"That Man Killed Your Father” Dinned Constantly Into the Ears of Sons _ From Babyhood to Time When They Are Old Enough to Shoot.

ORATOR estos ag thea sapere - - Net That Life Is Cheap. While Kentucky has always been ‘known as a section where human lif: _f™ held cheaply, there are few who know exactly the conditions that exist there and what provokes the bloodshed that has stained the fair name of the country. A killing in Ken- is seldom a “murder,” in the _Benee of the term. It is’ an tion of the Mosaic law. If a ¥ - man despoils: home, tarnishes the repu- fon of a daughter, sister, mother or relative he has taken away what never réplace and It is the un- tten law that he myst pay for it with | Mife, “for such scoundrels are. net | to live and are @& menace to | community, for what. they have E Gone they may. be tempted to do ‘days. of Daniel eta, Simon , the Boyles, Hardins, Larues, and other intrepid hunters and players, womanhood was placed cle and it has always remain- gon to hold he~ honor dear and Fe ry his attention to the fact that what rould not have some other man say iemr ones, he must not say to S dear Ones of others.

may be dressed or however plain may be her features. He keeps before his eyes always that siie is a woman and that she should be protected by the sterner sex. As an illustration of the idea, a young girl in an. interior Kentucky town may walk into her home and tell her brother that a ruffian!y neighbor, somewhat under the influence of liquor or inspired by passion, his insulted her. “All right, sis,”’ responds the brother. And then he takes down the long rifle from the hooks behind the door, pushes in a bunch of cartridges and leaves the house. The next day the home paper contains the brief announcement that ‘The funeral of the late Mr. So and So will take place from the Union Chapel next Sunday forenoon. The Coroner's jury foand that Mr. What’s-his-name was perfectly justified in killing him and the members of the family of the deceased bear no malice.” A man runs away with the wife of another down in Kentucky. The victim does not rush into the courts and sue for alienation of affections, as is the case in more peaceable states. No, he simply smiles a cold, hard smile, gets the old greasy cartridge belt from the, cupboard, takes down the rifle and says, ‘‘Come on, Tige,’’ to the dog. He soons finds the trail of the fugitives and keeps it day after day till he comes on the guilty couple. “Howdy,” he says to the man, all the time keeping the muzzle of the gun pointed at the man’s heart. ‘‘Any word you'd like ter send home ter ther folks?’’ After the preliminaries § are over the avenger says, coldly, ‘‘Neigh- bo>, you all might pray some ef you all wants to.’’ A few minutes pass, then there is a sharp flash and the leaden messenger finds its way to the heart of the home despoller. The avenger does not kill the woman. He treats her very respectful in every way. Returning with the woman to town, he takes her to the home of her father, brother or any other relatives she may have and says simply, “‘Here’s your girl.’’ Then he goes back: to biz home and the matter is never again referred to. . But if by some chance the husband may have made a mistake and the wife is really innocent there is another phase to the case. at the time. If such should be the case the woman tells the little one her side of the story. She tells it as only a Kentucky woman can tell it, for Ken- tuckians are noted for the intensity of their descriptions, and every word grinds itself deep into the heart of the hearer. “He ruined me, boy, lied on me an’ he ruined my life. Do you all hear, boy? He ruined my life.”’ ‘Yes, I hear,’’ says the boy. Then that boy never speaks to the man as the years go by. When a boy is § years old he is considered to have.reach- ed an ase at which he may be trusted to handle a rifie.

When a boy can make a bull’s*eye once in ten shots at that age he is thought .to be worthy of admiration from his relatives. The marked man hears’ the sharp crack of the boy’s rifle day after day and he knows the lad is only learning to be an expert so he may kill someone and he knows ‘that that someone is himself. But .@ecording to ‘the Ken-

tucky ethics the declaration of war must come from the party who thinks himself aggrieved. Therefore, the marked man goes on and on, not dar- ing to send the challenge for fear the neighbors will hang him. Then cne day the marked man goes to the Unton Chapel services at the little church where all denominations meet and wor- ship according to the teachings of the preacher or priest who may happen to be in the neighborhood at the time. The Challenge Given. The boy. with a stern look on =§his face, walks up to the marked man and says pointedly:

“This is Sunday. I'll be around Wednesday and see you, ef you don't } keer. Or will it suit you better to pu: } it off tell after plantin’?’’ The Challenge has come, and in a short time it has become public prop- erty. Everybody knows that a woman's champion has made known that he will avenge’ the wrongs of his relative, and that boy is no longer a boy in their eyes. He is respected by all.. He is going to be a murderer in the eyes of the outside world, but in their eyes he will be a

wy hero, even though he falls in the con- t. The marked man goes home. If he its wise he sets his affairs in order and gets ready for the grave. He kisses his wife good night and kisses her in the morning. He treats her as he may havef never treated er before. He is all’ kindness to ‘is relatives. ‘Of course, this is if he Intends to stay at home. When he gets his notice that the aveng- er will be around to see him on Wednes- day he knows that he will not be molegt.- ed in the interim. If he so decides,. he may sell off his. belongings and leave the State. Then his life is safe, for the avenger will not follow him. One case especially: occurs to the writer, who, by the way, was born in the feudai district and worked as a re- porter on many of the most famous cases. A man had been engaged to be} ““‘ed to a ~rl he had. wronged, but at the last moment he married another. The jilted girl had a son soon after, and the y grew up in the neighborh The mother watched over him and saw that he had one of the best rifles in the county. When he began to win prizes at turkey shootings she was proud of his marksmanship. On one occasion the father, he who had mar- ried another, was also proud of the boy and he remarked that he inherited } his skill from his father. “Did you know my father?” asked the boy innocently. “Well, I should say I dein to,”” the man, Ww had been drinking, said “Folks say I’m the man.” Nobody laughed in the crowd that stood about. They sav the boy’s face turn pale and they saw the steely glit- ter creép into his eyes.

I begged with him to save my honor just as you are now begging for his miserable life, and he spurned me. In a public place he boasted of my shame to my son only yesterday.

In a recent re tives Dr. Wiley of the : makes statements which must shake the con- fidence of the people in law or in its ministers. Writing as though no pure food law had ever been passed and as though the reforms sup- posed to have been effected by it had never been accomplished, he declares tha: the use of pre- servatives in food stuffs is undermining public health and, more than anything else, accoulits for the great increase of kidney troubles. - Qne of the abuses which the pure food law was designed to remove was the “embalming” of food. Of all the evils complained of none was more real and offensive than this. There was adultera- tion in plenty and substitution was widely prac- ticed, but chemical analysis established the fact in most cases that the substances employed were not injurious. As to the use of preservatives, however, the known facts and the inevitable conclusions were widely different. These chemicals are active poi- sons and it is easily possible by the free consump- tion of food products thus treated to take them into the system in quantities that are certain to be harmful. ! The pure food law, which has been in-forve for almost two years, contains a clause plainly pro- hibiting the use in food of “any added poisonous or deleterious matter injurious to health,” and the penalty for violation of this provision, as of most of the others, is ane or imprisonment or both. If there has been a single important prosecution under the pure food law the fact is not now re- called. It took a prodigious scandal, an injurious assault upon many great industries and a vast amount of labor in and out of Congress to perfect the legislation now in force. What was the use— if what Dr. Wiley now says be true? It is to be feared that in our multitudinous efforts to achieve reform we are developing crusa- ders rather than administrators. Nothing is much easier than denunciation. Nothing is much harder than to bring important laws and powerful viola- tors-thereof face to face. If the Government is in possession of evidence that, in spite of all the agitation and legislation which have been had on the subject of pure food, the people are still dying of slow poisons used either to preserve or to improve ,the appearance of canned goods, it need. not trouble Congress with the matter. It should go to the courts. Con- gress has spoken. It is not likely to do more un- til. some effort shall have been made to enforce its awill. Lawmaking can have but one object and that If our agitators have no keep is law enforcement. other purpose than agitation and must themselves constantly in the public eye by means ot sensational assertions, the idea of real reform may as well be abandoned. Co-ordinating means to ends, securing evidence that will stand legal tests, gaining indictments and pursuing them steadily to convictions is not a spectacular work, but by such methods only are we to gather the fruits of past labors. The place for Dr. Wiley and his chemists is in the witness box of a Federal Court. Somebody in Congress ought to have the courage to tell them 80. ==. rw THE NEW CHARTER MOVEMENT, It is a long road and a rough road to charter revision for any great city, and there is reason to believe that in the case of. St. Louis it will be something worse than that. . The movement has taken shape in the Munici- pal Assembly and in the course of a year or two, if all goes well, we may hope to have in hand or in sight a concrete proposition. In the mean- time, while furthering every well-considered pre- liminary, the people should give the problem in- creasing attention. There will be no lack of plans and theories; the difficulty will be to get rid of most of them and confine the discussion to first principles. One question shouldbe settled early, and that is whether the town is to be a self-governing entity or, as now, is to rule itself in some things ard be'ruled by outsiders in many things. If there is to be a continued division of authority between the State and the municipality it is hardly worth while to talk about a new char- ter, for amendment wilf answer every purpose. Divided authority never yet produced the best possible results either ih private or in public life. In a city government it is most emphat- ically cut of place. If the State is to govern the town it should take full responsibility. If the town is to govern itself its,agents and in- strumentalities should have their powers’ so clearly defined that there n«ver will be any ques- tion as to their accountability. One objection to interference by the State in the affairs of a city lies in the fact that respon- sibility is remote. Exclusive home rule corrects this evil in theory, but not always in practice. An electorate debauched or hide-bound in par- tyism may condone faults that are well nigh unbearable. Where

self-government is conceded, it is probable that the wisest course is tc eoncentrate power and accountability upon the Mayor, but in such a case i* is vitally im- portant that care be exercised to prevent him from becoming the master of the City Council. A too-powerful Mayor “is likely to become a legislator as well as an executive, thus shifting upon others responsibilities which he does not care to assume.

It would be highly creditable to St. Louis if the work could be done here. Suc- cess in that line would bring world-wide distinc- tion and imitators without number. ii A Ae rere THE ARMED CITIZEN. Maplewood and Greenwood by their shotgun patrol prove that crime cannot go far against the inherent force of a law-abiding community, once it is roused to self-protection. When the com- munity bristles, crime must cease forthwith. Slumbering beneath the peace of every well- ordered town, village and hamlet in the country is the same power capable of being called to action in a moment—demonstrating the full power of which a part, but only a part, is delegated to and exercised by the law’s officers in ordinary times. When the extiasedinkey case calls for it every citizen becomes an officer of the law, and the law itself expressly provides for extreme: exigen- ‘ies. In fact, the citizen is the law. Peaceable citizenship is the repository and the embodiment as well as the result, development and highest illustration of law. This does not mean that a citizen may take the law wholly into his own hands in any ‘case, for to that extent he wrongfully takes it out of the hands of the community. It is only when he represents the common authority that he is pow- erful. _The right to protect one’s property with neces-

saying and runs hand in hand with the law of self-protection of the person. The shotgun patrol of Maplewood and Greenwood has been no more than a common assertion of the most ancient and venerable rights we enjoy, and by this effect- ive means the citizens do well to demonstrate generally that there is a point beyond which marauders cannot go. the armed citizen with right on his side, whether singly or acting with his neighbors, there would be fewer criminals with the hardihood to assume the odds of attempts. Tt The fact, in itself, that so few forcible attempts] ; at crime succeed contrasted with the failures, even when the object is a single household or a single unsuspecting individual, should have exer- cised ‘and doubtless does exercise a deterrent inr. fluence. It will be greater as the truth is im- pressed that success comes to the criminal only by rare chance undér the best conditions that he may select. In the criminal’s slang “‘he is up against it” at every turn and he cannot go far in any event. The hand of society is against him. The odds are a million to one. S) and vagabonds might profitably substitute: now and then for hazy social theories in their ser- mons. —T = -— oa VALENTINES FOR THE VULGAR. Comic¢e ~alentines were designed for people who know how to take a coarse znd brutal joke. Their authors evidently forgot that a large proportion of the population never acquired this accomplish- ment. With the improvement in color printing, comic valentines appear to have increased in vulgarity. It may be also that there are so many more varie- ties now than formerly that it is easier to select one that has some coarse application to the per- son who is to receive it. At any rate, murders, fights and suicides, now often ascribed to comic valentines, were rarely heard of years ago-when thes? missives were so rude and so limited in design that they caused nothing more violent than a sneer or a smile. If the gentle art of caricature by wholesale has been so highly developed that for one or two cents one may buy a lampoon cruelly fitting al- most any individual in private life, it is probable that the authorities should take cognizance of the matter. The serding of cemic valentines is a cowardly business at best. If the smian- who indulge in the practice could all be detected and mildly cas- tigated no great harm would be done. They are not worth killing, and certainly no one should commit suicide on-acecount of them.

=~ Vw Owe CHICAGO'S EXCLUSIVE COACHMEN. Stars and garters, what is this we hear from Chicago! The coachmen of the very rich and very elect have organized themselves into an ex- clusive society and they will snub the common or garden coachmen who “do not belong.” Yet this was to have been expected. In an era and under a system of snobbery it is the lower order invariably that outdoes the upper. It will be remembered that the servant of Gil Blas out- shone his master for ‘uss and :lummery, while in a later day Stripes and Tummus, the coachman and coachman’'s helper, gave themselves more airs than all the other snobs in the whole snobbium gatherum of Mr. Thackeray. Still more recently in America it was the chef of the Waldorf-Asto- ria who maintained the most stylish valet in all this democratic domain. Forsooti:, it is the subordinates themselves who support‘and maintain the system. Snobbishness, as Horace said of Death, with equal force beats at poor men’s doors and kicks at the gates of em- perors. - But it is the flunkeys who make a court what it is, It is the admiration and emulation of the lower orders that enthrone and make regal the snobbishness of thé upper.

TOLSTO! IGNORES OFFER OF GHURGH Aged Novelist, Excommunicated, Holds He Is Better Than Directors.

ST. PETERSBURG, Feb. 15.—Count Leo Tolstoi, the Russian novelist and. philopher, has been in- formed that the holy synod is considering the ques- tion of readmitting him into the church of Russia. He replies that it is of little importance to him whether he is in or out of the church. He insists that ‘the members of the holy synod are not Chris- tians and their actions in Christian affairs can therefore be of no importance. The holy synod took up the question of the re- admittance of Tolsto! into the Greek Catholic church without action on the part :f the aged writ- er. A great many of the members of the synod con- tended that Tolstoi should be taken back into the church, as he is a great and good man and. has reached that age where his departure from this life may take place any day. The more conservative members of the synod, however, insist that it would be wrong to take Tol- stoi back into the church without exacting a promise from him that he would obey the tenents of the church and never criticise its heads and leaders. Friends of Tolstoi say that he does not care enough for the church to do that and that such. a promise would never be exacted from him, as he considers himself more of a Christian than any member of the holy synod. te CZAR ORDERS ALL RACES GIVEN SAME TREATMENT ODESSA, Feb. 15.—The Czar, On receiving the

TEN YEARS IN PRISON FOR STEALING PICTURE

FRIIZS VISIT TU PARIS ‘““Captivated’’ Shown EHTEL

Young Prince by the Courtesy Him.

PARIS, Feb. 15.—The visit of Prince Eitel Fred- erick of Germany to Paris as he was returning to Berlin from Lisbon is of the greatest importance as proving Emperor William’s desire to conciliate France. The Emperor’s second son is the first mem- ber of the German Imperial family to enter this capital since some of them rode into it at the head of their victorious army. But in these piping times of peace the young Prince’s presence here may pave the way to something of infiniteiy more consequence. For, it is well known, Entperor William cherishes the hope that he may yet visit Paris and that her people will cheer him in her streets, Emperor William could not have sent a worthier representative to break’ the fast-dissolving ice of hos- tility. Prince Eitel, in his twenty-fifth year, is tall, strong, good looking, with blue eyes and a com- plexion almost too blond. His manner is simple, frank, cordial. He speaks French with difficulty and with a strong German accent, but he understands it perfectly. Probably he felt the joy which inspires any young man on his first visit to Paris. But County Clary, one of the best shots in France, and one of the few who were invited to meet the Prince here, insists that Napoleon’s tomb, in the Hotel des Invalides, attracted the young Hohenzol- lern infinitely more than anything else in Paris, The Prince could not repress unaffected signs of deep emotion when he first beheld the porphyry block which incloses the remains of him who won at Aus-§ terlitz. Whatever was the greatest attraction, the Prince tried hard to persuade his father to let him prolong his stay here. He said he hoped to return soon, for he was captivated by tlre perfect courtesy he re- ceived from all he met.

One of them was dressed in the untform of a provincial governor, and the other two had disguised themselves as military officers. When they appear- ed the soldiers on duty at the door of the palace sprang to attention and saluted, and similar honors were paid to them on their departure. Half an hour later the Archbishop and his ser- vants were discovered gagged and lound and in a state of exbaustion. It was found that a sum of 7500 and valuables worth $15,000 had been: stolen. —— anime! THE “DIVINE SARAH”’ WILL NOT GROW OLD PARIS.

LAW'S DELAY IRKS MRS, “HART” MKEE Regrets :She Did Not Bring Her Divoree Suit in America.

PARIS, Feb. 15.—Pending the trial of her action for divorce, Mrs. ‘“‘Hart’ McKee has gone to the South of France, accompanied by members of her family. Her departure was made advisable by the poor health of her mother, Mrs. Baxter of Nashville, Tenn. Besides, Mrs.. McKee is almost worn out by wor- rying over the interminable delays of the French law. Foreigners invariably find proceedings in the French courts most unsatisfactory. Usually only the law. yers gain any advantage. So Mrs. McKee is inclined to regret that she did not return to America and 8e- cure a domicile there, for she believes Such a course would have attained her purpose quicker. It is re- ported, too, that she has difficulty in getting sSatis- factory evidence about affairs which were considered matters of public notoriety. Mr. McKee Is as de- termined as ever to contest the suit to the end. Mrs. J. Clinch Smith has given the last of a series of dinners and, with her mother, Mrs. Barnes of Chicago, is going to the Riviera. Mr. Smith, Mrs, Stanford White’s brother, has returned here after testifying at Harry K. Thaw's trial.

Munkacsy, widow of the great Hungarian artist, has returned to Paris and in all probability will visit America soon. She would like to take some of her husband's later works to the United States, but fears it will not be feasible under the restric- tions imposed by the American customs laws. Amer. icans who meet her are to be envied.

The Gov- ernment’s action is due largely to the insistence of Mme. Zola, who has devoted herself to her hus- band’s memory and to charitable works since the writer’s death. This apotheosis of Zola bas encoun- tered the most. bitter opposition. Some of it came from those who make the same yates to his iit. erary work as did the Academy, which refused him entrance. But the principal opposition came because ef his action in the Dreyfus affair. Zola's famous letter, “1 accuse,’ forced a full in- vestigation into the.whole case and indirectly brought Clemenceau into power.

DENIES HE IS PLUNGER Isaac Schoen Picks Up “Pin Money” for European Trips. dGsaac A. Schoen, known on the floor of the Merchants’ Exchange as ‘‘Ikey’’ Schoen is piliig up profits so fast in his bear raid on the wheat market that his fellow-members are asking them- selves whether he sits up nights to count his money or sends it to the bank on stake wagons. It is a matter of record that Mr. Schoen’s profits at the three and three- quarters hours session of the Exchange last Friday were $60,000. . All he had to do was stand on the top side of the pit and the right side of the market. Everybody thought he was wrong, but he wasn't. Modest About Triumphs, Mr. Schoen is modest. He says that he hasn’t done anything wonderful. It was merely his good luck that the $300 which he spent for transportation on & summer trip to Europe should return like bread on the waters and make him a small fortune. Mr. Schoen emphatically denies that he is a “plunger.” He says if he be- Heved his trading in the wheat market might cause the impression that he was ®@ speculator he would stay away from the Merchants’.

KANSAS CITY, Mo., Feb. 15.—Judge George J. Dodd of the Jackson County Court threatens to appeal to a higher tribunal and find by what authority the other two members of the court can or- der him to “shut up.’’ He declares that he has wearied of being “gagged” and “sit down on.’’ The court, which has the handling of the funds of the largest county in the State in population, is divided, two to one. Judge Dodd is the one and Judge J. M. Patterson and Judge C. E. Moss are the ‘“‘majority.” Judge Dodd calls them the ‘“‘Czars.’’ All are Republicans and to Judge Dodd belong the distinction of being the first of that political faith to represent the eastern district of the county in 4 years. But the question with him is whether he represents. He declares that he is being made a “‘filler’’ and the butt for “the shorter and ugiler word.’’ He believes the other two judges are in a conspiracy against him. He voices this belief frequently and without hesitation. In support of his contention. he points to the fact that the other two judges, put through a rulé that no motion cold go On the records unless it had a’‘second; Nei- ther of the other judges will second one of Dodd’s motions. He cannot get on the records. Somctimes when Judge Dodd gets too emphatic Judge Moss tells him in uldiplomatic language to make less noise. Then Judge Moss is apt to fling himself from the bench and hie himself away to his farm, there to sulk until the next meeting of the Court. Recently Judge Dodd felt called up- on to. refer to Judge Patterson as “ezar.” Judge Patterson retorted hy questioning Judge Dodd's’ veracity. In doing so he did not make use of any Latin derivatives. This was the ‘signal for another of Judge Dodd's flights to the farm. “I don’t care where you go,” said Judge Patterson to him on one occa- sion. “I don't care if you never come back. I hope you never come back.” On another occasion Judge Moss thrust a long finger to within close proximity to his colleague’s nose and remarked with some feeling: “You wait until I finish speaking before you break in. You do your own talking and I'll do mine. I know you can talk enough for the whole Court and more too, but you wait till I finish.” With such amenities does the Hon- orable County Court of Jackson Coun- ty transact business. ‘ an $10,000 1 BUILD DIRIGIB 7 Local Concern Among Ten Bidders in Government Bal- loon Competition. TEST FLIGHT PLANNED Trial at Ft. Myer, Va., Will Aid Signal Bureau in Its Decision. —_—— ee WASHINGTON, Feb. 15.—Another ef- fort was made today at the signal of- fice to obtain satisfactory bids for the construction of a dirigible ballcon. Pro- posals, including price and time for construction, were opened in Gen. Al- len’s office. Ten bids were received. All the pro- posals will be submitted to a board for examination and report. The following is a list of the bids: Harry B. Schiller, Philadelphia, $33,- 500, 180 days; Soren C. Rockmen, Phila- delphia, $25,000, 180 days; Raymond An- glemire, Chicago, no price stated, 90 days; Bumbaugh & Heimann, St. Louis, $10,000, 250 days; Louis Luppetts, Paris, $20,000, 90 days; Carl E. Myers, Frank- fort, N. Y., $11,994, 120 days; William Reiferscheid & Co., Streator, Ill, $8000, 150 days; Charles Ellis, Toledo, O., $10,- 000; no time stated; Thomas S. Baldwin, New York, $6750, 150 days; Peter Coop- er Hewitt, New York, $20,000, 200 days. The specifications cover the construc- tion of a dirigible balloon to carry a combined weight of 350 pounds and at least 100 pounds of ballast. It is to be designed to have a speed of 20 miles an hour in still weather. The bidders were required to submit to a proposal for cost depending upon the speed attained during the trial flight, down to 16 miles or up to 24 miles. There is to be a trial endurance flight of two hours, during which the airship is to travel continuously at an average speed of 70 per cent of that, which the balloon accomplishes during the trial flight for speed. The trial flight will be to Fort Myer, Va. A Most Phenomenal Discovery. Two hundred sixty acres of land, with limestone 99.21 per cent pure and excel- lent shale to make a high-grade Port- land cement, thoroughly tested by core- drilling, also sand and gravel tested to a depth of # feet on the same property, owned in fee. ¢ The Meramec Portland” Cement and Material Co. propose to build a large fireproof Portland cement mill of 3000 bagrels daily capacity on the property. The directorate of the company is cohposed of the following well-known business men and contractors: J. A. Daly, general contractor and brick manufacturer, Nevada, Mo. Frank P. Boyd, general superintend- ent. St. Louis Plate Glass Co., Valley Park, Mo. August Heman, president Heman Con- struction Co. and Trinidad Asphalt Mfg. Co., director State Trust Co., St. Louis, Mo, Fr. W. Terpenning, secretary, treasurer and general manager Trinidad Asphalt Manufacturing Co., St. Louis, Mo.

