~_ Capt. Hodges a Probability for President Board of Public Improvements.

Rolla Wells is playing Democratic City While Mayor goif in Atlanta Committee is trying to induce him to accept a renominatien. Mayor Wells has not given the committee any encourage- ment, having steadfastly refused to con- sider the proposition to be the party's leader for the third time. Many members of the City Committee are ardent friends of Mayor Wells and believe he would make the ‘best race of anybody they can nominate. Some other members of the committee are not 80 friendly to the Mayor because he has not accepted their recommendations in making his appointinents. The boomers of the Mayor's candidacy say that these men are willing to lay aside their prejudices and support him if he will ‘gun. The Democratic convention may, tn the Mayor's absence, force the nomi- nation upon him and then refuse to let him withdraw. M. J. Mulvihill, former chairman of the City. Committee, and now chairman of a stb-committee appointed ‘to con- fer with business men relative to candi- dates, is a strong supporter of Mayor Wells. He says that Wells’ record as Mayor would make him an exceedingly atrong candidate for re-election. Build- ing Commissioner Simth, also-a mem- ber of the sub-committee, is another supporter of Wells. It is said practically all of the mem- bers of the City Committee will line up » Yor Wells if he can be induced to take the nomination, despite the fact that Jeptha D. Howe, chairman of the Re- publican City Gommittee, offers to con- tribute $1000 to the Democratic campaign fund if Wells is renominated. Opponents Will Support Wells. Other members of the committee whe are for Wells for renomination are Chairman Thomas J. Ward, Philip Dwyer, Andy Sheridan, Henry Menne, William J. Flynn and Edward J. Farre!l. Tt is said that “Jimmy” Miles, Law- ler Daly, Patrick O'Donnell and W. J. Brennan, who represent an element in the committee generally opposed to Wells, would be willing to support him. The Republicans say they will attack Wells on his free bridge record if he runs again. Congressman Henry 8S. Caulfield, whose term expires March 4, is regard- ed as the ‘‘best bet" in the Republican mayoralty race. According to political report, Congressman Caulfield was not ‘renominated last fall because he was - yeserved for the mayoralty. Caulfield lives in the Twenty-seventh Ward, which is the home of Chairman. Howe, who is the chief Republican slate mak- er. Howe and Caulfield are on the most intimate terms. Caulfield ts young and agerecesive. Caulfield’s Strong Points. Caulfield was elected to Congress in the Fileventh District, which is normally Democratic. Tie was willing to take a “pecond term, and was needed in the dis- trict to carry it, as a Democrat was elected, principally because Caulfield Was not running for re-election. Many ef the Republican leaders regard Caul- field as a mavorilty cand'date without a flaw. Chairman Howe of the Republican City Committee will not say positively who is to he nominated for Mayor, but the Republican slate will soon be ready for public inspection. Howe premises that his candidate for Mayor will be A& man above reproach, who is not as- sociated with any of the so-called ‘‘in- -@ereste,”’ and that he will be an execu- tive who will serve all the people. Many of the advisers of Howe are _ ureing him to decide immediately upon the mayoralty candidate. Capt. W. R. Hodges. former member the City Council, and recorder of the Ipyai Legion, can have almost any of ihe big municipal offices he wil' take. ipt.

“NO FRIEND OF WELLS WILL ASK HIM TO RUN FOR MAYOR AGAIN” Francis Telegraphs Ex-

YiAYOR ROLLA WBRLLS. KITHER Mayor Wells nor N any of us are thinking of politics. No true friend of his will ask or advise him to stand for re-election. His eight years’ administration, brilliant and beneficial fo the city as it has been, is a credit to St. Louis and merits from her people sincere gratitude and lasting rec- ognition. if both conventions, Democratic and Republican, should call him to serve another term, surely he would feel it a duty to accept, His administration has not been partisan in any sense, his first de- sire has been the welfare of the people regardless of party. His con- stant efforts have been to conserve the city’s interests, to which he has sacrificed personal fortune as well as comfort. We may not return home before the conventions are held. DAVID R.

He stood right up in meeting and he they mustn't mind It's told the women that the ‘‘Jocese; clumsy humor” which is being poked at them. “They accuse the women’s clubs of being gossipy,’’ said Mr. Taft. ‘But I want to tell you that I think men are just as fond of gossip as women.” And just think how many for Mr. Taft, too. Furthermore, he told the women that when they go home from club meet- ings and tell their husbands what hap- pened there, the husbands go right out and repeat'it to everybody they meet. Gossip! Ain't It Awful? Take it from Mr. Taft that when think ‘yeur husband is downtown grossed in the cares of business you sadiy mistaken.

Without overcoat or baggage, Harry Puliiam, president of the National League broke away from baseball mag- nates who were trying to keep him-in Chicago, and “‘slid’’ for St. Louis. He arrived at Union Station Friday morn- ing. Pulliam had been lining out some hot ones at Chicago in the past two days— too hot for the magnates to hold. They granted him an “indefinite leave of ab- sence,"’ which in some business institu- tions amounts to a gentle removal, and tried to get him to remain in some quiet place and rest his nerves. The big ‘uns of the league were es- pecially anxious to keep Pulliam from visiting 8t. Louis while he was in the frame of mind which led him to talk about ‘“‘cheap people’ and ‘grasping milllonaires’’ in referring tp the finan- ciers behind the game. Wants to Make a Call, Pulliam, it developed, was especially anxious to be in St. Louis. One rea- son, which he did not conceal, was that e wished to call on a handsome young woman of well-known family, who last summer was almost e daily «ttendant at the Cardinals’ games, and who is an old acquaintance -of the League president. * ° ‘ At the Auditotiem Annex Thursday night, according to the story which comes from Chicago, the magnates were willing to do anything not covered by the penal code to make Pulliam miss his train. : - The Cabby “Strack Out.” August Herrmann and Charlie Eb- betts, it was said Friday, gave a cab- mana $10 bill, with instructions to break a wheel, drive to Lincoln Park or do anything else necessary to keep his ‘‘fare’’ from getting to the Dear- born street station in- time to take the late train for St. Louis. That Pulliam was too much cabby appeared when the League pres!- dent ran into the station, his clothing rain-soaked, just in time for the train, and triumphantly showed the gatekeep- er a ticket and a berth reservation for St. Louis. He had no overcoat, though the weather made outer covering a ne- cessity, and his hands were empty, nor did any baggage follow him. Stanley Robison of the Cardinals was on the same train.

= SON IS _ DISINHERITED

Richard Snell, Who Brought Suit, Will Get but $50. Left to Him.

