| Was «pjoyed In an effort to save fur .iture in the Triesel home Fireman Ben Jewell was caught under blazing timbers which fell from the second floor. from head to waist. Fireman Henry Krenning stepped on a nail, which plerced his foot. The injured men and Mr. George Van Pelt whose nervous shock was made the more serious by her expectations of ma- ternity were treated by Dr. Maurice Thompson of 6236 Maple avenue. The fire started in the roof of the McDonald home, a two-story frame building. Members of the family escaped through the smoke and roused the Triese! family, next door. Neo Furnishings Saved. In a few minutes the Triesel home, also a frame building, was in flames. There Was no timé to “save any-hing from the McDonald residence, and the firemen worked to protect the homes of Henry A. Van Pelt, at 6246, and James Kennedy, 6244. There was great excitement in the neighborhood and many families car- ried their furniture into the street, be- lieving that the fire would sweep the entire block. The damage is estimated to be $12,000. Chief Swingley personally directed the fire fighters. He warned Jewell to come out of the Tressel home, but just as the fireman turned to obey his chief a burning celling fell on him.

SNOW DELAYS DESCENT ——7!#« Height of 18,373 Feet Reached After Crossing Europe’s Highest Peak.

Speciul Cable to the Post-Dispatch. CHAMONIX, France, Aug. 10.—The balloon Sirtus, manned by H. Spelterine ani three passengers, starting here, has sailed over Mont Blanc, Hurope’s high- est peak, and landed near Locarno? Swit- zerland, 100 miles east of here, on the shore of Lake Maggiore. In its flight the Sirius crossed the rpPennine and Pontine Alps. It attained a height of 18,373 feet above sea level, which is 2500 feet higher than the sum- mit of Mont Blanc. Messages were received.here today announcing the safe arrival of the par- ty. The messages said the landing had side, but that the way from the land- ing place to town would be a difficult and dangerous one. The landing place was at an altitude of 5400 feet. Sailed Over Ice Fields, The journey over Mont Blanc and the Alpine regions of lower Switzerland and upper Italy was made in an almost constant atmosphere of freezing cold, and under, as well as over, snow and ice. Snowstorms raged at parts of the pas- sage, and changing winds carried the balloon repeatedly back toward its starting point, then on to the south and east. Masses of snow were in the clouds thicugh which the party sailed. At no time did the aéeronauts descend any- where near the timber line. Their whole trip was made in the bleak upper air. Glaciers filled valleys where the -aero- nauts would have been glad to iand, and at other places the snow was so deep that there seemed no prospect of getting a balloon out. The half frozen men, who had meant to descend much sooner, were thus kept in the air for hours after their suffering had become intense. Blanc Crossed Before. A successful balloon trip ever Mont Blanc and the Alps was made in No- vember, 1906, by two Italian aeronauts in the balloon Milano. The greatest altitude reached at that time was 20,500 feet, and the rarified at- mosphere made it necessary for the mén to resort to oxygen to keep alive. The Milano, which went up from Mi- lan, Italy, came down at Aix-Le-Bains, France, after having covered a dis- tance of 175 miles in three hours.

36,000 Feet the Record. In an ascension made from Wolver- hampton, England, in W862, the instru- ments showed after the landing that the baioon had risen to a height of 36,- 000 feet, nearly seven miles above the earth, Neither of the aeronauts was able to see and both became partially paralyzed after 29,000 feet was passed. in the basket were James Glaiser and John Croxwell. The observations they male on their remarkable journey. are on record In the Royal Geographical So- Clety, at London. NEGRO WAITERS ALL KOWTOW BEFORE SENATOR STONE THESE HOT, TEMPER-TRYING DAYS

aT BUILDING $700,000 BELOW THE ESTIMATES C. L. Gray Construction Co. Gets Contract on Bid of $596,771.50.

The contract for erecting the new Municipal Court building at Thirteenth street and Clark avenue was awarded Tuesday to the C. L. Gray Construction Co., which made the lowest of 12 bids. President Reber said that the com- pany’s bid, $696,771.50, was $200,000 lower than the estimated cost of the work. “The price named by the Gray com- pany is so low that it will not now be necessary to eliminate the tower, which was a feature of the plans drawn by Isaac S. Taylor,”’ he said. “Neither will it be necessary to sell the Four Ceurts building and the oid City Hall. .After adding the tower at a cost of $65,000 we will still have enough left to spend $422,229 on the in- terior of the bullding.”’ The material to be used is blue Bed- ford limestone of the same quality as has been selected for the piers of the free bridge. Twelve bids were submitted, each for three materials. The Board of Public Improvements’ estimate for the work, which Is to in- |! clude the excavations, stee! work, walls and exterior finish, was $1.000,000. Bids! were based on Georgia granite, blue Bedford limestone and Kettle River ' sandstone.

WINE PARTIES IN SCHOOLS OF, NO, ONLY Beth Buxom. Janitiies ean Charge and Defies School Board Member. Special to the Post-Dispatch. PITTSBURG, Aug. 10.—A school scan- dal has developed here in the charge that expense accounts in the last year were padded to an exorbitant degree. An expert accountant who has just fin- ished an investigation has made a re- turn, setting under the head, “Legiti- mate Expenses,’’ $9000, while under the head, “Questionable,” he has set down items aggregating $21,000. Director Edward Edwards, who had charge of school finances, openly ac- cuses Mrs. W. D. McAuliffe, buxom janitress of one school, and her invalid husband of giving wine perties in the eeHar of the building two or three times, a week. Mrs. McAauliffe, who is also engi- neer of the building, came back with @ statement that she never had any- thing more than ‘a little beer’ at her parties. Her Salary Raised. Bhe announced that she was prepared to go into court and show how certain directors had been in the habit ef com- jing to the school while it was in ses- sion and “trying to dance with tfe teachers.” ! The janitress received newspaper men at her home in the school,- wearing a fine black skirt, a neat white shirt waist and a hat bearing valuable plumes. She said that after a serious injury to her husband, who was janitor, she had taken up the work, and that the board had raised the salary from $100 to $150 per month. “With reference to the story that we had wime parties here, I want to say it’s a lie,” said Mrs. McAuliffe. “We have had some parties, it is true, for my husband, who has been hurt, and per- haps we did drink some beer, but what of that?

ST. JOSEPH, Mo., Aug. 10.—Archie Fagan, a young farmer of this county, who was arrested on a charge of send- ing improper letters through the malls, has been -delivered to the Federal au- thorities. Fagan, for whom a search has been made for several months, is accused of responsibility for the death of Grace Chenoweth, the 14-year-old daughter of a farmer at Cower, near here, who com- mitted suicide by swallowing carbolic acid last June. The parents of the girl found letters from Fagan addresged to her, and when} confronted, she confessed. A short time later she went to her room and swal- lowed the poison and was dead when discovered by her mother. The Cheno- weth family is highly respectable, and feeling in the Cower neighborhood was so strong that Fagan ran away. It was supposed he had left the coun- try, but a few nights ago he attempted to shoot a policeman here, and this led to his identity becoming known. Fagan is 25 years old and little is known of his antecedents. He had been employed in before the suicide of the girl and was kr.own as a ‘gun toter.” The meetings between Fagan and Grace Chenoweth were clandestine and the family did not even know they were acqueinted. As a result of her daugh- ter’s untimely death, Mrs. Chenoweth has been confined to her bed ever since sae poser me 05. pppoenres eerie and Set reggie, Se aes a Saws May Spec.

City Attorney Thomas L. Anderson will not prosecute householders who re- fuse to comply with Jeptha D. Howe's garbage box ordinance until the validity of’ the ordinance is established in the courts. The City Attorney doubts its validity. Th City Charter provides that no spe- cial or general erdinance which is in eonflict or inconsistent with ordinances of prior date shal! be valid or effectual until such prior ordinance, or the con- flicting parts thereof, are repealed by express terms. The new, garbage can ordinances does not repeal in express terms section 687, chapter ll, article 13, of the revised or- dinances, which provides that any sort of a garbage receptacle may be used. The Howe-Thiele ordinance merely states that all ordinances or parts there- of in conflict with it are repealed. Thinks New Law Void. Mr. Anderson, and other experts on city ordinances, are of the opinion that the old garbage ordinance is not re- pealed by the new ordinance, that it is still in full effect, and that the new ordinance is invalid. The Howe garbage box ordinance, re- quiring all householders to buy non- absorbent, water-tight, covered garbage boxes, is classified as a genera] ordi- nance. ‘The old ordinance ‘s also a gen- eral ordinance. This being the case. Mr. Anderson thinks the old ordinande can be repealed only by express terms, and that it is not affected by the gen- eral language of the Howe ordinance. my at- tention was called to the new ordi- nance, that I would not prosecute peo- ple under it until its validity has been established,” said Mr. Anderson Tues. day. “It appears to me that the new ordinance does not repeal the old, and is therefore tnvalid."” Any Box Meets Old Law. The old garbage box ordinance is a “wide-open” law, and has been tested in all the courts, including the gy. preme Court of the United States. Any box, barrel, or o her receptacle with- out a lid, meets the req trements of this ordinance. When the attention of City Counsellor Walther was called to the fact tha: the Howe ordinance does not in ex- press terms repeal the prior farbage box ordinance, he said: “I cannot express an opinion at thi« time. I expect the ordinance to come before me officially later, and unti! 1 does I do not care to give an opinion as to its validity.” — Oldest Rallroad Engineer Dies. ELGIN, I1l., Aug. 10.—James V.

