After taking the poison, Fletcher took a Bible and lay upon a couch reading it until he became ill and told his wife what he had done. She sent for dectors and when they arrived the preacher was unconscious. The Bible had slipped from his hands, but between the leaves was a slip of paper upon which was written “Shall I die for their sins?” There were no marks to indicate what he had been reading, but it is believed he was searching for a pas. sage of scripture to justify his act, Caused Trouble in Nebraska.

BADS, * A Reporter for the Post-Dispatch. The interview With M. L. dfolman, former Water Comissioner, publisied in Thursday's nerietinste wantege Was abso: jutely, aecurate. I obtained that int erview from Mr. Ho!man. I went to his office to find out wheihe: ne had been employed by the Union Electrie Light and Power Co. to com- pare its November rate schedule with the rates in effect prior to that time. When I called on Mr. Holman, whom I have interviewed many times, he was alone in his pr:vate office. We discussed general subjects for a few minutes. Mr. Helman said that tie was going to New York for some commit- tee conferencés regarding the meeting of the American Society of Eng-fieers, and that from New York he was g6ing to Denver to try to finish the appraise- ment of the Denver Waterworks, Discussed His Busiucss. From Denver, he said, he was going direct to Detroit to preside at the cun- vention of engineers, and then he was going to try to find a quiet piace for a Week’s rest. He said he had _ been working very hard on diffigult subjects and had been forced by tie pressure of his business to decline several good en- garcements. After some {further asked Mr. Holman: “Have you entered the competition to win any of the Union Electric Light and Power Co.’s $100 prizes by devising a plan in which to interest the public in its new rate schedule?’’ M.:. Holman then told me,’ without further solicitation, that “Ne had been employed by the Union Electric Light “#@nd Power Co. to chart its new ‘rates. '* He satd he had drawn a series of big Charts to illustrate the new scheme of rates. He described the charts as being almost a8 large as the top of his desk, and said he had forwarded them to the Union Blictrie Light and Power Co. He said he did not know whether it was the intention of the company to make the charts public. In concluding his: comments on _ the charts, Mr. Holman Faid, voluntarily: “Niy. conc! sion, . after comparing notes, is thu: they are theoretically lower than they ever were.” Phrase Made Deep Impression. Mr. Holman’s statement, freely made, that the rates wefe ‘theoretically low- ér,”’ made a deep impféSsion upon my mind. It occurred to me that here was the nub of this whole question. The lighting coémpany has’ beefi contend- ing that its rates are lower. The con- gsumers, who are paying the bills, say they are finding that they are payiig!], more for electricity than they were under old contracts. I was curious to know whether Mr. Holman had arrived at his conclusions from the study of the prifited sched- ules, or had gone into the practical end of the question by taking up the con- sumers’ bills and analyzing them. With Mr. Holman’s word's ‘theoretically low- er’ fixed in my mind I then. asked him: ‘“Tilave you made any comparison of cohsumers’ biis to determifie whether the rates are actually lower?” “No; I do not know how the will work out In thé 4yills.”’ The two important facts brought out in thé interview were that Mr. Hol- man’s conclusions Were theoretical, and that he fiad-not gone into the practical! phase of the question at issue between the conswmers and thé Union Electric Light and Power Co. Did Not Say “Substantially.” Mr. Holman did not use the words “substantially lower’ during the inter- view. I was sitting "te 6 chair a few fest from his desk, paying particular atten- tion to what he said. After he had made these atatemesits I did not ask him any more questions on this subject. He’ remarked that he had done some éther work, of an engincer- ing nature, for the Union Blectric Light and Power Co., ®t he added that. he did not think the public would be inter- ested in that. After droppimag the subject of electric- al rates, Mr. Holman then discussed for a few minutes the cifficulty of the gen- ®ral rate problem. He said he had been jengaged for several months in trying to work out a satisfactory water rate schedule for the city of Denver. He found the problem a very difficult one, he sal@, as the Denver authorities } Wanted a rate to cover a period of 20 years. He said it was almost {mpossi- ble, under these conditions, to prepare a schedule of water rates that would be | entirely satisfactory to the public. Bringing the interview to a close, I thanked Mr. Holman for the informa- tion he had given me, and expressed the wish that he would thoroughly enjoy his vacation when he got around to it.

ANSWERS VAR _—— © ———— A diversity of opinion as to the worth of the services of an attorney was in evidence in Judge Shield'’s court Fri- fay, as shown by opinions of a nuth- ber of attorneys on the motion of Wal- ter. H. Saunders for allowance of fees. Saunders was attorney for Marhilde Bossé and othérs in a suit against the National Bond Co. There is on deposit in the.State Treas- ury $100,000, out of which the attorney's and other fees must be allowed. On the Witnéss stand Saunders said the case had run along about two years, during which time he was always doing something or other in his client's inter- est. He wag asked ty B. F. Schnurmacher, for the State, what he considered his servicés worth and replied he dia not know, but wotld abide by the opinion] of other attorneys. Sudge Hen y S&S. Priest was called th the stand a said he tho the s#erv- lees performed by Saunders were worth ‘Qt least $40,000. 10,000. $7800 wold be about right. distinctly 86 .aat the reader could grasp Lee ea the case. Judge Frankl Ferries said he betiéved | Judge Menty W. Bond couldn't see any } ~ willing to take $5000 he would reverse His opinion. “No,” replied Mr. Lee. “If he asked only $6000 for doing what he did I should take him for a very modest man.” Jamés C. Jénhés, who said he was au- thorized to practice law and did so, said that he would put the proper fee at $10,000. “Tf you were in Mr. Saunders’ piace, would you take less?’ he was asked. “I might take $9500,’ he replied. ° Col. Blodgetts’ Figure $8000. Lee W. Hagerman, the master in the case, also made a motion for his al- lowance as such. Col. Wells H. Blodgett was asked what he thought the master’s services were worth and réplied $6000 would be fair. Sohn F. Green thought $5500 would be about right,’ and Morton Jourdan con- sidered no less~than $7500 the proper thing.

But even if he is a young man he doesn’t know how to love at all. It takes a man of mature years to know the real art of loving, and I would rather be with you any time than tite handsomest young man I ever set eyes on. ! ‘Your kisses are the sweetest kisses that ever a woman received.

One of the letters from the Clinton married woman reads, in part: “My Dear Colonel—I was surprised when you addressed me yesterday as I was noticing the various styles in fur coats in, Coale’s window. After I got home I ‘thought it would be foolish to be angry with you, although I did not exactly. understand the remark you madé about that $60 fur coat I admired. If you meant by that remark that you might be disposed to make me a pres- ent of it, why, I would be foolish to decline. “Be careful to burn this letter, and do not by any means let my husband know about this. If you send me the coat I will be sure to thank you per- Bonally.”’ Deceived Her Husband. The following indicates that the Col- onél sent the coat: “My Darling—The coat has come and, oh, what a beauty it is As I run my fingers through the soft fur I wonder if it isn’t the beginning of something terrible.

AN ACTIVE REFORMER

Wrote Letters Referring io Scriptures to Member of His Choir.

Special to the Post-Dispatch. LEAVENWORTH, Kan., May 21.—The Rev. Robert Arthur Elwood, pastor of the First Presbyterian Church of this ‘city, tendered his resignation to the eld- ers of the church this morning. The resignation was accepted at a special meeting of the elders this afternoon and it is not expected that the Rey. Mr. El- wood will occupy the pulpit of the church again. Mr. Elwood has been very prominent in the movement to close the ‘‘joints’’ ‘in Leavenworth and has been an ardent leader in reform movements. Wrote to Young Lady. The resignation of Mr. Elwood is said to be due to his writing letters to a young lady member of the church choir. Within the last year Mr. Elwood took personal charge of the music and man- agement of the choir and this brought him into close contact with the mem- bers. The letterts to the young lady are said to have referred to passages of scrip- ture and to have been of a moderately affectionate nature. Mr. Elwood is a married man with a wife and two children. The mother of the girl found the let- ters and was displeased with them. She held the letters several months and finally showed them to members of the Board of Elders. After reading them the Elders notified Mr. Elwood that his usefuiness here was at an end and a meeting was set for 3 o'clock p. m. to consider his resignation.

