ALLIES CONFER IN EFFORTS T0 DEFEAT BRYAN i, itn Delegates Are Being Polled in Denver by Backers of Gray and Johnson. - 647 ._ VOTES FOR BRYAN

These Are Conceded but T hey Are 25 Less Than Needed for Choice. —_— REFUSE SECOND PLACE

Neither of the Leading Op- ponents Will Run for Vice-President.

DENVER, Colo., July 3.—Backers of Gov. Johnson and Judge Gray are now devoting their energies to prevent the. * nomination of William J. Bryan on the first ballot. They assert that if they do this that scores of delegates instruct- ed for the Nebraskan will feel that they have carried out their instructions by voting for him once and will gladly go to another candidate. The managers of the booms of the allies have held several conferences and are unitedIn the effort to prevent Bry- an’s nomination. They are apparently more anxious to defeat him than to win for themselves. They are polling every delegate who arrives in Denver and they are unanimous in say- me that Bryan will not have the 672 votes needed for a nomination. Anti-Bryan men today gave out the first definite figures regarding the man- ner in which Bryan's nomination is to be prevented. They ¢laim 361 votes will “be cast’ against ‘him on the first baliot, which will leave him 647, or 25 less than he needs. . The figures prepared by anti-Bryan men give the following votes as Op- posed to him on the first ballot: Georgia Loulsiana vw claims are don tisielant upon a Pennsylvania delegation enforcing the unit rule. Of the 68 delegates from that State 4 are uninstructed, while 20 are instructed for Bryan. The majority, it is said, will decide to enforce the unit rule so that the entire 68 votes will be cast against Bryan. The Bryan people scoff at these figures and deciare that at least 700 votes will be cast for Bryan on the first ballot. But they made less noise yesterday and fewer predictions than at any previous time since the national committeemaen and delegates began to arrive. The pro- moter: of Johnson and Gray are not dis- couraged, and assert that their forces will receive several important accessions before the balloting begins. Claims Tammany for Bryan. According to Bird 8. Cola, Tammany liall has surrendered to Bryan. The New York State vote will be cast, Mr. Coler declares, for the Commoner and New York will vote for any candidate for vice-president that Nebraska wants. “When we nominated Parker four years ago,’ Coler said, “Nebraska in- vited us to name the vice-presidential candidate and we did so. We will re- turn the compliment this year, and our preference is first, Judge George Gray; second, Charles A. Towne.” Many Telegrams for Johnson. Theodore M. Kappen of the Johnson forces said that hundreds of telegrams and letters have been received during the day from Democrats in various parts of the country, urging the John- son men to fight to the last minute - There is no present indication of a se- rious break from the Bryan : forces. Pretty nearly every man who cagne to town today seemed firmly of the opin- jon that Bryan would be nominated on the first ballot, and pretty nearly ey- ery one of them hoped otherwise. Bryan pictures are everywhere. Ag. sisting Dahiman, the cowboy Mayor of Imaha, who was sent ahead to start she ball rolling for Bryan, are sever- «l1 hundred other enthusiastic rooters for the “sage of Lincoln." They overruy the hotel corridors and dominate ever, discussion concerning the presidency and the platform. The Johnson and Gray people opened heir headquarters yesterday, ot resort to the hurrah methods o he Bryanites. The Gray people made an attempt to have portraits of their candidates displayed on the billboards, but were refused permission, Portraits of the Delaware juriat are displayed in the corridors of the Savoy, where his headquarters are, and at the Brown Palace, where the National Committee ‘bas established itself, There are tew _ tohnson photogtaphs on view, " Beth Refuse Second Piace. The Gray-Johnson folks ignored en- rely the discussion concerning the vice- cy encouraged by the Bryanites. but did], O'REILLY WINS: WELLS ABANDONS CHT ON HN Mayor Considers Special Re- port Insufficient Grounds for Action.

— IS. CALLED CARELESS Commission Finds Basis for Repro@é; but None for Formal Charges.

Mayor Wells has abandoned his inten- tion of investigating the official acts of Andrew J. O'Reilly, president of the Board of Public Improvements, with a view to removing O'Reilly from office. From a reliable source of information at the City Hall it was learned Friday that O'Reilly will not have to defend his tenure of the office during his term, which ends in April, 1909. The end of the Mayor’s term will come at the same time, * The Mayor recently appointed a com- mittee to make a preliminary inquiry. The Mayor has had the report of the committee for two weeks, but refuses to make public its contents. From per- sons with whom the Mayor has dis- cussed the matter it has been learned that the Mayor does not regard the commission's finding as_ sufficient grounds on which to proceed against O’ Reilly. The report of the three commission- ers finds grounds for censuring O'Reilly, but makes no charges against him. It sets out specific instances wherein he appears to,have been “‘careless.’’ O’Rellly Wasn’t Afraid. When asked about the subject Friday, Mayor Wells replied: “I have no information to give out.”’ Président O’Reilly—satd: “I never have been afraid of the in- vestigation, and I have never acted as if I was, have I? I have undertaken to conduct my department up to the mark. Sometimes my subordinates may have overstepped their authority, but they were promptly disciplined when they did. They never met with my approval when they did. The same thing might happen in the Mayor's office.”’ FISHERMAN CATCHES A -WATCH, ON TIME TO SECOND This Is No Nature Fake—Police Await Appearance of Owner. An open-faced gold watch, running on time to the second, is the biggest catch of the season by local fisher-folk, and the story is no nature fake. Mrs. Louisa Overy, 420 Blase avenue, hooked the watch at the foot of Hum- boldt street, while fishing Thursday, and notified the police. It will be turned over to the owner if he oan identify it by the case and works numbers. It is a 17-jewel timepiece, with a fob and buckle attached. The police believe the watch was lost by some fisherman or by some passen- ger on an en steamer. DEMOCRATIC PLATFORM To BE 3 FEET LONG—JUST BIG ENOUGH TO HOLD BRYAN THE TEMPERATURES, Midnight

WYOMING GOVERNOR’S WIFE REIGNING POLITICAL BELLE

vealed by William y= * i, Alin ail Romance of Mrs. Oitioene’ s Betrothal Was Re- J. Bryan Himself, Southern- Western Belle Asserts.

Special to the Post-Dispatch. DENVER, Colo., Juty 3.—While the Democratic National Convention is to be held in a state which is filled from one end .to the other with suffragettes, the women who will greet the delegates, as well as those who are coming with them, will not be of the type that is associated generally with the work. Act- ively engaged in the reception and en- tertainmert of the guests will be women who are as beautiful as they are clever, while othets whose fame has been her- alded across two continents will watch the work of the delegates from boxes which have been reserved for the dis- tinguished guests. One who will attract much attention is Mrs. John E. Osborne, wife of the Governor of Wyoming and member of the Committee on Arrangements, which has been making plans for the conven- tion. Home Is in Rawlins, Wyo. In addition to being the most beau- tiful woman at the convention, Mrs. Os- borne is also a bride. “I'm from Rawlins, Wyoming,” she tells those who ask where she lives. That is not strictly true, although it may be when the convention is over. Mr. Osborne has made a fortune raising sheep in Wyoming, but his bride has never seen the city yet. Immediately after their marriage, her husband be came so busy with national politics that he has not yet had time to take her to the place where she will in the fu- ture make her home. Although Mrs. Csborne is loyal to the West, sho really is a Southern giri, having been born and raised in Prince- ton, Ky. Slight, a pronounced brunette, she is vivacious and thoroughly charm- ing. It is no less a person than Wil* liam J. Bryan that she blames for be- traying the secret of her love affair in her home toWn. Hew Bryan Let It Oat, “We were , keeping the news of our engagement eccret,’ * said Mrs. Osborne, “but Mr. Osborne had told some of his most intimate friends. Mr. Bryan was going to pass through Princeton one day while on one of his lecture tours and he wrote to a man he knew to ‘firma that girl John Osborne was going to marry and bring her to the depot,’ so that he could meet her. That was the end of our secret in Princeton.”’ Tt is said that the best-dressed woman at the convention will be Mrs. Norman E. Mack, wife of the Buffale commit- teeman. She arrived a few days ago and

| wonderful tales are told of the number }

of times she changes her gowns each day. Another visitor who will attract at- tention _is Mrs. James E. Dahlman, wife of the *“‘Cowboy Mayor’ of Omaha, and one of the loudest shouters in the Bryan crowd. She is quite unlike her husband, who is strenuous, and with her silvery white hair and fine features looks de- cidedly aristocratic. Mra. Leavitt Is Active, Mrs. Ruth Bryan Leavitt, daughter of The Commoner, will play a conspicuous part in the proceedings. As member of a local Democratic woman’s club she has been placed at the head of the com- mittees which will entertain the visiting women, and because of her family as well as her personal charm, will be much sought after. Two notable young women who will content themselves with looking on at the proceedings will be Mrs. Alice Roose- velt Longworth and Miss Evelyn Walsh. The President's daughter will be the guest of Miss Walsh during the conven- tion at the magnificent country heme owned by Thomas F.*Walsh on the out- skirts of Denver. ‘“‘Ned” McLean, son of John R. Mce- Lean of the Cincinnat! Enquirer, is to be married to Miss Walsh. The wed- ding date has not been announced. Mr. McLean is a visitor at the Walsh home and is to be one of a house party there. Miss Waish always has a train of ad- mirers, for she is not only heiress to millions, but also a beauty of the dark, Irish type. Colorado Women in Limelight. Colorado women will claim their share of attention. One of them is Mrs, Uar- rie St. Clair Napier, president of the Bryan Club, asd active In politics. She ia a tall, handsome blonde and doesn't act in the least like the Woman polit}- clan one imagines. Much like her in appearance is Mrs. C. W. Franklin, wife of the man who has been at the head of the Denver committee arrang- ing for the convention. Roger C. Sullivan is here with his family and his two handsome - daugh- ters have had no lack of attention. The colony of wemocratic women have been having a particularly good time since their arrival, taking trips to the mountains and resorts as guests of the local women and they will be elaborate. ly entertained during the convention.

Many women, in 4 frantic effort to escape when the pyro- technics began exploding, ran into the basement, and those found dead were huddled against a door which afforded the only exit, their twisted bodies show- ing their last pitiful efforts for life.

Five firemen were hurt by glass while fighting the flames. A girl clerk on the first floor was demonstrating the patent torch when the fireworks counter caught fire. Thick black smoke, billowed by the explo- siens of giant firecrackers, rolied to the ceiling, and the acrid smell of burned powder spread through the store. Panic followed instantly. Women anc children fought with one another to be first to reach the exits at the front and rear. The girls penned within the boxlike fireworks counter could not escape, and no one stopped to aid them. With the hiss and sharp reports of the fireworks about them, they dropped to the floor dinder the counter, shrieking for aid. When, by united strength, these girls succeeded in breaking out under a coun- ter, they were so blinded by smoke and terrified by the confusion about them that they rushed into the basement to meet death there. Elevator Makes One Trip. Henry Miller, an employe in the store, ran hastily to the top floor, shouting at each stair landing to the girls to come out of the store. He threw open the windows, which swung on 4 pivot in the center. The elevator made one trip to the bottom of the shaft, and those in it escaped. Those left on the upper floors gathered at the windows and shouted to those below: “Watch out! We are going to jump.” “Don't,” they were warned. “Wait un- til the firemen come.” In spite of this warning, a score did jump. The fire nets were slow in ar- riving. When they reached the scene 1% were saved by jumping into them or descending on ladders the fireme: raised. No Fatalities, First Report. For\two hours it was not known that a life had been lost.

A good-lqoking young woman, said to be Hapgood’s bookkeeper, was taken to headquarters and questioned, but was not arrested. All the bobdks and ac- counts were seized. There are five corn- plainants against Hapgood and Kilby, who unite in saying the pair had got over $32,000 from them ‘“‘by trick and device."” The complainants are: William J. Witte, a manufacturer of metal specialties at 31 Park Row, who said he lost $13,500. Walter H. Paige of 561 West 144th street, who said he lost $2500. Charies G.