Special to the Post-Dispatch. SPRINGFIELD, Iil., Mabelle Snell McNamara, the famous “letter writer’’ of the Snell will case, has won her fight for thousands ot dollars of the late Col. Snell's $2,000,000 estate, while the Colonel's only living son, Richard, stands disin- herited. In a decision handed down to@ay the Illinois Supreme Court holds that the De Witt County Circuit Court erred in setting aside the Colonel’s will, which was contested by the son on the ground that the eccentric millionaire was in- sane when he wrote it. The son maintained that Col. Snell was unbalanced mentally and that this was indicated by the votume of letters he received from his women friends, and to support this contention the son introduced in evidence scores: of letters which probably are without a parallel in Illinois court history. Most of them were identified as hav- ing been written by Mabelle Snell, the old man’s grandniece, now Mrs. Me- Namara of Kansas City. , Kstate to B-: Held in Trust. Under the will and {ts codicils, Ma- belle Snell received am annuity, in ad- dition to valuable préperty. Richa, Snell was given $50. The remainder of the estate was to be held in trust until the ‘“‘youngest lining relative’ of the testator should reach maturity. It was estimated that by the time the youngest grandchild of Col. Snell became _. years old, the estate would be worth §1,000,- (00,000. Richard Snell, representing the sev- eral disinherited relatives, filed suit to break the will The first trial resulted in a hung jury. The second trial, held at Clinton, Ill, broke the will, giving to Richard Snell approximately $700,000 in real estate and bank stock. The case was carried to the Supreme Court by the attorneys representing Mabelle Snell McNamara, who did not deny the authenticity of the latters in- troduced by Richard Snell, but who argued that they were not evidence of tmsanity. The Supreme Court upholds this con- tention, saying: ‘“‘The existence of tm- proper relations with a legatee would be no reason at all for setting aside a will, and would not.of themselves prove undue influence. Lerwer Court Erred. The Court holds that there was no evidence that Mabelle Sneil ever spoke or wrote to Col. Snell about the terms of his will. The Circuit Court erred in even considering her letters to Snell, affectionately called ‘‘Bah”’ his intimates, the decision says. “The letters found in the trunk are not competent evidence on the ques- tion of the testator’s mental capacity to make a will,”” the Court continues, ‘‘and Snell's memoranda on the back of the letters shows only moral delinquency. It has no tendency to show either in- sanity or undue influence. “If he was dissolute and profligate and his conduct was disgraceful and reprehensible, it would not affect his ability to make a will. Evidence which tends only to blaoken the reputation of the testator is not admissible, and the Court, in admitting it, was both errone- ous and prejudicial."’ Made Comments on Letters. In Col. Snell's trunk, along with the letters from Mabelle Snell, were found similar communications from a minis- ter's wife and other women in Clinton. They showed that while the old million- aire was planning to disinherit his only son, he was lavishing gifts of money and clothing on his women acquaintances. The memoranda to which the Supreme Court refers consisted of penciled nota- tions on the letters in the trunk. identi- fied as the Colonel's handwriting. “This is a good one,” and “he sure and read this one, it's the best I ever got.’ were typical comments he made on his jet- ters. He was more than 99 years old when he died.

CHICAGO, Feb. 19.—The police today discovered a new clew to the mystery of Miss Ella Gingles, who was found ‘gagged and bound in the Wellington Hotel, and Capt. P. D. O’Brien hurried- “ called a dozen of his detectives into conference and then’ sent them out in pairs to various parts of the city to Anvestigate his new information. Capt. ‘O’Brien refused to give out all the new 4nformation he had gained, but stated ithat one of the clews was as follows: : “fT have found a scrubwoman at the Wellington who has given me one of he most important pieces of informa- tion yet. She says that at 6:30 o’ clock Tuesday she saw a man and a woman, the latter fitting the description of Miss Gingles, standing on the landing of the stairway between the fourth and fifth floors of the hotel and only a few ‘feet from bathroom 527, where the girl gwas found the next day. ' “From where they stood their eyes ‘were level with the floor of the fifth story and they could see along the hall ‘past the bathroom door. They stood ‘there hesitating for a little bit and sthen the scrubwoman went on and ‘thought nothing more of jt. It is prob- ‘able that these people she saw were iMiss Gingles and her confederate. ' The end of this case is in sight right now. It is only a matter of hours. I have increased the force I have for ;the work, we are running down the last clew and this afternoon my men fwijl report to me and we will have a - telean up.

Governor Says Supreme Court Ouster Does Not Stop Fur- ther Proceedings. HE DEFENDS. MAJOR eel

Attorney - General’s Actions Perfectly Proper and Legal, Chief Executive Says.

JEFFERSON CITY, Feb. 19.—Gov. Hadley gave out an interview today declaring the ®wWaters-Pierce Oil Co. is entitled to no immunity from the State in connection with the Supreme Court's judgment of ouster against it. “I have been reading these articles and interviews purporting to come from the representatives of the Waters-Plerce Oil Co.,”" said the Governor. ‘The ef- forts that these parties are making to discredit Attorney-General Major at the beginning of his official term, by charg- ing that the action that he had taken was ‘hasty and ill-advised’ are thorough- characteristic and entirely unwarranted. “The Waters-Pierce Oil Co. was given until Feb. 15 to present evidence to the Court that it had ceased to vio- late the laws of the State. On that date, it filed a paper in court, saying that it would comply with the judgment of the Court and submit itself to its orders. “As it presented no evidence that it had coased to violate the laws of the State by being a party to the combina- tion which was charged to exist, the Attorney-General, after consulting with Mr. Kennish and myself, very properly filed the motion which seems to have displeased the representatives of the Waters-Pierce Oil Co. Tactics Not New, ‘Such tactics, however, are not new and are not likely to mislead anybody. For three years these same parties charged that my action in prosecuting this case was ’ill advised and a mere play to the galleries.’ “Since the decision of the Supreme Court has exploded this claim, they are now directing their attention towards my successor. It is claimed that no pleading was filed by the State in answer to the application of the Standard Oil Co. of Indiana and that Attorney-General Ma- jor and myself are favoring the appli- cation of that company to be permitted to continue to do business under the superMsion and regulation of the State. This statement is also incorrect. “Immediately upon the filing of the application of the Standard Oi] Co. of. Indiana, a pleading was filed in court by the Attorney-General and Mr. Ken- nish, asking that the State be given an opportunity to be heard in case the Court was disposed to consider the ap- plication, and the only public expres- sion that has been made by thé At- torney-General and myself in reference to this application was to the effect that the proposition was not, in our opinion, to be summarily dismissed as unworthy of consideration, x e Denounced Hadley. The p B is also made by ‘the rep- resentatives of the’ Waters-Pierce Oi! Co. that in’ my argument before the Supreme Court I denounced H. Clay Pierce and spoke in approyal of John D. Archbold. “This statement is only partly true. I not only denounced H. Clay Pierce in my argument before the Supreme Cotirt, but also in my argument before the commissioner, and, in fact, on a num- ber of occasions during tHe progress of the case, when he failed to keep. the agreements that he had made and that his attorneys had made for him to ap- pear and testify. “The only comment that I made upon Mr. Archbold was that his testimony was frankly given and substantially correct, a comment which, unfortunate- ty, I was not able to make upon the testimony of Mr. Pierce. “The position that I have consistently taken in this litigation from the very beginning was that there were no acts in violation of the laws of the State which had been committed by the Standard Oil Co. of Indiana and the Republic Oil Co. that the Waters-Pierce Ol] Co., under the management of H. Clay Pierce, had not been equally guilty of, and I have also contended at all times that the question of punishment was a question for the Court alone to decide. “I have always believed, and believe now, that it is inadvisable for a State to impose fines upon business corpora- tions for violations of the law and to leave them free to assess the amount of fines against the public in increased charges. Effort at Concealment, “I am reliably informed that following this judgment a proposition was made by the Pierce interests in the Waters- Pierce Oll Co. to conceal the Standard Oll ownership of a majority of the stock, and in that way enable that ocm- pany to continue to do business in the State. “This proposition was, I understand, rejected by the Standard Oi] Co. The fact that it was made, however, fur- nished a justification for subjecting any proposition that is offered by that com- pany to the closet scrutiny.”

— MAS. MEV RILE PLATT, BAGGOT SEEN AT

NEGRO INSIST Roustabout Declares He No- ticed Missing Man Between 1o A. M. and 12 M.