Mr. and Mrs. George R. Pahiman of 40946 Cook avenue say they ‘will under- take a balloon honeymoon “in thea fall.” Mr. Pohlman is president of the George R. Pohlman Undertaking Co. He was married at 9:30 p. m. Monday to Misa Bonnie Delo of 3142 Sutton avenue, Ma- plewood, formevly of Springfield, Mo. His first wife, who was Miss Meadie Gibbons prior to her marriage six years ago, has been dead five months. Pohlman is SX years old and hig bride is 24. They met three years ago. Three weeks ago the young widower made hig first call upon Migs Delo as a suitor. A week later their engagement was an- nounced to Mrs. Johbn H. Pohiman of 5045 Raymond avenue, mother of the bridegroom, and Mrs. Louisa Delo, mother of the bride. Both mothers ap- proved the match. Monday evening Mr. Pohlman took his fiancee to his mother’s house for dinner. The hot evening was spent on the ver- anda. The little group talked about the weather, autoing and ballooning. About 9 o’clock Mrs. Pohlman sud- denly said: ‘‘Well, when are you children going to get married?’’ “Oh, I think pretty soon, mother," languidly replied George, meanwhile fingering a folded document inside his coat. “T think we'd better be going now, Bonnie,’ said George, a little later. ‘Yes, I must go home,”’ assented Miss Delo. “T wish you mizht stay longer, but it’s so far out to Maplewood,’ Mrs. Pohlman sald. Both went to Mr. Pohlman’'s _resi- dence, where George Baescher, a chum of Pohlman, was waiting on the porch. The Rev. C. T. Squires, pastor of the Cook Avenue Presbyterian Church, ar- rived a moment later. All entered the parlor, where Mr. Pohlman presented a marriage license and the marriage was ‘performed at once. Mrs. Pohlman and Mrs. Delo were notified by telephone that Pohlman and Miss Delo had reached home safe- ly and were going to stay there. Tuesday morning the bridegroom, when asked where the honeymoon would be spent, said he thought of taking an automobile tour in the fall. Then, turning to his bride, he ex- claimed: “By George! How would you like to take a honeymoon balloon trip?’ “So lang as I can be by George [I'll go anywhere,” Mrs. Pohlman said, with enthusiasm. “Then we'll go up in a balloon,” said Mr. Pohlman. “That's settled.’’ Wednesday: 40c Assorted Nut Cream FORTNER WILL FIGHT TRIAL FOR EMBEZZLEMENT His ‘Attorney Hint Hints That He Must Be Tried for What He Was Extradited. WILL DENY FORGERY —_—_——— Claim Will Be Made That Tul- ley’s Signature on Steer Check Was Genuine. Thurman A. Fortner of Chicago, a brother of M. Dwight Fortner, is in the city for a conference with his broth- er’s attorneys. “IT am here to render what assistance I can to my brother,” he said. “I an- ticipate that bond will be given during the day, and that my brother will be out of prison before night. “As to his defense; or the attitude of his wife toward him, I cannot speak now. I may be able to give. out @ statement a day or two later. I have not had an opportunity te see my brother, but will meet him this after- n°on.”’ It is said that Thurman Fortner has been in communication with Mrs. M. Dwight. Fortner and is prepared to tell hig brother just what his wife will, or will not do, for him. Thurman Fortner ig a clerk in a Chi- eago Hotel. He was formerly a clerk at the Jefferson Hotel at the time his hrother wus employed there. He bears a striking resemblance to his brother. He held a conference with Thomas D. Lawler of Memphis, who has been en- gaged to co-operate with St. Louis lawyers in Fortner’s defense. That Fortner will plead as his de- fense that although the $12,000 check he is accused of forging an indorsement on was not indorsed by Henry C, Tulley, he (Fartner) did not put Tuliey’s name on the check, is indicated by a state- ment he made to Sergt McMullin while on his way back fr Paris. ‘“Fortner said Tulley never handled the check,”’ said Sergt. McMullen, Tues- day, “and when I remarked that some- body must have signed Tulley’s name to it, he sald, ‘Yes, I guess somebody did, but I did not.’ ” Sergt. McMullen said Fortner also de- nied signing his wife’s name to deeds of trust of Parkview real estate. The Sergeant says Fortner also admitted his wife did not sign them. “J will make no statement regarding my case except through my lawyers,” said Fortner. ‘“‘Then it will be a writ- ten statement. “T never told Sergt. McMullen any- thing about the check or the deeds of trust. I think Circuit Attorney Jones is asking for an unreasonably high bond.” Sergt. McMullen says Fortner received a letter from his wife while he was a prisoner in Paris. The letter, the/police- man said, was sent to Fortner through his Paris lawyers and handed to him in jail. McMullen said he does not know the contents of the letter. No application for bond for Fortner had+been made up to noon Tuesday. Fortner complained of the heat in the jail and said he was anxious to see his brother. Life Imprisenment for Attack. WELCH, W.

MIDOW HOLDS LAMP WHILE 2 SUITORS FIGHT Woman Lights. Her Back Yard and Sees Army Recruit Stab Boarder. Mrs. Mary Ann Eichner, widow, held a lamp above her head to light the rear yard of her home at 1117 South Third fireet while two men, one a _ soldier, fought with knives for her affections, She is a prisoner at the Soulard Street Station. Leeked up with her is James Ober- shon, a Jefferson Barracks recrult, one of her admirers. James O’Mara, the cthet, Is in the City Hospital with knifs wound in his right cheek and a deep cut over his ieft eye. Richard Nichols and Frank Weber, who attempted to stop a fight, were not arrested, O’Mara is a roomer at Mrs. LTich- ner’s home and occupies the apartment which Obershon vacated when he join- ed the army. The fight is sald by the police to have started when Obershon accused O'Mara of trying to supplant him in the faver of Mrs, Eichner. Mrs. Ejichner denies this. “I was just having a little party” she said, “‘and I was pouring beer for my guests when I heard a disturbance in the back yard, “Taking a lamp from the table I ran out to see ,.what was the matter. O’Mara and Obdershon were fighting and two other men were trying to pull them apart. “Tf they fought about me I don’t know it. I regard both as friends, but I am not in leve with either.”’ Mrs. Eichner say that the fight fas- cinated her and that for 2 minutes she held the iamp while the battle was in progress. “ft didn’t want to seream and have my friends arrested,” she said, “and I was afraid that if I took the lamp back in the house somebody would get killed tn the dark.” Mra. “Eichner says she was impartial and didn’t care which of the combat- ants won the fight, ee rs ee TCHAUFFEUR HAS EYE TO FUTURE SAILS IN MELA Sees Balloons Superseding Autos and Wants to Be a “Sky Pilot.” Joseph Heine of 3524 Rutger street, a chauffeur, who says he believes that the time will come when the balloon ‘sky pilot,”’ as he terms it, will take the place of the automobile chauffeur, made his initial balloon trip Tuesday afternoon, to qualify as a pilot. He was accompanied by Capt. John Berry. They left the gas works at Sec- ond and Rutger streets at 1:0 p. m. Tuesday. Heine must make 10 trips, one of them at night and alone, fo qual- ify as a pilot. He is a member of the South St. Louis Aero Club, and the Melba, M. A. Heimann’s balloon, was used. The ascension was scheduled for 11:30 a. m., but when the Melba was laid out in the Laclede Gas Coa.’s yards, two small holes were found in the bag. Th>° repair delayed the flight an hour and a half. Capt. Berry said the holes were due to an accident in transportation. Mrs. Joseph Heine, mother of the ers- bryo aeronaut, and Misses Clarq& und Agnes Heine, his sisters, witnessed *he start. The young women say they will make a flight with Capit. Berry in the new South St. Louis. a bailoon Hel- mann is now manufacturing. They are 18 and 16 years old. “I believe that bal'ooning. airship and aeroplane sailing will come in general vogue before many years, maybe.very soon,”” Heine said, “and that the pro- fessional pilot will be in great demand and can command big money.

