Her language was so incoherent, and her physical condition was so pitiable, that the policeman took her to the City Hospital, where she was placed in the observation ward. When she reached the hospital, Miss Robbe held a market basket, which she refused to relinquish. The attendants finally coaxed her to let go the basket, and looked inside it.

M. l4 Holman. former Water Com- misioner of St. Louis, was recently employed by the Union Electric Light and Power Co. to compare its present rates with the former ones. Mr. Hol- man drew a series of charts for the purposes of making the comparisons. Mr. Holman told a Post-Dispatch reporter that after comparing the present rates with the old ones he had arrived at the “CONCLUSION” that of the latter’s demand for an opportun- |. ity for an autopsy.

Woman Football Crank Becomes Real Maniac Special to the Post-Dispatch. PHILADELPHIA, May 21. — The American Neurological Association, holding its thirty-fourth annual meeting at the College of Physicians, was told by Dr. Charles K. Mills and Dr. Charles H. Frazier of the University of Penn- sylvania of a strange case of a wom- an, whose enthusiasm for football be- came an actual mania. She finally became irresponsible at one of the games. When operated upon she was found to have a cyst in her brain three inches in diameter. “She couldn’t get enough of football,” said Dr. Mills. “‘She attended games here; then she went to New York for more. She went to the Harvard-Indian game in Boston, and rushed back here again for the’ Army and Navy game. Every time she went, however, ‘she would become very nauseated and diz- zy.” After her operation her recovery was rapid and virtuaMy complete. Suffragettes Jeer Asquith; 6 in Cells LONDON, May) 21.—Downing street was the scene of another outbreak by the suffragettes today. For an hour or more several hundred of them filed around Premier Asquith’s office and up and down Downing and the adjacent streets. The police charged the crowd and made use of their clubs. The women and their sympathizers jeered and fought the police, but not until six arrests had been made and many rioters clubbed were the police able to disperse the crowd. Today's trouble arose over Premier Asquith’s refusal to make a reply to a petition that was sent him. The six women taken into custody al! went to prison for periods of from one week to one month rather than give recognizances for their geod behavior. Women Tarand Feather Wyoming Wife Beater Special to the Post-Dispatch. ENCAMPMENT, Wyo., May 21.—Ros- cee K. Beemer, a convicted wife-beater living near here, was taken from his home at night by a posse of women, wives of men employed in the mines, given 20 lashes on his bare back, ducked several times in a big barrel of water, tarred and feathered from his waist to his head and then put on ae ferice rail

dog from which Marsh was infected, ill today from excitement and worry. Both she and young Marsh are taking the Pasteur preventive treatment and the latter continues in excellent health. Physicians at the institute say they think neither of the patients are in any danger. Replying to the suggestion from vari- ous gwources that Marsh was really.a victim, not of rabies, but of fright and nervousness, Dr. Fiske, the specialist called in toward the end, points out that the patient was not bitten and had no idea that he was in danger until symptoms of the disease began to ap- pear, Physicians Are Astunded. Marsh's coolness astounded the physi- cians. His first thought, after being told the nature of the complaint, was to send warning to ail the employes at his factory who had handled the dog, to take the Pasteur treatment imme- diately. When the doctors of the Pasteur In- stitute treated Mr. Marsh last Monday they asked him if anyone else had come in contact with the dog. He said that his son, Ramsey, and Miss Thompson had petted the:animal while it was in the factery in Robinson street. Two Others Get Treatment. Miss Thompson and Ramsey Marsh went to the Pasteur Institute on Tues- day to be treated. Miss Thompson did not tell the doctors that the dog had bit- ten her, but today she admitted that such had been the case. “I was about to pat the dog on the back one day, when it jumped at my face and bit me in the cheek,’ she said. “IT guess there is no danger, though.” “Did the dog draw blood?’’ she was asked. “Yes, my face was scratched by its teeth,”” she answered, calmly. She said that the Pasteur Institute doctors had asked her. te undergo a complete course of treatment, extending over twenty-three consecutive days, but that she felt that she could not spare the time. May Investigate Case. The case of the elder Marsh, to whom a doctor is said to have administered a drug which destroyed his consciousness before he died, was brought up last night at the May meeting of the Medi- co-Legal Society at the Waldorf. Clark Bell, the vcteran president of the society, told the conditions of the case and recommended that a com- mittee be appointed to investigate it. Mr. Bell said it was a serious question how far a docter, even at the request of a patient, might take into his own hands the power to remove life or consciousness. A friend of Mr. Marsh, he said, upon reading that he had been condemned to die from hydrophobia by the doctors who examined him, visit- ed Mr. Marsh's house with the belief that he could help him. Vistted House Before Protest. “This gentleman was the follower of nc so-called healing cult, but a practi- cal business man of scientific training, who knew Mr. Marsh through business matters, and believed that it was thoroughly unneccessary for a strong man of his type to die under such circumstances or to be centroiued by the influence of fear which had. evi- dently been injected into his mind, con- sciously or unconsciously,” said Mr. Bell,

SPRINGFIELD, Ill., May 21.—Stand- ing 110 feet high and swaying in the gentle northwest breeze, its basket filled with fur coats, a lime stove and provisions for five men for four days’ travel, the world’s biggest balloon is inflated on the edge of the business dis- trict of Springfield, ready to sail away this evening for the Atlantic. coast, C.

Senator to Miss Wood, which were turned over to him by Abraham Hum- mel upon payment of $10,000, he said, and there were no such communica- tions among them as the alleged copies produced in court. Mr. Platt also testified that no letters received?’ from Hummel contained any, reference to a marriage betWeen Senatcr Platt and Miss Wood. ‘He said that after reading the letters he personally destroyed them by burning them in «a grate in his office. Examined Letters Carefully. Mr. Platt said he examined all the letters carefully before burning them in the grate in his office. He was then shown the typewritten letter, beginning “My Little Bride-to-Be,”” and asked if there was any such letter In the pack- age. “There was not,’’ was the reply. All the copies of letters that Miss Wood alleged to have received from the Senator, and, as she averred, got by her from Hummel, were shown the witness, and he declared there were no such letters received from Hummel. Mr. Platt said that none of the letters contained any reference to marriage, Miss Wood, wo was present in court, asked permission to personally cross- examine Mr. Piatt. Her request was refused. Miss Wood is a member of the Nebraska bar. Willing to Pay $10,000. On cross-examination Mr. Platt said many of the letters from his father to Miss Wood were brief notes of invita- tion. He was willing to pay $10,000 for their return, he said, for his father was about to be married to Mrs. Janeway and he and his father thought it would be best to get rid of Miss Wood. “What was your object .in destroy- ing some of these letters?” he was asked. “Well, the plaintiff was writing for the letters and going to the ‘newspa- pers and I did not think that she had stayed bought, and I destroyed all but a few of the letters. There was no suggestion of marriage or divorce or dis- srace in any of the letters | destroyed.” The witness was asked about the tes- tirnony of the witness Rowland, who was the Senator’s valet, and how he knew about the letter in which the Senator is alleged to have admitted the mar- riage to Miss Wood. “Well, on Christmas day, 1996, my father got a letter from the plaintiff and while we were talking about it the telephone rang and I answered it. A voice that said she was Mae Wood re- plied’ and wanted to talk to my father. I told her she could not talk to him, and if she had anything to say to come down to my office and say it to me. Rowland was in the room, overheard the conversation, and then told me about the two women going to father’s room in Washirgtdén and asking for his autograph on the blank sheet of pa- per.”’ Lawrence Hill, a newspaper man, took the: stand as the first witness and tea- tified that he had interviewed Miss Wood in 1903, at which time she assured him that the Senator's matrimonia! af- fairs were of no intervst to her and all.

