THE NEW NATIONAL BANK NOTES. From the Philadelphia Inquirer. It was the general impression when the most recent currency law was enacted that the special issue of national bank notes for which it provided was to be reserved exclusively for times of stress. This was a misapprehension. All notes, whether issued on the basis of government bonds or on the other securities now authorized by law, are to be of the same character, and as soon as possible the old notes are to be displaced by the new ones, which have been printed to the value of $600,000,000. These bear the words ‘and other securities’’ in addition to the usual inscription, but whether they have been put out with government bonds or with other securities as the collateral the bearer is not apprised. Had the emergency notes borne the earmarks of their origin they might have been subjected to a discrimination which is avoided by the course pursued. By the same law under which these notes, of which some $80,000,000 are now in circulation, are issued it was.provided that banks might form currency associ- ations and that the members of such associations might emit currency to a limited extent on cqommer- cial paper. Very soon after the enactment of the law, May 30, 1908, the question was raised whether any bank of a number forming such an association might retire from it at its pleasure at any time after the obligations of the association had been dis- charged. The Secretary of the Treasury decided this point in the negative, with the result that the banks almost universally abandoned the idea of forming into associations contemplated until such time as Congress should amend the law in reversal of the Secretary's rulings. It is said that the only curren- cy association in existence ig one that has been formed in the city of Washington.

MUSIC WITH MEALS. From the New York Times. The half dozen women who on Sunday night in- vaded a Pittsburg restaurant, in which meals are served to the accompaniment of’ violins and zithers, and sang a few Salvation Army hymns, accomplished more than they intended. The diners departed in good order, but that exodus was not in the singers’ program, Of course the waiters remained to hear ‘Where Is My Wandering Boy Tonight?’ and ‘“‘Throw Out the Life Line,” but waiters are callous. Failing as musical evangelists, though, these intrepid women may yet be remembered as reformers.

WHY IS NEVADA? From the Louisville Courier-Journal. The total vote of Nevada in 1908 was 2,267; its total population has shewn a steady decrease since 1870 and does not today much exceed 130,000 according to the estimate of its Governor, while the census re- turns do not give it within 99,000 of that figure. ertheless its fantastic proceedings might seriously complicate international relations, in view of the fact that outside nations cannot be expected to dis- eriminate between hot-headed and ill-regulated Ne-]. vadans and the generosity of the population of.the United States.

A BAR TO MATRIMONY. From the New York Herald. Oregon’s Senate has passed—and it is expected to become a law—a bill restricting marriage in that State to persons who are certified by physicians to bo in good health. Of course, physical health must be meant. It might be prohibitory to require a test of the mental condition of a prospective bridegroom.

He ought to be Jackson’s companion in the Hall of Fame.

Hadley had just issued his order that mem- bers of his staff must ride @ miles in three consecu- tive days before going to the Taft inaugural. “The President made it 90 miles in his army order,’’ gomeone recalled. “I know,” the Governor answered, ‘but 60 miles over the kind of roads we have in Missouri are easily equivalent to 90 miles anywhere else.” 1920.

Says, but More Is to Be Done. Missouri should have a commission or board to regulate charges of all mo nopolies, whether they are natural mo- nopolies, by right of franchise, or com- binations of capital and thereby mo- nopolies by might, in the opinion of Gov. Hadley. The Governor expiained his ideas in reply to a request by a Post-Dispatch reporter in view of the recent proposi- tion submitted to the Supreme Court by the Standard Oil Co. ror a state super- vision of its business. The Governor was positive in the be- lief that the State has a right to con- trol the prices charged by any monop- oly which sells to the public. “While the question has not been for- mally passed on by the courts,’”’ he said, “IT am satisfied it is the right of the State to regulate the charges and the conduct of any business which is a monopoly. And I do not think it is of determining importance whether the monopoly is a natural one, by public franchise, or is the result of a ¢combi- nation or trust. “Assuming this power of regulation to exist, I intend sending to the General] Assembly in the near future a special message urging that laws be passed iving to representatives of the State the discretionary power to institute pro- ceedings for the purpose of regulating the chargeg and the conduct of a busi- ness which is in effect a monopoly, or to proceed in the courts to punish and suppress it. Wants Legislature to Act, “Such a law offering such discretion exists in other states and while it has not had a sufficient trial to justify any final conclusions concerning its effec- tiveness and advisability, I feel justified, by reason of actual experience, in bring- ing this matter before the Legislature for investigation and consideration. “The details of the plan have not been fully worked out, and I am not pre- pared to say whether I think the State should create a commission to handle the matter or whether the power should be delegated to certain State officers.”’ Before giving his views on the regu- lation of the charges and business of all monopolies, the Governor explained in detall his ideas of the proper relations between the State and business inter- ests. He said: “Conservation {s a necessity in the consideration and enactment of legisla- tion affecting business interests. While it is both the right and the duty of the State to regulate public service cor- porations in such a way as to obtain fair rates and a proper service for the people, such laws should not be enacted merely because the power exists to pass and to enforce them. Rights Must Be Respected, “And the right of business enterprises to be free from the burden and the ex- pense of State regulation and control should be recognized and respected, un- less the conditions therein clearly Jus- tify the State in supervision and regu- lation. And it is never fair or advisa- ble to exercise this right unless it is reasonably certain that the act of regu- lation will not deprive the owners of the property of a reasonable return on the value of their investment. # “This attitude of the State toward in- dustrial combinations and trusts is question concerning which there exist a marked difference of opinion, and its proper solution is of the highest import- ance to the business world, as well as to the general public. “The principal difficulty that arises in: connection with this problem is that 4% there exists today, as there always has existed, to a greater or less degree, a conflict between the ‘rules of business and the laws of men,” It is the common law, as well as the statute law of this State, and of practically all of the States of the Union, that any com- bination or agreement which limits or tends to limit free an? mrestricted com- petition is not only illegal in the sense that it is unenforcable, but it is also unlawful in that it wit) subject the parties making it to both civi! and crim- inal punishment. The Law vs. the Business. “The business world régards free and unrestricted competition as a misf6r- tune and an evil, while the law de- nounces any agreement that tends to prevent it as a crime. Therefore, when inen enter into a combination Or a trust in restraint of competition anq trade, and the law interposes to prevent or to punish those guilty of such an offense the necessary judgment of the Court oftentimes seems harsh in its severity and unfortunate in its effect on general ‘business conditions. “The men, however, who violate the law in this manner are entitled to no more consideration or sympathy than the ordinary offender against our crim- inal statutes. Their offense is prompted solely by a desire for unlawful gain, and they can plead as an excuse or justifica- tion neither their ignorance nor their rrecessilies. And when men, by combina- tions and organization, have obtained for themselves the power to say and do say, to the producer on the one hand, how little he shall receive for his raw material, and to the consumer, on the other hand, how much he must pay for

n the Anished product, they have thereby ss e ghee gh soothes ae dae —. Fh he ee

Much Has Been Achieved, He | 7 ence of such a power gives us on the one hand a master, and, on the other, its necessary Corollary, a slave. Much Achieved, Much Lacking. - “A somewhat active and extensive experience in. the investigation of this subject has failed to convince me that we have provided a method for dealing with such conditions that is advisable and applicable to ah cases. I feel that much has been accomplished, both by the national’ government and..by the several states, through civil and criminal prosecutions, in restricting the power of monopoly and maintaining for the people the benefits of competition in trade. And in this work I feel that I ean fairly say that Missouri has done her part. : “But the somewhat cumbersome pro- cess Of the law, the delays necessarily incident to important litigation, the tech-

After ~The Model’s Secret A STORY FOR FAT FOLKS The Cloak Models’ Association has raised their calling to the status of a fine art. The development and retention of a perfect figure is made the study of their lives. As a result they receive high salaries and, of course, live correspondingly well, But good living and a perfect figure are seldom contemporaneous in the same lady. They are so only when that lady is willing to pay for her good times by most strenuous and persistent physical effort to keep her fat down. 8o the premier models, some of whom are middle-aged, have had te fight a good fight hitherto, Hitherto is used advisedly, for now the struggle is less keen. Instead of dieting and exercise being their reliance, the fol- lowing mixture is asked to do the work of keeping these ladies professionally fit: One- half ounce Marmola, % ounce Fluid Extract Cascara Aromatic, and 3% ounces of Pepper- mint Water. This is taken a teaspoonful after ‘meals and at bedtime; and reports indicate it does not violate the trust put in it. Those with a tendency to fatten up keep their figures stationary by its means, while many find- ing themselves overfat have lost as much a5 a pound a day by its use.—ADYV. took place at St. .Cronan’s

Model A, “Maxwell Jr.,’”’ 10 horse-power; D A, 30 horse-power touring car; L I? 4 horse-power runabout, and H D, 2 horse-power touring car. Models L D and H D are equipped with the famous and most highly reliable and successful Maxwell two-cylinder engine. The engine and transmission on all Maxwell cars are built together in one unit. This is recognized by the leading manufacturers as the strongest possi- ble construction, with the, weight. re- duced to the minimum. The power plant is supported at three points, re- moving the possibility of its being strained, no matter how the running gear is twisted and abused by rough handling over bad roads. The cooling system on al] Maxwell cars is accom- plished by. natural circulation of the water, doing away with the pump and all complicating piping. This cooling system is automatic in action and the manufacturers claim that it is thereby more efficient. Last December the Maxwell Briscoe Moter Company established a branch heuse in this city at 5123 Delmar boule- vard, with J. IL Handley, one of their western sales managers, as president; Valentine Heinrich, vice-president; L. L. Milks, treasurer and manager; H. M. Paine, secretary and salesman. f the new 41800

AUTO MAKING NOW FAR PAST “GAME” PERIOD

If a man wants to make a poor im- pression on Henry Ford, president of the Ford Motor Co., he has only to re- fer to the making and selling of auto- mobiles as a “game,’’ and Mr. Ford has inculcated this ‘dea into the minds of every employe from Seattle to Paris. “It jsn’t a game—it’s an industry that is rapidly assuming the leading place among the industries of “the world. In the United States it represents an in- vestment of $200,000,000, gives employ- ment to about 125,000 men and pays them the highest wages of any manufactur- ing interest. There are 243 separate con- cerns engaged in the production of cars in this country and about 500 separate trades involved. The output for 1909 will be from 75,000 to 100,000 cars. “It isn’t a game for it fills a business need in that with the automobile, all kinds of business is carried on with greater ease. Manufacturing, selling, professions, every business’ interest has felt the beneficial influence of the ,automobile industry. — It has meant milHons of dollars on good roadg, and every dollar so spent has been re- turned tenfold by the increase in farm: values and the savings in rural trans- portations. “Calling it a ‘game’ has hurt the in- dustry—is hurting it today. Associating it with sports has removed it, partially at least, from its rightful sphere—has prejudiced opinion against it. The auto- mobile isn’t a wild demon-like vehicle that goes seeking whom it may destroy, though some buyers have by their ac- tions—which should have landed them in jail—ient support to that opinion. “When automobile manufacturers, dealers and salesmen. generally drop

LiSeUM e rs - the term ‘game’—when newspapers re- move it from the sporting columns to the business section of their paper and when the people generally transfer their opinion from ‘game’ to ‘national in- dustry,’ the automobile industry will grow and spread as it never has be- fore, for it is a ‘safe and sane’ in- dustry that has come to stay. It satis- fies an economic requirement.” FIRESTONE AMONG THE FIRST IN INDUSTRY Among those who have been suc- cessful, no one individual has actu- ally produced more for the benefit of the industry than H. §S. Firestone, ‘founder of the Firestone Tire and Rubber Co. He was among the first to use and aid in the development of solid rubber.tires for cafriages. His success in that line and the various tmprovements he has brought out in tires for commercial vehicles is known to the’ world. As a sequence his time and thought have been devoted to the improve- ment of pneumatic tires to meet the demands of more recent years. To accomplish this he hag surrounded himself with experts in each particu- lar department of manufacture, and has welded an organization in which each man is master of the particular duty he has to discharge. The activities of each man in this organization, including Mr. Firestona himself, are confined to the tire busi- ness alone, no other issue being per- mitted to divide their attention; the entire organization working always, not to produce sensational] results, but to master the fine points in manufac- ture that mark the difference between Success and failure. With such an organization, young, actfve and unen- cumbered, striving always toward one goal, the result is inevitable, —_———o—_—___.

Fisk Removable Rim. It was up to the Fisk Rubber Com- pany, one of America’s oldest and most promient tire makers, to demonstrate its progressive spirit by producing one of the first thoroughly tried-out and perfected removable rims. No at- tempt was made to duplicate the Euro- pean system. The supreme desire of the Fisk Company wag to produce a remoy- able rim whose value was not endan- gered by the false rim. Experiments had been begun before the French noy- éity had passed the useful stage. Ob- servations were made abroad and a crops of skilled and Special mechanics were testing the result o at the Fisk factory. a oo At last the triumph came.

r=. FF Long to Be Remembered Experience - Gives City Men New Idea of Value of Cars as Hunting Aid.

BY MONTGOMERY HALLOWELL. == y* : | A . - . ? ° RE you one of those blase motorists? Have you used up every charming stretch of road within the week-end radius of your town? exhausted ali the thrills that the first two or three years of automobile Have - you ownership kept shooting into your system? Are you in that just-waiting mood ef an airship? . Then get happy, for here’s a new one. Here’ a trick that will revive every old ond of your early days of motoring. Here's a chance to remodel, revamp and _Wefurnish throughout everyone of those merry old forgotten. thrills. | “Roughing it’’-that’s the answer. * This story wouldn't do at all if it hadn't really happened. So it goes, with names, dates and places. . Seven of us—Maj. Foster, Page, Fitch, ‘Ayers, Chalmers,- Dowling and myself— ‘Were at luncheon. The day was the first “Friday in Decémber, last December—1908, to be exact. And the place, since you ansist, was-the Hoffman House, New York City.’ I don't know how it started, and any- how, it makes no difference, but before the coffee got to us we had begun to teil hunting yarns. And every man in the party began to feel that crazy long- ing that no city-bound, asphalt-weary Dbusitiess-burdened warkingman ought to until vacation time—that longing r the woods and the wild things. ‘The Thrill of the Motor, Motor fiends, every one of us, we be- gan to tingle and thrill with that riot- jus, blood-stirring “‘call of the wild” that. means guns and dogs and camp- fires. You know, or if you don’t, I’m sorry for you. That feeling has no more to do with motor cars than a rabbit. That is, it never had, up to that time, for any of us. But it does now. That's the story. belnea who sprung tbe idea. , “Getting there and getting back is What kills hunting for us chaps.” Page had just said: “Here it is Fri- @ay noon. From now until Monday morning we could all be out shooting except for one thing—there wouldn't be any shooting. It would be al] trav- éling—ont and back again.” , * The Major carefully put away what was left of his coffee and as carefully Set down the cup. We didn't seem to have.e thing on his mind. | “Well.” he said casually, you know, just as if it were nothing at all, “we might do the triek with & car.” , | What the rest of us said I don’t} Anyhow,.it makes..no differ-. fnow. nee, Whatever it was we all said ht at once. | { By Night 150 Miles From City. The next five minutes developed a ot of things. The Major knew a place fomewhere back of Lakewood where, by starting that night and allowing ‘Six hours for sleep,. we could be on e birds by 7:30 the next. morning. Break suggested making it a camping trip and offered to supply a complete guto camping equipment, from tents, ir mattresses, sleeping bags and folding stove. down to teaspoons with fpod and every other accessory, all to Be so completely folded and stowed Ma to leave ali seats free to carry us, with three guests and a guide.

They'll need to. be, And Fitch, be sure to have a couple of axes. We may have to chop down some trees to get the cars through.” This sounded good to me—only a was glad they weren't my cars. In two cars, loaded to the: gunwales with Fitch’s marvelous outfit. that seemed to be made and packed s0 a8 to go just right on every available car- rying space outside the cars, 10 of us left Columbus Circle at 8 o’clock. In the Heart of the Bird Country. At 1 o’clock we were at the little hotel, an hour beyond Lakewood. I'd like to tell about the fun of that run. But it was just a case of good roads, g0od cars, a beautiful night and speed. Just a regular motor ride, and this isn’t that kind of a story, and, arpyhow, it makes no difference. Next morning the real fun started. With Capt. Jenks, our guide, in the leading: car, it took those blessed cars just -i5 minutes to land us in the very heart of the bird country. Over deep sandy roads an@ through the timber— thé cars never turned a hair. To have walked it would have taken over an hour. Who says that motoring isn't the real way for busy folks to go a- hunting? We had only two days, and the cars were saving every minute for us for sport. 3 : Then came another novelty to some of us—Fitch’s camping layout. To see the Major and Fitch and Dowling trans- form the rolls of plunder that had been strapped to the running boards into a complete camp in less than ten minutes was better than any mere fire drill I ever saw. Camp an Ideal Home. Nothing needed to live, move and have your being out of doors was missing; and everything was made to fit into ev- erything else, so that not an inch of space was lost in packing. By the time the rest of us had guns out of gun cases and had completed plans for shooting, the camp was ready. I started out to:tell about “rough- ing it’’ and not about the shooting it;, self; but right here I want to remark} that, “when it comes to birds, that strip of Jersey woods is good enough for me. When we got back to camp at noon not one of us had had less than a dozen shots. And that noonday meal! How Broad- way would have stared at it and the way it disappeared. Another lightning transformation act that would make a hit at Hammer- stein’s ended in getting every part and parcel of that camping outfit on the cars inside of fifteen minutes, and we were off for another kind of shooting. ‘*T guess this is bad,’’ said Page. ““Two kinds of shooting the same day. Major, [ would sooner be the father of this new idea of yours than the winner of the Vanderbilt cup.” Getting to the Ducks. Our next destination was to be a cer- tain inlet the Captain knew of on Bar- negat Bay where he guaranteed us some gocd salt-water Yuck shooting. By read,

But the Captain knew of some short cuts that would Save an hour. Page said he was game to try anything with the cars but swim- ming, so we struck out for a short way. That hour was worth saving, and be- sides wasn’t there a chance of some new motoring sensations? We didn’t save all of the hour, but we got the sensations. For a couple of miles we just wound around, picking our way through the woods, with no road in sight. Talk about walking on eggs. That’s nothing. Just try a ride in an expensive car through the trackless woods, with an eight-inch fall of leaves hiding the holes and stumps. Once the “forty,” which was in the lead, got tignt up against it, and sure enough the Major's prediction about the axes proved right. Before the car could make a getaway the Captain had to chop down a couple of small trees. Race on Sand Road. At the edge of the woods we struck a plowed field. and we began to wish the Captain had given us plans and Specifications of his boasted “short cuts.” However, the cars didn’t seem to mind and finally we came out on a road. It was a welcome sight, too—even if it was deep sand. Page knew what his cars would do to that sand, so he opened the throttles for a little speed. “You'll leave that ‘‘thirty’ away be- hind if you don’t hold this car down a bit, won’t you?” asked Avres. “I don’t believe so,’ answered Page, “but I’m going to find out on this trip.”’ The sand didn’t last long and for a wonder we struck a piece of ordinarily The ‘‘thirty’’ was loaded almost pound for pound with the “‘forty,”” and.when Page opened up, ‘on his fourth gpeed, I looked back to AN UNEXPECTED SHOT. : S WITH READY. _ _TO-USE AUTO CAMPING OUTFIT

pert when it is as easy to have as this? We had invented a way to crowd a month's vacation tmto 48 hours; but even we couldn't keep it from getting dark, and soon the fun had to stop. But after all, which is the more fun— the shooting or the pipe and the talk and the loaf ground the camp fire after the day's sport is done? : We found the shore too cold and again thanked our lucky stars for the lightning4dike camp equipment and the cars.

And how unbelievable it seemed as we sat around the fire in the evening, to think that the evening before we had been in the city and that the evening following would find us back in our civilized togs, on asphalt again! How we slept that night! How we hated to crawl out of the warm sleeping, bags Sunday morning, even to eat another of those wonderful out-of-door meals! And how we hated to break camp! But we knew we could: do it again— and then again. That was the compen- sating thought. For we had discovered and demonstrated a new idea—the tab- loid outing for busy sportsmen. The Major, Page and Fitch were our heroes. The Chalmers-Detrdéit cars and the autommobile camp equipment ‘had made it all possibie.

But, ap- parently, to the surprise of even Page himself, the smaller car kept in sight. all the way. After a fairly stiff climb of about a mile we struck the decline leading down to the beach and, after another couple of miles through the | woods we halted at a spot that the Captain had chosen for our camp site for the night. Waiting for Birds, The short winter afternoon was not nearly over and we were in plenty of time to pitch® camp and spread out around the inlet before the ducks would be coming in. For a couple of miles we were strung out along the edges and indentations of the little bay. And pretty soon the guns began to “bang, bang!’’ all over the place. The birds were coming in thick. Everybody was busy and the dogs were beside themselves. Why—will someone tell me?—why stick in the city and vainly wish for

‘DEMOUNTABLE RIM A TIME- SAVER FOR TRUCK DRIVERS The Firestone side-wire tire demount- able rim is being exhibited for the first time this season. It is pronounced by transportation experts as the greatest time-saver yet devised in the matter of changing tires for motor trucks. This is for_use on commercial motor vehicles equipped with any make of side-wire tire, and is formed of four parts: 1. The removable rim on which is situated the endless channel equipped with tire. 2. The side flange, which is bolted through the felloe and is de- tachable. 3. The removable ring hav- ing a triangular-shaped cross section, which, When in position, rests between the removable rim and the fourth part, the fixed base on the wood felloe. By equipping wheels with the Firestone side-wire tire demountable rim and car- rying an extra rim, commercial vehicle operators reduce to a minimum the time and effort required !n changing tires, and make it possible to substitute a new tire at any point on the road. In removing the tire the side flange is removed, the locking ring falls off and the removable portion of the rim may be slid off with ease. The extra rim, with its tire already in place, may be adjusted merely by reversing the operation. LESSENING LIABILITY OF ANNOYING TIRE BLOWOUTS like

In its natural state rubber, gold, posesses little durability. It is the method of putting durability into it, then, which largely concerns the tire manufacturer, and the problem involves so many features that the work becomes really deeply scientific. ‘Take for example the extremely tough tread of our 1909 construc- tion,” said a Diamond. Tire man. “It means much more than appears upon the surface.” Then he explained how this new tread is made both thicker and tough- er, but without making the rubber stiff or hard. This is a very import- ant consideration and an achievement in the intimate science of rebnet manureet us ne For if the tyeed s stiff or resisting, every shock the we receives is localized, the apt ees fabric yy od and a blowout is alto- ether too ®ly to result. eT he large reduction in the pogo 2 ity of blowouts was one of the. ig ‘things we accomplished last year. he added, “and we claim to have mace a still further advance along ase line in our 1909 construction in @ se tion to having in the tread a a creased resistance to wear &? rasion.” ' PALMER & SINGER BID FOR ST.

S.S.S. curES CATARRH When we say S. S. S. cures Catarrh, we do not mean that it merely checks the symptoms for ashort time. Some local applica- tions will do that by simply cleansing and soothing the irritated mucous membranes, but all the while the cause which produces Catarrh is left in the system, and at the first cold, or disagree- able spell of weather, the trouble returns with afl its annoying symptoms. Catarrh is a blood disease which causes a general inflamma- tion of the inner linings or . mucous membranes of the body. The diseasing of these delicate tissues and surfaces by the continual contact with impure blood Causes irritation and an un- healthy discharge, produc- ing all the well known symptoms of Catarrh, such as mucus dropping back into the throat, buzzing noises in the head and ears, stuffy feeling in the nose, watery eyes, head- aches, slight fever, a gen- eral weakness of the body, impaired health, etc. Even the lungs become affected by the continual passage of impure blood through them if the trouble is allowed to remain in the system. S. S. S. cures Catarrh by cleansing the blood of all the impure catarrhal matter, and at the same time building up the sys- tem by its unequaled tonic effects. It goes into the circulation and attacks the disease at its head and removes every trace of im- . purity that is iGibeing the faa case py dauhter who was gale trouble.

She knew death was near, and a few minutes before it came she held out her hand to her mistress, Mrs. Lambrigger, saying, “Goo boo,” which, translated, means, “Good-hy,’”’ then she closed her eyes to open them no more. At Vinton, Io., some years ago, a dele- gation of bankers arranged a brilliant social function in Miss ‘“‘Tony’s’’ honor, which was attended by exponents of the Darwinian theory and many prominent phrenologists. _ ——aenme x Ee EE ee ON MONDAY, FEB. 15th, THE MISSOURI PACIFIC WILL PUT ON A New Noonday Train MISSOURI ° PACIFIC IRON MOUNTAIN /y SIX DAILY TRAINS IN ALL 2:20 7:25 9:00 12:20 10:10 11:30 AMA MAM.

