The sho.-ting of Clarence N. Jones in ' the office of th» Commonwealth Milling Co. was described in detail by Herman A. Kretschmar, Jones’ slayer and for- associate, on the witness court Thursday, where Kretschmar was on trial for mur- der. He was asked to give his movements in detail and he told of leaving his room at 1718 North Grand avenue, getting a “shine” and riding on a car to the mill and of getting a Scotch highball in a saloon while waiting to transfer from a Grand to a Bellefontaine car. That was the only arink he had that day, he said. “JT intended to see Jones and ask him about letters he had written,’ he: said. “» the letters he said he had bought ¢ eontrolling interest on the statement ef myself and Edwin Gloor, vice-presi- dent of the company, that the business would increase. Instead of that, «e wrote, it had decreased. “I was not angry but I wanted that get right. I expected to go East and didn’t want people there to think I was @ liar. I didn’t realize I had my re- wolver with me and had no intention of Killing Mr. ~- ones.” He wanted to tell why he had carried thé weapon “every day for 18 months,”’ but the State objected. ‘ Peddler Misht Tave Saved Him. He told of meeting Gloor at the mills and asking him what he intended doing about the letters. Then he went in to ses Jones. The witness said: “ ‘What do you mean by writing these letters about me?’ I sad to him, and he replied that there were things that were damaging to me and would make people in the East think I was a liar. Jones - no further reply. »ink salesman came in and I *o get a drink of water. | E | ep d eis my are ma the 18 to oR ones to thin t over. ~n had remained 30 sec- men ask $8.00 a. would have hap-

Viola Holschbach, who is 6 years old, will have a hard time figuring out Whether at any given hour she belongs to her father or to her mother. At present she is in custody of her moth- er, Mrs. Nellie Holschbach, who lives with Viola's maternal grandmother at 4023 South Grand avenue. Viola’s father, John P. Holschbach, obtained an order Thursday from Judge Hitchcock dividing the custody of the child. The father tried to get posses- sion of Viola altogether on a writ of habeas corpus, but the Court did not so rule. According to the decree of court, Viola is to be with her father every Sunday between April 1 and October 1, from 9 a. m. to 8 p. m., and on the other Sundays in the year from 9 a. m, to 7 p.m. She is to spend every Thursday in the year from 2 p. m. to 8 p. m. with her father. Beginning May 1, Viola is to be in her father’s custody every third Saturday from 2 p. m. to 8 p. m. Mrs. Holschbach was granted a di- vorce and custody of the child in the Circuit Court some time ago, but the Court of Appeals reversed the case and Viola's parents still are husband and wife.

WOMAN'S IDENTIFICATION OF — SUPPOSED THIEVES IS WRONG John Fitzgibbons and William Biggs, who were arrested Wednesday morning on suspicion of being pickpock- ets, were released by Police Captain Young late in the afternoon because of erroneous identification. The young men were pionted out by lfrs. George Seibel of Manchester, Mo., as passengers who had jostled her husband on a Market street car. Mr. and Mrs. Seibel boarded the car at Union Station to go downtown. Seibel exclaimed that he had been robbed of $32. Mrs. Seibel saw two men get off iurriedly and she and her husband alighted with the intention of following tl.em. Fitzgibbons and Biggs, walking to- gether at FE.fteenth and Chestnut streets, were arrested at the instance of Mrs. Seibel. A published report that the police found $35 in Fitzgibbons’ ;}ocket was an error. “T had a nickel,’ said Fitzgibbons to the Post-Dispatch, “and Biggs had a quarter.

THE IMPOSTER SCORES SUCCESS “The Imposter,’’ a four-act drama, written and staged by M. D. Conroy, in which Conroy took the part of the Bishop of London, was presented by the Maryville Dramatic Club at the club's hall. Meramec street and Compton avenue, last night. A crowded house attested to the popu- larity of the members of the club, but the play merited their attendance. Con- roy was given almost an ovation at the end of the feurth act. The cast called for some really clever acting and Miss Anna M. Boever in the part of Helen Trent and Miss Lena Dierker as Margaret Faircliffe, were especially effective and their work was keenly ap- preciated by the audience. The club has more than 70 members and, as the result of the success last night, it js probable the cast for last night will be persuaded to again stage “The Im- poster’’ at some date in the near fu-

PUBLIC IS USING LESS

Records Since 1904 Show Steady Falling Off in Amount Consumed.