Manager James McAleer of the St. Louis Browns now is singing ‘“Connic”’ Mack’s old Rubatyat: ‘‘Where is Rube- at?’ The mighty Waddell has waddled again, and unless McAleer makes 4 noise like more advance money, Rube says, he will strike out for the bush leagues or go to work for a living. Waddell Thursday safd positively that he had quit the Browns for all time, and will join some otier.league. He ‘says that he is not bluffing and has no proposition of any kind to make to McAleer.

Over in Slumber- land, Pa., where Rube once helped the American Leaguers win the pennant, they have heard occasionally of Joseph W. Folk and David R.

The Million “Club never placed a better advertisement. But Waddell detests publicity. Twen- ty thousand persons had turned : rout Tuesday to see him pitch against his old teammates, and by some means several newspapers obtained his picture and published it. Rube brooded over it all night, and yesterday his indignation took the form of a demand for more money. He didn’t get it, and as a consequence McAleer left Philadeiphia last night humming “Where is my wandering boy tonight?’ Some of the Philadelphia ex- perts on Rube’s disappear- ance specialty be- lieve he will re- join the team aft- er it leaves Bos- ton. -AS a genera! thing Wea 4- dell spends his money as fast as he makes it, which is pretty fast, and by time to leave for Bos- ton last night practically his. only asset was a shotgun which x had been present- ed to him by his Slumber City admirers. It wasn't load- ed, and Rube failed to get the money. The sleeper in which the Browhs left Philadelphia wasn’t draped in black. McAleer’s departing tune wag ‘‘I don’t care if you never come back.’ There were no tears in the eyes of the other players. For the first time since the Rube joined and then deserted the team the players were assured of a good night's rest. Money Is “Tight.” “Pay Rube to come back?” said Mc- Aleer. ‘“‘No, no, positively no. So far as he is concerned, my cash drawer is , ‘

gency. “I’m not worrying about him. I knew what I was buying when I got him .from Connie Mack, and I made up my mire then that I wouldn't lose any sleep over his pecullarities. If he wants to, he can come back; if he doesn’t he can stay wherever he is, I don’t know where that Is. He won't stay put, and I'm not him do so." Tt is estimated that the crowd Pat - tracted to the baseball park Tuesday to see Rube pitch practically paid his salary. Waddell saw the money pour- ing into the box office, and he evidently thought it was a good time to make a hit. Instead, he was “walked.’”’ If he comes “home” he will have to do some fancy base eas.

The p.urtner died there, and Cham- berlain carried vut the. agreement. He kept the skull in uiec room all the time. Between the grinning teeth was thrust a cigarette, in the sockets of the eyes were tiny electric lights and rakishly balanced on one side of the skull was a battered straw hat.

A policeman shot one as they ran away; the other surrendered. The wounded student is Edgar H. Cook, of Albany, a freshman in the engineering department of the univer- sity. He is not expected to recover. His companion was Howard T. Cole, also a freshman, son of a wealthy resident of Brewsters, N. Y. Cook was removed to the J. Hood Wright Hospital, where he was put upon the operating table in gn effort to save his life. The other youth surren- dered at the first shot from tlhe po- liceman’s revolver. He was taken to the police station, where, completely unnerved by his friend’s misfortune, he sobbed out the story of the lark. Out for Breath of Air. “Cook and I are chums and fellow freshmen in Columbia,” said Cole. ‘‘We went out for a breath of air, and as we passed the lunch stand, Cook, in a spirit of fun, said: ‘Let’s put the place on the bum.’ “I said yes, and he ripped off his wooden sign. That was all there was to 1;”° The lunch stand had been robbed and partially wrecked repeatedly, and was being watched by Policeman Hurton on orders from headquarters. The police had not supposed that students com- mitted the depredations, ascribing them to neighborhood toughs.

Body, ; PITTSBURG, Pa., May 21.—Continua- tion today of the discussion of church union by the delegates attending the general conference of the Methodist Protestant Church, in session here, is expected to develop lively scenes. Following an address last night by the Rev. Dr. J. M. Sheridan of Balti- more, in which he intimated that men in the Methodist Protestant Church originated the proposition for the union of the body with the Methodist Episco- pal Church, Rev. Dr. Lewis, president of the M. P. general conterence, replied: “Tl want to know who means to in- sinuate that I have been a party to a dishonorable action. Painful must be the duty that makes you come to this conference and make jt appear that some man is a sneak. I tell you you cannot put me in that attitude. I am not sorry for what I have done. I am here to take the full responsibility for my actions. “Gossip has been going around the conference room and whisperings have frequently reached my ears that when the church union question came up there would be something doing. I gup- pose that, unless there is more dyna- mite behind this grand sensation, it is now expleded.”’

By a Staff Correspondent of the Post- Dispatch, JEFFERSON CITY, May 21.—Fol- the resignation of Judge Evans as chairman of the. Democratic State Committee, and the election of Harry M. Rubey of Macon as his suc- cessor, the committee voted early to- establish lowing day not to headquarters in St. Louis until after the August State primary. Lawler Dailey, chairman of the St. Louis City Committee, told the State Committee plainly that he did not want it “mixing in” city politics before the State primary. If the committee hg@d St. Louis headquarters, he said, there would be temptation to such interfer- ence, Owing chiefly to Daley’s protest, on motion of J. B. Shannon, the commiitee voted to have its headquarters in Chair- man Rubey’s bank at Macon until the State ticket has been made up. The committee’s session, which began soon after the adjournment of the State Con- vention, ended early this morning. Chairman Evans said he resigned be- cause he was a candidate for Governor. He delayed resigning because of an ef- fort to force his resignation. Francis Beats Wetmore. A significant feature of the convention was the selection of David R.

Wetmore is a personal friend of William J. Bryan, and was one of the largest individual contributors. to his campaign fund in 1896. In that cam- paign Francis supported the Palmer- Buckner sound money ticket. As a balm for his wounded feelings, the convention yesterday afternoon made Wetmore an alternate delegate to the National Convention along with former Govs. Crittenden, Dockery and Stephens.

Folk and Senator Stone, were ws ~~ tehosen as members of the “Big Four’’ by acclamation, and former Mayor Reed of Kansas City was similarly hon- ored by the majority of the delegates. Francis had gained a big lead, through the aid of the Stone forces, when Wet- more’s name was withdrawn by Col. “Nick” Bell of St. Louis, who had placed him in nomination, Then occurred a clever play, in which Senator Stoné was the central figure. The delegates were cheering alternately for Stone, Folk, Ball and other lead- ers, not of sufficient moment to justify its consideration at this convention, called for the discussion of national questions. “Tf negroes are criminals now they are disfranchised by conviction. If they are purchaseable, the laws provide for their punishment. If it Is Ignorance you oppose, then you must disfranchise a great many rugged old pioneers who would be disfranchised unless you put in a grandfather clause.”’ Rural Visitor Excited. Gov. Dockery never made a more ef- fective speech, and he never put a col- lar out of commission more quickhy. It was evident that a majority of the con- vention shared his views. James Con- ran supported him. Guy D. Kirby of Springfield made an anti-negro speech. While he was talk- ing a man who sat in the Fourteenth District delegation showed Signs of ex- citement. Tall, angular, red-faced, with a week’s growth of whiskers, his hair long and tousled, clothing that sadly needed repair or displacement, a huge hickory club for a cane, he was strug- gling with a temporary’ § indisposition that the warm weather made more pro- nounced. Crittenden sat on the platform. The man from near Arkansas shook hands with him twice. At the first chance this individual took the platform. : ‘T hate niggers,’’ he shouted. ‘‘Hur- rah for Tom Crittenden of Kansas City and Jeff Davis of Arkansas. I wisht Jeff Davis’’— At this.point a_ ser- geant-at-arms pulled him off the plat- form. John T. Heard of Sedalia tried to speak against Crittenden’s amendment. The friend from the woods found a place near the press table, and talked, too. gpaee-. Five minutes by the watch.