When Edward A. Fisher, a North St. Louis baseball player, heard the band play “Love Me and the World Is Mine”’ in O’Fallon Park, he turned to Miss Julia Selzer, who was at his side, and repeated the title of the band’s se- lection. Miss Selzer replied that the world was his, or words to that effect. That was Wednesday evening. Thurs- day they took an electric car to Clay- ton and were married. The bride is the 22-year-old daugh- ter of Julius Selzer, a wagon manufac- turer. Their home is at 2139 Fair ave- nue. The bridégroom is a son of Frank Fisher, treasurer of the Western Furni- ture Co. Their home Ys at 1949 Alice avenue, There was no objection to the wedding from either family. None of the friends of the young couple had suspected they were in love. Fisher is a bookkeeper for his fath- er’s firm, but is better known in the North End as a pitcher. As “Blondy’’ Fisher he won fame for his work in shutting out the Nadjas in a city league game last summer, when he pitched for the North Ends. Miss Selzer saw his triumph on that day.

The arrival of the East St. Louis Commercial Club at 6:30 p. m. and the parade around the grounds, headed by a brass band, was the signal for the real merrymaking. . The members of the Ladies’ Auxiliary in charge of the carnival are unable to calculate the proceeds, but it is esti- mated that $2000 will be cleared for the Henrietta Hospital fund. The theater was crowded at each of the three peg- formance. The Gypsy Camp and Mys- tery Booth attracted attention.

MRS. DELANY WED DESPITE MOTHER Elopement to Clayton Follows a Week After Divorce Decree.

“>

LOST HIS FIRST SUIT Mrs. Bowland Didn’t Like Prospect of Becoming Mother-in-Law.

Charles Siedentop and Mrs. Elizabeth Delany, by eloping to Clayton, have won a two years’ fight with Mrs. E. J. Bowland, mother of Mrs. Delany, who made strenuous efforts to keep them apart. They were married by Poetic Justice Werremeyer. Siedentop obtained a divorce in the Circuit Court a week ago despite the efforts of Mrs. Bowland to prevent it. Her reason for doing this, she said, was that she believed that if Siedentop obtained his divorce he would marry her daughter. This match was so dis- tasteful for her that she employed an attorney to contest Siedentop’s divorce suit, although his wife offered no de- fense. Fought Two Suits. It was Mrs. Bowland’s second attempt to thwart the divorce. The first time, two years ago, she was successful, but Siedentop filed another petition. Siedentop lives at 3856 St. Ferdinand avenue and Mrs. Delany has »beén boarding at 3855 Garfield avenue. They left their homes Thursday morn- ing and have not returned. At Mrs. De- lany’s boarding place it was said she took a bundle of clothing and a valise and said she couldn’t tell when she would be back. Mrs. Rowland welcomed Siedentop as a suitor for her daughter’s hand, she testified in court, until she found he had a wife from whom he was separat- ed.

MacManus, Mrs. Bowland's attorney, asked Siedentop if it was his intention to marry Mrs. Delaney as soon as he was free to do so. “No,” he said. “I have not seen her for 15 months. She told me that she was engaged to a policeman.” “Tl saw him leaving the door of my daughter’s home only a few days ago,” testified Mrs. Bowland. The court stenographer was instruct- ed to transcribe Siedentop’s testimony and send it to the grand jury. At Siedentop’s home Friday a woman, who said she was his sister, said she did not know when he would be back. “T don’t know anything about his get- ting married,’’ she said. ‘‘He didn’t tell me where he was going when he left home yesterday morning. In his petition for divorce Siedentop said his wife deserted him because he was too tired at night to go out to dances with her. He is a carpenter. Mrs. Delaney was the widow of a po- liceman. She is 27 years old. ‘ SUCKING GASOLINE FROM CAN STOPPER CAUSES CHILD'S DEATH Mother Found Child Unconscious ‘on Floor With Rag Clutched in It’s Hand.

TAKEN TO - HOSPITAL Husband Is Nearly Overcome Before. He Can Be Aroused. @rs. Ida May Wolff, now in the City Hospital for observation, attempted to asphyxiate herself and the other mem- bers of her family early Friday by get- ting up and closing all the doors and windows in the house at 1806 Cass ave- nue and then opening the gas jets. Just in time to save the lives of five people, Mrs. Robert Wolff,-a. sister-in- law, awoke. The house was filled with gas fumes and some of the members of the family were partly overcome. Mrs. Ida May Wolff is the wife of Anthony Wolff, a barber. She has made several attempts to commit suicide in the last few days.

MURAT HALSTEAD, EDITOR | AND AUTHOR, IS DEAD Was Widely Known as a Journalist for More Than Half a Century. CINCINNATI, July 3—Murat Hal- stead, one of the leaders in American journalism for over half a century, and widely known as a newspaper and mag- azine writer, died at his home in this city today. At his bed were his wife, his son Robert and one daughter, Mrs. Arthur Stem. Mr. Halstead had been ailing for sev- eral months, and yesterday suffered from cerebral hemorrhage. Mr. Halstead was one of the great editors of the last half of the nineteenth century and one of the strongest trib- utes to his incisiveness as a writer was in 1889, when his nomination by President Harrison to be American Min- ister to Germany was rejected by the United States Senate because of arti- cles he had publgshed charging corrup- tion to some members of that body. He was a native of Butler County, Ohio. During the last 10 years he has figured largely as a magazine and spe- cial newspaper writer, besides issuing a number of books on current matters of historical interest. in the Civil War Mr. Halstead personally reported many battles, being rated as a war corre- spondent of the first class, and later, during the Franco-German War, and also in the Spanish-American War, he added to his reputation in that line. For 50 years he attended and reported all Republican national conventions, and in 1860 he was the only newspaper man who reported all the varied political conventions of that year.

GET $1 A WORD FAR HIS STORIES Vocabulary Will Be His Chief Weapon When He Invades Africa. EDITORS CRY FOR IT Competing for Even the “Shortest and Ugliest” Word He Can Write.

OYSTER BAY, N. Y., July 3. OW’D you like to put your vocab- H ulary on paper at $1 a word? The editors of the Saturday Evening Post and McClure’s Magazine have bid that price for President Roose- velt’s prospective stories on his hunt- ing experiences in Africa, and they have offered also to pay his expenses while he is gathering the ‘material. Collier’s Weekly and Scribner’s Magazine are said to have offered more than §1 a word. ; The President’s admirers have always contended that his private collection of words is the fan- clest thing of the kind in existence. Twenty-five thou- sand have gone into one message to Congress, while if he had been able to market his correspondence with Friend Bel- lamy and Dear Maria Storer at the present quota- tion of a “case” a word, he could have bought Afri- cal brought the game to Sagamore Hill and shot it from the back porch at his own convenience. The editors who are competing with one another to make Roosevelt a mil- lionaire, offer the same price for a short word—even the shorter and uglier one

to which the President has often re- ferred—as for a long one; and if he should get back into his old habit of resurrecting nouns and adjectives never heard of by anyone excepting the men who read proof on the original diction- ary, they must pay for them, too. And that’s no methylbenzoinethoxyethytetra- hydropyrdinecarboxylate—which is the medical word for cocaine—dream. If the President accepts the dollar proposition, his African junket will be more a quest for little words than for big game. Ev- erything he kills will mean a de- scriptive article at $1 a word, and when he “goes out on a story,” with Kermit along to ‘“‘do features,’’ like carrying the ammunition, a conversation like this may occur: Kermit: “Here comes a herd of hippopotimi, pop.’’ T. R.: ‘Let ’em go. Look for something with a hyphen in it. No money in killing

“ITS / ‘Two , YGED ANTE TWO MORE WORDS TWO MORE DOLLARS one word at a time.” Kermit: ‘Well, there’s a three-horned spotted antelope coming around the cor- T. R.: “That’s better. Four words, four dollars. Bang! Look up the scientific name and see if we can’t make another dollar on her. What's that thing climb- ing a tree?’ Kermit: “Looks ’‘possum to me.”’ T. R.: All right. Bang! I'll charge ‘em a dollar extra for the apostrophe, and explain that I killed it by mistake, thinking it was a puma, sometimes known as a cougar, sometimes known as a mountain lion. Add that sentence up and see how much it’s worth.” like an ordinary Shortly after it became known that the future Roosevelt stories would bring $1 a word, the following telegram was received at Sagamore Hill: “faving learned on what I take ex- treme pleasure in characterizing as un- impeachable, or, I might say, incontro- vertible authority, but from a source which, for the present, I must reluct- antly decline, as it were, for reasons that, doubtless, you can yourself appre- clate, to disclose, that you have under consideration, or perhaps I might better say, have received from the publishers, or at least from the editors of certain magazines, periodicals, et cetera, a prop- osition to the effect that -you are to be paid a dollar a word for each contribu- tion narrating, your experiences, perhaps I might say adventures, in pursuit of game in Africa, I hasten to suggest—in- deed, I might say urge—you to allow— or if I may so put it—employ me to sup- ply the manuscript at a cent a word. “HENRY JAMES.”

TO AMBUSH AND SHOOTS ENE for Missouri Farmer Gets Away. VICTIM SERIOUSLY HURT! re He Recently Killed Man Who Accused Him of Circulat- ing Stories. Special to the Post-Dispatch. SPRINGFIELD, Mo., July 3.—Frank Coy, @ rural mail carrier living near Kissee Mills, Taney County, who shot and killed Boyd McVetie during a quar- rel a month ago, was shot from ambush yesterday afternoon. He‘ was brought to Springfield this morning and three buckshot were taken from his body. His condition is serious. Coy has the contract to deliver the Government mails between Dit and Kissee Mills. Half way between these two points he was fired upon from the dense brush. Though badly wounded, Coy put spurs to his horse and galloped to Hilda, where he received surgical at- tention. ‘ Ne Trace of Assailant. The Sheriff was notified and went to the scené at once. No trace of the as- sailant could be found. A: bed of leaves behind a ledge of rocks showed where the man had hidden. Bits of bread on the ground indicated that he had been waiting for hours. The brush from the ledge of rock to the road, about thirty paces, had been cut away to give Coy’s assailant a good shot. A month ago Coy was riding past the home of Boyd McVey, when he was stopped and accused by McVey of cir- culating stories involving a young wom- an’s name. Coy denied it. McVey is said to have drawn a revolver, deciar- ing he was going to kill Coy on the spot. Before he could carry out the threat Coy drew his own revolver and sent a_ bullet thrqugh McVey’s heart. Out on $3000 Bond. Coy immediately surrendered to the Sheriff. He is now out on bond of $3000. The slain man left a father and two brothers. Coy is one of the best.marksmen in Taney County, and was armed at the time he was ambushed. Unable to see his assailant, he says, he fled to escape a second load of buckshot. The Coy and McVey families are prominent in Taney County affairs. HAWES, HERO OF DOG SHOWS. HERO OF A DOG FIGHT, TOO One Mighty Thrust of Gallant Leader’s Boot Puts Mongrel Out of Summer Garden. Harry B. Hawes hasn’t run several dog shows for nothing. He knows how to handle a bad bow- wow, as he showed Thursday night at a summer garden at Delmar boulevard and Buclid avenue. The garden crowd, including many women, was thrown into a near-panic when two fighting dogs, a little spaniel and a tall mongrel, rolled in at the front gate. | : There were cries of ‘‘mad dog” as the spaniel snapped right and left in an effort to shake off his pursuer. Women jumped upon cheers—no, chairs. . The gallant leader was there. With a well-directed kick he caught the mongrel on the toe of his boot and sent it sailing into the street. The other dog gave one horrified look at the president of the Kennel Club and fled with its t between its I. Then the famous specialty, “Where Is the Waiter?” was resumed, while a by- stander explained to Patrolman Mar- shall by saying “dog gone.” FARMHAND WANTED REAL MONEY INSTEAD OF BEER Now Nels Larsen Is Charged With Firing Employer’s Potato Patch. Nels Larsen, a farmhand, & years old, was held to the grand jury by Justice Wangelin at Belleville Friday to answer a charge of arson.

