MINS. MURDER CASE IN HANDS OFTHE JUROR Defendant’s Attorney Expects a Mistrial Through Inability to Agree.

FLUSHING, L. I., May 11.—The case of Peter C. Hains Jr., charged with the murder of William E. Annis, went to the jury at 12:6 p. m. today. District Attorney George A. Gregg con- cluded his argumént at 10:30 a. m., aft- er which came the charge of Justice Garretson. Gen. Hains and Mrs. Hains, the de- fendant’s parents, came into court soon after Mr. Gregg resumed his remarks. -hey did not greet the prisoner, but took their seats near the table at which he sat. Mr, McIntyre said after the jury re- tired that he had creditable informa- tion that two of the jurors were op- posed to a defense of insanity and would not vote for acquittal on that ground. The lawyer said he had re- ceived communications from friends of these two jurors to the‘effect that they had frequently expressed themselves be- fore the trial as opposing the idea of Capt. Hains’ insanity at the time of the shooting. This information. had been confirmed, Mr, McIntyre said: “I believe the jury will remain out 24 hours and then be discharged on ac- count of their inabivity to reach a ver- dict,"" Mr. McIntyre said. In the event of Capt. Hains’ acquittal on the grounds of insanity at the time he shot and killed Anrils at the Bay Side Yacht Club last August, the ques- tion of his present mental state will arise. Mr. Mcintyre has not hesitated to say that he believes his client is in- sane at the présent time. Should Justice Garretson share this belief he may issue an order for the defendant # be con- fined in a State institution for the in- sane until he is pronounced cured.

SUIT 10 FOLLOW DISAPPEARANCE OF TWO BOGARDS Henry J. Bogard Got $2000 Loan on Property Already Badly Encumbered.

‘ABSTRACT INCOMPLETE

Partner of One of the Missing Men Explains Disputed Transaction. tUnsuecessful efforts to find Henry J. Bogard, young real estate operator, who: disappeared six week after his uncle.. John J. Bogard, was reported missing, has resulted in the preparation of two suits against the real estate firm of Bogard & Stoltz. ' Henry Ittel, a retired barber, living at 3488 South Jefferson avenue, has re- tained Attorney F. W. Imsiepen to rep- resent him in an effort to recover $2900. Attorney Bernard Greensfelder repre- sents an out-of-town client, whose name he refuses to give, but who he says has a claim of $2000. Bogard Asked for Loan, According to Ittel and Attorney Im- siepen, Henry J. Bogard, about April 17, 1909, asked Ittel to loan him $2000 on property at 3520 Sidney street, --which was Bogard’s home. “Bogard told me there was an indebt- edness of $1500 on the property,’ said Ittel, “‘but he assured me this would be lifted as soon as the deed of trust evidencing my loan, was recorded. “I did not know very much about young Bogard, so’ I called on Mr. Stoltz. and asked him if it would. be a good loan. Stoltz told me he thought it would, and I gave him a check for $2000 on the South Side Bank. I did not receive a deed of trust, promissory notes nor even a receipt for my money. “Stoltz told me a few days later he had turned the money over to’ young Bogard and I soon found that Bogard had left’ immediately after getting the money. He has not been back since that time. My deed of trust was placed on record, but there was no record of the $:500 debt having been lifted. “My attorney has since found there was an indebtedness of $8000 on the prop- erty. At the most it is worth only $4500 or $6000."’ Stoltz, who has.closed the ‘Bogard & Stoltz office on Chestnut street, now has an office in the Euclid Building at McPherson and Euclid avenues. Abstract Was Furnished, “At my request,” said Stoltz, ‘“‘Henry brought me a memorandum of an ab- stract of the property. This showed an indebtedness of $1500 on it. I had him get the abstractor on the telephone and I talked to him about it. He gave me the same information over the telephone that Henry had given me. “T then turned the check over to Henry and I understand he had it cashed. He telephoned me to have the deed of trust recorded. I did so. The next day I discovered that the former debt had not been lifted. I immediately called up the Bogard home and was told Henry had gone to Jefferson (ity the night before to yisit his father. I called up his father and found that Henry was not in Jefferson City. “I then communicated with the ab- stractor, who, Henry had said, made the abstract he had given me. This man informed me he had not made an abstract for Henry and had not talked with me over the telephone. He made an abstract at my request. This shows that, including the Ittel deed of trust, there is an indebtedness of $12,000 on the property. It is worth about $4500. Many Loans on Property. “This abstract shows the following in- debtedness of record: Christian H. Prior, $3500, June 25, 1907; W. BE. Dearth, $2000, May 3%, 19%; Louis Bogard, trustee, $2500, Oct. 15, 1908: Henry Ittel, $2000, April 19, 1909, and Louis Bogard, trus- tee, $2000, April 19, 1909. “Louls Bogard is a brother of Henry. “Mr. Ittel was even better acquaint- ed with the family than I was, and if he thought there was any reason for suspecting. Heary, he should have told me."’ Wite Now With Father. _ ‘Mrs, Hattie Bogard, wife of Henry Bogard, has left the home on Sidney street and is now living with her fa- ther, William P. Nicholson, at 3757 Cook avenue, “Henry left April 19,” said Mr. Nich- olson. “He said he was going to Jef- ferson City to see his father, and that then he would be away for three or four months on business. He ‘told his wife aot to worry if he did not write to her. “He left her a lttle money, but not very much. I know nothing about his business affairs." Henry Bogard has a son 8 months old. Efforts are now being made by attor- neys to straighten out tae affairs of John J. Bogard, uncle of Henry Bo- gard, who disappeared six. weeks be- fore his nephew left St. Lonis,