The records of the Water Rates office, showing an enormous decrease in the consumption of water by big indus- trial and public service corporations, partly explain why St. Louis will use 8,212,000,000 gallons less water in 1909 than fn 1904. It is estimated on a city directory basis that the population of St. Louls has increased at least 50,00u since 194—World’s Fair year—and Wa- ter Commissioner Adkins says he can- not understand why the consumption of water should not h ve been correspond- ingly increased, , The average daily consumption of wa- ter in 1904 was 77,700,000 gallons. In 1908 it was but 68,900,000 gallons, a decrease of 8,800,000 gallons a day. Water Commissioner alarmed by the steady tren. toward “dryness” in St. Louis. An ‘examina- tion of the records of the Water Rates office by a Post-Dispatch reporter shows that many of the large industrial con- cerns have reduced their water suppiy by many millions of gallons since 1904, and that some former big consumers have ceased to use city water. Lighting Concerns Tap River. In 1904 the Union Electric Light and Power Co. consumed 16.000,000 gallons of city water, and in 1909 it will take but 3,000,000 gallons. ‘uhe company’s new plant at the foot of Ashley street is built on the bank of the Mississippi, from which practically all its water sup- ply is taken. .The city cannot force the company to use water from the munici- pal plant, as it has riparian rights en- titling it to use water from the river. The Laclede Gas Light Co., which used 32,000,000 gallons in 1904, has not used any city water in the last three months. It is also getting its water direct from the Mississippi. The American Car and Foundry Co.’s consumption, on account of the finan- cial depression, decreased from 80,(00,- 000 gallons in 1904 to 8,000,000: the Scul- lin-Gallagher Steel Co. has reduced its consumption from 64,000,000 in 1904 to 8,- 000,000, and the St. Louis Union Packing Co., which consumed 3,000,000 gallons in 1904, is defunct. The decrease in consumption on the part of these five corporations is 176,000,- 000 gallons a year, leaving still unac- counted for 3,036,000,000 gallons. The hundreds of other large consumers prob ably have decreased their usage in pro portion, which offers an explanation why the consumption has fallen off an average of 8.8 million gallons a day. There has been a steady decrease in the general consumption of water since 1944. In 195 the consumption was 72.1 million gallons a day; in 1906, 70.4 mil- lion, in 1907 69.2 millron and in 1908 68.9 million. The financial depression would not ex- plain the decrease in consumption in 1905, 1906 and 1907, w..en business was flourishing. The World’s Fair, in 1904, drew heavily on the water supply, as vast quantities were used for the cas- cades and other Exposition purposes. The abnormal consumption of water in 1904 and the business depression of 1905 are important factors, however, in mak- ing the computation. The water was clarified in 1904 and clear water was a novelty and was liberally used to con- vince visitors who had been here in the muddy water days that St. Louis had at last become a clear-water city. Notwithstanding the local option and the prohibition wave, the breweries are using more water than ever before. Most of them have recently added ice Plants, and this may account for thei increased use of water. Beer drinkers say the foamy fluid is no weaker than in the old days. Many Bathrooms Unused. The water rates records show that 742 fewer residences are served with city water in 1909 than in 1908. There has also been a rigid enforcement of regula- tions against the waste of water, but more streets cnd lawns are sprinkled, and the Fire Department uses more water than ever before. , The consumption of water in St. Louis grew from 12,900,000 gallons a day in 1/1 to 6,900,000 ga-lons in 1901. It was expected that the consumption would be 30,000,000,000 gallons » year by 1910, but ‘tthe consumption will fall 5,000,000.000 short of that amount in 1909 unless there is an unexpected demand for water dur- ing the remaining eigh* nonths of this year. Unless there is a big increase in the consumption, Water Commissioner Ad. kings sees no immediate necessity of in- creasing the capacity of the waterworks. He gays he will leave it to Mayor Kreis. mann to decide whether the facilities are ample to supply the demand for the immediate future. Adkins is

OPERA COMPANY GETS $150,000 NEW YORK, April 2.—The Metro- politan Opera Company, successor of the Conried Metropolitan Opera Com- pany, formed to back the impresario when he took control of the Metropoli- tan, will benefit to the amount of $150,- (0 by the death of Heinrich Conried. The $150,000 is the amount of an in- surance policy which the members of the company had the foresight to take out on the director’s life when he was selected to control the destinies of the epera house. Several members of the company have been changed since then, but the premium has always been paid, even in the last year, when Mr. Conried had nothing to do with the company.

April 23.—One fireman was killed, another is missing and eight were seriously injured in a fire which destroyed Elevator B of the lUlinois Central Railroad here early today. The fire, which was discovered at the height of a violent electric storm, completely consumed the elevator and its contents. The loss is estimated at $1,000,000. The elevator contained $700,000 worth of grain, including 395,000 bushels of wheat owned by Bartlett, Patten & Co., leadérs of the bull campaign in the lat- ter cereal. The grain is fully insured. The elevator is owned by the Illinois Central Railroad and is insured in its private insurance fund. Elevator ‘“‘A,’’ nearby, containing 44,- 000 bushels of wheat, also owned by Bartlett, Patten & Co., was damaged by water, but the loss is said to be not large. The blaze, fanned by a gale, which swept in from the lake, spread to the Illinois Central docks, to train sheds and freight cars, and it was with great difficulty that the firemen checked the See EN tte CBI 8 5 " racy t, Sadi om .