The suit against the Senator ended dramatically. The taking of testimony had ended. Justice O’Gorman asked Miss Wood a few questions, then said: “The Court can not credit the plain- tiff’s evidence as to the alleged marriage and the testimony in the case impresses the Court with the belief that it is a most wicked design to support a ficti- tious claim by forgery and perjury. “The Court can not believe from the evidence that there ever was a mar- riage. On the merits of the case every issue has resulted in the Court’s im- pression that the plaintiff has committed willful perjury in this case. “Reing impressed with the plaintiff's guilt of perjury, the Court commits her to the City Prison, unless she furnishes bail in $5000.’’ DETECTIVE’S FATHER AND MOTHER AT DEATH'S DOOR “Darby” O’Brien Asks Leave of Absence to Attend His Parents. Detective M. J. (Darby) O’Brien had the sympathy of the entire staff of Chief Smith Friday morning when he asked to be excused from duty, saying his mother and father are both at the point of death. The mother, Mrs. Anna O’Brien, is at St. Mary’s Infirmary, where physicians have twice given her up. James O’Brien, the father, is at the City Hospital, -suffering from injuries sustained in a fall from the porch of his home on the second floor at 1217 South Compton avenue. His life has also been despaired of, owing to his age. The cou- ple are both past three score and ten. While attending his sick wife Mr. O’Brien became exhausted from want of sleep. He went out to the porch Wednesday night to get fresh air. He fell asléep in a chair and rolled from it to the ground, more than twenty feet below. He was picked up unconscious and taken to the City Hospital. In order to allay the fears of the sick wife, members of the family invented different excuses for the absence of Mr. O’Brien and finally the physicians ad- vised that she be taken to St. Mary’s. Their only hope of prolonging her life lies in their abilitv to keep the news of her husband’s condition from her.

Cat Made Monkeys Behave. From the New York World. Big Tom, the ship’s cat, saved the Atlas liner Venetia from a pest of mon- keys, according to the narrative of Capt. Huger, who arrived yesterday from Cen- tral American and West Indian ports. At Santa Marta, Columbia, Dan Jose Velasquez, a gold prospector, came aboard with 30 blond monkeys. On the pleading of Don Jose the Captain con- sented to allow the monkeys out of their cages one day. They jumped and climbed everywhere. They pulled the tail feath- jers from the skipper’s parrot, broke cups in the galley, and, posting them- selves on skids, pulled off sailors’ caps and then grinned as the men swore and threatened to knock off their heads. Capt. Huger ordered Don Jose to catch his monkeys, but he could not. A sailor

GIRL TR NW STEA , % . a SUITS A HID

Satisfied With Lark After a Night in Wet Coal Car.

It seemed a great lark to Mrs. Ella Burton Perkeiser, 20 years old, and Anna Shea, 16, to don men’s clothes and start in an empty coal car, from Mitchell, Ind., to East St. Louls. But a rainy night on the road matertally altered ‘their point of view, and when they were taken, bedraggled, grimy and covered with cinders, to the police station in East St. Louis Friday, they were as un- comfortable a pair of young women as could be found. Miss Shea, plump and blonde, bore her hardships with. a senblance of cheerfulness, while Mrs. Perkeiser, stim and brunette, wept copiously. Evan Perkeiser, Mrs. Perkeiger’s hus- band, has a suit for divorce pending against her, and this was one reason, she said, for wanting to go to Fast St. Louis. Miss Shea, her chum, decided to ac- company her, and they appealed to E. C. Glover, who married Mrs. Perkeiser’s sister. He had a position in view in East St. Louis, and his wife gave her consent for him to accompany the young women. Had Just $12. Between them, the three mustered just $12. The railroad fare from Mitchell is $6.05, and the young women thought it would be fun to save their money and “beat” their way on a freight train. They donned suits of Glover's clothes and left Mitchell at 8:30 Thursday night. Mrs. Perkeiser had expressed a trunk containing her clothes and Miss Shea’s, before starting out. It rained nearly all night, and the young wom- en were heartily sorry, before they had gone far that they had undertak- en the trip. They crouched in a cor- ner of the open car, pelted with chil- ly rain. Glover got off at a station on the way and bought coffee and rolig for them, Crowd Is Attracted. On arriving at East St. Louis, the young women went to the Relay De- pot to get Mrs. Perkeiser’s trunk. In daylight the most careless eye could penetrate their. disguise and a crowd gathered about them. Patrol- man Pabst arrested them. When Chief of Police Purdy heard the story he agreed to furnish the young women with enough money to return Thursday afternoon to Mitchell On a passenger train, to which they joyfully assented.

T0 BE INSPECTED NDLEY OLDS Assistant Prosecuting Attorney Contends That State Offi- cer’s Ruling Is Wrong.

State Factory Inspector Sikes has re- ceived from Attorney-General Hadley and his assistant, John Kennish, opin- ions as to the legality of collecting in- spection fees in factories in which only the proprietor works or is found work- ing. The request for a decision on the point grew out of the case of Herman Adolph, a tailor at 3845 Finney avenue, who, on March 18 last, refused to pay the in- spection fee of 50 cents on the ground that he was not running a factory. The State Factory Inspector asked Assistant Prosecuting Attorney Falken- hainer to ‘issue a warrant against Adolph for not complying with the law. This he refused to do on the ground that the law did not apply to a factory in which only one person was found at work and on his personal opinion that it was not right to inspect such a fac- tory ‘Sikes Says Small Places Worst. Following this small bakeries other factories all over the State fused to pay inspection fees. In his letter to Mr. Hadley, the State Factory Inspector wrote: ‘‘The inspec- tors find the smaller places the filthiest, and the child-labor law most frequently violated, and danger of peonage by the foreign element and child-labor abuses if not inspected. If Mr. Falkenhainer’s opinion prevails it will nullify the work of my department, as In most factories, bakeshops, tenement shops, etc., where only a few persons are working, they may be concealed during the visits of the inspectors and the law invaded.” Hadley’s Opinion Rejected. Attorney-General Hadley, in his re- ply, says: “The act of 1907 is clearly broad enough to include the case of a shop or factory with only one employe, or where the proprietor alone labors therein.’ Friday morning State Factory Inspec- tor Sikes sent copies of these decisions to Assistant Prosecuting Attorney I*al- kenhainer, again requesting that a war- rant be issued against Herman Adolph. The request was refused by Mr. I*al- kenhainer on the ground that he did not agree with the Attorney- -Gereral and his assistant, but that he would go over the acts of the Legislature again with Pros- ecuting Attorney Moss and decide the matter for himself. and re-

Belleville Man’s Heart Won by the Cuisine and Smiles of Miss Moore.

Tt is a good thing to be a good cook. Take the case of Miss Maude Moore of Belleville, for instance. She is a very good cook. She has won the heart of Thomas L. Blanning. Cooked her way to it, he says. Miss Moore has been conduc8ing a boarding house at 2105 West Main street. She has given her personal at- tention to the preparation of flapjacks for breakfast and the other things for the other meals. The fame of the fare at her board- ing house spread far and wide. When Mr. Blanning came to Belle- ville from Bridgeton, N. J., he heard about the flapjacks and other things at Miss Moore’s boarding house and sat at her table thrice daily. He became so attached to Miss Moore’s cooking that it seemed to him he could not live without it. And her smile Mag like predigested breakfast food to m There was only one thing that marred his joy. She also cooked for the otner boarders and smiled on them, too. He wanted to monopolize both the cooking and the smiles. He asked her if she would not cook just for him, and all the time. She said allrodnd cookin suited her well, but she wouldn’t min one specialist, if he really wished So the other boarders were notified to hunt for another boarding house. A marriage license was obtained Thurs- day. They will be married Saturday, and she will cook flapjacks and other cory for him until death does them part.

