Two men armed with shotguns entered the People’s Bank in Benbow City, lll., at 1:20 p. m. Friday, while the cashier, Steve Moore, was counting out a shipment of $2500, which he had just received, and robbed him of all ase money and of several hundred dollars in addition. While one of the men guarded Moore and kept ¢ a lookout for any possible interruption, the other seized the 24 $100 bills, the 50 $1 bills and the one $50 bill, which had made up the consignment just received by the bank in a package from St. Louis. The men concealed their guns as they guns as they entered, and one of them asked-the cashier if he could cash 4 check. . . Moore asked to see the check, and as he went to the counter, the weapons were raised. He then went hurriedly ‘through the cash drawers, and took bills and coin amounting to more than $500. The total wetted is near $3500. / The two men ran out without attract- ing anyone’s attention. They were out of the town before the eashier could follow them. As they started south, a_ telephone message was sent to the East St. Louis police, asking them to seize the men if they passed through East St. Louis. One of the men was six feet tall and had. a scrubby beard. The other was short and smooth shaven, Both wore shabby dark suits and slouch hats. TAFT SENDS TWO MEN TO SETTLE Chairman Knapp of the Inter- state Commerce Commis- sion Will Investigate. WASHINGTON, May 2.—President Taft and his Cabinet considered the Georgie Railroad strike today and de- cided that Chairman Knapp of the Interstate Commerce Commission should go at once to Atlanta to use his efforts to effect adjustment of the trouble or at leas: enforce compliance with the in- terstate commerce law. It was also decided that Second As- sistant Postmaster-General Stewart should go to Atlanta to look after the movement of the maiis. ‘Trains Run With Negro Firemen. ATLANTA, Ga., May 28.—Carrying a negro fir¢man, the first train of any sort to run over the Georgia Railroad for more than five days, an engine and a mail car, left here at 7:30 this morn- “ing. The traifii pulled out through a deep lane of spectators at the station, but there was no demonstration. A train carrying the regular crew, in- cluding a negro fireman also left Augus- ta this morning. The train consisted of mail cars only, manned by mail clerks. No demonstration marked its departure. Reports from Harlem, Booneville and Thomson, the latter 4 miles out of Augusta, say the train passed through those places without incident. ‘When the train passed Crawfofds- ville indignation was freely expressed over the presence of the negro firemen, but there was no demonstration. Many ‘persons said they preferred to do with- out mail than have it brought by negro firemen. The sentiment was strongly expressed that the people of this community were willing, if neces- sary to undergo privations to help the striking firemen, At Thomson there was joy at getting the mail anf the crowd at the station accepted the presence of the negro fire- - man cheerfully. The strixing firemen have co-operated with the authorities in efforts to pre- vent al demonstrations against’ the Vice-President Ball wir- tne cautionary notices all along the The train from Augusta completed the uae }uin over the mail line into Atlanta early this afternoon, without having encoun- . i TT Negro Firemen Used. ‘A, Ga, May %.—A negro Mm Was on the engine of the mail + ae left here for Atlanta this ane of thn matis wes ae : eee ORGIA STANE} BAD MONE! TWO SURE-THING GAMBLERS WITH IELD Confederate Bills’ for: $1000 Found on One of Pair Caught at Station. Two “sure thing’’ gamblicrs, who were just looking around the city, with no intention, they said, of’ trying their game here, were arrested at Union Station Friday simply because two city detectives had a good memory. “We wouldn’t try to pull off any- thing in this cheap town,’ said one of the pair, as they were being taken to Police Headquarters. ‘‘We’re going to the Alaska-Yukon-Pacific Exposition at Seattle, and if you hold us here, it nmiay delay the exposition in opening.”’ Confederate Bills Are Found. Detectives Joyce and Lardner said they would take the chance, and searched the prisoners. They found $1000 Confederate bill in a pocket of one of the men, who called himself William Lawrence. His companion said he was Fk’. Max Knott. “Both said they came from New York. In Lawrence’s - possession also was found a leather belt with a cambric pocket attached. The pocket had a wire spring to hold it open and inside of it was &@ metal plate on which to rest a pack of marked cards. From the bottom of the pocket and attached to the plate extended a string wich, the gamblers explained, was to be fastened to the operator’s shoe. When he was dealing, a movement of his foot would shoot the marked cards into his aand and he would at the’ same time drop the deck of “straight” cards into the bag. They Deny Trying Device Here. The men said they had not attempted to use the device in St. Louis. ‘There are no open gambling games in this town,” seid Lawrence. They were arrested as ‘suspicious characters,”’ and will be held pending an investigation. DIVORCE HASTENED TO LET WOMAN MARRY INVALID REDDING, Cal., May 28.—Because Al- bert Frazer, cashier of the California Navigation and Improvement Co. of Stockton, to whom she is engaged to be married, was seriously {ll and was to undergo an operation from which he may not recover, Mrs. Bernice Winchell of Stockton, formerly Miss Bernice Bemis of this place, was granted an absolute decree of divorce from) Winchell last night, court holding a night session in order that the engaged couple might wed before death intervened to prevent their union. Telegraphic requests from Mrs. Winch- ell’s attorneys in Stockton were received by the County Court, stating that the bride-to-be was anxious to marry Frazer | at once before an operation for appen- at ares was performed. rs.

HOME GIVEN TO WIDOW TE Massachusetts Residence Left to Son, Who Is Named as One of Executors. By Wire from the New York Bureau of the Post-Dispatch, NEW YORK, May 2.—The will of Henry H. Rogers, who was the first vice-president and the right arm of the Standard Oil Co., was filed for pro- bate in thfs city today. It leaves noth- ing to charity. The only bequest made outside the Rogers family is that of $100,000 to Fairhaven, Mass., to be used for the improvement of the primary and grammar schools of that city. It was in Fairhaven that the captain of finance got his early education, and in his later years he made many gifts to the city. It is variously estimated that the estate left by Mr. Rogers is worth from $40,000,000 to $100,000,000, but the amount is not set forth in the will. Provides Annuity of $100,000. The will gives to the widow the use of the New York City residence and sets aside a trust fund of from $2,500,- 000 to $3,000,000 go provide an annuity for her of $100,000. At her death this trust fund is to -be returned to the residuary estate. Mr. Rogers leaves his residence at Fairhaven, Mass., and his real estate there to his son, Henry H. Rogers Jr. Various trusts, ranging in amounts from $10,000 to $200,000 each, and alto- gether aggregating $500,000, are created for the benefit of Mr. Rogers’ collateral relatives. The income from these trusts is to be paid to the various beneficiaries during their lives, and on their deaths the principal of the t:ust funds will re- vert to the residuary estate of the tes- tator. Trast Fund for His Children. _Mr,’ Rogers, after making these be- questg, divided his residuary estate into four. trust funds, one for the benefit of each of his children. When the chil- dren attain the age of 40, they each are to receive one-half of the principal of tho trust created for the'> benefit, the other half is to be held in trust during the life of each child, but to each child is given the power to dispose of the principal o. the trust by will. Four Children Share Equally. The four children of Mr. Rogers who share equally in hig residuary estate, are named in the will as follows: Anne Engle Benjamin, Clara Leeland Brough- ton, Mai Rogers Coe and Henry Hutles- ton Rogers. It is provided in the will that the cost of any litigation that may be instituted in. regard to bequests shall be deducted from the bequest of the litigant. Mr. Rogers’ works of art, bric-a-brac, books, plate, etc., are left to his widow. To his son he willed his jewelry and personal effects. May Dispose of the Property. Mr. Rogers gives to his trustees full authority to retain any of his property in the same form of investment as that in which it came to them at his death, or in their discretion to dispose of all or any part of such property, which is real or personal. They are permitted to in- vest the personal estate in real estate, Government bonds, insbonds secured by real eState mortgages or in standard stecks or bonds of railroads in the United States or Canada. The will was dated May 7, 1907. The executors of the will are Henry H. Rogers Jr., son of the testator; John W. Sterling of New Youk, Walter P. Winsor of Fairhaven, Mass., and the Farmers’ Loan and Trust Co. of New York. The only estimates given with the will were that the real estate is worth more than $10,000 and the personal estate ex-~- ceeds $10,000. COPPER BOOKS MUTILATED . ACCORDING TO PROSECUTOR They Are Wanted by Grand Jury Investigating Heinze’s Bank Transactions. NEW YORK, May 28.—Representing to the Court that the books of the United Copper Co.*had been mutilated by some- one while in the process of examination by representatives of his office, Federal obtained from United States Judge La- combe an order for the production of the company’s books in court without fur- ther mutilation. The inspection was being made in be- half of the Federal grand jury, which is investigating the alleged misapplica- tion of the funds of the Mercantile Na- tienal Bank by F. Augustus Heinze. It was ordered that the books be produced in court at 4 o'clock this afternoon. Ir. applying for the order District At- torney Wise told the Court that before the eSamination of the United Copper Co.’s books had been. completed by the grand jury 18 or 20 es were found to have been torn from them.