Educational Alliance Leader Hopes State Will Open Such a Tribunal.

In the ‘“‘Court of Tears,” at the Jew- ish Educational Alliance at Ninth and Carr streets, there appears on four nights in every week a pitiful flock of unhappy wives and husbands to pour out their domestic woes before Emil Mayer, their “judge,” a member of the corps of attorneys composing the legal aid department of the Alliance. Abandoned children, as well as de- serted wives and quarreling couples, make up the sad assemblages.

Mt BILLS FOR STREET PAVING Travilla Is Assured Action Will Be Taken Before the Summer, Vacation, Stroct Commissioner Travilla told a Post-Dispatch reperter Thursday that he had the assurance of leaders of the House of Delegates majority that the 12 asphalt paving bills and the four bithultihic bills, which have been. held up for more than a year, will be passed before the summer vacation of the Municipal Asse 5ly. These bills were held up by the Pub- lic Improvements Committee of the, House of Delegates. The principal. op- postion to them came from Delegates Warner and Priesmeyer. Warner for- merly was chairman of the Committee. He has been succeeded by W. J. Bren- nan,” Tlie Post-Dispatch, in its investigation into the failure to pass the bills, found that an effort was being made to hold mp certain imterests for money to be paid to a legislative agent, and the Post-Dispatch publications following that investigation are largely responsi- ble for the combine’s reported favorable attitude toward the measures flow. Wiliam R.: Coyme, now: under sen- tence for perjury in connection with Circuit Attorney Sager’s graft investi- gations, was trying to negotiate terms “with the asphalt i caamamads ae for the passage of the bills. Mr. Travilla said the bills would be ' taken up for a public hearing before “the Board of Public Improvements Fri- ay. As soon as possible thereafter, he “will forward them to the House of Dele- yates for introduction..

HELP! TIDAL WAVE OF MONEY DELUGES. AKINS ,™ — - Gets Two More Men to Shovel Back the Flood of Dollars.

WANTS ANOTHER ONE

Congress Will Send New Clerks to Rescue St. Louis Subtreasurer July 1.

Subtreasnfer Akins has so many dol- Jars he doesn’t know what to do. They come in faster than he can count them and sort them and get rid of them. He has something like 24,000,000 of them on hand now and bushels and barrels of them are coming in every day. He is just obliged to have more hands to move the crop.: The Government is going to give him ° @ couple of expert re: : (DUMP! IT shovelers and a i f Back iw THE lightning calcula COAL SUED tor, but they can’t get here be- eS a 4 fore the first of 1 July, and in the meantime it may ' be necessary for Akins to call on the neighbors for belp. It became clear to the Subtreas- urer B@veral Weeks ago, that he was facing 4 money glut. He was then up to his armpits in

different kinds of dollars. He waded out and started te Washington. He got there just in time. The legislative, ex- ecutive and judicial appropriation bill Was ready to be put through. Tella Congress About It. He ran into Congress and “Hold!’? Congress held. Then Akins told them how it was. “The money is coming to us,” he said, “and it must be handled. Give me more men to handle the money.’ He inti- Mated strongly that i: was either more men or a steam shovel. Congress said times were nard and it Was awfully difficult to get enough money to pay the men to handle the money, but they thought they might give him about two more clerks if that would help him out any. He said he needed more, but with two additional men and by ‘working an after-supper shift he might keep the money from spoiling on his hands. He was allowed the two men. They are to have the privilege of handling about $15,000,000 a year, out of which they may keep $1500 for themselves. Mr. Akins has also asked for another man to count money. The counters he has cannot keep up. Several wagon- loads of assorted money is waiting now te be counted. Wants a Night Watchman. He wants a night watchman, too. It ig almost necessary to have a night watchman, because there is so much money in the Subtreasury that the doots cannot be closed tightly, and un- less there is some- body to keep them away peo- ple will come around and carry away money in coal scuttles, as like as not. Chief Clerk R. P, Johnson says ‘the main trouble is with thesorting. The money is coming in much faster than it can be sorted by the present. force, The result is that “fit” money and ‘unfit’ money, good, bad and tn- different monesx are all mixed to- eeiner in disgusting profusion and con-

cried Mr. In fact, the place is all cluttered up money. On dull days, when only or $300,0@ is received, the clerks manage to get it handled by the time the whistle blows, but when $1,500,000 comes in it is impossible to work tt all up. Sometimes the clerks get discouraged. by have half a notion te give two or fee million to such as will take the trouble to carry it away; but the Gov. ernment is opposed to that. ‘Bt will be hard, at first, on the new = clerks, to have more money than they know what to do with, but they will get used to i.

ANTWERP, May 21.—A railroad acci- of unprecedented horror annals of Belgian train disasters oc- curred at 9:06 this morning at Contich, a station six miles southeast of Antwerp, on the main line. An express from Antwerp to Brussels crashed into /a train loaded with pil- grims on their way to Turnbout, a loca: shrine. This train was standing on a, sid- ing. Several of its cars were telescoped and shatterd. The total dead is placed at fifty and the wounded at over one hundred. Up to 4 o’clock this afternoon 38 dead and 79 wounded had been removed from the wreckage. Rescuers Hurry to Scene. Rescuers from Contich were at once on the scene and the work of succoring the injured and removing the dead was be- gun. Special trains, with doctors, priests and nurses were sent to Contich from Antwerp and Brussels. The accident is supposed to have been due to a misplaced switch. The engineer and the fireman of the express train were killed outright.

PERKINS ENDS HIS TESTIMONY eR aR Commissioner ° Rombauer to Send Transcript to United States Circuit Court.

