Co, Game rs “New York World.) MADRID, July 381.—(Via Bayonne, Southwest France)—Catholic laymen are talfffig an activé part in the present ag- itation against the civil power. This aggression is incited by the Roman Catholic primate of Spain, all the pre- lates and high clergy, the rural clergy and all the religious orders, especially the Jesuits. Cénsequently the Government has déemed it expedient to reinforce strong- ly: the garrisons in the Captain-Gener- alry of Catalonia, of which Barcelona is:the capital and Gen. Weyler of Cuban fame is Captain-General. And rein- forcements have been added to the gar- risgns in Navarre and in the. three Basque provinces, especially to those in the capitals Bilboa, Tolsoa and Vitora. These precautions have been taken to enable Premier Canalejas and the min- isters to keep their eyes open to possi- ble active intrigues by anarchists, So- cialists and advanced Republicans, both iri Catalonia and Biscay. The governors of Rilboa and San Sebastian have been instructed to refuse permission to Cath- olies to hold meetings and not to reply ta threatening or insolent petitions. Situntion Before King. Premier Canaiejas says he went to Sin Sebas‘ian. where is the royal sum- “mr residence, and laid before King Al- fonso évery phase of the present situa- tien before’ he and Queen Victoria started for a three weeks’ visit to Cowes, Isle of Wight: | Spain's position in ‘the dispute with the Vatican can be described accurately ond on the highest authority. Spain is not conscious of having done anvihing more than to defend the rights arid prerogatives of the civil power, as represented in Gecrets which had been published upon the .discussion with the Vatiean and ip other projects which had been foreshadowed in the Cortes. In Spain's view thé Vatican chose, in #8 Jast communication from Cardinal Merry del Val, Papal Member of State, to suspend negotiations until the Ma- drid Government should withdraw most of its measures, whicn the Pope con- siders an infringement on the rights of the church, pending negotiations — in whieh Madrid and Rome were already engaged. is Has King’s Confidence. . Senor Canalejas openly tells his friends he will persist in_his policy, because he k4s the King’s confidence and the sup- port of all Liverals and Republicans. The leaders and members of both these parties are equally determined to sup- port the Government in asserting the ‘supremacy of the civil power in legisla- tion which, they insist, does .not inter- . fere with religion or the righfs of Rome in spirtuel matters, but which will en- : force the common law and fiscal reforms ‘ om the religious orders of both sexes -_/ ana reduce and limit their numbers. or The Premier does: not anticipate any serious consequences. He relies on the army’s loyalty and he believes political paxgttos will not attempt to fish in waters. so troubled. ‘With Catholics at Rome expressing ~ hepes that Don Jaime, the Carlist Pre- tender, may raise the standard of re- yolt and the Catholics of the Biscayan provinces rise in insurrection and with the Socialists in Spain threatening dis- order, the Imparcial, which has hither- ta been unfriendly to Premier Canalejas, ranges itself upon the side of the Gov- eynment in the pending conflict with the oon Vatican. The Liberal press in general eéntinues staunchly to support the Cab- fret, which has been left a free hand to earry through.its policy by the depart- use of King Alphonso and his Queen for giand.

words sung in her ears—“his wife.” How the world honored the title? A quivering: denial spoke within her breast. The world—how dared it stand in judgment against her? Scorns World’s Criticism. That was it exactly. How dared it? The quivering denial within her breast quivered a little less each quiver, and by the time the artist returned and said something to her about taking a week’s vacation with him on a sailboat, she was ready for the ocean of the world’s contempt, or the frog pond of the world’s indifference, or any other place where a splash of recklessness was possible. The invitation was only for a week. The artist could not stay any longer. His wife would not let him. Yes, he had a wife. Careless of him, wasn’t ic? But otherwise, how could a story have been made? Well, the reader is permitted to see the sailboat start out, as quietly as Dr. Cook’s expedition to the Far North, and that is all for 18 long years. Then, footlights gnd spotlights and an orchestra in fulf dress. Swis-s-sh go the silken skirts. Who is this right in the center of the stage? Why, it’s Elsie, the famous young ainger and of the artist’s model, to be sure. And who was her papa? Guess. Elsie, we learn, a8 s00n as we get behind the scenes, loves the leading man of her company. There is no particular reason why she shouldn’t. Propinquity is Cupid’s one best bet. If you don’t think so, look through the daily marriage license list and see how many pairs of fond hearts are from the same house or the same city block, And just as the lamb loved Mary 20 because Mary loved the lamb, so the leading man vice versas all of Elsie’s sentiments toward him. Pres. ently they are at the “confessing” stage, and the one thing Elsie has to confess is that she can trace her par- entage only on her mother’s side. “What!” cries the matinee hero, and a moment later he is admitting to her that he, too, has a lineage without benefit of clergy. Now obviously, for this pair to go away sailboating in the style of the “Foreword” incident of 18 years be- fore would be entirely convention- al. For them, the really unconven- tional thing is the good old conven- tional state of matrhuony. And they agree to enter into that state without avoidable delay. Just at this point the artist of the “Foreword” comes back into the story, meets Elsie and tells her the story of the sailboat cruise. He didn’t really mean to go, he explains to Elsie, but——

actress. Who is Elsie? The daughter “Let us go away,” she begged, “just for a day, a week. Take me on the water, far away from the noisy pavements. Let us seek the island of love and moor our boat to its shore!”’ I could not resist her pleadings; we slipped away and were lost to the world. We drifted away from the haunts of men; the great waves rocked, us into an oblivion of such perfect joy that we have never

Just what bearing all this has on Elsie’s highly commendable purposes, and how affairs subsequently progress, the reading public will have a chance to find out when “‘Love in the Weaving” appears in the book stores and gets it- self duly excluded from the Public LI- brary next month.

So believes Judge Hitchcock, and so he announced when he paroled, George Wilcox, after sen- tencing him to serve five years for em- bezzlement. “You are to pay $25 each month to Mrs. Campbell, until the entire $400 which you took from her is paid,” said Judge, Hitchcock in telling Wilcox the terms of the parole. “If you fail in a single payment you will be sent to the pénitentiary. I shall require regular reports to make sure that you are keep- ing up the payments.” “l’ll pay it all up, Judge,” said Wil- cox easerly. Wilcox kept $400 of a total of $700 which his friend and former roommate, Daniel Campbell, intrusted to him to put in a bank to the credit of Camp- bell’s mother. He put only $300 in the bank. The $700 was Campbell’s entire recompense from the Missouri Pacific Railroad for the loss of both his legs

train. He settled the case with a claim agent, out of court. ) Campbell was in the hospital at the time the money, seven $100 bills; was paid, and hence got Wilcox to do the errand for him. The conditions of Wil- cox’s parole were suggested by Mrs. Campbell, who told the Court the pris- oner had promised to pay the $400 back if he could keep his freedom and his job. Under these circumstances, the Court decided it could forego the sual objections to being used as a collection agency. MAX ZACH STRIKES DISCORD IN MUSICIANS ASSOCIATION Reduction of Soloists to Ranks Causes a Stormy Meeting. Director Max Zach’s ambitica to im- prove the harmony of the St. Louls Symphony Orchestra produced discord in the Musicians’ Mutual Benefit As- sociation, which hald a stormy meeting Monday afternoon at Aschenbroedel Hall. Several weeks ago Zach obtained per- mission from the directors of the union to reduce four sdloists to the ranks and import four artists to take their places. Leopold Brackaert, who had played first flute for 18 years, protested to the union against his reduction, and on his com- plaint the meeting was called to take the directors to task. After flery speeches the directors were indorsed by a vote of 113 to 91. Zach and his assist- ant, Frederick Fischer, were present.

Beckmann in the Sec- ond Ward, These are all regular committeemen, and if they are re-elected Chairman Kiel will be retained at the head of the local Republican organization. The insurgent committeemen. have de- cided that even if they are successful in gaining contro] of the committee they will not elect Amos Seaman, &® Howe man, chairman. The insurgents are ready, at Mayor Kreismann’s command, it is said, to throw siowe overboard, Few Openly Support Howe, A few of the insurgents like Nick Po- lito of the Fourth Ward boast that they are Howe men and are proud of it, but a majority of them have arrived at the conclusion that the Howe influ- ence ig a bad thing in local politics. Philips W. Moss, Prosecuting Attor- ney, who is running for City Commit- teeman against Rosenbaum in the ‘Four. teenth Ward, is an out and out Howe man. Polito and Moss would be about the only Howe men in the committee, it is declared, if the insurgents are. successful. Gus Frey's supporters in the Seventh Ward declare he will win over Henry Neun. However, Neun is advising his friends to bet that he willl be elected by a substantial majority. Nat Goldstein, who has been a mem- ber of the Republican City Committee for several years, is said te stand the best chance of breaking the regular slate.

