WOMAN ARRESTED FOR SINGING IN CAB CALLS POLICE OFFICER “OLD MAN” AND IS LOCKED UP Tells Night Commander at Station It’s None of His Business When She Was Married. A woman giving her name as Mrs. Katherine Dougherty, who was arrested late Tuesday night for singing with twq men in a cab, might have been re- leased if she had not addressed Lieut. Hess as ‘old man.’ Her familiarity with the night commander of Central District Police Station paved the way for her to a holdover ¢@ell. Mrs. Dougherty gave her age as 22 years, and address 2413 Dickson street. “When were you married?’ asked Lieut. Hess. “‘None of your business, old man,” she said. “Lock her up,” said Hess, addressing the patrolmen. The men gave their names as Louis H. Eaves of 2828 Pine street, and Louis Prazier of 3043 Olive street. The cab- man said they owed him $4.50, where- upon they inquired if they, too, were to be locked up. “Sure,”’ said Hess. “Well, wait until we finish this en- cagement before asking us to settle,” they said to the cabby. They will be sent to Police Court. FINDS MANY WAYS TO SPELL MAYOR'S NAME; ALL WRONG Police Court Clerk Aided by’ Mar- shal and Then Final “N” Is Missing. Charles J. Courtney, clerk of the Wy- oming Street Police Court, broke two pens and spoiled 16 envelopes Wednes- day in trying te write the name of the new Mayor. It is the clerk’s duty each day to make a transcript of the ceurt docket and mall it to the chief executive. After making up his list Ceurtney took an envelope from a pigeonhole, and wrote en it: “Rolla Wells, Mayor.’ Then he remembered. “Gee, I pretty near made a blunder,” he said, So he tried it over. Kriesman,”’ he wrote. right. “You don’t spell Frederick with an h on the end of it,’ said Marshal Matt Conkling. In subsequent attempts Courtney spelled the Mayor’s name Kreissman, Kriesman, Krismann, Krisman, Kriess- man, and several other ways. “Just let me have the pen,”” said Cenkling. “I can get it correct if I write it out.’ He addressed the envelope: rick H. Kreisman.”’ That's the way it went to the City Hall. And it was wrong because the final “‘n"’ was missing.

LAW REQUIRES $13,000,000 BOND FROM COLLECTOR} Koeln Has Arranged to Give Surety for $700,000, Same as Predecessors.

BIG SUM PROHIBITIVE

Surety Company Officials Say New Statute Requires an Impossibility.

With the newly elected Republican of- ficials complaining of a heavy increase in the cost of surety bonds, has the most severe demand of all fallen on Koeln, A stat- ute passed by the Missouri Legislature and approved Feb. 26, 1907, would him to in the monumental sum 0of 000,000. To do this would at the lowest available rate, much more of $10,000. within Edmond Collector-elect. if upheld, bond $13, - him, require give cost than his annual salary This will next two weeks, matter come, the before Mayor Kretis- mann, who, under the statute, has sole approving the It is expected that he will refer the question to the City Ceunselor. The question raised by the new law has aroused great interest at the City Hall. It is regarded as likely that Collector Hagerman will have te held over until it is settled. A $13,000,000 bond is gener- ally regarded as a requirement impos- sible of fulfillment. Collector Hagerman and cessor, L. F. Hammer Jr., gave bonds of $700,000 each. The new law, passed during Hagerman’s term, applies specifi- cally to all county collectors, and to power ef Cotllector’s bond. his prede- }the collector for the City of St. Louis, It is an amendment to section 9206, chap- ter 149, Revised Statutes, and causes the section to read as follows: Every collector of the. revenue in the various counties of this State, and the Collector of the Revenuejin the City of St. Leuis, before enter- ing on the duties of his office, shall give bond and security to the State, to the satisfaction of the county courts, and in St. Louis, to the sat- isfaction of the’ Mayor of said city, in a sum equal to the amount of all the revenue to be collected by him for one year, conditioned that he will faithfully and punctually collect and pay over all State, county and other revenues for the four years next ensuing the first day of March thereafter, and that he will in all things faithfully perform the duties of the office of Collector according to law. The official bond required by this section shall be signed by at least five solvent sureties. Collections $13,000,000 Last Year. As the collections of taxes and li- censes for 1908-9 were $13,000,000, the +statute would seem to require the Col- lector’s bond to be placed at that sum. “T have arranged for a $700,000 bond, the same as Mr. Hagerman gave,” said Collector-elect Koeln to a Post-Dispatch reporter Wednesday. ‘I have placed $400,000 of it with one agency and $300,- 000 with another.’ He said he had heard noting of the likelihood of having to iurnish a $13,- 000,000 bond» The $700,000 bond is di.- vided into $300,000 to the Board of Edu- cation and $200,000 each to the City and State, and is the largest bond given by any city official. Surety company officials said Wednes- day that no company or combination of companies would provide a $13,000,000 bond for any man. Such a requirement, they agreed, would be preposterous, and result in keeping the new C:--ector from taking office. Treasurer Quick Files Bond, The only bends filed with the City Register by the new officials up to Wednesday noon were those of Leon W. Quick, Treasurer-elect, for $500,000, and George P. Weinbrenner, re-elected Marshall, $10,000. Lawyers said Wednesday that the new statute unquestionably required Keeln to give a bond equal to the aggregate amount collected, and that the State law would supersede city ordinances on the subject. The city charter fixes the Col- lector’s minimum bond at $200,000, and the $700.000 which the last two collec- tors have given was fixed by city ordi- nances and by the Board of Education. The annual premium charged by sure- ty cempanies for bonds running into the hundreds of thousands of dollars was formerly 1-10 of 1 per cent of the amount of the bond or $1 on $1000. Some of the officials now trying to arrange their bonds are complaining of an in- crease In this rate. Surety company officials say the in- crease is due to an abandonment ef the former policy ef price-cutting and spe- cial rates to get business. They deny the charge of some of the officials that there is a combination for the purpose of forcing rates UP. A bill now pending in the Assembly at Jefferson City fixes the maximum premium rate at $5 en $1000. There is a movement among officials to have this maximum reduced te $2 Even at $2 on $1000, the Comptreller's $300,000 bond would cost him $600 a year, or nearly one-eighth of his 000 salary.

PLACES NECK I NOOSE AND FIRES BULLET IN HEART -+—-_- o -—— ~~ Charles Frehland, 63, Shoots Self and Swings, Dead, Into Space. MILKMAN FINDS BODY Clothing Ignited; Either Hang- ing or Wound Would Have Been Fatal.

With a knotted rope about his neck, Charles Frehland, 68 seated himself before daylight the roof of a shed adjoining his dwell- ing at 1629 Franklin and fired a bullet into As his body the shed, fastened to the porch above, tightened about his neck. A milkman, entering the dark rear yard, saw a dull circle of flame halfway between the porch and the pavement, and smelled burning cloth. He did not distinguish the suspended form. ‘“‘There’s some rags burning in that yard,’ the milkman told two passing policemen. They entered the yard and saw Frehland’s body, the shirt front ablaze. A dash of water from the yard hydrant extinguished the fire, and the policenten, climbing the stairs, cut the rope at the place where it was knotted about the porch railing. Either Would Have Killed Him, The bullet wound was such, physt- cians said, as to cause instant death, and the noose, formed by Ilrehland with a new clothesline, doubled, was so formed that it could hardly have failed of its purpose. The doubly sure method of suicide was the result of a careful plan. Freh- land had frequently asked his son, Wil- liam Frehland, with whom he lived, to get him a revolver. Because of thess requests, William had kept a close watch on his father, and slept in the same bed with him nightly. Frehland arose -ore time between 3 and 4 a, m. withcut waking his son, and, going out upon the porch, adjusted the two ends of the rope. Then, appar- ently, he lowered himself to the shed in the mext yard and sat en its edge, his feet hanging over into his own yard. In this position he shot himself, and pitched forward, dead, into the air. He had been an invalid for several months. years old, Wednesday on avenue, his heart, plunged from the rope,

The boat, the largest plying the upper Ohie, went down clese to ghore after striking a reck and tearing a hole three feet long in the hull. Although handicapped by darkness, a Ligh wind and drenching rain, the crew managed to place the 50 passengers safely in boats and put them ashere. They were taken scantily clad, to a fire engine house in Wellsville, and later reached a hotel by means ef a police patrol wagon. Today the passengers were sent to this city by ratlroad. The Virginia's trip from Cincinnati ‘vas without mishap until Wheel'ng was reached early last evening. At this point a severe windstorm was encoun- tered and the big packet was tossed about in the Ohio River like a small boat. It was impossible to land af Wheeling, and the Virginia continued toward this city. After a short time the storm abat and the passengers became quiet, in the belief all dangers were passed. A ma- jority ef them sought their berths. About ll e’clock the steamer, which is Said to have been leaking badly from an earlier accident, entered the channel here. When yet some distance from shore the steamer struck an obstruction with terrific force. The boat jarred mightily and the pas- Sengers were thrown from their berths, In a moment all were rushing panic- stricken to the saloon ef the bo&t. Bag- Kage and valuables were forgotten. Aft- er the excited passengers had reached the saloon they were quickly surround- ed by a crew of 75 men and restrained. Boats were brought into service and before the steamer settled all were safe- 1. tie

= = Photographs Already Submitted in the . Post-Dispatch Contest. Show That Work Does Not Spoil Symmetry.

WOMAN has written a card A to the Hand Contest Editor, saying: ‘Beautiful hands are those that do work that is earnest, brave and-true.’ And this card has called attention to the employment. of.the shapely hands, photographs of which have been sent in as entries in the Post- Dispatch beautiful hand contest. Some of the hands are unusued to any more difficult employment than fingering piano keys. Others are skilled in needlework, embroidery, dressmak- ing. Others are busy daily at the typewriter keys. Others at the coun- ters of department stores. The interest manifested in the con- test has not been confined to ahy section of the city or to any class of women. The pictures of beautiful hands submitted belong in some cases to wonien of social prominence, and in others to girls who earn not only their own living, but are the mainstay of their families. But there 1s no grace and shape- liness of the hands possessed by the one class that the other does not en- joy. The hands of the woman who does not work are not always prettier than the hands of the woman who does, which sustains the contention of artists, sculptors: and saleswomen at the glove counters that all St. Louis women’s’ hands are exceptionally beautiful. Glove Manufacturer Is in Ridiculous Attitude. HE Eastern glove manufacturer ae who made the statement that St. Louis women wear 91-2 gloves was convicted of error before the investigation was started, almost, and now that so many entries have been made in the Post-Dispatch con- test, the luckless manufacturer has been put in a most ridiculous atti- tude.

