othér ftems showing “the amount ef business done, and of resources back ef it, make records above those of IM, 1908 or any preceding year. This reaches so far into everything else that it stops only at politics and what politics stop. This begins with coal, Coal receipts go up when manu- facturing is making new records. In 1909, for 10 months of the year, te- ginning from Pennsylvania on the east and between Washington and Boston on the north, coal has failed to make a new record. Mahufacturers “held up’’ in the first six nionths of the year, waiting on the new conditions they ex- pected to be produced to. order or in some other way from Washington. This cut down ‘the coal ‘movement. When what is moving during a year is meas- ured by weight, after being measured in dollars, coal weighs more on its ay- erages than anything else that moves. If its averages are lower; it seems to be lowering the totals of all business measured in tons. In spite of this, the volume of St. Louis business in tons goes up beyond that ef 1908. In nine months the city gained 128 tons in the thousand in {te receipts and 82 in the thousand in its. shipmentsover ita to- tala for 1908. Its total feceipts and: shipments for six months of 199 were 20,162,000 tons, showing that. the year was doubling on the twelfth year back. The indicated total volume of receipts and shipments for the full year to Jan. 1, 1910, ig 44,000,000 tons for comparison with not quite 40,000,000 tons in 1908. This: gain of between 7,and 8 per cent in the otal weight of freight, handled in and out the city, showed in profits, reported on closing payments for the year, at $20,663,803.67 as dividends and interest on the stocks and bonds of the larger corporations whose securities are listed. As a single item, this shows that @ great deal of money has been made in the city during the year, and that it has been a money-making year for busi- ness generally, much heyond expecta- tion. City Extended Its Limite. The business which is carried on through corporations with listed secur- ities is only a small fraction of the whole. Retail business and nearly all the wholesale “merchandizing” of the city ig done by fir..s which do not list securities for sale. On an average buei- hess of $53,000,000 in boots and’ shoes, $65,000,000 in dry goods, $70,000,000 in gro- ceries, $45,000,000 in tobacco products and in a dozen other lines, reported in average year at from $5,000,000 to $40,000,- 000 each, the profits are not usually re- ported. But on the test of all that is reported, there is a marked increase over 1908 of both profits and total values, As an increase in sales, it will prob- ably yun from 5 to 10 per cent in the several lines over the sales of 1908. This is indicated by close figuring from the main tests of total reported bank busi- ness, total reported freight movement, tetal reported car transférs,. total re- ported profits on listed securities and total reported investments in buildings and improvements. " On all these tests, 1909 turned out much better for good work and good results than was expected. The city was in its shirt-sleeves, so to speak, at the beginning of the year and the results show it did not stop to put its coat on. It went on growing, not enly at the usual rate, but above it. ft kept on spreading to fill the large vacant spaces inside the city limits. It continued to grow beyond iis limits, west, northwest and southwest, into Missouri, and with these directiong reversed into Tllinois. As part of what this means now for 1910 and later, the McKinley electric bridge is in plain sight across the Mis- sissippi, waiting to be opened when it gets rid of injunctions and adds the finishing touches to its frame work. It will be opened in 1910. With the work already done on paper and otherwise for the new Municipal bridge in 1906 and 198, the city has in its immediate fu- ture the ‘“‘boom’’ which belongs to closer connection with the steam roads and in- terurban electric systems in the Middle Western States east of it, with al) the extension of this électric development means at it crosses the river at 8t. Louis and extends in all directions like the ribs of a fan. As this belongs te 1910 and the decade {[t opens, the work of “electrifying” the country through in- terurban transit lines, the extension of the telephone lines and everything else of the kind, will necessarily become more end more centralised around &t. Louis, with the city as its focus, Great Bullding Year. This is one point only. There are oth- ets like it. Columns might be written on any one of them. The one point of progress in electrifying the country, while its development by steam is tak- ing @ new start also,

