SENT FROM NEW YORK

Letter Written Here Threat- ened Rochester Barber Un- less He Gave $350. a ee

Louis Joseph Culean, 21 years old, an Italian, was arrested Wednesday in a downtown express office when he went ‘| there to get a package of money sent to St. Louis in response to a demand made in a “Black Hand’”’ Detectives Schenck and Kaiser had been watching the express office since the arrival there two days ago of a package addressed to “F. F. Corn, St. Louis.” Package Was a Decoy. This package was a decoy, sent by the police of New York, who asked the St. Louls police to arrest the man who called for it. ‘ Twice in the Jast 10 day: Pizzicato, a barber in Ro ceived letters commanding , $350 to. “KF.

The barber told the po- letter. Vineenzo ester, re- im to send jlice and the decoy package was put rg Says Another Sent Hi:m. Culean says that he went for the package at the request of a man he met on the street. He admits that he has been in Rochester. The St. Louis police say that he an- swers a description furnished by the Rochester police of a young Italian, who was run out of that city for writ- ing “black hand” letters.

The Prince de Winter, who was thought to haye been seen near St. Lovis last night, was in hid- ing somewhere in the Rocky Moun- tains Wednesday morning. Miss March, to whom he is said to be engaged, denies the report, and she thinks no more of the Prince than of Mr. Spring or any other of her suitors. She says she never intends to marry agath. The forecast: “Partly cloudy tonight and Thursday; warmer tonight; cooler Thursday afternoon or night; southerly winds, shifting to northerly Thursday. The minimum temperature tonight wilt t- about & degrees.” It is cooler east of the Mississippi River, except In the Lower Ohio Valley, and colder in the Northern Rocky Mountain region.

AN EXTRAVAGANT BUYER

Not First Time Creditors Have Called Her Into Court.

Nine handkerchiefs is hundred dollars worth of lace “going some’”’ in that line. This was Mrs. Eleanor O'Neil Nolker’s bill with Jacques Krakauer, who its the proprietor of the Grand Maison de Blanc in Paris, New York, and Bar Harbor. ‘The bill for handker- chiefs was originally for $900, but has been reduced by payments to $325, which is the amount sued for in Justice Kliev- er’s court, where an attachment has been issued against paintings owned by her in St. Louis. Bought What She Fancied. The suit is the result of the lavish ex- penditures of a woman who inherited a large fortune through her late hus- band and another from her father. and did not know the value of money. She was in the habit of buying what attracted her fancy, and her repu- tation as a wontan of fortune made the open account a matter of such ease that credit came without the asking. Merchants with goods to sell at an ex- aggerated profit to dthe rich aske for her account, and when she bought things for her personal adorn- ment or for her daily necessities there Was no question about her credit. This was not lessened by the reputa- tion she had earneu of being the most extravagant woman in S8t.eLouis, and when she went East to live, having de- clared St. Louis society too slow and gossipy for her, her reputation as a spender preceded her. Tradesmen Sought her Custom. Wherever she went tradesmen haunt- ed her doors and forced their goods up- on her. She bought where and what she listed. Nothing was too good for the rich young widow from St. Louis. “Mrs. Nolker has never cared for money,’ said a man who has had con- siderable to do with the straightening out of her affairs in the last few months. “When she wanted anything she got it on credit. Everyone in business was giad to get her name on their books. She bought, had it charged and put the matter out of her mind. It was often called to her attention when suit was brought against her to recover the amount, which could not be collected because Mrs. Nolker was traveling about and the accounts did not come to her notice. When her lawyer brought the notice of the suit to her, she ordered the bill paid. Attorneys Wondered. “Her lavish expenditure has been a matter of wonder to the attorneys who have been interested in the suits brought against her in St. Louis. In the past five years she has spent $750,- 000. In the past few months she has ad- justed a bill of $2400 for millinery, one for $4000 for dry goods, one for $3000 for dry goods and millinery, one for $150 for flowers, ove for $118 for wine. “About the first of the year she was caught in the financial flurry. Her liabilities were in the neighborhood of $80,000 and it is said her mother went to her assistance.’’ Seldom Asked Price. Mrs. Nolker as a “spender’’ was unique. The expense of anything she fancied had nothing to do with the mat- ter. That she fancied it was a sale. It is said by those who have sold her goods and those who have seen her buy that she seldom asked the price of an article that took her eye. If she did, she seldom questioned it. For instance, she would walk into a big carpet store in St. Louis or New York and an Oriental rug attracted her attention. It pleased her fancy. It would match the hangings in a certain room. “Send it home,” she said. Later she asked the price. or perhaps slit

There has been an average increase of 30 per cent in the prices of all meats in St. Louis in the last week, according to figures given to Post-Dispatch re- porters by retail dealers Wednesday. The Packing Trust, retailers say, has advanced wholesale prices so rapidly that the dealer who sells over the coun- ter has been forced to charge more for As a reason for the increase in. price the packers say the price of livestock has increased a cent a pound on hogs and nearly 3 cents a pound on cattle. They say reports frem the country indicate that good grades of cattle are scarce and that shipments to the prin- cipal stockyards are lighter than usual at, this season. Advance Because of Prosperity. When the recent financial flurry started the large packing houses made a sudden reduction in prices. Now that prosperity is returning it is said the ad- vances made within the last week will quickly recover for the trust the l6sses entailed in the recent slump. All of which means the housewives of St. Louis will have to pay more for their meat. A dollar wlll now buy only as much meat as 66 cents bought a week ago. A steak which then could be bought for 20 cents now costs 30 cents. A week ago a dime would buy the same amount of pork chops for which the purchaser now pays 15 cents. It will not even be economical to buy hamburger steak, because the raise in prices extends to what the butchers call “rough cuts.” A week ago this Class of meat was 7% cents a pound. Now the price is 10 cents. The humble, but sometimes tender, chuck steak has gone up from 9 cents to 12% cents a pound. Calf liver, which sold a week ago at 7 Cents a pound, is now 10 cents. Dealers at the National Stockyards say prices may continue to advance un- til there is aaequate pasturage for the cattle on the great ranges of the South- west and the “grass cattle’ commence to come te market. Then prices may go, down-—if the packers say so. Prices Up tn Chicago. Dispatches from Chicago say in that market dressed beef is up $1 a hundred ‘and mutton and lamb are up 3 to 5& cents a pound.

So oe ae DEMOCRATS CHEER © ROOSEVELT’S PLEA TOR NEW TARIF a», » i ie Republicans in Congress Silently Re: ceive Message: “The Time for ~~ Revision Has Come.” ue

ANTITRUST LAW SHOULD BE AMENDED,. HE SAYS :

junction Cases Be Changed--Calls Strikes a’ | “Clumsy Weapon” but Declares They ~ Are and Ought to Be on

By Telegraph from the Washington Burean of: the Post-Dispateh, WASHINGTON, March 25.—The briefest message that Presi- dent Roosevelt has ever sent to Congress was wildly cheered by the Democrats in the House of Representatives today. The Res publicans received it in silence, reserving their perfunctory ap+ plause until the reading had been concluded and the name 6 ‘‘Theodore Roosevelt’’ was droned out by the reading elerk. For the'Democrats it was ‘‘the day we celebrate.’’ The ment the reader reached that part of the message which said: ‘‘The time has come for a revision of the tarif,’’ the demonstration began, First there was handelapping; then there was cheering; then everye, body who could whistle added to the noise, and finally the minority, : rose as one person and pounded on its individual desks, rr itself hoarse. The clerk had to pause until the noise subsided. In the Senate the message was received without comment : any.kind. Usually the Roosevelt message. runs from 15,000 to’ | 25,000 words, and ordinarily there is something for the Republicans’ ~ to applaud. Today it was only about 2700 words to which the Sene — ate listened—and apparently the Senate ‘did not like it. oe Nobody is scolded in today’s communication, and there is @ marked absence of the adjectives that have made his previous’ messages conspicuous. It is a gentle reminder that Congress still! has time, if it will only be up and doing, to exeeute various ideas, advocated by the President. Chief along them are an amend~ ed anti-trust law, a bill to regulate injunctions, and at least a partial revision of the tariff. ao ROOSEVELT’S MESSAGE IN FULL. a “To the Senate and House of Representatives: ‘ i “T call your attention to certain measures as to which I think there ety be action by the Congress before, the close of the present session. ample time for their consideration. As regards most if not all of the motte’ . bills“have been introduced into one or the other of the two Houses, and 1 is not too much to hope that action will be taken one way or the other on these bills at the present session. In my message at the opening of the present session, and, indeed, in various messages to previous Congresses, | have ree’ peatedly suggested action on most of these measures. “Child labor should be prohibited throughout the Nation. At least model child-labor bill should be passed for the District of Columbia, 4 It unfortunate that in the one place solely dependent wpon Congress for legislation there should be no law whatever to protect children by f or regulating their labor. “l renew my recommendation for the immediate re-enactment of an em- ployers’ liability law, drawn to conform to the recent decision of the Supreme’ Court. Within the limits indicated by the Court, the law should be made — thorough and comprehensive, and the pretection it affords should embrace — every class of employe to which the power of the Congress can extend. . “In addition to a liability law protecting the employes of common car- riers, the Government should show its good faith by enacting a further law giving compensation to its own employes for injury or death incurred in tig service. It is a reproach to us as a nation that in both Federal and State ? legislation we have afforded less protection to public and private employes ai than any other industrial country of the world. Objects to the Present Procedure In Injunctions “T also urge that action be taken along the line of the recommendations 7 have already made concerning injunctions in Jabor disputes. No | restraining order should be issued by Qny court without notice; and t tition for a permanent injunction upon which such temporary | has been issued should be heard by the court issuing the same within « reas — sonable time—say, not to exceed a week or thereabouts from the date @ > the order was issued.