Oh, why did she not give you up when she saw how madly I loved you. But alas, too late now. I do not see any place in the future and will not live to commit any more sin than I have.

TmNEWUSE SLATED FOR THE POLICE BOARD Hadley Plans to Name Him and Kirby to Succeed Fris- toe and Gray.

By a Stat Derrespendent of the Post- Dispate JEFFERSON CITY, April /i4.—Gov. Hedley is planning to name Thomas K. Niedringhaus and Dan Kirby as police commissioners in St. Louis, to succeed John W. Fristoe and Ben Gray Jr., whose terms expired in January, For Election Commissioner, in place of Benjamin F. Schnurmacher, who has decided to retire, the Governor is con- sidering Robert M. Fulton, formerly Chief Postoffice Inspector at St. Louis. The St. Louis Republican City Com- mittee is desirous.that Horace G. Bee- dle, newly appointed secretary of the Board, should be Election Commission- er. Gov. Hadley, however, has decided to go outside of the Board for a new commissioner. The Governor and Mr. Fulton, who is now practicing law in St. Louis, have been «personal friends many years. Thomas K. Niedringhaus, formerly was chairman of the Republican State Committee. He was defeated for United States Senator in 1905 aS a result of the Kerens forces bolting the Republi- can legislative caucus. Although Nied- ringhaus and the Republican City Com- mittee have not been frien@ly, it is understood the latter will not object to his appointment. The Governor prefers that Dwight F. Davis should become president of the Police Board. It is reported here that Police Commissioner Bland, as well as Fristoe and Gray, will retire from the Board and this will give the Governor a chance to name three commissioners. These, appointments will be an- nounced probably within a few days. CORPORATION TAX BILL LOSES Senate Defeats Measure for 25c Levy Per $1000 Captali- zation.

MORNING PAPERS “SCOOP” ALL. YELLOWDRAMA HOUSES IN CITY Thrilling Experience in Locked Vault, With Telegraph Tapping Climax, Was Dreamed. S. E. Bonneville, clerk, and Miss Dora Benson, telegraph operator at the Planters Hotel, were busy “Wednesday denying that they were a hero and a heroine. It was a pretty story that was told about them in two morning papers. Bonneville, so it ran, was putting valu- ables in the hotel safe when another clerk, not knowing he was tlfere, closed the door. Bonneville was the only one in the hotel who knew the combination and the door was so thick he couldn’t make anybody hear him when he tried to tell them what the magic letters were. He would have smothered to death if Miss Benson hadn't recalled that he was a telegraph operator in his youth. She used a paper-weight to tick off a question on the outside of the vault door, Bonneville responded by tapping on the inside with his penknife and thus gave her the combination. The other clerk swung the door open and Bonneville was free. Assistant Manager Walker not only denied the story, but demonstrated that a man’s voice could easily penetrate the vault’s thin doors, The chief clerk of another hotel said two morning newspaper reporters had asked him to “stand” for the same | story.

BY GOGGLES, FALLS 10 DEATH Bricklayer Wearing Spectacles He Wasn’t Used to, Plung- es From Scaffold, A pair of goggles he was not accus- tomed to wearing cost James Smith, a bricklayer of 4458 Kossuth avenue, his life Wednesday morning. Smith was laying brick in the sev- enth story of the new factory for the Peters Shoe Co. at Glasgow avenue and North Market street, about nitiety feet from the ground. He had remarked to fellow workmen that he was not used to the goggles and could not see through them properly. \ Owing to this barrier to his vision, he made a misstep on the seaffold at ll o’clock, lost his balance and fell. Smith’s head struck a concrete foun- dation that is being laid for the engine room. in the basement. He was killed instantly. His-right arm wags: almost severed at the elbow, through striking one of the .boards in the framework holding the concrete. Smith was about 36 years old and was employed by the Kiel & Daus Brick. laying and Contracting Co. After the accident all the other bricklayers on the building quit work for the day. Smith was married and lived with his wife, Mamie, and two children. He is the third killed during the construc- tion of the factory. While the founda- tion was being laid a teamster was kicked in the head by a mule and in- stantly killed. About two weeks ago a painter from Springfield, Ill, fell out 6f a fourth- story window with the window sash and was fatally injured. He died a day after the accident. | 7OTH BALLOT TAKEN IN ILLINOIS Voting in Senate Contest Will Be Resumed Tomorrow. SPRINGFIELD, fil.)

BRIBE OFFER 10 PROSECUTOR N LOS ANG Fleming Makes Public Grand Jury Testimony Against Police Commissioner.

LOS ANGELES, €al., April 14.—Dis- trict Attorney l'red ricks has made pub- lic the grand jury testimony which re- sulted in the indictment of former Police Commissioner Samuel Schenck on a charge of bribery. It was alleged that Schenck, who is out on bail awaiting trial, offered City Prosecutor Fleming bribe money if he would cease his efforts tu close up the Redlight district. Fleming’s testimony was to the effect that Schenck took him to luncheon and there made 1 , -oposition to him. - leming testified that Schenck said: “There is money in this proposition in Commercial street, and you can have yours every month. You can just as well retire independent.”’ “ Well,’ I said, ‘Sam, that sounds fine, aoesn't it?’ Later I told him I would think about it. That was the end of the incident. He offered me no specific amount of money.’’ Wanted to Regulate It. After some of the rajds directed by Fleming, Schenck, it is alleged, made another call at the City Prosecutor's office. “The Mayor thinks you are getting too long-haired,’’ Schenck told Fleming. Tl.e Mayor was sent for and an inter- view followed. “I believe jn regulating this thing,’’ Fleming testified the Mayor told him. “I thought you would be reasonable; but you want to be like the preachers. You want to raise hell all the time.’’ “I told him,” continued Fleming, ““*Mr. Mayor, yo. are in the hands of designing scoundrels.’ Then I told him of the incident of Schenck offering me a bribe. “His face turned white and he said ‘My God, I didn’t think such a thing.’ ”’ _@harmnber order, usually long drawa out, nd Often unsatisfactory.

1600 Women Lobbyists De- scend on Illinois Lawmakers to Plead for Bills.

SPRINGFIELD, TIll., April 14.—Un- masking a battery of smiles and ar- guments on the members of the Gen- eral Assembly the equal suffrage lobby invaded the floor of the Hall of Repre- sentatives and the Senate chamber and ‘sought to enlist legislators in favor of Nel- | the woman’s suffrage bills now pend- ing before the Assemply. Scarcely a member of either house escaped a feminine request that he add his vote to those pledged to support the cause. Almost every member of the suffrage lobby wore a yellow flower and a pitcher of yellow tuitps adorned the speaker's table. In the Senate Lieutenant-Governor Oglesby ordered the Secretary of the Senate, James H. Paddock, to read Sen- ate rule No. 60, which bars the general public from the Senate floor. The women were escorted to seats in the galleries. Chaplain G. W. Dungan, in his prayer, “thanked God for the pres- ence of so many ladies, Knowing there- by their interest in purer politics and better government.”’ In the House no rulé was announced, but the women, learning of the action of the Senate, left the floor of their own accord and sought vantage points in the galleries. Twenty-five members of the equal suf- frage lobby are to address the joint meeting of the Senate and House com- mittees on the Chicago charter this af- ternoon. Two Men on Program. Among these are two men, T. C. Me- Millen, president of the Men’s Equal Suffrage League, and Oliver W. Stew- art of Chicago. They will discuss the men's view of equal suffrage.

7. LUIS SHOULD ADVERTISE ITSELF With City in Luncheon , Speeches. PLEA FOR UNION MADE Business Men’s Organization Is Scored for Its Lack of ” Co-operation. —

While uttering pleas for the proper “boosting” of St. Louis, the members of the St. Louis Advertising Men's League did not hesitate to hand out a few raps at “the stagnation of the town,” the principal shortcoming being, in their estimation, that thing closest to their own hearts—advertisement. Few eulogies were spoken at the luncheon of the league at the Planters Wednesday. The “ad men” listened to speeches*by I. H. Sawyer, their presi- dent, who is a director of the Brown Shoe Co.; Edward E. Scharff, president of the Merchants’ Exchange; A. G. Werremeyer, secretary of the North St. Louis Business Men’s Association, and Prof, Herbert W. Hess of the McKin- ley High School. Mr. Sawyer said that while the ob- ject of the Advertising Men's League is to ‘‘boost’’ St. Louis and all within her gates, it was not unseemly to rec- ognize that the city is faulty in many respects and decidedly backward. In other words, he said, St. Louis is ‘‘shy’’ on advertising herself. He paid his respects to the Million Club in the following language: “Has the Million Club set its figure of population sufficiently high? We now have a population between 700,000 and 800,000. Why should St. Louis go after an increase of only 200,000? Let the Million Club change 2,000,000. Increase in Shoe Business. ‘The shoe manufacturers a few years ago set their ambitions at an annual business of $5,000,000. Some of them have reached twice and thrice that, and the slogan now is 20,000,000. “The removal of the stockyards from North St. Louis to East St. Louis was a sample of early incapacity on the part or the various organizations whose business it was to ‘boost’ St. Louis. The removal would not have been made if the Merchants’ 'Exchange, the Business Men's League and similar organizations had done their duty by the city. “There was talk of lack of space for the stockyvards in Missouri... Has IIlli- nois more space than Missouri for good works? We have all the room from here to Kansas City for factories and big enterprises, beginning at our city limits and going on as far as the land reaches. “The terminal situation is the great- est drawback the business of St. Louis has. It looks hopeless and we must be optimists to believe that some day ir will all come right. I have been told that the Business Men’s League is an asset of the Terminal] Association, and it looks as if that might be true.’ Mr. Scharff devoted his remarks to the necessity of forcing St. Louis fur- ther into the limelight, and the cultiva- tion of civic pride. “There is, in my judgment,” said Mr. Scharff, ‘‘one vital failing in the efforts that have been made to exploit St. Louis, to increase its population, to increase its influence, and to draw peo- ple and industries here, and that is a lack of concerted effort on the part of those who, while unquestionably work- ing for the good of the city, are not working together with those who are striving in the same direction. We have many organizations here, each of which seems to have taken a different field of endeavor, each creditable in its, way, and each unquestionably helping to do eood. But there is strength in union, and union is, in my opinion, essentially needed at this time. Lack of Concerted Effort. ‘Rivalry among our business organiza- tions is a good thing. It stimulates the endeavors of the others. But we are net growing in influence as fast as we should, and it is to be ascribed to the very fact that we are not pulling to- gether. “TF do not like to refer again to Kan- sas City. We have heard so much of Kansas City lately that we are apt to belittle our own growth—and really St. Louis is not quite as backward as-she sometimes is painted—but we can learn from even our smallest competitors, and we can see what 1s being done in other towns by concerted effort to increase the trade prestige.” Prof. Hess told how to get results in studying the psychology of their business and by going after the ema- tional element of people in advertising their wares, A. G. Werremeyer said that since the day of the World’s Fair sticker, which everybody in those days sent broadcadt on the outside of their correspondence, there had never been a concerted effort to force St. Louis into the spotlight. He advocated the repeal of the city ordinance which prohibits the building of signs more than 18 inches beyond the building line. This prevented the mer- chants, he said, from advertising with electric signs as they might otherwise, He said that even towns 48 small as Springfield, Mo., and Springfleld, 1), excelled St. Louis in illumination. He pleaded for more light.