By Leased Wire From the New York Bureau of the Post-Dispatch. NEW YORK, Aug. 10.—On recommen- dation of Referee Arthur D. Truax, Justice Brady of the Supreme Court yesterday granted Mrs. Lulu F. B. Rambaud an interlocutory decree of ab- solute divorce from Dr. George Gibier Rambaud, head of the Pasteur Insti- tute. The decree provides that Mrs. Rambaud shall have an allowance of $250 a month until the final decree shall have been entered. The specific charge on which Mrs. Rambaud was granted the decree was that her husband had been gullty of misconduct. Mrs, Rambaud suspected her husband, and directed the maneu- vers of detectives and friends. End of Lively Romance. The decree ends a courtship and mar- ried life that were full of iomance. Dr. Rambaud saved her life twice, once before they were married and once afterward. She saved his once. Mrs. Rambaud was Miss Lulu Fowler Bryan, daughter of Mrs. Betty Bryan, wealthy and prominent in the society of Houston, Tex. It was a cat bite that brought the couple together. One sum- mer afternoon in 1899 Miss Bryan was frolicking on the lawn of her mother’s home at Houston with several other young women, when a vicious cat bit Miss Bryan on the ankle. Physicians who attended the young woman decided that the cat had rabies and advised her mother to send her to the Pasteur Institute here at once. She was placed in charge oi Dr. Rambaud. The rabies expert became interested in the young patient and piloted her safely past the danger point of hydrophobia. They were married in 1900 in Christ Church, Houston. Three years later Dr. Rambaud saved his wife from death in a collision at Seventh avenuo and Thirty-fourth street. Then it was Mrs. Rambaud’s turn. The next summer she and her husband were staying at Saranac Lake. The physician and his wife went out in a towboat in the morning to shoot ducks. On taking up his shotgun it went off, severing an artery in his leg. Mrs. Rambaud put a tourniqutt on the leg, and then bent to the oars. After rowing until she was almost ex- hausted, she and her husband were picked up by a launch and hurried to a surgeon. CUMMINS LAYS PLAN FOR FIGHT UN‘OLD TIMERS ee een Special to the Post-Dispatch.

The Republican national convention of 1912 is the promised fleld of the spec- tacular battle of the campaign already intimated. The tariff and how to re- vise it furnished the line of demarca- tion between the opposing forces. Senator Albert B. Cummins of Iowa, homeward bound from Washington, flung down the gauntlet and for all practical purposes officially and formal- ly delivered the political ultimatum which opens hostilities between the pro- gressive and the old order which has aligned itself under the banner carried in Washington by Seriator Nelson W. Aldrich. | The big items emphasized by Senator Cummins as critical points to be pushed to the fore by the progressives are these: 1. Placing in control at the head of organized Republicanism men who will stand absolutely by platform pledges. 2. Struggle for this policy at every convention, local, congressional or state between now and 1912 where there are enough progressive Republicans to make it worth while. 8. No general revision of the tariff for perhaps a decade; put revision from time to time in particular schedules, as expert investigation demonstrates to be necessary, and at the same time conforming with the broad principle of protection. 4. Appointment of an expert tariff commission at the earliest practicable moment to furnish this information to Congress. 5. And particularly—no opposition to President Taft, whom the progressives believe to have a thoroughly progress- five program in hand for his adminis- tration—at least until the presidential policy demonstrates the contrary, “What immediate step will be taken by the progressives?" Senator Cum- mins was asked. “We shall present the issue flatty to every Republican convention between the present and the national convention of 1912, where it is possible for the is- ‘sue to be presented. That issue its: SO Sh, sae ay ee genes O6 Ste

_ MGRAW DROPS ~ BUNTING GAME FROM TACTICS

Giants’ Leader Prefer’ to Keep His Men Continu ally at the Hit and Run Attack. By JAMES CRUSINBERRY. HP importance of speed in a game of baseball has been pronounced in the See - The contest of Monday afternoon was ‘a hummer. It lasted 10 innings, and a mighty drive in the tenth to the right field fence for three bases by Larry Doyle gave the victory to New York by -@ Bcore of 4 to 3 The Cardinals have AERO GT CUS tn tenet nin digplayed just as great speed on the of- fense as the Giants, but the defense of the local team has wavered in each one of the games. Monday's battle should have gone to St. Louis easily, but Catcher Eddie Phelps wasn’t at his best in pegging the ball around the bases, and Young How- - gard Murphy missed a chance to shoot @ man dead at the plate by a throw frem short center field. New York was ‘quick to take advantage of any weak- ness on the part of the Cardinals. - McGraw seems to have taught his players a style of attack that tends to ‘break up the defense of the opposing team. He has made a success of it in the series here, but whether he can ex- @eute the same style of “stuff” against & strong defensive club like Chicago is —— anether question. ‘““Muggsy” has prac- tleaNy abolished bunting by his men Presumably the reason for this is be- eause the other fell are playing for bunts. The defense is set for it. The only time he has ordered a bunt in the three games was in Monday’s game, “when Pitcher Raymond went to bat with a runner on first base. The advantage of the hit-and-run style of attack over the bunt, is that the former practically takes one man out of service in the infield. Suppose a ‘runner is on first base. He gets the signal from the batter to go down. As the pitcher begins to wind up, the run- : ner starts for second. Either the short- _ stop or the second baseman must run to cover the bag and it leaves a hole in _ the infield through which the batter may poke the ball. If the batter suc- _ essfully puts the ball through that hole * or hits safely in some other way, the ’. first runner is likely to go clear to _ third, while the batter is safe at first. _ Then there’is a chance to score a bunch _ of runs, with a man on third and one _* on first and no one out. ‘ The bunting game would have placed ' @ runner on second and there would _ have been one man out. _ © course if a team needs but one run to win the game or tie the score, the bunting game might be reckoned as * good baseball. ' If McGraw had a stron-er hitting | club he would score more runs per game _ than any of them by his method of at- ' | tack. His policy seems to be a determi- Matien to keep the base runners on the ‘- move. He probably would rather see ‘them die on the bases while on the run than to die standing glued to the bags. Base hits against such pitching as one finds today are not plentiful enough to _ho’d the base runners on the bags unti! & base hit drives them home. That’s the \way the game was played before . the pitcher learned even ‘io curve the PAOLA. hy. BA GALAN PA a eye SPOS WS PL LLG ALE EM EEF PORES Se toes AL RR trend ~ oe McGraw is undoubtedly a great lead-

present series of games between the New York Giants and the Cardinals. McGraw has won three straight from Bresnahan’s boys and has taken each one through speedy playing. The secret of the success of the Giants seems to lie in the batters hitting with the runner.

er in baseball. His manners on the field and toward the umpires may be unsportsmanlike and his teachings may even approach rowdyism and be detri- mental to the best welfare of the game. But he has a purpose in all of it and is’ sincere. He is after runs and teaches daring te his men in order to get them. Good Support for Bachman Would Have Won Game for the Cardinals ESTER BACHMAN should have ‘won his game against the Giants : Monday. He pitched beautiful bal! from start to finish, and though nine "base hits were registered, a good de- . fens play would have held the New Yorkers to two runs. “‘Bugs’’ Raymond Was in the box for the Giants and he a them with his ‘‘spit ball’’ till the et nth inning, when his vitality gave lay and just before the score was tied, @n@ when the Cardinals showed signs of f batting in about a dozen runs Ray- mond was sent to the shower bath and 1 called in to save the game. ‘Cardinals tied up the score before 1 could retire the side, then the went into the tenth inning, when, two men out and a man on first §, Larry Doyle hit to. the fence and home one run that won the game. a> © “es wR psy a me “te y Murphy, .the young California Boy who is being tried out in center d by Bresnahan, was a bit too anx- | to field the ball when Larry hit his tiple in the tenth. It was a line drive im @ little ‘to right center. Murphy : a to on the ball, probably with the of preventing Schlei, who was from going further thar second "But Murphy was too close and . ball hit the ground, then bounced a va: from him and rolled clear to lag Tt was a triple and Schlel : 3 x oe Vids OT get siete the speedy O'Hara ened for New York with a liner to , My eld and be dashed.on to second on ed the ball on the first Bither Ellis should, have had or 5 alco been. credited with

his rum counting. low fly to Murphy and it was better than even money he would catch O’Hara at the plate. But the speedy New York runner beat the ball easily. Murphy seemed to have enough speed, but was slow in getting the ball away. The suspension of Pitcher Sallee has greatly crippled the Cardinals for the present New York series. Big “Sal” is the most effective pitcher Bresnahan has on his squad and is especially good against the left-handed hitters of the New York club. But Roger believes in strict discipline on a ball club and set his unruly twirler down fer a time as well as fining him $100. : Sy Seymour saved the game for New York a couple of times by going back into deep center and hauling down line | drives by Joe Delehanty. Yet it has often been said that Seymour is weak on running back after them. It wil! be remembered that the Cubs won the famous extra game last fall from the Giants when the pennant was decided, by hitting the ball over Seymour's head, Larry Doyle made two singles, a triple and a sacrifice in his five trials at the bat. He scored one of the runs and drove home two others. He’s one fel- low on a team that everyone knows is in the game. Steve Evans stole twa bases. In the fourth inning, he stole third and stole second in the eighth frame. He drove in one run for the Cardinals and avoid- fed a double play at that time by a lively sprint to first base. Ellis was coming home from third and a double play would have retired the side without ¥

