The free list, as reported by the Senate Committee, in the main re- mains as it is in the existing law. There is one change, however, in the free list which is of great inter- est, and that is the provision in re- gard to free art. The House wisely made paintings and sculptures more than 20 years old free, and the Sen- ate Committee has added to these works of art generally, including ar- tistic antiquities more than a hup- dred years old. The Senate committee has taken no action as yet upon the maximum and mimium provisions or the ad- ministrative sections of the bill. It proposes to report its amendments to these most important features of the act at a later date. It has adopted this course because it has seemed to the Senate committee of the high- est importance to secure immediate action upon the tariff and it felt confident that time could be saved by reporting the section imposing duties first, and the maximum and minimum and administrative fea- tures later. When the committee met this morn- ing the Democratic members offered no objection to reporting the bill. TAFT WILL SIGN ANY BILL WITH CANNON-ALDRICH 0 K By Wire From the Washington Bureau of the Post-Dispatch. WASHINGTON, April 12.—It can be stated positively that President Taft es Be will not veto any tariff bill that may be passed by the present Congress. He has expressed satisfection with the Payne bill ag it passed the House, and he is satisfied, from. assurances, that there will be no “radical” changes in the Senate. Mr. Taft is depending for his informa- tion - on - the House and Senate Republicans. The President, before he entered office, was frank in the admission that he, per- sonally, is not a tariff expert. He made the statement at Hot Springs and re- peated it when in» Washington that he would vet? any tariff bill passed at the extra session of Congress that was not a thorough and honest revision of the Dingley bill. In view of Mr. Taft's statement that he is not a tariff expert, the question arose, how was he to decide whether the bill passed was or was not a real carrying out of the Chicago platform? His reply was that he would rely on the ‘analysis of men who knew: men who were not interested in the legisla- tion personally, but on whose judgment he could rely. The President-elect had outlined a plan to appoint a board of personal ad- visers to whom he could refer the tariff bik offered to him by Congress. But that board has not been formed, nor, so far as can be learned, is the Presi- dent even informally consulting friends on the subject.

CHICAGO, April 12.—Contrary to ex- pectations, John Dickinson, the broker of New York and Chicago whose firm, John Dickinson & Co., recently failed, did not appear before Referee in Bank- ruptcy Eastman in this city today. His attorney, George W. Plummer, stated that he was ignorant of Dickinson's whereabouts.

Judge Klein had been trying to get the case before the grand jury. “I told Jones,” Howe testified, “what I thought of him for issuing an informa- tion against Peper.” Woman Badly Hurt. Mrs. Lyon was badly injured in the accident. Thirteen ribs and her shoul- der blade were broken, and there was a compound fracture of the right arm. She had alighted from a street car, and was being helped across the street by her husband when she was struck by Mr. Peper’s automobile. She was in the hospital for months, and for a time it was thought she would not recover. Everett Paul Griffin, Assistant Cir- cuit Attorney in Judge Fisher’s court, stated that he acted on instructions from Circuit Attorney Jones in dismissing the case. When seen by a Post-Dispatch re- porter Mr. Peper made the following statement: . “T did not employ Mr. Howe nor had I anything to do with him in this case, I employed Judge Klein. You will have to see him for any further statement of the case. There was nothing to the case anyway. The newspapers made what case there was.’ Got Howe to Handle Details. Relative to Mr, Howe's employment in the case, Judge Klein said: “I did not want to spend all my time looking after the case. I wanted some- one familiar with the criminal practice to look after the details. I spoke to Mr. Howe about it before Mr. Jones was elected Circuit Attorney. He was an Assistant Circuit Attorney at the Four Courts when I was on_the criminal bench, and I thought well of his ca- pacity. He tried cases before me when I was there, and I knew he was fa- miliar with criminal procedure. “When I employed Mr. Howe there was nothing in my mind that he could do anything I could not go.

_Bpecial to the Post-Dispatch. CHICAGO, April 12.—In order that his father may die a free man instead of behind the bars of a prison, Charles Bidwell has volunteered to quit fight- ing against the penitentiary sentence given him and go to prison. ‘In return for this pledge the State's Attorney has agreed to allow Benson Bridwell, the father, go free for the few remaining days physicians say he hag to live. ' Benson Bidwell, 70 years old, is the inventor of the ‘cold motor,”’ an alleged awindle, and with his son he was con- victed for fraud. Both men have been in the County Jail pending preparation of their appeals to the Supreme Court. _ For weeks the elder Bidwell, who is in his seventy-fourth year, has been ail- ing, and toward the last his condition has been that of a dying man. He and his son have been in the jail since last September, unable to procure bail de- spite their recent prosperity and their dreams of fortunes which were about to be realized when the law pounced upon them and their “cold motor’’ and 'preved their scheme a “‘‘confidence game. ” ~" Sustained Only by Stimulants. x Vor more than a week the elder Bid- well’s life has been sustained by Dr. Francis W. McNamara only through stimulants. Nitroglycerin and _ strych- mine have been used to keep his faint heart alive. Senility and anemia have tripped him and the physicians have been in constant attendance upon him. Word of his father’s condition was car- ried to the son by one of the jail physi- Clans. He was told that his father could net survive many days in confinement. The younger Bidwell requested an mudience with Assistant State’s Attor- ney George Popham, who is conducting the prosecution, and asked whether there was any way he could take upon his own shoulders the burden of his father’s share in their mutual guilt. 7 Popham studied a moment. He was ‘working upon a voluminous and ex- pensive record of the case to be sent to Springfield as an answer to the Bid- wells’ appeal. He realized that the law could’ not much longer work its ven- geance upon the old man by confine- ment, and he said: “ff you will waive your appeal and _ Save the State the expense and trouble “ef fighting it, the State will agree te re- lease your father.”’ _ For a moment the son hesitated. His attorneys had promised him hope of defeating the sentence and he had great faith In his appeal. Agrees to Sacrifice. “You say you will release father if I ge to the penitentiary?’ he asked. The prosecutor nodded in assent. “Agreed,” said the younger Bidwell, swith trembling voice. ' Whe scene will be staged in Judge i Chetlain’s ceurtroom, when all parties will appear there Wednesday. : Charlies Bidwell, through his lawyer, will move to withdraw his motion to pet aside his sentence and the sentence— + an indeterminate period of from one to 1 ten years’ imprisonment—will be read | ‘The attorney for the father will move (| for further arugment on motien for a ) mew sentence as to his client.