Chouteau Dyer and Wife Go to See Helen Boyie at Sharon, Pa. In the hope of discovering their miss- ing housemaid, “Clara,’’ who disap- peared Sept. 30, 1907, on the same morn- ing that $6100 worth of jewelry was stolen from a small cabinet at their home, 19 Lenox place, Mr. and Mrs. H. Chouteau Dyer have gone to Sharon, Pa., to look at Mrs. Helen Boyle, Willie Whitla kidnaping suspect, under arrest there. The girl who disappeared from. the Dyer home at the time of the theft was a new employe. Mrs. Dyer had not even learned her surname, knowing her only as “‘Clara.’’ She was about 25 years old and had “‘blue-gray eyes, with a cast in one of them.”’ It was the girl’s duty to attend the Dyer baby while the family was at meals in the dining room. On the morn- ing of the theft, the Dyers were at breakfast. When Mrs. Dyer returned to get the baby she found the little fel- low alone and eating candy which Mrs. Dyer had forbidden. Stolen Jewels Worth 86107. A small writing desk which had con- tained jewelry was open and a pair of pliers lying on the desk showed how it had been forced. The jewels stolen were valued at $6107 and the list in- cluded 4 half-dozen rings, several of them set with diamonds; diamond pins. diamond-set bracelets, cuff buttons and other articles of jewelry. A negro man servant in the Dyer home said that while the family was at breakfast he saw “‘Clara’’ depart by a side door and hurry away through Lenox place. The Dyers have not seen either the missing jewels nor the missing servant since that day, although the police forces of all the big cities have been searching for both. The Baltimore police said that they thought the girl was from that city, a professional thief who made a practice of engaging service in wealthy homes and then stealing jewelry. A suspect is under arrest now at Dresden, Germany, but has not been identified. Pictures Resemble “Clara,” Mrs. Dyer has seen published photo- graphs of Helen Boyle and has read newspaper descriptions of the woman. She came to the conclusion several] days ago that the pictures resembled ‘‘Cla- ra” and that the description fitted Clara, also. Accordingly, it was decided that she and Mr. Dyer would go to Sharon and look at the famous prisoner there. Excited His Curtlosity.

From a Staff Correspondent of the Yost-Dispatch., JEFFERSON CITY, April 14.—It has been practically determined by legisla- tive leaders that the bill Sunday baseball in Missouri will not be It to prohibit passed by the General Assembly. will die from lack of support. Simultaneously with the opening of the baseball season about $20,000 worth of annual baseball passes have been received from the St. Louis magnates by members of the Legislature and their private secretaries. The favors were sent by Col. R. Lee Hedges, presi- cent of the Browns, and G. Stanley Robison, executive head of the Cardi- nals. Each representative and senator has received an @nnual pass and many pri- vate secretaries have received game passes, nearly every one getting at least a ticket of admission to the opening game in St. Louis today. Some doubt as to the legal propriety of accepting the passes was expressed by legislators, and, to set these doubts at rest, Attorney-General Major was consulted. He has rendered an opinion that the law forbidding the issuance of railroad passes and similar favors does not apply to free baseball tickets. Big Saving to Magnates, It is reported, however, that there are several legislators who do not think ac. ceptance of the passes is strictly ethi- cal, and a few said they would return the tickets. A season ticket to either of the league parks in St. Louis is estimated to _be worth $62.50. Tickets to the games of both leagues are worth, therefore, $105. There are 176 members of the Legisla- ture, Sunday baseball games in St. Louis— about thirty such games being played during the season—is said to net $120,- 000 or $150,000 more than the value of the free tickets sent to legislators. The anti-Sunday baseball bill never has had much chance of passage. I+ was reported out of committee once, but sent back immediately, and has not been heard from since.

NEW YORK, April 14.—What Oriental women are doing in politics, a subject of particular interest at this time in view of the revolutionary disturbances in Turkey, is told by Col. Mesrope Nev- ton Kahn, a member of the Imperial Persian Legation. In an address before the Women’s Re- publican Club at the Waldorf yesterday he declared the suffrage movement in England was nothing compared with the activity of the women in the Orient. “Practically all the arms and ammuni- tion and dynamite carried across the frontiers of Turkey, Persia and Russia at the present time are smuggled over by women, who carry them under their skirts,”’ said Nevton. “When politics touches the home and bread and butter, the women begin to be interested. Turkey and Persia are about three hundred years. behind America. Politics is in a disruptive condition, about as it was here at the time of the Boston tea party. All is riot and murder, and that is what the women there are doing now. When they want anything done in the East they are very apt to put the woman for- ward, “I have seen a woman attack a man in the street, and, while he would not have stood it from a man, he would Submit to the woman.” After hearing Col. Nevton’s address, the clubwemen voted to send sympa- thetic greetings to the women of the East. Both at The Same Time. From the Boston Transcript. “What are you talking about?

FUNDS BADLY NEEDED New Building and Athletic Ground Included in Plans for Improvement. In the establishment of a nonsectar- jan Advisory Board of 25 prominent St. Louisans, the faculty and alumni of St. Louis University have made the first step in a plan to make the university one of the best equipped in the West, To work out the pzan will necessitate the raising of $2,000,000. Members of the faculty say that there is nothing radical in the fact that a number of the board members are non- Catholics. Since 1903 when the univer- sity took over the Marion-Sims-Beau- mont Medical College for its medical department the faculty of the univer- sity has numbered men of all faiths. And since the university first opened its doors in St. Louis the classrooms have always been open to those of different religious beliefs. The Advisory Board will not take the control of the university away\from the Jesuits. The Board of Trustees of the university is con:posed_ entirely of Jesuits and this, board will not be changed. Planning to Reise Funds, Rev. Fr. Frieden, president of the uni- versity, explained the creation of the Advisory Board to a Post-Dispatch re- porter in the following statement. “The purpose of the Advisory Board is to have associated with the officers of the university a body of gentlemen whose names and standing in the com- munity will add to the efficiency of the university; men who ®™ interested in the advancement of the university in all its departments, who ure willing to make some sacrifice of their valuable time in watching over and promoting the interests of the university, who because of their experience are in a position to advise the university author- ities as to the procuring and assist them in procuring the necessary funds to support and develop the university.”’ Of the two milHNons which the Ad- visory Board hopes to raise, one-half will be put into an endowment fund. The other million will be spent in the construction of buildings for an en- gineering course, the purchase of the latest apparatus for the _ scientific courses, the building of a preparatory school in the West End and an athletic ground. Considering Athletic Ground, The athletic ground is designed to be even better equipped than the Wash- ington University Stadium. The Ad- visory Board has already considered the site of the ground which they desire to be on King’s highway. Placing the ground within the city limits will in- sure greater crowds for the different games and sports. Although St. Louis University was first opened when St. Louis was little more than a village, it has never been the beneficiary of any endowment fund. It has always been dependent on the fees received from the students fer board and tuition. As all of the money thus received has been spent by the faculty in enlarging the university, its ability to exist has rested chiefly on the fact that none of the Jesuits who teach in the university receives a sal- ary and on the small donations from time to time by friends of the institu- tion. The only large sums the university has received during its life were the donation of $70,000 by John Doyle of St. Louis, money raised by the sale of the property of the old college on Ninth street, and the donations made by friends and alumni which made possible the purchase of the Marion-Sims-Beau- mont School of Medicine. —————— Ancient History.

In Other Words, the ExPresi- dent Gave Himself Away by Denial. HAD NOT SEEN “STORY” “Interview” Disputed by For- mer Executive Before It Could Have Reached Him. Special Pm ~ nd eer Wome ho uma (Copyright. 1909, by Press Publishing Co.) PARIS, April 14.—“Pheodore Roose- velt is his own Judas,” writes Debon- effon in the Paris Journal. The qfarré] between Mr. Roosevelt and Deboneffon, a correspondent of the Journal, continues to arouse all Paris. Deboneffon asserted that he talked with Col. Roosevelt for half an hour aboard the steamship Hamburg at Naples, but Roosevelt did not know he was a newspaper mah. The Jour- nal affirmed that the “interview” as published was strictly accurate. Mr: Roosevelt telegraphed to the Paris Matin from Suez, at the east end of the canal: “I never saw any man by the name of Deboneffon.. I had no interview of any kind with anyone. The whole story is an impudent fabrication, without one particle of foundation of any kind whatever.” It was in consequence of this that Deboneffon retorted in the Journal) that M. Roosevelt was “his own Ju- das.’ Deboneffon says that Mr. Roose- velt was never praised by anyone more highly than by engee in the interview. “Why are these denials made before Mr. Roosevelt can have’ seen by any possibility the article in dispute?” De- boneffon asks, “and why are they not made direct to the newspaper publish- ing the interview, rather than through the medium of another?” Debonetfon intimates placidly that Mr. Roosevelt, who now speaks and writes only for large pay, is furious that he should have given an inter- view free. He makes the allegation that Mr.: Roosevelt, shewing an auto- graphed photograph of Emperor Wil- liam in his cabin on the Hamburg, gave the impression that the Emperor had presented it to him. Deboneffon says he learned later that the Emper- or gave the photograph to the Ham- bure’s officers . CUMMINGS CALLS ROOSEVELT GREATER THAN WASHINGTON Webster a “Dub” Compared to Aldrich and Henry Clay Not in Cannon’s Class, Says Senator. WASHINGTON, April 14.—Senator Cummins, former Governor of Iowa, who succeeded Mr. Allison in the upper house of Congress, jarred the Men’s Club of Mount Pleasant Congregational Church with the statement that Roose- velt was greater than Washington. While his hearers were trying to ad- just themselves to that point of view, Senator Cummins ran in the statement that Daniel Webster was a dub com- pared with Senator Aldrich and that Henry Clay was not in Speaker Can- non’s class. Of President Taft the Senator said: “T believe that if the present Presi- ‘dent of the United States reaches the day when he has served his country as the head ° thé nation for four years he will be @ greatest man the United State has ever produced.” CLUB’S PICTURES NOT SIEZED Judgment Settled When Constable Threatened Such Action. Henry J. Meer, assistant secretary of the Jeffersen Club, stated Wednesday that no picture of ex-Mayor Wells and Harry B. Haweg and no other article belonging to the’ club had been taken to satisfy’ any judgment against the club. He said he had never stated that any picture or other articles had been so taken. The Constable announced he would take the pictures of Hawes and Wells whereupon the judgment of $2 was paid. “Subscription lists afte new in circu- lation,” said Meer, “and the prospect is good that the association will soon be in as good financial condition as it ever was, despite the fact that a funeral procession is forming at the City Hall.” Special Announcement. “Dollar Down Dailey.” formerly in Century Building, is now manager for Loftis Bros., 24 floor, 08 N.

