New Haven Society Stirred and Tries to Suppress \ News of Raid. Bpecial to the Post-Dispatch. NEW HAVEN, Conn., June 21.—Evi- dence came to light today upon wnich the divorce case of Mr. and Mrs. Joseph Montells may be reopened in a sensa- tional manner. Mrs. Montells is the divorced wife ot Harlowe B. Spencer, a prominent mem- ber of the St. Louis Merchants’ Ex- change, and son of the late Corwin H. Spencer, millionaire grain speculator and first vice-president of the St. Louis World's Fair. She Miss Ellen Christy, daughter of Calvin M. Christy, member of one old French fam- ilies of St. Mrs. Montells. who has become widely known as “‘the most beautiful woman in New Haven” since she took up her resi- dence here a year ago, obtained a de- cree in Bridgeport last Friday, but that was before her husband learned that only a few days before the police had raided her house, 73 Avon street, charg- ing her and her sister, Miss Mary Belle Christy, with dnlawful behavior. Two Yale students who gave ‘the names of John Fields .nd James Barnes, were alsb taker én the raid and the same charge war made against them, but later. the namés of Frank J. Ijams of New York and Jack Rainer, son of a wealthy automobile manufacturer of Washington, D. C., were substituted on the police docket by order of the judge who heard the case. — Mr. Montellis is’'a rich steamboat: own- er and yachtsman of Greenwich. He did not contest his wife's suit and a de- crees by default was rendered against him, by which he was ordered to pay her $500 alimony. Raid Stirs Society. Nothing has occurred in New Haven in years that has stirred society more deeply than the raid on Mrs. Montell’s luxuriously appointed house, but sé atrong was the Influence brought to bear on the police and local newspapers that the facts were suppressed. Lee McClung, treasurer of Yale lUni- versity, is a cousin of Mrs. Montells, and he and other influential friends for days succeeded in keeping the news of the ar- rests from the general public, but they could not prevent the gossip of the af- fair from spreading through the uni- versity and among those in high col- lege society. Mrs. Montells has been conspicuous since she and her sister took an apart- ment at the New Haven House last August. She ‘s a handsome blonde, while Miss Christy is a pronounced bru- nette. Both dressed in the height of fashion. After a short time Mrs. Mon- tells rented the house in Aven Street, at the corner of Orange street, one of the most exclusive sections of the Elm City. Students Gathered There. The house soon became the gathering place of a gay crowd, mostly of wealthy Students, though the curate of a promi- nent church and a man who has been mentioned as a candidate for Governor of Connecticut were frequent callers. Neighbors who objected to the tooting of horns as automobiles stepped at Mrs. Montells’ house at what were regarded as unseemly hours are responsible for the complaints which led to the police raid. Detectives, under charge of Sergt. Klaiber, watched the house, and at midnight made the raid. Taken to the Grand Avenue Police Station, the women gave their names as Helen and Maria Morris. The men and Miss Christy were held in $75 bonds, and Mrs. Montelis in $150. Ball was at once provided. When their cases were called the next morning, they failed to appear, but a continuance of the case was granted for two days on the appealing of James H,. Webb, who was Mrs. Montells’ at- torney in the divorce proceedings. Again they failed to appear and the bonds were declared forfeited, the Judge or- dering then that the right names of the accused by placed en the docket.

ONES Th Al HOWE 'S ARREST IN GIFT AUTO Republican Boss Rersecuted by Policeman, Circuit Attorney Says.

JUDGE STAYS HIS FINE Brother-in-Law Tries to Put Accuser in Ananias Class.

The Jones roar has been merged with the Howe weep. Circuit Attorney Jones, boiling over with indignation, was in the Clark Ave- nue Police Court with his brother-in- law, Jeptha D. Howe Monday, when Howe was fined $10 for violating the speed ordinance. With them was Jones’ stenographer, Herbert Stanton, who took a complete stenographic report of the evidence. After the fine was announced, Jones said: “The arrest of Howe was a d—d out- rage. I personally detailed my stenogra- pher to Judge Taylor’s court to take down the evidence. If the policeman uttered one word of truth, ines the Lord help us. “It is time to call a halt on these per- secutions. The first. time Jep was ar- rested and fined, I said ‘Bully, it serves him right.” But this time I was in the automobile with Mrs. Howe and Jo- seph B. Thomas, and, Knowing that this policeman was hovering around, several of us watched the speedometer, and know that Jep kept well within the speed limit. “The policeman made the arrest to boost himself, simply because it was Jep Howe. This persecution ought to stop.”’ Th. automobile in which the de facto Republican boss was accused of speed- ing is the one which was given him when he resigned his membership in the City Central Committee in April. Howe conducted his own defense. Policeman Admits Mistake. On direct examination Patrolman Pritchard testified that Howe's machine was running at the rate of 22 miles an ernoon at Delmar boulevard and Belt avenue. He said he did not know Howe, fad never seen him before, and was noti- fied that Howe was speeding by the Mounted District Station. Pritchard admitted on cross-examin- ation that he was mistaken when he testified that he did not know Howe. “Isn't it a fact that you arrested me two months ago on the charge that I did not have lights on my ma- chine?”’ asked Howe. “That’s a fact,’’ said Pritchard. “Isn't it also a-fact that you saw me take the machine from the garage yesterday, and that you came around to the front of the house, where Mrs. Howe was waiting, and then followed us;’’ “I followed you after you began going fast.’’ Pritchard asserted that his speedome- ter showed that Howe’s machine was going at the rate of 22 miles an hour. Howe declared on the witness stand that his machine was geared to run not less than 14 miles an hour, and that his speed when arrested was about 15 miles an hour. When the testimony was concluded, Judge Tracy remarked that in view of Patrolman Pritchard’ s conflicting state-

ments he would impose a fine of only $10 and stay it on good behavior.

KANE TAKEN T COURT UNDER HEAVY GUARD Sheriff Nolte and two deputies, with several city detectives at their heels, took Thomas (Red Mike) Kane from the Jail at Division No. ll of the Circuit Court at 10 o’clock Monday morning to plead to the indictment charging him with murdering Fred H. (Yellow Kid) Moehrie two weeks ago. Before the officers took Kane from Jail the Four Courts corridors were cleared. Kane was taken past the ident- ical spot where he shot Moehrle to death, and made his. plea of not guilty before Judge Fisher in the same court- room where hig victim was waiting to be tried for the killing of Sam Young when he walked out into the corridor and was shot. Prisoner Closely Guarded. Close watch was kept on the shert walk between Jail and courtroom and also in court, lest some gang member enact another tragedy in the tempie of justice. The police challenged two gangsters who were seen in the Four Courts build- ing at the hour for opening: court, bux both proved that’ they had business there, having appeared for trial. John A. (Babe) Gleason was to answer to a charge of idling. Joseph Looney, tne only member of the Bottoms Gang still outside jail, had presented himself for trial on a robbery charge. Kane was taken from the jail to court handcuffed te James Wesley McClure, former local manager for the Singer Sewing Machine Co., whose accounts are alleged to have been $25,000 short. Mc- Clure waived the reading of an indict- ment charging him with forgery. Kane and McClure were taken back to their cellg under the same heavy guard,

By Leased Wire From New York Bu- reau of the Post-Dispatch, NEW YORK, June 21.—Paul Sigel, fa- ther of Elsie Sigel, made the assertion this afternoon that on June 3, the day Ling came to the Sigel home and, call- ing Elsie from a group of friends, threatened her with death if she did not give up Chu Gain, his rival for her af- fections. Mr. Sigel said Leong also threatened to kill Chu Gain.

He denied he was the fugitive landlord and said he was a lecturer. Leuing fled after in- forming the police last Friday night that there was “something wrong’ in Leong’s’ room. The police made an in- vestigation, which revealed the crime. “T didn’t know what was going on in my ewn home,” declared, Mr. Sigel. ‘‘I didn’t learn what had been going on I knew my wife and Elsie were Chinese mission workers and always opposed their activities in that direction, but I had no idea how far things had gone.

That he did use his money avisb- ly in this way, entertaining white wom- en on whom his fancy had fallen, is well known to the denizens of China- town, and his estimation of Leong may be gathered from the fact that up to a year ago or less, Leong worked for Gain as a walter. In this restaurant scene lies the be- ginning of Elsie Sigel’s tragical ro- mance. The Port Arthur is directly op- posite the Chinatown and Bowery set- tlement for girls, known in the quarter as the “Girls’ Recreation Roome,” a place that Mrs. Sige! and her daughter visited frequently because of their 'n- terest in Chinatown life. Three years ago Port Arthur was opened with a blaze of fireworks and Oriental celebra- tion as the latest thing in chop suey joints. Leong Worked for Gain. Gain, said to be backed by a syndi- cate of Mott and Pell street merchants, was the manager and proprietor; Leong, intelligent and good-looking as compared with Gain, was one of the waiters. Mrs. Sigel and her daughters, both Elise and Mabel, often dropped into the Port Arthur after they had visited \ “Mother. Todd's mission across. the ‘ way. The tea and quaint Oriental dishes seem to have had a fascination for the women, and they were soon recognized as habitues of the place. Followed soon after an acquaintance with Gain, who was invited to call at the Sigel home. Then an acquaintance with weong, who was also asked to call. The beginning of the love affairs be- tween Elsie and the two Chinese and the working out of them, leading up to ,» the miserable end, is, best unfolded in the letters she wrote them both. The letters the police have in their charge, and they refuse to give them up. But it was ascertained definitely today that Leong, desperate from jealousy, had written Gain a letter but a few days before Elsie Sigel was killed, in which |

under the strain of a flerce examina- tion, confessed to the police that he knew the writer, and that the letter came from Leong. He had paid’no at- tention to it at the time, he said, and, in fact, thought it was a ‘Sjoke” on Leong’s part. When the Sigel crime developed he sought to hide his connec- tion by assuming the Oriental cload of silence and stupidity, but the police broke down his composure, and finally made him tell at least a part of the facts. Tries to Save Himself. From Gain’s fervent protestations It was concluded that he would willingly tell now where Leong fled if he knew, in a desperate endeavor to pull him- self out of the mire of the case that !s gradually closing around him. It is now known positively that Leong started for Washington either the same day or the day after Elsie Sigel was last seen at her home, June % A special delivery letter was found at the National Hotel, Washington, ad- dressed to him. On the back of it the address “Sam Wing, 8 Bayard stre¢, New York,” was scrawled, and some Chinese characters followed beneath this. The letter was mailed June ll, at the New York postoffice, and was never called for. Its contents are unknown. and will remain so until the postof- fice authorities at Washington are sat!s- fled that the interest of justice woulda be best subserved by opening the letter and reading its contents. But the presence or the letter itself shows that, within two days of Elsic Sigel’s disappearance Leong was ex- pected to be in Washington, and to g9 to the National Hotel for his mail. Why he did not call for it, or whether he even went to Washington at all, is unsettled. But inquiries made by de- tectives in the capitol have elicited the assurance that some strange Chinese if not two were in Washington about June 12, 13 and 14, and were in tele- phonic communication with New York City. The nature of their conversa- tions, or the names of the persons they spoke with are not known. Capt. Carey is frank to admit that the police are as far from placing their hands on any one of the three missing Mongolians as they were before the murder was discovered. | Leong in Washington Before and | . After Murder; Woman With Him By Wire From the Washington Bureau of the Post-Dispatch. WASHINGTON, June 21.—A registere.! ‘Jetter, addressed to Leong Ling under his Americanized name of William T. Leon, is in the hands of the postal authorities here. Its tightly sealed flap is believed to conceal the mystery of the murder, in New York, of Elsie Sigel mission worker and friend of Leong, or Leon. In the interests of justice }! is believed that the Postmaster General will order the letter opened. It is now known that Leong was ir Washington after the girl’s disappear- ance, and that she was probably with him, also that he was here after the Many persons now believe she twas murdered here, and her body sent to New York. The letter was addressed to Leong, in care of the National Hotel in this city, and was mailed from New York the evening of Friday, June 11, two days after Elsie Sigel disappeared from her New York home. The sender is named om the back of the envelope as Sam Wing of 8% Bayard street, New York. Girl Probably in Washington. ‘Three important facts have been es- tablished in the investigation of- the ‘Washington end of Elsie Sigel’s death: i. She probably was in Washing- ton with Leong after her disap- ‘pearance from her father’s home in -. New York. _ & The visit of Leong to Washing- ton was premeditated, and was -. known to his friends. in New York. 4/7 3% Leong was in Washington after - the .murder was committed, and he telephoned to New York from Wash- 4ngton 4 hours before the body of the dead girl was discovered in the trunk in his room. | The stories establishing the presence of Leong and the girl in this city are ‘pased on personal identifications from descriptions and pictures of the China- man and murdered girl. ‘Walter E.

The younger of the girls fitted the eacription of Elsie Sigel, and her com- anion that of Leong.