RECEPTION TO PUBLIC in German and English at Church of ~ Holy Cross. —————— The semi-centennial anniversary of the founding of the Lutheran Hospital at Potomae street and Ohio avenue will be celebrated today with two services at the Church of the Holy Cross, one block away, and a public reception at the hospital both before and after the aft- ernoon service. Fifty years ago today the Lutheran Hospital was founded, and in*half a century it has grown to be one of the best equipped and most efficient institutions of its kind in St. Louis. At 2:30 o’clock this afternoon there will be a special service at the Church of the Holy Cross to commemorate the hospital’s anniversary, and there will be ‘another at 7:30. The afternoon service will be conducted in the German language. The Rev. G. Mezger, 4 pro- fessor in Concordia Seminary, will oc- cupy thé pulpit, and the Rev. R. Kretzschmar, pastor of Emmaus Luth- eran Church, at Jefferson avenue and Armand street, will read a historical sketch of the hospital. At the evening service the Rev. F. W. Herzberger, Lutheran city missionary, will deliver a sermon in English. Mem- bers of all the Lutheran churches and nearby cities and towns will attend the evening meeting and participate in the’ services. The Lutheran Hospital will be open to the publie for inspection during Sunday afternoon, and all who attend the after- noon services will be invited to spend their time at the hospital between the afternoon and evening services. Developments in 50 Years. The institution will be decorated with plants and flowers. All departments will be open to visitors. The handsome and commodious structure now occupy- ing the corner at Potomac street and Ohio avenue is far different from the first Lutheran Hospital. The institution rose from an exceed- ingly modest and sma.. beginning, and those in charge of it are proud ofits de- velopment. It was founded by the Rev. J. F. Buenger, and has in 50 years de- veloped into one of the finest hospitals in the West, second to none in effici- ency. The Rev. Mr. Buenger was a Saxon Lutheran who settled in St. Louis 70 years ago. He was a brother-in-law of Dr. C. F. Walther, one of the widest- known Lutheran theologians in the world. After many ‘years of theught and planning, the Rev. Mr. Buenger got to- gether sufficient funds to make possi- ble his cherished hospital on Dec. 1, 1858, and Feb. 14, 1859, the little institu- tion was opened. \ The hospital was founded and kept up by the German Lutherans then in St. Louis, most of whom were very poor. It was a place where those of Lutheran faith in particular,. but also others, might be cared for wnen sick. Two Rooms First Quarters. Four years before he succeeded, the Rev. Mr. Buenger declared that St. Louis must have a Lutheran Hospital, and he Kept at it until he finally achieved his cherished desire. The Luth- eran Hospital Association was formed in 188 and the Rev. Mr. Buenger was president of it until he died in 1882. The Original hospital was located at Caron- delet avenue and Emmett street, now Broadway and Geyer avenue, in two rooms of the residence of Edward Bert- ram. Me donated the two rooms free of charge when the hospital was found- ed. Bertram was made treasurer of the association. In 1862 the association bought a lot at Potomac street and Missouri avenue, on which to build, but abandoned the project and bought a dwelling at Sev- enth and Sidney streets. Here the hos- pital remained until 1883, when the pres- ent site was acquired. A building was begun in that year, and frem time to time it has been enlarged and improved until the present structure resulted. The Rev. R. Kretschmar is inspector of the hospital and his committee con- sists of Henry Harms, J. H. Triemeyer, H. Schenkel and Theodore Lange. F. Groebel is president of the -board of di- rectors. Drs. H. Schultz, H. Hauser and W. Winter are the house Physicians, Of the 9818 patients treated in the hospital, 4681 were operated upon and 7986 were fully cured.

SUSTAINED COSTS ON MOTHER Evidence in Suit Showed Pupil Had Been Surly and Abusive and Left School. WILKESBARRE, Pa., Feb. 13.—Prof. Wallace F. Ridge, principal of the schools at Centralia, near here, was up- held by both the Judge and jury in flog- ging Edward Michaels, an alleged un- ruly and disobedient pupil. Prof. Ridge had been arrested and prosecuted at the instance of the boy’s mother, Mrs. Daniel Michaels. The evi- dence showed that the boy had been surly and abusive and had left school without permisston. Upon his return Prof. Ridge had made an example of him by calling him before his class and thrashing him with a strap. The judges charged in his fa- vor, the jury acquitting him and plac- ing the costs of the case on the boy's mother.

St RR PER er ro ee eee “TIDAL RIVER” ADVOCATED FOR | PANAMA CANAL |=: ell Noted French Engineer Says Water Construction’ Would Reduce the Cost.

HAD CHARGE OF WORK

Experienced Man Thinks Big Ditch Should Be “Straits of Panama.”

By Leased Wire From the New York ‘Bureau of the Post-Dispatch. NEW YORK, Feb. 14.—M. Bunau-Va- rilla, the French engineer, who has consistently from the beginning stood for the “Straits of Panama,” a sea level canal across the Isthmus, ar- rived this morning on La Province to deliver his address before the Boston Commercial Club on hig “Tidal River.” He said he had heard only inadequate reports of the attempt on the part of President Roosevelt to institute a suit against The World and other news- papers for a libel on the Government, and therefore his information on these points was insufficient for him to form an opinion. M. Bunau-Varilla went first to the Isthmus under the old French regime in a subordinate capacity, then rose to be a divisional engineer, and finally was placed in entire charge of the engineering. “TIT came only for a month’s stay to pay my respects to some of’ my old friends,’’ he said, ‘including President Roosevelt, and to deliver my address before the Boston Commercial Club on Feb. 2. I have also an invitation to speak before an association of mining engineers in New Haven, but the date is so near that of the Boston lecture that I may not be able to keep it.”’ The engineer uses his English with great facility, preserving generally both his French accent and idiom. Water Construction Cheap. He advocated ‘“‘water construction” in building the canal and would have, he said, only temporary locks, say 150 feet long and 10 feet deep, leaving the exca- vated work already there alone, stop- ping further labor upon it and go on with water construction. Water for construction and for dredging, he said, would effect immense economies in time and money, for water as a means for the shifting of material in vessels and for convenience in placing and op- erating dredges was infinitely superior Tto dry excavation. “JT would use a lock canal for the work only,’””’ said M. B@nau-Varilla, “that would be the only way to make the canal in such a short time as 10 years and to complete this giant ex- cavation for the open seaway.”’ The Panama Canal is to be 47 miles in length. He said he would make it 600 feet wide at the bottom instead of 150 feet, and 45 feet deep at the lowest tide. It could then be finished in 10 years aft- er the first lock canal, or temporary lock canal, is made. “Call my proposed Panama Sea Level Canal a ‘tidal river’ or the ‘Straits of Panama,’ as you please. It would take 50 years to build it with dry excava- tion. It would be practically impossi- ble to do it that way.” The difficulty of the current that would be produced by the difference in tides between the Pacific and Atlantic was then propounded to M. Banau- Varilla. “There is no denying the difference between the levels of the Atlantic and the Pacific,”’ he said. ‘On the Atlantic side there are no tides. On the Pa- cific side the tides are 10 feet above and below the level of the other side, mak- ing @ mean difference of 20 feet. The situation is nearly analogous to that of the Thames and the Seine, where the tides rise and lower themselves natu- rally. “What would happen in the case of the ‘tidal river?’ The reproducing of what nature would do to make a level and restore naturally and simply- an equilibrium. There would happen only what exists in many natural rivers. The force of the currents can be calcu- lated with absolute accuracy. If the current at the Pacific end has a speed of 3% knots, which is insignificant, it can be calculated that the rate at the Atlantic end would be 2% knots. Curreat Would Be Slow. “Supposing you have a permanent dif- ference in level,” continued he, “‘and one end is 10 feet above the other, you would have simply a very slow cur- rent. If the Niagara River were three or four hundred miles long, you would have no fallis. “With La Boca Dam they had the Same difficulty in the beginning in the giving way of the foundation that they will have with Gatun Dam at the end.” Asked for his estimate of cost in fin- ishing the trench according to the pres- ent plans of a.lock canal, the engineer said $280,000,000. He thought it could be completed by 1915. The cost, according to his plans, would be, he estimated, $100,000,000 to erect the first provisional canal, or provisional locks, and ‘“‘noth- ing for the rest.’’ “I mean,” said he, “that cost another $100,000,000 to finish the canal in 10 years, and during those years the transit cljrges would pay the expenses of construction.” The margin of difference between the cost of one system and the other was really. insignificant, a matter of $40,- it would } 000,000 or so, but the advantage lay with his plans, the tidal river having al! the width of the Thames at London Bridge and being, moreover, secure against danger from earthquake.

Almost since the contest started bal- lots have been received daily for Thomas Zapf of the Central High School. With each package of ballots came a card reading, “Votes for Tom Zapf, the dark horse.” The excellent showing of this candidate makes the title appropriate.

ELKWOOD, ALA., Dec. 14, 1908. Dr. Kilmer & Co., Binghamton, N. Y.: Dear Sirs—I have derived such great benefit from the use of your remedy, Swamp-Root, that I believe it to be most we rtant for the publie to know its worth. For the past ten years have been the most miserable of men. Did not know what the trouble was, but had to urinate very frequently both day and night; was all puffed up generally. Could not sleep more than a couple of hours at a time, was greatly distressed after eating a meal and was about worn out. I had tried nearly everything I could see advertised and hear of, with- out helping me to any great extent, un- til finally in October last, at Ripan, Wis., I purchased a one dollar bottle of Swamp-Root and commenced taking it according to directions, and I followed that with another bottle and experi- enced such great relief and benefit from same that I purchased five dollars’ worth at Huntsville, Ala., and continued its use and am now taking it, but in small- er doses and twice a day in place of four times a day and believe by the time present supply is used up I will be en- tirely well. I am feeling better now than for ten years past. Can eat and sleep first-class, in fact I am feeling so good that I cannot resist telling = about it. You are at liberty to publish this testimonial should you wish. Very Respectfully, THOS. STALLARD, U.S. A., Retired, Box 7, R. R. No, 2, Elkwood, Ala. A Clergyman. NEW ROADS, ALA., Jan. 22, 1909. Dr. Kilmer & Co.» Binghamton, N. Y.: Dear Sirs—I write today to the pub- lic that your Swamp-Root cured me of kidney trouble. I was almost past go- ing; having spasmodic spells with my kidneys that were breaking down my constitution. The best medical aid was employed and they pronounced my trou- ble as alkali in the kidneys, but were unable to do me any permanent good. I took four bottles of Swamp-Root and became a well man. This was six years ago and I have had no trace of the trouble. Yours for suffering men, REV. J. R. TAYLOR, Pastor Baptist Church, New Rhoads, La.

Mail Carrier’s Exper- ience. BLOUNTVILLE, TENN. I have been a rural letter carrier for over five years. Some two years ago was taken with severe pains in my back. I used medicine from my family physician for several months without any benefit. A friend, Mr. J. D. Nelson, advised me to try your Swamp-Root, but I had no faith in it. I continued to grow worse and at last decided to try ‘this remedy and bought of Long Bros. a fifty-cent bottle which gave me great relief. I then bought two one-dollar bottles, which [can truthfully say have ar earn d cured me. ad it not been for Swamp-Root, I would have been compelled to quit the rural free delivery service. ' I advise all mail carriers who get pains in their back that Swamp-Root will cure them. I was sa bod that very often my wife would have to help me to arise. M. B. HENDRICKSON, Rural Letter Carrier, Route No. 2. eis A Contractor. DONALSONVILLE, GA., Jan. 20, 1909, Dr. Kilmer & Co., Binghamton, N. Y.: Gentlemen—About four years suffered from kidney trouble and rhen- matism in my hips. The pain across my back became so severe that I could hard- ly straighten up and could not walk without dragging my feet. I would uri- nate frequently and would have to rise two or three times during the night, causing me to suffer from loss of sleep. And with the pain I was all run down and began to lose flesh. I saw Swamp- Root advertised and bought one bottle to try it. After taking it I felt better and could sleep all right at night. I continued to take it until I had taken four large bottles. I was entirely free from any pain in the back and began to in in weight. I always recommend wamp-Root to my friends, as I think the cure in my case remarkable. Yours very truly, M. H. HICKSON, Donalsonville, Ga.

I had been greatly troubled with my kidneys, and with pain in the back; also with what the doctors termed inflammation of the neck of the bladder. Sometimes my back would get in such shape that I was almost helpless. I had tried sev- eral doctors and medicines to no good effect, and finally I noticed in some paper where Dr. Kilmer proposed to send a sample bottle of his kidney medicine, Swamp-Root, free. by mail. I sent at once and received promptly a sample bottle. After taking it” found it did me good. I then purchased

LIQUOR SUPPRESSION Anti - Corporation Measures Would Increase State Reve- nue Million a Year. a

By a Staff ———— of the Post~ ispatc JEFFERSON CITY, Feb. 13.—The General Assembly is expecting a special message frem Gov. Hadley next week, outlining the policy of the administra- tion in reference to important legis- lation. Neither Republican or leaders appear certain as to the scope and character of the new laws demand- eu. There 1s no lack of legislative sug- gestions, however, as more than 500 bills have been introduced in the Senate and House of Representatives. These meas- ures deal with subjects varying from monopoly regulation to the costuming of legislative agents. Our law-making body has cost the State to date $100,000. The average daily expense is nearly $3000. About one-half of this amount is expended for clerk hire. although probably more than one-half of the clerks whose names ap- pear on the legislative payrolls have not yet visited Jefferson City. Liquor Suppression. The one thing evident to the leaders in both parties is that the Legislature will submit to the voters the proposition of a constitutional amendment for the suppression of the liquor traffic. Legislators from St. Joseph, Kansas City and St. Louis are fighting the pro- hibition campaign, but their efforts have received no encouragement from the country members. It is ppobable the prohibition amend- ment, which will go before the voters of the State at the general election in November, 1910—less than 21 months away—will contain a clause providing for a uniform tax increase. The State’s finances, already low, will suffer a total loss of $4,000,000 a year if the saloons are excluded from Missouri. Apparently the brewertes and distillers are doing noting to check the progress of the legislative fight being made against them. There are senators and representatives who openly declare they are opposed to prohibition, but think the question ought to be submitted and finally settled. These men take the po- sition that the lIiquor interests them- selves ought to favor submission at this time. Democratic Geverneor’s Position. While Gov. Hadley is resolutely op- posed to prohibition, he does not seem to be taking a stand against the pro- posed constitutional amendment. The chief propositions concerning the State administratien are those requiring corporations to, levy taxes on their capitalization and the regulation of mo- nopolies. That these bills are still in the legislative incubator is due, the ad- ministration supporters say, to the fact that Gov. Hadley has not decided the exact lines on which they should be drawn. The three large cities of the State will be hft hardest by these anti-corporation measures, which if enacted into law will increase the State revenue $1,000,000 a year at the expense of more than a billion dollars of corporation property in St. Louts, Kansas City, St. Joseph,. Springfield, Joplin and other cities. Democratic Attitude. The Democratic attitude towards home-rule legislation is puzzling the Re- publican leaders. Four years ago the Democratic platform declared for home rule and Gov. Folk made what legisla- tors regarded as a half-hearted attempt to change the present State Board sys- tem which controls the police, election and excise departments of St. Louis. °* In the recent campaign, the Demo- cratic party fought the home-rule propo- sition. Thus far the so-called Folk men in the Legislature have shown little de- sire to aid the Republicans in giving St. Louis a home-rule police department. Gov. Hadley’s plan provides for a bi- partisan police board, to be composed of two Republicans and two Democrats, the fifth member to be appointed by the Mayor. The St. Louis Republican organiza- tion wants the New York system adopt- ed. This provides for only one police commissioner, appointed by the Mayor and subject to removal by the Governor. Appeintments Deferred. Most of Gov. Hadley’s time has been taken up with the matter of patron- age. He is having the time of his life trying to get suitable men to accept police commissionerships in Kansas City. Twelve well-known citizens of that city have declined this honor. The Governor is more impressed with the conduct of the police department in St.. Louls than he is with the Kansas City Board, dominated by the Shannon- Prendergast interests. He was told the other day that a prominent Democratic leader in Kansag City had not “been compelled to close his saloon on Sunday during the time the Sunday closing law has been in effect there. The St Louls police and election board appointments will be deferred,, the Governor says, until after the Apri! election. Gov. Hadley is anxtous to appoint successor tg Excise Commissioner Mul- vihtll at once, but his visit to St. Louis, according to close frtends, convinced him that the politicians can't get the right sort of a man for the place. It seems likely the Governor will make has picked a

Capt. L. S. Flatau, An old river cap- tain who has commanded boats on the Mississippi, the Red River and the Trin- ity River, believes that boats 450 feet long and drawing not more than four and one-half feet of water can be con- structed to carry 5000 tons of freight, and that freight traffic on the Missis- Bippt can be resumed without’ a deep waterway to the gulf. Capt. Flatau is an advocate of carry- ing freight by boats, and says he can see no reason why the old-time freight traffic between St. Louis and New Or- leans should not be resumed. “It is possible to build a beat,” he said, ‘450 feet long with a 55-foot floor and beam. She should be a stern- wheeler and should be built entirely of steel. Such a boat can be built to car- ry 6000 tons on four and one-half feet of water, and we always have that on the Mississippi. The decks would be constructed of sufficient strength to car- ry all kinds of freight. I would have such a boat without a piece of wood in her construction. Everything should be of steel. “T have investigated the subject and find that a boat of this character can be built at the present price of steel for about $180,000. She would easily pay for herself in two seasons. “T wouldn’t advise a combination freight and passenger boat. This boat would go after profits and that would come through freight. I would provide sleeping quarters only for the crew.” Capt. Flatau suggests that St. Louis business interests should investigate his plan, invest idle money and organize a company to build several boats of the charaoter he suggests,

BY RIPLEY D. SAUNDERS. HE engagement of “The Newlyweds and Their Baby’ at the Garrick this past week, the offering playing to crowded houseg at every performance, is proof of the long-disputed fact that a newspaper cartoon series may successfully dramatized. The stage version of the Newlyweds undoubtedly satisfied the high expec- tion of all who saw the play. This expectation was based ypon the satisfy- kc ie comedy of George McManus’ cartoons in the Post-Dispatch. McManus set * peculiarly difficult task for a musical comedy librettist. The principal prob- F was that of conceiving a consistent story of sufficient dramatic interest . 7 » hold the attention of an audierice for two hours or more, presenting the New- “iyweds in action and in situations that should thoroughly accord with the spirit wot the cartoens themselves. Another. problem was that of making little Napo- “Aeon Newlywed, the most popular of all cartoon youngsters, sufficiently promi- an t without overdoing the “baby” feature of the play as a whole. | ‘* ~ Aaron Hoffman and Paul West, the librettists, succeeded in performing this task. They have made effective stage-comedy figures of the Newlywed family. i iit YR as corey

By GELETT BURGESS. NEW YORK, Feb. 13.—‘I find that the usefulness of arms is as the square of their number, not in direct simple ratio. I presume the low cranial devel- opment of the centipede is due to the fact that it finds things too easy. Try- ing to work with one hand certainly ' stimulates one ingenuity.’” So Mr. Wright wrote me from Le Mans, France, where he was recovering from a severe scalding on his arm and side. It gives a hint of his humor and of his seriousness, a hint that the first glance of his face does more to ex- plain. It is a characteristically American countenance, lean, sharp, blue-eyed, with its forehead-too high as to plead guilty to that other most American symptom of baldness. It is_a face al- ’ ternately filled with humor and serious- ness—the first characterized by innum- erable little vertical wrinkles on each side of his large mouth, the soberness shewn in as many horizontal set above his keen eyes. He might be a first cousin to James Whitcomb Riley. Neither Drinks Nor Smokes. One feels for the adequate adjective for this daring explorer of the sky and finds neither “devilish’’ nor pictur- esque,” but the good, old-fashioned term “homely."’ In its best sense, and n@ doubt he would say in every sense, Wilbur Wright is “homely,’’ a man who neither drinks nor smokes—who never has time to think of such things—and who in 360 nights out of the"™365 can be found at home by 8 o'clock. And now by the queer turn of fate, he has to spend his time abroad, where his own name is never correctly pro- nounced, trafficking in adventure of the 2 most perilous type cver conceived by i». Man. H PA bicycle man from Dayton, O., ‘‘one ie: ans Wright boys,’’ you know—the aay quiet chap—and the first man in the world to do what for 5000 years men have tried to do and failed. The man that has waked up the whole of Europe in the atempt to follow, without ever haying equaled his, achievements.

We never in- tended to go into it scientifically or commercially. But we had- read of Lilienthal’s experiments, and we built |our kites and played with them during our summer vacations. Began Work in 1900. “We began in 1900. We found it was easier than we had thought in some re- spects and much harder in others, but succeeded in going up 60 feet at times. We practiced on a hill, to get a rising current of air, deflected from the sur- face, and used wings about thirty feet long over all. That work was about the most dangerous we ever attempted, for we were inexperienced and our machine was crude. “We sometimes went up in a wind of 55 miles an hour, something I believe Lilienthal never attempted, and still he was killed. You’ve no idea unless you’ve tried what a force a strong breeze like that exerts. If it caught the underside of the planes it would tip over 12 men holding the machine before you could think about it. The wind took it back up hill with us merely holding the ends so there was very little exertion neces- sary after we got the hang of it. “But we soon found that we could not rely at all upon the tables of wind pres- sure that had been published. When we constructed a machine according to the formula it would not lift what it theo- retically should. “There was no use in going ahead in contsruction until we had sufficient data to construct scientifically a flying ma- chine to fill certain conditions. In our laboratory we devised a new form of testing machine, and got a set of valves that could be checked accurately. We tried hundreds of shapes of planes and curved surfaces, at all inclinations to the wind. The tables. we figured out are, I think, the most accurate in ex- istence, and it is our ambition to make the Wright tables so accurate that they shall be the standard for aerodynamos for a hundred years to come. “But it is hardly right to say that there is any one ideal surface or shape. It simply depends upen what you want to do with your wing. Different birds have different shaped wings, and you can tell what sort of flight they're ca- pable of by looking at the wing. “If you desire the maximum lifting capacity, it is of one form; if you wish the maximum velocity, it’s another form. But what we found out once, and for all, was exactly how different surfaces were acted upon by the wind. You can cut any shape of cardboard and curve it any way you like, for in-

chine. I don’t know his brother Orville, and so I cannot say which of the two stance, and. I can tell how the wind ~

LONDON SHOW IMPROVEMENT me} ai,» 7-~eF . Elimination of the Japanese Question on Pacific] ™: | Coast and. Peace in Bulgaria Strength- en the Market Position. 7 & S somewhat “low, were

NEW YORK, Feb. 13.—The Evening Sun in its financial review today says: “As frequently arranged when a legal! holiday falls on Friday the New York Stock Exchange, at the request of its ‘members who wished a three-days’ rest from business, remained closed this Sat- urday, when ordinarily there would have been only a half-day session. The New York Cotton Exchange and the Pro- @uce Exchange, as well as the grain de- partment of the Consolidated Stock Ex- change, opened this morning for the usual half-day session and the clearing house and all the banking institutions here remained open the usual time to- day. “There being no heliday interruptions fn London either yesterday or today, American securities in those markets continued to show improvement on the other side, which was started in this city last Wednesday and Thursday. “The betterment in London was not confined to American snares, but by rea- gon of promised quiet over the Bulgarian dispute, and the cessation of legislative hostilities on our Pacific Coast against the Japanese, there was a marked rise in console. Prices in London, which fol- . somewhat irregular today, with more advances than declines. “A generally higher range of prices was established in the dealings in the ‘abbreviated week in the stock market. Transactions in stocks have been in reduced volume, but the dealings in bonds have been maintained upon a comparatively large scale, and what is of greater importance is the fact that there is no diminution in ac- aie to be detected in the outside in- PP sere market. ““"There have been few developments Fantne the week- calculated toe incite speculative activity in one direction or another. Consequently the business of the commission houses has been on a vory small scale and the trading largely of a professional character. For that ‘reason, technical market circumstances might be referred to as having been mainly inatrumental in the course of prices. “In the stock market there have been no evidences of liquidation, and the loan market for stocks indicates the ex- istence of a considerable short account. It must be said at the outset that neither the state of the country’s trade /nor the condiion of the Federal finances , affords good ground for stockmarket "buoyancy, but. apparently professional “traders and others mterested in securi- ‘ties hold the view that the worst in both respects is now fully known and appreciated and that any further change must be for the better. “At the close of last week and in the early part of the present week the so-called Japanese question loomed rather large in discussion, but S@ppearently the matter has been dis- posed of for the time being, by the most recent actions of the legislatures of the far Western states. Through- out the week Jananese bonds ad- Vanced steadily in the London stock et, where they are most actively page t in, but their strength was based fon's ‘ay: the proepectiv unifica- on o f the Government deb salthou Pete sam he trust companies e of, mor latter institutions to estab- n the basis fixed new upo aw. **rne wisdom of that law many times questi as it ap- to e er departure from sound iple of a ogntras reserve tution. 80 long the trust ept§ their reserves hha! and ong

cheerful sentiment which has been manifested in Wall street during the present week. “The Supreme Court at Washington in recess, speculators have been epriv ar one always fruitful source of conjecture with regard to impending decisions of importance. he course of prices in the stock mar- ket has been characterized by a consider- able degree of uniformity. At the same time the so-called specialties in the va- rious departments of the market continued prominently in the dea'ings. in comparison with the usually active issues and most of the more extensive movements ] have been in the securities of that classi- . The successful consummation of a number of recent railway deals has fired the speculative imagination to lock for other transactions of a corresponding nature, and rumors and suggestions tn this genera! di- rection have mn and still are pilentifu', with little corroborative evidence thus far ob- tainable. The actual and prospective absence from the city of a number of conspicuous capital- ists and operators has naturally tended to stock market quietude, and there is no rea- son to look for any increase in their activi- ties for many weeks to me “The- g markets continued firm, but agricultural conditions ave not thus far apparently entered actively into the reckon- fat s of speculative securities. It is doubt- have to ar- increasing the Indeed, aside Congress will range further means for revenues of the Government. rom the strong technical situation, the firmness of the stock market might be de- scribed as remarkable rather than S altogether reasonable.’’ o--—— - Money was in good demand and discounts were firmer on the London Bourse today. On the Stock Exchange, while the under- tone was good, profit-taking after early ad- vances caused setbacks in several directions. Consols touched and closed at 85. Home ae eased and affirs finished strong. Grand Trunk collapsed sharply on the dis- appointing dividend, the preferred shares being down to 7 points, while the com- mon was 1% lower, c'osing above the worst for the day.

