Diaz walked erect amid a hail of-bullets, directing the fire of his men, who, however, he insisted should keep under cover whenever possibile. When one soldier, enthused by the ex- ample of his commander, fought on his ‘feet, Diaz turned his pistol upon the man and commanded him to get behind a stump. Chamorro, who has been fighting for twenty years, is idolized by his men. He swore cheerfully when his troopers exposed themselves and good naturedly pushed them behind the cover of stumps and tengled underbrush.

Indeed, at one time the position of the insurgents was des- perate. Chamorro and Diaz had moved on the main fortifications at Recreo and Ta- tumbla Hill, and Mena was under or- Gers to cover the lines\of retreat from Recreo.. Mena had moved up the Rama River, but hig 600 men were weak from their march and failed to effect the expected junction with the other armies of the ineurgéntse when the assault be- They encountered roads knee deep With red elay and overgrown with tropi- ‘loal plants, through which they cut a Way with their machetes, but their progress was slow.

After dispatch- ing the messenger to Mena he adopted the plan of repulsing the enemy when they left their trenches but without at- tempting a further advance. Mena realized the situation and in- stead of satisfyihg himself by cutting off the possible retreat of the Govern- ment troops, pushed forward for an as- sault. How he and his @w men got through the intervening two miles of brush the General has:been unable since to explain. They seem to have rushed so desperately that they failed to real- ize the obstacles before them. Gen. Chamorro. had been fought to a standstill] and his men were well nigh exhausted. Over the field telephone Commander-in-Chief BHstrada was in- formed that the situation was desper- ate and that while his army was not defeated, victory was not in sight. When the hour was darkest for the insurgents, cheers were heard and pre- bleeding men emerged from the jungle into the half-cleared plantation where the battle was being waged. Charged the Hilti. Without stopping for orders, and yell- ing at the top of their voices, the rein- forcing troops swept across the clear- ing to the rear of the enemy and charged the hill at a point. where no machine guns had been placed. The movement of Mena served as a signal for a general advance by the three armies of the insurgents. At a critical: moment the insurgents swept up the hill in the face of a furious fire. Mena was the first to reach the sum- mit. At his heels were his determined soldiers. The defenders, depending on their rifles only, were unable to repulge the attackers. Suddenly abandoning their trenches, the Government troops fell back before Mena’s men and charged the advancing armies under Chamorro and Diaz. Mena pushed his attack on Gonsaled rear. In 10 minutes it was all over, but in that 10 minutes heavy execution was done. Scores were killed outright and the wounded covered the summit of the hill.

It is impossible to write sweet, soul-

stirring music with sticks of stovewood and filat-irons flying thick and fast faround your head. F. Guiseppe Bufanno, musician. and composer, placed this de- claration on file in the archives. of the vorce from his: wife, Mattie A. Bufefino. Bufanno bélongs to a family long cele- brated in the music circles of St. Louis. He alleges in his petition for divorce that when he sat down to write a piece of music his wife, like the farmer -who used turf.to drive a boy out of hia ap- ple tree, would first try the virtue of a stick of stovewood on his head. If that failed to make him desist, he states, she would throw.a smoothing iron at his head. If he still persisted in writing music she would kick him in the stomach and.call him a “‘Dago.”’ This treatment, according to Bufanno, finally drové the music out of his soul, compelled him to give up composing, and forced him to accept “menial employ- ment as a clerk.”’ The Bufannos were married June 28, 196, and separated Oct. 28, 1909. Bufanno alleges that his wife had, besides her other failings, a violent temper and e jealous disposition, and accused him of showing attention to other women. He says she also threatened to shoot him.