Nicol says he has witnesses who saw Larsen set fire to the straw. Larsen worked one day for Nicol and was paid with a keg of beer and meals. He demanded & cents an hour, which Nicol refused to pay.

| STEER THAT WAS STAKE IN NOTED ~ LITIGATION DEAD - ls ad - ¢heck’s ready.” Pe Elijah Rice’s Red “Beef Crit- Was Worth $10,000 in Attorneys’ Fees. “~-s %JDED IN OBITUARY Broken Heart Kills Venerab‘c Animal Over Which 5- Year Fight Raged. —_—- edt MACON, Mo., July 3. STEER—On July 1, 1908, at its home near Lagonda, Mo., one red steer, 12 years old, 17 hands high, worth $10,- 000, the property of Elijah E. Rice. Peace to its hide. The above obituary appeared in a Chariton County paper this week. De- tails of the animal’s death were obtained from Jim Rice, Elijah’s son. He thinks it was a case of broken heart. There was talk of the steer being exhibited at country fairs this season as Mis- souril’s most famous quadruped. When the old animal learnea the idea had been abandoned, it laid down and died. There will be no cards of thanks, be- eause no friends ‘‘assisted at the death.” At the December call, 1904, of the Kansas City Court of Appeals docket, the biggest case over a small matter ever tried in Missour! passed into his- tory. The style of the action was John Massengale vs. Elijah E. Rice. The sub- ject of litigation was a spindle-shanked steer, “a very ordinary animal, a scrub,”’ the plaintiff said, ‘‘worth about $90."” Finds Steer in Rice’s. Herd. In September, 1899, John Massengale of Macon County (known as ‘Missouri John” when herding cattle back in Wyoming), missed from his ranch @ small red steer. One evil day a horse- man came along the road and called “Missouri John” out.. He told him he had seen his missing animal down on Rice's farm. John went over to see Farmer Rice. Together they visited the herd, and Massangale promptly spied the scrub. ‘That's mine, Elijah,’’ he said. “No, John,” replied Elijah, ‘we raised that ourselves.”’ Massengale telephoned to his Tawyer in Macon and a suit in replevin was filed. Social Standing at Stake. The diversity of belief furnished grounds for warfare. “Missouri John” hed begun his career by rounding up cattle in the West, and he knew he could not be mistaken. Elijah had grown up in the valleys, where a man’s social success was rated according to his knowledge of steercraft, and he felt the knew the subject of controversy as well as he did any member of his fam- fly. In passing, it may be remarked that it is fairly safe to criticise a cat- tleman’s command of the King’s En- giish, or his manners at the dinner table, but when you challenge his ca- pacity to identify anything that wears horns you can look for trouble with entire confidence. = There were seven trials. At the climax it was figured the unsuccessful litigant stood to lose $5000. “Roast” Costs 8300, The case would have been closed in 1900, but at the end of the trial, during a strong appeal to the jury, Elijah’s leading lawyer, J. A. Collect, used this language, taken from the printed rec- ord: “Massengaie obtained his start by rounding up unbranded cattle in the West, and branding them as: his own. Inethe West they call that “branding mavericks,’ but here in Missouri we call it plain-out cattle stealing.”’ That shert tirade cost Elijah $300, for the plaintiff appealed on the ground that there was no evidence in the rec- ord to justify the attack. During the life of the steer case it had been tried at Bynumville, Saig;- bury, Kansas City and Fayette. When the trial was ‘‘on’ in a town, the tav- ern-keepers would send out for extra help in the cookroom and Duy out the grocers. The case was fought out with vary- ing honors until a fatal day in_ last April, when a jury came into court at Fayette and said the steer belonged to Elijah. . me Pays Price, Despite Defeat. Missour!

The club is composed of the residents of this suburb in St. Louls County, and has several unique features that will undoubtedly be watched by other subur- ban towns, and if successful, copied. This club will be the center of the social life of Kenwood Springs; euchre, bridge-whist and card parties will be given, dances, dinner parttes, etc., will be arranged and a committee of ladies will have charge ef these affairs. Another interesting attempt will be tried by this club, which will be that the club will buy special food supplies for all members who desire. Lunches and dinners will also be served at the different homes by the club, manage- ment, j The Kenwood Springs Club will be part and parcel of the home life at Kenwood, and club service is expected to solve a great many of the servant problems generally developed at homes in the country.

I BAYAN LOSES — Runs From Lincoln to His Front Door, a ‘Distance of Three Miles. LINCULN, Neb., July 3.—If William Jennings Bryan should be defeated for the presidential nomination at Denver, there will be a trolley line for sale cheap here. It is three miles long and runs froin Lincoln to the front door of Bryan’s home at Fairview Farm. Lincoln capi- talists built the trolley line after Bryan announced that he had built all his bridges for the nomination. The Bryan managers declared today that they have 100 votes more than are necessary for the victory, and so Lin- coln is washing its face, combing its hanr and preparing generally for com- pany. trip, visitors will be permitted to en- joy themse'ves by making all the noise they care to. The local Bryan Club last night ap- pointed 4 committee to take charge of the demonstration that will occur if the nomination comes their way. The com- mittee will arrange a program of bell ringing, cannon firing, horn blowing and a general rootin’, tootin’ good time. Open to All Comers. All the clubrooms in the city will be open next week, and society woman are arranging various festivities for the fem- inine visitors. Popcorn and pink lem- onade stands are springing up along the jroad that leads to the Bryan farm. Even William R. Hearst and what is left of his ‘Independence League’’ will be wel- come, according to the intimation in an editorial in the Commoner. Not to be outdone by his own fellow townsmen in the matter of hospitality, Mr. Bryan has made extraordinary ar- rangements to insure the comfort of the newspaper correspondents who will be on the job here in case Bryan lands the nomination. This for the Reporters. Directly across the road from his home is a little cottage owned by Mr. Bryan, and here he has installed telegraph fa- cilities for the reporters. A commodi- ous tent will be erected near by to serve as their living quarters. Having supplied them with practical- ly everything else they could use, Mr. Bryan is ready now to give the re- porters all the ‘“‘copy” they desire. The days of ‘“I-have-nothing-to-say” have passed. The eandidate from now on will have lots to say, and he will endeavor to say it so that it will get into print. Just to show that nothing at all is dead in Lincoln now, free silver was mentioned and cheered at a meeting of the Bryan Club last night. The speak- er who raised the ghost laid it again by admitting that it probably could not be made a campaign issue again, but he thought it worth a cheer or two just for old time's sake. ya Tooth Powder Cleanses, preserves and beautifies the teeth, and _ Purifies the breath 'A superior dentifrice for people of refinement.

Delegate Fred W. Tirre bf the Fif- teenth Ward Friday confirm Xi the re- port that the public utilities byll has di- vided the ‘‘combine”’ that hag controlled the House of Delegates since April, 1907. “I guess I'll vote for a@ reorganiza- he said to a’ Post-Dispatch re- porter. ‘I’m not saying much for pub- lication, but I can’t help saying that you can’t rely on those fellows (the combine tion,’’ leaders) any mere. If somebody intro- duces a resolution to declare the House offices vacant, I'll be with him.’’ Favors a Utilities Bill. Tirre is a Republican. He went into the “‘combine’’ when it was organized by Building Commissioner Smith, Jus- tice Miles and Chairman “Lawler Daly and has remained ir it since. Tirre has been consistently in favor of a public utilities bill, however, and as a member o1 the Joint Committee agreed with the Council committeemen on the text of such a measure. Dele- gate Frank Hussey, a “combine’’ lead- er, was with him on the Joint Commit- tee. They promised the councilmen that the House would stand by their agree- ment. When the test came last Tuesday night the House refused to indorse their bill. Led by Delegates Gallagher and Brennan of the “‘combine,’ the House tacked on four amendments. Weeke Also Is Offended. This turned Tirre against his old as- sociates. It also offended Delegate Frank Weeke of the Seventeenth Ward. Hussey was not present and he is silent on a report that he feels the same way. Since then it has been rumored that these three delegates and possibly Del- egate Tobin of the Fourteenth, a friend of Hussey, will switch off from. the “combine” and aid the minority in re- organizing. It is expected that the public utilities bill will be passed next Tuesday night and that the reorganization will be at- tempted at the succeeding meeting af- ter Delegates Hussey and Langdale re- turn from the Democratic convention at Denver. Hussey is an alternate from the Twelfth District. McShane Not Counted. Minority members say the desertions from the majority will give them 16 members—one more than enough to re- organize—not counting Delegate Mc- Shane of the Twenty-seventh Ward, on whom, he said, the minority cannot de- pend. - Se ee - —— SEE THESEST Se NATURAL LAXATIVE WATER —_ OR CONSTIPATION ‘ - OWNERS OF BIG SKYSCRAPER PA HGH LIGHT RATE Union Electric Contract for Ligget Building Is 5 Cents a Kilowatt. TWICE THAT OF HOTEL —eeeee 9 Jefferson Is Only Cents, While Other Structures Al- so Are Served Cheaper. Owners of the 16-story Liggett Build- ing, Eighth and Chestnut streets; are heavy contributors to the “Ready to Serve Club” of the Union Electric Light and Power Co. When the building was taken over by the West End Realty Co. it assumed the electric light contract of the No- vember Realty Co., calling for a mini- mum of $1047.67 a month. At no time since the present manage- ment took charge of the building—not even in the winter months when the de- mand for light reaches the maximum of the year—has it been able to use the current to which it would be entitled un- der the minimum guarantee. The building is entitled to 250,000 kilo- watt hours of electricity a year under the present contract, part of it being used for power and part of it fer light. Rate Called Exorbitant. The building, under the contract, is en- titled to a consumption of 20,833 kilowatt hours of current each month. The rate, which includes heat, is a little more than 5 cents a kilowatt hour—twice as much as it is costing many of the other large office buildings for heat and electric current made in their own plants. The Union has contracts for supplying other buildings in the same district for current for light and power at rates varying from below 2 cents a kilowatt hour to 2% cents a kilowatt hour. The Jefferson Hotel has a rate of 2 cents, the Syndicate Trust Building has a rate of 2% cents, but is under an exceeding- ly high minimum; the Missouri “Athletic Club has a rate of 2% cents, and several other office buildings have about the same rate. More Than Missouri Trust. The manager of the Liggett Building formerly was manager of the Missouri Trust Building, Seventh and Olive streets, which gets its service from the Neighborhood Light, Heat and Power Co. This company supplies the Mis- souri Trust and Chemical buildings from a plant in the basement of the Missouri Trust Building. The Missouri Trust Building has at least 100 more rooms than the Liggett Building, and its former manager says it consumes a great deal more electric- ity for light and power. The cost of the service for the building, he says, fre- quently did not exceed $750 or $800 a month. The heat for the two buildings is sup- plied principally from the exhaust steam of the Neighborhood plant. This plant has been so successful that the Wright Building and the Frisco Building, both of which have been erected since the Chemical and Missouri Trust buildings, and are under the same management, have installed their own plants. Wanted $500 a Month. When the Frisco Building was en- larged the capacity of its’ electrical plant was increased. Union Electric wanted $500 a month for making an emergency connection for the building, but by increasing the capacity of the plant this expense was not incurred. The manager of the Liggett Building says that a neighborhood plant for the three big office buildings in the block— the Liggett, Missouri Pacific and Lin- coln Trust—would render an ideal serv- ice at low cost to each. The Missouri Pacific and Lincoln Trust buildings now have their own plants. The proprietors of the new American Theater and Hotel at Sev- enth and Market streets, across the street from the Missouri Pacific Build- ing, have expended approximately $100, 000 equipping it with electric light, power and heating plants. - But for the difficulty of crossing the streets with the wires the office build- ings could establish a neighborhood system for any group of buildings and serve them with light, heat and power at much lower rates than they can get from Union Electric, although the com- pany makes a low rate to big cgnsum- ers to discourage the establishment of private plants.

Nobody claimed it and the solicée of the North Market Street Po Station didn’t know what to do with it/ until John Bloemecke, a teamster, at Ninth and North Market streets, came to the rescue. “I'll feed the nag and put meat on its bones if you'll let me use it. until you find the owner,” he said. Good Oats After Bad, His offer was acgepted. For two weeks he kept the horse, but he couldn’t make it feel its oats. The more he fed it, the thinner it got.

Capt. .Pickel had no use for the tamed, unfiery steed. “Go over and shoot him,” he said to Patrolman Crow. ; The horse stood in Bloemecke’s yara and listlessly looxed at the policeman as he drew his revolver. Crow advanced, held the weapon a foot from the horses neck and pulled e trigger. The doomed nag dodged and the bul- let went whizzing over its head. It turned and looked at Crow with a sneer. It reared, jumped straight up in the air, dived and struck the ground on its head. It’s neck was broken.

