He said he’d rather have me be a sugar king than a chorus man, so he told me not ts get married. “There. are two ciasses of unfortu- rates in this world who cannot afford to marry young.

“SUNK IN STORM: TWENTY PERISH Russian Torpedo Boat Kam- _bala Founders During Trials in Black Sea.

ST. PETERSBURG, June 12. — The submarine torpedo boat Kambala of the Russian Navy, has been sunk in a storm in the Black Sea while the boat wes unc.rgoing trials. Twenty members of her crew, includ- ing the Captain, First Lieutenant and chief engineer, perished. The following details of the founder- ing have been obtained here : “The submarine flotilla was conduct- ing a series of night maneuvers against the battleship squadron with the idea of forcing an entrance into the harbor. During the operations the Kambala, upon which was Capt. Bielikoff, the commander of the flotilla and in charge of the maneuvers, unaccountably left her course and swung across the bows of the battleship Rostislav. The two vessels collided and the submarine sank instantly in 28 fathoms of water. The commander of the submarine, Lieut. Aquilonouff, was on deck at the time of the accident. He swam away and was saved, but Capt. Bielikoff, Midshipman Tuchkoff, a warrant of- ficer and 17 members of the crew perished. The Kambala—the word in English means flounder—was of 180 tons and constructed on the German type. The flotilla in the Black Sea consisted of four German and one Holland subma- rine. An attempt will be made to raise the Kambala. WEATHER TO BE UNSETTLED AND CHANCES ARE GOOD FOR RAINS TONIGHT OR SUNDAY THE TEMPERATURES.

One hundred and eighty miles away the message was pi up by the wireless operator on the Prinzess Irene, which had h New York two days later than the Slavonia. The Prinzess made full speed ahead, changing her course, and reached the h | less passenger steamship when those aboard her were tt proaching a condition of panic. As in the case of the steamship Re- public, which was wrecked in a collis- ion near New York several months ago, the wireless appeal was sent out when the Slavionia struck. It was the only hope, as the great vesse]) was two and a half miles from Flores Island in the Azores. It was shortly before midnight. of last Wednesday that the wireless distress signal was received on board the Prin- zess Irene. The operator answered and immediately got a message in reply say- ing the Slavonia was ashore and where, and asking the Prinzess Irene to come to her assistance. 110 Passengers Transferred. The Prinzess Irene arrived alongside the Slavonia Thursday afternoon. It was arranged that she should take on board the cabin passengers of the Cu- narder and work to that end was at once begun. All Thursday night was taken up with the transfer and the 110 passengers, men, women and children, were on board by daylight. The trans- fer was made without a single acci- dent, Early Friday morning the Prinzess Irene left the Slavonia for Gibraltar. In the meantime the wireless calls for help sent out by the Slavonia had been heard by the Hamburg-American liner Batavia, which also hastened to the scene of the wreck.

_ Busch Says Lines Will Be Laid at Once From Caddo Fields to St. Louis. r _ ° —_— BOUGHT LACLEDE CO:

Syndicate Owns Only Fran- chise; an Advantage Over All Other Concerns. August A. Busch told a Post-Dispatch correspondent in New York Saturday that natural gas would be piped to St. Louis from the Caddo fields in Louis- lana as soon as the pipes could be laid here to connect with the mains of the Laciede .Gas Light Co., which passed into the hands of a syndicate of St. Louis capitalists. The plans of the syndicate contem- plate piping natural gas to St. Louis for about 45 cents a thousand cubic feet. As natural gas has 40 per cent more heat units to the cubic foot than arti- ficial gas the effect of piping natural gas here at 45 cents would be to reduce the gas rate to 32 cents a thousand. Mr. Busch said that his father, Adol- phus Busch, the brewer, subscribed for $1,000,000 worth of the Isaaclede Gas Light Co.’s stock. “The important features of the sale of the Laclede Gas Light Co. to the St. Louis syndicate is that natural gas will be piped to St. t.ouls just as soon as the lines can be laid from the Caddo fields,’ said Mr. Busch. ‘‘We propose to run the natural gas pipe lines up the Mississippi Valley to convey the gas from our lands to the cities where it can be utilized for fuel and light.”’ Others Heavily Interested. Mr. Busch said that others interested heavily in the syndicate that now owns the Laclede Gas Light Co. were Thomas H. West of the St. Louis Union Trust Co., William K. Bixby, retired million- aire, Bert Walker of the _ brokerage firm of G. H. Walker & Co., and Charles H. Huttig of the Third National Bank. Thomas H. McKittrick and Charles A. _ Stix are said also to be heavily inter- ested in the syndicate. The Busch-Everett syndicate, which hag a franchise to pipe natural gas to New Orleans, owns 280,000 acres of Matural gas producing lands in Caddo Parish, La., near ‘Shreveport. Financial men believe also that Theo- Gore N.

The syndicate headed by James O. Rodgers of Iola, Kan., which is apply- ing for a natural gas franchise here, is not similarly situated.

PHILADELFHIA, June 12. — Mrs. Pauline Neff Metzger Munyon is in a State of nervous collapse at her mag- nificent mansion, north of Overbrook. The continued absence of her hus- band, “‘Prof.’”’ J. M. Munyon; the pro- tracted illness of her father, D. J. Neff of Altoona, Pa. and the severe strain incident to ea strenuous social season are taid to ne the causes leading up to her breakdown. Her condition has been such that no messages could be sent to her, but she rallied slightly and was re- ported slightly better today. “Prof.’’ Munyon left his home 10 days @f£0, saying that he was going to Bos- ton on a business trip. Since that time he has not communicated with Mrs. Munyon. Those who spoke for the “professor” at his offices offered no explanation concerning his absence, nor did they give any infurmation as to when he would return. At his residence it was suid that he was away on business. “Prof.” Munyon and Pauline Neff met and were married in New York on April 9, 1908, and spent their honeymoon at the Knickerbocker Hotel, that city.