Fortner, real estate dealer, a cousin of Fortner, and the first mem- ber of his family to appear at the trial, atcompanied Mrs. Fortner when she en- tered the courtroom. The accused man’s wife, as usual, was clad in black. When Fortner walked to the counsel tabla a few minutes later, he and his wife greeted each other affectionately. He was smoking a big black cigar. Just before court Was convened Mrs. Fortner [whispered to her husband. An instant Hiater a bailiff touched Fortner on the shoulder, and told him to quit smok- ing. Smiling broadly Mrs. Fortner said to her husband: “I told you so.” At the outset of the héaring the de- fense and the State formally announced that their evidence was all in. Assistant Circuit’ Attorney Newton stated that “the prosecution elected to send the case to the jury on the second count of the indictment, charging that Fortner “uttered” or passed a forged paper. Judge Grimm then spent nearly half jan hour examining the instructions sug- gested to him in writing by attorneys for the defense and for the State. Witnesses for Fortner. At Thursday. afternoon's session Charles C. Petrie, an insurance man,, was called as a character witness for Fortner. He was asked by Assistant Circuit Attorney Newton whether he had ever heard that Fortner committed forgeries prior to Feb. ll last. After vig- orous objections by Fiortner’s attorneys ithe witness was permitted to answer. He said that if he had ever heard any- thing of the kind he would not have done business with Fortner. John M. Trendley of Hast St. Louis, testifying as a handwriting expert for the defense, gave testimony directly op- posed to that given earlier in the day by Gus. V. R. Mechin, the State’s chirog- raphologist. Sn STEER CHARGES FIGURES IN HIS CONTRACT WERE ALTERED F. A. Steer, president of the F. A. Steer Furnishing Goods Co., who was negotiating with Henry C. Tulley for the purchase of the Alice Apartments when his check for $12,000 was cashed just before the disappearance of M. Dwight Fortner, now on trial for for- j gery, told a Post-Dispatch reporter Fri- day that the figures in the origina! contract submitted to him -by Fortner had been changed from $27,500 to $14,000. This contract, Steer said, made it ap- pedrance in the trial Thursday night, when it was offered to Tulley for the purpose of identifying his signature. After identifying the signature, Tulley, according to Steer, discovered the change in the figures and called the attention of Assistant Circuit Attorney Newton to it. This contract was dat- ed Jan. 18, and on that day, according -to Steer, Fortner wrote to him that Tulley would exchange the apartments for Steer’s property and $27,500, Steer to assume the mortgage of $37,000. While eating his dinner Steer was called to the telephone and requested to go to the Four Courts to testify that the original contract was for $27,500 in- stead of $14,000. An objection was made to his testifying on the ground that the paper was not offered in evidence, but ‘merely for the purpose of identifying the signature. "IT do not know who changed the price,” said Steer. “Mr. Mechin, the hand-writing expert, held the paper to the light and@ showed me where the original figures had been erased. Of course, it is not reasonable that an offer of $27,500 of Jan. 13 would be re- duced to $14,000 Feb. 4. If the original offer had bebn for $14,000 I would have and has been much vppuo naohriiju accepted it.”

TAFT TO BE ALLOWED $5000 AYEAR FOR BOX IF OPERA IS ESTABLISHED AT CAPITAL Congressmen and Others Are Anx- ious That Hammerstein: Build » Washington Theater. WASHINGTON, Dec. 24.—Grand opera as a permanent winter establishment at the capital seems to be assured, accord- ing to a report current among members of the smart set. It its said that Oscar Hammerstein, at the time of. his visit here last week, was, assured by Wash- ington’s millionaires of yearly subscrip- tions that made it advisable for him to get an option on ground on the West side of Connecticut avenue, between K and IL streets. This plot, improved by one-story structures, is held at a rel- atively low price, considering that it is in the heart of the city’s residentia! section. Among the men “who are said to be interested in this innovation are Perry Beimont, with a yearly subscription of $20,000; Thomas F. Walsh, $10,000; John 000; Senator 8S. B. Elkins, $000 Sen- ator Chauncey M. Depew, | $5000; Gen. William F.' Draper, $5000; Mrs. Mary Scott Townsend, $5000, and many others, whose subscriptions range from $2000, the lowest sum for a season tick- et to a box, to $6000. The amount re- ported pledged is more than $100,000, while Hammerstein wants $200,000 tc guarantee his immediate expenses. One report which the smart set is dis- cussing is that an attempt will be made, through Congressmen who are person- @lly.in favor of grand opera, to allow $6000 a year to the President for a box.

Redemptorist Fathers will hold a mission next week at the Old Cathe- dral, beginning with high mass Sun- day at 10:30 a. m, The attendance of Catholics’ and non-Catholics is solicited.