Goldstein Opposes Knuittel. Goldstein is a candidate for clerk of the Court of Criminal Correction and his slate opponent is Ferdinand Knittel, also a member of the Republican City Committee. Alex M. Lewis is also con- sidered a strong contender for clerk of the Criminal Division of the Circuit Court. Henry M. Echterhoff is the slate candidate. There is comparatively little interest in the Democratic contests. The fight between Edward A. Feehan and Hick- man P. Rodgers for the nomination for Probate Judge is the most exciting. Feehan’s friends say he will ‘beat Rodg- ers and break the slate created by the Democratic City Committee and its auxillary. William H. Allen, one of the anti- slate candidates for circuit judge, is also making a strong race and his friends say he may pull through. Many Judicial Candidates, The Republicans are having some con- fusion over the judicial slate. Seven candidates have been indorsed for the five nominations. Judges Fisher, Kin- sey, Withrow and Homer were all in- dorsed by the organization, but Withrow was not on the slate prepared by the Republican Advisory Committee. The other candidates on the slate are W'li- son A. Taylor, Leo & Rassieur and Ben- jamin Kliene. It was predicted at head- quarters Tuesday that Judges Kinsey, Fisher and Homer and Wilson A. Taylor would certainly be nominated, with Withrow, Kiene and Rassieur fighting it out for the fifth place on the ticket. Taylor, according to all forecasts, will. . lead the ticket. The ward committeemen were all busy around the polls Tuesday morning. Philip Rosenbaum had automobiles and carriages taking his supporters to the polls in the Fourteenth Ward. The anti-Howe Republicans are mak- ing @ determined fight in the Twenty- Seventh Ward to beat Charles Laxton, the Howe candidate for committeeman. The anti-Howe men are supporting Johp G. Primus. Jones H. Parker, who is managing Primus’ campaign, said Tues- day that Laxton would be beaten by a big majority. If Primus is elected, the Kiel faction will gain a member of the organization and the Howe faction will sone one of its most loyal men. Practically one-third of the voting strength of the city is disfranchised at this primary through failure of the dis- franchised voters to have their names transferred on the registration books. An opportunity for registration wil] be given before the general election. Howe’s Auto Kept Busy. Jeptha D. Howe’s automobile, which was presented to him by the members of the Republican City Committee after the last campaign on his “retirement,” was early in evidence carrying workers and voters to the polls to oppose the candidates put forward by the “regu- lars’’ of the committee, who gave him the automobile. When the machine was presented to Howe, his re-entry as an active in- surgent, opposed to everybody and ev- erything favored by the organization, had not been counted on. 1600 POLICEMEN ORDERED TO PRESERVE ORDER AT POLLS Sixteen hundred patrolmen reported for duty at 56 a. m., Tuesday, ready. if necessary to work a 2-hour stretch. Most of them will work ‘until 7 p. m. Chief Young in an automobile com- menced a tour of the city at 6 a. m. Every police captain was at his desk at 56 a. m. issuing orders for the policing of his district during the primary elec- tion. The 1¢ lieutenants began circling their districts at 6 a. m, and every sergeant and detective got out and hus- tled for the “good of the service’ be- fore two-fifths of the city’s population was awake. This was the beginning of Young’s first important day as Chief of Police. When he took his oath of office a few months ago he swore he would give St. Louis an honest election. Tues- day he reiterated that promise. At some pulling places where trouble was anticipated no less than five blue- coats were stationed. Sergeants were scattered thickly about the various pre- cincts and as there were not enough men to go around special officers were detailed to act as sergeants. -In a general order issued Saturday night Chief Young gave the captains to understand that they and the men under their command would be held responsible for the slightest irregularity at the polls where it is found a police- man could have prevented it. “Fair play” was the slogan of the Chief’s order. Policemen on duty at the polls were to see that each and every citizen was allowed to vote. No rowdyism was to be tolerated, the or- der said, and any act of dereliction on the part of a policeman would mean dismissal from the force. Tuesday the Chief repeated his order orally and in plainer language,

Special to the Post-Dispatch. BEVERLY, Mass., Aug. 2.—No state- ment was forthcoming from official quarters here today regarding th® meeting between Senator Winthrop Mur- ray Crané and Secretary of the Interlo™ Ballinger in Minneapolis yesterday. When it was suggested to the Whit® House officers that Senator Crane may have felt called on, in order to bring about party harmony, to request the Secretary of the Interior to resign, the only answer was that Senator Cmine would have to be asked about that Phaseof thematter. When Senator Crane came to see President Taft Friday an attempt was made to keep his visit secret. Secretary Norton was plaintly worried, when he found that Senator Crane’s presence in Beverly had been detected. The Senator himself had ean secrecy a condition of his com- ng. at. It is known that Senator Crane was sent for to go to Seattl® on an im- portant mission for the President. The meeting with Secretary Ballinger at Minneapolis: suggests a modification of the original plans and justifies the an- nouncement which followed the inter- view here that Senator Crane “might not go all the way to the coast.” Crane’s Mission Important. Secretary Norton admitted today there was more to Senator Crane’s mission than had appeared in the newspapers. It was said that Crane’s visit to the President was instigated more by ¢er- tain party leaders, including the secre- tary to the President, than by Presi- dent Taft himself. The President has received many let- ters suggesting that Secretary Ballin- ger, because of attacks made on him, was proving an embarrassment in the making of plans for the coming con- stood by Secretary Ballinger through ali his troubles and still believing in him, has refused to heed these com- plaints, They have had their effect on others connected with the administration and the party, however, and it is reported here that certain of the leaders may have taken it on themselves to handle the situation. reckoned with, however. He has re- peatedly declared that he would not re- sign and among his friends there is a strong belief that he will not resign unless directly asked to do so by the President. This, it is declared here, the President will not do. Following Senator Crane’s inter- view with the President, the report. spread that it had to do mainly with Ballinger and that a trip through the West to survey general political con- ditions would be adjunct to the prin- cipal mission. he idea that Senator Crane was to meet and deal with Secret Bal- ‘linger was so strongly denied by Secretary Norton that the report fin- ally came to be regarded as errone- ous and was so treated here until yesterday's ig oy in Minneapolis, which seemed to throw a different

| light on the situation.

passed him in silence, not reconniaes him without the facial adornment which had been his pride for 20 years. Frederick loved that mustache, for it stuck to him close? than a brother, and those who knew him best knew that nothing less than a catastrophe, a catac- lysm or something of that sort, could have separated him from it. Why, therefore,“was it gone? Since it was gone, who got it? And under what circumstances? And why? Yes, and more impressive still—how? , These were the questions all up and down Real Estate Row. But there was none to answer. Frederick himself would vouchsafe no explanation. The thing gave promise of becoming a mystery. At last it became rumored that Fred- erick, having unbounded fafth in Jim Jeffries, the ex-hope of the white race, became so enthusiastic that he made a wager with Sidney Schiele and bet his moustache against Li'l Artha Johnson, just like the farmer who, away back in 1896, swore never to shear his whiskers until William J. Bryan was elected President, and who still is cheating the barber. Denies He Made a Bet. Frederick’s rash vow is said to have been made in the presence of A. R. j Schollmeyer, but Frederick ‘warmly de- nies that he ever made “such a fool bet.”’ Anyway, the question still is, if this bet were made, is not Jack Johnson en- titled to the Frederick mustache? If so, did he get it? If not, what became of it? Did Windy Fritz, the barber, keep it as a memento of the fight?.

Those who have become prematurely gray or who ‘are troubled with scalp or hair diseases, such as falling hair, dan- druff, baldness, itching scalp, etc., know full well the humiliation that they cause. There is no need, however, of such con- ditions. These troubles can be quickly overcome by Crystolis, the new drug re- cently discovered at the Creslo Labora- tories at Scranton, Pa. Since its dis- covery, a little over a year ago, Crys- tolis has been found to contain marvel- ous roperties for producing a new growth of hair. In subjecting it to va- rious tests in the worst cases of bald- ness, dandruff, itching scalp, etce., the results obtained by the experimenting chemists were considered almost miracu- lous. In every case it was found that ;. where ers were any hair rootg left it would pr a new and =*ltxuriant owth of hair in from four to six weeks’ me. Gray or faded hair was oft re- stored to its natural color in from’10 to 14 days’ time.

Lawn Party Toesday Night. A bright group of Ternple place chil- dren have arranged a lawn party for the benefit of the Pure Milk Fund to be held on the lawn of Mrs. William N., Tivy, 1379 Temple place, Tuesday night. The ingenuity of these little friends of the babies is shown in the programs they have prepared for their lawn par- ty. The programs are all hand-made, gotten up with the aid of pen, ink and scissors. The printer’s craft is nowhere in evidence, Each program is illustrated with a number of pictures of babies, wards ut the Pure Milk Fund, which the Temple place place children clipped from news- papers and magazines and attached to their programs with paste. One of these unique but neatly illustrated pro- grams reads: “Please come and help us save the babies. Every penny helps. Pure Milk and Free Ice. Tuesday, Aug. 2, 8 p. m., at 1379 Temple place.