BY OHALLARON Judge Reduces Penalty to $1 in Knights of Columbus Carnival Court. FALLS INTO LEMONADE Girl Is Saved From Drowning in Stunt Not on the Pro- gramme. Former Chief of Police Mathew Kiely Was fined $29,240,000 Tuesday night by Justice of the Peace Anthony A. O’Hal- laron, chief justice of the court in the basement of the new Armory at Grand and Mauchester avenues, where the Knights of Columbus are holding their carnival. The charge against Mr. Kiely was that he conducts a detective bureau without a license. The court relented fina'ly and reduced the fine to $1, which was paid. “That's a dollar more than Standard Oil,”’ said Mr. Kiely. The court is an amusing feature of the carnival. Pretty girls who enjoy the dancing floor in the center of the big hall run many miscreants into court. What is called a Leap Year dance is conducted. If a girl requests a man to dance with her and he consents, it costs him 40 cents—four times the regu- lar price for a dance. .f he refuses, he is sent down to the court and fined $1 for offending a lady. Good weather brought out a crowd of 8000 Tuesday evening, and the proceeds for the evening were about $15,000. Dr. R. Emmet Kane, carnival chairman, gays he expects the week’s proceeds to be about $60,000. Everybody had a jolly time Tuesday evening. A thrilling rescue was a fea- ture not on the regular program. Miss Isabel Schulte, a pretty girl who dips lemonade from the three-foot well in the lemonade booth, stooped too far over the edge with her dipper and fell in. Chris Keohle, a customer, saved her from drowning in the lemonade. ’ The Kain Kouncil Kandy Kid Koun- ter sold $60 worth of candy during the evening. A large sum was realized from the sale of pieces of turf from Ireland, the “ould sod,’’ at 25 cents each. The fortune tellers’ booth is popular. Miss Floy Tasley and Miss Eleanor ‘Walsh are in charge. Miss Tasley, with @ rope, ropes the men, and Miss Walsh “tells their fortunes. Francis McCarthy of 1423 North Eighth street won a trip to Niagara Falls. Oth- er awards to be made during the week are a house and lot on Carter avenue, a trip to the exposition at Seattle, two trips to &t. Paul by boat and two auto- mobiles. Father F. J.

Amphion Ladies’ Chorus were heard for the first time, and a notable hit of the evening was made by a little girl vio- linist, Mary McCausland, ly making her first public appearance. The orchestra and the ladies’ chorus alike distinguished themselves by cred- itable work, and little Miss McCausland gave an astonishingly good interpreta- tion of Max Bruch’s concerto for the violin. The orchestra was heard at its best in the Jupiter Symphony of Mo- zart, and the ladies’ chorus sang with especially pleasing effect Alfred G. Ro- byn’s ‘‘Moonlight”’ and s.inders’ ‘‘Water Lilies.” The Amphion Club was heard in the sextet from “Lucia,” arranged by Mr. Robyn; in Joseph Rheinberger’s “Clarice of Eberstein,’’ with the ladies’ chorus, and in ‘‘Paul Revere’s Ride,” by Dudley Buck. Four vocal soloists, Miss Mabelle A. Hild, soprano; Mrs, Dr. McCandless, contralto; George H. Shef- field, tenor, and E. F. Orchard, basso, assisted in several of the program num- then virtual- bers.

The heavy rains had turned the small stream into a torrent. The horse was swept off his feet and, with the vehicle and occupants, carried under a water gate suspended across the creek just below the ford. Clark Reid was able to pull himself out of the water and the horse finally scrambled out, but the buggy and Miss Cowan were carried on. The vehicle was found this morning, but the body of Miss Cowan has not been recovered.

Tells Life of Country Boy. “The Unbroken Circle’ is the story of the life and temptations of Dan Sully, a boy who found the life of the small village uninteresting, and who went to the city hoping to maké his fortune and little dreaming of the troubles which beset the youth from the country when he first reaches the city. Dan Sully finds employment in a large department store at a small salary. He sees other young men who are making little more money than he dressing in the height of style. They attend the theater, and some of them play the races. One suggests that with all] the money which passes through his hands, he is slow if none of it sticks to his fingers. This is his and as he goes first great temptation, home that night he ponders over it. To escape his own theughts, he walks out on the streets. He receives many attentions from wom- en and one man stops him with a story of money to be made by betting on a game of cards in a room over a saloon. Ail the time Dan remembers his mother at home and her parting wor®@s that no matter how the family became sepa- rated the circle should remain unbroken. Honesty Truly Rewarded. Dan drifts into a church meeting and is greatiy stirred by the sermon. His employer is there and notices Dan’s agitation. The employer decides from Dan's action that he has been guilty of embezzlement and begins an investi- gation of the books which shows that the youth is honest, but that the head of the department has embezzled large sums. Dan is promoted and eventually becomes manager of the store at a large salary. “T am fully satisfied that the fiction I tell does much good,’’ said the Rev. Mr. String Tuesday. ‘I believe many peeple are reached who could not be impressed by a sermon. “There are many problems which a minister cannot discuss in a sermon which he can bring out forcibly. in a stcry written as though it were to. be published in a magazine. Stories Have a Moral. “There have been some objections raised that the stories Ixhave given in St. Louis and other cities have been such as would give a young man or a yeung woman who wishes to do wrong a perfect guide to the downward path, but I think that position is not well taken. The story invariably leads to a happy conclusion, which shows that honesty and right living only are profitable. It shows that the man who dees not live right always comes to a bad end. “In the preparation of my stories I have given them all the literary merit in my ability. I have endeavored to make them as interesting a8 any fic- tion one reads in the magazines, and I have had much success with them. They have moved congregations which my sermons failed to impress. “I do not wish to be understood as taking the position that the Bible should not be preached, because I do not be- lieve that. Religion is a mighty. fac- tor in the world and were it not for religion there would be very, little good, but to many persons outside the church, the ones we are seeking to bring into it, the Scriptures do not appeal suf- ficiently to be preached with great suc- cess. “By interesting stories many of these can be brought into the church. Then they see the value of religion.” ENDS LIFE ON MOTHER'S GRAVE Theatrical Man Shoots Himself in Baltimore Cemetery.

MAYOR KREISMANN’S POLICY. Mayor Kreismann’s plan for a joint committee of the Municipal Assembly to meet and confer with himself and the heads of departments on important questions of public interest and to de- vise ways and means to accomplish desirable ends is good. It will contribute to the harmonious co- opération of all departments of the city govern- ment. It should develop ideas for the betterment of the city. : The new Mayor’s inaugura! was indicative of an intention to serve the public. The hint of the adoption of the merit system for our public in- stitutions, the recommendation of a careful pres- ervation of public rights and interests in fran- chise grants, the promise of the complete con- trol of public utilities in the interest of the people are on sound lines of municipal progress. The Mayor’s pledge to continue the work of abolishing grade crossings until all are eliminated is hailed with satisfaction. His suggestion of a commission to take up each crossing and work out a sgtisfactory plan may be valuable. The people will await with interest his plans to assure reasonable rates for electricity and gas. The Mayor’s promise to make party subordi- nate to public ends in the appointment of sub- ordinates is a welcome indication that the public and not the party machine won in the election. Altogether the Mayor’s address was reassuring. If results accord with promises the city will have no reason to regret the change of admin- istrations. = = -_ = -_— = = This is the day. that marks the beginning of the season when Ananias scores every inning.

THE SYMPHONY SOCIETY. The endowment fund of $50,000 voted the St. Louis Symphony Society to be expended for five years in sums of $10,000 a year insures not. only the continuance, but the enlarged usefulness of that institution. , With this fund the society will probably be placed on a self-supporting basis. A regular,sal- ary list will make it possible for performers to make \it a main object, and not as at present, a by-interest which must necessarily occupy a sec- on place in the order of importance. his society has done pioneer work in ad- * vancing the cultural interests of St. Louis. To say nothing of the regular serfes of evening con- «certs, the popular Sunday afternoon concerts have been of the highest educational value and have stimulated an appetite for the best music among people who, without this opportunity, would never have felt the ennobling influence of great art. A ne‘ career now opens for the society which is full of promise for St. Louis. With a popula- tion as apt to respond to the finer claims of life and as eager to supply the higher needs of the mind as that of any other city in the country, we may expect within a comparatively few years to take rank beside Boston and New York as a center of enlightened intelligence. = = — — Good evening!