Vickroy, vice-president Union Réfrigerator Transit Co., St. Louis, Mo. The preferred stock \bears 7 per cent cumulative dividends, which should be earned twice over by the sand and gravel plants, and each share of pre- ferred stock carries a share of common stock which should earn at least 4 per cent dividends from the operation of the cement mill. Full information regarding this profit- able investment can be had from A, C.

} OPERATORS New Law Regulating Work’ | of Telegraphers. TT » MEN SCARCE, THEY SAY Nine Hours at Night, Thirteen hy Day and Night, the Limit. WASHINGTON, Feb. 15.—The Inter- state Commerce Commission will begin I’eb. 27 hearings on four applications by oak railroads for postponement of the en- = forcement of the law forbidding the _ foads to require telegraph operators to remain on duty more than nine hours consecutively. The law provides that it shall become effective March 4. Applications for delay have been filed by the Burlington, the Frisco, the South- ern the Atlantic Coast railroads. The law has this winter been the sub- : ject of much Protest by the railroads of the country. The railroad managers say ‘they ‘cannot get enough telegraph- ers to operate their trains if no man is allowed to work more than nine hours in a night and day office, or 13 hours in a day office. Two weeks ago cfficials of Western Toads came to Washington and had a conference with the President, appeal- ing to him to have the law modified. e sent the railroad men to the Inter- state Commerce Commission, which heard their arguments.

THOWE REVIVES NIEDRINGHAUS UND CHARGES Ammunition . Used in Kerens? Fight to Help in Chair- man’s Defense. SAYS CAMPBELL GAVE Mentions Name of Ed Butler in Connection With Con- cealed Gifts. Cc ounter charges that Thomas hk, Nied- ringhaus, as ehairmen of the Republican State Committee, received many large campaign contributions from corpora- tions and indiv,duals which was spent, to suit himself in the 1904 campaign, will be made by Jeptha L. Howe, chairman of the Republican City Committee, when he is placed on trial before tine State Committee for disloyalty. Some of these charges were made during the Niedring- haus-Kerens senatorial’contest. Howe’s trial before a sub-committee of the State Committee is set for Feb. 25, Next day he will be tried before the State Committee, and it is expected that Niedringhaus will control enough votes to oust him. Howe will then appeal to the State Convention, which meets the following day. It-is probable that he will make a savage attack on Niedring- ren on the floor of the State Conven- on It has been intimated that large con- tributions to the Missouri campaign have been made by corporations since the 1904 campaign, and these facts may come out during the progress of the Howe trial. What! Jim Campbell, Too? “I intend to attack the campaign methods of Mr. WNiéedringhaus,”’ said Howe. “I will show that the Adolphus Busch contribution was not the only one that was covered up in his sworn state- I know. that one of the contribu- tors to the Republican campaign fund was James Camfbell, the broker, who has long, long been the political friend of Edward Butler. I khow, too, that a large sum of money was sent by the Republican State Committee to the But- ler Democrats to bring out votes for Walbridge. ‘‘Not only do TI propose_to attack Nied- ringhaus along the lines, but I will show that up to the time I refused to support him for three offices—chairman of the State Committee, national com- mitteeman and United States Senator— he always worked with me “Subsequent to all the acts Niedring- haus charges me with, he declared I was the best chairman the City Commit- tee ever had. I don’t think it was more than three months ago that Mr. Nfed- eRe told other members of the City Committee that I was an excellent chairman. “When he found out that: I would not support him for everything in sight in the Republican party, he turned against me, and now he wants to throw me out: Will he know that he has been in.a fight hefore he finishes the job?

He started her at once to using Can- cerol, which she was able to apply her- self at home.

Mrs. Chas. Rose, 1122 McCulloch street, Baltimore, Md., was a great suf- ferer from kidney disease for five years. She was treated by several phy- sicians, but found no relief until she took Warner’s Safe Cure, which in a short time made her a well and happy woman, In a recent letter, Mrs. Rose wrote: “I heve suffered for nearly five years from a complication of diseases, my kidneys being involved. I reeeived treatment from man prominent Spothilens of Baltimore, who, a sn they diagnosed my case, gave me no eT. “When I had taken Warner's Safe Cure about a month I felt like a new woman. It acted on my liver. Backache and headacne, from which I suffered, both have gone. ‘Warner's Safe Cure certainly has put me on my feet. I believe 1 would have died had I not teken it. I will always praise Warner's Safe Crre that others may know of it and save their lives.’ When the kidneys are diseased the uric acid is not carried off, and this causes Gout, Lumbago, Rheumatism of the Joints, Rheumatism of the Muscles, Rheumatism of the Heart, Rheumatism everywhere, Warner’s Safe Cure drives out the urie acid. In kidney disease the bowels are often constipated and the liver torpid. Warner’s Safe Pills uickly relieve this condition, and no ill after-effect is e ienced.

The challenge was sent by the Rev. C. J. Hall, a prohibition’ leader of Los Anegeles. “It is not likely that. any one of the liquor men will consent to debate with Mr. Hall,” said Mr. Busch. “Few of us older men have the training or edu- cation to meet public speakers in de- bate.

Blanche ’ Bates in “The Girl ot the Golden West,”’ Frances Starr in “The Rose of the _ Rancho, ’ Mrs. Fiske in “‘Rosmersholm,’’ Frank Keenan and Charlotte Walker ~ in “The Warrens of Virginia’’—these are all likely to reach the Garrick before ! i the season's ending.” And it may be, too, that David Warfield will come in “A ' Grand Army Man,” although this is more doubtful.

The play has a simple plot. A London bachelor of middle age has consented to make w mock marriage with a beautiful, impulsive and innocent-minded young girl, his ward, to get her out of a di- lemma and further her final marriage with a young man she imagines she loves. A honeymoon visit to Switzerland ensues and humerous episodes occur, springing out of the anomalous situation of the principals, who are to the public mated, but not in reality married. Many humorous complications, untinged by suggestiveness or immoral atmosphere, arise and the make-believe husband and wife really become seriously attached: to each other, but Gerald Eversleigh, en- acted by Mr. Drew, becomes embroiled with the girl's parents, who do not un- derstand the situation.

Their only inheritance was a small sum of money, a poor old house and an ap- parently worthless mining claim. Still, with the aid of a lovable old Irish serv- ant, Maggie.

He comes to her to tell her that he has come across an abandoned claim in which he has discovered a rich vein. It adjoins a claim owned by Mrs. Bix, an Mastern woman, who has become dis- gusted with her nonsuccess and is anx- ious to sell out and return East. Mrs. Bix gives a dinner party in honor of a capitalist, Lorimer Trenholm, hoping through good fellowship receive a favorable offer for her mine. Clem over- hears Steve's recital of his find and also hears that Trenholm is going to make Mrs. Bix an offer that evening at the dinner. Accordingly, the boy Berresford and the latter goes to Mrs. Bix and buys her claim, while she is ignorant of its real value.

Hope for Settlement of Land Question and Founding of University.

Hee BY J. M. TUONY, _- (Special Correspondence of the Sun- 5 day Post-Dispatch.) « LONDON, Feb. 6.—Parliament opened, politics once more dominates the coun- ' try. The Government is on the thres- ,hold of ite most critical session, and John E. Redmond, standing at the head of. @ once more completely united Irish ‘party, is the man of the hour. I called to have a talk with Mr. Red- ‘mond on the political situation, which at the present moment is so full of in- * terest and speculation. _| What will be the effect,” I asked, “of the unity of the Irish party which you have recently brought about?’ He replied: ‘“‘The return of able men ike Mr. Healy and Mr. O’Brien, will, of course, be of great service. Then, a@part from their individual qualities, the aspect of a completely united Irish party is already making an impression On English public opinion. In Ireland the people are determined to permit no division in the national ranks, for they fully realize that a united party in the English House of Commons, backed by @ united Irish nation outside, must in the end prove irresistible. “Of course Englishmen are constantly talking of Irish disunion, but they for- get the disunion among themselves. How many parties and subdivisions of parties are there in England now? “There is another fact which they also fofget—that despite the differences which have arisen among Irish nation- alists since the Parnell crisis, home rule .- has held its ground. We stand as we stood before the crists.”’ “What do you think are the home - Yule prospects in England at the pres- _ ent moment?’ I askea. | Bitterness Has Gone.’ “I think that the bitterness against home rule which existed 20 years ago has disappeared,’ Mr. Redmond an- swered. “I believé tt will be impossible to inflame the EngHsh mind against - home rule now as it was then. Re- | member that a great cry was made 3! _ against homé rule 20 years ago because | people said that the landlords would be _* plundered.

Another cry which was raised was that an Irish Parliament would . establish and endow a Catholic univer- 'gity. That cry is no longer available, ) éither, because Unionist leaders are | practically pledged to a university for ' Catholics. In fact, the Unionists them- selves have in a sense been forced to throw down their own lines of defenses.”’ Must Be LAberal’s Plank. “But,"’ I queried, “are the English enthusiastic about home rule?’ “No,” Mr. Redmond replied, “but I think their condition in relation to the ' gubject may be described as quiescent; > but at the next general election home ' rule must be a plank in the Liberal ‘ . In fact, the home rule reco- / Jution of which I have given notice will, - #f supported by the Government, pledge _ it to put home rule in the forefront ' of its program at the general election, * and I have every hope that the resolu- thon will be carried.” _ “Will home rule be the main plank?” J asked. The Irish leader replied: “A main _ plank, I should prefer to say. The House ‘of Lords will no doubt be also a main ‘plank, for the feeling is very strong that nothing can be done until it is re- - formed. Then certainly home rule must put before the constituencies. If the Tiieens win at the genera! election it will certainly mean that they will take up home rule as well as the Lords.” .- .

eee land down which the classes have or imagine they have. There is a great deal in common between those who repre- sent labor in this country and the Irish people. There is no reason why the Labor party and the Irish party should not stand shoulder to shoulder. We shall help them in their efforts to get fair play in their own country, and they will help us to win back the con- stitutional rights of which we were in- famously deprived in 1800.’ ‘But is there not danger that you and the Labor party will come into coi- lision over the education question—tihe university bill, for instance?’ Labor Party Friendly. “TI do not think so. The Labor party understands our case. Every one in Ireland wants denominational educa- tion. It is not a question of Catholics, Protestants, Episcopalians and Presby- terians. We all want denominational education. England has tried to force a mixed system on us and she has failed. I think the Labor party quite appreciates our position and fully rec- ognize that we have a right to order things in our own house.”’ “But what about the English educa- tion question? You and the Labor par- ty take opposite sides; may not your division on this question lead to a di- vision on the home rule question?’ *“T do not think so. I admit that there is a difference between the Irish educa- tion and the English education ques- tion. The demand of the Irish Cath- olics for education, like the demand practically for everything, is a national one. Education in freland has to be decided in accordance with the views of the Irish people. We are not to be outvoted on a purely Irish question by Englishmen and Scotchmen.”’ “The English educational question is an English question, yet you vote on “Yes, but it Is not our fault that we are voting on it. Englishmen force us to attend their Parliament. While we are there (very much against our will, remember) we must vote according to our conscience. But Englishmen have the remedy in their own hands. Let them restore the constitutional rights of which they have robbed us. Let them allow us to attend to the affairs of our country alone, in our own Parliament, established on our own soil, and then they can deal with their own qugstions in their own way, without any interfer- ence whatever from us.°’ Reduced Majority Predicted. ‘‘Well, Mr. Redmond, to return to the next general election, you think that the Liberals will come back with a re- duced majority?” ‘*Yes.”’ ‘‘What then?” “Well, I take it that they will deal with the question of the House of Lords at once, and having won at the polls on that question I do not suppose that the House of Lords will be able to hold out against the ministerial measure of reform. No doubt in the event of fric- tion between the two houses over the question the English sovereign will in- tervene and insist on a settlement.’”’ “What kind of a settlement do you think will be made?’’ “A limited veto on the lords would no doubt be insisted on, rinally agreed to. They cannot be allowed to go on for- ever stopping everything.” “Well, the House of Lords question “I have no doubt that home rule wou!d be at once introduced, and with the power of the lords curbed it would soon be passed. Remember that but for the lords an Irish parliament could be es- Kokomo Woman Gives Fortune To Help Women Who Suffer. In the past few years Mrs. Cora B. Miller has spent $125,000.00 in giving medical treat- ment to afflicted women. Sometime ago it was announced in these cclumns that she would send free treat. ment to every woman who suffers from female diseases or piles. More than a million women have accepted this generous offer, and as Mrs. Miller is still receiving requests from thousands of women from all parts of the world, who have not yet used the remedy, she has de- cided to continue the offer for awhile longer, at lerst.

These meas- ures were the franchise act of 1793, the Catholic relief act of 1829 and the local Government act of 1898. We have only to get the Tories into a corner and we shall wring home rule from them. And, of course, I need scarcely say that whatever measure a Tories government passes through the Commons, the lords will accept without demur. While Eng- lish parties are fighting among them- selves we stand by, united, ready to seize every opportunity which the con- fusion and turmoil of English politics may afford to re-establish the constitu- tional rights of our country.’’ “Then, Mr. Redmond, you seem to think that whatever maybe the up- shot of the general election, whether Tories win or Liberals win, the chances of home rule will be increased?’ “Now, with reference to the imme- diate future—the present session, what do you think will happen?’ “Well, of course, there will be a uni- versity bill and a land bDill.’’ “What do you think are the prospects of their being carried?’ University Plans. “Well, I cannot conceive how the uni- versity bill can be defeated. The Union- ists are practically pledged on the mat- ter. not a Catholic university by name. Of course, a national university in Ire- land must be a Catholic university in at- mosphere as a national university in Engiand would be. a protestant uni- versity and a national university in Scotland would be a Presbyterian uni- versity. We think there ougnt to be a university in Belfast, but it should have no religious test any more tha the national university for which we ask. It will doubtless be frequented by some Catholics, but the great majority would be Presbyterians, for Belfast is a Pres- byterian center. The university which I trust the government will establish in ‘Dublin will be the national uni- versity of Ireland. It will have no re- ligious test. There will, I trust, be Protestants as Well as Catholics on the Senate; laymen as well as ecclesiastics. It will be a university, I hope, broad- based upon the popular will. I suppose, as has been said, there will be three colleges associated with the university. What is now called Queen’s College in Galway, the Queen’s College in Cork and a new college to be created in Dublin. I shall be surprised if there is any serious opposition offered to the government measure should it be laid SOOTHES AND HEALS.

Those Who Study Customs of That Age Cannot Accept Crucifixion.

INSIST IT IS A MYTH

Protest Against Persecution of of His Race Through Pre- judice of Centuries.

CHICAGO, Feb. 18.—The story of the crucifixion of Jesus by the Jews was declared to be a slanderous myth by Dr. Emil G. Hirsch fn his last Sun- day’s sermon at Sinai Temple. He re- garded the account of the crucifixion as largely fanciful and declared in- tolerant Christians had distorted it to make it appear that the Jews execut- ed the founder of the Christian Church. / “The account of the crucifixion is not possible of belief by those who have studied the customs of the age in which that great leader livtéd,” said Dr. Hirsch. “The Jewish law did not provide such a punishment, and the Jews could not have enforced it if it had. The details of the trial are not in accordance « with practice. Finally, the varying accounts of the supposed event in the different gos- pels are so contradictory that - no judge would admit them in evidence 'n any court. Charge Brings Woe. “But the myth that the Jews cru- ied Christ has come ringing down .@ ages, ever and anon receiving im- etus from some so-called savant. Its harvest of the years has been in- justice to the Jews, persecution, branding with irons and death and ostracism from_ society. Recently Prof. Nathaniel Schmidt of Cornell University has written a pamphlet in which he preves to himself that cer- tain recently discovered portions of the gospel substantiate the charge. He kindly adds, however, that the present-day Jews probably had noth- ing to do with the supposed event of 20 centuries ago. A few days ago I saw a review of Prof. Schmidt’s work. The reviewer merely says ‘The Jews crucified Christ.’ So it goes. I say the cruci- fixion ts a myth, but the Unitarians continue to ery out against the Jews and to so teach the children in their Sunday schools. And when they meet the Jewish child on the street they point a derisive finger at him and cry ‘You Christ killer!’ Calls for Justice. “We owe it tc 15 centuries of fa- thers and mothers to make a fight against ‘prejudice. To do justice to fellow man, show mercy to the weak and walk humbly with the Lord Thy God are the spirit of Jewish ethics. If you have a pride in your righteous- ness, you have not the Jewish relig- ion. Christians invented the slander that the Jew is righteous proud, as they did the worst charge of all, that the Jew knows not virtue and through him comes all evil. “The cowardly assassin at Lisbon; the bomb thrower in Russia and the man surfeited with the power of mon- ey in America all will be struck down.. How long will the masses stand before they force the greedy oppressor from the banquet board? Already they are becoming restless. What matters 100,000 lives whether killed at once or forced to slowly rot away if the reform can be accomp- lished. The world is attuned to right- eousness and a belief in God. in whose image man was created. Wrongs of individuals and of days are righted by the ages.” Dr. Hirsch’s subject was on “Jew- ish Ethics,” closing a serieseof five sermons on modern ethics.

There is a smoldering fire now which may be put out by a just measure of land reform to break up the great depopulated ranches and hasten the creation of a peasant pro- prietary, recognizing in practical form the principle that the land of Ireland must be possessed by the people of Ire- land, and possessed at once. But the breaking up of the ranches and the purchases of their holdings by the ten- ants are checked by legal chicanery and obstruction. No one can foretell what may happen in the future.’’ “Is Ireland in a seriously disturbed condition now, as we read in the wews- papers?’ “Rubbish! Ireland is a country more free from all serious crime than any country in Europe. For one serious crime committed in Ireland there are ten committed in England for the same population. The English papers manu- facture Irish crimes for the purpose of inflaming the public mind in this coun- try against Ireland. The English ruf- flan murders for money.

The Irishman murders to assert and enforce a principle—that the land the peasant has reclaimed from the bog, the cabin he has built and the trees he has plant- ed. are his own, subject to the land- lord’s right by law to exact a rent for the result of another man’s la- bors. “Cattle driving, about which so many falsehoods are told, has nothing cruel or inhuman in it. There has not been a single case in which injury was done to any beast. The people drive the cat- tle as a protest against the conduct of those who have often driven and who are still driving them. The policy of driving the Irish people from the land in order to make room for bullocks is historical. John Wesley wrote about it vhen he visited Ireland in the eigh- teenth century. He said: ‘The gentry are continually driving away hundreds, yea, thousands, by throwing such auan- tities of land into pasture, which leaves them neither business or food. Thus it is that mammon dispeoples mc-v parts of Ireland!’ Our demand is that this dispeopling process shall be mounes by legisiative action, and that Ireland mal not be converted into a grazing arm.”’ “Do you think, Mr. Redmond, that the forthcoming land act and the uni- versity bill bring contentment to A, noth tment “No, nothing will bring contentmen to Ireland until the Irish people make their raat laws and their own ts Ire- Mrs. Myrtle Trout Says Her Foster- Father Refuses to Tell Where Parent Is.

Nurse Predicts Disappearance of Ailment Within Six Months.

'. Wing Mon, a Chinese, born in San Francisco, 27 years ago, is at the City ~ Qtiarantine Station, two and one-halt _ miles soyth of. Jefferson Barracks and 14 miles south of St. Louis, recovering ’ from leprosy, a disease that has bec:. ' —-«*Fegarded as incurable. That Wing Mon is a genuine leper has and experts employed by the city. Tha‘ ( s steadily improving is apparent to - €ven the untrained eye. That he will Ultimately recover, and be a “clean’”’ Man in the course of the next fen months, is the belief of the white “Man who lives with him and cares for a him, his own Confident hope and the tentative anticipation of the psysician who is treating the case. ‘* Mon is the third leper St. Louis has ever taken official cognizance of. The first case of the disease brought to the ; authorities was that of Dong Jong, a Chinese, who was ) taken to the isolation ward some ten years,ago. He was pronounced to be a leper, and the city authorities were at ® loss what to do with him. Finally _ Dr. Starkloff, then health commission- €f, decided to send him to Quarantine. ‘A house was built for him on the hill - @ quarter of a mile from the wards of " the smallpox patients, and _inclosed with a high wire fence. A young doc- cr volunteered to treat the case, and ovision was made for him and the eper to live in the same house isolated om the world.

Wing Mon has a personal history of interest aside from the affliction that has isolated him from the world. He says he was a. prosperous laundryman in Frisco when the earthquake put him out of business. He came to St. Louis and opened a laundry in the county, near Ferguson. He lost’ his way one cold night and his feet were frozen. He dropped a flatiron on one of them and neglected the wound. Gangrene set in and when he reached the City Hospital the surgeons took the bones out of his left foot. Soon after that he had trouble with his face, and after sev- eral weeks was sent to the skin and cancer hospital, where he was declared to be a leper. Educating a Man for a Missionary. Hie is friendly and talkative as far as his abilities go. There are some words he cannot pronounce, but he will try them with the utmost courage as often as his attendant asks him to. In re- citing his @xperiences at the hospital, he remarked , that he had to use a “skutch.”” “You mean crutch,” said Werner. “Yep, skutch,”’ bland smile. “No, ‘erutch ‘““‘Now say crutch.” Mon promptly responded with “skutch’’ and fancied he had it right. “Tl am teaching him to read and write English,’’ said Werner. “‘We have a third reader and he is getting along fine. I expect to have him out of here inside of six months and fixed up with a good enough education to be a mis- sionary.”’ One of the favorite loafing places of Mon and his attendant is the graveyard at Quarantine. That leprosy is so rare in the United States and not so contagious as it once was thought to be, is shown by: the fact that but two states—Louisiana and Cal- ifornia—maintain hospitals for lepers. That it is a good thing not have is indicated by the dread in which it has been held since long before the Man of Galilee made clean the unclean. It was not stamped out of Great Britain where it was introduced by the crusad- ers, till the Seventeenth Century, and it still exists in Sweden. Germany has been freed from it for many years.

TELLS OF SUCCESS

Magnate Says Young Men Must Do More Than Duty to Win.

NEW YORK, Feb. 15.—Andrew Car- negle gave some advice to boys how to attain success—not necessarily riches— at the tenth annual dinner of the So- ciety of the Genesee in the ballroom of the Waldorf-Astoria. “A man must not be content with simply doing his duty; he must do more than his duty,’’. said Mr. (Car- negie. ‘‘He should be at his work ear!!- er than required and stay later. That's the way to attract attention, which is the beginning in success—the turning point. ‘I remember I attracted attention that way one day. It as an attention that made me think pretty hard for two or three days afterward. I was a telegraph operator down in Pennsylvania. Over my head was T. A. Scott,.that great and good railroad man. He was sup- posed to direct the movement of the trains on that division, giving orders at his command. I signed his name to the orders—T. A. 5S. “One day he was away. The trains were all late. The Eastern Express was three hours late. The freight boys were lying about the yard waiting for orders. Remembering Nelson, I said to myself: ‘Death or Westminster Abbey.’ I be- gan getting out the trains, signing all orders ‘T. A. 8S.’ Then the chief came in. ***Come, come, trains get out?’ “*Why, I gave the orders. I couldn’t sit here like a dummy, with things get- ting behind and all mixed up. I have given the orders many a time with you standing over me. I Knew what you would have done.’ No Personal Approval, he didn’t approve at all of my But I heard him say a with Andy, how did those “Well, action to me. day or two after to a big man, little disapproval in his voice: ‘**‘Do you know what that little white- hafred Scotch devil did the other night?

ELEVEN POUNDS BY MAIL

Postage Rate of Five Cents for First Pound, Two for Each Additional.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 15.—Senator Burnham of New Hampshire has intro- duced in Congress a tneasure of distinct importance to rural interests through- out the United States. It is a bill to provide a rural delivery parcels post for merchandise and other articles ac- tually mailed on rural delivery routes. The rural free delivery routes now num! ber more than 38,000, and on them jin excess Of 15,000,000 people receive a daily postal service. The measure Burnham has the introduced by Senator indorsement of the President and Postmaster - General Meyer. It provides, in brief, for the establishment of a domestic rural par- cels post at special rates of postage for the delivery of foodstuffs, dry goods, books and other merchandise.

