FRANCIS IN THE CASE

St. Louisan Figures With Oth- er Prominent Men in Testimony.

DES MOINES, Io., Aug. 12.—Fred M. C. Choate, who lost in his sensational efforts to get the custody of his little girl, in the District Court here yester- day, tried to commit suicide today by gcvering an artery in his left arm. He Was taken to the office of Dr. Lamberta, his brother-in-law, with whom his wife has been stopping, and there an effort was made to save his life. Choate is a nephew of former Ambas- gador Joseph Hodgeg Choate, and a grandson of Rufus Choate, the great lawyer. For three hours tday pretty black-eyed Ione Choate battled with shrewd lawyers by her husband, Fred M. Choate, to prove to Judge Miller that ghe was a proper person to care for their dauchter, 56-year-old Mary Choate. id , She. went over her life in detail from the time she was a country lass, Ione Kempthorn, daughter of wealthy Judge Kempthorn of Hampton. Name of Francis Mentioned, The story described scenes in leading cities of the world and involved some of the best-known names of the United States and England, including Elihu Root, Secretary of State, former Gov. D. R. Francis of Missouri, and in a re- mote way President Roosevelt, when Vice-President. She told a story of abuse and cruelty running from neglect, desertion, fnability and failure to pro- vide necessaries of life, to the actual drawing of a revolver and threatening to shoot her, when she left him. She denied he took her from a New York restaurant as a waitress and kept her, and declares that her father al- ways supplied her with money, and that since their marriage the father has made them an allowance of $50 a month. Wanted More Money. She declared Choate always was pleading with her to ask her father for more money. Mrs. Choate filed suit for divorce, but ' Judge Miller refused to allow its being brought in an lowa court on the ground of non-residence, Mrs. Choate having come to Iowa but one week ago. At the close of court Mrs. Choate’s attorney made a proposition to Choate to settle “the fight for the child, but it was re- , ; fused. Choate, while in St. Louis,’ was coun- Bellor to Gov. Francis. Desperate because Judge Miller denied his writ of habeas corpus and turned their little child, Mary, over to the mother, who declares she never again love her husband, Choate had been acting in a strange manner all day. Fight Causes Sensation, The fight in the District Court for possession of the Choate child has been _ @ two-days’ sensation in Des Moines. > filo D te t '.Tevelver and: returned. Mrs. Choate is a remarkably beautiful woman, with jet black hair and eyes, and it is said that she was accounted the most beautiful woman on the Expo- sition grounds at St. Louis. Her husband was at that time draw- ing a good salary, she testified, enter- taining politicians and dignitaries who attended the Exposition.

Wednesday how they broke into the factories of the McCabe-Powers Car- riage Co. and the Republic Tire Co., at 1217 and 1219 North wroadway, and tried to break open a safe with hammers. “We'd have done it, too, if Freddie Baker hadn't got cold feet,’’ said Eddie. “‘He’s only 8 years old. The police say that the boys turned on the lights and started all the machinery in the two factories, so that persons passing would not suspect that anything Was wrong while they were trying to open the safe. Turned On Machinery. “If we turned on the machinery we didn’t know it,’’ said Eddie; ‘“‘we only meant to turn on the lights.”’ Policemen passing the big building at midnight, six hours after attempt at robbery, saw that the factories were lit up and the wheels were going around. They sent for an officer of the car- riage company and enteted the bulld- ing with him, The combination knob had been knocked off the tire com- pany’s safe and its outer door~was opened. Another safe also had been tampered with. There were prints of bare feet in the office and in the basement. Geta Idea in Nickelodeon, Other boys in. the neighborhood told them that Eudie Carey and Frank Ol- sen had been seen near the factory earlier in the evening. They were arrested at their homes in a genement at 504 O'Fallon street. At first they denied the attempt at bur- glary, but after they had been taken back to the factory and their feet had been found to fit the tracks they con- fessed. ae “My sister Mary she's 14, told me a story about burglars and how they opened a safe,” said Eddie Carey. “She said it was an awful bad thing to do, but I thought it was easy. Then I saw a moving picture of a burglary in a nickelodeon. I thought about it all the time. But I wasn’t the leader last | night. “We were passing the factory and saw that a window pane on the alley side was broken. lrank Olsen crawled through and we followed him, “We went through the basement, climbed a ladder and pushed open a trapdoor to get in the office. On the way we picked up hammers in the base- ment, “It took us about an hour te knock the knob off the safe. Freddie Baker got scared and went home and told our mothers. ‘ ’“Mamma and Mra, Olsen came and Stoed outside hollering for us to come out.

CLEW TO A LENOX PLACE TRAGEDY WEARS FEATHERS Patrolmen on the Beat Vow Little Blinking Screech Owl Will “Get His” Some Night. ‘“Bang!"" went the ever-ready night- stick of Patrolman Marshall on the granitoid of fashionable Lenox place last night. ““Ye-ow-ow, hoo-00-00-00!” an unearthly cry. “Bang! Bang!’’ returned the man, pacing his solitary round. “bangs” is police sign language “Help! There’s something doing.”’ A}! the other patrolmen who walk the aris- tocratic precincts of the West End re- sponded, and their steps were quick- ened by a repetition of the eerle cry, this time coming above their heads. Not a light shone from the residences of Lee Benoist, Edward XK. Love or any other of the well-knawn St. Louisans who live in Lenox place, near Euclid avenue. Roused servants muttered and said things when they heard the policemen without. It surely was a mystery, this unearthly cry. For the rest of the night even a shadow would arouse the sus- picions of the policemen, who had vis- ions dark and deep of some tragedy which couldn't be explained. In the branches of a spreading elm tree early today a squinting screech owl blinked, It’s the same kind of a bird that caused Creve Coeur Lake such a scare a fortnight ago. The first time it’s seen when the moon is high enough to allow good aim from a police revolver, all the bluecoats on the beat vow the owl will he heard no more.

Couricilman “ Norvell Gives Credit to Mr: Fitzsimmons and the Newspaper.

After the City Council at Tuesday's meeting had approved the Westliche- Post’s contract to do the city printing at 5 cents a Hne, Councilman Norvell arose and said: “I wish to congratulate Mr. Fitzsim- mons and the Post-Dispatch on their victory.” Then he walked over to Mr. Fitzsim- mons’ desk and said: “This is indeed a substantial victory for which you and the Post-Dispatch deserve great credit.”’ “The, rate of 5 cents is still too high,” said Mr. Fitzsimmons Wednes- day, “but the Post-Dispatch and mem- bers of the Council who opposed the Original bid of 7 cents have at least forced the German papers to ack- nowledge that they were charging too much, “I voted for the contract on a 5- cent basis because I considered the reduction showed that the principle on which the higher bid was opposed was correct.” Councilman Crunden in voting for the new contract, explained that he believed there is no necessity for printing the city advertising in Ger- man, The substantial -reduction in the printing bid was due to the persistent work of the Post-Dispatch in expos- ing the Plunderbund’s methods of gouging the city, at the same time charging commercial advertisers, who used much less space, only from 2 to 3 cents a line. Although the rate of 5 cents a line is still regarded by members of the City Council as excessive and extor- tionate, they approved it on account of the necessity of having the city printing done in German,

Marguerite Hilton, 17 years old, who traveled from her home at Paragould, Ark., to be a chorus girl in a comic opera company, and was rejected, she says, because she “wasn't shaped right,” found a good Samaritan at Un- ion Station Wednesday.

