s 26 horses without disturbing his slumbers. Con- nected with the “‘‘winder’’ of the alarm is a wire running over a pulley and to a trigger which controls traps on thef bottom of the feedbaxes. Cleck Springs Traps.

RIVAL TOWNS WANT RAILROAD COLEMAN, Tex., Feb. 1—The proj- ected railrodd to run from Abilene to Brady by the way of Ballinger or Cole- man is arousing citizens here to a united effort to induce the line to select the Coleman route, the coal mine shipments from here and Waldrip being offered as one inducement. It is expected that a bonus of $50,- 000 will be raised soon to secure the new road, but the Ballinger people are also making a strong fight and a lively tug of war by towns on the opposing routes will take place before one is named. There are good inducements either way and Ballinger says it will give the new road a bonus. The two routes are about the same Jength and are similar in the lay of the land. .

a ‘Julia "Marlowe and the .Varying Appeal of | _ “Gloria”—Three Promising Offerings of Near Future — New York and London Seasons— Merry Opera War. 7. LOVIS playgoers who saw Miss Julia Marlowe ‘in her new “Gloria,” at the Olympic this past week, seem to be divided into two op- ‘ pesing forces as to its merits. Many have told me that they relished the play keenly, ‘light- -hearted and entertaining bit of work, not great, yet worthy. | plain that it dragged, that there was too much talk in the lay! fx of its plot- foundation, and that, but for Miss Marlowe's redeeming grace, they believe .« Gloria” would be a distinct failure. The Olympic was crowded at every per- Tgebmance of the play, but this, of course, was mainly due to the fact that it was a new Marlowe offering. As for myself, I liked “Gloria.” Iconcede that. there “‘tailkiness’’ in its first act, but I contend that this cannot weil ‘the #ase of such a story as the play tells, and against this possible biemish I place the fact that there are many bright lines in the play’s peginning, also an effective eriphasizing of character. Captain Bambazone, Gloria herself, Sir ‘Philip Lilley, the Madonna Cassandra. the mincing poet-Count, truculent old ‘Mareo Ricci, Gloria’s uncle—all these folk were very clearly etched before the first curtain fell. And surely the play went with euisibad action after this opening act. “all in ali, it seems to me that ‘Gloria’ ts quite a creditable ac mca along worthy lines. _ ¥, ECAUSE of these honest‘ differences of opinion : B “Gloria,” I shall watch the futute fortunes of the play with peculiar ' interest. ; It doesn’t surprise me in the least to. hear from ‘Charlies Wyndham has purchased the English rights of the play and that le purposes to give it a Ldndon production early this month. It won't sur- prise me if “Gloria’’ does very well, itdeed, in London. The English have a liking for a touch of poetry and puré diction and something more than a transient timeliness in their plays. They have even proved, indeed, that they are capable of sincerely appreciating the ‘strength and beauty of ‘Mte phen Phillips’ tragedies, and they were quick to feel whatever of poetic charm there is in our own Petcy Mackaye's “Jeanne d@’Arc."’ It may be that ‘London will place its stamp of approval on this British-made play that had its first production in ‘“‘the States.’’ : Anyway, Miss Marlowe is to be senting a new poetic comedy—they’re mighty And, after all; I believe the final St. Loufs verdict was that

Years ago, W hen she played a rustic ingenue role in Augustus Thomas’ ‘In Mizzoura,”’ it seemed to me that she revealed gifts much above the average, and her ‘arrival’ in It is beyend question that she has made good her claim to stardoni—what | now remains to be done for her devolves upon her manager and the playwright chosen to furnish a successor to “The Road to Yesterday’ for. her. playing. - As for John Drew, of course he'll be the same old John Drew ‘and I’m more interested in seeing Miss Billie Burke, the American-English gir! who divided honors with him in New York.

Ew YORK is beginning to say, philosophically, that this ‘has been “a hard- season for bad plays,” and then it names over the failures and ‘ the suecesses, claiming that good plays are as sure as ever of an appre- tiative reception. ~ -“The Ranger,’ “Sapho and Phaon,” “The Christian Pilgrim,’ “The Evan- ‘gelist,”” “The Step-Sister,” “The Girls of Holland’’—these are recalled with the fFeflection that they -did not deserve success, wherefore it is well that they did not achieve it. There is no good reason, says New York, why disaster to these ‘plays should be deplored. _ But the plays that deserved success succeeded+among rn Man,” “The Thief,” “The Witching Hour,’ ‘‘The Merry Widow,’ ‘Miss a ook of Holland,” “The Girl Behind the Counté?,” “Polly of the Circus,” “The THik of New York,’ quite a notable list, indeed. aie , But fT see no mention of “The Jesters,"’ Maude Adams’ new play, as being one Of the. big hits. Some of the critics didn't think much of it. Is the pub- Tig, of the same mind? failing even faster and more nu merously than in New York during the | M early part of this season. . Beerbohm Tree, withdrawing “The Mystery. of Edwin Drood’”’ His Majesty's Theater, offers up loud lamentations, declaring dismally that this is the worst theatrical season in his recollection. Other London’ managers join ‘in the doleftil chorus, and it is said that $250 a night constitutes the average re- _celpts of West End theaters. : Even our own Henry James suffers. He ts’so incensed by London’s disdain or his “Guy Donville’ that he now insists ‘upon Forbes-Robertson giving his new comedy of English life its first produc (iow in Dublin instead of the British 4: metropolis. eae And yet the old saying has it that “God 18 good to the Irish.”’ them being “‘A Grand

She is 70 years old, a refined, kindly, Chris- tian woman, an active member for many years of the Presbyterian Chureh, and of the Womén’s Club. _ A veporter for the Post-Dispatch saw her twice last week in her home and talked with her about the dual life of her husband, William A. Rocke- feller, who married her in Canada in 185 under the name of William Lev- ‘ingston and who kept from her the secret of his identity until a few vears before his death in 1906. bt REFUSE positively to discuss the matter,’ she said. ‘| ‘Will you say that your husband, William Levingston, was not William .

ve 1908; by the Pullizer Publishing Co—The St. Louis Post-Dis- patch. : the body of Dr. William Avery Rockefeller, father of the “oil king,” John D. Rockefeller, lies in an unmarked grave in Oakland Cemetery, Freeport, Ul. He died in that city May 11, 1906, aged 96 5 months and: 28 days. ‘For-fifty years he led a double life. Under the caaeeni name of Dr. William Levingston he farmed and sold medicines of his own de- coction in Illinois and North Dakota. “During those same years he oc- casionally appeared at the homes of his sons and.among his old ac- ‘quaintances in the Fast’as Dr. William A. Rockefeller. The facts have been collected by a Post-Dispatch reporter whose investigation has just been completed. we ‘‘Dr. Levingston entered 160 acres of land in the name of Wil ee liam A. Rockefeller at Park River, N. D., where the deed is on file - ‘in the Registrar's office. He lived on the land parts of 16 summers as ‘Dr. Levingston.’ ’’ 4 He sold paréels of the land to Pierson D.

When a Post-Dispatch reporter showed her the evidence that her husband and William A. Rockefeller had been one man, she Said she must remain “a true woman to the end’’ and ‘“‘let John . Rockefeller tell all if he will.’’ : Frank Rockefeller and Pierson D. Briggs would not deny the evidence when it was presented to them by a Post- Dispatch re ort. : ‘Dr. "Levingston”’ said to his wife in the delirium that ushered ee a to his bed: ‘‘You are not my wife—where is Bliga?’’ (Eliza ‘as ‘the name of William A.

Betenn * , come ee of irkioet couriers thundered through the streets “summoning to the bedside of the wounded yogth all the skilled physicians that could be found in Lisbon. The latest bulletin from the bedside of Prince Manuil states ‘that at present there is little danger of complications from the wounds. : Among the first to be called to the palace was Premier Franco, the dictator of the Kingdom. Franco was protected by a squadron of cavalrymen as he hastened to the palace, and there he conferred with the Queen and high officials on what immediate action peal be. taken. , RESULT OF PREMIER’S POLICY The tragedy was the direct result of King Carlos’ recent po- litical moves, carried out by Senhor Franco, the Premier, who pub- lished a decree dissolving the Cortes and stated that after seven months of strife he had found it impossible to govern with a Par- liament and at the same time carry out his legislative program, which included a policy of social and economic reforms and efficient _ party control of the administratin. In.this he established a ver- * itable dictatorship and since then has governed with an iron hand. . For the last few months it has been evident that trouble was brewing for Portugal and that revolutionists were at work. After numerous minor risings had been. put down, the police, on Jan. 23, uncovered a widespread plot to overthrow the monarchy and pro- . claim Portugal a republic. The plot was organized by a _ small group of advanced Republicans, and the original intention was to assasinate Premier Franeo and depend upon secret Republican an¢ labor organizations, armed with bombs and revolvers, to complete the work of revdlution in the streets. — : POLICE RAIDED PLOTTERS. But the police raided the meeting place of the conspirators -and made a number of arrests, seizing quantities of bombs and oth- er weapons, and since then other raids have been made in Lisbon, with the result that the’ police believed they had the revolutionaries well in hand. Each day, however, brought new evidences of the , ramifications of the plot to remove the heads of the state and ~ establish republicanism in the country, A treaty with England, hoteever not only provides for as- sistance from that country in event of foreign invasion of Por- tugal. but it also was designed to safeguard the Crown against any danger from revolution in the form of an attempt upon the » monarchy itself. Dom Miguel de Braganza, the pretender to the ticcanb; and head of the house of the Jine of Braganza, which formerly reigned over Portngal, is likely to come to the front again because of the death of King Carlos and the Crown Prince. The father of Dom Miguel was the late-King Miguel I, Duke of Bra- 4 ns , Who seized the throne from his niece, Queen Maria _ II, leughter of Emperor Pedro I of Brazil, and was King of Portu- 7 al from 1828 to 1834, at which latter date Quéen Maria was re- * stored to the throne. _ There have been numerous rumors of a. rebellion with the “ob- of placing Dom Miguel on the throne, but recently these were Mot given serious consideration.

He was known as “the jo- of Lisbon and converse — with his subjects. - vial King.” His marriage to the beautiful Amelie of Orieans ‘was tinged with ro- mance unusual for roy eity. The. young Duke of Braganza always said his wife must be a “faity princess,” rich and beautiful and good. It was long before he found any who seemed to meet those difficult requirements, a photograph of Amelie and showed it to the young Portuguese Prince. ' Carlos fell-in love. They were married in May, 1886. The Queen was the daughter of the Comte de, Paris,’ “the first Prince of the blood roval of France,” who. resided aq a country gentleman at Twick- enham. The young woman was edueated im England and was more an KEn- glish girl in her tastes and habits than a Princess of the Bourbon- Orleans family. QUEEN VICTORIA AIDED WOOER. Queen Victoria was a helpful ally for: Carlos in winning “the nial of the Orleanist Princess. Carlos made a trip to England to see for himself the orig- inal of the beautiful photograph. Amelia was. urged by Victoria to accept her royal suitor, The brief courtship was gone through’'with in grand style. All England knew that the King of Portugal had come to woo the fair maid of Twickenham and a hearty English “God bless you” followed the newly married pair to Lisbon. : Later the King and Queen of Portugal paid a visit to their royal bene- factress of England and were honored guests at Windsor Castle. '|Queen, a Famous Swimmer, Won a Medal By Saving Drowning Children The Queen of Portugal is one of the, most gifted women in Europe. She was known in England, before her marriage, as a sportwoman, especially as 1 powerful swimmer. In after years she was awarded a medal for heroism in saving the lives of two children who were drowning in the River Tagus. But intellectuality she always has shown brightest. She studied medi- cine and obtained the degree of. M. D., the only Queen in the world whosever won that distinction. Out of her private purse she maintains a hospital and dispensary in Lisbond and contributes largely to institutions of that nature in various parts of the kingdom. She is deeply interested in nursing as a vocation for women and used her own medical knowledge to advantage in dieting and doctoring her gluttonous husband when fife pleasures of the table began to take such a strong hold on him. It was sitid that he used to steal away to Paris and other places to get a meal to his own liking, as the Queen made him diet rigidly at home. Amelie was one of the first persons of prominence outside the scientific world to take an interest in the X-ray. by the X-ray process of a woman who habitually laced tightly. This photo- graph showed the actual deformity produced by stays drawn too tightly and was used by the Queen in her perpetual campaign against this feminine vanity. d KING WIDELY KNOWN ARTIST. She was deeply interested in her husband’s scientific studies, especially oceanography, in which ne devoted much time. She was an appreciative critic also, of his painting, in which field he occupied a high position among the artists of his country. ; Both Carlos and Amelié were looked upon as among the most brilliant of European sovereigns, and both were absolutely fearless. Less than two mdnths ago Amelie, then in Paris, was to have made a balloon ascension, but Carlos heard of it and wired:: “The Queen of Portugal shall not go up ina balloon.” So that adventure was abandoned. Two sons were born to their Portuguese majesties, the late Crown Prince and Prince Manuel, now 18 vears old and the uccessor to the throne. The latter has figured in the public prints abroad ‘very li(tle and Prince Luiz onl since the internal difficulties have reached a crisis in Portugal.

He is a distant relative of the Hapsburgs and a son of the expatriated Prince Miguel of Portugal. His mother, now a nun, was a princess of Lowenstein’ Wertheim. A nephew of hers was killed in the Philippines in 1899, while fighting in the ranks of the insurgents against American troops. MARRIED AMERICAN ACTRESS. King Isuiz T was the son of Maria II,~Queen of Portugal, after the abdi- eation of Pedro 1V, her father. She married Don Fernando, a cousin of Prince Albert, Victoria's consort. When she died, first her son Pedro V became king and subsequently her other son, Luiz, succeeded Pedro. Don Fernando became a sort of dowager king, having had the title without the authority of a king during his wife's life. After Maria's death, Dom Fernand married an American actress, lise Hensler, of ‘Boston, whose niece, Anna Slade Perkins of Boston. married a plain American a few years ago. remarking, ‘‘He’'s Kmg enough for me.’ lt was because Maria’ succeeded Petro Iv. instead of Pedro's brother.

The populace of Portugal has been bitter toward Premier Franco, who has been the King’s great financial prop. Business has been poor and taxes are all out of proportion to the ability of the people to pay, according to the popu- lar complaint. The institution of roy- alty and the administration of Premier Franco have peen blamed for this state of affairs. Franco, who is an able financier, has had to steer through a narrow channel.

in 1904. The original ,issue was. the question of the tobacco monopoly, a minor matter, but it caused the downfall of one ministry. Several ministries fol- lowed one another in quick succession. The tobacco monopoly question finally was disposed of, but the Cortes, the na- tional legislative body, was in a sfate of hopeless confusion. Parliamentary government seemed a practical impossi- bility. The various premiers importuned King Carlos to dissolve the Cortes and place them in contro] of the State.

