ANARCHY'S DOOM AT LAW'S HANDS wr Short Message to Congress Calls Creed National Menace.

WASHINGTON, April 9.—In one of the shortest messages which he has yet transmitted to Congress, President Roosevelt today called the attention of that body to the necessity for further legislation on the subject of anarchy. With the message he transmitted a re- port reviewing the legal phases of the question by Attorney-General Bona- parte. Advises Governor of New Jersey. Besides his direction to the Postmas- ter-General to exclude from the mails guch publications as ‘‘La Questione So- ciale,” President Roosevelt, in ‘a letter to Attorney-General Bonaparte, says he Kas. had the particular case called to the attention of the Governor of New Jersey by Secretary Root that the Gov- ernor may proceed under the State laws. : * Tre opinion of the Attorney-General, which the President transmits to Con- “* gress, embraces a discussion of the ‘whole subject from many legal angles. His first conclusion is that the article in question, which advocates the use of arms and dynamite in annihilating police and soldiers that anrchy may pre- vail, constitutes a ‘‘seditious libel,’’ and is undoutedly “a crime at common law.’’ Nation Needs New Law. He declares there is no Federal stat- ute which makes such publications an offense against the United States, and that the Federal courts consequently have no jurisdiction in the matter. That there is full power in the pos- session of Congress to make such pub- lHications criminal, the Attorney-General asserts, and guotes Chief Justice Fuller of the Supreme Court and Mr. Justice Field as authority. The greater portion of his opinion is devoted to the question of whether, in the absence of any legislation by Con- gress, the Postmaster-General has the right to exclude such publications. On tnis point his conclusion is: . “The Postmaster-General will be justi- fied in excluding from the mails any w- sue of any periodical, otherwise entitled to the privileges of second-class mail tratter, which shall contain any article ccntaining a ‘seditious libel,’ and coun- seling such crimes as murder, arson, riot _ and treason.”’ * ‘In arriving at the latter conclusion, the Attorney-General makes a clear dis- tinction with reference to the authority ef postal officials over sealed and un- -gealed.mail matter.. >. é * st ,

He adds: “In so far as it conveys Scaled documents its agents are not only not bound to know, but are ex- pressly forbidden to ascertain what the purpose of such messages may be; ‘therefore, neither the Government nor its, officers can be held either legally a fr morally responsible for the nature of tne letters to which they thus, in inten- _tlonal ignorance, afford transportation. - “But in the case of printed matter in- circulation and which, by virtue of the statutes above raentioned, and in consideration of the - feduced rate at which it is transported, ‘ WP gy: ret) oe ‘ 3 , 2s Ame —_. . = io .

Addressing a Democratic gathering at Moberly, Mo., Judge W. N. Evans de- clared that country editors unfriendly to his candidacy for the Democratic nomination for Governor were seeking to disparage his aspirations by referring to him as “Grandpa’’ Evans. Although proudly confessing that he is a grandparent, Judge Evans says he wishes it understood that he is not an old man, having just turned his fifty- fourth year. Judge Evans told a Post-Dispatch re- porter before he started on his present speechmaking tour that the ‘‘grandpa’”’ attacks of the rural press were becom- ing decidedly monotonous and annoying. Hasn’t One Foot in the Grave. “They are trying to make it appear,” he said, ‘“‘that I have one foot in the grave. “Some of them would have the voters believe I am as old as Methusaleh and as feeble as the ordinary 80-year-old citizen. . “They seem to have taken no account of the age of their own idols, Senator Stone, Sam B. Cook and others. “Mr. Cook, to look at him, may be a young man, but he is no younger than I am. We are the same age. If my beard were out of the way per- haps I would look younger. I have nearly 10 years to go before reaching Senator Stone’s age. Wl De Some Sprinting. “Before this campaign is over I ex- pect to convince some of my political enemies who are calling me ‘Old Man’ Evans and ‘Grandpa’ Evans, that I can run like a 4-year-old.’’ Judge Evans admitted at Moberly that the man who defeats W.. 8.

The public hearing on the appeal for the incorporation of Maplewood at Clay- ton was postponed Thursday: until April 17 on the application of the attorneys of the signers to the petition that they might have more time in’ which to ex- amine the tax records to prove that each of the signers is a bona fide tax payer, which some of the “antis’” de- nied. A remonstrance to the creation of Maplewod as a city of the third class, signed by 954 taxpayers, was presented, and their attorneys objected to a con- tinuance of the hearing, but were over- ruled.

Alford’s family sent $700 to pay hos- pital and undeftaker bills, and Good- rich was going to the undertaker when, he met two men, who proposed that they “match.” . He accepted and they began matching for $10 a throw. Goodrich says he lost every time, and was finally cleaned out.

Romance Rumored Young Woman Eles:ed to Town Office. MONTGOMERY, Mo., April 9.—Poli- tics, like love, laughs at obstacles in the case of Mrs. Gertrude Barney, the charming young widow elected to the office of City Collector here. The latest development is that the City Democratic Committee will not allow any Democrat to run, as a Demo- crat, in the special election to fill the vacancy created by the Council's fail- ure to commission the young woman. Phis will give Mrs. Barney a chance to name a candidate. who will name her as his clerk after the election, and thus give her the office in fact, also the salary. There is a rumor that a

wedding is likely to be the culmination ; of this politica) romance.

HAT PROVES INNOCENCE

Says Man Will Not Dare Face Certain Ostracism in . America.