She admitted that she had been somewhere pinched in the recent financial stringency, but said she was able still to keep her head above the waves. She was apparently enjoying all those things that unlimited means and credit bring.

|AT SOUTHERN HOTEL Texas Prosecutor, Among Many, Is Here to Hear Testimony.

George K. Smith, secretary of the Yel- low Pine Lumber Manufacturers’ Asso- ciation, denied on the witness stand Wednesday that his organization changed its name from the Southern Lumber Manufacturers’ Association in 1906 because of contemplated action by the Texas State authorities at that time. “We changed the name,’’ said Smith, “about the time the Texas authorities were contemplating action, but not be- cause. of that fact.” Under Examination. Smith is being examined at the South- ern Hotel by F. G. Ferris of Moberly and Rush Lake of Jefferson City, as- sistants to Attorney-General Hadley. They are endeavoring to ascertain whether there is any basis for institut- ing proceedings against the Yellow Pine association for violating the anti-trust laws. Attorney-General Jackson of Kansas and Assistant Attorney-General Light- foot of Texas are watching the proceed- ings with interest. ‘The Yellow Pine As- sociation includes a number of firms in each of these states. Records in Evidence. Smith submitted in evidence Wedneés- day ccpies of various records of the association he was asked to produce Tuesday. Ferris read the following ex- tract from the record of a speech de- livered by J. L. Thompson of Willard, Tex., at the meeting of the association In New Orleans in 1906: “Pardon me when I refer to our meet- ing at New Orleans a year ago when we came together feeling that we were on the eve of a volcanic eruption, com- mercially speaking, but by a few days’ co-operation were made to feel that we had grown richer by $1 per 1000 feet on all the lumber we had in stock, “But, through lack of co-operation, in 909 days we found the volcano had erupted and prices in a fair way to reach the bottomless -pit.’’ Agreement Possibly Moral. Smith said he remembered Thompson making this speech, but added that he did not take this language to show an agreement to control prices, unless it were merely a moral agreement to do 80. Mr. Ferris’ questions Wednesday fail- ed to reveal any agreement between the lumbermen during the last three years to control prices. Smith admitted on the stand Wednes- Gay that the association in 1904 curtail- ea the lumber supply 33 1-3 cents to maintain or advance prices. Harry Gorsuch of Kansas City, secre- tary of the Southwestern Lumbermen’s Association will be examined at the conclusion of Smith’s testimony. Smith gave Mr. Ferris, among other papers, a copy of the agreement in re- gard to prices existing in 1905, among the members ef the association. An attorney for the lumbermen told a reporter for the Post-Dispatch that if a suit were filed as a result of the testimony now being taken, the associa- tion will plead the statute of limita- tions in defense. This attorney says the only evidence 0. an agreement to control prices shows it Was made more than three years ago.

CENSURED, BU NOT IMPEACHED _

Congressional Committee Re- ports Alleged Offenses Not Sufficient, but Nearly So.

ae By Wire From the Washington Bu- renu of the Post-Dispatch, WASHINGTON, March 25.—Judge Lebbeus R. Wilfley of the Shanghai (China) United States Court is exoner- ated of impeachable offenses, but scored for his conduct in the report of the congressional committee which investi- gated him. The report was made public this noon. The decision is not final because the Judiciary Committee still holds the re- port and is unable to agree upon it. The Judiciary Committee held an all- morning executive session. It is said the point was made that Judge Wilfley should either be im- peached or else not criticised, and it is likely that an attempt will be made by the commission to overrule the Investi- gating Committee’s report and recom- mend that the House begin impeach- ment proceedings against Judge Wilfley. The Judiciary Committee will continue its deliberations Friday. The Investigating Committee report ipresented by Judge Moon, its chairman, after reviewing all the cludes as follows: “The conclusion of the committee, deduced from the memory, from the ex- amination of the petitioner, and from the construction of the precedents of impeachment tgials, is that the actual facts upon which the charges in said memorial are based, even though estab- lished by competent legal evidence. would not justify a conviction of Judge Wilfley upon articles of impeachment before the United States Senate, and would not, therefore, warrant a presen- tation by the House of Representatives of such articles of impeachment. Court of “Anomalous Character.” “But, notwithstanding this finding, the investigation of this case has made clear to us the anomalous character of this court, the extraordinary power given by law to this Judge, the fact that it is separated 7000 miles from an appellate tribunal, that a broad ocean intervenes between presenting obstacles that burden the statutory right of re- view, with expense, delay and hazard unknown to any other court, justify the people of the United States in demana- ing of this Judge a temperate exercise of his great power. ‘ “It is: Obviously true that an aggre- gation of entirely legal acts may de- velop into a system of tyanny and op- pression and that an inequitable exer- cise of judicial discretion may convert the machinery of justice into an engine of despotic and autocratic power. This may be accomplished without the taint of individual corruption and with a laudable purpose of purifying a com- munity and of inaugurating civic re- form. “Terror to evil doers, if purchased at.the price of judicial fairness and overstrained legal authority, is achieved at too great an expense, for it defeats its own high aim and warps the very fabric of the law itself. The temptation of an honest Judge to bend once the law to his authority, to ‘do a great right—a little wrong’— is fraught with such danger to our whole system of remedial justice that it merits the condemnation of every le- gal mind. Only “Provable Allegations.” “Such acts of legal oppression and of abuse of judicial discretion, lie at the base of these charges on their truth or falsity, we have no power to inquire. They are made before the House of Representatives in the form prescribed by law and custom and are presented as a question of high privilege upon the solemn responsibility of a member of the House. “If Judge Wilfley were permitted to be heard he might minimize, explain or entirely refute them. “The committee does not find these charges to be facts established by testi- mony but only by provable allegations. Charges so presented against this Court have a peculiar and dangerous signi- ficance. In this case they are dismissed as falling short of impeachable offices, by what we believe to be sound princi- les of legal construction, and Judge filfley is thereby denied any oppor- tunity of defense. He cannot file an- sWer, can make no denial, nor explain to the house the legality of necessity for his action. “These charges therefore, stand uncon- troverted, and if Judge Wilfley’s judi- cial cases in the future are marked by the rigorous and inflexive harshness imputed to him, they will hang as a rtenteous cloud over this next Court, mpairing his usefulness, impeding the administration of justice, and challenge- ing the integrity of American institu- ons,”’ charges con- te ied : pe eee ? eee ps 7 ‘ a A ee 4 . : : s s: © ad : ‘ ‘O oy 5S ee a . - ~ ee ll + SEITE

Sister, 6 Years Old, Tries to Rescue Eddie Gardner, 3,#but Fails.

EOSES LIFE AT. PAY After 30 Minutes “Trouble Crew” Takes Mangled Body From Tracks.

Eddie Gardner, leas than 3 years old, was pinioned by the fender of a Lee car and dragged to death in the sight of his 6-year-old sister, Enchie, Wednes- day. ee The children were’ playing street at Twentieth and Salisbury Streets as the car, running at high speed, approached them. They saw the car, and the little girl pulled her brother aside. But he had left a picture lying in the middle of the car track, and, too young to realize his danger, he toddled back to get it. Just as he stepped between fhe rails the car dashed upon him. The fender gave no protection, but merely held him until the force of the car’s motion had thrown the little boy under the wheels. When the car was stopped some dis- tance from the corner the child was dead. The little boy could not be ex- tricated, and it was 30 minutes before a “‘trouble wagon’”’ crew arrived with jackscrews and raised the car. Policemen waited at the car sheds for the motorman and .conductor, and ar- rested them when the car, No. 1907, ap- peared there. C. E. Shandrow, the mo- torman, says he did not see the child until too late to save him. The boy’s parents, John and Cecelia Gardner, live at 2015 Mallinckrodt street.

