Profanity in public, the Chief says,,must go as did the Sun- day saloon. ‘Fhe reckless use of profanity in pub- lic is, In my estimation, the worst form of peace disturbance,”’ said Chief Creeey. “It Is becoming quite a fad for men to voice their simplest thoughts in the vil- est of language. “Many of them are gett'ng so that they cannot talk without using“profan- ity.

ILL. IN A_ SANITARIUM

Minister’s Wife Faints at Sight of Requests for Money in Papers.

— TUSCOLA, Ill., Feb. 18.—Mrs. E. C. Woolverton, one of the best-known Pres- byterian church workers in Tuscola to- das, is quoted in a lengthy interview as saying that if her friend, Mrs. E. A. Hamilton, really wrote the “I love you— send me $2” series of letters to Col. homas Snell, she did so while in a con- dition of nervous collapse. Mrs. Ham- ilton, who was known during her resi- dence in .Tuscola as ‘‘the preacher's butterfly,”’ is said to be ‘‘within a few miles of Tuscola in a private retreat, and in a condition of complete nervous collapse. While atthe Beardsley Hotel in Cham- paign Mrs, Hamilton is said to have procured two newspapers containing the letters signed by herself and daughter. She fell in a faint and was revived wat.) difficulty. Mrs. Woolverton gaid: “We have only a half light on this story that has blighted the reputations of the Hamiltons. I hope and believe that Rev. Mr. Hamilton will shorily publish a defense of his wife or that she will do it herself. I understand that her serious condition of health pre- cludes any such effort on her part for the present. Irresponsible Before Christmas. “I saw Mrs. Hamilton last a few days before Christmas. It is my opinion that she was then irresponsiblie.’’ Here are strikiug expressions by Mrs. Woolvertch ceneerning the Hamilton- Snell exposures: 1. That Col. Snell was regarded by the “Hamifitons as a gtandfather tn his dot- age and might have béen humored in his eccentricities. She believei Eelna Hamilton had an aversion for him and frequéntly referred to it. | 2. That Mrs. Hamilton. was in a crit- ical eondtion of nervousness and in that condition still wlelded the same dominat- ing influence over her husband and daughter which always characterized her. With them she was above reproach. 3. That Rev. E. A. Hamilton's letters concerning the ‘“‘buying of a home,” ad- dresg¢ed to Col. Snell, were but the echo of a determination long expressed by Col. Snell. * Always, Called Him Uncle. 4. Mrs. Hamilton had Known Col. Snell since she was a child in short dresses. She had always called him ‘‘unele’’ and he had always been gen- erous to the family in money matters. His calling her his sweetheart was a family joke. 5. That Eelna Hamilton's letters are the following by an innocent child of the dictation of a mother mentally ir- responsible, while to all outward seem- ing merely exceedingly nervous. The girl's letters imply no moral obliquity }on her part. | 6 That Rev. Mr. Hamilton, while aware of the leve phrases-in some of the letters of his wife, considered them merely harmless concessions to the in- satiate demands of the old man for ex- pressions of affection, ° The requests for money were the re- sult of a long-time. generosty of €ol. Snell to Mrs. Hamilton, whom he consid- ered a-daughter, according to the com- mon acceptance in Clinton, Newman and Tuscola. “TIT am not making a defense of Mrs. Hamilton,’ declared Mrs. Woolverton, who is one of the wealthiest women in Tuscola. “Il am merely pointing out that peuple should be charitable until they have heard the other side of the case. “T must say that as matters appear oy the surface, the actions of Mrs. Hzm- ilton are inconceivable to me. She was the most devoted mother I ever ‘knew. Her affection for Eelna was pathetic. She guarded the child with ex traordi- nary precautions. “Rev. Mr. Hamilton was one of the most godly men I have ever met. | find it impossible to believe that he had knowledge of the full contents of his wife's letters to Snell. But his devotion to her has always.been very great. Eelna a Modest Girl. ‘“Eelna Hamilton was and is a mod- est girl, pure-minded and of religious feeling. She has been a guest at my house. I have had the opportunity to know her intimately. I feel that the young girl, if she wrote those letters, was influenced by her mother to do that which her mother said was withou: harm.