He was a bright, precocious youngster of not quite 2, and praise and flattery had tended to spoil him before the African-trip. On his return he quarreled with his father. He told the King that the monarchy was tottering and intimated his persona! belief that only an abdication in his favor would prevent the impending erash. The too outspoken Prince was hustled off to an out-of-the-way chateau and kept’ there, a virtual prisoner, while Franco continued to wrestle with ques- tions of finance and taxation, and while : Franco's Reign Resented. The Cortez was adjourned sine die and Franco was in control. “A coup d’etat’’ the move was termed, and so it was in a sense, but the situation was critical and strong measures had to be applied. Republican ideas had grown up among the people. The Portuguese read Victor Hugo. They resented the idea of a ‘“‘dictator,” as Franco was calied. They’ had no patience with such radical measures on the part of the throne, though the avowed purpose was to restore orper and prosperity to Por- tual. Mutterings of discontent, outiurete of popular rage became frequent. There were repubilcan uprisings and bar- ricades were thrown up in the streets of Lisbon. The army stood with the King. and these fitful bursts of popular pas- sion were smothered ag they manifested themselves. 4 But they grew more frequent. It be- came &@ common saying that the mon- archy was tottering. At this functure ‘he Crown Prince took a had in the ‘are of polit-ce.

ww Communication From Architect to ee : bit Given Out After Slayer Is Acquit- ed on Insanity Plea. ) SS

CQNTINUED FROM. PAGE ONE,

Justice Dowling’s commitment was wn- constitutional. If this move is unsuc- cessful, they will apply for a writ of habeas corpus and canse the appoint- ment of a commission to examine Thaw and report upon His mental condition, Thaw protested violently against going to Matteawan. He declared with all the force of his violent nature that his law- vers ought to obtain his release ai once. In Commanding Attitude. A long conference was held by the lawyers. They had all their papers ready to obtain a writ, but Littleton argued that “We had better let sleeping dogs sleep’ for a time. Plainly, he thought it better to go slow with public opinion. Stancing in the middle of the floor fwith exultation shining from every one of his features, Thaw, in the tone of a victorious general addressing a_ well meaning, but tardy, Neutenant, ordered Littleton to use all diligence in getting before Justice Newburger. Littleton promised him that he would go at once to the Supreme Court, but at the door he stopped for a word with a friend. Thaw watched him impatient- jy for a moment and then called out sharply: “Mr. Littleton, aren’t you going to the Supreme Court to get that writ?’ “Yes, in a moment,” said Littleton, soothingly. “But you do not seem to be going, perceptibly,” said Thaw, chewing on his cigar stump. | Finally lawyer Peabody convinced Thaw he had better go to the asylum until Monday. Friend Leads Applause. When the time came to start, Thaw, accompanied by his wife, Dan O'Reilly, his attorney, and a deputy sheriff, walk- ed over the Bridge of Sighs to the Tombs. He bade good-by to all the prison officials and climbed into his own automobile, which had béen run into the jail yard. His wife, O'Reilly, .Lawyer Peabody and Deputy Sheriff Bell got into the car with him. Deputy Sheriff Bell and Detective Moore of Peabody’s — got on the seat with the chauf- eur ' The big gates leading to Lafayette street were opened and the automobile shot out into the immense crowd. Led by Rafael Gascone, the Italian whom Thaw assisted with money and advice to get out of Sing Sing death house and finally get an acquittal on a murder charge, the crowd cheered until the buildings about rang with the echoes. Police Guard at Station. Up Lafayette street to Canal street fhe crowd ran after the automobile. When the car was lost to the crowd many of the pursuers ran for the near- set subway station to the Grand Central Depot. 3 Another crowd was encountered at the Grand Central, where a pdlice guard was necessary to get Thaw to the gate leading to the train:: He was cheered there and appeared to enjoy the manli- festations of good will that greeted him on every hand. | Wife Weeps at Parting. En route | to the Grand Central Sta- tion, Thaw said he was very anxious to see the ruins of the big Parker build- ing, so the motor car turned into Fourth avenue. Continuing north on’ Fourth avenue, the automobile passed in the very shadow of that tower on which is perched “‘Chaste Diana,’’ who: looked down on the tragedy of the roof a year ago last July. Neither the man just de- clared insane nor the wife glanced at the garden, but seemingly were matles away in thought. The car went to the Lexington avenue entrance of the station and there-Mrs. Thaw bade her husband good- os She was pale, weeping. It was p at genuine sorrow possessed her. ” Phaw threw his arms around her, embraced her closely and -now whispered’ to her, now kissed her. As she was whisked away he said sadly: “That poor little girl is alone now. I’m more worried about her than any- thing else.”’ On the brief journey to the asylum, IThaw showed no anxiety as. to what awaited him in the prison for the in- sane. He spoke of his wife and again regretted that she was left ‘‘alone.’ When the verdict had been spoken by the foreman, Dan Moore, a clerk for Mr. Peabody, went to the nearest telephone and called up the apartments of the Thaw family at the Hotel Lor- rdine. Mrs. George Lauder Carnegie, Harry Thaw’s sister, answered the tele- phone, and to her Moore told the news. Mrs. William Thaw took the tranemitter yrom her daughter's hand and talked over the wire with Moore. To the clerk the prisoner's mother said: “T am very glad that Harry has been acquitted, but I hope, with all my heart, that he will not have to go to Mattea- wan, because I do not want such a stig- ma to be laid on any member of the Thaw family.” Ap Unwilling Traveler, It was a quick transition from the dingy little cell in the Tombs, which had been Thaw's home for more than eighteen months, to the white-bedded wards of the large asylum tucked away on the snow-covered § sloping banks of the Hudson River, # miles above the city. The verdict came aft er 2 hours of waiting, and when ev- eryone connected with the case had abandoned all hope of an agreement in this or any other trial. Four hours after Foreman Gremmels’ lips bad. framed the words that the jury had found Thaw “not guilty," Thaw, pro testing he was sane, was on bis way to Matteawan. A few minutes after night- full he had been received in the insfitu- tion under commitment papers, which directed his detention “until discharged by due course of law.” No more unwilling patient ever made a journey to a State institution. Thaw's train on ite way to Fiehkil: Landing. where a carriage was taken to Mattea wan, passed beneath the very walls of grim Sing Sing. but at vo time since his arrest on tife night of June %, 1906, had the young Pittsburg milionaite

the Inside of that tampa he heedea i not. * Z, Mr, Littleton, whose éonduct of case ag chief counsel for Thaw ba elicited favorable domment convinced Mrs. William Thaw would be. better t of the Caurt. Advises Againat Justice Dowling, it was consulted in the matter he newts signed his order of commitment and in- formally had advised Thaw’s counsel — against making an immediate contest. — until after a lively scene with his coun- sel and his wife, the latter pleading with him for more than ,eh hour to be content for a time at least with what fate had given him. Unper the promise that some action speedily will be taken looking to the — appointment of a commission to inquire — fer to’a private institution, where ‘wife and other members of his might reside with him. Thaw consent- ed to go without further protest. On his way to Matteawan, Thaw dic-— tated the following ‘statement: “IT am perfectly sane now, but I am going to Matteawan on the advice of my counsel, who thought it a little un- wise to sue for a writ of habeas corpus at this time. Counsel wil proceed in the matter of my release just as _800n as they can get together the proof they will present. that I am at present sane, I am confident that my stay at Mattea- wan will be for a short period of time only.’’ Attorneys Peabody-and O'Reilly whee w-th Thaw to Matteawan. Mr. Littleton is understood to have talked very plain- ly to Thaw while the subject of suing out a writ of habeas corpus was under discussion. ‘On an exception filed by Mr. Littleton, Justice Dowling had a delay until 3 o'clock In the execution of the commitment papers, so that coun- sel might consult with the defendant. Mr. Littleton informed Thaw, it was stated, that “there is such a thing as public sentiment ir New York City.” . Littleton Worn Out. Mr. Littleton went neither to the sta- tion nor to the asylum with his clitent. He waa said to be well nigh worn out from his work during the trial. Thaw had no opportunity to bid his mother farewell. The Gourt order Bell was anxious to take the first train leading up the Hudson. Both the moth- - er and Evelyn Thaw will visit Mattea- — wan Monday, all visitors being barred from the institution on Sunday. J Daniel O’Reilly announced at Fishkill Landing tonight that when a writ” of habeas corpus is sued out in Thaw’'s be half—if such action shall be decided®on in the near future—the application pro ably will be made at Poughkeepsie, Y., the county seat of Dutchess County, in which Matteawan is situated. £ ‘The verdict of insanity returned by ter written some years ago by Stanford Evelyn Nesbit Thaw, and given out at the Criminal Courts Bullding today. In Nesbit. the. mother of the girl in the case, should not worry over atonee: Thaw had told. “He still continues to circulate the most terrible ones about me, but where there is no foundation for them, sileice is.the best answer to such a crazy per- son, for he surely must be that.”

MATTEAWAN, N. Y., Feb. 1.—Hafry K. Thaw arrived here tonight and Was immediately assigned to the observa- tion ward of the State Hospital for the criminal insane, where he will remain for a week or two until the authorities can note his mental condition and definite arrangements for his future stay In the Institution. The new patient sleeps tonight In a small iron bed if @ dormitory, where about 8 other are quartered. An attendant is on guerd constantly to prevent any of the men from arising. + The arrival at Fishkill Landing of the train bearing the Thaw party caused a commotion In the littl town. Photogra- 'phers from New York had come on an earlier train and a dozen flashlight charges were exploded as Thaw, accom- panied by Deputy Sheriff Bell and At- torneys Peabody and O'Reilly, stepped from the private car. in which the jotr- ney fro mthe elity had. been made. | When Dr. Robert B. ese medical superintendent of the hos ta nt afternoon that Harry Thaw bad been committed to the institution ‘he said the prisoner would be given no special privileges while here. 4 May Have Dainties. e “The first thing we will do with him, said Dr. Lamb, “as with all patiests, is to place him in the observation there to remain for a week or two, oF possibly longer, until we note tal condition, Then we can, after ing bis mental derangement, assign with some judgment to some | ward in the hospital.

"The second wife, Mrs. Levingston, he married in Ontario in 1853, while his first wife was living with her five children in Cleveland, O. This second wife is now living in Freeport, Ill., a charming, white- _~ haired, Christian woman of 70 years. Dr. Rockefeller was 45 years old when he deserted his wife and family in Clevcland and went to Canada and, under the assumed name of William Levingston, married Miss Margaret L. Allen, a pretty girl of 20. For 50 vears she lived with him as his wife, never knowing until just before he died that her husband was a bigamist. Until a : few vears before his death she did not know that he was William A. Rockefeller, or that he had been indicted in New York State. Even now she will not say that he was William A. Rockefeller. “We-lived .happily together for 50 years and I shall be a true woman to the end,” she says. 7 ONLY FOUR KNEW HIS SECRET During the last 25 years of his life Dr. Rockefeller’s where- abouts and the existence of the other wife were known to his sons, John D., William and Frank Rockefeller, and to his son-in-law, Pierson D. Briggs of Cleveland. But no one else in all the world knew of it. The first Mrs. Rockefeller lived 34 years after he deserted her, and died without knowing that her husband had taken a girl of 20 in her stead. And all the members of the Rockefeller family, ex- cept these four men, knew nothing of it. They did not know ‘where the old man lived. The three sons kept him well supplied ‘with money, but they guarded well the secret of his life and whereabouts. | | | He was first hidden on a farm in Macon County, IIl., about half way between Decatur and Clinton. As the country settled up around him he moved to Freeport, Ill., and in 1881 he moved again to the extreme frontier in North, Dakota, on a farm 30 miles from 8 railroad. On this farm he spent each summer for 15 years, known . to his neighbors as Dr. William Levingston. Part of the time he x owned the farm, in his own name of William A. Rockefeller, but that secret was buried in the records of the County Registrar of Deeds, 18 miles away, and his neighbors never knew of it. | For two years the newspapers an@ magazines of this country have searched for the father of John D. Rockefeller. Ida M. Tar- bell began the hunt, andthe results of her quest were publishd in McClure’s Magazine in July, 1905. She traced the old man to _ Cleveland, to which city he moved with his family in 1855. She lost Kim there. | In her article in the magazine she spoke of John D. Rockefeller : as ‘‘the most tragic figure in the publie eye,’’ ‘‘the most important than in the world,’’ and ‘‘the most successful man in the world,’ because he had got most of what men most want—money ; and she gave as her reason for trying to find John D. Rockefeller’s father: ‘‘Now a man who possesses the influence that Rockefeller does eannot be allowed to live in the dark» The publie not only has the ‘right, to know, it is the duty of the public to know who he is, whence he came and his origin.’’ | EVEN HIS RELATIVES IN THE DARK - Since the appearance of Miss Tarbell’s article in 1905 thousands ‘of dollars have been spent im the search, but not even a trace of > him could be found, Some members of the Rockefeller family were as eager as the public. to solve the mystery of the old man’s | disappearance. One of them furnished Miss Tarbell a photograph of the elder Rockefeller, whith was published with her story in Me- Clure’s magazine, but the four men who knew the secret kept it so will get their first knowledge of the revelation from. this article. ' . William A. Rockefeller’s bigamous marriage has been the skeleton in the family of the ‘‘Oil King.’’ Because of the existence of this second wife the secret of his whereabouts has been guarded he only four persons who knew it. They have been importurled iy Other members of the family, socially prominent in*New York. meveland and Chicago, to tell, but they would not say a word. One since his disappearance the old man visited his son, Frank “Rockefeller, .on his ranch in Belvidere, Kan., and spent two weeks Twice he has visited his son, D.

