PRIEST TAKES UBWOMAN'S FOSTER CHILD ‘Father Bannon Objects to “At- rrr s

mosphere of Club Ideas” for Girl.

LED AWAY AMID TEARS Mrs. O. A. Buck of East St. Louis Thinks of Bringing Lawsuit.

GOING TO CLEVELAND Guardians Call for Six-Year- ‘Old Ward When They Learn of Plans.

Mrs. O. A. Buck, conspicuous as a clubwoman in East St. -Louis, was forced Tuesday to give up a child which she was rearing, and to which she had grown deeply attached, because the Rev. Father Thomas S. Bannon of 8t. Jo- Church thinks it unwise for the child to grow up in an atmosphere of “club ideas.’ The child is 8-year-old Marguerite McInerney, daughter of a former police- man, who died three years ago. Her mother died a year ago and the Rev. Father Bannon, in a sermon, requested members of his congregation to _ find homes for’ the six orphans thus left homeless. The oldest was then 13. Mrs. Buck was .attracted to Mar- guerite, a bright and winsome child, and offered to adopt her. Mrs. Buck is @ member of St. Joseph’s Church. Expected to Keep Girl. On her deathbed Mrs. McInerney ap- | pointed Father Bannon and a relative ~flamed Clamaine as guardians of her ehildren. Mrs. Buck says Father Ban-| hon gave her custody of Marguerite; toid her, when she suggested taking out adoption papers, that she could do as she pleased about that, but that the gir] would remain hers. Buck is a buyer for a packing com- pany, and a month ago he received or- ders to go to Cleveland. Mrs. Buck no- tifted Father wannen, and he told the relatives. In an interview Monday with Father Bannon, Mrs. Buck was teld, she says. that he. disapproved her remaining in the women’s club after it had beceme @ part of the Illinois Federation of Women’s Clubs, and accepting a posi- tion as secretary of the Financial Com- mittee of the Illineis body. She says he remarked that he did not think women’s clubs good, and that he and the relatives had decided it weuld be best for Marguerite not to ge to ‘Cleveland and continue “in an atmo- sphere of that kind.” Both Weep at Parting. Clamaine and Father Bannon called Tuesday for Margucrite, and teek her away. Both she and Mrs. Buck wept at the parting. Mrs. Buck told a Post-Dispatch report- rT that she had consulted an aitterney bout legal proceedings to recover pos- ssion of the girl, but that she weuld _ ate ° pesoeoetoes * » —— MRS. 0. A.

I was hungry and when I saw that pie, I _couldn’t keep my hands off it.’’ } “What did you do with the pie?’ asked the Judge. “I slipped it in the waistband of my trousers.”’ ‘What kind of pie was it?’ “Gooseberry, Your Honor.” “It must have spilled considerably, didn’t it?’’ “Yes, Your Honor. It nearly all spilled. I didn’t get anything but’ the crust.”’ “ punacharged,” said Judge Taylor. ou have been punished enough.” PASTORS REFUSE T0 ST «ll PLATFORM. WITH, PERRIN ae Views on Saloons Cause Minis- ters to Boycott High School Commencement. Special to the Post-Dispatch. CARMI, Ill., June 2.—Because a Chau- tauqua speaker called former Congress- man J. Nick Perrin of Belleville “‘an advocate of saloons,’’ the ministers of Carmi have refused to let their names go on the High School commencement program, and tonight, when Perrin ad- dresses the seven High School gradu- ates, an imported minister will pro- nounce the benediction. A Chautauqua was held in this city last week, and one of the lecturers cen- sured the Scheol Board because they en- gaged Perrin to speak, and he also urged the ministers to have nothing to do with the affair. The school management, as_ custom- ary, invited a minister. to be present at the exercises, but he refused. All the others who were asked refused, and an invitation was sent to Rev. 8. 8. Smith, a Methodist minister at Epworth, who agreed to grace the platform with Mr. Perrin.

POOL: EXPERT POCKETED AMID CHATTER BOXES “Kid” Hueston’s Auto Plunges Through Window Into Phonograph Store. +] POLICEMEN TAKE CUE Hearing Glass Jingle, T : y Rush From All Sides to Seize “Burglar.” ex—and poo! Tues- Thomas A. (Kid) Hueston, it be next—champion player, lazily at ease early day in an automobile speeding home- ward to the St. James Hotel, slid down into the seat and fell to star-gazing. The sky reminded him of a pool table. Picking out difficult shots, the ‘‘Kid’” imagined himself playing them amid the plaudits of spectators, and ignominious- ly defeating De Oro. Chuckling softly, the ‘‘Kid’’ fell asleep. The big touring car was whizzing east on Olive street and ‘“‘Kid’’ Hues- ton was putting up the game of his life. The man in the moon was s0 Car- ried away with the skillful stroke of the cue artist that he just ‘could not make his eyes behave, but kept blink-ng with admiration and smiled with de- light every time the “Kid” placéd the ball in a pocket. Voices All Around. Suddenly what appeared to be an ex- plosion awakened the “Kid” with a start. He was just two points ahead, and it was the other man’s turn at the cue. The interruption vexed him. He made an effort to voice his displeasure, but the sound of his speech was drowned in a sea of conversation. «What the—Where are we?” screamed the ‘‘Kid.”’ “2. 2 phoneraps parlor,”’ may replied, “Whe said I ea out?” demanded } the “Kid.” “T dunne. It must have been the goal- keeper,”’ said Johnson, in an effort to quiet Hueston. “Did I fall out of the balloon?’ asked the “Kid.” “No, mo, you're safe,” soothingly. “Safe at third?’”’ ‘‘No, in the side pocket. “~ Burglar, Thought Police. The conversation was stopped by the arrival of a dozen policemen. They had heard the crash as the big touring car plunged through the plate-glass window of the St. Leuis Talking Machine store, 1012 Olive street, and had rushed _ from all directions, thinking burglars were at work. The ‘“‘Kid’’ was bewildered. All about him were phonegraphs. Several of them, with records attached, had been started by the collision, and they were shouting all sorts of things into Hueston’s ears. ‘Hold on a minute. This is all a mis- take,’’ explained Hueston, as two police- men seized him. “I did not order the chauffeur to drive in here. Honest I didn’t.”’ It developed that Johnson had steered the machine away from the path of a mail wagon. The auto had skidded, col- ldied with the wagon and had then crashed into the talking machine parlor. Johnson was taken to Central District Police Station and booked for. Police said Johnson,