As old ‘advances, we require less food to toplare waste, and food that will not overtax the digestive organs, while supplying true nourishment. ‘Such an ideal food is found in Grape- nuts, made of whole wheat and barley by long baking and action of diastaste in the barley which changes the starch into sugar. The phosphates also, placed up under the bran-coat of the wheat, are included in Grape-Nuts, but left out of white flour. They are necessary to the build- ing of brain and nerve cells. “T have used Grape-Nuts,” writes an Iowa man, “for 8 years and feel as good and am stronger than I was ten years ago. I am over 74 years old and at- tend to my business every day. “Among my customers I meet a man every day who is 92 years ojd and at- tributes his good health to Grape-Nuts and Postum which he has used for the last 5 years. He mixes Gra e-Nuts with Postum and says they go fine to- gether, “For many years ‘eat Grape-Nuts, I could not say that I enjoyed life or knew what it was to be able to say ‘Iam well.’ I suffered — ly with constipation, now my abits are as regular as ever in my life. “Whenever I make extra effort I de. pend on Grape-Nuts food, and it just fills the bill, I can think and write a iven by Co.,

the creation of the receivership. proper owners. “In addition to the reasons T have already urged on your attention, it has now become important that there should be an amendment of the anti- trust law, because of the uncertainty as to how this law affects combina- tions among labor men and farmers, if the combination has any tendency to restrict interstate commerce. All of these combinations, if and while existing for and engaged in the pro- motion of innocent and proper pur- poses, should be recognized as legal. “As I have repeatedly pointed out, this anti-trust law was a most un- wisely drawn statute. It was perhaps inevitable that in feeling after the right remedy the first attempts to pro- vide such should be crude; and it was absolutely imperative that some legis- lation should be passed to control, in the interest of the public, the business use of the enormous aggregations of corporate wealth that are so marked a feature of the modern industrial world. But the present anti-trust law, in its construction and working, has exemplified only too well the kind of legislation which, under the guise of being thorough-going, is drawn up in such sweeping*form as to become either ineffective or else mischiev- ous. “In the modern industrial world combinations are absolutely neces- sary; they are becoming more and more necessary among farmers. Some of these combinations are among the most powerful of all instruments for wrongdoing. Others offer the only effective way of meeting actual busi- ness needs, It is mischievous and un- wholesome to keep upon the statute books unmodified a law, like the anti- trust law. which, while in practice only partially effective against vicious combinations, has nevertheless in the- ory been construed so as sweepingly to prohibit every combination for the transaction of modern business. “Some real good has resulted from this law. But the time has come when it is imperative to modify it. Such modification is urgently needed for the gake of the business men of the country, for the sake of the wage- workers, and for the sake of the farm- ers. The,Congress can not afford to leave it on the statute books in its present shape. Labor Law Uncertain. “It has now become uncertain ho elle this law may involve.all labor organ za- tions and farmers’ organizations, as well @s all business organizations, in conflict with the law; or, !f we secure Ifteral compliance with the law, how far it may result in the destruction of the or- ganizations necessary for the transac- tion of modern business, as well as of all labor organizations and farmers’ or- ganizations, completely check the “wise movement for securing business | vo- operation among farmers, and put back half a century the progress of the move- ment for the betterment of labor. “A bill has been presented in the Con- gress to remedy this situation.. Some such measure as this bill is needed in the interest of all engaged in the indus- tries which are essential to the coun- try’s well-being. I do not pretend to gay the exact shape that the bill should take, and the suggestions I have to of- fer are teritative; and my views would apply equally to any other measure which would achieve the desired end. Bearing this in mind, I would suggest, merely tentatively, the following changes in the law: “The substantive part of the anti- trust law should remain as at present: that is, every contract In restraint of trade or commerce among the several states or with foreign nations should continue to be declared illegal: pro- vided, however, that some proper gov- ernmental authority (such as the Com- missioner of Corporations acting under the Secretary of Commerce and Labor) be allowed to pass on any such con- tracts. Probably the best method of providing for this would be to enact that any contract, subject to the prohfbition contained in the anti-trust law, into which it was desired to enter, might be filed with the Bureau of Corporations or other appropriate executive body. This would provide publicity. Within, say, 60 days of the filing—which period could be extended by order of the department whenever for any reason it did not give the department sufficient time for a thorough examination—the executive de- partment having power might forbid the contract, which would then become sub- ject to the provisions of the anti-trust law, if at all in restraint of trade. Shouldn't Affect Pending Suits. “Tf no such prohibition was issued, the contract would then only be liable to attack on the ground that it consti- tuted an unreasonable restraint of trade. Whenever the period of filing had passed without any such prohibition, the contracts or combinations could be dis- approved or forbidden only after notice and hearing with a reasonable prov’ sion for gummary review on appeal by the courts. Labor organizations, far- mers’ organizations, and other organ- izations not organized for purposes of profit, should be allowed to register under the law by giving the location of laws, and the names and addresses of their principal officers.» In the interest of all these organizations—business, la- bor and farmers’ organizations alike— the present provision permitting the re- covery of threefold damages should be abolished, and as a substitute therefor the right of recovery allowed for should

»Senator Methudy Tells Prohibi- tion Advocate to Send $500 Forfeit.

Senator Methudy Alonzo E. Wilson, calls vour hand. The $50 reward offered in Chicago by Mr. Wilson, a Prohibition advocate, for any person who would prove Abraham Lincoln -was a “drinking man,” is now claimed by State Senator Methudy, who says he has the goods. He quotes history to show Lincoln ‘took his dram.”’ The Senator asks that the check be made payable to the Salvation Army. and says he will see that it reaches its destination. Personally, he- says, he doesn’t care for Mr. Wilson’s money. But Look at This Pledge. Senator Methudy’s proof is apparently in contradiction to proof said in press dispatches to have been found at Ger- man Prairie, near Springfield, Ill., by a man who has a copy of a temperance organization signed by Lincoln, along- side whose name ig written: “Who also pledges himself to abstain totally from alcoholics.”” The history quoted by Sen- ator Methudy says Lincoln was tem- perate, but was not a total abstainer. The controversy recalls the famous passage in the Lincoln-Douglas de- bates, when Stephen A. Douglas taunt- ed Lincoln with having sold liquor. ‘“Yes,’’ Lincoln retorted, ‘‘I was be- hind the bar and you were in front of Sigs ’* Didu’t Say It, but It's So. In a typewritten statement to. the Post-Dispatch, Senator Methudy says: ‘In the first place, in ntw speech at Druids’ Hall, before the Retail Liquor Dealers’ Association, I did not say that Lincoln drank alcoholics, but said that he was opposed to sumptuary legislation, such _as prohibition. “T am not in the habit of making statements in public addresses that I cannot substantiate and which have not been given careful thought, and I did not vary from my practice in this in- stance. There are very few people now living who knew Lincoln in his private life, and as I cannot verify my sup- posed statement from a friend, I must naturally look to chroniclers who have written histories of him and accept their statement as final.”’ He then quotes the Lamon biography THIRD-TERM ESSAY WINNER SAYS ROOSEVELT IS MODEST Nevada Judge Gets $1000 for Tell- ing Why President Should Be Re-Elected.

‘Im the HATCHET DRAWN WHEN TENNESSEE FACTIONS CLASH —_ Pistols and Fist Fights Incident- al to Republican Conven- tion in South.

NASHVILLE, Tenn., March 2%.—The Republican State Convention to select presidential electors and delegates-at- arge to the Chicago Convention was called to order at 10 o’clock this morn- ing at the Capito]. For nearly an hour after the body had been called to order hundreds participated in a rough-and- tumble afair precipitated by the efforts of the Evans-Hale delegates to take charge of the rostrum already held by the Oliver-Austin-Brownlow wing. | The Oliver hosts, who had come in on a special train from East Tennessee, marched straight to the hall of the House of Representatives and filled the big auditorium shortly after 6 o'clock. The had a key and entered before the unsuspecting Evans-Hall guards were up and kept it straight through until the hour for the convention. More than a dozen fist fights occurred and pistols were drawn. One man pro- duced a hatchet. A negro delegate was knocked down by a White man. Both were arrested. Newelk Sanders, chairman of the State Committee, an ardent Evans man, was choked almost into insensibility by a member of the Brownlow faction. Final- ly the police restored order, with the Oliver men in control. After order had been in a measure restored the Oliver people organized, electing State Senator W. T. Davis of Claibourne County Chairman. The convention got down to business in a very greatly confused manner. The following wére elected delegates from the State at large to the National Republican Convention: Daniel Cooper Swab of Claibourne County, Jesse L. Rogers of Knox County, H. C. Anderson of Shelby County, Jesse M. Littleton of Franklin County.