TWO WIDOWS IN CONTEST FOR Tit HODSDON ESTATE Woman Divorced in 1892 Declares She Never Knew Decree Was Granted. _—————— WIFE a, The Third, Married Two Years Ago, Occupies Fountain Avenue Home. | SECOND DIED

The adjustment of the estate of the late Col. Edward P. Hodsdon of 4910 Fountain avenue, who died recently at the age of 71 years, has revealed a re- markable matrimonial entanglement. His first wife, Mrs. Emma B. Hodsdon of Centerville, N. H., learned only after his death that he was divorced in St. Louis without notice to her in 1892, and that he was since twice married, Through affectionate letters she re- ceived up to the time of his death she believed she was his wife. The third wife is Mrs. Kate Hodsdon of 4910 Fountain avenue, and she is claiming his estate. Mrs. Hodsdon of New Hampshire re- ceived a letter in which’ he referred to her as “my dear wife’ not more than a. month beture his death which oc- curred at Joplin, Mo., April 29. The first she knew of another wife was when Mrs. Kate Hodsdon sent a telegram to Dr. Erwin W. Hodsdon, a son at Centerville, notifying him of his father’s death. Dr. Hodsdon came to St. Louis to make an investigation and claim his father’s estate. When he arrived he found that Mrs. Kate Hodsdon was claiming the estate under her marriage which took place in March, 1907. Since he came to St. Louis, Dr. Hods- don found that his father sued‘ for di- vorce, Jan. 13, 1892, and alleged that he did not know the whereabouts of his wife. : Second Wife Died. The service was by publication, and the divorce was granted in June, 1892. The first Mrs. Hodsdon will contest the diverce as illegal because her husband was corresponding with her at the time it was granted, and all the time knew where she was living, Soon after obtaining Ke divorce Col. Hodsdon was married to Mrs. Martella Hodsdon, who died in 190%. The first wife knew nothing of the second and third wives until the investigation was started after Col. Hodsdon’s death. Col. Hodsdon was a traveling sales- man for the Sanders Duck and Rubber Co. and he aiso held stock in the com- pany. He came here from New Hampshire in 1887 and lived -here with the first Mrs. Hodsdon until 1884. He then ob- tained a position as travéling salesman and sent his wife and children back to New Hampshire. He continued to send his wife money regularly until he obtained the divorce. After that he stated in his letters to his wife and son that he was investing in Missouri lands and could not spare any money. Mrs. Emma B. Hodsdon, living back in New Hamoshire with her son, was led by Col. Hodsdon to believe all the time that she was still his legal wife, and she will base her claim to the estate upon the ground that the di- vorce was illegal and that the two sub- sequent marriages were bigamous. Son Employs Lawyer. When he got to St. Louis and learned the remarkable state of: affairs Dr. Hodsdon employed Walter H. Noh! as attorney to help him straighten out the tangle. Mrs. Kate Hodsdon has also employed Attorneys Theodore C. Eggers and Harmon J. Bliss to represent her in the contest for the estate. According to Dr. Hodsdon many . of his father’s papers are missing. He has not been able, he says, to find two insurance policies, one for $2000 and an- other for $2000, nor deeds to lands owned by Col. Hodsdon at Joplin, Mbd., and in Grant County, Nebraska. The dead to the home at 491) Fountain avenve and certificates of stock in the Sanders Duck and Rubber Co. are also missing. Dr. Hodsdon suys his father and mother were married at Rochester, N. H., Jan. 28, 1892, and that their married life was apparently happy. SLAYER, SOUGHT 2 YEARS, COMES BACK BY AGREEMENT Appears in Courtroom at Moment Gase Was Called, After Com- pact With Jones.