WHO'S WHO IN SCRAMBL FOR CIRCUIT ATTORNE YSHIP:

Each Party Has Six « Candidates, and ‘Every Faction Democratic and Re- publican City, Poli- tics Is Represented. —_— ———- --- or -—- All factions of the Republican and Democratic parties are represented in the contest for nomination for Circuit Attorney to be decided at the general primary election Aug. 4. The large field of aspirants—six Dem- ocrats and six Republicans—is attrib- uted to the fact that the circuit attor- neyship is regarded as one of the most 4mportant offices of St. Louis. Receiving the same salary as the Mayor, $5000 a year, the Circuit Attor- ; ney is allowed additional fees in cor- J out crime. Doration suits, which increases his total income of $7500. He has eight appoin- tive assistants, seven of whom receive a salary of $250 a month one assistant at $150 and four clerks at $100. For contingent expenses the State ap- propriates $5000 annually.

Although the nominating convention, with its caucus cliques, is a thing of the past, the political slatemakers have not abandoned the idea that they can dic- ig tate Circuit Attorney Sager’s successor. ‘ 5 ’ ; ? 4 H Three Hend Republican Race. OLITICAL opinion seems to have f? centered on Seebert G. Jones, ; . Loomis C. Johnson and George ‘B. Webster as the leading candidates for the Republican nomination. The other three Republicans—Charles Fen- gky, William FE. Fish and John M. Goodwin, are not reckoned as formida- ble, although each claims a substantial following. Jones is a brother-in-law of Jeptha D. Howe, chairman of the Republican : City Committee. In disclaiming spon- | sorship for his candidacy, Mr. Howe admits that practically all the members ‘of the City Committee are lined up for ‘Jones and in every ward the Republican organization is making strenuous ef- forts to bring about his nomination. ' Jones is one of Circuit Attorney Sa- /ger's assistants and owes his appoint- ment to politics. He was not living In St. Louis at the time of his appointment. He had grad- uated in law, but found business as a salesman for the American Tobacco Co. more profitable.

Zachritz himself served a term as Cir- cult Attorney and was known as a friend of the “‘gang."’ He combined re- cently with the Niedringhaus forces in an effort to depose Howe from the chairmanship of the City Committee. en, Webster claims the backing of sev, 2% 1 larce West End wards, including _gthe Twenty-sixth, and believes that a ber of former Renublican commit- teemen will support him in preference to Johnson or Jones.

This he declined to do, declaring that he was a Democrat and would not accept any other nomination. Walsh Is Daly’s Protege. Harry M. Walsh, political protege of “Col.’’ Ed Butler, is the avowed candi- date of Lawler Daley and Justice ‘‘Jim- my’’ Miles. He is a partner of James J. Butler, who was tavice ousted from his seat in Congygss because of alleged election frauds in the Twelfth Congressional Dis- trict. ALSH is relying largely on the W Butler wards to pilot his candi- dacy to victory. These wards in- clude the Third, Fifth, Sixth, Four- teenth, Sixteenth, Nineteenth and Twen- ty-third, all ef which are controlled by the Daley-Miles combinatioin. State Senator Kinney, however, has re- fused to join the Walsh movement. He says he will support no Butler candidate, notwithstanding the strong opposition attitude of his committee associates. Walsh’s practice {s limited to the criminal courts. On recent occasions he has been rebuked by judges of those tribunals because of his alleged of- fensive attitude toward witnesses and opposing counsel. In his capacity as attorney he has de- fended members of the so-called ‘‘Bot- toms Gang”’ in court. N. P. L. Rosch has never held public office. He is 38 years old and has prac- tised ten years. He is one of the cam- paign managers for Dave Ball of Pike County. His strength lies chiefly in the Ninth Ward, where he lives. Clark’s Nomination Resented. As the candidate of the Butler forces, Ben F. Clark obtained the Democratic nomination for Circuit Attorney in 1892. At the same time the Republicans gave this honor to William C. Zachritz. Botb nominations aroused a storm of public protest. Citizens brushed aside party af- filiations and selected an independent candidate for Circuit Attorney in the person of Charles P. Johnson. Johnson came within a few votes of defeating Zachritz, the successful nominee. Ben Clark has not been nominated since for any public office.

~ BROWARD FOR N INDORSEMENT {BRIAN OFFERS, THREE WAYS 10 ROOSEVELT! HANDLE TRUS]

Florida’s Swarthy Governor Favors Radicalism, He As- serts at St. Louis. WANTS REAL PLATF ———

RM Everglades State Is for Bryan, Despite Report to the Contrary. |

With a real, live vice-presidential can- didate at their head, Florida's delega- tion to the Denver Convention spent Fri- day morning in St. Louis, arriving at 7:30 a. m. and awaiting an afternoon train for Lincoln, where they will spend a’ part of Saturday calling on William J. Bryan. The Alabama, North Caro- na and Mississippi delegations joined them here for the journey to Lincoln. Gov. Napoleon Bonaparte Broward, tall, heavy and swarthy, is the vice- presidential candidate and the spokes- man of the special-car party from the Everglades. “We are for Bryan because he is a dical,”” said Gov. Broward to a Post- patch reporter, in denying the state- ment of a St. Louis newspaper that the delegation was against Bryan. Would Indorse Roosevelt. “T am in favor of a plank indorsing President Roosevelt for his courageous work in upholding Democratic doctrines and policies. Such a plank should praise the President unreservedly for his cou- rage and his radicalism, and should then point’ to the fact that Mr. .sryan is the original advocate of these policies, and is best fitted to continue them. “Our platform must be no assortment of platitudes like that of thé Republic- ans at Chicago. It myst ring with an appeal to the people. “Let the platform call on the Ameri. can pedple td’ be no longer serfs, slaves, peasants, hopping around on the soil owned by Rockefeller and other pluto- crats as if they were goats trespassing on somebody's lawn. Let the people resume control of the natural wealth of this country. Why Bryan Is Favored. ‘Bryan, while a radical, is the most truly conservative of public men, for he believes in conserving the public re- sources for the people. “Gov. Johnson is too conservative, in the sense in which that word is most often used. Our people would as soon vote for Taft and done with it. ‘He will not be acceptable to our peo- ple as a vice-presidential candidate, nor will Judge Gray or any other so-called conservative. “Broward is the man for Vice-Pres- ident,’ supplemented State Senator W. H. Milton at fhis point. Name to Be Presented. The ‘other members of the delegation, ciiimed their approval, and agreed in the announcement that Broward’s name would be presented to the Convention for sece@nd place on the ticket. He is servuig his first term as Governor. : Others in the delegation are ex-Gov. W. 8. Jennings, a first cousin of Can- _ Gidate Bryan; Frank L. Mays of the Pensacola Journal, Representative F.

These Are Embodied in Draft of the Platform He Will Send to Denver.

——_——— FOR FEDERAL LICENSE —_—_———_——_—- oo Also Demands That Products| Be Sold at Same Price Everywhere. .

LINCOLN, Neb., July 3.—The plat- form which will be sent from Lincoln to the Resolutions Committee at Den- ver will accuse the Republicans of abandoning the policies of Roosevelt and of retreating from the position he assumed on various important policies. There will also be a reference to Grover Cleveland, but he will not be eulogized so strongly as in the resolutions Judge Parker is said to contemplate intro- ducing in the Convention. On the subject of trusts the platform will say: “A private monopoly is indefensible and intolerable. We, therefore, favor the vigorous enforcement of the crim- inal law against trusts and trust mag- nates and demand the enactment of such additional legislation as may be nec- essary to make it impossible for a pri- vate monopoly to exist in the United States.. Remedies for Trust Evils. “Among the additional remedies we specify these three: “First, a law preventing the duplica- tion of directors among competing cor- porations; second, a high-license sys- tem which will, without abridging the right of each state to create corporations or its right to regulate as it will for- eign corporations doing business with- in its limits, make it necessary for a manufacturing or trading corporations in interstate commerce to take out a Federal license before it shall be per- mitted to control as much as 25 per cent of the product in which it deals, the license. to protect the public from watered stock and to prohibit the con- trol by such corporation of more than 50 per cent of the total of any product consumed in the United States; and third, a law compelling such licensed corporations to sell all purchasers in all parts of the country on the same terms, after making due allowanée for cost of transportation.’’ Tariff Reform Demanded, Concerning the tariff question, draft of the platform says: “We welcome the belated promise of tariff reform, now offered by a part of the Republican party, as a tardy recog- nition of the righteousness of the Democratic position on this question,but the people cannot safely entrust the exe- cution of this intportant work to a party which is so obligated to the highly pro- tected interests that it postpones relief until after the election, and we call at- tention to the significant fact that the premise now made by those Repub- licans who favor tariff revision is whol- ly vitiated by the use of very qualify- ing words, under which the present tar’ if iniquities have grown up. ‘We favor an immediate revision of the tariff by the reduction of import dutles. Articles entering into competi- tion with articles controlled by trusts should be placed upon the free list; ma- terial reduction should be made in the tariff upon the necessaries of life, and reductions should be made in such oth- er schedules as may be necessary to re- stcre the tariff to a revenue basis.”’ For Railroad Regulation. The platform’ contains a declaration in favor of the election of United States the senators.by popular vote, the eight-hour day is indorsed and there is a declara- tion in favor of an employers’ liability bill. Other planks are worded as fol- lows: “We favor an income tax as part of our revenue system and we urge the submission of a constitutional amend- ment specifically authorizing Congress to levy and collect a tax upon individual corporate incomes, to the end that wealth may bear its proportionate share of the burdens of the Federal Government. We favor a national in- heritance tax to reach the ‘swollen fortunes’ already in existence, but we believe that it is better to permanent- ly prevent ‘swollen fortunes’ by abol- ishing the privileges and favoritism upon which they are based. “ye assert the right of Congress to exercise complete control over inter- state commerce, and we assert the right of each State to exercise just as complete control over commerce within its borders. Valuation of Railroads. “We demand such en enlargement of the powers of national] and State rail- way commissions as may be necessary to give full protection to persons and places from discrimination and extor- tion. “We believe that both the nation and the various States should, first, ascer- tain the present value of railroads meas- ured by the cost of production; second, prohibit the issue of any water stock or fictitious capitalization; third, pro- hibit the raflroads from entering i any businese with their shippers, an fourth, reduce transportation rates un- til they reach a point where they will yield only a reasonable return on the present value of the roads, such rea- sonable return being defined as returns sufficient to keep the stock of the roads at par when such roads are honestly | Capitalized,”’

OPPOSITION TO BRYAN IS BASED ON HIS WEAKNESS}

Continued from Page One.

Neither Judge Gray nor Gov. Johnson will accept the vice-presidency, accord- ing to their managers. It developed that the Bryan leaders will not oppose the introduction of a resolution eulogizing the late President Cleveland nor the adjournment of the convention for a day after the tempo- rary organization. This is said to be in accordance with the express wish of Mr. Bryan. Some of the ultra-Bryan men opposed the plan on the ground that such a step would place the convention on rec- ord as indorsing the conservative poli- cies of Cleveland, which were diamet- rically opposed to those now favored by Mr. Bryan. This: objection was over- ruled by Mr. Bryan and the members of the National Committee and there will be no attempt made to head off 'the friends of Mr. Cleveland, who have declared their intention to offer the res- olution. An adjournment after the temporary organization probably will prolong the convention to four days. Denver Officials for Bryan. The Gray people ran against a snag teday which. indicated that the. con- trolling officials of Denver are pro- Bryan. The Gray men have five large street banners which they brought with them. The largest was to be strung across Seventeenth street from_ the Savoy Hotel. Permission from the own- ers of both buildings was obtained, but the police interfered. Judge Gavin, a Denverite and one of the Gray advocates, was told that the Board of Public Works had decided to forbid the stringing of banners because Denver had expended large sums on an elaborate electric lighting system, and did not want the effect of the nightly illumination interfered with. This ex- planation seemed curious, but Judge Gavin said he would have the banners put up on the sides of buildings. He was told that that could not be done either, as the Denver police and fire department had adopted regulations forbidding the stringing of banners on buildings to avert the danger of fire. Judge Gavin stated that the Gray banners were made of practically non- inflammable material, and pointed .to the fact that many buildings were cov- ered with inflammable bunting. He was told that the regulations against the banners would have to stand and that the same ruling would be made in the case of Bryan. and Johnson, and: all Nother candidates. Judge Gavin replied that such a ruling would work no hard- ship whatever in the case of Bryan, because of his. 600 while it was a distinct hardship to others who were making an up-hill fight for the nomination. _ Bryan Men Get Many Tickets. Josiah Marvel, head of the Gray forces, said he proposed to see the Mayor of Denver about the matter, adding: “It seems ridiculous for a city to pay a large sum to get a national convention and then prevent one of the natural adjuncts of'a convention. Ban- ners announcing the candidates and the whereabouts of their headquarters are almost a necessity, and, properly made and strung, are not disfiguring or a menace.”’ . , The tavors.snown the triends of Mr. Bryan ‘in the distribution of tickets of admission to the convention hall insure a a lot of help if his managers pro- e anything in the way of a stampede for him. The tickets were distributed last night and there are mgny angry anti-Bryan men in Denver today. The Bryan States received generous allotments. Nebraska, for instance, gets 50) admission tickets; Kansas, 300; Utah, 100; ‘Wyoming, 100; Tilinofs, 300; and Colorado, 150; While Delaware received CURE FOR SKIN RASHES The following receipt immediately stops the burning and itching of any skin rash and heals any flesh sor: Wet a soft cloth with X-Zalia, a liquid which can be bought at any drug store, and plac#the cloth over the rash.