Zeaper’s Toll Was Heavy in Literature, Science and Religion. Every Nation Ldses Celebrities N Whose Places -Will Be Hard to Fill. In reviewing the phenomenal prog- Tess made in 1909 in all branches of in- dustry, religion, scfence and art a fact not to be overlooked is the great loss : pustained through the death of several ‘master minds. The grim reaper has harvested incessantly from the ranks Ae “ot genius and intellectuality, and every nation has supplied its quota. In the ’ list’ some effort has been “made to classify the roll of those who had achieved fame in the various walks of ife, and according to their country and profession. get It will be noticed that many had lived out the allotted Span, and then again “many had but reached their prime when stricken. It may be of interest to know that the principal cause of death was heart disease, while apoplexy comes “s | second, with debility and old age third. “Many well-known authors have been taken out of the. world of literature, -Jeaving places that may be vacant for years. Pro t among. them was -. Francis - Marior® Crawford, American * novelist, who passed away at Sorrento, ~ ‘Jtaly, at the age of 55, having won fanie as a descriptive story-teller.

Births for the 12 months were 15,234, which was 6579 fewer than ip 1908. The total for that year was the Nargest ever recorded in St. Louis. While the stork was indifferent to his public obligations, death was busier than ever before. There was plenty of work for the undertakers. The total mortality for 1909 was 10,498. That was 702 in excess of the deaths in 1908, ,and 150 more than the.total for 1905/ when the greatest number of deaths for any one year in the city’s history was recorded. The mortality in 1908 was exception- ally small, It was 124 less than in 1906, when the rate per 1000 was strikingly low. In 1908 the births ranged from 113 per month, in November, to 1506 in August. The hargest numberf of births reported In any month of last yéar was that for December—l47l. The fewest births for any month were 1044 in May. Deaths did not fall below 699 for any month of 1908. That figure was in Sep- tember. In 1909 the total for December was 667, but there were five months in which the total was more than 900. The monthly total In 1908 reached 900. but once—in January.

The flowers, will be in better condition,” advised Mr. Jarr. ‘‘Furthermore, that little remark about it being your funeral —I wouldn't advise you to make it when you get up to our place.” The two went to Chris, the florist’s, and selected a nice bunch of roses. When Chris was informed of the occa- sion they were to grace his sentiments overcame him. “Ha!” he said. “So many a da men da come and geet da flower, no for da wife. But thees be a fine a theeng!’’ So Chris added another half dozen roses to the bunch, with his compli- ments, and invited Mr. Jarr and Mr. hangle to the cafe to drink the health of the expectant recipient. The health of Mrs. Rangle was drunk on her birthday; the health of Mrs. Jarr in case she had a birthday; the health of Chris because the holiday flower trade had been good; the health of Mr. Jarr because his boss hadn't given him a Christmas check: the health of Mr. Rangle because his boss had re- membered him; the health of Mr. Ran- gle’s boss; the bartender’s health—every- body's health.

Mrs. Jarr Gives a Pleasant Little Birthday Party; the Only Objection Being That No One Comes to It Then the twain started uptown after fervent good-hyes to Chris and the bar- tender. They stopped in Gus’ place on the corner to show him the bouquet, Gus intimated that his Lena was mad at him, and Mr. Rangle insisted that he take half the roses to give his wife to square it. Gus took the roses, and then grew indignant at any man who would give away his wife's birthday flowers, either in part or whole, and ordered Mr. Rangle and Mr. Jarr to leave his place. They did. The cool air outside re- vived Mr. Jarr somewhat, and the thought struck him that it was far past the hour set for the birthday dinner to Mrs. Rangle, ang, that neither he nor the bearer of thé now halved bouquet was\in condition for further festivities. “Tell you what we do,” said Mr. Jarr. “Here’s Dr. Smerk's offish. Hesh a good feller. Let’s gettim to take us ‘ome. He can square it. Doctors know how to manage women; they know how to jolly ‘em ‘long.” So, Mr. Rangle. agreeing, ‘they got up the steps to Dr. amerk's office and rang the bell. : Dr. Smerk was in. They gravely pre- sented him with the flowers, and Mr. Jarr made a speech of condolence he had once delivered to the widow of a volunteer fireman. Dr. Smerk applied restoratives, in- cluding bromo seltzer, aromatic spirits of &mmonia and valerian. Then he said he would see them safely on their way. “That’s queer,” said Dr. Smerk, as they went up the stoop outside the Jarr apartments, somebody at the window. And now the light’s out.” They went upstairs together, however, and Dr. Smerk was astounded to be re- “I could have sworn I saw)

“drinking doctors.” His charges were torn from his hands and he was ordered to go “and fall down the stairs and break his neck.” Mr. Rangle and Mr. Jarr have been two great cowards. They haven't tried f square the good doctor, either.