Them With Her Tw Children: Post-Dispatch reporters Tuesday solved the mystery of the parentage of Mrs. Alice Hill Ault of Denver, Colo., who was given to, or abducted by gyp- sies in infancy and who believes she is a granddaughter of Britton A. Hill, who was a wealthy and noted St. Louis lawyer 40 years ago. The Post-Dispatch investigation estab- lishes the fact that Mrs. Ault fs the daughter of a man who was known in his youth as John Wrylie, son] of Britton A. Hill’s washerwoman, but who afterwards called himself Joha Hill, posing as a natural son of Mr. Hill. John Wyle or Hill left St.. Louis when he was a young man and married a woman in Nebraska, who afterwards deserted him, taking a baby girl with her. This girl is now Mrs. Alice Hill Ault, the Denver claimant. Mrs. Ault’s earliest recollections are of her life with gypsies and all she has heard of her parentage has been from the wanderers with whom she lived till her escape. Dr, W. P. Hills Statement. Dr. Willlam Preston Hill of 7420 Ethel avenue, son of Britton A. Hill, made the following statement to a Post-Dis- patch reporter Tuesday: “When this woman in the West first told hér story I did not see any reason for going into the family history be- cause I do not know that she is a de- scendant of my father, although she may be. But these are the facts in the matter as far as I know them. “In the early 50's a woman by the name of Mrs. John Wylie took in wash- ing hete in St. Louis. My father, among others, was one of her customers. She was living with her husband at the time and apparently happily married to him. “When the gold craze started her hus- band left her and went out West. Three months after he left, a boy was born to her. He was baptized in the old Cathe- dral as John Wylie. This is the boy who afterwards posed as John Hill. Why he should do so I cannot understand be- cause his mother had been living with her husband, John Wrylie, but three months before. However, ag the saying goes, it is a wise child that knows its own father. “Whether he was the son of John Wylie or uxnother person, the boy was reared as John Wylie until Mrs. Wylie, believing her husband dead, married a man named Patrick, and her son took the name of Patrick. “Patrick became janitor at the bulld- ing at Third and Pine streets in which my father had his office. Mrs. Patrick was janitress. That is how our family continued to be famfliar with their his- tory.

Flamboy for alienating the affections of Mrs. mes in the City Court of East St. Louis Tuesday. id The suit was filed.after an exciting chase of Flamboy through the strects of East St. Louls Monday night by Reames and two deputy sheriffs who sought to serve him with a summons, as it was believed that he was going to leave the city immediately and that Mrs. Reames was going with him.

The sheriffs floundered aft- er him, but he dodged into an alley and Reames found him again and then Deputy Sheriff Hagerty chased him 10 bloeks and served the summons on him. Flamboy’s attentions to Mrs. Reames were first discovered by her mother- in-law, who observed that Flamboy went to her son’s house in the evenings ostensibly fo listen to the phonograph. When he did s6 she noticed that the lights were turned out. Last Saturday night she concluded to watch Flamboy. He left the, house aft- er supper, saying he was going down- town.

SPRINGFIELD, Ill, May 11.—Baby- less flats in Illinois cease with the pass- age of a bill by the ~Legislature this morning, compelling owners of apart- ment houses to rent to families having children under 14 years old. The meas- ure was offered by Representative Frank MeNichols of Chicago. The act was sanctioned by mothers’ clubs of the State and went through the House without opposition. A sort of a trust is said to exist in many parts of the State by which fami- ltes having infant children are excluded from apartment houses and flats. As a result, it is claimed, families in Chicago and other large cities have experienced great difficulty in obtaining places to live. \ Discussed by Mothers’ Ciuhs. The question was discussed by moth- ers' clubs, and finally Representative McNichols consented to prepare and of- fer a bill making it a misdemeanor to bar families because of the presence of babies. Letters from mothers have been re- ceived by the assemblymen urging them to support the measure, and its passage came without opposition. Two white slave bills were passed by the House today. One measure makes it a felony to engage in white slavery, and the other provides that in cases where a man lives from the wage of sinning, either he or/the woman whom he claims to be his wife, can testify when criminal cases are commenced.

Mrs. Alice Hill Ault said to the Post- Dispatch correspondent in Denver that she is not trying to establish her rela- tionship with the Hill family because of any desire for money. All she wants, she says, is to know some of her own blood relatives. Although only a little-more than 2 years old, Mrs. Ault has been married twice, and now has two children by her second husband, Dr. William Preston Hill has written to her that he is interested in her story and wants to investigate it fully. In the letter she was told that the picture of herself, which she forwarded, bears a strong resemblance to some mem- bers of the Hill family. Mrs. Hill does not even know positive- ly that she was kidnaped. Mixed up in the story as she has learned it, pierce by piece, is another romance, in which a member of the Hill family is said to have married a girl very much beneath him in social standing. Mrs. Hill is not certain that in order to quiet any scan- dal she Was given to the gypsies to be taken away from her rightful home and be brought up as a member of the roving tribe. At any rate her first recollections are those of the gypsy camp. ; Mrs. Ault has light hair, blue eyes and a good complexion, and although be- cause of her early life her education was necessarily limited; she has made good use of later years and speaks in- telligently and well. . Lengs for Old Life Sometimes. “Even now I sometimes long to get back in the apen and travel, as we used to do,”’ said Mrs. Ault, speaking. of her early experiences to a Post-Dispatch correspondent in Denver Tuesday. “But when I think of the drudgery I had to undergo, the cruel treatment and the the desire quickly passes, and I no longer envy the gypsy in his care-free life. “My first recollections are of going from town to town in a big covered wagon, sieeping out under the sky, and never staying in one town longer than a week or so. As I grew. older I com- ‘menced to realize that I was unlike other members of the band, and-I com- menced to question them about myself, At first it was only the -‘inquisitive- ness of a child, but, as I grew older, 1 commenced to try harder to find out more about myself. — ‘‘They told me that My grandfather's name was Britton A. Hill, and that he was a big lawyer in St. Louis. They said that I also had an uncle living there, Preston Patrick, and they gave me his address, 1820 Chestnut street. I have since heard that Dr. William Preston did not live at this address. The gypsies may have got mixed up in the name. ? Was Married at 15. “I was married the firat time when I Was 15 years old.