The taking of testimony in the suit of the Federal Government to dissolve the merger of the two St. Louis bridge companies was concluded Thursday when the Special Commissioner excused Albert T. Perkins, expert of Mayor Wells’ bridge and terminals commission. Perkins has been on the stand inter- inittently for the past five weeks. Judge Rombauer told a gost-Dispatch reporter that he will forward a tran- script of the testimony to the judges of the United States Circuit soon as it is completed by the addition of a few figures in regard to freight rates that Mr. Perkins has promised to furnish. Telis About Coal Rates, Mr. Perkins’ testimony Thursday had reference to the complicated system of coal rates in vogue between St. Louis and near Illinois points. He said the rates between East St. Louis and the Illinois coal mines were not fixed ar- bitrarily by the railroads, but were placed at the lowest figures made by the tariff of the Illinois Coal Commis- sioners. ; Mr. Perkins was questioned Thursday along the same lines he was interro- gated Wednesday afternoon. Attorney Crow tried to make him admit that when the Terminal Association removed the bridgg arbitrary, its component roads’ increased their freight rates to East St. Louis sufficiently to equalize matters from their standpoint. Denies There Was Increase. In explaining his replies to this ques- tion, hurled at him in a hundred dif- ferent forms, Mr. Perkins said Thurs- day: “T said that the railroads did not in- crease their freight rates when the arbitrary was absorbed. There was a slight Increase in freight rates made by some of the Eastern roads in refiguring their rates to St. Louis, but the total in- crease did not amount to 5 per cent of the amount absorbed. “I estimate that nearly $2,900,000 of charges was absorbed in one year by the transportation agencies in East 5t. Louis. Ky that I mean the railroads, bridges, ferries, etc. “The amount additional paid for freight in and out of St. Louis by the increases brought on by the refiguring of the Eastern roads did not amount to 5 per cent of that amount." Arbitrary Profit $2,000,000. On the stand Wednesday afternoon Perkins admitted that the Terminal profited $2,000,000 a year from the bridge arbitrary while it was in full force. Since it has been removed within a radius of 100 miles on all commodities except hay and again, the Terminal still makes a fair profit oa its bridge properties, Per. kins admitted. Perkins also admitted that since the arbitrary was abolished the freight rates have been increased on commodi- ties through St. Louis from the South- West to Eastern points. This a‘tTects a yast amount of shippers. Other large cities in the United States, and Paris and Berlin abroad, have ynion [| bassenger terminals, but separate freight }terminals, Perkins admitted in response to Mr. Crow’s questions; and he also admitted that a commission from Kan-

UN TERMINALS; Court as_ HOUSE PUBLICLY BRANDS LILLY

No Other Member Has Been So Condemned and Allowed to Retain Seat.

By Wire From the Washington Bu- reau of the Pest-Dispatch. tion in accepting the report of the Lil- ley Investigating Committee the House of Representatives is today in the un- precedented position of having in fts membership a man whom it has solemn- ly branded as a falsifier, as acting in bad faith, as violating his obligations as a member of the House and 4s serv- ing as the instrument of a corporation. The reason no resolution for his ex- pulsion is introduced is that the neces- sary two-thirds vote to pass it is not assured. Never before in the history of Con- gress has a member been so arraigned by the House and permitted to retain his seat. Adopted Over Protest. The report of the committee which in- vestigated the submarine charges made by Mr. Lilley was adopted by a vote of 158 to 82, in the face of arguments by Mr. McCall of Massahcusetts that such by the explusion of Mr. Lilley. John Sharp Williams emphasized the Same point, when, declaring Mr. Lilley guilty of treason, he said that the only reason why an expulsion resolution was not introduced was that Mr. Lilley was absent and ill. Excepting Mr. Lilley’s colleagues from Connecticut, no member of the House spoke in his defense. The only reason given for voting against the report was that there had not been given time for its consideration. Postponement Effort Fails. An effort was made to postpone the yote, but it failed.. Had it carried, mem- bers of the House say, not 20 votes out- side of Connecticut would have been cast for Mr. Lilley. Many members, discussing the case today, said that the expulsion of Mr. Lilly was the only thing that could log- ically follow, but all denied any inten- tion to introduce an expulsion resolu- tion in view of the leader’s inability to muster a two-thirds vete for such ac- tion.

What Did the Folks Say © About Van Camp's Milkp® How did your people like the milk that we sdiceiaah you free? What. did the children say? How did it seem to have pure milk once---milk with no germs in it? | Are milk dishes better when made with whole, rich milk? May we be your milkmen nowr | All of you, we hope, got the can of free milk, offered in Sunday’s’ paper. We bought it for you to let you know what pure milk means—what rich milk means. And now you know. It is now for you to decide what sort of milk you are going to have in the future. Do You Want the Cows - Inspected P Do you want milk from dairies of which you know nothing at‘all? From dairies that may be uncleanly? cows that may be tafected-coms that may be tubercular? Will you take such chances on a germ infection? Or will you use Van Camp’s? Our cows are inspected. So are the men who milk them. Our milk is guarded, in every way, from every chance of infection. Our dairies are sanitary. We makea business of cleanliness. Our factories, where the milk is evaporated, are built without wood. They are cleaner than any kitchen. Then every can is sterilized after the can is sealed. Not a germ of any kind can remain in it. Two-thirds the mortality of children is caused by impure milk. A great deal of adult sickness is caused by it. Which will you have in your home ? Do You Want Pure Milk . or Condensed Milk? Condensed milk is half sugar. can’t use it for cooking. Van Camp’s is nothing but milk—rich Holstein milk, with two-thirds the water evaporated. Nothing is altered, nothing added—no sugar, no starch, no rvative. Put back the water that we took out and you have what we started with—the whole rich milk. The Van Me Gio aeente "ep a? You On Van Camp's, the laws of the nation protect you, because the milk enters into interstate commerce. It must contain all of the butter fat, all of the solids, that belong to the richest milk. It must omit all preserv- atives. Else it could not cross a state life. You have no such protection on milkman’s milk. Which do you prefer to use ? Will You Depend on the Milkman or Have a Cow at Home? Van Camp’s means a cow in your kitchen. Rich milk or cream—little or much—as you want it. No waiting for the milkman, no short- age, no waste. You open a can when you want it, and it keeps till you use it up. Please think what that means. How often do you go without a milk dish because you haven't the milk? How often do you let some milk sour because you have too much? We have shown you a way to prevent that—a way to be free of the milkman. Will you continue to have your milk always on tap when wanted ? Will You Pay for Waste Milk, or Pay for What You Use? Van Camp’s comes to you as thick as thick cream. So thick that you add one rt water for coffee. Yet it costs but f what you pay your milkman for cream. ' Add two parts water and you have rich milk. The cost per quart is about what your milkman charges. The cost per week is far less. There is no waste to Van Camp’s. The saving in a year is enormous. is pure, rich, convenient. milk is cheaper than the milk which you used before.

Will You Cook with W 10 Milk, or with Half Mens our milkman depends on the part*« the can. The batter fat rises, and fs solids fall. ! _ Milk from the top of the can lacks the solids. From the middle or bottom, it z lacks the butter fat. — ry In Van Camp’s you get the whole, _ 2 rich milk, just as it comes from the cow. | That’s the sole reason for that de- — licious flavor which Van Camp’s gives to milk dishes. That flavor surprised you, if you tried | that free can in your cooking. You = never knew milk was so good. x But you have not been accustomed to. the whole milk. Such butter fat as ~ your milkman gives you is often skimmed off before the milk goes into cooking. -_ Which milk will you use from now on = in your cooking? Don’t you want all of your milk dishes as good as those which you made with Van Cainp’s? ‘ What Shall the Children Drink? When immigrant babies arrive in N York, they are not fed on raw mil The authorities know that raw milk, li raw meat, is unwholesome. > breed in milk with frightful So those immigrant babies are Van Camp’s Milk. Will you take chances which they z to take? Or shall your children have @ milk which they can drink without 1 thought of germ infection? pil All these questions are for you to amie swer now. Your grocer has Van Camp’ and will be kept supplied with it. Will you use an impure milk pure milk is obtainable, at even @ cost? Will you use any milk bal as good Van Camp’s, when you even lose t by doing so? Will you use a milk that you know or a milk that ee iccaanee Plea as A let the question be decide led by those used the one free can. |