Then, haying established com- munication with friends in New York and learning that the body had not been discovered, they returned to Washing- ton last Tuesday or Wednesday. Wednesday, June 16, the matron of the Young Women’s Christian Home re- reived a letter signed ‘‘Mrs. K. L. Mann, No. 48 Main street, East Orange, N. J.,” asking that a room be reserved for the writer. The letter was dated June 15, and wag mailed that night. In the afternoon of Wednesday, June 16, a woman who described herself as Mrs. Mann called at the home, was told that there was no room there, but was referred to a house next door, where she got accommoda- tions. A few minutes later a Chinese wear- ing a blue serge suit and tan shoes— the invariable attire of Leong—called on her. They held an agitated under- tone conversation, and the Chinese hur- ried away. The woman appeared to be almost hysterical from nervousness. The next day she had two callers, the Chinese in the blue suit and another who an- swers the description of Chung Sin, The two Chinese left the house, and the woman followed. They joined onc another a block away and did not re- turn, In some way the Washington po- lice have connected Mrs. Mann with the woman named Josie, the white wife of a Chinese laundryman at 300 West lorty-second street, this city. “Josie” was hunted by the police last Saturday, but no trace of her could be found. She was a close friend of Elsie Slegel and Leon. It is believed that the woman who met the two Chinese in Washington took money to them from Chinese friends or _ relatives in New York. Neither Leon nor Chung Sin had much money when they left. PREACHER IS REPRIMANDED | FOR CLAPPING HIS HANDS Principal Manners of East St. Louis Thought Rev. E. V. Lamb a Schoolboy. The Rev. E, V. Lamb, pastor of the First Baptist Church in East St. Louis, mistaken for a school boy, was told by Principal Charles Mannérs of the East St. Louis High School, that it was heathenish to applaud at a religious gathering. The Rev. Mr. Lamb was sitting in the high school auditorium to hear the bac- Calaureate sermon delivered by his friend, the Rev. Harold Reader, pastor of the Winstanley Baptist Church. Rev. Mr. Lamb was so pleased with the ap- pearance of the graduating ciass as it raarched into the hall that he clapped his hands several times. Principal Manners, who was seated on the stage, walked down the aisle to where Rev. Mr. Lamb was seated and, taking him by the shoulder, informed him the exercises were religious and that it was very improper for him to applaud. The preacher is boyish-looking, al-

TWO WOMEN IN PARTY

Pleasure Party at Long Lake Has a Very Narrow Escape. Calvin ®Blaettner of Edwardsville, Deputy County Clerk of Madison Coun- ty, Ill, is In line for a Carnegie medal for heroism, by his act Sunday after- noon, in saving the lives of three per- sons from drowning in Long Lake. As Blaettner was passing down the lake in his motorboat he was haltled from the shore by two men who were accompanied by two women, with the request to be taken across the lake. Blaettner, willing to accommodate them, took the party aboard. He learned that they lived in St. Louis and were out for a pleasure trip. Boat Struck a Snag. As the boat was chugging its way across the lake, and when about the middle, it struck a snag and began to sink. As the boat went down, Blaettner, who is an expert swimmer, saw one of the men sinking, and evidently unable to swim or even keep himself afloat. Not far from where the boat went down a floating gasolind tank was anchored for the use vuf motor boats, aud to this buoy Blaetiner swam with the man. One of the women was swiinming to- ward shore, and Blaettner turned his attention to the other, Who was strug- sling in the water and was kept ufloat ty her skirts ‘ba'looning.”” He took her to the floct. Dived for Drowning Man. Then he looked around for the other man. He was not in sight and Blaettner dived and found him lying on the bot- tom of the lake in 20 feet of water. After diving several times, Blaettner managed to get a secure hold on the man, brought him to the surface and swam ashore with him. The man was revived and then Blaettner got a boat and brought the man and the woman on the float to shore. WOMAN SUING FOR DIVORCE BESTS HUSBAND IN COURT TILT Asserts He Told Her That He Wanted to Kidnap Son. Mrs. Helen Reeder, who is suing for a divorce, had the last word in a legal tilt with her husband, Walter Reeder, in Judge Williams’ court Monday. Testimony was being heard on Mrs. Reeder’s application for an injunction to prevent her husband from visiting her mother’s home, at 481A College avenue. Mrs. Reeder and her 4-year- old son, Armand, went there after the separation, and Mrs. Reeder told the Court she fears Reeder is trying to take possession of the child. Reeder, acting as his own attorney, cross-examined his wife. “Haven't I bought you hats and shoes since we separated?” he asked. “You have not,” answered his wife. “Haven't I given you money?” ‘Not a red penny.” “Didn't I treat you kindly?” “You certainly did not.’’ “Who told you I wanted to run away with our boy?’ “You did.” Reeder did not press the cross-ex- amination further. Judge Williams took the case under advisement. MAYOR KREISMANN HURRIEDLY TAKES SECOND OFFICIAL OATH He Had Never Sworn to Obey the Law as Member of the Police Board. It developed Monday that Mayor Kreismann’s hurried departure from Friday’s meeting of the Board of Police Commissioners was for the purpose of a visit to the Circuit Clerk's office, where he took an additional oath of cffice as a member of the Police Board. The Mayor’s regular oath of office in- cludes his solemn promises to act as @ member of the Board of Health and Police Board, but it does not include an oath enacted by the Legislature of 1907. In 1907 the Legislature in passing a bill to increase the membership of the St. Louis Police Department in- cluded in the law the requirement of an oath by the Police Commissioners in which they swear they will not un- der any pretext remove a member of the department on account of his po- litical belief or party affiliation. When Col. Laird and Otto H. Teich- mann, Gov. Hadley’s pppeintess, took their oath as Police Commissioners the new oath was also administered. It was discovered during. Friday's meeting of the board that Mayor Kreismann had not taken the addi- tional oath. MAN KILLED BY SWITCH ENGINE He Is Thought to Be Orley Stouder of Red Key, Ind.

ote age Se s ne - Eee aa Landscape. Gardener Finds Home Deserted; Note Indi- cates Drowning in Lake. QUARRELED 20 YEARS id T. W. Bartlett Asks Sheriff to Search for Four Members of His Family. Sheriff Grueninger of St. Louis Coun- ty received a call Monday from T. W. Bartlett of 134 Kingsland avenue, in the county, who requested the Sheriff to help him find his wife, two daughters and son. His entire family disappeared Sunday afternoon while he was out for a walk. He fears his-wife has drowned herself and the two smaller children. Bartlett, who is a landscape gardener, told the Sheriff this is the culmination of 20 years of quarreling between him- self and his wife. He said he left his home Sunday afternoon at 2:30, telling his wife he was going for a walk in the country. He attended the show at Suburban Park, and got home about 10:15 o’clock. The house was deserted. Bartlett found this letter: “Papa: “Ruth is going away, and I am per- fected with grief and fear, for you would have killed me long ago if it had not been for her. If I stay here I will surely throw-the babies in the well and jump in after them. Going to Creve Coeur. “I intend to go to Creve Coeur—I don’t know what for, only to ramble in the woods and then drown myself. “You said only yesterday you wished we were all gone, and you have so often told me to taxe the babies away. “I have known for a long time Ruth would go away, and I made all arrange- ments for her a good home. I am going to have it better for my children if it does cost my life. “You so often told me you could be @ good man if I was not in the way. “Now, what I want to say—Do have the courage of your convictions. My nerves have got the best of me and I see no chance of improvement. If I stay another week there certainly will be something desperate done in this house. Might Write Later, “I may write you a letter tomorrow morning and give it to a conductor to mail. Good-by, “P. S.—You can take Ruth's trunk to Bennett’s until she sends for it.” Bartlett told the Sheriff his daugh- ter Ruth is 14 years old. Charley, the son, is 4, and Annie, the baby, 2. Bart- lett said he had searched in the neigh- borhood of his home for his wife and children, and he feared she had taken them to Creve Coeur Lake and drowned them and herself, as her let- ter indicated. FLORISSANT HILLS LOTS ARE STILL HAVING RAPID SALE 350 of the 450 Plots Have Already Been Disposed Of. At the close of Sunday’s sale at Flor- issant Hills, David P. Leahy, president of the David P. Leahy House and Home Co., which is marketing the property, announced that a total of 360 out ef the 450 lots comprising the subdivision, had been disposed of. The indications are that next Saturday, Sunday and Fourth of July sales will close out the tract. A rush marked Sunday’s sale and ex- tra salesmen were necessary in the aft- ernoon, “It eclipses my biggest previous suc- cesses in St. Louis,’”’ Mr. Leahy de- clared Monday, “and is indicative of the receptive character of the realty market in this city. Florissant Hills could not be better situated for medium-priced homeseekers, the land being high and dry, and convenient to several street car lines.’’ Realty men say that the secret of Mr. Leahy’s success is his genius for loca- tions, and the fact that he presents his offerings at the psychological moment. Thomas F, Martin, who is associated eae Mr. Leahy in New York, and who olds several millions of dollars in New York realty, having alone $900,000 in first Manhattan Island mortgages, is the guest of Mr. Leahy in St. Louis. “St. Louls is a fine city,” said Mr. Martin, ‘‘and the people are the kind it does one good to meet. It obviously has a big future. “It ls geographically the center of the country, and is destined, eventually, to be commercially its focal point, if it is not now. “I am casting about, and if I see corner in the business center of the cit that looks like it had a future, I may leave some of my money in 8t.

+ WULRECULITE CHINESE RESORTS Action Is Planned to Safeguard Women Missionaries and Restaurant Frequenters, LID FOR SUEY, HOUSES Chief Creecy Sets Watch on Places Where Beer Is Served. The Chinese chop suey restaurants and Hop Alley will be closely watched by the police of St. Louis, who have had their attetion called to the Chinese problem in American cities by the mur- der of Elsie Sigel in New York. ' Chief Creecy was asked Monday what police action would be taken. He re- plied: “The law does not make any distinc- tion between a Chinese and an Amert- can in the matter of restaurant opera- tion. A Chinese has the same right as anybody else to obtain a license and open a restaurant. We would be guilty of oppression if we attempted to inter- fere with an orderly Chinese restaur- ants’s business or customers. “T cannot understand a white woman's desire to go into a Chinese restaurant and eat, but that is a problem for the woman herself. We cannot molest her, as the restaurant has a right to stay open and the woman has a right to go there in preference to a white man's restaurant if she desires. ‘But we can and will watch these places strictly. Already several Chinese have been arrested on charges of dis- pensing beer without licenses.. Restau- rants without dramshop licenses have the right to go out and buy beer for a customer who pays for the drink and whe asks that it be brought to him as a matter of accommodation. Frequentcrs May Be Arrested. “But we won't stand for these Chinese restauranis serving beer to everybody on the pretense that they buy it as an accommodation for each customer. And if there is any disorder we will have the proprietor in police court immediate- ly. Alse, if the place is disorderly, we could arrest the women who frequent it. “As to the Chinese mission work, we can't, of course, interfere with women whe want to do that sort of thing, but we can and will watch everything of the kind we hear of. “In my opinion, the immigration laws are too lax. There are too many Chinese of bad character permitted to enter the United States as things are now.”’ ~ Pive Chinese, charged with being in the United States unlawfully, were ar- raigned before United States Judge Mc- Pherson on complaint of Immigration Inspector Dunn Monday, but their cases went over till 10 a. m. Tuesday. The charges against the Chinese have been pending several weeks. Excise Commissfoner Caulfield said he could not interfere with Chinese res-

taurants which sold beer without licen- ses. “My duties are confined to the super- vision of licensed places,’’ he said Mon- day. “The unlicensed places are for the police to deal with.’ Most of the chop suey places are either above or adjoining saloons. These places are visited not only by women who are social outcasts, but sight-seeing expeditions, or whgp have “the chop suey habit.’’ The Chinese connected with the restaurants soon find a way to form an acquaintance with young women customers whe go to the place often, whether they are respect- able or not. In Hop Alley. several white wives. Chinese have Ne Missionaries in Hop Alley. There are no women missionaries who go among the Chinese in their own quarters or who are visited by the Ori- entals in their homes. At the First Christian Church there is a Chinese Sunday school, but nothing of a social nature is permitted there, according to the Rev. Earle Wilfley, pastor of the church. There are about thirty Chinese in the school, Mr. Wilfley told a Post-Dispatch reporter, and half a dozen of them have been baptized. They are taught by in- dividual teachers, mature women, men and young women, in the parlors of the church from 8 till 5 p. m. every Sun- day. Communion service is held and at 6 p. m. a luncheon, which the Chi- nese pay for, is served. After the luncheon a Chinese Christian meeting is held. “TI know the possible dangers of social intercourse between the races,’’ Mr. Wil- fley said, ‘so our Chinse school is watched very strictly. I never have heard of a Chinaman being entertained in the home of one of our church mem- bers. And the teaching is all done right in the church parlors. There are ind}

vidual teachers, but the school work is

In Greenwich they entertained lavishly at their home, 60 Steamboat road, and it came as a great shock to their ac- quaintances when Mrs. Montells left her husband last summer and soon aft- er began the divorce proceedings tn which she charged him with “habitual intemperance and intolerable cruelty.’’ The case was referred to a committee by the Court, and was heard in cham- bers, Mr. Montells making his fight only on the ground that his wife was not entitled to any alimony. Mrs. Montells sued under the name of Ellen Christy Montells, and by court decree her name is changed to Ellen Morgan Christy. ~~ OO GOT DIVORCE FROM ST.

GOING FOR AN LL.D.

Travels Hundreds of Miles Out of Way Just to Visit City.

