JEFFERSON CITY, Feb. 11.—Senator Brogan of 8t. Louis. introduced a Dill today requiring every. legislative agent to wear a uniform, cap and badge. It is provided also that the cap and badge shall bear the initials of the legislative agent and the name of the ccerporation by which he is employed i9 oppose or promote legislation. The bill is designed as an amendment to the celebrated anti-lobby law. Un- der this statute all persons employed to act as legislative agents-«or counsel ere required to register at the Secretary of State’s office. The Secretary of State is authorized by the Brogan amendment to determine the quality, color and other necessary details of the proposed uniform for lobbyists. “T have seen a lot of wise people in- troducing bills and I thought I would just hand out a little one myself,’ said Brogan to the Post-Dispatch corre- spondent. “This is my maiden attempt at law- making. The greatest difficulty I have had so far is in distinguishing who are and who are not lobbyists. _/_ BILL REQUIRES LOBBYISTS TO WEAR UNI FORM AND CAP St. Louis Senator Declares All Legislative Agents Should Be Tagged---Other “Freak” Measurss. a

“A man likes to be on his guard, any- how—not ‘that I am particularily afraid of this class of people, but just to he ‘on thre know.’ “That’s why I think these guys—in- cluding the temperance workers as well as the corporation agents—ought to be uniformed the same as policemen and firemen.”’ Senator Brogan’s bill will be supported in the House of Representatives by Pemberton of. Boone County. “I think Senator Brogan’s idea is an excellent one,’’ said Pemberton today. “T have obtained a copy of the amend- ment and will be glad to present it. . I sincerely hope it will become a law.”’ Representative Hicks has introduced a bill requiring applicants for marriage licenses ‘to submit physicians’ certifi- cates stating their fitness to marry. Representative Busche wants a law prohibiting fortune telling and palmistry for pay.

Some of the girls fell to their knees and buried their heads in laps of the women keepers of the shops they, had stolen from and begged for mercy. Their parents were sobbing audibly. The shopkeepers themselves were moved to tears, and pleaded with the Chief to re- lease the girls, while their parents prom- ised that they would keep close watch on their daughters in future. The detectives recovered the stolen property in the cellars of the homes of the girls where it had been hidden without the knowledge of their parents. There were bolts of ribbon, lace hand- kerchiefs, kid gloves, vells, plumes, pieces of lace, hosiery and a lot of trifles. The girls are all very pretty and well dressed.

We had no intention of selling them. We just happened to go into @ store one day’and picked some- thing up and walked out with it, and we saw that it was no trick at all.” Tuesday the four girls went into the store of Mrs. Catherine Boyle at 6115 Delmar boulevard and while one of them was busy picking out a ribben the oth- ers strolled aboyt the store looking at the pretty things on the counters.

Booth & Co., the so-called Fish Trust, the story of alleged falsified financial statemenis presented

by the fish company to banks from which money was borrowed, was told by a witness under oath today. The witness was Frederick R. Rob- bins, formerly assistant treasurer of the Booth concern and at present manager for Reeeiver Chalmers. The testimony was given in connection with :the hear- ing being held by Master in Chancery Booth. Robbins testified that the books of the company were properly kept, but that statements presented in 1907 to the Com- mercial National Bank, the Continental National Bank, the Corn Exchange Na- tional Bank and the First National Bank, the bills payable by the firm were scaled down $1,000,000 and the bills, re- ceivable increased by about the same amount, a difference of about $2,000,000 in all. Previous erroneous statements, he said, had been mace. The following yea:, witness said, he had several conversations with W. Ver- non Booth, head of the firm, relative to the statements, and Mr. Booth expressed surprise at the state of affairs. Finally it was agreed to make a statement of the true condition of affairs to the banks concerned. “This was done last \August,’’. Mr. Robbins said. “W. Vernon. Booth, W. F. Cochran, Stephen Chase and our at- torney, H. 8S. Robbins, were présent.”’ “Did anyone state to the bankers who was responsible for the false state- ments?’ asked Attorney Newman, rep- resenting the creditors. “There Were suggestions made as to who was responsible,’ the witness an- swered. “Who was the man?’ “I, M. Smith, general manager of the Booth company. “Where was Smith at the time of this interview?" “En route to or from Seattle.”

a ea & ee She and Her Husband Arrested After “Sure- Thing’ Gambling Device Is Captured in Raid on Chouteau a». A Avenue..

Following the arrest of Joseph Treybol and his wife, Margaret Martilliano Trey- bol, a Salome dancer, in their room at 1233 Whouteau avenue, the police found there a complete electrical and mechan- ical equipment for controlling dice in games. Batteries connected with a powerful magnet were designed to govern the movements of “‘loaded’’ dice so that an outsider who might go there to play a “game of chance’ would have no chance to win. It was installed in a back room on the second floor, an apagment which Trey- bol ¥ occupied for 10 days. Indignant at Arrest. Henry Nussmann of 2006 South Broad- way told the police that he had been lured to the room, and that he lost $17 and a gold watch in a dice game. ment Wednesday night, only Treywol and hise wife were there. They were indignant when tola that they were under arrest. “Why, the idea!” said Mrs. Treybol. “We haven't done anything. We are just light-housekeeping here.” She was so earnest about it that the police thought they were mistaken until! they found the ‘“‘power-house.”’ How the Plant Was Found, Patrolmen Kidwell. and McGauley stepped on something which made a ridge under the rug.. They. lifted it and found two wires leading from a smal! centef table to the bed. Under the: bed they discovered two soap boxes, one containing 2 dry bat- tery cells and the other 16 wet battery cells. Following the course of the wires they found that they connected with two copper plates which had been concealed by the rug. These plates were directly under two legs of the table and at the bottom of each leg there Was ® copper pin to pierce the rug and form the con- nection with the plate.

When the raiders invaded thé apart- | i Mad the person playing against him win or lose. Small copper discs were placed in the dice in such positions that In “craps” and simfllar games the current supplied from the batteries and working through the magnet would cause the dice to fall metal side down. Mrs. Mary Hines, proprietor of che rooming house, says Treybo!l went there 10 days ago and his wife joined him a week later. “When I suggested that I put a table in the room he said it wouldn't be nec- essary, as he had a nice little red table that would be just the thing,”’ said Mrs. Hines. “He told me he was an élec- triclan. When his wife joined shim she told me she svas dancing at a local the- ater. They remaihed in their room most of the time, and never went out even- ings. Their only baggage was a trunk and sult case.’ Afraid of, Shocking Wife. At Police Headquarters Thursday Mrs. Treybot denied all Knowledge of the crooked dice table, ‘ “My husband told me he was an elec- triclan,” she said. “He was always ox- perimenting, but he wouldn't le& me go near his work.