For : reason, it seems likely the Browns : pom go along with few mistakes in that department of the game. - Jimmy Stephens, who has been a mem- : 25 ber of the local back-stopping staff for __ weveral weasons, is a thoroughly reliable _ boy and did more than half of the hard _ “work last season. He's ‘a little fellow, ~ but strong and fast,’ and though he has never been a thrower such as Criger on 3 - pulltven, still he is clever enough - to RS » the base runners close to the bags. ‘He has a habit of whipping the ball to “frst base if the runner dares too much, : sap in this way keeps him from getting Stephens is also a fair hiiter and a . ees base runner, During the first ty marks. -¥Yet it is such strategy as this that has helped make Criger, Kling and Sullivan great. The second catcher next summer is almost sure to be young Killifer. It is hardly likely a veteran will be pro- cured in trade. Killifer was tried out last fall on the last Eastern trip of the Browns and found to be a boy of great possibilities. He quite surprised the veteran players at times but of course, like all beginners, was a ‘pit timid and uncertain under the strain of playing with the big leaguers.

BOWLING Two hard matches of the individual city championship ténpin tournament are scheduled to be bowled on the Palace alleys Saturday night. Bruce Darling and “‘Bobby” Roberts wil! clash oh No. 6 and £6 alleys while. Hemer Sanders and Con Fuerman meet on No. 1 and No. 2 alleys, The Sanders-Fuer- man match should be an excellent one, Fuerman is shooting in ggod form at present and in his dast match on the De Soto-Pine Sanders also displayed fine form. The scores will not be big, but the outcome of the match is a matter of considerable interest. |

Darling has been a bit unlucky in- asmuch as he has been shooting good tenpins, but his opponents have always rolled about as good if not better than he was.able to do. Darling is perféctly at-home on the No. 5 and 6 runs and for that reason Roberts will certainly have to shoot mighty good tenpins if he expects to annex the odd game. Fred Langenberg has had the No. 5 rand 6 alleys‘ at the Palace shellaced. It was on these runs that the world’s record was established by the Regal Shoe team and also oh No. & and 6 where both Con Fuerman and Jules fact that Al Jellison was able to make 14 consecutive strikes on the alleys Thursday afternoon in his match with George Qualey, demonstrates the fact that the alléys are’ not “hard” by any \means.

LL ye baseball managers who are A building on the possibility of se- curing that notable baseball asset, Catcher John Kling of the Chicago Cubs may as well start negotiations for another keystone to anchor those championship hopes. For John Kling, unless the Nationa! Commission’s laws are but ropes of sand, and unless the antipathy of that body to one Charles Murphy of the Cubs, be mere sham, has about as much chance to play major league base- ball in the next three years as Bwana Tumba has to expectorate navy plug into the eye of an able-bodied “rhino’’ before killing him. Kling is twice damned in the eyes of the National Commission. Owgoost and company, by referring to the files, will find that Kling failed to report to his club, on the date prescribed by the commission; he also played independent baseball in Chicago against the advice of that body’s representative. On two counts he is Hable to blacklist for a minimum of three years. In the instance of his failure to re- port Murphy will claim Kling is exempt because of an indefinite leave of ab- sence issued to him by the ‘ Chicago club—an evasion which the commission will probably not fall for. In the case of his independent baseball venture there is no excuse, Thus Kiimg must be/punished or the power of the Natienal Commission be seriously undermined. Nor will Mr. Murphy’s arraignment of the Commis- sion help him in the Kling matter. Kling is out of big league baseball and the soonér Philadelphia and other managers arrive at this belief the sooner they can begin re-making plans for 1910, The baseball world loses a great catch- er in Kling; but there are none so great they can not be uispensed with. “Otto” and “Mark,” of M.

