It is the general belief that the safe- crackers have taken refuge in the Big Muddy Bottoms, south of Woodlawn, where there is much wooded country, and it is difficult for pursuers to make their way. The Bank of Woodlawn is locatedina frame building, which was slightly dam- aged by the explosion. The safe was old-fashioned and was blown to pieces. ——_o@———- WELLSVILLE (M0.)

Two of them, who acted as pickets. captured the night marshal, Bud White. as he ran toward the Postoffice after the nitroglycerin had been exploded and held him until the other two came from the Postoffice. Then they released -him and all four climbed into fe buggy and drove away. Postmaster Thomas Sharp says he saw several strangers acting suspiciously in town yesterday and for fear of a rob- bery took most of the money and stamps from his safe and carried them home with him.

Republican Leaders of Spring- field, Mo., Sign Note to Protect Bondsmen. CALLS IT A _ MISTAKE

Democratic Prosecuting Attor- ney Demands Grand Jury Investigation.

Special to the Post-Dispazch. SPRINGFIELD, Mo., April 15.—Follow- ing the discovery of a shortage of $2200 in the office of the Criminal] Court Clerk of Greene County, Ben R. Holmes has resigned from the office and will turn over the affairs to his successor tomor- row morning. George Campbell, chief deputy clerk, has been appointed to suc- ceed Holmes by Gov. Hadley. Holmes resigned in the shadow of a grand jury investigation which has been demanded by Prosecuting Attorney West. An anonymous letter sent to the pros- ecutor some time ago was the first in- timation received by his office that there-was mismanagement on the part of Holmes. Prosecutor West is one of two Demo- cratic office holders in the county and his efforts to trace the shortage were frequently impeded. His application for a grand jury was refused and he has been made the subject of bitter at- tacks by Republican newspapers here. Bondsmen Are Protected. Holmes’ bondsmen held a conference with the Republican county organiza- tion and made good the amount al- leged to be due the county. Republi- can leaders signed a note which is held in escrow to guarantee that the bonds- men would lose nothing. In a statement made today, Holmes declares that he resigned to defeat the efforts of those who would remove him from office. Every penny, he says, has been restored to the County. He at- tributes his shortage to his own care- lessness. Prosecutor West said the action of ‘Holmes in resigning from office would have no effect upon his applictaion for a grand jury, and that the County Clerk’s office will be investigated thor- oughly. Would Examine All Records. Holmes takes the stand that as ne has made good any possible shortage, he cannot be prosecuted. Mr. West to- day notified those who are opposing him in his efforts to get’a grand jury that unless one is called he will have a commission appointed to examine every record in the Courthouse at his own expense. Holmes has been in office two years, and has been prominent in Republican politics for 15 years. He announced to- day he intended to go to Colorado. A Democrat holding an office in Greene County was looked upon as a political impossibility until the election of Mr. West last fall. He made his campaign on alleged mismanagement in the coun- ty offices. -

Missouri Congregational women pledged themselves at the a.nual meet- ing of the Women’s woard of Missions of the Interior, at Pilgrim Congregation- al Church, to raics> $7000 this year for missionary werk. Miss Alice Litton, one of the vice-presidents chosen for the year, suggested that this ought to be easy, as there are in Missouri 6992 Congregation | women. In about ten minutes during the session $90 was raised. Mrs. W. R. Chivvis of St. Louis was chosen president for the year. Miss Grace Wyckoff, a missionary in China, made an address, paying special at- tention to the work in Foo Chow and Hongkong. “The Wide Horizon” was the subject of a talk by Miss Flora Starr of Chi- cago.

ROOSEVELT AND PARTY DEBARK AT ARABIAN POT Hunters Go Ashore at Aden to Kiil Native Birds. ADEN, Arabia, April 15.—The steamer Admiral, with Theodore Roosevelt and the members of his party on board, stopped here this morning for a short stay. All on board are well. Several members of the party are planning to come ashore here on a shooting expedition to obtain specimens of the local birds, as they have done at several other ports touched on the way out.

The run down the Red Sea from Suez was fairly cool, but yesterday and to- day the weather was hot, with a bril- liant sun and @ smooth sea. Frederick C. Selous, author and big game hunter, has accompanied the Roosevelt party from Naples. Mr. Roosevelt has spent several hours every day listening to recitals of Mr. Selous’ experiences on his African hunting trip. Mr. Selous has been invited by Mr. Roosevelt to join the party for two weeks’ shooting, and he probably will accept. —_——_ CHILDREN ASK TEDDY 10 RETURN Des Moines Pupils Petition Hunter to Spare the Lions.

Hoiliday as receiver, by three cred- itors—Edward Quinn of Turton. 8. D.; James a, Marley of Paris, Il., and i. E. Durrett of Paducah, Ky.—whose Claims aggregate $4067.45. As a ground for the bankruptey, it is Stated that the company, while insolv- ent, paid money to John W. Donnell and paid $300 to Shepard Evans, an attor- ney.

ST eaten ine LOAF FOR BREAD Flour prices in St. Louis are going up 40 and 50 cents a clip and city salesmen for mills and mill agents report a wide. spread uneasiness among 8t. Louis bak- ers, who already have begun to reduce the size of their loaves and are talking of advancing to 6 cents a loaf. Local mills raised the price §© cents Wednesday and first patent flour is selling for $6.75 and $7 a barrel. Re- ports from Columbus, O., regarding the situation in that State, say similar con- ditions prevail there. The same is true, according to St. Louls millers, all over this section of the country. In a press dispatch from Columbus, 0., it was said Thursday that flour was expected to go to 99 a barrel before the end of the year—that is, before the

Bakers who did not have big supplies of flour on hand are buring barely enough to supply their trade, jobbers and millers report, and none is buying any flour for future use. WILL PAY GOVERNMENT'S RENT Business Men Are Anxious to Keep Testing Plant Here. To keep the Government testing plant for structural material from being moved from St. Leouls, the Business Men’s League proposes to pay the rental of the premises, $1200 a year, news hav- ing been received from Washington that the Government declines to pay it. For several years the plant has been in Forest Park. Now the site has been returned to the city and new quarters must be obtained. Arrange- ments are being made by the Business Men’s League to procure for the pur- pose the old power house at Thirteenth and Locust streets.

Many exceptions are made to Judge Hart's charge to the jury and to the action of the court in not entering a mistrial March 19, when a partial report was received from the jury. Exception is taken also to the ruling by the Court in excluding certain por- tions of the Robin Cooper evidence, intended to throw light on the mental condition of his father as well as him- Self; to the Court's allowing the State to ask Robin Cooper if he knew. any reason why certain State witnesses had perjured themselves; because the Court did not admit all the Carmack letters Written in Washington in 194 to Col, Cooper, also because all the News- Scimitar’s editorial of March 15, 1908, Wes not admitted.

SEEK TATTOOED CROSS ON MAN, FIND A GALLERY ——

Police Discover That Charles D. Sullivan Is Thoroughly Illustrated. —— HE WAS IN THE NAVY

There He Accumulated Pic- tures of Anchors, Hearts and Monuments. Charles D. Sullivan, who was arrest- ed in St. Louis by Secret Service Oper- ator McHugh last Saturday on charges of impersonating a secret service opera- tor, is the most thoroughly and pic- turesquely tattooed man ever examined by the local Bertillon experts. This fact and the further fact that he is much wanted in Chicago, where there are 20 cases against him, developed Thursday. The loca] secret service office received a wire from the Chicago Bureau request- ing that Sullivan be examined to ascer- tain if there is a ‘arge crucifix tattooed on the center of his chest. Assistant Superintendent John Coak- ley of the Bertillon service made the and discovered the cruci- also an amazing examination fix. He discovered inumber of tattoo pictures, covering prac- tically the entire body. On Sullivan’s right wrist, his cuff, is a woman’s head. On his back is a sailor on a monument, the latter being inscribed: “In Memory of Father and Brother.’ Other tattooes include a bird with an Olive branch, three women in tights, one of them on a tightrope, a dagger piercing a heart, a horseshoe with whips, inscribed ‘‘Good Luck;’’ a man’s head, an anchor, a cross, a heart and a wreath. Says He Fought With Schley. Sullivan, who is 40 years old, says he used to serve in the United States Navy and fought with Schley at Santiago. He says he was a jockey also and fol- lowed the racing circuit with the Whit- ney stable of New York. A letter from Capt. Thomas I. Porter, head of the Secret Service Bureau in Chicago, was reecived Thursday at the local bureau. Capt. Porter writes that the Chicago police have about twenty cases against Sullivan, who went under the name of O’Connor in that city. Sullivan is alleged to have met, wooed and won a Chicago widow, Mrs. Lysell, not long ago, representing himself as a secret service man. He married the widow, according to Capt. Porter, and deserted her a few days later, taking $75 in cash and $400 worth of jewelry. The jewelry is described as follows: “jold watch and chain, $110; diamond stud, $35; lady's ring, $200; wedding ring, $25: gold eyeglasses, $26. Sullivan, or O'Connor, also is said to have taken his new wife’s valise, which she values at $3. Sullivan is alleged to have told: Mrs Lysell that he carried a marvelous re- volver, which, merely pressing the han- dle, would shoot like a Gatling gun, firing thousands of bullets. hidden by Asked for Speedy Trial. Another story with which Capt. Por- ter says he sought to tmpress his im- portance upon the widow he was wooing was to the effect that he had the privi- lege of a private wire, so that he could telephone from any point in the United States. After he left his wife he tele- phoned to her, stating that he was in Leavenworth, Kan. When arrested here Sullivan requested a speedy trial, so that if convicted he could begin serving his time at once, Local secret service mén are of the opinion that Sullivan hoped in this way to avoid being taken back to Chicago. District Attorney Blodgett said Thurs- day that in all probability Sullivan would be turned over to the Chicago secret service men, the cases against him there being stronger than the one in St. Louis. Sullivan’s arrest was brought about with the assistance of Mrs. Maude An- thony, a manicure in the Wright Build- ing, whom he had met at 3947 McPher- son avenye, where both were boarding.

STRAIGHT 3 PER CENT

Texan Says He Does Not Want to Tax Prosperity, but Prosperous.