Special Cable to the Post-Dispatch and New York World. , Copyright, 1908, by the Press Pub. Co. (New York World.) PARIS, April 9.—In an impassioned speech, which lasted four hours, Maitre Barboux, Mrs. Hart McKee’s counsel, pictured her to the divorce court Judge as a noble woman, a high example of outraged virtue and injured innocence. Maitre Barboux was pleading in rebut- tal of the accusations which the equally eloquent Maitre Labori, her husband's lawyer, made against her last Wednes- day and the Wednesday before. Barboux was exceedingly plain-spok- en. His direct treatment of the most delicate subjects amused the listeners, among whom were many fashionable women and men. Dentes Affair With Count. Counsel vehemently denied the charge that his charming client had been guilty of the slightest indiscretion with young Count Guylielmi at the Varenn2s cha- teau, which the McKees leased. ““Besides,"" Barboux added, “this in- cident at the chateau is supposed to have occurred in the briefest interval of time—while McKee was changing his clothes; for he had been fighting and awkwardly fallen in the water.’ “The whole story about. Mrs. McKee and the Count being discovered ‘by the husband as they emerged from a grove of trees on the grounds of the chateau is fabrication,’’ declared Barboux. Only a Frenchman could have clinched his argument on this point as did Bar- boux. “It is acknowledged that my client wore a fashionable and becoming hat,’’ he said. “I leave it to your common sense if this peculiar fashion of ladies’ hats, at the time this alleged incident occurred, was not absolutely unfavor- } able to impromptu love-making.”’ Women Approve Point. Some of the women in court smiled ap- provingly; others nodded as if to con- firm the lawyer; still others whispered to each other, perhaps asking whence Barboux had derived so much knowl- ome: The advocate warmly defended Miss Lawler, a friend of Mrs. McKee, on whom Mr. MoK se lad cast aspersions. Barboux Insisted that Miss Lawler was innocent of any wrongdoing and that it was wholly “alse that she tried to cloak Mrs. McKee’'s love affairs. Then Barboux brought his oratorical guns to bear on Baron Aliotte, secre- tary of the Italian Embassy here. “Aliotte played a most contemptible part in this sad domestic drama,’’ the lawyer declared. ‘‘He sought, by manip- ulating certain correspondence that passed between Mrs. McKee and him- self, tO furnish a weapon against her to her husband. The original letters in their correspondence, being perfectly harmless, were not preserved. “But Aliotte, by a wonderful feat of memory, pretended to restore the let- ters word for word. This might be very interesting in a novel, but it is not evidence in a court of law. I am convinced that Aliotte has been more in- fluenced by McKee’s money than by friendship for him.” Says McKee Was “Petty.” Barboux, concluding, said McKee has with his had even resorted to ‘doctor’ their house- wife’s’ fortune, petty devices to hold aceounts. “McKee did not hesftate to imitate his wife’s handwriting when his own financial ends were to be served.” said Rarboux. ‘““The criminal code would eall these little tricks of the husband by a very ugly name. “But he will be punished sufficiently. So much of bis past, carefully hidden up to the moment these proceedings be- gan, has been dragged into light that. brazen-faced though he be, he will never dare return to the United States, for all honest folk would shun him as a moral leper.” The case was adjourned Wednesday.

WOMAN WRITES - OF SUICIDE PLAN TO The PUBLIC Pens Note Saying She Is De- spondent, Then Leaps to Death. “TRAGEDY AT INFIRMARY

“1 Did It for Him,” Her Last Words—Received Letters From “Will.” In a letter addressed to the Post- Dispatch Mrs. Sadie Collett told of her intention to commit suicide. Just after ghe wrote the letter and concealed it beneath the pillow in her bed in a room in the fourth story of St. Mary’s In- firmary, Fifteenth and Papin streets, at 6 o'clock Wednesday evening, she open- ed the window and leaped to the ground. 'Bhe died at 3 o’clock Thursday morn- ing. In her. fall her left arm was torn off above the elbow by striking the barb of an iron it 8 She was injured in- ternally also. \ “I do this just to let the world know that I am despondent and broken heart- ed,”’ the Jetter said. “I was in suspense until noon today. I have no relatives. Fut there might be one who would like to know that he alone was the cause of it. My name is Sadie Collett.’ _ ~ Too Late to Save Her. Mrs. Collett entered the infirmary March 21 as a patient of Dr. O. Paquin, who had been treating her for nervous prostration, the result of morphine ad- diction. He had called on her a few minutes before she leaped from the window. When he left the room to visit another patient in the hospital she got out of bed and went to the window. To open it she had to climb over a steam radiator. As she was crawling through the window Dr. Paquin entered the room in time to see her disappear, but was unable to catch her. Two men who were on the opposite side of the street saw her fall and apshed to her side. "8 had .fallen inside the fence, close to the wali of the building, in earth soft- ened ‘by the rain, and her body made a depression in the soil a foot deep. She was picked up and carried into the hall of the infirmary. - When she was asked if she had tried to commit suicide she murmured: “I did it for him.’’ She became unconscious and remained so until her death. Letter From “Will.” The “him” referred to is supposed to be a man who had written to her at the hospital a little more. than a week ago, and who signed himself “Will.’’ Mrs. Collett’s husband is Bert Collett, who is supposed to be at Zachary, La. The letter from “Will” was dated St. -Louls, March 31, 1908. It was as follows: “Little Sweetness—I will only drop a line in answer to yours of the 30th. My time is limited. Besides, it was only last night that I wrote you a long letter, in- closing $8, which possibly reached you about the same time that your second s letter reached me. I am glad to know that you are doing so nicely, My only wish is for your health and happiness. Hurry up and, get well. Am anxious to get well. Am anxious to see you. It would be a pleagure to us both to be to- gether instead’ of writing. Yours as - qver, WILL.” | ». 8.1 “will inclose “another dollar » this tine, which, with last night, makes * Hope it reaches you all right and finds you well.” . Woman of Myatery. ... Dr. Paquin told the Post-Dispatch that ~he* knew little about his patient. She had been sent to him for treatment by Dr. L. J. Bartlett of the Manine Medical Co, of 3201 Locust street, who had treat- ed her two years ago for morphine ad- diction. ‘ Mrs. Collett had been in St. Louis 11 qmonths, and had been employed as a stenographer, She.said she had boarded at 6168 Bertha avenue, but residents of Bey number say they don’t know her. _ At the hospital she said that she was a * Canadian, but had married and lived for a time in Mississippi. “Dr. Bartlett said: “Mrs. Collett, whose home was in Co- . lumbus, Miss., worried a great deal t an inheritance of $20,000, out of «arth ‘ she claimed she had been de- _frauded, and which came to her from ' her grandmother, Mrs..

There is being organized in St. Louts a trades union which will include in its ranks servants who work in houses, waitresses in restaurants, scrubwomen in skyscrapers, kitchen maids and chambermaids in hotels, laundresses and charwomen who go out to work by the day, butlers, coachmen, chauffeurs, stablemen, furnace tenders, housemen; in fact all classes and grades in what are known as the ‘“‘servant class.”’ Mrs. Edith Adams, an avowed anar- chist, a friend of Emma Goldman, and a student of sociology, is the orgenizer. Mrs. Adams has been a servant her- self, and has worked in many of the best houses in the West End, where she went to study the servant problem. She recently caused consternation in homes where she had served by a pub- lished denunciation of the treatment of servants in homes where she had served. Officers Are Chosen. The initial meeting of the organization was held in Mrs. Adams’ rooms at Fourteenth street and Franklin avenue last Saturday night. It was well at- tended for the limited netice which had gone out. About thirty girls In service and some men, butlers and coachmen were -pres- ent, and a temporary organization af- fected. Temporary officers were elect- ed, but their names are not given out, for fear that if their employers knew them they would be discharged. Mrs. Adams was elected organizer. ‘This is the beginning of a movement that will spread like wildfire over the country as soon_as it gets a good head- way,’ said Mrs. Adams to the Post- Dispatch. “Will it not make what employers call the ‘servant problem’ harder than it is at present?’ she was asked. Will Improve Service. “On the contrary, it will improve the service, produce better and more self respecting servants, and make house service a trade instead of a conglom- eration of illy trained, clumsy and un- thinking girls and men doing their work in a halthearted way becauce they are overworked, underpaid, and kept in a continuel state’ of mental and physical exhaustion. . ‘You can’t get as good and intelligent work out of a person who is enzgag = in hard physical labor twelve to fift-«n hours a day as you can from one who works eight hours a day and has time for rest and recreation. Fifteen hours of physical labor a day is brutalizing. “Think what must be the opportunity for mental development in a girl who works fifteen hours or ten hours a day every day in the week except on her day ‘out,’ when she is lucky if she gets four hours off. “Four hours a week is not much for recreation. That will be changed when the union is fully organized, and we are strong enough to demand the rights that are ours by every instinct of hu- manity. Each One an Organiser. “The organization is now going.on by units. Those who have joined is each constituting herself into an organizer to tell her friends of the movement and ask her to join. The difficn'ty in getting the girls in is their timidity. The em- ployers have them bluffed. The giris know well enough that they are not treated well, except in the case of a few who know family secrets that are bet- ter kept quiet. A servant wio has peeped into the closet and made the ac- quaintance of the family skeleton is the worst tyrant in the world. “Fr cann*t say for certain, out I th’nk ire new union will be affiliated w'th the Industrial Workers of the World.

