=—— CONSUMERS PAY FOR TENANTS “Signers of Guarantee Say Bills Are Presented After Prop- erty Is Vacated. SUIT IS CONTEMPLATED

Landlords Threatened With Loss of Supply Unless They Satisfy Monopoly. UNITED WAR PLANNED Realty Holder Says Bills Were Presented for Persons He Never Knew.

Ten theusand St. Louis property own- ers who guaranteed the payment of gas bills for their tenants are threatened with suit by the Laclede Gas Light Co. These property owners are finding at- tached to their regular monthly gas bills the alleged unpaid bills of their tenants and former tenants, with notice that unless the bills are promptly paid their own gas supply will be out off. The gas company, in lieu of the $ and t10 deposits, will accept the guarantee of the owner of the property that the gas bills will be paid. Some of the guaran- tors now say that the gas company is demanding paymnient not only for gas, but also for fixtures, stoves and heat- ers. Some of the bills are for service alleged to have been rendered long after the tenants removed from the guaran- tor’s property. The bills amount from a few dollars to $200. Property Owner Talks. H. C. Koenig of 3836 Kosciusko street, who owns about eighty houses in St. louis, is one of the many property own- ers of whom the gas company has de- manded payment of the delinquent bills. “Several years ago,”’ said Mr: Koenig to the Post-Dispatch, ‘‘the Laclede Gas Light Co. had its solicitors working in ‘this’ part of the city. “The company induced some of my tenants to take’ gas and then’ came to me and asked me to sign the guaran- “tee. This was more than three years ago, and many of those tenants have moved away and I fave lost track of them. Just recently the gas company began sending me the delinquent bills and threatened to shut off my gas un- ‘less I paid them. Some of the bills were for gas stoves and other fixtures. As I had signed the guarantee merely for the monthly gas bill, I refused to pay. “I sent the company a check for my own gas bill, and it returned it with notice that I would have to pay the delinquent bill. The check was returned a second time, with the statement that my gas would be cut off unless I pa!d up. “I consulted my attorney and _ in- formed the gas company that I would pay only such gas vdills as were in- upy- ing my property, and that 7 ‘oii not pay for any gas stoves or other fix- tures. I told the company I would bring an injunction suit if any attempt was made to out off my gas. Since then the has been accepting ‘my checks and recetpting my gg Did Net *- “Bome of the bills cent a were ‘for people I ‘never heard of and who ‘certainly never were my tenants. Many ‘of the bills were run up after the ten- -ants moved away from my property. “As a matter of fact, I signed the guarantee more as an accommods ‘on for the gas company than for t? ants. - “The understanding was that the g._ “antee was merely to cover one month. } gas bill And that the company wou protect me by refusing to turn on the gas for these people, in case they moved away, unti) all bills were paid.” who have been keeping in with this effort of the gas com- y to enforce the collection of the de- vent bills say that the agents of | Informed them that they uing 10,000 property owners and that the company would sue all eer fons who did not pay. cigs Melders Pinn to Unite. e of the property owners are in favor of forming an organization to false money to fight in the courts this, - Walest move of the Beggs monbpoly. | y othets, rather than fight a suit, ate paying, “although the bilis have Been fun up since the persons for whom they signed the guarantee moved out of their property.

| MAN WITH TWO PACKAGES, ONE CONTAINING LUNCH, ASKS $500 AT BANK, FALLS ASLEEP Frightens Several Tellers,’ but Now He Is Slumbering It Off . ina Cell. Walter Evans of 1937 Utah street called at the Boatmen’s Bank soon aft- er the doors opened Monday morning. He went to the paying teller’s window. “Gimme $500,” he said, with a terrible scowl, He had two kinds of packages—one under his arm. The teller glanced from the scowl! to the package, and just then he thought he heard someoné calling him. So did the tcliers in the adjoining cages. Left alone, Evans made up his mind that he had about enough of what he

intended to buy with the $500. He lay | down on the floor, folded his hands and went to sleep. Chief Creecy was asked to send some policemen quick. He called up Capt. O’Malley at Carr street, and Policeman Kuight was sent down. He first cau- tiovsly removed the package frem un- der Evans’ arm. Then he removed Ev- ans to the Carr Street Station. One package centained Walter Evans’ lunch. The exact composition of the other package is a matter for experts to decide.

“— AUBURN, N.Y... Marth 30.--Chester E.. Gillette today paid the penalty igi the electric chair for the murder of ‘his sweetheart, Grace Brown, whom. he had wronged, and whom he Jured to death under the pretext that he was taking her to the’ marfiage altar to right her wrengs. Just before he walked to the death .chamber he confessed his crimé¢ to his spiritual advisers, the Rey. Henry Mclivray' and Prison Chaplain jler- rick. Within two minutes after the rent was passed through his he Was pronounced dead. The detailed cenfession made by Gi lette was not given out, but it is under. stood to conform “in practically ever$ particular to the circumstantial eviderice presented. at the trial, when the pro secution contended that Gillette fred Grace Brown to Big Meose Lake. in the Adirondacks, rowed out to a. seclud- ed spot on the evening of July 10, ‘1906, killed her with a tennis racquet and cast her body into the water, where it was found the following day. Statement By Cleraymen. Shortly after the ‘contession was mad. and Gillette had been pot to death the Rev. McIiravy and Chaplain Herrick. who had passed the last night with ,the condemned man, gave the following signed statement: “Because our relationship with Ches. CUi'- body unser- [ter Gillette was privileged we 4o not déem it wise to make a detalled state- ment, and simply wish to say that no mistake was madé in ‘his clectrocut!on.” One of Gillette's last acts, according to Chaplain Herrick, was to defend the memory of Grace Brown. He was told last week of the fight his mother was making before Gov. Hughes for & re- prieve. ee Defends Her Memer;, When the story of Dow Sanderson, the “mys@erious wit ” whe attempted to blacken the girls character, «vasa told him, GiNette exclaimed to Herrick and the Rev. Mclliravs: “Gemtiemen, that is 4 lie. It is faise, all of it. Grace Brown was a good giri. That story is untrue.” Gillette's final message read: “Tell mother that I am prepared to meet my God and thet not a singleact now stands | between me and Him. Tell her that I jhave no hard feelitigs against any one, | and I.am very. sorry for the pain and anguish that I have brought upon ber and others.” ¢ Gillette entered the deathhouse at €:1. o'clock. He was atiended by the Rev. pia a along oor hg whe re~]

Benham, on a signal from Dr. Gerin, said: ‘Gentlemen, the man is dead.”’ The Rev. Mr. Meligravy, who. hal been closer to Gillette than any other man, fainted as the electric current was turred on. He was supported from the room. Prepared Statement for Public. Last night Gillette prepared a state- ment which was given out by the War- den after the execution. [t was a brief expression of, regret. for his past life, and a warnipg’ to young men that they might profit, by his ex- periences. It closed with a paragraph indicating that he had made a full con- fession: “There is ot one thing that IT have left undone which will bar me’ from facing my God knowing that my sint are forgiven.’ he wrote, “for I Nave been free antl frank in my talke with my spiritiual adviser.” During the execution Gillette's father and mother, Mr. and Mrs. Frank 8.

Berckman; “never saw him to my know!l- edge, never wrote him a letter, and never wrote anyone else such letters as the morning papers describe. “Silverstein may have been an anar- chist or a Democrat, or a Republican. His political creed doubtless had noth- ing to do with his_plans. I_firmly be- lieve that at some time he had been made a victim of police violence. At some time he had felt the crushing im- pact of a policeman’s club. He was nursing the memory of this wrong when he made this bomb. His tragic act in Union Square was an individual protest against oppression—nothing more or less.”’ Berckman did not hesitate to predict more bomb-throwing. Socialists Biame Police. While the anarchists and organized labor, as represented in the Committee of Unemployed in charge of the demon- stration, repudiated Silverstein and dis- avowed responsibility for his crime, the General Committee of the Socialist Party passed judgment upon the Union Square incident in a long set of resolutions and appointed a committee to investigate the bomb throwing. The committee is headed by Robert Hunter, the wealthy sociologist, who was to be the chief speaker at the Union Square demonstration.