The tariff issue has resolved itself into a strug- gle not to lower the exorbitant and oppressive Dingley rates, but to have them retained as the lesser of two evils. The absurdity of this situatjon can be ap- preciated only by letting the mind travel back to the conflict of last fall. Then the Dingley law was the black beast of the Republicans. It was a malevolent influence in the campaign. They rejected it as the expression of their tariff ideas. They admitted it was obsolete. They apologized for it, explained it and promised, with vehement emphasis, to reform and revise, it along newly defined lines. Skeptical Democrats and unbelieving advocates of revision looked askance at their promises. They, at least, were unwilling to trust the re- vision of the tariff to the men who had perpe- trated the original crime. Were the skeptics and unbelievers right? Taking advantage of the desperate situation in the Treasury, the standpatters became solicitous as to the nation’s revenue. They would impose a few taxes, not for protection’s sake, but to pro- vide against the growing deficit. Surely the na- tion must have money to meet its expenses and obligations. The Payne bill, as explained and\excused, was modeled along revenue lines. It originally placed ‘la tax on tea and coffee, on spices, gloves and stockings and on some other things just to help the Treasury. It lowered the rate on sugar just enough to help the trust. The prime movers in it were clever, deft and experienced. Cannon and Payne and Dalzell, dev- otees of protection since its birth, have had their natural endowments developed by a_ thousand forensic contests. Nelson W. Aldrich is a mighty collaborateur in any scheme of tariff making. The three representatives did the preliminary work. It was left for Aldrich to preserve “the symmetry of the schedules.” In the role of smug hypocrite, Aldrich is a complete success. He has advanced to the center of the stage to announce that the necessities of the people must not be taxed. To gain revenue we will tax luxuries, he says. Yachts are a luxury and 35 per cent is their portion. It answers a useful spectacular purpose and our millionaire owners of foreign- built yachts can continue to sail them under for- eign flags. And automobiles, another luxury, shall pay 45 per cent on everything, limousine, tailboard, lamp and tire, and our millionaires can save the money and buy better ones at home. But, says Mr. Aldrich, tea and coffee and spices must be free. It is a notable concession. It will still popular clamor. It will mollify an aroused people. It will restore to them—what? Just what they have under the benefactions of the Dingley law. . This Payne bill tax on gloves, on stockings—the gloves of the mothers, the stockings of the chil- dren—is an awful tax, says Aldrich. It must not stand. So he restored the rate to just what it is under the exorbitant Dingley law. The duty on lead ore stands as in the Payne bill and the Dingley law. But “to preserve the symmetry of the schedules,’ the Senate” has been obliged to raise the rates on lead products throughout the bill to correspond to the duty on lead ore. There is “bitter disappointment” that the Senate bill reduces the rate on crude barytes to what it was in the Dingley law. It is increased in the Payne bill only 100 per cent. The ‘‘commendable’’ work of the Senate has been to restore the Dingley rates. It is considered a mighty achievement and a great victory for a. tax-burdened peOple when the Dingley rates are retained and are not raised. Not a word has been said about the inheritance tax commended by Roosevelt and Taft as a rev- enue producer. There is no word for an income tax that would put burdens where there is strength to bear them. It is reported that President Taft, a one-time declared revisionist and open advocate of lower rates, will sign any bill Cannon, Payne and Ald- rich approve. It is difficult to believe that Mr. Taft is going to make an abject surrender to the forces which this trio of tariff jugglers represent and typify. We decline to believe that William Howard Taft, having eyes to see, ears to hear and a mind to think, does not understand the machi- nations of the tariff friumvirate who made the Dingley law a fraud against the people and an economic crime. —— rT Gov. Hadléy has hit the bull’s eye in the anti- railroad pass bill. No legislator or State employe in this crisis of the State’s attempt to control the railroads should have a pass in his pocket.

r- e e TEARS IN POLITICS. We are told that Mr. Wells’ eyes were suffused with tears when he passed the Mayor’s office over to Mr. Kreismann. Mr. Wells’ case is not exceptional, for strong men often shed tears when they finish the labors of years successfully performed. Physiologically speaking, a tear is a drop of the limpid saline fluid secreted, normally in small amounts, by the lachrymal gland and diffused between the eye and the eyelids to, moisten the parts and facilitate their motion. Ordinarily the secretion passes through the lachrymal duct into the nose, but when it is increased by emotion or other causes, it overflows the lids. How can politicians use this limpid saline fluid in their business? A .woman uses it whenever she wants anything that is denied her. Why cannot political bosses who are smarter than women use it to get what they want? For in- stance, to procure the mercy of a prosecuting of- ficer in behalf of a faithful henchman, or to ex- tort the grant of a valuable franchise, or insure “regularity” at critical moments? Anointed by @ woman’s tears, the granite good sense of a man melts, thaws, resolves itself into a dew. Why shouldn’t the boss accomplish results equally use- ful in his sphere of activity? Femininism is making progress, and one of its symptoms is the touching appearance of the tear in the flashing eyes of the boss. A womanish boss! Matt Quay and old Bill Tweed will sit up in their graves and take notice.

I mn ra LETTERS In Which She Suggests That a Man’s Mother Ought to Keep Him Under a Glass Case and Guarded Like the “Crown Jewels.” Written for the Post-Dispatch By HELEN ROWLAND. ‘Y DEAR JACK: Your mother has been here— and I am returning your ring by special messenger. It seems that there has been a shocking mistake. I fancied I was doing you a favor and an honor in marrying you, But it appears that I am a Circe and a vampire and that I have just lured you into it. I am not in as the least good enough for you, and according to your mother’s glorified vision of yoy no gir! ever was or will be. You ought to be kept under a glass case and guarded like the ‘‘crown jewels.” Jack, dear, it was dreadful—the In- quisition and the Third Degree and the Reign of Terror all rolled into one. I felt it approaching the moment her — was brought up to me, and I wanted to fling up my hand#egnd cry with the Lady of Shalotte, “The CURSE has come upon me!"" But just for your sake I didn’t. Instead, I put on- my pale make-up and My Sunday morning ex- pression AND a sewing apron and went “down, down, down’ to-—well, where Faust went after the fun was over. And Mary Queen of Scots on her way to the block must have felt blithe and gay beside me. Dear boy, were you ever on trial for your life? Did you ever want to apolo- gize to anybody for the way the Lord made you? I was and I did. I plead “Not guilty,”’ and performed every lit- tle cunning trick I could to please her; yet she sat there like a graven image with that “I'll do my duty” expression, and I knew I wad convicted as ‘‘that woman, even before the first shot was fired. Honestly, I tried ta propitiate her— te convince her; but could you convince @ judge that you weren't guilty with the stolen goods at your heels? Could you propitiate a lioness whose cub had | followed’ you out of the jungle? Oh, long ago I discovered that there was a wrong side as well as a right aide to the mother-in-law question—the woman's side as well as the man’s side.

According to the joke writers, you would fancy that men’s mothers are all ANGELS with sweet, patient, martyred faces, soft white hair and smiling, ser- aphic old eyes, while women’s mothers, as everyone knows, have hooked noses, glittering bad eyes and carry pokers in their hands. And yet I don't believe there’s a stupid, selfish, grouchy old - bachelor Itving who wasn’t made so by his own mother. A woman seems to fancy that Providence gives her a daughter to be shifted off onto some man's shoulders, but that it gives her a son-—as it gives her a nose or a finger—to be attached to her through life. Cleopatra wouldn’t be beautiful enough, nor the Queen of Sheba rich enough, nor St. Cecilia good enough for the most insignificant speci- men of manhood that a mother ever cherished, . It’s no ulé trying to please her, be- Cause she can scent a love affair or a flirtation as far as a hunting dog can scent a rabbit; and from the moment her son cuts his calling list down to one address she regards him as a doomed man and you (the girl) as his Nemesis. Be charming and she will call you ‘fast,’ sweet and she will call you “de- ceitful,”” clever and she will say yeu “know too much” in a way to send cold shivers up and down the man’s spine. Dear Jack, even for you I cannot be- come a lifelong “prisoner at the bar.” Besides, if a mother-in-law is bad “be- fore taking’’ she will be worse “after taking;”” because a man is much more willing to listen to things against the woman he has won than he is to things against the girl he is trying to win. 1 can't write any more, Jack. I’m going away somewhere—I don’t care where! Of course, your mother will put her arms tenderly round your neek and soothingly assure you that she knew I was “that kind” of a woman all along, and that she “‘warned” you against me, anyhow. They always do after they have made a mess of things. Well, she has preserved her handi- work. Besides, she has saved me from perhaps becoming the mother. of a son and persecuting a helpless future gen- eration of poor young things on the hus- band hunt. But I do hope that some day you will run off with the cook— or a chorus girl. Good-by and a kiss from ME,

Richard was a bridge engineer and builder, and under Brodie built some of the first bridges on the moun- tain division, notably the great wooden bridge at Smoky Creek. Richard brought out his nephew, Lance Dun- ning. He taught Lance bridge-build- ing, and Murray Sinclair, who began as a cowboy on the Stone ranch, learned bridge-building from Richard Dunning. The Dunnings both came West, though at different times, as young men and unmarried, and as far as estern women were concerned, matgnt always have remained:so. But a Kentucky cousin, Betty, one of the Fairfield Dunnings, related to Richard within the sixth or eighth degree, came to the mountains for her health. Betty’s mother had brought Richard up as a boy, and Betty, when he left “airfield, was a baby. But Dick—as they knew him at home—and the mother wrote back and forth, and he persuaded her to send Betty outfor a trip, promising he would send her back in a year a well woman. Betty came with only her colored maid, old Puss Dunning. who had taken her from the nurse’s arms when she was born and taken care of her ever since. The two—the tall Ken- tucky girl and the bent mammy—ar- rived at the Stone ranch one day in June, and Richard, done then with bridges and looking after his ranch ir.terests, had already fallen violently in love with Betty. She was delicate, but, if those in Medicine Bend who re- membered her said true, a_ lovely creature. Remaining in the mountains was the last thing Betty had ever thought of, but no one, man or woman, could withstand Dick Dunning. She fell quite In love with him the first time she set eyes on him in Medicine Bend, for he was very handsome in the saddle, and Betty was fairly wild about horses. So Dick Dunning wooed a fond mistress and married her and buried her, and all within hardly more than a year. But in that year they were very happy, never two happier, and when she slept away her suffering she left him, as alegacy,atiny baby girl, Puss brought the mite of a creature in its swaddling clothes to the sick mother —very, very sick then—and poor Bet- ty turned her dark eyes on it, kissed it, looked at her husband and whis- pered “Dicksie,” and died. Dicksie had been Petty’s pet name, for her mouatain lover, sothe father said the child's name should be Dicksie and nothing else; and his heart broke and soon he died. Nothing else, storm or flood, death or disaster, had ever moved Dick Dunning; then a_ sin- gle blow killed him. He rode once in a while over the ranch, a great tract by that time of 20,000 acres all in one body, all under fence, up and down both sides of the big river, in part irrigested, swarming with cattle—none of it stirred Dick! and with little Dicksie tn his arms he slept away his suffering. So Dicksie was left, as her mother had been, to Puss, while Lance looked after the ranch, swore at the price of cattle, and played cards at Medicine Bend. At ten, Dicksie, as thoroughly spotied as a pet baby could be by a fool mammy, a fond cousin, and a galaxy of devoted cowboys, was sent, in spite of crying and flinging, to a far away convent—her father had planned everything—where in many tears she Jearned that there were oth- er things in the world besides cattle and mountains and sunshine and tall, broad-hatted horsemen to swing from their stirrups and pick her hat from the ground—just to see little Dicksie laugh—when they swooped past the house to the corrals. When she came back from Kentucky, her grandmother dead and her school days finished, all .

