She ts there to hear the Rev. Albert Carl Atherton, a traveling revivalist and “gospel healer’ from St. Louis, whom she has been ~ sisting in his meetings. At both places Lemon openly de- nounced Atherton, accusing him of through hypnotic influence. He publicly pleaded with his wife to return home, and when his efforts failed tried to have her adjudged insane. Failing in this, he returned home.

Traveling Salesman Accuses His Wife and Wealthy Farmer.

‘Squire Nathan of Alton faced a queer legal puzzle when Henry T. Scurlock of Whitehall, T1l., 3 miles northeast of St. Louis, went to him and said: “I want to get a search warrant for my wife, ere: “But you can’t get a search warrant for anything but chattels, some sort of physical property that belongs to you,” said the ‘squire. “But my wife belongs to me, doesn’t she?” said Scurlock. “Yes, I guess she does,” said the *squire.” “Well, then, that makes her my prop- erty, doesn’t it?” ' Had the Squire Guessing. “That seems logical,” mused the ‘squire. “And she’s physical, isn’t she?’’ *“*Reckon there’s no doubt about that,"’ said the ‘squire. “I guess I'll give you the search warrant, all right. But I'll have to alter it some.” So he scratched out the word ‘‘chat- tel” and substituted “‘the person of his wife, to-wit, one Cora D. Scurlock.”’ Armed with this queer paper. Scur- lock, accompanied by J. F.

i ACCUSES FRIEND LOVE PIC IN IVORCE BIL Acquaintance Met Wife Clandestinely.

Frederick F. Bayer, a member of the City Fire Department, Saturday filed an application for divorce from his wife Sophie, in which he accuses a fel- low fireman and life long friend, Henry Cc. Sturmfels, with having stolen his wife’s affections. The Bayers were married Jan. 2, 1902, and lived happily together, apparently, until about four months ago, when Bayer received an anonymous letter telling him that his wife had an “af- finity.”’ He then discovered, he says in his petition, that she had been clan- destinely meeting \Sturmfelis. Bayer is a member of No. 11 Fire Com- pany and lived with his wife at 3627A Wisconsin avenue. Sturmfels was a member of Fire Department Company No. 15, and lives at 3219 Miami street. Mrs. Bayer since her .separation from her husband has lived at 3612A South Broadway. When Bayer heard that his wife and Sturmfels had been meeting un- known to him, he notified Chief Swingley, who suspended Sturmfels pending ah inquiry. Anonymous Letters Angered Him. Mrs. Bayer said Saturday that Sturmfels was an old sweetheart of hers, but thet since Bayer cut him out they had merely been friends and that her husband had no cause to be jealous. “My husband came home Monday at noon,” she said, “and told me he had received. an anonymous letter which stated that I had been familiar with another man. The letter did not give any man’s name, but my husband con- cluded that it referred to Sturmfels. He told me to take Mabel, our 6-year- old daughter, and get out and said that if we did not te would push us out.

In the course of her examination Mrs. Atherton told how Mrs. Stirling, in an exeited state over an approaching crisis, purchased a re- volver and threatened to take Northland’s life if he failed to marry her or contemplated divorce. ‘“‘She said to me: ‘I won’t be treated as you were’—allusion to Capt. Yarde-Buller’s desertion, of Mrs. Atherton—‘and if he won't marry me I'll shoot him, sure,’ ”’ Mrs. Atherton said. “Then if she bought a revolver to shoot Lord Northland why did you tell him to take it away from her?’ asked Lord Northland’s counsel. “I thought she oughtn’t to have it,” was the reply. . After going into the details how she did everything in her power to _ keep Lord Northland and Mrs. Stirling apart —in denial of the testimony of Mrs. Stirling, who declared on the wit- ness stand that Mrs. Atherton delib- erately attempted to separate her from her husband, Mrs. Atherton asserted that she had no thought of a meeting to take place between Mrs. Stirling and Lord Northland if his lordship ac- cepted her (Mrs. Atherton’s) invita- tion to accompany her on her voyage to Canada when Mrs. Stirling was vis- iting Washington. “You know,” said counsel, “that Mr. Stirling had detectives watching his wife in America, and was it not planned for Mrs. Stirling to meet you in Can- ada?’’ “Yes, but Lord Northland was stop- ping in Quebec, whereas I was going to Montreal.”’ Mrs, Atherton denied that the present to her of a cigarette case from Lord Northland was a token of ‘recognition [| of her services as a go-between.