The publication by the Light Trust of he sys- tem upon which its charges are based, with its elaborate and plausible pledges of fairness to al] consumers is of little interest to the public ex- cept in so far as the facts may prove that the pledge of fairnes# has been kept, or may exhibit the breach between the pledge and the perform- ance. The publie is concerned with only two questions—questions vita! to the’ public welfare: Are the marge? to all consumers reasona- ble? Is there unfaty diserimination either ts the classification of consumers or in the applica- tion of the chargea to the members of each class? These questions can only be determined in the light of the: facts. It is necessary to obtain all the facts—the cost of constructing and maintain- ing the plant and equipment of the corporations, the cost of the service and of the different serv- ices as classifica by the management. Sufficient facts have been brought to light to show that since the trust's new schedules have been put into effect the bills of many consumers have been emccinrm 2 increased. Published facts show that there is large disproportion between consumers of different class, and-discrimination between. con- sumers of similar classes. Sufficient evidence of the abuse of the monopo- listic power of the Light Trust has been obtained to warrant an imperative demand on the part of the public for an exhaustive investigation of the trust’s business and of its dealings with the pub- lic. The means of obtaining an investigation of this kind is provided in the State law enabling municipal ‘legislaticn to create a commission for the purpose of investigating the business of pub- lic utility corporations and to regulate their

charges. ‘ In publishing the tacts about the Light Trust and in demending that all the facts be: made: known through an efficient commission, and that ble- rates, the Post-Dispatch is impelled solely by a desire to protect the people of St. Louis from monopoiy oppressions and to assure them reasonable eharges for gas and electricity by the monopolized publie utilities. The’ Post-Dispatch wants the public utility corporation treated fair- ly. It will insist upon a reasonable return to the corporation for its service with- as much vigor as it insists upoh & reasonable charge’ for the public.. Justice can be established between the two only in the light of the facts. “Tt is in ‘the power of the Municipal Assembly to protect the public from oppression . while deal- ing justly with the. public utility corporations. It can obtain all the facts through a commission, or by direct inquiry. It is empowered to. fix reaonsable rates and fair conditions of service.

a» Gr " VS A VICTIM OF THE POLICE HABIT. Probationary Patrolman Henry Milton, who re- signs because his work as a policeman is not hard enough to give him a relish for his meals, has missed the great.opportunity of his life. The trouble, is that Milton pursued his daily task too strictly along lines already established. Judging by the way the handbook makers flour- ish under the very eyes of the St. Loutls. police, this probationary patrolman has been dominated by routine, not seeing his real job at all, What Milton should bave dorie was to have set quest for active service. There is plenty of exer- cise for the police in St. —— if they will only take it. ‘ i That St. Louis girl who turned -a somersault from a second-story window while watching a wedding procession must surely agree now. that ‘it’s love that makes the world go ‘round.”

Any old ice will do, as the ice is deposited under the sitewalk, around coils of pipe, which give a cool and refreshing’ drink at very little. cost.

A Leaf From the Life of the Rich Read Backward for the Post-Dispatch By GERTRUDE BARNUM.

- HE recently discharged “mother’s helper” was showing me the photo- graphs: of her late: proteges in the parlor of her boarding house. “This,” she explained, “is baby Bob in his pony cart. I always let him hold the.reins like that. “Here he is again, with Teddy Bear. “But this one, where he’s stretching out his arms to come to me, I like best of all. It seems as though I could not stand being so lonely!” A filmy mist veiled the wistful gray eyes. “I believe it was only jealousy that made her send me away. But how can a mother expect her baby to love her best when he only sees her an hour a day—and I always with him, feeding him, playing, driving in the pony cart, singing him to sleep, getting up nights when he was wakeful to turn his pilow and bathe his dear little hot hands and feet. Oh, he does love me! I know he loves me!” The sentence ended in a gulp, and it was some time before the little mother-maid could resume: “This is the oldest boy, Courtney. He's 8 and a perfect trump! But they’re spoiling him fast. You should hear him order Fraulein around and snub his music master' No one corrects him. They let nim think he’s the lord of creation, and he’ll grow up an egotistical, domineering. selfish snoh: I was the only one he minded. I could save him if they would just give me authority. He used always to say he was sorry, to me, at prayer time. “This is Alfleen, taken with Simpkins carrying her downstairs for her riding lesson. They al! think it is a funny picture, because she is so fright- ened. Poor little larnbkin! Of course sho is afraid of that skittish pony. She’s only 6. Pet, biessed Aileen!” As a great tear escaped at last and fell spashing upon the reproduction of Aileen’s miniature riding habit, the doorbell rang and a messenger arrived With a letter. How well the “mother’s helper’’ seemed to know the delicate lavender en- velope! How eagerly she sprang to receive it! What were the wonder words which so suddenly transformed the Niobe weeping for her children? We read them joyfully together: “Dear Miss Hartley: I see now that I owe you 41n apology for interfer- ing with your discipline yesterday and terminating so sudenly your many years’ faithful service to me. You must have guessed that a great sorrow has distracted me of late. But sorrow should have made me more, rather than less, thoughtful and gentle. “T have appreciated your Influence in our home, and ever since your de- parture the children have been inconsolable. Baby Bob cried himself to sleep last night, and this morning wanders and wonders like one lost. “Pray forget yesterday's mistake and come back to help me rear my little sons and daughter to be better and happier than their mother. Be to me again what you have truly been heretofore, a mother’s helper’’-— Miss Hartley read the rest on her way upstairs, whither she bounded to pack her satchel. —

REFLECTIONS OF A BACHELOR GIRL By HELEN ROWLAND.

OVE is a delirious spin in an automobile, marriage the accident of which L you are always in danger. v The sentiment a society woman wastes in baby talk to her dog and the money a society man wastes on his automobile would keep half a dozen babies in love and milk. A man’s idea of cutting down expenses is doing without -his wife’s new hat. A woman will go on a starvation diet and have herself skinned alive in order to retain her husband's admiration, but a man considers himself a martyr if he resists a boiled onion. There is no pity on earth so heartfelt as that with which the bachelor and newly-married man regard one another. A man is never really old until his rosy hopes have turned gray and he has begun to get wrinkles in his disposition. The troblesome part of love and everything nice is that it always must end; but then that’s the nice part of matrimony and everything troublesome. Don’t test your husband’s devotion, sweet bride, by asking him if he would die for yuu; just ask him to put up the portieres. The softer a man’s head the louder his socks. It isn’t tying himself to one wom4an that a man dreads when he thinks of marrying; it’s separating himself from all the others. Absence may make the heart grow fonder, but it is more like to make the head grow steadier; there is nothing like total abstinence to cure you of “that dizzy feeling’’ that comes from either love or cocktails. Appealing to a man’s sense of humor when he has just lathered his face for shaving, is about as effective as appealing to a cat's sense of honor when she sees a chance to steal the milk. There is no such thing as a confirmed bachelor in the countries where harems are fashionable. @ay on 57 varieties of fancy dishes— Salve ee > : i é,

THE ROMANCE OF LOVE-MAKING

A Series of True Stories From the Lives of the World’s Greatest Men. BY THORNTON HALL,