Mumps is sufficiently prevalent in St. Louis te be called epidemic, according to several St. Louis physicians of gen- eral practice. Dr. C. A. Newcomb said to a Post- Dispatch reporter: “IT have never known as many cases of mumps in St. Louis as there have been recently. I have had many cases myself and have heard other physicians speak of the cases they had. I heard ef one very serious case the other day— a& grown man. The disease ordinarily is not at all severe, but sometimes gees hard with a mature man. If the patient is kept from taking cold and preperly looked after, mumps is insignificant as far as children are concerned.” No Cases at City Hospital. At the City Hospital it was said that there were no cases of mumps, but phy- sicians say that might be true even with a more widespread epidemic than now exists, for many persons regard mumps as ef \too small consequence even to call in a physician. They sim- ply apply home remedies, the principal ef which is hot application to the glands of the throat, affected by the disease. Dr. E. A. Babler told a Post Dispatch reporter that he had met with many cases of rrumps in his practice and that he considered the disease much more prevalent at this time than usual at the same season in St. Louls. Mumps is an affection of the carotid glands, which lie just behind the ears in the neck. One or both sides may be affected. In a grown-up man the dis- ease may spread and affect all the glands of the body. Treated With Home Remedies. Dr. Heine Marks said that, fellowing the epidemic of measles, ne had been called on to treat numerous cascs of en- larged glands, but said he hardly thought there was an epidemic of mumps in St. Louis. He added, how- ever, that there might be many cases which physicians would hear nothing about, being treated with: home reme- dies. Sheriff Grueninger of St. Louis Coun- ty has been a sufferer from the mumps and his illness has had a peculiar sig- nificance. He recently purchased a fine touring car, to be used in chasing and arresting speed law violators in the county, @ monopoly of the fees in that line having been held by Constable Bode and his runabeut. Ever since the Sher- iff hasjhad his new machine he has been laid up with mumps, and Bode still enjoys his meropoly. FRANK N. JOHNSON’S FUNERAL FROM BROTHER-IN-LAW’S HOME Coroner’s Jury Returned a Verdict of Suicide After Brief Inquiry. The funenal of Frank N. Johnson, former traffic manager of the Simmons Hardware Co., was held Monday after- noon from the home of James M. Fran- ciscus, Mr. Johnson's brother-in-law, at 10 Lenox place. Dean Davis of Christ Church Cathedral officiated. James FE. Smith, Charles H. Huttig, W. RB. Wells, William Enders, James Lockwood and Harlow Spencer were pallbearers. In- terment was in Bellefontaine Cemetery. A Coroner's jury, after investigating the circumstances of Mr. Johnson's death, returned Monday a verdict of suicide. A. M. Burton, a nephew, tes- tified that he knew of no cause save nervousness and iliness. A watchman at the Third National Bank Building, where Mr. Johnson shot himself in his office Saturday night, told of finding the body. :

LEVY ON HAM PICTURE PAYS A WhISKY BILL Constable Intended to Folk’s and Mulvihill’s Likenesses.

Get

Only one thing prevented the pictures cf former Gov. Folk and former Ex- clse Commissioner Mulvihill from be- ing seized at the Jefferson Club to pay whisky debt Monday. The pictures weren’t hanging on the wall at the club as the man who sued for the price of two cases of whisky thought they were. Foiled in his effort to capture the por- traits of Folk and Mulvihill, the con- stable seized large oil paintings of Mayor Wells and Harry B. Hawes. The prospect of these pictures of mem- bers still in good standing being sold by the constable at public auction was 8s» appalling that the club hastened to set- tle the bill. Paid Bill and Costs. They redeemed the Hawes and Wells paintings by paying to the Nelson Dis- tilling Co. $41.65. Of this amount $36 was the cost of two cases of whisky and the remainder represented the cost of the proceedings in Justice Sanders’ court. Constable Voyce made the seizure and the subsequent settlement. One explana- tion of his failure to find the pictures of Folk and Mulvihill at the club was that his coming had been “‘tipped off’ and the portraits of the reformers had been taken down. Assistant Secretary Meer gave a dif- ferent explanation. “When we moved over. here from Grand avenue and Pine street we left a lot of junk in the woodshed there. I guess the pictures are in the rubbish pile.”’ Moellman Gives Instructions, William

Jeptha D. Howe, retiring-no, retired- politician, isn’t going to be without a machine to run, after all. At least the Republican City Central Committeemen have made that threat. They are going to give him an automobile. Poor Jep! Now will he weep some more? Some men are born with automobiles; some achieve automobiles and others have automobiles thrust upon them. A few pedestrians are in the latter class. Just as the genius of Republican city politics was about to fold his tents and silently steal away to the privacy of his own vine and fig tree—just as he was dreaming of a placid, pastoral ex- ‘istence surrounded by his lares and pen- ates and the silver tea set which was handed to him at his farewell dinner, he finds himself again in the acetylene spotlight and the ear-splitting honk of the Gabriel horn brings him back to life and he finds that he was only dreaming. How could a vision of a supine, inactive, inert and protoplasmic Howe be anything but a dream, any- way. Can a pent-up Utica of tears stay pent? Wept Over the Tea Set. Why? There were some who thought Howe was disappointed when he received the tea set. Those who sat nearest him at the dinner could not make out whether he wept for joy or disappointment. Early in the evening there had been a rumor that an order for an automo- bile would be handed to him at the d.nner. And now comes the news that he is to have the car. Very pathetically Howe told his din- ner guests that he had never owned a silver teaset. “We have. never had one at my rouse,” he said, weeping into the richly engraved sugar bowl. “I have never had money enough to buy one.” Now some of the Republican workers mre asking the Howe question: It is this: “How is Howe going to maintain an nutomobile when Howe never could see how he could afford to buy a teaset?’’ How the Bills Will Come In. Of course, it is out of the question *that. Howe would for a moment enter- tain the suggestion that he might pawn the teaset to obtain money for the up- keep of the touring car. He might realize $1300 or so in that way, but that wouldn’t be more than enough to pay the first month’s salary of a chauf- feur. Then thete would be gasoline to buy at 16% cents a gallon, and lubricating ofl at 75 cents. a gallon. Having never saved enough money to buy a teaset it is reasonable to assume that Howe has no private garage. The man. who runs the automobile livery stable would charge him not less than $20 a month for storage and hostelry, and every time a bolt was tightened a "7% mechanic would put in his bill for 7 => cents an hour. He would have to pay a chauffeur $75 a month to run it for him until he could learn to run it him- self. Of his two gifts Jep would find it - much more economical to run the tea- set. One pound of tea at 40 cents, will go five times as far as one gallon of gusoline at 16% cents, and sugar is much cheaper than lubricating oil. It ie Howe's boast that he never made any money in politics. Accepting that statement it. would appear to many of ‘his friends that he will have to be a busy lawyer to afford the luxury of a six-cylinder touring car.

PRESIDENT RENTS SUMMER HOME ONA PROMONTORY Taft Family Will Be Sur- rounded on Three Sides by Water at Beverly.