Committee on Revision Favors Radical Readjustment of Salary Lists. Se ee es Menibers of the Municipal Assembly _ have taken under adwsement the propo- sition of the subcommittee of business men and civic organizations, providing for the submission of a new city char- ter to meet the growing needs of St. Louls. The Charter” Revision Committee, of which George D. Markham is president, recommended ‘among other things at the recent Mercantile Club meeting, an enlargement of the powers of the Board of Public Improvements and increased compensation for St. Louis legislators. There was a radical difference of opin- jon among the members as to whether the question of a complete new charter or merely amendments covering specific | ‘municipal necessities should be present- ed to the voters. New Charter Is Favored. 4 majority of the committee favored @ charter for the reason. that elanges which must be made to afford adequate relief are .so numerous that preparation of the amendments. by the ’ Municipal Assembly is not feasible. “The Assembly,” says the commit- tea in its address to the voters, “is business and could not give to this subject the which its already overburdened with deliberate consideration magnitude and importance demand and which it would receive from a body «uf citizens selected because of special fitness: for this duty and HAMPERED the Fred Theen, ‘mannger of the Alton Baking and Catering Co., was the author ofthe change. He expects to make .money. by throwing the hard bread away. Something Awful, He Says. was getting tg be something he told a Post-Dispatch report- eared if only the stale “It awful,”’ er. ‘“‘We wouldn't have the poor pcople had bought bread, for there are not enough of those to interfere with the sale of the fresh bread. But when some of the well-to-do women made a practice df buying the stale two-for-a-nickle loaves, 1 thought best to call a halt.”’ Other managers atiribute sudden demand for stale bread to the teachings of a recent domestic science lecturer, who said that the stale bread was more the —_—_ which escapes is a complete loss to us.” Will Give It Away Now, The clerks in the retail stores of the Alton baking and Catering Co. and of the Co-operative Catering Co. have re- ceived instructions that every morning the shelves are to be cleared of bread, and the bread is to be sent back to the bakery. The managers say that the re- duced price was for the benefit of only poor persons, and that in the future they will receive the bread free of charge. “T hope the bread fanatics won't have nerve enough to beg at our bakeries, be- eause then we will be unable te give it away,’ Mr. Theen said, as he contemp- tuously cracked a walnut with a loaf of the two-and-a-half-cent variety. -_—_— el

eS Me pa charged with no other responsibility. “The interrelation of the different sections of the city government are so intricate that the greatest care must be exercised in making material changes in the charter so that all its parts may harmonize and no legal ambiguity and confusion result. An effective revision can be accomplished only by a board of 13 freeholders.” Have Outgrown the Charter. After calling attention to the fart that the present charter of St. Louis Was adopted in 1876, when the city had a population of only 334,000 and the vity’s financial and commercial greatness was only one-third what it is today, the Charter Revision Com- mittée says: 1 The existing charter limits the authority: of city officials and pro- vides checks and balances in every direction, on the theory that the city cannot expect to get good public servants,\and must therefore render them. as powerless as _ possible. Modern charters take the other view. They concentrate authority but make responsibility definite, giving a pub- lic official More power, but holding him directly under the control of the people. Unnecessafy duplication of duties is thus abolished with re- sulting economy of time and ex- pense. 2. The old salary should he readjusted. Some offices, important at the time they were instituted, have become unimportant, and the salaries are now excessive. Other officers are so underpaid in comparison with the usual earnings of men of the stamp needed as to compel] the city to put up with the services of inferior men except when au man of the needed equipment and eharacter happens accidentally to be list of the city

uvailable at less than his real worth.

As a powerful invigorating tonic, “Favorite Prescription” imparts strength to the whole system and to the organs distinctly feminine in pac- ticular, For over-worked, “worn-out,” “run-down,” debilitated teachers, mil- liners, dressmakers, seamstresses, “shop- girls,” housekeepers, nursing mothers, and feeble women generally, Dr. Pierce’s Favorite Prescription is; the greatest earthly boon, being uneqitaled as an appetizing cordial and restorative tonic, As a soothing and strengthening nervine “Favorite Prescription” is un- equaled, and is invaluable in allaying and subduing nervous excitability, ir- ritability, nerveus .exhaustion, nervous prostration, neuralgia, hysteria, spasms, St. Vitus’ dance, and other distressing, nervous symptoms com- monly attendant upon feminine and organic diseases, It induces refreshing sleep and relieves mental anxiety and despondency. ~~.

The Municipal Assembly should be relieved of many duties which are purely administrative. The legislators would then have time to give attention to many important needs now crowded aside. [lurther- more, the present division of re- sponsibility for public work facili- tates schemes to interfere with the city administration to the detriment of public welfare. 4. Present methods of payment for public improvements through special taxation should be simpli- fied and medified so as to be fair- er to the taxpayer. 5. The Health Department and the care of the eleemosynary in- stitutions should be divorced from politics in order to obtain the best° possible results from the city’s ex- penditure for sick and unfortunate citizens. 6. Adequate salaries should be provided for members of the Muni- cipal Assembly, who now receive $300 pet year. The work is of such magnitude and complexity that it is a substantial burden on every conscientious member, and, therefore, demands a reasonable racompense, 7. The time for niunicipal elec- tions should be changed to the fall of the vear, selecting years when no State or national electionis be- .ing held. Under the present system a Whole year is often lost in ac- complisaing much needed con- stru€tion and repair. This change willjalso give incoming officials an gpportunitK to become ac- quaihted with the city’s needs be- foreithe fiscal year ends and new appropriations must be voted. 8. The present law requires a special electton to fill a vacancy, due to death or resignation, among elected officials. As a special elec- tion: costs between $60,000 and $100,000, it is suggested that some /provision for appointment of a successor to hold until the next election would be advisable. 9% Those who believe that we should have a municipal police force instead of the present body, which is controled by the State, _wish to see the charter amended so that such a municipal police force may be created if author- ity therefor be conferred by the Legisiature.’’ HOMELESS MAN ASKS JAIL TERM TO REST: GETS 10 DAYS Wanderer Beating Way to Phila- delphia Appeals to Police When Shoes Give Out. A man with his shoes worn to shreds went into the office of Chief of rolice Purdy in East St. Louis aturday and said: “Chief, will you please give me ten days in Jail? I haven’t had a mouthful to eat since Thursday and this snow !s too much for me to walk around in.” The man said his name was Thomas §S. Diston and that he was a cousin of the men who own the Diston :1w works in Philadelphia. He is making his way from California back to the factory in Philadelphia, where he can get work at his trade of saw making. He rode on freight trains to Dodge City, Kan. and there worked in a hotel. He rode on freights from there to St. Louis,. ar- riving here Thursday. He wished tha ten days in Jail to rest and recuperate: The Chief gave him his wish. Judge Brady sentenced him to ten days for vagrancy and he will be warm and well. fed in the Jail in Belleville.

George Rex Rubicam and Ada Lee Bartlett, who belons to the younger set in Bemis Heights, eloped in rubber boots to Clayton yesterday, holding hands all the way. The homes of George and Ada adjoin. They have been sweethearts always. While they played yesterday at the Rubicam home, Rex took occasion to tell Ada that she was the only girl he had ever loved. Ada said something about it being very sudden. It was a good half mile to the Court- house. They were considerably fagged, but they did not falter. Jerry Curtis, the negro night watch- man, asked them what they. wanted. When they told him they wanted to see “Mr. Happymeyer,” meaning ©. Mr. Werremeyer, who as everybody knows is the marrying Justice, Jerry gave it out as his opinion that they were rob- bers* and said he thought he would notify the Sheriff. st was about then that George Rex and Ada Lee departed hastily from the Courthouse and took the shortest cut for home. George Rex is 6 years old and Ada Lee is just past 4. They are not dis- heartened by their failure and have not changed their minds about it at all, but they think they can walt awhile.

Bank of Marissa, 28 miles southeast of Belleville, is con- ducting its busine’s without a safe and entirely on borrowed money. The safe and all the cash and securities of the bank, amounting to $50,000, have been shipped to Cleveland, ©., for repairs. The safe needs the repairs, not the cash or the securities. Over a week ago the time lock failed to work and the bank had to get along without money, Experts were sent for and they could do nothing with it. For a week the ex- perts picked at the lock, but the safe refused to open. The bank, meantime, had to borrow money on personal s.curity from finan- clers in St. Louis. ‘hen the safe was shipped to its makers in Cleveland. The mass of steel was .boxed up and sent East on a fast freight. While it is gone the bank is keeping its money in other safes in the town. HAW; A HORSE ON FAUST; SOMEBODY STOLE HIS HAY If He’s Caught, Straw Bondsmen Will Have a Chance to Bale Him Out. The thief who robbed Eddie Faust, second vice-president of the Anheuser- Busch Brewing Co., may not have been a Raffles, but he had lofty ideals. He climbed into the mansard of the palatial Faust stabie and stole two bales of hay. When the owner saw the toft door open Saturday morning he made an in- ventory of his hay. That was the first ac: of Faust. Diseovering that two bales were miss- ing he said: ‘‘Mephistopheles,’’ or words, to that effect. That Was the second act of Faust. Then he telephoned to police head- quarters and that was the third act of Faust. The telephone boy who received the message cried: 3 “Marguerite! Eddie iaust has been touched for two bales of hay and he wents the fly cops to find it.” Mr. Faust doesn’t mind the loss of the hay so much, but he doesn't like ty be put in the attitude of }beles for crooks or looking like a straw -] bondsman.

In the city it is possible to jump on a street car and go to see the man with whim you have business. Bad roads and other factors of rural life make this impossible in the country.

By 2 Staff Correspondent of the Post- Dispatch. CLINTON, Il., Feb. 15.—The outcome of Richard Snell's fight for a million now rests with a jury of 12 farmers, who are to determine whether tlie re- markable letters the disinherited son in- troduced prove that Col. Snell, his fa- ther, was insane. Arguments in the case were conclud- ed at 4 o'clock this afternoon, the Court having allowed each side five hours. During the address of Attorney George K. Ingham, who closed for the com- piainant, jurors wept and Richard Snell wag compelled to leave the room. At midnight it was understood that the jvry stood 8 to 4 for the contestants. Judge Cochrane retired at 10 o’clock. He instructed the Sheriff to bring the jury into court tomorrow morning at 8 o'clock, should they have reached a verdict in the meantime. It will be re- ceived sealed. It is generally believed tne jury will report a disagreement. This opinion is expressed by all who know the jurors.*. They -say -there-are men on the jury who will never vote a verdict. His Strange Letters. The letters bared to the public, the amours of this eccentric millionaire, who at the age. of 9 corresponded with Mrs. Lura Hamilton, wife of a Meth- odist clergyman at Newman, IIl.; Mrs. Belle Deland, wife of a real estate broker here, and Mabelle Snell McNam- ara of Kansas City, his favorite grand- niece, show that rivalry existed be- tween these three. “You gave Belle a $300 cloak,’’ Mrs. Hamilton said in one of her letters. “You ought to give me one just as | good." ‘And a again she wrote: love you as I do. I love you for your- self alone, not for your money.” In still another letter she said he had given Bellé a home and ought to give her one, too. All the references are to Mrs. Deland. Offered Her Daughter. When Col. Tom was planning one of his trips with Mabelfe, about which much evidence has been introduced in tthe case, Mrs. Hamilis: wrote begging him not to go, or, if he did, to visit her first, assuring him that her hus- band, the Rev. E. A. Hamilton,. was willing. She offered the heart of her young daughter, Eelna, for $200. Father Walts for Letter. Philip Wolff, the white-haired father ef Mrs. Hamilton, visited the post- office here a dozen times today, hoping for a letter from her. She and her husband did not confide their destina- tion to him, nor to any other member of the family when they departed secretly from Champaign last Monday. Mr. and Mrs. Hamilton and their daughter, Eelna, went from Champaign to Indianapolis. They were to remain there only a day, and then were to start t>) Pensacola. From there it was their vlan to travel leisurely through Biloxi, Poss Christian, Guifport and other ccast towns. The Hamiltons will not stay long at any one place, if they carry out the plan they formed before leaving Cham- paign. Their furnitypre is stored in an un- terated house in Newman, IIl., where Pastor Hamilton once was at the head of the Methodist Church, and no word har been received as to where the trio went. Be in California. Mrs. Hamilton talxed often of Cali- fornia and it is the opinion of her friends in Champaign that she went to San Francisco. So fearful was Mrs. Hamilton lest her whereabouts become known that she would not let even intimate friends know where she was going, and no one, so fer as can be learned, has received a letter from any member of the Ham- ilten family since their departure. J. French Deland, a real estate broker here, whose wife. Mrs. Belle Deland. is a sister of Mrs. Hamilton and jis often mentioned in Mrs. Hamilton's letters to the old millionaire, said tonight that he had no knowledge of the plans of the Hamiltons, except that they proposed to travel through the South, in the hope that a change of climate and scene might benefit Mrs. Hamilton. She ig a victim of nervous prostra- tion, brougnt on, her friends say, by the revelation .of her connection with Col. Snell. Judge's Instructions, Judge Cochran's instructions to the jury covered seven typewritten pages. Summarised, they were as follows: “A man may be a moral leper and still make a legal will.

Jolly, formerly of St. Louis, shot and killed her at 2304 Center street, Denver, afterncon, and. then turried himself .and sent a He ‘was found dispatches him any yesterday the weapon upon bullet through his brain. dead by the side of his wife, state. Three days ago Jolly. wrote a letter to his brother, Orbe Jolly, of 3917 Blair avenue, saying that his wife and “‘turn- ed him down” and would not live with him, and that he was going to end it all. The letter, addressed and stamped, but unsealed, was found in his pocket. Recently Wrote Brother. Orbe Jolly knew nothing of the tragedy until the news was conveyed to him by a Post-Dispatch reporter. He said his brother left St. Louis Thanksgiving day for the West. He went first to Raton, N. M., and worked in the_railroad boiler shops, and then moved to Albuquerque. The brother here received a postal card a few days ago, stating that Clyde was going to Denver. Jolly’s wife formerly was Miss Cleo- patra Fry of Horton, Kan. The couple had been married six years, and leave a daughter 3 years old. Separated Several Tmes. Jollys formerly lived in Moberly, Clyde Jolly spent a week with his brother, Orbe, last fall, but had not made St. Louis his home for several years. It was known to the St. Louis brother that Clyde and his wife had been separated several times. Neigh- bors heard Jolly quarreling with his wife during the last few days. The letter found in’ Jolly’s pocket, after his death, addressed to his broth- er, follows: , “Dear Brother: Well, Orbe. I will write you a few lines to let you know that I am well, but that I am not in the best of spirits, as the only one on earth that I care for has turned me down, and says she will not live’ with me. Orbe, I dearly love this woman. i love her more than I do my own life, and I am tired of living. I am going to end it all soon, so bye-bye forever.

Gumberts was in his new role of Sir Galahad in St. Louis County politics. “I'm a reformer,’’ shouted Gumberts, “and. an influential member of the Good Government League. In two years I'll clean out the corrupt machine which has for years oppressed the county.” The proprietor of the famous Louisi- ana Club, who was indicted eight times by a grand jury for selling liquor with- out a license on Sunday, was loud in his denunciations of Essen and his protege, Senator Gardner, and equally loud in praise of Prosecuting Attorney John- ston, who headed the fight against the county boss. Opened Johnston's Eyes. “I was the man who opened John- ston’s eyes to the fact that Essen and Gardner have used him as a cat's-paw to pull their chestnuts from the fire,” said Gumberts, “Essen and Gardner are rich men. Johnston, poor devil, didn't gét a cent, but got all the blame.”’ Gumberts opened hostilities with Es- sen last summer, when he charged that the boss, through his influence with the County Court, defeated the license for the Loulsiana Club. At that time the diminutive Gumberts, standing on tip- toe to shake his fist under the nose of the altitudinous Essen, called’ him “a —— bie tig.” Gumberts declares that in consequence he was.made the scapegoat of the grand jury, which compelled him to close his club. A Zenlous Reformer. Gumberts, in his zeal for reform, pa- raded the corridors of the. Courthouse at Clayton yesterday ,afternoon, and warned the officeholders, whom he up- praided as “Essen’s pensiohérs,” that he would “clean them all out of the place within two years.” “If George Autenrieth hadn't welch- ed,” exclaimed Gumberts, “we'd have beaten Essen clean in his own baili- wick, Clayton. Essen went to Auten- rieth and threatened to open a ‘saloon: opposite Autenrteth’s if he didn’t com- promise. Autenrieth was frightened, and offered to let Essen name half the Clayton delegation. We could have hed ‘he whole delegation if he had stood tirm. there was nothing doing. “At Welltson tonight Empire Hall was gacked with Essen's antagonists. oe | that, and retreated with ; wes | Poe the street, where ‘he held re He.

He went down to the voters with tears In his eyes and begged “hem to stand by Essen, byt they sald rump convention, standing on a dry goods bex to make‘a speech.” Club a General Store. As part of his reformation, Gumberts says he will convert the Louisiana Club into a general store, where “anything from a pin to a horse and buggy, and including soda water,’’ will be for sale. He declares that Essen and Mayor Lewis of University City offered their best services in procuring him a liquor license, and guaranteed that he could reopen his club without interference if he would use his influence to have with- drawn the suit, now before the Supreme Court, to decide whether University City is really a city or not. “I told them there was nothing do- ing,’’ said Gumberts. “They wanted to drive me from the county because I was too smart, but I am here to stay.” AMERICAN WITNESS IN DRUCE CASE COMMITTED TO ASYLUM Move Prevents British Government From Extraditing Him on Perjury Charge. NEW YORK, Feb. 15.—Robert Cald- well, the American witness in the fa- mous Druce case in London, will be taken to the Manhattan State Hospi- tal for the Insane, on Ward's Isiand, tomorrow. . He was committed to that institution today by Judge Lester W. Clark of the Supreme Court in Rich- mond County. In obtaining the commitment of Cald- well, his lawyer stole a march on the British Government, which is endeavor- ing to have Caldwell extradited to answer to the charge of perjury. Caldwell’s commitement was obtained on the petition of his daughter, Miss Georgine M. W. Caldwell, supported by the certificates of two examiners in lu- nacy, who declared him a helpless paranoiac. : Miss Caldwell stated that in the last few years her father continually talked about distinguished men whom he said he had known and his connection with important cases and great mysteries. |mISSOURI TRAIN I$ ROBBED ee Ppecial to the Post-Dispatch.

Moskowski Took Ride Under Protest With Frank Arent. Joe

On beaching his rowboet at the Eads Bridge at 8:30 o'clock last night, Frank Arent was horrified to discover that his friend, Joe Moskowski, better know" i« Joe Fisher, who began ti « * ‘ge wiih him at the Merchants’ Br-dse, had a: s- appeared from the boat. Arent at once reported the disappearance and said he feared Fisher had fallen overboard. Although the two men sat facing each other in the skiff, Arent does not know when Fisher left it, he says. He was preoccupied, he says, by watching a leak in the side of the boat, and they were in the dark on the river. Arent last saw his friend, he says, as they passed through the lights of the North Market street ferry. A ferryboat approaching whistled at them, and in avoiding it they collided with the pier. Had Been in Saloon. He says that no «words were ex- changed as they rowed down the river. Arent had spent the evening in the sa- loon of his brother, John Arent, 900 O'Fallon street, and left over the pro- test of his brother, who wished him to go home to bed. At North Market street and Broadway he met Fisher and with*great difficulty persuaded him to go rowing. They had two drinks of beer each, he says. The boat’s course was about 75 feet from the shore. Fisher, according to Arent, is an expert swimmer. He is 19 years old, works for the American Car and Foundry Co. in Madison, and lives, Arent thinks, on Biddle street. He weighs 150 pounds, is 5 feet 6 inches in height, and wore a black suit without an overcoat. Arent, a mattress makeér, North Seventh street. PROPOSED 365 TIMES IN YEAR; FINALLY ACCEPTED: SEPARATED IN 10 DAYS Both of Divorce Principals Allege Extreme Cruelty in Suit. Special to the Post-Dispatch. CHICAGO, Feb. 16.—Chicago’s di- vorce courts brought to light today one of the most persistent wooers of his- tory. It was disclosed that Joseph Dempsey courted his sweetheart, Cecila, four years, proposing 365 times in the last one and winning her hand. Yet within tHree months after marriage he tired of his wife. Dempsey lives at 4232 Cottage Grove avenue. He filed before Judge Walker a bill asking divorce on the ground of extreme and repeated cruelty. Mrs. Dempsey, 191 Bowen avenue, filed a cross-bill in which she made similar charges. The hearing of the day was on the So gh complaint and was not contest- “‘He visited me for four years be- a we were married,’’ Mrs. Dempsey testified. ‘In the last year he proposed to me almost every night, and finally I They were married Aug. 25, 1907, Crown Point, Ind., and Nov. 10 separated. Differences in religion caused some of our troubles,’’ Mrs. Dempsey said. ‘*T never was p alt to him, but he often beat me and threatened to kill me. When he left me there was only half a loaf of bread in the house.”’ WEST PLAINS TAFT VICTORY © LAID TO GILLESPIE, ANTI-TAFT Sager’s Assistant Said to Have Paid Hotel Bills of the Secretary’s Opponents. According to a telegram to the Post- Dispatch from West Plains, the activ- ity of Grant Gillespie, Assistant Cir- cult Attorney of St. Louis, in urging delegates to the Fourteenth Congres- sional District convention there recently to vote against instructions for Secre- tary Taft, was considered largely re- sponsible for the convention's decision to instruct in favor of Taft. wlespie lived in Southern Missouri when he was appointed an assistant, at $3000 a year, by Circuit Attorney Sager. Country delegates who knew him as a rural lawyer were somewhat astonished when he appeared at West Plains, the - atch says, and displayed a fat roll liis and hired all the rooms at the Hh salt hotels. He announced that they were for the* anti-Taft delegates, and when he found State Chairman Dickey in one of them, ordered him to move. Gillespie's activity forced many delegates who were for Taft to obtain quarters in private residences.

Schmitt of 5621A Minnesota avenue said to Mrs. Smith: ‘“‘Have you heard anytning about your husband?’’ Startled by the strange question, Mrs. Smith asked what it meant, and Mrs. Schmitt, as gentl. as she could, told Mrs. Smith that she had received a telephone message at her home that Mr. Smith was dead. Without waiting to put on a wrap, Mrs. Smith ran from the house and went to the nearest drug store and call- ed up the factory where her husband works. * “Dead” Man Answers Phéne, Smith himself answered the telephone and Mrs. Smith’s grief was turned to joy.

0 The W Liquor Dealers Advise Women Their Coffee Is Worse Than ‘‘Booze.”

NO CONVERTS AS YET mua White Ribbon Wearers Belleville Resist Tracts Against Water Wagon.

in

An attempt is being made by the Re- tail Liquor Dealers’ Association of Belle- ville to convert the members of the Woman’s Christian Temperance Union. An active missionary campaign is being conducted. The temperance women are being pelted through the mails with anti-temperance literature. During the last week the members of the organjzation have received a rink pamphlet setting forth with considerable zeal the views of the retail liquor deal- ers on the temperance question, the Sunday question, race suicide, personal liberty and European travel, with many passages copiously marked and underscored. Bible Used as Argument. It is contended that Christ is on the side of the retail liquor uealers, because He said: “Ye hypocrites, doth n° each of you on the Sabbath loose his ox or his ass from the stable and lead him away to watering?”’ The conclusion reached from this is that Christ was against the lid and that ‘“‘man may spend the Sabbath ac- cording to his own liking, for if hé be allowed to lead the cattle to drink on the Sabbath he may reasonably be sup- posed to have the right to permit him- self the same privilege.’’ Parents are admonished to be mighty careful how they send their children to Sunday school. Says the circular: ‘Many a proud mother sends her children, beautifully dressed, to Sunday school, without considering that she is there- by committing their souls into the hands of strangers. “She does not consider that the influ- ence of the parents over the child thereby may become undermined when, perhaps, which is often the case; acts which have heretofore been taught as harmless, and which are the constant practice at home, are now, character- ized as sir.” Coffee Compared to Alcohol. Alcoholic stimulants and coffee are compared, to the vast disparagement of the latter. The author of the pamphlet says: “I, for my part, enjoy to be pres- ent in-a gathering of women where cof- fee is partaken of; it is indeed a plea- sure to see how inspiring the drink acts, especially when it is hot and strong, and how it quickens the thought —activity of the mind—provided its in- dulgence is not carried to excess. How joy sparkles in the eyes of the ladies, young and old! And then someone goes to the plano, and anon, hilarity reigns, the like of which would not be permit- ted in a dramshop.”’ Men meet in dramshops, acording to the pamphlet, not so much to drink as to seek mental recreation and uplift and to inform themselves. ‘‘The dramshops are the very places where the exchanges of opinions among men is carried on, and the conversations there are most certainly more educative than that of the women at the coffee table.’’ The dramshop is declared to exist in response to “the vital necessity among men for the public exchange of opin- ions.”” One of the chief uses of the sa- ‘loon is said to be to enable the children of saloon keepers to ‘‘observe the ef- fects of intemperance.” The temperance women say that up to this time they have not heard of any of their number transferring their alle- giance from the W. C. T. U. to the R. L. D. A., on account of the pink pam- phiet. GRANITE CITY PASTOR 10 ANSWER LIQUOR DEALERS The Rev. C. C. Hall Will Tell How City Will Get Alohg Without Dramshop Fees. In answer to the contention of the Re- tail Liquor Dealers’ Association fh the local option fight in Venice Township, the Rev. Claude C. Hall, pastor of the Niedringhaus Memorial M. E. Church, will lecture tonight on “How Granite City Will Be Able to Get Along Without That $19,000 Revenue.” There are 37 saloons in Granite City, which pay a license of $500 a year. The saloon men say that without this revenue the city government will be unable to transact its business. The W. C. T. U. of -..wardsville has called on all its members and the Chris- tlan women of that city and vicinity to unite at 9 o'clock every morning in prayer ofr the success of the local op- tion movement. Eighteen townships of 23 in Madison County will vote on local option in the April election. Petitions have been filed for the submission of the question in Venice, Nameoki, Edwardsville, Alton, New Douglas, St. Jacob, Olive, Alham- bra, Jarvis, Pin Oak, Hamel, Omph- ghent, Fort Russell, Moro, Chouteau.