After describing a visit she made to ® private room of the Hanover restau- ront where, as she said, she found Mrs. Stirling sitting on Lord WNorth- land’s knee, Mrs. Atherton told of a midnight visit which Lord Northland made to Amberley Cottage. “I heard a stone strike my window,’’ she said, “and sending my maid to in- vestigate, she found it was Lord North- land.

Two lives were lost and two children, ‘hut in the storra in the Illinois Tri-cities. and families living in tents and wagons were driven from their chilly abodes to seek shelter in police stations at Granite City; Venice and Madison. Josephus Mikoshal, the head of a fam- Aly of six, was killed while waiking on the Chicago, Peoria & St. Louis railroad track in Madison, the gale and the blinding snow having prevented him from seeing the approach of a north- bound passenger train. The blizzard kept the engineer from pOmng him in time to stop. Charles Jakovitch, % years old and single, fell on the icé at Sixth and Madi- son streets, Madison, and broke his neck, dying instantly. A tree, blown down by the gale, crashed through the top of a tent on Carr Island, near Venice, and 4-year-ol@ Willie Carroll’s arm was broken, while his sister, Edith, 2 years old, and their mother, Mrs. Frank Carroll, were in- jured, and all suffered from the expos- ure to the wind. But for the arrival of Postmaster Bu- enti and Arnold Romann of Venice, who had started for the Island before. the accident occurred, the infants might have perished. The husband and father had heft to seek relief. The family was removed to a vacant house in Venice, and will be provided for by the town until the storm and cold subéide. , Chaties Chamberlain, whose tent ad- joins that of the Carrolis, escaped ” jury, as did his family.

CHOUTEAU BRIDGE SITE [5 APPROVED BY COUNCILMER ws Committee Reports Favorably and Vote Will Be Taken Tuesday Afternoon. —

Through the efforts of Councilman Al R, Thomson,:chairman of the Council's Public Improvements Committee, the bill to locate the west approach of the [Free Bridge in Chouteau avenue has been favorably reported and. will be put to a vote next Tuesday afternoon. The agreement to submit the bill to the Council for prompt disposition was reached by Mr. Thomson and Messrs. Stix and Fitzsimmons, his colleagues on the committee, following a public hearing on the location of the approach, Friday afternoon, Only one protest—that of Samuel Plant of the George P. Plant Milling Co.—was voiced at the hearing. Frank H. Gerhart spoke fer the bill in behalf of the United Free Bridge Committee several of whose members were pres- ent. The absence of Councilmen Stix and Fitzsimmons through a part of the hearing and an early adjournment pre- vented all the champions of the measure from speaking. Acting independently of the Council, the Board of Public Improvements has asked opponents and advocates of the plan to construct the approach of the bridge in, Chouteau avenue to express their views to the commissioners Tues- day morning. Assembly Final Authority. The opinion of Former City Coun- selor Ben Schnurmacher and Former Associate City Counselor William F. Woerner ts that the Municipal Assem- bly is the final authority in’ determin- ing the site of th® approach. Present indications aré that the Coun- cll will unanimously support the propo- sition to use Chouteau avenue. Frank H. Gerhart, at the public hear- ing, said the use of Chouteau avenue would obviate legal Celays that wouid bé inevitable if an attempt was made to condemn the land of the Iron Moun- tain Railroad, including ita roadbed and depots, and would prove more econom- ical than the purchase of private prop- erty. . The courts, Mr, Gerhart declared, would hesitate to deprive the railroad of land and facilities Which ft was us- ing daily. Contrasting the amount of damages likely to result from the use of Chou- téau avenue with the vost-of acquiring the right of way proposed by President O'Reilly of the Board of Public Im- provements, Mr. Gérhart sald that the former plan was cheaper by $137,875. Samuel Plant informed the commit- tee that if the approach is built in Chouteau avenue it would greatly in- terfere with ‘the operation of his com- pany’s mille, Damagés of not less than $250,000, he said, would be claimed by the Plant company.