Special to the Post-Dispatch. | WILLIMANTIC, Conn., Dec. 24.—Short- ly after 7:30 o'clock last night when the Christmas shopping trade was crowd- ing the streets of the city, there sud+ denly came from the east a large search- light. | As it approached the city it grew larg- er and larger, and attracted much at-. tention. When over the southeastern part: of the city it came to a standstill, and then performed a -number of evolutions.. Business was at a standstill for a while. Every eye in town was directed to the eastern sky. For a few minutes the.big light stood still, then its rays were thrown to the north, and remained there for a few sec- onds. Then there was a sudden turn to the west. Then the rays were thrown east, and for a few seconds the light re- volved as*though its director was looking for something. Light as Big as a Bucket. In a few minutes the light which looked as big as a bucket came for- ward a little and there could be seen the outline of something trailing be- hind, “Tillinghast’s airship,” was the out- cry that came from everyone. The airship with its dark outline sud- denly started upward and after a few seconds it came down again: It hov- ered ever the city for about fifteen minutes and then turned eastward, starting in the direction of Boston. It is generally believed here that the airship was that of Wallace Til- linghast of Worcester. The visit of the airship caused gréat excitement and at midnight several hundred people were still in the streets waiting for its return. Seen Over Several Towns. BOSTON, Dec. 24.—The mysterious air- ship that has been seen by many per- sons over various parts of Massachu- setts, with a searchlight throwing a glare ahead -- red tail lamps at-the rear, was seen again last night sailing about over Mariborough and adjacent tewns, its black shape plainly visible against the moonlit sky. After hovering dver Marlborough the ship headed to the eastward and was seen by many people in Ashland, South Framingham and. Natick. In Worcester it is pretty generally agreed that the airship is the one told of by Wallace. E.

OF Tit LEHIGH This Deal avin an Alliance With the Wabash and An- other Trunk Line. - BEGUN: TWO YEARS AGO Stock Held by the Reading, Lake Shore and Lacka- wanna Roads Bought. By Leased Wire From the New York Bureau of the Post-Dispatch. NEW YORK, Dec. %—The Moore- Reid clique, which virtually owns the vast Rock Island railroad system, it ‘s learned on the highest authority, has acquired control of the Lehigh Valley railroad. This means, according to Wall Street calculations, an alliance between the Lehigh Valley and the Wabash, control of which is known to be in hands friendly to the Moores, and the forma- ‘tion of a@ new trunk line from New York to Chicago. Carrying out these deductions still further, men who are supposed to know see in the friendly attitude of Edwin Hawley toward the Moores and Haw- ley’s known interest in the Denver & Rio Grande, which in turn controls the Western Pacific, the establishment of a new transcontinental line between New York and San Francisco. Those who do not go se far as that declare they detect m the recent de- velopments in connection ‘vith the Wa- bash, Western Maryland and other Gould roads incontrovertible evidence of the decision of the Goulds to drop their long and ruinous fight against and the gracefully from the eastern railroad field, in which they promised once to become a powerful factor. Campaign Began in 1907. ‘The .Moore-Reid party began its cam- palgn for the Lebigh Valley soon after the panic of 1907. At that time the con- trol.of that company was divided be- tween the Reading, the Delaware, ‘Lackawanna & Western, the Central ‘Railroad of New Jersey, the Erie and the Lake Shore & Michigan Southern. The holdings of the’ Lake Shore, Reading and Jersey Central amounted to $8,300,000 out of a total of $40,334,000, The exact amount held by the Erie hak fiever been revealed. It ts said to phaye been about $2,000,000. : ‘ “Yesterday ell those holdings had passed into the control of the Reck Island management, and with the strong position of Judge Moore in the Dela- ware, Lackawanna & Western, of whose stock it is:known he is one of the larg- est individual owners, the fate of the Lehigh is acknowledged te be in his hands. Deal Made a Year Ago. About a year ago it became known that the Reading, the Jersey Central and the Lake suore had. disposed of their holdings in the Lehigh. At that time the identity ef the purchasers was not revealed. ‘ Later it was ascertained that the stocks had been bought by the Rock Island folk and that the ‘price had been about $100 a share fer the holdings of the Reading and Jersey Cen- tral and the lowest quotation of 1909 for those of the Lake Shore. Subsequetly the Erie parted with its Lehigh stock at about the same price as that which was paid for the Lake Shore’s, it is said, and again the Moore- Reid interests were the purchasers. Since then there have been many pur- chases in the »pen market, until the Rock Island people had acquired” mere than the 30 per cent ° .terest which Har- riman once held, which held as a unit, gives control of any road. At the annual meeting of the Lehigh company on Jan. 18: Judge William H. Moore, Daniel G, Reid and E. 8. Moore, will be addéd to the directorate of that corporation in the places of Robert C. Lippincott, Geirge H. McFadden and Irving. Stearns, who, it is understood; wil: retire. Young Rockefeller in Wabash, Another important development from & stock market point of view in conneec- tion with the transfer of control of the Lehigh, will be the listing, it is be- lieved, of the stock on the New York Exchange. At present Lehigh is listed only on the Philadelphia board. In that market yesterday the majority of tie Purchases of the stock were said to be jfer the account of the’ Moore-Reid crowd. So far as the Wabash is concerned ft is believed that control is practically in the hands of John D. Rockefeller JP., who is known to t» on very close terms with Judge Moore. Mr. Rockefeller’s stock, it is said, is being held in tryst for him by tho Farmers’ Loan and Trust Co. - The Goulds hold a 22 per cent interest in the. road but it is understood they have given an option on that to the F Open This Es Evening Until 10 O'Clock.