VERO H. S. hae oe Once Resident of Carlinville, Ill, Shot in Seneca,

HAD BOUGHT PROPERTY

Sons of Woman Who Disposed of It Taken Before the Coroner.

Special to the Post-Dispatch. SENECA, Kan., Feb. 15.—The police st'll are without a clew to the slayer of Herbert S. Jordan, formerly of Car- linville, Ill, and former secretary to Gov. Bailey of Kansas, who was shot on the main street of Seneca last night. The Coroner’s jury today declared that Jordan’s death was caused by a pistol shot fired by an unknown person. Sheriff Dennis last night telephoned of- ficers at Havensville, 25 miles south, to bring James, Mike and Anthony Lally t» Seneca, as he thought they had knowledge of the shooting. Recently Bought Pruperty. Three months ago Herbert Jordan hse.d bought 185 acres of land from Mrs. Lally, and there was a rumor of dis- satisfaction on the part of her sons over this sale. The description of the who bought a revolver here yesterday corresponds to the descrip- tien of one of the Lallys. Few persons in Seneca are acquainted with the Lallys. Witnesses at the inquest, however, ad- mitted that the stranger seen before the shooting resembled James Lally, but were unable to identify him as the man they saw. So far as can be icarned, Jordan had no enemies. Had Left a Restaurant. The shot was fired a few minutes after 7 p. m. Friday. Jordan had just left a restaurant on Main street, onc block east of where he was killed. He was walking west toward his club, two blocks away. The assassin watched him as he passed a dark doorway. Then he stepped ouf, fired the shot and disappearec around a corner. The ball entered the back of Jordan’s head, near the base of the brain, and the spinal chord was severed. Powder marks on the neck indicated that the shot had been fired at close range. E, R. THOMAS, WATERLOOED FINANCIAL NAPOLEON, MUST LIVE ON $50,000 A YEAR Thinks He Can Struggle Along on That, but Creditors Say $15,000 Would Do.

NEW YORK, Feb. 15.—If the creditors [ of E. R. Thomas, the collapsed ‘Na- poleon of Finance,” agree to his plan of settling his debts, they will have to wait 27 years before they get the last of their money. Thomas owes a chain, of New York banks $2,700,000. Here is the proposi- tion he offers to*#his creditors: He will pay immediately $200,000 in cash contributed by his mother, the widow of Gen. Sam Thomas, and his sister, Mrs. R. L. Beekman. Hereafter he will pay $100,000 a year out of his income, which averages $130,000 a year. There are fixed charges against the income amounting to $30,000 a year. He has to pay his brother Horace $15,000 a year, and his life insurance premiums amount to $15,000 a year. And he wants $50,000 a year for the living expenses of himself and his wife. The creditors think that Mr. Thomas and his wife ought to struggle along on $15,000 a yea-. Thomas maintains that collateral which he has posted against his loans Is really worth much more than appears just now, and that if the creditors wait awhile before disposing of it his in- debtedness will be reduced to less than $1,000, 000. GOLD, SILVER AND COPPER FOUND IN ORE TAKEN FROM CUT IN PANAMA CANAL Geologists Make Discovery Calcu- lated to Put Uncle Sam in Mining Business. HARRISBURG, Pa., Feb. 15.—Ore con- taining gold, silver and copper has been found in the celebratec. Culebra cut of the Panama Canal. This has been ascertained at the lab- oratory of Col. H. C. Demming, consult- ing State Geologist !n this city. Three lots of the ore were sent here and in every one of them the three metals were found, one of the samples being considerably richer in the precious metals than the others. Larger quantities are to be shipped to ascertain what the profits will be when the ore is properly worked up in bulk. The belief is that all the returns of the rich finds will inure to the United States Government.

‘ BAN GUARANTEE Congressman Tells Commer- cial Club Our Monetary System Is Disgrace. FOR ASSET CURRENCY —_—_—_——__ Huttig Replies, Declaring Al- drich Bill Would Not Be Effective. ee Calling the present monetary system of the United States disgraceful, Con- gressman Charles B. N. Fowler of New Jersey, chairman of the House Committee on Banking and Currency, in an address before the Commercia!] Club last. night, pleaded for govern- mental guarantee of bank deposits and for an increased currency circulation based on the assets of the banks. -\ bond-secured currency, such as now cxists, is a detriment to prosperity and pression, aceording to Mr. Fowler. Calls It Paramount. “It is fine,’’ he added, “for those who buy and sell bonds, but expands the currency when it should contract it, and vice versa. “More important than trust- -busting, the Panama Canal, the tariff, the in- come or any other so-called paramount issue, is this one of currency reform. “At the present time our currency has no relation to the business interests of the country. This was shown when the banks in the recent financial crisis is- sued credit paper to the amount of $250,000,000."’ Mr. Fowler referred to financial con- ditions in 189%, when, he declared, the currency system of the country was saved from chaos and ruin by “the ccurage, the intelligence and foresight of Grover Cleveland.” Mr. Fowler’s eulogy of Cleveland was vigorously applauded. “Although I am a militant Republi- can,’’ said he, “I am willing to go on record as saying that Grover Cleve- land’s sterling affirmation of the gold standard and his refusal to listen to the silver inflationists was about the most courageous thing that has ever been done by a Presicent of this country. He saved us from a policy of absolute repudiation. Denounces Subtreasury Plan. Mr. Fowler commented caustically on what he termed the ‘practices’ of the Federal Government with respect to de- positing money in the national banks. In this connection he denounced the Subtreasury system as a “curse to commerce,” and said that, under exist- ing conditions, one section of the coun- try is in an attitude of opposition to the other because of the cry that one is getting more than the other of Uncle Sam's cash. He cited instances in the récent panic where a single depositor had withdrawn as much as $1,000,000 from his bank In a single day, which emphasized, he ar- gued, the need of a Federal. guarantee to prevent fear and panic, to forestall which there is now no apparent rem- edy. Mr. Foweler, who was the guest of the Commercial Club at dinner at its regular monthly meeting at the St. Louis Club, was introduced by Presi- dent James A. Waterworth. His con- clusions with regard to the currency were approved in the main by most of the bankers present. Charles H.

NEW YORK, Feb. 15.—The New York World and the Post-Dispatch last Sun- day printed an exclusive interview with Jv Pierpont Morgan relative to the financial and industrial situation in this ’ . country. The interview was obtained a a. a.

In regard to the labor situa- tion Mr. Morgan said: “Strike! they (the workingmen) have got no jobs now. There are no stocks On hand, you know. We do not want to take up work again now. So what They will have to submit The question is to be settled. They are to learn that they control industry. We want able business possible.”’ Morgan's Statement.

Farewell, Lonelies, a Long Farewell; Travis No Longer. on Market.

DID A BIG BUSINESS

Telephone Rang Till He “Re- formed;” Now It Has Rung Off. No longer is Cassius M. Travis cf 6816 Old Manchester road, whose wife, So- fronia, wished to donate him to some poor “‘lonely,’’ for sale or barter. He has won his way back into the affections and confidence of his spouse, and is again eating chicken at the-head of the table. Mrs. Travis told of her husband's re- turn to grace when a Post-Dispatch re- porter talked to her yesterday. “Yes, Cassius has been taken out of the market,” she said. “He has made good and I dont want to sell or ex- change him. There were plenty of in- quiries from women and girls who thought he might be suitable. But he has improved greatly and can stay here as long as he keeps up to the present mark.”’ Hard to Kidnap. Travis might have found himself kid- naped but for his great bulk. It was no easy task for a young woman to run away or walk away with him while he was unwilling to leave his home and chicken. Nothing short of a dray and a helper or two would have availed in abducting him. The troubl>s of Travis began when his wife wrote to the Post-Dispatch in an- swer to a “Miss Lonely” who bewailed her misfortune in not having annexed a husband. Mrs. Travis expressed her readiness to quitclaim Travis. Busier Than a Nickelodeon. At this juncture the telephone in the Travis home became busier than a mov- ing picture machine in a nickelodeon. It fairly streamed with offers for Tra- vis’ hand. The operator on Mrs. Tra- vis’ line, from pure force of habit, be- gan to switch other calls to her tele- phone. Travis became afraid to trust himself on the street, lest he should have to defend himself from young women intent on marriage. He was afraid to go to work, because of the certainty that directly his name became known to his fellows his pace of mind would fly before their sarcasm. Mrs. Travis’ change of heart and the chicken have done wonders in recalling his old cheerfulness.

was a capable business man, must be taken into consideration when re- viewing his actions in later life. Whether he was a man of violent tem- per from the first must be regarded be- fore determining whether his violence of temper in his last years indicated mental unsoundness. Immorality No Proof. . “Moral and mental depravity do not prove mental unsoundness under the law. No matter what Col. Snell's be- havior may have been regarding women generally, immorality does not. prove he was not of testamentary capacity. “If Col. Snell did not know the nat- ural objects of his bounty and did not understand what would become of his property under his will, then the will fails. “Tf Col. Snell did knew what he was doing when he had the will drawn, then the will stands. ‘Unless it is shown that Mabelle Snell- McNamara’s influence over Col. Snell was such as to make him favor her unreasonably in his will, his bequest to her cannot be considered as attack- ing the will.

—— “Gifts to her during his lifetime do not affect the validity of the instru- ment. No proof having been introduced regarding the woman named Belle, men- tioned in an amendment to the petition, the allegation regarding her influence over Col. Snell is to be disregarded.” Col. Snell’s will is a remarkable in- strument. For seven months he h:-:d lawyers preparing it, and after it 8 completed he took it to Washington to consult lawyers of national reputation as to its validity. For years before the will was drawn he had discussed it with members of his family and with lawyers, and apparently it represented the fruit of long thought and care on his part. Mabelle original will, Snell-McNamara, under the was to receive an an- nuity of . By a codicil this was in- creased to $600, and still later it was increased to $1200, which stands in the will as contested in this suit. Richard Snell originally was to re- ceive $1200 a year. By codicils this amount was cut d-wn to $50 a year. None of these annuities is to continue after the beneficiary diese Other relatives of the Colonel were mentioned for small annuities. The es- tate is not to be divided under the will until the youngest heir living when it was made, who is an infant, is dead. This makes it improbable that there would be a division for 70 or 8 years, by which time the estate would be worth $100,000,000.

Advertising Men to Smoke. / RIDGELY 10 G0 TO KANSAS CITY BANK MEETING Comptroller and Prospective President of New Com- merce to Get Acquainted.

KANSAS CITY, Mo., Feb. 1..—W. B. Ridgely, Comptroller of the Treasury and prospective president of the new National Bank of Commerce, will be in Kansas City Wednesday morning. A telegram to that effect was received here today. D. R. Francis, chairman of the organ- igedtion committee, will arrive Tuesday. The stockholders and this committee meet Thursday in the offices of R. A. Long. Mr. Ridgely will come to Kansas City as Comptroller, at least ostensibly. “He is bound to do that,” said H. C. Ward, a member of the committee. “Mr. Ridgely has made certain demands that had to be complied with before the bank could be reopened. It is cm tie and commendable that he should come here for this meeting to confer with the receiver, Mr. Cutts, and the com- mittee that has arranged the details of reopening. ‘“‘As he is still Comptroller, Mr. Ridge- ly coutd not come to Kansas City in the capacity of one who is considering the acceptance of the presidency of the bank. “Probably he desires to see the bank’s new home and get acquainted with our people. The position he has been asked to take means an important step in his life. It is reasonable to suppose that he will give it much consideration.” The knowledge that Mr. Ridgely may be the president hag been helpful to the re-organization scheme. Since its announcement the requests for the new stock have been so numerous that sev- eral of the committee have said two million dollars of the shares could be sold.

By Leased Wire From the New York Bureay of the Post-Dispatch. / NEW YORK, Feb. 15.—While George ee’ B. Cortelyou is busy denying his hos- tility to President Roosevelt and “my _policies,”’ the astute Secretary of the ‘Treasury has in full working order as well-organized boom as ever was built. _ Ldke everything connected with Mr. Cortelyou, his boom for the presidency is worked on rubber tires with ball bear- Mr. Cortelyou’s boom, despite his per- a nt denials that such a thing ex- | sts, took tangible form abovt two +months ago when J. Pierpont Morgan paid a flying visit to Washington. It Was about the time that Cortelyou was exploiting the great success of his issue - of Panama bonds, which he claimed had “saved the country from going clean to _ the financial bow-bows. Cortelyou was - then occupying a right smart place in - the public eye. Confers With “Interests.” ‘On the return of Mr. Morgan to New York a conference with ‘“‘the interests,”’ ~ in which he is an attractive mover, was ’ held and it was deciced that Cortelyou Was the man of the hour—the only one to stem the tide of Rooseveltism and _. throw the Taft boom off the trestle to __ Sink deep into the bosom of Salt Creek. Of course, in the case under consid- » ration, Mr. Morgan was selected as » the general manager, so to’speak. The first thing a general manager has to do to make his own job good is to secure a! man who can operate the machine w ‘cessfully. o. Then, what was mofré appropriate than the choice of Patrick J. McNulty. McNulty is in many ways a remarkable man. He has a home in Yonkers, but lives in New York. He was formerly an employe of the Street Cleaning De- partment. He is reputed to be wealthy. ‘He is an active worker in the Ancient der of Hibernian& and u labor advo- | Gate of advanced stripe. He contrives _ to be ia factor in every possible political gitgation. Fri Have Faith. ‘ Persons w do not know McNulty _ very well wonder at his sucvess and ap- _ parent influence. But those who have _ followed ‘his movements marvel not at anything that he may accomplish. .MeNulty, who had long been referring Cortelyou as “‘George’ to prove to those around him that he was on terms of particular intimacy with the Secre- tary of the Treasury, got in touch with “The Interests’”—and Mr. Morgan. It /@id not take him long to convince the Wall street crowd that he owned the Irish vote, controlled the Catholic vote Sta could deliver the labor vote to Cor- telyou. McNulty has about as strong a claim on the Irish vote as the “Far- * Marquis of Londonderry. eNulty took up headquarters in the derbilt Hotel at Forty-second street _ @nd Lexington avenue. A call was sent ott, and soon there reported to McNulty as fine an array of hustling accelerators : of. public’ opinion as was ever assem- | bled, even by the enterprising Lem oe aa Money Spent Freely. Phen began the real work of Cortel- yo "s gum-shoe boom. The accelerators ' Were schooled by McNulty, who was di- rectly inspired in Wall street after a thorough | rehearsal, they were sent on their way—North, South, East and t. Money wrstispent freely.

VICE-PRESIDENTIAL BEE IS PLACED BY FRIENDS IN OLLIE JAMES’ BONNET Representative Garrett of Tennes- see Issues Statement to Show Kentuckian Logical Man. WASHINGTON, Feb. 15.—The_ vice- presidential bee is now buzzing about the head of Ollie James, the giant Con- gressman from Kentucky. The little in- sect was “‘sicked’’ on James by a num- ber of enthusiastic Bryan men in the House, chief among whom is Represen- handed out the following “reasons why Ollie James should pve the Democratic nominee for Vice-President:” “1. The nomination of Mr. Bryan is assured. Mr. James is, and has always been, in full accord with Mr. Bryan up- on public qusetions and policies. The Democratic party has made the mistake in the past of waekening its ticket by nominating men for Vice-President as a matter of expediency whose attitude toward the principles and policies de- clared in the platform was doubtful. We ought to make a straight fight this, year with an unequivocal platform and unequivocal candidates, both for Presi- dent and Vice-President. There can’t be any doubt about the position of Mr. James. ‘2. The things in the above being true, the next question is that of ability. Mr. James can stand in the limelight on that question. He is eloquent, well informed, has fine tact, full information, a gift of ready speech, and, above all, a sincerity of conviction which compels admiration and confidence. “8. Geographically it is desirable. He is from Kentucky, a Southern State, which has become doubtful, politically, and in which James is, perhaps, the most forceful figure. doubted that James could carry Ken- tucky in any contest in which he was personally involved. “Conclusion—For these reasons Mr. James seems to be the logical candi- date.”’ OHIO. BRINGS SUIT AGAINST CORPORATIONS FOR $1,316,172 Public Service Concerns Charged With Failing to Pay State, Tax. COLUMBUS, O., Feb. 15.—Attorney- General Wade H. Ellis struck a blow today at what he believes to be the iniquity of leasing and holding compa- Mnies in the operation of public utilities by filing suits in Columbus, Cincinnati! and Cleveland for sums aggregating $I,316,172.93. The object is to collect Willis taxes against public service cor- ‘porations which do not operate their own lines of railroad. The companies sued and the amounts asked are as follows: Cincinnati Street Rallway’Co., $329,780; Columbus. Railway Co., $218,260; Forest City Railway Co., Cleveland, $36,135; Cleveland & Pittsburg Railway Co., $317,344.68; Little Miami Railway, Cin- cinnati, %208,858.25; Baltimore & Ohio Southwestern “Railway Co., $195,780. These companies all lease their roads to operating companies.

Death has stilled the tongue of ‘“Ba- ron” John “Frederick William von Muegge, the wagging of which, ac- cording to the story he told in Louls, prevented him coming into pos- session of a $300,000 ancestral estate in Germany. Information received in St. Louis yes- terday stated that von Muegge died re- cently in Hanover, Germany, in com- parative poverty. If von Muegge’s tongue kept him out of his fortune, the wonderful stories that he wove with it enabled him to live in comparative comfort in the United States. He traveled from city to city and represented that his mother had died in Germany and left him a fortune on the condition that he serve 10 years in the American army or in some met- ropolitan police department to qualify himself for the handling of such a vast sum'of money. Although it is now said that von Muegge had neither titles nor estate, he was able to interest such a distinguished personage as Congressman Charles H. Grosvenor of Qhio in his cause. Protege of Grosvenor. Congressman Grosvenor, according to von Muegge, was trying to keep him in some official position so that he could inherit* his estate. Von Muegge said he had hired Congressman Grosve- ‘ner as his attorney, and would repay the Ohio statesman when he came into his own. He is said to have borrowed large sums of money on notes payable when he got the fortune. Von Muegge said that he had: seryed four years as a policeman in St.- Louis, when Overstolz was Mayor, but the records do not bear out his statement. He came here in the fall of 1903 and tried to get on the police force. Failing in that, he attempted to get a place as a gatekeeper or Jefferson Guard at the World's Fair, but was again un- successful. According to von Muegge’s story, he was the. son of Baron Freiherr von Muegge, and his mother was the Count- ess Holzendorf. He said he fought a duel. with the Count of Westonhagen over a woman when he was a young man. He severely wounded the Count and his father sent him to America. Private in Army. He first enlisted in the United States Army, served three years, came to St. Louis, where he says he served four years as a policeman, then went to Omaha, from there. to Cincinnati, and to various other large cities and served on the police forces. He said Congressman Grosvener got him a position as Deputy United States Marshal at Chillicothe, O., and later placed him as a watchman in the. Cen- sus Bureau at Washington. He lost one position after another because he could t keep his mouth shut. When he was “Nast in St. Louis he exhibited a letter purporting to have been writ- ten by Congressman Grosvener, in re- ply to one he had written requesting that he be transferred to the United States Marshal's office in Washington. When “Baron” von Muegge was in St. Louis he said that he would come into his fortune Oct. 1, 1904, If he could serve a few months longer as a police- man or Jefferson Guard, which was a form of military duty. His story was universally believed. FLORIDA REPUBLICAN SPLIT CAUSED BY HUGHES ENVOY On Eve of Convention He Kept Foraker Delegates From Going to Secretary Taft. By Leased Wire From the New York Bureau of the Post-Dispatch. NEW YORK, Feb..15.—Judson Douglas Wetmore, the envoy of the national Hughes League to the Southern States. today submitted to the league a report of his recent visit to Florida, Mississipp! and Georgia. Mr. Wetmore is a New York lawyer, but formerly was a Re- publican politician in Florida. He went to Florida just before the State Convention was held, at which the Taft and Foraker forces split, resulting in two conventions being held. According to Mr. Wetmore, the origi- nal intention ofthe Florida Republicans was to indorse the Roosevelt adminis- tration, but to leave the delegates unin- structed. He declares that President Roosevelt heard of this and insisted that the delegates should be instructed for Taft When Mr. Wetmore reached Florida he found that Gov. Hughes did not figure 'n thes fight to any extent. Wetmore joined the Foraker men and made a speech the night before the convention. urging that they stand by the Ohio Sen- ator. His talk had much to do with the split in the convention. ,

LEADERS ARE REJOICING

Ex-Gov. Campbell Proposed as Successor of Foraker _ in the Senate. Special to the Post-Dispatch. COLUMBUS, O., Feb. 15.--A poll ot the Democratic members of the Ohio Legislature shows that W. J. Bryan is the choice for the Democratic presiden- tial nomination. The members were asked to state their preference as be- tween Bryan and Judson Harmon of Cincinnati,° and to further state, if neither of these candidates was accepta- ble, whom they would prefer. The ques- tion was. put to each member of the Senate and the House who could be reached. There are 77 Democrats in both bodies. of these, 53 announced themselves in fa- vor of Bryan, nine in favor of Har- mon and one in favor of Mayor Tom L. Johnson of Cleveland. Six refused to commit themselves at all und eight were absent and could not be reached. Of these six are almost certainly Bryan men, one is for Harmon.and one is in doubt. Townsmen for :Harmon. The members of the House from Hamitton County (Cincinnati, where Judge Harmon lives) furnished six of the nine votes recorded in Mr. Har- mon’s favor. There are 10 in the House delegation. The Cuyahoga (Cleveland) delegation declared strongly in favor of the Nebraskan. Thirteen members Of the delegation are for Bryan, one for Folk and Oue absent, but classed as a Bryan sup: porter. Roberts, who favors Folk, was one of Tom L. Johnson's proteges, but recently quarreled with the Cleveland Mayor and on Friday made a bitter attack on him and his policies before the House. Democrats Are Confident. There is a feeling cmong the Demo- crats that the Taft-Foraker contest will result in such a split in the Repub- lican party in this State that a Demo- cratic Legislature will certaily be elect- ed this fall. This Legislature will choose a successor to Senator Foraker. Ex- Gov. James E. Campbell, who is one of the leaders of the Bryan movement, is in the lead as a candidate. Gov. Camp- bell stated today that he believed that Bryan would receive the solid vote in Ohio in the Denver convention. NEBRASKA COUNTY IGNORES TAFT, INDORSES ROOSEVELT Delegates Not Given Even a Sec- ond Choice in National Convention. Special to the Post-Dispatch. OMAHA, Neb., Fep. 15.—There is a strong indication that Taft will not se- cure the Republican presidential delega- tion from Nebraska, but that the dele- gation will be instructed for Roosevelt. Taft managers are concerned over the prospects. Yesterday at the primaries in Lancas- ter County, of which Lincoln is the county seat, Roosevelt received almost . twice as many votes as did Taft and the County convention immediately after- ward instructed delegates to the State convention to cast the Lancaster vote for Roosevelt. Taft's friends asked that Taft be made the second choice, but the conven- tion refused to so instruct. Taft’s naime was printed on the ballot, but it was necessary to write the name of Roose- velt thereon. Taft men now fear that other counties in the State will follow tthe lead of Lancaster and that there will be a landslide for Roosevelt, for whom the Nebraska delegation to the national convention will be > instructed.

x Ae Se? ee & 34 "ESSEN NEAR DEFEAT ni PRIMARY RACE Returns Show He Has 69 Out of 146 Delegates, With 16 Doubtful. ; a 2. foam oid ss _.