MANY MEN AVAILABLE

It Is Understood That Council- men Will Be Consulted Be- * fore Mayor Acts.

Members of the Public Service Com- mission created by a bill which will be signed in the House of Delegates next Tuesday, will be appointed by Mayor Wells and not by President Forman of the Council, now acting Mayor, accord- ing to the Mayor's friends. Before departing for Augusta, Ga., Mayor Wells informed President For- man that his absence would not extend over two weeks. The same information was imparted by Mayor Wells to offi- cialis at the City Hall. : The public utilities bill cannot reach the Mayor's office before Feb. 20. If it s signed immediately, 10 days must @liapse before it becomes an ordinance, > that appointments would not be pos- ar sible before March 2—19 days hence. President Forman says there is no understanding between him and Mayor Wells as to the selection of the com- missioners. Will Consult Councilmen, it ts understood at the City Hall and by members of the Council that May- or Wells will name the commission, '. after consultation with councilmen. That is the method that Mayor Wells con- templated following when, last August, it was thought he would have to act under a bill later declared illegal. "If politics enters into the selection of the commission, at least one Republican will be chesen, but it is regarded even by councilmen as doubtful whether May- er Wells will consider partisan claims. As many Republicans as Democrats are members of the Municipal Terminals Commission, which Mayor Wells ap- pointed. Many Men Mentioned. Mayor Wells has given no intimation as to the men he prefers as commis- _ gloners.

— WILL REVIEW . PARADE President-Elect and His Wife Will Then Tour City in Carriages.

NEW ORLEANS, Feb. 11.—The scout cruiser Birmingham crossed the bar at 8:50 this morning and proceeded on her way up the river conveying President- elect Taft and party to New Orleans. Mr. Taft and his party transferred from the North Carolina to the Bir- mingham. half an hour before the start. ; As the president-elect boarded the Birmingham, the Montana and North Carolina fired salutes of 13 guns, and then weighing their anchors, put slow- ly out to sea. They became mere specks on the horizon almost before the Birmingham got well under way on her trip up the river. The President-elect was in fine spirits when he arose this morning and found one of the prettiest days of his trip breaking on the gulf. Mr. Taft appreciated the tooting of the little pilot boat whistles and smiled and doffed his hat as the Bir- mingham pushed up the river. The reception program for the day opened at ll a. m., when Mr. Taft was welcomed by the River Reception Com- mittee off the foot of Canal street. The afternoon program calls for an- other reception at the Canal street land- ing and Mr. and Mrs. Taft will be driven to the Pickwick Club to review the parade. After seeing the parade, the Presi- dent-elect will join it in a carriage and drive through the city. A slightly chilly wind served to inject more life to the occasion and to add to he activities of those engaged in making ready for the reception of the next President. A unique situation has arisen at the Hotel Grunewald, where Taft is to stay. It occurred to the management of the hotel today that the bath of Taft's quar- ters is only the regular tub of standard size, and it is feared that the President- elect will be unable to get into it. The management is accordingly mak- ing frantic efforts to .ave extra facili- ties installed. 200 WHITE SLAVES WILL BE SOLD ON LINCOLN’S BIRTHDAY AT PUBLIC CHURCH AUCTION Discouraged Men Who Can’t Find Work Offer Themselves to Highest Bidder. NEW YORK, Feb. 11.—On the birth- day of Lincoln, the great emancipator, 200 ‘‘white slaves’’ are to be sold at auc- tion by E. T. O'Loughlin, secretary of the Park Slope Board of Trade, to any- fone who will offer food, shelter or em- ployment. The 20 are young, middle aged and old nien, who, discouraged in the vain search for employment, are of- fering themselves to the highest bidder. The sale will be held in a Brooklyn church. O'Loughlin has already sold 50 men who were unable to find anything to do. The unique proceeding originated with a machinist who was advertised in the newspapers and sold to a woman to run a chicken farm in New Jersey, Among the bidders for the other men was a South American adventurer, who wanted a score of hardy, reckless spirits. In the consignment to be disposed of tomorrow night are several college grad- uates who have been shoveling snow for the city for several days. The men at the sale will wear black masks to con- eceal their identity. No difficulty is looked for in disposing of the 200. PASTOR REGISTERS AS LOBBYIST TO WORK FOR PROHIBITION LAY Feb. 11.—J.

room immediately =ext to that occupied by Mrs. Lemp?’ ‘| did not.” G. G. Pabst, president, of the Pabst Brewing Co. of Milwaukee, was put on the stand Thursday morning by Mr. Lehmann, attorney for Mr. Lemp, so that he might give his testimony and return at once to Milwaukee. Mr. Pabst is a brother-in-law of Wil- liam v. Lemp, having married his sister. He was at the wedding of Mr. Lemp to Miss Lillian Handian and was one of the witnesses to the ante-nuptial agree- ment between Mr. Lemp and Miss Handlan that if children were born of the marriage the mother would not at- tempt to influence them in a religious way. Mr. Pabst wa. shown this agreement and he testified regarding it: Mrs. Lemp is a memper of the Catholic church. Mr. Lemp is not a church member. She admits signing the pa- per, but says she did not understand its contents. After the brief testimony of Mr. Pabst the reading of the deposition of William J. Lemp, which begun Wednesday, was resumed. Testimony as to the wealth of Mr. Lemp was heard by Judge Hitchcock in a special session of court held Wednesday hight. It ,was contained in a deposition given by Mr. Lemp some time ago and read to the Judge by the lawyers. Mrs. Lemp and her father, A. Mandlan, contend that Mr. Lemp worth a million and a half, and they contend that the alimony the wife is to receive, if any is awarded, should be in proportion. Mr. Lemp says that he is worth con- siderably less than a million, with pros- pects that he will be worth less than he is now, owing to the spread of the prohibition sentiment, which is working injury to the property of brewers. This spread of prohibition and the losses he Nad sustained by it was referred to in several places in the deposition of Mr. Lemp. He showed where it had cut down his dividends and had even closea some of the Lemp plants in the South- west. Mrs. Lemp and her father contend that his income is about $50,000 a year. His own testimony is that it varies from $12,000 to $33,000 a year. For the ‘last three years it has been about $33,000 a year. And in addition to that he is allowed $5000 a year to spend in saloons and other places where his beer ig sold to get the good will of his customers Mr. Lemp will testify when he takes the stand that his visits to houses kept by women, which were. testified to Wednesday forenoon were simply visits of business. In those places large quan- tities of beer were sold and it was the custom of brewers to visit such places occasionally and spend money freely. Mr. Lemp's testimony showed that he was interested in a large number of busi- nesses outside of the brewery interest. He has breweries in Texas and Louisi- ana and ice, cold storage and refrigera- tor plants in towns in Missouri, Okla- home, Texas, Arkansas and Louisiana. In nearly all of these businesses he owns a one-seventh interest which was Hi. is