Lewis and Moses Oppenheim- er, all prominent in the Socialist move- ment. Silverstein’s latest statement was drawn from him after he had been ques- tioned enough to kill most men so near death ds he was after the operation. Translated, it was as follows: “My reason for making the bomb, the construction of which took three days, was because a policeman had, some weeks ago, beaten me severely with no provocation whatsoever, and from the time of the beating I resolved to get even with the police. There was no one in the scheme with me. I was all alone. I went to Union Square alone with the intention of doing as much harm to the police as I could. No one else knew about it.”’ Slain Mra No Anarchist. Ignatz Hildebrand, the tailor, w. 0 was killed by Silverstein's bomb, was no as- sociate of the anarchist assassin. He was an unemployed tailor. When told today that the anarchists had offered to pay for the funeral, the widow dried her tears and said: ‘* My husband had nothing fn common with those people. He was opposed to them in life,.and in death they shall have nothing to do with him. I shall bear the expense myse if, and shall take care of myself,’ The police are satisfied that Hilde- brand had nothing to do with the throw- ing of the bomb, unless, as some wit- nesses say, he attempted to prevent Sil- verstein from throwing it, sacrificing his own life to save others.

WILL MEET STRIKERS

Chairman of Labor Commit- tee Thinks Chance of Set- tlement Good.

After the brewers had held a confer- ence at the headquarters of the St. Louls Brewing Association in the Wain- wright Building, C. Norman Jones, chairman of the Labor Committee, an- nounced at 1 p. m. Monday that a meet- ing would be held at 3 p. m., with rep- resentatives of the striking union em- ployes. “There's a good prospect for a settle- ment,’’ Mr. Jones said. It is understood the labor leaders will insist on the Labor Bureau, to fill va- cancies in the ranks of union employes, which will help assure the union shop. That the striking brewery workers are in the right was the unanimous opinion of a special committee of the Central Trades and Labor Union, which reported at a meeting of that body at Aschen- broedel Hall, 3535 Pine street, Sunday afternoon. The report, without a dissenting vote, was approved by the 300 members of the central body. ° The committee consisted “of avid Kreyling, “Lee Woodward, A. Meyer, Joseph Jackson, Philip Hoffer and H. Staudinger. Nearer to Settlement, Addresses were made by Joseph 5. Proebstle, secretary of the Internation- al Union of Brewery Workers. and Jo- seph Fessner, secretary of the local union. The committee sald another confer- ence with the brewers would be held Monday, and that practically only one issue remains to be settled. This is whether the breweries are to be permitted to retain-the men whom it employed to take the places’ of the strikers. The committee stated that, in its opin- ion, the only other important issue was eliminated Saturday, when the Interna- tional Union served official notice on the brewers that the charter of the Priestersbach union of brewery driv- ers had been revoked. Contracts Are Released. It was the opinion of those at the meeting that this action fixes’ the status of the lL'riestersbach man as nonunion workers. One of the points made by the employers throughout the negotiations was that the Priestersbach faction constituted the original union with whom the brewers made a con- tract. The committee believes that the revocation of the charter releases the brewers from their contract wich Pries- tersbach’s mci, ' The committee recommended that all union men in St. Louis be asked to re- frain from drinking beer made at brew- eries affected by the strike. In view of the possibility of a settlement, ac- tion on this was defeated until after a special meeting of the Central Trades and Labor Union, which will be held at 8 p. m. Monday. At -that time the committee will re- port the progress made during the day, and if the strike is not settled, nego- tiations will be called off. Strikers Can Come Back. A conference between the brewers to consider the situation began at noon Monday at the headquarters of the S8*. Louis Brewing Association fn the Fain. wright Building, but it was said that no time had been set for a meeting be- tween the brewers and representatives a the strikers. Norman Jones, who has represented Pes employers in the negotiations, says the brewers are ready to take back the men who walked out. “All that we now desire,’’ he said, “is to keep the men who served us in time of trouble, whom we promised to take care of.’’ PHILADELPHIA BANKER DIES IN FRISCO; DOCTOR SUSPICIOUS Cashier Succumbs in Hotel After Brief Iiness Probably From Overdose of Morphine.

POLICE EXPENSES INCREASE Department Will Cost City $2,- 200,000 Next Fiscal Year. The Police Department will cost the city of St. Louis something like $2,200,- 000 during the fiscal year beginning April 1. The Board of Police Commissioners, in executive session Monday afternoon, is figuring just how much money it will need to run the department until April, 1909, and a rough, unofficial, estimate brings the amount up to the figures quoted above. Last year the department's appropr!i- ation amounted to $1,800,000, of which all but about $500 was expended. Since the the membership of the department has been increased by 300 patrolmen, 390 ser- geants, two captains and two lieuten- ants, which increase adds $200,000 to the annual payroll. The cost of a new station and patrol house, which are to be erected at Page and Union avenues, will also be included in the next appropriation. WIFE LOSES 2 DIVORCE SUITS Mrs. Anna A.

He says Mrs. Parker employed him to burn the house and fixed 2 a. m., Monday as the time to apply the match. — Wilson says he would have done so, had not the police interfered. Mrs. Parker, who ts locked up at the Manchester Avenue Station, denies in a general way that she ordered the house set on fire, but. indignantly refuses to discuss the details of the negro’s story. She is a tall, stately woman, appar- ently 40 years old, who talks with a marked Southern accent, and who says she came to St. Louls six months ago from Cotton Plant, Ark. According to Wilson, Mrs. Parker was losing money in the conduct of the rooming house and concluded a fire would be a good thing, as the furniture was insured for $2000. Wilson says Mrs. Parker suggested the house-burning to him about three weeks ago, after first asking him if he would be afraid to undertake the work. Wilson says he replied that he wouldn't be “‘askeered,”’ and he would do it, as he needed money, but he would not want to do it when there was anybody at home, Mrs. Parker planned to have every- body in the house out Sunday night, Wilson says, and then to convert the furniture into ashes.

LAWYER FINDS POLICEMAN NOI UP ON POK ll Officer Confuses “Straights” and “Flushes,” but Com- rade Qualifies as Expert.

Policeman Carmody of the Dayton Street District needs to read up on the poker manual. Monday he testi- fied about helping Sergt. Collins and Po- licemen Hines, Womack and Slanger raid a game at 2634 Baldwin Street, where 13 players were arrested. Tom Stanton, who defended the accused in Judge Pollard’s court, insinuated that Carmody did not know the difference between craps and poker.. The look on Carmody’s face ‘try me” as plain ag anything. “What's a flush?” asked Stanton. “Five cards after one another—one, two, three, four, five—like that,’’ said Carmody. ‘What's a straight?’ “Five cards of the same suit.” The men taken in the raid had to atuff their fists into their mouths to keep from getting in contempt of court. Questions about a royal flush and a full house dazed the witness and when Stanton asked him what was the dif- ference between hearts and poker he gave it up. Judge Pollard said he was glad Car- mody knew so little about thé game. Hines did better. Stanton found out pretty quick that Hines was a journey- man. ‘“‘Have you ever played poker?’ he asked. ‘‘Sure,’’ said Hines, “lots of times, for money.”’ Owen Buckner and Jake Arthur were fined $10 each. The cases against the others were dismissed. WOMAN HAD NO CHANGE, CONDUCTOR TELLS HER 10 PAY NEXT CAR SHE BOARDS Gives Name and Badge Number and Says Amount Will Be Credited to Him. After a woman passenger boarded a Page car Monday she found to her dis- may that she had nothing smaller than a $10 bill, When Conductor No. 144 called for her fare she opened her purse, showing two bills and a penny. The conductor couldn’t make the change, and said he did not expect to be able to do so before reaching the downtown loop. He left the woman’s seat, and returned presently with one of the envelopes provided for transfer slips. On it he had written the num- ber of the line and of the car, his name, Ira C. Hocker, and his badge number. ‘If you will just put 5 cents inte that,”’ he told the passenger, “‘and give it to the conductor of the next Page car you get on; it will be credited to me. I have already rung up your fare.” The woman was struck with the con- ductor’s ingenuity and with his courtesy. She complied with his request.

The treacherous Meramec River has not yet given up the body of Mrs. Henry Gildehass, who sacrificed her life in an effort to save her 3-months- ola baby at the Whittington ford, near Pacific, Mo. When the swift current overturned the wagon in which she was riding across the stream with her husband, her 3- year-old daughter, Elvira, her baby and John Volz, a farmhand, Mrs. Gildehass, who was a good swimmer, held the baby at arm’s length above her head to prevent it from being drowned. Had she dropped the child she could have reached the shore in safety, but mother love was stronger than the in- stinct of self-preservation. Toa Weak to Hold Child. But her sacrifice was in vain. When she sank for thé third time she was so weak that the current swept the child from her grasp and mother and baby went to death together. An hour before the baby had been christened by the Rev.