BOSTON, April 12.—That President Taft will occupy a house on Woodbury Point at Beverly, owned by Robert D. Evans of this city, and adjoining Mr. Evans’ summer residence, was the an- nouncement Mr. Evans made today. Mrs. Taft visited the estate during her tour of the Massachusetts North Shore last month and last Thursday Mr. Evans was notified that the President would -take the house for the sum- mer. The Evans house is situated on Bev- erly Cova and is one of the most at- tractive places on Salem Bay. It is on a point jutting out toward Salem Willows, and is within a short distance of the business part of the city of Beverly. It is surrounded on three sides by water and is only approached by a long avenue, so that seclusion is practically assured. Several prominent Bostonians occupy summer estates in the neighborhood. Salem Harbor will afford a good an- chorage for ary Government vessel that may bring visitors to the Taft summer home, while the golf links of the Eissex County Club at Manchester and those of the Myopla Hunt Club at Hamilton, are within easy motoring distance. Salem Bay is one of the most popu- lar yachting resorts on the New En- gland coast and late in the fall the international German Sonder races will be held off the entrance. The work of placing the Evans cot- tage in readiress for the President was begun today, and it is expected that some of the members of the Taft fam- ily will be in Beverly during the first weeks in June.

ALTY AGENT CHARGED WITH > EMBEZZLEMENT

ww Owner of Lot Accuses George Dausman of Retaining Loan of $280.

A charge of embezzlement has been brought against George Dausman, a real estate agent, living at 6501 Cates ave- nue. He was arrested in his office, 301 Liggett Building, Monday. The com- plaining witness is Martin McHale of 5001: Shaw avenue. McHale charges that about two months ago he drew up a deed of trust on his Shaw avenue property, took the deed to Dausman and asked him to get a ioan on it to pay for a building Mc- Hale expected to erect on the property. McHale told Dausman, he says, that the contractors would be sent to him for payment. McHale charges that He sent one con- tractor whose bill was $280 to Dausman, but Dausman told the contractor that no loan had been negotiated. The same answer was given, McHale says, when the, contractor called later. McHale chatges he has learned that Dausman borrowed $280 on the property fram a }Chestnut street real estate man. Dausman, following his arrest, denied that any loan had been obtained and said he had done nothing criminal. WIFE REFERS JUDGE TC POLICE COURT RECORDS FOR HER MARITAL HISTORY Mrs. Filmore Kaylor Declares -Hus- band Has Been in Workhouse Ten Times in Two Years. The history of Filmore Kaylor’s do- mestic life for the last two years is written on the records of police courts, Mrs. Kaylor told Judge Pollard in the Dayton Street Court Monday just before the Judge fined Kaylor $500 and costs. The Kaylors lived at 1430 North Fif- teenth street. That is, the wife lives there with her two children by the present and three by’a former mar- riage. Kaylor stops with the family when he is not in the Workhouse, The wife testified that Sunday the hus- band struck her, with the remark: “I’}] kill a couple of you,” meaning her and his step children, “How long have you been married?” asked Judge Pollard. “Nine long years,” replied the wife, sighing. Mrs. Kaylor testified that neighbors pay the rent and support the family with what the older girls are able to earn. “The neighbors give us food and my husband comes home from the Work- house and eats it,” she said, “I have had to have him arrested ten times in two years. He has been fined from $10 upward. He has been out of the Workhouse two monthe this time and in those two months he hs done only two days’ work. He sawed wood at the Provident Association’s woodyard and got a dollar for that.” “It would be a travesty of justice to give this men & smal] fine,” re- marked Judge Pollard as he wrote out the judgment which will keep Kaylor in the Workhouse six months.

i a : CAULFIELD TAKES SALOON LICENSE “FROM LIDLIFTER A

Policemen Arrested Two Men Who Had Bought Beer From Bornfeld.

For the first time since he has been in office Excise Commissioner Caulfield revoked a saloon license Monday. The license was held by William Bornfeld, who has been conducting a grocery and saloon at 6101 Alabama avenue. Sergeant Hendy and Patrolmen Scher- zinger and McGovern testified that they concealed themselves mn the Bornfeld premises on the night of April 4, which vas Sunday. Presently they saw Charles Farmer, a: negro, start out through the alley gate with a sack. They arrested him. The sack con- tained 12 bottles of beer. Farmer was locked in the coal shed and the police- men resumed theie vigil. Soon they saw Louis H. Elle walk up to the alley gate. As he did so a case of beer was pushed out and he caught it. Elle and the beer were seized. “How did you get that beer?’ Excise Commissioner asked Farmer. “I found it in the yard,” he said. Beer Was a Surprise. He didn’t know how it got there, he added, but admitted that he had paid Mrs. Bornfeld 50 cents. He didn’t know, he said, whether that had anything to do with the beer being in the yard. Elle said he was walking through the alley when a case of beer was pushed at him. Instinctively he seized it. He didn’t catch even a glimpse of who pushed the case at him. Before he had made up his mind whether he would drink any of the beer the policemen got him. When Bornfeld heard the policemen testify to locking Farmer in the coal shed he jumped to his feet and cried: “Do you think that was right—to make a police station out of a man’s coal shed ?’’ Commissioner Caulfield said that point was not in issue. OPENING HOUR AT MIDNIGHT SAID TO DISPLEASE HADLEY JEFFERSON CITY, April 12.—Excise Commissioner Caulfield’s decision to al- low the saloons in St. Louis te open between midnight Sunday and 1 a. m. Monday has caused dissatisfaction among legislative leaders who are fight- ing the constitutional amendment pro- posing State-wide prohibition. It is un- derstood, too, that Caulfield’s action is the

-}not entirely approved by the administra- tion. Gov. Hadley this afternoon addressed a communication to the Excise Commis- sioner, the purport of which he refused to make public. Although Gov. Hadley is disinclined to say anything that might be con- strued as even a mild criticism of the new excise edict, it Is well known, his friends say, that he favors the strict- est regulation of saloons 48 a means to check the growing wave of prohi- bition. For this reason it is said he ts anxious to be assured that Mr. Caul- field’s midnight opening order is justi- fled on legal and moral grounds. The prohibition champions say the Caulfield opening has strengthened them materially. It is reported that one of their legis- lative representatives has prepared a resolution asking by what authority the St. Louis Excise Commissioner extends this privilege to St. Louis saloon keep- ers in view of the fact that his ptede- cessor, Thomas E. Mulvihill, ruled that the saloons must close and remain closed from midnight Saturday until 5 a. m. Monday. ¥ aaio7 nes

OF CAGONL Queer Specimen Spouts Water When Taken From Tur- bine Wheel. —_— TAKEN TO FIRE CHIEF