Gov. John B. Shafroth of Colorado, na- tive Missourian, on his way to Ann Ar- bor, Mich., to receive a degree from the State University, traveled several] hun- of his way to spend Louis. Louis is the first city said Gov. Shafroth to a Post- Dispatch reporter at the Jefferson Ho- tel. “To me St. Louis is a marvelous city, and I never come out this way witheut stopping here for at least a day. St. Louis is the city with which I compare al! other cities. “It does me good to be here for a day or two. My father was a merchant at Fayette, Howard County, Mo., and when I was a boy he used to bring me to St. Louis. “T have never outgrown my boyhood love for St. Louis, although I have lived in Colorado for 30 years. We are now having a great development in our State. “At least $10,000,000 is now being spent for irrigating reservoirs in Colorado, and we are developing our water power. Wires are now being laid over the mountains from the Grand River in Western Colorado to Denver to transmit electric power. “When the system is completed we will have cheap. electric light ~ and power. Colorado Springs has ele¢tric- ity, developed by water pewer, at % a cent a kilowatt hour, and Denver will have it, too. Electricity generated by water power is better than natural gas, for the gas fields will become exhausted, while the rivers will run on forever. ‘‘There is a craze for land in Colo- rado. Recently a 10-acre tract of irri- gated land in Western Colorado, on which there was a bearing peach or- chard, sold for $4300 an acre, a record price for land in the United States.”’ Gov. Shafroth said he hesitated about going all the way to Ann Arbor to get the degree of LL. D. until a friend re- marked: “Why, Governor, I would rather have that degree than your office.’’ ‘“T hesitated no longer,’’ said the Gov- ernor, ‘“‘but packed my grip and started for Ann Arbor, via St. Louls.” dred miles out Monday in St. “St. saw,”’ I ever - 44, a

In Greenwich they entertained lavishly at their home, 60 Steamboat road, and it came as a great shock to their ac- quaintances when Mrs. Montells left her husband last summer and soon aft- er began the divorce proceedings tn which she charged him with “habitual intemperance and intolerable cruelty.’’ The case was referred to a committee by the Court, and was heard in cham- bers, Mr. Montells making his fight only on the ground that his wife was not entitled to any alimony.

GOING FOR AN LL.D. Travels Hundreds of Miles Out of Way Just to Visit City.

Gov. John B. Shafroth of Colorado, na- tive Missourian, on his way to Ann Ar- bor, Mich., to receive a degree from the State University, traveled several hun- dred miles out of his way to spend Monday in St. “St. saw,”’ Louis. Louis the first city said Gov. Shafroth to a Post- Dispatch reporter at the Jefferson Ho- tel. “To me St. Louis is a marvelous city, and I never come out this way witheut stopping here for at least a day. St. Louis is the city with which I compare all other cities. “It does me good to be here for a day or two. My father was a merchant at Fayette, Howard County, Mo., and when I was a boy he used to bring me to St. Louis. “T have never outgrown my boyhood love for St. Louis, although I have lived in Colorado for 30 years. We are now having a great development in our State. “At least $10,000,000 is now being spent for irrigating reservoirs in Colorado, and we are developing our water power. Wires are now being laid over the mountains from the Grand River in Western Colorado to Denver to transmit electric power. “When the-system is completed we will have cheap electric light and power. Colorado Springs has ele¢tric- ity, developed by water power, at % a cent a kilowatt hour, and Denver will have it, too. Electricity generated by water power is better than natural gas, for the gas fields will become exhausted, while the rivers will run 6n forever. ‘There is a craze for land in Colo- rado. Recently a 10-acre tract of irri- gated land ,in Western Colorado, on which there was a bearing peach or- chard, sold for $4300 an acre, a record price for land in the United States.”’ Gov. Shafroth said he hesitated about going all the way to Ann Arbor to get the degree of LL. D. until a friend re- marked: ‘“‘Why, Governor, I would rather have that degree than your office.’’ ‘T hesitated no longer,’’ said the Gov- ernor, ‘‘but packed my grip and started for Ann Arbor, via St. Louts.” * —s— — oe is I ever >

_ IRIGE CLONES GOULD 1S SED ROM. GAILI Unexpected Move Leaves Wife’s Attorney Unprepared to Continue Case. DEPOSITIONS ARE READ Witnesses in Rebuttal Deny Plaintiff Ever Drank to Excess. - nee By Loased Wire From the New York Bureau of the Post-Dispatch. NEW YORK, June 21.—There was a big surprise at the opening of the sec- ond week of the separation suit of Mrs. Katherine Clemmons Gould against Howard Gould in Part 10 of the Su- preme Court today when the defense announced that it had decided to close its case on the evidence already in. As soon as Justice Dowling had taken the bench, De Lancey Nicoll, chief coun- sel for Howard Gould, arose and made this. statement: “Your Honor, since the recess last Friday, my associates and I have de- cided that the testimony which we have offered in support of our claims is so complete and full that there is no neces- sity of going further. We have there- for agreed to rest at this time.’’ This mean that Howard Gould would be saved from the ordeal of going on the stand to accuse his own wife and to answer the searching questions which his wife’s lawyer, Clarence Shearn, would be sure to ask him. Gould looked relieved as he sat chat- ting with ‘“‘Con’’ Sullivan, one of his lawyers. It was evident that he shared the beliefe of his lawyers that by the proof already in the record of the case was sufficient to justify his attitude toward her. Shearn Taken Urewares., All the mass of evidence submitted by him was intended to excuse his refusal to live with his wife unless she should sign an agreement to quit drinking and to quit humiliating him before his frends; to curb her expenditures and to cetse from interfering with the man- agement of Castle Gould. Shearn had expected that the other Side would require at least three days more in its efforts to justify the al- leged abandonment of his client, and he “was therefore unprepared at the mo- ment to begin offering his rebuttal tes- timony. Justice Dowling therefore per- mitted him to read depositions while his runners went for some of his wit- nesses. He first offered the affidavit of Mrs. Alice Stickney Rankhead, wife of Col. Henry M. Bankhead, U. S. A., stationed at Atlanta, Ga: Nicoll objected to this affidavit, saying it would cover nothing set up by the de- fense. “We want to show,” Shearn, ‘‘the falsity of the charge that Mrs. Gould was habitually and contin- ually intoxicated from 1902 to the pres- ent date.” “Do you regard such evidence as nec- essary?’’ asked the court. “I want to leave no possible point un- covered,’’ said Mr. Shearn, and he went ahead and read Mrs. Bankhead’s depo- sition, “Qaly Drank Moderately.” At the time of her marriage to Col. Bankhead, then a Lieutenant, in 1903, the deponent had been living in Cairo, Egypt, as the ward of John J. Long, United States Consul-General. With her Svardian and others, including Prince Mahammed Ali, brother of the Khedive, she had dined with the Goulds at Shep- ard’s Hotel in Cairo and had gone with them for a yacht trip up the Nile. Later, in 1904 and 1905, Mrs. Bankhead said that she had often visited Mrs. Gould at the Waldorf-Astoria, at the St. Regis and at Castie Gould. The army officer’s wife was positive that her hostess never drank to excess, ‘was never incoherent, never boisterous and never showed any effects of liquor. Mrs, Gould’s conduct, she insisted, was invariably all that could be ex- pected of a refined gentlewoman. The deposition added: ‘Mrs. Gould used to take a cocktail before lunch and dinner and also drank’ moderately of wine—several glasses—at dinner, but she never to my knowledge was drunk after dinner and her conduct was al- Ways refined and dignified, above re- proach and in every way an example of what a lady’s deportment should be.” Mrs. Bankhead went on to say that she had been in Mrs. Gould's company in her apartments and on Riverside drive and in Chicago in 1907 and had seen her in New York in 1908. Her Gaughter, bern in 1906, was named Kath- erine for Mrs. Gould. Mysterious Inn Is Disclosed. William F. Murphy, the next witness, an automobile broker, living in Brook- lyn, had charge of the private garage ‘at Castle Gould from September, 1900, ‘until April, 1902. He often drove cars in which the Goulds rode anda frequent- ly took Mrs. Gould over the State and through adjacent Long Island territory. He was positive he never saw her show @ny signs of liquor and that he never heard her use improper language. Nicol caused Murphy to say Mrs. Gould had discussed the case with him about a year ago, when he called on her tn her apartments at the St. Regis ana asked her to buy an automobile from explained Mr. as : him, It developed also that one Fla- , how a hotel keeper at Fowler ave- : ue and Thirty-second street, who had des active in obtaining the testimony | ® of Murphy and others for Mrs. Gould's side, kept a roadhouse on the Vander- - bilt cup course in 1906. has been Much talkin this case about a mysteri- soe enmenne on the Vanderbilt course, | Proof is ‘et.

He never detected any evidence of intoxication about her, he said. Calis Witness Forman “Farnum,” Shearn read the affidavit of Col. Bank- head, who testified that he was a son of United States Senator Bankhead of Alabama: In the main, Col. Bankhead’s testimony followed the lines laid down by his wife. He swore he had never seen Mrs. Gould intoxicated, never heard her swear and always regarded her language, manner and general de- meanor as being proper in every respect. He never saw her drink brandy and soda—only a single cocktail before din- ner and then some wine at the meal. The affidavits being disposed of, Shearn called as his first rebuttal wit- ness, Louis O. Forman, superintendent for a heating and ventilating company, He said he was at Castle Gould at various times from 1901 to 1905, super- vising the installation of the heating and ventilating plants. “I used to see Mrs. Gould every two or three weeks,” said Mr. Forman. “She was taking an active hand in directing the work. In fact, she generally super- intended the work. I never saw her under the influence of liquor. She never swore or cursed in my presence or did anything improper.” On cross-examination Nicoll, seeming- ly by accident, called Forman ‘‘Mr. Far- num,” and caused a laugh in which both the Goulds joined. Witness Disputes His Brother. Jacob Cocks of Port Washington, whose brother William testified for the husband, came forward-as a witness for the wife. Jacob Cocks, a general con- tractor, said he began doing work for the Goulds shortly after they bought the Long Island estate. mn EE antl seen her drunk, nor heard AFTER DOCTORS FAILED Lydia E.

Ac- cording to Jacob Cocks, Mrs. Gould was sober at a time when his brother said she was intoxicated. Cocks had been present at the row between Mrs. Gould and Maurice Malloy, her husband's e8- tate manager, regarding the removal of cattle from the place. Mrs. Gould was perfectly sober, he thought. Malloy, in his evidence, had said Mrs. Gould was intoxicated. Shearn was allowed to read from the affidavit of John McRea Cameron, al- though he had been on the stand once. Cameron, formerly a coachman for Mrs. Gould, was quoted in his deposition as saying that on that memorable occasion when Mrs. Gould assembled all the heads of departments at the estate of- fice, he thought Mrs. Gould was sober. A recess was ordered after Shearn had premised to produce Cameron for cross- examination. ARMY OF CRAWFISH INVADES STORE AND CAPTURES CHEESE Headed by Rear Guard Crustacean Host Marches Upon East Alton. A Coxey’s army of crawfish invaded East Alton Monday. Marching back- wards, as crawfish, and some baseball teams that could be mentioned, al- ways do, they filed into John Jones grocery, and with .unerring precision backed up to the cheese counter. They were rolling out a big, red, spherical Edam cheese when Jones spied them and chased them away with a big stick. A few minutes later W. A. Clark heard a strange rattling among tho bottles on a shelf in his pharmacy. Ordinarily a crawfish cannot climb, but these were Alton crawfish. The druggist chased them out and they marched about the streets, nipping the toes of such citizens of the town as happened to be barefoot. Where the crawfish came from was a mystery until Charles Smith and Scott Franklin, 12-year-old boys, con- fessed that they caught them in the river and turned them loose ‘“‘just to see the fun.’’ TROOPS GUARD NEGRO CHARGED WITH ATTACK ON LITTLE GIRL Soldiers Are Under Orders to Meet Attempt at Violence With Bullets. NEW ORLEANS, June 21.—With the trial of Will Mack, a negro, charged with assaulting a 10-year-old white girl, scheduled to begin at noon, this town is practically under martial law. The courthouse is now surrounded by four companies of troops and four more will be here by the time court is opened. Gov. Noel has issued definite orders to protect the prisoner at a.l cost, and any attempt to attack the courthouse will be met with real bullets. “Shoot to kill,” are the orders. However, the evidence against Mack is said to be conclusive, and it is pre- dicted that he will be sentenced to death within a few moments after he goes to trial. A half dozen attempts have been made to lynch’ Maca within the last month, and he has occupied a doven different cells in as’ many counties ‘since he was first arrested.