ASKS EXPLANATION: HIT Actor Suspects Woman Whom ‘Soldier Knows of Writ- ing Missive, Specte!] to the Post-Dispatch, STAMFORD, Conn., Aug. 12—Leo Ditrichstein, playwright and actor-man- ager, who wrote “Are You a Mason?’ and other plays, got in a fight yester- day with Maj. Frederick Schavoir, sur- geon on the staff of Col. Fitch, com-| manding the Third Connecticut Regi- ment. Mrs. Ditrichstein received an anonym- ous letter which offended her greatly | and she suspected it was written by a woman whom Maj. Schavoir knows. She is prominent socially in Stamford, and is a close friend of an actress, a star, much admired in New York. Mrs. Dit- richstein gave the letter to her husband and asked him to investigate it. The actor met the soldier, who is much the larger man, in a garage. By Ditrich- stein’s account of what followed, Maj. Schavoir struck him without warning. Certainly, Ditrichstein, whe has a black eye, did not get the better of the en- counter. Suspects Major’s Friend, “I do not want to talk about the iet- ter; it will figure in the courts,” said Ditrichstein. “I suspect a woman. She is a friend of Maj. Schavoir, whom I had never met up to the time of this encounter. “We met by accident and were intro- duced at his request. I wanted to talk to him about the letter and. suggested that we go where there was no one to listen. “As I stood with my hands in my pockets, talking about the letter, the Major suddenly struck me a stinging blow in the face and then jumped on me and punched me. I weigh 140 pounds and he weighs 250, so you see I had no chance with him. I ealled for help and Several persons separated us. have placed the matter tn my lawyef's hands, but aside from that I intend to repay Schavoir in his own coin.” Playwright Feared Scandal, Ditrichstein refused to explain what he meant by this statement. He sald he had tried “‘to make things easy, as the matter was likely to stir up a lot of scandal.”’ Maj.” Schavoir is & member of the Weeburn Golf, Suburban, Stamford Yacht and other clubs. Ditrichstein married Mrs. Josephine Knoop in 1896. Clyde Fitch was best man. She is the daughter of Christian Woehrle, then proprietor of the Hotel Belvedere, New York. She and her first husband, Louis T. Knoop, brought cross suits for divorce. Knoop alleged that Ditrichstein had been too friendly with Mrs. Knoop. In her suit Mr ° named Mrs. Sarah Nadel as thats 9 ent and, to the surprise of every one Mrs. Nadel admitted the charges, Mrs Knoop married Ditrichstein a month after her divorce.

The young man, Jan Sokolowski, fled from Russia a year and three months ago to escape compulsory enlistment in the army. His father and mother were dead. He had little money, could not speak English, and his ideas of Amer- ican people and customs were vague. He had heard, however, that across the geas was a land where citizenship is not a matter of uniforms and muskets go he set out for the United States. Makes Few Acquaintances. He worked his way to Liverpool, gtaking few acquaintances while he journeyed, becaus¢ he knew that when he left his home in the Gubernia Minsk, the Russian Government had placed a price on his head. At Liver- pool he shipped for Philadelphia, and on the voyage he met a fellow coun- tryman, Antoni Szwabo, who told him that he would find employment for him in St. Louis. The two young Russians reached St. Zouis @ year ago. The army fugitive made an uncertain living at odd jobs in the Russian colony in the vicinity of Twentieth and O'Fallon streets. He could speak nothing but the language of his native country, and he found it hard to obtain a good position. Four weeks ago he became ill. His friend, Szwabo, could do little for him, end finally he was sent to the City Hos- pital. When he found himself surround- ei by the uniformed hospital attend- ants, whose language he could not un- derstand, he thought he had fallen into the hands of the Russian authorities and was doomed to be deported for exccution or for exile to the Siberian rines. Prayed in Queer Tongue. This fear preyed upon him until it ap- peared to affect his mind. For days at a time he knelt beside his bed, pray- i:.¢ in a tongue that the hospital attend- avis could not understand. Finally, con- vinced that he was insane, they sent him to the observation ward, where his k* Was worse. Szwabo called at the hospital to see his friend. He was told that the boy was to be deported by the immigration officials. Stwabo knew what that meant. He hastened to Father Stanowski and asked the priest to save the boy’s life. Father Stanowski visited the City Hospital Monday and asked for the bey’@ release, promising to take care of him. The hospital autiorittes referred the priest to Inspector Dunn of the Bureau of Immigration in the Chemica] Building. When Mr Dunn understood the conditions under which Jan had fied from his home, he consented to his re- lease under the condition that Father Sienowski would not permit him to be- come an object of perblic charity. Jan regained his freedom Monday night and was taken to Father Stanowski's home. Charity Surprises Him. When the boy realized that he was not to be sent back for punishment by the common enemy of the Russian peasants he tried>to express ‘is gratitude in money. By hard work he accumulated 5) cents and proffered it to Father Stan- owski. He could not understand that. even in America, there was any person who would befriend him without com- pensation. “Jan need not worry new,” said Fa- ther Stanowski to a Post-Dispatch re- porter Wednesday. - “He will be well taken care of. He is not an object of charity in any sense, except that he has found friénds who will provide for him until he ia able to do so himself.

BANK AND LIVED FRUGALLY FOR TIME, THEN SPLURGED His Purchase of Costly Piano Led to His Arrest—Returns Part of Money. KANSAS CITY, Mo,, Aug. 15.—George Wilcox, a negro, formerly employed as a janitor in the National Bank of Com- merce, last night confessed to the theft of a package containing $8500 from the bank on April 25, 1907. 4 Wilcox was arrested Monday. The evidence against him was laid before the grand jury, and an indictment was returned against him a few hours be- fore he confessed. After the confes- sion Wilcox led the officers to his home, where he dug out of the cellar a tin box said to contain $4000 of the missing money. Immediately after the disappearance of the money from the bank, Wilcox was suspected, but for a long time.no evi- dence was found against him. He was more frugal in his habits than before, and even borrowed money from loan sharks. Last September he left the service of the bank, and since then has worked only one week. He bought a few lots and built a modern home, furnishing it with the most elegant furniture, even to 4 costly piano. This extravagance led to his arrest.

It became more aggravated when he drank too much, and showed in worse form when he both ate too much and drank too much. This is said to have been about the time of the first banquet. ‘ Of later time much smoking and fol- lowing of sedentary occupations have added to the troubles of the liver, to say nothing of the effects of bad cook- ing by bad cooks, and the bolting of food by men-on-the-job of grabbing at the passing dollar. Most ordinary human ills come from neglecting the liver, and serious sick- ness always follows continued neglect. You can always tell when your liver needs attention, for it gives warni when it is tired, overworked, run down or is even only just lazy. and in; need of toning up. bs Sometimes you have sick headache, again a bilious spell. One time you be- come constipated, another you just have that tired-all-out feeling. Then you have stomach troubles and some. times bowel inflammation and fever.

The love for the man proved the stronger, so now Tony is puckering his litue face and clutch- ing his milk bottle in a cradle provided by a new mother. He was adopéed by Mrs. Johanna Broshous of 42%A ‘Gib- scn street. Apd that is what is worrying St. Louis, though it isn’t bothering little Mr. Karwowska himself. He doesn’t know that scores of letters about his family affairs are fouring into the Post-Dis- patch, and that fathers and mothers and sisters and »rothers are wrangling over his personal matters. He will not talk for publication, but people who are very close to him say he isn’t fretting about it. “Keep Baby; Let Husband Go.” Communications on *the subject of Tony began to reach the Post-Dispatch Monday, and they have been coming in steadily. Here are some of them: “You asked in Sunday’s paper, ‘Which is the woman’s stronger love—that for the husband, or for the child?’ “The two loves do not conflict, any more than do the wheels on the opposite side of a wagon, or anything that needs balance. And there is nothing that needs balance more than the love be- tween man and woman. “Mrs. Karwowska shou'd keep her baby and let her husband go. , “x. 8.” “If My Baby Goes, I Go.” This is the viewpoint of a wife and mother: “I am a wife and a mother. All the problems that confront either have been mine, I think, with the exception of that which Mrs. Karwowska faced. I have always solved them somehow-—- usually with the assistance of my hus- band. “I have have never imagined that a man could ask his wife to choose be- Mrs. Alice ea ia if that dilemma were mine, I do not think I should hesitate. I would meet it with a like proposition: ‘Choose be- tween your love of me and your lack of love for your child; for if you can- not have both you cannot have either. If my baby goes, I go too.’ ‘Then, either way he chose, he would get what he deserved. MRS. C.” Thinks Mother Was Right. “Thomas J.” thinks Mrs. wowska’'s course was justified. This is his letter: “Mrs. Karwowska is right. The man who has sworn to \provide fora woman should live up to his oath. If he finds he cannot perform that duty for both woman and child, he should sacrifice the child. And the woman who chooses between husband and child must have made a mistake when she married if she can give up the husband.” “Wife's” Home Open to Baby. “S Wife" would welcome Tony. She says: ° “I am asurprised that any woman would part with her baby in order to hold her husband. I am surprised that any husband would force his wife to an alternative like that. The only thing that is not surprising is the fact that the little castaway found another home. Real homes-——-my own, for instance—are always open to the baby.” Kar- Justified, Says “Mac.” A letter signed “Mac” has this to savy of the case: “OW hy should not a father and moth- er give away their offspring if they choose to do so? They have good precedent for such an act.