Detectives Callahan and Rodgers, de- tailed to search the Levee district for clews that might throw light on the disappearance of William Baggot, the missing real estate man, believe they have found evidence to show that Mr. Baggot was on the wharfboat at the foot of Washington avenue between 10 VYclock and noon Tuesday. Tuesday evening Baggot’s hat was found on the Diamond Jo wharfboat on a little pile of snow. It was not wet, broken or dirty, but seemed to have been recently laid there. The detectives called on Capt. Park- er of the steamboat Susie Hazzard, which is tied up at the dock. The crew was gummoned and closely ques- tioned by the detectives and by King Baggot. None remembered having seen Bag- got on the dock until Jim Hudson, a negro roustabout, the marf who found the hat and turned it over to the night watchman at the dock Tuesday night, remembered that he had seen a man who answered the description of Mr. Baggot loitering about the dock in the morning. He gave a fairly good de- scription of Baggot in the man he saw. ' In this connection it is interesting that it was on the Levee at the foot of Washington avenue last July that William Baggot was thrown from his buggy and his head struck an elevated railroad pier, causing an injury that again made itself apparent during his ilIness just before his disappearance. The theory that during his illness some- thing drew him to the spot in a moment of derangement, where he had been hurt, iss considered feasible. This was the only bit of information concerning Baggot that the detectives were able to discover, after a search that took in every Levee building from cellar to garret. Baggot’s sons have reached the con- clusion that he is dead. Neither the Baggot family nor the police place much importance on the reports of Alfred N. Beger of. 2643A Chippewa street, a sewing machine salesman, who says he saw Baggot at Lafayette avenue and Broadway Mon- day afternoon: nor that of William Col- lins of 210 South Eleventh street, that he saw Baggot going North on Eleventh street between 10 and 11 o’clock Monday morning. . Both men say that Baggot was hat- less. Baggot’'s hat was found on a iit- tle pile of snow on the wharfboat of the Diamond Jo line Tuesday evening in as good condition as if it had just come from his head. The police believe that Baggot would not have wandered around without & hat for a day without being identified, for the reason that a hatiess man in the middle of winter would attract at- tention anyway. Baggot was 58° well known that such an ecccntricity on his part would be noted immediately. Baggot was well known to almost Gv- ery policeman, politician and city off.- clal in St. Louis. He could not walk'a block in the downtown section without being greeted by acquaintances. , His habit of walking rapidly, as if he seemed to be anxious to get in @ hurry was noted.

J. Lehmann, Department Store Owner, Says She Pulled His Hair. WIFE BIG AND, STRONG Woman Threw a Chair and a Silver Tray at Husband, Who Seeks Peace. Special to the Post-Dispatch. CHICAGO, Feb. 19.—Edward, J. Leh- mann, millionaire vice-president of the Fair department store, and son of one of the richest women in Chicago, got a divorce from hig wife because she kicked his shins, scratched him, beat him and otherwise abused him. Mrs. Augusta Lehmann, mother of Ed- ward J., owns more vwhicago real es- tate than any other woman and owns the majority of the stock in two of the biggest department stores. The bill of complaint was filed at 4:15 tharked “suppressed for serv- ice,”” and then withdrawn. At the same time an answer by the defendant and a replication by the complainant were filed. All the papers then were taken out of the office of Clerk Charles W. Vail of the Superior Court to the courtroom floors, where search for a Judge to hear the case began. Judge Chetlain consent- ed, and the complainant and a former employe testified. During the hearing Mrs. Lehmann, whose given name is Eva, and her sister sat in the rear of the courtroom, but she was not asked to testify. The Lehmanns were married in Au- gust, 1901, and lived together until Jan. 239 last. Chauffeur Tells of Clash. Axel Fagerli, 2021 Magnolia avenue, a former chauffeur employed by Leh- mann, was the first witness, and told of the incident at the Bismarck Garden in 1906. : “Mr. Lehmann came out to the ma- chine,”” he said, ‘and Mrs. Lehmann behind him. He said: ‘I won't sit with those people,’ and then she struck him on the face.”’ Mr. Lehmann then was called to the stand. He said his residence was at 917 Sheridan road. He told of the marriage and separation, and said they had two sons, Ernest J., 6 years old, and Ed- ward J. Lehmann Jr., 5 years old. “How did you treat Mrs. Lehmann?’ Attorney 8. 8S. Page asked. “As well as I knew how.”’ “She had a violent and hasty tem- per, had she not?’’ He repeated the Bismarck garden in- cident and then was asked what oc- curred in June, 1907. “She broke the dishes on the table,’’ he answered. “Any other acts?” “Yes, in the fall of that year she struck me in the thigh with an instru- ment.’’ “What occurred in January of this year?” “She threw a chair at me and a silver tray.”’ “Has she often struck, kicked, scratched you or pulled your hair?’ ‘Yes, often.”’ “That is, I mean, was it in fun in anger?’’ “In anger.” “Now, has she ever kicked you on the shins?’’ or Wife Big and Strong. “Yes, numerous times.” “When she is angry does she make use of epithets?’ “Yes. Her language is bad.’’ “In addition to what she has done; has she ever threatened you?’’ “Yes.¥ “You spoke of her throwing a silver tray. Describe the tray. Did you?’’ “No, it came within two inches of my head, [t was a heavy card tray, about 8 or 9 inches wide. “Is Mrs. Lehmann a large woman?” “About 5 feet 6 inches.’’ “How much does she weigh?” “About 160 or 166 pounds.” “Is she strong?’ “Yes, very.’’ Divorce then was granted on grounds of cruelty. The principals and their counsel con- ferred and decided on the custody@or the children and other terms of the decree that will be filed. MR.

Yo WAR AND TREASURY PORTFOLIOS STILL OPEN IN TAFT CABINET CINCINNATI, Feb. 19.—The two places still open in the Taft ~«abinet cre the war and treasury portfolios. Jaceb M. Dickinson is under considera- tion for Secretary of War, but Luke E. Wright is by no means an improbability. The War Secretary will come from the South. Judge Vandeventer will not be in the Taft official family. Myron T: Her- rick’s chances are not good. It is not even safe at this time to predict Frank- ling McVeaugh for Secretary of the Treasury, thoagh he is a better bet than Herrick. John M. Reynolds of Chicago probably would be Taft's choice, but Mr. Reynolds so far has not been able to see the use of giving up $50,000 a year for $12,000. It is reasonably certain that all of these men will be in the cabinet: Knox, State; Wickersham, Attorney-General:

AKINS IS EXONERATED

Report Absolves Subtreasurer of Blame and He Will Be Reimbursed.

Thomas J. Akins, United States Sub- treasurer in St. Louis, is entirely ab- solved from all liability for the dis- appearance of $61,500 from the Sub- treasury in October, 1906, and will be reimbursed to that amoynt, according to Washington dispatches, which say the bill to relieve him has been favorably reported to the House.of Representa- tives and probably will be passed in a fev $ l.. its report favoring the byl the House committee severely criticizes the trial of David P. Dyer Jr., who was tried and acquitted of a charge of em- bezzling the money. The report con- tains statements, that the trial was “evidently conducted for he purpose of acquitting Dyer.” Minority reports were submitted by Congressman Shackleford and Kitchin, two Democratic, members of the com- mittee. Frederick W. Lehmann, special assist- ant to the Attorney-General in the trial of the Dyer case, is quoted as nee ot | WO he felt there had been a miscarriage of justice in the trial, and on this point the report says: “The only wonder “ts that he did not say the trial was a farce from begin- ning to end, and conducted solely for the purpose of securtng the acquittal of the defendant, which he would have been more than justified In saying, in view of the facts. “This miscarriage of justice may be partly accounted for by.the fact that the record in this case shows that the defendant was the son of David P. Dyer, United States District Attorney, at St. Louis, and a brother of the Assistant United States District Attorney at the same place."’ The report explains at length that the committee found no evidence that Sub- treasurer Akins had been lax in his at- tention to his duties, or that he was in any degree personally responsible for the shortage in his office. It states there was no report or information of any kind in the possession of Mr. Akins up.to the time of the shortage of ex- travagant habits of Dyer or other em- ployes of the Subtreasury, and _ that there was no occasion for him *#to be suspicious of the employes. There is included in the report state- ments from R. P. Johnson, chief clerk in the Subtreasury; F. W. Lehmann, and the correspondence between Akins and Secretary Leslie M. Shaw and George J. Cortelyou. The minority reports submitted criticise the methods of the Treasury Department, and Mr. Akins’ manage- ment of the Subtreasury in St. Louis. These reports say that the shortage would not have occurred if the Sub- treasury had been under proper supervi- sion. MEBANE RAY OR ALES 2 IOUS A” g. GROWING GIRLS