City Council has passed a bill creating the position of Inspector of Heating and Ventilation, as a sub-department of the Building Commissioner's office.

Delegate Alleges Negro Who Says He Did Had “Pipe Dream.”

Delegate Frank Hussey persuaded a jury in the Wyoming Street Police Court Wednesday that his forty-fourth and latest arrest was'all a mistake, and that Matt Darby, the negro who accused him of throwing a glass in a saloon fight, merely imagined such a thing. happened. He was acquitted, after the jury had been out a half hour, of the charge of disturbing the peace. Witness Couldn't Remember. The negro admitted, when questioned by Hussey’s lawyer, that he possessed a vivid imagination, but he insisted thai the glass hurling incident really hap- pened. He said he went into Young’s saloon on Olive street, near Jefferson avenue, and asked no one in particular for a match. The next thing he knew, he said, he was struck on the forehead by the beer glass, which Hussey had been holding as he entered. William G. Sharp of the Hotel Berlin, Ied- ward Tiess of 2823A Laclede avenue, a cook, and Lester Howard, the saloon porter, testified that they were in the saloon all the time Hussey was there, and that they could not, for the life of them, recall any such occurrence as the negro described. Policemen Nally rested Hussey, said Darby’s word for it. Then Hussey took the stand, 4nd maintained that he was not, and had not been doing a thing when the police- men, guided by the negro, walked in and seized him. “Then how did it happen,” asked the City Attorney, ‘“‘that you, as soon as you got to the station, cross-charged the negro with throwing a glass at you?” Hussey pondereg a moment. Hussey Ponders. “I wasn't going to let him put one over on me and then get off without being arrested himself,’’ Hussey ex- plained. “He didn't throw anything at me. no more than I did at him. “His charge was all a pipe dream, and I ‘ust made mine to fit it.’ The members of the jury were A.

| Browns’ Series.

BY JAMES CRUSINBERRY. HOUSTON, Tex., March 25.—‘‘Pop”’ McCloskey’s young men will play a game of ball every day from now until the day preceding the spring series with the Browns, unless the weather in- terferes. Another game is booked for today with the Houston club and tonight the regu- lars will troupe over to Austin to make @ two-days’ stand against the cham- pions of the Texas League. Two more mes here with Washington, one at lias, one at Muskogee, one at Joplin and one-at Springfield will complete the barnstorming. After the exciting game of 1 to 0 in favor of the St. Louis team yesterday the fans here are aroused to believe they have near-major league ball right at home. Today they will try and slp over a victory on the big leaguers, but the chances are that they will get a drubbing. A visit to the training camp of the Cantillons at Galveston yesterday indi- cates that Brother Mike, who manages the Minneapolis club, was ignorant of any misdemeanor when he yesyee James = ar aga'nst the Cardinals Sun- y. “Cal” cares little for the National Commission, which has him blacklisted, and while he does not wish to make Cantilion any trouble, he would like to ve the three leaders of organized base- ll something to work over.

Old First ‘Baseman In No Mood to Be Displaced.

Specia) to the Post-Dispatch. SHREVEPORT, La., March %.—Tom Jones m2de the other candidates for his job at first base on the Browns club look sick in the game between the Vets and Colts yesterday, which was won by the Vets 4 to 3. Brown played first base for the Vets. Jones covered the first sack for the Colts and the way he worked was a revela- tion to the men who have been predict- ing that Brown or possibly Criss will replace Jones at first on the regular team during the coming season. Jones had 11 put-outs and two assists. The latter were difficult chances, Tom getting fast bounders by fast starts. Out of four times at bat Jones got two hits and, besides, stole a base. Con- Sidering that the game was a_ well- played one and that batting was at a premium, Jones had a great after- noon. Graham pitched for the Vets. The Colts got nine hits off his delivery but could not bunch their raps. The Vets got but seven hits off Barney Pel- ty, but most of them came in the first and second innings before Barney could get warmed up. ; The Vets got away without a break( while Wells in left field is the only Colt charged with an error. Jimmy Williams did some good fielding for the Vets. He got four chances and handled all of them in fine style.

MAY GO ABROAD Meyers Plans Organizing Team to Compete in Olympian Games.

-ohn C, Meyers, manager and pro- moter of the Aud:torium swimming pool, Which will open May 1 at Cook and Channing avenues, is planning to send a team of swimmers to London next September to compete in the Olympic games swimming championships. Meyers has not decided whether the ‘team will be an All-American team or a St. Louts team. It is probable that the A. A.

As was expected, Otto Schwarz of the Missouri A. C. won the 100-yard West- ern A. A. U. swimming championship race at the Central Y. M. C. A. last night in easy style. The time was Im. 5 1-6s. Charles Grimes ofthe Central Y. M. C. A. and Gwynne Evans of the M. A. C. were Schwarz’s strongest competi- tors. Schwarz let both men beat him away from the mark. Both men had almost pumped themselves out at the end of the first lap, while Schwarz, who had been swimming along in a con- fident manner, caught and passed both men on the third lap. From then on it was only a question of how much Schwarz would win by. Grimes and Evans were never able to get out of Schwarz’s wash and, al- though both men tried hard, Otto won by about two yards with plenty in re- serve. Grimes and Evans had a pretty fight for second, Grimes winning by a narrow margin. In a 20-yard preast-stroke Schrimpf defeated Kitchen. are of the Central Y. M. Goessling of the M.

(Hans) Wag- ner was no longer a mystery to the public. the name of Carnegie, the patronymic of the world’s most famous baseball player will go thundering down the corridors, ete., ete. Yes, even Barney Dreyfuss tearfully acknowledges ‘it. Hans Wagner has taken up the higher education and will hereafter decline to further educate the unwashed fans how it is done. Heart and soul, and to some extent, the purse- strings, are intertwined, the mighty Hans will teach the young idea how to bat, to fleld and to steal bases, all part and parcel of the curriculum of the Car- negle Technical School of Pittsburg. He is now as good as a member of the fac- ulty of that institution. The detaile—numbe rof lectures per week, remuneration per lecture, and so forth—were settled last week, the Car- negie Union informs th public, when the great Honus was @riven to the Institute n his $3500 auto and after a conference announced that he was on the reserve list and would sign in a few days. No disability clauses were inserted in the contract, it is learned, and service ex- tends from season to season. Andrew Carnegie, it is said by his most intimate assoc'ates, has about concluded that the common pee-pul can be better reached in an educational way via the diamond than the public library. Reports from the latter indicate that the latest works on sports are more

thumbed than those on anthropology. Hence the two lectures a week to be delivered by Prof. Wagner, G. A. B. P. This degree—Greatest American Rall Player—may in time be bestowed by the Carnegie Institute. By way of cinching the job, Honus

Times Dur | RANK CORNET of St. Louis ‘University, an 18-year-old boy who has been taking part in athletic events for a little over two years, gave the great- est exhibition of sprinting last Friday night at the St. Louis University indoor athletic meet that has probably ever been witnessed in St. Louis, This is a rather broad statement considering that during thé World’s Fair some of the greatest athletes from all over the world competed in the Olympic games- When an athlete equals a world’s sprinting record three times during one evening and wins four races, his speed must be conceded. The official record hook of the Amateur Athletic Union credits Richard Murray of St. Louts, W. D. Eaton of New York and Victor S. Rice of Chicago, as being joint holders of the record for 650 yards in- doors, .6 2-5s. Ties the World’s Record. In his heat of the 3 yards handicap, from running aa In 2-5s. dash same time.

Louis University relay team of four men for the contest with the C. B. C. team. Cornet more than did his share and St. Louis U. won this event. Nine firsts out of nine events, competing against the best athletes in St. Louis in an open meet, is certainly a great per- formance. Cornet hopes to become the outdoor 100-vard champéon in about three or four years. When Archie Hahn, former world’s champion sprinter, was in St. Louis last year he was impressed with Cornet’s work. He told Frank to stick to the indoor dashes until he is about 21 or 22 years of age and then to branch out as an outdoor man. Hahn stated that 100 yards outdoors would be too hard on an 18-year-old boy. Cornet has the speed for 50 yards and |s gaining the experience. When he branches out for the outdoor work he should make good. Cornet is the son of Henry L. Cor- net, a well-known local real ¢éstate man and former president of the Real Estate Exchange, residing at 4619 Mc- Millan avenue. Four Years at Varsity. The son has attended St. Louis Uni- versity for four years. He started in with the track team in the gymnasium several years ago, but it was not until 19066 when Edward B.