GUARD HURT IN FIGHT City Does Not Know of Attack at 1 A. M. Until Convicted Cattleman Is Dead. Special to the Post-Dispatch. ABILENE, Tex., ay 28.—Tom Bar- nett, a cattleman, convicted of the murder of Alex Sears, another cattle- man, was shot to death in his cell in the Taylor County Jail at 1 a. m. to- day by a mob of masked men after the lynchers had failed to break into his cell, and after they had seriously in- jured L. L. Pevey, the jailer, in a struggle for his pistol. Barnett was in jail pending an ap- peal from his conviction, and, while, Gissatisfaction had been expressed in Abilene because he had received only a life sentence, excittment which wag Ligh following the murder of Sears, ap- parently had died out. The masked men drove to the jail in buggies and quietly entered the lower floor atlaem. Jailer Pevey wa’ asleep in his room and when he was awak- ened with the command that he point out the cell of Barnett he drew his pistol. He soon was ovérpowered, how- ever, and his weapon was taken from him. The mob then ineffectually pleaded with him to turn over the keys to the ce) ls. Jailer’s Family Guarded. " The family of the Jailer then was put under guard to prevent telephone messages from being sent and the elec- tric wires were cut. Going upstairs the mob forced open the doors of the outer corridor and found Barnett in his cell. The lynchers tried for some time to batter down the bars, but the iron with- stood their attack, and, at a signal, re- volvers and shotguns were leveled and Barnett fell dead, the aim of almost every man in the mob having been true. The lynchers quietly drove away. As the crowd was’ leaving the prison it be- came known that the Jailer had been in- jured severely in the struggle and one member of the mob returned to Pevey’s room and wept and prayed over his prostrate form. It is declared Pevey’s family can identify members of the mob and Taylor County authorities to- day promised that arrests soon would be made. The lynchers worked so quietly that Abilene citizens did not know of the attack on the jail until Pevey sounded an alarm after the mob had bi gece Victim’s Body Burn Sears came to Abilene from Shs home in Anson on the night of Feb. 1, with the intention of selling a lot of Cattle to Barnett for more than $6000. Sears arrived here at 9:45 p. m. and was seen in a cafe later. Shortly before 2 a. m. the next day a school building in Cal- lahan County, 12 miles east of Abi- lene, was burned and in e ruins was found a body which afterward was identified as that of Sears. At 4:30 a. 'm. the same day the barn on the farm of Tom Barnett, one and one-half miles west of Barnett, was. burned, with a buggy, which it housed. Tracks showing that a buggy went to the burned schoolhouse from Abilene and returned here were found soon aft- er the fire, and shoes taken from one of Barnett’s horses fitted the tracks leading to the schoolhouse. Sears’ watch and chain were found along the road over which the buggy traveled to the school- house, and on a bridge along the route were bloodstains. This circumstantial evidence caused Barnett’s arrest. The State’s theory at his trial was that he killed Sears in carrying out a scheme to pay for the cattle by a spurious transfer of real estate. The jury convicted Barnett in the District Court April 4 and sentenced him to life imprisonment. TAFT 1S SHOCKED BY PLAY AND LEAVES BETWEEN ACTS President, With- Sister-in-Law and Military Aide, Is Shocked by “The Revelers.”’ WASHINGTON, May 28.—President Taft walked out of a local theater Wednesday night because he disap- proved of the character of the play that was being produced. Friends of the President said that he was dis- gusted with the performance. The play was “The Revellers,” a Shubert pro- duction written’ by Charles Richman and described as a comedy in four acts. It began a week's run at the Belasco Theater Monday night. With the President were Mrs. Louls Moore of Cincinnati, who is Mrs. Taft’s sister, and Capt. Archfbald W. Butt, the President's military aide. - They oc- cupied an upper box. Secretary of State Knox and Senator W. Murray Crane of Massachusetts had been to the perform- ance earlier In the week and had found it so salacious that they left early: but they forgot to tell President Taft about it. Mr. Taft did not fina any comedy 'n the portion of the performance which he witnessed. “The Revellers’”’ depicts scenes along the Great White Way. li order to avoid attracting attention and exciting comment by going out while the players were on the ota. | the Taft DIVORCE SKETCHED IN’ COURT DON SUMMERS COULDN'T ABIDE CRYING BABY te a —— Acttess, Suing Former rt Circuit "Attorney, De- clares He Loved Nature Better Than His Home. Vivacious, wearing a white shirtwaist suit with a simple gold clasp pin at! the neck and a broad yellow straw sailor hat sheltering her blonde curls, Mrs. Helene Sullivan Summers, former- ly of “The Morals of Marcus’’ dramatic company, told in Judge Sale’s division of the Circuit Court Friday morning how her husband, Assistant Circuit Attorney Don C. Summers, left her because he had to work all day and couldn’t bear to be at home at night and hear the baby cry. Judge Sale took Mrs. Summers’ di- vorce suit under advisement. The plain- tiff asks the custody of the baby, Mary Louise, now two years old,,and alimony. Miss Sullivan, a member of the Twen- tieth Century Club and an elocutionist, was married to Mr. Summers Sept. 21, 19. The final separation was on Jan. 8, 19088. The baby was born in March. 1907. Mrs. Summers testified that on the day of the separation she and her. hus- band had a “little argument,’’ the na- ture of which had to do with Mr. Sum- mers’ temperamental diginclination for the duties of matrimony. He told her, she said, that he was busy all day in Circuit Attorney Sager’s office and wanted his freedom at night. The baby cried, he said, and he couldn't stand it. He wanted to be free when off duty —that is, official duty—to do as he pleased. Earned $100 to $150 a Month. Mrs. Summers said her husband told her he had a passion for roaming around in rural sections, alone with na- ture, and it was irritating for him to be called upon to explain where he had been on these eccasions. Mrs. Summers said her husband earned from $100 to $150 a month while he was an assistant to Circuit Attorney Sager. He had contributed only about $5 to the support of herself and the child, she said, since’ the separation. She testified that their home during ‘the time they lived together, with the ex- ception of one month, December, 1906, was with her mother, Mrs. Mary Sulli- van, at 4324 Cook avenue, where she and the baby still live. Mrs. Sullivan testified that the Sum- merses were absent from her home only two weeks.. The mother said each seemed to treat the ether well and she knew of nothing to cause the separation other than the reason given by Mr. Summers when he left his wife. Mary Louise, the baby who used to ery, was-in court during the whole pro- ceedings and for.an hour before the case was called. Mary Louise is a pret- ty child and she did not cry a single whimper,*though the Judge looked stern and the several lawyers present were solemn and serious. Mary Louise and her mother seemed devoted to each other. The child object- ed slightly when Mrs. Summers was called to the witness stand, but her grandmother spoke a word and she sat down quietly, eating a conkie. A little Then she sat down again and smiled. The counsel of record in the case, D. J. Sullivan of East St. Louis, an uncle of the plaintiff, is busy running for Circuit Judge in his district. At his request Attorney Thomas H. Cobb of St. Louis conducted the care, - Mr. Summers is said to be in Mexico, having gone to that country on a trip a few weeks ago. His wife said she did not know his whereabouts. On the stage Mrs. Summers is known by her maiden name, Helene) Sullivan. More than a year ago Mrs. Summers first filed suit for divorce, but this was withdrawn because of a technical error th the petition. It was generally un- derstood in social and political circles at that time that the cause of differ- ences between them had some relation to entertainments given by: Mr. Sum- mers at his “chicken farm’ west of Delmar Garden. Mr. Summers two years ago built a concrete bungalow which ne named “Grey View.”’ He raised chickeus there. It was current report that he enter- tained actresses to whose presence his wife objected. Miss Odette Tyler and other actresses appearing at Delmar Garden were mentioned among the guests. ' At the hearing of the divorce suit Friday nothing was said as to these matters, though before the first suit was filed Mrs. Summers wrote to the Post-Dispatch that she wished her friends to know that she did not ap- prove- the conduct of affairs at the bungalow. Mr. Summers said at the time that 1¢: was the simple life he was living in the country, and his wife said it was the Bohemian iife. illinois Central Shops to Open.