When They Beceme Thin and|° Pale If Proper Development and Healthful Woman- hood Is to Be Assured. Poverty of blood; scientifically called anaemia, is common in young girls and in persons who are overworked or con- fined within doors and makes its ap- proach in so stealthy a manner that it is often well developed before its pres. ence is recognized. Taken in time the disease is readily curable, the specific being a tonic’ medicine which increases the number of red _ blood-corpuscles thus enabling the blood to carry the life-giving oxygen to all the tissues of the body, Miss Nellie Edwards, of Tomah, Wis., who is a teacher in the publie schools at Wausau, was strong and healthy until her fourteenth year when she went into a rapid decline. For the next year she suffered with anaemia and was not cured until she gave Dr. W illiams’ Pink Pills a trial. She says: “When I was fourteen years of age I went into a decline and was miserable for a year. I had not a particle of col- or and my blood was turning into water. I was very weak and could not walk up stairs without great effort. I had dizzy spells and headaches all of the time and was compelled to leave school. “The doctors pronounced my trouble anaemia but I did not receive much benefit from them. Through a _— bor. who had given her daughte r. Williams’ Pink Pills, I began their use. After q@ short treatment with the pills I was stronger. I quickly regained my health and strengt ‘and have had no occasion to use the pills since.” “The tonic treatment with Dr. Wil- liams’ Pink Pills is successful because it acts directly on the blood, purifying and building it up to its normal health. It thereby keeps the i: healthy even under unusual tions, Send today for a copy ‘of our “Dis- eases of the Blood.” It gives further in- formation about anaemia and is free upon request.

ee (FROM NEW YORK WORLD, JUNE 25, 08.) STATEN ISLAND MAN IS STRONG FOR COOPER

Had Been In a Precarious Condition For Long Time. cen W. Tucker, of Graniteville, Staten Island, is among those who have become strong believers in L. T. Cooper. On y, when interviewed at Cooper’s headquarters he said: I am a well man. “IT came here a month ago, saw this man , got his New Discovery medicine and started taking it. At that time everything I ate caused gas to form in my stomach immediately. For an hour or so after meals I would be in _— which would not leave me al- gether until nearly time for the next IT had to be extremely careful in what I ate, as I could only digest the simplest food. My appetite was very and I was nervous.and ill nourish- figeet due to the failure of my food to rly. I felt tired and run eg acked vitality. I did not sleep oat only getting about . four hours’ sleep a night, and tossing about even when asleep, I would wake in the morning just as worn out went to bed : “A' * month ago I was.a chronic dyspe ‘ caused by catarrh of the stomach.

as when I | “T have been in this condition for a long time and have tried in every way to find something that. would help me. I have been discouraged during the past year to such an extent that I did not believe I would ever be well again. I started to take this medicine with very little faith in it, but I thought perhaps it would do me some good for a while at any rate. It has done more for me than I ever hoped it would. I now have a fine appetite and eat anything I choose. I have no longer any gas in “4 hema and I sleep well at night. ve gained weight and strength, and no longer have the dull, tired feeling that troubled me constantly for several years. There is no question but that Cooper has.a medicine that will work wonders for stomach trouble. It is the only thing I have found that helped me in the slightest.” Cooper’s New Discovery is now on sale at — druggists everywhere. We will send to anyone upon request Mr. Cooper’s booklet, in which he tells the reason for most chronic ill-health. The Cooper Medicine Co., Dayton, 0.

WOOLLEY QUITS AS PROHIBITION PARTY MEMBER —_ St. Kouisans Differ on Late Presidential Candidate’s Reason for Act.

St. Louis temperance advocates differ as to the significance of the action of John G. Woolley of Chicago in announc- ing that he has withdrawn from the Prohibition party, of which he was the eandidate for President of the United States in 1900. In a statement given out in Omaha Mr. Woolley says that he believes e party has accomplished all the good it can and that further work can best be done along non-partisan lines. He will continue to be a Prohibitionist, he says. “The party,” he said, “reached its purpose in bringing the liquor question to a national issue. Having passed its usefulness there is no necessity for its being kept alive.’’ “= agree with Mr. Woolley’s statement that the liquor traffic can best be fought outside of party lines,” said E. J. Moore, superintendent of the Mis- sourl Anti-Saloon League. “That is and always has been the contention of the league. That the Pro- hibition party is-no longer representa- tive of the prohibition and temperance sentiment is well shown by the fact that it polled only 40W in Missouri at the last general eléction.”’ Mrs, Ingalls Net Surprised. “IT am not surprised at: anything Mr. Woolley may say,’ said Mrs. F. H. In- galls, leader of the W. C. T. WU. in Missouri. ‘‘Mr. Woolley has ceased to be in harmony with the temperance element of the United States. -The Pro- hibition party is a mighty force and its influence in restricting the liquor traf- fic has been very great. “The Prohibition party and the W. Se us Anti-Saloon League stands for license, for prohibition in localities, for local option. ‘“‘Mr. Woolley is a fine man, a brilliant man and a friend of mine,” said Dr. W. B. Palmore, editor of the St. Louis Christian Advocate and prominent mem- ber of the Prohibition party. “I would not cdre to discuss what he has said in withdrawing from the party. This thing is in the air now and the people are so sensitive that any expression is apt to be misunderstood or miscon- strued.’’ Mr. Woolley has been a temperance lecturer for years and many consider him one of the greatest of American orators. NEGROES TELL UF PLANS (UR LECTION FRAUD Police Search for Politician Said to Have Been Financ-

ing Scheme.

Police of all districts Friday began a search for a prominent negro politi- clan following a confession made to Capt. Picke] of the North Market Street Station by Percy Emerson and Charles Bennett, negroes. arrested Thursday afternoon for attegnpting to register fraudulently at the polling place of the sixth precinct of the Third Ward. They told Pickel that the negro poli- ticlan gave them and other negroes $2 each to register from 1010 and 1012 Carr street. Fred Thomas, a negro, who was ar- rested with Everson and Bennett, ran out of the Market Street Police Sta- tion while his name was being booked Thursday afternoon.

Towa TH ON PRINT PAPE RECOMMEND House Committee ats Re- duction of Import Tax From $6 to $2. WASHINGTON, Feb. 19.—A reductior in the duty on news print paper from $6 a ton to $2 a ton; the placing of ground wood on the free list, and the establish- ment of a duty of one-twelfth of a cent per pound on mechanically ground wood pulp are the recommendations of the select committee on pulp and paper in- vestigation’ which made its report to the House: today. The report states that it would seem that the production of news print paper or the other very cheap grades of paper are today dependent upon the continua- tion of cheap ground wood produced

from spruce trees, and that that condi- | ‘tion is likely to prevail in the future. An appeal is made for the conserva- tion of the forests. It is also suggested that the national Government start large tracts of young spruce forests. Duty on Ground Wood Pulp. The paragraph recommensed for inser- tion in the tariff bill placing a duty of one-twelfth of a cent per pound on mechanically ground wood pulp, pro- vides that this, article shall be admitted free of cuty from any country, depend- ency or other subdivisions of a Govern- ment which does not forbid or restrict the exportation of or does not impose an export duty or charge upon mechan- ically ground wood or pulp for use in the manufacture of wood pulp. The duties recommended for print paper are On print paper valued at not over 2% cents per pound, one-tenth of a cent a pound. On paper valued at more than 244 cents a pound and not over 2% cents a pound, two-tenths of a cent per pound. HEALS PAINFUL SORES.

SALOON KEEPER FOUND GUILTY OF KILLING WIFE, GETS 12 YEARS —-—- —-—-+-- ——- -—— William Shulte Contended He Was Crazed by Drink When He Shot Woman to Death. William Shulte, a saloonkeeper, was convicted Friday of the murder of his wife, Emma, and sentenced to 12 years in the, penitentiary by a jury in Judge Allen’s court. August 29 last Shulte fired five bullets into the body of his wife in the back yard of their home and saloon at 436] Natural Bridge road. Shulte had been drinking, and when his wife. upbraided him, he’ became enraged and killed her. He was prosecuted by Assistant Prose- cuting Attorney L. C. Dyer and defend- ed by former Judge C.