Old “Hi’’ Odell, 8 years old, is yet living in Oswego, N. Y. He seid re- cently to @ reporter for.the Post-Dic- patch: “I went to work for Bill Rockefeller when he lived in Moravia. I was rail- roading some then, but Bill he says to me, ‘Hi,’ he says, ‘I want you to live up to our house and keep an eye on them boys. Their mother ain’t strong enough to manage 'em, and they need some managing. Do just what you think is right for ’em.’ ” Miss Tarbell’s Description. In her description of the father of John D. Rockefeller Miss Tarbell said: “It is with William.A. Rockefeller. father of John, that we have to do here. There is enough which is au- thentic to be gleaned about him to form 2 picture of a striking character. He was a tall and- powerful man; with keen, straightforward eyes, a man in whom strength, and fearlessness, and joy in life, unfettered by education or love of decency, ran riot.’ He owned a costly rifle and was famous as a shot. He was a daredevil with horses. He had all the vices save one—he never drank. He was a fa- mous trickster, too; thus, when he first reached Richford he is said to have called himself a peddler—a deaf and dumb peddler, and for some time he actually succeeded in making his acquaintances write out their remarks to him on a slate. Why he wished to deceive them no one knows. Perhaps sheer mischief, perhaps a desire to hear things which would hardly be talked before a stranger with go00d ears. His Mysterious Trips. “It was not long after he came to Richford that he began to So off on long trips—peddling trips some said. Later he became known as a quack doctor, and his absences were sup- posed to be spent in selling a med- icine he concocted himself. Irregular and wild as his life undoubtedly was, his strength and skill and daring, his frankness, his careful dress, for he paid great attention to hig clothes, as well as the mystery surrounding the occupation which, kept him looking so prosperous, made him a fevyorite with the young and reckless, and, un- happily, with women. ~ “In the Ohio communities where he lived the legends of ‘Old Billi,’ as he is popularly spoken of today, are ident- ical with those in New York. They P all remember him as a man who came home but rarely, who was supposed tv sel] some kind of medicine—a ‘cancer doctor’ is the opinion of one, » ‘quack doctor’ of another. In Ohio, as in New

York, he always created a profound impression on his visits home, by his clothes, his good horse, and his crack shooting. “He was a rippin’ good one,” an old associate in Parma declares. }!°'v he would shoot-bang-e-tee-bang—you'd ‘a’ thought there was a whole army around. " These same habits were with old man Rockefeller to the end .i his days. He never gave up his ‘‘quack doctoring,”’ his roving, his fine horses, his shooting or his love of the fields. Upon his trips away from home Wil- liam Ai Rockefeller went under an as- sumed name, Whether this was because of the indictment against him in Cayuga County, N. Y., or to cover up his rela- tions with women, is not known; but it is known that upon one of his “med- ical’ trips into Ontario, Canada, in the 50's, he appeared at Burford and Nor. wich under the name of “Dr. William Levingston.” This has been learned by a reporter for the Post-Dispatch. This, and the other trips of the elder Rockefeller into Canada were referred to in an interview given out in 190, soon after the publication of the Tarbell story. The interview was given by the manager of John D. Rockefeller’s es- tate in Pocantico, and was understood to be authorized by John w». himself. In the course of the interview the man- ager was asked: , “Are you acquainted with Mr. Rocke- feller’s father?’ An Authorized Statement. “Indeed I am,’’ he answered. “He was here about a@ year ago. A recent maga- zine story refers to him as a.man who associated with horse thieves up at Mo- rayla, and who used to absent himself from home for long periods and return with plenty of money. I know that he used to £0 away, and I know why. He had a farm which would never yield any profit, so he went over to Canada, bought up a lot of fine timber, walnut and ash, sent it to the mills and sold it at a handsome pront. sie repeated this’ often until finally he devoted al! of his time to the lumber business an:! made a small fortune. The old man is vow living quietly on a ranch in the northwest. | HIS MARRIEDLIFE A LONG MASQUERADE On one of these trips “Dr. William Levingston” met Miss Margaret L.

' Sister Tclis of Marriage. Mrs. Loessing of Norwich, Ont., a sis- ter of Misa Allen, tells this story of the marriage of “Dr. Levingston:’’ “He married my sister after two or three years’ acquaintance and after their matriage he visited her here about: once a year for a number of years. He was everybody. He was a famous marksman and loved to hunt. He was fond of a good story. mF “From here they nioved to Phfladel- phia and ther lived ona farm in Iii- hols. Afterward he sold h’s farm and lived a retired life ‘in Freeport, I1.’’ Bought Farm in Illinois. Dr. Levingston and his young wife first appeared in the West in 183/. The registry of decds of Macon County, IIL, show that April 18, 1867, William = A, Barnes and wife sold to Mrs. Margaret L. Allen Levingston for $2400 a. farm of 160 acres five miles east of Maroa,in that county. Dr. and Mrs. Levingston moved on the farm and lived there three years. | The records show that Oct. 2%, 186% William Levingston and his wife, Mar- garet L. Allen Levingston, old the farm to S. M. Currier for $6900, a profit of $4590 in two years. Mr. Currier paid $1900. in cash and gavé a mortgage for $5000 at 10 per cent’ interest. The Levingstons ere well remembered by the older residents of Maroa and Deeatur, among them Dr. W. A. Barnes of Decatur. They all deseribe him as a jolly, good-natured man, who spent most of his time hunting. “He didn’t do nothing but hunt, and when he got out in the fields with them guns of hisn you’ée a .thought a whole battery was agoing off,” one of his old neighbors said. They all describe him as exactly the kind of a jolly, roving, shooting man told of by Ida Tarbell, and when the picture of William A. Rockefeller ap- peared in McClure’s magazine al! of the old folks around Maroa recognized it as the perfect likeness of Dr. Leving- ston. After the Levingstons sold the farm to Currier they boarded with him for a year and then moved to Princeton, Ill., and lived two years, and then they moved to Freeport, Iil., and Mrs. Lev- ingstbn bought a small brick cottage there across the street from her brother. S. V. Allen, a photographer. That was in 1872, and she has lived tnere ever since, making ocgasional summer trips to her former home in Norwich, Canada. Would Disappear for Months. In Freeport Dr. Levingston was the same roving, mysterious person he had been in New York end in Ohio. He was.seldom at home. He would be gone for months and come back w'th a great roll of money which he would display. He would go to smail towns and put up at a hotel for a week or so, getting out hand bills advertising himself as ‘“The Celebrated, Dr. Levingston.” He ad- vertised to cure anything, but made a specialty of cancer and kidney troubles. Among ‘those: who knew Dr. Levingston well in Freeport was G. F. Swartz, a druggist. He has yet in an Old book, yellow with age, the prescription he used to fill for Dr. Levingston. It is as follows: “DR. LEVINGSTON'S DIURETIC MIXTURE.” Acetate potash Balsam copebia Oil cubebs Sweet spirits nitre .- Fl. ex. Buchu TORE I Dose, “T used to put that up in wou %. Swartz. “I used to sell him vast quan- tities of pills and patent medicines, too. He would teke them with him on his trips. That descr ption of old Rocke- feller by Ida Tarbell fitted Dr. Leving- ston to a T.

He was « great hunter, too. He always carried his guns with him. He had half a dozen, I guess, and when he was at home here he Was out hunting most of ars time.”” Mr. "Bidwell, president of & bank in Freeport, told @ Post-Dispatch report- er a story illustrating Dr. Leving- ston’s love of hunting and his methods ofscuring ailments. “Tl knew him well. He used to keep an account In my bank, and I used to go hunting with him. He was the best shot I ever saw, and he had a fine co}- lection of guTrs. “Once I was administrator of an es- tate and in closing it up I had a $400 gun to sell. No one else around here wished to buy it. but Dr. Levingston paid me $125 for it.’ Qnee he came to my house’ to show me a dog he hwa just bought.

Was a cancer and that I would cure it. for $50. The fellow said he never had that Much money together in all his life, but he had this fine hunt- ing dog, so I took that in exchange for a box of salve.” Dr. Levingston thought that was a great. joke, “Miss Tarbell deseribed him exactiy in her article, and the picture she print- ed of William A. Rockefeller was a perfect likeness of Dr. Levingston. He never wore a neektie and a big da- mond always blazed in thé bosom of his white anime! © tt ee | His Trips Northward. From Freeport. Dr. Levingston went upon trips into the frentie® country as far north as the Canadian border line in *the Red River Valley and in tie country. around Devil's Lake, North Dakota. This was a country suited co his nature-loving chafacter. Game was plentiful... o4 "Seer Dr.C Levingston took his battery of shotguns with him on these trips and spent as much time shooting as he did selling medicine. Documents The deeds on record in Grafton. coun- ty seat of Walsh County, N. D., furnish the positive documentary proof that Dr. William Leyingston and Dr. Wil- Ham A. Rockefeller ‘were one and the same person... .. aly. ee Among those records is the deed from the United Statea Government to Dr. William Levingston to the northwest quarter of section 27, township 157, the claim he homesteaded. He*must havé told hig relatives in Cleveland about. the ddeal spot which he had discovered on the Western frontier, for in 1883 he bought anotarr quarter section adjoining his. This was the southeast quarter of section 28, which had been homesteaded by Donald Ross. Dr.. Levingston bought it from him for $1800, as the deed shows. ~ .-Mr. Ross says the money was paid hiin by Dr. Levingston, but the land wes not deeded to him but to his son-in- law, Pierson W. Briggs of Cleveland, O. Briggs was at that time purchasing agent of the Standard Oi) Co. in Clevé- land. Years before he had married Lucy Rockefeller, sister of John D. Rockefeller, and eldest daughter of Dr. William A. Rockefeller, alias Dr. William Levingston. She died in 1876 and Mr. Briggs had married again. Deed Still on Record. | & The deed conveying the quarte? sec- tion from Donald Ross to Mr. Briggs and his wife, Laura E. Briggs, was filed for record Nov. 21, 1883, and is yet on record. A strip of this land was deeded a@ year later by Briggs to the railway company for a right of way. There are men in North Dakota who declare that it was. really John D. Rockefeller who owned this land and that it was put into the name of his brother-in-law, Briggs, as a blind, and that John D. knew when he bought it that the railroad was to be extended and that his influence obtained the loca- tien of the Park River townsite on it of it. At any rate, the money for it went to Briggs in Cleveland. What the Deeds Show. Another deed, recorded Nov. 15, 1884, shows that John Ross conveyed to Pier- son D. Briggs and wife a third quarter eof the section, the price being $2900. Thus, in 18%, Mr. Briggs owned three adjoining quarter sections, the one he had bought from his father-in-law, Dr. Willlam A. Rockefeller, alias Dr. Wil- liam Levingston, for $2000; the one from Donald Ross for $1900, and the one from John» Ross for $2000, a total purchase price of $670. July 26, 1886, these three quarter sections, of 480 acres, were conveyed by Pierson D. Briggs and wife to Wii- liam A. Reckefeller, bis father-in-law. The three deeds were fled for record the annie day, July 26, 18986, and the price named ia the deeds was $10,090 for the three tracts.

Smith for $703, leaving him the ownér of 466 acres in his own name, This deed, filed for. record that day, was a “warranty deéd without ‘dower” and its opening clause is: =“ '" “Know all men ty these presents that I, William A, Rockefeller, ' widower, now of Cleveland, ©., the graritor, In ahd for the consideration of $703 re- }ééived to my full satisfaction, do give, grant, bargain, sell and convey, ete.” . ‘Oct. 10, 1889, William A.

, ow DETECTIVE GOES TO BRING - NAUGHTON FROM SOUTH s.

Assistant House Clerk, Indicted As Accessory to Bribery, Tells New Orleans Police He {s Not Guilty.

Application for a requisition for Dan- iel E. Naughton, Assistant Clerk of the House of Delegates, now under arrest in New Orleans, following his indict- ment as an accessory after the fact of bribery, was maliled yesterday to Gov. Folk for his signature. As s00n as signed by Gov. Folk, the _ requisition will be forwarded by mail to Gov. New- ton Blanchard ef Louisiana, with the request that Naughton be delivered into the custody of Detective Patrick Cahill. Detective Cahill, who has been detailed to return Naughton to 8t. Louis, de- parted for New Orleans at '&:10 o'clock last evening, on an UHlinole Central train. He is due to arrive in New Or- leans at 2 p. m. today. oe Special dispatches received by the Post-Dispatch from New Orleans state that seven summonses for Naughton’s appearance before the gran’ jury were found in his pocket when he was searched at a pwlice station. Seems to Be Worried. Naughton declared that there was nothing to the charge on which he was indicted, but seemed to be worried. He ‘told the New Orleans police that he had) intended to start for St. Louis last night. He was willing to return, he said, but at the same time inquired concerning the methods of obtaining a writ of habeas corpus in the courts of Louisiana. Naughton explained that when be left . St. Louls he had a leave of absence good until last Sunday, and that before its expiration he obtained an extension for 14 days. This was the renewal of Naughton’s leave granted by Speaker Conran and made the subject of a pro- test by Delegate Dwight Davis at last Tuesday's meeting of the House of Del. egates. i Since his disappearance front St. Louis Naughton has been making a book at the racetrack in New Orleans. One of his friends has said that Naughton bas received $10 a day for his services at the racetrack. City Pays His Salary. He also will get: his salary—$is0—as ossistant clerk of the House of Dete- Saces for the month of January. The indietment of Naughton was th ‘ast act of the December grrod jury. Naughton is charged with being an ar- cessory after the fact of bribery on the part of Delegates Fred W. Priesmeyer

and Ferd Warner. The indictmerit was not made public, but la caplas was is- sued for Naughton. It is probable that the indictment will accuse Naughton of having received from a person or persons unknown to the grand jury the five $100 bills alleged to have been paid to Delegate Pries- meyer by Henry Ascher at the direction of Delegate Warner, and that he in turn gave them to Sam Weisman. a tailor, of 1314 Olive street. Naughton steadfastly refused to tell either the October or December grand jury where he got this money. His ex- cuse has been that hig testimony on that point might incriminate him. His Word Is Taken. Taking his word that his connection with the money was criminal, the grand jury, it is said, resolved to indict Naugh- ton. Naughton’s absence from 8t. Louis. while he was in request as a witness both before the grand jury and at the trial of Priesmeyer and Warner, ts said to have angered the grand jurors, who were satisfied that Naughton’s knowl- edge of various transactions in the House of Delegates could have beeh made the basis of additional indictments if he could have been compelled to tes- tify. Circuit Attorney Sager has all along been eager to have Naughton indicted, but in his arguments to induce the Court: to force-the witness to answer questions he took the position that Naughton, in transferring the $100 bills to Sam Weisman, had not committed any offense. After reviewing the whole situation carefully, the Circuit Attorney is said to have found a peg on which to hang ‘an indictment: Salary In Stowed Away. Safely stowed away in the vault in the City Tre@surer’s office is a check for $150, representing the salary which Naughton, as assistant clerk of the Honse of Delegates, is entitled to for Janary. 7 : Treasurer Fanciscus wil] deliver this eheck only to Naughton in person or to ‘orre person having Naughton''s power Of attorney to collect it. Tre other ‘lerks and emploves of the House of Delegates--Clerk Leonard, Daniel (cr- bett, Sergeant-at-Arms Brady and

Janitor McAuliffe—have received their ‘Baldries for January. Be bors.

$51 500 DEFICIT rr

His Activity for Taft Causes Opposition to Reim-: bursement.

By a Staff Correspondent of the Post- Dispatch. WASHINGTON, Feb. 1.—The activity of Thomas J. Akins, Subtreasurer at St. Louis, behalf of Secretary Taft's presidential candidacy, is likely to cost him $61,500. This is the amount of the shortage in his office, which caused the trial and acquittal of D. P: Dyer Jr., a Subtreasury teller. Senator Warner, who introduced a bill at the beginning of the present session to reimburse Mr. Akins for the shortage, was informed by members of the Senate Committee on Claims, to which the pill was referred, that it probably would die in the committee. in No Demand, They Say. The Senator asked when the bill would be reported. -He was told that there seemed to be no demand for a report, and members of the committee did no see why one should be made, either favorable or adverse to the measure. News has reached Washington of Mr. Akins’ speech at Lancaster, Mo., which was followed by the election of two Taft men as delegates to the National Convention from the. First Missouri Congressional District. Coupled with it was the story that other Federal ap- pointees in St. Louis, with the excep- tion of Postmaster Wyman, working for Mr. Taft. Opportunity to Inquire. The anti-Taft senators want to know why this is allowed, in view of Presi. dent Roosevelt's order forbidding his appointees to take a hand in politics. They look upon the Akins relief bill as affording a good opportunity for an jn- quiry and for that reason are holding the bill in committee. If there is any demand for its passage they will make a counter demand for an explanation of Mr. Akins’ Taft activity.