.. CHIN KUNG GIN GIVES HARLEM A NEW SENSATION

rr ,% ad Chinese Falls Out of Tree on Policeman, Sur- prises Experienced Judge, and Sits on Heater.

By Leased Wire From the New York Bureau of the Post-Dispatch. NEW YORK, April 9.—Of course any experienced playwright knows that the climax really comes in the third act, when Chin Kung Gin sits down on a hot heater in the Harlem court and arises therefrom at once and emits several loud, singed shrieks, but to begin at the beginning it should be stated that at 6 o'clock in the morning Policeman Lycur- gus Hemmer was walking north on Broadway, between 195th and 196th, which is in Upper Harlem. There are streets in this portion of our great city, and from a close-boughed cedar, standing on a vacant lot, Police- man Hemmer heard sounds emerging. The sounds were something like a dollar watch being wound up and something like the finish of a six-day hiccoughing contest and something like throwing an applecore in the monkey cage. Naturally Policeman Hemmer went over there and stood directly under the cedar tree and looked up. One of those felt slippers that turns up at the toe like a runner on a bob sled hit him in the mouth. Another Slipper Descending. Brushing the slipper out of his face with a careless gesture, Hemmer looked up into the tree again. The mate of the slipper was in the act of descending from an upper bough, accompanied by a lady’s sweater, red, with large pear! buttons and a rol) collar, a pair of long,

black tights, an uncolled queue, an ad- vance black straw hat and a chromo- yellow Chinese. The Chinese was wear- ing all of these things except the second slipper. They all lit on Hemmer’s chest in such a manner that he seated himself in a recumbent posture and regained his breath. It was the Chinaman who opened the conversation. He spoke ag follows: “Gin.”’ Gin and Then Some. “I koew that already,"’ said Hemmer. “And not only gin, but If I'm any jucge, beer and whiskey straights, and high wires and denatured alcohol and fusel ofl, and horse liniment and hearth var- nish. You have a breath like a bonded warehouse. What d’ye mean by trying to push a package like that up a tree?’ The explanation wearied Hemmer, and besides he did not’ understand any of it except that the Chinaman was named Chin Kung Gin, ahd was a cook and lived at 20 Mott street. So he rang the patrol wagon and thy went to the station. ‘In Harlem court Magistrate Kerno- chan told Gin that he (Gin) was the first drunken Chinaman he ever saw in his (Kegecban’s) life, but that he (Gin) was drunk enough to maxe up for all the Chinamen he (Kernochan) ever saw that were sober.

NEW YORK, April §.—It is reporte.i that among the passengers landed today from the Friedrich der Grosse was Ferdinand Pinney Earle, the artist, who was wedded to the “original affinity,” JuHa Kuttner, in Italy a short time ago. The wedding followed quickly upon the granting of a divorce to the original Mrs. Earle in Paris. It is announced that the Earles contemplated another marriage in this country, The first Mrs. Earle is living with her father in Paris with her young son. Her divorce was not contested. Earle and his new wife hurriedly left the pier and are supposed to have hid- den themselves. His visit to this coun- try was made in order that he could claim an estate of $60,000, left him by his grandmother, Mrs. Elizabeth P. Earle, who died March 13.

The behavior of the City Council relative to the proposition to admit to the streets of St. Louis the pipes of a natural gas company is questiona- bjJe enough to direct close public attention to that ‘-bedy. Some weeks ago when the Council was asked to consider an ordinance making the grant it made the discovery that measures of that kind should be drawn by the Board of Public Improvements, and on March 17 it formally requested the Board to report such an ordinance within thirty days. If attention had been given to the matter the ordinance might have been in hand in season for action during the late session of the Municipal Assembly. It happened, however, that the clerk of the Council did not transmit the resolution to the Board until April 7 and the Board, in the ab- sence of official information on the subject, has as yet done nothing. A little more _ forgetfulness, negligence and indifference of this description and the summer vacafion will have arrived, and then there will be no prospect of action until fall. While all this must. be highiy agreeable to the Gas Trust, it is exasperating enough to the public and to the men 0, apparently acting in good faith, stand ready ae Supply this city with a cheaper illuminant. , “The Council’s reference of the ordinance to the Board of Public Improvements was an extraordi- mary proceeding, even if the motive had been of the best.

Looking beyond the presidential nominations to the realities of the campaign; Democrats will, find that there are weighty reasons not as yet named in many places, why Gov. Johnson of Minnesota would make a more formidable can- didate than Mr. Bryan. With either Taft or Roosevelt in the Republi- can leadership, the main issue, so far as they can control it, will necessarily be the indorsement of the present administration and the continua- tion of its policies. As to most of these Mr. Bryan is as fully committed to their support as any Re- publican in the country. He has takeh issue with the President so rarely and he has cordially ap- proved his words and deeds on so many occasions that his nomination as against either Taft or Roosevelt would be like a Democratic indorse- ment of the Republican ticket and policies. It will hardly do for the Democratic candidate and party to go into the campaign committed to |. Taft or Roosevelt in this fashion and raising no issue except one involving the sincerity of the Republican party. The candidacy of either one of these men would be a sufficient answer to that. There are Republicans, of course, who-do not admire Roosevelt or Taft, but with one or the other of these gentlemen in the leaderchip or in office, such elements will not be very influential. Gov. Johnson’s appreciation of the President's good qualities has been expressed in more cir- cumspect fashion. He has had no prior clainis of his own to establish, and so he has escaped the pitfalls which always seem to wait for pride. He has recognized Mr. Roosevelt's good purposes without in all cases approving the methods. by which they were followed. He has seen much, ne doubt, that at the proper time he will’ not hesitate to criticise. Quite as important as any of these things, it is tu be said of Gov. Johnson that his sturdy Demce- racy has given him ideas as to necessary reforms in the national government which raise an issue with Republicanism at once and which, in the event of his nomination, would precipitate a political contest worthy of-a great people. y Both Bryan and Roosevelt have done much good in’ arousing public sentiment against notorious wrongs. No one having the best interests of the ccuntry at heart will be disposed to quarrel with either of them as to that. Mr. was the forerunner. Mr. Roosevelt certainly has bad the opportunity and the power. It is a strange fate that has brought these lead- ers of two fiercely antagonistic pariies into prac- tigal alliance. If Mr. Roosevelt were as generous in his praise of Mr. Bryan-as Mr. Bryan is in his commendation of him, tha personal conditions would be well prepared. for the Democratic in- dorsement of Mr. Roosevelt so startlingly advocat- ed not long ago by « sensational Southerner. Gov. Johnson’s candidacy offers the Democrats A way straight out of this curious complication. No | tery adin close: may be the meytal and po- tical Ns heity hetweer Mr. Roosevelt and Mr. Bryan, a gvedt gulf has been fixed between their respective parties. With Gov.