Special to the Post-Dispatch. ROCKFORD, Ill, June 12.—The first arrest in the effort to clear the mys- tery of the murder of aged Margaret Grippen, at’ her home in Winnebago, April 2, was made today, when Harry A. Sage was held as a suspect at Lansing, Mich., at the request of Rock- ford authorities. Police Sergeant Reed left Rockford today for Lansing and will bring Sage back with him. Sage was a wall paper cleaner here and did some work for Mrs. Grippen a short time before she was murdered. It was learned that he disappeared soon after the crime was discovered. Stories that Sage had trouble with Mrs. Grippen over his work and that he had made threats caused search to be made for him at once. Delivery, of a letter to the wrong address,;thre3 days 8Z0 gave the police a clew as to Sage's whereabouts. Wife Is Questioned. As soon as it was known Sage had been found, his wife who is employed at a Rockford hotel, was taken to the Sheriff's office and questioned. She insisted she knew no reason why she should be questioned and her story tended to prove an alibi for Sage. She explained his departure as the result of her decision to separate from him be- cause of his 2ddiction to the liquor hab- iit. She maintained Sage was at their home at the time the murder is. be- lieved to have been committed. Sage told the Lansing police his ar- rest was a joke. He adniitted having been near the scene of the crime, but denied being implicated in it.

The captain of the Berlin is confident that Bennett was not aboard when the beat left Genoa. Bennett’s wife, who had been travel- ing with him through Italy, did not see him after the boat started. On arrival of the boat here, the American and German consuls and the police of Genoa and Naples were notified.

The boy found Harmon lying on the floor, his legs doubled un- der him, and his head and shoulders resting on a couch. Beside him was a double-barreled shotgun with one barre! discharged. The charge of birdshot with which the gun was loaded had entered the right cheek of Harmon, shattering the jaw- bone, and penetrated the brain. A post- mortem examination showed that the shot had lodged at the back of the head, just beneath the skull. The shotgun with which Harmon was killed always hung loaded upon the wall just tbove the couch bes je which the body was found, and the family hold the belief that Harmon was taking the gun from the wall when the hammer caught on one of the pegs and. the weapon was accidentally discharged. Reported Boy Murdered, The Carmichael boy was returning a horse which his grandfather, W. A. Harmon, a half mile away, had bor- rowed from Raymond Harmon. As he neared the house he heard a shot, ani when he entered the room after leav- ing the horse at the barn, he found Harmon's dead body on the floor. Byron ran across the road to the home of a neighbor and gave the alarm. Coroner E. C.: Park of Flora held an inquest’ the same evening. The verdict of the Coroner’s jury was that Ray- mond Harmon came to his death from the accidental discharge of a shotgun. When Byron Carmichael found th-= body, he told the neighbors that his cousin had been murdered, and the re- port quickly spread throughout Clav County thay the youth had been slain and robbed. Thorough investigation dispelled this rumor, and it was then held that Har- mon had committed suicide, but Coro- ner Park and the Harmon family scout- ed this. The fact that the gun was loaded with bird shot and the position of the wound, they declared, made the suicide theory untenable. The Harmons maintain Raymond Harmon had no rez- son for taking his life. Relatives Alarmed, When the killing of Harmon became known to his relatives, there was much nodding of heads and many a whispered “I told you so,”’ for the youth's passion for firearms had been a constant source of alarm to his family, and had excited a great deal of comment. He went about his farm work with a shotgun or rifle on his shoulder and often the wedpon was cocked and ready for instant dis- charge. Raymond Harmon lived alone on his father’s farm, at Bible Grove, ten miles northeast of Louisville, about 100 miles east of St. Louis. His father lives at Lebanon. The family now consists of Dr. Harmon, his wife, Mrs. Molly Har- mon, four daughters, Steenie, Grace, Ma- rion and Lillian and John F. Harmon Jr. Miss Steenie Harmon, 24 years old, sister of Raymond Harmon, had been keeping house for him during the win- ter, but she went to Lebanon a week ago to attend the McKendree College commencement exercises. Did His Own Cooking. Sinc her departure, Raymond Harmon had done his own cooking and house- work and looked after the farm without help. He had 48 head of cattle which he was preparing to bring to the East St. Louls market next week, besides a dozen horses, many sheep and hogs and scores of chickens. Near the Harmon farm is a little church, and Raymond Harmon often led the meetings there when the pas- tor was absent. He was superintendent of the Sunday school and taught a Bible class every Friday night. He was deeply religious, and his church zeal and passion for firearms was often commented upon as incon- ous and gave rise to the opinion his neighbors that Raymond Harmon was “eccentric.” Me Had No Love Affair, So far as his family knows, Harmon Ine.d few girl friends, and was never at- He never

The new owners must be judged by re- sults.

== *™ a i CREVE COEUR’S POSSIBILITIES. A correspondent of the Post-Dispatch deplores the neglect of Creve Coeur Lake and emphasizes his remarks by telling how Minneapolis and St. Paul, with a total population of 500,000 support and enjoy half a dozen lakes. Private enterprise, street railway foresight and activity and public demand have made these lakes accessible and convenient outing places. * Creve Coeur, unfortunately, is practically lost to St. Louis. Beautiful as are its surrounding, it is a rowdy resort and particularly undesirable at the times it would be most attractive. For the situation the United Railways is chiefly respon- sible. Unseemly conduct is not only winked at on cars carrying returning roysterers, but there seems to be encouragement of the idea that Creve Coeur is for that form of relaxation. Undoubtedly the United Railways could re- claim the lake and make it a place where re- spectability could enjoy itself. It can eliminate rowdyism from its own resort and from its own cars. It owes that much to the public. = = ™ — oa The nation stands a far better chance of sur- viving the girl graduates’ essays than the girl graduates have of surviving the baccalaureate sermons on woman’s functions and her place in the scheme of things.

Noting in your columns that a bill was intro- duced this week into both houses of the Municipal Assembly which aims at fundamental changes in Health Department, and that the name of the Joint Medical Council was used pfesumably as sponser. I desire to say as a member of that body that the Joint Medical Council has not ap- oroved the bill nor could it so act officially until the proposed measure had been first submitted to the several societies and bodies ~ represented therein and formally adopted by a majority of their number. At best the bill at this time can be no more than an expression of individual views; and, however meritorious, cannot claim to be regarded as embodying the matured judg- ment of the medical profession of St. Louis. Moreover, the time of its introduction was most ll-chosen, and almost suggests an effort to anti- cipate or embarrass the work of the Board of Freeholders who are now engaged in the task of reshaping the charter and conforming that in- strument to present day needs and conditions. Though it cannot be too strongly emphasized that the Municipal Assembly in dealing with the pro- position thus brought before} it should make haste very slowly indeed, as it would be most un- fortunate if complications or cross purposes should arise to delay or frustrate the changes of methods locally needed to bring about the best results in sanitary and hospital wants. GEORGE HOMAN, M. D.