WASHINGTON, April 15.—Immediate- ly after the Senate convened today, Sen- ator Bailey introduced an income tax amendment to the tariff bill, agreed upon by the Democratic senators. It provides for a straight tax of 3 per cent on all incomes above $5000 a year. It exempts all incomes from Federal, State, county and municipal securities, salaries of all State officers and in- comes of corporations below $5000. The former law on this subject provided for a tax of 2 per cent on incomes of $4000 and upward. Mr. Bailey does not attempt to avoid the constitutional questions and in ef- fect challenges them. Exempts Public Bonds, “T have responded to the unanimous decision of the Supreme Court of the United States, that _— has no power to levy an incc }: tax on State, county and municipal securities, and I have specifically exempted incomes de- rived from that source,” said Mr. Bal- ley. “I regard it as unfortunate that they were previously included in the law. IL thought it plain that the Court would say, and I think it equally plain that the Court ought to have decided, that that part of the law was not con- stitutional.”’ In other respects, he said, his amend- ment still challenges that decision of the Supreme Court. He was satisfied his amendment was not in contraven- tion of the constitution and he bélieved a majority of the Court erred in that decision. “And, remembering that that decision was by a divided Court, and that it over- ruled the decision of one hundred years,”’ he added, “I do not think it improper for the American Congress to consider the question of its reconsideration by the Supreme Court.” Wants to Tax Prosperous, Mr. Bailey said he did not introduce his amendment because he desired to tax prosperity, but because he preferred “to tax the incomes of prosperous peo- ple rather than to place it upon the backs and upon the appetites of peo- ple who at best are doing none too well.”’ “Can the Senator advise the Senate what amount his income tax amend- ment would raise?” asked Mr. Aldrich. ‘‘No more,’’ replied Mr. Bailey, ‘‘than the Senator can teil the amount his tar- iff bill will raise.” Mr. Aldrich replied that he would do that later. Mr. Bailey added that his amendment would raise from $60,000,000 to $80,000,000 revenue annually and he hoped there would be a provision in the bill to re- duce the customs revenues an equal amount.

The two men escaped while at the task of unloading a car of cinders on the railroad track near the jail. The jailer left them temporarily in charge of Road Overseer Jake Fink and the men slipped their shackles and ran. Parrott was in jail for a year, begin- ning last November, on a common as- sault charge. Brown was committed March 17 for carrying concealed weap- ons.

ieee aE MESSAC ‘oe INCLUDES URE BILLFOR TA SLAIN President Telts Cl ells Congress That Philippine Laws Require Revising. - MAKES RULES SIMPLE Measure Was Drawn by Board of Experts After Meetings in Manila, By Wire From the Washingten Be- reau of the Post-Dispatch. WASHINGTON, April 15.—Although President Taft is today at New Haven, Conn., attending a meeting of the Yale corporation, he sent a special message to Congress, accompanying a bill revis- ing the tariff in the Philippine Islands. The bill, he says, is made necessary by the proposition in the Payne tariff bill to establish free trade with the Philippines, The message is as follows: To the Senate and House of ‘Rep resentatives: I transmit herewith a communica tion from the Secretary of War in- closing one from the Chief of the Bureau of Insular Affairs, in which is transmittted a proposed tariff re- vision law for the Philippine Islands, This measure revises ‘the present Philippine tariff, simplifies it and makes it. conform as nearly as possi- ble to the regulations of the customs laws of the United States, especially with respect to packing and pack- ages. The present Philippine regu- lations have been cumbersome and difficult for American merchants and exporters to comply with. Its purpose is to meet the new conditions that will arise under the section of the pending United States tariff bill which provides with cer- tain limitations, for free trade be- tween the United States and the is- lands. It is drawn with a view to preserving to the islands as much customs revenue as possible and to protect In a reasonable measure those industries which now: exist in the islands. The bill now transmitted has been drawn by a board of tariff experts, of which thé..Iugural Collector of Customs, Col. George R. Colton, was the president. The Board held a great many open meetings in Ma- nila and conferred fully with repre- sentatives of all business interests in the Philippine Islands. It is of great importansce to the welfare of the islands that the bill should be passed at the same time with the pending Payne bill, with special ref- erence to the provisions of which it was prepared. I respectfully recommend that this bill be enacted at the present session of Congress as one incidental to and required by the passage of the Payne bill.' WILLIAM H. TAFT. The White House, April 14, 1909. The message was accompanied by let- ters from Secretary of War Dickinson and Gen. Edwards, Chief of the Bureau of Insular Affairs, urging the passage of the bill. Generally speaking, the bill submitted by the President makes a slight increase in the rates of duty now provided in the Philippine tariff, but its framers gay its tendency is to insure as far.as practi- cable the benefit of the Philippine mar- ket for American manufactures and products. The bill makes some additions to the free list. There will be an ' in internal revenue duties by which it is hoped to make up the loss which the Philippine Islands will suffer by the operations of the free trade provisions in the pending Payne tariff b.1l.

ST. LOVIS POST-DISPATCH THURSDAY EVENING, APRIL 15, 1909. ST. Louis. POST-pISI 3 AN PLAYS HIDE AND SEEK WITH BANKER WHOSE WIFE HE RESCUED tis B. Clark Wants to Reward ames Joyce for Stopping Run- away, and Latter Hides. 7 ICAGO, April 15.—Fireman James Ai Joyce is in hiding. Louis B. Clarke, @ banker, is looking for him with what @ calls a “search warrant.” @ situation is due to a herolc act the fireman, which called forth the dits of thousands in the loop dis- t, who saw him stop a runaway horse at the immincnat risk of his life, saying two women who seemed doomed to death or injury. One was the wife of Mr. Clarke, and it is the modesty the fireman in secluding himself that aroused the financier’s determina- t to find him, “even if it necessi- tates a trip with a search warrant.” Joyce was sitting with a newspaper and a pipe in front of hfs quarters when the runaway, dragging a light cab, dashed by. In a flash pipe dropped, paper hurel aside, and his chair overturned behind him, Fireman Joyce made his leap. In the next few minutes crowds witnessed a spectacular rescue. Clutching at the horse’s bridle, Joyce Was dragged over the pavement for more than a block before he stopped the animal. Cut and bruised, he disen- tangied himself from the horse's hoofs, saw to it that the women were taken care of and then hastened back to his company’s quarters and hid himself. LEGISLATORS ARE OVERLOOKED ~ IN DISTRIBUTION OF PASSES Several Announce Hedges and Robi- son Skipped Them in Disburs- ing Baseball Favors. Special to the Post- Dispatch. JEFFERSON CITY, April 15. —Repre- sentative Walton (Dem., Howard Coun- ty) asked that a correction to the report that every member of the House of Rep- resentatives had received annual passes for the St. Louis baseball Dares, be pub- lished. “I know I was left out,” Walton de- clared today. ‘So was Messrs. Hawkins, Hardesty and Pemberton. On the other hand, I know a great many others got passes. Hull of Platte received @ pass, but sent it back with thanks. ‘4 should have done the same thing. In my county Sunday basegall playing is not at all popular. I would vote for a law to suppress it. I have no idea what has become of the basevall bill that was introduced here.”’ Representative Pemberton said: ‘It may be that mine was lost in the mail. However, do not quote me wong saying that I am complaining a bit.’ Senator Prendergast said: “I received an annual pass from Col. Hedges, but none from Mr. Robison. The Cardinals’ management did not send any last year, either, if I remember correctly.”’ I: a letter to a private secretary of one of the members, Col. Hedges said: “Tt shall be my aim this year, as in the past, to take care of all senators and representatives.” _- -—- Busy Bee Bargain Day Tomorrow.

LEADS SCOTT FORCES Anti-Administration Wing Will Support Mrs. William Cum- mings Story. teen By Wire From the Washington Burenu of the Post-Dispatch. WASHINGTON, April 15.—With the arrival today of Mrs. Donald McLean, retiring president-general of the Daugh- ters of the American Revolution, and Mrs. William Cummings Story of New York, anti-administration candidate to succeed Mrs. McLean, the big struggle opens for the highest social position a woman can Obtain in the United States outside the White House. Mrs. McLecan’s candidate for the pres- idency, Mrs. Matthew T. scott, arrived yesterday from her home in Blooming- ton, Ill., and has opened headquarters. The contest for the presidency is be- tween the administration forces led by Mrs. McLean and Mrs. Scott, and the anti-adiministration forces, led by Mrs. Story. The national congress of the Daughters will convene Monday. Because Mrs. Story is championed by Mrs. Charles W. Fairbanks, who fig- ures as the opponent of Mrs. McLean, she therefore falls heir to the entire sentiment of the Mrs. Daniel Manning faction, which so long fought the pres- ent president-general. Faces a Powerful Rival. Mrs. Story also faces a powerful rival in Mrs. Scott, who, aside from the acministration’s support, has so many personal friends in both factions that it was believed she would be. elected unanimously. Her wealth and position, her connection with Mrs, Adlai Steven- son, the former head of the Daughters, as well as her own recerd go to make her an opponent to be feared. But the great event of the congress of this year is not its political signifi- cance so much as the completion of Continental Hall, the Daughters’ Memo- rial building, which is far under way. The building, of white stone, is 168 feet deep by 222 feet wide. The interior decoration is extremely ornate. Laurel wreaths cross the flat pillars of the en- trance, on the left of which is the mu- seum for historic relics. To this the New York City Chapter gave $5000 in celebration of Mrs. McLean’s election to the presidency-general. The bronze tablet presented by the French Government during the first year of her rule is placed on one side of the hall. On the right is the library. The auditorium, which fills the rest of the first floor, is 79 feet by 130 feet. There are two large galleries and one smaller. Here as elsewhere the scheme is entirely in white. The seating ca- pacity is 1950. On the second floor is a ballroom in which Mrs. McLean will hold a recep- tion on the afternoon of April 19, which is .ontinental Hall Day. This room is decorated in white enamel with a Colo- nial fireplace. Guests will be ushered up one of the two wide staircases and down the other. One of the staircases, which are of cast iron, enamelled, was the gift of the Fort Greene Chapter of Brook- lyn. Gov. Fort to Open State Room. Gov. Fort of New Jersey will for- mally open the New Jersey State room, which boasts a historic wainscoting, the wood being taken from the old battle- ship Augusta, which was raised where she was sunk, off the Jersey coast. At the southeast corner “of the second floor is the President-General’s room. which Mrs. McLean will occupy for four days before the end of her term. This was furnished by an individual gife of $500 from Mrs. James H. Aldrich of the New York City Chapter. On the third floor of the building are the kitchens and dining rooms. The outer terrace is already completed, so that the Daughters may drive to the steps where the porte cochere will be placed. The work rushed through on _ the building since the last congress, a year ago, was made possible by the $200,000 loan which Mrs. McLean effected and passed amid much dissent. This may be paid back in sums as small as $5000. This loan has not yet ben exhausted and will only be drawn out to complete contracts. Mrs. McLean’s chief desire is to see Mrs. Scott in the chair, be- cause she believes a woman accustomed to handling large affairs and thoroughly acquainted with business methods is best suited to manage the Daughters’ financial problem. The opening ceremonies will be im- pressive. Mrs. McLean's address will be responded to by Vive-President Sher- man. Former Gov. Warfield of Mary- land wil Ibe present, as well as Senator Daniels of Virginia. Former President Roosevelt’ sent | “three cheers’’ to Mrs. McLean and ex- pressed his regrets that he would be en route to Africa when thé congress opened. President Taft will receive the Daugh- ters at the White House on Thursday. Sell Apple Trees for Timber. From the Nashville American, The great demand for apple wood, for the manufacture of saw handles has been appreciated by the large number of farmers who have lost their or- chards through the ravages of the San Jose scale. Buyers have been going through New Jersey making tempting offers for the timber. In some cases farmers have found it more profitable to cut down old trees that are not prolific rather then depend on an uncertain crop in the future, Several car loads of butts have been shipped in the last CARNIVAL COURT John A. Austin intended to elope with From Srowth continue to startle the world, London has stopped growing. Within the last seven years the annual birth rate has dropped 8 per cent, the num- il of children in school ‘has declined about 2 per cent and the number of paupers in the city has increased 15 per cent. In the meantime the assessed valuation has advanced only 17 per cent, while the debt has increased 110 per cent. Scramble for Jobs. The superintendent of the Carlyle Johnson Manufacturing Co., of Man- chester, advertised, one day only, for 2 men to whitwash the inside walls of the new factory, says the New Haven, Evidence of Race Suicide. the world’s Work. While the statistics of New York’s intendent threw ® whitwash scrambled for them. The % that eb ISSUES WARRANT FOR THE MAVOR\¢¢ Kreismann Will Be Arraigned BeforeKnights of Columbus Justice Bar.