Le ~~ FF THE PRUNE’S BEAUTY SECRETS EXPOSED. “Nature never deceives you,’’ rhapsodized Sir Humphry Davy, the chemist. “Her fruits are all balmy and sweet; she affords none of those blighted ones so common in the life of man, and so like the fabled apples of the Dead Sea, fresh and beautiful to the sight, but, when tasted, full of bitterness and ashes.” Not so with the. modern and. sophisticated prune, however, which Justice O’Hallaron has exposed in yanities and deceptions that are al- most human. Probing the prune with a judicial ruthlessness of research that penetrated her most recondite mysteries and laid bare the strange Secreta of her beauty and charm, the learned Judge, if cruel inquisitor, has betrayed her in all the hideous artifice of unwilling and bitter old age. Sed° to say, what we mistook for fresh young beauty was in reality the result of a sort of facia) massage and an enamel mask. Withered and siirunken prunes are softened and rejuvenated through a “process” and then fixed up by the Mbeauty doctor with pataffin, which gives them an, apparently lovely romplexion. Now awful beauty puts on all its arms: The Fair cach moment rises in her charms, Repairs her amiles, awakeus @véery grace, _ And calle forth all the wonders of her face. Alas for vanity! If the prune has béen sailing ‘under false pretenses all these years we are sorry, }yet glad, to hear it. Jubtice O'Halloran deserves ‘the thanks of thé ‘greater portion of mankind for exposing her in her trne character. ee aes ae A, . ‘Former Gov.

The Cabanne Protest. To the Kditor of the Post-Dispatch. An object lesson of practical value was furnished Monday night by the residents of a certain district in the West End, bearing on the question of prohibition, An effort is being made to establish a beer garden in this section and 200 indignant citizens met and organ- ized to protest and “fight’’ against it. Why? First, because it will injure MY property, and MY children must not be contaminated by even the INFLUENCE of such a “place.’’ To all of ‘which. I say amen; but, if this be tur,e aud I do not want my children ‘‘contaminated,”’ is it right to ‘‘eontaminate’’. any- body else’s children by allowing beer gardens or sa- loons anywhere? JUSTICE. Not for Stone. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. “Democracy,’ speaking of the convention at De Soto that indorsed. Stone for Senator Monday. says: “The name of Jefferson County should be changed. Thomas Jefferson would never have indorsed Witiam Joel Stone.’’ I hasten to relieve Jefferson County of the charge. Let the writer call back four years, when this same gang in De Soto indorsed Harry Hawes for Governor, and sent the word broadcast over the State that Jefferson County was for Hawes. But some two months later, when Jefferson County as a whole voted their choice for Governor, Joseph W. Folk carried the county by more than two to one Hawes. Let “‘Democracy” be consoled. Jef- is not for Stone for the Senate, or DEMOCRAT. J ferson County anything else. The Defeated Maiden. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. When reading “Miss L. E. Vateds"’ statement in Saturday evenings Post-Dispatch, I could not resist from answering it, as I have had a similar experience myself. I am young, 19 years of age. I have an e!e- gant bome and everything in it to make me bappy. I! am accomplished in music, prize dancer. and all other beneficial accomplishments of a girl.of my age. I have, always been taught to be economical with the price cf my clothes, and I know that I never wore an “$18 hat,”’ and I am always dressed up to date. Yet with all it seems to me that it is a hard task for a girl even in my circumstances to get any enjoyment. Whenever I meet a young man he gets greatly inter- ested in me for my jolly disposition and my neat ap- pearance, but that's all the further they go. I have ever had a young man to even ask to escort me to a theater or any other places of amusement. “MISS SENSIBLE.” The Lesson From Hard Times. To the Zditor of the Post-Dispatch. When one reads of YY-4 Me and others who claim to be called economical eating up $49.40 worth of gro- eceries per month while trying to maintain a family consisting of two or three persons, we who have: to pay rent (or pay on our home we are trying to buy) and buy clothes on $45 to $55 a month salaries, wonder whet some people mean by “economy.” A majority of the wholesale clerks (and I think I might add re- tail also) and mechanics (counting idle time) do not average over this amount. The great lesson, then, before us is to really learn what economy means and save for the ‘rainy day.’’ As with nations, so with individuals, it is more important what we are than what we have, since we can lose the latter, but the former is part of ourselves. I recoinmend to such the 10-cent book, “Simple Life,’’ by Pastor Wagner; also Tolstoy’s writings, since true life and happiness consists not in abundance but in enjoyment. FE. W. The East Side Trade. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. Some St. Louis newspapers are quoting East St. Louis as if it were in China or some other place, when. it really is a very important part of our city. All our merchants desire to do business there and in St. Clair County, with its large and thrifty population. Chicago drummers are working East St. Louis and the whole county, much to the disadvantage of our city merchants. East St. Louis is nearer to the busi- ness center of our city than South, West or North &t. Louis, and will surely hold its place. A couple of wagon bridges to East St. Louis, between Carr and Poplar streets, would be of immense value to our city and would give work to thousands of men and teams. If every merchant had the privilege to hau) his freight free from East St. Louis, one bridge like the Eads would not have the room to hold the teams. JOHN VINCE, The Quickest Way to Kiil Trees. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. If you want to see beautiful, perfect trees this‘ spring, trees that gladden the eyes with full sweep of bratiches, sweet with buds and tender green, do not leok for them in St. Louis, but, if you have a fancy for “‘beanshooters,”’ take a ride to the Reservoir Park, where they trim trees with a tape line. The proper building line for trees is 20 feet. Whenever an obstreperous tree, particularly a sycamore or soft thaple, evinces a desire to climb a little farther into the blue sky, select the most ignorant man you can find, He sure he knows nothing about trees, give him & saw and other necessary implements of forture and let him saw off the largest branches where they are afoot or two in diameter. Tell the man to ex- ‘poke as much of the marrow as possible, so the bore ~ can get in. Bore worms will kill the treo faster than even the rain and it is the object of the people in St. Louis to kill a tree in the most scientific Way after it is three feet high.