In St. Louis, in case Gov. Folk is not authorized to provide the militia, the members probably would volunteer to man the course as deputy sheriffs. “With the Governor's consent,”’ Col. E. J. Spencer, commander of the militia, told a Post-Dispatch reporter, ‘“‘the mili- tia could provide protection for the course. The members could not act as militia, but if sworn in by the county authorities as deputies they could make arrests if necessary. Prob- ably \nothing more than -thetr pres- ence would be necessany. I am satisfied the members of the militia would be glad to act if they had permission.” “If the Vanderbilt race ean be brought here,” Secretary “‘W. F.

How Farmers Would Benefit. ‘The race would be of great benefit to St. Louis, and farmers along the course would reap a financial harvest from it. The autc. -bilists rent stables and spend money freely, and the roads over which the race is to be run would be olled and put into splendid condi- tion, from which the farmers would de- rive benefit for months.’’ Roy Britton, secretary of the Auto- mobile Club of St. Louis, said the club was eager to have the race here, and evety inducement would be held forth to the Racing Board. He considers the course surveyed last summer feasible for the race.

The anuring call of the city brought a rude awakening to Miss Madge Kelth, 20 years old, who came from Golconda, Ill., a few weeks ago to seek her for- tune in St. Louis.

The formula is as follows: “One ounce compound Syrup of Sar- sapariila; one ounce Toris Root com- se half pint of first-class whis- ey.” These to be mixed by shaking well in a bottle, and used in table- spoon doses before each meal and at time.

It is a theory as apo t poetyct,. ne a judge could not AGT. ita as? “wo MO LISTS AND ° i itn oa 5 fo wc dot ieade ae ee th are at this hour two of the most conspicuous in- habitants of the United States. Hxcepting only the founders of religious sy& tems, it is probable that Theodore Roosevelt and William J. Bryan have laid down more rules for the guidance of other people than can be traced ‘they have not confined themselves to matters re- lating thereto. They have invaded the homes and the lives of the people. They have searched hearts, construed motives and passed judgments. Both mighty as moralists, neither has distin- guished himself by practical secomplishments as a statesman. Exhortation is agreeable to many people who have no purpose to amend their ways. If cleverly done, it will be listened to attentively even from men who are suspected of insincerity. But no great awakening ever proceeded from the élo- quence of a man whose own practices were not believed to square with his professions. A moralizer in many different ‘fields, Mr. Roose- velt has been particularly urgent in enforcing excellent ideas of righteousness upon business men, and yet-if he falle far short of his object and finds little but husks at his harvest, whom has he to blame but himself? There is no other canker in our business af- fairs that compares with the protective tariff in false pretense, in injustice, th oppression and in corrupting influence. In fact, the defiant im- morality lodged in that system may be said to have suggested many of the lesser evils against which Mr. Roosevelt has declaimed. It is the parent of privilege and fraud and dishonest wealth. Mr. Roosevelt has been moralizing on business affairs for almost seven years, and not once has | Many cases he aimed a blow at this deep-seated national sin. Ite swollen beneficiaries are all about him. He knows them. He knows the wickedness of the contrivance which has given them their unde- served millions. Exhorting other people to righteousness, he has done these offenders a serv- ice by centering attention upon other and in cases lesser offenders. For 12 years or more Mr. Bryan has been moralizing on the evils of the love of money; warning people against it; condemning the rich; assalling avarice and upholding the rights of man as against the rights of wealth—fine sentiments, all of them—but not one shaft has he hurled at the rich silver miine owners who, with his help, sought to trick the American people with 50-cent dollars. Mr. Bryan knows the nature of that proposed swindle as well as anybody else. He knows why the mine owners raised a big campaign fund. He knows what they expected to gain by it. A form- er Democrat, he knows that Silver took that way to gain the privilege which could not be con- ferred upon it by the tariff, and he has been silent as to the tariff ever since. Can he wonder that he returns from the harvest with empty hands? When men were called to the ministry of re- ligion they were supposed to have a gift of God. They withstood principalities and powers; they dared the dungeon and the stake; they lived ‘se- renely in poverty and neglect and they had no favored wrongs to shield and no pampered sin- ners to protect. Their own households were in order. they did not compound anybody's vil- lainy, and least of all their own. These two incredibly busy moralists, therefore, aré not declaring the whole counsel of civic vighteousness, and their hearers know that they are not. They are concealing something. They move valorously against some things. They shrink even from the recognition of other things. They say to some men: “You must be moral.” They do not say as much to all men. Here is the weakness of our world-renowned moralists. The people hear them gladly, but they do not believe in them. When Mr. Roosevelt shrieks that business shall be honest, his audi- tors have in mind the tariff which corrupts American industrial and business life. When Mr. Bryan eams that the dollar shall not be put above the man, they ask: What has become of that base metal dollar which you yourself tried to put above the man? The moral of all this is that moralists should have morals of their own. Inculcating honesty, let them practice honesty. Laying the lash upon greed and chicanery in some places, let them do sO even more severely upon those who abide in their own households. In particular, let them not forget that moralizing which does not run against unjust taxation and counterfeit money is no moralizing at all. i att ie ~~ wWev Something ig wrong with the grand old Dem- ocratic party when a committee of any sort can meet without indorsing its peerless leader.