The part of Louis Lemp, one of the brothers, has since been bought by the others, and this brother lives in New York. When Mrs. Lemp Was Kunocked Down, The deposition read Wednesday re- ferred to the time when Mr. Lemp is alleged to have knocked his wife down. Mrs. Lemp testified when she was on the stand that he came into the bath- room and without a word having passed between them he knocked her down three times. Mr. Lemp says that he might have struck her in his excitement. If he did so, he says, it was because she made a disparaging remark about his mother, who was then in a dying condition. This angered him so that he lost control of himself. Gtrl of 16 Wartehes Scene The “regulars,’’ with their rustling skirts, staring eyes and eager whispers, were in the courtroom for Thursday’s session of the Lemp divorce trial]. But the casual attendants were few. Discouraged by the police and depu- ties, those whose interest in the suit and its principals is only a !passing one remained away from the Courthouse on this, the fourth day of the hearing. |Those who occupied the seats were the women, with here and there a man, who have been there every morning and afternoon, and apparently intend to continue until the domestic tragedy shall reach its closing scene. Among them is a girl of perhaps 16 and her mother. This mother and daugh- ter have attended each session of court since the trial began. They lean for- ward to catch each word. They stare and stare at Mrs. Lemp, even when they can see only her back. “Why are you so interested?” this young girl with the titian hair and large innocent-looking blue eyes was asked. “Oh,” she said, opening her eyes wid- er, in surprise, ‘“‘I wish to hear it, of course,”’ and then she added, with a giggle: “They are millionaires, you know.” The majority of' the women who come to the trial are attracted by the glamour of millions which the two principals in this divorce case represent. “It’s the first time I ever had a chance to see a millionaire at close hand,’’ said one woman who was asked why she came to the trial. “And they look just like other folks,” she added, as if this were a great dis- covery she had made.

ANON APPROVES ~ PLAN TO EVADE ~ CONSTITUTION tipulates Only That Action m His Behalf Be Non- partisan. ee HALE INTRODUCES BILL

Indications Are That Knox Will Become Secretary of State.

By Leased Wire From the Washington Bureau of the Post-Dispatch. WASHINGTON, Feb. 11.—The Senate Committee on Judiciary today reached the conclusion that by ‘reducing the salary of the office of the Secretary of State, now $12,000, to $8000. Senator Knox will be eligible to appointment by Mr. Taft for that position. The Committee held that such a salary | Peduction would get around the consti- | tutional prohibition against a congress- taking an office whose salary had n increased while he was in Con- Knox was a Senator when Cabinet officers was ‘the pay of the 4 S waleed from $8000 to $12,000. Senator Hale has introduced a bill re- pealing section 4 of the legislative act of 1907 so far as it relates to the salary of the Secretary of State. This, if passed, would leave the compensation at $9000 a year. Many lawyers of high standing and experience in the Senate believe that the adoption of the Hale bill will simply mean an evasion of the Constitution and that the United States Supreme Court, if the matter is brought before that tribunal, will pronounce the act in- valid. As Secretary of State it would be the ‘duty of"Mr. Knox to certify every act of Congress which becomes a law. The correctness of his claim to enforce that right would thus be brought before thé Supreme Court in the first law suit aris- ing after his assumption of office. Senator Rayner’s Opinion. Senator Rayner, a good constitutional - lawyer, came to the conclusion that an act for the reduction of the salary to where it was before it was increased will make Mr. Knox eligible.

FUGITIVES GIVE POLICE EXCITING RACE ON ROUTE 7 Alleged Forgers Leap From Third-Story Window When Officers Knock.

Hearing policemen in the hallway of their rooming house at 3006 Olive street, Ben Berg, a traveling salesman, and Homer Meigs, a shoeworker, accused of Passing a worthless check, leaped from a third story window to the roof of a two-story addition to the heuse, in an effort to escape. They were followed by the policemen, chased across the roof and were arrested while trying to raise a window of an adjoining house. Policemen Gibbons and Greer were searching for Berg and Meigs on com- plaint of Frank Bender, a grocer at 1324 South Compton avenue, who had cashed a check for $8.50, signed by Jonas Berg, ‘a wholesale hide dealer of Centralia, Mo., the father of Ben Berg. When the policemen knocked on the door of the room occupied by Berg and Meigs, they received no answer. They heard a window open and when they rushed into the room they saw the two men disappearing through a window. The policemen followed through the same window, and chased the men across the roof. They say that when they came upon the men they were try- ing to raise a window leading into the adjoining house. Both men were ar- rested without a struggle. When taken to the Manchester Ave- nue Police Station, Berg and Meigs de- nied that the check was worthleéss., Berg said he trave'ed for his father, and that the latter had given him permis- sion to sign his name to checks. He said the check would be paid by his fa- ther. The check was indorsed by Meigs who was known to the grocer. Explain- ing their flight, Berg said he had been in the city only a few days and not knowing much about the house in which he was living, thought it was being raided by the police. Bender cashed the check several days ago. No word has been received from Berg's father as to whether the check

is good.

Mr. Moffett was at his ca»sk when @ desperate-lodking man entered his of- fice, carrying in his right-hand a stick of dynamite. “Give me ,,.0,. stranger. The quick-thoughted banker remem- bered that he had one of the certificates of indebtedness in a pigeonhole. It was engraved like a banknote. “Sire, I'll give you $10,000," he said, handing the certificate to the visitor.