As I grew stronger: I had to do more and more work and finally life became such a burden that I decided to run away. I began to feel the responsibility of bringing up my right that they should be reared in such surroundings as I had passed my enila- hood. me as a member of the band and didn't seem to think that I ever woltild try to run away, so this made it easy for me to plan my escape. We were near Col- the attempt. I had to go at night, be- cause, although the gypsies didn’t watch me, I knew that they would not allow me to go were they to learn what I was doing. How She whined From Gypsies, “T waited until it was dark and aj the gypsies, 12 men and five women, were asleep. Then I took my two chil- dren, Belle and Luella, in my arms, and crept away from the camp. ‘It was midnight when I left and lL walked without stopping until the next morning, for I wanted to get far away that they would have no chance of finding me. At daybreak I reached an old shack, where I stayed all day and part of the night, eating only the little food I had been able to bring with me. ; “The next day I went to a farmhouse and told my story to a woman there.

Frank Lund, 55 Years Old, Made Sure of Death in Sequestered Spot. , After working 10 years-as a night watchman for the Brown Shoe Co., saving his money and fricreasing it by building small dwellings and selling them at a profit, Frank Lund. killed himself Monday afternoon because he feared he had ventured rashly in erect- ing a new house and. would lose his’ little fortune. . Lund was 5 years old.and lived at 4258 Wyoming street. , Monday he told his wife he was going downtown. Mrs. Lund heard no more of him wmftil the news of his déath reached “— Monday night. The body was out in a edu clump of woods near Oak Hill and Gravois avenues. Dogs belonging to two men who were hunting in the vicinity dis- covered the body and attracted the at- tention of the men. There was a bullet hole in the right temple, Beside the body lay a revolver and ,a small mirror. : that Lund had used the mirror to make his aim accurate in firing the fatal shot. Lund ‘was a reticent man. He had worked steadily for many years, living frugally and laying by such money as he could save. A few years ago he saw the need for small dwelling houses in his section of the city. Families to whom life in flats had become distaste- ful were demanding small houses with- in their means. Lund studied the Hrop- osition carefully and ventured to build. He bought lots and put up two small residences, which he sold at a profit. New House Worried Him. “My husband never said much to me about his money matters,” said Mrs. Lund to the Post-Dispatch, ‘“‘but I knew in @ general way that he had saved up considerable money. It may have been $6000, including what he had made on his houses, — “He was building another house, a one-story brick dwelling, at Bent ave- nue and Wyoming street. This was to cost about $3000. Three weeks ago Mr. Lurd borrowed $1500 on the property, giving a deed of trust. seemed worried for fear that he would be unable to pay the contractor and might get so involved that he would lose his investments, Though he said hitule, I think this was what caused him to take his life.’’ Lund seems to have planned ‘his death with a view to keeping his fate a secret as long as possible. The section of the city where he shot himself is wild woodiand, seldom visited. The po- lice say that but for the fact that the dogs ran through the underbrush and barked furiously when they came to the dead man his body might not have been found for many months. 6187 PEOPLE “SAW A GREAT LIGHT” AND PROFITED BY IT LAST SUNDAY. Sunday’s Post-Dispatch contained 6187 people’s popular want ads and mer- chant's announcements, 260. more than were printed in. the three other St. Louls Sunday news- papers combined. While the second largest newspaper showed a loss from the corresponding Sunday of last year of 426 want ads and the third largest a loss of 728, the Post-Dispatch’s gain was 639! Roll this over in your mind a moment or two and you will “see a great light,” which will guide your footsteps Post- Dispatchward the next time you want to “talk’’ help, board, house, rooms, flats, real estate, for sale, wanted and what not to the goog people of St. Louis and the great Southwest.

WATCH FOB, “CON MEN, GET LEFT Bonne Terre (Mo.) Visitor Routs Suave “Dudes”? Who: Lose Jewel. Abraham Jorems of Bonne Terre, Mo., “done himself proud” when he fell in with two. suave St. Louis confidence men, Tuesday. ‘ In spite of Mr. Jorems’ new clothes, two young fellows who looked like dudes, but who had _ fine manners, guessed somehow that Mr. Jorems was a stranger. They up and asked him if they hadn't guessed right and he ‘lowed they had. The three walked to Pine street and then west. One of the young men sug- gested matching coins, ‘‘odd man win,” and Jorems was soon startled to find he had lost $42. Gets Roll From “Banker.” One of the “dudes” acted as a sort of banker and had the money in his hand. Mr. Jorems, suddenly suspicious, decided that the matching game they had been playing ‘wasn’t quite as fair} as a Bonne Terre checker contest. So he grabbed his $42 rrom the ‘‘dude’s”’ hands. He got all but a’ fragment of a $10 bill. In the brief struggle for the money Mr. Jorems inadvertently clutched and jerked loose the watchfob that had ornamented the ‘‘dude’s” waist line. The dudes fled in such haste that Mr. Jorems thought they were professional Marathon runners who matched coins as a side line only. He didn’t try to find out where they were going for fear they might ask for the watch fob. “Now I’m a-goin’ to hit the trail for Bonne Terre,’’ he said, “‘and tell the boys at home what I done.