But though Jack wanted Casey, Hedges Was unable to get him, because the Little Rock Club, being angered at Hedges in taking O’Connor from it; schemed to beat him out of the young backstop. So it disposed of him to De- troit before Hedges could close a deal. Now it is known that Detroit is schem- ing to get an. experienced catcher to replace either Schmidt or. Stannage anid might be willing to let Casey go to St. Louis. Probably it takes more time to dse- velop a catcher than any other man on the team. It can hardly be expected that Killifer or Casey could go into big Jeague games next summer and do such ‘things as Criger, or Kling or Sulliva would do. A smart young fellow on second base, might become quite a star during his first year. Johnny Evers showed the old fellows a trick or two" before he had been in the big league one full season. But a catcher has so |much responsibility upon his shoulders, that he can hardly carry it all and ‘get to the top at once. For that reason, there may be many mistakes behind the bat next summer, but as long as the fans see some one there who is hustling, ey will be satisfjed.

FOR TRIP THROUGH RAPIDS. ° a eee Clever Little Chicago Fighter Learned From Best,Teach- ers of Old School. tricks and styles of veteran box- ers is the keynote of Johnny Coulon’s success as champion _bantam- weight of the United States, according to a Chicago writer. Since He was grad- uated from the amateur class in which he woh the title, he has boxed with George McFadden, “ommy Ryan, George Seddons, Jimmy Barry, George Siler and many others. By these mesures Coulon has in- creased his knowledge of the sport. He has come to that stage where many critics Took upon him: as the cleverest man of. his weight since the days of Jimmy Barry. If the latter were at his best and should meet Couldn in a 2%4-foot arena one of the most scientific battles ever fought undoubtedly would result, it is said, and there would be little-to choose between them. Judging from his explanations on de- livering, blocking, stepping inside and away from blows he is a master of at- trek and deferise. He does not believe in useless actions in the ring. It was the avoidance of thess unnecessary moves that enabled the old-timers to box 50 and 60 rounds’ at a fast clip. This has been taught to Coulon tn his frequent sparring matches with vet- erans of the ring. Siler Taught Htm Much. In speaking of his friendly set-tos lwith the veterans Coulon said that the . . George Siler was the cleverest of them all. Other veterans were unable PQ exicxs with and ¢ studying the Ito land with consistency on Coulon’s nose, but Siier had no difficulty in find- ing the spot with either a left or right hand, Coulon says. He :dds that Siler had a style that was wondérful. Every tnmove he made was right to the point. That is something Coulon learned from him, and in his matches today he prac- tices it against his opponents. chief adviser and judging from the moves of the little champion in boxing he has been well drilled in nearly every fine point of the game. He says. that he rarely overlooks an oppoftunity to catch a man asleep, having a style of stepping in with either left bor right hand en opportunity presefits. At the sune time he has a good defense with His leads. “I box with an ojd-timer every time I get a chance,"’ said Coulon, “because there always is an opportunity to’ learn something new. I have studied boxing since I joined-the amatéur ranks. + worked so much and hard ana know almost instinctively when to step } away or step in when I am fighting a man.

George Seddons has been Coulon’s J-COULON A PUPIL OF THE OLD MASTERS I do not resort to them unless my an- tagonist comes too roughly. “I came on the trick. of tripping a fighter when I met Edwards in New York. In one of the rounds I had my left foot on the side of his.and as I swung and caught him on the side of the head, his foot being tied, he toppled over and I was creditéd with a knock- down. This seemed to me a good plan and I attempted it again, but I put my foot up too far and made the trip too plain and I think he turned over three times. The referee came up to me and asked me if I wanted to kill tte fellow. I have improved in cleverness at least 100 ‘per cent in the last two years and will match my skill, speed and punch against any man of my weight in the world. “They say Monte Attell is a great fighter. I think my match with him is a certainty and probably will be held on the coast Feb. 15, for the championship. James Coffroth. was to have’ come through Chicago and see me regarding it. I will see him on his way back. He gays that he has signed Attell to make’ 115 pounds ringside, which is the limit for bantamweights. I can make that easily and less if necessary. I expect to show him what clean, straight punch- ing is like and the power that goes with it. I very seldom swing, as Siler said that a man who tries to swing does not class with a fighter who can step in and punch straight from the shoulder. ‘The latter will beat a swinger to it. 7 — BOWLING Two hard matches of the individual city championship tenpin tournament are scheduled to be bowled on the Palace afieys Saturday night.