ing Their Reunion. J. Nagashinia ani J. Nag, Nippones were fined $3 apiece in the Dayton Stree Police Court Tuesday for having a good time on the American plan. Policeman Skelly found them Monday night at Twenty-third street and Lu- cas avenue, cutting such lively capers that they had a large audience. He locked them up. From their explanations to Judge Pol- lard, it appears that Nagashinia has sO much money that he can travel for pleasure. He said he came to New York two years ago and liked it so well there that he stayed there until lately, when he came to St. Louis. He has been stopping here at 3016 Locust street. Nag is enly a Chicago cook, but he has some money, too. He stopped off here on his way to Michigan, to see his old friend, Nagashinia. They were celebrating his departure when they were arrested. Nagashinia did all the talking. Nag rested his head on his hand. He said he was so tired. Nagashinia wanted the Judge to stay the fines, but he was told that if that were done he would carry back to Japan an erroneous idea of American justice. He paid both fines and the costs out of the $100 which he had when arrested. LYNCHED MAN’S WIDOW SOUGHT Man

Former St. Louisan’s Latest Book, So Named, Is Proof of It. ——— HE EXCUSES SUICIDE

Words of Wisdom, Told in Tabloids, Almost All Alliterative.

Concentrated wisdom, in something more than 2500 tablets, is offered for public consumption in a little book just published by John A. Joyce, a former St. Louisan, now in the Internal Reve- nue Department at Washington. Mr. Joyce claims the authorship of “Laugh and the world laughs with you,” though the evidence that Ella Wheeler Wilcox wrote it, is pretty strong, and he has written many verses and several other books. His latest entertaining production is called ‘‘Truth.’’ It was to be expected that in saying 80 much, Mr. Joyce would reverse him- self. He does. On page 31 he says: “A little brilliant blarney is relished by everybody.”” On page 36, he writes: “Flattery, in any form, is an insult to a person of virtue.”’ Unless the reader concludes that there is no person of virtue in the world—a conclusion wholly at variance with Mr. Joyce’s vigorous and cheerful philosphy. —he is at loss to determine which of these aphorisms is ‘‘Truth.’’ Alliterative Aphorisms. The book is a study in alliteration. Here are some examples: ‘Temper, temptation and et * are the triplets of tragedy.’”’ ‘‘Music is the matchless magtetan of the multifarious mind,” “A proverb is a > Vegapaiee: potnt of truthful philosophy.” ; oY “Laughter tis the Ughtoing, ‘of love, peat the a decupitation of “of devo- tion.” “The public press. is the. promote; of ’? a’ ‘like 2000 more might be quoted. Mr. Joyce is fonu y line rhymes and alliter&tive phrases, : A> few of the gems of TAedotn which dropped from Mr. Joyce’s pen while he was writing ‘“‘Truth’”’ follow: “The ‘Bloody Angle” of action is the pivot of victory.” ‘“Fiattery is the sauce of hypocrisy.’’ “Anger is a lash that ignorance ap- plies to its own back.”’ ‘The person whe can blush is not en- tirely depraved.” _ ‘‘The immortality of now is ours.”’ “Like the hammer and the anvil, right and wrong sound in chorus.”’ “Telling your troubles enlarges ‘their Some Excuse in Suicide. Mr. Joyce believes circumstances ex- tenuate suicide. ‘“‘Better be dead than a burden to your fellow creature,” he ad- vises. Himself beardless, but the pos- sessor of a snowy mustache, he takes this fling at the Populists: “A brave, rustic beard is no indication of brilliant brain.”’ What Mr. Joyce thinks of the book is told in the last paragraph of the brief preface: ‘‘There are more short, wise, witty, various, defiant and independent sayings in this rare volume, arranged in- to one, two and three-line sentences, than have ever been uttered in ancient or modern times, from the brain of any other author.”’ BARON SAYS WOMAN JILTED HIM; TALKS OF SUING HER Wife of American Dentist in Paris Denies They Were Ever Engaged. PARIS, June 2.—A_ sensation was caused here today in exclusive society circles by the attempt of a Swedish baron, whose name has so far been kept a secret, to file a breach of prom- ise suit against the wife of Dr. Chance, an American dentist in Paris. Until her marriage in London three weeks ago Mrs. Chance was Mrs. King, widow of a Chicago lumber millionaire. The baron says’ Mrs. Chance was en- gaged to him and the first he knew of her intention not to keep the engage- ment was the news of her marriage. Mrs. Chance says she never was en- gaged to the baron. She admits they were in each other’s company a good deal, but says when she became en- gaged to Dr. Chance she got a written acknowledgment from the baron that he had no claim on. her.

ORE GIVING FIRE ALARM Let the Neighbors See *Ein So? Face Flames First.

After escaping from their home, 3116 New Ashland place, which was set on fire by a burglar at 3 a. m. Tuesday, Mrs. Mary Young, her sister, Mrs. Edith Paul and her daughter, Miss Fannie Leverich; too modest to permit their neighbors to see them scantily clad, rushed back in the burning building to get their clothes. They dressed in the yard pefore giving an alarm. The thrée women ‘slept in adjoining rooms on the third floor. Mrs. Paul was awakened by the noise of someone running through the kitchen on the first floor and found her room filled with smoke... She aroused Mrs. Young and Miss Leverich. All ran to the yard. “I suggested=that we wake up some of the neighbors, but my sister and my daughter said: ‘Just think how we look. We can’t be seen this way.’” said Mrs. Young. “I agreed with them that we would better go back and get something to wear. “When we reached the second floor we found that my daughter's room was the only one we could get into. “We dragged her trunk downstairs and opened: it in the yard. After we had dressed we called the neighbors.” By the time the firemen arrived the fire nad s;ained great headway ar! the interior of the building was ruined. No d6ne knows ‘who turned ifn the fire alarm. It was sounied while the women were dressing in the yard and before any of the neighbors knew there was a fire.