When One Is 01d, To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. I wish to ask some kind friend how an old woman like she did when she was young, and when every- body says “You are too old; wée~want young girls?” Do they think that they will never set old? 8. M.

Policemen are compelled to carry our manual] and bulletin case and ‘pull out our revolvers and keys at rolicall, making it very dangerous. Someone is liable to drop a revolver and shoot someone. We have not got pockets enotigh to carry all this stuff. If it was any benefit to the men, we would not care, but ft is not. Also Capt: Young makes us go to Tolicall 10 minutes before our turn. This is the only. district that does this. ° POLE ew. How Cure the Evil? To the Bditor of the Post-Dispatch, Up to date, I have heard no suggestion for the bet- terment of conditions in the House of Delegates, ex- cept;that we elect honest men. ‘l'o what end? That they may be made corrupt? The most satisfactory method of arriving at the correct attitude toward the members of the House is to put yourself in their Place. Is it possible for a man to Ilve on $25 per month salary, surrounded by opportunities for mak- ing thousands of dollgrs easy money and still re- main honest? If you answer no, then your “honest man” idea does not solve the problem, If you answer yes, and that no man should accept the honor of representing the peuple, knowing full wel! what sal- ary he will receive, unless he intends to live up to his obligations, then I will ask you to put yourself in his place. CHARLES A. GREEN. Vice and Work. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. In answer to “Observer,’’ I would say I have been employed in factories of different kinds, in Massa- chusetts, Rhode Island and Missouri, for a little more than # years and. have often heard superintendents ask why is it that the fastest and generally the best workmen are the most ignorant and drunken? With the aid of machines and a foreman. who understands and’can run and keep the machines in order, all that is required of the operator is muscle, nimblenesg and @ little practice. I applied to a superintendent of a factory in this city for a position. He said this job requires a very steady man. I answered I neither Grink, use tobacco or gamble. cle said: “I have known several men back East who did none of the four,. but I never knew one who a aoe to a gJamn.”’ I didn’t get the job. M. LB ROY. A Leap Year 'Proposa To the Editor of the PostDispeten This is leap year and a young woman has a right now to propose to a man. I am perfectly willing to do that if I can find the right kind of a man to pro- pose to. I have lived here in St. Louis for three years and in that time I have nfet quite a number of young. men, but none of them suit me, They each one have some fault that I would not like to see in my husband. If I can find a man who suits me I am willing to propose to him, for I anf old enough to be married and I must frankly admit that I would ike to be married, to the right man. I do not care go much about the Jooks of the man, although I would prefer that he could get along without a push in a crowd, the character is the thing. He must be @ good man, kind-hearted, generous, industrious and éapable of making «@ living for us. If there is a man of that kind in St. Louis who ig too timid to pro- pose I will propose to him if he wiil let me know. I am fairly good-looking and am a Christian girl and will do my best to be a good wife to the right man. LEAP YEAR. Street Car Improvements. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch.