Miss Wolff, who signed a promise to leave Pastor Schenk’s family forever and surrender her two little girls, left St..

Dispatches from’ New York say no Gertrude Wolff was registered the Maine sailed Thursday, and tmmi- an assumed name, her steamer transportation with her, and telegrams received here tell of her embarkation on the Maine. The local immigration officials have not been able to learn How she obtained the money to pay her passage. -No funds were fur- nished by Dr. A. Siebert of 1647 South Jefferson avenue. who offered to pay her way to Europe on condition that she sign a ‘promise to break with the Schenk family. Girl Preceded Wife ' Here, Schenk admits that he sent for Miss Wolff two or three months before Mrs. Schenk’s arrival in this country, a few months ago, and that she lived at his flat, 1716 Ohio avenue, until Mrs, Schenk came. Schenk has been in America two years. In the event Schenk is arrested and his conviction obtained by the immi- gration officials, Mrs. Schenk and Ger- trude Wolff's two little girls will be deported also on the ground that they are without visible means of support, and are likely to become public charges. The maximum penalty for the offense with which the immigration officials will charge Schenk is a five-year peni- tentiary sentence and a $6000 fine..

The Prinzessin Alice almost took a cor- ner off Fort Wadsworth yesterday morning on her first attempt to get out of the harbor. Failing in that she ran; upon a pile of stones that had once formed the foundation for a bell tower. It was not until 3 o’clock this mern- ing that she was pulled off the stones.

(iS iS As 9 9 Sp fal to the Post-Dispatch. CARUTHERSVILLE, Mo., May 28.— A newly married drummer and his bride and a young couple trying to get mar- ried have caused @& commotion in ‘“Drummersville’—the name the South- east Missouri drummers have given to the excursion colony.on the “Cape Gi- rardeau.”’ John A. Wood, known among the drummers as the “Egg Twist’’ man of the Roth Tobacco Co. of Cape Girar- deau, boarded the boat Wednesday aft- ernoon with his bride, whe was Mrs. Dixie E. Cooper, a widow, and daugh- ter of Mayor R. W. Fowlkes of Par- ma, Me. They had eloped and had been mar- ried two hours before. All the drum- mers celebrated the arrival of Wood and his bride Wednesday night. Wood, under questioning, admitted that Mayor Fowlkes, who is a wealthy real estate man, and of an old Southern family, looked with disfavor on Weoid’s suit. Young Couple Board Boat When Wood and his bride bearded the “City ef Drummersville,” John A. Flentge, 18 years old, and Miss Mabel Haisch, 20 years old, both of Cape Gi- rardeau, got on. They have been trying te get married fer the last two weeks, but as Flentge is under age, his father, E. W. Fientge, postmaster of Cape Girardeau, and a widely known politician, had been able to foil his efforts. The Flentge family objetced to the marriage, en acceunt of the yeung man’s age. In the last two weeks young Flentge has traveled several hundred miles to different counties in the State in the endeavor to get a license. But his fa- ther has kept up with his movements and telegraphed ahead to each place that this son was under age. They now are planning to go to Tennessee. The drummers are scheming with them and suggesting al] sorts ef plans for the marriage. The drummers spent Friday in boem- ing different candidates for president ef the association. At a caucus Thurs- day night an effert was made te rail- road through J. W. Loomis of Charles- ton, Mo., but the attempt failed. Loom- is and W. J. Riley of St. Louis are the strongest candidates for the effice.. 10,000 See Mardi Gras. Our Speciat So , Set Tiffany style tor laine Belcher, for men; 600 beau- tiful gems to select froma week. .

The oeft-expressed regret that he was “only a switchman” while his father and other members of his family had “succeeded in life,” is believed to have been the reason why Arthur G. Tay- lor, 33 years old, a son of Dr. J. A. Taylor, a Des Moines (Io.) dentist, cut his throat and killed himself in his room at Ernest Link’s home in Venice. The suicide occurred Wednesday even- ing. The body was not found until Thursday night, when Taylor failed to respond to calls and an investigation was made. : Taylor was an “extra’”’ switchman for the Terminal Railroad, and last month only had seven working days. He fre- quently remarked bitterly that he seemed unable for some reason {0 “make good.”’ He was in a volunteer regiment during the war with Spain. An inquest was held Friday and his relatives have been notified by tele- graph. “A SYSTEM” SUITS FOR 9.50 Regular $14 and $15 grades, purchased at a discount by the Globe, 7th and Franklin av., and on sale for 9.50 té- morrow.

OMAHA, Neb., May 28.—Discovery by uw schoolloy of hidden masks and weapons under a Missouri! River bank near Eighteenth and Q streets led to the arrest this morning of three men suspected of having robbed the Over- elund Limited a ‘mile out ot Omaha Sat- urday night. The voy found three handkcrchiefs cut for nasks, three revolvers, flash- lights and other paraphernalia. He took the revolvers to his teacher and she informed the police. The place Was watched and when four men approached the hiding piace ezvrly thie morning three of them were arrest- ed. The fourth escaped. Seven sacks of mail, supposed to con- tain between $100,000 and Mian 4 in val- uables, were stolen in the holdup of the Overland. The prisoners gave the names of. D. W. Woods of Minneapolis, James Gor- don of Denver and Fred Tortensen of South Dakota. They were questioned separately and told a different story. The men today denied being acquaint- ed with each other, but in the belong- ings of One of them was found a photo- graph of all three, together with a woman, seated in an automobile. There is nothing to show where the picture ‘was made. Automatic Revolvers Found, The arrests were made after the de- tectives had been watching the spot 30 hours. Two of the revolvers were of automatic pattern and the other one an ordinary .38-caliber gun. Four hats were also found and Chief Briggs be- lieves they will aid in identifying the owners. An inventory of the paraphernalia cap- tured gives evidence that the owners were prepared for any emergency. Near. ly 200 rounds of ammunition was found, be ides the. three revolvers, handker- chiefs,and hats. The searchlight found is of the latést pattern and nearly new, The automatic revolvers each had two loaded magazines and were of expensive make. Gordon and Tortenaet were. brought te Omaha and the latter: pointed out to the police the place he lived at 324 North Fifteenth street. A search was made of his‘ room and two suit cases were found. One of them belonged to Woods, the third man of the trio. Mrs. Jerome Seibert, who runs the rooming house at that number, said Tortensen had béen at her place for some time, but that Woods came, there last week, two or three days before the Union Pacific hold-up. FLEET OF FEDERAL BOATS STOPS ON WAY TO GULF ) Two of Trio Belong to Coast Ar- tillery—Take on Supplies for Long Run. Three United States boats, under Fleet Commander Capt. J. C: Hitchcock, Quartermaster's Department, tied up at the Diamond Jo Line wharfboat Friday morning to take on supplies and coal on their way to the Gulf coast. The boats are “Lieut. William H. Smith,” “Lieut. Edgar F. Koehler,”’ and “Lieut. Willlam E. Neary.” The first two are attached to the Coast Artillery, and the latter is for the use of the of- |ficers at Fort Barancas and Fort Pick- ens at Pensacola. The “Smith” will go to Fort Fremont, near Charleston, S. C., and the “Koehler” to Fort Mor- gan on Mobile Bay. C. W. Peterson, engineer of the “Neary,” had the distinction of deliver- ing the Nixon torpedo boat “Gregory” to the Russian Government at Sebasto- pol. He took her across the Atlantic, the length of the Mediterranean, the Bosphorus and the Black Sea.