Volz held the lines. He urged the team of mules into the water, and they were J halfway across when the wagon turned over. Theodore Stoelzner and George Roem- er were fishing near. the ford. They heard Mrs. Gildehass scream and look- ing up they saw her holding the baby high above her head. Her husband, her aaughter, and the farmhand were in the water and the current was rapidly carry- ing them down stream. Fishermen Hescuc Three. The fishermen jumped into a skiff and went to the rescue. They reached Volz first. He caught hold of an oar. As he was being pulled to the boat the head of little Elvira appeared above the surface within reach of his arm. Volz caught her by the hair and éhe was res- cued with him. Then Gildehass was pulled into the boat. When the men reached the deep water where Mrs. Gildehass was struggling to save her child, she was going down for the last time.

Relatives Returning From Church Find Dinner Ready, Housekeeper Dead.

Miss Annie Horn prepared a good Sun- day dinner for the family of her broth- er, carried in the kindling for the Mon- day morning fire and put the house in order, then lay, down on her bed and shot herself.

They went, and when they returned at noon they found everything in readiness for the meal, but Miss Horn was not visible and she did not respond to their calls. Going into her bedroom, they found her lying on her bed. She had shot herself in the rfght temple. Her broth- er’s revolver was in her right hand. By her side was a satchel containg ing papers relating to some property she owned, and a note in which she said that she was tired _of living because of her increasing deafness. Thoughtful to the Last. Mr. and Mrs. Horn found that Miss Horn had been so thoughtful to the Iast that she had attended to every detail of the household and had even taken the pains to bring in a basket of kind- ling. The only untidiness was about dresser of Mr. Horn. She had disar- ranged the contents in looking for his revolver and did not stop to put things in their former order.

The story of the play makes a sort of “even break” for Casey—in the first act he’s merely the blundering old happy-go- lucky flreman at the Waldorf-Astoria Hotekjn New York, and it’s only in the second act that he takes his long-lost twin brother's place as King of Lalla Pa Zaza, but even then he remains Casey, much to the delight of his es- tablished following. They wouldn’® “swop'’ Casey for all the Kings in the world, you know. , Johnny Ray knows it, too, wherefore he’s a regular Mrs. Micawber in refus- ing to desert Casey under any cond!- tiors. The only change he essays is to make that familiar character increas- ingly funny each successive season. Thus far he has succeeded in this cu- mulative sequence—King Casey now goes on record as the most absurdly ir- resistible of all the Caseys thus far brought into ridiculous being.

"WRONG PRISONER GIVEN FREEDOM lungs at critical moments of Casey’s life, the never-failing richness of the Johnny Ray .brogue and the perplexed and puzzled backward kick of tre rieht leg of Johnny Ray that does the busi- ness—these are the essential thinga of Casey's being and they never fail to bring down the house. Back o? them, however, is a genuine wholesome con- e@dy studied from real life--Casey is a a: native wit and an accidental sort of wis- dom as an egg is of meat, and the touch of naturalness is felt through a!l the, texture of burlesque. He deserves every laugh he gets—and last night the iaugls Were countless. Emma Ray and the supporting crm- pany gave the star a good support, ‘there’s much catchy singing, a lot of graceful dancing and some pretty stage pictures presented, but Casey is the whole show in spite of these reinforce- ments.

HUSBAND GIVES BLOOD TO SAVE WIFE: DESPERATE OPERATION OF NO AVAIL Honduran Consul-General to New York in Dangerous Condition After Transfusion. NEW YORK, March 30.—With’ the hope of saving the Ife of his wife, Fimilia, Dr. Louis de Lazo, Counsel- General of Honduras in New York, gave his own blood, submitting to the rare operation of transfusion. The desperate expedient failed, however, and the woman, who was 2% years old, died yes- terday in the French Hospital. Her husband is seriously ill, both from the effects of the operation and the shock of his wife's death. Despite her youth, Mrs. De Lazo wes the mother of five children and her health had not been robust for a long time. The operation was. performed last Wednesday in the presence of a dozen surgeons. Aw artery In Dr. De Lazo's arm was severed and a like incision was made in the arm of his wife. Then both limbs were bound tightly together in order that the transfusion should take place. Following the operation there was an apparent improvement in rs. , De Lazo’s condition, and it was said fhat the experiment had proved a success, but an unlooked for complication arose when pneumonia set tn and she gradu- ally sank until death came. The body will be taken to Guatemala for burial. WARD M’ALLISTER’S SON | NEAR DEATH IN HOSPITAL Namesake of New York’s Famous Social Leader Undergoes Opera- tion in San Francisco.

Decision to Reopen Injunction Proceedings Reached at St. Louis Meeting.

Injunction proceedings to prevent the further operation of the 2-cent fare law in this State are to be renewed before Federal Judge McPherson at Kansas City as a result of the conference of the genera! solicitors of all Missouri lines Monday at the offices of A. G. Cochran, vice-president and general so- licitor of the Missouri Pacific-lron Mountain system. At the meeting the opinion was pressed that every Missouri road woud show a radical decrease of revenue siice the new laW went into effect, June Iv 1907. The reports submitted by the audit- ing departments show that ten Missouri roads have suffered an aggregate loss in passenger revenue of $3,000,000 during the past six months. Hadley’s Contenticn. Attorney-General Hadley contends that this decline is due to the natura! traffic recession, every line of trade and transportation being similarly affected. Mr. Cochran presided at Monday’s conference, which’ was attended by James L. Minnis, representing the Wa- bash; Thomas R. Morrow, Atchison, Topeka & Santa Fe; Frank Hagermann, Missouri, Kansas & Texas; Judge O. M. Spencer, Burlington Route, and W. F. Evans of the St. Loujs & San Francis- co, and others. Mr. Hagermann said to a Post-Dis- patch reporter that the railroads felt greatly encopraged over the decision of tue United States Supreme Court in the Minnesota case. : Given 90 Days’ Trial. “When the 2-cent law was originally considered,’ said Attorney Hagermann, “Judge McPherson, at the instance of the railroads and the State authorities, suspended an injunction pending a 9%0- day trial of the rate. At the end of that period the railroads were not ready to submit their case, but the motion for an injunction can be made at any time. “T do not know that at any time the railroads had abandoned their intention to contest the 2-cent law. It was sim- py a question of waiting until the. fig- ues could be obtained to demonstrate whether it is equitable.” @X- For 62 consecutive Sundays without a break, the Sunday Post-Dispatch has been first in advertising.

Nothing to Say About His Own Prospects for Nomination.

William Jennings Bryan, candidate fur ithe Democratic nomination for Presi- dent, told a Post-Dispatch reporter ar - Union Station Monday morning that the recent “panic’ robbed the Republicans of one of their most effective campaign arguments. Mr. Bryan said it could no fonger be declared on the stump that 4 | panics and empty dinner pails were the result of DdMocratic administrations. Mr. Bryan declined to discuss his cau- , didacy for the presidency or to express | himself regarding the presidential boom of Gov. Johnson of Minnesota. He was “ equally reticent as to the Folk-Stone ‘fight for the United States senatorship fn Missouri. Kuows ee a Missouri. “T suppose,” sai? Mr. Bryan, “that Gov. Johnson of Minnesota is like many other American citizens. He would like to have the Democratic nomination for President, if he could get it. “TI do not know anything about politi- eal conditions in Missouri. I have not kept traci. of the senatorial contest be- tween Gov. Folk and Senator Stone, and do not know anything about it. ‘Where ‘ignorance is bliss, ’tis folly to be wise.’ ‘a “The financial depression has robbed | the Republican party of one of its most effective campaign arguments.

I suspect, too, there are a good many empty dinner pails. > Argument Fraudulent. “The empty dinner pail has been used as an argument against Democratic pol- ficies. Of course the Republican argu- ment on panics and empty dinner pails was fraudulent. The recent panic, I sus- ee pect, will put an effective stop to this kind of campaigning. | “T have nothing to say about my own _ prospects for the Democratic nomina- - tion. I suppose the Democrats will se- tect their own candidate, and whoever _ 4s selected will satisfy me.