(Copyrighted, 1908, b Co., New the Press Publishing ork World.) —— SYNOPSIS OF PRECEDING CHAPTERS. The earlier instalments described the ro- mantic and wnusual beginnings of famous men’s love affairs (the love stories of Wash- ington, Franklin, Garibaldi, Ruskin, etc.); the bistory and philosophy of kissing and certain strange wars whereby wives have been wooed and won. Historic love letters form the theme of ore chapter, and celebrated fictional pro- posals of marriage are cited in another. CHAPTER VII. (Continued. ) How Ladies Fiction IR PITT CRAWLEY’S wooing of S Rebecca Sharp in ‘‘Vanity Fair’ was of the imperative order which sometimes succeeds where milder meth- ods would fail. “TI tell you I want you,” said Sir Pitt. “Will you come back, yes-or no?” “T daren’t. I don’t think it would be right to be alone with you, sir,”’ Becky said, seemingly in great agitation. “IT say again I want you,” Sir Pitt said, thumping the table. ‘I can’t get on without you. ‘All my accounts as got muddled without you. You must come back. Do come back. Dear Becky, do come.’’ “Come as what, sir?’’ Rebecca gasped out. “Come as Lady Crawley, if you like.’’ “Oh, sir,” she said. “I’m married al- ready.”’ The lover, however, who prefers a di- rect, simple, marily proposal could scarcely .o better than copy that of Prof. Emmanuel! to Lucy Snoav: ‘Lucy, take my love,” he said. “One day share my life. Be my dearest, first on earth.’’* In these words there is a good, honest ring which is worth more than reams of rhapsodies and sentiment. Sir Charles Grandison’s proposal, it will be remembered, runs through sev- eral pages of stately and dignified prose, closing thus: “I must flatter myself with the honor of Miss Bryon’s whole heart, as well as with the approbation of all her friends. I cannot be thought at present to deserve it; but it shall be the endeavor of my life to do.” That there is as great a gulf between HOW TO MAKE THE BEST BLOUD PURIFIER AND SPRING TONIC To preserve the health it is abso- lutely essential that a tonic and system builder be used at this time of the year to offset the long strain on the tissues by the sedentary habits of winter. The feeling of drowsiness that is. commonly called “spring fever” is @ proof of a rundown system. The following prescription comes from efninent medical authority, and 1s said to be a wonder worker for enrich- ing the blood and restoring perfect health. One ounce compound syrup Bar- saparilla; one ounce toris compound, these to a half pint of whis- key and use a tad) ul before each meal and at me. This also cures rheumatism. the Propose—in

He had just written a proposal of marriage scene. It was dignified, earnest, elo- quent on the man’s part, tender, gentle, affecting on the part of.the girl. As he dressed for dinner the young novelist wondered why men made such a fuss about a very simple matter. If Doris were dining with the Russells he would certainly ask her to be his wife. Fate was with him. Not only did he sit next to Doris at dinner, but, the family brougham being smaller after dinner than before, his suggestion that he and she should follow on to the Jowitts’ in a hansom was accepted with alacrity by Doris’ mother. Now for it. “D'you feel cold?’ asked Doris. “Not a bit. Why?’ “I thought you were shivering.”’ “Oh, no, thanks.” A bad start. They were on the wrong plane. He must begin by rasing the tone of the conversation.

From the shining Nelad: Go not, happy day Till the maiden ylelds.”’ —Tennyson. F the lover in actual life falls short [ = other respects of his rival in fiction, he is at least his equal in the range and resourcefulness of his methods. “You're none so young as you once were,"’ said a blunt and undiplomatic lover to the lady of his choice; ‘‘you’re not much to look at, but you're a good worker. You'd better take me. I’m willing to have you, and you mightn’t get another’ chance.” What _s_sitthe good lady answered history unfortunate- ly does not say, but one cannot help hoping that the churtish lover was gum- marily dismissed to learn how a lady ought to be won. Even Dr. Johnson's method of woo- ing was open to objection on the score of bluntness. Happily, however, his heart was softer than his tongue. ‘“‘My dear woman,” said the great man to the lady whom he designed to lead to the altar. “I am a WMard-working man, and withal something of a philosopher I am, as you know, very poor. I al- ways have been respectable myself, but I grieve to tell you that one of my uncles was hung.” “I have less money than you,” answered the lady: “but I shall try to be philosophical, too. None of my relatives ever were hung. but I have several who ought to be.” “Providence and philosophy have evi- dently mated us, my good woman,” said the doctor, as he printed a kiss on the brow of his bride-elect. No one who knew Dr. Abernethy could ever picture him in the character of a sentimental! lover, and he certainly did not belie his reputation. He had only once set eyes on Miss Anna Threl- fall when he made up his mind that she was the wife for him. “Dear Madam,” he wrote to her, “I am much too busy a man to have time for love-making. but I should like to marry you, and shall be glad to learn your decision be- fore the end of the week.” Even more unsentimental and prac- tical was the proposal addressed by an old bachelor, sick of housekeeping cares, to a lady whom he cnose to honor. “My very dear lady,” he wrote, “in spite of a large salary, three housekeepers have left me within the year.

i if | Victory Over Philadelphia, Yesterday, Greatly Encourages Team and Manager McAleer.