I have not made a sin- gle failure: in over five hundred consecutive cases, This record I am proud of. My pa- tients are astonished at it, because 8o many extremely bad cases come to me after they had tried every known remedy and many other physicians without obtaining a@ cure, and many times without even getting tem- porary relief. My treatment is mild and rellable. I apply it and treat every patient personally, which largely accounts for my universal success in the cure of Piles, Fis- tula and Fissure, and all diseases of the rectum. Strong Evidence of Success The fact that in so many instances I treat pig three and as many as four members in a single family is itself a strong recommen- dation. Common sense tells you that this would not be so unless I had given entire Satisfaction in every case. When afflicted, the first Mie you want to know is, can you be cure Phe next is, What will it cost? Is the ela painful ’ How long will it take to effect a cure? Will the cure be permanent? When do you y? ete. For answers to those questions, refer you to my former patients. Ca)) and see them. or write to them; they wil! tell you; then come to me and I will telj you. Can you ask anything fairer, with reference to "payment. than to pay me after you are cured? You can deposit the fee n in the bank, payable to me we ee upo an you are Only after you are cured, the judge, Ladies I have under treatment all the time al- most as many ladies as gentiemen. Those of you who are afflicted should not go on suffering, but come and be cured. Send free book for ladies.

POST-DISPATC LEAGUE GAMES INTEREST Gina Feminine Students Turn Out Loyally and Cheer for Their Tea™s. CLUBS ARE —_—- ——— ore FORMED Faculties and Parents Pleased at Ability Shown by Boy Captains.

The girl students at the public schools are beginning to take as much interest as the boys in the games of the Post- Public School Baseball League. At all of the games they have turned aut loyally and their cheering for the school team vias done much to keep up the enthusiasm of the play- ers. At two of the schools—the Clark and Ashland—the girls have formed clubs. The object of the clubs is to keep up and increase the schoo! spirit among all the students. At several of the schools enthusiastic supporters of the teams go among all the students at the recess times and urge their attendance at the games. The forming of the Captains’ Associa- tion of the Post-Dispatch League this year has aroused much interest among the faculties of the schools and the parents of the players. The ability of the boy captains to govern the league and their fairness in disputes gives proof that the system is developing in thm mature ideas of organization and management. The Post-Dispatch league has received ents who approve of the new and who point out that jt is good mor- al training for the boys and training that will help them after they leave school and college. The third series of games in the di- vision schedules will be played Saturday morning and afternoon. The schedules for the five divisions of the league will bo printed in Friday’s Post-Dispatch. ”s Dispatch manager of the letters from par- system

Democratic Senate Upholds Attorney-General Against the Governor.

NO VISIT IN 10 DAYS

Future Appointments Will Probably Be Held Up and Bills Defeated.

From a Staff Correspondent of the Post-Dispatch, JEFFERSON CITY, April 15.—Official relations between Gov. Hadley and At- torney-General Major have become de- cidedly strained as a direct consequence of the Governor’s injunction proceed- ings to prevent the railroads restoring the 3-cent passenger fare rate. The fact that the Attorney-General is a Democrat and the chief executive a Republican, has helped to widen the bréach, political leaders say. The General Assembly has taken cog- nizance of the pending controversy with the result that the Democratic Senate and the Republican House are divided into hostile camps. Senate Works Agninst Hadley. Senate there is a well-defined campaign to defeat every important measure urged by the administration. Democratic leaders assert that Major has been treated unfairly by the Repub- lican adminstration. The Attorney-Gen- eral himself says: “Hadley stole my thunder. It was I who suggested that we enjoin the rail- roads after they had restored the 3- cent rate. The Governor, without con- sulting me, caused the injunction to be issued before the railroads acted. “When the Governor is right, I shall stand by him to the last ditch, and when he is wrong, I shall freely oppose him. When I am right, he should stand by me, and when I am wrong, he should oppose me.”’ Gov. Hadley maintains that as the chief executive officer of the State, it was his duty to see that the railroads respected the law. He does not regard the Attorney-General’s objection to his course in the present instance as ma- terial to the great issue involved.

right and I offered no exception.”’ Dockery Ignored Crow. During the Dockery administration, Special attorneys were employed to ad- vise the Governor respecting legislation, the Attorney-General at that time, E. C. Crow, being ignored entirely. In the 1908 campaign, Mr. Major crit- icized Hadley’s administration as Attor- ney-General, but this was regarded as natural, and cannot be construed, polit- ical observers assert, as being in any- Wise responsible for the present situa- tion. , When the Standard Oil litigation was pending in the State Supreme Court, the Standard’s Missouri attorneys sub- mitted to Gov. Hadley a _ proposition to make Missouri a partner in the con- duct of the Standard’s business. Ap- parently the Attorney-General was overlooked. The ink was scarcely dry on the Standard’s propesition, however, when the Attorney-General’s office came out strongly against it. The Governor thought the proposition was worth considering, but Major's prompt opposition ended the negotia- tions: ° This little incident caused much com- ment. The railroads sought the Gov- ernor when they proposed a compro- mise in the rate fight. The Governor sent for the Attorney-General and a Jong conference, attended by the two off- cials and the representatives of the railroads, followed. At that conference, Gov. Hadley re- ported that the Attorney-General want- ed the railroads to establish a 2-cent fare on main lines and 3-cent on branch lines. Suggestion of Reprisal. The Attorney-General answered that “Gov. Hadley had made an honest mis- take by that assertion. I stood for a straight 2-cent fare all the way through,” said ‘he. There was just a suggestion of re- prisal on the Governor's part the other day ~hen he told the House in a special message that he had requested the At- torney-General to institute such pro- ceedings as may be deemed necessary to prevent the railroads from issuing passes. The Goverfor declared that the rail- roads had agreed to withhold free transportation on accoynt of a warning issued by him when Attorney-General, but they had violated the agreement. The Democratic Senate is determined that Gov. Hadley shall not get any glory out of the present Legislature, even though he has managed to outwit the Democratic Attorney-General on one or two occasions, It is more than probable that the Dem- ocrats will defeat the Hadley bill pro- viding for a State Public Utilities Com- mission, notwithstanding the fact that this measure was suggested originally by Democratic members. Plan to Hold Up Apyetntmeeta. They are resolved also to amend all home rule legislation so as to deprive the Governor of the right to remove derelict police or eléction officials in any of the large cities.

Outbursts of Applause Are Frequent During Speeches of Praise. HEAR CHORUS OF SIXTY

Silver Service Is Presented to Him as Token of Busi- ness Men’s Esteem .

Unstinted praise was heaped upon Rolla Wells, the retiring Mayor of St. Louis,.for the manner in which he con- ducted his office during his eight years of public service, at a farewell dinner and reception in his honor at the South- ern Hotel, Wednesday night. The greater part of the wealth of St. Louis Was represented by the more than four hundred business and professional men who sat at the banquet tables to bear testimony of their good will towarc Mr. Wells, and their appreciation of the services he rendered. At times the sentiments of the speak- ers started demonstrations in behalf of Mr. Wells, the banqueters arising from their tables, shouting, clapping their hands and: waving their napkins. One of these outbursts followed the declaration of Toastmaster James E. Smith that Mr. Wells had been unjustly attacked during his term of office; an- other when Archbishop John J. Glennon said, “an honest man, he was elected Mayor; an honest man, he retires,’”’ and another when Frederick W. Lehmann gaid that ‘“‘corruption never ventured to try the texture of his integrity.’’ The testimonial was tendered to Mayor Wells by men of all parties. There was in it no element of politics, many Re- publicaus as well as Democrats being Conspicuous in the event. Mr. Wells gat at the right of the toastmaster, and at his left was Mayor Frederick H. Kreismann, his successor. Mayor Kries- mann joined with the other speakers in congratulating him upon the esteem in which he is held by his fellow-citizens, and wishing him unbounded happiness in his future years. Some of the hosts, to do honor to Mayor Wells, broke their long-estab- lished precedents. It was stated that Samuel Cupples, who occupied a seat at the speakers’ table, had not dined away from his family for 27 years. Me, Wells Talks of Public Office, The sentiment of the speakers was that Mayor Wells had elevated the public service and - established new standards of honesty and efficiency in municipal government. In his own speech,: which was the last one of the evening, Mr. Wells said he had endeav- ored to make public office a_ public trust. He said he was not willing to take all the glory of the achievements of Kis administration, for much of it was due to the men who had been as- sociated with him ia the municipal gov- ernment.

invoked the divine mM Az. After each course a chorus “$0 trained singers, led by George Simmons, sang songs dedicated to thie advancement of St. Louis. Toastmaster Smith, who of the Business Men's League, was the first speaker. His sentiment was ‘“‘To Our Guest, from His Hosts.’’ Mr. Smith paid a splendid tribute to the retiriag Mayor, and said that no one could truthfully speak of the accompiish- ments of his administrations except in terms of praise. Kix-Governor Francis Speaks, All the living ex-mayors of St. Louis, with the exception of Henry Ziegen- hein and Edward A. Noonan, were at the banquet. Ex-Mayors D. R. Fran- cis, C. P. Walbridge and Chauncey Ives Filley were at the speakers’ table. Ex- Gov. Francis was the second speaker. He declareu that Mr. Wells had been unawed by popular clamor, tenacious in his convictions and unswerved by political ambitions throughout his term of office. He took pleasure, he said. in saying ‘‘well done” to Rolla Wells. Former Mayor Walbridge referred to himself as a member of the Ancient and Honorable Order of Former May- ors, and sdid the order was glad to welcome Rolla Wells. Mr. Walbridge paid a beautiful trib- ute to Mr. Wells, and then said that human nature does not linger with the setting sun, but turns its face to the east to greet the new day. He said that Mr. Kreismann had just been ushered in With the new municipal day, and that the people wished him godspeed. and would lend him their hearty co-opera- tion as long as he endeavored to truly serve them. J. Niccolls is president