After the lowly Washing- ton club had batted and banged Bill Graham out of the box and then landed on the veteran Bill Dinneen until he could no longer stand the attack, young Bailey was called into service and the thin and fragile youth held the Senators to nothing for the last five innings of the game, while his mates went out and overcame the lead and won the game for St. Louis, 8 to 7. It was a long-drawn-out and tiresome game of ball, but because the team battled on such even terms the crowd was interested to the last. Each team had a batting rally in the first inning, then each held a little festival with the stick in the fourth. When this much of the game was over the Senators had counted seven runs, while the Browns had but five. s Then it was that Manager McAleer sent in Bill Bailey and Bill shut out the home team for the balance of the game while the Brownies battled and tugged scoring one run in the fifth, then an- other in the sixth that tied the score and finally another in the seventh that put them one to the good, which lead they held to the finish. The Browns batted better than they have in any game since leaving home. Danny Hoffman and Hobe Ferris were the chief swatters. Hobe hit safely four times and hit at the right time, too. Hoffman hit safely twice, one of his swats being a double when two men were on the bases and they both scored. Washington, too, used three pitchers in the game, besides inserting no less than three pinch hitters, so the scorers had their hands full to kedp tally of all the doings before their eyes. Witherup started pitching for the Senators, but gave way to Walter Johnson after four innings. Walter found the heat too siz- zling and couldn’t put a thing on the ball. He left in the éighth almost down and out because of the hot sun. South- paw Gray finished the game..

HE defeat of Monday suffered by + the Cardinals was undoubtedly due to the failure of the meteoro- logical department to give advance in- formation of the approach of the cy- clone—Larry Doyle. Larry may have originated in Breese, Ill., but to judge by his velocity now he is on his way to Galesburg. Albert Griffo, once the marvel of the ring in the use of hts hands, complained to a Judge at Chicago Monday that the friends of his championship days no longer come around to bail him out and pay his fines. Probably none of the aforementioned friends yet owns a@ con- trolling interest in Standard Oil and therefore hardly feels able to properly do justice to Griffo’s case. Why not match Raymond and Sallee and let them have it out to a finish? Steins at two paces, contestants to con- tinue hostilities as long as the house will supply ammunition. All fines to be remitted by both managements. How is it that towns and states which were wont to call out good citizen sol- diery at the mention ef a heinous six- round boxing bout, now pass Board of Trade reSolutions guaranteeing $100,000 for the Jeff-Johnson fight? Could it be possible that some of these uncharted places are looking for recognition on the map? Or is there some danger that the country at large will forget that the suburban real estate of these paradises affords some of the, most sublime op- portunities for safe investment of capi- te: known since Tex Rickard gave us that splendid chance to invest in Gold- field mining stock? In discriminating hetween the amateur and the professional in the boxing world the Police Department of St. Louis has accomplished a feat that has stumped the world. Hitherto the only amateurs St. Louls has concealed have been those athletes who have never yet com- peted. The umpire who thought he had ap- pendicitis when he was merely suffer- ing broken ribs from the effect of a foul tip surely couldn’t have been very “long’’ on inside baseball. Good Night Punch.—The. best tc dis- cover what a “straight left’ means is to seek out James J. Jeffries and in- sult him. “Under the new game law hunters can

bring home their game with them. Un- der the old law you couldn’t take it out of the county where it was killed, unless you could manage to eat most of it first. If Stanley Ketchel isn’t training for that bout with Sam Langford his mana- ger will need a skilled mechanic to as- semble the fragments on the night of September 8. Samuel is one of the most renowned alienists not held in captivity by Attorney Jerome. He can separate fighters from their lucid moments with a rapidity and certainly that assures him a big box future. Strange the pertinacity with which Billy Papke seeks fight, after having been given plenty of it his last two outs One is inclined to suspect that he wants them to lead out the goat, Hugp Kelly. Whenever Papke wants to get back his reputation his manager produces Hugo. Then they beat the hapless Latin into retirement and then challenge Ketchel. Detroit is again near the shoals and Hughey Jennings is preparing to throw out ballast in order to clear the bar. Germany Schaefer is leaving, and un- less the ragged work of the fielders impreves there is likely to be some more shifting done. Tuesday morning the Ti- gers and Athletics were but one game apart and scheduled to play together. One can almost imagine the blush dy- ing out of Hughey’s freckles at the thought of losing his grip on first place. Only once, and that was over a Sun- day while all was still, did Detroit lose its hold on first place this year. The following Monday they took back the glory and, thanks to the Browns’ loss of some eight straight games to the Tigers, later on, Jennings was able to rise above temporary disaster. The present menace looks like a real serious one as both Poston and Phila- délphia are crowding dangerously and playing well. And to think that the Philadelphia team still remains in the hunt and absolutely refuses to fulfill the promise of a decline which its poor work here seemed to almost guarantee. That club did not look like a champion- ship team any more than Eddie Collins resembled a champion batter. But there Philadelphia (nearly) is—and there Ed- die Collins still is, too. Appearances are such treacherous ac- quaintances—they’re so deceitful.

Friends Desert Young Corbett After Defeat Once Great Fighter Almost Broken Hearted Over Failure to Regain Form of Earlier Days. BY ROBERT EDGREN, NEW YORK, Aug. 10.—The San Fran- cisco papers tell about Young Corbett’s leaving for the East. Only one of his old friends went to the ferry to see him off. A sad contrast to the old days when “friends’’ followed Young Corbett in crowds, lived high and drank freely at his expense. They used to boast of their intimacy with the little Denver- ite, then. Now his old “friends’’ are looking for some fighter whose star is rising instead ef setting. Corbett is coming to New York, where he has a few left in spite of adversity. Gorbett takes his defeat by Johnny Frayne very much to heart. He ex- pected to accomplish great things in the ring again, and looked upon Frayne as merely one of the steps to a new for- tune. Corbett points again the old moral: Once defeated, a champion seldom comes back again. Only the youngest, the comers, can stand defeat. f Jack Johnson hasn’t broken any speed records yet. That is why he is caught so often. There’s some trouble or other about bthe race in which the Lunghi of Italy beat Harry Hillman. It appears that the race was scheduled as 600 yards, and that on arriving at Asbury Park the Italion champion refused to run un- less the distance was raised to 600. It is not at all unlikely that Lunghi was asked to run a 600-yard race, or that at least that was his impression. He takes his information through an interpreter. Naturally he wanted to stick out for. 600 yards, which is nearest his distance— the half mile. Hillman was trained for 500 yards. In shape for the 600-yard event, his favorite distance, he will give Lunghi or anyone else a run. He lost

JEFF-JOHNSON BOUT STILL A LONG WAY FROM BEING ASSURED NDW YORK, Aug. 10.—Sam Ber- ger will make a trip to the West this week to see if he can close a deal for a bout between Jim Jef- fries and Jack’ Johnson.

by only half a foot, and the race was run close to record time. Hugh McIntosh of Australia arrives Friday. Jeffries passed him in mid- ocean, going the other way. But prob- ably McIntosh will have an offer to make to Jack Johnson and Sammy Ber- ger, who is Jeffries’ mouthpiece while the champion is out of reach. We all hope the fight won’t go to Aus- tralia. We want it here at home—some- where within reach. But should Mr. McIntosh collar the two bfg fellows he’ll clear up another fortune. Burns and Johnson drew a world's record gate. Johnson made himself very unpopular throughout Australia by his actions after ths fight. All Australia wants to see Johnson beaten. If Jeffries ig im- ported especially for the purpose of doing the job all Australia will turn ou. to see the greatest of all champions in action. Even if Mr. McIntosh makes the rumored $70,000 offer for the fight he won't be picking any lemon. Bui don’t tell him this. He may persuade Jeffries and Johnson to leave our anx- 3 shores.

rible calamity.

Bowker, the new superin- tendent at the Naval Academy, to suc- ceed Capt. C. J. Badger, is said to look with favor upon the plan of permitting such an entry to be made from the Aca- demy for the regatta, and the probability that he will make such a recommenda- tion to the Secretary of the Navy. Capt. Badger’s objection was that the regatta took up too much “time of the cadets from their academy duties. This objection can be overcome in, several ways, it is claimed, chief among them being the offer of the crew to take such time as may be required in preliminary work at Poughkeepsie from their Sep- tember leave, although it is thought that such an expedient will not be required, and that the Navy Department will gladly grant any leave of absence de- sired. The midshipmen were represented in a crew two years ago and finished third in the ’varsity race to Cornell and Co- lumbia. They had been drilled for a two- mile race and could not pull the inter- collegiate distance. Under a revised sys- tem of training they would be a hard crew to beat and if they go to Pough- keepsie next year great interest will be given to the regatta.