$e —_— The Man Who Eats Well And Enjoys Food Lives Life As He Should and Gets The Most From It. The man who eats is the man who works, and the man who works is the man who wins. Tireless workers de- pend upon a storehouse of vim and vigor. India is noted for its fasters and its dreamers, Europé and America for their eaters and their workers. In America we have been doing noth- ing but work this past quarter of a cen- tury. That is why our old men say. “In my days no one had dyspepsia.’ Of course, all men in those days ate and worked, now they work and eat. If eating interferes with business, men give up eating. This is good logic for the dollar-getter, but poor wisdom for the man who really wants to live. Abuse of anything God given results in punishment, and man is a pigmy when it comes to cheating his system. If you take from the system that which is intended should remain, or put into it that which is intended should be kept out, you are cheating yourself, and sooner or later pay the penalty. Stuart’s Dyspepsia Tablets are con- centrated vegetable and fruit essences which give the system every fluid stimulant. and ingredient necessary to gain the fullest strength from every- thing which goes into the stomach, or to keep from the system everything which should not lay and decay in it. If you will eat fast and improperly, if you will drink and eat irregularly and to excess, then give to Nature as you do so enough of the essences she demands to neutralize the bad effects of your habits. After a meal take a Stuart Dys sia Tablet, and the meal won't you or your stomach. At a midnight dinner take a Stu- art tablet and you will sleep well and get up without a breath which is filled with the decay of the midnight meal. Fortify your stomach like you do your business. Fortunes when fost can be regained, but the stomach outraged stays with you to the finish, and you know it is there. If you want to know What these tab. lets will do, buy a package from any druggist, price 50 cents, or send us your name and address & trial = by mai P- urt

CANT BE COERCED BY INDICT MENTS Indianapolis Editors Comment on Action of Federal Grand Jury.

BRYAN IS INDIGNANT

Russianization .of American Press Well Under Way, He Declares. Special tc the Post-Dispatch. INDIANAPOLIS,. Ind., Feb. 19.—Fol- lowing is the Indianapolis News’ edi- torial comment on the Federal grand jury’s indictments in the Panama Canal case: “The owners of the Indianapolis News were yesterday indicted by a grand jury of the District of Colum- bia on a charge that they had crim- inally libeled Theodore Roosevelt, W. H. Taft, Elihu Root, William Nelson Cromwell, J. Pierpont Mor- gan, Charles P. Taft and Douglas Robinson. Similar indictments were also returned against the New York World, its owner, Mr, ~ ‘itzer, and two of its editors, Mr. v+.n Hamm and Mr. Lyman. The issue present- ed by the indictments is, of course, one fcr the courts; so in regard to that, little or nothing need be said. But there is a wider issue concern- ing which, we think, a good deal will be said. Perhaps it is needless to say that the course of the News will be in no way influenced or affected by what has happened. We shall continue to discuss public questicns on their merits, as in the past, and to criticise public men without either personal or partisan bias. “This is the phase of the question that most concerns the public. It has a right to know that the functions of a free and independent newspaper will not cease to be performed. and also to know that no personal ele- ment will be allowed to obtrude itself in any of the criticisms that we may feel called upon to make, We shall not be coerced into silence, nor tempted into unfairness. Believing that the great principle of freedom of the press is at stake, we must do what we can to uphold it. No, more important service than this can be performed by a newspaper, espegial- ly at this time. The public, to which alone the News acknowledges any obligation, may feel sure that this paper will continue to serve its in- terests as it sees them. To gum up, we ghall print the news and tell the truth about it—as it is given us to gee the truth.’’ Delavan Smith, owner, and Charles R. Williams, editor of the News, are pre- paring to fight efforts to compel their appearance in Washington, contending | that the libel, if committed at all, was committed in Indianapolis. RUSSIANIZATION OF THE PRESS, BRYAN GALLS IT Specta: te the Post-Dispatch, LINCOLN, Neb., Feb. 19.—Williain J. Bryan, discussing in the Commoner the indictments for libel found against the owner and editors of the New York World and the owners of the Indian- apolis News, says: “Between decisions like that of Jus- tice Wright and libel suits like the one instituted against the New York World, the Russianization of the Re- public’s press seems well along.” Declaring it regrettable that Presi- dent Roosevelt cannot see himself as others see him, Bryan also ridicules the President's veto of the census bill and intimates there is a good deal of the bogus in his protestation of reform. Bryan says: “President Roosevelt has vetoed the bill providing for the taking of the next census. He bases. his veto’on the clause providing that appointments shall be made on the basis of non- competitive examinations instead of through the civil service, In closing his veto message the President protests against permitting the griat census undertaking to be :narred by permitting it to be turned into an engine to further the self-interests of that sec- tion of the people which makes a pro- fession of politics, and then the Presi- dent refers to the evil, effects of the spous system and of the custom of treating appointments to the public service as personal perquisites of pro- fesional politicians, “This must have sounded well in the ears of those candidates for the Re »ublican nomination for the presi- dency who had not the favor of Theo- dore Roosevelt. He used the entire Federal brigade to further the sgeif- interest of that small section of the peope which makes a profession of politics and is known as the Roose- velt-Taft coterie. “He treated appointments to the public service.as the personal pér- quisites of, Theodore Roosevelt, than whom no more professional politician has ever performed before a delighted people. It is possible that with all his experience Mr. Roosevelt cannot see himeeif as others see him. Does hs imagine that the people are simple enough to regard as genuine his pre- tended inaignation lest the Federal brigade be turned into an engine to further the self-interest of the smal! ecetion of the people which makes a yrocenen © of polices?” ANOTHER SNAP FOR ST, LOUISANS Choice of hundredey of men’s and young men’s sults ana overcoats left from the great $10 sale, including many ‘Baltimore tailor-made

AN ANCIENT ART MODERNIZED. The chapter of John D. Rockefeller’s reminis- cences in the current month’s World’s Work, “The Difficult Art of Getting,” is full of instruction for those desiring to emulate his notable example of purse-filling. So much mastery of the subject Was proved by Mr. Rockefeller that he reminded us of that ancient and renowned schoolmaster mentioned by Bunyan in “Pilgrim’s Progress.” Readers will recall that after Mr.-By-ends of the town of Fairspeech had failed to burden Chris- tian and Hopeful with his company and con- verse, he fell in with three former school friends, who are thus described in the book: The men’s names were Mr. Hold-the-World, Mr. Money-love and Mr. Save-all; men that Mr. By-ends had formerly been acquainted with; for in their minority they were school- fellows, and were taught by one Mr. Gripe- man, a School-master in Love-gain, a market- town in the County of Coveting, in the North. This school-master taught them the Art of Getting. either by violence, cousenage, flat- tery, lying, or by putting on a guise of Re- ligion; and these four gentlemen had at- tained much of the Art of their Master, so that they could each of them have kept such a school themselves, However great the knowledge and skill of Schoolmaster Gripeman, who kept the~ Art-of- Getting Institute at Love-gain in Bunyan’s time, we feel sure that he would stand but a poor chance against the Rockefeller School of this 7 The crude methods, 3 pe ind simple processes of that primitive time have ' been so highly modernized and perfected that Mr. Gripeman himself would scarce be able to pass an entrance examination in the lowest grade of the American school at Pilburg. : i, Li Ae rr !

a i "SS 3 AN APOLOGY TO A REPORTER. On Nov. 20; 1908, the Chicago Inter Ocean said that the Bankers’ Creditors’ Committee on the affairs of A. Booth & Co. would lay the affairs of that corporation before the grand jury. The next day the Inter Ocean printed a statement from Ernest A. Hamill, chairman of the Bankers’ Creditors’ Committee, denying that the commit- tee would start criminal prosecutions. The Inter Q@cean discharged the reporter’ who wrote the original item. On Feb. 16, 1909, Mr. Hamill pub- lished this statement: | We propose instituting criminal proceedings against guilty parties in connection with certain A. Booth & Co. transactions just as soon as the neces- Gary evidence can be secured. We have determined to ferret out just who the guilty ones are at once. sce must be punished for these fraudulent acts. We can’t let them all get away. Commenting on this, the Inter Ocean says: ‘The lie lay between Mr. Hamill and the reporter. The Inter n assumed that Mr. Hamill was a man of honor and the reporter was a Mar. For both mistakes it now offers its apologies to the reporter. “This newspaper is often asked why it ever prints oa that are ‘not true. Here is a case in c case of Ernest A. Hamill, president of Corn Exchange Bank and chairman of the kers’ Creditors’ Committee on the affairs of A. Booth & Co. That's why. Ah A ie i i

To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. There seems to be a desire in the minds of a great many persons (both men and women) to strive to regulate the business and. conduct of everybody around them of in their reach, but who have not the moral courage to come face ‘to face with’those whom they wish to regulate. So they resort to the pen. But they are such cowards that they resort to fictitious names. When I get so low down that I cannot sign my own name to what I write, then I am not fit to live longer. Yours for fair deal. GEORGE W. TURNURE.