JEALOUS WOMAN AILLS PHYSIGIAN; ENDS OWN LIFE Wealthy Pittsburg Doctor Slain in Home by Member of the Half-Weorld.* Special to the Post-Dispatch. PITTSBURG, Pa., Aug. 2.--The bark- ing of a dog’in the palatial Stewart home at 5604 Penn avenue attracted the attention of neighbors who called the police early this morning. The police broke into the house and found the bodies of Dr. Emert C. Stewart and Edna Wallace. They had died from bul- let wounds. Investigations made by the police to- day indicate that the physician, was a member of an old family and a leader in society, had been killed by the woman, who was a member of the half- world and proprietor of a resort fre- quented by wealthy Pittsburgers. She is said to have amassed a fortune of $506, 008. Doctor to Have Married Soon. Dr. Stewart was to be married Aug 10 }to Miss Alice Pauline Simpson of Laws, Vy. Invitations for the wedding were ré~yived today. The evidence indicates tyat the Wallace woman, long a friend of the soclety doctor, killed -him in a jealous rage after a desperate struggle in which the man, of somewhat frail physique, was unable to cope with the woman, who was an Amazon strength. Dr. Stewart's wedding suit, which was brought home from the tallor fome Cays ago, was torn almost to ribbons in the room where the bodies lay in , the woman having evidently tried. to. tear the clothes up in her rage. The doctor in his ef- fort to save the Clothing and his own life had overturned and broken almost everything in the room. Dr. Stewart, who had entree to the best society and was a leading club- man of the city, was the favorite nephew of D. C. Stewart, a man of great wealth who left Pittsburg for Virginia a year ago and turned the old Stewart mansion over to the young doctor of 30 years. The police early this rising morning as- serted that they had not the name of the young woman to whom Stewart was art, while visiting the woman a week ago, slapped her face when she men- tioned the name of his intended wife. Had Made Up Quarrel. “T’'ll get you yet,” the Wallace woman is alleged to have said to Dr. Stewart, with whom she was madly in love. Some nights ago he ret ed to her place and they later motoréd away together happy. It would seem that the pair went directly to the Stewart mansion. Dr. Stewart was shot through the back of of the head and through the back. who. 2 OTHER NATIONS EXPERIMENT Wilh AIR EXPLOSIVES England and France Follow Lead of Post-Dispatch and New York World. Cable to the Post-Dispatch and New York World. Copyright, 1910, by the Press Pub. Co. (New York World.) Aug. 2.—The experiments Special LONDON, with explosives dropped from aeroplanes to be undertak n on the initiative of the Post-Dispatch and New York World by the United States* authorities, are at- tracting great attention among the air men and artillery experts of Europe. At the British army maneuvers, Capt. Dickson, artillerist and aviator, has been directed by the War Office to carry out a series of tests of tue same kind as the Post-Dispatch and World had ef- fected. The aviation department of the French army also is making similar ex- periments in connection with their an- nual army maneuvers, Carlyon BeNaires, a retirec lieutenant of the navy and the most prominent un- official naval expert in England, said: “I think the Post-Dispatch and New +ork World deserves praise for taking the lead in maki-¢ practical tests of possible uses of aeroplanes in warfare, though I don’t think that at the present stage of the aeroplane development they are a serious meance in naval warfare. The chance is slight that a bomb dfopped from a fast traveling aeroplane at a high altitude will hit a warship, as no accurate means have yet been in- vented to find the range. Explosives, too, must be specially invented so that they may do more than mere surface demage when so dropped. “T think it is a great pity that so much attention is being paid to the mere sport- ing uses of the aeroplane instead of to such vitally important practical applica- tion of its possibilities as the Post-Dis- patch and World is obtaining.” MOTOR AT $4 PER HOUR.

MALEER SAYS ATHLETICS HAVE EDGE OVER RED SOX IN HARD RACE FOR FLAG WHICH IS NOW ON IN THE AMERICAN RO ER AND “HIS TRIBE OPEN CAMPAIGN IN THE EAST WITH SERIES AGAINST BILL DAHLEN’S BROOKLYN SUPERBAS MZ ALEER. PICKS i £28 e BFP BBS he - ATHLETICS. AS | FLAG WINNERS -_ — | es Former Brown. Manager Also Likes Boston Red Sox and Gives Tigers an Outside Chance to Repeat. ANAGER JIM McALEER of the Senators of Washington, the Browns’ current foe, picks the Athletics of Philadel- phia to win the American League pennant with the Red eal McAleer considers the Athletics and ‘e Reg Sox about even up, but because the Matkmen have a lead of five games and with the season past the -half way mark, he likes the White Elephants the better. The Browns’ former manager holds that Hughey Jennings has the best team in the American League, but because of a élump at an inopportune time is all but out of the race. He gives Jennings a @hance to come on, as he has in for- mer years, but says the going will be prétty tough for the Freckled One. Although occupying third place to the Athletics and Red Sox, the Yankees of New York are not considered serious- ly by James of Youngstown.

But the others have a big lead on Jennings and I don’t look for him to overtake the others unless his pitch- ers get to going good again.

McALEER. "HAT was a strange tale sent T out about Walter Johnson last Saturday. I read where my big pitcher was forced to let up on his speed because Caicher Beckendorf’s hands were crippled, forcing him to retire, and because Catcher Henry couldn’t hold the big fellow. That’s all wrong and is an in- justice to Henry. He’s a young fellow, just out of college, and never had any baseball experience outside of his playing with his school team. Johnson has a world of speed and shoots them over fast, but Henry was able to handle his curves, benders and straight ones. He was hit on the arm by a foul tip late in the game, which proba- bly caused those pencil pushers to say that Johnson’s speed affected him. one of the stars of the game and hfs» loss to the team hurts. With the Washington team this trip is Catcher Henry, formerly of Am- herst College, whom McAleer says will become one of the best receivers in the business. Henry has filled in nicely since joining the Senators, as Street and Beckendorf have both been an the crippled list. Henry's battery mate- at Amherst was Pitcher McClure. He probably had the best record of any of the col- legians. McAleer said he had McClure looked over but his scout believed him too gmall. The New. York Amer- icans signed McClure, but later turn- ed him over to an Eastern League club. McAleer will probably do consider- able experimenting on the present Western trip. The failure of Bob Unglaub and “Doc” Gessler to hit up to their 1909 notches is blamed con- siderably for the failure of the Sen- ators to be occupying a higher birth. if either of these players hit as was expected this season, it is believed the Washingtonians would not now | be in the six hole.

O’Connor yanked him, and sent Lake to the mound. Gessler gacri- ficed and Street rolled to- Wallace. With, two gone and a man on third, Lake fanned Reisling for the final cout. The Browns made only five hits, but they came at the right time. Truesdale's triple was the youngster’s second wallop of like proportion in two days. He made the first off Harkness: in the opener of Sunday's double-header. Hartzell turned a stop off Conroy in the fourth that was a sensation. The “Widow” stung the ball, but Hartzell leaped over to third, stuck out his bare hand and held on, It took a triple away from Conroy. Pitcher Otey of the Norfolk club Joined the Senators Monday and pitched to Mc- Aleer’s batters in the preliminary prac- tice. He's a right-hander. Originally Schaefer wag in right and Gessier in center. The sun bothered the German, though, and after the fifth in- ning they changed positions. Conroy wag aiso affected by the sun’s rays. He droped two fly balls. One let in a run. Another star fielding play was the eatch of a foul fly from Killefer’s bat by Hartzell, Roy had to chase over to the corner of the grandstand for the pop. “Gabby” Street got back in the game after being out with bad hands. His re- turn threatened to be of short duration. In the third he chased a foul from Stone's hat, fell and crashed into the grand stand concrete wall, Bob Spade happened to be slated at the spot and got the benefit of the collision. Spade’s presence prevented Street from receiving a certain fractured skull. WHAT THE WEATHER MAN SAYS OF THE BASEBALL OUTLOOK AMERICAN LEAGUE.

There are other laps than the Athletics’ catcher that have made good as receivers. After Monday’s game one is forced to remark: “There goes Waddell, coming back.” But which way is he headed? Q. E. D.—Hobble skirts are not neces- sarily for those who care to go the pace. Speaker is still being heard from in the race for the batting championship auto. McGraw qualified for a housemaid’s job at the expense of Boston. At least he made a clean sweep of the series. Genial James McAleer made so much noise on the coaching line this season that his throat was injured. Probably we will next hear that Dave Nicholson has been forced. to retire from athletics, owing to the injurious effects ws running Marathon races. Whom the Shoe Fits, T seems that the title of quitter might have been applied by Hughey Jennings to his own club before passing it along to the Athletics. That’s a proceeding on Jennings’ part known: in this country as getting the other fallow’s goat; but the only part of the Angora disturbed seems to be the odor. Just when everybody else is coming back, poor old Jeff l.ad to fall down. The Cubs are “‘here,’’ Karger is hanging around again, Jim McAleer is lifting his club out of the mire, etc. But then no- body has drugged the Cubs, McAleer et al. Just now it begins to appear that either Terra Firma or Thespis will put out Jack Johnson before Sam Langford gets a crack at him. The stage has won many a ring battle—for the other fellow; while auto driving against Bérney Old- field seems to consist largely in boring holes in earth’s crust, with the aid of the driver's frontal bone. The Old. Old Story. OUND CITY’S rowing coach is VI against sending crews to the Na- tional regatta because he thinks they can’t win. But St. Louis will never be the scene of another national re- gatta if its crews don’t reciprocate and attend the national meets in other cities. The old story in America—it’s win or drop out. It drives hundreds of young men out of atiletics today be- cause it is inculcated that if you are not a winner there is no use of culti- vating athletics. No such idea as com- peting for the recreation, the play and the love of the game seems to prosper here. Bovkowmd manage it attterentiy abroad. Can You Beat It? CENE I: Grand stand, Sportsman’s S Park. Enter Rube Waddell with a month’s water wagon record to boast of and a long previous contrary history to conceal, with 34 years’ of life behind him, most of which were spent in buffoonery; with the reputation of having thrown down his employers and team on occasions toognume¢drous to mention; and with a very recent clem- ency of the police court to chasien him. Spectators rise and cheer long and loudly, First Fan: That’s the Rube. @ wonder when right. Second Fan: Yep—there’s only one Rube. He may go bad, but he comes back and shows them all up. Third Fan: There he goes warming up —look at them shoots, eh? Fans Galere: Oh, you Rube! Scene II—Grand stdnd again, day. Enter Joe Lake, sober, industri- ous, hard working, most consistent man the team has and always with the clhb’s interest at heart. He walks to the pitch- er’s box in the ninth when Rube is be- ing taken out. Buzz from the specta- tors, Chorus of Fans—Who’s the pitcher, Mr. Umpire?