= BASSETT TELLS URACK DISTANCE RUNNER 10 REST Irvin Biel, Winner of Many Races, Run Down From Hard Campaign.

anvinimepeees Irvin 8. Biel of the Missouri A. C., who up to Saturday had won every middle-distance race of any consequence held in the vicinity of St. Louis this year, has been told by Dr. C. W. Bas- sett, athletic director of the M. A. C., to take a rest. Biel as a consequence will not compete {fn the race from the M. A. C. to Ramona Park, to be held under the auspices of the Hardware Men's Association a week from Wednes- day. Last Saturday Biel competed in a race from the M. A. C. to Ramona Park. He did not run his usual race, as he al- hlowed Joe Hrxleben to go out and take the lead at Fourteenth street. Erxleben won rather easily. Biel and Frank Johnson, the Granite City boy, kept together all the way over the 12-mile course. He has not been running in the form he displayed earlier in the season, and it was for that reason that Dr. Bassett told him to give up all ath- letic work for the time being. Biel is the present Western A. A. U. cross-country champion. He won at least five long-distance races held under the auspices of loca] clubs and organiza- tions across the river this season. In fact, hig victories became so regular that it seemed like presenting a prize to him to hold a long-distance race. Biel is naturally light and the frequent runs have resulted in loss of weight.

Conference Will Be Held Tuesday Ev sal g | Arrange All Details: of the Three Mile River Event.

The captains of the Central and Western Rowing Clubs have been asked to attend a meeting to be held at the Mound City Rowing Club Tuesday even- ing, at which arrangements will be made for the Lemp plate race for eights, to be rowed on the river a week from Sunday afternoon. When the race for the Lemp plate was held some time ago all three crews that started, the Mound Citys, West- erns and Centrals, were swamped. The Centrals had their shell badly broken. The race was called off. At the meet- ing Tuesday evening it will be decided whether the race was declared no con- test or ordered re-rowed. If the race is ordered rowed again the Century Boat Club will be invited to enter its eight. The distance for the race, which in all probability will be three miles down- stream, will also be agrééd upon. The Central Rowing Club has had its eight repaired, and the crew is now out training each evening. It was thought for a time that the Centrals would be unable to compete because of stroking the crew, the other of which are: Cari Drehmann, ce Schnucher, No. 6; Baxmeyer, a | Kenneman, No. 4; Much, No, 8; u, No. 2; Hines, bow, and Allen, ¢ The race is expected to Fr considerable speculation << Seae ateor as the members.of the Central 1 Club think that thelr crew is able.

MANY GOLF STARS ENTER TOURNAMENT AT CHICAGO CHICAGO, Aug. 10.—Play in the an- nual open tournament of the Onwent- sia Country Club for the Mayflower Cup and subordinate trophies, was start- ed over the club course Tuesday. The first half of the 86-hole qualifying round is scheduled for Tuesday and more than one hundred of the best golfers in the West started. From the makeup and size of the entry list it could easily be imagined that the Western champion- ship was under way. Charles Evans of Exmoor, the winner of the Western amateur championship at the Homewood Club, in the recent tournament, was one of the prominent entrants. Evans is playing in usual brilliant form and, although he failed to qualify in the Lake County team contest, he played a steady, consistent game. He was paired with J. W. Mould- ing of Edgewater in that event. The final match in the Lake County team cup competition is also scheduled for Tuesday.

FLETCHERIZE, | HAVE REAL JOY OF A CIGAR

F YOU WISH TO

Chew-Chew Man Divibree Habit, but Says, if You MUST Smoke, Yourself by You Should Prepare His Method.

———— Special to the Post-Dispatch. ; CHAUTAUQUA, N. Y., Aug. 10.—If you are addicted to the use of the weed and must have your cigar after dinner and other times, you will never know the highest joys of which a smoke is eapable until you have entered the ranks of the Fletcherizers and chew your food until it crawls up your tongue in a creamy mass in defiance of grav- ity. This lure to tobaeco users was held out here today in a lecture on dietetic righteousness by Horace Fletcher, the florid, cherubic and white-suited old gentleman from Venice who has been dubbed the chew-chew man and who has grown quite fond of the title. Not that Horace Fletcher approves of smoking, far from it. He deplores it. Tobacco is one of the most unrighteous articles with which you can tickle your palate. -But if you’re determined to be wicked dietetically and want to get your mon- ey’s worth from your r smoke, stop bolt-

ing your food, learn how to tell when you are hungry and your mouth and pal- ate will be put into such a healthful con- dition that they will appreciate a deli- cacy of flavor and aroma that they have never dreamed of before, according to the noted authority on vital economy. There are very few people who know when they are hungry, or rather when they are not hungry, in the opinion of Mr. Fletcher. The all-gone feeling just above the waist line and the feeling of faintness that comes over people about dinner time are, according to him, not true hunger, but an unhealthy craving of the same sort as that for liquor or other stimulants. If you are hungry at 11 o’clock don’t rush off and eat something to satisfy it, he said, let your hunger accumulate and then clip the coupons of appetite and enjoy it as real cash when you have reached a stage when your mouth waters and your nostrils are distended at the smell of food and you want to

John Pfeifer, Father, Leads Off With 310 Pounds; Youngest Child, 140. —— ee ‘SELDOM TOUCH BEER

Come by Great Size Through Ancestry, Grandmother, 84, Tips Scales at 280. There are six persons in the Pfeifer family in South St. Louis, and they weigh 1520 pounds. The heaviest is John Pfeifer, the father, who weighs 310 pounds. Sophie, the baby, both in years and avoirdupolis, weighs but 14. But Sophie is only 17. Her mother, Mrs. Frieda Pfeifer, is 48 and has reached 280 pounds already. Tne oldcst child is Adam, 29, who regis- ters 250 on the scales. His younger brother, John Jr., 26, beats him just 49 pounds. Emma, 24, already weighs as much as Adam. The elder Pfeifer is a saloon keeper at 2300 Cherokee street. He has been fn the saloon business 16 years and has been married 30 years. The Pfeifer children come by their great’ size through ancestry. The moth- er of Mr. Pfeifer, who lives at 2115 Cher- okee street, is 8 years old and weighs 250. Her husband, now dead, was a very large man. “When we children. were about 15,” said John Jr., “we were so big that we had to have all our clothes made to ©:der."’ “Do any of you drink beer?” he was asked. “No; now.\and then some of us have taken a glass, but we are not regular drinkers of beer—not one of us. I may Say we practically never touch it.’’ “To what, then,,do you attribute your heavy weight?” Young Mr. Pfeifer was leath to ex- press an opinion on this point, but final- ly he admitted that his mother had fed ‘the children generously on schmierkase. “But I drink sarsaparilla,” said John Jr “Maybe that helps to make me fat.