WASHINGTON, authentic repoewt among persons in the confidence of President Roosevelt has it that he, with the advice and consent of the Emperor of Japan, will provide a system of separate schools for the State 6f California, without legislative aétion on her part. The theory is that personal exchanges now going on betweén the two rulers will bring about a solution that will enable Japan to ‘‘concede’”’ the exclusion of Japanese children from the ordinary schools without loss of self- respect by the Emperor. The idea is that the personal relations between them are on such a good foot- ing that they will be able to arrange the whole matter so that California will get the separate schools desired by her citi- zens, and the Emperor of seed will an, will leave at once for New Mexico, for the purpose of bringing the girl back to Asheville.

Roosevelt Is Praised by Monsignor Mundelein at New York Banquet. NEW YORK, Feb. 11.—Mons, George W. Mundelein advocated the election of a Roman Catholic to the presidency of the United States in a speech last night at a dinner of thé alumnae of Manhattan College at the Hotel Knick- erbocker. “There never has Deen a President in the White House,” he said, “who has had more regard and fairness for the Catholic church than President Roose- velt. He has shown it by his fearless appointment of Catholics to high offices. “We are 14,000,000 strong and all we ask and what we want is the free ex- ercise of our faith, no discrimination against us and a square deal, and the man who gives us that we will vote for in the future as in the past, be he Catholic, Protestant or Jew.”

THREE BANDITS ROB A GIRL TICKET AGENT ON “L”’ ROAD They Cut Telephone Wires So She Could Not Call Help, ‘Then Steal $50. NEW YORK, Feb. 11.—After cutting the telephone wires so that she could not summon help, three Italians, with drawn revolvers, held up and robbed Grace West, 4 young woman employed as a ticket agent on the “L” station at Fifth avenue and Twentieth street, Brooklyn, after midnight this morning. All three of the men escaped. While one of the trio covered the girl with a revolver, the others broke into the booth and seized all the cash on hand, estimated at $50. When the men had gone, the girl rushed to a nearby drug store and no- tified the police. Search was ijmmedi- ately begun, but no trace of the men was found.

MASQUERADED AS WOMAN AND STOLE FROM FLIRTATIOUS MEN Slender Youth, Nabbed by the Po- lice, Said Game Had Worked Four Nights. NEW YORK, Feb. 11—James Daley, a slender youth who was arrested last night in Yonkers while masquerading in feminine attire, said he had been pos- ing as a young woman for four nights and flirting with men in order that he might rob them. Daley was captured after conversing with a detective, who became suspicious that his fair companion was not a woman, ‘and later proved his theory by tearing off Daley’s wig. . “My reason for masquerading,” he told the police, ‘‘was that I needed mon- ey and found that by dressing in wom- en’s clothes I could mix freely in crowds. After being wined and dined by men I found it easy to take all they had from their pockets. I am something of a hypnotist and by this means and sleight of hand I usually got the money.”’

THE VALUE OF A DOG MUST BE DETERMINED BY A COURT Woman Who Has 22 as 22 Canine Pets Says S ‘Was Worth $200 to $500. Expert testimony as to the value of| will dogs was given in Judge McQuillin’s court Wednesday/in the case of Mrs. Matilda Mosberger, who is suing Dr. G. H. Roose for the logs of an English toy spaniel named Ashton Mysteltoe, which was killed by the physician's automobile Aug. 17, 1907, In Kennerly avenue. Mrs. Brock Storts, a dog fancier, said: Mrs. Mosberg’s dog was worth between $200 and $500. Mrs. Storts said she owns 22 dogs, which she keeps in her home at 4929 Penrose street. Deputy. Sheriff John Boepple, who says he is an expert on dogs, was asked on the stand what he thought the dog was worth. He said he would first have to know the weight of the animal. “You measure the value of a dog by its avoir- dupois,"’ said Boepple. The case was taken under advisement. In a justice court Mrs. Mosberger, who says the dog was worth $500, obtained a judgment for $100, and the defendant The South Side Self cm .. will give an entertainm: **.. ° at Anchor - 4 avenucs, Thu ae nena remnant seem B Cures Colds ogi A never ic oy Ramen coughs and colds aol ten ee oe Somes oes he “Two ounces of glycerine, 04+ hs twenty-four hours.

Lawrence, Capt. D. C. Moore, from Norfolk to Boston with d¢oal, was pounding to pieces at daylight on Hen and Chicken Shoals, engulfed by moun- tainous seds and swept by a hurricane. ‘The captain, his wife and his crew of eight had been driven to the rigging, where they were clinging desperately, and all but exhausted, when help ap- Apeared, summoned by wireless. The res- cuers came in the nick of time, for no sooner had the last man been taken off than the little vessel broke in halves and was ground to pieces by rocks and resistiess billows. _ The rescue occupied six hours of peri- fous work by the combined life-saving crews of Cape Penelopen and Lewes stations. The Sarah Lawrence was com- ing up the coast when she was over- taken by a tremendous gale from the southward. The blow struck her sud- @enly and soon developed a velocity of @ miles an hour. Capt. Moore headed his heavily-laden craft for the Delaware Breakwater, lit- erally flying up the coast in the wild storm.

Gentlemen: Thank you: I thank vou time and again-each day for publish- ing the prescription of the great «pe- cialist on stomach disordera. We, jn our family, are great pie and cake eaters, and naturally we are, or have been, “all dyspeptics,” more or leas. My family consist of a husband, two daughters and a son. Scarcely a day but some of us were ill with eadache, stomach distress after cat- ing, biliousness, irritability, etc., and I frequently with heart trouble, due to wind and gas on stomach. From a “family of blues” we've been changed to a “family of.pinks” as we are 4&ll in the pink of health and eat more tha» ever. We got the prescription filled several times. I want to give this simple formula: Get two ounces syrup of. , two ounces essence of pep- sin one ounce compound essence cardiol. Mix in a bottle. Shake well and take one or two teaspoonfuls after MEMPHIS, jeach meal. One before eating will ex- good appetite. This will digest we eat and gives strength Hoping this will be pub- much .