Two lives were lost and two children: hut in the storm in the Illinois Tri-cities. and families living in tents and wagons were driven from their chilly abodes to seek shelter in police stations at Granite City, Venice and Madison. Josephus Mikoshal, the head of a fam- ily of six, was killed while walking on ‘the Chicago, Peoria & St. Louis railroad track in Madison, the gale and the blinding snow having prevented him from seeing the approach of a north- bound passenger train. The blizzard kept the engineer from seeing him in time to stop. Charles Jakovitch, % years old and single, fell on the icé at Sixth and Madi- gon streets, Madison, and broke his neck, dying instantly. A tree, blown down by the gale, crashed through the top of a tent on Carr Island, near Venice, and 4-year-ol@ Willie Carroll’s arm was broken, while his sister, Edith, 2 years old, and their mother, Mrs. Frank Carroll, were in- jured, and all suffered from the expos- ure to the wind. But for the arrival of Postmaster Bu- enti and Arnold Romann of Venice, who had started for the island before. the accident occurred, the infants might have perished. The husband and father had eft to seek relief. The family was removed to a vacant house in Venice, and will be provided for by the town until the storm and cold subside. j ; Chaties Chamberlain, whose tent ad- joins that of the Carrolis, escaped ~ jury, as did his family.

ARRESTED FOUR TIMES IN THREE DAYS, THEN SU > Wife’s Divorce Papers Don't Jar Triaich; -He’s Used to Trouble.

When Lazo Triaich of East St. Louis was arrested for the fourth time within three days on his wife’s complaint, he concluded he might as well stay in jail and save her the trouble of having him arrested again. Also, his friends were beginning to complain of his fre- quent calls on them for service as bondsmen. So he settled back in his cell for a few days’ peace and quiet. Then a Deputy Sheriff came in. ‘Your name Lgz-z-z?’’ sputtered the deputy, and the prisoner interrupted him with: #§#£°* “You can’t arrest me. I’m arrested now. Four times it makes in three days, and too much is enough.” “IT don’t want to arrest you,” said the Deputy Sheriff. ‘I only want to serve this. summons on you.” And he drew out the papers in Mrs. Triaich’s newly filed divorce suit. “That alli?’’ said Triaich. The deputy said it was. A boarder at the Triaich home, 326 Exchange avenué, had to do with caus- ing two of the arrests. His wife and the boarder charged him, at the time of his latest arrest, with threatening them both with a revolver. He has paid a $25 fine in the first of the four cases.

CARTHOUAKE IN SPAIN: LITTLE DAMAGE: DONE , First Reports Said Barcelona and Other Towns Were Destroyed.

MADRID, Jan. 30.—All communica- tion with Southern Spain and with the City of Barcelona is uninterrupted and normal, and the reports emanating from England relative to a disastrous earthquake and tidal wave are untrue. There was a slight earth shock at Totana, in the Province of Murcia, but no serious damage was done. The walls of only a few hguses were cracked. Slight shocks were also felt in the neighborhood Village of Olias. At both Totana and Olias the inhab- itants fled panic-stricken to the sub- urbs, fearing that a disaster was upon them such as devastated Sicily and Southern Italy. The sun was hidden by a dense gray cloud, which, however, disappeared immediately, while a show- er of hailstones as large as wa)nuts covered the ground. A landslide occurred near Ceuta, a Spanish town in Morocco, across the Strait of Gibraltar, which is said to have buried the village of Romara, killing several hundred. A landslide occurred at Ceuta a week ago, due to excessive rains. Yesterday's disaster was undoubtedly caused Wy the quake.

_ St. Louis Banker Tells Com- mercial Students Big Gorpo- rations Are Necessary:

FOR FEDERAL CONTROL

Believes Congress Should En- act Statute to Define Rights of States.