Copyright, 1908. by the Press Pub. Co. (New York World.) ST. PETERSBURG, March 30.—All the jails in St. Petersburg are so overtaxed the authorities are at their wits’ end because of the increasing number of pris- oners. The Minister of Justice has asked for a greatly increased appro- priation from the Treasury, specifying that the money will be used to build new jails and enlarge the present ones. Accompanying the plea for money is the statement that in quarters built for a maximum capacity of 107,138 prisoners, there are housed at the present time 154,187 men, women and children. Epidemic diseases are carrying off hundreds of prisoners. The mortality among the very young and the very old is appalling. The Minister of Justice suggests that army barracks not now in use be turned into temporary jails. The Minister of War replies that more barracks are needed because more soldiers are required. Meantime, the peasants of the Volga and the upper waters on the Don are starving. The Government announces that it cannot reach them with the necessities of life. Special Notice to Women.

JOBS HELD Bt ALIENS WILL BE GIVEN VOTERS Pennsylvania Railroad Orders Discharge of All Men Who Can’t Cast Ballot.

Special to the Post-Dispatch. PITTSBURG, Pa., March 30.—All workmen who are not citizens are be- ing discharged by the Pennsylvania Railroad, to make way for voters. This has led many railroaders to be- live that a movement is on foot to use the army of workmen employed by this and other corporations to help elect a president favored by the cor- porate interests. When such an order was issued at Wall, Pa., some of the foremen ob- jected to discharging competent for- eigners, but a peremptory command was issued to replace them with citi- zens. The Pennsylvania Railroad employs fully i80,000 men in normal times, and many other states through which the lines pass are considered doubtful. $1,500,000 STOLEN IN TWO YEARS BY TRUSTED EMPLOYES Pittsburg Concerns Have Been Looted by Men They Placed Implicit Confidence in. Special to the Post-Dispatch. PITTSBURG, Pa., March 30.—More than a million and a half dollars has been stolen from Pittsburg concerns during the last two years by trusted employes. The first of the big thefts was when Edward C. Cunliffe, messen- ger for the Adams Express Co., got away with $101,000 which was being for- warded to a Cincinnati bank. He is now in the Eastern Penitentiary. The express company recovered most of the money. Next came the looting of the Union Trust Co. by C. S. Hixson and Clifford Wray, who got away with $385,000, every penny of which they iost “playing the market” and in other forms of gamb- ling. Last week Henry Reiber and John Young were arrested charged with robbing the Farmers’ Deposit National ‘Bank of $1,106,00uv. Cc. L. Reiber, a brother of Henry, was cashier of the Penn Bank when it failed in the early eighties. Its president, William Ridole, had tried to get con- trol of the Standard Oil Co., as Henry Reiber and John Young tried to get control of the Pittsburg Lead and Zinc GRIEF KILLS FIELD PENSIONER Oldest Employe of Merchant to Be Buried Near His Grave.

CARDINAL S AND ~ BROWNS START FOR OLD TOWN E MeCloskey’s sMenin Great Form for Opening of the Spring Series. en ee BY JAMES CRUSINBERRY. DALLAS, Tex., March %.--The Car- | Bavels arrived here today for a game, to Muskogee tonight. They t and eager for the season to Shen, and that opening battle with Mc- s Browns cannot come too soon to mult the National Leaguers.

He may get in the e before that time, but he will not fein condition to give the club all he is capable of doing. Cardinals May Be Surprises. One of the surprises of the year is likely to be the playing of the Car- dinals. There very few fans and critics who realize the change of the Cardinals from last year. It is not -the same team at all. Sizing it up man for man with all the other teams of the league, there is no logic in the state- ment that the Cardinals have no chance to finish out of last place. %, Seiecioskey may not have the best flelding and biting I wees in the league, ‘but he has a strén am in both these departments. He fas no Johnny Kling a catcher, but he has a couple of ve ones who have a great deal more enthusiasm in the game and more abil- ity than some who are drawing major league salaries now. Then when it comes to pitchers, there is not a single club in the league that is any better off unless perhaps the Chicago Cubs. So, with the best pitchers in the league and strong in every. other de- partment, there is no reason to believe the Cardinals are going to drag as they did last season. Just about one more season of McCloskey schooling and the Cardinals are likely to be contenders for the National League pennant. a t as - - \Medleer’ s Squad ls Due Here lues- day For Prae- tice at Park. ——eE Special to the Post- Dispatch. - SHREVEPORT, La., March 30.—The Browns depart for home at 12:55 p. m. today, going via Texarkana, where con- nections will be made with the I. M. Cannon Ball. When stakes were pulled up there was not a sick man in the party. The tourists will roll into Union Station at 7 a. m. Tuesday and go to the Planters and rest up until after lunch, when all hands will break into the home grounds for a final Qvork-out. Manager McAleer has decided to con- tinue the tilts between colts and regu- lars, beginning Tuesday afternoon, daily until Saturday. The games played behind barred doors, says James. Expect Much of Bailey. McAleer is very sweet of the fair- faced, raw-boned Texas phenom, Billy Bailey. Theuvugh Bill reported much under weight and a very sick fellow, McAleer felt confident that he would finally round to and be ready when the team departed for home. His con- jecture was correct. Bailey cut loose of last week and Sunday he announced that his whip was feeling strong as ever. Bailey is 21 years ofd and has been pitching professional ball for three years. Local enthusiasts got a glimpse of him last fall. His success in winning six straight games from the big leaguers earned him a locker in the Browns clu®house before the season closed. Bailey pitched his first big game against ashington on the road and trimmed the Nationals, 2—1. His next out was in Philadelphia. He held Davis & Co. down to four hits and beat them, 8—2, taking Dygert’s taw. In Boston a week later he tackled the ex-champs and won out, 21. On the return trip he made his appearance’ in Cleveland, and was opposed by Addie Joss, but the Browns won, 4—3. He finished the season by twirling two games against Detroit. winning both by scores of 4—1 and 3—1. Dinneen Is Doubtful. ‘ It cannot be stated whether big. hand- some William Dinneen is in condition to. pitch, and has regained.his “lost soup bone.’’ _Dinneen -had the advan- tage of the 10-day sojourn at french Tick Springs. He departed from “St. as outward appearances go, looked fit. He has done very little real pitching. In fact, he has not appeared in a single practice stunt. He has confined his ef- forts to fielding, fungo batting and an occasional warm-up. With big Powell, who is fit*tas can be, Bill has been trotting in and out to the grounds each and every day. Ap- parently he seems confident that the salary wing is O K, and is endeavoring to work up speed and strength of mus- cle on the roads. His arm may have re- covered its strength and cunning—and it may not.

C. at the rate of about 2 cents per punch, and afterwards rub’ down the men that punched him. Collins is helping the Missouri A. C. amateur boxing team get in condition for the tournament at Cincinnati. In all, Collins boxes about 16 men a day, as he is willing to put on the gloves with any one who wants to. Collins is net like the average fighter. He has no beautiful features to spoil, and has the Missourl mule beaterm a mile for patience. The amateur boxers punch Collins and the club members land on ‘“‘Birdlegs’’ and they cut loose as hard as they can. The orly means of defense that Callins uses now and then is,to put his cast-steel cranium in the way of one of his tormentors’ swings when they get too strong. Then there is a sound of a erunching bone in the win ogg fellow’s hand and it is time to quit, Collins, after he boxes with each man, gives him a good rub down with alco- hel, or witchazel, after which he takes on the next in line. For all this, Col- lins receives the sum of $1.50 a day.

SHREVEPORT,”* La., March 30.— The distinct feature of the Browns’ Sunday farewell 3~1 victory over Shreveport was the masterly manner in which the two great twirlers, Waddell and Criss, performed. Waddell’s feat of fanning nine of the enemy within four innings was beautl- ful to view. He wanted to work the entire game, but McAleer refused him. He had wagered he would fan 20 of the minor leaguers. Criss’ five-Inning exhibition, though not as spectacular as Rube’s, was just as effective. He had burninig speed, perfect control and did not allow a run. and only one hit. Not a local reached first until after one was down in the ninth inning. Said McAleer: ‘“‘I’m the happiest man in town. Rube showed me some cham- pionship twirling today. Yes, | got stung by Philadelphia. It is to laugh. This is the best ball club from every standpoint I ever bossed. We're ready for McClosky’s men. Clear the road; we are shooting home.’ Watch for Cardinal Winners The ten winners in the Car- dinal coatest will be announced in Monday’s Sporting Edition, together with the baseballessays Which captured the $5 prizes.

| Mr. Stone.