GREAT BICYCLE FEATS

Two Vocalists Who Can Sing Please Audience—Imitators . Makeup on Stage. one of unusual excellence and is nicely balanced. Every act is meritorious, there is a wide variety of entertainment, without a tiresome num- ber or one that does not end before the audience is willing for the performers to retire. , Senora Rosario Guerrero is featured in the bill, and her act a few years ag» created a sensation in New York. It failed to deeply impress the audience at the Columbia, because it is panto- mime, and American audiences, erpecial- ly in the West, do not take kindly to the sort of pantomime that requires a printed explanation to make it clear. But Senora Guerrero is a_ beautiful woman with wonderfully symmetrical arms and it was hard to understand how the bandit resisted her wiles and her sensuous dance as long as he did. It seems that a woman of Guerrero’s beauty and grace as a dancer ought to find a vehicle for her talents better than the pantomime. Two Singers That Can Sing. There are two singers ‘at the Columbia who can sing, and do sing. They are John McCloskey and Mabel McCane. McCloskey is an operatic tenor with a beautifully clear voice that he handles with ease and precision. He was ex; tremely liberal with his encores and ap- parently could have entertained his audience for an hour without tiring himself or those who were listening. Miss McCane is a St. Louis girl and she is not without honer in her own city. Her ‘‘act’ does not prevent her using her splendid voice, though it pre- vents her being considered merely as a singer. Her rendition ef “Annie Laurie” is a delight, and there is music in it, even when she turns it into mod- ern ragtime. Weorderful Bicycle Feats. The Klein family, three men and three women, do wonderful feats.on bicycles and unicycles. As a climax to their act they all mount their single wheels, each carrying a cornet, drum or other mu- sical instrument, and as they circle gracefully about the stage play “Dixie Land” as well as any little German band ever played it. Great. Henry Clive deserves credit for ‘“‘get- ting away with’ his act, which is no act at all. His chatter and his manner please, and though his sleight-of-hand is not much and his “second sight’’ per- fermance is a burlesque, he holds the interest and proves his right to the title, “smart entertainer.”’ Jones and Mayo do a series of imi- tations, their best being their appear- ance as Montgomery and Stone in “The Wizard of Oz.” They do their make-up as the Scarecrow and the Tin Wood- man in sight of the audience, who thus learn how it is done. Edwina Barry and a company of six give a little playlet, “The Home Break- er."’ She is a servant girl with a mania for adding to her collection of 500 photo- graphs of men who have kissed her. With a woman less clever the effort might be vulgar; with Miss Barry it is extremely funny. POLICEMAN USES STREET CAR AND GATCHES AUTO SPEEDER Luck With Patrolman and Machine Breaks Down—Appeals From Fines of $350. Patrolman R? L. Bruns of the Mag- nolia Avenue Police Station caught an aute speeder on Tower Grove avenue Monday, alihough the policeman had no motorcycle in which to chase the auto and had to depend on a street car. Luck was with him, however, and the auto broke down. The auto was owned and driven by Kennett Burns of 1 Lenox place. He was first seen by the policeman at Grand and Tower Greve avenues and was caught at Tower Greve avenue and De Tonty street. Judge Tracy fined Burns $10 and costs Tuesday. Motorcycle Policeman Ferguson ar- rested four speeders on Washington boulevard between Taylor avenue and Sarah street shortly after 4 p. m. Mon- day. They were: Joseph Lauer of 755 Bayard avenue, who was fined §25; Clarence L. Wolff of Clayton, who was fined $10; Paul Doherty of the Park Auto Co. and Victor Massa of 5910 The- odosia avenue. Doherty ncw has appeals from police court auto fines amounting to $350 pend- ing in the Court of Criminal Correction. He jook a-change of venue to the Wyoming Street Police Court.

Hadley named 25 election officials in Kan- gas City whose fitness was questionable. All were Democrats. Among over 500 Republican elec- tion officers, none was mentioned for investiga- tion. Arguing inferentially every Republican judge and clerk was sober, honest, decent, upright, de- yoted and patriotic and, what is more, has his name in the city directory. : If this were an isolated case Gov. Hadley’s position would be both less vulnerable and more agreeable. But search of his conduet, personal and official, will show him always measuring of- ficial honesty by the strictest rule of partisanship. This was no less true in the case of perfidy by ‘Republicans in the Legislature than in the case of the Governor’s left-handed indorsement of hon- esty among Republican election officials in Kan- sas City. Allowances m&y be made for exaggerated state- ments and unsubstantiated charges in the heat of a campaign. But overemphasized and ridiculous partisanship sits uncomfortably on the public mind in times of political placidness. Missouri has been disposed to feel that it had a broadmind-

‘ed young Governor, eager to carry out his em- phatic promises to give an administration de- signed t& benefit all the people. Apparently Mis- ' gouri has ground for disappointment. = = % = However the Alton doctor who refused assist- ance to a man fatally injured doubtless knew the

man could die without assistance. - =_—- "

i - STRONG THREE-LINE LINKS. ___The average “Help Wanted” and “Employment Wanted” advertisement is three lines long. Three times the length of Tennyson's “jewels’’ of five words apiece, and not imperishable, these daily items in the common life of the city toiler have an eloquence of their own. They are links between man and man, between men and women and the opportunity to live, and their study is one of the branches of modern economics. In five principle cities of the country the in- _¢rease in “Help Wanted” ads during the past six months has been 40 per cent in excess of the _ ‘eOrresponding six months of last year. In these __ eities—New York, Chicago, St. Louis, Philadel- ~~ phia and Boston—162,910 more employers needed and advertised for it than during the same riod a year ago. The New York World printed 97,619 more of these adds, the Post-Dispatch print- ed 16,775 more, the Chicago Tribune 10,517 more, the Philadelphia Inquirer 26,559 more and the | Boston Globe 11,440 more. This increase is in the highest degree a hope- ful sign. It means an increase in comfort, in confidence, in security, in morality—for steady employment keeps many commandments unbrok- en. It shows that we are indubitably on the up- ‘grade, with a good breathing spell in which to set our house in order. A corresponding increase during the last half of this year ought to put _ every worker who is not an incorrigible dolt on _ some payroll. = = *

In a thousand years, according to Boston med- ical experts, we shal] all have hoofs instead of How about horns? si i ir SS — . A COMPETITION IN ETHICS. An interesting case of professional medical ethics broke out in Alton Sunday, when a man was struck and fatally injured by a Terminal pas- senger engine. The man was removed to a hospital, but the railway surgeon refused to treat him, on the ‘ground that he was a trespasser. The City Phy- Sicilan refused to act, on the ground that it was

ey, the railway surgeon's business. But he afterward appears to have changed his mind and attended the victim until he died. _ Refined ethics appear in all their subtle deli- ; acy, or delicate subtlety, as the case may be. Was the railway surgeon's attitude correct, eth- . feally speaking? If so, he must be not only held blameless for any suffering resulting from want of surgical attention, but actually applauded for _ his firmness in the sight of a dying man’s agony. _He showed himself a very Cato in his devotion to rule and routine. But there is not so much Bi to be said for the city doctor. He wouldn't, but he did. He showed a lack of moral fiber, an inde- -‘Jsion, and betrayed an absence of clear insight into the ethical situation. If it was unethical for © im to try to alleviate the suffering of a dying an immediately after the accident, it appears, | the uninstructed layman, that it was equally thical for him to soothe his agony had . eae 2 . ars K, ve epee ¥ fF or BEY £5 . ia ot one SSeS a - two hours SENATOR WARNER’S PLIGHT. No one ought to begrudge Senator Warner the bagful of census appointments which the Presi- dent is reported to have placed in his hands for the purpose of assuring his re-election to the Sen- ate. The Senator is in dire need of something with which to supplement—offset is the better word—his senatorial record. The masses of the people of Missouri agree with the masses of the people of Iowa, Kansas, Min- nesota, Wisconsin, Oklahoma and other Western States in opposition to robber tariffs. They want cheaper clothing, cheaper tools, cheaper furni- ture, cheaper glass, cheaper materials with which to build houses, bridges, vehicles. They want cheaper food. They are tired of paying taxes for the benefit of enormously wealthy corporations. But in the battle just ended in Conrress for re- duced taxes, for cheaper necessaries and lower cost of living—a struggle between the interests of the favored plutocrats and the people, where did Senator Warner stand? Not once did he raise his voice in behalf of the masses of the people; not once did he protest against the rapacious de- mands of privilege. The only speech he made on the tariff was a plea for the owners of zinc mines —a plea for more protection on zinc. The only the Senate was when he voted “aye” to every high tariff proposition supported by Senator Aldrich. He voted with Aldrich 119 times. Not once did he vote against him. Senator Warner does not represent the people of Missouri. He is not in harmony with their sentiments. He does not stand for their interests. He represents the protected trusts. He stands for the interests of plutocracy. Senator Warner cannot plead for re-election on the ground of faithful service to his constituents. He has served their spoilers. He has placed him- self in direct opposition to their interests, their desires, their principles. He has misrepresented them. It was because of a realization of his de- fenseless position as a Western Senator who de- fends robber privileges that the administration was inclined to fill his hands with gifts to pla- cate his indignant constituents. But if the voters of Missouri can be bribed to condone a record of betrayal on the part of their Senator by a lot of census appointments we shall sorrowfully revise our opinion of Missouri manhood.

The total estimated value of the cereal crops of this country for the year reaches $3,102,100,900. The total value of the gold and silver output of the United States is $132,630,000, and of the world is $614,651,300. The farmer is the real wealth producer and his products are the prosperity- makers. —_————_—_—_—_——_09-¢@—___- ——___—_.- A MYTH IN THE MAKING. In the eight days that have elapsed since the Viviano children disappeared, active minds have been at work. The field of speculation has been plowed, dragged, planted and a great crop of ideas has been harvested and garnered into im- perishable but elastic gossip. Turrisi, the supposed kidnaper, has grown from a harmless, wide-eyed Italian boy to the spectral proportions of a heartless cutthroat. Each sleuth- ful endeavor adds to the vagueness of his per- sonality. His trail has broadened until it is most- ly circumference. It leads in all directions. The circumstances have faded into diaphanous uncer- tainties. It is assuming the form of a myth. The single reality at this time is the indiffer- ence of the Viviano family. Cheered by the half- telepathic means of communication between Ital- ians, and feeling rather than knowing that re- lationship which “binds the Italian bandit to a sympathetic peasantry, they have ceased to worry. In good time their babies will be returned to them as mysteriously as they were taken away. And they will be satisfied. But will the people of St. Louis be satisfied? Will the public be content in the knowledge that children may be stolen with impunity? Is it all a matter of such general indifference and such personal concern that detectives may not be sent to aid the Chicago police because the Vivi- anos will not pay their expenses? The crime was not one against the Vivianos, but against the State. It is an offense of such proportions that the last Legislature provided capital punishment as the appropriate penalty. And yet a low-grade Italian commits a capital crime and filters away into oblivion in defiance {of high-grade police.