RUSSIAN YOUTH FROM EXECUTION Father Stanowski Goes to Aid of Hospital Patient About to Be Deported. FUGITIVE FROM ARMY Out of Observation Ward, Young Man Is Seeking Employment. Penniless, homeless and a!l but friend- less, a 22-year-old Russian today is the happiest man in St. Louis. For Father ' Urban Stanowski of St. Stanislaus’ Cath- olic Church, 1413 North Twentieth street. has saved him from execution by the Russian soldiery, or from worse, exile to Siberia for life. The young man, Jan Sokolowski, fled from Russia a year and three months ago to escape compulsory enlistment in the army. His father and mother were dead. He had littlé money, could not speak English, and his ideas of Amer- ican people and customs were vague. He had heard, however, that across the geas was a land where citizenship is not a matter of uniforms and muskets go he set out for the United States. Makes Few Acquaintances. He worked his way to Liverpool, staking few acquaintances while he journeyed, becaus¢ he knew that when he left his home in the Gubernia Minsk, the Russian Government had placed a price on his head. At Liver- ‘ pool he shipped for Philadelphia, and on the voyage he met a fellow coun- tryman, Antoni! Szwabo, who told him that he would find employment for him in St. Louls, The two young Russians reached St. ZJouis a year ago. The army fugitive geade an uncertain living at odd jobs in the Russian colony in the vicinity of Twentieth and O'Fallon streets. He could speak nothing but the language of his native country, and he found it hard to obtain a good position. Four weeks ago he became ill: His friend, Szwabo, could do little for him, and finally he was sent to the City Hos- pital. When he found himself surround- ei by the uniformed ‘hospital attend- ants, whose language he could not un- derstand, he thought he had fallen into the hands of the Rtissian authorities and was doomed to be deported for execution or for exile to the Siberian rrines. Prayed in Queer Tongue. This fear preyed upon him until it ap- peared to affect his mind. For days at a time he knelt beside his bed, pray- i:.¢ in a tongue that the hospital attend- avis could not understand. Finally, con- vinced that he was insane, they sent him to the observation ward, where his k* Was worse. Szwabo called at the hospital to sé®e his friend. He was told that the boy was to be deported by the immigration officials. Szwabo knew what that meant. H« hastened to Father Stanowski and asked the priest to save the boy’s life. Father Stanowski visited the City Hospital Monday and asked for the bcy"s release, mising to take care of him. The hospital autivorities referred the ‘priest to Inspector Dunn of the Bureau of Immigration in the Chemical Bullding. When Mr. Dunn understood the conditions under which Jan had filed from his home, he consented to his re- Jease under the condition that Father Sienowski would not permit him to be- Come an object of perblic charity. Jan regained his freedom Monday night and was taken to Father Stanowski's home. Charity Surprises Him. ‘When the boy realized that he was not to be sent back for punishment by the common enemy of the Russian peasants he tried>to express his gratitude in money. By hard work he accumulated 6) cents and proffered it to Father Stan- owski. He could not understand that. even in America, there was any person who would befriend him without com- pensation. “Jan need not worry new,” said Fa- ther Stanowski to a Post- Dispatch re- porter Wednesday. “He will be well taken care of. He is not an object of charity in any sense, except that he has d friends who will provide for him until he ia able to do so himself. Now that he is free and has regained his health he is anxious to get to work, and ate what we are trying to find for 80,000 CATHOLICS TO PARADE Archbishop Glennon Plans Display at Laying of Cornerstone.

Origin of Liver Trouble. Trouble with the liver began when man began to eat more than was good for him. It became more aggravated when he drank too much, and showed in worse form when he both ate too much and drank too much, This is said to have been about ra time of the first banquet. Of later time much smoking and fol- lowing of sedentary occupations have added to the troubles of the liver, to say nothing of the effects of bad cook: ing by bad cooks, and the bolting of food by men-on-the-job of grabbing at the passing dollar. Most ordinary human ills come from neglecting the liver, and serious sick- ness always follows continued neglect. You can always tell when your liver needs attention, for it gives warning when it is tired, overworked, run down or is even only just lazy. and in’ need of toning up. Sometimes you have sick headache, again a bilious spell. One time you be. come constipated, another you just have that tired-all-out feeling. Then you have stomach troubles and some- times bowel inflammation and fever. Jaundice, too, is one of the liver’s ways of warning } you.

At the green old age of one month, Tony Karwowska is one of St. Louis’ best-known citizens. Though he doesn’t know it, tiny Tony is table talk in nearly every home in ‘the city. Tony is the small sir who was 1é- linquished by his mother, Mrs. Alice Karwowska, of 1429 North Ninth street, when she was forced to choose between husband and child. The love for the man proved the stronger, so now Tony is puckering his litue face and clutch- ing his milk bottle in a cradle provided by a new mother. He was adopéeed by Mrs. Johanna Broshous of 42%5A ‘Gib- scn street. dad that is what is worrying St. Louis, though it isn’t bothering little Mr. Karwowska himself. He doesn’t know that scores of letters about his family affairs are fouring into the Post-Dis- patch, and that fathers and mothers and sisters and vrothers are wrangling over his personal matters. He will not talk for publication, but people who are very close to him say he isn’t fretting about it. “Keep Baby; Let Husband Go.” Communications on the subject of Tony began to reach the Post-Dispatch Monday, and they have been coming in steadily. Here are some of them: “You asked in Sunday’s paper, ‘Which is the woman’s stronger love—that for the husband, or for the child?’ “The two loves do not conflict, any more than do the wheels on the opposite side of a wagon, or anything that needs balance. And there is nothing that needs balance more than the love be- tween man and woman. “Mrs. Karwowska shou!d keep her baby and let her husband go. ‘oa: “If My Baby Goes, I Go.” This is the viewpoint of a wife and mother: “I am a wife and a mother. All the problems that confront either have been mine, 1] think, with the exception of that which Mrs. Karwowska faced. I have always solved them somehow-- usually with the assistance of my hus- band, “IT have have never imagined that a man could ask his wife to choose be- tween her husband and her child.

I would meet it with a like proposition: ‘Choose be- tween your love of me and your lack of love for your child; for if you can- not have both you cannot have either. If my baby goes, I go too.’ “Then, either way he chose, he would get what he deserved. MRS. C.”’ Thinks Mother Was Right. “Thomas J.” thinks Mrs. wowska’s course was justified. This is his letter: “Mrs. Karwowska is right. The man who has sworn to \provide for a woman should live up to his oath. If he finds he cannot perform that duty [« for both woman and child, he should sacrifice the child. And the woman who chooses between husband and child must have made a mistake when she married if she can give up the husband.’ “Wife's” Home Open to Baby. “S Wife” would welcome Tony. She says: - “I am surprised that any woman would part with her baby in order to hold her husband. I am surprised that any husband would force his wife to an alternative like that. The only thing that is not surprising is the fact that the little castaway found another home. Real homes-——my own, for instance—are always open to the baby.’ Kar- Justified, Says “Mac.” A letter signed “Mac” has this to say of the case: ‘Why should not a father and moth- er give away their offspring if they choose to do so? They have good precedent for such an act. Rousseau, in some respects the greatest French- man that ever lived, put all of his ehildren in a foundling asylum soon after they were born, and he never saw or heard of one of them after- ward.

Woods has concussion of the brain, a lacerated scalp and a dislocated right shoulder. The accident occurred at 8:30 p. m., Tuesday, as Woods was at- tempting to cross the street. Witnesses say that the automobile was running 3 miles an hour, and Berkley admits he was running 18 miles an hour. Berkley and his brother George, who were in the automobile, say they did not see the machine strike Wcods. Berk- ley said he had the automobile under control, and that as he attempted to dodge Woods a tire burst, causing the automobile to skid. Youn Berkley was taken a the Manchester Avenue Police Station. He was relea two — later on a $1000 bond signed by ‘ uncle, Robert F. Berkley, 30.