As, for example, Bresnahan and King Cole. McAleer seems to keep his team mov- ing nicely, despite the numerous changes he has been compelled to make in his line-up since the start of the sea- son. The team fielded poorly Monday, but has been holding its own hitherto. McAleer has certainly shown up the regime of Cantillon, for at the start of his reign Washington had spent exactly $2000 to reinforce the club. Whatever advance the team has made is, beyond any cavil, due to the attention of Mc- Aleer, But James has some fair pitchers to help carry out his plans, while O’Con- nor’s men have not been going with much reliability. ————— Hedges is putting out a pretty penny in the ehdeavor to get together a club for 1911 that can make a fight. If he is successful, it will be little short of a miracle, for baseball teams are not to be bought by the mere flashing of mon- ey; but by careful and gradual upbuild- ing. You could not buy outright any club in either league tday, no matter how lowly, for $350,000; and the cost of a pennant team would be incalculable. Money makes the mare go in the mat- ter of almost everything save that of = a baseball team pre amt Field Must Beat Long in Clay Court Tourney Roland Hoerr and Drummond Jones, winner of the Central States Tennis Championship, were retutmed victors in both of their matches Monday in tlre first day’s play of the National Clay Court Tournament, being held at Omaha. Jack Hughes of Omaha was Hoerr’s first opponent in the preliminary, and the local interscholastic ‘‘champ’”’ won, 7i—5 and 6-3, while Drummond Jones defeated Harry Koch 6—8 and 6—1. In the first round Jones drew F. Davis and eliminated him by the same score as he made against hig opponent in the preliminary. Hoerr took two straight from 8. 8S. Caldwell, 6-3 and 9—7. The ease with which Melville H. Long, the Pacific Coast player, eliminated a member of the Davis Cup team of 1909, his opponent, somewhat impressed the rival title seekers. W. T. Hayes, the former Illinois State champion, failed to get in action, but the experil- ence of this player should see him well near the top before he is eliminated. Drummond Jones, besides Long, at- tracted most attention for the first day’s play, but the St. Louis man, who resorts more to taking advantage of an op- ponent’s weakness than to. brilliant stroke play, will hardly be judged cor- rectly until he meets some of the strongest men in the tournament. It is under fire that he displays wonderful coolmess and rallying power. Second Round Important. The second round of the tournament will have an important bearing on the final outcome, as several of the stars of the tournament come together. The entry list, which contains players from 15 states, is considered rather remark- able, as Chicago is holding the national doubles tournament this week. —_—- —— TT YANKEES LOSE SERVICES OF CHASE AND VAUGHN CLEVELAND, O., Aug. 2—‘*Well, Chief, you came pretty near to needing a new first baseman’ and pitcher,’’ was of the New York American League Baseball Club, greeted George Stallings at League Park. Chase and Pitcher Jim Vaughan arrived together, the first baseman bruised and shaken up, and the star left-hand twirler supporting himself with a cane as a result of a railroad wreck in which they had a) aarrow escape from death. A limited train on the New York Cen- tral, 14 miles east of Utica, crashed into a disabled engine Sunday night. But for the fact that the engineer of the limited saw a warning fiagman in time to partially check the speed of the train, it is believed the passenger train sults far more serious. a lision.

BOXING LEAGUE IS-NEWEST FAD Game Safeguarded, Like Baseball. SAN FRANCISCO, Aug. 2.—Organiza- tion of an association’ that will exercise the same influence and control over the glove contests that the leagues do over baseball is the scheme of A. B. Mof-* fitt, an Oakland fight promoter, who yesterday began drafting letters to other California promofers, calling for a meet- ing to be held soon in this city for the purpose of forming such an association. Moffitt says he is working on a plan of organization and by laws which he will be ready to submit to the pro- moters, if the meeting is arranged. “I believe,” he asserted, “that by organization we can clear away all the troubles of the fight game and put it on the same solid basis of baseball, track athletics or any other sports. —_———_e———-> | Baseball Sideligh{s One fault with the Browns’ play is the failure of the batters to run out their drives no matter where they are hit. A fly ball usually sees a Brown batter slow up going down to first. This cost Al Schweitzer an extra base Mon- day, when he slowed on his lift to Con- roy. ‘“‘Wid’’ dropped the ball and al only made first. Later he was tossed out stealing. The White Sox, not the Cardinals, will get Slugger Meloan of the Springfield (Three--I League) club. He has been purchased by Owner Comiskey for a price said to be $4000. Roger had a chance to land him, but passed him up. Jim McAleer has cut out coaching. The Washington manager doesn’t appear in uniform any more, but directs his team from the bench in citizens’ clothes. Jim says anybody can get out on the lines and holler. Bill Dinneen and Bill Evans are run- ning the Browns-Senators games. It surely is a treat to see them work, fol- lowing the funny exhibitions by the Na- tional League boys in blue. The two Wiliams are in the first flight of high- class umpires. Infielder Stark of the Dayton (Central League) team, whg had a trial with Cleveland last fall, has been purchased by Brooklyn. He joins the Superbas after the Central League season. J. McGraw has nothing on Art Ray- mond. ‘‘Bugs’’ has come out with the announcement that he is through with the Little Napoleon. Manager McAleer of the Senators gives the ha-ha to the tale that Hughey Jennings refused Walter Johnson, Char- ley Street, Clyde Milan and Jack Leli- velt for Ty Cobb, Tim Hurst, who is umpiring in the Eastern League, is evidently “going back.” The other day Jack Dunn, manager of the Baltimore team, actually “sassed’’ Timothy and wasn’t put out of the game. The Newark (Eastérn League) team, is drawing 12,000 and 16,000 crowds on Sundays. The tunnel under the Hudson River gives New Yorkers a chance to reach Newark in a few minutes. Manager Hughey Duffy of the White Sox, looked over ‘Mickey Corcoran, the Buffalo player, on the Chicago team’s trip West. Claude Ritchey, the former Pitts- burg and Boston second baseman, has retired from baseball. He was with the Providence( Eastern League) club. Uncle Ben Shige now regrets that he didn’t build a larger park. With the Athletics leading the race, the capacity of the Philadelphia park is now often taxed when regular teams call on the Mackmen. ——_—-@—_-- CARDINALS AND BROOKLYN PLAY TWO GAMES TODAY NEW YORK, Aug. 2.—The Cardinals and Superbas inaugtrate their five- game series this afternoon with the for- mer leading the locals by three games.

BY ED. W. SMITH. * CHICAGO, Aug. 2. Silence is the thing most desired from James J. Jeffries by his real friends at the present time. Jim’s alleged latest outburst about there having been “‘some- thing wrong’ with the fight meets with sad looks from his old pals and a laugh from those who were stung into betting on .him in his recent fiasco with Big Casino. Maybe Jeff didn’t mean it exactly the way it looked in type. The world knows there was something wrong, but the world also is pretty well convinced that the fault entirely was Jeff's and that nobody else had any hand in putting him out of business when the afternoon of the great nationa: holiday rolled around. 7 If Jeff cannot understand just what was the matter and is harboring any dark suspicions or has a single fact upon which to base anything dark, let him out with it right away and let’s look into it. Otherwise Jeff is merely making a bad case a little worse ‘by hinting and then relapsing into silence again. The silence first without the hints would have been the right tip for the big fellow. No Chance for Jeffries. There isn’t a chance in the world of Jeffries ever making another fight with any degree of success. The big black man ‘“‘had his goat,’ if ever there was such a thing, and has it yet and ever will have it. That's what was _ with the battle. Jeffries trained too long and had too much chance to think over the whole situation. When the picture in his mind’s eye of that big black man whip-. ping his brother Jack drifted into his mind 20 times a day as the hour for facing the awful thing drew near, the goat took his departure for Big Casino's training camp and there remained. It is idle to talk about another match ee) - JEFF DENIES —"] YARN. aa Aug. 2.— ged at aul Sipe tial for on, duly between the big men. The situation that brought about their first meeting was ideal to set the entire cfvilised world by the ears. The battle was fought and the result, while a murder- ous disappointment and cruel source of humiliation to the white race, was absolutely true and beyond cavil or question. The better man won that day—the better man that day and the better man five years ago or five years hence. So what's the use of talking. Johnson has it on Jeffries and probably always did. Surely he always will. There wasn’t a thing false about the Reno; fight excepting that ‘‘mental collapse,’* or what you may call it. No dope was used in Jeff's food or water and there wasn’t anything fixed or faked. If there ever was a hint of such a thing it went glimmering long before it came to a point where there was anything tangible about it. Everything possible was done for Jeff- ries and he got the best of attention every minute of the time he ‘was in training. He wouldn’t box enough in his training, but that was an exposi- tion of his ego, which probably he re- grets sincerely now. Perhaps the ego is still so large that there is no regret.

ST. LOUIS POST- DISPATCH.