Music Not Appreciated. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. The musical concert at the Fairground of June 9 was beautifully rendered, but I don’t think one-third of the people heard much of it on account of the babbling, cat calls and other annoying noises. A gentleman neighbor of mine says he heard every- thing but music. I would be glad if anyone can tell me why people go to these park concerts? It can’t be to hear the music, but seems to me they go to annoy the music-loving individuals. ‘Annie Laurie” was beautifully played, as much as I could hear of it. I moved three different times and found it the same at each place. I was 80 disgusted at the noise—not only young girls and boys, but people that were old enough to go there and be quiet, and let those around them hear. A LEE AVENUE RESIDENT. Fence and Offense. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. Permit me to offer my humble tribute to the man who placed an iron fence around the swings in Carr Park. Such genius should not long remain unrecog- nized in a community which takes sufficient inter- est in its children to provide them with playgrounds. The fence is placed exactly where it is a constant menace to every child who uses the swings. one fall he would be almost sure to strike the fence. It is scarcely necessary to say that it would be far more dangerous to fall across a fence than directly upon the ground. A broken or at least badly in- ured spine would almost surely result from a fall directly on the back, and this is the way one would naturally fall. I trust the fence will be either re- moved entirely or piaced so far from the swings that it will cease to be a menace to both spectators and children. If you do not believe it is now danger- ous to both, take a careful look at the swings in op- eration. FATHER. Deaf-Mute Beggars. To the Editor of .he Post-Dispatch. Doubtless many of the people have been approached by persons purporting to be deaf and dumb, solicit- ing financial assistance to enable them to secure an education. They are all impostors, pure and simple, trying to work upon a sympathetic public. As a matter of fact, bona fide deaf mutes never do these stunts, for the simple reason they don’t have to. In St. Louis there is a public day school for the deaf on Henrietta street near Grand avenue, where they are given not only free education but those living farther than a reasonable walking distance of the school have their carfare paid for by the School Board. They have another choice in going to the State Institution for the Deaf at Fulton, Mo., where tuition and boarding is absolutely free and in tne case of pupils whose parents are too poor to pay the railroad fare, the Mayor attends to it out of the city’s contingent fund. This is true not only in Mis- souri but in every State and the large cities. Often little boys and girls are sent out on the same mis- sion of asking for funds, but the truth is they can hear and speak and are coached how to play the game by professional fakers. Loyal to Principal Stevenson. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. j We residents of the Penrose school district, having sent our children to the Penrose School under Prin- cipal James H. Stevenson and never having any cause to believe he has done anything but give the best service in his power, cannot see for what cause Mr. Blewett (or his associates on the School Board) wish him to reggn. Can any man be blamed for his infirmities in old age, after living a spotless life? The infirmity of Mr. James H. Stevenson is noth- ing more nor less than a hand slightly palsied, which does not interfere with his school work, which is second to none in our beloved city. Why not be loyal to one who has been loyal to us for 37 years of his St. Louis life, and keep him with us until he wishes to leave his post of duty of his own free will? RESIDENTS OF PENROSE SCHOOL DISTRICT. Saloon Man Wants Justice. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. As I am a reader of the Post-Dispatch and a taxpayer of St. Louis, I would like to know why sa- loon men have to pay more license when. blind tigers are allowed ali over this city? The so-called clubs, for instance, and also various rooming houses. What kind of men have we in office? Justice is what we want at all times. Where does a saloon man get any justice? I would like to hear from someqne who knows. TAXPAYER. Central Y. M. M. C. A. Gym. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. Am I correct in thinking that the Central Y¥. M. C. A. gymnasium is not a safe place for a crowd? If I am mistaken, let someone set me right. But the place seems to me utterly unfit for the purpose of a public hall. At the recent circus given by the Young Women’s Christian Association there were present, according to the newspapers, about eight hundred persons. The gallery was so overloaded that fear of its collapse was openly expressed by many in the audience. The gynasium has no independent en- trance or exit. The stairs jead from the main en- trance, and are totally inadequate. No pretense, so far | as I am aware, is made that any part of the ‘is fireproof. fe Sy Seek 90 Sete out when the gymnasium the | terrible loss of iife. What have

BE IT RESOLVED. From the Louisville Courier-Journal. “And shall Kentucky,” exclaims an eloquent Southern orator, “so richly dowered of nature, so beautiful for situation, the joy of the whole earth, her head pillowed upon the blue east- ern hills, her feet laved by the Mis- Sissippi flood; Kentucky the sacred precinct of loveliness, the nursing place of heroes, the bridal chamber of the earth and sky; shali Kentucky fall| further and further out of step in the choral dance of her sisters, a dance more splendid than ever woven by Hellenic Houris, than ever inspired the pencil of Italian art? It cannot, it must. not, it shall not be.” Aye, verily! Even if we have to put in less time on our Tynchings and night riding in

WHAT’S YOUR STATE OF MIND? From the Pittsburg Dispatch. Dr. Eliot says that happiness is a state of mind independent of wealth, occupation or mental gifts, to which the Philadelphia Press interposes that it “depends on the definition of “wealth.” But as the man who be- lieves he has enough wealth has enough, it is plain that whatever hap- piness there is in wealth is in the state of mind concerning it, whether the man thinks he has enough, Ike Carnegie at $300,000,000, or like a vast number of obscure men with, say, $3000 of a nest-egg.

UNRECOVERABLE SHEEP. From the New York World. Senator McCumber, a member of the Finance Committee, says that the sheep-raising industry has not complete- ly recovered from the stagnation fol- lowing the passage of the Wilson bill. Of course not. The Wilson bill went out of operation in 1897, and since then any sheep that survived it have died of a miserable old age.

THE KANSAS ALMANAC, From the Wall Street Journal. An up-to-date almanac should contain the following: “June 10-15. About this time look for the first newspaper dis- patches of the season reporting that Kansas farmers are pulling tramps from passing trains in order to pay them $% a day to work jin the wheat fields.”

SEND THE RATS YELLOW CORDS. From the Kansas City Star. When a Chinese mandarin receives the Yellow Cord it means for him to’ commit suicide within 60 days. And the hint is always acted upon. The mandarin knows if he does not do so his life will be quite as insecure as that of a St. Louls ward politician.