Indigestion and Dyspepsia are often simple little matters at first, but if neglected will soon cause much pain oat distress. Pretty nearly every dis- éase that afflicts humanity is largely due to Indigestion; at least, Indiges- tion is the beginning of the trouble. The only way to restore health is to remove indigestion with Kodol. Every tablespoonful digests 2% pounds of food.

the land she could see in the valley was hers,andalltheliving creatures in the fields. It seemed perfectly natural, because since childhood even the distant mountains and their snows had been Dicksie’s. CHAPTER VI. In Marion’s Shop. N Boney Street, Medicine Bend, | stands an early-day row of one- story buildings; they once made up a prosperous block, which has long since fallen into the decay of paintless days, There is in Boney street a livery stable, a second-hand store, a laundry, a bakery. a moribund grocery, and a bicycle shop, and at the time of this storv there was also Marion Sinclair's millinery shop; but the better class of Medicine Bend business, such as the gambling houses, saloons, pawnshops, restaurants. barber shops, and those sensitive. clean-shaven, and alert es- tablishments known as “gents’ stores,” had deserted Boney street for many years. Bats fly in the dark of Boney street while Wront street at the same hour is a blaze of electricity and fron- tier hilarity. The millinery store stood next to the corner of Fort street. The lot lay in an “L,” and at the rear of the store the first owner had built a small connecting cottage to live in. This faced on Fort street, so that Marion had her shop and liv- ing rooms communicating, and et apart. The store building is still pointed eut as the former shop of Marion Sinclair. where George Mc- McCloud boarded when the Crawling Stone line was built, where Whisper- ing Smith mizht often have been seen, where Sinclair himself was last seen alive in Medicine Bend, where Dicksie Dunning’s horse dragged her senseless one wild mountain night, and where, indeed, for a time the affairs of the whole mountain division seemed to In her dining room, which con- nected through a curtained door with the shop, McCloud sat one day alone, eating his dinner. Marion was in front serving a -customer. McCloud heard voices in the shop, but gave no¢ heed till a man walked through the curtained doorway and he saw Murray Sinclair standing before him. A stormy interview with Callahan and Blood at the Wickiup had taken place just a week before, and McCloud after what Sinclair had then threatened, though not prepared, felt as he saw him that anything might occur. Mc- Cloud being in possession of the little room, however, the initiative fell on Sinclair, whe, looking his best, snatched his hat from his head and bowed ironically. “My mistake,” he said hlandly. “Come right in,” returned McCloud, not knowing whether Marion had a possible hand in her husband’s unex- pected appeezrance. “Do you want to see me?’ “T don’t.” smiled Sinclair: “and to be perfectly frank,” he added with studied consideration, “I wish. to God I never had seen you. Well—yvyou've thrown me, McCloud.” “You’ve thrown yourself, you. Murray?’ “From por point of view, of course, But, McCloud, this ts a small country for two points of view. Do you want to_get out of it, or do you want me Oo?” “The country suits me, Sinclair,” “No man that has ever played me dirt can stay here while I stay.” Sin- clair, with a Fand on the portiere, was moving from the doorway into the room. McCloud tin a leisurely way rose, though with a slightly flushed face, and at that juncture Marion ran into the room and spoke abruptly. “Here is the silk, Mr. Sinclair,”’ she exclaimed, handing to him a package she had not finished wrapping. “T meant you tu wait in the other room.” “Tt was an accidental intrusion,” re- turned Sinclair, maintaining his irony. “T have apologized, and Mr. McCloud and I understand one another better than ever,” “Please say to Miss Dunning,” con- tinued Marion, nervous and insistent, “that the band for her riding-hat hasn’t come yet, but it should be here tomorrow,” As she spoke McCloud learned across the table, resolved to take arene of the opening, if it cost him his life. “And by the way, Mr. Sinclair, Miss Dunning wished me to say to you that the lovely bay colt you sent her had sprung his shoulder badly, the hind shoulder, I think, but they are doing everything possible for it and they think it will make a great horse.” Sinclair’s snort at the information was a marvel of indecision. Was he being made fun of? Should he draw and end it? But Marion faced him resolutely as he stood, and talking in the most business like way she backed him out of th® room and to the shop door. Balked omhis oppor- tunity, he retreated stubbornly but with the utmost politeness, and left with a grin, lashing his tail, so te speak. Coming back, Marion tried to hide her uneasiness under even tones te McCloud. “I’m sorry he disturbed you.

I'll content myself with di- gesting my temper.” CHAPTER VII. Smoky Creek Bridge. T WAS not alone that a defiance makes a bad dinner sauce; there was more than this for McCloud to feed on. He was forced to confess to himself as he walked back to the Wickiup that the most annoying fea- ture of the incident was the least im- portant, namely, that his only enemy in the country should be intrusted with commissions from the Stone ranch and be carrying packages for Dicksie Dunning. It was Sinclair’s trick to do things for people, and to make himself so usefu) that they must like first his obligingness and after- ward himself. Sinclair, McCloud knew, was close in many ways to Lance Dunning. It was said to have been his influence that won Dunning’s consent to sell a right of way across the ranch for the new Crawling Stone line. But McCloud felt it useless to disguise the fact to himself that he pow had a second keen interest in the Crawling Stone country—fot alone a dream of a line, but a dream of @ girl. Sitting moodily in his office, with his feet on the desk, a few nights after his encounter with Sin- Clair, h@ recalled her nod as she said good-by. It had seemed the least bit encouraging, and he meditated anew on the only 20 minutes of real pleas- urable excitement he had ever felt in his life, the 20 minutes with Dick- sie Dunning at Smoky Creek. Her intimates, he had heard, called her Dicksie, and he was vaguely envying her intimates when the night dis- patcher, Rooney Lee, opened the door and disturbed his reflections. ‘How is Number ne, Rooney?” called McCloud, as if nothing but the thought of a train-movement ever en- tered his head. Rooney Lee paused. In his hand he held a message, and he faced McCloud with evident uneasiness. “Holy smoke, Mr. McCloud, here’s a ripper! We've lost Smoky Creek bridge.’ “Lost Smoky Creek bridge?’ echoed McCloud rising in amazement. “Burned = _ tcnight. Seventy-seven was flagged by the man at the pump station,” “That’s a tie-up for your life!” ex- claimed McCioud, reaching for the message. How could it catch fire? It is burned up?” “I can’t get anythfhge on that yet: this came fromCanby. I'll have «a good wire in a few minutes and get it all for you.” “Have Phil Hailey and Hyde noti- fied, Rooney, and Reed and _ Brill Young, and get up a train. Smoky Creek bridge! by heavens, we are ripped up the back now! What can we do there, Rooney?” He was talk- ing to himself. .“There isn’t a thing for it on God’s earth but switchbacks and five per cent grades down to the bottom of the creek and cribbing across it till the new line is ready. Wire Callahan and Morris Blood, and get everything you can for me before we start.” Ten hours later and meee A of miles from the mountain division, President Bucks and a companion were riding in the peace of a June morning down the beautiful Mohawk valley with an earlier and illustrious railroad man, William C. Brown. The three men were at breakfast in Brown's car. A message wee prone in for Bucks. He read it and passed it to his companion. Whispering Smith, who sat at Brown’s left hand. hundreds The message was from Callahan with the news of the burning of Smoky Creek bridge. Details were few, be- cause no one on the west end could suggest a plausible cause for the fire. “What do you think of it, Gordon?” demanded Bucks, bluntly. Whispering Smith seemed at al) times hordering on good-ratured sur- prise; and in that normal condition he read Callahan’s message. He was laughing under Buck's scrutiny when he handed the message back. “Why, I don’t Know a thine about ft. not a thing: but taking a long shot and speaking by and far I. should say it looks something like first blood for Sinclair.” he suggested and to change the subject lifted his cup of coffee. “Then it looks like you for the mountains tonight instead of for Weber and Fields’,” retorted Bucks. reachirg for a cigar “Brown, why have you never learned to smoke?” CHAPTER VIII. The Misunderstanding. O ATTEMPT was made to min- N imize the truth that the blow to the division was a staggering one. The loss of eye Creek bridg: put almost 1000 miles of the mountain tvision out of business. Perishable freight and time freight were divert- ed to other lines. ssengers were transferred: lunches were served t them= in the deep valley, and they were supplied by an ingenious adver- tising department with pictures of the historic brid as it had long stood and their addfesses were taken with icture of the ruins artment and the ment united in a tre. about a re- over’s men. were sent for- Dancing’s line- vs eoyy *ey got in , loud } Aen ge days at the creek his nights at Medicine Bend with i: pene pa ’ ee ; ; ie BO steeds PE go OEE * 4 % > = * RAE Fe 4 ; xe? ewe cd _ ’ rit) oer % ijest worked and poorest paid man in the operating department of a railroad —the division superintendent. To these were added personal an- noyances. A trainload of Duck Bar steers, eepese by nee Dunnin from the been caught west of the brid the very night of the fire. They had been loaded at Tipton and shipped to catch a good market, and under extravagant promises from. the livestock agent of a quick run to Chicago. When Lance Dunning learned that his cattle had heen opneny west of th@ break and would have to be unloaded, he swore up a horse in hot haste and started for Medicine “Bend. McCloud, who had not closed his eyes for 60 hours, had just got into Medicine Bend from sony Creek and was sitting at his desk buried in a mass of papers, but he ordered the cattleman admitted. He ws, in fact, eager to meet the manager of the big ranch and the cousin of Dicksie. Lance Dunning stood above six feet in height, and was a handsome men, in spite of the hard lines around his eyes, as he walked in: but neither his manner nor his expression was amiable. “Are you Mr. McCloud? I've been here three times this afternoon to see you,” said he, ignoring McCloud’'s answer and a proffered chair. “This is your office, isn’t it?’ | McCloud, a little surprised, an- swered again and civilly: “It certain- ly is; but I have been at Smoky Creek for two or three days.” “What ‘have you done with my cat- @s run back e: “The Duck Bar train cattle were to Point of Rocks and t unloaded at the yard?” Lance Dunning spoke with increas- ing harshness: “By whose order was that done? Why wasn’t I notified? Have they had feed or water?” “All the stock caught west of the bridge was sent back for feed and water by my orders. It has all been taken care of. You should have been notified, certainly; it ig the business of the stock agent to see to that.? Let me inquire about it while you are here, Mr. Dunning,” suggested Mc- Cloud, ringing for his clerk. Dunning lost no time in expressing himself. “I don’t want my cattle held at Point of Rocks!" he said, angrily. “Your Point of Rocks yards are In- fected. My cattle shouldn’t have been sent there.” “Oh, no! The old yards where they had a touch of fever were burned off the face of the earth a year ago, The new yards are perfectly sanitary. The loss of the bridge has crippled us, you know. Your cattle are being well cared for, Mr. Dunning, and if you doubt it you may go up and give our men any orders you like in the mat- ter at our expense?” “You're taking altogether too much on yourself when you run my stock over the country in this way, e¢x- claimed Dunning, refusing to be pla-| cated. “How am I to get to Point of Rocks—walk there?” “Not at all,” returned McCloud, ring- ing up “his clerk and asking for @ pass, which was brought back in a moment and handed to Dunning. “The cattle, continued McCloud, “can be run down, unloaded, and driven around the break tomorrow—with the loss of only two days. wand in the meantime I lose my market.” “Tt ig too bad, certainly, but I sup- pose ft will be several days before we can get a line across Smoky Creek. “Why weren't the cattle sent through that way yesterday?