Bad Breath From —— is Far Worse Than From Onions

Best Way to Remedy Trouble:Is by Curing —Indigestion’s Misery With Mi-o-na Som } ach Tablets. All of us suffer from bad breath— sometimes our own, but oftener that of our friends. Nine-tenths of this bad breath comes from some stomach trouble, and cannot be overcome by breath perfumes or any other palliative measures. If you occasionally have a _ bad breath; if there is heart-burn, flatul- ence and acid gulpings of undigested food; if the’stomach burns or smarts; if there is sleeplessness, nervousness, headaches or any other of the many symptoms of indigestion, use Mi-o-nd stomach tablets and get well. Mi-o-na is not a mere digestive nor a physic, but a tonic remedy that strengthens the muscles of the stomach and bowels so that the flow of gastric juices is increased, and the food is di-

\George Le as Unnerved After Fortune Teller Pre- - dicted Tragedy.

DRINKS CARBOLIC ACID

Aunt Says He Had Been Brooding Over Mother’s Financial Condition.

A fortune teller’s prophesy s0 un- nerved George Le Beau, 27 years old, that he ended his life rather than await the predicted death. This is the opinion . Of Mrs, Annie Creeley or 22% Franklin avenue, his aunt. Mrs. Creeley and a husband pre- vented Le Beau from killing himself _ Wednesday, and had him taken to the City Hospital for observation. He was released early Thursday, and went to the home of his mother, Mrs. Marie Aubuschon, 6521 Hamburg avenue. swallowed carbolic acid Thursday after- noon in a saloon nearby, and died on a vacant lot outside. Mrs. Creeley told a Post-Dispatch reporter Friday that George had told her he had consulted a fortune tell- er and that she had said he weuld:be ill for 10 days, a burden on his mother’s hands, and would die within three months. Mrs. Creeley said Le Beau told her he would rather kill himself than undergo lingering illness. After he was prevent- ed from ending his life he repeated to her, She says, that, he would forestall

the prediction. She did not learn the fortune teller’s name. Mind Believed Unbalanced. “Hie thoyght he had lung no indication of it that I could see. He worried, too, about his mother’s finan- cial condition. I think his mind was unbalanced.” The note found in Le Beau's pocket after he died is regarded by his aunt as supporting her belief that worry had unbalanced his mind. It was addressed to his mother and to wec and Walter Aubuschon and Joe Lorain, and read: “Let these people be notified in rota- tion. I am taking my life because I could not Fight gor mother’s wrongs. I have ‘tried be good, but have not ot My mother's trou- bles are on my mind. I-bave lots of friends, but t at is not the question.

Theresa Robbe Starves Herself to Increase Saviftgs Par- ents Started.

NEVER WORE A _ HAT Hospital Patient Hunted Shoes in Alleys, Always Bear- ing Her Treasure.

For years Theresa Robbe traversed the streets of St. Louis, begging at back doors, with thousands of dollars wrapped in a rag in an old basket that swung from her arm. She was ragged and dirty, thin and miserable looking, and no one suspected that she had a fortune in bank notes and gold in the old baskei. That was Giscovered when her neighpors heard her screaming in her home early Thurs- day, and she told them that thieves had tried to rob her. the basket in a Way that made them wish to see into it. She sat with the basket on her lap and her arins around it, When the policeman sought to take it she hugged the precious thing to her breast. Starves Herself for Years. For years and years she had starved herself and denied herself, and had suf- fered for the necessities of life to save the $6607 that was in the basket, and it was dear to her, Her father and mother had denied themselves the comforts of life, too, and had died in the appearances of dir- est poverty that they might hand down to this daughter the thousands of: dol- lars they had saved. She inhérited their money and their miserly habits, too. Her father was a street sweeper for the city. His wages were $1.50 a day. He saved enough to buy a lot at 2211 South hleventh street and to build a two-story brick house on it. The neigh- bors say that the Robbes.did not have even coffee in their house in those days. They never ate meat. They lived principally on bread. The first bath Miss Robbe had in all her 30 years was given to her Thursday at the City Hospital. And. then ghe got three baths. She said to. her at- tendants that she never . When one of her neighbors ton of coal she would wait until it had been carried from. the street, and then she would go out and sweep up the little pieces that were left. But she always carried on her arm the old basket with the $5000 wrapped, in the dirty rag. In her room were. boxes of horseshoes and screws and naijs that she had picked up. She would accumulate a lot of this junk and then sell it. Begged Soap Some Days. Some days she begr-d only soap. - ‘ .e would go to a door and say that she was a poor washerwoman, who had work if she only had a bar of soap. She would come home with her basket full of soap on one arm, and the basket in which the $5000 was hidden on the other. Policemen found hundreds of cakes of soap piled up in corners of her home. At times the woman would beg only tea. Her story then was that she was sick and needed a ‘‘drawin’’’ of tea. Almost every housewife would give it to her, wrapped in a piecé of paper. The police found hundreds of these little packets. She never visited the neighbors or talked with them and they kept aloof from her. The police do not believe that rob- berg were in her house. . “She just imagined it,” said Sergt. Lanz. But there is a long black-and- blue bruise on her forehead and many Scratches on her face. The neighbors heard her screaming for help at 3 e’cleck in the mornin No one went near her, At 6 o’clocl the grocer, who had been told of her cries in the night, notified the poliee and Policeman John Kucera went to her house and found her walking about, with the basket clutched to her as she mumbled to herself, He took her to the City Hospital in an ambulance. There two attendants held her in a chair and 4nother wrenched the basket from her grasp. There was a top layer of packages of different things, two or? three eakes of soap, the Seat | of a loaf of bread, old rags and several sample packages es washing powder, all wrapped in p And then the attendants came td. the Package of bank bills, it was wrapped in a dirty rag and several pieces of pa sok attendants stared wen they saw the money.

Day .testified at the trial that Mrs. Turner had said to him, previous to his marriage to her daughter, that he must have no children. “I don’t want to be a grandmother, rs Day testified she told him, ‘‘and if you have a child, I will not own it.’’ “Mrs. Turner told me later that I had made a promise not to have any chil- dren,”” said Day, ‘“‘and that I had not kept my promise.’’ Day said that, when his wife left him, he had expectations of becoming a father for the second time. This hope was not fulfilled.

NEW YORK, May 22.—The room of “Mr. Harrison’ in Mills Hotel No. 3 at Thirty-seventh street and Seventh Avenue is vacant, and a well-knit, clear- -ey ed Englishman of 38 is on the sea bound for London to meet his law- yers and to claim his title of Sir Gen- ille Cave-Browne-Cave, his old Nor- man castle in Leicester, his 6000 acres, and his right to apoint a vicar for his domain and his tenants. The Norman castle has accommoda- tions for sixty guests and a stable that quarters forty horses, and the estate has an income of $15,000 a year, “Mr. Harrison made the jump from Bald Knob, Colorado, to New York, and spent the last ten days here.

There was ahead of him in line for the title and the estate a brother, Geoffrey Lisle, but he died in 1880.