Mack emitted a stream of protest that was heard in the foothills of the Rockies, 2s miles away. He had received tnfor- mation that he would be expected to take care of 800 New Yorkers. Josiah “Marvel, nead of the Gray forces, is confident that Bryan will not have the required two-thirds on first ballot and that it will be possible to get many of the delegates under in- structions for Bryan to vote for Gray after they have discharged their obliga- tions by one vote for the Nebraskan. Information which has come to the Gray headquarters is that fully half of the delegates under instructions for Bryan are personally in favor of some other candidate, because of the belief that Mr. Bryan cannot be elected. It is claimed for Judge Gray that he would poll not only the full Democratic vote in New York, New. Jersey and other Eastern states, essential to the success of the ticket, but a major part of the independent vote, and wouiu be success- ful in the section of the country where Bryan would certainly fail. A number of Bryan men called at the Gray headquarters to sound Mr. Marvel on nominating Judge Gray for \ice- President. Conspicuous among these was Charles G. Heifner of Seattle, head of the Washington delegation. Mr. Heif- ner is”’an ardent Bryan man and is equally ardent for Judge Gray for sec- ond place. To all offers of support of Judge Gray for the vice-presidency, Mr. Marvel says that Delaware is committed to the sin- gle purpose of getting first place on the ticket for its candidate, and will not abandon that purpose for any other man until the nomination for President has been disposed of. Asks for Caucus Monday Night. The managers of Gov. Johnson were visited by a number of delegates, who displayed a keen interest in a circular letter written by Samuel H. Wood of Evanston, IN., proposing that a meeting be held Monday night of all the dele- gates uninstructed for or opposed to Bryan, for the purpose of taking action to prevent his nomination. Mr. Wood has sent his detter to every- one of the 1008 delegates; also to every one of the alternates. In the letter he gives many arguments against the nom- ination of Bryan, declaring he stands absolutely no chance of election. He states that he visited Mr. Bryan at Lin- coln and told him he could not be elect- ed, and ought to get out of the way of jone who stood a fair chance of success. He urges those of the uninstructed delegates who are doubtful of the wis- dom ef nominating Bryan to get to- gether and memorialize the Nebraskan to release them from their instruc- tions, so that the convéntion may select the man best fitted to carry the party to victory. Whether the conference will be called depends on the attitude of the delegates when they arrive. The Johnson men also received word of a possible revolt among the South- ern delegates pledged for Bryan. It is declared that when Bryan was in Con- gress in 1892 he refused to vote during the speakership contest for either Crisp or Mills, on the ground that they were ex-Confederates. He is algo ac- cused of saying at the time hat he would never cast his vote for an ex- Confedefate for any office, and that throughout the contest he voted for Springer.

the VBRVAN APPROVES ut S PIOUED Ml JOHNSON He: Neéver Has Forgiven Minne- sotan for Daring to Oppose Him.

From a Staff Correspondent of the Post-Dispatch. DENVER, Colo., July 3.—So far as known William J. Bryan has expressed just two convictions regarding the Vice- Presidency. Both of these were brought here by J..C. Dahlman, the Bryan spokesman. They are: Bryan would liké to have Gray on the ticket with him. Bryan does not want Johnson on the ticket with him. These two brief and positive opinions have been issued to the Denver pre- convention gathering, not only through Mr. Dahlman, but by means of many other travelers from the capital of Ne- braska. A good deal of this opposition to John- son is pure Bryan stubbornness. He was piqued when Johnson dared to oppose him for the nomination, and he has never got over it. But the thing which sticks in his craw is that. the Johnson people have said over and over again that in case Bryan is named he will not be able to carry the election. Bryan Meh Wince Under Taunt. The Johnson people here now say it. They say it tauntingly to Bryan's friends. They hammer it in remorse- lessly. They say that the Bryan men know this, and that if Bryan's persistence wins it. will be purely a personal matter without any hope of party success. This has got on the nerves of the Bryan men. They realize that nearly everyone here suspects the taunt to be deserved, and that nearly all think Johnsoh could be elected. Charles A; Towne, hot in pursuit of the vice-presidential nomination, visited the Gray headquarters and saw R. J. Beamish, one of the Gray managers. ‘We'll help you in any way we can,” said Mr. Beamish. “We’ll lend you our manicure.’’ ‘Thanks,” replied Mr. Towne, I'll re- ciprocate by sending around my chirop- odist; who may help you to run. He is crowding my headquarters as it is.”’ ‘I hope they won’t. prove to be hind- quarters,”’ sae Seeonacie Mr. Beamish, litely.

Jurist’s Manager Suggests It at Denver Without Cracking a Smile. Bpecial to the Post-Dispatch. = DENVER, Colo., July 3.—The humor- ist of the convention appeared today in the person of Josiah Marvel, Judge Gray’s Manager, who suggests that Bry- and take the second place on a ticket, with Judge Gray for President. Such an act would commend Mr. Bryan to the Democracy of the nation, says Marvel, with marvelous solemnity. Besides, he adds, by the time the term was finished—assuming victory—Judge Gray would be too old to run again and Mr. Bryan would be the logical candidate for @ resident in 1912: Says Marvel: “Mr. Bryan believés that Judge Gray is the biggest Democrat in the country, outside of himself. I told Mr. Bryan that we were not fighting him, but that we were for Judge Gray for first place on the ticket. I told him also that Judge Gray could get the Democratic votes of New York, New Jersey, Connecticut, Delaware and Maryland, which Bryan could not get. The fact that Bryan wants Judge Gray on the ticket with him is an indication that this conven- tion fs to adopt a platform upon which Judge Gray could . stand, either for President or Vice-President.” FIGHT AGAINST BRYAN IS PREDICTED BY GUFFEY DENVER, Colo., July 3.—Col. James M. Guffey, the well-known Democratic leader in Pennsylvania, arrived late to- day. When asked for an expression of his opinion as to candiflates and the platform Guffey said: “I understand that the sentiment here is that Bryan is going to be nominated. It must be remembered, however, that there has been nobody here to speak except Bryan men, and naturally Bryan sentiment would prevail under such cir- cumstances. There are a lot of unin- structed delegates in the convention, you must remember and if Bryan is nominated it will only be after a fight."

He is represented as holding the opin- fon that the negro troopers should not have been discharged without honor un- til their guilt had been established by legal inquiry. Those who agree with him. contend that such an expression could not be properly construed as in any way an expression on the race question, and they point out that Mr. Taft’s instrumentality as Secretary of War in carrying the President’ order of dismissal into effect has embittered many negroes.

White Sox Are Punished In Second Game For Beating Waddell In First.

By JAMES CRUSINBERRY. I LTHOUGH the St. Louls City are worried. Big Ed Walsh carried the White Sox through the battle in the opening game with colors flying, the score being 5 to 1, while Rube Waddell, the great and eccentric twirler of the Browns, took flight before one inning was over. In the second encounter’ Bill Dinneen waded through the former champions of the earth and blanked them, 9 to 0, the Browns pounding Pitchers Owen and ulmsted without mercy. ; Three games are to be played in the two days remaining for the Browns’ visit here and Mayager McAleer has his men primed for fighting, while the Sox are badly fussed and hoping that luck will step in and favor them, for, to all appearances, luck only can help them out of their distress. Ed Walsh is a marvel and the Browns had but a faint hope of beating him. But Walsh can’t pitch for Chicago every day. He is the one twirler on Fielder Jones’ team that is effective against the Browns. Jones will be forced to use his left-handers in at least one of the re- maining three games. On the other hand, the Browns have -their pitchers ‘3n Graham, Pelty and Howell for the remaining games that have always been a trouble to the White Sox. Waddell Was Not Right. HE Browns played a bit of bad baseball in the first game yester- day, but it is doubtful if they could have beaten Ed Walsh with per- fect execution. McAleer took a chance pn Waddell’s being in one of his win- ‘ning moods and thus giving the Browns mn even chance against Walsh. But Waddell was far from form and was hit out of the box in the very first in- ning. Then Young BIH Bailey took command and finished the game with Much credit to himself, but he was far from. stron enough to have beaten Walsh.

RAIN MAY DELAY TENNIS TOURNEY — Courts Will Have to Be Re-Marked After Courts Dry Out Again,

Tom Aitken, the veteran grounds keeper and golf instructor of the Triple A, stated this morning thatthe rain might make it necessary to post- pone the opening of the annual tourna- |- championship of the ment for the Central United States. Judging from the amount of rain that has fallen, the tournament may not start until Monday. The courts Thursday afternoon were in excellent shape. The sun had dried them thoroughly after the rain earlier in the week and practically all of the 16 courts were in use. Dummond Jones, L. E* Moore, Melville Smithers and a numberof other strong players spent the afternoon practicing hard for the tournament. It takes time for the Triple A courts to dry out, although they are perfectly drained and being located on the top of a hill, the rain runs off rapidly. Then, too, it will také some time to mark the courts for the tourna- ment, as the lines will have to be correct to the fraction of an inch and the nets will have to be stretched just right. Triple A men are still hopeful that the tournacent will open at the sched- uled time Saturday morning ‘at 10 o'clock, but it is hardly, probable that it will be possible to play the first match of the tournament before Sat- urday afternoon if the contests are able tu get on the courts by that time.

| POLLOCK’S FIGHT NEWS. NEW: YORK, July 3. As Joe Gans and Packey McFarland look like the winners of their fights to- morrow afternoon, with Battling Nelson and Freddie Welsh, the English light- weight, fight promoters all over the country have made offers to them to fight at their clubs.. These promoters include Jimmy Coffroth, Jim Jeffries, ‘“Tex’’ Rickard and Tom Andrews of the Badger Athletic Club of Milwaukee. Rickard has offered the best incentive so far—a purse of $20,000 for a 45-round battle.

A match will be arranged in a few days between Amby McGarry and John- ny Frayne, the California lightweight champion, for a six-round bout at the Fairmont Athletic Club on Friday even- ing, July 17. Frayne made such a great showing against Jack Dorman last night that Matchmaker Billy Gibson has de- cided to put him on again with McGar- ry. “Peggy” Bettinson, matchmaker of the National Sporting Club of London, has notified Marvin Hart, the Louisville heavyweight, that he wants him to meet Tack Johnson, the negro heavyweight, in a 20-round bout at his club the first week in October. Frank McKee, man- ager of Hart, has cabled Bettinsen ac- ‘epting the bout and telling him to get sam Fitzpatrick’s consent to have John- son fight Hart. Leach Cross, who fights Charlie Grif- fin, the Australian featherwé@ight cham- pion, six rounds at the Roman Athletic Club on Monday night, is already in the best of condition, and confident of winning. If successful in winning this bout Leach will try and get on a .fight with Packey McFarland. Billy, Glover, the Boston light- weight. was matched last night to meet arry Scroggs. the Baltimore pugilist. for six rounds at the Prin- cess Athletic Club stag on ednesday night. They met some time ago at the Longacre Athletic Club, Glover landing an unintentional foul blow on Scroggs in the first round which dis- abled him and he ‘was unable to go on with the fight. . Charley Harvey, manager of Owen Moran, has already posted his forfeit of $1500 for Moran's fight with Abe Attell, which is to be decided at Col- ma on Labor day afternoon. Harvey did not have to put his money up for a few weeks yet, but as he is going to Enxland tomorrow on the 8t. Paul to help out the American athletes in their coming games with the foreign athletes, he put up his forfeit now. Johnny Summers. the English fight- er who made such a great showing in all the fights he had in this country during his two trips here, is coming back again in September. In a letter to his manager. Charley Harvey, he Says as soon as the cool weather ar- rives he will pack his trunk and re. turn to this country. Summers will probably get plenty of matches when he reaches here, as there will be many good out-of-town lightweights here then. Tommy Burns, the heavyweight champion, will sail from England for Australia on Tuesday. He has been signed up for three fights there, for which he is to receive $25.000. His opponents will be “Bill” Lang, the hig heavyweight of that country; Bill Squires. who he has already knocked out in two fights, and some third rat- er. After these fights Burns will re- turn to America and the chances are, will retire from the ring. | Middle State Tennis Vict MOUNTAIN STATION, N. §, July 3. —~N. W. Miles, Harvard; E. P.