Prominent St. Louis,men and women, some of whom are members of the larger clubs, have talked with Mr. Ad- dington about his idea and have ap- proved it. He believes he will get financial sup- port from many of these, although all the money needed for carrying out his plans is in his hands. Mr. Addington owns the let on which it igs proposed to erect the clubhouse. t is about a half block west of Taylor avenue, on the south side of Washing- ton boulevard.

He gaid he cursed the butler because he spoke your mother frequently in her last sick- Jin an insolent manner to the madame, ness?’’ “She visited her possibly twice a week and took flowers.”’ “Don't you call that frequently?” “No, not when my mother was upon her death-bed.’’ Again his voice broke, and there was a suspicion of tears in his tone. Dentes Swearing at Wife. “And you are positive that you did not use any of these epithets which your wife swears you used toward her?” The voice of the millionaire brewer was pitched high as he answered: “Not one of them.”’ “You’ve been trained to command?’’ “T've been trained to manage men.’”’ “Why did you earry a pistol all the time?’’ ‘When I was 22 years old they made a brewmaster of me. I weighed only 120 pounds and I had to go all around through the brewery alone at all hours of the night. That is why I carried a nistol.”’ “But you carried it too, didn’t you?” ‘‘T admit that it grew to be somewhat of a habit with me. But I did not carry it always.”’ Attorney Leahy asked: ‘Wasn't it annoying to you that your wife would not answer your every command when you said: ‘Come,’ ‘Go,’ ‘Stand up,’ ‘Lie down,’ ‘Roll over,’ and the like?” “If you mean that I was domineering, no. 1 try to be as agreeable and as pleasant as possible, but we all make mistakes.’ “That day you were out driving and pulled your gun, who were you looking to shoot that day?’ Merely Protecting His Wife. ‘No one: I was looking to protect the madame. It was the first day she had been permitted to.be out since the child was born.” It was in evidence that Mr. Lemp had fired his revolver once in his home. His wife had testified that he did it to frighten her, and she said that he had threatened to commit suicide. He said he could not remember that. he had ever fired the revolver in the house, but if he did it was accidental, and he denied that he had ever threatened to commit suicide. “Do you look upon the firing of that revolver in the house as a trivial mat- ter?’’ he was asked. “Yes: if it happened only once,” answered. “Do you look upon it as trivial that you cursed your wife?” “T never cursed her in my life.” “Do you look upon it as trivial that you struck your wife?” “I did not strike her.” **Never?”’ ‘‘Never.”’ “Would did ?’’ It was then that Mr. Lemp half arose in his chair and said: “I know of no worse crime than for a husband to strike his the mother of his child.”’ : Never Heard Child Curse, He testified that he had never hear his child curse. His wife had testified that it was a common thing for. the child to curse, and a cook in the family had. testified that when little Willie Lemp Jr. had cursed her and she re- monstrated with him. he replied: ‘‘Well, papa calls it to Mamma, and I guess I can call it to the cook.” In his direct testimony Mr. Lemp had said that his wife did not keep enough servants in the house. “Didn't you have the means to hire all the servants in that house that wefe needed?’ Attorney Leahy asked him. “I had the means, yes.” “You were the absolute there?”’ “No, I do not master.” “Do you remember saying when there was a dispute about putting the palms and rubber plants in the laundry in the fall that you would show your wife who was boss?” “I aid not use that expression. Those were plants that had been given me by my mother, who was dead, and I wished them to be preserved. That is why I wag firm about their being placed where they would ge Raver in the daytime, he you think it trivial if you wife, master consider’ that I was ordeal § and when he backed in toward a table in the kitchen, where the cook's carving knives were lying, he drew his revolver and ‘“‘covered’’ the butler. “Did you think the butler was going to use a knife?’’ asked Mr. Leahy. “That’s what a colored man. usually does,’’ he answered. “Had you been drinking that nfght?’’ “Yes, I had had a drink or two.” “What is your capacity for holding liquor ?’’ “I don’t know how to gauge that.”’ “Haven't you tested it?’ “I’ve been in some sessions, yes.” “Had you been in one then?’ “No, I was perfectly sober.”’ Mrs. Lemp Takes Notes. Mrs. Lemp did not sit still a moment while her husband was testifying. She sat facing him at a table between her attorneys, and before her was a thick tablet of yellow paper upon which she wrote memoranda with a lead pencil as he talked. At times her pencil fair- ly flew over the paper and at other times she would sit with the tip of the pencil between her lips as she watched his face. Again she would lean side- wise and whisper to Mr. Leahy, evi- dently suggesting a question to him and often he would nod his head and then out would come the question. Mrs. Lemp wore the same black. dress and white hat and veil she has worn each day since the trial began. Her fathdr sat in an-arm chair beside Judge Dillon, one of her lawyers, and he leaned back in it and looked most of the time away from the witness and down Over the faces of the crowd in the courtroom. Lemp on Stand Tomorrow. The trial of the Lemp case will be resumed Monday at 10 a. m. Mr. Lemp, whose cross-examination was not fin- ished when court adjourned Saturday afternoon, will go upon the stand again. The lawyers in the case hope to get through with it by Wednesday. There are 18 witnesses subpenaed for Mr. Lemp’s side of the case, but it is not the intention to put all of them on the stand. After his side of the case is finished there will be some rebuttal] testimony in behalf of Mrs. Lemp, and then the arguments of perers to the court will Close the trial.

HIRED GIRL ENDS N DAMAGE SUIT “Slavery” in Sadie Papp Case Used in Domestic Sense, Says Mrs. Winkler. SONNENSCHEIN He Says Mrs. Papp Says She Is Treated Like a Daughter by Employers.

TALKS

Solicitude on the part of Mr. and Mrs. Arthur Winkler of 6009 Michigan ave- ily’s nired gir! nas involved them in a suit for siander which was filed against them in the Circuit Court yesterday by Mr. and Mrs. Louis Sonneschein of 321 Marion street. Mrs. Sadie Papp, eight months from Roumania, is the innocent cause of all the trouble. Her husband is in Rou- mania. She doe& the housework at the Sonnenschein domicile. In some way Mr. and Mrs. Winkler were led to be- lieve that she was not well treated. It came to the ears of Mr. and Mrs. Son- néenschein that they had said that Mrs. Papp was kept in slavery at . their house. So they want Mr. and Mrs. Winkler to pay them $4600. Mrs. Winkler says that if she said anything about slavery in connection with the lot of Mrs. Papp, she was using the word in its liberal domestic sense and there was no intention to convey the idea that the woman was under physical restraint. She insists that she formed her conclusions much from what the woman told her about how hard she had to work, how unsat- isfactory was her fare and how close was her confinement to her household duties. Mr, Sonnenshcin as Interpreter. Mr. Sonnenschein says he pays her $20 a month, which he considers very fair compensation for the work which she has to do, and that he is also send- ing her to night school, so that she can learn to speak English. At present she cannot speak English, and it was necessary therefore for her to make her statement with Mr. Son- nenschein acting as her interpreter. She said, according to his translation, that Mr. and Mrs. Sonnenschein treated her as a father and mother would, and added she would not be likely to stay there eight months if she was being treated like a slave. LINCOLN LETTER-THANKING THE METHODIST CHURCH FOR AID DURING CIVIL WAR IS FOUND In It Emancipator Declared That Church Had Done More Than Any Other. SPRINGFIELD, O., Feb. 13.—At a Lincoln birthday celebration here George S. Dial read from the original of ua Lincoln letter written to the Methodist General Conference at Bal- timore, May 1, 1864, upon being assured of the support of the Methodist Church in h!s prosecution of the war. The letter was kept by Bishop Morris, secretaty of the Conference, and latar given to Judge EB. G. Dial of this city. The letter follows: “Gentlemen—In response to your ad- dress allow me to attest the accuracy of its historical statement; endorse the sentiments it expresses, and thank you in the nation’s name for the sure prom- ise it gives. “Nobly sustained as the Government has been by all the churches, I would utter nothing which might in the least appear invidious against any, yet, with- out this, it may fairly be said that the Methodist Episcopal Church, not less devoted than the best, is, by its greater numbers, the most important of all. “It is no fault in others that the Meth- odist Church sends more soldiers to the field, more nurses to the hospitals and more prayers to Héaven than any. God bless the Methodist Church—bless all the churches—and blessed be God, who, in this, our great trial, giveth us the churches. “A. LINCOLN.” May 1, 1864. KINNEY SAYS REPUBLICANS WILL LOSE HOUSE DELEGATES Senator Believes Simmons Is the Only Legal Republican Candidate. State Senator Tom Kinney said last night that he did not see how Repub- lican candidates for the House of Dele- gates were going to get their names legally on the official ballot. He ex- pressed the opinion that Frank Sim- mons of the Tenth Ward, the only Re- publican who filed notice of his candi- dacy before the filing time for ward delegations closed Friday night, is the only Republican who can legally be a candidate. The Republicans withheld their names at the filing time because of an under- standing that the House candidates were to be named in a city convention. Kinney says he is advised by lawyers that the election law will not permit the names of convention candidates to go on the official ballot, because of their failure to file. “The Supreme Court passed on that. point in my contest with ‘Kid’ Sheridan for a nomination to the House,” said Kinney. “The Court declared that

But I thank you very much for your welcome.’’ When Mr. Taft finished his speech at one stop and turned to enter his car someone called out, “We want to protect our lumber.” Auditer’s Remark Stops ‘Train, Mr. Taft turned with a quickness that surprised everyone who viewed “The big man.’ The conductor, who had pulled the _ bell cord to start, grabbed it again and gave the “stop” signal. The slow moving wheels came to a stand. Mr. Taft rushed to the railing of the car and, shaking his fingers at the auditors, exclaimed: Trouble, Troubic, Trouble. “That is one trouble about you. That is the trouble down in New Orleans.

We are not going to frame a sectional law. I say ‘we.’ “T am not a member of the Legisla- ture, but such influence as I have will be thrown to the performance of a con- tract which we made at Chicago, to which I belleve you were not a party, but we are going to bring you in.

Speciz! to the Post-Dispatch. DENVER, Colo., reb. 13.—A_ red- headed train robber, who at the head of a band, stopped eastbound Rio Grande express train No. 4, eight miles from Denver, carried away $35,000 in registered mail. with such systematic thoroughness that United States soldiers, detectives and gcores of policemen in automobiles alit- er 24 hours search have been unable to gét a trace of the man. The police beiieve that the bandits are now in Denver, having doubled back to the city at 2:50 this morning, after driving away from the robbed train in @ rubber-tired buggy toward Fort Logan. While railroad officials place the rob- bers’ loot at $35,000, they say that fur- ther investigation may show that the total is much larger. Eighteen packages of registered mail were secured. These included five from Salt Lake, addressed to Greely, Colo.; Georgetown, Colo.; Waco, Tex.; White- wright, | Tex., and Denver; one from Pueblo ‘to Denver, one from Colorado Bprings to Denver, one from Taylor, Wash., to Steamboat Springs, Colo.; one from Winfield, Wash., to Sterling Colo.; one from Leadville to Denver, and others from Glenwood Springs and other Colorado towns. One of these packages is said to have contained a large sum of money, but until a thorough checking up of the missing packages is possible, thé exact amount secured by the robbers cannot be’ ascertained. The robbery was remarkable for its It took place within legs than two miles of Fort Logan, the United States military reservation, and at a spot ‘where habitations are plenti- ful. Yet so thorough was the work of the robbers and so well were their plans laid that they had fully an hour and’ a half start of the officers.

Fifty independent oil refiners and job- bers from Missouri, Kansas, Illinois, Oklahoma and Ohio met at the Planters Hotel last night and organized the Na- tional Independent Oil Association. The purpose of the association is to fight for the protection of the independents ev- erywhere and to demonstrate that they are amply able to supply Missouri with oil if the Standard is ousted, in ac- cordance with the decision of the Su- preme Court.

The affair was a big success and a crowd of enthusiastic students and St. Louis lovers of athletic sports rooted from early in the evening until nearly midnight, when the last event was fin- ished. The vig throng was treated to one of the biggest surprises in athletics of the season, when the 15-mile in- door feature race was won by an al- most unknown athlete, »nd from such athletes of world-wide fime as Sid- ney Hatch and Joseph lorshaw, win- ners of Marathons, and Olympic ath- letes, Erxleben Beats Forshaw. J. Erxileben, unattached, won the 15- mile run. Erxleben has not shown much in previous races, although he has al- ways been possessed of all kinds of en- durance. Last night Erxleben won simply because Joe Forshaw, Olympic Marathon man for the past two years, made a mistake in the tenth mile. For- shaw figured the race to be between Frank Habig of the Central Y. M. CC A. and himself. Habig set the pace for the first two miles. Morissey, the Yonkers, N. Y., runner fafled to show up foy the race, and Forshaw trailed the Y. M. C. A. man as he figured Habig as his most dangerous tompetitor. In the tenth mile Forshaw started to spring with Habig right at his heels. He did not pay any at- tention to Erxlieben, who went by both men like a flash. Erxleben had not been tapped. He passed Forshaw and Habig as though they were stand- ing still. Habig, as the rdce progressed, slowed down. Forshaw kept on, but he could not catch up with Erxleben. The last five laps were exciting. For- lap. Erxleben was tired, but still man- aged to almost hold his own with For- shaw, and finished in good condition. Erxleben’s victory was one of the big- gest surprises in a long time in local athletic circles. The time was ih. 30m. 233-5s. Sidney Hetch of Chicago also competed. Hatch was not in the best trim. He dropped out early in the race. His showing was a big disappointment to the crowd of local men who had watched him run the M. A. C. Marathons. Erxleben’s ad- vantage over Forshaw at the finish was | almost a full lap, of one-twelfth of a mile. St. Louis U. Stars Score. In the shot-put Henry Lindsay of St. Louis University won.

fielder and a top-notch pitcher, so those managers who are in the field to shake off discards will not interest him in the least. Manager James is out for a pen- nant and pennants are not won from the discard. That Stanley Robison and Bresnahan of the Cardinals are planning deals, is quite evident from reports that are cir- culated. The i must have an- ome" infielder and should have a pitch- ef and an outfielder before starting Seuth on the- spring training trip. But the reports ef deals with the Cardinals have been on the wrong side, for instead of taking in an infielder, the talk says, they are to let one go. The big clubs of the National League seem to feel they have the right to pick the ripe fruit from tne Cardinals’ tree. They are looking for one or two men that will give them a chance for the pennant and are willing te unload a bundle of dead stuff to the tafl end team in payment. Robison might get enough mediocre material in that manner to pu!] his team out of last place. He might finish seventh or even sixth in the next race, but he would then face the same old problem that he faced when he first employed John McCloskey as manager. Ht would then have to shake off this dead material and seek and develop new and young live enes, to ever get a cham- pienship crowd together. World’s Champions has accomplished the task. Chance is now back in Chicago, on good terms with Murphy, and they are pulling to- gether for the success of the Cubs of 1909. But there’s another force in Chicago that doesn’t intend to let things flow along so easily for the National League and the world’s champions. The success of the Cubs in Chicago and the National League in general has wrought up the indignation of one Ban Johnson, the leader of the American League. Ban has a trump card to play on Murphy. He is going to bring up again the ticket scandal of the Chicago games of last fall’s world’s series. There are those who say that it is no other than Ban who has caused Pul- lam, the National League president, to come out openly against Charley Mur- derful Record Made in Years Gone By.

BY S. CARLISLE MARTIN. Y OU simply can’t forget! The lure of the track and field, once ingrained in the system, is not to be driven out. The joints may be creaking, the muscles unresponsive, the feet gouty, but forever in the mind of him who has once fought it out at the tape is the memory of the stirring contests of other days. That was why, when the marathon professionals came to town and the talk of professional athletics was heard in the land, old Tom Aitken, the father of athletic sports in St. Louis and elsewhere, and instructor at Triple A, cameout of-his shell, pricked up his ears and began to take notice of things athletic. Tom usual- ly withdraws into his cocoon at Triple A during the winter months and is ne more to be heard from until spring and golf return. But this year the man who in his days won many laurels on all sorts of fields just could not keep away from that race between Dorando and Smallwood. And he has been talk- ing professional sports ever since. Tom’s Records Date Back in Early Days. ae ie profession of athletics Is not what it used te be,”’ re- marked Tom as he settled for a chat in the cozy reception room at the Triple A clubheuse, “but it does seem that it is picking up a trifle in this country, .where the am- ateur has for so long crowded the ‘pre’ completely off the map. I like the amateurs all right, but ye see I BO way back” (back to May 23, 1863, to be more exact than Tom himself), “and when I was doing things, the professionals were the drawing cards. Those were the days of vaulters who climbed the pole a foot above what they de now; of hundred-yard men who trained for months to make a ‘killing;’ of bookmakers and Dig crowds and, best of all, the shil- lings.’’ Tom pauged, while his eye grew vague as his mind rambled back over landscapes he had -« looked upon more than two decades ago. Many a dear won field where on cinder and turf he had strained with the pick of the world, doubtless rose to view. For this grim-lipped, gaunt-cheeked, iron-framed, yet kindly eyed veteran has run the gamut of competition and such com- petition as tested the heart,. the courage and the nerves, as well as the bone and sinew. Today Tom’s ambftion is to shine at the middle-aged game of golf. ‘T used to think it a gowktsh sport,” he remarked once, “but it takes something beside a loose muscle to play the game with the leaders, at that.” But time was when the Triple A’s teacher was a champion ef cham- pions—the best allround athlete of the world. I asked him about it, to make sure. Records of the Past Look Strong Today. * é{ ES,” he replied. “TI was that, but there’s no use bleating about that now. It’s what is done today that counts. But sure it meant something in them days to be the best,” and draguing it ont fact by fact, I forced him te give up reluctantly some of the perform- ances that made him once the first man among the athletes. Here are some: 100-yard dash in 9 3-5s., six watches. High jump, 6 ft. % in. : 130 yards in 12%s. #40 yards in 50 3-5s. Broad -fump, 22 ft. 2 in. One mile tn 4m. 43s. Pole vault, 10 ft. 11 in In addition Tem has and threwn the put the shot ship in Boston five years in succes-

sion and turned a hop, step and jump record of 49 feet 1 inch. Tom eould also go a bit over the hurdles and in 1891 defeated so distinguished a run- ner over the sticks as Jim Collins, of Chicago. Money for Athletes in the Old Days. O this hard-fisted eld native of Walbenburn, Scotland, had a right to let his mind’s eye dwell on the days before the mus- cles began to stiffen and the sinews to require middle-aged athietics in- stead of the strenuous campaigns of youth. ‘Yes, the old days were great ones and I made a lot of money. But sport was always conducted on the square in England. If anyene tried te get away with a creoked game he might as well have left the ceuntry. Why, I remember back in 1891 I teek a picked team of athletes te Lendon to compete ever there When we got to the track all the beys could do was stand and stare.”’ ‘There was a line of bookmakers, I should say abeut 200 of them in the bunch, betting on the runners. As soon as 32 man would ‘hit the tape’ they’d commence to yell ‘4 te 1 agin the fieldt* Betting a Feature In English Games. ‘¢ ONBY! You never saw so Mi much money bet. They're @ great betting people, but it’s got to be square. In one of the ‘sprints’ I walked up and bet a beek- maker a half soyeretgn at 3 to 1 on ene of my boys. Then, never think- ing, I strolled over to the young fel- low and gave him some instruc- tions. When I came back the book- maker said: ‘None of that, me boy, don't ever do that again.’ You see, he thought there was something wrong—they're that particular in the old country. They don’t set a jockey down for a week er se, they rule ’em off for iife, if they think he’s crooked. “A professional could make lots of money betting on himself in those days.

Sometimes the Wager Makes the Game. {¢ NE Sunday I and four or ‘ five of our ‘stable’ went out into the country for a walk. When we had gone a miles, we noticed, off in the timber, p lot of people congregated. We took a peek at ‘em and saw what they were doing. What do you think we saw? They had two little sticks, about two and one-half inches long, and they’d throw them into a little brook. When we first heard. them they were betting which one would get to the tape first, and they were betting big money, too. When the little sticks came to an eddy, they’d hedge their bets. I've seen ‘em bet on two cockroaches tied to strings. “When I came to this country in ’79 the game was good and I made a lot of money. But of late years it has fallen away in the East. “I do not look for professionalism in sport to ever regain prestige. This marathon fever is just a flurry. They have killed several profession- coursing and athletics. And I do not see any- thing that points to a future revival, “It's the day of the amateur and it will grow darker for the profes- sional befere the dawn.” The grizzled old veteran thonght it all over before he added: “It’s a great pity the poor profes- sional can’t turn amateur.”

TALLINGS HAS HARD PUZZLE IN ‘NEWYORK CLUB New Manager of Highlanders Faces Difficult Task to Get Team Out of Hole.

NEW YORK, Feb. 13.-—-When George T. Stallings returns to New York from his home in the South, where he has been very busy because of some busi- ness developments which were unlooked for when he departed to cotton land, it is expected that he will give a little hint as teywhe probable personnel ef the regular team at American League Park next summer. Anybody whe knows the players who are on the contract list of the Highland- ers may sit down and guess—and keep on guessing—as to the ientity of the men who will fill the various positions. There is a lot of fun in guessing, but precious little comfort to it when the team, as it has been. guessed, is wrong from top to bottom. About all that is known is that Chase will play firat base; that-Kle!now will be behind the bat, and that Manning is gure to be one pitcher and ‘Joe’ Lake * another. Outside of that the 1909 team is Jargo- ly problematical. Perhaps it is as much ec to the manager.. It wouldn’t be a bit surprising if Stallings were ta announce that he would. not think ef naming A ‘regular team until after he had seen the players in action in spring practice. There are three positions on the in- field which are likely to give him some worry. True, he has ball players of ex- perience, with whem he can be assured _ that he will not go far wrong, but when a manager has a tall-end club by the tail, as it were, he is going to pul! gome to get it from the hole in which it has buried itself. Second base, shortstop and third base ‘gfe the three pieces which Stallings would like to move to the king row and have them erowned. At second he has an old and experienced man, Laporte, who may be a great deal better ba:!' player under the new regime. At short he has Elberfield, another player whose skill is undisputed, but who may not fit with the new order of things, and Ball, a player of experience which was gained last year, who can make some of the most admirable stops ever seen én any ball field and some of the most gsoul-racking errors.

WIFE SUES RIVAL THEN GETS QUICK IVORCE DECREE Mrs. Lillian Lawton Follows $10,000 Demand With Pro- ceedings Against Husband.