The Lemp Brewing Co. obtained a judgment Tuesday against William J. Lemp Jr. for $180 rent and possession of the résidence at 3343 South Thirteenth street, owned by the company and occu- pied by Mrs. Lillian. Handlan Lemp, who is suing Mr. Lemp for divorce. This means that the company can put her: out of the house, but it does not appear to be the intention to do 890 at once. Attorney Charles F. Krone, representing the company, has given or- ders to Constable John Eyermann of Justice Spies’ court that the writ is not to be served until he gives the’ word. It is understood that an agreement has been reached under which Mrs. Lemp will not be disturbed during the pendency of her divorce suit. First Case a Fallure. Tine judgment was obtained in Justice Spies’ court Tuesday. It was the second earing of the case. The first took place May 23. It cme to natght because the papers had not been preperly served. They had been left at the residence, but as Mr. Lemp has not lived there for a year, this was held to be insufficient. Before the case was callea the second time Tuesday, Mr. Lemp had been served in pers@n. The testimony was entirely formal. Of- ficers of the brewing company gave evi- dence as to ownership, and as to the fact that no rent had been paid for four mouptha. No defense was made, and judgment*was given by default. The rental value of the property—for the purposes of the sult-—-was fixed at 45 a month. Mra. Lemp has lived there with her ton, William J.

“Can a person get drunk by the ex- céssive use of water, internally or ex- ternally?’’ Desiring expert opinions on this ques- tion, raigea by the statement of Dr. L. D.

QMAN'S BODY IX CISTERN: SUICIDE IS SUSPECTED /

a. . Neighbor Finds Corpse When She Goes After Bucket of Water.

WAS DEAD TWO HOURS atu

¢ Husband Thought Mrs. Steu- man Lost and Had Noti- | fied Police.

The body of Mrs. Louisa Steinmann, 8 years old, was found in a cistern in the rear of her home, 1509 Warren street, Tuesday after her husband had been searching for her for two hours. Members of t amily told the police that they believ@¥she committed sui- cide. ¥ ’ Husband Tells Police. Mrs. Steinmann left. her home at 5:30 a. m. When she did\not return, her husband, Henry, became anxious and reported her disappearance to a police- man. . At 7:30 a. m. Mrs. Louisa Luke, whose rooms are under those of the: Stein- manne, went to the cistern for a bucket of water. he cistern is enclosed in a box four feet high and has a cover. This was open. Unable to turn the crank handle Mra. Luke peered into the well to see what was the obstruction. She saw the body of her neighbor. Removed With Ladder. She called for help. Neighbors sum-. moned George A. Maule, ainner at 1528 ' Montgomery street, who placed a ladder | ‘tn the well afd removed -.e body with the help of neighbors | Steinmann says that his’ wife had no occasion to go to the cistern. He closed the cover last night and says that it would have been imposstble for his wife to have entered the cistern without first removing the top and then climbing over the four-foot bex. Severely Shocked. The electrical clothes-bleaching appa- ratus lately installed by the Westmin- ster Laundry Co., 4115-17 Olive street, caused a severe shock to a new employe recently. Although an old laundry hand, having worked for nearly all of the oth- er laundries in St. Louis; he had never heurd of bleaching by electricity. When he asked where the bleaching powder was kept and was told that electricity Was used exclusively for bleaching the clothes He received a shock that for the raoment unnerved him. Hé qufckly re- covered, bowever, when he saw the white goods come from the _ electric bleaching device snowy white and saw the colored goods appear with their col- ors brightened and entirely unfaded. By this new process the Westminster Laun- dry Co. eliminate all possibility of in- jury to fabrics, another reason why you will stopurkicken when this con- gcientious and progressive laundry does your work. GIRLS, DON’T WAIT FOR MAN OUTSIDE A SALOON East St. Louis Young Woman Who Did So Lost Escort and Her Jewelry. Miss Bessie Frazier, cashier of the San Antonio Cafe in East St. Louis, re- ported to the police Tuesday that she had been robbed of $9% and jewelry worth $200. She said a man with whom

- Withdraws Action Against O’Brien Printing Co., Which Fights.

COUNTER CLAIM FILED

Light Corporation Stops After a New York Decision Is Cited.

The Union Electric Light and Power against the William H. O’Brien Print- ing Co. of 1311 Chestnut street to col- lect $337.48. The printing company filed a counter claim and alleged that it had been dis- criminated against, and that other con- sumers had been given much lower rates. Wiliam H. O’Brien, president of the printing company, is a lawyer. It was his opinion that Union Electric, being a public service corporation, had no right to charge him 20 cents a kilowatt hour for electricity when it was selling elec- tricity to other consumers for 5 cents a Kilowatt hour, or less. Accordingly he filed a counter claim for $243.45 for alleged overcharges. Mr. O’Brien succeeded in finding several consumers using a much smaller quan- tity of electricity than the printing com- pany was that were getting service as low as 10 cents a kilowatt hour. His rate was 20 cents a kilowatt hour, with discounts which made his net rate about 14 cents. After the decision of the Supreme Court of New York in the case of the Armour Packing Co, against the Ed- ison Electric Illuminating’ Co. was made public the Union Electric attor- neys dropped the case against the O’Brien company. In this case the Armour company proved that it paid a lower rate for service than other concerns and the Court decided that as the Armour company “unaware of the discrimination, paid the company sums in excess of that charged oth. ers for the same service and under the same conditions, the payment was under the mistake of a material fact and hence, the exaction of the ex- cess, being unlawful, it wag recover- able.” The printing company had a contract with Union Electric for eurrent for operating its plant. The printing com- pany was being served under two con- tracts. When one of them expired, Mr. O’Brien refused to sign a new contract, but offered to pay for what current Was used. The company, without no- tice, disconnected the wires supplying current to the machinery affected by the expired contract. The printing company then threw al! Union Electric service out and refused to receive any more current finder the contract to supply power for the eopera- tion of the other machinery. ‘Union Electric rendered a bill for $337.48, claiming this amount to be due under the terms of the contract. The printing company refused to pay, and Union Electric brought suit in Justice Sanders’ court. The decision which frightened Union Electric was handed down by Judge Hooker of the Supreme Court of New York. The Armour Packing Co. had contracts with the Edison Electric Ii- luminating Co, to supply current at four of its establishments. The Armour Decision. It-was shown that the packing com- pany consumed large quantities of elec- tricity for which it paid, during a pe- ried of four years, at the rate of 17.26 cents a kilowatt hour. The packing company alleged that the electric com- pany had supplied the same service, un- der similar circumstances and _ condi- tions to other consumers, at an aver- age of 9 cents a kilowatt hour, and to others on a sliding scale rate of 10, 7% and 5 cents a kilowatf hour. It also claimed it did not know that other consumers were being charged a lower rate, and that it had been paying the regular monthly bills In ignorance of this fact. In deciding the case the Court quoted from Vol. 10, American and English En- cyclopedia of Law (2d Ed.), 869: “Electric Hght companies, being given-the use of the streets and pub- lic ways for the erection of such ap- pliances as are mecessary for the maintenance of their works, and hay- ing the right to acquire the use of land for their bu iness by writs of ad quod damnum, are quasi-public cor. porations, and it is therefore their duty to furnish the city’s inhabitants with electric light and te do so upon terms and conditions common to all and without discrimination. They cannot fix a variety of prices or im- pose different terms and conditions acording to their caprice or whim,” The Court said that the justice of the rule cannot be well doubted, and cited other decisions in support of it. q In another decision in the same case, rendered at the same time, the Court held that the fact of a consum. er having paid bills under a discrim. inating contract does not release the electric company from responsibility for the overcharges, and that when Such overcharges are shown the elec- tric company must refund them to the consumer.