Nelson is himself—everybody admits that he is the same hardy, aggressive, never-desisting scrapper of old, and that he is in splendid condition. That should be enough to guarantee that ne will give Gans the battle of his lHfe— even better than the memorable one fought in the desert at Goldfield.

| Gossip for Autoists

Because work was progressing on the Long § Island motor parkway while nothing was being said, it seems likely that there may be more of the roadway completed for the Vanderbilt cup race than the public has been led to expect. Entries for the Glidden tour con- test close July 3 with F. B. Hower, 760 Main street, Buffalo, N. Y. Recent accidents on the road ‘ind}- cate an over production of men. who think fancy driving a proper thing. While on a recent trip to Wasto Coun- ty, Oregon, L. E. Drowe, driving a 1908 model M Oldsmobile touring car, made a phenomenal run. The run was from the Dallas to Tygh Valley, a dis- tance of 40 miles over a very rough and hilly country. The town of Tygh is situated in a deep canyon and can be reached only by passing down a rocky, narrow grade four miles in length. To swerve from this narroweoad by a few feet would mean instant death by be- ing dashed to pieces on the rocks, hun- dreds of feet below. The run from the Dallas to Dufur, a distance of 15 miles, was made in 32 minutes, estab- lishing a new record * between. these points. Mr. Crowe was accompanied on this run by Grant Mays, A. S.

Moment and Got Response.

IS IN FORM Settled Down and Did Good Work -After Cincinnati Scored Once. FROMME

Fromme’s pitching and flelders’ errors at critical times won a rather loosely played game for the Cardinals in their first clash of the series with Cincin- nati Thursday. The score was 4 to 2. McCloskey’s big twirter didn’t strike his gait until after the Reds had scored arun. Then he settled down, held his orponents to four’ hits and struck out 19 batters. Huggins, the first man up, got a pass. Hostetter’s wild throw advanced him and Lohbert’s single over second sent him over the plate with the initial tally. | In the second inning the Cardinals came out of their trance. Koney put one to thé bulletin board for three bases and scored on Campbell's wild pitch. Reds on the Error Wagon, In the fifth the Reds climbed on the error wagon and played foolish ball, the net result béing two runs for the Cardinals. The scoring was done after two men were out. Hostetter knocked an easy one to Ganzel. Byrne hit safe- ly over second but was caught a min- ute later while trying advance on Gilbert’s fly to Ganzel. It looked as though that would be about all, but right there the whistle on the foolish factory sounded. Fromme hit to right and the ball went*through Mitchell as though he were a ghost, Fromme going to second. Barry bunted. Schlei picked up the ball and tossed it to Ganzel. The Reds’ first baseman let, it’ get by him and Gilbert and Fromme weren't afraid to go home in the dark. Two runs on bobbles after two men were out was like picking up money. In the sixth the Reds made a valiant effort to get themselves together. The best they eould do was one run. Hug- gins sneaked across the plate when Ganzel’s tap to Charles forced Lobert at second. Fromme was at his best In the eighth when there was the greatest need for effective pitching. After Kane had struck out, Lobert went to first on Charles’ mishandling of his infield bounder. Paskert singled to center. With two men on base and Ganzel up, it. seemed as though the Queen City delegates had a look-in. But Fromme unwound himsellf and put a crimp in the Jeadpipe. Ganzel slapped the air on the wrist three times and went back to the bench. So did Schlel. Just to put a little bit on the top, the Cardinals made another run in their hatf. Campbell plaved horse with Charles’ bunt. After Murray had gone out to Lobert, Charles stole second and went on to third on Schiet's bad throw. He scored on Delehanty’s Couble. GOLFERS MAKE GOOD RECORDS Finley S. Douglass Does 36 :Holes in 156. NEW YORK, July 3.—Finley S. Douglass of Apawamis made the best score in the 36-hole match play at Rye yesterday, doing the trick in 156. Wal- ter J. Travis of Garden City was next with 157. Both players have won na- tional and... metropolitan honors. The play was to decide the eligibility of the contestants for the ‘tnvitation tourna- ment of the Apawamis Golf Club. There were 97 players, and seven of them turned in cards of 166 or better. Charles H. Seeley, the metropolitan champion; C. R. Gillett of Wykagy) and" W. B.

CRISSHOLDSTHE | STICK AVERAGE FOR AMERICANS Mike Donlin Leads in National League —lew Men Over .300 Mark.

‘ ODE CRISS continues to be the leading batter in the American [) League, while Mike Donlin has the best batting average in the Na- tional League. The Browns’ ‘‘pinch hitter” has not been doing as well lately as earlier in the season and his average has dropped from .450 to .417. When it is considered that but six mcn in the American League and six in the National League are batting above .300 the work of McAleer’s find may be appreciated. Mike Donlin is showing the way in the National League with an average of 831. He batted well during the past ten days and boosted his record .004. Titus of Philadelphia is second best, while ‘“‘Old Reliable’? Honus Wagner still thas more than even chance to top the league, as his present mark is .314, com- pared to .302 for the previous week. None of the Cardinals have been able to break into the top of the list, Mur- ray being the nearest, with an averageof .‘82. The Brownies are the real thing in the American League figures. Criss is on top with his phenomenal mark, but Schweitzer, with a .319 average, is sec- ond. This is the same mark that he had last week. Cobb of Detroit, McCon- nell of Boston and Delehanty each have an average of .315. George Stone has a’ .293 average. Bobby Wallace is batting at a .288 clip.

MR. WELLS’ HINT TO THE COUNCIL. Discussing the Public Service Commission bill * prepared by the House of Delegates for, the ex- “press purpose of awakening his opposition, May- “or Wells said-he would approve it, if passed, and * gave sufficient reasons for so doing. +. This unexpected decision on the part of the “Mayor should insure the speedy passage of the ~ pill. Assuming that the House will support its “own bill and that the Mayor will sign it if it s.reaches him, the only doubt now to be: removed bepelates to the attitude of the Council. If the Mayor can reconcile himself to the House Dill _, there seems to be no good reason why it should “not find favor with the Council. also. The main thing, after’ all, at this juncture, is ‘“the appointment of a commission. It is hardly ‘to be expected that this body can be better on the » average than the Municipal Assembly and it is - THE POOR REASON FOR BRYAN. So far as there is political method in the con- tinuing candidacy of Mr. Bryan, it is explained by the remark of one of his agents at Denver the other day that “‘there are 500,000 voters in the country who, while he is alive, will never vote for any Democrat but Bryan for the presidency.” The number of these voters is immaterial. Twelve years ago they were designated as Pop- ulists and, on the basis of Weaver’s vote in 1892, were estimated at 1,000,000. Eight years ago this million led once more to the nomination of Bryan. Four years ago, when Bryan was not nominated, the million voted solidly for Roosevelt, as the oar a tables plainly show. It is this million or half-million of Bryan-or- Republican men that the Democratic party has been dealing with chi€fly for 12 years, ignoring in the meantime several millions of Democrats who ought to be entitled to some consideration. Events throughout all political history have shown that an asset of this kind is in reality a heavy liability. If there are 500,000 men who prefer a Republi- can to any Democrat other than Bryan it follows as a matter of course that they are not Demo- crats, and that in order to make sure of their votes Democrats must not only nominate one and the same man at each election, but must also surrender such of their principles as are not agree- able to the half-million. This is the Democratic situation in a nut- shell. The experiments made in 1896 and 1900 prove that for cvery Bryan vote of this kind that is gained at least one Democratic vote is lost, and the worst of it is that the Bryan votes are gained chicfly where they are not effective and the Democratic, votes are lost in states where they are absolutely nec- essary. to succcss. The moral to be drawn from all this is that a great political party cannot become a one-man party and hope to figure conspicuously in the po- litica] affairs of the country. A party moreover which permits a compara- tively small faction to coerce it into unfamiliar ways and into nominations which it admits to be hopeless is doomed.

It takes a long time to float a St. Louis loan for public improvements, and then it takes about a month to correct the typographical errors in the bonds. . hp. La Li» — a a SUMMER FLIRTATION WITH A TRUST. Each year at about the time when watermelons thump right for plucking, when the growling dog star rises.and shakes his sides, when frogs sing loudest and snakes are warmed out of their holes, we coyly summon the familiar figure of the Ice Trust into the forum of jurisprudence to engage in certain well-known pleasantries, after which it politely makes its bow and withdraws until another year. The well-timed appearance of this hibernating species of octopus is snaiiy the most diverting feature of the whole silly season, and the coolest thing on the calendar. Nothing could be more grateful to cool out the forum and refresh the prosecution. Indeed, in many of its aspects, the Ice Trust case is positively delicious. What would the season in St. Louis be without our regular summer flirtation with this cheerful octopus that is as fresh as a breath of Christmas in July?

Mr. Vorys of Ohio appears to have been offered the chairmanship of the National Republican Committee, but he is the man to whom the Presi- dent recently referred as an “amateur,” and it is well known that the head of the National Com- mittee must be a professional. ‘ A, A... — a. ae SERGEANT-AT-ARMS JOHN a z a Se ae BE: i y >. a ges Mir Fe : — s 4 “ y * F ; af ae oe ~ 4 a red ee ————

_—--— — BETTING ON THE BROWNS. A rather new \form of baseball enthu- siasm is indicated by the following dis- patch: YOUNGSTOWN, O.—Friends of Manager McAleer, whose home is here, have raised $1000 with. which to back the St. Louis Browns to win the American League pen- nant. Mr. McAleer is not, of course, the only member of the local team with friends in his home town. We may expect to see other splendid testimonials such as this: CORN SHUCK, Neb.—The friends of Left- Fielder George Stone, whose home is here, appeared before the Village Board last night and asked that $500 be taken out of the village treasury and put up on the Browns to win the “pennant. The Board readily acquiesced, and appropriated another $250 that says the Browns also win the world's championship. Or we may find some such .flattering special as this: PAWPAW GAP, Ky.—At a special elec- tion held here today the friends of Hobe Ferris whose home is here. carried a propo- sition to legalize a bond issue _ suffi- clent to provide $2500 to be laid on the 3rowns to win the pennant. Hobe has many admirers here, and they voted early and often. Nor is it likely that the enthustasm will be confined to this country. L like you

We may momentarily expect to encounter a cablegram like this: CORK, IRELAND.—For the first time in many’ years, Cork has wfthheld her annual subscription to the Home Rule Fund for the purposes of betting the money 6n_ the Browns. Jack O'Connor's people came from here, and his enthusiastic admirers believe that by withholding the money until fall for the purpose stated, they can win enough to free Ireland outright. And what is true of one country is usually true of another to the extent of preparing us for this: , GLASGOW, SCOTLAND.—Big money that the Browns will win the American League pennant is going begging all over Scot- land. The Scots have always followed ibe career of Bobby Wallace with the utmost affection, and now that he is on a winning team again, they are much. the happiest of all the subjects of King “Edward. All of which we deeply appreciate and mean to deserve. Mr. Mulvihill says the ratio of saloons to churches in St. Louis is 7 to 1. And he might also have said that the sa- loons are much better attended.