On his arrival in London he was met by a score or mors sf the nobility who wanted to welcome him back from the Wild West of America and who found that their reception was ill-timed and wrongly placed. The real “Cowboy Baronet” has been here in New ork for the last ten days, dining every day with Mr. Bullock and sleeping in a room in Mills Hotel No. 3. Doesn’t Like Hotels. “My dear boy,” said Sir Genille to an acquaintance when he was asked why he took a 7 by 4 apartment in the Mills Hotel, ‘‘you see, I’m a cowboy for just a few more days. I have been making my living by breaking wild horses and roping cattle. The money I have has been earned in your own Western way, and, besides, the soft life of your big hotels does not appeal to me. I have been sleeping under the heavens, on the ground, up with the break of day, and astride my horse Blue Dog. I’m the cham- pion steer roper ot the West, with only one man ahead of me, the ‘cham- pion of the world, and Blue Dog did more to make the record than I did.” The ‘‘Cowboy Baronet” sighed. “But Blue Dog is in good hands, and I can’t tell when the call of the West will exert itself on me again.’’ Sir Genlille wore a faded red necktie. The band of it kept crawhng up on his neck, and he kept shoving it down with are exclamationus of hate for the thing. “Lord! Lord!” he exclaimed. “We don’t use neckties in the West, but the life on the plains has 4 altogether delightful to me. Wen I first Jearned of it [ was in London.

I showed my employer that I could, but my first year was full of trouble. I got all of the outlaw horses that could be brought to our ranch, and I rode and broke them. In those days they used to pay me $10 each for every wild horse I broke in. It was fun and lots of money. “The cowboys in the West laughed at me at first and played all sorts of tricks on me us a green Englishman, but they soon found out that I could ride with the best of them.

No more root beer or anything that seunds like beer—no more choco- late fizzes—or anything that fizzes—no ginger ale, unless the ale is left out, and no mint drinks, for fear they'll look like juleps—none of these things has a woman dared ask for at a soda feuntain since Mr. Mulvihill pronounced against them. Now, there is no novelty or variety in ice-cream sundaes, so what is left for our cheer and refreshment except buttermilk? And it seems to be filling a large void. One soda fountain on Olive street sells frem twenty to thirty gallons every day, and restaurants and tearooms tes- tify to its marveious vogue. ’ Scientist Says So. Some time ago, when an eminent Rus- sian bacteriologist, successor to Pasteur, stated his belief that the infirmities of old age may be postponed by the free use of sour milk, his statement was widely published and there was an im- mediate demand for the lacteal fiuld. But that isn’t the reason it has taken such a hold on feminine patrons of the ice cream saloons. They drink it because they like it— because it is a satisfying habit and it has become the fad. Buttermilk had always been associat- ed in my mind with wayside farm- houses and long, dusty drives on coun- try roads, not with soda fountains, un- til yesterday, when the heat drove me te an old haunt in search of a coo! drink. Order Anticipated. I had net had time to give an order befere a glass of buttermilk was thrust under my nose. Looking up, I was struck with the change which had come over the countenance of my old friend, ste who has done much to relieve eee ttre = an eneatte

my thirst in other warm seasons. He looked careworn and bitter and it was he who had thrown the glass at me. “Why, don't you remember me, Red- dy?’’ I said, “What's come over you? The long dry spell doesm’t seem to have sweetened your disposition.”’ Soured His Disposition. “Well, buttermilk is enough to make anybody sour. You are the first lady that’s come in here today that hasn't ordered buttermilk. When I seen your merry widder, I didn't look no farther, but just began to pour one more butter- milk. But you don’t like ice cream and we haven't got anything else you do like,’”’ I held tight to the buttermilk, for it struck me that was just what I wanted. “Il tells the boss I don’t see where the profit comes in. I spends half my time a-washin’ greasy glasses, and the other half up on the eighth floor churn- ing. Expects Cows Next. they ain't moved a dairy farm in here yet, but I guess they'll have to.

_ ee eee HAS PHYSICIAN RIGHT TO HASTEN DEATH BY OPIATE?

St. Louisans Disagree on Ethics of Case Which Caused New Yord Medico-Legal to Denounce Practitioners.

St. Louls men and women disagree on the question whether pkysicians attend- ing Willlam H. Marsh, a wealthy New York inventor who was dying of hydro- phobia, were justifiable in administering opiates to relieve his suffering in his last hours. That the anesthetics hastened death jis the conclusion of the New York Medico- Legal Society, which stopped Marsh’s burial and preferred a formal charge against his physicians, according to a press dispatch to the Post-Di spatch. It Was agreed by several physicians after Marsh was stricken that he could hot long survive. The dilemma presented by the Marsh case js like that famous example of- fered by Ingersoll, when he said that a man on a burning ship, facing certain death, was. justified in jumping from it and choosing the easier way out of the world. Adniinistering an anesthetic, it is agreed, almost invariably hastens death, when the patient is * a dying condition. Surgeon's Truce laid: Dr. C. H. Hughes. specialist in nerv- Ous diseases, does not bélieve in giving anesthetics in such cases as Marsh’s. “Whon Napoleon wanted Baron Lar- rey, his chief surgeon. to give euthanas!s to wounded soldiers,"’ Dr. Hughes said, “Baron Larrey replied that the function of the physician is to save and prolong life, not to destroy or shorten it. That must always be the right view. To ease : Same crisp, brown flakes every morning— Post Gar) Toasties

@ patient’s pain at the cost of a single hour of life is contrary to all the prin- ciples of the medical profession, which lives to prolong 'ife.”’ Charles P. Johnson, lawyer, sald: “The physicians who relieved Marsh's pain had no intention of committing a wrong, and they cannot be held civilly Hable. I believe in doing all that is possible to alleviate suffering under such circumstances.”’ Mrs. Philip N. Moore, clubwoman and charity worker, said: “That is a thing which must be de- cided by the physician, in conjunction with the immediate relatives and the patient. Every case is individual, and must be decided.alone. Even if the anesthetic hastens death, as it often must, there are circumstances under which administering it would be justt- flable.’’ Dr. J. William Williamson, a phy- sician, declared himself strongly against such a practice. “As a matter of fact, the person dying of hydrophobia does not suffer so in- tensely as is usually supposed,” Dr. Williamson said. ‘The pain is deadened by the poison. I remember attending a boy who asked for ice cream between convulsions when dying of hydrophobia. I sent for it and let him have it. “An anesthetic can't prolong life. A)}- most invariably it hastens death. It does no good, and a physician has no more right to commit murder that way than any other.’’ Rests With Physician. Mrs. T. Griswold Comstock, club- woman, said: It is the thing to do if the physician thinks best. It seems the merciful way, since it makes the passing easier. But it is « thing for the physician to deciae always. Chief of Detectives Smith doesn’t believe in opiates. “The practice « se Mes eo pain in that way is bad," “if the pa- tient lives, he is skely to become a drug fiend—it has been my observa. tion that most drug slaves start in his disease is fata),

DOCTOR SURE tit HAS HYDROPROBIA: STILL AT WORK —_——_-—_@—_——- NEW YORK, May 22.—Notwithstand- ing the fact that he believes firmty that he inoculated himself with hydrophobia germs while assisting in the autopsy on the body of W. H. Marsh, the Brook- lyn victim of the disease, Dr. Ira Van Giesen of the City Health Department was about his work today, exhibiting no concern over his condition. “IT am’ sure I was inoculated,”’ he said today, “but the only thing to do is to take treatment and await the outcome. I am not alarmed. I hardly believe 1 am going to be among the one per cent of those who die from the disease after taking the Pasteur treatment.” The doctor's only handicap is the frightful burns on his arm, where the scalpel he was using in the autopsy scratched him. He _ cauterized his wound with carbolic and nitric acid and the flesh is eaten away in piaces, The remaining victims. of tne Marsh family pet dog, Ramsey Marsh, son of the dead man, and Miss Thompson, his stenographer, are feeling no ill effects of the Pasteur treatment and all are confident of escaping the disease. es EE ee ee mn