The Spring Eleciion. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. For the spring election the issues and men should be nonpartisan, based and selected on merit and fitness alone, having in view only the best interests of St. Louis and its people, believing that party lines in municipal elections count for naught, and men se- lected who are willing and fearless to see that the or- dinances are obeyed by rich and poor, the large cor- porations as-well as the small business man. The next four years should solve the following problems: 1. the building of a, free bridge. 2. Public utilities commission. 3. Charter revision. 4. Grade crossings. 5 public ownership of public utilities.’ 6. Sunday sa- loon and liquor traffic. 7. Social evil. 8. Indigent and unemployed. 9. Surface, subway and elevated transportation. 10. Arbitrary and terminal! facilities. ll. Equitable, general and special tax law. 14 Home rule. 13. Better and more economic illumination. 14. water power development. 15. Honest elections and honest count. 16. Local woman suffrage. 17. Park and boulevard system. 18. Franchise compensation, regulation and enforcement. 19. Co-operation of cap- ital, labor and consumer. 2. Properly. compensated, } untrammeled and unallied public officials, to enforce laws and ordinances justly and equably. The Mayor, as the chief officer of the city,-should be a man with a broad knowledge and understanding of all these questions, with the energy and courage to initiate and force action on them, and who has no financial or other interest or association that will deter him from such action through either fear or favoritism. GEO. F. DRIEMEYER. Schedule on Vandeventer Line. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. I have noticed a number of complaints referring to the service furnished.on the Vandeventer line, I have taken the trouble to ascertain from a ‘number of the motormen the exact schedule upon which these cars run, and, barring the unavoidable delays at the Tower Grove grade crossing, the cars run regu- larly as follows: Brom 5 to 6 a. m., seven minutes space; from 6 to 8:30 a. m., three minutes’ space; from 8:30 a. m. to 4 p. m., six minutes’ space; from 4 to 7 p. m., three minutes’ space; from 7 to 10 P. m., six minutes’ space, and from 10 to 12 midnight, from seven to ten minutes apart. JOHN B. DEMPSEY. Insecurity of the System. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch, J. M. McKnight, 10 years ago rich and president of the German National Bank of Louisville, Ky., died a pauper at the Bellevue Hospital in New York on Dec. 23. He had been picked up on the street and it was found that he was starved to death. There are tens of thousands bordering in starvation who a few years ago were rich. No man or woman is safe under this system of scheming and deception. It is enough to break one’s heart to read of the destitution and wretchedness chronicled in the daily press... And if attempts are made to rescue these, another stream of them follows and increases the volume. Some- thing must be done to stop making poverty. Of what use to spend your energies In caring for the sick that drink the polluted waters of a stream, when people are busy filling the headwaters with pollution? Would it not be common sense to go to the head of the stream and prevent the pollutioa from being emptied into the water? With all the charities and benevolence, the mass of poverty in every country is increasing at a tremendous rate. The world is rich enough, but the private owner- ship of industries gives most of the products to a few and the many perish. In the struggle for the spoils taken from labor, McKnight went down among those he had been skinning and he was left to his fate. Riches today is no security against want to- morrow. The remedy is the public ownership of the means of production and distribution. : .-GEORGE LYONS. Poles Oppressed by Germany. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. In Sunday's Post-Dispatch I noticed an article which tries to show how in Russia, the most back- ward nation of Europe, the phonograph records of patriotic songs are censured and forbidden to be sold to-the Russiah people, so that they would not learn the true meaning of freedom. The writer seems to think it rather strange than such a state of af- fairs exists there, yet forgets that in Germany, the so-called leading nation of the Continent, the same state of affairs exists, Polish phonograph records are confiscated there, not because they are rebellious or dangerous to the Empire, but because they bring back to the Poles in Germany recollections of the past, sung and spoken in their native tongue. Even in some of the churches and schools, prayer-books and catechisms are confiscated and the people forced to pray in the Germanic language, a tongue they do not know. Oh, fate, thou dost lay heavily thy hand upon the oppressed! For even in nations where “knowledge and enlightenment” are supposed to reign supreme, Oppression bears heavily upon the people. ' J, BOLIAU. Pensions for Policemen. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. I notice that there is a movement on foot to pen- sion police officers who are 55 years and over and who have been on the force for 25 years or more. Why should these men be pensioned? How many po- lice officers, Say out of 1000, have ever incurred any incapacitating injury while in line of duty? Few. They are well paid, have short hours, free street car rides, and other free things too numerous to men- tion. They are well and seasonably dressed and able With the sal- ary they receive and with 2 years to their record, it. seems to me they ought to have their little pen- sion made. I’m “ferninst’’ the pension. FRED E. D. -___o Darwinism Misunderstood. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. There is unnecessary prejudice against Darwin and hig system of natural philosophy, because it is un- derstood too literally and given too narrow an inter- pretation. In the broad and universal view of evo- lution, man did not necessarily descend from an ape. but the ape and monkey family have branched off from a common ancestor whose descendants havé taken an upward series of steps and become men. At a certain period in the distant past the beings (we don’t know what they were like) wh ants are now nothing but apes had the to take the higher step in evolution portunity which would opportunity. But some of the same s to take the step. This is a different understanding i \Fuji's clear-cut peak ‘ Poems by Her Majesty Haruko, Em- press of Japan: Ha! NOBODY a See mete +

| JUST A MINUTE FOR VERSE AND HUMOR — Written for the Post-Dispatch by Clark McAdams, IN AFRICA. HE shades of night were falling fast As through the jungle swiftly passed A wounded lion bady hit And followed by a crowd, to-wit: One ez-president, — Four trackers, , Two gun bearers, One water boy, Three photographers, One taxidermist, Two skinners, And four ammunition bearers. At length the lion reached his lair, Backed into it in great despair, And vowed so long To fight, though sorely wounded, viz: One leg shattered, Two knife slashes on back, One dum-dum bullet in head, Two steel-nosed. bullets in body, One ear blown off, And bitten through two ribs on left side. ‘The shouting and the tumult grew, The angry bullets spat and flew, And when the king The following fireworks were shot: Siz skyrockets, Two flower One spinwheel, Four Roman Three Booker Washington chasers, Two medium-sized bombs, And one son-of-a-gun. f as life was his of beasts was not pots, candles,

The widow came up strong at the opening of the second round. “I’m the equal of any man without my means!" she declared, knocking the wind out of'me. But before she could follow up her advantage I countered with this. ‘‘There’s only one man that thinks so, and you hurt him so with your base suspicions that hei! never tell you.” She smiled weakly at this speech and I caught her off her guard and swung for the solar plextis. But she danced away from me and the referee called ‘“Time.” Round 3. Neither of us landed in this round.