ewig to health and her ad- ¥ice is CHICAGO, April 29.—The voice of sci- ence speaking from the grave has come to Dr. G. A. Dorsey of the Field Colum- bian Museum, in a letter from Dr. Wil- liam Jones, written a few days Ddefore his death at the hands of headhunters in Luzon. The letter is full of interesting com- ment on the language, traits and dis- credited gods of the natives, who call their deities ‘‘a bad lot.” “The Ilongot is uncomplimentary to- ward his gods,”” said Dr. Jones. ‘‘He will go through the list with you, tell- ing what good points and what bad points this and that god has, and at the end he will curse the whole lot, and say they are no good. A rather interest- ing attitude this, psychologically.” Of the Negritos, Dr. Jones wrote: “They eat bugs, worms, snakes, roots, nuts, the game they kill and the rice, carrots, cane and fruits which they trade for. The men go in a bark cloth clout and the women in a short bark cloth skirt. They scar the body with a knife. “They carry line tubes in their ears, in a hole through the helix. They wear armlets and wristlets of cord. Their hair is woolly and kinky and of a russet brown. They are shy and timid, given te giggling and nonsense, and have as little regard for the truth as the Ilon- got or Filipino.’

ABOUT THE INITIATIVE. Senator Methudy is quoted as saying that the initiative is unconstitutional. We don’t know whether it is or not, but we do know that it is unsportsmanlike of Senator Methudy to say it isn’t. If he were a neutral in the war be- tween the wets and drys, he could say it with perfect grace; but he was with the wets when they voted for it, un- dreaming that it was a trap set for them by the Anti-Saloon League. Wet and dry, we all laughed at the time. It was a coup, and a sportsman outwitted abides the result. If Senator Methudy had detected the trick, sounded the alarm, worked against it tooth and toenail, and rallied the wets to the polls to oppose it, the inttiative would never have carried.

THE FAMILY OF SHAMS.

Foolish Poses Which We Find in Our Friends the Post-Dispatch Described for

By HENRIETTA CROSSMAN. HAMS are common to every cil- S mate and geographical section. They abound and flourish more persistently, however, in the great cen- ters of population. There is little reason to be surprised at learningthatyour next door neighbor is not exactly what he pretends to be; he may have courteous- ly concealed the fact that he found you Out years ago. Neither of you has done or would do anything specifically pro- hibited by the legal statutes, and your email deceits may have injured nobody but yourselves. But even though you mislead no one, you are eligible to mem- bership in the association of ‘‘Shams.”’ Do not let thig worry you. You have lots of company. While shamming ts not by any means confined to women, it seems to be more generally practiced by them, especially for inconsequent purposes, than by their brothers or husbands. Every peculiar cult numbers hundreds of female shams among its devotees. The sham who professes to abhor all but classical music is prevalent every- where. She is inevitably found out. Of the same family is the sham who “just can’t bear trashy books, and is one day discovered with her hair in curl papers, a box of caramels at her left hand, a paper-backed novel in her right, wearing a genuine air of intense interest, There is the sham young lady who announces that she cannot abide crowd- ed street cars, when a man friend has * forms of shams. Sooner or later they are classified and tabulated and al)- lowed to continue shamming without in- terruption. There are others whose deceits cause pain and injury to themselves as well ag to those they meet. Some untoward sprite of ignorance and stubbornness combined prevents them seeing their ac- \tions in the right Nght and foregoing them. Of such class is the woman yearning for social recognition who ignores her tradesmen’'s bills to live in a fashion far beyond her income. The woman who must spend a month at the most expensive resort if she is to enjoy herself, especially if that trip is beyond her means, is a sham pure and simple. It is possible for any wom- an to content herself with comforts and let someone else have the luxuries. There are shams in her set who pre- tend the greatest amount of devotion to their homes and families, but “‘take it out in talk.”” Shams, every one. The classification ‘‘sham’’ includes that woman who openly boasts of her freedom of trivial conventions and is the first to be shocked by and to repeat scandal that is told her. There are shams who take advantage of a stranger’s ignorance to set them- selves upon pedestals as to descend- ants of especially ancient and honored families, the heir to great Yortunes, and who take unto themselves other credits and honors which affect no one but ac- : zs Shel ae be F BF pete Bet ei es cs “A ; a ‘ - a , ae .

Cache so wild that a timber wolf can’t

Sitting once in the Three Horses at Medicine Bend, Rebstock had talked with Whispering Smith. ‘I used to have a good time,’’ he growled. “When I was rustling a little bunch of steers, just a small bunch all by myself, and hadn’t a cent in the world, no place to sleep aid nothing to eat, I had a good time. Now I have to keep my money in the bank; that ain’t pleasant—you krow that. Every man that brings a bunch of cattle across Deep Creek has stole ’em, and expects me to buy ’em or lend him money. I'm busy with in- spectors all the time, deviling with brands, standing off the stock associa- tlon and all kinds of trouble. I’ve got too many cows, too much money. m afraid somebody will shoot me if I go to sleep. or poison me if I take a drink. Whispering Smith, I'd like to give you a half-interest in my business. That’s on the square. You're a young man, and handy; it wouldn’t cost you a cent, and you can have half of the whole shooting match if you'll cross Deep Creek and help me run the gang.”’ Such was Rebstock free from anxiety and in a confidential moment. Under complish no good purpose. There are shams who decry Balzac as unfit literature; shams who deny them- selves chewing gum during Lent; shams who have nervous prostration unless the wall paper harmonizes with their com- plexion. And concerning complexions and figures, speaking of shams in the same breath, there are thous—, But there is no need to mention those. In one way, being a sham differs from a great many othe€ conditions. It is not possible to be one and not know it. —r —, SYNOPSIS OF PRECEDING Supt.