A divorce was granted at Clayton yes- terday to Mrs. Lillian Lawton, who is suing Mrs. Enid Clifton Gillispie for $10,000 for the alienation.of George Law- ton’s affections, after she had told Judge McElhinney how she entered Mrs. Gillispie’s home in Greenwood and found Lawton and Mrs. Gillispie there. The damage suit was filed some time prior to the divorce suit, but the latter action was tried first because it was not contested. Judge McElhinney grant- ed the decree by default. Mrs. Lawton lives with her mgther, at Home Heights, on the St. Charles Rock road. In her testimony, Mrs. Lawton said that she left her husband last July, aft- er ll years of happy married life, and said that he had admitted to her that he had made frequent visits to the Gil- She said that Lawton ad- mitted that he was known to Mrs. Gil- lispie’s Greenwood neighbors as her brother. Her Will Forbade Marriage. She also told how, in investigating court records, she had discovered ‘In the will of Mrs. Gillispie's mother, made in 1899, before her daughter’s marriage, a provision that she should forfeit her share of the estate if she married George Lawton. This was two years after Lawton was married. ‘The mother has since died, and Mrs. Gillispie inher- ited the property. It was after her separation, she sald, that she went to the Gillispie home in Greenwood, which was pointed out to her by neighbors, and waited outside until she:'saw her husband enter. She followed him, and he first laughed and then commanded her to leave, she said. SEISMOGRAPHS FOR COAL MINES Russians Believe They Can Fore- stall Explosions of Gas. ST.

Kies . selhorst PianoCo. sage ae sty Moe INDEPENDENTS — CAN KILL THE HOUSE COMBINE There Is Little Chance That ' Democratic Candidates Will Be Improved. DELAY BY COMMITTEE

Republican Convention Has Opportunity to Name a Clean Ticket.

Hope for a House of Delegates that is free from combines amd evil domina- tion now centers to some extent in the Republican City Convention, but princi- pally in the independent voters of the wards that are threatened with another period of misrepresentation. The Democratic City Committee, de- spite the earnest supplications of busi- ness en and the better element of the party, hes declined to force, in several important wards, the nomina- tion of acceptable candidates. -The time for calling an open convention to nomi- nate delegate candidates expired yes- terday. One faction of the committee blames another for this disregard of a public demand and their own opportunity to cleanse the House of Delegates. Chance for Republicans, It is predicted that the Republicans, realizing the weakness of the Demo- cratic candidates in several wards, will oppose them with worthier nominees and at the same time prevent the can- didacy of any of their own partisans who are in the present -Houre of Dele- gates. In default of any choice between the Republican and the Democratic cardi- date in any given ward, the decent voters have still the opportunity to elect an independent. Results in the election Nov. $ indicate that a revolt such as that against “Lawler” ‘Daley, boss of the Twenty-second Ward, would defeat at least half the worst members of the combine. Two years ago Daley carried his ward for Frank Hussey by a majority of 627 over Frank Orff. Last November the Republicans captured the Twenty-sec- ond by 479—a change of 1106 votes. Democratic Slump in Third. There was a heavy :ioss in the vote cast Tor the Democratic ticket in the uaird Ward last November compared with the number polled by ‘“Jiggers’’ Gallagher in 1907. Gallagher is a can- didate for re-election to the House of Delegates, but the’ Republicans hope to defeat him. Nick Polito, Republican committeeman of the ward, and “Jimmy” Miles, its Democratic boss, have not until this year fought each other very savagely. They appear now to be really at war and Gallagher’s chances of success are to be. measured according to the extent and sincerity of I »publican opposition. Speaker Ike Conran of the House wants to return. Two years ago his opponent, Otto Richter, a weak Repub- lican, lost the ward by more than 400. In November the Republicans were but 2°5 votes short of controlling the ward. Chance tg Beat Wiedmer Delegate Fred Wiedmer of vty Thir- teenth Ward, head of the combine in the House of Delegates during the years 1905-7, and recently admitted to the fold with Gallagher, ‘‘Boots’’ Brennan, Pries- meyer and Warner, was elected over a Republican by 686 votes. Cowherd re- ceived .but 9% votes more than Hadley in the Thirteenth Ward last November. John R. Wall, a dentist, is fighting Wiedmer for/the nomination and the Republicans probably will name a strong candidate. If they do so and are able t> poll 96 votes more than they mustered last fall, Wiedmer will not return to the House of Delegates. Should the Republicans command the same vote they had in the Fourteenth Ward last November, Matt J. Tobin, a member of the combine, will not accom- plish his re-election. Besides, Andrew Powers, Democratic committeeman in the Fourteenth Ward, is out for the namination against Tobin and a fight is likely to result. Tobin was chosen over Biattner, Re- publican, two years ago by a majority of M8. The ward went Republican last November by 708—a change of 1016 votes. James T. Brennan, another member of the combine, ig trying to return to the House. John P. Farrington, a real estate agent, is his opponent for the nomination. Since Brennan’s election two years ago by a majority of 1059 over the Republican candidate and 1847 over Nash, an independent, the Twenty- sixth Ward has become Republican by 10. That indicates a change of 1167 votes. There is an equal chance for Demo- crats or independents to defeat objec- tionable Republicans should any be nominated. Priesmeyer of the « First Ward, it is understood, will not be selected as the Republican member for the House. Bourg of the Sixth Ward, a Republican member of the combine, is seeking re-election. He was chosen two y ‘ago by’ a majority of 42 Lorents Seitz, a druggist, is the Dem- ocratic candidate in the ward. Delegates ‘Troll, Sachse, Schell and Tirre, other Republicans in the com- bine, were elected by majorities rang- ing from 111 to 3%. NA Trt 7 —s i eS al / ‘ 4 ‘ ~- * - a if 1 ah ‘ ~ ; 8 ’ . P

, eS he hauled down his flag and retired | from the service. He mentioned the possibility. of war with Japan only once, and then he dismissed it without seriousness. “The Japs don’t want to fight the United States,’’ he said. ‘‘They’ve got sense. If you take my word for it you won't lose any sleep over the ef- ficiency of our navy.” A Minute Ahead of Time. azhis struck a responsive chord in the audiehce and it applauded him wildly, as it did again when he finished his talk with the statement that the fleet had entered the Golccn Gate one min- ute ahead of the time scheduld when he set sail, in spite of the predictions of foreign journals, who should have known better, that the South American ports would be filled with broken-down and worn-out American battleships as a result of the cruise. Humorously he told of getting the fleet away on its journey and the red tape and nonsense necessary to get to sea with a big fleet. He said the heart- breaker came when all the old men whose time expired soon were ordered ashore and they had to fill the ships with boys who had shortly before been plowing out home in Missouri, and who didn’t know which end of a battleship went first. But they will all come home séasoned seamen, and the best of their kind in the world. : He created great amusement when he told of victualing the fleet before its departure. “Housekeepers will understand this, if indeed there are any housekeepers left in this day of department houses,” he said. He said that the feeding of 15,000 men was the easiest thing in the world for,what he called the “swivel chair chaps” in Washington, Nut it was a task of the greatest magni \ude to old officers who had been domg that sort of thing in the navy fr years. 48,0090 Pounds of Turkey. For instancé, he cited 48,000 pounds of turkey, with plum duff and other fixings for the sailors’ Christmas din- ner, 980,000 pounds of: fresh beef, 150,000 pounds of mutton, and so on down to two tons of candy, not for the sailors, but to give to the girls who came aboard during the trip. The housekeepers in the audience gasped at the figures. It was a nasty day when the fleet was to have set sail, Dec. 15, but the President changed all that the next day, when he went down to Newport News in the Mayflower to see the fleet off. “There has been a good deal of speculation as to what the President said to me then while 40 cameras were clacking on one side, and 40 more on the other and some behind and in front,” said Kvans. “I will take you into the secret. He impressed upon me the peaceful character of the cruise and then said, ‘Now clear out,’ and we did so.” The next morning, when he was get- ting the sick report from the fleet, there came news of 26 cases of measles, «Vv cases of mumps and chicken pox, and all the childish diseases the new re- cruits could bring aboard, but a few short, lumpy seas soon made the men good and healthy. He spoke of the perfect trip ‘through the Straits of Magellan ana of the re- port that the ships were going to be blown up in the harbor of Rio de Janeiro by the Japs, which he consid- ered a very good joke indeed. His entrance into the harbor of Val- paraiso, where in the Httle Yorktown he had been confronted by eight cruis- ers, Was @ matter of great satisfaction to him, backed as he was with 16 Amer. lean battleships. The odds were all in his favor this time. Sorry When He Finished.

Admiral Evans and Senator Jeff Davis of Arkansas were both guests at the Jefferson yesterday, and James A. Cruikshank, the manager of the Ad- miral’s lecture tour, having a _ long- standing acquaintance with Davis, thought it would be a pleasant thing for the two men to meet. He asked Davis if he would like to be introducec to Evans, and the Arkansas Senator lsaid he would be delighted to do so. Admiral Evans was sleeping when Mr. Cruikshank went to find him, but a meeting was arranged for them at 6:30 o'clock. At that time the Admiral was waiting in his room, but the Sen- ator was not to be found. After search- ing through the hotel, Mr. Cruikshank found him in the barber’s chair being shaved. Admiraf Evans was compelled to dress and dine in order to get to his lecture on time, and so they missed meeting. Admiral Evans last night indignantly denied the gossip of the hotel corridors that he hw used any language in any way discourteous to Senator Davis. It Was purely an accident that they did not meet, and was the fault of the Senator in not being on hand at the appointed time, both Admiral Evans and his manager, who arranged the meeting, say. They had it all arranged to cut Ad- miral Evans’ legs off ohee away back in 1865, when ‘‘Fighting b’’ was just a spring of an 18-year-old ensign. He had led a forlorn-hope charge of 62 men up the hill against Fort Fisher, in North Carolina, and only eight came out of it whole. Tells of Fort Fischer Fight. It’s a tale that has been often told, but the Admiral talked about it again yesterday afternoon, when James H. Crowley of 5893 Delmar boulevard called on him at the Jefferson. Crowley had good reason to call. He was one of {the eight, and he had not seen Ad- \niral Evans since the day after the fight. “The enemy played a dirty, low trick on us,” the Admiral said. “The army was making an attack on the other side of the fort, and the navy on the water side. As we were making the charge the enemy fired a dismantled gun 4s us, loaded with all sorts of rubbish, and it mowed my men down. “Iwas grazed across the chest the first time I was hit, but I wasn’t hurt. As I started again a sharpshooter on the fort plugged me in the leg. A fel- low named Sands bound it up, and I started again. The sharpshooter plugged. me in the other leg. I then drew my pistol and killed him—I had to do it, poor fellow. “One man set me on a coal shovel and tried to drag me off the field. He Was shot through the wrist. Another fellow was shot through the neck and killed as he was trying to carry me off. I was left lying on the field many hours. I was in a hole in the sand, with the fight going on right over me. “The tide came in at night, and the water got into my ears: I thought I would be drowned in that hole, but I managed to craw! out. “IT heard the chief surgeon of the hos- pital give orders at night that both my legs were to be cut off in the morning. Well, I didn’t sleep any that night. ex- pecting the surgeons to come with their knives. When they did come the next morning I drew my revolver and told them I would shoot the first man who undertook to cut off my legs.”’ Talked of Old Com They talked of comrades who had fell- en and comrades who lived through that fight to fight another day, and by and by it was time for Crowley to go. The Admiral gave him an autograph photograph of himself and they shook hands. = “T hope you live a thousand years, said the Admiral to Crowley: here when I am gone,” said Crowley te the Admiral.

was right with me when I was shot.’’ From talk of war and the fortunes of war, he turned to talk of peace. “IT am an advocate of peace,’’ he said. “IT have seen enough of war.| But I do not see any tendency among nations to get away from it. All the nations are getting ready to fight, and it looks to me like there is going to be a scrap be- fore the millennium. Somebody is going to be in for a good hammering, and I don’t want it to be the United States. ‘The way for the United States to keep down war is to be strong enougn to whip everybody else. If we are ready to fight at the drop of the hat nobody is going to attack us. With 48 battleships and their trimmings, 24 on each ocean, we would be well forti- fied against attack.”’ Saying which, Admiral Evans lighted another cigarette—the Rear Admiral is am incessant smoker of cigarettes. EC LET 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, gastritis, sluggish liver, etc., when a little lozenge of charcoal will cleanse the stettendh and make it pure and sweet. Do not drug yourself when a simple little natural charcoal made from fra- grant willow branches, sweetened with honey, 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 A box full of charcoal placed in a bed room will keep the air of such a room pure and sweet. A little charcoal lozenge dissolved on the tongue after meals will also keep the stomach fresh and clean. Charcoal is justly 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 a man charcoa]. 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 intestine*, and there meets other digestive fluids. the charcoa] holds the impurities and thus keeps them from the blood. Stuart's Charcoal Lozenges are made from pure willow. They ‘dre prepared fragrant by the use ‘of honey and sweetened so they please the taste and are easily dissolved. They have an enormous sale, thus stamping them with the approval of the public. Every d st sells them. 25 cents per box.

ere ener ee nes ine eee LONDONERS U0 NOT SCRAMBLE TD ENTER ARMY — War Scare and War Play Used by Jingoists, but Are Ineffective.

2600 RECRUITS ONLY

Militarists Are Arguing That, Compulsory Service Is Necessary. Special Cable to the Post-Dispatch and New York World. A «ties ty 1909, by the Press Pub. Co LONDON, Feb. 13.—The determined efforts of the Jingoists to fill the de- pleted ranks of the territorial army by means of the scare-producing qualities of Maj. Du Maurier’s war melodrama, “An Englishman’s Home," are being pursued by the militarist press with un- diminished and almost feverish vigor, but with dubious success. The Jingoists thought they would work up such a fear among the more suscepti- ble ones that they would cause a tre- mendous crush toward the recruiting stations. They have been thus far saily disappointed. It is a fact that the anti-German fee!- ing has been gaining ground, but it has not aroused the populace yet to the point of wholesale enlisting in the army. Eleven thousand men are needed to complete the equipment of the London territorial establishment. Few Londoners Enlist Even with the war talk at its height and Du Maurier’s play exciting London- ers to a high pitch, only 2600 men have been frightened sufficiently to offer themselves as recruits. This, despite ter- ritorlal marches all over London and the Jingoists doing their utmost to cause the populace to have nightmares of war. The failure of the Jingo campaign has set some people to thinking that such exhibitions, ‘tending to excite artificial panicky conditions, are out of place in a@ great nation and that recruiting by such methods must produce a strong reaction upon those responsible for the turmoil. Compulsory Service Urged. The militaristg,are turning this ar- gumént fo their own purposed. They say the present situation demonstrates to the people that it is impossible to main- tain the army forces at the required strength except by compulsory service. The fact that, even with an agitation of the kind now going on, Londoners will not volunteer freely to serve in the army, they offer as an argument that they ought ‘to be made to enlist, willy-nilly, so far as they are needed. While King Edward is doing all he can to impress Germany with his pa- cific intentions, the anti-German cam- paign is being pushed with redoubled activity, lest by bettering Anglo-German relations he should finally force the Jingoes into silence. The advocates of a powerful navy to keep all invaders at a respectable dis- tance from England’s shores are being styled the “Blue Water School.” Press: politicians whose s%le reliance is their capacity for establishing a permanent war pani¢e are known as the “Blue Funk Schoo!).”’ MAN-HATER WOULD NOT HAVE MASCULINE MONEY Only Coins Bearing the Head of the Queen Acceptable to Her.

LONDON, Feb. 4.—Miss Harriet Evans, an elderly spinster who died at Hackney was a confirmed man-hater. “She was so much against men that she would not have a coin with the King’s head on it,’ her landlady said. “If one was given to her she would throw it into the fire. She would only deal in money bearing Queen Victoria's head.” Miss Evans went to the office of a lo- cal newspaper some time ago, but re fused to enter it until a woman was sent to transact business with her.

PETERSBURG, Feb. 13.—The po- lice have issued a warrant for the ar- rest of Maxim Gorgy, the well-known Russian novelist. In the document Gor. ky is described as ‘a nishni-Novgorod house painter.” Maxim Gorky is in Italy, and recent dispatches have said that he purposed to reside permanently in Florence. This is not the first time Gorky has been in trouble with the Russian ay- thorities. He was arrested in Riga on Jan. 26, 1906, charged with being a mem-

‘ber of a revolutionary organization. For a time it was thought that his neck was in. danger, but-a little later he was somewhat contemptuously released by the Russian Government, though stil) kept under police surveillance. ‘He was anxious to be a martyr,” the auv- declared.

NEW PHESIDENT JOCKEY CLUB France’s Most Exclusive Coterie Elects as Its Chief the Duke de Monteszmon-Fezensac.

Special Correspondence From Paris Bureau of the Post-Dispatch, PARIS, Feb. 3.—The Jockey Club, which is the most exclusive’ club in France, and in some respects the most select club in the world, has just elected a new president, the Duke de Montes- quiou-Fezensac, who succeeds the late Duke de Doudeauville. Head of one of the preudest families of France (another member of which, Count Robert de Montesqguiou, is will remembered in. the United States as a lecturer and essayist), the Duke de Mon- tesquiou-Fezensac is a familiar figure in the fashionable life of the capital and is always present at important gather- ings at famous race courses near Paris. He is of average height, with snow white hair, but possesses a youthful car- riage and a good figure exquisitely clothed. The Jockey Club was founded in 1836, at an epoch when the fashionable world of France wished to emulate the English and the first president sefe the organiza- tion was an Englishman, Lord Henry Seymour, famous as ‘‘Lord L’Arsouille,”’ one of the celebrities of his time, noted as a “dandy.” The Duke Orleans and the Duke of Nemours were among the organizers. , It is the highest ambition of an aris- tocratic Frenchman to be a member of “the Jockey.” In recent times the Jockey Club has been singularly free from reproach, and when its members wish the excitement of risking their en- tire fortunes at bacarat they generally go elsewhere. The Duke de Doudeauville was presi- dent 2 years. The Duke de Montes- quiou-Fesensac was vice-president 14 years, and his elevation to the presi- dency was expected. FRENCH BABIES PUT END TO RACE SUICIDE SCARE For the First Time in Many Years the Stork Gets Ahead of the Grim Reaper. Special Correspondence From Paris Bureau of the Post-Dispatch. seth PARIS, Feb. 3.—Has the French bir rate taken a turn upward at last? For the first time for very many years the last statistics show a considerable in- crease. These cover the first six months of 1908, as half-yearly returns are now made. Compared with the first half of 1907 the corresponding period of last year denotes a remarkable improve- ment. In the first six months of 187 the death rate showed an excess of 5%,- 007 over the birth rate. If that propor- tion continued the French people must necessarily die out. But the corre- sponding period of 1908 has turned the tables. In those six months births ex- ceeded deaths by 11,666. The difference is due not only to the fact that the death rate was lowered from #7,000 to $90,000, but also to a net inerease of births, which rose from 402,000 to 411,000. Sociologists who have long the alarm of depopulation rejoice, #8¢ °TY that the tide has turned at last

Raymond are in despair since jAhe fascinating lady went te Paris. There she was joined by her husband, a Scotch millionaire, well known in New York. When Mrs. Raymond appeared at the Ritz Hotel such good’ judges of love liness as Prince Francis of Teck, Prince Mirsky, Lord Woodehouse and Ceunt Sehenyi chorused their respectful ap- probation, tersely but enthusiastically, thus: “She is a peach—a perfect peach.”’ In -whatever toilette Mrs. Raymond appears, she looks equally well, for she wears her clothes to perfection. She has blonde hair and an ivory-like com- plexion, which is illumined by _ great. violet eyes, and is tall, slender and graceful. Mrs. Raymond is Parisian borr, it is said, but, having French chic, she adds to it American vivacity and self-poise. From Paris the Raymonds go to Nice to pass the winter.

AMBASSADOR WHITE POPULAR IN PARIS Mrs. White Regains Strength and Probably Will Entertain Extensively Soon. .

Special Cable From the Paris Burese of the Post-Dispatch. PARIS, Feb. 13.—Americans' resi- dent in Paris are pleased at the pros- pect of social gayety at Ambassador White’s splendid mansion. Mrs. White (before -marriage Margaret Stuyve sant Rutherford) has not done much entertaining since her husband was transferred from Rome to Paris, be- cause of indisposition. But her recent sojourn on the Riviera benefited her health greatly and she has been seen in society much more than formerly. Mr. White is becoming popular in the American colony which is difficult to please. He was preceded by .rep- utation for exclusiveness, a trait which Americans living here were ready to resent, as they had become accustomed to the cordial democracy of Ambassador Porter. | But Mr. White has shown himself very friendly to Americans, and they have come to believe that his London reputation was unjustified.

R. and L. Electrics. The electric-driven vehicle, re- garded by many as most desirable for a number of uses, and particularly highly favored by women for making social calls, shopping tours and quiet runs through the parks and out into the neighboring country, will be seen at the Coliseum in a variety of mod- els. The last few years have seen a vast improvement in electric motor con- struct'on and a consequent increase in their use. Not long ago 40 miles was considered a good distance [to travel on one charging but the Rauch & Lang Co., whose cars are so well known here in St. Louis, now guar- antee double that mileage. The makers of Rauch & Lang ve- hicles pride themselves upon the qual- ity of their output. Beauty and re- finements of the highest type of carriage building are combined with mechanical perfection and electrical efficiency. From a technical point of view the R. & L. electrics have many fine fea- ‘ures which permit of the absolute

A car which makes a strong bid for the favor of those who are look- ng for an automobile of moderate cost is the Chalmers-Detroit “thirty,” offered as a touring car, runabout or tourabout at the same price. Though a newcomer, it proved its reliability with a 200-mile nonstdp run on last election day in many gections of the country, and another car was driven 208 miles a day for 100 consecutive days, making a total of 20,800 miles The car weighs 2000 pounds and has a wheel base of 110 inches Ball bearings of the annular type are used throughout. The power Plant is a unit and all working parts are in- closed in a single case, flooded with oil. The Reo.

ing car has a longer wheel base, giving more room in the tonneau, and it can also be had as a roadster, with [folding seat. The runabout likewise gives more than ever for the price charged. Both are equipped . with horizontal engines, a style of con- struction particularly serviceable in motor cars of this type.

Marmon Line.’ A few years ago there entered the automobile field a firm which for half a century had been engaged in the building of the finest grade ma- chinery. Their purpose was to bring into the manufacture of motor cars all the resources of their big plant and the knowledge and experience they had accumulated in metal worcing in that time. ‘That car is known as the Marmon, and it is one which in the last year or two has made quité a stir in the automobile/ world. For 1909 two types are shown, a “thirty- two” and a “fifty,” both of which combine the same general mechanical features. Both cars have powerful four-cylinder motors, water cooled, quiet and smooth running, and par- ticularly simple and easy of access. A new feature th's year is an improved rear axle cunstruction, bra: e system, and the method of carrying the trans- mission on the axle. The body de- sign is particularly pleasing. ———_anemet Mitchell Models. The Mitchell—or, to use their own slogan, the “show me” car—will be seen at the Coliseum in all its mod- els. The makers of this automobile have been in the business eight years. Their leader this year is a 30-horse- power touring car with 105-inch wheel base, 32x4-inch wheels and an ignition system which includes -

JACKSON MODEL" snappy, powerful runabout of 20 horsepower and a big sgeven-passen- ger touring car of 40 horsepower. The makers of the Mitchell put particular stress upon the simplicity with which the'r cars are construct- ed and of their strength and finish. Since selling their first ear, $11,- 000,000 worth of MitcheRs have been marketed. The factory's floor space two years ago was 25.0) square feet. Today it is 10 times as large. = § Studebaker Electrics. The increasing sentiment in favor of electric cars, particularly for cer- tain kinds of work for wh‘ch it is pre- eminently adapted, is one of the signs of the times. It can be expected, therefore, that the Studebaker line of electrically propelled vehicles will at- tract a large share of attention at the Coliseum show. The name Studebaker, in. conn@ction with vehicles, is one that has been known to mure than one generation. and its product in the electric class in no way falis below the reputation earned by this firm in other } tes described as electrically and mechan- leally perfect, these cars are in all ‘he variety of bodies known to the trade. are furthermore a treat to the eye of the arti.t. — ‘ In commercial vehicles, also, the Studebaker line is especially com- plete and any business man who has the trucking problem_to master will find something of personal interest in the space allotted fo this display. Moon Motor Cars. The Moon Motor Car Co. of St. Louls, wh cars attracted such fa- vorable n : recent show

ered enough to be more than equal to the demands of touring over the roughest roads, and constructed with all the care possible, these cars are bound to attract the attention of the most critical. The five-passenger touring car for ‘(909 weighs but 2600 pounds. It has : whe:! base of 112 tpches and frame of steel. Wheels are large—f4 inches —with tires in proportion. There are four cylinders, 41-2x41-2, and the engine is conservatively rated at 32. horsepower. Valves are.in the head, operated by overhtad cam shaft. Ignition includes a Bosch high-ten- sion system and lubrication is both by force feed and auxiliary splash. Four speeds ahead and revefse are the poss'bilit‘es cf the transmission and the clutch has the unusual num- ber of 51 discs.* A genuine honey- comb radiator and centrifugal pump provide the cooling system, In addi- tion to fan cast in fly wheel.