Nearly everybody knows that char- coal is the safest 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 car- ries them out of the system. Charcoal sweetens the breath after smoking; drinking or after eating on- ions and other odorous vegetables. Charcoal 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 tatarrh. All druggists sell charcoal in one form or another, but probably the best charcoal and the most for the money ‘is in Stuart’s Charcoa] 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 noney. The daily use of these lozenges will soon tell in a much improved condi- tion of the general health, better com- plexion, sweeter breath and purer blood, and the beauty of it is that no possi- able harm can result from their con- tinued use, but, on the contrary, great benefit. : A Buffalo physician, in speaking of the benefits of charcoal, says: “T ad- vise Stuart's Charcoal Lozenges to all patients suffering from gas in stomach and bowels, and to*clear the complexion and purify the breath, mouth and throat; I also believe the liver is great. ly benefited by the daily use of ™m; they cost but twenty-five cents a box at drug stores, and although in some sense a patent preparation, vet 1] he. ‘jieve IT get wore and better «harena! n Stuart’s Charcoal Lozenges :han i> ny of the ordinary charcoal tablets.” Send your name and addresa today for a free triml package and see for

BILLIARD TRUST MAY CRIPPLE WILLIE. HOPP ai Schaefer and Sutton Can Compel Him to Play Both in One Night. —'

s ‘pecial to the Post-Dispatch. CHICAGO, Ill, Feb. L—If George Sut- ton so wills it, Hoppe will have to play for the title of 18.2 biliiard champion the night after he finishes his 18.1 match with Jake Schaefer, which wonld great- ly handicap Hoppe, who would have no opportunity for practice for the 18.2 geme. This important point was brought to the attenuon of the loca] critics today after a careful reading of the rules, which show that, according to their in- terpretation, the regulations provide that the games be piayed within sixty days after the acceptance of the chal- lenge. ‘Hoppe plays Schaefer first, and, as he also took on Sutton at about the same time he did Schaefer, this makes it possible for Sutton to set the date in close proximity to the Schaefer match —the next day if he so-wishes. Wheth- er or not he will taxe this advantage is not known, but the local critics bring it out ‘as a good point worthy of discus- sion. The next championsni games—that between Schaefer and oppe at 18.1, and the match of the 18.2 championship between Sutton and Hoppe—undoubted- lv will be played at Orchestra Hal] in ‘hicago. Hoppe challenged for both tit- les before the eastern games were play- ed and both Sutton and Schaefer have covered his forfeits. As Schaefer was the first to accept, he, according to the rules, will have to play first.

Although both “Heine’’ Schlenk and Julies Schmitt, the leaders in the indi- ment, went down to defeat in matches on the Palace al'eys yesterday after- noon, no high scores were recorded. The reason of the reversal in form shown by some of the bowlers and the low scores was that brand-new pins were used, replacing those the men have been shooting : sainst since the tourna- ment opened. George ‘Rudolph of the Palace team did the unexpected when he registered the high avgrage of the afternoon, 19093-7, and won four out of seven games from Jules Schmitt, captain of the Pa}]- ace five. Schmitt was not bowling in form and made a number of errors on single pins. Rudolph won the first, third, fourth and sixth games, but lost the fifth on the foll-off, after tieing at 17s. Schmitt won the final game by four pins, 208 to 206. Sanders Also a Victor. While Schmitt was losing on No. 5 and 6 alléys, Homer Sanders of thé De Soto Stars was trimming ‘‘Heine’’ Schlenk on No. 1 and 2 alleys. Sanders aver- aged but 161 3-7 to Schlenk’s 169 4-7, but won faur out of seven games, taking the third, fourth, fifth and sixth games. Schlenk, after starting off with a 201 game, dropped to 134 in his second. Emil Masson shot against Gus Schmitt on No. 1 and 2 alleys and won five out fo seven games. Gus _ started off like a sure winner, getting 193 pins in the opening game, only to fall down to 139 in the second. Masson won the second, third, fourth, fifth and sixth games. . Martin Kern gave Billy Barron a harder match than was expected, Rar- ron winning four games. Barron start- ed out well, taking the first three and also the sixth game. Barron’s average But eight of the 56 games rolled were above the 200 mark, which is something unusual for the individual tournament In fact the scores recorded yesterday were the poorest, taken as a whole, on any day since the tournament opened. Look for G Match, Al. Jelligon and Charley Stokes, both of the De Soto Stars, are expected to furnish the best match on the De Soto alieys this afternoon.

Dr. French says: ‘‘It is no more than I ex- pect to hear pearly every man who consults me relate a long story of his having been unsuc- cessfully treated, but in nine cases out of ten such experience can he attributed to the fault of the afflicted man, for he has had him- self under the care of physicians of not snf- ficient age and experience to be past their ¢:- perimental practice," Any man seekibg treatment should know tt.at to insure bimself of effectual treatment he should employ a specialist of ripe age and long experience.

Teresas and St. Matthews fig- ure to furnish the closest game in the Athletic Park Soccer League double- header at Athletic Park this afternoon. The St. atthews: are running a close second to the Innisfails, having 14 points to 16 for the leaders. The St. Teresas have but nine point, but will have. a ee ey this afternoon, and may rchall’s team a setback. The Innisfails will meet the Thistles in the second game. The Thistles are at the Bottom in the league standing and not figure to give the Innisfalls anything more than a hard run at the best. The contest will be really an ex- hibition of how the canny Scots play soccer, as the majority of the players on both teams are Scotchmen ho plaved the game across the water before eoming to America.

Six Clubs Kiecounted to Have Chance for First--Cleveland Likely Can- | didate for Fall---Up to Browns to Seize Opportunity.

BY JAMES CRUSINBERRY S one expects Detroit and T. LOUIS, New York, Philadelphia and Cleveland are the four doubtful baseball clubs in the American League this year. one expects Washington or Boston to win the pennant and no icago to finish at the tail end. No one No knows what the other four clubs are likely to do. cities of comi and Chi If a guessing contest could be taken of the ball fans in all the the circuit as to the probable finish in the league race this season, it is safe to say that nine out of every ten would place o in the first division and ‘an equal percentage would shove Washington and Boston to the lower half. But on St. Louis, Cleveland, New York and Philadelphia, the. votes would very likely be about equal in placing these teams in the first and second divisions. They are the four guesses of the race and it would be hard to predict what any one of them will do. Here in St. Louis we have it all fig- ured out that if Dineen, Howell, Pelty and Powell, the four leading twirlers, can but keep in perfect. condition and ‘pitch something like the ball they have in the past seasons, St. Louis is going to be scrapping with the top clubs all ‘the way over the five months’ route. In Cleveland they are figuring that if Brad@ley, Turner, Lajoie and Flick can - come back to old-time form and hit the ‘ball as they once did, the Naps will be right at the top round of the ladder all the time. Down in New York the fans are see> ing the most wonderful visions of vie> tories with Chesbro and Orth once more the premier pitchers and Fred Glade, the speedy one, formerly of the Browns, winning about .900 per cent of his games, while they imagine Niles’ batting about .850 and: stealing fifty or sixty bases. In Philadelphia they are all wondering if Rube Waddell will return and fan ‘em out aS he formely did, which, with the assured good pitching of “Eddie Plank’ and the sure hitting’ of. Harry Davis and one or. two othérs, would bring the | Sigman mace more to the Puayer a ad be au.

So, because # possible for any’ One)‘at. these ta 1s, it makes next season's race consist of “six clubs, any one of which may pull down the honor. A miracle might be performed, of course, and give Boston or Washington the flag, ‘but under hu- man conditions they haven't @ look in, — . If one were to go dover to Cleve- and before the season opens, just t the time when, the fans are ail opeful, ‘men ready to give odds of 2 and 3 to that,.Cleveland will hot be shoved Hate eth ‘the second division, and if ‘that. visiting party cared to risk a few nths’ wages on the proposition, hej a hte ight have Geo.

and Stone are said to have become in- terested together in the Nome com- pany. : The Nome company was organized early in 1907, under a South Dakota charter, and has a capital stock of $2,000,000. William Holmes, manager of the New York Press, is president, and John A. Kloepfer, head of the Hambure- New York Water and Blectric Light Co.. is vice-president. \ Water Rights Valuable. The water rights owned by the com- pany, acording to the prospectus, ‘‘con- stitute 2700 miners’ inches with a nat- ura] fall of .300 feet capable .of generat- ing 2000 electric horsepower, thus ena- bling us to“°operate six of these mon- ster dredges on the property. The wa- ter is an asset of great value in a country where coal retails at $40 a ton, “Each of these dredges wili cost in the neighborhood of $120,000 installed on the property, the first to be paid for out of additional ones are to be paid for out of one-half of the net clean-up of\gold for each season; the other half going to dividends until the full complement of six dredges shall be working on the property when the entire season’s pro- fits will be distributed as dividends.” The prospectus continues: ‘‘As the open season in the Nome district amounts to only four months each sum. mer, or 120 days, and we allow 2% days each season for clean-ups, repairs and other stoppages, we count on 100 actual working days of 24 hours each season. ‘The five additional dredges to be paid for out of the profits would cost about $600,000 and assuming for the sake of most extreme conservatism that we “would be compelled to replace outside dredging equipment of six dredges ev- ery 10 years and the cost in each in- stance would be the same, we would have to expend $720,000 at four different tion to the original $600,000 for the five dredges, making a total of $3,480,000 for the sale of treasury stock and later subsequent periods, or $2,880,000 in addi- dredge out of stock sales to cover en- tire working perioa of 44 years. More Statistics. “Again with a view toward cxtreme conservatism by allowing 10 cents a cubic yard for operating expenses in- cluding all salaries, repairs and wages Which is niost liberal in view of the fact that similar operations are con- ducted at the present time in Cali- fornia at as low as 4% cents a cubic yard and averaging about 5% cents throughout the State, we would have to pay $8,053,760 for operating ex- penses covering the entire tract of 80,537,600 cubic yards, which together ment would take $11,533,760 out of the estimate in the gold values of $161,- 075,200, leaving actual net profits of $149,541,440, or a return of more than fifty times the entire capitalization’ of the company. “Deducting the entire capitalization of $3,000,000 from this amount would be sufficient to pay an average of 100 per cent annually for over 44 years to every stockholder on par, with his original investn.ent in his pocket. “Considering that the steck is now selling at 60 cents—per share this would be equivalent to 200 per cent on the in- vestment for over forty-four years to conie. Having been extremely and un- necessarily conservative in all compu- tations for equipment and operating ex- penses, etc., the only item we can cut down for the sake of the ‘doubting = is the gold deposit in the prop- erty. “So we will cut that {n half and in- stead of $26 per cubic yard, which is a low calculation, let us call it $13 per cu- bic yard and we still have 50 per cent on par for over forty-four years or 100 per cent on the basis of 50-cents selling price of stock after allowing for en- tire capitalization out of profit in con- nection with this.

The doc- tors advised an opera- tion, but I am glad to say that I did not fol- low their advice, . but began taking “Dr. Pierce’s Favorite Pre- scription instead. In a month’s treatment there was decided improve- ment and a few months’ faithful use restored me to perfect health, Have not had _ headache, nervousness or back- ache for months Yours truly, MRS. C, A. GREGG. Upon request we will furnish address.

A woman's health is a heritage too sacred to be experimented with. For her peculiar and delicate ailments only medicines of known composition and which contain no alcohol, narcotics, or other harmful or habit-forming drugs should be employed. The one medicine which fulfills all these requirements is Dr. Pierce’s Favorite Prescription—a remedy with a record of over forty years of cures to recommend it; a remedy, the makers of which print its formula on every bottle-wrapper and attest its completeness and correctness under oath, a remedy, every ingredi- ent of which has received the written endorsement of the most eminent med- ical writers of all the several schools of practice for the cure of woman’s peculiar diseases; ‘a remedy’ which has more bona-fide cures to its credit than any other sold by druggists for wom- an’s special requirements. It. is not iven away in the form of “trial bot- tles” to be experimented with, but is sold at a fair price by all dealers in medicines. Delicate, weak, nervous women should ny, shun the use of alco- holic medicines which, from their stim- ulat and exhilarating effects may seem, for a time, to do good, but which from the inevitable effects of the alco- hol in shrinking up the red corpuscles of the blood are sure to do great and lasting? harm in the me run, Besides 0 the ta Feil Hy r stimulants which js most deplora : Only invigorating use of this famous medicine for women. it can not possibly do harm in any state or: condition of the system. It has been carefully adapted to woman’s needs by. an enced ph specialist in th ick women

TUS SUNG 25 YEARS IN’ ONE CHURCH CHOln Second Baptist Congregation “Will Honor W. M. Por- teous at Reception. A reception will be given by the con- gregation of the Second Baptist Church, Beaumont and Lecust streets, next Wednesday evening, in honor of William M. Porteous’ twenty-fifth anniversary as a member of the choir of that church, lor a quarter of a century continuous- ly Mr. Porteous has been the bass solo- ist for this congregation. Tenors, 80- pranos, contraltos, organists and pas- tors have come and gone in that time, but Mr. Porteous has sung on and is still singing. | Thirteen hundred Sundays have passed during the time Mr. Porteous has served the Second Baptist Church with his voice and it is estimated that he has sung there on about 1200 of these. He has had a month’s vacation each year, and has been awavisome Sundays be- cause of illness. Every Sunday he has appeared in the choir loft Mr. Porteous has sung about four anthems. That would make nearly 5000 anthems he has spng in this church, and several] hun- dred solos must be added thereto to represent all his vocal work there. Arthur Lieber, now organist at the church, declares Mr. -Porteous is the best church singer in America, and is a marvel as an interpreter of sacred nins'c. Mr. Porteous devotes only his leisure time to music. He is the general agent in St. Louis of the Canadian. Pacific Railroad, and has been for many years. He is about 50 years of age and resides with his family at 4541 Morgan street. His twenty-fifth anniversary actually fell on the third Sunday in January, but Mr. Porteous was not then able to accept congratulations from the Second Baptist congregation. He was in a lhos- pital at Minkeapolis, undergoing treat- An operation performed on him there has improved him a great deal. Before this operation Mr. Porteous had suffered intense pain for two or three years from an ailment of the nerves in his right’ arm and shoulder. Mr. Porteous ts a Scotchman by birth. His father was a choir leader in Edin- urg. Before coming to the United States Mr. Porteous sang in the old Tron Kirk under Tom Mackie and in the St. Giles Cathedral choir under John Sinclair. For a time Mr. Porteous lived in Boston. He came to St. Lou's in 1882 and became the basso of the Sevond Baptist choir Jan., 19, 1883.