As the two men glared at each other Rooney Lee opened the door. His sur- prise at the situation amounted to con- sternation. He shuffled to the corner of the room, and while McCloud and Dunning engaged hotly again, pooner. from the corner, threw @ shot of his own into the quarrel, “On time!” he roared. ; ‘ The angry men turned. “What’s on time?” asked McCloud, curtly. “Number 1, she’s In and changing en- gines.

Canvass by Employes Shows Fewer Untenanted Buildings Than First Estimated. Reduction in the nuniber of vacant buildings in St. Louis, recently esti- mated by the Gould Directory Co. as 11,000, is shown in the returns of a can- vass made by employes of the Laclede Gas Light Co., under the direction of Vice-President C. L. Holman. The canvassers reported a total of 7227 vacant buildings, classified as fol- lows: Dwellings, 1621; flats, 4466; stores, 1140. The canvass was made in a period of between three and four weeks by the meter readers and bill distributers of the Laclede Gas Light Co. The 22 -men made their observations on their Tounds and attending to their regular duties, but there was a specia) fore- man over them to direct the statistics The city was divided into 28 districts, as it is covered by the Laclede Company for business purposes, and the 22 men reported the house number and street of every vacant building they found in St. Louis, covering all sections, east, west, north and south. “We put out our force of men to make this canvass because We could do it at very little extra expense, and we wanted the information,’’ Mr. Hol- man told the Post-Dispatch. ‘Various statements had been made, and some of them published, to the effect that there were 11,000. or 12,000 vacant houses in St. Louis. “If our figures are correct, and I believe they are reasonably so, these estimates were too high. “I have been informed that the nor- mal number of vacant houses in a city the size of St. Louis is from 5000 to 6600.

Two men were seen to throw “‘somc thing’ into Vincent Baporto’s grocery at 1929 Edwards street at 10:30 p. m. Tuesday. An explosion followed and in a few minutes the store was in flames. That was the statement of Joseph Greei. a negro of 5258 Daggett avenue, to spe- Station Wednesday. Laporto was at his home, 5201 Shaw avenue, the police say. The vicinity of the store was in shadow, and Greeu says he could not see the two men al the store door well enough to describe them. He said they went to the side dour, opened it and threw something inside. The explosion occurred as sobdn as tice ing. The building. which is owned by the Empire F wing Co., was damaged about by the fire, and the damage to *' . stock was about the same. The police had not seen Laporto Wednesday .morning, and had _ not learned if he had any enemies or had been threatened in black hand letters or otherwise. His store is on “Dago Hill.”

Diploma. Instead of completing the year at Mc- Kinley High School and preparing a commencement essay as her classmates will do, Miss Julia May Cummings, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. J. Frank Cummings, will become the bride of J. Norvell Taylor Wednesday evening. Mr. and Mrs. Cummings wished their daughter to postpone her marriage, at least until she should have been grad- uated from High School, but Miss Cum- mings and Mr. Taylor, who is connected with a wholesale shoe house, decided the marriage was of much more importance than the commencement and Miss Cum- mings was certain that being a bride would be much nicer than being a ‘“‘sweet girl graduate.’’ So determined were the young people that Mrs. Cummings feared they would elope. To prevent such a possibility, she reluctantly gave her consent to a quiet marriage—before the graduation day. The marriage ceremony formed by the Rev. Mr. Clifton Heights Episcopal Church, at the home of the bride’s parents; 2641 Clifton avenue. Prof. Boeschenz, who played the wedding march when Mr. and Mrs. Cummings were married, will play for the daughter. The only attendants will be Miss Mar- garet Taylor, sister of the bridegroom, who will be maid of honor, and Justin Cummings, the bride’s brother, who will be mest man. After May 1 the young couple expect to be at home at 1046 Forest avenue. NEW ARRIVAL CHRISTENED JOHN |, BEGGS M’CULLOCK United Railway General Manager’s Son Named for North American Company Chairman.

ee D Here’s the mere trouble for the Dem- ocrats. The rate of mortality among negroes is rapidly decreasing, while the birth- rate shows a steady gain. If the pres- ent ratio is maintained, the number of births four years hence will be from 10 to 15 per cent greater than the total deaths. At present the absolute Increase in the negro population—altogether through immigration—averages 3 per cent, against a growth of 15 per cent among whites. The decrease in the death’ rate among the negroes of St. Louis is ane of the most interesting facts revealed by a Study of the city’s vital statistics. To the diminution of the mortality, rather than to a heavier rate of births will be attributed most of the increase in the next few years, granting a peristence of the ratio shown in the last decade. High Mortality in 1901. ’ In- 1891 there was in St. Louis a col- ored population of 29,000. The number of deaths was 999, or 34 in each 1000. The death rate among the whole population the same year was 20."% per 1000. Two years later the death iate among the negroes had fallen to 32 per 1000. From 1901 to 1908, inclusive, the decrease in the mortality among the negroes has been remarkable, both absolutely and relatively. In 1901 there were 38,000 negroes in the city, according to the figures of the Board of Health. The deaths were 1257, or 33.07 per 1000. In the same period the births were 549, or 14.46 per 1000. The discrepancy between births and deaths, therefore, was about 140 per cent, In a population of 40,000—an increase of 5 per cent over 1901—there were 13218 deaths, or 32.95 per 1000 for the year 1902. The births in the same year were 64s— equivalent to 16.20 per 1000. The births were, accordingly, but 49 per cent of the @@aths. Birth Rate Increasing. The ratio of births and deaths has continued changing in about the same proportion until the present, and un- doubtedly will be maintained in the next few years. The figures are elo- quent. In 1904 the deaths were 1225, or 4.17 per 1000, and the births 603, or 14.35 per 1000; in 190, death, 1180—27.44 per 1000, births 599—13.93 per 1000; in 1906, deaths, 10,18, or 2.262 per 1000; births 666, or 14.77 per 1000; in 1907, deaths, 923— 20.62 per 400); births, 734, or 16.31 per 1000, and in 1908, death, 856—18.40 per 1000;

OF THE LID-FIGHTERS’ HOPES Pennsylvania. Professor Declares Whisky Isn’t Good for Snake Bites, Alas! PHILADELPHIA, April 14.—John Marshall, prcfessor of chemistry and toxicology in the University. of Penn- Sylvania, today scoffed at the use of whisky in cases of rattlesnake bite. He said that all the popular methods of treating snake poisoning were in- effective, except‘in so influencing the patient’s: mind as to save him from death by fright. He said: “A blood serum is the only remedy which promises life to the victim of a rattlesnake. This serum is obtained by innoculating a-herse with snake poison. Ifa man-takes-the serum and a hypodermic. syringe::with him into the haunts of rattlesnakes he runs a g00d chance of coming. out alive. But to dose with whisky, as is the invari- able practice, is simply to leave the poison to run its course and gamble with death.” .

Thomas Dooling of 3517 Cherokee struet sought the aid of the Alton police Wednesday morning to find a lost valise which he says contaits negotiable pa- pers worth $60,000. Mr. Dooling, who is 75 years old, started Tuesday morning on a business

Shortly before the train reached the station In Alton Mr. Dooling poked his head from the window to look at the city and his hat blew off. When the train stopped he walked back 200 yeards and found his hat, but his train pulled out and left him. Mr. Dooling says he took his valise with him when he went to look for his hat. He spent an hour in Alton and caught the 10:30 train for 8t. Louis.

DIVORCED, REUNITED BY DREAM SPRINGFEILD, 0O., April 14.—Because of a family dispute Mrs. Margaret Davis, now aged 4, left her husband, Daniel L: Davis, now 5l, just 16 years ago. She got a divorce on grounds of cruelty. In a dream Friday nigbt, Davis says, he had a revelation from heaven that both had erred and reminding him that the sixteenth anniversary of the sepa. ration through law was at hand. Driv- ing to the home of his former wife, he asked her to be his wite again, ‘and in tears she accepted. The couple ‘came here, obtained a license, and in |the presence of only a few friends they spoke again their vews in the same urch where they pledged their troth

ulation was: 1904, 42,000, an increase of 5 per cent; 1906, 43,000, an increase of 2.33 per cent; 1906 and 1907, 45,000, an in- crease of 4.44 per cent; 1908, 46,500, an in- crease of 3.22 per cent. Immigration, coupled with this de- crease in mortality, is expected to raise the number ef negroes in St. Leuis to about 75,000 in the next six years. As the colored voter is usually a Republican, the political side of these statistics wil! add to the worries of the Democrats. Fewer Babies Last Year. Statistics for the fiscal year just closed show an unfavorable comparison of the birth rate for the entire city with that of the previous year. While the number of births recorded for 1908-9 is four less than for 1907-8, the number of deaths is 108 less. The number of births was: 1907-8, 10,008; 1908-9, 9999. The number of deaths was: For 1907-8, 13,149; for 1908-9, 18,041. Health Department officials say con- tagious diseases have caused many deaths in the last few months. The de- crease in birth reports, they say, may be the fault of physicians and nurses, who grow careless about making these returns unless frequently reminded of the law requiring them to do so.