NEW YORK, Dec. 24. -Wasg her own constant use et the hypodermic needle the cause of Ocey Snead’s death? Col. Robert J. Haire, counsel for Mrs. Car- oline B. Martin, the bathtub wictim’s mother, brought this question to the fore today as he was preparing to ap- pear in court for the third hearing on the cases ot Mrs. Martin and Mrs. Snead, whom the New York authorities are holding pending extradition to New Jersey. Col. Haire declares he has evidence to show that the young woman was what is known fn the popular vernacular as a “dope fiend,”’ “By that I mean,” said the attorney, “that she used drugs, chiefly morphine, for nearly two years before she died. I have learned this from talking with her mother about the cage. “The hypodermic needle was used upon her when she was seriously 111," continued Col. Haire, “and after that its employment was constant.

5 FF An aie __MONEY TRUST THREATENS, T. taliation for drastic life nope laws and reg- ulations. This was both « frank and an unprecedented assertion of power by the Money Trust. The sit- uation is one the whole country may well heed. Our banking system with its reserve require- ments causes money to flow in a steady stream toward New York. There it passes into the con- trol of a comparatively small number of men bound together by strong ties of self-interest Needless to say, this centering of wealth carries with it a vast power, which, we learn positively now, will be exerted to stay the progress of re- form as understood by the people of the various states and may be exerted to stay any progres- sive movement not approved by the money oli- garchy of the metropolis, Many civic and commercial bodies In the West have already \expressed hostility to the present banking system, inclination toward postal savings banks and opposition to financial centralization through the medium of a central bank. This op- position is crystallizing and financial boycotts against states will stand as a demonstration of the sound logic on which it is based. Nor will the West remain idle under the cir- cumstances. It is financially too strong and tem- peramentally too independent to remain sub- migsively at the mercy of the hide-bound finan- cial manipulators of the Hast. It produces enough wealth to meet all its own requirements for. im- provements. It may insist on handling the wealth it produces. +f

Now that Congress is “{dling, Speaker Cannon might explain why he demanded no investigation of his justly celebrated tale of a bribe. i i i -~ SLANDERING ST. LOUIS. The San Francisco Call, in an effort to arouse public indignation against alleged shortcomings in the street car service of that city,. recently quoted a certain “C. H. Stoddart of the Frank A. Munsey Co.,” as saying: “In no other city, with the exception of St. Louis, have I seen such Noah’s arks; guch dirty and disreputable street cars.” Concerning that statement it is not necessary to say many things, but it must be said that the gentleman quoted has either seen very few cities, or else he is of the tribe of those who in the fluency of their loquacity. sometimes say the thing that isn’t so. We hold no brief for the street railway com- pany of this city. We do not assert that all street cars in service here are as good as the pub- He has a right to demand. We do assert, how- ever, that many of our street cars are excellent and none are so old, or so dirty, or # dis- reputable as some of the cars on the horse’car lines still running in New York, or some of those in use on certain lines in Chicago. We say nothing of San Franciseo, for the people of that city have the street cars they voted for when they voted down the graft prosecution, and should be careful how they talk of them—or of others. Speaking of Ballinger, | any member of the Sen- ate can tel] the difference between conservation ape conversation with one hand tiled behind him. i A ip, >. - -F _ SENATOR SPOONER’S REGRET. Speaking in the freedom. of a complete retire- ment from political strife and with the wisdom of ripened years, ex-Senator Spooner recently de-

‘clared at a New England banquet that he re- grets having voted “for some of the laws.on ac- count of which menx~and corporate entities-are being prosecuted, who do not know what the law means, or whether they have violated it or not.” Coming from a man eminent both as a lawyer and as a statesman, the confession is curious. How did it happen that Senator Spooner and his colleagues enacted a law fo worded that no ane can understand it? At the time our anti-trust laws were under consideration the Senate was noted for the num- ber of eminent lawyers among its members. Sher- man, Hdmunds, Evarts, Thurman, Hendricks, Hill, Morgan, Dawes, Allison and Teller, as well as Spooner himself, had a part in the discussion known as the Sherman anti-trust act. The Su- eda 2 kenny ae pg a dE pF more learned in the law or in the legal signifi- ‘cance of words.