N. length announced Monday evening, Feb. the. opening of the Oppenheimer lj, as the date for new American Theater at the northeast corner of Seventh and .Market streets. The dete was fixed yesterday afternoon after a conference with the contractors and a careful examination of the work still to be compieted. am ae The work of wiring tle theater and installing the mammoth = switchboard was completed at noon yesterday. About 4 o'clock the lights were turned on all over the house and an inspection was made. It was then found that all the workmen were ready to leave except the decorators, asbestelith workers and carpenters. The asbestolith workers are laying the aisles and foyer floors with the material which is to take the place of carpeis and the carpenters are put- ting in the finishing touches. They will be done by the middle of the week. The decorators have ten days’ more work. Fhe work of putting in the seats will be begun tomorrow. Manager Oppenheimer announces that seats for opening week will be placed on Sale at the box office of the new theater Monday morning, Feb. 10, at 10 o'clock. The bill will be announced some time during ghe present week. It will be a good*one, as under its booking contracts the American is to have the very cream of vaudeville and the pick of whatever is to be had. The b@ilding, which is 12 stories and a mezzanine, will have cost on the open- ing date $950,0". This tucludes the hotel of 236 rooms. In addition to the cost of the ‘building, which also includes the decorations, ah extra $25,000 has been spent upon the furnishings. These fur- nishings are most elaborate and wil]! certainly be a surprise. The scenery, comprising seven full sets and twice as many drops, is all in position. The building is constructed of steel, white marble, enamel brick and concrete, even to the window and door frames. Its seats will be 22 inches wide and its aisles are six inches wider than ordinary. It has the most complete system of exits ever placed in A St. Louis theater. It is equipped with a _ sheet-steel curtain, which weighs seven tons and is rein- forced with a water curtain that can be operated either within or without the building. Its arrangement has sacrificed seating capacity to safety and. comfort. On the opening night. the public wil! be given an opportunity to inspect the new theater from gallery to green room. GIRL HATFLES HGHTS POLICE GENEVA, Feb. 1.—A mysterious girl Raffles and a male companion, whose identity also has not been established, have been arrested for burglaries at the railway station at Sc hupfheim, a little town near Lucerne. : Gendarmes approached’ them as they alighted from a train, whereupon the girl drew a revolver and fired six shots at them. One of the policemen was seriously wounded. At the same time she called on her companion to shoot, but though he possessed a revolver be made no use of it.. They were seized and taken to the police station. The girl said her name was Anna Kunemeyr, and that she was a native ef Hake, Germany. She gave her age as 18. She was fashionably dressed, wore valuable jewelry, and from her manner belongs apparently to a good family. Her companion, who is 3 years old, gave his name as Werner, and stated that he came from Berlin. - He appears to be quite under the domina tion of the girl. The police have since discovered that the names and addresses given are false, and that the girl's luggage comes from St. Petersburg. in the girl's luggage were found a set of burglar’s tools, a large quantity of jewelry, bank notes and gold... The mans trunks contained only clothing. He states that he is merely the girl's servant. The couple refuse to give any im- formation about themselves. > = > NO 7 ON 6 Ys a REG Oe a PTA * 5 es ee AT AT i hee Ne ‘yy ' ' 5 Paes r 4 P. mi é SF. » 5 : ‘ i ’ ee mT PRE THEN ALL WERE VACCINATED eo Kansas City Health Officers Swoop Down on Men’s Gospel Service. LODGING HOUSES SEEN Man Protests, Saying He Had Been Treated on Arm Since Amputated. KANSAS CITY, Mo., Feb. 1.—‘‘Coats off and your sleeves up, everybody!’ The command was given by James Downey, a patrolman, and the thirty or forty men in the Helping Hand Insti- tute’s Gospel Hall were surprised. They had attended the evening religious serv- ices and the officer’s order followed the benediction. Seven representatives of the city Health Department were with the patrolman. Dr. Eugene Carbaugh, who had charge of the squad explained: ‘‘You men are to’ be vaccinated. No use to kick now. Everybody who can’t show a scar has to submit.’ Dr. Carbaugh spoke good naturedly and the victtms entered ‘into the spirit of the thing by grinning. Some of them showed that they had undergone the operation. The others were vacci- nated. ? Within the last few days several cases of smallpox have developed in North End lodging houses. In most of these cases the afflicted man remained in the house two or three days before he or anyone else found out what was the matter. None of the cases were virulent, but after Dr. St. Elmo San- ders, City Physician, determined to vac- cinate those who lodge in North End houses. A Deaf and Dumb Man Protested. The Helping Hand Institute was not the only place visited. While a vac- cinating squad was busy there physi- cians were at work in the Helping Hand annex at 308-Walnut street, the Salvation Army’s workingmen’s hotel at 12 pe 8 Fifth street and the Webber House at Fifth and Delaware streets. In all, about 320 men were vaccinated, and more houses are to be visited. At the Webber House one of the lodgers was deaf and dumb. He pro- tested as vehemently as he could in signs and in writing. “It isn’t the law,” Sanders. On His Only Arm, Too, “Team the law.’ was the answer Dr. Sanders wrote, and he showed his star. The mute sumbitted, but his arm showed so good a mark that he was released. The Webber he wrote to Dr. House developed. more protests than any of the other places. A one-armed man said he was willing to swear he had been vaccinated on the arm that wgs missing. Was it his fault, he asked; that the arm had been cut off in a railroad wreck’ But the remaining arm was vaccinated. In a large room on the third floor of the Workingmen’s Hotel 1) men were found asleep in ‘‘double-deck’’ beds. They were awakened by the watchman who was guiding the vaccinators through the house. The business of the night was soon explained and the hun- dred men rolleqd back their — short sleeves. ‘“T don’t mind,” one said, ‘“‘but I wish vou had called earlier in the evening.” “We might not have found you at home,”’ was the reply. MURDERER CAUGHT BY CALLING AlD > — Russian Officer Robbed in Rouma- nia Found to Be a Fu- gitive. Feb. 1—By making a com- a traveler MILAN, plaint after being robbed, was found to be a Russian officer flee- ing after committing murder. When first questioned he stated that he was the son of Admiral Rataschievitch, com- mander of the imperial yaeht, adding that he had fled from Russia, as he had been a participator in a political plot. Soon, however, the Russian authorities asked tne ‘Roumanian Government for the extradition of the fugitive, who, they said, Was guilty of murder. Rataschievitch, it was alleged, had led a vicious and irregular life at Kishineff, where he Was an officer of Cossacks. Impelled-by the necessity of getting money, he agreed with a friend of his, named Romanoff, to murder the latter's father, Who Was a wealthy landed pro- prietor. Rataschievitch armed himself with a hammer, -and, assisted by his friend, cautiously entered the old man's bed- room and battered his head.

A ar POR tae enti on ore NL IOI é A ee te mere ee ooo PR +0 ™ IGE ANOS INVESTIGATION OF THE GRAND JURY Member of House, Which Is Called Hopeless, Says Big Men Escaped. PROMISES EVIDENCE Investigators Do Not Com- ment on Lack of Paving Competition. The December grand jury, in its fin- submitted to Judge Fisher declared that the situation in the House of Delegates is hopeless. The October grand jury, in its report sub- mitted two months ago, stated that the House was a menace to decent govern- ment and law and order, and a dis- grace to the city. The grand jury, of Delegates, said: “During this investigation a number of the members of the House of Dele- gates were before us, and we were thus afforded an excéilent opportunity of observing and judging their charac- ters and qualifications.’ Men Called Indifferent. “The situation in this body seems hopeless, for we find that in the main the members are either without quall- fication, or that they are cynically in- different to the duties and responsibili- ties which they have sought and as- sumed. “It seems that all legislation is in the control of the few men who head the important committees and _ that these members are not actuated by con- siderations of pu lic welfare. “The action of the majority in this body in retaining the absent witness, Daniel F. Naughton, on the payrolls of the city is a sufficient commentary upon al report yesterday, discussing the House the character and motives of those in eontrol,”’ Foreman Joseph L. Griswold said last night that he could add: nothing to the report of the grand jury regarding the House of Delegates. He sail the grand jury had made a conscientious and painstaking investigation of all charges of irregularities brought to its atten- tion. Gallagher Promises Evidence. James J. Gallagher, member of the Iiouse from the Third Ward, who was one of the witnesses before the grand jury,.and who is now chairman of a committee that is investigating Jailer Dawson, said yesterday that before the committee finishes its labors it proba- bly will disclose evidence which will enable the next grand jury to indulge in something more than “hot air.’”’ “So the grand jury just calls the membef's of the House over to get a look at us,’ observed “Jiggéers,” after reading the report. “Well, I guess we looked about as good as the smart guys from the Board of Public’ Improv ements, Or some of nie swell clubs around town, only we haven't got as much money. The g¥and jury raps the House of Delegates. Why doesn’t it indict us if we are so bad? All this hot-air talk isn’t getting the grand jury anything. It ‘passes up the Board of Public Improvements. Tho House of Delegates is going to do some investigating itself, and by the time it gets through with the Street Depart- ment it will have more ‘dope’ than the grand jury can get in six months. If the House of Delegates had the power. I think we'd just take a whirl at in- vestigating the grand jury and the Citr- cuit Attorney. I’m going to have the State Senate appoint a coinmittee to investigate the grand jury. I want to Know Why the Board of Public Improve- ments gets off so easy. Objects te Pledges. “We may-investigate the Second Dis- trict Police Court, too. I don’t see why a fellow should have to sign up a tem- perance pledge just because he hap- pens to get a little gay. We want to know how many of these pledges have been signed up. That scheme was tried o0 years ago, and proved a failure. We can do some good by looking into it now, “Dawson's got a hog pen inside of the city limits in violation of the city ordi- nance, and foreigners who act as em- ploying agents are getting 25 cents a day for every man the ‘y have working on the streets. There's a lot of city offi- cers, too, who have teams working on the streets. The grand jury indicted Linde and forced him to resign, but it hasn’t disturbed any body who is doing business with the men higher up. Wait till the House of Delegates gets through with these guys and the people will then see‘ the difference between a real investigation and one of these hot-air affairs over at the bour Courts. I want to repeat it, if there is anybody in the House of Delegates who needs indict- ing, he ought to be indicted, and if I could help the work along I'd be glatl to do it.”’ Chairman “Lawler Daley of the Democratic City Committee said that he did not care to discuss the report of the grand jury regarding the House of Dele- gates. Public Chose, Says Howe. Jeptha D. Howe, chairman of the Re- publican City Committee, said: “I read what the grand jury had to say about the House of Delegates. All I have to say is that the House of Delegates rep- resents home rule and the present merm- bers are the people’s choice. The public knows where I stood last spring. -The public chose the House of Delegates and it would be highly impertinent for me to criticise the men whom the people wanted to represent them in the House of Delegates."

The row began at the first of the year, when the sophomores scaled the tower and placed their colors on the highest pinnacles of the building. Since then the freshmen have been jealously watching for revenge. Yesterday the fourth encounter took place and this time the battle was lim- ited to feminine combatants. A few of the freshmen girls incenseq their ene- mies by wearing garters adorned with the class colors, a crime that demand- ed instant punishment at the hands of the sophomores. The fun began, when, tured a couple of freshmea girls with the avowed intention of removing the offending garters. The freshmen boys stood by, unable to take a hand in the fray, and saw their struggling com- rades borne into the cloakreom, where the operation was to take place. The | door was slammed and _the final after class, |hours, a bunch of sophomore girls cap- skirmish began immediately. There were sounds of scuffling, half stifled screams and smothered laughter that came to the anxious young men on the outside. The battle was long and fierce. Sud- denly there was an unusual commotion within the little cloak room. The door was jerked open and out dashed the two freshmen feminines with @isheveled halr and apparel. There was a gleam of triumph in their glance, however, as they took refuge behind the throng of freshmen boys. “Did they get ‘em?’ eagerly cried a half dozen masculine voices. ‘Well, hardly!" was the breathless re- ply, carrying with it a touch of dis- dain. ‘Look here,’ cried both the girls in unison, after a quick glance up and down the hal, “here they are.” There was a swish of skirts, a vision of ankles, then a shimmer of color and it was all over. The garters were there. crowded, but was high in its sated of the management of these institutions. Paving Called Good. On the subject of street paving the grand jury said that its conclusion was that the streets of St. Louis, in the matter of cost to taxpayers, compare favorably with those of other cities. It found, the report says, that the main- tenance guaranty was reduced from ten and seven years to five years to cbtain better pavements and avoid annoyances and uncertainty of long-time guaran- tees, and that the changes in bitulithic specifications to permit the use of lime- stone, instead of granite chips, was for the purpose of improving the pavement, and that the difference in the prices of the materials was not sufficient to war- rant any reduction in the cost of the paving. The grand jury did not comment on the closed specifications, which prohibit competition, or the straw bids that have been submitted to give a show of com- petition. DRIVER DUMPS COAL INTO SEWER, MISTAKING HOLE FOR OPENING TO CELLAR Arrest Follows and the Firm Rushes Men to Rescue the Fuel. NEW YORK, Feb. 1.—Charged with choking a sewer, Louis Friedman of 683 Eleventh avenue was arrested as the result of shoveling tons of coal into a manhole instead of the opening to a cel- lar. ‘ Louis drives a coal wagon. He reached the Hudson Apartnients, Riverside Drive, between Ninety-fourth and Ninety-fifth streets, late in the day with a load of coal. He lowered his chute and pro- ceeded to deposit the fuel in the cellar, as he supposed. Had he been observant he would have noticed there were twd iron covers sunk in the sidewalk ané that one bore the letters “D. P. \ the municipal monogram.

INOCULATED RABBITS ARE ASTRAY IN CITY Physician Who Used Bunnies for Experiments With Disease Germs Sends Out Warning. If you see any stray rabbits running around the streets and are able to cap- ture them, think twice before you eat them. The police are looking for 11 rabbits which have escaped from a hos- pital after being inoculated. Dr. Nathaniel Allison of the Martha Parsons Hospital, Channing avenue and School street, reported the escape. He said the ‘‘bunnies’ were locked up in au pen and that they either clawled out by themselves of someone stole them. The physician said that he had been experimenting with the rabbits. Just what he inoculated into the animals he forgot to mention, but he,said that he fears the result if the rabbits are caught and served up for dinner. The doctor could not be found by a Post- Dispatch reporter at his office or home last night. Rabbits are the most popular animals with the physicians for experimenting Purposes. Different disease germs are injected into them and the results al- most perfectly parallel the results of the diseases in a human being.

SULPHUR, Ok., Feb. 1.—Growing out of the organizatiun by a band of Chick- asaw Indian girls of a society known as the “I Will Have a White Husband As- sociation,” with Arrow Littleheart, a full-blood Indian girl, who lives near this city, as its chief mover, it is now generally known here that a marriage will soon be contracted between Henri De Ferres, a French nobleman, and Miss Juanita Lightfoot, a sister of Liz- zie Lightfoot, one of the moving spirits in the original organization. It was not until recently that the real identity of Count Henri became known and it would not have been discovered had it not been for the confiding disposition of two Indian girls.

Noah himself had a potion which in these days would be considered as strong as the ark today to convince the subcom-:

wood alcohol. You can’t remove the custom of drinking by a prohibition law.”* Miss Couzins told the committee that she had once been a prohibitionist, but had decided that prohibition was “a fraud and a failure.” She was. making her plea, she said, in behalf of the German-Americans of the country. The Constitution, she argued, guaranteed life, liberty and happiness and the right to drink was included in that description. “The Government draws annually $287,000,000 from the liquor traffic in the form of internal revenue,” she said. “You senators “raw a part of your sal- aries from that fund.