} The Democratic leaders and organs in the State are shouting over the apparent harmony All the factions in the party are represented in the State delegation sent to Denver. From the stand- point of the party organization to bring together in one delegation Stone and Reed, opponents of reform, with Folk, the reform leader, and Fran- cis, the leader of the Gold Democratic wing, with the ardent supporters of Bryanism is an achieve- ment which on its face points to a burying of hatchets and a settlement of differences. But partisan harmony does not always spell political victory. That depends upon the signifi- cance of the harmony and what the faction§ have come together for. In this -day of intelligent and independent voting the mere agreement of party leaders to co-operate for mutual personal ad- vaniage counts for little. Harmony for spoils regardless of principles or policies is not a slogan t6 win by. If the harmony accomplished at the Democratic convention means compromise with vicious ele- ments or bad policies, it will not help, but hurt, the party. If it means that the men who have discredited the,party by betraying public to pri- vate interests and by using the party power to corporate greed are to be placed it will mean the destruction of party. If sound Democratic to_ be sacrificed to populistic and social- promote in . control, the is doctrine vain. If the reforms that have been accomplished in the State by the Folk reform movement are to be nullified and the reform policies abandoned to placate the boodle bosses and the tools of cor- porations, Missouri will be lost to the Democracy. In this State, as in the nation, the Democratic If it forsakes its principles, if it abandons the policies that make for the ‘public welfare, if it thrusts aside leaders who rep- resent sound principles and sound, progressive policies to satisfy its rascals or to gather in polit- ical hoboes its opportunity will be lost.

be headed off by mere man. We do not refer to their free and equal suffrage with men on all issues. They have gone far past the mark of ad- vancement achieved ih the ballot and are lording it over the cowering male inhabitants with the female posse comitatus and female vigilance com- mittecs. Civilization pauses aghast, divided twixt fear and admiration, at the work of the lady vigilantes who yanked a wife beater out of bed the other night, snubbed him to a post with riatas, gave him 20 lashes on the bare back, untied him, ducked him in a barrel of water, tarred and feathered him and rode him clear out of town on a fence rail! Law and order are enthroned in Wyoming with woman on top of them, scanning the plain for more conquests and it would appear wise for the rest of us to behave ourselves. If Wyoming should develop further Mesopotamian wonders in the shape of a Princess Xenobdia mounted at the head of a troop of shapped end sombreroed Amazons breezily in quest of trouble it will be high time for effete masculinity and anemic mollycoddles to take to their cyclone caves and there ponder the question of which is the weaker sex. - Hats off to the Wyoming sisters!

Negroes and Intermarriage of Races. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. Who is this self-appointed defender of the negro Cause by name Grace Wright? The negroes of this city are well contented in having the dogs of war sleep. The above correspondént reminds one of the little steamboat with such a large whistle that ev- ery time it was blown it stopped the boat. The in- termarrying of the blacks and whites is looked upon with as much disgust by the respectable negro as by the whites and the participants in such a wed- ding could be none other than degenerates and would not be received by either race socially. Let the Jap correspondent have them. NEGRO GENTLEMAN. One Kind of Hovo. Te the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. I notice in the Post-Dispatch a letter signed “A Boomer,’’ in which he desires to ‘‘set someone right” who, describes a hobo as a man who does construction work on railroads, ete. “A ,.Boomer’’ Says that a genuine hobo never soils his hands with any kind of manual labor. from twenty-five to one hundrej and fifty hotoes for thé last six years, and I want to set ‘‘A Boom- er’ right by saying that there is no better class of laborers on earth for construction and extra gang, pick and shovel and wheelbarrow,” Guarfy work of any kind of common labor usually known as pub-

out a boss, tell them what is wanted and they wil! do an honest, faithful day’s work and do it right, as théy nearly all knaw how to. do this kind of work and do it to advantage—make every move count. They will not, ag a rule, stay long on a job, but while they do stay there are no better workers. ALL_TRUE.

Wall Replies to Wixford. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch, Replying to Mr. Wixford’s questions in the Post- Dispatch, ence in principle between the use of sulphate of iron and lime for water purification as developed and used at Quincy, Hl., and’the use of the same chemicals for the samé purpose at St. Louis. The lack of per- fect uniformity in the methods in use at the two places is due to the difference of conditions, necessi- tating changes in the manner of applying the chem- icals as well as in the amounts used. The process used at St. Louis during the World’s Fair and since, was not a discovery at all, but @n adaptation of the Quincy progess, modified to- meet St, Louis condl- tions. The Quincy process was first suggested by Mr. W. B. Bull and installed at the Quincy Water- works in July, 19902. I have. not said that Mr. Wix- ‘ford had of: had not patents covering the’ use of sulphate of ifon and lime for water purification, so that his Question 4 calls for no reply. ) EDWARD E. WALL, Assistant Water Commissioner. A GOLDEN DAY. From the Indianapolis News. The St. Louis scheme to make June 1 “employment day” ought to take a good deal of the blue out of that particular Monday, anyhow. THE ST. LOUIS STREET RAILWAY CASE. From the Pittsburg Dispatch. In effect, the decision of the Supreme Court of the United States asserts the right and power of a mu- icipality to exact a license fee, based upom the num- ber of passengers carried, regardless of the omission of such a provision from the charter ordinance. It holds the city may impose this tax without the con- sent of the street railway companies affected. It does not fix the limit of such an exaction, but it is plainly of the opinion that 1 mill for each passenger is not ‘‘confiscatory’’ in the case of the St. Louls company. It might draw the’line against 1 cent on each passenger, or on 2 mills, possibly, for the Su- preme Court rules on no matters that are not before it It is probable, however, that varfous councils will become activé in trying to locate the limit. THE GOOD MEDICINE. From the Joplin (Mo.) News-Herald. Sunshine societies are the proper caper in these days. St. Louis merchants have been gadding about the country—even penetrating the stygian finance darkness of the East—and spreading the gospel of prosperity. The country is catching on, feeling bet- ter for the smile and before long our troubles will be over. But Bryn Mawr College has gone the St. Loulis- ans and their publicity bureau one better. The au- thorities of that institution have just awarded a prize to the member of the senior class who showed “throughout her four years in college in the highest degree the qualities of joyousness, high courage, fortitude and faithfulness.” That such a prize is es- tablished in memory of & woman is the highest possi- ble testimonial to her. Though temperament may have something to do with the manifestation of these fine qualities, it is largely a matter of self-trainigg and victory over the natural pessimism of the indi- vidual. To Win a prize for excellence in these quall- tles will be considered just about as valuable as a medal for arepe. FOOLISH TACTICS.

AT LAST. If what they are saying in the Kast is true, we are at last tc have a presi- dential issue that we can all under- stand, It is notorious that the tariff was never understood by the great mass of voters. Though Mr. Cleveland won the ivpresidency twice upon 4 proposition to revise the tariff, and the Republicans several times triumpned upon proposals to fix it according to their notions, it is a fact that tue rank and file of neither party understood the issue or could have made at the time an in- telligible differentiation between an ad valorem and any other import tax. The silver issue vras even less under- stood. A great and enthusiastic body sof voters followed wir.