I have scen deat and dumb ones, old and young ones, ‘the prima donna who complained that the umpires voice was not pitched just right and the German house frau with her kinder, who understood no English but seemed versed in baseball lingo. But I have chosen as the most con- spicugus type, merely the one who makes the most noise. This Is the Place Where All Conventions Are Not. VERYONE recognizes the value of ‘relaxation to pent-up emotions, and the girl who would otherwise be tripping about on stilted heels, cir- cumspectly dissipating her spirit in pink teas, at sewing circles, posing over of- ~— arguerite M artyn. for the Post- . 4 in the Martyn Series of St. Louis Types.

She it is who appreciates the rejuve- nation afforded by the fresh, free air of genéral unrestraint in the atmosphere of our national game. She will go home with her complexion ard coiffure a tem- porary wreck, her voice quite spent and useless, but with a good, comfortable kind of a tired feeling, whether the home team has won or lost.: For I do not pretend that her loraity to the home team is based upon a high order of in- thliigent discrimination. For often have I heard it scorned and ridiculed by those superior masculine logicians. The average fanette probably | knows nothing of batting averages. She may base her preferences upon her ad- miration of Rube Waddell’s noble shoul- ders. In her opinion the strength of the. team may lie in Schweitzer’s handsome physiognomy. Her sympathies may be appealed to in behalf of Bresnahan’s shinguards more than any other one cause. * . But she may think the men on the coaching line deserve especial credit

Generally he gets eer is no: reat investigation. power for the State, the prime object of the bond issue is the building of the navigable channel from the Ifkes to the gulf. The money is to be expended in furtherance of the whole waterway project, and in co-operation with the Federal Gov- ernment’s-work to that end. Unquestionably the voters of Illinois expected that the State’s work is | to be a part of the general plan, and that it is to be accomplished in conjunction with the general scheme of improvement to the Gulf. The Illinois Legislature should keep this in view as a funda- mental condition of applying the funds to the con- struction of the Illinois channel. It should insist upon Federal co-operation in carrying out the complete plans. The bill now pending before the Iinois House fairly meets the demands of the situation. | In. view of the great importance of the subject, the widespread public interest and the desirability of the fullest information with regard to the pro- posed waterway plans and toeir feasibility, Col. Bixby’s report of the findings of the Special Sur- vey Commission should be made public. The sur- vey was made for the purpose of determining the practicability of the deep channel. Primarily or- dered for the guidance of Congress, its publicity is extremely desirable, for the enlightenment of the public and the intelligent consideration of all wa- terway plans. Its contents would be valuable now to the Illinois Legislature. : With the survey completed, and the’ conclusions of the Commission in the hands of the Secretary of War, why should the report be held back? Why should not the Commission’s findings, intended for publicity and essential to the determination of waterway problems, be given to the public? ————___—_————_->- @___—_—-_-_—-— It is to be hoped that another vote on the tax- separation amendment will be taken in the House with better results. The hope of thorough tax reform rests with this amendment. Its operation would be as beneficial to the country as to the city. With State taxes wholly separated from lo- cal taxes each locality would be enabled to levy taxes according to its needs for local purposes. The question of tax equalization would be settled. A SALUTARY EXAMPLE. In sentencing James H. Boyle, convicted of kid- naping Willie Whitla to life imprisonment, Judge Williams said the Pennsylvania law was more lenient than that of ancient times which punished child-stealing with death. There is a difference of opinion on the subject. Many regard life im- prisonment, if carried out to the end, severer pun- ishment than death. That Boyle regarded death as preferable to a life term was proven by the evi- dence Of his intention to commit suicide. Mrs. Boyle, who was sentenced for 25 years, tried to kill herself. | The conclusion of the trial of the pair will be received with general satisfaction. Both earned the extreme penalty of the law. There is an ele- ment of cold-blooded cruelty in the kidnaping of children for gain which renders the crime ab- horrent to everyone with a spark of humanity. The fate of this precious pair of scoundrels will be a salutary example. Parents will breathe easier with the knowledge that they are behind the bars, and that their punishment is a signal warning to others of their kind. ——_——————-0—________ Of course, the advantage was all on the side of the mighty nimrod.