Let Peary Show the Danes. To: the Bditor of the Post-Dispatch. . Yours is a paper which stands for fair play and / hope you will make a demand through its columns on Peary te submit his data to the Danes. He left two days behind him. Every scientific man who accom- Panied him and the negro who, it is alleged, stood with him at the pole, stated in his lecture here that Peary missed the pole by three minutes or three miles. If by three, why not by more, and possibly many more? Cook\ believers have, no apologies to make; they believed what the greatest Arctic scien- tists in Eurepe believed. Peary must now submit his proefs to an unprejudiced body—the Danes, Dec. 22, - 1909. I. A. THORNTON. Schoo] Auditoriums Too Small. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. The decision of the Board of Education in regard to holding the high scheol graduation exercises in the auditoriums of the respective high schools is at pres- ent creating a great deal of agitation in senior classes. The two schools most affected are the Mo- Kinley and Central High schools, the auditoriuris of these schools being entirely too small for exercises which eur parents and friends have a right to at- tend. It is the duty of every graduate to afford an opportunity for their relations and friends who have followed with interest their course fn the high school, te see them receive their diplomas and hear their essays. Parents of all the pupils are anxious for a reconsideration of this matter and for a decision which will reflect credit upon their interest in the schools, “If such an intelligent body as the Board of Education cannot change its decision,”’ then they will remember the old adage which ‘Says: “Only a foel never changes his mind.’’ The pupils of the high schools demand a fair showing in this matter. HIGH SCHOOL SENIOR. i eenentied Who Owns the Streets? To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. By way of punishing the automobile owners of St. Louis for killing six people in the last five months, the former spokesman for the automobile interests suggests that they be allowed to run 25 miles an hour —about twice the present speed. In other words, h wants the people of St. Louis to give up the streets tO automobile owners. Does the possession of one of these machines make an idiot or a beast of the owner? Our lives would not be worth a cent with these death-dealing monsters running around every- where at 4 miles an hour. Trains run only 10 miles faster on their own tracks, and everybody knows where and when to look for them, but automobiles, which &re even more deadly by reason of their silent approach, are everywhere, — asi people from all sides without warning. 7 It seems strange that there hed eae beén laws passed ere this penalizing violators of the speed laws and forcing automobile owners to attach some automatic apparatus to their machines to warn one from a distance of their approach. If these laws had been in force the people killed by them would have been alive today. Many of us prefer a horse and buggy to an auto and we-all want protection. A. B. For the Humane Cause. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. In regard to cruelty and neglect of animals, par- ticularly the case of the sick horse so cruelly treated and killed, it is the duty of a police officer to inter- fere and to make arrests.; If they refuse te do this, report them to the Chief. I have never had one re- fuse. The Humane Society is handicapped. It has never received the financial nor moral support of this great city as it should. I have traveled all over the United States and feel safe in saying that in no large city do I find so many horses unfit for work or so little done for their relief. It is a disgrace to an intelli- gent and progressive community. If the people would uphold the humane workers and make the cause popular we would see some results. There should not be three humane societies. In uni- ty there is strength. This might be remédied by the Missouri Humane Society having on their board ot directors a few intelligent, discreet women. There fs no other humane society that I know of that entirely excludes women, The fault Hes with the Humane Society as much as with the public. Your editorial a few evenings ago with regard to the manner of punishing the owner of the horse was good. We should try to prevent rather than to pun- jsh, if possible. The Chicago Humane Society is compelling drivers to cover their horses. Can we not do as much? Many of the working horses stand @) day unfed and unblanketed. | A MEMBER OF THE MISSOURI HUMANE 80- CIETY. A Word for Cook. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. Dr. Cook should have the benefit of every reason- able doubt. That he found the pole how appears questionable, to say the least, but that he has de- liberately Med and plotted a swindle we shpuld not believe except on the clearest evidence. It is far easier to account for his action and for the character of the data which he submitted to the University of Merchants are still iasuing notices that the LETTERS FROM THE PEOPLE. the

—_— A DO NOTHING CONGRESS. From the Bosten Herald. Congressmen hurried away for the Christmas recess. With the election of Speaker of the House and the appeint- menj of committees cared for at the spe- cial session, the first menth of this sersion has passed with the usual rec- ord ef non-accomplishment. Seme time On the appropriatien bills undoubtedly will be saved through the better prep- aration of department estimates, but it is apparent that these bills will require the greater part of the first two er three months of the year. There will be lit- tle epportunity for Congress to consider mementous and far-reaching reforms, even if they should be recommended by the President. In the present state of mind in the natjon, it may be just as well that Congress is marking time, but {t would be equally to the satisfao- tion of the country if Congress would expedite its uecessary business and ad- jeurn early and go home.