MORE INTERESTING. From the Kansas City Journal. “At the last meeting of our club we were scheduled to discuss Henry VIII and his numerous divorces.”’ “And didn't you?’ ‘No; one of the members knew of an impending divorce right in our owu set.””

MODERN DISADVANTAGE. From the Washington Star. “Some of the greatest men in our his- tory studied by the light of pine knots.”’ ‘*Yes,"’ answered the young man, “they coud afford pine knots. They lived be- fore there was any lumber trust.”

A SATISFIED EDITOR. From the Atchison Globe. We are giad we do not run a furniture store. If we should put a nice chair out in front, to let people see a sample of our new goods, it would make us mighty | mad for a loafer to occupy it and spit tobacco juice all around.

This will make the saloon many friends. The saloon keeper probably doesn’t feel friendly, but really he should rejoice. A few weeks ago it seemed that we could do without the saloon, but it doesn’t seem so now. It serves. How rich are the saloons? Taxes area problem. Tariff is a Gordian knot. New ways must be devised for raising money. If we can get it from the saloons, that is beautifully simple. There are 2000 saloons in St. Louis. Couldn't they make up the Free Bridge deficit? There are maybe a million saloons in the Mississippi Valley, or would be if we could find some good use for them. Couldn't they finance the deep-water project? That ought to induce the most captious prohibitionist to leave them alone. Gov. Hadley seems to have struck a rich lead. There is already $400,500 In his philosophy. Maybe there is more, Note on the Sucker Birth Rate, McCracten County farmers have been swinlled by an agent who sold them a bug eradicator, telling them a Government agent was following bim and would compel them to buy the powder.

To one who admits knowing noth- ing about it, Mayor Kreismann does not appear to have been in an altogether | © vacant state of mind when he gave the Terminal company permission tenta- tively to lay tracks upon certain un- developed streets. This. is experiment in a_ direction whence no man has returned except with a disordered mind. We have tried to get at the truth of the matter of those tracks and streets. Was the Ter- minal company doing us? or were we doing the Terminal company? The rid- dle of the Sphinx, how old is An, the bridge arbitrary puzzle and the tariff conundrum are all simpler than wheth- er we ought to let the Terminal com- pany lay tracks upon some of our un- used streets. Mr. Kreismann evidently believes that the way to find out what we should de is to suffer the tracks to be laid there, and then see how we like them. we do like them, they may make them- selves at home; if we don’t like them, git. This beats a too hasty grant or refusal of a franchise. It is, indeed, the new spirit of inquiry. As intimated at the outset, we probably do not know what we are talking about, but it is the same thing as trial marriage hap- pily free from the moral defects of that really promising idea. ASSESSMENTS. Let us all rejoice that lump assess- ment returns are to end. We would much rather specify. The old Way was em- barrassing. When we knew that persons with ten or a hundred times as much as we have were lumping their personal property at about what ours had cost us, it seemed presumptuous to top them. Modesty is the most seeming corollary of poverty. If the man sized us up and suggested that we had about $00 worth of property, we let it go at that. The trouble was that while he was trying to find out what we had, we were trying to find out what was usual. We did not want to make pretensions to having more than persons who could buy us out and never miss the money. Con- science never hurts half as much as feeling that we do not know our place, Give us the new blanks, It would be interesting to see the people who insist that lion hunting is like shooting cows go out after lions, They are a kind of liar so mutually hated by man and beast that we could absolutely depend upon the lions’ co- operation in showing them up. Let us all hope that the June bride will be happier in the choice of a hus- band than we usually are in the choice of a president, senator, congressman or mayor.

The German ships had been swept from the face of the waters. The “Ingram current’ cailed Wilhelm Second Fleet sea the to bis accounting. Tt made of-the stupendous conflict be- ' tween the ships of Milne and of Henry of Pyissia a conflict in which the light- ningof Heaven struck the decisive blow for England. It white ard blinding bolts devastated the decks of the ships of Henry's fleet. it was not humanly possible for the Germans to fight effectively against these withering blasts of electric flame. Through the pall of gun-smoke that settled down upon the scene of the death-grapple of English and German ships the incessant lightning of the “Ingram current’ played until the a4 spectacle was illuminated as sh from Hell's own battlements. Asa every stroke of England's new enghe of war counted for English vic- to, overwhelming, complete, decisive fg all time. HiW’ sure defeat of the Germans } . received its ominous presage with the sinking of Henry’s flagship, the mighty ‘‘Ersatz-Baden.” It had fought a good fight, this proud ship upon whose bridge stood a Prince of the Blood Royal of Ger- many, the gallant Henry of Prussia, whose inrperial brother had sent him forth to strike England down wita the mafied fist of German hate.

rescued | from the waves by an English boat’s crew, fieury was received abvard the ‘King Edweré VIL” by Admiral Milne with the ceremony befitting nis royal blood. T sunset A torious English fleet cast an- chor in an English harbor. The air rang with the English tumult of triumph as the ships saliléd in and rounded to their appointed stations, England still was mistress of sea, And the First Army Corps of the Ger- man invasion of England; the Prus- sian corps under Von Kliuck, was caught in the trap sprung by the Eng- iish naval victory. The waters’ surrounding again were competently English fleets, No German sea forco could fight its way through this line of ocean de- fense. There could be no German reinfore- ing of the Prussian corps. Victorious though this corps had been in its first engegement on Eng- lish soil, it was now at England’s mer- cy. Stubboraly, however, with a su- perb willingness to dare and meet its fate, it prepared to fight to the last— although now this meant utter destruc- tion under the land fire of the “Ingram current,’’ the new war engine that had come into being since that night of the Prussians’ triumphant English soil. But, happily, this was not demanded. The onlooking nations of the civil- ized warld, horror-stricken, first by the soul-shaking demonstration of the de- Structive possibilities of the Zeppelin aerial battleships, and then to an even greater degree by that of the awful powers of the “Ingram curreat,’’ felt themseives impelled to demand a sus- pension of host:lities between Germany and England. This intervention was United States. Behind the American Government in this action stood every great power of earth. The result of intervention was an in- ternational Congress of Peace. At this Congress was signed a protocol giving to England. the decision of con- clusive victory, yet so justly fixing the zerman penalty of defeat that the war was brought to a lasting termination. NE week thereafter, Clement In- ¢ gram, his loyal soul stirred to its depths, heard England's voice up- lifted in national thanksgiving. The great and sonorous chant of the “Te Deum Laudamus”’ rose and ewelled and echoed beneath the vaulted dome of Westminster Abbey, where hang the battle-flags of Britain, and where sleep her glorious dead. The'splendid scene, majestic in its his. toric significance, found its focal point at that spot where stood His Majesty, Edward VII, by the grace of God, King of Great Britain and Ireland, Defender of the Faith, Emperor of India, the Queen-Empress by his side. Around them were grouped ‘their sons and daughters, the royal children of England. The great nobles of England encircled their King. The chiefs of the army and navy at- tended the monarch’to whom their mili- tant service was given. All officers of state were numbered in the august gathering. Upon this picture of a mighty people’s thanksgiving Clement Ingram’s cyes were bent with proud intensity. But not at every moment of the im- pressive ~eremony. Far across the dim space of the solemn Valhalla-Abbey in which he stood, for just one instant Clement Ingram saw a girl's face turned toward him. It was the sweet English face of Editha Brownlea—and in her pure eyes of English blue there was a glad beck- oning that called Clement Ingram to; love and happiness.