LITLE JOURNEYS IN PATHS OFF THE MAIN NEWS ROAD

TOPEKA, Kan., Aug. 2.—Thirteen vials containing tuberculosis and diphtheria germs addressed to Dr. Sarah Greenfield, hiacteriologist of the State Board of Health, disappeared from the United States mails last Friday and a search fir them resulted in finding the vials, broken and empty, in an alley in the west part of the city today. ‘The package containing the vials was Fat Folks. Stifle in Hot Weather Is it any wonder that the fat people “stifle in the hot weather? They are nes full of fat on the inside. The “lungs demand great quantities of air “each breath or beat of the heart, .s0 ‘that the oxygen in the air can purify “the blood and send back to the body to i'maintain strength and vitality. Most iigeople do not use one-half the capacity eof the lungs, which are nothing more ‘or less than some 800,000,000 little cells ‘ilike toy balloons, which, when they are Linot inflated with air, lie flat. If the fat that crowds the lungs reduces the “capacity of the lungs to .take in air ‘y you will see what an awful time the «blood and body has of getting its oxy- igen or vitality. The reason of this fat -is that the digestive machinery of man “is not working right.~ Marmola Tab- lets, that have created such favorable comment among physicians and fat peo- ple by thelr wonderful ae ions in stop the y from are barmiess and

7 taken out by the postman but was lost or stolen before he delivered it. The Board of Health officials decline to tell exactly where the vials were found, fearing to rouse the neighborhood. There were enough germs in the vials to depopulate the State, but physicians think there will be no serious results, as the broken vials were found where the direct rays of the sun shone upon them. Sleight of Hand Trick Enables Prisoner to Leave Jail, METUCHEN, N. J., Aug. 2—How a sleight-of-hand trick unlocked the gates of the County Jail here and permitted the escape of a prisoner became known today .with the arrest of Erhart Maick, wanted by Metuchen authorities as a fugitive from justice. Maick had served about half of a long term for burglary when he took French leave a few days ago. Nobody was able to explain how he got away until he told the story of his escape when re- arrested. He said he had been a favor- ite with the keepers because they en- joyed his ready wit and he eften en- tertained them with parlor magic and sieight-of-hand tricks. On the day of his escape he got into conversation with one of the keepers and offered to show the man & new trick. While the keeper was watching the swift motion of Maick’s hand, the prisoner unhooked the bunch of keys from the warder’s belt, removed two of them and returned the bunch to its place without being detected. An hour or two later an oppertunity to use the keys offered itself and the prisoner made his way out and escaped to New York. He will finish his term in a solitary cell aad the keepers will not be allowed to consult him for in- structions in parlor magic. -_—_— New York Wants Farmers to Join the Police Force. NEW YORK, Aug. 2—The Commis- sioner of Police wants farmer boys on the force, so the mental test of police- men will be made less severe. It was explained in making the announcement that this does not mean that farmers are any less intelligent than anyone else, but merely that the catch questions on the streets heretofore asked will be eliminated in the case of candidates from out-of-town. The Commissioner admftted -with a smile that some of his new policemen may be lost on post, but he suggested that they might take maps with them. Hero’s Pocket Picked as He Rescued Drowning Man, NEW YORK, Aug. 2.—It cost Francis Maher just $100 to save a man from drowning. Maher, who is a chauffeur employed by the city, was standing at the water front when he heard a yell of ‘‘Man overboard!’ While a hundred on- lookers cried for help, Maher jumped in and soon had the drowning man safe. When the excitement was over and after the rescued man had disappeared, 2 had been. picked. Girl Hetd Prisoner Between Rocks on Mountain. GEORGETOWN, Colo., Aug. 2.—For two hours. Mabel Lynn was held a pris- -oner yesterday by two rocks some dis- tance above the city, while two men dared death te rescue her. She had fallen between the rocks while ¢limb- ing the heights. Calls for help directed the men to her and kept Georgetown in a fever of excitement. When Miss Lynn was finally taken from her perilous position by George Layden and John Hart, she was uncon- scious and had to be carried down the precipitious mountain. She will recover. Porpoise That Weighed 800 Pounds Is Speared. ROWAYTON, Conn., Aug. 2.—Frank R. Stevens speared and succeessfully landed in Long Island Sound a porpoise which weighed 800 pounds. It required the steam hoisting apparatus of the oyster boat Mabel Stevens to lift the porpoise. Importers of Equine Beauties Hold Horse Show on the Ocean. NEW’ YORK, Aug. 2.—Thé trip of the Atlantic transport steamship Minnewas- ka from London just ended at this port was enlivened by a horse show, the first of its kind ever held on the high seas. The vessel brought a consign- ment of 226 fine horses, Including some which will be exhibited at the Interna- tional Horse Show in Chicago. The owners of nearly al) the animals were passengers, and the idea of hold- ing a herse show came about when the men got togegher te talk horse. A ring was made with a short run to ex- hibit the gait of the entries. The judge was Edwin Hobson, an Illinois horse- man. The horse owners on board included Samuel Bell and William Bell of Woos- ter, O.; Worth Dunham of Wayne, lil.; J. Hamilton and Mr. Hawthorne. Canada; FE. Hobson, Clifton, Tll.; W. Vv. Bewis, Wayn 1; W. E. Pritchard, Ottawa, Canada, and W. H. Truman of Bushnell, Tl. The most noted of the horses aboard the Minnewaska was Shelford Pride, a winner of many prizes, owned by J. G. Truman. %

She disappeared from her home, 6096 Cabanne avenue, which is about a block from Gardner’s residence, after she had been served with a sub- pena to testify in the receivership pro- ceedings.

WOMAN PHYSICIAN DECLARES CIGARETTE SMOKING RUINS HEALTH OF NEW YORK WOMEN Dr. Eugenia Hancok Says Col- lege Girls and Business Work-. ers Have Habit. om the New York ne Laeees Wine poot-itapateh. NEW YORK, Aug. 2.—Dr. Eugenia Hancock, for six years physician at the Hotel Martha Washington, and now the regular attendant upon the bulk of the members of the Colony Club, in an interview says that wom- en of New York are drinking and smoking themselves into insane asylums ad living such unhealthy lives that their children were des- tined to be degenerates. The woman physician, warming to her subject, Bays: “All of the fashionable women that I know have the cigarette habit. Col- lege girls are taking up cigarettes. Business women are coming to smoke, Of course it is a well-known fact that there have been many inveterate smokers among society women for years. At the Colony Club cigarettes are regularly passed around after meals. “The foolish society woman thinks she is a good sport when she be- comes half intoxicated and smokes cigarettes, so she learns to drink whisky and beer and cocktails. Her nervous condition becomes shattered and she resorts to drugs. Poor, silly creatures! they do not even respect the Sabbath, but continue their din- ners and their dances, thus breaking the great American tradition of the Sabbath’s sanctity.” ~~ - Aomnenjelds L.

' PA MAY APPEAL TO LAW Property Owners Declare Their Signaturés Were Se- cured by Deceit. When 26 property owners in the vi- oinity of Grand and Laclede avenues signed a petition that “amateur basge- ball games’? be permitted in Handlan’s Park, they did not take careful notice of the personal! appearance of the dark young man who was circulating the pe- tition. When the “amateur” games began a few days later and the players and spectators proved to be negroes, and when yellow banners appeared on the park fence announcing that the place was “the only negro summer garden in St. Louis,’”’ the signers realized that a light mulatto, with close-cropped hair, had been mistaken for a white man, Now the neighborhood has declared war on the negro resort in its midst, and at a meeting held Monday night at Oliver V. Hall’s home, 3635 Laclede avenue, Attorney Peter T. Barrett was employed to conduct a legal attack on the place. Another meeting will be held Wednesday night on Hall's lawn. Denied Signing Petition, Several of the men who attended the meeting Monday night said they had not signed the petition but that their wives, in their absence from home, had signed for them, supposing that the games would not be different from those frequently held in the past by white teams at the park. A. few notioed, f was stated, that the man with the petition was a negro, but these supposed he had been employed te ciroulate the petition and it did not occur te them that the privilege was being sought for members of that race. Only one of the 27 signers, a saloon keeper, now says that he realized the real purport of the petition. He has “stood pat’ on his signature, while the other 26 are ready to sign a rermon- strance annulling the petition. Ready to Appeal to Law, A remonstrance will be signed at Wednesday’s meeting which will be used in an effort to break the lease of W. H. King, a negro editor of 2138 Market street. The police records show that King has acquired the use of the grounds. “If we are not able to pro- hibit the use of the park by remon- strance, “Hall told the Post-Dispatch, “we will try to stop the show by in- junction. “I wnderstand that King, the lessee, has Gecilared that if there is any objec- tion to negroes using the grounds, he and a company will purchase the site and make it a permanent negro amuse- ment place. We have a remedy even in that extremity, and if it comes to a showdown the property holders in the vicinity will demand that the park grounds give way to improvements that rightly belong there. “Several streets and alleys should have been cut through Handlan’s Park long ago, and if there is a disposition on the part of the Handlans to thwart the will of a majority of the people, we shall demand that the preremnente be made.” Lease Not Yet Closed. E. W. Handlan, who manages the park grounds, told a Post-Dispatch reporter that he had no knowledge that negroes were to conduct a summer garden there. “A jease for carnival purposes has not been closed,”” he said. “There are to be Saturday and Sunday ball games be- tween negro teams. I was not aware that the negroes had decided to use the park for the summer for other purposes, as they were not sure they had enough money. “If they decided to take the grounds we will have to let them have them. All we are concerned in is to see that they obey the laws 72 ordinances while using the park. Many Attsacteen Billed, Banners on Handlan’s Park announce that it is “‘the only negro summer garden in St. Louis; that a show will be con- ducted daily and nightly, commencing Aug. 6 and continuing until Novem- ber. The poster heralds the largest dancing pavilion in the west, a midway show and Blue’s Military Band. Such attractions as the “Double Woman,” | Ortental. Village, Giant Devil Fish, old Plantation, Gypsy Camp, and an Elec- tric Theater are featured. Among those remonstrating vigorously is Superintendent James Ashbrook of the Methodist Orphans’ Home, 8533 La- clede avenue. He declares the negro carnival would distract the boys of his home throughout the summer. The home faces Handlan’s Park. Ashbrook communicated with Miss Belle Baker, first directress of the home, Monday. She advised that everything be done to try and keep the negroes from the. neighborhood. Miss Baker is a niece of Samuel Cupples, president of the home. She will communicate with Mr. Cupples, who is now out of town, to enlist his aid in fighting the proposed plan. SS —_—— VDaketa Park Association to Meet. The monthly meeting of the Dakota Park Improvement Association will be held Wednesday night at Hedwig’s Hall, Compton avenue and Pulaski street.