He Refuses to Add It to Departmental Equipment, However. Another member of the Bottoras Gang Was caught Monday while trying to get physical culture by riding the Union Electric Light and Power Co.’s tur- bine Ferris wheel at the foot of Cass avenue. When he was taken into- custody it was thought at first that he was weep- ing, but closer inspection showed that he was only spouting. He was one of the queerest looking members of the gang ever in captivity. On either side of his neck was a row of holes from which he could shoot wa- ter in streams resembling those of an automatic fire-cxtinguisher. S. B. Haskney aidn’t turn the Bot- toms Gang member over to the police, but took him to Max Burnstine of 16138 Market street. A scientist who saw the prisoner said: “Huh, I know what that is. It’s a fire-eel. There's lots of them in the river. Some of them have whiskers, and some of them wear lace collars like those Sir Walter Kaleigh used to send to the laundry. All of these eels keep Close to the bottom of the river.’’ That statement of the scientist was ecnclusive in its classification of the prisoner as a member of the Bottoms Gang. Chief Swingley was told about the capture, but he said he didn’t regard it as important. Useless to Fire Department. “Those fire-eels don’t help me much,” he said. ‘“‘They have good pressure and an unlimited supply of water, but they won't respond to alarms.”’ It was suggested to the Chief that he might train the captured fire-eel and send him back to the river to organize regular companies which might do good service along the levee, as the city has no fire boat. “T’ll not do it,” said the Chief. ‘There are no funds in the department to main- tain fire-water engine houses at the bot- tom of the river. The fire-eel is about eighteen inches long and is much like other eels except for its automatic sprinkler. WOMEN AND POLICEMEN BEAT MAN WHEN HE CALLS ON WIFE Separated Husband and Woman Engage in Row Over Easter Eggs and Former Is Fine $20. - Easter eggs for his children came high to William Lehr of 4134 Main street. In addition to the price of the eggs he paid two fines of $10 each with costs, And the children didn't get the Easter eggs. Lehr has been separated from his wife, Mary, for three months. Sat- urday afternoon he called at 2222 Montana avenue, the home of his wife and children, to see Mrs. Lehr. “I have some Haster eggs for the children,” said Lehr, “and I want ’em to come over and get 'em.” Mrs, Lelir refused to permit the chil- dren to go. During the argument which ensued, Mrs. Mary Otting, who lives at 2220 Montana avenue, went into her yard and overheard it. Her mother also overheard it at an open window. Mrs. Otting made a remark which enraged Lehr and he turned upon her and accused her of separating him and his wife. “Come out here and Ill give you a beating,” Lehr is said to have chal- lenged. Mrs. Otting came out. She brought with her a blacksnake whip. Mrs. Lehr armed herself with a big stick, and the women belavored Lehr with zest until Policeman O’Garra arrived. The officer found Lehr still fighting and was compelled to Knock him down, Lehr was fined $10 for disturbing the peace of the two women and $10 for resisting arrest.

ALO LD. GEL LLE LLL LIE LA LT OE, DENY IN FRENCH AS IN ENGLISH Ex-President Uses Strong For- eign Words in Repudiating Interview, DID NOT EVEN SEE MAN TLD Journalist Says He Has the Papers and That Story Is True, LS Specia] Cablegram to the Post-Dispatch. PARIS, April 12.—Wireless messages are expected minutely from Theodore Roosevelt, aboard the steamship Ad- miral, bound for Mombasa, denying again, after twice denying already, that he ever saw, heard, suspected or imag- ined the correspondent of Le Journal, the Paris paper which published a long article—European name for “story’’~ purporting to be an interview with the former President of the United States at Naples. When Mr. Roosevelt changed ships at Naples, a Gallic journalist, with a Louis Napoleon goatee and Edward VII cloth- ing, tracked him from’ the Hamburg to the Admiral. Le Journal published its correspond- ent’s article in the most. startling Parisian style, which ig not startling at all. Nevertheless, the interview—if such it: was—enjoyed wide copying throughout Europe. Mr. Roosevelt Denies, When Mr. Roosevelt's vessel arrived at Port Said last Friday, he sent a cable- gram to Le Journal, saying that he had given out no such interview, nor any sort of interview. The denial was given space in the paper, together with a statement from the correspondent, who declared in most unequivocal French that he talked fer an hour—# minutes, Standard time— with the mighty Americo-African hunts- man at Naples, and that the interview was reported by him tin Le Journal with strict and painstaking accuracy. : This denial of having faked the inter- view reached the eye of Mr. Roose- velt when Mr. Roosevelt reached Suez, or perhaps it got to him somewhere ‘west of Suez, where the best is not necessarily like the worst. — In any event, Mr. Roosevelt once more set the cable to thrilling and cor- rugating with a tremendous Teddyistic cenial. This time he wired Paris in his well-known Ananias-stalking style. ‘“‘Le Journal's article,’”’ he cabled, ‘“‘is en impudent fabrication, without a par- ticle of foundation. I never saw the correspondent of Le Journal.” Correspondent Interviews Himself. Le Journal’s correspondent _immedi- ately got’ busy again. He seated him- self and wrote an interview with him- self, for which he vouches as a reputa- ble journalist, in good standing with the prefect and the gendarmes. He re- affirms the truth of the interview. He Geclares that he can prove that he dia see and talk with Theodore Hoose- velt at Naples, and that the article published was a true report of what the only surviving ex-: resident said to him. Unlike the American members of the Ananias Club, this Parisian recruit is prepared, he says, to furnish proof of his own veracity. All France, which is Paris, breathless- ly and excitedly awaits the third de- nial from Mr. Roosevelt. Meanwhile the boulevards bubble and the cafes cackle. And Castro, another ex-President, is coming to France. CALL CONFERENCE ON DEADLOCK Hopkins, West, Hitch and Berry to Meet at Illinois Capital.

He Got Only $450, Miss Euthenia Koller of Hannibal, suing Henry G. Offenbacher, formerly her lawyer in a breach of promise suit, for $1500, testified in the Circuit Court Monday that Offenbacher asked her only $25 as his fee, though she agreed to pay him one-third of what she won by the suit, and that when she got $460, the amount for which, she was told, he had compromised the case, Offenbacher told her to tell others she had received $2000

Miss Koller testified that Offenbacher admitted to her later that he had re- ceived $2000 in settlement, but defied her to prove it. Offenbacher denies this. She sued Luke Bryan for breach of promise in South McAlester, Ok. She testified that she agreed to the $450 set- tlement only after Offenbacher had positively refused to proceed with the case, which she desired to have the Court hear as a matter of vindication for herself. STRIKING BUTTON MAKERS CAUSE TERROR IN FRANCE Violence and Disorder Follow De- mands and 2000 Troops Patrol Three Towns. MERU, France, April 1.—The striking button makers, whose demands for a continuance of the previous wage scale in the button factories have been fol- lowed by violence and disorder, have brought about a veritable reign of ter- ror here and in the neighboring towns of Crepin and Lormaison. About 2000 soldiers, under the com- mand of Gen. Nicolas, consisting of dra- goons, hussars and ¢cuirassiers, and 500 geridarmes under the leadership of the Prefect of Oise, are today patrolling the streets of the towns and the sur- rounding country. ty The mob is ugly, and cries of “Down with the republic” are heard constant- ly. The soldiers are bearing the insults of the people with great stoicism, al- though a number of them have been injured severely by stones. M. Voirin and other representatives of the General Federation of Labor are here from Paris and are urging the strikers to fight to a finish.