CMEN'’S FASHIONS From Fairchild’s Magazine. UST at the present writing the shop windows are filled with every con- ceivable kind of light colored socks— the palest shades of nile green, dreadful rose pinks, violet, heliotropes, browns and tans of all descriptions, pale coffee colors, straw and yellow tones and the like. Most of these strange offerings are entirely “impossible” and, if worn at all, can only be imagined with white flannels and white shoes. It is quite likely, however, that unoffendinyg citi- cens in Broadway will be treated to a vision of these extraordinary stockings worn with black shoes ag our young men seem to affect some very strange combinations of colors. Already one may see many chaps wearing gunmetal pumps in the street with the most bril- liant shades of socks, usually purple, and carrying silk handkerchiefs to match. EVER before have flannel shirts been so popular and they are be- ing shown not only in plain colors but in striped effects as well. Curious- ly enough, the majority of them seem to be made with a breast pocket. which always is an irritation, as most men wear these shirts now in plate of -na- dras ones on outing occasions and often with a waistcoat, and there seems to be no special reason for the pocket. The flannel shirt of the moment has the so- called French or double cuff. The pale grays, greens and tans are particuiarly handsome. XFORD ties are made of various shades of ooze, tan, smoke, taupe and all the so-called popular colors of the moment. The green suede shoes probably still exist, but they remain in the background. They are not being exhibited any longer. Brown pumps are also a feature of the early summer ex- hibits of shoes. HE popularity of the bow tile con- tinues unabated. They. are being shown in almost all widths, but those with the wide square ends are most fre- quently seen. They are generally of plain silks, baratheas and the like, al- though just now there is a particular “run”? on such ties made of shot silk and softer ombre effects.

F:, fies ate we ame : — i «. .How such a club could have lost from te 3 day to day is hard to understand. It > ~— has hitters, baserunners, fielders and ; *) pitchers of the highest class. It’s a 7 ase - i well-balanced club that works harmo- 3 a niously, and, best of all, it has a smart * leader in Mr. William Murray. " The Cardinals had a chance to lead the second division of the National League by beating this team, Friday, » and went into the frolic filled with >. @ash and determination, but it was all - wasted, for Pitcher Earl Moore put a stop to their ambitions in short order, while his mates caused trouble for Johnny Lush right in the first inning. Moore’s pitching was superb. The Cardinals made three hits off him all » told, and wee Bobby Byrmme made two of them. He simply had too much speed for the local hitters. They were fouling the ball or popping it in the air. Few were hit on the ground and those that were generally rolled feebly “ sd or else were devoured by the -greedy i Philadelphia infielders. 7 $The Cardinals played a most com- - mendable game of ball and tried as ~~ hard as anyone could ask. They were simply incompetent to hit such pitching as Mr. Moore was handing out, and died gamely. On the other hand, the Phillies piayed a beautiful offensive game. It’s 4 club that works like a machine. Perhaps there is too much of the machine and not enough of the original in this club, and that’s the reason it hasn’t been to the front. It performs all mechanical parts of baseball beautifully. It’s faultily fault- less. It's a pleasure to watch it work, like looking at a machine in perfect working order. But when it comes to doing unusual things to win a game the Phillies are lost. They must win them by their strength alone. Manager Murray has an array of physical talent performing on the field. The psychic power of his club is on the bench in his own mind. He turns his nine athletes loose on the fleld and then sits on the bench himself and tries to think for them. Physically, the Phillies are as strong as the Cubs, or Pirates, or Giants. But they don’t do original things, like Frank Chance’s men, or like Hans Wagner of the Pirates and Larry Doyle of the Giants. There is hope that the physical prow- ess of the Phillies will yet draw them into a hand-to-hand battle for the Na- tional League pennant this year. But it’s hardly probable, now that they have

made such a discouraging start.

First Base- man Bransfield was iost on the play, and after getting the ball, tagged the air, never realizing Byrne had gone to second. The Phillies have a lively, young out- fielder in. Deininger. He took the place of Osborn, who has been ill all sprinz. In Friday’s game, he made three great catches in center fleld, and besides is credited with one single and one sacri- fice. Manager Bresnahan was back on duty, but did not play in the game. Phelps has been going nicely with Lush. and was kept behind the bat, while Roger worked in the coaching box. Magee is the same hitter and run- getter of old. He scored two of the four runs, made a triple and a single as his share of the offensive play. His triple came in the first inning and drove in one run. It was a drive to left cen- ter. to pitch for the Cardinals Saturday. while Moren is the man named for the Phillies.

The 32 players making the best scores in the qualifying round will be paired first pair will open Monday afternoon. Practical- ly every golfer of note in the city is entered for the tournament, which is expected to prove one of the best ever held to decide the city championship. While the first pair left the original tee at 9 a. m., it is hardly probable that any of the golfers will complete their round of the course until after 12 o'clock, noon. The last pair are not scheduled to start out until after 2 o'clock. All of the players will be urged to set in as soon as possible, however, so that the pairings for the match play can be announced Saturday night. | The players who are beaten in the first round of match play will compete in what will be known as a consolation tournament, while there will also be special tournamehts for the players who fail to qualify, which will be known as Class A, B, C and possibly D com- petitions, Prizes will be given for all of the com- petitions.