— ,SENATOR STONE AS A LEANER. No one can blame'Senator Stone for doing his best to identify himself and his fortunes with M1. Bryan and his fortunes. Mr. Bryan is a.man of high character and of lofty ideals. He possesses the confidence of the people to an extraordinary degree. He has never been implicated in scandal. He has principles and the capacity to impress them upon others. Friends and foes alike agree in saying that his reputation is good. He can carry Missouri. Without passing too harsh e« judgment upon Senator Stone, truth compels the statement that in all of these respects he falls far short of the Bryan standard, and if one were to be critical of Mr. Bryan, it would have to be admitted that his jong and cordial intimacy with Senator Stone belies many of his most agreeable professions. Mr. Stone is not necessary to Mr. Bryan, but everybody in these parts knows that Mr. Bryan is necessary to Mr. Stone. If the Senator can make it appear that he and Mr. Bryan are men of the same character, of the same impulses and of the same aims the great advantage of the association must lie on the side of the Senator. While no one will question Mr. Stone’s clever- ness in attempting to figure conspicuously in geod political society at election time, there can- net fail to be a disposition in many places to protest against the attempt by himself and his friends to seize Mr. Bryan in their deadly em- brace and use his pleasing figure as a shield from the onslaughts of an opposition which is not arrayed against Mr. Bryan but i: most positively moving upon Mr. Stone. The Post-Dispatch is now and always has been free to testify to the excellent qualities of Mr. Bryan, but if these virtues were many times greater than they are they would hardly suffice in an analytical view to obscure the shortcom- ings of William J. Stone. It is no argument for M:. Stone that Mr. Bryar has co-operated with -him in practical politics, nor is it any argument for Mr. Stone that some elements opposed to him are also opposed to Mr. Bryan. It would be well for the name and fame of Senator Stone if che objections ‘to him were no more serious than those which have been urged against Mr. Bryan. Mr. Bryan has been antagon- ized of late only on grounds of availability and political expedéency. The indictment against Sen- ator Stone goes to the very foundations of his character as a man an¢ . public servant. Who shall wonder, then, that Mr. Stone leans heavily upon Mr. Bryan and entertains the hope that by that process ne may be helped over the many rcugh places now plainly in sight? | If Missouri could make Mr. Bryan President he would have the office. He can carry Missouri any day in the week. But Missouri alone cannot give him the Presidency. Now that Mr. Stone is better known than he was some years ago and that standards radically different from his own have come to be lboked upon with favor, it is not believed that he can carry Missouri or even that part of Missouri which resides in the Democratic party. His one hope is to make use ot Mr. Bryan’s good name and Mr. Bryan's great popularity. A broken reed is leaning upon what, locally, is a tower of strength. Let the Senator beware of the comparison. Mr. Bryan is not taking sides in the Missouri senatorial contest. He cannot afford to do so. His strength in this State does not depend upon Mr. Stone ought not. to be able. to make use of any strength that properly belongs to Mr. Bryan. If intelligence and good morals were to govern wholly, Mr. Stone as well as Mr. Bryan would fear the fatal juxtaposition. The farther apart these gentlemen keep the better will it be for both of them. :

ih & #&..... a a oe. A GENTLEMAN ON A STREET CAR. The problem of what is a gentleman has many interesting phases, but none more so than the street car phase. How shall the true gentleman couduct himself on a street car and particularly when there are ladies present? This phase has been illuminated by the gentle- man from Alabama in the House of Representa- tives, Mr. Heflin. It is worthy of note in pass- ing that the true Southern gentleman always shines on a street car. The Hon. Mr. Heflin came to Washington with certain preconceived notions amounting almost to prejudice. For one thing, it is quoted of him that he “don't like a colored Republican voter nohow.” Certain it is that he finds the aforesaid voter persona non grata on street cars, and the species he discovered in Washington led him to father a Jim Crow bill for the District of Columbia; an act which the present administra- tion for some reason has failed as yet to pass. But in any event Mr. Heflin has incurred suffi- cient disfavor in those parts to justify the au- thorities in - permitting him to arm himself as becomes a Southern gentleman of the old school. Accordingly, he is an arsenal whom it were well not to crogs. These facts are pertinent as ex- plaining while they emphasize his attitude of mind. — Last Friday, unlncky day! two colored suppor- ters of the present administration inadvisably obtruded their persons upon a car on which Mr. Heflin happened to be, and, worse to relate, they sat down and began to guzzle gin and swear in ® most offensive manner. There were ladies present. The rest is history. Suffice it to say that Mr. Heflin gave a «very Tbe obtained. The Bible says, “Earn your bread by ai' times and ali nations to say whether he may | not occasionally be right. It may be that a few Heflins distributed through the street cars of the land would have a salutary effect upon the manners of some white men, to say nothing of black. Ty, = * — = The celebrated Prof. Zueblin, lately of the Uni- versity of Chicago, has made the important dis- covery that saving of money can be overdone. There are excellent reasons for the belief, how- ever, that the Chicago institution of learning, in dispensing with the professor’s services, has not carried the idea to a ruinous extreme.

Aa. & rv LETTERS FROM THE PEOPLE. Democratic Colored Gentlemen. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. In your superior editorial, giving definition of ‘‘col- ored gentlemen,” you state that he has always voted the Republican ticket. With due respect, I wish to correct this statement, for I have known ‘of several “colored gentlemen” to have voted the Democratic ticket straight. YOUNG DALLASITE.

Police Joiners. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. Certain members of the Police Department are en- gineering an Athletic League and wanting members to pay for same. These certain members got men to join the Jefferson Club, Ancient Order of Hibernians and campaign funds. If you will note these same men have easy desk work, not walking a beat. A POLICEMAN. A Walker’s Challenge. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. In the Post-Dispatch of March 25 I read an ac- count of a little walking stunt performed by one John T. McMahon, and in which you quote him as Saying that there was not a man in the State, of his weight, 221 pounds, who could walk two and ope- half miles in 59 minutes. Now, I weigh 267 pounds and am over 50 years of age, and if I had the coin to put up I would wager any amount that I could perform the same feat in 50 minutes. G. §S. Office Holders Grab Honors, To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. In the selection of the four delegates to represent Missouri in the Democratic Convention at Denver, would it not be well to give the non-officeholding element in the party representation? In the list of names mentioned for these places, I have noticed none but congressmen and ex-governors. It would seem to me that these gentlemen have had the sub- stantial honors of the party, and that it might be good politics to bestow the empty honors on repre- sentatives of the private voters, who are the ones, after all, that carry the elections at the polls. PRIVATE VOTER. Is This a New Rule? To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. Does the United Railways Co. allow passengers to ride on the front end of their cars? I boarded the front end of a northbound Broadway car a few mornings ago, about 7:45, at €%0 South Broadway, in charge of Motorman Badge No. 4100, and was at once very roughly ordered to get off. Is this a new rule the company has of forcing the passengers to join the straphangers’ union, or ean it be that the company is training their men so they will be better fitted to drive the people when they put in use the pay-as-vyou-enter cars? Have others had the same experience? ABUSED PASSENGER. The Price of Meat. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. You ask, “Why not move on the Beef Trust?’. I will say, for my part, I would much rather move on the retail butcher, as I have worked for both the re- tail butcher and the Beef Trust and find at times a shortage of cattle on the market which must bring the price of cattle up. When the packer has to raise on price of dressed beef the retail butcher not only raises to the 2 more cents a pound, but adds a couple} or three cents more, saying waste in bone compels them to raise more than the packer. Now, I can’t understand why there can be any more waste of bone in the cattle of today than last week. A NORTH VENICE (ILL.) READER. Sandwiched Between Hats. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. The writer, while riding out Olive from Sixth street to Wellston, might have let his thoughts dwell on any number of subjects from “How to save on $100 per’’ to “Fair finance,” but sandwiched in be- tween three huge sailors, one in front, one alongside and the ether behind, all flittings, fancies and ob- servations soon gave place to an all-absorbing reverie on the merits and demerits of this wonderful crea- tion. It does seem inconsistent and unappreciative that just when Captain Pickel and his champions have succeeded in abating the “car-seat hog’’ nuis- ance the women should reduce the carrying capacity of our street cars by one-half. CRITIC. Carriers’ Sunday Work. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. I agree with I Am a Victim in regard to the Sun- day work of letter carriers. While the good people of this country are urging reforms and the abolition of Sunday work, the carriers’ Sunday work is dou- bled, compelling them to work every Sunday in the year. Anyone familiar with the mall service knows that to make the-carriers work every Sunday is an imposition and is entirely uncalled for. Instead of increasing the carriers’ Sunday work it could be greatly reduced on account of the consolidation of the substations. If the officials would be compelled to work every Sunday for awhile they may learn to know what that means and perhaps they would give the employes a little more consideration. EX-CARRIER. Selling Cast-Off Clothing. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. In answer to the letters by T. B. and “Poor Working Man,” would like to say, Yes, almost every Christian organization in the city sells cast-off cloth- ing.