(Continued.) How the Men Actually Propose. NE of the most remarkable matri- monial offers ever penned was surely that of George Whitefield, who wrote thus to the parents of the Jady he wished to wed: “This comes like Abraham’s servant to Rebekah’'s re- lations to know whether you think your daughter, Miss E., is a proper person to engage in such an undertaking? If so, whether you wili be pleased to give me leave to propose marriage to her? You need not be afraid of sending me a refusal, for, I bless God, if I know anything of my own heart, I am free from that foolish passion which the world calls love. I write only because I believe it is the will of God that I should alter my state; but your denial will fully convince me that your daugh- ter is not the person appointed by God for me.”’ To the lady herself Whitefield wrote: ‘4 make no profession to you. The pas-

. glonate expressions which’ carnal lovers use, ought, I think, to be avoided. I can only promise to keep my matri- monial vow.” “TI am convinced that I could never make your happy,’ wrote another “poor worm” to the lady who had won his heart. “You are of a different world from mine. You are to me as white marble to dull red clay. The devotion of my life would not recompense you for the sacrifice you would make in marrying me. I know I can never hope to make you happy, but if you think otherwise let me know by return.” ‘she woman who could accept so craven a lover as this can scarcely hope to be complimented on her judgment or on her -capture. That pity may (as, no doubdt, it often does) pave the way for Cupid was proved by the experience of William Blake, the famous painter. One day he was describing to Miss Catherine Bout- cher the shameful way in which a cer- tain coquette had trified with his affec- tions. he young lady listened, with eyes moist with sympathy, to the tale of his woes, and when the recital was ended, said tenderly, “I pity you from the bottom of my heart.” “You pity me?’ exclaimed Blake, in pleased sur- prise. “Then if you pity me I love you for it.” “And I love you,” was Miss Boutcher’s prompt and frank re- joinder. Tt was a similar sentiment that led to Boswell’s unhappy marriage with Miss Montgomerie. A pretty Irish girl had played sad havoc (with Boswell's heart, alternately transporting him to the seventh heaven of rapture with her smiles and plunging him in the depths of despair by her frowns, and had crowned her cruelty by laughing in his face when in desperation he sued for her hand in marriage. When he poured out his troubles in the ears of his fair cousin, Margaret Montgomerie, that lady’s sympathy so affected him that he proposed to her on the spot. Bismarck’s iron resolution was never better demonstrated than in his love- making. At his very first meeting with the lady who was to share his life for so many years he proposed to her and was accepted; and on the fol- lowing day, presenting himself at the house of her parents, who knew him : only as a young man of undesirable reputation, he demanded the young lady’s hid and refused to leave the thouse until his suit was granted. Gainsborough's wooing was made al- most absur..ly easy for him. He had completed a portrait of Miss Burr, a charming young lady of 16 summers, when his fair sitter was so delighted with her presentment that she more than hinted that while she took the copy the artist might claim the origina! Gainsborough was not the man to de- @line such a tempting offer, and closed ; with it right on the spot. Probably no gallant who ever laid “his heart at a fair lady’s feet was more undecided than Lord Byron when he _ ‘wrote the letter which committed him to his unhappy marriage with Miss Mii- . He had just proposed to an- other lady arid as he held her letter of to a friend: “It seems that it is to be Miss Mil- I will write to her.” He sat down and wrote the “fatal letter,” handing it to his friend for perusal. “A very pretty letter,” the _ friend remarked after reading it. “It's @ pity that it : -ildn’t go.” “Then it shall go,” exclaimed Tyron: and thus opened one of the most tragic chapters of his checkered life story. Edison’s method of wooing was very characteristic. One day he strolled into one of his workrooms and stood behind the chair of a pretty operator who was absorbed in her work. The girl glanced ee BETTER THAN THE: IMPORTED _ ([grrAss eo a 7 . oe | | said: “I knew it was you, Mr. Edison! 1 always know when you are near.” He answered, to her amazement: “I’ve been thinking ai great deal about you lately, and if you are willing to marry me I would like to marry you.” A month later the pretty em- ploye was promoted to a partnership which she has never since regretted. Spohr won his wife with equally dra- matic suddenness. After playing a duet at a concert with Dorette Scheidler, a beautiful and gifted harpist, and while the tumult of applause was still ring- ing in their ears, he said to his com- panion, “Shall we play together thus through life?’ For answer “the lady burst into tears and sank into his arms.” What answer could be more conclusive or eloquent? But Cupid had a hundred devices to aid lovers in the formidable task of proposing. It was, for instance, through the innocent medium of a book that Monkeys’ thumbs abut from the hand at a point close to the fingers. The closer to this formation a human being comes, the more monkey-like intelli- gence and character he is apt to have. A thumb set very close to the wrist shows sympathy for all in distress, great gencrosity, independence, love of liber- ty for self and others, and a readiness to share with the unfortunate. When the second phalanx of the thumb is much longer than the nail- phalanx, there is a discordant relation between reason and will, Reason preponderates to such an ex- tent that the entire life is spent in planning what to do, without ever doing. A person of this kind sees clearly what is best for him, but lacks determination to put it into execution. He sees the goal and the steps neces- sary for attaining it; but in the same glance he takes in all the obstacles, and, while he is pondering the matter

H In area the national reservations west of the Mississippi River cover 234,170 square miles, or 149,869,000 acres. There is being spent in the Western States $40,000,000 for reclamation, and $5,000,000 is needed at once for the Eastern States. Proposed Eastern forest reservation include 660,000 acres, or 1030 square miles, in the White Mountains, and 5,000,000 acres, or 7800 square miles, in the Southern Appalachians. In 1907 President Roosevelt added 17,000,000 acres to the Western forests, and a Dill is pending in Congress to provide for the two national forest areas in the Eastern mountains, with a preliminary appropriation of $5,000,000. ne

Spurgeon won his wife. One day, while reading Tupper’s ‘‘Proverbial Philoso- phy,” he came to the ilnes: “If thou ari to have the wife of thy youth, she is now living on the earth; Therefore pray for her and think of her weal;’’ and, pointing out the couplet to the girl he loved, he asked, ““‘Do you pray for him who is to be your husband?” But even when the lady declines to lend a helping hand to her coy wooer, there are other ways out of the difficul- ty, as that desperate lover found who, after shivering in silence for a quarter of an hour on the brink of a proposal, turned to the cat at his lady’s feet and said: “Pussy, won’t you ask Lizzie if she will marry me?’ The ice was broken, and Lizzie promptly accepted the cat’s mediation. Oliver Wendell Holmes tells a pretty story of a young coupie who were walk- ing to the nearest town by a field foot- path. The lady had a basket, of which her escort politely relieved her. ‘I wish,” the gentleman ventured, after a long period of silence, “you would let me carry your basket—always.” “With pleasure,’ was the maiden’s answer; and so they went the rest of the way hand in hand, 9nd agreed to carry the basket between them all their life. When Schumann, the famous com- poser, fell head over heels in love with Clara Wieck, ij.is master’s daughter, his path of courtship was by no means one of roses, for Herr Wieck had no Wish to see his only daughter the wife of a penniless musician, and, forbade the young lovers to hold any communi- cation with each other. But love laughs at parenta, frowns; and as Schumann was not allowed even to write to his lady-love he poured out his soul to her in a series of “Letters to Clara,” printed in a musical journal of which he was editor. When the time was ripe for setting his destiny he made music the vehicle of his passion. He actually proposed to Clara on the piano under the very nose of for father, without a single word being ut- tered: and received her joyful assent through the sai..e medium. One day when Dr. Dawson, eloquent preacher of a century ago, called to see Miss Corbett, a wealthy admirer of his

for Dr. Dawson: and we cannot won- der that Miss Corbett soon changed her name. The romantic story of the late Lord Kelvin’s proposal is perhaps better known. ‘In the early seventies Sir William Thompson, as the great sci- entist was then, was dining with some friends at Madeira when he endeavored to explain to them his improved method of signalling at sea. ‘fhe only person, however, who appeared to grasp its technicalities was his host’s daughter, Miss Blandy, whose charm and intelli- gence had won his admiration. “I quite understand, she said at the close of his explanation. “Are you sure?” Sir William asked. ‘lf I sent you a signal from my yacht, do you think you could read and answer it?’ “Oh, yes,”’ was the confident answer, “I feel sure I could make it out.” The next morning the signal was sent and deciphered. The question was, ‘Will you marry me?’ and swiftly the ans- wer sped back, ‘‘Yes.”’ To Be Continued in the Post-Dispatch Tomorrow. HAS HIS CHANCE, From the Chicago Record-Herald. .