By unanimous vote the Council has thrown upon the House of Delegates re- sponsibility for the creation of a com- mission to regulate rates imposed by the public utility corporations of St. Louis. A bill giving the Mayor authority to select a commission of three members, who may employ an expert at a salar\ of not more than $10,000 a year, will be sent to the touse, Friday. Its passage by that body is not expected.

John T. McMahon, having qualified for the Heavyweight Sweepstakes by walking two and one-half miles in 69:22 and pulling down a $300 purse, has re- tired permanently from that branch of sport. McMahon weighs 221 pounds, and doesn't care to weigh any less if long- distance walking is necessary to reduce his flesh. Followed by a carriage containing abundant refreshments, and cheered by 100 other pedestri- 4ns, McMahon Walked from Eighth and Olive Streets to the Blair Monument at the.entrance to Forest Park, to win a wager.

He put up $125 to McMahon's $0 that McMahon couldn't walk it in less than an hour. The word went out that there was easy money at McMahon’s place, and before night McMahon had made bets with Frank Foster, P. J. Carmody and George Rippey amounting in all to $300. The walk began at 5 o’clock Sat- urday night from McMahon's Ss a- loon. The bettors and their friends were in two cCar- riages, while a crowd of 100 per- sons started on foot. McMahon was in his shirt sleeves. He walked west on Pine street to Grand avenue, and when he got there he was panting and blow- ing like a por- poise. He turned south on Grand to Lindell boulevard, and then west. The downward declivity there helped some. At Sarah street it looked as though McMahon couldn't put his feet forward half a dozen times more, and his friends crowded solicitously near. He waved them back, he could get more aftr, set his teeth, threw his head forward and strode on. Perspiration rolled from him. After that McMahon got his “second wind,”’ and he did very well until close to the end of the journey, when he al- most gave out again. He was cheered to the echo at the finish.

Would Take Away Ali Admin- istrative Functions and Make Members Legislate.

The House of Delegates is a “bird,” but it would be all right if it had its wings clipped, thinks Attorney Charles Nagel, who spoke on ‘“‘Charter Revision” at the North St. Louis Citizens’ Asso- ciation dinner at the Mercantile Club. Mr. Nagel Wednesday explained his attitude toward the much discussed proposition to abolish the House. Tells Reason for Opinion. “I told the Association that in my opinion the wovernment of the city should be as close to the people as possible,” he said. ‘‘The House of Dele- gates should continue to exist, but all administrative powers should be taken out of its hands and it should be left free to exercise purely legislative func- tions. “Under the head of administrative functions would come all public improve- ments, such as streets, sewers and build- ings. Instead of leaving these matters in the hands of the delegates, the better way would be to appoint a com- Has New Franchise Pliam. “TIT would not take away from the Municipal Assembly the power to grant franchises but I would have the charter amended so that no franchise could be granted until i had been favorably passed upon by a commission.” At the dinner Mr. Nagel criticised the management of the City Hospital, which, he said, is onty a school for the training of young doctors. Assistant Health Commissioner Winn replied, stating that the death rate in the City Hospital is lower than in-«any other municipal hospital in. the United States. FINDS HER SON IN GYPSY | CAMP 8 YEARS AFTER HE WAS LOST IN GALVESTON STORM Boy Swept From Raft by Wave and Carried 50 Miles Is Restored. Special to the Post-Dispatch. GALVESTON, Tex., March 25.—Mrs. Margaret Reynolds of Shreveport, La., has recovered her 12-year-old son, Charles, whom she mourned for seven years as dead. At the time of the Galveston storm the family lived here and their home was destroyed. The mother and her 4-year- old son were swept from a raft. The mother was rescued, but the child was swept away and believed to have perished. Search among the hundreds of dead bodies of children was made, but none could be identified as Charies. A few days ago the mother heard of a boy traveling with a gypsy band, who claimed his. parents had been been drowned in the Galveston flood. She traveled overland for two days and overtook the band in Western Louisi- ana and identified her son by birth- marks. He did not know his mother. The child had been carried nearly 50 miles by the storm and deposited on a farm on the mainland and was sent to an asylum. He was given to a family tn Misouri to adopt, but six months ago ran away from home and joined the gypsy band and came South and passed within a mile of where his mother was.

OSSING CRUSADE ES MANUFACTURERS “naslterm Thee ‘8 RRO

eee Business Men Point Out Places Dan- gerous to Life and Limb Where Drivers Marvelously Es- cape Trains.

Manufacturers in North St. Louts, where death lies in wait for teamsters who have to drive across Second street on their way to and from factories and warehouses, are pleased at the ef- fort which is being made to force the Wabash and the Terminal railroads to instal gates and employ watchmen at dangerous grade crossings. For nearly 20 blocks north from Cass avenue on Second street there is no pro- tection for pedestrians or drivers at any of the streets leading to the river. One of the most dangerous of these crossings is that at Second and Tyler streets, where the big factory of the J. H. Conrades Chair Co. is situated. Gates and Man “Needed. “This is an extremely busy corner,” said J. H. Conrades Jr., to a Post-Dis- patch reporter Wednesday, ‘and by all means it should be provided with gates and a watchman to tend them. “The tracks of both the Wabash and the Terminal run along Second street. Many trains pass every day and there is a great deal of teaming on Tyler street. Everything possible should be done to prevent accidents.” At this crossing there is a very steep grade running to the river. The bells and whistles of the locomotives are re- lied on to warn teamsters of approach- ing trains. Buildings Shut Off View. On either side of Second street there are tall buildings which shut off the view up and down the railroad tracks. A driver approaching Second street from the west with a loaded wagon would find it almost impossible to stop in time to avoid being struck by a train. Another of the dangerous North St. Louis crossings is that at Second and Mullanphy streets, where hundreds of wagons pass every day. At Collins and Cass avenues there a rr ee ree + eee,

Chief Creecy stated to a Post-Dispatch reporter Wednesday that he will attend the meeting of the Municipal Assembly’s joint committee on Railroad Crossings Friday, as cited to do by Secretary Mockler of the City Council, provided he is not too busy. The members of the Police Boardaéwil] also appear before the committee in re- sponse to a citation, providing also they are not too busy. Friday, however, is a very busy day in the Police Department. It is the only day in the week that the Police Board meets to try patrolmen who have violated the manual, and therefore Friday is indeed a ae “ny for the police. Appropriation! Wotiiiig ast The Chief refutes the statement that the Police Department has only recent- ly become active in the matter of un- protected grade crossings. As to the House of Delegates’ hint that the approach of the Police Depart- ment’s annual appropriation has stirred the police to activity, the Chief says that is all tommy-rot and poppy-cock. “I fail to see any connection between the grade crossing crusade and the Po- lice Department appropriation,’ said Creecy. ‘The extra expense involved in the establishment of the three-platoon system was covered by last year’s ap- propriation. “As to police activity against unpro- tected grade crossings, there !Is nothing new about that. The department hag been making cases against the railroads right along. Made Cases Himeelf. “Long ago when I was captain in the Magnolia Avenue District I made cases against the railroads for not properly guarding their grade crossings. “The reason I send copies of the ordl- nance to the captains the other day was that I was requested to do so by City Attorney Thomas: Anderson. “He and his wife recently had a nar- row escape from being killed at a grade crossing. The ordinance was distributed among the captains simply to refresh their memories. The Police Commis- sioners had nothing to do with the ac- tion. I will gladly furnish the Investigat- ing Committee with the information I have obtained from the reports of the captains and do anything else in my power to aid them.” CHIGAGOAN IS BUNCOED OUT OF $2000 BY RUSE OF “SWITCH THE ROLL” Swindler Takes Unsuspecting Jew- eler Out and Buys Him Drink After, Robbery. CHICAGO, March %.—By “switching’’ a roll containing $2000 and a bundle of brown paper with a covering of nine $1 a confidence man procured $2000 worth of diamonds from Arthur Sicilia, a jeweler.at 178 North Halsted street. ‘The swindler entered the store, in- troduced himself as Dr. John Jordan, purchased the jewels and handed Si- cilia $1999 in large bills. Sicilia counted the money and informed the stranger it’ was $1 short. The man took the roll, counted it and excidimed: “You are right. Here is another dol- lar.”’ He took a dollar from his pocket and Wrapped it about a begus roll, which he held concealed in the other hand, and handed it to Sicilia. Sicilia tossed the money into a drawer and‘at the stranger's invitation accom- panied him to a saloon, where they each drank a glass of beer. On his return Sicilia discovered the swindle.