A fight encounter between the Nessel and Hall families began when Mrs. Mary Nessel threw a lamp from her yard across the alley into the Hall yard, at 1623 South Thirteenth street, and struck Charles Hall on the fore- head. It became a heavy engagement when Mrs. Annie Hall hurled the biggest stone in her backyard clear into the rear door #6f the Nessel abode, 1626 South Fourteenth street, and, by rebound, against the head of Mrs. Nessel. Jesse and Mary Nessel and Charles and Annie Hall, the contending couples; Oliver, 16-year-old son of the Halls, and two witnesses of the combat, Wil- liam Slazek and Dan Grieser, were ar- raigned in Judge Tracy’s court Wednes- day on the crossest kind of cross- charges. The case was continued to Aug. i9. Dog Caused It All, The cause of it all, and of another prosecution, which is still in the future, was the Halls’ dog. Alvina Slazék, 11- year-old sister of Mrs. Nessel, was bit- ten by the dog, and the Nessels got a summons to compel the Halis to hay the dog killed. , The Hails announced that thetr dog’s life was a thing they would protect with their own lives.

the people and the representa- gives of predatory wealth. Mr. Taft if had raised this questien, . said .. Bryan, by referring to ‘known * ef government. (He then quoted President Roosevelt's age of last January describing the of predatory wealth to discredit . administration and all who seck | SD reckedty to enforce the laws. » Mr. Taft, he said, had indorsed the . President's arraignment and had teld , how within the past 10 years men in their hurry for«wealth lad forgotten to , @bey the common rules of honesty and “) @bedience. to law. Recalling that during al! this time Re- » publican officials had been in power, Mr. Bryan said: “Hewing drawn the salaries; having | desoyes the honers; having secured the “ prestige, let the Republican party ac- 4 cept the responsibility!” Republicans Have Neo Excuse. “There Was no excuse, he contended, be the Republican failure to check Sa evils, since it had the power and the necessary laws to stop them were onthe statute books. Mr. Taft would ve no greater opportunities than his The tariff, Mr. Bryan referred to as an instance of Republican shortcomings. The President had made promises and . Mr. Taft was restive under the restraint of the high tariff men, but the infiu- ence ef manufactirers, who had con- tributed to Republican campaign funds, had been sufficient to prevent revision. Even now, he said, the Republican promise of revision after the election | was so hedged about with qualifying Clauses that nobody can estimate the sum total of tariff reform that might be expected from the Republican party. ‘The Republican Senate had refused in the past to consider an anti-trust law after public opinion had forced the lower House to enact it. For 10 years the Republican Congress was deaf to the pleas of the Interstate Commerce on.for more power. The Re- ~~ ~-publican platforms of 1900 and 1904 were ” silent on the question of railroad legis- Jation. When the President asked such elegisiation Mr. Bryan charged that he drew his inepiration from Democratic ' ‘platforms. La Follette Made lIasue. (Then when Senator La Follette offered , amendments embodying the recom- a ‘mendations of the Interstate Commerce 2¥Sommission, the Republican Senate ~ woted them down and the last Repub- Mean convention voted against that s@mendment providing for the physical ) Wealuation of railroads. ry, “Mr, Taft complains of the over-issue ES stocks and bonds of railroads, for apne unlawful ate of directors and :

why should that fact be concealed un- til his friends are securely seateu in their official positions?” . ow can the people hope to rule,”’ he asked; until aftef®the election what’ predatory interests are ing? The Democratic party meets @° issue honestly and courageously. It Says: *“*We pledge the Democratic: party to the enactment of a law prohibiting any corporation from contributing to a cam- paign fund,.and any individual from contributing an amount above a reasona- ble maximum, and providing tor the publication, before election, of all such contributions above a reasonable ‘mini- mum.’ ” He told how the Democratic National Committee had immediately begun the application of its plank in the: present campaign by decreeing that no sub- scription of more than $10,000 would be received from orle individual and that all centributions of more than $100 would be made public before election day. Calls Senatorial Elections an Issue. He described the impediments Repub- lican congresses had put in the way of the popular movement for popular elec- tion of United States senators. Repub- lican platforms, he said, had ignored it in 1900 and 1904 and had specifically re- jected it in 1908. This Republican attitude, he declared, disproved Mr. Taft's view that the pop-. ularelection of senators was not a party question. The fact that Mr. Taft per- sonally believed in the principle, Mr. Bryan argued, did not change the situa- tion. The Democratic party was form- ally pledged to the principle and the Re- publican party had formally refused to accept the principle. “Shall the people rule? “Every remedial measure of a na- tional character must run the gauntlet of the Senate,” said Mr. Bryan. “The President may personally incline to- ward a reform; the house may consent to it; but as long as the Senate ob- structs the reform, the people must wait. “The President may heed a popular de- mand; the House may yield to public opinion; but as long as the Senate is defiant, the rule of the people is de- feated. Gateway to Reform. “The Democratic platform very prop- eply describes the popular election of senators as ‘the gateway to other’ na- tional reforms.’ Shall we open the gate, or shall we allow the exploiting interests t» bar the way by the control of this branch ef the Federal legisiature? “Through a Democratic victory, and through a Democratic victory only, can the people secure the popular elect stion of senators. The smaller parties are un- able to secure this reform; the Repub- lican party, under its present leadership, is resolutely opposed to it the Democrat- is party stands for it and has boldly de- manded it. “If I am elected to the presidency, those who are elected upon the ticket with me will be, Jike myself, pledged to this reform, and I shall convene Con- gress in extraordinary session immedi- ately after inauguration and ask, among ether things, for the fulfillment of this .| platform pledge.’’ Mr. Bryan arraigned the despotism of a| Speaker Cannon, declaring that Repub- tiene rules in the House of Representa- tives had destroyed the representative }value of that body.

‘purchase tled by the Speaker and the wishes of the ‘majority overridden, Charges Republicans Favor Gag. “The Republican Natienal Convention, instead of rebuking this attack upon popular government,” said. Mr. Bryan, Jj] “eulogized Congress and nominated as the Republican candidate for Vice-Pres- ident one of the men who shared in the responsibility for the coercion of the Heuse.”’ “Shall the people again. “They cannot unless they can contro] the House of Representatives, and through their representatives in the House give expression to their purposes and their desires, » “The Republican party is committed to the methods now in vogue in the Heuse of Representatives; the Demo- cratic party is pledged to: such a reyi- sion of rules as will bring the popular. branch of the Federal] Government into harmony with the ideas of those who framed our Constitution and founded our Government.” In subsequent speeches Mr. Bryan said he would ‘discuss the question—"Shail the people rule?’’—as it manifests itself in the tariff, the trusts, the banking the railread and the labor questions, in the problem of imperialism, in the. develop- ment of the waterways. If the people are satisfied with the rule?” ho asked ‘Republican record and methods of ad- ministration Mr. Bryan said a change could not be asked. If the voters, on the other hand, feel that the people have too little power and the great combinations of capital too much pow- er in the Government, the Democratic Party has a right to expect a verdict in its favor and against the Repub- Means. Says Democrate Never Sold Out. _ The Democratic party, sald Mr. Bryan, had proven its willingness to dle in the cause of the people by its refusal to victory by betraying the peo- the hands of these who despoll | “There’s “We may expect those who have com- mntted larceny ‘by law and purchased immunity with thetr political influence to attempt to raise false issues, and to ple into ther.

longer deceive,” said’ Mr. Bryan. ‘The Democratic party is not the enemy of any legitimate industry or of honest ac- cumulations. It is, on the contrary, a friend of industry and the steadfast pro- tector of that wealth which represents a service to society. “The Democratic party does not seek to annihilate all corporations; it simply asserts that as the Government creates corporations, it must retain the power to regulate and to control them, and that it should not permit any corpora- tion to convert itself into a monopoly. ‘Surely we should have the co-opera- tion of all legitimate corporations in our effort to protect business and industry from the odium which lawless combina- tions of capital will, if unchecked, cast upon them. Only by the separation of the good from the bad can the good be made secure. Seeks No Revolution, “The Democratic party seeks not revo- lution but reformation, and I need hard- ly remind the student of history that cures are mildest when applied at once; that remedies increase in severity as their application is postponed. Blood poisoning may be stopped by the loss of a finger today; it may cost an arm to- morrow or a life the next day. So poison in the body politic can not be removed too soon, for the evils produced by it increase with the lapse of time” As a peroration Mr. Bryan sald: “There is = Divine law of rewards, When the Creator gave us the earth, with its fruitful soil, the sunshine with its warmth, and the rains with their moisture, He proclaimed, as clearly as if His voice had thundered from the clouds, ‘Go work, and ac- cording to your indastry and your in- telligence, so shall be your reward.’ “Only where might hag overthrown, cunning undermined or Government suspended thig law, has a different law prevailed, ernment to this law ought to be the ambition of the statesman; and no party can have a higher mission than to make it a reality wherever govern- ments can legitimately operate. “Recognizing that I am indebted for my nomination to the rank and file ‘of our party, and that my election must come, if it comes at all, from the unpurchaseable , suffrages of the American people, I promise, if entrust- ed with the responsibilities of this high office, to consecrate whatever ability I have to the one purpose of making this, in fact, a Government in which the people rule—a Government which will do justice to all, and offer to every one the highest possible stimulus to great and persistent ef- fort, by assuring to each the enjoy- ment of his just share of the pro- ceeds of his toil, ne matter in what part of the vineyard he labors, or to what occupation, profession or calling he devotes himself.” Bryan’s Speeches as Text-Book. LINCOLN, Neb., Aug. 12:—Announce- ment was made to-day that the Demo- cratic text beok would be composed of the party platform, Mr. Bryan's letcer ond speech of acceptance, with speeches on the tariff and trusts which will be made shortly by Mr. Bryan, and ex- tracts and comments on the planks in the platform from various sources. It is planned to have the text book published by the first of next month. — ALMOST A SHADOW Gained 20 lbs. on Grape-Nuts.