Many persons are menor soe that drugs are not the thing to rebuild worn out nerves, but proper food is required. There is a certain'element in the cer- eals, wheat, barley, etc., which is grown there by nature for food to brain and nerve tissue. This is the phosphate of potash, of which Grape-Nuts food con-- tains a large proportion. In making this food all the food ele- ments in the two cereals, wheat and barley, are retained. That is why so many heretofore nervous and run down people, find Grape-Nuts a true nerve and brain food. — “I can say that Grape-Nuts food has done much for me as a nerve renewer, writes a Wis. bride: “A-few years ago, before my Mar- riage, I was a bookkeeper in a large firm. “I became so nervous toward the end of each week that it seemed I must give up my position, which I could not afford to do. es “Mother purchased some Grape-Nuts and we found it not, only delicious but I noticed from day day that I was om ghides,. until I finally realized I was hot nervous any more. ‘ “IT have recommended it to friends as a brain and nerve food, never hav- ing found its equal. I owe much to Grape-Nuts as it saved me ! a nervous collapse, and enabled me to retain my position.” _ « Name given by Poatum Co., Battle Creek, Mich.

Shore Duty for Col, Houts. ‘I shall ask to be assigned to shore duy,”’ said Vol. Charles A. Houts when he learned of the new requirement. ‘I'm going to Washington, but if I want a view of the city I can get it from the Washington monument better than from some skittish nag’s back, and later, perhaps, from an ambulance.”’ “I’m sure that order for a test ride isn’t meant to apply to me,” said Col. Lyman T. Hay. “The Governor knows, or can easily iearn, that a 20-mile ride is a very small matter for me. When I was a young man I used to ride over the Arkansas hills near Hot Springs, 4 miles at a time, sometimes in the night. to dances’’—— No Practice Prances Yet. “Call for Mr. Hay!" cried the tele- phone boy, and the proprietor of the Jefferson answered a call from Col.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 11.—Half the certified votes of the ‘electoral college ci: nvassed by Congress yesterday were not in due form, according to one of the tellers. The discovery of the errors will result in a movement to have Congress prescribe a form for the report of the votes from the various states. While the certificate from Wiscorisin contained probably the most offending error, that of casting the vote of that State for Willlam H.

Bad Breath and Sour Stomach Stopped At Once With Pure Wil- low Charcoal, the Greatest Gas Absorber Known. There is no necessity to suffer the humiliation, chagrin and discomfort of bad health, biliousness, sour stomach, atritis, sluggish liver, etc., when a Rittle lozenge of charcoal will cleanse the stomach and make it pure and sweet. Do not drug yourself when a simple little natural charcoal made from fra- ant willow branches,*sweetened with oney, will add tone to your stomach, liver and intestines, rapidly absorb gases and stop foul odors of all kinds. Charcoal will absorb one hundred times its own volume in gas. A box full of charcoal placed in a bed room will keep the dir of such a room pure and sweet. A little charcoal lozenge dissolved on the tongue after meals will also keep the stdimach fresh and clean. Charcna] is juatly called the scrubbing brush for the stomach. The old monks of medie- val times cured bad cases of stomach trouble, cast out devils from the sys- tem of man by feeding such 4 man charcoal. Scientific men of today believe in the great strength of charcoal for the cure of human ills. Too much of it cannot harm one. The system craves it just like an animal needs and craves salt every so often. Charcoal goes into the stomach gently and is welcome, it settles down through the action of the stomach, and filters through, all the food, absorbing gas, aiding digestion and giving tone to the juices, so that when the food goes into the intestines, and there meets other digestive fluids, the charcoal holds the impurities and thus keeps them from the blood.

TO. CURB THE SPEAKER’S POWER. The Washington’ News indicates a victory for the House reformers whd want the Speaker's arbitrary power curbed. Twenty-nine Republican insurgents are reported to be prepareu to join with the Democrats in supporting the plan of re- form agreed upon by the rebellious subjects of Czar Cannon. If the 29. Republicans adhere to ity of eight—201 to 193. The plan of reform covers two points vital to the liberation of the House from the Speaker’s absolute control. One amendment to the rules provides that a committee of the House instead of the Speaker shall select thie House committees. The other provides that Tuesday shall be set aside | as calendaf day, when the House may take action of the Speaker and the Rules Committee. - These amendments will free the House from the present intolerable domination of the Speaker. They will shift the power from the Speaker to the House itself and will open the door to free de- bate ‘and legislation. = = —_— a

The report of Gov. Hadley’s order for a 20-mile, riding test for the colonels of his staff must be a mistake. Missouri colonels do not ride, they strut. Let us have a 20-mile strutting test. —— i THE PUBLIC UTILITIES COMMISSION. The Municipal Assembly’s adoption of the Pub- lic Utilities Commission bill requires Mayor Wells to perform one of the most important ccts of his aédministration in its closing days. The selection of the three members of the commission rests

The passage of the bill by the Municipal As- sembly in its present form is a triumph of well ‘directed publicity, 4s was the enabling act of the State Legislature. The Post-Dispatch voicing pub- lic sentiment, prevented the defeat of the measure in the Legislature and by persistent effort forced the House of Delegates to favorable action on the commission ordinance. “But the fact that the first ctep toward the regulation of public utility corporations has been taken by the local authorities does not preclude the creation of a State co:nmission. _