The secretary replied that the papers in the case disclosed no motive for the resignation, and that the Department had no knowledge of Capt. Grant’s mo- ‘tive.

The others are at New York and Philadelphia.

THREE GAMES T0 END SCHOOL

le tt Marquette and Clark Teams Play for Post-Dispatch West End Pennant.

The most important series of games In the season of the Post-Dispatch Pub- lic School Baseball League was started Tuesday afternoon, when the teams from the Clark and Marquette schools faced each other at Union’ and Delmar boulevards. A crowd of 1000 persons, who were of three garhes for the championship of the West End division of the league. This was decided on by the Post-Dis- patch manager of the jeague after rep- resentatives of both teams and of the parents’ associations of the two schools had presented their sides of the contro- versy over the games. The Clarks contended that the Mar- quettes in the regular season had not played as many games as the Clark team. They maintained _ the Dozier game, which was forfeitei to the Mar- them in the two-out-of-three series. As the claims of both teams were wel! founded, the decision was rendered on this ground—the Marquettes’ defeat of the Clarks should count as a substitute game for the scheduled Dozier game. This makes the record of each team the same and both are now tied for the pennant.

Gore of Oklahoma Is Now Undergoing Treatment by Washington Oculist.

IS NOT OVER-SANGUINE

Happy if Sight Is Restored, but if Not He Will Not Take It to Heart.

WASHINGTON, June 2. — Senator Thomas P. Gore, the blind orator from Oklahoma, entered the Episcopal Eye o'clock last hight and will begin treatment to re- gain the sight which he lost nearly thir- ty years ago. “There's just a chance; that is all,” said Senator Gore. “I am not indulg- ing in any false hopes, but no harm can come of the effort, and I have con- although other ocu- I shall not grow too optimistic. If the experiment fails I will not take it to heart."’ ; It is largely through importunities of his wife that Senator Gore will under- go treatment, as he practically aban- doned all hope of regaining his sight years ago. Upon the opening of Con- ‘gress last fall he consented to visit a local oculist, who held out a slight hope. “Wait until the session is over and I have. cleaned up my work,’’ said the Senator then, “and I will. devote a few days to the effort.”’ -*Senator Gore has not allowed him- eae to. be too optimistic,” satd Mrs. Gore. “Should the expériment fail, he will not be greatly disappoint:4; should it succeed, we will be overjoyed.” As a’ result of two mishaps in youth Senator Gore became totally blind. The right eye was ruptured and torn loose from the optic nerve. Then a sediment wettled in the retina. It is to clean way this sediment that the treatment ‘fiow..to be undergone. If it can be done, Dr. Wilmer thinks it possible the sight can be restored by an opera- tion that will remove the crystalline lens. ~ VIOLET RAYS RESTORE THE SIGHT, SPECIALIST ASSERTS Opticians in Conference With Ex: pert Who Presents an Imper- tant Discovery.

SAM WEISMAN LOSES POUNDS IN 8-DAY After Visit to Doctor ,He Pro- poses to Live by Drink- ing Buttermilk. HOPING TO WIN $100 His Employe Will Lose Wager if Sam Abstains Two More Days. : 1 Sam Weisman, tailor, professional ‘ pendsman and star witness at the War- ner, Priesmeyer and Naughton bribery trials, has not eaten anything fer eight days. He says he “feels fine” and will con- tinue his fast for 25 days. No solid food has passed his lipe, he stoutly as- serts, since lart Menday, whe he made a bet with Harry Carp, one of the cut- in his shop at 1308 Olive street, that ‘could fast for 10 days. In that time his diet has consisted golely ef buttermilk and water. Ie Allowed Buttermilk. “Tt was agreed that I should have four giasses of buttermilk every day fand all the water I could drink,” said Weisman to a Post-Dispatch reporter. “Now, I was reading in the Pest-Dis- patch this afternoon that some scientific fellow says that a man can get a jag on water. Don’t you believe it. I haven't been ‘lit up’ since I started this liquid treatment. “I have drunk about a gallon of wa- ter a day. I really don’t need the wa- _ ter, but I ceuldn’t get along without the ' buttermilk. It must be a fine foed. No matter how hungry I feel, one giass of it fixes me up so that I den’t care whether I ever eat again. “T am tickled te-death. Here I have been spending money for good things to gat ever since I first had the price. Look what I could have saved if I had gone en the Fairbanks wagon years ago. “That's where I am going te win that $100 from Harry Carp.

I al- ‘ays knew my heart was big, but I dn’t know it was as stout as he said was. ‘There's only one chance for u,” he said. ‘You'll have to reduce ir weight.’ I came back to my shop feeling etty blue, and I told Harry Carp that vas going to quit eating. He laughed ad said, ‘Why, a table finisher like u couldn’t do that.’ "I'll bet you $100 I can,” I said. "You should have seen that Carp p at the bait. That was Monday ast week.

SUMMER GARDEN GIRL SLAPS MAK BEFORE CROWD - A

Now South Broadway Youth Faces Charge in Police Court.