EASY .TO GET FEVER Youngsters Who Have to Tiptoe to Drop Money Are Seen Gaming. Men, women agpd boys gamble nightly on the exoursion steamer Grey Eagle, one of several boats where gambling is allowed. Slot machines, so contrived that the odds are against the player, are set along the boiler deck ef the boat and on the main deck, and throughout the ride are surrounded by eager gamesters. The Grey Dagle is run by the Colum bia Excursion Co., of which the offi- cers are: William Thorwegen, presi- dent; Charlies M. Berkley, treasurer and Il. J. Thorwegen, secretary. It makes public excursions Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday and Friday even- ings, and on the other evenings usually is chartered. Its capacity is 2000 pas- sengers, and ft rarely casts off from its wharfboat at the foot of Olive street with less than half that number. When the boat starts the slot ma- chines are not in evidence. They are preduced when it approaches the south- ern city limits on its downstream trip, and they are hidden as it passes the foot of Pestalozzi street on the return trip. , Fever Is Soon’ Acqutred, On the Gray Eagle only 5-cent ma- chines are in use, They offer five plays —on the red or the black, either of which pays two to one; on-the yellow, which pays five to one; on the orange which pays 10 to ene, and on the green, which pays ® to one. If there were none but red and black triangles on the wheel of chance, the player would have an even breag with the “nouse.” As it is, he plays in what is known, in race- track parlance, as a “greedy book.” The boat carries three women, one of them elderly, to make change for the players. They eit behind pine tables, on which ate 5-cent pieces in stacks of two, five and fen, to facilitate the change making. Tt does not take long for Gray Eagle passengers to get ‘‘the fever.”’ It can be seen fn their flushed cheeks and bright eyes as they stand in front of the machines, losing their nickels. Loss Is Certain, A Post-Dispatch reporter who stood with the knot of boys and men arora one of these machines and kept count of the losses and winnings estimated that the machine was gaining at the rate of $8 an hour. In the three hours of play during that trip each machine, at this rate, “earned” $27. Thete were 12 machines in operation, making a probable profit of $324- from them. Young women persuaded their es- corts to lend them quarters and dimes in order that they might piay the machines. in some instances, play- ing the red and black with luck, they won for a time. It was invariably true that In the end they lost what they had won and more. The hw of chance may not work out in half a dozen plays, but it is immutable in the long run. That the player wil! lose ultimately on these machines is as certain as that the sun will rise the next morning... Rut “the fever’ blinds the eyes of the gamester and urges him to risk more monéy., No Attempt at Secrecy. A sign at the Grey Hagle bar avers that ne liquor will be sold to minors, and so far as the repofter’s observa- ‘tion went this law was not violated. But there is no such prehibition with. regard to the slot machines, Young- sters so eamall they had to tiptoe to reach the levers were playing. them. They were getting, in many instances, their first taste of the fascination of gaming. City efficfals and Government effi- clals shift from one to another “the burden of responsibility for the falflure to stop river gambling. No secret is made of it on the Grey Hagle. Except for the precaution of storing the slot machines in the hold as the boat ap- proaches the wharf, the gambling goes. on in frank defiance of the law.

SAINTLY BILLIONAIRES. The latest Rockefeller sermon on “Forgive- ness” completes a course on the Conduct of Life, Wiich shows Cleveland Sunday-school children how to become snaccessful and saintly billionatres by the Rockefeller method. ‘After borrowing enough money to start on, the good child wii] get right with heaven 59 as to win on the deal. Then he wiil have money of hisown. By xeeping right with heaven he can capitalize and make his money work for him until he bas his biiliou. Then the unrighteous wii) be- gin troubling him. They will fine him and make him “pay court costs in a way which might endan- ger the salvation of ahyone but a saint. In the case of a righteous billionaire, the persecution only increases his sanctity. He becomes a meek and humble martyr. tie forgives his enemies and asks heaven to biess trem with a better mind. Then he can add fines and costs to capitalization. He can also put up the rate of interest on money which the unrighteous are obliged to borrow. The unrighteous are so numerous that an increase of 1 per cent in the interest rate soon gives a meek and suffering saint with a billion, another $1,000,000 to loan at the market price of money. Capitalize, control the market, forgive every- body everything, keep right with heaven, do good and lend at the market price of money after fix- ing the price. This, dear children, is the way to suffer and be strong in martyrdom after becom- ing righteous billionaires in spite of the laws, against monopoly. = SS |S i i Dr. Crippen will now perceive that he made two mistakes; he should have killed his wife in Italy, not in England; he should have fied to the United States, not to Canada. = = a ww

iw JOHN G. CARLISLE. ‘ . Had John G. Carlisle died in the old days of the Cleveland regime, his death would have left a great vacant place in the political sky. The whole country would have wondered where to find a suc- cessor to fill it. Now he will pass to the tomb almost without even a perfunctory attention. Such is the fate of those who retire from office and live in veteran obscurity for a decade or 80 before they die. Still Carlisle merits the admiration of the Ameri¢an people. He was a great man and did a great work. He will fill a large place in the American history of his time, and will be accord- ed much of the credit due to the statesmen who conducted the affairs of the country during the transition period that intervened between the Civil War and the era of new issues that began with the great campaign of 1896. He goes to his rest full of years and honors. His work was done. The Augusta Journal says Maine Republicans are united as never before—probably in each oth- er’s hair, the same as elsewhere. HOW OUR MILE IS POISONED. 'The Post-Dispatch Pure Milk Fund saves the lives of hundreds of babies who would have begn

_ poisoned by being fed milk containing from 10,- 000,000 to 16,000,000 deadly bacteria to the cubic inch. The Fund should be supported and made as broad and effective as possible. But why should any milk consumer in §&t. Louis be placed in peril] of disease or death be- cause of the present methods of handling much of the milk sold here? Why not change the methods until it shall be practically impossible to buy poisoned milk? A great deal of the milk used In St. Louis is brought into the city in cars that are not iced. Because this milk is rushed in early in the morning, it is supposed that no ice is necessary. But much of it is milked over night, and by the time it reaches the city it is germ laden. After it gets here it is divided among a large number of branch agencies for distribution. Here it is kept surrounded with ice. But, in the poorer parts of the city it is distributed to cus- tomers who either bring their own bottles or take it away in bottles on which a deposit is charged. In either case, the milk is poured from a measure in a hurry, a great deal of it running over the germ-covered outside of the bottle, which is then wiped with a cloth which has been’ used to wipe dozetis or scores of dirty bottles. There is little or no care exercised to insure cleanliness {mn this branch of distribution. pressed into the neck of the bottle. po Ea at ' r As for the bottles left by the drivers of wag- ons, they are stoppered with a disk of cardboard, This disk forms a hollow in which dirt collects. And the outside and rim of thé bettle are frequently in a filthy condition. There is nothing sanitary or acientific about this. _ All bottles should have caps which hermetically seal the contents, and the existing unsanitary vethod of distributing milk at branch agencies auld be abolished.

The dull length of the “model platform” adopt- ed by the Republicans of Ohio is enlivened here and there by a phrase that strikes. One or two of them indeed are palpable hits. If the thing were recited on the vaudeville stage as a mono- logue, they would certainly bring a laugh. Al- most: any American audience “would tumble to them.” For example: The platform says: “The tariff has been revised in accordance with Republican doctrine.” The word “doctrine” was well chosen. it is a neat avoidance of the fact that the tariff was not revised in accordance with the pledges of the Républican national platform, nor with the assurances of the Republican candidate for the presidency. Such side-stepping is as clever as a circus act. ‘ ‘ Another example: The President is commended for the indictment of persons engaged in the cotton pool, “formed to raise the price of one of the necessities of life in every American fami- ly.” Here we have a true masterpiece of assur- ance, a straight-out charge that the increased cost of manufactured cotton goods is due to the price pald to the planter for raw cotton, not to the joker in the cotton schedule. There are other such phrases, but none that equals these two; though, of course, recognition must be given to humor of the assertion thai the tariff “did not raise the rate of duty on a single common food product.” Surely that’s a whop-, per. = = * ~~ rT Undoubtedly, Missour! needs redistricting, but according to the Supreme’ Court it must be done through the action of the Legislature. The Re- publicans, before changing districts, must contro] the General Assembly. If they are good they may do it.

=] = ae POLICE PENSIONS. One of the amendments to the Constitution te

State Legislature to provide for police pensions in cities of 100,000 inhabitants and over. The pen- sions are to be paid in case of disability from dis- ease, [njury or age. The pensioned police are to be members of a reserve force subject to any emergency duty which they are able to perform. The amendment should be embodied in the Con- stitution so that the Legislature may be empow- ered to act. A wise system of police pensions would be beneficial. It would raise the standard of service. Moreover, police officers after years of service, or after suffering disability in the service should be provided for under the law. ll i rr This is no nightmare that Spain is having; she is waking up.