I guess a well-planted heart blow would teach any one of them that archery went out of fashion hundreds of years ago, and that anyone who has met these last few centuries has had to put on the gloves. Everybody knows, of course, that I’m the unBeaten’ champion of the world. There’s no man or woman alive who hasn't had a little go with me at one time or another, and, of course, I’ve always gotten the best of it. Maybe

I’ve lost a few decisions in my long and triumphant career, but in most instances I was always fouled and the referee bought up by my opponent. The worst I ever got was a draw, and that was with a broker, with a solar plexus you could use for a punching bag without knocking him out. I’ve engaged in s0 many. battles in my time that any other fighter’s record compared with mine reads like the rolicall of a Methodist Sunday school. And I'm still willing to meet all comers--bar none. Perhaps the hardest fought battle of my career was a six-round bout I[ pulled off with Mrs. Samuel Squeeze- penny, for the toughest opponents I've ever had to encounter have been misers and widows, and I don’t mind saying that Mrs. Squeezepenny was the finest specimen of both varieties I have ever met. For she held on to a dollar with the confiding grip ‘of a bride leading the bridegroom away from the altar and cruel words he can't forget, and she was twice a widow. The match between us was arranged by an elderly lawyer who needed the purse, which on this occasion consisted of the Widow Squeezepenny’s fortune of $500,000. He was a dashing old®@blade, who had missed several excellent, fortunes when they wete fairly within his grasp, and I knew he would make any woman over 49 a good husband. The gong sounded one evening at 8 o'clock, shortly after the lawyer had taken a flat in the big apartment house, one of many valuable ‘properties which the widow owned, and in which she resided. The widow had been anxious to meet me for a long time. The only difficulty Was about terms. Like all women, she believed that though age might have sét a limit to her physical charms, her fatal fascinations must endure forever. She wanted to be loved for herself alone, she said. Cupid might play upon her heartstrings, but her pursestrings she would look after herself, thank you. When it cama to a question of money she wanted the stakes, the side bets and the gate receipts. I was game for even that, because I'm in the ring for giory, but I had -to think of my side partner and his unpaid bills. ‘So I held off for a while, and finally she agreed to meet me on my own terms—the win- r take everything. Round 1. I danced,around the ring feinting and running away from the widow, all the time she trying to land a body biow. All the time I was sizing her up and trying to find out her weak ‘ It’s always a good plan to think » the deadilest insult you can and it on your opponent. So I handed he widow this between the eyes: “You're too old to love,” I said. “Am I?’ she answered, with a vicious left Swing that went wild. ‘“‘Yes,’’ I replied, leading again for her vanity and landing igGuarely. ‘ n would marry you." ‘ ldn't he indeed!”’ she retorted, “I kthow one that would, a fine man, toa - What better use can 5 ° * , > t ' a mes ¥ ae * ‘ ie * _? oe : a 4 ke ‘you make of a nickel Sivan to exchange it for cake of Ivory Soap? - What else will give you so much satisfac- tion? .

I knew that if it came to a clinch the decision was mine, but she’d paid her year’s taxes the day before, and was thinking so hard of the value of her coin that I couldn't get any- where near her. Round 4. This time I led for her jealousy. “TI saw a friend of yours walking with a young lady this after- noon,” I said. “A very pretty girl; young .enough to be your granddaugh- ter.”’ “I's glad of it,’’ she answered, “theugh I feel sorry for any poor young girl that old rake is seen with. “Old rake?!’ I repeated, upper-cutting for her vanity again. “The man is eating his heart out for love of you. He doesn’t care what he does. You’ve made him desperate.’”’ ‘‘Nonsense!” was her re- joinder, but her eyes flashed and I saw by the way she breathed that she was getting winded. The gong saved her again. Round 5. I decided the fight had lasted long enough, so I waltzed right after the widow and rushed her to the ropes, swinging right and left for her reputation. ‘People are. talking about you and a certain party,’ I said. ‘“They say you're making a stronz drive for him, but that he’s tired of you and running after a younger woman. They say he might have married you if he could have done so with self-respect, but you refused to make him inde- pendent, and now he’ll quit you.” “I could whistle him back tomorrow,” the widow shrieked, but she dropped the deeds to some very fine real estate in her excitement and forgot to pick them up. Round 6. The deeds were still on the floor when the round was called. It was

evident the widow had forgotten all about them. If I wasn’t speaking of a lady I’d say she was groggy by this time. “If you make a man the price of your love,” I said, leading for’ her vanity again, “‘why bold out on a few hundred thousand dollars?’’ The widow went to the floor from the sheer shock of this proposition. She knew I had her this time, but as the referee counted seven she managed to scramble to one knee. ‘“‘Eight, nine,” he called, and I began to think she was good for an- other round. Just then she caught sight of the deeds. ‘‘Ten,’’ called the referee, but instead of getting to her feet she reached for the precious papers, missed them and was counted out. In my next I shall tell how I nearly lost to Saveet Sixteen.

| PULLIAM OUT OF BASEBALL, EXPERTS SAY a

——— -_ wr Belief Prevails That Indefinite Leave of Absence Granted Him Will Be Made Permanent.

~~ BY JAMES CRUSINBERRY. B Pulliam had administered to club owners. the indefinite vacation which was granted him, with full pay, in Chicago that ASEBALL has probably dropped the curtain on Harry Pulliam, president » of the National League, now in St. Louis on a leave of absence granted by the magnates at Chicago yesterday, following a series of shocks which It is the belief of nearly every one lg merely a kind way of letting the popular young man down without hurting his feelings. Pulliam refuses to resign, he says, and will fight to the ditch to prevent being ousted from his position at the head of the organization. At this time, when the baseball politics which Pulliam so ripped up in his speeches is the focus of popular attention, it is unlikely that the big men of the game will take part In any further? mud-slinging contests and that the matter will be allowed to rest until the next election of officers. In the meantime, Secretary and Treasurer Heydler of the League was appointed yesterday to act as president while Pul- liam is enjoying his vacation. That Pulliam will be re-elected.is not gener- ally believed, even by his many friends and well-wishers. Pulliam, since the memorable Merkle Incident in the league championship race of last year, at New York, called upon him to make an unpleasant ae- cision, has felt the strain of his of-

ficial duties. He himself says he has been overwrought and overworked to the point of a breakdown, and he shows the effects of the strain. The events that led up to the Chicago meetings, involving the row between Murphy of the Cubs and the National Commission, bore heavily on him, and when he arrived at Chicago this week in advance of the schedule meeting his first step was to denounce Murphy. Notwithstanding that club owner apolo- gized to Dreyfuss and to the National Commission, Pulliam was _ still unap- peased and threatened to cut loose at the meeting with the bribery case, the reopening of the ticket scandal, de- nunciations of his’ enemies and other political skyrockets. He refrained from breaking out, however, and for two days it was thought that the meet- ings wou.d pass off without any un- pleasant climax. Climax Came With Tirade Delivered at Big Banquet UT at the banquet given by Chas. kK Comiskey, Pulliam’s grievance, long dammed up, broke out into a violent denunciation of Owner Mur- phy, of Brush, Ebbets and Dreyfuss, alleging a conspiracy to unseat him from the presidency and of unfair meth- ods employed by club owners. Pulliam followed this up yesterday with a card fn which he stated that money-mad- hess would prove the undoing of base- ball promoters, among whom, he added, were mary “cheap’’ men, whose sole @esire was to pile up dollars and not {- @avance sport. He added that he would not resign his position, but that he would refuse to attend any more league meetings until he got a ‘‘square deal.”’ He did not say what he thought that ought te be. Friends tried to induce Pulliam to moderate his utterances and to change his views. But he continued talking in the same strain and refused to be present at the meetings of the league. He kept the other members of the Na-