Descriptions of these cars, and details of their construction, follow: American Mors. NE of the very popular line of cars made in St. Louis is the American Mors, built by the St. Louis Car Co. at its immense plant in North St. Louis. In se- lecting the French Mois, a car cf highest reputation on the continent, for its type of product, the St. Louis company gave due consideration to its adaptability to American road conditions. The makers now point to.a number of severe tésts over the roughest roads’ to prove the wisdom of their choice. The factory itself at 5200 North Second street is equipped with the latest and finest machinery, much of it of special design,’ for producing the many parts of the Mors cars. Every part of the car is interchange- able, and the most advanced methods are employed to secure the greatest degree of accuracy. : * ‘The material entering into the con- struction of the car has been careful- ly selected from the markets of the world; cylinders, pistons, crank shafts and magnetos have been im- ported from France, from the same makers who supply the Mors com- ‘pany: Only the highest grade of chrome-nickel steel is used. Hess- Bright ball bearings are used Mhroughout. Every detail of the

“American Mors” is finished and as- sembled in St. Louis. After the motor is assembled it is taken to the testing department and there given a very thorough and com- plete test. To prove the efficiency of the motor a generator is used which furnishes electric current to re- Sistances and the reading of the volt meter and ammeter is taken from the switch board and from this read- ing is known exactly just what the motor is doing every. minute during the test. The motor is run the first day on an empty load, the second day on half-load and ihe third day, for a period of six hours, under full load. After it has been proven that the mo- tor is capable of withstanding the test it is looxed over and sent to the assembling department, to be mount- ed into the chassis or running gear. From here it goes on the road for a test of not less than 150 miles. After this road test the car is turned over to the inspection department, where it is disassembled and inspected and then reassembled and sent to the body department. After the body has been mounted and the car is com- plete it is given a road test of 50 miles. Naturally, of course, the Mors is made in evéry variety of body and design known to the automobile

The type B car finished with an fect score, excent for a little minor spring trouble that in no way inter- fered with its finishing. The Morris Park Endurance Road Test Race in 1907—-The American Mors won these races “hands down” and without a _ single adjustment needed afterwards—in these twvo “car-breaking races’”,it won the 10- mile event. and won the 30-mile event against an entry of five foreign and American cars of higher horse- power—many cars thought it inad- visable to enter. The Long Island Automobile Club Economy Run in 1907—The Ameri- can Mors entered a seven-passenger Limousine in the Long Island Auto Club Economy Run. It was the enly Limousine entered. The run was 242 miles long,.. Car- rying seven passengers, this Limous- ine consumed only .21% gallons of gasoline. It consumed only 4% quarts of oil. The ccst of carrying these seven passengers was only 92 cents for each passenger, for the entire round trip. There are 75 American Mors cars in daily service in this city and about 800 have been sold in other cities in the United States. Walter J. Miller is the active manager of the Mors factory, with Harry McDonald sales manager. The officers of the automo- bile department of the St. Louis Car Co. are: George J. Kobusch, presi- dent: Warner S. McCall, vice-presi- dent. . The Moon Motor Car Co., builders of the, Moon ear, is one of the most highly successful ,buiMers of auto- mobiles in the United States. This factory was opened in the fall of 1905 The first model. was discontinued in 1907 and the present Moon, designed by Louis P. Moers, was substituted. The company has continually made improvements on this model, until to- day it is recognized as one of the best cars in the country. Joseph W. Moon, the president of this company, who has had long years of experience if the building of carriages and bug- gies, now has added the capstone of success to his fortune in giving to the public a reliable automobile. Stewart McDonald, vice-president, and E. J. Moon, sales manager, are two of the most active forces in this company’s organization. Ashley D. Scott, sales manager for the Weber Implement Co., agents for the Mitchell cars, figured conspicu- ously in the early days of the auto- mobile development in St. Louis. Mr. Scott built-and operated an electric car, With the co-operation of his brother, Semple Scott. They claim that this car was built in 1892, and in 1893 they had it running on the streets. It was transformed from an old-fashioned tricycle, the single front whgl having been removed and two wheels substituted. They used a storage battery of their owt make and also built a motor for the driving START AND GROWTH OF AUTO INDUSTRY IN ST. LOUIS

The perfected electric automobile is what people have been waiting for— something that combined moderate speed with endurance and easy con- trol, particularly for city use. The city of Cleveland has approxi- mately 1200 electric automobiles of the pleasure type on its streets—nine out of ten of which are driven by women. Nearly three ‘ears ago the Union Electric Light and Power Co., hav- ing learned that there were less than twenty of this class of vehicle in use m St. Louis, became convinced that it was due to the fact that our city afforded inadequate ‘facilities for charging, repairing :.nd caring for automobiles of electric type. With characteristic energy and foresight, they proceeded to bring about a new set of conditions to stimulate’ the development of the use of these splen- did machines. Being very large users of electric storage batteries in lis lighting busi- ness (having installed end in opera- tien in its. substations thousands of horsepower of storage batteries con- structed upon exactly the game prin- ciple as the automobile storage bat- tery), it felt that a highly modern electric garage, served with a well- organized a..d disciplined force, skilled in the erection, repair, care und maintenance of storage batteries, would completely change all the con- ditions hitherto surrounding the sale and use of electric automobiles. This action on the part of the Union Company has resulted in the changed conditions that may be seen every day in the increased use of elec- trics, nearly 250 of which are now in daily use in St. Louis. Their garage, located at Morgan street and Vandeventer avenue, is re- served and used exclusively for elec- trics and as the number of these ma- chines increase they will erect two others—one in the West End and one on the South Side. In order to further complete and round out the conditions that would stimulate the growth and use of elec- trics, they found it necessary to offer to the public automobiles for sale, of a character and ; -ade that would se- cure and retain the confidence of the people, in the many advantages of pleasure electrics. In the Studebaker and Rauch & Lang line of machines they have an assortment that takes in everything in the pleasure vehicle line, from the runabout to the handsome station wagon, and in the business delivery rag the department store de- ‘ery wagon to th r br ry seal e heavy hrewery H. F. Borbein was the first manu- facturer to build automobile parts, such as running gears, wheels, bodies. axles and steering devices. He started in a building at the corner of Ninth and Clark avenue. in 1899. In 1900 he removed to larger quar- ters at 1110 Cass avenue. Mr. Borbein, in fact, was about the first manufacturer of running gears in America. His company, styled the Borbein Auto Co., is now located in its own building at 2109 N. Ninth powerful mate. Probably its most dis- tinctive feature, so far as the power plant is concerned, is the dual igni- tion system, consisting of dry cells on one side and Nemy magneto, with single vibrator coil, on the other. ———

Anheuser-Busch Brewery has Fifty-two Electric and Gasoline Vehicles, Its Own Garage Covering a City Block and Complete Repair Shops---The Money re ee eee the Anheuser- F Busch Brewing Association of St. Louis started what was then to them an experiment in the horseless delivery of their product and the hauling of heavy loads of freight by motive power—the com- wercial truck. The association started with some twenty electric vehicles. The first year’s use of this modern means of hauling did not prove profitable, for the simple reason that the garage OUR years ago ‘wherein the vehicles were kept in or- der was not then arranged on a SYS- tematic basis. At that time the com- pany did not become discouraged with the experiment, but charged 1p the loss on the operation of the horse- less rigs to advertising expense, for at that time the use of this means of delivery all over the city attracted a great deal of interested attention. People were then instantly at- tracted at the sight of elec- tric commercial delivery trucks, beau- tifully painted, and moved under their ‘ own power and passing through the streets loaded with heavy consign- ments of a brew known all over the world.

ONL -/TALF TON ELECTRIC * BOLTLE GELF DELIVERY TRUCK.

In their own wagon works and the machine shop of the garage the com- pany has built within the past three years seven complete electric trucks. The chassis and the working parts, including batteries and motors, were built in their own machine shop, while the bodies were built and

painted in the company’s large wag- on works. | The garage has an electric switch board with 55 individual charging re- ostats, equipped with separate amme- ters and circuit breakers. Here every evening trucks are recharged. The five-ton trucks will cover 25 tO

miles on one charging; the one and one-half and three ton delivery wag- ons, 35 miles on one charging. The system of keeping track of the regular charging of electrics and the necessary repairs on them is one of the most highly perfected in any of the largest garages in the country. | By the most perfect system this large commercial garage is making a profi- table showing for the Anheuser-Busch Brewing Association. While the cost per truck is higher than a large de- livery wagon drawn by horses, vet from the fact that the company se-

cures more mileage and speed and can

carrier heavier loads, they figure true economy by the use of both electric and gasoline trucks. They also fig- ure as an important item of economy the saving of room in the barn, on the streets and when loading at the store house and _ stations.

3 MATERIAL AND DESIGN OF THE CAR MADE IN AMERICAN FACTORIES BY HOWARD E. COFFIN, Chairman of Committee on Tests, A. L. A. M. The American engineer who spends some length of time abroad, with his eyes and ears open, will felicitatc himself on being an American, and be glad that since he must bvild mo- tor cars, he can do so with the aic of the highest development of fac- tory, manufacturing and machine- tool practice in the world, and with the very comfortable feeling that after the cars are built they can b: disposed of in a home market that is a safe and steady one, dependent in no way upon the uncertainties of un- fair competition or the whims of the tariff reform of any other country. ‘The matters of material and work- manship do not enter into this equa- tion at all. We have the finest wor«- men in the world in America. They are not merely machines perfected in the performance of ce~tain labor, but have the advantage of the knowledge that a lively exercise of their brains will be appreciated by their employ- ers. Nowhere in Europe can te found the “suggestion box” or any other of the several systems common to American shop practice, and through which is added to the mutual benefit of the employe and the em- ployer the advantage of the observ- ant eye and the active brain of the “man behind the bench.”’ Savannah Small Car Race. Glance for a moment at the Sa- vannah result—a fore'‘gn car of a make perhaps acknowledged abroad to be the equal of any car there built —this particular car—a special] one, built for racing, lightened even to the extreme extent of frame drilled full of holes, fresh from tests and trials in

Conditions in This Country Which Give Makers Advan- tages Not Possible on the Continent. Sngland, and sent here in perfect ondition in ample time to work out over the course—this car, in a dis- cance of 196 miles and a total elapsed ime of 3h. 43m. 33s., gained a total of 6m. 12s. over its nearest competi- tor, an American stock chassis, and 10m. 22s. over its next competitor, also an American stock chassis. It is a matter of record how much de- lay from tire and other trouble was experienced during the race by the three cars. The behavior of the other foreign cars is also a matter of record. Even at Savannah, where leeway was given the maker along lines of special construction, insufficient time was allowed between the dates of the announcement and the running of the event, to permit of the design, con- struction and test of any special ra- cing car. It is conceded that the winning car ran a beautiful race. It must also be conceded that the. American cars finishing second and third were both faster than the winner, and that their delays were occasioned by in- sufficient or improper preparation, in one case at least (the third). It must also be considered that to make the third car eligible in the event, it was necessary to reduce the bore of the cylinders, which Was done witb- out in any way lightening the stock chassis to keep pace with this reduc- tion of power, all of which must have ‘past

very materially affected the result. However, this car made the fastest lap (56 miles per hour)—was in bet- ‘er running condition at the end of the run than at the beginning, and was immediately entered in other events in the South without the leas. overhauling. Interchange of Ides. In the interchange of ideas lies the true source Of progress; and _ the American engineer (and with him the American car) ‘is as sure to excel the European as that the day will fol- low ihe night. Nor is this time in the distant future.’ If the develop- ment within the industry, for the 10 years in France, Germany, Italy, England ahd the States be rep- resented by curves, it will be found that the crossing of the lines has been reached. Yankee genius may be depended upon to see to it that the curve of American progress is never recrossed. Not very Many years ago, here in the States, it was practically impos- sible for a member of the engineer- ing staff of one concern to pay a visit to the works of a competitor, unless he went in disguise or under false pretenses.' What a difference now, when a visiting engineer is free- ly, courteously and willingly shown through every nook and corner of a competitor’s plant, and sent away with a feeling that the “latch string is always out.” A comparison of this attitude with the spirit of suspicion that pervades the atmosphere of the foreign shops and management shows a monument to the progressive spirit of the American industry that is chargeable directly and indisputably to the first of our organizations of motor car engineers, the mechanical branch of the A. L. A. M.

Baker-E lectrice, Ten years of experience in the building of electric vehicles, in these days of rapid development of the mo- tor car industry, makes one almost a patriarch. The present year will complete a decade for the Baker elec- trics, and in that time the business they represent has developed from infancy to one of gigantic stature. Baker cars are styled “the aristocrats of motordom,” and the significance of the phrase will be demonstrated at the display in the Coliseum. These cars represent the latest improve- ments in electrical propulsion. They are made in a great variety of bodies, coupe, stanhope, surrey, Victoria, run- about, brougham and landaulet. Par- ticular stress is put upon their effi- ciency and mileage capacity.

Ford Cars. A four-cylinder touring car of 20 horsepower and carrying five pas- sengers, sold at a price which, a few years ago, would have been incon- ceivable, is the offering of the Ford Motor Co. The factory at Detroit ex- pects to market about 24,000 of these cars in various models, this coming vear, and it is the manufacture of such a quantity, the company ex- plains, which permits the building of a serviceable automobile at the price charged. The cylinders are cast in one block, with water jackets and upper half of crank case integral. Valves are all on one side. Ignition is by magneto generator, ingeniously having direct connection with the engine drive. The wheel base is 100 inches and the wheels are 30 inches in diameter, with three-inch tires forward and three-and-a-half-inch rear. The new alloy, vanadium, is used largely in the steel for shafts, gears, final drive and axles. Transmission is of a new planetary type and the clutch is of multiple steel discs run- ning in oil. The whole power magneto, clutch and change gear mechanism is cleverly designed in one unit forward. On the same chas- sis can be had runabout, touring car, town car, inside-driven coupe and taximeter cab. plant, engine,

Matheson ‘“‘Six.”’ One of the novelties at the show, in the line of a standard car, will be the six-cylinder Matheson, an en- tirely new product and design for 1909. Before putting this car on the market the makers tried it out for hearly a year and now put it before the public not as an experiment but as a tested product. The new Six embodies a number of features not previously incorporat- ed in Matheson cars. It uses six cylinders, cast in pairs, which de- velop 50 horsepower. The cylinder measurements are four and one-half by five-inch stroke. The cam shaft is now located with- in the crank case and although valves in the head are retained they are actuated by lift rods. Another important feature is the fitting up a dual high-tension ignition system, which is new to Matheson cars. There ig.a gear driven magneto, with bat- tery and cylindrical coil on the dash, which, by pressure of a button in con- junction wich a supplementary make- and-break device on the magneto, produces a spark for the starter, after which the regular magneto system is switched on. ; ee The Overland. Another car comparatively new (oO St. Louis, but popular in other: sec- tions of the country where it has enjoyed a considerable vogue is the Overland. This again is an automobile of low price, which offers a surpris‘ngly large number of at- tractive details in finish and construc- tion. It is commodious looking, has four cylinders of 30 horsepower, Remy magneto, thermo-syphon cir- culation, shaft drive and planetary transmission. Larger models are also made. Tires of ample size are a dis- tinguishing feature of this line. Air-Cooled Franklins. The leading exponent of the air- cooled engine, the Franklin, has won a number of contests this winter. In the Worcester, Mass., endurance run it defeated 13 competitors. In the Glidden tour, the Bretton Woods en- durance run and in the Chicago 1000- mile. reliability contest the Franklin achieved perfect scores. * The absence of a water-cooling system, with its consequent reduction in weight, is a point strongly urged in favor of Franklins.

EE. 7. Birdsall, M. E., L. A. M ‘N THE early days of the automo- bile industrv in the United States little or n@hing was known of the properties required in the mate- rials of construction. For example: Alumipv.n was a novelty, castiron and bronze were used for the gear wheels of the speed-change mech anism; roller bearings having un- hardened rolls operated in soft axl ‘tubes as a bearing for soft steel solid axles: bronze and malleable iron were the harden- ing and grinding of crankshafts and many other pats were un’ nown; brakes were lined with wood blocks; any yellow metal for bearings was “bronze.” regardless of its composi- ‘case harden- ing,” sometimes .001 inch dee#, some- times more, but alWays an indefinite amount. Heat treatment, allov hardening as we know them today vere practically unknown. Structural steel; bar, plate and rod stock; woods of various kinds; cast iron; brass and bronze of the ordinary “merchant” shapes and qualities were alone avail- @ble for the automobile builder. in Europe, on the other hand, the requirements, of foreizn gunmakers. engine builders and cthers had cre- ated a demand for special steels and bronzes. + From. the beginning of the automo- bile industry in France the mach'‘nes were entered in races and other com- petitions that developed in a few hours weaknesses and shortcomings of design in materials that would use. steels and have taken months of ordinary i we

IES increasing the size ilone of a weak part to make it trong enough was not always the emedy, or even always feasible, the manufacturers naturally turned to the steel makers for better materials. Right here another’ difference be- ‘ween the United States and Europe shonld be noted. In ‘the United jtates the steel ma*ers wanted “ton- rave,” That is, mut a special grede of metal.and set up the rolls to shape it unless an or- der for many thousands of tons was vlaced. Whereas, in Europe, the steel mills would tae an order fur a few hundred pounds of a steel of special composition. The net resvit was that the French automobile builders, by races that tested the materials and design of ronstruction, by the facility and pos- s‘bility of procuring proper materials, by cleverness in design and by keen competition, soon dis anced all other nations in the n‘oduc’icn of cars that were reliable, fast and dependable. A concrete example of the above is furnished by the aciual experience of one of the early American manufac- turers, who conceived the idea of building in this country an evact copy of a well-known and _ successful “rench car. - After the firgt car was built the testing out proved that the American tubing used in the frame had only about one-half the strength and stiffness of the tubing used in the model. The gears would not stand up under the work and the wearing qualities and general durability of the entire machine were far below the French model. 4 : w ‘ A AMERICA’S BEST PNEUMATIC TIRES OWNERS DEMAND THEM mobile cars. nil Experienced aut> the equipment for their catise less trouble than old” tire which may be offered, large tire bills, assure safety owners tnatist They know that these tires outwear and others, who have thoerough!y tried ai! feund eut, rather Continental and upon Continental tires as Tt is wise to take the advice of these then to accept “any tires will do away with obviate trouble and worry.

solid tires, but here the rubber tire still reigns supreme and gives prom- ise of continuance. Having this main problem disposed of, and, it might be said, settled by usage, the manufac.urer has turned to the question of ready-repair, and in the case of the large, heavy auto- mobile tire, this, after various vicis- situdes, hes settled down to the ques- ion of quickly remeving the tire and epairing it or replacing it. The re lacing bes in fact become essential hbecause.of the increased use and the great prospects in the near future of 1utomobiles for service where “time is money.” Having narrowed down to the re placement of tires, the question has been one of taking the tire off and putting a new one on and inflating t or carrying an extra, ready inflates ind equipped with a rim so that i! ‘an be substituted for a deflated tire in the quickest possible time. The uestion of quickly removing tires o1 rims and replacing and blowing them up has involved the design of innum- -rable quick detachable rims. The entire replacement of a ready-inflated tire has involved the question of de- mountable rims which can also be quickly remounted upon a wheel. It is true that a great variety of devices and designs have sprung from the fertile brain of the inventor, in- volving such ideas as complete re- »ylacing of a wheel, as well as the at- taching of a separate tire and rim without taking off the ruptured or in- jured tire. Eut for the present and for general consideration, the quick- detachable rim and the demountable rim are the practical, live problems of mutual. interest to the tire and automobile manufacturer at the pres- ent date. The quic-detachable rim is now be- ing thoroughly tried out in several forms, any one of which promises to establish superiority which will be recognized in due time by its general or possible universal ad@option, a mil- lenium in this detail of the multitudi- nous ramifications of the industry, which is loo’ ed forward to anxiously by all, including the 200,000 and more users of automobiles in the United States, and frequently more desired by their friends or the users of auto- mobiles for hire. The demountable rim is, therefore, left for prime consideration at this very moment. It is generally accept- ed that the quick-detachable tire has its field and the demountable tire its field. It is yossible, however, that some very advantageous combination of the two will be the solution of the vexed problem. Years ago in the bicycle days, when the question of cushion tires or pneu- matic tires was the live issue. the single tube tire Was supreme and the question of securing it to the rim re- ceived much time and study: in fact. the exact nature of the shellac used to attach these tires to wooden or other bicycle rims and the method of attaching them were considered val- uable items in the knowledge of bi- cycle construction. The clincher tire in those days received little more con- sideration than a double-tube tire. with an outer casing attached in much the same way as a single tube tire or hose pipe. In 1899 the construction of numer- ous heavy ‘automobiles caused a sud- den activity in the development of very heavy pneumatic tires. which sepaited in such stiff walls and beads in clincher construction as to necessi- tate the development of attaching means to readily handle replacements and repairs. Constant development. however, has resulted in a deep-seat- ed belief in the advantage of the simplest form of single- piece clincher rim, a band of metal with each edge turned up to hold the clinch or bead of the tire casing, and the use of some means which will securely hold that rim on the felly band of a wheel in a manner which will be, in the first place, secure; secondly, will permit ready removal, and, thirdly, will be simple and cheap in construction and not involve numerous small parts frequently termed by the practical man as. “gimcracks.”’ pec Taagheard in a demountable rim ere is & 1@ Sule ifige has become rec sor ne fips — w of the different use of Vehicles.

On general pleasure portgnt as a ¢ “necessarily be the most readily “freeze,” but will permit ready re- moval even after a rim has been on a wheel one or many months with- out any attention. The racing of automobiles has ‘rought about many types of quick- demountable rims, but the details es- sential for quick removal have not always afforded the best results for other class of use.

All these considerations, and » thers too numerous to mention im his brief review of the subject, have ‘ow brought before tne public at the utomobile show of 1909 a startling variety of structures, in almost all of which there are one or more features of unquestioned merit. It would appear from the time and money that have been spent on the yroblem that the early part of 1909 is likely to see combinatioris of the sev- 2ral meritorious features of different designs, to produce a generally, or even universally accepted form of de- mountable rim. On the other hand, he indications wou!d leave one econ- versant with the dreams of many in- ventors to believe that there is still the possibility of a form of demount- able rim quite different from the at- ‘empts of the past presenting itseif. When Springs Creak, Here’s © 17 a Tip Worth Remember

Many cars squeak distressingly on rough roads, and the owners are often puzzled, as they know that all ‘the spring pins are properly lubri- sated. What the do not seem to ecognize is that the majority of ears have springs which from time to time require lubrication between the plates ‘Yr leaves of which they are com wsed. If yon have a car whieb squeaks mysteriously, first of all sat- isfy yourself that it is not what, for want of a better term, we may call a mechanical squeak. That is, assure yourself it is vot caused by, say,/ ap unlubricated universal joint or want of oil at the clutch collar. If the springs are dry, the result will probably be a most distressing “horus of squeaks, and no‘hing can be done to stop them while the weight is on the springs. The thing to do is to take a couple vf jacks and put them under the svar so that the weight is lifted off the springs.

