Friends’ Arrest. INNOCENT, HE. SAYS Can’t Believe Brother-in-Law and Another Tried to “Fix” Talesmen. A. 4 PITTSBURG, Jan. 15.—J. B. F. Rine- hart, former cashier and vice-president of the Farmers and Drovers’ National Bank of Waynesburg, Pa., which in- stitution failed more than two years ago for $2,000,000, was found guilty at noon today of wrecking the bank, and was immediate,y sentenced to 15 years in the penitentiary by United States Judge James 8S. Young. The jury found Ri@®hart guilty of all the 11 counts, charging him with making false reports to the Comptrol- ler of the Currency, and upon all of the 19 counts charging him with mak- ing false entries and with abstraction in transactions connected with the Greene County political campaign of 1905. Rinehart was not present when the verdict was read, but entered a few minutes later. Judge Young then called Rinehart before him and imposed sen- tence, Banker Is in Tears Tears trickled down the cheeks of the dazéd banker and among the largest bwathering ever seen in a United States Court here there was a deathlike silence. Immediately after the verdict a num- ber of the jurors were instructed by the Court to confer with United States Dis- tion followed. This conference was for the purpose of procuring additional information con- cerning the alleged attempt to bribe a member of the jury for which two men, George Worley and James K. Smith, are in custedy. A third arrest is momen- tarily expected. District Attorney Dunkle refused to make public the name of the third man wanted. He said, however, the man was shadowed last night by secret service men and special agents of the Depart- ment of Justice sent here from Wash- ington. He intimates that the arrest will cause a sensation, owing to the man’s prominence. It is reported that'a private detective agency has been connected with the at- tempt to corrupt the jury. Several representatives of the agency have been rounded up in the corrtdors of the Fed- eral building by the secret service oper- atives and taken to the office of United States Commisioner Lindsey. It is said they are undergoing a severe cross- éxamination. Arrests Surprise Convicted Man. “The saddest moment of my life, which has not been uneventful, was this morning, when I learned of the arrest of my brother-in-law, George W. Worley, and my friend, James L. Smith, charged with jury tampering,” said Rinehart before the verdict was re- turned, ‘“*Why,.- Worley is little more than a boy, an innocent boy, at that, who has seldom been out of Greene County, and is so quiet and reserved that he can scarcely talk to a stranger. It is im- possible for me to believe that such a boy would be guilty of the serious charge impending against him. Smith is an older man, has traveled exten- sively, has been a prominent figure in Waynesburg life and has never been actively identified with me or my inter- ests, “It is bard for me to believe that he would take upon himself so serious an act as to attempt to tamper with any of the members of the jury. In my opinion, it will be found at the hearing that a mistake was made. “The whole matter was an entire sur- prise to me, as I had hoped that the jury would acquit me on account of the man- ner in which I went on the stand last Tuesday and made a clean: breast of my connection with the affairs of the bank. I fear now that these arrests may dam- age my case, but in spite of that, I be- lieve that both Worley and Smith are innocent.’’ RIDERS trict Attorney Dunkle and a consulta- THORNTON JENKINS HAINS. eee WOOER TICKLED PASSENGERS BUT ANGERED GIRL La _ Because he tried to keep Miss Teresa Johnson ftom getting on a car of the Spring avenue line, John Tiefney of 3832 North Market street yas fined $50 by Judge O’Hallaron in the Dayton Street Police Court Friday. Persons living aleng the Spring ave- nue,line consider it a serious offense for one person to cause another to miss a ear of that line. They know it is likely to be a long wait for the next car. As on the Vandeventer line, it is sometimes a matter of dispute whether cars run they have any reguigr schedule what- ever. Tierney asked Miss Johnson, who was hurrying from her home on Belleglade avenue, to stop and listen to his tale of love. Miss Johnson said she could listen to him almost any time, but that if she didn’t catch the Spring car which was then approaching, there was no telling when she could get another. Tierney siezed her arm, but with her free hand she signaled for the motor- man to stop. Tierney protested, then, as men on the car platform gave him some severe glances, he let Miss John- ion. get aboard and followed her. The young woman appeared in the courtroom Friday attired in a tasty black suit, black veil and brown hat, and offered in evidence two notes which she said Tierney had sent to her in the last few days. One, she said, was put under the door of her home at,1 a. m., daily, or every other day, or whether.] CHINESE MUS! STOP SHAVING TU HONOR EMPEROR a wr Mourning according to chart for the late Emperor has been ordered for all loyal Chinese through the medium of the Union, a newspaper printed ip Shanghai, recaived in St. Louis Friday. To be properly sorry because the Em- peror dted a Chinese must grow a beard. Shaving is forbidden for 100 days, No fancy vesta or red neckties are permit- ted for days. Mandarins, panjan- drums, hi-mucka-mucks and grand ba- jooks may not indulge in matrimony for 100 days, nor common, ordinary citizens, merchants, laundrymen and coolies for 30 days.” Constables, dogcatchers and subpena servers must wear a piece of white cloth around the left arm for 100 days. That is the royal mandate, and it has gone forth in the Chinese World, a San Fran- cisco newspaper, and the Chinese Re- form News of New York, both printed in characters that look like shorthand gone crazy. In St. Louis’ Chinatown no perceptible wailing and beating of tom-toms is rd, however. If the Chinese are mourning they conceal their grief sto- ically. Every Chinaman in Hop Alley had a clean shave Friday, and théy all wore their lavender and pink socks. “Are you sorry the Emperor is dead? Have you gone into mourning?’ one of the Quong Hong Chong Co. Walnut street merchants, was asked. “Solly Emplor dead? Ha ha, velly solly. Me go into mouring ’s morning,” was the sad reply. “Are you going to obey the mandate and let your whiskers wr?" “Whiskiers glow? h, yes, iletee whisklers glow velly much. No shavee, all same pullee out.’ The gentleman had about six hairs on UNION LABOR'S CLOCK STRIKES, BETRAYS THE A man stole a clock from a labor headquarters. : The clock struck. Two walking delegates of the Peace Preservers’ Union heard it and arrested him, This Yen't a vaudeville joke. It hap- pened at Tenth street and Franklin avenue. Detectives Danaher and Usher were standing there when a man carrying something wrapped in a big - bundle brushed past them. ‘“‘Wonder what that fellow’s Got?” said ry Danaher. “Can't guess,” said Usher. Then the clock struck one, two, three, four, five, six—in rich, full grandfather tones. The man dropped the bundle and ran. Didn't Stop Ticking. Danaher pursued him and Usher picked up the package and unwrapped it, bringing to light a large wall clock 4 feet. high and 18 inches wide. It was ticking away as though it were working for union wages. Danaher caught his man at Bleventh street and came back with him. asked “Where did you get the clock?’ Usher. : “I bought it on tick,” said the pris- oner. : “Show us the time-payment hoyse where you got it.” “Wait a second,” said the prisoner, going through his pockets. “I’ve got the address here somewhere.” had kept his eye on the clotk. lclark testified that he saw Thornton; he f eee.