tional Commission waiting for hours. The magnates apparently thought that Pulliam was seriously ill, and, indeed, he had stated he was, from overwork and worry over baseball problems and decided that a vacation was best for him. At their meeting yesterday after- noon they decided to grant him an in- definite period:of rest at full pay. Last night, following the close of the meetings, friends of Pulliam endeavored to induce him to remain in Chicago. éven going so far as to hold up his bag- gage and try to make him miss his train; but Pulliam eluded them and came here, The naming of Heydler as acting pres- ident of the league, which also makes him a member of the National Commis- sion, is believed by many to be the ending of the baseball career of Harry Pulliam. The magnates didn’t dare discharge him openly, because there was no cause. Pulliam had been absolutely honest in all his remarks. St. Louis Clubs Failed to Strengthen at Chicago Meet WNER R. L. HEDGES and Mana- O ger McAleer of the Browns re- turned to the city this morning after the strenuous days of this week in the Windy City. Both the local club owners returned empty handed, though they had expected to land one or two baliplayers to help the St. Louis teams this summer. Both disposed of players, getting only Cash in return. Hedges sold Joe Yeager, utility man, to the Montreal club, anu Sid Smith, catcher, to the Atlanta club. Owner Robison of the Cardinals disposed of Pitcher Stoney McGlynn to Milwau- kee. Both managers fell down in mak- ing a deal to strengthen the clubs. Mc- Aleer had it all arranged for Old Cy Young to come to St. Louls from the Boston club in exchange for one pitcher, one young infielder and a bit of cash. But the Boston owner gave McAleer the elip and the old twirler went to Cleve- It seemed afterward that Boston had little intention to let St. Louis get him. Manager Bresnahan of the Cardinals aid not come to St. Louls teday. He left Chicago Wednesday night, suppesedly for his home in Toledo, but it was hint- ea that he was in reality going to one or two points in Ohio and Indiana t sign, if possible, two or three youn ballplayers for the Cardinals. Manager McAleer announced this go to French Lick Springs next week with the other veterans of the Browns’ club. He is going to Hot Springs, be- ginning his training for anothér season. A peculiar incident of yesterday’s meeting of the National League was the calling in of Ban Johnson, presi- dent of the American League, to advise the older league magnates on the al- leged bribery case in New York. The question was taken up by the National Leaguers in the afternoon and a hurry call was sent for Johnson, when they themselves were at a loss how to proceed. Johnson came and. hearing what evidence they had on the mratter, suggested a resolution passing the case up to the National Commis- sion. The resolution was adopted and Johnson, Herrmann and Heydler will now proceed to bring the issue to a head. If the evidence can be authen- ticated, there will be a sensation ex- posed that will upset one or two of the biggest men in the game and pos- sibly banish them entirely. It was while Johnson was giving his advice to the National League mag- nates that President Murphy of the Cubs offered his public apology to the American League president for the un- kind remarks made of him in the past. Johnson accepted the apology in the spirit in which it was given and ‘de- clared he wotld give up his idea of ellininating Murphy from baseball.

They overwrought, overworked Harry Can you beat are so engrossed that they let themselves be stampeded, by the hysterical utterances of Puliiam, actually take importance them? They in their own like a covey of quail that some rake-helly of a bird-dog pup has wantonly romped through. Following the somewhat indefinite re- marks of the National's president, they looked fearfully about the country to see if the whole structure of basebal! had been rent asunder, and, with re- markable forgetfulness of past differ- ences, friend and enemy alike are now banded together in the endeavor to get between Pulliam and the newspaper of- fices. Such strange results are presented as that of Charles Murphy apologizing to Ban Johnson; of Herrmann and Murphy passing the Judas kiss and forgetting the Judas; of suppression of publicity in the bribery case; and other incidents that make one doubtful whether he should merely smile or curl off a scath- ing, scornful scowl. ENTLE magnates, be not delud- | ed by the words of Mr. Pulliam, who says that you are killing the national game of baseball. You may be all he says of you, for what we fans know or care; but don't worry about destroying our national pastime. Before you were, baseball was. After you, it still will be. You are the merest incident of a sport that we played in knickerbockers, and would play today if the rheumatism had kept out of our joints. If you do not supply us with the brand of baseball we want, we will eliminate you, in time. If your meth- ods should, as Mr. Pulliam suggests, become too coarse, we will try to find somebody with more refined methods of getting the money. But be sure we will always have baseball with us. So, take Mr. Pulliam’s word lightly, when he says you are killing baseball— it is only yourselves you are hurting. But in that respect, it is up to you to commit suicide, after all, if you See fit.

The East is unanimous in believing that Driscoll is in every way Attell’s equal, except, perhaps, in footwork. In fact, he is so well esteemed that he is the choice to beat the graduate of the Cali- fornia reform school. E have seen Attell here in the W. old days, and can recall the. fact that not once was he ap- proached in his artisanship. Tommy Sul- livan once knocked him out; but the in- tegrity of the fight was impeached. He was regarded then, as new, as the near- est thing to perfection in speed and ring tactics that existed. Imagine then, his equal getting into the ring with him— that will be tonight’s battle. It is the fashion to believe that all habitues of fight clubs want knock- down, sanguinary affairs. That is not true. That type of boxing fan likes dog fights. The bulk of those who attend ring affairs now don’t want to see milk- men fight, but boxers who know how to ward as well as to wield. The mauling game, where the winner reduces his op- ponent from Man to Thing, is dying. If boxing survives, it will have to be after the style of the contest that will be seen tonight, when Briton and American meet.

Local Bowling Records May Not Be Recognized atc =

re FF HE continued smashing of world’s a tenpin records on the Grand al- leys by men who, on neutral runs cannot average 200 for three games, is becoming a joke in local bowl- ing circles. It is also possible that, when a claim for the marks is put in to the American Bowling Congress at Pittsburg the records may not be al- lowed to stand. Last night the Burkes of the St. Louis Tenpin League, shooting against the Grands on the Grand alleys, got a total of 1207 pins in the second game. This ties the world’s record mark of the old Koenig-Kaiser team of this city and also held by the Howard-Majors of Chicago. The Burkes team, if their mark is allowed to stand, will receive five gold medals for tne highest single game rolled by any five-men team on alleys registered with the A. B. C. this esagson. Only tast week Harry Kicker’s Heav- ies got 1190 pins on the Grand alleys. A short time previous the Schreidts got

1183 pins. Any of these marks is ‘high

No score seems impossible on No. 5 and No. 6 at the Grand. Jellison or Rothwell will wager even money that they can roll 220 or better. They will not wager that they can average 200 on new alleys that are not slotted. It is a favorite saying with bowlers, when a new mark is set on the Grand, that the “rut’’ must be growing deeper. Local bowiers who are claiming world’s record marks may find that the A. B. C. will become dubious when shown the list of high scores established on the Grand alleys this season by but average bowlers. i chester.

ROOSEVELT TAKES INDIAN’S HEAD OFF THE NEW PENNIES Lincoln’s Likeness to Be Substituted _—Washington Startled by Innovation. By Wire From the Washington Bu- reau of the Post-Dispatch. WASHINGTON, Feb. 19.—President Roosevelt has ordered the most startling innovation ever made in the coinage of the country. He has approved 4 design for a cent piece which is to bear the figure of Lincoln's head instead of the so-called Indian head that has been used since the coinage of copper cents of the present size was begun. Hitherto the metallic coinage of the country has never borne the figure of any particular person. Instead of fol- lowing the European eoinage habit—that of having all coins bear the head of the reigning monarch—American mints have produced pieces bearing the heads of either Liberty or the American Indian. The portraits of eminent Americans have been engraved on banknotes, treas- ury notes and stamps, but not hitherto on coins, President Lincoln will be the first American whose memory will be honored by having a coin struck with his like- ness. The new coin is to appear in about a month, unless President Taft should decide to restore the Indian head, POTS ARB ie as ao 8 8 China to Have Naval Department.

CRYPT AT ANNAPOLIS WILL BE GRAVE OF JOHN PAUL JONES House Committee Reports Favor- ably on Bill Appropri- ating $135,000, WASHINGTON, Feb. 19.—The House Committee on Naval Affairs has report- ed favorably the bill passed by the Senate appropriating $135,000 for finish- ing the crypt of the chapel at the An- napolis Naval Academy as the perma- nent resting place of the body of John Paul Jones. The crypt has been left in the rough with exposed concrete and brick and the appropriation SOught would provide for a suitable finish and decoration. Gen. Horace Porter, former Ambassa- dor to France, who was largely instru- mental im arranging for the removal of the body of the hero of the Bon Homme Richard from France, expended $35,000 out of his private purse in ar- ranging for the removal. He has sus- gested that this amount be appropriated for the completion of the crypt instead of for the purpose of reimbursing him. rs tencenneteeesneneietieentememeneen Sheck Kills Carbonda 1.) Man.