=] = — SS BETTER IN SOME THINGS. When Chief McCarthy of the Canadian police arrested Dr. Crippen at the instance of Inspector Dew of the London -police, he said: You are my prisoner. Anything you say will be taken down in writing\ and may be used against you at your trial. | 3 Imagine what an American Chief of Police would have said and done to Crippen and the girl! Mystery, third degree, sensational traps, alleged conspiracies, suspected accomplices, fatal admissions, forced confessions. In England, where the rights of accused men who may be innocent are rigidly respected, there are prompt trials and many convictions. Here, where a suspected man has no rights that the police respect, there are prolonged delays and few convictions. They do some things better in England than in the United States.

ie Ohio Republicans, their platform says, are in favor of the Federal income tax amendment. But the Republican Ohio Legislature failed to rat- ify the amendment. Is it still the party view that two promises equal one performance? = = rv LEE IN STATUARY HALL. The trouble with the act creating Statuary Hall in the Capitol at Washington is exactly as Attor- ney General Wickersham points out. It estab- lishes no central authority charged with the ex- ercise of judgment and taste in the acceptance of contributions to the collection. One result of this has been the accumulation of the most incongruous assortment of human effigies to be seen anywhere on earth. Some are gigantic, some are diminutive. Some are of mar- ble, some are of bronze, some are of full lengths, some are Of busts only. Almost every variety of American dress is depicted. There are immortals and there are nobodies—the one placed there in obedience. to the matured judgment of the whole people and the others as a result of wire-pulling and solicitation. Virginia has produced greater men than Rob- ert BE. Lee, but none who was more beloved. Why should there now be a protest against his statue in the rotunda when 30 or 40 years ago there were 40 or 50 live Confederate Brigadiers in the two wings of the Capitol? = = rw Even if there were 40 reasons for lynch law, Texas would overdo the thing. = = i INCUBATED BEEF. A new wail of unhappiness has arisen. Beef packers are moaning because beef breeders are sending “baby beef” to market. It is alleged that the cattleman is no longer content to wait for his beef cattle to develop in the ordinary course of nature. He stimulates them to over- feed and provides them with overfattening foods so that he may get them to market early. Thus we get soft beef instead of solid beef. The whole product tends to be a sort of tenderloin. But what else is to be expected? Prices are high, labor is dear, feed is costly and hurry is an American habit. Besides, if we are to keep beef in a refrigerator, why not produce it in an incubator.

The Alabama Supreme Court has recently ren- dered a decision which. again emphasizes the need for reform in judicial procedure. A man convicted in the lower court of the theft of hides fro a railroad car was freed by the higher court because the indictment did not specify

Methods of Arrest. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. I wish to commend to our local police depart- ment the “lawful” and cons‘derate methods of the English police in making arrests of - persons suspected of crime, as evidenced in this morn-

pen and his woman companion. The dispatches say that Inspector Dew of Scotland Yard warned his prisoners that any statement made by them would be used as evidence against them. His consideration for Ethel Leneve in anticipating a fainting spel] by having the stewardess of the ship ready with a glass of brandy will be a terriflo: shock to some of the policemen in our American cities, and especially St. Louis. The ocnduct of Inspector Dew !s such a contrast to the inhuman brutality of police in American cities in arresting men and women that one is per- suaded that our boasted freedom. and respect for the rights of men is a mockery. Our ‘police departments are infested with brutes who, without provocation or excuse, beat up men and“women in making arrests and, after trey dre arrested, by methods still more brutal and lawless, wring confessions from them, which in many ingtances are falsely made for the sake of escaping punishment. Our Federal and State constitutions both say that no person shall be compelled to incriminate himself. Why should not our police officials respect these constitu- tional provisions? How can any person be ex- pected to respect the law when big, thug police- men abuse and maltreat men, suspected of crime, into making confessions? GLENDY B. ARNOLD. Bryan’s Goose Eggs. To the Bditor of the Post-Dispatch. No, Mr. Harold Lord Varney, Mr. Bryan is not the goose that laid the golden egg. He is not even the goose that laid the silver egg. Mr. Bryan is the goose that has brought disaster upon the Democratic party by trying to hatch out a lot of bad eggs of other people—Populists, Socialists, etc. RUSE. + ite - Picture Show Operators. To the Bditor of the Post-Dispatch. Being a frequent visitor at the odeons through- out the city and not a chronic kicker, I would like a word about the operators. Are good oper- ators so few or is the management to be blamed? I have in several shows noticed boys—mere chil- dren—running machines. Now, Mr. Manager, is it right to risk the lives of the many men, women and children who attend your show just to save a few dollars a week? You should have an ex- pert electrician and they should be licensed men, and then the public could go in and see a show without fear of their lives. 8S H. Ll, Too Many Bow-Wows. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. What has become of the dog catchers? For goodness sake tell them to visit Cook avenue, between Taylor and Walto.. That neighborhood 's overrun with all kinds of dogs—bulls, collies, fox terriers and the humble cur. They range over these blocks day and night and keep the neigh- borhood awake for hours with their howls and barking. The favorite amusement of several of them is to chase after every bicycle and auto- mobile that passes; some bad accident is going to happen if this is not stopped. One of them has a pleasant way of springing up at every person that passes, trying to snap bundles out of their hands. On the block from West End to Marcus avenue there are about 10 dogs. I hope the dog catchers will read this and get a move oa themselves. SUFFERER.

POSTAL BANKS IN MASSACHUSETTES. From the Boston Post. It will be extremely interesting to watch the development of the postal savings banks in this State, now that several postmasters have taken the preliminary steps to hav’ such institutions as @ part of their offices. Who will become depositors of these banks in & commonwealth where there are a great’ many savings banks already? And who will be content with the 2 per cent to be paid by the Government when the more famillfar institutions give 3% or even 4? Are there many citizens of Massachusetts who would be influenced by the confidence afford- ed through the name of the United States? Pos- sibly foreigners might be so impressed, yet very many of them now know the stability of the reg- ular savings banks and patronize them. The postal savings banks were not primarily in- tended for thickly settled states. They were, of course, not to compete with the old-line savings banks. They were to be a convenience to the re- mote districts whose people could always be near a postoffice, at any rate. But when Uncle Sam attaches his name to a §nancial proposition, the same looks mighty at- tractive to a great many people. THH UNREALITY OF OPERA. From the London Times. There are people who still complain of the un- reality of opera, who cannot subject theniselves to its illusion. And indeed the illusion of opera breaks down if everything in it is not kept at the same distance from reality. In that world of musical expression we must never be suddenly lowered by any incongruous detail into the ordi- nary world of prose. Realism, the attempt to work upon the emotions by complete illusion of reality, is disastrous in opera. If the scene is a railway station we remember at once that people do not sing when they are catching trains. —— o- ’ pi aban nee as friends have a thousand attractions They are humorous and understand a joke. They are innocently mischievous and will play with their intimates. Moreover, they have a high sense of dignity. I remember a gray pony that could not bear to be laughed at. The boys of the fam- ily knew its weakness and used to go to his stall and laugh heartily. His fury and his flash- ing teeth, as he laid back and strained

*. —_—— ~~ -— See CONSERVATION OF RADIUM. From Consular Reports. Consul Albert Halstead of Birming- ham, transmits the following article from the Daily Post of that city con- cerning a radium safe: “A remarkable safe, the first of its kind ever construct” has been made by an English irm of safe makers for the British Raalum Corporation. It has been specially constructed for the stor- age and protection of radium, and though only about three feet in height it weighs a ton and a half. Great in- genuity has been exercised upon the ae- sign and construction in order to make it, as far as possible, proof against the skill of the most expert burglars and against all risks of loss by emanation. Experiments proved that practically the only metal which would withstand tne great penetrating power of radium ema- nations was lead, but as this was not at the same time burglar proof, the only solution was to construct a safe with an interior of lead and 1n exterior of steel. The interior shell was made of three-inch lead and the outer casement of a similar thickness of steel. Another difficulty was the fitting of the door to prevent the escape of any ray of light. This was secured by constructing a cir- cular lathe-turned door which has a “dead” fit, and has a specially ingenious contrivance fcr immediately remedying any wear and tear caused by opening anu shutting the door. Another safe- guard which had to be taken was to prevent loss of emanations when the door is opened. To overcome this two vaives have been fixed into the door through which tubes of mercury will be passed for the collection and storage of the emanations. ANSWERS OF ENGLISH PUPILS. From the Manchester Guardian. From the half timers’ papers written at a recent term examination: “Some of the chief inventions of the last 150 years are having an act so that no person under 14 years must go into the public house. Another act was so that no person under the age of 16 years must sm@ke cigars, pipes, and cigar- ettes, and no person under that age can be served with any. My brother Bill is now all right for this invention. He was 16 last week.” Here is & geography answer: “The river system of Canada is what you might call very good, but sometimes they shoot the rapids, and unless you are a red Indian this is very troublesome at times, es- pecially when you get sucked under like Captain Webb.” PREPARING FOR BUSINESS, From Puck. pe Willis: Does your son take to arith- metic?

ORIGINAL THINKER. A studious person can, by think- ing long enough, find reasons for almost anything. They will not be necessarily good reasons, but they will be presentable—like those of the young man who, in an examination, was asked, “Why will not a pin stand on its point?” He considered the proposition a long time, and then answered: “In the first place, a point ig de- fined by Euclid as that which has no parts, and no magnitude, and how can a pin stand on that which hath no parts and no magnitude? “In the second place, a pin will not stand o1 its head, much less, therefore, will it stand on its point. “Thirdty, and lastly, it vfll, if you stick it hard enough.”—Pearson’s.