George Gazzard of 1820 South Broad- way will be arraigned in the City Hall Police Court on a charge of gen- era' disturbance of the peace. He was arrested Monday night, after a young woman had slapped him at a summer garden. The young woman, who gave her name as Kate Cindell and refused to give her address,.was passing a table at Forest Park Highlands, where Gazzard ‘and several companions sat, whén Gazzard spoke to her. Whatever he said so enraged her that she slapped him several times. Gazzard rose, then sat down, and the young woman returned to the table where her escort sat. ‘As the young woman and her com- panion started to teave, Gazgard and the young men with him tarted to board the car with them. They objected and Gazzard'’s language caused his ar- rest. 16-YEAR-OLD BOY WILL WED 15-YEAR-OLD GIRL Rudolph Tranel of 1804 Oregon avenue

INEW DENTISTRY NOT PAINLESS, BUT LESS PAIN Inventor Explains Results of New Gold Inlay Tooth Filling Process.

—_—_— HAMMERING DIMINISHED Mere Shells Can Be Saved in Good Shape and Pulling Stopped.

The Missouri State Dental Associa- tion met at the Planters Hotel Tues- day to elect officers, hear reports and select a place for the next convention. Friends of Dr. J. B. McBride of Spring- field were -active-in supporting him for the office of president. The association listened Monday night to Dr. W. H. Taggart of Chicago, in- ventor of the new process of cast gold inlay fillings for teeth. One of the mem- bers described the new process as ‘the livest wire in the practice of dental surgery today.” : Dr. Taggart spent nine years work- ing out the process and machinery. It is one of the new discoveries for the amelioration of the sufferings of human- itv During the last year thousands of columns of newspapers and dental mag- azines have been devoted to gold inlay fillings. Save Suffcring ‘*‘With io cast gold inlay filing. ’* said Dr. Taggart, ‘‘the sufferings of humani- ty from filling decayed teeth have been reduced to a minimum. With it, the dentist can do in an hour what took him from four to eight hours to do formerly and can save the patient much suffer- ing. “The process igs so simple and so much more effective than the old proc- ess of filling teeth and saving them from the forceps, that it is safe to say that in the near future there will be no other way. I have been told by lecturers on operative dentistry in colleges that since its discovery they have been compelled’ to revise their lectures on filling the teeth, | “For several years there has been an imperfect process of making gold inlays, which consisted in burnishing a piece of metal into the cavity in a toéth, then removing it and using it for a mold into which melted gold was poured. The plug thus made was then cemented into the cavity. It was a good, but crude, process and re- quired a high grade of technical skill to make it effective. Makes a New Tooth. ‘‘My process is to prepare the cavity with no undercuts or unnecessary cut- ting away of the live tooth substance. Wax is placed in the cavity piece by piece until it is filled, and the contour of the tooth built up and the surplus carved away. “The wax plug is then carefully re- moved and a mold made from it. Gold is then melted to the boiling point and ferced into the mold made from the wax plug with compressed gases. This gives an exact reproduction of the surfaces of the cavity and the parts of the tooth that have disappeared by de- cay. The gold inlay is then soldered into place and a new tooth is the re- sult. ‘Teeth that have. become mere shells, and that formerly fell to thé ‘forceps, can now be saved. Parts jof teeth can be built up perfettly, and crowns | can be made to roots quickly and with- out a tithe of the suffering that for- merly fell to the lot of the patient, There wtil be no more _ holding the mouth epen for hours, no more rubber dams, for a large cavity can be filled as easily and quickly as a small one,, just as a large nail hole can be plugged with putty: as quickly as a small one. Not More Expensive. “It would not be an expensive pro- cess. I have told dental associations that if they would guarantee” to give the public the benefit of the saving in time in this new dentistry I would make the profession a present of the process. “As to the facility with which teeth can be filled by the gold inlay process, a patient can spend an hour today in having the cavity prepared and ® minutes tomorrow in having the filling inserted, and it is done. “Formerly it teok six to eight hours to do the same work and lots of nerve- racking drilling and pounding to get the leaf gold beaten into the cavity. That is no longer necessary. “The world is entitled to cheaper work with this process, and better teeth. There will be less pain accom- Ppnying the preparation of cavities, be- cause the grinding will be done with small wet grintstones, in place of steel burrs and the nerves of high-strung people will be saved a vast amount of agony.”’ EAT one INDICATIONS.

CALLS BANTU BEST LANGUAGE Professor Says English Will Die and Timbuctoo Be Metropolis. CHICAGO, June 2.—English may be a dead language in 4000 A.

In an article on “A Substitute for the Classics,"’ in the School Review, issued yesterday by the University of Chicago press, Prof. Scott intimates that Timbuctoo will be the world’s capital and that Bantu will be the common language.

POLICEMEN CHASE “LION” IN CEMETERY; BOY SHOWS THEM IT’S A TAME WOLF Graveyard Employes Get Worse Than a Ghost Scare From Strange Animal. CHICAGO, June 2.—A patrol wagon filled with policemen dashed out to Graceland Cemetery early ioday to cap- ture a lion reported by the gardeners to be at large in the cemetery. The cemetery employes ran when “hey ‘saw the beast, and it followed, but they beat it to the gate and locked the animal in. Armed ‘policemen patrolled the fence cutside the graveyard for two hours, waiting to catch sight of the ‘‘lion.’’ Then a small boy arrived and asked if anyone had seen a wolf. No one had, but the boy went into the cemetery and blew a tin whistle. In a moment he reappeared, leading the fearsome “‘lion,”’ which proved to

LET US HAVE ACTION. Mayor: Wells shows commendable public spirit and good sense in devising. a satisfactory plan upon which the two branches of the Municipal Assembly may unite in creating a public utility commission and in urging them to take action. The Mayor. eliminates himself as the appointive power and suggests the selection of five represeti- tative citizens by the Council and House, which would be a solution of all difficulties. ._ Prompt action is demanded now. The argu- ment in favor of action is complete and con- ‘acing.

We »them well, Unorthodox folka might go. fur- 'and fare worse.

® ted Persian priest, inevitable from his hazy antiquity, | - May partly explain his attraction for “cults,” but. Aft does not altogether explain it. Zoroaster sur- - Vives in human memory principally because: he © ‘was fun ly right in his conceptions of conduct, and his universality commends him to _ ur time and to all time, as long as right and _ Wrong shall be distinguished. Zoroaster is a respectable addition to the lares and pehates because he knew right from wrong and emphasized the distinction, and especially because he hated wrong. Evil he defined as a bad egg in contrast to the principle of good, and, by | the way, he named the bad egg “Ahriman,” which is phonetically apt and suggestive, to say the least. ‘Bverywhere, as in painideting and finance, the jad egg remains the source of trouble today, as it was in Zoroaster’s day; and enmity to the bad eg@ is @ good, practical, business-like, common- _ géfife religion even if it is manifested in seances ahd incantations in a minor key. il ie = FF | Mr. Cimdon narrowly escaped arrest for ex- the speed limit as he rode out of Wash- of | fm that automobile.