STREET LIGHTS PUBLICLY OWNED. The City Hall electric plant is said to have paid for itself in less than two years. If there is a disposition to relieve the municipality from the exactions of the North American Trust it is desir- able that estimates be made as to the cost of street lighting in whole or in part by means of a publicly owned system. It usually happens that in enterprises of this kind too much is aftempted and failure results. There are visionaries everywhere who imagine that public ownership is an end to be achieved et any cost, whereas it is no more than a means to the end. The City Hall plant might be considerably enlarged at no great cost and an experiment in street lighting entered upon which would be of value in many ways. It would easily demon- strate the cost of service and it would afford an object lesson in other directions. As the largest consumer of electricity, the mu- aicipality might properly enough manufacture its own current without engaging in the business for It is easily possible that such a public work might be so well performed that the best of arguments for an extension of the service would be furnished, but that is a matter for the future. Our municipalizers would show better judgment and more acceptable ideas of management if they would be content to begin operations on a small scale and depend for growth upon demonstrated efficiency and capacity. The extension of the City Hall plant for street lighting purposes, even if it were to cover only a restricted area, would be justifiable by way of experimentation, and it might lead to greater things. TAKE THE SCHOOL BOARD INTO COURT. -The controversy between Factory Inspector Sikes and President Magoon of the Board of Edu- cution involves some small personal mo- tives, no doubt, but the phase of it having an in- terest to the people is wholly and severély legal. Both are public officers and both are accountable to the law. It is important, therefore, that the disagree- ‘ment be taken into court for settlement with the ‘least possible delay. In pointing out dangerous

' public school buildings and ordering that they be closed or reconstructed, Mr. Sikes appears to be / acting within his authority. The Board of Edtca- . tion, in defying him, may feel that it also has egal warrant for its action, One or the other is Wrong, and the courts must settle the point. ~~ Baw or no law, there is scant room for argu- ment as to what should be done in a case of this kind. very school building should be safe- guarded, no matter whose feelings are hurt or whose pride is ruffied. It is nothing less than scandalous that the Board of Education should hesitate for an instant to enter upon a work so essential] to the’ public welfare and so necessary to protect itself from public criticism. If the State of Missouri shares its sovereignty with the Board of Education the courts will soon discover the fact. If it does not do so they will speedily find a way to execute the laws now plain- ly violated in the cases of most of the school buildings of the be: WILLIAM BRYAN AND ‘ROGER SULLIVAN.

STATE, NOT NATIONAL, AGGRESSION. To understand fully the scope and meaning of the decision of the United States Supreme Court in the railway rate cases it is necessary to bear in mind the fact that in hearly every instance where legislation of this kind was passed the States assailed an elementary national right. There are men who will attempt to make it appear that the Court has invaded the sphere of the States and ruthlessly swept away some of their dearest rights. Nothing of this sort has been done. The States were the aggressors, the States invaded the sphere of the nation, the States, nullified Federal laws, and the Court has rebuked them and pronounced their work worth- less. That is the story in a nutshell. There is not a word in this judgment which impairs in the slightest degree any legitimate power of the State. States may regulate corpora- tions and States may fix rates, but regulation and rates must be reasonable, they must not be confiscatory, and there must be no attempt, di- rect or indirect, to deny to citizens rights guar- anteed to them by the Constitution of the United States. In nearly every case of railway legislation of late an effort has been made, either by the im- position of destructive penalties or by plain pro- vision of law, to prevent interstate corporations from exerolsing their right to take their cases into the Federal Courts. This is the wrong which the Supreme Court has rebuked. It was recessary that it should be rebuked or we should soon have had nullification by States on a gran- der scale than ever before. There is no excuse at this late day for legisla- tive assumptions of this kind. Nothing but dem- agogy and timidity enables agitators to carry State assemblies en masse in favor of policies which every man of intelligence must know wil] be unavailing and mischievous. The States can- not set aside national law and national rights. No great wrong can be reached in that fashion. Considering the inexcusable blunders made by the legislatures of so many States in dealing with the evils of railway management, it must be said that they often appear to have been dishonestly contrived in the interest of the corporations them- selves. Men who knowingly incorporate fatal de- fects in legislation cannot be regarded as faith- ful servants of the people. a ip he ee ST. LOUIS NOT A HOT TOWN. They had a great limerick contest in Philadel- phia recently and the prize went to the man who supplied the last line in the following: There's much to be done for the town, Some evils, perhaps, to put down. Now what would you do If ’twere all left to you?— “I'd proclaim, not assail,its renown,” Philadelphia is not the only city which should take this lesson to heart. There are St. Louisans whose careless speech, repeated and exaggerated by others, does much to injure the town in the estimation of outsiders. To mention only one thing, it may be said that St. Louis is known almost universally as a place whose summer heats are stifling and deadly. It is the popular impression throughout the coun- try that this city and Yuma are in the same class, and it : a that.our own pegple haye spread the rep There are seasons of fierce heat in St. Louis, but 80 algo are there similar periods in Chicago, in Boston and even in St. Paul : We have no summer sickness and the mittality from heat here is smaller than in the average large city. When there is ex- cessive heat in this town there is excessive heat everywhere, and the old joke about “how they must be suffering in St. Louis” has no point at all. Our own people are largely responsible for the fact that Americans in general associate St. Louis with the tropics. They can do much to correct this false impression, founded wholly upon ig- norance, if they will “proclaim, not assail, its renown,”

‘vr, = *% rr WHAT IS A “COLORED GENTLEMAN?” Apropos the definition of gentleman generally, a bewildered correspondent exclaims, What in the name of creation is a “colored gentleman?” Nothing could give us greater pleasure than to answer this question, and we resent at the out- set the notion that a colored gentleman is a mere minstrel figure or personification of the syncopated folk-song with plano accompaniment, Though he is in a sense idedil, he exists in real life, and, like the highest type of. gentlemen of other denominations, the true, high-toned col- ored gentleman is a delicately organized and highly sensitized person of culture, known partly by his attitude towards society and partly by his accent. The ideal colored gentleman is brave, chival- rous, honorable and true, magnanimous, kindly, yet proud as Lucifer, and, north of Mason and Dixon's line, even a shade prouder than the Cau- casians themselves, Like other ideal gentlemen, the colored gentleman is sometimes too proud .to soil his hands with vulgar toil or any other kind of toil, and like other gentlemen, he flourishes best in opulence, where his modish tastes, his sartorial fancies, his savoir-vivre and elevated accomplishments adorn leisure with elegance and diffuse the very atmosphere of refinement. So, too, his gallantry towards his ladies is an- other mark of the Ethiopian Chesterfield. And, lastly, he votes the Republican ticket straight. Let us salute the high-toned and handsome col-' ored gentleman, bearing in mind that with him always, as with other gentlemen, pangpotn is what handsome does.

Ooo Col. Ludiagui Caminita, editor-in-chief of our disesteemed contemporary, La Questione Sociale o* Paterson, N.

To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. I noticed the various letters in your paper in regard to the definition of a Southern gentleman with much amusement. And I was truly glad to see that no Southern man answered the inquiry. In fact, it is. useless to do so, for everyone knows the difference between a Northern man and a Southern man, but there is one thing I would like for some of my Northern brethren to answer: Today I noticed in your paper where Mrs. Keough of Cabanne said six col- ered gentlemen called upon her in regard to buying her property.

I gave up my last one, thinking I could easily get a place as house- keeper in a widower’s home or where I could have entire charge, but after trying faithfully for four weeks, I’m still boarding and with other expenses my funds are almost exhausted. I’ve had a number of answers when I'd advertise, but from men who are not looking for a worthy person. UNFORTUNATE.

The Old, Old Trouble. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. A recent order issued by Col. E. J. Spencer, Firat Regiment N. G. Mo., forbidding the members of the eight companies from entering the Armory except on their drill, is @ continuation of the trouble whfch_ has stirred that regiment for a number of years, and kept what should be a crack infantry regiment down to a mere makeshift of a battalion. Same old story, fighting among themselves; the officers get all, the men nothing. If they want to use the whole Armory for an officars’ clubroom, why don’t they disband the regiment and have it? As for the un- desirable members who make the Armory a loaf- ing place, they could be made to leave and stay away if they had a custodian who understood his business and wanted to work. OLD GUARD.