HOW SOME OF THE TUNNELS VER since the Messina earthqua’ residents of the western half of St. Louis have been alarmed by phenomena of frequent recur- rence which they have ascribed to s@¢ismic shocks. Many a householder, in the district bounded by > )** Natural Bridge road and the Gravois road, and t ct tee wy OEE ~~ Se > . au rae +S RR NO

% ‘by Grand avenue and the western city limits, has been startled as he sat in his home by the reeling of a statuette on its pedestal, the dancing of &= vase on the mantel, the rattling of pictures against the walls, and the sudden chiming °f pendants on the chandeliers. He has glanced up nervously from his newspaper, with its vivid narrative of the Sicilian disaster, in a certainty that the house seismographs were recording the outer tremors ofan earthquake. A few days ago the police of the Mounted Sta- tion in Forest Park observed what they believed to he a heavy earthquake shock, which rocked the station on its foundations, according to the report of Capt. O’Brien to the Chief of Police. From the tall water towers in North and South ot. Louis came reports of .vibrating walls and tinkling window panes. Tables and chairs in the Mounted Station danced, and Capt. O’Brien, whose hand lay on his desk, felt it prickle with the vibration of the fibers of the wood. In residenccs in the West End, the houses were felt to shake, the beds swayed beneath those lying awake in the early morning, and windows and walls quivered. But man, not nature, is the author of the min- lature oscillations of the earth’s crust which the St. Louisan feels when his chair leaps slightly be- neath him and his hands, resting on the arms, tingle as if from a weak electric shock. Deep in the earth, delving in the 100 miles of tunnels which honeycomb the hidden strata of thousands of acres on the west and southwest edges of the city, sappers and miners in the great clay deposits are setting off charges of dynamite, whose detonations, quivering along the bed of sandstone beneath the city, often produce the effect of a distant earthquake. The sandstone stratum, which caps the veins of clay, acts as a wire in transmitting the “long- distance” messages of the underground explos- ‘ons. The vibrations are felt most powerfully along the direction of the shaft, but the reverse tremors are sometimes faintly recorded a mile away by the stopping of a clock. The waves seem to travel unbroken until they encounter a subterranean electric current, or a “fault” or displacement of the stratum. Then they may be deflected upward or downward, accord- Ine to the nature of the interference. When shunted upwards, they may reach the foundations of habitations and set them to trembling. These artificial shocks are often experienced at night, when the city lies in quiet. In order to reach the rich beds of fire clay which underlie the city, shafts. from 60 to 200 feet deep, have been sunk through the surface soil and the sandstone covering into the clay veins. Following the windings of the veins, tunnels branch out from the shaft and wriggle away for miles in every direction, now rising towards the surface and now plunging deep below it, but al- ways pursuing the veing of valuable clay. The process is much like coal mining. Dyna- mite is used to rend the clay from its bed, and AUN "itt Ms 6.4 ess CL. SHADED PORTION INDICATES CLAY

the “mud’”’ is then loaded on trams diawn by mules, transported back to the shafts and lifted into the air, where grinders, compressors and kilns await it. Every explosion in one of these mines starts with a roar of sound, but this is lost within the first thousand yards or so, when the waves con- tinue silently until they are registered miles away, as a vibration by some “receiver,” in the form of a vase or piano string, perhaps, which intercepts them. In boring the famous Simplon tunnel through the Alps, workmen 1000 yards away from the blasts could not hear their thunder, but were notified of their occurrence by a painful con- cussion of the ear drums. There was something uncanny in this noiseless attack. Whenever there is a great earthquake its trem- ors are felt, with more or less force, all over the world. Nervousness here over the Sicilian disas- ter is not wholly illogical, for at the time of the tremendous New Madrid earthquake in 1811, the channel of the Mississippi River was wrenched and distorted for 100 miles and whole Sout heastern counties dropped below the level of the river, which buri d forests and turned plains into lakes as if by magic. Mining experts say that the speed with which the vibration of an explosive travels underground is about as rapid as the flight. of sound waves through the air, or 1090 feet a.second. The rate is far from constant, however, as the same blast has been recorded as a slight and as a sharp shock in different parts of the city at about the same distance from the center of disturbance. Some kinds of strata are better carriers than others. Rock unbroken by splitting or by a severe tilting of the stratum, carries the “message” &@ mee Pe ~ with greater force. ows Of @ miner’s hammer or the pounding of an air drill 1000 feet under the eieaea have sometimes been heard nearly a mile through in- , tervening rock. At that distance, the hammer beat was refined to faintness of a watch tick. r - oot bein, ee Saat : re 4 =i - ee Ps . 7 ps pre Se hb - r @F z ‘ ‘ c . : — + a * Be: Se me - “ ae > Pt. il ten > « geek aa Par” ee . ae a Pit k Pid sa pan a hs a Se — on Sek eae ok ie Ss; ek eee ‘i 1 La ee a ok a a» . 7 P . ‘ /, / f “NY Us, caf) 4, : Lf} s . : ‘fy tj ‘ fe . ie J v hes a aie 2h gai be oe i , ~— st } It is possible, therefore, that some of tne un-»% usually severe shocks felt in S . Louis homes from explosions in the clay mines may have been trans- mitted, for a portion of the distance at least, by subterraneous streams. Scientific speculators have fancied that the slight tremors such as radiate from an explosion of dynamite in the depths of the earth might be utilized in the prediction of earthquakes. It is believed that heralding the gigantic cataclysms there are forewarning vibrations, as when the roof of some vast subterranean cavern, straining under the weight of the strata above it, begins to creak and bend preliminary to collapsing under its burden. These strainings of supernatural force must, it is believed, send in all directions warnings of the coming disaster. Again and again, it is declared, Nature has telegraphed and telephoned man along her wires of rock strata that she is preparing changes in the foundations of the earth, but he does not answer the ‘phone until after the up- heaval has occurred. Instruments properly delicate, connected with the underground strata in regions where earth- quakes occur, would, perhaps, be able to warn man when some titanic change is at hand far down in the earth, in time for him to flee from the approaching doom. Though science can predict the coming of a comet hundreds of years in advance and discover a new planet before it is seen, it is not yet able to predict convulsions upon the earth, the home of man. Prof. T. A. Jaggar Ir. of the Massachusetts In- stitute of Technology, has just written: “It is a reproach that this higher study of earth has not ™ , 7 + ‘ a nae " re ant. an > > ‘ - * 9; Siam mn ¥ + bs eo eT ae P. * i - . + ae. = ae » 4 iru to = ai ren bg ee = eK, a 3 a t AS 2: % 0 eh > ROA eee ate ~ z a er L253 Been a! wee Ba Ags art: ghee Baa oe , a i et tet S fe n> bi a3 eh ree a = ~s 3 agesX. ict aes 3 ta = .. ~ ae ‘ere ® jx Fae Lie me % ean, See < 7 i ~ heen developed.” He imagined the appearance of a Martian astronomer at the recent convention of American geologists at Baltimore, and his amaze- ment at learning the abyss between man’s exact knowledge of the skies and his ignorance of the globe on which he dwells. “Rut you live on the earth and must meet every crisis in its life; cam you foretell nothing about them?” is the way Prof. Jaggar voices the aston- ishment of the Martian visitor. “Well, we don’t think of it in that way,” is the answer put into the mouths of the American geologists: “We treat the earth historically, and make notes,and use a hammer and compass, and are very much interested in the bones of Ku- rassic reptiles and in making maps of the rocks.” When a volcanic eruption or an earthquake: hap- pens, we send a geologist, says the professor, to study the results, and he writes a learned report.

Sherlock Holmes Jr Tells About the “Mail Order Swindle,” the “Hunting Case Watch Fraud,” the “Umbrella Fake’ and the Bogus Theatrical Agency---Women Young and Old -Warned Against a Band of Smooth Impostors BY SHERLOCK HOLMES JR. [) sears the past ten or fifteen has vears the mail order business tions in assumed gigantic propor- ihe United States, and it bade sroved a vertiable boon to per- ons residing in the ru-al districts wid small towns, as they are thus en- abled, by means of the {illustrated ca't- nlegue, to puré¢hase goods at city prices which could not be bought in their home town at all, or else would bea sold at exorbitant rates. The enormous volume of business done by well-known mail order houses c:adually grew from a small begin- demonstrates the ning and plainly yopeibitities of this method of sell'ng merchandise when conducted in a BoUAre manner. Such legitimate firms are a benefit ‘to the community, as they give the consumer a fair return for his money, end give the country resident an eguel opportunity with his city brether to buy his goods at the low- es! possible figure. But as all good things are imitated, so the mail order business has been imitated’ by a class of men who are nothing more than common grafters, and whe not only do not return full valve for the money they recetve, but in many idstances make no return at nll. lt is with these fake concerns that this story has to deal, and I shall en- deavyor 10 expose some of the methods which they employ to skin the credu: lous public. One of the principal reasons why so many grafters have gone into the fake mail order business is because it doesn't require much capital to start up, and the returns always bring a laree profit on the investment and sometimes it is nearly all profit. HE RENTS AN OFFICE. The first thing the grafter does is to rent an office, although there have been cases known where the business Was carried on in an ordinary fur- nished room house. After’ renting an office he secures “cuts” or electrotypes of gold watches, scarfpins, ear drops, rings, brooches and other articles, and, of course, these “cuts” always represent ihe articles to be the very finest quai- ity and possessing great value. The next step he takes is to put an “ec in all the country newspapers. pod perfodicals having a rural ciren- Miion, accompanted by a “cut” illus- trating a fine “gold watch,” which te States will be sent by mail, postage prepaid, upon receipt of $2.98, or pome such absurd price. There is always a “catch” in the wording of the “ad,” as, for instance. he merely says “gold watch” and not “solid gold,” and if it happens to be a searft pin, he only says it fs a “mag- niffeent brilliant” or “sparkling gem,” but is careful not to state in words that it is a “genuine diamond,” al- though evidently wishing to convey that impression to the simple coun- Tyas try folks who read the advertise- ment. if he deliberately misrepresented his goods and claimed them to be penuine when they Were not, he could be prosecuted by the Government for using the mails to defraud. So, the only way he can get around this is by carefully wording his “ads” so as io state through inference that which . > be durex not state openly. Many readers, thinking they are > going to get a solid gold watch, or at feast a 20-year filled case, send him © the $2.98, or whatever price he asks, ae ‘ i Seas 2 Q sy Sa On eae : sae Wrens) te ;

and in return, receive a cheap electro- plated case, containing a poor quality Swiss or American movement. The case usually turns green in a couple of weeks, and the watch only runs’ by fits and starts, so that the money spent for it has been thrown away, as the article is of no use to the purchaser. In the case of the “diamond” scarfpin, you receive for your money a common rhinestone pin, such as could be bought from any street fak- er for 10 cents or ‘“‘two bits’ at the most, stuck on a piece of tissue pa- per or a card, bearing the inscription in .gold letters, “Brazilian Gem,” “Australian Diamond” or some such title. A “FLASHY LOOKING” AD. One of the worst fakes I ever came across in this line was carried on oy a mail order grafter, who put a flashy-looking ‘‘ad’”’ in the rural pa- pers, accompanied, of course, by an illustration, showing what was appar- ently a fine gold hunting-case watch. The “ad” was worded something on tais order: “This reliable time- piece, guaranteed to keep accurate time for an indefinite period, and not to get out of order, will be sent postpaid upon receipt of the remarka- bly-low price of $2.00.” Anyone looking at the illustration would suppose it was a handsome hunting case watch, and a great many persons answered the ‘“ad’’ and sent the requisite $2 along. In return they received a sund‘al, made out of cardboard and inclosed in 2 cheap brass case, somewhat re- sembling a watch case, the article not being worth over 25 cents at the most. The grafter did not state in so many words that he would send them a “watch,” but merely said “time piece.” Of course, a sun dial would come under this category. But it was.a swindle nevertheless, as every- one supposed they would get a watch. Another fake “ad” is the one in which the grafter offers to send a “handsome umbrella” in exchange for $1." In some cases they only ask 50 cents for it. But should you answer this “ad” and inclose the money, you may receive by mail a Japanese umbrella or sunshade, made out of colored paper on a bamboo frame, which could be bought in any store dealing in Japanese goods for 25 cents. . There are numerous other articles used by these grafters to deceive the public, such as the offer to send “a beautiful and reliable fountain pen” for $1, which turns out later to be one of those cheap little founiain pens made of tin, black enameled, such as street fakers sell for 10 cents each. Or perhaps it may not even be as good as that, but only one of those “glass pens” that one buys frork the “glass blower” at a county fair for 5 or 10 cents. I could go on and enumerate decep-

| ) accra —— _ - bo / F ag pel a \ \\ % 7 hp Se | tions of this kind ad infinitum, but the foregoing ins‘ances will suffice to show how the public is swindled by this class of grafters, and may serve to put. someone on his or her guard and prevent them from getting “stung” in the future. A couple of years ago I made the acquaintance of a young man in one of our Southern cities who was en- gaged at the time in operating one of the slickest and most remunera- tive “grafts” that I ever came in contact with. It was not until we had got pretty well acquainted that he confided to me the inside workings of his little scheme. Previous to his putting me “hep” I had supposed him to be 4 legitimate traveling salesman like myself, or an agent for some insur ance company or something on that order. He would first buy a big stock of. cheap brooches, put up two dozen on a card, and they cost him about 326 cents a dozen, or $4.32 a gross, whole- sale, which ‘s 3 cents apiece. Putting a quantity of these cards in his grip, each card containing 24 brooches, he would start out to can- vas some street in the residence dis- trict. He would visit each house where the inmates appéared to/be in comfortable circumstances. NAMES A FICTITIOUS FIRM. He would ring the doorbell and when the lady of the house appeared would tell her he was representing “The Anglo-American Premium Co,” of Chicago, which was, of course, a fictitious name, there being no such company in existence. Taking one of the cards containing the brooches out of his bag he would tell the lady that he desired to leave it with her and that the company required no deposit whatever, and simply wanted her to sell the brooches among her lady. friends and neighbors, at 10 cents each, and that he would call again at the end of a week and col- lect the money for the goods she had sold. He stated that it was not absolutely necessary for her to sel] all the brooches, but that it was to her ad- vantage to do so, as the- company would make her a present of a pretty little watch if she sold them all, a chain bracelet for only selling 18. a fountain pen for selling 12 and a nice ring for only selling 6, so thatvshe was bound to get a premium of some ss. adie ie ds ae Pee Fancy ay te ke R FY Myth ae ne tue «oy ‘ : % ~ ithe ¥ A, a ant he ay “wees at Sa hs eS Ei Spek, i r : 5 ¥ t nN a

THE FAKE THEATRIC- AL GAME. a

even to the police.

[eee COMINC! BY SHERLOCK HOLMES JR. N these columns next week I will throw the searchlight on a St. Loris ‘‘joint’’ where nobody is admitted without being personally introduced, giving details unknown

as method of advertising their goods, and that the company was going to open a large store ‘n that particular town very soon and desired the pub- lic to become .acquainted with its goods beforehand. He would also state that of course the company made no money on the brooches, selling them at such a low price, but that they figured it was better to do business this way, and get the goods directly into the hands of the people, than to spend thou- sands-of dollars a year in newspaper and magazine advertising. The grefter would generally succeed in leaving a card of brooches at every house he visited on the street. Then he would take a different street and do the same thing all along the line. Of course, he kept tab in his note- book of each house where he left a card, and also of the date when it

that night, and that she could expect to receive the watch by mail in about a week from date. In case the woman demurred, and said she thought he would vive her the premium right away, the grafter would tell her that the agents were not allowed to give out the premiums but merely sent in the namcs of those persons who were entitled to them and the company forwarded the pre- miums 4&8 soon as they received these as of ae and addresses. e explained that the ; which he carried with him aoa por for demonstrating purposes and could not be given away, ag it would be contrary to the company’s rules However, very few ever objected to waiting.

- “Girls wanted, between 18 and 25, to join a theatrical company; experi- ence unnecessary; rehearsals begin soon. Apply at once to Mr. Blank, manager, room 999 ‘Skyscraper Building.” To any young girl with a longing to go on the stage the above would cer- tainly “look good,” and the chances are 100 to 1 she would answer it with- out delay, unless restrained by older and wiser heads.

A an “advance agent” ‘years, and during my ex-

ry When a young girl answers the “ad” she is ushered into the’ “recep- tion room” and is. then questioned closely by one of the grafters, who, of course, is always well dressed and looks the part of a prosperous the- atrical manager to perfection. Tre valis of the office are covered with yictures of actors and actresses, lipped from the various dramatic pa- pers, and highly colored lithogzg aphs. in order to create an impression on the vic- tims, and mate them: believe they are “up against the real th ng.”’ he fake manager “sizes up” each applicant thoroughly in order to as- certain whether or not they are “wise,” and if such is the case no attempt is made to swindle them, but merely takes down their names and addresses and says he will “let them know later on,” and that is all they ever hear from him. COMPLIMENTS AND FLATTERY. But if he sees that the viciim is in- experienced he pretends to be fa- vorably impressed, and even flatters her vanity by complimenting her upon her personal appearance, even though in reality she may be very plain looking and possess no more fig- ure than a lamp post or a bale of hay. He then proceeds to fill her full if “hot air,” telling her about the large sompany he is organizing and how the show is booked to play all the principal cities throughout the coun- try. Then he offers to give her a po- gition in the chorus at $25 per week, and, of course, the poor girl is de- lighted. Then calling in another man from the adjoining room, who is also very well dressed and courteous in his manner, the “manager” introduces the newcomer to the victim, and tells her that this is Mr. ——, the “stage “manager,” who is to rehearse the company in the new piece. Then he tells the “stage manager” that this young lady is to be a future member of the chorus, and that as she is new to the business, he wants her treated with every consideration, and care- fully trained in her du ies. This apparent kindness has a ten- dency to remove any traces of ner- vousness or lack of self-confidence in the young girl and puts her in a pleasant frame of mind. The “manager” then proéduces a contract, which Is, of coyrse, only a “nhoney,” and explains it'to the young girl, telling her that she must give them two weeks’ notice if she ever wants to quit the show, and that the “management” will_also give her two weeks’ notice in case they should ever be required to dispense with her services. IT LOOKS BUSINESS-LIKE. This all looks business like and helps to gain the confidence of the victim. After she has signed her con- tract and been duly enrolled on the roster of the “company,” the “stage- manager” tells her that she will have to be measured for her costumes, and at once takes her into an adjoining room, where she is introduced to an- other man, who is supposed to be the “costume.” Somet'mes, in case one of the graft- ers.is married, he has his wife there to play the part of a “stenographer.” and she pretends to be busily engaged in taking down dictation from the “manager” about prospective “dates” to be played, ete., which ts all done to “boost the game along” and make things “look natural” to the victim. The fake “stage manager” now tells the young girl that it is customary to require a cash deposit from each member of the chorus on. their cos- tun.ee, for, as he goes on to explain, the “costumer” is going to start | away to take her measure and make up her costumes, and in case should afterwards change her mind, or get sick and not go out with the show. the company would have gone

to all this expense for nothing and would have the costumes lett on their

Everything in confidence. L. A. H., this office. (SS LOUISE A. HILDRETH, Mi a popular member of the younger set of the exclusive Avondale section of Cincinnati, has just won in a most emphatic manner, the wager on which she inserted the preceding advertisement in a Cincin- nati newspaper. Morton Symmes Al- lison, one of her friends, declared his belief that most of the letters prini- ed in the “Advice to Lovers” col- umns of the press are concocted in the various newspaper offices. “People have too much sense to confide their afflictions in love to outsiders,” he is reported to have said.- Miss Hildreth wagered that she would receive bona fide replies to an advertisement offering first aid to the enamoured, and Allison accepted the bet. Now the cards are out for the wedding of Miss Marjorie Allen Wil- son to Morton Symmes Allison, and Miss Hildreth wears a _ beautiful bracelet, a gift of the scoffer, the inscription on which testifies his gratitude to her as an adjutant to Cupid in his own courtship. One evening several months ago a number of young people were gath- ered at Miss Hildreth’s home, and the conversation drifted to a discus- : sion of the “agony” column of a Cin- cinnati journal, It was contended by 7 several, and by young Allison more ‘i stontly than any, that the people who ventilate their love affairs in print cannot be sincere, even admitting the 7} letters are genuine. HAD FAITH IN NEWSPAPERS. But Miss Hildreth declared her conviction that numbers of people resort to the newspapers for advice in their intimate affairs because they fo not know where else to turn for counsel, and are unwilling to admit their difficulties to their close friends. Her wager with Allison followed. The result was that on the follow- ing Sunday Miss Hildreth’s adver- _tisement addressed to the unhappy lovers of the country at large was printed. Each of the young people who had taken part in the discussion _ | at the Hildreth home was pledged to “secrecy. "gent anonymous A week passed and no pallid youth or lovesick mafd sought the heart balm that was offered. However, the failure of lovers generally to appre- clate the opportunity proferred did not discourage the .expectant physi- clan. She smiled when her friends “testimonials” ex- stags delight over the efficacy of er prescriptions. When rallied on the apparent loss anne

of her wager, Miss Hildreth replied: “T’ll try a few more advertisements before I will admit the idea is a failure.’’ And the advertisement ap- peared for several succeeding Sun- days. One day the mail brought her two letters postmarked “Hillsboro, O.” She was convificed that they were in answer to her advertisement and they proved to be what she hoped. One letter was written by a young man who stated that he had admired ‘the lady of his choice for more than a year, and that he hs met her fre- quently at the social gatherings of the village. He wrote that he was hopelessly in love with the voung woman, but that he seemed to be making no headway and feared a rival would soon carry off the prize. He pleaded to be told what to do. ONE FROM YOUNG WOMAN The other letter was from a young woman. She conferred with frank- ness that she was desperately in love with a young man of her home vil- lage, but complained that he did not show whether she interested him any more than a half a dozen other girls. She said she studied to please him and to make herself attractive in his eves, but that, seemingly, her efforts had been unavailing. She declared she was in desperate need of advice and that her life was most. unhappy. Miss Hildreth was considerably startled when she realized for the first time the responsibility her wager had placed upon her. She had indeed won it, for these letters proved that anxious persons would in all sincer- ity seek advice from strangers as to their troubles in love. But should she dare take in hand the destinies of these two unhappy young people? The wager made in fun had re- vealed consequences on which she had not clearly counted. But she did not shrink from them long. She woui:! see the thing through. She re-read the letters and then by a flash of feminine intuition, as- sociated the authors together as writ- ting of one other. She adopted that presumption until it should be proved ‘wrong by developments, but it proved correct. The following day each of the lov- ers received a reply from “L. A. H.” asking more information about their love affairs and suggesting that they write what ’each most admired or de- sired in a man or woman. She asked that characteristics each deplored or disliked in the other also be told to her. If timidness was a deterrent on the part of either she must know it. If either showed constraint when in the same company she must know it and its probable cause. These and other similar matters she said she must know before she could give the ex- pert advice that would unite them

Iceland’s Women Politicians

They are Authors of Many Valuable Reforms. N NO country in the world do | women possess. greater political power than in Iceland. Under the new Constitution, granted to the people of that island in 1903 by their sovereign lord, the King of Denmark, “women may vote for members of the - Jeelanders. The Althing—the Parliament of Iceland— on the same terms as men; and they may also be elected members of that body, and as local authorities. Sev- eral have gained seats on the Althing during the past five years, and have considerably influenced the debates and tegislation of that assembly. It is interesting to consider how far the politicians in petticoats have “made good” in Iceland. The writer has paid two visits tg Iceland, and ‘s convinced that, if ever a country stood in need of thorough- going social reforms, it is that bleak, gloomy, desolate, disease-haunted is- land, Probably no people in Europe live in such a degraded condition as the 1903 Constitution came into being because the men re- sponsible for the country’s géVern- ment hed made a ghastly mess of things. In place of enjoying a com- plete home rule, as heretofore, the Althing was made directly respona.i- ble to the King of Denmark, through a resident Minister for Iceland. An‘ the Danish Parliament thought fit, at the same time, to give the colony a chance to produce stateswomen, if it could not produce statesmen. The women have shown a keen in- terest in politics, but they do not ap- pear to seek always to elect their own sex. . They exact pledges from male candidates to support their favorite schemes of social reform—especia'ly those dealing with the drink traffic. Drunkenness is one of the greatest |) curses of Iceland. Most of the people live on ioneiy § farms. Until recent years the farmer - ul + ‘a 4. sa 5 + 3 went to Reikjavik, the capital, once a ar, in early summer, to sell wool. a drunken bout there, lasting days or weeks, and then went > keep sober until he came Pie go to the towns and villages noch ple go tot wns an much ‘oftener, and they bring liquor back to ‘tor, have the farms. The consumption of spir- its per head of the population is enor- mous. The women politicians have secured the passing of several very drastic laws for the restriction of the liquor traffic. Our own licensing bill is mild by comparison; but it is doubt- ful whether these measures have real- ly decreased the sum to-al of the national drunkenness. ‘Ihe moral suasion applied by the Salvation Army—which is very strong and pop- ular in Iceland—has certainly done = in that direction’ ome women reformers in ja- vik, heade@ by a well-known Bence tried hard to cure the iu- sanitary habits which are the peculiar and unenviable characteristic of the Icelanders, passed; but it is still a common thing, at the Hot Springs — which form a sort of public open-air washhouse for the people of Reikjavik —to see a woman calmly filling her coffee pot from a small pool in which the dirty clothes of severa) families are steeping. Reformers in Iceland like reformers elsewhere, have discoy. ered that it ‘s one thing to pass a law and quite another thing tg en- force it, in the teeth of deep-rooted ignorance and ancient prejudice. According to a confession made by an old Reikjavik politician, the women members of the Al‘hing have shown themselves much abler in de- bate and much more businesslike than the men. “In the old days,” he said, “the speeches were interminably long and filled with turgid bombast. without the glimmer of a real idea. “Whar. ever the subject under discussion, no member could get upon his feet with. out dilating on the ancient glories of Iceland—how she taught Columbus +, discover America, how her lite:ature was finer than anything Greece o- Rome ever knew, her Vikings the greatest heroes the world ever saw. and so on. But the women are brief and to the point. When they are tailk- ing about the city sewerage, they don’t find it necessary to go back to Columbus, They have certainly in- troduced a common-sense tone into our debates which was sadly lacking before.” rier that reared itself between them. It came about just as she expected. The earliest mail carried to her two long letters crowded with personal estimates and with a full statement of the case of each as the other saw it. From now on it was easy. The “expert” commenced her “treatment’”’ at once. She had every- thing in-her hands she needed and it was from that point onward but a matter of delicate handling. In her reply io the young man she and Miss Hildreth told of the suc- cess of her first experiment in mend- ing broken hearts and leading halt- ing lovers to the altar. She said she had other clients whose cases were pending and that she would soon show them all, and particularly Mr. Allison, that there was more in her theory than they or she had original- ly imagined. This time Allison was observed to look thoughtful. During the interval in which she had been prescribing for the love-