A question as to the “increasing Teutonic in- fluence on the United States’ at the expense of British prestige is raised in a London journal by an American, who says: “We not only exchange professors with German universities; we import historians, psychologists and chemists for our best chairs. Whereas, a generation ago we looked to Oxford and Cam- bridge for inspiration, now we turn to Heidelberg and Leipsic. We have Germans on the bench, in business, in the law, in office and seeking it. En- glish with a German accent is more familiar to our ears than English with an English accent.” On the other hand, we import from England engineers, museum directors, ministers, theater managers, actors and music hall artists, younger sons, fire insurance companies, masculine fash- ions and many other things,. incliding large amounts of capital. In the importation of plays and novels as between the two countries the hon- ors are with England. Our exportation of heir- esses to England far exceeds that to Germany. More American millions are spent in the purchase of English country estates that for castles on the Rhine. Unter den Linden exerts no such influ- ence on American society as Carleton Terrace.

To the Editor of the a enele. It is of some interest to all of us to have paranolia defined, that it may stand court. When paranoia 1s What the experts in Thaw’s case said it was, every- one of us may come .in the position some day to be called a paranolac. Paranola is a condition of the mind paralléi with trance, or with the ancient doctrine of sorcery. Sorcery was known to the Greeks and Romans. Dualism was a favored teaching of many philosophers and many poets, foremost Shakspeare and Goethe. The latter said: “Two souls dwell in our breast.” That terms like paranoia are used in court in a simple condition is due more to the queer pro- ceedings of trials as to the medical experts. The latter have to meet the lawyers and they take great pains to examine every detail of a case and to elab- orate every point, for it has been the custom since the days of savagery to begin with the examina- tion of simple things, anticipating that the accused may get so mixed up toward the end of the trial that he may show weakness here and there—and that the lawyer may win the case. In courts nowa- days the spirit of deception is predominant and takes ‘the extreme form of perjury and chicanery in a ter- rible manner. By this action and argumentation each party shows that they fight the battle in the line of liars instead of with a sane regard for the truth. The medical expert has to keep up to the standard of the time. But it is desirable that he knows bet- ter, as in Thaw’s case, what he is talking about and after he selected an immensely scientific word, not to forget the simple underlying condition of the same. A. SIEBERT. In Appreciation. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. Your editorial on “Discontented Europe” is indeed refreshing. ‘Already the masses must have become restless and the dumb anger against caste has de- clared itself.”” Bully for you! Some of our grand dames who tied themselves to the royal paupers of Europe and paved the royal dance halls of the Con- tinent with the dollars which represent the blood and sweat of our toilers, may one of these fine morn- ings enjoy a few of the whirlwinds sown by iheir royal roughnecks for a couple of centuries past. Democracy, the voice of him who sweats and pro- duces but hungers and starves, will yet dictate the terms upon which the world can rest in brotherhood and peace, blessed even by its birds and beasts. Your noble article is appreciated by G. W. BOSWELL, Organize “The Washington Continentals.” To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. I have read in the Post-Dispatch of a number of plans by the Million Club to increase the population of our city. Now people from the East who come to reside here have been accustomed to the pleasure of seeing both clvic and military parades and taking part in celebrations on Washington's birthday, Me- morial day and the Fourth of July, so that a picnic or sail on the river, or a visit to a summer garden are not satisfying and they therefore vote this a dull town. Now I have a suggestion to make, seeing that St. Louis has no such military organizatiofe as the Ancient and Honorable Artillery of Boston or the Old Guard of New York, or the State Fencibies of Philadelphia. Let some of our well-to-do citisens organize an independent company of Washington continentals, composed of business and professional! men, as well as clerks and mechanics who can stand the expense. (I have seen such organizations in the East) from 2% to 40 years of age, to turn out and act as escort when the President or other distin- guished guests come to our city. They can also do reverence to the “‘Father of our Country” by parad- ing on Washington’s birthday, also including the an- nual ball at night, which latter would prove quite popular, so much so as to rival the Veiled Prophet's ball. The uniform composed of dark blue cutaway coat, with buff facings and gilt trimming, white cross belts, ruffled shirt front, buckskin knee breeches, buckled shoes, three-cornered hat, with the number 76 stamped on plate on front, all of which goes to make as showy, attractive and impressive appearance as the best. It would create a feeling of patriotism in the rising generation and would help considerably to draw crowds of people to our city to see the company parade. If well drilled in the manual and marching movements, they would be likely to create a friendly spirit of rivalry in tac- tics between the company and the boys of the First Regiment, which would be the means of bettering the National Guard. EX-LIEUTENANT R. I. Mm. War in the Air. ‘To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. While every government, including our own, 1s buying and manufacturing aerial muchines for the purpose of waging the next war in the air as well as on land and sea, the people, who will suffer most from such a war, ought to read H. G. Wells’ remark- able romance under the title of “The War in the Air,”’ to be had at the Mercantile Library and book stores. Mr. Wells, who in former scientific romances has shown himself a pretty good forecaster of coming events, pictures all the horrors that might ensue from war when it shall be waged with huge Zeppe- lin flying machines and the various styles of aero- planes now being perfected. And he proves conclu- sively the folly of such & war—that it must bring about wholesale destruction, without any decisive benefit to any country. This is because of the fact that such a war might go on indefinitely, flying machines being cheap and quickly manufactured. As fast as one fleet was destroyed, another could be launched, until the alr would resemble the neigh- borhood of a rotting carcass from which swarms of pestiferous insects were constantly springing up. I am thrilled with each report of a successful) flight, mut all reasonable men of good will should exert themselves to prevent the use of flying machines in warfare. Civilization would suffer tremendously it nations engaged in this murderous pastime. Ww. The Garbage Can Question. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. , My experience shows that it is useless for the city to require householders to provide sanitary garbage cans, of any description, until the drivers of the garbage carts are disciplined and compelled to use proper care in handling the receptacles. I have sev- eral times gone to expense in providing a good, tight garbage can at my residence, only to find it batterea up and useless in a day or two and lying. in the middle of the alley, having been flattened out by being run over by passing wagons. This wil) be the case until] more care is used by the city’s em- ployes in replacing the cans to thelr position. WNot long ago I watched one of these “arts through a crevice in my barn door. The team was driven at @ walk, without stopping, through the alley, while the driver grabbed cans,. buckets, boxes, etc., and hurie@ly tossed the contents over the side of his

Business is business, even — very scantily did it escape being written ‘‘es- pecially’’—in a kingdom. That night the 100 head of cattle were driven up from the pasture and penned in a corral near the ranch house for de- livery in the morning. When night closed down and the house was still, did Santa Yeager throw herself down, clasping that formal note to her bosom, weeping, and calling ouf a name that pride (either in One way or the other) had kept from her Iips many a day?

She paused for a moment under the live oak trees. The prairies were somewhat dim, and the moonlight was pale orange, diluted with particles of an impalpable, flying mist. But the mockbird whistled on every- bough of vantage; leagues of flowers scented the air; and a kindergarten of little shadowy rabbits leaped and

LOVERS ARE SELFISH

Self- Absorbed, They Do Not Consider the Feelings of Others. By> HELEN OLDFIELD.

prea Te

" is an old and beautiful fancy of. the poets of all ages that love is the one relic of Paradise which our first Le losing Eden as “The fruit Of man’s first disobedience an@ his fall,”’ were permitted to bring thence, past the angel with the flaming sword of fire, who henceforth was to bar its. gates. The “Eden Rose” Kipling calls it The autbor of “How to Be Happy Though Married” says that each young cople who begin marriage upon the right basis bring the Garden of Eden before men once more. “The two are alone; love raises a wall between them and the outer world.” Undoubtedly this theory to some ex- tent is true; for, to the two who sin- cerely love each respectively is and ought to be the one man, the one wo- man, in all the world, says Helen Old- field in the Chicago Tribune. But this is figuratively, meaning that the one is so far first in regard and in ‘affection that all others are out of the a nning. car. Feit ¥ “4 . as 4 . literally; in practice the idea may be carried too far. Lovers, married or single, have no right to ignore the fact that there are other people on earth to whom they owe duty of some sort or another; to neglect such duty is both impolite and impolitic. The self-absorption of a couple who have just made the discovery of the in- tensely interesting fact. that each of them is all in all to the other often, al- though their friends may be too good natured to say so, amounts to imperti- nence. That it is amusing does not cancel the rudeness when a pair of lovers prac- tically cut the rest of their acquaintance in order to enjoy each other’s society undisturbed and undiluted. When, on a coaching or sailing party, Jack and May al! day long sit shoulder to shoulder, murmuring in each other's ears without so much as a word to say to any one else, or a look at the scenery which they are supposed to have come tc admire, the fact that they are in love may explain, but it does not wholly ex- cuse, their rudeness.