Letters from Prominent Physicians addressed to Chas. H. Fletcher. Dr. A. F. Peeler, of St. Louis, Mo., says: “I have prescribed your Castoria im many cases and have always found it an efficient and speedy remedy.” Dr. B. Down, of Philadelphia, Pa, says: “I have prescribed your Cas- toria in my practice for many years with great satisfaction to myself and benefit to my patients.” Dr. Edward Parrish, of Brooklyn, N. Y., says: “I have used your Cas- toria in my own household with good results, and have advised several ‘patients to use it for its mild laxative effect and:freedom from harm.” »- Dr. J. B. Elliott, of New York City, says: “Having during the past six Years prescribed your Castoria for infantile stomach disorders, I most heartily commend its use. The formula contains nothing deleterious to the most delicate of children.” Dr. C. G. Sprague, of Omaha, Neb., says: “Your Castoria is an ideal medicine for children, and I frequently prescribe it. While I do not advo- cate the indiscriminate use of proprietary medicines, yet Castoria is an exception for conditions which arise in the care of children.” Dr. J. A. Parker, of Kansas City, Mo., says: “Your Castoria holds the esteem of the medical profession in a manner held by no other proprie- tary preparation. It is a sure and reliable medicine for infants and chil- dren. In fact, it is the universal household remedy for infantile ailments.” Dr. H. F. Merrill, of Augusta, Me., says: “Castoria is one of the very finest and most remarkable remedies for infants and children. In my opinion your Castoria has saved thousands from an early grave. I can furnish hundreds of testimonials from this locality as ta its efficiency and merits.” Dr. Norman M. Geer, of Cleveland, Ohio, says: “During tlie fast twelve years I have frequently recommended your Castoria as one of the best preparations of the kind, being safe in the hands of parents and very ef- fective in relieving children’s disorders, while the ease with which such ® pleasant preparation can be administered is a great advantage.” cenuinE CASTORIA Atways Bears the Signature of f Tho Kind You Have Always Bought in Use For Over 3O Years.

ONE IN ST. LOUIS COURT Mrs. Carrie Hamilton Testifies, Then Takes Train and Is on Stage at Night. By means of photographs and de- scriptive matter exchanged by mail Mrs. Carrie Hamilton, actress, of St. Louis and Mrs. Leah Judd Sheldon actress, of Aberdeen, 8. D., reached the conclusion that they had married the same actor, and both filed suits for divorce. So said Mrs. Hamilton, tes- tifying in her own suit in Judge Sale’s court, The man in the double divorce pro- ceedings is known in Mrs. Hamilton's case as George Hamilton. In Mrs, Hamilton Sheldon. Mrs. Hamilton says that her husband’s stage name was Sheldon. Entertaining Audiences Nightly. Hamilton, or Hamilton-Sheldon, ig an actor. He is believed to be en tour in the West, entertaining audiences night- ly, despite the divorce suits directed against him. There have been six divorces in Mrs. Hamilton’s family already, and she re- marked to a Post-Dispatch reporter when her suit was filed that ‘divorce seemed to run in the family.” When she is in St. Louis she lives with her mother, Mrs. Nicoline Keller of 6575 St. Edward avenue. — But Thuraday, when her divorce suit was set f trial, she was with her company, filling a theatrical engage- ment in Louisiana, Mo. However, she made a flying trip to St. Louis, tripped prettily into the courtroom and told on the stand that her husband had offend- ed against the majesty of the law, which forbids a man to marry more than one woman at a time, as it forbids him to vote more than once. Actor Arouses Her Suspicion. Mrs. Hamilton told Judge Sale her first inkling that her husband was mar- ried came through a chance convéersa- later took the witness stand and recited: his lines when the Judge gave him the cue. | Mrs. Hamilton is 23. She whs 18 when . | she was led to the altar by Hamilton, } many years her senior. They separated in July, 1906, “He didri't support me,” remarked Mrs. Hamilton, and then she declared that the next news which came from her husband was news of his marriage. “That's funny,” Clyde Tressel re- marked when he learned the name of Mrs. Hamilton’s husband. “I was play- ing in Ohifo last year with a chap named George Hamilton Sheldon. We: were pals and I was ea witness when he married Leah Judd at Marion.”’ The name caused Mrs. Hamilton to start. “Goodness gracious,” she exclaimed, ‘my husband's stage name was George Hamilton Sheldon.”’ One Wife Sends Photograph. Tressel told Mrs. Hamilten how Mrs. Sheldon might be found and a letter was dispatched at once to her. ‘Please send me a minute description of the man you married—alse photograph,”’ was one of the requests in the letter. The description and the phetograph reached St. Louis promptly. Mrs. Hamilton felt sure she had made an important discovery. She was cen- vinced her husband had married “the other woman.” The two actresses wrote many letters. They confided in each other. All the news each received only served to make them more certain that they were wives ef the same acter and that he was “a bad actor.” Both Wives Allege Bigamy. Mrs. Hamilton filed her suit. Mra. Sheldon filed her suit. Both charge the defendant husband has two living wives, “Mrs. Sheldon will get her divorce in June,” seid Mrs. Keller, Mrs. Hamil- ton’s mother, Thursday. Mrs. Keller has been divorced ence and ig the mother of the seven-divorce family. Mrs. Hamilton did not tarry after her appearance in court. She caught a train in the afternoen and hurried back to Louisiana, where she appeared Thurs- day night, as vivacious and charming as ever, not missing a single act of her engagement because of her divorce suit. “A SYSTEM” SUITS FOR 9.50 Regular $14 and $15 grades, purchased at a discount by the Globe, 7th and Franklin av., and on sale for 9.50 to- morrow.

Are You a Fair- Minded Man Read This New Proposition Before Buying Memorial Day Clothes and it Will Appeal to Your Sense of Fairness. | —Here is a roposition which has never been made to you before and which will appeal to your brain, rather than to your eye. , | -

—We will have one of our representatives deliver to your home any garments which you care for. —Then we want you to have other stores deliver gar- ments priced the same as ours. —You and your family then, in the quiet of your home and away from all salesmen, are to compare the dif- ferent suits. vee Bape — Those which are the most perfect fitting and which show the highest class of wiehindndliie are to be chosen and the others sent back to the stores whence they came. —We want to settle once for all the question of supremacy in the matter of value-giving. If you are one of the many who imagined we were a high-priced institution, we want one opportunity to- blot the idea from your brain forever. —Now dont stop. Read the rest of it. Its vitally important. —-This proposition holds good in spite of the fact that we are now conducting by far the most important clothin sale in our career. o matter how busy we are, we wil not be too busy to show you our goods with extreme care and help you make selections to send home. —The point of the whole thing is this:— —There are a good many merchants who honestly believe their values are as good as ours. If you hear them talk and . then hear us, you will be between two fires. And you « wont know what to do. But. it you can get the actual suits out home, away from salesmen, away from all out- side influences, it wont take long to make up your mind which store makes the finest offer. —You probably need a new suit for Memorial Day and summer. Tomorrow will be your last satya day in which to get it, 1f you wish to wear it on the holiday. —If our proposition appeals to you as a good solution of a bi question, this 1s your invitation to try it out.