J. O. HUMPHREY did not act ag Jesus would. He should not have paid any attention to them. You.can’t help what other folks do. “We cannot help the way other people uct and the fact that they have wicked ways and say and do things to those who are trying to live as Jesus would live is no reason for giving up. They may tempt us, but temptation ts not sin. Jesus was tempted, but did not sin. “On a street car is a good place tod show the world what the life of Jesus is like. I am offered a cigar. I re- fuse it and am glad to say that I do not smoke, chew, drink or swear. If a man who has been walting for a car wants to make a speech I let him make it. If another wants to swear at me because the motorman did not make a good stop, I just let him swear. 1 don’t talk back and don't’ even want to talk back. You mustn’t think that I grit my teeth and think of all the things I would like to say. That’s as bad as saying them. I don’t feel any resentment. The only feeling I. have is pity for people who have so little pa- tience. He Once Had a Temper, 44 MI Y father was Scotch-Irish and my mother was Pennsylvania Dutch, and you see I have ‘the red hair that is said to go with a bad temper. I used to have a bad one, all right, but four years ago I put my bad temper by and started out to do nothing I knew to be wrong. I won't say I have done nothing wrong, but I can say that I have done nothing that I knew to be wrong. I have done nothing to be ashamed of. I don’t know that it is any harder for a con- ductor to live as Jesus would than any- ‘body else. Everybody comes in contact with people who make themselves dis- agreeable, but that is no excuse for others to be disagreeable. That just ‘makes it worse. “I do not expect to be treated right at all times, but I am doing my level! best to treat everybody right, and that fs what I think Jesus would “ on a ‘street car.’ Mr. Humphrey is 8 years sa He lives at 4651 Greer avenue. He is a Member of the Free Methodist church.