MISMATED MARITAL PARTNERS. The Century article on divorce by Prof. Baward |} Alsworth Ross, republished in the Sunday Post- Dispatch, is a plain review of the question with- of }out theological or dogmatic prepossessions During the 20 years, 1867 to 1886, 328 ne ai- yorces were granted in the United States; from 11887 to 1906 there were 945,625. Prof. Ross thinks that probably one m in 10 is broken. At the present rate of increase in 40 yeats one mar- | riage in‘ four will end in divorce, and in 80 years efit one in, two. In former times the wife was an economic fac-

To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. I take exception to the letter published in your pa- per signed “Lookeron.”” From an econonfic point ot view I think his logic is false. State-wide prohibition may displace several hundred workingmen, but, if that is “‘the peculiarly immoral aspect of it,”’ what immoral creatures the cotton gin, trip hammer and threshing machine must be. But let us note a few statistics: Each $100 spent over the bar for whisky represents approximately $9 labor; the same amount spent for beer represents $16 labor, or each $100 spent in the saloon represents $14 labor, or will employ one man one week. Now $100 spent for furniture rep- resents near $65 labor, or will employ one man one month; the same amount spent for shoes or clothing represents $47 labor, or will employ one man 26 days. Now, in the event of State-wide prohibition, if hattf the money spent for Hquor would be spent for furni- ture and clothing, it would require twice that many men to make this additional amount of useful) arti- cles as it would to make the entire amount of liquor consumed in the State; or, in other words, for each man displaced in the brewery business two men would be required in other vocations. Rolla, Mo. GEO. L. EDWARDS. “Sovereign” Citizens. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. In @ recent issue of the Post-Dispatch Christian Pipecover objects to the manner in which the Em- peror of Germany presented the Bible to the Holy Ghost Church, on thé ground that the members, of the Holy Ghost Church are “sovereign’’ American citizens. Vattle defines a State as an Organized, sovereign, political community. Therefore, it would appear that the State, and not the members of any church, are sovereign: wowhere in the Constitution of the United States does the term ‘‘sovereign Amertt- can citizens” occur, but citizen and citizéns of the United States appear many times. Evidently the. m- peror is capable of distinguishing between the sov- ereign and the members of a — Webb City, Mo. . THORNTON. Nature Is Inexhaustible. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. There is an abundance of valuable natural resources in our big world for supplying all the present popu- lation and countless millions more—considering how rapidly people are dying off by Wars, needless and ruinous methods of eating and drinking, overtaxing their strength, and scores of other foolish things too numerous to mention. There is everywhere a perpet- ual struggle for the chance to merely live, the con- test being among rich and poor, destitution and lux- ury, hope and despair. Strange it is that any intel- ligent person with one eye and a thimbleful of brains can fail to see that monopoly of the natural resources is at the bottom of the two varying con- ditions that uphold great wealth and luxury on one side and destitution and suffering on the other. All of the supplies for mankind must come from the earth. No person can truthfully say that any man or woman on earth can have a just claim by birth- fight to any portion of the earth, unless he or she pays to the public what that privilege is worth. Such being the case, nothing but land values should ever be taxed for public purposes.. H. SYCAMORE. Justice Defeated. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch, What queer travesties on justice we read of every day. One day we find @ policeman shooting down a boy who had not done anything, but was scared into running away. Next we read of a fiend who has al- ready served two terms for assaults on little girls and is now arrested for a third and similar offense. Now, in this case, it is very evident the sentence was too light for the first offense and for the second ‘he should have got a life sentence or been hung. We now read of strenuous efforts being made—even by an appeal to the President—to free two educated perpetrators of serious crimes because they are of respectable families, and that if the President will not interfere a trick or series of tricks will be adopted by which they will escape the actual carrying out of the sentence Imposed, while ignorant and unfor- tunate offenders, who are often driven te crime by want, desperation and miserable environment, ars given the butt end of the law. Those who have had the advaritages of education and wholesome sur- roundings should really havé less merey shown them than is meted to the ignorant and unfortunate. “CELTIC AMERICAN.” Divorce Suits Discourage Him.

The St. Louis National Baseball Club, adopting a business policy which is be- coming general, has indemnified itself against the loss of a catcher in whom it has invested $60,000 by insuring his life for that amount. As a similar pre- caution a New York firm of theatrical managers has insured an actor in its em- ploy for $25,000. Pianists and violinists insure their fingers, and in England Lloyds issues policies guaranteeing the insured against decrease of income un- der the provisions of the new isis: budget. The advantages of this densmmareia use of insurance are obvious. Why should it not be tried by municipalities as @ pro- tection against loss due to the incom- petence of public officials? Why not in- sure mayors, di t attorneys and bor- ough presidents during their term of office under policies payable on failure to keep campaign promises or on proof of extravagance or incapacity? The recall is advocated as a remedy for such conditions. But a recall pro- vides nothing in the way of compensa- tion for the public. The mere acceptance of the risk by the company would be in the nature of a certificate of char- acter for the candidate. Provision could JUST A MINUTE FOR

PEACE IN A BORDER TOWN, The danger to a border town in ¢cele- brating anniversaries of the Civil War is well illustrated in the ‘controversy over the conduct of a particular Con- federate officer on the field of Camp Jackson. An eyewitness on the Union side says this officer was excited. The officer’s son asserts that he was per- fectly calm. It is of no importance. The point is that the controversy had never arise if we had not celebrated the anniversary of Camp Jacksog’s fall. In a community where they were all for the North or all for the South, it would be perfectly safe to do this sort of thing; but it should not be in a border town. It only revives feeling that were better dead, If there were some great battle of that war in which the outcome was a tie, or, better, which both sides won, we could safely celebrate it here with- out offending anyone, cave kc ide) ee a anal there had been less to explain? —_—_—_ The remuneration which our mbia, The. the 0 te snes up Fag closed te of Be Boney the he Sta ter ton ex-First Citizen is to receive for hia articles | ¥ on African €onditions ts stated to be at the | #!