One searches in vain for a common ground of principle upon which Democrats and Republi- cans could have stood in yoting for Lorimer. No indication of a common principle appears in the speeches of the Democrats who joined the combine. Mr. Browne, the Democratic leader, in his speech defending his vote, said not a word about principle. There is no evidence in his speech that he believed that Lorimer would stand with the Democrats upon any party prin- ciple, or would support any Democratic policy. The policy of improving the waterways, of which Mr. Lorimer is an ardent advocate, is non-parti- san and common to all Democrats and Repub- licans of the Mississippi Valley. Lorimer differs from no other leader on this question except ia prominence. If the Democrats of the Illinois Legislature had picked a statesman in hearty sympathy with such Western Republican leaders as Dolliver, Cum- mines, La Follette, Bristow and others tn the Sen- ate who stand for genuine tariff reduction and against trusts and privileges, justification might be found for thefr combining with Republicans to elect him. He could have served Democratic ends in congressional legislation. But Senator- elect Lorimer is a machine Republican who stands for everything his party organization wants. He was elected by a machine combine. The Illinois incident emphasizes the peculiar situation exposed by the tariff debate and the tariff votes in Congress. Powerful elements of both parties are coming together for spoils. The Chicago report is probably a part of the explana- tion of the alliance which brought about the Lori- mer victory. It suggests that the cuestion “What is a Democrat?” may. be changed to a more piquant form, ‘“‘Why is a Democrat?” Dr. William J. Long, whom Roosevelt de- nounces as a nature faker, knows an office suita- ble to one ex-president: he would make him chief killer in a Chicago packing houso. “His interest in animals,” says the uoctor, “lies chiefly in the direction cf blood, butchery and brutality.” = = rw CONTRADICTORY CROP REPORTS. The confusion in the crop reports is becoming so great and the contradictions manufactured by speculators so frequent that they are losing value as indices of crop conditions. Mr. Patten persuaded a good many people that a famine of wheat was impending, although re- assuring bulletins were issued from the Agri- cultural Department which had sources of in- formation infinitely better and more numerous than any possessed by Patten or any other speculator. Last week it was given out that the wheat crop of Oklahoma and Western Kan- sas as ruined and that the two states together would not produce more than 40,000,000 bushels. This was immediately followed by reports that Kansas was good for 80,000,000 alone, and Ok- lahoma was not behindhand. Misleading reports which disturb the markets and make busizess ventures doubtful are pubiic mischiefs which ought by some means to be suppressed. The subject is probably within the sphere of effective legislative »owers. But with- out this governmental protection buyers and sell- ers can protect themselves. The government re- ports have ali the advantages which arise from a strong organization of trained experts. Why not accept them instead of catching at the mouth- ings of gamblers who are trying to clean up a fortune by running a corner? en he A de - SS Perhaps Lorimer, standpatter, high protection- ist Kepublican, who is said to have been elected by the aid of 5. Democratic votes, can answer the question: ‘What .s a Democrat?” —=— — = = = THE STORY OF A TOP. The story of Adam Guetterman, 80 years old, who dropped dead at Union Market Wednesday, and the tin top he carried in his hand, exempli- fies the social uses of publicity, When his little grandson, who heard his fa- ther read the story of the unknown old man’s death in Wednesday’s Post-Dispatch, had told of the top, identffication immediately followed. | Had not the simple, pathetic little story ap- peared in these columns the old man might have laid two or three days unwept. It is conceivable that he would have gone on the record among the “mysterious disappearances” and been remem- bered by his children and grandchildren with heavy hearts. 7 It is not necessary to live in glass houses, but in these modern days experience has repeatedly proven that publicity is indispensable, and when circumstances require, the light should be turned on the most trifling details of private life. No one can say when a social connection will be estab- lished with these trifles. And in such cases as in that of Adam Guetterman the benefit accrues to the individuals concerned. Only those who are morbidly sensitive or who have.something which they think it is to their interest to conceal, will deprecate the work of the newspapers in giving publicity to the mat- ter-pf-fact incidents of life which often appear so unimportant. Society is interested in every individual and, while his right to privacy should be scrupulously respected, society ‘has its rights, which have equal claim to respect. If people will co-operate with newspapers instead of trying to discourage and hamper the efforts of reporters, the accuracy and correctness of news reports will be improved, cleaner and better “news” wil} find its way to publicity and society wij] become so- clalized through a quickened interest in the for- tunes of its members. = = 4 If the Wright brothers have any business sense they are rare exceptions among inventors, What- ever may come of their claim of patent rights against the Herring-Curtis company, it is doubt- ful if they will make a large fortune.

To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. | And after all “the sun do move.” Yesterday’s Post-Dispatch contained an account of the debate between the college students and the sky pilot re- garding the shape of the earth. Not long ago I had an argument with a man on this subject, and there are legions of them here that hold his opinion, and he imagined that he clinched the argument, by say- ing, “If there is land north and south that never has been discovered or reached, it was just ag rea- sonable to believe that there was land both east and west that nobody had ever seen, and he almost stood on his head when I told him if he could go to the North Pole he couldn’t look in any direction but south. In vain did I explain that-if two men 10 miles apart travel north they would gradually lessen the distance between them as they traveled north. His strong point was that it is contrary to Scrip- ture, and of course he is correct. Why should anyone try to harmonize science with Scriptural teaching? Scientific research has demonstrated the fact that the earth, like other planets, is a spherical body; this being the case, it would be impossible for two persons on a high mountain to see all the kingdoms of the world, nor does science admit of the possi- bility of the dead rising from their graves and ap-| pearing in the cities. H. K. HAYES. — Bald Knob, Ark. Report Careless Barber. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. In reply to a letter in yesterday evening’s Post- Dispatch from ‘“‘Observer,” relative to the condition existing in a St. Louis barber shop, beg to state that we have a State Board of Barbers’ Examiners, cre- ated by law, which has for its object the elimination of just such conditions as the Observer refers to. This board has succeeded in improving the sanitary conditions of barber shops to a great extent, and it is only through their attention being called to such conditions as this that they may know where they exist. Rule 9 of the Prescribed Rules and Regula- tions of the Barbers’ State Board of Examiners, in conjunction with the State Board of Health, it is specifically demanded that each and every patron shall have fresh, clean towels, whether in schools, colleges or shops. The State Board has the power to revoke the license of any barber for the viola- tion of rules laid down by said board. It is the duty of “‘Observer’’ and all others who are familiar with these unsanitary conditions to notify the State Beard of Barbers’ Examiners, 312 Granite Building, Fourth and Market streets. The State Board of Hxaminers notified 150 proprietors some two months ago to comply with all the sanitary conditions as laid down by the State Board of Health. A number of these shops have not .complied with the notice. Hence they will be cited to appear before the board in the next few days and show cause why their license should not be revoked. If the public will co-operate, with the State Board of Barbers’ Examiners it will be instrumental in bringing about better service and more sanitary conditions in the barber shops. : J. C. SHANESSY.