‘By JAMES CRUSINBERRY. * a 3 B BOSTON, May 21. Y A clean-cut and decisive victory over the Philadelphia Athletics in the final game, the St. Louis Browns forced Connie Mack’s proud ballplayers to accept an even break in the series of four, and today Manager Mc- Aleer and his braves are quartered in Beantown where life is not likely to be go strenuous. So far on the trip, the Browns have won more games than they - . have lost and this despite the fact that they were linked with the husky Phila- delphia team for four days, Mr: McAleer wore an expression of _. gladness this morning and his players ‘are as proud as champions. They all ‘feel fit to dash at the tail-end Boston }team and bag four straight victories > ‘while in the old Puritan city. Then the » Browns will descend on New York in / all their strength. ; Outside of the little affairs with Mr. ‘Waddell, there is nothing to disrupt the ? ~ unity of the Browns and there is not a ‘player on the club who will allow Wad- @ell's little eccentricities to interfere in any way with his devotion to McAleer and the game. ; The boys banded together beautifully in Philadelphia after being licked in the _ first two games. They fought as one “man in the last two and the result was The pres- . ence of Joe Quirk as trainer of the club ; put the final toucu to the team and it is now prepared to fight the world of ~ baseball. A little more time for the old » pitchers and a little more practice for the batters and the Browns will be as _mearly perfect as any club in the Amer- -fean League. Boston Team Improved. Boston is not yet as flerce in the base- ball world as she was three or four seasons back, but everyone here believes . John I. Taylor has a stronger team than “Jast year. However, it will be a disap- * pointment to the Browns if they fafl to bag three victories out of the four games. McAleer is positive that he has one player 6n the team who will die to beat Boston, if dying will assure a vic- tory for the Browns. That player is Hobe Ferris, the scrappy little third gacker, who has been working so des- perately for the Browns all spring. . iebe wants to show Boston in general John’ I. Taylor in particular that he a live one. Hobe has a world of in the old Hub town and they all be out to see him perform. The victory of the Browns over the Athletics yesterday was one of the most @ games to behold that the De have played this year. They the class of champions yesterday. did everything correctly and were in every tight place. It was a @ame of brains as well as skill. On the other hand, the Athletics were unbal- anced at times and made mistakes. If they did start a rally, the Browns set- tied down firmly and soon busted it. Timely hitting and accurate and splen. @id base riinmning scored the three runs for the Browns. Almost perfect de- fensive playing garnished with spec- tacular bits of fielding by the Browns, held the Athletics to their one lone Big Jack Powell was in grand form dl used his head every minute of the Eddie Plank, that great sdouth- Pe twirier of the Athletics, was also brain work, but his left handed fire delivery did not baffle the | of today as it did the Browns ® year ago. Such a thing ag the beating Eddie Plank last sea- . Was a laugh; but the laugh Was re- - Wersed in the first game Eddie bumped tmto the Browns of 1908. For the most part Jack Powell was causing the heavy hitters of the Ath- letics to lift the ball high in the air. Powell is noted for having the power to make the batter hit high ones. He mever tried to strike out batters unless perhaps there a man at third and mo one or only one man out. Jack - nows that he has eight men to help him win the game, and he knows, too, strike out - every man is bound to weaken a bit _ before nine innings are played. So - Powell takes a chance when it is not @angerous to do so, and flings the ball over the plate with the idea of the batter hitting it to one of the field- ers. If that hitter happens to whip one and gets after the next batter. only one run. hits when hits meant runs. the Bronws figured in that one run. Plank Not at His Best? It is a bit doubtful if Eddie Plank wag quite as cunning as last fall. How- ever, it is still early in the season and he showed enough of his old power to assure us that he will have another good year. In the first inning he flashed a bit of brilliancy by fanning both Charley Jones and Stone, after Schweitzer had grounded out. But in the second inning after Willlams had gone out on a ground ball, Bobby Wallace slashed into Plank’s harmony by cutting the ball to the right-field fence for two bases. Then Eddie made a wild pitch and Wallace went to third. Hobe Fer- ris was the slugger to bring him home, a long fly to Ed Collins in right field giving him plenty of time to dash home after the catch. T. Jones closed the inning with a boost to Davis. Philadelphia made its only run in the second also, and the game was tied up until the fifth. Murphy opened the sec- ond for the Athletics with a neat poke to left field for one base. E. Collins bunted one toward first and big Powell gathered it up and banged it into Tom Jones’ mitt, but Tom muffed. Then Coombs sacrificed, Tom Jones coming in and getting the ball and Williams covering first. This put Murphy on third and E. Collins on second. With this situation, Mike Powers slapped one at Williams, who was playing in close, and Murphy was caught between third and home. But Eddie Plank came to the rescue of his team by uncorking a single to right that scored E. Collins. Hartzell then forced Plank at second with a sharp smack to Williams. . The game was a tight affair from then until the fifth, when the Browns whipped in a couple of runs that proved plenty to win thé game. T. Jones start- ed with a rap to short and Tom got to second when Nichols’ throw was wild. Spencer immediately banged a double to the fence in right field and Tom raced home. Powell's sacrifice put Spencer on third and Sweitzr waiked. Charley Jones then bounded a nasty one toward first base. Davy leaped in the air to stop it, but he could do noth- ing but bat it down, and Spencer scored. Stone then fanned and Coombs made a sensational one-handed catch of Williams’ line drive. 8T.

Epecial to the Post-Dispatch. PHILADELPHIA, May 21.—Alfredo De Oro of Cuba and S8t.. Louis won the world’s pool chamionship emblem from Frank Sherman of Washington, D. C., in their three-night match, which fin- ished with gréat excitement last night, De Oro winning by three balls—@0 to 597. De Oro won the first night’s piay, but Sherman did the better work in the second block of points. Last night De Oro had a lead of sixty-five balls when the men went up to the table for the final block of 200 points. Sherman was in good form, while De Oro was playing poorly. Sherman gradually picked up the points he was behind, and, wit) the balls scattered and needing but three to win, Sherman fell down on a comparatively easy shot. At this time De Oro needed nine to win, the score standing 597 to 591 in fa- vor. of Sherman. De Oro settled down and pocketed the ‘nine balls in perfect fashion, giving him the championship emblem and a side wager on the result of the contest. De Oro has been challenged by Benny Allen of Kansas City and will play him in October.. / i. _— wr

For Second Time Dane Will Try to Overthrow Champion Through Sheer Endurance.

Special to the Post-Dispatch. SAN FRANCISCO, May 21.—Joe Gans and Battling Nelson have signed terms for a Fourth of July battle at Colma under the auspices of Promoter Jim Coffroth. The fighters finally reached a com- promise agreement, Gans withdrawing his demand for $6000 side bet, Nelson agreeing to fight at 133 pounds ring- side, stripped. Jack Welch .has been agreed on for referee. The bout will go 4 rounds. Considerable fear that Nelson would make a date with Packey McFarland for some July date is said to have in- duced Gans to come to terms. A great crowd is expected to be in attendance, for it is believed the fight will settle the question of supremacy of the men tested at fair weight. Gans and Nelson met in a 45-round fight at Goldfield, Nev., on Sept. 3, 1906. Gans was declared the winner on a foul in the forty-second round. The de- a cision rendered by Referee George Siler of Chicago caused great discussion all over the country, and even tn England, where the moving pfctures of the fight were shown. Nelson always claimed that he did not foul Gans. A close ex- amination of the films of the pictures of the fight made it appear as though the punch that was declared to be foul landed right on Gans’ belt. Whether it was foul or not was! therefore a question. The men fought for $33,500 and the coming bout between the pair is also bound to draw well. Nelson, by some, is contended to have gone back and is anything but the strong fighter he once was. On the contrary his friends contend that he was never a good short distance fighter, or even a 20-round man, but that in a 46-round or finish fight that he is at his best. If Nelson is still the same ‘‘Durable Dane” that he was when he met Gans at Goldfield the coming battle should be a great con- test. ——

Since that time doubts as to the char- acter of his purchase have arisen in his mind. Mr. Doyle has at various times been analyzed, assayed, dissect- ed and microscopically scrutinized to the end that the peach part of him is entirely absent. ? In fact, even to the naked eye Mr. Doyle’s appearance at League Park yes- terday was positively citric. He con- tributed a splendid physical conforma- tion to the ensemble of the New York club—also a bunch of fatheaded work that would drive a real manager le McGraw to the woods to think it over. In fact, coming right down to plain baseball, Mr. Doyle virtually contributed the one run made during the game, and therefore the victory; to the Car- dinals. McGinnity’s Second Show. McGinnity was in the box for the Giants—good old Iron Man, the only twirler in recent times to pitcu three double headers all by himself in one season and win every game. McGin- nity has been tn poor health this year and yesterday was his second appear- ance in the box. He was far from being at’his best, but he held the Car- dinals safe at that, and but for Doyle the score would have been nothing to nothing in the ninth inning—perhaps 1 to 0 in favor of New York. Mr. Doyle’s. personality began to in- trude in the very opening round and it looked for a time that a score would result. With one down, Charles hit to Doyle, and the latter played imaginary cup-and-ball with the leather for a time suffictent for Charles to get his base. Officially the play was pot credited an error, but the managerial compll- ments he received for his work would hardly bear reprinting. : A base on balis and a scant single threatened to bring home a tally, but McGinnity stiffened up and retired the side. In the second was where Deyle shone. Ludwig smashed a terrific two-bagger down the third-base line and was sacri- ficed to third by Gilbert. Raymond then hit an easy bounder to Doyle, promptly mutilated the play, which the easy retirement of Ludwig plate.