REFLECTIONS OF A BACHELOR GIRL.

BY HELEN ROWLAND. The Mask’s Thanks. | Dear Miss Ayer: immense

affair has become a bit stale. A wife sort of loses her awe and admiration for men after she has seen her husband without a collar anti with his face covered with shaving lather and his top imir sticking up in tufts. If you want to he really popular pat a bald man on the head: call an old man “naughty boy;” treat a young man with timid respect; cling to a little man like the vine to the mighty oak, and tell a fat man how you love to dance with him. Bridegrooms fiave that sheepish look because every one of them is morally certain that he is a lamb being led to the slaughter. The man who declares a friend innocent even when he knows he is guilty, and defends a woman's reputation even when it is scarcely worth defending, is not written down a liar by the recording angel. Odd how a man always gets remorse confused with reform; a cold bath, a dose of bromo-seltzer, and his wife's forgiveness will make him feel so moral that he will begin to patronize you. ] "= rather sad to see how easily a man gets “that tired feeling’ after a love

THACKERAY’S DAUGHTER. RS. RICHMOND RITCHIE is now Lady Ritchie, her husband having been knighted, says the Lounger in Putnam's. It is, however, as Anne Thackeray, as the daughter of her father and as a writer of rare dis- tinction and charm, that she will be best remembered. In a country where

M titles count for much, it is well that they should be as worthily disposed as in this case, and Sir Richmond has earned his K. C. B. by long and devoted public service; but that his wife is Lady Ritchie does not add to her attrac- tions, for the simple reason that it would be gilding refined gold. When I say that she is every inch her father’s daughter, I pay her the highest com- pliment in my power.

ume: weeks she had expert facial massage three times a week. Last Thursday she submitted to an operation for lifting up the sagging skin of the cheeks, and she also had the very deep wrinkle, which was almost a dent, between the brows filed in by a subcutaneous injection. As soon as the wrinkle was filled in her face took on the expression of wide-eyed placidity, which is so typically youth- ful. The Woman with the Mask four weeks ago had deep hollows under her eyes, the skin of the face being distinctly sallow in coloring and was particularly yellowish right under the eyes. Her coloring is now usually good. The skin is a good ivory, and she has color in her cheeks. The hollows under her eyes have not entirely disappeared, but they are no longer conspicuously deep, and the eyes themselves are brilliant and clear, the eyeballs having lost that yellow tinge which they had. To round her neck and fill in the hollows in the chest, the Woman with the Mask has practiced neck exercises daily and deep breathing, besides wearing a brace which kept her shoulders back, her chest up and made it impossible for her to continue the shallow breathing which she had been in the habit of doing and which made her hollow-chested, weak and easily tired. In the matter of breathing chest deveilopment the Woman with the Mask has really accomplished wonders. She realized at once how much good deep breathing and fresh air would do for her. Her insomnia is cured and her nervousness has given way to a feeling of vitality and strength. On the spirometer, the little breathing machine which registers the amount of air inhaled and expelled by the lungs, she shows 60 cubic inches more than -she did at first. The Woman with the Mask is a vegetarian. When I retire to my castle in Spain l will be a vegetarian, too. In the meantime she was a vegetarian—a vegetarian with’ stomach trouble, so we went to a food specialist, who makes a specialty of combining the right kind of food elements for individual needs. If you can be a vegetarian on the right combinations, you're all right. And so our patient has been gaining week by week a little and Is completely rid of the stomach trouble, sort of nervous dyspepsia that made her fee! and look the miserable wretch she was. The food she has eaten has varied every week, beginning with very smal! quantities, until the stomach was used to the new regime, and at present drink- ing from three to four quarts of milk a day with side dishes in the way of eggs and cereals. The hands of the Woman With the Mask have been the slowest to improve. Hands tell the story of age, deprivation, of physical suffering gone through, and it takes a long time before these signs can be effaced. They have been treated with massage and electricity and are somewhat bétter in appearance, not quite so emaciated and the veins not quite so prominent. The muscles of the fore and upper arm are strengthened, and the mask’s back shows the gain in strength as much as does her face.

A wife sort of loses her awe and admiration for men after she has seen her husband without a collar and with his face covered with shaving lather and his top ‘lair sticking up in tufts. If you want to he really popular pat a bald man on the head; call an old man “naughty boy;” treat a young man with timid respect; cling to a little man like the vine to the mighty oak, and tell a fat man how you love to dance with him. Bridegrooms fiave that sheepish look because every one of them is morally certain that he is a lamb being led to the slaughter. The man who declares a friend innocent even when he knows he is guilty, and defends a woman’s reputation even when it is scarcely worth defending, is not written down a liar by the recording angel. Odd how a man always gets remorse confused with reform: a cold bath, a dose of bromo-seltzer, and his wife’s forgiveness will make him feel so moral that he will begin to patronize you. benefit I have never expected to renew my youth to this extent, and certainly I nev- er expected to feel so strong and well again. Don’t think that I am going to drop the work now that your personal interest in it has ceased.

ThePIANOLA PIAN THE MOST REMARKABLE PIANO OF THE AGE

OUR weeks ago-I undertook the experiment of building up a nerve- After Four Weeks’ Treatment the Broken Down O. Society Woman Is Rejuvenated Under the Care of the Post-Dispatch Expert on Health. BY MARGARET HUBBARD AYER. F wrecked, broken-down society woman and restoring her to health and good looks. I am happy to say that the experiment has proved sat- isfactory to her, and has demonstrated that by simple methods a woman past 40 years of age can regain mucb of her youthful beauty and come into the fullness of her physical powers, which should be in their prime at this, the zenith of her life. The woman who submitted to this experiment has been called the Woman with the Mask, because, as every woman will understand, she did not care to have her features recognized by er friends. For the same obvious reason her name is withheld. Four weeks ago she weighed 127 pounds; she now weighs 132, there being a gain of five pounds in the four weeks. The height of the woman with the mask is 5 feet 7% inches, and with this height she should weigh about 153 pounds. She will continue the treatment laid down for her, which she has been fol- lowing during the last four weeks, for two months more, and by that time she expects to have attained her correct weight. The start is always :he hardest part, and it was only the siart which I undertook to give her, with the aid of well-known food scientists and other specialists. The Woman with the Mask is a typical example of thousands of other women who may be said to suffer from unequal distribution of weight. Her hips are far larger in proportion than the structure of the body warrants. She showed at the beginning of the treatment signs of extreme emaciation in the face, neck and hands. And in common with all women who live the stren- uous life either of society or business, she looked prematurely aged, there being very deep lines in her forehead and strongly marked lines from nose to mouth and at the corners of the mouth running under the chin. These lines for the most part have been obliterated. For the first three