'N. Broadway, Chas Steinberg, Mgr. | (yy IT DRAGS YOU SLOWLY DOWN It’s hard to keep an even temper with a dull pain nagging all day at your back; in fact, kidney troubles are at the bottom of very much of the nervousness and irritability that are so common today. . You wonder why you are short and cross, can’t kee your mind on one thing, are thelined to worry over trifles, and subject to fits of “blues” and despondency. Partly it is due to that pain in your back, partly to the irritating effect of uric acid on your brain and nerves. Uric acid is a poison that is always forming in the body, and it is the duty a the kidneys to filter it out of the blood and pass it off, dissolved, in the urine. Healthy kidneys do this work thoroughly and well, but weak or sick kidneys get behind, and the waste matter collects here and there in the muscles, joints and nerve cen- ters. Headache, dizzy spells, rheuma: tism, neuralgia, blurry spots before the eyes, nervousness and heart trou- ble, are signs of uric poisoning. So do not wonder at your condition. And if your back aches continually, or you are taken with sharp cricks and stitches of pain when you stoop, turn or try to lift, it is sure that your kid- néys are out of order and need prompt attention, for sick kidne cannot right themselves without .

of the early games this season. Hedges’ new grandstand is the highest one in the country and no ballplayer ever faced the same conditions as will prevail! at Sportsman’s Park. A line drive to the outfield will be hard to judge because the ball may never show against the sky with the big stand towering in the background. For that reason it wi!) not be surprising to see the outfielders make mistakes until they have trained their eyes to see the ball in the darkness. Right and center fields will now face the sun, too, where left field was the only one that was troubled that way before. Late in the afternoon, almost all of the infield will be in the shade because of the high grandstand. Errors Expected Today, Yesterday afternoon the Brewns’ out- fielders worked for nearly an hour catching line drives and high fly balis against the sun. The werk hardly sat- isfied Manager McAleer and he fears there may be mistakes made in many of the early games because of the new conditions. He had Stene in left field disappointed the crowd that had come out expecting to see a promising can- didate for the heavyweight title. Kaufmann, while he made a total wreca of the Italian, looked too slow. Physically he is a match for any man, but he doesn’t think quickly enough. He hasn’t the head that makes a cham- pion... He is a clean hitter. His firsts land like sledge hammers. He has en- durance and size and gameness. In fact, he shows everything except the indefinable something recognized in an instant as ‘“‘class.”” Some of his maneu- vres were clumsy. A champion: must never be clumsy. In the early rounds Kaufmann landed heavy punches and Ross pulled his head down behind his sheulders, show- —Kaufmann doing the slugging and Ross showing how much he could take. This Italian has Battling Nelson run- ning back in the dust when it comes to eating it up. After being battered to a pulp he gathered strength for a wild swing that staggered Kaufmann, and for an instant théy stood reeling face to face. Then Kaufmann made a fresh start and ‘Ross, his last bolt shot, clung desperately to his arms in one long clinch. “I’m glad it went to ten,” said De- laney. “It was a goed’ workout for Al.” It may have been, but the fight. fol- lowers can’t forget that Langford

stopped Ross in half the distance.

RUBE WADDELL WILL CUT UP WEDDING CAKE Harry Seeback, world’s champion bag puncher, and Henry Clark, a St. Louis glove expert, may meet before the close of the week in a contest for the cham- pionship. The men held a conference yesterday to agree on terms, but failed to reach an agreement as each wanted to exhibit on his own apparatus. It is expected that they will try to find some way out of the deadlock to- day. Seeback is a St. Louis athlete and has been all around the world. He will be married on the stage of the Gayety Theater tonight to Miss Har- riet Doebler. Justice Moore will perform the ceremony and Rube Waddell has been secured to cut up the wedding cake. —_——_——_o-—————- NEW YORK’S OPENING IS PREVENTED BY DOWNPOUR NEW YORK, April 14—The opening of the National League season at the Polo Grounds today was postponed to | the disappointment of many thousands of fans who had hoped to witness the playing of the New Yerk-Brooklyn ame.

CHICAGO, April 14.—With his Cardi- nals in the best possible condition and eager to begin the National League race, Roger Bresnahan, the new mana- ger for the St. Louis Club, was happy today as hé prepared his boys to meet the Chicago Cubs, champions of the world, in the opening: game of the sea- gon. The Cardinals had a spirit of con- fidence that they could do battle with the best of them and the Chicago play- ers and fans no longer feel the assur- ance that when St. Louis is billed at Murphy's park it means an easy vic- tory for the Cubs. The start of the season means every- thing. to Bresnahan, for should he be able to break even in the games from now until April 22, when the Cardinals are billed for the opening game on their own grounds, he knows he will have won the hearts of all the St. Louis fans. But it is a difficult task, because he must oppose the strongest teams of the National League right at the start, with a team that does not class, man for man, with the big fellows. How- eyer, Roger has the Cardinals playing & game of ball that they have never known before, and by aggressive work he hopes to make a showing against the strongest teams at the start. Johnny Lush has been picked as the pitcher for the Cardinals today, and big Jeff Overall will do the flinging for the Cubs. Lush has shown great form in the exhibition games and has been resting since last Saturday, when he beat the Louisville club, so he is in the best possible trim for the battle today. | ere pga —_—=- frequently cries ball,” during the season; but he wastes his breath, in many cases. Some teams can't be expected to do the impossible. - the world’s wrestling title at Chicago against Mahmout, the Turk, tonight. But somehow Frank, like other of our cham- pions in the professional world, seems absolutely devoid of sporting spjrit, when it comes to the making of conditions for matches. It is haggle and argue and prate over trifles which, to champions, ought to be inconsiderable. Gotch, it is reported, is objecting to the fact that Mahmout has been in the habit of wrestling in his hare feet. It is a national custom aud instead of working a hardchip,on wotch, should be of some advantage to him, since his strong point is the toe hold. Mahmout is a real sportsman. He never has raised a kick at anything; he has been insufferably used by the wrestlers of this country, the so-called punishers of the country who have gouged thumbs into his eyes, pulled his hair, bent his fingers backw.urd to the breaking point and rubbed his nose up- wards until his eyeballs almost popped out. This mild-mannered man. has never even raised a sweat at all the indignities to which he has been subjected, but has gone along throwing the opposition in spite of their pettinesses, and dis- playing a broadness of character that should make American wrestlers ashamed of themselves—as if such a thing were possible! Now comes Gotch, our best, admitted to have an advantage over the Turk in weight and strength a. the very outset, and acts the petty part. Just a trifle small, one wou@l think. Gotch used Hackenschmiadt roughly. He must be excused, in that case, be- cause Hackenschmidt was Ligger, strong- er and much more to be feared than Mahmout. He was an unknown to Gotch, who had to employ every art or trick of head and ‘and to win. But the poor, lonely, bovine-eyed Mo- hammed@en is poor game for Gotch to take advantage of. But then wrestlers must be wrestlers. RANK GOYCH is a_e splendid athlete and his American friends “play wish him well in his match for Wrestle sT. . Louis POs] “DIS!

Terrible Turk Would in Bare Feet

CHICAGO, April 14.—Tonight’s wrest- ling match between Frank Gotch of Humboldt, Io., and Yussiff Mahmout of Bulgaria promises to be a great strug- gle. Some persons even believe Gotch will have more trouble with Mahmout than he had in defeating George Hack- epechmidt here a year ago. The husky Bulgarian has shown remarkable abil- the Turk. Gotch ‘is close to six feet tall and Mahmout is about five, feet 8 inches in height. ity in all of his matches in this coun- try and he has not lost a single fall. He nas failed to throw certain men in ‘imited handicap bouts, but has never been pinned to the mat for a fall. In Gotch the Bulgarian will meet a y= 4 a ed

past master in the strategy of the mat game. Every- trick and artifice of wrestling are known to him. The two rivals are practically evenly matched in weight, but Gotch has a decided advantage in height and that counts for much in a wrestling match. Gotch is expected to weigh more than Frank Gotch sprang a surprise last night that may cause trouble before the men get into the ring. Mahmout has been in the habit of wrestling in his hare feet, but Gotch insists that he wear shoes. tonight. Gotch says the rules clearly provide that all wrest- lers wear gymnasium shoes. The men will hold a conference with Referce Smith today and decide what shall. be done about the matter.

Glidden Pathfinder Starts. With an answering roar of exhaust that almost drowned the report of the cannon fired by Mayor Breitmeyer of Detroit, the big E. M. F. ‘30’ pathfind- er for the 1909 Glidden tour started on its strenuous trip to Denver and back, Monday morning. In the car were Of- ficial Pathfinder Dai H. Lewis, who has performed the same task for every previous A. A. A. tour that ever was. He was accompanied by Nathan Lazar- nick, photographer; E. Le Roy Pelle- tler of the E. M. F. Co., and a news- paper man. George Meifnizinger occupied the driver's seat, making a party of five. “Detroit folks certainly do things up in royal style,”’ said Pathfinder Lewis

when he saw the crowd of motorists Who had assembled to wish the party zodspeed and give the car ia rousing send-off. Prominent in the crowd was Mayor Breitmeyer, who had come to fire the starting gun, and every member of the Detroit Auto Dealers’ Association was present to lend a hearty handshake. It was this latter that most impressed Dai Lewis—the evidence of good feel- ing among the rival sellers and makers of automobiles. President Lane of the D, A. D. A. handed a flag to Lewis to present to the Denver Automobile Club with the respects of the Detroit Association. ‘Tell them we will come and get it in July,” said Lane.

Net increase Some idea of the vastness of the Pennsyl- vania Railroad system, and its vital rela- tionship to the territory which its lines tra- verse, may be gathered from figures in the annual ‘‘Record of Transportation Lines,’’ is- sued today by the Maintenance of Way De- partment of the system. This pamphlet shows that on Dec. 31, 1 the Pennsyl- vania Rallroad controlled a total of 11,235.- 81 miles of line and 23,977.41 miles of tracks. and its subsidiaries, and the Kanawha the Toledo & io Central & Michigan Railroad companies. February and the eight months of 1908-9 show conditions with those roads in the age gregate not so satisfactory as the results in the past few months. would have seemed to indicate. The Hocking Valley gross in February was $351,929, an increase of $3016, or 0.8 per cent over last year, but expenses decreased 6.1 per cent. and net increased 12.9 per cent. The Toledo & Ohlo Contra showed net of $27,544, a@ decrease of $54.5 or 66.5 per cent. The Kanawha & Michigan gross was §128.261. an increase of 6.3 r cent, which was offset by an increase of 7 per cent in expenses, and consequently net decreased 5.6 per cent from February, 1908. >

Returns received Wednesday from the Republican primary election for the nomination of three circult judges in the Third [linois Judicial Circuit indi- cated the choice of Louis Bernreuter of Nashville, William E. Hadley of Collins- ville and George A. Crow of East St. Louis. John BE. Hillskotter of Edwardsvilie, tow Judge of the Madison County Court, apparently ran fourth. Other candidates were J. M. Freels of East St. Louis, J. W. Fritz of Greenville, and Thomas R. Mould of Belleville. The district embraced by the primary includes St. Clair, Madison, Bond, Washington, Randolph and Monroe counties. The vote was light, the tota] of the highest candidate, Bernreuter, being, from the incomplete returns, 4682. Hadley, by the same returns, got 4568, Crow 430, and Hillskotter 3816. There was no contest for the Demo- cratic nomination, Benjamin W. Pope of Duquoin being the only candidate on that ticket. The next election. in East St. Louis will be held Saturday, when a presi- dent and six members of the Board of Education will be elected, It is expect. ed that the administration ticket will be nominated Wednesday night. W. A. Moody will probably be nominated for president of the board. He formerly held that office preceding the term of J. M. Chamberlain. No cther ticket has yet been nominated. George A. Crow received the highest vote in the Republican primary in St. Clair County. His vete was se. The twe who ran next to Crow in 8t. Clair County were Louis Bernreuter, with 22% votes, and William E.