ONE KINY OF RELIGION. Frem the Morrill (Xan.) News, He was the worst boy in schoel; she was the-teacher. She was angered by his stubbornness; he\was defiant. She teok him to the hall for punishment. ; Angrily she administered the penalty and—then somehow a great wave of pity for the bey swept over her. She looked at the worn ceat ef the little fellow; she theught of the frail bedy deprived ef nourishing feed: she thought of the hard and loveless home and ef the starved soul ef the peor kid, Tears sprang to the teacher’s eyes as the bey waited for further punishment. Then he saw the tears. His own eyes grew moist and everflowed. Thinking of hew the peor boy had no chance, in an impulse ef love she put her arms areund the bey and they cried together. That {ts religion. She and the boy both found it.

HE only thing constant about a man’s heart is its constant change. - This is the season when every time a woman kisses her husband he feels for his pocketbook ’ and grapples it to his heart with hooks of steel. One carat of engagement ring is worth a pound of promises. When love is done a man seals his heart, but a woman merely conceals hers. Before marriage we get the cream of love and then wonder why we have tolive on skimmed milk forever afterward. The only way to live happily with a husband is to let him know that you can live happily without him. A woman has no reason; but a man who wants to do anything he shouldn't do always has at least a dozen. It is unlucky to give a lover anything sharp—even a sharp answer. A married man never appreciates the symphony of love unless he is allowed to lead the orchestra while his wife plays second fiddle. A woman is such a helpless little thing that most men fancy tt would be impossible for her to vote with one hand and curl her hair with the other.. Oh, the vine that can cling is the tender thing That appeals to the masculine “oaks,” And a man prefers a cackling goose To an owl that may hoot at his jokes! Now, would you each be called a “peach”— Ror men love its counterpart— Be perfectly soft and sweet outside, And prefectly stony at heart!

ve the tree and fixin’s ’s we Uster; yet— Its “Baby! Oh, see, see, baby!” “Does baby like it? There!” “Did Santy bring lots of pitties?’’ “No, baby mustn't tear!’’ “Let babykins have it, brother’— Till a feller wants to swear. They've give him a lot more stuff'n He'll ever, evér use. An’ what do yuh think? It’s my stuff He always has to choose! An’ I have to hand it over For “baby” to abuse! He's played with my truly engine An’ put it on the bum; An’ he’s sat on my book of Injuna, An’ stuck a hole in my drum; An’ it ain’t such fun at Christmas Bince that there baby come. But they needn’t think they can ‘‘Santy’’ Him like they've “Santied” me; For I’m agoin’ to tell him . There ain't no Santy—gee! An’ mebbe he'll think he’d rather Go back to heaven—see? —Hdward L. Sabin in Lippincott’s. ‘*Merry Christmas.’ H O, God bless you—you who said,

O ail indications, Owner M. 8S. ‘Ro bison and Manager Bresnahan have de- ¢ided positively that Big Ed Konetchy is to remain a Cardinal for life. | . he baseball fans of St. Louls were worried a week ago, fearing the magnates.would be tempted to part with this big star, as New York was to have offered about: five players for hin ‘town Thursday and announced to his friends. But Koney himself arrived he had been assured by Bres- shan that St. Louis was to be his abode for all time. “here's little doubt that Bresnahan d have bettered the Cardinals for coming season by parting with Ko- nétchy.. But he ts absolutely sure that “has one of the stars of baseball in | ‘big first sacker and he decided to “keep ‘him at the cost of immediate.suc- c@ss. Koney is the foundation for a \ great team in ‘St. Louis. Around him -expectr to build a elu} that will some day win a pennant. Should he let ‘Koney g0, the foundation would be ‘gone. Jt takes but two or three such stars : a make a great team. Pittsburg is Chicago has Chance, Evers and ér.. New York had Mathewson, Daye and Donlin when it was a con- ender for the honors. Detroit had Cobb, “- ‘are men of ordinary ability, ae 1 be held up to: the limit of their e 2 ;. ow Robison and Bresnahan are sat- they have one star in Koney. § “ ‘Possibly in the next two years, they will able to find the other two stars, then they can go ahead and win | nts. Bresnahan himself is a great yer. It seems, at times, that Rube he * Ellis ts destined to become one of the coming trio of the Cardinals. But a prominent third man has not shown yet. Koney ig, in reality, a wonderful ball player. He is very young in years, and will not be at his best for two or three years yet.» He’s powerful of build, has a mighty throwing arm, and ‘best of all, an active mind. He has acquired good habits in his youth, and all in all, comes near being a faultless player. His steady improvement ever since he joined the Cardinals as a green boy, has led us to predict a brilliant future and long career on the diamond. A’ year ago, Pittsburg made a desper- ate effort to land him, but Bresnahan and Robison hung on, and shut their teeth tightly every time the tempting offers were made. This year, New York got after him, and again Roger and Robison were able to thrust“the tempta- tion aside. There may be those who think the magnates made-a mistake in not parting with this one star for four or five men of fair ability. But Bres- nahan is building deeply. Konsy is but a beginner, and with two or three great men to work with him in two or three years from now the Cardinals will be contenders. . Konetchy and Mrs. Konetchy have just returned from a two months’ trip to the Pacific Coagt, with Frank Bancroft’s National League stars, and will spend the remaindef of the winter here. . Yo Pluck Young Minor League Stars L. Hedges, owner of the St. Louis Browns, has decided that ;a base- I ‘scout is just about as important as : " baseball menager. But he has estab- Fished a unique method of, scouting. that ¢ thinks will bring better results to the > with less effort. His sch is to h ave numerous scouts, scattered - from Atlantic to the Pacific oceans, in- da of having ons man try to cover entire territory ln oné summer. “Thursday Mr. Hedges received a let- ola Joe Yeager, the utility infielder rn League last year. Joe told him y ¢ Sot unusual: ability and sug- that Hedges grab him at once for e Browns. Hedges decided then and here to appoint Yeager as the official for the Brewns in the Eastern ue territory.