Copyright, 1910, by the Press Publishing Co. .’? exclaimed the Widow, as she flung down the morn- in the big scarlet hammock, ‘‘there ought to be some Marquis of Queens- berry rules for the love game! All these suits for breach of promise are becoming a disgrace.to the ‘profession.’ It’s caddish and unsportsmanlike and cheap to make a scene just because you didn’t win in a love affair.’’ The Bachelor turned over in the grass, where he lay stretched at full length, and gazed up at her contemplatively. ‘<Do you mean to intimate,’’ he inquired, ‘‘that love is a ‘bout’ or a Johnson- Jeffries fight?’’ , ‘‘Tt’s a pitched battle of the sexes,’’ returned the Widow promptly, blowing a refractory curl out of her eyes. ‘‘It’s the most popular ‘sport’ of the twentieth century. In short, it’s a game—at which only the ‘game, should play! When you go in for a flirtation you know that you are taking a chance—gambling on yourself, as it were—and if you lose you should keep a stiff upper lip-and lose like a gentleman—or a gentlewoman. Making a fuss about it is as unbecoming and contemptible as ‘‘squealing’ after yuo have lost at bridge or poker or on the races.’’ ‘‘And if you drop your last dollar-—or your last illusion—on a long shot,’’ chimed in the Bachelor, ‘‘you should pay up and walk home without a whimper. But if you win’’ ‘¢You should try to appear modest and refrain from crowing,’’ finished the Widow firmly. ‘‘If there’s one thing I DO love it’s a sentimental ‘game sport’ who plays fom," * ‘‘But there’s the rub!’’ broke in the Bachelor. ‘‘Suppose your opponent It’s getting dangerous nowadays to look twice at a charming. woman. And a man worth over $20 has. to confine all his tender nothings to telephone talks to keep from putting them on paper. It gives me a cold chill every time I read a batch of ‘exhibit’ love notes in the morn- ing papers.’’ The Widow shrugged her dainty shoulders. ‘¢You should be more careful in seleeting your—your opponent,’’ she remarked lightly. ‘‘A man is usually exceedingly cautious about selecting a vis-a-vis at a card game, but enters the lists for a flirtation with any little fluffy thing who happens to come along. And it’s the same with a woman. The worse a man’s reputation as a flirt or a heart-breaker the more anxious she is to try her hand at beating him. But if she loses she cries for heart- balm and sues for $50,000 to cover the loss of a love that wasn’t worth 50 cents. She prays the court for revenge when you would fancy she would be down on her knees offering up a prayer of thankfulness to heaven for hav- ing been spared. In such a case ‘tis better to have loved and lost, you know, than to have loved and married.’’ oo ———— doesn’t play fair?

Sentiment is like colpgquantiae: cheap kind always comes in large quantities and fancy wale. : & During a love affair, when a man’s conscience begins to act, it is a sure sign that his heart is beginning to react. Before marriage a woman spends her days in waiting for a husband; after marriage she goes right along spending her nights in the same old occupation. Se From the kaleidoscopic career of the twentieth contury you would fancy that the one ambition of most men is to get a love affair as quickly, as gracefully and as often as possible. Most men are too broad-minded to narrow their thoughts down to one woman.

We should do kindly acts each day. The sage affirms That happiness is bought that way— On easy terms.

5 ‘The ancient “Elektra” has troubles of her own in trying to adapt herself to these modern “piping times of peace.’ A small, but patient audience waited wntil 9:15 Monday evening at Delmar Garden while she straightened out the tangled net of twentieth céxtury incon- Vénlences that confronted her. She. must have an urn for the sup- r ashes of her brother, Orestis. No gommon ura for such sacred ashes. The Modern department store was too slow in delivering the urn ordered late in the fternoon, so a hurry-up call had to be made to one of the pike Japanese cgn- fessions and a receptacle secured. Then, too, musicians must be had who could lay the ancient Greek instruments and aris to assist in the choral numbers. The girls balked at the last moment to appear in bare feet. “Greek girls in modem shoes! Never!’’ gaia Pappageorge, the manager. ‘Amer- fean twentieth century girls in barefoot and bare ankle, not on your life,”’ was the reply. So another set of choral girls had to be secured. A hurried re- , @ fixing of scenes, a trying out of musicians, all while the audience Waited, and then the play. "It seems a part of the Duncan sim- Let others do the worrying.

WIFE LEAVES TWO BABIES; HUSBAND'S CHUM GONE, 100 Bova Comes Home From Work to Find His Little Ones Deserted.

Leaving behind her two_ children— Philip, 5 years old, and J8sephine, 5 months—Mrs. Anna Bova, 25 years old, eloped with Tony Grema, who nosed as the best friend of her husband, Tony Bova. The couple are thought to have gone to New York, where Grema and Bova both lived a few years ago, and where they were acquainted. The affair has created a profound stir in the Italian colony in North St. Louis, and indignant neighbors in the vicinity of the Bova residence, 1238 North Eighth street, gathered on the sidewalks and in the courtyards of tenements, discussing the affair volubly, denouncing the young mother and expressing sympathy for the deserted husband. Husband Poor, Wife Reautiful, Tony Bova is a man of humble stand- resides, and when, seven years ago, he wooed, won and wedded beautiful Anna Bova, who was distantly related to him, and who was only 18 years old at the time, every swain in the colony envied him, for of all the girls in that sec- tion Anna Bova was considered queen. When Tony Grema came to St. Louis from New York he looked up his old friend, Tony Bova. Grema, a hand- some fellow, 2 years old now, was a barber in the neighborhood. He looked upon Tony Bova’s beautiful young wife and envied him. He was a frequent visitor at the house, but the young husband could not see the growing fondness between his wife and the min whom he considered his best friend, but the neighbors were more observant. Plans Well Made. Only last Sunday Grema was at the house. He admired the children, as usual, talked with the father and evi- dently managed to hold at least a hur- ried private talk with the mother, for their plans were well, if hastily, made. Tony Bova, the trusting husband, arose early Monday to go to his labor. ‘Scarcely had he left the house, at 6:30 a. m., when Mrs. Bova went to a neighbor. “I am going out this morning,’’ she said. .“‘Will you take care of my chil- dren until I return?’ and the neigh- bor said she would. Nobody knows just how it was done, but very’ soon afterward two trunks were taken from the house. Taking a photograph of little Philip—she had none of the baby—she kissed them good-by, turned them over to a neighbor and slipped from the huuse, taking with her $55 belonging to her husband. When Bova returned from work Mondag, night he realized, after a talk wth neighbors, what had be-

fallen him. He at once notified the police of the Carr Street Station and a& search was begun. : 509 /Washington Av., Near Broadway emodeling Sale!

By Leased Wire From the New York Bureau of the Post-Dispatch. NEW YORK, Aug. 2.—-Laura Jean Libbey, authoress, is appearing twice daily in a monologue telling the wil- ling ones just how to hitch up in double harness. The author-actress talks to an 4u- dience as though she believes in her heart and soul that all beyond the footlights are lovers. Some are, oth- ers have been, and from the general applause it was clear a great many expected to be. “I really think,” said the author of the love-throbs, “that most of our American girls are too shy. They ought to take a leaf out of the ‘Merry Widow's’ book and study it well. “ “When the dearest fellow in the world sits by the window, absorbed in thought, fully half an hour, while she sits on a sofa across the room, she

imagines he is studying out a way to propose. The pretty widow knows he is far and away from the sub- ject. “When it reaches the proposing climax the warm-hearted lover wants his sweetheart in his arms. He !s probably stugying how a $25-a-week clerk could keep up an automobile and a butler, to say nothing of pay- ing for frocks and frills. “A widow doesn’t give her admirer time to calculate. She’d be more apt to say: “‘are you thinking something sweet about me?’ “Of course he would have to answer yes, so she snuggles up a wee Dit closer and to save his life he never knows how it happened, but she’s say- ing sweet!y: ‘I’m yours, dearie.. The wedding can take place any cane. you wish.’ ”’ In her advice to the love-lorn Miss Libbey did not forget the widowers. She told her audience earnestly that she believed good men who had shown true appreciation of wedded life could love again, “as the tree buds and blossoms a second time.” She concluded her magnum of “Cupid Lore” with a poem entitled “Lovers Once, but Strangers Now.”

The Post-Dispatch is the only evening paper in St. Louis that receives or pub- lishes news gathered by the Associated Press. KREISMANN, STIFEL AND HOWE AT DINNER TOGETHER Axes. Buried at the Banquet Given in Honor of William L. Morseys Politicians who awaited the appear- ance of Otto Stifel, Jeptha D. Howe and Mayor Kreismann in their respec- tive haunts Tuesday were relieved of much apprehension when they saw that the leaders of the recent and still con- tinuing primary i:ight showed no marks of personal combat. All had been guests at the same table the night before. The occasion which brought them to- gether in person, though not in spirit, was the dinner given to William L. Morsey, retiring United States Marshal, in the roof garden of the Hamilton Hotel Monday evening. Hatchets were carefully concealed during the evening. Chairman Kiel was unable to be pres- ent. Marshal -Regenhardt, Morsey’s Successor, was absent because of the necessity of going to his home in Cape Girardeau for the primaries. The dinner was given by 125 friends of Col. Morsey on the occasion of his retirement from the office he has held for eight years. Judge Dyer, on behalf of the guests, presented an expensive

silver tea seFvice to Col. Morsey. The speakers of the evening were: Postmaster) Akins, Fred W. Lehmann, Judge Dyer, Vital W. Garesche, E. A. Rozier of Warmington, F. L. Schofield |of Hannibal, Charies P. Johnson, Clar- ‘ence Barnes of Mexico and Mayor Kreismann. Judge William M. Kinsey was toastmaster. THE BROWN SHOE COMPANY Make Big Gains and Are Optim- istic for Fall Trade. The shipments of The Brown Shoe Co. for the month of July amount to $893,- 509.80, which is a gain of $113,128.40 over the same month last year, and adds this amount to their already large gain in shipments for the year. The company feels that with the crops that are already assured and the good general prospects for corn’ and cotton and prospective good prices, neither Wall street calamity howlers or railroad stock manipulators can hold down prosperity or prevent an enor- mous fall business. The one hundred and thirty salesmen of the company will be at headquarters Aug. 10 to 15, and immediately get back to their respective territories with their new line of samples, which far excel anything the company has ever before