“CUT IT OUT” NO LONGER SLANG; HAS PRESIDENT ROOSEVELT’S SANCTION Chief Executive Uses Expressive Term Three Times in Latest Message to Congress. The phrase “cut it out’ is not slang any more.. It is as good and respecta- ble a piece of English as one can find in the works of Shakspeare, Milton or Elinor Glyn. Only two days ago the man who said ‘Aw, cut it out!”’ in reply to some dis tasteful suggestion, waa an uncouth slang-slinger. Today he can point to thrée. passages in President Roosevelt's latest messagé where the phrase, all but the introductory -“Aw” is used in the same sense. And who questions that Roosevelt is an authority on Eng- lish? None but undesirables and Ana- niases. In writing abnut the ‘“wrath’’ which the trusts are laying up for themselves the President says: “If Cougress does not act with thoroughness in cutting jut the evils * * * the result is cer- tain to be separate action of the states.”’ ;, A little nearer the Abraham Lincoln climax of the message, he exhorts the readers ‘‘never to swerve from our res- olute purpose to cut out wrongdoing and uphold what is right.’”’ Just two paragraphs beyond this he says that, even “if it were true that to cut out rottenness’’ meant an interruption of orosperity, he would »‘e there with the knife just the same. — But any trust magnate Who Jeplies to the President with “Aw, cheese it!’’ will be branded as a corruptor of the language.

REPRESENTATIVE HAMLIN AROUSES COMMITTEE IN HOUSE, DEAD SINCE 1873 Member From Springfield (Mo.) Wanted to Find Where $240,- 000 Incidental Expenses Went. WASHINGTON, Feb. 1.—Courtney W. Hamlin, Representative from . the Springfield (Mo.) district, {s the cham- pion life restorer of Congress. He has revived a House of Representatives committee that has been dead since 1873. Mr. Hamlin, in the committee juggle at the beginning of the session, found himself on the Committee on Expendi- tures by the State Department. He waited a fewitweeks for the calling of a committee meeting and then sought a reason for the inactivity. “The committee hasn’t met since 1873,’ he was told. “The secretary may re- port his expenditures to somebody, but the committee doesn’t knew who it is.” The committee has a room and a sec- retary and is supposed to do business. Mr. Hamlin argued that since the sec- retary spent $240,000 last year for Inci- dentals and had asked for $400,000 for the ensuing year, the House of Repre- sentatives, which had to vote the mon- ey, ought te know how it was spent. He wanted to know, anyhow. Consequently, he introduced a reselu- tion calling on the secretary for an item- ized report of all moneys spent for the maintenance of the ambassadorial, min- isterial and consulate service, for loca] expenses and for the United States Court in Corea. The resolution. was referred to the life- less committee and then its first meet- ing was held. The resolution was re- ported favorably and passed by the House. Secretary Root is now having prepared the first report of his department ever made of its incidental expenses. 7

He was a Felk supporter Folk declined to appoint Stephens’ brother-in-law, Charles EH. Leonard, a member of the Board of Managers ef the State Training School for Boys st Boonville. The Governor bas fm the past made a number of appointments requested by Mr. Stephens and in .ene instance refuseg to nominate a man posed by Stephens.

Point- Jing his revolver at them he ordered them to line up behind a counter and be searched. All three held their hands as high as they could. Apparently changing his mind, the robber called the boy, and, at the point of the revolver, forced him to open -the noney drawer. Taking all the drawer contained the robber backed through the front door after warning the young woman and the men not to move until he had time to get away.

OKLAHOMANS BUY “VINEGAR” AND THEN RECEIVE VINEGAR Thirsty See Oasis in Desert, but It Proves Only a Sad Mirage. ENID, Ok., Feb. 1—A man who ap- peared to be acquainted with the fact that Oklahoma is a prohibition § State, went through this part of the country taking orders for whisky—gvo0d whisky —he said, at $3.50 a gallon. He told the purchasers who paid in advance that when they called for thei: “stuff at the express office they must ask for vinegar. In due time the customers were noti- fied that their packages were in the express office. Accordingly the man who thought be I:d bought whisky went to the express office and calle for vinegar. He got what he called for—vinegar at $3.50 a gallon—poor yin- egar at that. SOV. FOLK LOSES “LID,” RIDES HATLESS IN COLD ‘ _ 2 SES Ir =D SS a ea) % WAU aie te During Yellow Fever Siege. CHATTANOOGA, Tenn., Feb. 1.—A general movement has been started to retire Miss Clara Wood. for thirty- three years a teacher in the city schools on half salary for life. Many of the business men of the city were her pu- pils when they were children. It was during the yellow fever scourge in 1878 that Miss Wood became most actively engaged in public work here. She and Miss Hattie Ackerman §re- mained here during that period and helped to nurse many of those who were stricken down. In fact, it was Miss Wood who was directly respon- sible for the recovery of several of the most prominent -.persons now living in Chattanooga, and her work at that time was the subject of praise Since then she had served as a schoo] teacher in the city schools, having been prine- pal for a number of years. This win- ter sne was stricken with illness and had to.go South in the search of health several weeks ago.

Feb. 1.—Nicholas Pickard has returned from Musatine, Io., as he is not the William Pickard wanted in Wapello, lo., for the murde; of William Teets, near Grand Vie 2 nearly thirty years ago, on suspicion of which he was arrested last week. Old-time residents of Grand View, who were intimately acquainted witi the murderer, looked at Pickard through the bars of his cell and every one declared that he was not the ‘iniatiee: In addition to this, Pickard proved that] at the time of the murder he was 4 resident of Mansfield, 0O. or. a sheet of red paper, curiously Ided and bearing: his name in hiero- glyphics, in a tray. “Reéeipts” Are Duns. , Every creditor gives all his debtors a sore on New Year’s for all that is : owed him, but these quittances are re- ed not as releases from debt, but % reminders to pay up, which the debt- _ Fs usually observe within a few days. ' No Chinaman would ‘soil his hands oS os gh ome during this festival, so that e doubiy romantic story comes in. Love at Sight. It was a case of love at first sight. according to the friends of the pair. which neither of them deny, nor do they deny that the marriage will take place to a certainty. While no formal an- nouncement has been made, yet it is acknowledged. ~ The remarkable part is that Miss Jua- | — nita does not belong to the white hus- , [I band society. When it was originally : | no organized she refused to join and scoffed at the idea, saying that if she loved an Indian boy she would as soon marry him as a white man. She even attempted to dissuade her sister Lizzie from entering into the organization, but to no avail. Dixie Colbert, of the electoral system, prominent Indians in his tribe, ‘is re- sponsible for the news of the Count’s real identity becoming known and the fact of the engagement being prema- turely announced. Chief Colbert, who is a_ half-breed, the white blood being of French descent, is a close friend of the young Indian heiress, and soon after his return from the last session of the Chickasaw Council, which met at Tishimingo, she immediately went to him and told the whole story. Up to that time Count Henri had kept the fact to himself and the girl, Now the story is in the hands of the entire community. ' Chief Colbert, thinking to play a trick on the unsuspecting couple told the news to a press representative of one of the principal associations, but said nothing of the engagement between the Count and his god-child. This he told later end an investigation soon developed the truthfulness of his statement. GUTHRIE, Ok.. Feb. i.—It has come at last. Col. Bill Cross, the genial Sec- retary of State of Oklahoma, has made a confession. Col. Cross has made the confession openly and apparently with- out fear of the consequences. Ever since Oklahoma has been a State the Secretary has written ‘Bill’ Cross on all official documents. His assist- grits started signing it that way when Col Cross was first installed, as the Secretary was too sick to take office. His name has been placed on the elec- tion ballot as “‘Bill’’ Cross. — In a letter to the Attorney-Genera! Col. Cross asks if it would be possible fur him to sign his real name, “William \. Cross,’ and confesses that this name and form would give him more pleasure and satisfaction’’ than the present form. Assistant Attorney-General Spillman wrote a brief but able opinion and tnereby easing the mind Col. Wiliiam M. Cross Mr. Spillman heid that ‘‘ac- ‘cording to the old English doctrine a man cannot have two names of baptism, but it seems that in the United States. where here is no union of church and state and no obligation on parents to baptise their children, the Christian nume may be changed as often as the patronymic,”’ It is all over..

Folk rode four squares through the strects of Jefferson City this afternoon with- out a hat. The temperature was hover- ing about 10 degrees above zero and a 40-mile gale was sweeping across the ice-covered Miseourl River. The Governor was driving to the Cap- itol when the wind caught his hat and sent it sailing far across the street onto a lawn. “Don’t gtop,” shouted the Governor, as the driver began pulling on the reins, “give them the whip.” And he settled farther down into his big fur coat. The Governor was cold when he reached the Capitol four blocks away. He sent his office messenger after the hat, which was found covered with dirt. apples to Prof. J. H. Skinner of the Purdue Agricultural School for $15.50. This is at the rate of about cenis an apple, ag the bushel centained 150 ~ 5 agg The apples were of medium size. In adu..ion to the sale of the apples Mr. Flick took first prize with them at the Purdue show recently. The prize was $ in cash.

Proba- bly no social organization in the whole country is so mysterious. The Imperial Club is the “Four Hundred” of St. Louis, but, unlike the famous “Four Hundred” of Gotham, you can not find out who the members are. Even the members themselves are not certain as to who their fellows are until the Im- perial ball is given. No one knows defi- nitely who belongs to the Imperial Club save the mysterious committee or governing board, the personnel of which is a profound secret. This committee elects its own members and elects the club officers, and even the club members can only surmise and make guesses as to who is on the committee. The Imperial Club was established in 1852 by as

In the entire history of the club such permission to join never has been declined. If it becomes desirable to drop @ member from the rolls, which is rarely done, the “undesira- ble” receives another mysterious notice to that effect. He does not know whence this notice comes (the committee, so far as he is concerned, being an intangible, ghostly sort of force that strikes out of the darkness) and he has none to appeal to for readmission. The Imperial Club has no archives. Its history rests on proud tradition, handed down from gen- eration to generation verbally, like the cult of the ancient Druids. Nobody ever was known to have seen a list of the membership. Nobody but committeemen themselves ever knew definitely

i “who composed one of the mysterious Somimltceeee The names of a few ex-presidents of the club © are known. Frank Hirschberg is one. Jesse Jan-' uary another. Joseph Gilbert Chapman a third. Mr. Hirschberg served as president for 10 years. He is not an officer of the club at present. Harry Potter of 5814 Cabanne place is secretary of the club. - The membership numbers about 400, so the club. is literally the St. Louis “Four Hundred.” Chil- dren or grandchildren of original members, when they reach maturity and enter society, dre ad-’ mitted to the club almost as a matter of course. The organization has no clubhouse and never has‘ had. In the beginning its dances—it is a’ dancing club—were given at private residences. Soon the membership grew too large, however. “Soon” in the history of the Imperial Club means a quarter of a century, for the club was 25 years old when the first dance was held in a hall. When the St. Louis Club house was erected about a decade ago, arrangements were made for the dances of the Imperial Club to be given there. The club gives two dances a year—one in the early winter and one just before Lent. No other meetings and no other functions of any kind are ever given in the club’s name. The place of meeting of the mysterious committee is known only to the committee members. ‘The names of the cliaperones for the two balls are made public, however. The last ball was given Jan. 10. The chaperones for that event Were: Mesdames Joseph Gilbert Chapman, Danie! Oat- lin, John David Davis, Frederick B, Ewing, D. R- Francis, F.

Sears’ first receiving station was # coal scuttle on the end of a pole.

There may be, say some prophets, a wireless “central,” with an arrangement so that anybody can get connection and hick off a message or recewe one. By then the wireless tele- phone may be here, and music, laughter, speeches and tidings of all kinds can be sent and recewed without street or conduit wires.

spired to Thoughts of Murder by Witnessing “East Lynne?” — Young Woman and Her Mother Shot Two Hours After ~~ Performance—Girl's Sweetheart Moans in Prison BY ANNA LEB. TY 'S # remarkab.e charge that hangs ove! Virgil Tolberd, a young man at Maryville. Mec. It is alleged that he attended a pr formance of “Fast Lynne” at the little Maryvill Opera House, which so stirred his emotions that he borrowed a shotgun and tried to assussi- nate the girl he loved and her mother as the: lay in bed at 1:30 o’clock in the morning. if the charge against him be true, then, to my thinking, this is a case of unusual psycho- logical interest, a strange, inexplicable blending of the influence of the drama on the human in- telligence, of love, and of the desire to take life. Thousands of men, women and children have seen “East Lynne’ played, but 1 never heard i! charged, before that this drama incited te. attempt murder. Wherein. then, does Virgil Tolberd differ mentally, morally and spirituali, from the tens of thousands of other persons who have sat through “East Lynne” in hundreds of anvone \ theaters in the last 20 years? Except for this one peculiar fact, the shooting of Emma Boat wright and her mother, Mrs. Mar- garet Boatwright, would be a cheap little coun- tiyside tragedy that failed in the execution. Somebody fired a shotgun through a window of He Boatwright farmhouse and a number of the lead pellets struck the two sleeping women, wounding them, but not—very seriously. Nobody would have cared save the Boatwright family and a few people in and around Maryville, if it had vot been for the statement of Virgil Tolberd himself: ‘Il went And right here posing always that he is guilty as charged, which remains to be proven—you have as strange and subtie a psychological, conundrum as I’ve met re- cently. about this matter. sup- A Young Plowboy’s Dreams.

These mimic re- productions of life in the “great world’ outside the farm take a firm hold on his imagination.

If’s not to be wondered at that a young plow-

The curtain rises. 1 can see ip sea of eager faces all upturned toward the siag declaim to the ad- I see, too, in my my fancy the the actors strut aid miration of the rural audience. fancy, the pallid face of Virgil Tolberd, regarding all this with a tense, glcomy. expression. The play progresses, the plot manifests itself, dramatic climax succeeds dramatic climax. At last the final scene is reached. The heroine of the play, disguised as a nurse in her own home, reveals her identity at the deathbed of her be- loved child, who dies in her arms.