To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. : Please publish the following in defense of the law requiring plumbers to pass an examination, for the information of ‘‘Fourex.’’ To begin with, the plumb- ing business is similar to the ministry in this re- spect, that “many are called, but few are chosen.” Most every man connected with the building indus- try, upon engaging in conversation with you will admit that the early part of his career was spent in an attempt to pick up the science of plumbing, but something disgusted him and he looked for an- other occupation, something less difficult and less tedious, less responsible, less technical, something most any rum-dum can learn. To start out with the required apprenticeship is now five years and six months, every day to be spent in learrning only a fair insight of the science, as it is impossible for an apprentice, no matter how intelligent or how much of a genius he may be, to cope with the var- ious complications of the business that the older mechanic might handle. This alone ig evidence enough that plumbing is not such a simple business. The mental strain on a man’s mind engaged in the plumbing business is far greater than inexperienced persons or the ‘‘dubb’”’ that can only tell the differ- ence between the monkey wrench and a claw ham- mer is capable of conceiving, to say nothing of the actual physical labor and endurance that is demanded of the mechanic. I know for a fact that if a man knows his business, no exam- ing board can turn him down, and those that don’t ought not to be allowed to jeopardize the pubiie health and ruin their property. PLUMBER. Street Department Ruins Trees. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. A city ordinance makes it unlawful for a person to plant or trim trees without the permission of the City Forester. Why then does the City Forester hot see that the Street Department, in making a street, does not ruin the trees that are already on the block? It has been learned that the residents of the 4300 block of College avenue will be allowed but two and one-half feet between the pavement and the curbstone in which to plant trees. This is not enough. Why not allow three feet so that the future growth of the trees would not be retarded and so that the street could be made with as few cut roots and ruined trees as possible? This is food fér thought for the Forester. LIFE. ne THE UNREAD ‘ENGLISH. From “England and the English,” by Price Collier. The great bulk of the English people read nothing, literally nothing; he who knows something of rural England will agree te this; the casual and occasional reader reads, as we have shown, fiction, biography, history, travels, and no small amount of :theology in a Uiluted form; the large middle class read and trust their periodical literature and their newspapers; the students and real readers, who feed their minds as other men feed their bodies, read with more thor- oughness and patience than any men I know. The preliminary examinations for any college at Oxford, Cambridge, Edinburgh, or Dublin are trifling as compared with the entrance examinations at Har- vard, but, on the other hand, both the classical and mathematical men who take the highest rank in England go through an amount of reading that our men hardly dream of. In Arherica there fs a very | education of the hare; in Englard th 7 a MULTIPLYING COMMISSIONS. From the New York Evening Sun. Missouri is about to be subjected to a campaign of education. Gov. Hadley, the Republican “reformer,” who suc- ceeded the Democratic reformer, Folk, now making hay on the chautauqua cir- cuit, has decided that the State must have a public utilities commission, The Legislature would not create one and as the Legislature presumably repre- sents the people, the people must be | educated up to the necessity of having such a commission. Very likely the next Legislature will ‘‘give the Gov- ernor what he wants” as other legisla~ tures have given other governors what they wanted. There is nothing so timid as a legislator except a whole legisla- ture when a loud noise which sounds like public sentiment is made in his or its vicinity, and the echoes of one re- iterant voice have often been mistaken | for the utterance which troubles legis- lative dreams. Yet when all is consid- ered that should be, Gov. Hadley’s vic- tory, if he wins it, may not be such @ victory for the people as alleged. The very fact that it is necessary, in the opinion of the Missouri executive, to educate the people to the necessity of the proposed commission might ave anyone but aa inveterate “reformer pause. Commission of one sort and ra other have been established in “er country to discharge & epspesenneay: ss legislative, executive and judicial 7 tions which is contrary to the spirit our governmental theory. — | A GREAT CAREER AHEAD.

King Larry messed one ba!l on second baso and that allowed one of the Browns’ scores. Joss put too much twist on one ball and it went wild when a man ‘was on first. That poner the Browns tally the other run. There was a sacGentaite lack of gin- ger on the St. Louis team, due to the fact “they weren’t hitting well...

Lefthanded hitters are what are needed to beat Cleveland. The Naps haven't any lefthanded pitchers. But they have a strong staff of righthanders, who are especially good against righthanded hit- ters. If Stone and Hoffman, both left- @ the Browns had their regular out- would mean many more base hits. As it is now, Hartzell is the only lefthand- ed man on the list, both Griggs and Mc- Aleese, the substitute outfielders, being righthanders. ‘ The Naps are mostiy righthanded hit- ters, too. Goode and Easterly were tlie Only southpaw swingers in Thursday’s game. Catcher Clarke also hits either way. Righthanded pitchers, or more especially ‘“‘spit-ball’’ pitchers, are ef- fective against Cleveland. McAleer de- pends mostly on Pelty and Powell to beat this team. Powell is named as the twirler for the second game. Wad- dell, though a lefthander, ts strong against Cleveland when he has one of his good days. Graham beat the Naps one game this spring and lost to them another time. Harry Howell is a val- uable pitcher against Larry’s team and he may be brought into service in the game Saturday or Sunday.

The kids, under the leadership of the scrappy Bresnahan, won six and lost six games while tour- ing the East, a record to be proud of considering all the conditions. The Cardinals will be on the road Fri- day and open a series against the Cin; cinnati team on Saturday. Sith Cincin- nati and Pittsburg have to be played before Bresnahan takes his boys back home. The general impression in New York as well as in all the other Eastern cities, is that Bresnahan has the start cof a great baseball team, and that he is the proper man to make a winner-in St. Louis.’ With a team weaker than the elub last season, as for as axtual play- ing strength is concerned, Bresnahan has gone out and fought gamely aguinst the big teams of the National Leagve and made a snowing that is most ad- mirable to the fans and most commend- able to himself. The team opencd in the Edst against Brooklyn, and found the Superbas in grand form. St. Louis won but one game of the four played. In’Philade'- phia they bumped in to stormy weather. Only one game was played and the Phil- lies were the victors. But it was ir Boston that the Cardinals made ihem- selves known. They made aie claan sweep of the series there, four straight. Going to New York, thev opened in a most auspicious manner. beating the Giants in the first gume, in spite of the fact that Christy Mathewson was pitching for New York. The next two games were won by the Giants and the last game was postponed because of rain. Roger Keeps Them Hustling. Bresnahan himself ts respons:hbie for much of the success of the Cardinals. His catching and his great hitting and base running have won many games already for his boys. He keeps them all fighting in order to stand the pacs he himself sets. Bresnahan thinks many of the St. Louis players have improved greatly since the season opened, but he hints that there will be several changes made before he begins the season of - 1919. He is already working up-one or two trades that will land a stafitm St duouis and Re is watching for the live ones in the minor leagues. Roger is deter- mined to take only such players as will fit into his ideal team and refuses to consider anyone. else. —_—~@o—— The St. Malachys want a game for Sunday and for other Sundays, with teams playing in the Il7-year-old class.

AOE OA F “riove Fern prove the rule—eveu Arparently old Dame Fortune wants the worst to happen to the Browns all at once. There was probably no time during the entire season last year when the team was so badly handicapped as it is now, when it needs every asset. The club boasts the first and second hitters in the entire league, and both are in the hospital. Jimmy sStepheng, who is not in every game, is the next best hit- ter on the club, with about .265 per- sentage. That is more than .100 below the figure Hoffman has oeen batting. Hiowever, hard-luck tales win no pen- nants. © Goode certainly lived up to his name Thursday. This Cleveland team is just beginning ‘o right itself. Starting with almost as nany misfortunes as the Browns are now undergoing, the Blues apparently became discouraged at the outset. At mesent Turner is back in the game, Goode has rounded to the form such as all but pulled Cleveland into the cham- pionsiip last year .and the pitchers are improving daily. The Biues have the makirgs of a formidable team and by the middle of July should be a strong factor in the race. After ail, the real weakness of the Cardinals’ club lies in its pitching staff. Reger has worked his men up to a point where the- last ounce of efficiency is obtained from them, both on attack and defense. But-the pitchers seem to be wanting in steadiness. Lush and Sallee have been the most reliable of the ourplit and even thc latter has had his neryous moments., Today Johnny Lush seems the only dependable staff man of all the Bresnahan reserv«s.

A Chicago policeman Thursday stopped an auto containing James J. Jeffries and party. The policeman stated that the machine was exceeding the speed limit. Jeffries announced that it was not, and mentioned his name to the policeman. After which the officer decided he would be unable to prove the actual rate at which Mr. Jeffries had been moving and the party was released. Question: Was the po- liceman wise? The Eastern clubs can congratulate themselves on one fact—with the ex- ception of the Washington team, per- haps—they made a much better showing on the initial round against the sup- posedly strong Western teams of the American League than they did last year. St. Louis stung every club but Philadelphia; however, Detroit, Cleve- land and Chicago succumbed: and the East took back a fine percentage of victories. Perhaps the New York club pleased fans better than any of the other teams, it having stood the test to the extent of winning half its games. As the club finished a bad last the previous season Stallings is surely en- titled to a little self-esteem. series with the weakest club in either League, the Boston Na- tionals. Perhaps it is to its successive victories over this club that the team owes its present tenure of first place. For those Cubs are right on the trail of the leaders and are improving with every game. But one full game sepa- rates the Pirates and the Chicago club and Wagner and company are under the strain of’ knowing that they cannot falter ever so slightly without having the world’s champions stop them.