. CO-OPERATIVE REFORM INFLUENCES. The platform and purposes of the Municipal Voters’ League, as outlined ‘for the Sunday Post- Dispatch by Harvey Christie of the League's Ex- ecutive Committee, is commendable. Its objectmis to promote independent voting, to obtain the fullest possible information concerning the char- acter and eapacity of candidates and recommend to the support of all voters, regardless of party affiliations, the candidates best fitted for the offices. } But tho value of the Jeague’s work will depen¢ wholly upon the spirit in which it is carried out; upon the thoroughness and impartiality of its in- vestigations and recommendations. In order to gain the confidence of the voters it must convince them that the directing forces of the league have no motive but the public welfare. The least taint of class distinction or interest bias would be fatal to the leazue’s influence. The organization of the league and kindred bodies having for their objects the improvement of the city and the concentration of the votes of. ggod citizens upon the best qualified candi- dates is a gratifying sign of the progress of local public sentiment for good government. The movement is the more satisfactory because it embraces men of great wealth and influence jn business circles, because too long have men of this kind been either indifferent tg the duties of citizenship or have taken an interest in politics for selfish purposes. If they divest themselyes of all senge of interest except the public interest and join with their fellow citizens to set aside per- sonal and partisan considerations for the advance- ment of honest and_ efficient municipal govern- ment, they will add a powerful factor to the forces struggling for reform. a the original advocate in St. Louis of inde- pendence in politics and especially of nonpartisan- ship in municipal elections, the Post-Dispatch} The work of an independent newspaper must be’ conducted outside of all organizations. It must be free to judge, criticize or commend any or- ganization, but its labors for good are greatly strengthened by organized support and co-opera- tion on the part of citizens. The concentration of all independent elements upon the best candi- dates and the best measures will go far to realize the best ideals for St. Louis. a Le. wT The Jefferson monument on the World’s Fair site should be a “go’’ The remainder of the funds in the hands of the Exposition officers could not be put to a better use. ° ==" i a A THE TERRIFIC STRAIN. In his message instructing Congress how it ought to regulate farmers and their wives, Presi- dent Roosevelt was never more temperamental than in his definition of the “prime function” of the farmer’s wife as that of “raising a sufficient number of healthy children,” not only to supply the farm, but also the cities with fresh blood in a sufficient number of men of clean bodies and clear brains who can endure the terrific strain of modern life.” If the farmer’s wife fails in this, the President tells Congress that “she is not entitled to our regard.” As the surplus from barnyard products mar- keted annually by farmers’ wives in Missouri in- creases almost as fast as the deficit in revenues: from high taxes under the Roosevelt administra- tion, the farmers’ wives may be entitled to our re- gard in this respect, while they use their judg- ment in others. Of course, the cities need their best products. As for the “terrific strain of modern life’ in Washington, or any other city, they can afford to overlook it while they are managing the finan- cial end of the barnyard. As a strain, it is not only ohee now, but destined to become much more so for everyone who attempts to take charge of everybody else and everybody else’s business. The temperamental person~in the modern con- solidated and aggregated greatest circus on earth who insists on being the Whole Show all at once and all the time is subject all at once and all the time to a strain too terrific for modern times or any other. And as times grow more modern, the strain will grow more terrific. — SS * rT

Ingersoll would turn over in his grave (if he hadn‘t been cremated) at this tremendous twentieth century crusade against whisky. One of the most eloquent of all the Inger- soll outbursts was a tribute to a bottle of whisky. Ardent spirits were the only spirits in which Robert ever had any faith. D. P., Getting to Shaw's Garden. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch, ' Shaw's Garden’ would be visited by more people if there were better street car facilities.

G.\ V. _ a Election “of Senators. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. If we had a direct primary law like the Oregon law in all the states we would not have such busi- ness as ts now going on over in Illinois, where they are trying to elect a United States Senator... The Oregon law takes the nomination of candidates out of the hands of schemers, corrupt politicians and legislators and only the corruptionists would and are opposing it. More time is wasted by a Legisla- ture electing a United States Senator than is taken to legislate for the people’s interest, ten times over. Let Missouri take the lead as she hag done in al! great questions, and pass and improve on this law. H. SYCAMORE. Rabbi Harrison for Mayor. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. Gov. Hadley says he does not want to appoint of- fice-seekers. Don’t you think it’s about time that St. Louis took this view of it? We have all kinds of candidates—good, bad and indifferent—seeking the office of Mayor. Some of them are all right, perhaps, but it appears to me there must be “a nigger in the woodpile’’ when men employ campaign managers, press agents and ward clubs to boost their candidacy for a nomination. We want a 100-point man for that high office. and I ask you, honest, progressive and patrfotic citizens, what think you of Rabbi Harri- son’s fitness? Who'll second the motion to nominate him? JAMES McC. Encroaching on Newstead Avenue. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. In view of the fact that the United Railways Co. refuses to abide by the law in regard to paying its Share of the revenue for the use of the streets, something a poor ash wagon man cannot escape, it seems strange to a man not on the inside that this same United Railways Co. can take possession of streets and sidewalks the way it has on Newstead avenue, between West Belle and Finney. It has taken down the fence that formerly inclosed its yards and laid six tracks across the sidewalk and into the middle of Newstead avenue, thus extending its yards into Newstead avenue, making the west side of Newstead avenue a part of the yards. The people cannot use this side of the street now at all; the sidewalk is taken up and cars running in and out of the yards where the people must cross the street to get around the tracks.

IN BUSINESS WITH STANDARD. From the New York World. The proposal of the Standard Oil to the State of Missouri that it join the trust as a business partner is a gen- erous concession to popular prejudice. But is it right that any innocent young Commonwealth should be exposed to the temptation of being admitted tO a share of the Standard’s 45 per cent dividends? If the plan is accepted in Missouri, no doubt New Jersey will soon be invited tv go into partnership with the Stand- ard Oil of New Jersey, Indiana with the Standard Oil of Indiana, Pennsylvania with the Standard’s pipe lines in Penn- sylvania, Oklahoma with the Standard’s subsidiary companies in Gov. Haskell’s State, and Texas with the Standard corporations in that part of the Union. Instead of being hounded from court to court, by perniciously active State at- torneys, the Standard will make a dli- rect connection between its tanks aend the State treasuries, nobody will have to pay any taxes and everybody will be happy and prosperous at the Standard’s expense. But of course if the Standard Oil turns over a share in its business and prouts to the various states on this philan- thropic trusteeship, as a matter of sim- ple gratitude it will be only fair for the states to turn over to the Standard Oil a due share in their government. It might be that in one State it would pre- fer to have the Governor, in another the courts or in a third the Attorney- General and the Legislature. This, as Mr. Rockefeller once re- marked about the Standard’s general undertakings, is a hazardous business.

ATTEMPT TO DEMORALIZE THE CENSUS. The President’s veto of the Crumpacker census bill is in the interest of clean politics, good ad- ministration and an accurate census. About 4000 clerks are to be appointed for the census of 1910. This bill provides that they shall be appointed subject to non-competitive examina- tion. It is further provided that these clerks shall be appointed without regard to politics; that is, the appointments shall be referred to Congressmen, Republican and Democratic alike. This is in effect a bi-partisan spoils scheme. Re- publican Congressmen dare not give all the: ap- pointments to applicants of their party. Public opinion has grown beycnd that. But they expect to seduce Democratic Congressmen to vote for the scheme by allowing them their share of the spoils. | It is an impudent improvement of the old spoil: system which tae President vetoes, and we muy hope that the friends of good administration are numerous enough in Congress to austain the veto.