“We bespeak for him your patience but not your indulgence,”’ said Mr. Wal- bridge; “‘your kindly eriticism if he is wrong and your courageous support if you believe him to be right." Mayor Kreismann followed Mr. Wal- bridge, and was given an enthusiastic reception. He spoke on the ‘‘Mayor’s Obligations,’’ and said that honesty of purpose, a consecration to the public welfare, cleanliness of heart and riotism should be the characteristics of the chief executive. He joined the other speakers in complimenting Mr. Wells upon his work as Mayor. Archbishop Glennon was on the pro- gram for a speech on civic reform. He said this was really an old subject, as the tablets recovered from the ruins of Babylon and along the Nile contained essays on municipal reform. He said: pat- “We Are All Reformers.” “We are aii reformers, when there is something to reform. There has been little to reform during the administra- tion of Rolla Wells. He did not preach civic reform from the housetops, but he practiced it at the City Hall. With Mr. Wells as Mayor we felt safe in our homes.”’ Mr. Lehmann closed his tribute to Mayor Wells by presenting him with a beautiful silver service, which had been bought by the business men of the city as a token of their appreciation for the public services of the guest of honor. Mr. Lehmann declared that the admin- istration of Mr. Wells “will remain for his children and their children, and for fellow citizens: a wholesome mem- and ‘a beneficent example.”’ Mr. Wells had been moved almost to tears by the many eloquent tributes to his ory Pnis work as Mayor.

He said, in begin- ning his response, that he felt like re- tiring from the hall for a few moments to get acquainted with himself. He thanked his friends for their considera- tion, told Mayor Kreismann he would render him every assistance in his pow- er, and concluded his remarks with an eulogy to his mother and his wife. “If I have succeeded in doing good to my fellowmen,”’ he said, ‘‘then the mem- ory of the one (his mother) and the tresence of the other (his wife), should share in the great honor you have this night conferred upon me.” After the speeches many of the hosts gathered at the speakers’ table to greet Mr. Wells and Mayor Kreismann. The promoters of the dinner were highly pleased with its success, and said they believed it would serve as an inspiration for other public officials to emulate the example of Mr. Wells and earn the plaudits of their fellow citizens by faithful and con- scientious public service, were concluded The committees in charge of the din- ner were: Committee on Invitation—W.

Freeholders and hear the discussions. ) Frederick W. Lehmann was elected ‘chairman of the Commission at its first meeting, held at the Planters Hotel late Wednesday. Dwight F. Davis was elect- .ed vice-chairman. A secretary, who is ‘not a member of the Commission, will i be chosen next Tuesday. Will Meet Twice Weekly. | The Freeholders will meet twice each | week, from 3 to 5:30 p. m. Tuesdays and l‘ridays. Special meetings will be held on the call of the chairman. Perma- nent headquarters will be selected, a committee composed of Henry Koehler Jr. and Edward Devoy being appointed to find suitable offices for the confer- ences of the Commission. Chairman Lehmann was authorized to appoint a committee of five to lay out the plan and scope of the work. Vincent McShane, a former member of the House of Delegates, who is chair- man of one of the voluntary charter revision committees, appeared before the Freeholders and suggested that some- thing should be done to get the Legisla- ture to pass a bill to provide a special registration day prior to the Charter election. Bill Before Legislature. Mr. McShane stated that under the law the Charter, as prepared by the Freeholders, must be submitted to the people for adoption or rejection in 2% days after its completion. The election laws provide that the last day of regis-. tration shall be 47 days before an elec. tion. A bill is pending in the Legislature to provide for at least one day of regis- tration before the Charter election, and Mr. McShane urged the Freeholders io see that it is passed. A committee com- posed of John F. Lee, J. D. Howe and John Schmoll was appointed to co-oper- ate with Mr. McShanes committee, the other members of which are H. L. Christie and Benjamin Schnurmacher. WOMAN ASSERTS SHE WAS BEATE AT POOR FARM - Alton Police Matron Asks In- vestigation of Conditions in Madison County.

‘Alleging cruel treatment for four years, Mrs. Lottie Brockman, 74 years old, who escaped from the Madison County Poor Farm at Edwardsville, IIl., last Friday, and took refuge in the Old Ladies’ Home at Alton, has interested Mrs. Sophia Demuth, Alton Police Ma- tron and reformer, in her case, and Mrs. Demuth has requested the State Board of Charities to investigate the ~ condi- tions at the Poor Farm. Mrs. Brockman says she was sent to the Poor Farm four years ago and has been ‘‘treated mean’’ from the start. Four weeks ago Saturday, she says, she asked permission to visit a woman liv- ing two miles from the farm, to get some German papers to read. Permis- sion was refused, but she went anyhow, a few days later, and got the papers. “I was locked in a cell for two hours when I returned,” says Mrs. Brockman, “and when they let me out I objected to such treatment. One of the attend- ants then’ got a big club and struck me across the arm. They tried to put me in the cell again, but I refused to go. Kept on Bread and Water. Finally they forced me in and kept me there two hours longer. When I was released they gave me only bread and water for supper.”’ Mrs. Brockman has bruises on her right arm. She complains that the food at the poor farm is not properly nour- ishing. Dried apples, dried peaches and day bread, she says, are the staples, and such meat as :s served is not cooked palatably. Mrs. Brockman says once she became so hungry that she begged a nicke! from an attendant, went to Edwards- ville and bought a loaf of bread, and, returning, ate it in her room. — Edward de Zingolaski, supervisor of the poor farm, denies that the old woman was mistreated. He says it was nécessary to lock her up because she was in the habit of running away, but that no attendant ever beat her. Busy Bee Bargain Day Tomorrow. Broadway Mixture, % Chocolates, l5c a Ib.

Mean Joke on a Parrot. From Tit-Bits. An ardent golfer, by way of a joke, dropped a gold ball into a nest his an- cient parrot had built in the corner of its cage. Polly sat with exemplary pa- tience on her novel egg, and appeared pretty well heart-broken when the weeks went by and she found herself unre- warded. At last parrot flesh and blood could stand it no longer. A terrible screeching brought her owner down- stairs at 3 o'clock one morning. ‘‘What’s the matter, Polly?” he asked, chipped trying to get at the egg’s ine | terior. “Matter!” screeched the bird. “Great Scot! I’m bunkere#.”

JOHN MENZ PERKED UP

Is Surprised at St. Louis System That Caused Ar- rest for Drinking. a Wealthy Man Takes Steps to Insure Sweetheart Getting His Property. He Knew the Girl He Had Courted Had Been Widowed but a Month Before.

Carl Volintick of the lumber camps was not glad he slept in the Carr Street Station Wednesday night when he woke Thursday morning with an awful head- ache and a desire for ice water. he peered out be- tween the bars of his cell he imag ined the day was a gloomy one. Then as he paced the length of the nar- row coop he dug his hands into his trousers pockets. “Curse my luck, I've been robbed,” he moaned as he felt vainly for his money. “What seems to be the _ trouble?” asked Lieut. Mc- Cormack, attract- ed to the cell by Voltinck’s mutter- ings. “Trouble?” ech-| oed the lodger. “It's the worst kind of trouble you ever heard of. I worked hard in the lumber camps of Minnesota and saved some money. Miss Cora Dorman, a country gir], who went from her home in the little village of Millstadt to be a clerk in a Belleville store has captured Belleville’s ‘‘best catch,’’ Adam who is one of that city’s wealthiest men. She is 21 years old and he is 53, a little more than 2% times the bride’s age. News of the wedding was telephoned from Springfield, Ill., by Mr. Jung and it was a great surprise to Belleville. The bridegroom has five children, three of whom, his married daughters, are older than their new stepmother. His son, Eugene, ig 21, the,same age as the bride, and another son, Roland, is 14 years old. One of the daughters, 'Mrs. Emil Brechnitz, 27 years old, re- eeived a visit from the stork Wednes- day. Her little girl is Mr. Jung’s third grandchild. Mr. Jung did not telephone details of the wedding at Springfield. All that he said was that the ceremony was per- formed there Wednesday and that he and his bride are going East on their honeymoon. Daughter to Leave Family Home. Thursday Mrs. L. E. Tieman, Mr. Jung’s daughter, who has been living at the palatial family home at Mascou- tah avenue and Monroe streets, an- nounced that she will move from there to East St. Louis before the return of her father and his bride, Mrs. Percival Park, another daughter, Thursday denied that the wedding had anything to do with the action of her sister in leaving the family home. “We knew that my father was en- gaged,’ satd Mrs. Park, but she spoke of her father’s message from Spring- field in a Way to indicate that {t was a surprise to the family. Bride Is a Blonde. The bride is a handsome blonde. She went to work in the sheet music depart- ment of the Knopp Brothers music store AVhen you want a husband, advertise for a home and get both, is the advice of Mrs. John Menz of Edwardsville, IIl., who was Mrs. Josephine Smith until Wednesday afternoon and Mrs. Smith until a month ago, when her hus- band was killed by a Wabash train. She ¢ried this method with prompt success this week. Mrs. Smith, newly-made course had no thought of getting a hus- ’ band when she inserted in a newspaper | a “want ad” to the effect that a widow mvanted a home. What she really want- ed, or supposed she wanted, was an op- pertunity to support herself and her two little fatherless children. ‘But the nimble ‘want ad’’ worked ad- Mitably in heart-healing as well as in home-getting. The eye of John Menz perused the little advertisement, which was signed “J. S., Rural Route No, 2, Edwardsville.’ John Menz Perks Up. It required no seer to convince John Menz that “J. S."’ was Josephine Smith, fer he had read about her husband's sudden death and he knew she lived on Rural Route No. 2. Also, he knew Jo- gephine—had known her long before she was wife or widow. In fact, both he and John Smith had courted her, and John Smith had won. That was four years ago. Now Mrs. Smith was a widow in the bloom of her young wom- anhood. John Menz, once rejected, perked up hand. amazingly when he read the 6 iittle “want.’’ Between the lines he read some- Proportion to Be thing that he wanted hiniself, for he Winning Feature still wanted Josephine. - Of course, he had not been bold HEN the Board of Judges S100 FOR THE PRETTIEST HAND enough to ask for her so early after she comes to review the many hands of St. Jung, a widower, John LENSE LUE CK E- RAT/, P/ANO PLAVER, 2258 BLAlTR Ab. marking time as it were.