It was the largest number of athletes that ever competed in a local meet. There Was an aitendance that nearly filled the hig stand on the west side of the field. The majority of the teams represented the Middle Western states, although a dele- gation from Seattle upheld the athletic reputation of the Pacific Coast, and Mercersburg Academy took care of the Eastern end. The meet was one of the hardest ever fought on a Western field, as 13 championship teams—winners of other interscholastic meets this spring— were in the running for the largest num- ber of points. University High of Chicago, winner of the Illinois, Cook County and Beloit in- terscholastic meet, was a_ top-heavy favorite as the teams came upon the field for the first events. Local enthu- siasts were confident of the victory of the University High team. Among the schools mentioned as possible contenders were Muskegon, Mich.; Oak Park, IIL; IKxansas City, Mo., and the Central High School of Minneapolis. The mile run promised to be the most exciting event of the meet and it was the opinion of many that the record of 4m. would be broken. Cowley is expected to have, the struggle of his life to retain his honors won here last year. Among the stars entered in the mile were Marks of Beloit, with a mark of 4m. 32s; Dono- van of Morgan Park, who is said to have done 4m. 31s; Redfern of Des Moines, who set a mark of 4m. 32s. in the Iowa interscholastic this year, and Risdon of Seattle, who appears to be fastest of all, as he has been credited with 4m. 2s. JEFFRIES CAN'T REFEREE BATTLE BOSTON, June 12.—Jack Johnson, when seen in regard to his fight with Kaufmann, which was announced would take place in San Francisco, said: ‘T am willing to go 45 rounds, or fight to a finish with Kaufmann, in Nevada, before Oct. 12, but I will not fight in California before then. I have told Coffroth my reason for not fighting a 45-round battle with Kaufmann in San Francisco.”’ When asked about the report that Jeffries may referee his fight with Ketchel, Johnson said: “Mr. Jeffries will never referee my fight with Ketchel or anyone else.” EXTRA HOLES REQUIRED IN PITTSBURG GOLF PLAY PITTSBURG, Pa., June 12.—In the Allegheny Country Club’s annual invi- tation golf tournament eight of the in- Gividual matches required the play of extra holes before they were settled.

There is no number on the Browns’ hard luck board that has not been played several] times. Is there anyone who can whisper the name of the next manager of the Browns? A few hits behind Rube Waddell and the game was cinched. Not an error on either side. Some day the Browns expect to win a game, even with Stone and Hoffman out. Stanley Ketchel surely made _ one splendid showing against Jack O’Brien in their recent fight, but that doesn't necessarily spell defeat for the heavy- weight champion, Mistah Jack Johnson. Johnson, when he meets Ketchel, will have an advantage of something like 40 or 50 pounds in weight.;-In itself this is almost enough to spell victory. There is still a chance that the Browns will do something sensational! on the Eastern trip, but few feel In- clined to place any wagers on it. While they are trying to figure out the finish of Harry Pulliam it is a safe bet that he will be in: charge of the National League gace within three weeks. Certainly there is one strong knock going the rounds against the umpires of both leagues. It is hard to believe that there was even an umpire who de- liberately rendered a decision against the truth. Here and there one finds a man who makes a mistake and gets into trouble; but not even the spectators for a moment believe that an official wil- fully misrepresents the facts. And yet every umpire in either League has to daily submit to all sorts of personal villifiication. Certainly conversation, of the baseball players’ sort, could be dis- pensed with now and then. If Waddell can’t win how are the Browns going to get away with it? After Friday’s game, the Cleveland team is not altogether satisfied that it did the right thing in getting rid of Earl Moore. Evidently the Doves won 4 bird of a game Iriday. Mr. Joe Forshaw of St. Louls, mem- ber of the Olympic team of 1908, will have to surrender his distance running laurels. Irwin Biel, formerly of the Cen- tral Y. M. C. A., is now the man who seems to have won the right to step into the ftrst place of distance run- ning athletes of this city. Biel has for several months won race after race, in which he has entered. He is an ex- tremely young man, and is still not of age, although he has been annexing all the trophies for events under 15 miles. Friday Biel won the 10-mile race held under the auspices of the Egyptian Hustlers. He won it all the way, and showed that he has the class of the entire field, despite the fact that stars of international] reputation were in the meet. p Stikney may have the deciding not to compete in the match play rounds of the city golf championship, but he will never convince followers of the game that he is helping championship race by fre- maining out of it. Mr. Stuart right idea in Mr. Ketchel has one awful hard punch which he lands on his friends occa- sionally; but it will be much more dif- ferent to make it sting a man of Jack Johnson's height and general topogra- phy than it was to land on Mr. O’Brien. Philadelphia Jack is a clever fight- er, but he. was not overlooking many financia] arrangements when he decided that three rounds was about his Hmit. Surely Chance and company must have been surprised when that tail-end aggregation slipped one over on him. But then a club is occasionally liable to win a game. Jimmy Collins is being considered as a possibility in eonnection with the management of the toston National League club. It’s merely a chance, as Frank Bowerman, although not making good, has a heavy drag with George Dovey.

CAHILL PLANS TQ BRING Tht. re PLGA HEE NEW YORK, June 12.—Arrangements have been completed for an association between’

9 ~“*) football maich here on Oct. a team representing England and those composed of the best talent in this country. Negotiations were completed Friday between Harry Manly, presi- dent of the New York Football Associ- ation, and Manager Thomas Cahill of St. Louis, the clubs of which they have undertaken to bring out. the amateur aggregation known as the Pilgrims from England, under the captaincy of Fred Milnes of Sheffield. The Pilgrims, who will sail for this country on Sept. 25, will be composed of representatives of Manchester, Birm- ingham, Sheffield, Woolwich Arsenal, Shepherds, Bush and Fulham. After playing the first game in New York against a picked eleven of the State Association, the Pilgrims will play picked teams in Baltimore, St. Louis, Chicago, Toronto, Philadelphia, Fall River and Boston. MARSHALL FORCES CUBAN TO ANOTHER CHESS DRAW NEW YORK, June 12.—Frank J. Mar- shall of New York and Jose R.