Both are Country Club men. Stickney played phenomenal golf when he registered a 76 score in the qualifying round Saturday, which Was easily the best of the day, and three strokes under Bogey for the course. McKittrick is also playing good golf. He qualified with an 82 score and yes- terday defeated C. A. Piepho of the Triple A Club 3 up and 1 to play. Piepho is a strong golfer, although he lacks good golfing “form.” McKittrick had him 4 up early in the match, but Piepho came back with several fours and McKjttrick was only one up driv- ing for We. 16 hole.

Kenney has been play. ing fine golf and was the man picked by experts to win the tournament. Ken- ney was nervous, extremely nervous and missed a number of short putts, while Stickney did some of the most sensational work on the greens seen at the Glen Echo Ciub tn a long time.

McGraw’s Famous Pitcher Burns Midnight Oil Solving ' Difficult Problems.

Is the gamé of checkers a drawback to the health of a baseball pitcher? Can a man have two games on his mind at the same time and be a star at both of them? Will Christy Mathewson, now here with the Giants, give up baseball for checkers, or checkers for basebail, or will he be able to stick to both games and let neither suffer? Mathewson’s pitching ability is known. Many of the fans who read of his achievements at checkers have an idea that it is a sort of joke and that Matty simply plays the board game for amusement once in a while. But it’s no joke, by any means. of the best checker players in the coun- try and, perhaps, in the world. It is seldom that a night passes that Matty is not confined closely to a checkerboard. Sitting under a strong electric light, he studies out every play and keeps at it for hours at a time. Every morning, as soon as he is through breakfast, he takes up his favorite pas- time, and checker champions from all the little towns flock to the city where Matthewson is to have a try at the game with him. This was true in Pittsburg. The night before Matty was knocked out of the box. by the Pirates he played many games on the checker board and then played many more up to a few hours betore game time. In Cincinnati he. played late one night and the next morning met Logan, the champion of Indiana. They played four games. Each game resulted in a draw and took so long to play that Matty did not have time to get his lunch before starting to the ballpark. He went in to pitch that afternoon—it was Satur- day. That night he had an engage- ment to meet Logan again and settle the checker question. ; Had His Min on Checkers. All during the few minutes that Mat- ty was able to stick to the rubber it is presumed that his mind was on the four draw games and the ones that were to come that night. “Tf I had only moved that king into the corner in the second game this morning, I don’t think Logan could have got a draw. I'll try that tonight and then I'll try that other move, and if he comes down to attack me in the cor- ner I'll have him at the other end of the board. If I get the first game I'll try those other two moves; let’s see how do they go? Oh, yes; I send the king over,” etc., etc. That’s the way Matty’s mind was run- ning along, and the result was that in less than a week he was taken out of the box for the second time. Matty is in better physical condition than he has been for years. He has shown that he is fit to pitch the game of his life, and he has also shown that baseball and checker championships don’t go together. Which will he give up? HECKERS MAY Christy is one. Roseben has seen his best days,’ he, with an. exultant ring in his voice, the Egyptian Hustlers on June 5 the good time of 1:42. at the Missouri ond. to Forshaw, with pete. burg, after the race to Belleville, in the hope of breaking the record for the

ROSEBEN WILL WIN-FROM JACK ATKIN IN MATCH _

At Least So the “Big Train’s” Owner Says Will Happen When They Meet.

Special to the Post-Dispatch. NEW YORK, May 21.—‘“Roseben is now the Roseben of old, and can beat Jack Atkin, weight for age,” was the exultant boast of Davy Johnson this morning, and he meant it. The “big train’’ surely did come into his own at the Belmont Park track yesterday. He showed all of his former great speed and won. the opening race, with 140 pounds up, by six lengths. The return of Roseben to his old form was a surprise to all turfmen except Davy Johnson. The owner of the sprinter had not lost faith in him. The previous defeats this season had merely served to weld more closely the bond of affection between master and horse. Johnson proved his loyalty by betting $800 that his favorite would win. “Some racegoers seem to think that said “but I don’t share in their belief, I have the utmost confidence in him and believe he can beat any country over a six-furlong course. prove that I have faith in him, I’m willing to match him against Jack At- kin for any sum of money for a race at that distance. horse in the To "The only conditions I will stipulate are weight for age ayd the race to take place over the Shéepshead Bay track, By the time the Sheepshead Bay meet- ing begins Roseben will be at his best.

OUTSIDER WINS “GAME FOR C. B.C. Biscome Scores Tying and Win- ning Run in Game Against Carleton College.

Any baseball team that wins from the C. B. C. team, this season will cer. tainly have to travel a bit to beat the combination that the college puts on the field. Cleary and Brown, two of the coHege pitchers, have been playing with the St. Charles team of the Inter- state League. In one game Pete Rati- can of the Trolley League was put in. George Bascome, brother of the coach of the team, William Bascome, umpires the games. Kansas and Nebraska uni- versities both state that they will not continue athletic relations with C. B. C., but the climax was reached yester-

day in the game with Carleton College of Farmington, Mo. With the score standing 2 to 1 in the ninth inning Bascome went to the bat, got his base on balls, went to third on a sacrifice, and scored on the squeeze play, tying the score. In the eleventh inning Bascome, with one out, drove out a two-bagger and scored the winning run when Moore singled. Bascome is undoubtedly an excellent player. The C. B. C. team will play the strong Concordia Seminary nine:this af- ternoon on the college campus. If Bas- come plays the college team will have a good chance to win. — —_@———— Konetchy had hig_red letter day at the bat yesterday, he getting three safeties in four trips to the plate, all of them clean. f —_——_ Sam Strang is lost to the world.

*OMORROW, Friday, May 22d, 1908, great day for us; we shall open our new and handsome clothing, furnishing goods and hat store, Washington avenue at Broadway. We're going to make it the best store of its kind you ever stepped into. ; REAT day for you, too, and for the . - game reason. It’s worth something to have such a clothing store in St. Louis; if you don’t find it out tomorrow, you'll find it out later. You'll realize the advan- tage of a place where you can be sure of best qualities always; where you can always count Roy ’ Ps ~ . wv i.) . ‘| HE new styles for the present season are very smart; the coats have high, broad, athletic shoulders; long, broad lapels; the coats are rather long and form-fitting, with s ome flare to the skirts. The sleeves 3 aie cuffs of varying depths, and the coats have sone, two, three or four uttons. | ‘oh -? é bette ot .? * e el * ¥ % “A At p > « . - .

Y OULL set better clothes in this store for $18, $20 and $25 than you will believe possible until you see them. . We have other makes cheaper—$12.50 and $15; good clothes for the money; not Hart Schaff- ner & Marx. you will find our furnishing department an eye-opener. Manhattan shirts, so well known in St. Louis will be a leader with us, a wonder- ful array of fine patterns in all the new colorings. ‘These shirts are made to wear; they fit like custom-made shirts; and cost much less—$1.50 to $3.50. UR neckwear also will be a new attraction ; we have gathered together the most remarkable showing of fine goods ever seenhere. A spe- cialty will be a great line of wide-end Four-in-Hands at 55c ; great stuff. s am mee a Thenw, .-J Sty Fi vs e “Ta r ; . “ 4 = weet a s ’ 1H ) NY \ , Wi \ th mn ae \\\\ ith} MA “4 a) ' \ RA » > wh srgeis i s\ \ j HET AAAS fas en en \ 4 ee 4 - \ LEH ‘