The Difficult Art of Getting. (From The World’s Work, Copyrighted by Continued From the Post-Dispatch of Yesterday. Borrowing From Father. TALKED the matter over with my | father, who told me that he had al- ways intended to give $1000 to each of his children when they reached 21. He said that if I wished to receive my share at once, instead of waiting, he would advance it to me and I could pay interest upon the sum until I was 21. “But, John,” he added, “the rate is - 10,” At that time 10 per cent a year in- tefest was a very common rate for such | loans. At.the banks the rate might not have been quite so high; but of course the financial institutions could not sup- ply all the demands, 80 there was much private borrowing, at high figures. As I needed this money for the partner- ship, I gladly accepted my father’s offer, and so began business as the junior partner of the new firm, which was called Clark & Rockefeller. It was a great thing to be my own employer. Mentally I swelled with pride —a partner in a firm with $4000 capital! Mr. Clark attended to the buying and selling, and I took charge of the finance and the books. We at once began te do a large busiPess, dealing in carload lots and cargoes of produce. Naturally we soon needed more money to take care of the increasing trade. There was nothing to do but to attempt to borrow from a bank. But would the bank lend to us? The First Loan. WENT to a bank president whem | I knew, and. who knew me. I re- member perfectly how anxious I was’ to get that loan and to establish myself favorably with the banker. This gentleman was T. P. Handy, a sweet and gentle old man, well known as a} high-grade, beautiful character. For 60 years he was interested in young men. He knew me as a boy in the Cleveland schools, I gave him all the particulars of our. business, telling him frankly about ouyR affairs—what we wanted to use the money for, etc., etc. I waited for the verdict with almost trembling eagerness. “How much do you want?” he said. “Two thousand dollars.”’ “All right, Mr. Rockefeller, you can have it,’’ he replied. ‘‘Just give me your own Warehouse receipts; they’re good enough for me.’’ As I left that bank my elation can hardly be imagined. I held up my head —think of it, a bank had trusted me for $2000! I felt that I was now a man of importance in the community. « For long years after the head of this bank was a friend indeed; he loaned me money When I needed it, and I neoded it "® almost all the time and all the money ® he had. It was a source of gratifica- 4 | tion that later I was able to go to him and recommend that he should make a %) certain investment in Standard Oil stock. "i He agreed that he would like to do so, but he said that the sum involved was not at the moment available, and so at my suggestion I turned banker for him, and in the end he took out his principal with a very handsome profit. It is a pleasure to testify even at this late date to his great kindness and faith in me. Sticking to Business Principals. VR. HANDY trusted me because he belleved we would conduct our young business on conservative and proper lines, and I well remember about this time an example of how hard it fs sometimes to live up to what one Knows is the right business principle.

We, of course, wished ‘to oblige this important man, but I, as the finan- ay cial member of the firm , objected, \ though I feared we should lose his mi The situation seemed very serious; my partner was impatient with me for refusing. to yield, and in this dilemma I decided to go personally to see if I could not induce our customer to relent.

FANS OF TODAY LIKE BALL GAME _ WITH FEW RUNS Old-Time Enthusiast Wanted Many Scores, but Such a Contest Now Is Declared “Rotten.”

BY JAMES CRUSINBERRY. W ® still hear a clamor from scattered baseball fans that the game needs thore batting. They say we should chenge the rules so the pitcher wouldn’t have so much power. They claim that the decline in hitting during the past five or six years has deprived tle game of its principal feature. But those same scattered fans will join in with the throng next summer and sit thrilled with intense excitement thrrough some li-inning pitchers’ battle be- fore either team scores, and then leave the grounds declaring it ‘“‘the greatest ‘@ame they ever saw.” ‘The baseball fan who delights in one of those batting festivals that are bound to occur even in the best drilted teams, is not educatéd to the great American game. He must have spent his early days in the back woods and seen only school boys at play, for his conception of a “great game” is indeed childish. The live fan, from New York to San rd, Francisco, is the one who will face the gun in a July bleacher from 3 o’clock wntil 7 while two pitchers struggle in- ‘ning after inning and not a single run- - fer gets across the home plate. That fan who will forget his wife, children and supper in the intensity of the con- test on the field before him, is the fan who knows baseball in all ita finer points. In the days of ’@, and that’s going ‘back some, there were ball games where ‘one team would score as many as 100 runs in nine innings. Scores such as 8 to 67 were common. If a@ team failed to score more than 20 runs it was

thought something very unusual was the matter. How tiring it must have been to the spectators to see the runners scamper around the bases. How long the game must have been and it’s probably safe to say there wasn’t half the demon- stration made over a team’s scoring 100 runs then as there is now when a team scores one, for in these days, that one run often means victory. A game that isn’t a struggle, isn’t considered of much worth in modern times. It is not an uncommon sight to see enthusiastic fans leave the ball park after the first few innings, if one team starts a batting rally and takes the lead by five or six runs. But a fel- low that’s a “real’’ fan would have to be. told his house was on’ fire and his children all burned before he would leave one of those pitchers’ battles where néither side had scored at the end of nine innings and probably not more than a half dozen base hits had been made by both teams combined. Batting Rally at the Proper 2 Time Is Always Most Exciting nine. Batting will always hold its ; important place in the game for that is the way the majority of the Bames are won. But a game full of batting is not one-half as exciting as a no-hit game. - The fans of St. Louis will rememiber for years and years, a bit of batting in & game at Sportsman’s Park last sum- mer. That was one time when batting was the feature because it came at the 4 ier time after the Browns were ap- A HIT at the proper time fs worth nea parer tly beaten, and it turned defeat ~ §nto victory. The game referred to was the Sunday _@ontest with Boston during the series of August. It was the day that Hobe Ferris knocked a home run with the Dases full in the eighth inning and ‘Rube Waddell followed with another ‘homer a few moments later in the same inning when two men were on the bases. The Browns scored eight runs in that one inning and defeated the Boston club 8 to 2, the team that was the hoodoo of McAleer during the en- tire year. Old fans who have seen games in this city for 2% years say there never Was such a demonstration by the crowd as took place at that time. It was

minutes and minutes before the game could proceed and it was days and days before that game was dropped as the principal topic of conversation on every corner, But the excitement of that rally was infense because until then the Boston pitcher, Cy Morgan, had been handling the St. Louis batters at his own mercy and the thousands of Sunday fans wefe sitting in eager expectancy that some- thing would happen. What happened was so far above their expectancy that it overcame them with emotion and there followed such a demonstration as is seldom seen on the ball field. The public has become critical on baseball since the days of ‘69 or it might be said since the days of ’99. Fans want to see a pnattie. If the bat- ters begin hitting a pitcher, they call to “take him out.’’ They don’t want batting unless it is for the home team. Then if the home’ team does get away in the lead, the fan settles back in com- fort to watch the remainder.of the con- test but his interest is gone. Every fan wants the home team to win but the game that he loves is where it wins in the last half of the ninth inning by a score of 1 to 0. —

Pulliam announced his intention of “spoiling” the promise, as it was ille- gal. Chance now declares that, as far as he knows, Murphy never made any such promise, which promises still further to complicate the éxisting difficulty.