Requirements. OVER ROUGH COUNTRY Trolley Wires on Course Make It Dangerous for Low Flights, WASHINGTON, June 21.—The Wright brothers went to Fort Myer today and proceeded to complete the assembling of the flying machine. Orville Wright wi'l resume the trial brought to an end by the accident last September. The two aviators, fresh from the hon- ors accorded them by their homecoming, tovk off their coats, and, assisted by their chief mechanic, Charles E. Taylor, got to work. It is possible they will be ready for the first preliminary flight on Wednesday. ‘rhe Wrights must complete their offi- cial trials by Monday, and it is evi- dent from the fact that they have not applied for an extension of time that it is their belief they can make the speed and endurance trials by that time. Since their flights last year the Fort Myer drill grounds have been entirely enclosed by trolley tracks. This makes it dangerous for a machine flying low. A telephone wire, which connected tue aeroplane shed with the headquarters of the Fort, was removed today at the re- quest of the Wrights, because of the ad- ditional danger. The speed trial of the Wright aero- plane, which must be made in a flight over a course of five miles from the Fort and return will be the first ever made by a heavier than air machine over rought and hilly country. ‘the endurance trial will require the Wrights to remain aloft for two hours, the machine carrying two men and suf- ficient fuel for a trip of 200 miles. The Wrights today informed Gen. Al- len, chief signal officer, of the course which they will take in the speed trial. Orville Wright has already expressed his belief that the course running from Fort Myer in a southerly direction to Alexandria, Va., is the least danger- Ous. This morning Orville expressed the be- lief that the new machine would make an average speed of 40 miles an hour. Gen. Allen will have a lookout at the Fort Myer observatory, to watch the speed flights of the aeroplane, and, in case of an accident, an automobile, with medica! officers, will be ready to leave immediately.

Mrs. Louis Bauer, wife of a muscian at West End Heights, was awakened in her home, 1217 Clinton ‘street, shortly before midnight Sunday by @ man who held ‘her in her bed with his knee on her chest, and, with one hand over her mouth and the other over her eyes, 80 that she could neither scream nor see who her assailant was. For more than two hours Mrs. Bauer lay in her bed, at times unconscious, after two burglars bound and gagged her, chloroformed her little son and her dog, and poured some of the drug on the cloths with which her own head was wrapped. They ransacked the drawers in the dressing cases in two rooms, torturing her meanwhile by pulling her hair and stole $0, which she had hidden there Sunday morning. She was not released from her painful position until 2 o’clock this morning, when her husband nhasiebans from his work. She and her son ee, 4 years old, had retired at 9 o’clock.

The juror’s physician stated that the juror might be able to be present tc- morrow, so court was adjourned un- til then. SSS ae SHE | and her little Irish terrier ‘“‘Topsy” was/ @ barking furiously. “Hey, you, give that dog some of the dope out of the bottle!”’ called the man who held her down. In a moment or two, Mrs. Bauer heard the thump of the dog’s body on. the floor and the barking ceased. While one of the men held her so she could not move, the other tied her to the bed with one of the sheets, passing it over her body, under the bed and knot- ting it. Her head was then covered with a pillow slip, and a towel was stuffed into her mouth and tied about her head. While they were at work binding her, her son Harvey. woke and began to whimper. “Fix that kid,”” commanded the man who seemed to be the leader, speaking with a German accent. Wedding Ring Is Returned. ‘Take a smell at the bottle, kid,”’ said the other man, and in a few moments Pe boy ceased crying. The burglars then went into the front room, where there is a dresser in which there are six drawers. ‘“‘Where’s the key to that drawer?” he asked her. She was gagged so that she could not speak and she shook her head. She would have been glad to tell him if she could have done so to save further suf- fering. The burglar caught hold of her hair and almost pulled it from the scalp. ‘‘Where’s that key?’ he asked again, and cursed her. Thieves Get $50 in Purse, “Tf you don’t tell us where that key is we'll dope up the kid,”’ said the man who was pulling her hair. Frantically Mrs. Bauer jerked her head in the direction of the dresser in her room in an effort to make them understand. She heard them unlock the drawer and take out her pocketbook containing $60. Just then the footsteps of a man were heard on the _ street. The burglars stopped talking and Mrs. Bauer heard them fall to the floor ard try to crawl under the bed. ‘“‘Let’s get out of here before he comes,’ said the burglar who seemed to be following the other’s commands and who was the more timid of the two. There came the sound of a key turf ing, but not in the door of the Bauer flat. It was next door. Maurice Far- rell, who lives above the Bauers, had returned home. Mrs. Bauer heard him go unstairs and for several minutes heard him waiking about, but could not sound an alarm. Meantime the burglars were silent. Husband Finds Her at 2-A. M. When she returned to her senses she felt someone frantically tearing away the cloths that bound her head and held her to the bed and she looked up into the frightened face of her hus- band. It was 2 o’clock a. m. The only identifying thing about the burglars, Mrs. Bauer could tell was that one of the men spoke with a German accent and the other lisped slightly. Boy Thinks Robbers Negroes, Farvey, the son, said that when he awoke he saw two negroes in the room and that the one who made him smell of the bottle was a negro, but Mrs. Bauer said they may have been black- ened or have worn masks, for they did not speak like negroes.

PURE MILK AND FREE ICE FUND. The Post-Dispatch The hot weather has come again and the babies have begun to suffer. The Post-Dispatch Pure Milk and Free Ice Fund has again begun its life-saving work, and the fund is open for subscrip- tions. There is no more important factor !n the development of St. Louis than the baby. The infant of today is the citi- zen of tomorrow. Summer in the downtown and tene- ment districts of a big city is a time to try men’s souls, and it is doubly hard on the babies. In the hot weather their vitality is at its lowest ebb and they are more vulnerable to attack by disease. . Milk is the most prolific breeder of disease germs of al! food stuffs, and infants are the most susceptible io disease germs of all living creatures. Vor these reasons, thousands of little lives are sacrificed in the big cities every summer. It is to save these little ones that the Post-Dispatch Pure Milk and Free Ice Fund is operated, and that it does untold good is attested «:y the success that has attended thes en- terprise in the past. There are now 800 babies being treai- ed. In the hottest weather the number averages 1900. The highest number in one day !ast year was 3300, and of the 1800 individua! babies treated last sum- mer, only 14 died. To operate this vast system requires ' money and lots of it, and the Post-Dis- patch Pure Mile and Free Ice Fund exists on charity solely. money except that subscribed by be- nsvolent persons. Voluntary subscrip- tions are necessary, as the money de- rived from those parents who are able to pay does not cover the cost of the bottles.

stations and a corps of physicians are necessary for the, administration of the Post-Dispatch Pure Milk and Free Ice Fund, and the charitable people of St. Louis must aid if the babies are to be saved. The milk comes from a special herd of cows at Shiloh, Ill., owned by the St. Louis Dairy Co. It is sent to St. Louls each morning. H. E. Mortland, in charge of the laboratory, tests all the milk and inspects the cows at fre- quent intervals. Qualified physicians throughout the city are furnished with blank prescrip- tions, in accordance with formulas pre- pared by Mr. Mortland. The parents may take their sick babies to these phy- sicilans and they will be examined free. The prescriptions are forwarded to the laboratory, where Mr. Mortland pre- pares the milk, in accordance with them. This is then sent to the distributing sta- tions, where the parents may obtain it. Parents who are too poor to pay are given the milk free of charge, if they are found worthy. Those who can pay are charged 1 cent, two cents and 3 cents a bottle, according to the quan- tity. Milk Carefully Handled. All milk is carefully tested by the chemist, and it is sterilized, pasteurized and bottled by automatic machinery. It is never touched by hand. All milk left over at night is thrown out, and no milk is ever used more than 24 hours after it is prepared. The milk is pasteurized for 20 minutes

at 160 degrees, and the bottles and corks are sterilized at 212 degrees for an hour. Pure milk is furnished by the Post- Dispatch Pure Milk and Free Ice Fund all the year round, but the greatest de- mand is from June 1 to Sept. 30. The work costs thousands of dollars each year and the money derived from the sale of milk is infinitesimal. Most of the parents are unable to pay any- thing, and those who pay give but a few cents a day.

DIPSOMANIA, AS GIRLS HERITAGE, GIVES NEW PLOT Novel Story Told in Stanislaus Stange’s “Her Other Self” at Suburban.

AMELIA BINGHAM, STAR Teena She Plays Dual Role in Melo- drama Full of ‘Thrill” Situations.

LAYWRIGHT STANISLAUS a STANGE had to make a Iiittle curtain speech at the close of the third act of “Her Other Self’ at Sub- urban Garden last aight. It was the play’s premiere, and the prolonged calls for the author indicated that the audience was enjoying Mr. Stange’s somewhat uncommon melo- drama very much indeed and wished to let him know it. Amelia Bingham, who played the star dual roles in Mr. Stange’s exciting work, was also obliged to speak in her. proper person across the footlights, voic- ing her thanks for appreciation of her work. In “Her Other Self’’ Mr. Stange has obviously aimed at the “thrill’’ target and as obviously hit it. In playing its double star role Miss Bingham, who keenly relishes the ‘“‘in- tense’ in drama, aims at the same tar- get chosen by Mr. Stange and pierces its center even more truly. The result was the speeches just mentioned. A Girl Dipsomaniac Heroine. The reason why “Her Other Self’’ is a somewhat uncommon melodrama lies in’ the fact that one of its dual star roles presents a girl-dipsomaniac piti- fully struggling against her inherited love of drink. This is a novel figure for the con- templation of playgoers. It makes an audience sit up and take notice. There is one moment, in the frenzied reaction from a debauch, when Cath- erine Alwyn, the dipsomaniac, is almost as horrible a figure as the Jean Coupe- aud seen years ago when Thomas W. Keene made his first big melodrama hit in “Drink,’’ the English dramatization of Emile Zola’s ‘‘L’Assommotir.’’ Miss Bingham plays this moment for all it is worth. Mr. Stange has given her a remarkable opportunity, entirely off the beaten track, and she is so in- tent upon improving the opportunity that she comes perilously nearly over- playing the emotion of that moment. But it “grips’’ the house—unpleasantly, yet effectively. At first thought, one would say that the “lightning changes’’ made by Miss Pingham from the role of Anne Carew, the impersonator, to that of Catherine Alwyn, the impersonated, and vice versa, are also a part of the play’s novelty, but this isn’t true. The appeal of this trick in melodrama is old, only i. is made in stories of a different character. It is not unltkely that “Her Other Self’’ will develop into a capable ve- hicle to carry Miss Bingham through the next winter season. Mr. Stange han- dies his new situations well and is care- ful to make the wedding bells ring for both Anne Carew, the stenographer, and Catherine Alwyn, the Judgebs daughter, at the play’s close. This meets an insistent conventional demand in melodrama. Other Roles Well Played. Miss Bingham is well supported. The touch of nature is strongest in the work of Miss Marie Haynes, as Mrs. Maggie O’Flynn, keeper of a lodging house. George 8S. Spencer does breezy work as Jack Morton, 2 New York newspaper man, in love with Anne Carew. It’s always difficult for Harry Fenwick toa look and act like a villain, but James Waters, a political jobster, is a good sort of villain in the final analysis. and that makes the Fenwick task easier. Miss Cora Witherspoon has only a slight demand to meet as Jane Bel- mar, Catherine Alwyn’'s aunt. In the ‘‘villainess’’ role of Mrs. Rose Osterlee, relentless persecutor of the girl-dipsomaniac, Miss Frances Neli}- son makes you regret that there are no “gallery gods" in a summer theater —they’d go wild over her work. Wilson Hummel is dignified and paternal as Judge Alwyn, and Morris McHugh does his utmost with the insignificant part of Noyles, a butler. The Stephen Strat- ton of King Baggot, in love witi, Catherine Alwyn, is manful and mag: netic. The play is in four acts. Its biggest scene is that In the third, where Anne Carew, masquerading as Catherine A}. wyn, ‘foils’ the latter’s enemies to beat the band. RIPLEY D. SAUNDERS. JAMES O'NEILL IN “VIRGINIUS.” HE classic drama amid scenes of T twentieth century summer garden counter-attractions, had its first presentation of the current season at the Delmar Dramatic Theater last even- ing, when James O'Neill and the De}- mar stock company gave a notable pre- duction of “Virginius."”” So impressive was the play, so absorbing the familiar story of Virginius and his fair daugh- ter, Virginia, that after the fall of the final curtain the audience remained seated and gave the leading players repeated curtain calls. It was a com- plete triumph for the classic art. James O'Neill may be more popular in other plays, but he is at his best in the character of Virginius. In stature, voice, jesture, in the clear and colorful reading of his lines, he has few equals and no superiors on the English-speak- ing stage in the old classic plays, and with the exception of a few minor char. acters, he has never had better sup- two curtain port than the present company. Frances Ring a Notable Virginia. The change of the stellar atrraction gave opportunity for

shared honors with O'Neill and made of Virginia a no less interesting character than that of Virginius. With face and form of classic mold, an intelligent un- derstanding of the character, clear and poetic reading of the lines, a natural charm that young womanhoood has blessed her with, she had never had a part better suited to her. Charlies Millward as Appius Claudius added to the good impression he has made in St. Louis in other plays, but his work was overshadowed by the im- pressive figure of Virginius. Thomas Meighan, as Icilius, was satisfying in the stronger scenes, but in the tender love scenes with Virginia there was always the suggestion of forced acting and self-consciousness. The other parts were competently handled. GORDON 8. SERVANT,

— Ten Things You’ About Milk Should Know Here are ten facts about milk which every housewife should know. It is worth all you pay for milk in a year to let us convince you on one of them. 1—About Germs There are myriads of germs in every drop of raw milk, There are germs of typhoid if the milk cans are washed in bad water. There are germs of consumption if the cow is tubercular, and one cow in ten is infected. There are germs that cause bowel trouble, and two-thirds of infant mortality is attrib- uted to them. Van Camp’s is an absolutely germless milk. Our cows are inspected, and the milk is ster- 2—About Cows Milkman’s milk comes largely from mongrel cows—cows of no standard breed. Van Camp’s comes from Holstein cows— cows that result from 2,000 years of good ilized. breeding.