Farmers are talking about nothing elee. Some of them think the investi- gation will be a good thing, while oth- ers resent the Pregident’s interference. Many tillers of the soil are not back- ward in expressing their opinions. Here are a few: BY HIRAM CLINKENBEARD, Round Corners, Ark., R. F. D. 23. Them commissioners may be all right, but I'll bet my hat they cain’t show me how to get rid ef these here razor back hogs that roots up the gardens and chews up the corn. What we want down here is some o’ th.em new-fangled pafety hogs, ‘stead o’' these old-fash- fened kind that has to be stropped ev- ery week to keep ’em en edge.

BY LEMUEL LEMMON, Sour Oreek, Ind. I've heard a let of these hifalutin’ sci- entific farmers talk, but I’ve never seen ene yet that could tell me how to weed @ ten-acre patch ef snappin’ beans with- @ut gettin’ a crick in my back. Maybe Teddy can tell me. He seems to know most everything else.

BY L. BURT UBBARD, West Aurora, N. Y. it is, indeed, a beautiful thought. Be kind. Be generous. Be noble. By all means the farmer should be uplifted. Let him have mission furniture. Let him have mottoes. Let him read books printed and bound by the Haylofters. Carry the message to Garcia. BY SIM GPRIGGINS, Blae Bottle Bend, Mo. That there commission will have toe show me. I’ve been tryin’ fer mighty nigh forty years to make both ends meet on this farm. Now one end’s dropped in the river and the other end’s slid off onto the railroad track and there's nothing left but the middle. That's nething but rocks and I’m toe eld to start a quarry. If Teddy can make anything out of this ranch he can have it. BY 0. C. HOOZKUM, Billjennings, Neb. Teddy's scooped again, by Gosh. Talk about the social uplifting of the farm- er. What's the matter with Mr. Bry- an's chautauquas? I get so much cul- ture at one of them things that I have to go home and cover up to sweat it off. If I caught cold while the culture was on me it might strike in and kill me. Them Republicans are trying to steal Bryan's thunder, that's all. BY JOSH SPIELER, Squashvilie, Ti. t don’t take much Jo this business of using a patent cultivator on the Yarm- er. He's got to be hard and rough. If he wasn't the chiggers’d blame soon eat him up. I won't think there's much in this commission business un- less they show me how to milk with ene hand and churn with the other and how to feed a new calf without putting my finger in its mouth.

Although in his letter to Prof. Bailey, outlining the work of. his Farm Commission, President Roosevelt directs attention to the economic con- ditions of the farming industry, he places the greater stress upon social, educational and other advantages which make for a higher plane of living. He makes the economic condition in a measure secondary to the attractiveness of farm life and work. He seems to think it possible to divorce the profitableness of farming from the comforts of farm life and to promote high living without increasing the surplus earnings of farm industry to be expended in comfort. The letter contains this parasraph: “We hope ultimately to double the av- erage vield of wheat and corn per acre, it would be a great achievement; -but it is even more important to double the desira- bility, comfort and standing of the farm- er's. life.”’ It is true that adding to the desirability, com- fort and standing of the farmers’ life is of the ut- most importance to the country, farming industry is of the utmost importance and the advance in farm life means more farmers, bet- ter farmers and better citizens. This is a truism. But the desirability, comfort and standing of farm life depends primarily upon the profitableness of farming. If farming, as compared with other oc- cupations, brings good returns, satisfactory prof- its on the money invested and the labor expended, if the farmers have an ample surplus to expend for education, comfort and social diversions, there is little need for Government to ad him in the higher ways cf living. He will do that for him- self and his increased com#éort, based upon in- creased means, will not only keep the boys on the farm, but will attract men from the city to the farm. The conditions of the one-horse South- ern farm, to which Mr. Roosevelt calls attention, are due to the inabiiity of the one-horse farmer to make a comfortable living. The economic condition of farming is the vital question. How can farming be made to pay ade- quate returns? We sympathize with Mr. Roosevelt’s desire to promote better living on the farms. We believe with him that there is nothing more important to the country than an increase in the comfort of farm life, which will draw men:to the farming industry and will make for culture in farming communities. We believe that publicity of farm conditions will promote betterments. But the fundamental function of Government is to establish justice between nian and man, to assure to every man the just return of his labor. The letter of the President would have been stronger, more to the point, less evasive, less sug- gestive cf political platitude and of ingenious ep- peal to the farmer vote, if it had directed the Commission's attention to the economic conditions of farming, with a view to determining whether the Government is performing its fundamental function of establishing justice. What is the effect on farm life of the tariff which protects the manufacturer, but does not protect the farmer? The farmer sells his products in a cheap, unprotected market, where the law of demand and supply works freely without re- striction, and buvs his necessaries of life and of farm work in a dear, protected market. How much does this injustice, this forcing up of his cost of living without an equalizing increase in the price of his products reduce his plane of liv: ing? How do monopoly and the manipulation of market prices, under which the farmer sells his products at low prices and buys his food, clothing, huilding materials, furniture, tools and machinery at monopolized prices, affect the con- ditions of farm life? How do railroad rates, based on over-capitali- zation and monopoly combination, affect his plane of living? How can he prosper as he should pros- per when his return on his preducts is decreased and the cost of his necessaries is increased by high rates of transportation. 7 The Government has dene much for the farm- ing industry through agricultural experiments, irrigation and the exparsion of rural mail de- livery, but the greatest thing it can do fer him ‘gs to do him justice--to wipe owt all ilfiazal and legal discriminations which put him at a disad- vantage in the strugele for existence. Let the Government see that the farmer sets justice and the farmer may he trusted to do the rest. Eut to ro into these questions now would cx- pose the iniquities of the Dingley tariff, the in- icuities of monopclies which it promotes and the iniquities of railroad discriminations and com. binations which have grown up under Republican rule. It would expose the fact that within ten years the cost of living has advanced 44 per cent, largely through privilege and monopoly, without a corresponding increase in the éarnings 6f the plain, unprivileged people. hip La di i i A

When the people of St. Louis ordered a free bridge they expected to got it. Instead they have a controversy between the Mayor and the Presj- dent of the Board of Public Improvements, What can we Go? | i, La he re eS

MR. BEGGS CANNOT SEE. The benevolent sentiment of Mr. John I. Beggs, expressed in an interview, will be appreciated gratefully by all who have felt the blessings of his “standardized” prices. And the significance of his statements will be fully understood by every- body who has watched the practical unfolding of his philanthropic ideas. Mr. Beggs’ belated approval of the publte uttt- ties commission bill appears, however, to be the result cf the compulsion of public opinton. The case .as been tried, the facts of his monopoly are all in evidence, having been exposed by the Post-Dispatch. After this exposure it fs not likely that the people of St. Lou's will expect much help from Mr. Beggs in working out the Problems of public service. , Any improvement must come from the eons'1m- ers themselves, acting through the commission Mr. Beggs plaintively observes that the commis. sion should protect his corporations as well as the customers. His corporations have shown an extraordinary ability to protect themselves and really ought not to ask the public to do what they are sc well able to do for themselves. There is no danger whatever that the Begrs corpora- tions will suffer any wrong from the public an- thority while he and his able lieutenatns are in command.