NEW YORK, Jan. 30.—The undergrad- uates of the School of Commerce of New York University held their annual din- ner last night at the Hotel Astor. They had as their toastmaster Frank A. Van- derlip, president of the National City Bank, and among their speakers was Charlies H. Huttig, president of the Third National Bank of St. Louis, who made a plea for the trusts. He said: am a@firm believer in the economic trend of the times, that is, the inclina- tion of capital to concentrate and con- solidate. The tendencies of the last dozen years have been clearly away from a wasteful and déstructive com- petitive system that brought failure and ruin to a great many well-managed business concerns “Which had to go down in obedience to the harsh law of the survival of the fittest. “It is, in my opinion, a great mistake to hamper and restrict the spirit of en- | terprise that did so much to build up this country to its present pre-eminence. Our wonderful natural resources and our constantly increasing population call for a continuation of a Mberal govern- mental policy towards all honestly or- ganized and conducted enterprises. “To attempt to unduly limit or re- strict the profits of business can have no other effect than to corresponding- ly curtail and restrain business proj- ects. Investors are not going to take the hazard of building railroads acroas unoccupied prairies if the control of their investments and the management of their properties are not free from un- reasonable limitations as to their opera- tion and profits. Must Measure Control. “T cheerfully concede that the sov- creignty of the State should be fully recognized by all users of the public highways, but the measure of the con- trol will have to be figured out by wise and considerate lawmakers, on a basis of fair treatment of the stockholder, as well as the public. “The State assumes the right to legis- late in connection with such properties, notwithstanding the fact that the same powers are vested in Congress. It i- economically unsound and politically un- wise that such conflicting authority shonld exist and it would seem Con- gress would do wisely to define th:> scope of such control. The state has and should have ad- ministrative rights over railroads not leaving its boundaries, while in the case of interstate roads it would appear that exclusive Federal jurisdiction should ob- tain. “My own observations as to the state of the public mind in reference to cor, porations are limited to sections of the Mississippi Valley and the Southwest. General Public Is Hostile. “Among the well-balanced thinking men, I do not believe there is any prej- udice against the honestly managed cor- porations, be they industrial or rall- road. The public, in a general way, is hostile to actual monopolies and is not disposed to give them friendly sideration on any terms. “IT believe this attitude on their part illustrates an element of human na- ture that is common to all of us, and while the tendency. of the times is to look upon the big corporations with more favor, the monopolies will share but little in the changing sentiment. “There has been much criticism by the people against the corporations and the captains of industry have not hesi- tated to resent and decry this antago- nism. The facts are, the mutuality of interests: has been lost sight of and the interdependence of the capitalistic class with the so-called public must be given more prominence by those who assist. in forming public sentiment, “In conclusion, I wish to say that I have absolute confidence in the ultimate and final judgment of the people. Our own experiences in this country prove the average voter can be depended on in the long run to dirferentiate between sound policies and those of the 16 to 1 variety, Government ownership of raii- roads, guarantee of deposits, etc. “Let us have an abiding faith in our own people and in that connection al- low me to suggest that much good as well 2s some harm has resulted from the adverse comment and _ criticism against the corporate interests, and to- day a higher plane of business ethics exists than at any time in eur com- mercial life. “It is now to be hoped that we may have a cessation of this agitation and that a new era of good will and Pam, operation be entered upon in the in- terest of greater material prosperity, as well as for a higher ethical and social development.” We Sell on Credit Fine Diamonds, Watches, leweiry, Sil- yerware, Cut Glass, at cash prices, on ensy payments.

, oem 7 HE Heroes of the Nations series is enriched by “A Biography of William _ the Conqueror,” by Frank Merrry Stenton. The book is a study of con- it as well as a personal history and the author makes an attempt, Y unsuccessful, to discover and state the law of orderly development its way to the surface under the brute disorder of that Les 2 who used the vital forces of his time to build up a coherent state and it upon & legal foundation where it would be beyond the reach of the centrifu-.. 1 fc pees of barbarism and the spirit of adventure. The account of the conquest f and the subsequent military and pclitical difficulties which beset the con- seror during the 2) years in which he hammered English society into shape, » Supplemented by chapters on the relations of the State and the church, administrative system, and the Domesday or census of 1083. These are -Most important chapters for the student who would study the origins of ‘institutions in the legal and social antiquities of the eleventh century, book is & real contributor to reai history and will be welcomed by all Ni eave for something more than great battles and murders and the gossip great persons. (G. P. Putnam's Sons.) R. ORISON SWETT MARDEN’S latest contribution to the literature of good cheer is “Peace, Power and Plenty," a book which, while it con- tains no thoughts or suggestions which are new, yet views the whole betion of happiness, health and good fortune from the point of view of a ident, robust temperament. Dr. Marden insists that the mind has power ) compel the body, and this is the thought which vitalizes all things said in ~ his book, “If you would attract gocd fvurtune, you must get rid of doubt.” So tae oaed has power to compel fortune and bring it to pass. The old thought ' “thou art what thou art,” gives way to the thought that “you can be what you will to be,” all things are within your power. That doubt, distrust of self, pov- erty, {ll health and all other evils can be put to flight by the power within is a helpful doctrine. And we are told that the power can be elicited by autosug- ‘Bestion, rules for which are furnished abundantly. For those who are already in thie way of thinking, Dr. Marden's book will be a reinforcement, and it may heip those who are in the way of doubt, disease and poverty to get rid of their “tfoubles. At any rate, such books have only a good influence. (Thomas Y. nn & Co.) "MERSON HOUGH has not written another “Mississippi Bubble’ in _ “Fifty Four Forty or Fight,” but he has produced a nistorical nove! of _ "= a period into which it is very interesting to range. It will be remem- sires that in the 1340’s England was a contender with us for the Oregon Terri- _ tOfy and that the ultimatum of the Americans was “Fifty-four forty or fight.” It is this stirring boundary slogan which Mr. Hough «makes the title of his book. He introduces Tyler and Polk, gives the reader a quite intimate view of Calhoun and ‘nds the woman for his romance in the Baroness Helena von Ritz, a beautiful Austrian secretly employed in the diplomatic service ot. Engiand. The adventures of Nicholas Trist, a young American similarly by the United States, constitute the story. It is not a story to be mmended with enthusiasm, but it is well told, has its highly dramatic mo- merits, and is especially enjoyable for its pictures of life in old Washington. » On the Oregon Trail and in, Oregon itself .(Bobbs-Merriil.)