If the trade union idea of the Scott County lawyers is adopted by the profession generally the societies organised to fight the labor unions will have to fight harder than ever.

For three years the excess of the cost of having the city’s printing published in a German newspaper over the cost of having it published in an English néwepaper has been $20,- 761.386. This excess was paid for the same service tn a newspaper with leas circulation

||} and for only a small portion of the popula- tion. It represents the grab of a German newspaper combine which this year is at- tempting to force the price to 7 cents a line, two and a half times as much as an English newspaper asks for the same service. Not only should this attempted grab be defeated, but the nature of the conspiracy entered into by the newspaper combine to plunder the city should be laid bare. —o-e &———__—_—_—_____ PRACTICAL BUSINESS OPTIMISM. The campaign in behalf of prosperity took practical form June 1 when St. Louis firms re- employed several thousand men who had been suspended during the stringency. Similar move- ments in other centers of industries are reported, all pointing to a revival of healthy business ac- tivity. New orders are coming in aggregating many millions of dollars, which denote a wide- spread confidence in the future and a determina- tion to bring the level of industry up to that of wholesome prosperity. This is a beginning, which ig often more than half the battle. The National Prosperity Associa- tion has worked hard since the first of May to enlist the co-operation of the business interests of the country, and it has succeeded. The wheels are moving, and moving in the right direction. A rational practical optimism of this kind wins because it deserves to win. Business never re- vives itself. It is revived by the energetic efforts of an optimistic spirit, which always sees a profit in such, efforts. Proceeding along lines of hope rather than fear, business men meet a ready re- sponse and industrial activity follows the appli- cation of hopeful energy, which, after aH;-is just the method of manly good sense. In short, the way to resume is to resume, and the merit of this prosperity movement is that its organizers have applied this simple, homely rule. Of course betterment has been visible in many quarters for several weeks. But the instances have been isolated results of conditions prevail- ing in the industries affected. This movement concentrated the attention of the whole business community all over the-country, and organized optimism for a definite practical purpose. . The light -of publicity was set blazing and in that light, let us hope, we shall see that hard times exist only in the fears of men who are too easily discouraged. yAt any rate, what is gained by tunis organized effort is plainly to be seen, and we are justified in accepting it as evidence of conditions which en- sure good times if business men will take ad- vantage of. them. The emergency currency bill which became a law Saturday last does not meet the requirements of a permanent currency system, but at least it makes a@ money scarcity impossible, for banks will not have to resort to doubtful methods to meet demands for money. That source of danger being removed, there is no obstacle to a complete and speedy restoration of sound prosperity. It is only necessary to continue what has been so well be- gun. In his munificent gift + the Skin and Cancer Hospital, Mr. George D. Barnard has not only performed an act of benevolence which promises rich benefits to sufferers, but he has set an ad- mirable example of liberality and of wise use of wealth to other St. Louisans who have prospered with the — of the city. -., >» » peo allt. MR. ROOSEVELT AND THE REACTIONARIES There is nothing improbable in the report that the reactionaries have persuaded or frightened Mr. Roosevelt into an acquiescence in their cam- paign arrangements. It is strange that he and the Tennis Cabinet ever imagined the old gang would sit quiet, let him foist his version of Re- publican principles upén the party, and organize the convention on the pattern of his own personal political creed. If the published program is carrie: out Mr. Taft, if nominated, will have to give hostages for good behavior before he can get the support he needs to carry him into the White House. With Hopkins as chairman of the Committee on Reso- lutions we may be sure that document will not ring with approval of the Roosevelt anti-trust anti-malefactor deeds. The interests are behinu the Resolutions Committee and every plank of the platform will be trimmed to suit.’ Senator Crane as chairman of the National Committee is a nice gentleman, but he resembles Mr. Roose- veit and Mr. Harriman in one particular-—he is practical, and there is no, reason to doubt he will be willing to listen when the beneficiaries of monopoly and special privilege tell him how to win the election. With Burrows as Temporary Chairman and Fairbanks as candidate for the Vice-Presidency, the fine work will be complete. A candidate hampered by guch associations will not make many promises to carry on the work of Theodore Roosevelt. A eandidate is known by the the

pany he keeps. Can there be any doubt of

It would be very in- teresting and instructive, and millions who are un- able to go to the convention halls would like very much to see it. And other notable gatherings should be reproduced. E PLURIBUS UNUM. Cut Weeds on Vacant Lots. To the Editer of the Post-Dispatch. The rainy weather we have had was good for the weeds on vacant lots. The city ordinance compels owners to keep the weeds less than a foot high; but the enforcement of the ordinance is very lax. Weeds are now over a foet high on all vacant lots and in many places three to four feet high. They keep the ground wet and help to produce disease-bearing in- sects. Urge the police to begin NOW and have the owners cut them before the city’s health is seri- ously affected. MEDICUS. ee ae ee Liberty and Justice. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. Personal] liberty is an excellent thing, and it is no wonder that American or German-American crowds cheer any orator who talks it. The ques- tion is, can we, with al! the personal liberty we want, save the women and children from the un- speakable horrors of inebriety? We want liberty, and we also want the drink evil overcome. Women and children have rights which must not be over- léeoked, even in the sacted cause of liberty. Every voter will have to settle this matter with his con- science, and he should be sure that he settles it right. There is no torment like that of an awakened conscience. MATTER OF FACT. Taft and Grant. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. I would not vote for Taft. I newer voted for Gen. Grant and would not vote for him if he were allve today and a candidate for the presidency, but I do not see why Taft's statement in regard to Gen. Grant’s habits should influence any voter against him. If the statement is true, how absurd it is to make a fdss about it! If Grant resigned from the army to escape courtmartial for intoxica- tion, and afterwards became sober enough to suc- ceed in war and to gain the presidency, why, so much more credit to him. Overcoming the drink habit is extremely difficult and requires great force of will. What a shame that any man should be con- demned for uttering just a little bit of truth. Must we muzzle all truth-tellers? Must we swallow only lies al] the time? The truth should be known about every public man, even though he may be 4 public idol. FIAT JUSTITIA. “Oliver” in His Own Nefence. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. Thank you very much for coming to my defense. When I wrote the letter cencerning Forest Park as an, automobile speedway and the children Lbexpress- ed the exact opposite of my real views and thought that everyone would understand that - spoke iron- i@ally. I will never do it again. The Mayor and Mr. Scanlan have expressed with serious intention the thought I put ironically. They want the park “preserved,” and for the few. I want the park used, and by the many. The children, in no matter what great numbers, wil] nét damage the park as seriously as did the World’s Fair, and the benefit to the city through their free use of the wide play spaces there will be as great as was that resulting from the Fair. Open the park to the people, all the people, and restrict the speeding automobile. OLIVER.

California. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. William Robson is the first truthful person I have heard on the subject of California. ‘‘Go to the land of sunshine and flowers; only $30 one way via X. Y. 7. R. R.” Veni! vidi! viel! My desire for a land of wonders. I also found the flowers and sunshine, I also found the whole town. willing to sell out at @ sacrifice. But I was from Missouri and had them “show me” at $47.50 ticket to pay for the experi- ence and my way home. The roses, palms and red sand do not make up for the thousands of starv- ing home-seekers who haven't and can't get the money to return home. I met one man-out there who told me it was the same in Frisco as Los Angeles and the people were all between the desert and the deep sea. The only rich people are the grandchildren of the forty-niners. If you have a little bunch of money that you don’t care about, go to California. It-is. worth seeing. If you need your money, beware. It means death and starva- tion for the wage earner. CELESTE’S SISTER. THE PASSWORD OF PEACE. From the Washington Post. At Belleville, Ill., they have just incorporated @ Sc hweitzerischesscharfschuetzengeselischaftunterstu- etzungsverein. The member who geéts home late at night and can tell his wife that he was attending a meeting of that organization should be above sus- picion.

STONE’S ENEMIES. From the Columbia (Mo.) Herald. Some folks are saying that the large number of enemies Senator Stone has made only proves that he has been accomplishing things. Really! We suppose these same folks would tell us then that good old Senator Cockrell, who made féw enemies in either party, was a nonenity in political life and never accomplished anything worth mentioning because he nevet/ made any enemies. This logic is nearly as convineiag as the (old gang) wail over the Post- sae ( ) CRIMINAL OFFICIAL NEGLECT. Froit~the Indianapolis News. We all remember the terrible Iroquois Theater fire in Chicago, We remember likewise the stringent building laws for theaters that were afterward adopted—in Chicago in particular, and generally in many ci of the country, including our own. The Iroquois fire was less than four years and a half ago. Yet today the Chicago newspapers tell us that 2% of the principal theaters in that city are violating the theater laws. GAMBLING IN GRAIN.

Many of the things which would {© render our state truly Utopian are discredited in yous sight because they have been habitually rejected. You have that fatuous faith in human wisdom which laughs at woman suffrage, municipal ownership, socialism and trial marriage because, like Bryanus, they have never won. Now, is it not true that real hap- piness in the state is procurable only by means of a wise and ‘untrammeled exercise of the ballot? That is true, of course. Where we are the makers of our own political fortunes, the remedy for all evils lies in the ballot. SOCRATES: And we have these evils because the men do not make the most of their privilege to vote.

TESS, THE WAITRESS, ON TIPS. ' 7% The More Custpinors Give the Less the Boss Pays. Reported for the Post-Dispatch BY JOSEPH A. FLYNN.

REMARKED to Tess at dinner last evening, after the first scramble for the tomatoes: ‘‘May I inquire where you stand on the all important ques- tion of tips?”’ “Where I always stood,”’ she replied, her pretty features contorted with pain from wearing a new pair of black button ties. “Put me right down for one holding a small ax behind my back for this tip business. You never see me pushing out a nervous mit, all ready to say ‘Thank you.’ Lizzie holds out both hands arid a dollar’s worth of laughing gas for every nickel, but not | yours truly. ‘ “Once upon a time I got a good per every week, and was as satisfied as a gerry with the first rag doll. One daya settler got absentminded at finding ‘two real clams in“the chowder, and handed me a new dime; and Mrs. Starve- em witnessed the crime.

A wife may possess or lack almost 6 quality provided she is lovable. That she must be.” Mary Stuart Cutting—who may be called the “philosopher of the r since her ‘Little Stories of Married Life,” and her new novel, ‘The W deal mainly with the problems and the romance of double harness—was for lating at my request her views on her interesting and chosen theme. > ting is a widow and the mother of five children. e Her new book, “The Wayfarers,” tells the story of a wife, Lois who through selfishness and a morbid tendency to fancy herself injure came very near losing her woman's kingdom, ‘‘home and the heart of her band.’ Lois, however, through a realization of her morbidness and a. “What,” I had asked her, “is the quality most attractive in a wife?

They thought her uninteresting, lazy, many : tive things. And then one day her husband, by a chance phrase, explained it, a : “‘*Do you know,’ he said, ‘in all these years I have never once left my : in the morning without a pang!’ i me “Wives,’ continued Mrs. Cutting, “think too much of what their bands should do; not enough of what they themselves should do. After 4 the wife is the homemaker. If there is a guif yawning between husband. wife it is the latter generally who must bridge it. ‘Many people are content to get very little out of marriage, but the tem dency of the times is, I believe, an earnest effort to extract the best from it. To do this requires unselfishness and devotion. Nothing cah be gained in | riage by selfishness. “It is difficult to generalize about marriage. We may say mutual ™ pathies, similarity of tastes, etc., make a happy home, but that means very little. Some husbands like to discuss their business with thelr wives; dislike being questioned about it and say they don't care to talk ‘shop’ wiel they go home. But all men respond to cheerfulness and devotion. It is tm possible to be too devoted—ywhen one loves. er “Women talk to their husbands too much about their own troubles. her are many disagreeable things that a man takes as part of the day’s work am never thinks of mentioning.

@ MARRIAGE—A SONG WITHOUT WORDS. . BY HELEN OLDFIELD.