Marshall forced a draw after 35 moves. The score to date is 7 to 1, in favor of Capablanca, with 13 games drawn. PETERSON PLANS BILLIARD » PARTY FOR. HIS NEW ROOM Charles C.

LANGFORD AND SIAN KETCHEL | BADLY WANTED Middleweight Champion Can Get $10,000 for His End by Meeting Colored Scrapper. BY JOHN POLLOCK. NEW YORK, June 12.—Another fight club promoter in California is trying to clinch a match between Stanley Ketchel and Sam Langford, the colored fighter now in England. ‘“‘Sid’’ Hester, matchmaker of the Mission A. C. vf San Francisco, Friday night announced that he will give Ketche! $10,000 for his end to meet Langford in a 20-round battle at Kis club, some time in August. Hester ‘detided to give Ketchel this sum after he had received a cablegraim from Joe Woodman, manager of Lang- ford, asking to arrange a match for Langford with Ketchel at all hazards. It is not likely that WUulus Britt, mana- ger of Ketchel, will accept the offer until after Ketchel’s fight with Jack Johnson at Colma, Cal., in September. Jimmy Coffroth has decided to give “Young Corbett” a chance to fight at his club at Colma, Cal., and Friday he telegraphed to him offering a match with Johnny Frayne, the California lightweight, for 2% rounds, the early part of July. As Corbett is anxious to go to the Coast and fight, the chances are that he will accept Coffroth’s of- fer. Corbett and Frayne should draw a big house, as both men are well liked on the coast. Frayne-Pirne Bout Off. The 20-round bout between “Young Erne,”” the Quaker City lightweight, and Johnny Frayne, which was slated to be fought at the North End A. C. of San Francisco, this month, has fallen through. The club officials were only willing to give Frayne a guarantee of $600 for his end, but as Heinie Rafael, manager of Frayne, also wanted a chance at the percentage, the club of- ficilals immediately called off the con- test. ® ul 4) Leach Cross, who fights “Fightinz Dick”’ Hyland at Colma, Cal., two weeks trom Saturday, refuses to accept Billy Roche as referee of the bout, and is holding off for Eddie Hanlon, the Cali- fornia fighter, who retired from the ring several months ago. Leach will! begin training today for the fight at Billy Shannon’s roadhouse at San Raf- ael. He weighs 140 pounds at present. Jim Kendrick, the English bantam- weight champ'on, will make his debut in a contest fn Philadelphia Saturday. He will meet Phil McGovern, the South Brooklyn bantamweight, for six rounds before the National A. C. of that city. Kendrick is one of those clever boxers, shifty and a fairly good puncher with either hand. Johnny Coulen will meet the winner “or the bantamweight cham- pionship of the world. Johnny Murphy, the California Nght- weight, who came all the way to this city for the purpose of trying to get ou some bouts with the best men in his class in this vicinity, will not be able to box for a few weeks yet owing to an attack of pneumonia which he contract- cd two weeks ago. Murphy was walk- ing around the streets with the danger- ous sickness and didn’t know he was so tad. Australian Gets Match. Little Tibbey Watson, the Australian tantamweight, who was beaten in a 10-round bout at Dayton, O., a few weeks ago, has arrived in town. He has been matched -to meet Frankie Burns, the Jersey City boxer, for six rounds in the semi-final at the next stag of the Brown Gymnasium A. A. on Tues- day night.

a 4 mirable Although Browns Play Ad- Be = : Phi

The game went 11 innings, and while the Browns put up a brildant game in the fleld the game was a pitchers’ bat- tle between Waddell and Plank, and for the second time this season the *“‘*kube”’ lost the duel. The eleventh inning was where the poor baseball playing on the part of McAleer’s men came in. Collins sent an easy roller to Tom Jones. Waddell failed to cover first base and Collins was safe. Murphy was there with the necessary sacrifice, after which Mr. Davis came to bat. He teased the “Rube,” was fouling off balls, and finally, with two strikes on him, drove out a single that sent Collins home with what proved the winning run. There- fore it can be seen that Waddell can hardly blame anyone but himself for his defeat. It did seem as though the Browns should have won, espectally when it is considered that they got 10 hits. Only one run resulted. Arter the eighth in- ning little Jimmy Dygert replaced Plank, single.

offerings were based larg*iy on the continued rains throughout much of the winter wheat territory, which threaten danger of floods. Much of the best eariy wheat, on which considerable dependence 13 put. is in the bottom lands and there is a possibility of at least temporary trouble !f the excassive moisture continues. This factor caused nerv- ousness among the shorts and, in con/unc- tion with the relatively steady cables, caused an early upward movement cf values, but the danger is only a possible one and most operators still regard prospecte for an early and a large harvest bright. It ig probable that with a clearing of the weather the new wheat will be coming in in gl voluine before very long. The Liverpool market was depressed early in the day, most of the foreign pews being of a beerish «tinge. It is predicted that world’s shipments will show a large increase, and that statistical pews will be generally bearish. Ad- vices from Russia confirm recent reports of rains and improved crop conditions there, and reports from Europe and Argentine were favor- able. Fuzlish spot markets were firm, ‘44 higher, however, with cargoes firmly held. and futures at Tiverpool closed 4d higher, a rela- tively steady range. Receipts. while still small. continue to show an increasing value, and the conges- tion in the cash market is fast disappearing. A healthy movement. even in the prospective. is already producing more normal conditions in cash wheat, prices again showing an easy tone. There were few new features and trad- ers were unwilling to commit themselves to any extent. Prices opened firm and after a very sluggish movement. showed. toward noon, bare y steady levels pn September and December. with July still considerably high- er. July wheat- opened \%c higher at $1.13, advanced to $1.18%. sagged to $1.134%@ 1.18% and rallied to $1.13%. September wheat opened Kc higher at $1.08%, was of- fered down to $1.08% and rallied to $1.08 %&. December wheat opened %c higher at $1.08%. paaped to $1.08% and rallied to $1.084%@

$7.00@7.75, but real good heavy hogs would have brought more, lights went at soon: -*8. best pigs 0 pounds and less, 69.86, and fair $4.75@5.75. EEP—With but few on sale the mar- ket was active at steady prices and the of- ferings were well cleaned up. Best lambs sold at $8.75 es, were moderate today and the light was confined mostly to transactions among the speculators. ith the opening of the range horse sale next week more is to hoped for in the trade. About 100 head of mules arrived, the majority of the fresh ar- rivals gol direct to dealers. The market wes generally inactive and closed on a quiet asis. [ane 3 SPECULATORS BORROW was unusually large and at advanced :{prices. Title Guaranty was also fair- ‘lly active and considerably higher than Friday. There was a marked absence of transactions in bonds, not a sale be- ing registered in these securities. The general tone of the market was decid- edly strong. ot ag, SET TE Am.