She told him where he did not attain the ideal of his lady and pointed out how 5y doing this or that or by some change in his demeanor he might tnd him- self growing nearer his goal. Miss Hildreth, now thoroughly interested, added a few suggestions of her own as to what to do in the case of an emergency. Her advice to the despairing girl- client was somewhat different. Wom- en understand each other better than they understand men, and the fact that she was talking to a girl about her own age gave her courage to of- fer more intimate advice. After writ- ing the two letters, she waited ex- pectantly for results. From time to time she received other letters from each of her cor- respondents asking further instruc- tions. Like a good physician, she was not sanguine of effecting a com- plete cure with a single dose of medi- cine. So, when other problems pre- sented themselves to the lovers, she thought a way out of the difficulty and suggested it to them. THE ENGAGEMENT ANNOUNCED. One day there came to her a stiff, white envelope enclosing another that held an engraved sheet of paper. It was the announcement of the ap- proaching marriage of her clients to each other. There was an urgent ap- peal from the bride-to-be for her to come to Hillsboro and attend the wedding in the village church. The grateful girl protested that she never would be able to repay what had been done for her, and that she thought the results remarkable as her coun- sellor did not know her betrothed or herself personally, and had never held a moment's conversation with them in her life. The engraved piece of paper stated that “L. A. H.” was requested by Mr. and Mrs. George Edward Shaw to attend the wedding of their daugh- ter, Mary Elizabeth, to Mr. Harry Gilson Rawlings «t the First Metho- dist Episcopal . reed on the evening of Jan. 6 at 8 o'clotk. The letter she received from young man was less effusive, but it declared his gratitude for what had been done for him. He said nothing, however, about attending the wed- ding.

x i. 4 ae —- . 7 J " i Si ee § Useless—Handles $200- 000.000 Yearly With _ Jurisdiction Over 15 States PECULLAR situation has developed in St. Louis. The United States Subtreasury, which ought to be, in a way, the center of the local banking world and the most im- portant aid to the transaction of financial and commercial affairs, has withdrawn from the Clearing House, and is at war with the local banks. Strangers coming to St. Louis from New York, Chicago and other large cities in which a Subtreasury is located, learn with astonishment of the unimportance of the Subtreasury here, if they hear of its existence at all, although it handles $200,000,000 a year. The New York Subtreasury appears to adequately fill the part which subtreasuries were intended by Congress to play in the com- mercial life of the United States. It 1s condueted for the conven- ience of the banks, serving as a ready channel between them and the Treasury Department at Washington, complying promptly with all legitimate requests for the redemption of money and the expeditious handling of financial affairs. It is like the heart of the financial system of the city, supplying steady arteries of inter- eourse between the banks and the Government, and between the banks themselves. It was apparently intended by the law establishing a Sub- treasury in St. Louis that this institution should serve the banks of the entire Southwest. But it appears now that, aside from act- ing as the Government paymaster, the Subtreasury in St. Louis is out of touch with the Southwestern banking world, and unlike any other Subtreasury in the United States. The St.. Louis banks practically ignore it, because, they say, ’ it will not do anything for them. They make a number of charges against the institution, and most of these are admitted to be true by the Snbtreasurer. The filthy condition of the paper currency in circulation in the Southwest, which renders it a disg ave to this section of the eountry and a menace to the public health, is unequivocally attrib- uted by the bankers to the Subtreasury in this city, which. they say, refuses to redeem this currency. Were it not for the banks which have exchanged their worn-out bills for new at a large ex- pense to themselves. there would apparently be little or no fresh currency today coming into the Southwest.

449 DON’T know or care anything | about the St. Louis Subtreas- ury,” says Charles H. Huttig, president of the Third National Bank. “As a factor in the business world of St. Louis, it is nil.” ‘> - With unanimity, the, bankers al- Axi - ae ™ oS OOO gy eG ? . ‘ * “pot or cannot discharge one of that the local Subtreasury dose its chief obligations under the law, which is to redeem instantly all muti- lated currency and worn specie, by whomsoever and whensoever present- ed for exchange. In fact, most of the bankers declare that it never occurs to them to send their unclean paper money to the Federal Building for re- demption. They simply pack it ‘ip, send it to the Treasury in Washing- ton, get new bills in exchange, and pay the expressege both ways. This service, as contemplated when the Subtreasury was established in St. Louis, Was to be rendered all com- ers, free of charge, by the Govern- ment. , The result is that St. Lou's and the Southwest are today the dumping ground of what is lite:ally the na- tion’s filthy lucre. Half a million of dangerous diseases have been counted on one paper dollar of the kind current here. - Thomas J. Akins, Subtreasurer in St. Louis, has just returned from ex- plaining to the Committee on Claims of the House of Representatives in Washingion why he was making po- litical speeches in Missouri in 1906 on the day when $61,500 disappeared from the Subtreasury.

the success of the party.” “Politics!” exclaimed J. A. Lewis, cashier of the National Ban of Com- merce. ‘Politics is the bane of the St. Louis Subtreasury. It has become a pie-counter for the convenience of politicians, instead of a financial in- stitution for helpful co-operation with the banks. Mr. Akins’ defense in Washington that he is a ‘party man’ and the complaisance with which it was received by the investigating committee, are a disgrace to Ameri- —-~ SUNDAY MAGAZINE - ST. LO ‘‘POLITICS.”’ can public life.” The feud between the St. Louis banks and the Subtreasury began with the panic of 1907, when the Sub- treasury, after exchanging recrimina- tions with the banks, severed its con- nection with the local Clearing House. It is still stated by some bankers that the Subtreasury, had it remain- ed in the Clearing House, could have materially eased those troublous times. It is also complained bv the bank- ce 4

ers that the Subtreasury d‘d not sus- pend its rule, to suit the conditions of the money shortage, that all in-, ternal revenue stamps must be paid for in cash. As over $26,000 worth of these stamps are bought daily in St. Louis, the banks weie unable io stand the drain on their cash, and most of the big tobacco factories of the city were compelled to close for several months because of their in- ability to obtain Government stamps. Some of the banks, to prevent their brewery depositors from closing their doors, bought currency in New York at a premium of frem $30 to $50 per $1000, so that the indispensable stamps could be bought. In reply to a statement of these complaints, Mr. Akins said: “I have persistently refused, in the face of ‘knocks’ from the press and the banks, to discuss this subject.” He considered a moment, and added: “I have refused, for the good of the ban's themselves.”’ The Subtreasurer declined to fur- ther elucidate this statement but it is understood at the Subtreasury that Mr. Akins believed himself perform- ing a public service in withdrawing from the Clearing House in the fall of 1907, sO as to relieve the banks of making immediate cash settlements of their obligations to the United States Treasury. As to receiving bank checks for revenue stamps, it is one of the iron- clad rules of the Treasury Department to deal in nothing but cash. If checks or drafts are received there, they are cleared for cash before nigntfall. “But rules are made for men. not men for rules,”’ retort the bankers thinking of the thousands of tobacco workers thrown out of employment because of the Government's insist- ence on a technicality. Even bankers jn St Louis who are friendly to the Subtreasury declare that they consider it absolutely use- less to apply to that institution for the redemption of paper money, par- ticularly $1 and $2 bills, though these denominations are the most numer- ous in circulation, grow foul most quickly and enjoy the shortest lives. In most St. Louis banks, when a stack of currency unfit for circulation has been accumulated, no one even a thinks of redeeming it at the Sub- treasury. An express company is notified, the money goes to Washing- ton, and an expressage of 60 cents per $1000 is paid. It is even impossible at times, says one cashier, to obtain the redemption here of battered and light-weight sil- ver coins, plentiful as silver is in this section. “We have daily great heaps of sil- ver to redeem or exchange for cur- rency for the United Railways,” says Mr. Akins. “The clerks at the Subtreasury,” Subtreasurer Says Cleri- cal Force Is be Insufficient

continued Mr. Lewis, the National Bank of Commerce cashier, “seem to go to an extreme in tnvoking and in- venting technicalities for the purpose of saving labor. We feel that it is futile to asi favors or even assist- ance from the Subtreasury. It is ut- terly vain, as we long ago discovered, to expect to get clean $1 and $2 bills for our customers from Mr. Akins. “The Subtreasury has no weight in local bus‘ness, though it ought to have, and if it did its duty, would have. The clerks there are always making up new rules to save work. They wouldn’t open a cage window there after 3 p. m. to save a bank from failing, just because it is the rule to close at that minute, The Subtreasury might as well be abolish- ed. for all the good it does the banks of the city.” John W. Woods, secretary of Commonwealth Trust Co., says ‘hat “red tape’’ at the Subtrearury: pre- vents the institution from affording much co-operation to the ban.s by re- deeming their soiled money. “We are practically unable to ob- tain fresh currency in small denomi- nations from the St. Louis Subtreas- ury,” he says, “and have given up trring. We send all our dirty bills to Washington for redemption.” Edward Barklage, assistant cashier of .the German Savings Institution, 51's that politics is the whole trou- ble with the Subtreasury here. “The local branch of the United States Treasury is of little or no as- s s‘'ance to the banks of St. Louis,” says Mr. Barklage. “We can’t re- deem our currency here at all, and always send it to Washington, pay- ing expressage both ways. Often we are restricted in redeeming even sil- ver coins which are damaged. Dur- ing the panic we had to pay $30 per $1000 for currency in New York in o der to buy internal revenue stamps sO as to prevent several of our large depositors from. throwing all their employes out of work.’ Edwa:d Buder, treasurer of the Mercantile Trust Co., says that he has found it almost impossible to get new currency in small denominations from the St. Louis Subtreasury. “It is worse than pulling eye teeth,” he adds. George Hoffman, vite-president of the Merchants-Laclede National Bank, complains that his institution “has the greatest difficulty in obtaining fresh $1 and $2 bills from Mr. Akins’ office. We are permitted to exchange only silver certificates for new bills, as no other sort of paper legal tender is accepted for redemption. “One day I telephoned the Subtreas- urer that we were in extreme need of new $1 bills, which our women depos- itors peremptorilf#’demanded. We had $12,000 in mutilated silver certificates. By the hardest sort of pleading, we got $4000 in new money. For the re- mainder we had to accept the Sub- treasurer's check.” On paper money such as is circu- lating in St. Louis and the South- west, owing to the alleged lethargy of the Subtreasury, Prof. Warren W. Hilditch of Yale University found from 14,000 to 586,000 germg each. They included, the microbes of coun- junctivitis, meningitis, diphtherta the

HE catastrophe of the great drama in which love of a wom- an and love of art are deadly adversaries has just been finished in the life of Guiseppi Peluso, St. Louis sculptor. Though Peluso was one of the most praised of al) the artists who decorat- ed the palaces of the Louisiana Pur- chase Exposition, he calmly beheld the dismantling of his studio forever and the passing of his chisels and hammers into alien hands. He saw with composure the paws of consta- bles seize the works upon which his inspiration had once eagerly labored. He has now settled his mind upon the prosaic tasks of a department store floor walker. In short, he is mar- ried, and the hearth is victorious over the altar of art. But, so cunningly does love cam- paign for her monopoly over the soul of a man, that she first masked her- self as an ally of Art, and inspired the sculptor to the supreme and last achievement of his genius. Art was glad when Miss Lillian Braze, with languorous, heavy-lidded eyes, smil- i lips and blooming beauties up- plied to Peluso as a model. “Now,” exulted Art, “my sculptor, upraised by the perfection of this woman, shall achieve his life work, his magnum opus.” The hope was ful- filled, Peluso wrought his much-ad- mired bust, “The Dream of Love.” which stands in the St. Louis Art Museum. But,as the artist sat day by day int upon his model, and beheld her blooming fairness deaden under his hands and petrify into cold mar- ble, he began to feel himself an in- _ Verse Pygmalion. The Greek sculp- _ tor created a woman in marble so ; that the gods made her live, hat she might love him. Peluso was sied at rendering into stone a liv- woman as fair as Galatea. The le, lifelees image faded fainter and ter on his interest, as the glow- “et. ~~ re Peta We SP een, er: ’ ’ i OP ate Seale! eed Met Ka oe ing original bloomed brighter and brighter. The siren song of love was ringing in his ears, and drowning th- cold, austere voice of ambition, | Why was he wasting his youth on a cold “Dream of Love,” when she sat at his. side? This question he finally answered by wooing and win- ning Miss Braze, Love's unconscious accomplice in the drama. But since the wedding he has not put hand to chisel, and Art is forsaken for trade under the urgency of his new duty to “make a steady living for his wife.”’ Nor is art all that Pely as sac- rificed to his love. Mrs. reall tose of 2925 Magnolia avenue, St. Louis had constituted herself ag hig patron- ess. For two years, like a mother fostering a gifted son. She had paid the rent of his studio, encouraged him in his career, cheered his de- spondent moments, given him money when he needed it. But so estranged and incensed was she when her protege turned his back on his art and abandoned it forever for the love of a woman. that she went to the extreme of levying on his furniture, his tools, his uncompleted statues and of stripping bare the flat to which he had taken his bride. She even took a lien on the bust, “The Dream of Love.” But at these misfortunes the artist only smiled. What would have brok- en his heart a year before had no power to touch him now. He was a new man. He was in love and was happily married. "mring the Louisiana Purchase Ex- position, Peluso, a youth whose heart was alight with ambition, was drawn, like many another gifted foreigner. to St. Louis by the prospects of abundant work. He eas'!l: found em- ployment with the architec’s of the Fair, and proved himself so expert that he was intrusted with some uf the moat difficult tess of decoration, of which he acquitted himself well.

But when the construction was fin- ished demand for his work almost ceased. He did not lose heart or courage, however, but struggled on- wards, his eye on the future when he would be acclaimed one of the dis- tinguished men of his art. The turning point came in 1906, when he met Mrs. Lamb. She was a wealthy widow, 43 years old, with a taste for art. She was bargaining for the purchase of a statue, but felt a lack of confidence in her own judg- ment. She was referred to Peluso by one who knew his work at the Fair and recommended him as a sound judge. Mrs. Lamb sought his advice and bought the siatue. He went to her home several times afterwards, and their acquaintance ripened. Peluso told her of his am- bitions and struggles, and her heart was touched. She Leilfeved she fell in love with the handsome, talented, friendless young iwan. He, in turn, fancied his warm feelings of gratitude towards the first person in years who had shown interest in his fortunes, to be the “traces of the ancient flame. “AN ENGAGEMENT UNDERSTOOD.” An engagement was understood to exist between the pair, but that there was love on neither side is indicated by the sequel. Mrs. Lamb took pleas- ure in freeing him from financial worries, so that he could give his mind undivided to his labors. At one time she loaned him $80, at another $120; in all, during the past two years, she says, about $2000. In addition, she provided him with a studio free of rent and supplied him with clothes. This was the climater!c of his life as an artist, when he had nothing to think of but his work, thanks to her generosity.

He meets and weds Miss Lillian Braze. Love proves stronger than art, and his pa- troness, alienated and indignant, has him arrested for debt. He definitely turns his back on art and bechmes a floor walker to ‘make a steady living for his wife. = |

Then came the revolution in his life. He advertised for a model, and Miss Braze, a handsome young wom- an from East St. Louis, responded. For several months she posed for him in different characters, and daily her fascination tightened its hold on the artist. Finally the two struggling passions in him, art and love, joined forces for a moment to produce one great work. His new, strange inter- est in this woman he would produce outwardly as “The Dream of Love,” for his feelings toward her were still dim as a dream. In the meantime, the suspicions of Mrs. Lamb had been awakened. After the completion of “The Dream of Love’ the sculptor left his tools in idleness and spent no more joyous, laborious hours in his studio. His manner towards her grew more aloof, as he had learned that his fatal ten- derness for her was far different from real love, but was only friendship and gratitude. “One night,” says Mrs. Lamb, “he a - eo going to the horse didn’t (i bin, Y wee behind him. He Was not alone. Miss I went and sat right sta Braze was with him. He turned and gaw me, and I only bowed. That end- ed our engagement.” It was on that occasion, says Mrs. Lamb that she learned she had de- ceived herself in fancying she had loved the artist. Her interest was not so much in him ag in his making a great career. She saw his future in jeopardy, and was filled with wrath both at him and at the woman who had unconsciously led him away. “The suit of clothes he has on.” she raged to herself, “was bought by me, and so were the hat and the shoes. The edifice of his fame that I was rearing he has tumbled down. I will punish him and wash my hands of him.” A few days later she had him ar- rested, charging that he wag prepar- ing to leave town without paying her $2000 she had loaned him. The startled artist explained to the police that he had no intention of leaving town, as ~ 8 sotrtns to be married. He was released, and the implac Mrs. Lamb brought a ciyit sult cade which she seized his “Dream of Love” tue. Her attacks only hastened Peluso’s a wedding, and he and Miss Braze were suddenly married three weeks ago. He took his bride to live at apartments at 4362 1-2 Lucky street. As soon as Mrs. Lamb learned of their where- abouts she entered a suit of replevin in Justice Sanders’ conrt, and, armed with a writ, went herself to the flat and gloated upon the scene as the constable ripped up the rugs and tore down the pictures. She was considerably abashed, how- ever, by the manner in which Peluso and his wife bore this violence. With Sis bridé in his arms, the _ artist smiled with superiority as his once loved statues were torn from their niches. “I’m through with art,” he an- nounced, “and am going to make a good living for my wife. I shall need to be dependent on you no longer. I _~ > - , f > . _ a A | r4 OO } g * ‘ . > 2 Se , - - a Ve, ASS) 2 eee have a job as floor walker in a down- town store.” “Yes,” assented Mrs. Peluso, proud- ly, “Mr. Peluso will make a very im- pressive figure as a floor walker. We are happy, and all we ask is to be left to enjoy our life In our own way.” So sdying, the young couple stood opposite Mrs. Lamb as stoves, chairs, trunks and other-articles pointed out by her were removed to a waiting van. Afterwards, the young couple, with nothing but their clothes; went to a boarding house. “Our wedding was sudden,” said Mrs. Peluso, “because the persecu- tions of Mrs. Lamb forced us to make haste. “Tl was the model for my husband's ‘The Dream of Love.’ I met him a year and a half ago, when he adver- *ised for a model, and I began to sit for the bust which was to make his fame. I posed for other works of his, and I suppose it was natural for us to fall in love. He is an artist, hand- some and a fascinating man. “It ig not our fault if Mrs/ Lamb thought she was in love with him. I loved him, too, and our marriage proved that he loved me. The people of St. Louis are unappreciative of art, and Mr. Peluso has had to become a floor walker. But he will make the best floor walker in St. Louis, and we shall be happy if other people will nly let us alone.” ! ~ Lamb says she owns “The Dream of Love,” as she has twice paid off mortgages on it for Peluso. For four years, she declares, she took care of the artist like a mother. “TI first met Peluso four years ago,’ she says, “when I went to see him -_———- --

Torture of prisoners has been car- ried to a point of refinemetit. One cf the most terrible was surely the cage in which a man was placed so that his head just protruded at the top, while his toes only touched the ground sufficiently to prevent dislo- cation of the neck. His hands were bound behind him, so that he could not relieve himself, and he was left to be jeered at by the public until hunger and exhaustion put an end to his sufferings. The day of the bastinado, too, is by no means over. The prisoner is strung up in a reverse condition and the naked soles of his feet pounded with a cane, with the result that the victim seldom recovers.

The “cangue’” is regarded as a com- paratively mild sort of punishment. This consists of a wooden collar, about four feet square and four inches thick, which is placed over the pris- oner’s head, so that its full weight falls on the shoulders. A description of the offense is also attached to the victim's body; and as he cannot feed himself he has to rely. on the public for sustenance.

This is no theory or mb. It is true all over the bed, so general has the use of Sutomobile become on the West- ern farm that in lowa this winter the agricultural college at Ames is teaching boys from the farms the many uses of the motor car. Another short course for transient students also was arranged. In Kansas the same course is to be added next season, and in at least two other states the matter is under consideration whether or not automo- biling is a part of modern farming. Without waiting for the agricultural schools to instruct the coming genera- tion, farmers have decided the ques- tion for themselves. It is estimated that there are 1200 automobiles of various kinds at pres- ent in use on farms in lowa, Kansis and Nebraska. Automobile dealers say that, in comparison with this the city of St. Louis and its suburbs maintain not more than 1200 cars The only difference is that the car most popular on the farm is a cheap or medium priced one, whereas the cities buy many of an expensive type On top of these 1200 cars, motor car dealers in Kansas City, Des Moines and Omaha, the forwarding points re- spectively for Kansas and Oklahoma and lowa and Nebraska, expect the coming spring to bring the biggest rush of orders they have yet had. That there is reason for their expec- tation is shown by the advance or- ders already in. A day’s riding on the Kansas roads in the central portion of the State particnlarly. will prove pretty con clusively what the farm car has come to be. In the district around: Salina, Kan.. a town which does a considera- ble business in runabouts and light touring cars, for instance, a few con- cise examples may be found. In the western end of the State a farm motor built to drag plows and harrows andacultivators is being used on at least two big farms. These ma- chines are rare as vet, but a number of orders have been placed for them, and thev mav be expected to become plentiful. They will, however, be- cause of the initial cost, be confined to the big farms. It has been demon- straied that they area big saving over horses and labor where large tracts are to be handled. But the small farmer the man who has only a quarter section or two is reckoned a smal! farmer out in the West—values the motor car principal- ly for its speed and adaptability. It goes almost anywhere and does “any derned thing you can think on.” Speed has its practical value, too. A farmer whose home is three and a half miles from the nearest rural town bought a car in Salina last year. A week after the car arrived his wife was taken suddenly ill one night. He go: a physician in town out of bed by means of the rural telephone, raced to town in his motor car and had the physician at the bedside in less than twenty minutes.

But the farmer had a 15-year-old boy, with a penchant for mechanics. The boy got the old engine and. other parts. In a few days he had the en- gine operating a toy saw mill, a thresher and a harvester. Next he applied the force of the en- gine to the odious task of turning the washing machine, thus teaching some- thing to the domestic science men Churning day ap- proached, and the farm genius at- tached the engine and made it work the separator. rhen the young Edison's career was suddenly cut short. The father, with native thrift, saw that the engine was not useless and attached it to the corn sheller. The boy is back turning the washing machine in the good old way, but his experiments taught oth- ers something worth while, and the engines of automobiles are actually operating separators on Kansas farms. As an improver of dirt roads with a drag the automobile is in a class of its own, say the farmers.