EORGBE ELIOT tell us that marriage must invariably be a relation either (5 of sympathy or conquest, a saying which is in great part true. It cannot be denied that much matrimonial discord arises from the fact that both husband and wife are set upon having their own way; moreover, are aggress- ive about it. * “They go to church and say “I will,’”’ then before long one-or the other says “IT won't,” and the trouble begins. There is an old story of one Irishman who asked another why it was that he and his wife were never of the same mind about anything. “Sure,”’ said Pat; ‘“‘it's mistaken ye are. The matter is that we are both. of one mind; she wants to be master and so do I,” The first quarrel between married people is much to be deprecated and might easily be prevented by the exercise of ordinary politeness between the two who have sworn to love and honor.each the other. The necessary famil- larity of the marital relationship is apt, unless caution is observed, to produce more or less disregard of the little courtesies of life, which cannot but make trouble. Because people see things differently is no good reason why they. should quarrel; a little forbearance, a little good humor, will usually set matters right; at any rate, there ought to be no struggle as to which shall give up. There is nothing, except a genuine question of conscience, which is worth a quarrel between man and wife. There are those who profess or believe that an occasional disagreement, not of a serious nature, adds a certain piquancy to married life; still, it is best to: beware thereof, lest it develop into nagging and struggling for the last word, which has been well defined as the most dangerous of infernal machines. Hus- band and wife should no more strive for it than they would fight for the pos- session of a lighted bomb. And supposing one gets it, what good would it do? There are always more and more last words, some of them cruel as blows. tm

OME of the inventions of the insane are of scientific value.

EB BANK STOCK.

el ANK and trust company stocks possess one characteristic in far higher degree than other classes of k. Owing to the general practice of self-reguiated banking institutions to distribute only about one-half their earnings in dividends and to credit the rest to surplus account, a steady rise is assured in the book value of the stock. No other class of stock pos- hesses quite the same promise of ap- preciation in value..

HE girl who marries for money is bought; but the girl who marries for love T is sold. ne There is something about one cocktail that makes a man want an- other the moment he has swallowed it; and there is something about one wom- an that makes a man want another the moment he has marriéd her. Rich men and their wives are soon parted; matrimony plus money has such a way of developing into alimony. A man plays his part in his first love affair as an actor plays his first star role, with fire-and enthusiasm, but without poise or method; later he becomes so technical that he can make his pretty speeches backward scents a single thrill. A woman can get so used to that sort of think that she would feel almost

It is probably true that the tentative selection of +airbanks is not the result of any hasty judgment. It is probably true that the friends of Mr. Fairbanks have been in pretty close touch with Mr. Taft for some time and that the re- sult of these negotiations and confer- ences has been the conclusion of Mr. Taft that the Indiana statesman will add more strength to the Republican ticket than any other man.

Me-Up. HAROLD RUNYAN, CHAMPION RUNAWAY, IS GONE AGAIN Wanderlust Calls 6-Year-Old to the Open Road After Season in Newsboys’ Home. Harold Runyan’s gone again. He is the 6-year-old champion runaway of St. Louis and probably has a record ‘that can’t be beaten anywhtre. He has run away so often that the police and: his mother have lost count, but the num- ber is between 60 and 70. Harold ran away three times last week. Once he was found on Eads Bridge, an intent observer of river craft. Again he was found gravely watching the crowds at the nickelodeons around Fourteenth and Market streets. Again, watching the switching engines in the Mill Creek Valley. Harold’s widowed mother, who lives at 1931 Olive street, can ill afford to spend carfare hunting him and taking him home, and, wearying at last, turned him over Saturday to the police. On the suggestion of Chief Creecy, Judge Wil- liams of the Juvenile Court sent the boy to Father Dunne’s Newsboys’ Home at Garrison and Washington avenues. Harold was there Monday, having 4 great time with the other boys. Monday night he wasn’t there. Now the police are hunting for him again.

MANY CHILDREN, NO SCHOOLS, IN UNCLAD COLONY Clothes Will Be Absent, Hair Long, in Simple Life Settlement.

STATE TO MATE PAIRS

If Children Are Not Up to Standard, They Will Be Remated.

By Leased Wire from the New York Bureau of the Post-Dispatch. NEW YORK, June 2.—A “simple life paradise colony,’’ where men, women and children will go about unclad, and where the men are never to cut hair or beards, will be started this fall near Vera Cruz, Mexico, by Gustaf H. Ander, well known in Socialist and anarchistic circles, who lives at 232 Rast Seventy- sixth street. More: than persons have become his followers, and have promised to sail for the tropics when he does. He is waiting to get 500. “When we get down te Mexico, we will get rid of all the clothes ‘that we can,’ Mr. Ander said in his home to- day. “Of ceurse, some of us will hold out a few bits, naturally, but before long, when we have become pure in heart, we will have no need for even fig leaves.”’ 3 For over two years Ander has allowed his hair to grow, so that he shall be “supremely fit’? for the colony. His beard falls to his waist, and his hair, when unrolled, to the middle of his back, No Barber Shop There. “All our men will refuse to cut either their beard or their locks,” he contin- ued. “It is au insult te the laws of na- ture to do otherwise. Hair is fer some use. Otherwise, why was it given to us? “I have concluded that hair must be in an intangible way useful in communicat- ing with the spirits around us. At all events, a lot of time is wasted in cutting hair. I presume that the women, by not braiding their hair, will save a lot of time, too. “There will be no cooking to speak of. We will live on nuts and fruits. When fruits are not in season, we will have to eat vegetables. But a student of na- ture must see that man was never meant to use anything but produce from trees. Our walking upright shows that. “In fact, life will be a dream instead of a nightmare. There'll be no cooking and little washing. All the women wil] have to do 1s love and sleep. “State” to Make Marriages, “The State, which is a poor name for the colonists’ official assemblage, wil! decide who are fit to be man and wife. Men and women will be united with a view to the finest child. If the off- spring does not turn out as it should, then the parents will be remated. “There will be no limit on children in this colony. Each couple will have ss» many babies as they want. The babies won't have to be fed or clothed any more than pigs, so they won’t be much trouble. We won't even have to bother to name the children. What good is a name, except in competition and busi- ness? We won't have any books to keep. “Wducation, outside of that which con- cerns the beautiful in life, will be dis- regarded. What does education do now but teach one to go out and beat the other man? Chance to Sober Up. “Tobacco and liquor may be used, if any one wishes them. But people will become so clean lived when they get close to nature that they'll not want stimulants. ‘T am making an attempt to get some inebriate millionaires to go down South with us and become respectable human beings.” 4 , BUSINESS NOTICES. chapped skin 25c.