with which she sends certain lovers scurrying down her back stairs, one by one, to make room for certain other lovers coming up her front stairs. ‘ Boasts of Nakedness and Svwearf Roundly. And Paulette Divine is at every mo- ment proud of her success in the most ancient “profession”? known to Eve's daughters. Tittering, she points to her almost naked picture as Salome and ex- plains that she was enablea to do the Salome dance comfortably because the stage upon which she danced was steam-heated. She explains exultantly that she has feund an even better char- actce. for a dance than was Salome— that of Lady Godiva, particularly ap- pealing because its impersonation ne- cessitated absolutely no money outlay for clothes. She explains that her tem- perament leads her to ‘go the limit” in her Salome-dancing, the only line drawn being that drawn by the police. At twe critical moments in the play’s story she explodes into profanity, mouthed with all the gusto of a Tender- loin woman who finds the touch of well- rounded oaths refreshing to her paint- ed lips. At+every moment she is the incarnation of the triumphant wanton, drawn with absolutely no eth- ical intent, and, it must be, intention- ally shocking for the mercenary sake of the play’s wider publicity. Thus, too, she lives throughout the entire play of which ste and the old “papa guy” rake are the star figures. There is no excuse for the presenta- tion of “The Blue Mouse” in play- houses to which men may bring modest and pure-minded women. It lets down the barriers that have heretofore di- vided resorts ‘“‘for men only” from such playhouses. The play is vigorously and capably presented by the Shubert com- pany cast for its playing—so vigorous- ly and capably that it takes on all the vitality of that section of the actual Tenderloin life from which it is drawn.

HARRY EXNICIOUS CAN'T GET A BONDSMAN THIS TIME For the first time in his police history no bondsman appeared for Harry Ex- nicious, convicted election crook, from the hour of his arrest at 11 p. m. Sat- urday until he was arraigned on a dis- turbance of the peace charge in the Dayton Street Police Court Monday. He was accused of hitting Joseph E. Tobin,

‘16 years old, 1418 Cass avenue, on the head with a pool ball in a Franklin ave- nue pool room Saturday night. Exnicious is 24 years of age and lives at 1821 Carr street. The police of the Carr Street Station say that heretofore when Exnicious has been arrested a bondsman sometimes reached the police Station before the patrol wagon carry- ing the prisoner. Exnicious, who is under a five-year Sentence for fraudulent voting at the August primaries, is out on bond pend- ing an appeal to the Supreme Court. A cross charge of disturbing the peace was made against Tobin, who charges Ex- nicious with hitting him with pool ball. |

Take in tablespoonful doses before each meal and at bedtime.” The ingredients can be procured at any drug store and easily mixed at ome. Not only will this formula prompt- ly relieve the muscular pains but it is also one of the most effective sys- tem builders known to the profession.

FROM ITALY 10 SEE SON; Dits Mind and Body Body Wrecked by Hardship of Journey in Strange Land. IN NEW YORK Expires Without Seeing Loved One Who Worked 20 Years to Send for Her.

LOST

Bewildered by the bigness and strangeness of America, Mrs. Rosa Tio- jano of Palermo, Italy, who came to St. Louis April 4 to join her son in Okla- homa, became a wreck in mind and body-and died Sunday morning in the City Hospital without seeing the son from whom she had been separated 20 years. Mrs. Tiojamo, who was 58 years old, became violently Imsane at Union Sta- tion. She chased newsboys up and down Market street and did other acts of lunacy before she was caught by ~ the police and sent to the hospital. The immigrant woman had transpor- tation to Hartshorne, Ok., and wore a tag stating that she was going to join her son, Antonio Tiojano, at that place. She could not speak a word of English, and the interpreters at Union Station were unable to converse with her in Ttalian, because of her ravings. Sen Sent Money to Her. At the hospital later Mrs. Tiojano recovered sufficiently to tell her story to an interpreter. She said that An- tonio left Palermo 20 years ago, coming first to New York, then to Oklahoma, where he settied down. He worked hard, hoping some day to save money enough to send for his mother. Finally, early this year, Antonio forwarded . money for transportation, amd Mrs. Tio- jano joined a party of immigrants and “crossed the ocean. \\ The woman was acquainted with some of these immigrants in her home city. They were company for‘“her on the long voyage in the steerage, but when the ship reached New York and all had to undergo scrutinization at Ellis Island, Mrs. Tiojano became sep- erated from her party. Finally lar.ded in New York, Mrs. Tiojano wandered helplessly about the great city for days. At last she was put on the right train for St, Louis. The tong overland journey ina strange land added to her woes, and when she reached Union Station she was mentally unbalanced and ill. Carried Immense Cheese. Mrs. Tiojano carried six large cot- ton sacks filled with her clothing and effects, tied together and ,thrown across her shoulders. In one of the bags the hospital au- thorities found an immense cheese, which experts pronounce highly val- vable because of its apparently great antiquity. The cheese is 15 inches in diameter, six inches thick and possesses an odor that permeates the storeroom of the hospital. Antonio Tiojano has been notified of his mother’s death. LOVE IN A COTTAGE FOR JAP AND AMERICAN BRIDE Window-Washer Husband of ‘Arch, deacon’s Daughter Has New Job and Wife Is Satisfied. SEATTLE, Wash., April 12.—Love in @ cottare, with furniture on the install- ment plan, curious neighbors and a strong-minded mother-in-law to @et as general superintendent, is the latest de- velopment in the romance of Helen Gladys Emery, daughter of the broken- hearted archdeacon, John Emery of San _Francisco, and Gunjiro Aoki, the former “window. washer.: After the marriage of thé white girl with the Japanese in this city it was given Out that they would live on a ranch somewhere on Hood’s Canal.

BUNGLE MADE AT LECTROCUTION A MATRICI Wire Falling to Floor Delays Bernard Carlin’s Death Nearly Minute.