Almost imper- ceptible shadings in the’ timber of voices which escape the grosser or- gans of seeing mortals, are replete with significance to his wonderful ears. From the quality of a man’s vocal tones, Colvin can unerringly deduce his age; and distinguish whether he is blond or brunette in complexion. To tell one’s height and weight are easy for him after he has heard his visitor’s footstep. Some of the deductions by which he builds an optical picture from aural impressions are conscious—he can explain them. But others, from constant exercise of his remarkable faculty, have become so nearly in- stantaneous and unconscious as (to approach intuitions. These he can- not elucidate so clearly, but they are none the less infallible. RECENT TEST OF HIS GIFT. Upon a recent occasion, when “the three meanest men in St. Louis” en- tered the blind man’s little stationery shop at 1040 South Newstead ave- nue and robbed his till of $5 while he stood helplessly by, he had an op- portunity of putting his gift to prac- tical use. Though the men were in his presence but a few minutes, he supplied the police with complete descriptions of each of them, every Jose E. COLVIN, . St. Louis’ blind truly be said to see with his ears. deta'l of which was corroborated by a woman who passed the store while the trio were within, and by a man past whom they fled. Colvin declares that if the men are caught, he can positively identify them by their voices. He says that he never forgets a voice, just as some persons never forget a face. His description of the thieves is as follows, and was ded solely from their voices, and footsteps, the men mever having been nearer him than aix feet: The leader, he snyx, was 26 years old, & feet 4 inches tall, was of a ewarthy complexion, wore a heavy mustache, wae stout in build, and wore a ragian overcoat. The second man, he declares, was 22 years old, 5 feet 11 tachen tall, was blend and smecth-shaven,. «lim in steture, and wore no overcoat. The third thief, according to Colvin, and alse to the two persons who saw him, w@s only 16 yearn old, wan 5 feet 4 inches tall was fair ef complexion and wore me evercoat, The police ware astounded when - Colvin announced these confident de- © seriptions, which it seemed impossi. ~~ bile for a vied to have But y were cor- by two other persons, a search was begun for men answering the blind man’s delineation. “The easiest thing for’ me to learn about a stranger,” says Colvin, his height. I can determine to inch the position from which voice issues in relation to my mouth, and can thence state height by a comparison with own. “If he wears. mustachios or a beard, his voice is slightly muffled in the hairs, though the difference might not be noticed by ears less pra‘ti’ed than mine. TELL AGE BY THE VOICE. “By a study of voices, I have learned that they differ slightly ac- cording to age. A young man’s voice is fresh and clear. As he grows old- er his tones become deeper, stronger and coarser. I can usually tell a man’s age to the year if I once hear him speak. “IT rarely make a mistake in stat- ing a man’s complexion, though this calls for the nicest discrimination. A dark man usually spea:s in deeper, stronger and gruffer tones than does a blond. The almost imperceptible difference in the timber of their voices sounds loud in my ears, and disparities to which another would be deaf are as emphatic to my senses as the distinction between blue and vio- let is to a painter. “Whether a man is stout or slim is easily decided. I can tell his weight by his tread, I know his height from the position of his mouth, and by a computation from these two facts his build may be mathematically de- duced. “The rustle of his garments. which many persons would not notice at all, is eloquent to me. If he wears an overcoat I can hear with ease the faint fluttering of its skirts about his legs. If the flutters are free. as in a loose-skirted coat, I can distin- guish them from the rasping of a tight-fitting garment against the trousers. HOW HE “SEES” COSTUMES. “It was by this observation that | knew the leader of the thieves wore a tight-fitting raglan. The others wore no overcoats at all, for the tell-tale whispers of the garments were absent as the thieves stole about the shop. “All these mental processes, which it takes many minutes to explain, | perform almost instantly, and out of the darkness of my mind a complete picture of any person | meget quickly glows and brightens into completer and completer detail.” To test the blind man’s powers, a Sunday Post-Dispatch reporter, who had never seen him before and had spoken barely a hundred words to him, asked for a description of him- self. For a minute Colvin’s strained attention, with one ear outthrust, as if feeling about with invisible anten- nae, established a tense rapport be- tween him and his questioner. Then he announced: “You are 237 years old, ‘je the his own his my Your height Ke : —— ite soil <4 rot es 4s — : eg Senge ale OR Pana a « 4 - - = eae

THE CONSERVATIVE LAW. BY MISSOURI N EX-LIEUTENANT-GOVERNOR CHARLES P. JOHNSON OF O JUDGE would let a jury decide whether a man was innocent or guilty merely by the identification of his voice, as Mr. Colvin proposes to convict the thieves who robbed him. The witness who claims to be expert by reason of the development of a special sense, such as this blind man has, would be too great an innovation for the conservative law. Identification of the voice is not enough, as it is only one element of identification; the others, and more important one, being identifica- tion by the eye. tion, was able to supply an accurate description Even if Mr: Colvin, by abnormal powers of deduc- of the _ thieves. it would be worthless in the eves of the law, unless corroborated by the testimony of persons with good eyes.

Your shoes are not Oxfords, because the heels do not strike the floor more loosely than the soles.” Each one of these facts was correct, save that the reporter lacks a few months of being 27, and is six feet tall. In the camera obscura of the blind man’s brain, the windows of which are darkened forever, a faithful picture had been thrown on the screen without the aid of light. His memory of things once had translated the sound waves of the air into etherial light rays. His deli- cate hearing had performed the func- tions of eyes. | To see Colvin busied about his shop is to watch a wonderful feat. Unhesitatingly and unerringly he placed his fingers upon the insulated handle of his stove door, though an inch away on ei.her side the iron was red hot. He walked to @ corne’, seized the bail of a coal buc-et al the first £rasp, returned io he etove and threw the fuel wich absoiute ac- curacy into the midst of the flames. He stooped and without the slight- est groping picked up a poker and stirred the coal down into the fire. A customer asked for chocolate creams. The shopkeeper walked, without feeling his way, behind the counter, opened the case and placed his hand instantly on the kind of candy wanted, though 50 other varie- ties thronged the counter. He knew the exact place Of every one of the thousands of articles on his shelves. From a pile of books he instantly picked one which was called for by name, as he had an exact mem- ory of its position and “feel.” This prodigy, whose hearing has developed beyond the keem perceP- seen tiveness of the savage and the wary sense of the wild things of the forest. is 62 years old. His sight began fail- ing 20 years ago, from a gradual paralysis of the optic nerve, and was totally extinguished four years ago. Instead of repining at his affliction he began, with something of the hero- ism of the poet Milton. to make the best of the senses remaining to him. In addition to the abnormal develop- ment of his hearing, his fingers are marvels of pliant Ssensitiveness, and his nostrils, he says. are regaining some of prehistoric man’s power of scent. THE STORY OF THE ROBBERY. The robbery which brought Colvin lo public attention occurred one night three weeks ago. He was sitting alone in his shop, when the door opened, and his alert ears distin- gu'shed three different footsteps, as clearly. as a Well-evyed person would have seen three different persons. AS is his habit, he instantly set the un- seen antennae of his heaning to twin- ing about the faces and persons of his Visitors, with the results which later confounded the police. : The stout, dark-faced leader asked for tobacco, and while Colvin was getting it from the shelf, stole be- hind the counter and opened the cash drawer. As nearly noiseless as were his actions, the blind man was in- stantly aware of them. and started to defend his til). The voices of the Other two men warned him to stop, and he stood in apparent impasrsiveness. but with his ears Strained 'O catch every clew from their vo'ces and movements. Taking $5 they fied. fancying themselves be- yond the Possibility of detection by a blind man, and unaware that their flying feet were betraying exact in- formation about them to his vigilant ears.

AN | oe \' blind, deaf and dumb, is one of the marvels of education of this century. So is Nat Herreshoff, designer of the victorious cup-defending yachts, who builds them by the sense of touch, as he is totally blind. Colvin’s abnormal auditory powers only suggest the powers of hearing which primeval man possessed. _ In- stead of being absolutely superfluous appendages, as his outer ears now are, they were of acute utility. They rose to a point and were flat and pliant, capable of being extended in any direction by muscles long since atrophied.

Whether Colvin would be permitted to give the testimony of his remarka- bly expert ears in an attempt to con- vict the men who robbed him, should they be caught, is a question dmong lawyers. Ex - Lieutenant - Governor Charles P. Johnson of St. Louis, a leading criminal lawyer, believes that no judge would permit a jury to de- cide a man's guilt or innocence on such testimony alone. Optical fden- tification would be indispensable, he says. This nice legal point was settled in the Oklahoma courts in 1907, when three “hello” girls declined to testify as to whose voice telephoned J.

Little Lady Speaks Many Languages and Is Quite Learned, Though Feminine and Charming—Witll ia Hold High Office as Superintendent of Education 4 T BARNARD COLLEGE in New York is A a little Chinese girl who speaks more lan- _™* guages than any other student there and who has learned them in traveling all over the world. Her name is Kang-Tung-Pih. “tm China,” she said to the writer, “there is no scheme of general education that is at all comparable with the education of Western civili- zation, in regard to the number and extent of the branches of knowledge it touches or the nig? e have, of course, our national civil service for men; we have, of course, our own literary class- ies and masterpieces, few of them modern, our own laws, our peculiar form of teaching art and science. “There is, however, no real or practical or- tanization of education facilities on those lines which modern conditions exact, and the attain- ment of the knowledge available is open only to the very few and the very favored. In other words, we are hopelessly conservative and far It is bad enough for men. As for poor woman—she js not the free being that he West knows, and among the upper orders er education has hitherto been devoted to learn- peihe science of the social graces and the art f pleasing man.” Marking the winsome graces of tie exotic lit- tle lady in a big, big armchair before him, the writer reflected that most men could easily con- done a lack of learning clothed in such amiabil- ity and charm of manner. Yet Milady Kang- ‘Tung-Pih has her store of erudition as well as her equipment of personal grace. She has trav- éled in every country of the world, speaks at least half a dozen language well, one of them being Hindostanee, besides being acquainted with sev- ral more, including Sanskrit. There is just a jodest hesitancy in her rendering of the 1's and r’s that spells its own particular charm, but she is rarely at a loss for the correct word, and her knowledge of the proper idiom is beyond criti- cism. Though assured by a pair of fair fibsters that the lady from China was of ponderous propor- tions and that she never appeared in the pres- ence of a he-being without a two-edged yatagan depending from her girdle, the see\er found her to be hardly taller than one of tnese large flower vases you sometimes see on a drawing rovm floor. Her hair is jet, her complexion is Spanish rath- er than Chinese. An ever-ready smile discloses a perfect set of teeth. Her eyes are very brown and very bright. You see none of the half-strabismic slant you ex- pect in the Celestial, and but for an occasional bird-like piping »f the voice and a cluck Of mer- riment that suggests the fan and a pair of al- mond eyes behind it, there is little to recal'’ the very exotic type of Chinese your mind so readily pictures. “T am here.” savs Milady Kang, “to study the art of teaching and to find out the. wonderful secret that ma' es of women’s education in Amer- ica such a wonderful organization. It is far su- perior to all I have seen, and I have lived at Oxford and know its methods. Cambridge. too, I know and also the French and German practice in pedagogics. “‘My object in life is a very serious one. When I return to my country I shall be appointed one of the chief directors of the educational machinery of China. My position will be official and in close touch with the Government.” Just listen to this for a girl of 21! Miss Kang is the only daughter of a celebrated Kang-Yu-Wei, the ea'liest of all the New China reformers. He is a Cantonese mandarin of the first order, a man of great influence and power, coming as he TAN EATON, iy does of the Cantonese princes of his name. Under the regime of the late Empress Dowager, he suf- fered imprisonment with several of the chief re- formers, but escaping from duress, left China, and with his daughter and a retinue of accomplished guides, made a tour of the world. Some of his fellow reformers were not so lucky. Most of them lost their honorable heads. “IT have lived three years in India, and, in every country of Europe, have seen all that is there to be seen.

AS a matter of fact the preachers of Cincinnati are already unionized. ; The Evangelical Alliance, organized not long ago, embraces in its mem- bership nearly all the ministers in Cincinnati ant contingent territory. The only exceptions are the ones who are now refusing a saiary for their work. But the Evangelical Alliance is different from the ordinary union in that it has not yet attempted to dictate how many hours per day they shall labor in the vineyard and how much money they shall be paid there- for. The Rev. John L. Hill, pastor of the Central Christian Cnurch, the largest of that denomination in Cin- cinnati, created something of a sen- sation several months ago when he announced from the pulpit that, be- ginning with the first of the year he would decline his salary of $2400 per year, S8ix-months prior to that he had already announced that he would tum half his pay back into the ebureh treasury .. cae ‘Before the discussion of the Rev.

Mr. Hill pulpi Ww for ’ things in order-to be: unswervingly indevendeni in mind, he thin«s, and to understand the: problems. of life he must live in the wo le of work, where life is seen in all its phases. Such is the conviction of John L. Hill, who was reared in a sectarian ¢hurch and educated to fill a sec- tarian pulpit. To him, however, the regulations of a certain creed were not congenial. He was of thit inde- pendent turn of mind which must pick and choose for itself. He left the ehurch in which he was reared and entered the ministry of the Christian church. The Chris- tian church hag no creed; and within it there is little formal idea. But its ministers are paid for their services to the church, and the Rev. Mr. Hill believes that th's should not be. Be- lief to him means action, and, there- fore, aS soon as circumstances per- mitted, he refused to accept the pas- toral saiary and announced that henceforth whatever portion of his {ime should be given to the church would be without money compensa- tion, “Understand me,” he explained, “I do not in the least wish to reflect upon the ministers who do not think as | do or who are compelled by cir- cums’ances to accept salaries.

Providence, I firmly believe, has brought about this con- ditian in order that the church may be turned from the paid ministry and go back to the early days of Chris- tianity for its inspiration, when the Apostles served without pay. The ideal. condition existed then and it will come again some day. “Service to God cannot be meas- ured in money...

was the original policy of the Christian church that one man should devote himself ty attending to the spiritual needs of the congregation while the congregation supplied him with temporal necessities. I den’t see how it would be possible to have an. efficient ministry otherwise. I don’t see how it would be possible for ministers to give the right sort of serv- ice Wi.hout reasonable compensation ard financial support. ‘‘A minister is obliged to eat and wear clothes and he must get those things from some source. If he devotes him- self to the cnureh, then the church should provide for him. If a church only wants a part of a pastor’s time it would be all right for the church not to take esre of him. But the ef. ticiency\of such pastoral service mf®ht be quest’oned.” The Rev. W. J. Williamson, pastor of the Third Bapt'st Whurceh, said: ‘‘The modern church has become a great kusiness enter- prise. Its work demands able‘leadership. Various exneri- ments such as are being made by those Cincinnati brethren have met with failure in the past. A pastor is not paid simply for preaching on Sunday. If that were all he was exnected to do, it would not be right for him to aceept pay. But I do not feel that I have ever taken one cent for Sunday sermons. I have been paid for separating myself from secular pursuits and deyoting myself, Sundays and week days, to the church and its work.”’ ’ Rev. Urban Stanowski, who, during the 25 years of his pastorate at St. Stanislaus’ Catholic Church, has refused to accept more than half his $1000 salary (returning the re- mainder to therchurch), said: ‘‘A Catholic congregation is different from a Protestant congregation in that the Protestant minister is hired hy the congregation, while the Catholic priest is appointed by the Bishop to manage the coneregation, to be its direetor in both spiritval and financial affairs. ‘‘A priest should live about as the ordinary middl¢-class man lives. And if hewis seen by, his fleck—and such thines are observed quickly—to be making sacrifices for the ehurch, then the people will be benefited spiritually. the work of the ehurch will prosper and the church ‘will make progress.

But that mission was a failure; at least, the church support- ing it thought so, because the pastor in charge of it was not saving enough souls commensurate with the salary paid him. The meetings were well attended and all that, but the pastov’s reports, at stated intervals, of the number of souls he had saved, evi- dently were not satisfactory. “Now my dream is over. I no longer desire to be the pastor of a church of the rich and receive a princely salary.

O dreams come. true? : [) Just now the American Society for Psychical Research is very much con- terned with this question, for it has before it a case that is nore than extraordinary. Dr. James H. Hyslop, former professo;> of logic and ethics at Columbia University, New York, and now ediio: of the Journal of the American Society for Psychical Research, and who recently lec- tured in St. Louis, has taken up the work. ‘ Dr. Hyslop draws ‘no conclusions; he simply States the facts concerning Marie F. Shipley, wife of Harry H. Shipley, cashier of the Beggs Bank of Columbus, O., and president of the firm of Shipley & Co., dealers in bankers’ supplies. . Mrs. Shipley, an extremely religious woman, 48 years of age, has dreams which come true. This cannot be doubted. She dreams and tells her dream the next day, putting it down in black and white when she awakes in the morning. Wit- nesses hear her recital and then await the out- come. And what she tells them invariably comes ‘ tiue, days, months or even years later. Mrs. Shipley has no desire for publicity. She has no money-ma:ing scheme. She disliices to talk about the premonitions which come in her sleep. She is an intensely religious woman and gays frankly she believes that hers is a gift from the Almighty and nothing else. She makes no attempt to explain. The gift, as she says, came to her when she 8 years old. She is 48 now—a kindly-faced, ly woman, whose entire life is wrapped @p tn her church and in her home. Dr. Hyslop went to Columbus to see Mrs. | ~ Shipley and to hear from her own lips what she had to say about her dreams. He was so im- préssed with what she told him that he prepared as article for the magazine which he edits, re- citing some of the instances which Mrs. Shipley Bave him. ‘But whether or not psychology is to learn anything from these remarkable experiences is another story. Whether they can or cannot be explained remains to be seen. As for Mrs. Shipley, she had her own ideas. She gave them, rather hesitatingly, to be sure, to.a representative of this paper, at her home, 1337 Courtland avenue, Columbus. “T can’t explain it at all,” she said, “but it is a of my religion.

Mrs. Shipley is a woman of wide and thorough especially along the lines of phychology and phychical research. She thir':s that the topic of a future life has been settled for all time; t there is one and that a great deal has. been : about it. All of this Prof. Hyslop heard, and he made special visit on behalf of the American Society a. | tor Psychical Research to investigate for them at .. ofiret hand. What he learned then is the basis of rae: report. Either Mrs. Shipley’s ; ‘@ series of remarkable coincidences or there was something in them which can- mot be explained by ordinary human means. “I am not concerned at present,” said Dr. Hyslop, “with any cheory of the facts. “Mrs. Shipley wrote me in July, 1907, and gave me a running account of some of her dreams and coincidental experiences, with the statement tiat they could be confiimed by various witnesses, and naming a number of them. I at once saw their importance if they could thus obtain ihe desired corroboration, and wrote her to that et- fect. 4 “It remains to say that careful. inquiries we.e instituted regarding the character and reliability of Mr. and Mrs. Shipley, and these were made among both their fiiends and those who would not be supposed to have any prejudices regarding them. It suffices to say that the replies all give them the highest standing in the community for honesty and business connections. “Mr. Shipley has been connected with several banking insiitutions in the city of Columbus and is now associated with one of them. [ie has also had other business connections, involv'ng con- siderable trust. Mrs. Shipley has been an active member of important charities, and both are ac- tive members of the church. Those who are con- nected with them in this work speak in the high- est terms of them.” This is how Mrs. Shipley keeps a record of her dreams, as she has reported to Prof. Hyslop: “We very seldom retire before midnight, so the dreams do not occur on this date, but count them on the next day. Then, if I should happen to waken out of or after a dream, I go to the clock and see what time it is. I -keep a candle and matches by my clock, which has been a habit of mine before I kept a record of dreams. In the morning I tell these dreams to my husband, some- times before breakfast, but usually at breakfast. If the dream impresses me very much and rouses me out of my sleep, then I waten him, also, and tell the dream and time. He has often asked “what time is it?’’ before I would have a chance to tell him the time. “After he leaves the house, I take pencil and paper and write out the dream and date; then, when I have time, I put it on the typewriter; always make a carbon copy. I have a copy of everything I sent you. “After I put these dreams on paper in the morning I try to get some one by phone if I can. Then, too, I go, if I can, and tell some one else as soon as I can leave the house.” Now, for these remarkable dreams which come true just as Mrs. Shipley has recorded them. One of the earliest was of a woman friend who was burned to death just as Mrs. Shipley dreamed it. This is the record: MARIE F. SHIPLEY. We, the undersigned, hereby certify that the above recorded dream relating to Sadie Tanner, was reported to us by Mrs. Marie F. Shipley. Date, September, 1903. MRS. FRANCIS McELVAIN, Per GERTRUDE RILEY. HARRY H. SHIPL. Another: ' On Oct, 25, 1903, 6 a. m. In my dream of this date Mr. Smith Spence aissed me as he went to his long htme. Th's awakened me, and, looking at the watch, I saw that it was just 6 o’clock. I then awakened my husband, telling him that we must get up, as | know Mr. Spencer was gone, because he came to kiss me good-by This man was a relative of my grandmother and was very fond of me. He so often put his arms about me, draw me up to lim and kiss me. He was so fatherly and so kind to me that [ still miss him, but often see him in my dreams, and that is a comfort to me. He died the same morning at 6 a. m. We, the undersigned, hereby certify that the above recorded dream relating. to Mr. Smith Spencer was reported to us by Mrs. Marie F. Shipley on the same date set opposite our sig- natures. MARRY H. SHIPLEY, 10-25-03. Date Oct. 25, 1903, FRANCIS McELVAIN. Per GERTRUDE RILEY. Sometimes during this month, I dreamed that I was at my grandma’s and I saw a fire by her back gate, near the barn. I went to the back door and there stood Sadie Tanner in the midst of these flames. I became very much frightened and called' out aloud, “Sadie Turner, you will burn to death!” She paid no attention to me and burnt to death. I stood and watched the flames ~ they were so bright and leaped so high; and poor Sadie, standing in the midst of them, never moved or tried to get out of them. I shall never forget it. When I think of her now, I always See her stunding in the midst of those flames. On the very morning of’my dream she came here to my house to clean for me, but I did not date to say a word about my dreams, as she was a firm bel‘ever in them. _ The time passed on and I thought nothing would come of it, after three vears, but, on Dec. 21, 1906, at 5 a. m., Sadie did burn to death. She wis sitting at her dresser, combing her hair, and picked up the lamp and the handle came off and fell in her lap and she was all flames. She died at 11 a. m. at the hospital. She knew everything w the last and told how it happened. This dream came true: I had a dream sometime in January, 1994. I did not keep the date of this and some others I had. I had no idea that I should ever need any of them. In this dream I was in a little town, a place in which d had never been before, and as [ got in fiont of a house, an old lady appeared at my side in front of this house and said to me, “I want Charlie Eckert to have this house.” That was the end of the woma:. -I went to see Mrs. Eckert the next morning a) 1 told her my dream. She said, “I don’t know ot any one who would leavé Charlie anything.” 1 then described the wontian and after that she sad, “Charlie has an aunt answering to that descrip ion, but she won’t leave him anvthing, and, too, she lives in a small town, but I’m sure she won't leave him anything. She has a house and mouey besides. Her name was Mrs. Seahm. MARIE F. SHIPLEY. This old lady died March 23, 1904.5 M-s. Eckert called to me one morning, “Your drcai has come true. That old lady is dead and Charlie got a- notice that he is an heir!” He got some money and the house will be su.d after the death of her husband and then he wul get another share. This lady lived in Canal] Dover, O., which is only a small town. MARIE F. SHIPLEY. In this dream death was foretold: Aug. 19, 1905. Soon after we retired, almost midnight, I be- came nervous and felt that I should see some- thing. At last I gave up, and to my left I saw a hill, and alongside of this hill came a light, almost white “casket” with beautiful flowers, dif- ferent colors. Tried so hard to see what it might be, but failed to do so, as the casket was loaded down with flowers. Thinking all was over, I opened my eyes and still something was working on me, so I closed them again. This time a “black” casket appeared, the head of this one close to the foot of the white casket. It was covered with violets. Both caskets moved along together. This time I was very anxious and felt that I must know, knowing that I should not be able to sleep if I did not find out. Here came Mrs. Laura Spencer’s face out of this black casket. It came three times, going back and forth, till I was satisfied, and all Was over. After this I slept and rested well all night. On the next morning, as I was washing the dishes, I saw the form of a man standing in the | t

doorway leading into the dining room. As |! loosed at it, it disappeared. At nvon, as I was washing the dishes, some ohe touched my left arm;. this same form of a man stood there and disappeared. Had told. Mr. Shipley, when we came downstairs, what I saw after we went to bed, fearing something would happen to Mrs. Spencer's folks. Her youngest son, Harry, too« his own life that very. morning. He /lived on Price Hill, Cincinnati, O. I have never been there. He was a son of this Mr. Smith Spencer. saying that Grandmother McKeever a. m., and that they were going to take Barnesville, O., and she was taken on I had told this to my husband, but had no to tell it to any one else, as the woman died morning. Then I told the dream to mother. old lady, Mrs. McKeever, was a relative of M er Shipley’s brother by marriage. Almost one called her grandmother. She was over 9 ; MARIE F.

When TI got to the house I met three strange women, two of whom were dressed in white.

July 2 we received a letter from Mr. Shimp saying his wife was ill, but the doctor said she was better and he wanted us to come | and cheer her up. July 3 I went there, arriving at 3:30 in the afternoon. Mrs, Shimp died at 1:15 p. m. Mr. Shimp met me at the door and said, “She is dead.” There were the three women, two in white. They were nurses.

Today Mrs. Shipley has so many dreams of death that come true that she no longer tells them for fear of alarming those most concerned. Her dreams touch every sort of subject from the little things of everyday life to tragedies which affect hundreds of people. And what is the explanation? MS lea MS) es 5 oe

Bons The ElfKing, seated in his garden of mushrooms, one day received a message from his brother, the Sun-King, that a little Sunbeam was lost. Calling Whisk. the swiftest of his carriers, the King of the Elves commanded him to set out at once in search of the lost Sunbeam. Whisk, mounting Buzz, the fastest dragon fly that ever was, rode a long way, but stopped for refreshment at a beehive. He met a funny looking old man cracking walnuts, who told him “Wherever you tind happiness a Sunbeam of aRe J BOR: Pe RELY. RL al, ) We

So Whisk knew the Sunbeam wasn’t there, and sadly——