CONVENTION MONDAY

Contests Will Be Held in Clayton and Wellston Districts. Complete returns in the St. Louis County Republican direct primaries, held last night in the five townships to elect delegates to tomorrow’s conven- tion at Clayton, show that ‘‘Boss” Fred Essen will control 69 delegates and his opponent, Prosecuting Attorney Row- land M. Johnston, 61, with 16 votes doubtful. Of the 16 doubtful votes 6 are in the Clayton precinct and 6 in the Wellston precinct. The totals, are: Central Township—E&sen, ston, 34; doubtful 11. Midland Township—Essen, ston, 4; doubtful, 3 Meramec Township—Essen, 12, ston, 0. sonhomme Township—Essen, Johnston, 13; doubtful, 1, Carondelet Township—Essen, 10; ston, 10; doubtful, 1. The ‘total number of delegates in the convention will be 146. Of the 16 doubtful votes Johnston will have to get 13 to win. ‘ In the Clayton district the. Essen mass meeting was regarded as regular. It gave him 8 votes. The Wellston Johns- ton meeting was regular, giving him 6 votes. In each precinct there is a con- test, If he loses all of the other doubtful votes Johnston will have to win both these conotests to seat his delegation. The contests will be in Wellston and Clayton precincits, which have a total of 14 votes. The winner of both or pos- sibly one of these contested precincts will probably dominate tomorrow's county convention at Clayton. Essen is pledged to an uninstructed delegation to the Chicago convention, while Johnston, who has the support of yeorge Autenrieth and the Law En forcement League, wants instructions for Taft. There will be a contest in tomorrow's convention over the seating of the compromise delegation from the Clay- ton precinct, the anti-Essen faction hav- ing held a convention at 2:30 o’clo¢k in which a straight anti-Essen delegation was chosen. In accordance with a compromise ef- fected Friday night by Essen’ with George and Albert Autenrieth, who have been actively directing the anti- Essen fight, a convention was held at Clayton at noon and the eight delegates were equally divided between the two factions. When Johnston arrived in Clayton yesterday morning, he said he would not “stand for’’ a compromise in any section, and declared his intention ot calling a second convention. Convention Hour Changed. At 1 o’clock Johnston supporters and members of the Law Enforcement Asso- ciation, who are for the time being lined up with Johnston, began to arrive in Clayton. The hour originally selected by the Central Committee for the hold- ing of the Clayton convention was 2:30. After this call was published the hour was changed by Essen, who said he thought 12 o’clock would be a more convenient hour. The original plan of the forcement people and the Johnston-Au- nrieth forces was to protest against the holding of the noon convention, and if their protest was overruled to hold their meeting at 2:30. The noon con- vention was a lovefeast, the compro- mise delegation being selected with a murmur of protest. Among the friends of Johnston who got in late was Mark Gumberts of Lou- isiana Club fame. He received his first news of the compromise when he got off the car at Clayton, and at once began one of the verbal attacks on county politicians for which he has become noted. He declared his intention of ex- tirpating the entire Clayton “ring,’ and said he would begin by participating in a protesting convention if he could muster the forces. Thirteen Republicans Gather. Thirteen Republicans were soon gath- ered together and the protesting conven- tion was called to order by P. T. Dwyer at 2:30 p. m. Gumberts took no part in the meeting further than to make a mo- tion to send the delegates to the coun- ty convention ‘‘uninstructed for Taft.” There seemed to be a general mmisun- derstanding of the meaning .of the mo- tion and after a short conference with a friend near him Mark explained that he wished the convention to indorse Taft, but to send the delegates to the county convention uninstructed. The motion carried. Eight anti-Essen dele- gates were chosen, three of them hav- ing been previously selected on the com- promise ticket The anti- Rares Republicans had ev- erything their own way at Maplewood last night.

MILLION A YEAR FOR MR. EDISON FROM PICTUR . er End of Patent Suits’ Gives Inventor Control of All Films.

NEW YORK, Feb. 15.—Opposition to the Edison patents covering the produc- tion of moving pictures in every detail This became known through an announcement that the moving picture manufacturing interests and the concerns which rent machines have combin.d with the Edison compa- uy to readjust the cond .ions under which the business is been conducted. The combination represents upward of $50,000,000 of capital iInvesteqd and sev- eral thousand places where moving pic- tures are on exhibition. To Thomas A. Edisou the abandon- ment of all opposition to “his patents means an income estimated at from $200,000 to $1,000,000 a year. The presi- dent of one of the la:sest moving pic- pure manufacturing concerns in the country said yesterday that $1,000,000 would be a conservative estimate of the annual return to Mr. Edison on the moving picture pate : now that his rights are conceded. Every Patent Upheld. Years ago, before the moving picture business had grown to anything like its present proportions, some manufactur- ers began to contest the Edison pat- ents, first those on the camera with which. the pictures are taken and later those on which the various parts of the machine, but all of the patents were uDp- held. That put opposition out of the ques- tion, and a convention has just ad- journed in Buffalo, at which the manu- facturing and the renting men agreed to a joint submission. There is vo defi- nite ogganization, and it is said that there is not likely to be a combina- tion of manufacturing firms. The con- trol which the Edison people will exer- cise over all the moving picture con- cerns will be for the present the con- necting link. Eliminate Cheaper Shows. One result of this combination will be, it is said, a cleaning up of the lower class of moving picture shows In| this and otber cities. ine Edison interests are said to be determined to force the issue on this line. The manufacturers are willing to aid in this, for the elimi- nation of the cheaper class of moving picture shows will prevent the use of worn-out films and machinery. and will drive more patronage to the better class shows and lead them to buy bet. tis equipment. The manufacturing firms !n the com- bination are the Thomas A. Edison Co, of Orange, N. J.; the American Vita. graph Co. of this city, ‘silg & Co., and Kalen & Co.. of Chicago, Pathe & Mel.

Special to the Post4pispatch. SAN FRANCISCO, Feb. 15.—The mu- nicipal health MyCiogHies today raised the bounty on rits to 50 cents a head for females ahd 25 cents for males, This records One more step in the war that is being waged to* exterminate bubonic plague in San Francisco. The war began upon the shortly after the earthquake in April, 1906, that the dread disease of India had found a foothold in the city. Five cents a h@jd was offered for rats in the beginning and gradually the bounty has been increased until it reached its high- est figure today. Science has demonstrated that the bu- bonic plague ig a disease for which ro-$ deits are alone responsible. Passed As- sistant Surgeon Rupert Blue of the United States Marine Hospital Service, who is in charge of the medical forces directing the campaign against the plague, said in-a recent circular to the residents of San Francisco: “Science has abundantly proven that plague is an epizootic of rats transmit- ted to'man by the bites of fleas and con- taminated clothing and food. It is fur- ther demonstrated that the surest and quickest way of eradicating the disease is to exterminate rats and other Vver- min,”

Chemist Can Make 7-Cent Gas by Burning Dried Grass With Limestone.

C. L. Holman, secretary of the La- clede Gas Co., was asked last night if the independents who are asking the city for a Jd-cent natural gas franchise cau make artificial gas for 75 cents 4 thousand feet, as they agree to do if their natural supply is inadequate. “] don't know what they can do,” said. Can the Laclede company make it for 75 cents a thousand feet?’ he was asl-ed. “ft don't - 4 Pan Ge * tbe he care to discuss that,” he Would Pipe the Gas. Those seeking tue iraucnise are James O. Rodgers and George A. Bolus of lola, Kan.; Dallas C. Beyers of Pittsburg, Willis B. Hale of Cleveland and George V. Reynolds of St. Louis. According to Mr. Reynolds their purpose is to pip- natural gas from Kansas and Oklahoma. Mr. Reynolds says that $16,000,000 will be spent in installing the system. The schedule of prices offered is as follows: Forty-fice cents per 1000 cubic feet for less than 20,000 feet; 40 cents for more than 20,000 and less than 50,000; 356 cents for quantities in excess of 50,000; 5 cents per thousand to be charged on delin- quent bills; 8 cents to be minimum charge for service after installation. The term of the franchise sought is 3 years. A bond of $25,000 is to be given within six months after the passage o! the bill. The work of laying the pipes is to begin within a year. A supply of gas is to be ready before the end of the chird year. ! ‘)ne-half of 1 per cent of the gross re- ceipts is-to be paid to the city. Free gas is to be furnished to the City Hall, City Hospital, Jail, Poorhouse, Insane Asy- lum and Female Hospital... Reserve Substitute Right. The right is reserved to substitute artificial gas if the natural product should not be adequate, but the com- pany binds itself not to charge more than 75 cents a thousand for the artifi- cial product. By burning dried grass with lime- stone, of which there is a*stratum 1600 feet thick under Missouri, Charles H. ider, a self-made chemist, says he has made illuminating and fuel gas at a cost of less than 3 cents a thousand feet. Laclede gas costs $1 a thousand. Rider calculates that his gas can be sold with profit at 7 cents a thousand. Rider has a laboratory at 211 South Seventh street, where he amuses him- self with chemical experiments. His discovery of the practicability of mak- ing gas from limestone and any form of carbon—coal, charcoal, sawdust or dried grass—was made by accident while he was investigating a new method of smelting nickel. Forms Useful Product. Limestone is calcium carbonate. When subjected to heat, it forms the univer- \slly useful product known as burned lime, and carbon dioxide, the gas ex- haled from the lungs. From the carbon burning in Rider’s retort with the lime- stone, the gas picks up another atom of carbon, making carbon monoxide, or fuel gas. A smal] admixture of methane gives light-giving properties. The common method of making gas is by the distillation of coal. Rider believes his discovery, which he. has patented :n America and several] for- eign countries, will revolutionize the industry. Limestone, of which there are inexhaustible stores in the earth’s crust. can be bought for 25 cents a ton. Burned with about 165 pounds of coal, a ton of limegtone yields 16,- 000 feet of gas, with a quantity of burned lime, worth $3.50 a ton, as a byproduct. Chemical analysis has shown Rider’s gas to be almost free from water and therefore of unusual excellence for use in engines. Rider began to study chemistry as a boy, on a New York farm. He never has studed the subject in school, but made it his profession after diligent private application.

American Marooned on Desert Isle to Be Sought by Fleet Ship.

Jeffs Refused to Accompany Remainder of Crew to Rescue Point.

Special to the Post-Dispatch. WASHINGTON, Feb. fleet commanded 1.—When by Admiral Evans reaches Callao, Peru, he will re: ive or- ders from the Secretary of the Navy tu designate a ship frum his armada to proceed to the Island Indefatigable of the Galapagos group, about a thpusarid miles west in the Pacific Ocean off th» coast of Ecuador, to rescue Fred Jeffs of Norwalk, Conn., a sailor, who is a maroon by reason of h‘s own stubborn- ness. Jeffs’ sister, Mrs. Henry G. Claredge of Norwalk, has applied to the United States to rescue her brother from the inhospitable island on which the oniy fare for a stranded mariner is the meai of turtles and pelicans, with a scanty supply of water. $ His Exile 2 Mystery. Why Jeffs chose his self exile on the island is a mystery, and his sister Is not able to give the Government any enlightenment on the subject. Her in- formation on the subject cf his having been marooned comes from his _ ship- mates. Jeffs was a member of the crew of the barque Alexandra out of Newcastle, New South Wales, deserted near In- defatigable Islar. May 20 last, in a calm while the crew was ashore looking for water. The crew escaped with the exception of Jeffs, who preferred to stay on the island, and the captain, E. Peterson, after he and the rest of the crew were rescued, reported the strange preference of Jeffs to stay on the soli tary island in the Pacific to escaping with his mates. Congressman Gives Order. The plignt of Jeffs was reported to the Consul-General at Guayaquil, Ecuador. by Peterson, who sent word to Mrs. Claredge. Her husband got into com- munication with Congressman Hill of Connecticut, who asked that Rear-Ad- miral Evans be commanded to send one of his ships to take Jeffs off his solli- tary island. Indefatigable Island is far from the beaten track of ships. Jeffs, if he is still alive, and it is belicved ne is because of his spirit and the fact that there is food and water on the island, must have led the -..ie of a Hobinson Crusoe since he was deserted by his comrades of the Alexandra last November. Jeffs might have been home with the other members of the crew, but for some reason unknown to them he pre- ferred to remain on the island. The ship, on which he was an able seaman, left. Newcastle, New South Wales, Nov. 26, 1906. She was loaded with coal and was seaworthy and making good way until she came within the zone of the Galapagos Islands when she became be- calmed. For many days the ship drifted about without making way, while the provi- sions got lower and lower and became exhausted. Boats Were Lost. For days they drifted upon the glassy seas trying to make Chatham Island, and when they were entirely without water were compelled to land on the uninhabited and unknown Indefatigable Island. This was May 2, and here the crew of the Alexandria lost her boats and was unable to return to the ship. For several days the men wandered about the island living on turtles and pelicans, and at last found drinkable water. Jeffs proved to be a mutineer. He was willing to share provisions, but would not work collecting food and drink. When his mates broke camp he would not join them, and it was due to this that when the sailing vessel Isidra Jacinta, commanded by Captain Bohnhoff, was sent out by the Nor- wegian Consul at Iquique to look for the crew on Galapagos Island that Jeffs was left behind. Intended to Return. When Jeffs’ stubbornness was de- scribed to Captain Bohnhoff he said that he could not wait, as favorable winds we: blowthe off shore, but he would return for the seaman. When the Isidra Jacinta strove to return to the island strong shore currents bore her off and she was compelled to sail for Guayaquil, where she landed Nov. 8, 1907. It is hoped that Jeffs will be found alive. He is a strong character, stub- born and self-willed, and it is believed that he has been able to make the best of conditions after the manner of Rob- inson Crusoe, and has been able to sub- sist on pelican and turtles. It is not known what ship Rear Ad- miral Evans will send to the island for the marooned man. That will be a matter left to his own discretion.

BUSINESS OF UNDERTAKERS FALLS OFF WHILE CRADLE MAKERS ARE KEPT JUMPING Vital Statistics for Week Refute Declaration That Present Weath- er Is Unhealthful. The vital statistics for last week don’t confirm the thousands of declarations that the “‘unseasonable weather is just terribly unhealthful.’’ The undertakers of the city don’t cor- roborate the statement, either. Thtir business declined in proportion to the decrease of 41 deaths, compared with the mortality of the previous seven days, during which 282 persons died. The men who make the cradles, how- ever, had more work than the Stork has impesed on them in several weeks. There were 349 young persons for whom to provide, against 29% in the seven days ending Feb. 8. Marriage licenses were issued to 118 couples. That meant a gain of seven documents and $10.50 cash compared with the previous week. There was a large decrease in the number of deaths from pneumonia last week. Mortality from consumption was somewhat higher than during the pre- vious seven days. Four persons died of the different forms of meningitis and two from erysipelas. Six suicides, two homicides and two deaths by accident were reported last week. In the week ending Feb. 8 there were three suicides and 11 accidental deaths. No homicides were recorded.

Few People Know How Useful It Is In Preserving Health and Beauty. Costs Nothing To Try.

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 threat from the poison of catarrh. All druggists sell charcoal in one form or another, but probably the best charcoal and the most for the money is in Stuart’s Charcoal Lozenges; they are composed of the finest powdered Willow charcoal, and other harm|!ess antiseptics in tablet form or rather in the form of large pleasant tasting loz- enges, the charcoal being mixed with honey. The daily use of these lozenges will soon tell in a much 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 — A Buffalo physician, in speaking of the benefits of ‘meveeak eave: “fad: vise Stuart’s Charcoal Lozenges to patients suffe and bowels,

MODEL SEWER SYSTEM Council Is Expectedto Spend $131,000 to Make the | City Beautiful.

If the plans provided for in the ordi- nances for paving to be presented by the Belleville local board of improvements to the City Council at its next meeting are carried out the principal thorough- fares in the city will be paved with vit- rified brick. Four years ago there were but ll blocks of paved streets in Belleville and practically no sewer system. Main street was then paved for a distance of nine blocks and South Illinois street two blocks. Since that time over 10 miles of streets have been paved, and sewers covering practically the entire city have been installed at a total cost of over $650,000. Cr6ss Streets Being Improved. Race, Richland, Spring, Illinois, High, Jackson, Church and Abend streets, the principal, north and south streets, have all been paved and the new ordinances provide for the paving of the most-used cross streets. B street has been paved, as have Freeburg and Centerville ave- nues, two of the main arteries of traffic from the country. The work of paving Mascoutah avenue and Charles street is under way and plans for the paving of Lebanon avenue are completed. Model Method of Handling Refuse. For the work of paving and sewering that has been completed $487,965 have been expended, while the work now in course of constructiqn will add $177,885 to this amount. The estimated cost of the improvements to be recommended by the Board of Improvements is $131,047. The septic tank system of disposing of sewage is used in Belleville, and a huge intercepting sewer was constructed to drain the city. The system cost $75,000 and has been pronounced by sanitary engineers as one of the best fin the country. A huge septic tank south of the town reduced all sewage to an odor- less and colorless liquid. All lateral sew- ers in the city empty into the intercept- ing sewer.

Harmon Advocates Donating One Bushel in Every 143. John F. Harmon, pastor of the First M. E. Church In East St. Louis, and a worker tin the Anti-Saloon League, suggests that the farmers of the United States donate one bushel ef corn out of every 143 bushels raised for the relief of the poor.. This, he says, is the proportion of corn sold by the farmers to the distillers. The local option workers say this would not only aid the temperance movement, but would extend the hand of charity in a good cause. The sug- gestion was made in answer to sta- tistics given in huge posters provided by the Personal Liberty League. In a weekly paper edited by Mr. Har- mon, he says: ‘‘The saloon posters show that the saloon men are breaking their hearts weeping over the farmers for fear they will have no market for their corn when the distillers have to Close up. “They would have you think that the only useful purpose to which corn can be put is to make booze. “Only one bushel out of every 143 raised is sold to the distiller. “The rats and mice eat that much in the fields, shocks and pens, and yet the farmers manage to keep out of the rhouses. ‘The farmer had far better give that one bushel in every 14 to feed the poor who now cry for bread rather than sel] it to the distiller at any price. The farmers are against the saloon and will stay against it until it is cast into hell, where it belongs. Let us make food out of the corn for the poor. —_

Take, for instance, Peruna. There are plenty of people who are willing to say Peruna is this and that, who never have tasted Peruna, and have never known anything about its effects upon the human system. There are people who say, and prob- ably believe, that Peruna is used as a beverage by some people. It would be the easiest thing in the world to show the falsity of such a belief. Let anyone who reads this go to the drug store and purchase a bottle of Peruna. If, after attempting to use it as a beverage or to take it in doses sufficient to produce anything like in- toxication, if after putting it to this test such a person is still of the opin- ion that Peruna is a disguised alcoholic drink, he will be warranted in making such a statement. Practically, Peruna cannot, be so used. Anyone who knows anything about Peruna by personal use knows that Peruna is a medicine. The very label on the bottle, giving the rincipal active ingredients, furnishes indisputable proof that Peruna is a medicinal compound. We will be will- ing to guarantee that no normal son can or will use Peruna as a erage. If anyone thinks this remedy can be so used one trial will be suffi- cient to disabuse his mind. Peruna is a great and useful family medicine, It is used in multitudes @F homes. .It has become a standarG remedy for varfous petty ailments i the home. It is especially useful 3 climatic diseases.

: URNS SHOCKS — ) BRITISH BY HIS ASY VICTORY

SD Lp id Americans, However, Could Not Give ') Palmer a Chanee, Says Siler--For- eign Invasion Revives Im- ~ portance of Side Bet. —- ~~ ~=SC~*?'

BY GEORGE SILER. ‘The Veteran Referee.) CHICAGO, Feb. 15. OMMY BURNS added another world’s championship aspi- rant victim to his list on Monday night when he snuffed out Jack Palmer’s pugilistie lights in the fourth round of P their scheduled 20-round battle. The result was a foregone conclusion when the match was ar- \ . ranged. but the hurn edness of it was not, as Jack was well trained ‘and therefore fit to give Tommy a longer argument. ‘Furthermore. it was thought Burns, because of its importance, would go about the job cautiously and beat his man without laying himself open to . Acording to reports, however, Burns slashed away right from the outset, a lucky punch that would be apt jrant must : Doctors, as they surely conceded him a chance, else they would not have furnished him the. backing. We in this country havn't the least idea why Tommy wanted to get the ess ul- ae - that it behooved him, as the cham- 7 pion, to win in much quicker time. og OWFVER, the affair is over with i H and Burns ts receiving credit (not in this country) as being “the greates; glove fighter in the “world. The Englishmen admired the manner in which Tommy han- their champion, “Gunner” Moir, and the unprejudiced set was not sur- ri at his easy victory over their best man. There is no doubt of the Britons, especially those ound the money for Palmer, did dn this country, where side bets rare- - ty enter into affairs of the kind, and ' when they do they generally are much > tess than the loser’s end of the purse. @BRICAN fighters, as a rule, will . enter into’ a ma&teh with a known superior fighter, hoping, 3 ¥ ¢ of course, to win, but with their eyes “on the main chance—the loser’s end of the money _invoived. That is termed American commercialism and it is played for all it 1s worth. That system came into vogue short- ‘ after the Bob Fitzsimmons-Jim Corbett battle at Carson City, Nev., at ‘the time the game secured a firm foothvid in various large cities throughout the United - States, es- ‘pecially in the East, where the box me, Tevetnts made it an important factor. In the first -heavyweight champion- ship battle under the Marquis of Queensberry rules, that between John LL. Sullivan and James J. Corbett at New Orleans in 1892, all the money, Side bet and vurse, went to the win- ner. In the lightweight and feather- th ht championship battles between dack McAuliffe and Billy Mvyer and Georze Dixon and Jack Skelly. re- Spectively. which were fought at the @ame time and place, the money went game as in the big event. ~ Corbett took down the side bet and tne purse when he was declared the Winner in his fight with Charley tehell and lost all when he went wn to defeat before Fitzsimmons at arson City. In the battle between: Fitzsimmons and Peter Maher in Mexico, the mon- @y was split $9600 to the winner and $1000 to the loser. There were no n eplits, or dividing the purses on ‘the basis of 60 per cent to the win- mer and 40 per cent to the loser, in ‘those davs, as the fighters entered in- ; the matches with no thought of @ommercialism. ‘HILADELPHIA JACK O'BRIEN is crédited with being the origi- $ nal commercial pugilist, but that honor really belongs to Bob Fitzsim- mons. As champion he demanded 75 per - @ent.of the purse, win, lose or draw, a first time he matched with Jim | es.” The latter at that time had ‘nO reputation to speak of. Two years : us, on his first appearance in the , he failed_to stop Bob Armstrong in 10 rounds. His contract upon that on was to stop Arnistrong and Steve O'Donnell in 10 rounds each. He » took on Bob first and injured his hand, * #0 it was claimed, and that ended the en he came East to fight Fitz- gimmons for the championship he was RB much improved man, still Fitz did take him seriously. In fact, he oC to bet the writer two quarts of | Wine that he would win in three rounds. . Asked why he wanted to win in three unds when he had 20 rounds to do he replied: I let him stay longer than that he people wil! think I’m aystiff.”’ t was Bob's opinion of Jeffries as ; before. the contest. the - money regardiess of ihe outcome of _ the battle. That makes Bob the daddy commercial pugilism. S ship battles died out with the Car- ) son City affair and they really Were not necessary to secure a match thereafter, as the big gate receipts made ail fighters with drawing powers wel- , fo @ try at the championship. had nothing to lose and a large end of the gate money to gain. Jeffries followed in the footsteps ivan and Corbett in regard to bets he would not have so many s pionshi victories to his credit. _ Surns was forced into the idea of it by » Bi Squires, and as the Englishmen ipl bondi to it, at least in big events, Tom- "> my is taking up the game where Cor- Pett Was compelled to quit it.