WHEN HE STOPS “AIGK™ ON GAS C. L. Holman, who has been secretary of the Laclede Gas Light Co. for several years, has been elected vice-president by the directors. No president was elect- ed to succeed John I. Beggs, but Mr. Holman, as ranking officer, will have full charge of the company’s affairs. Mr. Holman has been practically in charge of the company for several years, although Mr. Beggs was president. Mr. Beggs was here only for a few days each month, and Mr. Holman was re- quired to manage the company. ‘ The success of Mr. Holman in keeping down complaints from the 200,000 gas consumers in St. Louis is largely re- sponsible for his promotion. While the 20,000 consumers of electric light were diggatised with rates and conditions of service and complained bitterly of the management, Mr. Holman is said _ to have succeeded in conducting the affairs of the company in such a manner as to eliminate complaints of the kind that beset the electric company. The directors of the Union Electric TAght and Power Co. did thot elect a president and general manager. H. C. Spoehrer was re-elected secretary and treasurer. Mr. Holman succeeds August Gehner as vice-president of the gas company. W. 8. Dodd was elected secretary and treasurer, E. D. Pray of New York, as- sistant treasurer, and H. F. Kroyer, also of New York, assistant secretary. P. E. Biesland of New York was elected vice-president.

Ord- way has figured in another marriage, his first wife, whom he married Jan. 25, 1876, dying many. years before he married the present Mrs. Ordway, who was Miss Luella Berry, Sept. 26, 189. After three children had been born to them, Mrs. Luella Ordway obtained a divorce, and on April 22, 190, they were married a second time, living together until a year ago, when Mrs. Ordway was freed by the courts, for a second time pleading gross neglect of duty on Ordway’'s part. Recently the Ordways .decided their separation was a mistake and the mar- riage today, performed by the Rev. T. F. Hildreth, was the result. With their three children they will leave this city, which has been the scene of their do- mestic trouble, and make their home on VANDERBILT MUST QUIT AUTO BOSTON, Feb. 11.—Harold Vanderbilt cannot again operate an automobile in Massachusetts until the Highway Com- mi8sion sees fit to give him that privi- lege. His operator's license was fre- voked because he ran his machine on Causeway street at a reckless speed and had no lights on hig car. To the second offense he pleaded guilty and paid a fine of $100 as a penalty a week ago. Vanderbilt has been in court seven times to answer charges of automobile violations since he entered Harvard two years ago.

BRYAN ARRIVES. UNNOTICED AT UNION STATION In St. Louis to Deliver Relig- ious Lecture, Is Welcomed by Two Persons.: A TALKS OF LIBEL SUIT

Reiterates Statement That.Pro- ceeding Against New York World Is “Outrage.”

Alone and almost unnoticed, William Jennings Bryan alighted Thursday morning .at 7:56 o’clock frem a train at the Union Station. He had come from Montgomery, Ala. He _ will lecture Thursday night in the Odeon, on “The Prince of s« eace.’ The only persons who met him were his cousin, Dr. M. Dwight Jennings of 4110 Washington boulevard, and a news- paper man. As he walked through the crowds at the Union Station going to a street car no on® accosted him. He went to spend the day at ‘nis cousin’s home. Mr. Bryan denied that he was in®an automobile accident at Tampa, Fla., Jast Saturday. “The only truth abgut that story was that I did take an automobile ride,” he said. ‘‘The machine did nof collide with a post or with anything. The trip was without incident, there was no accident and my leg was not hurt. I cannot account for how that absurd stary got out.’’ Mr. Bryan was asked for his opinion about the Japanese crisis in California. He said: ““T have a decided opinion on the Japanese question but I do not wish to express it at this time. I do not wish to talk off hand about such an import- ant matter, such a delicate matter. In the near future I shall either dictate ah interview or publish in my paper my views on the Japanese question. He refused/’to say anything about the divorce suft of his daughter, Mrs, Ruth Bryan Leavitt. He said that was pure- ly a family affair in which the public ought not to be interested, Asked about the Roosevelt proceedings against the New York World he said: ‘“T have already expressed my opinion fully on that subject. I think the Fed- eral Government is voverstepping its bounds in its attempt to discipline the press. I think the whole proceeding is an outrage.”’ Concerning the predicament of Philan- der Chase Knox Mr. Bryan said: e “T know nothing of that matter ex- cept what I have read in the newspa- pers. But so far as I know from that source it looks like they have Senator Knox in a tight place.” Mr. Bryan said he would be at the home of his cousin all day and that the atch string would be on tne outside for his friends. At 7:30 p. m. Thursday there will be a reception to Mr. Bryan at the Jeffer- son Club. At 8 p. m. his lecture in tke Odeon will begin. At 11:30 p. m. Mr. Bryan will leave for Springfield, IIl., where he will talte part Friday in the Lincoln exercises. BOT $5 FOR QUART OF BLOOD, MUST PAY $10 DOCTOR'S BILL Volunteer for Transfusion Operation Also Loses Two Weeks’ Pay of $24. YOUNGSTOWN, 0O., Feb. 11.—Volun- teers who offered their blood in re- sponse to an advertisement by surgeons promising a reward are up in arms against the surgeons. From the group of 20 volunteers who offered their blood to save the life of Tony Triolla, Youngs- town’s strong man, whose only hope of life lay in a transfutation operation, Leonard Marsh, 18 years old, was Se- lected. The operation yesterday failed of success. — Marsh is in bed, after having lost a quart of blood. He is to stay in bed two “weeks, physicians say. He must pay a physician's bill of something under $10 and lose two weeks of his time, for which he was receiving $12 a week. The durgeons paid him $6 for the quart of blood. Other volunteers, from. the list of whom surgeons have endeavored to se- lect another sacrifice for the necessary second operation to save Triolla, balked today. Not one of the 19 would renew his offer. ‘Too much of a 1o0ss, . gained for our time, let alone the risk, they answered.