So John Menz made up his mind to give the widow “J. S.” a home with a husband thrown in for good. measure, provided she would accept the cembina- tion. : It was Tuesday evening when John read the tiny but tempting advertise- ment. John reached for his hat. Post- haste he hied to the house on Rural Route No. 2, where he knew his old sweetheart and her two little ones were living. Same Juatice Officiates, Mrs. Smith was glad to see Mr. Menz. Yes, she had advertised—that was her weight. The gbrrectness of propor- tion, regularity, the form of the nails—such points will control their judgment. The hand of a working woman, if it be not marred and knuckled and blunted by her tasks, will have as good a chance as the hand of a pampered pet. Four prizes will be awarded—$160 to the owner of the most beautiful hand, $25, $15 and $10 to the secqnd, third and fourth choices of the judges.

Engagement Not Announced, The movements of as wealthy a man as the love-smitten shoe merchant at- tracted more than passing notice and the engagement announcement was awaited with great expectancy. But there wasn’t any formal an- nouncement. Mr. Jung did not go to his shoe store Wednesday. Miss Dor- man did not report for duty behind the sheet-music counter. They were off for Springfield, where the knot was tie@a a few hours later, according to the message received from the bridegroom.

That did not make enough noise to suit him, so so he kicked the faucet from the waste pipe and played handball with that until Lieut. Hess, at the request of 42 other prisoners, went to Lynch's cell asked him if he couldn’t keep “want ad."’ John had thought so, and go forth. Of course it was hers. Preliminaries occupied but little time. Menz got down to business. It was Sudden, very sudden, but the widow Was willing. She had liked Jehn Menz ever so well before her marriage, any- But and quiet. “Well, I should say not,” prisoner. ‘I’m not going to body in here sleep tonight. ‘We'll see about that,” said Hess. Hess called the turnkey and they took Lynch from his cell and placed him in the visiting ‘‘room.” There was just room enough there for Lynch to sit down, and he could have yelled until hoarse without disturbing anyone, be- cause the heavy screening muffled the sound. Atia.m., Thursday, he showed the “white flag’’ and was transferred to a regular cell. Lynch will be charged in police court with disturbing the peace and destroy- ing property.

AGED WOMAN LIES DOWN AND WELCOMES COMING OF DEATR Welcoming the end of a life drawing near to the century mark, Mrs. An- toinette Disch died at the Good Samar- itan Hospital. Supt. Schiek of the hos- pital said Thursday that he had never before seen so peaceful a death. “It was. like a child going to sleep,” he said. “She was up and around the building Wednesday, and in the after- noon went to her room, lay down, and in a few moments had ceased to breathe."’ No cause but age is assigned. Mrs. Disch was 93 years old. She had been a widow 60 years, and had survived all her children. Funds for her support were exhausted two years ago, and she had since been a charity patient. She often expressed, though not in a bitter or complaining manner, a desire to die.

To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch, “‘McPherson” certainly hit the nail on the head when he asked if “cash customers’’ seemingly were not wanted in the large retail stores. I have been 4 bookkeeper for a large retail concern for the last five years and can therefore write with some de- gree of certainly, and my advice to McPherson or anyone else who can, is to open “charge accounts” whenever they buy clothing or any household goods from large retailers. Of the smaller stores, I cannot say as to their treatment of a cash customer. For instance, A has purchased from a large store all his dry goods for several years, paying cash at the time of purchase, Upon the arrival of a package of goods, for which he has paid in advance, he finds some defect in the cloth which was not there when he bought it, perhaps damaged in delivery. Now, A must carry this bundle back to the store, register a kick, and if he hears nothing from them, must chase back again, and again waste his time and los- ing his temper, taking it up with floorwalkers, heads of departments, managers, etc., each telling him, “They will look into it,’ till he simply gets tired of it all and if the purchase be small he lets it go, and if large, he wastes about $10 of time to get a dollar’s worth of goods. He thinks that having paid cash for so long, the store would appreciate it all the more, but he learns his name is not known In the store except as “cash sale.’’ Now, in comes B, a “charge” customer, who buys no more goods than A does, and takes 30 days longer to pay for them. B gets a bad deal similar to A’s. All B does is to phone the store of it, telling them to send out a new piece and take back the damaged goods, something A could not do without paying cash for the new goods. When B’s goods are returned a credit mem- orandum is sent to him and his account credited. If ne attention is paid to B’s complaint he does not worry, knowing full well he can get more goods and then when his monthly statement comes around, all B has to do {s to deduct his damaged goods from

Miss Mary EB. Woolley, president of Mount Hol- yoke College for Girls, has perhaps had superior opportunities for observation, but her conclusion that the girl from the factory, shop or office, not the college-bred girl, makes the ideal wife, is hardly supported by her premises. “It is the working girl,’ says Miss Woolley, “who develops the proper appreciation of a home, and is much more anxious to be married than her sister who has a home of her own.” ‘As between the girl whé works and has no ‘home and the non-working girl with a home, this may be very true. But what has it to do with the college-bred woman? Her position is not dif- ferent from that of either of the others in this respect. She belongs to both classes.

MR. HITCHCOCK’S CAREER, From the New York Tribune. Mr. Hitchcock did a great work, and did it out of a clear sense of personal and official obligation. The bitter en- mities ‘which he incurred are a tribute to the zeal and thoroughness with which he applied his policies. He never was in the least a politician, but always an administrator, with an eye single to the protection of public interests and the improvement of the public service. He left a mark on that service which will last. He will be remembered as a pub- lic man who accomplished much and who always lived up to his own high ideals of industry, justice and duty, WHERE ROOSEVELT HUNTS, From the National Geographic Maga- zine, Here may be séen large herds of gi- raffes, as one might see cattle stand- ing about in an English park.

And it is more than likely that her training gives her a better insight into the responsibilities of the mar- ried state and better fits her to bear them than the semi-independence gained by work in office, factory or shop. - At least Miss Woolley has thrown no light on the situation as between the college-bred woman =» and her sister.

OMEN are vain creatures!’ observed the bridegroom, ap- parently to the chandelier. “T suppose so,”’ echoed the bride absently from her point of vantage before the mirror. For the past hour she had been absorbed in the intricacies of a new way to do her hair, and her voice held the tone of aloof and indifferent acqui- escence that, to the bridegroom at least, seemed her most exasperating accomplishment. “Just imagine a man standing before a mirror, turning his face this way and that, and making eyes at himself as you are doing continued the _ bride- groom. “Much good it would did!” sniffed the bride loftily. “Oh, I don’t know!” answered the bridegroom. ‘“‘But beyond wishing to be clean and quietly dressed no real man ever gives any thought to his personal appearance.”’ “Why should he?" throwing an _ intentionally glance at her reflection in the “And yet—and yet,’’ she mused. ‘‘why is it that no woman can ever get a chance at any of the mirrors in the sub- way? I suppos. the men are merely looking to see if their heads are on straight. Of course,” she pronounced judiciously, ‘“Their heads never are!” “Well; now, that’s settled!”’ jeered the bridegroom. He was already beginning to be sorry he had not left the bride to her new coiffure. But the bride by this time had forgotten all about her hair. “You think women are vain and ego- t‘stical!’’ she began excitedly. “Oh, ,ou’ve said it many times and I've tr.ade no answer.

She’s never vain of just being a woman. But men! They think that just being men is some- thing to strut and preen about. They claim to have superior intellects. great- er courage, all bestowed upon them by a prenatal accident by the blind chance cf set determination.’’ The bridegroom looked shocked. “Oh, I’ve been studying about those things!’’ resumed the bride. “Of course, there are a whole lot of theories. There's that Schenck idea, for instance, ciaiming that it’s a matter of diet and mode of living. What is it but an elab- station of the nursery rhyme?— Sugar and spice And everything nice, And that’s what little girls of’— And it isn’t .rue.” “No doubt the medical world will be glad to have a definite word on the subject,”’ interrupted the bridegroom. “Oh, I merely »rought that up,’ the bride answered more mildly—she was ‘ust a little bit shocked herself—‘‘to show you what a silly thing it is to ive. vain of something that was deter- mined before you were born, and, so far as anybody knows, absolutely by chance.

The bridegroom offered no answer to any of these whys. Where was the sweet, clinging depend- ent and superlatively “cute” child he had married? Surely she was not this deep-toned ' Valkyrie—the bride's hair had come down—who rode so arrogantly the domestic storm. “They are all alike,’’ he said to him- self, sadly—a long vista of disillusion- ment opening before him. Meantime the bride had begun to calm down. Looking at the _ bride- groom's set face, his rigid figure, she experienced a sudden sense of panic. What, compared with their happiness, were a few abstract truths concerning the attitude of man to woman as she saw it? Why should she seek to over- come in him the result of the slow building of centuries in which the hus- band had always said to the wife “I am Sir Oracle!’ Moreover, what good would it do? She wanted to go over to him, put her arms around him and say she was sorry. But instead, quite unintention- ally, she did something much more ef- fective. Il-or 15 uncomfortable minutes she read the evening paper while the bridegroom sulked over his book. She even inflicted a penance on herself by poring over his favorite sporting page. Then suddenly her clearest and most babyish accents cleft the silence. “Jack,”’ she asked “what’s a cauliflower ear? Tom Sharkey has one.” The bridegroom laughed. And while the light came slowly back into his eyes—for had not the strange Valkyrie gone away and his dear, sim- ple baby returned to him? hay ‘py anne?