With a dry and scaly scalp, the hair should be shampooed every three weeks or once a month. If you put it off for several months, the pores of the scalp become clogged and the hair falls out in consequence. Your hair is turning gray in one spot, and also | falling out, probably for lack of nourish- ment and an impaired circulation.

BY JAMES ORUSINBERRY. DDIE. PLANK'S pitching Monday further distorted the standing of the Browns, ‘when they attempted to retrieve themselves in the first. con- & test of the season with what was ‘teams of the American League.

NINE FIVES IN STATE TOURNEY Louis Tenpin Bowlers Will Depart Friday for Excelsior Springs Event. 1St.

Because the schedule committee of the Missouri State Bowling Association could not see fit to grant their request that they be allowed to bowl on a cer- tain day, the Witter Christens five will not attend the annual State tourna- ment at Excelsior Springs, Mo., May 9-16. The Witter Clirtetens have one of the strongest teams in the city and last year won the championship. in the City League. Two members of the club, Jerry Ameling and Con Fuerman,- won the championship of the Middle West in doubles at St. Joseph, Mo. It is expected that nine clubs will de- part from St. Louis Friday night and will bowl Saturday and Sunday. The Western Rowing Club came to the front with an unexpected entry, while Dennis Sweeney also decided to send his Bowler team. The Hyde Parks, Lynches, Duffys, Lange’s Stars, Markhams and Delmars are the other local fives that will make the trip. The entry list frém this city is much smaller than was expected, but the tournament is rather late in the year and the trips to St. Joseph, Mo., for the Middle West tournament, and to Pittsburg, for the American Bowling Congress competitions, proved rather costly.

Buick Motor Co. reports the sales of 23 cars last Saturday. A number of thess were to subagents and some were re- ail sales. The automobile accessory dealers and manufacturers will give a banquet at the Mercantile Club tonight at 7 o’clock after which a trade association will be formed. the city sales manager of the Franklin Refining Co., 308 North Commercial street. This company haé been making Oils for the use of gasoline automebile motors. Mr. Aubuchon has taken up this line for the Franklin company with considerable energy, and he will closely look after the large trade al- ready built up by his company among automobilists. An ordinance is under debate for the regujation of taxicabs in New York, the provisions of which seem for the most part just arid reasonable. It alms to have a uniform rate of tariff. to have meters attached to front wheels, s0 that the customers will not be charged mileage for the spinning of the rear wheels on wet pavements. The motors on the St, Louis taxicabs are run by the front wheels.

To Be Three Winners in GHdden Tour There will be a lot more satisfaction than ever before in the Glidden tour this year for the small boy, the general way- farer and the average citizenthose who greet the first arrivals with ‘‘who’se ahead?” or “who wins?” This is an- other way of saying that the human interest in the contest will be greater. It is undeniable that everyone expects to see a winner evolved when any sort of a contest is under way. They de- mand a winner. Explanations do not satisfy. They merely mystify. That if you have a contést there must be a winner, is a natural postulate of every mind, and the club idea and the tied scores of former years were mocking to the ayerage person. In fact, they tend- ed to make the contest.seem less serious than it was and it will be a great re- Hef to everyone concerned this year to be able to say who is ahead and win- ning. There will +e three individual victories to be scored, one each for the Glidden, Hower and Detroit trophies and the human interest in the tour is three times as great Cenerore.. -_ - Although 87 automobiles were entered and 24 started in the Pittsburg endur- ance run held last week. only ll were able to finish, so difficult was the three- day trail over mountain roads made slippery by heavy rains.