Three of the best-known sporting men in the United States, men whose names -have long been known to followers of the turf, athletic events, the prize ring and the goddess of chance, are ‘‘down and out,” as they would be likely. to express their conditions. During the present week the news columns have contained the names of Edward Corri- gan, Patrick Sheedy and Charles E. Davies in connection with events that indicate their near approach to the end of their careers. Pat Sheedy is at his home in New York suffering from fatty de;eneration of the heart. His physicians say that he cannot live, but the gambler — this statement. Ed Corrigan, once “the Master of Hawthorne,’ is nursing his dying wife at Lexington, Ky., with less than $2000 left of a fortune that was once rated in millions. Past 70 years of age, the future holds little of promise for him. “Parson”? Davies is ill at the home of his sister in Chicago. He is a vic- tim of a nervous breakdown and his physician holds ou: little hope of his recovery. Once Richest, Now Poorest. In comparing the present condition of the three men it is interesting to note that Corrigan, the man who once possessed many times the wealth of the others, now has least. He is al- most penniless while Sheedy and Davies each has enough to keep the | wolf from the door should they re- cover from their ephanw fils and live for many years, Pat Sheedy, famed all rer the world as a monarch of gamblers,, known equally well in New York, Paris, Cairo, Constantinople, Yokohama and San Francisco, is the most picturesque figure the world of chance has pro- duced in generations. He is known everywhere as a “square” gambler and. yet in his own cynical philosophy he denies that he deserves the reputa- tion. The best he ever claimed for himself was that he never cheated himself. As to whether he cheated others wouid depend entirely on the strict meaning put on the word “cheat.” Did Not Claim Honesty. Sheedy was always willing to talk and he always talked entertainingly. would defend the occupation of the gambler with a wit that was con- vineing, and would as suddenly shift and declare that he had lived a mis- take all his Mfe and that he would now be much better off if he had be- come a jeweler or a shoe salesman, “I’m on the square now,’’ he once said, “but I’m willing to shift if any- body can show me that I'll be enough the gainer by doing so. If anybody can show me any scheme by which I can get some of the rich men’s money, I want to buy my way once,” , When considering the question of his own life, Sheedy remarked: ‘I have climbed the gambler’s ladder rung by rung and when I reached the top I found these words staring ‘ne in the face: ‘You have been a fodl.’ In the eyes of my fellow citizens I have been a lawbresker all my life, and yet I have never been raided, have never been ar- rsted and I have never taken an oath. “And what have I got to show for it all?

Pierpont Morgan aft- er its return. The painting was stolen from an art gallery in London and for % years was in hiding. Then Adam Worth, the man who stole it, offered to return it, making the offer through Sheedy. The ‘transaction put Sueedy in a light | that was not enviable and vet those who knew him never suspected for a moment that he was anything more than he pretended to be, the man through whom the negotiations for the return of the picture were made—an unwilling 2gent of a thief. Sheedy gave his “‘word”’—his sole asset—to the thief and to those will- ing to pay the reward that the pic- ture would be returned and that there would be no prosecution. His word was taken and the money, about $30,- 000, was given to Sheedy and was by Jim given to the holder of the pic- ture. It was returned as promised after. having made several trips. ,across the Atlantic and after having spent years in storage warehouses, Perhaps Sheedy was selected for the negotiations because of his known love of art. He was in St. Louis a few years ago trying to sell a~re- markable production by Henner, Mu- rillo’s ‘““Magdaleny’ a Ziem, and sev- eral other paintings. The gambler valued the “Magdalen” at $50,000. Says Gambling Does Not Pay. The principal reasons that Sheedy advanced against the life of a gam- bler is that it does not pay. “If I were a jeweler or a shoe sales- man.” he once. remarked, “and had achieved a reputation in either of those lines as I have as a gambler, I would be a man pointed out and com- mended, a man everyone would be proud to know. But as a gambler the greater my reputation the worse off I am. \ “Tf I had it to do over again I would not be a gambler. The same energy put forth in another direction will pro- duce better results. There’s More money in selling peanuts. But I wouldn't take a whole lot for what it has taught ae Sheedy was often seen at racetracks when racing was mo: vogue than it is today and yet he er bet a dol- lar of his own money on a horse. “It is too fierce a game for me,” he would say. He would bet money for others, but none for himself. He also had a horror of ;the stock exchange. he would say. “Patrick is willing to take a chance, but he wants the chance. If the game is with marked cards he must know the markings.’’ . Bheedy came to St. Louis some years ago from Cairo, Egypt, where he was running a gambling house. ‘“] am ‘here to.test the honor of an American gen- 'tleman,” he gave as his reason for the visit. Within a few hours the ‘Amer- 4can gentleman,’ a son of a St. Louis |} millionaire’ paid $3500 lost in Sheedy’s gambling house, together with the ex- penses of the trip from Egypt to St. Louis. SNeedy afterward sued the son of an- otner wealthy St. Louisan for $20,000, alleging that he had Bought the claim from another man. The suit was after- ward dismissed and if there was a set- tlement outside of court the secret has been kept by Sheedy and the few oth- ers who knew it. And now Sheedy, who is not quite 60 years old. is “sitting in” a game with death, Dispatches from New York say that he fighting with his old-time pluck. Should he die this ix the epi-. taph that he once suggested as fit- ting: ‘ “Here lies Patrick Sheedy, gambler. He might have cheated others; himse:- he did not cheat.” Old War Exgle Is Drooping. ; Ed Corrigan was once a great figure on the American turf. ‘The Corrigan racetracks. the Corrigan horses, the Corrigan stock farms—a‘'l these were known to all followers of racing. Hg bred horses in California and Ken- tucky, horses that were raced all over the globe and carried Corrigan’s fame everywhere. A natural fighter, he made many enemies, enemies that he might as well have had as his friends. He built the Ingleside track in Call- fornia, the Elm Ridge track in Kan- sas City and the Hawthorne track at Chicago. He helped finance the City’ Park track at New Orleans. f Trouble with rival racing men started the trouble which the law. continued. The Corrigan interests were dissipated In various ways and his millions van- ished like mist. His note for $24,000 re- ‘cently came due in Chicago and Corri- gan could not meet it. All he had left ‘was an interest in the Hawthorne track. He journeyed to Chicago to deed that interest to the friend who had indorsed the note, The frieng took the deed and gave Corrigan a bonus of $2000, all that is left to the former racing king who is now past 70 and without a single horse. Parson Davies in Athletics. Parson Davies has little in common with either Corrigan or Sheedy except is in sports. His dctivittfes have been largely confined to athietic events. He began his career as a promoter 0. Walking matches and afterwards be- came interested in the prize ring. He got his soubriquet of “Parson” because he looked like a preacher and -talked much like one. He was quiet and well-’ mannered, spoke in a low voice and Seldom if ever used profanity. He was the manager of Peter Jack- son when the negro giant was a possi- ble pugilistic champion.

Savay Bid for Prominence.