CHAPTER XXVI. Williams Cache. D BANKS had been recalled before - daybreak from the middle pass. Two of the men wanted were now known to have crossed the creek, which “If you wiil take your best two men, said Whispering Smith, sitting down with Banks at breakfast, ‘‘and strike straight for Canadian Pass to while Kennedy and Bob Scott watch Deep Creek. The boy gives a good de- Did I tell you how we picked up the Magpies. They shot a skinned the brand. It hastened the ban- were all seated. Great luck, wasn’t it? One of the party crossed the Goose River at American Fork, and Brill Young and Reed followed him. Four came through the Mission Mountains; tnat is a cinch and they are in the Cache—and if they get out it is our fault personally, Ed, and not the Lord’s.” Williams Cache lies in the form of a great horn, with a narrow entrance at the lower end known as the Door, and a rock fissure at the upper end leading into Canadian Pass; but this fissure is so narrow that a man with a rifle could withstand a regiment. For 10 miles east and west rise the granite walls of the Mission range, broken nowhere save by the formation known as the Cache. Even this does not penetrate the range; it is a pocket, and runs not over half- way into it and out again. But no man really knows the Cache; the most that may be said is that the main valley is known, and it is known as the rough- est mountain fissure between the Span- ish sinks and the Mantrap country. Williams Cache Hes between walls 2000 feet high; and within it is a small labriyrnth of canyons. A generation ago when Medicine Bend for one winter was the terminus of the overland railroad, vigilantes mercilessly cleaned out the town, and the few outiaws that escaped the shotgun and the noose at Medicine Bend found refuge in a far-away and pressure he was like all men, differ- ent. Whispering Smith had acquaintance even in the Cache, and after a little careful reconnoitering he found a crip- pled-up thief, driving a mileh cow down the Cache, who was willing to take a message to the boss. Whispering Smith gave his instructions explicitly, facing the messenger, as the two sat in their saddles, with an importunate eye. ‘“‘Say to Rebstock ex- actly these words,”’ he insisted. ‘This is from Whispering Smith: I want Du Sang. He killed a friend of mine last night at Mission Springs. I happened to be near there and know he rode in last night. He can’t get out; the Ca- nadian is plugged. I won't stand for the killing; and it is Du Sang or a clean- up in the Cache all around, and then I'll get Du Sang anyway. Regards.” Riding circumspectly in and about the entrance to the Cache, the party waited an hour for an answer. When the an- swer came, it was unsatisfactory. Reb- stock declined to appear upon so trivial a matter, and Whispering Smith refused to specify a further grievance. More parley and stronger messages were nec- essary to stir the Deep Creek monarch, but at last he sent word asking Whis- pering Smith to come to his cabin ac- companied = by Kennedy. The two railroad men rode up the canyon together. ‘‘And now I will show you a lean and hungry thief grown mon- strous and miserly, Farrell,’’ said Whis- pering Smith. At the head of the short pocket be- tween two sheer granite walls they saw Rebstock’s weather-beaten cabin, and he stood in front of it smoking. He looked moodily at his visitors out of eyes buried between rolls of fat. Whis- pering Smith was a little harsh as the two shook hands, but he dismounted and followed Rebstock into the house. “What are you so high and mighty about?” he demanded, throwing his hat on the table near which Rebstock had, seated himself. ‘““‘Why don't you come out when I send a man to you, or send word what you will do? What have you got to kick about? Haven’t you been treated right?’’ Peing in no position to complain, but shrewdly aware that much unpleasant- ness was in the wind, Rebstock beat about the bush. He had had rheuma- tism; he couldn’t ride; he had been tn bed three- weeks and hadn't seen Du Sang for three months. “You ain't chasing