A Rejoinder to the Submerged. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. For the benefit of those who are not posted, will say that I represent one of the largest companies in the lumber business, having eight sawmills in the South, and until the money shortage last fall we were paying $2 to $2.60 for ordinary labor. As these mills were under cover, not only did weather not bother them, but they could work nights if they cared to. Have traveled Kansas four years, and positively know that harvest hands have been in de- mand there every summer during this time at $2 per day and board, and in emergency $3. I don’t think my former letter cast any reflections on the Germans as a class. Some men hever do get good pay, even though help ig in demand, and our Sub- merged friend may be one of them. Would like to know if harvesting and mill labor have been two of his positions of trust, J. R. LATTA,

“Family Expense Table.” To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. In reply to “Interested” and “W. G. Croghan,” will say it would be difficult to give a daily menu to illustrate how.a family of three can live on $17 a month, as we like everything, especially vege- tables, and have always two and sometimes three (or salads) for dinner. For breakfast we have oat- meal or some of the various “breakfast foods’ with milk, bacon or eggs or: herrings or batter cakes, sometimes oranges, berries or prunes or stewed fruit or bananas. If there were potatoes or cabbage left over from dinner, we like it fried. For lunch I take sandwiches, egg, sardines or onions and bread and butter with preserves.. We have tea or coffee with every meal. Dinner ¢onsists often of stewed meat and soup. We often have rice dumplings or noodles. Ten or fifteen cents’ worth of meat makes enough for two days’ dinner, especially if made into pile or curry (Indian curry). We never buy pie, but bake

PRINCE SAGAN FOUND. LITTLE ROCK, Ark., March 2.— There is no doubt about the local sus- pect being Prince Helle de Sagan. The Prince admitted his identity when seen at his hotel. He said: “You will wonder what brings me to Little Rock. I will explain. I am thinking of marrying Mme. Gould, the former wife of my cousin, Count Bon! de Castellane. Before entering into thia alliance, I thought I would inspect my financial prospects, I have been tour- ing the Gould system, and will be here today looking over the local yards and terminals.’’ The Prince said the Gould office build- ing in St. Louis made a very favorable impression upon him. ‘You understand,”’ he explained, ‘“‘that we cannot rush into these matches as we did. The times are unusual, and what may seem a very advantageous match may turn out to be only a water- haul. Stocks and bonds are off. Leg- islation, I understand, has been hos- tile. I thought it best to make a per- sonal investigation of the properties, with a view to determining how much of this shrinkage in values is due to the times, and what part of it may be attributed to the condition of the prop- erty itself.’’ Asked about the railroad rate decision in the Supreme Court, the Count said he had already received cablegrams of congratulation from friends in France. IN CLASSIC TIME. Pan wags filling the classic grot with a terrible din. “What in the name of goodness are you doing?” asked Apollo, coming in for his music lesson.

PART IV. ELLA faced a financial stringency. The delinquencies of the flat had all fallen upon her. She owned three-fifths of the furnishings and since Clara’s defection paid three-fifths of the expenses. The fixed charges of rent, light, heat and servant hire were not reduced by the loss of three out of six inmates of the flat; but the food bill was cut in half. Dresses and other ex- penses for Clara's wedding destroyed the last vestige of surplus Bella and Roose had accumulated. They determined | on economy. Lily—no it must have been Pearl at that time, or Mazie; yes, it was Mazie. She was discharged and Mary Fleming restored to charge of kitchen and laun- ary. She came every afternoon and pre- pared dinner for the girls and cleaned up for $10 a month. After dinner was prepared she went home. The girls cleaned the silver and Mary washed the dishes the next day. The girls also pre- pared their breakfast. Bella: watched the grocery bills closely and held Mary to strict account, fearing that Fleming might become 4 charge upon her. The only guest at the dinner table was Dr. Bunce, and he was per- mitted to dine there only at long inter- vals. Instead, he was commanded in emergencies to take the girls out to @inner, which he did willingly enough. Joshua was too willing. That was hig trouble. Bella knew he could be depended on to come at any call and render any service. Had he been more difficult she might have considered f more importance. peti giris hoped to join with them other bachelors of their sex, to divide the expenses of “The Roost.” But the offers were not such as they fancied. The original five had drifted together through business and boarding house acquaintance. None of the other ac- quaintances of Bella and Rose were 80 situated that they were available to fill the vacant places, but they sent friends of their own to inquire and advertising brought others. The high cost of a share in the flat frightened away some; the absence of an elderly lady housekeeper who would lend an air of chaperoned respectability to the flat affected others. And there were those who were looking for larger freedom, but found The Roost more restricted than their boarding houses. Bella's employer, the fastidious ar- biter elegantarum, Dainemont, would have found nothing to complain of in the conduct of the girls in_ the flat. Their neighbors regarded them as pinks of propriety and were much interested in their menage. The mer- ry widow type found no encourage- ment or attraction there. “My, what prim old maids you are!” exclaimed a fiuffy blonde who an- swered their advertisement. ‘I'll bet you keep six cats and live on tea.” “We really couldn't accommodate you,” said Bella so dryly even Rose caught her delicate reference to cats.” But “prim old maids” struck Bella hard. “How old must a woman be to be classed as an old maid?” she asked Bunce. “That depends. Formerly 25 was the line; later 30. Nowadays I should say 40 and let some women out who have passed that age for you know there are always exceptions to any rule. No woman should be called an old maid who is eligible for marriage.”’ “Am I an old maid?” “Not yet.” “When shall I be?’’ “I should say in six or seven years.”’ “I must be ineligible now. I haven't had a proposal in five years.’’ “T am your constant proposer.” “O you! you don’t count.’”’ Yet as she laughingly said this the whole thought of what life would be without Bunce came to her ina flash. “Yes, you count @ great deal and I believe A will marry you after all. I'm very fond of you, Joshua—not in the way I expected to be fond of some man, but’”’— “I'm a@ good sort of habit or a com. fortable shoe.” “Yes, that's {t. I’m tired of working, I want to rest. This flat has got on my nerves. We've been here two years and we've had lots of fun, but it's been a strain on me all the time. It's eaten up every cent I’ve earned. I'm tired of counting pennies. I pe- lieve if I married you, though, it would be largely for your money.” “All right. I won't object.” She mused a long time looking at him the while. “You're getting more bald and redder and fatter. Really, you. need a wife to smanten you up. Your women patients pet you too much. You need care and responsibility, and I need rest.” ° “A very good exchange.” | After a time she said: “I can't under. stand you, Joshua. Why have you pur- sued me #0 faithfully? Was it because I never seemed to care? I know all about the women who have thrown them- selves at your head. Some of them are beautiful, some are brilliant. I am not beautiful or accomplished.”’ “You don't play, sing, paint or write. _ No photographer would send your pic- ture to a prise beauty competition. That's right. But you are beautiful to me. You have a. clean, well-made body; fine carriage, good presence, a thought- _ marked face. You are accomplished too, for you have tact, clean reason, courage, charity and generosity. You are a com- - bination of the best that is in man arid Woman. I began with liking you when _ I recognized your virtues. I grew to be Bites, - your warm admirer and now, Bella, I you.” Bella laid her hand upon his arm. “Att r that speech there is nothing’ for | to do but marry you.” i - = ded to plan for their future. She BT He ‘ald not take this seriously, but his plan- HOW OLD IS CLARA? HERE are five girls in the flat. Rose says: “Our com- bined ages are 132 years. I »am 28. Clara is one-half as old as I am plus one-fourth Bella's age. How old is Clare?” “She's two years younger than me,"" says Vern, “and I’m two years younger than Anna.” Ou another occasion Rose adds this statement: “Anna is four yearg older than Clara, who is two years younger than Vera, who is eight years younger than Bella. I am 28. Clara is half my age, plus one- fourth Bella’s age. All our ages total 132.” « Problem: How old is Clara? The Post-Dispatch offers a prise of FIVE DOLLARS for the best solution. The best of the solutions on the basis of the erroneous statement in the first instalment was by Margie Leonard of 1537 Hogan st.. to whom a check for $5 has been sent. THE PRIZE OF FIVE DOL- LARS IS STILL OPEN and will be paid to the person sending to the Post-Dispatch the best solution of the problem as printed above. Every business woman reaches that point sooner or later when she must give up her work or fall into a sad con- dition of nerves and ineffectiveness. She is not fashioned for the long distance endurance test to which men are ever subject. She is physiologically handi- capped. Dr. Bunce recognized Bella’s danger and adroitly insisted upon the marriage she seemed now to fancy. He found, however, that she was curi- ously set on seeing Rose married first. “Why Rose will never marry,’ he urged. “She isn’t the type men like. She is younger than you, yet leoks a dozen years older. She has a good heart but when that is all you can say of a woman’”’—~ . "rts enough. I'll look after her clothes. Clara used to nag her about the way she dressed and I rather en- couraged Rose in her carelessness be- cause Clara and Vera were so snippy. I'll make Biggers propose.”’ “Tt isn’t clothes.” “That is all a man Just wait and see.’”’ Dr. Bunce had to acknowledge that ‘it’? was only a question of clothes. Bella compelled Rose to buy two new gowns, one for business and one for ‘‘nice,’’ though the strain on their joint purses was terrible. ‘She corseted Rose properly and exercised art on Rose’s hair. She even addressed art to Rose’s somewhat sallow complexion. y. The re- sult was a startling, transformation. The fir#t time Rose entered the office wearing her new business gown Daine- mont hurried forward to meet her, thinking she was one of ‘his set in society. She showed all her big, white teeth in a smile that left him gasping. “Why, Miss Rose, you have been dis- guised all these years as Cinderella. Where did you meet your fairy god- mother?’ Biggers, the office manager, always took his cue from Dainemont—copied him in dress, manner, every way. He copied his startled agimiration of the rejuvenated Rose. Indeed, she was a work of genius— Bella’s genius; but she had good quali- ties all her own; those fine, big teeth, large, heavily lashed eyes and con- sistent good nature. Watched and coached and dressed by Bella she con- tinued to be a picture of beauty to the eye of Biggers. Dainemont, after a journey, was talk- ing with Biggers on office matters. His eye rested on Rose. “T can’t get over her transformation,’’ he said. ‘I like to see a business wom- an dress modestly, as Miss Bella does; but Miss Rose carried it too far, Really, I often wished she were not s0 good at her work that I might feel justified in replacing her; but now that she has allowed herself to be truly seen, I’m proud she’s in our office.” , : “I'm thinking, Mr. Dainemont, I’m thinking’’—— Bigger’s gaze was resting on the distant figure of Rose at her typewriter. “Yes, Mr. Biggers. Of what are you thinking ?”’ ; “If you thought it wouldn’t Inconven- lence you, I'm thinking of addressing Miss Rose.”’ “Really? Why, my dear Mr. Biggers, you could not show better taste. Let me know your fortune immediately.”’ Vera and Anna and Clara came to the double wedding in The Roost...