It has scarcety struck us. that the chest expansion of a candidate for Con- gress is an important consideration, but that it is would appear from what the Nation says of Representative Little- field, soon to retire. Regretting his determination to give tp his seat, it says that ‘‘to a logical mind and full resources upon which he can readily draw, he adds the advantage of a powerful voice. Without this, no one can hope to engage successfully in a rough-and-tumble discussion on the floor of a vast and noisy chamber.”’ There is no comfort in this. The pos- sibility of finding someone who com- bines with the other. requisites a chest expansion of from 5 to 8 inches is ex- tremely precarious. Those walks of life which develope the chest are not usually the ones to which we look for Congres- sional timber.

ready larger than is consistent with the national welfare. The prohibition move- ment has not reached the point where we can elect preachers. Physical cul- turists have a bad habit of going around in their undershirts incompatible with the dignity of the Congressional body All the actors live in New York. Huck- sters are hucksters. Thinking men sel- dom speak, and are usually about the same size with their lungs inflated as duflated. Business men as a rule have soft desk voices suited to unannoying dictation. Farmers have telephones now, and have largely hollered them- selves out. Hornblowers might do in some instances, but they are wedded to their art. The odds and ends of society with big voices are making more in the wheat pit than the people could afford to pay them, Steamboat mates are im- possible on the negre question, and base- ball rooters do not like the Washington team. We despair. INSURANCE, The report that some of the property shaken down in Mexico last week was covered by earthquake insurance sug- gests that our sister republic may be ahead of us in a financial anticipation of some of the more reliable exigencies of life. Are we insured as fully as becomes the thrift of a prudent nation? To be sure, we are insured against death, ac- cident, fire, cyclones, sickness, burglars, injury to employes, drunken men in con- tact with plate glass, and a job lot of casuaities. But against perils even more imminent than some of these we hold no policies whatever. For instance, the loss of the peach crop is a fortuity which leaves us with- out indemnity about three times in five. If we had peach insurance we might eat peaches raised elsewhere; Instead of invariably resorting to prunes. The ap- ple crop is almost equally adventurous. Yet the uninsured blossom wil! blow In

a few days in alj the temperate zone, and the frost will probably get it, leav- ing our stomachs to the scant mercy of the dessicated, or dried, apple, which many a good man has died full of. It is possible that the Lloyds offer us in- surance against such contingencies as Hessian flies in the wheat, boll weevils in the cotton, green bugs in the greens, chinch bugs in the oats, grasshoppers in the corn, hens in the garden, cholera in the hogs, and that predaceous army to which allusion is made in the famous rhyme, Big crops have big bugs To prey upon and bite ‘em, And little crops have little bugs, And so on ad infinitum, but if they do, the agents never an- noy us, Really, there is no reason why any disaster should catch us unprepared. When we travel we can pay the ticket agent an extra quarter and leave those dependent upon us in affluence if the railroad is running without telegraph operators to reduce operating expenses; but we cannot give the conductor on the street car an extra cent and collect $2 if we leave an umbrella on the car. Neither can the uneasy wife of these days of hazardous domesticity save something out of her allowance and in- sure herself against that terrible day when her hushand shall meet his affin- ity and leave his hearth and home to shift for themselves, any more than the saloonkeeper can secure himself against ruin in the event his township votes dry. Are we fully Insured, really? WHERE HE STANDS. “Do you happen to know where he stands on the prohibition isaue?”’ “Yes. Before the bar.” Gus. Thos. thinks he may be chosen to nominate Bryan.

He looked west over the tops of many buildings to the far- thest smoke line—until a steel skeleton rose to cut off his view. He was much interested in the steel skeleton, in the riveters pitching and catching red-hot _ bolts and heading them with pneumatic hammers. He was much interested in the rising skin of brick, which eventu- ally hid the steel. But he was more interested in the girl who came when the building opposite was finished and who smiled at him. It was such a reserved smile and there Was a possibility that it Was not in- tended for him.

He felt stirrings toward matri- mony, but all the giris who seemed to have the address necessary to overcome ris bashfulness were personally repel- lant to him.

Arthur held aloft his rose and nodded a question: “Do you want it?” She made a cup of her hands “Yes, thank you.” He pre- tended to throw and she to catch. Real- _ ly, you know, he could not throw a rose 80 feet and through two panes of glass, now could he? But she played at catch- ing the rose and—did she smell it or Kiss it?—pinning it on her bosom.

In the evening he saw her closing up, hastened his work and fled down to the Street with the wilted rose in the pocket of his coat. From the safe vantage of the crowd eddying around the corner of her build- ing at 5:30 he saw a maiden emerge from the gust of her building's revolving door. The maiden had ner build’ and carriage of shoulders, a sort of stiff- back, braced carriage. He followed her to Sixth and saw her take a Tower Grove car. Her face showing over the crowd on ,the platform was not the face of the sn#ling. typist. Garrett hurried back to the revolving doorway in time to see the girl of his fancy emitted. She saw him and her eyes rested on him for an instant. He could not interpret the meaning of her glance. Of a truth it had no meaning save receptivity. Had he been older and wiser and cooler he would have put his fortune to the touch, put he dropped his eyes like @ s-afden and hurried on. Once past her he turned. She was walk- ing west on Olive. Garrett shadowed her to Sixth, she stopped for a car. A Suburban was approaching. He maneuvered on her right flank and gainea the front plat- form of the car. From the steps he saw her mount the rear platform. His intuition that she would take this car had not been at fault. He hurried inside and secured one of the few empty seats. The home guing crowd was beginning to fill the cars ere they entered the down-town loop. Presently he saw that his hoped for charmer had arrived. The girl of his fancy passed him searching vainly for a seat. Hot al! over and shaking he rose valiantly from his seat and held it against amazons who would thrust him from it. The gir! turned looking over the seated ranks of men helplessly and her eyes rested on him. He could not becken to her, but she read his proffer in his red em- barrassment, edged back through the packed aisle and slipped into the seat under the protection of his bulk. “Oh, thank you,” she said and smiled. Seen at a distance of 80 feet he had not realized how beautiful was her smile. “Isn't it an awful jam?” she queried. Did embarrassment ever paralyze your thought center and speech apparatus? Did shyness ever drive out of your brain the last atom of conventional speech and paint you scarict with shame for your stupidity. Garrett clung to a strap swaying drunkenly against in- dignant amagons, hia Dare eyes see- ing nothing of the girl, hid#ears hearing over and over again the music of her voice: “Oh, thank you.

A fuse blew with loud report and brilliant flame. The amazons in the aisle screamed, The girl of Garrett's fancy Jumped from her seat and caught his arm. He thrust: her back into the seat saying calmly, “It is nothing: only the fuse."" In the instant of need his shyness vanished; he had the temerity te put his hands upon her and compel her; he spoke with calm authority. The girl looked at him with bright eyes. He was suddenly revealed to her as some- thing more than a pleasantry, an ad- venture in fun. As suddenly as he had been transformed she was become shy.

As the crowd thinned “Come. We'd better get out. will be out of commission.” He led her through the jam at the steps and from the sidewalk they watched the car crew fighting the fire. She yielded herself to his guidance con- tentedly. “We'd better walk back to Locust street,’’ he said. “With this trouble and the trouble in Pine street the inspector will be turning back cars at Sixth and Locust. They won't try to use the loop.”’ As they walked back he explained as well as a man can explain to a woman the trouble with the controller box. She listened with that faith and lack of un- derstanding women give explanations of this sort under such circumstances. They caught one of the first cars turned back and got seats together. **How lucky,’’ she gurgled. If it hadn't been for you’’—and her eyes told of great obligation. ‘‘Just to think,” she continued, “I might have been hours getting home. I would never have thought of coming here.’’ Iiis authority had vanished; his shy- ness supervened. He could not talk now that all occasion for action was past. “And just think,” she said softly, ‘I don’t even know your name.” He told her, but choked so in utter- ance that she had to ask him to repeat several times. To make life interesting, she asked what he did all day at the window on the steenteenth story with his big book, and so led him into the one subject on which any man will talk: his work. In the midst of his garrulity a man leaned over him, saying: “Hello, Mag- Garrett said: This car Mr. Thompson!” she said, and introduced the florid, easy stranger to her escort. She told the story of their adventure volubly, while Garrett sat silently conning the revealed fact that her name was Maggie. Instinctively he disliked Thompson for his ease, his fa- miliarity, his attitude of possessing iMaggie. He hated himself for an ass that he allowed Thompson to take her from the car at Grand avenue, but he remembered ecstatically the smile and hand pressure she gave him in farewell.