Dicksie is the owner of a ranch in the Crawling Stone which is managed by her cousin. Dicksie and her cousin take Sinclair’s side in the eentroversy with McCloud. McCloud lives in Medicine Bend in a boarding house run by Marion Sinclair. the neglected wife of Mur- ray Sinclair. McCloud finds a pass through which & railroad may run into the Crawling stone Valley. tapping a rich and coveted country. The Smoky Creek Bridge is mys- teriously burned. CHAPTER IX. Sweeping Orders. HE Burning of Smoky Creek Bridge was hardly off the minds of the mountain men when a Wisaster of a different sort befell the division. In the Rat valley east of Sleepy Cat the main line springs be- tween two ranges of hills with a din and a long supported grade in each direction, At the point of the dip there is a switch from which a spur runs to a granite quarry. The track for two miles is straight and the switeh target and lights are seen eas- ily from either direction save at one particular moment of the day—a mo- ment which is in the valley neither quite lay nor quite night. Down this xrade, a few weeks after the Smoky Creek fire. came a double-headed Stock train from the Short Line with 40 cars of steers. The switch stood open; this much was afterward abund- antly proved. The train’ came down the grade very fast to gain speed for the hill ahead of it. The head engine- man. too late, saw the open tarvet. He applied the emergency air, threw his engine over, and whistled the alarm. The mightiest efforts of a dozen en- gines would have been powerless to check the heavy train. On the quarry track stood three flat cars loaded with granite blocks for the abutment of the new Smoky Creek bridge. On a sanded track, rolling at 30 miles an hour and screaming in the clutches of the burning brakes, the heavy engines struck the switch like an avalanche, reared upon the granite-laden flats. and with 40 loads of cattle plunged into the canyon below: not a car re- mained on the rails. The head brake- man, riding in the second cab, was in- stantly killed, and the engine crews, whe jumped, were badly hurt. The whole operating department of the road was stirred, What made the affair more dreadful was that it had eccurred on the time of Number Six. the east-Waund passenger train held that morning at Sleepy Cat by an en- cine failure. Glover came to look into the matter. The testimony of all tended to one conclusion—that the quarry switch had been thrown at some time between 4:30 and 5 o'clock that morning. Inferences, were many: Tramps during the early summer had been unusually troublesome and many of them had been rigorously handled by trainmen;: robbery might have been a motive. as the express cars on train Number Six carried heavy specie ship- ments from the coast, A third and more soon put the quarry background. Ten days afterward an east-bound passenger train was flagged in the night at Sugar Buttes, 12 miles west of Sleepy Cat. When the heavy train slowed up, two men boarded the engine and with pistols compelled the engineman to cut off the express cars and pull them to the water tank a mile east of the station. Three men there in waiting forced the express car, blew open the safe, and the gang rode away half an_ hour later loaded with gold coin and cur- rency. Had a stick of dynamite been ex- ploded under the Wickiup there could not have been more excitement at Medicine Bend. Within three hours after the news reached the. town a posse under Sheriff Van Horn, with a ear load of horseflesh and 14 guns, was started for Sugar Buttes. The trail led north and the pursuers rode _ until nearly nightfall. They crossed Dutch flat and rode single file into a wooded canyon, where they came upon traces of a campfire. Van Horn, leading, jumped from his horse and thrust his hand into the ashes; they were still warm, and he shouted to his men to ride up. As he called out, a rifle cracked from the box-elder trees aheaa or him. The sheriff fell, shot through the head, and a deputy springing from his saddle to pick him up was shot in precisely the same way; the posse, thrown into a panic, did not fire a single shot, and for an hour dared not ride back for the bodies. After dark they got the two dead men and at midnight rode with them into Sleepy Cat. When the news reached McCloud he was talking with Bucks over the wires. Bucks had got into headquarters at the river late that night, and was getting details from McCloud of the Sugar Buttes robbery when the superintendent sent him the news of the killing of Van Horn sand the deputy. In the answer that Bucks sent came a name new to the wires of the mountain division and rarely seen in é@pecial correspond- ence, but Hughie Morrison, who took the message, never forgot that name. Hughies handed the message to McCloud and stood by while the superintendent read: : “Whispering Smith is due in Cheyenne tomorrow. Meet him at the Wickiup Sunday morning; he has full authority. I have told him to get these fellows if it takes all the money in the treasury, and not te stop till he cleans them out of the Rocky Mountains. ae a CHAPTER X. At the Three Horses. (6 LEAN them out of the Rocky (J Mountains: that is a pretty good contract,”” mused the man in Mc- Cloud's office on Sunday morning. He sat opposite McCloud in Bucks’ old easy chair and held in his hand Bucks’ tele. gram. As he spoke he raised his eye. brows and settled back, but the unusua} depth of the chair and the shortness of his legs left his chin helpless in jyjs black tie, so that he was really no bet. ter off except that he had changed one position of discomfort for another. A clerk opened the outer office door. “Mr. Dancing asks if he can see you. Mr. McCloud,” a “Tell him I am busy. Bill Dancing, close on the clerk's heels, spoke for himself. “I know jt. Mr. McCloud, I know it!’ he interposed urgently, “but let me speak to yoy just a moment.” Hat in hand, Bill, be. cause no one wou'd knock him down to keep him ee poe into the room. * oy a n, e reed, * n re ar : noes these hold cards Valley event the exciting wreck into

erossed his knees violently, stared at the giant lineman, and exclaimed: ‘‘Let’s have it!” Dancing looked at him in silence and with some contempt. The trainmaster had broken in on the superintendent for a moment and the two were con- ‘erring in an undertone. “‘What migh: your name be, mister?’ growled Dance ng, addressing with some condescension the man in the easy chair. The man waved his hand as if it were immaterial and answered with a single word: “Forgotten!” ‘‘How’s that?’ “BRorgotten!”’ Dancing looked from one man to the other, but McCloud appeared preoccu- pied and his visitor seemed wholly seri- don’t want to take too much ous, “I ’ Bill began, to on myself—' McCloud. “You look as if you could carry a fair-sized load, William, provided it bore the right label.” suggested the visitor, entirely amiable. ‘“ Rut nobody has felt worse over this thing than recent things—’’ “Recent things,’ echoed chair. “happening to the division than I have. Now I know there’s been trou- ble on the division—” “T think you are putting it too strong there, Bill, but let it pass.”’ ‘‘_there’s heen differences: misunder- standing and differences. So I says to myself maybe something might be done to get everybody together and bury the differences: like this: Murray Sinclair is in town: he feels bad over this thing. like anv railroad man would. He's a mountain man, quick as the quickest with a gun, a good trailer, rides like a fiend. and can catch a streak of sun- shine traveling on a pass. Why not put him at the head of a party to run "em down?” “Run ’em down,’ nodded the stranger. “Differences such as be or may be—” “May be—’’ “RBeing discussed when he brings 'em in dead or alive. and not before. That’s what I said to Murray Sinclair, and Murray Sinclair is ready for to take hold this minute and do what he can if he’s asked. TI told him plain I could prom- ise no promises: that. I says, lays with George MeCloud. Was T right, was T wrong? If I was wrong. right me: if I was right, say so. All I want is har- mony.” The new man nodded apnrroval. ‘Bully, Bill!” he exclaimed, heartily. “Mister.’” protested the lineman, with simple dignity. “T’d just a little rather you wouldn't bully me nor Bill me.” “All_ in good part. Bill, as you shall see: all in good part. Now before Mr. McCloud Pives ‘Vou his decision I: want to be allowed a word. Your idea looks good to me. At first I may say it didn’t. T am candid: I say it didn’t. It looked like setting a dog to catch his own tail. Mind you, T @on’t say it can’t be done. A dog can catch his own tail: they do it.”’ proclaimed the stranger in a low and emphatic undertone. ‘‘But,”’ he added, moderating his utterance, “when they succeed—who gets anything out of it but the dog?” Bill Dancing, somewhat clouded and not deeming it well to be drawn into any damaging admissions, looked around for a cigar, and not seeing one, looked solemnly at the new Solomon, and stroked his beard. “That is how it looked to me at first.” concluded the orator: ‘‘but, I say now it looks good to me, and as a stranger I may sav I favor it.” Dancing tried to look unconcerned and seemed disposed to he friendly. ‘‘What might be your line of business?” “Real estate. I am from Chicago. I sold everything that was for sale in Chicago and came here to stake out the Spanish Sinks and the Great Salt Lake—ves. It's drying up and there's an immense opportunity for claims along the shore. I’ve been looking into it.’’ “Into the claims or into the lake?’’ asked MeCloud. “Into both; and, Mr. McCloud, I want to say I favor Mr. Dancing’s idea, that’s all. Right wrongs no man. Let Bill see Sinclair and see what they can fig- ure out.” And having spoken, the stranger sank back and tried to look comfortable. “T'll talk with you later about ft, Bill,” sail McCloud, briefly. ‘“‘Meantime, Bill, see Sinclair and re- port.”’ suggested the stranger. “It’s as good as done,”’ announced Dancing, taking ‘up his hat, ‘“‘and. Mr. McCloud, might I have a little advance for cigars and things?’’ “Cigars and ammunition—of course. See Svkes, Willlam, see Sykes: if the office is closed go to his house—and see what will happen to you—” added the visitor in an aside, “and tell him to telephone up to Mr. McCloud for in- struction,’’ he concluded, unceremoni- ously. “Now why do you want to start Rij] on a fool business like that?” asked McCloud, as Bill Dancing took tong steps from the room toward the office of Sykes, the cashier. “He didn’t know me today, but he will tomorrow, said the stranger, re- flectively. ‘Gods, what I’ve seen that man go through in _ the davs of. the speaking the easy

“Fogarty, Hell!” He Exclaimed. giants! Why, George, this will keep the boys talking, and they have to do something. Spend the money; the com- pany is making it too fast anyway. they moved 22.000 cars one day last week. Personally I’m glad to have a little fun out of it: it will be hell pure and undefiled long before we get through. This will be an easy way of letting Sin- clair know I am here. Bill will re- port me confidentially to him as a sus- picious personage.”’ To the astonishment of Sykes, the superintendent confirmed over .the tel- ephone Dancing’s statement that he was to draw some expense money. Bill asked for $25. Sykes offered him two, and Bill with some indignation accepted five. He spent all of this in trying to find Sinclair, and on the strength of his story to the boys borrowed $5 more to prosecute the search. At 10 o’clock that night hearan into Sinclair playing cards in the big rooms above the Three Horses. The Three Horses still rears its hospitable two-story front in Fort street, the onlv one of the Medicine Bend gam- bling houges that goes back to the days of ’67: and it is the boast of its owners that since the key was thrown away 39 vears ago its doors have never been closed, night or- day, except once for two hours during the funeral of Dave Hawk. Bill Dancing drew Sinclair from his game and told him of the talk with McCloud, touching it up with na- tural enthusiasm. The bridgeman took the news in high good humor and slapped Dancing. on the back. “Did you see him alone, Bill?’ asked Sinclair, with interest. ‘‘Come over here, come along.. I want vou to meet a good friend. Here, Harvey. shake hands with Bill Dancing. Bill, this fs old Harvey Du Sang, meanest man in the mountains to his enemies and the whit- est to his friends—eh, Harvey?" Harvey seemed uncommunicative. Studying his hand, he asked in a sour way whether it was a jackpot, and upon being told that it was not. pushed for- ward some chips and looked stupidly up —though Harvev was by no means stupid. ‘‘Proud to know you, sir,’ said Bill, bending frankly as he put out his hand. ‘‘Proud to know any friend of Murray Sinclair's. What might be your business?" Again Du Sang appeared abstracted. He looked up at the giant lineman, who, in spite of his own size and strength, could have crushed him between his fingers, and hitched his chair a little, but got no further toward an answer extended hand. “Cow business, clair, ‘‘Where? Bill,”’ interposed Sin- Why, up near the park, Bill, up near the park. Bill is an old friend of mine, Harvey. Shake hands with George Seagrue. Bill, and vqu know Henry Karg—and old Stormy Gprman- well, I guess vou know him, too,”’ ex- claimed Sinclair, introducing tire other players. ‘“‘Look here a minute, Har- vey.”’ Harvey, much against his inclination, was drawn from the table and retired with Sinclair and Dancing told his story again. At the conclusion of it Harvey rather snorted. Sinclair asked questions. ‘“‘Was anybody else there when you saw McCloud, Bill?” “One man,” answered Bill, sively. “Who?” “A stranger to me.” “A stranger? What did he look like?’ “Slender man and kind of odd look- ing, with a sandy mustache.’”’ “Hear his name?” ‘‘He told me his name, but it’s skipped me, I declare. He’s kind of dark-com- plected like,”’ “Stranger, eh?’’ mused Du Sang: his eyes were wandering over the room. “Slender man,’’ repeated Bill, “but I didn’t take much notice of him. Said he was in the-real estate business.”’ ‘In the real estate business? And did he sit there while you talked this over with the college guy?’ muttered Du Sang. “He is all right, boys, and he said you'd know his name if I could speak it.”" declared Bill. “Took anything like that man stund- ing with his hands in his pockets over there by the wheel?” asked Du Sang. turning his back carefully on a new- impres- comer as he made the suggestion. “Where—there? No! Yes, hold ‘on. that’s the man there now! Hold on. now!’ urged Bill, struggling with the excitement of 10 hours and $10 In one day. “His name sounded like Fogarty.” As Dancing spoke, Sinclair's eyes riveted on the new face at the other side of the gambling room. ‘Fogarty. hell!’ he exclaimed, starting. “Stand right still, Du Sang; don’t look around. That man is Whispering Smith. CHAPTER XI. Parley. T was recalled one evening not long ago at the Wickiup that the affair with Sinclair had all taken place within a period of two years, and that practically all of the actors in the event had been together and in friendly re. lation on a Thanksgiving day at the Dunning ranch not 80 very long before the trouble began. Dicksle Dunning was away at school at the time, and Lance Dunning was celebrating with a rid- ing and shooting fest and a barbhe- cue. The whole country had been invited. Bucks was In the mountains on an in- spection trip, and Bill Dancing drove him with a party of railroad men over from Medicine Bend. The mountain men for 150 miles around were out. Gene ang Bob Johnson, from Oroville and the Peace River, had come with their friends. From Williams Cache there was not only a big delegation—more of one than was really desirable—but. {¢ was led by old John Rebstock himself When the invitation is general, lines cannot be too closely drawn. Not on)y was Lance Dunning something of 4 sport himself, but on the Long Range it is part of a stockman’s creed to he on good terms with his neighbors. a; a Thanksgiving day barbecue not ever a mountain sheriff would ask question. and Ed Banks, though resent, ra. spected the holiday truce. owboys rode that day in the roping contest who were from — Creek and from Two ve r ver. ae the railroad Bob Scott.