Beans vs. Meat Beans and meat have about the same food value, but not the same cost Which would you rather serve? Beans are 23 per cent nitrogenous—84 per cent nutri- ment. They are Nature’s choicest food. If you could serve them once a day, think how much you would save on your meat bills. Will it not pay you to get the best beans—beans that are always ready—beans that your peopie will want? Encourage your folks to eat beans. They are appetizing, hearty, cheap You who serve home-baked beans don’t serve them often, because they are hard to prepare and hard to digest. Beans, to be digestible, must be factory cooked. Your Oven isn’t hot enough; you can’t break down their fibre. And beans should be baked in live steam, as ours are. Then they are mealy and nutty and whole. Van Camp’s pork and baked with tomato sauce The beans that we buy cost $2.10 per bushel. beans sell as low as 30 cents. We spend five times as much to make our tomato sauce as other sauce costs ready-made. That’s why some brands may be cheaper. But the most economical, in the long run, are those that your people like. Our beans, our tomato sauce and our pork are baked 90 minutes together Thus we get our delicious blend. And Van Camp’s have a nutty flavor, a sparkling zest, a piquant tang that you cant get in other brands. Keep a dozen cans in the house—a dozen meals always ready.

LE RN AR GTO POEL EON “HAS BROUGHT THE” FOUNTAIN OF YOUTH TO THE BROWN VETERANS SSS —

OF ELECTRICITY, YOUNG AGAIN a Trainer Brings Back Old Power to Twirling

Arm of the Veteran.

BY JAMES CRUSINBERRY. _ BOSTON, May 22.—About. the sweetest piece of news James McAleer, our leader of the Browns, has heard since starting East, was whispered’ in his ear last night. Big Bill Dinneen, that grand pitcher of former days, quietly ap- hed his manager and said he was ready for business. Bill thinks his arm in shape now to pitch the same kind of baseball for the Browns as he did for Boston back in 1903 and 1904, when the Bean Team captured the pennant in the American League. “Mr. McAleer has been chuckling and Whistling to himself ever since these fords beat their way to his mind, for > & & on “Big Bill” that McAleer is bas- > img his hopes for success this year. > = a Jinneen and Powell and Howell are, a @ 4 brainy pitchers.

He will soon vi ‘the whole team charged with elec- ity and then it should work like whtning. Dinneen took most kindly to the little battery and the vigorous rub- Mes of Trainer Joe right from the mt, and the result in his case has n remarkable. ‘s Like Fountain of Youth. ra, feel just tike fighting someone all he time,” said the big twirler. “That ricity seems to drive out all the reg and lazy feelings a fellow has and } him up with youth and vigor again. “would have laughed if anyone would | told me before that it had such Wwers.

George Stone struck out in the first inning against Burchell’s curves, .but in the fourth he combed a single past Un- glaub’s ear. Shortstop Wagner of the Boston team made a great impression on the fans ert year, but he never has learned to c Manager McGuire says he has another nine on the bench almost as good as the one in the field, Roy Schweitzer once more played in Hoffman's place because a left-handed pitcher was working. Old Cy Young was out batting flies to the Boston outflelders and he ap- peared better than last year. He will probably pitch the Saturday game.

FINGER TALK AND CRANDALL BEAT LOCAL Dummy Taylor’s Language Used by McGraw to Run the Giants. Manager John McGraw may not need his well-advertised pitcher, Christy Mathewson as badly as he supposed if a certain Mr. Crandall, who showed in the larger part of yesterday‘s game against the Cardinals continues to pitch the kind of baseball that helped the Gi- ants to beat the locals 8 to 4 yesterday. Beginning in the second half of the fourth inning, this youngster twirled out the game and the Cardinals, al- though they started out with every evi- dence of winning the second game of the series, were closed up ‘like a jack- knife. But one single was made off Crandall and but two men got to first base during his tenure of the box, an error giving ohne man a pass. ‘ In antithesis, the work of the Carat’ nals’ pitching department was saffron- hued. McCloskey’s boxmen have been heralded as the greatest in the National League. Within a space of a week the fans have seen Beebe, Fromme and Karger badly battered and bent. , Karger Off Badly. Yesterday Eddie Karger started in to work for the Cardinals. Despite a four- run lead in three innings, which the Cardinals batted out on “Dummy” Tay- lor, who opened the contest for New York, Karger was unable to hold his advantage. He had been scored against twice and had passed men to the bags until Fromme, when the umpire chased Karger to the bench for questioning a decision, inherited such a burden that he was extremely fortunate to close up accounts with New York at a sacrifice of two more runs. But Fromme was anything but a world-beater yesterday. Following his advent to the game the Giants contin- ued to seek and find his curves and four more runs swelled their total be- fore the game was over. : Taylor Not At Best. ‘DMummy” Taylor is evidently not at his best, like McGinnity and Mathew- son. The man who is responsible for the most unique signal code in base- ball was a mark for the Cardinals. A double and a triple, coupled with Nick- lin’s fumble on Charles’ grounder, a force out and a long fly, netted two runs off the deaf mute in the first in- ning. In the third, with two men out, Delehanty and Konetchy’s safeties, fol- lowed by O’Rourke’s timely rap, netted two more runs, and Dummy was chased to the bench in favor of Crandall. If ‘‘Dummy”’ never does another thing in his life he will be worth doing in oil and hanging in the Brush mansion. Since his advent to the team it has be- come necessary for every member of the aggregation to acquire a working knowl- edge of how to talk with the hand. In a game Taylor’s only method of com- municating with his captain or mana- ger has been through the mute’s finger language, and so through hig presence on the club, ‘all the team members have become familiar with the employment of this means of communication. Rung Team by Fingers. Realizing the value of this in running his team, McGraw has had his men pay especial attention to it until now al’ his plays from the bench are described in digital terms. It was for his failure to follow signals delivered in this manner in the first Giants-St. Louis game here that Doyle was taken off the regular team at the outset of yesterday’s game and replaced by Nicklin.

Arthur Stickney, brothers and both members of the Country Club, are almost certain to win their matches in the semi-final rouad of the annual tournament for the city golf championship on the Glen Echo CountryCiub links this afternoon, weath- er permitting, and, if they do win, they should furnish a great contest when they clash in the final contest of 36 holes tomorrow. Stuart Stickney is playing better tour- nament golf in the present tournament than he ever displayed in competition before. Arthur Stickney’s fine putting has won over all the ‘wise’ followers of the game to the belief that he will retain his title of champion of the city won last year by defeating his brother in the final match Saturday. Today’s matches will be at 18 holes, Arthur, Stickney being paired with W. R. Orthwein and Stuart Stickney with Jesse Carleton. Orthwein lacks Stick- ney’s experience. He does not play the golf that Stickney does, as he has only been competing in loca! tournaments for & comparatively short time. Stuart Stickney will no doubt have the harder competition in his match with Jesse Carleton. The big Glen Echo champion is playing his best game right now, and yesterday defeated Bart S. Adams, for- mer State champion, 2 up and 1 to play. William Duffy, golf professional at the Glen Echo Club, declares that Carleton is playing the best golf he ever did in his life, and that anybody that counts him out of the championship final does not know what he is talking about. Arthur Stickney’s Good Game, Arthur Stickney is a hard man to beat right now also. He always has a few speed notches in reserve and when he cuts loose he can speed up at quite a lively rate. His defeat of Chris Kenney of the Algonquin Club was quite a creditable performance, as Kenney had been playing fine golf. Stickney holed one 30-foot putt and also sent in several others from almost the edge of the green. Stickney had always been a strong driver and a good man on the approach, but when he started rolling the ball into the cup from the edge of the green his friends opened their eyes. Stuart Stickney’s defeat of Ralph Mc- Kittrick of the Country Club, former city champion on two different occa- sions, and former State champion, is the best feather that has been placed in his cap in a long time, especially as Stuart showed an abundance of game- ness and did not ‘‘blow up”’ or weaken when he found himself in a tight place. McKittrick was off in his approach shots yesterday. Usually McKittrick can make a bad drive, but on the approach shot he recovers. High Wind Blowing. A gale was blowing when the men started out yesterday. Stickney had made the low score in the qualifying round, 76, but McKittrick was generally expected to win from Stickney, as it was not figured that Stickney could stand the strain of playing McKittrick. . : ohas broken the world's record n 8h. im. covering a thousand oe + wo the previ-