“I Know You for a Fat Rascal!’’ think, if I wanted you, I would send a message for you to come out and meet me? Not on your life! When I want you I'll come to your shack and drag you out by the hair of your head. Sit down!’’ roared Whispering Smith. Rebstock, who w fared at least 275 pounds, had lifted Mimself up to glare and swear freely. Now he dropped angrily back into’his chair. ‘‘Well, who do you want?” he bellowed in kind. A smile softened’ the asperity of the railroad man’s face. ‘That's a fair question and I give you a straight an- Im not bluffing; I want Du Rebstock squirmed. He swore with shortened breath that he knew nothing about Du Sung; that Du Sang had stolen his cattle; that hanging was too good for him; that he would join any posse in searching for htm, and that he had not seen him for three months. “likely enough,’ assented Whispering Smith, “but this is wasting time. He rode in here last night after killing old Dan Baggs. Your estimable nephew, Barney, is with him, and Karg is with him, and I want them, but, in especial and particular, I want Du Sang.”’ Rebstock denied, protested, wheezed and storm2d, but Whispering Smith was immovable. He would not stir from the Cache upon any promises. Rebstock of- fered to surrender anyone else in the Cache—hinted strongl¥ at two different men for whom handsome rewards were out; but every compromise suggested was met with the same good-natured words: “IJ want Du Sang.’”’ At last the smile changed on Whisper- ing Smith's face. It lghtea his eyes still, but with a different expression. ‘See here,. Rebstock, you and I have always got along, haven't we? I've no desire to crowd any man to the wall that is a man. Now, I am going to tell you the simple truth. Du Sang has got you scared to death. That man is a faker, Rebstock.

Their pitchers were too fast and their catch- ers too tricky for the Tigers to play their usual wild and daring game.

| HYDE PARKS GET | ARTHUR BADER Sunny Jim Hackett Picks Up An- other Star for His Trolley League Club.

That the Hyde Park Baseball Club of the old Mfssouri-Iilinols Trolly League is going to wmrove one of the strongest minor league teams that ever played in St. Louis before long was shown by the fact that last night Ar- thur Bader signed a contract to play with the nine for the remainder of the season. Bader is a strong player and was with the ~hicago White Sox on the trip to California. He has played profes- sional ball for several years and was under contract to Des Moines, but re- fused to join that team. Of course if he gets a tempting offer he will be at liberty at any time to leave the Hyde Parks. Bader will in all probability be played in the outfield Sunday in the game with the Reppies at Kulage Park, although his regular position is at short. The Hyde Parks have a big following and if the club does not win the Trolley League pennant there will be a sadly disappointed bunch. Last Sunday the team’s friends had a drum corps out to help the team defeat the Funstens. For Sunday a brass band of 12 pieces has been engaged to help chee the team along to victory over the Repples. The Repples are also going to bring quite a crowd out to Kulage Park with them and the game should be a good one, as the Hyde Parks have won two gexmes and lost none.so far this season. - VARSITY NINES BATTLE AGAIN The C. B. C. and 8t. Louis University baseball nines will meet in the second of a series of three games on the college campus this afternoon and as the var- sity nine won the first game the con- test this afternoon should be a well- played and exciting one. The college team played the poorest baseball they have shown so far this season in the first game with St. Louis, making 10 errors in afl behind Kinderry. This was mainly because of over- anxiety to win, as the wearers of the purple and gold are more anxious to lower the colors of the varsity nine than to win any other series on their schedule. oc me Gee

Dode Criss’ return to St. Louis, as announced in yesterday’s Post-Dispatch, was probably the best received bit of baseball information the fans have had in connection with the Browns this sea- son. Criss was a hard man to find yes- terday. He is as secretive 4S @ gopher and hid away in a place across from Mike Kavanaugh’s Grand avenue buffet yesterday afternoon. He spent all the day. trying to find a suitable boarding place and was not to be found. Jack Bliss of the Cardinals was one of the few who saw him. Over the telephone Criss refused to state what salary arrangements he had niade with Manager McAleer for his re- turn, but said they had reached an agreement. Criss hardly received the $400 he was after, and his appearance here at this time may have something to do with the fact that the Nationa] Commission’s blacklist against holdout players goes into effect May 1. Criss says he has been working all winter in Texas and is in fine physical condition. He has been practicing pitch- ing all winter and thinks he has at last obtained the coveted control, the want of which cost him success in the pitch- et’s box last season. With Lou Criger to take him in hand and steatly him, Criss ought to make an effective twirler. If he should pan out in this regard, with his terrific hitting ability he will be an asset of no mean proportions to the Browns. Lou Criger May Make a Great Pitcher of Criss

FAMOUS HARNESS HORSES TO MEET AT ST. PAUL ST. PAUL, Minn., April 2%—Dan Patch, the famous Minnesota pacer, has been matched against Minor Heir for the opening of the Minnesota State Fair on Sept. 6, and one of the greatest races the State has ever seen is looked for. The race falls on Labor Day and it is expected that 250,000 people will witness the contest between two of the most farnous horses in America.

OU dont have to have an arm to va pitch baseball. Clark Griffith used to win with his head, while other twirlers employ change of pace. It seems rather curious that suddenly all the hold-out men in the big leagues relent and join their clubs— Evers, Walsh, Criss and others. But it ign’t curious—just painful. Remember that the National Commission blacklist against hold-out men, with a three-year penalty, goes into effect May l. Per- haps that was the C Q D that called Dode Criss to the front. One of the M. A. C. Marathon entries gives promise of making the race a hot one. His name is Karl Warma. Tem- perature always plays a big part in the local Marathon. For example, Domenico (not Demetrius, Mollie O’Connor) Ciza- nelli, is a hot tip. Jack Crooks is going back to baseball. He will play second base for the fat men’s team, which will perform for charity, soon. The Humane Society has not as yet interfered with the prospec- tive contest. The Columbus team has released Pitcher Jack Taylor. Some philanthropic 'McAleer’s flock.