ATTLING NELSON may have shot : his bolt as a Class A fighter, but he can give lessons in watchmak- ing to boys who are supposed to tower over him as a fighter. He also has it on the other fighters in persistency; fead- ing, or trying ‘to lead, followers of the game to believe he still is a topnotcher. Generally when a fighter who at one time in his career was a strong aspirant for championship honors gets his trim- mings from men who are not considered in the same class, he starts down the toboggan grasping everything within reach in this descent. He is honest enough to admit he does not belong to the upper grade; but not so with Bat. In fact, he still labors under the imprés- sion he ‘s as good a fighter as Cham- pion Joe Gans, and is arranging his matches imbued with that idea. When Jimmy Britt beat him in 2 rounds last July he attributed his de- feat to overfeeding a few hours before entering the ring. He did not give Britt credit for the victory. That battle made Jimmy outshine him a bit, but when Gans happened along shortly after and forced Jimmy to quit in five rounds he practically sent Bat into eclipse. Neison’s defeat at the hands of the man whom Gans showed such vast su- neriority over did not lessen the Dane's fistic opinion of himself and he went after Joe for a return match as if the battles between him and Britt and the latter and Gans never had taken place. Not only that, but he demanded from Gans an exceptionally big piece of the purse. Failing to convince the champion he Was entitled to a big chunk of the money, he concluded to fight his way to a position which would compel him to heed his demands. He began by beating Jack Clifford, one of his old sparring chums, then in turn was going to beat Unholz and Packey McFarland. He made a bad mess of it with Un- holz, and when offered a match with McFarland, although beaten by a com- paratively unknown, he demanded a 20 per cent bonus to match. Now Bat is matched to fight Britt, and compelled the latter to fork over an extra 5 per cent for agreeing to fight him. Bat may be all in as a fighter, but not as a matchmaker. He got his first touch of high finance at Goldfield when he received $22,500 out of a $33,500 purse, win or lose or draw, and he was so impressed with it he cannot get out of the habit. IHNNY COULON will be called upon to defend his bantamweight championship title against Cooney Kelly at Peoria Thursday night. The littie fellow has agreed to take on the Streator lad at 107 pounds ringside, w ch will handicap hii at least four pounds. His best weight is 103. Johnny has fought six times during the last year and against only two op- ponents, “Kid’’ Murphy, whom he de- feated _ for the championship, and ‘Young’ Fitzgerald, at that time con- sidered the best bantam in the Middle West. He beat Fitz in each fight, lost the first to Murphy on a close decision, and beat him handily in the other con- test. His coming opponent has been in the gaifie a number of years, and at one time had the reputation of being a boss knocker-out. : Besides having the advantage in weight, he also has it on Johnny in height, reach and experience. important factors in a battle between little. fel- lows.

_—o——___- BRITISH VARSITIES HAVE COUNTER PROPOSITION FOR THE AMERICAN CHALLENGERS Oxford and Cambridge Decline Athletic Proposition and Sug- gest July Meet. OXFORD, England, Feb. 15.—The committees of the athletic clubs of Ox- ford and Cambridge universities have decided that under the present circum- stances it is impossible to accept the challenge sent by the Intercollegiate As- sociation of Amateur Athletes of Amer- ica for an international track and field meeting between teams representing the universities and colleges of the United States and those of Great Britain to follow the Olympic games in London next summer. The two clubs have under considera- tion, however, a proposal for a meeting between teams from Oxford and Cam- bridge and Harvard and Yale, which, it has been suggested, should be held in London in July. ‘Among the reasons given for the in- ability of the English clubs to accept the American challenge are that there is not sufficient time to select the Brit- ish representatives, and that there is a congestion of athletic meetings in 1908 and it is impossible to secure at. such short notice adequate men who are in all respects bona-fide students and ama- teurs. ae The letter of the Brit'sh bs®o the secretary of the etennitine- sutienenaede

A gallery of the club members wit- nessed the match, which proved spec- tacular all the way and undoubtedly created more enthusiasm among the fol- lowers ag well as to show them the pos- sibilities in the play. Play Is Fast and Snappy. The match was unusually fast and snappy, and though Boakes put up a strong game, he was plainly outclassed by the St. Louis man, Both appeared in the court shortly after 3 o’clock and tossed, Gardner winning and serving the first ball. From the start his play was fast and, jumping away in the lead, he never allowed Boakes to tie at any time, and won the first game by the score of 15 to 12. In the second game Gardner served the first ball and through his excellent play kept the serving position for the greater part of the game, The score stood at the end, 15 to 9. Bonkes Gets Speedy. The third time out Boakes displayed better form and the honors were even for a great part of the game, but Gard- ner was too skillful for him and won the third and deciding game by the score of 15 to 12 Though Boakes was outplayed from start to finish, he put up an excellent game, and his work when he did score was really more spectacular than Gard- ner’s. Almost every point he made was a difficult one. HASKINS, PENNSYLVANIA’S GREAT DISTANCE RUNNER, FAILURE AS A SCHOLAR Dropped by the University Be- cause of His Poor Scholastic Standing.

Swollen glands about the neck, brittle bones, weak eyes, pale, waxy complexions, running sores and ulcers and general poor health, are the usual ways in which Scrofula is manifested. In some cases the blood is so filled with the scrofulous germs and tuber- cular matter that, from birth, life is made miserable with suffering.

PITTSBURG BEATS DETROIT FOR 1909 BOWLING TOURNEY

i ad Smoky City Wins Hollow Victory By 102 to 59 —St Louis Men on the Showing Badly Alleys.

Special tc the Post-Dispatch. CINCINNATI, Feb. 15.—Pittsburg will entertain the A. B. C. and tournament next year, that town being awarded the plum at the final meeting of the con- gress held in the Grand Hotel this aft- ernoon. The vote was 102 to: 59; show- ing that the Michigan town was able to pull out only 39 votes ‘outside of its own city. It {ts believed these votes St. Paul delegates, with a sprinkling of Chicago and Indianapolis votes. Garry Herrmann was nominated for re-elec- tion and went through with a rush, the deleg*tes cheering him to the echo. Th ‘expected fight for places on the Executive Committee petered out at the last moment, and but two additional nominations were made, ‘‘Judge’’ How- ard of Chicago and Emil Schmitt of Cincinnati making bids for places. Rob- | ert H. Bryson of Indianapolis, Charles Barker of St. Louis, W. D. Alexander of Cincinnati all refused to let their names go before the convention, and it simplified matters greatly. Oratory for Pittsburg. The Pittsburg speakers were Attorney James O'Donnell and Congressman A, J. Burchfield, the latter making a bril- liantly witty speech, in which he played up the diplosoccus of the Carnegie Mu- seum as Pittsburs’s leading attraction. Replying to the insinuation that his town was “dry’’ on Sundays, he said he would anchor a steamboat in the middle of the Monongahela River and run a free ferry to it if necessary. The following officers were unanimously re-elected: President. August Herrmann of Cincinnati: first vice-president, E. D. Myers of Wasb- ington, . C.: second vice-president, Adam Hahn of Pittsburg; third vice-president, Fred Gosewisch of St. Paul: treasurer, Frank L. passsionD of. Ra ly secretary, Abraham , w ° Eicccntive Committes—L.. J.

Cincinnati: Judge Howard. Chicago. President Herrmann appointed H. Haager, Robert Bryson, J. W. McCor- mick, William D. Alexander and Sam Karpf as a conference cemmittee. Woodbury and Stoike of Chicago, who held the Canadian Bowling Association championship for two-men teams, de- feated Richter and Bigley of Louisville, the A. B. C. champions, in the two- men team championship contest this afternoon, by a score of 1155 to 1135. Woodbury and Stoike will meet Smith and Dunbar to decide the championship in this class. The latter earlier defeated Lee Ever- hardt and Tony Bozht, the Western champions, 1259 to 1066. Stoike pro- tested Smith and Dunbar as being tin- eligible because they were substitutes and not the real Eastern champions. St. Louis Scores Poor. A number of St. Louis men rolled _ in the minor events today, but none suc4 ceeded in making totals which are like- ly to break into the prize list. In the two-men event Qualey and Sanders were tl best with 1099. while Vande- water and Stokes got 1080. In the indi- viduals A. C. Jellison counted 588, while C. Stokes got 6572. Bob Menninger Sr. of Detroit, who leads the individuals with 669, had a couple of close calls, Charley Carlson of Chicago rolling into fourth place with 664, while W. Brink of this city counted 653 and is next. Kiene and Chalmers of Chicago, who lead the doubles with 1254, weré also in danger, Nelson and Mrosek of the same city counted 1245, which placed them rd. aga Canuck Champions. John Noonan, the Canadian champion, won the international championship in the singles by rolling 1656 pins, beating his nearest competitor, Marshall Levy of Indianapolis. All four men relled Noonan’s last series being the only flash of good form shown by any of the players. Scores: Noonan. Quebec, 480, 558, 590—1656. igcz, "peeetrert, Meats Maat ew . ona —— .

——— — CENTRAL TR HASKELL TEAM N CLOSE CAME Local Y. M. C. A. Outplays the Indians by Score of 37 to 31.

The Haskell Indians’ basket ball five fell before the Central Y. M, C, A. last night at the Association gymna- sium, the score standing 37 to 31 in favor of Central when the final whis- tle blew. A fiercer, harder game has never been played on the Central floor and a more interesting game from almost any standpoint seemed impossible. The Indians played rather roughly in the first half and Central was given many opportunities to make free throws, opportunities that Roe made good use of, the crack right forward having 18 points to his credit at the finish. His work at throwing goals was far above the average, he missing but two. Hardin of Central played an excellent game for his team also, having 17 points. The redmen played a wonderful game from the field, the most of their points coming from field goals. Their team work was fine and their play throughout was spectacular in the ex- treme. A number of goals were made from the center of the field, Means, the Haskel star, displaying fine form as a long-distance thrower. He made more points than all the rest of the team put together, having 20 of the 31 to his credit. The second team of the Central Y. M. Cc. A. met the North Presbyterian five in the preliminary game, Central winning, 29 to 10. The lineup and summary of Central-Haskell game follow: Haskell (31). Position. C. ¥. M. C. A.

YALE WINS HOCKEY HONORS Defeats Harvard, 3 to 2, for First Time in Several Years. Special to the Post-Dispatch. NEW YORK, Feb. 15.—Yale off the champtionship of the Intercol- legiate Hockey League tonight at the St. Nicholas Rink by outplaying and outstaving the Harvard seven. The score was 3 goals to 2. It was the first time the Elis had won the ice pennant since 1901, at which time they had been the victers for three years in succes- si the (4)

carried on. Seldom has the rink where so many notable hockey battles have been lost and won held so large and enthusiastic an assemblage. After the game the followers of the Blue of Yale swarmed on the ice and fairly mobbed the win- ners of a tough, uphill battle.

PETERS DEFEATS SANFORD IN THE ONE-MILE EVENT =

a Easy Winner in Big’ Roller Event When Exhaustion Seizes St. Louisan. After winning his semi-final heat for the one-mile roller —s champion- ship at the Jai Alai rink last night in record time for St. Louis, Earl San- ford, the diminutive local wonder, went wild when 4000 persons wildly cheered him in the final and skated himself into a state of complete exhaustion in eight laps, Rodney Peters, another local lad, going to the front and winning when Sanford toppled over. Sanford won his heat in 2:681-5, the former local record for the mile being 2:59, held by Harley Davidson. Little Sanford ran away with the first heat from the second lap on. Charles Williams of Boston closed fast, but Sanford won by five yards, with- out being pressed. oo ' Bacon Wins by a Yard. The second heat resulted in a good contest after the men got start on the fourth lap, when Frank Bacen of McKeesport, Pa., went to the” front and set the pace. Bacon won by about a yard from little Terrell Peters, who closed fast. In the third heat Wilson of Pittsburg set the pace for a time. On the sixth lap Jack Woodward of Johnstown, Pa., went to the front. He opened up quite a gap. On the tenth lap Rodney Peters caught him. Peters gained the lead, but swung wide, and Woodward was again in front. Again Peters got the lead, only to lose it, and Woodward finished first by about a half yard. In the final the first two men in each heat qualified. Sanford tried to get the lead at the start, but Williams set the pace for the first lap. Then Sanford jumped to the front and the crowd went wild. The more they yelled the faster Sanford went. Finally he was 16 yards to the good and seemed a certain win- ner, although he had been setting a terrific pace. Sanford’s Effort Too Much. On the atxth lap he started to slow up a bit and then Redney Peters started to come up out of fourth place. Peters is young, tall and thin, but when he got down and humped his back he fair- ly walked up to Sanford. Ear! tried hard and hung to Peters’ heels for half a lap, but wavered and fell heavily on the eighth lap. He was tempo y knocked out and was carried from the floor by two policemen. Outside of bruises and scratched he was practical- ly unhurt. Peters won by 12 yards from Bacon, who just managed to nose Williams eut for second money. Woodw fell on the second lap, but got up and contin- ued the race. Summaries: First heat--BDarl Sanford, Charles Williams, Boston, Conrad Holm, Davenport, 2m.

HOGS HOLD FAIRLY STEADY

Sheep Regain Decline, but Horses and Mules Show a Sharp Weakness. CATTLE—Receipts the past week were of good moderate numbers. A total of 16,800 head arrived, compared with 14,600 two weeks ago, 18,000 a month ago and 17,500 the corresponding week of last year. The beef steer trade has been handi- capped by a heavy supply at Chicago, and a sharp decline there was reflected on the loca] market. The decline here, however, has been slight, and a dime loss will cover any deficit compared with two weeks ago, and, if anything, the large portion of the supply sold a shade lower. The movement has been fairly active, but plain qualitied beeves have moved rather slowly, while tidy, well-bred kinds have been taken readily at the prices. Choice fat 139)-pound steers topped the market at $5.70. A large number of good fat steers, 1150@ 1400 pounds, sold at $5.25@5.45, while the bulk of the medium to — useful kill- ers sold between $4.75 ‘the butcher heifer trade ruled In ac- tive condition throughout the week at full steady prices. Bulk of the offer- ings were a desirable class of good to choice grade between $4.15@4.65, including fancy kinds at £5@5.2. and most sales between $3.35@3.90 for light fleshed and medium classes. While the demand for cows has been particularly active at all times, values did not average over 10c higher than the previous week. Buyers wanted them at the prices, however, and the supply has been sold in Yery good season. Cnoice fat kinds topped the market at $4.60 and the bulk of the medium to good fat grades sold at $3.65@4.25. Most of the cutters sold around $2.65@3, and canners largely at $2.25. The bull trade remains on a steady basis. The calf market, while active, is not as strong as last week by 25c. Best calves are selling at $7.75. The stocker and feeder market has been handicapped by soft weather. Buy- ers want the cattle, but are waiting until the ground is in better condition. However, prices have not declined more than 10@15e with two weeks ago, and there has been enough inquiry prevalil- ing even with the unsatisfactory condi- tion of the weather to absorb the sup- ply in good season. Well bred fleshy feeders sold at $4.60-and most of the Ct} stockers and feeders sold at $3.9@ { While the Southern cattle trade has been influenced by the weaker con- ditions prevalent the price basis shows very little change with the previous period. The extreme decline can be covered by a dime and very few have sold at that concession. Among the sales were tidy, well-bred Oklahoma corn-fed steers that sold at $5.35, the. best that has been here in some time. Bulk of the offerings were meal-fed Texas, tops bringing $4.90 and the bulk selling at $4.35@4.75. Grass steers brought $4.15 of fair flesh and coarse quality. A load of good cows sold at $2.65, otherwise what few cows and heifers here were from Arkansas and Mississippi and of a canner and cut- ter sort, selling at soy The bull trade is fully steady. ost of the bulls ae ood fat kinds and are selling at Hogs Prices Are Steady. While no day last week was there an extra large supply of hogs on sale the total for the week amounted to around -60,000 head, which is a good moderate supply. While there was a lot of good hogs on sale and the qual- ity averaged full as d as usual, there was also a whole lot of pigs and lights on sale that were from Arkansas and Southern Missouri and most of them were on the common order. No great change was noted during the week in prices, but the market on ‘Mon. day was lower, the top being $4.45 and the bulk of the fair to good hogs sold at $4.32%@4.40.

NEWS BEARISH

Corn Relatively Steadier Than Finer Grain, Due to Unfavor- able Weather.

In view of the genera) contraction in the commercial situation, both here and abroad, and the very bearish set of con- ditions prevailing, the bulk of the op- erators in the grain markets of the country considered, the existing levels of wheat unwarrantably high, and the selling side was very popular all last week. The market was in a technically weak posit’on, as the shorts have nearly all covered, and there is a quite large long interest still out. Local prices re- ceded steadily and at the close showed losses of 2%@3\c for the week. Statistics Again Bearish. All the arithmetic of the grain mar- ket seemed to favor the bears at the start, except possibly the somewhat smaller receipts. World's shipments were again above expectations, and there was a further increase of over 3,- 000,000 bu in wheat and flour on passage. Then, too, very weak and depresged mar- kets were the rule abroad, Liverpool and the continental bourses sending shaply lower quotations and practically no workable bids for export wheat. Crop advices from Europe were especially bearish in tone, good weather and fa- vorable prospects being general. Ar- gentine continued to flood Europe with wheat at sharply reduced prices and gz00d offerings also came from Aus- tralia, which helped to effectually squelch any demand from abroad for American wheat. Weather Is Not Good, Climatie conditions in the winter belt were rather trying, but not really dan- gerous and the outlook was generally hopeful. Insects are still being report- ed in large numbers, but their potency as a bu!) feature has not assumed im- portant proportions as yet. Offerings of fresh wheat from the country were moderate and receipts at this and other winter wheat markets, as well as the supplies here, showed somewhat of a falling off. Spring wheat, however, continues to come into the Northwest- ern markets in large quantities and the veash markets there were generally dull and weak, with supplies on the _ in- crease, though any large piling up there was precluded by the good business be- ing done by the mills. Heavy Pressure on Prices. There was liberal selling both for long and short account, quite heavy pressure being calied out by the slug- gish and weak markets in Europe, iarge increases in supplies there, the virtual lack of an export demand, the small amount of wheat daily cleared, and the bearish domestic situation, Aft times there was some covering among the shorts on which occasions the, mar- ket became nervous and irregulaf, but there was not much of a recovery at any time, and prices receded steadily. Argentine was the feature in wheat on the last two days, the enormous eéex- ports from this country—almost 2,000,000 bu above the previous record—affecting the markets of the world. As prices continued to move downward some signs of a moderate foreign demand be- gan to appear and some of the shorts took profits at the end of the week. The close was firm at reactions of about a cent from the low point, but showed net losses for the week. May wheat closed 3%c lower at 94%c, and July 2%c lower at 87%c. There was no demand of any conse- uence for cash wheat on the first few ays, but offerings were also light and prices, though somewhat easier, were relatively steadier than the futures. Statistical News. World’s shipments of wheat were 12,- 096,000 bu, against 11,312,000 bu last week and 10,532,000 bu a year ago. The do- mestic visible supply of wheat de- creased 435,000 bu, and now amounts to 46,276,000 bu, compared with a decrease of 289,000 bu, with 44,668,000 bu in ht a ws 08 « th SREP os is Pe POPEATER Ri re mts

Corn Only Fraction Lower. Corn prices, though dragged down fractionally by wheat, showed a estead- ier tone than the latter grain, good sup- port being evident at times on the soft and very unfavorable weather throughout the entire belt. Bullish feel- ing and scattered buying was also caused by right firm corn markets abroad, but the bulls seemed to lack confidence, and cal prices ed slowly in quiet markets. Interior offer- ings of corn were liberal, with the movement on the increase, and it was reported that the shipping demand from the East ts very backward. Lit- tle export demand for corn was re- ported, but the current amount being cleared daily from the seaboard was quite large. There was not much activity in the local future market and May corn closed %c lower at 57% and July 4%@%e lower at 57%@658c. Cash corn was in slow demand at this market and prices generally ruled at rather easy levels. World's shipment of corn were 2,- 478,000 bu against 3,316,000 bu last week and 2,967,000 bu a year ago. The do- meastic visible supply of corn increased 1,584,000 bu, now amoamting to 8,12,- 0) bu and the world’s visibie increased 2.555,000 bu. Corn on ocean passage decreased 274,00 bu.

The Wednesday market was another 5c higher and the top was $4.55, but prices were lower the latter part of the week and closed with the top at $4.35 and the bulk selling at $5.221%4@5.30.

Most of the arrivals were good quality, but there was also a few lvads on sale that were not as fat as they ought to have heen. The market was steady on Monday but 10@16c lower Tuesday, but this loss, however, was regained Wednes- day and there has been no material change since, so that the week closed on about the same basis as the close of the previous week. Lambs sold from %6.50@7, a g00d many at 86.66 @ 6.75, while the yearlings sold from $5.60@56.90 and sheep from $4.75@ 5.40. Several loads of good Western wethers were on eale and they al! brought $5.25. Horses and Mules Weak. Weakness in the tone of the horse trade, influenced by a curtailment in demand from all quarters, character- ized the market the past week. Re- ceipts on the other hand have been liberal and the movement draggy on commercial classes. The decline on Eastern horses of last week was again repeated and if changed in any respect show further weakness. Lit- tle offerings for the Southern de- mand are also sharply lower, with the general clearance effected on a $156 to $20 lower basis. The past week developed a weaker feeling in the mule trade. The re}- ative proportion of supply and de- mand ruled out of harmony and val- ues fluctuated to a lower plane, The movement of the supply was slow at the decline as dealers Were stocked up to requirements and did not seem dis- posed to take any long chances on the future.

Statutes and laws are still transmitted like an cternal sickness of the race —Goethe. ‘This quotation heads the first of a se- ries of pamphlets combating prohibition which are being distributed by the Mis- souri and Southérn Illinois division of the National German-American Alli- ance. ‘ Prohibition is unconstitutional, accord- ing to the arguments of one of. the pamphlets, because it interferes with what the Constitution terms man’s “‘in- alienable right to the pursuit of happi- ness.’’ Sunday “‘lids,’’ it is asserted, de- feat the censtitutional amendment _re- garding freedom of religion. Blue laws are obsolete, it is urged, because they were framed 50 years ago to meet the needs of a scattered and rural civiliza- tion. The campaign for prohibition, of which Judge allace is declared to be the head in this State, is denounced as impatient, abusive and intolerant, evi- dencing all the characteristics of chronic fanaticism.’” “Sound reason demands temperance,’’ says one of the pam- phiets. “Prohibition ‘is rahk intemper- woe kt f peaking of the “hypocrisy engen- dered by prohibition,” it is stated that

Official, Tells How He Caught Soldier.

BODY HIDDEN ON SHIP

Delaf in Sailing Led to Dis- covery of Death of Ameri- can Girl.

Benn Fell, a former official of the Missouri Athletic Club, just returned from a year’s sojourn in China, told a nuntber of old friends at the club yes- terday how he aided in the arrest and extradition of William H. Adsetts, an American soldier, hanged last Novem- ber in Hongkong for murdering Ger- trude Dayton, a American gir. Fell’s connection with the case came about through his serving as United States Vice-Consul at Chefoo for sev- eral months, having taken that position after a business mission which took him to China failed. ‘‘Adsetts killed the girl in a hotel at Hongkong,’’ Fell related, “and then packed her body in a trunk. He made some excuse for her disappearance, and managed to take the trunk out of the hotel and put it aboard a mail steamer, the Monteagle, bound for Seattle. In- stead of boarding the Monteagle him- self, he took a boat for Shanghai. Delay Led to Capture. “Adsetts might have escaped if the Monteagle had started out with the trunk, for it would have been necessary to bury the body at sea, but the ship was delayed in starting, and the odor to be made. When the girl’s chopped- up body was found, the trunk was taken ashore and an investigation, @tart- ed that showed it came from Adsetts’ room in the hotel. “The British _authorities telegraphed to Shanghai for the arrest of Adsetts, but he eluded the police there and took another steamer for Chefoo. “Then the British colonial officers wired their Consul at Chefoo. He noti- fied us. We knew Adsetts. At least, I had met him. He had been a Sergeant in the legation guard at Peking, and had married a California girl with some money, whom he met at _ Tientsin. Leaving the army, he and his wife came He from the trunk caused an investigation. CHURCH NOTICES. CHURCH OF THE MESSIAH—Cor- ner Union boulevard and Morgan street. Rev. John W. Day.