Empty- headed, incapable girls by dozens had pessed out of her circle—some whe worked and some who did not. Many of these married men who would have made good mates for Ethel. She would have made a better mate for the mar- rvying men than the maidens they chose. Lethridge, the bald, gray bookkeeper in the office where she worked, called ber Miss Lonely; bade her look to it that she did not become a hopeless old maid; offered, in lieu of a better chance, to make her Mrs. Lethridge No. 2 when jo'ly, healthy No. 1 should be no more. tie clipped references to leap year and its privileges and laid them on her desk, with the comic pictures of Miss Lonely chesing a man. Whenever a big, clean man came into the office Lethridge would sivly ask of her: ‘“‘How would he du?” or advise her as to his financia! condition and other attractions. It was 4 merry josh, a little foolish office joke, but nevertheless she savored a hint of bitterness in the fact that gave the joke s9 long a life. One evening she rehearsed All!'son for a solo ne was io sing in an Old Folks’ concert for the benefit of the church. It was a lugubrious thing, ‘The Friends of My Youth,” with an old sexton in- terment in a deep, deeper, deepest grave on the refrain, “Oh where are the friends of my youth?’ She sighed. ‘‘We'll be saying that ip earnest before many years,’ she saic. “Our friends die or marry—and -hat's as bad for us as death, because they have families to think about while we go on getting older an& more incapable of making new friendes.’’ Tne obvious reply is: “Why should we nct Inarry and thus save ourselves from such a fate:’’ but Allison had no aptness.

IY. STOCKS PEN HIGHER-— NOOR STROKE —

Substantial Advances Made in Most Issues, but Weakness Develops Early.

NEW YORK, Feb. 18.—10 a. m.—Fol- lowing the ener of London, which was from % to % higher, the market opened buoyant and strong this morning. Deleware & Hudson and Canadian Pa- cific were partieuarly bullish, each open- ing with a 2-point advance over Mon- day’s closing. The Hill stocks opened firm, Great Northern being slightly higher than Northern Pacific, aithouss there was much more activity in the latter than in the former. The Harriman were fairly active and about % higher, but at the end of the first half hour there was a tendency in these as well as in other issues for lower prices. Missouri Pacific opened at parity, but was stagnant. Other rail issues made average open- ing gains of about %, but in the early trading became irregular, and fluctuat- ed within small fractional limits. With the exception of American Su- gar, which fell off % in its initial sale, the induStrials were all higher. Smelting and Amalgamated Copper de- veloped weakness in the first half hour, each stock losing 1 point. The Steels were unusually quiet and changed little in-the early trading. With the exceptions of Northern Pa- cific, Reading and Union Pacific, there was very littie activity in the rails division, , NEW YORK, Feb. 18, 12:30 p. m.—The irregularity that characterized the early trading was in evidence throughout the entire forenoon. There was about’ an even break in gains and losses at the noon hour. The industrial section was almost entirely lower, Steel common be- ing about the only stock that held ‘ts own. Most of the rails made smuil ains. Delaware & Hudson, Great orthern and Missouri Pacific slumped fractionally. The last’ named _ issue opened at 36, and on small olan ge | went to 34%. This is a new low level for the last seven years for this stock, the previous low being 365. NEW YORK STOCKS. (Francis, Bro. & Co., 214 N. Fourth st.) NEW YORK. Feb. 15.

A clothing stock of $75,000 was heavily damaged by fire, which was discovered at 10:30 p, m. Monday in the clothing department of the store of Michael Goldwasser, 809 North Seventh street. The fire is believed to have started in the rear of the clothing department from an over- heated stove. A large part of the loss was caused by smoke and water. The fire was discovered by Martin Ryan, a private watchman, who ran across the street to the engine house of No. 12 and No. 18 engine com- panies. Three lines of hose were car- ried into the store. The blaze was extinguished within a half hour. Above the store is a tenement and dur- ing the fire most of the members of the 7% families I'ving in it were awakened by revolver shots and they rushed to the street.