Mr. Beges claims to believe in low Taies and gives a very good reason for thix faith—they “prevent compe- tition.” But Mr. Beggs has succeeded in pre- venting competition by other means, which have been destribed in the Post-Dispatch. The people of St. Louis have had their eyes opened, They will not be eager to employ Mr. Beggs to instruct their commission in the‘art and science of low rates. His schedules of standardized rates do not justify any hope that his view of what low rates are can be made to coincide with those of the con- sumers who pay the bills. The less competition there is the more public regulation is needed, whether rates be high or low or standardized. Mr. Beggs having “prevent- ed” competition, the public will now supply the regulation. He has done his part; Ris customers will now do theirs—that is, ar soon as the public gets a Municipal Assembly which will do its duty. 2 La Lp A rer! -

LETTERS FROM THE PEOPLE _ . Sex Equality. “o the Editor of the Post-Dispaich. It is a primal law of nature that the female in any Species of apimal is inferior. No matter how insig- nificant the bull, the cow assumes no mastery, al- though she could. It is the same way with every other species of animal—except woman. When will this gruelsome farce of sex equality among human beings end and man return to his own? SIDNEY, AVERILL.

Baden Station. a At the Old Stand. fo the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. As a student of political economics in our large cities for many years, I cannot help but thank you for publishing the cartoon ‘Doing Business at the Old Stand.”’ Your artist has caught .the real fact of the case and told a story in this picture which could not be told in a whole page in words; in fact, the picture says many things that were never expressed on the editorial page in words. PROHICITIONIST. The Price of a Vote. fo the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. Ex-Gov. Alva Adams, before State’s Commercial Association at Greeley, Colo., said: “If some Car- negie would stand at the door of a Socialist con- vention and hand to every attendant a title deed to 10 acres of good land or a home, you could never again reconvene that conyention.’’ Whether this is true or not, it is certainly a compliment to the So- Clalist voter. There are 80 many patriotic voters of other parties who can be bought with a mug of beer, a cheap cigar or a pleasant look, that the man who can't be bribed with less than 10 acres of good land or a-comfortable home must be regarded as one who has enough respect for himself to de- mand a top price for his vote. By becoming a Social- ist, € man puts a new valuation ‘upon himself. He serves notice on the vote brokers that the price of his ballot has been advanced: He demands at least a decent home in which to house his family. There is the same difference of value between a Soctalist and a ‘capitalist-minded workingman that there is between a pint can of stale beer and 10 acres of good land. GEO. B. CROSS, 54 Cottage avenue. Tennis Court Favoritism. fo the Editor of the Post-Dispatch, Allow me to call your attention to the rnanagement, or rather mismanagement, of the tennis courts at O'Fallon Park. To cite specific instances: On Satur- day on court No. 5 were four men who came about 2 Pp. m. and although there were some fifty or sixty others who had been waiting there for an hour or more, this particular quad seemed to have some especial graft with the High Mogul in charge and court No. 5 was immediately marked up for them, another official having previously carefully and as- siduously run off all others who ventured on the reserved. forbidden piece of ground. The 45-minute rule was absolutely ignored in their favor, the writer seeing them play continuously until 4:20, and they were still playing when he left at that time, in spite of the fact that there were dozens of+¢young fellows standing around who had made civil and respectful applications for courts to play on, to say nothing of the number of neatly attired ladies ar.d girls. It may be that if attention is publicly called to this state of affairs. the Park Commissioner will cause it to be remedied for the public benefit. - ENNIS. Robert Herrick’s Book. To tre Fditor of the Post-Dispatch, The article on Robert Herrick’s book, “Together,” in Sunday’s Post-Dispatch, is a very fair review of a work evidently intended to expose the folly of that class of men and women who mistake animal pas- sion for soulfullness and mental independence. I be- lieve, from a careful perusal of the book, that Mr. Herrick did not intend it as a wholesale condemna- tion of Am¢rican women, but only of that class in which the men are wholly devoted to money-making whole the wonten, with no pressing duties, are en- taved in thé pursuit of pleasure. The chief virtue of Herrick’s book is the clever way in which he shows how these women and their male ‘‘affinities" excuse themselves intellectually. What is needed to- day is a better understanding of the facts of biology. The human body, like all animal organ!gations, is a machine, which must be kept under strict control or it will run riot and ruin its owner. Everyone ought te read “The Biology of the Frog.”” which is in the Publi¢ Library, in order to understand how tvrannical are the impulses of the body. Herrick’'s heroes and heroines mistake these impulses for soul growth. That is all thet ails them. Ww. Napo:eon the Little. fo the Pd‘tor of the Post-Dispatch Napo'eon was a man of smail stature, arg a little St. Louis hoodlum, upon reading this fuct from an almanac. said to himself: ‘If Nap was no larger than I, and reached a pinnacle of fime in war and politics, why can’t I who, am also a little man, suspend my craps games, turn up a few policemen who have been protecting me and thus bunco some of the people Into thinking I’ve reformed? Then I'll get into the political game in the Twenty-sec- ond and Fourth wards and, like Nap, become great.” With ‘at effort, more reading was done from an- other installment of the same almanac, on the sub- ject of political economy, as practiced by the great conquerer, And so closely were Nap’s methods followed by this aspirant to greatness, that when he succeeded in causing the surrender of the City Democratic Committee he believed himself to be the “big neise.”’ But in the latter days of the primery campeign much valuable time wes wasted In trying to “eollect’ from candidates, and he hadn't time to read the last installment from the almanac, the story of the battle of Waterloo, until the day after

SIMPLE MEANS FOR REMOVING TAN. You May Want to Reduce the Brown on Your Skin Which Cost So Much Exposure and Is Now So Unbeautiful. If So Follow These Directions.

-—— —— ——- - HE secret of getting rid of tan is in washing the face and hands constant- T ly in bleaches or whiteners. These applications at first may seem inef- fectual, but after a few days will prove a real cure. ‘ For the removal of a slight coat of tan buttermilk and even plain cream (not the cold cream of commerce) are highly to be commended, but it must be understood that they are to be used daily. It will do absolutely no good to wash the hands and face in buttermilk once a day, or once in several days; it must be many times every day. In that way the skin is constantly under the influence of whitening and refining properties, and, if it is protected in the interval, summer need have no terrors for those who would fain have pretty complexions. A girl who sails, plays tennis or goes in for any sport that takes her muc!: in the open air should always have buttermilk in the house, and each time she ccmes in from play she should wipe“her face and neck with the whitening liquid. In applying the milk soak old linen in it, and then wipe these over the flesh. The liquid must be allowed to dry in, and later wiped off with rosé water. This is preferable to plain water, but a trifle expensive, so if money is an object tincture of benzoin may be substituted. Of this fluid 12 drops in a pint of water are sufficient and this bath may be slightly warm, but not hot. It will serve to remove the odor of milk, which is not pleasant. Incidentally it is softening In effect. Another application that is sometimes easier to obtain than buttermilk is vinegar and horseradish. The horseradish must be from the fresh root, not that which has been bottled. In preparing this compound it should be put into a cup, covered with cider vinegar, and allowed to stand for several hours. It is thon mopped freely over the skin and allowed to dry on. This tonic whitener js especially good to use at night, letting the acid act on the skin for many hours. It is a pronounced astringent, and when the fac® is pitted with large pores, or ts inglined to be oily, is an excelient lotion. When the tan is several layers deep in the skin something a little strong- er than these bleaches is needed, and for a heavy coat nothing is better than a inixture of magnesia and seft water, making a paste of the two. and apread- ing it over the face to dry on, or to stay about five minutes. It must be washed off with warm, not hot, water and soap, and, if washed, a little cold cream may be rubbed over the flesh. An effective lotion for tan and freckles is a saturated solution of borax in ‘rose water. As much of the powder is put into the perfumed water as the latter will dissolve, and this is frequently appWed to the skin and allowed to dry on. This mixture is beneficia] in ways which the plain saturated solution seems to have no effect, and though the rose water is a substitute for the plain saturated mixture, the latter does not bring the same results as rose water. Heroic measures to eradicate tan and freckles only make a bad matter worse. The blotches, or brown, may be removed, but only temporarily, because the epidermis has been made sensitive by the action of powerful applications, and therefore becomes more than ever susceptible to influence by sun or heat. fre Maly LEE a PARIS ARE ee