When the shoot- ng matches were announced a brown- ->yed railroad man was asked to enter. de had been out of the mountains for time and was a+ comparative tranger in the gathering, but the Will- ams Cache men had not forgotten him: Rebstock, especially, wanted to see him shoot. While much of the t!me out of he mountains on railroad business, he was known fo be closely in Bucks’ coun- sels, and as to the mountains them- ‘elves, he was reputed to know them ‘etter than Bucks or Glover himself ‘cnew them. This was Whispering smith; but, beyond a low-voiced greet- ing or an expression of surprise at meet- ing an old acquaintance, he avoided talk. When urged to shoot he resisted all per- suation and backed up his refusal by showing a bruise up on his trigger fin- ger. He declined even to act as judge in the contest, suggesting the sheriff, Ed Ranks, for that office. McCloud did not meet the host, Lance Dunning, that day nor since the day of the barbecue had Du Sang or Sin- clair seen Whispering Smith until the night Du Sang spotted him near the wheel in the Three Horses. Du Sang at once drew out of his game and left the room. Sinclair in the meantime had undertaken a quarrelsome interview with Whispering Smith. “T supposed you knew I was here,”’ said Smith to him, amlably. “Of course IT don’t travel in a private car or carry a billboard on my back, but I haven't been, hiding.’’ _“The last time we talked,” returned Sinclair, measuring words carefully, “vou were going to stay out of the motuntains.’’ “IT should have been glad to. Murray. Affairs are in such shape on the di- vision now that somebody had to come, so they sent for me.” The two men were sitting at a table. Whispering Smith was cutting and leis- urely mixing a pack of cards. “Well, so far as I’m concerned, I’m out of it,’’ Sinclair went on after a pause, ‘“‘but, however that may be, if vou’re back here looking for trouble there’s no reason, I guess, why you ean't find it.”’ “That's not it. I’m not here looking’ for trouble; I'm here to fix this thing up. What do you want?” “Not a_ thing.’’ “T’'m willing to do anvthing fair and ’ : only this to make things clear. Bucks feeis that he’s been treated worse than a dog.” “Then I belong. “Tt’s a little late for that, Murray; a little laté,”’ sald Smith, gently. “Shouldn't you rather take good money and get off the division? Mind you, I say good money, Murray—and peace. Sinclair answered without the slight- est hesitation: “Not while that man McCloud is here.” ea Whispering Bmith smiled. “I've got me no authority to kill McCloud.” I “There are plenty of men in the moun- tains that don’t need any.” “But let’s start fair,”” urged Whis- pering Smith, softly. He leaned forward with one finger extended in confidence. “Don’t let us have any misunderstand- ing on the start. Let McCloud alone. If he is killed—now I’m speaking fair and open and making no threats, but I know how it will come out—there will be nothing but killing here for six months. We will make just that mem- orandum on McCloud. Now about the main question. Every sensible man in the world wants something.” “T know men that have been going a long’ time without what they wanted.”’ Smith flushed and nodded. “You needn’t have said that, but no matter. Every sensible man wants something, Murray. This is a big country. There's a World’s Fair running somewhere all the time in it. Why not travel a lit- tle? What do you want?” “T want my job, or I want a new superintendent here.”’ “Just exactly the two things, and, by heavens! the only two, I can’t man- age. Come once more and I'll meet rou.”’ : “No!”’ Sinclair rose to his feet. “‘No— damn your money! This is my home. The high country is my country; it’s where my friends are.’’ “It’s filled with your friends; I know that. But don’t pat your trust in your friends. They will stay by you, I know; but once in a long while there will be a false friend, Murray, one that will sell you—remember that.” “T stay.” Whispering Smith looked up in ad- miration. “I know you’re game. _ It isn’t necessary for me to say that to you. But think of the fight you are going into against this company. You can worry them; you've done it.

control that big Jack did yesterday. The same old fault of the Browns that kept them from winning a pennant last year was apparent yesterday, tnough not in a pronounced form. That fault is their baserunning. It isn’t that they are dumb on the bases. if anything, it is because they are too cautious. Yet when one of them does get a stimulus to do something daring, he generally fails in it. Tom Jones tried to stretch a single ‘into a double in the sixth inning and it was a good play, too, because the outfielder had slightly fumbled the ball, he had a long throw to make and the Browns were behind, with one man out. But -the throw from the outfield was absolutely perfect, and Tom was tagged out in

Cleveland, as a club, hardly came up to expectations. It was weak in batting and showed no more speed on the bases than the Browns. It is not con- Structed for winning ball games as De- troit wins them, or as thé Cubs or Giants do. It must win its games as the Browns and White Sox win theirs, careful playing, sterling defense and ac- tive brain. / But to all indications, Cleveland has a string of pitchers strong enough to carry it through a season in that style of play, and come out victorious in the end. Nothing but good pitching and a strong flelding game can bring victory to a team that is weak in hitting and base running. The Cleveland defense was fine yes- terday. Little Terry Turner at short- stop makes the team better by 20 per cent than last season. His arm may not be as strong as it was two years ago, but it was strong enough to shoot every man out at first in yesterday's game. Then, besides, he did gome lightning work in scooping grounders and tossing to Larry for double plays, and he can tag a man with the bal]

Unexpected Strength in Game left-handed pitcher is working for the opposing team Hoffman will be on the bench, though he has been less bothered by them this spring than since he was hit in the head several years ago. Hoffman got two of the Browns’ eight hits, and one of them was a line drive, the best of the day. It went into the crowd in right center and but for the ground rules, Danny would easily have reached third with a chance for a home run. Hobe Ferris also hit one ball into the crowd for a double and Tom Jones scraped one along the right-field foul line for two bags. Stone rapped out two singles and was robbed of a double by Lord's marvelous catch. All of the Browns were hitting the ball well. There was but one of them struck out during the entire game, that being Wallace, and it was at a time when Joss was using extra Steam because there was a man on second and no one out. It seems that the long batting practice of the past week has helped McAleer's men greatly, but he doesn’t intend to let them off yet.

KET CHEL WILL CAMP ON CHAMPION’S TRAIL ABROAD YORK, April 15.—Stanley were the middleweight cham- Pion, is-another fighter who is Planning a trip to England. Wil- lus Britt, his manager, announced today that he had decided to take Stanley to the other side and that they would leave here about May 27, which is two days after Jack Johnson sails. “TIT am anxious to have Ketchel keep on the trail of Johnson.” said Britt. “By following him he won't Bet a chance to crawl out of his match with Stanley. In every theater that we appear on the Other side we will keep repeatedly announcing from tho stage that Johnson and Ketchel are to battle for the heavyweight championship title on Oct. 12 in California.”’ With Ketche] having this § an- announcement made daily and Sam Langford claiming at every per- formance that Johnson crawled out of his match with him at the Na- tional Sporting Club of London on May 24, Johnson will certainly be

in hot water continually.

with Johnson’s confidence in his abil- ity is borne out by the fact that he absolutely refused to sign for a bout longer than 20 rounds. He knows he can go that distance in good shape— barring the chance or a hard beating, and that’s something he has escaped so far. He doesn't dare try the 45- round distance. Curious thing, that, for a champion. Where would Johnson have figured in the finish-fight days? Champion Has Weak Spot, Johnson must be afraid of some weak point In his make-up. Is it his stom- ach? He has been lapping up a lot of

wine lately. And even three years ago he showed a strong aversion to being hit “in the cellar.’’ When Joe Jeanette first began fighting he was matched to go four rounds with Johnson. Johnson took on two. black fighters that night. It was ip a Phil- adelphia club. Johnson put the first man out in a round. Jeanette was brought out for the slaughter. For three rounds Johnson hit him where he pleased. At the beginning of the fourth Jeanette landed a hard swipe in the big fellow’s stomach. Johnson suddenly turned tail and galloped around and around the ring with the novice in pur- suit. He didn’t stop running until the end of the bout. Few people know why to wear that old cowboy around town. I Ketchel likes outfit of his have a suspicion that it is because of the boots. The old- style cowpunchers’ boots, such as Ketchel wears, have very high heels. Naturally this makes Ketchel look like a six-footer. while in fact he is an inch or so short of the mark. When Johnson saw Ketchel yesterday-—in nose boots—he exclaimed: “My good- ness, boy, how you have grown since I saw you three years ago.” “Small dogs delight to bark and bite,”’ Ssavs the old saw. After listening to the barking of many ring dogs, and a few curs, it is a relief to note Ketch- el’s attitude toward the man he’s going to fight for a world's title. Instead of using ‘‘caustic verbiage’’ such as Ne]- son and McFarland, for instance, in- dulge in every time they meet, Ketchel jokingly advised Johnson to ‘clean up all you can before you meet me in Octo- ber.”’