This is milk. saved in Van Camp’s. Then we evaporate two-thirds of the water to reduce the cost of handling. We have dairies and evaporating plants in six states, so we rarely have far to ship. If raw milk was sold at six cents per quart it would cost about the same as Van Camp’s, but would lack the convenience and healthful- 4—Convenience waste.

MONDAY EVENING, JUNE 21, 1909. 9 ger eR ho? PRR Mr te 10 KILL SEL Physician Takes Prussic Acid Erroneously Believing He Had Incurable Disease. WAS ALL IMAGINATION Poison He Used Was Same He Once Recommended as Best for Self-Destruction. — A belief that he had heart disease, which the repeated assurances of other ’ leading physicians could not shake, so fastened itself on the mind of Dr. Jus- tin Steer tat he suffered all the pain he would have felt had his disease been a reality. Dreading to face a future full of such suffering, he took the most powerful poison known and was found dead in bed at his home, 3138 Washington ave- nue, at 7:30 a. m. Sunday. Dr. Steer was St. Louis’ leading diag- nostician in heart and lung cases and had an income approximating $75,000 a year. When other physicians were puzzled by the condition of a patient, especially if they believed the patient to have one of the diseases in which Dr. Steer specialized, he was called in often to give a diagnosis. His Opinion Was Final. His opinion was never questioned. When he said that a patient had this er that affection of the heart or lungs, it was accepted as a finality, no matter how the symptoms might have confused others. He was a sort of court of ap- peal in his profession. But his diagnosis of his own case was : wrong, several physicians who made an exhaustive examination say. Dr. Steer believed that he had aneurism of the aorta. The physicians whom he coen- sulted say positively that his trouble was imaginary—psychological, not or- ganic. In his own fancy there were the symptoms that his own practiced mind long had recognized as the manifesta- tions of the disease from which he be- Heved he “was suffering. Often Suffered Excruciating Pain. And, as his thoughts dwelt upon this, he began to feel the actual pain that accompanies the disease. The pain grew more and more severe, often, he said, being excruciating. When he began to imagine himself a victim of one of those diseases, suffer- ers from which flocked in great num- | bers to his office every day, he bore the pain he felt with quiet heroism for years. In his mental state, however, it was impossible to find diversion of the mind from the one absorbing theme, for the contemplation and study of diseases of the heart kept him busy censtantly. Dr. Steer was a member of the Wash- ington University medical faculty. Stu- dents of that schoo! recall that he once expressed a partiality for prussic acid as a means of committing sultcide. They recall that he said in a recent lecture: “Tf any of you shoulé wish to climb the golden stairs before the decree of nature is passed, take a drop or two of prussic acid and there will be no eccasion to call a doctor, as all your fils and worries, imaginary and other- wise, will be at an end.” Goaded by Constant Pain. When, goaded by his auto hypnotic pain and almost broken under the stress of his extensive practice, he gave up night work entirely some months ago, it is believed now that his own thoughts turned to the drug he had recommended for putting an end to “troubles, imagi- nary and otherwise.”’ A friend saw him on the street a few days ago before his death. He looked haggard. The friend asked him if he was ill. “I have more work than two men can do,” he said, wearily, ‘‘and I suf- fer great pain.’’ Dr. H. A. Geitz, who was Dr. Steer’s associate, and who makes his home at the Steer residence, held a conference with Dr. Steer Saturday night. The senior physician spoke of several cases then under treatment, kissed Mrs. Steer good night, and retired. Wife Discovers Husband’s Death, At 7:30 a. m. Sunday, as was her cus- tom, Mrs. Steer went to wake her hus- band. So natural did his posture and expression seem that she did not sus- pect anything was wrong unti! he failed to respond to her call or even to the touch of her hand. Then she thought he was ill. “Come quick,” she-shouted to Dr. Geitz. “Something is the matter with Dr. Steer.”’ Dr, Geitz saw that Dr. Steer had been dead several hours. He called in Dr. ‘John Salter of 3624 Washington avenue and both Dr. Geitz and Dr. Salter agreed that death was due to natural causes. This hasty conclusion was dispelled a moment later when the note left by the suicide was found. Probably Took Chioroform First. A bottle that had contained chloroform was found in the room. It is believed that Dr. Steer drank some of that drug before taking the prussic acid. His ob- ject in this would have been to keep his face unruffied and tranquil. Prussic acid causes a sharp spasin which distorts the face, but, when the chioroform precedes it, the pain is deadened and the countenance is calm and u diaturbed, as in sound sleep. An ing >was begun Monday morn- “ing, with MTB. Steer, Dr. Geits and the family servants as the witnesses. _ Dr, Steer was a Catholic. The funeral held at 9:30 a. m.

It is believed that Dr. Steer contem- plated suicide for some time, although he never intimated such a thing to anyone. The envelope containing the note was soiled, bearing indications that it had been carried in the doctor’s Pocket some time. The note was as fol- lows: No one is responsible for this act except myself. I have been a patient sufferer with intense pains in my chest since 1895, and it is now unbear- able. I think I have aneurism of the aorta, but the physicians who have examined me did not agree with me. Funeral and interment private. No. flowers. Ailment Was Imaginary. Dr. Geitz told a Post-Dispatch report- er that physicians who had examined Dr. Steer for the supposed heart ailment could find nothing wrong. “It was the general opinion,” said Dr. Geitz, ‘‘that the doctor’s ailments were imaginary. He also believed he was suffering from cancer, as a postscript in his note indicates.’ Before retiring Saturday night Dr. Steer was apparently. in the best of see spirits. Saturday he posted his books. At 10:30 p. m. he spoke to Dr. Geitz about his cases and then, after kissing Mrs. Steer good-night, went to his bed- room. YOUNG WOMAN Special to the Post-Dispatch.

KANSAS CITY, Mo., June 21.—Aiarm- ing reports concerning the condition of his father, Maj. J. H- Hadley of De Soto, Kan., yesterday led to Gov. Had- ley’s making a trip from. Jefferson City to his parent’s bedside in a special train and Dy motor car. The train broke all previous speed records over that line of the Missouri Pacific track, and cost the Governor $250. The Governor alighted at the depot at First street and Grand avenue. at 2:08 o'clock. He left Jefferson City at 10:30 o’clock. G. M. Smith, president of the Central National Bank, met the train and drove with the Governor in a motor car to De Soto. Near De Soto the punctur- ing of a tire caused the party a ehort delay. Gov. Hadiey reached his father’s home about 4:30 o'clock. ‘The Governor’s special .nade a record run from Jefferson City to Kansas City. While the train did not break the record of the Missouri Pacific of 50 miles an hour, it was the fastest run made over this particular stretch of track. Maj. Hadley was in a critical condition last night. S SHOT BY NEGRO BURGLAR GREENWICH, ill, June. 21.—Miss F.

He was 58 years of age, and leaves a wife. The funeral will take place tomorrow, under the au- Pb cn > of the Masonic Lodge. and Fricnds Are Shocked, Dr. Enno Sander, the dead physician's most intimate friend, took dinner at the Steer home Saturday evening. Dr. Sander was shocked when he learned of his friend’s death. He was waiting in his room at the Washington Hotel Sunday morning for Dr. Steer to call for him in his buggy when notified that the latter was dead. “TI used to accompany him twice a week in his buggy to visit his patients,”’ said Dr. Sander. ‘‘He never informed me that anything was wrong with him nor intimated that he wished to die. He seemed cheerful Saturday night.”’ Dr. Steer was born in St. Louls in 1849. He was a specialist in heart and lung diseases, and numbered among his patients many of St. Louis’ aristocracy. Besides his widow he is gurvived by a brother, F. A. Steer, a haberdasher, who lives at 4866 Lindell boulevard. Special Prices on Domes Gas, electric and combination fixtures.

— THE COMPTON AVENUE CROSSING. Two points not to be lost sight of are that a aduct at Compton avenue is a necessity and the city can compel the railroads to built it. '| Compton avenue is one of the most important Streets connecting North and South St. Louis. Thirteen railroad tracks cross it at grade. Dur- fing many hours of the day it is all but closed te traffic. It is the most important thoroughfare in the mfle of distance between Jefferson and Grand avermues. “The Supreme Court of the United States was the last tribunal to decide that a municipality can compel] a. railroad to remove grade crossings and construct/\bridges over them not only without compensation from the city but even if the city had contracted. to pay a part of the cost, con- tracts of such a xind being void. In other words the safety: and convenience of the people is the dary. t is recourse to \obstructive tactics that the Terminal Association wishes to make this grade _ geparation a dependent part of a general scheme of separating grades, including the vacating of ge some 17 acres'of streets, which has nothing to slo With the case. -% The Council should take up and settle the Jompton avenue crossing case on its individual herits.

Earle, who forced the monopoly to its knees and extracted a $2,000,000 penalty for wrecking a rival sugar company by trust methods. Although Mr. Bonaparte did not see fit to pay any attention to this evidence, which was offered to him when Attorney-General, it is said to be abundant for his successor, and there is every in- dication of a sincere purpose on the part of the administration to bring this swindling trust to book. But a prosecution which ends with a fine, how- ever large, will not effect the object. Fines when assessed against.a monopoly so compre- Mhensive as the Sugar Trust are diffused, like taxes, among the consumers who do the paying in the prices exacted for the monopolized article. Nothing short of real punishement will suffice. The “men higher up” should be pursued and made to answer for their crimes. Mr. Untermey- er, the New York lawyer, said in a recent public statement that the Government could send trust “magnates” to the penitentiary if the responsible Government officers really desired to do so. And probably no man in the country is better in- formed than Untermeyer. The Government has already unearthed a scheme whereby the cus- toms have been swindled out of millions by this same Sugar Trust, and fines aggregating $2,000,000 have been paid. A few weighers drawing $60 or $75 a month are indicted for these swindles, but there is probably evidence enough that they were directed from above. And in the Harle case now preparing, it is inconceivable that if the corpora- tiom is proved guilty some of its directors and officers cannot be reached by the lash of the law. Monopoly prosecutions are a waste of time and money unless the guilty men are punished with a@ penalty that carries infamy with it. The coun- try is getting tired of the prosecution of corpora- tions. What is wanted is a few of the real crim- inals in stripes. Then the law will be respected. -_, « _- “—_- - = If the revision upward is not satisfactory the country may be reassured.

In no other way can his vote for a high duty on print paper and wood pulp be explained. He voted with the Republicans against the amendment making both free. He voted with the Republicans for the rates which were an advance over those in the Payne bill. We have grown accustomed to seeing our Sen- ators place the industrial interests of their States above their party platforms. Louisiana Senators were for protected sugar before they were for Democratic principles. The lumber schedule found Democrats preferring protected lumber to party pledges and protected iron ore was more important than an unshattered plat- form to 17 Democrats. In these things the Senators, deserting party, feared no consequences, because of the presump- tion that their constituents were with them. But Texas is not interested in print paper and the South is not interested in wood pulp. Protection for these articles was demanded by Maine and it has been New England Senators who fought for it. But Bailey not only fought with them but sneered at the Denver platform. He must have voted for protection in this case for the love of protection. He has fallen under the sway of Aldrich. The Rhode Island missionary has not been laboring with the heathen in vain. Always able to play on the sensitive feelings of enough Democrats to offset Republican desertions on a particular schedule, he has now shown his powcr in its fullness by a complete conversion. We shudder to think what would happen if Aldrich determined to exert himself and turn the full force of his converting influence toward the Democrats. We hope Aldrich won’t try. He should be content that Bailey worships at the shrine. He should be generous enough to leaves Texas one Senator. New York, the most populous State, gets along with one. Texas, the biggest State, should do as well. a a

Perhaps the American girls and women who were foolish enough to write the 2000 love letters found in a Chinese den in New York are aware of their folly, now that the tragedy of Elsie Sigel has shocked the country. But as girls mature and become religious, they are likely to be in- terested in mission work, and the lure of the young Chinaman in American cities may appeal to them perilously. The peculiar danger to young white women ‘in this lies in the Chinaman’s character, traditions, and unnatural situation in America. According to his revered sage, Confucius, woman is man’s inferior. “Man,” says Confucius, “is the repre- sentative of Heaven; woman must yield obedi- ence to the institutions of man.” And in China, from time immemorial, the wife has been little more than a slave. Chinese who respect themselves object to women as teachers. Not long ago a St. Louis Sunday school class of Chinamen insisted that women could not teach, and in order that the mission might not be broken up, men had to be substituted. The Chinaman who consents to be taught by white girls and women in the Sunday school probably does so from a doubtful motive. The wreck of a highly respected St. Louis family through ignorance of this peculiarity in the Chinese character is still fresh in the memory. The Chinaman in America is usually unaccom- panied by his female relatives, and is therefore in unnatural environment. The American girl who befriends him makes herself common in his eyes. He does not respect her. She puts herself in a position of exceeding peril. _—_— = " = +. ‘Opponents of the Free Bridge may now retire to their caves and put their I-told-you-sos on