4 iG Objects to Ottoman Zar Adusht Hanish and-#is Osculation 0 Ne TODHUNTER O ON KISSES AND SECTS. Propaganda. Reported for the Post-Dispatch BY RIPLEY D. SAUNDERS. “I’m a stanch believer in the right of every hu- man soul to indulge in its own particular brand of religious worship, but I'll be dadblamed if these Lowell themselves Mazdazns and _ takin’ ma \ re suh,”’ said Col. Thurs. T. Todhunter, firmly, (Mass.) women callin’ part in a kiss-dance with Ottoman Zar Adusht Hanish, | the high prieet of their new sect, ain’t a-carryin’ it a little too far, sub. “T don’t mean to be harsh in my judgments’ suh, but this Mr. Ottoman Zar Adusht Hanish’s name sounds too much like the first dash out o’ the. box in a Mysterious Asia concession show to suit me, suh, and he seems to be havin’ altogether too gayly a time ‘in that once staid old Puritan town, suh. It's all right for the women of RIPLEY D. Lowell to believe in the Mazdazn religion, whatever that SA UIVDERS. may be, suh, but if I was a-livin’ in Lowell and interest- ed in any of them-there women, suh, I'd draw the line at their wholesale kissin’ of Ottoman Zar Adusht Hanish between every jig-step of the sun-dance he’s a- teachin’ 'em suh. I don’t see no good reason for it, suh, and if kissin’ is an imperative duty as a part of the Mazdazn faith, I'd insist upon its bein’ done to the men of Lowell in the good old-fashioned way, suh, instead of to this stranger with the hoochee-coochee name and comin’ from blue blazes and Sam Hill knows where, suh. “Yes, I know he's got’ the constitutional” right to teach the Mazdazn religion fh this free country, suh, and I revere the Constitution and I ain’t got nothin’ personal against Ottoman, suh, but I'll be shot full of holes if I wouldn't try to convince him that the Constitution ts a mighty elas- tic instrument when it comes to an American interpretation of his right to kiss our women in a Mazdamm sun-dance, of which he’s the: bright particular orb of day, suh. No, suh, I wouldn’t be rude to Ottoman because I believe ~{n speedin’ the partin’ guest with all due courtesy, but I'll be eternally con- demned if I wouldn't see to it that he was the partin’ guest all right, suh. “And when I had reached a nice, gentle, soothin’ understandin’ with Ot- toman Zar Adusht Hanish, the Mazdazn, suh, I'd have a little friendly talk with them-there Lowell women, suh. I like to see women enjoy themselves, suh, and I:know they've got emotional natures that are keyed up to a migthy different pitch from our'n, suh, but I'd try to show ‘em that it wasn’t neces- sary to key them-there natures of their’n up to the point of kissin’ Ottoman Zar Adusht Hanish, the Mazdazn, all ’round a sun-dance ring’‘as an outlet for their feminine emotionalism, suh. I'd do thfs more in sorrow than in anger, suh, realizin’' as I do that women is mighty prone to be imposed upon by men of the Ottoman and Mazdazn type, suh, but I'd do it to a fare you well till I got ‘em to see the foolishness of their sun-dancin’ and sun-kissin’ monkey- business, suh. “Aftef which, suh, I'd see to it that there wa’nt no more chances for the women of Lowell to backslide from the faith of their New England forefathers into that of Ottoman Zar Adusht Hanish, the Mazdazn, suh.”’ we i od THE MAN WHO BULLIES STENOGRAPHERS. He Is Usually Bullied at Home Says This Writer for the Post- Dispatch. By LILLIAN BELL. | W- ERE you ever puzzled to know why &@ man who was perfectly obedi- ent to his wife would blow into the office like a whirlwind and pro- ceed to tear things wide open? Well, you needn't be. For the secret js just here. Man is by nature the ruler of things. He is the monarch of the glen, so to speak. And whenever this monarch gets his proud neck under the yore of some female his superfluous energy—his natural instinct to boss SS always as- sert itself. And who shall say that this is not as it should be? Man was born to be the master of his household and is at his best when “he marries a wife who will allow him to be. But sometimes there exists u man who cannot control himself, and therefore he cannot control his own wife. That man, being thwarted in fhe rulership of his domestic household, takes. it out in being a bully in his office household. So, whenever I go out.to dinner with a man who bullies the waiter, ‘or sep an pffice where the stenographer is in terror of her life, I always have @ little secret smile all to myself as I say: ‘‘That man’s wife bosses him!” So be careful, you men who are tyrants outside your own home, be- ‘Cause when you think you are only asserting your manliness by terrifying the office boy and bullying your stenographer, you are carrying around an advertisement as large as a sandwich man that you are the victim of petti- coat rule at home. It seems odd that the men who do these things shouldn't ered the reason for themselves. But they evidently haven't, or they would be ashamed to advertise the fact. If they ever think at all they must know that every effect must have its cause and that the law of compensation is in operation everywhere.and at all times. So, take heart, office girls and office boys! When the boss is most bossy and the big bear most unbearable, just smile quietly to yourselves and say in your hearts: ‘‘Just wait until you get home, mister! Your wife will get even with you for all that you have done to us today."’ The tamest man in the world in his own home is the man who is a whirl- wind in his office. He will stand up, roll over, beg, retrieve handkerchiefs and even play dead whenever his wife tells him to. And, considering his office manners, this is quite as it should be. have discov- _ — THE RELIGION OF THE SENSIBLE AMERICAN. By David Starr Jordan, in the Hibbert Journal. —=—_— this is God's world, nane other more.so. “The God of things as they are” must have his throne within the confines of his creation, and no condition of life and no place or time can lie outside his presence. The sensible American recognizes no antagonism between the words of Jesus and the teachings of human experience, which tested and set in order We Call science. He finds no conflict with the highest ideals, the most repay- ing experiences in conduct of life. ' As his religion is not regulated by intellectual] assent to any proposition in metaphysics, spiritual or biographical, the average «-~sible American is not Qlarmed over the results of the higher criticism. Enough that is genuine Q@nd beyoud qu-stion goes back to the teachings of Jesus. The religious philosophy of the sensible American has long tended in the direction now ticketed by philosophers as pragmatism. Whatever will work in the conauct of life, strengthening it, enriching ft, giving it a higher trend, Tyyist, so far as it goes, have elements of truth. If it were not true, it would not wOrk. But these human theories or conceptions are never simple or pure.

If coneitings will permit, serve your guests out df doors, and nothing would be more lightful than to take a long walk or. early morning drive into the woods af- terwards. A berry breakfast, preferably red raspberries, is ideal for such an ot- casion. At such an affair given the last Fourth the menus were on rough, heaty paper, with a red, temping looking berty painted in water color on each. Butt a girl can’t paint, she can easily find enough berries in flower and frult cata- logues to supply her.

To do her part toward avoiding the wholesale killing of children and grown people and prevent- ing the awful loss of-property resulting from Fourth of July accidents ought to be the sacred duty of every person who entertains on Independence day. Try to get away from the noise if pos- sible and make your entertainment quiet and orderly. If your guests are children, amuse them with patriotic guessing contests, flag games and similar amusements. Make up lists of questions and answers pertaining to the Revolutionary War, and give prizes of patriotic designs to the one answering the greatest number of questions. Or you might have first, second and third prizes. Simple ques- tions as to dates and incidents of battles and campaigns and personages of the WAIT JUST.

It is better to make the questions as simple as possible, or to acquaint your guests in advance with the fact that the entertainment will in- clude such a contest and thus to give them time to prepare themselves. Un- der fo condition should a hostess permit any display of fireworks to form even @ part of her program. , Nothing appeals to children more than a flag entertainment. Send out invita- tions written on note paper decorated with tiny replicas of the flag. Or cards, with embossed flags can be bought from any good stationer. Most of the games should be rr an active, stir-about character, as children are apt to weary of anything which keeps them confined too much to chairs, A good ice préaker would be a pretty game in flag colors.

EDITOR, by the most nearly genuine ~ statistick $3,000,000 are burned off of America by each annual July # This are sufficient to built 1 of them battleships what Congress feel too poor to vote. Six hundred persons is entirely killed by a@his yearly bang- up. Such a number would make a very nice crew for such a battleship. They might sail it & never enjoy death until old age do it. Would it not be a splendid plan for all Americans to avoid purchase of firework for 1 year & sent the money to Senator Beverage to buy such a petriotic boat? might be painted of red colorseto re- semble firecrackers & would be a float- ing monument to all brave Americans who did not die on July 4. I suggest an earnest thought. Ah, Mr. Editor, I can hear you said something with sweet voice! I can hear you said, ‘“‘That Japanese School- boy have a soul in his feet; else why he make such a rail against July 4, when all them fireworks is burned for glory are of Japanese parentage?’ Quite so truthful it are for you to speek this, Mr. Editor. Sky-rocket, pinny-wheel, flower-pottery, nigger- chase & Romantic-candle fireworks was formerly of Japanese parentage, but they was very temperate & well-be- It were when they began to be manufactured in New Jersey that they .became boy- strous, disappated & disorderly shoots.

Pretty soon it was dark, then Hon. Daimo would set afire one flower-pottery filled with gunpowder. Sky was filled with flery blossoms to resemble botany. “That are a lily-plant of firework,” say Hon. Daimo, ‘‘How you like?” “O how sweet!”’ declaim all guests bumping forehead with bissy polite- ness.

Boiled salmon and lamb regarded as conventional Fourth of MATTHEWS. | es HAT the poet wishes is to trans- W mit his thought and his emotion with as little friction as possible. He desires also to preserve his rhythm and to force his readers to read as he himself feels his rhythm. me likes to avoid therefore any spelling which per- mits the readers a choice between two pronunciations, one of which might spoil the swing of his line. He writes, “Blest be the tie that binds” when he desires blest to be a monosyl- lable, reserving blessed for the rare oc- casions when .e .wishes to have the -ed sounded, as in, “Blessed are the peace-makers.”’ When we spell ‘blessed’ the readers do not know whether the poet desires them to prdnounce ‘“‘blest’’ or ‘‘blessed.’’ (And in this article it has been neces- sary to put an accent on the second e in ‘‘tblessed’’ and in other past participles to make its pronunciation clear to the eye.) Probably this is the reason why (and not ‘‘dropped’’) in Shakspeare, Dryden, Burns, Tennyson and Lowell, and why we find “‘kist’’ (and not ‘“‘kissed’’) In Spenser, Shakspeare, Milton and Tennyson. So ‘“‘stept’ was preferred by Milton, Dryden, Keats and Tennyson, and “‘propt’’ by Dryden, Ten- nyson and Lowell. *Blusht” is in Shakspeare and Burns; ‘cares?’ (for ‘“‘carressed’’) is in Burns; ‘‘confest”’ is in Milton, Dryden and Pope; ‘“‘dipt’”’ is in Milton, Tennyson and Lowell; ‘‘drest’’ is in Spenser, Dryden and Tennyson; “droopt” is in Tennyson; ‘‘heapt”’ is in Ben Johnsoyg, Milton and Lowell; “‘lapt’’ is in Shakspeare, Tennyson and Lowell; ‘‘mixt’’ is in Shakspeare, Milton and Ad- dison; ‘“‘tost’’ is in Shakspeare, slilton, Dryden, Keats and Lowell; ‘wisht’’ is in Spenser, Shakspeare and Miltgn Spenser uses whichever form’ of the past participle suits his rhythmic scheme, sometimes putting both in the same line, but always indicating by the spelling the pronunciation he desires the réader to accept: “But ‘pass-ed’ forth, and still forward right,’’ and again: “Withall she ‘laugh-ed’ she ‘blusht’ withall.”’ And we find the same use of both ter. minations in a single line—to make sure that its rhythm shall be preserved—in Heywood's ‘“‘Troja Britannica’ (1609): “He first ‘tild, ploud, sowd, reapt and fin-ed’ gold.” (Neither Spenser nor Heywood accent- ed the -ed; but the rhythm reveals their insistence on its pronunciation.) In a single line of “Harold,” Tenny- son puts two of these simpler spellings: “The dog that ‘snapt’ the shadow, ‘dropt’ the bone.” Probably in his use of the simpler forms Lowell was following the Eliza- bethans he loved devotedly. sustained by their example and holding that the spelling of Shakspeare was “good enough for him.” Tennyson, however, was consciously choosing the simpler form just as Milton had done—choosing it deliberately as fitter for the pur- poses of poetry. Like Milton, Tenny- son was a most accomplisht craftsman, possessing a marvelous mastery of the teehnic of verse; and, like Milton, once more, he was punctilious and fastidious ‘lookt’ and in his orthography. Milton knew what he was dajng when he wrote ‘“‘sovran” Triumph in Defeat. e Tennessean was smiling blandly q the day after the primaries. “Your side got the wofst of it,” he was reminded. ” “True, suh,” he replied, ‘“‘but a mere detali.