off any player who afterwards makes good. Some of the best ball players in the big leagues today were brought to the front simply by friendly tips. Hedges believes a closer observation will be kept if he has paid scouts on the watch all the time. Last season and the season before, Jack O’Connor, who is now manager of the Browns, acted as scout much of the time. It was his custem to go through the country after midseason, visiting dozens of minor league cities and watching players in one or ‘two games. Sometimes he followed a player for a week. to get an accurate line on his ability. But it took a great deal of traveling and was not entirely sat- isfactory, for one could not spend suf- ficient time with the player. But on the other hand, with a scout working secretly im each one of the principal leagues of the country, he will be able te watch promising players much of the time from -the \beginning of the season on. He will know much more of that player’s strength and weak- ness than a man could gain in follow- ing the player for a day or two. John McGraw of the New York club hag been using the same scheme, only on @ small scale, for @everal seasons. He has friends in the South and on the coast. who are continually tipping him off to live players, and he has picked up’ one or two of his stars in

Trendall, the’ St. Louis light- weight boxer who defeated George Mem- sic in his last bout at Suburban Garden in this city, hag again started training at the Business Men's Gymnasium. A | young man named White is to be the “Pride of the Patch’s’’ opponent in a 10-round setto at Memphis on Jan. 165. Trendall is working hard, as this same fighter White is responsible for Abe At- tell being barred from Memphis boxing clubs. Some critics gave White credit for outpointing Attell in a recent bout at Memphis, while others declared that he had a draw at least. Then again it iwas charged that Attell was really un- der a “pull” and could have stopped White if he wanted to. The latter conclusion seemed to please the Memphis men best so they barred the featherweight champion from fur- ther participation in their boxing shows. Just how good White really is -will be demonstrated when he meets Trendall, as he will certainly have to show con- siderable ‘‘class’’ to avoid Trendall’s wicked right ‘‘in-drop’”’ to the jaw. —_———___q—_—_—- NELSON AND WOLGAST AGREE TO FIGHT LOS ANGELES, Cal.,.

Then. the American League can drag its 154 games out a bit and the ending of both leagues will pretty nearly correspond. I don’t think the cham- pionship series will be interfered with