Picked Up al NE-QUARTER of the crowd that () watched the Browns and Cleve- land clubs battle yesterday at- tended in order to have the honor of saying that they were present at the tirst game ever played at the great new baseball plant, and not a few out of curlosity to ascertain what changes had been made in =e park. Hedges iieatidies the fact that his hig double-deck grandstand will accom- modate. even a world’s championship crowd. But the men who go into the bleachers are the ones that Hedges will have to watch now. If he had a dou- ble-deck set of bleachers yesterday he could have used them comfortably. The crowd was out on the field behind the ropes a long time before the game started. There was the same never- ending battle with the policemen on guard at the ropes. The _ bluecoats shoved the crowd back. Those in the third, fourth and fifth rows crowded forward and the officers would be al- most carried off their feet. Benches, boards set on anything that the crowd could lay its hands on to gain a point of agdyantage were taken up long be- fore the start of the game. The pavilion was filled, but not over- crowded. The grandstand was crowded almost to its limit on the first floor the second there was only a small crowd with the exception of the boxes which were almost all filled. The seats on the second floor of the stand are said to be the most desirable; at least they cost more than those on the lower floor. Yesterday they were not. The wind was chilly and it swept through the stand with a whistle that went through almost any amount of wraps, Whether it was the chilly wind or the fact that the park is so much larg-

Baseball Fest er than last year the crowd could not seem to show the enthusiasm they dis- played last year. Even the peanut boys sat about hugging themselves to keep warm. The cheering seemed _ ,light. There seemed to be a lack of concerted noisemaking. But everybody was keenly in the numerous discussions of stands, grounds and other new features of the park. Not a few men on getting to the top of the big cement staircase that leads up to the grandstand looked about in amazement. Some had prom- ised friends that they would meet them in the grandstand. Last year this would not have been an impossibility, by any means, on an ordinary day. One look at the comparatively small structure that was the grandstand last year and a comparison with the big stand was enough to convince everyone that they might as well try to hunt for the haystack needle as to find anybody in the new park. interested the The grandstand crowd was quite a bit confused as to the most desirable seats when they reached the stand. All! of the seats -were good, which they soon ascertained. It was on the street cars going home that the real jam came. At the park everything was orderly, with the ex- ception of the crowd behind the ropes, Which, as was to be expected, waged merry war with the police. But the rush for the street cars was fierce. The cars ran one after another; but hun- dreds and hundreds had ‘to wait for no short time to get away from the park. This also was something rather new, as last year and the year before many men made it a practice to leave as soon as the eighth inning was completed, Every car was packed to its capacity for a half hour or more after the game was over.

President Endorses Seattle Contest. M. Robert Guggenheim, originator of the ocean-to-ocean contest which bears his name, was introduced to President Taft by Secretary of the Interior Bal- linger Tuesday. Mr. Guggenheim the President the Seattle contest and the relations existing between the Seattle Automobile Club and the Alaska-Yukon- Mr. Taft expressed discussed with Pacific Exposition. himself as very favorable to such a contest, giving as a reason that it had always been his hope that a transcon- tinental highway would be made and that the Guggenheim contest would do more to encourage this road building in the states through which the contest will pass than would any other form of sporting activity. Mr. Taft will press a telegraph key made out of Yukon gold which will flash the signal to Mayor McClelland, who will fire the starter’s pistol, thus sending the contestants off on their 4000-mile journey. Before leaving for Boise, Idaho, where Mr. Guggenheim will meet the path- finders in his Allen-Kingston car and escort ‘them into Seattle, he will present Mayor McClellan with a golden revolver which it is hoped that the Mayor will keep as a souvenir.

ville, HE Post-Dispatch has received re- T quests from many opera-loving readers for the publication of a short story of the Giordano opera, ‘‘Fe- dora,’”’ which is to be sung by the Lam- bardi company at the Odeon on Friday evening for the benefit of Maestro Ag- ide Jacchia, conductor of the Lambardi orchestra. In compliance with these re- quests it now publishes the story, as prepared by Sig. Jacchia himself and translated into English by Dr. J. F. Menestrina of this city. BY AGIDE JACCHIA. EDORA ROMAZOFF is a every - wealthy Russian Princess, her dowry amounting to $14,000,000, and she is engaged to marry a certain Vlad- imir Andrezevitch, who loves another woman, the wife of Loris Spanof. On the eve of Viadimir’s marriage to Fedora he is found by his friend Loris in the apartments of the latter’s wife. Loris shoots Vladimir dead and wounds his wife. He then flees from Russia and takes refuge in Paris. Fedora surmises that the murder of her betrothed was due to political mo- tives, since Viadimir was the son of the Russian General of Police, and sh: swears revenge. She assumes the char- acter of a police spy, and soon ob- tains clews indicating that Loris was the ‘assassin. She goes to Paris, pur- chases a beautiful mansion, and gives a grand soiree. Loris is among the invited guests. | Fedora Bewitches and Betrays Loris. During the evening Fedora meets Lo- ris and, by her bewitching ways, suc- ceeds in winning his love. He becomes confidential and finally divulges to her that it was he who killed Vladimir. Fe- dora would like to know the particu- lars then and there, but Loris refusés to be more explicit, stating that it was neither the proper time nor place to make such a revelation, but she lis anxious to have the assassin in her power and insists upon a meeting one hour after her guests of the evening have departed. Suddenly the unexpected news of an attempt upon the life of the Czar is announced and Fedora’s guests take their hurried leave. She immediately summons the Chief of Police, tells him o* Loris’ confession, and orders a secret report sent to Gen. Zarinski to insure Ioris’ arrest should he return to keep his appointment with her. Love Bora Under Shadew of Tragedy. Loris is prompt in keeping this ap- pointment. Fedora openly charges him With being a Nihilist and the assassin cf Viadimir, but Loris, denying that he slew Vladimir from political mo- tives, tells Fedora the entire truth, showing her, in proof, letters tn which Viadimir assured Loris’ wife of his love for her, adding tnat he did not love Fedora but was marrying her only for her millions. Loris’ story changes Fedora’s senti- ments from those of revengeful hatred to» compassion and, later, to love, and she now deplores the fact that she has informed the police of his guilt as the murderer of Viadimir, wishing to save her new lover trom the police, yet without telling him of her having be- trayed him to them, she plans a suc- cessful escape to Switzerland. There they are living together in the greatest happiness when some friends of Loris’, learning that Fedora, as a@ spy, had named him to the police as Viadimir’s assassin, tell him that he was betrayed by a woman, giving him the name by which she signed her secret reports. The Story’s Intensely Dramatic Close. In one of these reports she had ac- cused Valerian Spanoff, brother of Lo- ris, of certain political offenses, and he Was arrested and placed in a fortress rear the river Neva. During .the night the river overflows, floods the prisons, and the brother is drowned. All this reaches the ears of Loris, who is deep- ly grieved. fedora begs for forgive- ress for the woman who is the cause of his brother's death, but without telling [him that it was she - Her insistence, | » however, arouses his suepicion and, dur- ing the dialogue, he discovers that she is the guilty woman, the spy who be- trayed him to the police and who caused bis brother's arrest and death. Upon making this discovery Loris rushes upon Fedora and grasps, her by the throat to strangle her, but she has anticipated him by swallowing pol- She flings herself, dying, at his

JEFFERSON CITY, April 15.—Senator Krone (Rep.) of St. Louis told a Post- Dispatch reporter today that the new municipal courts bill will be passed by the Senate if it is changed so as to pro- vide for the election at large of all justices of the peace in St. Louis, each Justice to have complete jurisdiction over minor civil and criminal cases. This amendment, Senator Krone says, ex- cludes that feature of the original bill

to me they are nearer the people. At the same time, I am willing to indorse this reform if the sentiment of the peo- ple is really. for it.’’ Senators Prendegast and Anderson also are undecided, while Senator Me- thudy probably will be against it. ‘“‘The bill as originally drawn was cer- tainly unconstitutional,’’ said Senator Kinney. ‘I have not studied the new bill, and I want it understood that I am not standing out against it. There were some people who fought the other bill who should have kept away from Jefferson City.’’ Opinions of Committee Members. Here is what members of the Senate Committee on Criminal Jurisdiction whe considered the new bill say about it: Senator Fields, Linn County: peg disposed to favor the new mim cipal courts bill. It seems St. Lowfs’ has had a great deal of trouble with its justjces’ courts. I am in favor of doing anything that will help the cause of justice in St. Louis or any other city of the State.

If the senators from St. Louis object to the bill, I don't think it would be consistent for those outside of St. Louis to indorse it. Senator Humphrey: I am not fa- miliar enough with the merits of the new municipal courts bill to express an opinion. I did not attend the meeting at which it was decided to report the bill favorably. Senator Dowell: It looks like a zood bill and if St. Louis wants such a judicial system it ought to have it. It seems to me that the St. Louis senators should reflect the wishes of St. Louis in the matter. A local bill is usually weighed by the sup- port it receives from its local repre- sentatives.

STOCK MARKET IRREGULAR AT Tht CLOSING Activity in Prominent Issues the Feature; Lead 134 Points Higher. NEW a 15, 12:30 p. m. Fwices fell off considerably during the forenoon hours. Only a very few of the prominent issues scored gains, among them being Smelting %, Lead 1 and Reading %. Steel preferred, People’s Gas and Atchison 1\.:re unchanged. Anaconda, Amalgamated Copper and Steel common declined % each, Colorado Frel and Iron % and Consolidated Gas 1. Canadian Pacific, St. Paul, Reading, Rock Island preferred lost % each; B. & O., B. R. T., C. & O. and Pennsyl- vania % each; New York Central, Wa- bash preferred and Southern Pacific % each. Northern Pacific receded %, Missouri Pacific, Great Northern and Union Pa- cific 1 each; Illinois Central %, D. & R. G. 1%, and Delaware & Hudson 2 points. Profit taking was chiefly responsible for the declines. Trading was the liveliest during the current week, the total sales to noon aggregating 538,000 shares. A majority of listed stocks opened higher on Wall street today. The changes from yesterday’s closing were generally of a small fractional charac- ter, and in no instance did the variation reach as much as a point. The average was about 4%.

Elizabeth, who is 19, under- went vague and various terrors to reach her suitor’s home, but persistency pre- vailed and she got there at 1 a. m. Thunsday. Six months ago Stantsch’s wife died.