MUSIC CIVILIZES

Its Story Is the Tale of the World’s Progress. Written for the Post-Dispatch By JOHN K. LE BARON

USIC was born when the first NVI breeze sighed and sang through the pliocene follage. Its origin is ascribed by Lucretius to the whistling winds, Zarlino credited the waterfall and Camelion believed that music was born of the birds. In any event, music has been a re- fining influence in the economy of na- ture almost since time began. For Pythagoras’ “‘music of the spheres’’ an-

Despite this antiquity it was not un- til} the eleventh century that Gui Are- tin, a Benedictine monk, invented mu- sical notes and five centuries later be- fore counterpoint became one of the turned her face to the southeast and threw three kisses thitherward; for there was none to gee, Then she sped silently to the black- smith shop, 00 yards away; and what she did there can only be surmised. But the forge glowed red; and there was a faint hammering such as Cupid might make when he sharpens his arrow- points. Later she came forth with a queer- shaped, handled thing in one hand, and a portable furnace, such as are seen in branding camps, in the other. To the corral where the Sussex cattle were penned she sped with these things swiftly in the moonlight. She opened the gate and slipped inside the corral. The Sussex cattle were mostly of a dark red. But among this bunch was one that was milky white. And now Santa shoek from her shoul- der something that we had not seen be- fore—a rope lasso. She freed the loop of it, coiling the length in her left hand, and plunged into the thick of the cat- tle. The white cow was her object. She swung the lasso, which caught one horn and slipped. off. The next throw en- circled the forefeet and the animal fell heavily. Santa made for it like a pan- ther; but it scrambled up and dashed

. against her, knocking her over like a blade of grass. Again she made the cast, while the aroused cattle milled around the four sides of the‘corral in a plunging mass. This throw was fair; the white cow came to earth again; and before it could rise Santa had made the lasso fast around a post of the corral with a swift and simple knot, and had leaped upon the cow again with the rawhide hobbies. In one minute the feet of the anima! were tied (no record-breaking deed) and Santa leaned against the corral for the same space of time, panting and lax. And then she ran swiftly to her fur- nace at the gate and brought the brand- ing iron, queerly shaped and white-hot. The bellow of the outraged white cow, as the iron was applied, should have Stirred the slumbering auricular nerves and consciences of the nearby subjects of the Nopalito, but it did not. And it was amid the deepest nocturnal silence that Santa ran like a lap-wing back to the ranch house and there fell upon a cot and sobbed—sobbed as though queens had hearts as simple ranchmen’s wives have, and as though she would gladly make kings of prince consorts, should, they ride back again from over the hills and far away. In the morning the capable, revel- vered youth and his vanqueros get forth, driving che bunch of Sussex cat- tle across the prairies to the Rancho Seco. Ninety miles it was; a six davs’ journey, grazing and watering the ani- mals on the way. The beasts arrived at Rancho Seco one evening at dusk; and were received and counted by the foreman of the ranch, The next morning at 8 o’clock a horseman lopea out of the brush to the Nopalito ranch house. He dismounted stiffly and strode, with whizzing spurs, to the house. His horse gave a great sigh d swayed foam-streaked, with down-drooping head and closed eyes. But waste not your pity upon Be'- shazzar, the flea-bitten sorrel. Today, in Nopalito horse pasture he survives, pampered, beloved, unridden, cherished record holder of long distance rides.

musical arts. influence of music in the scheme of civilization. in music as weil philosophy or invention. To the South Sea Island savage the tom-tom’s. dissonant and monotonous music is all-sufficient. In the cabin of the unlettered negro the concertina ad the banjo showed a Pmarked advance. The age of Stradivarius and Amati, which gave birth to the modern violin, ith a voice that could all but talk, made the sixteenth century a-most im- portant one in the evolution of music. It was in. the closing years of this same musical century that the highest form of dramatic music, was invented by Rinuccini of Florence. Not until the opening years of the nineteenth century were the possibil- ities of grand opera as we enjoy it to- day realized, though Gluék’s “Orpheus” and the three great operas of Mozart the rich fulfilment of the next 50 years. Within that brief span were born practically all the great composers of our grand operas. They were Beethoven, Auber, Weber, Rossini, Meyerbeer, Donizetti, Halevy, Bellini, Balfe, Thomas, Flotow, Verdi, Wagner, Wallace and Gounod. Confucius realized the potency of musica] influence and frequently prefaced his discourses by playing on a stringed instrument. To the music of Dante's “Divine Comedy” Carlyle attributes the great beauty and effect of that poem. “Its depth and rapt passion and sincerity make it musical; go deep enough, there is music everywhere.” Music ig the poetry of sound. Since the days Aasculaplus it has been held that music has valuable prop- erties In healing the sick. Aesculapius himself, according to Pindar, healed acute disorders with soothing songs. Lowell says: “The very gnariiest and hardest of hearts has some musical strings to it,” yet we are told that Dr. Johnson had no love of music, and that upon being told that a certain plece of music was very difficult, he expressed regret that it was not impossible. But Dr. Johnson was a human contradic- tion. Most of us will be more disposed to agree with Prof. cbc ggere. when he

§ PARIS? CEST POUR AIRE, DIT JEAN M MULLEN Police Sergeant Shatters Myth of Great French Detec- tive System. FOUND WIDE OPEN CITY Only Law There Seems to Be Against Murder and Rob- bery, He Says.

Gay Paree is what you call the one grand joke, according to Police Se-- geant ‘‘Jean’’ McMullen, who has just returned from the French metropolis. “Of course, this is sirictly entre nous,” said “Jean,’’ speaking confiden- tially, ‘‘but, believe me, Paris is noth- ing but a circus. Stretch a tent over it, and they could truthfully advertise it as the biggest show on earth. ‘“T’m not going to include this in my compte rendu, which is the French way of saying report, but let me tell you that Paris is only for people whe want to do something they are ashamed to do at home. “Tt’s a great place for an old man whe has an affaire du coeur with a young girl. Everything over there is a la belle etoile (in the open) and it is no uncommon. sight to see oddly matched couples spooning on the boule- vards. The tables of the cafes are on the sidewalks, and there men and wom- en sit and flirt without attracting the least bit of attention from Parisians. No Million Club Needed. ‘“Tt’'s an awfully big place, though. They told me there were more than 13,- 000.000 books in the National Library. I took their word for that, because I didn’t have the time to count them. “TI never saw so many automobiles in my life. Over there they never s'‘on one for exceeding the speed limit. There is no limit on speed, but if you run slowly you are committing an of- fense. I stood at the summit of the boulevard Montmartre, and as far as I could see there was nothing but auto- mobiles. “The Parisians point with pride to ax opera house which was in course of con- struction for 14 years. I told them we had that record beaten to a frazzie with.our free bridge. “But I want to remark that Paris is nothing like old St. Louis. Mon ami. Fortner, may have enjoyed himself be- tore I got there, but I know I didn’t. Couldn’t Get Square Meal. “Of course, I was interested in the sights because I had heard so much of the place; and I was treated very cordially by those I met, but I was homesick all the time. Those table d’hote affairs are not in it with our corn beef a la cabbage. “T was interested chiefly in the Police Department of Paris and to say that I was disappointed would be putting it mildly. Our rookies can do better work than their most experienced sleuths. ‘they are all for style. They made me laugh. ‘The Notre Dame is a great cathedral. They said i* is 130 nreters long. It must be. They have only 21 graveyards in Paris, and at the pace they are going, I don’t see how they will have enough room. They showed me the Pere La- chaise, where all the famous men of Paris have been buried. It’s a pretty big place, but it is well crowded.” ‘Were you on the Bois de Boulogne?’ McMullen was asked. “Say, don’t let a Frenchman hear you pronounce it that way,” said ‘‘Jean.”’ “You must say Boy de Blamange, and articulate with your nose. I’m so used to speaking that way now that I can talk with my mouth shut. To be sure I took in the Bay de-Blamange and the Champs EtySees-ftoo. The Quartier Latin interested me most. There are 16,609 students there, I was told.” Pete Wells’ Squad Needed. McMullen, whose former knowledge of foreign affairs was confined to a slight speaking acquaintance with fan- tan players in Hop Alley, says the Frenchmen are great gamblers, but they are never arrested for it. “The town is wide open all the time. They never arrest anyone except for burglary, robbery or murder. “Every residence in Pdris ts built like a jail. They have high stone walls in front and iron bars at the windows. Every resident ‘employs an old woman to act as night watchman.” .