@ Weighing up to $55 expectations for $40 ‘‘is a way we have.” : @ This is a condition ° broneht about by the ‘‘lately lamented’’ -— the panic.

club should be found that would keep Taylor. Perhaps incarcerate is a bet- ter word than keep. When at large Taylor is a menace to himself and the baseball community. He has that well- known horse trouble—he interferes. Eastern racing is again on. One of the surest signs is the famillar head- line, ‘‘De Mund Beaten.” Queer how a lemon never gets sweet, even though it originally cost Rainey $45,000. Dode Criss ought to be the flower of At least he comes from Blossom Prairie. The report that Shad Link threw three men in 15 minutes, last night, has rather a fishy sound. But then, Joe Walsh makes no bones about it. “Babe” Lindsey is having a hard time figuring out his St. Louis University football team for next season. The fac- ulty has abolished the recruiting sta- tion and volunteers are scarce. That Boston team is plainly not of the insectivorous sort. At least they were unable to swallow “Bugs’’ Ray- mond yesterday. Alphonse Clarke finally insisted on giving a game to Gaston Bresnahan. The Irish moss market !{s very bull- ish since the reports of yesterday. Ed Walsh is back in the game and Harry Howell threatens to be able to pitch shortly. Manager Sullivan thinks that with Ed Walsh back on duty he can win the American League pennant. He is not buying any options on the future, how- ever. The absence of Hateh from the M. A. C. Marathon race has nothing to do with the prevailing price of eggs. The New York Highlanders are pro- hibited from using profanity. But they employ a player named Demmitt, which is coming perilously close. Never do to shout his name in an umpire’s ear at a critical time. If those Cardinals can keep on slam- ming the ball they will certainly have a chance to rise out of mediocrity. Jus: think of it—they have driven a pitcher to the bench in every game but one since their return to St. Louis. The only pitcher to hold out against the club was Miner Brown and he had a shaky time of it during the game. As long as the club can bat the ball there is at least a chance that some- thing will happen. No three shut-outs in succession for Roger's team, What has become of that “return to the ring’’ engineered by James J. Jeff- ries and others? Certainly the affair was a joke. Jeffries hedged himself be- hind 10 months of theatrical conditions and added that when his stage options were all through he would need eight months in which to get In condition. The play is most palpably a transpar- ent effort to retain popular favor at the cost of only a few words.

are going to work their way the near future. Today the team rests and tomorrow the Cincinnati Reds open up a four- game series at League Park. It is pos- sible that Bresnahan will at least be able to get out on the coaching lines tomorrow. All season the Cardinals have been slugging the ball hard, but in the Pitts- burg series the team certainly gave a fine demonstration of how to hit and yet lose games. In the first two games the team did not get any of the best of the breaks. If they had they would have won. At that there was some poor fielding connected with the loss of these two battles. But in each of the two games the Cardinals had the satis- faction of making Fred Clarke hang out a C Q D call for the relief of his first choice for pitcher. Monday it was Phil- lipe whom the Cardinals eventually forced to the bench. Victor Willis. Yesterday Maddox, who started off, was relieved by Leifield, who was also unable to stop the volley of base hits and Wacker was sent for. Wacker, too, had his troubles. The Car- dinals simply had their batting gar- ments on and any kind of pitching laoked easy. Thirteen hits as the sum total of that which Bresnahan’s men did to Clarke’s trio of flingers. Pirates Piay Loose. Then, too, the Pittsburg team gave a good exhibition of how the game ought not to be played. On one play alone there were two wild throws. W. Miller, out in center fleld, seéms to be an adept at falling down when running after a fly ball. Twice did he make connections with the ground yesterday. It is safe wagering that in the next few days Clarke will see to it that his spikes cre sharpened. Fred Beebe pitched for the Cardinals. At the start of the game Beebe seemed very shaky. He did not seem to have good control and it seemed that it was only a matter of time until the Pirates would get to him and drive In a bunch of runs. But the Cardinals kept peg- ging along driving in runs, while ieebe settled down and continued to dish out ciphers. It was only in the second and ninth innings that Pittsburg was able to score and a really funny muff of the easiest kind of a fly in the ninth was what helped the Pittsburg club to get their one run in their final session at bat. It was good baseball that gave them their first run in the second, when Wagner was passed to first, stole sec- ond and scored on J. Miller’s attempted sacrifice, Beebe making a hurry up throw to first which hit the ground and Koney was only partially able to stop the ball.