“= LETTERS FROM TEE PEOPLE. baal To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. Having seen many suggestions and answers in your valuable paper, I wish someone could let me know why there isn’t an exclamation point on the type- writers? Is it because it is not much used? As it is now, we have to write a period and single quote mark to make an exclamation point. Perhaps it may be because the keyboard fs already filled up enough without it, but on some typewriters there is \%, % and so on. What is the reason this necessary punc- tuation mark is left out? L. M. Origin of the Slum Gang. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. In your Sunday’s paper I saw about the gang wid- ows of St. Louis. You don’t know how my heart goes out to them, for St. Louis is my old home and it pains me much to hear any wrong of the old place. I wish to say a few words about the gang question. First, one must stop and think what can become of little children who have homes not fit for dogs—fathers that drink and stay away from home half of the time, and where poor mothers are forced to let the children stay at home alone and to run the streets while she, poor soul, must earn bread? Can any good come of this? No, never! What makes the slums of-St. Louis and every other city? A lot of poor little, helpless children and a drunk- ard for a father. A father like this makes hig chil- dren, as soon as they can pdss for 14, go to work; he does not care where, but he wants them to earn their own living. This child will tire of the hard work when put at it so young and goon it falls into the so-called gang. This is a great idea, until some- one falls into trouble and the gang will stick, and to revenge he will not stop at murder ‘or his pal. Hard- ship is what makes gangs. I say away with the drunkard; then you are rid of the gangs. Hannibal, Mo. A FRIEND OF 8T. LOUIS. Trial by Jury. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. Two articles in your paper of the 18th attracted my attention. Twelve Jefferson County jurors were lccked in seven days because they did not render a decision as the Presiding Judge ordered them to do. Also Judge Sale of the Circuit Court, this city, set aside a jury verdict, calling the jury generous. Of what use is a trial by jury if the presiding Judge can set ths verdict aside at his own sweet will and pleasure? Is this what our forefrthers fought and bled for? Is this a Government of the people, for the people and by the peeple? WM. HENRY. The People Pay for It. To the Editor. of the Post-Disvatch. The prodigal waste of wealth, the useless extrav- agance and the absolute idleness and indecency brought before the public by the Howard Gould di- vorce suit shows conclusively the injustice of an economic system that will allow se much wealth to be collected by any One individual or family, when, with a large majority of people, it is one continual struggle to keep up a respectable appearance and secure the conveniences that common decency de- mands. Just think of the thousands of tolilers slav- ing on the Gould lines long hours every day and most of them for a paltry stipend—just living wages. These are the ones that are patiently paying for this abuse of wealth. And yet the railroads are con- stantly crying about not making any money, due to the hostile legislation, etc. If they are not making money, will some kind person tell me where all the money that the wealthy railroaq families possess comes from? CONSTANT READER. Terminal Railroad’s Offer. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. I see by this evening’s issue of the Post-Dispatch that the Terminal Raltlroad Association proposes to puild viaducts across the railroad tracks at Theresa and Ewing Avenues, and vacate Compton dvenue. Now, I will say that there is not an ‘“‘obstructionist”’ in this entire, district; but that every taxpayer in this Mill Creek Valley will object to the vacating of any street across the railroads. What we need here is bridges, not closed streets. It would be Ht- tle enough for the Termrnal Railroad Association to build three bridges across the railroads in exchange for the 17 acres Of street they want. These bridges are now an absolute necessity and their construction should not be deferred. We believe that a bridge should be built across the railroads at Theresa and Compton avenue, and from Ewing to California ave- nue, which would make them all thoroughfares. J. W. SOUTHWORTH. Taught by Experience. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. Reading an article in last evening’s paper in re- gard to divorce cases, must say that I, fer one, be- lieve in them to a certain extent; for instance, there is many a couple that is mismatched and only lead a miserable and wretched existence by liv- ing together and I think it a far greater sin to lead a life of that kind that to get a divorce. I up- hold it in that respect. ONE WHO HAS BEEN THERE. Old Age Pensions. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. Your idea for oki age pensions is all right, except that it leaves out the very old people, who most need pensions—those who are not working for big com- penies, but for themselves on little or no capital, or for small concerns that could not afford to pension them. You say the plan of the Boston & Maine Rall- tions; but we can't all be employes of such corpora- tions. A few big concerns which are not public service corporations have been able, through their wealth and standing, to put in force a pension sys tem, but all such systems leave out the very poor man—the real laboring man. What must he think ot pension systems merely adapted to those who are on salary? No pension system will be adequate to the need that does not take in every worker, no mat- ter how low in the industrial order. w. The “One House” Assembly. . To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch.

THE SECRET REVEALED. From the New York World. The secret of the Roosevelt Admini- stration’s attitude .toward the Sugar Trust is fully revealed in an article from the pen of the Hon. Bwan Tumbo himself, printed in the current issue of the Outloox: There must be a law to control the big men, and therefore especially the big cor- porations, in the industrial world, in the in- terest of our industrial democracy of today. The law must be efficient, and therefore it must be administered by executive officers and not by lawsuits in the courts. This explains everything. In order to proceed against the trust for its wanton violation of the Sherman law it was necessary to have a law suit “In the courts.”” The trust would have had to be tried like auy other offender. Punishment could not be administered offhand ‘“‘by exeoutive officers.”’ Ob- viously the only thing to do was to ignore Mr. Earle’s evidence and give the trust immunity; otherwise the Roosevelt Administration would have placed itself in the deplorable position of countenancing due process of the law under the Constitution.

COMPARATIVE MONEY. From the New York Times. A fairly good workman, in good times, in this country, can earn for 10 hours of labor about as much as the gentleman whose wife is suing him for abandon- ment draws from the income of his in- heritance from his father every minute of the 24 hours, sleeping or waking. This calculation is not suited to abate the demand for heavy succession taxes, or a tax on income. It must, however, be remembered that the wage of the laborer is probably twice the daily in- come of this gentleman’s father when he first peddied tinware in the country districts of New York. THE PEDAGOGIC TREND. From the Cleveland Plain Dealer. The boy looked up at his teacher. “Can't you suggest some new title for my oration, sir?’’ he asked. “All the old ones have been done to death.’’ The teacher looked thoughtful. ‘Let me see,’”” he mused. ‘Suppose you use ‘The Thrend of Modern Taught.’ I mean “The Tend of Modern Throt.’ That is, "The Thend of Modern Traught.’ Oh, go find your own subject, Joseph.”

UP-TO-DATE DRAMA, From the Washington Star. “That new playwright, Mr. Muckles, says he has an idea for a piece that is sure to be one of the sensational suc- cesses of ths “Great White Way,” - the New York Manager. “pid he outline the plot to you?” “No. He couldn’t. There were ladies present.”’

NEGLECTED TO ADVERTISE. From the Chicago Record-Herald. This certainiy is a big and busy country. The largest industrial expo- sition on record was recently opened at Cleveland, and it was only by acci- dent that it was heard of outside of Ohio.

SURE. From the Chicago Tribune. Professor (of political economy)— “What do you understand by the term ‘ultimate consumer” ” Preternaturally Solemn Student—‘The garbage crematory, is it not?’ HIDING THE CORPSE. ’ From the Indianapolis News.

HE HAD OBSERVED. The judge had just granted the decree of divorce. “tT have observed,” he said, “that there are two kinds of weddings—those brought about by the principals them- selves, and those which are the work of ‘matchmakers. You people have not intimated in your testimony that yours was a wedding of the latter class, but my judgment assures me that it was. Back of it was a woman who had more to do with it than either of you had. Is it not so?” The divorcee blushed furiously and af- firmatively. “T knew it,” said the judge. “That is why I granted the decree. Whom match-

makers bring together we usually find it well to put asunder. Mr. Sheriff, the court is adjourned until 9 tomorrow.” Wag (at restaurant): Walter, is this asparagus the same at both ends? Waiter (also something of a wit): I'm afraid so, sir. Patient: I don’t believe I could give up cucumbers, doctor. Doctor: All right, your folly is on your own stomach. en Like all inventors, the Wrights are getting medals, when what they want is money.

Not Know | This Is About the Girl You Are Going to Marry, and It Will

Stagger You! Written for the Post-Dispatch By~ EDITH SESSIONS TUPPER. HEN you meet at a house party, W a Summer hotel, or some town function a sweet thing with eyes like stars and lips like cherries and teeih like pearls—the regulation type you know—and fall desperately in love, you can scarcely wait until you call her yours. You don’t know that you are marry- ing a beautiful mask, do you? And when that mask drops and you see the selfish nature and the cold heart or-the utter lack of responsibility or in- tellect, as the case may be, you feel you have been cheated. You don’t know that if you had been content to have waited a little longer and looked over the prize you had drawn more carefully you might have Getected the flaws in your jewel. You don’t know that, as a rule, a pretty woman hasn't an ounce of com- mon sense. She|is only a_ beautiful ninny. She does not know anything and she does not care to know anything. She is satisfied to admire her own lovely self and has no interest in life save that which centers in her charming per- son, You don’t know that if you want peace, harmony and quiet you should marry—not a hideous woman—but a plain, sensible girl, rather than a dainty doll. You don't know that a pretty, brain- less woman goes about bragging to her women friends of your devotion to her, do you? You should have heard the chatter of a beautiful creature who came to see the writer not long since. She rattled on in a sweet drawl of various things dear to woman's heart—servants, chil- dren, spring hats, the new lace frock that had just come home and at last

struck the subject of her husband's love for her. “Love me!” she said, rolling her eyes up as if to call on heaven to witness and confirm her announcement. “You can't imagine how he loves me! You never, my dear, saw a man s0 crazy over 4a woman as he is over me. It’s really pa- thetic!" I told her that was perfectly lovely and the way it ought to be and that it was a pity there were no more men crazy over their beautiful wives, and expressed every other noble sentiment I could think of as appropriate to so truly touching an occesion. All the time, however, I had a sneak- ing desire to grin. For, as a rule, when a woman brags to me of the intensity of her husband’s devotion, I at once jump to the conclusion that she bores him almost to death. You may think you can teach such a woman. But you don’t know what you are up against. The fact that she has not an atom of mind never troubles her; that she is utterly incapacitated éither for great joy or great suffer- ing does not bother her. All she cares about is the luxury of finery and soft telongings. She is like a cat—per- fectly satisfied with a warm corner, a silk cushion, a ribbon around the neck and a little stroking and petting now and then. , You think you can be happy with a cat woman, but you don't know how wretched you will come to be; how weary you will grow of her vaporings, her idle chatter, her silly conceit, You don’t know how you will come to long for the companionship of a sensible woman: how you will come to look upon the society of a brainy woman, however ugly. as a positive relief.

DIARY OF A NEGLECTED BABY

A Discussion of Fathers From the Infant Viewpoint, Recorded for the Post-Dispatch

By BARBARA BLAIR. THURSDAY, 8 A M. | HE infant next door was telling T me today about the pleasant time she has with her father. \ She says that he dandles her on his knee, tosses her in the air and allows her to pull his hair, bang his ears and swing on his nose. She says that he is the most useful punching bag and mus- cle developer that she has been able to discover. How attractive this sounds! How de- lightful such companionship must be! She tells me, too, that quite often in the early morning, about 2 or 3 o'clock, she and her father take a long walk. She says she always embraces this opportunity to tell her father all her troubles, and that he listens very pa- tlently. She complains, however, that they have very unpleasant neighbors who frequently interrupt the conversa- tion- with her father by putting their heads out of windows and shouting such rude and insutling remarks as: ,’Can’t you keep that child quiet?” “We would like to get SOME sleep up here.” “Y love your wife, but, oh, that kid!’ _ he says this always irritates her so that she talks louder and faster than ever, until her father begins patting her soft!y on the back and telling her nice stories in a soft, deep, soothing voice, and then she says she snuggles up close to him and drops off to sleep. What a fortunate baby she is. And . what a lonely little baby Iam. Nobody loves me and there isn’t anybody’s hair I can pull. My mother is always at re- ceptions and teas, and my father lives in Wall street. Sometimes my father comes in to see me. When he comes ifn he says: “Ig the child well, nurse?’ Then he holds out one finger politely to me, while he gazes with a worried frown on his face over my head. | Gatch the finger in all of mine and hold it tight. Oh, how I cling and cling

with all the strength I have! I coe and = gurgle and show all my dimples. And ence I punched my father playfully In the ribs and gave him a tiny wink. I wanted him to know what a little sport I was, and that he would really enjoy the time he spent with me. But my fa- ther only said, absently: “Ah, the child seems very well, nurse; very well in- deed!’’ and left me. ou see, my father is so busy making money for’ me te spend when I grow up that he hasn’t any time to love me now. I am afraid when he has made the money and looks areund for me that I won't be here then. When he wants them, there won’t be any baby fingers to cling. THURSDAY, 8 P. M. Y father passed me on the street today, while I was in my car- riage. He stopped and looked at me as sO many people do, but without any sign of recognition on his face. How madly I bit my rattle! Would he know me? Would no thrill of pa- ternal pride tell him whe I was? Sure- ly, surely he would know. I am told I have my father’s nose. Now, as he bent over me, I wriggled it eagerly. It is a& cunning little way I have. I heard a woman say once, “Oh, watch it wriggle its dear little nese! Isn’t it cute?’ I have practiced it frequently sine then. So now as my father’s ee searched my face, I wriggled my nose anxiously and smiled up at him. He smiled back and poked his finger under my chin. :Usually I resent such a liberty frem a stranger, but, oh, how happy it made me when my father did it. I kicked my covering off and held up my new shoes for him to admire. My dress is inconveniently long, but I have learned to manage it very gracefully. A well directed kick soon aisposes of it. My father laughed. “Ah! Quite a jolly little kid. yours, young woman?’ “No, siv,”” said the young woman, re- spectfully, ‘it is yours, sir.” Is it