Charles A. Peabody Predicts Big Increase During Present Year. That the amount of life insurance which will be written during 1968 will far exceed that of 1907, is the belief of Charies A.

With the extrerie weakenss in foreign markets offering the chief opportunities for bear capital, most of the news finding its way in the local grain market Tuesday was of a weakening characteft and large reces- sions were suffered. A somewhat steadier tone exist@i during the late trading and thé close was l\%c to 1%c lower for the day. Bradstreet reports @ decrease of 1,311,000 bu in wheat ¢ast of the Rockies, an in- crease of 87,000 bu in Canada, an increase 5,300,000 bu in wheat in Europe and afloat, and a total intrease of 4,126,000 bu in . 85, eek 80,604,000 bu > Be > h@avy liquidation on the poor Weakened b dernand and t uation Northwest the véry unséasonable wéather, and prices opened under pressure, with May prac- tically a cent down. ‘he pit crowd was very bearishiy inclined and prices continued to sink, though occasional) rallies were made on thé relative strength in corn and the generally firm home cash markets, which ex- isted in the face of such extreme and gen- eral weaknéss abroad, Chicago reported a lively milling trade and large cash sales, but the posting of the large increase in the world’s available caused a renewal of the selling, which was aiso encouraged by the generally favcrable crop conditions abroad reported by the foreign crop sum- mary. Heavy rains are reporved in Argen- tine and are expected to retard the move- ment of grain, but offerings of wheat from that country in Liverpool were ain large and cheap, and the export mand or American wheat continued very slow. Prices declined to Over a cent below the previous day’s close and then moved rather nervously near the low points. May wheat opened %@lc lower at 93 4¢¢, declined to 98c, rallied to 98%c, declined to Y2% @YZ%C, advanced to 3c, declined to %c and rallied to S2%c. July wheat opened %c lower at 86iyc, declined to 85%c, rallied to S5%c, declined to 85%c. rallied to S5%c and sagged to 85%c. The cash emand at Minneapolis was fair, With No, 1 Northern wheat 2%c over May option and No. 2 %e over May. Minne. apolis stocks decreased 125,000 bu for thrée days. Minneapolis cars were 139, against 403 last year; Duluth, 94, against 176 last veer. and Winnipeg, 100, against 373 last A very bearish communication from the Pacific Coast was recéived. It stated that stocks there are 20,000,000 bu, compared with 8,000,000 bu last year. that much of the wheat is unsold, with farmers in need of money, and that much wheat is being exported at around §83c per bu f. o. b. The late trading was very active, The crowd seemed to think that they had gotten too bearish in the morning and started to cover. This short profit taking constituted practically all of the buying, but the pres- sure decreased towarda the last and prices reacted gradually from the lowest levels. The close was steady and prices still showed liberal declines. May, wheat was bid for at 92%c, declined to 92%c, advanced steadily to 98%c, ane closed with offerings at 98%c sellers. July wheat was bid up to 85%c, declined to 85%c, and was again bid up, dlosing at 85%@%ec Cash prices on wheat in the local marker ruled weak under a slow demand, though of- = $ are av ve Hight. rimary receipts wheat were 400.831 bu with shipments of 375 RTS bu, and local re- ‘eipts were 25,000 bu, with shipments of 70,- u. Clearances of wheat and flour for the day were .000 bu. Cables on corn were 1d lower, which with the weakness ‘in onent eaused ai lower ces fluctuations were nervous towards the last and the’ close was firm, unchanged to ke higher for the day. e world’s visible rupely of corn increased 1,335,000 bu, against 1, ; bu a year ago. There was a go00d cash demand for corn and prices were firm. Primary receipts of corn were 398.676 bu. with shipments of .665 bu. and local re- coipte were 53.300 bu. with shipments of 32.- bu. Corn clearances were 235. bu. The oats market was inactive, and May was offered 4c lower at 49%c. The world’s visible supply of oats decreased 51.000 bu. against a decrease ef 165. bu last year. Cash oats were dull and weak. No oats were cleared from the séaboard today. Primary receipts of oats were 647.717 bu.