Cardinals Hope to Shove Superbas Into Tail End R against Brooklyn today and it is NEW YORK, May 11 OGER BRESNAHAN and his St. Louls Cardinals are to open a series expected that before the series. is’ over one or the other of the two teams will hava established a right to get out of last place in the race this séason. Fans generally believe the last position will come to one of these two teams, so series, If the Cardinals continue to play the ball they have been doing since the sea- son opened, there is-little chance for them to get shoved into the tail-end position. They are hitting the ball and running the bases as well as any of them and only a weak defense has kept them down in the race. Now the de- fense seems to be strengthened and the boys are going inte the game with more confidence than ever. It is in Philadelphia that the Cardi- nals expect to have the toughest fight- ing of the present Eastern invasion. New York and Brooklyn are not going any too well and Fresnahan has hopes of winning a majcrity of the games in those places. Boston has been hitting a lively clip, but is believed to be playing beyond iis speed. The Phillics, how- ever, are deservingly close to the top and reckoned a powerful team by all others. Bresnahan announced that he would continue to play daring baseball. He has the speed on his club necessary to make such style of playing a success, and as it has won many games already and worked havoc on nearly every pitcher that has faced them, he pro- poses to keep on with the good work. Roger would like to precure another strong pitcher and may be able to do so before this trip is finished. He has Beebe,. Rhodes, Lush and Sallee in fine working order, but needs another, as two of these are left-handers and can hardly be used in some of the cities. Sallee and Lush will be saved as much as possible during the Brooklyn series, because it is upon them Bres- nahan is depending to beat the New York Giants; his former’ team mates, when the Cardinals go over there the latter part of the week. Beebe is ex- pected to pitch the first Brooklyn game, or possibly Sallee wiit work in the first, then rest until the New York series. Brooklyn has a strong pitching staff and two or three heavy hitters. Mana- ger Lumley depends on his pitchers to hold the opposing team down to a run or two, and then expects the sluggers

Gov. Hailey Sends All Papers in the Case to Laird and Asks Action. New evidence relating to the midnight arrest of Miss Hildegarde Hallen in her Julian ‘avenue home by Chief of De- tectives Smith has becn’ mailed by Gov. Hadley to President Laird wf the St. Louis Police Board, with the request that the board consider all the facts in the case, and take such action as it deems proper.

Etta Hamilton Martin Wrote She Cared Only for Love and Song. By Leased Wire From the New York Boreau of the Post-Dispatch. NEW YORK, May 11.—By reason of the respondent’s demand for trial by jury and a bill of particulars, details became public of an action for abso- lute divorce brought by Edwin E. Mar- tin against Etta Hamilton Martin, both standing high socially and with promi- nent connections in Brooklyn. Mrs. Martin is a favorite on the con- cert stage and long has figured in the musical diversions of fashionable so- ciety. The papers name no less than eight men as possible co-respondents and contain. 27 allegations. Mr. and Mrs. Martin have one daughter, Mar- jorie. Mrs. Martin is the daughter of the Rev. Dr. Jay Benson Hamilton, for many years a leading preacher in the Methodist Church. ST. LOUIS HOTEL otek! |Humorist, in City to Write Up the Mississsippi, Registered as John Smith to No Avail. Cass Gilbert, the New York afchitect, who designed the new Carnegie Library tion Building site, is a summer neighbor of Mark Twain. Mr. Gilbert and the famous humorist have summer homes in Connecticut, nine miles apart. Recently Mr. Gilbert and Mark Twain, otherwise Samuel L. Clemens, met at dinner. The architect told the humorist the story of a trip he made up the Mississippi River from Cairo to St. Paul 42 years ago. “A great river is the Mississippi and I love it,” said the humorist. “Your story reminds me of a recent trip I made to St. Louis to write up the Mis- sissippi for a magazine. “The publisher took me out as his oe We did not want it known that now being erected on the old Expost-| stick pin. @ é “Tt wrote John Smith of New York on. the register, and the publisher wrote the name of Mr. Jones, The same old bell sat on the desk, one the clerk hit it in the same old way.” “ ‘ront,’ he yelled at the bell hop in| a voice that sounded strangely familiar. The boy trotted up. ‘Show Mr, Clemens up to 319, please.’ “Tl knew it was all off then. I threw aside my disguise and became Mark Twain again. You can’t fool those St. Louis hotel clerks.”’

Most of the brilliant ideas in after- dinner speaking come out of a cham- pagne bottle and disappear with the

bubbles.

The| resolution reads, in part: “The prohibitionists are absolutists. They contend that the majority have }4N absolute power, and that individual tights. may thus be justly swept aside. We condemn prohibition on that ground. But we condemn thie so-called prohibi~ tion of the liquor traffic on the further ground that it overlooks the nature of real temperance, Temperance is a per- sonal virtue. This virtue we desire to promote in every way possiblie.”’ The treating habit is condemned in the resolution.

“About September, 1906,’ Mr. Martin says in his affidavit, after telling of having complained to his wife of her attitude to Dr. Will’am C. Woolsey at Atlantic Highlands tn the summer of 1901, ‘‘on our return to Brooklyn I took Marjorie, as was my custom, to Sunday school. Her mother remained at home. While out, Marjorie expressed a wish for her Teddy bear. We returned to the house for it. On entering, I found my wife and Dr. Woolsey alone in the back parlor. They appeared somewhat confused at my unexpected entry. My feelings were such for the moment that I could say nothing. I went upstairs and on coming down found him leav- ing. j Told of Love in Diary. “A few days thereafter, with this new affair still in my mind, I came into possession of my wife’s diary, en- tirely in her own handwriting, telling of her affection for Woolsey and of reasons justifying her love for him. In it she said Hfe would not be worth living but for ‘Billy’ and his love; that she had never loved me; that she was Bohemian by nature and all she cared for was love and song. “When I read it I became very iil. My wife was away at the time, but re- turned a day or so later and I at once spoke to her about it.