SLEEPS 9 HOURS AND HIKES WEST Edward Payson Weston Con- tinues Transcontinental Jour- ney at 6:10 A. M. GOING TO SEE HADLEY Gulps Coffee, His Only Stim- ulant, With Breakfast of Eggs and Oatmeal. Edward Payson Weston walked out of St. Louis by way of Easton avenue, Thursday morning. He started from the Missouri Athletic Club, where he spent the night, at 6:10 a. m. After walking through St. Charles County, he will strike the Missouri Pacific tracks for Kansas City. He will make a brief pause at Jefferson City to see Gov. Hadley. The 7l-year-old pedestrian slept nine hours, arising at & o’clock. He went across the street to a neighboring res- taurant, where he ate his customary preakfast of poached eggs and oatmeal, with generous gulps of coffee. Coffee, by the way, is Weston’s sole stimulative drink. The Gotham-to- Frisco walker looks upon all intoxicat- ing beverages as born of the blackest pits of perdition. He hates liquor with the vehemence of Carrie Nation. Alco- hol, he holds, impairs he vitality. A ‘‘boozer’’ never can be a walker, says Weston. Has Walked 1364 Miles. Weston has completed 1364 miles of hig 4300-mile walk across the continent when he reached St. Louis, having left New York March 15 with designs on San Francisco by July 8 Leaving out Sundays, this gives him 10 walking days to do his task. Weston has a peculiar stride for a long-distance walker of international fame. His gait is hardly more than a shuffle and his stride is about half the length of the stride of the average man. But what was impressed on a Post- Dispatch reporter wno walked with him for several miles was that his stride never changed and the pace was prac- tically the same all the time—except when he was going uphill. He carries a short walking stick that resembles closely a riding crop. He holds it in his right hand, always at the center. Unlike many other walkers, he swings his arms very little. For several miles before he entered East St. Louis Wednesday afternoon his left hand grasped the lapel! of his coat and he looked more as if he were out for a Sunday stroll than a transcontinental walk. Careful About His Feet. He 1s as careful about saving his feet from injury as Paderewski is about his hands. When he enterg a village or city and a crowd follows him he always asks someone to walk five feet behind him and to keep those back of him at this distance. He is afraid of having his heels stepped on and being put out of walking commission for several days. He does not care who is in front of him and elbows his way through crowds like a young man. His manager, J. C. Schinkel, who goes ahead with his clothes and meets him on the outskirts of the places where he spends ihe night, is continually in- structing him not to talk while walking. He religiously keeps to his determina- tion to cover all the way on foot and unassisted. When Ashley Scott in a big automobile went over to East §&t. Louis Wednesday afternoon to meet the famous walker and offered him a lift Weston explained that he would not so much as lean on a man’s arm while he was walking. “I’m 108 miles ahead of my schedule now,” he said, ‘‘and I don’t need any assistance. I'll] be further ahead than that when I get to San Francisco.” Laughs at Threatened Arrest, Although he was very angry at his threatened arrest in Brooklyn. IIl., by a negro marshal, after he walked into St. Louis all of his irritation had dis- appeared. “You see,” he laughed, “I write a story every night for a New York paper, and this will make the best one I have yet sent them. I never ex- perienced such a thing before. Lucky I didn’t have my revolver along or that nigger would have been a dead one.” The famous walker is a small man— about 5 feet 6 inches in height, and weights at present 140 pounds. He has lost 13 pounds on the trip. His face fs bronzed by the sun of many states, although he wears a farmer's broad- brimmed straw hat. He wears walk- ins boots of heavy make, gaiters, Eng- lish golf trousers and Norfolk coat. Before Weston entered St. Leuis yes- terday he went to a barber shop and, after a shave, his manager gave him a new white shirt that had frills at the sleeves and collar, and also a white yatching cap. He entered St. Louis without his coat and probably 2000 per- sons cheered hi mas he walked from Eads Bridge te the Missouri Athletic ub. HARRISON WILL TRY AGAIN To Run for Fifth Term as Mayor of Chicago. LOS ANGELES, Cal., April 29.—Carter Harrison, four times Mayor of Chicago, has listened to the lure of a fifth term of office, packed his belongings and next week will leave for the Windy City. He declares he will not return to this region until “I am old and have rounded out my career.” Private advices from Chicago declare Harrison is to be put in the fleld against Any and every candidate, and, after a fifth term, is to be sent to Congress. It js even hinted thet bis still loyal followers hope eventually to see him | BRIDE WAITS WHILE MAN IS LOCKED UP IN HIS OFFICE William Lange Obtains Release at 2 A. M. by Telephoning to Police Headquarters. While his bride of a week waited for him to return home, William Lange of 6083 Page boulevard, manager of the linotype machines at the Shallcross Printing Co., 419 Nortn Fourth street, was locked in the printing office up to 2 was expected to relieve Lange at mid- night and let him out with a key, had not arrived. In desperation Lange called up Police Headquarters and asked for Night Chief Gillaspy. “My name is Lange,” he said. “I'™ locked in at the Shallcross printing of fice. I could get out by descending the fire escape, but I’m afraid some police- man would see me and arrest meé for a burglar.” Gillaspy sent a patrelman to guard Lange while he climbed down the fire escape.