By Leased Wire From the New York Bureau of the Post-Dispatch. NEW YORK, May 28—The Count de Lafayette, great-grandson of Gen. La- fayette, who represented his family at the unveiling of the Rochambeau statue in Washington, issued a card today re- pudiating relationship to N. Lafayette Savay, organizer of the American Civic Alliance. Emerson McMillan of New York, now in St. Louls, is a vice-presi- dent of this alllance. The Count’s skepticism of Savay’s claims will be a shock to many promi- nent American families who entertained him in the belief that he was a descend- ant of the Marquis. Savay is not in the city today. On the letterhead of the Amercan Civic Alliance, of which he is the or- ganizer and which is an Organization for political study, his name is at the head with the superscription, “Lawyer and Publicist.’’ Dr. James B. Wasson of St. Thomas Church, is treasurer and Charles A. Hale secretary. Mrs. Donald McLean, president-gen- eral of the Daughters of the American Revalution, who presided at a meeting on Jan. 6, when Savay was introduced as great-grandson of Lafayette, is one of 12 vice-presidents, and like the others in the organization never had occasion to believe that Savay was other than what he represented himself to: be. “Relatives” Meet at Reception. The Count de Lafayette first encount- ered Savay at the Fifth avenue home of a fashionable woman, who arranged the meeting unknown to Savay. When the Count entered Savay started to a detaining hand on his arm and begged him to stay. “You should be acquainted, since you are relatives,’’ she is quoted as saying. Upon formally being introduced, the Count inquired of Savay to what branch of the family he belonged. “My mother told me I am a grandson of the Gen. de Lafayette,’’ Savay re- plied, according to the story, but failed to explain further the family connection. Despite the Count’s assertion that Savay is not a descendant of the Mar- quis, this year's issue of ‘‘Who’s Who in New York’’ numbers him as a ‘‘great- grandson of Gen. Lafayette on his mother’s side.’’ Savay Among Notables. At the first annual dinner of the American Civic Alliance, held at the Plaza Motel April 15, Savay sat be- tween the Chinese Ambassador and the Japanese Ambassador. He was flanked on either side by such personages as Gen. Nelson A. Miles, Theodere P. Shonts, Nikola Tesla, Spencer Trask, Sir Purdon Clarke, the Marquis d’Autier de la Rochebrandt, Bradley Martin Jr., Henry Clews and scores of other nota- bles. At the dinner he was asked if he were a descendant of Gen. Lafayette, ! and, smiling amiably, he replied: “They tell me I am.” The object of the alliance founded by Mr. Savay is to divide the nation into eight classes, namely, employers, employes, educators, statesmen, jurists, scientists, theologians and’ journalists. guide the destiny of the nation. He would have them enjoy life jobs at a salary of $18,000 a year. Among the vice-presidents of the al- liance are Bishop Burgess, Emergon Mc- Millan, Bishop Greer, Admiral. Schley, Bradley Martin Jr., Mrs. McLean, Isaac L.. Rice, the Rev. Dr. Joserh Silvermat and S. Sherwood Dunn. George Harvey, editor of Harper's signed from the organization, the Rev. Dr. Thomas B. Slicer. ~ “T hadn't the faintest reason to doubt that Mr. Lafayette-Savay was not a descendant of the Marquis,’’ said Mra, McLean, ‘‘and this news is most %ur- prising to me.”’ v

The assembly’s criticism of the courts, which was unsparing, was based on the report of the committee on chureh ce- operation, which report was written by William Henry Roberts D. D., LL. D., the stated clerk of the assembly, chair- man of the committee and for more than twenty-five vears regarded as the law-giver of the assembly. Adhere to Calvinism. It set out in effect that, of the three established doctrines with respect to the relation of church and state, the theory wherein church and state possess dis- tinct jurisdiction is the preferable view and will be held to in the Presbyterian church. The report rebukes the Tennessee courts for presuming to pass judgment upon matter of church doctrine. It rec- ognizes the right of courts to pass /upon disputes concerning the property, but where a relizious helief is concerned the report contended that this shall be ad- judicated in the church counefis. Lost Suits in Courts. The report cof the committee was based on the legal action begun by anti-con- solidation members of the Cumberland church wherein they were supported by the Tennessee courts and given posses- sion of a number of valudble churches: which othei wise would have hecume the property of the united church. It was the contention fn these suits that the union forced members of the Cumberlend church to recognize a doc- trine different from the one to which they had originally subscribed.

FIVE OTHERS ARE HELD Oklahoma Grand Jury, Third Summoned, Returns True Bills Charging Fraud. TULSA, Ok., May 28.~—Indictments charging fraud in the Muskogee town lot cases wene returned by the United States grand jury last night against Gov. Charlies N. Haskell, F. B. Severs, W. T. Hutchins, C. W. Turner, A. Z. English and W. R. Eaton. The specific charges against Gov. Has- kell and the five other men indicted are that they conspired to defraud the United States, under section 5460 of the Revised Federal Statutes, in obtaining 200 town lots in Muskogee by fraudulent scheduling when Creek Nation town lots were scheduled eight years ago. There are four indictments covering three groups of cases as follows: First against William T. Hutchins and Clarence B, Turner; second, against ‘Gov. Haskell, Clarence B. Turner and Walter R. Easton; and third, against Frederick B. Severs and A. Z. English. These indictments cover 155 alleged offenses, ef which #4 are charged against Haskell, Turner and Eaton. Bond in each case was fixed at $5000, and was furnished promptly. Ar- rangements for the trials have not been made, but it is thought the cases will be heard at an early date. This is the second indictment for Gov. Haskell in the Tulsa case. The first bills were dismissed on a technicality, and the Federal authorities at once ve- gan preparing new evidence along the dines indicated by the Court’s ruling. The fight before the grand jury had many sensational features. Numerous witnesses from Ohio and elsewhere tes- tified. ‘Twenty were on the stand yes- terday. Haskell Charges Unfairness. Gov. Haskell tn discussing his indict- ment today, said: “As a result of four Government at- torneys and an army of secret service men surrounding the grand jury and limiting the testimony to just what suit- ed them, indictments have been ob- tained against me. I am thoroughly satisfied that when the whole facts are made known in the open, the Govern- ‘}ment at Washington will not approve of these cases, which practically all the people of the locality know have no merit and that there has been no vio- lation of the law In any particular. ‘The later disclosures in this case wiil speak for themselves, and show plainly the origin and intent connected with them. The only embarrassment to me in the trial is that many witnesses must be brought from a great distance and will result in much other expense, which, unfortunately, I have not the means to defray. However, my numer- ous friends in Oklahoma, including many Republicans, have generously shared the expense up to date, a kind- ness that I have sincerely appreciated, ‘Land I only regret the expense of fur- ther proceedings on that account.” Editer Is Cited, Interest in the land fraud proceedings was heightened by an order from Judge Marshall, citing William Stryker, editor of the Tulsa Democrat, te appear before the United States Court at McAlester, June 14, to answer a charge of contempt of court. The order was issued an @ petition of District Attorney W. H. Gregg, who alleges that Stryker has been publishing improper matter about the investigation. The grand jury returning the indict- ments is the third summoned in the case. The second, which convened April 29, was dismissed before it had a chance to vote an indictment. This was on the application of the Gevern- ment attorneys, who declared that tho jurymen had been tampered with. Gov.. Charlies N. Haskell left this morning for Muskogee to arrange his | bonds,

It will keep 48 hours or longer on ice. ° If you use only part, you can leave she rest in the can and use it next day. You don’t need to buy in small cans for fear the opened cans will spoil. Our Object Is This It may seem better for us to sell six ounces for 5 cents than sixteen ounces for 10 cents. But it isn’t. Our interest lies in making this milk economical. It should completely dis- place milkman’s milk. Van Camp’s Milk serves every purpose fully twice better than raw milk. You will use more of it when you learn these facts, and learn the economical can. Then the usual milk sold in 5-cent cans is often a vastly inferior milk. ' So we urge you to buy the 10-cent cans and get the full worth of your money. And don’t buy from day to day, as you bought milkman’s milk. Buy a case at a time and get the case discount. Then you will have the best milk in America for less than poor milk costs. Thin milk, with too little water evaporated, costs just the same aS Van Camp's. So you get just as much of Van Camp’s as you get of the poorest milk on the market. But you spend more than you ought when you way any milk in the 5-cent size. Figure It Out — — ee Van Camp’s is simply rich Holstein milk, with two-thirds the water evaporated. The milk as it comes to you is 28 per cent solids, 8 per cent butter fat. ‘If you replace the water which we take out, you should get rich milk for about six cents per quart. : That is based on —— the 10-cent cans, and eve ties them by the case. For grocers give discounts on cases. But the 5-cent cans—even when bought by the case—make the milk cost you over eight cents per quart when you replace the water. So you will see you are payin ft ocem one-third more when you buy the le an The trouble is here: Most who buy the 5-cent cans don’t use Camp’s for cooking. They use it for coffee and cereals, rhaps. But they still use raw milk or making milk dishes. And there they lose the greatest service that Van Camp’s Milk can render. Milk dishes made with Van Camp’s have a flavor and richness which raw milk never gives. You will use Van Camp’s forever when you once learn the difference. The reason is that raw milk separates. The butter fat rises and the solids fall. When milkman’s milk is used in cook- ing, it generally comes very far from whoie milk. Van Camp’s is whole milk. 4t has all of the butter fat, all of the solids it had when it came from the cow. It will make your milk dishes twice as delicious as dishes made of raw milk. Van Camp’s Milk Keeps Van Camp’s Milk will k because it is thoroughly sterilized. opened