BUTTERMILK CURES OLD AGE. Or You May Take Any Form of Soured Milk and Stave Off the Dread Specter.

meals—is recommended by Elie Metchnikoff in “The Prolongation of Life’ (Putnam’s) as the best means of warding off senility. Boiled soured milk has worked wonders which he has seen in kidney and intestinal troubles. ‘“‘Our precocious and unhappy old “age,” he says, is due to the poisoning of the tissues through intestinal putrefaction. Soured milk arrests this process of putrefaction in the large intestine. He says: ‘From time immemorial human beings have absorbed quantities of lactic microbes by consuming in the uncooked condition substances such as soured milk, kephir, sauer kraut, or salted cucumbers which have undergone lactic fermentation. By these means they have unknowingly lessened the evil conse- quences of intestinal putrefaction. Inthe .Bible soured milk is frequently spoken of. When Abraham entertained the three angels he set before them soured milk and sweet milk and the calf which he had dressed (Genesis 18, 8.) In his fifth book Moses enumerates amongst ‘the food which Jehovah had given his people to eat ‘Soured milk of Kine and goats’ milk, with fat of lambs and rams of the breed of Bashan, and goats with the fat of kidneys.’ (Deut. 32, 14.) Note. In the English authorized version as in the translation of Osterwald the word ‘butter’ is used in place of ‘soured milk.” Prof. Metch- nikoff follows the translation given by Evstein in his work on the Medicine of the Old Testament.) A food known as ‘‘Leben raib,”’ S mente milk, which can be taken at any time of the day*yvith or between which is a soured milk, prepared from the milk of buffaloes, kine or goats, has been used in Egypt from the re- motest antiquity. A similar preparation known as “yahourth” is familiar to the populations of the Ralkan Peninsula. The natives of Algiers make a kind of “‘leben’’ not identical with the Egyptian form. Soured milk is consumed in great quantities in Russia in two forms— “prostokwacha,” which is raw milk spontaneously coagulated and soured, and ‘vwarenetz,’’ which is boiled milk soured with a yeast. The chief food of many natives of tropical Africa consists off soured milk. The staple diet of the Mpseni is ‘‘a curdled milk, almost solidified.” “Meat is eaten only on cerernonial occasions.”’ According to Foa, a tribe of the Nyassa-Tanganyika plateau, like the Zulus, take milk only in the form of a raw cheese mixed with salt and pepper. Dr. Lima of Mossamedes, in West Africa, has told me that the natives of regions south of Angola live almost entirely on milk. They employ the cream as an Ointment for the skin, whilst the milk, soured and curdied, Is their staple food. M. Nogueira reported the same circumstances nearly fifty years ago after his journey in the province of Angola. Just as cheeses vary in different countries, so curdled milk varies slight- ly according to the nature of the flora of microbes. Taking all the soured inilks that are produced by natural processes, it may be said that the great- er number cf them contain not only microbes that produce lacti: acid, but, also yeasts that cause alcoholic fermentations. Kephir, which is prepared from the milk of kine, and koumiss, which is a product of mares’ milk, are notably alcoholic. Koumiss is the well-known national beverage of the Kirghi- ses, Tartars and Kulmucks, nomads of Asiatic Russia, who are famous horse breeders, whilst kephir is the native drink of the mountaineers of the Caucasus, the Ossetes, and some other tribes.’ M. Grigoroff, a Bulgarian student at Geneva, has been surprised by the number of centenarians to be found in Bulgaria, a region in which yahourth, a soured milk, is the staple food. Some of the centenarians, described by M. ‘hemin in his memoir, lived chiefly on a milk diet. Marie Priou, for example, who died in the Haute-Garonne in 1838 at the age of 158 years, had lived for the last 10 years of her life entirely on cheese and goats’ milk. Ambroise Jantet, a laborer of Verdun, who died in 1751 at the age of 111 years, “ate nothing but unleavened bread and drank nothing but skimmed muilk.’’ Nicole Mare, who died aged 110 years, at the chateau of Colemberg (Pas-de-Calais), a hunchback and cripple, “lived only on bread and milk food. It was only towards the end of her life and after much persuasion that she took a little wine.” I owe to the kindness of M. Simine, an engineer in the Caucasus, the follow- ing communication, taken from the newspaper, Tiffliiaky Listok, Oct. 8, 1904: In the village of Sba, ! the district of Gori, there is an old Ossete woman, Thense Abalva, whose age is supposed to be about 180 years. This woman fs still quite capable and looks after her household duties and sews. Although she is bent, she walks firmly enough. many

LOVERS’ PAPER. g Switzerland there is a newspaper

especially for engaged couples. Agents all over the country collect particulars concerning young people who have become engaged to be married, and their names, addresses, and particulars of their social position appear in this weekly journal. Every girl whose name is thus mentioned receives the paper for one year free, the subscribers to it being chiefly tradespeople who send advertise- ments of their goods to those whose names are so published. Rheumatism being such a _ universal complaint, it is hardly to be wondered at that there exists a paper entirely for the benefit of rheumatic sufferers. This is published in Germany, and in it rheu- matic patients discuss their symptoms and tell of anything that has proved a relief to their pains, while medical men contribute articles to it on the different phases, symptoms, and species of rheu- matism, and the progress which the cure of rheumatism igs steadily making. Needless to say, most rheumatic patients make a point of seeing this strange print. There was staying in London recently the editor of the only illustrated paper in the whole of the Caucasus, who, therefore, is in the happy position of having no competitor. He is said to have made arrangements for the pub- lishing of a world’s miniature postcard newspaper, the print of which will be so small that the readers will be sup- plied with a magnifying glass in order to master its contents. Greenland possesses one monthly journal, called the Kalorikmit. It con- sists of a single sheet of three columns, and is published at Godthaab, on the west coast of Greenland. A_ three months’ subscription to the paper takes the peculiar form of two ducks. A sable skin will pay for the paper for a whole year.

The loss at New York City still reflects in part the largely reduced volume of stock market oper- ations this year; outside of New York there is a decrease of 18.1 per cent compared with last year, mainly due to the much smaller clearings at Boston, Philadelphia, Baltimore and Pittsbur most Southern cities and at San Francisco. The losses at the West are still small, notably at Chicago, while some Western cities report larger ex- changes than last year and nearly all of them larger exchanges than in the corre- sponding week in March two years ago, when trade was active.

SE IR FINANCE--YUKON-- Thanks to that Mighty horse-sense public, whom the great Lincoln said no man could fool the second time, that public which in 38 years has never failed to back me up in my public exploitations, I landed YUKON on Saturday a splendid success—an all-record-breaking success. Never before. in the history of Stocks, even in a full trading day of five hours, In two hours’ trading 700,000 shares were sold. have even 250,000 actual. shares of any stock been sold by one interest. In spite of the great, good-natured mob, which trampled upon rules and regulations and swept aside the extra police detail to Wall and State Streets, my programme went through on schedule time. A great section of the public now own the 700,000 shares. Another and larger section have been left—belated. They will come into the market today and following days and their buying will advance the price to 10, perhaps to 15, its actual worth now—and later to whatever price is justified by the: splendid dividends it will pay. Never has any stock affair so uniformly benefited everyone concerned in it, sellers, buy* ers, brokers and speculators. All classes have made money, particularly the brokers, who, because of the way in which it was handled, have made for themselves in one day’s trading, besides their commissions, $250,000 to ~ $350,000 which otherwise would have come to me. While Wall and State Streets had a wild time of it, as they always must have when the great publie, bent on real business, visits them, it was such a good-natured, jolly time that their hats should be in the air along with their huzzahs, but, instead, a section of both localities are sorely disappointed at my success, as they always have been and probably always will be. These say, now that I am leaving YUKON to ‘‘The Street;’’ _that they will see that it does not go above 8 for some time to come. I should leave the stoek to ‘‘The Street’’ but the attitude of these growlers has decided me to stay with it for a week longer, to show them that to keep a - stock i in great demand at say 10 for the present, even though it has all been turned over to the public at an average of 7, and even though they, the public, are to secure all the benefits of the rise, it is as easy as it is to well 700,000 shares in two hours when the combined efforts of ‘‘The Street’? cannot market half that amount of stock in two weeks. The growlers ‘will see, too, how prettily a stock will perform for the public when the real public comes to town to buy it. I have carried out my programme to the letter, and the public have all the YUKON which will be sold to them, unless, when it is found impossible to keep the price below 15, it should become necessary to let some of the Exploration Company's 2,800,000 shares, which President Daniel Guggenheim has assured me will not be sold but at much higher figures than now prevail. Therefore, I say again to the public everywhere: “Buy YUKON at any price undér 15, as an investment, and I say to all who have already bought, don’t part with any of your stock under 10. I ask both classes to watch the movements of YUKON in all the different markets where it will be most actively traded in from now on, and to judge by its price whether some of us know as much about market operations as we do about talking to the people through the press megaphone.”’ Boston, Mass., March 30, 1908.