A novel departure from the timeworn style of entertainments is a Fourth of July breakfast, and besides it is strictly in keeping with the colonial times when it was considered perfectly proper to in- vite guests to the early morning meal. We have heard our grandmothers tell how stately dames and courtly gentle- and not “‘sovereign,’’ just as Matthew Arnold and Lowell knew what they were doing when they wrote ‘‘technic’’ and not ‘‘technique.’’ It was probably from Milton that Charles Lamb took “sov- ran;”’ and this simpler form has been preferred by some later writers to the misleading “sovereign,’’ which misrep- resents both the sound and the deriva- tion.

Fletcher whep Oastoria is called for; the “delicate, faint and flickering light” that joins baby’s life to its devoted parents being too sacred to the self-respecting druggist, to be trifled with. For over thirty years Mr, Fletcher has given, and still gives, his pervend attention to the preparation-of Castoria. It has won the confidence of mothers and physicians everywhere—never harmed the tiniest babe. This cannot be sald of Imitations, Counterfeits and the “ Just-as-good” rot. The thoughtless druggist only offers the counterfeit because of a few pennies more profit.

During our long experience~in the drug business we have abundant occasion to note the popularity of the genuine Fletcher's toria, which we unhesitatingly recommend.” Brannen & Anthony of Atlanta, Ga, say: “No doubt if we were upon to state positively what medicine we bad sold for the greatest of time, the greatest number of bottles sold, and the most preparation to us and also to the customer, we feel that we could and conscientiously say Fletcher’s Castoria.” CENUINE CASTORIA ALWAYS ; ¢ di sabe Beh, TT te ne Trew : id trpeer : shy of rec? i. tee i 7) +} ppt ¥ on bts ’ $ ny is ES Tht Rei ewes ’ henaniian on 4atlie ness and Res Contains neler Not NaRct nor M NARCOTIC. | -AtO month 4 old 35 Dosts = 35% tNTS ——— : wee | ag The Kind You Have Always Bo In Use For Over 3 30 Years,

Strang, train dispatcher for the Missouri Pa- cific there, had been summoned to ap- pear before the Coroner’s jury which is investigating Thursday’s wreck near Knobnoster, in which 10 persons, at least four of them St. Louisans, were killed and 37, a majority of them from S&8t. Louis, were injured. The dispatcher will be questioned as to the reason why an order to hold west- bound passenger train No. 3 at Lamonte was not sent in time to prevent its head- on collision with eastbound passenger No. 12, just east of Knobnoster. . The bodies of Baggageman Campbell and Express Messenger Welsh, both of St. Louis, were recovered Friday. Camp- bell’s widow lives at 7527 Vermont ave- nue. Early accounts of the wreck gave his address as Jefferson City. No. 3 had been oraered held at La- monte for No. 12 to pass. The operator at Lamonte got the message too late to hold No. 3, and with no right operator at the next station, Knobnoster, the or- der could not be given to stop No. 12 there. A futile effort was made to reach Knobnoster by telephone, but no one could be aroused. The crash occurred at 5:20 a. m. Thursday, just east of Knob- noster. Tragic News Withheld. Some of the injured men were brought to St. Louis on a train arriving at Union Station late Thursday night. Some were taken to their homes, some to the Mis- souri Pttcific Hospital. Walter B. Welsh, messenger on traia No. 3, lived at 2026A Aller avenue, with his wife and 4-months-old baby. Mrs. Welsh is in poor heaith,zand the news of her husband's death has been with- held from her. Frisby, another of those killed, lived at 1019 South Thirteenth street. He was on his way to San Francisco, where he had promise of employment. | His wife says she had protested against his going.

ST, LOUIS CASES SETTLED BY MISSOURI SUPREME COURT Speciad to the Post-Dispatch. JEFFERSON CITY, Mo., July 3.—Di- vision No. 1 of the Missouri Supreme Court met today and handed down opin- ions in 26 cases and adjourned unth July 14. The court holds in the case of Bridget McFadden and Mary O'Malley against the grand lodge of the Ancient Order o” United Workmen, that Mrs. McFad- den is entitled to all the premfums paid on her husband’s policy with six per cent from the time each payment was made, and to pay the balance to Mary O’ Malley. When Michael McFadden first took out his policy with the A. O. U. W. for $2000, he assigned his wife, Bridgét, as his beneficiary. After a separation he changed this to the name of his adopted daughter, Mary O'Malley. McFadden died in 1908 and both the widow and daughter claimed the insurance money. The court affirmed the judgment in favor of the James H. Forbes Tea & Coffee Co. of St. Louis, which was sued by Carrie Bradley for $5000. She al- leged her husband who had been work- ing for this company, lost his life as a result of the company’s negligence. The’ court holds an accident which caused his death was not due to the company’s negligence. Louls Houck, the well-known Missouri railroad man, will not wave to pay damages in a suit for $175,000. accord- ing to an opinion handed down by Judge Lamm. The Donaldson Bond & Stock Co sued Houck for,preparing and sub- mitting a successful plan for capitaliz- ing one of Houck’'s roads.

CLEVELAND, O., July 3.—The will of Benjamin Rose, who died suddenly in London on Sunday, was filed in the Probate Court yesterday.

The buildings are .to be erect- ed on the 20-acre Rose estate on Lake Shore boulevard. RESCUER IN LIMELIGHT AGAIN Ben Horracks, a city employe of 1438 North Ninth street, who recently achieved fame in rescuing two drown- ing persons from the river, is in the spotlight again. Horracks was on his way horme Thursday night when a car which he attempted to board at Broad- way and Clark avenue started before he gained the step and he fell in the gutter. He says the car gave a sudden jump while his foot was on the step. The car crew say he fell attempting to reach the car. At any rate, Horracks got up and gave the conductor “a piece of his mind.” Officer Stinger came along about that time and Eorracks will an-

WALL STREET SECURITIES. ARE UNCHANGED a. -

Friday’s Session on New York Exchange Establishes Rec- ord for Inactivity.

NEW YORK, July 3.—10 a. m.—The near approach of July 4, when business on the Exchange will be suspended, may be responsible for the extraordinary dullness in the market at the opening this morning. At the end of the first 15 minutes only a small percentage of stocks had spened, and these were either at parity or the smallest fraction from the closing figures. Smelting, Steel preferred, St. Paul, Great Northern and Reading registered no changes in their opening quota- tions. Amalgamated Copper was % higher and Steel common % lower. At the end of the first half hour’ such stocks as Atchison, Brooklyn, Rapid Transit, Missouri Pacific, Baltimore & Ohio, Canadian Pacific, Pennsylvania and the vast majority of the industrials had not opened. The character of the market may be judged from the fact that only one stock in five showed any transactions in the first half hour. Americans in London were heavy and from % to % lower. NEW YORK, July 3, 12:30 p. m—A established by the stock market during the forenoon hours Fridafw From the opening to noon only 36,900 shares were sold. There was practically no trading and therefore no price move- ments worthy of note. With a few unimportant exceptions, the market was at parity at noon.

While this is a most unfavorable comparison with the S607 in- solvencies for $69,568,662 in the correspond- ing months of the preceding year, there is much encouragement in the pronounced im- provement of the latest returns.

STOCK GOSSIP In the first hour transactions on Wall street Friday were the smallest for that pe- riod any day since 1896.

ST. LOUIS MONEY MARKET. There is a peculiar situation, according to dealers in commercial paper. Makers refuse to arrange in any extensive way for fall commitments and the result is that there ig still a great deal of competition among the banking institutions with rates held down throu the lack of supplies. The Eastern market !{s no: precise criterion for St. Louis, despite statements to the con- trary by outsiders. It is, however, a very important and guid- ing influence in the local transactions. and to @ great extent establishes the rates.

Ready for he: Fourth? One Day More Till Willie . Picks It Up to See Why ‘It Didn’t Explode. HOW HE CAN BE SAVED

New ‘Treatment Will Avert Lockjaw if Victims Will Act Promptly.

Boys and girls stood in line in the Mayor's office Friday to get fireworks permits. “They'll be standing in line at the | Dispensary tomorrow,’’ remarked one man who has seen many Fourths of July. Secretary Connett and the police ser- gcant who helped him issue the. per- mits seemed to be more hopeful. “Be careful, boys,’’ they cautioned the re- cipients of the permits. And the boys and girls said they would. But will they? To judge from the records of previous Fourths in St. Louis about 200 of them will not be, and the results will range from blistered fingers to lockjaw and blindness. What the Fourth Costs, In the past five Fourths there have been 1151 persons,i mostly children, killed in celebrating the Fourth of July /{n the United States—more, a historian bas estimated, than the number of American soldiers killed in any battle of the Revolutionary War. Even this does not show all the deaths caused by blank cartridges, toy ‘@annons, cannon crackers and set pieoes. _Bome of the persons who contract te- tanus from Fourth of July injuries live for weeks and die after the estimates for the year have been made up. In each of these years the number of injurd has run from 4000 to 5400, or more than twice the number of the British killed and wounded by Andrew Jack- gon'’s men in the battle of New Orleans. New methods of treating tetanus have reduced the death list and it has been much smaller in the years since 1903 than it was before. But no boy cares about having antitoxin pumped into his arm through a doctor’s sharp needle. That is the only thing that is depended on to keep lockjaw away, once the hand or the face is powder burned, Most of the accidents will be avoided if the celebrators ‘will let pistols and blank cartridges alone, will take no chances with cannon crackers and will not pick up fireworks to see why they have not gone off as soon as expected. How te Treat Injuries. But when there is an injury, in spite of care or for lack of it, the quicker the doctor’s office is reached the better. Before the doctor comes, or on the way to him, the wound should be washed, @o that every particle of dirt will be removed, and should not be bandaged in such a way as to keep the air out. Most doctors are agreed that the best thing to do is to give tetanus antitoxin and to bandage the wound 8o as to per- mit the secretions to escape and the air to enter. Science has got so far along in con- quering tetanus that there would be very few deaths if treatment were be- gun promptly. ‘he deaths that occur now are in cases that are taken to the physician too late. Most of them are injuries which seemed too small to bother the doctor with at first. It should be borne in mind that the small- } est wound which carries dirt or any foreign substance to the blood may cause lockjaw. | The Fourth of July has been no dead- lier in St. Louls than in other places. But there have been numerous deaths, and not a year has passed without eyes destroyed or fingers, arms and legs torn off. Few Casualties tn 1900; One of the exceptions was in the year 1900, when the street car strike was going on. So that they would be able to tell a dynamite explosion when they heard ene, the police ordered no fire- crackers or other explosives used, and the day passed with few casualties. One of the other years when injuries were few was the World's Fair year, 1904, when the Democratic National Convention was held in the city. Chil. dren and nups had \too much else to think a o care f firecrackers. year and year before the num- ber injured in St. Louis approached 200, and blank cartridges, in which tetanus germs seem to take up all the blank espace, have caused nearly one-half the total of deaths. Pistola to Be Confiscated, Chief of Police Creecy has issued in- etructiona to the captains of each of the police districts to rigidly enforce the city laws regarding the discharge of fireworks on the Fourth of July. “The Fourth in St. Louis must be sane,”’ Chief Creecy said Friday, “and the police will see that it is, as far as possible.’ The Chief personally conferred with fach of his captains Friday morning, and gave them their instructions. He told them just how far patriotism could #°, and issued orders for the prompt ervest of all offepders. Pistols, in particular, are under the ban. All persons found discharging such weapons, or having them in their possession will be arrested, and the pistoia will be thrown into the river. Torpedoes on car tracks are also tabooed, This is a distinct violation of the city ordinance and anyone found gan torpedoes, dynamite aps and other explosives on street car rails will be arrested. “What will happen to the small boy | he places torpedoes on the car trac turday?’’ Chief Creecy was asked. “It all depends on the nature of the torpedo, and how far the small bo 7 one it,’ replied the Chief, wit i “pauctne’ | ain’ be etoile . zd su pressed, as far as possible. “3 Ne Dynamite Allewed, .