O. HENRY DRESS

T IS related by those who ought to 1 know that at a certain social gath- ering recently an enthusiastic admir- er greeted Mrs. O. Henry, the wife of the novelist (Sydney Porter), who was present on the occasion, with a burst of unconcealed delight: “Oh, Mfrs. O. Henry,” she exclaimed, “I have been just longing for this opportunity—and I am sure you will not deny me. Could you—will you—tell me why it is that your husband always dresses his hero- ines in crepe de chine?’ The query proved too much for Mrs. O. Henry, who accordingly referred the matter that evening to her husband. After a painful interval of silence, the novelist replied, with a somewhat feeble attempt at a smile: “‘Why, the fact is, my dear, there are only two kinds of material used for feminine clothing with which I am personally familiar. One of these is crepe de chine and the other is cal- ico. Now, on thinking the matter over carefully, it «id not seem appropriate to dress a heroine in calico, so I adopted the simple and happy expedient of ar- raying them all = crepe de chine.” a —s COMPLEXION RECIPE Obtain from your druggist the fol- lowing: Two ounces Rose Water; one ounce Spirits Cologne; four ounces Sar- toin.

Last Thursday she submitted to an operation for lifting up the sagging skin of the cheeks, and she also had the very deep wrinkle, which was almost a dent, between the brows filed in by a subcutaneous injection. As soon as the wrinkle was filled in her face took on the expression of wide-eyed placidity, which is so typically youth- ful. The Woman with the Mask four weeks ago had deep hollows under her eyes, the skin of the face being distinctly sallow in coloring and was particularly yellowish right under the eyes. Her coloring is now usually good. The skin is a good ivory, and she has color in her cheeks. The hollows under her eyes have not entirely disappeared, but they are no longer conspicuously deep, and the eyes themselves are brilliant and clear, the eyeballs having lost that yellow tinge which they had. To round her neck and fill in the hollows in the chest, the Woman with the Mask has practiced neck exercises daily and deep breathing, besides wearing a brace which kept her shoulders back, her chest up and made it impossible for her to continue the shallow breathing which she had been in the habit of doing and which made her hollow-chested, weak and easily: tired. In the matter of breathing chest development the Woman with the Mask has really accomplished wonders. She realized at once how much good deep breathing and fresh air would do for her. Her insomnia is cured and her nervousness has given way to a feeling of vitality and strength. On the spirometer, the little breathing machine which registers the amount inhaled and expelled by the lungs, she shows 60 cubic inches more The Woman with the Mask is a vegetarian.

Because of the two days of rain, the spring series will now ve limited to six games. This rheans that the Browns will have a dandy chance to split even on the games and there will be no city champion this summer. The Cardinals now. have two games to their credit.

If Waddell pitches the game today, Howell will work Friday. This means that probably Jack Powell will work in the Saturday game and Rube will come back for the final game Sunday. The Cardinals have no worry over pitchers. McCloskey has a half dozen that could go in the box today if neces- sary and any one of them could be de- pended upon to go at top speed. He wants to display the work of Young Higginbotham, b he has many others who could do mely.

a Bout Will Be Twenty. Rounds in Frisco at 123 Pounds April 20.

Epecial to the Post-Dispatch. BAN FRANCISCO, April 9.—‘‘Brook- lyn” Tommy Sulivan, former boxing instructor of the Missouri Athletic Club of St. Louis, and Abe Attell, who finished his ring education in the same city, have been matched to fight 20 rounds at the Coliseum here April 20. The men are to weigh in at 5 o’clock in the afternoon at 123 pounds. Attell demanded and. will receive the long end of the purse, win, lose or draw. He will be guaranteed $3000 for his share of the mohey. Sullivan will receive $1250 and $250 additional if the gate receipts gO over ; Different promoters throughout the country have been trying to bring At- tell and Sullivan together for some time. The weight question was the stumbling block that had to be removed. Atteli insisted on Sullivan making 122 pornee ringside, the featherweight limit. ullivan could not make this weight and also refused to make 122 pounds in the afternoon of the day of the fight. The men finally agreed on the com- promise of Sullivan making 123 pounds at 56 p. m. on April 30. : Betting on the result of the Britt-Me- Farland fight to take place in this city Saturday is light. McFarland is the fa- ,vorite to win at 10 to 9. Both men are Imost at weight, 183 pounds. McFar- and did some fast work in his boxing bout esterday, while Britt went nine hard rounds with his sparring partners. Battling Nelson has left for the moun- tains on a hunting trip as preliminary training for his 45-round battle with Joe Gans. The date has not been set, but Jimmy Coffroth already has Nelson signed up. If the winner of the McFar- land-Britt fight puts up a good bout ft is probable that Gans will be asked to meet the winner before hoxing Nelson. FORSHAW WILL BE SENT 70 LONDON IF HE Is _ WINNER OF MARATHON M. A. C. Run Made Official Trial for Selecting Entrants to the Olympic Games. Joe Forshaw of the Missouri A. C. is the favorite to win the annual Mis- souri A. C. Marathon race to be run May 2. If he wins he will be sent to London to x preers America in the Olympic games, next fall, ames E. Sullivan notified Eddie Lee of the M. A. C. last night by tele- graph that the M. A. C. race would be considered an official trial to make the All-American team that will be sent to London. .The winner of the Boston Marathon race will also be named to represent America. The M. A. C. race will be run over the 25-mile course from Freeburg, 111., to the Missouri A. C.. Forshaw was on the All-American team that won the championship for America in the Olympic games held at Athens, Greece, two years ago. Forshaw ran in the Marathon race, but finished back in the ruck. Forshaw won the M. A, C. race three years ago, but for the last two years Sammy Hatch of Chicago has won the M. A. C. event. Forshaw, in his training, is showing excellent form and last Sunday ran from Beileville, Ill., to the M. A. C in remarkably fast time in spite of the mud and bad going on railroad tracks.