Otto W. F.reudenstein went on the water wagon because he would not take a dare and, incidentally, ' to. win a bonus_of $250 which his employer of- fered him if he would abstain from ardent waters for a year. But when Freudenstein and William Claus, his employer, president of the *Cincinnati Coke, Coal and Mining Co., got into a discussion about some commis- sions on coal sales which Freudenstein had made, Claus repudiated the water- wagon bonus. Freucenstein sued for the bonus on the ground that staying on the water wagon for a year was worth all it would bring, and won in a Justice Court last fall. Claus appealed the case and Freuden- stein won again in the Circuit Court Thursday. ea | ss I'll get that bonus now,” said he, when the jury announced itself.in his favor. “If ever a’ man earned $250 by the sweat of his thirst, 80 to speak, I did.

LAST VISIT COSTS $10 McCash Thought Guest Wore -- Out That “Welcome as Flowers in May.” — Otto Williams of 1017 Selby place was fined $10 by Judge O’Hallaron in the Dayton Street Police Court Friday be- Cause he took too literally the exuber- ant invitation of a bridegroom to come around any time. He came around once too often and was arrested. James McCash of 1914 Biddle street was married Dec. 14. Williams was one of the guests. McCash was so happy t.at during the evening he made a speech. He told all his friends to come around any old fime and they would be as weleome as the flowers in May. ‘It sounded good to Willlams. He called the next day and Kept on coming, morning, noon and night. McCash hint- ed that his speech about the flowers in May was intended poetically, but Wil- liams kept right on coming. He dropped in Thursday with a package of sand- wiches under his arm and made himself so much at home that McCash called a policeman and had him arrested. Looking for Trouble Is His Job. ‘What is your occupation?’ asked Judge O’Halloran. “I am a contractor.” , “What kind of a contractor?’ “T go around looking for trouble.”’ “What did you do aj McCash’s?’”’ “Tl don’t remember.

PARTIAL PARALYSIS MAY BE ENTIRELY OF A FUNCTIONAL CHARACTER. it Is Not Necessary te Accept it as Hope- less Since There Are Many Weill Authenticated Cures. There is absolutely no way of reach- ing the nerves with medigine cxcept through the blood. The nerves receive all of their nourishment and support from the blood which, under healthful conditions, carries the elements needed to rebuild wasted nerve tissue. let the blood become deranged and deficient in these elements and the merves will be. badly nourished and headaches, neuralgia, sciatica, func- tional paralysis and a host of other nervous troubles may result. In severe nervous disorders Dr. Wil. liams’ Pink Pills have accomplished many seemingly impossible cures.

To give the downtown streets of St. Louis at night that brifliancy and life which have made the Great White Way of New York famous, and to provide better transportation facilities on Fourth street and Broadway, between Franklin avenue and Elm streets, are the princi- pal objects fer which the newly organ- ized City Improvement Association will work. These and other methods of making these two great thoroughfares attractive were discussed at the meeting of the or- ganization committee at the Mercantile Club Thursday. The association was started through the initiative of F. D. Hirschberg, and since his death Dan C. Nugent has been in charge of the organization plans. Pian a “Loop District.” One of the first\things the association will do will be to endeavor to induce the trolley companies which will use the McKinley Bridge to route their cars over a downtown loop which will cover the busiest portions of Fourth street and Broadway. Everything possible will be done to re- store to Fourth street its- former com- mercial importance. The plans include the suitable and brilliant illumination of the. streets which will be included in the loop and the encouragement of out-of-town mer- chants to establish branch houses in the Fourth street district. The Officers Elected. Lawrence B. Pierce was elected pres!i- dent, Dan C. Nugent and 8S. M. Ken- nard, vice-presidents; George E. Hoff- man, treasurer.