CONSULTING ENGINEER J. PARKE CHANNING

This Company is owner of mining claims acquired from the General Development Company as Vendo : - The properties consist of a group of claims containing approximately 200 acres of mineral lands on which the General Development Company has expended large sums of money in developing and proving the ; value of the ground. | Reference is made for a de scription of the property, character of the ore deposits and the probable cost of production, to following Report of J. Parke Channing, Engineer, the eminent authority on copper properties: — Adolph Lewisohn, Esq., President Miami Copper Company, 42 Broadway, New York City, “New York, March 12th, 1908, ak % a ? oe eta £08 a EFT 2 sae) Ss ~ . hes ae % Dear Sir: 3 The property of the Miami Copper Company consists of about 300 acres west of the City of Globe, Arizona, at which city are the mines and works of the well-Rnown Old Dominion Company. ; Development which is still being earried on shows to date 2,000,000 tons of concentrating ore ¢ontaining 3 per cent of cop- | per. - Ore was struck at a depth of 220 feet, and the bottom of the shaft, at a depth of 500 feet, is still in ore, and the area shown gt the ore body is 300 feet by 350 feet, without having as yet reached the limits, so that the prospects are that an enormous a concentrating’ ore will be dev eloped as indieated by surface conditions. ¢ : - The Gila Valley Globe & Northern Railway ends at Globe, six miles distant, and surve ys past the Miami have been made > and right of way secured: this extension will pass within a quarter of a mile of the mine. There is abundant water available concentration purposes. It is proposed to erect the first unit of a reduction works, which unit will have a daily capacity of 1000 tons. This will sive, an annual -production of 14,000,000 pounds of copper, based on 350 days’ running time and a yield from the 3 per cent ore of 2 per cent, or 40 pounds of copper to the ton. Concentrating tests have shown that the ore can be readily concentrated 10 into 1 and the resulting concentrate smelted with: the above yield in fine copper. It_is estimated’ that the cost of electrolytie copper sold in New York will be 9¢ per pound. On this basis the profits at 12e copper will be $420,000 per annum and at 15e copper $840,000 per annum. As developments advance a secomd: unit of 1000 tons daily capacity will be built which will double the above figures of profit. It is estimated that it will require $790, 000 te erect the necessary first unit of the reduction works and that $250,000 addi- : tional will be required for mine plant, shops, buildings, ete. The ore deposit of the Miami Copper Company is in nature similar to those of the Arizona Copper Company, the Nevadad Consolidated Copper Company, the Utah Copper Company, and the Boston Consolidated Mining Company ; that is, large masses of” ore in which the copper as a sulphide mineral is disseminated through the rock and -which readily yields a high grade concen- ; trate by water treatment, which can be easily smelted. The mining is simple and cheap and when found these deposits are the most valuable as copper producers. The Miami ore running 3 per cent in copper as it does, is higher in grade than-any of the above mentioned properties and it will without doubt” prove a large producer and dividend payer. : (7 Yours truly, ‘ As (Signed) J. PARKE CHANNING, v3 Consulting Engineer.”* As'the entire outstanding ¢ aint of the Company (including the proceeds of the 200,000 treasury shares that are now being issued) amounts to only $2,500,000, it will be apparent that the prospects are bright for large returns.

~ FOR COMPLEXION SAS PASTOR It Will Take Away More Wrinkles Than 10,000 Lo- tions, He Declares.

DEPLORES “SCRAPPING”

The Rev. J. Y. Reid of Belle- ville Tells Meh They Should Not Be Substitutes. ae ee ee

BELLEVILLE PASTOR’S OPINIONS ABOUT LOVE Love is better than lotions for . wrinkles. Many couples, instead of being one, are half a dozen. Some men never know what sor- row is until they get married. , A man who takes a womat on trial ought to be sent to jail. Marriage is no put-up jok of man. I wish the Devil had died when he was a baby. Don’t marry a woman ‘wio has no temper. : After you get her, pray God to help her control her temper. Don’t be a substitute hhsband. Some couples scrap like every- ‘thing the first week.

Love is good for the complexion, ac- cording to the Rev. J. Y. Reid, pastor of the Fiest M. E. Church, Belleville. He talked to husbands about husbands Sun- day night and the ‘wives of husbands, present and prospective, sat by and list- ened very Qitentively and approvingly. He told the husbands that the best wary to keep ihe wrinkles away from their wives’ faces was to keep on lov- ing them after marriage the same as before. Will Keep Awny Wrinkles. “Love will keep more wrinkles away than 16,000 lotions,”’ he said. “If you men would love your wives the way you should they would have less need to spread on face preparations when they go out calling.” It had been his observation, he said, that in many homes, instead of the twain becoming one, they became half a dozen. Tt was all right, he said, to take phys- ical beauty into account in picking out a wife, but he reminded the husbands that beauty fades unless it is carefully looked after. Among other things, he said: “A great many men never know what sorrow is until after they are married. “With some, marriage is a matter of business. With others it is experimen- tal. A man takes a woman on trial to see if he likes her. He ought to be sent to jail for that. God didn’t make meh and women to be playthings, to be broken and cast aside. A man should select a wife with care... He should se- lect such a woman as God would have him select, a helpmeet and congenial “eompanion. Wishes Devil Had Died. “God instituted marriage. It was no put-up job of man. He made the right kind of a woman for Adam and made Adam the right kind of a man for Eve, and if it hadn't been for the old Devil they would have been in the Garden of Bden yet. I wish the Devil would have died when he was a baby. “The mea and women who fall in love at first sight and get married the same day usually separate the next day. “Before you marry, study well. Be gure that you love the woman. She should be of good character and com- patible age. A man of 70 should never marry a girl of 16. I read the other day of such a marriage. He was very rich. Poor man and poor girl. Thit Was a marriage for business considera- tions. She wanted his money. She hoped the old man would die soon, so that she could get his money. ' “Consider the quality of the woman, the education of the woman, and don’t t the temper of the woman. Yor eake don't marry & woman who has no temper, bui after you get her God to help her control it. Some people get married and scrap I!ke every- thing the first week. “Don’t Be a Substitute.” “When you are married, be a true hus- band and not a substitute. The world is filled with substitute husbands. I wouldn't know half of the husbands of the women of this church if I met them _ @m the street. They know me. of course, | | nd when I pass them without speaking to them, I suppose they say, ‘Huh, tnat her is stuck up.’ How do they ex- _ pect me to know them when I never _ gaw them before? ' “There will be happiness in the home a the husband is as gentle, unselfish shine of love for all the years after the marriage as there was before.” The Rev Mr. Reid annouirced that he ss would talk to women next Sunday night.

REV. J. Y REID _— re ee ee oe ee SUN, TAKEN AFTER QUARREL, AILLS BRIDE , —"

Mrs. Anna Sieve, a bride of a year, who swallowed carbolic acid at her home, 1433 Cleary street, Sunday after- noon, following a quarrel with her mother, Mrs. Anna O'Reilly, died Mon- day morning at the City Hospital. George Sieve, the husband, said Mon- day he did not know that his wife was dead. Sieve said that his wife and her mother had quarreled repeatedly and he: had tried to remain neutral between them. “When Anna swallowed the acid her mother said: ‘Well, I think you will be better off dead anyway.’ She had nevy- er threatened suicide before. I did not know the acid was in the’ house, but found the women had used it for killing cockroaches.”’ Mrs. O'Reilly, the mother of Mrs. Sieve, left her home Sunday afternoon to go to a new place of employment in the West End. The husband said he would. have to notify her before he. would go to the City Hospital to take charge of the body.