MICHIGAN FEELS DISGRACE” OF FOOTBALL MAN'S MISTAKE Stagg Applies Knife to. Forward Pass in Game Ann Arbor School Is in Com- promising -Position Over Joy Miller Incident. Y ANN ARBOR; Mich., Dec. %4.—With his varsity letter gone, his election as } captain of the 1910 football team repudi- ated by the board of control of the?f university athletics, Joy Miller, the De- troit boy whose brilliant work on the Michigan football team this fall won him tha captaincy for next season, now faces disgrace and possible expulsion from the University of Michigan. Be- | cause of alleged misrepresentations and deception of the scheol authorities. The delay in the discovery of Miller’s culpability until after the end of. the football season has placed Michigan in a seemingly compromising situation with’ regard te the five colleges against which Miller played during the sea- son, and which has forced the board of control to apologize to Marquette, Notre Dame, Syracuse, Pennsylvania and Minnesota In recognition of his work in the Minnesota game Miller was elect- ed captain. To have to admit now that the star quarterback should not have played and was not even in school at the time the game was won is the bit- terest pili Michigan has had to swallow in many years. Technically, Miller’s alleged offense consists in his having misrepresented his standing to the eligibility commit- tee. He certified in writing to the com- mittee that he was a “bona fide stu- dent doing full work in a regular or special course,’”’ during the football sea- son. In view of the fact’ thet he was known to be a fourth-year man and was actually registered in the engineering department, no one bothered to look up his class record. The mistake was not discovered until the names of all stu- dents were being checked over in the by the longer schedule, but if it is we loffice of the secretary. can change ft.” Investigation developed the fact that ——— er ~S Old Bob Fitz Is Nearly Put Out by a Mongoose NEW YORK, Dec. %4.—Bob Fitzsim- mons, the pugilist, who is now in Aus- tralia, is having some sensational ex- periences there, according to a letter received here from Hugh D. McIntosh, the Australian promoter. The letter says, in part: “Fitz was nearly struck by lightning last Friday afternoon, and about two weeks ago was attacked by @ mongoose —a shnake-killing animal—and nad his arma and hands fearfully torn. He is getting on fine now, however. “I thought Fitz was done for when |the mongoose, which was a@ pet Fitz had recently acquired, attacked him. We were on @ snake hunt at @ place near Sydney.’

> ‘ qamieipantaaisiaraty - ae. y re ay : 2 wae te oe near bitmard Pit ee Ce

“The mongoose killed about 80 snakes, and then attacked a tiger snake; the latter got the best of him, Fitz thought he was going to lose his pet, and killed the snake by breaking its back with a long stick. The mongoose was rescued by Fitz, but the brute turned on fits and tore ‘his arms to pieces. We took him home in my auto, and the doc- tors fixed him up.” Fitzsimmons is scheduled to box Bill Lang for the championship of Australia, and a purse of $20,000 on Deo. 27. At the time McIntosh’s. letter was mailed the ex-champion was so far recovered as to lead his friends to believe he would be In first-class condition to meet Lang on the:date appointed. JEANNETTE HOME, PICKS SON TO NEW YORK, Dec, M—Joe Jeannette, the negro heavyweight | whe recently spies 5 ae Oe Sa CHICAGO, Dec. 24—Coach A. A, Stagg yesterday applied the knife to the forward pass in the\ cause of sane football. The University of Chicago mentor operated on the for- - ward pass rules with a view to les- . sening the annual toll of football deaths and injuries and will present the results to the national. experts at next Tuesday’s meeting of the Intercollegiate Athletic Assodlation in New York. Coach Stagg’s ideas for football revision, follow: “Not to allow pulling or pushing of the man carrying the ball in or- der to preyent mass plays and strik- ing with the force of two or three men in a compact body. “To remove the penalty of an uncompleted forward pass on the first and second down. Let the ball in some way the registration clerk fn the engineering office had registered Miller. Instead of enrolling in his classes, however, as he should have done, Miller never even visited them, though he attended football practice regularly. When Secretary Bird of the engineer- ing department discovered Miller’s de- linquency, he wrote for an explanation and received word that he had trans- ferred to another department. As Mil- ~_—— — an Basket Ball. The Missouri! A. C. Business Men’s Basket Ball League began its schedule Thursday night at the club ‘“‘gym” with a double- header, and, judging from the article of Game these athletes displayed, Dr. C. W. Bassett will have an abundance of excellent material from which to pick a five that will hold its owh with any of the best teams in the West. The games were hotly con- tested and with the interest manifested in their outcome as was shown last night, they should prove quite an attraction on Thurs- day nights, when all the league games are scheduled to be played. Six steams are in the league,.and at the close of the season the leaders will be awarded gold medals. while those finishing second will réceive. sil- ver medals, and third, bronze medals. The teams’ names are those of colors @hd each team has a suit the color of the name of his team, thus avoiding the possibility of a mix-up. In the initial contest the Whites defeated the Blacks in a well-played game by the score of 21 to 7. The team work of the Whites and the dy playing of Hendricks, the former Washington U. man, kept. the darker shade at a disadvantage throughout and they succumbed to Capt. Swann’s -five rather easily. land were the stars of the winners, being conspicuous in the point getting. Irland is a man in his 40's, which makes his work, all

ler had been thinking of taking forestry work, this explanation sounded plausi- ble. Thén the secretary tried unsuc- cessfully to get in communication with Miller.