OLSEN WINS IN SPRINTING BOUT ——— eee Charles Olsen almost covered the Mar- athon distance of 25 miles in his wrest-. ling match with Frank Gotch at the Standard Theater last night, as Gotch chased Olsen hard for minutes and Olsen traveled about the stage at about a 10«second clip for the entire time. Olsen, nevertheless, got another $100 of the world’s champion wrestler’s money as Gotch could not put his shoulders to the mat inside of the stipu- lated 16 minutes. Olsen also lasted 15 .minutes with Gotch Tuesday night. It is probable that Jim Prokus, the Greek, will op- pose Gotch this evening. COOK MAKES WINNING BN TWO Special to the Post- Dispatch.

BRIDGEPORT, Conn., May 22.—Willie Fitzgerald of Broowlyn, the “fighting harp,” and Tommy Briggs of Boston fought a terrific 10-round draw before the Olympia Club here last night. Briggs forced the fighting from the first, put- ting Fitzgerald on the defensive. The latter gave a wonderful exhibition of boxing and avoiding Briggs’_rushes hit him repeatedly.. In the sixth round Fitz forced Briggs out of his crouch and beat him to the ropes. Briggs dis- played remarkable stamina, however, and held his own during the remaining rounds. He was still in the ring and fighting gamely when the gong rang in

National League pitchers are either exceptionally effective or the batters in the older major league are weaker than in the American, for but three “gen are hitting over .200, while in the Johnsonian organization no less than S$ are above the qualifying mark for star batsmen. Of these, St. Louis furnishes George Stone. Stone’s mark_is .324—about Sis normal mark during the entire season this year. Bemis, in 10 games for Cleveland, has hit the ball at the ratesof .340 and is leading the jeague. Rossman of Detroit and McConnell of Boston are tied for second place with .347, while New York’s phenomenon, Ball, is a rattling fourth with .346. Ty Cobb has fallen off in the percentages to .340 and the other .300 hit- ters are Chase, Turner, Pickering and Lord. Criss, with .273, is a long dis- tance in front of the othér Browns, who are batting very tamely. In the National League, Dooin of Philadelphia is doing the best hit- ting, with a record of .347 for the season. Leach and Titus are .338 and .311 respectively. Murray is the best hitter for the Cardinals, - with Delehanty next best at .262. The figures: __ NATIONAL LEAGUE BATTING AVERAGES. Ave. This .B. Week. ground for hoping he will he forgiven. But when a man, a full-grown man, with an arm strong enough to put an- other kink in the horn of a mountain goat, persists in remaining boyish up to the age of 33, it is time to write him down in capitals as incorrigible, Perhaps never in the history of the national] game have baseball managers taken the insults, indifference and va- garies of one man so kindly. as has been the case with “‘Rube’’ Waddell. He has, at one time or another, seriously em- barrassed every team with which he has been connected. His treatment, which must necessar- ily be lenient in order to keep on any club’s roster, has caused many a heart burning and jealously on the part of less favored members of the teams with which he has been associated, and it was because he threatened’ to disor- ganize the Philadelphia Americans that he was let go by Connie Mack, who threaded his ewn hair with many a strand of gray during the years when Rube was in his charge. Rube’s existence in baseball at the present time is due purely to his draw- ing powers. Undoubtedly the big man’s arm is not all out and he could pitch many winning games for any club if he would; undoubtedly he would cause many a dollar to roll into the coffer of baseball magnates. But baseball has no need of buffoons to keep it alive; or if it has, it is getting to be a bur- lesque.

He is a menace to a team, not a benefit; and the club that relies on him is in bad case. If dispatches are true Rube has been vilifying Manager McAleer in Philadel- phia. Personally I was a member of the Browns party that went to French Lick Springs in February. Rube Wad- dell was one and our apartments ad- joined. At that time Rube had nothing but praise to hand to the Browns man- agement. All he wanted, he said, was a chance to show Manager Mack that he was still an asset not to be lightly tossed away, and he would show him before the season was over. He was almost fulsome in his favor- able remarks about his connection with the St. Louls Club. In contrast with his statements yesterday, made when he is reported to have signed with the Union League, are these earlier decla- rations. They indicate that Rube is irresponsible, and instead of needing a trainer he should be provided with a keeper. . Probably not another cluz American or National League would take up Rube for his mere pitching ability. Some managers, well provided with pitchers, might take him on as an advertisement; but for his mere intrin- sic worth, not a big league club wants Rube, in’ spits of his arm. The fact speaks for itself, amd if Rube plays a game with the outlaw league it means the knell of his career. T see to it that Waddell is kept out of baseball if he goes to the Union League this time. His name ought to be written in full caps at the top of a black list, if there really is such a thing in baseball; nor should the en- treaties of himself or any notoriety- seeking management suffice to induce the ruling body in baseball to alter its stand in the matter. Waddell has too long been the tail that wagged certain baseball teams. Connie Mack had to let him go. Mc- Aleer will lose nothing by his depart- ure, save worry that would have put a few more’gray hairs’ into his poll. S peculfar town in the country in respect to tournament golf. In the last ten years the complexion of the city tournaments has scarcely changed as regards the men who have fought it out in the end for the title. The Stickney brothers, Bart Adams, Harry Allen, Ralph McKittrick, Jesse Carelton, Albert Lambert, and one or two others have constituted the im- portant factors in local championships for years; and today they are still the ones who made most of the running for the 1908 championship, now near- ing its close.

Special Correspondence of the Post. Dispatch. = DURBAN, Natal., South Africa, May «~The Natal coal trade is taking great strides towards a foremost place among + South African industries. An of. ficial return “Sust issued shows that the coal mined in the colony tn 1907 was over 1,530,000 tons, and as the ‘total of 1906 was only 1,230,000 tons there has been an increase in output‘in the 12 months of about 2% per Genr. a a a Gl III re AF Ny.

Natal ts shown by the fact that it was the prox- imity of an ample fuel supply that re- cently | iifludhced Messrs, Kynochs (Ltd.) in selecting the colony for the establishment of a South African explo- sives industry. Mr. Arthur Chamberiain has stated that he could have obtained an ade- quate site and water facilities from other governmients free of cost, but Durban was the only South African for the factory, but in sufficient quan- titles to provide return cargo for the boats bringing raw material for the in- dustry. The factory, which is already being erected at Umbogintwini, will consume from 66,000 to 60,000 tons of coal amnogally, and a like quantity will be exported.

The Natal State railways consumed 245,000 tons, vessels bunkering at Dur- ban took 666,000 tons, 450,000 tons were exported by land or sea, and about 160,- 000 tons remained to sgtisfy the ordi- nary wants of the colony. Phe Eppor.

WASHINGTON, May i—The body of George Clinton, twice Vice-President of the United States and firat Governor of the Empire State, of which he was the executive for 21 years, was exhumed at the old Congregational Cemetery and transferred to the United States Naval Hospital, where it now les, awaiting re- moval to'the old’ Clinten home at Kings- ton.