SOUTHERN AND UNION PACIFIC MARKET LEADE Sharp Declines in These Secur- ities Cause Sympathetic Selling Off.

NEW YORK, April 29, 12:30 p. m— The tone of the market was weak dur- ing the forenoon hours. A large ma- jority of the list receded from the opening. The losses were fractional in every instance. Anaconda, People’s Gas and the U. S&S. Steel issues lost %4 each; Amalgamated Copper %, Smelting % and Nationai Lead %. Colorado Fuel & Iron gained %, Ry. Steel Springs %, and Pressed Consolidated Gas was in« active. Among the rails Atchison, B. & O., Pennsylvania and Wabash preferred were unchanged. B. R. T. advanced % and Reading %. Canadian Pacific, C. & O., St. Paul. and M., K. & T. declined % each; Mis- suri Pacific, New York Central, Rock Island preferred and Union Pacific \% each; Great Northern %, Southern Pa- cific % afd Northern Pacific %. The volume of trading was larggr than for the corresponding period Wednes- day, the total sales to noon aggregating 401,500 shares. NEW YORK, April 29, 10 a. m.—Witn the solitary exception of Canadian Paci- fic, which opened 1% points higher, prices of stocks in the initial trading to- day were only removed from the closing figures by very small fractions. The average would be less than \% point. Amalgamated Copper and Colorado Fuel & Iron gained % each; Anaconda, Smelt- ing and People’s Gas % each, and the U. S. Steel issues were at parity. In the rails division Atchison, St. Paul and the Harriman Pacifics declined 1% each; B. R. T., Great Northern and Pennsylvania gained % each, St. Paul, Erie and Reading \% each, and B. & O. and Rock Island preferred % each. Trading in the first half hour was dull | and featureless.

Work in the harvest field and outdoor life directing the cultivation of her farm near Waterloo, IIl., Ellen Sennott McLaughlin health and strength gave Mrs. and vigor that enabled her to pass the mark. She died in St. Wednesday, 191 years and 17 days old. Mrs. McLaughlin 1808, at Wexford, Ireland, and came to century Louls was born April 1], the United States with her parents when she was 16 years old. The family set- tled in Boston and she inarried there when she was 24. Ten years later she and her husband packed their household good into a covered wagon and drove across the country to St. Louis. They had read glowing accounts of the new city on the Mississippi. The town seemed to have an advertising bureau and a live press agent in those days, she often said, for the published stories led her and her husband to believe that St. Louis was a larger and finer city than Boston. But when they reached their desti- nation they found a village in the wil- Merness. Waterloo, Ill., seemed a much more likely place, so they acquired a farm and settled there. Field Work Healthful. In 182 Mr. McLaughlin died, and the widow was left to care for six children. She not only motlered her little ones, but took her. husband’s place as farm manager. She did not plow or do the heaviest farm work, but she assisted at the chores and did Hght work in the fields. Instead of injuring her, outdoor labor made her cheeks rosy :nd gave her re- markable strength for a woman. Twenty-two years ago she moved to St. Louis and has lived at several places in the city. Her home at the time of mer death was 3528 Laclede avenue. She never was ill, and she long ago got her ‘“‘second' sight,” which = cn- abled her to sew and read with per- fect vision until two months ago. At that time her wonderful constitution seemed to give way. Ske had no dis- ease. It was merely the long-deferred breakdown of advanced age. She was not able to sit up for her birthday cekebration Easter Sunday. Leaves Four Generations, There are four children living: Mrs. Kate McDonald, 74 years old; Mrs. Mary Heffernan, 61; James McLaughlin, 71; Jeremiah McLaughlin, 63. She leaves five greatgrandchildren, four of whom are married, and six great-greatgrand- chikiren, the oldest of whom is 2 years and the youngest 4 months old. The funeral will be from the home at §:30 a. m. Friday to St. Francis Xavier's Church, thence to Calvary Cemetery.

McGrath, former Secre- tary of State of Missouri, appointed amicus curiae by Judge Williams to report on the request of the Nationa] Association of Liquor Men for permis- sion to incorporate under the benevo- lent law, has decided unfavorable to the association. The association filed a petition.

with and stating that its purposes were to give the members scientific information on the liquor business, to distribute liter- ature pertaining to their trade, and to secure laws not oppressive to the liquor traffic. Mr. McGrath recommends that the association be denied the privilege be- cause, he says, the law was not in- tended for such an organization. Of the three men who signed the petition, J. W. Shaw, as president; E. E. Schlap- privvi, secretary, and R. Adcox, treas- urer, he says he can find the name of onlty one of them in the city directory, and none is known to him., The offi- cers should be elected by the other members, and not self-constituted, he holds. The “benevolent” law, under which the incorporation is sought, is the same that made the existence of the lid clubs possible.