4 pgp TAY THE THEATER OR OPERA SHEHAS US AT

She Is Found in Many Guises and Is Always Annoying--Hard to Recognize and Equally Hard to Dodge When Known.

yy MARGUERITE MARTYN. NOTHER woman we become all A too familiar with as we worry along through this vale of tears is she who is so serene in the conviction that SHE KNOWS IT ALL. Far be it from me to con- test her position. Right willingly would we all leave her alone in her glory, I think, but she is likewise inspired with the idea that she is called upon to enlighten us all in our density, try to keep out of her Wway as we may. Rude men have a way of putting her to flight when she goes forth to inform and reform the whole world. You see they resent the in- fringment upon their exclusive right to know it all. I have seen her scam- per back to the safe refuge of her petticoats many times after such a sally. She may sit in judgment upon our morals, habits, manner of talk- ing, of walking, of eating, dressing, reading, writing, drawing, the small- est faults and the pet vices of her frail sisters for we are never quite blissfully ignorant after we met this wise lady. You are never forearmed by being forewarned of the approach of this know-it-all person. If you. see an otherwise pleasant and attractive looking woman being shunned by everybody else, this may be taken as an indication of her, but the Know-It-All comes in many varie- ties and goes about in many dis- guises, waiting to spring from the most unexpected places. After Event Has Happened She Declares “I Told You So.” IR favorite trick is to wait uutil H after an event has happened, until after you have made your mistake, then to jump up sud- denly with her “I told you so, I knew it all the time,’”” which is absolutely unassailable, and there you are— caught in a trap. Your most innocently-intended state- ment, your slightest inaccuracy is likely to precipitate a volume of horded up wisdom upon your head. You may happen to remark in the course of a thrilling story that you came downtown on the Compton ave- nue car this morning and call forth a flood of data to prove that the Know It All was an eye-witness to the fact that you got off the Olive car at Broadway. You mention your slightest ailment in her presence and a correct diag- nosis and an elaborate discourse upon symptoms ts forthcoming along with a remedy which is certain cure and which you might as well submit to, for the dread “I told you so’’ awaits you whether you get better or worse. And a bare assertion of fact, how- ever trivial, acts like a red rag to an enraged bull upon the Know It All You declare that the climate of St. Louis excels that of any other city in the country and she pounces upon your opinion and tears it to shreds. You remark that the fashions of to- day are more sensible than those of yesterday and she is here with every argument to prove that again you are wrong. She Is Particularly Annoying at the Theater. AYBE you are skillful enough Mi to go through life avoiding ; the. “‘“Know It All’’ until some time when you go to the theater with your heart set upon seeing a certain play or hearing the opera and one of them springs up in your vicinity. Then she has you at her mercy. She exults in your helplessness, hums the songs with the orchestra and tells everyone within earshot how she knows more about the piece than the actors on the stage, for she heard it all weeks before in New York. Then there is the Know It All who would audit our grammar. There are large numbers of these descend- ing upon us these fair June days in the guise of sweet girl graduates. They are perfectly innocent looking in white frocks an& gashes, ‘but be warned of the hang-dog, apologetic look and absolute silence of her fam- ily and approach not too near. Which serves to remind us that however we may have been persecuted for the time belng by the Know It All whom we can avoid in the future, we should congratulate ourselves that we have not happened to have been born into a family where there is one, or to live next door to one, or to work in the same office with one or to be married to one. Many an unsuspecting man has taken his bride to his new home only to discover her to be a Know It All who forever afterwards sits in judgment upon his every move- ment, thought and all. A liberal education awaits us_at the hands of the Know It All, if she would kindly prevent our follies in- stead of correcting them. But her wisdom heaped upon our own self- reproach—that is the uncomfortable, intolerable part of the Know It ‘All.

ETEN SHE APPEARS IN THE ~ GUISE OF A SWLET GIRL GRADUATE SOCIETY WOMEN IE THOUSANDS TO BLACKMAILERS Plot Revealed in Attempted Murder of Dr. Jennie Beardsley in Chicago. ‘

Special to the Post-Dispatch. CHICAGO, June 12.—A blackmail plot of gigantic proportions, the victims of which have been some of the most prominent women in Englewood society circles, has been averted by the police. They assert the money extorted by threats will amount to thousands of dollars, Th an attempt to capture the leader of the blackmailers a score of detectives Surrounded the home of a prominent resident of Englewood. The occupant of the house had been receiving threat- ening letters demanding $1000. The threatened woman sent a decoy letter which failed, “I know the man,” said Lieut. Cough- lin. “Mv only fear is that Dr. Jennie Beardsley, the only one who has seen him in connection with this plot, can- not positively identify him, or I would now have him in custody. That is the reason I have set this trap for him.” : Attempted to Kill Woman. The operations of the blackmailers cyl- minated in an attemat to murder Dr. Beardsley late Thursday night while she was under the guard of detectives in her home, 6506 Peoria street. Dr. Beardsley had received two letters before the attack upon her was made. The first demanded that she pay the plotters $500, and the second threatened her with death because she had in- formed the police instead of complying with the demand for money. Detectives were sent to guard her, but she was called to the door and an attempt was made to stab her. She told the detectives that when she opened the kitchen door an arm was thrust in from the darkness outside and a powerful hand grasped her throat. There was a glittering flash and she saw a knife blade descend toward her breast, Thrust Back Into Room. The steel swept past her face toward her throat. She saw that the man who held her and was trying to stab her was powerfully built and large of stat- ure, but she could not see his features. She heard him utter an oath and thrust her backward into the room as if sat- is fled that the knife blow had reached its mark, Mrs. Beardsley’s waist wasislashed in a diagonal! line reaching sowslennd from a diamond sunburst, which she wore at the left side of her throat. The waist, a lace affair of delicate texture, had been cleft as clean as if the slash had been done with a razor. Mrs. Breadsiey explained that the knife had struck her brooch and glanced through her waist until it struck a cor-