In every case it came out he got their money and robbed them and left them to starve or be taken back by their par- 8. vite Witzhoff was a showy piano player and a good story teller. His tales of experience in Europe were always fascinating, and while talking he looked straight at his listeners with his large, luminous, oriental black eyes. Sympathy was one of his trump cards. It made no difference what the girl's religion was. If she was 4 Catholic, so was he. If she was @ Spiritualist, he tipped tables and made rappings. If she was a Methodist, he exhorted in the prayer meetings and led in_the singing. When a fair young Jewess fell into his net he was correct to the letter in his religious observances and went to the Synagogue. Gets $1200-—Departs. Miss Anna Parkhill of Brooklyn was married to the Doctor in Sep- tember, 1904. After the honeymoon the bride’s father died, leaving @ con- siderable fortune. She loaned him $1200, and. within 24 hours the dector was off, bag and baggage. Mise Ella.Goldbaum of New York Was engaged to marry Dr. Witzhoff under the name of Dr. Arthur Hoffer, He borrowed $400 from her and went away. Miss Myrtle Recker, an actress, met Dr. Charles.

worth of jewels and $1000 in cash and left the city. Miss Mary Thorpe of Brooklyn was in Pittsburg in 1900 while Witzhoff was running a place as a magnetic healer. It was there that Miss Thorpe was courted and married to “L. W. De Laurens,” the proprietor, who dis- appeared after borrowing $600 of her money, Witzhoff escaped from the country in 1905 and made his way to England. There he set up as a dentist in sev- eral cities and made love to women. He was arrested in Bristol in De- cember and admitted to bail. He fled, but was captured in Scotland. On Aug. 28, 1907, it was charged, he had married a woman named. Mary Stevens, in England, whereas a wom- an named Ellen Bell was still alive and had been married to him in 1905. He married the Steven® woman as Arthur Hyne, and the Bell woman as Albert Charles Western. After he was sentenced to seven years penal servitude he broke down and wept | Uke a child, finally admitting that he was the notorious Witzhoff. INTERNATIONAL BIGAMIST =~ WED ILLINOKS GIRL HERE Witzhoff came to St. Louis in 1902. He was employed in the office of a Wash street dentist, married Katie Nagel of Benton, Ill., under the name of George Retter, lived with her six months and deserted her, taking $600 which she had saved up. Sire afterwards got a divorce and married a Chicago man, During this time Pauline Zelukovits of Bonne Terre, Mo., whom he married in Philadelphia in 18% and robbed of $900 after chloroforming her, came to 8t. Louis seeking him. The startling re- semblance between Witshoff and his employer caused her to mistake the lat- ter for her fugitive husband Later she acknowledged her mistake, and resumed 2

him, ‘“‘Admiral Dayton refused to let the sailors go ashore and patronize his place, and that caused him to pull up stakes at Chefoo and go to Manila, leaving his wife behind. “At Manila Adsetts met Gertrude Dayton. They went from Manila to Hongkong together last August. It was only a short time afterward that he strangled her in a quarrel over money, I believe. Had to Go to Manila. ‘When Adsetts stepped off the boat at Chefoo, it was not difficult for us to send the constable to arrest him. I was detailed ‘to take him back to Ma- nila, for the reason that he could be extradited by the British Government from there, but not from Chefoo. The reason was that while there is an ex- tradition treaty covering murder be- tween Great Britain and China, there is no such treaty between China and the British colonies. The treaty with the United States includes the colonies, as well as the rest of the British Empire. “In Manila a British officer took Ad- setts and carried him back to Hong- kong, where he was found guilty and henged. “The murdered girl came from Youngstown, O., and, I understand, her correct name was Hefner.”’ SPIRITUALISM.

FEDERAL 0. K. Judge Gary Says Cobporati Stock Should Be In- vestigated. NEW YORK, Feb. 15.—In the course of a discussion on nitalization Judge E. H. Gary, chairman of the United States Steel Corporation, de- clared unequivocally tn favor of physi- cal valuation of corporations and their investigation and control by the Federal Government. He said: “I have no information that would justify me in saying that dishonesty is any larger in proportion to capitaliza- tion. . Of course; the aggregation of wealth, if placed in the hands of dis- honest people, will furnish greater op- portunities for harm. Therefore, I believe large corporations should be sub- ject to investigation and control by Gov- ernment authority. “Knowledge and publicity of the af- fairs of great corporations are the only corrective and the only protection against imposition and fraud. This will cover not only the question of overcapi- talization, but the subsequent cunduct of corporations. “All Should Be Protected.” “If in some way the capitalization of a corporation could be considered and de- termined by Government inspection be- fore the company is incorporated, the rights. of all who are interested would be protected.”’ Judge Gary would not discuss details of making physical valuations because he believes that the preseft machin- ery of the government is fully able to handle the situation. Judge Gary continued: “It probably is a fact that there has been more or less overcapitalization. This has resulted in more or tess harm to financial] conditions. There has been extravagance in the issue of securities and in the prices of securities and in the speculation in them.”’ Business Recovery Soon. But in spite of the unpleasant fea- tures of the situation, Judge Gary says the fundamentals of business of this country are sound, and he believes there will be an early resumption of business. His belief in a speedy recovery is based on -the extensive knowledge of the situation which his position In the steel trade furnishes him. As though in confirmation of his ex- pressed views he received a telegraa from one of the great railroads making inquiry for 60,000 tons of steel rails to be ordered immediately. This order will probably be placed in a few days, and will be the first one of importance re- ceived by the steel companies since the dispute between the railroads and the railmakers cut off all rail production last year. The roads are all in urgent need of rails, and it only needs an ini- tial order by one important road to start a. rush from all the railroads of the country. CENTENARIAN BARS MEDICINE AND RECOVERS FROM ILLNESS Indianan Has Enjoyed Second Sight Twenty Years and Can Walk About. ELIZABETH, Ind., #eb. 15.—Despite the handicap of a hundred years, and the fact that he has steadfastly refused to take medicine, David Deatrick, who last June celebrated his one-hundredth birthday anniversary, and for four weeks has been ill at his home, is recov- ering. Mr. Deatrick is a remarkably well preserved mag for his years. With the exception of his defective hearing he re- tains all of his faculties, and until the time of his present illness he has been able to walk about the house, and oc- casionally to the home of his _80n, half a mile away. Twenty years ago he received his second sight, and is able to read the finest print without the aid of glasses. VILLAGERS FIGHT STARVING WOLVES AT EACH NIGHTFALL Criers Go About Warning Persons Not to Venture Out With- out Lights. PARIS, Feb. 16.—A pveat wolf hunt is being conducted by the people of t: . little villages round Dijon, situated on the outskirts of the forest lands.

And the mysterious envelope, stowed away in the London vault, will rival . the zrave of Druce in its fantastic, faecinating mystery. This Henri Lemoine fs under ar- res! at Paris. The French courts have been called upon to _ decide Whether he is merely an unusually clever swindler, with monumental nerve, or whether he is the rea) dis- coverer of a scientific fact of incal- cilchle importance. The envelope in Icdon holds the answer, but the en- yelope in London will never be opened until] M. Lemoine is in his pave if the skill of great masters of the law can prevent. Henri Lemoine has “made dia- monds” in the presence of the world's rost eminent experts. But the cry ‘Mf “juggtery” has gone up from some, While others-with equal fervor main- tain the genuineness of the accom- piishment. At any rate, Lemoine, verting under the most rigid super- Virion, “produced” dozens of dia- monds of the first water. If there were fraud in this, it escaped detec- tion by the keenest, shrewdest eyes in meres. And if there were no fraud, ri Lemoine actually has reade @d famonds just as pare and brilliant as any crystals ever unearthed in the great South African nines. The one who cries “trickery” and “Swindle” the loudest, and who has Caused the arrest of Lemoine, is Sir delius Wernher, a London million- aire, a director of the De Beers Dia- mond Co., and himself a celebrated diamond authority. Sir Julius backed Iymoine to the extent of with a view, it is said, ultima afiling the dtamond-making

The envelope must remain as it is until I die.” The story of this diamond wizard ‘and his achie ents, whether they have real scientific worth or are mere dazzling char ry, reads like a tale from the Arab Nights. Aladdin’s lamp worked hardly less wonderful things than he has accomplished, or if not accomplished, yet so clever! simulated as to deceive distinguish

But Lemoine, noth- ing daunted, said he would, and that be would have his demonstration in the presence of witnesses of Sir Julius’ own choosing. That was in Paris. Sir Julius, the famous Alfred Beit and other diamond experts gath- ered at the home of Lemoine in the Kue Lecourbe. Lemoine is a man just turned 30 years of age. He is tall, erect, well- knit, with black whiskers and pierc- ing black eyes that give him the look cf a magician. At his home there was an electric furnace in which he could produce a temperature of be- tvreen 3000 and 4000 degrees of heat. That there might be no ground for suspicion of trickery he divested him- self of his clothing and performed bis weird necromancy nude. He brought forth a small amount of powder, whose composition was un- kiown to the remainder of the com- is THIS LEMOINE’S SECRET?

A _ ferro-boron formula, a half interest in which was purchased from Le moine by Edgar Cohen of London, is almost identical with the for- mula published in encyclopedias. Ferro-boron is a sort of diamon dust. Here is the Lemoine formula for making it: : “Description of the invention of Ferro-Boron: A 4 “When in an electric furnace heated to a temperature of over 4000 degrees boron is mixed with if6n I obtain a mixture of Ferro- Boron, Ferro-Oxide, and different oaides of Boron. “To avoid all oxides of Boron it is sufficient to work in an at- mosphere free from oxygen, but, the Boron element being a very dear product, to obtain it cheaply melted Boric Acid (anhydrous) may be used. “When mixing in this same temperature boric acid with iron we obtain Ferro-Borates instead of Ferro-Boron,, and to obtain this latter it is necessary: “1. To work in an atmosphere free from oxygen, consequently in an atmosphere of CO2 (Carbonic Acid). “2. It is necessary to add to this mixture animal charcoal, which is used to absorb the oxygen which forms owing to the reaction of the fron on the Boron. “I have therefore obtained my product, which ts Ferre-Boren, in this way: Boron. a 55 “I place this mixture tn a crucible, which I then pat In electric furnace.

Lemp III is a sturdy of Mr. Lemp. little fellow, with light hair and big, is at a window out of merry eyes. He is affectionate and bright and boyish. He has a con- tagious laugh and enunciates his words with a quaint childish lisp. One would have thought the little fellow’s childhood and youth would hive been very bright and happy. His parents idolized him from birth. His home was beautiful. He was to huve everything that money could buy and all the love that a fond father and mother could lavish on him. And then his father “went away.” , It must have puzzled the child's mind that “papa” came home no more. He could look across the street through the window and see his father busy at his desk. But his father never ae, yard and AS used to. He did not ride the donkey any more. The one-time beloved pet staid ifjly in the big brewery stable. The saddle was there and the bridle, and the donkey was just as inviting a steed as ever, but he -had passed out of the child’s life, too, when the “great change” came. After June last even the formal visits of the child ceased. Mrs. Lemp would no longer permit him to cross the street and the father made no attempt to violate her wishes as long as the son remained in the custody gnd control of the mother. But his heart ached and the yearn- ing to hold the little boy in his arms and feel the touch of the baby cheek against his own was ever with him. His heart cried out with an irre- p'essible longing for the companion- ship of the wee chap who romped and played in the green grass just across the street and who waved a signal now and then. “I will not let William see his father any more,” Mrs. Lemp said, “because he shows him the donkey which William has been riding ever since he was 3 years old. He tells tne child that if he will come to him he can ride the donkey again. “Mr. Lemp is using the donkey to try to induce the child to stay with him, and every time this happens William is made nervous and restless. William does not care to see his father, anyway.” But Mr. Lemp said his son had been affectionate and loving always and that he knew the boy did want to see him and would come to visit him gladly if he were permitted to do so. “He shows he loves me by the way he waves his hand at me when I see him from my window,” said the father the man. cheapening his riches and his influence in the business world by comparison, is his craving for the child’s companionship and love. At the time his suit was filed he made @ remark that came from the bottom of the father’s heart. “Tl want the boy to have an un- biased and unprejudiced chance tu develop the love for me that he should have,” said Mr. Lemp, “and if, after a fair trial, he shows an aver- sion to me I shall look within my- self for the cause of that aversion.” The rich man, who directs the movements of hundreds of employes, who computes his wealth by the mil- lions, who occupies a high station in business, whose name is known the world over, would have the final judgment on his character passed by a fair-haired little lad of 7 years. “And if he shows aversion to me. I shall look within myself for the cause of that aversion’’—there is the pivot on which this man’s life turned when he appealed to the law to give him possession of the son he loves so tenderly. Truly, it was a remarkable situa. tion that suit disclosed, a million- aire valuing above all else the love of a baby boy, and yet being denied a’! save an occasional wave of the hand as the little fellow romped across the street. The Lemp brewery is on Cherokee street. The general offices are at the corner of that street and South Thir- teenth street. Just across Cherokee. facing Thirteenth street, is the house where the little boy lives with his mother, “The Lavender Lady,” as Mrs. Lemp is known all over the West. Mr. Lemp’s private office is at the rear of the general office building. Its furnishings are costly and rich. The desk of the millionaire president stands probably half a dosen feet from a window. It is so located that Mr. Lemp looks out toward the door, but is set at an angle, so that by merely turning in his chair he can look acroas Cherokee street and over the fence into the yard*where little William plays when the weather per- Dy) Med Lemley, fising of Mr. Lemp’s suit his separa- tion from the child was entirély voluntary, though it cost a tremen- dous effort on his part. He had asked that the child be permitted to cross the street, but as this permission was withheld he made no effort to see his son against the mother’s wishes. He could have stepped across the street in half a minute, but con- tented himself for months with watch- ing at the window, just as though the street had been some impassable canyon, impossible to bridge. Mr. Lemp made the statement ré- cently that for eight months he spent every week day within speaking dis- tance of his son, with only the narrow street between them, and yet only once in that long while did the child go to the father’s office. That was cn last Christmas day. Little William was permitted to step over to the office building and spend a little while with his father in the private office, where the lonely man had stood at the window so many, many times watching the boy’s play. During the separation Mr. Lemp made his home first at the Wash- iugton Hotel and later at the &t. Louis Club, where he resided at the time of filing the suit. Mr. and Mrs. Iemp were married in October, 1899, and William ig 7 years old. They separated in October, 1906. At the time of the separation Mr. lemp made a statement for publica- tion. He said: “My wife and I have not been get- (ing om for some time as husband and wife should. If these conditions bad affected me alone, | might have continued to bear with them.

— — - 7 Singer Astonished Atlanta by Walking Across Lots From Her Private Car to Kimball House Barber Shop and Taking Chair-- Strange Things Actresses Do--Bernhardt’s Coffin, Mrs. % Pat Campbell’s Dog, and Mrs BY ANNA LEE. CTRESSES cut queer capers. A The person possessing a genu- ine theatric temperament al- ways seeks to attract attention to himself or herself. Such a tempera- ment is in its element before the footlights. The pranks it plays off _ the stage, however, often are eccentric and startling. The latest caper cut by any theatric- a! persons of note is the barber shop haircut episode in which Mme. Calve, the great singer, was the central fig- ure. This occurred at the Kimball House, one of the leading hotels of Atlanta, Ga., a few days ago. It is the nine days’ wonder of Atlanta. And why not? Surely it is enough to give anybody. a nervous jolt when * the famous songbird,.in her rustling silks, her costly furs and shimmering jewels, sails into a barber shop, waits the cry of “next,’”’ and then cocks her feet up and settles down in the chair for a haircut. Startles the Barber. “Shave or haircut?’ said _ the amazed barber. He Was so startled he didn’t know what was the right thing to say, so he blurted out the — that were second nature to m. “A haircut, if you please,” replied -Mme. Calve, “you may trim it here and here, so—do you understand?’’ “Sure, sir— beg pardon — yes, ma'am,” the rattled barber managed to stutter. Now, in order to reach the Kimball House barber shop one has to pass from the elevator across a wide, mar- ble-tiled lobby, past the office, past the “palm garden” and past the men’s - writing room, which has a big arched doorway, from which the curtains are draped back. The Kimball House is the most cel- ebrated. hostelry in Atlanta. It is the pc litical headquarters for the whole of Georgia and there always is a gath- ering of politicians and State officials in the large and beautiful lobby. It is also a favorite inn for theatrical people, to say nothing of its being the time-honored stopping place of all the old, aristocratic Georgia families when they go tc Atlanta. So dozens of pairs of eyes saw Mme. Calve when she swept grandly toward the barber shop. Of course, nobody would deliberate- ly stare at a lady who went to be ved or have her hair cut. No Southern gentleman would think of such a thing. But it was astonishing how many men discovered just at that moment that they needed a shave and needed ft in a hurry. So they crowded into the barber shop, sat in all the chairs and stood lined up against the wall and hanging over the cashier's desk, awaiting their turn. The ‘‘Divine’s’’ Odd Desire. Mme. Calve was not a guest of the hotel. She was passing through the city in her private car, which was sidetracked just outside the Terminal Station, a few blocks away from the hotel. She went to the hotel, not for luncheon, not to engage a room, not tv pay @ call, but simply anid solely to get a haircut. She was recognized by several people. The tdentity of the beautiful barber shop customer was -gade known quickly to the crowd of men who had discovered their need of shaves. | The barber went to work nervously. tle was cold and hot by turns. It was the first time he had ever cut the hair of a famous and very utiful opera singer. He could cut the hair of a drummer, He could make a politician look stunning. He could trim up the locks and the whiskers of a Southern | ter so his own overseer wouldn't ow him. But an opera singer— ¥hew! He worked very gingerly, Mme. his movements the vbile. At last the task was finished. e recalcitrant locks were properly ed, The fair customer rose from unconcernedly to the cashier's desk, paid for her haircut and swept out of the shop as grandly as she had en- tered. The barber who cut her hair heaved a tremendous sigh. The men who had come to be shaved looked at each other and grinned. Then mos of them remembered they had engage- ments and that they wouldn’t have time, after all, to get any shave. espe- cially when the shop was so crowd- ed So a good part of the crowd ad- journed to the lobby once more to talk politics. That is all fhe diversion to be had in Georgia nowadays. The State is “dry.” But Mme. Calve is not the only the- atrical person who cuts queer capers My goodness, no. There is Sarah Bernhardt, for in- siance. The divine Sarah is famous for the odd things she does off the stage. She is always posing, say those iho knew her, and she will die in some eccentric, novel, theatrical man- ner, all her own, she herself de- clares. “T want to die as Camille,” she has said. “I want to actually die when the time comes for Camille’s life to leave her body. I want the curtain tc go down and leave the people sav- ing: ‘Mon Dieu, was not Sarah splen- did tonight—was there ever such a powerful death scene?’ And _ then they will be amazed to learn next morning that it was a real death they suw-—that Sarah is no more, that Sarah died when Camille died.”’ Anna’s “‘Dreamy Eyes.’’ The idea of death has a peculiar fascination for this strange woman of genius, this feminine mystery, who is all pose and theatricals, and who has thrilled thousands and thousands of people, and who now, though she is an old woman, still is able to make the heartstrings vibrate more re- sponsively than many famous women a third her age. It is not a morbid interest she has in death. It is a keen, marvelous appreciation of the dramatic grandeur of a life’s termi- nation. Bernhardt delights in arraving her- self in the trappings of death, in pos- ing as a lifeless body, in simulating the awful stillness of a corpse before the camera. She has her coffin in her home in Paris. Often she sleeps in it, she tells her friends, and she has had photographs made of herself lying in it, with her hands folded, stil] and motionless, as she will lie one day when thé divine fire is gone forever from the frail body of the divine Sarah. There are two other French actress- es who have attracted attention to themselves by queer doings off the stage. One is the bewitching Anna Held. She has. quite a talent for cut- ting odd capers and never allows dull- ness to invade her surroundings. Per-

naps ner MOSst famous oif-the-stage “stunt” was the milk bath. Anna’s “dreamy eyes’”’ and lustrous complexion were among the _ tools with which she had carved out fame and fortune, and Anna wanted to preserve that complexion, so she went in for milk baths—not any “cold ¢ream” affairs, but regular dips into rich, white milk straight from the dairies, and unadulterated with for- maldehyde, chalk or water. ‘Jersey Lily’s’’ Outbreaks. Wherever she went the fame of the milk bath’s preceded her and wom- en, especially, turned out in great numbers to see the actress who bathed in milk. Of late nothing has been said about the milk baths being continued, but a considerable part of the fair Anna's fame rests on this unigue caper.

Mrs. Leicht imports the most elaborate tcilets and lingerie for her “dolly.’ The beautiful waxen thing has. no name, and its owner and her family and friends simply call it “Dolly.” For a long time only Mrs. Leicht’s family and her intimate friends knew of her peculiar fad. But recently the fact became generally known in Chi- cago society. This was when the news leaked out that Mrs. Leicht had imported from Europe another new and very elaborate wardrobe—or ruther trousseau—for her pet, at a cost of many thousands of dollars. Set Society A-Flutter. Chicago society was all a-flutter when descriptions of the various gar- ments in the wardrobe and their num- ber were made known. Why, there were dresses in the trousseau of the Leicht doll that society might envy* The wardrobe comprised the most beautiful Parisian creations in gowns, lingerie and millinery.

DEATH? | F THE.many interesting side after death. Taylor’s “Medical Jurisprudence” is a@ modern classic work, and in it the author describes a case recorded in the Medical Times and Gazette in 1877. Dr. Caldwell of lowa states that he was present at the exhumation of a body that had been buried four years. He found that the coffin had given at the joints, and that the hair protruded through the openings. He had evidence to show that the de- was shaved before burial; ess, the hair of the head 18 inches, the whiskers § sand the hair of the breast 4 to Troe Heep alle seer

that the chin of the murdered man was clean shaven when the body was found, but the hair grew after dis- covery. It was argued for the pris- oner, unsuccessfully, that this evi- dence pointed to recent death, medical Witnesses refusing to accept the growth of the hair after death, and explaining the apparent growth as due to mere shrinkage of the skin. Bichat, the famous French anato- mist, states that he has himself ob- served the growth of hair on the chin after death. The skin had been close- lv shaved, and was macerated for a week, and real elongation This, from so celebrated an observer sachet, sone oon ot his assistant, that the hair con- tirued to grow if putrefaction did not occur for sOme days after death. Good, a well-known medical author- ity, writes to the same effect: but the reference which he gives in evi- dence fail to bear out his statement. Cne of the writers on whom he relies ~-Camerarius—states that he has kept the corpse of a man who had been banged, for 25 years, and that though he had pared the nails on several oc- casions they grew again. The hair, however, did not. The growth was only apparent, due to the wasting and . shrinkage of the other parts. Heister, tis second authority, credence to the belief The conflict. of medical testimony is diquieting. A contemporary has received a letter from a surgeon, WiII- liam Arthur Jones, who writes that his late principal, Dr. W. E. Lioyd, was concerned in 1881 with a case of exhumation at Bedminster. The de- ceased was clean-shaven at the time of death, but on exhumation three months later, was found to have grown a fine beard. Then there is the well-known case told by Gen. Naasbot in his memoirs, bow Napoleon sent back the body of a dead General to Paris, preserved in a cas* of rum. The cask was mislaid, and when opened swe years later the General's mustaches had grown down to his feet. And there is the ane # Dante Gabriel Rossetti’s wife, told by Hall Caine. The manuscript of Ros- setti’s poems had been buried in the coffin, and when this was opened it was found that the golden tresses of th« corpse had grown round the poet's works, so that they had to be cut in order that the poems might be re- covered. In Mme. perthard’s memoirs, the distinguished actress explains how she went to see the dead body of her governess, and how she found to her hcrror the corpse of what to her young eyes appeal appeared a bearded man. A newspaper vaper printed in the Tibetan has been started in Lhassa, Recs capital of Tibet. her hair high. The most skilled and foshionable hairdresser in Chicago had personally attended to the coif- fure. In connection with the coiffure of the doll on this notable occasion there is an interesting incident to relate. It happened that just when the toilet preparations were being made for the grand musicale, to which Chicago's smart set haa been invited and was sure to attend, the weather was very unpropitious and the fashionable coif- feusse, a very autocratic person, de- clined to go to the Leicht mansion to attend to Miss “Dolly.” Queer Pet's Costume. Mrs. Leicht was chagrined for a time, especially as she had set her heart on her pet making a great hit as the main attraction at the big function. But her distress over the incident was short lived. Orders were given to get out the most comforta- ble auto in the Leicht garage and it was sent to fetch the very exclusive coiffeusse to the Leicht home. The autocratic hairdresser could not resist such considerate ‘attention and the certainty of a liberal fee, and she readily succumbed. It was worth her while, for she has ever since con- tinued to enjoy the very profitable duty of looking after the doll’s coif- fure. This doll fares as well, according to the approve. rules which govern the garbing of society’s devotees, as the most exacting. For instance, for morning wear dolly usually is cos- tumed in a house gown of pale pink satin, trimmed in hand-made lace, the throat cut low, and an underjacket, which she wears with a white silk petticoat. Adored and Feted. For different hours of the day and evening the doll has any number of appropriate costumes, among which are many handsome tailor-made out- fits.