PACKEY EXPECTS TO DROP BRITT slicnipieoloa Chicago Fighter Thinks He Will Win on Knockout Before 12 Rounds. _

Special to the Post-Dispatch. SAN FRANCISCO, April 9.—‘I don't want any decision over Jimmy Britt. I want to knock him out and I think I’ll do it before that fight of ours has gone 12 rounds. “I’m betting money I will win and I am wiring my friends in Chicago to bet on me.’’. So says Packey McFarland, the pride of Chicago, who has ore confidence than any fighter seen hefe in years. “I never went into a fight in which I was not a favorite,’ Packey said, ‘‘and it does not bother me because I am favorite. What's the betting? Ten to nine. Well, I suppose it will be 10 to 7 by ringtime. My strength is going to pull Britt down. I think I'll just fight him out and then come along and win. I never had a hard fight, you know. All my battles have been easy for me, but I know I can stand some punishing if I have to.’’ COLT BY FAMOUS SIRE AND DAM ARRIVES AT THE BELMONT FARM Imp. Rocksand-Beldame Youngster Will Be Watched Closely ' by Horsemen. NEW YORK, April 9.—Announce- ment is made here that the famous mare Beldame foaled a bay colt by Imp. Rocksand, at the Nursery stud of August Belmont near Lexington, Ky., April 4. The future of this young- ster, said to be a fine looking colt, is certain to be watched with interest by horsemen in all parts of the country. Rocksand cost his owner $125,000 in England two years ago, and Beldame’'s foal is one of the first sired by the famous English horse since his arrival in this country. Rocksand’s record in England included the winning of the Derby, the St. Leger and the Two Thousand Guineas. This makes him one of the few winners of the classic triple crown of the English turf. Beldame was almost invincible as a 8-year-old, and as a 4-year-old she won the Suburban handicap of 1903, beating, among others, Proper and First Mason. a “AMERICUS” DEFEATS BEELL Baltimore Wrestler Gains Second Fall Quickly After First. BALTIMORE, April 9.—‘‘Americus” (George Scoenlein) last night defeated Fred Beell by winning the first two falls of a wrestling match :that was to have been best two in three. The first fall was gained by ‘‘Ameri- cus’ in 21 minutes and the second in 2 minutes. Yale Weight Record Broken. CAMBRIDGE, Mass., April 9.—Yale’s hammer throw record has been broken by Garroll Cooney, the football guard. He tossed the weight 161 feet, bettering Tom Shevlin’s figures by 11 inches.

SHORTSTOP’ IS “SAFEST. BERTH Tenants of This Baseball Posi- tion Suffer Least Wear and Tear. Why do shortstops last longer than other inflelders? The records show clearly that they do—that the shortstop, once established with a club, goes on year after year, sometimes till the very date of his coming is only a tradition, while the other fellows pass in and out in shoals and herds. There are cases where the shortstop has seen a whole club come and go. There are cases where men have played shortstop on the first day of their entrance to the big league, and when the blue en- velope arrived it was almost a genera- tion later, every man who was with the club when the shortstop came has van- ished, and five new rs have governed the shortstop’s career. Look at the length of time that Glasscock, Ward and Herman Lang ploy sho or the number of years that Dahlen an Davis have gamboled round the same old territory. Chicago’s Veteran Ghertatene: The records of the Chicago Nation League club give a good example o the way the shortsto last. Since Ed Williamson played his last game for the National « ment 19 years have passed, and ! of time the shortstops who p place long enough to be tho membe were Cooney, and Tinker. s.

BIG WELL ROAR, FEARS. A QUAKE Similar Phenomena Occurred at Time of Mexican Ca- tastrophe.

CHICAGO. April @—Chicago has a “roaring well.”” For two weeks roar- ings and gusts and drafts of wind, sim- flar to the disturbances emanating from the well of Charles Lathers, the Beloit (Wis.) farmer, before the earthquake vt ipeen ag Mexico, have come from it, still comin “The Fed well is astet in the power house of the Chicago & North- western Railway at Kinzie street and the north branch of the Chicago River. It “broke out” about two weeks ago and since that time various bodies of men whose lives have been devoted to inves- the puzzles which nature has beneath the surface of the earth have nd looked at the well, and beard it “boil,” and caught cold from the draft it makes, without reaching eny tenable explanation for the phe- nomenon. The purely business aspect of the well and its surroundings heighten the un- canny effect of its peculiar manifesta- tions. A visit to it led past boiler rooms and coal piles, into a sort of storeroom, where a five-inch pipe came up through the floor, turned at right angles and went off through the wall. . Sounds Like Machinery. From underneath the floor came a gound as of many printing presses, and from the 10-inch jacket which sur- rounds the water ee to a depth of 100 feet or more, sating blasts of air _Bwept up. here’s the machinery?’ was the natural question. E. A. Gingrich, the engineer at the power plant, laughed. “That's what we'd like to know,” he said. “Put your head down closer.’’ When his advice was followed, the #ound changed te the troubled boiling of water in an iron tank, rumbling an jarring. The air came sharply. It is pure air, apparently, without odor and as fresh as that which blew in through the door of the engine room. “This well has been running for 14 ears or so,’’ explained Mr. ingrich. ‘Tt has always behaved until two weeks ago. Then this noise and the wind started and they have kept up ever since. The well is worked by com- ressed air; that is, air is driven down feet and drives the water up when it comes back. I thought maybe that had something to do with it, so I shut off the'air, but the noise and wind kept ri ht on.’ he construction of the well added to the mystery. The 10-inch “jacket” runs down 100 feet. From that level the well goes down 250 feet through a hole bored through solid. rock to water. Engineers are unable to explain how under these conditions the air could penetrate the *jacket,’’ A. J. Farrelly, electrical engineer of the Chicago & Northwestern Railway; W. L. Curtis’ resident engineer on a new bridge which the railway company is pbuilding across the river, and B. F. Murphy, chief engineer of the Great Lakes Dredge and Dock Co., are among those who have tried to read the riddle

‘The pulsations in the well are syn- ghronous with those of the air compres- »gors.on.the bridge caisson work,” said ‘Mr. Farrelly. ‘We know that, but it does not account for the noise, nor the wind, nor how either would get inside the jacket yg Presence of the roaring well in Chi- following the Mexican earthquake, ann a volcanic eruption which was _ re- ported from Guatemala, aroused inter- est from a sort of symbolic standpoint among political, local option and reform interests of all sorts as signifying an upheaval a Scenes which will make Guatemala blush.