LEXANDRINE DE DAMAS D’ANTIGNY, wife of Charles Daniel de Tal- A leyrand-Perigord and mother of the great French diplomatist, was in no way fitted by nature for the duties and responsibilities of mother- hood. Brilliant, of charming conversational powers, and admirably fitted to shine at court, she was totally destitute of moral convictions and sadly lacking in the tender affection which is the basis of all successful motherhood. She was the apotheosis of insincerity and deceit. Her chief motto was: “Avoid emphasis.’’ That meant that she never committed herself, but even held herself ready to make the most of the passing opportunity. Born in 1754, in the Rue Garancure, Paris, the infant Talleyrand was the following week ‘‘put to nurse” in the suburbs, and was so completely forgot- ten that when, four years after, it was decided to remove him, he was found to be lamed for life, owing to the unskillful treatment he had received for an injury to his foot. The week following his birth was the only one he had ever spent under the same roof with his mother, though she lived for 50 years afterwards. There was no tender rearing. no loving study and direction of the young life. Not once during the years of his infancy did Talleyrand know the kiss of a mother’s lips, or hear the tender sound of a mother’s voice. On Sundays one of his teachers would take him to dine with his parents, and after a very cold and formal visit of an hour or so he would be dismissed. His father and mother were in the service of the court, neither the time nor the inclination to think of the moral child. Under such circumstances is it any wonder that Talleyrand became the sort of man he was—brilliant, powerful, a cynic and a voluptuary bighop, and yet skeptical of all things spiritual and divine; absolutely devoid of princi- ple, and ever looking for the main chance, which chance was none other than the opportunity to advance his own private interest; he played with the men and measures of his time as gamblers play with dice. But let us give the ‘‘devid his due.” Shamefully as Talleyrand was treated by his mother, if ‘‘motper’ we may be permitted to call her, he was never known to speak an unkind or disrespectful word of her. He received his des- tiny calmly, without sending back one word of imprecation upon the woman whose criminal and unnatural negleet made him what he was. and they had nurture of their

THE INNOCENT VICTIM OF COURTS. By W. D. HOWELLS,

HAT reparation does the State make him for. his time, of which W it has wasted years, and for the agony which it bas inflicted upon an innocent man? Does it compute his wrong to money, and offer to recom- pense him for his loss and pain? Does it formally claim the sovereign right the sacred privilege, of paying his counsel, the men who have saved him from its error, and kept from its annals the stain of his Sulltless death? Does it declare with forms of peculiar solemnity, in some special session of its high- est tribunal, that he has been deeply wronged and that now he must be right- ed in the esteem of all just men? Nothing of the kind. It simply lets him go under the cloud that it does nothing else to lift from him, ana leaves him to pay the whole cost of his fight for life. Sometimes there ig Popular applause at the acquittal of an accused man, and then an officer commands silence in the court. But ought there to be silence in the court?

“a Henry of Navarre and Marguerite Valois. _ | An Unwilling Bride Who Fell in Love With Her Husband 2 Was Cast Off. Retold for the Post-Dispatch BY ALBERT PAYSON TERHUNE.

WO young people stood before the | altar facing the Archbishop of Paris one day in August, 1572. The girl was slender and beautiful. The man was tall, dark. homely, with a great hooked beak of a nose. The young couple were both under twenty. All the nobility of France had flocked to Paris to witness their marriage. Yet, now that the two faced the Archbishop, there was a most amazing hitch in the ceremonies. The bride refuseqd to make her re- sponses! The bridegroom (Henry, King of the subsidiary province of Navarre) answered “I do” to the Archbishop's query as to whether he woud take Princess Marguerite de Valois as his wife. But when the same question was put to Marguerite she refused to reply. The spectators whispered excitedly. There was an awkward pause. Then a pale, wild-eyed man, gaudily dressed, stepped forward, caught © Marguerite’s head roughly between his hands and bent it forward by force into a nod of assent. The man who thus overcame the bride’s. obstinacy was her brother, the half-crasy Charles IX, King of France. The foregoing scene is scarcely a promising opening for a “love” story and needs seme explanation. France for years had been rent by quarrels be- tween two great factions, the Hugue- nots (Protestants) and Catholics. The dispute was political, rather than re- ligious, and led to a long series of wars. Catherin de Medici, mother of Charlies IX and Marguerite de Valois, hated the Huguenots and made the fol- lowing plan for their destruction: She arranged a marriage between Henry, King of Navarre (leader of the Hugue- nots), and her daughter Marguerite. All the Huguenot leaders were invited to Paris for the “ceremony. While they were there a wholesale massacre Was to take place on 8t. Bartholomew's Day. and no Huguenot to be left alive. Margurite was as clever as she was beautiful. She did not relish the idea of being made a pawn in this game of murder. Hence her refusal to make the marriage responses. Yet, when the wed- ding was actually over, she did all in her power to save her young husband from the fate decreed for him. So suc- cessful was she that in spite of Cather- ine’s plots Henry was not killed in the ensuing “Massacre of St. Bartholo- new.” But thousands of his fellow- Huguenots were slaughtered in cold blood and his own life hung by a thread. To Marguerite’s tact and the frequent warnings she gave him he owed his safety. That the strangely mated couple grew to care very much for each other in their own free-and- easy way, is certain. Though it was not the sort of love that endured, yet while it lasted both Henry and Mar- guerite were the gainers. By Henry from death his wife changed the whole history of France. For he was destined to becme that country’s greatest K saving’ }

On the other hand, the Browns had no less than 16 men on the bases at different times, and could not score. A swat in time beats nine.

"Harry Howell pitched a_ beautiful fame yesterday afternoon. It was the ind of twirling that would have beaten pions. nine times out of ten. It Was superior to the prtching done by Gicotte, the stubby Boston man. Mc- Aleer wil] never ask more of Harry than he did in that game. The breaks of the game came to Boston, or it would t have scored. It was indeed a tough one for Harry to lose. He had won seven straight. He ager th ya as good ball yesterday as did in any of the others that he won. Yet he did not have a chance yesterday. He was shut out. ‘There is no doubting the fact that the ns are in the throes of a batting slump. But it is not without cause. The “‘spitball’’ has done it. Of course, they did not do any heavy hitting against Cy Young. No one does unless _the /old man is very ill. Then came Cy Morgan, and he is seldom hit hard, t he was in this case, when the Browns started that eighth inning rally Sunday. Steele was next, and he threw the spitball with such perfectness that the Browns were completely lost. Ci- Cotte followed with the “spitter’’ yes- terday, and there was no hitting to Speak of. McAleer Praises Boston, “That Boston club played great base- ball,’ said Manager McAleer of the Browns, after the .attle was ended. “Those fellows seemed able to pull off any kind of a play on us. It always broke right for them. If they called _' for a hit-and-run play it was inyaria- bly at the. same time that our pitcher Was sneaking over a straight one that oould be “hit. If we tried the hit-and- run, their pitcher would always throw ® Wide one, and we would lose a man at second. “If they got a man on second base and two men, out, the next man seemeu to always be there with a base hit. If We had the bases full, it would do no good, for the batter would probably fan or pop up in the air. It did not do any good to hit the ball hard to the infield- ers. They were scooping everything that came their way. I . ave never seen ne club have so much good luck against Rpother as Boston has against us. True, ey played good ball. That's just it: they paved beyond their class, just as they have done all season against this one club.” Where Ciecotte Was Lucky. * Boston hit the ball yesterday very lit- tle more than did the Browns.

CRUSINBERRY’S COMMENT. If the Browns beat Boston four straight when they visit Beantown in a couple of weeks, and then beat them three straight the next time they come to St. Louis, then the two teams will divide the honors for the ‘season. Boston has won 11 games out of 15 against the Browns. The Browns will be on the train from noon to-day unti. late tomorrow even- ing, when they arrive in Philadelphia to open a series of three games, Friday. There are but 14 games to be played on this Eastern trip, it being the short- est of the three jaunts through the East. Has Detroit slumped? They were held to an even split against Washing- ton. while the Browns won three out of four against that club, the only de- feat being that 16-inning battle pitched by Johnson and Dinneen. It was tough for Harry Howell to break his winning streak after pitching as high-class ball as he did yesterday. Harry has lost a lot of games this sea- son only because the club failed to hit behind him. Danny Hotiman tried to put over a trick on the umpires yesterday, and beat Hurst on it, but was detected by Evans. He was on first and Ferris on second in the second inning with one man out, Tom Jones lined a long fly to Thoney. Ferris dashed back, touched second and as the catch was made, ran safely to third, beating Thoney’s throw, though he had to slide for it. Hoffman had been playing up nearly to second while the ball was in the air. He didn’t think Hobe would run to third, but when he saw him going and saw all eyes on that pl y, he coolly stepped on second base instead of going ck to first. Laporte was the only one to de- tect the trick, Umpire urst calling both safe.

CARDINALS ARE ON WAY HOME

— McCloskey’s Close Eastern Trip by Shut-Out at Hands of Boston.