OSSINING, N. Y., April 12.—For the murder of his mother, Mrs. Susan Car- lin, in her home in Brooklyn one year ago, Bernard Carlin, aged 27, was put to death by electricity in the State Prison here today at 6 a. m. One shock of the current, consisting of 1840 volts only, was appli. After Carlin had been strapped in the chair the signal to turn on the current was given, but the usual muscular re- sponse on the part of the condemned man, which indicates the effect of the current, was absent. Wire Falls to Floor. An examination disclosed the fact that one of the wires connecting with an electrode had fallen to the floor and therefore no circuit had been estab- lished. After a delay of nearly a minute the wire was readjusted, the current was turned on’ ana one minute later Carlin was pronounced dead. Carlin ‘blamed his mother for per- mitting him to remain in a reform: in- stitution and when he was released from the reformatory he purchased a revol- ver, went direct to 1‘. mother’s home and killed her. WATCHMAN STIRS KINGSBURY PLACE BY OPPOSING CUPID Two Households Side With En- gaged Couple in Complaint to Police Board. ° The household of David R. Francis of Maryland avenue and Sidney Black- well of Kingsbury place will be repre- sented next Friday when the Board of Police Commissioners hear how Private Watchman Daniel Regan of the Page Boulevard District interrupted a quiet little courtship o.. the night of March 15. Gurli Edling, employed ~; maid in the Francis home, and Hugo G. Sward, houseman for Sidney Blackwell of 15 Kingsbury piace; who are engaged to marry, were conversing in front of the Blackwell home. Sward had stepped around to the stable to get his over- coat when Regan happened along and demanded to know what Miss Edling was doing there. P Later, according to affidavits filed with the Police Board, Regan followed the couple te King’s highway boulevard, using insulting language toward Miss Edling. The young woman reported the occur- rence to her brother, Gus, and he sought an interview with Regan. When the brother asked for an apology, he as- serts, the watchman ordered him away from Kingsbury place anil struck him with his club. Miss Edling resides at 4648 Vernon avenue.

MR. AND MRS. EGG WILL NOT BE EGGS AFTER APRIL 29

Court Gives Them Right to Change Name to Eck and Friends’ Bad Jests Will Lose Their Power to Annoy.

By Leased Wire from the New York Bareau of the Past-Dispatch. NEW YORK, April 12. — Now that Easte~ is pase Mr. and Mrs. Olrich Egg of 108 West Eighty-first street are more than ever in hurry for April 29 to come, when they may drop the Egg and become Eck. They apealed to C urt Justice O’Gorman for permission to make the c ange of names and he se* April 29 a° » date. Most persons get tired of eggs about Easter, but when you use the same Egg for 34 years, as Egg has done, it is bound to become monotonous. Mrs. Egg has been wearing the name about three years, and she admitted yesterday she was only waiting for the opportuni- ty to scramble out from under it. Not that their friends have grown tired of the Eggs, but the Eggs feel that they have furnished the comedy for their friends just about long enough.

Mrs: Egg presides over a fash- icnable dressmaking establishment at 566 Fifth avenue, and she couldn't re- call a single insta ice where her na had helped her any. She is a }.andsome\ woman and laug! i merrily while her husband discussed i e situation. “T’'ve been in hot water ever since I’ve had the name,” said Egg. “Then you must be hard boiled by this time,” sai. the reporter. “I’m done on both sides, all right, 2 laughed Egg. “In Switzerland, where we come from, the name is pronounced Eck, and besides it has a different meaning.” “How did you come to marry your husband?’ Madame Egg was asked.

A A A I A: IN cE OIE ~ GEN LAWS T0 BE URGED 10 STEM “DRY TIDE Missouri Party Leaders Decide on Divorce of Breweries From the Saloons. ——_—— COUNTY LOCAL OPTION Proposed to Prohibit Officials and Committeemen From Selling Liquor.

By a Staff Correspondent of the Post- Dispatch, JEFFERSON CITY, April 12.—Realiz- ing that the campaign on behalf of State-wide prohibition is making great headway, the Democratic and Republic- an leaders in the General Assembly have decided to enact the most strin- gent laws in reference to the liquor traffic, In this way legislators hope to | stem the radical temperance tide. Among other measures, the following will be urged by the leaders on both sides: A bill to provide county unit local op- tion for all counties contatning towns of 10,000 or less. A bill providing for the absolute di- vorce of the breweries from the ga- loons. A bill to prohibit any public officia/ or county or ward committeeman from conducting a saloon. A bill to license all breweries and distilleries and to subject clubs to. the provisions of the general dramshop laws. ~ These measures, introduced in the early part of the session, had been per- mitted to slumber. Vote a § > The strength of the Prohibitionists was not regarded as material until the Killion amendment propesing State- wide prohibition came to a vete in the House of Representatives. All that Gevernor Hadley and the Ad- ministration forces would de proved futile, so far as preventing a number of Republicans from going on record for the prohibition resolution. Both Democratic and Republican members were reminded that the plat- form of their parties had declared ex- pressly against the prohibition prin- ciple. a This warning was ignored with the statement that everything in the way of legislation was being subordinated to the liquor interests, The “drys’’ called attention to the fact that regulative anti-liquor mea- sures were being defeated or delayed. Gov. Hadley grasped the drift of things when he sent a special message to the Legislature demanding imme- diate consideration of the liquor prob- lem to the end that sumptuary legis- lation might be avoided.\ Chaplain’s Attitude, One of the amusing incidents of tl.> prohibition fight in the House was the attitude of the chaplain, the Rev. J. J. Martin of Barton County. He invoked the divine blessing on the advocates of temperance and prayed at some length for the submission of the prohibition amendment, Representative EB. L. °: art, Republi- can, of St. Joseph, promptly reminded the chaplain that he had exceeded his authority. “You have got no more right te pray for prohibition than you have to pray for some other law,” said Hart. “Yeu were not engaged for the purpose of influencing any sert of legislation and we would rather that you confine your- self to the usual prayers.” The chaplain replied that he thought his prohibition prayer was more whole- some than otherwise for everybody. Mrs. F. H. Ingalls, who is leading the prohibition ferces, expressed satisfac- tion today with the preposition previd- ing that the prohibition amendment, ii passed, shall net go into effect until Jan. 1, 1913. “That strikes me as being fair and reasonable,” said she. “Besides, we figure it will help our cause. The liquer interests cannot then say that we are taking snap judgment on them and they cannot claim that we are not giving them every opportunity to dispose of their large property inter- ests. “The only regrettable feature of this contest was the assertion of Repre- sentative Rhodes, Gov. Hadley’s per- sonal representative on the floor of the House, that nine out of the ten. women in the gallery who applauded our legis- lative friends were in the employ of somebody and had been paid to come here. Not*a dollar was paid te anybody and, moréover, it was net necessary for us to manufacture enthusiasm. “Naturally we have the greatest en- thusiasts enlisted In our cause and there is not a worker‘in our ranks who does net feel that he er she is doing a great service for the cause of man- kind. “The chief argument used against us was that the State needs the revenue it new derives frem the sale of intoxi- cants.

Joyce was seen by Mrs, Marv McMurray to enter one of the sh ernoon, and soon a the negroes, around the mine all day, were noftced hurrying away from the shaft.