RANK HYPOCRITE CHARGES YATES 5 Former Ilinois Chief Execu- tive Seeks Nomination for Another Term. ATTACKS _ IN Will Talk 300 Times to Show His Ideas Have Been Stolen. SPEECH WOODSTOCK, Ill., April 9.—Former Gov. Richard Yates has opened his campaign for a nomination for another term by attacking Gov. Deneen and bis admifiistration. In a speech here last night, the first of 900 he will make be- fore the end of the campaign, he began the fight. The Deneen administration, he charged, was shamelessly extrava- gant and inefficient. He terms the ad- ministration one of ‘“‘fake reform.” In his two hours’ speech, “canting liypocrites’’ and other phrases were freely used in describing the Deneen following. The administration was attacked for permitting an increase in the tax levy after promising retrenchment and econ- omy in the State’s affairs. The investi- gation of the asylums, in which inhu- manity to the inmates was charged, was a choice morsel for the speaker. Yates also declared Deneen had stolen credit for the reforms that he himself had_ put under way. The pri- mary electioh law, he said, was a Yates idea stolen by Deneen, after he saw that the péople would have nothing alse. A trunk full of documents was brought by the speaker to back up the charges he had made. VANDERBILT SAYS AMERICA’S HIS HOME, BUT HE’LL TOOL A COACH IN OLD ENGLAND Alfred Gwynne Reticent as to His Private Affairs, but Voluble About. Horses. Special Cable to the Post-Dispatch and New York, World Copyright 1008, by the Press Pub. Co. ew York World.) LONDON, vAwedd 9.—‘‘I am not going to settle in London permanently,” said Alfred Gwynne Vanderbilt to the Post- Dispatch correspondent. 7 “America 1s my‘ home and always will _ be. I have taken a flat here on a long lease, but there’s no harm in that. 1 shall probably spend a part of every Summer here in future. You may say I am doing this because I like it.’’ That is all Mr. Vanderbilt would say about his private affairs, but he was willing to talk long about his horses. He had just come to Westcroft Farm, where he made a tour of the stables. He took out every animal and, with Manager Wilson, drove them in pairs, tandem or four-in-hand. He says they ail are in the best condition and have * become acclimated rapidly. Today Mr. Vanderbilt completed his arrangements for starting the Venture Ceach and fixed the fares at $3 and $8.76. The English aristocracy and the proleteriat alike will be able to ride to Brighton“® the coach, and for the extra 75 cents may sit on the box seat and rub shoulders with the young mil- lienatre. “TT want the coach to be absolutely democratic,” he said. “There is to be no favoritism. Anyone who pays his money can ride. Cook’s man has orders to allot the first seats to the first comers."’ Coaching men ‘say that the coaches running last year were three parts emp- iY on most days. Tt is figured, on the other hand, that the prospect of riding with the million- aire will appeal to British snobbery. The ,coach will make its first trip May 4. ot: Busy Bee Bargain Day Tomorrow. _ Assorted cream almonds, 20c a pound. a WHITE WIFE "SETS MONSTER SPIDER ON POLICEMEN IN COURTROOM iature Octopus, Turned Loose ns in Pittsburg Tribunal, y ~ Bites One.

NEW YORK, April 9.—In the Vander- gallery of the National Academy of Design where the Wighty-third An- nual exhibition of the National Academy of Design is being held, there hangs a small landscape called “Evening Shad- ows’’ behind which is the story of a for- eign born boy's struggle for recognition in the art world of this country. “The painter of the picture, which hangs next to John La Farge’s big can- “vas, “The Wolf Tamer,” is George Da- vision of 5 St. Mark’s place. Davidson was born in Russia something over eigl.- teen years ago. Two years ago he came to New York from Hartford, | Conn., poor and without influential friends. Ho went to work in the shop of a jcrayon artist drawing draperies for backgrounds for the crayon artist's portraits. Then, when the day’s work was done, the boy went to his hall bedroom and tried to master the work in oil. The crayon artist soon realized that the boy was destined for something better. He advised him to send some of his drawings to the Art Students’ League and apply for admission as a night student. Davidson sent some of is drawings to the league. In a few days he received word that his drawings showed merit, and he could attend the night classes. a i dad Davidson continued to work for the crayon artist and from early morning until 6 o’clock in the evening he drew clothes and draperies for the crayon pictures. At 7 he was at work in the art students’ league. Soon the boy gota better job, but he continued to study and paint at night. A few weeks ago a friend suggested to Davidson that he should send one of his landscapes to this year’s exhibi- tion of the academy of design. He did so.and the picture was hung on the line. Last night a reporter found Davidson in the shop of a friend in «hird avenue, near St. Mark’s place. He was reticent about his career. “Of course I have no rich backers,” he said. “It is true that I worked in the crayon business, and it is true that I was born in Russia, but it is not true that I am only 18 years old. I am nearly 19. I don’t know what part of Russia I was born in. As for my work, I hope I have made some progress. The future will tell. At any rate, I am not going to blow my own horn just yet.” e It was about 6:30 o'clock then, and the young man stopped talking and started for the subway. He was on his way to night school.

Ha: > ; an Rg ‘ > - ee : “The lightning bug is brilliant; It hasn’t any mind; It struggles through existence With its headlight on behind.’’ Then arose the mighty Williams, dac- tyls and spondees shooting from every hair in his head and s@rcasm bulging out of the corners of his mouth. “] Wonder When.” “Mr. Speaker,”’ he said, ‘‘a little poem entitled ‘Ready to Enact,’ after Thomas Bailey Aldrich, might, perhaps, interest the House, might interest the country, also, although thag phrase outrages the feelings of the gentleman from New York, Mr. Payne. It reads as follows: I wonder what day of the week, I wonder what month of the year— Will it be winter or summer, And who of us then will be here? What a glorious fancy to dream ow full of delight and lure! How soft is the congressman’s speech: And yet how entrancingly sure! The thought gives a thrilling of joy; Inspiring the doupter with cheer— But—I wonder what day of the week, 1 wonder what month of the year. “The other day the gentleman from New York (Mr. Payne), ..:e Sir Bom- bastes Furioso, rose up on the floor and wanted the world to know that the ma- jority would consider what it pleased, when it pleased, and vote on nothing except what it pleased. “During the same legislative day we knocked that boast out his lips, becanse we forced him, whether he would or not, and -we forced the majority, wheth- er it would or not, vote upon free wood pulp, and upon a modification of the in- junction laws in the interest of the pre- servation of the rights of the States, and upon a proposition for the modifica- tion of the injunction laws in the inter- ests of labor. “The President and I are going to legislate a little bit before we get through, all the same. I predict now that we will get out a wood pulp bill this Congress. I cannot predict that we will get a campaign contribution pub- licity bill, because it is too near elec- tion, when you need your campaign funds.”’ Some Wonderful Meter. In his speech a few days ago Wil- liams told how, after the war was over, he wis sent with his old negro nurse, Lucy, to Memphis, to be placed at school, and how he had become fright- ened at the loud noise made on a Chi- nese gong at Grand Junction, Miss. He said that that noise taught him a lesson and she hau never t:en afraid of the noise made by Sereno «ayne, the Re- publican floor jeader. “It must have been fifty years since that pathetic scene at Grand Junction, when Johnny and his nurse were there,” said Dalzell, “and as the gentleman from Mississippi quotes poetry, I trust he will allow me to also indulge in the same. ere was a dear little boy named Johnny, a dear ol med Luce; a4 Junction ‘Never mind,” said Johnny, ‘it's only a cal) oes.’ or aves a And when at length Johnny grew up ed his homespun othes That he had no mind for repose, The little fellows round looked on with de- While Johnny called for the ayes and noes.