LOVERS’ HEART THROBS.

ONATHAN SWIFT, an English satirical writer, best known as the author of “Gulliver's Trav. els,” was satirical and biting in his love affairs as in all else, as is*shown by the following ‘extraordinary love letter, written to Jane Waring, the sis- ter of a college chum: “Madam: Impatience is the most in- separable quality of a lover. In my ease there are some circumstances ‘which will admit pardon for more than ordinary disquiets, That dearest ob- ject, upon which all my prospect of happiness entirely depends, is in dan- ger to be removed forever from my sight. ° “You have had time enough to con- sider my last letter and to form your own resolutions upon it. I wait your answer with a word of impatience. I desire nothing of your fortune; you shall live where and with Whom you ing my ruin, and it is so then. will she weep at the to me? nocence than I. much discretion, is a to do me justice. Only remember if Love Deep and Sacred. My dearest: UST three days since we have part- J ed and I have lived through such wonderful scenes since, that I scarcely know myself when I think of it. But it is not that I am going to write, I have written all that to mother and she will show it to you. But since I parted from you I have been a changed man, I will never forget how you looked then and what you said. Nothing in my life ever had such an effect upon mé. I thought that I loved you before; But I went away feeling that love was something so deep and high and sacred that I was ndt worthy to name it to you. I cannot think of the man in the world, who is worthy of what you said you felt for me.

They couldn’t see me as a drawing card. Jack Powell took a big interest in the matter and tried to per- suade Haughton to put me on and as- sured him that if I were given the chance I would make good. Haughton was stubborn, however, and said ‘“‘Nay, nay,’ to everybody. There Was nothing to be done but go to Kansas City.

As it was, a great many of the spectators thought that I was entitled to the decision. A couple of weeks after my Kansas City engagement with Clarence English I went to Pewaukee Lake for a little recreation. Upon my arrival I found Eddie Santry there training for an en- gegement with Eddie Sterns. A few Gays before this bout, which was to take place at Michigan City, he was taken sick, and I, being under the same management, Manager Murphy Substituted me in order to save the forfeit money. I was in fair condition, having been training with Santry. We met on Aug. 2, and of all the raw deals ever handed me, this one certainly takes the cream. We were billed to go 10 rounds to a decision a: 133 pounds each. We had $60 up for weight and appearance, but when my manager (Murphy) and I arrived in Michigan City, about noon, we found that Sterns had taken down his weight forfeli, and, being Overweight, also re- fused to weigh in. Nevertheless, we ions the forfeit, and I went on and Bat Gets Raw Deal. Of course, at that time I wasn't so much of a card, and didn’t have so much chance to argue about the ref- eree, etc, and had to accept any ref- eree the club put in the ring. We $y into the ring and went at Before the fight had gone half a minute I Knockéd Stearns out, and he was given at least fifteen seconds to get to his feet.

He doubled up like a jackknife, and down he went, completely out, as limp as a rag. His seconds and the ref- eree carried him to hts corner and he was given the decision, I believe, for taking more knockdowns than I did. When we came to the boxoffice to settle up. I was to receive $125 guar- anteed, win, loge or draw, two raill- road fares and hotel bill.