TY §S « remarkab.e charge that hangs ove: Virgil Tolberd, a young man at Maryville. Mc. It is alleged that he attended a pre formance of “Fast Lynne” at the little Maryvill: Opera House, which so stirred his emotions that he borrowed a shotgun and tried to assassi- nate the girl he loved and her mother as the: lay in bed at 1:30 o’clock in the morning. if the charge against him be true, then, to my thinking, this is a case of unusual psycho- logical interest, a strange, inexplicable blending of the influence of the drama on the human in- telligence, of love, and of the desire to take life. Thousands of men, women and children have seen “East Lynne’ played, but 1 never heard i! charged before that this drama incited anvone te attempt murder. Wherein. then, does Virgil Tolberd differ mentally, morally and spirituali, from the tens of thousands of other persons who have sat through “East Lynne” in hundreds of \ theaters in the last 20 years? Except for this one peculiar fact, the shooiing of Emma Boatwright and her mother, Mrs. Mar- garet Boatwright. would be a cheap little coun- tivyside tragedy that failed in the execution. Somebody fired a shotgun through a window of the Boatwright farnmihouse and a number of the lead pellets struck the two sleeping women, wounding them, but not very seriously. Nobody would have cared save the Boatwright family and a few people in and around Maryville, if it had vot been for the statement of Virgil Tolberd himself: “I went to the show that night.” And right here--sup- posing always that he is guilty as charged, which remains to be proven—you have as strange and subtle a psychological conundrum asel’ve met re- cently. A Young Plowboy’s Dreams. The advent of a “show” is an event in Ma: ville and towns of that size. Everybody who can. except a few who have hard and fast religious scruples against the theater, buys tickets and is present long before the curtain rises on the fiist act. And the audiences are not very disciimi- nating. They are powerfully stirred thin, mawkish acting, often-times. On the horny-handed young fellow who spends his days plowing or doing other farm work, who “goes to bed with the chickens” and whose onl) social diversions consist of district tertainments” now and then and an occasional “a show at the opery house” m@#£es a deep impression. He thus obtains his only glimpses of tffe do- ings of “rich city folks,” of the ‘villains’ who dwell in the metropolis, of the dark tgagedies and heart-wrecking romances that take in the teeming cosmopolitan centers. These mimic re- productions of life in the “great world” outside the farm take a firm hold on his imagination. As he follows the plow he dreams of himself as the hero of the “show,” in his heated fancy he rescues the fair heroine while “the villain still pursues,’ and of course the fair heroine loves him devotedly ever aftérward. It’s not to be wondered at that a young plow- about this matter, by vers _boy should dream such dreams in the midst of his sordid life. But here is a case where a voung man is said to have been inspired to the thought of a dreadful murder—murder of the girl he loved by witnessing the old, old play, “Easi-: Lynne.” school “en- ° » Pg = & eT eee M Pay ®, ey ? ~ ns u 7 oa re 2 Ee DS a Oe, Gentes: ; ew ace ‘ie a, xe Gres Sony er “ig P a & Let us take a look alt the actors in that queer rural drama which followed so. swiftly on the ringing down of the curtain on that other drama in the country town opera house. Of course, the principal interest centers i: Virgil Tolberd him- self. He is now 25 years old ard is a “country boy.” At the time the attemnpi was made to assassinate \irs. Boatwright and her daughter, Tolberd was eniployed on the farm of B. L. Converse, not far from that of the Boatwrights, which is two and abe-hbalf miles from Maryville. The voung man is 6 feet tall and inclined to slenderness, but he is muscular, has large ears, but he isn’t bad looking by a whole lot. Those who knew him regarded hini as a mild- mannered, gentlemanly sort of a young fellow. He was not dissipated nor quarrelsome. His eyes are almost soft enough to be called dreamy and he has the look of one givén to musing and fanci- ful dreamings with himself. And he was not ex- actly content with a plowboy’s life. Rural Beauty His Heroine. His costume when he was taken to the Mary- ville Jail gives an insight into his character. He wore a black coat and trousers, a white vest and a lavender four-in-hand cravat. His hat was of felt and white, a shape and color much affected by rural dandies,*while the color of his necktie— lavender—indicates a love of bright hues usual- lv found in imaginative temperaments, and a de- sire to ‘“‘put up a front.” 1 don’t think I misjudge this tall young farmer boy when | call him sentimentai and rather vain. He took a pride in his clothes because he wanted to be “the real thing,” and after he had seen a play, which he imagined gave him some correct ideas about what “the real thing’ really is, be had food enough for months of castle-in-the-air build- ing and fanciful musings while he followed the homely plow up one furrow and down the next. And this imaginative plowboy with the white fedora hat and lavender cravat was in love with a noted at the country dances, the dis- trict school entertainments and the Sunday school picnics, as « beauty, She had the glow of splendid health and youth in her rounded cheek, and, doubtless, knew how to coquette, for what lassie, no matter how far into the country she may live, does not hHOW sonething of the great feminine irt .of coquetry ?

But Mr. and Mrs. Boatwright, say some of their neighbors. did not look with approval'on the at- iertions paid by Tolberd to their daughter.

I see, too, in my fancy, the pallid face of Virgil Tolberd, regarding ali this with a tense, glcomy expression. The play progresses, the plot manifests itself, dramatic climax succeeds dramatic climax. At last the final scene is reached. The heroine of the play, disguised as a nurse in her own home, reveals her identity at the deathbed of her be- loved child, who dies in her arms.

\ HOUSANDS of men and women in St. Louis and the Southwest are 7 toiling daily to create the wealth over which Count Boni de Castellane and the Prince Helie de Sagan are quarreling, striking and spitting at each other in the gutters of Paris* — Brakemen, track workers, switchmen, clerks, agents, engineers, firemen and other humble employes of the Missouri Pacific and Wabash railroads are spending their lives building up a fund, a desire to enjoy whicl. leads De Castellane, member of an ancient nobility, to expectorate on the who repays the insult in kind.

They pummeled each other. They used canes for fencing foils; wounding several glossy silk hats. They spat upon each other with all the lofty wrath that only the heart of the French nobleman can feel. At first there was talk of a duel—a duel with swords or pistols. But each nobleman asserted that his enemy was a socia] outcast too utterly disreputidle to aspire to the honor of being killed, or even neatly “pinked” by a real gentleman. So De Sagan contented nimself with suing De Cas- tellane for 20 cents : Now, though the duel gossip has died out, Paris is on the qui vive. E~ery time an excited crowd gathers quickly and loud, shrill voices are heard, the gamins and everybody else within earshot rush to the scene. “Let us hurry,” they exclaim, “it is probably Boni and Helle spitting at each other!” j The populace of Paris is rather at a loss to understand these oft-repeated expectorative com- he's hetween the two proud noblemen. But in St. Louis the matter is comprehended more accurately. For here it is known that the Wabash and the Missouri Pacific are very profita- b.e railroad properties. And the bulk of Mme. Anna Gould's fortune, you know, is invested in the s.iOcas and bonds of those two roads. So really, every time you pay 60 cents for a ride dawned COUSIN.

COUNT DE CAST ELLANE

on either one of those railroads you are adding to that about which Boni and his cousin are scuabbling. The cruel knife of divorce severed Boni from the Wabash and Missouri Pacific revenues, but un- happily not until he had found out how delightful it was to spend a goodly portion of what two big railroad systems earn. He did that during the 11 years of his married life to the tune of a little over $2000 a day. He got rid of $8,000,000 in that time, all of which money came from St. Louis and the surrounding territory penetrated by the Gould roads. Now De Sagan, according to common report, is seeking access to the millions earned by the stout railroad men of this part of the country. That is, he is believed to be’a suitor for the hand of Mme. Gould, disagreeable as it may be to noblemen of ancient lineage, it is necessar) to marry Anna Gould before one can revel in the net profits of the Wabash and Missouri Pacific. Boni thoroughly enjoyed spending railrcad earn- ings, and would like te marry his former. wife again and lavish a few rmore millions in the pur- suit of luxury and pleasure. Helie de Sagan ob- served the high spirits of Boni while the latter was pouring out cash and he (Prince de Sagan) would like to liquidate a few stray millions him- self. Ergo, the eminent noblemen spit in each other’s faces. These facts have aroused a lively interest in the minds of many St. Louis railroad men. A sturdy switchman with a broad. athletic chest and wearing jumpers and overalls, was hailed 2s he left his work .the other day. “Well, I see you are working hard money for the French nobility,” was suggested to him. “How's that?” asted the switchman. “Tt thought ] was working for the company.” “Why, haven't vou read in the newspapers about Boni de Casteilane and Prince Helie de Sagan fighting in the gutters of Paris about the SUNDAY MAGAZINE.

Huh!” The switchman expresse¢ an intention of “:aying off’ and taking advantage of the low transatlantic steamer rates to go to Paris and see for himself the two titled spitters ‘Perhaps I would catch them in the middle of a spitfest,” he remarked. “I would like to see a Prince and a Count get real worked up over the net profits of the Mo.

The feud between Castellane and Sagan is an exceHent illustration of how greed for railroad dividends affects men—especially when they are proud noblemen. The first combat occurred about New Years. It took place in front of the church of St. Pierre de Chaillot. The funeral of Lady Stanley Errington, a rela- tive of both men, who cied in England, was held at the church that day. Boni was present. Helie was present. Boni sat near the aisle and Helie got up to leave the church first. As he passed Boni he slapped his high hat onto his head, turned his nose arro- gantly toward the zenith and swaggered. This was a deliberate insult and the blue blood in Boni’s veins boiled with wrath. Boni burriedly left the church. He His Highness, Prince de Sagan. in fpont of the sacred edifice.

Boni spent the evening visiting the newspaper offices and explaining, as he threw back a fur overcoat and exhibited a costly white silk waist- 2oat (both of which were purchased with Missouri Pacific earnings) that Sagan was a “social out- cast,’ that he wasn’t invited to the funeral any- way, that even a respectable corpse wouldn’t associate with Sagan, and that, last of all, Sagan had insulted both Boni and the church.

It may be had for only $250,000, perhaps a trifle less if the purchaser haggled a little. Will some fond father or devoted young hus- band in St. Louis buy the wondrous gem and place it at the throat of a radiant miss or- lovely young matron here in this city? Perhaps not. But there are women in St. Louis society beautiful enough to wear even the Hope, a gem such as a monarchy might buy for its royal crown. And there are papas and husbands in St. Louis rich enough to buy the great blue diamond if they ‘‘took the notion.’’ ND what would society have to say if sqme A fair flower of St. Louis femininity shot appear all ablaze with the indescribable luster of the Hope? The Hope is not only the most magnificent pe- culiar gem in existence, but its origin is invested with a romantic mystery that adds greatly to the world-wide interest excited by this marvelous fragment of irridescent, blue, Plutonian fire. In the majestic days of the “Ancient Regime” when Louis le Grand was on the throne of France and the business of royalty was more august and brilliant than it ever was before or has been since, Tavernier purchased in India an immense blue diamond of surpassing loveliness, a gem that’ outshone any other gem in the collections of Orient or Occident, royal or otherwise. The Tavernier gem was placed in the jewel caskets of King Louis and the world held its breath when the glory of this diamond was described. But even in royal courts moth and rust cor- rupt and thieves break tf and steal. Just ex- actly this last did happen in the year 1792. The femous Tavernier diamond, together with other crown jewels of King Louis were filched by the bold rogues, who committed a theft which was almost treason as well as the grandest kind of grand larceny. ‘*‘Premier Gem of the Earth.’’ France. and the Continenc were searched high and low. In the year 1830 Henry Thomas Hope, a London banker with a tremendous fortune, bought a matchless blue diamond for the pretty sum of $90,000, Thereafter that diamond was known as the “Hope,” It has been recognized as the pre- mier gem of the earth ever since. Subsequently Edwin W. Streeter, a rich Lon- doner, bought anoiher blue diamond, a counter- part of but smaller than the famous Hope in its an ineffable blue. In 1874 another stone, drop-shaped and weighing 133-4 carats, was sold at Geneva and placed in the collection of the Duke of Brunswick. The Brunswick blue diamond cost 17,000 francs. Now, the Tavernier diamond, in the rough, weighed 1123-16 carats and after it was cut it weighed 671-8 carais and was the only stone of lis peculiar color known to the gem dealers of any country. But the hope diamond, the Bruns- wick diamond and the Streeter diamond are all of the sams color, and allowing for loss in cutting, their combined weights aggregate that of the long-lost stone of King Louis le Grand. Mr. Streeter, who owns one of the three great blue diamonds, often has expressed the opinion that his gem is a part of that greater one which once blazed amid the crown jewels of the great French King. But this is just a theory, after all. And where is the famous Hope diamond now? It’s right here in this country, in the safe of a New York jewelry house, which recently con- ves aa itself unable to continue in business unless “something was done.” Barly tn January several big New York jewelry houses announced them- selves financially embarrassed. They were: The Joseph Frankel Sons Co., Joseph Frankel's Sons, Gatile, Ettinger & Hammel, all of 576 Fifth ave- nue, and E. M. Gattle & Co. of 420 Fifth avenue. It Would Create a Furore. These four corporations announced that thei) united Habilities were $4,500,000 and their joint assets $6,250,000. It was interesting, of course. as throwing a sidelight on the situation in New Vork, that four such big jewelry houses should be having rough seas to sail in. But the popular ipterest was greatly enhanced by the news that me ownership of the Hope diamond was one oj ae contributory causes for the troubles the Joseph. Frankel Sons Co. was having. This company tmported the Hope diamond about five years ago, and in all the time since then has been endeavoring to sell it to some million- atre The price asked was $250,000, but nobody seemed very eager to buy a single diamond—not even the imperial Hope—at any such figure as .aa1, and no offer was made that the Frankels considered came near the value of the great blue gem. So they kept it in a big steel safe and waitea uniil the panic came, and then they felt che discomfort of having a large block of capita! tied up in one single article so small it could be put into a little drawer of the safe. Thus it happens that the most beautiful diamond in the world, to be part of the greatest crown jewel Grand, is now hunting a purchaser try and might come to St. Louis if some father or busband Aecides to buy it for And probably right now there are young wom- er. in Westmoreland place or somewhere else in the fashionable West End teasing father, or brother, or. husband for this matchless jewei. There are larger diamonds—a few—than the Hope, for instance the stupendous Cullinan stone, which is,qbout the size of a brick and would be out of the question as a personal ornament un- lk ss cut into pieces. The Hope Diamond is acccrded pre-eminence be- cause of its color. Just imagine such a jewel, set in a transcendant brooch, all afire, at the fair throat of a young society bud in the receiving line at some ultra- fashionable reception, or flashing and scintil- lating and blinding the eyes as she whirled round the ballroom floor. Or suppose it set as the principle piece of a rope of diamonds hanging like a chain of flame down upon the breast of a beau- tiful St. Louits girl. Or, again, fancy it in some amazing tiara, gleaming, and glowing like a fragment of vivid lightning in the raven or golden tresses of a regal West End miss. But who would wear it? Well, for one, there’s Miss Vera Giannini, a fair bud of the Faust family. Even the matchless Hope would not be out of place worn by Miss Giannini, you will find many St. Louis people to affirm. Miss Louise Nugent is another who might wear this great gem appropriately. Or, for instance, Miss Dorothy Shapleigh or Miss Marie Overholz, two distinct typeg, yet both fitted to wear the premier diamond of old Louis le Grand. And of the young matrons—there is Mrs. Julius Walsh Jr., who has enhanced beauty by outdoor life in the saddle, following the hounds afield. And Mrs. “Jim” O’Neil and Mrs. Horace Rum.:. sey. You will find scores of men and women in St. Louis to tell you that no one could wear the famous gem with greater distinction than these two unquestionably lovely women. And the list—maid and matron—might be THE GREAT DIAMONDS OLLOWING are the most famous dia- monds, with the weight of each: The Cullinan, uncut, 3032 Karats; the Braganza, owned by the Portuguese Crown, 1880 karats; the Koh-I-Noor, owned by the English Crown, 1061-16 karats (this stone, uncut, weighed 793 karats, was first cut by Hortensio Borgia to 186 karats, and later still further cut by order of the Eng- lish Government to’the present weight); the Orloff, 1841-4 karats; the Florentine, owned by the Austrian crown, 139 1-2 karats, yellow in color; the Regent, sometimes called the Pitt, 139 1-2 karats; the Star of the South, 125 karats; the Nassac, 89 3-4 karats; the Sancy, 531-2 karats, and the Hope, 441-2 karats. The Hope is down the list in weight, but owes its universal fame to its pecullar color, which makes it more prized than much heavier stones. strung out indefinitely, for there is no lack of beauty—no, nor lack of millionaires in St. Louis. But gracious, what a furore the coming of the Hope diamond would create in St. Louis! [t would make the whole of Chief Smith's detective force sit up and take notice, as well as the society folk. Who would want the job of society detective when such a jewel—just think of $250,000 in one single stone!—was being carried around at the throat or in the hair of some frail slip of a girl. ‘aughing and thinking more about what Charlie or Jack or Jimmy thought of her, after all, than It From all Other Stones — Believed Stolen From Louis ry y. » iA iy \ kanbeLen {2-4 ‘ +.