HE “irony of life’ was strikingly, 5 illustrated recently in the news of a rustic who slipped from a six-barred gate and broke his neck, aud of an Italian aeronaut who fell 1000 feet with his collapsed balloon, with no worse result than a sprained ankle. It is not, long since a French wom- au, Mme. Morel, and her daughter, while climbing in the Alps, near Zer- matt, fell a distance of 12C0 feet (not much less than a quarter of a mile); and; although the mother was killed on the spot, her daughter escaped with a few bruises. Mr. Whysmper, tie famous mountaineer, had a sim- ilurly miraculous deliverance from what seemed to be certain death when sealing the Matterhorn a few years ago. Losing his footing he fell from reck to rock to the bottom of a pre- cipitous gully, 100 yards in depth, chly to recover his feet with no worse damage than a badly cut head. And VU. Parville, a French writer, tells the story of an East Indian, living in ‘he Island of Oghin, who fell over a precipice 1000 feet deep, with no more serious consequence than a good shaking, his fall being broken by the dense vegetation which grew at the foot of the cliff. While climbing a waterworks tow- er. 240 feet high, in Chicago, not long ago, a steeplejack dislodged a loose stone and was precipitated to the ground from a height of 175 feet, for- of Charles Woolcot, when he was making a parachute descent in Ven- ezuela. At a height of 3000 feet Wool- cot flung himself off his balloon into space, when, to the horror of the thousands of onlookers, the parachute when about 200 feet from the earth, the parachute flew open—and at once collapsed. He was dashed to the ground, his right thigh and hip were broken, both ankles and knees were badly crushed, and his spinal column was dislocated. And yet, after a year spent in hospital, Wooleot was re- stored to soundness of limb - after surely the most terrible adventure of 2 | which any man has lived to tell the story. But it is in the history of bal ing that one encounters the most re- riarkable cases of sensational drops from the clouds.

_ Attendance in St. Louis Now Over - 30,000 per Day—Ten Mil- lion St. Louis Admissions Each Year — How the - Nickelodeon Has Come > to Stay in Every Ameri- can City—Provides Daily Theater for Small Towns and Villages ITHIN a year or two there have been three general forward movements in the drama of ‘this country. The high-class theater raised prices and become more ‘than ever the amusement place of the rich. Vaudeville has “advanced.” And the moving picture “exhibit” has become “the people’s playhouse.” But it is the moving picture theater that presents the surprising, the aniazing feature of the year in the show world. “This line is now a Kiondike,” says a theatrical man, and he is right, for the development. of the moving picture business is Dothing les» than phenomenal. Born almost 20 years ago, the mov- ing picture did not come to the dignity of occupying a stage all to itself until three years ago. But now there are 6000 moving picture heuses in America, with about 100 ip St. Louis alone. More than 2,000,000 people now at- tend moving picture shows every day in this country. Of these St. Louis ‘furnishes an audience: of 80,000 or

years after the invention of picture machine, it was -fashioned stereop-

like wildfire into smaller cities and towns all over the country. Now there are paying continuous perform- ance moving picture theaters in towns of 2500 population. The ad- mission price was 10 cents at first. but now the majority charge only 5 cents, and that is why they are calicd “Nickelodeons,” odeon being the Greek word for a playhouse dedi- cated to the masses. But there is a great variety of other names, such as Majestic, Casino, Lyric, Lyceum Bijou, Auditorium, Wonderland, Nata- torium, See It, The Tower, Under the Sea, Fairyland. All Making Money. The majority of the moving picture theaters are solvent and the boom is still on. Manufacturers, renters, job- bers, exhibitors, are making money. Overproduction is feared, but the patronage of the people intreases constantly. “The Nickelodeon,” said Joseph Medill Patterson, the young saiftiion- aire Socialist, recently, “is develop- ing into theater-goers a section of population that formerly knew and cared little about the drama as a fact in life.” F. L. Talbot, manager filGH AND LOW BY JOSEPH MEDILL PATTERSON. HE prosperous Westerners, who-take their week or fort- night, fall and spring, in New York, pay two dollars and a half for a seat at a problem play, a melodrama, a comedy or a tg ly show in a Broadway theater. The stokers e wh have driven t Deutschland or the Lusitania from Europe pay 5 cents for a seat at a problem play, a melodrama, a comedy or @ show-girl show in a Bowery nickelodeon. What is the dif- ference? The stokers, sitting on the hard, wooden chairs of the nick- elodeon, experience the same emotional flux and counter-flux (more intense is their experience, for they are not as blase) as the prosperous Westerners in their red-plush orchestra chairs, uptoun. The sentient life of the half-civilised beings at the bottom has been enlarged and altered, by the introduction of the dramatic motif, to resemble more closely the sentient life of the civilized beings at the top. The signs in the moving picture theaters are a part of the exhibit. The audiences, made up principally of men and boys, and largely of Latin races in the 5-cent houses, know by

says another picture showman. ‘‘Min- isters drop in occasionally. We do a big business at the noon hour, because the moving picture theater is the best place to get a short rest and divert the mind from business cares.” They boast many automobile parties. If visitors desire, they may have boxes in the 10-cent houses without extra cost. The boxes are in the rear, the best seats just in front of them, and the poorest seats are “down in front.” The Biggest Theater. The success of one St. Louis house is significant. It is a 10-cent house, with plush seats, carpeted floor, many fiie exits, and an attractive front. It will soon have a fireproof ceiling and a handsome lobby, with settees and accommodations for women and chil- dren. It seats 875 people. The next largest houses are said to be the Pathe of Paris, and West’s Poly- technic in London, with seats for 650. “For this house,” said one manager, “we pay an annual rental of $7500. We have been offered $14,000 a year for the building, but we don’t need tLe money. Consider our weekly ex- pense: Electric light and power, $120; door tender, $14; ticket seller, $15; electrician, $25; operator, $20; ple, and never take in less than $1500 a week.” It is claimed by an authority in the business that it cost $40,000 to. fit up this St. Louis theater, and $30,000 for another, and $23,000 for another. Among the high grade _ 56-cent houses three in St. Louis cost $30,000 each. The movement to convert the store shows into better, cleaner, safer, higher-toned places and to raise the price from a.nickel to 10 cents is growing. At the city license office it is stated that there are now 78 moving picture shows in operation in St. Louls. Some months the number reaches 100, but consolidation has set in, and it may not be long before there is a Nickelodeon or a moving picture trust, controlling not only films and machines but theaters as well. The license in St. Louis is $25 a month, $100 for six months, $160 for 12 months. An average of 75 open moving picture theaters thus means considerable revenue for the city. Prices May Go Up. The shows now running at 5 cents admission represent an average in- vestment of $2000, or a total of about $150,000. Altogether about $250,000 is now invested in the business here. The average moving picture house seats about 99 people, and has an average expense of close to $200 a week. The doors are usually opep from noon until near midnight. The 5-cent houses usually give 30-minute shows, and the 10-cent houses 30 to 50-minute exhibits. ‘Besides scenic, comic and dramatic pieces, many ing pictures by the public. But the larger capacity and increasing num- ber of 10-cent houses must soon bring this total each year in St. Louis up to $1,000,000. And with the development of the strictly high-class picture shows, it 1s expected that the prices will go still higher, as in Paris, where lead- ing picture theaters charge from 10 cents to $1 admission. The man- agers believe that higher prices for exhibits in strictly fire-proof build- ings erected specially for the pur- pese, and furnished elaborately, will appeal to the people. They predict that it will not be long before stars of the legitimate flesh-and-blood the- ater will be seen in the immense spread of picture canvas now glim- mering before the eyes of the world. St. Louls now has a moving pic- ture factory, which “canned” Presi- dent Roosevelt's visit, the balloon reces, and will soon have a dig glass- covered stage on the roof, to “can” playlets just as they are “can- ned” in Paris and New York. The manufacture of films has open- Fo Interesting Moving Picture Facts HE moving picture machine (now having more than 70 trade names) was invented in 1888-9 Edison is credited with contributing most towards it, but other inventors claim part of the credit. The first successful moving pictures were those of the Corbett- Fitzsimmons fight at Carson City, Nev., in 1897. The Jeffries-Sharkey fight of 26 rounds at Coney Island, Novem- ber, 1899, was a popular success. The process of manufacturing has now been cheapened. Film pictures have been reduced in size from 2 by 3 inches to 5-8 by 11-8 inches, and are taken 16 instead of 30 to the second.

She blushingly disclaimed being anything of the kind, whereupon the great man spoke many of those things which are called “ideas’’ by his admirers. Enthused Arkansas. The “world” heard one thing, how- ever, which Jeff Davis hardly counted on, and that was the way in which he unmasked the trusts. He be- lieved, no doubt, that the plotters would be so dumfounded by his as- tuteness that they would hide their defeat in silence and secrecy. But, if such were his opinion, it was rudely shaken, for the adventure was made kuown, and the strangest part of the matter to the Senator was that the ‘‘world” considered the affair a huge joke. It puzzles Jeff Davis sometimes tu understand just why the world laughs so heartily over his doings. His maiden speech in the Senate (it scems almost ridiculous to call such a rampant thing a “maiden speech’’) was received with shrieks of laughter everywhere except by his friends in Arkansas. There it was taken seri- ously. But to Jeff Davis this laugh- ter is an enigma knottier than the ‘riddles of the sphinx. The sort of stuff which composed that speech was received with uproar- ious enthusiasm by his friends, and Jeff was unable to comprehend why it didn’t make just as great an impres- sion on his fellow senators. There were several reasons why. Perhaps one of them was that the thick car- pet made no noise when he stamped the stamp of righteous rage upon its unresponsive meshes. This feature of the speech was thus described in = ss FORTUNES AWAITING MISSING HEIR OT the least remarkable feature concerning the unclaimed wealth held by the British Courts of Chancery and others is that in some cases the next-of-kin have been missing for between one and two hundred years. There is, for in- stance, nearly $30,000 waiting for per- sons who can prove themselves to be relatives of one Edith Goddard, who married 8. Trattman in 1722; while there is something of advantage to be learned by the descendants of Ann, the wife of Joseph Mason, who died in 1776. The descendants of James Johnstone, who died in Dailly, Ayrshire, in 1792, are also wanted. Unclaimed funds are due to the un- known heirs of many have died intestate in These include the ; a 7s ine aes, ie % —————— George Nealse, $7225; Ernest A. Leh- man, $5450, and John Williams, $5450. The trustees of an estate in Sun- dcrland, which probably belongs to the heir-at-law of Henry Moorhouse, who in 1826 was a captain in the army, would like to find the person who is really entitled to the property. When Lewis Moore of London died in 1837 he left trust legacies amounting tu $5000. These have now become pay- able, but no one has come forward to claim them.

The carpet is too thick. Stamp how he might, no re- sounding echo came from the ffoor ts encourage him. The first effort gave a noticeable shock to the orator. He walked out into the aisle and wsved his arms, transforming him- self into an animated railroad cross- ing sign, shouting: In a Perfect Fury. “Stop! Study! Think.’ “With each word there was a stamp that should have been resound- ing, but was not. He had worked himself to a perfect fury by his own rage at trusts. His bulky frame fairly quivered with emotion. His face was red and perspiration was running down over it. He was working with al) his might, and the floor gave no encouragement. “An expression of mystification and disappointment came over him. He paused, looked around as if suspect- ing some vile trick of the trusts, and his expression changed to positive pein. He almost forget his familiar Val rele for a moment, and had to fuss with the papers piled on his desk to rccover himself. “But in a few moments he had for- gotten his first failure and tried again. Same result.

He paints un- seen glories on the rainbow. He adorns the the lily with an adept tongue, and he puts new glories on the sunrise. He serves up patriot- ism on a salver of gold and makes it look good enough to eat. He tells the people they are an angel choir and that they can sing him to sleep any time they wish. “All this went fine in Arkansas. The country papers printed it with red headlines. The school children learned it by heart. Thus, the news went out of Arkansas to all parts of the country that Jeff Davis was the ‘greatest orator, the finest legislator and the most dangerous enemy of trusts that ever hit the pike.’ “Davis believed it. Arkansas be- lUeved it. The United States was ready to believe it. “But the Senate speech lacked the roseate, glowing figures of speech that had flourished in grandeur in Arkansas. It was not eloquence. It was not wit. It was a lot of words with a lot of Page against the trusts.

Patrick Campbell, superin- ‘tendent and paymaster of the com- “pany, drove twice a month from the ") mines to Portage to draw the $3000 _7@dd to pay the workmen. Charles F.

A posse be- an to beat the woods in an effort to capture the assassins. Campbell was taken to a hospital at Altoona, where he told the Sheriff and Coroner. “I should recognize them if I saw them,” he said. “They did not wear any disguise. I do not know them, but they appeared to be Italians.’ More tHan 1000 miners and farme;s searched for the highwaymen; blood- hounds tracked them; many mep were arrested but liberated on rov- ing their innocence. The Puritan Coal Mining Co. em- ployed Pinkerton detectives to hunt the murderers, and offered large re- wards for their capture, but weeks and months passed without result. In the meantime Campbell was winning in his struggle with death. He had two buckshot in his right lung, two in his forehead, one in his mouth, and, altogether, 15 wounds. But he recov- ered and, months later, lying in the convalescent ward at the hospital, vowed that he would devote the rest of his life,.if necessary, to finding the assassins and bringing them to jus- tice. Campbell returned to his duties, but did not forget the faces of the men who had appeared so suddenly in the woods and shot him down. Their fea- tures were photographed upon his mind. There are many Italians in that mining district of Pennsylvania, and when Campbell recovered he made a practice of mingling with them and scanning every face. On these occa- sions he was generally accompanied by E. T. McNellis, a lawyer of Johns- town, and by an Italian friend. CHAPTER II, HE Italian colony around the T Portage mining district was greatly excited last summer by the arrival from Sicily of a famous beauty. Everybody wanted to see Maria de Gatenio, the rosy-cheeked, biack-eyed ragazza, who had _ just come from Messina to be the bride of Pietro Impelio, a good-looking young miner of South Fork. They had been sweethearts in Sicily, and now, Pie- tro having made money, Maria had come across the seas with her broth- e' Angelo, who was to give her away. The wedding took place in August, and it was a grand affair. The Ital- lans from miles around came to ad- mire the rare beauty of the bride, to envy the good fortune of the bride- groom and to drink copious toasts in Marsala and chianti to, the happiness of the handsome pair. Angelo de Gatenio, the brother of the bride, was one of the gayest of the gay and was surrounded all day by men whose home had been Sicily, for to them he had brought all the gossip of Messina and Palermo and the villages that nestle about the base of Mongibello, as they call Mount Et- na Gayly did Angelo rally the bride- groom. “Thou almost lost thy Maria,” he said. “That black-eyed rascal Fran- césco Inversi did his best to win her. And Francesco had strong backing in the fortune he brought back from America.” “Fortune,” cried one. “Inversi was rot in America long enough to make a fortune.” “But he had one, Dio Io sa!” re- turned Angelo, “for--on his return. home he bought a villa. He came with Carmelo Cavilli, Rosario De- grazio and Guiseppe Felermo, and all brought fortunes. One of them set up in the fruit business and the oth- ers are buyers of cattle. “Ebbene, Inversi wanted to marry Maria, but she would have none of him.” This story of the fortunes the four Sicilians had taken home aroused a perfect babel of discussion. “Per Bacco! And we thought it strange,” said Angelo; “we wondered if they had not obtained their money bv some robbery.” There was a man in this crowd who Him for Dead, and How After Four Years of Patient Search the Culprits Have Been Captured was buying wine and treating the wedding guests with a free hand. A few adroit questions from him brought forth additional details con- cerning the doing of Inversi, Cavilli, Degrazio and Felermo in Sicily. Late into the night Campbell and this man sat talking. The names of Inversi, Cavalli, Degrazio and Fel- ermo were often on their lips. The next day Lawyer McNellis was at work tracing the movements of the four Sicilians in the days before they left America. It was learned that they had quit work at South Fork on June 3, 1904, and that the paymaster of a mine at Dalton had been fired at the same day. On June 16 they had been lying in wait in the woods through which Campbell passed, but Campbell had had strange horses and a strange driver on that occasion, and so had passed before they recognized him. On July 30 they had been seen in the neighborhood of these woods just before Campbell was shot. After the murder. and hold-up they had scattered, one going to Dalton, an- other to South Fork and the other two to Boston. Two wee's later they hed met in New York and sailed on a Cunard steamer for Naples, That they were the murderers Campbell was certain. What he had learned thus by chance three years after fhe crime he communicated to the Italian Govern ment. ee CHAPTER III. N a villa in the woods near Mes- [ sina sat Carmelo Cavali:, Rosario Degrazio and Guiseppe Felermo, playing tarocchi and drinking. They were moody and they slammed their cards down savagely upon the table. “This hunted life is ruining my nerves,” said one of them. “Yes,”’ said another, “since Inversi was caught last September we have rot had a day’s peace.’ “And that fellow Campbell, > ae who + s* * . : uy. * t-? . ~ “a” = . ~ ea ce .

The news of the arrest was cabled to Mr. Campbell by the Minister of Justice, who had _ entertained the American when the latter was in Italy last year, to identify Inversi.

beauty—a rare combination of dar’, tender, Oriental eyes, with hair of a riche:, purer gold than is often seen ir the North. Her retinue of sulio:s, augmenting daily as the mon'hs went by, included Clarence Gilyndon, 4 young dilettante Englishman of noble family, and the Prince di ——, a Nea- politan voluptuary of formidable rep- utation, whose wealth, under a wea ope ae “Be Calm, Viola Pisani, With Me You Are Indeed Safe” into them—until the Prince lay stretched on the ground bathed in blood, and Zanoni bending over him, whispering in his ear. It wasell over. Zanoni called upon the company to witness that their uohappy host had brought his fate upon himself. When all had with- drawn save Glyndon, who had been a silent spectator throughout, Zanoni said to the Englishman: “Go! I have business here yet. But meet me at midnight on the sea- shore half a mile beyond your hotel, by the pillar with the broken chain.” Then he turned to the cowering Mascari. “Mascari,” he said, “your patron is no more. For yourself, be thank- fu) that you live—recollect the wine of Cyprus. I forgivé you.. Now, be quick! and conduct me to the cham- ber where Viola Pisani‘is confined.” CHAPTER III. The Amulet. HEN Clarence Glyndon sought the midnight rendezvous on the seashore he found him- self face to face not with Zanéni, but with Zanoni’s master, the ancient and mystic Mejnour, who dwelt in Rome. “He whom you seek will be here anon,” said the venerable stranger; “tut to me his duty is henceforth transferred. Yonder in the bay lies the vessel in which Zanoni is to seek another, he would say a fairer and a happier home. Young man, if thy imagination is -vivid, if thy heart is daring, if thy curtosity is insatiate, I will accept thee as my pupil. Hark! he comes. You will have to decide, once for all, upon your choice.” Zanoni sprang ashore from a small boat, and in another moment was en- gaged in earnest, solemn converse with his disciple and friend. “Glyndon,” said he, “men desire feur things in life—love, . wealth, fame, power’—— “Such are not the gifts I covet. I choose knowledge—like thine own.” “Beware! Of myself, I render no account. Sinee thy choice is made I can only resign thee to a master who has the power thou seekest—the rest must depend on thee. Farewell! Thy trial commences. When next we meet thou will be the victim or the victor.” He re-entered his boat, and as it receded from the shore Glyndon no- ticed for the first time that it con- tained a female form—Viola! She waved her hand, and with mournful sweetness called: “Farewell, Clarence! I thee.”’ it was thus, in the year 1791, that Viola and her mysterious lover fled from Naples to the home whieh Za- noni had prepared on the loveliest of the Ioniaan isles. They were happy as earthly lovers may be, in this Eden garden; but for the philosopher it was the happiness of oblivion. Alone in his secret alchemist’s cave, he sum- moned Adon-Ai, his old familiar Spir- it of Faith, and contemplated wist- fully the starry splendors he had re- nounced for mortal love. “Humanf- itv is sweet to thee,” whispered the Radiant One. “But knowest thou not that thy darkest enemy dwells in the Real?” Viola grew restless, trying in vain tc follow her lord through the Land of Shadow. She awaited eagerly, as did he, the coming of the child which should yet truly unite them, soul to scul. And then it was that dread pes- dise. , forgive the small, antique amulet he wore on his breast. “How often it has made me jealous of the past!” “Child,” he answered, tenderly, “this amulet is to me more than a wizard'’s spell—it is the relic of a sweet vanished time when none who loved me could distrust. One day, per- haps, it shall be transferred from my breast to thine—whenever the laws of our being shall be the same.” Neapolitan and Catholic, with all the superstitions of her land and sect, Viola stole away to her cham- ber and prayed before a little relic of San Gennaro which the priest of her house had given her in childhood. When Zanoni awoke the next morn- ing he found that relic of the saint suspended with his own mystic amu- let around hig neck. But the plague broke out, and Za- noni with his bride fled before it like the shepherd and the herdsman. In Venice their child was born. The supreme hour of Viola’s peril brought Zénoni to his knees in prayer, and he seemed tc see that veiled Horror, the immemorial Dweller at the Threshold, looking on him with burn- ing, malignant eyes and saying: “Ha, young Chaldean! thou who wast to have attained to the last mys- tery that baffles Death—fearest thou Death now? But I can aid thee—lI can gift thee with healing to save both mother and child.” “T yield!” cried the Rosicrucian, his frame shaking convulsively with the conquest of the repugnant § spirit. “Mother and child—save both!” —— CHAPTER IV. The Reign of Terror. T WAS Paris, in the terrible year of 93, when Robespierre and Couthan, Hebert, Fouquler-Tin- ville, Payan and Dumas daily signed the death warrants of hundreds, while secretly conspiring for each other's ; : heads—and the y guillotine was monarch over all. But how had th® maelstrom drawn into its fatal vor# x the four beings whose lives were so strangely, so in- extricably entangled? By one of those resistless waves of doom which once risen rush forward with culminating force to break on the sheres of eternity. The weak and irresolute Glyndon had failed, as Zanoni feared he would, in the aus‘ere test of his novitiate with Mojnour; and, rejected by that raighty teacher of science, had re- turned to seek refuge once more in his own art, with Jean Nicot, at Paris. Accompanying Glyndon—or rather pursuing him—was the jealous Ca- lsbrian girl, Fillide, to whom he had phghted his love troth, following the example, as he declared, of Zenoni with Viola. Passing through Venice at a moment when Zanoni had gone to Rome to visit Bejnour, Glyndon found Viola alone, distressed and doubting. His own story confirmed her jealous dread of Zanoni’s occult affiliations to such a degree of pas- Sierate horror that she consented, even begged, to flv from Italy under tue Englishman’s protection, in order that her child might be removed from the influence and evil destiny of its father. It was not the faithless wife, but the fond and superstitious mother, who fled from Zanoni. This thought, this conviction comforted him when he started to seek in foreign lands for her who had become to him, as he would soon substantially prove, infi- nitely dearer than his own life. But Paris—the Paris of the Revo- lution—that abode of fufies and black pit of hades!

© Cot of the OMPARED with some great strikes of the past the present London motor-omnibus strike is a somewhat small affair, although, of course, it cannot be regarded as such from the employers’ and em- ployes’ point of view. The first four days of the strike in- velved a loss of $25,000 in earnings to the London Road Car Co., while the drivers, conductors, fitters, etc., vp strike lost over $7000 in wages. The music-hall strike, which began ir January of last year, and which lasted for about one month, was es- timated by’ the National Alliance to have cost over $250,000. The salaries forfeited by the strikers amounted to $168,000, while over $75,000 was paid to relmburse many of the artistes. The biggest and most costly strikes Pngland has experienced was the dock strike of 1888, when 80,000 men went out for @ penny an hour extra wages; the strike of 70,000 engineers, in 1897, which cost the country at least $26,000,000, and possibly twice that amount; and the South Wales coal dispute a year later, when 50,000 threw up their work, and refused to swing a pick for 117 days. The Penrhyn colliery dispute of 1900, which lasted three years, and is the longest strike seen’ there for half a ¢entury, cost the men $1,829,- #4 in wages; and whereas at the be- girning of it England imported to slate, at the end ships were bringing World’s Great Strikes had the death. played ‘ae OF EP » ¥ eS Bop a sd ae oe“ oe Sed Sb ae TT. ~ panies -- th 3 iS ae . és i % ee nd - } 2a es vw fe Pa: - = 7 Eecee ) = *~ _a > Bee x . —_— ee e whe - 4 P Bee 3 We a. hse ne a io over 1200 tons of foreign site) week, In 1894 occurred damage was done on ways in 1877 during the Ohio Railway strike; officially estimated t Ww Even these big strikes, howe pale into insignificance beside one two in railway and coal ware weeks of the “eat coal war of4 when 260,006 men struck wor trade in the v = : cost the workmen ir wages $34) 000, the owners oo and the rallways, others $46,000,000.