They were very bitter against Joyce and threatened him. Brother Searching Mine. William Joyce, a brother of the miss- ing superintendent, arrived her several days ago from his home in Wilkesbarre and has been. personally searching for his brother tn the abandoned ledges, of the rhine ever since. He was provided with a helmet by the Government ex- perimental station here, which makes it possible to enter gaseous mines with- out danger. | Sunday afternoon William Joyce heard tappings which assured him that his brother was in one of the ledges, and | that he was still alive. When Joyce heard the tappings he hastened to the mouth of the mine, and soon more than 100 men were assisting in the’ search. So far it has been impossible to dis- cover the exact entrance from which the tappings come, but the rescue par- ties will explore all the closed-up ledges in the hope that they will find Joyce alive in one of them.

What seemed to tne members of the “Navy of the Lord” to be a miraculous mark of divine favor occurred just be- fore the beginning, at the foot of Franklin avenue, Easter Sunday morn-. , of the baptism ceremony of the easant Green Negro Baptist Church. Spectators who gathered, three hours the time for the baptism, on the roped-off water front, noticed that the surface of the water was covered which had floated from a néarby factory. The advance guard ofthe “Navy of the Lord” noticed it also, and fears were expressed that the oil would add a very disagreeable feature to the experience the converts in the chilly water. ¢ oil remained on the surface antil ost ‘the moment when the converts, led by the Rev. J. K .Parker and a party of deacons and elders, appeared on the approach to the levee, singing In the Lord’s Appointed Way.” Then the current, which had seemed to be at a standstill near the bank, swept the scum away, and when, the baptismal party entered the water a few moments later, it was as clear as the water in midstream, ; “Praise the Lord!”’ cri Pastor Park- @r, when one of the elders called his attention to the removal of the oil. 84 Converts Baptized... Then, with 10,000 men and women, the greater part of them white and of prosperous appearance, watching from the levee, from Eads Bridge, from fer- ryboat landings and from freight-car

Creek reached Medicine Bend from Point of Rocks at 6 o'clock.

In the trainmaster’s room of the; weather-beaten ‘headquarters build- ing nicknamed by railroad men “The Wickiup,” early comers—sleepy~faced, keen-eyed trainmen—lotinged on the tables and in chairs distussing the re- orts from Point of Rocks, and among hem crew-callers. and messengers moved in and out. wo minutes after they had their orders and were pull- ing out of the upper yard, with right of Way over everything to Point of NY cre of the wreck at Smoky ocks, The wreck had occurred just west fast eastbound freight : eaded, had left the track on the ae curve around the he wrecking train rough Ten Shed cut the sun | over the heaps of jammed ted cars strung all the way yn the point of the curve to the foot of Smoky Hill.

CHAPTER III. T IK wreckers, drifting in the blaze of the sun across the broad alkali valley, saw the smoke of the wreck-fire behind them, No breath of wind stirred it. With the stillness of a signal column it rose, thin and black, and high in the air spread motionless, like a huge umbrella, above Smoky Creek. Reed Young had gone with an engine to wire for re-enforcements, and McCloud, active among the trackmen until the conflagration spent itself, nad retired to the shade of the hill. Reclining against a rock with his legs crossed, he had clasped his hands be- hind his head and sat looking at the iron writhing in the dying heat of the fire. The sound of hoofs aroused him, and looking below he saw a horsewom- an reining up near his men at the wreck. She rode an American horss, thin and rangy, and the experienced way in which she checked him drew him back almost to his haunchés, But McCloud’'s eyes were fixed on the slen- der figure of the rider. Her boot flashed in the stirrup while she spoxe to the nearest man, and her horse stretched his neck and nosed the brown alkali-grass that spread thinly along the road. To McCloud she was something iike an apparition.

This argument finally seemed to im- press him and we then and there closed an agreement, the details of which were worked out afterward to our mutual This gentleman was Mr. Samuel Mather of Cleveland. He spent only a few minutes in the house, dur- ing which time we gave him the order for about $3,000,000 worth of ships, and this was the only time I saw him. But Mr. Mather is a man of high business honor; we trusted him implicitly, though he was 4 competitor, and we never had occasion to regret it.

LEADERS WIN LONG BATTLE Both the City and new Trolley League opened their season yesterday béfore fairly large crowds. In the Trolley League the best game resulted when the Grand-Leaders and East St. Louis club battled 13 innings to a tie, 5-5, at Kast St, Louis. The Leaders tied the score by sending two runs across the plate in the ninth inning. The Ben Millers won from the Letter Carriers at Athletic Park, 6 to 1. The Belleville Maroons found the Maple- wood club rather easy, the Maroons winning 12 to 3. The game was played at Beileville. Frank Sebastian's Orphan Boys got an unexpected jolt at South End Park when the Ellendales lowered the colors of the Orphans on their home grounds, 8 to 1. Sebastian was holding Bieger, his premier pitcher, in reserve, Koch being the man whom the Ellendales made feel weak by their heavy batting. In the City League games the re-4 sults were as follows: At South End Park, Broawkay Odeons, 4, Unimatics, 1.

BE GIVEN FIRST CHANCE TO WIN CHAMPION’S _ CROWN FROM MISTAH JOHNSON

BASEBALL _

OuUNSON Woato’s EavyweiGuT HAMPION . THE CHAMPION---AN D SOME 0 AN ANCIENT. Greex BRONZE OF SOME WARRIOR.

W one respect does it seem to fall away Last season the team was fourth in hitting percentage and in number of hits made. Detroit made 1848 safeties —an appreciable difference. St. Louis batted itself into third place in per- centage and second position in number of safe hits made—12&. This year the club promises to be improved in its batting, ‘although: that, of course, is a matter of conjecture. If Flick and Turner are anything ‘like themselves, the Cleveland team ‘will ‘be the unquestionable class o@ the race. But the “ifs’’ seem too numerous for away from many setbacks before th beat the Tigers and the Browns and crowd into first position. The same may be said of every other club except the Tigers, which seems to have strength- ened positively. T a splendid inning during the first month in both baseball races. With four teams fn each league having outlooks more or less roseate, the pros- pects are for a see-saw gallop for the first two months before the clubs set- tle to their #level of average perform- ance. The younger teams will have an early romp, and not until June suns begin to loosen the ligaments ‘of “the old ’uns can. serious attention be paid to the position of clubs in the race. The undertaking of leading. the league throughout an entire season is.too great a strain on any club. It may be safely assumed that the team which is in front in either league at the end of the first month of baseball will fall from grace before the season closes. The pace is too hot and the strain of keep- ing in front too great. Even the Cubs felt it. last year. They wavered ‘about, fell back, &nd only re- covered the lead at the finish through the memorable mistake of Mr. Merkle, together with the co-dperation of the Philadelphia team and Mr. Coveleski. Detroit was off to a wretched start, last season, and finished first. New York in the National League had been discarded as out of the hunt, and then came within an ace of first place. The greatest reversal of all was, perhaps, the showing of the Highlanders, who led the American League for almost a month and then rattled weakly down the ladder into a final rest-on, the bot- tom. The race in basebe't Is not always to the ‘pacemaker. So, just becausé the club | sou fancy Chance for Shouters.