Special to the Post-Digpatch. BOSTON, Aug. 12.—The St. Louis Car- dinals were shut out here in the final Eastern game, though they put up one of the best fights of the year. Bosten, however, got a hit at the critical time in the seventh inning and drove in two counters, which proved plenty to get the game, the score being 2 to 0. The Cardinals departed in the eveniny for St. Louis, where they will open on their own grounds on Thursday after- noon. The contest of yesterday was the live- liest Boston has seen in many a day. The two pitchers, Eddie Karger for the Cardinals, and Tuckey, a new southpaw lately secured from the Connecticut State League, were pitching a royal duel and both were backed up by sensa- tional fielding that spoiled scores time after time. This kept up for seven in- nings, there hardly being a time when either team could not have won the game with ordinary luck. This put the crowd in an uproar so that when Beaumont dreve the bali against the left-field fence in the sev- enth inning for a double that scored two runs, there was a demonstration that would equal that made by winning a championship. The Cardinals were a bit disconsolate on leaving for home, for they have had far from a successful trip. However, McCloskey is still plugging as hard as ever and believes his boys will keep on improving so that they will finish the season with a.rush and be in line for better things next year. HALSWELLE TOLD FRENCHMAN THAT HE HAD BEEN OUTRUN English Olympic Competitor Said “There Was no Trouble,” After Race.” Special to the Post-Dispatch. BOSTON, Aug. ‘12.—According to James B. Connelly, the athlete and au- thor, who has just returned from the Olympic games, the president of the French Civic Club met Lieut. Halswelle ern after the finish of the 400-meter ace. Lieut. Halswelle is the English run- ner who, the British officials claimed, was fouled by Carpenter of the Amer- ican team. The Frenchman asked the Britisher: What was the trouble?’ Nothing; they were too fast for me,” replied Halswelle. n speaking of the race itself, Con- nelly stated that he was at the finish and did not have a clear view of the spot where the runners turned into the stretch; but directly after the race Con- nelly was given to understand that Halswelle would enter no claim of foul.

Western Rowing Club After Eastern Coach a. a

- — President Schaab Will Search for Instructor at ; the National Regatta at Springfield, Mass.

John J. Schaab, president ef the South- western Amateur Rowing Association, departed for Springfield, Mass., last night, to represent the association at the national regatta of the National Rowing Association, te be held at Springfield, Mass., Friday and Saturday, and, incidentally, to look over the field and sign a first-class rowing coach for the Western Rowing Club. Before he departed Schaab received instructions from the Western Rowing Club, of which he is a former presi- dent, to bring the instructer te St. Louls as soon as ssible. The West- ern Rowing Club has the shells, club- house and plenty of promising mate- rial. The club lacks an _ instructor. None of the other local rowing clubs have had professional coaches, but they have been tried with varying success. An accidental drowning of an Oars- man ar the Western Rowing Club a short time ago brought the fact se forci- bly before the members that they should have a competent man in charge of the club shells and clubhouse who would not allow the men to take out a shell unless they were capable of han- dling it. Because the Western Rowing Club crews failed to do anything in the race for the Stifel Cup and the Western eight also went down to defeat in the race on the river for the Lemp trephy, the members have demanded a coach. Pete Dilge and Louis Joachim of the St. Louis Rowing Club, who will row in a double, are the only local men who will compete in the National R tta. They are in a contest. The St. uls double was beaten at Herseshoe Lake by a double from the North Side Club of Quincy, Il. The Mound City Rowing Club failed to send its four East. The Madisen street men are still considerably nettled over the quarter-mile dash for fours at the Horseshoe Lake regatta. The final ‘decision on the event was that the North Side crew of Quincy, Il., will get the medals. Gus Hermsdorfer of the North Side Club was In St. Louis Saturday and re- mained over until Monday in an effort to induce the local rowing men to award the regatta next year to Quincy. He Was promised all of the support that ould be accorded him and promised to t up a good bid for the event. It will not be decided who will get the next re- gatta until early next spring. The Century Boat Club will be heard from next year. This year the wearers of the green had but one pair in the Horseshoe Lake events. This was be- cause the oarsmen refused to train, be- cause they declared that the social ele- ment at the club had rushed the club- house through at the delay of the boat- heuse on the river. The boathouse is now almost completed and in the near future the club will order a new eight- oared shell, barge, double and pair and ny probability a new four-oared shell also All of the clubs are beginning to scout up strong crews for the first race for the new Faust cup, which will be rowed on the Mississippi River Sept. 6. The race will be a three-mile downstream contest for barge crews. To gain permanent possession of the trophy it will be necessary to win three times. It is the fifth Faust cup offered for competition, the Westerns winning two cups and the Mound Citys two. The Mound Citys took the last cup. The finish of the race will be at a point in front of the Western Rowing Club. TT

Amateur Notes

| Line D rive §. ““Good-by Boston—we don't care if you never come back,”’—Swan song of James McAleer. So Ban B. has at last come to the double umpire system. Recent work at St. Louls would force anyone to it. Umpire Hurst again changed his mind at the request ef the kickers yesterday. Hurst failed to see Hoffman leave first base before a fly had reached the field- er’s hands and allowed Danny to keep an extra base. The kick was so strong that Evans was appealed to and he up- held the players. urst called Hoffman out, the ball having been returned to Stahl, and the side was out. That was only one sample of a bad break, for had the Fyn d stood, the Browns would have had men on second and third bases and a chance to score both of them with a single. lubs in the League have from the Browns.

GANS LOSING WEIGHT AND STRENGTH IN INTENSE HEAT Reports From Harbin Springs Show Former Champion in Bad Way. Special to the Post-Dispatch. SAN FRANCISCO, Cal, Aug. 12.—Sev- eral sports who have returned from Harbin Springs, where Joe Gans has been staying since his defeat by Bat- tling Nelson, give gloomy reports of the ex-champion’s condition, and the re- ports are borne out by photos. They say the hot weather in Lake County has had a bad effect on Gans. Gans picked up weight at first when the weather was good, but lately, since the mercury has run far above the hundred mark, Gans has lost flesh un- til now he only weighs 134 — He looks tired, and lately he has lost his and appetite. Joe attributes this to the heat says he will be all right when he gets to the sea coast next week. He is optimistic and he says he feels well, but his looks beue him and his step lacks its old ginger. If he gets into shape for his return fight with Nelson it will be a miracle, the sports say. —_——_@-———— ENGLISH PAIR TO PLAY HERE FOR TENNIS CHALLENGE RIGHT Matches Will Decide Who Goes to Australia for the Cup. LONDON, Aug. 12.—M. J. Ritchie and J. C. Harte, who compose the English lawn tennis team which will try for the Dwight Davis challenge trophy cup this year, will sail for the United States the latter part of the present month. The holders ef the trophy at present are Australians and the competing teams must go there to wrest the trophy from them. In consequence the English and Amer- ican teams will play off a preliminary in this country to decide which team shall go to Australia to oppose Wilding and Brookes, who last year wrested the championship from English, American, French and Belgian competitors. The Doherty brothers, who for so many years have been without peers in the tennis world, have withdrawn from competitive play.

NATIONAL GOLF PLAY CHANGED Novelties Are Introduced This Year to Enliven the Week’s Tourney. NEW YORK, Aug. 12.—The program for the fourteenth annual amateur championship tournament given out last night by W. Fellowes Morgan, secre- tary of the United States Golf Associa- tion, presents several departures in con- ditions. The blue ribbon event of American golf will be held over the links of the Garden City Golf Club Sept. 14 to 19. This makes a solid week of competi- tion and it is the only tournament in the country that will require six days to run off. The conditions will interest devotees of the game chiefly for their novelty. On Monday, the first day, there will be an 18-hole medai reund, #4 players to qualify. On Tuesday morning there will be an- other 18 holes of medal play and the 32 contestants having the best score for the 36 holes, will qualify for the champlon- ship. Match lay will begin that same aft- ‘ernoon with a round of 18 holes, but for the next four days, matches will con- sist of 3% holes. This provision for all- day matches in every round gave the first, approaches nearer the ideal sys- tem, or the system favored and re- garded the best by a majority of the country’s leading players. In accord- ance with usual custom, the winner will receive a gold medal, the runner-up 4 silver medal and the other semi-finalists bronze medals. The contestant making the lowest 36- holes score in the testing round will receive a special prize. In the event of a tle or ties for the past place on Mon- day or on Tuesday morning, the con- testants so tied shall continue to play until one of them shall have gained 4 lead by a stroke at any hole.