An Answer to Mrs. Margaret Deland's Pronouncements From a Writer for the Post-Dispatch BY NIXOLA GREELEY-SMITH. RS. MARGARET DELAND, the novelist, in discuss- MM ing ‘The Change in the Feminine Ideal,” de- scended from the rose-wrapped realm of fiction into real lite long enough to give her views on marriage, race suicide and divorce. And very interesting and start- ling views they are. Of race suicide Mrs. Deland satd: We are beginning—just beginning—to say that when parents are unable to support a child in physi¢al and moral and in- tellectual well-being, that to bring such a child into the world for the State or thelr unfortunate relatives to support is so¢tlally criminal. Contrast our mothers’ ideas of large families with that. With them it was Gaantity. not quality. Diverece she. dispased of in this. manner: “If my happiness in remarrying lessens in my ‘brother’s eyes the permanence of marriage, then will I give up my happiness. One hears sometimes a very high™tndi- vidual morality protest that it is base for a man and woman who hate each other to live together. But the tndividual morality which recognizes the baseness of mar- riage without respect and love is not content with legal separation. which will answer every purpose of safety. honor and decency. Here righteous individualism indirectly at- tacks society, because it attacks the permanence of marriage, on which family. State. society and civilization rest. It is obvious that this is at the bottom of our loose divorce laws. It is leaning chastely, under the guise of a high perception of affini- ties, toward free love.”’ : [I wonder if Mrs. Deland has asked herself why, if the individual has the right to refuse to bring children into thesavorld—thus setting her own conception of duty above that of religion—she has nota greater justification in upholding her individual ideal of marriage and divorce. Mrs. Deland says that in cases of irreconcilable marital discord legal separ- ation answers “‘every purpose of safety, honor = and decency.”’ Yet Mrs. Deland is a thoughtful woman in middle life, who has dwelt among human being and knows presumably the strength and permanence of human pas- sions. Does she not know that to separate husbands and wives while forbidding re- marriage, far from tendng to safety, honor and decency, far from turning each suddenly into a plaster saint, drives them without the law. into emotional highwaymen? How many “separated’’ wives have broken up the simple romance of some young girl, often perhaps, unintentionally, py luring her fiance away from his al- legiance? How many ‘‘separated” husbands have taken a greater measure of s0- clety and of affectten from good women than their indetinite status gave them any righi to? : The least sophisticated person mustadmit that these free lances in the realm of emotion are dangerous to honor and decency. If men and women. became sud- denly endowed with affections at the marriage altar, if they as suddenly lost them at the pronouncement of a decree of separation, then indeed divorce might be unnecessary. ~~ But if Mrs. Deland will consider people as they are, not as they ought to be, she will have to admit that legal separation not only does not solve the problem of twe individuals involved, but creates other problems, Divorce tends to limit its victims to the family immediately concerned in it. It is more or less a segre- gation of unhappiness and unrest. Judicial separation merely says that no- where on earth may two human beings find love and happiness within the law, and turns them loose, often young, ardent and undisciplined, upon society to as- sociate with the criminal or prey upon the innocent. To say that individuals must not be divorced, that persons who dwell to- gether in an intimacy which admits of nothing but love or loathing must un- der no circuntstances be parted because of the effect on society, is like claim- ing that a gangrened finger should not be cut off because it would leave the body imperfect. Divorce is social surgery, nothing more. Perhaps in this age there is a tendency to too much of it. Everywheartache is diagnosed as incompatibility and cut out in the courts; every pain called appendicitis and operated for. It is the way of all innovations. After a while we will settle down to a matter of fact acceptance of both knives. They will cease to be fads and become simple facts. Then society will marvel that there were once good and gifted women like Margaret Deland who thought it must carry a social cancer in its bosom merely be- cause it would hurt to cut it out. Meantime, however, those who heard Mrs. Deland’s remarks on divorce and race suicide must marvel why she thinks we may regulate the number o/7 our children and yet refrain from the legal number of husbands or wives. For the law recognizes and enforces divorce. And g00d women have no more right to place themselves above the law and urge others to do 80 than bad women have to hold themselves below it, and sink others to their depth. Mrs. Deland says she would not take her happiness at the expense of her brother's. As society is constituted today, she dines at his expense. clothes herself at his expense, lives in ease and comfort at his expense, and she does only what we all do, while we have a brother alive that is without food and warmth and proper clothing.

Moody of Idaho. “I have never seen an Indian mother or father punish a child, nor have I ever seen an Indian child ery. An Indian child never sobs when hurt. Just an extra snap of the bright, black eyes and a slight frown is all to indicate to the observer that the little fellow is suffering. I have never heard even.an Indian baby cry.” ALL IN NEED OF PRAYER. From the Kansas City Star. The Bishop of Buffalo advises single women to pray for husbands.

The only thing that jingles and is worth while is money, and I haven't got enough o’ that to jingle. It wouldn't make any difference now, how- somever, as there is no news worth men- tloning—except that two men got their heads blown off by a sawmill doller, though I didn't have time to learn their names.

Read why Diapepsin re- lieves the worst case of Indigestion and_ sour, gassy Stomach five minutes. Miserable indeed is the man woman whose digestive system is un- strung—who goes to the table and can- not eat or what little is eaten seems to fill them and jays like a lump of lead in the stomach, refusing to digest. If vou, dear reader, suffer this way and. will put on your wraps now and get from your Pharmacist a 50-cent case of Pape’s Diapepsin and eat one 22-erain Triangule after your next meal you would appreciate, five min- utes after, how long you suffered un- necessarily.

A Case of Diapepsin Wil Cure You of Indigestion Forever. symptoms of a weakened Stomach. Stomach trouble and Indigestion van- ish like snow before the, blazing sun by the use of these Triangules, which are harmless and taste like candy, though they will digest 3000 grains of food the same as a strong, healthy stomach would do it. When Diapepsin works your Stom- ach rests—gets itself in order. Dia- pepsin purifies and sweetens a sour stomach and -freshens the intestines without the use of Laxatives, and what is more it increases the gastric juices. This is what your Stomach is begging for—-more and better digestive juices. This is what makes vou hungry and want to eat. and vou can rest assured what you then eat will be taken care of properly and not left in the stomach to ferment and turn to gas and acid, and poison the breath with nauseous odors, You ought to have Diapepsin about the house always. Should one of your family eat something which does not agree with them, or for a Sour Stom- ach or Excessive Gas, one Trinagule will always give immediate relief. * * * ploved. dizzy or faint | spells,