HAT a majority of followers of baseball think will prove the 1909 American League champion team will be quartered at the Planters Hotel tonight. ready to open the season here against the St. Louis Browns on Wednes- day. This is the.squad headed by Napoleon Lajoie of Cleveland, and in only during the season:and Cleveland but 1223’ the Blues not to have trouble getting | doesn't open a big: gap right at the. start, don’t’ quit hoping. Also, don’t /exu from championship calliber—batting. that unless weather or other conditions forced a change he would send in John Powell to pitch the opening game at Sportsman’s Park, Wednesday. Addie Joss is to work for Cleveland. J other members of the greatest pitching staff in the American League. Young, Berger, Liebhardt and Rhoades— all righthanders. It s¢ems to’make little difference to Cleveland pitchers what batting specialty may be opposed to them—they know how 'to win. And if the race ever comes down to a duel between Detroit and Cleveland, the Blues will have all the advantage, accord- ing to past performance. Detroit has been ineffectivé against the Cleveland pitchers and of the 22 games played last year won but nine. St. Louis won 10 of #1, from Cleveland; and one of these, coming at the end of the season, was enough to shove Cleveland into second place and gave the Tigers the pennant. Oh, for a Joss! OSS is a wonderful pitcher, but not Manager Bresnahan of the Cardinais has surely done something with that club. The trip of the team around a circuit of one-night stands shows up the St. Louis’ team to some advantage. Louisville and Columbus were the only strong teams the Cardinals met up to today; .but Bresnahan’s braves have disposed of all their games with case. Dash and alertness and daring are the pepper features reed upon to eke out a deficiency in: individual excellence. As the club lines up, however, it seems too frail te stand the pounding ft will get from veteran aggregations like the Cubs and Giants.

so great that he overshadows the. MOTORING By NELSON T. GUTELIUS

A, ©, A. to Govern Motor Boat Races. NEW YORK, April 12.—By the terms of an agreement entered into by the Automobile Club of America, the Motor .Boat Club of America and the Larch- mont Yacht Club, all international boat events’ held in United States waters are to be governed here by the Automobile Club of America. The Motor Boat Club becomes the motor boat section of the Automobile Club of America, while the Larchmont Yacht Club secures for the waters adjacent to Larchmont harbor all motor boat races of international character to be held in the vicinity of New York. This, however, is not to affect ar- rangements already made for the 1909 race for the Harmsworth cup.

Glidden Tour to Start July 12. DETROIT, Mich., April 12.—It was learned today that owing to the cele- bration of Independence Day, Monday, July 5, the start of the Glidden automo- bile tour, scheduled for that day, has been postponed to the following Mon- day, July 12. D. H. Lewis of Buffalo, the official pathfinder of the tourists, Mia today he expected the biggest field in the history of the event to start in this year’s run.

Ford Cars Are Entered, Henry Ford, president of the Ford Mo- tor Co., has announced his intention to enter two Model ‘“‘T’’ 20-horsepower cars in the ocean-to-ocean contest for the Guggenheim trophy. This announcement is interesting in view of the recent de- cision of the Manufacturers’ Contest As- sociation not to sanction the contest. Speaking of the contest, Mr. Ford said: “This is the first real contest ever promoted. It’s the biggest thing ever pulled off in the history of the industry. It’s the first opportunity given Ameri- cans to appreciate the real possibilities Lof the automobile. After its conclusion, the manufacturers will know more about building cars than they ceuld learn in a hundred of the common gar- den variety of endurance runs and the average everyday buyer will learn more about cars than in a dozen years of or- dinary events.”’

Sizing up the most !mportant factors of the situation, it appears as if the tendency is away from contests in which specially built racing cars may enter and more toward competition be- tween regular stock models of road cars. As the modern teuring car chassis is the equal or superior of the racer of a few years back, this tendency in no Way endangers the quality of sport to b* furnished.

ee Articles Will Be ends pionship Battle, to Take Place Next — October at Frisco, for a World’s Cham-

BY JOHN POLLOCK. NEW YORK, April 12. ACK JOHNSON will sign papers to- J night to fight Stanley. Ketchel in San Francisco on Oct. ll or 13. It will be a 45-round affair for a large purse, probably $30,000, although this point has not been absolutely decided upon. The bout was made possible after a half-night’s conference between Jim Coffroth and Johnson last night. Coff- roth, earlier in the night, had been in conference with Jim Jeffries in the hope, of learning just what were Jeff's inten- tions regarding a fight with Johnson; but to him, as to all others, Jeff gave an unsatisfactory answer, saying that he would not know for two or three months whether he would fight John- son, as all would depend upon his get- ting into good shape. The real facts are, Jeff realizes he is worth very much more to the men who have him under contract as a vaude- ville star as long as his fight plans are held in doubt than he would be if it were definitely known that he had signed up. Jeff and his people are making big money and have no thought of jeopardizing any part of it. In the course of the conversation Jeff told Coffroth that when he did decide on his future course he would require six or eight months in which to get into condition. It ig therefore plain that there will not be a fight between Jeff and Johnson until after next Christmas, if at all. Coffreth will meet Willus Britt, man- ager of Stanley Ketchel, and close the details of the Johnson-Ketchel fight. It wiil be done in private, as Coffroth says he can accomplish more in a heart-to- heart talk than if'a crowd of sports and reporters were present. (a Kaufmann Ought to Win. Al Kaufmann, the California heavy- weight, and Tony Ross, the Italian pugi- list of Newcastle, Pa.. are in excellent condition for thelr 10-round bout at Fairmount A. C,. tomorrow night.

Remedies are Needed ie Were we perfect, which we are not, medicines would not often be needed. But since our systems have be- come weakened, impaired and broken down through indiscretions which have gone on from the early ages, through countless generations, remedies are needed to aid Nature in correcting our inherited and otherwise acquired weaknesses. To reach the seat of stomach weakness and consequent digestive troubles, there is nothing so good as Dr. Pierce’s Golden Medical Discov- ery, a glyceric compound, extracted from native medic- inal roots—sold for over forty years with great satisfaction to all users. For Weak Stomach, Biliousness, Liver Complaint, Pain in the Stomach after eating, Heartburn, Bed Breath, Belching of food, Chronic Diarrhea and other Intestinal Derangements, the ‘‘Discovery’’ is a time-proven and most efficient remedy. The genuine has on its outside wrapper the : ignature 4 You can’t afford to accept a secret nostrum as a substitute for this non-alco- holic, medicine oF KNOWN COMPOSITION, not even though the urgent dealer may - thereby make a little bigger profit. ce eae | : : [Misete: Setureeeted, tiny greasie, ecsy'to tke ss omsdy. | Mf AYR ANT] M ANY BEGGAR ASKS POLICE CHIEF resent gos dp Thanks | ARON PA Mendicant, Whose Second Re- quest Is for Mercy.