OF they could waylay the carriage tn which milady of the Hope rode home, seize the horses’ bridles and grab the diamond before help could reach the acene. Just think of it! _ A piece of loot that one could shove into his coat pocket or hide in a fence corner if pursuit got SUNDAY MAGAZINE -ST. LOUIS too hot—and yet worth the tidy sum of $250,000 any day in the year. And it could be cut up again into smaller stones, as the Louis XIV stone is thought to have been, and sold piecemeal abroad or in New York, and who would be the wiser? It is nothing remarkable for an immensely rick. woman—daughter or wife of a many times mil- lionaire—to wear jewels costing more than $250,- 000. Some of the Newport set have been known to appear at social functions with more than half a million dollars’ worth of diamonds blazing about their hair and corsage. But that is one thing and the Hope diamond is another. To make up the half-million dollars’ worth of jewels of the Newport dame many diamonds are required— diamonds {n tiaras, diamonds in bracelets, dia- monds in brooches, diamonds im necklaces and diamonds set in other forms of jewelry. And when a rich woman has such an enormous quantity of jewelry she always has _ imitation copies made of the principal pieces and ve'). very often, when her friends and associates are aware that she possesses the genuine, she wes the copies merely, for none but an expert could te'! the difference, anyway, and then, it’s safer. .

Yesterday, when I arranged some of Laura's old white frocks for her, and told her that little girls of her ‘omplexion looked better in white than in anything else, she clasped my hand and kissed it and said: ‘I will always wear white as long as I live!’ ”’ Miss Halcombe and I kept our secret from Miss Fairlie. The summer and early autumn days glided by like a happy dream, uneventfully, until the sudden awakening brought me face to face with the sad spectre of my own folly. I loved Laura Fairlie—I had loved her from the first. When I remembered my position, and put myself on my guard, it was too late. sahough I had never confessed my weakness, even to myself, Miss Fairlie read( my heart, and her beautiful eyes said in their own lan- guage: “I am sorry for you, sorry for myself!’ Marian said: “You must leave Limmeridge House, Mr. Hartright—not because you are only a teacher of drawing, but because Laura Fairlie is engaged to be married. Her engagement was made before her father’s death, and h future husbund is Sir Percival Glyce of Hampshire. “Knight or baronet?" I asked. with sudden thought of the woman in white. “Baronet, of course.”’ Poignant as was my suffering, I! felt u still stronger sense of § forebodiiiz about Miss Fairlie. [ had made _ ar- rangements to quit Limmeridge on Iri- day or Saturday, for on the Monday following a visitor was expected, and I had the bitterness and despair of knowing that expected visitor to be Sir Percival Glyde.» But now, on this iden- tical, fateful day, Miss Halcombe con- fided to me the startling fact that her sister had received an anonymous let- ter—an incoherent rambling epistle, yet clear enough in this passage: | “Do you believe in dreams? Take warning from mine. I thought I saw you standing inside the communion rail of a church, beside the man you were to marry. He was a fair, active, high- spirited man, about 45 years old to look at. But I could see down into his heart, and there was written in letters of flame: ‘Without pity and without re- morse. He has strewn with misery the paths of others, and he_ will live to strew with misery the path of this woman by his sideX "’ Miss Halcombe etended to regard this missive as an _ ignoble slander, which Sir Percival would instantly ex- plain away. Yet in the same breath she betrayed her desire that I should aid her in immediate, if cautious, investi- gation. So, together, we made inquiries about the neighborhood, without result. The village schoolmaster had kept a lad in as punishment for persisting in the statement that he had seen a ghost in the churchyard. But that seemed naught to our purpose, until the little fellow chanced to blurt out that it was “the ghaist o' Mistress Fairlie’ that he had seen. On that hint, I made my Way alone to the old -chureh on the moorland. to- ward sunset, and watched. My heart almost stopped beating as I saw ap- proaching a woman in a long cloak, be- low which a few inches of her gown were visible—it was white! She came Hialcombe took my hand and .to the white marble cross which every- body knew marked the grave of the late Mrs. Philip, Fairlie, and in her hand she held a handkerchief, which She had moistened at the brook. I saw her kiss the white cross, then kneel down fore the inscription and begin cleansing it. She looked up with a little cry of terror when I spoke to her: then recog- nized me as I recalled our previous meeting. “You don't think I ought to be taken back to the asvlum, do you?” she said. “Neither: does Mrs. Clements—she is the friend to whom I went that night in London.

His conduct in every way is marked by the utmost tact, delicacy and for- bearance—for Laura, though touched and reassured by his devotion, is not warmed. That being the case, it was certain her’ frank and noble nature would speak out, unreservedly.

I left off in Limmeridg¢e churchyard; I resume tn my humble London lodgings, which I have taken u. der an assune name, together with a lower floor occupied by twu women who are described as my sisters. Here we work and here we hide: fer Marian Halcombe d myself are believed to be the accomplices of mad Anne Cath- erick, who claims the name. the »lace and the living personality of the dead Lady Glyde. Laura, Lady Glyde, is socially, mor- legally dead, and according to outward formality ties buried beside her mother in Limmeridge cnurehyard. And et Laura Fa rile is alive! Alive in’ poverty and in hiding. Alive with the poor drawing master to flehbt her battle and to win the way back for her to her place in the world of living beings. Forlorn and changed, her mind clouded, fortune gone, yet she is nine to support, to protect, cherish, to res mine to honor, as father and brother both. Marian and I have put together our small earnings and savinge, making a fund of more than £400, to be religious- iy devoted to those secret inquiries and investigations for Lauras sake. The astounding villainy which brought about these changes may be briefly indicated. Profiting by Miss Halcombe's iong and severe illness, Sir Percival Glyde and Couns Fosco contrived, by a series of the Most fiendish machina- tions, to make a captive of Lady Glyde and to have her inearcerated in the asylum as Anne Catherick, while the real Anne Catherick, whom they final- iy found, wasiijg away in the last stages of a mora! thaludy, died at Rlackwater and was buried as Laura, Lady Giyde, Her bushband inherited her fortune and ie at this moment living en the Contivrent of Murup ( ‘eoutet Foseo dropped out of sight at the same linicwtube was removed to Limmeridee, whete she slowly recov- ered.

My own returr and the blessed meeting in Limmeridge churchyard I have already relaied., Now, my own paramount task, next to the unremitting labor of love in re- storing Laura to health and happiness, is to fathom the dark life-secret of Sir Percival Uivde and the Cathericks; to ald Nemesis in brin ‘ng just retri- bution upon. him and redeem the rights of others which he has so remorselessly usurped. CHAPTER IV. Tangied Lives Unraveled. Y inquiries in Hampshire brought M me back into communication first with Mrs. Catherick, mother of Anne, and second with cler- gymen, lawyers and others who- were conversant with We somewiiat equivocal family history of Sir Percival Glyde. It became clearly apparent to me that the association between Sir Percival and Mrs. Catherick was not primarily of a scandalous nature and had noth- ing whatever to do with the parentage of Anne. There was, however, a close bond, of an entirely different nature, between the baronet and that women, and after much patient and intri ate work J found evidence that that bond was their mutual possessi-_ . a secret involving -‘he iegitimacy ot Sir Perci- val himself and his right to the title he the bore. Mrs. Catherick’s husband had the parish clerk at Welmingiam, and it was in the old church there that, ac- cording to Sir Percival’s statement, his een ward. The firemen turned it over and by the light of a laniern I gazed upon the lifeless, distorted features of the faise Sir Percival Givde. He had dogged me to his own destruction. After the trugic end of the usurper of Blackwater Park I received a long let- ter from Mrs, Catherick, who had kept a scornful, deflant silence when I had questioned her personally some weeks bevore. She now admitted what T had suspected then—that five and 2 year# hetore Sir Percival had bribed her to let him in the chureh vestry with her hushand’s keys, and so she knew tne secret of the forgery. Mr. Catherick heard gossip about the Baronet and hie wife which confirmed his own mia«di- rected suspicions and he left her. She was nothing loath. She shamelessly en- joyed her fteedom, accepted the money settlement which Sir Percival made her and kept his secret. This was shortly before the birth of little Anne. When the child grew up the guilty Baronet feared what she might have learned frem the mother — who fn her heart hated him-so he took advantage of the poor young creature's mental deficiency and, with the consent of her heartle«« parent, shut her up in the asylum. “Now I have satisfied your curiosity.” concluded Mrs. Catherick’s letter to me. “and must add one word of serious re- monstrance and reproof: If you allow vourself to doubt that my husband wa« Anne’s father, you insult me in the gsrossest. manner.” But I did doubt ft: and elsewhere tn the same letter I found certain possthle clews which led me to address my ine quiries to one Maj. Donthorne of Var- neck Hall, in the Lake country (where Mrs. Catherick had lived in serv ce pre- vious to her marriage). After taking his time to look up old papers, the Mujor was able to reply positively, in the firat place, that the late Sir Percival Giyde was unknown at Varneck Hall, and bad never set foot there: and, in the second place, that the late Mr. Philip Fairlie had been, in his younger days. the irti- mate and frequent guest of Maj. Don- thorne, and that he was at Varneck Hall for the shooting In August, Scp- tember and October, 186. He then ieft and when he next appeared at Varneck | PF 'l it was as a newly married man. Knowing now that Mr. Philip Fairile had been at Varneck Ha" in the autumn of 1826, and that Mrs. Cather’: haéd been living there in service at the same time, we knew also: (1) that Anne had been born in June, 1827; (2) that she had always strikingly resembled Laura Fair- lie, and (3) that Laura herself was the image of her father, who had been one of the notoriously handsome men of his time. Surely, the plain inference from these facts needs no pointing out. heen was own parents had married. My next step, therefore, to obi. ace Tess to the parish reg ster, and ascer- tain if the m ~r’.ge was duly recorded there. It was—but, by the indisputable evidence of a duplicate copy of the register, kept elsewhere by a former rector of the chureh, the entry was proven to be a forgery, and of compara- ‘ively recent date! The evening of my last visit to the chureh vestry room; where the records were kept, the old cex >on had met me as | was on my road to the railway station to leave Welmin’ am, and told me, in great distress, ‘hat on his way home had lost his keys. At this instant an alarm of fire ‘tled the village, and JI was horrified to see flames bursting from the ancient church edifice which we had quitted less than an hour before. Long before the local engine could arrive the sanctuary was doomed. The townspeople set up an excited cry that a man was imprisoned in the burning vesiry and nobody could unlock the pon- derous oaken door to let him out. Then it Hashed across my mind that | had fancied someone was lurking in the shadows as I had pored over the reg- ister »y candle light. I got half a dozen help me with a heavy wooden beam and we battered down the door. A charred body lay just inside. face down- he farmer lads to Did Mrs. Philip Fairlie, at Lim- meridge Hall, ever suspect whose child the little girl she dressed in white might be? Marian is posit!ve that she did not, but petted the poor little strunger in per- fect innocence of heart. It may even be doubted whether Philip Fuirlie him- self had been searer than his wife to any suspicion of the truth. Stranger coincidences than that battle probabil- ity every day. And then there is the Scripture denunciation which we have A Pa imnael all thought of in our time, with wonder and with awe: “The sing of the fathers shall ve visited on the eblidren.” S,» the ghostly figure which has haunt- ed my life goes down into the impen- etrable gloom: Like a shadow she first came to me, in the loneliness of the night. Like a shadow she passes away, in the loneliness of the dead. How I continued to fight our cause and finally succeeded in forcing a con- fession from Count Fosco as the last chance of publicly@establishing the cer- tainty of Laura's existence in the. ac- tual land ot the living is not for this page. It is a romance in itself—a ro- mance whose happy ending is in the fact that Laura is today my wife. It was Marian Haleombe, my brave sister, who brought us at last bilssfully together, even us it was she who had once parted us in the old days at Lim- meridge, for our own good. She calls our little son Walter. Hartright, Junior, “the neir of Limmeridge.” Count Fosco’s end was mysteriously dramatic, like his whole life. His dead body. disguised In the garb of a Frene’ artisan, was identified in the Paris Morgue, where his grand Napoleo 2 a head excited the admiring comment of - the flippant mob. He had been struck to the heart with a stiletto and thrown int» the Seine, with the letter “T’ cut into his left arm—signifying the Ital'an word traditore, or traitor, applied as a death warrant by one of the secret socletics to which he belonged. His tomb, tn_- the cemetery of Pere ia Chaise, is never without its fresh wreath, placed there by the Countess’ own hands. Fhe lives in retirement at Versailles and ha* pub- lished a biography of her deceased bhus- band, the concluding sentence of which 1s: “His life was one long assertion of the rights of the Aristocracy and the sacred priviieges of Order, and he diet a Martyr to hie cause.”

SAN CARLO OPERA ODEON FEB. /0. Begs ‘HE outlook for this week and next in St. Louis, dramatically and musically, is of pleasing promise. At the Olympic Theater tonight Anna Held begins a week’s engagement in “The Parisian Model,” the entertaining musi- ‘cal play in which she scored a brilliant New York success last season, At the Century, beginning this evening, the week’s offering will be Blanche Walsh in the Jacob Gordin drama, “The Kreutzer Sonata,” in which Mme. Kalich was seen at the Garrick about.a year ago. To the Olympic comes Mary _Mannering in “Glorious

Jane Noria, is Miss Josephine Lud- Betsy,” telling the romantic story of how Eliza, wig of St. Louis, who now returns to her native beth Patterson of Baltimore became the bride city after having won high honors as an operatic of a Bonaparte, a play which had a su last season engagement at the Garrick. The Cen/ tury’s attraction nexf week will be the musical comedy, “The Time, the Place ané the Girl,” seen here last season, but now of especial local interest owing to the fact that John EB. Young, the Delmar favorite of the past two summers, plays the lead- yg comedy role, Star in the European capitals and in New York. Others in the company are Mme. Nordica, Alice Nielsen, Constantino, the famous Spanish tenor, and Victor Maurel, the French baritone, who has not been heard here for some years. The San Carlo company has been brilliantly success- ful on tour and an excellent repertvire will be offered in St. Louis. en ee : eas ih Dg: 3 enema tie "NEE Me jo Re REE BE ge cS ay ie Be