THREE OF A KIND. Dropped Coffee, Picked Up Postum, % and Health.

The harmful action of caffeine—the drug in coffee and tea—is the same in all Be vay it is only a matter of degree, ie n may suffer more in way of heart palpitation, sour stomach, nervousness, or insomnia, than another, but the poison is there all the time, if one continues to drink coffee or tea. A Penn. lady and two-friends learned the truth about coffee in the same way. The lady writes:— “About four years ago I had an at- tack of nervous prostration and a great deal of trouble with my heart. Some- times feared I was dying, and my doc- tor seemed unable to find out the cause of my trouble. “I would frequently wake at night with these attacks and the doctor said there was some constant irritation of the nerves, and he began to think some disease was at work. day I was told of a case very similar to mine, and that the woman could find no relief until she stopped using coffee. I did not like the idea of eae up coffee, for I was very fond “Having read frequently of Postum, I determined to try it. It certainly made a great change in me.

GINGER IN CLUBS -

Mrs. «Moore, Federation Presi- dent, to See Why Feminine Organizations Languish. LEAVES CITY SATURDAY

Daughter Is Going Along, Too, for the “Fun of It.”

Mrs. .Philip N. Moore of St. Louis, president of the American Federation of Women’s Clubs, is going to the Isth- mus of Panama to straighten things out and put ginger into the women’s clubs of the Canal Zone. The President has exercised _ his strenuous influence there, and the coming President, William H. Taft, has lent weight to the movement to “start something” for the men and the general welfare. Now, Mrs. Moore is going to do the same thing for the American women exiled in Spig- goty land. Mrs. Moore’s visit is at the invita- tion of the Federation of Womens’ Clubs of the Isthmus. She will leave St. Louis Saturday, and sail from New York next Wednesday. “The wives, mothers and sisters of the men who are at work in the canal zone are in a peculiar position,” said Mrs. Moore. “They have been taken from their old homes and friends and amuse- ments to make a new life for their families in conditions totally dissim-~ ilar to those to which they have been accustomed. ( Women’s Discontent Affected Men. “At first, they had a dreadfully hard time and became homesick and dis- contented. Naturally® this had a bad effect on the men. Many a man has thrown up his billet in the tropics and returned because his ‘wife could not stand the solitude and lack of society in the new country. “The President early began to réat~ ize the necessity of making the women in Panama contented if he was to keep the right sort of men from de- serting. “The American Civic Federation took the matter in hand and sent Miss Ger- trude Beeks to Panama to learn the con- dition of the women there and suggest a means for the betterment of their lives. When she returned she suggested the establishment of women’s clubs as the best remedy for the lack of social life. “Miss Helen G. Boswell of New York i was then sent to the/zone to establish clubs and form a federation. This she did successfully and returned home. ‘#But somehow this federation did not thrive. It lacked experienced heads to guide it, and finally it did me the honor te invite me to go there, learn what the trouble was and tell them, gut of my experience, what to do. I ‘shall meet the federation the first time at Anton on the Pacific side. Surroundings Now Sanitary. “Since the Americans have had pos- session of the canal zone health con- ditions have been much improved and this has lessened the troubles of the women very much. They now have sanitary houses and surroundings for their families. I know nothing of the social conditions or what the clubs are doing. I shall be better informed when I return. : “T shall be accompanted and assisted by Mrs. John G. Sherman of Chicago, second vice-president of the American Federation, and my daughter, Miss Elizabeth Moore, who goes along for the fun of it. While we are gone Mrs. J. E. Cowles of Los Angeles, Cal., first vice-president, will be in charge of the work of the federation in this country. “T shall probably be two weeks on the isthmus. The weather there now is dry and about like our August weather. We expect to be most comfortable.”