MYSTERIES [ of HISTORY

Retold

The Mystery of President Faure. (é RANCOIS FELIX FAURE, Pres- — tdent of France, died at the Elysee Palace tonight at 10:15 from an apoplectic stroke.’’ So ran a dispatch, dated ‘Paris, Feb. 16, 1899,"" and published next morning throughout the civilized world. On the face of it, there seemed scant mystery in the announcement. Faure was over fifty. For some time he had not been in perfect health. The tumult about the Dreyfus trial that had shaken France had undoubtedly told on the President's nerves. So the world at large accepted the statement. If many Parisians, journalists and Government officials thought they knew better, their threat of revolution that swept their country. Faure’s death seemed to some malcontents an ideal chance for an overthrow of the Republic and a res- toration of the old monarchy or emptre. The expected revolution proved a mere fizzle. But by the time France settled down once more to its daily routine, other happenings had dimmed the earli- er excitement over the President’s death. Then—at first in veiled hint and later in more bold, circumstantial fashion— arose rumors that Faure had not died a natural death. Some reports strove to weave a scandal about his fate; oth- ers talked openly of assassination. In 19088 the rumors biazed forth into new and greater publicity on account of the Steinheil case. In May of last year the beautiful wife of Arthur Steinhelil, an artist, was found gagged and strapped te a bed- post in her room. In the same house the murdered and bsund bodies of her Odieow Post-Dispatch By’ ALBERT PAYSON TERHUNE. voices were deafened for a time by a}

bodemeicn-: and her stepmother were dis- covered. “Mme. Steinheil told the po- lice a dramatic tale of several masked and gowned figures that had entered the house by night, killed the two other members of the family, tied and gagged her and stolen everything they could find. There were odd features about the case; yet fer six months Mme. Steinheil remained an object of public pity. Meantime, she seemed to be bent on hunting dewn the murderers. Then she was arrested, charged with the double crime. At once there sprang fnto print in more than one French newspaper in- sinuations that she was a sort of Gov- ernment spy; that the police had re- frained for half a year from arresting her on account of official influence; that her wiles upon the visiting King colored potentate to sign a treaty highly advantageous to France. But the most remarkable press ac- cusation was that President Faure had been stricken, not at the Elysee, but at Mme. Steinheil’s house; and—it was more than strongly hinted—that he met death through _potson admin{stered through her agency. Stories were print- ed here and there that the dying Presi- dent had been carried secretly by the police from the Steinheil home to the Elysee, a dubious coroner satisfied, and hasty preparations made for burial, in order to conceal traces of poison. Nor was an alleged motive lacking. This supposed motive had even earlier been voiced by the famous Henri Rochefort when he angrily called to notice in La Patrie that Faure had died mysterious- ly ‘fon the day on which the decree for the revision of the Dreyfus affair was

Steinheil was the agent of the conspirators. It was well known that other and open attempts had been made at various times to assassinate Faure. Another Paris newspaper, L’Autorite, declared that Faure had had warnings that his heart was weak, and that he chose to commit suicide rather than to continue in fear of blackmallers, etc. Other papers claimed that the Steinheil trial was postponed until. Feb. 16 of this year in order that the 10-year statute of limitations might then pre- vent inquiry into the mode of Faure’s death. Grewsome details, that need not be touched on here, were plentifully given toward substantiating each of .he vari- ous accounts of the tragedy. The gen- eral impression still, in many circles, is that Faure did not die a natural death and that the official reports giv- en out concerning the affair were un- true. But whether the President of the French Republic was lured to the Steinheil house: and was there mur- dered, or killed himself because of po- litical or other troubles, or whether in truth his death was natural—none of these theories may ever be satisfac- torily proven.

the Tigers victory in both games. They played the hit-and-run game when they were three runs behind. The result was that the tight defense of the Brewns snapped. Ty Cobb’s daring on the bases started most of the confusion. He made them throw the ball, and on two occa- sions it got past Hobe Ferris at third base and let Cobb score when he might have been oaught with accurate field- ing. Rube Waddell pitched the first game, but was not up to his usual speed. Aft- er seven innings he gave his place to Criss at the bat and then Bill Bailey twirled the final two frames. George Mullin, the premier pitcher of the season, was on the slab for Detroit, pitching his thirteenth game of the year. He had won ll and lost one, and the 18 number proved lucky to him, for he was given a: victory that ne did not de- serve. Summers pitched the second game through the seventh inning, and gave his place at bat to Davy Jones, who started that terrific elghth inning rally. Suggs then finished the game.

That ed all the games to the end of t is the only one

for seven innings in the second game. Only one of the Detroit players got as far as second base. Jack was working hard and had a lot of speed and that was the secret of his success. Out of 23 men that faced him in, the seven innings, only nine of them hit the ball on the ground. All the others either fanned or popped up in the air. In the eighth inning, however, the Tigers be- gan meeting the ball squarely and punching it to safe ground. That would indicate that Jack’s speed had slack- ened, and unless he has his top speed with him, he’s one of the easiest pitch- ers in the business to hit, for he puts the ball in the groove. Had he been taken out as s00n as the first two men had singled, and a fresh pitcher put in, possibly Graham or Howell, that rally might have been stopped right there and the game saved. Ty Cobb’s home run was the first one he has made this year. It was a beauty line drive to center and just a bit to right. Hoffman, in his crippled condi- tion, never attempted to go after the ball, and Hartzell raced clear from right field far it. Cobb walked in from third base. Failure on the part of the Browns to back up throws to third base in the first game, gave Detroit two of its six runs. Twice with Cobb tearing for thira base, Ferris let the ball get away and both times Cobb came home.

CARDINALS ‘IN CLEAN SWEEP OVER BOSTONS Roger’s Boys Take FinalGame and Are Now Ready for Mighty Pittsburg Pirates. The Cardinals made it four straight from the lowly Boston club by taking the final game Sunday afternoon in most impressive style, the score being 8 to 3. Boston never had a chance to win and semed to know it all the time, so played to get through and catch the train back home, rather than play to win the game. Timely hitting and some of the most daring oase running ever attempted was what made the victory so easy for Bresnahan’s boys. They pounded the curves of Mr. Ferguson to all parts of the big field and then ran the bases in such a manner that the poor Boston fielders were up in the air all of the time. Every man on the Cardinal team hit the ball except Eddie Phelps. Some of them hit it safely twice, and Evans hit it to safe ground three times. Fif- teen hits, all told, were made. Six of them were doubles and one of them a triple, the latter being made by wee Bobby Byrne. Johnny .Lush did the pitching for the Cardinals and was never in trouble. For that reason he did not have to exert himself and he permitted eight hits. He seemed to be in such form, however. that he could have shut the team out had it been necessary. Acting Manager Bill Dahlen was not in the game and his place at short was | filled by. Starr, while Ritchey went to second base... Dahlen seemed so dis- gusted with the playing of his charges in the first three games that he did not care to associate with them in the last. The four victories by the Cardinals has given them quite a firm hold on sixth place in the National League race and Monday being an open date the boys will be given a rest to be in the best possible condition to attack the Pittsburg Pirates, who start a series of five games at League Park on Tues- day. Bresnahan hardly hopes to dislodge the Pirates from their lofty top posi- tion, but he is determined to win two of the games. Pittsburg has been going nicely all spring and is due for a break. EAXLEBEN AGAIN LOSES TO INDIAN AT DENVER Joe Forshaw, the local long distance runner, has received word from Joe Erxleben, another M. A. C. distance star, who is in Denver, Colo., that Saul Halyve, an Indian, won the Marathon race over the regulation course on a mile track at that city, Sunday, Erxleben finishing second.

T IS true we feel terribly over the | loss of that double-header. But we would hardly trade our feelings for those of Hedges or McAleer. A sound plow horse can beat a crip- pled thoroughbred. Evidently Mr. Mc- Aleer didn’t appreciate the fact when he let the limping Stone go into the first game Sunday and kept McAleese on the coaching line. It cost the game. Whoever bet that any club which can score over four runs per game can beat the Browns all season, was chea‘- ing. He had inside information. Being now safely on the American League ground floor McAleer and Mi. Hedges will set about repairing the elevator. Never mind, Robért, we still have our grandstand against the day when we get @ pennant winner. That will stand up, even if this season’s club can’t. Three smashed boats—all that enter- ed the Lemp cup race on the river, Sunday—furnish a sufficient ground for remonstrance against shell racing on the Mississippi. The Father of Waters ig very moody, subject to changes of temper and current and is loaded with drift wood, visible and submerged. Aside from the dangers incident to rac- ing on the turbid stream, the many uncertainties that confront crews make it impossible that the best manned boat will win. The race of Sunday will not make the Southwestern Rowing Association feel any too happy over its choice of the Mississippi as the scene of its annual regatta. Creve Coeur Lake is the only proper place in this vicinity for light shell contests, and Mr. Schaab and corapany ought to know it. In your ear—they do know it, but the railroad company is inclined to bs stingy, this year. VI in the city golf championship ought to induce him to enter the Western tournament this season.

formance, but he would have lost to his brother surely, had he been in the tour- nament this year.

The official Western handicaps rate Arthur Stickney at 3. Perhaps some of the Chicago gentlemen would like to try it on at that figure. ‘ Bogey, for the Country Club, is 76, and Stickney was under it every time in such matches as he finished out last week. He qualified in 75, duplicated this figure once, made a 73 and in the morning round of his final match made a 72. He beat former Champion Ralph McKit- trick, 9 up and 7 to go. Whoever does that is surely playing. Since Willie Anderson has been at the Country Club he has done 70 but twice. Anderson has been four times oaational open champion, and is Western open champion at present. The great misfortune of St. Louis golf- ers is the few chances they have to get tournament experience at home. Chi- cago is a busy place throughout the summer. Outside of the city and State championships here, there are no events oper to all local clubs. The mere closed contests for local organizations beget lit- tle competition, as one or,two men in each club are certain of having the con- test clinched. Battling Nelson demands $5000 to whip the winaer of the Trendall-Knight fight at Kansas City. That’s extortion—it’s only a $500 job.

Throughout the double- header of Sunday, while the Browns were rolling up the masnificent total of 12 errors, the crowd could be heard addressing the management saying: ‘“‘Long may he waive!’’ RIPPLE—We know of no attempt Roger expressed sorrow Sunday at seeing the Bostons go. The wreck.ng of *the local elght-oared shells in the attempt to hold the river race Sunday promises to cost the Mound City Club the cup, unless its boat can be patched up. Besides the three shat- tered racers there are only two other eights in the harbor, an extra one owned by the Westerns and a new one, the property of the Country Club. Queer if the Mound Citys should be frozen out in the row-off, losing the cup. which they still hold and which they could

undoubtedly win easily again, if com- peting. ELLE LLL LLL LLL LLL LLL LLL 7 - ARVARD COACH TO TAKE CHARGE OF LOCAL CREW Mound City’s Offer to Wray, It Is Announced, Has Been Accepted. RED TOP, Conn., June 21.—James Wray, coach of the Harvard Unjversity rowing crews, has accepted an offer made him by the Mound City Rowing Club of St. Louis to coach its oarsmen, and will depart for St. Louis immedi- ately after the annual Harvard-Yale race. Wray will be in charge of the Mound City crews during the months of July and August. The Mound City Rowing Club has been negotiating with Wray for some time. A few days ago it was stated that it was practically certain that Wray would come to St. Louis, as the club had met his demands as to salary and other particulars, and was merely waiting to hear whether or not every- thing was satisfactory. The Western Rowing Club has a pro- fessional coach, Plaisted. The Mound! City oarsmen wanted the best man they could get. Dwight Evans, one of the Mound City Rowing Club oarsmen, is a former Harvard star, and the fact that he has shown the Mound City men many tricks about the rowing game that they did not know, convinced them that the professional coach of Harvard should be able to hel» them greatly. The local rowing season opened Sun- day, but the most important event is the annual regatta of the Southwestern Amateur Rowing Association, to be held the latter part of July, on the Missis- sippi River.

Koentg expects by next Wednesday to have an elght-cylinder 225-horse power engine installed in his new 40-fcot speed boat, Independ- ence II, which was formally launched, Sunday afternoon, from barge of the St. Louls Power Boat Association, foot of North Market satreet. Three engine experts started the work of placing the engine in the boat Monday morning. Miss Florence Koenig, a McKinley High School pu- pil, wko is acousin of the owner, formally broke a bottle of champagne over the bow of the boat as it was allowed to slide into the water Sun- day afternoon, and Dr. Phillips, com- modore of the St,/Louls Power Boat Association, made a short address, after which the boat was towed to South St. Louts.