FALL COSTS JOE FORSHAW FIRST MARATHON SKATE wr

Joe Forshaw, winner of Marathon runs, might have been a winner on skates for the twenty-six and a fraction miles which make up the classic dis- tance covered by the soldier of Mara- thon but for a fall. In iast night’s skat- ing race at the Auditorium, a field of nine started and the race soon resolved into a contest between W. W. Minges of the M. A. C., Harry Lang of the St. Louls Cycling Club and Forshaw of the M. A. C. The race was a sée-saw for the leadership throughout, each of the trio making the pace at times. In the later miles Forshaw was in the lead, but at the twenty-sixth mile Harry Lang sneaked up and passed him. Forshaw put on speed to regain his lost ground, but in doing so lost his stride and fell, losing half a lap. As a result Lang and Minges sprinted to the finish, Lang winning by 15 yards. Forshaw rose in time to snatch third position from the rest of the field. / Lang's time for the event was 1 hour and 3% minutes. i. PHILADELPHIA FANS TO GET FREE SCORE CARDS PHILADELPHIA, Jan. 30,—Philadel- phia will have the distinction of being the firgt city in the big leagues where baseball fans will be supplied with score cards free of charge. The man- agement of the Athletics made the defi- nite announcement today that when Shibe Park is opened to the public in April, the practice of charging for cards would be abolished. A card containing the name of visiting and ‘home players with space to make a complete score of the game will be handed to each fan without cost. President Shetsline of the Philadel- phias, said that free score cards would undoubtedly be served to their support- ers next season. GOVERNOR TAKES HAND IN LITTLE ROCK FIGHT GAME LITTLE ROCK, Ark., Jan. %.—Gov. Donaghey has instructed Sheriff Rob- erts no to permit the Sullivan-Wolgast fight to take place in this city next Wednesday night. The Governor told the Sheriff that if any attempt is made to pull off the contest he will call out a company of the State Guard to pre- vent it if necessary. The Police Com- mittee of the City Council was in. ses- sion, considering the proposition of issu- ing a periait for the fight when word of the Governor's acton reached them.

They mixed it. champion. Moran, at that moment, He was a pretty sight, with his clear white skin, his sharp-cut looked very much like a real features and his great shoulders. He danced in and out swiftly, feinting Mur- phy into a puzzled state and drawing out hooks and jabs that fell short. For two rounds both missed a good deal and there was little to choose. Then they settled down to the real work of the evening. Round after round there was little variety in the fighting. Both were very careful, yet they were always together. They were so evenly matched in cleverness that nine blows out of ten were either blocked or avoid- ed by quick sidestepping and _ rapid ducking. The Englishman, like all En- glish fighters, relied most upon getting his head out of the way. Many times he made Tommy miss so far that it looked as if\the Harlem lad’s judgment of distance had left him. Tommy, on the other hand, was quicker with ‘his parries and caught most of Moran's blows on his gloves or forearms.. From the third to the eighth round Moran held a clean lead, landing oft- ener and with better punches. In my judgment both boys have gone back. Moran didn’t have his old speed and en- durance and Murphy has certainly lost the knack of hitting hard. There was a time when his left hook spelled knock- down, but last night it wouldn’t have dented an egg. His right (they say it was injured in training) was no better. Murphy has sacrificea nis real fighting ability for “cleverness.” At the end of the eighth round Moran was far ahead in points and had opened a cut over Murphy’s right eye with a hard left hook delivered in a mix-up. But when the ninth began Tommy

flashed out frdm his corner and tore after the Briton with every intention of finishing ihm. They slugged all around the ring and along the plush- covered ropes. In every mix-up Mur- phy had the best of it. Moran couldn’t head him off. The English fighter’s speed dwindled and he failed to get away from Tommy’s punches or to land his counters, The crowd—the whole 2800 with the exception of Charlie Harvey— was up rooting for Murphy. And then the bell rang and Moran was still on his feet and fighting back. Murphy started the tenth with an- other whirlwind rush, slugging hard. Moran met him better this time and held his own in the mixing game. To- ward the middle of the’ round both were dog tired, but still trying hard for the finishing punch. They were both rough- ing with head and shoulders. Over- eager, Murphy kept dashing in and hurling himself against Moran .without landing a clean punch. The last bell found them tangling it still, neither In any danger, although Moran was the weaker of the two. The last round was fairly even, a shade, perhaps, in Murphy's = favor. Considering the fact that Murphy had a clean lead in only one round of the fight, while Moran captured no less than six straight, it can easily be seen that the decision must go to England. Going out I heard somebody say: “What would Driscoll do to Moran?” and everybody laughed.