LOS ANGELES, Cal,, Jan. 15.—Charles Gates took $28,650 from the Sante Anita bookmakers yesterday. Them he came into town with the money fairly scream- ing for recognition and with the reck- lessness of an easy winner threw bills and goldpieces to the four winds. His first investment was in a small dog, valued at $35, which he bought for 9500. He gave it to the cashier at the Alexandria Hotel. Next he procured a $50 puppy, but meeting a young woman who took his fancy, pup No. 2 also van- ished. To cap the climax of his dog purchases the young plunger found a handsome bulldog and parted with the sum of $3500. That canine, Nominator Superior, is a recent arrival from “across the pond.” |His former owner, Bryce D, Palmer, a widely known dog fancier of Man- chester, England, is spending the winter

ENGLAND BIDS HIGH FOR GOTCH-MAHMOUT MATCH CHICAGO, Jan. 15.—Chicago will be deprived of witnessing the wrestling match between Yussiff Mahmout and Frdnk Gotch. Unless the Empire Ath- letic Club can raise the purse offered by B. Martinelli, the match most likely will go to England. Antoine Pierre, Mahmout’s manager, received a letter from Martinelli, a wrestling promoter of London, offering a& purse of £2500 for a match between iahmout and Gotch, the match to be held some time in March, in England. Martinelli is well known in wrestling

C. of Los Angeles tonight. They will battle at 133 pounds, weigh in at 3 p. m. McFarland will have to outpoint Hyland in order to get any important fights on the coast, for if the latter should .best .him, Packey might just as well pack up and return to Chicago. Freddie Welsh, the crack English lightweight, has consented to meet the winner. Willie Lewis, the middleweight fight- er, who is matched to fight 10 battles in Paris, will begin his first contest there on Saturday night, when he will meet Bill Curzon, the English middleweight, for % rounds before the Bowling Palace A.

JOHN L. PLANS TOUR OF WORLD Veteran Fighter Decides on- Long Trip to Many Foreign “Countries.

BOSTON, Mass., Jan. 15.—John L. Sul- livan, the noblest Roman of them. all, leaves here Sunday night for a tour of the world that will include all the English speaking countries, as well as many continental places where the fame of the one-time champion is al- most as well known as it is at home. Plans for the big trip, which have been under way for some time, were completed yesterday. This means that when Sullivan completes his engage- ment at the Old Howard, this city, Sat- urday night, it will be his last public appearance in Boston for many years and possibly the last time he ‘will ever be seen in his home town with the gloves on. Sullivan, it is known to his friends, has had for some time past a longing to let up on the strenuous work inci- dent to his theatrical erigagements and to settle down on a small farm and enjoy for the rest of his days the money he has saved during the past five years, since he- took his firm clinch on the front seat of the water wagon. Leaving Boston Sunday night, Sullivan will go direct to Seattle and will tour the cities of the Pacific Coast. Later he will leave for Australia, stopping at Honolulu. After visiting the cities of the antipodean continent he will then work his way back to Western Europe by easy stages and will close the long trip with a series of exhibitions throughout England and Ireland.

NEW YORK, Jan. 15.—Manager Rog- er Bresnahan of the St. Louis Cardi- poi. who is decked out with the most expensive human baseball.chattel of ali times, is in town from his home in To- ledo.

Mc- Graw has several men that Roger is sweet on, Fred Merkle and Charlie Her- zog being two of them. McGraw and Roger met at McGraw’ S billiard parlor and had a short talk. The manager of the Giants does not feei inclined to part with any of his play-

ers that have been tried out until he sees them at work at Marlin Spring».

Manager Harry Lumley of the Brook- lyns, will be in the city today. The Tro:- ley Dodgers also have some superfluous material and there may be some trac- ing. “While I have 26 men on the reserve list of the St. Louis club,” said Roger, “T cannot now say how many of them are sure of their jobs. I am out to strengthen the team andi the manage- ment is ready to support me in every way.”’ Bresnahan asked to have denied tne story that he had been robbed of his gold watch and $600 during the six-day bicycle race last month at Madison Square Garden. . “Nothing of the kind ever happened,”’ he said, HONEYMOON TOUR WAS A RIDE IN A PATROL WAGON