’ NEW YORK, June 21. ELT will be James R. Keene's (3 color bearer in the Suburban on Thursday. It was decided at & conference between owner and trainer to send the son of Commando for the race and reserve Hilarious for the 3- year-old Tidal Stakes. Unless some ac- cident should happen to Celt between now and Thursday, he will be Mr. Keene’s sole representative in the big event. Present indications are that the Sub- urban will have much the same aspect to racegoers as did the Brooklyn Han- dicap—a duel between thoroughbreds owned by Keene and S. C. Hildreth. With Hilarious out of the way and Celt practically an unknown quantity, for he ran far below high-class ferm in the Gravesend classic, the Hildreth en- try—Restigouche and Fitzherbert, is fa- vorite. Restigouche never was better in his life than he is just now, and Fitz- herbert has the advantage of youth, speed and stamina in his favor. On the other hand, Celt has but the prestige of his last season's victories—something very nice for a stallion about to retire, but of no advantage when competing in a race. There is no question in the minds of horsemen who watched Celt race at Gravesend that he sulked. It was ap- parent from the start that he would not win. His stride was short and choppy, not free and bold as it was in the days of the year before. If he shows his old form, the race is at his mercy, for at hig best the handsome son of Commando is as far above Resti- gouche and Fitzherbert in quality as the tower of the Singer Building is above the spire of Trinity Church. Must Be at Best. But Celt will have to be at his best to win. His physical condition must be perfect and his temper as placid as a summer gea. He cannot afford to be otherwise, for he will find his chief PPpponents relentless in their lust for Conquest. After the race for the Brook- lyn Handicap, the “I told you s0” brigade were ready to place the blame of Celt’s defeat at the door of imperfect Condition. But no trainer who has seen James Rowe land home winner after winner for many years could be in- duced to concede that lack of training prevented Celt from winning. Rowe un- derstands his bysiness too well to send a horse to the post of an important race like the Brooklyn, where speed of a heart- breaking order is a necessity from the Start.to the finish, without having that horse wound up to concert pitch. Celt was beaten, but through no fault of Rowe’s. And the racing pub- lic may feel assured that if Celt goes to the post in Thursday's valuable race, that he will be as fit as a master in training can make him. The addi- tional time which he had since Brook- lyn day will ?

“ ‘oer ; Sth rs ? ‘ > e A 4 hg rs Sulky Celt, Keene’s Once Great Colt, Will Start in Rich Suburban Stake fray, so far as his bodily condition is concerned, in perfect trim. It would be an unkind blow on the part Dame Fortune if Restigouche were to win. This black horse was sent adrift from Mr. Keene's: stable as being unworthy to occupy a stall in the same barn with Celt. Since that day Resti- gouche has shown marked improve- ment. The balmy climate of California with its rich grasses served as a tonic and bullt him up from a washy weak- ling into a robust, reliable racer. It’s Hildreth’s Chance, In Restigouche and Fitzherbert Hil- dreth has decidedly—on paper at least— the better of the hand to carry off the money. Fitzherbert’s light wejght will offset the seven-pound penalty that was assigned Restigouche because he finished second to King James and beat out Celt. Taking a line through King James’ allotment, Restigouche has all the worst of the weight. 'and needs a strong boy to hold him to-

Not more than eight or ten horses will go to the post for the Suburban. Of the probable contestants the lightly weighted class does not loom up form- idably with the heavyweights. Alfred Noble has® only 99 pounds, but this is more of a detriment to him than an ad- vantage. He is a big, powerful colt gether and ride him. Besides this, his form has been of the steerage class. So far no horse carrying less than 10 pounds has ever won this big race. Pontiac carried that weight, but as he was practically unknown, he slipped past the handicapper. Later the “Gen- t'eman Black,” as he was called, picked up 12% pounds and won. So the 102 pounds was “dead easy.” : Fayette, Effendi, King’s Daughter, Fashion Plate and High Private are eligibles with records more or legs ‘at- tractive. But whatever the outcome, few would like to select any one in this list to beat Celt or Restigouche, even with a feather. up.

in Race for Lemp 3 = -

Three eight-oared shells, valued at Over $2000, were practically neduced to kindling wood and the lives of their crews imperiled in what was practically the first race for boats of this class ever held on the Mississippi River. The oarsmen from the Mound City, Western and Central Rowing clubs were tossed out into the yellow flood of the “Father of Waters” near the Eads Bridge, owing to the high waves. That nobody was drowned is due to the fact that several fast power bogts were in the vicinity of the shells at the time of the accident, and the meh were able to cling to their wrecked boats, which were sustained by their air cham- bers. In the Western crew half the men could not swim. The Westerns were the last to go down and they were swamped just north of the Eads Bridge near the east shore, when the current at that point, running like a mill race, caught the boat, swung it around like a chip in a whirlpool, and rammed the stern up against the projecting rock wall. . The oarsmen were tossed out into about 16 feet of water. Johnny Joachim and other good swimmers in the crew helped the men who could not swim to get hold of the wrecked boat. Loud calls brought the launches. The Mercury, in which were Charley Stevens, Herman Kirtman and other local men, and other craft, picked every- body up. Westerns Miss Central Span.. The race, if such it might be called, was undoubtedly one of the most ex- citing ever heli in the vicinity of St. Louls, The contest was for eight- oared shells, with the start at the foot of Spruce street, and the finish at the Mound City Rowing Club, foot of Madi- son street. The starting had been set for 3 o’clock.. A strong wind, which was blowing almost directly against the cur- rent, soon kicked up a lot of choppy waves that boded ill for the long eight- eight-oared shells which cannot ride over a wave, but must go right through them. At 5:50 p. m. Bob Thompson of the Mound City R. C. called them out to the starting line) They got away after a few minutes’ jockeying to an even start. For the first 150 vards all three crews pulled a strong, fast stroke. Grad- ually the Mound Citys pulled away a trifle. The Centrals were only a short distance behind them, while the West- erns seemed to be content to take mat- ters easy fora time. When the starting gun was fired the launch Columbia had started up the river at top speed to keep near the Central crew to give the men any aid in case of an accident. Un- wittingly, the Columbia caused the first accident. In passing the Mound Citys and Centrals the Columbia sent out a heavy wash that was caught by the wind and sent up into big rollers. The Mound -City men let out a volume of language that sounded like a troop of stage coach drivers in the old days, but insidé of a second they were all water, their shell having gone down under them, with most of the deck bro- ken off by the weight of the water and numerous minor breaks and _ strains. They all secured a hold on the boat and had just about got settled when the study of R. R.

WABASH PFD. SELLS OFF IN EARLY MARKET Break of Three Points in This Issue Causes General _ Decline. NEW YORK, June 21, 12:30 p. m. Stocks broke sharply during the final hour of the forenoon. Wabash preferred was the disturbing element in the mar- . ket, its loss from the opening amounting to 3 points. The weakness in this security was carried to the general list, with losses ranging from a fraction to 1% points. Anaconda declined %, A. C. P. %, C F. I. %, Smelting, Consolidated Gas and North American 1 point each, United States Steels 1% each and American ‘Sugar 2% points. In the rails section B. R. T., St. Paul, Erie, D. & R. G. declined 1 each; New York Central and Reading 1% each; Rock Island preferred 1%, Southern Pa- cific %, Missouri Pacific 1%, and Union Pacific 1% points. Canadian Pacific and National Lead had not opened at noon. Reading and Wabash preferred were the most active issues. The break in Wabash was ascribed to the failure of rumors of purchase by another system to materialize. The volume of trading was exceeding- ly small, the total sales to noon amouat- ing to only 169,000 shares. Although recessions were registered in sume prominent stocks at the opening of the market today, yet the tendency of prices was for higher levels. Varia- tions from Saturday's closing figures were, as a rule, limited to small frac- tions, in no instance reaching as much as 1 point. Smelting gained %, and American T, & T. %. Amalgamated lost %, Central Leather %, Consolidated Gas and Steel common \% each, and Gen- eral Electric %. Steel preferred was at parity.

BRIDAL PA Bride’s Face Powder Is Used to » Ascertain When Big Gas- bag Rises and Falls.

Special to the Post-Dispatch. PITTSFIELD, Mass., June 21. — The “honeymoon above the clouds” of Mr. and Mrs. Roger U. Burnham, who char- tered the balloon Pittsfield for an as-~ cension on their wedding night, lasted three hours and fifty minutes. The thrilling ride was begun at 12:40 a. m., Sunday, in this city, and the landing Was made on the farm of Ralph Gilkey, at Pookbrook, 14 miles from Bostun Common. The great balloon practically crossed the State. | The courage of Mr. and Mrs. Burn- ham, the former a prominent sculptor of Boston; and the latter an author, Was put to the test repeatedly. At the start an excited crowd of 5000 persons threatened to imperil: the lives of the bridal couple and their pilot, by jump- ing over the ropes into the danger zone where explosions could easily be caused by a spark. The balloon lifted itself to an elevation of 2500 feet and

eS then began its northerly drift in total darkness. Face Powder Paper Useful. All lights faded from view, and some- thing that balloon pilots dread most at night occurred—the statoscope, which indicates the rise or fall of the balloon, refused to work. Billy Van Sleet, the pilot, making his thirty-fifth ascension in one year, called for tissue paper. Mrs. Burnham had in her traveling bag a package of papier poudre, a preparation of face powder spread on thin paper, and Van Sleet used this to test the rise or fall of the balloon. The party scarcely had been up an hour when the better of the two elec- tric flash lamps became exhausted, and only the dim light of the other remain- ed for use in case of their approach to earth. At 3 o’clock the bridal couple decided to enjoy their first honeymoon break- fast. Desecnd in Orchard, Just as daylight was breaking, Van Sleet sighted a huge observatory, and then water. This was the Blue Hil! observatory, and the water was Bos- ton harbor. He lost no time descending,

The anchor held on a tree, and the balloon descend ed so lightly there was not a jar as the basket came to. earth. Mrs. Burnham insisted on helping the pilot pack the balloon for shipment, after which the party went to the Gilkey home, where the farmer enter- tained them ac breakfast. The Burnhams found that they were back to within 47 miles from Woods Hole, Cape Cod, the place where they had been married the day before. They had crossed the State to make the as- cension from Pittsfield, and recrossec in the balloon.

BALLOON ROPE ELLS. FIELDER: RUNNEH SCORES Trailing Knot Hits Baseball Player About to Catch a Fly.

LOSING TEAM FURIOUS “Your Darned Old Rope Made Us Lose,’’ Member Writes to Heimann.

M. A. Heimann, aeronaut. returned to St. Louls Monday after a thrilling balloon ascension in which he overrode a big storm and at the end of which he received a queer challenge. With Heimann in the Melba when it went up Sunday afternoon from the gas works at Secend and Rutger street was John Berry, winner of the big Indianap- olis race. They landed near Wrights, Ill., 70 miles northeast of St. Leuis. Just before they took a train to return to St. Louis a note was slipped into Hei- mann’s hand. It read: “Say, you. If you ever come back here I’m going to punch your nose. Your darned old rope broke up our ball game and made us lose.’’ “We did break up a game, but we couldn’t help it,’”’ said Heimann. ‘“‘We were sailing over a big open field near Wrights and our drag rope was trail- ing. Right below us we saw two nines playing. “A batter hit the ball to centerfield. We could see it go sailing through the air far below us. The centerfielder ran for it. Just as he was about to grab it the big knot on the enu of the rope struck him in the stomach and knocked him down. He rolled over and over and the ball rolled across the meadow. The runner scored. “We could hear the players shouting. When they looked up and ‘saw the bal- loon they forgot all about the game and tried to catch our drag-rope, but we got away from them. ; “We started northwest, but the wind changed and carried us to the north- east. A part of the time we were above the clouds in the bright sunshine while it was storming below us. We passed over the American League and the Na- tional League parks and saw Rube Waddell warming up.for the first game with Detroit. “For a time it looked as though the siorm was going to catch us. Our only chance was to get up high. When we crossed the Mississippi River we were at an altitude of 10,000 feet and the clouds below us were so thick we couldn't see the earth. “We landed on the Flowers after son-in-law had caught the _ rope. They were dragged a quarter of a mile, but they held on pluckily. “When farmers in the neighborhood learned that Berry was the winner of the Indfanapolis race they carried him on their shoulders to the Flowers home, where they gave us a big supper.” Heimann will make eight more flights to qualify as a pilot. Heimann says that Rube Waddell. baseball pitcher, vaudeville artist and prize waltzer, is anxious to ascend in the Melba. There are fans who say he has frequently gone up in the air, but net in a balloon. “I was going to take Rube up this week, but he had to go to a trap-shoot- ing tournament in Chicage,’’ said Hel- mann. GEORGE WASHINGTON, LATEST GERMAN BOAT, IS FINISHED Vessel Reaches New York From Germany and Makes 20 Knots. The latest of the North German Lloyd transatlantic steamships to be launched is the “George Washington,’”’ which reached New York Sunday. The steam- ship is named in honor of the first President of the United States, and on a& measured course, during a trial, made 20 knots an hour. The decoration of the boat is of the simple and dignified colonial type which existed during Washington’s time. The imperial suites were designed by Prof. Rudolf A. Schroeder, and are said to surpass any of their kind in existence. In addition, a third class has been established for those who do not wish to voyage in the steerage and do .not wish to pay for second-class comfort. The rooms in this class are made to accommedate two, four or six passen- gers. The Washington is equipped with the wireless and all safeguards. Its length is 722 feet 5 inches; beam, 78 feet; dis- placement, 37,000 tons; horsepower, 20,000. The Washington was built in the yards of Stettiner Vulcan at Bredow, and will enter the New York-London-Paris-Bre- men service of the North German Lloyd this month, making the first trip from New York on July 1. of J. W. and his farm Flowers