The Show Committee of;the St. Louis Automobile Manufacturers’ and’ Dealers’ Association will meet in the office of the show manager, Lioyd H. Rickart, 701 Times Building, Saturday evening, at 8 o'clock, to assign the spacés for the accessory and motor buggy exhib- its. Other final arrangements for the third annual show will also be settled. Louis B. Meidner of the Meyer-Schmid Grocer Co. has purchased a model .T Ford touring car for use in covering his territory. The Messrs.

Everybody who is interested is try- Ing to find out from Mr. Hower where the tour is going, but he is preserving this as one of his annual secrets. It will be the sixth annual contest of the American Automobile Association and there is a scramble from various sec- | tions of the country to secure it.

Fifty men, representing various civic and business organizations, went through the blizzard Friday night to at- tend a meeting at the Odeon and help @tart a boom for Councilman F. Ernest Cramer for the Republican mayoralty nomination. Leo A. Landau, vice-presi- Gent of the Advertising Men’s League, presided. Mr. Cramer was not present. A committee of five which waited upon the Councilman after the meeting at his e, 322 Shenandoah avenue, was in- formed by him that he would give his answer to the request to become a can- Gidate Tuesday. _At the meeting Mr. Landau told of . Cramer's record in the City Coun- a alluding to his favorable position on _ Buch questions as free bridge, 20m? fille, public utilities commission, grade ‘rossings, natural gas and initiative and é _ Referendum. . “We don’t care just now who the Re- wants for said Mr. Landau. “We are there to let the public know who we want. ‘That person happens to be Mr. Cramer.

In the Grieg selection which the Kneisel Quartet will play during their concert at the Odeon tonight, there are two movements, the third and fourth, which have not been heard in Sit. Louls before. They were completed by Julius Roentgen Sr. an intimate friend of Grieg. Mr. Roentgen is the father of Julius Roentgen, second violin of the Kneisel Quartet. Grieg at his death left them as sketches ‘in manuscript form. The first two movements of this work of Grieg are antong the most charming that Grieg wrote. The whole selection is in entire contrast to the well-known quartet, opus 27, both in content and in form. The first movement is in the classical quartet style, and there is no trace of the fantastic or passionate. Ev- éerything is clear, gay and gracefu' throughout—more Danish than Norwe- gian. The twelfth popular concert by the St. Louls Symphony Orchestra tomorrow promises a most delightful. program. Mrs. Bernice Wyer, pianiste, will be the soloist. Mrs. Wyer has frequently ap- peared before St. Louis audiences, where her playing has met with the warmest appreciation.

It would have been difficult for the Choral Art Society to have chosen a more meritorious and attractive work for its first concert this season than is offered in ‘“‘Paradise and the Peri,” by Robert Schumann. It will be sung, with pipe organ, piano and full orches- tral support, at the Lindell Avenue Methodist Church, Newstead avenue and Lindell boulevard, on the evening of March 11. The chorus section will number 60, se- lected from the ranks of the most gifted and popular singers of St. Louls, con- stituting the fixed numerical strength of the organization under its by-laws. The soloists will also be local, but in keeping with the demands of the oc- casion, the work and the superior char- The whole is to be under the musical direction of Mr. James T. Quarle: “Paradise and the Peri” is one of the masterpieces of Schumann, written dur- ing the honeymoon period of a marriage that was ideal throughout the lives of the great composer. St. Louis will have a season of grand opera at the Odeon in March, presented by the Lambardi Grand Opera company, with Mario Lambardil impresario and Sparks M. Berg manager. The company will present a repertoire of French and Italian operas by the following artists: Dramatic soprano, Elvira Campoli; mez- zo soprano, Dolores Frau; lyric tenor, Eugenio Battain; baritone, Angelo An- tola; bassi, Giovani Martino; lyric so- prano, Ester Ferrabini; soprano colora- tura, Cecilia Tamanti Zavaski and Olga Simsiz; tenor legero, Gerardi Graziani; baritone, Alessandro Modesti; bassi, Ar- tidoro Mauceri; basso buffo, Natale Cervi; Lyric soprano, Ardizoni Tosi; mezzo soprano, Renata Pezzati; dra- matic tenor, Allesandro Scalabrini; bari- tone, Giuseppe Pimazzoni; bassi, Paolo Wulman.
